The CHAIRMAN', after some observations on the subi,ct of the papers, called upon Mr. Jukes to offer some remarks. noted. The priesthood seems to have frankly adhered to the popular cause. The peasants, we learn, went in masses to vote for annexation headed by their priests. We congratulate the Italian clergy on this trrdy wisdom. They have learnt, it seems, that no body of men, however well organised, however sub tle and energetic, can long control the impulses of a resolute people; and when the folly of resistance is demonstrated the only step is to resign them selves, and endortvour to lead the movement they cannot stem. This acceptance of Italian nationality by the clergy wiU, we trust, satisfy even Irish Ultramontanes of the uselessness or any further agitation. In no country has tne Catholic laity been so besotted as to refuse their sympathies to the Italian people in this long struggle for freedom, and we may hope that the counsels of the Catholic Powers will finally restore religious peace to the enfranchised nation. A great victory has been won.

MASSACRE OF INDIANS. - We copy the following from the San Francisco 4nd Ocean Mail Letter :—" Never, as journalists, have we been called upon to comment upon so flag. rant and inexcusable an act of brutality as is in volved in Gen. Kibbe's last In Tian war—a scheme mofornstuinrdheurnicaonncalnidvecdowinaisaple3c,autlrioticointva.nlifteixie account din t of Mr. George Lount, a resid e nt o . t . Pitt River, be true, Gen. Kibbe and all the cowardly band of cut throats who accompanied him should be hung by the law for murder; for murder it is, most foul and inexcusable. Sixty defenceless Indian women and children killed in their own ranclieria at night, by an armed band of white ruffians. The massacre of Glencoe does not afford its parallel for atrocity. This band of Indians were friendly, had committed no outrage, were on their own lands, in their own homes, only 10 Indian men with them, unarmed and helpless. Gen. Kibbe's name, if responsible for these acts, should be more infamous than Hay nau or any of the licensed butchers of tyranny. This massacre is not excused even by the common plea of expediency, policy, or necessity which has palliated the butcheries oc history. The Ind i ans have been driven from their hunting ground by the white man's stock. Their fishing racks have been destroyed by the caprice or for the convenience of the white man. Their grasshoppers are driven away by the cultivation of the soil. Their acorns are exhausted by the white man's hog, and, driven to desperation by actual want and starvation, they have stolen the white man's ox. ' When Governor Weller, on Sept. 15, authorised W. J. Jarboe to or ganise a company- of 20 men to make war on the In dians who had been stealing stock, every man pro vided his own horse, rifle, revolver, knife, and am munition. In 70 days they had 15 battles (?) with the Indians ; killed more than 400 of them; took 600 of them prisoners, and had only three of their own number wounded and one killed. In 13 of their fights the whites were the assailants, attacking the red men either in their rancherias at daylight, or encamped soon after having stolen stock. In two cases the Indians were the assailants.' Brave gal lant Jarboe ! Brave and gallant Twenty.' Under the license of law; under the cover of night; in the safety of your ambush, you have murdered in sold blood more than 400 sleeping, unarmed, igno rant, unoffending Digger Indians, men, women, and children. Listen to the horrible detail of one of the most atrocious massacres !—"fhe attacking party rushed upon them, blowing out their brains and splitting open their skulls with tomahawks. Little children in baskets, and even babes, had their heads smashed to pieces or cut open. Mothers and infants shared the common fate. The screams and cries of the victims were frightful to hear, but no supplica tion could avail to avert the work of devilish butchery. It will scarcely be credited that this horrible scene occurred in Christian California, within a few days' travel from the State capital. Humanity sickens at the thought. Many of the fugitives were chased and shot as they ran. Where whole families had been butchered was indicated by heaps of bodies, composed of the mother and her little ones. The children, scarcely able to run, toddled towards the squaws for protection, crying with fright, but were overtaken, slaughtered like wild animals, and thrown into piles. From under the haycocks, where some of them had taken re• fuge, they were dragged out and slain. One woman got into a pond hole, where she hid herself under the grass, with her head above water, and concealed her papoose on the bank in a basket. She was discovered, and her head blown to pieces —the muzzle of the gun being placed against her scull—and the child was drowned in the pond. The ground was covered with blood, and the brushwood ranches, of which there were 50 or 60, were filled with the de ad bodies. Old decrepit squaws, young girls, and infants , none were spared. Guns, knives, and hat chets- were used, but the favourite method appears to have been stav ing in the head with_tomahawks. The blush of dawn shone upon this fearful spectacle, and still the massacre went on. Some of the wretched crea tures had lived with the very men who now, struck them down. Yet this iniquitous deed goes un punished—unpunished did we say? A bill of nearly 70,000 dols. is now before the Legislature await ing payment, to be distributed, in part, among these crimsoned murderers! Many of the women were found butchered with their children in their arms —the mother's head blown or cut to pieces, and that of the child split in twain by tomahawks. In their blind and insatiate fury they killed one of their own party (M'Elroy) while firing into a bevy of squaws who had huddled together for protection. When the slaughter was over, the shambles were examined, and more than 60 squaws and children and 10 Indian men were found dead on the field.' Let this matter be thoroughly ex amined. Let 10,000 dols, be expended to ferret out and bring to justice the guilty party. It .is due to humanity. It is due to the fame of the State. It is due to the oemocratie party. It is due to the Indian." The annual meeting of the subscribers to the Royal Literary Fund was held yesterday at the office, Great Russell-street, Bloomsbury, Earl Stan hope in the chair. There were also present Mr. W. M. Thackeray, Mr. Monckton Milnes, M.P , Mr. Panizzi, Mr. R. Bell, Mr. W. Tooke, the Rev. Dr. Major, Mr. F. Godwin, &c. The minutes of the 1 tat general meeting having been read and con 'firmed, the hon. secretary read the report of the council for the past year, from which it appeared that during the past year they had expended £1,640 in relieving th e wan t s o f di s t resse d authors and their families. The total number of grants was 49, of which two were of £lOO each, one of £7O, three of £6O each, five of £6O eac h, an d the others of smaller sums. Of the a ppli cants 35 were gen tlemen and 14 ladies. Among th e l atter were fi ve a uthoresses, the other nine being the widows of authors. Several of the applicant s were re li eve d f or th e se venth time out of the ,fund. Of the total sum distributed, the gentlemen received £985, and the ladies £655. The corporation commeneed the year with a balance in hand to the ext en t o f £205, i nc l u di ng which, its total income arising from the fund, house property, subscriptions, and other sources, amounted to £2,246 2s. 4d. ; deducting. from which £1,640 paid in grants, plus £76 19s. 7d.—the balance in hand at the termination of the year—it appeared that the cost of the general management of the fund amounted to £529 2 s . 9d. Thi s re p or t having been received and a d op t e d,- th e th a nks of the meeting were voted to the registrar, treasurers, and auditors of the corporation for their services during the past year. The chairman then said it became his duty to read to the meeting a report. of the general committee, in reference to .an offer that h a d b een made to t h e corporation through Mr. Ch ar l es Di c k ens an d M r . El w y n . This report, without stating the nature of the offer , according to rumour, was a large and valuable library —merely stated that the committee, after carefully considering the subject, had come to the resolution to decline the proffered gift ; whereupon the offer had been withdrawn. Earl Stanhope then went on to say that the meeting would perceive that the report was a very short one, but that he should at .once proceed to inform those present why it was the comm itt ee did not thitik it desirable to go into the matter at greater length. It was simply because they did not think it expedient to state anything which might lead to controversy. The general committee did not trouble itself with the nature of the offer, as their duty was merely to consider whether they should recommend the society to accept it, and under all the circumstances of the case they decided that the offer ought not to be accepted. Whereunon the two gentlemen through whom it came withdrew it, and there was therefore now no question to be brought before the meeting. It had fallen to his lot to take the chair at some of the meetings of the committee while the subject was being considered, and it was imt just to Mr. Dickens and Mr. Elwyn that he should bear witness to the courtesy, kind ness, and conciliatory spirit which they displayed throughout the whole proceedings. Indeed nothing could have been more satisfactory. (Hear, hear.) There being now no offer before th e soc i e t y, t h e question was at rest, and it was not desirable by further discussion to re-open the question. It was not, however, the wish of the committee to fetter the freedom of any gentleman present, t o w h om i t was perfectly open to raise the question. The committee thought that such a course was not de sirable, nor did the gentlemen themselves whose names he had already mentioned wish to have the discussion renewed, and he was s ure t h e meet i ng would agree with him in the sentiment that, while gentlemen think it a duty by all means in their power to improve the society, they were justified in taking for that purpose whatever course they could reconcile to their own sense of justice, but that it was for the advantage of the meeting to avoid everything like controversy, and confine themselves to the literary and benevolent objects for which they had been incorporated. (Hear, hear.) The more they could, coesistently with these objects, avoid all controversies of an angry character the better it would be for the institution in - whose welf,re they were all concerned. The re port was then adopted, after which the Bishop of St. David's Was elected a vice-pmident of the cor poration in succession to the late Lord Macaulay ; the Rev : Dr....Croly, the Rev. Dr. Russell, and the Right lion. E. Cardwell were elected to fill three vacancies in the council, and there being one vacancy on the general committee Mr. W. Thacke ray was elected to fill it. Earl Stanhope, in ex preEsing his acknowledgments for the vote of thanks fcr his conduct in the chair, said he had great plcaSure in announcing that the next anniversary meeting would be presided over by that distin guished scholar and historian as well as illustrious prelate, the Lord Bishop of St. David's. The pro ceedings then terminated. ROYAL GEOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY. A meeting of this society was held on Monday evening, Sir Roderick I. 'Murchison, in the chair. vice-president, The papers read were-1. " South Australia. Exploring Expedition into the Interior of the Con tinent," by J. Macdougall Stuart. Communicated by the Duke of Newcastle, F.R.G.S. Mr. Macdougall Stuart, whose previous impor tant explorations have been brought at different times under the notice of the society, and were re• warded last year by the presentation of a geld watch, succeeded, accompanied by two persons, in penetrating to a point a little higher thin 27 S. lat., and 131 E. lo ng ., a di stance of about 300 miles be yond the farthest point reached by Babbage and Warburton, the result of which has been the dis covery of an immense tract of country, exceeding in richness of pasturage and abundance of water any thing that has yet been met with. Mr. Stuart started from the Emerald Springs early in April, and reached his farthest point about the middle of May, and during the entire journey was never a day without water. The country traversed con sisted of immense plains, interspersed with innume rable hillocks, from 100 to 150 feet high, from the summits of which gushed out springs of pure fresh ' water, intersecting the plains and discharging them selves into numerous creeks and rivers, running in an easterly direction. One of the rivers discovered is described as being, in one part of its course, three miles wide. Mr. Stuart made occasional detours of between 20 and 25 miles, and found the character of the country everywhere, as far as the eye could reach, the same, and considers the difficulties in the way of crossing the continent to the northern coast in the vicinity of Cambridge Gulf by no means great ; in fact, he proposes to accomplish this by penetrating with a highly equipped party to dis tances of two or three hundred miles from the farthest point gained, where he purposes forming depots with supplies, and by this weans to cross the continent. If this be accomplished it would form a direct route for telegraphic wires, which might eventually connect the colonies of Australia with India and Europe. A considerable portion of the district traversed is represented as auriferous, and Mr. Stuart reports the probable existence of an extensive gold field (about lat. 28 S., long. 135.50 E.), in a basin surrounded by low hills. Col. GAWLER said that the discovery by Mr. Stuart of a fertile, well-watered country to the north west of Port Augusta confirmed the predictions he had made from meteorological observations. Ile had always observed that when the wind blew from that direction it was charged with moisture; whilst the wind from the north-east, which had been ascer tained to be a saline desert, was extremely dry and parching. He said that Australia resembled in its physical conformation an immense crater, there being high mountains all round the coast, from which the land inclined inwards, forming a hollow, and he believed that in the centre of that island-continent there would be discovered a large lake. 2. " Discovery of a new hat b - ur on thc exist of Australia ;" communicated through the Duke of Newcastle, F.R.G.S., through Sir G. F. Bowen, F.R.G.S., Governor of Queensland. In forwarding extracts from the log-hook announcing this dis covery, Sir G. Bowen observes that, northwards of the southern boundary of Queensland (about ht. 29 deg. S.), ranges of considerable elevation, and ex tensive plateaux of table-land, extend northward to the Gulf of Carpentaria and Torres Straits. This territory, though a large portion of it lies within the tropics, enjoys a comparatively cool and salu brious climate. It is in rapid process of occupation by the flocks and herds - of the settlers. Between the table-land above mentioned and the coast of the Pacific lie extensive tracts of soil, admirably adapted for the growth of cotton, sugar, &c. ; timber in vast quantities, and gold, and other minerals abound. These facts rendered the existence of capacious harbours a matter of the highest practical import ance—consequently, Capt. Sinclair and his party, anticipating a handsome reward for the discovery of a good and secure harbour, sailed from Rock hampton (Fort Curtis) in search of one, and also of the mouth of the Burdekin river. After visiting various points and islands to the north (some of which • Mr. JUKES then briefly descrihel the character of the coast of Australia, particularly that of the north east, and the coral reefs that extend along it, and said that those coral reefs, which rise only as high as low water, extend for 1,200 miles, with an averaEe width of thirty miles, and the sea close to the Loral rocks has been sounded to a depth of 1,800 feet without reaching the bottom, The coral polypes which have produced that range of lime- stone rocks under the sea cannot live at a greater depth than fifteen fathoms; therefore it is assumed thatin the course of the countless ages during, which the rocks have been forming the land must have been gradually depressed. Mr. Jukes said that the country along that coast is more fertile than on any other part of the shores of Australia. The moun tains are about 30 miles distant, and the interven ing seaboard is capable of producing cotton, sugar, or any other produce of tropical climates. Sir EDWARD BELCHER dissented from Mr. Jukes's theory of the formation of the coral reefs, and said he had dredged up the living polypes from depths of 1,000 feet. ,He mentioned variations in the level of the rocks at different times of observation, which showed that they were subjected to local depres sions not dependent on any assumed depression of the land. Mr. CRAUFURD said`he was glad to 'congratulate the meeting that there had at last been discovered a tract of land in British possessions within the tropics where cotton might he produced in abun dance, with the assistance of Chinese labour. After some observations from Mr. Wilson and Mr. Saunders, the meeting adjourned to the 26th instant. CENTRAL ITALY. As far as depends on the vote of the population the fate of Central Italy is now decided. The result of the elections in all four provinces of Tuscany, Parma, Modena, and the Romagna, is now suffi ciently known. By enormous majorities, by a vote almost amounting to unanimity, the people have de cided for annexation to the Sardinian Kingdom, and have utterly rejected both the claims of their legitimate Sovereigns and the scheme which has been lately put forward by the Emperor of the French. So important a political act has not been performed since the autumn of 1852, when the French nation, by a vote almost as decisive, over threw the Republic, which had been founded less than five years before, and established the Imperial Monarchy which now rules their country. The present appeal to universal suffrage will, however, have the sympathies of Englishmen more than any former display of the kind. It cannot be doubted that the act of the population is sincere. A nation which has suffered more than any other in Europe, the whole of whose modern history has been a long record of oppression, --a nation which has not only never known public liberty and national indepen dente, but nose private life has been embittered and degrade by all that the petty tyranny of Courts and the bad activity of a police can perpe trate, has at length been able to pronounce in favour of union and Constitutional Government. No one —not even Lord Normanby, not even the organs ' of the Viennese Government—will venture to say ' that this extraordinary vote does not express the real feeling of the Italian people. There is no ques tion of force or fraud, of terrorized peasants and cheating ballot-boxes. The Pope, the Austrian press, the Ultramontane clergy, and their few sympathizers in this country, will be able to say that the Italian people are mad, possessed, led away by the teachings of atheists and revolutionaries; but they will he obliged to confess that, right or wrong, the whole mass of them utterly reject the Government under which tht.-v have hither to lived, and desire to link their fate to that of the Monarch against whom Austri-t would willingly let slip the dogs of war, and at, whose head Inc Pope is ready to hurl an excommunication. Where all are so completely in favour of annexation it is impassible to say that one province exceeds the other in enthusiasm. But undoubtedly the vote in Tuscany and in the Romagna has a greater impor tance than in the two minor provinces. The French Government had already assented to the union of Parma and Modems with Victor Etnmanuel's king• dote, and consequently the voting there may be taken as merely formal. The addition of these small States to Piedmont seems to excite no jealousy on the part of the Power which desires the Alps as a protection against a too powerful Italy. Austria has made up her mind not to interfere, the popula tion is known to be friendly to Piedmont, they have no traditions of provincial rivalry to keep them apart, and their addition to King 'Victor Emmanuel's domains may be taken as a matter of course. But we own that we have been much relieved by the approach to unanimity in Tuscany and the Ro magna, for the destiny of these provinces still hangs in the balance. Tee French Emperor cannot be considered to have ,iven up his plan of an inde pendent kingdom in Tuscany, and of a Piedmontese regency in the Papal province. If any considerable number of voters had pronounced in favour of these views the destinies of the two provinces migt t be very doubtful. A party favourable to Papal suzerainty and to a new Duchy of Tuscany would, when disclosed by the ballot-box, have given encouragement to all the enemies of Italian unity. The apparatus for working on continental popula tions had beer carried to such perfection in certain quarters that we may be sure that a fourth, or even a fifth, of the Tuscans or Romagnoli, if supported by France or Austria, would have the power to counteract the wishes of the great majority. But, happily, and we should think somewhat to the surprise of the French Government, the proposi tions emanating from Paris have found hardly a partisan in the two provinces. By the.. 4 telegrams which we publi s h it w ill be seen that !tt: Tuscany not one elector in 25 voted for the sepa rate kingdom. • The list is made up, with the ex ception of 108 communes, and stands thus :—For the annexation to Piedmont, 259 ; 000; for the sepa rate kingdom, 10,729. Now, we do think that this is a most remarkable and important result. Nothing can show the fixed resolution of the Italian people more than the Tuscan vote. The Duchy and its celebrated metropolis have a long and glorious history. Every Florentine has been accustomed to consider his city as a capital, as rivalling Rome in the presidency of Italian cities, as the pure fount of Italian literature, ancl. 7 , the classic home of art. Nor has Florentine jealousy of other cities wholly died out. Many very prac tical politicians have been in favour of preserving the present Italian sovereignties, and being con tent with uniting them in something like a federa tion, and this solely on the ground that neither Milan, Florence, nor Turin would ever recognise the claims of any city but itself to be the capital of the monarchy. This sentiment has been appealed to and encouraged by the manifesto of the French Emperor. Florence has been told that the greatest potentate of the Continent thinks that she should still remain a capital city, and that the banks of the Arno should still be honoured with the resi dence of a Court and the throng of visitors from all parts of the world. To give up, or, at least, to stand the chance of giving up all this, and at the same time to offend the master of half a million of men, has been the choice of the Tuscans. They have voted unconditional annexation to Piedmont, and the small minority which has listened to the counsels of M. Thouvenel only Serves to show the preponderance of the opposite opinion. Florence is content to take its rank with the other cities of Victor Emmanuel's kingdom in order that the slarling cljcet of I taiian unity may b e att a in e d. Nor is the result of the elections in the Romagna less noteworthy. In that province, of Bologna, which suffered so much from Austrian oppression and priestly mischief, the Pope has received a severe lesson. The votes for annexation to Pied mont are 78,478 ; for a separate kingdom only 70 . In the province of Ferrara 48,000 people have voted with the like re:,ults. We trust that we now see the end of the Papal pretensions over this rrovince, and that the Ministers of Pins IX. will learn from the loss of this fair region how necessary it is to rule with wisdom, justice, and ' mercy. But a year ago the Pope felt himself secure from the anger of his ill-treated subjects. Their complaints and the remonstrances of the world, including the first Catholic Power of Europe, failed to move him. " Non possunws" was the answer to every appeal in favour of justice and good government,. Now the retribution has come. The territory of St. Peter is rent in twain ; in a whole province hardly a frac tion of the people can be found to declare in favour • of their former ruler, and they leave the spiritual head of Latin Christendom without a regret to find happiness and prosperity under other auspices. One remarkable circumstance remains to be 211 E N.AVY. In addition to the vessels now in progress at Chatham Dockyard, Admiralty orders have been received at that establishment directing six line-of battle and other ships to be laid down as soon as vacancies occur in the building slips now occupied. The vessels ordered to be built will include one 91- gun line-of-battle screw steamer, to be named the Pitt; one 51-gun screw frigate, to be called the Pomona ; one 22-gun steagArof 4 190 ,horie-power, which will be named the Menai ;Mid — three other ships, including a 22-gun screw c orve tt e o f 400 horse-power ; a 17-gun screw steamer of 200 horse power; and a 4.gun steamer of 200 llorse-power, not named. The aggregate of the six vessels or• dered to be built will be nearly 20,000 tons. The Galatea, 26, screw frigate, 800 horse-power (nominal), in the fitting d oc k a t Chatham, is or dered to be made ready to be attached to the second division of the steam reserve in the Medway. The Plover gunboat, being built at Woolwich, is ordered to be sent to Chatham, when completed, to be fitted for sea. Her Majesty's screw steam sloop Osprey, 4, Com. H. J. Blomfield, commissioned in March, 1856, for the Mediterranean,yesterday arrived at Woolwich, and, having been tried at the measured mile, she was hauled into basin to be stripped, and to return stores. Commander Blomfield is ordered to be in readiness to pay off on Thursday, the 22d Inst. The Firefly, 4, paddle, Master-Commander Skead, sailed from Spithead for tho westward yesterday, after coaling and taking on board supernumeraries. The screw steam frigate Mersey, 40, Capt. Cald well, C. 8., has shipped some supernumerari es , an d will shortly leave Plymouth Sound and join th e Channel Skufidron. _ _ __ _ The screw steam frigate Diadem, 32, Capt. J. H. Cockburn, will be ready to leave the Devonport dockyard for Plymouth Sound about the 18th inst. The repairs of the paddlewheel surveying vessel Porcupine, 3, Capt. Otter, at Plymouth, will be completed early in April. The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty :—Lieut. the Hon. Fred. O'B. Fitzmaurice, to the Victory ; Jesse• Bridgeman, chief engineer, to the Cumberland, for service in the Charybdis ; Robt. I. Ray, promoted to acting chief engineer, to the Slaney; Wm. F. Innes, promoted to acting first-class assist.-engineer, to the Princess Charlotte; Wm.-Horniman, paymaster, to the Me gmra ; R. Bona, paymaster, additional, to the Cam bridge; H. Beaxton, additional, to the Asia ; Percy 11. French, assist.-clerk, to the Ganges. THE ARMY. Lieut. W. S. Maud, of the Royal Engineer Train, who has been appointed to the Staff of the Commanding Royal Engineer at Dover, has been succeeded at Chatham by Lieut. IV. R. ►Macke, R.E., who has been attached to the Royal Engi neer Train. A b itch of cast iron guns, manufactured at Low-- moor, for the purpose of being rifled and strength ened according to Sir Win. Armstrong's princip!e, were yesterday tested at Woolwich. The erection of the 20 . t0n steam hammer for the manufacture of the coils with which the guns are to be enveloped is now complete, as Weil a, the arrangements for making the 100-pounder Armstrong guns at. Wool wich. The whole of time buildings ordered to be constructed to give full scope to the establishment. are in a forward state, and the factories will be in a working condition at the close of the month, as announced, with an augmentation of 300 practical hands, so as to comtvence the addi tional operations . with the beginning of the ensuing financial year, April 1. A new and successful method for remedying the disad vantage and delay hitherto experienced by the necessity of sponging out the guns under a course of constant firing has been invented by the experi mental officers at . Shoeburyness—namely, a lubri cating wad, simply made of hemp dipped in a solu tion of beeswax and grease. The wad has been tried in a course of experiments, and bas been found to remedy the fouling effectually. The wax, of course, is placed between the charge of powder and the missile, and, on examination after the discharge, the gun has been found cleaned out, ready for being reloaded. REPEAL OF TIIR CUSTOMS DUTY ON FOREIGN PAPER.

" The rags expo r t e d t o France i n n d 1857 were woollen B6 rags only, the greater portion of which were exporced by us ; the demand for them sprang up in France in consequence of the high price of wool.' "3. We are told that flax refuse may be exten sively used in the manufacture of paper. So it may be, and so it has been for the last 50 years ; but it cannot be grown for this purpose, as the flux itself, whether of long or short growth, will fetch more for twine and rope and other purposes than the paper-maker could afford to give. Mr. M. Gibson's model agriculturist, who grew flax at a greater pro fit than wheat, converted the flax straw into fibre, he says, for the Leeds flax-market; but he did not send it to a paper mill! " 4. We are told that it is a mistake to suppose there is any deficiency in the supply of rags, if we take the whole world as the source of supply, in stead of two or three particular countries. We be lieve this to be true, but, unfortunately, we are shut out from free ueeebs to all countries, with one or two exceptions. 5. We are told that large quantitits of straw may be converted into paper. No doubt they may be, but at the best straw paper is but a bad substi tute for paper made from rags.. " 0. We are to!d the processes of paper-making in America are far superior to ours. We can only say that the price of printing paper in America is ld. per lb. higher than that of English paper of cor responding quality, apart from the duty. " 7. We have been told that the prohibition of the export of French rags was to be removed. \V now find that, in its stead, there is to be an export duty of an amount atthepresent time unknown, but which possibly may be tantamount to a prohibi tion. There are in nearly all countries prohibitions on the export of our raw materials or export duties upon them equivalent to from ld. to Pd. per lb. on the manufactured article, and it is now proposed to expose us to an unfair and ruinous com petition with foreign manufacture rs , to whose mar kets for materials we are denied ac cess, while at the same time our Government will give effect to and perpetuate the protective " London : March 14." Po r Icy of other countries. A letter_ from Testi], d, It is really astonishing to .See how little the - .Aus trian Government understand the feeling of their subjects, and especially of the Hungarians. When Prince Schwaizenberg, Count Stadion, and Dr., now Baron, Bach, resolved to break comp l etely with the established rights of the different parts or ti Austrian monarchy, and to weld Hungary, r'•eetia, and Transylvania—which in 1804, at the creation of the Austrian empire were formerly excepted from it, and continued to remain only in a personal union with the other provinces —into a new, one and indivisible realm, they really believed that as soon as the Hungarian movement would be put down by force of arms, all the inhabitants who speak the German language, or are of German descent, would become the supporters et' th e new _ rangled centralised system of administration. Having for many years given the largest circula tion to the f a b r i ca ti on . brat, the liur,;rarian op. presses the German, the Croat, and the Walleehi ae , the Austrian officials at last believed the calumny invented by themselves, and were therefore puzzled to ree that neither the F>lavonic nor the German population, neither Croat nor Wallachian, were content with the abolition of the Hungarian con stitutions, with the Austrian officials, and with the new territoriel divisions, and that the complete uniformity of the Austrian code, superseding not only the Hungarian but likewise the German common law, which in the Saxon land of Transylvania, in some districts in the county Szepey, in all the German towns had peaceably flourished under the Hungarian consti tution, was looked upon as a gigantic injustice. Surprised by such a result, and seeing especially that the Germans in Hungary make everywhere common cause with the Hungarians, they try now to create an animosity between the different populations of Hungary, and to rekindle the extinguished fires of national hatred which did them such excellent ser vice in 1848 and 1849. A warm lithographed appeal to the patriotic feelings of the German in habitants of Hungary has lately been extensively circulated; it is anonymous, and comes by post to every man of note or influence who bears a German name ; the papers are prohibited to print or to men tion it, but the Government 4*fficials are busy in spreading it. The .author is M. Witt, who calls himself Von I rring- ilGermin conspira tor, in 1821 a carbonaro, for eight years a political prisoner, and since a paid mem b er o f t h e Austrian police, ately entrust e d w ith th e e di tors hi p of the semi-ckcial Donau Zeitung. He advances the theory that descent constitutes nationality, that to give up the ancestral language is akin to the crime of parri cide, and that Germany has therefore the right of claiming the allegiance of her sons even after cen turies of emigration in any foreign country. He upbraids the Germans of Hungary for wearing the Hungarian costume, for speaking the Hungarian language, and for dancing the Hun gar i an dance. He reminds them that Hungary can not maintain a separate existence and must be crushed either by Russia or by Germany, and therefore invites the Germans to assist rather the Austrian Government in this work, than by their opposition to postpone the crushing process to a time when Russia will perform it. This appeal bad no influence whatever on the Ger mans ; they receive it with laughter mixed with indignation. Many of them have for centuries past become so identified with Hungary that nothing but their name is German; others find it rather bold of M. Witt to advocate a theory according to which not only Mr. Buchanan, the President of the United States owes still his allegianc e t o S co tl an d , an d accordingly to Queen Victoria, but which actually makes the Emperor Francis Joseph of Lorraine a Frenchman. The German poets, Chamisso and De La Motte Fouque, are, of course, guilty of a crime akin to parricide, and Necker and Guizot have be trayed Switzerland by becoming Frenchmen. The English nation ought to look closely upon the Barings, and the Lussians upon the Nesselrodes and Adlcrsbers, lest they should betray, as they aro bound to do by M. Witt's reasoning, their present country to their real Fatherland. It is scarcely worth while to waste time in refuting this absurd circular, which betrays the ignorance and political childhood of the man to whom the semi-official organ of the Government is entrusted. But since I see that the German press in general is apt to misunderstand the principle of nationality, and to restrict it to persons speaking the same language, and being of the same descent, it is not un necessary to say a few words en this ques tion. 'Nationality means neither community of language nor a common origin, or else the United States and England and be one and _. the same nationality, and Switzerland would have no nationality whatever; the Alsatians would fcel themselves Germans - not French, and the Channel- Islanders, Frenchmen not English. In Hungary we understand the principle of nationality as com prising the identity of interests and community of history and of institutions, within a clearly-defined, well-boundeal territory, making it necessaty to all the inhabitants to stand by one another, er to he conquered by foreigners, Ml° have interests dlt= ferent from ourselves ; who do not care for consti ' tutianal government ; whose centre of gravity does not fill within our country ; who do not respect our traditions, our historical development, our standing in u iiversal history. Thus was nationality understood with us for all the centuries past. Our nobility is not of exclusive Magyar descent •, we have Germans, and Serbs, and Italians, and Wal lachians, and Poles, and Slovacks, among them. In 1849, when all Europe believed that our war was an exclusively Magyar movement, our Minis ter of Finance, M. Dassek, WP.S a Croat; the Minister of Justice, M. Vunkovich, a Serb ; the commander of the Transylvanian army, General Bern, a Pole ; and among the thirteen generals mur dered by the Austrians at Arad we find a Count Leiningen and Baron P6ltenberg, Generals Lanmr the Wallach oe i n a: tii a lleg n y d s:arctoainstt and Aulich, of German descent, and Damianich, a Serb; but all of them as good Hungarian patriots as the Kiss, Dessewffy-s, Kazinczys, Nagy, Sandors, Vecseys, &c., who sanctioned the gallows by their martyrdom.

A DUEL PREVENTED AT BRISIOL. (Front the Western Daily _Press.) On Monday afternoon an application was made to Henry Pritchard, Esq., one of the city justices of the peace, by Mrs. Carter, the wife of a gentle man named Alfred Thomas Bridgen Curter, under circumstances which led to the issuing a warrant for the apprehension of Mr. A. T. B. Carter, of Row. land Cottage, and Mr. Georg e Saunders, of Bel grave House, surgeon, owing to the former having sent a challenge to fight a duel, which had been search accepted by the latter. Ode of the may or ' s ser geants (Derges) was selected for the apprehen sion of the parties named in the warrant, and about five o'clock he, accompan ied b y a n other of the ma yor's sergeants, named Chapman , went off inh of the would-be belligerents, and first introduced him self to Mr. Carter, who was busily engaged i n making arrangemcrts for a d e p attw t b to . t i l l' iou si rn t e l ; to Calais, where matters w o'clock train Ibr London, prep arato ry settledereotiebneleii.i Merges, "ho nourably after the m anner of gen with becoming delicacy, imparted the na t ure o f hi s business, on ;which Mr. Carter pointed to a case of duelling pistols on thetlte table, and ii onicaliy ob served, " There ar e fellow that were to laconically remarked, do the business."
