POILIIIGN.

On Wednesday the King of the French and the Royal
family removed from Neuilly to St. Cloud, as their
autumnal residence. The Constitutionnel states that the
King will tomorrow pass in review the troops of the gar-
rison of Paris, and on the following day set out for Eu.
The Presse informs us that General Baron Athalin is
expected from London tomorrow, and that nothing has
yet been decided as to the persons who are to accompany
the King to England. The suite, however, adds the
Presse, :will not be numerous. Marshal Soult is ex-
pected to arrive in Paris before the departure of his
Majesty.
It is believed that M. Guizot will leave Paris for
London on the sth of October. He will not accompany
King Louis Philippe, but will join his Majesty at Wind-
sor. Admiral Mackau is the only one of the Mi-
nisters who will accompany the King from Treport to
Windsor.

The Gazette de Paris says that Marshal Bugeaud is to
return immediately to Trance, and that he will probably
replace Marshal Soult in the Ministry as Minister of
War ; M. Guizot then becoming the nominal, as he -is
already the actual, head of the Ministry.
According to the France there is no truth in the report
that the King and Queen of Naples will come to Paris on
the occasion of the marriage of his Royal Highness the
Duke d'Aumalo, and that the marriage is to take place
at Naples in November.
The Moniteur publishes the returns of the principal
goods imported into Prance in August last, the duties
on which amounted to 13,780,462 f. As compared with
the corresponding period of 1843, there is an increase in
the receipts of 1,487,783 f., and of 2,517,882 f. compara-
tively to 1842. The linen trade, checked by the raising
of the tariff, was fast recovering, and the importation of
flaxen and hempen yarn considerably exceeded what it
was in August, 1842 and 1843. The Custom duties le-
vied during the eight months of 1844, ending on the Ist
of September last, amounted to 100,308,698 f. or
6,687,575 f. more than in' the corresponding period of
1E43, and 10,756,568 f. more than in 1842.

According to a letter from Malta of the 15th, the
misunderstanding between the officers of the Belvidera
and some French naval officers at Tunis respecting a sa-
lute, and which has been described by the Malta journals
as a wanton and gross insult to the British flag,*was en-
tirely the result of accident, and had been satisfactorily
arranged by the intervention of the chief officers of the
respective ships.
The Semaphore states, that Marshal Bugeaud had de-
manded that Abd-el-Kader should be sent to a seaport of
Morocco, so that a French Consul might constantly
watch his movements. .•

The corps of operations of the Moselle (says the
Messager of Wednesday evening) is dissolved from the
late of the 25th. His Royal Highness the Duke de
Nemours will, this day, pass the review of honour, and
distribute the decorations conferred by the King. To-
morrow (27th) the troops will begin to move towards the
different garrisons assigned to them.
A Berlin correspondent writes on the 20th instant :
" Daring the last five years the population of this capital
has been increased by 51,643 inhabitants, or more than
10,000 a year. Within the first eight months of the pre-
sent year the increase has amounted to 11,200. In con-
sequence of this rapid and vast augmentation, the exten-
sive fields of Kmpnitz, which are within its boundaries,
but have hitherto been cultivated, are to be built upon.
This new quarter will contain about 900 houses. The
streets are already traced out, and many lots have been
sold."
On Wednesday the affair of the Tour de Nesle came
on before the Court of .Assizes of the Seine, and is ex-
pected to take up throe sittings. The testimony of the
several witnesses being of a nature totally unfit for the
public ear, the Court decided on having the trial con-
ducted with closed doors. The prisoners, nine in num-
ber, belong in general to the better class of workmen,
chiefly house-painters, and are all exceedingly young men.

of his master. The complainant bad of late pur-
chased a number of dilapidated houses, which were
pulled down under the superintendence of the prisoner,
who had authority to dispose of the materials. In
this capacity the prisoner had received various sums
of money, which it was his duty to have accounted for
to his employer, but instead of doing so, he converted
the proceeds to his own purposes. When he was ac-
cused of the offence, he confessed to it. As other
charges are to be preferred against the prisoner, he was
remanded.

At Queen-square, Charles and Joseph Smart, brothers,
described as mechanics, who were too idle to work, were
yesterday charged with. .4 deserting the workhouse" of

the magistrate that the practice was becoming every day
more frequent. No less than sixteen men had absconded
with their suits within the last few weeks. Mr. Bond
iaid he would only commit the defendants for ten days ;
but if he found that this practice, so ruinous to the
parish, were continued, he should, on future occasions,
inflict the full penalty of two months.
