STOCKHOLM, Suva's= tit.

It is now known that the wife of Captain V. Rei-
chenbach, owner of the estate of Sagtorp, gave or-
ders during his absence to burn the bush wood on the
estate, for the purpose of obtaining land for corn,
and the operation having been carelessly performed)
caused the great tires in the woods in our neighbour-
hood, which even threatened the capital itself. Lieu•
tenant Von Pettersens, proprietor of Estavih. has
brought an action against Captain V. Reichenbach and
his wife, and they have been condemned to pay 31,290
rix dollars banco damages, and also to make good to
the treasury the expense of sending and maintaining
troops to extinguish the fire: all their property is se-
questrated by way of security for the payment.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambride have returned from Berlin,

COPENHAGEN, SIITIUSIR 26.

As a proof of the extent to which the trade in bones is carried on
in Denmark, it is stated by one of our Journals that Mr. Bern, a
merchant at Corsoer, had in the years 1824, 1825, and 1826, sent
away SO cargoes. It is Armed that this trade in bones annually
into the kingdom, is from 150,000 to 200,000 rix dollars.

We have also received Papers to the 7th
inst. from which we quote the following :

HAARLEM. (krona 6.

Accounts from Batavia of 19th June, announce that
a detachment of the Netherland troops, commanded by,
Colonel Cochins, had proceeded by Djocjocarta to the
Kraton Pleret, in which the insurgents had fortified
themselves, and where, on a former occasion, it had not
been thought advisable to attack them. It was, how-
ever, taken on the 9th of 'June. Thh Netherland troops
consisted of two columns of infantry, under Major
Elout and La Bron, a division of cavalry, one of artil-
lery, a reserve under Captain Koelman, and about 3,000
natives from the surrounding Dessas. All the approiches
to the Kraton having been occupied, an attempt was
made to blow up the walls, which having succeeded,
the scaling ladders were employed; and, after a long en-
gagement, our troops made themselves Masters of the
tort. Our loss consisted of eight killed, among whom
was Lieutenant Krustenburg, and forty-six wounded.
The loss of the enemy was not less than 400 killed, a
number of wounded, 40 prisoners, several standards,
and some cannon. Both the Netherland and Javanese
troops deserve the greatest praise for their behaviour
on the occasion.

Accounts from Groningen, of the 2d October, say,
that though the number of deaths have decteased, that
of the sick continues to increase. In Friesland the dis-
order was still unabated. In the Lemmer, &c. not one
houNe was free. It is calculated that ten times as many
persbns die as in ordinary times.

We have received Quebec Papers to the 4th Setember,
from which we make the following extracts :

" The present depressed and lamentable condition of the Irish
poor in this city, is deserving of our most serious consideration ; the
evil instead of diminishing is rapidly increasing; and which, if suf.
tired to extend beyond certain limits, the consequence may prove too
fatal. Almost every vessel arriving in our port from Ireland, lands
an impoverished and starving population, the necessary consequence
is, that they wander about our wens miserable spectacles of dis-
ease, misery, and want. Those whose means are adequate to the
expense, proceed to the United States, leaving their less fortunate
compinions to shift for themselves."

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

Consols have remained steady the whole of the morning, with a
fluctuation of about i per Cent. and the speculations have not been
of any importance. Consols, which were in the early part of the
day at 8011 for the Account, have since been done at 8011 to and
for November Account at 801 buyers. The Minister of Marine in
the Netherlands has given notice, that from the Ist January, 1827,
the Port of Curacna will be opened to Merchant ships of all na-
tions, and that no export or import duties will be taken on merchan-
dize, or tonnage demanded.

In the foreign market the chief doing was In Mytican Bonds.—
In all other foreign Securities and Shares nothing transacting.

The account of the Thelluson property, which has
been copied from a Worcester journal into several of
the London papers, is extremely incorrect. The fact is,
that Mr. Thelluson, who died in 1797, left his property
to accumulate till such time as all the males of his fa-
mily, who were living at the time of his death, or should
be born within due time afterwards, should be dead;
and that it was then to be divided into three equal
parts, to be shared between the three eldest male lineal
descendants of each of his three sons, Peter, George,
and Charles. George, the second son, died without
,male issue ; and it was decided in the House of Lords,
in the year 1824, that a person cannot have a male
lineal descendant through a female. Consequently this
vast property remains to be divided between the eldest
son of Loid Rendlesham, and the eldest son of Mr.
Charles Thelluson (who is now residing at Brighton),
in case they should survive Lord Rendlesham, Mr.
Charles Thelluson, and William and Frederick, brothers
of Lord Rendlesham, twins, born within nine months
after the death of the testator. Mr. Arthur Thelluson,
whose lady, a daughter of Sir Bethel Codrington, was
lately confined, is the youngest son of the late Lord
Rendlesham, and mi;ht inherit himself, if his three
brothers should die without sons.
A person who keeps a small shop near the vicarage,

the Sunday, to a child a year or two old I.
