GERMAN PAPTMS

EIIFCHATEL. —The Deputies of the Legislative Council
trbate been received at Berlin in the most distinguished
user by the King's Ministers. The King's visit to
17,wedt, and, subsequently, the reviews at Magdeburg
414ttterlin, have not yet allowed an opportunity for pre-
wilf{ them to the King, or for the important question
; 'eh is the subject of their mission, to be discussed before
ttilklajQety ; hut they have received before-hand, officially
Well as privately, from the Ministers, the unequivocal
tt‘tnee, that the King will never forsake the inhabitants
efchatel ; that the preservation of that principality
it it thing in which his heart and his honour are
i.terested, and that the consent of the country had only
ger,-
ased his regard and good will towards it. All that the
ii man journals have hitherto stated of a different nature
vtste invention. On the 17th M. Ancillon, Secretary
60 tate, wrote to the deputation, The King intends not
if Y.,t° see ,he deputies of his beloved and faithful people
irnlSeurchatel, but to hear what they have to say on the
or:ertaTit Matter which has brought them hither, in
to: to bear from themselves the wishes which they are
trbielia:','"ed to express, as well as the motives on

li'o„n from himself ; but as the reviews leave the
but little time this week, he requests the gentlemen to
a little patience."

LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 8, 1833.

The German Papers contain little or no news
of moment. They mention that the Deputies
of the Legislative Council of the Principality
of Neufchatel have been received at Berlin in
the most favourable manner, and have received
an assurance from the King's Ministers, offi-
cially as well as privately, that his MAJESTY
will never forsake them, for that the preservation
of the principality is a thing in which his heart
and honour are alike interested. The same
papers mention also that the Allgenzeine lei-
lung of October 2, contains a long and detailed
statement of the composition and strength of the
Germanic Confederation.

The Spanish Papers give official particulars
respecting the death of FERDINAND, and the im-
mediate assumption of the Regency by the
QUEEN, hut contain no additional intelligence.

We see it announced that Lord ALTHORP'S
early return to town has been occasioned by the
associations which have been formed in the
metropolis to resist the payment of the assessed
taxes. We should be much grieved to find that
the mistaken men concerned in them have been
able to give his Lordship any serious uneasiness,
for we are persuaded that they will never succeed
in inducing any large body of the community to
follow their example. There is too much sound
sense among the middle classes, especially of the
metropolis, to take up this Irish mode of settling
a question of finance. Had they adopted it be-
fore the Reform Bill had given them a voice
in the Legislature, there might have been more
plausible grounds urged in defence of the
passive resistmce system of the Unionists. The
house and window taxes must be repealed next
session ; their forming part and parcel of the
system by which the proprietors of land have
endeavoured to throw all the burdens of the
state upon the inhabitants of towns, is sufficient
to condemn them. We grant that they are
in principle taxes on property ; but the complaint
always urged b moderate and sensible people

The sport at the ensuing Epsom October
Meeting is expected to be unusually good, under the spi.
rited management of Baron de Tessier, the acting Steward.
The races take place on Wednesday and Thursday next.

OLYMPIC.--Last night there was a distur-
bance at this theatre in consequence of the absence of
Madame Vestris, who was prevented,
by illness, from un-
dertaking her part in the performances. Mr. Vining
attempted in vain to allay the storm, by exhibiting the
certificate of a doctor, in proof that the excuse was not a
mere pretext. Even Liston, with all his popularity,
attempted to subdue the ill-temper of the house by his
drollery without success. No apology and no person
would be listened to. The police tried their hand at a
pacification also, but they were not more successful than
the performers ; for though they succeeded in removing a
few noisy people from the gallery, the elements of uproar
still remained. Miss Pincott was the substitute for
Madame Vestris, and she endeavored to read the part,
leaving out the music. But all would not do. The Prima
Donna was absent, and her admirers would not he per-
suaded that she was ill. It was finally arranged that those
might quit the theatre who pleased without fort: icing
their money, and many were about to avail themselves of
the understanding, when they found that they could only
get orders of admission for another night, it being con-
trary to theatrical etiquette to return money upon any
occasion. Here was a new cause for discontent and
clamour. In short the whole evening was devoted to dis-
cord, which, by a sort of tunic, converted actors into au-
ditors, anti auditors into actors, front the moment that
the fact of the heroine's absence became known.

At eight o'clock on Monday morning an im-
mense concourse of persons assembled in the Market-place
to witness a trial of skill in the sword exercise between 20
members of the Malineshury troop and 20 of the Devizes
troop. The challenge, we understand, was given by one
of the officers of the Malnnsbury troop, against the whole
regiment ; and accepted, w'thout the slightest hesitation,
by Mr. T. Estcourt, the Cornet of the Devizes troop.
The result has proved that Mr. Estcourt had good grounds
for his confidence in the skill of his men. The Maims -
bury troop first per ormed their exercise, and, it is but
justice to state, in a very creditable manner. The regula-
rity and precision, however, of the Devizes troop, left them
far, very far behind ; and the umpire was not a moment in
awarding his decision. The Cornet of each troop went
through the exercise with the men. There was a bet
depending which Mr. Estcourt very handsomely presented
to the members of the troop engaged in the trial.—
Devizes Gazette.

INCENDIARISAI AT BASINGSTOKE.—WC
deeply regret. that it has again fallen to our lot to record
two diabolical acts of ineendiarism in this neighbourhood.
On Tuesday night last, about ten o'clock, the farming
stock on Apsley Farm, near the Earl of Portsmouth's seat,
Hurstbourn Park, was discovered to be on fire. In a
short time the whole of the stock and outbuildings was
consumed, with the exception of one barn and the dwel
ling-house. The loss is supposed to amount to 3,0001.
The farm is Lord Portsmouth's property, and occupied
by his tenant, Mr. Wood. A man on whom suspicion has
fallen is in custody, and we sincerely trust the author of the
act may be discovered. On Friday night Ls', a very
large oat-rick, the property of Mr. Dii ker, of Bentwortb,
was totally destroyed by fire. This was also the act of an
incendiary, and a large reward is offered for the discovery
of the critninal.--Berkshire Chronicle.
