which, he trusted, would bring this sub

The affair of the Duchess de Berri has
given rise to many surmises. On the
22d Feb. the Duchess handed to Gen.
Bngeaud, Governor of the citadel of
Bi iye, the following declaration: "Impel
led by circumstances, and by the mea
sures ordered by the Government, alt ho'
I h id the most weighty reasons for keep
ing my marriage secret, 1 think it due to
myself, as well as to my children, to de
clare that 1 was secretly married during
iny residence in Italy." This declara
tion of the Duchess must be the death
bbtvv to the legitimate party. Everv one
recollects the general reprobation which
followed through all Europe the marriage
of Marie Louisa with Count Neiperg.
That of the; Duchess, in whom and on
whose son all the hopes of the legitimates
centred, will be more generally blamed.
BELGIUM.
The King of Holland, according to
Brussels accounts of the 5ib, had refused
to comply with the summary demand of
France and England, and declared him
self ready to meet all the consequences
of such refusal. We see not how, under
th cicumstances,the march of a French
army and the sailing of a British fleet a
gninrt IL Hand is to be avoided for
these were the alternatives stated by Tal
leyrand and Lord Palmerston, in case of
the non-compliance of the King of Hol
land by the 15th March.
SPAIN.
The most perfect tranquility prevails
at present, not only in the Spanish capi
tal, but over tlieSpanish portion of the pe
ninsula. The seditious movements in
the province of Leon, which had indeed
never excited any great a rm, had been
put down without any difficulty or delay.
Spain, under the liberal and enlighten

is said, acknowledge the independence of
all her ancient possessions in the West

opening a trade with the revolted States.
PORTUGAL.
A packet from Lisbon has brought let
ters of the 15th tilt, but they contain lit

ty from typhus fever had taken place a

with his sister, was expected shortly to
return to the capital. Some new levies
of troops are said to have been ordered,
and more activity was observable in the
arsenal,where exertions were making to
put the John VI. ship of the line, and a
frigate into a state fit for service.

The Sultan had therefore applied to
the RUssian Ambassador, Count Buten
loff, for the promised aid of a Russian
fleet to defend the channel; and the Am
bassador had accordingly sent orders to
Sebastopol, but he had declined ordering
the advance of a Russian land force,
which was requested by the Divan. He
does not seem to be authorized to grant
this request,, as a courier has been des
patched to St. Petersburg for instruc
tions. These letters contain various
speculations on the conduct of the Euro
pean Ambassadors, which, however, are
put an end to by the official news that
the Austrian Internuncio had announced
the acceptance by the Viceroy of Egypt
of the proposals offered by the Sultan.
This news is given both by the Austrian
Observer and the Algemeine Zeitung. It
has caused incredible joy in the Turkish
capital, where, however, perfect tranquil
ity already prevailed.

The Mails. There are few persons,
perhaps, who are aware of the enormous
weight of the Mails in some parts of the
country. We have seen a statement of
the mails, and it consisted of three port
manteaus and twelve canvass bass
weighing the enormous weight of 3318
pounds. It is said the Christian advo
cate alone weighed 1500 pounds. A
letter from the New York office, accom
panying the above statement, says: "This
is not only a light day with us; but there
is forwarded every day, papers and pack
ages by two or three other mail con
veyances which are not included; nor are
the quarterly accounts included, which
will weigh enormously." If, in addition
to this load, Admiral Rceside has to drag
with it several acres of the New Jersey
soil, as the United States Gazette face
tiously observed, we think he has an ar
duous task to perform, and has some
claims to the clemency of the editorial

Peru. Intelligence has been received

resident at the ports of Callao find Lima.
This requisition being refused, a bill was
passed, and only wanted the sanction of!
tngton correspondent of the
New York Standard states, in relation to
the burning of the Treasury, that the fire
commenced in the room of a subordinate

Execution. On Friday last the negro
Washington, property of Mr. Richards
of this county, sentenced to death at our
last Superior Court, for the murder of
Mr. Charles Daniel, was executed in pur
suance thereof. We do not believe it
would answer any good purpose to give
a detailed description of this 'end of a
transgressor,' and we shall therefore
briefly notice the leading incidents, and
leave it to pass into the shades of ob
livion. At an early hour in the morning the
village began to be filled with people; the
volunteer company and the troop of cav
alry were early under arms, and all the
necessary preparations were made for
mov ing to the place of execution. At a
bout 12 o'clock, the convict was taken
from the prison, and in the custody of the
Sheriff, he was escorted by the military
to the Gallows, which had been erected
on the Poor House Tract, about a mile
from town. Having reached the spot,
the prisoner ascended the scaffold. The
assembled crowd took their places around
the Guard, in the surrounding trees, &c.
and has been variously estimated nt from
3 to 6000 persons.
The criminal appeared to be uncon
cerned about his fate, and looked upon
the assembled multitude with the most
astonishing indifference. His voice was
firm, and his whole system appeared to
be perfectly at ease. He stood up, or
rested in different positions as seemed
best to suit his inclination. He address
ed the crowd in an audible voice, and ac
companied his words with the most ener
getic action, stamping with his feet, &c.
The purport of his speech, so far as we
could gather it, was that he was innocent
of the charge for which he was about to
suffer, that the murderer was yet out; but
he did not know who did the deed. He
warned his colored brethren against
drinking spirits said that love of drink
had brought him to what he was, &c.
He declared his willingness to die, and
said he had rather be where he then was,
under the gallows, with his sins forgiven,
than to be at large with their burden of
iniquity upon his conscience, &c. He
called tw colored men to him and made
some communications in relation to his
wife, &c.
After considerable delay, during which
he repeatedly denied any participation in
the murder of Mr. Daniel, the Sheriff
proceeded to the discharge of his painful
duty. Haying tied the hands and secu-
