from nearly the ;whole population. Immediately on his

Generals Athalin and Heymes, M. de Gerente, Adminis-
trator of the Domaine Prive, and Messrs. Fontaine,
Legrand, and Cailleux,; went to visit the mills of
Mr. Packham, which have been considerably enlarged
since last year, and now comprise two manufactories of
sea-biscuits, one for lamp-oil, and a saw-mill. At five
o'clock his Majesty returned to the chateau. In the
evening the Prefect, Generals Maisonfort, Gerard, and
Feisthamel, the Sub-Prefect of Dieppe, the Mayor of

the National Guards of Eu and Treport, Lad the honour
of dining with their Majesties. The Duke and Duchess
of Orleans, accompanied by General Marbot and a lady
of honour, arrived at half-past eight in the evening.
A letter from Orleans, in the Messager, states
that Serein, the man charged with having carried off two
children, has confessed, dreading discovery, he had
strangled them, and put them into a cask, which he car-
ried in his cart to Vouzon, where be concealed them in
some underwood. The account adds, that a gendarme,
who had been sent to the spot indicated by the murderer,
had discovered the bodies, but the thigh of one of them
had been devoured by wolves. They had been stabbed
and mutilated in several places. The wife of Serein has
been arrested on suspicion of having known of the crime
of her husband.
Extract of a letter from Aleppo, June 21st, given
by the Sentinelk of Toulon :—" The two English steam-
boats for navigating the Euphrates arrived a fortnight
ago at Beles, the point nearest to Aleppo for the princi-
pal establishment. There is every reason to believe that
an understanding has been or will be come to with the
Arabs, but without which the proposed communication
cannot take place. The passage from Bassora to Boles
may be made in fourteen days, the distance being about
twelve hundred English miles. It is too late for com-
mencing this year, as the waters of the river have been
lowering ever since May the sth ; the current, however,
remaining so strong that boats are obliged to keep near
the shores."
The Post Ampt Gazette of Frankfort has the fol-
lowing from Carlsruhe, 31st ult. :—" This afternoon the
Second Chamber of the States, which is to be pro-
rogued till November, had a farewell dinner, at which
several liberal toasts were proposed. The Vice-Presi-
dent, M. Bekk, in proposing the heal.',h of the Grand
Duke, said—' The Grand Duke, who as a man possesses
the greatest qualities, is as a Sovereign the object of the
veneration of all of us, notwittstanding our differences
with his Ministers. Let us, not forget that the Duke is
placed in too elevated a sphere to receive the slightest
attack, and let our devotedness to him be the greater
from the hope that his intervention will put an end to
all unhappy disscfnsions."
The Nem Gazette of Wurzburg has the following
from Berlint July 30 :—" On the morning of the 28th,
some workmen, in the musket manufactory at Potsdam,
excited by some French workmen, made an attempt at
revolt, which the police and the gendarmerie were un-
able to repress, and which was only put down by the
presence of troops. In this manufactory there are 700
persons employed, who would not submit to a customary
diminution of wages, and even demanded an increase.
The ringleaders were arrested, and tranquillity was re-
stored. The improper conduct of some young men of
the upper classes at a concert having reached the know-
ledge of the King, through the journals, he has ordered
the Minister of the Interior to proceed to an investiga-
tion, and to report the result. More than 50 witnesse:,
have already been examined."
The Helvetie states that the storm of the.lBth ult.,
-which was felt severely in Switzerland, was followed by
an inundation in the Valais, which produced almost as
calamitous results as the inundations of 1834 and 1839.
On the 19th, the torrents from the mountains rushed
down with such force, that the bed of the Rhone in a
few minutes reached nearly the same height as in 1834,
and they brought down with them fragments of build-
ings destroyed in their course. Several mills and houses
were swept away by the Rhone, and the water was be-
tween five and six feet deep on the road from Tourte-
magne to Louesch. A post-chaise was there carried
away by the current, and the postillion with great diffi-
culty escaped with the horses.
A letter of the 28th ult. from Naples, in the Sema-
phore, says :—" The King on the 26th held a council o:
Ministers, which prolonged its sittings for five hours.
His 'Majesty, it appears, will not go into Sicily until the
designs and plans for the alterations to be made in tht
Lazaretto at Messina are determined upon. The revenues
of the city of Naples are so apple that hitherto it has
never had occasion to raise the smallest loan ; but it is
so anxious to complete some important works that it ha:
decided upon borrowing 500,000 ducats, rather more
than 2,000,000 francs. Messrs. de Rothschild have of-
fered to make the advance at 51 per cent., but it is said
the city will give no more than 5, nor will allow an:,
commission. The heat has for several days been exces
sive, but is so sensibly diminished as to become sup
portable."

The following letter is published by the Legitimist
papers, as having been addressed to M. Berry-er by the
Duke de Bordeaux :—" I have just learnt, Sir, the loss
you have sustained by the death of your worthy father,
and I have wished to express to you, with my own hand,
the share I take in your just grief. I seize this opportu-
nity of informing you with how much attention and in-
terest I have followed the important discussions in which
you have so frequently and so effectually spoken. Pro-
vidence has willed, and for this I offer up my thanks,
that the most eloquent voice of our times should be con-
secrated to the defence of those principles, which so long
insured the happiness and glory of our country. Con
tinue, Sir, thus to serve France, by enlightening her
upon her true interests, and believe that you will thereby
acquire fresh claims to my esteem and affection, of
which I take pleasure in hereby renewing to you the
very sincere assurance.

Kirchberg, July 10. " HEN RI.""
The Ecito de la Nievre gives the following affecting
instance of the force of conjugal affection in an industri-
ous couple at Nevers. A journeyman cabinet-maker,
named Paris, and his wife, being both attacked with
violent illness, were removed to the hospital, where the
wife soon recovered ; but the husband remaining ill, she
refused to leave him, and was constantly at his bedside.
She was at length prevailed on to leave him for a short
time, but she died soon after being removed to another
room from excess of grief, and at the same moment the
husband expired in the arms of one of the sisters of
charity.

A miser, who possessed a fortune of more than a
thousand francs, but 'who did not expend daily more than
six creutzers a-day for the milk and bread which formed
his only food, lately committed suicide at Neufchatel, in
Switzerland, by shooting himself with a pistol, which he
had purchased the day before, after bargaining for a long
time in order to obtain a diminution of price on the
weapon. . _ _

A man with the appropriate name of Paternelle, as
yet only 33 years of age, of the commune of Saint Martin
in the Nord, lately entered for the fifth time into the
holy state of matrimony, after a fourth widowhood of
only 29 days, upon which occasion his neighbours gave
him a spirit-stirring charivari. He was first married
in 1830, next in 1835, thirdly in 1836, and fourthly
in 1839.

M. de Lamartine has returned to Macon from a
tour in Switzerland.

The Ministerial evening journal says—" Toulouse
has during several days been making marked progress in
its return to order. According to despatches received
to-day, the disarmament of the national guard is being
effected without the least difficulty. Yesterday, in the
afternoon, the persons employed at the Prefecture were
scarcely sufficient to receive the arms brought in by the
National Guards."

The Maniteur Parisien states that the number of
persons arrested at Toulouse is considerable. Menaces
of death, it acids, have been addressed to the new Mayor
and his colleagues, and it was this that caused M. Lari-
gandere to give in his resignation. —
The Etna steamer left Marseilles on the 3d, the
Meteor and Crocodile on the sth, all bound for Algiers.
Several emigrant Spanish priests have arrived at
Paris. Immediately after their arrival they repaired to
the Prefecture.

The Acheron steamer which returned to port on th©
31st of July, had seen the squadron off the Balearic
islands.

Seray's division was still at Tunis, and was said to
have many sick.—Le Coninierce.

Versailles. LB,

. . -
CoixenDATs.—lt is said that Sir Robert Peel proposes
to negotiate a concordat with the Pope for the Govern-
ment of the Catholic Church in England and Ireland.
Before lie begins such a negotiation, lie will have to pro-
cure the repeal of some laws, of which Tepettliijs friendsthe Churchmen may not approve.

for the common weal. Chatham, and Burke, and Fox,
would have died sooner than dissemble for a moment,.
During the whole career of those great statesmen, their
measures and their sentiments on all point's and ques-
tions were proclaimed in season and out of season, in
office and in opposition."

The Scotsman warmly praises the clergymen who
are about to assemble at Manchester, in order to enter
their solemn protest against the Corn-laws :—" We are
glad to perceive that many clergymen in different parts
of the country are beginning to remonstrate with the
landlords against the iniquitous Corn-laws. With the
ordinary contests of party it is doubtful how far the
clergy should interfere ; but questions occasionally
come before the public which belong to religion as
well as politics, and in which it is their duty to take
part. The efforts, for example, which they made
for the abolition of slavery, so far from being in-
consistent with their calling, were a necessary conse-
quence of sincerity in the faith they professed ; and as-
suredly the question of the Corn-laws is entitled to rank
in the same category. To unfetter trade is, in fitct, to
clothe the naked and feed the hungry."
The Dublin Evening Post is of opinion that Sir
Robert Peel will force the Tories to come into his views,
observing, " He has just put the bit into their mouths,
and they must obey the impulse of the charioteer."
