Colonel Campbell, who arrived from South America on We(lncsday evening, transacted business yesterday with Mr. Planta, the Under Secretary of' State for Foreign Affairs, in Downing-street. Mr. Littlewood, a King's messenger, arrived at the Foreign-office on Tuesday, with despatches from Lord Granville, at the H I . 'fhe Duchess of ient was at Covent-garden Tlheatre on NVedrnesday evening. The town of Gravesend is about to be lighted with gas. Extract of a letter from Washington, dated 25th Sept. last:-" The following gentlemen have been appointedl Vice-Consuls of the Brazilian Empire in the United States of North America; and their appoiniments having been approvedl by the PrRsident, 'with the accustomed solem- nities, thev have entered on the exercise of their func- tions:-T. Filder, Esq., Boston; Herman Bruen, Esq., lNew York: James Morrell, Esq., Philadelphia; and Chris- topher Neale, Esq., Alexandria." The account in an evening paper of the arrival in the Downs of the Columbus, from Quebec, must be incorrect, as intelligence has been receivedl from the Agents to Lloyd's at Deal, dated half-past six o'clock on Wednesday evening, at which time she had not arrive(d there; and had she since reached that anchorage, or eveni to the westward of Dover, we are assured that the information woul(I have been sent to London by express. 'Ilie anxiety of the parties con- cerned in this immense ship, and the public at large; will no doubt, in a few days, be relieved by her arrival, or some account of her. MIr. FAUNTi.sEaOi.-AbOttt seven o'clock yesterday even- ing the Londoni Grandt Jury, as will be scen on reference to the report, entere(t tha New Court and presented five true bills of in(lictmcnit against Henry Fauntleroy, for forgcry. It is now placed almost beyond a dloubt that the trial will take place at ten o'clock on Saturday morning, and that if any application shouikl be ma(le to the Court on the part of the assignees to postpone it, such aplitcation will certainly prove unsucce.ssful. The defence of Mr. Fauntleroy will be colndtuctecl by Mlessrs. Gurney, Alley, Brodrick, and Plhil- lips. It is understood he has been servedl with notice of the timne appointet foIr his trial by the Bank solicitors. Several correspondents have expressed a wish that IMlr.

A curious scene has been exhibitedl at a meetitig of the Galway branch of the Irish Bible Society, held last week. His Grace the Archbishop of Tuanm took the chair, and two clergvmen, supporters of the institution, were heard it commendation and fumr. therance of its ob;ect. A Ronman Catholic Clergyntan, tiamed Daly, now presented hiniself, but the Archbishop pereiimptorily refused .o hear from him a word. Clamour and confusion ef course ensued. A motion was made to remove the Archbishop from the chair, which lie refused to put, but at last abdicated and retreated, anti the place of meeting was surrounded by a tmilitary force of the 1Jth Hussare. The assembly, however, did not disperse, the chair w3a taken by a Protestant Barrister, atid several resolutions, niiovcd by Protestant gentlemen, were put and carried. Thc resolutions were, in sub- stattec, condemnatory of the Right Rev. Chairmnan's conduct ; com- plained of the calling olhe armsed force, but bore tcstimony to the -ood conduct at' the troops; and lastly, dntounced as miischievous the proceedings of Site Hlberniamt Bible Sosicty. Ve shlould atldd titat an address to the LJord l,ieutenant on the calling ont of the military was also agreed to, and forwatded to Dublin. On WVednesday inornin%-, about two o'clock, a soldier was observed walking to and fro asong the Chelsea New-road, occasion- all)' exclaiming, at intervals, " Ott, Mary ! cruel, faithless wo-. man !" and, suddenly turning out of' the road, drew a cavalry pistol from under his jacket, and lodged the contents in his bosom. He was found by those who were attracted by the report, lyitig on his face; and on being carrled to a surgeon, the wound was pronounced mnortal. The unfortunate man was recognized by nome fellow sol- diers as belonging to the 7th Light Dragoons. Thr cause of the desperate act was said to be a love-affir, in which it appeared, that a girl to whomn he was attached had declined his overturc8, in favour of another.
