orders of the corporal. In the meantime the slave
had slipped out of his hiding-place, and sought an-
other refuge, but he was at length recovered and
taken back to Grand Bassatn. On the day ap-
pointed for the fete all the people assembled;
the poor victim was tied to a tree, and the
people commenced their savage dances round him, to
the sound of the tamtam. Bach of the warriors then
gave him a wound, and, when at length death released
him from his sufferings, his head was cut off and
stuck on a pole in the middle of the village. The
body was afterwards cut up and thrown into a
large cauldron, which had been prepared for the
purpose, and boiled, and each of the persona
present took a share. The native corporal who
had been tampered with to give up tho slave was
among the invited guests, and appeared to enter with
great avidity into the horrible scene. The remainder of
the day was spent in dancing round the head on the
pole, which was afterwards taken down and kicked like
a ball through the village by the savages. The com-
mandant of the French squadron on the coast called
on the Chief Inter to explain his conduct,
and a force was stationed off the Grand Bassam,
with the intention of burning it in the event of his lon-
ger refusing to give satisfaction for his conduct. At the
Diet moment, and just when the attack on the village was
about to commence, Miter sent a person with the amount
of fine demanded-20 ounces of gold. He also agreed
to deliver a certain number of oxen and sheep to the
French factory."

FRANCE.

The Journal des Debats quizzes the proceedings of
the Peace Congress after the following amusing
fashion :

"We see, by the English journals, that the Con-
gress of Peace has opened its sittings at Exeter Hall,
in London. We dare not promise it a very great
success in presence of the other Congress of Peace,
much more positive and much more practical, called
the Exhibition. We have not yet seen our old
acquaintance, Red-skin, the Indian of good com-
plexion, who took last year to Frankfort his calumet of
peace. If he had been present, he would, perhaps, have
prevented the massacre of the innocents, of which we
have to complain. We saw in the Exhibition, in the
French part, a collection of little soldiers, in colour,
sent by Silberman, of Strasburg. There are cavalry, in-
fantry, artillery, and chasseurs of Vincennes, in all the
eclat of their uniforms: you can buy 400 men, infantry or
cavalry, for 20f.; it is a permanent army at a cheap rate.
The English, who have not, fortunately for themselves
many soldiers, were not aware how many had entered
their territory under the cover of free-trade; they did
not suspect that horse of Troy, introduced within their
walls, machina inyens, faeta armis. The Congress of Peace
has directed a murderous artillery on this army of painted
pasteboard. We cannot say how many have been left
on the field; since the famous battle of petits pates on the
banks of the Euphrates, under the direction of Fourier,
we have not heard of such carnage. The Congress of
Peace has then voted unanimously as all those of a Con-
gress of Peace ought to be against pasteboard soldiers
and wooden swords. M. Delbruck was the first to call for
the censure of the Congress on play things,which familia-
rise children with ideas of war and battle, Mr. Cobden, a
serious man, took up this luminous idea, and made a es-
thetic address to mothers of families; Mr. Cobden,
Member of Parliament, solemnly ranged in battle the
red Goats and blue coats; ho described in picturesque
language the blue coats rushing on the red coats,
and made his auditory shudder at the sight of so
much blood in effigy. It was specially to French
mothers that the eloquent speech was ad-
dressed; for it is particularly in France that the de-
plorable mania of playing at soldiers prevails. And the
Congress, as we said, unanimously voted a motion invit-
ing mothers of families not to give any more pasteboard
soldiers to their children. Henceforth they must choose
for presents little instruments of labour and manufac-
tures, gingerbread ploughs, chocolate locomotives, illu-
minated tables of Pythagoras, and there will then be
nations of little sheep, grazing peacefully, protected by
the crook of their shepherd, to the music of the pipe.
There are, however, very serious, very honourable, avid
very respectable men in the Congress, from whom we
demand pardon for speaking so lightly of their childish-
ness. But, seriously, which are the greatest children—
those who make playthings of such speeches, or those
who make playthings of painted soldiers?"

PIRATES IN THE CHINA SEAS.

The following is an extract from a private letter:—
" On the 26th of March Captain Hely, commanding
Messrs. Dent and Co.'s store-ship the Amite, stationed
in the river Min, whilst proceeding up the river to the
town of Foochow, in twc Chins boats with eight men,
was attacked by six large piratical junks, carrying
40 to 60 men each. Taey commenced a heavy fire
and made sail upon him evidently with the view
of running his boats down, but a well directed and con-
tinued fire from a large swivel duck gun and muskets
by his crews disinclined the pirates to close quarters,
though their boarding nettings were triced up eight
feet high. The boat following his own was, however,
intercepted by one of the junks, and one of
the Lascars we s knocked overboard. The hazard
was great, but there was no other means to save the
man's life. He ranged his boat right athwart the junk's
bow, gave her a raking, and engaged in hand in hand
fight with the crew. Tie struggle was desperate; be-
sides the continual fire of small arms they heaved stones
and stink-pots (pots filled with powder-bags, having
slow matches attached, which are broken by being
thrown on an object and explode) upon his crew, and
wrested the pikes from two of his men's bands. The
Lascar was, however, picked up alive, a tow-line was
made fast, and Captain Hely bad the triumph of sailing
both his boats away and proceeding ou his course, the
light wind giving him a superiority over the heavy junks.
Considering the immense force of the pirates and the time
the engagement lasted (half an hour) the escape of Captain
Hely and his small crew was miraculous. Seven were,
however, severely wounded whilst alongside the junk by
spears and pikes; he himself was struck on the head by a
stone, carrying away his cap, but without injuring him,
and one man only escaped unhurt. Captain Hely has
no doubt that the pirates had received timely notice of
his intention to visit Focchow, for the shore was crowded
with spectators watching the contest and cheering on
the pirates. His fire proved effective, for the Chinese
authorities, who were taking measures to secure the pi-
rates, informed him that five were killed and forty
wounded, many of them severely."

GERMANY.

A letter from Berlin mentions a report that the
Prussian Government does not intend to persist in
demanding that the province of Prussia and Posen
shall cease to form part of the Germanic Confedera-
tion.

The Wurtemburg journals contradict the report
given by the Allgemeine Zeitung of the sitting of the
Chamber of Representatives, and declare that neither
Wurtembng nor Bavaria has had an intention cf de-
nouncing the treaty of the Zollverein. The Minister
Vox Krim.? confined himself to the following re-
marks :-1. That before the term of the expiration of
the treaty (December, 1852) there would probably
be no other conference of the Members of the German
Customs' Union. 2. That it was very probable if a
denunciation was made in some quarters, negotiations
would be:commenced for revi-ing the treaty ; and
that, finally, in that case the Government of Wur-
temburg would, as in times past, be in favour of a
modification of the tariff in a protectionist point of
view.

" A CONFLICT wrrii CLOSED DOORS.

" We no longer doubted what was to be the winding I
up of the negotiation. The air was filled with the elec-
tricity of anger. Hate kindled hate, and vengeance
WAS burning in every eye.
" The Indians scowled at us, glancing malignantly out
of their oblique orbs. There was triumph, too, in their
looks, for they believed themselves far stronger than we !
" On the other side eat the hunters quivering under is
double indignation—l say double. I can hardly explain
what I mean. They had never before been so braved by
Indians. They had all their lives been accustomed—
partly from bravado and partly from actual experience
—to consider the red men their inferiors in subtlety and
courage; and to be thus bearded by them filled the
hunters, as 1 have said, with a double indignation. It

THE LATE MURDER 1N BELGIUM.

The sale of a certain portion of the estate of Bitre-
mont, at Bury, in Belgium, belonging to the condemned
Count de Bocarme, took place on Monday last before M.
Dugnolle, notary at Baugnies. It was by the special
order of the Count that the sale was effected. The
land was divided into twenty-one lots, but only
about a third was disposed of, and they fetched
good prices. The remainder is to be put up
for sale on a subsequent occasion. The bidders
were mostly the small farmers or landowners of the
neighbourhood. It was only on the 10th October last
that Count de Bocarme came into possession of the es-
tate of Bitremont, though his father allowed him to live
'on it. Previous to that time he bad, in addition to his
wife's income, a certain sum annually from his father;
when the latter made the division of his property
amongst his children, the Count's share was about
240,000 f. Whilst the trial was going on, the Count
and Countess de Bocarme joined in raising a loan for
supplying their pecuniary wants and paying certain
pressing obligations, and they signed a deed autho-
rising the sale of a portion of the estate, to secure pay-
ment. It was to cause the payment of this advance
that the Count pressed on the sale. But no sooner was
the trial ouer, than the Countess, being acquitted, noti-
fied to the notary that sho revoked what she had done.
The Count, however, persisted in authorising the sale.
Madame do Bocarme's wish was to sell the chateau of
Grandmeta, and other houses belonging to her brother,
and to preserve the Bitremont estate intact. Finding
that the notary declined to postpone the sale, she sent
him a summons by huissier, but he paid no attention
to it. On the 3d, as already stated, she arrived at Tour-
ney, and went to the hotel where her brother used to put
up. She left the town amidst the hooting of the popu-
lace in the evening of that day, and proceeded, accom-
panied by her son and a chambermaid, to the house of M.
Dugnolle, at Baugnies. She was not expected by him, and,
at half-past ten, went to Bury, at a distance of three kilo-
metres, and slept in the house of Mr. Laurent, a notary.
In the morning she walked with her son and chamber-
maid across the fields to the chateau of Bitremont, and
wandered for some time about the old building. though
the traces of her brother's murder still exist. Her
manners were very
easy, and her toilette elegant; but
though she appeared in excellent health, her features
were pale and contracted. She afterwards went to

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sra,—iour paper-of Friday contained a paragraph
relating to an article which you had copied from the
Sherborne Journal, and expressing your reproach of it,
in a manner that shows me you had been placed in pos-
session of just as much information, and no more, as
would give my statement the colour of a fabrication. I
trust, therefore, you will do me the justice of allowing
me to state the facts on which I consider I was justified
in announcing the dissolution of the Sherborne Mercury.
A few years ago a new paper was started in Yeovil, en-
titled the Yeovil Times, and on Tuesday week para-
graphs appeared simultaneously in the Yeovil Times and
the Sherborne Mercury, to the effect that those papers
were about to be amalgamated, and for the future would
be published as one sheet at the office of the Yeovil
Times, in Yeovil. Now here was a fact announced by
the proprietors, that the publication of one of these
papers was about to be discontinued, and that there
would no longer be a Mercury printed in Sherborne, but
from the effice of the Yeovil Times a weekly sheet would
issue as usual. Surely, under these circumstances, I should
not have been justified in saying that the Yeovil Times had
gone to the wall, yet one of the two papers having be-
come defunct it became my duty to announce it as an
article of news. _ _

Some years ago I remember there was a True Sun as
well as a Sun paper published in London, but your en-
lightened principles eclipsed it, and you triumphantly
bore off its remains to your own office. I fear I should
give you great offence if I affirmed that the True Sun
still lived to share the laurels of your well-earned tame.
I am Sir, &c.,

JOURNAL."

We attended last evening the Literary and Scien.

tific Institute, in Aldersgate-street, to hear a selection of
national melodies sung by Mr. Milne, the Scotch vocalist.
We were by no means strangers to Mr. Milne or his style
of singing, but we confess ourselves pleased beyond our
anticipations with the evening's entertainment. The memory
of poor Wilson is still fresh in our minds, and we would not
do injustice to the dead to gratify the ambitious views of
the living, but we are bold to say that, in many respects, Mr.
Milne even surpasses his distinguished predecessor. The
manner in which the business of the evening was conducted
was alike creditable to Mr. Milne and the managers of the
Institute.
