The Revenue returns for thefinancial year, ending on the 10:h Octobei instant, will be found in another part of our impression. While a decrease is apparent on the enti-e year of 308,1831, there is an improve ment on the quarter of no less than 772,2961. ; thus afforclicg the most satisfactory proof that the tide has ind-ied turned, and that we may at length reasonably look forward to a return of that commercial and manufacturing activity by which the prosperity of all classes in the community is promoted, and the National Exchequer maintained in a satisfactory condition. It must not, however, be forgotten, that the quarter ending the 10‘..h Octoher,lB47, with which the present is compared, was one on which the consequences of the monetary distress, the universal want of credit that existed last year fell with the most crush ing effect; that it exhibited a deficiency of 1,276,9121. as compared with the corresponding quarter of 1846 ; and that a source of revenue is now opened for a limited period which did not exist in 1847, the duties on the admission of foreign corn, which had been suspended by orders in Council in consequence of the gineral deficiency of food occasioned by the my - s• terious visitation which destroyed the greater portion of the potato crop in the preceding year. This, however, only accounts for a portion of the improvement, which appears, too, under the most satis factory beads, viz , Customs and Excise. The Customs show a deficiency on the entire year year of 59,8301., but an ,increase on the quarter of 469,8391. This, as we have already stated, is attri butable partly to the extraordinary stagnation of every description of commercial enterprise so painfully apparent in the months of August, September, and October, 1847, which no longer exists to the same fearful extent, and partly to the duties on corn, which are now in operation. The Excise is generally regarded as the barometer of national prosperity, indicating the degree of comfort enjoyed by the industrious and hardworking classes ; there is I an ilnprovement here both on the year and quarter—on the former of 733,8431., and on the latter of 562,6 9 81. A portion of this may undoubtedly be explained by . an alteration in the manner of taking the accounts, by which the carriage duties and other credits, which were formerly included under the head of Stamps," have been transferred to the Excise derzrtment. We accordingly find a falling cff in that branch of the revenue of 932,2731. on the year, and of 246,0031. on the quarter. The latter figures will, however, show, that there has been an ' aelt.tvl„ and bona fide increased consumption of excise - njelailicles. That affords a just ground for congra ' tailti.:4l. The Taxes show a decrease on'theTe'Er s of 21,2x1:1 and a small improvement on the quarter, of 1,1711. The Property-tax, we regret to say, exhibits no ap pearance of re-action. There is a deficiency both on the year and the quarter—on the former of 52;9551., and on the latter of 25 - ,7 - 5W - This diminution the quarter in this important item would exhibit a diminution in the resources of all those pos sessed of 1501. per annum and upwards, either from realised property, or from their profes sional earnings, of more than 3,500,000/. per annum ; but, as it is the merchants, traders, and professional men generally who have been the chief sufferers from the general stagnation, we may easily conceive how much those classes must have encountered. Indeed, the property and income-tax returns may be looked upon as the index which shows the amount of prospe rity enjoyed by the middle classes. The revenues of the aristocracy will undergo little change, whatever may be the sufferings of the people. The fluctuations of the Excise will point out the condition of those situate at the base of the pyramid, the changes in the Income tax of those at the centre. The Post-office returns also exhibit a falling off both on the year and quarter, the latter, however, only amounting to 1,0001, is more favourable than could have been anticipated when the extraordinary improvements that have recently been effected in the department, and the additional facilities afforded to the public generally in the transmission of their cor respondence, are considered. There is perhaps no public department in which so much progress has been made, or in which the managers merit more of the public approbation. The decrease on the year amounting to 73,00 C/. Is attributable to the payment of large arrears due to one of the railway companies for the carriage of mails during the quarter ending sth July, to an amount exceeding the whole deficiency. The other items do not require any extraordinaay notice. There is a small improvement in the Crown Lands, both on the year and quarter, of 24,0001. and 20,0001. respectively, and a falling off in the Miscellaneous of 31,839/. on the year, and of 59,203/. on the quarter. On the whole, the returns to which we have alluded afford good grounds for congratulation, and lead us to think that the country has seen its worst days, and that we may reasonably look forward to a gradual and progressive improve ment in the national prosperity. Hungary, that noble land to which the imagina tion of every thoughtful cosmopolite reverts with a sense of such genuine homage. Hungary, that re gion of the Mag-5 ars, w here every peasant has the bearing of a nobleman, combined with all the manly virtues and elevating qualities of civilized life—Hun gary has become the victim of the infuriated des potism of the Continent! Since the commencement of the great revolutionary crisis in Europe, the Genius of Monarchical and Imperial Tyranny has been abased and violated. Democracy has knocked even at the palace gates of Vienna and Berlin. Men who were considered until February the most astute statesmen cf the age have been driven forth from the halls of Neuilly and Schoenbrunn in a manner the most precipitate and ignominious. King craft has been mocked, or :dandled, or destroyed, at the pleasure of the mob. The prestige of royalty has disappeared—the spirit which has awed mankind during so many centuries has been laid—the people have discovered it to be the veriest illusion that ever scared a village schoolboy—they have handled the tur nip and the sheet, and tke charm has vanished ! What wonder if after this prostration of is authority before the superior authority of that people which has been created by GOD in the same mould, what marvel, we say, if after this prostration ofits authority, monarchical power has nourished in its breast the thoughts of hatred to the " rabble," and,of vengeance for its degradation ? Hitherto, by a merciful dispensation Of PROVIDENCE, the Emperor of AUSTRIA (a potentate who must be regarded as the representative of this infuriated royalty), has been prevented from grati fying his yearning for revenge by the extraordinary posture of affairs throughout the length aed breadth of his gigantic and heterogeneous dominions. The people were predominant even in the metropolis of the empire—what hope then for him to exhaust his rage upon any portion of his subjects. To a candid and undesigning intellect the answer would have been cbvicusl3—" None." As it was, however, the guile of the minions of the KAHAN have enabled them to triumph over apparent im possibilities. Seeing no opportunity, they made one. Their dastardly and atrocious schemes have, up to this time, been, unhappily, too successful. Hungary became the point towards which all their missives of hatred were directed, the pivot round which their saturnine machinations revolved, the spot at which all the threads of their conspiracies were concentrated. We must acknowledge at once that there is a certain sublimity,' in tie daring of this des perate venture. For, of all the contingencies which presented themselves to the mind of the po litician in consequence of the late revolu tions, that of the separation of Hungary from the Austrian empire appeared for nearly four months to be the most probable. It appeared net only probable, but inevitable. And now, through the wily and unprincipled manoeuvres of the Court party, first at Innspruck, and next at Vienna, Hungary seems to be again involved in the toils of absolute authority, and doomed to the still further forfeiture of its independence. How this marvellous result has been accomplished becomes, therefore, an inquiry w ell entitled to:excite attention and to promote investigation. That inquiry is very easily answered. The problem is solved by coupling together an announce ment contained in the Breslau Gazette of the Ist of October, and another printed in the Wiener Zeitung of the sth of October. The for mer states that certain letters written by General the Baron jELLACIIICII, the leader of the Croatians, com plaining that the Court had failed to send him the stipulated amounts of men and money, and compro mising in a decided manner the Archdukes JOHN and FBA/eels CHARLES Lours, had been intercepted. The latter proclaims the fact that his Imperial and Royal MAJESTY has been most graciously pleased to appoint the Baron JELLACHICH, the Ban of Croatia, to tile post of Civil and Military Go vernor of Hungary. The complicity is transparent. Prom the effects we may trace our way, by the simplest rules of Inductive Philosophy, up to the causes. The whole contention between the Croa tians and the Ilungariens was, then, contrived in the council chambers of FERDINAND. JELLACIIICH was a mere instrument employed by Absolutism to wreak an execrable vengeance on Hungary. His price was ' so much money, but fortune has favoured his designs even beyond his original expectations. Now that the Archduke STEPHEN has been withdrawn from the Palatinate, now that the unfortunate Count LAN ISERG--R ho was appointed, a few days since, his successor has been murdered in cold bleed on the highway, torn from his car. riege, bludgeoned to death, and then hewn in pieces by scyttes] and bill-hocks—the Ban of CROATIA emerges from his temporary character as an adventurer, he stands before us as the stipendiary of the EMPEROR, and is solemnly robed in vice-regal costume as the Civil and Military Governor of Hungary. When all things are taken into consideration we very much doubt whether the result will be, even for a comparatively brief period, for the advantage of the dynastic party at Vienna. The whole pro ceeding is too base, too villanous, too unblushing, not to recoil with a tremendous retribution upon the heads of its originators. Hungary will be avenged, and that, too, in defiance of the almost unlimited power which has been given to the buccaneering JELLACHICII. Contrasting the Go vernor (the Baron JELLACHICH) with the Palatine (the Archduke STEPHEN), the Magyar population will yearn for the return of the latter, if even in the capacity of their newly and spontaneously-elected Sovereign. It would be a glorious vengeance to ac company the expulsion of the Croatian adventurer with the recal and the re-elevation of the generous and patriotic ARCHDUKE. DREADFUL FIRE.—A few minutes before five o'clock this morning, the extensive premises known as Holland's Flour-mills, Stanley-creek, near Cremorne Gardens, were discovered on fire, and but a few minutes elapsed before the entire property was in flames. Nothing could exceed the speedy arrival of the brigade; County, and West of England engines. Hopes .were entertained that some, pin tion of the property _could be saved, but unfortunately the fire had takers' too firm a hold, and by-six o'clock the destruction -was complete, ...tkbentire machinery, mill, &c., being entirely consumed, and nothing saved but th e ,ettlfie and some lit;le of its machinery. The thsellinenear is also destroyed. No cityse could bcf,assigted for this great loss of property, amounting to 5,0C0L, but insured in the At as Fire officevabe. fire was not entirely subdued till nine o'clock. .• THE CONWAY TUBE.—The second tube will be floated to its station on Thursday next, the 12th instant, commencing about two hours before high water.—Liver pool Mercury. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. The National Assembly met at a quarter before one, and there was a very full attendance of members, as it was expected that some Ministerial explanations would be made; none such however took place, although General CAVAIGNAC was early in his place, and was conversing very earnestly with a group of deputies who were assembled around him previous to the commence ment of the business of the day. All the amend ments proposed to Article 43 of the Constitution, re gulating the election of President, having been either negatived or withdrawn, the article itself was put to the vote and was carried by a majority of 479. The numbers being for the article 627 ; against it 130. The 44th Article, which declares that if "no can didate shall have obtained more than one-half of the votes given, the National Assembly shall elect the President of the Republic by ballot, and by an abso lute majority, amongst the five candidates who shall have obtained the greatest number of votes," was then proposed and was ',adopted, with a proviso that if no candidate should obtain more than half the votes given, and at least two mil lions of votes, the National Assembly shall elect the President. M. BOUZIQUE proposed, as an additional article, that " the relatives and allies, to the sixth de gree inclusively, of the President in power, or of an anterior President, whose functions should have ceased for less than four years, should be interdicted from being elected President," which was at once rejected, as was an amendment proposed by M• D MLLE, that no General should be elected President of the Republic. The President then announced that he had before him several amendments against admitting members of the fallen dynasties to be elected President of the Republic, and called on M. ANTHONY THOUHRT to support the amendment of which he had given notice. At the eonllusion of his speech there were loud calls for Louis NAPOLEON. M. Napoleon Bonaparte—l demand permission to speak.—(Agitation.) At this moment M. Pierre Bonaparte was on the point of ascending the tribune, when, on hearing his cousin's voice, he stopped. Cries again rose for " Louis Napoleon," which, however, were unat tended to, asj the Hon. Member had not been in his place all day. M. Napoleon Bonaparte then ascended the tribune, and said—l had intended to make some remarks on the amendment now under discussion ; but I learned just before the sitting, that the Committee had taken the subject into consideration, and had been unani mous in rejecting it.—(Sensation.) In consequence, I leave to the Assembly the task of appreciating the question.—(Hear, hear.) M. Voirhaye, in the name of the Committee, stated that the subject of the amendment had several times been most carefully examined and unanimously re jected. The Committee were certainly of opinion that both Royalist and Imperial families were not the best calculated to give sound ideas on republican subjects, but still to belong to such a family v..as not a sufficient reason to cause a man to be excluded from the place of President of the Republic.— (Hear, hear.) The Committee were of opinion that the admirable instinct of the people ought to he trusted to in this matter. The democratic principle was too deeply rooted in the country to cause any fears to be entertained of what were called pretenders. In con clusion, he had to propose to the Assembly to reject the amendment. M. de Ludre supported the amendment; on the ground of the danger that would accrue to the Re public were one of the members of the fallen families to be elected President of the Republic. M. Coquerel had to propose the previous ques tion, as the amendments ought never to have been brought forward.—(Oh, oh.) If the Assembly were to adopt such an amendment it would be forming- a law against a man—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear") — and not a real part of the constitution. Renaud-Lagardette supported the amendment in a few words. At this moment Prince Louis Napoleon entered the Chamber and took possession of his usual place. M. Lacaze spoke strongly against the amendment, arguing that the persons against whom the amend ment was directed were not to be feared. M. Louis Napoleon Bonaparte then ascended the tribune amidst great tumult at first and deep silence afterwards, and said that he must protest against the name of pretender that was always applied to him. In the nama c,f the 300,000 electors that had chosen him, he considered it to be his duty to do this. The short address which the honourable represen tative delivered was badly expressed, and caused great agitation, the honourable representative not being likely to obtain much credit in the tribune. The effect produced by this break down of Lours NAPOLEON was electric. He had evidently intended to say more, but he stopped short, and, greatly dis concerted, left the tribune. Immediately M. ANTHONY THOURET rose, and in a tone of contempt, which was not even disguised, he said, that after the few short words they had heard, he was quite satisfied that his fears from the pretender were exaggerated, and that his amendment was needless, and that he therefore withdrew it. The observation was received with loud plaudits from all sides of the Assembly, excepting from that upon which Prince Louis NAPO LEON and his friends were seated. The article was then adopted, as was Article 45, declaring the President elected for four years, and re eligible after an interval of the same extent. The Chamber then adjourned. The Afoniteur says that accounts have been re ceived from the French establishments in the Pacific. ' The Republic was proclaimed at Otaheite on the 24th of June, in the midst of the unanimous adhesion of the officers, soldiers, sailors, and functionaries, as well as of the chiefs and native population." Several meetings have been held of influential Members of the various sections of the Assembly, in consequence of the vote of Saturday. The members of the club of the Rue de Poitiers sent a deputation to General CATAIGNAC to propose that he should be appointed Provisional President of the Republic, pos sessing all the 'powers of 'President, and being im movable until after the organic laws should have been passed, and that the election of President should be postponed for a year. The straightforward and honest General at once rejected this insidious propo sition, declaring that the provisional state of the Go vernment had lasted too long already—that the pre sent position of France required the immediate forma tion of a permanent and firm Government, and that immediately on the Constitution being voted, he should propose that the election of President should take place at once. The continued malignant and personal attacks of the Presse on General CAVAIGNAC are exciting the disgust of men of all parties. The National, in allu sion to them, says : " A journal, of which the violence increases in pro• portion as its influence diminishes, yesterday directed the most vindictive attacks on General Cavaignac. It is well known that all personal considerations would be of little consequence to us, compared with questions of principle. Provided the idea to which we have devoted our life triumphs, provided republican order gains strength, what matters it to us by whom ? And we are certain that the honourable men en whom is imposed the heavy task of government share our sentiments in that respect. We think of the Repub lic before thinking even of the Republicans who have rendered the greatest service to our cause. And it is precisely for that reason, that notwithstanding our repugnance to interfere in questions of persons, we believe it to be our duty to point put and combat these side attacks, the secret object of which is the overthrow of the Republic. That, no doubt, is a system of tactics clever enough, which consists in striking the Republican Government in the very men whom necessity and an almost unanimous assent, much more than their own will, have raised to power —in striking an idea in the instruments of that idea. Certain persons flatter themselves.to get their hatred against the' new order of things accepted more easily, by disguising it under the form of a simple struggle amongst men, But it is sufficient to point out such a system in order- to unmask it and brand it with re probation." ' The Re fcrme, the organ of M. LEDRU noLus, which has always been most consistently opposed to General CAVAIGNAC as a politician, and has never been very nice in its choice of words while vituperat ing his pOlitical acts, is disgusted, as every person of common honesty and of common decency must be, at the unmanly outrages not only on General CAVAIGNAC personally, but on every member of his family, and even on the memory of his father, in which M. EMILE DE GIRARDIN, with true reactionary ferocity, thinks it decent to indulge. After alluding to the personal attacks on General CAVAIGNAC himself, the Reforme proceeds—" The Presse does not stop there. It searches the Moniteur to insult, as much as depends on it, General CAVAIGNAC, even to the memory of his Ether a sad proceeding, a hateful speculation of calumny, which is of no time, nor of any honour, and of which those who employ it make, at times, an abusive use with the more security, from the fact that, owing to certain deficiencies of the tat civil, i re, , if, ~ :21f,', " ~ ~. ....,.-_.., ,0 „ ! u, , N, .. , ~,....

This last allusion is most severe, and in any other case would be unfair; but in the case of M. EMILE DE GIRAIIDIN it is richly deserved. The Corsaire says that M. GUIZOT is expected in Paris next week. M. VVoLowsKI has presented to the Assembly the following project for the establishment of a system of paper currency founded on territorial credit : " Art. 1. Each proprietor of landed property may demand from the Treasury the delivery of a certain amount of obligations hypothecaires equivalent to the principal of the land-tax capitalised on the footing of five per cent. " Art. 2. No privileges nor legal mortgages can take precedence of these obligations, which will enjoy all the rights accorded to the tax, and the int2rest of which, in addition to the sinking fund and the ex penses, shall be placed on the footing of five per cent., and become payable by twelfths at the same time as the tax. " Art. 3. These five per cents. shall be divided as follows :-1. The obligations hypothecaires will enjoy for each 100 f. an interest of one centime per day, or 3t. 65c. per annum, payable half yearly to bearer. 2. One per cent. to be devoted to a sinkicg fund. 3. Thirty-five centimes are to be paid to the Treasury for administrative expenses, and to take the place of the duties levied on loans and on mortgage inscriptions. " Art. 4. There shall be every six mon:Ls a drawing of the obligations issued ; those designated by this draw ing shall be immediately reimbursed at par as far as there are sums disposable for that purpose. The sink ing fund shall be augmented every six months by the interests on the liquidated obligation. "Art 5. The debtor may at any time pay cff the whole or part of the debt not yet sunk, by paying into the Treasury an equal sum in obligations, which shall be immediately cancelled. In all cases the sinking fund of one per cent. will completely liberate the debtor in 42 years. " Art 6. The obligations hypcthecaires will be detached from the Grand livre of the Dette fonciere opened at the Treasury. They will be for 100 f., 200 f., 500 f., 1,000 f., 5,000 f., and 10,000 f."

" We, FRANCIS 1., Constitutional Emperor of Austria, King of Hungary and Bohemia, tLo fifth of this named, King of Lombardy and Venice, of Dalmatia and Croatia, Slavonia, Galicia, Lodomeria, and Illyria, Archduke of Austria, Duke of Loth ringia,: Salzburg, Styria, Carinthia, Carniola, Upper and Lower Silesia, Grand Duke of Transylvania, Margrave of Moravia, Prince Palatine of Hapsburg, Tyrol, &c. &c. &c. "To the Ecclesiastical and Lay Dignitaries, Magnates, and Representatives of Hungary, the Grand Duchy of Transylvania, and all the neigh bouring Imperial Baronies, now assembled in the Royal free city of Peath, in the Diet convoked by us, we hereby send greeting. " To our deep sorrow and indignation the House of Representatives has been seduced into very illegal acts by LUDWIG KO3SUTH and his adherents. It has even executed several illegal resolutions, contrary to our Royal will, and has recently, on the 27th September, formed a resolution, against the mission of the Royal Commissioner nominated by us, for the restoration, viz., our Field-Marshal Lieutenant Count LAMBEBG, before the same could exhibit our full powers, in consequence of which resolution the said, our Royal Commissioner, vv as cruelly attacked by an infuriated mob in the public streets, and most barbarously murdered. Under these circumstances, we are compelled, conformably with our Royal duty, for the maintenance of public security and of the laws, to make the following decrees, and to command their execution. " 1. We hereby dissolve the Diet, which, immedi ately after the publication of this our Royal rescript is to close its sitting. " 2. All resolutions and ordinances of the present Diet, not sanctioned by us, we hereby declare illegal; invalid, and void of all efficacy. "3. We hereby subject to the command-in-chief Sclavonia, and Dalmatia, Baron JOSEPH JELLACICU, ati'llfl field troops ash andal Lu fCti armed ierota. a bodies H of men whatsoever, whether consisting of National Guards or free corps, in Hungary and the neighbouring countries, as well as in Transylvania. "4. Till such time as the broken peace and order of the country shall be restored the kingdom of Hun gary is laid under martial law ; and therefore all the authorities are commanded to suspend the holding of all county, civic, or district congregations. "5. Our Ban of Croatia, Sclavonia, and Dal matia, JosErn:BaronJELLACIIICII, is deputed by these presents as Commissioner Plenipotentiary of our Royal Majesty, and we hereby convey to him full powers and authority, in order that in the jurisdiction of the executive he may carry out those privileges with which, under the present extraordinary circum • stances, as the representative of his MAJESTY, he is invested. " By virtue of our Royal full powers, we hereby declare that all which the Ban of Crotia orders, con stitutes, resolves, and commands is to be regarded as instituted, resolved, and commanded by our royal authority ; and we hereby graciously command all ecclesiastical, civil and military authorities, ambas sadors, dignataries, and inhabitants Of whatever state or rank, of our kingdoms of Hungary, Transylvania, and all the neighbouring counties, that they execute and obey in all things commands signed by Baron JosErll JELLACIIICII, as one of the Royal Commis sioners Plenipotentiary, like as they are duly bound to obey our Royal MarEsTY. "6. We especially charge our Royal Commis sioner to take heed that the assailants and murderers of our late Royal Commissioner Count FRANZ LAM BERG, as well as all the movers and participators in this atrocious deed, be proceeded against with all the rigour of the law. "1. The general current business of the civil administration is to be carried on for the present by the appointed officers of the several Ministerial departments as commanded by the laws. " As soon as the security and conduct of the common interests of the whole monarchy shall be permanently re-estr.blished, the equal title of all subjects be for ever guaranteed, and on this foundation the mutual relations of all the counties and people united under our Crown, be regulated, whatever is most conformable will be deb thal and legally consolidated by a Council of Representative s from all parts. _ _ " Given at Sehonebrunn, 3d Oct., 1848. " FERDINAND. " ADAM ItESCEY, 11.I.inisterial President." Weiner Zeitung, Cct. 5. The news of the defeat of the left wing of the army of JELLACRICII is confirmed. On the afternoon of the 3d a division of 8,000 Croats took possession of the city of Raab and levied a contribution, as th e city was not in a state of defence ; but the whole of the surrounding country was in arms, and the Land strum was assembling at \Veissenburg and at all the neighbouring towns. Letters from the Archduchess SOPHIA to the Bin of CROATIA having been found upon Counts OEDEN and Evorsz . Zicur, they have been hanged as spies in the Hungarian camp. Count OEDON was brother in-law of Prince METTERNICII. There is a levy en masse of the Magyars throughout Hungary. General MEssANo has joined the Hun garian camp with 6,000 troops, and a levy of 15,000 peasants is on its way to join the Hungarian army. Every preparation continues to be made at Pesth to offier the most determined resistance to the BAN and his Austrian mercenaries. The Hungarians have intercepted and seized a quantity of specie, which had been sent from Vienna to the BAN to pay his army.

BENSCH proposed the following resolution : " The Ministry is requested to propose to the King a general amnesty for all political offences, as well as those committed against the press since the March revolution." M. de Berg (one of the extreme Left), to the sur prise of all parties, opposed the proposition, as calcu lated either to place the King in the odious position of refusing, or in the no less painful position of ap pearing to yield the brightest jewel of his crown, the prerogative of mercy, upon compulsion. The ma jority of the House were of the same opinion as M. de Berg, for after a short but sharp debate the urgency of the proposition was negatived. It is said, however, that the King has already adopted the reso lution to issue an amnesty, and that it will appear upon his birth-day. Let us hope that this act of mercy will bear good fruit. After this a most curious incident took place. M. Pieper, a butcher from Feshhausen, rose and said—" I hold it to be my duty, as a man of honour, to state to the House that I was called out of my committee room yesterday. Well, when I went out 2,000 dollars were offered to me, with 300 dollars travelling money, if I would vacate my seat. — (Immense tumult.) The miserable fellow who offered this is present.—(Name, name.) It is M. Damitz —(lmmense tumult)—of Reuhenbach. lam a poor man, but 10,000 dollars would not tempt me to for swear my duty.—(lmmense applause.) I do not belong to the Extreme Right, nor to the Left, but to the Centre. Woe to him who seeks to seduce me." In the same sitting a motion for the total abolition of all :game -laws was carried by a majority of 271 to 69. The cholera in Berlin is again on the increase. FRANKFORT. On the 6th a Bill was presented to the German Parliament for the protection of the Assembly and the officers of the central Government. All attempts upon the Assembly are assimilated to acts of high treason, and punishable with imprisonment for from 10 years, to,for life. All assemblages of people in the environs of the Assembly which shall not disperse at the first summons shall subject the parties to impri sonment for from three to twelve months. All meetings in the open air within five German miles of the Assembly are interdicted, under the penalty of six months' confinement. All acts of violence, threats, or insults against the Assembly, its members or offi cers, are to be punished with imprisonment for from six months to five years. Some of these provisions are made to apply also to the agents of the central government. Several amendments were proposed and discussed, and the debate was adjourned till the 9th. MALTA. Advices from Malta of the 21 October have been received. The comtnittee of surgeons has officially announced to the Governor that the cholera does not, and has not existed, in the island. TURKEY. Letters from Constantinople of the 26th ult. an nounce that the cholera had ceased at Smyrna. They contain no political news. GREE CE. Athenian journals of the 27th September have arrived. They bring intelligence of the prorogation of the Chamber of Deputies. An amnesty has been granted to all who were engaged in the late insurrection, with the exception of those chiefs alone who, having been pardoned for former rebellions, have again engaged in insur rection. WALLACHIA. Letters from Bucharest, of the 21st, represent the city as being in a state of great commotion occa sioned by the arrival there of the Turkish forces 16,000 strong. NEWS OF SIR JOHN FRANKLIN AND THE ARCTIC VOYAGERS. It is a week since only that we afforded our readers the last probable glimpse of the exploring party who have gone out in search of a solution of the mystery that hangs over the fate of Sir John Franklin, previously to their issuing again from the mysterious ground on which that solution is to be sought; and now, for the first time since the missing adventurers were lost sight of, at the threshold of that same ground, an indication of their where abouts has suddenly turned up. A letter, just re ceived by the Admiralty from Chief Factor Mac rpc,hpeorrstonfr,orndatie,edeil‘,slanrcivherl,thlaBt4thBe, E sa s y l s oi : m — a ` u ‘ x Th sa e w re t is wo a large boats (query ships ?) to the east of the Macken zie River, full of w hite men ; and they (the Esquimaux) showed knives, files, acc. ' to the Peel's River Indians which they had received from these white men. Could these have been Franklin or Rae ?" Mr. Hargrave, of York Factory, to whom Mr. Macpherson's letter is addressed, says, in communi cating this intelligence to the Admiralty, " It could not have been Rae in his last expedition, as his boats did not go beyond Committee Bay." Mr. Hargrave adds, that " But little credence can be given to Es quimaux reports." We do not see, however, any good reason for re jecting a rumour so welcome, and we gladly give it publicity. Presuming that the boats or ships were those of Franklin's expedition, their position, even east of the Mackenzie, is good as regards success, and better still as respects safety, since they must have been very near the coast. It has been ascertained that open water exists during the summer season from the Mac kenzie River to Bthring's Straits ; and we therefore dare venture to hope that the expedition may have effected the long desired N.W. passage this summer, and that the gallant party may be even at this mo ment approaching our shores. The anxiety respecting the lost party had grown finally to be very great, and the public will cling eagerly to the hope so suddenly presented. A very short time must test its value. Official and other authentic particulars respecting the cholera, with the best:mode of treatment, as recom mended by the " General Beard of health," appeared in the Übserver of Sunday last; (Oct. 8), to the extent of two of the Observer folio columns. The extensive pub lication of the Observer commences at six o'clock on Sunday morning. Monday's edition, best for the coun try and abroad, is published at four o'clock Monday afternoon. TILE SPITALFIELDS SCHOOL OF DESlGN.—Yester day the committee of the Spite Melds School of Design, which consists of an equal number of some of the most extensive manufacturers of silk and of the most skilled silk weavers in the metropolis, met at the institution to receive tenders for an improved loom, which will be con structed to manufacture silk fabrics on a scale much larger than can be done in the common loom, and which will be able to exhibit the design of the silk in a much more perfect form. The committee has been able to effect this improvement, with several others, for the ad vantage of tho pupils, in consequence of the munificent contribution received from the late ball. The school opened on the 4th of September last, aft( r the summer vacation, and there have been since added to the nutruier of scholars fifty. one boys and eleven young women, making the aggregate to be 205 of the former and 41 of the latter. Se%eral of them attend the lectures at So merset-house, on the History, the Principles, and the Practice of Ornamental Art. The new loom will be in operation at the institution when the patronesses, &c., of the ball will be enabled to see the effect of their exertions. _ _ James Mathison, Esq., M.P., has hero eketed a director of the Peninsular End Oriental Steam Naviga tion Company, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of the late Patrick Maxwell Stewart . , M.P., formorly a director and chairman of that company. - - MYSTERIOUS DEATII.-011 Sunday morning the body of a young woa.an unknown was found dead in a dyke near Stroud fair marsh, although at the time there ire only a few inches of water in it. The deceased was r.pparently about twenty-five years of age, but exhibited no marks of violence no tl: body, wh;ch has not been recoguistd.—ltlaidstone Journal, MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. In the Liverpool C itton Market yesterday there was but a moderate demand, and the quotations were without alteration. Sales, 4,000 bales. Railway Shares were again lower. — The continental advises received to-day are not of prominent interest, but there is an impression that Louis Napoleon will have a good chance of being elected Pre sident, because each party hopes to profit by his inexpe rience and assumed want of tact. As far as we can as certain opinions and wishes in the city, they are almost unanimous in favour of Lamartine, although there are many who apprehend that a military dictatorship is ne cessary to preserve the peace" among our neighbours. More than the usual scrutiny has been going on to day in connexion with the revenue returns, but we must say, that despite the cavilling of the Protectionists, there is generally a feeling of satisfaction at the result ; and it is fairly asked, "Could any country but England show as good a return, under similarly adverse circumstances?" Surrounded by nations in a state of revolution or open war, could any one imagine that our trade would not suffer? As to the decrease on the year it arises from tho January and July quarters, the first representing the efft eta of the failures in October, 1847, and the latter of the Chartist excitement and foreign troubles in April and June, 1848. The Post-office is making extraor ordinary exertions to accommodate the public, and from this the revenue of that department must at first suffer. The year 1846, to October 10, produced but 100,0001. more than the present year. In reference to the Indigo sales now in progress, we are informed by Messrs. Wilkinson and Jewesbury that they will comprise, according to the advertised quantity, 9,210 chests, of which 3,015 chests will ho old goods that were bought in or withdrawn from former sales, and 885 chests in second hands. There are 6,778 chests of Bengal, Oude, &c., 898 of , Madras, 692 of Kurpah, and the rest is Manilla, &c. The attendance is good, and, as regards the qualities, I the Bengal is about one-third good and fine, and two ! thirds middling and ordinary. The Madras ordinary, with a few chests good, but no fine. The Kurpah two-thirds ordinary, and one -third middling and good, ; with a few chests fine. The Oude ordinary, and the Bimlapatam middling and ordinary. The sales opened with a small parcel of fine Bengal, of the mark " J. and R. W.," and were mostly bought in at July rates; these were followed by a parcel of Kurpah, the finer sorts 1 selling at 3d. to 4d. per lb. advance; for the good ship ping qualities of Bengal there was but a limited demand, but may be quoted 3d. to 4d. per lb. higher, the prin cipal competition being for the good consuming sorts at I July prices to 2d. per lb. advance; for the Madras, which was ordinary, there was not much demand, and it was mostly bought in at July rates. The survey of the Halifax and Quebec Railway had been completed at the date of our last accounts, and a final report had been drawn up. The British Govern ment still continued most favourably disposed towards , the railroad. The whole amount of Copper that has been shipped this season from Lake Superior up to August 18, is 1,362,0001b5. of nearly pure metal. There is a very flit market again to-day for the Public Securities, and the quotations are weak, although they were at the opening expected to advance a little. In the remarks yesterday on the state of the Money Market the abundance of cash in the bankers' bands should have been stated as being probably never greater than now instead of " never great," as printed. Transfers have been resumed in the Stocks upon which the Divi dends are to be paid to the public on Friday, the 13th inst. Ne w Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have realised 84 to 1 ex. dividend, and the Three per Cent. Reduced 83- to 84 ex. div.; Bank Stock is worth 190 ex. div.; Exchequer-bilk have been 30s. to 335. premium for those of June, and East India Bonds 335. to 365. premium. The Foreign Securities are very quiet, but Mexican have been rather higher, viz., 1S to 194; Portuguese Four per Cents. are 231 to 24. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are 44k. Spanish Three per Cents. are no minally 22; 4 1 . to 23,i. Railway Shares have been rather better, the natural effect of reaction, but sellers must be cautious and for bearing if they desire to see settled improvement. olsE CLOSING Prti•Att; OF iiRITISII FUNDS.
