KONINGSBURG, APRIL 23.—The accounts which stated that cargoes
of arms, fur highly treasonable purposes, had been clandestin,y
brought to Posen, seems to be explained by another statement. A
servant of M. Von Lepski, a member of the Diet at Limskow,
near Ostrowow, gave information that his master had in his house
an immense depot of prohibited arms, and search was immediately
made, and there was found the magazine of Oita arms of the Pius.
sian landwertz, which the authorities had themselves deposited in
the house of M. Von Lepski.

DEATII OF TIIE REV. DR. WELSH.—It is with sin-
cere regret we announce the eleath of this eminent gentleman,
which took place at Drumfetk House, near Helensburgh, on
Thursday evening. He was a man whose mental cultivaLion and
intellectual stores were of no ordinary kind, and which eminently
fitted him for the academical chair which he occupied, first in the
University of Edinburgh, and latterly in the New College con-
nected with the Free Church.—Ayr Observer.

MR. BALFE'S NEW OPERA, " THE ENCHANTRESS."-
Mons. De St. Georges has arrived in town to superintend the re-
hearsals of this opera, the libretto of which he has written. Mr.
Balfe seems to have been inspired by the beauty of the poetry, as
he has been very fortunate in composing many melodies remarkable
for their beauty and freshness of style. There are thirty pieces of
music in the opera, ten of which are sung by the charming Anna
Thillon. Many novel effects are introduced in the overture.
The ',use en scene is worthy of a theatre royal, and the scenery is
indeed splendid, Madame Anna Thillon changing her costume
sevens times.

LEGAL t has been mentioned in 'West-
minster-hall by some of its learned members, that a matter of con-
siderable interest in respect of admissions to the Inns of Court:and
keeping terms for the bar, is about to engage the attention of the
heads of these places, and that important changes will most likely
be effected by the benchers in respect of parsons applying to be
admitted, as 3'Bo of assimilating the practice of keeping terms in
all of them. At the present time the bye.laws of these places ma-
terially differ in the terms of regulations to be complied aith to
