AUSTRIA AND FRANCE.

A Paris letter in the Independance of Brussels
says :—" If unfortunately war should break out be-
tween Austria and France, a corps d'armee of the
latter power would daubtless be directed towards
Piedmont by Mont Cenis. This forms a matter of
serious consideration in the Federal Council. Ac-
cording to the final act of the congress of Vienna
and the treaty of Paris of the 20th Nov., 1815, a
large portion of the territory of Savoy is comprised
in the Swiss neutrality, as recognised and guaran-
teed by the great Powers. In case of war, it is for-
mally interdicted to any foreign army to traverse
that neutral territory, or to take up a position
there, with the exception of the army of Switzer-
land, charged to watch over its inviolability. It
was lately stated that a provisional and conditional
contract had been entered into between the French
Government and the Sardinian Railway Company
for conveying, in case of war, French troops towards
Mont Cenis, and this line is constructed in the
zone rendered neutral by the public law of Europe
from the bridge of Culoz on the Rhone to the
neighbourhood of Aix-les-Bains. This circumstance
has thrown the Federal Government into great per-
plexity, and a few days since formed the object of
a communication to the Sardinian Minister at
Borne. Dr. Kern, its Minister at Paris, has also
been charged to notify to the French Government
the formal opposition of Switzerland to the con..

JAMAICA.

The Executive Committee are procuring informa-
tion of the imports from and the exports to the
United States at the port of Falmouth ; and they
have also made inquiries as to what facilities can
be afforded at the wharves in that town for
the coaling steamers. This is being done with a
view, no doubt, to the making of arrangements, if
practicable, that Falmouth shall have the benefit of
an occasional if not a regular visit from the Ame-
rican steamers expected to touch at the island,
should any company accept the offer made by the
Legislature last session.
The weather during the fortnight had been un-
usually wet, and the rains have been very general.
In the coffee-growingdistricts the weather has been
remarkably propitious, and good crops are looked
forward to. The public health continues unfavour
able, a sort of epidemic fever prevailing in the
south side of the island.
The news from Porto Rico states that a slaver
had run ashore in the neighbourhood of Humacao,
but there had been no loss of life, although she was
on some dangerous rocks. The vessel is said to be
American built, and the number of Africans on
board is estimated at from 600 to 1,100.
The news from Hayti is satisfactory.

FRANCE.

PARIS, THURSDAY.
The report is current here that Austria has made
counter-proposals to Lord Cowley, which had been
supported by Prussia. It is asserted that the vessel's
had left which were to convey the troops back to
France.

State apartments are ordered to be got ready at
Fontainebleau. It is whispered that some impor-
tant personage is expected soon to be the tenant.
Who can it be ? every one asks. It can hardly be
the Emperor of Russia--certainly not the Emperor
of Austria—and it is very unlikely that the Prince
Regent of Prussia is coming just now. Can it be
the Pope ? Pius VII. was once the occupant of
these old walls, which witnessed his captivity and
the abdication of his captor. We also hear that
orders, are sent to Cherbourg to complete the Impe-
rial yacht Aigle, to arm and prepare her to sail on

the 15th April ; and that the furniture for the Im-
perial apartments on board the Aigle is ready, and
will be sent to Cherbourg at the end of the present

month.

BOURSE, March3.—The Vienna quotations having
'arrived with a fall of 1 per cent. on the Metalliques,
the French funds at first declined, but afterwards
rallied on a report that the Austrian Cabinet had
given Lord Cowley counter-propositions. Threes,
after having been done at 67fr. 35c., rallied to
67fr. 60c., and are now at 67fr. 40c. Mobilier
varied from 750 fr. to 740 fr. ; Austrian, 510 fr. to

WORSHIP-STRET T.— -George Avery, 62 years
of age, formerly a Iterge nt in the G division of
police, was charged Ivith attempting to commit
suicide by cutting his _tin oa t with a razor.
The unfortunate man sa yid that a series of misfor-
tunes had impelled hiim to t tttempt bis life. The
immediate cause was havir ig been refused relief on
application at a workhow le. He had a family of
six children, and his wife had. left him in his old
age. His sons and daugch 2rs were married, some
residing in the country mid! others in London, but
he felt quite abandoned.
Mr. D'Eyncourt directed the prisoner to be re-
manded, that inquiries miA Tht be made, and his
family informed of what had occurred.
This is the third attempt )f a similar character
made by the prisoner.

CLERKENWELL.—Wm.; Richards, an omnibus
driver, residing at 32, Radnor% -street, Chelsea, was
charged with unlawfully using- : abusive and insult-
ing language towards George Jordan, whereby a
breach of the peace might have 1 been occasioned.
Mr. Beard, who appeared f or the prosecution,
said the complainant was a tin iekeeper in the em-
ploy of the London General ( )mnibus Company,
and on Monday, the 21st of Fel )., he was keeping
time at the Star and Garter Kiugsland, when
Richards was there touting and l annoying passen-
gers who were getting into t he company's omni-
buses. The complainant told h iim to desist, when
the defendant became very abusive, and calledgthe
complainant a ticket-of-leave n ian. This the de-
fendant had done on several o ecasions, and there-
fore he (Mr. Beard) hoped that an example would
be made to prevent such annoy ance for the future.
Witnesses having been calk d, who proved the
above,
Mr. Tyrwhitt said he would put a stop to such
annoyance, and fined the defend cant 20s. and costs.
The money was paid.

PATENT COUCHES, &C., FOR AN INDIAN PRINCE.
Mr. Alderman, the eminent medicalmechanician, of Soho,
kas just completed an elaborate order for Mahah Rajah,
which has for its object the inducing for that loyal and ex-
cellent prince, " the weary world's best medicine, sleep."
To say that Mr. Alderman may have succeeded in this,
when we hear how afflicted is this illustrious and wealthy
would be presumptuous ' • but certainly the care, the
tenderness, and the solicitude of a nurse could not be more
closely imitated than is wonderfully effected by the inge-
nious and simple contrivances attached to the couches and
chairs purposely constructed by Mr. Alderman.—Morning

DEMERARA.

Since the departure of the last packet the Court
of Policy has passed an ordinance to further en-
courage immigration from China. The object of the
ordinance is to extend and continue the operation
of the last ordinance (No. 17 of 1845) beyond the
present year. It is specially provided that, after
the present season, a due proportion of females
must be sent, either with each vessel despatched
with male immigrants, or they may be sent in
separate ships. The governor will not direct the
payment of the passage money of any Chinese
labourers who may leave Hong Kong after the
first day of April next unless the master of the
vessel claiming the same shall produce a certificate
from the emigration agent at the port of embarka-
tion, showing that the proportion of females has
been duly shipped in such manner as may have
been so directed. The governor is authorised to
pay a portion of the passage money of any Chinese
females introduced into the colony at the rate
of 50 dols. for each adult. The female immi-
grants are not to be compelled to labour on the
plantations to which they may be allotted. There
is no doubt that if a proper proportion of females
be sent out to this colony immigration from China
will be popular among the Chinese ; and as they
will be permanent settlers in the country they will
benefit the colony far more than the Indian coolies,
who come here only for a limited time, and are then
sent back to their own country at the public ex-
pense. The Chinese who are now in the colony
have thriven well. They are very industrious
people, and are in very comfortable circumstances,
having amassed, during the few years they have
been here, far more wealth than they would have
obtained during a lifetime at home. Were tens of
thousands of their fellow•countrymen to come here
they would all do equally well. So vast are the
undeveloped resources of this country that, were
every unit of the population multiplied by thou-
sands, there would be ample room and verge
enough for all.
Her Majesty's steamer Styx arrived here on the
29th ultimo, with two companies of the 49th Regi-
ment, and on the following morning returned to
Barbadoes with the detachment which had been
stationed in this colony for nearly twelve months
past.
The weather during the fortnight has been ex-
cessively wet, and much. injury has been done to
the growing canes and the provision crops. In
some places the latter have been totally destroyed
by the excessive rains, which are unusual at this
period of the year.
Trade among the merchants is dull. Shipping
is abundant, and freights consequently continue
very low.

CORN EXCHANGE.

Although the supply of English wheat hero to-day was
only limited, we have to report a slow inquiry for most
kinds. Compared with Monday, however, no quotable
chango took place in prices.

Foreign wheat—the imports of which continue on a full
average scale—was dull, but not cheaper.
Floating cargoes of grain maintained their previous

value.

The show of barley was limited, and all descriptions
commanded a steady inquiry, at very full prices.
Malt changed hands to a moderate extent, at last week's

quotations.

There was a fair demand for oats and prices were well
supported.

Both beans and peas were a dull inquiry.
Flour sold to a fair extent, on former terms.

The Gazette de Savoie says :—" We are assured

that the lists of officers prepared at the Ministry of
War are for an effective strength of 100,000 men,
exclusive of the rifle corps and the military marine.
In addition to that force, the kingdom will have
about 600,000 national guards, completely equipped,
a sixth part of which, in case of need, may be mo-
bilised, as was recently done with the battalions of
Genoa and Turin. The military contingent of Cen-
tral Italy is not included in the above, and its active
army is about 30,000 men."

NAPLES.

A communication from Naples of the 12th says :

M. Ajossa, formerly intendant of Salerno, is
now the influential man of the Minissry. It is he
who has brought about the dismissal of M. Go-
verna, the prefect of police, whose excessive zeal
had excited ill-feeling against the Government.
The warlike preparations are proceeding with un-
remitting vigour. The corps d'armee now con-
sists of 22,000 men, and is to be further increased
to 30,000. Placards have been posted up this
morning to give a stimuius to the enrolling of
volunteers. Gen. Pianelli has removed his head-
quarters to Teramo. More troops have marched
from Gaeta. The new decree which prohibits
pecuniary exemptions, and calls upon every Nea-
politan not legally exempt to serve in-person or
provide a substitute who has been in the army,
continues to excite great discontent. The steamer
Hellespont, which went ashore off Pausilippo, and
afterwards sold for a mere trifle, has been broken
to pieces by the sea on the rock where she
struck.

BIiITISII POSSESSIONS.

LAW INTELLIOENCE.--( THIS DAY.)

SHERIFFS' COURT.
(Before Mr, Nem)
DEMURRAGE-SCOTCD: A:ND ENGLISH LEGAL PRACTICE-

SUN OFFICE, Six a' Clack.

REYNOLDS V. CLAY.

IPSWICH I?4CES-(THIS _DAY.)

This was an action to recover £5 demurrage of a barge,
laden with piles for some works at Westminster.

Mr. Buchanan, for plaintiff, called a witness who stated
that the piles were shipped at Glasgow, by a firm there to
which defendant acted as London agent.
Dacndant denied his liability. lie was only agent, and
the name of his principal was well known. lie never hired
the barge..

(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)

CHAUNTRY STAKES,

Plaintiff's witness said, a boy in defendant's office, or de
fendant's son gave orders respecting the barge.
Defendant said he was not authorised.

His Honour—Why not sue the firm at Glasgow ?

Mr. Buchanan—l am informed that it is not usual.
Three days are allowed, and after that time it is a custom,
in the port of London, to sue the agent.
His Honour—l must have very good evidence of such a
custom before I receive it here. Cannot we send a summons
to GlaPgow

Three ran.

Mr. Buchanan—No. Tha Courts only have jurisdiction
in England and Wales. Wo must have a Scotch attorney,
and the practice is very expensive.
His Honour—Yes, it is a monstrously hard matter. If
an Englishman owes a Scotchman a debt he is sued for it
and the amount recovered easily enough ; but if a Scotchman
owes an Englishman a debt, unheard-of difficulties are in
the way. There is a prejudice existing in Scotland, and it
is monstrously hard. I shall adjourn the case, in order that
defendant's son may appear to give evidence upon the
custom.

KELSO .RACES.-('THIS DAY.)

[BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.]
ROXBURGH HANDICAP.

Three ran.

Plaintiff's witness—l have successfully sued several
shipbrokers.

His Honour—l must have good evidence to prove such
custom.

YOUNG V. JUDD-AN ATTORNJY APPEARING FOR AN

ATTORNEY.

Plainiiff is a solicitor, and now sought to recover his bill
of costs.
Mr. Buchanan appeared for plaintiff.
His Honour—How will this be ? It opens a very un-
pleasant question.
Mr Buchanan—l apprehend that Mr. Young is in this
ease an ordinary plaintiff.

His Honour—Perhaps so. You may proceed.
Verdict for plaintiff.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

GUILDHALL.
=TIMES TILE FRAUDULENT BANKRUPT.

This bankrupt was again placed at the bar this morning,
before Mr. Alderman Lawrence, and, after some evidence
was given in several new cases, the prisoner was again re-
manded till Thursday week, at ten o'clock. The Court, as
on former occasions, was crowded.

II ULL.

A meeting of the Hull Volunteer Rifle Corps was
held on Monday at the George Inn, at which it
was announced that Lord Wenlock had recom•
mended her Majesty to confirm the election of Mr.
J. Walter Pease as captain, Mr. A. Bannister as
lieutenant, and Mr. H. Vincent Parker as ensip.
The noble lord had also sent the necessary docu-
ments up to the War•office for the enrolment of the
corps. Between 80 and 90 members have joined,
and a second corps is in process of formation. The
Government ins?ector will arrive in Hull in the
course of a day or two in order to select suitable
ground for rifle practice. The necessary contracts
for outfits have been advertised for and are in pro-
cess of acceptance. In fact, the greatest success
has hitherto attended this patriotic movement.
