According to private accounts from Constantinople
the overthrow of Izzet Mehemet, the Grand Vizier
had caused great satisfaction to the whole of the diplo-
matic body, who saw in him the promoter of the
fanatical policy that prevailed of late in the councils
of the Sultan, to the detriment of the empire.
Advices from Vienna of the 12th announce the
complete success of the Servian revolution. Prince
Michael had been abandoned by the entire of his
troops, and, not considering himself in safety at Bel-
grade, had repaired to Semlin, and invoked the pro-
tection and aid of Austria. Consuls of Great
Britain and France had accompanied the young Prince
in his flight.
The Frankfort Journal announces, that on the 16th
inst. the high Germanic Diet had adjourned until the
14th of January, 1843.
Baron Von .Humboldt, Privy Councillor to the
King of Prussia, was expected in Paris.
On the sth inst. the town of Pisa was thrown into
general consternation by the following dreadful acci-
dent :—While upwards of 200 persons were assem-
bled at an amphitheatre, near one of the gates of the
town, engaged in, and spectators of, the game of ball,
a wall suddenly sunk under them, brought down other
parts of the building, and buried them in its ruins.
Immediate exertions were made, and the dead body
of a child was first taken out. Fifty-six persons were
found severely injured, the lives of several being des-
paired of. The rest escaped, some with slight bruises,
the others unhurt. Many of the sufferers belong to
the first families in Pisa.

The funeral obsequies of M. Baillot, the violinist,
took place on Saturday morning at the church of
Notre Dame de Lorette. A great number of musi-
cal and literary men were present. The body was
afterwards interred in the cemetery of Montmartre.
The gum trade is made matter of consideration in
some of the French papers ; on all hands it is ad-
mitted to be expiring, and the colony of Senegal in-
debted little short of a million sterling. This, it is
asserted, is the trade which England is accused of
seeking to disturb by the right yf search.

On -Saturday, as ;:), party of five or six persons were
ascending the staircase of column of July, on the
Place de la Bastille, for the purpose of viewing Paris
from the top, they were followed by a young nian,
apparently little more than 22 years of age. He re-
mained on the platform after they had quitted, and in
a few moments got over the balustrade, and threw
himself off. When picked up he was quite
dead. His head was dreadfully fractured, and
all his limbs were broken. There was no paper about
him to indicate who he was, but it was evident that
want had not driven him to the act, as he had a watch
and several pieces of coin in his pockets.
"A further emission of a considerable quantity of
forged coupons of Dutch Stock," says a letter from
the Hague, Sept. 13, " has caused much uneasiness in
this country. Almost all payments are made amongst
us, not in specie, as in other countries, but in bank
notes, bills, and coupons. An emission of forged
paper is, therefore, a more serious matter here than
elsewhere. These coupons are so well counterfeited,
that it would be impossible to distinguish them from
the real coupons, were it not that the latter have cer-
tain watermarks which are not found in the forged
documents."

A Hanoverian letter, of the 13th inst., published by
the Journal de Frankfort, contradicts in the most po-
sitive manner the rumour that two of the brothers of
the King had protested against the arrangement for
the signature of the Hereditary Prince, in the event
of his succeeding to the Throne.
Letters from Stutgard assert the Congress of the
Zollverein has determined on not raising the duties on
iron at least. The most clamorous demands for pro-
hibition and high duty were raised' by the cotton-
spinners, woollen-manufacturers, and iron-founders.
Letters mention that the Congress have resisted these
demands, on the interest of the manufacturers them-
selves.
MONEY-TRADE-CO AMERCE.
About 2,5001. has been realised on the occasion of
the Preston Guild, which, after payment of all ex-
penses, leaves a surplus of 3001. to be devoted to the
charities of the town.
