his power, by wholly diverting their minds from that which ought to have been the one subject of contem plation, and leading them to wander, restless but full of hope, in quest of an ignis fatuits of expected par don. Now we repeat once more, that what is most wanted is a settled and intelligible system. This is needed for the protection of the public ; it is also needed for the sake of the criminals themselves. When a poor wretch has once brought himself into the predicament of deserving to die, the best service that say mast ca render him, is to lead or force him to fix his eye solely on that eternity to which be is hastening. But, such is the natural love of life, that, so long as a hope of escape is allowed to exist, it is not possible for the poor creature to think of aught else than the desired pardon. Now Sir George Grey's system, or want of system, seems to us to inflict this cruel injury on all present or future murderers—that, after such cases of unexpected and I unintelligible escape as we have alluded to, it is vult for any man to feel certain of dying. None, oowever atrocious their crimes, will believe otherwise, but that "if proper efforts are used, they may be saved." And hence all, even the worst, will die, at last, unwarned. They will die without being thoroughly assured, until the rope is actually about their necks, that their fate is at all decided. Nor ought the safety of the public in general to be wholly left out of view. In cases of deep-seated jealousy or revenge, we need some strong deterring cause to prevent the man of evil passions from im bruing his hands in his rival's blood. But an un certain, fluctuating, unintelligible system does not furnish such a deterring cause. Even a code from -which capital punishments were wholly excluded might be more protective than the present. For such a system, to be tolerated at all, must provide some good secondary punishment. And a punishment which, without taking life, was really a heavy one, would have more power in checking crime than a system like the present, which threatens death, but scarcely ever inflicts it. At the present moment the public are not protected. There is the nominal pu nishment of hanging, indeed, and upon such people as the Mannings it may sometimes be allowed to take its course. But when, for one such infliction of the law there are three or four remissions of the punish ment, the murderously-disposed looks at the average of the whole, and decides that he will grati f y his pas sions, and then—take his chance I INTERESTING NEW BIOGRAPHICAL WORK.

" Aide toi et Dieu t'aidera." The continual fulfi - merit and the frequent recollection of this important maxim is at once a duty and a consolation. An anti. date alike to idleness and despair, it enjoins upon us all the necessity of labour, and promises for that labour a meet reward. This maxim is now especially suggested to our notice by the approaching solemnity of to-morrow. To-morrow the whole nation are about to do collectively what almost every member of it has already done individually—to return thanks to PROVIDENCE for the abatement of the pestilence. Many persons, we are aware, regard the ceremony as an idle form, and others again look upon it as the only thing needful. Both extremes are, in our opinion, erroneous. The Thanks giving will, in most cases, be anything but heartless, Will not the father, whose household has_ been passed over by the destroying angel—will not the mother, who can yet press all her little ones to ber bosom— will not those happy few, who mourn no vacant place in the circle of friendship ;—will not these offer something more than a verbal thanksgiving ? Nay, even those who have wept over the victims of cholera, even they who can best appreciate its terrible puwer, will rejoice that at length the plague is stayed—if some have been taken, many have been left. Let us be grateful then. But, in order to prove our gratitude to be sincere, and our prayers not a hollow mockery, let us be zealous in doing our part, and in using the means with which PROVIDENCE has blessed us. Such is our practice in other cases. The most worldly will pray at the couch of a suffering friend, but the most pious will not refuse to employ the aid of medicine. The hus bandman trusts to the sun and shower to ripen his crops, yet he is careful to prepare the ground and to Sow the seed. While we have lips to utter praises and prayer s l e t us remem b er we h ave h an d s t o wo rk. Thereto re let no one who to-morrow will kneel be tween the por c h an d t h e altar, and offer up his thanks givings, return home satisfied, and think he has per formed all hi s duty.. On the contrary, be will only have incurred a heavier responsibility. Whatever the ch.,lera may not hay e been, one thing it certainl y was —a lesson. As death, th e d eat h o f their own first born children, was alone able to wrest from the Egyptians compliance with the just demands of so it has required a fearful war n i ng to the oppressed, make the cry of the suffering find a hearing amid the din and the turmoil of business and revelry, which drowns all other sounds in this rich and rejoicing capita:. Let not us, Christians, be more obdurate thaw the Egypti-ins of old. The lesson has been a 'severe one—let us show that we have profited by it. It is a duty incumbent on every one—every one is called upon to do his best, and of course that best will differ materially in different circum stances. More especially are these remarks appro priate to those who are even yet making money from the sources of corruption. Many of them (we do not wish to speak invidiously) are, perhaps, respectable, church-going people, yet what profanation it will be if those hands which are ordinarily busied in sowing the seeds of death and gathering the profits of corruption, are to-morrow held up in gratitude to Heaven for arresting an evil they are doing their best to propagate ! Again, what mockery, what horrible hypocrisy it will seem if the grateful anthems be chaunted in those churches whose graveyards have done and are yet doing such fatal service to the pestilence ! Yes, let us be thankful to Heaven, but in GOD'S name let us be in earnest. If sickness and sorrow and pestilence and death be evils—evils worthy of being mentioned in our addresses to OMNIPOTENCE, then they are surely worthy of human thought and human care. If the matter be sufficiently important that the churches should be opened for a special service in consequence, then assuredly it is worth while that the grave yards should be closed. The Government have ordered a day to be kept as a festival ; it re mains to be seen whether they will be equally ready to enforce anti- cholera reforms — whether, for instance (one example out of a hundred), they will take off the iniquitous window-tax, which excludes light and air from the noisome cellar. We might fill up many columns, and yet leave the enumeration incomplete. The subject has, however, been so often reiterated of late that recapitulation is almost needless. We trust sincerely that the holiday of to-morrow will impress upon every thinking brain and feeling heart the imperative duty imposed upon them, namely, that while they thank GOD for His mercy, they must (more than ever) be mindful of their own duty. Among the various texts of the many sermons that will be preached to-morrow, there will be few more appropriate to the occasion than the maxim above-mentioned—" Help yourself, and then Heaven will help you." And few among the chaunts composed for the occasion will be so well-timed as the American poet's always apposite " Psalm of Life." " Trust no future, howe'er pleasant, Let the dead past bury its dead, Act, act in the living present, Heart within and God o'erhead." The able and caustic rebuff of Lord LONDONDERRY, in reply to the Orange circular, issued by the village conclave, held at Dundram, has, it would seem, ren dered very irate that little nest of insignificant bigots. They are very indignant that a nobleman, of his Lordship's political tendencies, should not join in ex pressions of condolence with the dismissed Orange men, and should refuse the sanction of his high name to a manifesto condemnatory of the Irish Govern ment, for acts which have won the approval of every reasonable and honest man in the British empire. We are not surprised that the terms of dignified rebuke in which his Lordship's admirable letter is couched should be deeply and keenly felt. The con 'elusiveness of his reasoning, the sound principles of loyalty and Christian feeling which he enunciates, must be very distasteful to men who could indulge in triumphant rejoicings at the recollection of the murderous scenes of Dolly's Brae—men who have proved themselves more remorseless than the un civilized and vengeful savage. The wild un• taught Indian will gloat over the bloody trophies won from the invaders of his woods and wilds; he wields his tomahawk and scalping-knife against the pale-faced usurper of his hunting grounds, who speaks not his language nor worships his gods. But the Ulster Orangeman will shoot down the innocent child, the feeble old woman, and the poor being that even the ferocious savage would have spared. The idiot (!) meets no mercy at his hands. To keep alive the recollection of an unjust and effete Ascendancy, he would shed the blood of his fellow-man--the inhabitant of the same island—the worshipper of the same GOD—the believer in the same redemption. How humiliating to our common humanity to reflect upon such atrocities ! The merciless red-skin is outsavaged in ferocity by these vile factionists, yet it is to sympathise with wretches who glory in deeds like these, that the generous and sober-thinking people of England are appealed to. But we glory to say the only response that appeal has received is one of deep and universal execration. In all the sympathetic meetings which have been held by the Irish Orangemen—in all the addresses and resolutions which they have issued, has there been one word of sorrow or remorse for the innocent blood that was shed? Oh, no 1 These revolting horrors have evoked a song of triumph from every bigot in that wretched land. lo Triumphe ! has been sung by every insane fanatic, from M'ILWAINE, of Belfast, to the notorious TRESHAM GREGG, of Dublin. There is a chivalrous disposition in generous minds to sympathise with the unfortunate, and we can conceive in how painful a position many of the high-minded gentlemen of Ireland have been placed towards Lord RODEN by the indiscretion of that nobleman's Orange sympathisers. Many of the most respected and respectable amongst the gentry, nobility, and clergy of Ireland, who appreciate the amiable private qualities of that nobleman, and whose approval would, we believe, be more valued by him than " a whole theatre" of the furious fanatics with whom he has the misfortune to have formed so unholy an alliance, have been coerced to give public expres sion to their condemnation of the part taken by his Lordship in the unfortunate scenes at Castlewellan—scenes, which these wretched bigots who countenanced them should, if they were affected by the ordinary feelings of humanity, endeavour to hide for ever in the darkness of undisturbed obli vion, scenes which none possessed of the smallest sensibility can think on without pain, and which the absurd and wicked agitation of the " sympathisers" is every day exhibiting in more hideous colours. " Quem Deus vult perdere, ille prius dementat." The folly of these Orangemen will, we feel assured, soon bring their wicked career to a close. The spirit of malig nant intolerance manifested in their addresses and resolutions is arraying against them all the worth and respectability, the talent and virtue of the land. Even in the county of Down, the present headquarters of discord and bigotry, the factionists have been able to secure the sanction or sympathy of but a very incon siderable section of the landed proprietors and gentry ; indeed, with the exception of Lord DOWNSRIRE and a few others, who possessed some property and in fluence, all the other sympathisers are the mere dregs of the Orange Lodges. They have to be sure KEOWN, the Orange High-Sheriff, and by what legerdemain he wriggled himself into this high office we cannot well conceive. It is one of the strongest evidences of the unhealthy social condition of Ireland to see men like this, of small fortune and less influ ence, chosen to fill places of trust and honour. He is, howevever, an Orangeman—the brother-in-law of the Grand Master, WILLIAM BEER!, and the protege of the Deputy Grand Master of Ireland ; perhaps these qualifications had some influence in his appoint ment. But even Sheriff KEOWN, with all his vapouring, had not the courage to call a public meeting in the county town. How gladly, how exultingly, would he have done this, if he were not well aware that the sense of the country would be against him. No, he knew he dare not do this, and, therefore, con tented himself by inviting a few fools and bigots to a hole-and- corner meeting in a paltry vil lage. The furiou; resolutions and addresses con cocted on the occasion have been circulated through the country, and have received well• merited rebukes from many of the talented and Christian noblemen and gentlemen to whom they were addressed. Sheriff KEOWN appears particularly furious against Lord LONDONDERRY for his crushing reply to the Dundrum Circulars—a reply which is,, creditable to that nobleman's understanding, and does honour to his loyalty and patriotism. KEOWN has stepped forth on the occasion as a candidate for literary fame. The mantle of WILLIAM BEERS appears to have fallen upon him ; indeed he seems likely to outdo that meek gentleman in silly petulance and unreasoning bigotry. He attacks Lord LONDONDERRY in terms of vulgar personality, which that gallant nobleman can well I afford to despise. K EOWN 'S logic is as absurd " his presumption ; he says, "I do not believe but you are seeking Wbig favours, because you refused to attend a county meeting against the rate in aid." KEOWN thinks his Lordship politically dishonest be , cause he will not narrow his patriotism to the Black North. He says— You call the declaration that a premeditated insult has been attempted on the Protestant interest in Ireland , under the authority of our P rotestant Queen, 6mischie vous and wicked. I regard i t as true and necessary." Can anything be conceived more monstrously ab • surd and ,presumptuous than this—a paltry squireen having the folly to place his stupid contradiction in contrast with the sound reasoning of a highminded, venerable, and experienced nobleman ? Lord LON DONDERRY must feel crushed by the weight of KEOWN'S ipse dinit! lie then repeats the dull nonsense about Lord CLARENDON and the POPE, the Bishopric of Limerick, and, " though last not least," in the Sheriff's own words, "a Jesuitical, back-stairs letter, written by one of the favoured creed," &c. The writer of that letter is one whose blameless life Mr. KEOWN would do well to imitate. Mr. FITZSDXON'S public cha racter has ever been consistent and manly, while in private life he is respected for his amiable qualities and the practice of the social virtues. Mr. KNOWN would drive Lord CLARENDON from the government of Ireland. We have no doubt he would, we have no doubt his vile faction would plunge the country into% civil war to carry out their malignant passions. How we wish our voice, our words, our advice, could reach those deluded persons; we would appeal to them in the name of humanity, of truth, and of Christian feeling, to offer up their dark passions at the altar of their bleeding country, and unite in peace and love with the good and wise in their endeavours to improve the moral, social, and physical condition of a miserable people, to aid the Government in establishing peace and order, and thus to secure for themselves the respect of man and the blessing of GOD, instead of being a shame and a disgrace to the civilized world, a foul blot on the page of history. We cannot hope that our advice will be heeded by these unfortunate and misguided persons, but we would earnestly call upon all the rational and Christian men that, from folly, or fashion, or early prejudices, may have joined the Orange body, to come out from amongst them. We would - call upon Lord RODEN and all others, who can have no sympathy with the violators of the law and the shedders of innocent blood, to abandon their mad orgies and insane processions, and thus give practical lessons of peace and love. We would implore Lord RODEN to withdraw the sanction of his high name from those nurseries of evil passions, the Orange lodges of Ireland—in them the Irish Protestant youth are indoctrinated in principles of ill will and uncharitableness :against their fellow men and fellow-Christians; and if Lord RODEN will persist in countenancing such unhallowed confedera tions, we trust the Irish Government will take efficient steps to put an end to secret societies in reland. rHE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The PRESIDENT of the Republic has accorded an amnesty, by virtue of which 700 of the insurgents of June, 1848, at present detained at Belle Isle, will be set at liberty. This important fact was announced to the Assembly by the Minister of the Interior during the course of the sitting on Monday. Shortly after the PRESIDENT had taken the chair the discus sion commenced on the Bill introduced by the late Ministry, authorising the transportation of the in surgents of June to Algeria. During the course of the discussion— M. Ferdinand Barrot, Minister of the Interior, said that he should apprise the Assembly of a fact which would materially modify the Bill. The Pre sident of the Republic, in virtue of the right con ferred on him by the decree of the 27th of June, 1848, had ordered the liberation of the greatest number of the:insurgents contained in Belle Isle. He only excepted those who had already been convicted of crimes or offences by courts of justice previous to the period of their arrest, and those who by the violence of their conduct since their arrest exposed themselves to a just and severe chastisement on account of their spirit of revolt. The exceptions amounted to about 500. The first consequence of chat aat would be a considerable reduction in the credit demanded to carry the project into effect. The Government, relying on the efficacy of the existing laws, and confiding,in the measures it intended to sub mit to the Assembly, answered for the maintenance of tranquillity. At the moment when he resolved strictly to enforce, in the name of the safety of the Republic and of the entire society, the execution of the laws of repression, the President did not hesitate to show himself generous. As respected the establishment of the penitentiary colony, a place situated near Bathua had been chosen, but the neighbouring country being now in a state of fermentation in consequence of the revolt of some Arab tribes, all the troops disposable nad taken the field, and none could be spared for the defence of the new establishment. He accordingly proposed to refer the project to the committee in order to be amended. M. Crouseilhes, the reporter, having concurred in the opinion of the Minister, the Bill was sent back to the committee. 61. Rouher, Minister ofJustice, next rose and de posited on the table a Bill on transportation. It was as follows : " Article 1. In every case where the penalty of death, Abolished by the sth article of the Constitution, is applicable, that penalty shall be replaced by transporta tion and confinement in a citadel situated out of the continental territory of the Republic, and fixed by law. l'he citadel of Zaoudze, near the island of Mayotte, shall serve for that destination.—(Loud interruptions on the Left.) " Art. 2. The Island of PADIRLIZI and the Marquises Islands shall serve for the transportation of convicts sentenced to the penalty mentioned in the 17th article of the Penal Code. " Art. 3. In case the jury should bring in a verdict with extenuating circumstances, if the penalty pro nounced.by the law be that of transportation in a citadel, the Court may apply either the penalty of transports don or imprisonment. " Art. 4. Condemnations to transportation shall not involve civil death, but merely civil degradation. " Art. 5. The Government shall determine the mode of employing the convicts who should demand employ ment, and provide for the maintenance of those who bhould not be able to live by their own resources. _ " Art. 6. The present law is only applicable to crimes committed subsequently to its promulgation." This proposition has excited the anger of the oppo sition journals of all shades. The trials at Versailles were concluded on Monday. The counsel for the prisoners persevered in their refusal to plead unless they were permitted by the Court to adopt their own line of defence. Other couusel were officially appointed by the Court to defend the prisoners. At the sitting of the Court on Monday, M. Moussoir, of the Ver sailles bar, one of the counsel so appointed, rose and announced that in consequence of the ex pressed wish of the accused that they should not be defended, the counsel appointed by the Court felt it incumbent on them to abstain from taking any further part in the proceedings. The President declared the pleadings closed, and summed up the evidence. The jury then retired to consider of their verdict, and yesterday morning they returned it, acquitting Colonel Forestier, National Guards ; Louriou, R.; Angelot ; Delahay ; Berme, R.; Verion ; A. Bureau; Maillard ; Merliot ; Lemaitre ; Achintre ; and finding the others guilty. The following are the sentences pronounced by the Court. The letter R is to mark such as are representatives of the people in the Legislative As sembly : To DEPORTATION—CoI. Guinard, R. ; Deville, R.; Gambun, R.; Bach, R.; Schmitz, R. ; Paya; ['jibes, R. ; Vautier ; Langlais ; Fayalle, R.; Haigue, R.; Lamazieres ; Dufelix ; Sergeant Commissaire, R.; Lebon (Napoleon) ; Andre ; Chipron. To IMPRISONMENT—Suchet, Fraboulet, Maubue. , These sentences are universally stigmatised as far too severe, and the prisoners are regarded as martyrs. General BARAGUAY D'HILLIERS left Paris for Marseilles on Sunday evening last, accompanied by his two aides-de-camp, Major DIEN and Capt. FAY. The committee appointed by the Legislative As sembly to institute an inquiry into the condition of the French navy held its first sitting on Monday. M. DUFAURE was appointed President, MM. DARU and BENOIST D'AZY Vice-Presidents, and MM. COLLAS and DAIIIRAEL secretaries. A search for firearms was made by the police on Monday last in Paris at the residence of M. HEaVE, one of the editors of the Voix du Peuple. None, however, were discovered. Some sensation was occasioned in Paris by the appearance in the Journal des Debats of what may be called the manifesto of the Monarchical, or as they delight to term themselves the Moderate party, in which it is declared that the moderate party consists of the Legitimatists, the Orleanists, and the Impe rialists, to the :exclusion of the Republicans ; that party . is advised to hold together until the time fixed for revising the Constitution shall arrive, when they may upset the Republic, and is re commended in the mean time to adopt the STAN LEY policy of obstruction to all measures tending to ameliorate the condition of the people in order to prevent the Republic from con solidating itself. The Siecle comments on this manifesto, and, in order to show how much more liberal the Republican regime is, supposes HENRY V. to be on the throne, and a journal to publish an analo gous definition of the Moderate party, running thus:— The Moderate party is composed of three grand opinions—the opinion Orleanist, the opinion Im perialist, and the Republican opinion. Would not the Procureur- General, it asks, be at once let loose upon the offending journal ? Again, :it supposes the case of the Count DR PARIS, with the regency of the Prince DE JoINvILLE, and puts the hypothetical case of a Journal defining the Moderate party to be com- THE SUN, LONDON. WEDNESDAY EVENING NOVEMBE'R 14, posed of three grand opinions, the Legitimist, the Itnpc,rialist, and the Republican—what would follow ? and the answer most truly is, a prosecution by the Procurerr-G&neral. We trist the authorities of the Republic will be too wise to trouble the Procurcur-General ; on the contrary, they ought rather to encourage these out pourings on the part of the " Moderates"—forewarned is forearmed. At the sitting of the Assembly yesterday, the de puties of the Mountain abstained from attending, in order to mark their indignation and disgust at the sentences passed on their colleagues by the High Court of Versailles. It was at one time determined that they should all resign en masse, but the deter mination vas not persisted in. PEACHEM and LocxlT are reconciled. The POPE has addressed an autograph letter to his "dearly be loved son," the ci-devant Voltairian M. THIERS. The Coastitutionnel says :—" The Five per Cents. have risen nearly 1 fr. since Saturday. This is caused by what has transpired of the statement which the new Minister of Finance, it is said, will present this day h the Assembly. It is said that, by means of the sun' now in the Treasury, which, it is affirmed, is 117 milions, and by maintaining, during the year 1850, the luty on potable liquors, the Minister con sidered that he could provide for all necessities with out having recourse to a loan, provided the 100 millions lent by the Bank of France were allowed to remain at his disposal. The Minister intends, it is also said, to propose that a parliamentary inquiry should be instituted, the results of which should serve as the basis for the modifications to be effected in the system of taxation from 1851." The captain of the French steam-packet Luxor arrived at Marseilles, announces that he met the French fleet on the 26th ult., 15 miles from Malta. PARIS BOURSE, TUESDAY, Nov. 13. We have had another very firm market to-day; prices kept steadiy looking up, Threes touching 57f., and Fives 90f. 20c., a. which point some considerable sales were made, to realise which caused a slight re-action, the market cbsing about the same as yesterday; Threes for the account 56f. 80c., and Fives at 891. 70c. The market closed as fellows:-Threes, for cash, 56f. 55c.; for Ac count, 561.80 c.; Fives, for cash, 89f. 60c.; for Account, 891. 70c.; 3ank of France, Shares, 2345 f.; Spanish Threes, 351 25c.; Ditto Fives and Neapolitans not quoted.

Exchange on London, 50 45. PORTUGAL. Advices have been received from Lisbon to ;he 9th instant. The American Minister persists in his demand for cornpensation for the loss of the American privateer Globe, in 1812. It would appear that the Portuguese Government is now about to reap a just retribution for its shameless breaches of faith towards its foreign cre ditors. The Estandarte states, that overtures for a loan of 45,0001. having very recently been made to the house of Baring Brothers, of London, on the part of the Portuguese Government, those gentlemen re plied as follows : "A country which is under the necessity of applying to a foreign nation for so trifling a loan as 45,0001. must surely be totally ruined. We should have supposed that so small a sum could easily have been raised in• any one street in Lisbon ; but your proposal convinces us that the finances of Portugal are indeed in a lamentable state, and this conviction renders it impossible for us to listen to it." GERMANY AND THE NORTHERN STATES. AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY. An article in the official journal of Vienna of the Bth states that the Austrian Government has resolved that for the future political prisoners shall no longer be chained, but be kindly treaty, be allowed better food, and even, if they please, procure it themselves ; that they shall have the use of books, newspapers, paper, and ink, be permitted to communicate with each other, and, under the surveillance of the autho rities correspond with their families ; and, finally, wear their own clothes, and not be subject to the same labour as ordinary criminals. The German Reform states that a few days ago the military authorities of Vienna sent to all the news papers a long criticism on a book, published by the ex-Deputy SCHUZEUEA, with orders to insert it without modification or comment ; but the only journal that obeyed was the. official Gazette. The Austrian Government has convoked a Con gress of all the maritime states of Germany to join in discussing measures for establishing general mari time and commercial laws for Austria and Germany. By a letter from Vienna of the Bth we learn that a Russian Consulate is to be established at Cracow. — Another letter of the same date states that, on the prayer of the POPE's Nuncio, the Austrian Govern ment has relieved the Hungarian Bishop RUDNIAN MKT from the sentence of detention for several years in a fortress, but ordered him to remain a convent for the present. Count CAIXOLY and four other Magyar state prisoners have been removed to the fortress of Theresienstadt, in Bohemia. PRUSSIA. The Prussian frigate the Eagle has sailed from Stettin for Schleswig Holstein. It is said that she will proceed to Eckernforde on purpose to tow out the Gefion, and convey that vessel, shoull the wind not be favourable, to a Prussian Port. The following questions have been submitted to the English Government for decision in relation to the Gefion :—l. Does, or does not, a prize taken by one party, refitted for war purposes, and moored within any given port, come within the scope of an armis tice guaranteeing the status quo as regards all parts and portions of the territory over which the status quo is ex tended ? 2. Can, or can not, this vessel be removed as a neutral, under the flag of one of the guaranteeing parties, either to evade the effects of the status quo, or to avoid sailing under a flag not only disavowed by the opposite and co-contracting party, but exposing the vessel carrying such flag to be driven pack or impounded for breach of convention ? The Swabian Mercury says that the treaty incor porating the principality of Hohenzollern Simaringen with Prussia is concluded and ratified, and has now only to receive the approval of the Prussian Cham hers. Nevertheless it appears thatithis important act, by which Prussia obtains a footing in Southern Ger many, has led to some diplomatic correspondence between the great Powers. The Feuille de Franc fort of the 11th says, it is informed on good authority that the Ministry have heard that the Hanoverian Government has given its sanction to the treaty concluded on the 30th September between Austria and Prussia, relative to the formation of a provisional central committee for the administration of the empire. The adhesion of Wirtemberg and of Baden had also been received. HAZNi OVER. The General Assembly of the States of Hanover was opened on the Bth. HAMBURG H. The Senate or Executive Government of the Free City of Hamburgh, not being able to come to an understanding with the Constituent Assembly with respect to the Constitution, has drawn up one of a liberal character, which has been favourably received by the public. Before coming into operation, the new Constitution will have to be submitted to the old Legislative Assembly. TURKEY. The French Siecle publishes the following:--« w have received, by way of Germany, accounts from Turkey to the 27th ult., three days later than those brought by the Tancrede. This news has produced a very great sensation at Vienna, where it was known on the Bth, as it states, that not only has France and England assured the Porte of their support, but that these. Powers excite the SULTAN to seize on this opportunity to rid himself of the suzerainty claimed by Russia in the East. Without taking to the letter the word excite, we can affirm, on good information, that the attitude assumed by the two great liberal nations has produced an immense effect in the Ottoman Empire. As to the Danubian provinces, they perhaps give themselves up to exaggerated hopes on the subject. The Turkish troops have met with an enthusiastic reception at Jassy, and that feeling was redoubled when the General announced that the SULTAN, in gratitude for the conduct of his Moldo-Wallachian subjects, would shortly withdraw the corps of observation, and invite Russia to recal her troops. The political question takes the lead over the religious one in the East, and Russia thus sees the lever broken which allowed her to agitate in Turkey by creating motives for intervention." The Wanderer of Vienna prilies the following from Constantinople of th e . c27til u't. :—" A letter hr.s been received from FUAD EFFENDI, dated St. Petersburgh, in which he says,--' From the first conference I have had with Count NESSELRGDE, re lative to the refugees, I think that the Emperor of RUSSIA will not insist on the extradition of the re fugees, and that this affair cannot compromise Euro pean peace.'" ITALY. In its sittings of the Bth, the Chamber of Deputies of Turin confirmed the election of Advocate DANIEL MANIN at Genoa. The Legge observes, that MANIN not being naturalised, the Chamber ought not to have confirmed the election. The new Piedmontese Minister of War, ALFONSO DELLA MARMORA, has addressed a proclamation to the soldiers, in which, after praising their valour and fidelity to the KING and the constitution, he promises to consider carefully the existing laws concerning the army, with a view to their improvement. Three deputations, which had proceeded from Rome to the POPE, to entreat him to return to that city, returned home on the 4th. They were most gra ciously received by Pius IX., who said to them that in all probability it would not be long before he returned to his States, but that he had not yet fixed the period of his arrival. The ex-Ministers, LUNATI and Rossr, who had received an order of exile, have obtained leave to return to their homes. The Legge of Turin publishes a letter from Rome of the 3d, positively announcing that Pius IX. will very shortly return to Rome with M. DE CORCELLES, on the declaration of the latter that the capital is in a state of perfect tranquillity. The correspondent says that this news has been brought by MM. BOULA TIGNIER and FREMY. The POPE had given a very favourable reception to the deputation from Rome which had waited upon him at Portici. The Giornale di Roma of the 3d publishes a de cree of the King of NAPLES, dated 21st ult., fixing the conditions required of teachers for the exercise of their profession. By this decree all persons desirous of teaching a science, either in Echools or privately, must be provided with a royal permis sion and a certificate of authorisation from the university. They are to pass an examination in writing on the Christian catechism before the faculty of theology, in the presence of the Bishops. Any one desirous of teaching only reading and writing is to have a certificate of study for literature, and pass the examination on the catechism. Teachers of either sex are to be at least 28 years of age. Teachers of fine arts and foreign languages are subjected to the same rules and obliged to pass an examination in the art and language they profess to teach. The religious corporations authorised to teach, and the teachers in ecclesiastical seminaries, are exempted from the above decree. All permissions hitherto granted are revoked. lONIAN ISLANDS. i IA supplement to the Corfu Journal, of the 25th tilt., contains a manifesto of the Lord High Com missioner, dated Argostoli, 24th, granting an amnesty to all persons implicated in the last insurrection of Cephalonia, and promising to lay before the Parliament the documents which justify his acts. Three persons at present under prosecution are excepted from the amnesty, on account of their being seriously compro mised. They are PIERATO OUTROCCI, NICOLO ME TAXA, and GERASIMO SDRIN. The question of indemnity to be awarded to individuals for losses experienced in the districts of Scala, Leo, and Catoleo during the late insurrection, is to be submitted to the Senate. The police force is to be increased in Cephalonia, and regular communications are to be established between Argostoli and Zante. LAW INTELLIGENCE. BAIL COURT.—(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Justice PATTESON.) COMMON COUNCIL ELECTION AT EXETER. Mr. MONTAGUE SMITH was instructed to move for a rule calling upon Mr. William Davey to show cause why an information in the nature of a quo warrants should not issue, requiring him to show by what authority he claims to be a town councillor for the city of Exeter. Mr. Davey was declared to be elected a councillor for the ward of St. Mary at the recent election for mayor. The affidavit upon which he moved stated that at the election there were two retiring councillors, and four gentlemen offered themselves as candidates to fill up the two vacancies, namely, Messrs. Cuthbert, Flood, Davey, and Evans, and the result of the voting papers showed that for Mr. Cuthbert there were 159 votes, for Mr. Flood 147, for Mr. Davey, 147, and for Mr. Evans 108. The first was accordingly declared duly elected in the usual way, but under the 35th section of the Municipal Corporation Act the assessors were re quired to decide which of the two gentlemen who had the same number of votes should be the successful candidate. and they determined upon retaining the name of Mr. Davey. No objection arose upon the manner in which the assessors exercised their functions, but there was one bad vote given for Mr. Davey, and instead, therefore, of Mr. Davey's number being equal to that of Mr. Flood, it was one less. It would seem that James Crouch, a hair dresser, of South-street, Exeter, delivered a voting paper in the name of William Crouch, which appeared in the burgess list, and was re presented to be that of an elector living in South-street. Mr. Justice PATTESON suggested that the real person might have voted under the assumed name put down in the burgess list. Mr. M. SMITH urged, however, that his name did not at all answer that which was in the burgess roll. Mr. Justice PATTESON— Still, it may be a mistake in the burgess roll. Mr. M. SMITH said the sth and 6th Vic., section 41, provided that no misnomer or inaccurate description of any person, body corporate, or place, should be held bad, provided the description was such as to be commonly understood, and be apprehended the description in this case, the Christian name being quite different, could not be understood to mean that of William Crouch; but, even admitting that it did, the elector ought to have voted in his right name, as provided by the 33d section of the Act; and, under these two circumstances, he contended that Mr. Flood was entitled to the seat in the Council Chamber. Mr. Justice PATTESON—Has the point ever been raised before? Mr. M. SIXTH was not aware that it had. Mr. Justice PATTESON—You may take a rule. Rule nisi accordingly. LEEDS, DEWSBURY, AND MANCHESTER RAILWAY. Mr. HoDGEs was instructed to move for a rule to show cause why a mandamus should not issue directed to the London and North-Western Railway, requiring them to purchase the necessary land and complete the Birstal Branch of the Leeds, Dewsbury, and Man chester Railway. The affidavit upon which he moved disclosed that in the year 1845 an Act of Parliament was obtained by a company for making and maintaining the Leeds, Dewsbury, and Manchester Railway, with brsnches, and, in the following year, they obtained another Act authorising the present branch, which provided that all the works should be completed within five years from the date thereof. Under the pro visions of these Acts, the compulsory powers of purchase in which had already expired, the main line had been constructed, and was now in operation; but the Birstal branch, which was about three miles and a half in length, was understood to have been abandoned. The works and the powers of the Act having been transferred to the London and North-Western Company by an Amal gamation Act, passed in 1847, the mandamus would therefore have to be directed to them. This application was:made upon the authority of the case of the "Queen against the Eastern Counties Rail way Company," reported in the 10th Adolphus and Ellis, page 531, where the Court distinctly laid it down that where a company, after they had obtained an Act to make a particular line, proposed to abandon part of it, they could be compelled to complete the whole by mandamus. Mr. Justice PATTESON-But that was a peculiar case; there they had an Act of Parliament to make a lino from London to Norwich, but they chose to stop short at Colchester, to the great injury and fraud of the parties who had originally subscribed to it. Here, however, it appears they have not constructed any part of the line. Mr. HoncEs said they had, inasmuch as they had made the line from Leeds by Dewsbury to join the Man chester and Leeds Railway, and he apprehended this branch must be taken as part of the whole scheme sanc tioned by the Act, and that under the decision of the authority he had stated they could be bound to execute all the works specified in the Act. Mr. Justice PATTESON—But the application in that case ultimately failed. Mr. HODGES admitted that it did, but it was through some defect in the writ, and not on the merits. Tho principle was nevertheless clearly laid down as he had stated it, and in the case of " Cowen o. Wilkin son," as reported in the Law Times, the Master of the Rolls had adopted the same rule, holding that the Direct London and Portsmouth Railway could not make only a part of their line without the sanction of another Act of Parliament. Several gentlemen who joined in the affidavit in support of the application would be se riously injured by the non-execution of the line, more especially one of them, a Mr. Appleyard, who, upon the faith that the branch would be made, had spent a for tune in purchasing an estate near to Birstal, and erected mining works, at considerable expense, within 300 yards of the line ; and his Lordship would, therefore, see that, if the line were nut constructed, it would be productive of great mischief in a district it was proposed to ac commodate. Mr. Justice PATTESON said he would look over the affidavits, and take time to consider the application. EXCHEQUER.—(THIS DAY.) (Sittings in Banco.) The Court was occupied during the whole morning in hearing the arguments in a question of goods in trans,tu, raised upon a special case, but which involved no feature of public interest warranting a detailed report. COMMON PLEAS.—(THIS DAY.) The Court took the special paper to-day, but no case of any general interest was heard during the morning. SECONDARIES —(THIS DAY.) NEW JURY.--To-day a ncw jury was called to servo for the ensuing half-quarter. There were severalobjections made on the ground of parties being over aim Mr. ligdson 1849, sr.id, gentlemen would save theroselveg trouble by loek- . ing at the li.t, and if they were exempt, the Depiny of :he V, , ro . d would strik., out their nam, s. One gentleman Wal exen,:,ed on the ground that he kept a post oflice ; another of to serve on the ground that he was an alien. Mr. Hudson said it was a valid excuse here, but the Dll2lO would be put in the list at tho Central Criminal Court, where his services might be required. Mr. Hudson said that serving on this jury for six week:, for a few hours, would Exempt the jurors for three years from being called on to serve at the Central Criminal, or either of the superior Courts. There was only one case, which was undefended. MONEY and Cutvlivit.E.RClAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. There was rather an excited market for Cotton at Liverpool yesterday, and prices of all kinds were dearer. The sales, including 4,200 on speculation, amounted to 8,000 bales, and comprised 6,500 American, 1,000 Per nam and Maranham, 200 Surats at 40. to 5d., and 200 Sea Islands at 114 d. to Is. 10d. per lb.—Railway Shares were dull, and prices had a downward tendency. The Corn Market to-day is at Monday's rates, and the arrivals of Foreign are small. The continental ad vices received to day report favour ably of the French Bourse. At Amsterdam there was no particular variation in the funds. The Dutch Two and-a-Half per Cents. were 534 to 7-16ths. The quota tion at Vienna on the 9th instant was 93i for the Metallics. The letters and papers by the American packet have been delivered this morning. The ship ments of specie from New York from Jan. 1 to the 27th ult. were 3,646,534 dollars, and the aggre gate shipments of the week to date, were half a million of dollars. The imports of goods for the week to the 25th ult. amounted to 1,162,614 dollars, and the total of foreign dry goods entered for home consumption was 375,646 dollars. The tolls from the New York canals have fallen off this year, but those from railroads in creased. The Money-market was easy, but an impres sion existed that a good deal of the New York State money would soon be pouring in from the west for re demption, and faster than the banks can provide for it. Upon the subject of the Cotton crops, accord ing to our reading, the accounts are favourable, but the Liverpool speculators are still going ahead. That we may not be thought to write from mere bias, we give an extract from the New York Circular of a well-known broker, Mr. T. J. Stewart, who states— " The bulk of the purchases of the last two days were for Northern Continental ports and Havre. " The continuation of two weeks more fine ripening weather for the crop, which I have now to "record, con firms me in my previous ideas on the subject of the probable yield, from the peculiar position of the plant, and only shows the futility of all early estimates of a short crop founded on partial injuries at various points of the growing season. What the amount of that yield will be is, of course, subject to great uncertainty, as much must depend on the range of prices, and the weather hereafter for picking out, and it would require such a combination of circumstances to make it a large one, that I feel warranted in saying a large crop—one equal to the average of the two last—cannot be made. It is my opinion, which I give with due diffidence, that we have now had ample growing season to make at least 2,160,000 bales. The range of the thermometer and the absence from storms this next month must determine the addition to it up to the date of a killing frost, in the heart of the cotton region ; and after that date even we must be governed by the wea ther we may be favoured with for picking out up to the Ist of January, which is considered to close the matter up sufficiently to enable estimates to be made within a range of 100,000 bales, although instances are numerous where plantations have been picked every season with great success, up to the period of preparing the ground for the new crop, in February and March." From Canada we learn that the arrivals of shipping at Quebec, this year to the 27th ult., have exceeded those to the like date of last year by 10,310 tons. In the Montreal market superfine flour was at 20s.i to 20s. 6d., and extra fine 20s. 6d. to 21s. 3d., chiefly for shipment. Bank Exchange on London 114 to 12. Freights firm at 3s. to 3s. 6d. per barrel for flour to Liverpool. Canada has lately been doing a good trade with the United States, and this year the balance is pretty near between exports and imports across the frontier without the aid of either annexation or separation. There is no later Mexican news, and from Venezuela we hear of a split among the Monagas party, which pro mises again to disturb the country. By this opportunity we have accounts from Jamaica. The New Tariff Bill bad been passed prior to the 20th ultimo, and included a clause to tax all goods that had come in since the sth ult. The ad valorem duty bad been increased to 4 per cent.; drawback free. The settlement of the speculative account in the English Stock Market engrosses chief attention, and the Bulls having the means to fulfil their contracts, the quotations have rallied, and Consols have been 93 to for Transfer, and 931 4 for Account. Exchequer-bills have realised 46. F. to 495. premium, being rather higher. Bank Stock is steady, at 198. In the Foreign Market Spanish Five per Cent. Stock is worth 164, and Portuguese Four per Cent. 33. Mexican Bonds have been 264, and dull. Russian Bonds are 108 to 1084. Dutch Two-and-Half per Cents. have been 534 to 534. Shares are rather flat. As all places of public resort in the City will be closed to-morrow, there will then be no article under this head. O :E O'CLOCK. cLnsE , 0 P 10Es OF .RITISTI FUNDi PRICES. Bank Stock 3,per Cent.
