At the Bourse, yesterday, railway shares in general took a favourable turn, owing to a report being pre valent that the government proposed to take all the railways into its own bands, paying the shareholders in Five per Cent. stock. The fact that such a propo sition should produce a favourable effect, shows in a striking manner the low ebb to which railway shares have fallen. The shares of the company of Belle Montagne, which, before the revolution, sold at nearly 6,000 trance, closed yesterday at 2,000. This company have been obliged to temporarily suspend payments. They have published a circular, declaring that, under present circumstances, they find themselves obliged to choose between that course and an interruption in the works of the establishment both in France and Belgium. The board of directors have in conse quence decided on declaring that they are ready to lay a statement of their affairs before each persons as they owe money to, and that the latter can then de cide whether they will renew their engagements for six months with immediate payment of interest thereon at 6 per cent.; or to exchange their claims against bonds in a loan which the directors have thought it necessary to contract. The amount of the loan is not stated, but it is believed to be about two millions of francs. The Minister of the I 'erior has addressed a cir cular to the governmen. commissioners in the depart ments, relative to certain points affecting the right of voting at the approaching elections. The residence of six months in a commune, required for the right of vote, is to be oonsidered as closing on April 9, the day of the election, and not on March 31, the last day allowed for inscription ; in like manner, the age of twenty-four years required for voting is to be considered as having the right to run on up to the very day of April 9 ; the gendarmerie are to be assimilated in their right of voting to soldiers or sailors; persons confined in prison under the charge of offences, but not found guilty, are not to be deemed deprived of the faculty of voting, inasmuch as the . law holds them innocent until found guilty ; but on the other band, as they cannot proceed freely to the place of voting, they are to be considered in the same position as citizens who from illness or other unfore seen causes cannot attend, and who consequently lose their right for the time being. The Petrie of yesterday evening says :—"The republic is proclaimed in l)utch Luxemburg, with the exception of the town of Luxemburg itself, which ! is under the cannon of the fortress. This news is official." Examinations prior to the prosecution of the ex ministers still continue, numerous witnesses are examined every day. They are principally the chiefs of the troops who commanded en the 22nd, 23rd, and 24th February. Several persons who were called to the Tuileries on the nights of the 23rd and 24th have also been examined. M. Jules Faire, one of the secretaries of the Pro visional Government, in an address to a body of operatives, yesterday, announced that the government wee preparing a grand fete, in the Champ-de-Mars, in which the army, the people, and all classes of citi zens, would, as in the first days of the glorious revolu tion, unite in sentiments of love of country and devo tion to the Republic. Yesterday an immense cortege of citizens, with a battalion of the 10th legion, and a battalion of the national guard mobile, planted a tree of liberty in the Champ de Mars. The curate of SO ierre de Groe Caillou, commenced the ceremony of benediction, when a rain bow appeared. " Children," cried the curate, " that is the sign of alliance that God, 4,000 years since, wade with his people. At the opening of a new and holy era, that is opened to us by the freeing of nations, let us salute the sign by which God renews his merciful alliance, and announces that he will bless our destinies." Another project scarcely less important is said to be entertained. It is proposed to collect in the Louvre' all the museums of art now dispersed in different buildings throughout Paris, so that the Louvre world become a collection as vast in extent, but infinitely greattr in value, than that of Versailles. t 11/OrdS PR17841A.-By the Cologne Gazelle of March 22, we have news from Berlin to the 20th inclusive. The Poles had been set at liberty, and had celebrated the event with a great triumph accompanied by the people. B kVARIA.-By the Gazette d'Augsbourg of the 19th of March we receive accounts from Munich to the 18th. The King had abolished certain seignoral rights. At 7 P.M. it was said the city had been a prey to considerable agitation during several hours. 10,000 were made patroles in the streets. A report was prevalent that a coup-dc-main had been arranged by some agitators, but that the townspeople would not sanction it, and had sent to the King declaring their devotion. It was said some strangers had pur chased arms and ammunition. The students and the troops were detcrmised to oppose all attempts at anarchy. The Baron de Vergen had been named to treat at Vienna and Dresden, in accord with M. Gagern and Lerbach, as to the national representation at the confederation. . . . ITALY.—By a letter from Rome we hear that they are suffering from the effects of the financial crisis of France. Genoa has withdrawn its credit from the Roman bank. Torlonia will not give money for any paper on Paris, even that of Rothschild. It is hoped thus will soon pass off. The Roman princes who are shareholders in the bank have declared it shall not suspend its payments, but the panic is great. It says a great misfortune has occurred, the head of the apostle St. Andrew has been stolen from St. Peter's, most active search is being made for it. The civic guard is applying itself to discover it with great zeal. The chapter of St. Peter's has offered NO piastres reward. LATEST FROM PARIS. REPORTED ABDICATION OF THE ICING OF BAVARIA. REVOLT IN LOMBARDY. [We publish, in another page, an article from the Daily 21'eses, upon the respective merits of cheap and dear newspapers, which notices a few of the various instances in which the former have been enabled not only to compete with, but to defeat, the gigantic com bination which has been formed against them. We have to-day a further illustration of the success of the Daily Netes,which published, in a Second Edition, this morning, intelligence of the revolt in Lombardy, and of the arrival at Paris of a telegraphic despatch, announcing the abdica'ion of the King of Bavaria, some hours before the same news appeared in any of the high-priced journals.] PARIS, THURSDAY, 5 PAL Another calamitous commercial failure has taken place to-day, the bank of I)'Eichthal and Co. has stopped. the house had a large German connexion, particularly with Munich, and its failure is considered to be the greatest commercial disaster which has yet occurred. All the Russians residing in or visiting nail bare received an order to leave it by to-morrow. Count d'Appony remains for the present, although his departure is expected. I have just learned that government has received a telegraphic dispatch, announcing that the King of Bavaria has abdicated ; no dates or other particulars are given, the telegraph being interrupted by weather. I learn also that despatches have been received in Paris, announcing the important fact that Lombardy is in high insurrection. It is stated that the movement commenced in Bergamo and Bresebia, and ensued at Milan ; it is added that the tri-colour flag was waving over the duo;no of the chateau. The following news, corroborative of the above, ap pears in the Resorgirnento of Turin : The Viceroy of Lombardy, having left Milan at 6 o'clock on the morning of the 17th, like a fugitive, escorted by 500 hussars, met at Cassano with the courier, who was the bearer of the latest news from Vienna. The following proclama tion wu posted up at Milan, on the 17th : " The president of the Imperial Government hutens to announce to the public the contents of a telegraphic despatch, dated Vienna, 15th inst., r, ceived at Zilli on the same day. and at Milan yesterday evening. His imperial and royal majesty bus decreed the abolition of the censorship, the speedy publication of a law on the press, and the convoca tion of the German and Slavonic states, as also the central congregations of the Lombardo-Venetian kingdom. The assembly will meet at the latest on the 3rd July next. (Signed) HARTL." On the 18th, M. Cassati. chief magistrate of Milan, went, at the head of two or three thousand persons, to demand the liberation of the individuals arrested in the course of the latter months. This demand having been refused the magis trate retired, end immediately the people assembled on the squares and hoisted the tricoloured flag of Italy (white, red, and green). Several streets were unpaved, and the tumult in creased. A traveller, who left at two o'clock, saw several pieces of artillery drawn out with lighted matches. At a short distance from Milan he heard the report of a cannon. Another account says that the Hotel of the Police was carried by storm and burnt, and a provisional government installed, under the presidency of the former Podesta Casati. At Brescia, a similar move ment broke out on the same day, and the insurgents made a prisoner of the Austrian general. The entire province of Bergamo was in revolt. The above news arrived late this afternoon, and was not generally known in Paris. Balinese at the Bourse was fiat; the Threes fell to 50, and the Fives to 70i ; Bank Shares, 1,630. The project of the government respecting the rail ways, which I mentioner, in my letter of this morn ing, is, I am informed, as follows : Government proposes to take into its own hands all the unfinished lines ; the shareholders will be re quired to pay up their full amount of capital, and will then receive five per cent stock at par. We have learned, from quarters the correctness of which can be relied upon, that the demonstration made on Friday at the Hotel de Ville, by the 20,000 operatives, was got up by the government, at the cost of 500,000 francs. Each operative was paid two francs, and the officers five francs. Notwithstanding the flattering reports issued daily i n the bulletins of the Ministry of the Interior, we learn that the proclamation of the republic has en countered the most formidable resistance in several of the departments and of the chief provincial towns. In tome of these it required all the despotic authority enforced by M. Ledru Rollin on his commissaries to get it proclaimed. It is said that a project is entertained for trans ferring the Biblietheque Royale, now called the Bibliotheque Nationale, to the luileries. It has been contemplated for a considerable time back to erect a new and more spacious building for the royal library, the old building being in all res pects unsuitable and insufficient. The Palace of the Tuileries would undoubtedly be a building worthy of each a purpose. By letters from Ems, we hear that the Duchess of Orleans was living there in complete privacy. Besides her two sons she had but few persons with her, amongst whom was the Count de Mornay. Her mother, the Duchess-Dowager of Mecklenburg- Schwerin, arrived on the Bth,to assist and console her daughter, who on her arrival was destitute of the commonest necessaries. Yesterday a grand demonstration took place in the Champ-tie-Mars. Great numbers of workmen, accom panied by innumerable flsgs, assembled around the "Tree of Liberty," which had been planted the previous day, and which the clergy of Gros Caillou had conse crated. In compliance with the wish expressed by a deputation who waited on him, M. Ledru Rollin, Mi nister of the Interior, went to the Champ.de-Mars, and addressed the people. He thanked them in the name of the Provisional Government, in the name of France, and in the name of the whole world, for having had the idea of renewing on that spot the great souvenir of the federation of 1790, when France, divided into castes, aristocracies, and provinces, came, on the appeal of the people of Paris, to abjure on the altar of the country old hatreds and divisions, in order to form henceforth only one people, the French people. There was, he said, another souvenir, that of the Champ - de -Mai, when the people, threatened by foreign invasion, rose with indignation to defend their nationality. At that time Europe, being deceived by its rulers, believed that they intended to in vade it, and the French had Waterloo. But that day they at wend the sublime reply by sending it liberty ! A "s !mentioning the effect caused by the revolution in German" and in Austria, and after stating that other nations would follow their example, M. Ledru-Rollin said : We have the right to be proud, for to the defeat of Water loo we have only to oppose a cry of deliverance and liberty ! Salutation to thee, 0 Tree ! glorious symbol of that deliver ance and that liberty! Salutation to thee ! I predict it with joy—in this place in which sixti years ago people came to fraternise in the name of liberty—ta this pleas we shall soon 490.] LONDON, FRIDAY, MAR. 24, 1848. [THREEPENCE. Around thee will come to group themselves, united in a common embrace and a common love, the members of the great human family, who have been so long divided, and who will be emaciated by the great French family in their liberty and triumph ! M. Ledru-Rollin then recommended the workmen to return to their labour, to the cry of " Vice la Repub lique!" The cry was immediately echoed by the crowd, and shouts of " Vice Ledru-Rollin!" were also heard. An old invalid, who had belonged to the republican armies, seized the minister's hand, and pressed it to hie heart, but his emotion wan so great that ho could not utter a word. An officer then advanced, and, with tears in his eyes, expressed the pain which was felt by officers and soldiers at being kept away from Paris, and requested that the army might be forthwith recalled. M. Ledru- Rollin protested with all his strength against the distrust which had been shown towards the army. It was not, he said, possible to divide the people and the army. " The people," said he, "is the army, the army is the people. Is not the army the most gene rous portion of the people, the blood of our blood? Glory to the army! Did it not remember in February that it was of the people, and did it not refuse to fire on them ? " The minister concluded by saying that there ought to be no more suspicious, no more distrust with respect to the army ; and that for his part he would not be content until he should have seen the army, the national guard, and the people fraternise in a proud banquet on the Champ-de-Mars. On leaving the spot, M. Ledru-Rollin was followed by a nume rous crowd, shouting, "Vive Ledru-Rollin ! Vice la Republique!" At five o'clock yesterday afternoon a numerous body of workmen, headed by a military band, stopped at the Ministry of the Interior,on their way from the Champ-de-Mars. The band executed the " Chant du Depart," the " Marseillaise," and the " Chceur des Oirondins," in the court-yard. On their conclusion, the people cried, " Vice la Republique !" " Vice Ledru Rollin!" M. Jules Fevre, secretary-general of the ministry, then came forward end thanked the people in the name of the minister. After exhorting them to be peaceful, he proceeded to notice the distrust which was felt towards the army. That distrust, he said, was natural at first, but at present it was unjust. Was it possible, he asked, that any one could suppose that there existed any idea of employing the army against the people? He con eluded by calling on the people to cry with him" Vice l'Armhe!" The people immediately shouted, " Vive rArmee ! Vive le l'euple !" M. Favier then announced that the government was preparing a grand tete to be celebrated in the Champ-de-Mars, " which," he said, " would, as in the first days of our glorious revolu tion, unite around the alter of the country, the army, the people, and all classes of citizens, with the same sentiment of love to the country and devotedness to the republic." Numerous cries of " ice la re publique ! Vice Ledru Heflin !" greeted this an nouncement. The crowd then proceeded to the ' Hotel de Ville.

The King of Sardinia has published a general am nesty for political offences. A letter from Rome of the 11th says :—" We feel the contre-coup of the financial crisis of France ; Genoa has withdrawn its credit at the Roman Bank ; Tor tonia gives no money on Paris, not even on Roths child. This crisis, it is hoped, will only be temporary; and the Roman princes, who are shareholders in the bank, guarantee that they will not allow it to suspend its payments ; bat the panic is great, and every bo dy desires to withdraw his funds." M. de Rothschild has subscribed 100,000 florins towards the equipment of the national guard of Vienna. The domain of Prince Metternich, the famous castle of Johannisberg, has been sequestered by the government of Nassau. The cellars are richly stored ; they are put under seal. It is said the reason is the non-payment of arrears of certain duties for thirty three years. CHINA.—The Journal des Debate says that it has received their papers and correspondence from China up to the 29th of January. No event of the least political impor tanee bad occurred since the departure of the last courier. The negotiations lietwsen the Viceroy and the Governor of Hong-Kong wire still being carried on, the correspondi nee up to th►t time not having produced any satisfsetory result. Sir John Davis had, in an official proclamation, even an neunced to his countrymen, that having referred to the British government the question whether or not he should proceed to active measures for insuring the punishment of the murderers who committed the assassinations at Houng chu-ki, he thought that it was absolutely necessary to warn them in the meantime to be prepared to quit Canton at a • moment's notice. RESPITE OP THE CONVICT DAWSON.—The follow ing is the copy of a letter addressed by Sir George Grey to the High Sheriff of Durham, contai&ng a respite for the convict William Dawson, who was capitally convicted at the late assizes, and left for execution:—" Whitehall, March 22, 1848.—Sir : I am to signify to you the Queen's commands that the txeeation of the sentence of death passed upon William Dawson, now in the gaol of Durham, be respited until farther signification of her Majesty's pleasure.—l am, Re., G.

" JAMSS CLAIM, "Xi:L(BLn LOCOCR, "ROBERT FERGUSON. " Her Majesty's recovery is so far advanced that no more bulletins will be issued." ATHENS, MARCH 10. The ministry has at teat brought forward the budgets for 1847 and 1848. The total receipts for 1847 amount to 12,626,434 drachmas ; the expenses for the same year are 17,421,602 drachmas, leaving a deficiency in the year of 4,795,168 drachmas, There are, besides, 305,690 drachmas to be added, for the expenses of diplomatic agents, not included in the budget for 1847. The estimated re ceipts for 1848 are calculated at 14,888,000 drachmas. Add to this 3,835,743 to be advanced by the three powers, and 610,504 to be raised from " extraordinary resources," and you will have a total revenue for 1848 of 19,333,977 drachmas. Of this inoome 5,381,197 drachmas go to pay off the interest and loans from Rothschild, the three powers, and Eynard. 399,595 drachmas are swallowed up in pensions. The civil list takes 1,000,000 more. The ministerial departments amount to 10,100,050. All these combined with the expense of the legislative body, indemnities, etc., exactly provide for the amount calculated to be raised to a drachma. There is not a word about paying off the deficit of 1847. SHIPPING. MAILE ARRlVED.—nublia. 3; Waterford.2; Donagha dee, 1; Guernsey and Jersey, 1 • French , 1; Flanders, 1.

Two o'Clock—A second edition of the Daily News, with important intelligence from Paris and Germany, to last evening, and the lastpricesof the French rentes, was in the City this morning at a quarter before tie o'clock, more than two hours before any other morning paper made its appearance with news of the same import, and to the same point of time. This was justly reckoned as an instance of very extraordi nary dispatch, and has given much satisfaction in City circles, more especially on the Stock Exchange, where such early information is highly appreciated and of great service. The failure, or suspension, of the great banking house of Eichthall and Co. of Paris, communicated by this dispatch, has created much uneasiness here, from the extensive relations and very high standing of the house. It was the great Paris banking firm for Germany, and has, it is said, corresponding branches at Augsburg, Carlerhue, and Munich. From Belgium we learn that the Bank of Antwerp had resumed its discount business, so tar as for bills at 45 days' date upon Belgium, but not beyond. It was urged by the mercantile community that, to afford any really useful degree of accommodation, the limit should be extended to 90 days. Petitions were signing at Antwerp, Ghent, and other principal cities, strongly protesting against the loans (called forced) now being raised by the government. The veports from Paris published, as said, in a second edition of the Daily News, rather depressed Consols. They declined to 82 to 1, but have since gradually recovered, and now are 83 to 1 for time and money. Exchequer Bills, 28s. to 325. pre mium.

BANHCHT, March 23.—Our farmers at this market to-day, influenced by the rise in London, requiring an advance on Wheat, to which the millers were little inclined to accede, the trade on the whole must be considered dull, though in some few instances at an advance of la per qr. Barley, ls. to 2s. per qr. higher; other articles aa last quoted. The following are the pricee:—Wheet, 6s. to 61. 9d. Barley, 295. to 345. Beans, 4s. 6d. to 6s. Oats, 225. to 275. BIRMINGHAM, March 23.- During the present week few transactions are reported in Wheat, and, where Wee have been made, holders accepted former rates. Fine Barley ra ther dearer; grinding qualities neglected. For Oats we have a fair consumptive demand, at a reduction of 6d. per qr. Irish Beans, Is. per qr. higher; other descriptions as before. Peas unsaleable. We have • fair retail sale for Tares, at daily receding prices. This day's market was largely supplied with English Wheat, for which an advance was gene rally demanded, but no improvement could be realised. Fine Barley, 6d. to Is. per quarter dearer; other qualities diffi• cult to dispose of. Oats, about 6d. per quarter cheaper, with only . a retail demand. English Bean, lower, but other kinds maintained their value. In Peas and Tares nothing doing. Present prices of grain : Wheat, English, white, per bushel of 621b5., 6e.

BRIGHTON, March 23.—Our market to-day was firm; and millen exhibited more desire to purchase than ►as been exhibited for some weeks. Wheat was in good demand, at Is. per qr. advance from this day se'nnight. Barley was very scarce, and malting samples were cleared off at a rise of le per sr. from last Thursday.

Peas, 35a. to 365. BatsvoL, March 23.-The wet weather of the past week has much interfered with farming operations, and the prospect of growing crops would be affected by its continuance. With no foreign arrival, our receipts coastwise and from Ireland are moderate: 1,260 qrs. Barley, 1,230 Oats, 290 Wheat, 430 sacks Flour. We had a full attendance at to day's market, but not much business done, at last week's prices. English Wheat, 48s. to 535. per imperial qr. ; foreign, red, 44e. to 51s. per 4801b5.; white, 52e. to 651. Seconds Flour, 365. to 38s. per sack.

The supply of Wheat was moderate, and the condition, although somewhat better, was far from good ; at the commencement of the market the demand was brisk, and tales were readily effected at frem Is. 6d. to 2s. a quarter above last week's prices, but towards the close the trade became dull, and somewhat lower prices were taken ' • a good clearance, however, was made. Barley was in good supply, and sold very freely, at an advance of from Is. to 3e. a quarter, everything being sold ; the top price was 40s. 6d. per qr. In Oats, Beans, and Peas, no alteration. Wheat, white, per quarter, 54e. to 58a.; hest red, 635. to 675.; middling, 46e. to 634.; inferior, 40s. to 445. Barley, 28s. to Ms. Oats, 216. to 26e. Beans, old, 425. to 60s. ; new, 40s. to 465.

FAHNHAY, March 23.—The supply of Wheat this day was limited ; fine samples were in demand, and realised an advance of from 2e. to 3s. per qr. over the rates of last week. The Barley trade was good, and fine samples of malting anci seed qualities were inquired for, and upon such an advance of 2s. per qr. was obtained. Wheat, 121. to 151. per load. Barley, 301. to 365. per qr. Oats, 201. to 265. Peas, 38s. to 425. Beans, 38.. to 425. OAINSBOROUGH, March 21.—Owing to the tempestuous weather, we bare had a small attendance of farmers to-day, and the business transacted was very limited. The prices of Wheat were in favour of the seller, at higher rates. Wheat, white, 5.55. to 575. ; red, 545. to 5.55. per qr. Barleys were held at higher prices, and only a small amount was offering. Flour es last week. Locru,March 22.—There was a small business transacted in Corn to-day, with the prices for all descriptions looking up. Wheat must be quoted Is. per quarter higher. Wheat, 475. to 555. Baxley, 2bs. to 30s. Oats, 18e. to 21s. Beans, 424. to 45e. ---• Marherons, March 23.—We had to-day a slow trade for Wheat, in consequence of higher price* being oemanded, and the samples of the greater part being so out of condition. Fine red Wheat sold at 63a. to Me. ; and other sort', 48s. to 51s. The trade for Lent corn was unusually dull, and prices are quite nominal. MAX24INOTIIRE, March 23.

At the commencement high prices were demanded, which checked the sale; but the whole was eventually cleared off, at en advance of Is. to 2s. per qr. on the rates of this day week. South country and foreign also participate in the like improvement, with a good demand. Barley meets with more inquiry, at (u 1 prices. Oats were a small supply, and former rates maintained.

Lassaics, March 22.—Tkere was a very large supply o Wheat in market this day, which caused the price to go down one halfpenny per stone. Towards the close of the market tellers had to submit to a still greater reduction. Many par cels were stored by the farmers—a very prudent step, wo believe, as the accounts from London this morning note k 2s. per qr. advance.

WATERFORD, March 22.-Our market has been scantily supplied with grain rinse Saturday last; nevertheless, the trade has ruled excessively dull for all articles, at former prices.

GLASOO w, March 22.-The imports to the Clyde, owing to the prevalence of contrary winds, have been quite trivial the principal item since this day week being 3,420 bade Oatmeal from Ireland ; and the only arrivals at Orange. mouth of any consequence are 3,170 qrs. Barley coastwise and 1,130 ire. Wheat from the Baltic. Without tke lane salutation in the trade, there has been a steady, moderate consumptive sale for all the principal kinds of grain, as well as for the manufactured snacks of Flour and Oatmeal, at rather firm prices. Indeed, Barley has been sold 6d. per boll above last week's rates, but Beans and Peas have remained unnoticed. At this market, which was only moderately attended, there was a fair retail demand br Wheat as well as Flour, at the prices of lest week. Oats, from the paucity of fresh supply, maintained previouar etas; but demand was by no means quick, and Barley q. sap. ported the advance noted above. A few sales occurred is Beans and Peas, at fully 6d. per boll decline. Oatmeal was without change in value.

CATTLE, &c.—SMITHFIELD, Two o'C7oc4.—Our supply of Beasts to-day is larger than of late ; the demand is very limited, owing to the dull trade at the dead markets. Sales are very slowly effected, and, although 4s. Bd. is, in a few instances, obtained for every choice Scot, it is an extreme price, and cannot be quoted as average of the best qualities. Inferior kinds are decidedly lower, and several remain un sold. From Holland we nave about 160; from Scotland 200; Ireland, 70; and about 160 Milch Cows from the home counties. We are very scantily supplied with Sheep; the best qualities are readily disposed of at Monday's quotations, but second-rate meets with a dull sale, and late rates are barely supported. Shorn Sheep are more in request, and make from 4s. Bd. to ss. There are some very good Lambs on offer to-day; a few choice ones from the Isle of Wight making 6s. to 6s. 6d. Trade is more cheerful for Calvess; a good one makes se. 4d. without difficulty. The demon/ for Pigs is not very brisk. Prices remain about the same. Per am. of Bibs. a. d. ad. Per nose of Ma. ad. 4.

Purchases were su gently made at prices very little in fasour of the buyers. f Sheep we had a very diminished supply, which brought prices equal to those of last week ; we may quote them, for Beef, 54d. to 6d. per lb., and for Mutton, 7d. to 81d. per lb. lumber of Babas 1,027 ; Sheep, 2,772.
