ARD-EL•KADER, who was believed to have been driven back into the desert, has again mad* his appearance, and draws the population after him wherever he moves."  We subjoin some miscellaneous extracts from the  papers :  " The squadron for the expedition against Madagascar is about to sail. According to the Constitutionnel, it is COMposed of the frigates La Gloire, Captain Aubry Bailleul ; Armide, Captain Despointes ; Reine Blanche, Captain Geller ; Belle Poule, Captain Grael ; and Pschye, Captain Doret. But as Captain Grael is appointed Governor of the Island of Bourbon, he will on his arrival be replaced by Captain Desfosses, commandant of that station, who will take the general command of the expedition. The frigates will not take out their full complements, because they will have to carry troops of infantry, marine artillery, and engineers. Two or three store-sloops will accompany them. The command of the troops is given to General Duvivier, who has served for a long time in Africa." _ _  The Gazette de Lyon of the 30th ult., says:— " Our market has for several days been in a state of great inquietude from our financial position. A scarcity of men is everywhere felt; and from the depression of prices in all kinds of manufactured goods, considerable losses have been strtained. Want of credit is extreme, and the panic which attends moments of crisis aggravates the evil, by adding inconsiderate alarms to the general mistrust. Every man feels it necessary to be cautious, so that all business may be said to be suspended. We are informed that, under the influence of these disastrous circumstances, a meeting of the principal manufacturers took place the day before yesterday, to take into consideration the injury done by the temptations offered to divert capital, by the facility afforded to speculators and gamblers by the establishment of a stock exchange ; and it is said that a petition for its suppression was unanimously agreed upon." "A royal ordinance in the Moniteur directs the publication of the treaty of friendship, commerce, and navigation concluded on the 24th of September, 1844, between France and China.  " The cold weather appears to have set in this year earlier in the south of France than in other parts of the country. The mountains in the Basses-Alpes have been for some (lays covered with snow. The same has occurred towards the Basses Pyraties, and ice has already been seen in the Valley of the Huveaume, near Marseilles. In that city on Monday last the thermometer stood at 25 of Fahrenheit."  A letter from Lucerne of the 27th ult. says:— " The jury charged with the examination into the affair of M. Leu has just charged M. d'Eschernbach, formerly mess. ber cf the Grand Council, Captain Corragioni, and M. Ineichen de kothenburg, as accomplices in the murder of that gentleman. Three other parties, who hare fled, have been also indicted, and the examining judge has demanded their extradition. They are Antoine Muller, brother of the principal person accused; Buhler, formerly member of the Court of Appeal ; and Troller, an inn-keeper at Lucerne. M. Casimir Pfylifer, whose conditional liberation from prison has been announced, has been already present at the sitting of the tribunal of the district, of which he is vice-president. He is, nevertheless, under a kind of surveillance, and has been compelled to furnish 5,000 francs caution money, for not having made the authorities acquainted with the intended assassination of M. Len, of which he had been informed." The market both for Stock and Shares on the Paris Bourse was very firm on Tuesday, and prices rose considerably.

The increase is chiefly in diseases of the lungs, and the organs of respiration, the number under that head showing an excess over tke averages of five autumns. Tho total amount was 331, last week 294, and average 323. The measles appear to be less virulent, though the number of deaths are twice as great as the average. The violent deaths were 20, of which 6 wen suicides.
