Numerous as are those grievances in the manage ment of the British Navy to which we have already very recently made allusion, they constitute only a fractional portion of the evils requiring to be gradually rectified and ultimately dissipated in that ' department of the public service of England. The impossibility of promotion to junior officers without interest is sufficiently deplorable. The extravagant increase of admirals and post-captains to a number preposterously superfluous when contrasted with the maritime forces of all the other nations of Europe, or even with our own marine power during the time of our bloodiest wars with NAPOLEON, is a piece of prodigality and ostentation enough to provoke the reprehension of the least economical. The total absence of any rational system for the manning of our vessels of war is another and an ample testimony of the want of some complete re-organization in the conduct of the Admiralty. Important, however, as are these themes for consideration, among those who would further the cause of reform in the Royal Navy of England, they are nevertheless in a great measure subordinate to a matter not yet, or at least not very recently, referred to by ourselves, a matter affecting the very basis of our strength as an empire, at once insular, colonial, and commercial. We allude now to the egregious want of all reasonable forethought, of all wholesome thrift, and of all mo derate circumspection in the construction of those great instruments of our national grandeur, of our imperial supremacy, and of our mercantile aptitude, upon the conservation of which not only our fame and our vigour, but our influence and our very existence are dependent. We allude to the faults perceptible in the regulation of our dockyards. We allude to the deficiencies visible in the plans from which our war vessels have hitherto emanated. We 'allude to the squandering, the blundering, the timi dity of improvement, and the destructive procrastina tion which glare upon us whenever we have the heart to investigate the chaos of our arrangements for ship building, the labyrinth of our schemes of naval archi• tect ure. According to the notorious custom of our maritime administrators, the vessels of war constructed to sustain our greatness on the ccean, to protect our enormous commerce, and to bind together our vast and scattered dominions, are brought forth through more perils and agonies than man himself, the grandest of all the miracles of creation. In the navy of England the labours of animal parturition are unutterably surpassed. Talk of the sufferings and difficulties consequent on utero-gestation, forsooth, hear tell of those coming under the cognizance of our maritime accoucheurs, of the male midwives of the dockyard, and be dumb ! Of all the disclosures of a like kind, commend us to the obstetric revelations of our shipwrights for whatever is most marvellous, preternatural, and very nearly beyond the limits of comprehension. It will there be seen, that while humanity requires at the most only a preparation before birth of some nine months, a vessel destined to bear " the flag that's braved a thousand years the battle and the breeze," must needs be allowed a tarrying. time before birth of a period of the most unconscion able duration. It is calculated that on the average 4ust as the gravedigger in Hamlet says, ruminatively, " a tanner may last you some seven year"—a ship of war may last you some fifteen or twenty years. And yet, knowing well enough the abbre viated existence of this noble species of machine, our sage and most circumspect shipwrights, with the connivance and it may be the direct encouragement of the Admiralty, allow the vessels to continue year after year on the stocks until the wood is positively decayed—new (!) frigates and three deckers sometimes absolutely rotting before they are launched " Thrift, thrift, Horatio!" these superintendents of our national supremacy over the seas are assuredly testifying very conspicuously in all this their incapacity to sustain the maritime character of England. Here, for example, they lessen the already sufficiently bri e f vitality of our ships of war on the shallow pretence that delays are necessary for the purpose of seasoning the timber ! although they know weal enough that not merely the difference between allowing wood to ripen or to rot, to become seasoned or to decay, but that absolutely no delay whatever, or, at least, no delay worthy of the name, is requisite to effect any such object. That consideration, however, only calls to mind another odious and miserable characteristic of the high, mighty, and puissant Seigniors presiding over the Admiralty—namely, their disinclination to listen to any project of improvement, how ever ft asible, however simple, or however economical ; nay, the very circumstances of THE SION, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 26- 1849 its feasibility, its simplicity, and especially of its economy, appear to raise insurmountable obstacles to its adoption in that department. This was sufficiently shown, we conceive, in the instance of that felicitous invention by which the necessity of delays for the purpose of seasoning the timber would have been entirely obviated. Those ,who are familiar with the records relating to the efficiency of the British Navy, cannot possibly have lost a recollection of the first disclosure of this important invention. A ship, called if we recollect rightly, the Samuel Enderby, was subjected to the preparation of corrosive subli mate employed in the system called Kyanizing, and after going through tho customary voyages it proved to be not only sound throughout, but, on examination, not a single sick case had been recorded in the log book, end even the very bilge-water was found to be sweet and limpid ! Yet an admirable discovery like this is permitted to pass by unadopted, and the vessels of war, with a limited existence before them of only fifteen or twenty years' duration, are still retained on the stocks, rotting under sheds erected to keep them from the inclemency of the weather, before they are attempted to be launched ! While this wretched economy is still persisted in, we are gratified to observe some tendency to improve ment in another direction—namely, in the adaptation to vessels of a larger sizs of steam, working through the aid of the screw propeller. By such an arrange ment as this it is obvious that a marvellous increase of capability must result to some of the noblest ships in the navy of England. Fitted up with the screw, each of them is transformed, as it were, from an in • animate log, dependent upon tide, wind, and canvass, into a creature literally " walking the water like a thing of life"—breathing, palpitating, and gifted, so to speak, almost with the faculty of volition. An extension of this provident scheme of blending the powers of steam with those of the thicr system of navigation cannot but effect much towards the development of the long abused and still dormant capacities of the maritime service of Great Britain. One: glimpse of improvement, one long vista of mismanagement has here been disclosed to the reader; other evils of an equally prejudicial character, relating to the structure of our war vessels, still remain unnoticed--cvils which we shall not fail to particularize, demanding as they do our most serious reprehension. Notwithstanding the assertions of those who de clared that it is utterly useless to bring encumbered estates in Ireland into the market for sale, purchasers, it appears, can still be found, and that at fair prices. The refusal of the House of Lords to sanction the clause fixing a maximum poor-rate has undoubtedly deterred English as well as Irish capitalists from making investments in what are popularly termed the " distressed unions." It could scarcely be supposed that any persons would assume upon themselves unlimited liabilities, that might possibly absorb the entire 'rental of the lands, on the forlorn hope of Government assistance. Bat whenever really well-circumstanced estates are submitted to public competition there is no lack of bidders at reasonable rates. A vast amount of pro- perty, to the value, it is said, of 3,000,0001. sterling, is about to be disposed of under the orders of the Commissioners for the Sale of Encumbered Estates. When the market is so fully supplied the demand must be very considerable indeed to prevent a great depreciation in prices ; yet we find that certain por tions of the Blessington estates, which were sold on Friday last in Master LITTON'S office, realised an avenge of 22 years' purchase, the aggregate rents sold being 888/. per annum, for which sums, amount ing in the whole to 19,2001, were obtained. It was also remarkable that not a single lot remained unsold, although reasonable prices were reserved in every instance, the amount of which were publicly an nounced. It should also be borne in mind that the sale did not take place under the late Act, and that consequently no Parliamentary title would be conferred upon the buyers. It was carried on under the Court of Chancery, according to immemorial custom. It is true that the title had already been investigated in tha Master's office, and objections taken to the report in its favour. These objections had been overruled, and the purchasers had in every instance been satisfied with the sound reasons adduced by Master LITTON in support of his decisions, and had declined to en counter the expense and delay of taking exceptions to his judgment. The well-known ability and profes sional knowledge of the Learned Master save the utmost weight to his decision, but even that decision, strengthened and confirmed as it was by the refusal of the purchasers of property to the value of 200,0001. to enter any appeal, could not be deemed as satisfactory as a conveyance from the Commissioners, which could never by any possibility be impeached, and which would constitute a " new root of title," that would materially diminish the expenses of any future transfer of the property so acquired. If, therefore, the sale had taken place under the new Act, it is more than probable that still higher prices would have been obtained prices which, considering the general depreciation of every description of property, would prove how little foun dation there is for the croaking of the alarmists, who prophecy the complete and irreparable ruin of the landed interest. From the above facts it is manifest that Ireland only requires the satisfactory settlement of two great questions to be placed in a condition of comparative prosperity, with the prospect of an early relief from her most pressing difficulties—an equitable arrange ment of the poor-law, and a large and comprehensive measure of reform in the law of landlord and tenant. The former is necessary to protect the property from being eaten up and destroyed by the poverty of the country. The latter to prevent the agrarian outrages, and the frauds practised even upon the most liberal and kind-hearted landlords—men, who are as illing to discharge the duties as they are to claim the rights incidendal to their position. Let it not be supposed that we desire that the poor and destitute should be deprived of a legal right to support whenever their necessities might require it. The " poverty " should be the first charge on "pro perty," even beyond that of mortgages, or other incumbrances. But there should be a fixed and ascertained limit beyond which no claim could possibly be made, the surplus being provided for by a national rate that would fall on the entire country, or even on the Consolidated Fund. Every encouragement should also be afforded to those who were disposed to provide for their own fair proportion of the poverty of the district. That paramount duty would not be discharged by "clearing their estates, by depopulating the country, making a desert and calling it peace," but by giving ample employment to the labouring population, improving their own estates, and developing the natural capabilities of the country, while they are enabling those who would otherwise become burdens on its resources to earn ,heir daily bread by their own honest industry. Again, the Landlord and Tenant question should be placed on a new footing, so that all parties should have a common: interest in the improvement of the soil, and that they should mutually co- operate fur the general benefit. This can only be attained by the recognition of the tenant-right custom, and its ex tension throughout the entire kingdom. When every tenant, whether holding under lease or not, has a certain right of property in the occupa tion, from which he cannot be removed so long as he performs his part of the contract, the best stimulus will be afforded to permanent and lasting improvements, and there will no longer be any motive for the abduction of crops, or nocturnal removals of produce. The occupier will always be enabled to dispose of his good-will for more than the arrears due to the landlord, who will then receive the full amount of his rental without being compelled to make a large deduction for bad debts. When these great points are satisfactorily arranged, there will be no lack of competitors for the purchase of lands in any district in I re l an d th a t ma y b e o ff ere d f o r p u bli c sale.' CLETucAL APPOIti TMENTS.—The Queen has ap pointed the Bev. Brownlow Maitland to the perpetual curacy of Brunswick-street Chapel, in the district of Marylebone. The Lord Chancellor has presented the It-,v. John Burden to the living of Welsh Bickner, in the diocese of Hereford. THE MODEL REPUDLIC.—The Boston Emlnci rotor states that an inquest being held recently on the 1)94 of a female slave, whipped to death by her master a jury of planters returned the compl a i sant and con siderate verdict—" Died of apoplexy brought on by e x . citement." THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of Saturday and yesterday. General LAMORICIERE, the Minister to St. Peters burgh, and M. GUSTAVE DE BEAUMONT, the Minis ter to Vienna, have tendered their resignations, incon sequence of the dismissal of the late Ministry. The Patrie says— " After the incident in the sitting of Thursday, in which M.. Pierre Bonaparte pointed out M. de Persigny the adviser of the measure of the Government against him, the latter gentleman went to the President of the Republic, and told him that, as he had been unjustly attacked by one of his cousins, and could not 'demand satisfaction from a Bonaparte, after fourteen years of devotedness to his family, and eight years of captivity for its cause, he had brought him his resignation as an ( , flicer attached to his person. The President of the Republic positively refused to receive the resignation of M. de Persigny. The pains of Sunday publish the following official account of the duel fought on Saturday be tween M. PIERRE BONAPARTE and M. DE ROVIGO " The undersigned certify the following facts:—A rencentre has taken place between M. Pierre Napoleon Bonaparte, representative of the people, and M. Rex 6 de Rovigo, hornme de lettres, editor of the Co-sage. It had been arranged between the seconds of the two par ties that the duel should commence with the sabre, and continue with the small sword after the first wound. The adversaries, with the sabre in their hands, having been placed at a distance of three paces from each other, marched the one upon the other. M. Pierre Bonaparte having attacked, was stopped at the second pass by a coup de poiute, which touched him on the left side of the breast, and on the corresponding hand. Bat at the same moment the sabre of M. de Rovigo fell to the ground, and on the cry of the seconds, arreter, M. Boriaparte,' the hand raised stopped in fact. The wounds of M. Bona parte not having appeared to his seconds sufficiewlygrave to put an end to the duel, they proposed to him re continue the combat with the sabre, on the ground that the circumstance of the disarming should T ims• sarily modify the first conventions. The seconds of M. de Rovigo, relying exclusively on the first conditions, declared that the combat should take place, and take place only with the sword. 'l'o take a middle course, the second; of M. Bonaparte proposed, in the name of M. Pierre Bonaparte, who was consulted, to continue the combat with the pistol, and the seconds of M. de Rovigo thought it their duty to refuse: " For M. Bonaparte—M.M. AUGUSTE POLI, MAECHAL (de Celli). "For M. de Rovigo—M.M. LOUIS PAIRA, ALBERT (de Cotto)." The duel between M. PIERRE BONAPARTE and M. VALETTE was to take place yesterday. The Assembly has rejected the proposition for re storing the statue of the Duke of ORLEANS, which formerly stood in the courtyard of the Louvre. The PRESIDENT of the Republic, on the report of the Minister of the Marine, has ordered the formation of a Commission to be presided over by M. de Broglie, , awl to be composed of the following members M. 11. Palsy, de Tracy, Admiral Cecille, Adeeiral Laine, de Lanese% Betting de Lancastell, Fournier, and Ilubert de Lisle, representatives; MM. Jubelin and Behic, Councillors of State ; M. Isambcrt, Councillor of the Court of Cessation; M. Calos, ex - Dircetor of the Colonies ; M. Mestro, Director of the Colonies; M. Sully-Bruner, ex-Delegate of the Colonies ; M. Demoly, Councillor of the Court of Appeal of Martinique; and M. Lepelletier Saint Remy, Chef de Bureau of the Direction of the Co lonies as ;Soeretary. The object of the Commission is to consider the best mode to be adopted in con sequence of the change in the colonies by the aboli tion of slavery, and the alteration in their legislative and judicial regime, from their being admitted to be represented in the National Assembly. The Committee on Public Assistance has taken into consideration the Bill on the creation of a pension fund for workmen. The amount of funds required for such a plan being estimated at not less than 200 millions, whilst it might even reach 700 millions, it is not supposed that the Minister of Finance will consent to affix his signature to such a measure. This project for the creation of a pension -fund for aged workmen has long been a pet scheme with the PRESIDENT of the Republic, and has already nearly occasioned a rupture between him and M. ACIIILLE FOULD, who is a determined opponent of all propositions of this nature. The Siecle says— " According to tho rumours which are afloat, the President of the Republic called on the Minister of Commerce to present his project touching the caisses de retraites to the Assembly, without speaking of it to the other Ministers. The Minister of Commerce, instead of doing so, handed it to the Committee of Public Aid and Assistance. This middle eourse only served to offend the President and Ministers alike, and especially the Minister of Finance. It was the annoyance expressed by the latter which served to give rise to the rumour of his intended resignation. The Committee, it appears, disapproves of the project, which to have carried into effect would require a grant from the State of several hundred millions of francs." The reactionary club of the Conseil d'Etat met on Friday under the presidence of M. MOLE, when it was decided that the club would take no part in the forthcoming elections. The PRESIDENT of the Republic is extremely de sirous of proclaiming a general amnesty, from which those only would be excluded who had taken flight and not purged their contumacy. He, however, relue. tautly yielded on Saturdly to the representations of his Ministers, and deferred putting his intentions into execution for the present. The ground on which the Ministers opposed the project of amnesty was the danger to be apprehended from the turning loose upon society such men as BARBES and BLAaquz on the eve of the thirty elections which are now about to take place. Accounts from Tangiers state that the Morocco Government has given all the satisfaction demanded by France: The Reforme publishes the following letter, dated Nov. 22, from M. CRAUEET, the founder and director of the Cites-Ouvrieres " Sir,—You inserted in your yesterday's journal an ar ticley.hich I wrote to rectify. You have been quite misin formed relative to the state of the Cite-Ouvriere, in the rue Rochechcuart, and the cause of the cessation of the works. The President of the Republic, whom you men tion as not having fulfilled his engagements, has paid the whole) of the 50,000 fr. which he subscribed, as did the editor of the Presse, who, like the President, an ticipated the time of his payments. The other payments being made slowly have caused me to diminish the num. ber of the workmen; but the works have never been stopped. The building has arrived at the point of put ting on the roof, which will shortly be effected, and the will be terminated towards the end of January. I am certain, Sir, that you would not wish to be the echo of a rumour which might in some measure be injurious to the work of these Ciais; and consequently I have to request you to insert this little rectification in y our next number.' The Conatitationnel has the following remarks on the affairs of Algeria:— " The siege of Zaatcha, as we see by the accounts given by the Moniteur Algerian, continues to proceed with the same slowness, but also with new complioa'ions. The defection of the Nomado tribes is now fully con firmed, and is a most important fact. After having forced the passage of the Megaouss, their numerous horsemen have arrived to the assistance of the revolted Arabs, and we much doubt whether the . convoys reach the French camp so regularly as the official organ of tee Government of Algiers pretends. If we may credit our letters from that quarter, the road from Constantina to Ba thua and Biskara, is at this time completely intercepted. No error, however, should be allowed in the Moniteur Alga rims ; the Governor-General is near to watch over and prevent any incorrect accounts. W o are told to hope that the negotiations of the Chiek-el-Arab will be successful in bringing the misguided men to reason, but we dare not hope that such will be the case. Will the Arabs, who become so intoxicated by the first appearance of success, be disposed to lay down their arms when, for the first time, they have thus suc ceeded in paralysing the action of our forces? The in decision and the inertness of those who command are an encouragement to revolt, and these people whom Mar shal Bugeaud had accustomed to such prompt and ener getic repression, must now put faith in the words of the Marabouts who translate the word republic, unknown in their language, by an Arabjeu de mot (raibon beglik), overthrow of the Government. This is the first time such a state of things has occurred in the history of our conquest; 11,000 b a y one t s are un i te d to vanquish a re sistance which has already cost us 800 men in killed and wounded. Marshal Bugeaud had not so many when the whole force of Morocco advanced against Algeria. But then the Marshal had considered it his duty to he on the spot in person. He called to mind that if, in the council his pen signed orders, his sword was necessary in the hour of revolt."

MEUNDERSTANDING WITH AUSTRIA. Liters from Ihrlin of the 23d state that Austria has aide a formal protest against the convocation of the Grman Parliament, and has even hinted of aa intervntion by that power. A Cabinet Council was immeaately assembled, and, after having adopted the inject of law relative to the elections to the Germn Parliament, the Ministry agreed upon a reply o Austria. This reply was instantly sent to Vienna It maintains energetically the rights of Gerrmr,y, and declares that Prussia will wait for the carryiq out of the threats of violent interventim containd in the Austrian note. The Prussian Staats Anzeiger of this day con tains a ..oyal proclamation denouncing al: persons who shal he guilty of insulting the soldiers, or in ducing Clem to desert or disobey the commands of their superiors. Tae F.rst Chamber of Prussia on the 21st was again occupied in the revision of the Constitution. It adopi...d the articles enacting that the legislative power shoull be exercised in common by the KING and the two Clambers.

An ordinance of the King of PRUISIA, dated the 21st, threatens any person who may excite the soldiers to disobedience with from six weeks to two years' imprisonment. compromises the liberties of the country; they are ender the protection of the venerated memory of Charles Albert, my father; they are confided to the honour of the House of ,Savoy; they aro protected by the sanc tity of my oath; who will dare to fear for them? Before the meeting of Parliament I addressed to the nation, and particularly to the electors, my real sentiments. In my proclamation of July 3, 1349, I exhorted them to set in such a manner that the Constitution should not become an impossibility; but a third part of the electors only took a share in the elections; the rest neglected to exercise a right which is the strict duty of every one in a free state. I have performed ray duty ; why did they not perform theirs ? In a speech from the throne, I laid before the country — and it was but too needful—the melancholy position of the state. I proved the necessity of making a truce with the passion of party, and to resolve promptly all questions that touched the vital interests of the public. My words were dictated by a profound love of my coun try, and by a loyalty without stain. What fruit have they obtained? The first acts of the Chamber were hos tile to the crown. The Chamber used its right; but if I had blotted certain things from my memory, ought it not to have done so likewise ? I passed in silence the unreasonable opposition of the policy that my Ministers acted upon lot ally, and which was the only policy they could adopt. I pass in silence its last acts, directed agninst the prerogatives granted by the law of the lend. But I have a right to demand a severe account from. the Climber of its la.t acts, and I appeal agsitat them to the judgment of Italy and of Europe. 1 hare concluded with Austria an honourable—and not a ruinous treaty—one such as the good of the country required. The honour of the country, and the sanctity of my oaths require that it should be executed faith fully, without reservation, and without subterfuge. My Ministers having demanded the ratification of it from the Chambers, which in inserting one condition rendered the ratificati )n unacceptable, and destroyed the recipro cal iedspendence of the three powers, and violated the constitution of the kingdom. I have sworn to do jus tice and to preserve to every one the free exercise of his rights. I have promised to save the nation from the tyranny of parties, whatever might be the station, the name, or the rank of the men who com pose them. These promises, these oaths I have kept in dissolving a Chamber which refused to d) its duty—l have fulfilled them in convoking another Chamber ; bat if the country, if the electors refuse me ;heir aid, the responsibility of the future will no longer rest on me ; and from the disorders that may spring up, they will not have me to accuse, but must themselves bear the blame. If I have thought it my da'y to speak severely on this occasion, I hope that your good and the just feeling will recognise that they bear marks of the profound love of my people and of their true interests, and that they will derive strength Cron my firm resolve to msintain their liberties, and to defend them against all enemies, foreign and native. Never to this day Iris the house of Savoy had recourse in vain to the fidslity, the good sense, and to the love of its people. I have then the right to reckon on them in these circum stances, and to be convinced that, united, we can save the constitution and the country from the dangers that menace them.

THROWING STONES AT THE TRAINS ON THE SOUTH WESTERN AND WINDSOR LINE.—On Saturday George Fietcher, William Stuckley, and Henry Harris, boys varying in age from twelve to fourteen years, were brought before the magistrate at Twickenham, charged with throwing stones at a train on the South-Western and Windsor Heil way, and thereby injuring Wm. Dear, the fireman of the "Charon" engine. The offence was proved by the evidence of several witnesses, and it ap peared that the practice was one of frequent occurrence. A young gentleman was at present an inmate at the Ophthalmic Hospital, at Charing-cress, who had been struck in the eye by a stone whilst travelling on this line, and it was feared ho would lose the use of that organ. The prisoners made no denial of the charge. The magistrates observed that under the General Rail way Act they had the power to commit the prisoners for trial, for the misdemeanour, which rendered them liable to two years' imprisonment with hard labour, and were it not for their youth they would have been com mitted, for this was a most dangerous nuisance, and if not suppressed people would become so alarmed as to cease travelling by the railways. In this instance the prisoners were committed to the Westminster Bridewell for ono month each, with hard labour, but in all future cases they would put the extremity of the la Jun. law in force. We have great pleasure in announcing the ap pointment of Mr. W. Langdon , (son of Mr. Lang don, of Union-street, Stonehouse), as Chief Accountant and Assistant Secretary to the Great Indian Peninsular Railway Company, at a salary of 500 rupees per month, about 6001 per annum. Wo understand there were fifty candidates, therefore the appointment has the test of merit. Mr. L. wilt leave Southampton with the staff of the company by the December Oriental mail steamer for Alexandria en route to Bombay.—Devorqp)rt Independent. DEATH OF ME. WILLIAM KELLEHER.—It is with deep regret that wo have to announce the death of this worthy citizen, who was so few days back the living object of public gratitude and merited praise.

SPRING FRUIT IN NOVEMBER.—During the week we have had sent us some bunches of ripe raspberries, a few strawberries, and also a bunch of raspberry blossom, the whole of which was gathered in the garden of Joseph Elye, Eq., F,lt. S., of Swilly Lodge. The fruit was all very fine, and amorgst it was a strawberry mea suring nearly four ine!)es is diemeter. So mild has the weather been during the season ,that in many sheltered localities in this neighbourhood may be seen the full green bud, as in spring, and the apple and pear blossom blending their gay and delicate colours with the rich fiats of the autumnal foliage.—Devonport Independent, MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on Saturday were about 4,500 bales, including 3,500 American at 5d to to 6A ; 300 Brazil at 6i to 7d; and 200 Surat at 41 to 44.-IWlway Shares were very dull, and prices had a downward tendency. The Grain market is slow to day. The arrivals of wheat last week were large, including 35,644 quarters cf Foreign. The following is a statement upon the sul ject of the Iron•trade, contained in Aris's Birmingham Gazette of to-day : " The improved tone of feeling that we reported al existing here a fortnight ago, appears not to have entirely subsided, although at present scarcely any beneficial results have followed. Among the manufacturers more inquiry for pig-iron has shown itself, and several parcels have been placed, but not at higher figures. his re ported that Lctive preparations are in progress fur resuming work at four of the blast furnaces belonging to L)rd Ward, at present idle. In the meantime other works have been bronlat to a standstill through total absence of orders, and two furnaces have been blown out. The dealers and merchants in London, Manchester, and Liverpool, are excessively reserved, and although they appear to hold some orders for parcels of various descriptions, they will not give them out except at a concession iu price. We have heard of bars delivered at 51 155., and hoops at 61. 155., which, with carriage and usual allowance, could scarcely have realised 51 53. and 61.55. at the work-i. " It may afford matter of surprise to some that the iron trade should still continue in so languishing anti unrcanunerative a condition, and that, in the face of the immense increase of activity, the additional half mil lion of exports during the past nine months would appa rently indicate, prices should even yet exhibit rather a declining tendency. To account fur so anomalous a position, we must turn from represcn'etion to reality, from a visionary future to the actual future, from the dreams of the theorist to the hiitory of facts and the relation of ev , ry-dey transactions. " Labouring under al i xeess of make, and controlled by the cheap unwieldy produce of other districts, with which, through the improved facilities of transit, Staf forthhiro is now continually coming in collision, our manufacturers are dispirited, or recklessly disposing of their wares at prices below the bounds of prudence, if not of actual cost. In every branch underselling is com plained of, and unfair advantages are taken to monopolize the scanty supply required by an inactive market." The Cape of Good Hope accounts of September 26th furnish nosbitag important in a commercial sense, the colony being as much excited as ever upon the trans portation cpiestion. A fact is mentioned, however, which requires to be noted, because similar disgraceful cheats have occurred before. A bale of wool intended for shipment to England was opened at Port Eiztbeth, and found to contain n huge stone, weighing 57lbs. The Ramo of the farmer who sent it is publicly announced, but he shifts the blame on to somebody else. Minor frauds have best frequently complained of hero by the brokers and wool-buvers.

In one quarter we hear of Lord Arundel as being likely to start, in another that a request has been made to Mr. Edwin James, the barrister, who, it will be recollected, canvassed the borough at the last election with Lord Ed ward Russell, the present Member, to come forward. Should the Protectionists bring forth a candidate; it is expected that he will appear in the person of Mr. Lyon, of Goring. AUSTRIA. Tic Austrian Lloyd's publishes a letter from War saw of the 19th, which states thlt in consequence of sevenl demands of amnesty having been atbiressed to the Covernment of Poland by Polish refugees, an invitaion had been issued by the Government to the reugees abroad to return forthwith to their countr; adding that, in default, they will have to undergt the sentences pronounced on them.

DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS WITH AUSTRIA AND RUSSIA. The Constitutionnel of yesterday publishes a letter from Constaninople, dated Nov. 7, which announces that the diplomatic relations between the Porte and the representatives of Austria and Russia have been resumed, M. Di; TITOW, the Russian Minister, having paid a visit to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, on the sth, and Count STURMER, the Austrian Internuncio, having visited him on the day following. They stated to that Minister that their respective Sovereigns, having heard the explanations of the Ministers of SULTAN, were willing to resume negotiations. These advances on the part of the Russian and Austrian representatives were met with cordiality by the Turkish Minister. Austria appears satisfied with what Turkey has already done by transport ing the Hungarian refugees to the interior, and does not demand anything further. Rus sia, on the contrary, demands that the Polish refugees shall be expelled from the Ottoman empire, and that the chiefs shall be imprisoned in a fortress, the Forte being responsible for their safe custody, without excepting even those emigrants who, like BEM, have embraced the Mahometan faith. It is said that Russia also requires the expulsion of a cer tain number of Poles, who have been for many years inhabitants of the Ottoman States. The Porte re ceived these propositions in such a manner as to show that they would not be accepted • and a council was to be h e ld on th e 7th t o t a k e them into consideration. The Russian Minister is excessively annoyed at the presence of the British fleet in the Dardanelles, which he declares is a violation of the treaty, and has, it is said, refused to enter into negotiations until the English fleet shall have quitted the Straits. The Reforme Allemande of the 20th announces that the British fleet, under the com mand of Sir WILLIAM PARKER, had retired from the Dardanelles at the request of the Porte. IT A IA Y. DISSOLUTION OF THE PIEDMONTESE CHAMBER. The Chamber of Deputies was dissolved by Royal decree on the 20th ; the elections are to take place in Piedmont and Savoy on the 9th, and in Sardinia on the 13th December, and the Chamber is to meet on the 20th. The decree of dissolution was published in the Gazette, preceded by a Ministerial report, and fol lowed by a Royal manifesto. The following is the report of the Ministers to the KING :- "Sire,—When your Majesty, faithful to your pro mises, and firm in that good faith which is'the pride and glory of the illustrious house of Savoy, summoned in July last the Chambers of the Kingdom, the Ministry bad the most flattering hopes from that measure. It was not able to have the least doubt but that the pre servation of the public franchises, being the best means of maintaining union between the Sovereign and the nation, it was fit to place them in safety against all attacks, by calling the representatives of the nation to participate in the guarding of that sacred body. "The Chamber of Deputies, according to the opision of the Council of Ministers, has not properly understood its mission, which was one of peace and concord. The deliberations of the legislative body has not answered the expectations of the country. Its last vote is uncon stitutional; and it is not before an unconstitutional vote that Ministers ought to resign,—a Ministry whose in tentions have always Waded to the consolidation of the liberties granted to us by the magnanimous Charles Albert. " The Ministry requested the Chamber to approve of the treaty of peace, and it had reasonable hopes that it would have been approved, the Chamber having already authorised the payment of the first instalment of the war indemnity, and handing over to Austria the bonds for the other 60 millions. A contrary course has, however, been pursued. After four days' discussion, in which the necessity of accepting the treaty was acknowledged, it was proposed, by a resolution of the Chamber, to provide for the refugees of the provinces which had been united to the state is virtue of the laws passed last year by the Parliament. The Ministers, of course, pointed out that it was impossible to make those special dispo sitions a condition of accepting the treaty; at the same time it stated that the intentions of the Government were favourable to these refugees, and especially those who were excluded from the armistice. The Ministers also represented to the Chambers that the approval of the treaty was a matter of great urgency, and declared its readiness to present a project of law relative to the refugees, insisting, however, on the necessity of the de liberation it required. " The promise of the Ministry having been accepted, and the suspension of the deliberations having been post poned till a law of this nature should be prepared, the suspension of the seasion was decreed. " The unconstitutional nature of the vote is evident to whoever reflects that the vote encroaches on the inde pendence of the three Powers, while the approbation of the treaty is made to depend on the acceptance of a law by the Senate, whose acquiescence in it the Ministry is not able to guarantee, and moreover without taking into account the grave difficulty which the Ministry would have to encounter in the presentation of a law in face of the 56th article of the statute, for a similar law had already been discussed and rejected by the Senate. " It was in this state of things that the Ministry pro posed to your Majesty the prorogation of the session of Parliament contained in the proclamation of the 17th inst.; and now, after the most mature consideration, proposes to your Majesty to make a fresh appeal to the country by the means of a dissolution of the present elective Chamber, and the prompt meeting of a new one —a meeting the more necessary as, on the Ist of De. cember, the power given from month to month to raise and apply the taxes will cease. " A longer delay would lead the country into great difficulties. The country will easily comprehend the position of the Ministry. It will know how to come in aid of the true and loyal by voluntary meetings, and assisting it to defray the ordinary charges of the Sate. Nevertheless, the Ministry do not wish to dissemble the gravity of the circumstances in which the electors are called to elect deputies for the fourth time in less than two years. But, on the other hand, it has confidence that the nation will comprehend that it ought to be ap plied to in such grave circumstances, and that in an• swering to the frank appeal of the King, it will be able to consolidate for ever the free institutions which should be its happiness, as they are already the greatest glory of the sovereignty, and that each elector ail! perceive that the welfare of the country is in his hands. " I have the honour, So, (Signed) " GALVAGNO, Minister of the Interior." The following is the Royal manifesto to the nation : "Amidst the circumstances in which we are placed, the good f , ith of which I believe I have given proof to this day, as well by my words as by my acts, ought to suffise to banish from your minds ell uncertainty. I suffer, nevertheless, if not the want at least the desire to address to my people a new pledge of security, and at the same time an expression of my justice and my truth.l The dissolution of the Chamber of Deputies in no way Dividends Contle;,above payable in London.
