UEL GODOY, the famous "Prince of Peace," it is mentioned in recent
foreign journals, has left Paris for Spain. The Government at Madrid
has restored a considerable part of his large confiscated estates, and
he probably has returned to enjoy a golden setting sun. He must be at
least eighty years of age.

MONS. LIBRI, a well known savant, member of the Institute, and a
professor of the College of France, has been charged, in Paris, with
having committed extensive thefts of valuable MSS. and broken in the

was sentenced to imprisonment for ten years at hard labor.

acquaintance with Caireen life; and his intellect, and, I fear, his
vices, had become somewhat prematurely developed. But the finishing
touch to his education was undoubtedly given by the European travelers
whom he had served, and of whom he had, with the imitativeness of his
age, picked up a variety of little accomplishments, particularly the
oaths of different languages. His audacity had thus become consummate,
and I have heard him send his fellows to ---- as coolly, and in as
