ther James Lows" underwent another examination before &ism

There is a report that 500 gendarmes are to be added
to the 1500 who now throng the streets of Paris. Befcte
the Revolution the Lieutenant, of Police had a company
of Cavalr y of 111 persons, a company of infantry 87G,

It appears, by an :recount from Madrid; that a Ma-i
dame Miner, a , Portuguese Lady, who had been
banished to Seville, was lately found concealed behind
a curtain in the apartment of the Infant Don CARLOS,
and talon to prison. That Prince is described in the
Royal Almanack for the present year as Generalissimo of

CIsCO DE PAULA as Captain-General of the armies.
The Pilate of F, id. y contains an article from Madrid,
giviog some explansitions of the reports which had been
circulated res;;ecting a rupture between Spain and
England. It is said that the latter Cabinet had claimed
the execution of the decree of the Cortes of MS, rela-
tive to the indemnity due from Spain to the English
merchants, whose property had been seized by pirates
from the Havannali ; that the Spanish Government
persisting in not giving any answer, and the opening of
the Parliament being at hand, Mr. Secretary CANNING
sent instructions to Mr. LAM), our Ambassador at the
Court of Madrid, to require a decision in 24 hours ; and
in case of a refusal, he ordered him to declare that Eng-
land would take possession of the Havannah and of
Porto Rico. Ihe Spanish Minister, it is said, at length
answered, that everything should be settled to Mr.
CANNING'S satisfaction.

NAPOLEON AND HANNIBAL.—In a late number of the
Military Magazine, which is publi-hed at Copenhagen,-
is a parallel between NAPOLEON and HANNIBAL, which
is very ingeniously pursued. Both of these great warriors
says the writer, carried war into the bosom of the
enemy's country ; bo,la passed the Alps; both employed
infantry in masses. NAPOLEON formed a reserve of
veterans; HANNIBAL did the same at Zama. Both
wire skilful in infl tiring the courage of their troops by
harangues ; and both knew well how to meet danger
at the right moment. Both of them rose at an early
age to the highest dignities of the State; both were
about 26 years of age when they began to signalize
themselves in war. Both sought to conquer Italy—
Trebia was for HANNIBAL', what Matengo was for
BONAPARTE; and Austerlitz and Jena were the parallels
of T,asemene and Canna. HANNIBAL sank before
Scipio :—NAPOLEON sank before WELLINGTON. Zama
was Waterloo. To crown all, both died in exile ; one
complained of being tormented by FLANINIOSI and the
other, by Sir HUDSON Lowe.
Doctor Farmer, in preaching, was so loud and hur-
ried in his enunciation, and so violent in his setting off,
as to make nervous people start. As a proof of his
.hurrying manner in the pulpit, he used to relate, that
having been to preach at Huntingdon, en his return,
riding along the bridge, he heard a man say to his com-
panion, " Aye, there he goes ; if he rides as fast as he
preaches, he will soon be at Cambi idge." •
