BELGIAN AND GERMAN PAPERS.

CONSTANTINOPLE, OCT. 22.—Official news' has at length
been again received from the head quarters of Redscbid
Puha, *ltieh come down to October 13th. In conformity
with the instructions he had received, he had transferred
tis- head miariers from Karpoud to Diarbekir, and was or-
ganizincr the male population of the cities of Karpout, Mer-
din and Diarbekir on the European system. The irregular_
troops were employed in destroying or subduing the pre-
datory hordes that had retreated into the defiles of the
mountains. The army of Redschid Pacha is estimated at
80,000 men, and it is reported that the regular troops
which can now be spared from Albania have received
orders to go to Asia.
SMYRNA, OCT. 19.—Our accounts from Alexandria to-
!lay are to the 24th of September. The Egyptian fleet
which had so long cruised on the coast of Syria, and was
ordered to bring away the troops from Syria which were
intended for Arabia, had returned to Alexandria on the
.21st of September, without a soldier on board, to the great
;nation of Mehemet Ali. Soliman Bey was on board the
fleet, and brought word that on account of the fermenta-
ion in Syria and Lebanon, Ibrahim Paella was unable to
Pend any troops.
BRUSSELS, Nov. 18.—We learn that their Majesties
will return to Brussels in the course of the week. The
Queen, whose'health had suffered from a severe cold, was
getting better. A plan has been prepared at the 'War
Office for the organization of the artillery, which wants only
the sanction of the King. There will be three Regiments
of 12 Companies, viz.,-1 of heavy artillery, lof field
artillery, and 1 of horse 'artillery.

A letter from Ostend of the 15th says that the English
sloop Countess of _Elgin had stranded on the coast. The
cargo, consisting of cottons, indigo, and saltpetre, was much
damaged, and partly lost. There is no hope of saving the
ship. The crew had all arrived in the port.
The English lady residing at Ghent, who fired several
pistol shot at a man-servant, has just been Condemned to
one month's imprisonment, and a fine of 200 francs. The
servant-maid who was the cause of the dispute was con-
demned at the same time to 15 days' imprisonment.
- The Chamber of Representatives has commenced the
discussion of a project of law relative to what are called
the Los-rentes.

GHENT, Nov. 19.—The Messager de Gand contains
an article in which it adduces various reasons for doubting
the authenticity of the speech ascribed by the French Jour-
nals to the Emperor Nicholas at Warsaw. The conclusion
of this article is as "follows

" But supposing that it was delivered as (riven to us, we
do not know why it should irritate, as it has done, the revo-
lutionary press. . •

" The grand anathema, the most terrible reprobation,
fall on that passage of the speech which says, I have had
the citadel erected, and I declare to you, that at the slightest
insurrection, I will have the city cannonaded. I will destroy
Warsaw, and certainly I shall not bo the person to re-
build it.'

" This is certainly severe language ; there is no ora-
torical precaution, no circumlocution. It is the transi
mod() Tanaint of the Scythian ; it is the language of
nature and truth ; but has not King Louis Phillippe
already done, what the Emperor Nicholas announces ?
Do not the cannon of Lyons,. the April days of Paris,
the massacres of the Rue Transnonain. prove that
if Louis Phillippe does not threaten the Parisians with
cannonading their city, that he, nevertheless, does not hesi-
tate to do so when he is resisted ? The detached forts
would he indisputable proofs of his intentions in this re-
spect, if facts that have already occurred did not dispel all
doubts on the subject. Thus, what Nicholas promises
Louis Phillippe performs. Is there, then, so much reason
to exclaim, at a threat which the Sovereign of the country
has long since realised ?-11/essager de Gand, Nov. 19.

THE MARQUIS OF EXETER.—This. being the
period for the election of guardians of the poor in the vil-
lages surrounding Stamford, the people—Pickworth, Wit-
tering, and Ryhall-have received missions declaring the
Marqui's pleasure as to the choice they should make.
Pickworth and Ryhall submitted, but not without mur-
murs.. -Wittering holds out, and there will be a contest
between the independent candidate and the Marquis's no-
minee. These are very trifling and insignificant matters,
no doubt ; but they are straws showing which way the wind
will bloW when the municipal body are to be chosen for
Stamford. Domitian, when be bad no pretext for slaugh-
tering men, amused himself with killing flies.—Lincoln Gas.
On Wednesday, his Excellency the Ambassador
from, the Sublime Porte, accompanied by a suite of about
twenty persons,' amongst whom was the celebrated Turkish
General-in-Chief, Namik Pacha, who opposed Diehitsch
and the Russians during the severe struggle in the Balkan
on their march on Constantinople, visited the Adelaide
Gallery. His Excellency and the company paid particu-
lar attention to Perkins's steam-gun, and minutely watched
the effects of the stream of bullets directed against the
target, marking with great interest the"glow of latent heat
developed as they were flattened on the cast-iron disc. It
;40 not. escape his Excellency's observation that the rough
surface of the target. retained a coating of lead, which, in
fact, is always interposed between it and the bullets, so that
the light observable, is due to the action of lead on lead,
and- not lead on iron. He expressed a great desire to
ascertain the effects which balls of ,other and more com-
bustible metals would produce under similar circumstances.
We understand that preparations had been previously made
to try these very experiments, the results of which will
shortly be exhibited. His Excellency devoted a consider-
able time to the wonders of the microscope, and insisted on
a succinct interpretation of every sentence, word by word,
as it was uttered by Mr. Maugham.

A KING 1-The art on which the King prided
himself, more particularly than any other, was—we must
out with it—the art of tailoring. Yes, the late King of
England boasted that, so far as cutting-out went, he was
the most accomplished snip in his dominions. Stultz was
not worthy to hold the chalk to him. Fired with this noble
ambition, he was perpetually changing the collar, or the
cuff, or the body, or the buttons, of his domestics and at-
tendants, and his zeal for reform in these important mat-
ters, were a source.of such expense in the army, to which
also his cares were extended, that not a few younger bro-
thers were forced to throw up their commissions, from the
inability to comply with the ever-varying improvements of
the ingenious Monarch. For some time previous to the
introduction of the Emancipation Bill of 1829, his Ma-
jesty had been deep in a scheme for altering the cuffs of the
general officers, which the Duke, who is a bit of a mar-
tinet in his way, would by no means hear of. There was,
it is said, an actual miff between the Monarch and the
Minister on this important point ; and had not circum-
stances driven his Grace to a compromise, it is not impro-
bable that the Ministry might have been fairly " cuffed"
out—fortunately the Clare election interposed to prevent
such a catastrophe. The election, and the confessed insta-
bility of the army, put an end to the hesitation of his
Grace. The Bill was drawn by Sir James Scarlett—Sir
Charles Wetherell, though Attorney-General, refused to
do it—and the Duke waited on the King to ask his gra-
cious assont to its introduction. He found the Monarch
in his blandest mood—Bacchus sparkling on his right,
in the guise of a flask of his favourite sherry ; and Venus
on his left, in the guise of the Marchioness, " Well, Arthur,
what now ?" was the kindly welcome. The Duke exclaimed
the purport of his visit, and enforced it as he could.--Ditm-
flies Journal.

SNOW.—We have now keen frosty weather, but
highly seasonable, and even agreeable. Wheat sowing is
nearly over, and farming operations generally well advanced.
The, potatoe crop is raised and secured. In the higher
districts, we understand, there was a heavy fall of snow on
Thursday night. In Lochcarron, Lochalsh, and Strath-
counn the snow lay deep upon the ground on Friday morn-
ing.---Inverness Courier.

ROBBERIES AT HOTELS.—The hotel proprietors
of the metropolis, in a preliminary meeting., convened on
Monday, at the Piazza Coffee-rooms, Covent-garden, came
to the determination of forming themselves into a Society
to protect more efficiently their property from the increasing
depredators on hotels. The robberies on hotel-keepers
which have recently occurred have fully called for the above
resolution. The 30th inst. is named for a further discussion
on the subject.
FATAL AND DREADFUL ACCIDENT BY FIRE.
Between twelve and one o'clock yesterday morning, as some
of the family of the Rev. Mr. Morell, the tutor of
Coward's College, Torrington-place, Torrington-square,
were retiring to bed, a strong smell of fire was perceived,
and smoke was observed to be issuing from underneath the
door of the bed-room occupied by Mrs. Janet Bryden, the
housekeeper. On forcing it open, Mrs. Bryden was found
lying on the floor of the room, with her clothes completely
burnt from her person, and her flesh in many places burnt
to-a-state Of cinder. Not a feature was distinguishable.
Medical was procured as quickly as possible, when it
Wak: diseimered that the unfortunate woman was quite dead.
The flooring add wainscoting of the room were much charred,
