Vienna has fallen ! according to a rumour which has arrived in this country rather circuitously, and which is implicitly credited by the majority of our Conservative contemporaries. Without waiting for the confirmation of this extraordinary intelligence, a pman is at once chaunted by them for the victory of FERDINAND—a pecan as frantic in rapture as the famous idyll in the Princess of TENNYSON. " Our enemies have fallen, have fallen !" is the cry which bursts out like a shriek of exultation from the Tory press of England, who, not inappropriately, identify their . ow own cause with the fortunes of retrograde statesmen like GUIZOT and METTERNICH% Without directly imputing to these enthusiasts any con nivance at a rather premature fabrication, we must, nevertheless, observe at once that their narrative is marked by t r several gross inconsistencies. This, to say th e least o s uspicious . Foremost among all these in con sistencies is is the assertion that the soldiers of WINDISCVGIL:z en crowning were received with National joy by the Viennese, th e them with garlands of flowers, the throwing down their arms in hornagae l Guards tiona , and the very children showering upon them from the w i n d ows bonbons and blossoms, as merrily as the spectators of a Roman carnival. The improbability of all this i s too obvious to require any very elaborate refutation. For, supposing the receptio n of the besie g ing army have been thus cordial, whence came the preceding frenzy of the besieged ? If the National Guards flung away their weapons so willingly, who were the men who had so long, so obstinately, and so furiously defended the walls of the metropolis? Then it is asserted that no students were observed among the protectors of the Diet! What became of them ? Were they spirited away over the heads of the belligerents like so many Don CLEOPHAS PERAN DE Zamnunos, guided by an om nipresent ASMODEIIS, and astride of a legion of Hip pogriffs ? But, say the confidential and veracious " Correspondents," some of the principal promoters of the late revolutionary movement have absconded. So ! the secret of the whole mystery is nothing more nor less than that students, demagogues, and de fenders have—evaporated ! leaving the loyal part of the inhabitants to feast, and fete, and fraternize with the imperial troops and their colleagues the Croatians, as heartily as ever did the courtiers of Versailles with the Royal Cravattes of MARIE AN- TOIN ETTE. Now, all that is decidedly known respecting the THE SUN, position of affairs at the capital of Austria is, that the city was bombarded by the forces of WINDISCII - and JELLACHICH—that several of the suburbs, such as Landstrasse and - Leopoldstadt, had been taken—that rockets and bombs were being rained I upon the Aula—that many portions of the city were in flames, clouding the day with smoke and flushing the night with a lurid red ; but that, in defiance of all these tremendous efforts on the part of the assailants, the citizens were still de fending Vienna with a resolute devotion only com parable to that displayed by the Spaniards at Sarra gossa. Since these authentic details have been re ceived, a vague and uncorroborated rumour has arrived, to the effect that Vienna has 'fallen before the assaults of WINDISCEIGRATZ. And thereupon, as we have already observed, our Tory contemporaries raise a shout of rapturous exultation. Taking for granted the accuracy of this rumour— though we wholly and decidedly discredit the peculiar circumstances of the surrender as above enumerated— we draw deductions from the occurrence diametrically opposed to those indulged in by the admirers of the policy of Prince METTERNICH. If Vienna has been captured by Prince WINDISCHGRATZ and his Croatian ally, the Ban JELLACHICH—it has only been taken when re duced to a gigantic and smouldering ruin. The bloodshed has been terrible—it cries to heaven for vengeance—its awful prayer will not pass unan swered. Henceforth and for ever the very name of FERDINAND will smell of the blood of the Austrian people as unendurably and as inevitably as ever did those of the Terrorist Murderers of the first French Revolution, the foul MARAT, the ob scene CHAUMETTE, the inexorable ST. JUST, the bland and villanous CoUTHoN, the stern and cadaverous ROBESPIERRE. The wholesale atrocities perpetrated upon the unfortunate Viennese have alto gether obliterated the remembrance of an isolated as sassination like that of Count Lkroua—a man who richly deserved the punishment he received, though it were better had that punishment been administered more judicially, and with a less horrific prolongation of agony. By those who have faith in the splendid phantasm of the " right divine," and who regard every act of the idiot crowned with the imperial diadem of Hapsburgh as entitled to applause and glorification, the capture of Vienna at the point of the bayonet and at the muzzle of the howitzer will appear as the in auguration of a long reign of uninterrupted tyranny and unquestioned absolutism. Nay, it has already been said by some amongst them, that the fall of the Austrian capital before the guns of WINDISCHGRATZ will lead to the revival of the ancient policy of the empire, and possibly to the recall of the gang of re trograde politicians who have danced attendance upon METTERNICH even into his place of banishment. The experiment of liberal institutions, and of a free Government has been tried, say they, and now that it has proved such a deplorable failure, the old administration of despotism will be revived. The experiment, quotha! As if the Constitution extorted from the reluctant Sovereign at Schoobrunn by the grand voize of a whole nation had been some spontaneous experiment on the part of the fatuous FERDINAND, instead of the giant necessity of an age ripened into freedom by the lore of philosophy Nay ! The fall of Vienna, if it be really fallen, or if it be destined to fall before the armies of JELLACHICII and WINDISCHGRATZ, will, on the contrary, be the pronunciation of the doom of the EMPEROR. Before the monstrous and unparalleled crime of a Sovereign battering down the walls of his capital and butcher.. ing the inhabitants of the first city of the empire, the people may for a moment fall back aghast and pause from emotions of horror ; but as certainly as that this crime has been reserved for FERDINAND and 1848, the people will rise and exterminate their dia bolical conquerors. Under such circumstances even those who are the most devoted adherents of a free monarchical Government have reason to yearn for the inauguration of a Republic and the establishment of democratic institutions. The contemplated amalgamation between three of the great railway companies having metropolitan termini—the North Western, the Great Western, and the South-Western—the preliminary arrange ments for which we announced yesterday, may be regarded as an event of the deepest importance not only to the shareholders in the several companies, but to the community in general. The former will, of course, desire that a fair and remunerating divi dend should be paid on the amount of capital ex pended on the construction of the line—that the traffic should be developed to the utmost ex tent —and that the largest possible returns should be obtained and divided in due course among the several parties entitled thereto. These are the only points in which the proprietors, as such, can feel any interest. They have entered upon a commercial speculation, and it is their private profits, and not the convenience of the public, that must be regarded. But as members of the great body politic, they, in common with the rest of the community, must con sider the matter in another and a very different point of view. A safe, comfortable, expeditious, and economical mode of transit has become one of the necessities of the age. The establishment of railways the construction of the iron net work by which our island is intersected—has created an extraordinary moral revolution throughout the land. Journeys are now undertaken at a mo ment's notice at which our fathers would have shud dered, and which they would not have attempted unless compelled by paramount necessity. Many persons, relying on the facilities thus placed within their reach, reside with their families in pure country air, at considerable distances from their places of business, and travel distances every day, that under the ancien regime would have consumed their entire time, and required enormous outlay. It is scarcely necessary to enumerate the advantages resulting from such arrangements. The blooming countenances of children in the enjoyment of robust health and buoyant spirits, in place of languishing in the close and tainted atmosphere of an unhealthy town, will appeal more forcibly to a parent's heart, and speak with more thrilling eloquence, than any language to which we could give utterance. But it is not merely in these respects, important as they most undoubtedly are, that the chief advantages of the railway system consists. It is not in the rapid tran sit of passengers, the greater cheapness of fares, or the greater safety in travelling alone, that the beneficial results of these vast monuments of British enterprise and British capital are perceptible. Our trade and commerce is materially promoted—principals are enabled to make their own arrange ments in place of leaving them in the hands of agents, in whom they might not be enabled to place implicit confilence ; business can, therefore, be greatly extended, and that with little additional ex penditure, trouble, or fatigue. Orders, too, will be given to suit the exigencies of the market, in conse quence of the rapidity with which they can be re ceived. Everything relating to trade and manufac ture is thus materially aided and promoted by the much calumniated railways, which have been so in cessantly attacked by certain classes of political economists, who ascribe all the evils under which the country Las suffered to their construction. Agriculture is, if possible, still more benefited than trade or commerce. The produce of the land can be con veyed to market and readily disposed of at one-fourth of the cost that was formerly required for that pur pose. Manures and earth for agricultural purposes, that were previously inaccessible, can nuw easily be got, and th us i ncrease d pro d uce can b e ob tained from the land, an additional supply of food for the nation, while the farmer receives the rewards of hi s i ndustry in the enhanced tamed from th e hi g h er cultivation and pardofitditsioobna-1 fertility of the so il. A high a ut hor ity cultural affairs, Mr. S MITH, of De s on agri cultural that " on a far m o f two hundr t d n' ac h r as es on a six course shift, with fift een m il es of transport, there would be a yearly saving o f ten shillin gs acre in carriage alone." If this h e t rue, and clinely' practical farmer can easily make the calculation, how vast is the aggregate amount thus saved throughout the entire kingdom. is, as an ancient philosopher informs us, " he is the greatest benefactor of mankind who makes two blades of grass spring up where only one for merly grew," how deep a debt of gratitude is due and owirg to men from whose energy and enter prise the nation has derived such incalculable advantages ?—advantages which may briefly be stated in the words adopted by the Select Committee on the state of the poor in Ireland, who, speaking of canals in 1830—and every statement i 3 even more applicable to railways than to canals—sly : " The effect of opening lines of inland navigation, when formed upon proper scientific principles and executed with due economy, has been, on the con currence of all testimony, the extension of improved agriculture, the equalization of prices of fuel and provisions in different districts, the diminishing the danger of scarcity in both these necessaries of life; and advancing the general improvement of the con dition of the people by the creation of a new, vigorous, and continued demand for labour." Even the fisheries participate in the general ad vantage. Many thousand tons of fish are annually borne into the interior of the country, and thus new markets are opened to the fishermen, and a cheap, wholesome, and agreeable article of diet placed within the reach of thousands, who were heretofore wholly debarred therefrom. We have thus shortly proved that the community at large are even more deeply interested in the pros perity and extension of the railway system than even the shareholders themselves. We shall on an early occasion enter into the consideration how far those interests may be affected by the proposed amalgamation. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. During the debate on the right of labour, M. LEON FAUCHER interrupted M. FELIX PYAT in the course of his speech, exclaiming, " A man who could utter such sentiments would fight at the barricades ;" upon which M. LEDRU ROLLIN retorted, " There are some men who would not fight at the barricades either on the one side or the other." The sarcasm was barb( d with truth, and it told. Great was the hubbub among the Thierses, the Leon Fauchers, et hoc genus onine, the cellarmen of revolutions. A scene of violent re crimination followed, and the friends of the respective parties are to meet to arrange ulterior proceedings. If we may judge from the agonies of La Presse, the cause of reaction is not in the most prosperous state. M. Emma DE GIRARDIN has, in order to raise sym pathy fur himself and his cause, declared that it is the intention of the Government to arrest him ille gaily, an assertion utterly and entirely without foundation, and thereupon he magniloquently dares the Government to act illegally, and threatens them that if they do " France will close her doors against the tax-collectors," and concludes with " the depart ments are now warned." Had M. Emma DE GIRAR DIN ventured, under that regime which he is so anxious to restore, to recommend non payment of taxes under any circumstances, he would within a very short period have found himself an inhabitant of Mont St. Michel. M. CAZAVAN, the Prefect of Toulouse, who at tended the Socialist banquet there, has bee❑ dis missed. In the sitting of yesterday the National Assembly proceeded with the adjourned debate on the revision of the Constitution. The debate is expected to finish this evening. The Moniteur announces that on Sunday next General CAvAIGNac will review all the troops at pre sent at Pari=, in the Chatrp de Mars. The Madrid mail of the 29th ult. did not arrive in Paris yesterday. M. Raspail has addressed the following letter, dated Donjon de Vincennes, the Ist, to the Opinion Pub lique : " Citizen Editor,—You announce that I have given up my candidateship to the Presidency in favour of the citizen Ledru Rollin. You have been led into error; such an idea never entered my mind, for to me it has no sense. In fact, we may give up a right, but not a choice. Now, what right have we by our selves to the Presidency, and why put ourselves for ward, or rather seek thus to impose ourselvis on the free election of the people, sole master of the dignity and sole giver of the office ? For my part, I have always believed that I conformed to democratic principles, in putting myself forward in no respect, but also in giving up nothing in favour of any one. I accept without shrinking the place which the interest of the people assigns me, the prison like the candidateship; but I never endeavour to prejudge the choice of my coun try, having only in view the happiness of serving it." M. Prudhon has just brought out his journal, under the title Le Peuple, but the amount of caution-money deposited only enables him to publish it weekly. It is, however, intimated that hereafter it will be pub lished daily. BOURSE, PARIS, FRIDAY, NOV. 3. THREE o'cLock.—The decline continued to-day, and all di.): the offers were very numerous. The deplorable state of the Government account with the Bank of France had a sinister effect on that establishment, which fell 30 francs. On the whole, this has been the worst Bourse that we have seen for mouths past. Fur the Account, the French Three per Cents. have declined 40c.; the Five per Cents. 30c.; and the Loan 45c. For Money, the Three per Cents. have declined 35c.; the Five per Cents. 40c.; and the Loan 35c.; Bons du Ti - sor are not quoted: Bank of France Shares have linen 3011; Belgian Bank Shares remain the same; ditto Five per Cents. have advanced I per cent.; Spanish Funds not quoted: Roman has risen 4 per cent.; Rothschild's Receipts not quoted. Exchange on London (30 days). 25 45; ditto (90 days), 25 27k. Railway Shares have also fallen. The Orleans have fallen 15F., the Rotions 3f. 75c., and the Bordeaux, if. 25c. The Bales, Northerns. and Strasburgs remain as yesterday. The Marseilles have risen if. 25c. BUSINESS DONE IN FOREIGN RAILWAYS AT THE LONDON STOCK-EXCHANGE, Nov. 3. _ .. Boulogne and Amiens, WA—Luxembourg, %—Paris and Lyons, 4—Sambre and Meuse, 2%. GERMANY AND THE NORTHERN STATES, AUSTRIA. Accounts from Aix-la-Chapelle of the Ist Nov. state that Vienna is in the hands of Prince WIN DISCEIGRATZ, that the city was taken only after im mense bloodshed, the inhabitants having defended the town street by street. These rumours—for they are mere rumours—require confirmation, neither dates nor particulars are mentioned. The latest authentic accounts that have been received from Vienna come via Berlin, and are to the afternoon of the 29th. The Prussian Staats Anzeiger of the Ist inst. says— "On the 28th the engagement :was chiefly on the southern and eastern sides, while on the western the batteries wera heard at intervals. In the evening the Ban had completely taken the suburbs of Landstrasse and Erdberg, and was standing at the Frauzenabruck and M6yQrgasse, at the entrance of Leopoldstadt, and had so taken up his position that be commanded them, and the whole of the Jiigerzeil, with his batteries. Be had also occupied their Custom-house buildings, which, by previous arrangement of General Bern, had been de dined for a principal point of defence, and great apprehensions were entertained for the immense quantities of goods which were stored there. "The Gloggnitz Railway was very warmlfdefe tided, but was taken by the troops in the course of the 28th., as were also the whole of the outer lines on the southern and eastern sides, as well as the suburb of W iedon, which is said to be the principal hold of the opposition party. In the Landstrasse the Jagers, it is said, took thirty barricades iu the course of three hours. soil the regiment of Nassau greatly distinguished itself. "In the suburbs of the Landstrasse and Larcisonfeld the troops were, it is said, favoured by the inhat itants, and were received by the women with garlands of flowers. Many National Guards threw down their arms, and a great many weapons were found in the canaL The workmen, on the contrary, displayed great valour. No stu dents were observed, and it was therefore conjectur ed that they had laid aside their peculiar distinctive marks, for the purpose of remaining incog. Not many bombs appear to have been thrown into the city, and thee e were chiefly directed against tho Aula, as a prelude to the attack. Several rockets and grenades had, ho mover, burst in the suburb of Wieden. The large and valuable machine manufactory at the Gloggnitz Railway - was in flames. " In the night of the 29th only single shots wer a fired. " The Hungarians continued to keep perfectly quiet during the engagement. They had approached nearer the city, but again fell back upon Bruck. Th ey had o c e f r s t m a i n o k l y e notwh which r d o e s e a n i y n a t thtea cit, ya was h a o s u e g o h e a s i d l a e r r g e d e ; o 1 b u e m a u signal of distress.

WIN DI‘CHGRATZ appears desirous of inducing all the citizens who may be disposed, to quit the city un armed, or, if armed, to lay them down, to co me into the suburbs that are taken, and thus separat )e them selves from the mob.

Upon the night of the 28th a red fire-signal wcs hoisted .on the top of the St. Stephen's tower to call' on z the Hungarians, who answered it by sending forward a detachment of skirmishers, which were, however, withdrawn. Pa, LERSDORF and other deputies had returned from 011mutz without seeing the EMPEROR. WINDISCH. GRATZ had proceeded, accompanied by JELLACHICH, to reconnoitre the Hungarians at Bruck. The suburbs of Wieden, Mariahilf, and Schottenfeld w ere attacked and c a rri e d on th e morn i ng o f th e 29th., The troops were established and entrenched in the Belvidere and Schwartzenberg garden, their batteries sweeping all the streets up to the Frances-bridge. BEM commanded the remnants of the Academic Legion and Poles, and fought manfully. The above is a Prussian account. There was a rumour circulated in Berlin on the Ist instant, that Vienna had surrendered, but it could be traced to no authentic source. The Ham burgh papers of the 31st nit. quote a letter which appeared in a Hanoverian journal, which states that WINDISCHGRATZ had entered Vienna and disarmed the Academical Legion. But this report is contradicted by another rumour, which states that the Academical Legion was no where to be seen, as its different members had disguised themselves as workmen, and were fighting in the ranks of the citizens. It is probable that Vienna is in the hands of WINDISCPI.• GRATZ, but we have as yet received no authentic in telligence to that effect. 31 0 ,ind 3 . L . ' E .L; WS. CITY, QUAUTE I? TO !IRE E. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 6,000 bales, and prices were barely supported.—la the Ralway Market there was a better tone. The weekly statement by the Bank of England, made up to Saturday last, tends to show that the amount 0 the pre( metals does not continue on the decline, arid from the increase we may conclude that the etrict of the dividend payments is over. Whether the d'r,2ctors anti cipate a further increase, it is not in our power to say. The public deposits are again lower, and the slight addi tion to the item of other securities, shows how necessary it had become to invite discount business by cheapening the terms. The comparison with the previous week is as follows: Notes issued 26,608,155 Increase Rest . ... 3,387,862 Increase Public Deposits 2,619,440 Decrease Other Deposits 10,921,192 Increase Seven Day and other Bills Decrease Government Securities Decrease Other Securities Increase Notes Decrease Bullion Increase Active circulation Increase 30,035 iThe amount of silver exported from London this week is 330,000 ounces; but there is no return of geld worth watine.. The Continental advices received to-day are not of a cheerful character generally. The Bourse at Paris is again in decline, but without any more special reason being assigned than that the Bank of France return continues to indicate extreme prostration of trade, and moreover that the Government balances are very small. Upon the eve of the election for President we could not expect a different result. Merchants and traders are naturally indisposed to extend their business until the great political problem is solved. As to the Vienna news, the issue of the contest seems no longer doubtful. The authorities of Gibraltar have established strict quarantine, and the vesselsof the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company will, in consequence, cease running for the present. The Liverpool Stock Exchange Committee has adopted an improved regulation in respect to share business. All transfers of railway stock are to be ready for delivery within eight days after the account day, and Scrip Stock (as before) within four days.

Our market to-day was heavy for most articles, and prices was with difficulty supported. PRUSSIA. In the sitting of the National Assembly of the 31st ult. a decree abolishing nobility throughout the domi nions of Prussia was agreed to. FRANKFORT. At the sitting of the German Parliament of the 31A ult., Biederman asked the Imperial Ministry what it intended to do with reference to a declaration made by the Saxon Ministry, and approved by the Saxon Assembly, to the effect that it had determined to reconsider the code of constitution, as definitively adopted by the Frankfort Assembly, before granting it is approval ? Mohl (the Minister) replied, that he had dispatched a note to the Government of Saxony, requesting an authentic protocol of the sitting in which the said determination was expressed and approved. More than this he could not at present do. Hopken asked the Imperial Ministry what steps it had taken to carry out resolutions passed by the Na tional Assembly many weeks ago, to the effect that Limburg formed no integral part of the kingdom of Holland; and that the portion of the Dutch debt to he defrayed by Limburg should be arranged by the Central Power ? Further, what energetic measures did the Imperial Ministry propose taking to prevent the incorporation of Limburg with Holland, as lately proclaimed in the new Dutch fundamental co d e o f rights ? And how did the Ministry intend to p ro t ec t German interests in general in Limburg ? The an swer was deferred. Forzter moved —"In consideration that it is in cumbent on every Ministry to give a sketch o f it s principles —as the present Ministry has promised so to do—and as this promise has not been kept, the National Assembly resolves that the Imperial 111i idstry be called upon to give a distinct statem en t o f its views and principles in the shortest possible time." Urgency negatived. The following sections of the scheme of constitu tion were then d'sposed of:— " Art. 3, sec. 6. The individu 11 German States main tain their independence, so far as the same is not limited by the Imperial constitution: they have all state digni ties and rights which are not expressly tr ans f erre d to the Imperial pwer."—Carried, with au understanding insisted upon by Rriss,ler, that this motion in no wi se prejudic.i the question of med!atiza?ion. " Part IL—Art. 1, sec. 7. rho Imperial power exclu sively has the international representation of Germ an y and the individual German states in relation to foreign hrls. The Imperial power appoints ambassadors an d consuls. It conducts the diplomatic intercourse, con cludes alliances and treaties with foreign lands, espe cially the conventions of commerce and navigation, as also those of extradition. It arranges all international affairs."—Carried unanimously. " Sec. 8. Tho individual German Governments have not the right of receiving or maintaining permanent atnbassadors."—Carried, the clause—with the excep tion of their plenipotentiaries at the court of the supreme head of the empire—being detached and re jected. "Sea. 9, The individual German Governments are authorised to conclude treaties with other German Go vernments."—Carried without discussion. " Their authority to conclude treaties with non- German Governments is limited to matters of private right, neighbourly intercourse, and police."—Carried without discussion. " Sec. 10. All treaties that do not refer to matters of purely private right concluded between a German Government and another German or non-German Government are to be laid before the Imperial power for inspection, and, so far as they chance to bear upon Im perial interests, for confirmation."—Carried unani mously without discussion. The following official proclamation has been issued by command of the Regent of the Empire : " His Imperial Highness the Archduke Regent of the Empire, since his accession to the central po w er, an d especially in reference to some measures adopted by him, has received such innumerable addresses from entire provinces, cities , communities, societies, and individual . persons, that is impossible to give a distinct reply to each; and this was reserved fur those only which called for it by some special reasons. " His Imperial Highness, however, feels it incumbent upon him to express his warmest thanks for the senti ments therein expressed by the senders, iln , l has com missioned the undersigned Minister of the empire to mak• the same publicly known in the name of his Imperial Highness. " THE MINISTER OF THE DIET OF THE INTERIOR. " Frankfort, Oct. 31, 1848." ITALY. Letters from Turin of the 30,11 state that " Genoa was seriously disturbed on the 29th. The troops were under arms and ready to act. The arrest of a bill-sticker was the cause of the disturbance. The people demanded his liberation, and broke the windows of the guard house with stones. The civic militia interfered and fired upon the people. The troops of the line assisted them in diTersing the multitude, which was again to assemble in the evening. This was the echo of the movement in Tuscany." At the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies at Turin on the 29th M. VALERIO asked the Minister of the Interior what course he intended to pursue in pre senc9of the insurr ec ti on :i n theiValtelina, and the events of Vienna. M. PINELLI replied that the in in the Valtelina was certain, but that Piedmont was interested in not precipitating matters, and had everything to hope by awaiting patiently the result of the negotiations. M. BUFFA. next read to the Assembly several letters he had received from Lombardy, stating that the insurrection had reached Bergamo, and was likely to extend over the whole country, and recommended Piedmont not to lose an instant in assisting those provinces which formed part of the Sardinian dominions. The Opinione of the 30th ult. quotes letters from Como of the 27th, announcing that all the adjoining valleys were in a state of the greatest excite ment. Many refugees had arrived in the country from Ticino, and on the 25th two steamers, laden with Austrians, having presented themselves before Argegno, an engagement ensued, and the village was ultimately burnt. The v alleys of Upper Seri ono , Camonica, and Jutelvi were in open revolt. In a collision, which took place at Palozzago, an Austrian superior officer was mortally wounded. SLETCH OF MOULTAN AND ITS FORTIPICATIONS.--• With a rapidity only c omprehensible when the result of it is accompanied by the name of Mr. Wyld, the geographer to her Majcsty—an admirable plan of the fortifications of Moultan has this day (November 4) been issued from the establishment at Charing•crossl Every detail of any importance whatever has been comprised in the sketch, and the eye perceives at a glance the difficulties against which Major Ed wardes and his military associates have had to adventure. The engraving testifies to the fact that the Moolraj and his rebel forces have enclosed themselves within almost impregnable fortifications. TIIE ARCTIC EXPEDITION. — The Lord Gambier, Captai❑ 11111, a whaler, which errived at Stromness on Monday, brings ilitelligenc , , four days later than any previously received from Sir James Ross.
