LEEDS, JULY °6.

The Workhouse Committee had two meetings last
week on the subject of the Poor, and have di..cussed
the grounds of the Report they are to make. Mr.
Owss has written an answer to their comniunication,
in which he " begs leave to state generally that the
distress which pervades the poor and working classes•
may be permanently removed by employment on the
soil, and that styli occupation may be so arranged
for them, that it shall not be prejudicial to any class
'in society. " Mr. OWEN very politely offers every
facility and information in his power, and for this'
:purpose intends visiting Leeds; but we are given to
understar.d that as far as his Plan has yet been de-
7.veloped, the Committee are not much disposed to
follow it. In the mean time we are concerned to
learn from indubitable authority, that pauperism,
from want of employment, continues on the increase.

We have received, today, Bombay Papers to the
24th of February.

Letters from Husseinabai state, that large bodies
of men were reported to be about entering the Bei-
tool-valley. By one account they are stated at twelve
thousand men, but it was thought that the defeat of
their brethren in arms at Chouragur and Futtelipoor,
would deter them from carrying their plans into
operation..
Another account states, that Lieutenant JOUNSON
was taken prisoner by the enemy, who spared his life
on condition of his conveying a letter to the Subidar
in command of the fort. The purport of this com-
munication was, that if the Subidar would give up
the fort, he should receive a reward of thirty rupees
per diem, and the sepoys also should be remunerated
on taking the oath of allegiance to AIPAH SAHIB.—
The Subidar received the letter with contempt, moun-
ted the guns, and kept up a brisk fire on the enemy,
who perceiving it out of their power to take the fort,
proceeded to attack a Havildar and 12 sepoys, sta-
tioned in the village.. Lieutenant BRANDON entered
the fort on the morning : it was found it had been
three times attacked during the night, and the enemy
had tried every means to bribe the garrison. Capt.
ROLERTS was slightly wounded in the affair near
• Futtehpoor.

The Park Papers of Saturday arrived this forenoon.
The only domestic intelligence, of any interest,
which they contain, is an account of the first day's
proceedings in the trial of the noted General Sarazin
for Bigamy, or rather Trigamy. The General de-
fends his own cause, bumot apparently in the hap-
piest manner. \Then interrogated respecting his in-
termarriage with Miss Georgiana Hutchinson, in.
England, he was pleased to express his sorrow that
he had not put a tope round her neck and sold her at
Smithfield ! A general movement of indignation was
evinced by the assembly at this atrocious avowal, and
the President aptly observed—" It is with too much
reason, Sir, that your first wife, in one of her letters,
produced in process, observes, that the Sun of St. Do-
mingo, seems to have turned your brain."

A letter from Frankfort states, that a very extra-
ordinary story is current in that city, of the King of
Wirtemberg, who is at present at Schwalbad, having
been attacked in his apartments by four men in
masks, who did not, however, offer any violence to
his Majesty, but con/anted themselves with saving to
him, in a menacing tone—" Learn to govern in fu-
ture with justice and good faith, otherwise thou shalt
fall a victim to the cause of the People!" No farther
particulars of this attempt had transpired, but the re-
port of it had produced the greatest possible sensation.

In the mean while the States General of Willem-
berg had at their second sitting voted an address of
thanks to the KING. "We felicitate your Majesty,',
they say, " on having taken the resolution to give
to the Constitutional Act the character of a flee con-
tract between the King and the people. We are the
representatives of the rights of the nation, but we are
also the representatives of its love for)our Majesty."
Letters from Jassy (in Moldavia) make mention of
a vioient insurrection which broke out on the reOtli of

Jane, against the notpodar, and ttLich was ci
put &own by force. Blood had becn ()a
