ST. PETERSEURGH, DEC. I.—The cold is still
very considerable here. Snow is just now begin-
ning to fall more frequently. The navigation,
however, is still open, and up to the 11th No-
vember 1,070 ships arrived at Cronstadt. Ac-
cording.to letters from Jassy, Prince Sumo, the
Hospodar, had put an end to the abuses practised
by the monopolists, the bakers and butchers, at
the expense of the poor, by a very efficacious
remedy, which is usual in Turkey, that is, he
had some of these bakers and butchers nailed by
the ears to the pillory in the market-place, and
let them remain there some hours. The bread
was immediately of a larger size, the flour un-
adulterated, the meat fresh, and all cheaper.
STOCKHOLM, DEC. B.—lt seems certain, that
some complaints have been made to the Supreme
Tribunal of the measures taken by the Governor
respecting the intended Debating Society. ' The

King has addresse I a rescript to Baron Edecranz
(the Governor), in which his Majesty, after no-
ticing-the statement sent him by the Governor of
his proceedings, says—
We have taken all this into our gracious consideration,
and as we find in examining the Statutes intended for the
Society, that the Society forms a corporation, which in re•
spect to the tendency and the object is not admitted by the
laws and the constitution, we do, on account of the abuses
and irregularities which- might probably arise, even contrary
to the intention of the founders, graciously approi.e of th-e
measui es you have taken. It is your duty, observing what
the laws and constitution preset Ow to provide that such cor-
porations as the above-mentioned be nut formed. We recom—
mend you to the divine protuction.

TROPpAu, DEC. B.—liis Majesty the Empe-
ror of Russia has issued an Ukase respecting the
conduct of the regiment Semenoff. His Majesty
in this Ukase, or rather order of the' day, to the
army after shortly stating the circumstance, which
the whole army will learn with regret, says,
that the Russian army has hitherto been as much
distinguished by its fidelity and discipline as
for its valour ; that without obedience an army
loses all its honour; that the troops know that
they have every means to make known their
just complaints, as there are four annual
inspections, at which the law commands every
one to produce any grievance of which he thinks
he has to complain. The regiment Semenoff was
formed by Peter the Great, accompanied him in
all his campaigns, and has of late years maintain-
ed its glory, especially at Culm. The individuals
who have so misconducted themselves are there-
fore unworthy to wear the uniform of this regi-
ment. His Majesty is, therefore,under the painful
necessity of disbanding it. The subalterns and
privates will be' distributed among the regiments
of the line ; the most guilty Will be tried by a
Court-martial,and rigorously punished. The Staff,
and superior Officers, who have not partaken of
the crime, and endeavoured, in vain, to restore
order, proved that they did not understand how
to treat the soldiers, and to make thetnselires
obeyed ; they are therefore to be placed in the
regiments of the line, but, in consideration of
their conduct, to retain the privileges of officers
of the guards. Colonel Schwartz will be tried
by a Court-martial, because he did not under-
stand by his conduct how to keep the regiment in
obedience.

Orders will be immediately issued to fill up
the Semenofr Regiment of the Guards from the
ranks of the army, which contain brave men
enough worthy to wear the uniform of this dis-
tinguished,Regiment.
COPENHAGEN, DEC, 16.—A Commission, con-
sisting of three Members of the Aulic Tribunal,
is named to try Dr. Dampe, and his accomplice
the smith, who are to be proceeded against by
the Attorney-General.

SOLEM QUIS DICERE FALSUM AUDEAT?

LONDON,
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 26, 18.'0.

It appears that there is a strong Party in Swe-
den, attached to the late Royal Family of that
Kingdom, not with any idea of restoring the de-
posed Monarch to the Throne, but in favour of
his Son, who is generally considered as one of
the most amiable and accomplished Princes
in Europe. It is suspected that a powerful
neighbouring Potentate is fully aware of the
existence of the Party alluded to, and is by no
means hostile to its views. Indeed, the dis-
carded Royal Family of SWEDEN is connected
with the Power in question by consanguinity,
in addition to those feelings of jealous pride
which he may be supposed to feel on the occa-
sion. We learn by the foreign Journals that
the reigning King of SWEDEN has thought
proper to suppress a Debating Society which
had arisen in the Capital, and which' was
deemed too free in its discussions on popular
rights, and the original principles of Govern-
ments. According to the accounts which we
have received, events' of no little importance are
likely to surprize the world in that quarter, when
the measures in agitation at, Troppau have been
fully carried into effect.

We have had no arrival of. Paris Papers this

morning.

Marseilles Paper (The C,aducee) announces
that a wealthy Englishman, a coldhel in the
British army, who resided at liieres, has lost his
life in a most melancholy manner. lie was pas-
sionately fond of shooting, and was usually ac-
companied by a faithful gamekeeper, who, in
firing at some game, missed his mark, and struck
his unfortunate master, who had come suddenly
from behind a hedge without being perceived.
The Colonel died instantly. The poor game-
keeper returned distracted to the house of his de-
ceased master, accompanied by a dog, which rent
the air with his howlings. Two other dogs re-
mained by the side of the corpse, and the 'first
returned and acted as guide to the persons who
went in search of the body. It was with con-
siderable difficulty that they could succeed in
tearing away the faithful animals who surrounded
their deceased master. The gamekeeper will, it is
said, be tried for his life, although there are no
suspicions of his being a murderer by the family
. -
of the Colonel.
