The author of the mark system is himself a man of mark : his intimate knowledge of the subject of criminal treatment—the years of anxious reflection which he has devoted to considering its principles—the praci cal experience which he has had in working them out—all entitle his opinions to receive attentive study from the penal reformer. As yet, justice has not been done to Captain MACONOCEIE and hie ideas. Taking an almost ultra-humane view of the end of prison discipline—a view sufficiently original, though its ele ments are to be found in the penal philosophy of BECCARIA and the older writers, to cause it to be re ceived with gibes and scorn from men who would not take the trouble to understand it—he was only per mitted to make trial of his system where no conceiv able system would or could work well—in Norfolk Island—amongst transport 4 d transports, the most de prayed, lost, self- abandoned human beings, perhaps, on the earth ' s surface. Even there he did not fail. On the contrary, those who are most intimately ac quain'ed with the penal settlement before and alter his administration, consider it a signal success; and, allowing for the lack of powers and proper means to work with, every candid reader will, we think, concur in the opinion. To au extent which seems miraculous when we look back upon it, he succeeded in taming the hitherto tameless,making thesavage gentle, and calling out human f. clings from bosoms long dead to the amenities of hle. In his hands, kindness really be ' came a magic; sad, although these results must be in put attributed to the personal influence of Captain MAconocfilx, they are principally the result of hie system. The mark system, derided when it was not under stood, is now living down the more reasoning oppo sition which it once encountered. Year by year it advances in public estimation. Rivals speak of it now with respect ; former antagonists embrace and promulgate it. That it will greatly modify, if it do not supersede, most of the existing theories, we consider as likely as any oontingency can be considered. Captain MACONOCIIIIS says the mark system is identical in principle with the views advocated in these columns. It is so in a great measure. As system of discipline, we think it essentially sound: we emphasise the word essential because we believe some of the details open to grave discusaion. Wit these are not parts of a perft ct whole. The mark system admits of a variety of modificitions its author does not insist on fixing upon it even his own developments. And wisely. The creator of a method is hardly ever the first to see the extent or the limits to which it may be applied. The idea, divine in its origin, and supported by the wisdom of all ages, pagan and Christian, that labour is the expiator and the preventive of crime, may be considered as the key to the mark system. In this we entirely concur; and the doc trine has been frequently enforced in these columns. Work is a sacrament. It is at once a purifi cation and a punishment: while it chastens it gives strength. We cordially agree with Capt. MACON°. cute in the importance which he attaches to the dis cipline of hard work. The criminal who wrongs so ciety breaks the contract which the law has established between the individual and the aggregate. Ile be comes its debtor, owing it a certain amount of repass tion for the injury sustained. BECCABIA lays it dowa that the amount of the damage is the fair measure of the crime : and if we draw a right inference, the author of the mark system implies the same thing. All crimes, he says, should have a monetary value, which the criminal shall be bound to redeem over and above the cost of his mairtenance while in dun's. The scale of values would require very nice adjust most, but this is a matterof detail, and it might be left for the juries to decide. All punishments would therefore sesame the form of ,fines —not to be paid, however, in money, but to be cleared off by labour. That the labour-sentence is more justin principle than the time sentence now in use, there can be no doubt : that it would work more profitably for good is equally certain. The time sentence, especially under the clumsy and ineffective discipline of too many of our prisons, is a mere mockery of justice. It takes away all stimulus to exertion. The offender feels himself powerless in the hands of his keeper. Do what he may, be has no control over his own fate. Idle or industrious, dissolute or or derly, he knows he must serve out an inexorable number of hours, weeks, or years. He always looks forward to the day when, well or ill-beloved, he can defy his superiors with impunity and laugh at their authority. Meanwhile his great object is to kill, not to improve, the time. The hardened offender cares not for prison punishment, dark cells, and low diet, for they leave him his darling laziness. We have known many instances of criminals who preferred idleness, the dark dungeon, and bread sad water, to the wheel ; and we have recently heard of a man who stood seventy days of such confinement rather than work at the ordinary employments of a dockyard. The work sentence would probably remove this difficulty, as the prisoner would then feel that bad conduct would further remove the day of his liberation ; the penalty of every offence being an addition to the original sentence, an increase of the debt which ultimately must be all paid off. So far we consider the system of Captain ?two:swam sound; we object, however, to his "social sixes." It is just that a man atone for his own sins—but why should he be bound for those of others? This is pushing the doctrine of communism Much further than we can accept it. As a system of prison treatment, we think highly of Captain MACONOCHIM3 idea: as a system of penal philosophy, we consider it open to some emendations. histoo humane. A romantic tenderness is misplaced upon criminals. Razors will not cut marble, how ever keen their edge : philanthropy alone will not prevent crime, however pure its motives. Our reformer attaches too much importance to re form of the individual : this reform is very essential, but it is not all—essential. We would try to reform as well as punish : we would correct—bat morally aa well as physically. Captain MACONOCBIE woul d strive to reform—avoiding as much as possible the very appearance of punishment. He would consider the prison • moral hospital—the inmates of which are to be cured at any price, and restored to society sound. This is very generous : but would it prevent crime ? Our prison discipline will be very imperfect until it is both reformatory and deterring. At present we are in an experimental stage. For years we have been trying only to deter—to strike terror. In this we have failed—for crime has sot decreased, if we take groupsof years and compare them. Perhaps it would not be unwise to try the other extreme. Even failures are fruitful in lessons. The experiment would have mercy in its favour. Bat the interests caseerned are very grave, and should not be lightly disturbed. No OM advocates punishment for its own sake now—that vengeance. Deterring power must, however, be bad. Reform of the criminal may be the first object ed prison discipline ; but the ultimate end is the preven tion of crime. To society this is the all important consideration. In dealing with the offender, yen must not forget the world outside. It has also to be impressed.—feeogieed—reformed. The great object is to reconcile the good done to the violator of the law with the intends of society. nue must be no premium fleeted upon crime. We mast throw no temptation in the way of honest poverty. Above all, we most not mks the gaol a college which can give diplomas of character and ability to its eleses. Nothing can be more undesirable, notwithstand ing what Capt. Macottocarlsays, than a state of things HAY.--1hi1T111161.14 Ago (Meek. —Miars.Cooper sod Davis report prier ea fellows : emit Warw. to 14,1 1tate105....40 0 . 10 $4, L eers.. 11. so 30 .

SATURDAY, NOV. 4. - - - - - Tile fiercely contested struggle going on at Vienna between the Sclavonian soldiers and generals who surround that city, and the German population, and opinion within its walls, assumes every day more and more the rancorous character of a war of race. iLLLACRICII himself avows it, indeed, with the rude insolence of a Croat, is his address to the Bohemians, in which he declares that his march to Vienna was directed solely against the enemies of the Sclavonians. It is indeed remarkable that this Austrian general off oer should have written a long letter about his po litical motives and principles, without saying one sin gle word of the Emperor. The imperial ministers, when they called the asaistaece of this chief and of his bands, did but imitate the policy of Lord STRAFFORD, when he proposed to raise an army of wild Irish to enable MARLIN L to crush the Londoners. The English perliemeat seat STRAFFORD to the scaffold for the W We will do the Austrian Emperor and his little court the justice to admit, that they seem perfectly aware and ashamed of the impolioy as well as of the infamy of crushing the now liberal and civilised German portion of the Austrian population by the retrograde, ignorant, and illi beral Sclavonians. Although he can rely on none but Sclavonian troops and support, the Em peror still refuses to go to Prague, to summon the Diet there, and sanction the Tchech movement by his presence, as he has done by his authority. Ard the Praguers, through the medium of their historian, PALACHT, acquaint the Emperor, that if he does net come and convoke the Diet amon gst them, and forsake Vienna. they will not answer for the continuum of the loyal adhesion and enthusiasm of the pee* of Bohemia. It has been, no doubt, a feeling of the necessity of not treading oat the German element from the Aire trian population, that has arrested the hand of WINDISCHORATZ, all Sclavonian as he is, and led him to exhaust every means of bringing the citizens of the capital to a paci fi c surrender. The citizens of Vines were much attached to the imperial house, and mess anxious to combat constitutionally, and in comsat with the government, against the retrograde and overbearing tendencies of the Selavonians. But the Emperor's court and ministers trusted the Seise*. mans only, and entered into that traitorous and underhand understanding with JELLACHICH, which caused the German troops and populace in Vienna to rise. The Viennese rose to prevent the Hungarians from being crushed. Indeed it is impoimitde to find a population, which has shown itself so brave and so disinterested as that of Vienna, which so long :lay: under the character of being the dullest and lowest set of sensualists. With the exception of the murder of Lcroca, perpetrates by half-a-down ruffians, the conduct of the Viennese, from first to last, has been heroic. Had the House of Hapsburg, and its advisers, trusted their true German hearts, and treated them fairly and frankly, the throne would have found a support which it may henceforth look for in vain. With the triumph of the Sclavonians, and the is establishment of the Austrian throne on the military supex m i t that race, Austria comes to be Gorman. So is this felt, that Baron Vox GAGERN him self, et the Frankfort assembly, and one of theme eliemmea most attached to German unity, has iscliffed Met Austria henceforth can be considered no longer Gum mi end he advised the Assembly to treat with Amble beassiseth as a foreign state.

Firskk serves the house and the old empire of the flarenenos from German sympathies and brother hood. Liberal and illiberal, north and south, Ger man can look to Prussia alone, and its monarch, u the chief and the leader of their race. And the sooner that empty, though respectable and well-meaning puppet, Archduke Joao, quits his position at Frank fort the better. A member of the Austrian family can no lower have a claim to be considered a German. The sound result is that Austria loses all claim to Italian domination. As head of the German empire, seccessor of the Once, and descendant of the Mums= and FERDINANDS, the Emperor of Auerela might have some claim to lord it over the imperial sham beyond the Alps, and even to wield Gamin, unz moority at Rome. But what pretensions ci Me hied sea be put forward by the new Bing of the Tabseie nil Croats ? The Amity and government of Austria, in het, have mew removed to altogether another sphere. In deed of Wag the German rival of Prussia, it is con verted into the Selavonian rival of Russia. Instead of looking towards the Rhine, its views are directed down t in orli l the having been Is prison would be a recom mesidation. Nor is this possible. Skill may be ao waked in prima—bat set character. So long as pri!ons we the chosen places of punishment for crime, a stigma, healthy and wholesome, will necessarily attach to them. No teaching can remove the taint of mime. Industrially, even intellectually, the convict may be improved in prison : but socially, morally, he must inevitably be lowered. Under the best of systems, he must loss more than he can gain : and there need be little fear that the honest will fo . rget their virtues—give up their characters--to obtain the most perfect education which a prison could afford. Cliptaint MACONOCIIietI mark system proposes a solution of these difficulties. His plan ought to be tried. His wonder at the apparent fruitlessness of his labours is natural. He has not been well used. Others begin to filch his ideas without acknowledg ment—and officers of government quote them with approval. Why is he not tried? Surely we have need of all our capacities in sash a work. Tin Quarterly Returns of the Registrar-General, which have just been published, and of which an ab stract appeared in onr columns of Thursday, exhibit, we were happy to perceive, a considerable ameliora tion in the Mate of the public health, especially in those manufacturing districts which suffered so severely in the years 1846-7. This is particularly cheering at the present moment, because, the better the general health of the people, the less likelihood is there that the Asiatic cholera will either spread very widely, or prove very destructive ' where it does pene trate. Its progress among us has as yet been re markably slow ; and indeed from its absence or infre quency in all the nearest parts of the continent, we would be inclined to infer that the violence of the epidemic is for the 'Jena abated, though it may possibly break out with renewed malignity in the spring. To these cheering considerations the metropolis it self is, unfortunately, an exception. Twice over in his last report the Registrar-General is forced to make this one melancholy exception. " The improve ment in the public health," says he, "is considerable in all the divisioss except London ;" and again : "The pressure of mortality has slightly increased in Lon don' though it has abated in the country." It is not the first tame that it has been neeessary to make this exception. Our own impression, from a tolerably minute examination of the returns of late years, is, that while in all other parts of England unhealthy and healthy seasons succeed each other with some thing of a due reaction, the health of the inhabitants of this vast metropolis has for several years been gra dually deteriorating at a rate which, during the last two years, has been most alarmingly accelerated. Any of our readers who will take the trouble to examine the last four pages of tables appended to the Ninth Annual Report of the Registrar-General, will find the evidence of this fact set before him, in a very compact and convincing fashion. It contains a comparative statement for each quarter of eight years, 1840 to 1847, of the deaths that have taken place in the Metropolitan Districts, classified accord ing to their causes. The more minutely this table is examined, the more discouraging will the results appear ; and the more perplexing, if an attempt be made, to assign adequate causes for so I.rge an in crease in the mortality, resulting from nenly every form of disease. Considerable attention has in deed bees already directed to the fact, that during the last two years there has been an extraordinary in crease in the mortality from contagious end epidemic diseases. But the public generally are not aware that this increase has by no means been confined to what are classed as zymotic diseases ; but that in fact there is hardly any ailment to which the human frame is liable, of which the fatal cases have not in our me tropolitan districts increased in a proportion far ex ceeding the highest ratio of increase that can be as signed to our population. It is to some of the most striking instances of this, to us denizens of the great metropolis, rather alarming state of things, that we propose at present to direct our readers attention. We shall in most instances content ourselves with comparing the years 1840 and 1847. The romps risan of two isolated years is, we admit, not always a safe criterion. But it so happens that 1840 was, especially in the metropolis, an unhealthy year, and a comparison between it and 1847 is therefore a stronger condemnation of the latter. They are likewise the extreme years in the data furnished by the Registrar- General's reports. A main element to be kept in view in inquiries of this kind, and one which we must request our readers not to lose sight of, is the probable Increase of our me tropolitan population in seven years. Calculated on the basis furnished by the censuses of 1831-41, this increase would be about 11 per cent.; nor do we imagine that any extraneous causes have swelled it muck above that proportion. If, then, we find in the tables an increase, in the same period, of deaths from most classes of disease in the proportion of from 30 per cent. to 100 per cent. and upwards, it is impos sible to avoid drawing the most unfavourable conclu sions as to the sanitary condition of the metro polis now, compared with what it was seven years ago, especially if in many cases the increase be a gradual one, and not solely attributable to the transitory epidemics which have visited us for the last two years. We have abstracted from the Registrar-General's returns the totals for each year; the tableau prepared by him, giving only the totals for each quarter; a very convenient arrange ment for investigating the fluctuations of disease from season to season, but not applicable to the comparison which we are about to institute; there being some times an excessive mortality in one month or one quieter of a year, whose total fatalities are below the average. Our object is to compare the years ; and the annual ravages of the principal maladies that shorten the lives of the inhabitants of this metropolis. The ling of the classes into which the returns are divided are the Zymotic, or Epidemic and Contagious ' diseases. The deaths in this class were, in the eight lyears 1840.7 respectively, 8,500, 8,980, 7,834, 10,132, 11,142, 9,524, 9,496, 13,887. The increase is here entirely in the last year, the excess over 1840 being 63 per cent., and over 1846 so much as 46 per cent. In some diseases of this class the increase is mach greeter, and largest in those of the most malig nant character. 5,788 of the deaths from zymreic disease in 1847 happened in the last quarter; of which 1,161 were from influenza, and 1,279 from typhus ; a destructiveness unparalleled, we believe, in the re membrance of the past or present generation. The influenza has likewise had the principal hand in swelling the returns of the next class to which we shall direct attention—Diseases of the Lungs and other organs of Respiration, generally a class of ail ment+ tolerably uniform in their fatality. Contrast ing, however, the extreme years to which our inquiry extends, we find In 1540. In 1947. Ineresse. Deaths from Wombs of 1101911.81 a. 14,160 19,460 30 per out. The increase in the classes of disease to which we have hitherto adverted, being partly ascribable to at mospheric causes of that mysterious kind, which waft from clime to clime the seeds of epidemic disease, we might look forward to an improvement in future years when the atmospheric influences shall be more favour able. But what is to be said when we ootae to those classes of disease, on which the general state of the atmosphere has less effect, and of which the main causes must be supposed to be pretty constant in healthy as well as unhealthy sea sons ? To what sue we to attribute the fact that the mortality from Diseases of the Liver, the Heart, the Kidneys, &0., has in our Metropolitan di s tricts, increased in a still larger proportion than that caused by zym V otic or pneumonic ailments ? In the returns, Clem ~ for instance Diseases of the Heart and Blood - vessels were in t he years 1840-7 respectively, fatal to the following exteat-1,019, 1,021, 1,089, 1,272, 1,694, 1,719, 1,783, 2,123. Here then is a gradual and rapid increase for the last flee years: the excess in 1847 over 1840 being in the proportion of 108 per cent. figain, in Class VL—Diseases of the Stomach, Liver, and Digestive Organs—the fatality is largely i ns/ slimed • and the rise has on the whole been toler ably gradual.

We have thus gone through almost the whole cycle of the principal classes of disease, chronic and organic, as well as epidemic and contagious, and in every class we find an increase greatly exceeding the utmost pos sible development that can be assigned to our popula tion. Our statistical summary would be incomplete, if we did not state the total deaths from all causes which occurred in the metropolitan districts in the years 1840-7 respectively. The numbers are, 47,172 —46,196 - 46,232-49,491-50,586 —48,475 —49,277 —60,442. Here the principal increase is confined to the lest year; and we have no objection that this fact should stand for what it is worth against the infer ences as to the gradual increase of mortality which we have drawn above. It will not the less remain a fact, that deaths from the most malignant epidemic and chronic diseases have increased in the proportions we have tabulated above. It is not merely the actual mortality, but the general state of health of the metropolis, that may be gauged by the returns which we have analysed. How vast an amount of sickness and suffering is re presented by an increase of a few thousand deaths, or even a few hundreds in certain classes of disease, our readers will scarcely require to be reminded. Deaths are the exceptions in almost all diseases: and every fatal case implies the existence of a number of caw s which, though not fatal, add nevertheless incalculably to the burdens and inflictions of all classes, especially of those who are dependent on their labour for their daily bread. We have hardly left ourselves space for any inquiry into the special causes of this extra ordinary excess in the mortality of the me tropolis; an excess, be it remembered, which has been steadily maintained during the pre sent year, at a time when the health of all other parts of the country has been sensibly ameliorated. All the old sanitary abuses doubtless contribute their share to the melancholy result. Sewers, cesspools, catt:e markets, slaughter-houses, knackers' yards, grave yards, stagnant waters, and all the other generaws of disease, etetribute their full contingent to the pesti lential carnage. It must be kept in mind, too, that this enormous city is becoming with each revolving year more end more of a city. Large districts, which ten years ago were green fields, are now covered with houses. In the same period of time an addition, equal to the entire population of Liverpool or Manchester, has been made to the number of our inhabitants. In the same period of time half a million of corpses have been committed to the ground, nine-tenths of which have been buried' in our city grave-yards, a circumstance in itself suffi cient to account for any pestilence. The filth accu mulated in our sewers has been augmented by the ten years' contributions of more than 2,000,000 of people, and all the animals whose labour they require when living, or whose caresses they con sume when dead. The commerce and manufactures of the city have increased in proportion; petty traffic and locomotion have likewise in many ways developed themselves; and scores of steamers are perpetually stirring up the polluted waters which were formerly left in undisturbed repose. All the multifarious hot beds of miasma and infection have received perpetual nouriihm-.nt, while the green fields have been reced ing further and further from the city's centre. What wonder that in such a state of things the epidemics of typhus, and influenza, and small-pox, and scarlatina, and diarrhcca, should each in turn exhibit an un exampled malignity ! It would be a much greater wonder, if the congregation of two millions and a quarter of inhabitants in one city did not produce results unexampled in the experience of less gigantic oommunities. FRANCE. FARIS, FRIDAY, 11 A.M. It is announced, in a semi-official form, in the I Moniteur of last evening, that Genoa was on t"e 29th in full insurrection. The troops were called out, and ready to act. The arrest of a poster of placards, it is alfil med, was the cause of the disturb ance. The windows of the guard-house were de molished with stones. The civic guard interfered, and tired on the people. The line assisted in dispersing the assemblages. Rendezvous were fixed for the evening. This is an echo of the movement in 'Tus cany. --- - - The government has granted a supply of 20,0001 muskets to the Sardinian government. M. Leon Faucher has addressed to the journals a tter, in which he formally protests against any pro rogation of the Assembly in the interval between the declaration of the constitution and the election of the president. The Bordeaux mail of this morning brings no jour nals or letters from Madrid. I send the weekly statement of the Bank of France, by which you will perceive that the progressive prostration of commerce which has been remarked for so many weeks still continues. The discounts of the Paris Bank are again four millions less this week. Against this there is a small increase of a million and a half in the branches. The government deposits have been reduced this week from nine millions to one and three-quarter millions, and the circulation is augmented by ten millions in Paris, bat diminished by eight millions in the departments. The circulation is fast approaching the limit im imposed on it by the law, beihg now nearly 398 millions. It cannot exceed 400 millions. Against th's amount of circulation there is 233; mil lions of specie. The amount of overdue bills appears to be considerably increased, but this is explained by the fact that the commercial bills of Paris are always made to fall due on the 15th and last day of each month, and the parties have until the day following to retire them. On this occasion the weekly account having been made up to the day on which they were payable (the 2nd), owing to the let November having been • close holiday, very many bills are included in the amount of overdue bills, which will be paid in the regular course.

STATE OF AUSTRIA. In the extraordinary supplement of the Deutsche -Reform, of the 31st ult., it is stated that, up to the 29th, afternoon, the combat at Vienna still continued. Windiechgratz had taken several suburbs. Negotiations were resumed, but the r e . suit had not transpired. On the 28th the imps. eialists commenced the attack upon those suburbs from which the least opposition was expected. Win. dischgratz bad openly afforded the citizens of Vienne the opportunity of assembling in the suburbs which he had captured in order that they might separate themselves from the armed population. The above journal is strongly suspected of colour. ing the intelligence in a way favourable to the imps. elands. We give as literal a translation as possible of the further details it furnishes : On commencing the attack, rockets and grenades, and a few bombs, were thrown by the army into the city, so that some houses were Kt on fire. In the Landatrasse and Erdberg suburbs there were merely sham attacks; people threw from the houses flowers on the soldiers A portion of the national gaud must have thrown their arms away, for large quanti ties were found in the river. In the Landsman. suburb Jellachich deivered an address to the people, which awakened their confidence. Or the ot.r hand, the workirg men fought with the greatest bravery. On the evening of the 28th, Windiscbgratz took possession of the Erdberg and Landstrasse sub urbs, and the Gloggnitz railway station, and pet*. tested as far as the Franz bridge, so that his batteries extended all along tte Jagerzeil suburb. At 8, p.n., Windischgritz entered the above suburb, and took up ' his quarters for the night at the' Golden Year" as he had (it is said) anticipated the evening before. During the night of the 28th Windischgratz t oo k . possession of the Belvidere, the Schwarzenberg gap. • den, and, on the other sine of the city, the Leopold. stadt, holding also the Jagerzeil suburb. During the . night only musketry discharges were heard et intervals. i' ) "On the morning of the 29th the attack began on the Wieden, Marimba, and Schottenfeld suburbs, in which resistance had been determined upon. At the same time a column of smoke issued from the interior of the city, as a signal of distress, calling upon the Hungarians—although in vain—for help. The Hun. garian vanguard did indeed show imelr ; but without making any attack, withdrew immediately again to Bruck. "The Polish General, Bern, at the head of the stn. dents, had withdrawn into the interior of the city, and appeared resolved to continue the contest. On the pre. vious day, the students had removed all distinguishing marks from their hate, in order to avoid being recog nised by their outward appearance. On the forenoon of the 29th Windischgratz gave orders to suspend the fight, and accorded a truce. Numerous parties then came out to parley, but Windischgratz still insisted upon his former demand for the disarming of the working men and students. " Pillersclorf and Polezki, the two members of the Diet who had returned from Olmtitz without having had an audience of the Emperor, desired an interview with Wiudischgtatz, which he declined. Towards noon three carriages arrived with other persons de groin of a parley. They did not find Windischgrats, as he had gone with his staff towards Bruck, in order to reconnoitre the position of the vanguard of the Hungarian army. Thither the parties also went, and their return was anxiously expected in the course of the afternoon of the 29th.. So far the Deutsche Reform. We have as yet no journals or letters from the Austrian capital. Mora vian paper., however, have arrived, and they bring the following intelligence :—During th e 28th the roar of artillery was heard, without intermission, till 8 p.m. ; from that hour till Bit partly subsided. The fight chiefly raged in the neighbourhood of the Bel videre (in Lerchenteld), Briggittenau, andin the vicinity of Leopoldstadt. Leopoldstadt was still in the hands of the Viennese, and in the suburb s the Imperialists had not gained a foot of ground. In an extraordinary supplement of the Breslauer Zeitung, published on the 30th ult., the statement that the bombardment of Vienna had commenced, and that the troops had attacked the city on all sides, wu fully confirmed, as well as the account of the all bat total annihilation of the battalion which attacked the first barricade, and of its subsequent capture by the troops. It is further added that the 11 (not 12) can non which defended the first barricade had been eta tioned behind the second one ; so that if the contest continued in that way every barricade would be the scene of a sanguinary combat. On the other hand, the statement that the troops had penetrated as far as the Karla Theatre was neither confirmed nor con tradicted. It was generally believed in Prerau and in Breslau, that an attempt would be made to take the city by storm. Travellers who had left Floris dorf on the evening of the 28th state that Vienna was harming on all sides. The armed population of Vienna were fully resolved to fight to the last. It is asserted that they had compelled all foreigners, under pain of being shot, to join their ranks. On the other hand, Windischgretz had declared that all persons taken with arms in their hands would be imme diately executed, so that the foreigners stand a poor chance of escape. The Wiener Zeitung, the official organ of the Austrian government, continues to insert—notwith standing the prohibition of Windischgriez—not only accounts of the state of affairs in Vienna, but even leading articles on the question of the day. Even if the conductors of that journal were willing to obey the injunctions of Windiechgretz, and to publish only official articles, it is not likely that the insurgents would rest satisfied with such documents. Numerous Hungarian families, chiefly belonging to the anti-revolutionary party, have fled to Breslau and Prague. With reference to the future position of affairs after the capture of Vienna—supporang that such an event really occur—the Breslauer Zeitung remarks that as a garrison of 60,000 men at least will be required for that city, as the war with the Hunga rians (nearly every one of whom is a soldier) will re quire an immense army ; as hostilities have recom menced in Italy, and as Radeteki is demanding rein forcements, it is not clear how Austria can conjure the storm arising . on all sides. Meantime, the Stacenski Jug, the moot influential journal in South Hungary, or rather is all Slavonia Proper, holds out the pros pest of a fierce national contest with the Austrian government, which (it observes) is just now employ lin the Slavor lane as the mere tools of the dynasty. The following is the conclusion of a remarkable article in the above journal—an article which secures addi tional importance from its being copied into the lead ing Prague pipers : Shall we—eighteen millions of Slavonians and three of Rnmanen—shall we again shed our blood in order to »- I erect the German and Austrian throne, and resuscitate the German Emperor and Magyar King No—never again— never shall the Slavonian army replace the Emperor Ferdi nand on his throne ; and cursed be the hand who attempts it. Again, hcwever, may the Emperor raise his head, bat only oaths Emperor of the United Slavonian Empire. As for the Austrian Emperor and the Magyar King, let him rest in eternal peen.. It is asserted in the Breslin journal above quoted that the deputation of the Diet received from the Em peror the promise that he would re-consider his or donnance respecting the transfer of that assembly to Kremsier. It adds that Minister Kraus had left Olmtitz for Vienna, and that the landsturm had been organised in Silesia in favour of the Viennese. At 8, P.M. ' on the 28th, it adds, the suburbs had been set on fire in live or six places, by the rockets thrown in from the army. The French residents in Vienna left on the 27th, under the protection 01 the French am bassaeor. All the flour in the steam-mills on the Danube (some 20,000 cwt.) was saved by the Vien nese from the fire which destroyed the windmills themselves, so that the supply did not fall into the hands of the imperialists. The gunners of the Vien nese are principa' ly deserters from the artillt ry corps, and are capital marksmen.
