their r.nnholes at stated intervals, for the purple. an it were, of letting off their glasses sentents is their most intense form on all those whet yam by ties in the street; but now that time sums olive the the contents that were Mess* Wed in tho cesspool., the nuisance hes lissom mare than ever intolerable. A penmen with the slightest sense of sm ell might walk through thestreets of London blindfold , and point at the exact locality of these danger-valves of our streets. If the curious in these matters should not be able ter detect the nuisance in Regent-street we would advise them to direct their course over Trafalgar-square, and Jost in front of Northumberland -house they will find two most magnificent gall holes, which have lately never failed to warn oar nostrils of the dangers lark ing near. Over one of these precious holes all the ononbuees passing to and from the Strand always atop to take up and set down their Charing.- passengers. It would be an inquiry of som- interest to ascertain the exact number of omnibus passengers w have caught influenza, cos tinu d fever, or other symotic disease, front being thus freely exposed fur a few minutes to the pesu lendsl gases that are exhaled from this unclean mouth of the Strand and St. Martin's-lane sewers. Ti.o-e who understand the action of these vapours in tie air upon the piston will not for a moment doubt that they must tend most powerfully to main tain that peculiar condition of the atmosphere in which epidonic diseases are most rife. The exhalations of an ipi n sin a gully-hole. a dung-heap , an ash - pit , may not pro duce a op, rifle disease, but they will prothms a state of the system in which derange ments that are ordinarily trivial and easily cured become severe and fatal. They will not produce scarlet fever, or measles, or small-pox ; but persons living in their neighbourhood will more easily catch these diseases, and when they have eadAht them they are much more likely to die with them, If we have no evidence to show that such gases can ever produce cholera, we have abundant evidence to show that persons exposed to them are =IA likely to have cholera. We are not, then, so free fr..m liability to disease by living in large houses, in open streets, u some persons might be led to sup pose. The vapour of these gully-holes will find its way as easily into the air of a carriage as on the fool pith, and may be inspire-I from the open window of a palace as easily as in the street. The whole atmosphere of a city is quickly charged with each exhalations, and no one breathing it can altogether expect to escape its influence. The number who sutler fatally front this cause may perhaps be few, bat its effects, combined with other causes, may truly ascertained by the returns of the Registrar-General. Only a hundred deaths a week above the average, is the thought of many at glancing over the weekly bills of mortality; but supp ve this amount of death was the result of one of those " tee riblt steamboat accidents" for which the Loan MATO& is waiting for the purpose of correcting the overlading of the steamers on the Theme', would there not be a prodigious and immediate effort made to prevent it ? Would anybody think that any amount of money, trouble, or private interest, should be allowed to stand in ths way of the application of the needed remedies? We know this is an old tale, but not the lees true for its age, and we feel it to be one duty to go on telling it till semet , .ing really effectual is done for the removal of the clues of disease. What the sanitary commission is about we know not; they have annihilated the old commissions of sewers, but have done little themselves. During the sammer ot last year , when water was scarce, we bad the sewers flushed, and kept clean as far as post aisle ; but nothing of the sort Naos to have bean hag oseolus to this summer, surely not because the water was scarce. If half the water that has been anuses& wily slushed anon our streets from water-carts had been directed through the sewers we should not have had tJ complain of their present abominable condition. But something more than flushing and watering meat be done. These holes must be abolished altogethei. Thee is no lack of ways by which his may be draw and with the threatened visitation of cholera it is a matter of too much importance to allow of any further delay. We have watched with some interest, and no little ainuement, the effects of our exposure of that legal waste which the Durham clergy have been and are now committing in their cool and deliberate appro priation of the profits of the coals worked under church lands to their own private use and benefit, without providing for the spiritual wants of the work ing population which these mineral operations have congregated together in various parts of that diocese. The more irreverent of the laity evidently deem the expasure capital sport, while the more serious are in dignant that the proceedby of the church should in, this matter be as unjustifiable in law as they are nn warr listable in morals. Our statement of the cue of I "Knight v. Marley" has infused into the minds of the voungu and poorer clergy of the diocese a hope that, this serious alienation of the church's inheritance may attract the early attention of the legislature, and so be arrested : while to the older and richer clergy, I who are the delinquents, it has conveyed fear, appre hension, and shame. And well it may ; for not many hours of the next session of parliament will be allowed to elapse before a notice of a motion to bring the sub ct before the Moue of Commons will be given. NNothing now (humanly speaking) can prevent an ex amination into put waste and the prohibitio.i of future waste. The local &duvet.a of the offending clergy do not, so far as we have seen their defences, deny the law on the subject to be as we have stated it : they plead that in committing this waste with the minerals the clergy mart have acted in ignorance of the law. But as ignorance of the consequences is held to be no excuse for petty larceny, neither can it be tolerated when urged on behalf of a learned body of men for ecclesiastical waste. We are, however, inclined to doubt the excusatory allegation of ignorance, inas much as we find that the Durham clergy have from time immemorial been somewhat notorious for much, misappropriations of the church property committed to theirrastody. Lord Coal cites a ease so early as in 35 Edward L, in which a Bishop of DURHAM (" this was ANTONY Bea of that state and greatness es never bishop was,WoLsee excepted") was resteained. par breve de Cesacrilaria, from wasting the wade and pousesioaa of his see. The statutes of the dean and chapter of Madam, confirmed by the great seal 1 and 2 Philip and Mary, ordered that all sums derived from we lim property of the ancient niona-tery of hich it VIII. bad granted to that body, go into the common fund for the we and ne-ied of the church. And, by subsequent statutes elt this capitular body, **chief advocate of the clergy toile as that, " among other species of property, mime carbenum are expressly forbidden to be Issesi he a longer term than 21 years ; and, upon the warted of luau, all moneys, besides seal foes, not spesially or dered by theme statutes to be otherwise applied, shall go to the amnion nee of the thatch, in rapport of the ordinary expellees, and shall not be converted to the priede benefit of the dean and chapter, or any of them" In the reign of Ozoaos IL, Tale BOT, Bishop of Dunaut, actually applied to the legislature for fts sanction to the attack he was making on the church's mineral property and was flatly refused legislative permission. And, to lairds the close of the last century the proceedings of SHUTE BARRINGTON, Bishop of DURHAM, in cutting down timber, were °sulfured by the Court of Common Pleas, in the case of " Jefferson r. the Bishop GC Durham." In that eau the principal question was whether that court hod, on th- application of the plaintiff,•pereon not iuterested, jurisdiction to restrala the bishop from cutting down timber ; and it was decided that it had not. Bat even to so munificent a prelate as Dr. Beenteueoe, Chief Justice EYRE the raised the warning voice of the law : I need not my whether this application hr boa mob OE mere splenetic or on more worthy motives, nor Whoille tie Bishop of Durham in this instance, unintenticaelly avetakes,' may not have doge that which the law disease mid" even though it should turn out clearly that eke err entice of the see have been improved. nut amaily it is tact to be concluded that provided en twain tif swat revenues of the see is obtained, a permasst tau real property in woods may be utterly destroyed. Pew who know the hon. and right rev. prelate,who have been witnesses to the munificence which he has displayed in re• vairinr and beautifying the fabric of his church, of hls castles and his palaces, will suspect him of having intentionally wasted the power:aim of the see of Durham. At the same time it is by no means impossible that he, as well as many other churchmen, may unwarily have slid into this heavy ecclesiastics! offence, which all agree to be a cause of deprivation, and which may probably be found to ho also an injury cognisable by sense of the king's temporal courts. I do not at all regret the expense of time and trouble in this proceeding, since I cannot bat think it may be wo duetive of very good accts. It may awaken men's minds to the consideration of this sort of qtrstion; to which, at thi. time, it is cf importunes that they should be direetcd.

With the general state of the law so repeatedly and authentically declared as the foregoing extracts and references establish, we ma-t decline to give the bi,hope, the deans and chapter of Durham, or such of the parochial clergy u were interested 'in it, credit for ignorance that in allowing mines under church lands to be worked for their own benefit they were committing waste. It is indeed within the range of our own knowledge, that, at beet, some of the present incumbents were fully Warmed of the state of the law. And it is commonly reported that Archdeacon and Prebendary THORPE, MISER a great offender, not many yeses ago inquired of a mime delinquent by what authority he had leased the coals under his glebe , and that the reply was mach as pm. vented any rejoinder from the pluralist. But the Durham clergy have not the: excuse of ig norance now, at all events : they are now aware of the waste the y are committing ; they now know that ever' , penny they pocket from wetb worked under church lands is an illegal alienation of the church's property by the church's priest. Under such circum stances we shall be glad to be told how the Bishop, the Dean and Chapter, and the other clergy concerned are going to act. - - - FRANCE. FARIS, MONDAY. 11.30 am. The effect produced on the public mind by the socialist banquets, which take place from day to day in the capital and the dem:aliments, and more espe cially by the repetition of the terrible word " Guil lotine," with which the parties endeavour to fami liarise the public ear, begins to be serious. The Juurnal des Dtbats, which is remarkable for its moderation on all subjects, and its freedom from all spirit of exaggeration, gives to-day an article on this subject, and having also reference to the scene which took place on Saturday in the Assembly. The Munileur, which is under the control of the Ministry of the lotrrior, notices in the following man. ntr the horrible orgies of Toulouse, which were the immediate occasion of the scene which took place in the Assembly on Saturday On the 22 0 d of tis month the Prefect of the Haute cft. T ones and the Municipal C,tuseil presided at a pairiade manifestation, which wee celebtated at Toulouse, to maim morals the anniversuy of our first republic. TM aging guards were reviewed by the Prefect In the em mg there wee a banquet, at which Meat 4,000 persons were present. Everywhere the mat maMt mow acclamations saluted the authnides sad our young Republic. The met perfect order did not case to reign during this day amongst an immense assemblage of ista. bitants. ALL assembled with ace mamma and patristic object which exemplified itself by cries of " Vire la Ropubtique." Such is the manner in which the oficial journal speaks of the manifestation which the general in com mand of the district was forbidden to sanction by his presence, by the telegraph, and by the express order of General Cavaignac. The committee on t h e constitution decided yester day by a majority of 10 to 4, that the President should be elected by universal suffrage. During yesterday mach movement was observable in the palace of the Assembly, although being Sun day, there was no scdanoe. Conferens of represen tatives were held at the hotel of the presidency and at that of Gen. Cavaignac. In all public places, during the afternoon and the evening, groups were seen collected and holding animated discussions on the scene which took place in the Assembly on Saturday. A cabinet council was held at noon at the hotel of Ostlers' Cavaignac. The report of the resignation of M. Senard is still circulated and believed this morning. M. Mario , Minister of Justice , is reported to have decided on dismiriing the procureur-gsnerele who attended the banquet at Toulouse. ITALY. NAPLES.—Adviom from Naples have been re ceived to the 24th ult. It appears that the King, after first accepting the proposed intervention of England and France, and consenting to a suspension of hosti lities, subsequently retracted, and at the departure of the last letters the resumption of hastiUties wu hourly apprehended. Daring ten days the formal acceptation of the intervention wu regarded as spa accompli. The retractation, therefore, produced the most painful apprehensions. Formal and explicit inetructioes had arrived with Admiral Blain, who had recovered from his indisposition, and raised his flag on board the Friedland. Orders were, it is said, issued by the Ki of Naples for the immediate re commencement of • but no direct act of hos tility had yet takes pines. Letters from Rom ot the 24th have been received.

GERMANY. PRUBSIA.—The Berlin journals of the 30th tilt have reached us. The Krim mieunder stsoding between the throne and the coaititnest assembly being now removed, by the sew ca binet carrying out to a satisfactory extent the decision of the latter with reference to the dradar to the army, the anti-minieterialiste—taco who are more opposed to the men than to their eassoms•— have sought for and found new ground for debate, if not for another ministerial crisis. Unibrtanately, too, the King's name will be "gain prominently mixed up with the discussion, and in a !pestles, serener in which a great and humane pruiciple, one of general interest and importance, is at stake. It will be, per haps, recollected that several weeks ago, the National Assembly in Berlin passed a bill for the abolition of the penalty of death—a resolution which was hailed with juy by numerous philanthropists in various parts of Europe. That bill, up to the present time, has not received the royal sanction, and ministers have declared that, before coming to a final decision re 'pectin( it, they will await that of the constituent assembly in Frankfort. This is a remarkable decla ration, inasmuch as Prussia hitherto has not been over submissive either to the central parliament or to the central executive; and inasmuch, moreover, as the bill alluded to, although ene of uni v ersal interest, in a moral point of view, is not strictly an imperial question. The plain truth—and it may as well be spoken, or rather written —la that a certain high patronage is not pl with the bill, inasmuch as it destroys one of a his kingly preroga tives, the one so majatically . described in the " Mer chant of Venice " as "be coming the throned . monarch better than his &one."

The Indian insurrection of the Sierra Gorda had not been completely suppressed. Paredes was said to be among the insurgents. The insurrection of Mazatlan had been quelled. The leader of it, Palacio. Miranda, escaped towards Durango. Con gress was in session and apparently attentive to busi ness. The general aspect of things in the country was quiet. The cabinet of General Herrera seemed faithful and energetic. A Mexican schooner had arrived at New Orleans with news from Campeachy us late as the 27th of August. Yucatan has been, as we have already stated, reunited to Mexico, and the decree of union had been made public with great rejoicings. The whites have nearly.regained their ascendancy in the peninsula, and the treasury of Yucatan is to be re plenished by monthly instalments of 14,000 dollars each. The Courier and Enquirer says, in reference to 'commercial matters : The intelligence by the Europa has had the general effect, ammercielly, of depraing the price of breadetuffs, and of 1 1 giving more activity and ateadinets to the cotton market. The podia aspect of affairs, especially in Italy, was looked upon em more threatening. The American steamer United States, which should bring a day or two later news from the Conti , neat, is eagerly looked for. Our stock market was net affected by the European accounts, and remains much as it was at previous dates. Money is in steady demand, and at rates too high to encourage speculators' op , rations in fancy or other stocks. The receipts at the Custom House continue large—they averaged for the past week about 72,503 dole. a day. As the outgoings just now on account of the govern ment are not large, the consequence is, an undue and ma chievoos accumulation of coin in the vaults of the sub-treasury. There are now there above two and a quarter milli of dollars in coin, with out standing drafts against it of not more than 300,000 dollars. This state of things snoop and alarms the banks, which arc obliged to pay daily into this depose tory, which has no returning current, a large stun in coin, the only medium for the payment of duties.

The weather has been generally fine fur opening and picking since our last. New cotton is arriving very freely at the southern ports, and the opening price is lower than we ever knew it, especially in the interior markets. The last steamer (the Europa) has been deemed favourable to cotton, bonen she reported oorn down, and, accordingly, the operations in our market have been more extensive, both fur Liverpool and the continent of Europe, at a rally of fully one eighth cent per pound ; the market, however, is assum ing a quieter aspect, and it nothing arrives front Europe to prevent it, prices appear likely to decline to a lower level. The demand for foreign exchange is languid ;—the highest rates asked for sterling bills are 9f to 104, without finding many takers. Masan.

The overland mail from India arrived:this morning. The dates are from Calcutta to the 20th, Madras the 26th, and Bombay the 31st of August. This mail, together with the following passengers, left Bombay for Suez, by the steamer A.kbar, on the 31st of August Mrs. Scott and child, Mn.Clarkson and child, Kn. de Maguire and child, Captain George Gall, 6th M.L.C.; Lieut. L,rd Adolphus Vane, the Rev. George Candy, C. Thompson, Eq. ; Lieut. J. G. Soon, Major R. Vassal, Dr. A. Tawse, Lieut. H. B Patullo, Rev. W. K. Fletcher, Mr. G. A. Grainger, Rev. W. Clarkson, J. M. Davis,, Esq. ; Capt. Hill, A. J. Peen, Esq.; Bus. A. G. St. John Mildmay, and Bus. N. H. M'Grath. The troops under Major Edwardes were still be fore Mooltan. The Ferozepore force, of about 7,000 or 8,000 men, which the last mail mentioned as having been despatched to their support, wan hourly expected to join them, comprising two brigades of in fantry, some cavalry, sappers, and a siege train. Heavy firing bad been heard in the direction of Mooltan in the line of one of the columns. A Sikh auxiliary force was also on the march from Lahore. The Bombay government had countermanded the progress cf the troops previously ordered to proceed up the Indus to Mooltan, on the ground that they would not be required or would arrive too late. Native intelligence from the scene of insurrection, early in August, states that the inhabitants of Mool tan, having heard of the approach of the British troops, were quitting the place, and that the Dewan had in consequence built up the gates. The Overland Bombay Telegraph and Courier sus tains the following respecting the movements of the auxiliary column : Ths Ferozepore lend column of the Mooltan force crewed the river to Ganda Singwalla on the 23rd l e, and halted there on the two following days. This delay led to the report that probably the whole force would be recalled; but the ramose happily proved incorrect. The Lahore column (consisting of the 7th Irregular Cavalry • troop of Hone Artillery, and the 62nd and Bth Native In finny) marched on the 21st, end proceeded onwards without say protracted halt, expecting to effect a junction with her Majesty's 10th Foot on the 7tk August, and with the Ferose pore :column and siege train at a later date. The Delhi °Aught of the 16th inn. aye— Althea,* we have no de tails to give in our present issue, we an happy is say that the program of the troops towards Mooltan continues very favourable. Ne additional deaths had occurred, and a con siderable portion expected to be before the place this day or to-morrow. There is news by this mail of an insurrection of the Sikh troops in the mountain districts of the Hazerah, a province of the Punjanb. The first act was the murder of Colonel Canara, an European officer in the Sikh service. The Delhi Gazelle observes, in reference to this intelligence, that the im politic delay which had occurred in marching troops to Mooltan no doubt had led the insurgents to presume upon our weakness, under the belief that we were not in a position immediately to pat down rebellion. A circular letter from the editor of the Delhi Gazette, states that ;the insurrection in the Hazerah country was one of the Sikh troops, and not of the people ; that it had been instigated by the Sikh Governor Sirdar Chuttur Singh, Attareewallah, father of Rajah Shere Sing, and that an attempt to seize the fort of Attok was frustrated by the vigilance of Major Lawrence, who despatched 450 men to overawe the garrison. The outbreak at Kandy, in the Island of Ceylon, happily occasioning more alarm than actual damage, bad been completely suppressed by the local govern ment. Another remittance of 50 lakhs had, we learn, bean ordered for the account of the Ida Company, of which 30 lakhs are said to be from Bengal, and the remainder from Madras and Bombay. The exchange on bills in Bengal is said to be at a lower rate than ever was known before. The following is the summary of the Bombay Times : Mooltan has formed the great point of interest during the past three months, our last summary of the 19th ult. gave some abort detarli of the victory gained over the insurgents on the lit of July, by the united armies under Colonel Con landt and Lieutenants Bdwardes and Lake. The fugitives were completely scattered and driven within the walls; but the conqueren had no artillery tit for battering the fortress, TUESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 3, 1848.

AUSTRIA.—Wo have intelligence from Vienna of Sept. 27. The two leading topics of conversation just I wo are the quarrel of the reporters and journalists with the officers of the Constituent Assembly, and the advance of Jellachich on Pesth. The former have resolved neither to report nor to publish the reports of lb* debates in that assembly, because the committee et taimagemeat have cut off all personal communica tion' in the house between the reporters and the patios, on the ground that the latter, particularly the pasemes, were influenced by the remarks and sugges ting oldie former. The Ban of Croatia, according to letters from l'eeth up to the 24th inst., was still in Staldweinenburg, but he was daily expected in the Hungarian capital, where, however, an obstinate re sistance awaits him. Kossuth having, at that date, proclaimed a war of extermination—a war to the knife even—against the Croatians. No mem ber of the Diet is allowed to leave the city. There will be melancholy news in a few days from Hungary, unless the newly-appointed " royal pleni potentiary and Hungarian military commissioner," Lieut. Field-Marshal Count Von Lemberg (whom the Emperor has appointed to the post of commander-in shier of the troops in all the countries belonging to the throne of Hungary, Croatia not excepted), lam med in accomplishing his mission, which u, to effect • truce between the belligerent parties. Some of the Berlin journals state that the Moravian diet bas voted the abolition of at titles and all pri vileges of nobility, and has resolved that no more nobles be created. FRANKFORT. —The Oberpostanits 'Aunt, of the 30th announces positively that the repuulicau leader, Struve, had been tried by court-itartial and shot at Friburg.

I have not heard. The Herald° publishes three revolutionary documents which have fallen into the hands of the rveroment. The first is a letter from a gentlemen at Bayonne to the well known Boosts, an officer who headed the revolt of the 7th of May, and was, it seems, the main agent in the late subor nation of the garrison of Corunna. Narrowly escaping the pursuit of the Oallician authorities, he left his pocket-hook lo their hands full of papers, to which the gtvernmeut attaches great importance. The second is a proclamation to the in habitants of the Rioja. The third, a circular of %'icturiano Amettler to the aloaldes of Catalonia, demanding contribu. tie= and intelligence of the movements of the go ctnment troops. Col. Milano del Bosch and Senor Borinelos, prise PIT in the castle at Wig, have been banished to Porto Rico. The change in the destiny of Milani, who was condemned to be deported to the Philippines, was procured by his sister, who intercepted Nunes on his way to courted. 196 prisoners, chiefly political, marched from Madrid ti Seville, and there embarked on board a steamer, had reached Cadiz, and been transported to the arsenal of La Canso, that workyard of galley-slaves. Sancho del Aroo, editor of the Naeioreal, was arrested at Cadiz. The commandant of Hama flu discovered a Carlist plot, sad made many arrests. In Valencia a deposit of arms has been detected.

The Debate of Sunday says Some of our con temporaries yesterday publishid the following extract from the Times Our correspondent at Buenos Ayres sends as important news. Rosas has not only refused to receive Mr. Hood as Consul General from England, but ha said that M will reeafinise no British sent until England has paid fi vesul• lions of ti tres as indemnity Ibr the war and for gain from Paraguay and the Malouines Islands. Roses desires fa* thee to prevent all communication between the Argentine Tv public and the English and French ships of war.' This neri which comes under date July 29, and by way of Rio Janeiro. needs correction and commentary.
