MISCELLANEOUS.

Among those publications which may be fi'
cla s '
as miscellaneous, the most prominent is the Eclectici
classified
Review, in the current number of which the criticism
on Larnartine's "History of the Girondists" is con'''.
cluded. Having sketched in the preceding month '
the careers of the Constituent and Legislative As-
semblies, the reviewer here traces that still more
extraordinary career, the career of the National
Convention. One observation strikes us as being
singularly felicitous, namely, where it is said that
" Roland and his wife were a bourgeois duplicate of
Louis XVI. and Marie Antoinette." In the rather
scanty and superficial notice of Tennyson's " Prin-
cess," the Eclectic remarks disparagingly that the
"Medley " resembles grotto-work, " where the spar
glitters beside the common pebble-stone, and the
agate and jasper are embedded in sand." It cannot
be
in forgotten that Dr. Johnson, in a precisely similar
br,,oi spoke of Shakspere as a mine in which the
• ore was "clouded by incrustations and
debased with
gazine pros impurities." Lowe 's Edinburgh Ma-

CARLTON CLUR.—Last evening the noblemen and gun.
tletorn members of the Carlton Ciub gave an entertain
ment to Lieutenant-General Viscount Ilardinge, G.C.8.,

to the club, and the whole was illuminated by massive
gilt candelabra.

HEROIC DARING OF A

" A formidable barricade had been erected. A com-
pany of soldiers of the line was ordered to take it by
assault, when a lad of about fifteen, wrapping himself
in a red cloth that served as a flag, flew• to the top of the
barricade, knelt down, and cried cut, Fire now if you
will!' The intrepid example of the g( min was imme-
diately followed by some men, who bad their breasts,
and called on the soldiers to firei on unc amed men. The
soldiers raised their guns, and refused to fire, amid loud
cries of Vice la ligne ! '

ONE OF THE BRAVE CHILDREN OF PARIS.

" A child, one of these admirable enlans de Paris, of
which this capital alone supplies a typ €., and which the
people have baptized by the name o F titis, flew about
the Place, animating the people and p revoking the sol-
diers. Etienne saw him alternately to his right, to his
left, opposite him, and, despite the gr: rvity of his per-
sonal situation, he admired, from th, bottom of his
heart, the careless courage, the bold hi titrt of the heroic
child, whose shoulder had been cut by a bayonet or a
ball, whose shirt was all bloody, and rb oin the van, in
the most perilous post, armed only with a sabre, and in
a shower of balls, came to brave n wounds, or an
althost certain death; and all this Ism ruse he had heart;
because the smell of powder was as a loa istone; because,
in fine, he was an enfant de Paris!"

SOVEREIGNTY OF THE PRINTIrit G PRESS.
" While I was reading, a friend tsr ped me on the
shoulder. I turned round. It was a joy ous Republican,
who dragged me up the dark stairs of the house, and
into the office of the Reforme. At L table sat six
persons writing. They were surrounded by armed men,
who cried aloud for copies of the list . The six men
were writing, as fast as they could, the l ,st, and handing

" SECRET EXPENDITURE.

The following is the preface to tit is document, to
which we have already referred:—
" The Ministerial departments of the Interior, of
Foreign Affairs, and of War, show tha.t every year large
ameunts of money are charged by the Ministers, under
the head of secret expenditure, of whit h no account has
been rendered to the King. Louis 1? hilippe, however,
during many years, made a collectim i of these annual
financial papers, which collection was discovered at the
Tuileries,:whence it was sent to the Court of Appeal.
These documents, in order to be cor o plete, should also
contain other statements, such as grill; .cities to artists and
literary men—gratuities which the IS Enlister of the Inte-
rior and of Public Instruction imprc ,perly distributed in
secret.

"We shall commence to-day wit h the Minister of
War, whose secret expenditure may I ie classified under
two heads—that giveu away at hot at ~ and that distri-
buted in Algeria.

NATIONAL PETITION.

Mr. THORNELY brought up the report of the
Committee on Public Petitions, which stated that
upon the 26th of November last a Committee was
appointed to report to the House the number of
signatures attached to all petitions presented to that
House, and that they had felt it their duty to make
a special report to the house upon the subject of the
National Petition, presented on the 10E11 of April,
by the Hon. Member for Nottingham, signed by
subjects of the British crown. The Committee
attached the utmost value to the right of pe-
titioning and to the exercise of that most im-
portant privilege by the subjects of tnis realm,
and felt deeply the necessity of preserving the due
exercise of such privileges from abuse, and having
also a due regard to the importance of a petition so
very numerously signed, had made that petition the
subject of their present report. They felt bound,
in the discharge of their duty, to represent to
the House that with respect to that petition there had
been a gross abuse of that privilege.—(Dear, hear.)
The Hon. Member for Nottingham, upon presenting
the petition, had stated that the petition was signed
by .5,706,000 persons. Upon the most careful exami-
nation of the number of signatures in the Committee,
with the assistance of thirteen law-stationers' clerks,
who acted under the superintendence of the various
clerks of the Committees, the number of signatures
attached to the petition does not, in the opinion of
the Committee, exceed 1,975,496.—(-Im.) A is

announcement of the evacuation of Milan by RANET•

SARDINIA."
General VICTOR has proceeded against Venice, and
will probably open the attack on it on the 12th.
The Diet at Presburg is to be dissolved by the
EMPEROR in person on the 10th. Its sittings are
hereafter to be held at Pesth. The persecution of
the Jews, which first broke out at Presburg, is still
continued in various parts of Hungary.
The Press-Gesetz has been as unfavourably re-
ceived in the provinces as in the capital. At Prague
it was publicly burnt by the students, and serious
disturbances broke out at Gratz in connexion
with it.
According to a letter received from the frontiers
of Bohemia, the mining population from the Riesen-
Geberge are descending on the neighbouring towns,
committing devastation and pillage.
An order appears in the Weiner Zeitung, according
to which the secrecy of letters is not
,to be violated
under any pretext whatever. The same paper con-
tains a circular from the Minister of Justice, ex-
plaining the way in which the law on the press is to
be administered, and, in the execution at least, modi-
fying some of its more obnoxious provisions.

BI7SINESS OF THE HOUSE.

Lord STANLEY rose, according to notice, to draw'.
the attention of the House to the manner in which the
business of both Houses of Parliament was conducted.
He did not at all intend to touch upon the manner in
which private besiness was conducted, but should
confine his attention to the manner in which
public legislation was conducted. There was now
a much greater degree of attention paid by the
public to the subject of legislation than was paid many
years ago, but with i
that greater degree of attention
there had arisen an idea n the mind of every man
that he was a competent judge in all matterss of
legislation, so that contemporaneously with this greater
degree of attention to public affairs, there had arisen a want
of deference to the authority of Parliament. There
had arisen a feeling of a somewhat similar nature in the
other House. Members of the House were more inde
pendent in the) expression of their opinions than they had
formerly been, and were much more dependent on their
constituents than formerly ; and to conciliate those con
stituents, they were obliged frequently to speak in the
House to the great obstruction of the public business.

PARMA.

The Duke of PAEMA and PLACENTIA has accorded
a very liberal constitution to his people. The follow-
ing are the principal points in it :
The State shall be governed by a moderate, here-
ditary, and constitutional monarchy, with the represen-
tative form. The Roman Catholic religion is declared
to be that of the State, but others are to be permitted.
The Sovereign is inviolable, but the Ministers are
responsible. The Sovereign possesses the usual powers,
and can grant pardons to condemned persons, but not to
Ministers who have betrayed their duty. The legis-
lative power is to be exercised by the Sovereign and a
Chamber of Deputies. Every citizen is to be an elector
at the age of 25. A LAIN l 5 to declare the conditions
on which a citizen can be elected as deputy. The
Deputies are to be paid by their respective communes.
The Chamber of Deputies is to be assembled every year.
No tax can be iniposed without its sanction, and that of
the Sovereign. Tye press is to be free. Judges not
to be liable to removal. No foreign troops can be
taken into the service of the State, except in virtue of a
law."

MARKET NEWS.--(THIS DAY)

CORN-EXCHANGE.—FRIDAY. t
This week's arrival of English Wheat has been 1211'.
moderate; yet the show of samples, many of which WO.
left over from last week, was good. For all dascrir
Lions, owing to the small 'umber of buyers in atteuai
ance, the demand was exceedingly heavy, and, to etre°
large sales, is per quarter less money must have bets:
submitted to. Fine foreign Wheat was mostly held I
full prices, but the middling and inferior kinds Wer
offered at a reduction of quite is per quarter.
In Barley, so little was done that the currencies wet
almost nominal. The best parcels of malt moved ott
slowly, at full prices, but the middling and inferior
kinds were somewhat lower. Oats, the supply of which
was small, were in steady request, at extreme figure~
Beaus, Peas, Indian Curn, and Flour, were extrenolf

AUSTRIA.

The Weiner Zeitung of the 6th contains the official
announcement of the evacuation of Milan by RA/SET..
ART, "in consequence of the perfidy of the King of
SARDINIA."
General Vicroa-has proceeded against Venice, and
will probably open the attack on it on the 12th.
The Diet at Presburg is to be dissolved by the
EMPEROR in person on the 10th. Its sittings are
hereafter to be held at Pesth. The persecution of
the Jews, which first broke out at Presburg, is still
continued in various parts of llungary.
The Press-Gesetz has been as unfavourably re-
ceived in the provinces as in the capital. At Prague
it was publicly burnt by the students, and serious
disturbances broke out at Griitz in connexion
with it.
According to a letter received from the frontiers
of Bohemia, the mining population from the Riesen-
Geberge are descending on the neighbouring towns,
committing devastation and pillage.
An order appears in the Weiner Zeitung, according
to which the secrecy of letters is not ,to be violated
under any pretext whatever. The same paper con-
tains a circular from the Minister of Justice, ex-
plaining the way in which the law on the preis is to
be administered, and, in the execution at least, modi-
fying some of its more obnoxious pi ovisions.
The Jacquerie among the peasants of Southern
Germany still continues. We:learn from the Swabian
Mercury that on the night of the sth the Castle of
Waldenburg had been set on fire by the peasantry,
who bad vainly demanded from the Pallscx a reduc-
tion in their rents. The PRINCE and his family es-
caped under a military escort to Altenburg.

ROYAL COMMISSION.

Sir A. CLIFFORD appeared at—thetable to sum-
mon the House to attend the bar of the House of
Lords, to hear the Royal Assent given to several
public and private Bills, (for the titles of which see
Lords' report.)
The SPEAKER, on his return, enumerated the
names of the Bills.

Mr. SCULLY presented a petition from Clonmel,
praying for a repeal of the Union.
PIKES—IRELAND.

Mr. J. O'CONNELL referred to a report in an
Irish newspaper with respect to the alleged pur-
chases of pikes at the instance of Colonel Browne,
and inquired if it was the intention of the Govern-
ment to retain that officer in their service? It ap
peared from the report that he had admitted he pur-
chased pikes, but that he subsequently denied it.
Sir W. SOMERVILLE, in reply, read a letter
from Colonel Browne, distinctly denying that there
was any truth in the allegation that he had employed
Kershaw or any other person to manufacture
pikes. lie had employed the person named to pur-
chase some specimen pikes at places where he had
heard they were for sale, in order to ascertain if
the information was correct. He thought the
statement of a person occupying the posi-
tion of Colonel Browne was more worthy of
credit than a newspaper police report. His Excel-
lency had issued a notice stigmatising the conduct of
those who incited ignorant persons to purchase pikes
in order that they might inform against them and get
re warded.—(Hear.)
