The Osservatore Romano of the 18th announces
the arrival at Rome of M. MICARD, secretary to Car-
dinal DUPONT. It adds that M. MICARD immediately
waited upon General BARAGUAT-D'HILLIERS, and
had a long conference with him, and that the General
returned him his visit on the following day, and again
stayed a long time with him. The Osservatore con-
cludes its article as follows :

" It is said that the Holy Father, being informed that
the mission of the General is likely soon to cease, in-
tends to hasten his return in order to give the illustrious
commandant a personal proof of confidence and esteem,
and that the journey of M. Micard had no other object
but that of coming to an understanding as to the final
steps to bo taken. Cardinal Dupont is still with his
Holiness, and since his Eminence has succeeded in re-
moving existing difficulties, may it please God that no
new difficulties may arise."

The Riferma of Lucca of the 20th, in speaking of
the dispute that has arisen between Tuscany and the
British Government, and of the Sardinian mediation
proposed by the latter, says that the Austrian Govern-
ment has shown great displeasure at this mediation,
and presented a strong note to the British Cabinet on
the subject. Sir G. HAMILTON, according to this
account, has countermanded the grand ball he had
prepared for the marriage of the Archduchess, and
forbid the persons attached to the embassy to appear
in the salons of the Pitti palace. The Nazionale of
Florence stops the press to announce that the
Tuscan Government has refused the Sardinian me-
diation."

COVENT•GARDEN CHURCHTARD.—AS your remarks
upon intramural interment, and the state of our grave-
yards, have been so pertinent and seasonable as to cause
universal attention, allow me to relate what cccurred in
Bedford-street, Covent-garden, on the 19th and 20th of
this month. Eight double loads of the consecrated
ground, full of human remains (as might be expected)
were wheeled from Covent-garden Churchyard, where a
brick grave had been dug, to the bottom of Church-
place, and there remained till removed by carts, to the
horror of the inhabitants and persons passing in that
street—the various bones of the human body being
played with by boys, and jaw-bones, with the teeth per-
fect, taken up by various individuals. On inquiry, you
will find the facts worse than my representation. The
waterman for the coach-stand, who was on the spot the
whole time, was horrified at the desecration be was
obliged to witness.—Correspondent of the Builder.
DREADFUL ACCIDENT.--On Thursday evening

GLASGOW.—THE WEATHER --Yesterday ,as the
coldest day wo have yet experienced this winter. The
frost throughout the day aas most intense, the ice re-
maining firm on the streets in the very centre of the
city, notwithstanding a clear and bright sunshine. We
understand that, for the last two days, the skaters of the
city and neighbourhood have had an opportunity of en-
joying their favourite sport at the fine sheet of water at
Priesth►ll. Should the present keen frost continue, the
lovers of this manly and health-giving exercise will have
an agreeable prospect before them.— Glasgow Paper.

FRANCE.

The Ministers of Finance and of Public Works
attended the Committee of the Budget on Monday.
The Minister of the Public Works read the.draft of a
new Bill for the construction of the Paris and Avignon
Railroad. It differs from the Bill of the late Minister
of Public 'Works in the following particulars :—The
Minister proposes to suppress the subvention of
34,000,000 E offered to a new company by the late
Bill. By this arrangement the eventualities are not
admitted. The new Bill fixes 260,000,000 f. as the
maximum of the capital of the future company, for
which the Government guarantee interest at five per
cent. The State is to divide the profits over eight
per cent., after a lapse of 15 years from the constitu•

THE NOVELTY most recently introduced by
MESSRS. NICOLL is called NICOLL'S PATENT EIDER
DOWN PALETOT, such novelty clnsisting in the adaptation of
Eider Down in the formation of NICOLL'S PALETOT, the original
elegance and utility of which is, however, faithfully preserved.
Eiders are found In great numbers in Iceland and the Fern
Islands, where their beautiful and delicate down is well known to be
proof against the most severe cold, and even the small quantity
which can be compressed and concealed between the two hands, will
serve in the formation of a Palet•t, which, while it has most extra-
ordinary lightness, has, nevertheless, more warmth than the fines'
and thickest blanket, the great desideraium for a winter garment
being thus accomplished, namely, personal warmth without fatigue.
Public inspection Is invited at MESSRS. NICOLL'S wholesale and

HAMBURGH.

Let`ers from llamburgh of the 22d ult. announce
the failure of the banking-house of Messrs. MEINIJoLD
and Co., of that city. The liabilities amount to
200,000 marks banco. It was feared that other
failures would occur.

M. DE SALIGNAC DE FENELON, the new Minister of
the French Republic to the llanse Towns, arrived in
listnburgh on the 27th. lle is the fifth diplomatic
agent accredited by France to the llanse Towns since
the establishment of the Republic.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES

The elections for the First Chamber of Denmark,
which are in two degrees, have just taken place, and
have resulted in the return of a great number of
functionaries, from which it is assumed that the
majority of the Chamber will be strictly conserva-
tive. The elections for the Second Chamber ter-
minated in the triumph of the ultra• Scandinavian
party, which resists all idea of the separation of
Denmark from Schleswig.
Extensive promotions have recently taken place in
the army of Denmark; and at this moment the
urmy consists of thirty-five battalions of 1,000 men
each, of eight regiment of cavalry, of a numerous
artillery, and of corps of engineers &c. In Den-
mark, all the extraordinary war taxes continued to
be levied.

Before proroguing for the Christmas vacation, the
Chamber of Representatives of Schle.,wig- Holstein,
at Kiel, voted, in a secret sitting, that the prepara-
tions for war with Denmark should be actively car•
tied on. It is not, however, believed at Ilamburgh
and Berlin that war will be rene wed.

PRUSSIA.

The Prussian Staats Anzeiger, of the 28th ult.,
publishes the Kitio's permission to eighty-nine
veterans to wear the British war medals.

MECKLENBURGH.

It was stated some time ago that the nobles of
Mecklenburgh-Schwerin, irritated at being deprived
of their privileges by the new Constitution, which
is of a very democratic character (abolishing all
titles and privileges of nobility), had publicly
protested against it, and their representatives
had persisted in meeting under the old Constitution
as the Assembly of Nobles for the Duchies of Meek-
lenburgh Schwerin and Mecklenburgh-Strelitz. In
this the nobles were supported by the Duke of MECK•
LENNURG-STRELITZ; but a few days ago the Grand
Duke Of MECKLENBURG-SCHWERIN =Fed their As-
sembly at Rostock to be dispersed by the armed force.
This act puts an end to the ancient union of the
two duchies of Schwerin arid Strelitz.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Prussia, in
the name of the Prussian Government, bac pro
teited against the new Constitution; the KING and
Prince o PRUSSIA had previously done so in their
own names.

QUEEN BESS.

We now some to Historical Facts, therefore, as tie Clown at
Astiey's would say, " Let us be serious." It is an historical fact,
that the Earl of Essex loved, or pretended so, Good Queen Bess,
therefore he hated the Earl of Leicester, and thence arose a conspi-
racy—Sir Walter Raleigh fears his pipe will be put out —Bacon gets
quite in a frizzle, and Lori Burleigh shakes his head—but there's
nothing in that, whatever they may say to the contrary.
It is an historical fact, that Good Queen Bess was assisted at her
toilet by many of her noblemen, therefore the
GRAND PROCESSION OF THE TOILETTE

is Introduced, in which the Royal Wig 1 the Royal Ruff! ! the
Royal Blushes I ! ! and the Royal Petticoat ! I ! ! will make their

ITALY.

Advices from Turin of the 25th ult., state that the
Chamber has reluctantly annulled the election of
MAMIANI for Genoa,. The President of the Com-
mittee to which the consideration of the validity of
the election was referred, having applied to the Go-
vernment to know whether or not letters of naturali-
zation had been granted to MAMIANI received the
following reply from the Secretary to the Minister
of the Interior :
" Knowing that the Committee, of which your Lord-
ship is president, desires to know in a positive manner
if Count Terence Mamiani) del Rovere, is or is not a
naturalized Sardinian subject, I h.asten to inform you
that no decree has conferred that quality upon him."
In consequence of this communication, which left
no doubt that MAMIANI was not a Sardinian
subject, the Committee reported, but did so with
regret, that the election ought to be annulled. The
report concludes with these words :
" The country has done its duty in giving a solemn
testimony of homage and esteem to this illustrious
Italian. It becomes now the duty of the Government
to justify its conduct to that gentleman to the nation."
These words created a great sensation, and were
loudly cheered by the Opposition. The Chamber
then annulled the election of MAMIANI.
The Venice Gazette contains a notification of the
22d, informing the inhabitants that Field-Marshal
RADETzicy, being apprised of the excellent behaviour
of the people of Venice, has directed that they shall
be henceforward permitted to go out at any time
of the night.

We are happy to observe that the prosperity of
Eliza Cook's Journal not only continues but increases.
The editor—for we observe that the lady disclaims the
feminine termination wheat speaking of herself in her
official capacity—has issued an address to her readers on
the commencement of the new year, full of satisfaction
and acknowledgments for the past and bright hopes for
the future. Although we may not coincide with all the
sentiments she has recorded in such glowing and elo-
quent language, we yet believe this lady to be one of the
most sincere and energetic workers in the great cause of
social ameliorations and improvements ; and if some of
her opinions appear rather extreme, or a little heterodox
in politics, we still believe her to be in the main a friend
to peace, law, and order—good manners and good
morals. While we see reason to maintain this faith her
clever and well-conducted little publication shall receive
our general support without quibbling about details.--

DEFERRED ANNUITIES.

By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to
afford to the public a plan of Deferrei Annuities far more advanta-
geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con-
tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving. may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself In advanced age, or,
at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
death; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of 1113 payments will be returned to his representatives.
The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
tages which the judicious application of a small saving can secure
through this Society.

SOUTHWARK.

Robert Mason, a well•dressed man, in the employ-
ment of Mr. William Jones, linendraper and haber-
dasher, of Newington-causeway, was brought be-
fore Mr. A'Beckett, charged with plundering his
employer of upwards of 1001. worth of property,
principally consisting of boxes of ribbons.
He was committed for trial to the Central CriMinal
Court.

PUBLICITY TO CASES UNDER THE INSOLVENT
PROTECTION Act—Complaints have been made on the
part of persons who have petitioned under the Protection
Act, that their names appear in the newspapers as appli-
cants four times within the year. In the cases referred
to, proposals have long been made to pay the creditors
by quarterly instalments; and protection being granted
for three months at a time, the cases have hitherto
appeared in the printed lists. In order to obviate the
necessity of S 9 much publicity, it has been suggested
that if the quarterly payments are made about a week
before the date of the protection, the names need not
epalappearaeciilny print. There are a great many insolvents,
Government clerks, who will gladly avail
themselves of the re,aletion, and escape appearing
before the public. The payments must be made before
the lists of the week
are printed The subject has
been several times before m the Co. missioners, and they
have expressed their willingness to adopt a plan to avoid
frequent notice of cases, provided no harm was done to
creditors.

PROVIDENTIAL EscApE.—On Monday evening, a
gig belonging to Mr. Reynolds, of Truro, was at Chace"
water, with his son in it (a lad ten years of age), when a
carriage returning from the west, and coming down the
village rather fast, came in contact with the wheel of
the gig, and turned the vehicle completely bottom up-
wards, with the child underneath; strangely, however,
wither the child, horse, nor gig were injured.— West

SPAIN.

Madrid journals of the 25th ult. have arrived.
The Pais and Herald() state that the fact of the Queen
of SPAIN being in an interesting position is now con-
firmed, and the former journal, repeating what was
said a few days ago, intimates that an official an-
nouncement of her MAJESTY'S situation will shortly be
made. It had been settled that the report of the
Committee of the Chamber of Deputies on the Budget
was to be read on Friday ; it would, it was expected,
give rise to long debates. The Senate, on the 24th,
discussed a Bill relative to the jurisdiction of the de-
partment of Finance in smuggling affairs, but the
debate was adjourned. The Espana announces that
the ex-Carlist Generals, VILLAREAL, ZARATIEGUI,
and SOPELANA, have been formally entered on the
army list—the first as Lieutenant-General, the two
latter as Major-Generals. The Herald() states that
the POPE was to return to Rome on the 2d of January.
Two Frenchmen have just been arrested at Sala
manta for forging notes of the Bulk of San Fernando
of Madrid. They indicated a place in which were
secreted forged notes of the value of upwards of
2,000,000 reals.

Accounts fram Manilla, up to 28th October, in the
Madrid journals, state that the most profound tran-
quillity prevailed in the Philippine Islands. A heavy
fall of rain had done great good to the crops. The
cholera had disappeared.

accident, left in the touch-hole of the gun, and
While the seaman was ramming in the charge, the
powder ignited and an explosion took place, which so
shattered the poor fellow's arm as to render amputa-
tion necessary.

ROYAL MARINO.

Captain Urquhart, lately removed from the active
list of captains by her Majesty's command, has been
appointed by the Secretary-at• War to the Paymaster-
ship of the 59th Regiment, now serving at Hong.
Kong.

The military command at Ascension, now va-
cant by the unexpected return to England of Captain
John Miller, has been accepted by Captain Lillicrap,
of the Chatham Division.

Among the many inconveniences to which the
Portsmouth division and the service at large have
been subjected by the removal of that corps to Gos-
port, a want of church accommodation is not one of
the least. From 500 to 700 men attend the little
parish church of Forton on Sunday; the building
for some time wanting repairs, is now in a really
defective and dangerous condition. One of the gal-
leries appropriated for the men is supported by shores,
an,l some fissures of considerable extent appear in the
side wall. To lessen the probability of accident, it is
suggested that until the necessary repairs are effected
one half only of the division should attend divine
service at once.

" COUNTRY QUARTERS," BY THE COUNTESS OF
BLESSINGTON.--'• We hasten to notice this charming
novel, because we are sure that the reading public will
all be eager to loara of the appearance of this, unhap-
pily, one of the latest productions of an accomplished
lady's pen, and also on account of the elegantly-written
memoir of the lamented authoress, by her niece, Miss
Power. Lady Blessington is so celebrated as a novelist,
that it were a work of supererogation to enter into any
praise of her skill in such productions. It is only ne-
cessary to observe that "Country Quarters" will be found
delightful; and those who do not take the benefit of the
advantage now afforded them of revelling therein, will
have reason to blame themselves for losing a decided
treat in the engaging paths of fiction. We congratulate
the novel-loving public on the appearance of a work
which will altogether so charm and interest."—Morniny
