THAT the streets of Loadon are beeeesiag each year increasingly obstructed, and that the working classes of the metropolis are, in consequence of each successive improvement in the street architecture of the metropolis, more expensively and more miserably lodged, are two propositions which, if not equally notorious, are equally undeniable. The first griav- SACO is patent to all ; the second, and far more serious evil, requires mon inquiry than the majority of boy people will be at the pains to make. Everybody knows asimethieg of Fleet-street and Cbeapside— few turn aside into Bleed:rip Heart Yard. The Railway mim e which has poured in upon the heart of the kingdom an ever circulating current of pro vincial life, has formidably increased the deadlock of the great London thoroughfares. When railways were regarded as a 'port of permitted evil, the main object was to keep their metropolitan termini as far as possible out of town. A necera. sassy result has beta to make interjeoent Lew don the perpetual theitre of a scrambling and tumultriona traffic from one remote terminus to another. Serried files of railway omnibuses, flying squadrons of railway cabs, the still more formidable impedimenta of railway vane, choke at all hours the more frequented lines of transit from north to south and from east to west. Nobody who has ever made a race against time from Paddington or Easton square to London or Waterloi bridge, will be apt to forget the discomforts of that middle passage. It is no figure of speech to say that you can accomplish the 30 miles between London-bridge and Brighton more quickly than the five which separate the Great Western from the South Eastern terminus. Ob viously this is a state of things which will some way or other have to be pot an end to. The expense, discomfort and indecency, the moral and physical unhealthiness, of the Lon don working man's dweiliog, are admitted evils of • far graver class. We do not now mean to dwell upon them. The point we would urge is that they are growing, not diminishing, evils. The difficulty experienced by a working man, em ployed in or near the centre of Londou, of obtaining anything like decent accommodation at a moderate price, is a rapidly increasing difficulty. Every hook metropolitan improvement makes the matter wares. Field•lane and the Rookery are gone, but their former inmates remain. They have been dispersed into quarter, once tenanted by the more decent asnang the poor. Where are the working men's lodgiog-hoases along that cheerless city solitude which under the style of Victoria-street stretches howeekas and desolate from Holborn bridge to Clerkenwell ? Or look at the palatial watchman which bees mods the *oath aide erf Cannon-street the stateliest has of street ambits's titre is London: how many abodes of decent pottery have been swept away to form that greatest and best of our metropolitan improvements. In all that district is there a working maa's lodging to bs found ? Of mum there is nor, and the reason b plain. Working men's lodging-houses cannot be built when the selling priers of land is from 1,000,0001. to 2,000,0001. an acre. What, then, are we to do in order to remedy the serious and iocrea-iug inconvenience of obstructed streets, the far graver and equally increasing evil of overeiewded Leaden dwelling-housse fur lb* poor? Mr. Class ns PRADION, the City Solicitor, thinks be has discovered a plan which, if properly carried out, will furnish • satisfactory answer to both these questions. This plan of the City Solicitor's is so new one; with characteristic energy he has bent advocating it for years; be has thrown his whole soul into it, and yesterday he had the opportunity of submitting his views to • public meeting con vened by the LORD MAYOR, attended by many of the leading City firms, and addressed by Lord lotto Ruasem, who dwelt with much force and feeling oat the mineable nature of the scrum modation now available for the working classes of the Metropolis. The main objects of Mr. PEARI4ON'S scheme are twofold; first, to relieve the streets of the Metropolis of their present enormous over pressure ; secondly, to supply a cheap means of con veyance for the working men of London to the suburb*, where in dwellings adapted to their means (like those in the &layer omen's'', in the neighbour hood of Pule) they may find decent accommodation, at a great increne of comfort and decrease of met. His principal means of amomplisbing kis first Olsen sr* • system of subterranean railmads, radiating ham a common oentre (say Farringdon-street ass Smithfield) to the different termini of the Metropo litan Railways. It is obvious that this plan, if capable of being carried out—as to which we are not in a position to offer any opinion —would relieve London of that por tion of the increased street obstruction which has been thrown upon it by the through traffic from one group of Railway Termini to another. The omnibuses, cabs, and v►ns which now choke our thoroughfares in conveying passengers and goods from Shoreditch and Fenchurch-street to Padding ton and Nue Elms, from Ruston-square and cross to London-bridge and the Waterloo-road, would be tamed under, instead of over, the Armee of Londe., to the great and manifest advantage of all by shoot these streets are frequented. The ad vantages of a central terminus in the heart of London, except as a means of thus disposing of the through traffic, may be more dosibtful. Wherever a antral terming is establined ao an almost of business Is unavoidable. What space anywhere sear thi centre of London would snake foe accommodating the outgoing and incoming Railway Traffic of *1 Metropolis at a terminus which would in reset be a focus of looomotion to and from every quarter of the globe ? Would not the stream of goods and pas sengers oonvergiag to, or radiating from, this centre at all hours, produce upon certain lines of thorough tire, at least la great a " block" as any that now exiats ? Thin and mai filar queetioos must all be asked end oaddretorily answered before Mr. CLUBS Pitman's schema can be accepted as an lagarrameat in as far as it goes to con stitute a sastnil terminus. As a means of sup plying cheap transit for the working men of the Metropolis to the suburbs, it appears to promise a fair mesons of success. If the calculation be well founded, that the working man can be remunera .. . _ lively carried to and fro for moderate distances at Is. • week, the difficulty from expense appears solved. Four or five miles out of town be could no doubt get better accommodation for three shil lings • week than he gets in town for five shillings: the fixed payment, then, of I I • shilling a week to the railway would give him a more decent lodging at a cheaper rate, in purer air, and more free from the contaminating neighbourhood of those degraded and criminal claws whose nightly avocations are in the thick of great cities. These are, no doubt, solid advantages; but here, too, there is something to be considered on the other side. Would it be well to hare the vast city spread out immeasurably, till it fills and overflows the great basin in which it lies, with miles upon miles of viliagos (terriers ? Would health, moral or physical, really be promoted in the long run by such means? Is it wise thus to overbuild all that yet remains to no of the country in oar borders? is it well—and this is a grave question—to habituate the working elasses to dwell thus apart in separate camps?, In stating these dim cattle', we only suggest them as points to be duly considered and dealt with before any scheme like that proposed by Mr. Peso/ins can be definitively adopted. At prolog it is only in an inchoate state, said we willingly admit that its originator has • fair right to ask that it should receive the respectful and careful consideration of all those interested in improving the metropolitan thoroughfares and in raising the social status of the metropolitan poor. tbt Court.

SECEETAIT EDXONET MEEEAOZ DATED THE MST Or OCTOBER.. CENTRAL INDIA. The rebels under Tantia Topes, altar their defeat on the 19th of October, fled towards Tall Behut on the river Bet wah. They seem to have remained at that place but a short time, and then to have doubled back from Bnithpoora in a southern direction, pursued by the fame under Major-General Michel. The rebel force reached Dayrodh, on the Saugor road, on the 23rd of October. On the 23th they were at Carrse, where General Michel came up with them. They made no stand, and fled in direction. 600 rebels were cut up by the cavalry. Taatia Topes after this defeat pushed on with his remain ing force cid Rat hgur towards the Nerbudda, which he crowed between Hoshungabad and Naraingpore on the night of October 31, and the morning of the Ist inst. His force now consists of about 7,000 men, With 20 elephants, and* number of camels. It is reported that his men are very mach dispirited. The forces under Brigadiers Smith , and Park, re spectively, and detached bodies of cavalry, wider Lieutenant Kerr and other officers, are in close pup. suit. The Resident at Hyderabad has issued orders for the assembly of a force at Omerigotty, thirty miles north-east from Ellichpore, to assist in arrest ing the progress of the rebels. This force will epe eist of 1,200 infantry, 1,600 cavalry, and 12 guns. A force from Kamptee has also moved out for the saute purpose. By the latest amounts Tantia Topes was in the Sindwara district of the Nagpore province. H. L ANDERSON, Secretary to Government. Bombay Castle, Nov. 9. Malta, Nov. 30. MONTANARO. The following Telegram from Mr. Acting Consul- General Green, was received at the Foreign Office, this morning, at 2 A.X.: ALEXANDRIA, Nov. 26, 1858. The steamer Madras arrived at Boer, from Bom bay, on the 21st inst., with Bombay dates to 9th inst. The Royal Proclamation was imued throughout India on the lit of November, and appears to have given great satisfaction to all parties. General Michel has gained • fourth victory over the rebels in Central lathe. He surprised them in a place called Kurrai, on 15th October, when 3,000 were utterly dispersed, threw away their arms, and were panned for nine miles. The rebels were held by Bandanowsb.

ADMIRAL IPANSHAWR, Malta, Nov. 30, 1868. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. IMPERIAL PARDON TO M. MONTALEMBERT. The Moniteur announces that the Emperor, in consequence of the anniversary of the 2nd December, relieves M. de Montalembert from the penalties of the sentence passed upon him. (Fait grace d M. de Montalembert de la peinepromoncle centre lu I.) ()PROW OUR OWN PARIS. WZDNIIIDA.T BVININO. The Cons !jetsam's., announce that the Emperor and Empress will not return to Paris till Sunday next, and that their guests of the " last series" will remain at the Palace of Compidgne till Saturday. Ido not know whether thin statement is meant to be a contradiction of the nem of yesterday that the Emperor will be present at the inauguration of the new barrack. at the Chiteatt d'Eure, on the Boule vards, to-morrow. The two statements are not incompatible. He may very possibly run up from Compidgne for the particular purpose, although the court may remain there a few days longer. The settlement at the Banns to-day went off very heavily. The Rents fell 30c. for cash and 20.. for amount, closing at 74fr. 20e. in each case. Mo biller fell 10fr. The Orleans Railway fell 7fr. 50e., and ell the other principal lines from 2(r. 600. to sfr. The lowest prices of the day were quoted at the close. The Chamber of Commerce of Paris, which is rich enough to be able to throw away money, yes terday Toted a subscription for the Suez Canal. _ _ The city of Paris having definitively abandoned the project for building a new opera-house on the site of the recently demolished Hotel d'Osmond, on the Boulevards, opposite the Rae de la Pale, It is Mated that the ground will be devoted to a public promenade—a sort of minor Palais Royal, roofed over with glue, flanked by gay shops, and orna mented with lawns, fountains, and flower-beds. Although the scheme of building any opera-house on this particular spot is given up, I do not learn that the idea of having a new one somewhere else is renounced. You will remember that there was a plan for building one on an enormous scale in the Champs /Myths. The remarkable mansion of Jacques Cmur in that city of bourgeois palaces, Bourget, has just been purchased by the state. A sub-lieiteasnt of the Srd Hawn, M. de Mornay, the grandson (through his mother) of Marshal Sault, bas been authorised by the Emperor to assume the surname of Soalt and Dalmatia. The dukedom is extinct. M. Pierre Jean de Kook, a brother of the cele brated novelist, Paul de Kock, has just died. The deeeassd was a colonel of the Imperial Guard of the first empire, an officer of the Legion of Honour, and a chevalier of the Order of St. Louis. One of his brothers was formerly Minister of War in Holland. The many English readers of the light writings of Panl de Kock will perhaps be surprised to learn that he belonged to so distinguished • family. 13i, DECEMBER 2,fiailet A USTRIAN ITALY. MILAN, Nov. 28. A medal, bearing the motto " Emmanuel King of Italy " is being secretly distributed. The most absurd rumours are in circulation. One of the current stories is that Russia having demanded 900 millions from Austria for the expenses of the war in Hungary hi 1949, Austria, having no other means of payment, proposed to sell Lombardy to Piedmont. AUSTRIA. Count Buol and his colleagues have discovered that Austria needs the services of a newspaper press. This, according to advice from Vienna of the 28th ult., appears to be the explanation of a measure previously announced by telegraph—the reduction by one-half of the stamp duty on news paper published in the empire. Attacks are now multiplied against Austria abroad, and moral in fluences are at work throughout the empire for its disintegration, but to answer and counteract these the Vienna press is at present quite inadequate. No great results, however, can be expected to follow a mere reduction of the stamp duty from two kreusers to one krtuser. Newspapers cannot flourish in a country which has no national repre sentation nor other organ of political life, but is instead bound in a concordat. CANADA. (IT YAGINNTIC TZLZORAPII.)

THE RUSSIANS AT Vi (nor ova own COIIIIBPONDIerf3 Vlllama, on the Mediterranean, Nev. 27. The Russian deer, which has received orders to concentrate in Genoa, and to escort the Grand Duke Constantine to this port, is daily receiving fresh strength. On Sunday lut the screw frigate Pelican left here for Genoa, and was followed on Wednesday by the screw line-of-battle ship Retrizan, which landed a portion of her stores in the buildings now owned by the Imperial government. Yesterday evening a Russian screw war corvette, the Baku, from the Adriatic station, anchored here, while two fi igates from the Baltic are expected here either this night or to-morrow morning. All these vessels and others are bound for Genoa. It must be stated thaitieinhabits.nts of the coast are delighted at the appearance of the Russian flag, and anticipate endless advantages from its presence. The first fruits of the MeiOn will be the construction of a direct road from Nice to Vil!straws, which has been determined on by the municipal council of the former town. This project has revived the anta gonism which rides between the partisans of annexa tion with France and the enemies of the latter country. A French company has offered to contract for the road, and, being supported by the French party, is vigorously opposed by the others. The local journal, which supports the views of the latter, maintains that " it is towards the Grand Duke Constantine, and not toward' the French company, that attention must be directed." Not a mention is made is the discussion of Sar dinia, which proves that the patriotism of this pro vinoe is at a low ebb, or that extravagant expects time are founded on the development of Russian infitence on this coast. In a recent letter I contradicted a report spread by certain Paris journals of a projected cession of the Prin cipality of Monaco to Russia. The Bden • journal of the Principality, gives an o ffi cial denial to the rumour stating that although " the most brilliant pro positions, having for their object the acquisition of the Principality, have been of late times submitted ' to the sovereign; the elevated sentiments of the reigning prince, Charles 111., added to the long resistance offered both by hm and his august predecessor to the desertion of two of his towns in favour of a neighbouring state, do not authorise a belief that the question of the cession can have been seriously treated. The principality of Moused preserves with pride a resolute attachment to the nobility of its origin." The article concludes with the hope "that the great powers, who have vindicated the independence of Montenegro, will ere long regulate a question which involves respect for treaties and for nationalities." The King of Wnrtemberg, travelling incognito as the Count de Jack, arrived yesterday afternoon in Nice. He is accompanied by hie prime minister, M. de Meader; by several aides-de-camp, and by his medical attendant. The i ncogn it o o f th e King was respected on his arrival. His Majesty has taken up his residence at the Villa Avigdor, owned by the banker of that name, who is also consul of Wurtemberg. A very severe storm has been raging along the coast all this morning and afternoon, and its effects have been already felt. The wooden bridge over the Var has been ruptured, and the communications between France and Sardinia interrupted. Two arches were carried away by the torrent. Hardly three years pass without an identical accident oc curring at this spot. The bridge is some 900 yards in length, and is constructed of planks covered with earth. Owing to the bad state of the banks of the I V's, it has hitherto been found impossible to throw a stutpension bridge over the river, for it would incur the risk of becoming cut off from the high road. No loss of life has to be deplored in the present case; the French and Sardinian sentinels on the bridge were fortunately not posted on the arches earned away; while two postchabies which were proceeding over the bridge, one from and the other towards Nice, were pulled up in time. The post has of course been detained, and a great deal of anxiety caused amongst persons passaging frierida on their way to Nice or other points of this coast. It is no joke to be compelled to return to Marseilles atter having experienced the martyrdom of a dili gence journey from that port to Draguinan and the frontiers. We have no news from the Genoa road, but it is to be feared that the torrents which abound there must have caused considerable damage. The amount of rain that fell here from daybreak to sun set was awful; a strong north wind was blowing all the time. Several weasels are reported to have pat in here this afternoon, but a haze covers the port and bay and conceals everything from sight.
