LEIPSIC, APRIL cl.

Qur fair has began, but in a very unpromi,in7
manner. We see hardly any Poles or au,si.ins, ati
very few Greeks.

Our accounts from Russia and Poland s:.iii tend to
war. • The Emperor Alexander is expected soot to
set out from St. Petersburgh for the Army; and it ii
reported that the• army of another Power will he put
in motion, the Guards of which are stated to have
already received orders to tha effect. Peace with i‘e
Turks would be worse than wal ; their hatred to the
Christians makes them violate all treaties, and Such
is the anarchy that prevails in Turkey, that
obeys unless he is compelled.

MENTZ, APRIL 85 .

A counterpart to the story of Mr. Inveday is related by our
Gazette. At Irelich, a Catholic village near Neuweid, a citizen
took under his protection an orphan girl, and received iron! ti.e
Authorities a legal instrument, recognizing him to be the taiiie:
by adoption. The child was of Protestant parents, but kyr
adopted father being a Catholic, brought her up in that religion.
A few days ago he sent the child to Neuweid, to purchase some-
thing; she did not return ; and the father, who is much attache!
to the girl, now eleven years of age, discovered that she wai
with a Protestant Clergyman, who refused to deliver ht,t ur ;
saying, that as her parents had been Protestants, she shwa be
educated in their religion. The foster-father has brought the
affair before the competent tribunal, whose decision is inipa-
tiently expected.

The KING'S Cottage in Windsor Great Palk is now
finished, and with all its improvements ready to r.:-
Feive his MAJESTY and a most extensive suite of
visitors, during the race week on Ascot-heath. The
range of apartments newly built, and which were in-
tended for Sir BENJAMIN BLOOMFIELD, have been
assigned to the Lord High Steward and his large fa-
mily. The Serpentine walk, commencing with the
Conservatory, is completely covered in, and adorned
with creeping plants, shrubs, and flowers, so as to-
tally to exclude from the prying eye of curiosity, tho:e
who may wish to enjoy the privilege of seclusion.
