Were the journalists of England, without esl eeption, to participate in this fashionable derision it would be indictitive of a decay in the intelligence pf the nation, and would be derogatory to the character of the British Press. For ourselves, we have no synl pathy in thees petty ebullitions of jealousy. For our selves, we look beyond the waters of the channel with feelings of, awe rather than with emotions of ridic. For ourselves, the spectacle which is at preset visible- in the palace of the National Assembly is ss spectacle more awful than frivolous, more divine than lowly, more suffused with the spirit of eternity aid grandeur, than of meanness or evanescence. That such have been the sentiments with which We have regarded the progress of affairs in France since the revolutionary explosion of February we need only refer, in testi mony, to the comments contained in The San since the downfal of the Orleans monarchy. Without lane interval of hesitation we have maintained the dignity of the political events which have transpired in the French capital. We have never truckled to the vogue of a fortnight ; we have never con descended to caricature the principal actors in the Revolution; we have never viewed the agonies of the Republican crisis as the fit subject for the indulgence of mirth or for the exercise of witticism. Because Aitacso had gained glory as a philosopher we did not think ourselves justified (for that reason alone) in travestying his acts as an administrator; and the result of his career as Minister over the joint depart ments of War and Marine proved that in so doing we had done wisely—his brief exercise of authority over the maritime and military powers of the Re public being scarcely less successful in its operation than the glorious and memorable administration of Csaurr—of CARNOT, who exalted the science of war into a system of philosophy. Again, while almost every lip Was curled and every hand raised in scorn at the advent of LAMARTINE to the chair of ,Government, simply because LAMARTINE had batind:his brows in his youth with a garland of poetic bay, we were by no means reluctant in regarding the fame of the bard and of the statesman as, in an eminent degree, compatible. We appreciated those noble ejaculations with which, on the 4th of March, he had himself responded to the deputation of students headed by M. EDWARD DUPONT—" As to this epi thet of Poet which my enemies are perpetually hurl ing at pie, in the hopes of causing my destruction, I accept it, gentlemen; and if it be the will of PROVI USZICJI that some few rays of glory come to illumine the last years of my life, I shall still 'rejoice to - find myself guilty of the cfiine of poesy ! That, then, are we doing at this very mo r"nt, gentlemen, what is our country doing at thisll very day, if it is not the most sublime of ac zi t m soe try " We remembered, moreover, that ble Was a statesman, and yet that CANNING wrote vers es i n the Anti-Jacobin. We remembered that Eatkisses was a statesman, and yet that ERSKINE - wrote love-songs When a subaltern. We remembered was a that MAZ ANIX statesman and penned sonnets ; Wa s that BELLARMINE a • statesman and wrote epi grams ; that Itivro x was a statesman, and sung the marveLs of Paradise anclPandetinonium in the l 2 book s of his " celestial epic." Beari n gsefacts in recoll ec ti on we were not disp ose d to consohe c.r L AaIART INE as an i nwrae ti ca bl e man so l ely because he w as the first to ittrodtsce the `°ode" into the poetic literature of hi s country, irwe are to believe th e di ctum of the greatest Of French eritics now tiring, JuLEs J 'NIN. And that oar opinion was very far rem ove d from rashnessn d has been shoWn by the glorious results of hi s three months' adminisCisation, those three months in which he abolished royalV, inaugurated the Republic, esta blished universal suVrage, abrogated the laws inflict- ing capital punishments for political offences, created rraw s 2 Garde Mobile, which on the :23d of June proved tafigidition of the &volution, and for the good of *or,-land sacrificed the glory of his popularity I:Nr ann eitlvaffo4 of a dictatorship. Appfvem the men the mse l ve s, the m e r e s of the Itek , ublic have been mentioned in 1 •4" ~.. forms or :terms of contumelious reproach. The mode in which the proceedings of the Legis lative Chamber itself is conducted, the cries of " Li cloture," the ringing of the President's bell, thedemands of precedence for the tribune,—every de tail in the system has been referred to in the language of ridicule. The planting of the trees of liberty—the singing of the iliarseilliise, the chaunting of Mourir pour la Patrie, the " fraternizing " of the ouvriers in blouses, the bourgeoisie in the uniform of the National Guard, the Garde Mobile, and the regular army—the rattle of the rappel—the phraseology, the costumes, the official routine, the casual amusements, the private interviews and public demonstrations of the French Republicans have been employed as the themes of burlesque and epigram, of poetical pasquinade' and deliberate misrepresenta tion. Abstracting somewhat from the ephemeral character of the festivities which have hitherto marked the progress of the Republic, we do acknowledge that there is something too solemn in the joy of a great nation rising to proclaim its independence to admit of our indulgence in any coarse and idle sneers at such harmless tokens of popular exultation. Re cently the evidence of happiness in the political sensibility of the French people has extended from Paris to the departments. The Pas de Calais has been the scene of these rejoicings. A splendid fete, half civic, half martial, has just terminated in the noble city of Boulogne-sur-Mer, which, taken in connexion with the late festivals of the metropolis, is indicative of the sentiments which inspire the thirty millions of the French population. Amidst these spectacles of deliberation in the National As sembly and of enthusiasm in the streets, a grand structure is rising up—the structure of the Re publican Constitution. Legislators, like actors, when the metropolitan houses close for the season, proceed to fulfil their pro vincial engagements, and, as tragic actors occasionally amuse our provincial brethren by appearing in farce, and as low comedians on such occasions are permitted sometimes to act high tragedy, so do the stars of the legislatorial firmanent not unfrequently appear in the provinces in a line of character perfectly different from that in which they have acquired their fame on the metropolitan boards. The great Protectionist leader bath followed the example of his histrionic brethren. Lord STANLEY is out on a starring exhibition, and commenced the first of a series of provincial engagements on Thursday last at Manchester, where he officiated as Chairman of the Liverpool and Manchester United Agricultural Society. It might have been expected from the Protectionist performances of this accomplished artiste on the metropolitan boards that we should have had a repetition of those bitter denunciations of the principle of competition with which he was wont " to split the ears of the groundlings" in the chapel of St. Stephen ; that remembering the wonders of Tamboff, he would have again protested against the iniquity of extending the range of rivalry against which the British farmer has to contend ; but whether it is that free-trade principles are en demic in Manchester, and that Lord STANLEY from inhaling the air has caught the infection ; or whether, like histrionic stars, he takes advantage of his pro vincial engagements to " case-harden " in a new character before venturing to face a metropolitan audience in it, certain it is that the speech of my Lord STANLEY, on Thursday, was altogether in support of the principles of free trade and unlimited competition, and that never were the agriculturists more severely rated for their ignorance, their bigotry, their wilful neglect of their own interests, and their obstinate opposition to all improvement, than they were by the leader of the party of the "Farmers' Friends." It appears that for many years past there have been separate agricultural societies for Liver pool and for Manchester, which are now united, and that this is the first meeting of the united society, In alluding to this union Lord STANLEY, after stating it as his opinion that at the earliest stage of agricultural improvement small societies may be best, as being more calculated to arouse the spirit of rivalry and competition in the first instance, thus proceeds : " But the spirit of rivalry once excited and brought into action, the extension of the range of the society, ix. my judgment, tends to increase the amount of the stimulus, and the extent of the competition.—(Hear.) It brings the competitor into cln tact with his neighbour. and into a range of an infinitely superior description to that which it was in his power to attain in his own less limited range; and his views and feelings being thus raised, lie makes efforts towards a higher scale of excel lence, and those efforts must ever be succeeded by the attain meat of that object which the competitor has in view." Could IticuaßDConneN himself have laid down the advantages of free-trade and unlimited competition more broadly than my Lord STANLEY has done Apply these principles to the question of free trade— " The extension of the range of the spirit of rivalry tends to increase the amount of the stimulus, and the extent of the competition, and by raising the views and feelings of the person so entering into such competition, induces him to make efforts towards a higher scale of excellence, which efforts mast ever be succeeded by the attainment of that object which the competitor has in view." An excellent and a truthful principle, but one which we should scarcely have ex pected to find enunciated by a Protectionist leader, inasmuch as it completely answers all the Pro tectionist arguments. Competition produces efforts towards a higher scale of excel lence, which efforts must be successful; but protec tion avowedly checks competition, therefore protec tion prevents the attainment of a higher scale of ex cellence. We thank the Protectionist leader for his syllogism, and recommend him to follow out his own principles (whether of competition or protection) to their legitimate consequences. His remarks towards the conclusion of his speech are such as when made by RICHARD COBDEN (for they are almost all bor. rowed from RICHARD COBDEN), during the course of the Anti-Corn-law agitation, used to draw down upon him the: indignant denunciations of the Protec tionists as a libeller of the farmers, and a sower of strife between landlord and tenni " Though much has been clone, much remains to be done," says my Lord STANLEY—an admission and a complaint made by RICHARD COBDEN any time during the last ten years. Every one remembers the great outcry which was raised against Mr. COBDEN by Mr. TATTON EGERTON and the Cheshire squires on account of his observations on the ill-drained rushy farms of that county ; we find the same complaint, in nearly the same words, made of the same farms, at this meeting, by my Lord STANLEY, in the presence of Mr. TATTON EGERTON, who by his silence admits the truth of the accusation. llow indignant was Mr. GEORGE BANLES against the members of the Anti-Corn-law League for venturing to insinuate that a landholder might neglect his duty. What will the Cursitor Baron of the Exchequer say to the more than insinuation of Lord STANLEY—" While on the one hand justice requires I should thank those landlords who have liberally come forward to assist their tenants in their attempts to improve, and shown so great a desire for their welfare and the prosperity of agriculture by their presence this day, I must also express my regret that we have not the pleasure of seeing a larger proportion of the landed proprietors of the country." In fact, in every sentence he utters, my Lord STANLEY bears testimony to the truth of some thing that the members of the Anti-Corn-law League have said, and, to crown the whole, he unwittingly admits that it is owing to what they have done that we are indebted for the present improved state of our agriculture. "I am bound to say that, within my own knowledge and observation," says my Lord STANLEY, " there has been a general improvement of farms, in the ge neral agricultural system, in the science adopted; and in the practical application of the science to the land on the part of the tenant-farmers in Lancashire and Cheshire, there has been a very great and marked 2 . 91- proventent during:the course of the last twelve years." It is now just about twelve years since Mr. VILLIERS first commenced agitating in Parliament the question of the repeal of the corn-laws. We congratulate the members of th e A n ti-C orn -l aw on th e : t es ti mony thus tardily borne to the truth of their principles and the success of their efforts, by the most talented and the most eloquent, but the most reckless and the most unscrupulous of the - ir former opponents. --- RAPID IMPROVEMENT OF MACHINERY. Last year wo had a Talking Machine. This year we have had Mr, Chisholm Anstey. .Gracious PQedness ! what shall we have next year ? L:L Punch. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. At noon the result of the election for Paris was officially declared in front of the Hotel de Ville. It was as follows : Electors inscribed ... ... 400,804 Electors voting ... 240,657 Louis Napoleon ... 110,752 Fould 78,891 Raspail ... 66,963 The above are returned. The following had the greatest number of suffrages after the successful can- didates : Thort4 ... 64,480 Cabet 64,375 Roger (du Nord) ... 61,482 Edmond Adam ... 54,507 Benjamin Delessort fils 49,337 Bugeaud ... 48,590 Emile do Girardin ... 26,885 Although RAUPAIL, the Socialist candidate, is, no doubt, a mistaken man, yet he is as undoubtedly a man of principle, and sincerely believes that the adop tion of Socialism would be for the benefit of his country. But with regard to DELESSIIRT, the chief of the spy department of the police under Louis PHI.' LIM!, to BUGEAUD, the gaoler of the Duchess of BERRI, the butcher of the Rue Transnonaine, the or ganizer of the massacres of Africa, and now the de voted !legman of HENRY V., the chosen of the Legi timatists, the slave of the parti pretre, and to Emus DE GIRARDIN, the destroyer of ARMAND CAR REL, the associate of the DUJARRIERS, Ds BEAUVAL- LoNs and DB CASSAIGNAGS, the jobber of peerages, who, JUDAS-like, has accepted the Republic solely for the sake of betraying it ; they are mere self-seekers, and it is with unfeigned delight that we find their names at the bottom of the poll. The following article on the elections, which ap pears in the National, may be supposed to speak the sentiments of the Government : " MM. Bonaparte, Fould, and Raspail have been elected. This result has little surprised us, and does not give us the least uneasiness. It is, however, useless to deny that it does not respond to our wishes and our sympathies; but, such as it is, we accept it as the mani festation of universal suffrage, and on that ground it is entitled to our respect. Not that we regret that the majority of our fellow-citizens should have given their votes to candidates whom we reject; but, as we said on a former occasion, our political education is not complete; opinion has its failings, and the public mind its errors. Let us not feel irritation at the kind of vertigo which carries away people who were but as yesterday called upon to perform one of the most difficult acts of political life—let us rather seek, by pointing out the right road, to prevent their falling for the future into the false paths into which they have for a moment been led. Who will ever be made to believe, fur instance, that M. Raspail, the apostle of doctrines rejected by the general senti ment of social preservation, represents the opinion of the majority of Paris, with M. Fould, the man of figures, the high priest of crown pieces, the ardent and fanatic adorer of what is called the haute Banque t And Louis Bonaparte? He looks higher still; he represents a political idea, does he not? What idea? Apparently that which he has found in the historical cocked hat of his uncle. Supposing there had been one, you may be sure that he had only taken the hat. " We are not at a loss to explain to ourselves that in structive emotion which seizes men at hearing a famous name, or that fanaticism which is inspired by a re nowned memory. The feeling proceeds from a noble principle ; but it is blind, and for want of a man it some times happened that it is placed on a mannequzn. In the cruel leisure which was imposed upon him by the Holy Alliance, Bonaparte said, when at St. Helena, a grey great coat, and a cocked hat raised on the end of a cane would in an instant raise the whole of Europe.' We now see how truly this remark is verified, at least as far as regards France. ,Happily opinion is change able with us, and soon recovers from its surprise. Be fore a fortnight is at an end, the grey greatcoat and the cocked hat will be on the ground, and nothing left stand ing but the cane." The return of M. RIVET for Lyons is confirmed, and that of Count MoLe for Bordeaux is announced. For Lisle the contest between Louis NAPOLEON and Colonel NEGRIER is very close. The following was the state of the poll according to the latest ac • counts : N6grier Louis Napoleon 15,048 De Genoude General LEFLOT, the Ministerial candidate, has been returned for Finisterre. It is said to be the intention of the Bonapartists to get up a grand triumphal procession on the occasion of the entrance of Loma NAPOLEON into Paris. This intention has created serious alarm, which has not been decreased by the collection of mobs at the Porte St. Denis, at the Bourse, and in the Rue Rambuteau, which have been dispersE.d by the military. Considerable rein forcements of troops entered Paris on Wednesday evening, and they are all kept in barracks ready for action. It is considered that the result of the Paris elections will lead to some change in the Ministry, and both Red Republicans and Reactionaries are making offers of assistance to General CA VA ICI NAC. The Reds re quire the admission of LEDRU ROLLIN and FLocoN into the Cabinet, the abolition of the 4.5 centimes ad ditional impost, and the appointment of Ledru Rollin-nominated commissiaries to the prefectures of the various departments. The Reactionaries require the appointment of MM. DUFAURE, LEON nit MALES mix, and General BEDEAU as Cabinet Ministers, and the adoption of what they call a moderate line of policy, the meaning of which is, that General CAVAIGNAC may be nominally President, on condition that M. TIIIERS is Viceroy over him. The Irish rebel DOHENY has arrived in Paris. These papers publish the following account of the disturbances at Elbosuf : " The agitation which has been apparent for the last few days amongst the workmen at Elbauf began on Monday last to assume a more serious character. The cloth dyers in that place had been in the habit of re ceiving 35 sous per day of eleven hours, and by work ing extra hours, at the rate of 25 centimes per hour, they brought it up to 2f. or more. Since the promulga tion of the law fixing the minimum of the day's labour at 12 hours, several of the masters made known to their workmen that they would continue to pay them 2f. per day, but that they must consent to work twelve hours; if they objected to this the wages would only be 35 sous as before the revolution. As to the weavers, they before the revolution worked I3i hours a day. After February the day's labour was reduced to 11 hours, without any diminution of wages; and now the ut the same for pay 3 manufacturers demand 12 hour s ' wor k w i t h out making any change in the pay men t. A ccor d ing to this last ar froarnglT hours ent asthe workmen beforewo u l d the receive evo I r they did hours. "On Saturday last many of the manufactur e rsll in formed their work men th at f rom t h e Monday f oll owing they they would be exp ec t e d t o wor k twelve hou rs. them submitted, others l e ft, an d ot h ers were heard m t o o t. utter threats against their masters. Monday passed over pretty quietly until seven o'clock in the evening, the time when the day's work was finished at the old time of eleven hours, when large crowds of the workmen began to assemble, and some of the youngest amongst them were excited by the more ill-disposed to throw stones at several of the manufactories where the extra hour's work was continuing. The disturbance, thus commenced, was not long in gaining strength ; the crowds increasetl and went to several of the principal establishments, where the glass was smashed in, and tho most violent threats were made use of against the masters and against those workmen who had consented to work for tbo twelve hours. "The National Guards were called out and instantly assembled. At the same time the delegates of a club, known under the name of the Soci6l4 des Travailleurs, went to the Mairie and offered to restore order if they were allowed to act. Their services were accepted, but it was soon seen that they had not the slightest influence, and they were requested to retire unless they wished to expose themselves to be treated in the same manner as the rioters. "The authorities displayed the greatest firmness, and the National Guard, who had assembled without the rappel being beaten, were most zealous in their exer • tions. Measures of repression wero instantly adopted, and the rioters fled in all directions before the armed force. At nine o'clock the streets wero cleared, and some of the National Guards wero allowed to retire. "The prefect had sent off an express to Rouen, when a body of troops were put under orders to bo ready to march at a moment's notice. This display of activity and force proved to the badly disposed that they had no chance of success in causing any further disturbance in a town the prosperity of which depended on the pre servation of order. " A judicial inquiry has bee❑ set on foot, and several of the ringleaders have been arrested, and there is every reason to hope that the disorder will not be renewed. " A proclamation has been issued by the prefect, ad dressed to the workmen, pointing out to them the folly of their conduct, and assuring them that all acts of vio lence would be punished with the utmost severity of the law." The National Assembly, yesterday, agreed to the sth, 10th, 11th, and 12th articles of the Constitution. BOURSE—PA-MS, THURSDAY, SEPT. 21. THREE O'CLOCK.—The Stock Market opened with firmness to-day, but towards the middle of the day there was a sudden panic, in consequence of a rumour that disturbances were expected to night, and that General Cavaignac had resigned.

In The Sun of yesterday we briefly mentioned the fact that, on the 18th, Frankfort bad been the scene of a fearful insurrection, which had not been suppressed until several lives had been sacrificed. We now proceed to give further particulars. The German Parliament met at ten, and was guarded by Austrian and Prussian soldiers, from 2,000 to 3,000 of whom bad arrived from Mayence. Great quiet prevailed during the reading of the protocol of Satur day's proceedings. SerurrneTu reclaimed against the protocol. An important omission had been made. Whilst they had debated about according the Ministers permission to speak, and were in considerable doubt on the subject, the President had warned them not to be led away by their passions. These words had led to further altercation, and the President had then added, " I will not let my right of debate, and of stating my opinion, to be taken from me." This last declaration ought to have been protocolled.--Agreed to at once by the President. SCHODER reclaimed also. After the majority of the two Committees, or at least its reporter, HERR Muni, had declared the withdrawal of the second part of the Committee's motion (i. e. for the imme diate continuation of the war, provided the King of DesolA Ric would not immediately enter into nego tiations of peace with the Central Power), HERR SCHLEER, as far as he remembered, had declared that he and his party would take it up. He demanded that this declaration of Scaemut be included in the protocol. —Agreed to. BLum had two reclamations to make :-1. The declaration which he made on Saturday from the rostrum had been inaccurately noted. He had said that against all Parliamentary rule, and against the usages of that Assembly, his party had been forced to vote simultaneously on two distinct motions.— (The discussion was here interrupted for a moment by the beating of the generate without, in conse quence of an attempt made by the people to expel the Prussians from the city.)-2. Ileum objected that it was stated in the protocol that a twofold division had taken place on a certain motion, but it had not been stated that this had resulted from strangers having mingled among the members ; and in the only official document that recorded the pro ceedings of the Assembly, this ought to have been included. The PRESIDENT did not object to Burnes reclama tion, but endeavoured to extenuate the offence thus committed by strangers. Beusr said he, in the name of his party, could aver that strangers were seen sitting on the same benches with Members of the Right, and were seen to go away from those benches, and one, whom he could mention by name, was the Duke of AEGUSTENSURG. —(Loud cheers from the Left, and still louder from the people's gallery.) The PRESIDENT declared if any further interrup tion ensued he would clear the galleries. "WIGARD combated this, and had words with the President. After mutual recrimination the matter dropped. Heirruesar complained of the President having declared a majority, after the sense of the House had been taken by rising and sitting, which eventually proved to consist only in two votes.—(The Presidial board here seemed at a nonplus.) The fact, he said, should be entered on the protocol. However, SoIRON thought that it could not be pro tocolled, but by way of explanation he would say that perhaps fresh Members had in the meantime come in —(Cries of " Oh, oh !")--or perhaps some had voted differently.—( o h, oh.) B ERGEz would have it entered upon the protocol that Herr vox GAGZRN had presided the whole of the morning, but when HECI ESCHER requeste d a had given up th e P res i dent ' s chair, and The PRESIVENT said he h a d s i mp l y left the h h a e d ar v in o g ted h . e chair because he had intended to speak on the question of the armistice. He then read a paper to the effect that the Duke of AUGUSTENDURG had not been exactly on the Members' benches, but in a part of the House where he could not possibly be mis taken in the division. He read an announcement also from SCIIMERLING to the effect that, after HER MANN had resigned his commission to form a minis try, the Administrator had prevailed upon part of the ex- Ministry, provisionally, to resume office until a new Ministry should be formed, which will be shortly the case. In the meanwhile, SCHMERLING would take the War, Foreign, and Home depart ments ; DUCHWITZ, those of Finance and Commerce. BERGER said, he had seen that Austrian and Prussian troops had been called in to guard the Par liament. He had heard that artillery was stationed in Bockenheim. He did not see this was necessary. Now that they had a Provisional Minister of War, he would ask him why they were surrounded with bayo nets ?—(Cheers from the Left.) SCIIMERLING at once came forward. The events of yesterday, he said, were known to most of them. The Senate had found it necessary, after the havoc committed on Saturday, and the threats held out in the people's meeting of yesterday, to address the Central Power, praying it to give that extra support to the National Assembly, which it was incapable of supplying on its own part. The troops that had ar rived in Frankfort at 3 A.M., had only been called in at the request of the ;Senate of Frankfort, for the defence of the National Assembly. The Senate had declared that the defence of the National ;Assembly was the affair of the empire and of the Imperial Ministry. The Imperial Ministry had not scrupled for a moment to respond to this call of the Senate :- it was th e h o li est duty of the Central Power to defend the Assembl y. —(e d re e s f p en o c n o sib o le f Imperial Ministry , therefore, make a specific decla rationfound ready that it and thereforetono Oh, oh," from the Left.)

Then foll owe d an allegation against the President for having offended against sec. 36 of the order of business. VISCIIER moved that the names of the Members who have announced themselves on any question, be' read aloud by the President, and slowly enough for the Members to be able to take them down.—Amply supported by the Left and Left Centre, and discussion granted. A thundering noise was now heard at the door of the Assembly; all was, in an instant, in commotion. Reports flew about of a stone having been throNisa in at one of the windows. The Members quickly re covered their composure. A few of the mob who had passed the outer door were ejected. The Pre sident rang his bell, amid cries of "places places," and the debate wa s resume d. Cl amour i s st i ll heard outside ; something again disturbs the quiet of the Assembly; Bunu's voice is heard calling to the Right benches, "N o come d y h ere !" VISCHIIIes motion was carried. EISSNMANN said he had received letters from Hungary, and he could assure them that the Germans in Hungary were not only put to the sword, but were even burnt and impaled. He would bring the affair speedily before the Assembly ; in the meanwhile he entreated the :committee which had the consi deration of his motion to be prompt in giving their report. SIMON then moved that, as the resolution passed by the National Assembly on the 16th ult. was not to the mind of the people, and that, as the National Assembly was bound to speak to the people, not in diplomatic language, but in such language as the people understood—(Laughter)—the National Assembly should draw up a popular exposition of its motives in acting as it had done. Urgency disallowed. Nothing resulted from the debate. The House ad journed at a quarter to two, r.st. While these things were going on within the House the insurrection was progressing without. At one o'clock barricades were commenced in all directions, and at two o'clock the troops, having received re inforcements from Mayence, commenced to act - against the insurgents. Their fire was replied to by a brisk fire from the barricades. The firing lasted from half after two until six o'clock, at which hour half a battery of Darmstadt artillery entered the city and commenced firing at the barricades. The firing continued until half-past eight, when the insurgents were completely defeated. The slaughter has been terrific on both sides. Among the slain is Prince LICHNOWSIET. At half-past nine a placard was posted declaring the city in a state of seige so long as the riots should last. The various unions are suspended, and their assembling is forbidden. Every one who appears armed (without proper authority) is to be punished according to martial law. (Signed) In the name of the Imperial Ministry, SCHAIERLING. The soldiers bivouacked for the night in the Horse Market. AUSTRIA. VIENNA, Sari. 15.—The events of yesterday have taken a most serious turn to-day. All under arms. The central point of movement is the University. In the sitting of the Assembly on the 14th, a commission of five members were nominated to aid the Ministry in seeing that their resolutions respecting the peace of the city are promptly executed. The armistice with Italy has been prolonged six weeks.—Allcemeine Zeittang, Sept. 18. PRUSSIA. BERLIN, SIFT. IL — Yesterday at noon M. VON BECKERATII, accompanied by M. VON AUERSWALD and General PFUEL, rode to Potsdam, for the purpose of having an interview with his MAJESTY, and did not return till late at night. The extreme difficulty of the Administration has been greatly lightened by a telegraphic dispatch received this morning of the sanction of the armistice by the Frankfort Diet. The following Ministerial list may be regarded as authentic, but has not yet been made public :-- BECKRRA.TII President and Finance. VON BONIN PFUEL . War. COUNT MATEO! , .. Foreign Affairs. MEYISSON Trade. VON LADENBERG... Public Instruction and Religion. M. vox BEOYERATH has carefully consulted all parties, and especially M. GRABOW. Of the ex-Ministry only M. KUHLEWELLER retains his seat in the National Assembly, as he has been re turned by three places. Placards are posted about the streets to-day, written by HELD, in which, among other reforms, he again proposes that the Prince of PRUSSIA shall be placed at the head of affairs, instead of the Kura. This propo sition has been backed by an address from Stettin, signed, it is stated, by 60,000 individuals.—Borsen. halle, Sept. 19. The Berliner Nachricleten of the lgth says, that yesterday afternoon, the report was prevalent in Ber lin that the new Ministry, which had scarcely been formed, was again broken up, and that M. VON BECKERITH was on the point of leaving Berlin. By an army order issued at Potsdam, on the 17th, General YON WRANGEL announces that he has been appointed by a Cabinet order of the 15th, to the command of all the Prussian troops stationed in the March. The tasks:confided to him he states to be " the restoration of public peace in this country, wherever it is violated, and where the power of the burghers is insufficient for the purpose." At the close of the army order, the battalions on active ser vice are to be reduced to 900 men, and subsequently to 800. BERLIN, SEPT. 17.—STEIN'S military question continues to be actively mooted, both in placards and assemblies. The attempts of the democrats are always ener getically met on .the other side. Some officers and soldiers have protested against the democratic pla cards. The Burgher Wehr Club seems determined to put an end to the matter, and has called together a public meeting to-day for the :purpose of effecting a right understanding between the burghers and the military. The main points to be discussed are the decisions of the 9th of August and 7th of September ; the position of the military in re gard to the people and the Burgher Wehr, and their relation to the new state of things. A social feast of the military and the burghers will be strongly urged. The cholera appears to be on the decline, 8i persons only having been attacked within the last two days. —Hamburgh Correspondent, Sept. 19. The New *Rhenish Gazette of the 19th instant states that a popular meeting of several thousand in dividuals was held on the 17th instant in the neigh bourhood of Cologne. The entire assembly, with one dissentient voice, voted for the establishment of a Democratic and Social Republic, and it was re solved, on the motion of M. E. DRONKE, that an ad dress in that sense should be presented to the Na tional Assembly at Berlin. The assembly likewise recognized the Committee of Public Safety es tablished at Cologne. MECKLENBURGH-STRELITZ. In consequence of the disturbances of Mecklen burgh-Strelitz,: the 6th Prussian. Regiment of Cuiras siers has been sent to Strelitz, at the request of the Grand-Ducal Government. It is stated that the ex-Minister VON BRENSDORFE has been charged by the GRAND Du with the formation of a new Cabinet.—Berliner Nachrichten. SWEDEN. The KING is expected to arrive at Stockholm on the 16th, previous to the departure from Malmo. His Majesty reviewed the Swedish and Norwegian troops which were assembled at Schonen, and ex pressed his great satisfaction. SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN. ALTONA, SEPT. 18.—A Baden battalion arrived here this afternoon by railway, which has been con signed to Eimsbuttel and Eppendorf, besides the Frankfort and about 2,000 federal troops, which have been left in the Duchies. Scarcely anything, but the artillery, is now left. The greater part of the cavalry, as well as a part of the artillery and infantry have returned home by way of holstein and Stein. beck. The Schleswig-Holateinera who have been sta tioned in Hasam are to be removed to Itarhoe, and the other native troops will be divided among several Holstein villages. On the 19th the Nassau battalion marched through this place to Hamburgh, where it will be quartered. HAllnuaGii, SEPT. 17.—After the King of DEN MARK quitted Alsen, the day before'yesterday, the numerous outposts, who have hitherto been stationed on the continent at Duppel, were at length removed ; and on the same day a portion of the infantry em barked for Denmark. RENDSBURG, SEPT. 1 B.—Tbe Provisional Go vernment has just announced, officially, in the Schleswig-Holstein Zeitung, that the Assembly has adopted the fundamental law for the Duchies. The Schleswig-Holstein Zeitung says that, at the meeting of the Assembly, one of the Deputies ex horted the . Provisional Government to adopt extra ordinary measures for circumventing the intrigues of the Danish propaganda in North Schleswig.—Rant. burgh Mail, Sept. 19. HUNGARY. Letters have been received in Paris from Pesth which announce that the Parliament of Hungary, pressed between the Imperial Government and the victorious insurrection of the Sclavonians, has deter mined to make an unconditional submission to the Emperor FERDINAND as King of Hungary. PESTS, SEPT. la.—lt is remarkable that yesterday nearly half the garrison of the fortress of Ofen went over to KO9SUTH'S army. HOLLAND. Trn HAGUE, SEPT. 20.—1 n the sitting of this day the President announced that his MAJESTY refused to accept his resignation of the office of President of the Chambers, having considered the motives for it insufficient ; that he had, however, reiterated his request, and that his MAJESTY had finally ac cepted it. The Chambers then proceeded to the formation of a list of three candidates, to be presented to the KING, for the nomination of a President ; 105 Mem bers were present, 14 of whom voted for the elec tion of Mr. BORREL, who was declared first candidate by a majority of 53 votes. Mr. VERWEY MEGAN was returned second candidate, and Mr. MUTSAERS third candidate. This list is to be presented to his MAJESTY by the committee, composed of the members; who consti tuted the bureau, for the Royal decision. The President then announced that, as in 1840, the Chamber would be divided into seven sections, in stead of five. After the formation of the sections, they retired to nominate the President and Vice-Presi dent.—Niedertandsche Courant, Sept. 20. CROATIA. The Wiener Zeitung of the 17th announces the entry of the Bann of Croatia into Setenye, from whence he intends to proceed on the 14th by way of Kanischa. He has under his immediate command the divisions Schmidt and Kempen, amounting to 30,000 men. General lIARTLIEII has entered Cza Kathum with 18,000 men. The Hungarians nowhere offered the slightest resistance. DENMARK. CHOLERA.. COPENHAGEN, SEPT. 17.—Although the presence of the cholera in Hamburgh can no longer be kept secret, the last steamer from Lubec has been per mitted to run in. Now, however, a quarantine of twelve days has been established at Klampenberg and in Dragal, for the navigation of the Belt. This intelligence is con firmed from Sunday. STOCKHOLM, SEPT. 12.—1 n consequence of a com munication received yesterday from Commerzium, the following places are designated as infected by the cholera :—Archangel, and all the Russian and Fin land harbours in the East Sea, and the Gulf of Fin land, except the harbour of Ehland, also Stettin, Hamburg, and Altona. The following are given as suspected :—The harbours in the White Sea, the harbours of Ehland, of Pomerania, Mecklenburg Lubeck, Travemunde, Holstein, Cuxhaven, Bremen and Oldenburg. RUSSIA. Letters from :St. Petersburgh of the Bth instant announce that the Emperor NICHOLAS had instructed his envoy in England to support the indissoluble union of Schleswig with Denmark, at the conference about to be held on the subject in London. ITALY. LOMBARDY. The correspondent of the National writes as fon lows from Milan : " Whilst Austria is throwing a thick veil before the eyes of France, and lulling her to sleep by promises as vague as they are vain, she has recourse to the most cruel measures to crush all: vitality in Lombardy, and all sympathy between the Lombardians aad the French, by making the former believe that France is aware of the treatment which they endure, and that she does not oppose, because she approves of them. There is scarcely a day passes that blood is not shed at Milan, at Brescia, Como, and Pavia. The Austrians are not content with secretly shooting the citizens, but they beat themi to death publicly. . . " Martial law still exists, so that 'the latter punish ment is inflicted at the pleasure of the commanding officers. " The cannon are planted ready to firo on Milan, and emigration continues. There is not above one in a hundred of the inhabitants who now remain in that city." WALLACHIA AND MOLDAVIA. A letter from Bucharest, which was received at Vienna on the 11th, says that Russia has signified to the Wallachian Government that it must dissolve itself immediately. Russia announces that she has agreed with Turkey on this subject, and that in case of a refusal a united army of the two powers would enter Wallachia. " The Sultan having refused to receive the Wallachia❑ deputation, the Provincial Government has replied to Suleyman Pacha, that they will respect the wishes of the Sultan; as to the Russian note, no answers has been given to it." DEATH OF LORD GEORGE BENTINCK. NOTTINGHAM, FRIDAY, 9.45 A.M, A messenger from Welbeck Abbey has just ar rived, announcing the death of Lord George I3entinck. His Lordship left the Abbey, on foot and unattended, at three o'clock yesterday afternoon, for Thoresby park, the seat of the Earl of Manvers, where he had an engagement to dine. Not arriving, inquiries were made, and at nine o'clock last night he was found on the footpath quite dead, having evidently expired from apoplexy. Thoresby is about six miles from Welbeck. —Times. REGISTRATIONS. (THIS DAY.) CITY OF LONDON. Mr. M‘Christie proceeded with the revision of the parish lists for . Aldersgate Wi t hi n and Without, and Aldgate and Billingsgate, but no case of any importance came on during the morning. ETTENSITE FIRE AT DEFTPORD.—This morning, at five o'clock, an alarming fire broke out on the pre mises of Mr. Miller, licensed victualler, Crown and Anchor, No. 81, New-street, Deptford. The fire was discovered by the police-constable on the beat, and the inmates and those in the adjoining houses happily escaped. An express was forwarded by the police to Mr. Braidwood, who, with the men under him, quickly arrived on the spot, but unfortunately, from the want of a sufficient supply of water for nearly three quarters of an hour, tho element gained such an ascendancy, that before it could be subdued the premises of Mr. Miller were burnt down, those of Mr. Elnor, No. 80, exten sively damaged, as well as those of Mr. Langdale and Mr. Watson. The cause of the fire has not yet been ascertained, and it is not known to what extent the pro perty is insured. The deficiency of water (from the Kent Water-works) was attributed to the alterations making in the reservoirs at the Deptford station. An accident which might have been attended with; serious consequences took place this morning at the Thames Tunnel Pier, and was only prevented by the intrepid and praiseworthy conduct of Samuel Sims, the Captain of the Watormen's steam-boat No. 12. It ap pears that on stopping at the above pier to embark and land passengers, a gentleman and lady, with a child about seven years old, were seen h urry i ng d own towards the boat, and th e gent l eman, w h o was carrying the child, had just ti me t o cross t h e b rowse , whe n which he word was given to " go o n ," i mme di a t e ly after thepier, dis covered that it was going to Woolwich w instead regain n o re trace his steps, i when he, with the child in h is just set his foot on the brow se arm s, a o n f d Lon don, - n don, and made an attempt to reg into the water.

In future, therefore, all letters for or through Hamburgh and places in the Elbe, intended to be sent by private ship, will be transmitted under the usual regulations." BANKING Houas.—ln addition to the other bank ing firms who have announced their determination to follow the example of the Bank of England, the City bankers, and the joint-stock banks, in limiting their hours of business, the Commercial Bank of London, in Henrietta -street, have given notice that on and after Monday, the 2d of O cto b er next, the hour of closing will be four o'clock, instead of five o'clock, as at present. MONEY and COM.MERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARLEIi TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday W it 3 heavy. Sales 4,000 bales. Railway Shares were better, and in some instances improved considerably. Recent advices from Equador state that the party of General Flores, who was daily expected in the republic, was becoming very strong, and that all appearances were in favour of a revolution breaking out, in whic h the adherents of this remarkable man would stand a fair chance of success. In the meantime the authorities were taking severe measures against them. The Belgian Government has prolonged, until the end of December, the permission to import cattle and groi n free of duty. The advices from the continent this morning are of very unsatisfactory character, and cause a renewal of the anxiety felt concerning the " settling down" of foreign political affairs. The hope with respect to Germany is that a good underst an di ng b e t ween A us tria and Prussia will serve to keep the elements of nationality together, for as to the ability of the Central Gore° . ment to maintain itself without the aid of those poare,.",,' no one fur a moment entert a i ns th e id ea . At P a ris Ii"" matters are not looking well. The proceedings which took place yesterday at the Bank of England meeting necessarily ex cite a good deal of discussion, and much dif: ference of opinion. It is curious, however, that during the animated and varied debate which occurred, no one duly enforced upon the attention of those presen t the absence of any claim of existing proprietors to that part of the reserve accumulated before they bought th e investment, whatever right they may h ave to recent ad ditions. Mr. Fielder goes great lengths when he con tends that the Bank is not called upon to keep ant r e : serve, for it is mainly to the knowledge of its 8 1 '°" strength in this respect that the establishment has owed its safety in periods of mistrust and panic. For tunately, however, the ma j or ity o f t h e pro p r i e tors will go with Mr. Fielder, although they may think 3,000,0001. sufficient as a " rest." The present proprie tors did not save the rest, it is now the accumulation of long series of years, and they must be cautious not to do anything which will stimulate the directors to force out the notes and bring about fluctu a ti ons i n the value of money. Public considerations demand this, as wag $ll private interests. There has been an exceedingly quiet market to-day for the English Securities, and the quotations, although rendered " flat" upon the foreign news, have scarcely varied beyond the " turn" of buyers and sellers. Con sols have been 86 to 86i- for Transfer, and 86i I for AC' count. Exchequer-bills have realised 30s. premium. In the Foreign Market the only securities dealt in have been—Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. at 70i ; Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 444 to 45k; and the Four per Cents. at 7 Railway Shares are looking tolerably good again' Decidedly higher prices have been paid for Great Western, but North-Western, Eastern Counties, South - Eastern, Midland, and the York lines are about the same as yesterday. South-Western are dearer. Bright° have been 26 . 4 1 to 27. No business has been done in Banks or Mines. c).. F, CLOSING P {ICES OF IthiTisit FUNDS. O'CLOCK. PItICV; 3 per Cent.
