standing the promises made by the Grand Duke of Tus-
cany, the King of Prussia has instructed M. Usedom, his
ambassador at Rome, to repair to Florence and renew his
representation to the Grand Duke.
-

A FRENCH COLONY.—The country of Sonora, recently
declared independent of Mexico, and annexed to the
French Empire, consists of 20,000 square leagues of rich,
fertile, and golden soil, with a sea coast on the gulf of
California. Great excitement still prevails on the subject
of the French acquisitions in this part of the world.
WRECK.—A Spanish brig, the Sangines, from Ham-
burgh for Liverpool, with corn, was, few days ago, driven
in a violent tempest on the sand banks near the roadstead
of Dunkirk, and completely wrecked. The captain and
five men were picked up on spars by fishing-boats. Five
other men, who took to boats, have not been heard of. 1,4

YANKEE HERALDRY.—The committee in Boston who
are building a carriage for .General Pierce recently wrote
to ascertain his coat of arms, with a view of painting the
same on the panels. The reply of the General was—" The
only coat of arms I ever knew my family to possess was
my father's:shirt sleeves when he fought at Bunker's
Hill."

AT MARSEILLES, a scene of an Oriental character
occurred at the Hotel des Empereurs, while Abd-el-Kader
was staying there. One of his wives, unable to repress a
feeling of curiosity, came to the window to gaze at the
crowd in front. This infraction of the laws of the seraglio
was punished by banishment from her lord's, presence.
She was at once sent to Algeria.
PRICE OF A LOST TRUNK.—M. Aaron, a flannel manu-
facturer, of Metz, on Thursday brought an action against
the Strasburg Railway Company to recover 10,000 f. for
the loss of his trunk, on the ground that it contained pat-
terns of flannels and other things, the want of which
prevented him from receiving some important orders.
The tribunal awarded 600 f. damages.
FALL OF A SUSPENSION BRIDGE.—A few days since,
the suspension bridge on the Tech-au-Baulon, Pyrenees
Orientales, gave way while a waggon drawn by five horses,
and laden with 3,000 kilogrammes of iron ore, was passing
over it. The three fore horses remained on the part left
standing, but the two others, the driver, and the waggon,
fell into the river. They were, however, soon got out
without injury.

ROBBER SHOT AT THE DIGGINGS.—A butcher, named
Duffy, residing at Fryer's Creek, was shot on Sunday
morning, while robbing a tent. Duffy entered the tent of
a party of diggers, and demanded their gold ; one of the
diggers jumped out of bed with the intention of securing
him, but, a scuffle ensuing, and the digger being over-
matched, he called out to one of his mates to fire his
revolver and shoot Duffy. The party applied to fired as
requested, and the contents lodged in Duffy's neck under
the jaw, and a slug or two in his right shoulder. He died
in a few hours. It is reported that Duffy was a man of
good means, being the proprietor of two or three butcher's
shops in the diggings.—Melbourne Argus, September 28.
A HEARTLESS SWINDLER.—Nyoung femme de chambre
named Bulot, appeared on Thursday before the Tribunal of
Correctional Police, Paris, to complain of a young man
named Legagneux, forhaving swindled her. She advertised
for a place, and, as a proof her respectability, made known
that she was possessed of 1,600 f. in Four-and-a-Half per
Cent. Stock, of 810 f. in :the savings bank, and 1,009 f. in
cash. Legagneux went to her, and, representing himself
as a physician, proposed to her to be his housekeeper, at
employed emand
the
business,
a liberal salary. She consented, and at his rcquest
yeess
advanced him I,ooof. He made love to her, and promised
her marriage. He thereby persuaded her to ll her stock,
and on different pretexts, got the whole of it, from her,

swindling, and was now sentenced to two years' imprison-
ment.

THE DRAMA AT BRESLAU.—The manager of the
theatre at Breslau is giving frequent representations of a
drama called " Luther ;" and the peasants from Protes-
tant villages come in large parties to demonstrate, by their
applause, their resentment at the Jesuit missions. They
sometimes drive up in a procession of upwards of a hun-
dred carts, and take the whole pit to themselves. On a
late occasion they filled the whole tier of dress boxes, in
their frieze coats and broad brimmed hats.

INFAMOUS DECEPTION.—Mr. Featherstone, British
Consul at Havre, has sent home three English girls from
France, decoyed away from Leeds, without the consent of
their parents, about the 24th of November last, partly
under promises of high wages and excellent treatment, by
two agents of the La Foudre Flax Mill, near Roueri :
" They have been," he says, "altogether deceived and ill-
treated, and the case being a very grave one, comprehend-
ing thirty-seven girls in all, of which number several are
now on their way to this place, I shall send copies of the
affidavits to Her Majesty's government and the Mayor of
Leeds, and endeavour to put a stop to so infamous a
practice. The names of the agents are Smith and Garth-
waite, and I hope to be able to have them punished."
CHARGE OF MURDER IN PARIS.—The trial of Mr.
Bower, for the tragical affair that took place last October
in the Rue de Seze, opened on Tuesday, in the Assize-
court of Paris. The examination of Mr. Bower, com-
menced at about ten o'clock, and lasted fully two hours.
His demeanour was generally collected, but when the in-
te rroNtoire reached that part where the terrible scene of
the declaration of Mrs. Bower during her delirium, and
the fatal blow which deprived Mr. Morton of life, had to
be alluded to, Mr. Bower manifested considerable emotion.
Several witnesses were examined at length. At half-past
three, the medical and other evidence for the prosecution
was brought to a close. The counsel for the prosecution
then addressed the court. The witnesses for the defence
were afterwards called, and then the celebrated advocate
M. Chaix d'Est-Ange addressed the jury on behalf of the
prisoner. The result was a verdict of acquittal.
LOUIS NAPOLEON'S MARRIAGE.—The reported nego-
ciations of the Emperor for the hand of the widow of the
Duke de Leuchtenberg are contradicted, and a Spanish
beauty—Senora M.—is now the reigning favourite and
possible Empress. The English lady, whose return to
Paris lately excited some surprise, has, it is said, left
again for England, and there is a talk of her being on the
point of marriage with one of the aides.de-camp of the
Emperor. The Times states that the Grand Duchess
Stephanie, of Baden, is the acting friend of the Imperial
Ccelebs, and is now engaged with Prince Murat in solicit-
ing the hand of the young Stephanie Frederica Wilhel-
mine Antoinette, now in her sixteenth year, and second
child of the Prince of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, one of
the mediatised Princes of Germany, and whose abdication
in favour of the King of Prussia, exactly three years ago,
has been rewarded with the title of highness, and the rank
of a younger prince of the royal house.

NARROW ESCAPE.—The widow of an officer, killed in
Africa, who had been for some time endeavouring to earn
a scanty subsistence by needlework, left her lodging in the
Rue de la Harpe, Paris, on Tuesday, and proceeding to
the Pont St. Michel, climbed on the parapet and threw
herself into the river. The Seine was much swollen at the
time from the late rains, and the death of the woman
appeared certain, when a soldier of the 71st regiment
coming up threw off his coat and jumped himself into the
river. Being a good swimmer, he soon seized the woman,
but his foot caught her dress, and he was unable to ex-
tricate himself. It was then evident that he would not be
able to bring her to land, and both would have perished
had not a man belonging to the Morgue, swam out and
seized them both. He succeeded in getting them to the
bank, but the effort required to save the two persons
together was nearly proving too much for him, and he was
glad to receive assistance as he touched the land from s re-
publican guard, who helped him to get the other two out
of the water. The men soon recovered, but the woman
was long insensible, and afterwards was so much exhausted
that it was deemed advisable to have her placed in an
establishment for the insane.

MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT—DEATH OF MR. HEALD,
LOLA MONTES' HUSBAND.--A letter dated " Lisbon,
Dec. 20," says :—" Mr. Heald (Lola Montes's husband)
went out in one of the vessels of the Royal Yacht Club,
having in his company a beautiful young lady. The yacht
foundered in sight of her Majesty's steamer Inflexible,
which instantly manned a boat with fourteen hands to
rescue them ; not only were they unsuccessful, but the
fourteen hands were also drowned."—The Morning
Herald of Saturday says :—There is too much reason to
believe that Mr. Heald, with a female friend and two
ladies, went down off Fort St. Julian, at the mouth of the
Tagus in his yacht, the Sparrowhawk, on Friday the 17th
ult. ; but we are happy to find that the Inflexible lost no
hands on the occasion, she not having ever seen the yacht
after it had passed the bar of Pasadarcos Bay."—ln refe-
rence to the above melancholy event, a contemporary has
been favoured with the following particulars, by a gentle-
man who was staying at the same hotel with Mr. Heald,
and only left Lisbon a few days before the accident :
" Mr. Heald was not married to the lady who has met
with such a sad fate ; he had, however, settled £3OO per
year upon her, besides many handsome presents ; amongst
others, he bmight her the other day, in Lisbon, a bracelet,
for which he gave 280 guineas. Her name was Julia
son, well known in London as one of the most beautiful
women there. She was a most inveterate smoker, and a
few days before I left Lisbon, was in prison nearly the
whole of one night for getting up a row in a public
billiard-room, where she had gone incognito, dressed as
a midshipman. Their rooms at the hotel were the retort
every night of some leading Portuguese and French young
gentlemen, with officers from the fleet, and the scenes of
gaiety were generally kept up until three or four o'clock
in the morning. It was reported in Lisbon that Miss
Wilson was about to have her passport sent to her, in
consequence of some improper conduct at the opera.
Mr.Heald was in a most dangerous state of health, in fact,
used up, and could not have lived long. He was about
leaving in his yacht for Madeira."

has been taken up with spirit and earnestness by the
citizens of Armagh. The meeting on Tuesday was large
and influential, and shares to the amount of £5,000
were subscribed for.

SANGUINARY AFFRAY.—A sanguinary affray took
place on Christmas-day, at Castledawson, Derry. It is
customary with the young men of that district to have fir-
ing matches on that sacred anniversary. Accordingly, a
party, consisting of Protestants and Romanists, assembled
early in the afternoon, and fired at a mark for some time
with perfect good humour. Whisky, unhappily, formed a
material item in their refreshment, and as evening ar
proached, many were obviously under its influence. A
dispute arose, hard words came to blows, and from these
to a regular pitched battle. The disputants were joined by
their immediate friends, and volley after volley was
speedily interchanged before the weaker gave way and fled.
The result was that five persons received dangerous gun•
shot wounds. Several of the rioters have been arrested.
