The Nation, a journal published in connexion with the
Gazette de France, and the responsible editor of which is in
prison for an offence against the laws regulating the press,
has suspended its publication. This is announced as follows
by the Gazette :—"A new responsible editor having become
necessary, he presented himself to the Minister of the Inte-
rior, after having paid to the Minister of Finances 33,000 f.
for his personal cautionment. The Nation has thus already
133,000 f. at the Treasury, but the Minister of the Interior
demands, on account of the appointment of a new responsible
editor, a new cautiomnent of 100,000 f. The Nation will try
the merits of this act of persecution, but at a great expense."
A professor of philosophy at the College of Avignon, who
was suffering under brain fever, threw himself from the win-
dow of his room, last week, and, in falling, broke both his
legs. The shock caused an instant return of reason. The
unfortunate man, on being picked up, uttered a well-merited
reproach. "You knew that I had lost my reason," said he,
" and yet you left me unwatched."
A letter from Algiers, June 29, states that the tobacco
plantation, which had been formed in Algeria as an experi-
ment, have been perfectly successful.
A letter from Pesth' (Hungary) of the 14th ult. says:—
" Baron Salomon de Rothschild arrived here on Monday
last, from Vienna, in the 'Perth steamer. Numerous depu-
tations from all the different corporations, as well as from
the Israelite community, waited upon him, all eager to do
honour, and show their gratitude to a man to whom the city
owes its magnificent bridge over the Danube, connecting it
with. Ofen, the railroad now in construction, which forms a
junction with that of the Emperor Ferdinand, and more than
forty large establishments, which give bread to thousands of
families, besides other great proofs of his charity and bene-
volence. The directors of each of the theatres put one of
their first boxes at his command, and when he appeared in
them the audience rose to receive him. Having visited all
the charitable establishments, he left 10,000 florins (1,000/.)
to be distributed among them. On the 13th he returned to
Vienna."

Mr. Scholefield, son of the late Member for Birmingham,
has received a pressing invitation from an influential body of
the electors, to come forward as a candidate. In his reply
he says—" I assure you that I should have felt compelled re-
spectfully to have declined the request which has been urged
upon me, if Wired not been accompanied by a strong expres-
sion of opinion, that the majority of the independent electors
of the borough would probably concur in the views which
dictated it; and that ultimately the Reformers of our town
would combine in my favour. HI am thus acceptable to my
fellow-townsmen, and union be your watchword, I no longer
hesitate, but cheerfully tender you my humble services in
discharge of the important and responsible duties of your
representative."
