The regalia of the Austrian empire were taken from
the Jewel-office on the 22d, and sent under an escort to Prague.
The German and the Hungarian Noble Guard set out for
14rague to-morrow and the day following.—German Paper.
A most horrible murder was committed on the 25th
ult., at 10 at night, near Montelimart, on the high road from
Lyons to Marseilles, of which the following are the particu-
lars :—" M. Alibert, master of the inn called La Bonne
Denree, about a quarter of a league from Montelimart, was
taking a glass with another landlord at the entrance of the last
named town, when two Italians came in, and after singing some
of their songs, went round to collect what the company pre-
sent chose to give them. Alibert gave them 3 sous, but in
doing so took nut a bag containing 400 francs in silver. The
itinerant vocalists withdrew, and Alibert shortly afterwards set
out on his way home. The next morning a dealer in melons,
in going from Montelimart, observed a man lying in a ditch,
but, being in haste, passed on without ascertaining whether he
was dead or alive. On reaching the Bonne Denree he told
hostess what he had seen, and she immediately feared it was
the body of her husband, as he had not come home in the even-
ing, as expected. In fact, it was found to be that of Alibert.
The skull was fractured, and every sous of his money had been
taken from him. No doubt remained that the deed was done
by the two Italians, as the end of a stick which one of them
had carried was found on the spot. The two singers had a
passport, and were going to Bayonne to enrol themselves in
the Foreign Legion. One of them was a sapper in the Nea-
politan army. It does not appear that they have yet been taken."
On Wednesday a young man entered a lodging-
house in the Rue Froidmanteau, and, although of fashionable
dress and manners, hired only a small cabinet without any
chimney, in which he was installed with his luggage, consist-
ing only of a small bundle. Having given his name as Paul,
a journeyman jeweller, aged 17, and declined giving his pass-
port, as he meant to remain but one night, he locked himself in
his new apartment. He remained without appearance till so
late an hour on Thursday morning, that the landlord became
alarmed, and sent for the Commissary of police. On the door
being forced open, the youth was found lifeless, having suffo-
cated himself with charcoal, which he had brought, not only
in his bundle, but his pockets, and the crown of his hat. In a
part of the cabinet was discovered a phosphorus box and some
matches, with which he had lighted the charcoal. As there
were no papers or other means to discover who he was, his
body was carried to the Morgue.—Galignani's Messenger.
The epicures at Vienna are in great spirits at the
premium offered by Government for the importation of foreign
wines, at very moderate duties, into the Austrian dominions.
Champagne, which has been hitherto almost unapproachable,
may then be had cheaply. This measure is intended as a set-
off against the proceedings of the Prussian league, which Aus-
tria will not join.
Railroads are not unknown in Russia. One has
just been completed, and will be opened in October next, from
St. Peterburgh to Zarkejeleso, and Pawiosk ; and in the spring
two others are to be commenced from the capital to the impe-
rial residences of Peterhoff and Oranienbaum. M. Gerstner,
the engineer of these works, who has been to England to im-
prove himself in these matters, thinks that it will be an im-
provement to attach some sort of brush or scraper to the front
of the engine, so as to clear the rails from any accidental dust,
small stones, or other obstructions. The same suggestion, it
will be recollected, was made, without any concert with the
German engineer, by Professor Lardner, in his recent lecture
at Bristol.

The house General Larrin, at the Sarrot, in the
Pyrenees, was lately struck by lightning, which was attracted
by a weather-cock, and made its way, without injuring the
roof or ceiling, into the second-floor, where it broke 18 looking
glasses, placed there to reflect the Pyrenees, and then was
conducted by the bell-wires, which it broke, into the first-
floor, where there were two English gentlemen, who had come
to hire the apartment. One was seated in an arm-chair, the
ornamental nails of which drew the lightning to it; but the
occupant escaped with the loss of his hat, which he held be-
tween his knees, and was burnt, a few slight excoriations on
the thigh and nose, and the singing of a lock of his hair and
one of his whiskers. The other gentleman, who had taken
his seat on a sofa, was untouched.

Near Oakford farm, in the parish of Colerne, there
is a hop-plantation, five acres in extent, the property of I. I.
Horlock, Esq. The ground was planted about three years
ssnce; and this season the bine 'presents a luxuriant appear-
ance, and will be ready for picking in a few days. We be-
lieve that this is the only instance in which the experiment of
hop-growing has been tried in the county, and as the plant
thrives so well, we have no doubt that the subject will excite
the attention of the Wiltshire farmers generally.—Devizes
Gazette.

PRUSSIA AND RUSSIAN COMMERCE.—FRANK-
FORT, AUGUST 26.—The provinces of the cast and west of
Prussia wait with much impatience for the result of the nego-
tiation opened at St. Petersburgh for the conclusion of the
new treaty of commerce between Russia and Prussia, the last,
of the year 1825, having expired, and being only renewed for
one year. In consequence of the prohibition in Russia and
Prussia the trade in wood and grain is ruined in the frontier
provinces of Prussia—the welt-being of the inhabitants has
disappeared with it ; and want and misery has come to such an
extent as few can form an idea of. The value of land is di-
minished at least two-thirds, and, even at that reduction, it is
difficult to find buyers. The town of Elbing, which has a po-
pulation of 16,000 souls, is in such a state of wretchedness that
it has been obliged publicly to declare that its municipal re-
sources did not allow it to light the streets, and that, in fact, it
should cease lighting up the few lantherns which had hitherto
been used. There is no other way of reviving these countries
than by an equitable treaty of commerce with Poland and Rus-
sia, or by an alteration in the corn laws of England. The
Russian diplomacy has, it is true, a great superiority in all ne-
gotiations with foreigners. Our merchants long since have
found out that to their cost. All the commercial connections
concluded from 1819 to 1895 have been to the advantage of
Russia. This supremacy proves that the Russian diplomatists
add the French suppleness to the decision of the inhabitants
of the north. Their Government, moreover, does not allow
itself to be affected by the nationality of its agents. The Go-
vernment seeks and employs talent wherever it can find it.

" Why don't you get your ears cropped ?" cried a
lusty mark-gardener's carman to a long-eared Milesian, who
was trudging along at a swingeing pace with a load on 1115
head the other day in the Garden ; " they're a precious sight
too long for a man." Are they ?" said Pat, with a grunt,
turning round and looking his assailant full in the face, then
by Jabers yours are too short for an ass.".

ANECDOTE.--Professor Buckland, in a speech de-
livered at the late Bristol Meeting, told a curious anecdote
of the late Dr. Beddoes, which the friends of the teetotal
system think might as well have been spared. Dr. Beddoes,
he said, had made the diseases of females his peculiar study,
and observed that nervous affections were a fruitful source ?f
illness. This nervousness he was convinced had its origin :us
certain electrical changes, and that these changes were accele-
rated by a practice which in his day, and he feared it bad not
diminished, was very prevalent, that of drinking strong greed
tea.----( Laughter.) To demonstrate this to his patients, an
considering that to preserve human life was an object that
would excuse cruelty to frogs, he determined upon keeping a
few frogs in a pond of green tea, and exhibiting to his P,B"
tients the nervous system that would shortly be induced. 1°
his friend, Mr. Ashwell, of Colebrooke Dale, he wrote, re'
questing him to procure 10,000 frogs, which was done; they
were packed in a sugar hogshead, and with other packages
were forwarded to Bristol. The other packages containing
ironmongery, required to be raised by a crane, and as there
was no difference in the appearance of the packages when the
hogshead containing the frogs was hoisted, it flew up to the
top of the crane, broke, and out in a moment, upon the Qual
of Bristol, leaped 10,000 frogs This was the agitated perioe
of the French revolution, and the Doctor had entered upon O
stormy discussions of the day with all the zeal of an interested
partisan. No sooner, then, had the frogs leaped out, wiled
the mob, little dreaming of the connection between frogs en
green tea, electricity and nervousness, jumped to the 0:111;
elusion that, because the Doctor wanted frogs, he must heco
Frenchmen in his house, and that these Frenchmen werto
bloody-minded revolutionary Jacobins, who had come over a
kill the King and upset the Government. They determined
to prevent that mischief by setting fire to Dr. Beddoes' house'
a determination which it required all the eloquence of auothe
physician to prevent.
