BERLIN, AUG. 11.—It is remarkable that our journals
have taken no notice whatever of the arrival or the de-
parture of Count Woronzow. A letter from Warsaw
states that the object of the journey, or rather of the
mission of the Count, who is equally distinguished as a
negotiator and a general, was to give a detailed ac-
count of the military force concentrated in the south of
the Russian empire, and to consider the best mode of
employing it for the attainment of the common object,
the execution of the treaty of the Quadruple Alliance ;
who, in fact, could be better qualified to explain to the
Allied Powers all the details of this subject than the
Governor of the great province in which those immense
armaments are prepared for objects which are only
matters of conjecture. The Russian passport left it to
the General's own discretion to have eight horses put
to his carriage. This long journey from Odessa was
performed in a remarkably short time, and his expected
arrival at St. Petersburgh was not announced in the
newspapers till he had passed the frontiers of Germany.
DRESDEN, AUGUST 13.—The King returned from
Silesia yesterday. The Queen of Prussia arrived at
Pillnitz the day before yesterday. The King of Prus-
sia arrived yesterday at noon by an extra train by the
railway, and immediately proceeded to Pillnitz. Counts
Nesselrode and Tatischeff arrived on the 10th, on the
part of Russia, Count Maltzan on the part of Prus-
sia,. and Prince Metternich on the part of Austria. to
pay their respects to the King and the Empress of Rus-
sia. It is natural in the present state of affairs that the
public should believe in diplomatic conferences, but at
the same time it is generally hoped that the results will
only tend to the preservation of the peace of Europe.
The Russian diplomatist went yesterday evening with
Prince Metternich, who is accompanied by the Princess,
to view several collections in the Japanese Palace.
They then went to see the arrival of the reign-
ing Duchess, the Princess Agnes of Dessau,
which Princess did not, however, stop at Dres-
den, but proceeded to Fischbach. To-day all
the Court is in town, and at noon the Empress of Rus-
sia, accompanied by the Grand Duchess Olga and
Princess Mary of Darmstadt, and all of the Princes
and Princesses of Prussia, is to arrive with a very nume-
rous suite. There will be a great family dinner at the
Palace, and in the evening the whole of the distin-
guished company will go to Pillnitz. It is not. known
whether the Duke and Duchess of Lcuchtenberg, who
are likewise expected at Fischbach, will now visit Dres-
len. All the guests of the Royal family stop, as we
hear, till the morning of the 15th August, when 150
post horses arc bespoke for the Empress of Russia
Alone. Her Majesty will leave Fischbach on the Ist of
September. It is not known whether the Emperor will
suspend this family circle before that time or not.

The Police Gazette of yesterday contains an
account of the death of William Reynolds Rothery, late
of Holbeck, near Leeds, a dealer in rage and bones, who
has been supposed to have unfairly met his death. It ap-
pears that on Wednesday, the Bth of July last, the de-
ceased was found in the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, near
the Suspension Canal, having an extensive wound on his
throat, and other marks of violence on his person. The
Coroner's jury have returned a verdict of Wilful Murder
against some persons unknown, and Government have
offered 201. and her Majesty's free pardon, to any person
who will give the necessary information, providing he or
she was not the actual perpetrator.

THE STEAM SHIP OBIENTALo—This superb
new vessel, of 1,673 tons, of 450 horse power, the Ist of
the new line established by Government for the conveyance
of the East India mails via Gibraltar, will conic round
furn Liverpool to Southampton this week. The Direc-
tcrs of the Peninsula, and Oriental Steam Company, we
understand, intend to throw her open to the inspection of
the public for a few days, for the benefit of that cxcellen
institution the " Shipwrecked Fishermen, or Mariners
'Benevolent Society."
THE BRITISH QUEEN.—We understand that
the Custom-house officers have discovered 3001hs, more
of tobacco concealed in the engine-room, in addition to
that mentioned in our paper of yesterday. The whole
has been lodged in the Queen's warehouse. The vessel
still remains under seizure, no decision having been yet
come to by the board of Customs. According to the
strict letter of the law, the steamer is liable to forfeiture.
Every person on board at the time of the seizure is liable
to a tine of 1001., or imprisonment until the fins is paid.
EMIGRATION OF INDIANS.—.A very extraor-
dinary " sign of the times" in the emigration department
has recently ocourred. A body of 5,000 Indians have
crossed from the United States territories and sought re-
fuge and rest in Upper Canada. Many of these are said
to have sufficient means for :During down comfortably.
Madame l'howas, a wholesale dealer in leeehes

too slow, and therefore addressed a petition to the Chamber

kkpon her demand, but the Moniteur published thepetition
