FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRANCE. DEATH OF THE DUKE DB GUlsB.-The Duke de Guise, second son of his Royal Highness the Duke d'Aumale, governor-general of Algeria, died at three o'clock on Sunday morning, at St. Cloud, after three days' illness. The child was born on the 11th of last month, and has since been interred at Droux. THB BONA.PARTES.- The ex-King of Westphalia, Jerome Bonaparte, and his son, are in Paris; and went on Sunday to the Invalides to pray at the tomb of the Emperor Napoleon. They were received by General Petit and the staff-officers of the hotel. While they were performing their pious duty, the greater part of the veteran soldiers were ranged in ranks to do them honor as they passed. The ex- Monarch and Prince have been entertained by Louis Philippe and the latter has petitioned to be allowed to enter the French army, but this was of course re- fused. A bill granting a pension solicited by the ex-King will, however, be laid before the Chamber of Deputies immediately after it shall have sat for the transaction of the business. THE BBAUVALUON DUEL.—The trial of M. Rosa- mond de Beauvallon, for perjury, was brought to a conclusion in Paris on Friday week. He was found guilty, and sentenced to imprisonment for eight years, and the expense of process. The jury recommended him to mercy. The trial has created immense sen- sation in Paris, and M. Beauvallon has appealed to the Court of Cassation against the sentence of the Court of Assize. We have not space for the de- tails of the trial. It is enough to say that the accused relied for his acquittal on certain letters written by a mistress (a married woman), which ap- peared to have been got up" for the mere purpose of the defence. A passage from one of these letters is worth quoting. It raised a laugh from even a French audience, much accustomed to such matters. It A sincere friend, Rosamond is still rarer than a faithful mistress. But I see you frown so let us talk no more about it. Keep your illusions—may they be the companions of your exile, poor child of my thoughts I expect my husband. (Loud laugh- ter in the court.) He is always on the point of leaving, but does not. He is so much occupied at this period of the year I I shall no doubt return to the country with him. Tell me how you have been received by your friends Generals Narvaez, Mazzaredo, Peguela, Cordova-in short, tell me a great many things. My little daughter warmly kisses her friend. I can never reconcile myself to place her at school, and beside I love to consecrate to her education those hours which I should otherwise lose in society." SPAIN. THS CHANGS OF MtMtSTHY.—The intrigue which led to the change of ministry came as much by sur- prise on the people of Madrid as on those of Paris and Londonj The Ileraldo, which is edited by M. Sartorius, one of the new ministers, states that the change was an unhoped for" event, and would be received with surprise and satisfaction by all Spain." The Eeo del CorAinercio says that the pro- ceeding was a "scandal" which would cause unut- terable Surprise. liven the semi-official organ of the ex-cabinet expresses astonishment. It says fhe Goyena ministry has fallen. At eight o'clock at night nobody whispered a crisis at eight in the mormng we read decrees nominating a new cabinet." After some observations in which the conduct of M. Ros de Olano is commented on, and surprise again ex- pressed, the Correo says M. Goyena has fallen and General Narvaefc been substituted for him. How? we know not. Why? we are ignorant. When 1 last night. This is all the result of the intelli- gence we have received." Eco del Commercio enters into details, the Substance of which is, that conferen- ces took place between M. Ros de Olano, General Serrano, and General Narvaez, and that at the con- clusion of them, they all had a i interview with the Queen, in the course of which she signed the decrees. The Eco adds that she did so with great repugnance and wept bitterly; and it asserts that one of the arguments used to induce her to do so was a state- ment to the effect that a vast conspiracy against her had been discovered in the Progressista party. The Esnanol confirms the fact of the Queen having signed -0 p the decrees, after having had an interview with M. Ros de Olana, and Generals Serrano and Narvaez. THE FIRST ACTS OF NARVAEZ.—General Narvaez has inaugurated his ministry by revoking the most liberal and most praiseworthy measure adopted by the late short-lived cabinet. He is expected to de- scend in time upon the Amnesty. He has published a royal decree revoking the previous decree by which civil governors were appointed in the provinces, having co-ordinate jurisdiction with the military go- vernors. No such plan would suit General Narvaez, who looks to the sword, and the sword alone, as his only support. Another measure has been adopted by the new cabinet, which, under the semblance of observing the principles of the constitution, forebodes no good to the liberties of the country. It has called together the Cortes for the 15th of November next, not because the Cortes is formed of the constitutional representatives of the people, but because the present members of which it is composed are to a man devo- ted adherents of General Narvaez and Louis Philippe, and are ready to do their their behests, however un- I. patriotic or however dangerous to the liberties of the nation they may be. These are the first two acts of the drama of reaction. The plot of the piece is known to the whole world, but how the authors are to carry out its details remains yet to be seen. One thing certain is, that no means will be spared to arrive at the desired end of placing a descendant of Louis Philippe upon the throne of Isabella II. It is rumored that Concha is to be dismissed from Cata- lonia, and replaced by Breton and that Roncali is to be Captain-general of Madrid. Such changes, even though there be nothing certain known respect- ing them, are not unlikely—they are the men after Narvaez's own heart. It is certain that the garrison of Madrid is to be considerably increased. Six bat- talions of infantry and two squadrons of cavalry are expected to return to Madrid without delay. CHRISTINA'S RETURN TO MADIIIP.—This woman and her husband have left Paris suddenly and secretly for Madrid. The motive for secrecy was to avoid the possibility of being preceeded by any announce- ment that she was on the road. Her arrival would be a surprise to the Queen her daughter. There seems now little doubt of the main features of the plot. It was effected by means of the favorite." Serrano, having been convinced" by "the actual receipt of the remittance in specie from Queen Chris- tina" (to the amount of nearly £50,000, I am told), obtained of Queen Isabella her acquiescence in the proposition to send M. Salamanca adrift and to adopt General Narvaez for her prime minister." This act perpetrated, Serrano, with the dissimulation which he had displayed throughout the whole transaction, suffered his friends the Progressistas to believe that he would yet play Narvaez a trick. He knew that he must not remain in Madrid after perfidy such as he had been guilty of. He affected to listen to pro- posals to appoint him Captain or Governor-general of Cuba, but, having the money in his pocket, he re- solved to quit Spain, and not, as he said to a friend, wait the fate of Godoy. He accordingly left Madrid, and is by this time probably in France. ITALY. THE NKw ROMAN SENATE.—Letters from Rome of the 2nd inst. announce that the Pope published on that day a motu proprio decree on the organisation of the municipal council of Rome, which is to assume the name of senate. The council is to consist of 100 members namely, sixty-four proprietors, thirty-two lawyers, savans, artists, bankers, merchants, &c., and four representing the ecclesiastical body. The munici- pality will be composed of a senator or mayor and eight deputy-mayors, who were first to be chosen by the government, and afterwards to be elected by the council. The members of the latter are to be re- newed by thirds annually. The organic law rela- tive to the legislative body was expected to appear in a few days. In the evening the entire population of Rome was to repair to Monte Cavallo, the residence of the Pope, to congratulate his holiness on the enact- ment of the municipal law, of which that capital had been deprived during several centuries. FERRARA.—Letters from Ferrara of the 4th inst. [state that the Austrian troops were still iupossession of the town. THB GRAND DUKE OF TUSCANVS REFORMS.—The Paris Steele contains the following interesting intelli- gence from Florence:—"The premises contained in the programme of the new Tuscan cabinet were—1st, the organisation of a civic guard, divided into two corps, one formed on the plan of the German Landwehr, and liable to take the field and the sedentary, destined to guard the towns 2ndly, the augmentation of the army, with a corresponding ma- terialof war 3rdly, the establishment of municipali- ties, founded on the principle of popular election 4thly, the establishment of provincial councils, also elective 5thly, a central representation, organised according to the form circumstances will suggest. The Grand Duke warmly concurred in the idea of an Italian customs-union. The new cabinet gave on that subject the most positive instructions to M. Marini, the Tuscan envoy at the court of Turin." AMERICA. POLITICAL NEWS.—The Washington has brought no political intelligence of interest. No later advices had been received from the seat of war itt Mexico, and considerable doubts were entertained of the speedy termination of the war. The non-publication on the part of the government of the official despaches of General Scott, respecting the battles before Mexico and the armistice which followed them, had excited fears in some minds lest the position of the American forces should not be so favorable as was at first imagined. ACCIDENT TO THE BRITANNIA. — The steam-ship Britannia, which sailed from Liverpool on the 4th ult., reached Boston early on the morning of the 19th. We regret to learn that she touched the ground off Cape Race, Newfoundland, on the 14th, in a thick fog, but got off with no very serious injury. She was to be docked at New York the day after the Washington left, in order to ascertain exactly the extent of damage which she had sustained.

THE CHOLERA'S APPROACH.—The Austrian Lloyds' steamer, which arrived on the evening of the 21st at Constantinople from Trebizonde, had two casesof cho- lera on board both proved fatal. It was sent into quarantine for ten days. No case had occurred at Constantinople. From the official report of the Russian Academy respecting the state and progress of this disease, it would appear that in its spread east- ward and westward it has proceeded with less rapi- dity. The intenseness of its effects appears to depend essentially upon local circumstances. Upon an average every fourth person falls a victim to the disease. No ACCOUNTING FOR TASTES.—At Auchnacloy, Ire- land, a beautiful girl, aged fourteen, whose parents are wealthy, and move in the highest circles, ran away last week with a common clodhopper who was old enough to be her father. Before her flight she robbed her father of a large sum of money, and at- j tempted to force open a private desk with a view of increasing her booty. An active pursuit was corn- menced, and a hue and cry raised through the country, which resulted in the capture of the fugitives. As a i large quantity of the money stolen from the young girl's father was found upon her intended, he was arrested and committed to gaol, where he will be left to chew the bitter cud of disappointment, instead of enjoying a happy honeymoon. A STRANGE VISITOR IN A COURT OF JUSTICE.—At the Achill petty sessions, the business of the court was last week interrupted by crowds rushing into the court-house to escape the rain, which fell in torrents. The tumult at one period became intolerable so much so, that the chairman was compelled to inter- pose his authority to quell it, when the following scene took place:—Mr. Cruise (chairman)-"Keep silence there Several voices—" There's a crather walkin' on us, yer honner Mr. O'Donnell— u Bring forward the beast, that we may see whether it is'a spirit of health, or a goblin of the damned! A voice "It's a hoss, yer honner." Mr. Cruise — A horse what brings a horse here ?" Mr. Kelly —" Horses and asses herd together." Here a raw- boned, broken-winded spavined beast, whose back imparted to it the appearance of a dromedary, was brought forward amidst great laughter. Upon the barrister ordering its removal, Mr. Hillus, a magis- trate claimed acquintance with the brute, which he said was his, and was one of the most useful horses he had. He concluded by informing the court that if it were turned out he should go along with it. The result was, that the wretched animal was allow- ed the shelter of the court until the rain ceased and a better conducted spectator was never in a court of justice than the said horse proved itself on this oc- casion. WHO WAS THE DUKK.—The Standard, from which we took a paragraph about an alleged ducal smuggler last week, has since published the following letter :— We, the undersigned, being the only three dukes owning yachts, call upon you to substantiate the calumny which you have permitted your journal of last evening to give currency and circulation to. Marlborough, Beaufort, and Rutland." To which the Standard appends this comment:—" The story refers, we understand, to a person claiming ducal rank, but not recognised in the British peerage." LiviNG THRASHING-MACHINE.—T^RVST week Mr.Wil- liam Rule, of Camborne, agreed [with John Carthew, a farm laborer of Phillack, to thi ash a quantity of barley, for which he was to give 10s., six meals, and a gallon of beer. Carthew commenced, and in 11 hours he completed his task, amounting to 021 sheaves, which is considered six days and a half re- gular work, 14G sheaves being a "customary day's work. He says he will undertake for a wager a simi- lar task for six successive days. He thrashed, last year, in Copperhouse. 400 slua'osof wheat in 12 hours. Carthew is a tall, rolwt man, and 5S yeais old. — West Briton. ADULTERATION OF OAT.MEAT..—At the Glasgow Ci cuit Court of Justiciary, en Wednesday, September 29, Alexander Ihnnatyup, grain-merchant, St. Vin- cent-street, Glasgow, was indicted for falsehood, fraud, and wilful imposition, in having mi^ed bran and thirds witli oatmeal, supplied by the house of Ban- natyne and Co., as oatmeal for the relie of the poor in the Highlands, in pursuance of a contract with the committee in Glasgow for the relief of Highland des- titution. After the evidence had been heard, the jury delivered the following verdict i—Guilty as libelled, with the exception of mixing with bran, but recommended the prisoner to the utmost leniency of the court, in consequence of the practice having been adopted by other parties in the trade." The Lord Justice Clerk sentenced him to be imprisoned four months from this date, and pay a tine of .£:300 fail- ing to pay which, at the expiry of that term, to suffer other four months' imprisonment. The prisonerWatf removed. THE NEW ZEALAND COMPANY resumed its active operations on Friday, at a special meeting held to obtain the authority of the shareholders for receiving the loan of £ 13G.OOO from the treasury. The direc- tors stated, that Mr. John Welsford CoWell had en- tered upon his duties as government commissioned and the assembled shareholders gave the required' sanction. Captain Otway, R.N., who had been two' years on the coast of New Zealand, gave the meeting a flourishing account of the Wellington settlements. INTENSE Foo.—On Sunday morning and evening' the metropolis and suburbs were invested with a thick yellow fog, although in the afternoon the at- mosphere was tolerably clear. So thick was the fog' on the river, that the Gravesend boats had the great- est difficulty in steering their course and in the latter part of the day some of them were unable to" proceed. The Comet left the New Pier at six o'clock for London, but could go no farther than Rosherville, the captain declining to make any further attempt, and consequently about 200 passengers, to their nu small chagrin, were landed, and reluctantly com- pelled to postpone their return to town till the next morning. The Satellite steamer, which left Black- wall Pier at six o'clock for Gravesend, was unable to reach farther than Greenhithe, where the passengers were landed, some few of them sleeping at that place, and others taking a fatiguing pedestr'aa journey to their place of destination, where their friends were anxiously awaiting their arrival. When off Gray's the Blackwall steamer came in contact with a schooner, by which she was so much damaged, her bulwarks being broken in, that she could proceed nor further, but was compelled to cast anchor for the re* mainder of the night. FEVER IN EDINBURGH.—We regret to learti that the epidemic, which has prevailed for the last few months in Edinburgh, continues to spread with un- abated violence, notwithstanding the exertions which have been made to arrest its progress. The number of patients at present in the Royal infirmary is 772,- of whom no fewer than 590 are fever patients, and so numerous are the applications for admission that the managers have been compelled, for want of ac- commodation, to refuse fifty-two applications. Within the present month 199 cases have been received intc the infirmary from the city parish alone, and on Wednesday week there were no less than eighteen new cases within that limited district. On Sunday night, about a quarter to eight o'clock^ immediately after the evening service, and whilW some of the congregation were leaving the porch, a fearful explosion of gas took place in the interi'cT of Walsall church. For some time past an escape of gas had been noticed, and on Sunday eight the beadle, a man named Lunn, proceeded to the churchwarden's pew, from whence it was supposed to proceed, with a lighted candle. So soon as he entered the gas ig- nited, and a frightful explosion too place. The pews adjacent, right and left, were blown in all directions, the fragments mounting to the ceiling, and, what is most of all to be lamented, the poor fellow Lunn was mangled in a most dreadful manner. Most miracu- lously, no other person was injured. Had it occurred during the service the consequences must have been most awful. The damage done is estimated at up- wards of £] ,000. AFFECTING INCIDENT.—A number of "navvies" employed on the Caledonian railway had formed a temporary colony at Middlegill, about three miles on the Glasgow side of Beattock, and were accomodated partly in a stone cottage, and partly in a wooden hut or huts, covered with tarpaulin, adjoining it. About three o'clock in the morning a fire broke out accidentally either in the cottage or the temporary sheds, and literally surprised the poor people, rocked in the sleep of labor in their beds. Two women were severely scorched, but in the hurry to escape, three children were left behind. They were imme- diately missed, but no one durst enter the blazing huts to relieve them. They were respectively of the ages of eleven years, three years, and nine months. When the mail passed, a short time after the occur- rence of the accident, the desolate group, consisting of about twenty men and women, were gazing on the wreck in which all their property was consumed. The blackened and mutilated bodies of the three little sufferers were dug out of the ruins and buried in one coffin on Saturday last. Two women who were in- jured-one of whom was the mother of the children —were conveyed to the railway company's hospital at Howcleugh.—Glasgow Herald. A FUNERAL CEREMONY, in commemoration of the death of O'Connell, took place in New York, on the 22nd ult. The Irish inhabitants of the city seemed to have generally turned out on the occasion. The procession was formed in the second avenue, and ex- tended from St. Mark's church down to Houston- street. The several marshals and aids were mounted on handsome horses, decked out with sable trappings, while the riders themselves were dressed in mourn- ing.

It however appears, that, owing to circumstances, many of which, it is alleged, arise from temporary causes, the disbursements during the last six months have been greater than in the corresponding period of last year, and that the surplus of profit is consequently less; but it is, at the same time, mentioned, that the total receipts show a steady increase, not- withstanding the deficiency in homeward freight created by the decrease of shipments of specie from Mexico.— Times. There is an article L the Philosophical Magazine for October, from the pen of Mr. Richard Taylor, F.S.A., F.L.S., denying that the late Mr. John Wal- ter, proprietor of the Times journal, was the indi- vidual who furnished Koenig with money, for tba purpose of maturing his invention.
