The annals of duelling afford no such ex-
traordinary instance as the following, which we find in a
Swiss Journ :—' A woman of robust frame, aged 66,
residing at Chenes I3ougerie, had been upon terms of

animosity with a baker, for 28 years, and had frequently
challenged him to meet her sword in hand. They had, in
fact, two sevemal combats, from which the Amazon retired

both times wounded. But, nothing daunted, she again
forced her adversary to meet Ler a third time, and they
had a rencontre, a few days since, at Villette, whe❑ the
lair Armida was so severely hurt that for three days her
life was despaired of. She is, however, now fast recover.
ing, and avows her resolution to enter the field again as
soon as she has recovered her strength."

THE CONSTITUENCY OF PORTSMOUTH.
—The Revising Barristers attended at the Portsmouth
_ .

Town Hall on Friday, for the scrutiny of the borough
voters, and on Saturday for the revision of the voters
claiming upon freeholds to vote for the South part of the
county. Little or nothing of party spirit, we rejoice to
say, evinced itself on either occasion. The county votes
for the pariah of Portsea appear to have increased 103, the
numbers on the list last year being 612, and this year
715 ; o❑ the other band, the borough vo'ars in that parish
have decreased 107, the numbers ❑ow being 7045 when
last year they were 901. The true number that ought to
vote, if their assessed and parish rates had been duly paid
up, would have been 1,226. For Portsmouth parish the
county votes have increased, the numbers last year having
been 90, and this year 97 ; our borough voters this year
are 384, and last year, 352.

OBJECTIONS TO VOTERS.—Conformably
to the resolutio❑ come to by the friends of Messrs. Mar-
shall and Macaulay, as mentioned in our last paper, the
whole of the objections to the 220 voters improperly en •
tered upon the overseers' lists, in this township, were
abandoned, and not a single objection was taken before
the revising barrister on Tuesday and Wednesday. O❑
the inquiry, it was found that a large proportion of the
persons against whom objections were entered had an
equitable, though not strictly a legal, claim to the elective
franchise, and it was thought most consistent with the
generally liberal policy of the party not to narrow the
franchise, except when such a course was forced upon
them in self-defence. Various reasons have been assigned
for the course pursued by the Tories last year, in objecting
to nobody, but the true cause is likely to be found in what
may probably be called the hopelessness of the cause.—
Leeds Mercury.

A letter from Genoa, of the 13th instant,
says—" Lieutenant Told, wbo was lately condemned to
death by a courtmartial in this city, was, in pursuance of
his sentence, taken to the place of execution ; but the err-
geant-major of grenadiers, who commanded the detach-
ment of non-commissioned officers appointed to form the
platoon, at the moment when the word ' fire' was to have
been given, addressed his companions, and said—' We are
neither assassins nor executioners, and cannot murder our
brother—imitate me !' He then laid his musket upon

the ground, and every man followed his example. Cira-
vados immediately put them under arrest, and sent to the
prison for five convicts, from whose hands the officer re-
ceived his mortal wound with heroic courage. The set.•
geant-major has been condemned to the hulks for 20
years, and the others for five years."— French Paper.
SCOTTISH MANIFESTATIONS.—For some
time past Mr. Carlyle has made his appearance regularly
every night on the vacant space of ground betwixt the
County Hall and St Giles's Church, and harangued a
continually changing audience with a medley of repeti-
tions. The Saturday evenings have been selected for par-
ticular display. On these nights the " interruptions" of
" the writer's clerk" are only forthcoming, to the annoy-
ance of the neighbourhood ; his screechings, which are
repeated in the course of the evening three or four times,
and lasting from five to ten minutes, attract the people
from the street, who run from all directions to the spot, to
hear what has been so much talked of, but the majority of
the racers " lose the beat," as, by the time they reach,
Mr. Carlyle has resumed his lucubrations, the spirit
having ceased to move " the interrupter," and they being
under the necessity of returnir.g to their more profitable
and industrious avocations. Last Saturday, as the actors
became visible, the Lawnmarket shopboys anticipated
nothing more than their usual routine of sport. Ander-
son was not long in commencing. After impiously hying
claim to Divine authority, to the surprise of all present be
spoke the most arrant nonsense, not in an unknown but a
known tongue—broad Scotch. This was rather too much
for the people to stand without infection : the whole were
now seized with the spirit of " interruption," laughing,
_hi,sing, groaning, shouting " Hear,
hear," indeed cries of
all sorts and sizes, with the enumeration of which we can-
not disgrace our pages, forming, upon the whole, the
most ludicrous, frantic, and uproarious " company of pro-
phets" we have ever heard of. Messrs. Carlyle, Anderson,
and a constant hearer, made their elopement during the
convulsion.—Seotchntan.

The CHAIRMAN shortly addressed them, stating that
the calendar was numerically heavy, containing no less
than 250 prisoners, who, but for the introduction of the
intermediate. Sessions, would have had toretliain in prison
until the October Sessions, at 'a great -9cpense to the
bts
county. This, if any was wanting,:he cn ered a proof
that the new 'arrangement was most ficial to all
parties. The Learned chairman recjueste* ' :the Grand
Jury would take the bills in the order in which they
would be sent to theni, as that would verAntich facilitate
the proceedings of the Court. Half the cases are of a
petty nature, and out of those who are charged with steal
ing there ere little or none of a very aggravated nature.
On the dismissal of the 'thand Jure, the Court ad-
journed for some time, in order- tiefford them an oppor-
tunity of returning the bills. . -,
