Accounts from Switzerland announce the defeat of the free
corps and refugees at Lucerne, and the complete dispersion of
the assailants, who fled to their homes, leaving more than 600
dead and wounded at the gates of that town.
The Piedmontese Gazette contradicts the report that the
Sardinian Government intended directing troops towards the
Swiss front*.
Count de Pontois, the French Ambassador in Switzerland,
took leave of the King of the French on Friday night, pre-
paratory to his return to his post.
The Marquis Ferrieres, who is secretary to the Chinese em-
bassy, was to leave Paris on Monday, for China. He was to
go direct to Macao.

Baron Deffaudis, the French Minister to the Court of Bra-
zil, has left Brest, in the Erigone frigate, fon Ulla country.
The Journal du Havre states that the works of the Rouen
and Havre Railroad are in so forward a state, and are con-
tinued with such activity, that the road will certainly be
open on the Ist of May, 1846. It adds, that the direct trains
from Paris to Havre are to perform the journey in six hours
and a half.
The crime of murder is becoming as frequent in France as
in this country. The Court of Cessation rejected on Thurs-
day the appeals of four individuals capitally convicted
by as many different Courts of Assize—namely,
of Lachanelle, sentenced to death at Lons le Saul-
nier for the murder of a young woman ; of
Coste, convicted in the Ardeche of a similar crime ;
of Ducoudrav, condemned to death in Paris, for attempting
to kill his wife; and of a woman named Leclerc, sentenced at
Amiens for parricide. The appeal of another parricide,
named Lacome, was also under consideration on the same
day, but the Court adjourned without pronouncing upon it.
The Impartial du Nord, of the 3d inst., states that the in-

ceeded to such acts of violence against the labourers employed

that the Procureur du Roi of Valenciennes had been obliged
to repair to the scene of riot with a body of Lancers.

A case of breach of promise of marriage was tried at Glou-
cester, in which the defendant, a farmer, named Stephens,
attempted to cast imputations on the character of the
plaintiff, a Miss Cooke. The evidence for the defence, how-
ever, was so grossly improbable, and so very disgusting,
that the Lord Chief Baron before whom the case was tried,
advised the counsel for the plaintiff not to cross-examine
defendant's witness, and expressed his disgust in strong
terms at the conduct of defendant and his witnesses. The
verdict was for the plaintiff, with 1001. damages.
The case of the Queen V. the Poor-law Guardians of
Rochdale was tried at Liverpool. The action was to try
certain issues raised on a return to a writ of mandamus.
The point to be ascertained was—whether or not the
Guardians had wilfully disobeyed certain orders of the Poor-
law Commissioners; and, if they had, whether they were
not justified in so doing. The verdict was for the Crown,
leave being reserved for the defendants to move the court
above.

James Ha.slam, William Lee, and John Adamson, were
indicted betbre Mr. Justice Coltman, for conspiring to procure
the return of John Slater as town councillor of Bolton, by
fraudu ent means. It appeared that the defendants had
brought in persons from the country to peisonate voters. The
jury brought in a verdict of guilty against all the defendants.
A motion, however, was made in arrest of judgment, and the
defendants were held to bail to appear at the next assizes.
The 138th session of the Central Criminal Court began
yesterday.
