convincing proef that his strenuous and never-tiring exertions
to render the Royal Vietoria Theatre the first minor establish-
ment of the metropolis, has been crowned with that trium-
phant success which his best friends and numerous supporters
could never have anticipated to have been so fully and sub-
stantially realized, as every night's success must make palpable
to the most common observer. Mr. OSBALDISTON also
begs to announce, that all parties having tickets or checks,
who were unable, in consequence of the immense pressure, to
obtain entranceinto the theatre on TUESDAY, November 23d,

POUE/GIV.

France is in a dreadfully disturbed State. how the
very frame-work of society can resist the shocks which
it receives in so many quarters is surprising." But the
riots at Macon, at Clermont, and at Paris on Saturday
and Sunday nights—of which full details are given in
another part of The Sun—are fur the moment forgotten
in the general indignation at tho atrocious attempt to
assassinate one.of the French Princes. The name of
this NaTtch -is Nicholas Papart. He is about twenty-
seven years of age, and supposed to be merely the agent
of one of the secret societies. Fortunately fur the
Royal family
.of France, French assassins are as bad
shots as the Irishman who fireal at a hay stack at ten
paces distant, and missed it ! A jury of sportsmen
would hang them for the abuse of their weapons.
In the riot at Macon four parsons were killed, two.
mortally wounded, and
six very severely injured.
Orders were given by the Mayor for the closing of all
the coffee-houses at six o'clock in the evening.
The seizure of the Notional fur stating in its article
relative to the disturbance at Macon, that the Govern-
' [tient neglects no opportunity of habituating the troops
to shed the blood of the people," is indignantly- com-
mented upon by that journal. It contends, that had it
told all the truth, the account would have been far less
palatable to the Court.
A report was circulated in Paris and Madrid that
the French Government was about to send the Count
de Flahaut Ambassador to Spain, because an Ambassador
has the privilege of delivering letters into the hands of the
Sovereign, and thus Christina could communicate di-
reedy with her daughters. We cannot believe that
King Louis Philippe will lend his name to this foul
atiempt against the Spanish Government. It is impos-
sible that he should concur in a scheme for poisoning the
young Queen's mind against the only men in Spain who
have shown themselves capable of saving the Throne
and :he Constitution.

'We learn from Philadelphia that much excitement has
been caused in the United States by the imprisonment
of Mr. Cross, the American Consul at Matanzas, in
Cuba, by order of the Spanish authorities. It appears
that Mr. Cross divided the property of an American
woman who died there without malOnr, a will among
.her relatives. This property was claimed by the Spanish
authorities, to be distributed awording to Spanish law,
and for resisting them the Governor-General ordered
Mr. Cross to be imprisoned. Mr. Cross has demanded
the protection of his Government, and the affair is likely
to produce some noise, which may sound unpleasantly in
Madrid.

bitiona of tnischierciti4 agitators.
The Post takes the.satho erronPons view of the object
of the nicotine-, but at the same timd, does it with some
more regard to propriety and common setISC. "It ap-
lit'afs,"-sti.Y3 that Journal; " that a small proportion of
th•-.. inhabitant* of Manchester, Cuitticiy heitten five and
six hundred, have sent a requisition to the llf.n.lor of the
town for the holding of a political meeting the day' Nfter
to-morrow. The object of this meeting is stated to be to
takes into consideration the distressed state of the town
Red neighbourhood, and the expediency of petitioning
the Queen that the Parliament may not be prorogued
until a full discussion has
.been had of the Corn and
Provision-laws'---laws which; PA the opinion of the re-
quisitionists, are the main cause of the p7evailing distress..
IVe have no doubt that the Government wit_ll give
s.tover
its anxious and sympathizine• attention to
authentic representations inay'be made of the distress 0f

meut will probably be very well disposed to (Id that

individuals as t itw be citspdtti id dd practical

think ths opinion of the requisitionists as to the cause t 4
the distress is likely to make such impression upon the
Government, or upon any oite of good §ttiO
discretion. This declaration of opinion is a mere pttftt
matter, having about as much to do with sound judgment,
founded upon a careful consideration of well-ascertained
facts, as the declaration of Mr. Cobden has to do with
molestv, correctness, and propriety.
The 3./Toeni:tg Advertiser alludes to the painful state of
the labouring classes at Stockport, and the expected
turn out of factory hands on the part of two or three
large manufacturing establishments, in consequence or
the anticipated reduction of prices—a reduction to ac-
tually one-half of their present miserable pittance of
nine or ten shillings a week. The source of this evil
exists, says the Advertiser, in the present redundancy of
population. Strength, vigour, and Skill, are by this
cause rendered valueless., The evil, too, will spreall, and
not stop. Rapid extension of machinery will create a
greater superabundance still, and 'this, therefore, is the
malady which State-doctors must first of all reach, and
expel, if the public constitution is to hope for anything
like restoration to health.

ROB ROY'S GRAVE.

It is seldom now-a-days, that we hear of the sepul-
chres of the dead being violated ; but a case of a pe-
culiar kind lately occurred in the remote parish of Bal-
quhidder. One morning, about three weeks ago, the
peaceful inhabitants of that beautiful place were shocked
at finding that the parish burial-ground had been dese-
crated during the previous night by some miscreants,
and that the grave of the famous " Rob Roy" had
been violated. Many of our readers will recollect that
the grave of the celebrated outlaw is situated near the
east end of the church. A large stone, of rather un-
chiselled aspect, and having a broadsword, a star, and
other insignia, rudely carved on it, covers Rob's resting-
place. This stone, which, from its weight, must have
required the united strength of at least two persons to
displace it, had been removed, and the earth digged
up to the depth of some three or four feet. The
motive for committing so gross an outrage is
supposed to have been the desire of possessing
the bone?, or rather some relics of the bones,
of the celebrated outlaw—whose name and deeds the
Novelist has so widely published. If such were the
motive, the spoliators have undoubtedly been (ideated
in their object ; for, independent of the decay which
the lapse of time must have wrought on the skull and
thigh, and arm-bones of their once muscular owner,
several other M'Oregors have since been interred in the
same narrow house, and one so lately as eight years
ago. Thus the ashes of various M'Gregors have
mingled with those of their famous clansman ; and he
must be both a curious and skilful antiquary and anato-
mist who can now speak to any of the stolen scraps as
veritable relies of the redoubted outlaw. Meanwhile,
the possessors of any such would better be cautious
how they declare the fact, else they may find that these
compound M'Gregor relics will tell a tale against them
which they little expect. The clergyman of the parish,
so soon as the circumstances became known, sent in-
formation to a neighbouring Justice of the Peace ; and
we understand that the proper authorities have made
an investigation into tho whole circumstances of the
case.—Stirling Journal.

ELECTION OF SIR WILLIAM FOLLETT,

EXETER, SEPT. 13.—This was the day appointed for
the election of a Member, in consequence of Sir W.
Follett having taken office. The election was fixed to
be holden in the Guildhall at ten o'clock. The hall will
hold about 600 or 700 persons when densely filled.
The High Sheriff (Henry Hooper, Esq.) entered the
hall just before ten, accompanied by the Under-Sheriff.
The business having been opened, Sir W. Follett was
greeted with hearty cheering by his friends; and the
preliminaries having been all completed,
JOHN CAREW, Esq., the Mayor, rose to propose Sir W.
Follett, which he did in a temperate and able speech.
'J. B. SANDERS, Esq, seconded the nomination, and
both proposer and seconder were received with cheers.

BOW-STREET.

Wm. Fagan, a tall athletic Irishman, was placed at
the bar before Mr. Hall, charged with breaking and da-
maging several plants, the property of Mr. Goodson, of
Covent-garden.
The prisoner it appeared was a reaper, and had just
arrived from the country ; he bad got drunk, and had
chosen a bed of flowers in Covent-garden Market, there-
by causing damage to the said flowers tO the amount of 6s.
This being proved,

The MAGISTRATE ordered him to pay the amount of
the damage.
The prisoner declared he had not a farthing in the
world.

The MAGISTRATE told him if he could not pay the
amount, he must be locked up.
The prisoner said he could not pay it, and he was taken
away. In a short time he came back, and said he had
" accidentally" found 6s. in his pocket.—(Laughter.)

Mr. HALL.—Have you any more money about you ?
Prisoner—No, your Honor's wortship ; I was quite sur-
prised I bad that.—(Laughter.)
Mr. HALL—I do not want any more from you, but I
think you must have some more about you.
Prisoner (laughing—Well, your honor's wortship, I've
got 2s. more, but, by the blessed truth, that's all.—
(Laughter.)
Mr. HALL said it was astonishing to find the ingenuity
displayed by persons of the prisoner's class in hiding
money. The prisoner bad been searched in the station-
house, and no money was found upon him ; and now he
" accidentally" found some money in his pocket. But,
however, as the amount of the damage had been paid, the
prisoner might be discharged.
The prisoner then left the Court, apparently highly
amused.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

i tip Jloaiteztr of Tuesday punlisnes a 7.lopii
ordinance, sending Jean Nicholas Pappard
for trial before the Court of Peers, fbr an
attempt against the lives of the Dukes of
Orleans, Nemours, and Aumale. This-ordinance
occasioned uneasiness in Paris, because of its
encouraging the belief that the crime originated
in political motives. The public and the press
were unanimous in execrating the assassin, whose
attempt, if the Bourse be a criterion, tended to
raise rather than depress public confidence. Per-
haps, also, the firmness of the stock-market ‘% as
party- ascribable to a report that the Duke of
Bordeaux was dead.

The dinner given by the King to the 17th re-
giment and other soldiers, amounting to 6,000
men, passed off admirably on Monday night. in
the course of the King's speech his Majesty said,
that he regarded Algeria as one of the great na-
tional interests of Frnce.

The illoniOur contains the following telegraphic
despatclt, dated Toulon, thelitla inst.:—"The situ-
ation of the western provinces of Algeria is con-
stantly improving; 10,000 Medjehers have joined
us, and, thanks to them, Mostaganem is amply
supplied with provisions. The submisssionof the
Bordgias, who have sentin hostages, is considered
as likely to take place very soon, and their ex-
ample will necessarily be followed by the Garra-
has. The Arabs who had abandoned our douoirs
and smelas are asking for leave to return. There is
no longer any mention ofAbd-el-Kader, who does
not oppose those desertions, and it is hence inferred
that the autumn campaign will completely ruin
his power. There is nothing new from Mahon."

say. Several gentlemen in Palmyra, who saw and cm:-
versed with him frequently, thinks he was labouring under
a sort of mcnomonia, and that he thoroughly believed
all that Joe Smith chose to tell'him on this sulfject. Ile
was so much in earnest on the subject, that lie imme-
diately started off with some of the manuscripts that
Smith furnished him, on a journey, to New York an:l
Washington to consult some learned. men, to ascertain
the nature of the language in which this record was en-
graved. Martin had now become a perfect believer. He
said he had no more doubt of Smith's commission than
of the Divine commission of the Apostles. The very
fact that Smith was an obscure and illiterate man,
showed that he was acting under divine impulses. That
he was willing to " take of the spoiling of his good," to
sustain Smith in carrying on this work of the Lord,
and that he was determined that the book should be
published, though it consumed all his worldly sub-
stance. It was in vain I endeavoured to expostulate. I
was an unbeliever, and could not see far off. Whether at
this time Smith had those colleagues that certainly after-.
ward moved unseen the wheels of this machinery, I am

unable to say. Even after Cowdrey and Rigdon were
bending the whole force of their minds to the carry-
ing out of the imposture, Joe Smith continued to be
the ostensible prominent actor in the drama. The way
that Smith made his transcripts and translations for
Harris, was the following :—Although in the same
room, a thick curtain or blanket was suspended be-
tween them, and Smith, concealed behind the blanket,
pretended to look through his spectacles, or transparent
stones, and would then write down or repeat what he
saw, which, when repeated aloud, was written down by
Harris, who sat on the opposite side of the blanket.

Harris was told it would arouse the most terrible Divine
displeasure, if he should attempt to draw near the
sacred chest, or look at Smith while engaged in the act
decyphering the mysterious characters. This was
Harris's own account of the matter to me. What other
measures they afterwards took to transcribe or translate
from these metallic plates, I cannot say, as I very soon
after this removed to another field of labour, where I
heard no more of the matter till I learned the Book of
Mormon was about being published. It was not till
after the discovery of the manuscript of Spaulding, that
the actors in this imposture thought of calling this pre-
tended revelation of the Book of Mormon. This book,
which professed to be a translation of the golden Bible
brought to light by Joseph &I:kith, was published in
1830, to accomplish which Martin Harris actually mort-
gaged his farm.

STEAM-BOAT ACCADENT.

Abouttwelye o'clodit yesterday morning an accident,
which had 'neatly been of a very serious natnre, occurred
to the iron steam=boat, Moonlight, running from London.,
bridge to Chelsea., The boat was on its journey up
tire tiveh and luid Called at the Blaeltfriarsdbridge Pier
to receive some passengers, when she Started and.pro-
ceeded through the second arch on the City side. Upon
coming opposite Messrs, Capel's coal wharf, and against
which several barges of coals are lying, the Moonlight
came with, a shoch against the bow of the middle barge
of three, containing about four rooms of coals, forcing
the stern of the barge upon the head of one in the next
tier. The number of craft being about twenty, and close
together, produced an effect not anticipated, for the col-
lision was followed by a loud crash, and the whole of the
right side of the paddle-box and flappers of the wheel
was seen to fall into the water, The Moonlight becom-
!ng immanagable swung round, but those on board, with
great presence of mind, threw out some ropes, which
were caught by the coal-porters at work on the barges,
and the steamer was pulled up alongside. The accident
being seep by those at the pier the steam-boat Bachelor
wiss sent tip, and toolt the whole of the passengers, about
eighty' In tininbei', 011 board. An attempt was after-
wards made to move the damaged boat, but it was found
impossible, and the steam was in consequence discharged.

THE REVENUE SQUADRON, BELFAST
LouGu, SEPT. 6.—This day, says a Correspondent, we
were most highly gratified by the interesting and novel
spectacle of the revenue fleet of 14 cruizers, manoeuvring
under Commander Doumbraine, whose flag or pendant
was on boatd the Royal Shamrock. I could hardly re-
frain to hazard an opinion touching their sailing qualifi-
cations individually ; but it appears they are all built so
9,s to combine three grand points in their formation—
viz., swiftness, strength, and beauty ; swiftness to over-
take an enemy, strength to weather the gales that fre-
quently visit our shores, and beauty of formation so as
to afford accommodation.—United Service Gazette►

LAW AND POLICE,
George Heath, not long since a master bricklayer,
employing many hands, was on Monday brought up at
Worship-street, charged with stealing twenty-one plates,
engraved with religious music. The prisoner appeared
before the Court last Thursday, but was then liberated,
the plates not being traced to him, and his respectability
being in his favour. On Saturday, however, a marine-
store dealer to whom he had sold the plates, received a
letter from him, begging him to destroy them, as.he had
taken them, urged by deep distress ; the letter was now
delivered to the Magistrate. The prisoner was coin•
mitted to Newgate for trial.
James Mattall, a boy 12 years of age, and of de-
plorable appearance, appeared on a charge of begging.
His mother stated in his defence, that she, her blind
husband, and four children, lately arrived from Glas-
gow, were penniless and starving, and the boy went out
to procure the slightest help. One child of the four had
died but yesterday, and, according to her statement, the
police found the poor blind man sitting over the dead
body. The Magistrate gave her some silver, and desired
her to call again in a few days.

GUILDHALL.

Sarah Mole, a well-known character at this office.
was placed at the bar before Sir PETER LAURIE, charged
with breaking seven squares of glass, the property of Mr.
Wm. Fryer,
The complainant stated that he carried on business
as a tobacconist, at 14, Smithfield-bars. About two months
Ago the prisoner was sentenced to two months imprison-
ment for the same offence, when she said the moment
she came out she would break them again ; and yester-
day she kept her promise, for she lingered about his
door, and although closely watched by the police, she
managed in less than a quarter of a minute to break the
seven squares of glass.
Sir I'. LAuniE said he would sentence the prisoner to
one, month's imprisonment.
Mr. Fryer said there was another pi rson present
whose windows the prisoner broke so as to put him to
the expense of 30s. The punishment was totally ina-
dequate, and he hoped the Alderman would do some-
thing to protect the public against such a character.
Sir P. LAURIE said that an imprisonment of one
month was found to be a greater punishment than of two
months. Such was the opinion of the Governor of the
gaol. He regretted that the law di I not allow him to
punish the prisoner as she deserved.
Mr. Lark appeared to prefer a complaint for over-
charging the carriage of a parcel from Canterbury to
London, against Mr. Stainsbury, the extensive carrier.
The complainant stated that on the 6th,, of September
a parcel, weighing 131 b., was forwarded to him from
Canterbury by one of the defendant's vans, with a ticket
charging Is. 6cl. for carriage. Considering the charge
exorbitant, be went to the waggon-office, where he met
a person:whom he supposes to be Mr. Stainsbury, who
told him the charge was proper. On inquiry at Canter-
bury he found that the parcel was booked for ls., and
upon its arrival in London an additional 6d. was put on.
In a few days after' he received a parcel from the same
place, weighing 631 b., for which he was only charged Is.
As he was in the habit of sending a large number of
parcels to the country, he considered it necessary to
bring the matter forward, both for his own and for the
protection of the public.
A person in the employ of Mr. Stainsbury, who ap-
peared to answer the summons, said that his master con-
sidered himself entitled to put on the additional charge
of 6d. as a carrier, if he thought such ought to be the
amount of carriage.

Sir PETER LAURIE said there was no law of which he
was aware, empowering a Magistrate to interfere with
carriers in cases like the present, but he considered that
an employer ought to be bound by the acts of his ser-
vants, and where Is. was charged in Canterbury, he
thought the addition of 6d. in London savoured a little
of extortion. He could not interfere as a Magistrate,
but his advice to the defendant would be to settle the
matter.
