the two gendarmes who were to be his escort ; but
whilst the I'rocureur. Roi was replying to him
through the keeper of the prison, that he must address
his appliCation to the Commandant of Gendarmerie, he
was at the same time giving orders to have him removed
to Montpellier, from brigade to brigade, handcuffed, and
with a chain round his neck; and at the end of three days,
during which he was confined with thieves, and had them
for bedfellows, these orders were carried into execution,
with the exception of putting a chain round his neck—a
severity with which the gendarmes humanely dispensed.
His fellow-prisoners on the route, says he, were seven
men condemned to " trainer le boulet ; " but whilst his
own hands were bound like those of w forcet condemned

to the bagne, the other prisoners were unbound, and
walked freely by the side of him, sometimes singing,
and sometimes imploring charity of the passengers on
the road.

Such conduct on the part of a Government, as
is here exhibited, would disgrace a nation of
Hottentots. _

The Siecle asserts that the movement of French
troops towards the Belgian frontier was the re-
sult of a private negotiation on the part of King
LEOPOLD, of which his Ministers were ignorant.
This is not impossible. The King of the BEL-
GIANS, like his Royal father-in-law, is exceedingly
fond of acting without the knowledge of his
Cabinet. Now, this is rather unfair, when it is
considered that the Ministers are responsible for
the acts of the Sovereign.

A letter from Goritz of the 12th of November says:—
" The news received this morning respecting the Duke
of Bordeaux continue to be satisfactory, but the Royal
family has expressed a wish that the stay of the Prince
at Vienna may be protracted as long as shall be neces-
sary to effect his entire recovery, and to avoid the fatigue
of a long journey.—Gazette de France.
A journal says that M. de Bourquenay, who has just
set out for Constantinople, with the title of Minister
Plenipotentiary, is not destined to succeed M. de Pon-
tois, and that the Cabinet has desired to recompense his
docility and his zeal by an office superior to that of First
Secretary of Legation.
M. de Pontois has arrived at Marseilles. He may pass
on the road M. de Bourquenay, who, as his friends say,
does not think of making a long stay in the Levant.
A Ministerial paper affirms that the Marquis de Brig-
none, Ambassador of Sardinia at Paris, will address the
King in the name of the diplomatic body on New Year's
Day.
Yesterday, after the Council of Ministers, Messrs.
d'Argout and Dupin had a pretty long conference with
the. King.
The journals of the Southern Department continue
to announce the passage of troops, proceeding to the de-
partments on the frontiers of Spam.
A fire, attended with melancholy results, occurred a few
night since, at Amiens, in the house of a baker. The
husband, wife, and one of the children, were burnt to
death ; but a man, the female servant, and three chil-
dren, were saved. _ _ . .

The European population of the French pbssessions
in Northern Africa is at present 32,017—viz., 14,669
men, 7,742 women, and 9,606 children. Of these there I
are 7,585 men, 4,470 women, and 6,331 children at Al-
giers. Out of the whole number 13,563 are French,
9,591 Spaniards, 4;392 English and Maltese, 3,136 Ita-
lians, 1,329 Germans, and six Greeks or Russians. The
native population, in all the towns occupied by the
French, is calculated at 30,000.
The Independent of Brussels states that Mademoiselle
Panas, " dite Madame Parent," who is a native of
France, has been ordered by the Administrateur de is
Surete Publique to quit Belgium. A passport was deli-
vered to her on Sunday, with orders to leave within 24
hours on her way to Lille. This is the lady described
as the wife of the ex-Colonel Parent, and who was
arrested as an accomplice in the late plot. The same
paper adds that the police, on Sunday, seized four bar-
rels of gunpowder in one place, and in another a trunk,
containing papers and a carbine addressed to Col. Parent.
The Minister of the Interior has appointed a Commis-
sion to prepare a Report on the competitors who have
submitted models and designs for the tomb of Napoleon.
The Commission is composed of Count Houdetot, Peer
of France ; M. Fontaine, architect; M. David, sculptor;
M. Cave, Director des Beaux Arts • M. Vitel, Deputy ;
M. de Remusat, Deputy ; M. Ingres, painter ; M.
Peysse, Conservator at the Ecole des Beaux Arts ; and
M. Theophile Gauthier, one of the Editors of the Presse,
who is to be Secretary of the Commission.
A collection of all the weights and measures used in
France at various periods is now making at the office of
the Minister of Commerce, and will form there a kind of
museum.

The uniform of the foot chasseurs, in garrison at
Vincennes, has just undergone great changes. The
frock coat is now of dark green cloth, the cap is orna-
mented with galloon, and the waist-belt, which was
black, is now white, the same as that of the cavalry.
The Moniteur Parisien says that the trial of Quenisset
and his accomplices will be put off till the sth or Gth of
December, to allow of the Yrocureur-General, M. Her-
bert, who has only taken part in the cognizance of this
affair, a short time since, being able to study it with suf-
ficient attention.

The Guienne states that eighty refugee Carlist officers'
at Bordeaux gave, this autumn, an honourable example
of courage in supporting the hardships of exile. They
were sent by the Comte Louis de Calvimont to the
Vicomte de Chasteigner, under the direction of M.
Mayor, their superior officer, and they all aided in getting
in the vintage for the Vicomte, conceiving that in so
working they were not doing any thing derogatory to
their character, but, on the contrary, were gaining their
livelihood with honour.
M. Lehrberger, a Jew, who carried on the business of
a printer at Rcedelheim, in the Grand Duchy of Hesse-
Darmstadt, and who was much respected, having died a
short time ago, all the Christian clergy of the place,
Catholic and Protestant, accompanied by the civil and
military authorities, attended the funeral. The toleract
spirit of the clergy of Rcedelheim did not stop here. M.
Thudichum, the oldest member of the Catholic clergy,
opened a subscription for the widow and nine children
of the deceased who had died poor, and himself sub-
scribed 100 florins (250 f.)
The Breton of Nantes states that, at Porille, near that
place, the banns of marriage have been published be-
tween a young woman and a Catholic clergyman, who
was regularly ordained
,priest some years ago, but has
since left the Catholic'Clinkh for the sect of the Abbe
Chatel. "It remains`to lie seen," observes this Paper,
" whether, according to 'the laws of France, a priest
can abandon the ecclesiastical condition, and marry.

THE MUSICAL CHAIR AT EDINBURGH.—Mr.
Muller, who had, at one time, every prospect of
being appointed to this Chair, has withdrawn his
name from the list of candidates, in consequence,
as he states, of the superior claims of Mr. Bishop,
who, it is generally believed, will be elected.
The appointment is worth about 3001. a-year.
DEATH OF THE EARL OF HAnEwoou.—We

;
ten minutes. His Lordship's remains were re-
moved to Bramham. The death of the

bruary,
