(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) It is now admitted on all sides, that a part of the Irish community, hitherto much opposed to a liberal Policy, are becoming sensible of its inevitable progress, and final establishment. Even those partisans, on whom the torpor of the approaching change has not se:zed, and who yet retain elasticity of spirits enough to speak f ree l y t h e i r sent i ments , b egin t o sa y, th a t th e future condition of this country must be very different from what it ever has been. While the Liberals, who have struggled to put down the ascendancy by steady constitutional means, are enjoying a sort of ovation, preparatory to the true solid enjoyments of national triumph. Indeed, everything seems to favour this expectation, as will appear from the facts adduced in tins epistle—not to mention the more numerous in stances to be found in the newspapers of the country. And though, as stated in a former communication, there are some difficulties to be overcome before the consummation of our happiness can be effected, still the resources available to a well di'sposed Government, are numerous enough to insure its final triumph. In the first place, every man, no matter what his Prejudices may be, who is capable of understanding the real state Of society in this country, will join in asserting that Toryism is overthrown, and nearly an nihilated I By which I mean to say, that those prin ciples acted - upon by the Tory faction are condemned ai,d abandoned by the great mass of the nation, and deemed untenable even by the few who hitherto bat tened on their existence. • Again I assert with equal confidence, that an 11 nnest Ministry has the opportunity of establishing v'hig principles, in despite of the difficulties arising out of the deteriorated condition of the community, durin g a long period of misgovernment. I shall illustrate both these propositions by a few kcts, selected from passing events. Mr. Shaw, Re eohier o f Dublin, and one of the Members for our University, a man possessing too much intellect and feeling to allow himself to be dragged the whole length of th e ,c,‘Tbonian bog—to the very bottom of which his more heavy and brazen partisans are determined to sink._ -has put the strongest section of his party com pletely in the't:lrona. He has done this in such a way as to show, drat, not only all those who have followed the example of the Dublin Corporation since Earl Mulgrave-',' arrival in this country, have been guil t y of something like the crimen lcesce Majestates, out that those who p ,,,,,ued a different course are " in the right." His apology, presenting the new Lord May or to hi s E xce ll ency , for t . l ie " omission" on the Part of the late Mayor and the C„.rporation, was a full confeision of the allegation just stlated. It speaks t rumpet-tongued t o b o th parties—to iJte Orangemen and irreclaimable Tories it announces a serious mis take from their " omission"—while to the Liberals it Proclaims the possession of the vantage-grou nd on Which they stand. Surely six millions of his Ma- J,esty's loyal subjects will not forget this inciaent ? unly think of bodies politic that used to boast of their elelusiv e l o y a lty, declining to pay the usual homagc ,t? th a t Ki ng ' s represen t a t ive who landed on our shores t he harbinger of conciliation, peace, and prosperity Can it b e that they have already thrown off the mask, keepi ng to the letter the Orangeman's oath, which pro mised allegiance to the descendants of George the 111 . o nly so long as they sustained the ascendancy ? Is the banner of rebellion already unfurled ; and will the r espectable Protestants of Ireland, having legal expec tations and interests at stake, longer support a faction w ho, but for the mitigated code under which we no w have the happiness to live, might be found guilty of more than constructive treason ? They will not do so: . .defe c ti on is already in the camp, and if Government wilt but pursue the even tenor of its way, with the firmness exhibited during the last Session of Parlia the next will have established the happiest change for the United Kingdom which can be recorded in her history. Mready has the county of Westmeath shown symp toms uf convalescence from that " maturity of corrup tion whis"th ceases to be contagious." The High She tiff' had been respectfully solicited to convoke a meeting Of th e count y -, for the purpose of framing an Address t ei the Lord Lieutenant. But this sapient functionary I ;cf.tried - a request of the respectable inhabitants of his bailiwi c k— as likely-, forsooth, to interfere with public t ranquillity. Now mark the consequence upwards of ', e venty gentlemen signed a requisition for a meetin g , 0 do th at w hi c h t h e fi r st local officer of the Executive le ad declined. " What I seventy gentlemen," says a Co nservative hireling I " Do they represent the wealth, ii telligence, and influence of the majority of the county ?" Verily, Mr. Sciolist, we arc not so mu ch ac q uainted with th e statistics of Meath as to be able to answer Your question more categorically than by stating , th at she requisition contained the names of mile Noblemen, Jive Baronets, two Honourables,four Members of Par tatnent, and one Bishop, besides twenty. other g-ritle hen, whose knowledge, property, and mfluence,• a:e iVe Jess than those of their titled and honourable fel thw"replisitionists. If these altogether do not possess ',tangible matters and moral influence you require , of Yours you can furnish a counter - list of those friends de Yours who do. Here, then, are two notorious inci ilts clearly demonstrative of the declining state of T ory faction. Mr. Shaw's testimony is invaluable ; Iti ligh at the Sheriff's dinner lately in Dubli n, he ti l ls taken some pains to assure his friends that his con htlet, on thi s occasion, evinces no vacillation in his t' of e litics, much less is it to be construed into a symp tom 41 . the possibility of his ever deserting his p art y . Nor e the W es tmeath requisition just mentioned , and the meting r h el d i n consequence yes t er day, less strong in ,‘ °v itig the altered tone of society in Ireland. , come now to the consideration of the resoureo to an honest Ministry in working out the true P il kiples o f Reform. It may be well, however , to Ma te what th es e irinciples are, as regards Ireland , be fore, I enumerate the means of carrying them into effect. I s nall do so, in the language used by the late Doctor j) Ve, ten years ago, in his ninth letter to " A Gen "an in England," because it is more eloque nt and a uthorit at i ve t h an an y a t my command,—and because the compliance with a part of his suggestions wit hin the poli Pelicd just mentioned, is some proof of the good icy of immediate compliance with the whole. In h e wering the arguments of those who seemed to fear ir consequences of innovation, lie says—" But then, Si Sou change the system, you begin to make conces sto us ; and w h ere can you stop ? I answer, you may th e l'' as you stop in England, when you have satisfi ed 4,.enlightened portion of the community ; when you aye satisfi e d th e good sense of the country ; when you st o done what, the public interest requires, you may you P th en , an d not b e f ore .

PARIS ASSIZES-(WEDNESDAY.) TRIAL OF THE BON SENS AND QUOTIDIENNE, FOR COPYING P.R33/ THE SUN" OF THE 7TH OP AUGUST FROM LAST IN IGfiT'S GAZETTE. At. the Court of St. James's, the 28th day of October, 1835, PRESENT, The King's Most Excellent Majesty in Council. It is this day ordered by his Majesty in Council, that the Parlia ment, which stands prorogued to Tuesday, the tenth day of Novem bor next, be further prorogued to Thursday the seventeenth day of December next. FOREIGN-OFFICE, OCT. 2.5. The King has been graciously pleased to nominate and appoint Sir Edward Cromwell Dishrewe, G.C.H., now his Majesty's Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to his Majesty the King of Sweden and Norway, to be his Majesty's Envoy Ex traordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to his Majesty the King of the Netherlands. The King has also been graciously pleased to nominate and ap point the Honourable John Duncan Bligh, now Secretary to His Majesty's Embassy at St. Petersburgh, to be His Majesty's Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to his Majesty the King of Sweden and Norway. The King has also been graciously pleased to nominate and ap point John Ralph Milbanke, Esq., now Secretary to his Majesty s Legation at Frankfort, to be Secretary to his Majesty's Embassy at St. Petersburgh. The King has also been graciously pleased to nominate and ap. point the Honourable Francis George Molyneux to be Secretary to his Majesty's Legation at Frankfort. abandon Repeal—and to become hearty supporters of the Melbourne Ministry, thus supplying the most abundant source of strength in a great national struggle. This strength consists of, at least, six out of seven millions of people, including not merely the great body of the people—the labourers and working tradesmen, and yeomen farmers, " our country's pride" —but the higher class of persons, few of whom, since Emancipation, interfered in public matters, or gave their full concurrence and approbation to any Govern ment. By this class, I mean that great mass of poli tically inert matter, always intent on their agricultural or commercial pursuits, and caring little about con tending parties, except so far as their manoeuvres afford entertainment for their hours of relaxation—that in dependent class, which Swifl would call " prudent men," solely intent on their own interest—who are ready to chant with Cromwell, or cry with Charles, when the contest is decided. The state of the regis tries here, shows how many of this class are now ac tive in the Liberal cause ; and the O'Connell tribute, next month, is likely to afford further proof of their impatience of Tory policy. There is another power ful accession, not hitherto reckoned upon. Many of the Irish ascendancy party, over whom Sir Robert Peel's candid declarations, not less than the other signs of the times, have diffused some light, are be ginning to understand, that, if Sir Robert again became Premier by any possibility, it could not be under such circumstances as would uphold the ancient regime. These, you may be assured, think of ratting; under the conviction, that come what will, things cannot go on as they used to do ; and that, to retain their fair chances of patro nage, and their natural position in society, they had better conform to the necessity of the times. But there are other favourable appearances—an approximation to a perfect union and good under standing between Irishmen of the higher and better informed classes, is likely to take place. The recently ' published letters of Dr. Murray, Catholic Archbi shop of Dublin, and the Rev. Dr. Hincks, an ex- Fellow of our University, show how such an under standing and union may exist, compatibly with the civil and conscientiously-religious principles of the members of both Churches. Doctor Murray has dis tinctly assured his fellow-subjects that there is nothing in the religion which he professes, that can militate with the happiness of English and Irish men of every persuasion ; but that, on the contrary, its ministers arc bound to inculcate universal charity and good-will, without the slightest interference with men's temporal interests. Doctor Hincks's letter is _ equally impor tant at this crisis. Besides laying down those broad principles of ecclesiastical polity, understood by those who sincerely practice the reformed religion, he shows clearly, by logical and Scriptural argument, that the opposition. to Lord Morpeth's Tithe Bill was con trary to common-sense, to the true interests of Pro testantism, and to the spirit of Christianity. I mention the letters of both these gentlemen, not merely because they deserve special attention just now, but because I know they speak the feelings and sentiments of a great portion of the best-informed classes of so ciety in this country—both Catholic and Protestant. From all these circumstances, it must appear that Whiggism is in the ascendant on this side of the Channel ; and that, though there may be difficulties in the way of an immediate amelioration of the affairs of this long distracted country, the present Government has powers of the most ample description to surmount them ; and to bestow on us those blessings, peace, and prosperity, to which we have ever been strangers in our native land. But, above all, be it remembered— and the Liberal press should impress on the friends of Government, and on Government itself, these maxims —that no favourable disposition of the people—no talents or influence of individuals—no extent of the knowledge and civilization of the nineteenth century — can be half so effectual in aiding the Whigs to com plete our political redemption, as the practice and full development of those theories and principles, which they have themselves so honourably clung to, through good and evil report, and from which neither interest, power, nor pleasure, have hitherto tempted them to deviate. Let them only persevere in carrying into effect that part of Doctor Doyle's suggestions, not yet complied with—let them rescue millions from an ha bitual state of famine and nakedness—thus rendering property secure, and giving to capital and industry a resting place; let them no longer permit a quarter of a million of men to retain amongst them the ex clusive possession of honours and emoluments—let not one class of religionists be bound to bear almost exclusively the burden of two Churches—let them, in fine, satisfy the good sense of the country, and they will not only find all Ireland quick and zealous in as sisting them, but they will promote the strength, wel fare, and glory of the United Empire. They have now in their hands the means of accomplishing all these objects, amid—" lime genera officiorum qui per sequuntur, cum summii utilitate magnam sibi adipiscentur, et gratiam et glortanz." MEETING AT NAVAN TO ADDRESS THE LORD LIEUTENANT. Last I'Vednesday a meeting of the Nobility, Gentry, and Freeholders o: the County Meath was held in the Court house of Navan, for tlle purpose of preparing a congratu latory address to his Exceliatcy Earl Mulgrave, on his ap pointment as Chief Governor of that country, and on the measures which have characterised his Excellency's Govern ment since his arrival in Ireland. The Court-house was thronged with spectators, and not only was the door beset with individuals anxious to obtain a hearing, but the line of street opposite the Court-house was filled with as dense a crowd as that by which the interior of the building was filled, The Marquis of Headfort was in the Chair. Resolutions expressive of public confidence in the present Administra tion, especially as evidenced by the appointment of Lord Mu'grave, were proposed in addresses of great ability, by V.,'„ S. Crawford, Esq., M.P. ; Mr. S. Winter ; M. L. Chaps: an, Esq., M.P. ; Lord Killeen ; and by Mr. Dalton, step-son to the Marquis of Headfort. The last named gentleman, in the course of an olottnent but brief address, said he wished that the individual who had expressed himself of opinion that there was no loyalty in the county Meath, except what appertained to his own particular class, were here. How would that personage be surprised to find there assembled the highest and the lowest —the great landed proprietor and the humblest tenant, the Catholic and the Protestant—all met together, not for a factious purpose, not to embarrass the Government by agi tation, but, on the contrary, convened and meeting for the sole purpose of suitably addressing . his Majesty's represen tative ?—( Hear, hear.) Political and prwdial disturbances have ceased—agitation has ceased. But notwithstanding all his exertions, Lord Mulgrave has not sueceeded in con ciliating the faction, They might forgive him for being a Reformer, because every roan professes to be a Reformer now--(Laughter)--but they can't forgive him what, in their eyes, is an unpardonable fault—his popularity-- , (Cheers,) I cannot (proceeded Mr. Dalton) conclude without ex prlP,ssing a wish, equivalent to prayer, which I am sure will find an teeho in every bosom here, Long may Earl Mul grave continue to govern eight millions of people, not as Pro testant and Catholic—not as serfs and oppressors—not as a discordant mass of conflicting materials—but as the sub ject,,i of one common nation, whose happiness is not mu tually inconii.stent ; but who, to use his own words, are to be raised to that pitch of prosperity of which they are susceptible, by the equal administration of equal laws. The resolutions having been all agreed to, an address founded on them was unanimously adopted. Th e mee ti ng was afterwards addressed by Dr. Mullen, (secretary to the County Liberal club,) Mr. Ford, the Rev. Mr. Tiiite, and Sir Francis Macdunuoll, The two first mentioned geritivmen animadverted in the strongest terms of indignation on the II aNclacity" exhibited by the High Sherif, in refusing to convene tha meeting, upon the ori- ' ginal requisition which was presented to hiM. The Sheriff „. a ,:eneatedly groaned during the delivery of these addresses with all intensity and hP4rfiness which is peculiar to an indignant Irish audience. Mn)Jell gave a glowing picture of the Orange or g ies w hi c h are pe : riox#POY tI . PIP" bratcd in the Summer -hill Lodge, and in which 1 - he (1.4041 Mr. Fowler ;(theislipriff), the Hon.

MACDONNELL, se conded by L A CILEI.44 P i SMITH, Esq., a resolution was passed, conveying to the iNtaxcht i tis qf Jicadfort, in the most flattering terms, the thanks of the meeting nor ffor his presence and dignified conduct in the chair 4 9 0:44 ncea - - sion, but for his .u,n,i(o i rmk Aqicacir of the rights of the people, The meeting tten adjourned in the most .pees#c vd • orderly manner. AN ARTICLE ON THE ABOLITION OF THE LIBERTY OF THE FRENCH PRESS. After some preliminary formalities, the article inculpated, taken from The Sun, was read as follows : " The French Papers just received supply us with copies of the Bill, prepared by the minions of King Louis Phillippe, for the extinction of political liberty in Prance. A more atrocious Bill than that which relates to the Public Press we have never read. It is•such a concoction of tyranny—such a monster of ingratitude--such a daring violation of the most sacred rights of men, as never before disgi•aced or degraded France. The infernal Lettres de Cachet, the most despotical articles of the Code Napoleon, were the perfection of freedom compared with this monstrous progeny of a Citizen Sovereign. The daring wickedness of Louis Phillippe knows no bounds. He flings aside the mere appearances of a regard for a charter which he solemnly swore to maintain, and not content with a personal violation of it in the case of the prisoners of April, he now conies forward and demands its abolition from the Representa tives of the French people. We now see clearly that nothing Short of another Revolution can preserve the shadow of civil liberty in France. The Press is now abolished ; for we know the Chamber of Deputies too well not to feel confident that it will comply with any wish which be may think proper to ex press. There is baidly a single Member of that Chamber who is not a tool of the Government. Corruption has been busy among the Deputies, and for the sake of France we regret being obliged to add, never was it more successfully employed in the cause of infamy. A majority of the Chamber is pre pared to vote on all measures proposed by Government, exactly as suits the pleasure of the Minister of the Interior, and his colleagues. " It would be a waste of time to enter into the details of these monstrous measures. If they are passed into laws, as we are confident they will ; and if they are peaceably obeyed, as we are sure they will not; . all we add is, that Frenchmen are only fit to be slaves. If France submits to the laws which are now proposed for her coercion, she deserves to be made the footstool of every despot in Europe. Where now are her patriots of July ? Where now are those chivalrous assertors of Liberty, who registered vows in heaven for the erection of altars to freedom wheresoever tyranny raised the standard of oppression ? Have they, too, been found susceptible of the taint of corruption? The National Guard—the people--are they also indifferent to the possession of those rights, to obtain which their fathers deluged France with the blood of her So vereign, her Nobles, and her Priests ? No : political freedom ean never be abolished in France." M. Plougoulin, Avocat-General, then rose, and insisted on the necessity of repressing this new mode of insulting the French Government through the English press. "Is it not humiliating," said he, "to find that we are thus maltreated by foreign journals, to see France itself accused of servility by them, and the Chamber of Deputies represented as betraying its duty ? After the speech for the prosecution, M. Cauchois Lemaire, editor of the Bon Sens rose and said :—" It is not without some surprise, not without wonder indeed, that I appear at this bar. It is so unuusual to me. For eight years now have the Crown laws ers spared me : and- during five of these eight, which have kept both men and the Press so busy, I have re mained ever at that post where personal responsibility is no fic tion, without having been once cited or prosecuted for a political offence. After this long truce with a most quarrelsome parquet (body of Crown lawyers), there comes a menace of fine and imprisonment, which strangely refreshes and brings back my memory to a time when I too paid my share of that tribute, which the King's Treasury and his gaoler raised from the liberties of the press. Years but light in number separate me from that time, but this interval is an age in events, of which one was a revolution. At its completion I had hoped that my task of contributing to the emancipation of the press, by my sufferings and my perils, was over. I may add, that the very personage who thus, by a strange convulsion of cir cumstances, has become my accuser, himself thought, after the revolution, that the day of peril was over for the public writer. I preserve in my archives, as one of my most precious auto graphs, together with other letters from friends since risen to be Ministers, one in which the present Advocate-General an nounced himself as the historian of my humble efforts for the liberty of the press. The little works which accompanied the note, spoke in favour of this liberty, and of principles which the Hon. Gentleman now thinks it more prudent to keep at a distance. Instead of your former eulogium, M. Advocate- General, I have now to endure your lessons, elegant mayhap in the form, but direly rigid, especially if the jury should think fit, as the Advocate-General seeks, to transform his advice into reality by sending me to prison. The words of my accuser fill me indeed with anxiety. What ! have I been all at once guilty of what he pleases to call an attentat, less direly punished under the old than the present system of law ? Have I lost sight of my long habits of prudence, and thus come as an old man under the fangs of the law, which I had ever the prudence to avoid and escape when young. Have I been so silly as to confound licence with liberty, and insurrection with opposition ? The time, you must own, is ill chosen for such a change. But no—l have not changed. Since 1815, I have remained ever in the service of the self-same principles. It is not I, who have changed ; and it is wonderful to think, that I who professed, and pleaded, and developed these principles with so much impunity under the restoration, should now be called up for what can be no crime, save in the requisitions of a Crown Lawyer. If I have not changed, something else must have done so. The tolerance of Government must have become singularly narrow, and its force militant, its instruments singularly and increasingly op pressive. If my journal has not made one step towards revo lutionary principles, and it certainly has not, then the Go vernment which has prosecuted it must have retrograded far ther back than the restoration. One need not make use of merely their eyes and good faith to see this. The Government lays violent hands on the constitutional guarantee of the Press, and of course seizes us for defending them, as, nevertheless, the writers of a conciliatory journal. If I read you some ar ticles of that journal, you would be amazed at the stupid zeal which inflames the guardians of the reigning system to prevent a translation from the English, though side by side with other articles proving our moderation." M. Cauchois Lemaire here explained that he was about to quit the place of editor. " I may abdicate the functions of editor," he said, " but not that of a journalist. The word may hurt, and may prejudice over-loyal cars against him who bears it, but lam proud of the title. I have fulfilled its mission ►with delight and love, whether at liberty, or in prison, or in exile, whether the press be free or enslaved. Yes, after a re volution, which opened to me other paths of ambition, I con tented myself with the humble profession of a journalist. It is to me a sacred mission, the more sacred for the perils which surround it. Like all other human things, this profes sion has its ills, its advantages, its false brethren, and cor rupt members. Where is there a trade in which rogues do not thrive? where an army without so►he cowards? or where, with every respect for the court, is there a band of judges and lawyers in which a false sod venal conscience does not lurk ? Yet still it is a noble profession, the in. struiocut of eivilitation, 4nd the proteptor of all that is most precious in humanity, Yes, gentlemen of the jury, I avow myself a journalist, a ► journalist of opposition, not one from spite, envy, or ambition—ono who has refused the gratifications of ono, and the delusive offers of the other, The jury, however, may answer me by adopting the opinion of the Advocate-General, and may decide, as in 1828, that this court is but the antiehamber to a dungeon, Be it so, Yet it is no less strange that I should suffer under Louis Phi. Lippe ► King of France, the compliment of the penalty incurred previously, for having saluted,' somewhat prematurely, Louis Philippe, the Duke of Orleans, as future King. I dreamed then of what I find realised now ; but alas ! how, and in what spirit realised ? Surely my exclamation of disappointment is no PrimP: Yet if yP thirth it so: gentlemen of the jury —if ye should be' determined to send rue, along with so many brethren of the Press, to prison, I shall not demur, but merely ask one favour this may he shut up in the same old cell, which I may thus oppupy twice tinder twp reigns, which I had expected to find somewhat different from eaelt other, There I may at least meditate with advantage upon what is nailed . political J . ustiee, and upon revolutions which turn singularly into re-acttons," M. Bellard then spoke for the Quotidienne—and the Advo. cote-General, again rising, adopted a very singular argument —urging that, however the jury might be lenient upon M.

MONEY MARKET. In consequence, it is stated, of the depressed state of the Exchequer-bill market, the Bank Directors, at the weekly meeting yesterday (Friday) determined to extend the period for loans upon approved securities until the 15th of Janu ary next, so as to enable the business of the year to be ter . _ minated without any difficulty, on their part, being t).. rown in the way. At a late hour, the following Ir;tice was issued : " The Governor and Company of the do hereby notice, that the advance ; 'Bank of England upon the deposit of stock, bills of exchange, Exchequer bills, East India bonds, and other approved securities, :tpulated to be repaid on the 20th of November next, 161 : 4 on application, be extended to the 15th of January ne-.:t, at 31. 10s. per cent. per annum, the advances so renew a to be for a period of not less than ten days from the date 'of such renewal; and that applications for loans upon the deposit of the above-menti one d secur iti es w ill con tinue t ;'be received; such loans to be repaid on or before the said 15t 1 4. of January next, with interest at the same rate, and to be for sums of not less than 2,0001. each. " Bank of England, Oct. 29." The promulgation of the above notice produced but a slight improvement in Consols, but the market altogether was firmer and wore a more favourable appearance. ;con sols closed at 911 to for money, and 914 to for the Account. Exchequer Bills also improved a little, the last •price of them being 10s. to 12s. premium. India Bonds were last marked at par to 2 premium. The settlement in the foreign market, which took place to-day (Friday) has passed off without any difficulty, except a slight pressure for money in the market for Cortes bonds. This being the day for the settlement of all time-bargains in them, a large amount was necessarily delivered for pay ment. Until the 16th of November they will only be dealt in for money, and on that day they will cease to be marked in the brokers' lists under that denomination, and all who shall have omitted to send them in for conversion before that period will be excluded from the right of receiving the interest due upon them to the Ist of November. Very little real business was done, but the different securities left off firm at the following quotations, with an indication of improvement :—Spanish Bonds at 431 to ; Active 421 to ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 55f to 57 ; Colombian, 31i to ; and Dutch 21 per Cents., 55 to f. DOVER, OCT. 30.—After the late account of the serious illness of the Duke of Wellington, we were de lighted to see his Grace on horseback inspecting the pro gress of the works going on at our pier. A public dinner is intended to be given at Grantham to Mr. Handley, M.P. for the Southern divion of Lincoln. THE EMPEROR NICHOLAS AT VIENNA.--The Swabian .Mercury of the 20th inst., has the following of the 19th from Vienna :—" Our Literary Journals are filled with poetical compositions relative to the visit of the Em peror Nicholas to the tomb of the Emperor Francis. After having paid a just tribute of regret a.lid tears before the tomb of a friend, the Emperor knelt before the coffin of his aunt, the Arch-Duchess Elizabeth, first wife of the Emperor Francis, and sister of his mother. He prayed with fervour at the tomb which contained the remains cf one so beloved. He then drew near to the coffin of the Duke de Reichstadt, and the expression of his coun tenance at that moment cannot be described. It seemed as if the Monarch in that silent visit would have willingly abdicated his earthly crown in order to devote himself to his religious and celestial meditations." MlNA.—Whilst a steamer was waiting at Port Vendres.to convey General Mina to Barcelona, that Chief set out from Perpignan, without even acquainting his family with his intention, and entered Catalonia via Serre. The Reformers of Canterbury have invited their respected representative, Lord Albert Conyngham, to a dinner, at the Lion Hotel, in that city, on the 10th instant. —Kent Herald. His Grace the Duke of Devonshire has been re siding at Hardwick Hall during the last week, where he has had the pleasure of witnessing the various improvements made during the summer. The grand Fide staircase in the entrance has been lined with splendid tapestry taken from Chatsworth, the colours of which appear as brilliant now as when they were new, making the hitherto whitewashed walls speak, almost as with life, of the intrigues and dis asters of by-gone days. The shading of a white charger is so easy and natural, that only the touch itself could con vince the beholder that it is not a most exquisite painting. His. Grace returned to Chatsworth from Hardwick on Monday last, and left the following day to proceed direct to Italy, there to remain during the winter season.—Derby Reporter. WESLEYAN REFORM.—The cause of Wesleyan Reform, says the Blackburn Gazelle, goes on prosperously. The Conferential despots have goaded their victims to such a degree, that even the most passive Members of the Con nexion consider it no longer a virtue to yield obedience, but. a duty they owe to themselves and to their children, to combine, in one compact body, to release themselves from the web of tyranny, which priestly ambition and domina tion have contrived to weave around Them. We understand that surveyors are now actirely en gaged on the various parts of the line proposed by the Great Northern Railway Company. A. detailed survey of the whole, comprising an extent of country upwards of 250 miles in length, is to be completed, and the plans am) sec tions made and deposited with the Clerics of *he Peace in the several counties through which the railway will pass, on or before the 30th of Ngyili. - iber, being less than five weeks from tin cmulonoement of the operations.

CANTEKUURY, FRIDAY AIORNING.—ThiS chase, which excited intense interest throughout East and West Kent, came oil on Thursday afternoon kat for a Sweepstakes of 10 sous. each, with 501. added by the inhabitants. The distance marked out to:: the chase was about three miles, a very heavy soil, and the line well in tersected with breaks and hedges, offering oltstaeles of 'AO inconsi derable Aitliculty to the most experienced riders. "...he starting point was at Rocking's Farm, the course running from thence to Bullockstone, through the Strood and linden:4'mi Lands, on to Bedsworth's Orchard, terminating in the Eighteen-acre Field ; ad joining King's-road, at name Bay. The following started : Mr. Dowley's b. g. by Shaver, dam by Woodman, s . yrs ; Mr. Sepfort's b. m. Parasol, aged; Mr. Firth's gr. in. Laurestina, by Arbatress, aged. Mr. Doyley rode his own horse—white and black cap • Mr. J. Mason (the winner of the grea t S t. Alh ra ' s) Parasol —blue and black cap ; Mr. Powell, Laurestina—grfen and black weight, 12st. At Bullockstone Mr. Dowley, miv . aking a flag, got out of the line, when the running became severe between Parasol and Laurestina, the latter beating by someth.kg more than a length to the surprise of the field, and to the evide i t astonishment of young Mason, who up to the last leap had a decided superiority. Lattres tina being a remarkably strong horse derived advantage from the nature of the soil. We understand that 11Ir. Ilc,uldsw•orth intends training his north country horses at Newtod, near Manchester, where some of then have already gone. The others, as we stated a fortnight ago, will be trained with the Duke of Richmond's stud ; and the Sherwood stables will be kept on for two or three years for brooding foals only.
