BRANDENBURG, OCT. 30.—8 y the express
command of his Majesty there has been published
official information respecting the spirit and the
essence of the Builchenschryi (the Association of
the Students in the Gerunin Universities), ex-
tracted from the documentary evidence, and
principally intended as a warning to all Students
in the Prussian Universities. In this puhlica-

Lion it is affir►ued that this Association was
the blind tool of a Society which again was de-
pendent on another Society in a foreig,n country,—
a baud of most notorious individuals of different
nations,—a society which for many years has h►►d
in view the renewal and the greater diffusion of

Revolutions, and has employed every means to
effect [heat ; which took a decided part in
the Revolutions in Naples, Piedmont and
Spain, as well as iu several single insur-
rections, and strenuously ieuckavourvd to pro-
pagate them ; and which has for some years past
chosen Germany, and particularly the German
UniverAties, for the theatre of its odious and cri-
mina! tnauceuvres, and intended, as the docu-
ments prove, to commence with blood, and a sys-
tem of terrorism.

ll 4talllU num, Nov. 4:---The storm which we ex-
perienced here yesterday, after a continuance of
violent uorth.west winds for several days, was
accompanied with a flood, such as we have not
had for these 15 years, and laid all the lower
parts of the city under water. The damage done
to the shipping In the river was very great.—
Near the Oust a ship is sunk, of which
only the masts are sewn above water ; auo.
titer is stranded near Gluckstadt, and it is

not likely to be got off again, The Dutch ship
Henrietta Captain Abrams, bound to Amster-
dam, went to pieces off Cuxhaven, and it is
feared that both the crew and the family, which
was on board, perished. We are not yet ac-
quainted with the fate of the 23 ships, which
sailed from Cuxhaven the day before.---(Huas-
burgh Correspondent, Nov. b.)
IlAstauuun, Nov. s.—The Borsoultalle List
of this date gives thu names of 13 ship► which
sailed from Cuxhaven on the 2d, and had put
back to that port.
A letter from Twining of the 4th gives the
names of 20 vessels that had arrived there more
or less damaged on the 3d and 4th, and mentiong
several others that are supposed to be totally
lost ; six or seven others had arrived damaged at
Gnsthafen.

DIATII or LA RT. A NNESIAIN—TAO night diP(l,
at his lodging* on Clonliffe-road, RICITAAD Earl of AMNES-
IA:Y., Viscount (.11.EltAIYLY. and Baron CASTMEWILLAN, one
of his Majesty's Most Honourable Privy council, &c. &c. &c.
His Lordship was only the second son of the Earldom„ that title
having been conferred on his brother in the year 17119. His
Loldthip was called to the bar, from which he early withdrew,
and was for many years one of the Commissioners of his Ma-
jesty's Irish Revenue. He was, at the time he succeeded to
the title' and for souse years after, Chief Commissioner in the
Excise department—an office which he then vacated on full
salary, and retired to his seat at Castlewillan. Some months
since his Lordship was attacked by a mental complaint, which',
was of so serious a nature as to render medical assistance neces-
sary—antl Doctor Harty was selected to attend him as a person
of great experience in attacks of that nature. Doctor Harty
advised the removal of his patient to Dublin, where he might
have an opportunity of having him immediately under his eye.
His Lordship was very far advanced towards mental recovery,
when he was called upon to pay that debt which nature de-
mands from all.--His Lordship is succeeded in his title and
estates by his eldest son, Viscount Glerawly, now Earl of
Annesley. His Lordship is a batchelor he was married to
Lady St. Laurence, daughter of the late Earl of Howth, and
from whom he was divorced by Act of Parliament, we believe,
in 1820.—(Dublin .Evening Star, Nov. 10.)

Dispatches were received yesterday at the Fo-

Miss Robinson being taken ill on the road, they
stopped at the Hatfield Arms Inn, St. Alban's,
and sent an apology to the Earl and Countess.
However, the young Lady recovered, and yester-
day they proceeded to Gorhambury.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER left Lon-

Exchequer, after the nomination of the Sheriffs,
and proceeded on his way to Gorhambury.

THE THEATRE.

COVEYT•GARDEN.-It has been lately the
practice of some of the public critics of the day
to ridicule the productions of the elder British
Dramatists, except SITAKSPEAUE, to represent
them as obsolete ste, and to give the paha to
Modern Genius. But the revival of the old Co-

inedy of A New Wunder, A krontnn Netter
Vext, Enust, if they have liberal minds,
convince them of the folly of their opi-
nions. This Comedy was represented for the
third time last night, and evidently with in-
creased attraction. Much of its success, no

doubt, arises from the admirable manner in which
six of the chief characters are supported by C.
KEMBLE, YousG, COOPY.II, BLANCHARD, Miss
STEIt, and Miss LACY, 110 r 511001 d We omit
EnEwrox, for the gravity and feeling which
mark his acting, or that of BARTLEY and
KI:EI.Y. NV kit such excellent support a Comedy
of inferior pretensions might he expected to suc-
ceed, but the play is intrinsically good. The chn.
rasters aro well drawn, and judiciously opposed.
The plot is probable, interesting, and affecting.
The dialogue is terse, pithy, and humorous, and,
different as the manners were at the time when it
was written, are applicable to the passing day. in
fact the Managers by the revival of this Comedy,

have presented a good treat to the intellectual
part of the town, and by their exhibition of an
ancient Lord Itlayore Day, afford a feast for

the public in getteral, as well as to the visitors
of the Galleries.

NUWIIPAPER It EPORTI.—The efficacy, utility,
and Importance of these Puoue RILPORTS, when
faithfully given, without a mixture of the Raid-
dry of the Reporter, to render his narrations
entertaining, cannot be better illustrated than In
the words of that shrewd, intelligent active add
liberal-minded Magistrate, Sir RICHARD BIRNIti,
as stated in a paper yesterday
few days ago, Sir RicstaaD Btu w lg. Chief Magistrate
of Police, and perhaps the most experienced man in the com-
mission of the peace in this Metropolis, in the course of
a conversation at the office in Bow-street, with a County
Magistrate (Mr. Beckett), upon the subject of Police Re-
ports, expressed himself in nearly the following words
I am a strong friend to Police Reports when they are fairly and
properly given. I know that they do an infinite deal of good.
I know that their publication often leads to communications
of the greatest importance, which would never otherwise be
obtained : 1 know that many a dangerous criminal has been
brought to justice, who, but for the publication of his
case, which has brought forth evidence that could not pre-
viously be obtained even by the greatest exertions, would
have been again let loose to follow his course of depredation
upon the public: I know, also, that many unfortunate beings,
who were driven by the pinching hand of poverty to the com-
mission of theft, have, in consequence of the mention of their
cases,
_received the donations of the benevolent, and have been
rescued from want and misery, and enalibal to provide for
themselves perhaps for the remainder of their days. In fact, I
conceive that upon general grounds, the newspaper, do great
public good by publishing such reports, so long us the task of
furnishing them Is intrusted to men of integrity and competent
