Miss Julia Bleadon made a most favourable impression on her auditors. Her voice is a soprano of considerable power and compass, and of much flexibility and sweetness, and it has been highly cultivated. In Mar liani's celebrated cavatina " Stanca di Pin," she had an opportunity of exhibiting the extent and compass of her voice, of which she knew well how to avail herself. We have never heard this cavatina better rendered. In her duet with Miss Rainforth, and in her trio with Miss Rainforth and Miss Rowland, she was admirable; and in the second part she sung a ballad by Stephen Glover with great taste and sweetness. We congratulate Mr. Howard Glover on the great suc cess achieved by his pupil last night. It re flects infinite credit on her preceptor. In the course of the evening Mrs. Glover recited Dryden's ode of " Alexander's Feast" as she alone can recite it. To hear Mrs. Glover recite this sublime lyric is a treat to which we are not often ac customed. We would recommend the conductors of concerts to consider whether it would not re lieve the monotony of these reunions, if recitals from some of our best poets were occasionally introduced. Judging from the experience of last night, the experiment would be most successful. Mr. Gerhard Taylor gave us a fantasia on the harp, and Miss J. Tayl: r (who possesses one of the richest, and fullest, and most gushing of con tralto voices) sang the " Non pia niesta " in most admirable 5131 e. This young lady bids fair to become. one of the fir: t contralto singers of the day. Miss Rain forth, Mr. .%llen, and a host of oWer talent, also as fisted at :his en o of the most delightful concerts a e have ever attended. CHRONICLE.—What epitaph shall we write on the tomb of United Germany? For unless present appear ances deceive us, the hopeful scheme, which has been struggling into e x istence during the last nine months, is already seized with the pangs of a premature dissolu tion. Prepare the pall, summon the mourners, toll the great bell of that ancient cathedral pile which has wit nessed the coro nation of a long li ne of Imper i al poten tates! The spirit of German unity is passing away. Ever since the Germans of Au s t r i a d eclared aga i nst an organic union with the ir ywestern kinsmen, it bas been manifest that the realization of the orignal scheme, in the perfect form and stately proportions which it had assumed in the hands of Dahlmann and his coadjutors, had ceased to be within the sphere of possibility. As we have before observed, the step was, in our opinion, one imperatively dictated by a just appreciation of position and resources of the Austrian Empire. Austria has a vital principle distinct from that which animates Germany, and she requires an in dependent corporeal organization; and the attempt to link together the two bodies with an inorganic, yet indissoluble, ligament, could never have been crowned with lasting success. New Austria and New Germany might have sprung into existence as the Sia mese twins of the European family, but they could not long have maintained so inconvenient a connexion. In evitable as it was, however, the secession of Austria has hastened the crisis which we long ago foresaw. Her name, whilst she continued to mix in the federal councils cheered the heart of many an honest South German, who regarded the successor of the Cle3ars as the natural head of the Teuton race, and lulled the misgivings of many more, who hoped, by keeping the system in equilibrium through the reciprocal a gency of the two great Powers, to preserve a substantive independence for their own local Governments. Her retirement changes altogether the aspect of the case. Eliminate Austria and it wou ld be idle to imagine that, if Prussia is to remain Prussia still, any adjustment of the sy s tem, however ingenious, any combination, however skilfully contrived, of t h e lesser Powers, could supply an effectual counterpoise to the preponderating weight of that greati kingdom. Th e question reduces itself to this—w i ll trermany consent to be Prussianized , in cons iderati on of the grandeur and elevation to which s he may .aspire when cloth e d w i th the vas t military resources which Prussia can pl ace at h er disposal? This change of c ircumstances necessitates, of course, a corresponding change in the personnel o f t h e 0- n t ra l Government. The Austri an Minister, w h o was the soul of the Archduke Johns Cabinet, and whose pre sence there enabled the Austrian Govern meL influence t to exer cise a powerful, though tacit, over its proceed it:gs, and to keep open a door to the adva ii t eges o f a subs( quent union without encumbering itself with formal engagements, mast now retire. The diitc.i o !, of the inov, went devolves upon men in the Opp os it e i ntorest, Prussians by extraction, or subj ects of the Rhen i sh States, whose ideas of national unity are sober, unsew tiinent-1, aial practical; and who a re ready t o l a b our with might and main for the consolidation they have at heart, without allowing themselves to be diverted by local jealousies, and without consulting th e hi stor i c past, except so far as its light will enable them to see their was' t h rough tlic future.

Mr. D. was then the owner of two freehold farms and other property to the value of 10,0001 or 12,C00/. Owing to some unsuccessful business transac tions, in which he unfortunately became concerned, he was in a short time completely divested of the whole of his valuable property. Subsequently he was advised to institute a suit in Chancery for the recovery of part of his patrimonial estate, in which a large sum of money, supplied by the kindness of two faithful old servants (one of whom has since become his wife), was speedily expended, without, however, attaining the object de sired; and in consequence of his inability to pay certain costs, on a motion made on the part of the de fendant in the suit, he was cast into pri son, his wife and two young children having in the meantime been forcibly ejected from a humble dwelling on the estate, in which Mr. D. had taken shelter after the sale of the last remnant of his effects, in utter helplessness. After being detair.ed in York Castle for a considerable period, without being able to pay the costs necessary to the further prosecution of the suit, he was compelled to take the benefit of the Act for the Relief of Insolvent Debtors , w hereb y lie necessaril y relinquished all claim to the property he had sought to reco ver. Mr. John Davison is no w living ut Muldrea boro%on-Tees, without any means of supporting him , elf and family, and during a portion of the harvest mow! of the pre sen'. year he has been glad to obtain even occa sional e mployment as a labourer on a farm adj( ining the rich broad lands so recently his own.

J. Brown, Trinity pilot of this port. The ship left Rotterdam early in November with troops, and after running down the English Chancel, when between Beachy Head and the Isle of Wight, the cholera broke out on board, and four soldiers, the carpenter, and cook, speedily fell victims to the disease. On returning to the Downs she was sent by the Dutch Consul to Standgate Creek, where the deaths subsequently increased to four teen. Several who had recovered from the attack of cholera, amongst them the chief mate, have been at tacked with virulent small pox. The accounts from China give an unfavourable view of the market for British manufactures, cotton yarns and long cloths having both declined in price, and the large quantities known to be on the way were ex• voted to depress the rates still further. Spanish stripes had rather improved, but lorg ells had declined, and camlets were without change. Cotton, iron, and cochi neal had all fallen i n va l ue . The demand for tea had been good, at an advance of one to two tat Is.

The proceedings thus far do not enable us to foresee before what jurisdiction the trial will take place. The decree of the Chambre d'Accusation and of the Court of Paris does not appear to us to be an obstacle to the case being eventually sent, for public safety, or for a cause of legitimate suspicion, before some other Court of Assizes than that of the Seine."

VIENNA, Dic. 14.—The Wiener Zeitung of this day contains an address of the el-ctors to their representatives at the Frankfort Parliament, in which they protest against the division of Austria. The Breslau Zeitung contains the following rela tive to Hungary, to which all eyes are now anxiously turned : " BARTFIELD, DEC. B.—To•day Field Marshal General Schlick entered the city with flying colours, the music playing the national anthem. The appear ance of the city was perfectly tranquil, and the Aus trian troops were well received. The tri-colour, which had been hoisted on the Senate-house, was torn down by the soldiers and destroyed. To-morrow the army proceeds to Esseries, and on the following day will occupy that city, either peaceably . or by main force. General Schlick, before cressing ti Hungarian f ron ti er , i ssu ed the following proclamation : " Soldiers I —Field-Marshal Prince Windisch gratz has committed to me the command of the Gallician army, and the honour has therefore been conferred upon me to be your leader. The object of our marching to Hungary is the restoration of peace and order. Those peaceful inhabitants who receive us like brothers must be met with friendliness, but war to those who a c t o ff ens i ve l y, t h ey shall be made to feel the power of our faithful swords. " lIVe love our Emperor. Justice is on our side. We belong to the brave Austrian army, and all will be made plain to us. " Head quarters, Dacia, Dec. 2. " ITALY. An extraordinary meeting of the Chamber of Deputies of Rome was held on the Bth instant. The President, M. Sturbinetti, informed the Assembly that he had convoked it in order that it might hear the report of the deputation sent to Gaeta. M. Fus coni, one of its members, then rose, and said— " On reaching the Neapolitan territory, an inspector of police having asked us if we were repairing to Gaeta, we replik din the affirmative. He then told us that he had been ordered not to allow the deputation to enter the Neapolitan territory, and that the prohi bition even extended to the Senator of Rome. We requested him to give us his answer in writing, which he objected to, saying that such an act would exceed his instructions. The deputation then asked to be al lowed to forward a letter to Cardinal Antonelli, Major Domo of the Pontifical palaces, to apprise him of the object of its mission, with a request to reply to it immediately. A Neapolitan geadarms brought us back the answer of the Cardinal, in which he stated, that the Holy Father wrote of his own accord from Gaeta, on the 27th ult., the motives of his temporary absence from Rome; that he could not consequently receive the deputation, but that he continued to pray the Almighty to bestow Ills mercy on Rome and the State. The deputation not being able to accomplish its mission returned to Rome." M. Fusconi next read those two letters, and the President having invited the members who had any objections to make to ascend the tribune, M. Panta leoni rose and said," "We have a duty " To perform, and we must prove our selves equal to the circumstances, however serious they may be. I accordingly propose to the Assembly to ap point a committee of five members, who, after inquiring into the situation of the country, shall adopt, in conjunc tion with the Ministry, measures necessary for the secu rity of the State." The Prince of Canino opposed the appointment of a Committee, on account of the fatal delays it might be attended with, and then moved the establishment of a regency, composed of two laymen and a clergy man. The Minister Galetti supported the proposition of M. Pantaleoni, which was carried, and the Assembly elected as commissioners Messrs. Sturbi netti, 1 usconi, Rezzi, Sereni, and Lunetti. The President having invited them to meet immediately, the Chamber adjourned. The most perfect tranquillity prevailed at Bologna on the 10th instant. On the 9th, General Zacchi wady, ozcd Ulu I,tts... is, 1.1. t274.4......r.110, ter of War, at Rome : " I retained the command I at first intended to resign, because having hitherto succeeded in maintaining order and tranquillity at Bologna, notwithstanding a thousand provocations, I consider it needful for the cause of order to preserve it some time longer. Your instructions merely tend to excite insubordination and revolt among the troops. You appear to delight in this, as also in at tacking absent men, which is an act of cowardice. But I hope we shall meet one of these days, when I will tell you my mind more categorically, and bring you to ac count for your insolent conduct." Letters have beers received from Naples to the 11th. The ultimatum of the English and French Governments as regards the affairs of Sicily had been accepted in all save one point, which was the esta blishment of a Sicilian army. Mr. Temple and Ai de Reyneval were determined to insist on its esta blishment, and the King of Naples was equally de termined, it is said, to refuse it. TURKEY. LANDWEHR IN CONSTANTINOPLE. The deliberations of the Council of War, for the formation of a reserve for the Turkish army, though not yet concluded, hare gone so far that a landwehr and reserve system is:to be introduced on the model of the Prussian; the sole difference will be, that as the Turkish standing armylis composed of Mussulmen only, the reserve and landwehr will be limited to them. By this arrangement, the standing army, with the landwehr and reserve, will equal the Prus sians in numbers. The point which has had much weight in the army expenditure, the introduction of a Prussian land wehr and reserve system, is considered most compat ible with the slender finances of Turkey. Whether this decision will lead to the departure of Colonel Von Kurzkonski, of which so much has been lately said, appears questi MORTALITY in the METROPOLIS.

The complexion of the commercial news from India by the Overland Mail may, ou the whole, be con sidered favourable. The lowness of the stocks of goods at Calcutta and Bombay had tended to keep up prices, although the transactions had not been on an extensive scale. Since the termination of the Hindoo holidays, business at Calcutta h a d Pot resume d i ts former activity, while at Bombay there appears to have been a fair de mand for cotton piece goods. Yarns were steady, but not in much request. Owing to the warlike preparations in the north of India, and the impending hostilities in the Punjaub, there was a great disinclination to part with money on the part of the native shroffs and bankers, and a tightness in the money market was rather ex pected. Government securities had consequently de clined. Some forged notes of the Bombay Bank had been detected, which had occasioned a temporary run and some inconvenience, but it was soon seen that there was little cause for alarm, and the affair subsided.
