      The East . —The annihilation of the opium trade with China will deprive the Fops of our " Ipj a * Empire" of nearly two millioni a year of annual revenue . As the Chinese Government menaced the liberties , and even th * lives of oar profit-hunters , these worthies were under the necessity te give up opium to the value of two millions sterling . For this amount our adventurers at Bombay have peti . tioned th « Government . Here is-tae plain English of their petition :- " We , her Majesty ' s profit-mongenng subjects have , for a long time , been driving

      un a contrapand ana most lucrative trade with China , at the expense of tie health and morals of the Chinese nation . The Government of that country tinding we w « uld n » t desiist , by fair means , seized our pereona , and clapped us into vile durance , and before we got out we had to give up all in our possession of tbe smuggled article . Now a loss of two millions has been sustained , and we humbly submit that the working men of England have a better right to bear this loss than we have . We , therefore , trust that her Majesty ' s Government will take steps to remunerate us out . of the taxes of Great Britain . " We have not the slightest doubt bat " her Majesty ' s Government" will lend a favourable ear to this modtst request .

      A HORRIBLE , FRATBICTDB took place at Sfcteron a few days ginee . A farmer named Bruu havmg , according to the custom in that part of France , left a considerable part of hi » property to his eldest aon * Joseph ., to the exclusion of his brother John , the latter Jay in ambush as his brother was proceeding with his mother to a farm which had been leased to him during the life of his father , and shot him in the breast . He then proceeded to th « farm in question , where he shot his sister-in-law . . Not satisfied with this double crime , he began to abuse his own wife , who happened to be oa the spot , and reloaded his gun with the intention of shooting her also , but wa * prevented by the neighbours , and fltd to the neighbouring mountains , since which ume he has not been heard aU—Galignani ' s Messenger .

      The Courritr du Midi » f Montpelier representa the whole district aloBg that shore of the Mediterranean ^ hayh g Buffered so severely from drought , that the ears of corn have withered before they came to maturity , and that the crops must be mowed for litter . The luzerne and other artificial g > asses hav « almost entirely periihed on the ground , the * olives have been burnt up as eoon as they were formed , and lay in blackt-ned heaps under the trees .

Next night a similar catastrophe was repeated in a more tremendous degree , when the flood was so powerfulthat it tore up the pavement , tilling ^ the cellars , and even forcing its way through the lower windows in the streets . Many houses , walls , bridges , and trees , were earned away , placing the lives of the inhabitants in tne utmost peril , though it is not stated that any were lost . As late as the morning of the 25 th , the watar stood in the streets and houses to a height of six or aevea feet . °

      A LETTER FROM TbIPOLI , dated July 18 says— " Almost every day the Pasha exhibits some proof of hia hatred towards the Europeans , and invent * all sorts of cruelties and annoyances against them .

      Alarming Firr . —A fire took place a few day * ago at Semur , in ihe Cote d'Or , from a very unusual cause . An inhabitant of one of the Faubourgt having to root np some old trunks of trees foi winter fuel , placed gunpowder , in them as the raotf expeditious mode of accQmpHishiBg his object , and then blew them tip .
