MATCH FOR ONE HUNDRED POUNDS.
A bay mare, the property of Mr. Charles Wagstaff; was ba•k,d n
perform fifty miles, in six hours (either to walk, trot, or gallop). in har.
ness. The match came off on Wednesday last, the mare being driven
by the owner (not a very skilful whip), and performed the distance in
five hours and thirty minutes and a half, being very little distrerstd.—
The start took place from the first mile stone on the Ely road, to the
tenth beyond the town of Ely on the Littleport road ; the mare did not
once break from the trot. A partial quibble t 0.4 place between
two or three persons as to the payment of their bets, in consequence of
the mare having been in some degree encouraged by a third party to go
over an awkward drain opened in the road that morning, but it b. iug
decided that the harness was not touched, the stakes were given up,
and the principal bets paid. A very considerable sum of money war
pending upon the result. The same mare is matched to perform fifty
miles in five hours, to be driven by Mr. Al.Doual, within three months
from this time.

LONDON.

MONDAY. DECEMBER 6.

This day despatches, addressed to Lord Viscount PAL-
MERSTON, were received at the Foreign Office, from their
Excellencies Lord STUART nr RoritsA Y, our Minister at
Paris ; and from the Right Hon. Sir CHARLES BAGOT, our
Ambassador at the Hague.

Our readers will not fail to notice in the subsequent
columns a rumour of a Treaty, offensive and defensive, signed
on the 24th November, between France and England. We
are not informed of the authenticity of this intelligence.

We have accounts by the Brazil Mail of this morning, by
which wo find that there is a change of Ministry at the
Court of Rio Janeiro. BA RBACENA was dismissed on
account of extravagance in Europe. CALMAO has also
been displaced—and J. A. LlsnoA, and FRANCISCO CAR-
NiARO DE CAMPOS aro appointed in their room. The ac-
counts from the mines aro favourable.

We observe that the accounts from the country, appear
not quite do satisfactory as those on Saturday. It is hardly
to be expected, that the measures of prevention cau yet have
come fairly into action; nor can there bo expected from
them—unless something more be speedily done—a cessa-
tion, entirely, of the excitement at present existing through-
out the country. Until the wisdom of legislation accom-
plish an effectual amelioration of the urgent distress, or
adopt some means to assure the public, that the remedy
is on the way, it is to be apprehended, that fresh instances
of the impatience natural to hunger, will show themselves in
different districts. It is singular to observe, that some of
the poorest agricultural districts are the most quiet. In-
deed, the fires appear to have been more, where there are
great farms, than small ones.
We have frequently said, that the removal of tax-
ation to the fullest practicable extent, will not improve
the situation of the labouring poor ; and that tax-
ation was not the cause of this distress. This
is our firm conviction; and we would remark, that
while every possible retrenchment should bo made, other
remedial measures should not be delayed. As for the chil-
dish declamation, which is too frequently poured forth on
the subject, against the cruelty of the rich who oppress the
poor, it is really calculated to have a mischievous tendency,
;uid stimulate to the very lamentable acts, which are depre-
cated. Indeed, such a style of addressing the public,
can obtain no attention, except from the miserable
ignorant beings, who wildly think to remedy their evils,by
burning a corn-stack ! The only reasoning—if it deserve
the name—by which the corn-stack is burned, is the Wend-
ell reasoning of the paragraphist, who attributes the evil to
the cruelty of landlords.

The canscd of the distress are several. It cannot be ac-
counted for, perhaps, on any one principle ; nor can it be re-
moved by the application of any one sudden specific. The
great fact, however, is, that we have come to a period when,
from an increase of population, and a diminution of employ-
ment, there are always two or more aspirants for every job;
and, consequently, two or more aspirants for every plate at
Nature's board. Cau this fact be doubted ? Are we not
now a population of sixteen millions and were formerly—
only in 1801—one of ten millions ? Has not our com-
merce, which is one great source of employment, much
diminished ? and, lastly, has not our machinery much
increased ? In 1823, it wad stated, by Mr. Ownt,
that within the last forty years, the now power of
supply in Great Britain, derived from science, ex-
ceeds the labour of 350 millions of adults. We do not
k now from n hat data this was ascertained ; nor is it of
much consequence, as to its correctness; the substitution of

The report of war has given to our youth a rapture which
shows itself throughout France; a great number of young
citizens have presented themselves to the authorities, to con-
tract their voluntary enrolment.---fdeon.

The model of the cross which is to be given to those per-
sons who distinguished themselves in the glorious days of
July has been dfinitively ordered. The cross is composed
of three triangles in enamel, upon each of which is one of
the dates 27, 28, 29. The summits of the triangles are
united by a czttre, upon which is written in letters of gold
the word "July." The bases are united by the aid of a
crown of laurel. The cross is surmounted by a crown simi-
lar to that of the Legion of Honour.—ldem.

We are written to from Angers, under date of the lst'of
December, that the young soldiers of the Department of
Maine-et-Loire, called under the flag, set off the morning of
the same day, for their several destinations with an enthu-
siasm difficult to describe, and which carried us back to the
fine days of 1791. Tho view of the tricoloured flag, which
had been presented to each detachment, for rallying their
march, by the general commandant of Angers, and the
allocation then made, produced a rapture truly extraordi-
nary ; the words of the general wore followed by expres-
sions of tho most devoted attachment to the king of the
French, and the glory of our arms.—Moniteur.

Extracts of a report addressed to the minister of war: "The
review of the departure of the young soldiers of the class of
1829, called into activity by the Ordonnance of the 18th of
September last, commenced at Sit. Briene, department of
Cotes-du-Nord, on the 29th of November. Out of 567
men called for the same day, 535 presented themselves with
the best will in the world. Never in any times, has an ope-
ration been made, with more calm and tranquillity, and
offered results more happy. It will be the same, we have
no doubt, in the levees of the month of December. There
is wanting then only 34 mon, who, for the most part, will
join before eight days. It is well known that some are
always absent, or some sick. It appears that enough is
shewn to prove the mind of our inhabitants, and reply in a
victorious manner to the false reports which have been
spread upon the dispositions of our country." The minister
of war proposes to make known in this manner, all the De-
partments whit.:ll show the same satisfied zeal, and are im-
pressed with the obligations which the law imposes on them.
, —Moniteur.

The events in Switzerland begin to take a very serious
character. The reform of the aristocratic constitutions of
several of the Cantons is demanded by the people, both of
towns and country ; already at Zurich, at Arace and at So-
leure, the governments of the cantons have acceded to the
wishes of the majority of the inhabitants. They write us
from Zurich, dated November 26th : " The revolution tri-
umphs in our neighbourhood. The grand council were as-
sembled yesterday, from eight o'clock in the morning until
seven at night, and ceded to the imperious demands made
in the name of the people assembled on Monday last, at
Uster, in number more than twelve thousand men. Two
thirds in the cantonnal representation have been granted to
the rural com:aunes ; the elections will take place with the
least possible delay. The Government of Argovie was in
formed that the people proposed to march upon Aran, if they
did not at once suspend the elections, which were about to
take place, till after the constitution was formed, and seek
to appease the discontented by countermanding the elections,
and in convoking the grand council to occupy itself in
the revision of the constitution. There is scarcely a town
or village is in that canton, but one sees the tree of liberty,
which is, notwithstanding, not decorated with the tri-
coloured ribands, as we said formerly, but with ribands blue
and black, which are the colours of the canton ; or with
white and red, which are the colours of the Swiss Confe-
deration." The news from Lucerne and Soleure is of the
same nature.—Journal des Debate.

At the Exchange there appeared hesitation for the last
forty-eight hours upon the ministerial communication,
decided to-day. The rise in the funds proves that confi-
dence in peace is renewed. The report spread of an alliance
offensive and defensive, between the two grand constitutional
monarchies, which are in equal want of each other, has
encouraged speculation. We know not whether this alliance
is written in a treaty; but is temporarily in the nature of
things, and in the necessity of the times. The world will
stand in awe of France and England united. Europe, for
the last forty years, would have been nothing against France
without England. England alone overthrew Napoleon.
These two great powers may finish by a war of extermina-
tion, or by an intimate alliance, and it is not in this age of

illumination or civilization long to hesitate upon the choice
to be made.—Le Temps.

Several journals speak of conferences begun at London,
for the conclusion of a treaty of alliance between France
and England. This news is probably a little premature, but
every thing indicates that the policy of the cabinet tends
towards this end. Should that union take place, little dan-
ger will be apprehended for the liberty and independence of
Europe ; neither war nor coalition would be dreaded. It is
not only by their military means, all immense as they are,
that these two states are powerful : it is still more so, by their
institutions. Two free nations bound by an intimate union,
placed in front of three or four nations who aspire to be so,
will stifle the efforts and the wrath of kings,leagued to re-
press the soaring of the human mind. When the principle
nations of Europe, form an alliance which will be so fruitful
in happy results for other people, one will smile at the poor
manifest, which the affairs of Belgium has inspired in the
German confederation. The Princes, bound against them
by a federative act,which has been one of the means to esta-
blish the supremacy of Austria, have promised aid and suc-
cour to maintain the treaties, which have placed them in a
state of vassalage at the will of Prince Metternich. A blow
made by the confederation will not last long : then the
Belgians will be the conquerors, and the King of Holland
remain proprietor of the Duchy of Luxembourg. All that
is false and illusory, is all which establishes the Congress
of Vienna ; it it an organization against nature ; it is tot-
tering and precarious; the first French flag which appears
on the borders of the Rhino will make it crumble. If it
fails to prove the influence which Austria exercises upon the
confederation, we shall find in it admirable means fur
showing, how she conspires to ward off the dangers
which menace it.—An order to the police not to permit
the movements to be spoken of, which are bursting
in Germany, and all is saved ! The mind of the people,
their rapture towards liberty, will not be stopped
by some delegates of the police imposing silence en the
journals. Who would not raise their shoulders on seeing
this last effort of the spirit of these old chancellors ? Why
do they not take pity on decrepit despotism, which would
employ arms for another age against the ardent and gene-
rous spirit which shows itself in all pelts ? They only pro-
claim their weakness and impotence, and inform the people,
that when they wish to be delivered, they may whistle it
down. The luminous conceptions of the Congress of Vi-
enna, pretend still to make the base of European policy, car-
rying every where similar results. The people, wearied' by
suffering and useless reclamation, revolt and provide safety
for themselves. Belgium has detached itself from Holland.
The country of Porentrui violently detached from France,
whereof it was a natural frontier, bears the tri-coloured flag.
Switzerland is entirely in insurrection against that stupid
constitution of 1814, which violence substituted for that of
1796. The Holy Alliance has tortured Europe by making
it enter into a system which force alone caused to prevail.
At present, Europe wishes to return to an order more natu-
ral ; the authority of the Congress of Vienna is no longer
any thing to her ; there is an authority more imposing, be-
fore whom all others disappear ; it is the will of the people.
—Courrier Francais.

Much is spoken of to-day of a treaty of alliance offensive
and defensive between France and England. We are very
much disposed to believe the sympathy of the English na-
tion, for the cause of France and Belgium ; we also believe,
that the steady thought of the new minister, is not to place
himself in opposition upon this point, with the wish of the
English ; but be is far from the disposition of those who would
join the two governments in an alliance, offensive and defen-
sive, against the Continent. By the change of ministry
which has taken place in England since our revolution, we
think that Lord Grey is incontestably more a friend to the
principles of it, than the Duke of Wellington, we also think
that the policy of England rests, and will remain the same,
a provisional neutrality.
There is at present two sorts of war; the wars of principle
until the wars of establishment. From the wars of reilgion
unto those of the French Revolution, with the exception of,
the enterprises of Louis XIV. to re-establish James the
Second, they have been wars of establishment; and have
been fought to possess a city, a river, a province, or a com-
mercial privilege. The whole of the eighteenth age is full
of these wars, which have given a colour to make blood flow
to change geographic boundaries. Our Revolution of 1830,
quickly and forcibly followed by that of Belgium, inevitably
reduces it to a war of principle or a war of establishment,
probably the two at once. England, with the Duke of
Wellington at its head, it is probable, held a liberal
conduct towards us. England saw the Bourbons escape
from the alliance of the English, to draw closer an
alliance with Russia ; she regarded it as having
been played by them in the affair of Algiers ; it was the
interest of Russia to uphold it. But the revolution in Bel-
gium has singularly complicated she question. The Huly
Alliance have well mixed some temporal interests with fana-
tic exigencies of the royalty of divine right. The kingdom
of the Low Countries, divided in two, by imperial France, and
not having been done so only to create another legitimacy,
but to strengtlen France ; like France, it was made a repub-
lic : neither Bonaparte nor the Bourbons were to reign there.
It has been armed by us to punish those who called us unjust,
violent, usurpers, our principles enemies to all existing mo-
narchies ; we have conquered ; and by a contradiction which
is as embarrassing as forcible, we are now designated just,
moderate, exempt from ambition; thus each judges accord-
ing to his convenience.—Le National.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCIL
The Exprors from Paris this morning does not bring any
news of material importance. Lafitte has demanded a vote
of credit of 300 millions of franks, and it appears that the
Hebrews in France are treated with a generous sympathy
worthy of the French nation. Their clergy in future are to be
paid by the Government.
It appears that Don Miguel was near going a journey to
the next world, but it was unfortunately delayed by the
timely assistance of one of his domestics.
We observe in a French paper, received this morning,
that it was understood at Paris that a Treaty, offensive
and defensive, between France and England, was signed
in London on the 24th Nov. which treaty has arrived in
Paris for the ratification of the King of the French.
The private letters .from Rio Janeiro, of this morning,
state that several failures had taken place there, which has
caused money to be scarce in that Capital. The Exchange

(IMPORTANT INTRILIOINCL)

We have just received, says the Morning Herald, in a second edition,
the Messager des Chatabres, the Goalie de France, and La Revot.,.
lion, of Sunday, and the whole of the papers of Friday and Saturd;.-
Their columns are interesting, being chiefly filled with the cn„.
tinuatiec of the preliminary proceedings against the ex- Alinlfite,,
of Prance. The continuation of the depositions of the pr!ncipzi
witnesses is extremely remarkable, and particularly the 0,.
dences of M. de Komerouski, an old Aid.de-Cautp of ,;
Duke of Ragusa, relative to his interview with Charles X. whilst
massacre was going on in Paris. This witness repeated to the Comiti,.
sion the sanguinary and violent expressions which the King uttered c.
that occasion, when speaking of the population of Paris. W, have or y
space to allow of a short extract from the deposition of this witr.ei,
the remainder, as well as the other depositions, we must defer until t
morrow.

" On the Wednesday I was sent by the Marshal to St. Cloud, AG,
four o'clock. I was the bearer of a large despatch for the King,
directed to make the greatest haste. The Marshal had orderea re.!: *

Having been introduced into the King's apartment, I handed to hie:
3larshal's despatch, and gave him a verbal account of the exact state et
things in the capital, telling him,at the same time, some prompt tleter-r.:.
nation was absolutely necessary. I explained to him that it via% r.c.,
alone the populace of Paris, but the whole mass of the inhabitat.a
which had risen, and that I was able to form an opinion on that point
as I was going through Palsy, where gun-shots had bete
rested against me, not by the populace, but by persons of a higher
situation in life. The King replied, that he should read the dcipatch,
and I then retired to await his orders. None having been sent in the
due course of time, I requested the Duke of Duras to go in to t.::
King, and ask if there were any; but the Duke observed that, "ec
cording to etiquette, it was impossible for him to enter the Klett,
apartment at the expiration of twenty minutes." I was, however, st
last called ihto the King's closet. He gave me no written despatch,
merely ordered me to tell the Marshal to hold finn, to collect his tam,
upon the Place du Carrousel and the Place I.ouis XV. anti to act rift.

Duchess of Berri and the Dauphin were present, but they said netbitg.

Don Miguel had a narrow escape of being assassinated on th.t
of this month, as he was about to have the Palace of Ajuda. The tut.
lowing particulars are communicated in a letter of the 17th tilt. An in.
dividual, extremely well-dressed, presented himself at the Audittlee
Chamber, and contrived to glide unobserved into the corridor which
leads to the apartment of the Prince. lie was standing there with a
tition in his hand, when one of Don Miguel's valets came up, and la.'.
how he got himself introduced into that place.? the stranger instaiitly
replied, that he was conducted there by one of the Chamberlains._
The valet was not satisfied with this reply, and having procured Ile
assistance of two of the household, he secured the suspicious r( 7.
sonage, and commenced searching him ; and, to their surprise, fin.:
a naked poignard in the left sleeve of his coat. This man tea.
closely confined in one of the rooms of the Palace, but has r.ot ss yt.,
made any reply to the different interrogatories exhibited to hint by
°Seers of Don Miguel. We have strong reason to believe that tit, ur.
fortunate prisoner will be assassinated in the Palace, unless he maac.
some important disclosures. The Government is taking the
precautions to hide this affair, fearing it may appear that Don 31101,11
not a favourite with every body.
The last Portuguese ship of war, which was one of those engaged
the blockade of the island of Terceira, has just entered our Port (I.t-.
bon); but the English frigates are still cruising near Angra, a eirct.n..
stance which makes foreign ships keep at a distance, supposing
they are some of the blockading vessels.
