which may be made relative to some attempts at dis-
turbances which have taken place within the last few
days at Modena and Reggio, we publish the following
statement :—At Modena, on the morning of the 12th
December, about a hundred persons went beyond the
gate of Bologna, at the hour of the promenade, to
await the passage of a person of distinction. On his
arrival seditious cries were uttered, and this led to the
arrest of three individuals, two of them being Jews.
The following day the rumour was spread that in
the evening similar demonstrations would take place
at the same time at Modena and Reggio. It Modena,
groups went towards the theatre of the Court, where
a society of amateurs was to perform for the
benefit of the poor. Attempts were made to prevent
them from going, and the tickets of certain persons
were demanded and torn up. The arrival of a patrol
dispersed this assemblage. At the theatre of Reggio,
where there was an extraordinarily large assemblage
of spectators, seditious cries were uttered during the
last act. After the last act a crowd of about three
hundred men assembled on the principal place, and
uttering the same cries mixed with the crowd which
was returning home. They then divided into two
bands, one of which went towards the Square of
Saint Prosper, the other towards the Square of Saint
George. A patrol of the line and another of five
dragoons ordered the bands to disperse. The former
obeyed, the latter resisted, whereupon the dragoons
drew their swords against the rioters, who imme-
diately fled in different directions. In the tumult
the soldiers only employed the fiat sides of their
swords, but two persons were wounded, one of them
grievously, having, as it appeared, been stabbed by a
poniard, which was found on the ground. The
patrols who traversed the streets during the night
stated that everything was in order. The Govern-
ment has the means of obtaining order and is resolved
to employ them."

We have received the Paris papers of Saturday and
Sunday.
They contain the important intelligence of the
arrival of ABD-EL•KADER as a prisoner at Toulon.
After his defeat by the forces of the Emperor of
Monocco, he proposed to surrender, but the terms
proposed were so severe that he rather chose to enter
into negotiations with the French authorities. The
Duc D'AUMALE was immediately sent for, and on his
arrival the Emir surrendered to him. The French
authorities had guaranteed to him that his life should
be spared, and that he should be permitted to reside
either in Mecca or in some part of Egypt.
The following is the letter by which the Duke
D'AUMALE announces to General Count Du HAUT-
roux, the Commander-in-Chief of the military divi-
sion of Toulon, the capture of Inn-EL- K A DER :

" Mers-el-Kebir, Dec. 25.
" My dear General,—Abd•el-Kader has made his
submission to France. Surrounded by the Moorish
troops, and by our cavalry, be could not any longer
save his deira ; but he had still the possibility of
reaching the south with some horsemen. He, how-
ever, decided on confiding in the generosity of France.
This is an immense result, for his presence in the
midst of the tribes, which still feel for him a great
attachment, might cause us exceedingly great embar-
rassments. Having arrived at Nemours on the
morning of the 23d, I quitted it on the 24th, with
the ex-Emir on board, together with his family and
some of his relations On arriving here this morning,
I very fortunately found the Asmodee in the roadsted,
and I charged that vessel to carry to France at the
same time the news of Abd- elliader's surrender, and
Abd-el-Kader himself. She will first proceed to Port
Vendres to land letters, and then will go on to Toulon
with her passengers. In case the telegraphic dispatch
which she has to send on shore at the first of these
ports should by any cause be stopped, I send you a
duplicate of the direct mail, requesting you to for-
ward it forthwith to the Minister of War.

" H. D'ORLEANS,
" Lieut.-General, Governor General of Algeria."
The Marseilles papers thus announce the
intelli-
gence of the arrival of the Emir at Toulon :
" A supplement of the Semaphore of Marseilles,
says—

" Abd-el-Kader, who embarked the 25th at Oran,
on the steam-frigate the Asmodee, has arrived at
Toulon. It is known how critical his situation had
become of late, and from what danger he escaped in
the recent combat which he sustained against the
troops of Morocco, commanded by one of the sons of
Abderrhaman. After this last defeat all hope of
escaping the pursuit of the Moors having been lost for
him, he surrendered himself to H. R. H. the Duke
d'Aumale, at the camp de Nemours. We can give
this good news, which has been brought by the Phe-
nicien as official. This last act of the military career
of Abd-el-Kader terminates the war of Africa, and
assures to France the peaceable submission of
Algeria."

The Nouvelliste also publishes a supplement con-
taining the same intelligence_ in the following
terms :

" Abd•el-Rader having surrendered himself a
prisoner, has just arrived at Toulon on board a steam-
frigate. He gave himself up to the Duke d'Aumale
at the camp do Neinours, having lost all hope of
escaping from the Moors."

The Courrier de Marseille, on its part; also pub-
lishes the same intelligence in a supplement which
runs as follows :

"We hasten to publish the official intelligence of
the submission of Abd- el- ICader. He has arrived at
Toulon, and is to be transferred to Egypt. We have
no need to dwell here on the precious advantages
which must result from this event to our colony."
The funeral of the Princess ADELAIDE IS to take
place on Wednesday at Dreux. It is said that by her
will her Royal Highness Madame the Princess ADE-
LAIDE leaves her forests of Crecy and Armainvilliers
to the Duke DE NEMOUES, the forest of Arc- en-
Barrois to the Prince DE JougviLLE, and her magni-
ficent estate of Randan, with the chateau enlarged
and embellished by her, to the Duke DE MONTPEN-
SIER.

The Dthats gives the following account of the visit
of condolence of the Peers and Deputies :—" The
Chambers having, through their presidents, sponta-
neously expressed to the KING their desire to give
him a proof of their sympathy and respect, his MA-
JESTY directed the Minister to state that he would re-
ceive it with gratitude as the only possible consolation
to his profound affliction.—Accordingly, at three
o'clock, the Chancellor of France, accompanied by
the high officers of the Chamber, and by nearly all
the Peers in costume, waited on the KING, and the
Chancellor addressed the consolations of the Chamber
to his MAJESTY. His MAJESTY replied with great
warmth of expression. He was accompanied by the
QUEEN, the Duchess D'ORLEANS, the Princes and
Princesses of the Royal Family all in deep mourning.
Having perceived the President BoTER, who in spite
of his infirmities had caused himself to be conducted
to the royal audience, the KING went to him and
thanked him warmly for this touching proof of his
devotedness. The Chamber of Deputies went in a
body to the Tuileries preceded by its officers. The
Deputies passed along the Pont and Place de la
Concorde, the garden and the Pavillon de l'Horloge,
and at four o'clock were received by the KING. The
number of them was greater than had been seen
for a long time, and there were among them
members of all parties. All the chiefs of the
different fractions of the dynastic Opposition,
M. TRIERS, M. DUFAURE, M. BILLAULT, M.
DE REMUSAT, and M. ()DILLON BARROT had
oined their Conservative colleagues in expressing
lively sympathy and profound respect for the
memory of a Princess distinguished by her devoted-
ness to the KING her brother, and by her love to the
country. The President of the Chamber of Deputies,
addressing his MAJESTY, merely raid, in trembling
accents, Sire, we do not come to trouble your grief
by words, but to associate our grief with yours, and
to bring you the lively sympathies of the country I'
The KING wept, and his tears choked his voice•

The Deputies who were close to him could only
catch these broken phrases—' I had hoped to-morrow
to have had to thank the Chamber for its reception
—That would have been sweet to my heart—l
feel that I am giving way to my sorrow—lt is very
bitter—l am touched to the heart by the testimony
of your sympathy, and at seeing the Chamber so nu-
merous around me.' "

All the Ministers were present at this reception.
On its conclusion his MAJESTY, accompanied by the
QUEEN and the Royal Family, then retired to the
private apartments.
It was said that ABD-EL-KADER would arrive in
Paris on Sunday morning.

A heavy fall of snow took place on Saturday night,
and the roads in the south of France were rendered
impassable; consequently, we have no intelligence
from Spain or Italy.
