TOE LIVel Question absorbs in Ireland all men's thought& Hereditary feuds and roc rot squabbles are alike krgetten is t common feeling and uciversal of the hour. Sees that have long been at variant e, and parties that bare long looked upon each other asenemit it, mit cl.eeriully in tne same multi tudinous vremblages and learn to act cordially togetter in the same Tenant League. What does this ringalu fusion of popular hopes and efforts mean ? le it a casual and evanescent combination, like the many-eolcured mass that suddenly overspreads the bcavens,and as inexplicably disappears before the breath of some unbidden breeze ? Or is it the tardy accumulation of hitherto neglected element& which separate and apart were powerh M. but which drift in: tt gather impart to another a force for good or evil which in.. in reit) affect to disregard ? The present movement of the tenant classes in Ire land is the natural and noses try consequence of pro- tracted neglect on the F art of a government composed exclusfeely of the class whore oppressions and exac tions they are no longer able to endure. A landlord legislator* have for yews been importuned in vain, to set;:y specific remedies to specific wrenga; but a lac illord legislature laughed at these provincial griev ance?. and cheered its coxcomb favourites in their flippant mockery of low bred and unthrorising dis content. Cabinet after cabinet has pretended, in the plaits:hie period of its formation, that the subjects in question should engage its earliest attention ; but gess:on after maim has been suffered to roll by without one serious proposition Doing made on the put of the executive for the establishment of social security and peace. The let? Sir ROBERT PAIL, well 'tette present prim) minister, are believed to have sincerely meditated some attempt of the kind. The former used to talk sith grave anxiety of a cloud in the western sky, whom gathering and MMUS he would have fain averted ; and before the spectral shades of famine had disturbed the rest of his noble competitor for power, the urgency of the Irish lemmata prayer 'or justice and for mercy haunted Lord Joni ItrsseLes " dreams." But the epirit of ooth submitted to the bondage of a a )rdid oligarchy ; and the tantalised occupiers of the soil were le!t helplees and dernceless u before. Meanwhile other changes tended materially to aggravate the evils of their condition. The artificial lever of prices for agricultural produce was suddenly lowered, while reek-rents captioned to be exacted; and the ordinary food of the people radii g during thee. succruire years, a large portion of the produce grown for rent was necessarily consumed or ex char ged for the means of subostence. 'Multitudes of honest and industrious tenants fell deeply into arrear. tipriadthri.t and grasping landlordism refused to r.b.te its demands. Prayers and remonstrances as - Ailed nothing. The exigency of the case was ✓and at stupidly by the rulers of the land ; and the inhuman strugg.e was suffered to proceed. Still worse, the cold-blooded instigation was openly givrn by certain p sada economists to seize the golcen opportunity for clearing the land of its superfluous inha"itantr. The poor, in the estimation of such railcsopherr, are always superfluous even when they we not of the onfavoured race or creed ; bat when these motives for aversion are combined, as is the case of the small landholders in Ireland, with a poverty the result of legalised wrong,—the zest for extermination bee aces intense, and its appetite masa *bk. The crusade Las now been carried on fur seve ral year,. Unnon.berid houses a humble men have beau unroofed, and countless forms of infancy and age have perished of hunger, cold, and disease. The ehronic.es of Clearance new - it will be written, in the fellness of accusing truth. But enough and more than ezena.h has found its way to English eyes and sera, to startle and to shock every Christian hesrt amocimt as. Nevertheless, parliament and the extern Cr, hare toed by unmoved while this havoc has bees made under the desecrated forms of law upon au ezhansted end defenceless peasantry. The occupiers of the eastern and northern districts • of the country, though lees pinched by absolute want, Anted in the general danger. Tney bad for genera tiou waged a more indomitable struggle against rack-rent and eviction; and they had devised a system of their own whereby a considerable mitigation of the mischief was prictically attainable and at tained. To this truce between the belligerents the name of " tenant right " was given. Its pro visions varied ecoording to eircometances. Like those of the common law, they were seldom to be found in writing. Bat their sanction was in the wise deter minaaon of the many in naught to exceed or forego them; and in the equally wise fear of the few which forbade their ictrioging them. Bat the landlords of Ulster proved themselves ea eager as those of Con naught to take advantage, if possible, of free trade and the famine, in order to get rid of the tenant's risht :olive secure. Abatements in the old rents were rarely made, and then to a very inadequate amount. Arrests accumulated, or were paid off out of capital, or money burrowed, in the hope that times might mend. When the coeup:ers complained, they were told to p-titios parliament for a restoration of pso tecting duties ea eorn : in other words, they were recommended to ask leave to rob the artisans of England, in order that tl sir landlords might have leave to soh tl ern as of old. To the credit of the tartars of Ireland be it said, that they gave no sp.cies of encouragement to this uopr:ccipled plan; and the tree traders of this country are therefore in a peculiar degree bound to see justice done to them by an un willing end unheeding legislature. And now at length the patience of both north and south is utterly exhausted ; end forgetful of past en mities, the prtsbnterian and the catholic take counsel together and resolve to put wide all other work until security foe the frui's of their industry be attained, ea& until some cheek is pat upon the ruthless power of capricious, indiscriminate, and irresponsible evict 1.. n. To acwanplish these objects many expedients have been proposed ; some which are impracticable in their nature, and some which it were absurd to expect a landlord legisla ture to concede. Pot the means unquesionably may be found (and the sooner they are diligently Nought for the better for all concerned), whereby the rights of property in the soil, and the rights of ia dustry to its sppr w thle improvements, may be ac commodated sad insured. A landlord who suffered his tenant to enter upon his farm by purchasing the goodwill of it from the previous occupant, and who won the faith and understanding that he might sell the goodwill is like manner when leaving, has re ceived from his tenant war-rent in time of peace,— such a landlord is neither justified in equity or honesty in rattail g such a tenant permission to sell the tenant-right if he can find • solvent tenant to take his place, or in ejecting him without re-imbursement, in order to deprive him of that wherein be invested so much of his capital. Equally palpable is the wrong done when a tenant who has increased by his own labour and the expenditure of his own money the letting value of the farm- -is ejected without compen sation. Ka. thwe glarie;, and in Ireland prevalent abuses, it is the imrrative duty of parliament to provide remedies • and it is mere twaddle to pretend er that .:re there tie will, there would be any great difficulty in finding the way. These are among Vie principal objects of the newly form d Tenant Le..gue ; and it will doubt less form one of its chief occupations to urge their consideration upon the legislature as soon as it re timetable a. Them are other of:diets which the association has nod. oaken to prt.mote ' not less important indeed, bet the %t i malt et whic h must depend not cm the will of parliam,nt but on that of the people themselves. THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, AUGUST 24, 1850. 1 Mr. Turtesu. alludes to under the designation of • "destitute young women' term d penniless on the • world." You cannot make good servants out of the o greater proportion of this r timorous class it is well ; but, says Mr. Tuenall, you can maki school mistrusts of them. How is it, then, they do not at • ones embrace the profession P Surely because the home and glory of belonging to a profession for which it is difficult to find a disqualification are worth teething at all. But what are we to say to the writer's description . of the situation of teacher, es "useful and honour - o able," uppoing, as we believe we may, that he-eta • ploys these epithets to elevate the poet in the eyes of possible as pirants Useful it may be, and often is, in the highest degree, we allow ; but bow is this utility ; estiiimted? 1)o the parents whose children attend • the pauper or even the national schools recognise this utility P In the union taco's, to which the writer more especially alludes, these parents are generally the most degraded portion of the community of the neighbourhood. Many of them have not had the o energy to exercise industry enough to give their children food to support their physical 'entree—what can they care about mental training P Do the children themselves a:knowledge the utility P They are generally the most hopeless of all classes of pupils. Born in the midst of abject poverty, they have never ' been subject to any discipline, moral or intellectual. Their senses of decency and honesty have been dead seed by their dwelokg amidst moues which reveal constant breaches of these virtues, aid instruction falls heavily upon ears which have had no previous preparation for its lemons. But the schoolmistress's occupation is honourable. Again, wo say, who recogniecs it? Is she in general regarded as fit company for the matron P 1)e the small or large farmers er shopkeepers in the parishes of the union Invite her to their houses? Do the guardians of the poor, who should be the first to re cognise the value and honour of the post this female fenetionary occupies, delight to heap tokens of favour upon her head ? Is she not rather considered se the most insignificant of all those employed in the task of administering to the wants of the pauper popula tion ? Is there any class of society which does not consider itself too good for the pauper schoolmistress? To what purpose, then, is it to hold it out as an inducement to the great class of unemployed young women that the occupation of a schoolmistress is use ful and honourable, whoa the utility and honour are to be visible only to herself P 'Hume self-devoted beings, few and far between, who are contest with the reward of an approving conscience for a life of self-immolation like that of a union schoolmistress, do not need to be tempted by fine word., and the majo rity will not be influenced by them, but will require something more substantial. And this brings us to our lut observat;on. Mr. Turer.u. speaks of the labours of the schoolmistress as being neither hard nor disagreeable, and the salary as being competent. In opposition to this we are boned to assert that the salary is generally insufficieht, and that the labour is beyond measure intense. The fact with respect to the salary may be verified by any one who reads the advertisements so frtqcently in serted by guardians of unions. The question of the amount of labour can aoly be spoken to by those who like ourselves have seen the system in full operation. The union schoolmistress has scarcely any of the alleviations of her toil which are granted to other female teachers. Her labours begin early in the morning; her pupils do not leave her to return to their homes; she has to watch them at play-hours, assisted only by girls who have no sympathy wish her, and who are only in the house because they ere too idle or too vicious to exist elsewhere. She has no one to share responsibility with her,—all the setts! duty of tuition falls on her alone. Those who know anything of the ordinary labours of tuition may imagine how fearfully these are increased, in the cue of the union schoolmistress, by the ignorance and in- tractability of the pupils, by the impoesibiiity of pay ing attention to such large numbers as crowd the I union schools. The teacher here has body and mind overworked, with the sad reflection that she receives' I no thanks for her toils. The greater number of the union schoolmistresses whom we have questioned have i I acknowledged that the amount and the unthankful nature of the labour required of them has had the most unfavourable effect on tht.ir health. It is 10MJ• thing worse than mockcry, af er such a consumma tion, to be told that their salary is competent and their occupation " useful and honourable." The incident of the ball at Besancon bee given rise to the met animated dissuasions at the Assembly, where all the representatives permit in Parts met yeeterday, as well as at the Beanie. The affair was coteesivtd of suilisient importance to become the ob ject of a ministerial council ;and was taken up in the Committee of Permanence, which, however, could only . gather seven membe rs out of the 39 at the Legislative Palace. No telegraphic despatch has been rtceived from Strasbourg to-day. On the 20th the Duke of Bordeaux gave a dinner ors hundred covers at Wiesbaden, to which the sixty workmen arrived from Paris by the train-de-plaistr were invited. Same of the latter party brought their wirer, among whom one dressed up in a Vendean costume attracted much attention. The following resolutions have been come teat Wiesbaden by the Count de Chambord and twenty eight legitimist deputies who were present. To abandon the policy of conciliation; to oppose the pro- longation of the powers of the President of the Re public; to consider M. Berryer as the directing chief of the party; and to blame and disavow the acrimony displayed by the Garcia de France. Twe ogdate of the secret polies have left Paris for Wiesbaden, where the Count de Chambord is now re siding. The charge.d'affairee of the Grand Duke of Nassau, on being informed of their miiision, at first refused them passports; but afterward' changed his determination, at the formal order of his government. A new, or rather old, pretender to the throre of France has reappeared in the field, apropos of a piece, called" Louis XVII," which is about to be played at the theatre of the Vaudev.lle. M. Paul Ernest is to play the part of the Orphan of the Temple', who died when 10 years of age. Ihe Compte di: Richmond, who, it seems, has not renounced his character of pretender, is about to bring an action against the director of the Vaudeville, for producing a piece in which be is made to die at the age of 10 years, whereas he is still alive, in perfect hi alth, and ready to assert his china to the crown of France. Excestive rent is a fearful evil is a country where commerce does not compete with agricaltere for the employment of capital and labour. How can it be abated? Manifestly 'not by act of parliament. No act that lawyer craft could trains would be worth a farthing u a manatee to exorbitant rent; fee no set amid be devised which a swarm of special cove nants would not easily and triumphantly break through. This le in truth so obvious that we oonli der.tly hope to see the tenant league applying their intimates, to the roes ample and effectual means by which this portion of their task may be accomplished. Let the people of the north and eolith only be mode to understand thoroughly that this portion of the re medy is in their own bands and rack rent is at an end. Combination in any spa:oleo form for such a purpose might be misoonstrood into an illegal act ; and everything bard.ring on illegality cannot be too saupulonsly avoided. But no bond or compact is needed where the want and the resolve is that of a whole people. To promise more rent than a man is able to pay is • lolly, a falsehood, and a fraud. Let every man once feel that this is so, and when will landlords get any more rack rents P Inn HorWng Herald, a journal enjojing the omit mime' confidences of the low church party, yesterday arnounced that the Crown bed nominated the Earl of CHICHESTER as the Brat commissioner of the Eeclesi- astical Commission under the set of last session; that the Archbishop of CANTIERBURY had nominated Mr. UOULBURN ; and that the third commissioner, also nominated by the Crown, is Mr. J. 0. Lucy= This announcement, it is very much to be hoped, is incorrect: for in such an arrangement there is much to repel public coufidecce. The Earl of Cm- CHESTER is a sincere, consc!entimui, painstaking, good man ; and Lord Junti RUSSELL has long been desirous of inducing him to take some such nos-poli tical office as that to which the anncuncement refers. Who at d what Mr. Gort.nonts is, every one knows. Suffice it to say that he enjoys scarcely the respect, certainly not the confidence of any party in the House of Commons. And Mr. J. 0. Leeevar is a gentle mu whose rare capacity to serve the public is at pre sent lcst to the country by his failure to procure a mat in parliament. Thus, although there is nothing to be said against the character of such men as Lord Cnicrtmeras and Mr. LIiPkVILE, they both want the prime requisite, that of representing the commission in the House of Commons. As to Mr. oouLutnts, his appointment is a mere defisnos of the beech of bishops to church retiree, and even to thievery commission, the appoint ment of whicii Mr. 61013LBURN opposed, whilst he stood up for every malversation, neglect, and blunder of the old commission, of which he was a prominent member. In his conduct and his arguments be was not merely obstinate but offensive to church reformers. That these men should now have to meet Mr. 00CL 3aul as the representative of the new commission in the House of Commons is painful and badly managed. Lord Qualm= would have made a good ordi nary commissioner; u such he would have opposed jobi, corrected misUaeagement, and prevented wute. Bat even if Lord Cnteitzsrea were endowed with higher administrative abilities than he is, his appoint ment as first and paid crown commissioner would be objectionable, and on two grounds. He is devotedly attached to one of the great parties into which the church is separated; and is, of c urea , an object of suspicion and of dislike to the other party. This, however, is a minor objection; the greater is, that Lord CHICHESTER is not in the House of Commons. It is not indispensable that the first crown cone- 1 missioner should bee member of the Lower House of parliament ; but it was never for one moment sup posed in discussing the bill that he would not ; and we are in a position to assert, without fear of contra dirion, that a grfat object of the bill as it was ac os;ded by the liberal party was that the paid commis. goner representing the public should be in the House of C. mmuns, there to be questioned and held respon sible for the proceedings of the board, as Mr. RAINES is fur the Poor-law Board. To substitute, then, in the House of Commons the paid church for the paid crown commissioner—and he Mr. GOULBURN of all men—is substantially to neutralist and to defeat that object, for the church commissioner therecan be under no emh responsibility as the crown commissioner ; he is appointed wanting the con fidence el the house, and be will be continued without enjoying it ; he will be looked on as the representative of episcopal interests only ; be regarded aa the bishops' month-piece ; be accepted as the paid advocate and defender of t c:leei erical jobs. Moreover, Mr. GOULBERN has by his conduct and ranscrupulneness, offended and disgusted all thole liberal members who take an active part in the discussion of eeclesiasticel affairs; they cannot, therefore, bold that ir.disperuble private and confi dential intercourse with him which is requisite, and, instead of ecclesiastical business being pleasantly con ducted, the bishups' paid agent in the house will be come the cbjoct art contempt and of annoyance. It is, moreover, diszreclitab;e to a man who has held the high offices Mr. GM:Li:URN has held, and who, though needy, has a pn-blic pension of 2,0001., to accept such a paid agency. It has not hitherto been the practice for statesmen in this country to descend in the scale of public employment; and for the ex-Chancellor of the Exchequer of such a l'recuier as Sir ROBERT PEEL to greedily grasp under any circumatanoss at 1,0001. a year as a paid commissioner of a minor administ r ative acrd, is to degrade the general character of public men; while to receive it as the reward of past ser vices dace the bishops in the House of Commons, and as the retaining fee of future advocacy, must utterly destroy every shred of reputation that Mr. GOVLBURN tad left Repainted by the protectionists, he is about to become a ripendiary of the bishops. The Ecclesiastical Commission needed no represen tative in the House of Lords; for there it is repre sented by the whole bench of bishops. And the bishups required no representative in the House of Commons ; for there it is the custom to transact busi ness only with functionaries responsible to the crown, and so amenable to its confidence. And the whole I prutiee and theory of our coostitation will be of fended if the paid public commissioner be not a mem ber of the House of Commons. Had Mr. J. G. LuEvrts been a member, he is by ability, by business habits, and by previous study and acquaintance with the affairs of the Commission, ex actly the person to have represented the Board io that house. Instead, he is appointed third and un paid commissioner ; and for the duties of that office, his avocations in the House of Lords will leave him no time during oae half the year; and during three months at least of the other half, it has not been the cu,tom of the Ecclesiastical Commission to meet. On these grounds alone, it is to be hoped oar low church contemporary has, in making this announce ment, been misinformed. Tug report of Mr. CARLETON TUFNELL On Paro chial Union Schools contains the following passage : There is often, in my opinion, much to complain of in the insufficiency of the intellectual education imparted to workhouse girls, and this defect in thi it training ban an en trinwely iujarious effect on their moral career. This evil mainly uses from the difficulty of obtaining women ads ' gamely qualified to give morel and religious instruction. The few normal insticutions that exist for the prep iration of female teachers cannot supply a tenth pert of the de. wand, and boards of guardians often advertise in vain for sp ' pliant' to fill vacant schoolmietremes' places. The labours ex isted from the occupants of such situations is not particu larly Lard or dissoreesble; a competent salary is offered besides board and lodging, the latter tingly consisting of a comfortably Tarnished private room. . . . Amongst the numerous widows, the destitute young women, members of families respottaley ',fought up, and suddenly turned penniless on the world, whose bard curs of poverty and star satino cane never ending appeals to the charitable, it mess astonishing that so few tea be found competent to till Use tient and honourable post of teachers. It is strange that it did not strike the clear-headed writer of the report from which this extract is taken that there can be nothing at all wonderful in the fact that a profession which holds its doors wide open to the influx of the thousands who belong to the classes he enumerates, should not appear in very attractive colours to those who may be hesitating before they enter. A profession which, as the writer himsilf tells us afterward., requires but little intellectual preparation, the standard of acquire ments being ridiculously low, which takes recruits from the humblest as well as from the unfortunate part of the middle class of society, whioh in fact is, acc9rding to the above quotation, • " refuge for the destitute,' is not likely to have its ranks filled by very eager volunteers. A first-rate needlewoman or • clever shopwoman, a good cook or housekeeper —nay, a thorough housemaid, have certain endowments that it is well known are act possessed by the numerous undistinguished female rabble whom FRANCE. PARIS, FRIDAY EVENING. The President's arrival at Strasbourg, on the after noon of the 21st, was announced by the ringing of bells and the firing of artillery. A tent, tastefully decorated, had been erected at the railway terminus, where the authoiities received him in all due form. He immediately mounted on horseback, and proceeded to the prefecture, surrounded by a numerous and brilliant staff. The streets tbrotigh which he passed were crowded to excess; every window was occupied by elegantly-dressed ladies. The national guard as sembled in great numbers, and received the Prea,ident with frequent cries of " Vice la Republique!" mixed with those of " Vice le President!" Altogether his le ception has exceeded the hopes of hie party, particn larly after the conduct of the municipal mined, who refused to vote a son towards defraying the expenses, and after the daily exhortstioas of the democratic jour nals to prevent the national guard from coming out. The President gave evident signs of emotion; probably the souvenir came across his memory of the last time he passed through the same streets as an exile, whereas now be pranced gaily lorward as chef de l'etat. Immediately alter his arrival at the pre fecture commenced the official visits. A member of the Chamber of Commerce, M. Erekmann (one of the persons that figured late:y in the republican process at Metz), took occasion, like M. Noieot, of Fixin, to call the attention of the President to the condition of thorn who had been condemned to imprisonment, thus mak ing an appeal to his clemency. The President replied, that " coos better than he knew the pain of being a prisoner, but that it was necessary that order should be re-established before he could think of recommend ing their being set at liberty." In the evening there wu a grand dinner of 60 covers at the prefecture. A display of fireworks took plaoe opposite the windows of the prefecture, on the ramparts. The tswn is crowded with strangers; amongst the visitors is the Grand Duchess Stephanie of Baden and suite. The Grand Duke of Baden, I am just informed, has sent a special envoy to greet the President. I have learned to-day some important particulars, which it is necessary to add to the account of the Preeident's journey from Besangen to Strasbourg. At Thane, near Muhlhausen, there was a very strong socialist demonstration. 6,000 workmen assembled to join in this. Among other cries was heard " Vivi le suffrage universe !" " Vies Cavaignac !" The other part of the population were cold, silent, and indifferent. The corps of pompiers and the artillery of the national guard were remarkably vehement in their clamorous protests against the policy of the President's government. The review in the spacious meadows outside Mal hausen wu accompanied by similar democratic mani festations. At Colmar, the lieutenant-colonel, the major, and the greater part of the officers of the national guard resigned, in order to mark their dis approbation of the President's policy. Along the roads throughout Mardis, bands were organised to give the President a charieari as he passed. The greater part of these were youths armed with whistles. The moderates attribute these con certs to the presence of M. Flacon, member of the provisional government, at Colmar, who gate the mot d'ordre to the socialists of the department. At Malhansen, • brawny fellow, armed with a cudgel, was arrested on the charge of deterring the well die posed from crying " Vivo le President !" A no th er democratic bully, of the same typo, was imprisoned at Colmar. The reception at Schlestadt was more satisfactory. Ths weather was highly favourable to the entrance of the President at Strasbourg. The Posivoir has seen a letter dated from Paris, the 13th inst., bearing the postmark of lhle, the 15th, addressed to Lyons, to the President of the Repub lic, and conjuring him not to stop at Besangen, where a conspiracy had been organized against his life. The Monileur du Soir 1111D01111Cei in ll corres pondence from Strasbourg, dated on the 20th, the detection of a plot against the President's life. The chief conspirators cams from Ninety.

His statement is to the facts precoiling the murder is t the effect that he had teen many w,eke cut of cm! loymens, but had gut a situation in which he heel been one week, and earned lUe. 6il. ; that he received that amount, and an addi tensel shitting, which h., bor rowed tr•era his employer; that he gave 9s. to his wife to lay out in provisions for the family, and kept 2s. GI., with which he proposed buying leather to repair the children's shoes. The wife, he states, went out on the morning of the day the murder was committed to lay oat the money, and some time in the afternoon Mrs Dees, who, it will be remembered, was en import►nt witness on the trial, came to his house, and said a person wonted tim at a public house in the neighbourhood. He at first refused to go, but ultimately did go, and there he found his wiw and • Mrs. Wheatley drinking together, Dees being also one of the party; that the money which he had worked for, and intended tor his family, was thus communed, and that he himself partook ol liquor (rum) to such an extent as to d,- pries him of sli kr, °wieder, of what took One after he got home tilt he awoke about I o'ecek in the morning, and bound his wire dead, when he awoke his eon, and gave an alum. There it, of course, not the least ground for emitting the truth of the latter port of the statement. As illustrating his character, it may be stated that a day or two ago be confessed to a brutal act committed against his daughter. She had been, he soil, at a dance at a rublic.house, where hs had gone to seek her at a late hour, and found her in disreputable company ; he seized her by the neck and shoulders and dragged her home, and on getting her into the house he threw her down upon the ft tor and jumped cn her, with the intention of breaking her legs. She was so much injured by his violence as to be laid up in the in firmary for several weeks, She now walks with • halt in con sequence of thew injuries. The circumstances were con cealed at the time, but t►e man who could so act, and in the presence of death describe his conduct and admit his inten ti en, seems not unfitted to perpetrate the more heinous crime of murder: There is no sympathy expressed for the man in Newcarle, where he has for some yeats led a most profligate life. _ EiECUTION AT NiONMOUTII.—Yt sterday morning Patrick Sullivan and Maurice hlurp`ov, sgcd respective'y 21 and 22, who were found guilty at the lest ass.z,s of the murder of an aged female piup. r on the high road near Newport, were executed in front of the county gaol. They were attended to the scaffold by the t rit at of the Raman Catholic Chapel. and their sentence was carried into teem. tion by Calcraft, who was brought down for the purpose. After hanging the usual time thcir bodies were to be cut down and interred within the gaal grounds. At the moment of preparing to post off this despatch, the crowds of peopht who witnessed the execution are rushing p fist, laughing and shouting, many already intoxicated, and all appearitg as at they hid rather Nen at a feast than an execution. The respectable inhabitants of the town have kept within their houses ; and they fear much for the consequences which will result from the vast crowd. of vagabonds and tramping fellows which the execution has call,: together. The loud bawling of the fellows with " dying speeches and confessions," already strikes the ear; indee t before we left the spot there were several unrolling tittle large quires of confessions and dying speeches for sale to the credulous public. The culprit Murphy eonleased yesterday that he was the man who struck the it victim with a stone, and that they then carried her, or led her, into the wood, where Sullivan finished the brutal work. They had a filled her, he said, because, being in a famishing state, from eating nothing for four or five days but grass and vegetables stolen from the fields, they believed eh* had victuals in her basket; and they did not intend to kill her, but only to stun her sufficiently to effect the robbery without detection. _ _ THE CONVICT HANNAH CURTIS. --- RESPITE.- OLOVCESTEIt, VIM/AV.—The execution of Hannah 113 W in Gloucester County Prison under sentence of death tor the murder of her husband, at Frumpton Omarll, by piens, was tiled for to morrow, an +! t. all t h e awful peepers tions had been made. At a late hJur last night, however, • Quesn'amessenger arrived poc-huts from Scotland, where Sir George Grey 1. at present tojourning, with a letter e n umbing a respite of the execution until her Majesty's plea sure shall be known. The messenger only started from Lon don on Tuesday last, and had travelled night and day in order to arrive in time. A consultation was immediately held betwe,o the governor of the gaol, Capt. Mason, and the d chap! iin, the Um Mr. Herschel!, when it was arranged that In c insequence of the lateness of the hour it would not he advi.able to disturb the convict, and the au- nnuncement of the respite was acoordingly made to the prisoner this day by the chaplain, in th• presence of the governor. The rev. chaplain introduced the subject in a few tiqing remarks, during which she was greatly agitated, and on the final t.nnouncement being made she swooned amy in the c. 11. Her behaviour has been since hir con demnation anything but what might be expected from a creature whom boars and minutes were numbered. She &clues her innocence, and although she joins in la ligi devotion with the eltspi sin, she dors not appear fully aware of her awful situation. Her pers. nt husband, Curtis, has had frequent intercourse with her, and she enters freely Into conversation with him, giving Instructions as to household matters with the air of a parson about to Mara shortly to her how. M. Uhavoix, the member of the Mountain who has shot in a duel, at Perigoeux, M. Dupont, formerly a member of the Constituent Assembly. and editor of a moderate piper, entitled the Echo de Yvonne, has been arrested and imprisoned. His red constituents made an attempt to rescue him, but were repulsed. The Muniterm contains a decree appointing M. Rouber to discharge the functions of minister of finance ad interim during the absence of M. Fould. Sixty Belgian workmen were sent out of Paris yesterday by M. Carlier, escorted by gendarmes, to gain the 11. lgian frontier. There is no country where Frenchmen enjoy so much liberty as in Belgium. You are already aware that the extreme Left of the Assembly has split up into two fractions, which are entitled the " Parlementaires" and the " Revo lutionairts." The parlementaires have corstitnted themselves anew in the following manner: President, M. Jolly; vice-preeidents, M.M. Mathieu (de la ))rime) and Schcelcher ; secretaries, MM. Testelin, Bertholon, and Cassel. The parlementaires have also apvinted a permanent commission to watch the pro ceedings of the Elysee and the ministers of M. Louis Bonaparte. This commission is composed of twelve members, viz., MM. Savoye. Auguste, Mw, Breyman, Ennt ry, Gerard, Charms, Gillaud, Henri quip, Del becque, Emile Peen, and Esquiros. Five members are charged with drawing up the reports, viz., MM. Eugene Sae, Edgar Quinet, Charms, Bac, and Hennegnin. M. Damsel, the moderat• candidate, has been re turned by a majority of W;:3 to 335 to the morel'. general of the Dordogne, for the canton of St. Pierre de Cnignac. The Nepaulese ambassador and his suite of twelve persons, accompanied by Captain Fanshaw, their in terpreter, yesterday visited the galleries and museum of the Louvre. What appeared to please them most was the gallery containing Ceinese designs arid utensils. They asked ninny questions. Their gor geous elate-nes, pearl., and diamonds produced a pic ture, que *fleet in the galleries. M. ee Nieuwerkerke, tie director of the Louvre; M. de Vie lcastel, t: - e secre tary; and other officer., accompanied them. The artists who were at work in the galleries suspended their lahmrs to take a glance at the visitors. On leaving, the ambassador and his suite heartily thanked the cfficiiels and artists for.tbeir flattering reee,,tion. In the Hotel Sire', they lodge in apartments entirely separated from the rest of the hotel. They communi cate with no one, and keep their curtains constantly closed. As their religion requires them to kill their own meat, the prefect of police, on the rtq-est of the English embassy, has contented to allow animals to be slaughtered in the hotel. M. Altaroche has been nominated, by the Minister of the litter.or, director of the Odeon Theatre, in place of M. Bocsge. The metallic reserve of the Bank of Fran:m has in armed about 3 millions in Paris and nearly 1 million in the departments. The cU.,,,.unt acc,mrnodation Las augmented in Paris about 2 millions, and declined in the prowite , s 1 # millio^s ; the amount of the former being 49,751,471 fr., and of the latter 74,662,443 fr. The protested bills in Paris are gradually appr..aehing zero, as the amount this week is only 114,07 dr., being a decline of about 30,000 fr.; in the provinces there has a'so bees a diminution of 200,009 fr., the present amount bring 1,161,410 fr. On the bide of the liabili ties, the amount of notes in circulation has reclined in Paris 1i million.. whilst it remains almost the same in the branch-banks; the amount of the former being 423,329,6001 r., and of the later, 72,363,500 fr. The account current of the treasury has increased 5 mil lions, the amount now being 65,543,060 fr. Private accounts-current in Paris have declined 3 millions, whilst those in the provinces remain almost unaltered, the amount of the former being 64,256,667 fr., and of the latter, 23,814,8:59(r. The whole amount of the metallic reserve is at present 432 millions to 503 mil lions of notes in circulation. Scarcely any business at all was done at the Bourse. The bears sought to propagate rumours of an unfa vourable kind about the President's tour ; which were, however, ineffectual in producing a fall.

GERMANY. AUSTRIA. VIENNA, AUGUST 17. Yesterday, after a grand entertainment at Schen bentin,to which ill the,minietera and the principal tum tory authorities now present in Vienne were invited, the Emperor set oat on his journey to !Gehl, with the intention afterwards to proceed to Inspreek. No mem .her of the Cabinet acoompluits his Majesty. His Indispensable favourite, Adjutant-General Count Groans, has the honour to be the Emperor's only com panion. It is nearly certain that his Msjesty pro ceeding to the extreme western limit of his empire, wiil visit Vorarlberg, in order to inspect the army °Grps stationed therm The object a this journey is to make a demonstration against Pruuis, and it is probable that, with the same view, Austrian troops will be marched into the Grand Duchy of Baden snoold the Baden :battalions leave for I'r•ssian garrisons. Notwithstanding the thousand reports circulated about this demonstration and that note, it is not in listed here that either the Baden or Vienna cabinet will dare to plunge the country into what must be • civil war, although it cannot be denied that the im mense military display which is made here betrays the existence of the old Austrian lust of war. The semi-official organ of Count Grunne, the &Malan from!, has lately called loudly for war with l'rosnie, and condemns the too pacific disposition of the minis try in the most decided terms. This manifestation, coaling as it does from the highest actual authority in the army, is only one of many proofs which the floidatesita give of their hatred to all semblance of • constitution, and the hearty good will with which they would draw their sabres to Low through all civil opposers as may wince at the ancient despotism.

It has lately been several times hioted, and more than once announced as a fact, that the government was about to summon a meeting of the chambers, a proceeding which is by many persons thought ex ceedingly desirable. We learn that the government— notwithstanding the large accumulation of legis lative material, and the urgency of many projicts to be discussed—cannot resoled to call the par liament together before the period prescribed by the constitution. The ministry sees in the present state of our foreign relations not a motive for taking ench a step, bat rather the opposite. It is hoped that by the time that the chambers meet in due course, ex ternal affairs will have assumed t more definite shape, so that then embers will merely have to saknowledge results already decided.
