JULY lB. _ PARLIAMENT has been in session—except during the hclidays—since the 23rd of November last. It has already altered the sugar duties, and shifted sedi tious speaking front the class of crimes in which it formerly ranked into that of felonies. And Lord done RUSSELL last night informed the house that govern ment still intends to proceed with the Health of Towns Bill, the Diplomatic Relations with Rome Bill, the Irish Incumbered Estates Bill (if the Lords are agreeable), and the Borough Eieetions Bill. The Landlord and Tenant Bill is to be pressed in the House of COIIIIIIOIII4, with the view probably of its being taken up by the House of Lords next session. The measure for the repeal of the navigation laws, with all its subsidiary bills, is to be abandoned, and so is the Elective Franchise (Ireland) Bill. This is the whole amount of the positive information bestowed upon tee house ; all the other measures depending in parliament were declared to be " minor measures" by Lord JOHN, and as such he intimated that be thought their fate not worth foretelling. 'fhe plain English of this not very explicit an nouncement appears to be:—That the llealth of Towns Bill, as it has been mutilated, and the Diplomatic Re lations with Rome Bill will be passed this session ; that ministers will try to persuade the House of Lords to pass the amended Incumbered Estates (Ireland) Bill ; and that if the session lasts long enough the Borough Elections Bill will also be passed. No other measures are to be insisted upon ; for the refusal to speak positively as to the fate impending over the " minor measures" we understand to be a veil thrown over " the massacre of the innocents," as the ancient painter threw a veil over the face of the father in the sacrifice of I ohigenia, least a spectacle too harrowing for human feelings should be presented to the spec tators. . _ . . . _ . . . . It cannot be said that this foreshadowing of actual performance towards the close of the session contrasts very forcibly with the note of promise at its opening. In the QeEns's speech it was intimated that parlia ment had been assembled to pass three measures, but that only two of them would be found necessary. It had been apprehended that government and the Bank of England would lite° required an act of indemnity for a breach of the law, but as they bad not found it necessary to perpetrate the illegal action they contemplated such a measure was un necessary. I'arliamet t was therefore my invited to alter the navigation laws and pass a Health of Towns Bill. There was not much boasting in this ministerial intimation of what it was intended to persuade parliament to do; and one half of the pro mise will be kept. Still it does appear that, seeing members were called from their homes at as uncomfortably early period, and that the session will extend far beyond the usual length of sessions, something more might have been expected from the labours of parliament than a Health of Towna Act, and modifications of the sugar duties and the sedition laws. The fault does not lie entirely at the door of minis ters, though Lord JOIIN'S exculpation of them is something of the lamest. Ministers were prevented, he says, from introducing the bill fur altering the navigation laws so early as could have been wished by the debates on the expediency of increasing the force of the army and navy, and the rate of the in come tax ; and they were obstructed in their attempts to urge it on by the debates on the sugar duties. Now, all these impediments have been of ministers' own creation. Of the sugar debates we will say nothing, fur though the change in the sugar duties appears to us to have been as un called for as it is sure to prove inefficient for good, that is matter of opinion. But the inutility of the debates on the proposed increase in the income tax and augmentation of our defensive establishments is admitted by ministers themselves. Notwithstanding their representations at the beginning of the session that our naval and military force ought to be kept up or rather slightly increased, and that in the dilapi dated state of the national revenue this would render an increase of the income tax necessary ; they have since been convinced, by a more careful perusal of the estimates, that a reduction in the military department may be safely effected, and consequently any addition to taxation dispensed with. The debates, therefore, which impeded the introduction of the bill for altering the navigation laws, and which were provoked by ministers themselves, are now admitted to have been quite uncalled for. But, in truth, ministers might have pleaded that the experience of late years shows that parliament never can contrive to finish the business of the session in the course of the session. The minis terial speech, announcing what measures are to be abandoned, is as unfailing a standing dish as the royal speech announcing what measures are to be brought in. Be the session short or long, let parliament meet before Christmas or protract its deliberations till after the 12th of August, it comes to the same thing in the end. Be the business submitted to the legislature great or little in amount, more than one half of it is begun for the purpose of being left unfinished. Vehe ment debates, personal attacks and recriminations, close divisions and breathless whippers-in, all are but pre ludes to the annual confession that parliament cannot finish the work it has in hand. From the measures of any consequence, one or two are selected to be passed for shame's sake ; the routine business of the session is huddled up anyhow ; and members having spoken themselves hoarse, adjourn to tell curious inquirers that they have done nothing or next to nothing. A phenomenon, of which every session witnesses the recurrence, indicates the existence of some cause enracinated in the very constitution of the legislature. It must be obvious to the most cursory observer that parliament every session undertakes far more busi ness than it is possible to accomplish during the average time for which sessions last. There are the estimates for the year, with all the subordinate inquiries arising out of them, to be got through. There are innumerable questions of the day, relating to foreign, domestic, and colonial policy, to be inquired into. There is always some - branch of civil or judicial administra tion calling for amendment ; some law or other to be rendered less oppressive, more efficient, or more consonant with public opinion. And the great changes in the structure of society, resulting from the silent workings of time, are continually rendering institutional changes of a more or less extensive kind necessary. As if these legitimate functions of a central and supreme legislature did not cut out work suffi cient for parliament, parliament must needs burden itself with other tasks. Not a 'county road can be made nor a branch railway, not a foreigner can be naturalised, not a man or woman can get rid of a pro fligate spouse, but parliament must needs have the doing of it. Parliament encumbers itself unneces sarily with the discharge of many tasks which would be much more efficiently, economically, and expedi tiously performed by local boards or the courts of law. Much might be done to bring the parliamentary business within the compass of parliamentary powers, by a judicious delegation, to inferior administrative bodies or courts of law, of by far the greater part of what is called private business. The immense mass of public business that would still remain might have its despatch accelerated by improved arrangements of parliamentary procedure. Bat after all that is possible towards this end has been done, girl it is to be apprehended that it will be (sand impossible to overtake the annual business of parliament in less time than the year itself. All our judicial tribunals are found no more than sufficient to finish the year's business in the lapse of the year. The time was when justices in eyre in the course of their hasty circuits were found sufficient. The parallel holds exactly in the case of the legislative business of the country. The only chance the legislature has to escape con tinually increasing arrears of public business, is in having its sessions as regular and permanent as the terms of court. of law ; its procedure regulated by as strict a regard to the expediting of business as the forms of process in three courts. But such a change in the habits of parliament would require as great a change in the personnel of the legis 'attire as has taken place in our courts of justice. Time was when non-lawyers presided in the Court of Chancery. None but professional men are now com petent to that task. If the sittings of parliament were to be made permanent, and its members tied down to more strict forms of business, none but pro fessional men could be expected to undergo the toil. Much has been said in favour of such a change by BENTHAM and others who have argued in favour of paid members of parliament. And there can be little doubt that legislation might be followed as a pro lession with quite as much advantage to the public as any of what are called the liberal professions; and with quite as little detriment to the independence and honourable feel ings of thou who might engage in it, as is experi enced by naval and military office's, dignitaries of the church, or leaders at the bar—all of whom think no shame to earn their livings by their respective callings. But the prepossessions or prejudices of society are eo strong on this head, that it were vain to do more than throw out the suggestion, of the expedi ency of adding the legislative profession to the already existing list of liberal professions, for the consideration of the public. THERE is no theme of which the French are more fond than the misgoverned and degraded state of the Irish people. Their writers have always taken it for granted that nothing could be more easy than for the rich to impart a certain share of their superfluities to the poor, and that thus the terrible inequalities of classes, and the miserable condition of the lower or ders ought be :instantly remedied. The French have now got an example at home of the difficulty of deal ing with a labouring class, who, by neglect or other causes, have at once been ;educed to indigence and at the same time inoculated with a rebellious and sub versive creed. _ . . The fact is. that the lower orders of Paris have been reduced to a state of condition and feeling, very like the state of the labouring Irish. They were allowed to suffer want, an insufficiency and uncer tainty of livelihood. They underwent a marked sepa ration from the classes above them, and were made converts to a creed which taught them to consider the upper classes as their natural enemies, and the pro perty of those upper classes as their destined and rightful prey. Communism as it was preached in Paris is, in fact, a kindred philosophy to the repeal religion preached in Ireland. The communist told the French opera tive that the wealth of the citizen was accumulated robbery. His political and sometimes his religious preacher told the same story of the Saxon citizen to the Celtic peasant There was, of course, a certain admixture of spirituality in both doctrines—the one assumed the cloak of patriotism and philanthropy, as the other did of patriotism and Christianity, but both wera essentially material religions which held forth 1 the land of promise with worldly prosperity and ascendancy to the votaries who persevered and. who I dared to march to its conquest. We will not pursue the comparison as we might, through all its ramifications. Suffice it to observe that French politicians have got a little Inland to deal with, and where it was least to be expected, in the heart of their metropolis. French statisticians have shown how very nomads the class of la bourers arc in Paris, how they come and go, are in full work one portion of the year, starve and are ready to rob or fly to any extreme the rest. The principles of religion, or the tics of family, are un known to this population. The clergy have no hold Upon them—no Sunday-school receives their young, or adult place of instruction attracts themselves. They obtain work by the system of tlntipagnonage ; that is, a band is engaged for in the name of a chief, and the employer knows but the chief. Want of family ties, proved by the absence of marriage and the number of illegitimate children, takes from the Parisian the sole motive for being orderly that the Irishman possesses. Amidst such a population communism sent forth its missionaries. Is it to be wondered at that they were successful? _ . And now comes the question of how to purify and to reclaim. Of course, when the overweening confi dence in their numbers and principles tempts such masses to fly to arms, and essay their physical force, nothing is left to society in self-defence but recourse to the same weapons. The citizens arm, march with the regular troops to the conflict, and the weight of cannon decides the contest, applied by the superior resources, which a government and an intelligent and a wealthy class must have at command. But it is in civil as in international contests. The difficulty is not so much to conquer as to know how to make use of victory. General CAVAIGNAC has wielded his sword like a hero, and directed his cannon with all the precision and rifer• If the captor of Toulon. But the victory gained, how to deal with the Hibernians of the Parisian faubourgs ?—for Irish we cannot help considering them in their reckless courage, their extravagant hopes, their distorted views of right and wrong,' their execration of those above them, their readiness to give life or take it, and their inveteracy shown in assassinating those whom they can no longer meet in tLe open field. How to deal with these men? The French nota bles have held council, like the three men in tie fable, and each says " there is nothing like leather." The military man is for martial law, and a camp under Paris. The lawyer is for monster prosecutions. Some madmen of this class are for bringing up the whole of the late provisional government to the bar, and trying them for their con duct in the late anarchic times. Others are for trans porting the labouring population en masse. The clubs are the terror of one, the press the bugbear of another. All forget that there cannot be a perpetual proscription of one class of the population by another; and that a society divided against itself cannot stand, either by the aid of the soldier, the lawyer, or the hangman. It is no doubt but too natural that in a city where the lives of the best and most valuable citizens have been sacrificed in putting down an insurrection that menaced property and society itself—it is but too natural that stern and vindictive feelings should still prevail. It is time, however, that they should begin to give way to others. The acts of great and exemplary severity, called for by the late insurrection, ought already to have been ac complished. And instead of continuing the state of war against the population, treating them like wild beasts, shooting those that are caught, and threatening to transport the thousands already in duraece, some words of peace and clemency ought to be spoken. If any one will trace the degrees and the political events, and the material neglect by which the Parisian population have been led or left to their late criminal attempts, he cannot but come to the con clusion, that the madness of the many comes from the fault of the few, and these few the rulers of the people. Stained as the late uprisings in Paris were by some horrid and inhuman acts, too easily accounted for by that fatal system of allowing a large portion of convicts to swell the ranks and sugzest the crimes of a metropolitan mob ; that population of Paris have given too many proofs of courage, disinterestedness, and of all the nobler civic virtues, not to command a more than ordinary degree of sympathy for its good deeds, and of compassion and regret for its misfortunes and its errors. We should therefore like to hear of the war in the streets and environs of Paris being put an end to by some words and acts of clemency. If the Saxon in tends to remain in Ireland be must conciliate the Celt atter having conquered him. And so must the Pa risian citizen deal with the labouring class beneath Vim, whom he can neither slay nor transport in mass. Moderate French politicians should perceive that it is the very vindictiveness and severity of the riding power, without there being any visible issue or termi nation of this reign of terror, which has awakened the THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, JULY 18, 1848. audacity of the oommunists, and emboldened such men as M. PRUDHON to apply the old agrarian law to all kinds of property. The French middle class may depend upon it, they will not kill communism by severity, aoy more than the Orangemen of Ireland can kill rtpeal-catholicism with penality. The only use of rigour is to pave the way back to a rule of mercy and humanity. FRANCE. MONDAY, 11.30. A.M. The state into which the colonies have been thrown by the measure of slave emancipation is most alarm ing, and the sea-port towns more immediately con nected with them have within the last week, through their delegates, had serious conferences with General Cavaignac, with a view to some measure of instant relief. The immediate repeal of the emancipation decree is urged, together with the recal of the commis sioners sent to the colonies to superinted its execution, and the appointment of new commissioners of less ultra opinions from amongst persons who had lived in toe colonies, and knew the respective in terests of the colonists and slaves. General Cavaignac admitted that the French colonies were in a most alarming state from being thus delivered into the hands of inexperienced men • but he believed that there would be danger in recalling the commissioners now in functions there, as their revel would lead tile slaves to believe that the govern ment was withdrawing the act of enfranchisement, and would not that impression cause the tire to burn still more fiercely ? Ile promised to get the matter ex amined with all possible speed, and requested the delegates to send in such suggestions as their experi ence might point out as useful. Amongst the propositions presented by the delegates is one which General Cavaignac appeared to approve of— namely, to provide as quickly as possible for eupplying: Martinique, Guadeloupe, Cayenne, and Reunion (Bourbon) with provisions. The delegates proposed to the government to decree an advance of three mil lions of francs, payable, one fifth each month, to be divided amongst the four colonies in the following proportion: -- Reunion, 1,500,000 f. ; Guadeloupe, 600,0001'.; Martinique, 600,000 E; Cayenne, 3110,01.10 f. Reunion, they state, is menaced with frightful evils ; and if to the want of subsistence should be added the immediate emancipation of the slaves, the crops would be abandoned for want of workmen. It is said that a bill will be shortly presented in the National Assembly on this matter. The assassinations in the streets and public ways continue to be reported daily. On Friday morning, says the Gazette des nibunaux, as a detachment of the Gardu Mobile, quartered at Courbevoie, was escorting a convoy of gunpowder from Mount Valerien through the Bois de Boulogne, one of the Eder!, quite a youth, quitted the line in the Allee de Passy, and laid himself down in the thicket, saying, that he was so much overcome with the heat and fatigue, that he would rather undergo a fortnight's imprisonment in the Salle do Police than march a step further. As the convoy continued to move on, the captain thought it better to leave tlie tired man behind than lose time in forcing him to rejoin his com pany. At day-break on S.ituiday.moining some of his comrade returned to seek him at the spot where they had left him, and found him dead, with seven knife wounds in his body. Neither auy part of his accoutrements, nor of Life. which to had in his pocket, had been taken from him. The l'Orie of last night says "At noon to-day, as a greradier of the Thli Regiment of the line was crossing tte Pont d'Arcole, he was stabbed in the back with a knife. He was taken to the Hotel de Ville. The assassin made his escape." The examinations for the prosecution of the partici pators in the attack on May lath upon the Nativaal Assembly, and in the events of June, have given rise to nemerous new arrests. The total number ot insurgent prisoners remaining in custody yesterday was 6,226. We learn from g .od authority (says the Siee/e) that the French government has given orders to the commanders of its squadron in the Mediterranean to salute the Sicilian national flag. This decision, in the absence of the usual diplomatic formula, amounts to a recognition. Most ot the minor theatres will be reopened this evening. It is said M. Marie, President of the Assembly, will succeed M. Bethmont as Minister of Justice. We have received the Madrid mails of the llth anal 12th, with the journals and correspondence of that capital. All the members of the cabinet had gone to La Granja. Our correspondent represents the pros pects of the Carlists as being gloomy, and the movements in the northern provinces as a complete failure. The Infanta Josefa, on hear ing of the royal decree annulling her rights, in consequence of the runaway marriage, declared that she would renounce her bridegroom, and accordingly let that individual depart for }ranee, refusing to accompany him. By the last advices from Catalonia, of the 11th July, it appears that Cabrera passed the nights of the 4th and sth at San Jayure de Fontaya, a little village to the north of Bergs. General Enna and the commandants of the columns of Ripoli and Bergs pursued him incessantly, but no new engagement had taken place. It is beyond doubt that Cabrera is very dissatisfied with the attitude of the country as regards him. lie expected from what he had been told, an easy victory, and that he could haseentered Aragon without firing a shot, and have found himself at the head of 20,000 men. lie would willingly re enter France. Many of his officers and adherents have left him ; and, if reports be to be credited, he has not 200 men. Tranqutllity continues at Barcelona.

GERMANY. . I'RUSSIA.—The Berlin and Cologne journals se verally of the 15th and Inth have reached us. The intelligence from this state is contained in the follow ing letter from our correspondent : COLOGNE, JULY 16. The following is a brief analysis of the financial account lately given in the Berlin assembly, by the Minister of Fi nance:—During the last few months the revenues of the country had necessarily diminished, particularly as the sale of timber and of iron from the national forests and mines had been very languid. There had been a falling off in the pro. duce of the direct taxes on account of the disturbances in various parts of the kingdom, particularly in the duchy of Posen. The revenue from indirect taxes had also diminished. The reduction of one-third of the duty on flour, and other measures in favour of the working classes, had contributed to the diminution of the revenue. Upon all those grounds he (the minister) would calculate the deficiency of this year's revenue at eight millions of thalers. Whilst the revenues had been decreasing, it had been found strictly necessary to increase the expenditure by 221 millions of dialers, of which 10 millions were required by the army, in addition to the ordinary war budget. In round numbers, this year's ex penditure would exceed the ordinary one by 30 millions of thalers, even without placing the entire army on war tooting This surplus expenditure would be partly covered by the i ' funds in the national treasury, which, n the beginning , of the year, amounted to some 15 millions ; and partly by loans and new taxes. With respect to the loan—in some r spects a forced one—no me having property of less value than 4.000 thalers or a less ;1.. zoom than 400 thalers (about 601. sterling), will be called ti sere to subscribe to it. The amount of contribution to the lsan will be proportionate to the income of the pant liable to subscribe, and will vary from 1 to 2 per cent, He .'u , . t of abandon the hope, I however, that the voltint: rt loan eonld furnish all the funds required. The incom • tr.‘ would net be introduced this year. A full account of the funds in the national treasury from 1820 to 1847 would be rd. before the finance com mittee. He was of opinion that portions of the national demesnes should be sold in aL , •tr• nes, and he should shortly introduce a bill to that effect. (Cheers.) The minister then referred to the Seekaidluv, the great trading com pany of Prussia (corresponding to s.:nie respects with the HandetAlaatschappy of Holland), vhi.di was establisned during the last century, and which cimbines the lti-inetts of a large banking with that of a commercial and u facturiiig company. This state inst , tution is placed under the management of the minister oi In his speech, that functionary expressed the n.‘i nion that the state should nor, as a newral ride, be concerned in induattial speculations or underral.in:, a. It was his intention, therefore, to propose that, so so: a- public credit is restored, and private enterprise aroused, the establishment of the Seehandlung be disvosed of, even if the state should greatly lose by the sale. He was happy to state, however, that the Seehandlung had :t 'ate given pecuniary accommodation, at a time, too, when pt 'vale banken refused it, and had continued to a ff ord employmen. to many individuals. With reference to the state tre sivy. the minister asserted that, towards the end of June 1840, it contained more than 12 millions of thalers, to Which was added, from that year to 1847, the clear sum of more than seven millions. On the Ist of Jan., 1848, the national debt amounted to 126 millions of thalers, which the minister con tended was not a large sum for a state like Prussia. According to the Prensmehe Stoats Anzeiger, Herr Camp. hewn MIA been nominated president of the council of the German empire. This statement, however, although it ap pears in the journals of Berlin, requires confirmation. Per haps " the wish is father to the thought." According to the Posen Gov fle, the Polish inhabitants— judging by all appearances—are preparing for a new in surrection. The following significant paragraph appears under a Posen correspondence of July 10, M the Frank furter Journal of the 15th " General Von Brunneck, our present cominandai.t, does not, like General Von Pfuel, to whom we ars all at tached, look for support to the German populaion ; on the contrary, he keeps himulf isolated from them. On that ac count we draw more closely than ever to our highlT esteemed governor, Lieut.-General Von S:einicker " the intelli gence conveyed in that paragraph is satisfactory, inasmuch as it shows that the first.nsmed general officer does not in terpret the words " Polish re-organisation of the duchy of Posen " into " you must keep down the Pules and support the Germans alone "—an interpretation which was practi cally enforced by Gen. Von. Colomb. Another point in that paragraph must not escape notice. Yon will keby it that whilst Gen. Von Brunneck sympathises with the Poles, and attempts to awry out the solsmnly and repeatedly promised national (Polish) re-organisation, Gen. Von Steinacker is driving the cmtrary way. Thin appears to be another repe tition of the solemn farce, or rather the sanguinary tragedy, of Gen. Von Willisen versus Gen. Von Colomb. The trial of the four persons charged with being ring leaders of the rioters, who, on tha 14th ult., forcibly pene trated into the arsenal in Berlin, commenced in that city on the 12th, and was continued on the two following days. A considerable reduction'of the stump duty on newspapers (native and foreign) will be shortly proposed in Prussia by the Minister of Finance. . _ . It is asserted in the Mein sad Mosel Zeilung, that many persona who assisted in raising the barri.dea in Berlin, in March last, were paid for their labour, in bad French coin, resembling Napoleons (20 franca). Nearly all the creditors of the banking house of Abraham Schaffhausen of this city have agreed ►o carry on the busi ness for their joint benefit. The pamphlet of Princo Adalbert, of Prussia, respecting the formation of a German fleet, is exciting much attention throughout the confederation. His royal hiahneas sets forth hat as a minimum the fleet should consist of 20 ships of the line, 10 frigates, 30 steamer,, 40 gun boats, and 80 gun sloops ; urg , a the neces,ity of pas-mg a law compelling mariners, in case of a war, to enter the fleet, and asserts that in the year 1847, " the Prussian merchant navy (vessels ex ceeding 2.5 tone) and the coasting trade employed 8,411 men, exclusive of fishermen." The prince, however, does not enter at all upon the " main chance," the cost of forming such a navy, or rather, the mode in which the needful can be raised. It is now all but certain that the German republicans have resolved to make another desperate attempt after the harvest has been got in. During the last few days numerous persons belonging to the work ing classes have left for Switzerland, is order to join Hecker's partisans. The Freiburg Gazette declares in rout.d terms that in Mayence, Treves, and other re• publicans are regularly enlisted for the corps in SwitzLrland. The governin: nt of Basle (campagne) has resolved at last, according to the tiarbruhe Zeaung, to remove Hecker horn Multenz (a place lying quite adjacent to the German fron tiers), and to assign him Waldenburg as his temporary resi dence. In a letter from the above republican leader, pub lished in the Neue Rbeinische Zeitung of this day, he de clares that all the statements respecting tho enlistment of partisans fur him are false.. • KUSTRIA:--We have the Vienna journals of the 12th., up to which date the new Austrian ministry had not been formed, at least had not been announced in Vienna. The following is from a correspondent : VIENNA, MAY 10.—The new ministry has not y. t been formed. Indeed, Dobblhoff is only empowered to propose a ministry for the acceptation of the Archduke, who is still at Frankton. The names spoken of are—Weiss-nberg, Foreign Affairs ; Dobblhoff, Home • Schwartzcn , or Hobert, Commerce ; Meyer, or Stith, or Hubner,i Finance ; Auers berg, War ; Lttour desired to keep the war-office. Neither Radetski nor Windischgratz will obey any more orders from Vienna. . . . . One hundred and eghty.six deputies attended the prepara• tory meeting. The Gallican peasants crowded to the right, apparently of the unwashed, and indulged in the most aboriginal mode of blowing their noses. When .t was ;.st; to the vote that ne language should be used tat German, these gentlemen roue for the affirmative...nel were consmerabl, surprised, when made aware, that tnev naa One hundred and twenty memoert tnree.fourths of 'le assembly, crowded to the extreme kr. We have accounts from Pest' 12 .(.11. The Hungarian troops bad taken- ixisisese.on of the town of Barasd, but had exec^ . r.zeed a check near the village of St. Mically. The Hungarian troops amount to 52,000 men, who will be shortly reinforced by 40,000 voluntaries. The fortifications of Arod have likewise been got into a state of defence. The insurgents have plundered and fired Szolos and St. Michael. In the numerous ministerial conferences with the deputies the ministry has already secured the ready assistance of the lower house, and can therefore take its measure without hindrance. The proposal of the Archduke John, that one of the Hungarian ministry and the Bann Jolla chich should repair to Vienna, to consult about the settlement of the existing difference, has been edicted by our ministry, which refuses to act with the traitorous Jellachich, and will negotiate with none but deputies of the Illirians legally elected. The other proposal of the Atchduke John respecting the union of the Hungarian ministry of finance with the general Austrian ministry has met with an equally unfavourable reception. In Carlowitz a fearful, bloody engagement has taken place, and the whole city is now standing in flames. In Neu satz, also, there have been bloody scenes. In Agram numerous arrests have been made. Private intelli gence which we have received states that the Ilun garians have t aken the city of Varasd in. The Hungarian soldiery, who are now aivided into three encamp ments, number 25,000 men, but the ministry have re solved to raise an additional levy of 200,000 men. The intelligence from Trieste is to July 9. The governor of thr , coast has to-day received the follow ing despatch from General Albini, commander of the Sardinian squadron in the bay of Trieste: BAT OF TRIESTE, JULY 9,—May it please your Excel lency—l have the honour to inform you that in consequence of orders just received from my' government, the squadron which I have the honour to command will permit the en trance into the harbour of Trieste, as well as the departure from thence, of all merchant vessels, those under the Austrian flag not excepted, provided they have not on board either on their arrival or on their departure troops, arms, warlike stores, or articles which are deemed contraband iu naval war, for which purpose they will be subject to examination.

TRANKFORT.—The memorable declaration of the k'ng Hanover (referred to in recent communi cations) was the subject of discussion in the Frankfort assembly on the lath nst. M.ll esendonck presented a motion to the effect that the central provisional power should repulse, by the intermediary of its re sponsible ministers, the pretension and threats of the Hanoverian ministers. The deputies from Hanover presented a declaration in which they stated that they did not consider themselves to be deputies for a particular state, but deputies of the German propie, and the terror of the royal letter would not prevent them from fulfilling their duty towards Germany. A warm debate, during which many amendments to M. Wesendonek's motion were proposed, ensued. The assembly did not consider this declaration of the Hanoverian deputies explicit enough. Ultimately the following amendment was pat and adopted, M. IVe sendonck abandoning his motion : " The National Assembly decides that the central provisional power shall demand the recognition by Hanover of that power unconditionally." The Assembly then adopted the conclusions of the committee, declaring that the prohibition by Austria of the exportation of specie was detrimental to the other German states and in compatible with the unity of Germany. The King of Bavaria and the Duke of Nassau have arrived in Frankfort.

The evening has passed off without any attempt having been made upon the clubs. It is said that this has been caused by the puVication in the Nation of this day proclaiming a meeting of the clubs to-mor row, and a marching in ranks or sections of five each to a place to be indicated. That place—where they are to assemble—is not yet known, but is to be communicate.] to the clubs either this night or at the morning parade to-morrow. Rumour names several places—Santry, two miles from town ; Blue Bell, about the same mstance, and Swords is also named, seven miles from town. The police will, there is no doubt, be called on—and will interfere with the parade. Hence the postponement of to-night's eperatious. The cautionary notice of the police against the purchaseseditious newspapers . ' had no effect to !ay, which rather surprised the public. So late as e'clock this evening I purchased a Felon, but N :nder accompanied the sale with a request that 1.. -:•eui. be hidden. At nine o'clock, however, the :•ass was a:tered, since from and after that hour the firaht.). - ed the sale, and one newavender was lodgeu tc Heii: - v-street office, and the charge entered was 'or "having exhibited for sale a seditious newspaner.

Since the great era of Dublin newsparers 1 there was no such sale as that of the seditiot. loi..uals o. to-day. Mr. Meagher has, as was anticipated, availed him self of the privilege conferred upon him by law, and traversed in pro.r., until the next assizes of Limerick, which will be held inMarcb, 1849. Shoo ELECTION.—Mr. Somers is once more member for Sligo borough. He was decl..red the sitting member on Friday evening.

M'DOUALL, THE CHART tor.—Dr. M'Douall, the chartist, and lately a member of the National Convention, was apprehended during Sunday night at his lodging., the °delftllows' Arms public-house, Ashton-under•Lyne, on a charge of unlawful assembling, sedition, and riot. The time of his apprehension was several hours after midnight, and a rescue having been talked of, he was taken to the town-hall under an escort of police and military, and a military guard was placed before the hall. Yesterday he was brought for examination before the mayor and magistrates, when the court was crowded with people, and the large open space in front of it was also filled with working men, but all appeared to b • peaceable. The wit nesses were policemen, and the tenor of their evidence was that a gathering took place on the previous Monday night at the Charlestown Chapel,Ashton, when M'llouall delivered a lecture, from which all reporters and police. men were excluded, and that after the meeting was over, M'llouall headed a procession to the Odd Fellows' Arms, from a front window, of which he addressed his followers, urging them to arms, and inciting them to acts of violence. The witness said guns were after wards discharged, but behind the house. After the evidence of several policemen had been given as to what al'llouall had uttered, Mr. Newton, deputy-constable of Ashton, produced the placard calling the meeting in the Charles Town Meeting House. In consequence of the placard he thought it his duty to attend the meeting. Had been to the chapel be fore, and was not prevented. It said " admission one peony." He did not offer money, because they did not allow Lim to enter so far as where the money was taken. The meeting purported to be a lecture. They prevented his entrance by force, and said neither he nor any other constable could go in. Ile said it was not " Mr. Newton thi y refused admis sion to, but the special constable." M'Dousll afterwards came and was allowed to go in, and he attempted after that to go, but was again refused admission. Saw no one refused cut the constables and a little boy. There have been various oti'er meetings of the chartists out of doors, but he bad not atteteded any in-door ones. Was of belief the inhabitants were alarmed, and had been told by them if a stop n a- . rit put to these meetings, there would be 1 bad result before long. They had a tendency to induce people to organise and arm themselves. Was also trld last night that it " we had gone to the meeting we should crrtainly have lost our lives." He apprehended tle misoner tills morning, and showed hint the warrant pro- Loud, charging him with unlawful assembling, sedition, tad riot. head it over to him afterwards at the office. He raid the warrant wu filer el, on account of erasures and altera tions, and insists. that it should be produced in the some state. and it was. Amongst the articles taken from his pocket was a pocket-boot. There are dates which start with Manchester, July 2 " : it has the names of twenty towns; it appears to be a list of engagements, partly ful filled anu partly to be fulfilled. There was a Song horn the RUA Mot. in It There were no love letters ; Mr. M'llouell told him whit a ere love letters. and those were returned. Among the letters was one dated ' Thomas street, llradfcrd, July 14," which said that a person named William Bateman had been apprehended; that he dad been a drill master, to whoa, they had given money to keep away, but he had delivered himself up. There were other letters also. Cross-examined by Mr. Roberts: Went to the chapel to hear the lecture. West for the purpose of giving eviu,ence if he heard anything sedi tious. Sent his officers lot the same purpose. Supposed he was not admitted because the parties did not like it. Was not bound to answer the question when the information on which the prisoner was taken was laid. The warrant was placed in his hands on Saturday.—Re examined: Recol lected a meeting some time diem to appoint a deputy to the National Convention, and MTh:mall was appointed. Had not seen him attend any other meeting since till the present. —By Mr. Roberts: 'lnc fear of the inhabitants WWI not only against out-door meetings but secret in-door meeting.. Had heard there were several hundred pike' produced. One person wu pricked, and it was thought it would have been fatal.—By the mayor. Had never been reused to attend publichouse meetings, but had been told that he would be in future.—This concluded the case, and Mr. Roberta, the attorney who had mom-examined the witnesses, said M'Douall himself would addre,s. the magistrates. hi'Dausll then spoke for upwards of half-an-hour, denying that he had urged violence, but said he had expressly cautioned the people against it. He was proceeding to call wilneues when our report left. - - THE LEIGIf PEERAGE CAGE. — Barnett, the prin cipal witness in the late charge of murder agsinst Lord Leigh, at Warwick, died about fifteen miles from Man. cheater, on Sundae. An inquest was holding yesterday, the result of which will reach us to-morrow. RACE ROUND lEELAND.—The Liverpool Albion state; that a novel match, for 2501., has been made by Mr. Naylor, the bank •r, ar.d Mr. Thomas Ripley.

The time of return will of course be eat:rely dependent on the weather and the winds that may be met with. IrollEblllliZ. RIOT AND RESCUE 0;A CHARTIST AT BRAD roit».—On Sunday morning a disturbance took place in the vicinity of Manchester-road, Bradford, a district where a great number of chartists reside. It appears that the police, who have been for some tease on the look-out for the noto rious •' Wat Tyler, the chartist blacksmith," who bad made a great number of pikes for iale, had got intimation that he had returned to his domicile in Adelaide street, Manchester road, from which he had been absent some six or seven weeks. la consequence, four of them went to the place, one armed, to effect his capture, but no sooner was their mission made known in the neighbourhood thin a hue and cry was raised, and the neighbouring inhabitants *era mustered in a few minutes. The police found their man, and seized his person, but the handcuffs with which they were provided proved too small for his brawny wrists, and they failed to secure them. Wat effected his escape. In returning to the Court-house the police were very roughly handled, being beaten with bludetons and hit with stones, by which they were very severely injured, though they es caped with their lives. A number of special constables were immediately called out and a detachment of the m.litary were marched to the New Inn, at the end of M. ncheater road, to be ready in cave of need. The tied force then pa raded up Manchester-road and traversed several of the adjacent streets, where crowds of person, were. assembled, and during their renembulations they apprehended five persons, between the ag , s of lb and 30, for having taken part in the affray. All this occurred during 'be time of divine service in the forenoon ; and as the affair became more generally known considerable anxiety as to the future peace of the town was felt in many quarters, especially when eon eidered in connexion with the c reumstance that on Saturday last preen placards were posted in the town of Bradford, an nouoclng that Mr. John \Vest, "one of the commissioners elected by the chartists of England," would deliver a lecture on Odsall-moor, near Wibsey, on Sunday afternoon, at four o'clock; and that he would also address the chartists of Bradford in an open space of ground opposite the Philadel phia chapel, in Wapping, on Monday (yesterday) evening, at seven o'clock, on the sulkytt of the people's charter, when a collection would be made for the defence fund. With re ference to this latter assembly the magistrates of Bradford have caused notice to be given of the illegality of the meet ing, and of their determination to prevent it from taking place. In order to carry out their views the special °rntable* and military were ordered to be on duty at five o'clock. Some of the more earnest of the chartists had declined their inten tion to persevere in holding their meeting; but it was cot expected that they would succeed in their objet'. Yes terday afternoon, after the magistrates had been to view Ste site of the intended place of meeting, and to concert withthe officers commanding the military here as to the most suitable arrangements to be adopted with regard to the projected evening meeting, they attended again at the Court-house, when the several persons who had been apprehended for riot and rescue were brought up for examination—namely, John Breaks, of hike, shoemaker, aged '2l; Mark Cockerhem, of Horton, woolcomber, '23; J ohn Spene-r, of the name place, mechanic, 22; John Mean , of the same place, woolcomber, 19; and Barrett Long, of the gam, place, mill worker, 18. The investigation was proceeding when our report was despatched. CHARGE OF lINLAWFUL DRILLINO.—At the Brad ford Court-house, yesterday, Edward Harley, a chartist orator, was brought up for further examination on a charge of unlawful drilling, but, as the case was not made out to the satisfaction of the magistrates, the defendant was ordered to he disharged. Harley was, however, immediately arrested by a constable from Bingley, charged with a similar offence committed near that place, which is in another division or wapentake of the West Riding. He was conveyed away in custody. CHARGE OF FORGING BAN KERS'NOTES AT LEEDS.— Yesterday a respectable. locking person, who gave his name Samuel Battison H Ames, and who was statsd to have been a solicitor, at Hull, but who has been latterly living in London, was brought up for examination belore the mayor, at the Court.hou,e, Leeds, charged with having uttered several forged dl. notes of the Leeds bank of Beck-ft and Co. The prisoner was apprehended on Sunday morning by Mr. Superintendent J..mes, of the Leeds police, at his lodgings in the suburbs in Leeds, where be bad bt en staying for the last three weeks.. Several witnesses were examined, who proved that the accused had purchased goods of them in small quantities, such as a piece of hem, a bottle of rum, linen arapory, tea, &c., which he had cleave carried away himself and bad paid for in notes of the Leeds B.thk, which 1. roved to be forged, five of the cases occurring on the 7th July, the day before the forgery was detected. Each of the notes bore dates the " Ist Jan., 1513," and purported to be signed " For Beckett and Co., Mr ilium Beckett." Notwithstand ing the oaths of the several witnesses whose depaitions were taken, the prisoner said be was innocent of the charge, and that as to the eases of the ith July, ho should be ab!e to prove an alibi. He was in consequence remanded for further examination on Wednesday next, to afford him an oppor tunity of doing so. ESSEX TENANTS OF THEMUCIIY OF LANCASTER.
