portant. The Auditor of War had asked leave of the
Chamber of Deputies to prosecute two of its members
for an assault committed by them on the editor of a

of 57 against 36, had authorised the raising of three
millions of dollars at six per cent., at par, on the mort-
gage of some branches of the revenue.

GERMANY.

Letters from Berlin, of the 28th ult., state that de-
spatches, received from Councillor Bunson, men=
tioned that the Court of Vienna was desirous of
forming a Confederacy of Christian Powers for the
protection of the Christian population in the East,
and that France and Great. Britain were equally
favourable to such a plan, and were of opinion that as the
Sultan was unable to prevent the oppression of the Sul-
tan's Paellas, it would be advisable that the Allies should
send Commissioners to Syria to watch the conduct of the
Turkish authorities.

The Augsburgh Gazette announces that M. Guizot
had given to the London Conference the most satisfac-
tory explanations respecting M. Piscatory's mission to
Athens, which, it would appear, was quite unconnected
with any desire to excite the Greeks to co-operate with
the insurgents in the Turkish provinces.
According -to the same Journal, Lord Palmerston had
remonstrated with the Greek Government on its alleged
interference on behalf of the Candiot insurgents. The
French Cabinet, it was thought, would shortly follow
the example of Great Britain.

PEEL THE EMPIRIC.

DEFINITION OF A QuAc3C.—A Quack—a boastful pre-
tender to arts which he does not understand. A Quack—one
who proclaims his own medical abilities in public places. A
Quack—an artful, tricking practitioner.—See English Dic-
tionary, and the Tamworth speech.

And if a man did need a poison now
Here lives a caitiff wretch would sell him it.
Romeo and Juliet

There are strange things spring up now-a-days,
There's Peel—'tis the strangest of any—
Whose proper vocation you know
Was to manage the spindle and jenny,—
Late has clapped on a big powdered wig
And a suit of atrocious deep sable,
And swears he has got all the cures
In the pharmaeopceical table.

But before he his practice begins
Or poisons, or punctures, or throttles,
He arrays with true doctorly skill
His phalanx of flame-coloured bottles.
You may see them superbly arranged
Any one of these fine summer evens,
If you'll just take the trouble to peep
At his physic-shop down at Stephen's.
Doctor Feel sought a patient, and soon
With his card upon sickly John, Bull ho
Made a call—cried his medicals down—
rn-2,linfry.u.Shincr, nrsi,k.th-ttignAti)
Spoke abuse of his last doctor—Russell,
Breaded of speed—symptoms—physic and death•
Said he'd save him—and left in a bustle.

Doctor Peel to his surgery sped,
And loftily chuckled when so/us,
There concocted with true quackish skill
First, a draught, then a " No Reform " bolus.
" Mustn't let go my practice," quoth Peel ;
" Must reduce and bleed Bull's' constitution,.
Just allow him to gasp and to breathe,
But—no word of ' complete restitution.'

But, parblez Doctor Peel the next day
Calling, caught John delicionsly greeting
Cups of well-sugar'd coffee and rum,
While 4 chicken's white wing he was eating—
" Sacre Dieu !" cried the Doctor, prophaned,
" Rare ..food that. for you, my fine jewel 1
Fowl, indeed ! no, no, black: bread and grits
I alone can allow, with grey gruel."
t` I'll be whipt"—said John Bull in a tiff
'(For John's stomach will very soon rumble)
If your quackship shall reign over me ;"--7
While he rose with a growl and a grumblo :
High the old lion lifted his paw,
Swung in fury, then, with' a loud roar, he
Spurned the. Quack—sent for Russell again—
And owned him " salvation and glory."

Harrah ! There's some hope for John Bull
Now the Quack is consigned to perdition,
That again he'll wax jocund and full,
And be rosy and plump of condition ;
For the Quack is in Tophet—and " John"
Is on diet, now, choice and nutritious,
And Russell will make all his days 4°
Thrice-salubrious, sweet, and delicious.

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.
CORN EXCHANGE.

The supplies of ;lost descriptions of Grain this week have
been tolerably good. The heavy rains have produeed much
excitement in the Wheat trade, and English parcels have ob-
tained Is. to 2s. per quarter advance, and Bonded 3s. to 4s. on
Monday's prices ; but the weather having become dry, the
trade has dosed dull. In other Grain no variation in prices,
and trade firm. Flour has meta fair demand this week.

HORSLYDOWN REGATTA.

This wager took place yesterday, but ended in a man-
ner very discreditable to those engaged in it. After four
heats had been got through wiih a great deal of contro-
versy and fouling, Henry Hopkins (pink) and George
Radford (green) made a second start at dusk for the
grand or final heat. They fouled shortly after starting,
and on a sudden Hopkins 's boat was seen bottom upper-
most, its occupant being immersed in the water, from
which he was rescued in two or three minutes, and car-
ried, in a very precarious state, to a neighbouring pub-
lic-house. It was too dark, and there were too many
boats around for us to distinguish the reason of the cap-
size, and different causes were assigned. Radford, after
the unexpected stoppage of the other, rowed the dis-
tance, with his boat half full of water, to claim the first
prize. At the time our reporter left, all was confusion,
and the police were busily employed in endeavouring to
quell the rioting and fighting which were going on, much
to the disgrace of those concerned, and to the annoyance
of the neighbourhood.
A regatta upon a rery grand scale is to take place
above the bridges on the 17th inst., the cost of which is
to be defrayed by the proprietors of the Father Thames
steam-packet plying upon the river. A purse of sove-
reigns and other prizes will be given on the occasion, to
be rowed and sailed for by free watermen. Various
other amusements arc to take place, and several steamers
are engaged to take the numerous friends of the Directors
who will be invited to witness the sports, and to partake
of the hospitality of those gentlemen.

TURKEY.

Accounts from Constantinople of the 17th ult. state
that a report had been received from Mustapha Pa-
elm announcing that five engagements had taken
place at Czusus between the 'lurks and the insur-
gents, and three at Candia, which had all terminated
to the advantage of the former. The inhabitants of the
neighbourhood of Candia had submitted. The Ottorban
army had advanced to Spakia ; 600 muskets had already
been surrendered by the insurgents. Protection was
afforded to the families of the latter, and their property
guaranteed. Na excesses whatever had been committed
by the Albanians, as -falsely reported.
The celebrated ltedschid Pacha has been appointed the
Ottoman Minister at Paris. Redschid Pacha was to quit
Constantinople for France towards the middle of August.
There is a talk of a marriage between one of the Sul-

MORNING SUN.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

FRANCE.

The Moniteur of Wednesday contains no intelli-
gence from Toulouse, but the Moniteur Parisien of
Tuesday evening asserts that the members of the former
municipality had been arrested, and would be tried by
the Court of Correctional Police, on account of their pro-
test against the Royal ordinance of the 24th ult., in virtue
of the law of 1831, which punishes the offence imputed
to these functionaries by an imprisonment of from one to
. two years, and the deprivation of civil rights during five
years.
The National announces that numerous arrests had
been made amongst the • military composing the garrison
of Paris, for which no cause had been assigned.
In Grenoble, on the 28th ult., a detachment of 700 re-
cruits traversed the streets, singing the Marseillaise
hymn, and preceded by a large tn.-coloured flag, sur-
mounted by a Phrygian red cap, and bearing these words,
" Vive la liberte et la reforme electorale."
According to returns published by the Minister of
Commerce, the quantity of wheat imported into France
during the first six months of 1841, amounted to up-
• wards of 88,000 metrical tritintals, and the quantity
stored in the entrepots, on the first of July last, was
120,000, besides 2,4,280 metrical quintals of other grain,
and 28,000 of flour.
We regret. to observe that a great deal of rain fell iu
Paris on Tuesday and Wednesday. The temperature,
however,lhad considerably increased.

• DESTRUCTION OF THE SHIP ST. GEORGE..--
SEVENTEEN LIVES LOST.—lntelligence of the loss of
this splendid ship, the property of Messrs. Fletcher and
Sons, Lover Shadwell, llatcliff-highway, was received
by the underwriters at Lloyd's on Tuesday last, and it
has caused a deep sensation throughout the whole of the
east end of" the metropolis. The unforttinate calamity
happened on the night of Thursday, the 17th of June
last, on the Florida shores, and all on board, excepting-
two seamen and the cabin boy perished. From the
statement of the survivors Which has been received, it
appears that the Saint George was on her voyage to
New Orleans,-having left London on the 29th of April
last. The ship and cargo are valued at 12,0001.
SINGULAR CASE.—Mrs. Marsh, of Elham,
whose death we noticed in our obituary of last week, had
been afflicted for eight years with a violent pain in her
side, seven of which she had been confined to her room,
and her body was swollen to an amazing size. - After her
death a post mortem examination took place, when a
tumour was extracted from her side, which weighed the
extraordinary weight of 631bs.—Maidstone Gazette.
HACKNEYCHURCH•RATER—ANOTHERDE-
FEAT.—YestercIay morning, a meeting of the Rate-
payers of Hackney was held in the parish church, to
make a rate for the ensuing year. Atter the passing of
the Churchwardens' accounts, a rate of two-pence half-
penny was proposed, to defray the probable parochial
expenditure. This was opposed, and-Mr. Miall moved to
amend the postponement of the question for 12 months.
Mr. Pennington seconded the amendment, which was
then put to the vote, and carried by 90 against 34. A
poll was thereupon demanded, :which would remain open
till five o'clock yesterday.
ST. PAUL'S CATHEDRAL.—During tne Last
few days groat interest has been excited, and crowds of
persons colleclo around St. Paul's Church-yard, in con-
sequence of 'the workmen being employed in repairing
the outside of the dome of the cathedral. The men are
suspended frdtn the " dizzy height" in cradles of wood,
let down by ropes, and, from the immense height, ap-
pear mere ingimee to those below.

1_ A SELECTION of POETRY of the NINETEENTH
CENTURY. By T. K. HERVEY, Esq.
" It is a monument full of honour to the living and lately-
lost poets of the land, and will be sweetly welcome to all who
love and admire the I%luses."—Literary Gazette.

" The selection has been made with reference to the intrin-
sic beauty of each poem, and the result is a collection worthy
the fine taste of the Editor."—.Athenaeum.
" The object of this volume is to show that though the age
has neglected poetry, poetry has not neglected the age."—
Examiner.

" This book is worth a dozen modern Annuals, and forms a
most tasteful and appropriate present for the approaching fes-
tive season."—United Service Gazette.

" The volume is altogether a very attractive one, and is cal-
culated to form a present of a very elegant and intellectual
kind."— Satirist.

RAILWAY COMPANY.

This was a rule directed to the Sheriff of Warwick-
shire, commanding him to review his taxation of the
costs incurred at an inquisition taken on the 19th of
June; for' the. purpose of assessing the sum to be paid by
the Biimingham and Gloucester Railway Company to
the plaintiff, Mr. Parkes,-for certain land belonging to
him, and which had been taken for the purposes of the
Railway.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL now appeared to show
cause against the rule. The affidavit on which the rule
had been obtained set forth that Mr. Parkes was a
claimant upon the Company, and they,ha.ving refused to
issue a precept to assess,. the damages, application was
made to that Court, for a mandamus, and the order of the
Court was at once complied with.l, When the inquisition
was taken the jury,assesieddamages at 520/. The Com-
pany had previously made no offer; conceiving that Mr.
Parkes had no legal right to compensation, and the clausb
in the Act of Parliament,which related to costs, apparently
referred only to cases, in which the sum awarded by the
Jury was equal to or exceeded the sum offered by the
Company. In the present case the Company having
made no offer, contended that they had no right to pay
any costs.. The plaintiff, however, considered that this
was a casus om4sus, and that he was entitled to the costs
of the inquisition. The costs which had been taxed and
allowed by the plaintiff amounted in the whole to
1061. 9s. 4d., but certain items in the list had been ob-
jected to by the defendants, on the ground that they did
not come within the meaning of the 81st section. lie
submitted, however, that the whole of the costs of sum-
moning the Jury and of taking the inquisition were
costs for which the Company were liable, and that if the
rule were made absolute at all, it should only be to re-
view the taxation as regarded the expenses of damages
which the Court had intimated ought not to be included.
Mr. CHILTON followed on the same side.

The COURT, without calling upon the Counsel on the
other side, was of opinion that the large sum which had
been charged by surveyors for making preparatory plans,
and others not contemplated in the 81st and 83d section,
were beyond the fair meaning of the Act of Parliament,
and ought not to have been included. They were of
opinion, therefore, that the rule for reviewing the taxa-
tion of costs must be made absolute.

SHOCKING MURDER.

KINNATTY, Nov. 16.--This town and neigh-
bourhood was thrown into a state of excitement
on Sunday last, by the announcement of a most
savage and brutal murder, which it was ascer-
tained, had recently been committed at the
finger-post of the Rushy Glen, King's County,
on the body of an unfortunate female named
Catherine Carroll. At an early hour yes-
terday morning, Mr. Dillon, one of the
County Coroners, arrived here on his way to
the scene of this barbarous atrocity, to hold
an inquiry into the melancholy circumstances
of the case. The great mass of evidence
adduced was of the strongest circumstan-
tial nature, and fixed the guilt on a person named
John Gorman, of Moller, in the Queen's County,
who was there amenable, and against whom a
verdict was recorded, when the Coroner con-
signed him to the custody of the police, for
transmission to Tullamore gaol, to abide his trial
at the next Assizes. He is a diminutive,
repulsive-looking man, having a wife and large
family of children. It appeared the ill-fated
female was far advanced in a state of pregnancy
by the prisoner. During the night of the Satur-
day before, footsteps of the accused and the de-
ceased were traced from his residence to the
scene of the murder in the glen. Here one
of the gamekeepers of the Castle Bernard
estates, immediately after daylight on Sun-
day morning, observed a quantity of blood,
footprints, and other marks on the road at
the cross, and from thence to the Rushy
Glen Lough, in which he discovered the mu-
tilated body of the murdered female with
large stones thrown on it to prevent its floating.
This person described with clearness and pre-
cision the impression made by the right shoe of
the individual, whose steps led to and from the
lough, marking the size of the heel, the length
of the sole, and the number of nails it contained.
An active and intelligent policeman named
Brennan, from the Cadamstown station,
traced the footprints to, and about the resi-
dence of the accused, and ultimately suc-
ceeded in procuring the shoes, which were se-
creted in a neighbouring farm-house in the
Queen's County, which were proved to belong to
the prisoner, and which exactly corresponded
with the description of the impressions made.
In justice to this peaceable district, it will be
observed that this sanguinary and diabolical
murder is in no way connected with agrarian
outrage.—Leinster Express.
