GERMAN PAPERS.

NUREMBURG. Nov. 30.—According to Mun:ch
Papers, every thing is arranged for the departure of King
Otho, and M. Von Eichtal, banker to the Count, has
undertaken to provide for the conveyance of the baggage.
The Greek company of workmen sets nut for Trieste on
the sth of December. At the same time, 430 of the men
Aready raised, under the command of Lieutenant-
Col Von Schmata set out for the same post. The men
are to he conveyed to Trieste in waggons. The Greek
Herlans already form a squadron of 100 men, but are
not yet equipped.
VIENNA, Nov. 24.—Last week pretty numerous bodies
of troops marched through this city to Italy and Ger-
many. Among the troops that arrived are some of the
frontier regiment, which it is well known are always
Palled• into the field, because, wherLat -liome, they follow
agricultural occupations, and their absence, therefore, oc-
casions inconvenience by the interruption of their labours.
More heavy battering cannon have been sent from Gratz
to Italy. Excs pt a frequent exchange of couriers, much
activity in the military branches of the Administration,
and a great increase in the coinage of money in all the
mints in the empire, there is nothing to indicate
speedy breaking out of war, which, indeed, many per-
sons will not believe. The prices of the Funds, however,
fluctuate in as irregular a manner as if battles were al-
ready lust and won. It is odd enough that the Stocks
rose when the news of the entrance of the French
army into Belgium arrived. This afforded a new
proof that events in expectation have a snore unfavour-
able effect on the money market, than such as have
already taken place. The fear of the speculators is di-
rected snore to the future than the present.
ZURICH, Nov. 23.—Yesterday the Political Union of
the Canton celebrated at Uster, the second anniversary of
the popular assembly at Uster, in 1830, which over-
turned the Constitution of 1814. A great number of
persons from all parts of the Canton (12,000, or as others
say from 15 to 20,000) collected with various intentions.
A number of persons, supposed to he about 500, front the
eastern parts of the Canton, where discontent has for some
time prevailed,on account of the introduction of machinery
for spinning and weaving, attacked the manufactory of
Messrs. Corrodi and Pfister at Oberuster, and overpowering
all resistance, in which Fierz, Member of the Council, dis-
played great intrepidity, at the hazard of his life, set it on
fire by throwing iu burning faggots and straw ; so that the
principal building was reduced to ashes, and the others
were in danger of the same fate. But now thousands of
respectable citizens, who had arrived at Kirchuster, has-
tened to the spot, drove off the rioters, and took 100
prisoners, fifty of whom were immediately taken to the
Court-house at Kirchuster, and there bound and put into
waggons and sent to Zunich, escorted by the armed force
which was speedily called together. This did not
hinder the celebration of the festival, after the tumult
was ended. The Government immediately called a
considerable force to maintain order, and prevent
any further excesses. There are reports of a late date,
which say, that the district from which the rioters came is
in a complete state of insurrection, and that the inhabitants,
who are the most uncivilized in the canton, intend to march
against the town, and release the prisoners. Three batta-
lions of troops were sent thither on the 24th. These
people subsist by weaving, and had two years ago urged
the Government to forbid the use of all such machinery.
It was in vain represented to them that such a measure
would only transfer this branch of manufactures to the
neighbouring countries, and leave the poorer class entire!)
without means of gaining a livelihood.—Nuremburg Cor.
respondent, Nov. 30.

Sir CAPEL MOLINEUX, Bart., died on
Monday at his house in Merrion-square, Dublin. Ms
extensive estates in that and other counties descend to his
brother, General MotlNaux.

We understand a gentleman is in treaty for
the purchase of the Pantheon in Oxford-street, with the
intention of opening it during the winter season with a
German Opera company. It is intended to place the
management in the hands of Mr. MONCK MASON, late the
lessee of the Opera House. The auto required as pur-
chase money of the house is 15,0001., and a sum of the
same amount, it is calculated, will be required to fit it up
for the reception of:an audience.—Court Journal.
DIABOLICAL ATTEMPT TO MURDER.—
On Friday last, about 9 o'clock in the evening, as the
Rev. WILLIAst HETI', vicar of Elksley, near East Retford,
was going from that village to his residence in Houghton
Park, some person sprung out of a plantation, and when
within about a foot of him discharged a pistol at his head ;
the Rev. Gentleman, in attempting to put the muzzle of
the pistol from him, had his hand shattered by the dis-
charge. He was afterwards plundered of what property
he had upon him, but whether there was one or more
thieves he cannot state. No clue whatever has hitherto
been obtained to detect the wretch or wretches who perpe-
trated it.—Nottingliant Paper.

WAR PRICES.—At Horncastle, a few weeks
ago, Mr. LONGSTAFF, auctioneer, sold 28 lots of oak wood
growing on five acres and a half of land for the enormous
sum of 5831., being an average of 3s. 6d. per foot cube.
Some idea may be formed of the deplorable
situation in which the Tories are placed, in order to get
signatures to their Dutch war petition, adopted at the hole
and corner concern in the Black Bull Inn, by the fact
that one of their number actually went into a school-room
at the west end of the town on Friday, and obtained the
signatures of the boys. The teacher was afraid to turn
the intruder out; but he hinted that the boys were surely
too young to sign petitions. The answer was, "Oh!it is
names we want." Only one of the children was found
to refuse, till he had consulted his father. How many
children's signatures were attached we cannot tell, as the
teacher declines to say.— Glasgow Chronicle.
EXTRAORDINARY CONFLAGRATION OF
OATS AND HAY SEIZED FOR TITHES.—We are indebted
to our Baltinglass correspondent for the following particu-
lars of a transaction which took place in that neighbour-
hood on Saturday. Much as we rely on our correspondent,
we can scarcely credit his statement :—" One of the tithe
owners here has employed a large number of the army and
police in seizing the hay and corn of those who refuse to
pay him tithes. MATTHEW HEALY, of Rathdangan, was
the first man's haggard entered on Siturday morning.
HEALY would not purchase, so that two stacks and one
cock of hay were put up and sold for 31. to the tithe owner;
the buyer at once got five or six of his men, with some of
the peelers, and took fifty barrels of oats, and five tons of
hay asunder, and put a coal in them, and in less than an
hour the hay and corn were burned to ashes. The Rev.
Mr. LALOR, the excellent parish priest of Rackets-town,
bought two poor men's haggards. There were eighty bar.
els of oats and eight tons of hay burned on Saturday."—

miles from

some parts of which are much infested with those " ear-
ment " called rats, amongst about half a dozen " notices,"
which Mr. Amen published, during divine service, to the
congregation, on Sunday morning last, one of the sapient
conelavi,ts which compose the weekly vestry, ordered him
to give the following :—" The neighbours are desired to
meet on Friday night, at the tolling of the bell, on
account of the poor; likewise at the same time to
take into consideration the best means of catch-
ing the ROTS !!" Such cannot but be an outrage
to religion and decorum ; and it is a great pity that the
notices of " Statutes for hiring servants," the paying of
taxes," " days of appeal," and any thing of a secular
nature should be allowed in the house of God, especially
during a time of prayer. Also lately, in an adjacent vil
lage, in the parish church, whose walls are nearly
covered with ivy, during divine service, and as the mi-
[lister was ascending the pulpit, the clerk announced— •
Naybors ! the taxes 'II all be pride this wick ! ! !"
What a fortunate thing it would have be:n if they had.—

Scheldt ; and if the General had already erected any, that
this must be considered as an act of hosti:ity, and he re-
quired that these works should be demolished. General
Sehastiani replied, that he had positive orders not to corn-
wit any hostilities unless he were attacked, but that he
must arm the banks of the Scheldt, from the Pipe de
rabac to Frederick Hi nry, to be able to return the fire if
ie should be attacked ; that it was evident he did not
mean to begin hostilities, since he might have done so•the
,lay before.
Fort St. Marie was occupied by the French on the night
,f the Ist, and the next day they began to make gabions,
to dig trenches, &c.

THE HAGUE, DEc. 6.—The Prince of Orange arrited
here last night from the army ; a great crowd reetived the
Prince with acclamations on his arrival at his palace: A
.eell.dressed man was heard to call out to his Rqyal
ness, " Persevere, Prince, we too will persevere;" an 'ex-
Jression which may be considered as interpreting the feel-
ings of the whole nation.

Today the Prince's birthday has been kept with the
usual marks of respect.
We hear that in a General Committee of the Second
Chamber of the States-General to-day, his Excellency the
Nlini,ter for Foreign Affairs will communicate the corres•
oondence that has lately taken place between our Ambas-
sador in London and the English Ministry, and like Wise
'tie latest papers that have been exchanged respecting
Messrs. Thorn and Pescatore.
The project of law relative to the Landsturm has been
greatly modified by the Government. It is —affirmed that
after the discussions of the Budget and the project of law
relative to the Land Tax and the Landsturm, the Cham-
bers will be adjourned, and the remaining affairs left for
he commencement of next year.
The accounts of 'the receipts and expenditure for 1831
laid before the States• General, show that the receipts
amounted to 107,293,287 florins, and the expenditure to
103,626,145 florins, leaving a surplus of 3,667,141
florins. The patriotic donations amount to 225,230
florins.

THE HAGUE, DEC. 7.—The Prince of Orange left us
yesterday evening to return to his head-quarters.
Private accounts from Antwerp to half-past eleven in
the morning of the sth say, that the fire of the besiegers
from five batteries had con•inued till six that morning,
and bad then slackened or almost wholly ceased. It had
not done any damage to the citadel, most of the balls hav-
ing passed over it, and fallen into the Scheldt, and da-
inaged the tackling of some gun-boats. The guns of the
citadel, which were well directed, had already done much
injury to the enemy, and dismounted a battery in fort
Montebello.

Prince Frederick and the British and French Ministers
are still at the Hague.
