Tolay is the epoch of a great victory ovet the'
hydra of feudal aristocraoy in our new Pometania.
It is well known that the King of Sweden,_ Gustavus
Adolphus the 11Vtlr, bad abolished the vassalage of
the peasants, and effaced every trace of it. After
- the dissolution of thetierman Empire, and the trea-
ties and extension of the altenialt Confederation, thg,
King of Sweden introduced the Swedish Constitution'
kilo Pomerania and Rugen. Thus the peasant, re-
leased from an unjust slavery, became a free Swede,
and a component part of the Rate of the kingdom.

We have received the Paris Papers of Wednesday.
Perhaps not the least interesting pan of their con-
tents is an article from Sardinia, detailing a silents-
ful resistance allele by the Peasantry against an in•
vasion of Banditti friar Algiers at Tneit. The ImmA
hooters were, on this occasion, captured ; and this
is, perhaps, the only ease on record in which the
inhabitants have manfully resisted them. The rea-
son for the tacit manner in which they have suffered
themselves to be kidnapped is obvious : the system
of slavery which prevails on the Moorish coast is en-
forced with tenfold rigour on such as have made any
upon:kir* to their capture.
The example of the Bologna Prophet was followed
by a mad Catholic Priest at Naples ; but the latter
confined his awful visitation to the city of
Naples.; A shower of fire was to tall during four
hours on that devoted city, on the 27th of June, and
all who tscaped were afterwards to be devoured by ter.
pents ! The old women and children of Naples be-
lieved him; but the Police were a little incredulous,
and humanely sent the soothsayer to prison, to save
him, if possible, from sharing in the calamity.
