When Queen Vietoria was at Eu last summer on her
visa to the King, her Majesty expressed her admiration
of the charabancs used by the Royal Family for their
excursions in the vicinity, and expressed a wish to have
an accurate model of one of them. Instead of this, his
4najesty, on his return to Paris, gave an order for one,
t°'be finished in the most splendid style, and two days
ago this social and elegant present was sent over to her
-niesty. It is said to have cost 78,0001 r., and the King
was so much pleased with it, that he gave the workmen
a gratuity of 100 louis.
A letter from Constantina, of the 24th ult., says :

Year 1841 refused to present himself to any of the French
commanders of the province. Sixty douars of tribes of

stantine.. It is reported that the Kiaia of Kef was on
the point of revolting against the Bey of Tunis."

is now fixed for the 4th of October. The most active
exertions are making to have all the necessary arrange-
bent finished by that day.

LIBERATION OF MR. O'CONNELL.

GRAND POPULAR DEMONSTRATION.

After the dispatch of my second letter by the
mail this evening, I proceeded to the Richmond
Prison. The streets all along the route were densely
crowded, and in front of the prison an immense mul-

titude were assembled. In a short time the crowd
became so numerous that it was necessary to send
for the Horse and Foot Police to preserve a passage.

Messrs. Ford, Mahony, and Cantwell, immediately
after the arrival of the train at the terminus at
Westland-row, proceeded to the prison to communi-
cate the decision of the House of Lords to Mr.
O'Connell. In less than half an hour after the arrival
of the mail-packet in Kingstown, Mr. O'Connell
and his fellow-prisoners were acquainted with the
fact of the reversal of the judgment. Mr. O'Connell
received the intelligence with great gratification, be-
cause it proved the utter injustice of the sentence
which had deprived him of his liberty, and he was
the more rejoiced at such a result, inasmuch as it was
the solemn decision of the highest court of appeal,
branding the jury list as having been fraudulently
concocted. In this decision of the House of Lords,
Mr. O'Connell recognised the complete justifi-
cation of himself, and the condemnation of
the prosecution, and the instruments by whom
that prosecution had been maintained.. All through
he had avowed his determination never to
submit to the slightest compromise, though his prison
doors should be opened on the condition of a particle
of concession on his part. There were confident state-
ments that the royal clemency would be extended to
the State prisoners if the appeal should be decided
against them. But Mr. O'Connell had determined
never to submit to the slightest compromise, under
any circumstances whatsoever.

HINTS for the ENGLISH in PARIS.
Truly at this moment is London out of town. Nay,
not only out of town, but out of the realm. Any one
who has counted the myriads that for the last month
have weekly bade their native land `. good night"—any
one who still numbers the tens of thousands that con-
tinue weekly to wing their way to continental shores,
will have little difficulty in guessing where London is
now actually to be found. Despite the threatening
murmurs from Otaheite—despite the portentous booming
of the Prince de Joinville's cannon at Tangiers and Mo-
gadore, London rushes onwards to Paris, and Paris, de-
serted by its recreant Parisians, nmy almost be said to be
in the possession of adventurous tour-enamoured Lon-
doners. To carry away the spoils of the French capital ere
the blast of war be sounded—to secure seine of its rich
and unequalled produce in this perhaps their last trip—is
the natural desire of our travelling compatriots. A
few hints touching the selection of their purchases
may not be unacceptable at this critical moment.
The Palais Royal, as a general depot of all that is taste-
ful and graceful, need only to be mentioned. But they
who depart from it without visitinc, the magazine of La-
hoche Boin (16l' escalier de Cristal, have seen but the
half of its attractions and wonders. This is the house,
which, at the last Exposition Nationale, displayed such
exquisite designs in porcelain and crystals as elicited
unbounded admiration, and from which Mr. Wilson, the
agent of our Government, made such large purchases.
For those who have not inspected the stock of this ma-
nufactory, to form an idea of the novel shapes and bril-
liant colours imparted to porcelain and crystal by recent
improvements in the art would be impossible. The
chaste and striking forms of antiquity are reproduced
with increased beauty, and the elegant designs of mo-
dern taste are wrought in a style and with an eclat
hitherto unimagined. To the simple lovers of vertu a
visit to the magazine would be a treat indeed, for here
the rarest specimens of old Sevres, and, in fact, objects
of curiosity all descriptions, and of the greatest
value, are to be found. Ancient and modern art, side
by side, delight the eye, and offer to the connoisseur
the widest scope for the exercise of his judgment and
his choice. Should our sight-seeing countrymen be pass-
ing along the Boulevard des Italins, let them not fail
to enter the handsome furniture manufactory of M.
Osmont. Here they will see the effect of this gentle-
man's imitation of Chinese laquer (La Lague de Chine),
as used in the varnishing and decoration of general fur-
niture. Nothing can be conceived more truly splendid
than a drawing-room suite lacquered with this composi-
tion, which is infinitely superior to that used by the
Chinese, and the invention of which was very de-
servedly rewarded by the' silver medal at the last
Exposition. Hitherto we were forced to be content
with shawl-boxes, screens, tea-caddies, and such like
little articles in this lacquer, which the " Celestials" were
pleased to send us ; now, however, thanks to M. Osmont's
invention, we may have our drawing-rooms and our bou-
doirs entirely furnished in this rich and beautiful 'style.
Mention of the drawing-room and the boudoir reminds
us of la 6elle toilette; and to our fair countrywomen
sojourning in the French capital we say—" As you value
your reputation for elegance, neglect not to consult les
Dames Herbault Mikes, of the Rue Mionard." Besides
the certainty of seeing in the maison des modes of
these ladies such a daily variety of costume and fashion
as absolutely amazes the spectator by its pro-
fusion and good taste, one has the great advan-
tage of being certain to meet there the elite of Parisian
society, and the cream of distinguished foreigners. In
such a circle of stylishness and bon ton, and in the
hands of such artistes as les Dames Herbault Niiees, it
is impossible not to become " the glass of fashion and
the mould of form." English beauty adorned by
French art is truly the perfection of loveliness. As we
are on the subject of female costume, we may as well
give a hint regarding that most important portion of it,
the bonnet. The chapeau de paille still continues the
rage, and a visit to the magazine of M. Flesehelle, of the
Rue Richelieu, is indispensable to ladies desirous of
being regarded as models of fashion. The variety of
chapeaux de pudic is so great that to partieularise them
would be endless. The chapeau de paille fantasie, the
chapeau de paille de ties et paille de riz brode, the chapeau
luovete guipure et paille, iu different colours and designs,
are equally charming and equally commendable fur ele-

The order for the liberation of the State prisoners
is expected to morrow evening. They will leave
the prison on Saturday morning, at ten o'clock, ac-
companied by an immense procession of the citizens,
headed by the Lord Mayor. The procession will go
over the same ground by which Mr. O'Connell had
been led from the Court of Queen's Bench to the
Prison, and from the Courts the procession will go
through the great leading streets of Dublin, finally
restoring Mr. O'Connell to his mansion in Merrion-
square.

A general illumination is spoken of; in fact, all
sorts of rejoicings are projected.
The reversal of the judgment has fallen like a
thunderbolt amongst the Orange and Tory party
here. After the desperate assertion of Sir R. Peel,
that Mr. O'Connell had had a "fair trial," the ultras
here speculated and betted upon a confirmation of
the unjust judgment by the House of Lords. They
are wofully disappointed; but the people rejoice ac-
cordingly.

In all parts of the city placards are exhibited, an-
nouncing the glorious intelligence, and all the streets
are crowded, and perfectly peaceable.
The Repeal Association is not to meet until the
regular day (Monday next), when Mr. O'Connell is
to attend.—Chronicle.

O'CONNELL AT HOME.
DUBLIN, SATURDAY MORNING.—Mr. Gartlan ar-

rived from London by the evening mail packet, of

yesterday, bringing with him the order of the House
of Lords for the liberation of the State prisoners. He

first waited on the Sheriff, and having procured from

him a warrant authorising the Governor forthwith to

discharge from his custody the repeal leaders, he pro-
ceeded to the prison, accompanied by Messrs. Cant-
well, Ford, Reilly, and Mahony, bearing on his

shoulder the monster indictment, and in his hand the

of Ireland and his associates were deprived of their

THE GAME LAWS.—Two of the gamekeepers of
the Earl of Stradbroke committed suicide on Saturday
and Sunday, within twenty- four hours of each other.
Report attributes the death of both of them " to their
anxiety and dread of meeting their master (who was ex-
pected at Henham-park on Saturday, on his return from
his Irish estates, but who is not now looked for till this
week), fearing his anger that such extensive depreda-
tions should have been allowed among his preserves as
have lately thinned the number of his pheasants, &c."
There are other reports to a similar effect, showing that
the anxiety of mind which ended in these unfortunate
men destroying themselves was caused by their solici-
tude about the game they had to preserve. It is not
long since another gamekeeper of this same Lord Strad-
broke was murdered by poachers, and, if our memory
serves us aright, several transportations beyond the
seas were the consequence. Look, then, at the loss of
life, the misery, and the expense to the public, that this,
single landlord's game may be preserved. Let it be held
in mind that, during the last ten years, some thirty
gamekeepers have been murdered, and as many poachers
hanged for the murders—that in one year, namely, 1843,
thirty persons were transported, and 4,500 convicted and
sentenced to fine and imprisonment in England alone,
for infringements of the game laws—that the cost of
prosecuting the " criminals," and in maintaining their
families when thrown upon the parish, amounts annually
to not less than 100,0004 sterling, not to speak of the im-
mense cost of maintaining those who are transported
beyond the seas, nor of the wreck and ruin of virtue and
happiness to tens of thousands, nor of the brutal and re-
vengeful feelings engendered, and the desperate crimi-
nals who are brought into existence and fostered by
these laws ; and who shall say but that they are one of
the greatest curses of our land, and ought, without delay
to be swept from off our statute-book for ever I—Leeds

NEWPORT, ISLE OF WIGHT, SEPT! 7.—Another

land slip of a rather alarming character has occurred at
Atherfield; upwards of an acre of land at the point of
the cliff has moved off into the sea, without giving no-
tice to quit. This part was supposed to be most secure,
being based upon large rocks. The superincumbent
weight, however, has forced these layers of stone, which
it appears reached to no great depth, into grotesque po-
sitions. The inhabitants of a house, which was supposed
to have been erected at a safe distance from all danger,
were not a little surprised one morning at hearing a loud
noise like thunder, which awoke the villagers above, and
on getting up to ascertain the cause, they found their
habitation within one yard of the edge of a tremendous

precipice, the walls of the building giving evident warn-
ing that a further sojourn in it might prove dangerous
to its inmates. It is said that the station-houses appro-
priated to the use of tbe preventive service axe not in the
most safe foundation if another slip should occur.

handed him the order for his liberation. Mr. O'Connell

read it aloud to his friends and fellow captives, and then
returned it to his solicitor, who at once repaired to the
Governor, and handed him the release. The Gover-
nor, with the greatest promptitude, communicated in
the most gentlemanly manner to the State prisoners
that he had the pleasing duty of telling them that

they were again at liberty, and free to return to their
homes.

SERIOUS INDISPOSITION or MISS PEEL.—We re
Bret to hear that, owing to the alarming illness of Miss
reel, daughter of Sir Robert and Lady Peel, that the
Right Hon. Baronet, who had made every arrangement
to accompany her Majesty and his Royal Highness
Prince Albert to Blair Atholl, will not be able to embark
to day for Scotland, as was his intention. On Saturday
morning the most painful advices were received from the
local medical adviser at Drayton Manor, who, it appears,
deemed it his duty to call in additional medical attend-
ance—Sir Charles Clark and Dr. Hodgson from Bir-
mingham having been requested to give their professional
opinion on the disorder of the youthful invalid. Yes-
terday morning a messenger arrived by the earliest
train from Drayton Manor, and was the bearer of more
aggravated accounts, as to excite the worst apprehen-
sions ; and, in consequence, Sir Robert and Lady Peel
left town by the ten o'clock train, yesterday, for Bir-
mingham, with the intention of proceeding direct to
Drayton Manor with all possible haste.
ATTEMPTED MURDER.—Yesterday morning (Sun-
day) the inhabitants of York-street, London -road,
Southwark, were thrown into a state of the greatest ex-
citement and alarm, which lasted throughout the whole
day, in consequence of a most inhuman and murderous
attack which was made upon an aged man named
Richard Barber, residing at No. 8, Lewis's-rents, situate
in the centre of the above street, adjoining St. George's
Market. It appears that the man Barber, with his wife
and son, have been leading a very dissipated life for
some time past, especially the son, who is about seven-
teen years of age, and bears a very bad character in the
neighbourhood. Shortly before eleven o'clock yesterday
morning, whilst they were taking breakfast, a quarrel
took place respecting a book called the" Newgate eaten.-
der," which the son (Thomas Barber) was in the habit of
reading. The father said he (the son) should not read
such works, and attempted to take the book from him ;
a scuffle took place, during which the mother seized a
knife and the son a poker, with which the son inflicted a
dreadful wound on the base of his father's skull, at the
same time the mother, who took the son's part, made an
effort to stab the old man in the left side, but was fortu-
nately prevented by the timely arrival of police-constable
No. 9 M, who was passing the end of the court at the
moment. In a short time Mr. Gellatly, the surgeon of
the Loudon-road, attended to the wound of the man
Barber, which was stated to be of a most dangerous de-
scription. Information having been forwarded to the
Police station in Southwark-bridge-road, the mother and
son were taken in charge and conveyed to the police-
station, followed by a vast concourse of persons. The
man, Barber, who remains under the care of Mr. Gellatly,
is in a very precarious state.

cheerfully obeying the orders of the O'Connell police.
ME RRION- S QU A RE .
As he neared Merrion-square, the tidings that he
was positively abroad spread wider, and fresh crowds
rushed eagerly to meet him, incredulous that he was
there till they had actually seen him ; for it was un-
derstood that he would not leaie the prison until next
day. The people leaped and danced about him, while
their acclamations rent the air. When he entered the
square, having still to pass along the whole length of
one side of it, crowds rushed along the flagways to
secure a place near his house. Mr. O'Connell had to
walk in the middle of the road, but the people still
preserved the whole road in front of him clear, not
more eager to see him than to have him seen. 'Twas
not curiosity, but pride, they seemed anxious to gra-
tify. They wished the world to look upon him, and
behold their Liberator now liberated of right.
Long before Mr. O'Connell had traversed a third
of the distance to the house, or could be seen from it
—for it was growing dark—an immense crowd had
occupied the space around, and cheered, and cheered,
looking towards the door he was to enter by, as if he
were already within his house. By this time there
could not be less than fifteen thousand persons in the
square. Their acclamations never once subsided as
Mr. O'Connell approached; but when he did approach,
and actually placed his foot upon the step to ascend
to his own door, then indeed such an exhibition of

mad Joy took place as we have never seen anything
that it resembled. We were then occupying a place
in Mr. O'Connell's balcony.
The enthusiasm of the multitude seemed incapable
of subsidence ; their acclamation was a sustained body
of sound that smote the air as sharp as pealing mus-
ketry ; hats were not waived, but flung up into the air,
nay, flung away as if the wearers could never possi-
bly need them again. One only thought seemed to
possess the multitude. O'Connell and Ireland had
triumphed. O'Connell was abroad before their eyes
to embody the victory, and the tumultuous joy of the
moment was but faintly expressed by the expenditure
of all the energy and voice they could devote to it.
In a few moments after Mr. O'Connell entered the
house he presented himself at the balcony. The
greeting with which he had been received below was
continued—it could not be exceeded. He frequently
essayed to address the assemblage, but his words were
drowned in the reiterated acclamations that ascended
from the vast multitude, and several minutes elapsed
before their enthusiasm became sufficiently subdued
to permit them to listen even to him. At length,
during the brief intervals of silence, he spoke to the
following effect :

were glad to see me home again.—(Tremendous
cheering and waving of hats.) This is my own
honest home--(Cheering for several minutes)—but I
have come home from a prison.—(Cheers.) In other
ceuntries—(Cheers)_they send the rogues to prison
and leave the honest men at home, but many a paltry
rogue was left at home while I was confined within
the walls of a gaol.—(lmmense cheers.) But God is
stronger than our enemies—(Cheers)—and thanks be
to that God—(Great sensation)—l am here to-night
in my own home.—(Cheers.) The rogues are at
home too, but do they feel as comfortable to-
night as I do ?—(Cheers.) The foul attempt to
destroy the sacred right of petitions, to vio-
late the jury-box, and trample the constitu-
tion in my person—that foul and felonious attempt
has signally failed.—(Loud cheers.) The people of
Ireland have gained a mighty victory, and well have
they deserved that victory—they have—the moral,
the temperate, the religious people of Ireland.—(Tre-
mendous cheering.) In their hundred thousand
strength they were mild as the playful lamb that
crops the herbage as it passes along, and such mild-
ness will they show in their might at present.—
(Tremendous cheering.) Oh, but we'll have la bra
pleasura: to-morrow.—(Loud cheers.) But no man
shall be harmed—no man shall be insulted or offended
—there shall not even be a groan.—(Loud cheering.)
We will laugh to-morrow, and keep the groaning for
another day. I did not make a speech these three
months—(Tremendous cheering and waving of hats)
—I did not make a speech these three months, so my
pipe is a little out of tune.—(Cheers.) In the meet-
ings of 1843—the glorious meetings of 1843—they
called them monster meetings—(Cheers)—because
such assemblages could not be peacefully collected in
any country on earth except our own—(Tremendous
cheers)—not a blow was struck—not a glass of
whisky drank—not even an accident occurred.—
(Cheers.) No one was shoved, or crushed, or pressed
upon.—(Great cheering.) Oh, it could happen no-
where but amongst the courteous people of Ireland—
the people of Ireland that are kind to one another—
the Christian people of Ireland—(Cheers)—and now,
blessed be God, we are here to-night rejoicing.—
(Deep sensation.) We shall have no tumult to-
morrow—a little shout we will have=and some cheer-
ing—the happy bird must chirrup.—(Tremendous
cheering.) And now go home in quiet, and tell every
one you meet that we are to assemble to-morrow in
peace and happiness.—(Cheers.) And then go to
your rest, having first offered up your thanksgivings
to the Almighty that he has vouchsafed to look in
mercy upon his people of Ireland, and I promise you
we will have the repeal.—(Tremendous cheers.)
The Liberator having retired from the balcony—

The HEAD PACIFICATOR then came forward, and
waving his hand to the people, cried out, " Home,
home." Immediately from the vast assembly arose
the cry, " Home, home ;" and then they moved
away, passing the house of the Liberator in one dense
deep stream, and at half-past seven o'clock Merrion-
square was silent, or disturbed only by the footstep
of the casual passenger.
We have been informed that the clerks of the
House of Lords gave the prisoner's attorneys every
possible facility towards hastening the documents
necessary for an immediate discharge. All other
business was cheerfully postponed to dispatch that
which was to give effect to the late decision of the
last court of appeal.

GREAT PROCESSION
IN HONOUR OF THE
LIBERATION OF AIR. O'CONNELL

presented such a mass of human beings since the visit
of George IV.

The procession moved along over Carlisle-bridge,
on its way to Mr. O'Connell's house in Merrion-
square, which it reached about a quarter to six
o'clock, the same degree of enthusiasm marking the
populace as it proceeded. Mr. O'Connell having
descended, entered the house, and shortly appeared
on the balcony, and addressed the immense assem-
blage, thanking them for the grand display they made
in honour of him and his fellow-patriots, and cau-
tioning all against violating the peace.
This may indeed be termed " a great clay for Ire-
land." Mr. O'Connell and the repeal party seem to
have gained much strength by his incarceration.
There will be great work at the Conciliation Hall
meeting on Monday next. Mr. O'Connell will be
there, and it is reported that the Hon. Mr. Caulfield,
brother of Lord Charlemont, is likely to take the
chair on the occasion. The rent will be up. During
the thirteen weeks' imprisonment of Mr. O'Connell
there has been collected 27,0001. repeal rent !

both took their seats, and the procession moved on in
the route prescribed. The other liberated prisoners—
Messrs. Steele, Ray, Gray, Duffy, and Barrett—fol-
lowed in open carriages. The passage was marked
by one continued scene of the most enthusiastic
cheering. All Dublin was out, or in windows.
The most remarkable street in the route was Sack-
ville-street. Nelson's Pillar was crowded, and every
window in the street filled with spectators. The
commencement of the trades' processions arrived at
Nelson's Pillar at 25 minutes to four o'clock, and
its length may be estimated, when it is known that
though going at quick time, they did not entirely
pass till half-past four. At half-past four a tremend-
ous shower of rain fell, which drenched the whole
procession, and threw a gloom over the proceedings.
All underneath was mud and slush. The other parts
of the procession followed, and exactly at a quarter to
five o'clock then triumphal car entered Sackville-

It is almost impossible to describe the scene ; the
spacious street was crammed with a dense multitude
and the windows crowded. As the car proceeded
along, a continued universal shout rent the air. Mr.
O'Connell every minute standing up and bowing to
his congratulators. On passing Nelson's Pillar, the
scene was magnificent; the street presented a jammed
