Absolutism has its avowed organs in London. We say thislas much in pity for our Contemporaries as in indignation at the course which they have not blushed to pursue towards a class of men who ought assuredly to h lye been saved from the assaults of the journalist by • the exquisite poignancy of their misfortunes. We mean the unfortunate refugees from Russian- Pulani.. The calamities which have driven these political outcasts to England are lamentable from a twofold consideration—firstly, because they originate in a great national catastrophe; and secondly, be cause they result in the personal miseries of penury and expatriation. Against these chil dren of misfortune we are distressed to see that several of our most influential con temporaries hare raised a hand as stern and pitiless as it is unhappily powerful. Under all circumstances it is painfal to witness the exercise of strength over weakness—whether it be in the ungenerous scorn expressed by a victorious foe over a fallen antagonist, or in the bludgeoning of the blind man and the cripple, by a strong and ruffianly assailant. Such a spectacle has been recently witnessed in the blows levelled against the Polish refugees by the Times newspaper and others of our Contemporaries. We do aver, with our whole heart, that a proceeding rnora disgraceful to the English press than the one to which we are . here making reference has stldoen, if ever, been observed since journalism first began to ekercise its authority under the patron age of Lord BURLEIGLI, or under the auspices of Sir ROGER L'ESTRANGE. It is MI occurrence such as cannot fail to derogate verb materially from the repu tation of those so called organs of public opinion in the British capital ; especially when the powerless position of the Polish refugees is contrasted with the enormous influence of our great morning Contem r orary. It will be well for the public to remark, however, that the dep;eciation of the charities in behalf of some hund eds%of destitute foreigners, is merely one out of a thousand examples of the principles of Absolutism which the Conservative members of the daily press of London are endeavouring by every' poVle and impossible means to propagate. We arc here—let it be distinctly understood—re ferring not only to the Times, but to the Morning Post and the Morning Chronicle. Those journals have latterly broken through all the bounds of de cency in regard to continental politics, and have de graded the dignity of the journalism of England by their malignant misrepresentation of the struggling n t ationalities of Christendom. Their enthusiasm in he ause of retrogr ess i on h as carried them to extre mities so marvellous that they have at last, without blushing f or such a total ab n egation of s elf-respect , ' pointed the finger of We scorn at the unfortunate refu gees from P o l an d I should have been amazed that a common sense of manliness had not prevented this most indecorous and disgraceful proceeding , but that vt a were prepared e ven f or such extrav agant exhibi tions of subserviency to th e cause of A bsolutism, by the sentiments already enunciated u p the aff airs of m the Continent by these among our .gntem - poraries. We had long observed that what was o desig nated Conservatism in England was synonymous with what is called Autocracy upon the Continent. The sympathy evinced for everything despotic or repres sive, whether in Austria or in Prussia, or else where, was altogether too glaring not to hav e been recognised. We had seen the grossest and meanest slanders that ever emanated from the calumnious imagination of M. EMILE DE GIEARDIN repeated, and corroborated, and bolstered up, and re tailed, ard paraded with extraordinary gusto in the columns of one journal. In another we had listened to the echoed sophisms, of the odious and obsolete policy of statesmen such as GUIZOT and METTERNICH. Il Witanscu9a t eTz battered down the walls of Vienna, if Milan was delivered up to the pillage of the Croatians, if Prague was given to the flames, if Hungary was ravaged by barbarian cohorts led on by a condottieri like JELLACUICH, if the population of Posen was decimated by the excru ciating brutality of the Prussian soldiers—there was a loud cry of exultation at once audible among the Conservative journals of London. ,Wherever a tyrant perjured himself by a coup detat—whenever his forces butchered the people in cold blood, there be sure were the hearts and the exulting Corres pondents of our Conservative Contemporaries. The sinister influences of the AUTOCRAT were, in this instance all powerful. The Tory journals of London have rejoiced upo n every occasion 00 . 14 Mated to afford satisfaction to the Russian Dequts and have lamented every circumatance, how ever insignificant, which could tend toretard the ter rible and degenerating progress ofßetrogression. It is, therefore, by no maans remarkable to find these organs i of the policy of NICHOLAS exaggerating their enthusiasm to such a degree that they are not ashamed to assail with' the shafts of ridicule and the blu'dgeo P n: of'vitupeiatidn the unfortunate men driven from Russian Poland for their political opinions, and compelled by the 'force of calamities over which they have t control whatever, to seek shelter and assistance from'ihia hospitable people of Great Britain. While:however, theseassault.4, directed against refugees wird are ialtogether powerless arid defenceless, may not, for the reasons . already given, be in the smallest de gree rema rkable, they are nevertheless sufficiently ungenerous and basi* to' excite from us the strongest 'expressions of our, indignation, Both in the language employed by the Times of this morning and of Saturday there are derisive allusions to the interest felt by the people, of, this country for the Polish re fugees as an evidence of merely so much sentimen t tality. - And yet a little while ago—strong amongst the strongest, earnest among the most earnest, eloquent among the most eloquent of the advOcates of the cause of Poland and the Poles, • was this same Times newspaper Upon; the consistency of its present conduct we shall not condesCen ( d to enlarge. In reference, however, to the t irratio , nal character o f th e attac k s made upon the exertions of the Association of the Friends of Poland, and especially upon the charitable ball to be given this evening in:the Guildhall of the city of London, we must be permitted to make a few very simple,2bservations. If the Polish Ball Committee were composed of so many public depredators, it yord DUDLEY. STUART were given to the emulation of sthe - couise pursued by Mr. RICHARD Tuarix upon the "QuEzzes trighways—the furious condemnation of the President and the Committee of the Association would be all well and good. But when it is borne in recol lection that the support granted to the ball is alto gether gratuitous, that the money given for the tickets is given voluntarily, and that not one sixpence is " extorted" from the people of this country in aid of the."Asgociation, the fury of the assailants of the charity becomes altogether preposterous. Suppose now; that Mr. JACKSON, or Mr. SMITH, or Mr. TOM- Km were to announce by flaming posters, that they had taken the Hanover-square Rooms, and that on such-and-such an evening there would be given a iul e olie s ,ball and masquerade—would the Times news paper feel itself called upon to denounce the said Mr. JAcKsolt,k Mr. SMITH, and Mr. TOMILINS, as men thieving from the destitute poor of England the Moneys which might otherwise have been distributed iA the shape of soup or wint e r fl ane lli ng ? W e con . ..t....., jeciiire not. And yet when the proceeds of such an entertainment go to support a number of unfortunate refugees >stead of tending to the emolument of JACKSON, &pill, or Toxixnis, the ball is attempted to be written down as a crime against our suf fering fellow• colltitrymen. The Polish refugees are consoled by stale aphorisms on the instability of fortune, but 4 . 1", told not to expect more from England than" the solace of verbal compassion, and the gratuities of a shroud and a coffin. Really the langUage of our Contemporary brings irresistibly to our reeollectiOn the words of the fellow described in dargantua. RABELAIS might almost have written it as a prescient sarcasm upon the enemies of Poland.;; ; , " Quand doncques ie les voirray tumbez en la riuiere et prestz d'estre noyez, en lieu de les eller querir et bailler la-main, ie leur feray ung beau et long sermon de contemptu mundi et fuga seculi, et lora qu'ilz serout roydes roorts, ie lea iray pescher."—Liure I. chap. xlii. Fortunately, however, for the character of our peo ple, for the fair fame of the city of London for the lives of the Polish refugees, and for the credit of humanity, the violent blows administered by the Times have fallen innocuously. They have not only proved utterly ineffectual in damaging the cause against which they were directed —they have even done yeoman's service towards its encouragement. For it will be perceived, from an announcement in another column, that Lord HOLLAND yesterday enclosed 101. to the Polish Ball Committee, declaring that he forwarded it in consequence of the attacks made by our Contemporary. Such is an eloquent and fitting retribution, and one which will be enforced this evening by the brilliant attendance at Guildhall, and the unusual abundance of the sub scriptions. Another railway statement has been given to the public. The York, Newcastle, and Berwick Railway Company have followed the example already set by the London and North- Western, the Great Western, South- Western, London, Brighton, and South Coast, and Lancashire and Yorkshire Companies; and we rejoice to say that, in every instant-', the full and unreserved account of the affairs of the companies has had the effect of assuaging the fears of the share holders, and of alleviating the panic that had pre viously prevailed, and which was attended with such injurious results to all those interested in railway propehity. A knowledge of the true state of facts completely negatived the erroneous statements and calculations that had been put forward, and proved to the public, that there was every prospect of divi dends that would pay at least from six to eight per cent. on the amount of capital invested at present prices, and that at the most moderatelestimates, which were far more likely to be below than above the mark. The natural result has followed, there has been a marked improvement in the prices of shares in all the companies that have published statements of their affitirs, and enabled the public to judge for them selves upon incontrovertible data of their true position and prospects. The statement now under notice—the sixth that has been published, which will be found in extengo in another part of our impression —is remarkable for its simplicity, clearness of arrangement, and the amount of information conveyed. It reflects the highest credit upon the intelligent gentleman whose name appears attached thereto, and proves how well merited was the eulogium passed upon his character and acquirements by one whose experience and judgment in everything relating to railway affairs at tached extraordinary weight to his opinion. When proposing that gentleman for the appointment of secretary to the " Newcastle and Darlington Company" in 1842, Mr. HUDSON then said, " The person I have to propose is one whom I have known a number of years, who is per fectly competent for the office, and who, from his abilities, his industry, and his energy, is capable of discharging its duties in a manner satisfactory to the shareholders." How fully warranted was that cha racter must have long since been manifested to every person brought into communication or connected in business with its object, and the present statement adds additional confirmation to its accuracy. In the present instance the statement of expen diture, &c., is up to the Ist November instant, to which day the total expenditure amounted to 5,375,483/., and the estimated amount of the gross sum that will be required for the completion of the works now in progress, and of the new works proposed to be executed, is 1,869,2281.—making the gross amount to be ultimately raised 7,244,711/., or leaving a sufficient margin for every possible contin gency, 7,300,0001., which amount of capital can be realised by calling up what remains unpaid on the extension shares Nos. 1 and[ 2, and by exercising the powers of borrowing Lto the extent of 1,550,0001., including the existing mortgage co m m i p les any of railway whi c h at present amounts to 722,0731 only. The 330 wiililwatyl:enfromhave which tthheeiy; possession reasonably enough, on the data that are given, estimate a gross income of 20,000/ per week, or 1,040,0001. per annum, which, after pay ment of all liabilities for working expenses, interest on borrowed capital, and rent, will leave a clear aunual profit of 478,970/. This profit will suffice not only to pay a dividend of seven per cent. per annum on the share capital of the company, but will leave a clear surplus income of 76,4701. per annum, to meet any contingency that might arise, and, of course, on a future occasion to swell the dividend. The directors have pursued a manly and straight forward course in declaring that they are ready to take upon themselves the responsibilities they have incurred on behalf of the company in the provisional arrangements into which they have entered with the Newcastle and Carlisle, and /111.ryport and, Car lisle Railway Companies, in the event of the pro prietors being unwilling to accept the leases.

The reasons adduced for their unshaken confidence in the soundness and stability of the undertaking entrusted to their management are of the most con clusive character. We shall adopt their own lan guage, in which they state—" This confidence is founded upon their experience of the steadily in creasing traffic which every year has brought upon the lines notwithstanding the check occasioned by the recent extraordinary commercial depression, and upon their conviction that, as a railway undertaking, the property is wholly unassailable—that no traffic can be abstracted from it by competing lines—and that an: unfailing source of continually improving revenue is secured to it in the inexhaustible mineral wealth of the counties of Durham and Northumber land." It should not be forgotten that the quantity of coal alone exported from the ports of Durham and Northumberland has increased within the four last years 45 per cert., and it is impossible to state to what extent this improvement may be carried when the additional facilities afforded by the formation of the Tyne Dock and the completion of the Sunder- Lind Docks are at the disposal of the company. We heartily congratulate the shareholders on this statement, which proves that the undertaking in which they have embarked is of the soundest de scription, and that it affords prospects of success that can be equalled by few, and probably not sur passed by any similar undertaking in the British do minions. The proceedings that have taken place on the Chartist trials at Edinburgh afford a remarkable con firmation of the views which we have repeatedly put forward as to the superiority of the administration of the criminal law in Scotland. We would ask our readers to compare for a moment the manner in which the prosecution was conducted there with what has been witnessed in our own metropolis, and what took place in unhappy Ireland during the re cent State trials. Everything there proceeded with dignity and decorum, and tended to create an addi tional respect for the majesty of the law. There was no unseemly wronging between counsel for the Crown and the prisoners. The pre siding Judge was not compelled to descend from his more important functions to become moderator be tween the combatants in the forensic arena, neither was he (as too frequently happens to peace-makers) assailed in turn by those whose violence he attempted to restrain. No applications were made, either as of right or of favour, to be permitted the exercise of privileges, without which it was argued (and with too much apparent truth) that a fair and impartial trial could not be obtained, and the prisoners enabled to prove their innocence of the crimes laid to their charge. Every reasonable indulgence that could be desired was afforded. The constitution of the jury panel could not be impeached. A list of those who were to decide upon their guilt or innocence had been served upon the prisoners fifteen days before the trial, so that they had full time to investigate the characters of the arbiters of their future fate. They could not be taken by surprise by the production at the last moment, of evidence of which they had no previaus notice, and which therefore it would be utterly impossible for them to rebut. A list of the witnesses, and of all the documents that were to be produced i❑ support of the charge, hal been delivered along with the jury panel. They were not called upon to plead at a moment's notice to an elaborate indictment of enormous length, worded in the most obscure and doubtful language, which none but those who had made the science of the law their especial study could be supposed to understand. A plain and simple statement, that could readily be comprehended by uneducated men, was also handed to them, which set forth the exact nature of the charge which they were called upon to repel. There was no cavilling about obtaining a copy of the indictment upon paying scrivener's fees, nor as to the number of times in which the officer of the court was bound to read it over verbatim, slowly and distinctly, in place of the abstract which is usually mumbled over. Everything was calculated to inspire respect for the administration of the law in place of exciting the very opposite feeling. Again, in place of the Crown having the first and last word, the statement of the case and the reply, which must necessarily be highly prejudicial to the person placed on his trial, the last appeal to the jury was given to the advocate for the prisoner. When the evidence for the defence or in exculpation, as it is termed in the sister kingdom, was closed, the counsel . for the Crown commented upon that evidence, and was replied to by those for the several defendants. It would, indeed, be impossible to complain of any hardship or oppres sion. The charge of the Learned Judge was digni fied and impartial, wholly indifferent between the Crown and the prisoners. The verdict of the jary was, perhaps, the most remarkable variation from the course adopted in this country, where a simple guilty or not guilty will alone be accepted . It shows the gradations and shades ox crime, and must greatly assist the Judge in deciding on the amount of punishment. Our readers cannot have forgotten the case of Mr. WILLIAMS, who was tried in Dublin recently, and the difficulty of inducing the jury to return a decided answer of not guilty, although their unanimous finding was tanta mount thereto. Here the jury declare " that the charges of conspiracy as libelled were not proven," and they find some of the prisoners guilty of using language "calculated" to excite popular disturbances, although they deliberately leave out the word "in tended," which formed the principal ingredient of the accusation. We shall, probably, on a future opportunity, point out the great advantages attendant on this practice, which a want of space forbids our entering upon at greater length this day. Gladly do we announce the fact of the election of the Right HOD. THOMAS BABILINGTON MACAULAY to the dignity of Lord Rector of the University of Glasgow. It is an honour nobly merited and nobly given —the historian having gained a majority in all the four nations, notwithstanding the powerful influence exercised in behalf of the opposing candidate, Colonel MITRE. We are the more sincerely gratified at the triumphant election of Mr. MACAULAY to a post so accordant with his own brilliant reputation, from the circumstance that, although a member of bar, MAJESTY'S Government, and Paymaster of the Forces, although a statesman of great rhetori cal abilities and of tried consistency, he has long been and is still excluded from taking his seat in Parlia ment. If the labours of attendance in the House of Commons do not interfere with the progress of his great historical work, we would willingly regard the election of Mr. MACAULAY to the Lord Rectorship of the University of Glasgow as an augury of his speedy acceptance by some Parliamentary consti tuency. UNIVERSITY ELECTION of LORD THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 16, 1848, do so from the police or from myself. Any person bear ing arms without this permitsion is to be immediately disarmed. " 9. The legally constituted authorities retain their functions, aid will receive my full support in so much us they act in accordance with the present decrees. " 10. The city of Berlin is made responsible for any damage that may befal public or private property, in the suppression of any armed resistance to the military. " 11. The usual course of public business, of Govern ment and private works, of commerce and industry, is not further limited by the declaratiin of a state of siege. Berlin, 12th November, 1848. " The Commander-in-Chief of the troops in the Marches, General of CavAry, "VON WRANGEL." The announcement of the state of siege was made in different quarters of the town by officers of the staff on foot, escorted by a strong detachment of infantry. The reading of the decree was preceded by three rolls of the drums, at the signals of the drum majors. The announcement was brief, and was re peated at the angles of all the great thoroughfares. In general this announcement was received with laughter or with ironical cheers. The National Assembly immediately declared it self en perntanence, and passed decrees denouncing as guilty of high treason all those who had advised the KING to adopt those proceedings, and also all who should take part in executing them. The Magistrates and Communal Council refused to co operate with WRANGEL, and the constabulary force merely goes on duty pro forma, so that WRANGEL'S troops are kept perpetually patrolling and will be fagged out in a few days. Groups continue to assemble in the streets. They disperse immediately they are ordered to do so by the military, but soon re-assemble at another point. The 13th passed off quietly. On that day the Hall of the Assembly, the Schutzen-guild, was occupied by WRANGEL'S troops without resistance. Groups are assembled in the streets, who are harangued by the Liberal leaders, and invariably urged to abstain from violence. The military tear down all placards; but they are, never theless, circulated throughout the city by boys, who manage to baffle all pursuit. The soldiers have pa trolled the streets for three days and three nights, without being able to make a single arrest. Never was there such a triumph of passive resistance. The affairs has been brought completely to a dead lock, by the prudence and discretion of the Assembly and inhabitants of Berlin. At nine o'clock on the evening of the lath a pro clamation was issued by the town commandant, Gen. l'uomEN, in which it is declared that in consequence of the disregard paid by the people to the proclama tion of General WRANGEL, and the insults offered to the troops, notwithstanding their forbearance, the military should at once fire upon all persons who at tempted resistance, or persisted in assembling or re maining together after their being summoned to withdraw. Even this will fail in giving the KING the opportunity he so ardently desires of wallowing in the blood of his subjects. They will not resist, and they will not remain together after having been summoned to disperse. Their cause must eventually be successful. General WRANGEL and his troops will soon be required elsewhere, for the city of Bres lau and the entire province of Silesia are in full in surrection, and the chateau of Count BRANDENBURG has been burned. The Prussian Staats Anzieger, of the 13th, con• tains the following proclamation of the Ministry of State : "Although his Majesty the King, by virtue of the prerogative of the Crown, has, by a Royal Message, under date of the Bth of this month, commanded the re moval of the Assembly convoked for the constitution to Brandenburg, and its adjournment until the 27th of this mon th, a portion of the deputies of this Assembly, in stead of obeying this ordinance, continue to hold sittings here, and to form resolutions which must bring about the lamentable consequences, and forcibly violate that peace from which alone emanates the general weal. " This lawless proceeding appears the less justifiable in proportion as the charges against the members of the State Ministry are groundless. " Animated by the purest motives, the Ministry of the State, fully determined most conscientiously to carry out the reiterated promises of his Majesty the King, con tained in the proclamation of ti,is day, and of esta blishing that liberty, must most decidedly repudiate every calumniatory attack upon its sense of duty and its views. " The Ministry of State feels called upon by the pro ceedings of the above-named deputies hereby to declare public!) that the transactions and resolutions which have emanated, or shall emanate, from that portion of the Assembly since its prorogation are all and each illegal, and cannot be recognised by the Government of his Majesty the King. The public, therefore, are cau tioned with a view to its own interest, not to be misled by the illegal proceedings of the Deputies still assembled here, into any acts whereby the public order shall be in anywise infringed, abd which will, in no case, remain unpunished. (Signed) " The Ministry of State, " Count VuN BRANDENBURG " VON LADENBURG " VON STROTLIA " VON MANTEUFFEL. " Berlin, Nov. 11t1i, 1848." The Prussian Staats Anzieger likewise contains a fresh proclamation of the Royal Prefecture of Police, stating that as the magistrates of Berlin have refused their cc-operation in carrying out the Royal Procla mation of the 11th of this month, relative to the dis solution of the Burgherwehr, because such an obli gation is not expressly imposed upon the civic autho rities by the Burgherwehr law of the 17th of October) the Prefecture of Police has been charged by the Minister of the Intirior to effect the surrender of the arms given by the State to the Burgher wehr, at cer tain epecified places, at five o'clock in the afternoon of the 12th. The arms are to be deposited by bat talion, and duly numbered, so that on the re-organi sation of the Burgherwehr they may be restored in the same order. The time allowed the Burgher Guard for giving up -their arms has since been lengthened. N. GRABOVV has been to the KING to endeavour to mediate between his MAJESTY and the Assembly— the KING referred him to his Ministers. The accounts from the Rhenish provinces, in the Cologne Gazette ofyesterday, are decidedly adverse to the Royal cause. At Dusseldorf, as elsewhere, the attempt of the Brandenburg Ministry on the rights of the people had provoked the gre.test indignation amongst all classes of the population, whilst the courageous resistance of the Assembly was highly approved. The Common Council and other public bodies had already transmitted congratulary addresses to Berlin, and the popular club had declared its sittings permanent. The accounts from Treves are the same. RECTOR. GLASGOW, WEDNESDAY EVENING. The election took place to-day, and the numbers were— For Mr. Macaulay ... ... 255 For Colonel Mure ... 203 Majority for Mr. Macaulay ... -52 Mr. Macaulay had a majority in all the four nations. POLISH BALL.—We understand such is the interest taken in this philanthropic affair, that the total nutn bar of tickets sold, up to yesterday afternoon, much exceeded the number which had been sold previously to the day of the ball last year. Lord D. Stuart yesterday received a letter from Lord Holland, dated Brighton, enclosing 101. for his ticket, declaring that he forwarded such amount in consequence of the Times' attacks, adding that, if the name of Lady Holland and himself could advance the charity, they were at the service of the Polish Ball Committee. Lord Pantnure also sent 501. for his ticket.--Morning Advertiser. TER SUPERINTENDENT OF THE INDIAN NAVY.— At a meeting of the Court of Directors of the East India Company, yesterday, Captain Stephen Lushington, R.N., now commandieg her Majesty's ship Vengeance, in the Mediterranean, was appointed to the superintend entship of the Indian navy, by the casting vote of the Chairman. GLASGOW . --- CUOLERA.—Another case of cholera was reported yesterday afternoon. The name of the patient is John Campbell, residing in Steele's Land, Port Dundas. Both the parties reported in yesterday's im pression as having been seized, we regret to state, have sines died. Morton, residing in Graeme-street, died yes terday morning at four o'clock; and the other patient, John Gordon , residing at B urn b an k , li ngere d on t ill t h e afternoon, when he expired.—North British Mail. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. The re-election of M. MAREAST to the Presidency of the Assembly by such a large majority has rather damped the hopes of the supporters of Prince Lours NAPOLEON, who now admit that , General CA VAIGNAC will probably have a majority in the towns, but who still contend that as Prince Lours NAPO LEON depends upon the rural population, that is to say upon the ignorant, the credulous, the supersti tious, and the uneducated, he will still have a majo jority. We are glad to find that the matter is brought to this issue, and that 19y the admission of Prince LOUIS NAPOLEON'S own :supporters, he is to be con sidered as the candidate of the unlettered boors, CA vAromAc the candidate of the educated citizens. There is a schism in the club of the Rue de Poitiers on the subject ; many of its members intend support ing General CAVAJONAC. The National Assembly, in its sitting of Tuesday, passed a vote re-establishing the five professorbhips in the College of France which were suppressed in the first days of the revolution by the Provisional Go vernment, and a grant was added for the payment of the past due salaries: The Monitel r publishes a decree postponing the elections for the departments of Calvados, Yonne, Corsica, the Moselle, Charente Inferieure, and Tarn, from the 19th to the 26th instant. The Constitutionnel says that the Lord Mayor of London declined the invitation sent to him by the Prefect of the Seine to attend the fifes of the Con stitution. The Lord Mayor, in his answer to the in vitation, says that, having been only for a few days installed in office, he cannot quit London at the pre sent moment, but that he hopes to be more fortunate on a future occasion. PARIS BOURSE—WEDNESDAY, Nov. 15. THREE O'CLOCK.—The Bourse was steady to-day, but the business done was not extensive. There was no news of any kind afloat. To-day an even bet of 10,000 francs was offered and taken that Louis Napoleon should have the absolute majority of the whole of the votes given at the approaching election. The election, in fact, appeared to occupy the people at the Bourse more than the ordinary business. For the Account, the French Three per Ct nts. have risen 15c.; Five per Cents. have risen 30c.; and the Loan 15c. For Money, the Three per Cents. have advanced 20c.; the Five per Cents. have risen 20c.; and the Loan remains as yesterday; Bons du Tresor are at 22 discount; Bank of France Shares have risen 151.; Belgian Bank Shares not quoted; ditto Five per Cents. are without any change; Spanish Active not quoted; ditto Three per Cents. at 23i; ditto Passive not quoted; Roman have risen per cent.; Rothschild's Re• ceipts not quoted. Exchange on London (30 days), 25 47k; ditto (90 days), 25 40. Railway Shares have generally improved—Versailles (Right Bank), Orleans, and Marseilles, have risen 21. 50e.; Rouens have declined 5f.; Strasburgs, if. 25c.; Havres, Vierzons, and Bour deaux remain as yesterday. S PAIN. Madrid journals of the 9th have arrived. Seven Republicans were shot at ,Huesca on the sth instant. Accounts have been received from Catalonia of the complete defeat of a body of the QUEEN'S troop, 1,000 strong, by the Carlists. MADRID BOMA, Nov. 9.—The Funds, which had bees on the advance fur the last day or two, had re ceded again in consequence of the unfavourable accounts from Catalonia ; the Three per Cents, were done at 18i cash, and were buyers, after the close ; Five per Cents., 9i buyers, sellers. Coupons, 51 buyers. Passive Debt, 31 buyers, sellers. Bank Shares, 40 buyers, 44 sellers. Discount on notes, 1 per cent. Exchange on London, 48 40. GERMANY AND THE NORTHERN STATES. AUSTRIA. The military massacres at Vienna still continue . Several are tried by court-martial and shot daily. Among the latest victims are ROBERT 13Lust and MESSRNUAUSER. The official Vienna Gazette thus announces the death of the unfortunate BLum : " In virtue of a sentence passed by martial law on the Bth instant, Robert Blum, publisher, of Leipzig, con victed on his own confession of speeches exciting to re volt, and of armed opposition to the imperial troops, was, in virtue of a proclamation of Prince Windischgrii z of tee 20th and 23d October, condemned to death, and the execution thereof carried and fulfilled at half-past seven on the morning of the 9th of November, 1848, by powder and lead." He was shot within an hour and a half after sen tence had been passed. lie died with great courage, and tied the handkerchief over his eyes with his own hands. MESSENHATISER, the Com:nander of the National Guard, was shot on the same day. How nobly does the conduct of the French Republicans con trast with that of the Austrian despot. They in the moment of victory decreed the abolition of the punishment of death for political offences, the Absolutist on the contrary, sacrifices hecatombs of human beings to his vengeance, thus betraying his sense of the insecurity of his position. The powerful alone can afford to be merciful. The captain of the guard at the War-office on the 6th of October is to be tried by a court martial for not protecting Count LATOUR. It appears that after he had found resistance useless he withdrew his men to save their lives, much in the same way as the EMPEROR withdrew with the Royal Family from Vienna. The condemnation of this man will be virtually the condemnation of the EMPEROR himself. The civilians implicated in the insurrection are to be handed over to the ordinary tribunals. Count STADION had arrived at Vienna. It was reported in Vienna on the 9th, that the palace at Kremsier had been burnt down. The rumour, however, did not obtain much credit. The Prussian States Anzieger of the 13th, says-- " In Kremsier all the preliminaries were being adopted for the meeting of the Diet. The castle of Kremsier contains about 160 apartments, completely furnished. I❑ the little city itself, also, there is no want of accommoda tion fur the Diet. Three of the Ministers are always to be present at Kremsier, and it is expected that the framing of the new Constitution will be effected in the course of a few weeks. ‘. The General in command, Count Auersperg, has tendered his resignation." PRUSSIA. BERLIN IN A STATE OF SIEGE. Our accounts from Berlin are to the 12th inst., on the evening of which day General WRANGEL, unable to overcome the passive resistance of the Diet and of the people, and failing in his endeavours to exaspe rate them to a collision, proclaimed the city in a state of siege. Even this last coup de force has failed in its object, for although the streets are filled with groups of workmen, there are no symptoms of resistance. Men, evidently belonging to the lower classes, pass from group to group, where excitement exists, saying, " Ruhig, Blut" (be cool, or be quiet)! it is deci dedly not the intention of the popular leaders to at tempt resistance. The troops are nowhere obstructed or insulted. The whole of the garrison were under arms on the morning of the 12th, the Palace being occupied by two battalions of guards, with artillery, and the guards at the Arsenal, and all the principal posts being doubled. The Assembly met at three o'clock in the Schutzen House, and re-elected UNRIcI' as President for the ensuing month. The streets leading to the place of meeting of theiNational Assembly were occupied by workmen, Burgher Guards, and students, all armed, and well provided with ammunition. At six o'clock the state of siege was proclaimed by beat of drum, and also a decree conferring on General WRANGEL unlimited powers, which bore the signatures of Count VON BRANDENBURG, VON LADENBERG, VON STROTHA, and MANTRUFFEL ; and the following ordinance of General WRANGEL "Iu consequence of the decree of the Ministry of State, which declares Berlin in a state of siege, it is hereby ordained:— " 1. All clubs and political assemblies aro closed. "2. By day assemblages of more than twenty persons are not allewed in the streets and public squares, and at night not more than ten. "3. All the public-houses aro to be shut at ten at utht. "4. Placards, newspapers, and other prints are not allowed to b e p u bli s h e d w i t h out th e permission of the police authorities. " 5. All strangers who cannot give legitimate grounds for their stay are to leave the town within 24 hours. " 6. Strangers that arrive armed aro to be disarmtd by the guard. "7. The Burgher Guard is dissolved in virtue of the proclamation of the I I th, with a reserve as to its re organization, whi c h, however, may not take place as long as the state of siege lasts. "8. Duiiug the state of siege only such civilians are allowed to carry arms who have received permission to DE NMARIi. The Copenhagen papers of the 2J, publish the ad dress of the States relative to the affairs of Schleswig, It breathes the most warlike tendencies. The Danish Government is said to have insisted on the immediate dissolution of the newly installed con joint Government of Schleswig-Holstein. Sir HENRY WYNN, the English Charge d'Affaires at the Court of Copenhagen, had declared that he saw no means of extrication from the present complicated state of affairs; it appearing to him that matters remained precisely in statu quo ante bellum. A courier had left Copenhagen for London, for the purpose of receiving further instructions from Viscount PALMERSTON. ITALY. The Concordia of the 11th inst. says that the martyrdom of Lombardy continues. The municipal authorities of Milan had resigned, being unable to satisfy the rapacious demands of the Imperial hordes. The Governor of Mantua had refused to recognize the armistice granted by FERDINAND. The report of artillery was heard a few days ago in the direction of Piacenza. The surrounding villages are all occupied by Austrian troops, and arrests and executions are the order of the day. Advices from Rome to the 6th announce the ar rival of a courier from Ferrara on the preceding day, with dispatches for M. Rossi, on receipt of which a Council of Ministers was convened. At six o'clock r.M. General Zuccui, accompanied by M. GOMBA a deputy, and the son of M. Rossi, left for Ferrara and Bologna post haste. GREECE. Letters from Athens of the 29th October (two days later), announce the formation of a coalition Ministry, composed of M.M. KANARIS, A. LONDOS, A. MAU ROMICHALIS, BULGARIS, KALLIPIIRUNOS, RIIALLIS, and C. KOLOKOTRONIS. ROYAL ACADEMY, GOSPORT. -- Her Majesty the Queen and his Royal Highness Prince Albert have been graciously pleased to become the patrons of this school, which was for many Years patronised by his late Ma• jesty King William IV. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEW CITY, QUARTEI? 7U 7 Ma; P.. The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was buoyant, and prices were firre. Sales full 6,000 bales. The Railway Shat e Mark' t w,..s good. The accounts received from abroad are not of com mercial interest generally, and politics engross more the attention of parties writing home. The opinion upon the proceedings at Berlin is still that the King contem plates further encroachments upon the cause of liberty, and that his success will strengthen the other potentates. With very little speculation going on, the Funds pre sent an aspect of considerable firmness, and there is a further tendency towards improvement. We have noticed this inclination of the market for some time past, and but for the state of political affairs cur anticipations would doubtless softer have been realised. Capital is so abundant, and confidence in the resources of England so strung, that the surplus 'Toney must ever find its way into stock when no other more pro fitable medium offers. Railways (specially, where guaranteed, might be expected to offer more in ducement, but there seems to be a " fashion" about these things, and what our own experience has often before shown us, we may expect to see again, viz., an increased number of buyers, the less advantage there is in purchasing, that is, the higher values have ascended. The statements of different lines, published within the last few weeks, might serve to convince the most seep • tical of the soundness of the railway system, as a whole, despite certain irregularities, while the relief that must be experienced in the money market from the abandonment of so many lines, Mr. Hudson's statements furnished to• day affording farther evidence, should not be lightly estimated, since nothing more de teriorated the market value of shares than an inter minable string of " calls," and the keeping open of ca pital accounts. Consols have improved to-day to 86i 4. One Bear, with rather a large account open, said to be 100,0001 stock, has been " declared," being unable to pay his dif ferences, and we hear that there are other of the minor fry—for even the party just alluded to was not an old member of the "house"—who have compromised. We suspect that these gentry are brought down more by their share than their stuck spe culations, for a gradual variation of two and a half per cent. during an account should not bring down any one who had even moderate means at command. It is the last feather that breaks the camel's back, so having lost seriously at former periods, the further trang amounts now pa 3 able suffice to " put an extinguisher" upon the parties. Industrious as they have been to depreciate the property of others, but few will commiserate them now they have lust their owe, and sse must in justice say that the older members of the Stock Exchange are not by any means so liable to the censure as many of the parties admitted during the last year or two, some of whom, although their securities are but just released, two or three years' bail being re quired, venture upon business that experienced men would shrink from. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 854 to 86k, and the Three per Cents. Bank Stock is firm at 188. Exchequer-bills have been 365. to 41s. premium. The Foreign Bonds are very quiet again. Portuguese Four per Cents. 24-1, and Spanish Three per Cents. 23i. Mexican, 211. Brazilian New, 70. Peruvian are firm, at 34 to 35! Dutch Four per Cents. 69i to 70k. The arrangements for the settlement of the Share account have been unfavourable to some of the r ailways, which are rather more offered. This, however, is a mere temporary matter. Eastern Counties, South- Western, Great Western, and the York lines are cheaper. ndland and North-Western steady. _Brighton dull, and also the foreign lines.
