France.
An aid-de-camp of General Benignity
be Hilliers has just reached Paris with
important despatches, the nature of
which has, in part transpired. It would
seem that there is little likelihood of an
understandin g being come to between
the gallant eneral and the Government
of the Cardinals, owing to the manifest
jealousy of French tnfluenee entertain
ed by the latter. While the Cardinals
nre for placing the Pope under the pro
tection of a mixed garrison of Austrians
and Italians, Gen. De Hilliers insists
upon leaving a French force of 12,000
men in the city of Rome. This propo
sition has been met by the Cardinals with
a decided refusal, and affairs are as far
as ever from being arranged.
The French fur - ids continue to rise.—

Austria:
The Breslau Gazette of the 6th, says
that the public mind in Vienna is much
taken up with reports Of a coup d'etat—
teports which are even current in mili
tary circles. The day named for put
ting it into effect was the 6th or 7th
instant. The military measures are re.;
ally formidable. Within ncircleof six
miles around Vienna, the houses are full
of soldiers. There are at least 50,000
men in Vienna, and 50,000 more could be
poured in by the railways in the course
of three or four days.
The reply of the Austrian CabineE to
a note from Prussia, on the subject of
the Erfurt Assembly is as follows :--
The Austrian Cabinet is sorry to clod
that its former communication, instead
of producing the desired etlect upon
Prussia, has elicited replies, which,
though evasive, are full of signification.
In its former remonstrances, the Austri
an Cabinet fully stated its view of the
question and of the consequences of the
step which Prussia was taking. Since
these remonstrances were unheeded,
Austria will not condescend to wage a
war of words with the Prussian Cabinet
but reserving all her objections, protests
and rights till a further opportunity, she
wishes it to be understood that her si
lence is not to be construed into an ac
quiescence with the Petissian project,
nor with a derelletidn of her rights."
General Count Wilna, ►oho comman

Prussia&
BERLIN, Jan. 7.—lt is understood that
the ministerial crisis was over, and that
on this day the Chambers would receive
a royal message proposing the oath to
be taken to the Constitution, and accep ,

tnents.
t urko y I
The correspondent of the London
Times, under date of Dec. 19th, says i
A courier has arrived here from St. Pe
tersburgh with the Emperor's answer to
the last communication made to his Im
perial Highness by the Sublime Porte,
with regard to the question of the Pol
ish and Hungarian Refugees.
1n a former letter 1 told yon that the
Turkish Ministers were willing to con
sent to the expulsion of the Poles who
had been concerned in the late amga-
Tian insurrection, but they objected to
the expulsion of the Polish refugees
Who were resident in Turkey previously
to that event, and who were provided
with French and other passports. The
Czar has agreed to the terms proposed
by the Porte,. and Dembinski and the
other Poles who served in Hungary are
to be expelled:
Their countrymen resident in Turkey
who were not concerned in that insurrec
tion are to remain unntolested. If, how
ever, any one, without reference to the
country under whose protection he may
be, shall, while resident in the Ottoman
Empire, be guilty of any act hostile to
the Government of the Emperor Nich
olas, he shall, at the detnand of the
Russian Envoy, be expelled from the
Sultan's dominions.
Kossuth and the Hungarian refugees are to be
confined in a fortified tower in the interior.
They are not to be close prisoners, but their
place or residence will be under the constant
Surveillance of the Turkish authorities.
the correspondent of the 111;;;Wg herald,
however, writing on the same day, asserts that
the Emperor of Russia has refused to accept
the Sultan's guarantee for the conduct of the
Poles, and that the matter is as far from being
settled as ever.
-There is a philanthrophist in Bos
ton who drinks all the brandy he can get,
in order to "get the cursed stuff out of
the country." He thinks ruin ought
to be put down.

The Parkman Case.
More developments—The Tan Box--ilt
tempt of Prof. Webster to induce a
Woman to make a Wrong Statement—
The Trial Erc.-,
We find the following additional par
ticulars relative to this horrid affair in a
fourth edition of the Boston Herald of
Tuesday :
A few of the developments Made be
fore the Grand Jury relative to this ex
traordinary case have leaked out and
from the subject of public comment.
The circumstance of finding in Prof.
Webster's laboratory the thorax and one
of the thighs of a human being, imbed
ded in tith e in a tea box, will of course
be recollected by our readers. A std•
king feature earcufated to involve the
Professor still more completely in the
horrid affair, is among the disclosures
recently made.
It appears that the tan In which the
remains were found, was brought from
Professor Webster's house in Cambridge
by Mr. Sawin, the expressman, at the
same time he conveyed the grapevine
cuttings to the Professor's laboratory.—
These cuttings, it has already been sta
ted, could be' used in burning the body,
and concealint the offensive' odor. The
fact, then, of the remains being discov
ered in Professor Webster's laboratory,
partially charred by burning--the unu
sual material used in consuming them—
and above all, the cireutnstance that the
tan in which they were concealed, was
brought frotn the Professor's own house
at his own request—form one of the
most startling developments implicating
the Professor that has yet been made
public.
We learn that a 'Mrs. Bent, who re. ,
sides in Cambridgeport, near the bridge
testified before the Grand Jury to the
feet that the Professor had called upon
her a day or two after the disappearance
of Dr. Parkman, and asked her if she
could not state that she recognized the
Dr. on passing the bridge. Upon her
replying that she did not, he urged her to
reflect carefully and discover whether
such a circumstance could not be recal
led to her mind. She still insisted upon
her ignorance in the matter, and Pro
fessor Webster exclaimed, "Alas! I fear
the poor Doctor has b een mur d er ed."
It . will be reccolleeted that the toll
man on the other end of the bridge, has
asserted that the Doctor passed him on
the afternoon of the day of his disappear
ance. This was known to the Professor
and his effort to induce Mrs. Bent to
make a similar statement, for the pur
pose of corroborating the toll-man, would
,eem to indicate a deeply laid scheme to
get the impression abroad that the Doc•
tor had passed over the bridge after the
period of entering the Medical College.
Oa the night of his arrest, the Profes
sor requested the officers to take a dif
ferent course from that in which they
were going ; for the purpose of calling
on Mrs, Bent, and Interrogating her
again on the subject. r:
The multitude of Witnesses in the
case have given recognisances to appear
on the first Monday in March, in the
Supreme Judicial Court, at which time
the prisoner will be arraigned, and the
case probably proceeded with.
The Boston Traveller; of Tuesday,
says :—The WittleSses ih the Patkman
case were all recognised yesterday in
$lOO each ; to appear at the March term
of the Supreme Court ; to testify as to
what they know in the matter of the
charges against Prof. Webster.
The Trabscript has the seine story
as follows :—lt has been stated--we
know not how correctly--that the Grand
Jury were unanimous in voting the bill.
Forty-six witnesses were yesterday roc
ognised to appear at the trial in the Su
preme Judicial Court.
Life.
It is a trite remark that youth is the
happiest portion oflife, but like many
other wise sayings, it passes unheeded,
till at some late petiod in the great jour
ney we look back, and by a comparison
of the past and present, are forced to
feel and confess the truth which we have
before doubted or eonderrined. Mankind
are ever tempted to think that there
is something better in the future, than
is afforded by the present ; if they are
not happy yet, they still indulge bright
anticipations. They are reluctant, even
When advanced in years, to believe that
the noon of lie's joys is past. It is not
till the shaddows, dark and defined, are
creeping around us, and forcing us to
deal honestly with onrselVes, that we ad
mit the truth—that life is made up of a
series of illusions ; that we are constant.
ly pursuing bubbles, which seem bright
at a distance, and allare us into the
chase, but which fly front our pursuit,
or if reached, burst in the hand that
grasps them. It is not till we are al.
ready at the landing, and about to step
itito the bark that is to bear us from the
shore, that we come to the Conclusion
that human life is a chase, in which the
gathe is nothing, and the pursuit every
thing; and that the brightest and best
portion of the chase is found in the
spring morning, when the faculties are
fresh, fancy pure, and all nature robed
in dew, and chiming with the music of
birds, and bees, and waterfalls. It is
something to have enjoyed life, even if
that enjoyment tnah not come back
again, for memory can revive the past,
and at least bring back its cheers.
Rev. John Wm. Heim, pastor of the Lutheran
Church at Loysville, Perry county, Pa., died
on the 27th ult., in the 68th year of his age.
Three Young Ladies. litoivhed.
Three young ladies, one the daugh
ter of Judge Woodward, (Ellen M.,) the
second Miss Ann Butler, a resident of
his family, and the third a Miss Mary
R. Benner, of Bellefonte, Pa., who was
visiting for a short time in the family of
Judge W., left their home in Kingston,
to walk over to Willcesharre (about one
mile) on Saturtle.y last. The water of
the Susquehanna had risen over the flat
lands and rendered the road impassable
far Wagons, and on Friday night had fro
zen to the thickness perhaps of two or
three inches. They undertook, in per•
fact safety as they supposed, to walk on
the ice from the house to the bridge and
amuse themselves in sliding along; but
in attempting to cross a small pond of
hack water, (so called,) which had been
frozen over, Miss Benner broke through,
followed immediately by the other two
and all three were drowned, no proper
assistance being at hand. The alarm
was given by one of two little girls who
accompanied them, to some citizens of
Kingston who hastened to the spot, a
shawl upon the ice designating it to them.
By placing boards, they succeeded in
reaching the hole in the ice and bringing
up the bodies ; but life was extinct, and
all their efforts to restore it were fruit
less, the bodies having been in the water
a half hour. This sad event is deeply
deplored in the community where the
young ladies resided, and where they
were highly respected.
KITTANTNG IRON WORKS.—This exten
sive establishment is about suspending
operations for an indefinite period. The
depressed condition of the iron market
is the cause of the suspension. Messrs.
Brown, Phillips & Co., the owners will
not risk the large capital invested, by
continuing, a business which at the pres
ent prices of manufactured iron, will not
only not pay, but Joust inevitably lead to
ruin. This suspension will fall heavily
on several hundred persons dependant on
the works for a livelihood, and have a
depressing effect upon the markets and
upon real estate. Here are some of the
unmistakable fruits of the Tariff law of
184.13, so much vaunted by the leaders of
Locofocoism. And, unless the present
Congress comes to the rescue, and enacts
a law similar to that of 1842, the iron
business of the country will be speedily
ruined, and Great Britain have the com
plete monopoly and entire control of
that important interest.—Kittaning Free
Press.
Socialism in France&
The Paris correspondent of the Phil.
adelphia Ledger, says
"Seizures continue of the journals.—
The Reformer, for example, for having
published the address of the Democratic
Exiles in London, which ends with the
customary political aspiration. Do not
imagine that Socialism is on the wane in
the Provinces. What Martin Luther's
trumpet note of reform was in his coun
try, so is Socialism in this. Nothing can
stifle it. Ledra Rollin, the great polit
ical leader, who brought on the Febuary
Revolutioni has just issued a powe-ful
pamphlet, entitled "The Thirteenth of
June," giving an account, and doubtless
a true One, of that event. He wrote it
from London. The government seized
the edition. But a fresh one is out, wor
king through Paris like electricity, under
the nose of the police.
"In the Provinces, juries acquit the
Socialists. Menance, too, overawes the
juries. The object of the Socialists is
to get the majority—to remodel the Con
stitution so as to dispense with the office
of President, Which they view as an Itn
perial tvartning-pan.
