Sheriff ARKLEY, who was the presiding judge, said—Mrs. Manning, this is a very serious charge against you, and it is my duty now to tell you that it is not necessary that you should say anything un less you please. The prisoner, in a low but distinct voice, ,and after a short pause, said, " I have nothing to say. She was then removed from the dock. She was to be sent to London, it was reported, in the course of the day, by the Caledonian and North-Western Railways. It appears from investigation that the prisoner arrived in Edinburgh on Wednesday or Thursday last from Newcastle, and took lodgings with a woman of the name of Hewett, in Haddington-place. She assumed the name of," Mrs. Smith," that favourite cognomen now-a-days with people who find them selves placed in any position of danger or difficulty. On the Friday she made a small purchase at the shop of a draper in the High-street, and in the course of conversation she asked the shopman if he could ac quaint her with the name of some respectable share• broker in Edinburgh. He accordingly directed her to the office of Messrs. Hughson and Dobson, share brokers, Royal Exchange. She did not immediately call upon those gentlemen, but reserved her visit until the following day. On calling on Saturday she had a conversation with one, and subsequently with both the partners. She represented to them that she had dealt in Spanish bonds, and that she held at present some shares in the Amiens and Boulogne Railway, and also in the Sambre and Meuse Railway, which she said she would not much care to dispose of if she could do so to any advantage. Messrs. Hughson and Dobson informed her that foreign stock was not much dealt in about Edinburgh, but that they had no doubt they could negotiate the sale of the stock through their London agents. She also informed them that she had in her possession from 3001. to 5001. in money, which she was much inclined to invest in railway preference stock ; and, in alluding to this matter, she expressed her anxiety to know if the dividends would be payable aboard. Messrs. Hughson and Dobson gave her every information on this subject, and at the same time told her, in the most courteous and friendly manner, that it was unsafe for her to travel with so much money about her, and that it would be better, in the meantime, for her to lodge it in some of the banks, from which she could draw it with interest when she met with an investment that should come up to her expectations. To this she replied in a slightly foreign accent, and pointing at the same time to her breast, "I keep--it her, where it is quite safe." In the course of the conversation she fur ther stated that she had come to Edinburgh within the last few weeks ; that she was highly pleased with the city as a place of residence; and that she had enjoyed with great zest sea-bathing in the neigh bouring town of Portobello. She also represented that her father, to whom she gave the name of Robertson, resided in Glasgow; and that he had done a great deal of business, as well as lost a great deal of money, in rail way shares. During the conversation she exhibited much animation, and an immense flow of spirits. It was ultimately brought to a close by her handing Messrs. Hughson and Dobson a scrip certificate, representing a certain number of shares in the Huntingdon, St. Ive's, and Wisbeach Railway Company, upon which it appeared that 11. per share had been returned ; and, on expressing a desire to learn if any further return was to be made upon those shares, Messrs. llughson and Dobson undertook to correspond with their agent in London, and to ac quaint her on the subject in the course of a day or two. She accordingly left the scrip certificate, on receiving a receipt for it ; and, before leaving, she left them a note of her address. We should also have mentioned that she stated to Messrs. Hughson and Dobson that her husband was in England, and that she expected that he would shortly visit her in Edinburgh. On Monday she again called at the office of Messrs. Hughson and Dobson. The latter of these gentle men only happened to be in the office at the time. After a few minutes' conversation she stated that she wished to have the scrip certificate of the Huntingdon St. Eve's, and Wisheach Railway Company back again. She did not assign any reason for this; but she subsequently declared that it was either her in tention to go that afternoon, or next morning, to Newcastle, to see her mother, who she alleged was unwell, and, with a smile, she said, "Of course she must pay every attention to her beloved parent." It was her purpose, however, she observed, to return again in a few days to Edinburgh. Mr. Dobson im mediately gave her up the scrip certificate, as she desired, when she tore the receipt which she had re ceived in lieu of it on Saturday. Before going away she wished also to get back the name and address which she had left on her first visit. This, however, was not at hand at the time, and very fortunately too, as it subsequently was the means of tracing her out, and leading to her capture. On Tuesday morning Messrs. Hughson and Dob son received a printed letter, acquainting them that certain shares in some foreign railways had been stolen in London, and cautioning them against having dealings in regard to them. This immediately excited their suspicions as to their fair visitant, and after weighing and deliberating upon the matter, they became more and more convinced that "Mrs. Smith" must in some way or other, have been connected with the nefarious transaction alluded to. Without a moment's delay, Mr. Dobson proceeded to the police office, and acquainted Mr.Moxey, the superintendent, with the suspicions entertained by himself and his partner (Mr. Hughson). Mr. Moxey consulted a de scription that he had received of the person of Mrs. Manning, as well as that given by the London papers, and he at once became convinced, like Messrs. Hugh son and Dobson, that " Mrs. Smith" was in reality Mrs. Manning. As a train was just about this time to start for Newcastle, they proceeded in the first instance to the station of the North British Railway Company, where Mr. Dobson, in company with Mr. Moxey, personally inspected the passengers in all the carriages, but without discovering "Mrs. Smith." Thence they instantly went to the house of Mrs. Hewett, where " Mrs. Smith" had stated that she lodged, Mr. Dobson having luckily, before calling upon Mr. Moxey, found - the piece of paper on which the address of "Mrs. Smith" was written. On arriving at the house of Mrs. Hewett, Mr. Mosey, and a criminal officer who accompanied him, knocked at the door and asked if a " Mrs. Smith" resided within, when they were answered in the affirmative, and shown into her room, followed by Mr. Dobson. Mr. Moxey appealed to Mr. Dobson if this was the woman that wished to dispose of certain railway stock to him, when that gentleman immediately answered in the affirmative. Mr. Moxey then acquainted " Mrs. Smith" with the crimes with which she was charged, in answer to which, we understand, she did not say anything. She was evidently, however, in a state of some excitement, but not at all equal to what might be expected from a person in her posi tion. Her face became deadly pale, and she bit her lips, and showed other symptoms of uneasi ness. Her luggage, consisting of two boxes and a carpet-bag were then examined isy Mr. Moxey and the criminal officer, when the most indubitable evidence was obtained that the prisoner was no other than Mrs. Manning, and that she had in her possession the greater part of the greater part of the property said to have t been stolen from the house of Patrick O'Con nor, who was so brutally murdered in London. The prisoner asked permission to retire into an adjoining apartment for a few minutes, but, this being refused, the consoled herself by taking a glass of wine, and she repeated the draught more than once during the time that the examination of her luggage was going on. This inspired her time was co nve yed with renewed confidence, and in a short o c n zlness and self-possession had returned.

Stu V .01I'- ; biuu exening LONDON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 24, 1849. We dare not hope that the intelligence of the fall of Hungary is not true. Whether or not the imme diate cause of her fall was the treason of one whom we have hitherto regarded as the soul of honour and the mirror of chivalry, it boots not now to inquire; but there is the fact, that Russia—that power which Mr. COBDEN the other day, with all the smug compla cency of ignorance the most crass, likened to a sheet of crumpled paper—has trodden out the life of Hun gary, and is now handing over the bleeding and mangled carcase to the Austrian vulture. But while denouncing Russia and Austria as the eternal enemies of liberty, of justice, and of humanity— let us at the same time _le just. Gigantic as is the crime committed by Austria and Russia, they are not the greatest criminals—deep as is their guilt, it is as nothing compared with the guilt of France, who, Junas-like, has betrayed Liberty with a kiss. It is France, Republican France, who is in deed and in truth the destroyer of the liberty and nationality of Hungary. But for her example Russia would never have ventured to interfere in the affairs of Hungary, and it was for the purpose of furnishing the prece dent to Russia, for the purpose of beforehand putting it out of the power of any French Government to protest against Russian interference in the affairs of Europe, that the PRESIDENT of the French Republic (who, be it never forgotten, is cousin by marriage of the Emperor of RUSSIA, and who at Strasburg, in 1834, boasted that his pretensions were supported by Russia), dispatched an expedition to Rome to put down Republicanism and to put up Popery. This interference on the part of such a people, for such an object, would be as ludicrous as it is infamous, were it not that a most mischiev ous precedent has been thereby offered to every tyranny to invade its weaker neighbour, whenever its form ofßOVerllMPnt may he displeasing to it, or whenever the wolf may choose to denounce the lamb as dangerous. The PRESIDENT of the French Republic is the co-conspirator with Austria and Russia against the liberties of mankind. Russian gold and Austrian intrigue, acting through priestly influences, secured his election as PRESIDENT of the Republic, for the express purpose of carrying out the reac tionary crusade planned during the course of last summer in this country, and France, Russia, and Austria have, in carrying it out, crushed liberty in Italy and Hungary ; they are now preparing to do the same thing in Central Ger many, and such is the apathy of the French people, that it would seem as though they would contentedly see the Cossacks !again watering their horses in the Seine without being roused to action. Mr. COBDEN the other day denounced any capitalist who should advance money to Russia—infinitely more just would such denunciation be if applied to any capitalist who should advance money to the present Government of France, to enable it to escape from the embarrassments which it has brought upon itself by the perpetration of this Roman outrage. We trust that no English capitalist will advance a single shilling to the present liberticide Government of France ; or should he do so we devoutly pray that he may lose every farthing of it. Indeed, such would most probably be his fate. The cup of the offences of the liberticide faction in France is ;nearly full. A Russo-Austrian alliance has always been the last card of every anti-national Government in that country for the last century, and the next time the people take the management of their affairs into their own hands, the reactionaries may rely on it there will be no mistake. The debts contracted for the purpose of destroying the Republic will never be recog nized by the Republic when she shall have shaken off the yoke of her oppressors. It would be well that capitalists should bear this in mind when about to enter into a contract for a new French loan. What a farce does it not seem to hold a Peace Con gress in Paris ? How can any man of high or honour able feeling, nay, possessed of one single particle of self-respect, venture - in the Congress to open his mouth against war without pointing to the shameless example which France has just given of making war upon a weaker and an unoffending neighbour without the pretence of one honourable, just, or popular object in doing so? The example thus aet by France is the most shocking in modern history, and however much we mar execrate Austria and Russia, we must yet remember that they have never pretended to be the friends of liberty ; they have been throughout the struggles of the last fifty years the consistent and open opponents of liberty all over the world; they have never - deceived any party all men knew what to expect of them, and on which side they would range themselves on the day of battle. But with France the case is different. She has always held herself forth as the leader in the cause of freedom—a cause which she has accepted only to betray, as witness Sardinia, Sicily, Hungary, Rome. The conduct of France has sent back liberal principles in Europe a quarter of a century. France is the real, the dangerous enemy of peace and liberty. But while thus denouncing the conduct of France, what shall we say to that of our own Government? It has been disgraceful, and if not tainted, like that of France, with the guilt of treason to the cause of liberty, has been to the full as mischievous from its vacillating indecision and its criminally credulous faith in the honour, honesty, and upright intentions of the French PRESIDENT and his Ministers. To this superstition of an entente cordiale Italy, Sicily, and Hungary have been sacrificed. The speeches of Lord PALMERSTON have, throughout the session, been all that every lover of liberty cou ld oulgwadorreddseineraet and di but " A ls m lik au e n ot of we e deedsweeds." `and our present Cabinet stands in need of weeding wofully. If, instead, of making I a n have e_ loq u a e n n speech at the close of th e session, my Lord PaLmensTost had simply said, nounced to the Austrian Ambassador that • im mediately the Russians cross the frontiers of Hungary we shall acknowledge the independence of that coun try, and our fleet in the Mediterranean will take possession of Trieste and Fiume, which will be gar risoned from Malta and Corfu, and will then proceed to raise the siege of Venice, the independence of which will be also acknowledged," his Lordship would have effectually secured the liberties of Hungary and Italy. In the face of such a declaration, with the knowledge that Turkey would join England in an alliance offensive and' de fensive, and that Moldavia, Wallachia, and Poland, would in such a case be up and doing, the CZAR would have preferred mediation with Austria to war with Hungary. If last year be had, instead of suffering himself to be blindly led by France, at once acknowledged, as he was bound to do by treaty, the inde• pendence of Sicily, and pointing to the guarantee by England, in 1812, of the Sicilian Constitution have, at once announced to the Neapolitan BOURDON that any attempt on his part to violate that constitution would constitute a cam Belli, Si cily would now have been free ; and seeirg the independent attitude assumed by England, the French PRESIDENT would not have ventured to attack Rome, nor his cousin, the Russian EM PEROR, to invade Hungary. That Lord PALMER.. STON, had he been permitted to follow his own inspi rations, would have acted thus, we verily believe, but he is thwarted and obstructed by an irresponsible camarilla. Too long has he submitted to the secret tyranny of this cabal. Let him come out from among a Ministry to which he alone imparts re spectability; let him leave them to perish of their own rottenness—they already stink in the nostrils of the people ; let him resign, and denouncing the camarilla, upon which, be it dynastic or aristocratic, the people will know how to do justice, if he cannot uphold the cause of liberty in foreign countries, at least, by placing himself at the head of the movement, save it in his own. The year 1769 has been for ever rendered re markable by the birth of many peculiarly dis tinguished men. Among the number, however, were three whose astonishing careers have cast the recollection of the others into almost entire oblivion. In that auspicious year three infants first saw the light, born in different countries and in such marvellously dissimilar conditions, that their history is another proof of how little a man's fortune depends upon his circumstances, and how entirely (under PROVIDENCE) it depends upon himself. Of these three infants, one was the younger son of a British noble, another was one of the fifteen children of a humble tradesman in a Turkish town, and the third was the offspring of an exiled Italian family, living in retirement in a little island of the Mediterranean. Eighty years back they alike slept the sleep of unconscious innocence in their dissimilar cradles—those three men, whose lives were to have an imperishable record in the history of the world, whose actions were to change the fate of nations. Unlike as was the outset of their various careers, all ultimately adopted a sol dier's life, even the young Turk fled away from the tobacconist's shop to which his destiny had seemingly consigned him, and entered the army as a volunteer. Nevertheless, although the battle-field was to those three heroes the initiation of the path of renown, it is not to be inferred from thence that war is an infallible way to glory, and warlike qualities the best passports to dis tinction. Had these three men been only soldiers, their names would have passed away like the thou sands of others never known beyond the muster-roll. It was not to the mere circumstance of their having adopted a military life, but rather to their own great talents and marvellous energy, that these men were indebted for their remarkable celebrity. It was talent and energy of no common order that converted the unknown English ensign into " the WELLESLEY of Assaye," and afterwards into the WELLINGTON of the Peninsula and of Waterloo. It was talent and energy, or rather let us say it was genius of the highest order, a mental capacity capable of conceiving great designs, and an indomitable courage and resolu tion in effecting them such as no other man has ever possessed. It was this, and not the circumstance of his having first chosen a sword to carve his path e that elevated the humble :youth of Corsica to the Imperial Throne of France, that girt his brows with the Royal diadem of Italy, that gave to his dominion "a realm, surpassing that of Charlemagne, Which stretched from Moscow to the Southern Seas," and made the Kiegs sea Princes of Europe attendants in his ante-chamber. The history of this greatest of the children of 1769 is interwoven with the history of the world, and the fortunes of him whose greatest triumph is in having given the death-blow to that almost invincible conqueror are familiar to all. He lives, an object of veneration to his countrymen—long may he be spared !—the only survivor of the wondrous " three" whose lives have cast so much celebrity upon the year 1769. It is not of these that we would now speak, but their fortunes have been recalled to us by the consideration of one who started on his career at the same epoch, and who, as it were, but yesterday, has been gathered to his fathers. MEHEMET ALI is no more. The son of the Turkish trades man, the incipient tobacconist, the volunteer soldier, the Viceroy of Egypt, the terror of the SULTAN, and the glory of the Egyptian, has passed away — "The paths of glory lead but to the grave." We can readily believe that MEHEMET must have been greatly beloved by his own people, for his character was one that invariably wins regard. He is described as frank and open, easily impressed, and readily express ing ' t all he felt ; to his children remarkable for his kindness, and living in domestic life with simplicity and without restraint. Ever active and energetic, he rose before sunrise; and, like all ambitious men, keenly alive to public opinion, he was in the habit of having the European papers constantly translated to him, and any remarks concerning himself affected him much. He entertained a high opinion of America, and prophesied that its great resources would hereafter be remarkably exhibited. It is said that he was well acquainted with the characters of European politicians, and familiar with the various views of Lord JOHN ItussELL and Sir RonErtx PEEL, the latter being his especial favourite. These are but minor points, yet they are interesting as character istics of a great man. Ambition, which ultimately converted the obscure tobacconist into the powerful Pasha, was the ruling passion of MEHEMET. That ambition stimulated his first essay in arms. He soon obtained favour with the Governor of Cavalla (his native town) by crushing a re bellion. In 1799, in the war with the French in Egypt, MEHEMET greatly distinguished himself, rose in rank and acquired the love and sub mission of his soldiers. After various ♦icissitudes and much intrigue, in 1806 he was raised to the Pashalic of Egypt, and at once ensured to himself the adhesion of the army by the payment of long owing debts. From this period the new PASHA, not content with the power he had obtained, seemed only desirous of extending his dominions; assisted by his victorious son Inaaulat, his successes were great. It is unnecessary here to recapitulate the varying fortunes of MEHEMET ALA, they will be found detailed in an other column. One blot, however, tarnishes the memory of the VICEROY—the cold-blooded murder of the Mamelukes, an act (making allowances for the doubtful morality of the East) not, perhaps, so atrocious in intent as it assuredly was in execution, but, nevertheless, an indelible stain in the history of this generally merciful and magnanimous Prince. As an instance of this latter quality let it not be for gotten with what almost unparalleled generosity MEHEMET ALx permitted the ordinary transit of the India mail through his dominions, even while the English fleet were bombarding Acre—an act worthy of the chivalry of SALADIN ! The great test, however, of the worth of a Governor is the condition of the people over whom he rules. Has Egypt been benefited by the sway of the late VICEROY ? We believe, on the whole, the answer would be in the affirmative. MEHEMET Au, not withstanding Turkish prejudices, encouraged fo• reigners to mingle with and instruct his people. In his latter days he founded many schools and hospi tals, and endeavoured to promote manufactures. The following observations . are said to have been uttered by him some years back. They form a noble panegyric on his memory :-- "Respecting myself," said he, to an intelligent Eng. lish gentleman, "I am not a literary man. sly educa tion has been gleaned from the open page of nature. I know the advantage education has given to the inhabi tants of Europe, and I am struggling with prejudice and ignorance in order to sow the sceds of futone advance ment among my people. This is not the work of a day, a year, or a generation ; but I hope the condition of the people of Egypt is yet destined to be elevated by the labours of those who succeed me. I have urged on my sons and my grandsons to follow up the work ; and if in after;ages, when my ashes shall be undistinguishable, the Arab races of Egypt can hold up their heads in the world of civilization, my name may perhaps not be forgotten in the traditions and history of the times I have lived in." It seems the VICEROY only learned to read at the age of 45, after his elevation to the Pashalic ; never theless, history was his favourite study, especially the history of NAPOLEON and ALEXANDER. He thought much of fame, and was anxious to leave an enduring reputation behind him. Let us trust that in the good he has effected in Egypt he has left a memorial of himself less perishable than the remembrance of his warlike achievements, and, moreover, let us hope that his successor will carry out the principles laid down in the paragraph above quoted. He may be assured ameliorati onh glory of King and Governor, but also th e ir that most ene d enduring monument. of the pe o pl e i s no t on l y hi s greatest monument. THE FRENCI - 1 REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. The official Moniteur publishes the dispatch from Berlin, announcing the surrender of GEORGEY and the defeat of BEM. The general opinion in Paris is that GEORGET has been purchased by Russian gold to turn traitor. Letters from Perigueux state that M. LEON FAVORER, who was about to return to Paris, has been detained in that town by serious indisposition. The prosecution commenced some months since against the association called "La Solidarite Re publicaine" has been renewed with increased activity. The seventy members who formed the consulting commission of the society are to be brought to trial. The Courts of France have placed a construction on the law relating to the press, which will hence forth render the publication of reports of Parlia mentary proceedings physically impossible. M. SEGurt- D'AGuEsszeu, one of the acknowledged " Bores" of the National Assembly, summoned the editor of the National, for publishing a short report of his speech in the debate on the organic law relat ing to the press, and demanded the publication of a verbatim report thereof, and the Court decided in his favour. There can be no doubt but that, acting on this precedent, M. GREPPO, and the other Communist leaders, will demand the insertion of verbatim reports of their speeches in the Constitutionnel, the Univers, aid the other re-actionary journals. The Patrie says : " We are assured that the President of the Republic, notwithstanding the state of his health, and the fatigue caused by his preceding journeys, would not have post poned the inaugurations of the Strasbourg and Lyons Railroads, which were to have taken place on the 19th and 26th of this month, but that, at the earnest request of his Ministers, these two excursions have been post poned to Sunday, the 2d of September, for Epernay, and Sunday, the 9th, for Lyons, in order to give time for the perfect re-establishment of the President's health." The Moniteur contains an address from M. ODILLON BARROT, as Minister of Justice, recommending the revision of the penal code. A committee of the most eminent jurisconsults is declared to be chosen for the purpose of considering the question. BOURSE—Penis, THURSDAY, AUGUST 23.

The general impression at Vienna is, that gold has had more to do than steel with the surrender of GEORGEY, and the fact that he insisted on surrendering to the Russians alone seems to corroborate this supposi tion. Gen. GEORGET surrendered not to the ally of the Emperor of AUSTRIA, but to the proprietor of the gold mines of the Ural mountains. KOSSUTH and BEM have fled to Belgrade. ARAD has surrendered to the Austrians', in obedience to the commands of GEORGET, who has Also aid d _ the garrizono of Pctri vvardein and Comorn to lay down their arms. It is, however, very doubtful whether KLAPKA will be inclined to follow GEORGEY'S example. The Austrians have possession of Raab, but it does not appear that a regular direct communication has been yet re-established with Pesth. The Magyars still maintain their ground in the Schutt, and their outposts are in Bos. General CZORICH was in Pres burg on the 16th, and the battalions sent suddenly into the Schutt defiled before him. These troops, however, were presently countermanded, and sent to Raab. _ _ An official report of the Bth, from Colonel Dorsner, who is at Hermannstadt, gives u 3 the particulars of what has taken place in the south-west of Transyl vania since the 4th, on which date General Luders was at Galfalva. After Bern's defeat at Schassburg on the 31st, it was stated that he had retired to Udvarhely. This was not the case, for during the night of the 2d he proceeded towards Mediash (Medgyes), which he reached on the 3d, with a force of frona 7,000 to 8,000 men, and 17 cannons. Hav ing been joined at this place by an auxiliary corps from Clausenburg, consisting of 4,000 foot, 800 horse, and 12 cannons, he proceeded towards Her mannstadt. General Hassfort, who had been left with six battalions, eight cannons, and 350 Cossacks to protect Hermannstadt, had gone to Reissmarkt and Muhlenbach, where he gained the victory mentioned yesterday over the insurgent General Stein. All this having been made known to General Luders by his scouts, he foresaw that Bern would fall upon Hassfort, probably drive him into Wallachia, and then take possession of Hermannstadt. Nothing remained to be done but to pursue Bern with all speed. Before, however, Luders could overtake him, he learned that Hassfort' had actually bean attacked, driven from his posi tion, and after a murderous battle in the streets of Hermannstadt, in which he had many killed and wounded, had been obliged to retreat to LTal mash. On the 6th, at ten A.m., General Luders' army stood before Hermannstadt. Six battalions of the enemy, 500 horse, and 18 cannons, occupied the neigbouring heights, a considerable reserve had been left in the city, and the remainder of the army had gone in pursuit of Hassfort. A battle ensued, which ended in the complete rout of the Magyars. The Russian cavalry put such of the fugitives as attempted to resist to the sword. The enemy, who lost 1,200 prisoners and 14 cannons in this battle, had 600 killed and 500 wounded. The troops which had followed Hassfort made the best of their way after their routed com rades. The Russians, including the loss suffered by General Hassfort on the sth, had 364 killed and wounded. The battles of Schassburg and Her mannstadt produced a most dispiriting effect upon the insurgents. Many threw away their arms, and sought refuge in the woods, while others came over to the victors. It is evident that immediately after this defeat Bern must have hurried into the Banat, as it is certain that he bad the chief command at Te mesvar. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. IlAmnunGu, AUG. 21.—Much apprehension has been entertained here that Prussia would signally re quite Hamburgh for the uncalled for insult offered by some o f our c i t i z ens to the Prussian troops. A proclamati on h as , h ow ever, been issued by our Senate this morning, w hich is calculated to allay all unne cessary apprehension on that ground. The Prussian Government is resolved to keep the city occupied by l its troop s on l y t ill suc h time as every thing shall be perfectly regulated for the free and unmolested pas sage of the numerous troops who must necessarily pass and r e p ass th ro ugh the city on their way to and from the D uc hi es of Schleswig and Holstein. The Senate ani ma d ver ts severely and justly on the ano maly of a fr e e a nd independent city like Hamburgh becoming the centre of a lawless faction. It as serts that the Senate had in no wise oc casioned either mediately or immediately the entrance of the Prussian troops on their occupa tion of the city, but that the charge of quartering them must now necessarily devolve upon the inno cent burgher as well as upon those whose culpable excesses gave rise to that measure on the part of the Prussian Cabinet. According to letters from Kiel, and other parts, there is much general indignation against the Hurnburgbers for their conduct to the Prussian soldiery, who are in no wise responsible for the policy of their Government,and whose behaviour where ever they have been quartered has been highly com mended. COPENHAGEN, AUG. 18.—All the insurgent pri soners of war were, yesterday morning, conveyed to Allen, for the purpose of being exchanged. The official report has just been published o f the battle of Frederica. It is a lengthy document of nine folio pages. The strength of the Danish forces in that battle is given at 19,404; the reserve, however, consisting of 3,208 men, did not, for the most part, take a share in the engagement. The Danes were therefore two to one of the Schleswig-Holsteins. The loss of the Danes is given at 258 killed and 1,639 wounded; among whom 25 officers are given as killed, and 50 wounded, while 30 were taken pri soners.—Hamburgh papers, Aug. 21. ITALY. The Committee of the Sardinian Chamber of De puties has decided on adopting the Ministerial pro ject, and voting the indemnity of seventy-five millions to Austria. The Milan Gazette of the 18th publishes the fol fowing decree of amnesty : " EMPIRE OF AUSTRIA.—PROCLAMATION.' _ _ " Authorised by our most merciful Emperor Francis Joseph 1., I avail myself of the happy occasion of the glorious anniversary of his birth, to extend the pardon granted by my proclamation of the 12th inst. to the greater part of his subjects in flight from the Lombardo- Venetian kingdom, to those who remain in those pro vinces. I therefore proclaim:— " 1. Those who for political offences, that is to say, of high treason, rebellion, insurrection, or participation in such crimes, are the objects of prosecution, or, at least, in a state of arrest, shall be tat liberty. " 2. All the preliminary inquiries on account of such offences shall be suspended and discontinued. In general no one shall be called to account for the political events of 1848 and 1849. '.3. Those who, besides political offences, are tainted with any action punished by the penal laws, or who in the past political convulsions have been guilty of the murder, wounding, or capture of Austrian subjects (ex cept in open warfare), are excepted from the amnesty. Moreover, are excepted all the royal and imperial functionaries, and officers. The former, even though they may not have committed other taults, shall not be allowed to remain in their offices if they have taken a notorious part in the revolutions. The officers on duty and enjoying pensions will be subject to the conse quences of their criminal rroceedings. Officers who have abandoned the service and continued the military character, must lay down the latter; and those who have abandoned the service, and tilt retained the military character, shall be free from further responsibility. Also all royal functionaries, priests, masters, and employes, must resign their offices it they have been guilty of the aforesaid offences. "4. Those who have already been sentenced for simple political offences shall be set at liberty " 5. The respective authorities will take speedy mat ures to set at liberty all those coming within the terms of the amnesty. "6. There shall also be set "at liberty all who have been condemned or who are under arrest by way of pre caution for secondary political crimes. Arts. 1 and 2 will be applicable to the latter. Among these crimes are the expression of political opinions, the carrying party banners, singing songs misnamed patriotic, and the pro pogation of political writings, &c. " 7. As circumstances will not allow the taking off the state of siege, the dispositions relative thereto will remain in force. " 8. The amnesty is extended to those (not being of the army) who have enrolled in foreign service. "9. The present amnesty is confined to past offences, and any future transgressions of the law will bo rigor ously and severely punished. The effects of this pro clamation will not extend to Venice and its depen dencies. " May the people of the provinces acknowledge with gratitude, in this new act of the inexhaustible clemency of our Sovereign, his ardent desire to render them happy ; and may I soon be enabled to free liberty from her remaining link—the state of siege. " RADETZKY. " Milan, Aug. 16." The Government of Austria, in return for the ser vices rendered by it to the POPE and to the Dukes of PARMA and MODENA, has required that the naviga tion of the Po shall be rendered free. This principle was adopted by the Congress of Vienna in the year 1815, but it has never been carried into execution in consequence of the opposition given by the above three States, who found a pecuniary advantage in resisting. The Governments of Parma and of Modena have con sented to the demand of the Austrian Government, and it is not doubted but that the POPE will withdraw his opposition. The negotiations relative to this affair were directed by the Austrian Minister of Commerce during his last journey in Italy. YORK RACES. (THIS DAY.) (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) The Convivial Stakes.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 9,000 bales, including 4,000 on speculation. The sales include 200 Pernam, &c., at sd. to 6d.; 1,000 Bahia, at sid. to 6d.; 300 Egyptian at 64d. to 61d.; and 500 Surat at 34d. to 44d. per lb.—Railway Shares were not quite so good. The supply of Grain in Mark-lane to-day comprises 6,46o•quarters of foreign Wheat, and only 670 of English. There are 19,350 quarters of foreign Oats on sale. The markets for ct lonial and other produce have been generally very well supported this week, and there has been a good business done in the primary staples, in cluding Sugar, Coffee, and Spices. Coffee has been looked after more by speculators, especially Ceylon. Articles used for manufacturing purposes have had a good sale, and Cotton has been extensively dealt in at higher prices. The deliveries of Tea this year show an increase in the metropolis of about 2,000,000 lbs., while the stock is smaller to the same extent. The continental Stock Alarkets appear to be rather dull. At Paris yesterday less was doing, and prices were leebler. At Amsterdam on Wednesday there was very little alteration, and Spanish and Portuguese were dull, while Russian was in favour. The Vienna quota. tions of the Austrian Metalliques were on the 18th instant 94. The harvest reports from abroad continue vety cheering. It is stated in accounts from Resiia that the stock of specie in the Caisse d'Expedition for the redemption of bank notes having become reduced, it had been deemed necessary to replace it, and to convey thither fire millions of silver roubles from the fortress a St. Petersburgh. Accordingly this was done in the presence of numerous persons, and under a military escort. The amount was made up by 3,000,000 roubles in silver and 2,060,000 in gold. Sub sequently a Council was held. The amount was verified in presence of the leading native and foreign merchants, and Prince Alexander Ivanovitsch Tscher myscheff signed the " Acte" declaring, among other matters, that the sum remaining in the vt ults of St. Peter and St. Paul, after the drawing of the 5,000,060 of roubles, was 101,528,595 roubles. There has been some further correspondence sent to us upon the subject of Mexican Bonds, the tenor being that all further proceedings against Messrs. F. de Lizardi and Co., for the recovery of the Deferred Bonds which they declined to give up, are to be suspended by Messrs. Schneider. The tact is, however, that there were orders to this effect as far back as the 13th June, and whether an arrangement has been come to, or other parties are to prosecute the " dropped " suit remains to be seen. The translation of M. Arran goiz's letter of the 15th of June, at which date therefore the Minister was still in office, is as follows: " His Excellency the President has taken due note of your letter, No. 94, of the 6th of June last, in which, as the result of the consultation which had taken place o❑ the mode ur.ost proper for resuming the suit against Messrs. F. de Lizardi and Co., rela tive to the 784,350/. of Deferred Bonds, you indicate what steps should be taken with reference to this matter; but his Excellency having determined to suspend all proceedings against the said Messrs. F. de Lizardi and Co., as manifested to you officially on the 13th of June last, the matter must so remain ; and I state this to you in reply," &c. It will naturally ccaur to most people that M. Arran goiz would not take the trouble to issue an order, which his successor might immediately revoke, if he had an idea that he should have to resign because of the opposi tion of Congress to his plan fora settlement of the foreign debt. The English Funds are rather drooping to-day, but without any particular cause, There have been some money sales, but speculation is excessively dull. The news from Rome is not quite liked, and whether it may not portend renewed trouble in that quarter is the fear with many. At the same time, there is this obvious con sideration that England has throughout wisely kept aloof from this most " Catholic" squabble, and will certainly not be called upon to interfere now when the just pu nishment of arbitrary intermeddling is falling upon the Government of Louis Napoleon. Consols have been 92 1 , to 93 for both Money and Account, and r.re now 92aa for the former, and 924 * for the latter. Ex chequer-bills have been 435. to 465. premium.
