The ministerial journal, E! Herald°, says that it does not believe either that the cabinet thinks of dis solving the Chambers, in which it expects a large majority, nor that, in the contrary case, would it dissolve the Cortes. Rather than do so, and expose the country to the consequent dangers, the ministry would retire ; but, adds that journal, these forbodings prove at least one thing, that the Government does not exercise in the elections the moral violence ascribed to it, and that the contest in the electoral arena is free. _ _ .

The enthusiasm manifested throughout the States of the Church in favour of Pius IX., continues to augment as the measures proceeding from Rome are successively proclaimed. It was lately announced that a decree for the diminution of the tax on salt, and the duty on corn-grinding, was in preparation. In Romagna, the local magistracy have been, in many instances, selected from among the Li berals. Of those confined under sentence for political crimes, some have had their sentences com muted, and others have been set unconditionally free. Several French and other foreign journals, the entrance of which into the states had been hitherto forbidden, are now permitted. Nor is the spirit of clemency limited to the Liberal party. The inhabit ants of the Borgo de Faenza, who some weeks ago committed excesses against that party, have been amnestied merely with an admonition from the Secre tary of State that a second offence will be atteuded with inevitable punishment. Patrols of the citizens have been established in the town, and the nocturnal aggressions which before disgraced them have ceased as if by enchantment. NEW CTIRISTpanu BOOK, RY MR. ICKENS.

A great shock was given to the local trade at first; but the writer represents it as reviving when he wrote, and placed upon a firmer basis. Alum he describes as "an honest man and a fool." The Europeans confiding in his integrity, transacted business with him exclusively. He rashly took all that offered ; purchased whole ship-loads of skirtings at 2doll. 90e. to 2doll. 70c., and pawned them at Soochew for half the price to buy the very teas which he sold to our merchants. This could not last : his fall came Rot unexpectedly, but earlier than it was looked for. Many were pinched in consequence, but the lesson has been use ful. Instead of dealing with one man only because he has the reputation of being honest, men deal with hundreds, some of whom are not very honest. The conse quence is that the greatestcircumspectionis observed, and the English merchants do not part with their goods until the teas, or silk, or sycee, is forthcoming. Less is bought .d sold, but the whole trade is real, not nominal, as formerly. Notice is taken in the same letter of a cruise by H. M. S. Wolf, at the request of the Shanghai mandarins, in search of a vessel, said to be European, which had attacked a Chinese, about the mouth of Heang-ho, and killed eighteen of the crew. The search was fruitless. The Wolf approached very near the coast of Corea, but was deterred from proceeding thence to the nearly unknown mouth of the Yellow River by thick fogs. LATEST IN THIS DAY. Four o' Clock. NORWICH AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR NOVEM BER.—The weather at the beginning of the month was most favourable for the completion of Wheat sowing; for the soil having received plenty of rain, took the seed from the drill with less expenditure of labour than is usual at this period of the year. The temperature throughout has been unusually mild, and so suited to rapid vegetation, that the Wheat ap peared very quickly above the ground, and is now looking extremely healthy and getting strong in plant, yet not too forward to bear safely the rigours of winter. A large breadth has been sown this year after Beet Root, Carrot, and Potato. Upon the whole, there is good promise for the future Wheat crop. Turnips were early attacked by mildew, which checked their grovrth,partienlarly on the light soils ; on the deep looms and in the rich districts they have very much recovered them selves. The crop is altogether inferior to that of last year, and below the average of excellence, so that a much greater breadth is required to support the same number of cattle and sheep than in more productive years. Mangle Wurale haa yi e lded generally a heavy crop, cf fine quality, which is mostly well secured. The same is the case with the Carrot crop, especially in regard to the Belgian root. In some in stances the Carrots are equal in value to the price of the land producing them, and their abundance serves in some measure to make amends for the deficiency of the Turnip crop. The price of store Cattle has bee n high through the north, which leaves the farmer in doubt whether the price of the Beef in the ensuing March, April, and May will be suffi ciently high to afford him compensation for extra oe' lay for such artificial food es Linseed Cake, de. The value of Shearlings and Lambs is very high, considering the state of the Turnip crop ; and it is expected that if the winter be at all seve, a considerable fall must take place in the prices of all kind er s of store cattle and Sheep. The only check upon such a fall is the state of the Hay crop, which:throughout the country is ir o - 2 abundant, and of a quality that has not been surpassed fa the last forty years. The price of corn the and meat offers a cheering prospect to the occupation of soil, especially after the gloomy forebodings during the last year, in consequence of anticipated free trade. It is already found here that free trade in the prime requisites of life, does not, of necessity, mean ruinous prices; and it is confidently hoped that' t he e be industrious farmer, possessing due skill and ctal, will able to realise a sufficient amount of profit to compensate him for his labour and outlay, without the aid of that protec tion which has been called " the bane of agriculture and the ".ht of commerce." Oar foreign express received this morning Paris papers and letters of Thursday. The leading articles in the principal London jour nals of Monday , and more especially those in the Daily News and Times, became te subect of lively discussion in all the political circles j n Paris, and engrossed almost exclusively the attention of the press on Wednesday and Thursday. Throughout all these discussions, whether oral or printed, there is one point in which no difference of opinions exists, and thatis the imperious necessity of re-establishing and maintaining the English alliance, a necessity imposed not merely in the interests of France but in those of Europe. In the expression of this opinion the journals of the court and cabinet are not either more or less vehement than those of the different sections of the Opposition. In a word, no ministry could stand an hour in the face of the French pe o p le at present which would oppose that policy. The Journal des Dames of Thurs day devotes its leading article to this subject. Among the suspicions which have been into growing opinion in Paris, is that expressed more openly by the Eng lish journals, that although the Minister of Foreign Affairs may be acquitted of connivance in the de struction of Polish independence, a higher personage concealed b e hind him cannot so easily be absolved from such a charge, and that, after all, the Spanish dower has been bought by the sacrifice of Cracow. The Constitutionnel, quoting the article in the Daily News of Monday, says that the advice which it gives to the Cabinet of the Tuileries will not be very accordant with its taste, and that it will not be very prompt to abandon, at such a suggestion, its re trogade policy, and assume the liberal course recom mended by the English journalist. The Siecle, rotieing the a tree article, complains t'aat from the language and argument used by English writers and statesmen, it would seem as if England her rlf had not signed the treaty which guaran teed the independence of the republic of Cracow, and that England was a mere spectator looking on to see how France would act in the business. We answer, says La Siecle, neither for M. Guizot nor the court, but does not the Daily News know that France ardently desires that Italy should be eman cipated from the tyrannical dominations of Austria, but by what means is her deliverance to be effected. The Daily News seems think that our ideas and our example would be sufficient; but these ideas, to effect anything, must be permitted to pass into Italy; whereas neither books nor journals will be allowed to pass the Alps. The C'ouner Francais gives the following : report was spread on Wednesday evening in Pis that &movement bad taken place in Cracow, and that apart of the city bad been in flames. We do not pretend to guarantee the truth of thisreport, but in the present situation of Cracow no act of despair is improbable. The fli , rue Nourelle, which appeared in Paris on Wednesday evening, contains an article upon the present state of politics, in which, while it denies that any modification in the Cabinet is intended, intimates that measures of a decisive character, con sequent on the coup d'etat of the northern courts, are in contemplation. "On this point, the French government is," says La &rue Nouvelle, "if we are rightly informed, still in the preliminary stage. It is desirous of making a manifestation which shall amount to an ode, and everything leads us to believe that M. Guizot, who from the first day was decided as to the spirit of the measure is now closely occupied with its form . This, which will be ' a real event, will not be long delayed." The visit of Lord Palmerston to the Count Month molin, especially in the terms announced in the Post, has created some sensation in the financial and poli tical world, the Legitimist party desiring to magnify it into a syrnpton of a change in the relations be tween England and the pohtical parties in France and the Peninsula. The amount of specie in the Bark of France, which was reduced last week so low as sixty-four millions, has already augmented again to eighty-two millions, and the Council has decided that it shall be raised to a hundred millions. All the troops stationed within twenty leagues of Paris will be marched to that city for the review which is to take place on Saturday in the presence of the Bey of Tanis; 32 battalions of infantry, and squadrons of cavalry will be on the ground, beside two regiments of artillery, commanded by the Duke de Montpensier. The diplomatic communication proposed to be made by France to the northern courts, has been under dis cussion in the cabinet constantly since Sunday last. In the original draft, various alterations are said to have been made, having a tendency to attenuate any peremptory tone which had been given to it. The council of ministers was to have met again on Friday, to decide finally on its form, and the time at which it should be delivered.

ARCHANGEL, OCT'. 26.-A few sellers of Rye and Oats have already come forward, but they would take no thing under S. Ito. 5 for the former, and S. Ro. 3 for the latter, and the offers made to them being I Ito. less ; no busi ness has followed. We have since received serious com plaints of continued rein and snow in the interior, and both Oats and Rye, being cut at the time, are said to have sus tained injury, and the weight of both is represented to be not equal to that of last year. In consequence of this, the Russians have again withdrawn, and are not inclined to sell, even at the prices they asked before, and which would now be willingly paid. A few days no two parcels of Rve were 1 , bought, after a long negotiation, at S. Ito. 5, and this leads us to judge that Oats cannot be expected to open below S. Ro. 3. We would, at all crests, urgently recommend that orders should be sent out as early as possible, as it is generally found at periods of expected animation that it is of great importance to be first in the field. About 3,000 chet rens of Wheat, on the spot, have been bought, at S. Ro. 6. 60 Cop. The quality of t he new Linseed ishighly spoken of, and we may quote S. Ro. 61 as a conjectural price. The re ports relating to Flax are likewise satisfactory ; but, as we may fairly expect a busk demand, not only from Great Britain, but from France also, we cannot anticipate low prices.

MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE. The Bank of England averages for the week ending the 28th alt., show the following differences on comparison with the previous weekly return I—ln the department of issue, a decrease of notes of 4,2951., the amount out from that department being, at the last date, 28,313,5451. In the banking department, an increase in the reserve of notes of 215,8501., and a decrease of active circulation to the extent of 220,1451. ; the average of notes out among the public being reduced to 19,987,8001. Public deposits were increased by 571,1701., the gross average being 8,447,5601. Private deposits increased by 43,333/. ; the gross average 8,018,3911. Governme nt securities in banking depart ment as before. In " other" securities" an increase of 209,1471. the average amount en hand, 13,562,8221. In coin and bullion, increase 84,3601.; the average held, 15,008,1321. In 7-day and other bills, decrease 98,1291. ; the average, 892,355/. In the rest, decrease 2,7221. ; the average, 3,479,9671. These returns present no differences of particular import ance on collation with the previous returns. But it may be gathered from the state of the deposit account, still so largely in increase, with coin and bullion also in excess, that the policy of the bank was becoming rather mere restrictive. For whilst the aggregate of public and private deposits had placed the Bank more in funds by nearly 700,0001., the " other" securities. in which the larger portion of such excess is usually placed for fructification by interest and discounts, had received an addition of only 209,1471. Two .'Clock.—We have had a quiet market in the funds, with a slight improvement in Consols. They are now quoted (this being the hour of closing on Saturdays), 951 to 1 money, and 951 to 1 for time.

I P SWICH, DEC. 1.-Our attendance at market to day was thought to be the largest since harvest ; as was also the supply of Barley, but much of it was of the middling and inferior description. Wheat met dull sale, and even the dry fine samples with difficulty sustained last week's prices. Barley, even the best qualities, were not few in off so free s er . ale. Oats No alteration in Beans or Peas, being so full as dear. LEWES, DEC. 1.-We cannot report any change in the price of Wheat, although the turn of the market was to-day a little in favour of the buyers, with a good supply and an adequate inquiry.

In Beans and Peas little doing. LINCOLN, DEC. 4.-Our market still continues well supplied with grain of all sorts.

Flour, notithstanding, was in slow request, Irish and American, both free and underhand, barely sustaining our late currency.

NORTHAMPTON FAIR, Nov. 28.-But a moderate supply of home-bred sheep, with a dull sale, and rather lower prices. There was on offer a quantity of Scotch and Dutch sheep, which met a very dull sale. In fat Sheep, of which there were but few, there was a brisk demand. The supply of fat Beasts was good, and found buyers at about the usual prices. Of store Beasts there was a very large supply, par. ticularly of Irish, supposed to be nearly two thousand in number, in very good condition ; a great many were sold. There was also a large supply of Scotch and other Beasts, with rather a dull sale. In milking Cows there was little alteration in prices. The supply of horses was goof, but the trade was flat. T A VISTOCK FAIR, DEc. 2.-The quantity of fat Cattle wee fully equal to any former show, and the quality of a very g reat number was as good as ever produced. The.de mend, however, was very slack, unless for the very best for the Christmas market. The best fed fetched from 555. to GOs., but moderate qualities ranged generally from 48s. to 52a. per cwt. ; Sheep were numerous, and fetched high prices, bid. to 7d. having been freely given. On the whole, the fair was a lower one than the last, still a very consider able business was done. TOTNES, DEc. 1.-The supply of Sheep was un usually large and of good quality, the demand for which was uuequal to the supply, whilst that of Bullocks was far below the time of year show as regards quantity, but the quality was excellent, and those were taken off at rather higher prices.

George, St. Vincent; Ran• LONDON, SATURDAY, DEC. 5. AN evidently conscientious and philanthropic writer in a morning contemporary journal insists very strongly on the virtues of a peasant proprietary, or the division of the country, or of a certain portion of it, into small farms, possessed by peasants as pro prietors. The proposal is more especially applied to Ireland, and the plan is represented as almost the only one in which the peasantry can be incited to industrious and pacific habits, and in which the land can be brought into the most productive cultivation. The last argument of this writer has been adduced from the state of the Palatinate and the valley of the Rhine, into which certainly the system of peasant proprietor has been introduced. Now, we chance to be acquainted with districts on both sides of the Rhine, of the situation of which we shall state the principal facts. The effect of the great revolution which terminated the last century gave to tho peasants in one district, that of Germany, a permanent copyhold interest in their farms, making them per petual tenants, at a fixed rent. In the other district, on the French side, the original landlords were swept away, and the land parcelled out and sold to peasants. If the two districts be compared, that district where rent is received, has a population far more comfort able, more wealthy, better fed and cared for, than the district in which the peasants obtained all to them selves. In the latter district all right of primogeniture was of course abolished, and the land has become so sub divided, that in some places the portions do not amount to a potato garden, and do not pay the expenses of collecting the laud-tax upon them. In C01184.4111C8C0 of this subdivision, too, the facility of keeping and rearing cattle no longer exists, nor is there such a thing as manure, except in that liquid state, which our cotem porary speaks of, and that is gleaned, and gathered, and used in a manner that we shall refrain from 1 detailing. In this region, moreover, the peasants are no longer proprietors. They are nominally so , but in reality they are all so indebted to the Jews, that the latter really draw the few fractions of profit that can be derived from such parcelled land. The diet of the population is of the lowest kind, and quite on a par with that of the worst parts of Ireland. The districts on the right side of the river, where rent is paid, are not reduced to this extremity. The holders are not permitted to subdivide their lands, and they are altogether better husbandmen and heal thier individuals. Both regions, however, are in the same predicament as to their surplus population. Both are obliged to employ annual emigration, the younger sons and younger brothers, with the females whom they marry or betroth, inva r iably setting forth to seek in America that outlet and employ, which is not to be had at home. The difference is, that in the tenant region this vent has been had recourse to sooner, before the population had been increased to the extent of mutual impoverishment and starvation. As far as the accumulation of capital is concerned, it is much the same thing in both ; in the one dis trict all the money that can be spared or scraped, goes with the emigrants to America. From the other they go without money, and with bare necessaries, to be helots in another hemisphere, those who cannot muster the passage-money, enlisting as soldiers in the French army, of which they fill most disproportionately the number. It is not to be denied that the fields look well, that they are full of corn, and cabbage, and tobacco ; and the hoc and the watering-pot, and the mist trusser aro industriously plied. All these are accompani ments of the petite culture. But penetrate into the dwelling of the Alsacian or the Badischen poor, inquire into his circumstances, his dietary, his state of intelligence, notwithstanding his education, and you will find that his physical wants are too poorly supplied to admit of his having or developing moral or intellectual ones. in the grade of human beings the Alsacian peasant-proprietor is as low as the Irish cottier. But the partizans of peasant proprietorship may urge that they only demand that a portion of the peasantry of the country be proprietors, leaving th em e rest to live on wages as day labourers for far mers who hold, or do not hold, under landlords. We fear, however, that there is a strong tendency to assimilate in the lower classes of a country, and that one system, whichever it be, is likely to absorb or banish all others. We know that slave labour soon swallows up free labour in any country ; so would peasant proprietorship soon swallow up landlordism. But wherever there is capital, and where land becomes a mercantile speculation, there land lordism must prevail nay, must drive even the old regretted yeomen from the field. Such is one of the effects of wealth and its accumulation. We doubt, therefore, whether it would be either politic or prudent to run counter to this in any part of the British dominions. Ireland has yet to be con quered in an industrial sense, and its land reclaimed by English capital. Tenant-farmers, and not peasant proprietors, arc the instruments which capital employs. The peasant proprietor neither wants nor attracts it. All he wants is to vegetate and live, and, in time, to make his progeny vegetate and live far w orse on the same area which fed him. Our contemporary may depend on it, that over-fixity of tenure draws after it over-population. The no-fixity has, to be sure, pro duced the same result, which only shows that ex tremes meet, and that over-recklessness and over confidence in the means of subsistence, produce the -ame result on the lower classes. ---- THE excise has always been, and while it exists al ways will be, the most odious mode of taxing commodi ties—the property and income tax not excepted. This is owing to its necessarily inquisitorial character, and is a mere matter of sentiment; yet Rise statesmen will always make allowance for popular sentiment in devising their plans for raising a revenue. Apart, however, from sentiment, the excise is open to grave objections on the score of its tendency to repress in ' ventive ingenuity, and of the expense of collection. The excise duty being paid in the first instance by the producer or dealer, it is necessary to know how much is really produced. To guard against frauds on the revenue, the agents of the excise must have admission to watch the processes of manu facture at every stage ; they must be enabled to in stitute comparisons between the amount of raw material and the amount of manufactured, produce, in order that nothing may remain unaccounted for. To this end the law prescribes the processes to be ' observed by manufacturers of articles subjected to excise duty ; from these legal methods there can be no deviation without incu rrin g heavy penaltiesthe ; adoption of new plans, in order to accelerate pro duction, or increase the quantity, of manufactured produce e xtracted from raw material, comes thus to 1111111111.1r - 7 - """rig- -- - . . . ..
