LAW INTELLIGENCH.—March 22.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.
THEATRICAL FAILURE.
Among the applicants to the court is Mr. Sberidan
Smith, whose " appearance" has been caused by his
losses as a theatrical manager on the York circuit, and
especially at Hull. He had sustained a loss of 1201. in
a short time, after having engaged several " eminent
actors "at large salaries. He had sustained a further
less of 201. on the English Opera comyany at Hull, and
al-o spent a large sum on a pantomime. The debts in
the schedule are inconsiderable, being under 2001., and
it appears that Mr. Smith, known by the name of
" Swanborough," had received 001. from the proprietors
of theatres in consideration of his losses on the York
circuit.

An order for hearing has been granted.
FAILURE OF A PENNY NEWSPAPER.

The projector of the first penny London newspaper
bas petitioned the Insolvent Debturs Court, abd has ob-
tained an order for hearing. The paper was called the
London Evening News. The insolvency is attributed
partly to the " uncertainty of profit on periodical pub-

THEATRICALS AT COMPIEGNE.

The Messager des Theatres gives the following
account of the theatrical performance which
took Pace Itotely in the presence of the court at
Compiegne :—" At half past eight their Majesties
entered the theatre, already occupied by the
persons invited. The orchestra was reserved for
superior officers, all in grand uniform. In the boxes
at the sides were seated ladies in magnificent
toilettes. The centre boxes were set apart for the
court. The Emperor was in black, and wearing the
grand cordon of the Legion of Honour • the Em-
press wore a white dress with a cloak of crimson
velvet. Their Majesties on entering were received.
with the loudest acclamations. All the seats behind
and near them were filled with the Imperial house-
holds, the ministers and grand dignitaries of the
court. As soon as their Majesties had taken their
seats, the curtain rose for the representation of
Quand l' Amour s'en va,' the performers being
Mines. Guillemin, Saint Marc, and Bodin, with
Felix and Parade. Their Majesties when the cur-
tain fell gave the signal for applause. The Imperial
party then withdrew for half an hour to take re-
freshments, and on their return the curtain again
rose for Le Mari de la Dame do Chosurs.' Arnal,
who has joined the performers of the Vaudeville
theatre, was exceedingly amusing. Mme. Guille-
min also, in the mother of the danseuse, was excel-
lent ' • and in one passage in the first act threw the
whole house, commencing with their Majesties,
into the greatest hilarity. The Empress, in par-
ticular, laughed most heartily, particularly when
the mother of the danseuse exclaims, 6 Ah 1 if Napo-
leon had only listened to my advice!' `You were
acquainted with the Emperor?' No, but Icould
have known him saw me at Berlin, when I played
Eucharis in " Telemaque." He even remarked me
and sent to compliment me by M. Cardet.' Their
Majesties were highly pleased, and of course so
were the court and the persons invited. The re-
presentation terminated at half-past eleven ; and
when the performers were partaking of the excel-
lent supper provided for them, Count Bacciocchi,
grand master of the ceremonies, came and compli-
mented them on the part of their Majesties. At
half-past one in the morning a special train whirled
back to Paris the amusing performers who had en-
joyed the satisfaction of exciting the laughter of

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

Contradictions continue to be exchanged be-
tween Paris and Vienna oo the subject of the
Principalities and the intentions of the Porte.
At Paris, people insist that the Porte has re-
quired the withdrawal of the Austrians ; at
Vienna, the contrary is obstinately maintained.
London, England, 1856-10-30

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin in the Nuremberg Corres-
pot dent says :—" The replies of several govern-
ments of the Confederation to the late circular
note of Prussia, and particularly those of Bava'ria
and Saxony, aim at guaranteeing the Convention
from any active intervention against Switzerland.
But as Prussia has never intended to act seriously
against that power the views of these states will
give rise to no difficulty."
London, England, 1856-10-30

PAYING OFF AN OLD SCORE.

A strange affair is related in a journal of the
Dordogne. A young man named Timon, of Monte-
wrier, in that department, owed a peasant named
Desvergnes, with whom he was on intimate terms,
35f., and as he was unable to pay he proposed
to Desvergnes to assist him in stealing three hecto-
litres of wheat from his (Timon's) father's barn, and
to take them in payment. Desvergnes having ac-
cepted the proposition, Thursday night was fixed.
for the robbery, and at six o'clock in the evening of
of that day Desvergnes went to Timon's 111:t.
Timon, to while away the time until the night
should be sufficiently advanced to enable

with the butt end of his gun. At length Desvergnes,
though weak from his wounds and exertions, re-
solved to make a desperate effort to save his life by
swimming to the other side of the river, and in
this he succeeded. He was afterwards able to crawl
to his own house, which fortunately was at no
great
_
distance. There medical assistance was procured
for him, but it was found that his life was in serious
danger. Timon was arrested, and being confronted

AUSTRIA.

A letter from Vienna of the 24th, in the BourseGazette of Berlin,
says :--" M. de Budberg and
Baron de Bourqueney have during the last few
days had several conferences with Count Buol, the
object being the meeting of the Conferences in
Paris. Russia is very anxious that it should take
place as soon as possible, and on this point she is in
accord with France. But when the Cabinet of St.
Petersburg demanded that the difficulties relative
to Bolgrad, the Isle of Serpents, &c., should be
regulated by the parties who signed the Treaty of
Paris, it was only one of those means of causing
delays which form part of the Russian policy. She
hopes that the Conferences cannot take place so
soon, and wishes to please France by urging the
meeting. When the Conference is really convoked
she will find plenty of excuses for delaying it. Our
Cabinet perfectly understands this policy of Russia,
and will do all in its power to defeat it."
A second letter from Vienna, in the Post Ampt
Gazette of Frankfort, says :--" A report is current
here that Prince Petrulla, the Neapolitan Ambas-
sador, had delivered to the Cabinet of Vienna the
reply to the propositions made by General Martini
at iNaples. We aro able to contradict this state-
ment in the most positive snanner, no note of the
kind having been delivered to Count Buol."
A third letter from Vienna, in the Cologne
Gazette, says :—" The secret treaty between the
Porte and Austria, of which much has been lately
spoken, does really exist ; but it concerns the re-
organisation of the Principalities, and not their
occupation."

THE PRINCIPALITIES.

Contradictions continue_ to be exchanged be-
tween Paris and Vienna oo the subject of the
Principalities and the intentions of the Porte.
At Paris, people insist that the Porte has re-
quired the withdrawal of the Austrians ; at
Vienna, the contrary is obstinately maintained.

SPAIN.

The Madrid Gazetteofthe2itti contains the de-
cree, mentioned by telegraph, which fixes the float-
ing debt at 640,000,000 reals. The report of the
President of the Council (Narvaez) on which the
decree is founded, and which is published in the
Gazette, sets forth various reasons to show that the
amount of 440,000,000 reals, at which the floating
debt had been fixed was insufficient ; it besides de-
clares that the receipts put down in the budget for
the present year are notoriously insufficient to meet
the obligations of the government, and that conse-
quently the latter is preparing plans for establish-
ing "permanent taxes and revenues." The minis-
terial papers publish a declaration "by authority"
to the effect that, whatever the opinions of the
present Minister of Finance on economic questions
may be, he is convinced that the government owes
protection to national manufacturers, and that con-
sequently the Catalonian manufacturers have no-
thing to fear from him. Owing to some differences
of opinion with the Government, the municipality
of Madrid had talked of giving in its resignation,
but after an interview with the Minister of the
Interior it abandoned its design. The nature of
the dissension is not stated.

PARIS, WEDNESDAY.
Tho Debats contains the following observations

on the recent reconciliation of the Cabinets of Lon-
don and Vienna :

" European politics are now subject to singular trans-
formations, and the execution of the treaty of Paris
prepares for us each day some fresh surprise. One of the
most curious is the reconciliation that has been accom-
plished between England and Austria, which the jour-
nals of the two countries now confide to Europe. The
memory is too full of the bitter and violent polemics in-
dulged in only a short time ago by the English journals,
with respect to what they termed the Machiavelism
and duplicity of Austrian policy. But now everything is
changed; the most important English journal, the Times,
openly defends this very policy, and it asserts that the
Cabinet of Vienna has not the best reasons in the world
for not evacuating the Danubian principalities. The
organs of the Austrian government opine on their side
that England has no less excellent reasons for main-
taining her fleet in the Black Sea. This is not all ;
they applaud to the skies the particular claims acquired
by the English Government and its representative
at Vienna to the friendship of Austria by combining
their mutual efforts against the ur'on of the principa-
lities, formally supported in the Congress of Paris by
the first plenipotentiary of England, Lord Clarendon.
At Vienna the game is now considered as won. We do
not know the extent to which the article in the Morning
Post, which states that the British fleet will remain
in the Black Sea until the execution by Russia of the
conditions imposed by the treaty of peace, represents
the views of the British Government. But in one point
matters are clear. Notwithstanding the declarations to
the contrary which arrive from Viel.na, we persist in
repeating that Turkey has demanded simultaneously
and at repeated intervals the evacuation of the princi-
palities by Austria, and of the Black Sea by England.
If the steps taken by the Porte had not the character of
a protest in form, they expjessed at least its desire in
the clearest manner."

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin in the Nuremberg C orres-
pw. dent says :—" The replies of several govern-
ments of the Confederation to the late circular
note of Prussia, and particularly those of Bavaria
and Saxony, aim at guaranteeing the Convention
from any active intervention against Switzerland.
But as Prussia has never intended to act seriously
against that power the views of these states will
give rise to no difficulty."

HAYMARKET THEATRE.

The great success which attended the resuscitation of
"The Inconstant" and " Wild Oats," with Mr. Mur-
doch as the hero, probably induced Mr. Buckstone to
essay another revival last night, that of Reynolds' "The
Dramatist," in which Mr. Murdoch also sustained the
chief character. The piece was, on the whole, extremely
well acted ; whilst Mr. Buckstone, Mr. Murdoch, and
Mrs. E. Fitzwilliam, as Ennui, Vapid, and Marianne,
were especially admirable. The curtain fell amid enthu-
siastic applause ; and the general result of this new
experiment upon the theatrical taste of the present day
may therefore be described as felicitous. The perfor-
mances on this occasion were for the benefit of that most
spirited and intelligent artiste, Mrs. E. Fitzwilliam,
who has been for some time past an established favourite
with the Haymarket audience.

DEATH OF THE COUNTESS DE SALI3.—The Countess de
Sails died on the 27th inst. at Avignon, in the south of
France. Her ladyship was at the time on her way to
Rome, where she proposed to pass the winter.

NEUCHATEL.

The Build, in allusion to the question of Neu-
chatel, states that the Federal Council has
resolved to draw up a detailed memorial on the
subject, to be laid before the Congress. General
Dufour and the inspector of the Federal artillery
have, it adds, been sent for to Berne in order to
give their advice on a new organisation of the
Federal army in divisions and brigades, and on
the creation of a general Staff. The plan of this
organisation will shortly be laid before the Federal
Council and rendered public.

'AYING OFF AN OLD SCORE.

A strange affair is related in a journal of the
Dordogne. A. young man named Timon, of Monta-
grier, in that department, owed a peasant named
Desvergnes, with whom he was on intimate terms,
35f., and as he was unable to pay he proposed
to Desvergnes to assist him in stealing three hecto-
litres of wheat from his (Timon's) father's barn, and
to take them in payment. Desvergnes having ac-
cepted the proposition, Thursday night was
for the robbery, and at six o'clock in the evening of
of that day Desvergnes went to Timon's
