He must be inexperienced, indeed, in the ways of the world, a mere tyro in the rudiments of social morality, who is unacquainted with the one funda mental rule by which worldly praise and censure are distributed—" Success is virtue, and misfortune shame." It was not left for recent events to teach this all important fact, the pages of history and the occurrences of daily life continually corroborate its truth. Therefore it is a matter of no surprise, but, on the contrary, the most natural circumstance ima ginable that the fall of Hungary should have elicited as sincere tokens of satisfaction and as hearty exulta tion (and from the very same individuals) as would have been bestowed on Hungary triumphant and independent. Had victory waived on the banners of the Hungarians, KossuTu and his Generals would have been eulogised as heroes—the " rebels" would have been . ," patriots," the Russians invaders, and the Austrians usurpers. Now, however, these last are legitimate rulers," their Government " popular," and GEORGEY—GEORGEY, forsooth ! is the represen tative of the " moderate constitutional Magyars." Praise is sometimes more hateful than censure, and if he have one spark of honourable feeling left the commendations of the enemies of Hungary must grate harshly in the ears of the protege of PASREWITCII. A few weeks ago the & inditer of that victorious dis patch of heart-thrilling brevity which told of the emancipation of Buda,AßTEims GrzoßGEY,was the hero of the hour—his name was reiterated by admiring lips, not only in his own country but wherever the strug gle for freedom was sympathised with. Now, fallen from his pride of integrity, at his name cheeks flush with indignation, and hearts are rent with the pangs of disappointment. We can wish no heavier penalty for the author of so much woe than the ignominy he has brought upon himself, and the remorse which will be its inevitable consequence. It seems strange, nevertheless, to have GEORGE; alternately a " rebel" and a traitor, cited as a representative of the moderate constitutional Mag yars. Be this as it may, it is not strange, according to the rule we have above referred to, that the cause of Hungarian independence should be reviled now that it seems hopeless of success, and that the sympathy of England should be derided when that sympathy is found to be on the falling side. "All England," exclaims one of our contemporaries, in accents of supreme derision, " has been warmed with Hungarian sympathy." Never did journalist indite a truer sentence. All England has been warmed, and is still glowing, with sympathy for the Hungarians. And where is the matter for marvel ? If the cause of a nation struggling to assert its nationality, if the efforts of a band of patriots to ensure the constitu tional rights of their country, if the resistance of indignant men to a foe who declares war not only on their individual liberties, but against their very women and children—if such a cause, if such efforts, and such indignation ;night count on the sympathy of every nation that loves right and liberty, then assuredly KOSSUTH did not frame his protest in vain. England to her heart's core did sympathise with Hungary. Bat, continues our contemporary with what is meant to be a cruelly telling sarcasm, ',Hun gary has succumbed, and where is British sympathy ? Pray, gentlemen, what is the value of your friend ship ?" Had those in high pieces rightly fulfilled their trust the above question had never been pro pounded. The effects of British sympathy would have been unmistakeably manifest. As it is, ti.at sympathy has not been given in vain. The strong feelings of the English nation on this question will not go for nothing in the adjustment of Hungarian affairs. The people of this country will not sit tamely by to witness a second scene of the annihilation of Poland. If the constituent rights of Hungary be not, even now, guaranteed to her, Lord PALIVIERSTON will have forfeited the high place he has hitherto so justly held in the estimation of the lovers of liberty in this country. If the liberties of Hungary be utterly sacrificed, the next session will give an untnistakeable proof of the strength of British sympathy with the Hungarian cause. In the meantime, let the unani mity of the friends of freedom encourage and stimu late our lukewarm Liberal rulers. Let renewed courage and unwavering confidence be our answer to the taunts of time-serving opponents. Let us have no GEOR GEY in our ranks, and ere long the value of British sympathy will elicit the eulogy of those whose suffrages are awarded to success. The affairs of a community may progress with a fair degree of satisfaction and prosperity under a Poi fainéant, provided he be surrounded by ministers of activity and prudence; but no potentate or leader, however energetic and industrious, can by his single exertions compensate for the laziness or fatuity of his official staff. The Noble Chairman of the Waterford and Limerick Railway Company appears to be ham pered with a knot of drowsy or demented directors. Personally disinterested as we are in the affairs of this company, possessing neither a single share therein, nor an acre of ground which would be inter sected by the line, but well knowing the vast advan tages which would necessarily result from its ultimate success to a district of unsurpassed fertility and capabilities a district which needs but the development of its own natural wealth to compete with the most favoured region of the em pire for security and enhancement of property, and for profitable investment of capital—we cannot but feel a very considerable degree of indignation at the slothfulness of spirit which threatens to swamp an 1 1 4 / ' rtaking of paramount national importance. r have already taken occasion to animadvert upon j the _ulpable refusal of the Chancellor of the Ex , - e4efitter to extend Government assistance towards the 1. *:.7 -4 eloTopfetion of this line ; yet we hoped that the cold neglict of the Government would not be permitted to s" THE 71 1 SUN, blight an enterprise of so much promise, but that no stone would be left unturned on the part of the directors to procure the necessary amount of capital from private sources. It was therefore with feelings of interest, and in anticipation of perusing some satisfactory intelligence on this head, that we looked for the report of the half yearly meeting of the company. This meeting• was held at Waterford on the 30th of last month, and the directors " expressed a hope that the completion of the line to Waterford was not far distant." Expressed a hope ! These heavy-bottomed gentlemen may depend upon it that if they calmly squat themselves down in the easy chair of Hope this is not the last occasion on which no dividend will be declared. N e t a syllable was vouchsafed as to whether a loan was likely to be got, or even whether any negotiations had been set on foot to procure one. If anything had been really done, why not say a word to cheer the shareholders and vindicate themselves ? No man of common sense can suppose that applications properly preferred for that purpose, could have been hopelessly scouted in every quarter. There is either gross negligence or absurd mistification. "Allusion was made to a project recently broached—namely, to get up a new company to make the line from Clonmel to Waterford, presuming the old company unable to do so. The directors of the latter showed themselves hostile to the new proposition, and it is not to be followed up at present." Now we feel pretty well assured that the presumption of the inability of the original company is based on a solid foundation, and that if they are to be allowed to prolong their sleepy rule, only giving evidence of vitality by a waking fit every six months for the purpose of saying nothing—affairs will keep going on from bad to worse till they finally attain the vanishing point. We should be very sorry to use the precise terms em ployed by CROMWELL in turning out the Rump Par lianlent, but we do say to the present congregation of incapables, " Get ye gone ; give place to abler men."' What are the intelligent people of Waterford or Clonmel about? Is the " urbs intacta" fallen into that state of leaden lethargy which seems to oppress all cathedral towns , and is " sweet Clonmel " infected with the like lassitude ? The whole affair transcends our comp rehension. It were s w u o p u e l r a fi e u n on su s e to froma dwell upon the vast advantages communicationhich which wouldcompletion by rail between the cities of Limerick and Waterford to the rich and populous intermediate country ; but let the admirable position and accommodations of the latter port be considered for a moment, and what can be said in defence of the listlessness of its mercantile inhabitants ? A river, varying from twenty to ninety feet in depth at low water, navigable at all times of the tide, and of great width—a line of quays, ranging upwards of a mile, and capable of considerable exten sion—a city, the natural market for a populous district, containing six large towns and several villages, and by situation the point of direct connexicn with South Wales and the southern counties of England, and the proper opening up of whose port would enlarge the market whence they can most rapidly and most easily obtain their Irish supplies of corn, butter, and bacon,—these and several consequent features of importance, daily declining in value from the facilities of carriage which now induce both buyers and sellers from the. above-mentioned localities to frequent the markets of Dublin and Limerick in preference to those of Waterford, their natural centre —and yet, good easy people, they sit in stolid satis faction, and the directors "express a hope" that all will be right some fine morning ! What the upshot of affairs may be we care not to predict, but of one thing we feel perfectly assured, that under the present constitution of its directory, the completion of the Waterford and Limerick Railway is not to be expected before the Greek Kalends. Elsewhere in our impression of this evening will be found a communication upon the subject of drainage, which is eminently deserving of the attention of agri culturists. Our correapondent has evidently studied his Virgil to some purpose ; the " Georgics" have proved to him a text-book strikingly suggestive. Doubtless the subject would have admitted ad mirably of extension to the compass of a pamphlet; but the writer has manifestly, in con densing it into the brief and readable proportions of an article in a public journal, been solicitous to obtain more readers by making a smaller amount of pretension. Besides, he might well have called ;o remembrance the sarcastic dictum of Mr. DISRAELI, that "everybody who publishes a pamphlet knows that nobody reads it." Much might be said by ourselves in further illustration of the argument advanced by our correspondent, but for the present we shall rest contented with simply drawing the particular atten tion of the public to his suggestion, leaving himself to be his own advocate and the unaided exponent of his own ingenious opinions. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. The Paris journals of yesterday have been received. Everything seems to indicate already that the letter of the PRESIDENT to M. E. NEY is effecting, if it has not actually at this moment effected, an estrangement among the different members of the Administration The present Cabinet is evidently falling to pieces; and even now the rumour is prevalent that the Ministers of War and Public Instruction have sent in their resignation. As yet, however, the Aloniteur contains no announcement that either M. D PAL- Lout or General RULHIERES hare returned their several portfolios. . _ A paragraph in the Patric of Sunday night cer tainly appeared to the following effect : " Several journals have stated that the Minister of Public Instruction had quitted Paris in consequence of a profound disagreement between him and the other mem• bers of the Cabinet, on the occasion of the letter of the President of the 'Republic to Colonel Ney. These journals are ill-informed. M. de Falloux was present before his departure at the Council of Ministers, at which the President communicated his letter. M. de Falloux gare to this letter his entire approbation." Although the word communique subjoined to this piece of intelligence scemed to intimate that it was of a decidedly official character, such a supposition was altogether removed yesterday morning by the appear ance of this explicit contradiction in the columns of the illoniteur "The note published by the Pattie was not communi catcd by M. de Falloux ; he could not have authorised the terms in which it was drawn up. The letter of the President of the Republic was altogetber non-official, and excluded all idea of publicity."; From the foregoing it is evident that a decided difference of opinion has arisen in the Ministry, and that to this difference of opinion is now added a sense of doubhi-dealing, if not of actual intrigue. Another circumstance must ba borne in recollec- tion, that as vet not one of the Ministers has met the eh illenge thrown out by the organs of the Opposition, to cover the respoLsibility of Lours N APOLEON by any official approval of his proceeding. Besides the divisions caused among the statesmen at Paris by the letter of the PRESIDENT, its publication has excited the utmost pain, and if the truth might be told, the deepest indignation both at Rome and Gaeta. Letters from both these places express the arnsz2ment caused by the language of Prince LOUIS NAPOLEON. By the 28th ult. his HOLINESS was made acquainted with the letter ad dressed by that personage, to one of his aides•de camp. A ccpy of the document having been at once forwarded to Gaeta by one of the Cardinals of the Commission of Government, that copy w laid before the Holy Father by his secretary, Cardinal ANTO NELLI. All that Pius IX. did, on reading it, was to fold his arms and look up to heaven for a few moments ; then handed back the letter to the Cardinal, without uttering a word. The first impression of the POPE appears to have been rather astonishment than any other feeling. _ _ _ A deliberation of the Cardinals assembled at Gaeta took place on the following day, the 29th, when they arrived at the following important decision :—That the Papal Court ought not to take any notice whatever of the letter in question, but ought to act as if it was ignorant of its very existence, and for this reason, that the document had no diplomatic character, being simply a confidential missive from the PRESIDENT of the Republic to one of his orderly officers. His HOLINESS having approved of this resolution, the fact was at once announced to Mgr. FORNART, the Apostolic Nuncio at Paris, for the guidance of his Conduct when in communication with the PRESIDENT or with any one of his Government. Accordin g ly M gr . P ORNARI h a d an i n t erv i ew w i t h the PRESIDENT of the Republic on the 7th instant, but far from protesting against what had been done, never so much as alluded in any way whatever to the letter.

DUFAURE. In his inauguration of the Lyons Railway, the PRINCE was received m ith, if possible, yet greater enthusiasm than that evinced towards him at Stras burg. At Fontainbleau, and especially at Montereau, the cries were vociferous of Vive Napoleon! Vive L'Empereur des Francaise! The speech of the PRESIDENT, when returning thanks for his health being proposed at the banquet at Sens, was loudly cheered. On Sunday night he re turned from the excursion. The Union Bretonne states that a telegraphic dispatch reached Brest on the 6th, with orders for the ships Pandora, Husard, Fabert, Alerte, and two others, to hold themselves in readiness to proceed to sea. Their destination was supposed to be La Plata. M. LEON FAUCHER, at a dinner lately given to him by his constituents at Chalons, strongly insisted on the necessity of revising the Constitution, and urged them to address petitions to that effect to the National Assembly. M. VICTOR, HUGO, after a rather severe indisposi tion, caused by the fatigue of the late Peace Con gress at Paris, took his departure yesterday for the country, to pass there his period of convalescence. General RAUDON, who is regarded as the probable successor of General ROSTOLAN as commander-in chief of the expeditionary army at Rome, is at present at the head of the 3d military division. General OUDINOT has arrived in Paris. M. TRIERS, who arrived in Paris on Saturday from Dieppe, left the same day (says the Dix Decernbre) fur the Chateau de Franconville, belonging to the Duchess DE MAssA, near Champlatreux, in the department of the Seine-et-Oise. M. LCEVE Vlumans has been appointed consul at Quito. The following absurd paragraph has made its ap pearance r — with the The F in some of Opera a e j is ou a r ll n a a s ls ti : approach ing rehearsal of a new opera, in five acts, to be sup ported by all the principal singers of the establish ment, and Madame Viardot in the principal part. The music is by the Hungarian General Georgey, and he is about to proceed to Paris to superintend its production, the hero being the renowned Mathias Coroni." Supposing this ridiculous report to have been true, we should have surely recommended the Parisians to give the Hungarian traitor the only reception to which he is entitled. For some time at least, how ever, there is not much likelihood that ARTHUR GEORGEY will dare to lift his ignoble head from the obscurity in which he is now enveloped in Styria. The following will be read by all admirers of real genius with profound satisfaction : " The statue of Monge was inaugurated at Beaune last week, with great ceremony. All the military and civil authorities of the town and neighbourhood, the members of the law courts, the pupils of the different school?, formed in grand proceesion, headed by the band of de garrison, and proceeded amidst the plaudits of an im mense crowd of spectators to the Place d'Armes, which ' is henceforth to be called Place Monge. A platform had been erected near the statue on which were several female descendants of the great geometrician. The house in which Monge was born was decorated with his bust crowned with flowers, and surrounded by four tricolor flags, bearing the inscriptions, Geenietrie De scriptive, Ecole Polytechnique, lastitut_du Caire, Fonts des Canons.' The whole cortege saluted the house as it defiled before it, the soldiers presenting arms, and the civilians taking off their hats. Several upprcpriate speeches were delivered at the foot of the statue, which is in breeze, and represents Monge standing ell ct giving a lesson in geernetry. The proceedings of the day were terminated by a banquet given to M. Rude, who made the statue, and at which General Marey-Monee de livered a very animated speech, thanking his fellow citizens with great warieth and feeling for this expres sion of their admiration of his relative." The harvest promises fairly, but the vintage seems to be somewhat inferior. Mdlle. RACHEL, the great tragic actress appeared at the Frangais on Saturday in Phoedre.

The POPE was to leave Gaeta :on the sth instant, purpcsing to attend a gram] religious ceremony at Naples on the Bth, and subsequently he will take up his residence:in the royal palace of Purtici. His liom- NESS'S departure is positively announced in the Statuto of Florence. General RosTOLAN has issued a proclamation, prohibiting all public meetings, and calling on the agents of the public force to take measures to pre vent them. The Tuscan illonitehr asserts that this decree has teen issued because the Romans intended to make a demonstration in favour of the general and the French, in opposition to the three Cardinals. The Swiss Guard has been re-established, and is stationed at the Vatican. On the refusal of the Ministry of War by Prince GABRIELLI, Gaete named the Prince ORSINI for the post. The following is important, namely that—lt is said that the commission is to be changed. General Ros- TOLAN says that in two weeks everything will be settled. -- iheFinance Minister at Turin was very popular on the 6•.11 in the Chamber of Deputies.

An extraordinary Gazette of Corfu, dated the 30th ult., contains particulars of a serious outbreak at Cephalonia. Although tranquillity had been ulti mately restored, it was found necessary t o proc l a i m martial law. Full details are given in a letter, dated the 30th, from Mr. IL G. TAT ARD, the Lord High Commissioner, to his Highness S p . Focca. STEFANO, President of the .Senate of th e I s l an d s. A s ear l y as i the 19th ultimo t was known that preparations were making for an out b reak by such men as the notorious VLAcco, the brothers GEOR GIO, PIERATO, FOCCA, and PAPA GREGORIO NODARO. On the Mb, on the road towards Scala, a reinforcement for the police picket was fired on by the rioters—a sergeant being wounded and a constable killed. On the 27th all communication with Ar gostoli was cut off, and the police being driven out of Scala were compelled to take refuge in a Guarda Costa boat. One of the most respected citizens, named ZANNATO, was burnt alive in his house with two of Ins servants. Other buildings were either destroyed or threatened by the people of Leo, and the Contadini movement rapidly increased. In the end, as we have before stated, through the energetic conduct of his Excellency Mr. WARD, the Lord High Commissioner, and through the proclamation of martial law, quietude was re-established. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO TIMES. There was a steady demand for Cotton at Liverpool 3eiterday. The sales were estimated at 5 000 bales, in cluding 4,000 American; 150 Penmen and Maranham at 5-id. to 511 ;80 Egyptian at 6id. to 7d.; and 300 Surat at 41. to 4? 2 -'d. per lb.--RailAvy Shares were rather firmer. The arrivals are to day of no moment, and we are awaiting intelligence of the American steamer. The following is a brief history of the facts in an in teresting d. cision recently made by Judges Ware and Whitman, in relation to an insurance on property destroyed in the fire on Long Wharf, Poniard, United States, is January, 1839: It appears, by the statement furnished, that a quantity of dour, stored upon the wharf, was insured at the Ocean office by the month. During the existence of the policy, the owner sold 100 barrels of flour of the same brand, gave a bill, and received pay for it; but no delivery of any part of the flour was made, other than by the delivery of the bill and receipt of payment; and the purchase r did not know where the flour was stored, it being under stoo I between the parties that the purchaser could have the flour when he called for it. The owner also stated to the purchaser that the flour was insured, and ha could have it when he wanted it. Some days after the sale, and before the delivery of any part of tine• flour, the fire took place, which destroy ed the whole quantity stored, embracing several hundred barrels. The owner having presented his claim for insurance, the under-writers de clined to pay for 100 barrels, alleged to have been sold, on the ground of charge of interest. In the mer.ntime the purchaser demanded his 100 barrels pursuant to the terms of sale, which was procured and delivered. The question now arose as to the liability of the in surers, and was submitted to Judges Whitman and Ware, who, after hearing the parties and their testimony, de cided that the transaction between the owner and pur chaser did noticonstitute a delivery of any specific quan tity of flour, but only a delivery of a certain quantity of the same brand, which might have been taken from any other place. There having, therefore, been no actual delivery of the specific articles insured, the interest therein had not been transferred, and the office was liable for the loss. We do not give the above as being precisely the law of England, though it is a guide for mercantile men. On 'Change here the attendance is now getting larger, and arrangements are making for the autumn trade. In the Stock Market the settlement of the English Account is in progress, and the " continuation" amounts to about 4 per cent., Consols having been 93 to 94, and!: being for October • the 17th, the new settling day, 92/ to 4. The New Three-and-a. Quarter per Cents. have been 934 to 94. Exchequer-bills have been 2s. lower, owing to the demand for money to settle the account, as well as to the increased employment for surplus cash in mercantile circles. The aspect of poli tical affairs is still deemed rather encouraging by the Balls, anti they look also to the dividend payments as being likely to assist them. Consols are now 941. In the Foreign Market . the transactions have been at about previous rates. Spanish Three per Cents., however, dropped to 34+, and have rallied since to 341. The Five per Cents. have been 171 to 18, and the Pas sive, 31. There is some disappointment felt at the announcement that the Spanish tariff will not even now come into operation in the form agreed to by the Cortes, and sanctioned by the Queen, but that to truckle to the Catalonian manufac turers, who, perhaps, have made bribery available as went!, serious modifications are intended in the duties upon some articles of considerable importance, especially to the English manufacturers. Portuguese Bonds are nominally 28/ to 291. Brazilian Small have been 851. Danish 013 Stock has been at par. Mexican Bonds have been 27i to 4. The Committee of Boedhelders have published a notice which was, perhaps, scarcely needed, and reflects unduly upon their envoy, Mr. Ro bertson, unless, indeed, he has really exceeded his instructions. Mr. Robertson, it is said, was not authorised to conclude any definitive arrangement; it will be left to the bondholders to ratify it. This, we should imagine, every ono would perfectly understand, and if the plan of arrangement has Leen received a meet ing should at once be called to see if it meets general approbation. Some members of the committee, and many of the beudholders, may be absent from town, but delay is dangerous, and those to whom it is an object have had too much of that already to brook it very pa tiently; hence the complaints made, and the necessity for an early explanation as to whether any formal proposals have been received. Dutch Two and a Half per Cents. have been 541. Railway Shares have be e n r a th er h eavy aga i n, b ut without material changes. Eastern Counties have ad winced a little, Caledonian have declined, Great Western are a shade better, and North-Western and South- Eastern scarcely so good. Midland about the same, and York and North-Midland tending upwards. The foreign lines are dull. ONE O'OCalC. 'Ln KIN Pitt , r:s OF , RITIFM vUNDSI rinci, s. 3 per Cent.

Accounts from Madrid are to the sth instant. General NARVAEZ bad reached Ciudad Real on his road towards Puerto Llano. The Moors had made new attacks on Melilla from the 15th to the 21st of August, and among them were several of the EMPEROR'S soldiers—a fact, says the Herald°, which calls for the serious attention of the Government. The Three per Cents. were done at 26 15-16 for cash; the Four per Cents. at 114; the Five per Cents. at 11i for paper; the Debt without Interest at 3 15-16 ; and the Coupons at 64 for cash. GERMANY AND THE NORTHERN STATES AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY. Comorn has refused to surrender, and preparations are making to besiege it with 60,000 men, under NUGENT and GRAB% KLAPKA had previously stocked the fortress with fuel to last out the winter. The conditions required by the garrison were— " I. A complete amnesty in Hungary. " 2. The garrison to retain their arms, with permission to retiro into some neighbouring country. " 3. An independent Ministry for Hungary." HAYNAU, on the contrary, insisted that the sur render should be unconditional. Peter wardein in like manner still holds out. Thank GOD, there is every probability that the illustrious KOiSUTII is i n sa f e ty w ith hi s companions. After his arrival at Widdin, he and his associates were received by the Paella, VON ADA KALESI, some way below Orsova, where they embarked in a vessel prepared for them, which was fully equipped, and capable of holding forty men ; in it they escaped down the Danube, following the course of that stream. The barque carried the Turkish flag. So that in all probability the fugitives are by this time in Constantinople, and out of the reach of the Austrian gaoler and the Austrian knout. The EMPEROR is expected at Trieste on the 18th instant. It is stated that the POPE, the King of NAPLES, and the Hereditary Prince of TUSCANY will be present at the same time in Trieste, to meet the EMPEROR. In case the POPE is prevented from going himself, he will delegate two Cardinals to have the first conference with Prince SCIIWARTZENBERG on the affairs of the Church. PR USIA. Accounts from Berlin are to the 7th instant. In consequence of the Oldenburg Chamber having rejected the Aliniaerid proposition for the adhesion of that state to the Tripp: Alliance, the GRAND DUIZE, or rather the Hereditary Prince, acting in his father's name, has dissolved the Chamber. The Anhalt Plenipotentiary has arrived, and taken his seat a 3 member of the " Council of Administra- tion," which is compcsed of the following eighteen States, who have finally ratified : Prussia, Hsu ov, r Saxony „ Zischow. Baden Meysenberg. Nassau „ Vollpracht. Weimar . Mecklenburg -Schwerin „ Stever. Strelia Anhalt „Zischow. Bremen „ Schmidt. Hamburgh Brunswick „ Liebe. Homburg Hesse-Darmstadt „ Lapel, Two Reus ,, Seebeck. Two Schwartzbourg TURKEY. Letters from Constantinople, dated the 25th inst., state that the feeling in that city was that of positive incredulity as to the statements just received of the defeat of the Hungarians. By the last Levant mail it appears that the Russian and Austrian Ambassadors at Constantinople have demanded the extradition of the Hungarians who have taken refuge on the Turkish territory. Turkey, it was thought, would make every effbrt not to yield to this demand. THE COUNTESS DE LANDSFELDT (LOLA. MONTES.) —Such was the anxiety manifested by this celebrates personage to be present at Marlborough-street on the day appointed for further examination into the charge preferred against her; that at an expense of about 500/. she hired a fast steam-ship expressly to bring her frcm Naples to England. Mrs. Heald is now suffering from indisposition in consequence of the great fatigue caused by her journey. WEST INDIA PINEAPPLES.—The schooner Ace of Trumps, George David, master, 41 days from Nassau, New Providence, bound for London, has arrived at Ply mouth with a cargo of turtles, pineapples, lignnm conch shells, and some tons of preserved pines, consigned to Messrs. Keeling and Hunt, of London. The schooner was compelled to put into Plymouth, being short of pro visions and water. The greater part of the turtles have been thrown overboard, and ftc remainder arein a dying state. The pineapples are decaying, and a large quan tity has been cast into the sea during the voyage. Self-respect is worth all the fame in the world. Cock's Jou/ nod. SYMPATHY WITH HUNGARY (FROM OUR OWN REPORTER NORWICH, MONDAY EVENING.—A large, influential, and enthusiastic meeting was held this evening to evince deep sympathy in the Hungarian cause, and to express their desire to see the independence of that kingdom re cognized by the Government of Great Britain, and es tablished on such a basis as shall enable its industrious and intellectual people to clfv,lope the great natural re sources of that fertile and fine country, and to consolidate the political, religious, and civil freedom of a noble nation. A requisition was got up and signed by more than ICO of the most respectable citizens of Noreich, and presented to the Mayor, asking him to call a common ►:all of the citizens of Norwich, to take the above named subject into consideration. Some time bafore the hour appointed, haif•psst seven o'clock, this splendid hall, capable of holding 2,000 per sons, was crowdal by Reformers of every degree, Con servatives, Radicals, &c , all uniting in ono common cause. The chair was taken by Anthony Hudson, Esq. The deputation from the Central Hungarian Committee consisted of Lord Dudley Stu Irt, M.P., H. Birkbeck, Esq., and Was. B. Donne, Among those present we also observed Colonel Money, 11. Bright well, Esq , J. Sultzer, Esq., &c. After several resolutions had been carried by acclama tion, the meeting separated with much enthusiasm. FISTULA INFIRMARY. (THIS DAY.) A special meeting of the governors of this institution was held this day at one o'clock, at the London Tavern; the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor in the chair. The object of the meeting was to consider the pro priety of altering the name of the hospital from its pre sen t name to that of the " St. Andrew's Hospital." Mr. Bond Cabbell having made the institution a munificent gift of land in the parish of St. Andrew's, Holborn, for the erection of a new building, which is estimated at the value of 3,0001. or 4,0001., one of the coLditions of the grant was, that the institution should henceforth be called " The St. Andrew's Hospital for the cure of diseases of the lower intestines." Some discussion took place as to whether the name of the hospital should be alttred or no: before the new building was erected. Mr. AIASTERMAN intimated, on the part of Mr. Bond Cabbell, that it was not his wish to have the name altered until the building was finished. When the treasurer had 2,0001. in hand for its erection, the land should be conveyed to the institution. The proposition and its conditions were accepted. A cordial vote of thanks to Mr. Bond Cabbell having been passed for his munificent gift, and also to the Lord Mayor for presiding, the meeting separated. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. WITHAM, for the Assistant-Judge.) The September general sessions were commenced this morning at the Sessions-house, Clerkenwell-green, Mr. Witham presiding in the absence of the Assistant- Judge. The calendar is comparatively light, and there are but seventy prisoners for trial. IVilliam Flottery and William Jones, both sixteen years of age, and distinguished from the general mass of youths indicted here for picking pockets, by being described in the calendar as able to read and write, were convicted of attempting to steal a pocket handker chief from the person of James Pidgeon, on the pier of the halfpenny steam-boats, at Ivy Bridge-lane, Adelphi. It appeared that the prisoners, as well as the prosecutor, were passengers by the boat from London-bridge pier, and the boys. were both seen trying Mr. Pidgeon's pocket, and one of them drew out the handerchief and give it to the other, who immediately concealed it be. tween his legs. Flottery, however, now denied that he had any participation in the theft, and protested that he had never committed a dishonest act in his li"e. Jones said it was his first offcm..e. He did not put his hand into the pocket, but the handkerchief %vas hanging out. lie prayed hard for a lenient sentence. Neither of the prisoners was known to the officers of the House of Correction or of the court, and it did not appear that they were old cff,ndere. The CHAIRMAN sentenced them to be imprisoned each six months and kept to hard labour. 'They seemed quite astounded at the sentence, and wept bitterly, Fluttery continuing to protest his inno cence until he was removed from the dock. The other cases tried this morning were of a very trivial character. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—I read in your inestimable paper of last even ing the extraordinary application made to the Lord Mayor respecting the notorious Wood, and the ap prehension entertained lest he should be liberated ia.ough bribery. Rest assured he is in safe hands, not at Boulogne but Amiens, the chef- lieu of the Depart partment where the offence was committed. The Procureur de la R6publique will we that justice is done; and if such individuals as the Duke de Praslin could not escape, there i 3 no chance for the indivi dual in question. I am, Sir, yours, A LIMB OF THE LAW.

THE NEW BELGIAN PROCESS FOR DRESSING FLAX.—At the monthly meeting of the Royal Flax So ciety, in Belfast, some conversation ensued upon the system of M. de Changy, of Brussels, as illustrated by samples lately shown by that gentleman, at the Royal Exhibition in the Linen Hall. Ho states his method to be independent of steeping in water, and that the rotting of the flax can be thoroughly accomplished in a few hours, tho means employed being partly chemical and partly mechanical. The committee thought it very de sirable that his process should be fully investigated, and to this end samples of Irish flax, in straw and in fibre, had been furnished him by the society, and by Messrs. James Boomer and Co., and S. K. Mullholland and finds, to be operated upon and returned.—Northern Whig. CIIOLERA IN WEDNESIMAY, ETAPPORD. stitr.E.--:From p r i va t e corres p on d ence th a t we hav e re ceived, it would appear that the cholera is raging . here dreadf u ll y . O ur c ,, rrespon clent says, "The cholera is raging at Wednpsbury awfully; in one dirty square all the inhabitants (I believe between thirty and forty) have fell victims to the disease. They are now talking of camps for the people of the worst localities. It is our wake, but the Beard of Health have issued a bill re questing there may be no crowds, gluttony, or intoxica tion. All locks very dull here, and what will be the end of it God only knows. In our manufactory we have had two deaths, one of our men, and a youth about nineteen." COAL DUTIES IN FEANCE.—We are enabled to state on authority, that the attention of the French Go vernment has been authoritatively called to the unfair ness of the r a t es o f d uty on the import of coal from foreign countries into France, with a view to the removal of the injurio us preference which is at present accorded to Belgium coal. No answer has yet been received, but the subject is one which cannot bo allowed to skep— ev en were the coal trade of Newcastle twenty times as soporific as it proverbially is.— Gutes•head OL4rver.
