The Racer, 16, Commander James Hope, .was at Halifax
on the 10th of November.. She has been employed during
the summer in protecting the Newfoundland fishery, on
which- service it was necessary for her to despatch her boati
different ways ; the pinnace was Sent in one direction, and
tl e cutter in another ; and while thus short-handed, the
Racer unfortunately ran on some,rocks in Esquimatr:-bay
with such violence (one letter says that she was going at the
rate of 15 knots), and that she was 'immediately thrown on
her beam-ends, and remained in that statt) for five days, not-
withstanding every thing was taken .out of her—guns, shot.
anchors, cables, water, and provisions—and landed on the
beach ; and so hopeless was the expectation of getting- the ves-
sel off, that preparations were commenced on shore for pro-
tecting them during the winter. One large tent was
erected and secured, when, to the surprise of the officers, a
spring tide came in on the sixth day, which floated the
vessel, and, with the assistance of some Indians, she was
hove off to her anchors, which had previously been laid out,
and in ten days she was ready for sea again, with her guns,
provisions, and stores on board. Having orders to commu-
nicate .with the Dutch settlements.. at the entrance of
Davis's Straits, she stood to the northward, but could not
reach them - for the ice, being, on one day, beset with 35
bergs.; she then endeavoured to reach the Moravian settle-
ments on the coast for Labrador, but the ice here also pre-
vented.her.making the land, and consequently she returned
to St: John's, Newfoundland, to pick up her boats, and
thence to Halifax. She was to proceed in a few days for
the West Indies.

Extract of a letter from His Majesty's ship Hyacinth,
(Laid Sydney, June. 23, 1835 We sailed hence with
the Governor on board, for Twofold Bay, where we arrived
on the 17th of April, with an intention of forming a settle-
ment there. On this spot there are already fire Englishmen,
doing very well ; they have eight hundred head of oxen and
sheep, and pigs out of number ; they 'presented the officers
with 5 cwt. of potatoes and. six sheep, and the ship's com-
pany with a fine fat bullock. We sailed thence on the
23d for New 'Zealand, and arrived there on the 3d of
March, and proceeded on the 14th for Otaheite, which,
after a tedious passage, we reached on the 20th of April.
The Queen came on board on the 24th, and dined with
the Captain ; she was saluted with 11 guns. After dinner
the Captain made her a present of various articles of wear-
inn apparel, with which she was very much delighted, and
of which she stood in much need. She is a finely propor-
tioned woman, and speaks English in a slight dagree.
The missionaries exercise an unbounded influence over
her, and so strictly have they- adopted the temperance
society here, that they will not allow any kind of
liquor to be landed on the island. The several
Europeans settled here are governed by the same laws as
the natives, and if seen drinking liquor, no matter whether
drunk or sober, they are brought before the missionary,
who fines them 40 dollars, which are equally divided be-
tween the -Queen and the missionary : if they are not able
to pay the fine, they are compelled to work on the road for
three or four months. The Queen made a present to the
ship's company of three large pigs, and more fruit than they
could consume. The manner of living among these people is
not much unlike that of the English. We sailed from Ota-
heite on the 14th of May, for TongatabOo, where we arrived
on the 25th. The natives there are not so civilized as the
Otaheitans, some scarcely wearing any covering. The King
came on board and dined with the Captain. There are two
missionaries here, but they are Americans. The natives
are tall and slender ; they have plenty of poultry, pigs, and
yams, but are cannibals ; they have some war canons up-
wards-of 100 feet long, which will carry 300 people. We
had intelligence .here of a French brig having been taken
by the Fegees, but our provisions being nearly exhausted,
:ve were compelled to make the best of our way to
Sydney, where we arrived.on the 18th of June, having left
Tongataboo on the 28th of May. We expect to sail for
India the latter end of July. Several privates of the 4th
Regiment have absconded, with some convicts, into the
bush—a circumstance which has occasioned strong excite-
ment here. The light company of the 17th Regiment has
been out in pursuit of them for the last fortnight, but as yet
haVe not come up with them."

His Majesty's ship Raleigh left Madras 11. )ads on the
10th of June for Balembaing and Macao, also the Bonin
Islands, in the China Sea. At the latter islands some
small number of Europeans have settled by their own ac-
cord, and have hoisted British colours. The Raleigh is
sent to ascertain who and what they are, and what posses-
sions, whether pirates or not, and also to survey the island,
which is represented to be a second Otaheite._

• DANCING IN BAVARIA.—The Bavarian tio-
vernment has commenced a reformation of the morals of
its subjects, by forbidding balls in the country on Satur-
days. Great care also is to be taken not to allow too many
feasts and merry-makings on holydays. Very sharp regula-
tions have been issued for public balls, and private parties
of above 100 persons are exposed to the same restrictions.
The cause assigned for the increased vigilance is the increase
of children born out of marriage,
Smithfield Market has, within the last few weeks,
been considerably enlarged by pulling down a number of
buildings behind the pig market, and situated between
Smithfield-bars and Long-lane, which were principally used
as slaughter houses. The whole of the materials of these
buildings have been romoved, the ground levelled, and pens
fixed to place--the sheep in. This enlargement will afford
accommodation for about 5,000 sheep, be attended with
great inconvenience to the salesmen and butchers, but con-
siderably decrease the nuisance and annoyance which the
market is to the neighbourhood.
LONDON AND THE LONDONERS; OR A SECOND
JUDGMENT OF BABYLON THE GREAT.—" These volumes
treat of all subjects connected with London, from the ' fo-
rest of masts' in the river, to the eloquence of the Corpo-
ration—from the Chapel of St. Stephen's, to the steam-
press in Printing House Square—men, women, books and
newspapers—everything in and about London that is worthy
of notice in an intellectual point of view. Not'hi►,F escapes
the eye and the last► of the critic : he insinuates himself
into coteries and collects their foibles—he examines men of
every grade and class with an inquisitorial precision. All
this is done with an air of philomphieal truth, a certain
gravity and sedateness, that impart a high tone of moral,
excellence to the production. He has studied the clihrac-
ter 'of London and Londoners with acuteness."—.Mas.

It was on Tuesday, the 28th of July, the second day of
the fifth anniversary of the revolution of 1880, that the
crime, which forms the subject of this investigation was
committed.

Accompanied by several of the Ministers, and by a nu-
merous staff, the King had completed the' review of the
second line of infantry, and had reached the Boulevard do
Temple, the Duke of Orleans, the Duke de Namours, and
the Prince de Joinville, being near Ibis Majesty's person.
While in front of the eighth,legion of the National Guard,
just.opposite the fewth_tree-in. advance of the entrance
the Jardin Turc,..and about a horse's- length beyond the
front of his escort, at the bead .of which was' the Marshal
Dake de •TreCiso, a loud explosion .was heard, which
seemed to proceed from'an irregular platoon of Musketry,
and to be divided into three successive detonations. A
wide space was instantly formed round the person of the
King in the middle of the Boulevard. The pavement was
inundated with blood, and crowded with the bodies or
rnnt and horses dead and wounded. The Duke de Tre-
viso, six Generals, two Colonels, and nine other ollicers or
privates in the National GuardS, anotlicer of the staff, and
simple spectators, men, women, and children, to the -number
of 21, were struck more or less severely. Eleven fell dead
on the spot, and among the number a young girl of 16
years of age, while seven other's survived, only a few hours,
and some a few days.

A locksmith, , hiS wife and his sister-in-law, were thrown
down and wounded on the Boulevard at the tem, moment
that the King was passing.in front of them. A hail reached
happily, only the surface of the King's forehead, where,
however, it left traces which lasted for several days., The
King's horse was struck on the upper part of the chest,
and those of the Duke de Nemours and the Prince. do
Joh:vine were also wounded, the one in the hough, and
the other in the flank.

In front 8f the Jardin Tore, however, on the third story
of a house, No. 50, on the Boulevard, the outer blind of
a window was. observed to rise, and to throw out a cloud
of thick smoke. In one minute the house was invested.
The agents of police, the National Guards, and the officers
in the- King's suite -hurried into the house to seize the
murderers, if possible,flagrante delicto. -
A thick cloud of smoke, exhaling 'a strong smell of
powder, prevented for a while- the objects within from being
distinctly seen. In spite of the beat of the season and of
the hour of the day, a strong fire Was burning in the
chimney, while burning straw and smoking firebrand were
scattered about the floor, together with a pair 'of scissors, a
gouge, a wimble, a gimlet, and a piece of iron. The floor,
covered withtbroken glass and fragments of gun-barrels, was
stained with fluid blood which had just been shed. On one
spot near the wall and the door there was a pool of blood
mixedwith clots, which soil-nod to indicate, that a man who
had been grievously wounded had fallen 'there, There
also was a brass candlestick, containing a candle which had
just been extinguished. The panes of the window were
broken ; the sashes of the blind belonging to the window
which overlooked the Boulevard were thrown down,- and
several of the cross-frames of the sash having been forced
out, were perforated with round holes. The paper hang-
ings of the room were stained by a bread and bloody mark,
extending six feet in length. At several points the vapor
was torn, and there the naked wall was marked by the im-
pression of balls, of the fragments of gun-barrels, and of
screws. In front of the window stood a woach'4l frame of
oak, raised. on four legs, screwed-together, and furnished 1
with seven cross-bars. The cross-bars were of different
thicknesses ; those nearest the window were the smallest.
The highest of all, which was furthest from the window,
without being altogether moveable, might by means of the
screws by which it was attached be raised or loWered at
pleasure, according to the direction to be given to the ma-
chine. At this moment it was placed obliquely, with refe-
rence to the window, so as to thee the Royal cortege as it
came from the Porte St. Martin in its progress towards
the Place de la Bastile. On one side the machine was
only one inch ficom the wall, and on the other from 12 to
14 inches. It had borne 24 gun-barrels, arranged on an
inclined plane, in the direction of the Boulevard ; the in-
clination or declivity was from 9 to 10 inches. These gun-
barrels appeared to have been fixed on the frame by
means of two bands of iron, held together at their extremi-
ties by screws : they rested on two index ed cross-bars.
The indentations, to the number of 24 or 25 (on this
point the witnesses vary, although the point has since been
verified) were from 4 to 6 lines distant from each other.
In each indentation a gun barrel was fixed, attached by a
new cord, of the thickness of the little finger. The
breeches of the barrels rested on the highest cross-bar ; 12,
15 or 16, barrels, all smoking, burning, and bloody. re-
mained in their original positions ; 4,5, or 6, had burst
near the breech, _and were lying on the ground in frag-
ments. Two had not exploded, some witnesses say three.
One was found in a press, covered with straw, and seemed
not to have been used. Two of the barrels which had
burst still contained a considerable part of their charge.
This place of desolation was deserted.
All the apartments of the house, No. 50, were invaded
and visited. The agents of police in pursuit of the crimi-
nals were arrested and maltreated, because they were con-
founded with those they sought. The bloody trace of the
latter was, however, never lost sight of. It led to the win-
dow of the kitchen of the apartment on the third floor.
The ladder which served to communicate with the garret
was placed in the opening of the window, to which a double
cord was attached, hanging over the roof of the Cafe des
Milles Colonnes. The sill of the window was stained with
with fresh blood, as was also the external wall in several
places. But while the cellars and the apartments of the
house were carefully explored, other agents of the police
had penetrated into the interior court, and several neigh-
bours were attracted by the noise to their windows, and ob-
served what was passing. At the moment of the ex-
plosion their attention was exaited by the smoke which
suddenly issued from the window of the kitchen.
Almost immediately a man in his shirt, wounded
in the face, and covered with blood, and having no
other dress, according to one witness, but a pair of panta-
loons of unbleached linen, but, according to another, dressed
in a green or brown smock-frOck, and according to a third
in a close coat and a pair of gray pantaloons, appeared at
the window, seized the double cord which was hanging from
it, and slipped down to the level of a little roof which
reaches to the second floor of the house No. 52. There
he threw himself forward, in order to reach that roof, and,
according to all appearance, the rebound of the rope over-
turned a flowerpot, which broke as it fell. The sound pro-
duced by this accident caused an agent of police to raise
his eyes, and to exclaim, " Voila 1' assassin,—there lie is,
escaping by the roof." A National Guard who hastened
to the spot, summoned the fugitive to surrender, and
threatened to fire on him if he refused. The latter, not all
disconcerted, wiping away with his right hand—for his left
was wounded—the stream of I.;,:nd which cor.;red his eyes ,
after vainly attempting to enter the warebonse if chimene,
the riband merchant, whose window was the first he reached
on the roof, proceeded to that of the kitchen of the same apart-
ment, and placing his two hands on the window-sill, the win-
dow being open, throw himself into the kitchen by a sort of
leap or vault. Madame Gomez, tire sister-hi-law of Chimene,
who, in the absence of their mother, had been left in
charge his children, alarmed by the explosion, had just
left the ofefrot window, from wheo'co she had been (poking
at the review, to take refuge in the kitchen. tin advanc-
ing. towards it, by meansiof a passage communicating by a
glass door, Madame Gomez observed a man entering by the
whale-,v, all coven(' with blood, Terrified at this sight,
she rushed towards the door of the apartment, uttering
cries of alarm and shouting for help. The fugitive hast-
ened his steps, pushed Madame Gomez rudely, and said to
her " Let me pass," at the same time wiping away the
blood which blinded hire and. preveeted him from seeing
his way. He descended the staircase rapidly, leaving
every Where a bloody trace behind him, but lie reached the
court tOQ 14e to admit of his escape. A National Guard
was Watching at the door' of the house hi the Rue des
Poses du Tumple, and Captain Bouquet had his eye on the
other outlet. A police agent came up, the fugitive was
arrested, and yarned to the post of the Chateau d'Eau.
On all sides be was assailed on his march, The horror
inspired by the crime of which he was surrvosed. t 9 be
guilty had exasperated every mind, and it was by the Na-

tional Guards, the blood of whose comrades had just been
so in'uttuanly shed,. that his life was So laboriously defended.
Oa being carried to the post of the Chateau d'Eau, the
pri,oler was asked by a National Guard " Who are you ?"
To W:liCh he confideng rep%ied " That is none of your bit
I shall answer when I am interrogated by authority."
.011 h ng searched, there was found on him L sort of eat
with a wooden handle, to which three leathern lashes.were
attached, each furnished at the end with a heavy leaden
bullet, a .pair of spectacles In a morocco case, a five-franc
piece and some smaller cbini,,a }ado with several blades,
and some fine gunpowder, equal in quantity to about four
cartridges. Interrogated for what purpose -this powder
was intended, "Pow' la gluire were the only words which
cause from 'his mouth. He had sufficient presence of mind,
however, to get rid without being observed, of a poinard,
which he threw underthe eamp.bedstead of the post, where
it was found long afterwards. An hour had scarcely elapsed
when Girard was -SUbjeCted to' his first cx--,nation. It.
was then that the. Series of ills confes3ionsdregau. At first
.thev.Were extremely incomplete, resisting every -inquiry
with the greatest cunning and dissimulation ;- but they ended
in becoming as explicit and detailed as they now are. He
was Cat tied to the first floor of the house on the Boulevard,
when-he gave his name Girard, and his profession a Machine-
maker. He, wits repeatedly asked " How many were you ?"
but,he raised only one finger. " When did you begin the
machine ?" He showed two, three;feur, five fingers. "Is
it days or weeks .?" He answered-" Five Weeks..." " Who
gAve you the idea ?" " Myself." " Who commanded the
crime ?" 'He repeated, striking his breast, ".-Myself."
" Did you wish to kill the King ?" He made an affirmative
sign; and.fell into a state of weakness which did not admit
of his making further answers, even by signs, to the ques-
tions which were put to him.

• It was en the 3d of August, 1835, that the trunk was
found in the Rue de Longpont, No. 11 ; it was in a closet.
on the fburth floor, in the possession of a young woman
blind of an eye, who called herself Nina Lassave. It was
a black trtink with a rounded top, strengthened by three
bars of wood, and partly covered with the skin of a wild
boar. It was 31. feet long, 18 inches wide, and 12 or 14
ineheS deep. At the moment that the agents of police
entered Nina Lassave's lodgings, she manifested an ham.
tion to destroy, herself, and it required the use of force to
prevent the etil:cts of her despair. She drew from her stays
a small envelope containing a square piece of paper, on
which were these words :—" You are entreated not to go
any more to see Nina, after this evening she will not be
living. She.leaves in her chamber the thing deposited with
Ler. This is the effect of abandoning her so suddenly.
Adieu ! after my death, come what may!" The girl-Las-
save acknowledged that,thp trunk
.had been brought to her
on Thursday, the 30th of July, by, Duhromet,. the porter,
Whom she recognized. She avowed that the porter had not
come alone, but said that he was acconvanied by a person
whom she did not know. It
,was only after she was made
to see how much her,own interests depended on telling the
truth that. her scruples were overcome, and she acknow-
ledged that it was Morey who brought her the trunk, that
he had &shed her, to take care of it, and that it was for him
that the note already mentioned was intended.
By tracing thk.k itinerary of the trunk, it was discovered
through ,What hands it had successively passed, and this
disco Very was destined to have great influence in the de-
tection of Fieschi's accomplices.

Here a little episode is intiedne'd to the relations. of
Ficschi with Nina Lassave, immediately before the cata-
strophe. He recommended. her not to come into Paris; as
there would be disturbances; and he would rather himself
be out of the way. As she insisted on coming, be warned
her that his door would be. closed on her if she came. She
observed to him that his face was altered, and that he had
a thoughtful air. He answered, that he. was badly sitti-
ated, but would not hear any other question on the sub-
ject. She then asked if he was afraid of being arrested.
" That is not what troubles me," he said ; " I have other
affairs, with which you have nothing to do ; so ask me no
more questions." He repeated his injunction, that she
should not come to him on the following day, the-27th, and
said he wculd go to see her if he could about midday.
On learning, on the 23th, that the King had been fired
on from the third floor of a house opposite the Jardin Tu.rc,
the truth immediately struck her. She came to the spot,
And the window being ; pointed out to her, she recognized it
-.as that of Ficschi. They told her lee had been killed, when
she seemed to lose her senses, Ficschi having been her sole
support. She was afraid, besides, of being arrested as his
accomplice; and, returning home, she carried away her ef-
fects, and went to .concealherr-elf at the house of mm of her
friends. De.;titute of all resources, she carried' some of her
clothes to a pawnbroker, and remembering,Mn intimation of
Fieschi, that if anything should befal him she'.should address
herself to his intimate friend, M. Pepin; who Would take
care of her, she immediately went to his house, but lie•waS
out of the way. Madame Pepin, who had no doubt heard
her spoken of by Fieschi, received her coldly, and answered
drily, that she neither knew Fieschi nor Girard. She then
resolved on going to Morey, whom. she had often seen two
years before coming to Ficschi, when he lived. with Lau-
rence Petit, at the mill of the Cronllebarbe. Besides Pe-
pin, Morey was the only friend that she knew Ficschi to
have, and expected to obtain from him some consolation and
support. She found him at home,. and addressed him all in
tears ;---" Well, what is the matter ?" he said, -- " You know
as well-as-I do," she answered."—" Then it is Fieschi," lie
said, " who struck the blow. Is he dead ?"—" They say so,
but you were with him on Monday ?"—" No, I went out,
hut I was not with him."—" Why do you try to conceal it
from me ?. I saw you with my own eyes together in a
.coffee-house on the Boulevard." He then admitted the
Let, saying, " Yes, that is true." - She then told him all
her distress, when, after a pause, he desired her to go to
the liarriere du 'Prone, and wait for bins there. Morey
then produced a pocket-book of Fiesebi's, and burned the
papers contained in it in her presence, desiring her not to
speak of it to his wife. They met afterwards at the place
