THE REVIEW IN PHOENIX PARK. DUBLIN, FILIDAT MOILIIIIIO, The revise in the park bad been looked forivard to with intense interest from the time it had been announced that Fet M t irsty would collar is Ireland. A review at lie Puccnix Park has no ordinary etirac ti ins of Itself on • cononin occasion, and the Dublin citiz as of all classes make it a four de .life—so that for the pier it is a Grand 11 aidey, and for the rich it is at once • pie sic, a rural drive, and a plac3 of fashionable reunion. You can udg-, thee, how eagerly a review under the royal standard, in the presence of Majesty, was hailed by the Dublin folk. The PLmoix Park is one of the finest public grounds in Europe, and in natural beauty excels either Richmond or Windsor. Its name is due to Lord Chesterfield, who, when Lord Lieutenant, en clued it, and charged its Irish appellailn of Noises 144.0e —that is, " fair water "—into " Phco ix r and, is order to mark the name, he placed a pillar in the centre, with the figure of • ph® ix, represented, accordirg to its fabulous hietnry, in the centre of its tune cal pile, spreading out its wings as it to hast n its own death. Tire height of the pillar is about 30 feet, end it was ere le lin 1713. Tears is a famous lam-mot con nested with this park, which has gre it point. Bit Hercules Lungfish, the eelebrat d wit of the last cen tury, was riding with the Duke of Ru'land, when Lord L!cuternant, " I wonder, Sir Hercules," said the duke, " that none of the viceroys ever drained this park;" upon which Languish replied, "Ah ! they were tea busy draining the rest of the kingdom." It was the MOW wit, who, on being asked " whose was the beat history of Ireland?" replied " The continu ation of Itipio(e)" -a couple of boo-mots which *pi tomiie the history of the country. The p.rk is now the bed respire of our officials, burin; handsome residences for the viceroy, the chief and tend. r secretaries. These Tillie are delightfully situated, and the p.rk itself commends a lovely pros pelt. I a penury is sinzularly diversified. In the centre of it is a plain called "Tee Fifteen Acres," an adtritab'e spot for military evolutions. The Liffey Bows at the suth side, under some swelling ground. At the other side of the river is a richly ornamented landsespo, beyond which towers the long and bold outline of the Dublin M xmtsins, running into Wick low and Kildare. The Scene is at once romantic and cultivated. Toe spires of the adjacent city fill up the view on one hand, while at the other a verdant plain terminates the opposite extremity of a glorious prosp-ct. I' is undeist^od that her Majesty has ex pressed hcrself vi terms approaching to wonder at the eauty of the Viceregal Park. The Viccreg .1 Lodge, whore her Majesty sojouras, is like the country hours of a rich English peer—not splendid or sumptuous, but chastely elegant and handsome. It was originally built by Mr. Clements, afterwards Lied Leitrim. In 1802 Lord Hard wick improved it, and in 1808 the Duke of Richmond added a handsome portico of the Wric order. The pleasure grounds at tached are very extensive, and contain ten large and well-socked fish-ponds, with petty rides through shrubberies and plantations. Round the south point of the lodge are limes and elms in picturesque groups. Ten o'clock was named for the review, and vehi cles of all kinds and pedestrians of all costumes com menced their journey to U. 13 pork as early as six this morning, and continued in one uninterrupted stream along bath lines of quay, and still kept pouring on even after her Majes y had arrived on the ground. Wh.:in I arrived at the far-famed " fifteen acres," the And thing that occurred to me was that they must give excellent measure in selling land in Ireland, if the immense plateau I saw before me would be allowed to go fur the quantity indicated in its title. A thick haze obscured he atzioapbcre, and it was not till some time after I bad forced my way into the inner circle that I discovered, stretching out at almost the edge of the horizon, a line of armed men a mile and a quarter in length. They consisted of the le*, 2nd, 40t h , 48:6, 85.1 b, 71st, and 60th Rifles —infantry regiments; the 6th Dragoons and 6th Dragoon Guards, 17th Lancers, 7th and 8:h Haws, two troops of artillery, and 1,000 picked men of the constabulary, makiag in all nearly 9,000 men, a larger number than is often to be got toge ther within the British dominions. I have before said that the extent of the line was a mile and a quarter ; and when I now add that it was the side of • square, theorem of which was kept clear for the purposes of the review, and that the other three sides were densely fringed with spectators to the depth of about 51 / yards, you will be able to form same idea of the numberof persons assembled. Her Majesty strived at ten o'clock, accompanied by Prince Albert, the royal children, the Earl and Countess of Clarendon, and the usual suits, and drove immediately up to the royal standard, when the horses were taken from her carriage an excellent precaution that had previousl a r os tsu in sist::: upon all along the line. It is now need less to add that the cheering the moment her Majesty made her appeszaace was marina The kg had by this time partially cleared away, and the sun shons out fitfully, producing the most :magnificent affects as the different *divisions of this vast body of troops coos- rammed the day's operations by marching past in slow time to salute the royal standard. The shining helmets of the Carbineers, the gay pennons of tome Lancers, and the red shakos of the Hassan, lairiy sparkled in the sun, while the long rows of the infantry bayonets made a perfect forest lof steel, and the very round seemed to quiver under the measured tread of 10,000 cf the finest soldiers in the universe. Civilian as I am, and not over partial to military display, I could not help ad 'airbag the certainty, firmness, and precision, with which the complicated movements of the day were performed, and the perfection to which the art of making one vast machine out of a thousand human beings has been carried in modern military science. Then came quick time, double ouiek, charge of cavalry, and charge all along the lire, accompanied by the wild burn which the 87th first intro duced into the army. This w. - s all done in silence, but afierwards evolutions commenced accom panied by an expenditure of powder sufficient to horrify all good reformers. The infantry formed into hollow equates, which quick:y heeame dissolving views, as they disappeared totally after the first volley ,in smoke of their own creating. While I could see them "prepared to receive cavalry, " the spectacle was delightful, but they very smn contrived to hide not only themselves, but the whole of the troops, from the anxious eyes of the spectators. If reviews could be carried on without " villainous gun powder," it would not, in my opinion, not only be more economical, bet very much increase the sosoic Then came "file firing," in which each limn - fires Mph rately—an e xe rcie e performed with admirable precision. I never head anything like it except the Russian Horn Band plying " The Caliph of Bagdad," each man taking only a single tote. Anon came the booming of the artillery, then tie pop, p rp, pop all the tiraillenrs, and then tremendous volleys along the whole line. The review concluded, as it began, with a salute, and the royal party set out on its return to the lode. Here, in my opinion, was concentrated the whole in terest of the day's proceedings. As soon as the royal carriage was seen making for the grand roadway of the park the people p oared down iu dense masses and gave her 'Majesty a cheer just as she turned the corner, which would have put the 64's of old La Hogue herself out of coun tenance. Dragoons, lancers, and human, were all huddled up by the pressure from a ithout, while the enormous maim of human beings kept cheering until they were hoarse, and then threw up their hats as a sort of music between too acts until tray had re covered their breath. Her Majesty bore the pressure most good humour edly and graciously. Smilingly—a true smile fall of light and sincerity—she bowed and waved her bands, while the tall Cleveland bays care fully picked their way amongst the myriads who hustled them, totally realer.s of corns and their c insequencea. Her Majesty was followed and cheered class up to the Viceregal Lodge gate. The scene then, as I cast my eyes over the noble chase which formed the scene of the late spectacle, was won derfully picturesque and animated. 'the various regi ments ef cavalry were returning to their barracks by different paths, and as they passed in and out through the trees, or b-oke into irregular groups on some knoll et:declivity, they formed pictures werthy the times of lilt sad tournament. Some of them I am sorry to add, smoked short pipes after the fatigues of the day, a circumstance which on closer inspection took very mach from the romance and knight-errantry of their appearance. The people followed them in dense groups, comparing notes as to their sights of the Queen, or criticiait g with won derful acumen the military cv - lutiors. I am happy to say that, with one exception, the 'military arrangements met with the entire approval of the Dublin gamins. They thou.-ht the 1000 con stabulary an innovation, and unanimously decided that they did not look "like real soldiers after ell ;" but except that everything was praised. The orderly conduct of the first two days wasrereated and nothing, not even a shower,the heretofore ant tiling companion of Dublin reviews occurred to mar the enjoyment of the day's proceedings. By the way, the people here, who, as you know, are very devotional if not super stitious, are beginning to notice the fine weather that unfailingly attends her Majeaty's movements. One man standing near me to-day exclaimed " She must be lucky, for the Sun always comes out along with her." THE DRAWING-ROOM. Her Majesty's first drawing-room in the capital of Ireland was held last night in her Castle of Dublin. It was anr.ounced that the brilliant scene wt.uld be opened at nine o'clock, and as her M ijeaty is known to be remarkable for punctuality, for some time before that hour the streets along the line of route from the Viceregal Lodge to the Castle—and espec;ally those in its vicinity —were densely crowded by persons anxious to see her Majesty pay, and give her a warm and enthusiastic reception. The public buildings, and the establishments at which gas fittings tar the purposo of the illuminations had been put up, were brilliantly lighted ; so that what with the attraction thus created, the mildness and beauty of the night, the glittering equipages passing every moment to set down those proceeding to the drawing-room, and the number et pi none who thronged the streets, apparently finding much enjoyment in what was goirg on, the scene that presented itself was p.culitirly interesting and exciting. A party of the Rifles, with the admirable band of that corps, were station' d in the Upper Castle-yard, where there was assembled a consider able number of persons, who obtained admission by tickets, and hoped to catch a glimpse of her Majesty as she alighted from her carnage at the grand. en trance. The windows of the entire range of the build ing were brilliantly lit, and tho effect was very fine. Precisely at nine o'clock, the approach of the royal carriages was announced, and immediately afterwards they drove up Parliament-street, having proceeded along the south quays from the park. The royal party was escorted by two troops of the 6th carbineers, and as her Majesty passed she was loudly and enthusiutically cheered. In the carriage with the Queen was his Royal Higheesr Prince Al bert, and the other carriages conveyed the Marquis of Lansdowne, Sir George Grey, Loed Forteccue, and several members of the royal household. Upon the carriage is which the Queen sat entering the gate the band of the Rifles played the national anthem, and when her Majesty and the Prince alighted a loud and hearty cheer burst from those pre.ent, many eagerly rushing forward to catch a sight of them as they en ten d. Her Majesty's dress was of Irish manufacture, pink poplin, beautifully embroidered with shamrocks. Her Majesty and the Prince Consort were received at the principal entrance by the Earl and Countess of Cla rendon, and conducted to the throne room. The presentations at the general drawing-room were extremely numerous, and lasted till 20 minutes after 12 o'clock, when the royal party left for the Viceregal Lodge in the same order as they arrived. PRINCE ALBERT'S VISIT TO THE AGRICUL- TURAL SHOW. There was some hope entertained yesterday that her Majesty would Tien the show, held at the Dublin Society House, in Leinster Lawn. But the review in the forenoon, and the fatigues of the coming drawing room in the evening, were too mach for her Majesty to encounter. Prince Albert, however, attended at 4 o'clock, to the great gratification of crowds of well dressed persons who had entered the show. On entering the baard-room the following address was preempted to his Roy-el Highness. To His ROYAL Humors TEE P&IKCI ALBERT.

REPLY Or HIS /LOYAL HIGHNESS. I thank you sincerely fur your congratulations upon the arrival of the Queen and myself in Ireland. I taus always felt a great interest in the traces dings or this society, and have b en anxious for its prosperity, because I was convinced that in applying the most recent discoveries in science, and the most hilly tested mechanical improvemenU to a naturally f. rile soil, you would not only raise the productive powers of this country, arid lacrosse its wealth, but likewise give ree.u. nerative employment to its labauring population, and encou rage habits of industry. It is 'mpoleible not to feel deeply the marks of enthusiastic attachment which have been displayed t the Queen and to toyed by the warmhearted inhabitants of this beautiful island ; and I most sincerely hope that the promise of a Plentiful h aaaaa t, of which your &ids bear such hopeful evi dence, may he the harbinger of a termination to those suffer ions nod- r which the people have so lamentably, and yet with such exemplary p Alums-, labour. d. rritce Albert then passed out to the cattle show, Toe tonsvemseed-bli4nspsudism of She beery eatt/w lie was first taken to eve tree prize bulls. No. 4, which got the first prize, was one c f the most monstrous bets's I ever saw. He was, in fact, too large and too fat a beast, and yet he was admirably *hap A. Ills royal highness quietly looked at him, but did not pay much aftention to him. He then looked at a very fine bull, which had got the second pis •, and be longed to the Marquis of Londonderry. The next boll was one that had not got a prize, but wh . ch was recommended by one of t..e com mittee. Somewhat to the surprise of the crowd that followed him, I ranee Albert stopped at this bull, and raid it more attention than he had done t r either of the others, examining it most carefully, feeling it, and handling it in the moat scientific manner, and appeasing more pleased with it than w.th the more successful ones that had carried the prize. The late Lord Spencer could not have shown mere scrutinising connoisseurship. The proof of knowledge shown by the Prince was pleasing to the agricultural gentlemen around. VISIT OF PRINCE ALBERT TO THE PUBLIC LIONS. At sbortly after two o'clock yesterday his Royal Highners Prince Aibat, accompanied by the Lord Lieutenant, the illirquis of Lansdowne, Lord Fortenue, and Mr. Curry Conuallaa, drove into the city from the Viceregal Lodge, for the pury as of visiting some of the public institutions. The distinguished party first Troceeded is the Royal Irish Aca demy. Riming spent more than half an hour in the mitt union, the ohject arid regulivions of which w re explained to him by Dr. Todd and other members, his royal Mahn. es expressed himself highly pleased end intereeted with ell he sew, and then took his leave; and next drove to the Royal Cattge of Surgeons.

He then returned to the board-room, and previous to his departure expressed 'dwelt much pleased with his visit. THE QUEEN AT QUEENSTOWN.—Precions t, the arrival of the royal squadron the Cark Steam-ship Com pany had arranged to nava several of their fine sol e s in port on the occasion ; and three of these—the Minerva, Preussischer Adler, Pad Nimrod—started from Par age r.t nnoa, with • numerous company en board, at .amed round the royal squadron, and being joined by the Ajar and Ss brine, two other of the company's TellltlP, with the Viceroy, pree. ded the Fairy yacht, on board which was her Majesty, to Cork. On panning down and up the , and arriving at the Steam-packet quay, they presewed • very imposing appearance, anti must hare added mucia to the gra' iii adou of the royal party gen. rally, but mutitularly of these who, from their prolmeional knowledge of each subjects, could fully appreciate the beauty of model and striking ority of them reset!.. The A•ab arrived from Dablit. with a lam- and fosli•mable company, and the Vane u trd c Inv in in the canoe of the day. Her Majesty return. el to th.- royal yacht about seven o'cl eck, when the ray al salute wee at fired on the shi.ting of the liege.

DUBLIN, FRIDAY NIGHT This day her Majesty honoured the Duke of Leinater will a visit at Carton. The royal c,riege consistel of four epen four-horse carriages. In the first carriage were the Queen and his Rnyal Highness I'rirco Albert and Lord and Lady Clarendon. In the second, the Counters of Jocelyn, lady in waiting; tho lion. Miss Dawson, maid of honour; Sir G. Grey and Mr. Portescue. The third contained the Marquis of Lansdowne, Sir James Clarke, Mr. G. E. Anson, and the Master of the liorre. In the last carriage were the Hon. Colonel Alexander Gordon, Mr. Carry Connellau, Colonel C. Phipps, and Mr. Charles Napier.. A troop of Lancers form:d the eacnt. The Itopl cortive left the Phoenix-pack at 12 o'clock, and pissed through Colonel White's private gate along tie Wo .dlands to Carton. Many parts of the route were decorated with triumphal arches, flags, laurels, and wreaths. Crowds testified Oeir ardent loyalty by the most energeic pladitr. The Royal eothlye reaeled Carton at 10 minutes after 1. Tne grounds of tho ducal mansion were thrown open to the public, and its beautiful parterres were crowded with ladies, gentlemen, and many of the poorer classes. The Queen and Prince Albert immediately presented thewstivra on the terrace, and, on beingre cognised by the multitude, were loudly and most en thusiastically cheered. Two regimental bands were stationed on the terrace. The royal standard floated from the roof of the mansion, and marquees were erected on the terrace, in which an elegant lmeheon was laid out. After remaining at Carton about an hour, the Queen returned to Phoenix-pa.k. DEPARTURE FOR BELFAST. At half-past six o'clock her Majesty, with Prince Albert and the juvenile members of the royal family, attended by Lord and Lady Clarendon and Sir George Grey, proceeded from the Vice-regal Lodge in two royal open carriages and three close carriages, belonging to his excellency, for the railway station in Westland-row, where an express er gine carried them to Kingstown. Hundreds of thousands witnessed her Majesty's progress to Kingstown, and sere present at the em barcation. The cheers which bade her good speed were uttered with the greatest fervour. The squadron, with • the usual royal salutes and yards all manned, got under we'gh at a quarter before 7 o'clock, and, with a light breeze, proceeded towards Belfast. BRIGHTON AND CONTINENTAL STEAM PACKET ,hat adjourned meeting of this company wu held yesterday the London Bridge Station, Captain Ho them i n the chair.—Kr.

The only course, there fi sre, that rem .ined for the proprietors to pumse wee, to wind up the company and to settle all its claims; 10,000!. had been received on accnent of the but Newhaven, and 16,0001., which would be paid in the course of the ensuing week, remained due. The balance, made up to the let of July. and taking into account the claim of the Brifehton and out` anding claims, was stated to be 10,000/. The chairman, in answer to various questions, stated that the outstanding cells amounted to 1 , 0891 . , an d that they calculated about het' would be received, which would leave a sum of from 6,00 W. to 6,4001. to be divided amongst the propriettn, or about 11.7.. or 1 1 .

The following letter from our correspondent confirms the particulars we gave yesterday relative to the cap ture of Raab. VIENNA, AVGCBT 6. The imperialists lost all their guns along the Danube. Two divisions of Uhlan's were literally destroyed, and other troops sedly cut up. All the transport vessels and tenders filled witsi provisions and ammunition, 2,600 oxen and 600 carriages laden with ficur destined for the army of the south, have been captured. It is not yet known whether the corps of /solids, which de'eated General Nugent some days ago, I l uni•ed with Klapks, who commands the troops, or not previous to surprising Raab, Acs, and Goynyo; still it appeare, from an official communication con formable to which the imperial troops have retired to the left ide of the Danube, and from the fact that , no couriers are despatched to Pestb,:that the whole of the routes from Presbutg to Pesth are now occupied by the Magyars. The trocpswho had been ordered to march out from I here refused at first to go to Hungary, more parti- 1 enlarly k ehe Polish battalions. The interference of the emper r prevailed upon them, and they left Vienna in the afternoon. Lathe suburbs of Vienna people collected and ex their hopes that the Magyars would arrive. dolt think, however, that they will eras their frontiers. An interesting letter from Presborg, dared the 4th inst., appears in the Cologne Gazette. It describes in graphic terms the panic terror prevailing these. The writer happened to be standing, about three in the afternoon, on the great bridge of boats. when there arrived first solitary riders, then solitary officers on Let, covered with duet, bespattered with mud; some bare-headed ; then small troops of military, without their knepsacke, in the moat pitiable condition. It could hardly be called walking, it was running. An eflicer related the MUSS of it all to several comrades who detained him. It is es follows : A considerable Hurgarian corps—the officer spoke of 10,000 men— had sallied from the fortress of Comoro, and stood al ready in Cleirgii, when the news of it reached Rub. The garrison of this town was quite insignificant; a panic seized the imperialists. Everything that could flee, fled, and, as we ourselves witnessed, in anything but military order. The panic must indeed have b.en great to induce these officers to bolt f r Presburg through thick and through thin. The writer then indulges in some reflections on the consequences of this sally; and, as Lloyds, regards it as immaterial had it not been for the immense stores for the main army, which had been collected at Rub and Gicrgo. Everything fell into the hands of the Hungarians. Tae lots must be far greater than a million florins (£80,000). At Gei-gii two steamers were lying at anchor, which bad mit Img towed there a number of tenders. One of them may have 'perhaps escaped, as its steam hap pened to be up. but the second is certainly lost. There were more than 80,000 trusses of hay, enormous quanti ice of flour, millet, vinegar, &c., piled up on the quay, and 2,400 head of oxen were stalled at Raab, for b. ing driven on farther. You may ea , ily conceive that the gentle men from Comoin d d not leave one hoof of them behind. Besidee this, they took prisoners two companies of foot, captured six cannon, and the officers were in end te.bnlation respecting the fate of half a equadron of Celan& Such was the news brought. The mails and steamers were immediately stopped, for it was feared the Ilungarians would advance as far as Wievric lburg, and even further. One hour later, and couriers flew in all directions. The telegraphs worked the news to Vienna and Breinn, requiring speedy help. Tnis has been the fourth sally of the garrison a t camera within a week. The first to Dotis, when ei.{ht Austrian officers and sixty men were taken. On returning to the fortress the mail fell into their fiends they carried it along with them and got 6.000 florins in Austrian bank notes, and 300,000 eompu'sory drafts addressed to Count Z.chy. The conductor and a superannuated major were :ent about their business by Klapka, but an official of the poet and a captain of infantry detained. The record sortie was more like a party of pleasure. The th rd t xcursion was the most imposing; they then Vole the direction to Neuhautel, driving the so-called Austrian blockading troops back to Szered. All the baggage, provender, and two cannons were the booty of that day. The fourth sally , has been best rewarded with success, namely, the one to Raab. Presburg is quite Magyar u far as the feel:ngs of the inhabitants are concerned. The black and yellow streaks of the balustrade on the bridge are quite sig nificant upon that score. The latest accounts describe Vienna to be in a state of the greatest excitement and confusion. Numerous patrols paraded the streets, both of the city and suburbs. The radicals here asserted that Haynau had sustained a defeat. It is also said that the insurgents have taken Gran. In addition to the troops that left at noon (on the sth instant.), fresh soldiers marched at two. During the night the telegraph sent fora part of the Oltneez garrison, which chows the ex:stence or dread of a velcano in Vienna itself. Toe Presborg correspondent of a morning con temporary, given to anything but exaggerating 'the successes of the Hungarians, sends the following parti culars, which, though repeating some of the details already given, gain interest by reason of the source, from which they come: This morning, as I was standing on the bridge, I observed a tumultuous asselambge of offic is and soldiers rushing past me. acme on horseback, others a-fo g. Immediately after their arrival in Freeburg horsemen were seat off in all direc tions, and it was clear that some important event must have he ooened. A short time afterwards there was another rush of_ i ddiers—dirty, disarmed, and exhausted—and in a trice the whole town was in a state of the greatest cansternation and excitement. Though the Austrians have greatly benefited the place by spending a deal of money hers, yet the sew intents of the Hunearian and German part of the population have been with difficulty rep lesed—inieed there were some manifestations of public feeling. For soon it be corirsomknrn , tooo be i th 0,000 i l u pzs a ig n it s y ha ol s a u d rp o r n i b i : a t t lt h a e t g a ar pol of Haab ; that they had pushed their advanced guard to Wiesselburg, and that they were within sight of Altenburg, So sudden was the app.cach of the Hungarians upon Raab that the imperialist garrison of that place was seized with a panic. Their flight was general and disorderly in the extreme. The fugitive officers presumed that the citiesof Raab and Gorge were taken—indeed, there was nothing to prevent the Hun garians from taking them, a ,. d with them an enormous quan .ity of stores, the whole commissariat of the imperialist army, which had been concentrated in the two places, previous to heir g seat in the interior to the army of General Haynau. A' Gorge the Hungarians must have found two steamers with a quantil of boats which they were irtended to drag. On the quays were above 00,0f0 bushelsof oats and enormous quan lid• s of flour, rice, and vinegar, and 2,400 head of cattle— all of which fell into the hands of the liungeriaas. The lives of the imperialist armies in Hungary depended on the safety of their stores, which cannot now Fe replaced in time to be of any use to them. The Hungarians captured also two companies of tout and six pima of artillery. Several troops of Lancers, too, were mining. Thus, within a few days is revenged, as if be Heaven itself, the atrocious spoliation of the Jews ef Buda-Pesth. Of the impression which the news of this disaster made at Vienna the same journal has the following account: This morning Vienna presented an unusually excited and flurried appearance. Four battalions were despatched he railway to Freeburg. Among them was a battalion of Rifles consisting of mere lads. There had been some mutiny among them. I understood they had refused to march until the emperor sent to say that they should not be used against the enemy. At length they consented to do so, but even then the scene wits heartrending. The poor young fellows moaned and wept aloud. They cried that to march against the Hungarians was to go to death. The officers yielded lees to their feelings, but they, too, parted from their friends and relations with very evident algae of emotion, and then hurried the men off. Nor the railroad them was a dense crowd of curious 'potato' I. Here again the young riflemen tarried and bemoaned tbefr fate. They said, "We are going to be shot !" and, sch:ressiag the crowd, they cried — Farewell for ever. We dull saver return!" The deems intreated them to be quiet and rotilfted to their fete. They rtibmitud at length. It b's stated hare that Haynes finds the diflimiltiss of march alma* lass_ perable. There are ramous of his Diving been breed to fall hock elms Kite' kstae.

Their ammla from Faith wee a weary AUSTRIAN WARFARE. &vet al letters written by on- correspondents have reached us this morning from Pesth and Presbarg, nearly two months after date. They have consequently lost the interest of novelty, and only serve to show the insecurity and uncertainty of the Austrian Poat office. We give the folllwingptociamation, however, as one specimen oat of many of General Hayntu's mode of warfare, and we leave him to be judged by his own words and acts : The inhabitants of Boefirklor, when the insurgents at- I tacked the brigade of General Wyss, having taken an active part sgait.st the imperial armies, I decided on burning down sad destroying the said place, which, according to my orders, was executed on the 214 of June. The church aloae is left st►nding. In publishing this order, I declare at the same time that a simile chastisement shall be inflicted on all those who have in any manner whatever aided the insurgents. (Bipned) Probers, Jess 22,1849. Various proclamations, received linos the date of the above, and already published, have shown how literally General Heynnu has kept this promise. HAYNAV. FRANCE. PARIS, FRIDAY, 5.30 P.M Paris is no longer in the anomalous state yclept the state of siege. The project of law regulating the manner and the circumstances under which this ex ceptional state can in future be created was adopted by a large majority yesterday, and it was immedi ately followed by the voting of another project, re storing Paris aid its republican agitators to civil tri bunals and the ordinary course of justice. The iron grasp being thus withdrawn from the socialist press, on which it has rested since June, the journals of that party will probably reappear, or at least so many of them as can afford the caution-money and the net essary calmness requisite to keep free from the nippers of the press law. M. Sauteyra was unsuccessful in an attempt to in clude the sixth military division, of which Lyons is the centre, in the law raising the state of siege of the first. M. Dufaure showed that there might be danger in such an extenslon, on account of the great audacity shown at Lyons in June, where certeiuly the ultra democrats and sociali-ts acted a much more decided and serious part than they did in Paris. The most important part of the si.ting, however, was the pre sentation, by M. Pussy, of two projects of law by which it is intetded to fill up the gap in French finance. These laws are an income tax of I per cent., and a tax on the conveyance of property, funded or otherwise, and whether by gift or purchase. The importance of theme projects of law is such that I give them to you entire. The first, on the income tax, is in the following words: Art. 1. From let January, 1850, shall be established a personal tax proportienate to the f rtunes and means of the tax-payers. This tax shall be imposed upon all the inhabit sots who, by existing laws, are liable to the contribution of three days' labour. It shall be levied in the commune of the real residence. Art. 2. The personal tax 2'l'll be augmented by one-tenth for every domestic attached to the service of the person, or the care of hie house, in no cue the supplement exceeding 201 r. for each domestic. Art. 3. Ev...ry inhabitant liable to the tax must declare to the secretary's department of the Mairie, by himself or some one duly authorised, the amount of his income of all kinds, and, when necessary, the number of his domestics. Art. 4. In each commune a ummittee, composed of the comptroller of the direct taxes, of the mayor, and of a citizen named by the prefect, shall rectify the declarations which may be ascertained to be inexact, supply those which may not have been made, and draw up the schedule of the taxes to be paid. Art. 5. The schedule shall be deposited for ten days in the secretary's department of the Marie, in order that the persons interested may t :amine it, and make to the mayor their observations on it. Art. 0. The committee shall examine the observations presented, and, after having made the modifications which they may think fit, transmit the schedule to the director of the direct taxes. Art. 7. On the report of the director, the prefect shall settle the amount of the income, and fix the sum to be paid by the commune, on the beds of 1 per cent. Art. B.—The schedule shall be afierwords communicated to the communal assessors, who shall have the faculty of proposing modifications in favour of the tax-payers whose ' posiuon may appear to them to require consideration. The assessors must state reasons for their propositions, and shall not in any case lower by more than a fourth the amount of the individual income established by the committee. Art. 9.—The propositions of the sesessors shall be sub mitted by the director to the prefect, who shall definitively settle the schedules. The schedules shall be sent to the director, who, alter having di termined the relation existing between the amount of the incomes scheduled and the con tingents fixed, in conformity with Art. 7, shall establish the individual amusements. Art. 10.—The objections relative to the personal tax shall be presented, examined, and decided sccordiog to the forms and in the periods prescribed for the other direct taxer. Art. 11. There shall be added to the personal tax 5c per franc, the produce of which shall tions and modifications. Art. 12. For 1860 the tax established in Execution of the present law shall be deducted for each taxpayer from the assessment of three days' labour comprised in the general tax roll. - - It will be seen that in this law, u in the English income tax, there is no difference made in the levy on 4 income resulting from professional helmsr and in that 1 proceeding from the interest of funded property. On I this point much debating is said to have taken place in the council, where, however, it was found impos sible to draw a line of demarcation. It is probably in view of lessening the barthen falling on professional ' earnings that a special article has been introduced by which a diminution of tax may be made when the position of the tax-payer requires consideration. Unlike our income tax, which is only voted for a cer tain time, this tax is imposed as a regular addition to the burdens of the country. It remains to be seen how long this low figure of 1 per cent. can be main tained without increase. The second pro eat of law is a burden solely on proprie'ore, whether their wealth consist of money in the funds or land, and mast be taken as a compensa tion for the lightness with which the income tax will fall upon them. It is as follows: Art. 1. In conformity with art. 3 of the law of 16th June, 1824. donations dividing property made by deed during life, by the father and mother and other persons in the u °ending lice, between their children and descendants, shall only be subject to the duties established for successions in the direct line ; but the roles of levying respecting soul(es de portage shall be applicable to them, as also the testamen tary divisions authorised by articles 1075 and 1076 of the Civil Code. Art. 2. The deeds containing . the declaration by the donor or his representatives, or the judicial recognition, shall be subject to the donation duty. Art. 3. The conveyance after death and the transmission during life gratuitously of inscriptions on the Grand Line of the public debt shall be subjected to the duties established for successions or donations. The same shall be the cam with respect to conveyance of public funds af:er death, shares in companies, and foreign stock depending on a succession regulated by the French law, and the transmissions during life gratuitously of these same descriptions of property to a Frenchman. The capital serving as the bssis of the liquids , den of the registration duty shall be determined by the aver- I age prices on the Bourse on the day of transiniuion. If the stock be not quoted at the Bourse, the capital shall be deter- I mined by the estimate of the `parties, in conform it y with Article 14 of the law of 22nd Frimairs, An. 7, subject to the application of the same law, if the estimate be suer ' mined to be insufficient. Art. 4. The lowest fixed duty of registration of civil and administrative acts shall be 2fr., with the exception of the duty en certificates of life and residence, which is maintained I at tae present rats. Art. 6. The deeds and conveysness which may have ac quired a midis date before the promulgation of the present law shear be regulated by previous laws. These two projects of law have been referred to the committee on the budget, to which the law regulating the excise on drinks has already been given to con eider. At the close of the pitting M. Odill m Barrot, as minister of justice, presen ed a project of law, the effect of which will be to convoke the high coma of Justice at Versailles, in order to try not only the au thors of and accomplices in the affair of the 13 h of June last, but those accomplices in the affair of May 1845 who were not tried in the sitting of the Coat t of Bourges. Tee court is to meet within two in inths after the premulgation of the law. The Assembly, having adjourned, met in its bureaux to name a committee to report on the bill. The Chembre des Mises en Accusation yesterday resolved that 67 of the 72 persons accused by the Chambre du Conseil of being concerned in the Asir of 13th June should be sent for trial before the High Court of Justice. The five others are not to be pro- secuted, there not being sufficient evidence sgunst them. Among the 67 are the 33 representatives whose names have been given, and several members of the committee of the Socialist Demeerseic Fuse, and of the Committee des Vingt-Cinq. To-day, after the reading of a report on the subject of the sinking fund, which was stated to be recover ing its normal state, disturbed as it had been by the evil effects of the revolution, M. Boinvilliers mounted . the tribune, and read the report of the committee that bad met to report on the bill relative to the cony na tion of the High Court of Justice. M. Boinviaiers proposed the fallowing project criergence:--‘ Tho authors and accomplices of the plot and attempt of the 13th of June, put in accusation by the decree of the Court of Appeal of Paris of the 9th of August, are sent before the High Court of Justice. "The High Cowl of Justice will meet at Versailles within the two months following the promulgation of the present law. The High Court will try et the same time the authors and accomplices of the attempt of the 15th of May, 1849, placed in accusation by the decree of the High Court of Appeal of Parisi, tatted the 16th of January, and condemned cen'nuisciously by the High Court of Justice in April, who may be in prison, or will present themselves before the com mencement of the trial." The project of law was adopted without discu-sion, and several laws of loeal interest subeequ ntly passed. The demand made to prosecute MM. Sem mice and Richardet, representatives of the leapt% then came under discussion, and led to a most de plorable scene in the Aa e em bly. The committee had voted for authorising the pro secution, and M. Sommi , :r now came beward to state that he considered the prosecution against him as retrospective, inasmuch as the acts imputed to him were committed precious to his nomination iv; mem ber of that Assembly by at least 45,000 elute's. lie protested that he never intended to attack either pro perty or family as he was accused of doing in a public print, and the prosecution could have eo other cause than of political passion. M. (Milton Barret then came forward to say that though he respected the rights of a defence, he could not allow the honour of the magistracy to bo im pugned. M. Itichardet said a few words also in de fence, and was followed by M. Detours, who said ho was grieved to see so many prosecutions against members of the Assembly. " What," said M. Detours, "is the question? We bear of mistrust existing against certain magistrates; why the jury was an institution the creation of which justifies such mistrust." The president here interrupted the orator by calling on him not to calumniate the institutions of the country. The jury was but a mode of justice, and was not an institution of mistrust. M. Odillon Barrot again repeated that the magis trate who asked for permission to prosecute had done but his duty, as an order of the council enjoining him to act bad been forwarded to him, and he could not but obey it. M. Detours having asked that the articles forming the subject matter of the accusation should be read they were read. ac cordingly. One was called " The Resurtection of the Guillotine ;" and in it the army, the g -vern ment, and an entire portion of society were insulted, and represented as executioners and restorers of the guillotine; nor was the president of the republic spared in the general abuse. Whilst this extraordi nary paper was being read, a great tumult arose in the Assembly on the benches of the left. M. Pierre Bonaparte was surrounded and collared, and it appeared that he had struck the cheek of a repro sentcive near him who had spoken of the /resident of the republic. The combatants were immediately separated. The president pat on his he. The mem ber struck by M. Pierre Bonaparte is M. Otatier (de "AM). The Alavalie Nationale notices as follows the recall of General Oudinot: The re port of the return of General Oudinot is confirmed. We had refused to credit it, because that retwn was repro seated as a censure. If it is true, however, that the con queror of Rome returns al a mars hal of France, we chill re joice at his recall. To have recalled General Oudii,,,t in any other way would have been madness. The noble cause of Hungary, which seems unlikely to receive from the French government and the illiberal majority in the Chamber that sympathy which shows itself in kindly thoughts, if it canrot do so in acts, has found energetic support from a minority of 85 members of the left, who have made the follow ing propositions : The French republic recognises the independence and nationality of Hungary. The executive power will take the necessary meacurei to insure the integrity of the Hungarian territory against fo reign intervention and invasion. This proposal, which will probably have the fate of all those which owe their origin to the initiative par kmentaire of the minority, has been referred to a committee, when it will no doubt find that burial place to which are condemned all attempts to sym pathise with a noble cause. From the returns of the Bank of France, just pub lished, it appears that the metallic reserve has again increased nearly 6,500,000, of which 3 are in I'aris, and 3 1 , , , in the provinces. The discount accom modation has advanced 800,0001. in Paris, and de clined somewhat more than 2,000,000 E in the depart ments; the amount of the former being 45,761,451 f., and that of the latter 81,118,372 E The protested bills have declined nearly 100,000 f. in Paris, and about 80,000 f. in the branch banks ; the amount of the former being 4,610,0381., and of the latter 2,881,654 E The overdrawn bills have diminished from 566,5301. to 102,7431. On the side of the liabilities the notes in circulation have fallen off a li'tle more than 2,000,000 f. in Paris, and increased about 1,000,000 f. in the provinces. The amount-current of the treasury has increased about 2 1 millions, the amount now being 50,776,361 fr. Private accounts current in Paris have advanced about 150,000 f., and have fallen off in the provinces some what more than 11 million; the amount of the fanner being 82,316,381 fr., and of the latter, 25,519,01'1fr. The whole amount of the metallic reserve is at pre sent 362 millions, to 4101 millions of notes in circu lation.
