Victory, which has hitherto followed the banners of the Hungarians, has, it seems, for the moment, deserted them. GEORGEY, whose proclamation of victory, sublime in its simple brevity, has resounded throughout Europe, has, for the moment, been com pelled -to lay down his arms. Such is the fortune of war. It is needless to say that we are grieved, inexpressibly grieved by this intelligence, for we have rejoiced in believing that the good fortune of the Hungarians was equal to the goodness of their cause. Nevertheless, confident in the righteousness of that cause, defeat renders us in no wise despairing or desponding : " Freedom's battle once begun, Entailed from bleeding sire to snn, Though baffled oft is ever won." And the Hungarians will win ultimately. Such a cause is never rendered desperate, save by the short comings of its defenders. The Hungarian chiefs have hitherto proved themselves worthy of their cause and their position. Let them only remain firm. The prayers and the heart's best wishes of England are with them ; and more than that, Lord PALMERSTON has publicly espouied their cause. To him Hungary now looks with hope, and England with confidence. The English people have identified themselves with the cause of Hungarian independence. How, then, can the success of that cause be a matter of doubt ? The sympathy of the English people for the Hungarians, as daily testified by crowded and unanimous meetings in all parts of the kingdom, has entirely fulfilled our anti cipations. Independently of its individual value— apart from the effective influence which such signi ficant demonstrations cannot but exercise on European affairs—there i 4 in this enthusiastic expression of public opinion something highly characteristic of the times we live in. Imagine the possibility of such doings some centuries back ! Imagine the people of even this country assembling to declare their sym pathy with the " rebellious" struggles of another people ! In former times that effective watchword of cunning tyranny, " Diviser pour regner," was prac tically if not intentionally adopted universally. The people of the various European nations never came in contact then, save only " As ardent warriors meet with hateful eyes." In those favoured times there was no " dependence on foreigners." Now, however, "noun avons change tout cela," civilization and commerce aivancing hand in -hand, have proclaimed the common brotherhood of the human race. A wrong committed in Hungary now thrills through the heart of England. The names of BEM and GEORG EY are familiar with us as household words, their victories over their oppressors are to the people of this country a source of more than personal satisfaction. Is it, then, a visionary belief that the hours of tyranny are numbered when the hearts of nations are thus unanimous and resolved ? Public opinion is now a recognised power. Dr. VAUGHAN, in the eloquent speech which he delivered the other day at Manches ter, and to which we have already alluded, spoke thus truthfully of the might of public opi nion —" It is a power of its own order—it is without armies—it is without constables—it is without authorities of any artificial kind, and yet its very breath is law—its very look is penalty— the weakest apparently of all powers, it is by GOD'S Providence the mightiest of all." This mighty influ ence of public opinion, which is one of the chief glories of modern times, is mainly indebted to the invention of GUTTEMBURG for its efficacy, if not for its very existence. 'Without the Press, how could public opinion make itself known? Without a free Press, its efficiency would be weakness and its power l' th chim e P chimera. If the hearts of nations beat in sympathy , to is the vo i c e w hi c h proclaims their senti mentsoth the W world. as such E are the mouthpiece of the Peo ple ; we ourselves have again End again indig nantly denounced Austrian and Russian usurpation, and outrage; as such we h ave again and of the E ng li s h nation foragainproclaimedLet the heroic Hungarians. Have we spok en trul y? t he au la m l, s l s e o t readily contributed to the Hungarlan Lt Test the public meetings of daily occurrence, answer.mn But is it, can it be a matter of wond er that Englishmen should sympathise with a people struggling for their rights and their very existence ? Is it in any way surprising that the people of this country, who have themselves bought their own independence by days of deathful battle and years of unceasing exertions—i s it strange that the people of free England should feel their breasts burn exultingly at the tale of similar struggles f r similar rights by a noble and outraged people ? No; English sympathy for independence in Hungary, and everywhere else, is as natural as it is heartfelt, as real as it is enthusiastic. That sympathy so cordially granted to suffering and struggling Hun gary will, we confidently believe, ere long be proudly claimed by, and joyfully yielded to, Hungary trium phEnt and inderendent ! The inquiry into the state of mind of Mr. EDWARD VICARS, under the commission of lunacy recently issued by the Lord Chancellor, has been brought to a conclusion. After a patient investigaoon, continued during two successive days, and after hearing all the evidence that could be raked up in support of the commission, a highly respectable and intelligent jury returned a verdict of the perfect sanity of the alleged lunatic. This verdict was given without the slightest hesitation, and even without calling upon the able counsel for the party to enter upon his defence. But they had heard the close and searching examination to which Mr. VICARS was subjected; they listened to his clear and satisfactory answers and explanations, they witnessed his calm deportment, and no further doubt could remain upon their minds. The person who had been so long and so unjustly incarcerated is restored to the rights and privileges of a British subject, to the perfect control and management of his person and property. This is, indeed, an important decision —a decision that must exercise a material influence on the public mind, and lead to a speedy reform of the law of lunacy. A stronger illustra•ion could not possibly have been afforded of the iniquity of the existing law—a law that has been so frequently and so fearfully abused—that renders the boasted liberty of the subject an empty sound—that enables any two medical practitioners to sign a lettre de cachet, and to consign any of their fellow-citizens to the gloomy cells of a lunatic asylum without any oppor tunity being afforded of defending himself, or of calling upon his friends and neighbours to offer their testimony as to his perfect capacity for business and competency to manage his own affairs. Mr. VICARS had, it appears, while carrying on his business as a wine and spirit merchant, in partnership with his brother, been in the habit of drinking rather too freely. He had been extremely an noyed at the conduct of his wife, which perhaps led to the over-indulgence that terminated in an attack of delirium tremens. He had also formed some extraordinary notions on the subject of food and electricity. This was quite sufficient for the parties interested; two "skilful persons" were easily found to certify as to his delusions ; he was dragged from his home in the month of February, 1847, and car ried to Walton House Asylum, where he remained for twenty months, notwithstanding his repeated pro tests and reiterated applications for his liberation, and where, in all human probability, he would have lin gered out the remainder of his days, as thousands of sane men have done in similar establishments, had he not been providentially enabled to effect his escape in the month of October, 1848. In the interval his fur niture and property were sold by the direction of his brother and partner, and an account of the proceeds of the - sUle was positively refused, the party applied to stating that he was indemnified.from the consequences of such refusal by Mr. Al. VICARS. A friend who had manifested a kind interest in procuring the libe• ration, of the aggrieved party, was compelled to pay up a sum of 5001., which he owed to the firm, in consequence of his interference; or, to use Mr. M. VICARS' own words, " the part which Mr. BIRCHE' NOFF had taken, in endeavouring to release his brother from the lunatic asylum, had hastened on the demand for the repayment of that sum." While these who assisted the alleged lunatic were thus persecuted, his brother absolutely refused to advance him any money, even from his own property, to oppose the commission, although, as it appeared from his own evidence, supplying the petitioner with funds for the purpose of establishing the insanity. Had it nut been for the disinterested exertions of the Alleged Lunatics' Friend Society, and of their able solicitor, who obtained an order from the Lord Chancellor, that 2001. should be advanced to prepare the defence, the unfortunate gentleman would have been left without professional assistance to contend single-handed against the phalanx of counsel arrayed against him. It was true that Mr. VICARS had been examined during his confinement. Dr. Fonsinv, who "had been a visitor with magistrates to lunatic asylums for thirteen years," had examined the case on each of his quarterly visits, and twice at the rtquest of Dr LICHFIELD, and "satisfied himself that Mr. VICARS was not in a state of mind to manage his own affairs ; that he laboured under great delusions, and was not fit to be at large, and signed a certificate, with Mr. CHURTON, to that effect." But, unfortunately for the value of the testimony of the learned "visitor for thirteen years," he acknowledged that " the maximum time they (i.e., the magistrates and himself) took upon each visit to examine the case was five minutes ;" that " he did not test Mr. VICARS on the ordinary affairs of life, or on money matters ;" that " he thought him competent after conversing with him upon all subjects but food ;" and, on being further pressed, he admitted that Mr. VICARS "might be fit to be at large, but not to manage his affairs." Here, then, a direct proof is afforded of what we have so fre quently asserted, the utter inefficacy of the flying visits paid to asylums as a protection to those un justly incarcerated. Even when the attention is spe cially directed to a particular case, five minutes is the maximum time allowed for the examination, there is no testing on the ordinary affairs of life, or on money matters. The report of the proprietor is taken, and if the slightest eccentricity can be detected, a certi ficate is signed that the party " labours under great delusions, and is not fit to be at large," although subsequently it appears that he " may be fit to be at large," although not to be entrusted with the ma nagement of his affairs. The evidence of Dr. SOUTHEY was, perhaps, the most important of all. He had examined Mr. Vicaas twice, and on the first occasion " saw nothing to lead him to suppose his mind was unsound. On the second interview he touched upon the paints on which Mr. VICARS was said to have delusions, and he appeared to have curious notions of the power of electricity, He also said that lunatic asylums were fitted up with batteries, and that he had himself felt the effect of them. This (the witness considered) was a delusion; but upon all other points he remained rational and ' well." In reference to the extraordinary opinions respecting electricity, which were so strongly relied on in support of the commission, and which Mr. M. VICARS, in his evidence, stated to be " that people could be made mad by electricity ; that they could converse by it at any distance, and that by it he had heard voices from heaven," (Quere, the electric telegraph and thunder), Dr. SOUTHEY declared "that there was much yet to be discovered with respect to electricity; and it was not surprising that a partially educated man should have exaggerated notions of it." The Learned Doctor also added " that upon all ordinary cases he believed Mr. E. VICARS was sane, and it was his impression that it would be cruel to confine him. He thought it would be hard to deprive him of his civil rights. He also thought that he was fit to be a free agent in the dis posed of his property and his person, and the manage ment of his affairs, and that he would not think himself jz.stified in giving a certificate that would confine Mr. VICARS in a lunatic asylum." Upon this evidence the verdict was immediately given that restored Mr. VICARS to perfect freedom, but which could not recompense him for the unnecessary suffer ings he had undergone during his protracted im prisonment, nor fur the sale of his furniture and effects. We trust that Dr. SOUTHEY will not forget the important and constitutional principle he enun ciated in the present case in others that chance to be within the jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery. We would venture to remind him that in Mr. DYCE SOMBRE'S case he certified that " he was bound to admit that he could not elicit any positive delusions under which Mr. DYCE SOMBRE laboured, though, at the same time, he regretted to add, that he could feel no confidence that he was entirely free from such delusions," and that, "so far as respected the management of property, he entertained no doubt of his competency to take care of it." Did Dr. SOUTIIEY think it, therefore, hard to deprive Mr. D YCE SOMBRE of hit civil rights," or " believe that he was fit to be a free age n t i n t h e di sposal of h i s property and h i s person, and su eh the w a s managementnot the of cahsis,. Dr. affairs ?" s 0 Unfor tunatelynTHzy,s report, althou g h opposed by the affidavits of six professional gentl emen eminently distinguished for their skill and exp er i ence i n the treatment of cerebral diseases, prevented th e emancipation of SOMBRE, although, from th e resu l t o f the M presentcase,r. DYCE. there can be no doubt that if the opinion n of a jury were taken on his case also, it would be delivered without hesitation in favour of his sanity. Why should that inquiry be any longer refused? Mr. SOMBRE courts it. There can be little doubt as to the result, and yet he is kept an exile from England, unable to reside in the home of his adop tion without being liable at any moment to be seized and placed in strict confinement; and, although a handsome allowance is made for his support, he is not permitted to manage his person or property as he deems most expedient; and, above all, he is still ex posed to the degradation of being considered a lunatic, of unsound mind, incompetent to take care of himself. This is not right or proper, just or equitable, and we trust an adequate remedy may speedily be afforded. THE SUN, LONDON, gATURDAY EVENING, AUGUST 25, 1840. TUE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. The Presse, in the following article, attempts to prove that the surrender of GEORGEY was brought about by the diplomatic act of Lord PALMERSTuN, It says, under the head of explanations concerning the submission of the Hungarians— "No doubt now remains ; the war in Hungary is de finitively terminated. The numerous and circumstantial details which we receive from the German journals re • move every uncertainty and destroy all hope. The submission of Georgey is that of Hungary itself. But if the facts are known, it is not the same with the causes which have led to this sudden catastrophe. Those causes have not yet been published by any journal or any correspondence, but private communications, the exactitude of which we can guarantee, allow us now to point them out. They are not to be sought for in the state of affairs, which was certainly bad, but by no means desperate ; they are to be found in certain diplomatic negotiations, in which, we regret to say, our Government has played the saddest and most ridiculous part. For a long time past the Hunga rian question has engaged the attention of the English Government; it has done so in a twofold point of view— of commercial interest, Hungary promising to become an excellent market; and of political interest, and of the ascendancy which this war would give to Russia in Western Europe. The more the war was prolonged , the more considerable would that ascendancy b?come. When the English Government finds a difficulty in its hou t c r c What am d l oc o u e ts Lord ory Palmerston phrases, s w vit a ria y ti , hgoh it utt a t e o ts w the he informingpoint. France, he opens negotiations with Russia; he does not send an extraordinary ambassador, with great noise and pomp, but quietly accredits special agents to the Emperor and the Hungarian generals. It is to the intervention of these English agents that is to be attributed the submission of Georgey, the bases of whose capitulation were discussed and agreed upon at Warsaw during the last visit which Prince de Schwartzenberg made to that city. This submission is, therefore, neither a coup de tete, nor an act of despair, but the result of a diplomatic negotiation skilfully con ducted by England to save Hungary from the worst dis asters of an unequal struggle, and at the same time to take from Russia the pretext for increasing her army of occupation, and for prolonging its stay beyond her own frontiers. What was the French Government doing at this time:? ,The Minister of Foreign Affairs, after long studying some phrases on humanity, at length decided on drawing up the vague instructions which he gave to General Lamoriciere. He charged the Hon. General to humbly demand from the Emperor of Russia what were his intentions with regard to Hungary when the struggle should have been terminated. Such, in fact, was the question which our ambassador has tened to submit to the Emperor Nicholas imme diately on his arrival at Warsaw. The reply was at first evasive and dilatory. The negotiations had not yet completely finished. They were terminated under the very eyes of the General, and without his having the slightest suspicion of them. Our diplomacy did not shine more brightly at Warsaw than it does at Gaeta. M. de Lamoriciere was only informed of it by the salvos of artillery, which announced the definitive success of Russia. lie seized this opportunity to renew the famous question which M. de T( cqueville had charged him to ask. It is positively stated that the Emperor then replied, with the most amicable candour, that his forces having become free he should employ them against the spirit of revolution wherever it should show itself. ' The communications which we have received add, that the representative of the French Ripublic made no re ply, either because he had caught at no allu,ion, or that the recent example of M. de Lesseps had sufficiently edified him as to the reserve which a wise Government exacts from our diplomatists." The Committee of the 25th, which remains en permanence, to represent the Legislative Assembly, met on Thursday to consider whether it was expe dient, in consequence of the turn events had taken in Hungary and Sardinia, to call the Legislative As sembly together immediately. After some discussion it was decided that it would not be necessary to cell the Assembly together before the time fixed for its meeting. General CRANGARNIER, who appeared before the Committee, expressed himself satisfied with the state of Paris. It is rumoured that in consequence of the opposition with which his proposition for the imposition of an income-tax has been met by the propertied classes of France (for the followeri of M. fulEas have joined the Legitimatists in their opposition to the imposition of an income• tax), M. PASSY will retire from the Ministry. The rumour produced a fall in the French funds. Count MOLE has written to some of the journals to say that there is to be no meeting of the Legitimatist and Conservative members at his chateau, as had been stated by some of the papers. In the eleclion for members of the Council Gene• ral, in the canton of Canbreiner, Calvados, M. (Imo; who was a canriiLte, only obtained 310 votes, while his competitor, M. THLRAU, a notary, and Mayor of Canbremer, was elected by a majority of 897. The railroad from Dijon to Chalons sur• Saone is to be opened to the public on the Ist of September.

The Constitutionnelle of Vienna, of August 20, gives as the latest news : " Hostilities have been suspended by Field-Marshal Princi Paskewitch." The Deutsche Reforme contains the following letter : " VIENNA., Am 19.—According to a telegraphic dis patch received yesterday evening from Field-Marshal Baron Haynau, the ,fortress of Arad had surrendered, and was taken possession of by the Austrian troops on the 16th instant (three days after Georgey had laid down his arms). It had also been positively as serted that a great part of Georgey's corps had ex pressed a wish to enter into the ranks of the Austrian army. The delivery up of their arms occupied two com plete days. These disarmed troops were then provided with food, the want of a due supply of which they had long experienced. The submission had been unani mously concurred in by the corps of officers, after Georgey had satisfactorily demonstrated the impossibi lity of their longer carrying on the contest. Offcial news from the southern seat of war in Hungary con firms the intelligence of the rapid advance of the Ban Jellachich to Temeswar. This account also mentions that Bem, in the battle of Schasburg, was wounded. The Magyar troops who were in the neighbourhood of Waag, have, according to letters from Presburg, retired to Cormorn. It is asserted that the gar rison of that place had become acquainted with the submission of Georgey on the 15th, but, notwith standing that, it bad prepared for a serious resistance. Klapka was the military commander, and Ujhszy, was the commissary of the Magyar Government. A letter from the Banat announces that the instruments have completely evacuated that district. The communications of the army of the Danube have been completely re established on all points. General Haynau had his head quarters at Temeswar, and had addressed a proclama mation to the inhabitants of the Banuat who had fled, in which he strongly urged them to return, as danger no longer threatened them. After Panscova had been taken possession of, General Mayerhofer commenced his march so as to effect a junction with the Russian corps at Weisskirchen, and for this purpose he obtained a considerable reinforcement of troops and cannon from Semlin." The following is a narrative of the events which preceded the surrender of GEORGEY Georgey was, on the 2d instant, in the neighbour hood of the confluence of the Hernad with the Theiss. As we see from Kossuth's letters, he had orders to join the army on the Theiss and Maros. Paskewith, how ever, having occupied Debreczin on the 2d, Georgey had no other road left but that of Nyiregyhoza and Nagy KarOlY and if possible ho would Pam a junction with Bem at the foot of the mountains of Transylvania. In the meantime Nagy Sandor, whose mi , ssion it was to keep Paskewitch in check so as to facilitate Georgey's passage southward,was attacked by the Russian army corps under Rudiger and that under Caprianow, together with detachments commanded by Generals Be butow and Gillenschmidt, and beaten in a bloody battle, the details of which have just appeared in a Russian bulletin. Georgey had in the meantime passed, with forced marches, to the east of Debreczia, from which he was only thirty-five wersts distant the day after the battle. So far the Russian bulletins. "The Kurier Pl'arsawski helps us a stql or two more in this strange journey. When the Hnngarian leader neared the mountainous bases of Transylvania he learned the fete of Bern ; who, after various en counters with Luders and Grotenhielm, had turned towards Hermannstadt, and received before Hermann stadt and in the streets of that city a severe defeat on the sth, at the hands of the Ru,sian General Hasfort, and wits then, by reinforcements dispatched long before from Kossuth, enabled to reach the Maros, which he crossed at St. Ivary, and from thence reached Klausarburg, from which place he made his way to Arad. But on the 6th he was overtaken at Grosscheuren by Luders, and de'ented in a bloody engagemen`, which lasted twelve hours. His troops being pursued, dispersed among the mountains. Georgey, followed on his right flank still by Rudiger, left Grosawaradein, as he had (toile Debrec zin, to the right, and so came to Vilag,os on the 13th." The German Reform says the force of GEORGEY when he surrendered was only 27,000 men, with 80 guns. The Austrian Lloyd's states that it was in an assembly at Neurad, on the 11 th that GEORGEY, in KOSSUTH'S proposition, was proclaimed dic tator, and after long deliberation resolved to yield. All the Austrian journals consider the war in Hungary as definitively at one end, as they do not doubt that all the other corps d'arrnee will surrender, and that if there should be any bands of partisans they will soon be put down. The Inde pcndance of Brussels mentions a report that the Emperor of RUSSIA. has put a price on KOSSUTH'S head, the price being 60,000 roubles. KOSSUTH'S wife and family are said to have fallen into the hands of the Austrians. BAVARIA. General JECTZE, the late commander of the fort of Landau, has been ordered to be tried by court. martial.

The Duke of BOURDEAUX arrived at Ems on the Bth, under the name of Count of Chambord. HESSE CASSEL. All the ➢linisters have withdrawn their resignations POLAND. The Cologne Gazette of the 23d has the following under the head Cracow : " On the 12th instant a bloody conflict broke out be tween the Russians and Austrians here. An Austrian soldier got into a quarrel in the suburb of Zwierzeniec with a common workman. This affiiir assumed later another aspect, for in a short time there assembled about 30 Austrian soldiers with bayonets and about 12 Rus sians, accompanied by ft' ragamuffin crew, armed with sticks at d stones, who recommenced and prolonged the fray. An immense tumult sooon onsued in the street, the inhabitants barricadcd their houses, and the Russian party begin a regular bombardment with stones. Two persons were killed and several wounded; one hurled headlong from the bridge into the water. A strong pa trol came up and restored order. SWITZERLAND. Intelligence of the 19th states that the number of German emigrants is becoming every day smaller, in consequence of the determiwition of many of them to pass the frontier on the faith of verbal promises given that they should not be disquieted in their homes. The number of Germans who have thus returned is estimated at 4,000. The leaders, however, still re main in Switzerland, finding great difficulty in ob taining a sure asylum. TURKEY. Accounts from Constantinople of the sth confirm the intelligence which we gave some days ago, of the refusal of the Turkish Government to adopt hostile measures against Hungary in consequence of the entry of BEM into the Turkish territory. In replying to the demand of the Russian and Austrian Envoys, the Ministers of the Porte referred to the convention lately made, by which it was agreed that all troops entering the Turkish territory from Transylvania should be disarmed. When a body of Hungarian troops were summoned by the Custom-house officers on the frontier to give up their arms, they at once complied ; when the same demand was made to the Russian troops, on their entering the Turkish terri tory, they refused. The Russians alone violated the convention to the terms of which they hid agreed, and where the Turkish authorities have shown any remissness, it was solely in favour of those who de manded that hostile measures should be acl‘Tted by the SULTAN'S Government against the Hungarians. If the Russians had not adopted Wallachia and Mol davia as the basis of hostile operations against the Hungarians, the latter would never have entered the Turkish territory. This is the sense of the reply ,give❑ by the Porte to the Russian and Austrian En. voys. And the Ministers of the SULTAN added, that they were determined for the future to enforce the terms of the convention, and to insist upon the neu trality of the Ottoman empire being respected." The Russian and Austrian Envoys took this reply in high dudgeon, and threatened war. The English and French Ambassadors urged the Porte to resist the demands of Austria and Russia, and although the French Ministry may find it convenient to De Lesseps General Aussicx, out of compliment to the Cossack PRESIDENT of the Republic, yet we trust that Sir STRATFORD CANNING will be supported by the Government of England, and that an English fleet will be prepared to protect the mouth of the Bosphorus if necessary. ITALY. The PorE has conferred on General OIJDINOT the title of Duke of San Pancrazio, with a pension of 6,000 crowns. The Inqui-dtion is in full vigour in Rome. Several persons have been arrested because they were Protestants and copies of the translation of the Scriptures into Italian have been seiz-d and burned. There has been a profuse distribution of decorations of the new Papal order of the Piano among the French officers, who have, however, refused to wear them, as the appearance of any of the " decorated " in the streets of Rome was the signal for a cry of " The Pope's soldiers," an appellation which invari ably raises the ire of the French soldiery. At Villetri the Spanish allies of the POPE commit, in the name of religion, the most atrocious cruelties on the inhabitants. 4 ',Cardinal DELLA GENGA lodged a serious compl a i n t with General OUDINOT, against the inhabitants of the Roman territory generally, that they hissed him whenever he appeared. General OUDINOT, of course, laughed at the complaint of the touchy cardinal. The priests are now everywhere saluted with the cry of " Long live the French ! but death to the priests." The Ministers of the King of SARDINIA com municated to the Chamber of Deputies at Turin, on the 19th, the intelligence of the ratification by Austria of the treaty of peace. The President of the Council then read the treaty, as follows : "In the name:of the Holy and Indivisible Trinity—His Majesty the King of Sardinia, of Ciprus, and Jerusalem, &c., his Majesty the Emperor of Austria, King of Hun• gary, of Bohemia, of Lombardy, and of Venice, &c., being equally desirous of putting an end to the calami ties of war, and to establiA the ancient relations of friend-hip and good understanding formerly subsisting between their respective states, have resolved to proceed without delay to the conclusion of a definitive treaty of peace, and have in consequence named for their pleni p,tontaries, to wit (here are inserted . their names as un dersigned), who have agreed in the following articles : " Art. 1. For the future and at all times there shall be peace, friendship. and a good understanding between his Majesty the King of Sardinia and his Majesty the Emperor of Austria, their heirs and successors, and their respective state s and subjects. `A4t.t2h.eAKlilngtreoaftiseasrdainndia and c his Majesty the ventions between hi s M ti ` e Em peror of Austria which were in force up to the Ist March, 1848, are fully re-established and confirmed thereby, so far as not contrary to the present treaty. " Art. 3. The limits of the states of the King of Sar dinia on the Po and on the Tessin shall be the same as fixed by sections 3,4, and 5 of Art. 84 of the final act of the Congress of Vienna of June 9, 1815—that is to say, such as this were before the commencement of the war of 1848. " Art. 4. His Majesty the ICing of Sardinia, as well for him se lf as f or h i s h e i rs an d successors, renounces all title or p re t ens i on w h atever o ver the countries situated beyond th e li m i ts d es i gna t e d i n the aforesaid paragraphs of the Act of J une 9, 1815. Nevertheless t h e r i g h t o f reversion o f S ar di n i a to t h e D u chy of Placentia is main tained in, the terms of the treaties. " Art:" 5. His Royal Highness the Duke of Modena and her Royal Highness the Infanta of Spain, Duke of Parma and of Placentia, are invited to accede to this pre sent treaty. " Art. 6. This treaty shall be ratified and the ratifi cations, as well as the acts of accession and of ac ceptance, shall be exchanged within fourteen . days, or as soon after as pos s ible. In faith of which the plenipo tentiaries have signed and affixed their seals, &c. " Done at Milan the 6th of August, 1849. (Signed) CH. DE PRALORMO. 66 G. BABORMIDA. " C. RONCOMPAGNL " BRUCK," " SEPARATE ADDITIONAL ARTICLE. "Art. 1. Hi s M a j es ty the King of. Sardi n ia engages to pay t o hi s M a j esty t h e Emperor of Austria the sum of seventy-fiv e m illions of francs as indemnity, to defray the exp enses o f t h e war an d damages, &c., wcurred by Austria, as well as all claims of the like nature of the Dubs of Modena, and of Parma and Placentia. " Art. 2. The payment of the said sum of seventy• five million francs shall be made as follows;—fifteen milli :n francs shall be paid in cash, by means of a bond payable at Paris at the end of next October, without interest, which shall be given to the Austrian Plenipotentiaries at the time of the ratification of the treaty. The pay ment of the remaining sixty millions shall be made in ten successive payments, at intervals of two months, with interest at five per cent._ " As a guarantee of the exactness of this payment the Sardinian Government will send in depot to that of his Imperial and Royal Apostolic Majesty, at the moment of the exchange of ratifications of the present treaty, sixty bonds of a million francs each of capital, that is to say, 50,000 francs of interest each in the gr. , at book of the public debt of Sardinia. These bonds shall be re stored to the Government of his Sardinian Majesty, according to the payments that may be made at Vienna. in bills of exchange on Paris, as is stipulated a'-ove. If the Sardinian Government, from whatever motive, shall withdraw these bonds, and omit the pay ments stipulated, it is understood that, two months after the passing of the term when they should have been paid, the Government of his Imperial and Royal Apos tolic Majesty shall be authorised by this circumstance itself, to cause to be sold each time, at the Paris Bourse, the interest for the sum unpaid of 6.ooo,ooo£—namely, 300,000 r. of interest. The deficit which may result, com paratively to their nominal value, will be charged to the Government of his Sardi n i an M a j es ty, an d th amount must be paid by him with the least possible delay, in bills of exchange on Paris, conjointly with the unpaid interest calculated to the day on which this payment should effectively have been made. " Art. 3. His Majesty the Emperor of Austria en gages on his part to cause the Austrian troops, within the term of eight days from the ratification of the present treaty, to evacuate the states of his Majesty the King of Sardinia—namely, the Sardinian t-rritory, within the limits established by A r t. 3 o f t h e treaty of peace signed to this day. " Art. 4. As there hare existed for many years dis putes between Sardinia and Austria, "touching the line of demarcation near the city of Pavia, it is agr'ed that the limits of this place shall be formed by the banks of the Gravellone Canal, and that there shall be constructed with the common consent, and at the common expense, upon this canal a bridge on which no toll or duty shall be collected. " Art. 5. The two high contracting parties, desiring to give more extension to the commercial relations of the two countries, hereby mutually engage to negotiate a treaty o commerce and navigation on the basis of the most strict reciprocity, and by which their respective subjects shall be put upon the same footing as those of the most favoured nations." (The rest of this article relates to the mode of settling this treaty of commerce and navigation.) " Art•. 6 and 7 also bear upon this latter point, and are for the most part of a formal character." WARSAW. (From a Correspondent of the Weekly News) BERLIN, Au°. 17.—1 send you some particulars of the doings at Warsaw. In the first interview between Lamoriciere, Schwarzeoberg, and the Russian Czar, a plan was broached for an alliance between France, Russia, Austria, Prussia, Naples, and the Pope. The coalition was to keep in view, as an ultimate aim, a war with England. The immediate object was to be the ex tinction of all the revolutionary elements. Turkey, Italy, the Rhenish Provinces, and Belgium, which is no longer to be tolerated, furnish mate rials for indemnification. Prussia is to have North Germany to the Maine; Austria, Bosnia, and South Germany, except Bavaria. Bavaria is to have Wirtemberg in exchange for the Rhenish Province, which is to go to France with Cologne. Wirtemberg, Baden, Hesse, and other princes,, are to be mediatized. Switzerland also to be divided. ChimeriCal as this may sound, still 'it formed the matter of discussion. With out drawing definitive conqlusions froni this statement, it allows ciao to see with what kind of plani diplomatic heads ere busied. The Czar took up Alexander's journal, and read out of it the conversation of that Em peror with Napoleon. Respecting Constantinople no thing could be agreed upon. It was the Emperor's notion that Byzantium might one day be left as a free city, with some territory. It was assumed that France, Russia, and Austria, with the help of Naples, would be able to produce a fleet able to cope with that of England. I am, yours, &c. THE PENINSULAR MAILS. SOUTHAMPTON, SATURDAY.—. The Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's ship Iberia, Captain Burney, has arrived here, with the usual Spanish and Portugues mails. Her dates are—Gibraltar, August 15, Cadiz 16, Lisbon 19, Oporto 20, Vigo 21. Lisbon letters of the 19th inst. mention that the Cabinet continued in a critical condition for want of cash, the Treasury having been compelled to receive from the Bank of Portugal the small balance of 100 cantos which that establishment is bound to advance without security upon occasions of emergency. It appears uncertain if the shareholders of the bank would sanction the lending to Government of the proposed 400 contos, or any portion thereof, upon the terms proposed by the Minister of Finance, M. Avilla, who was likely to retire from the Cabinet, unless he could succeed in providing for the absolute necessities of the Government. Many of the Count de Thomar's friends were beginning to despair and imagine that he had better retire at once; the Count, however, was determined not so soon to give way to the difficul ties which surrounded him. The quarantine regulations were a little more modified at Lisbon; vessels from suspected ports were liable to three days', and those from infected ports to eight days', quarantine. Gibraltar was no longer considertl in Por tugal an infected port. Foreign bills were scarce upon the Lisbon Exchange, and the quotations for three months' paper on London were 54 to 53;1; Lisbon Bank Notes, 33 per cent. dis count. At Oporto the rate of cxchangs on London, at 90 days, was 541; and Gibraltar, 504. COURT CIRCULAR. BALMORAL, AUG. 22. Her Majesty and the Prince went out in a pony car riage into the Forest this morning. The Princesses, attended by Miss Hillyard, walked out. The Right Hon. Sir George Grey took his departure from Balmoral this morning. Lord John Russell is expected to arrive this after noon, on a visit to her Majesty. MARKET NE W S.-(THIS DAY.) COVENT-GARDEN.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated at about 7,000 bales, of which from 2,000 to 3.000 were taken on speculation. The market was quiet but steady.—Railway Shares were dull, and prices had a downward tendency. The accounts received this morning from the manu• facuring districts represent that a greater degree of activity prevailed in many branches than was the case on this day se'nnight. At Bradford, the manufacturers were all engaged to order, and the stocks were very small in the consumers' hands. At Leeds a brisk trade has been done in the warehouses. We notice with special satisfaction an appearance, even at the Bank of England, of money becoming in greater request, and no doubt for legitimate commercial pur• poses, if we are to judge by what we h6ar and see around us in other directions. The weekly return of liabilities and assets, made up to the 18th instant, shows au increase in the active note circulation which certainly is not large, but it is accompanied by an addition of 385,9431. to the other securities, and a withdrawal of over half a million from the other deposits. The bullion was slighily added to, and. will probably very soon exceed fifteen millions. Compared with the precious week the changes are us follows: Notes I; ued Decrease Rest •• ••• Decrease ...

Paris was higher, and also Antwerp. Hamburgh sup ported the late rise. Trieste was lower. The exports of the precious metals from London this week have been as follows:—Gold coin 470 ounces, and silver coin and bars 270,800 ounces, the larger pro portion of the silver being to France, and of gold to the Mauritius. There is no animation in Public Securities, and the quotations remain almost precisely the same as yester day, Consols being 92i for Transfer, and 924 for Account. The New 'I hree-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 934 s ; Bank Stock has been steady at 1991 ; Exchequer-bills have declined to 455. and 425. premium. The Foreign Securities are dull also ; Mexican, 27i and Spanish Five per Cents. 184. Brazilian Old Bonds have been 87, and Equador 3i ; Dutch Two-and-a- Half per Cents. have realised 53 to 53/. Railway Shares are lower, and that, for the most part, arises from paucity of business. Indeed the attendance in the City today is very thin. P toli:s ußlTlttiii FUND 4 Bank Stock ... 3: ‘er Cent.
