STATE OF THE PROVINCES

The state of some of the departments is by no means
satisfactory. Besides the departments already under
martial law before the coup d'etat, which were the
Ardeche, the Cher, the Nievre, and the Rhone, the state
of siege has now been proclaimed in the departments of
the Seine, Basses-Alpes, Allier, Saone-et-Loire, Herault,
and, Var. Lot, and Lot-et-Garonne, in the city of Stras-
burg, and probably in many other places nut as yet known.
At Valence, on the Rhone, the military authorities
prevailed after a short struggle, though the insurrection
had made head at Crest, in Dauphiny. At Nimes, where
political contests have frequently been aggravated by
religious animosity, the National Guard was called out,
and, as the severest precautions were taken, order was
veserved. But in the extreme south-eastern department
of the Var the resistance was so violent that it appears for
the time to have overpowered the authorities of Louis
Napoleon. and large forces were marching from Toulon to
reduce the district. Draguignan and the frontier were
wholly in the possession of the Socialist bands, and no
communications could be forwarded without their per-
mission. The adjoining department of the Basses-Alpes
is also in flagrant and successful insurrection. The towns
of Digue and Sisteron are occupied by bands amounting
to some thousand men, and these are doubtless in com-
munication with the French refugees in Switzerland and
Savoy. Proceeding to the west, along the Mediterranean
coast, no place seems to have witnessed more horrible
attrocities than Bezieres, in the department of the
Herault, and Bedarieux, in its immediate neighbourhood.
The Red Republican party appeared there in all their
fury ; inoffensive citizens were massacred, and it was ❑ot
till a severe engagement had taken place that the town
was rescued. At Comden (Gera) the insurgents got
possession of the town altogether; for, when an appeal
was made to the principal inhabitants to support the
government, only twenty could be found to obey the call—
a circumstance which leads to the idea that this resistance
is not everywhere of an exclusively Socialist character, as
the journals of the Elysee would have the public believe.
In no place has any enthusiasm been expressed for Louis
Napoleon. _ _

ALLEGED MURDER IN MANCHESTER.

Patrick Goulden, a labourer, aged 28, was charged with
the murder of John Owens, at Manchester, on the 10th
October last.

Mr. Wheeler was for the prosecution, and Mr. Monk
for the prioner.
The evidence went to prove that, about twelve o'clock
on the night in question, deceased and the prisoner's
wife, who was the daughter of his wife by a former hus-
band, were standing in Cable-street. opposite Mahon's
vaults, Manch.ster ; they were engaged in an angry dis-
pute about family matters, and, while so engaged, the
prisoner, who lives in the house next to Mahon's vaults,
was seen standing at a short distance, as if in the act of
listening. During the dispute, deceased was heard to
say something about her husband, and the female then
said she was keeping him (deceased) in suspense until her
husband came. The prisoner came up almost imme-
diately, when deceased, accosting him, said, " Your mis-
tress says you are able to fight me, and I will fight you in
the morning." The prisoner replied, " I can fight you
at any time." He was then seen to draw from behind his
person something which glittered, with which he struck
the deceased on the eye ; the latter staggered and fell ;
be was carried to the infirmary, where he ultimately died,
never having uttered a word after receiving the blow.
The prisoner and his wife then went into their own house,
and closed the door. A policeman demanded admittance,
but was refused, and, when ultimately he forced an en-
trance, he found, on a stool in the house, two shoemakers'
knives. Both deceased and the prisoner were shoemakers.
Mr. MONK, in his address to the jury. chiefly endea-
voured to reduce the crime to manslaughter. The jury,
after an absence of nearly four hours, entered the court
at a quarter before five o'clock. Their verdict acquitted
the prisoner of the capital charge. and found him guilty
of manslaughter. Sentence—To be transported for the
period of his natural life.

FURNITURE.

Rom the great deception practised
F
in the Cabinet Trade by parties keeping
Furniture Shops stocked with London Goods,
which are represented as being their own make,
we feel bound, for the protection of the Public

Makers ; and that the Furniture in our Ware-
rooms, Nos. 45 and 47, BOLD-STAEET, is
made from a Stock of well-sea Wood, un-
der the immediate inspec ' of T. HUGHES,
at our Workshops , Seel-street, and 48,

purchasers will find we supply a good article
at a low price, which alone constitutes real
cheapness.

SONG FOR CHRISTMAS

CHORUS.
Let hearts be light,
Let eyes be bright,
To welcome in December;
For Christmas is a holiday,
And Christmas is a jolly day,
Which all should thus remember,

Well may the poets sing
This time of festive '
For happy Christmas es to bring
A feast for all t earth.
Its origin w ace
To many istant age;
And Chris as finds an early place
On tory's teeming page.
old baronial halls
Its glories have been sung,
While round the lofty roof and walls
The holly boughs have hung.

CHORUS.
Let hearts be light,
And eyes be bright,
To welcome in December;
For Christmas is a holiday,
And Christmas is a jolly day,
Which all should thus remember

To peasant and to prince
This festal time belongs;
And young and old their joys evince
With glad convivial songs.
It speaks of parted friends,
Restored to friendship's bond ;
And all will own that Christmas tends
To gender feelings fond.
The social circles now
Are happily reform'd,
While friendship re-asserts its vow,
And hearts are newly warm'd.

CHORUS.
Let hearts be light,
And eyes be bright,
To welcome in December;
For Christmas is a holiday.
And Christmas is a jolly day,
Which all should thus remember

At such a time as this,
Let every one assume
Some out-ward token of his bliss,
In shape of new costume.
At HYAM'S far-famed Mart
Prime Christmas suits are sold;
Which all acknowledge truly smart,
The instant they behold.
In all the winter styles,
B. HYAM'S clothes excel,
And HYAM'S suits for juveniles
Please equally as well.

CHORUS.
Let hearts be light,
Let eyes be bright,
To welcome in December;
For Christmas is a holiday,
And Christmas is a jolly day,
Which all should thus remember,

PERJURY

John Lee was accused of wilful and corrupt perjury.
Mr. Monk prosecuted. In a cause tried at the last autumn
assizes, Hayes v. Williams, the plaintiff succeeded in
proving an exception from certain liabilities, unier the
statute of limitations, on the evidence of Lee. On that
occasion Lee was asked if he had ever been accused of
stealing ; or if he had ever been summoned, or had ever
been tried at Preston sessions. To the questions he had
replied in the negative ; and it is alleged he had answered
falsely, he having been both tried and convicted at Preston.
The jury found him guilty.

ASSAULT,

Peter Ashworth, aged 28, was indicted for feloniously
cutting and wounding Samuel Mather, at Bolton, with
intent to do him some grievous bodily harm. Mr. Milne
prosecuted ; Mr. Monk appeared for the prisoner. The
jury returned a verdict of guilty on one count of the indict-
ment only. Sentence, one month's imprisonment.

•
• THE BRICKMAKERS' RIOT.
Thomas Millington, William Murray, John Murray,
and Samuel Harrison, journeymen brickmakers, were
indicted for unlawfully and riotously assembling with
others at Droylsden, and beating and wounding one John
Carr. and for having, at the same place, unlawfully con-
spired to prevent the said John Carr from following his
lawful employment.—Mr. Monk prosecuted, and Mr.
Wheeler appeared for the prisoners. The case was post-
poned from the last assizes, since which time the prisoners
have been out on bail. The circumstances are already
sufficiently known. The learned judge said the case was
one of a very serious nature, and presented a state of
things which ought not to be allowed to exist in a free
country. He considered it high time to put a stop to
such proceedings on the part of workmen. Sentence—
two months' imprisonment, and recognizances in £2O to
keep the peace for one year.—The court then adjourned.

SUNDAY.

A decree definitively constitutes the new consultative
commission. It is composed of 78 names; amongst them
are those of Count D'Argout, Governor of the Bank of
France; Baroche and F. Barrot, former ministers; Barthe,
Minister of Justice under Louis Philip; e and now Presi-
dent of the Cour des Comptes ; Do Beaumont (Somme)
Billault, Carlier, ex prefect of police; Chaix D'Estange,
Drouyn de Lhuys, Dumas, and Lacrosse, former minis-
ters ; De Montalembert, De Mortemart, Da Mouchy,
Noailles, Odier, ex peer of France and controller of the
Bank ; De Purieu, Rouher, and Schneider, former minis-
ters ; De Segur, D'Aguesseau, Seydoux, De Thorigny,
late minister ; Troplong, First President of the Court of
Appeal ; Vaisse, former minister; De Wagram, Generals
Baraquay D'Hilliers, Preval, De Castallane, Marshal Ex-
celmans, Generals De Grammont, De Grouchy, D'Haut-
poul, De la Hitte, Magnan, Admiral Cecille, &c.
The Commission begins to meet on the 23rd to count
the votes for the election of the President in pursuance of
the decree of the 2nd instant. The Secretaries-General
of the late Council of State and National Assembly are
appointed to the same office in the present commission.

A decree declares the cessation of the extraordinary
missions confided to M. Duval in the eight departments
of Brittany and Vendee ; and to M. Carlier in the three
departments of the Centre ; and to M. Berrard in the
Somme.

News from the departments is reassuring, excepting the
Basses Alpes, where, however, the chief towns, Diane
and Sisterton, have been recaptured by the troops.

Nettement has been set at liberty

MM. Creton and Duvergier de Hauranne are still at
Vincennes.

M. Thiers arrived at Mayence on the 10th

e-sheet ?"

Within the last day or two, this desired document has
come to light. And. strange to say, Mr. Alechi is forced

,11 his science

and after all the adventi-

tious aids which he has been able to give,—that the farm
has yielded him, in the last twelvemonth—a loss of rather
more than six hundred pounds!

This is decisive. It' settles, pretty conclusively, the
question of high-farming. It shows that fancy-expendi-
ture on a farm, like fancy-expenditure on a pig, or a race-
horse, may be a fair way of employing a man's surplus
wealth ; but that, regarded as a matter of business, it will
not pay.—Morning Herald.

LIVERPOOL WINTER ASSIZE.
CROWN COURT.—TUESDAY.
_ (Before Mr. Baron PARKE)

As soon as the learned judge took his seat, John M.
Guinness, convicted on the preceding day of wounding
Thomas Titterington with a hammer at Chorley, was
placed at the bar and sentenced to seven months' impri-
sonment in Kirkdale gaol.
William Hutchinson, who pleaded guilty to a burglary
in Manchester, was sentenced to one year's imprisonment
and hard labour.

JANSLAUGHTER AT MANCHESTER

Thomas Gleeson, 26, was charged with killing Joseph
Younghusband on the 20th of September. It appeared
that a dispute arose between the prisoner and the
deceased at a beer-house in Stratford-road, Manchester,
about a bet, and they went out to fight. He afterwards
threw a stone at the deceased. He ran away, and a crowd
followed him to a butcher's shop in Clarendon-street,
where he took refuge. The people rushed into the shop,
and a man named Cain, a witness in the case, kicked the
prisoner, who was thrown to the floor, and whilst lying
with his head against the chopping block, the deceased
seized him by the hair of the head ; a blow was then
given by the prisoner with a knife ; the deceased fell, and
expired almost immediately. The jury found the prisoner
guilty of manslaughter, but under extenuating circum-
stances, and recommended him to mercy.

CHILD KILLED AT MANCHESTER.
George Allcock, 23, was acquitted of an indictment of
killing Louisa Teel, a little girl, at Manchester, on the
10th October last. Allcock, with some other young men,
was firing a small cannon, on the occasion of the Queen's
visit to Manchester, and the wadding striking the girl,
who was on the opposite side of the street, in the face,

penetrated through her right eye to the brain, and caused
her death. His lordship said that the unfortunate oc-
currence seemed to have been the result of accident more
than anything else.

JOBBERY AT MANCHESTER,

Thomas Kelly, 25, Jane Jones, 19, indicted, with other
Persons unknown, for having assaulted and robbed Simon
Davies, at Manchester, on the 15th October, were found
guilty, and Kelly, who had been before transported, sen-
tenced to fifteen years, and Jones to seven years' trans.
portation.

TO THE PUBLIC.

THE ADVERTISE-
MENT published by
Mr. MILNER, headed
MILNER v. HARRI-
SON," relative to a case
recently heard before the
Vice-Chancellor, Sir Geo.
Turner, conveys a very
inaccurate idea of the ge-
neral facts. The injunc-
.. . _

tion asked for wsi's to
_ restrain Mr. Harrison
from selling the Safee•made" under Tann's Patent. This the
Vice-Chancellor not only refused, but expressly stated in his
judgment that Mr. Harrison was at liberty to sell Wes Manu-
factured under Tann's Patent, as he (the Vice-Chancellor)
considered the two Patents quite distinct from each other.
The injunction granted had merely reference to safes made like
the one produced on the • , and this was only to continue
in force until the hearin the bill of exceptions tendered by
Sir Frederick Thesi , the counsel for Mr. Harrison. It will
be seen that the njunction has no reference whatever to
Tann's Paten d that that invention is not at all involved in
the present 1 gal proceedings. Mr. Milner having been unsuc-
cessful in his endeavours to invalidate the patent of Messrs.
Tann, (which he is well aware has recommended itself to a
discerning public as being more economical and in every respect
superior to his own,) hopes, by his recent announcement? to
accomplish his object, by persecuting an individual who is a
rival to him in trade. Mr. Milner asserts further that the
injunction imposes a penalty upon further sales. This state-
ment also conveys a most erroneous impression of the facts.
It will be sufficient to state that no penalty is or can be imposed
on any purchaser of Tann's Patent Safes; and Mr. Harrison
holds himself ready to give an efficient legal guarantee to
indemnify purchasers from any legal liabilities.

SATURDAY

By the decree of the President a credit of 400,000 f. is
accorded for the continuation of the new foreign office.
General Chadeysson having refased to take the command
of the department of the Basses Aloes, is put a la retraite.
Generals D'Hautpool, Baraguay d'Hilliers, and Magnan,
commander in chief of the army of Paris, are each made
grand officers of the legion of honour. The funeral of
the soldiers of the 72nd regiment who fell in the combats
of the 4th took place yesterday, at the cemetery of Mont
Parnasse, in presence of deputations from the regiment.
A letter from Strasbourg of the 11th states that M.
Thiers had reached that city the evening before, accom-
panied by an officer of police, and had left for Germany
the same night. M. Creton and M. Duvergier de Rau-
ranne imprisoned at Vincennes, have been set at liberty.
M. Leon Faucher has written to contradict the rumour of
his having been ordered out of Paris : he has not left, and
does not mean to leave the city. A secret society was
discovered yesterday morning in the Rue Meslay, neigh-
bourhood of the Temple, disguised under the form of a
charitable institution. All the members present were
arrested, and according to the decree of the President of
the Republic they may be transported at once. _

Numerous declarations of adhesion and addresses to
the President of the Republic, thanking him for his
energy on the 2nd instant, were received yesterday.
M. de Montalembert and M. de Falloux have, it ap-
pears, each authoritatively communicated to their friends
that the committee of 12, representing the interests of
the Count de Chambord, had resolved upon recommend-
ing their friends not to vote against the President, or
exhibit for the future anything like systematic hostility.
This is extremely important, as it ensures the adhesion of
La Vendee, and must produce great effect upon the Legi-
timists in the south. The civil tribunals of Versailles
have given in their adhesion. Corsica had, as might
have been expected, received with great enthusiasm
the act of the President.

Insurgency still prevails in many of the provincial

towns

The. commander-in-chief of the army of Paris had
addressed a long report to the Minister of War, giving a
detail of his proceedings during the insurrection.

At Marseilles the insurgents had abandoned all the
high roads and principal towns in the Var, and the mill-

tary are now in possession of them. On Thursday night
and the day previous about 1500 Socialists left the city,
and having recruited on the road, they assembled yester-
day—upwards of 2000, all armed,—close to the aqueduct

of Roquefavior and Aix. The rappel was beaten lest
night at Aix, and the necessary measures taken to pre-
vent a surprise. Were the insurgents of the Var to join
these men, their numbers wonld be formidable.
A slight skirmish took place on Thursday on the
frontiers of the Lower Alps, but without any nenenciai

THE BRAZILS

The Teviot arrived at Southampton on Tuesday. Her
dates are—Buenos Ayres, Nov. 3rd ; Monte Video, 6th ;
Rio de Janeiro, 14th ; Bahia, 18th; Pernambuco, 21st;
Cape of Good Hope, Nov. 4rh.
The news from the River Plate is of a very conflicting
description. The recent news of the defeat of Oribe is
fully confirmed, and there seems to be no doubt but that
it was the intention of Urquiza to cross the river and
enter the province of Buenos Ayres at the head of a con-
siderable army, composed of the allied forces, and which
is stated to amount to upwards of 20,000 men, leaving
6,000 in reserve in the Banda Oriental. All reports
agree in stating that the spirit of disaffection towards
General Rosas was rapidly spreading in the city and pro-
vince of Buenos Ayres. _

At Montevideo all was quiet, and business very active.
The whole of the Brazil coast is perfectly healthy, and
there were no signs of fever either on shore or afloat.
The island of St. Vincent had been visited by fever and
ague, which had attacked almost the whole of the popu-
lation. These complaints did not prove very fatal.
The commercial accounts from Brazil are mostly of a
favourable character. At Rio Janeiro the effect of the
pressure in the New York money market upon the de-
mand for coffee had been counteracted by better advices
from Europe, and a good business had been done at
steady prices. There had been a rise in the quotation
for gold, owing to the demand for the army in the Banda
Oriental ; but the money market was exceedingly easy,
the rate for the best paper being 5 per cent.
At Bahia there was nothing new in business, and the
arrivals of the new sugar crop had, as yet, been very
small.
