RUSSIA.

According to the latest intelligence from Russia,
the extensive levy of recruits ordered by the Emperor
NienoLAs had created much irritation among the no-
bility of the three Governments nearest to St. Peters-
burgh, who had resolved to resist, and engage in a
struggle with the military directed to bring the order
of the EMPEROR into execution. This event had de-
termined his Imperial MAJESTY to recal the troops
that had been sent to Poland. The cholera was raging
at Tampa], in Gallicia.

A telegraphic dispatch has reached the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs to say that a serious quarrel had just
broken out at Tunis between the Dey and the French
Envoy. The quarrel was of so serious a nature that
the friendly relations between the two countries

brought to Toulon by the Camelia steamer.

FOX APPELLANT AND DATIES RESPONDENT.

This was an appeal from the decision of the Revising
Barrister for Shaftesbury, and the question involved in
the case was simply as to whether a rate had been pur-
posely levied, for the non payment of which the appel-
lant's name, as a scot and lot ♦oter, was struck from
the register.
It appeared that the assessment was properly signed
by two churchwardens, one of whom was a justice of
the peace, but that it was not confirmed by the signa-
tures of two justices of the peace, which was required
by the 33c1 sec. of Will. IV., c. 4, 5. Some ratepayers
paid- the rate, and others refused to do so, but no appeal
%as made against the irregular mode in which it was
levied.
The COURT was of opinion that the appeal must b 2
allowed, as in point of Isw no rate had been made, and
that being the case, there could be no uon payment, and
therefore no disfranchisement

The decision of the Revising Barrister was then re
very d.

CoPELAND APPELLANT AND BARTLETT RESPONDENT.
This was an appeal from the decision of the Revising
Barrister for the Southern Division of Essex.
The appellant, who was a member of a building
society, became the purchaser in fee-simple of a cottage

and garden, the purchase-money, 651., being advanced by
the society, who had a mortgage upon the property as
security for the payment of the monthy instalments of
154,which the appellant was required to pay until the
loan was satisfied, and the society ceased to exist.
The Revising Barrister decided that as the society
had a mortgage upcn the property the appellant was not
entitled to be registered in respect of it.
Mr. Sergeant BmEs supported the appeal against that
decision, and ccntended that the Court ought simply to
take into consideration whether the appellant occupied
and received the rent and profits of the property, and
not look to the mortgage.
The COURT affirmed the decision of the Revising
Barrister. -

LAND.

In this case a conviction had taken place. The de-
fendant is a girl, aged 13. She was accused of admi-
nistering fag water (a compound of arsenic, used for the
cure of the diseases with which sheep are afflicted,) to
her mistress, a Mrs.• Smith, in milk, with the intention
of murdering her. :It appeared that a Mr. Gilby, a
doctor, who had been called in, remonstrated with the
prisoner, saying, without any caution as to the con-
sequences that might ensue from her statement, " You
had better tell the truth." She at once admitted she
had committed the act, saying she did it to "get rid of
her service." The counsel for the prisoner at the trial
urged that this confession ought to be struck out as it
regular. The counsel for the prosecution declined, after
consulting Lord Denman upon the point, to do so, con-
tending that the evidence having been given, it would be
useless to strike it out, since the jury could not dismiss
the evidence from their minds. The evidence, conse-
quently, went to the jury.
The COURT were of opinion that the evidence was in-
admissible, and that the conviction was bad.
Conviction quashed.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.
COURT OP QUEEN'S BENCH, Nov. 11.

The Court took the Crown paper to day. No causes
of the slightest public interest occurred during the whole
of the day .

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.

O❑ Saturday a young man, named Thomas Foulke,
was charged before the Lord Mayor with the following
attempt at robbery.
It appeared that the prisoner had been in the service
of Mr. Ratcliffe, of Billingsgate-market, fishmonger,
for twelve years previous to the Ist instant. On that
day, during the absence of Mr. Ratcliffe, his wife ob-
served the prisoner open a desk in the counting-house,
in which gold, silver, and banknotes to a considerable
amount were frequently deposited, and put his hand in-
side of it. On her husband's return she informed him
of what she had seen, and on his examining the desk he
found it locked. On the prisoner being searched by Mr.
Ratcliffe, he found a skeleton key which opened the desk.
The prisoner was immediately turned out of the house,
Mr. Ratcliffe having lost sums of money from time to
time, but not very recently.—Committed for trial.
Thomas Wright, an errand boy to Messrs. Lee and
Co., 2, Leadenhall-market, was charged with having
embezzled the sum of 121. 17s. the property of his em-
ployers.
It appeared the prisoner was sent to receive the above
sum from the proprietor of the Adelaide Hotel, London-
bridge, and told to return immediately. Nothing, how-
ever, was heard of him till one o'clock the next morning,
when he was brought back by a policeman in a state of
drunkenness. The story he told was, that after he had
received the money he went into a public-house to have
a pint of beer, and all he recollected afterwards was be-
ing dragged along over Tower-hill. He therefore sup-
posed he had been hocussed and robbed of the money.
It was, however, subsequently ascertained he had left
3/.los. of the money in the care of a landlord of a public-
house in the New-cut.—He was committed for trial.

PRUSSIA.

The second edition of the Cologne Gazette of Sa-
turday states that on the 10th the I\ linistry and the
Assembly of Berlin were both inflexible in adhering
to their previous decisions. The litter had resolved
upon an appeal to the people, nem. dis. The troops,
however, -advanced, surrounded tha hall of sitting,
and precluded the entrance of the members—at the
same time that they allowed free egress. The repre-
sentatives of the people intended to resume their sit-
ting on the 10th. The Burgher Guard maintained,
in conjunction with the Assembly, an attitu.le of
passive resistance. The city was tranquil, and was
occupied by 15,000 of the troops of the line.
The Hamburgh Borsenhalle of the 10th has the
following:—
" Travellers who have arrived here this morning,
from Berlin, by railway, state that no breach of the
peace had taken place."
According to the statement of the Berliner Noel,-
7:ichten, the appointed meeting of the National As -
isel:lady was held on Thursday evening, under the Pre
sideney of M. Von Murtate, at the theatre, wi!hout
any interruption taking place. The meeting proceeded
to the crder of the day, viz., the abolition of certain
dues and custom!, without the substitution of others.
The Assembly then adjourned till nine o'clock this
morning.
According to a notice from the Vice-President
Philipps, the Presidium on Committee intended to
pass the night in turns invtegearll of Sitting.
On the motion of M.
the thanks of the
Assembly were voted to Presidergt: Von Nuride.

Session, and that none shall take place within the
circuit of a thousand paces from the theatre. The
Deputies are to be secure from personal assault, and
all such assaults are to be punished with imprisonment
of from one to ten years.
The Deputy Behnsch, in consequence of three ad-
dresses from Silesia, made the following questions :-
1. Whether the Ministry had cognizance that
the Hungarian military had crossed the Prussian
frontiers ?

2. What steps they intended to take in regard
to these soldiers who had refused to fight in the ranks
of the enemy of the German people against the
conquered liberties of that peop!e, the declared will
of its legal representatives ?
3. Whether it would permit these soldiers, now on
the Prussian territory, to return to Hungary, their
native home ?

NEW COURT OF CRIMINAL
APPEAL.

The new Court, appointed under the important Act
introduced by Lord Campbell last session, for trying
criminal appals from circuit sessions, sat for the first
time on Saturday in the Exchequer Ci:amber. The
Judges appointed to constitute the Court during the
present term were :—The Chief Baron, Mr. jilitief,
Matteson, Mr. Justice Cresswell, Mr. Justice Erie, and
Mr. Justice Maule. Nearly 80 gentlemen of the bar
were present. _

Their Lordships, immediately on taking their seats
upon the bench, proceeded to hear the case of

THE QUEEN V. EMANUAL MASTERS.

Mr. MILLER said he had to submit to the considera-

tion of the Court two questions of law ; first, whether,
under the new Act, the 11th and 12th Vic., c. 78, sec. 1,
questions of criminal law might be reserved by recorders
tor the decision of the Court, and, secondly, whether the
conviction was a good one. The Learned Counsel sup-
ported the conviction, and stated that the Recorder,
before whom the defendant was tried, apprehended that
he had no jurisdiction, ani wished to have the opinion of
the Court upon the subject. It appeared that the Act
applied to prisoners " convicted before any court of
oyer and terminer, or gaol delivery, or court of quarter
sessions," but that no allthion was made to prisoners
tried before recorders. Mr.: Miller, however, held
that as the recorders for boroughs were also ex-officio
justices of the peace, no exception was intended by the
Act with respect to their courts, although there was
some ambiguity in the terms employed in the Ist section.
With respect to the second point, it appeared that the
prisoner was convicted under the 7 and 8 Geo. IV., c. 29,
sec. 47, of embezzlement, and the question was, when
property was received by ono servant, handed to another
in the ordinary course of duty, and then forwarded to
another, whether the appropriation of it by the second
servant amounted to embezzlement.

The COURT was of opinion that recorders had juris-
diction under the Act to refer appeals for the decision of
this Court, and also that if one of the servants alluded
to received the property and appropriated it to his own
use, he was guilty of embezzlement.
The conviction was therefore affirmed.

RAPID CURE of COUGH and DIFFICULTY of BREA.THING by
DR. LOCOCK'S PULMONIC WAFERS.
"Hale, near Liverpool, December 10, 1847.
" Sir,—l was so much oppressed at my chest that when I lay down

RUSSIA AND WALLACHIA.

r On the 16th of September our troops crossed the
Sereth, and proceeded to Bucharest under the com-
mand of General Luder, Commander of the sth corps of
infantry. In the Wallachian Foksch, the avant
guard was received by the Bishop of Eparshie and
the inhabitants with public demonstration of joy.
From this point Colonel Skariatin, the aid-de-camp,
was sent off with four hundred Cossacks to recon-
notire a band of Poles who are in the environs. He
met them on the 20th in the hamlet of Lagotar, and
sent to him a division of twenty Cossacks under
Etorandi Yschourbatof. The Cossacks attacked them
so suddenly that the Poles were only able to return a
few shots, some fled, and the rent defended them-
selves with their unloaded pieces ; they were soon
mastered by the Cossacks, seven were killed, and
twenty-three taken prisoners.
The following is General Luder's report respecting
the movement of the t.oops :
" The avant guard of the troops confided to me ar-
rived at Bucharest on the 28th, and the main body
the 31st of September, with the exception of the di-
vision of General llasford, who had been ordered to
Upper Wallachia. The troops are encamped along
the river which runs round that part of the city that
lies on the left bank of the Dembowizi.

"The avant auard, under the command of Major-
General Danileffsky, fell in on his march to Bucha-
rest, at Quasetheni, with a Turkish division, which
was also bound to Bucharest. After a mutual expres•
sion of goodwill, Major-General Danileffskv invited
the Turkish General to inspect his troops. Yestenlay
I visited the Commissary of the Porte, Fuad Effendi,
as also the commander of the Turkish troops, Oniar
I'acha, who testified their friendly sentiments towards
us, fur determining the division of Bucharest into
two equal parts at the entry of our troops ; and the
Turkish, after much deliberation, fixed upon the wise
Dembowiza. The portion of the city lying on the
left b:lnk of that river is occupied by our troops, and
the right bank by the Turks, whose encampment is
now there.

" I have appointed Major-General Rehfeldt, com-
mander of the 15th Artillery Brigade, commandant
of the portion of the city assigned to us, and to-
morrow the general staff wig enter the city. After
the quartering lists of the troops shall have been
made out, the city, the environs, and the circles will
be assigned to them.
" Yesterday, after entering the city I inspected the
Uhlane Brigade of the sth Light Cavalry division,
which, under the command of Lieutenant-General
Bagratisu Imeretinski had advanced from KiFchinen
to Bucharest, being a distance of 450 werts in nine-
teen days. I found them all in admirable condition,
notwithstanding their forced marches. The horses
had not been overworked, and there were only aia
men on the sick list."—llamburgh Correspondent,

Madrid journals of the 6th inst. have arrived.
The Duke DB Gou has been appointed Ambassador
to Vienna, and the Marquis DR VALDEGAMEMS Am-
bassador to Berlin.

The account of the surprise and capture of ARAD,
the Progressista leader at Huesca, is, it appears, al-
though officially announced, quite incorrect.
A letter from Tafalla, of Nov. 5, says—

" The notice published and affiche in all the villages
and hamlets of the kingdom, and which emanated from
the Captain-General of Saragossa, to the effect that the
Republican and liberating army of Huesca had been
made prisoners without a single man escaping, is a com-
plete falsehood. lam assured of this by the conductor
of the Saragossa diligence, who has just passed through
here on his way to Pampeluna. He is bearer of dis
patches from the same Captain-General to contradict his
propous circular."

COPENITAGEN, Nov. B.—ln the meeting of
the National Assembly yesterday, with closed
doors, the report was continued respecting
the transactions of the Schleswig-Holstein affair.
Count Knath, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, gave
a statement of the relations of Denmark with foreign
countries, since the 26th of November, and the Secre-
tary of the Assembly, Asssessor Ussing, read the
documents relating thereto. The Minister of Marine,
in reply to several interpellatioass, then read a sketch
of the system pursued in the late naval engage-
ments. In the course of the discussion the desire was
expressed that a similar statement should be given
respecting the war by land, upon which the Minister
of War, Tscherning, declared himself ready to sub-
mit such a sketch on the following day.
The Minister of Finance promised to submit a
complete: statement of the finances.— liamburgh

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

Accounts have been received from Vienna to the
7th inst. The greater number of the inhabitants who
had fled from the city during the early days of
October had returned, and the shops were again
opened. Two journals also, the Austrian Lloyd's
and the Presse were allowed to appear. Field Mar-
shal WELDEN, who recently made himself so notorious
by the cruelties he practised in Lombardy and in the
Roman States, has been appointed Governor of
Vienna. The report of the arrest of BEM, MESSEN-
DAUSER, and the other chiefs is not confirmed; in.
deed, it is said that WINDISCHGRATZ has not suceeded
in arresting a single individual of those -whom he
demanded. Dr. SCHUTTE is under the protection of
the American Envoy, who has confided to him some
pretended employment under him. The two prin-
cipal agitators of the committee of students have
claimed the protection of the French Envoy, who has
given them the situation of couriers. M. .MEssaN-
uausna has not yet been arrested, and General BEM
has reached the Hungarian camp. BLUM, the Deputy
to the Frankfort Parliament, has been arrested by the
military commander, but his character of Deputy
will protect him.
