BEES.— After near 40 years' experience in the stud) 

 and Management of Bees, the Hive which Mr. SAVAGE, 

 of Swaffham, has introduced to the Apiarian World, is cer- 

 tainly better adapted than any other Hive ever yet invented, 

 for the reception of any superfluous store collected, it beinp 

 also easier in its deprivation at any time of the season. And 

 the neatness and durability of its construction defies the ad- 

 mission of insects of every description. It is well worthy the 

 attention of the Nobility, and every friend of humanity.—

Keu)S of the mitt*. 



The leading topic of our foreign news is the announce- 

 ment that a collision has taken place between the French 

 troops and the forces of the Emperor of Morocco. The 

 French were completely victorious, putting a large body 

 of Moorish cavalry to the rout, and capturing three 

 standards. In Paris this affair is regarded as the 

 commencement of actual hostilities, although Marshal 

 Soult in the French Chambers, and Lord Aberdeen in 

 the House of Lords, have declared their conviction that 

 war will not take place. The French Government, how- 

 ever, are strengthening their position on the Morocco 

 frontier, and a squadron of line-of-battle ships and 

 steamers has been equipped, under the command of the 

 Prince de Joinville, for the purpose of cruising off the 

 eastern coast of Morocco. The Moors are evidently 

 collected in large numberg, and are animated by a 

 hostile spirit which the efforts of diplomacy may 

 find it difficult, if not impossible, to control. The 

 recent skirmish at Ouchda was caused by the im- 

 petuosity of the native troops on first approaching the 

 French camp ; and a few days previously the French 

 garrison at Biskara, which the Due d'Aumale had 

 left without sufficient protection, was treacherously mas- 

 sacred. The movement is known to be the work of Abd- 

 el-Kader, who has so successfully inflamed the religious 

 fanaticism of the Moors, that the Emperor is said to 

 have been unable to resist the impulse given to his 

 people by the old enemy of France, and was, therefore, 

 compelled to proclaim the "holy war." If this be con- 

 firmed, there are reasons to hope that the mediation of 

 England, which Lord Aberdeen is understood to have 

 offered, will be accepted, and thus avert a war 

 which might seriously compromise the relations between 

 this country and France. — From Spain we have accounts of 

 the arrival of Queen Isabella and her mother at Barcelona, 

 and of the reception prepared for tbem by the citizens. 

 The Prince di Trapani was expected to arrive in a few 

 days from Naples, and as Sir R. Peel has announced in 

 Parliament that the project of marrying the Queen to 

 the son of Don Carlos has met with no encouragement 

 from our Government, there is little doubt that the Nea- 

 politan Prince will be a successful suitor.— From Ger- 

 many we learn that the long-expected death of the Due 

 d'Angouleme took place at Goritz on the 3d. The French 

 papers, including those opposed to his Royal Highness 



most illustrious families of Rome are compromised by 

 the late events, and that the spirit of disaffection is daily 

 becoming more alarming in the Papal States. According 

 to these accounts, the Prince Doria Pamfili, the Prince 

 Piombino, and other persons of rank, have been obliged 

 to leave Rome. If this statement be true, it proves, in 

 connexion with the recent desertions in the Austrian 

 Navy, that the discontent is widely spread through all 

 classes of Italian society. — From the United States we 

 have further accounts of the negotiation for the annexa- 

 tion of Texas, which now occupies the attention of 

 the Senate. A long correspondence had taken place on 

 the subject, and President Tyler, in answer to an inquiry 

 by the Senate, had admitted that his treaty with Texas 

 was negotiated without the knowledge or consent of 



Mexico. 

 The Emperor of Russia left England on Sunday, and 



is now probably in his own dominions, after a rapid 

 visit to the Court of Holland. For the particulars of 

 His Majesty's movements during the last week of his 

 residence in England, we must refer the reader to our 

 Home News, where ore also recorded the movements of 

 the King of Saxony, and of the two other foreign 

 princes who are at present visitors to our shores. — In 

 Parliament during the week there have been many sub- 

 jects of interest. In the Lords, on Tuesday, the 

 Government were defeated on the question of uniting the 

 ancient sees of St. Asaph and Bangor for the purpose of 

 creating a see of Manchester ; and the second reading of 

 Lord Powis's Bill to repeal so much of the Act of 1836 

 as provided for the union of those sees, was carried by a 

 majority of 12. On Thursday, Lord Monteagle brought 

 forward his motion on the Import Duties, with the view 

 of extending the principles of free trade, but the 

 motion was negatived by a majority of 109. In the 

 Commons, on Monday, Mr.* Ewart's motion for the 

 Equalisation of the Sugar Duties was negatived by a 

 majority of 203; and on Wednesday, Mr. Ward's 

 motion on the Temporalities of the Irish Church, after 

 two nights' debate, was negatived by a majority of 95. 

 On Thursday, the Bank Charter Bill was read a second 

 time, after a division on Mr. Hawes's motion against the 

 proposed interference with banks of issue, which was 

 negatived by a majority of 155. And this morning, at 

 2 o'clock, Ministers sustained their 2a defeat this w^ek, 

 by being left in a minority of 20 on the S ugar Duties Bill. 



~~ f^ome WttosT 



Court.— Her Majesty and Prince Albert, the Prince 

 of Wales, and the Princesses, arrived in town on Friday 

 from Windsor Castle, accompanied by the Emperor of 

 Russia and the King of Saxony. On Saturday evening 

 the Queen and her Royal visitors honoured the Italian 

 Opera with their presence, the Prince having previously 

 accompanied the Emperor of Russia and the King of 

 Saxony to the fete given by the Duke of Devonshire at 

 Chiswick. On Monday the Prince presided at the dis- 

 tribution of the prizes voted to the successful candidates 

 at the Society of Arts, and on Tuesday H. R. H. laid 

 the foundation stone of the new Hospital for Consump- 

 tion in the Fulham-road. On Tuesday evening the 

 Prince accompanied the King of Saxony to the Italian 

 Opera. The Queen during the week has taken her daily 

 walk in the Palace Gardens. It is announced that the 

 accouchement of her Majesty will take place at Windsor 

 Castle. Her Majesty is expected to arrive at the Castle 

 on Monday the 1st July, or the following day. Dr. 

 Locock, first physician-accoucheur to the Queen, will 

 proceed to Windsor in attendance upon her Majesty, 

 when the Court takes its departure from Buckingham 

 Palace. Dr. Locock will take up his residence in the 

 town during the period of his attendance upon the Queen. 

 It is expected that Sir J. Clark, her Majesty s &£*** 

 willtakeup his abode during his temporary ^o«r at Wind- 

 sor, at the official residence of the Rev.p.Markham, one of 

 the canons, in the Cloisters. The Duchess of Kent is ; ex- 

 pected to return to Frogmore House from . th /^° p "' 

 on the 1st July, by which time ^/^"^^"J 1 "! 

 in the interior of the mansion made by the order of the 

 Commissioners of Woods and Forests during the absence 

 of the Duchess will be completed. In consequence of 

 the superior salubrity of the neighbourhood north of 

 Hyde-park, more particularly as regards the health of 

 children and elderly persons, it is said to be m contem- 

 plation to purchase one of the houses on \V estoourne- 

 terrace, as a dormitory for the Royal infants during her 

 Majesty's residence at Buckingham -palace. 



The Emperor of Russia — The Emperor, attended 

 by Baron Brunnow, went on Saturday to the United 

 Service Club. His Imperial Majesty inspected the dif- 

 ferent saloons, and went all over the house, familiarly 

 conversing with those who attended him, and astonished 

 the cook in the kitchen by courteously asking him how- 

 he cooked roast beef ? The Emperor then proceeded to 

 the New Houses of Parliament, where he was met oy 

 Prince Albert and the King of Saxony. His Majesty 

 took the highest interest in the progress of the J™ r .^ 

 minutely examining the quality of the a tone ' ri 

 workmanship; and was much struck with tne ^^^ 

 and orderly procedure of the immense boaj ^^ fro ^

the French Court, it is said, will go into mourning on ascended the ^^^/^Xable distance upon the 



the occasion.-From Italy we have intelligence of a ^^^^ yf c toria gallery, examined the 



startling character, announcing that some of the unprotected walls of
