Oar readers will find in another page the intelli e re-c:vcd this morning by express from Paris, to w i l i c ch we now append M. Guizot's manifesto on the enne:;ation of Cracow, transmitted to the French am bassadors at Vienna, St. Petersbnrgh, and Berlin, and else communicattd oan the reptesentatives of foreign sweets in Paris. The following is the despatch : • eir,—Tue Austrian Chang cited d'Afleires has cominuni cited to me the deep:aches tom Prince an nouncing to the King's government that the incorporation ja the Astriau empire of the free town and terrirory of Meow is resolved mein by the Courts of 'Vienna, Berlin I , and S t . Petersburg, and they t :e'en the molten transmit celiies of teem. I have laid them beton, ex the Kin nced g Cetiacie: His letejestys gs.vernai eat hasperie in from them a great and palatal eurpeise. We received in antesand ',larch, .3 we did in 163 e and 1838, assur ances ilea the occusation of Cracow by the troops of the m ete p e wees was a - measure purely military, and not poll tkal, commanded by necessity, and which should he. at an end with that necessity. Now it is said that a tempo eery occupation will not sueice, and that the measure adopted be the Three Courts is iadispen•able to gearautee deeeitively M their States ordex and pmee, which have been ineessantly et.eturbed by laser eections of which Cracow had become the permanent focue. But since the suppression of the smell state of Cracow is to put au cud to those diserders, its existence mast have been their unheue, or at least, their principal cause. This supposition is inadmissible. 'the se frequently recurring fermentation 0: the ancier.t Polish provinces has arisen from eaus:c more general. The scattered embe rs m of a great state, destroyed by violence, still contieue e and rise. Treaties which recognise such facts do not cause to disappear at once the social wounds which result from th.m time, equity, kindness., nail prolonged goon government can. alone succeed in it, for these are the only meals which the eivilieetion of Europe now renders pos.ible. The severeiges and the steteemen assembled at the Genres% of 'Vienna, thus considered it. They wished at that moment, even when Europe united, ratified the partition of Pieatel, to give to the Polish nation and to the censeientious feelings of Europe, which were disturbed by this partition, a constant mural satisfactien. 'I hey had at the same time to wards their Polish subjects perspective views of ameliora tion for the internel government of the cour.try. Serious disturbances may iuterrupt the course of that policy, at once wise and cenerons, but not cause it to be entirely abandoned or thee:hese Nothing comprises a government more thee to declare itself unable to fulfil, even slowly and in course of time, the promises and hopes which it has itself given. The destruction of the petty state of Cracow may deprive the spirit of Polish conspiracy of some means of action, but it nay also beer up reel even irritate the feelir.ge which obsti nately give rise to these deplorable enterprises. It weakens thronehout all Europe on this painful question the principles of order and conservatism, to the Froth of blind and hateful passions. Article nine of the Tr. aty of Vienna imposes' en :he te e pee:Jo of Cracow the ohligation of removing conspirators from its territory, and the Three Pro- fitting Powers had doubtless the right to demand the accomplishment of his ohliegtion. lint had they, i to n I order to attain this object, no other means than abolish the independence of this petty state, and to sup press the state itself? The narrow limits of the republic, the imm r.se strength of the three great powers, by whose states it is hemmed in. all tend to induce the belief that measures carefully enethined would have been sufficient to eounteract efficaciously the evil, without having recourse to ex t r eme means, which involve some p erils in the proepect of frequently creating fresh and more serious evils. It was in all cases the incontestable right of all the powers who were Forties to the treaty of Vienna to take part in the delibera.. tions and the decisions of which Cracow might be the object. If Priove Metternich means in hit despatch that the three Courts had by themselves created the small state of Cracow, and that they afterwards pre• ented to the Congress for enrol ment the convention they had passed between themselves, the Kimes government could never admit of an assertion so contrary to the principles, and even to the language of great transactions constituting the public law of Europe. Independent powers are never called upon to enregistee deliberations or acts entered into and passed without their participation. In so far as regards Cracow and Poland, the sovereigns and public men soy that long discussions I w tween the representatives of all the powers preceded the conclusion of the special treaty of May K. The very text of the treaty of Vienna demonstrates that the fate of Poland was regulated after a deliberation of a;1 the representatives of Europe. Articles 1,2, 3,4, and 5 drew the share which each of the three powers was to have of the territory of the grand duchy of War saw. There is not the least difference between these arti cles and those which gave to Prussia a part of the states of the King of Saxony. The thandation of the republic of Cracow is placed on precisely the same ground as the stipulations which formed the other states, even the most free, which have created the Germanic Confederation. The government of his Majesty, therefore, has used only an evident right, and at the same time fulfilled an imperative duty, in protesting solemnly against the suppression of the rephblic of Cracow—an act positively against the letter as tech as the meaniue of the treaties of Vienna. After the long and redoubtable agitations which have shaken Europe, it is only by payee( respect to treaties and those rights which they have made sacred that she maintains herself. No power can enfranchise itself from them without enfranchising the other powers by the same act. France has not given any similar example of an attempt against the policy of conserva tion and peace. France has not forgotten the painful seed- Sees impor'd upon her by the treaties of 181 e. She might rejoice at an net which would authorise her in just recipro city to consult henceforth none but her own interests, and it is she who calls for the faithful observance of treaties Ly the powers who have derived front them the principal advan tages. It is she who, clove all, is occupied in the naainte naece of the rights acquired by o thers, and in respecting their independence. (Signed) " Guizor." Papers from the Cape of Good Hope to the 11th of October have been received, but then• contents are of little importance. The Graham's Town Journal re ports that, although two more of the colonists had fallen victims to the Kaffirs, yet that on the whole appearances were encouraging." Col. Somerset had been doing good service in the field. Overtures for peace had been male by the Gallia chiefs, and the Governor's terms to them were-Ist., to lay down their arms: 2nd., to give up the colonial cattle : 3rd., that the country as far as the Kei should be placed under British control. Macomo, it is said, was disposed individually to agree to these conditions, but the other chiefs rejected them. Papers from Sydney to the 9th of August, state that the local legislature was to be prorogued to the Nth of September. The public at large were interesting themselves on the subject of railways, and the ways and means of raising the money for that end. Sleeting - Ed wcre holding on the subject, and there seemed to be no doubt, from the animation dis played, that the desired object would be ultimately accomplished. -------- BLANDFORD AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. 81. kN DIORD, SI. NDAY.The annual meeting of this, the last held and rnerally the most important agricultural meeting in the county of Dome, took place last evening, when a goodly number of the gentry and yeomanry of the county assembled at the Crown Inn, and sat Henr do er do wn to a sum pt u ous dinner, under the presidency of y K Beymer, Esq., ono of the members of the county. The pie sident was supported by his colleagues Geo. Banks and John Flo+ r, Exp., ;by Sir Edward Baker, Sir John D'oyley, the Hon. and Rev. S. G. Osborne, J. J. Farquhar hi s - son, Esq ., and many clergy men. The premiums of t society are given entirely to labourers. The usual royal toasts followed the removal of th^ cloth, the Rev. Mr. Watts acknowledging the health of the Bishop and Clergy of the on that diocese. Mr. G FORGE. BANIEES UAW he VW happy !..o see, maim a renewed proof that three associations were not falling ofr—that, instead of diminishing, they increased in interest and in zeal ; and if it were otherwise in other parts of the kingdom, as some of the papers had asserted, he h oe be noxious to know why their s ociet y thus prospered, whilst in ether provinces they failed ? Ile hail observed that the presidents of some +ceieties had forbidden politics. h ut That was a very seed and wholesome s y stem, noConflic doubt and con ; he called it ra-her the " cold water system." t troversy he liked as little as any in , n. Ile knew that they met there mainly for the discussion of beef and mutton, of carrots and cabbage, of turnips and potatoes: (a laugh ;) but it had always appeared to him that a very little polities thrown in would act as salt and mustard, and give a flavour to each separate dish, and a relish to the whole of the repast. If ever they were to draw the line se tight as to exclude politics from their dinner table, he must beg them to exclude from their lists of toasts the healths of the country members ; for they did place them in a false and foolish position if they drunk th eir health+ in a political character, and then told them they we re not to say a word about politics. Indeed he was not aware how they could hold these meetings, and avoid polities, for they thank the healths of " the Royal Famiiy, ' " the Bishop and Clergy," and " the Labourer ;" and these were all political toasts. It was with a view to the practical improvement of the peasant, that they came there. These were the politics which he mainly wished to consider at a table like this. The hon. member then alluded to the failure of the potatoes, and drew a contrast between the present condition of England and its sister isle, exhorting the farm ers and gentry to do their utmost to ameliorate the condition of the poor. Many amendments of our social system would doubtless he pro posed in parliament in the coming session ; and ho did ~ , belie,* that, defective as our present poor-law sys tem was, we should be enabled to meet the mum which he conferred he did anticipate. He was rot one of those who felt disappointed at (what, he be lieved, was admitted) the failure to a considerable degree of the now poor-law system. Ho was no friend to it at the first, and it had not disappointed his hopes. He thought many amendments were required i and for one he was ttuly ashamed of the act passed last session, and he should be even , more ashamed if he had not endeavoured, with the aid of his friends, to introduce some amendment into it, which, if it had not made it perfect, would at least have rendered it intelligible. At present they saw it construed in one part of the kingdom is one way, and is another part another way, whilst in many parts they looked on it as a dead letter, and refused to c..nstrue at all. Ile trusted that in some future sessions they would have some better measures than that. He himself had always thought that a diminution of the size of the unions would very much conduce to the comfort of the poor, and that a removal of much of the power of tke poor law commi'sioners to the bails of the government, would be a very wholesome and necessary measure. (Hear.) There was one plan a hich had occurred to him, hut which he was almost afraid to mention, knowing under what a serious superintend ence anything there was said. Speaking in parliament VAS nothing to it. (Much merriment.) There one took his chance with a great many, but here ho was singled out aw:a shot at once. (Great laughter.) He should not venture now to state the notion that had occurred to him, if he bad not seen it taken up by . some portion of the respectable puss. (A laugh.) His ueerou was, the establislinnut of r Aort ., or granaries for the poor, not under the government, but connected with our unions. In the present year, Err instance, what a pleasure it would .re for them to he enabled to sell corn to the poor at the present time at the price it was at six 'tenths ago. He did not see any dillicultv in a plan of tl':is kind, and with re gard to prices, he did not think ',t would be disadvantageous. It was clear that we wanted something in an emergency like the present. The hon. raceaber next observed, that distress was else fi It in the nianuf scturing districts, and (alluding to to the well-known aty.cdote of Mr. Cobden, convening an agriculturist by takieig Lim to look at a busy factory, and afterwards at a fled overgrown with thistles) he said he wished that V me r.gricelturist would now take Mr. Cobden to his =attract are , on one of the two da3 s in the week that it was closed and afterwards to the deserted field now ploughed and cultivated. because the owner of that field saw that the agri cultural community could defend their rights, and had the spirit en guard their preperty. He much regretted the die trees of the manufacturers, but trusted that, as both the large manufacturers and the farmers were doing well, there would be a race of emulatieu between them in their desires to do I the utmost to benefit the condition of those who depended upon them. I Mr. SLA '11:R cougratulsted thrm on the fell attendance that day. One thing he said was certain—that they were net afraid of the Times. It was true that to them (giving as they did all their Blowsy to labourers), some of the remarks of the Times, and coadjutor Punch, did not apply, but do not let them think they escaped. The Times was quits as hard on them es upon those societies which distributed their favour , between fat pigs and labourers. He should be the last man to undervalue the opinions of the press, bet he thought they should see what they were worth, and on this sub ject of the labourer the Times expressed the opinions et Mr. John Walter, of Ilearwood, a very wealthy and benevolent individual, but like many others a crotchetty man. Now, he would ask them, which was most likely to be right, Mr. John Walter and the Times, and Punch, and the Examinee, or the landed proprietors, the clergy, and the yeomanry of England, fur it came to that. They knew that the autumn, though a very lively time in the country, was a dull one in political runes, anti it was from sheer want of a subject for a little ridicule that these attacks were made. Leading articles must be written, and accordingly just as members of parliaruent had departed for partridge-shooting, the editor of the Times took his pop-gun, aud had a shot at a scientific meeting,. which fcr tunetely at that time met at Southampton, and just as mem bers or.: getting into their saddles after the hounds the editor of the Times mounts his hobby and rode at the Agri cultural Society. In a good cause, the influence of the Times was very groat ; but he believed it would not succeed iu putting down either scientific associations or agricultural meetings. Let thcmdo their duty in their severalcapacities, but dont let them expect the praise of the Times, for they would tot pet it. Conceive a leader in the Times in praise of the agriculturists. V:hy, what a stupid article it would be. Conceive three articles a week in praise of them were now three against them. Why, the readers of the Times would say it was getting intolerably dull, and they must lock out for another paper. The fact is, they were all too fond of hearing each other abused. Ile did certainly feel indignant at the Times for making a most uncalled for and ungenerous attack upon a reverend friendof his (Mr. Ytatman) for a speech which he recently delivered. The boo. member said, as it was not his intention to make a long speech he would " start a fresh hare," and he then discussed the game laws. He deprecated the excessive preservation of game, and the un-English system of (tartars. He also expressed himself as opposed to legislative inter 'ference la the matter : the truant, he thought had the game pretty much in his own hands, for if tilt landlords saw that 1 tenants would not take farms overstocked with game, he would begin to consider a hether he was not paying too dear fur his whistle. Mr. Ftoven also addressed the company. Sir Eawaan BAKEIt, in returning thanks for the health of the vice-president, occasioned considerable merriment by gravely discussing the question started by the Times why " unmentionables" were not given to labourers as well as coats and waistcoat,. He really thought they mast turn their attention to the subject, and decide at their next meeting whether trousers or breeches would be most advantageous to work in. (Great laughter.) They must also discuss of what they were to be made. He would say linen ; and recommended flax, for he hail some for sale. (Much laughter.) He etould be prepared by next meeting to sup , ply a certain number of pairs of breeches, and if they slid nut wear them themselves, they would net upon another fundamental law, and area other persons to wear them. (Great laughter and cheering.) After some other humorous and good humoured remarks upon sans culottes, and after several other healths had been given and responded to, the meeting separated. --- -- CITY ELECTIONS. This being St. Thomas's day, wardmotcs were held in the several wards, for the election of members to sit in the Court of Common Council. Loth-slats:Er WARD returns four members.—A ward mote wes held in the Ward Schools, St. Mary Axe, Alder man Farebrother in the chair. After the precept had been read, and the inquest men for the ensuing year returned, Mr. G. Rowson was re-sleeted want beadle. Tho following letter from deputy Mitchell was read : " Gentlemen, Having for the last few years intimated my desire to retire from public duties, I avail myself of this o?"..rtunity to apprize you that it is not my intention again to sol:eit the honour of repre senting you in the Court of Common council. I cannot re tire into private life without acknowle ttring, with every ex pression of gratitude, the many acts of i:indness and friend ship I have experienced from you, which have let im preseion on my mind that can never be forgotten. I have resided among you for upwards of fifty years ; during the last twentv-two of which i have been unanimously elected in the responsible onsltion above re ferred to. In that capacity IWV the necessity of endeavouring, in the committee and elsewhere, to obtain a reduction of those burthcns which in my opinion pressed too heavily on you, and is many instances, I am happy to y, my efforts proved successful. During the time I have held the appointment of deputy of the ward, I have with anxious care endeavoured to discharge the various duties entrusted to me to the best of my ability. In bid ding you farewell, it will be a source of gratification to me to witness your continued prosperity and hap piness.—The worthy alderman, and several inhabitants, bore testimony to the faithful manner in which Mr. Mitchell performed his duties. The following gentlemen were then elected to serve as commen-councilmen for the year ensuing: Dniel Cork, Thomas Bridge Simpson, Thomas Symons, and Wi a lliam P ounce ; the two last are new members in the room et Deputy Mitchell and Mr. Cosser, resigned. BISTIOPSOATE WARP.—In addition to the former members. Messrs. Tagg and Gilpin were proposed, and a poll demanded. COLF.MAN-sTREET WARP.—At a warlinotc held in the Ward Schools, London-wall, Alderman W. Hunter in the chair, the following gentlemen were rc-*leeted common coun cilmen: Messrs. Allen (Deputy), Hall / NV. Ilall, Davis, Johnson, Phillips , Bracher, and Perkins. BILLINGSGATE WARD. A waramote was held at the Fellowship Porters' Hall, St. Mary-at-Hill, when the fol lowing gentlemen we re proposed for common councilmen fir the year ensuing: Mes.rs. Curling, Old, jun., Bower, Knit', Johnston. Robats, Phillips, Williams. Foremost EN WARIL—A very strong contest is expected in this ward, the electors of the Jewish persuasion being de termined to opposa. every person who voted :pains! Mr. Salomon when he stood for Alderman of the Ward. llonnißLE MURDER AND SUPPOSED SUICIDE.- This forenoon, between the hours of 10 and 11, the imme diate vicinities of the Waterloo-road and the water side were thrown into i. state of the utmost excitement, in consequence of the following appalling discovery, which leaves no doubt that a dreadful murder had been perpetrated. The follow ing particulars were obtained from personal observation, and may therefore be relied upon as being strictly accuf ate :—lt appears that at the time previously stated. two boys who ob tain a living by dredging along the water side. whilst passing along the bed of the river nearlyopposite to Waterloo Dock, the property of Mr. West, they were astonished at finding the body of what they at first believed to he a man. They immediately repaired to Cross-street, Waterloo-road, the re sidence of Mr. Anderson, the coroner's constable. That officer without delaysent a number nube of men with shell to the spot to take possion body. The same being firmly embedded in the mud, the greatest cliff howeulty ver, the was ex perienced in getting to the exact sp t; at last, object in question was reached, and upon turning the same over a horrible scene presented itself; instead of finding, as they at first imagined, the body of a man, they discovered that it way the body of a femele, with a child tied round her waste with a piece of rope yarn. The feeling created by the sight can be better imagined than described. Irian instant the news ran round the neighbourhood, and hundreds of persons hastened to the sot to witness the ene. The tuns of the were both pressed round the sc neck of the child, lea'. ing one to suppose that in the agonies of death, she was firmly pressing the little innocent to her breast. The two Saint s were immediately r eoved to the vaults of t John's Church in the Waterloo.road, where a more minute examination was made. It w tl as y about then found nt th hs at the child was of the mole sex, apparen 14 mo old ; the female seemed to be between 33 and 36 years of age. The latter was dressed in an old backl stuff gown, black stockings. and side lace-up hoots. Tesit of the ap. pare! appeared very old and ranged. The child, a fine-looking boy, wore (to all appearance), a black frock, Eng worsted socks, and calico under -clothing. The dress oe two o denoted extreme po vert y . How the parties met their f the de of course it would be at present impossible to tell ; one thing, however, is certain, that murder has been committed ; fz - , 2° Z,/ 643teiS No. 961 LONDON, AIONDAY EVENING, DEC.2I, 1846. but whether the to n v ere fin: tied together by a tiiird party, and afternards ri•O .ed into t'ne rive; or whether the female murderk d the chi' ;:ltd elestr.,yed her own life, must fa. sometime remain a r . , y , t „ 3 „ The latter, however, seems to be the most likely sent to Mr. Jppesitiou. Immediate intelligence has been Carter the coroner, who will hold an inquest. COMMERCIAL, h MARKETS. MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGE.NCE. Hoy:past Two eaoric—The funds were quoted rather better at the come encement of business. Consols 93; to L But the market was without animation, and the lbst appearance of sellers depressed them forthwith to 935 to I, at which rates the y now remained. Some anxiety is felt abort the effect upon 'he hank reserves of gold of any cons!derahle telex, to or. her parts besides the United States, for which a demand of considerable extent has alreiuly set in. There would appear not suffi cient reason, however, for t , pprehension on that head, toeing that by the returns of the week ending the 12th in stant, the Bank had ectually aided 150,640/. to its before large store, then accumulated to 15,163,5131. on the average of th , week. The reserve of notes in the banking departmer,twasalso increased to 8,623,8151., so that the Bank could add several millions more to its active circulation, were there a demand for it, without touening the limits, wl en the outflow of gold must neeessite the curtailment o• active circulation. The circula tion in activity was less in that week on an aver . by £79,885 than the week before. It was sapposed that with the change et - Ithel a huge number of vessels front the United States might be expected in th s port and Liv:rpool. Bat from Friday to date only 16 or 17 are reported at the latter place, so that no s cry great addition to the stack of bread stuffs has been received from that quarter so far, and therefore not much more money will be tatted for in return.

The floating ice has disappeared from the river, and the navigation is now free again. The receipts into this port, coastwise, during the past week, both of Wheat and Flour hate been moderate ; and this raorninu's supply of the former article, by land carriage simples from the near counties was by no means large, but owing to the condi tion of must of the samples being . much affected by the datr.,, weather, the wide was not beak. Fine dry parcels sold readily enough at an improvement of fully 2a. per qr. upon the quotations of Monday last ; whilst the inferior qualities were difficult to quit at le. advance, and some portion of the supply remaiud over unsold at a late hour. Free foreign wheat must be quoted fully 3s. higher than this day se'nnight, but the transactions therein were nut so extensive vs of late. The millers have advanced the top price of Flour to 60s. pet . sack. Barrel Flour, bath bonded and free, has improved in value 2s. per barrel. English Barley in short supply, and tine malting qualities were 23. to 3s. dearer. fl-tilling and grinding sorts were 2s. higher. We continue but moderately supplied with English and Scotch Oats, and such bang scarce, fine qualities command 2s. more money. Irish and foreign, of which the supply was more plentiful, could only be sold at an advance of Is. per quertZr.

MANCHESTER, DEC. 19.-The past week has been one of great excitement in the corn trade, and every article connected with it has been eagerly sought; after, at rapidly advancing prices. The demand for Ireland continues on a most extensive, and unprecedented scale,-the wants of that country, daily developing themselves with more urgency and force. At Liverpool and Wakefield yesterday, a large business was done, at greatly enhanced rates. liVe have a good attendance at this day's market, and Wheat of all descriptions is readily ealeahle at an advance of Cel. to Brl. per bushel. 'f he stock of free Flour is much reduced ; for all qualities there is a good inquiry, and we raise our quo- tations 4s. to .55. per sack, and 3s. per barrel.

NEWCA , ILE-ON-TYNE, DEC. 19.-The weather this week has been, for the most part, of a very wintry character, heavy falls of snow having been experienc.d from time to time, which has rendered tho roads almost impassable. ' Yesterday, however, a thaw set in, which still continues. At our market this morning, owing, douhtlese , to the roads Wing I I rendered almost impassable from the inclemency of the weather, we had an extremely moderate show of Wheat from the growers; but being without any arrivals coastwise, a clearance was early effected, at aa advance of 3e. to 4s. per qr., South Country qualities, ss well as frees foreign, being as much dearer; but our mil lers did not operate very extensively, wishing to see the effect likely to be produced by the anticipated supplies l upe& the trade, previous to going largely int o stock. Flour I was relied to-day by our millers to 525. per sack, and should the advance be established, choieehouseholds will be saleable os. e u d , f d o l r e. ex p t e nt r task us ; as . ye ity t, hev Rye i o s w mu e c r u , e e n Se vii . h e al not been for, and would readily command 325. per qr.
