THE revenue accounts for the year and quarter ending 10th October, 1846, are highly satisfactory. Theyindicate a generally prosperous state of the country; and they bear testimony to the soundness of the views which prompted the recent extensive changes in our system of taxation. There is an increase both for the year and the quarter, on the corresponding period is 1841 The increase on the year is stated as no more than 88,2611., but this is owing to the imprest and the re payments of advances being taken into account. Confining our view to the ordinary revenue, the true barometer of the political atmosphere, we find an increase on six of its branches to the amount of 955,3741.; from which a decrease of 531,6191. on two of its branches being deducted, leaves a nett increase of 424,755/. The increase in the ordinary revenue on the quarter is 869,198 7 .; from which deducting a decrease of 65,359/. on two of its branches, leaves 803,739/. The principal decrease on the year (30,000/. de ficit under the head of Crown Lands scarcely deserves notice) is in the Customs. In this branch there is a decrease on the year of 501,619 7 . But in recompense there is an increase on the quarter of 462,4721. The principal deficiency for the year is on the quarter ending April sth, 1846. But all of the quarters end ing respectively sth April, sth July, and 10th October, 1845, and sth January, sth April, and sth July, 1846, are below the average. The quarter just ended is the first in which the larger returns on diminished rates of duty are beginning to tell. And the extreme lowness of the Customs returns for the quarter ending sth April, 1846, indicates the cause which has prevented them from telling sooner. It was the despondency which prevailed before the weakness of the Protectionists was felt. The Protectionists will doubtless attribute the increase on the quarter ending on the 10th instant, to large importations of foreign grain. We believe that these importations will be found pretty equally spread over the last six quarters. But fortunately the state of the Excise returns comes to our aid, to show the general prosperous condition of the country. The increase in the Excise for the year is 182,1771., and fur the quarter 226,8201. This increase is a continuation of that shown by the returns of July : it marks the steady and rapid recovery from the loss sus tained by the abolition of the duties on glass, and the targe reductions on other articles. At all times an Increase in the Excise returns denotes an improved condition of the people: increased consumption. Bach an increase as we now record with diminished rates of duty is extremely satisfactory. The only articles upon which there is a decrease in the last quarter, are " stamps " and " miscellaneous." The 39,518/. of falling off on the latter, spread over so many items:is inappreciable. The 5,8111. decrease on stamps, is attributable to the absence of the mania for railway speculation which swelled that item last autumn ; and affords good ground for congratulation. On the Post-office there is an increase of 111,0001. on the year, and of 8,0001. on the quarter. This, again, is an unequivocal symptom of business activity, and general prosperity. Were the system of Row- LAND Ilti.L fairly and entirely carried into effect, this increase would be still more marked. Altogether, these returns denote a healthy state of the bock• politic : such a condition as might be wished to enable it to meet the partial destitution which must be grappled with during the impending winter. MR. GRANTLEY F. BERKELEY seems destined to point a moral " in more ways than one. In his great character of game-law preserving and anti poaching advocate, his celebrated " punch-on-the head" theory indicates how much love of the old feudal club-law may survive Revolutions and Reform Bills. As a " mighty lover of the great deer, " he rivals Witt.tam the CoNguEnott ; and extends his regard to the lower varieties of game in a way the Norman forest lawyer never dreamed of. Then, while assailing the Press for its intolerable prying into aristocra tic amusements, he dots not shrink from employing its aid, at one time, to draw the veil of privacy from the life of some "dear" friend, and to violate all the sanc tions of private correspondence; at another, to hint at the " predominant shadows " which darken the repu tation of a noble and near relative. In his letter to " the independent electors" of West Gloucestershire, he developer the thorough dependence of that independent body; and proves at the same time that he, their " freely chosen " mem ber, has, ever since he took his seat, been tied hand and foot by the will of Lord FITZIIARDINGE. The letter, with the transactions it discloses, shows, very curiously, the working of the nominee system, still, spite of the Reform Bill, active in our venerable constitution. This system, the reverse of mercy, is " twice cursed." " It mates him that gives and him that takes " We see it making a despot of the nominor, and a puppet of the nominee. The moment the strings cease to work, or the pliant joints stiffen, away with the puppet ! LOrCi FITZHARDTNGE, it appears from the letter, placed Mr. GRANTLEY F. BERKELEY " precisely on the spot where he now stands." Mr. G. F. BERKELEY declares "he is so far and no farther, by Lord FirrznAaniNGE's immediate desire, and with his personal concurrence." Could any " dummy " . . have been more tractable? Yet in spite of this abro gation of nominee comp!ains that his brother, patron and nominor, "leaves him at the spot to which his (nominee's) obedience to his (nominor's) wishes led him." Nominee does not ask much. He was ready to have retrograded or advanced at the word of command. At least his previous pliability warranted nominor in inferring so. Nominee ought, as he very properly remarks, "to have had the option of taking either step by his (nominor's) will." He (Jaime this by " every law of courtesy and justice." He means, "by every precedent of servility and submis sion." But he forgets the relation he stands in to his noble relative. According to ARISTOTLE, there are no rights or duties a s between master and slave. NOminor and nominee are the political representa tives of these relationships respectively. Nominee has fulfilled non-existent duties, and appeals to non-existent rights. At the same time it fa hard to be flung aside like an old glove, after being worn for years, and found so easy. If nominee's coat was to be turned inside out, how did nominor know nominee would not glory in wearing it so He should have "given him the option." With all this devotion, nominee has not served him self. Quite the reverse. He has "sacrificed himself" to the real interests of the county. That is, of course, to the wishes and desires of his excellent relative. Noble but ill-rewarded self-devotion. Lord Frrr- HARDINGE is about " to sever the political ties so honorable to the old castle!" " Ties" is a good phrase. It represents the real state of the case. The Western Division of the large county of Glouces ter is really, we find, tied to Berkeley Castle. The leaders that pull its principles this way and that, run through the front gate of that vener able pile up to the study in which Lord FaZHAR DINOE sits and works them. We are glad to know his Lordship so honourably employed. Are our readers curious to ascertain the price of a county ? It is lower than might be expected. It is " payment of the registration expenses of the district." Of course there are tenants' votes and tradesmen's too, but the above is the direct payment. And to give us new delight and self-gratulation, they are Liberal voices which are thus bought and sold. We are doubly bound, as Liberals, to make this fact known. Altogether the triple group, nominor, nominee, and county voters, come out very charmingly under the light of this plaintive letter. Property has its rights. One of the most valuable is that of buying opinions : the" golden opinions" SIMKSPEARE speaks of. And while men are found to sell such wares, of course property will use its right and buy them. Law cannot touch the traffic. It is carried on as snugly as the poacher's trade with his landholder in live game and eggs. Those who make the law wink at its vio lation. This plan affords a valuable schooling of the public morality. No wonder our representative sys tem is the wonder of the world. Law affords, we have said, no remedy for such a state of things. if shame can affect it, such letters as Mr. G. F. BERKELEY'S are most valuable. They furnish, like the poacher's confession to the country gentle man, valuable hints for prevention. A volume of nominees' letters, a modern .Epistolet obscarorum Viroruns, would be invaluable to the schoolmasters of public opinion. They should, however, be written grammatically. Mr. GaisrLev F. BERKELEY, in the publication of his letter, is but carrying out his noble mission of self-sacrifice on a larger scale. He has long, he tells West Gloucestershire, sacrificed himself to the "real interests" of that district. He is now, by this ample confession, immolating his reputation to the real interests of the country at large. What greater violation of private confidence could even the plebeian Press have committed than this, in which a gentleman, with his own hand, records his patient endurance of political slavery in the regions (to use his own remarkable words) of those " mischievously ruling or predominant shadows that unhappily arc already too well known as imperiously existing in the quarter whence the aspersion comes;" and in which, we may add, the submission of Mr. G. F. BERKELEY has been so long abjectly and cheer fully tendered Is this unhappy servility of member and constitu ency inherent in oar money-loving English nature? Legislation, it is certain, is powerless against it. Would education be equally ineffective ? It is idle to attribute it to one party more than another. Wood stock is a Tory borough, but West Gloucestershire is a Liberal county. Thereis nothing in the profession of principles to restrain the rich and noble from buying votes, or the needy and servile from selling them. But in the cultivation of self-respect, and the true conception of political privileges and duties, is a means of shaming the former class, and elevating the latter ; perhaps of ennobling both, into an equal scorn of the offer and its acceptance. To this enlightenment alone we look with hope : determined, meanwhile, never to let slip the opportunity of a sermon on such an in structive text as Mr. G. F. BERKELEY'S letter. Tile circumstances which attended SANTA ANNA'S return to Mexico ;—his apparently good understanding with the agents of England and of the United States at the Havanah; the facilities fur landing and the deference shown him by Commodore CONNOR and the American blockading squadron ;—all corroborated the prevalent opinion, that the ex-president returned to Mexico with the consent and assistance of foreign lowers; and that his re-installation in the rank of first officer of the republic, would be the signal of peace and accommodation. Those ideas and hopes are not, as yet, directly contradicted. But the delay of SANTA ANNA in resuming an authority to which there seems no opponent, naturally gives rise to doubts as to the sincerity and consistency of his conduct. SANTA ANNA is a very able man ; a • second Boss- PARTE he calls himself. We will not answer for the similitude. He is most unprincipled, certainly ; he has given proofs of the most daring courage at one time, and of most inexplicable cowardice at others ; but, after all, he stands as high above other Mexicans, as the Popocatapeti above the Table Land. His address to the Mexicans on his re turn is a strange compound ; very able ; containing a great many truths, a great many lies, and in passages almost as mystic as a Mormon's manifesto. There is here and there, however, a naivete about it which deserves credit. " I once tried," SANTA ANNA tells the Mexicans, with great frankness, "to establish a government based on the support of the upper classes; on the proprietors, the educated, the professional, the few of property and enlightenment ; vain attempt ; those classes were divided, were waver ing, were corrupt, were incapable of giving a govern meat that support on which alone it could live. Upon these higher classes, much as I should like to favour them, and protect them, and rule by them, still I have found it vain to rest; and I shall not try again. Expe rience of them has forced me to try the democracy, and to put faith in the people at large; from whom alone I can expect some zeal, some patriotism, some disinterested ness, and some of that support, requisite for a govern ment, Which must not only provide for internal tran quillity, but for defence of the national territory against invasion and conquest." Such, paraphrased into plain English, is the lan guage of SANTA ANNA. It is impossible not to give it and him some credit for sincerity. Relying upon the people, continues SANTA ANN.►, " I shall no longer be obliged, like my predecessors, to sustain the army in great towns to keep down the population; but trusting to that population for some tranquillity, I can employ the army, if necessity require it, against the country's foes." No language can be more plausi ble. No conduct can look more like honesty, or be better calculated for facing, even with the purpose of i l making peace, the pretensions of that most exorbitant and merciless foe which now presses upon Mexico. Unfortunately we have to relate, that, correspond ing with this mistrastful and ambiguous attitude of SANTA ANNA, the Americans have resumed their projects of aggression. It is not so much the activity or progress of General TAYLOR which evinces this, for he seems paralysed at Matamoras, and obliged to move heaven and earth to make even in eight months an advance on Monterey. But it would seem that an expedition is proceeding against Tampico, the second port of the republic ; and this may be the scene of more formidable operations than Mateunoras. At any rate, it gives immediate facilities and advantages to American trade, which the possession of Nlatamoras gave but partially. Our readers perhaps are not aware of, or may not have paid particular attention to, the pecu liar mode of American naval warfare. The Ame ricans have been used to make dreadful outcry against our old principles of blockade. But their own is something so new and so monstrous, 1 that how our Government has quietly tolerated and abided by it, is indeed passing strange. They have declared that all the ports which they shall seize in Mexico, shall be open to their own trade in all commodities; and exclusively to their own trade. They will allow no goods to enter that have not been nationalised in American ports, and paid duty to the American customs. Manchester pro duce must give way to Lowel. They declare oar calicoes contraband of war, bless the mark ! Their own are innocent, and may go to clothe the Mexicans without any remorseful encourage ment of a foe that pays in dollars. Such THE EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 12, 1846. being the system adopted by them, and tolerated by us, we are not surprised at their attacking Tam pico. It may oast the Washington treasury some dollars, but these dollars will find their way back immediately into the pockets of the New Englanders. 'The Mexicans will not suffer much. It is only Jam; NULL ; who, as usual, bears the blows of both, as of all belligerent parties in every quarter of the globe. Meantime, whilst the Americans are sailing against Tampico, less bent upon carrying its fortifications than its custom-house by assault, SANTA ANNA is declaring against the machinations of his predecessor, who conspired, he says, to introzluce an European monarch into Mexico. It is very possible that PAREDES and HERRERA may have been so foolish; very possible that, feeling themselves and the state drowning in the troubled waters of Mexican disorder, they might try to grasp, like ITURBIDE, that straw sceptre which LEAR brandished, and which betokens monarchy. It is however but idle and transparent by pocrisy,—this rousing of the popular indignation against a visionary and a mad project,—while the stern and solid reality of Anglo-American conquest is actually on the threshold, nay, within the precincts, of the Mexican empire. We know not what to think of SANTA ANNA. Whether he be BauTus the fool, playing the idiot before his oppressors, or BRUTUS the patriot, meditating his country's liberation, remains an enigma for time alone to solve. THERE is no situation in which a mild though firm disposition, and a temper completely under the con trol of reason, is more indispensably required than in the keeper of a House of Correction. Every glimpse of passion or vindictiveness which a person in that situation allows to escape from him, diminishes his authority. Every infliction of pain or privation that prisoners can ascribe to his anger or personal pique, counteracts the effect intended to be produced by punishment,---by justifying them in their own eyes. They are taught to look upon themselves as only the weaker parties in a struggle ; not as con strained by a passionless and impartial law. These remarks are applicable to all entrusted with the charge of criminals, however subordinate their position ; but they are of most consequence in the case of a person entrusted with the management of a penal establishment. The appearance made by Mr. SIBLEY, governor of the Brixton House of Correction, when summoned by Mr. NORTON on Friday last to hear the state ments made by MARIA ROAST to his prejudice, was hardly such as to inspire much confidence in his tem ,' per and judgment. Mr. NORTON'S object in sending for him was friendly: to afford him an opportunity of explaining statements, which certainly were sus ' ceptible of explanation, and which as certainly re quired it. Mr. SIBLEY, however, appears to have felt his dignity outraged by the mere supposition that anything a prisoner might say could affect him. lie haughtily complained of being "taken away from an important duty" to attend to such a trumpery case ; interrupted Mr. NORTON more than once, with remarks characterised alike by petulance and levity ; and, in short, so conducted himself that the brow-beaten magistrate declared he would beware of again incur ring such treatment by sending for Mr. SIBI.EY on any future occasion, to let him know when anything was said against him. Mr. SIBLEY'S wilful and obstinate misapprehension of Mr. NORTON'S motives, would of itself afford reason to question his fitness for the office he holds ; and his admissions respecting the treatment of the girl ROAST, render his qualifications still more doubtful. The prisoner stated that on account of her violence a tight pair of handcuffs were put upon her, an easier pair she had previously worn not being removed. Her hands were by these double ligatures fastened behind her back ; and in this condition she was allowed to remain from mid-day, to eight o'clock on the following morning. In this condition, as if to tantalise her, some bread was placed in her lap. The girl, it is obvious enough, is a violent and untractable cha racter ; but confinement was the only punishment she had legally incurred. The restraint of the handcuffs was necessary to check her destructive propensities; but that end having been attained, the double handcuffs, the hunger, the privation of sleep she was compelled to endure, were mere wanton inflictions of pain, or the vindictive expression of the gaoler's offended dignity. Yet while Mr. NORTON was dwelling upon the impropriety of such treatment, Mr. SIBLEY interrupted him to observe that " it was very often done ;" and when Mr. NORTON enlarged upon the cruelty, Mr. SIBLEY coolly remarked that he " knew instances where prisoners were kept one, two, and even three days in the state of which the prisoner complained." This incautious admission of Mr. 'SIBLEY esta blishes the necessity of inquiring into the treatment to which prisoners are subjected at the Brixton House of Correction. The charges of MARIA ROAST might have been disregarded as the vindictive calumnies of a violent and profligate woman. But the truculent deportment of the governor towards the magistrate, and the extra-legal additions to pun: shment which he admits he is in the habit of inflicting, render inquiry into the general management of the institution under his charge inevitable. Where prisoners are, at the dis cretion of the governor, tied up with two pairs of hand cuffs at once; kept one, two, or three days so manacled that they cannot sleep except from exhaustion, nor cat except by grovelling on the ground like dogs ; insubordination is inevitable. Prisoners are always insubordinate when they know that they are made to suffer more than the law warrants, to gratify the spleen or self-will of the governor. When such a mood is engendered among prisoners, it is by brute force alone that turnkeys and warders can keep them in subordination. In a House of Correction, where discipline such as Mr. SIBLEY confesses to is enforced, the scene described by MARIA ROAST is quite conceivable. The mockery of laying a bible and prayer-book beside the inmate of a cell too dark to read in, is quite in keeping. There is not only pro bability but possibility, in the crescendo grotesque brutality of the struggle through all its gradations ; from the sending a male turnkey into the cell to re move the woman's clothes, up the whole gamut of her Billingsgate, to the frantic tearing of her raiment, leaving herself scarcely enough for the purposes of decency, and to the grand finale of her assaulting the turnkey with the same weapon which PALLETT, in Perep inePickle,is made to brandish against his French prototype. Much of this may be the invention of an angry and reckless woman; but after the manner in which Mr. SIBLEY deported himself in the police court at Lambeth, and the cool revelations respecting his system of prison discipline which he made there, investigation is necessary to re-assure the public. We have received the Paris journals of Friday with our private correspondence. Those of the Court show little disposition to relax their vehemence on the Spanish question. A telegraphic despatch, dated Madrid, 7th October, which reached Paris on Friday, states : " The French princes entered Madrid, on horseback, at three in the afternoon of yesterday, the weather being most beautiful. Their royal highnesses were welcomed on all sides with marked respect and sympathy. The Queen and Infanta received them admirably. Madrid had yesterday the aspect of a day of rejoicing. Perfect tranquillity reigns there to-day." The Journal des Deficits continues its itinerary of the French princes more in the style of a writer of romance than of a journalist. M. I)uniiis, the most prolific novelist of the day, who went in the suite of the princes in the official character of historiographer of the ceremonies, seems to have had something to do with the picturesque articles which adorn the columns of the Debats from day to day, and which bear the date of the Royal procession. The Dada replies to the article we quoted from the Constitutionnel. It acknowledges that Lord Normanby read to M. Guizot on Monday a copy of the note which Mr. Bulwer was authorised to transmit to the Spanish Cabinet, and in substance admits the purport of that document. But it insists that the conditions of the treaty of Utrecht are fulfilled by the renunciation of the French crown by the Duke of Montpensier. " We doubt much," say, the Wait, "that the recent note of the British pummel:it demands the renunciation of the Spanish crown by the Infanta. No foreign government whatever could think of making such a demand on a sove reign and independent state. Neither do we believe that the British cabinet has expressed its persuasion that all the great powers of Europe would take the same view of the cowequences of the Montpen , ier marriage. The British cabinet can only speak in its own name." - - - •• • • - . The National says that it believes that " M. Ouizot must have received last night a sort of ulti matum on the Spanish question, for he sent, at a late hour last night (Thursday), to awaken one of his secretaries, who came in all haste to the Foreign-office, and laboured with the minister until this morning (Friday). It seems also that a note of no very agreeable sort has been received from Austria on the same subject. The old and decrepid treaty of Utrecht is the around of these discussions. We are thus, after two revolutions, which have established the right of the people to rule themselves, being brought hack into the pretensions of a past age. Such is the fate of powers that are unfaithful to their mission. The treaty of Utrecht is a dead letter with tree nations. It is, however, a living fact for royal preten sions, and we may regard it as a merited chastisement that as Europe should combine against a dynasty which has separated its personal interests from the interests of the nation." La France states that— " The expected visit of King Leopold to Paris is connected with a contemplated mediation on his part between the King of the French and the British Government, with a view to assuage the irritation produced by the Spanish marriages." The prefects of the different departments of France have intimated to the government the necessity of employing a considerable portion of the population on public works, in consequence of the insufficiency of the harvests. The Ministers of the Interior, of Com merce, of Public Works, and of Finances, are, ac cordingly, taking the most active measures with that object. The battle between the Free-trade party and the Protectionists in France has regularly opened. Each day one leading journal or another takes up the ques tion. Free-trade societies are everywhere starting up, and as soon as the excitement of the Spanish question has subsided the commercial question will become prominent, The Nationd, of to-day, takes up the Protectionist side, which will, probably, be that of the leading organs of the opposition. The ministerial journals, it is needless now to say, have already sounded the trumpet in favour of free-trade, although in a very moderate and cautious tone. The National declares its intention of advancing again and again to the charge, and, as it has begun with the old arguments of the English Protectionist party I which have been listened to and refuted even to weariness, we may expect that all the discussions which have filled the English press for several years back, and especially for the last two or three years, are now about to be reproduced on the one side and the other in the Paris journals. 'fhe French government, with the view of tran quillising the apprehensions arising from the high prices of corn, is said to contemplate issuing an order to all contractors for the supply of the army and navy, and the public service in general, that they must derive their supplies from the foreign markets. This will cause a slight augmentation of the budget, but it will be the means of giving much relief to the working classes. Nothing can exceed the scandalous abuses of the Paris post-office. Our correspondent states, that up to the time of closing this dispatch he had not re ceived a single provincial or foreign journal or letter. The English journals of Tuesday were not delivered until seven o'clock in the evening of Thursday. Re monstrances have been vain. The French press exerts little influence to repress official abuses. The despatches of our Paris correspondent of Satur day's date have also arrived by our usual express, and with them the French and other foreign journals. The Debuts has taken time to breathe, and has filled the blank left is its columns by the momentary suspension of the marriage question, by an article on the state of Ireland. The Presse returns to the charge, and fulminates another article at Lord Palmerston. Admitting that it is impossible to deny that a very grave misunder standing has arisen between France and England on this marriage question, it asks—" What is to be the issue ?" France, strong in her sense of right, cannot yield to a resistance justified by no international en gagements. After referring to the state of Europe at the end of the 17th century, and drawing a parallel between the position of Louis XIV. then and Louis Philippe now, in relation to England and other powers, the writer concludes with answering the question, " How will it all end ?" " Evidently, as it ended in 1711 by a change of policy in England, the Whigs desire to reserve the right of war on this ground; they claim to forbid absolutely to the dcscendsnta of a prince of the reigning house of France the right of as cending the Spanish throne; they reject now, as they did in 1700, a 3 compromise. But the Tories de:ire peace. They do not claim unreasonably to forbid the exercise of a legitimate right. They are satisfied with securing the object of the Treaty of Utrecht, by separating the crowns of France and Spain, as they were in 1713. Louis XIV. resisted the Whigs, and as he had on his side right, reason, and the desire of peace, he prevailed. Louis Philippe will resist the Whigs like Louis XIV., and as he has on his side, besides the right, the Treaty of Utrecht and the public opinion of Europe, he will like wise prevail. Queen Anne changed her ministers, and peace was signed. Queen Victoria will change her ministers, and peace will be maintained. Behold, how it all will end !" We find the following in the France: " We are able to announce in the most formal manner that diplomatic declarations, emanating from Paris, have been communicated to the Great Powers, confirming former and adding new guarantees that the crowns of Spain and France can never be united on the same head. It only rem 'ins to be known whether this declaration will be deemed sufficient, or whether England will persist in exacting a renewal of the renunciation made by the Treaty of Utrecht, so far as may relate to the children to be born of the marriage of the Duke de Montpensier and the Infanta Donna Luisa of Spain." - - - The Dues de Montpcnsier and d'Aumale are ex pected at Bayonne on the 2:3rd or 24th, on their return from Spain. They will pass a day in that town, where a grand file will he given to them. The next day the Due d'Aumale will leave for Paris, and the royal bridegroom and his bride will proceed to Pau, where they will stay two or three days. M. Damon, Minister of Public Works, has returned from England, and Vice-Admiral Mackau from his tour of inspection on the coast. The Patric states that the Minister of Foreign Affairs is about to make some diplomatic changes. Several ambassadors and ministers plenipotentiary are, it is said, to be placed on the retired list, and two young deputies are spoken of as amongst the succes sors. M. de Barante, jun., it is added, is to be a secretary of embassy. According to the same account, there are to be, on the return of the Minister of the Interior, several changes in the prefectures. M. Le Vcrrier, the discoverer of the new planet, member of the French Academy of Sciences, has been promoted officer of the Legion of Honour. M. Galle of Berlin, who first observed the said planet, has been nominated member of the same order. _ . . Letters from Geneva, to the date of the 6th, have brought accounts of serious disturbances in that city arising out of the disputes with the Catholic Can tons. Four public meetings were held in the church of St. Gervais, attended by about 2,000 persons, at which violent harangues against the measures of the Grand Council of the Canton were delivered, and re solutions passed to the effect that " the decree of the council was unconstitutional, and would be null and void until the confederation shall decide upon it. At the meeting held on the evening of the sth, Mr. James Fazy declared that, although the moment to act had not yet arrived, since the government had scarcely a hundred men under arms, yet that it behoved them to be vigilant The meeting, with the most furious shouts of "Liberty or death!" resolved to assemble 300 armed citizens to guard the Faubourg during the night. A report prevailed in Paris on Friday night and Saturday, that a revolutionary movement had taken place in Geneva on Wednesday (the ith). The council had called out six companies of militia. The Epoque which, on subjects of public policy, is understood to express the sentiments of M. Guizot, devoted its leading article on Saturday to the subject of free-trade, giving all the well-known arguments which demonstrate the benefit arising from a free interchange of commodities between different coun tries. We have onr usual communications from Madrid to the 4th instant. They do not bring any information of importance. The Herald° alludes to an assertion of some of its contemporaries, that, in the dispensation granted by the pope, the Queen was called the Princess Isabella, daughter of King Ferdinand VII. and Queen Maria Christina. The Herald° declares this to be unfounded, and gives the following os the words them selves of the document in question :—Dileetiasima Ifispaniarum Regina Elizabeth. The same journal adds that, according to its private letters from Rome, negotiations had been renewed between the Holy See and Spain, and that several conferences had taken place between M. Castillo y Ayensa and Cardinal Oizzi. A letter from Carthagena of the 30th, in the Herald°, says:— "An English steamer and a transport entered this port last evening. The steamer left the same evening, and the other vessel is to leave to-day. There are several vessels of war on the coast, all appearing to belong to the squadron." Mr. Bulwer was at Aranjuez, and it was supposed that he was about to proceed to Valencia. The government, though desirous, it was said, to give an amnesty, was unable to do so, as the moment was considered an unpropitious one: it will not, therefore, take place at present. The long-talked-of weddings in Spain will be destructive to the poor bulls of the country. To con ciliate the ill-humour of the people of Madrid there are to be brilliant (.'prides de Toros. Moves, Sevilla, El Ariclanero, the most celebrated artists, are to dis play their courage and address. Fifty bulls are to be given up to slaughter, forty horses are to be embowel led, seven or eight picadores are to be wounded, and some matadors will probably be killed on the arena, as happened once at Cape Milo, and then the fete will be complete. When our express left Paris the Madrid mail of the sth inst. had not arrived there. It was reported that the ceremony of the royal marriages would take place in the Hall of Ambassadors in the palace, and that on the following day the newly married couples would set off for the Escurial or Aranjuez. El Heralla positively denies the rumour that the Infanta would renounce her rights to the Crown of Spain, to satisfy the desires of the British cabinet. Leo del Cwucrcw and Clamor Public° protest against any idea of coalition between the Carlists and the Progressists. ' CONSTANTINOPLE, SEPT. 23. A flagrant breach of international law has just been committed here by the Austrian power, which I doubt not will fix public attention all the more, on account of the grave charges which have lately been brought forwtrd in the British parliament against that government. The same sinister unscrupulousness of means, and skulking treachery, which mark the acts then held up to the reprobation of Europe, arc no less visible in the instance I am about to mention. An Armenian Catholic priest and rayah has been snapped up by the authority of the Austrian minister, and whisked off in a Trieste steamer to Aucona, for trial before the Dominican tribunal at Rome. The pretence alleged for this outrage on the personal liberty of a subject of the Sultan, is that the priest has a Vienna passport, that biz life has been unholy, and that he has changed his religion. In the meantime the prisoner managed to make his escape at Smyrna. But for this, probably, the man would have been handed over by the inquisition at Rome to an Austrian dungeon, and no one would have heard a word about the matter. Johannes Serapian was brought up at the Catholic Armenian Convent of Mechtar at Vienna. From thence he came to Turkey, and took charge of a Catholic Arufbnian congregation at Angora in Asia. Two years ago he was accused of having formed a connexion with a woman of the place, and was expelled by the Catholic Armenian patriarch to Sivas. From Sivas he came to Constantinople, where he has relatives. Here he formed acquaintance-with the American protestant mission- I aries, and having embraced their religious views, was received into the small establishment which they maintain at Bebek, a village five miles up the Bosphorus, on the European side. During all this time, the Austrian authorities had not lost sight of John Serapian ; and were only waiting, it seems, fur a convenient opportunity to pounce upon hint. A visit which the converted priest was paying to his uncle at Pera presented a favourable moment for putting their designs in execution. While he was conversing with his uncle, a message arrived from the Catholic Armenian patriarch. Two kavasses of the Austrian embassy waited at the dosr ; and, securing his person, led him by the elbows down to Galata, and conveyed him on board the Imperatrice, an Austrian government steamer. In vain John Serapian protested against this vio lence ; in vain he asserted that he was not an Austrian sub ject, but a rayah subject of the Sultan, and showed his teskery, or permit of residence, and his receipt for the Handel', or capitation-t ix, which he had paid, as a proof of this. On board the steamer he was treated as a prisoner. The Imperatrice arrived at Smyrna on the afternoon of the 10th ; and, during the captain's absence on shore, the pri soner made his escape through the cabia window into a boat. No sooner was he landed than he took refuge in the house of an American missionary. The captain, as soon as he became aware th it his prisoner was flown, set on foot a strict search, and succeeded in tracing him to the missionary's abode. He called upon the latter in the name of his government to deliver up the refugee priest, whom he claimed as an Austrian subject and his prisoner. The missionary affirmed that John Serapian was not an Austrian subject, but a rayah subject of the Porte, and refused to give him up. Both then appealed to their Con suls, But Mr. Oflley, the American Consul at Smyrna, taking up the matter firmly, and being warmly seconded by the English Consul, Mr. Brant, the priest was placed under the tem l airary protection of the American flag, and the Austrian captain was obliged to sail without his prisoner. Meantime these gentlemen have written to the Ministers of their respective nations at Constintinop/e, and the matter is being debated with much animation at head-quarters. Count Sturmsr, and Mr. Carr, the Minister of the United States, have sent in notes to the Porte upon the subject; and no doubt Mr. Wellesley gives as much support as the nature of the question will allow him to the representations of the latter. The Porte has to demand reparation from Austria for a gross outrage upon one of the Sultan's subjects, and will, it is to be hoped, do so with becoming spirit and firmness. Finally, it is desirable that an illegal stretch of arbitrary power, stamped so strongly with bigotry and tyranny, and conducted in to underhand a manner, should be discountenanced as much as possible by the organs of public opinion in all civilised parts of the world. Thus alone some shame will be struck into that l'ower that seems less touched than any other with the liberal influences of our time, and continues to vex the fairest portions of Europe with the mint barbarous police the world has yet seen. Letters of good authority have been received from Cireassia, stating that a considerable fort in Abbassak had been taken from the Russians. The Circassians, it seems, fell in with a foraging party of Russians, and putting them to flight, pur sued theta so closely that they entered the outer precinct of the fort with them. They then turned upon the Russians their own guns. After some firing, a powder-magazine in the fort exploded, and the main body of the structure was blown up. About 200 Russians were killed by this acci dent, among whom were 30 officers. The loss on the part of the Circassians is not stated. In fact, the side on which the loss occurs depends entirely upon whether the news is received from Tagabroe or Circiussia. Bulletins from either source only mention the enemy's loss. But I believe that no doubt is entertained with regard to the destruction of the fort, the name of which I understand to be Asahjek. It is one of the latest built. There appears to be every ground for believing that the whole of the last Russian expedition against the Caucasus has turned out a complete failure. An enormous expenditure of men and money has resulted in mere discomfiture. The successes of Schamyl have roused the flagging spirit of the Ahasians , and united them once more in stera4, watchful, and impetuoue bonds against the common enemy. The last brays feat of these hardy mountaineers may probably be traced to the nfluence of the mission which Schamyl lately sent from Daghestam into their country to excite them to a more effective co-operation with him. For this purpose he despatched six cadis, with a body of 800 men to attend them. These were to disperse into separate valleys, to reconcile conflicting clans in a hearty resistance to the common enemy, and rouse them to an emulation of the deeds of their brother-warriors in Daghestan. l'rince Woroezoff is perhaps not sorry to exchange such rough neighbours for the Court of Vienna, where he has been appointed Russian ambassador. The joint expedition of the Pachas of Mossul and Bagdad against Ressoul Paths, hereditary governor of Rawandouz, has been so far successful. The chief town of the d.strict has fallen into their hands: and 400 or 500 Kurdish prisoners have been taken in the engagements which have taken place, who are to be sent to Constantinople. As for the other expedition, which is to be organized at Diarbekir, under the chief command of Ismael Pasha, before it takes the field, the Porte has d. termined upon sending a commissioner, named Nrzim Effendi, through the disturbed districts of Kurdistan, to inquire into the nature and grounds of the opposition which in offered to the central government ; to survey the state and wants of the population, and to show them their interest in the reforms which are sought to be established by the Sultan's government, and which have been so widely adopted throughout the empire. Some changes are contemplated in the composition of the cabinet. It is said that Khosref Pasha will be elevated to the rank of Grand Vizier, and that Riza Pasha will be re stored to the office of Grand Seraskier, which he enjoyed before his late fall.
