The discussion in the French Chamber of Deputies on the
extraordinary estimates for Algeria was brought to a close
on Thursday, and the amount proposed by the Government
agreed to by a majority of 189 to 39. Attempts were made
by several Members to cast blame on the Foreign Minister,
as well as England, for the failure of General Da LA RUE'S
negotiations with the Emperor of Morocco, but they com-
pletely failed. The Chamber listened to the speakers with
the most provoking indifference, and seemed to approve of
the following just rebuke administered to these disturbers of
public peace by the Minister of the Interior, M. DUCHATEL :
—" Let not those who protest their desire of preserving
amicable relations with England as essential to the peace of
the world affect to believe, inthe face of irrefragable proof to
the contrary, that our quarrels with Tunis and Morocco
sprung from the commercial resentment and suspicious in-
trigue of England. If it was true, you ought to feel
regret at being obliged to say so ; but when it is not
so, it is not by casting seeds of discord between the
two nations that you render a service to your country."
Marshal SOULT replied in somewhat the same style to those
who blamed the expedition against the Kabyles, and said
though due attention had been paid to the opinion of the
Committee who had pronounced the expedition unreasonable,
imprudent, and impolitic, the Government still would con-
sider itself at liberty to reduce the Kabyles when it might
think expedient. The Bill for the conversion of the Five
per Cents. was brought forward in the Chamber of Peers,
when M. LACAVE:LAPLAGNE, the Finance Minister, took
the first opportunity of protesting against the report of the
Committee, which described the proposed measure as unjust.
He had expected to be called upon merely to give
explanations on secondary points, while he found himself
compelled to defend the principle and the undoubted right of
the State. He then tproceeded to give financial details re-
specting Government loans, and the conditions on which
they were made, and contended that in no case could any
sufficient grounds be discovered for contesting the right of
the State to reimburse the national creditors, should such a
course be deemed requisite. The KING returned from Fon-
tainbleau to Neuilly on Wednesday. According to accounts
entitled to credit, the French Court had received an official
announcement that the Queen of ENGLAND would not visit
France this season.

HIGH WATER AT LONDON-BRIDGE THIS DAY.
Morning .. 10 minutes after 10 I Evening .. 42 minutes after 10.

The following are miscellaneous extractsfrom the papers :

A letter from Warsaw announces the arrival of the Emperor
of Russia in that city on the 10th instant. His Majesty intended,
it was said, remaining there until the 25th, when he purposed
proceeding on his tour of inspection through the other provinces
of the empire. The same letter states that the Grand Duchess
Helene and her daughters, the Grand Duchesses Marie and Cathe-
rine, had left Warsaw the previou3 day for Germany.

A letter from Christiana: (Norway) says :—" The Odelsthing
(the principal section of the Storthing) has Just adopted the follow-
ing resolutions respecting freedom of religion. All sects of Chris-
tians may freely exercise their own forms of worship. In mixed
marriages, the education of the children shall be left to the will of
the parents. In cases of conversion from one sect to another no other
consequences shall ensue. It is expected that the Lagthing
(another of the sections) will adopt these resolutions. There are
four sects in Norway—the Roman Catholics, the Lutherans, the
Episcopalians, and the Quakers."

•
The following from Athens, 10th inst„ is given by the lug:-
burgh Gazette :—" Derben Aga Hadji, Houssein of Rournelia, has
had an interview on the frontier with Constantine Doukas, Go-
vernor of Lamia, for the purpose of exchanging assurances of a
good understanding between the two countries. The two func-
tionaries visited each other's quarters, and parted with mutual
expression of esteem."

CHARGE OF WILFUL MURDER. Daniel John
Cock, a waiter, was brought up for final examination at Clerkenwell
yesterday, charged with the wilful murder of Hannah Moore, and
was fully committed for trial.
THE TMOUSAND MILES MATCH.—The eleventh
day has now passed over since Thompson, of Warrington, com-
menced his extraordinary undertaking to walk one thousand miles
in one thousand consecutive hours ; and, judging front appearance,
lie is now almost as fresh as when he commenced his task. A ru-
mour got currency a day or two ago that his feet had begun to fail
him, but there appears, upon inquiry, not to be the slightest grounds
for such a supposition.—Hull Advertiaer.
INSTITUTION FOR DISEASES OF THE EAR.—A ball
in aid of the funds of this useful institution was given on Thursday
evening, at the Hanover-square Rooms, and there was so numerous
an attendance of friends that it may be presumed the object in view
was fully realised.
