In the Spiini.h rhatabiT of Deptuies, on the 26th,
Narvaei, in rqiy ,3,rltAin qu scions ce,pecting the lee
events at Logrono, said that the Government were sure
of crushing the revolutionists wherever and under what-
ever shape they might present themselves ; that the
occurrences at Logrono were already known to the
Chamber, and there remained but to chastise the guilty,
which should be done accordin?, to the laws.
The Municipal Council of Lyons has voted a sum of
20,000 francs for th., expense of the t&-,s which are to
be given on :h.- occ:ision of th- intended visit of th,
Duke and Duchess d'Autuale and the Prince

The l'ha, e of Bayonne of the 29th say. :—" Our c
respondent at Vittoria sends us the following, dated
Nov. 27, and written at the moment the courier was
about to start I have this moment received a letter
from Logrono, dated the day before yesterday, which
announces that Zurbano's son (Benito), his brother-in-
law (Juan), and two other individuals who had taken
part in the insurrection, had been shot.'"
In certain quarters, says the Fiance, a promotion to
the Peerage is spoken of which is to comprise a well-
known name in the Opposition. We hesitate to give
credit to these reports, but it is the friends of the Mi-
nistry who repeat them, and who declare that M. Guizot
has gained a victory over M. de Cormenin in getting
him to accept the Peerage. If this fact be true, it de-
serves being explained ; and if it be a calumny, as we
imagine, it ought to be contradicted as soon as possible.
We are well aware that in the dotation question a desire
exists to get rid of the powerful athlete who has so often
fought against the wishes of the civil list."

A letter from Rome of the 19th ult. states that, not
only the trees and shrubs were at that time in bud, from
the extreme mildness of the weather, but that the
swallows and other birds of passage, which in ordinary
seasons would have long ago migrated to other climes,
still remained.

In the evening of the 27th ult. there was so dense a
fog at Bordeaux that it was impossible to distinguish
objects only a few yards distant.
The Havre journals, in noticing the arrival there of
the crew of the Lucie JostAline, which left Havre a
short time ago fur Newcastle, to take in a cargo of coals
for Algiers, and was shortly afterwards wrecked near
Yarmouth, and pillaged by the inhabitants of the coast,
state that the captain remains in England, for the pur
pose of prosecuting the English pilot, who ran the vessel,
as he thinks, intentionally aground.
The National Swiss Gazette states that great agita-
tion again prevails in the Valais, and that a general ex-
pectation is entertained there of another revolt.
The Minister of the Interior has treated, it is asserted,
with the Rouen Company for the employment of the
electric telegraph. The Government undertakes to pay
all the expenses. The company e ill have a private wire,
which it can make use of fur matt( rs relating to the line.
This was not, it is said, granted without difficulty,
the Government wishing to monopolise the mode of com-
munication as it monopolises the present system of tele-
graphs.
Amongst the objects stolen lately from the residence
of the Blucher family are the magnificent sabre enriched
with diamonds given by the Prince Regent to the old
Marshal, and which oust 10,0001. sterling ; the gold box
which inclosed the freedom of the city of Berlin, worth
4,000 thalers (14,0001.) ; and sixteen snuff-boxes. set
with precious stones, valued at 39,600 f. The whole is
estimated at 43,000/.
