The Aix-la-Chapelle Gazette relates the following melancholy instance of religious fanaticism. A Protestant inhabitant of that city was married many years ago to a Catholic, by whom he, had two children, who were educated in the Catholic faith. On the death of his wife he married a Protestant, and from that hour endeavoured to convert his children from the Catholic to the Protestant religion, but could not succeed, and at length the relations of his wife insisted on removing the children from his house. A few days since, says this paper, tho father went to the house at which his children were staying, and, after having endeavoured in vain to induce his son to abandon the Catholic faith, he become furious, and hanged him. The boy was soon afterwards discovered and cut down, but in such a state, that little hope was entertained of saving him. The father was arrested, and conveyed to prison. A man named Belin was tried before the Court of Assize at Paris, two days ago, for an assault under the following circumstances. On March 30, a young man knocked at the door of a person named Belin, employed by the Stockbrokers at the Exchange, and finding, or rather knowing beforehand, that he was not at home, gained entrance under pretence of having a message. Getting Mme. Belin into a room by herself, he seized her by the throat, and, drawing a knife threatened with violent imprecations to murder her if she did not give him all her money. She made so stout a resistance that she dragged her assailant to the landing-place and there called for assistance. Upon this the robber attempted to make his escape. but was followed and brought back. To the astonishment of Mme. Belin, who, during the struggle had not recoguised him—he proved to be Paul Belin, a nephew of her husband, scarcely twenty years of age, who had been a long time discarded by his family for misconduct, and only lately released from prison, where he had been confined on a conviction of forgery. The circumstances of the case were proved, and the prisoner acknowled his guilt, but attributed it to the instigation of two malefactors with whom he had made acquaintance in prison, and who, in fad, accompanied him to his uncle's house, when he committed the assault, but effected their escape. Paul Belin was found guilty with extenuating circumstances, and sentenced to hard labour at the hulks for ten years, and to be exposed on the pillory. The upper part of the site of ancient Carthage has receivgd the name of Mount Louis Philippe, since i the done' on made to the King last year by the Bey of Tunis, of a tract of land west of the Goletta, between the sea to the nom th, and the Roman and Carthaginian ruins to the south.
