Evening .. 14 minutes atter 10. beautiful fable of THEOCRITUS, Polyphemus piped to Galatea. The emancipation of the Neapolitans and the Sicilians from the old and effete tyranny of the Bourbons has proved the extravagance of any attempt to crush out the flames of Italian freedom under the hoof of the Vandal of Schoenbrunn. Italian free dom can now be alone extinguished by the extinction of the Italian race. For the enthusiasm of a pa triotic unanimity has spread like a glorious contagion over the whole peninsula—the citizens of the various principalities have fraternized—the national tricolour is mingled indiscriminately with the red rosettes of Naples and the yellow and silver favours of the Sovereign PONTIFF. Italy is no longer " a geogra phical expression," it is a great nation which has just realised by a bloodless victory its perfect eman cipation. Some time has elapsed since we directed the public attention to the injurious consequences of the extra ordinary combination of the executive, the legislative, and the judicial functions exercised by the Royal Court of Guernsey. We exposed some of the many abuses that were the almost necessary results of the system; we noticed numerous instances of oppres sion and injustice, the origin of which might easily be traced to this source, and we appealed, as well on behalf of the English residents in the island, as of the great body of the people, for an efficient and compre hensive measure of reform, by which the acknow ledged evils would be removed, and free institutions substituted fur the despotic and unconstitutional powers theretofore exercised by the Royal Court. We had hoped that demand would have been complied with. We conceived that our object was more than half attained when inquiries were instituted, and the attention of the Government was directed to the subject. We felt that a searching and impartial investigation must give the death-blow to such a sys tem, and we hailed the appointment of a Commission " for the purpose of inquiring into the criminal laws now in force in the Channel Islands, and into the constitutions and powers of the tribunals and au thorities charged with the execution of such laws" as the necessary precursor of the ameliorations which were so urgently required and so anxiously looked for. It was true that the powers of the Commissioners were not sufficiently extensive. They were not to inquire into the civil laws or the mode of their administra tion. Their duty related only to the criminal code, but it was to be hoped that the all-powerful body-- the Jurats—would have seen the necessity for imme diate action, and that they would themselves have originated the reforms which they might be enabled to retard, but could not by any possibility have suc ceeded in averting. By these means they would, at least, have succumbed with a good grace, and it is not impossible that they might have been permitted to retain a portion of their former power, so far as it could have been eontinued to them without danger or injustice to the community. But the expecta tion was vain, they have resolutely opposed themselves to every improvement, and as, unfortunately, from the condition of affairs in the island, and more particularly from the extraordinary position in which the Court is placed with relation to the States, no thing can be effected without their concurrence— it is to the Secretary of State for the Home Depart ment and the Imperial Legislature that we must now look for the changes that can never be effected in Guernsey itself, so long as the Court continues a vexatious and organized resistance thereto. At first, when it was intimated that Commissioners would be appointed to inquire into the civil laws, unless some steps were taken for the reformation of the existing abuses, an attempt was made to stifle the dreaded investigation, and to persuade the autho rities in England that no change was desired by the people or was at all required. A vote was readily obtained from " the States," whose constitution we have already explained, declaring " that but very slight modifications were required, and that its insti tutions provided the means of doing all that was necessary in this respect." This assertion was, how ever, irreconcileable with the revelations that had been made. The Home Secretary could not thus be hoodwinked; and the States were again re quested to suggest such amendments as might be required in the laws and institutions. The Court was still unwilling to comply with this request, but the Douzenieers, who are also members of " the States," presented a rfquisition for the assemblage of the body, in order to take into its consideration, that communication; and also fur the purpose of appoint ing a committee to investigate and report on the civil laws and institutions of the island. Such an inquiry could scarcely be refused, in the face of the Home Secretary's letter, and a Committee was accordingly appointed, but no mem ber of the Court would afford his assistance, or con sent to serve thereon. They, perhaps, hoped that the report would be defective in the most essential particulars, if none of the " interpreters of the law" were concerned in its preparation, and a Committee was constituted, consisting of one member from each of the douaaines, but for almost the first time, when an important subject was agitated, not a single jurat was engaged in the matter. It was, perhaps, fortu nate for Guernsey that such was the case. The de liberations of the Committee were free and unfettered. They were emancipated, for once, from the bane ful influence that fettered and overruled their better impulses, . and a very able report was produced, which astounded the learned jurats, and convinced them that their assistance was not quite so essential as they had fondly supposed, and that legislative measures might be introduced, although they withheld their aid. The surprise was by no means agreeable. The real representatives of the people had condemned the existing system, and more especially deprecated the assumptions by the Court, and stated that the multifarious powers of that body should be abridged. This report, to which we shall allude on a future occasion, was signed by eleven of the twelve members, one alone of the number having refused his assent to the recommen dations therein contained. The States were convened to meet the 2d of February inst., principally for the purpose of taking this report into their consideration. But on this occasion the feeling of the Court was dia metrically opposed to what it had been when the Committee was appointed. Then not a single Member would give his assistance. Now they thought it only proper that the " questions therein treated should be referred to the Court, that such was the usual practice, and that it would be advantageous that the Court, who were the administrators, of the law, as well as the elected of the people, should have an opportunity of examining the various pro jects which had been brought forward, so that they might be able to form an opinion as to the manner in which the proposed changes would work. An amendment was therefore moved, that the report should be referred to the consideration of the Court for their observations thereon, to be sub mitted to the States at some future meeting. It is almost needless to add that the amendment, which was supported by every person connected with the Court and all the clergy, with one honourable exception, was carried, and thus the mat ter stands for the present. Four only of the Deputies supported the amendment ; but as the Court and the clergy constitute an absolute majority of the States, and they inrariably stick together, all resistance was in vain. As a local con temporary asks, with great apparent justice, " How is it pos3ible that any useful measure of reform can be carried in a House consisting altogether of only 87 members, when 13 members of the Court, and seven rectors of parishes are sure to vote one way ; and that way in di ect opposition to the popular interests ?" We shall return to the consideration of this subject on a future occasion. Our intelligence from Naples is up to the 2d. The KING had published a full and entire amnesty for all political offences, which had excited immense enthu siasm. General GAZIA. had been nominated Minister of War; the Chevalier CIANDULLI has been appointed to the direction of General Police, and M. TOYANO to the Prefecture of Police. These different nomina tions were approved of by the people. Trarluillity was complete at Naples, and the people calmly waited for the publication of the constitution. The Sicilians have accepted the constitutio❑ of 1812 on condition that the FRINGE ROYAL shall be nominated Viceroy, and that the Parliament shall sit at Palermo. All the fortresses of Sicily have been given up to tho Provisional Government of Palma°, and the whole of the Royal troops have returned to Naples. The people of Milan, who for some time past had abandoned the Grand Theatre, went there on the 6th, to show their joy at the events at Naples. The next day (Sunday) 30,000 persons went to the Cathedral at the last mass, which was celebrated on behalf of the inhabitants of Palermo who were killed during the bombardment. The vast crowd, all of whom could not enter the Cathedral, calmly sepa rated after Divine service, and not the least disorder occurred during the grand manifestation. Extraordinary supplements of the journals of Turin, published last Sunday, made known to the people that the Municipal Council had agreed to an address to King CHARLES ALBERT, praying for a constitution. At the same time placards were stuck up setting forth that the Grand Duke of TUSCANY had promised a constitu tion. This statement appears, however, to have been Premature, though probably it will not be long before it be verified. It contributed, however, to increase the excitement of the Piedmontese population. The same day the KING sent for his two sons, and, after having conferred with them a long time, convoked an extraordinary Council of Ministers, with portfolios and Ministers of State, for nine o'clock on Monday morning. During the sitting of the Council, which lasted nearly the whole day, a large crowd stationed around the Royal Palace, and the Muni cipil Council proceeded there to present the address to the KING. The public mind was very much agi tated. The deputation from Genoa was expected to demand also a constitution, and it was rumoured that the other principal towns of the state were about to follow the example. In the Council the KING de cided to give a constitution, the bases of which he proclaimed the next day. A letter from Alessandria, given by the Italia of Pisa, states that some German soldiers having Passed the Piedmontese frontier one of them was shot by the sentinel, whose warning had been disre garded. We have received the Turin papers of the Bth, giv ing the news of the 7th. On that day the KING received the deputation of the Municipal Corps, and assembled his Council of Ministers and all the high dignitaries of the State, in order to deliberate on the question of the Constitution. The deliberation in the conclave of the Council was not long, the question of principle having been resolved almost unanimously, and in the midst of ac clamations. There was no discussion, says the Opinione, except on the question of persong. During the entire day the inhabitants were on foot, peacefully pacing the streets, with expectations replete with hope, and animated by a confidence which does the greatest honour to the Prince who has been able to inspire it. The coffee-houses were crowded. Written bulletins were handed about, full of promises, which the event has not belied. The fol. lowing sentences were to be read :—" Citizens, observe order and moderation, the KING has promised to render his people content." And again, " Citizens rejoice; we have the assurance that our wishes will be fulfilled." The Patrice, of Florence, says : "If we are well informed, Austria has once more asked Charles Albert to allow her to occupy Alexan dria. Charles Albert gave Austria an answer worthy of his Italian heart, his Italian throne, and the interests and honour of Italy." The same paper announces the departure of the Earl of MINTo from Rome for Naples, on the 3d in stant, for the purpose of communicating to the Government of the Two Sicilies the counsels of England on the subject of the Sicilian rebellion. Accounts from Malta of the 4th announce the ac quittal by court-martial of Lieutenant Room] and the survivors of the Avenger. Madrid papers of the 6th have arrived. The Eco del Conzercio, in announcing the depr. ture of ESPARTERO from Madrid, says that it is authorised to express his regret at not being able to return the numerous visits made to him. It also publishes several columns of congratulatory addresses which had been presented to him. The Government have recently appointed a French man to superintend the establishments of the navy of Spain. In commenting on this appointment the Eco exclaims—" French system, French laws, French fashions, French furniture, French table services, a French princess, Duchesses of Montmorot, and that nothing may be wanting, those who abandoned us in a cowardly manner, and caused our navy to perish at Trafalgar, are now made directors of our navy estab lishments Oh, what decay ! What shame ! Ma lediction on those who in such a manner injure us— who prepare the downfal of our nationality and in dependence—malediction on them I" Serious differences are said to exist between NAR TAEZ and the Mon and Pidal party. MADRID BOLSA, FED. 7.—The Three per Cents. were done at 28 at 50 days ; the Four per Cents., at 16 for paper ; the Five per Cents., at 17, at 50 days ; the Debt without Interest, at 6, for paper ; and the Coupons, at 12. We have received the Faris papers of Saturday and yesterday. The debate on the Address was brought to a con clusion on Saturday, and the Ministry barely escaped defeat. The amendment of M. SALLANDROUZE, which expressed a desire for reform and progress, in conformity with the spirit of the age, was lost by a majority of 33 only, the numbers being—for the amendment, 189 ; against it, '206. This is a sad falling oft from the majority of 130 of last session. In the course of the discussion M. GUIZOT admitted that many Conservatives were in favour of electoral reform, and hinted that he would endeavour to de vise some measure to meet their wishes, and the Journal des Dahill of Sunday talks of healing the divisions in the majority by a wise transaction. The banquets, therefore, have not failed in their object. M. GUIZOT is made of squeezable ma terials, and some measure of reform will be wrung from him ere long. It is but natural that he should hate those who have van quished him ; and, therefore, we are not surprised at finding that he insisted on carrying the offensive paragraph in the Address ; but we are surprised that after hearing the admissions he made in his speech, on the discussion of the amendment of M. SALLEN DROUZE, the majority should have suffered him to drag them through the mud after him. The Opposition abstained from voting, and the Address was carried by a majority of 241 to 3. M. SAUZET, the President of the Chamber, had the indecency to vote in favour of a paragraph, stig matizing in the grossest manner more than 100 members of the assembly over which he presides. His conduct has excited the indignation of every lover of fair play in France, and the gloomiest ap. prehensions are entertained of the consequences likely to result from the reactionary course on which the Ministry has entered. The National has the following on the subject of the Address : " The Ministry and its friends by dint of exertions yesterday obtained their object, and the fletrissure has received legal consecration. It remains then to be seen how the Opposition will answer. It yester day did a little execution; M. Sauzet, President of the Chamber, committed the shameful impropriety of voting, and of voting for the Cabinet in a question of this nature. Immediately the Opposition decided that it would not again enter the President's house, and a member went to notify that to M. Sauzet, say ing—' You have closed your door to a considerable part of this assembly, and that portion is desirous of telling you that it considers you for the future not as President of the Chamber, but as the President of a faction.' It was at the same time resolved that the Opposition would refrain from presenting itself for the future at the ChAteau. That is very little—the country expects more, and expects better ! W e ho p e that the fietris will u nderstand and fulfil all their duty !" The Union Ilionarchique says-- "To judge fully of the proceedings of yesterday our readers should have been witnesses of it, as we were ; the crowd cast down and full of sadness, should have been seen retiring in silence from the sitting, and at the same time should have been seen the general aspect of discouragement upon all countenances, even upon the friends ef M. Guizot. It would then have been thought that a moment of some frightful event was come, or that some violent storm was suspending over us in the heavens. So many countenances de pressed with this sadness, this mournful silence, indi cated to all who saw and duly appreciated them, that there was at the end of this weakness of the majority something still more grave—still more sinister-etill pore frightful than a -Aniatvriad We read in the Conslitutionnel :—" M. SAUZET did not fear to vote in favour of the Address which censures a large portion of the Chamber over which he presides. The President ought not to forget that he is the guardian of the rights of the minority, and that the commonest sense of propriety orderad him to abstain. It is positively asserted now that the Op position has determined not for the future to appear in the saloons of the President." The soirée was given on Friday at the Jardin d'lliver in honour of Mr. J. O ' CONNELL by the Jeunessc Calk°lique, but from the injudicious exclu sion of ladies, and the absence of all proper organi sation, the display was wholly unworthy the oc casion. The guest of the evening was received with cries of Vive O'Connell ! mingled with those of Vive la Liberte Religieuse I and Vice Montalembert I That gentleman was not, however, present, being prevented from attending by continued illness. A few words of welcome and compliment were addressed to Mr. O'CoNNELL on his arrival, to which he returned an appropriate reply ; this, and a triumphal air from a military band, completed the reception. The general feeling of all present was annoyance and regret at the total want of the necessary arrange ments, and the evident incapacity of the managers of the affair to carry out what was doubtless a well meant compliment, but in which the kindness of the intention was altogether marred by the mode of its execution. The grand Reform banquet of the twelfth arron dissement is fixed for the 20th, and Opposition Deputies have determined to resign en masse unless before that day the Ministry revokes the resolution not to permit Reform banquets to be longer held. An attaché of the French Embassy at Munich has just arrived at Paris, bringing for the ratification of the KING the convention recently concluded between the Governments of France and Bavaria for the execution of a railway from Strasburg to Spire. The Marchioness of NORMANDY gave on Friday night a grand ball, for which considerably mor e than a thousand invitations were issued. The com pang• began to assemble at ten o'clock, and at twelve, the ball-room, the saloons, and the adjoining galleries of the conservatory, were completely filled with the chief rank, fashion, and beauty of Paris, and pre• sented a most briliant and animated spectacle. Two royal personages were amongst the distinguished guests, Prince PAUL OF WIRTEMUERG and the Prince of SYRACUSE. The whole corps diplomatique were in full attendance ; amongst the Ministers present were observed, the Minister of Finances, the Minister of Marine, and the Minister of Public Instruction. M. THIERS and Al. ODILLoN BARROT, Sc.c., were seen amongst the company, which comprehended besides, without distinction of party, the elite of the political circles. There were much fewer English present this season than usual, but the Russian nobility were represented there by many personages of remarkable beauty, who attracted besides the eyes of all around by the profuse display of the most magnificent diamonds and jewellery. An elegant supper was served up at one o'clock, and the dancing was kept up to a late hour in the morning. A Cabinet Council was held on Sunday, at which it was resolved (so says report) to propose to the Chamber a measure for the reform of the electoral laws. Perhaps the knowledge of the fact that in the event of any attempt being made to suppress reform meetings by force, neither the national guard nor the regular troops could be depended on, may have con tributed in some measure to the formation of this resolution. The Three per Cents. were done in the Passage de l'Opera on Sunday, at 741. 32ie. BUSINESS DONE IN FOREIGN RAILWAYS AT THE LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE, Ftez. 12.

The further arguments in this part•heard appeal oc cupied their Lordships the whole morning. CLERKEN WELL.—( THIS DAY.) Morris O'Conner, a blacksmith, was charged before Mr. Combo with assaulting MI s. liillyard, another young woman, her sister-in-law, and also a policeman. . . Mrs. Hillyard was passing, in company with her hus band, his sister, and a young man, her friend, through Peter-street last evening, when the prisoner, who was drunk, came behind her and knocked her down. He fell upon her, and beat her on the ground, and it was with difficulty her friends were able to get her away from him. He instantly attacked the other young woman, and struck her. He subsequently struck and kicked the police-constable, and after a desperate re sistance was lucked up. His defence was that the women first assailed him. The complainant and the police officer positively denied this, and the former declared they had never seen the man before. Some of the policemen in court said that Mrs. Hill yard and her husband were known in the neighbour hood to be decent, industrious people. Mr. CooMME, with a severe admonition, ordered the prisoner to pay a fine of 405., or be imprisoned two months. Immediately after his removal from the bar, his wife presented herself before the magistrate, and repeated in a vehement manner the story which her husband told in his defence. The complainants were called hack and confronted with her, when they adhered to their former statement, which the magistrate continued to believe. lIER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO THE ST. JAMES'S THEATRE.—We understand that it is the intention of her Majesty to honour the performance of the French Plays at the St. James's Theatre with her presence this evening. The performances will consist of the comedie vaudeville of Le Premier Maladie, after which, for the first time in this country, Rose et Marguerite, which recently achieved such a splendid success at the Theatre du Vaudeville in Paris, to conclude with Le Cadet de Famille. Mademoiselle Nathalie appears in the last two pieces. " RAMBLES IN VIE ROMANTIC REGIONS OF THE HARTZ MOUNTAINS" was a title that at once attracted our attention and excited our curiosity, but when we saw added to it the name of Hans Christian Andersen, we at once concluded that a treat of no ordinary cha racter awaited us. We were not disappointed. In this land of legend and romance, a man of the peculiar genius and sensibility of Andersen, might naturally be expected to feel his faculties wrought to a pitch of ex citement that must relieve itself by communicating its impressions to the world, and this he has done in a manner that promises to make the present volume at least as popular as any of his former productions. ALARMING FIRE IN THE LONDON- ROAD AND MIRACULOUS. ESCAPE OF THE INMATES.—This morn ing, shortly after one o'clock, a fire, which, had it not been so opportunely discovered, would, in all proba bility, have baen attended with a lamentable loss of life, broke out upon the premises belonging to Mr. Nathan, a furniture dealer, carrying on business at 24, London road, Southwark, next. door but one to the extensive floor-cloth manufactory of Messrs. Southgate and Co. Police-constable 24 L, whilst going his rounds, perceived smoke pouring forth from the basement of the house. He immediately sprang his rattle, and after some trouble he succeeded in making the residents sensible of the great danger to which they were exposed. Before, however, he had succeeded in so doing, the firo had gained head considerably, and upon the inmates attempting to descend the staircase, they were nearly knocked down by the rising of a powerful body of fire and smoke. The several parties instantly made for the first floor, from the window of which they happily succeeded in effecting a safe retreat. The neighbours of the adjoining houses took the parties, who were in their night clothes, into their habitations. The engines of the London brigade from Southwark and Waterloo roads, with that of the West of England office, quickly attended, and owing to the combined exertions of all parties, the fire was subdued before two o'clock, but not until a considerable amount of property had been de stroyed, the loss of which will fall on the Phcenix Fire office. FIRE IN ST. Luxi'a.—Last night, about half-past nine o'clock, a very alarming fire broke out upon the premises of Mr. Jackson, an oil, colour, and Italian ware h ouseman , carrying on business at No. 34, Old street, facing St. Luke's Church. The .flames com menced in the front shop, but from what agency could not be ascertained. Th e stock in trade being of such a com b us tible character, i t was apprehended at one period that not only would the premises in which the flames were burning be wholly destroyed , but the demolition of th o se adjoining on either aide appeared certain. Plenty of water being at hand the firemen set their engines to work, and after considerable trouble the flames were ' con fined to that portion of the property in which they originated. The damage done is very extensive. THE BOLLAR EXAOSION AT MANCHESTER. — Robert Benson, aged 19, who was hurt by the boiler explosion on Friday, at the spindle manufactory of Mr. Riley, died the same evening, after our account of the accident had been dispatched. This makes nine lives which have been sacrificed by this accident. Mr. Chap man, the borough coroner, commenced an inquiry into the circumstances on Saturday evening, but, after calling witnesses to identify the bodies, adjourned the case, to give time for scientific evidence as to the cause of the explosion to be obtained.

Rothschild and Barings at 891. 10s. for 1001. stock in the Three per Cent. consols. The bidding took place on the Ist of March, 1847. bntn lini LONDON, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1548. Prince METTERNICH, in the August of 1847, ad dressed a brief dispatch, but one pregnant with hypo crisy, to Count DEITRICHSTEIN, in which he spoke thus :—" Italy is a geographical expression." That sentence is a key to the policy of the Austrian Go vernment. It reveals that the Cabinet of Vienna is so blinded by the fanaticism of absolute and irrespon siblo sovereignty, that it cannot recognise the existence, much less sympathise in the development, of Italian nationality. Italy is a geographical expression That is to say, the Roman peninsula is a mere agglo meration of subordinate principalities, insulated from each other in political interests, estranged by social differences, and separated by the insurmountable bar rier of the memorable treaty of 1816. Italy is a geogra phical expression !—ln other words, there are no longer any Italians, either in name, in circumstances or in inclination, the people of that immortal land whose central city was once the imperial mistress of the world, have degenerated into the mongrel occu pants of inimical states, partitioned at the mandate of a Congress, and inhabited in one quarter by Tuscans, in another by Romans, in another by Neapolitans and Sicilians, in another by Piedmontese and Sardinians, in another by Lucchese, in another by Medenese, and in another by Lombardo-Venetians. Daly is a geographical expression /—To speak plainly, Prince METTERNICH would have us to understand that in the opinion of Austria the southern peninsula of Europe is a territory chalked out into the possessions of cer tain arbitrary Princes, some of them chained by dynastic bonds to the chariot of the KAISER, others of them associated by blood or intermarriage with the royal house of CArxT, arid one of them an eccle siastical potentate, elected by a congregation of Car dinals, and armed with a spiritual power more despotic in character than that of any temporal authority on the surface cf the globe. Austria, in short, considers the Italian peninsula to be simply the property of certain anointed personages, which per sonages she would willingly preserve in strict sub serviency to herself. She has been so taught by the stagnation of thirty years to regard that country as a track of land containing the orchards and granaries of her obsequious and powerless allies, that she can not relinquish the impression in an instant. Im pervious herself to the august light of Reason, and the glorious voice of Liberty, she cannot comprehend the refulgence of the one, or the sonorous potency of the other, in the kingdoms which are adjacent. Italy up to this moment continues to be, in the opinion of the Austrian Government, precisely what it was intended to be by the Treaty of Vienna, namely, " a geographical expression." Austrian absolutism is not yet aroused from the dismal vision of thirty years—the acclamations of a race of freemen from the city on the seven hills, the joy of Florence, the exultation of Turin, and the passionate ardour of Palermo, have all failed to waken her from her prolonged and pernicious trance —she is still possessed by the illusion that the several principalities of Italy are virtually the provinces of that occupant of Schoenbrunn, whose shoulders are covered by the imperial robes of Austria, and whose brows are girdled by the diadem of Hungary. Italy is still to the Cabinet of Vienna, as it has been for years, nothing more than a mere " geographical expression." If Austria is conscious at all of the enormous and indestructible importance of the recent movement southwards of the Po—a movement which has rolled the surges of patriotism even to the foot of the Carpathian Moun tains—she is conscious of it only as of a night mare in the long, and still unbroken, sleep of her absolutism. Pio Norio is to her but as a phantom of the night. The Grand Duke of TUSCANY and the King of SARDINIA have in her sight the same ghastly attributes. Italy is still to Prince METTERNICH the Italy of 1816—a mere "geographical expression," to quote yet once more the remark of that veteran statesman in his dispatch of August, 1847, addressed to Count DIETRICHSTEIN. In another column will be found the official correspondence from which the above exclamation of Prince METTERNICH has been abstracted. From that correspondence it will be perceived that Austria is still true to her repressive policy, and that England is prepared to oppos e that policy in act, while her language con tinues to be throughout the language of courtesy and con c ili at i on. The two letters wr i tten f rom Vienna, and the two penned in London, the questions put to the Foreign Minister of England, and the answers returned to the Foreign Minister of Austria, are perfectly in character with the two Governments. METTEENICII is, as of old, the champion of arbitrary principles, and PALAIEnsToN remains, as he ever was, the staunch supporter of those principles which are alone compatible with the onward march of events and the progression of ideas, with social liberation and constitutional reform, with the truths of Chris. tianity and the necessities of Civilisation. Austria yearns for an interference in those sove reignties of Italy which have already experienced the beneficent influences of innovation. England h averse to a proceeding so diametrically opposed to the ideas impressed upon her own constitution, and pre valent amongst her own people.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL INEWS. CITY, ()VARIER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool on Saturday was firm. Sales, 5,000 bales. Railway Shares were dull. The Continental advices received this mottling are of but little general interest. The accounts from the United States have been pe.. rased with interest, and the greater ease in the Money Market is a satisfactory feature. It is stated that— " It has been asserted that the Secretary of the Trea sury was in favour of an issue of Treasury notes of small denominations, such as fives and tens, bearing but a nominal rate of interest. Such is not the fact. The Secretary is in favour of no such thing. He is not in favour of Treasury notes of any kind, or in any shape; but he is in favour of raising another loan by a direct issue of Government stock, bearing six per cent. interest; or, in other words, he is decidedly in favour of the plan pro posed by the Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means; and no one on that Committee can be more anxious for the negotiation of a loan in that man ner, which is, in fact, the only legitimate way, than the Secretary of the Treasury. The issue of Treasury notes, in any shape, is in direct opposi tion to the financial policy of the Government ; and the issue of these notes has only been resorted to on account of the peculiar nature of the expenditures of the Government, and the dim seed state of the Money Market. We see the evil effects of the system in the present depreciation and the large amounts daily paid into the Custom-house for duties. The revenue of the Government is principally paid in these notes, and the public indebtedness is becoming rapidly liquidated. The Government is, in fact, paying off its old debts, while it is about entering the mar ket to negotiate a new one. We see in this the evils of the Treasury note system, and there is no way to avoid them, but by negotiating a loan in the really legitimate way. So far as the movements of the Com mittee of Ways and Means are concerned, we give them credit for nothing else than a disposition to embarrass the financial operations of the Government, and to force it, if possible, into a repeal of the most important mea sures of the country. This Committee has, perhaps, unwittingly fallen upon the very method the Secretary of the Treasury prefers to all others; and if a loan can not be negotiated upon the terms pr,posed, the Com mittee have assumed the responsibility." In Canada political excitements interfered much with business. The Funds are rather quiet again, hut they maintain nearly the previous rates. The accounts from Russia via Amsterdam state that great exertions were making to recruit the army in Poland, and that the corps raised there would replace troops that were expected to be sent to Gallicia with the view of assisting Austria, if neces sary, against its Italian subjects.
