It is stated that B;..varis, seeing. in the under-
standing between the two great Powers a sensible
diminution of its influence, has protested against the
terms of the alliance as contrary to the treaties of
confederation.

We find it stated in the Constitutionelle Zeitung that
Austria and Prussia will sign and issue an invitation
addressed to all German Governments asking them to
join in the Conferences which are to be opened at
Dresden in the course of this month.
According to the statements of the Kolner Zeitung,
there has been no interruption to the Austrian re-
cruitings and armaments. Two battalions of an Italian
regiment were, on the 4th inst., sent by rail from
Vienna to Moravia, and the armies in Moravia and
Bohemia are establishing them elves in their winter
quarters along the Silesian and Sion frontiers. The
two corps are quoted by the same paper at 150,000
men, viz., 90,000 in Bohemia, and 60,000 in Moravia.
Their head-quarters are at Prague and Olmutz. The
greatest :Jctivicy continues to prevail in the laborato-
ries of Vienna, and large quantities of lead have been
purchased
at Trieste, at almost fabulous prices. The
month of November alone must have created a deficit
of at least 5,000,000.

The following uescription of the negotiations at
Olmutz is given by an Austrian authority, and may
Le compared with the details already published on
Prussian authority :—" Soon after the opening of the
Conference, the negotiators agreed that the question
of the preservation of order against the revolu-
E-wsp vtkur,still burning under the ashes in almost the
h. '4 of Europe was the first and most important.

—lt is our painful duty this morning to record the death of
one of the most patriotic and most valued of our countrymen.
Sir John Macpherson Grant, Bart., of Ballindalloch, was
struck with lx;ralysis on Saturday last, and died on Monday,
in the 47th year of his age. Though not robust, the de-
ceased gentleman had for some time enjoyed his usual health,
and the blow was as unexpected as it is lamentable. Since
his accession to the patrimonial estate, about four years ago,
Sir John Grant has lived in Ballindalloch, and has fully
carried out the improvements projected and commenced by
his father, Sir George, the first baronet. The deceased
baronet was one of the three members not appointed ex officio
of the board of supervision for the relief of the poor in Scot-
land an office to which his father, Sir George Grant, bad
been nominated by the Government on the first institution
of the board in 1e45. The loss of such a man is not easily
replaced. He will long be lamented in Strathspey as the
hospitable gentleman, the best of landlords and neighbours,
the farmer's friend, and the benefactor of his country.— Edin-
burgh Courant of Thursday.

had even attempted to strike him with the tongs. In

out for another place.
Jean Baptiste Guichard, a hairdresser of Angou-
leme, husband of deceased's daughter, said he had ac-
companied his brother-in-law to the cures on hearing
of the death, and` that the curs pretended that the body
was in such a state of putrefaction that he had been
obliged to bury it without delay. He even burned
incense to take away the smell, but witness smelt
noshing. Dr. du Sablon told them that deceased had
died fr. m a c,,ngestion of the brain, brought on by
drinking. They asked the cure to say a mass fur
deceased's soul, and he consented. His brother-in-
law subsequently wrote to the cure, stating his suspi-
cions and demanding explanations, but the cute re-
turned no reply.

THE EXTRAORDINARY POISON-
ING CASE.

The trial of the Abhe do-r-thlaud and Madame du
Sriblon, for the murder, by means of poison, of the
widow Deguisal, servant of the former, was proceeded
with by the Court of Assizes of AngoulClme on Fri-
day, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. It continued
to excite the most inteute interest, not only in An-
gouleme, but throughout all the department. The
court was crowded to excess, and vast numbers as-
sembled in the streets to see the prisoners pass from
the prison to and from the court. Once or twice the
people uttered cries against the accused, but they
were suppressed. The female prisoner was on each
day accompanied by her husband, her sister, and
brother-in-law, and on one occasion by a representa-
tive of thl people, one of her relatives. On Sunday
her son, a child of eleven, was placed in the dock with
her ; but his presence created such a painful impres-
sion on the jury and the auditory that he was not al.
lowed to return. The Abbe Gothland displayed on
each day the greatest self. possession, and made occa-
sional observations on the evidence of different nit-
nesses. Madame du Sablon was paler than at first,
and at times shed tears.
Dr. Montalembert, a physician of Angoule me, M.
Lesueur, chief of chemical operations of the Faculty
of Paris, and M. Sicaud, chemist of Angoulerne, de-
posed that they had examined the bowels of the de-
ceased, and had found a considerable quantity (.f ar-
senic. M. Lesueur said it appeared probable that
the poison had been administered at diffirent times
during several clays.
The Procureur of the Republic asked the witness
if he was sure of that.
The witness said that to be quite sure he must
have seen the poison administered himself, but he had
no doubt whatever on the point.
M. Sicaud also said that he was perfectly satis-
fied in his own mind that death bad not. been caused
instantaneously, but from poison administered day
by day.

.•
M. Robert, a druggist at Angoulaie, proved that
he sold Dr. Sablon 60 grammes of arsenic on the
15th, 16,b, or 17th December (a few days before the
alleged murder), and that he had placed on the phial
the inscription " A:-senic—poi•on."
Another witness, named Royer, a druggist, who
had examined the phial after the body of the deceased
was dug up, said that it (lid not contain the quantity
of arsenic which it ought to have cLaie, after taking
into account what Dr. du Sablon had employed to
kill rats.
In answer to the President, Dr. Montalembert said
that half a gramme of arsenic, it absorbed, would
suffice to cause death.
Several witnesses who Lad known the deceased in-
timately deposed that she was remarkable for her love
of life, and that when she had the slightest indisposi-
tion sbe took extreme care of herself. They asserted
that, in their opinion, nothing could have driven her
to suicide. Most of them stated that she was tenderly
attached to her son and daughter, and they to her;
but some said they had heard her complain of them,
especially of the latter. One witness mentioned that
she had rather a sharp tongue, and was somewhat
given to talking scandal. It waa Madame du Sablon
and her sister who had engaged the deceased to be
servant to the cut e ; they had asked a tradeswornau of
Angoulefne to recommend them some one.
M. Ordonneau, brother of the deceased, declared
that his sister could not have committed suicide; she
loved life to well for that. She was not dissatisfied
with her situation at the cure's, and if she had lost it
witness would have provided for her. Witness had
owed 200 f. to his nephew, Edmond, and his mother
wrote to her son, to ask him to let her have 50f. from
him ; such was the son's affection for her that he at
once sent a most touching letter to say that she might
receive the whole 200 f.

Edmond D6guisal, eon of the victim, then presented
himself, and his appearance excited great interest. He
said the, he was living with his mother when she en•
tered the Eervice of the cure. He had then told her

- -
that if the place should not suit her, she could return
whenever she pleased. After a while she told him
of what she had seen between the cutiS and
Madame du Sablon, through the hole in the ceiling,
and she manifested an intention to leave. At a later
period she brought him a letter from the cure, in
which he stated 'bat he was greatly pleased with his
mother, and had raised her wages to 100 f. In pre.
senting the letter, his mother said that she had had a
" scene" with the cure, that she charged him with
his adulterous connexion with Madame du Sablon,
that he bad thereupon told her that she should never
leave him, and had written the letter. The cure, by a

Mme. Guieinird, wife of the last witness, was then
led into the box, but she was immediately stiz9d with
a violent nervous attrick, and was carried Benseles3 from
the court.

Tho witnesses, named Marolani, a pastrycook, and
Tischer, a tailor, staled that deceased had informed
them of tiie adulterous connexion she had witneised

letter dated the 20:h December, announced that his
mother had just died, and recommended him to come
in three or four days to settle accounts. He was sur-
prised that he had not Leon invited to the funeral, and
went off at once with his brother-in-law. When they
arrived the Abbe Graland appeared astonished. He
said decea?ed died of congestion of the brain. He
seemed ill at ease, and hurried from the room to, as
he said, get some wine. As soon as he had gone out
M. du Sablon entered, and told witness that he had
paid every attenlion to his mother. When the
cure returned he said that he had also taken great care
of the deceased, and had given her drink all night. But
the me spoke little.
The President asked the witness whether, on re-
ceiving the news of his mother's death, he was not
suprised, and did not conceive suspic:ons ?—Wit-
ness said that he had at once suspected foul play, in
consequence of what his mother had seen take
place between Madame du Sablon and the cur .
His suspicions were confirmed when he learned
that his mother had been buried with such great
haste.

Guthlaud here ex,laimed that all the woman had
said was ini.nious cdutnnits, but that he despised
them.

The President. asked him to explain how it w
that, it calumniated, he had written such a comp&
ment3ry letter on the deceased ?—lle said it was
piece of irony on his part. She had dictated the let-
tFr, and he now thought she had (iGne so to lay a snare
for him. She was animated with the worst senti-
ments towatds him.

Jarton' a labourer of M. du Sablon, said that when
he asked his master for prison to kill rats, the latter
looked for it in his medicine chest, hut did not find
it. Madame du Sablon said, " You know jou gave
the phial to your mother, and that she brought it
hack partly empty." She then pointed to it on the
chimney-piece, and witness took it. _ _

Several witnesses then deposed to what the de-
' ceased had told them respecting the cure and Ms-
dame Diu Sablon. One of them, the cure's tailor,
mentioned the reports to Gm.hlang, and he declared
them abornin.ible caluvonie. He even requested wit.
'less to tell the bishop that they were current. Wit-
ness observed that even if they were false it could do
the prisoner no good to have them related to the
bishop, but Gothland insisted, and witness told the
bishop.

Madame Guichard, having recovered, stated that
her mother had told her of the correspondence be
tween the cure and Madame du Sablon, and also of
their criminal corm,xion. Witness recommended her
not to leave the cure's on that account, as she had in-
tended doing. The witness gave details respecting
her mnther's litde fortune to prove that dismissal
from the cure's service would have been of no great
importance. _ _ _

Savaignac, the village schoolmaster, said—among
other things—that when deceased was in delirium
just before her death he, on entering the room, saw
Madame du Sablon by the bedside, but when she
saw him she went away. The day after deceased's
body was exhumed witness dined with the curs ; he
was very gloomy, and spoke of the probability of his
being sent to prison.
Madame Savaignac said that the deceased had
been very thirsty, and vomited a good deal. She
added that the beadle had told her that he had seen
the cure and Madame du Sablon leave the church al-
most together late one eveaing.
Jeanne Berne, servant of Madame du Sablon, said
that she prepared soups and drinks for the deceased.
Her mistress was present. She sometimes went away
whilst the things were on the fire, leaving her mis-
tress to watch over then:. Had tasted a soup in
which Madame du Sablon had put salt, and found
that it was too salted. &certain white soup, on which
the prosecution laid great stress as having been pre-
pared by Madame du Sablon was, the witness now
asserted, prepared on a Wednesday, not a Tue,day ;
but this was in contradiction to what she had stated
in the preliminary examinations. She now also stated
that she was one day surprised at seeing the deceased
descend the stairs of M. ou Sablon's house ; and she
asserted that she was now convinced that she had
then gone to get poison. But not only was it
stated that the witness bad never bt fore men-
tioned this circumstance, but it was proved that
deceased could not, as witness pretended, have
entered the house on the day in question without being
seen. The witness had herselt been implicated in the
accusation, and had undergone five months' imprison.
rnent, but her innocence had afterwards been ascer-
tained. Her evidence altogether, however, was in
such flagrant contradiction to her first statements, and
so tnanitestly false on other points, that the Court de-
clared her guilty of perjury, and had her arrested.
She was sent to gao'.
A female named Blanchet

sickness, and saw the cure prepare sugared wine for

The President observed that accused could not ex-
pect to be believed, as he had spoken falsely during
all the pt elintioar3 examinations; as he had even told
a lie in stating to witness that the death had occurred
on the 20:h, whereas it had occurred on the 21st, and
at., moreover, he hrid lied in sayiDg that deceased had
received the st.crantents.

Madame do &Non wrote her a letter rt questing her
as a friend to visit her at once, in company with lino..
ther friend, Ml:e. Elodie Doury. The letter said—
" I an ii.nocent of what I am accused of, but it i.
hard to be suspected when one is withou,
reproach. I have my conscience for me,
'hut I am not the less unhappy." Witness and
Mlle. Doury immediately went to Sublons' house.
They found the door of the staircase closed, and the
sabots of M. and Madame du Suhlon on the lowest step.
They attempted to force open the door, but not suc-
ceeding, they sent for the village blacksmith, who
opeaed it. They found the door of the bed-room
closed. " Ah! Mon Dieu r cried Mlle. Doury,
"some misfortune has happened." The servant who
accompanied them begun weeping. Witness said—
"It is not tears we want, but action and courage !"
and she made the blacksmith open the door. She
then entered the room. It was full of smoke.
" Ah," she cried, " the unfortunate creatures have suf-
focated themselves !" She immediately opened the
windows. The little boy was on the bed ; Mlle.
Doury caught him in her arms, and carried him to
the window. The lather and moiler were in an ad-
jacent cabinet, the door of which was closed. At the
bottom of the door-some cloth had been thrust to pre-
vent the entrance of air. The heat was suffocating.
Dr. du Sablon was lying on a mattrass, with his head
hanging down. Madame du Sablon was leaning with
her head on the legs of her husband, and was close to
a burning pan of charcoal. The hair of the doctor
was on end, his eyes were turned up, and his mouth
was covered with foam. Witness carried out
Madame du Sablon, and Mlle. Doury cried for help
from the window.
The President asked Madame du Sahlon if before
attempting suicide she had not bad an explanation
with her husband ?—She replied in the affirmative.
' The President—This explanation must have been
very grave; there must have been a very long conflict
between you? Accused—lf my husband bad con-
sidered me guilty, he would not have sacrificed his
life to me.

President—You do not reply to my question. Ac-
cused—My husband said he would sooner see me die
than go to prison.

President—But if you were innocent, you ought to
have told him that you would not consent to commit
suicide. Accu'ed—l did not Nish it, but my bus-
bald insisted.

President—And you determined to put your child
to death with you? Accused—lt was my husband
who wished it.

President—You did not speak of suicide in your
letter to Mme. Marchadier? Accused—No; but 1
sent my servant with the letter to get her out of
the way.
President—At that time (the sth February) you
were not threatened with arrest ? Accused—My
husband had asked the Procureur of the Republic ii
he were concerned in the affair, and on receiving a
reply in the negative, my husband said, " And my
wife P" " Ah !" said the Procureur, " as regards yuur
wife it is a different thing."
The Procureur of the Republic observed that he had
not said this.

attempt, however, complOely failed, and as to the in-
ference s')ught to be esttudished, that also WAS nega•
tined by the tact that tor three days before her death
the deceased had been confined t-0 her bed, and that
every thing she had taken during that time had been
preparedfor h. by the accused. On Tnursdaypublic the
pro.ecutor replied, and the jury returned a
verdict of Guilty with extenuating circumstances
against the Priest Gothiand, and acquitted Madame
du Sablon. The Court sentenced Gothland to the
galleys for life.

President--It was then that your husband took the
resolution of committing suicide ? Accused—Yes.
Here the letters which Dr. du SThlon wrote to his
parents and sister were read. They excited great
emotion in the court. Madame du Sablon wept bit-
terly ; her husband also wept ; and the accused
Gothland, who had displayed almost stoical firmness
during the trial, had great difficulty in restraining
his emotion.

The accused observed, " Ohl as to the last point,
I said that from Christian charity !" (This caused
murmurs of disapprobation in the court.) He then
complained that the examining magistrates had acted
unfairly in the investigation, and intimidated the wit-
nesses ; but the President .aid such a complaint was
unfounded.

The cure of llarthon, M. Minard, buried the body
of the deceased. When the coffin was conveyed into
the church, the accused, Gothland, recommended that
it should be borne as gently as possible, as the corpse
exhaled a bad smell. Some time after the accu-ed
expressed the opinion that perhaps deceased had poi
toned herself. The deceased had expressed to witness
the fear that the accused would discharge her; and
on his saying that her children would asatet her, she
said that they had ill-treated her, and that she would
however,
sooner die than apply to them. He, did
not think that this was serious.

Witness then said that bin mother, on telling him
of the connexion she had witnessed between the two
accused, had expressed a determination to leave the
cure's but he hed told her to remain.

In answer to the jury, it was stated that the ceiling
through uhich the deceased bad seen the two accused
on the bed was foiined of two wooden planks.
Gothland here stated that at the beginning of NO-
umber he had bad a quarrel with his servant, be-
t .at't >

The case was proceeding when the report came
away.

(the inference sought to be established was by the
