also statements to the effect that the Car-

lists being without a leader in Catalonia sent a
deputation to the Usurper, praying him to appoint
some efficient person to lead them. He first proposed
going himself in person ; but upon its being repre-
sented to him that thqe would be danger in leaving the
Basques, he announced himself ready to depute his ne-

phew Don SEBASTIAN to that office. From some cause,
not stated, this arrangement did not take place, so
that as yet the rebels in Catalonia are without a chief.
The Carlists in many parts of the north are greatly
distressed ; and there is no doubt but that a rigid
blockade of the coast will reduce them to extreme
destitution.

M. PORTALIS concluded the reading of his Re-
port, relative to the affair of FIESCIII and his accom-
plices, on Wednesday. Five individuals are implicated
as guilty of the double crime of treason and murder, and
these five are now in custody. Their names are
FIESCHI, PEPIN, MOREY, BOIREAU, and BE-
CHET. It is doubtful whether they will be tried be-
fore or after the termination of the trial of the prison-

ers of April. The question might be of some conse,
quence, had Government succeeded in tracing the
regicidal conspiracy to the leaders of the Republican
party ; but in this the Cabinet has signally failed.
The Quotidienne and the Journal du Commerce
have undertaken the defence of the speech of the
CZAR of Muscovy at Warsaw. The former states
that the CZAR will teach the liberals of France,
England, and Spain, a " new lesson," such as other
Monarchs have not the courage to teach them. We
are heartily glad of it. In this age of itinerant school-
masters, it is gratifying to see the birch in such a hand
as that of NICHOLAS. We trust he will not lose an
hour, before applying it to the incorrigibles denounced
as the objects of autocratical flogging by the Quoti-
dienne. We shall be prepared to receive his castiga-
tions in the spirit in which they are administered, pro-
vided we fail in asserting our right to be considered as
the teachers, and not the:taught. The only argument
deserving of notice in these Journals-an argu-
ment the full force of which must be felt by
the Debats and the Government-may be resolved into
the questions, "With what reason can France denounce
language at Warsaw which is held- by a citizen Sove-
reign on the banks of the Seine ? How can those
who barricadoed Paris exclaim against the fortifica-
tion raised for the protection of a Russian Garrison ?"
We admit the force of such questions as applied to
France, and we leave the Debats to answer them in
any way it thinks proper. At the same time we
ought to observe, that its article of Thursday against
the policy of Ruszia, is as vigorous and as hostile as
those which preceded it on the same subject.
The more we see of the probability of a speedy rup
ture with Russia, the more desirous do we feel that an
amicable settlement should take place of the differences
between France and the United States. A war with
Russia and America, and at the same time, would dis-
tress France and greatly embarrass England. With
America we are_ at peace, and desire to be so ;
but in the event of hostilities taking place between
France and'the States, we could hardly remain neutral,
provided that, at the same time, we were the allies of
France in a war against Russia.. Now a war with
Russia may be reckoned a moral certainty, and there-
fore we deem it of the first importance that such ex-
planations would take place between the Governments
of France and America, as would restore the friendly
intercourse between them. To effect this, France
ought to make the first advances. She can have no
fears with respect to a compromise of her dignity.
PARIS, Nov. 18.-A letter from Mahon of the 24th of
October says that the American Commodore Patterson
had arrived at that port on board the Constitution frigate,
to relieve Commodore Elliott. Besides the Constitution,
the American squadron on that station consists of the De-
laware of the line, the Potomac frigate, the Adams cor-
vette, and the schooner Shark. It is said that part of this
force is destined for the Levant, and that part will return to
the United States. At Madrid the question is discussed,
how the Cortes will proceed with respect to the old Minis-
ters of the elective Chamber ; some would have them ex-
pelled, as Unworthy of a seat, as was done in the preceding
session session by the Chamber of Proceres ivith respect. to M.
Burgos, on the motion of General Alava. But the real
Constitutionalists disapprove of these illegal and violent
proceedings, and would have an impeachment according to
the laws brought against the Ministers who violated the
law, decreed the state of siege, and disregarded the inviola-
bility of the representatives of the nation.
The Eco reports that the Duke de 1' Infantado, who had
refused to sit in the Chamber of Froceres, has just joined
the cause of the Queen. lie has refused to authorise the
exchange of his son, who was in the service of Don Carlos,
and has been taken prisoner, for a Christino Officer taken
by the faction, declaring that his son ought to bear the
consequences of his criminal conduct. This great noble-
man has besides subscribed for the just and legitimate cause
of Isabella. This apostacy is a good sign, and proves that
in the opinion of that absolutist Duke, the cause of Don
Carlos has no longer any chance in Spain.
A decree of sth November annuls the dissolution which
was previously pronounced of a company of the National
Guards of Madrid, which had 'refused to receive officers
named by the Government. This decree is founded on the
necessity of completing the union between all Spaniards,
at the moment when the Cortes are going to meet.
The Eco copies an article from the Morning. Herald,
which speaks of a professed cession of the Balearic Islands
to France in return for its intervention against Don Carlos.
The Madrid paper replies that the Spanish Liberals will
not have the French intervention on any terms, and that
they would never consent to the dismemberment of their
territory.-Messager, Nov. 19.

maintained their price to-day at Tortoni's ; they were cur-

has damped a little the ardour of the speculators, but the
decline is not serious.

Letters from Madrid, of the 10th inst., speak of
the anxiety of the people for the meeting of the
Cortes. M. Is TuREz, Member for Cadiz, and M.
GONZALEZ, for Estremadura, are the candidates for
the Presidency of the Chamber of Procuradores. The
latter was one of the Secretaries during the last Session,
and though he belongs to the moderate party, was
always in the opposition against TORENO'S Adminis-
tration. M. FERRER, Member of Valencia, is spoken
of as another candidate, but without any chance of
success, as GONZALEZ has the support of AR-
GUELLES and GARCIA CARRASCO, parties amount-
ing to more than the half of the Chambers.

We have received Dutch and German papers of the
latest dates. The Dutch Journals contain no intelli-
gence of importance ;' in the German papers we find
the following paragraph with respect to Hungary :
" The following is the substance of the Royal Resolu-
tions addressed to the Diet of Hungary, which, as has been
already stated, were made known in the sitting of the 21st
October, in which the Archduke Palatine presided. The
first, dated Vienna, October 5, relates to the Representa-
tion of the Diet of the 30th of March, 1833, respecting
the use of the Hungarian language. His Majesty has been
pleased to reply to this, that conformably to the principles
contained in the Royal gracious Resolutions of the 22d

June, 1792, and in the spirit of Article 7 of 1792, sec. 1
and 2, and of Article 4 of 1805, every thing shall be
done for the encouragement and propagation of the
Hungarian language. His Majesty further consents that
the legal articles, which have hitherto been drawn up
in the Latin language, shall have the text in Hungarian
annexed to them ; but in cases where doubts may arise,
the Latin text alone shall decide.
The seco►►d resolution of 28th October relates to the
representation of 21st September, respecting some points
of what is called the Urbarial Law. According to this
resolution, the privilege of being allowed to hire ware-
houses shall not be extended to strangers ; but such hiring
may be forbidden by the ground landlord, on sufficient rea-
sons. The choice of Judges shall be made as formerly, by
all the inhabitants.
The other changes proposed are approved. To the
observations of the Estates respecting the closing of the
session, it is announced that his Majesty uill in this respect
constantly observe the fundamental laws, especially Art. 13,
of 1790 and 1827, and according to them will summon
the next diet ; but is pleased to grant a term of two months
for the purpose of finishing the matters now under consi-
deration. The Second Chamber has since held meetings,
in which a new message has been discussed, in reply to the
Royal resolution relative to the Hungarian language, which
the Opposition is disposed to look upon as not satisfactory.

New York papers to the 26th ult. have been re-
ceived. We regret to state that their contents give
more of the indices of a barbarous than a civilised po-

pulation.

We are happy that the Election for Northampton-
shire is quite safe. Lords STRATHAVEN, SOUTH-
AMPTON, and others, have come round to the Liberal

cause.

THE GREAT KNOWN

"I am sorry you had any trouble in finding me. All the world,
I thought, knew that I was in Bath.—(Mr. Roebuck's Letter to
Dr. Black in The Sun of this day.)

What, can it be true, Dr. Black,
That you knew not my place of abode;
But trudged from your Office and back,
Twice or thrice, to learn where I was stow'd ?
That you questioned, cross-questioned, yet caught
Not a glimpse—not a clue to my path ?
Impossible, sure ! for I thought
All the world knew that I was in Bath

Had you wished to find out the address
Of Wellington, Lyndhurst, and Peel,
Or send down a warlike express
To the Premier, or Lord Privy Seal,—
You might perhaps, vainly have sought
Such inglorious scum ; but i'faith,
To miss me, is too much, for I thought
All the world knew that I was in Bath !

Not a step can I take, but 'tis known
Through Europe at once, far and wide,
E'en my name (such a name 1) shakes the Throne,
Church and State, and God knows what beside !
I'm the Lion of lions,; in short,
No man such celebrity bath—
Then how could you miss me? I thought
All the world knew that I was in Bath !

Lord Stanley was re-elected Lord R ecter of the
University of Glasgow on Monday last.
The Duke and Duchess of St. Alban's, Lord Fre-
deick Beauclerk, Miss Burdett, and suite, will arrive in
town on Monday next from Scotland.
DINNER AT LEEDS TO SIR J. BECKETT.—
This splendid festival, given by the Conservatives of the
borough of Leeds to their Representative, Sir John Bec-
kett, took place on Thursday night, in the usic Hall, and
was attended by about 260 persons. The chair was occu-
pied by William Beckett, Esq., supported by his brother,
the Right Hon. Baronet, the Earl of Mexborough, the
Hon. John Stuart Wortley, the Hon. W. S. Lascelles, J.
M. Gaskell, Esq., M.P., Andrew Lawson, Esq., M.P.,
Cole Tempest, G. L. Fox, Esq., John Gott, Esq., &c. We
regret that we cannot find room for a more particular ac.
count of it. The company did not break up until nearly

two o'clock in the morning.
DUBLIN ELECTION COMMISSION.—Having found
fault, when we felt we bad reason, with the mode in which
the proceedings before this Commission was conducted, it
is but justice that we should bear our testimony to the fair
and candid mode in which the inquiry has been carried on
since the appointment of a chairman, who, whatever may be
his private political views, seems determined not to be
swayed by them in the administration of the law between
opposing parties. In these observations we mean none,
not the slightest reflection upon Mr. Haire.—Dublin Re-

gister.
THE BAR.—The following gentlemen were yes-
terday (Friday, the 20th) called to the Bar by the Honour-
able Society of the Inner Temple :—Mr. William Bagley,
Mr. Edward Law Lushington, Mr. William Steire, Mr. J.
S. Digwerd, Mr. W. Meyrick, Mr. John W. Harden
Mr. H. J. Hase, Mr. W. Oxley, Mr. H. E. Fawcett
Mr. C. R. Moore, Mr. F. J. Ellis, Mr. S. Wood, Mr. F.
J. Phillips, Mr. J. D. Harding, Mr. E. Hedge, and Mr. E

Whately.
The Duchess of St. Alban's, whose journey throng
Scotland has been one continued series of benefactions, was
pleased, on the 1 Rh instant, to award to our city, which is
the birth place of Mr. Coutts, the following sums in behalf
of so many of its public institutions :
To the Royal Infirmary £5O
To the Deaf and Dumb Institution 5O
To the Blind Asylum
To the Royal Dispensary
To the New Town Dispensary 25
Besides which we know of twq separate sums of 301. each,
which her Grace has intrusted to two different individuals
for private distribution.—Edinburgh Courant.
HERTFORD VOTES.--A letter from T. King,
Esq., the purchaser of the estates about which such a cla-
mour has been raised by the Tories, has addressed a letter
to the Cambridge Independent, refuting completely the
mis-statements which have lately gone abroad on the subject.
The number of electors registered for the East
Riding, in the present year, is 8,965. The number regis-
tered in 1834 was 5,140. There has, consequently, been an
an increase in the number of registered voters to the extraor-
dinary amount of 3,825.—Hu1l Packet.
CommissioN OF LUNACY.—The commissioners
and jury who have recently been sitting in Dublin under a
Commission Dc Lunatic° Inquircndo, respecting Mr. David
O'Neil Power, the Court of Appeals, when, after some
discussion between the opposing counsel, have found that
David O'Neil is a.person of unsound mind, and incapable
of managing_ his own affairs, Szc.
"THE PAVING COMMISSIONERS (IRELAND.)—
A notification was received on Tuesday, at the Paving
Board, from Government, conveying an intimation that, on
Tuesday, or yesterday, an appointment regularly signed
and sealed by his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant, com-
plying in every respect with the provisions of the 49th Geo.
111., and legalising the appointment of each of the three
commissioners by name, will be transmitted to the Paving
House from Dublin Castle.—Dublin Register.
During the war (1796), a sailor went to Mr.
MacLaren, a watchmaker, and presenting a small French
watch to him,
:demanded to know how much the repair
of it would come to ? Mr. MacLaren, after examining it,
said—" It will be more expense repairing • than its original
cost."—" I don't mind that," said the tar : " I will even give
you double the original cost ; for I have a veneration for
the watch."—" What might you have given for it?" said
the watchmaker.—" Why," replied the tar, " I gave a fel-
low a blow on the head for it ; and if you repair it, I will
give you two."
LAS CASES' MEMOIRS OF NAPOLEON.—A more
decided proof of the memorable and lasting interest of this
most authentic account of the late French Emperor could
scarcely be given than is shown by the fact, that in the
short space o ten days, No. I. of the octavo edition has been
all sold. Those persons, however, who were not sufficiently
early in their orders for the first edition, will be gratified
by the information that a second and very beautiful Pocket
Edition, in weekly shilling numbers, uniform with ByrOn and
Scott, and elegantly embellished, has been commenced, the
First Number of which is published this day, embellished
with a portrait of Napoleon, and a Number will be regu-
larly issued every Saturday till completed in about twenty
Numbers. This beautiful edition has been stereotyped, so
that however greal the demand, no disappointment can
arise in the supply of any ,of the Numbers. The copyright
of this Work is the exclusive property of Mr. Colburn,
for whom it is published by R. Bentley, and by Messrs.
Bell and Bradfute, Edinburgh ; and Mr. John Cumming,
Dublin.
TUE PRINCE OF THE PEACE.—The autobiogra-
phy of this very celebrated personage is about to be laid be-
fore the world. Don Manuel Godoy, it is well known, was,
during the most morfientuous period of the recent history
of Spain, ,the principal Minister at the Court of Madrid.
Much of mystery hangs about his character, and the Court
intrigues at the period of his Government, to dissipate
which his Highness has at length resolved, in his retirement
at Paris, to compose his Memoirs. During the life of Fer-
dinand VII., he was not at liberty to speak out. This
restraint is, however, now removed, and the European pub-
lic may expect curious disclosures. Mr. Bentley, the pub-
lisher of the work in England, has given a large sum to the
Prince for the copyright, and the translation is made under
the direction of his Highness.
SUDDEN DEATII OF LIEUTENANT-COLONEL
Ton.—This Gallant Officer, who had distinguished himself
by a long and brilliant career in the service of the East India
Company, called at his bankers, Sir William Curtis and
Co., in Lombard-street, on Tuesday last, where he was
suddenly seized with an apoplectic fit ; but by the assist-
ance of the clerks in the office he endeavoured to reach his
carriage, which was at the door. In this attempt he failed,
and was immediately put to bed in the banking-house,
where he expired after some hours, having been insensible
from the commencement of the attack. _ Mrs. Tod, who
was in the vehicle when her husband was taken ill, re-
mained with him during his last moments. Lieut.-Col.
James Tod was the author of " Annals of Rajahstan,"
published a short time ago ; a work distinguished for the
liberal and enlightened view it takes of the history of that
interesting, though hitherto little known, portion of our
Indian empire. Colonel Tod resided several years in that
district in the capacity of Political Agent, under the Go-
vernment of the Marquis of Hastings. His unceasing
efforts to promote the happiness and prosperity of the
people under his charge were universally felt and acknow-
ledged by the natives ; who, according to the testimony of
the late Bishop Heber, always spoke of him in the warmest
terms of filial respect and gratitude. A more estimable
character as a husband, a father, and as a friend could not
exist, and he died deeply lamented by a widow and three
children, and a numerous circle of friends. The week be-
fore his decease lie completed another work on Hindostan,
on which occasion lie expressed his gratitude that his life
had been spared through a long and severe illness to finish
his arduous undertaking ; and that he should, therefore, die
happy.
HYDROPHOBIA.—.A. fatal case of hydrophobia has
occurred at Silkmore House, near Stafford, the residence of
Thomas Hartshorne, Esq. The subject of the attack was
'Very Forrister, a housemaid in the establishment, about
25 years Qf age.
