Various rumours are eirealttod to-day respecting • stalet between the Pit &Beattie and the Austriar • Sneseis, wording to some, being attributed to we and te others to the other. I csnnot trees thew; reams to any good source. It is mid that nose slicers of the army of the Alps hays reigned their commiss'ons, and gone int) the Berms of Charles Albert. Ls Proms Ma monks gives an article, pretend ing to a semi-Meld doter, in wh ich doubts ms thrown apes the statement that Sardinia has yd en end to the armistice. It is stated that not only the French minister at Turin has remonstrated against such a proceeding, but that a special agent has been sent from Paris to warn Charles Albert against a proceeding so perilous. It is added that a similar warning has been given by the English minister. In this article it is further seated that the principle of intervention claimed by the Pope from France, Austria. Spain, and Naples, has been acceded to by the four powers, and that no other question remains to be settled, except as to the means by which it may be most expedient for them to re-estab'ish the Papa authority. It is said that the representatives of the powers at Gaeta are to be furnished with express authorization to confer with the Pope on this subject. We may add, concludes La Prate, that if England in its quality of a Protestant power does not think itself callers on to associate directly in an intervention in favour of Piste IX., it does not approve the inten tion less, declaring itself ready to offer its moral sup port by sending a fleet to Axle ma and Civita Vecchia. .1 conkeence of the Preach and foreign physicians was held to-day in Paris, to decide upon the measures which it may be expedient to adopt in consequence of the diciest, the existence of which in Paris le now folly ascertained. In the National Assembly, the first reading was taken of the organic law as to the responsibility of public functionaries, and was adopted pro forina °r a wood reading. The order of the day for the discussion of the budget of 1849, was then takes. According to the project of the government, the expenditure amounts to 1,700 militate.

NAPLES —We here received letters from our eorrespoadent to the Ito instant inclusive. He says all is quiet, sad peop ' c are spearently rejoicing at the prospect of the is ttlement of the Sicilian ques tion. The English government has gained great ho nour by the firmness and perseverance with which it has supported a generous nation, and people are seedy to swear by Lord Palmerston. A great number amen; have been made on suspicion of treason. The ministry still rennin in, nee does there appear to be any rensput of their retiring willingly. Should they remain to power, a diesel:din of the chamber will be inevitable. A deputation of twenty members has been chosen to present the address, and the result is looked forward to with much interest. The government is negociating a loan of seven mil lions of ducats, which skill probably be taken by the house of Bono. The funds are continued at their present rates by artificial means, since they have for some time had an upward tendency, and there is every expectation of a considerable rise on the com pletion of the negotiations for the loan. This despatch contains no mention of the result of the ultimatum presented by the admirals at Palermo. The Fives, an the 7th inst., were 811. Exchenge on beam, en the 6th. 565; on the 7th, 683. SARDINIA.—The Tien Glaaette of the 12th inst. states from Turin (7th inst.), that the Ministers of France of England are said to have declared to the Turin esbinet, that if hostilities were recommenced with Austria they would demand their passports. It was atm said that the British Maunder had pre sented an ultimatum, offrring Sardinia the Duchies of Parma, Piacenza. and Modena; the Dale of Leach tenberg to have Lombardy, and Venice to be provi sionallyindependent. Should Charles Albert refuse these condition, England would retire from the mediation. ROMAN STATES.—In consequence of the late ministerial crisis at Rome, a new cabinet is composed es follows: Finance, Maszoni ; Interior, Saffi ; Fc reign Affairs. Ruseeni ; Grace and Julie*, Lazzarini ; Public Weeks, Montecchi ; Public Instruction, Star binetti ; War, Rilliet Constant. M. Calandrelli ad interim till the arrival of M. Rilliet Constant. GERMANY. AUSTRIA.—In addition to the news which we have already published concerning the battles of Kapolna and Szolnok, the Brealauer Abend-blattgives the following direct intelligence from Hungary : In the first encounter at Szolnok, the Grammont brigade, of 6,000 strong, was completely surrounded by the Magyars, and pert cut down, and part taken prisoners. Granumont we' amongst the taken. The general of the cavalry, Ott nger, died of his wounds at Path, on the bth inst. In another engage ment, on the 3rd of Ma..cb, the General Zeisiorrg was taken prisoner, with his whole diviidon. In this affair the Austrians lost 60 pieces of artilery and 9,000 nun (Me). The Magyars tad pained the Danube at Tina, and threatened the main corps in the rear. Hence the precipitate retreat to Perth. It was in contemplation to make an obstinate defence at Oho, where Windiscbgrats had established his head quarters, and to abandon Peath. Rceskemet, the second town of the Perth district, was in the hands of the Hungarians, and Geargey was approaching Real with a strong corps. Further direct news from Hun gary, in the mute paper, gives se the name of the place where the Austrians wire beaten on the 3rd inst. by Dembinski, Mesdlobseed. The retreat of the Austrians was little less than light. • They were evertelusa in the night again at Oergied, where they snetiiiiid each losses. Jellschke, oonsequnes, HR PM& • late .at night.

Prussia will not have to decline making the necessary sacrifices to this end, her own strength being ever a imagery condition of the strength of Ger many. We hope that the way of the un derstanding of all the German governments with the German National Assembly will lead to the withed for gaol.

Next comes a paragraph referring to the Danish notification of the termination of the armis tice, hoping that pear* may not be thereby broken; but, if it shoald be, offering the strongest support of the government for the maintenance of the honour of Prussia. The report prevails here to-day that the ne gotia does for peace in London have arrived at that point that an ultimatum had been sent in from Denmark.

Mr. W. BROWN reviled, to permit passengers by railway to insure their live', and to grant them compensation in case of injury or accident. But, in order to obviate the difficulty of paying Wimp duties in each case, the resolution propose d to empower the company to pay five per cent. on the whole =oust bleared, upon an understanding come to between the Stamp-office and the company, in Ilea of the stamp duty which would otherwise be payable in each particular ease.

WILLOUGHBY begged to ask the First Lord of the Admiralty whether six steam vessels—the Myrmidon, the Torch, the Zephyr, the Otter, the Adder, and the Dotterel—had been sold ; and, if sold, for what sum, and to whom, and U such sale had been by private contract or public auction ? Sir F. BARING said the transaction was this. A party had proposed to enter into a certain contract with reference to steam communication, provided he could purchase a num ber of the Admiralty steam-vessels. Four of sash vessels were at the time unemployed, in consequent* of the new arrangement , entered into for conveying the mails between England and Ireland via Holyhead. Two others were like wise r.ndered unnrcessary on another part of the coast ; and the Admiralty had offered to part with the whole six to him under the circumstances. He accepted the contract; but matters had sines transpired which brought it to an end. The vessels were therefore unsold ; and he (Sir F. Baring) had no objection to furnish all the papers on the subject of the negotiation (Haar.) THE DISCREDITABLE SCENE AT THE CLIFTON RAILWAY STATION.

Mr. URQUHART asked whether her Majesty's govern ment were prepared with a measure respecting borials in large towns, aced, U so, when it would be brought forward ? Lord J.

BAINES said that the question of settlement bad been fully discussed by the committee that sat upon it soma time ago. Hi. rredeceeror had, moreover, it stitured an in quiry of a cry comprehensive nature in different districts, .7 for Ile purpose of ascertaining the way in which the law-ot• settlement operated, and also of ming what remedy might best be supplied for the evils wasested with it. But the re sults were not yet known in se me cases, and in others net yet prepared ; and, considering their complexity, end that no measure oa the subject ought to be prepared without Sall consideration, be thought that no 'Measure on the pc mewl law of settlement would be introduced this . sessice. The question, however, was receiving the deepest attention is the department he represented. Neither was it intended to legislate with respect to parochial metes, which had a close connexion with the question of settlement, farther than this—he would move for leave to"rs introduce the measure which was passed lest session Mr are year—the Union Charges Bill, with such alterations as the expiates°e of its working suggested. With respect to va• g ,he was happy to say that the measure passed last year bad already bad the effect of greatly ditninishirg va grancy throughout the country. Alleough there were edit many complaints, he believed that the evil was materially abated. The commissioners were not of opinion that there should be any material alteration made in the law, and still leis that they should interfere with the principle of subject ing prokesional mendicants to punishment, while they we- • served the right of relief t 6 the real mendicant. In those districts, the count] of Essex for Instance, where there was a good rural police vigorously executing their powers and zeal ously endeavouring to discriminate between cues of genuine • acid fictitious destitution—in those places the evil had been greatly reduced, and the number of vagrants diminished. • The bon. gentleman (in reply to another question) said that he would introduce the bill he referred to won attet Easter.

It was here resolved that the boon, at its riming, adjourn to Monday. SUPFLY.—ANNUAL BUDGET. On the question that the Speaker leave the chair, for going into a Committee of Supply, - - - - Mr. HUME said that as the new rules of the house pre eluded him from bringing forward the two motions whicit stood on the paper, he should abandon for the present that which called upon the hones to adopt means to prevent the repeated explosions from fire damp in coal mines, and bring it forward on an early occasion, as be considered It of groat importance. The other motio n he would now proceed with. It was, " that in the present state of the finances of the country, her Majesty's ministers, before calling on this home to vote the estimates for the public service, should submit a general financial statement of the whole or ex pected revenues, and the total intended expenditure for the mains fiaansial yeses." He had hoped that her Majesty's minima would not have rendered such a motion neon way, but would have, in aaeordaree with much previous , and more particularly at amontent like the present, prase e have s ide their annual financial statement. Being relue tent to do so, he thought it was the duty of the house to en force it. Utilises was anything unusual or unconstitutional in such a mune, he would not press it on the house. Bat at had been adopted by different administrations, and he was the more inslined to demand it now, when he recollected that last year they had three, if net four, financial statements before they obtained any general statement of the expected income and expenditure of the country. It was easy for mi nisters to calculate within half a million what they expected the revenue to be, end they ought at least to have made up theirminds as to the expenditure. Thee received the accounts for the several departments in December, and ought to be in a position to do to. Considering that they had been for some years wasting the capAsal of the country, and that at the end of last sem on they were under the necessity of borrowing 2,000,004 it did appear to him that the first act of the government Wore they asked the house to vote one shilling for the axe radium of the country, , ought to have been to have stated of at the revenue was to Is, which they had had ample ti me! s eeeertain, and what the expenettuln, in order that that h suss might be in a post. ! don to decide whether it might not be advisable to effect a reduction of the public burdens. If ministers were unwilling to make that statement, he must only conclude either that they had not yet seed* up their minds what the expenditure was to be, or were afraid to set before the public the amount. If hon. members would on'y consider that their duty in that house towards the public was to act as treat's'e for the public funds, an the same way that they would act, sf they were prudent men, for themselves, he was sure they would admit the justice of hie motion, The question was no party one, and he addressed himself alike to whip. tortes, and radicals, when he called upon them, as honest and discreet trustees, to act towards the public in the supervision of expenditure, as they would in affairs of their own. He might be told that what he de manded was unusual. If it had never taken place before, he should say that such had been the waste and extravagance, and so heavy the burden of taxation, that the present was the moment when they ought to adopt such a course. It was never too late to do well; but they had numerous pre cedents for it. The first act of the whig government, on acceding to office in 1830. was to introduce a budget. On the llth of February Lord Althorp said ho considered it his duty to the house te lay before them not only the which the government Intended making. It might be objected that the estimates were not all on the table of the house. Bat Lord Althorp said on that occasion, that although the whole estimates were not on the table, he was anxious to state what reductions her Majesty's government bed made, and what they intended to do. He wished the pre sent government would follow that example. Lord Althorp then stated the amount of taxes at 60,000,0001. Last year it was upwards 0f09,000,0004, showing an increase of taxation of nearly 10,000,0001., although the noble lord at the head of the government declared in 1830 that retrench ment, non-interference with foreign states, economy, and re form were to be the grounds and principles upon which the government was to act. That declaration, which was repeated in the other house by Lord Grey, gave great satisfaction to the country at the time. It was setts' on by Lord Althorp, but abandoned by succeeding administrations until now, when, lensed of enjoying that relief from taxation which a tints of plea ought to give, we were burdened with 10,000,0001. additional. Now, Lord Althorp made his state ment on the 11th of February, sad did not move his esti mates until the 18th, when the house had before them a fall statement of the expected revenue and expenditure of the ensatry, and were therefore in a much better position to enesbler those estimates. 'That precedent alone justified his praent motion. But he was fortified with others. In 1841 the budget was brought forward on the 14th of Feb.ruary the first estimate voted was on the let of March. In 1846 the budget was introduced on the 29th of May, and no estimate taken till the 24th July. In 1847, the budget was on the 22nd February, the first estimate on the let of lord Mar!h in ; s aa m d c. l t st a y bo ear ra , w on spee the e rth intr o o f d farnex his y n , ew the r-to- no be- ble firrgotten budget, but did not ask for a vote of money until the 20th. ed A storm then &MS and led to results which vof what Knee/able materials go ern e m were made. , Whig or tory, it was all alike ; and he called upon every , member who was anxious to relieve the country from its heavy burdens to aid him in putting the strew upon the present government with that object It was complained by some hon. gentlemen that he and his hon. friend the member for the West Riding of Yorkshire were proposing to take off taxes without providing the means. Now the noble lord, in his budget of last year, gave them tho following esti mate: Fended Debt 427,778,000 Usfunded do.. 752,000 CHASO,IIOO Oessolldated fend charges Nadir war 51,100,000 Navel mow last year 245,000 d 1,345,000 Navy d 7,728,610 Army Ordnance Klmellanerna 01,820,444 £54,446,,000044 150 Militia Total £54,596,044 In 18 years from the time Lord Althorp introduced his , motion, what had we arrived at ? With the Reform Bill he bad hoped to obtain a proper check on expenditure ; he would never have slaked for reform of that house, but that there might be a stricter and more careful consideration of the interests of the community et lerge, in respect, first, to that which immediately touched every man, the finances of the country, and then in respect to those other matters on which the p:ospenty and happiness of the country depended. He regretted not the efforts he had made to obtain reform. (Hear ) By the Reform Bill power had been wrested from the boroughmongers and given to the crown ; for neither king nor queen could then rule this country but through the oligarchy, who then had power. That power had - been placed is the hands of the middle-clam electors • and if they had neglected their duty, he was glad they were made to smart for it. (Hear ' heir.) He wished he could throw the whole w ht of the taxation on those corrupt men who had • the trust *mewl in them, and had suffered the country to labour under a taxation of 69 millions darling. Mang to this the 12 millions of which the hon. member for Backs complained. with other items, it need not be matter of surprise that this country was in dilienities with such an enormous amount taken from its industry. The time mas come tbr the public to open their eye; already there was a glimmering of fight from Liverpoel t which he hoped would rapidly spread end enlighten all the borougbe and counties in the kingdom.
