After the gratifying intelligence recorded yester day as to the progress of the war in Hungary, we cannot but feel assured that the meeting which is announced to take place on Monday, at the Riding Academy in Marylebone, will be equally enthusiastic with the first demonstration in the city of London. Through the advertisement it will already have been observed that the chair will be taken by the Noble Lord the President of the Polish Association. Let it be borne in recollection by those who attend on Monday at the rendezvous in Albany-street, that nothing of any importance is wanting to stimulate the enthusiastic sympathy of the English multitude in the cause of the Hungarians. The Government has de elared itself opposed to the Russian intervention—that expression of official regard for the interests of the Magyars having been articulated in the memorable speech delivered exactly a week since in the House of Commons by the Lord Viscount PALMERSTON. Not only has the Foreign Secretary at last set at defiance the refrigerating influence of his colleagues, and pro nounced the feelings of his manly heart and the con victions of his statesmanlike intellect, without any ambiguity or reservation—but a gradual approxima. tion to the advocacy of the Hungarian cause is per ceptible in those among our contemporaries who until very recently have been the most violent in their opposition to KOSSUTH and his countrymen. Simul taneously with this rapid and visible spread of sym pathy throughout the people of the United Kingdom, arrives the intelligence of the successive victories gained by BEM and his lieutenants. Added to the prestige of the last glorious campaign against Austria, is the prestige of the triumphs which have halo'd the Magyar banner from the commencement of the new campaign against the combined forces of Austria and Russia. While, moreover, the patriot soldiers of Hungary are encouraged by their reiterated successes, their imperial antagonists are proportionately dispirited by their interminable re verses. We have seen how their ablest generals one after another have been worsted by the Polish and Maygar officers—especially by BEM, by GEORGET, and by DEMBINSKI. We have seen WINDISCH• GRATE degraded from the command of the German soldiers, with his marshal's baton virtually broken over his head. We have seen WELDER disgraced almost in the midst of his braggadocios. We have seen HA YNAU superseded by Hesse, though not before his cruelties had rendered him in famous and his weakness contemptible. We have seen the redoubtable and "highly imagin - ELLACHICH thrice, with his Croatian irregulars, put entirely hors dc combat, beaten in pitched battle, and driven before the Magyars as a fugitive. While Southern Hungary has been partially cleared from the domi nation of the invading barbarians by BEM, the other division of the army of liberation has directed the force of the great race of freemen towards the north, to the effectual discomfiture of all the machinations of the allied despots. The ring with which the "insurreetiou" was to have been encircled and grasped to its exti nc ti on h as b een broken asunder in two different directions by the glorious brand of Hungarian nationality. JELLACHICH has been crushed in one quarter PASKEWITCH has been all b u t rou t e d in another. I,Yith a striking impartiality, the counsels o f K os . STITH have directed the vengeance of his people, now against the Austrians, now against the Russians, now against the united legions of the coalition. Every where, withott , emcei,ton, the arms of the Magyars have _hitherto been triumphant. On the Franz Canal, on the Theis, on the Danube, the " rebels" have carried off the palm of victory. And the nation which was to have been overrun from one extremity to the other by the hordes of Russia and the warriors of Germany, has become already the grave of hundreds of those vain-glorious mercenaries. Added to the delirium of the marsh fever, and the ravages of the cholera—the heroic assault of the Hungarians and the privations arising from an in sufficiency of provisions have already devastated, are ;ME strig9 LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING-, JULY 28, MO. derstanding that is essential to the favourable termination of the undertaking. The entertain ment to the Irish Members,' if productive of such happy results, will not be the least remark able in the annals of civic hospitality. And the pre cedent established by Sir JAMES DUKE, will, we trust, long be followed by his successors in office, and lead to the feelings of mutual kindliness and esteem between the English and the Irish people. The com pliment paid to the LORD MAYOR elect of the city of Dublin was well-merited, and we have no doubt that the Corporation of the city of London will find in him a zealous and powerful coadjutor in carrying out their benevolent intentions towards Ireland. now devastating, and almost decimating, the vast armies which have dared to attempt the subjugation of four teen millions of one of the bravest races of Christen dom. The first impetus of the second campaign has been given in favour of Hungary. A panic has risen in one or two provinces. The Cabinet of Vienna is for the time being paralysed, the Cama rilla at Olmiltz is filled with terror, and the Autocrat lof all the Russias observei with astonishment the severe reception given to those preliminary forces to whose warlike achievements he had looked forward as to the encouragement of the whole expe dition. " Vengeance is mine saith the Lord," and that tremendous announcement is being again verified by the inclemencies of the season, inclemencies which bring the very elements themselves into the assistance of the Hungarians. Before long the time of the year will have returned in which war is rendered impossible to foreigners among the morasses and mountain fastnesses of the fatherland of the heroic Magyars. When that period shall have arrived, when the campaign of 1849 shall have been brought to a termination, the Government of KOSSUTH will be enabled to consolidate all that has been hitherto accomplished, and to prepare with increased vigour for the renewal of hos tilities. By that time the glad tidings of England's sympathy for the cause of the heroic Magyars will have reached the cabinet of KOSSUTH and the head-quarters of BEM, and will have strung anew the nerves of a people already strong in the sublime attitude of a race defending its nationality. So powerful is the position of the Hungarian Commander-in-Chief, even at the present moment, in Southern Hungary, that it is feared he may advande towards northern Italy, raise the siege of Venice, carry a diversion of arms towards RADETZKY, and by so doing enable the Hungarians, under the flag of the conqueror of Novara, to break from their present surveillance, and, while weakening the power of Austria south of the Carpathians, strengthen the force of Hungary . south of the Danube. Suc h being the situa.ti n o BEM even. iu July, it is anything but improbable that he may dispatch a sufficient portion of his army to take possession of Fiume, thereby giving Hungary a port in the Mediterranean. In deed, Fiume is so naturally belonging to the Magyars, and it 3 capture by BEM appears to us a matter of such exceeding likelihood, that we purpose, when the subscription for the hussars at Folk stone shall have reached an amount sufficient to cover the necessary expenses to send them to join the Hungarian forces through Fiume. Should that seaport by some adverse circumstances not fall into the hands of the Hungarians, the only safe direction by which the hussars from England could reach their native land would be Turkey. At present, however, we look with confidence to the capture of Fiume. In another column will be found a brief but striking report of the proceedings which took place on Thursday, on the occasion of the annual meeting of the proprietors of the Catholic Law and General Life Assurance Company, at the company's offices, 8, New Coventry-street, Lei cester-square. It will there be observed that the results of the present management hare been altogether of ' the most highly satis factory character. Four points in regard to the flourishing state of the Asoociation were parti cularized by the secretary, Mr. Nona's, in his report to the shareholders; and, certainly, con sidering that not one single policy has lapsed by death during the year last pait—that thrice the business has been done during the last as compared with the preceding quarter that through the services of Mr. ARCHER as actuary the company will henceforth be enabled to assure diseased as well as healthy lives, and that arrange ments have been entered into for extending the business of the association to the continent—we are by no means surprised to find it recorded by the re porter that on the sep aration of the meeting the shareholders appeared highly delighted. One other circumstance should be borne in recollection in refe rence to the Catholic Law and General Life Assu rance Company, namely, that while business through out the country has suffered during the past twelve months an unusual depression, there has been no falling off in the number of assurances over the whole year. The proprietors are, for all these reasons, fully justified in their self-gratulations. All things considered, we cannot but regard the position of a affairs and the course of events both in this country and in Hungary as highly en couraging to the sympathy which is experienced throughout all classes of Englishmen. On Monday evening, therefore, we hope to see another of those glorious demonstrations which were inaugurated last Monday at the London Tavern—demonstrations which will nerve the arms and sharpen the swords of the Magyars now fighting for constitutional liberty. We are the more sanguine as to the meet ing at Marylebone emulating the magnitude and enthusiasm of the meeting in the city of London, from the circumstance of our understanding that on Monday Lord BEAUMONT and no less than twenty Members of Parliament will he in attendance. The splendid hospitality of the city of London was never more auspiciously bestowed than on Wednesday evening. Sir JAMES DUKE had previously distin guished his mayoralty by a series of magnificent entertainments which had been seldom equalled, never surpassed, by any former chief magistrate. Ministers and their supporters, the members and friends of the former Government, the Protectionist party, the House of Lords, the House of Commons, the Royal S ociety, distinguished writers on every subject, the scientific and literar y taler 4 of the country, have all been feted and banqtietted in turn. No .• • civic liberality, and showing how intimat el y the Corporation of the British metropolis was con nected with the great interests of the country. No person who could put forward a reasonable claim to such an honour was forgotten. But there was a class who had never previously been entertained as a body, although, of course, many had individually visited the Mansion House. The charm has, however, been dissolved, and the closing banquet of the gorgeous series of entertainments given by the LORD MAYOR, and, we are happy to add, the unanimously-elected Member for the city of London, was announced to be in honour of the representatives of Ireland. A more auspicious occasion could not have been selected. Our Most Gracious SOVEREIGN was about to make her first visit to her Irish dominions, to go among the warm-hearted and loyal inhabitants of the sister kingdom, to judge for herself of the condition and capabilities of that magnificent but much ne glected land. Nearly thirty years had elapsed since the Irish soil was trodden by the footsteps of its monarch. Grievous afflictions, almost unprece dented sufferings have been endured during the interval, and yet the Irish heart still throbs with affectionate loyalty and devotion to its SO VEREIGN, and gathers favourable auguries from the anxiously desired and long anticipated visit, a visit which will more firmly cement the bonds by which the British Islands are, and we trust for ever will be, united. The Corporation of London, too, have announced their intention of investing capital in Ireland, of ac quiring additional estates in that country. They are influenced by no base or sordid motives in arriving at this determination. It is not because Ireland affords a profitable field for the employment of capital, or because large returns may he reasonably antici pated for the amount employed in the speculation. It is not to make a new plantation, or to banish the former occupants, or religion from the soil. They are about to make a great ex periment for the benefit of the sister kingdom ; their object is to promote her welfare and prosperity, to provide remunerative employment for those who are both able and willing to work, to develop the natural capabilities of the country, and to show how much may be effected by the judicious application of capital within reasonable and prudent limits. The example will, we doubt not, be extensively followed. When steady, sensible men of business, persons who exhibit a steady caution in every undertaking that affords the best guarantees for future success, are found entering on such an enterprise, others will speedily follow in the track ; the first great want of the nation will be supplied ; British capital will flow in to keep the Irish industry in full employ ment. The results will be highly beneficial to all parties concerned. Ireland will cease to be a re proach and stigma upon the empire—a constant drain on the national resoures—a claimant upon the public and private charities of her more fortunate sister ; she will become the right arm of England, a source of strength and power. The inhabitants of both countries will become a happy and united people— the differences of country, of race, and of religion will be forgotten—all will labour for the general good, and cordially co-operate for the glory and welfare of their country, and the connexion, sustained by mutual goodwill and a common interest, will be strengthened and perpetuated. It was under such circumstances, and as an evidence of the feelings of the Corporation towards Ireland, that the LORD MAYOR invited the chosen representatives of that country to assemble in the Mansion House, and witness the cordiality with which the great toast of the evening, " Prosperity to Ireland," would be received by the citizens of London. Their efforts were intended to errata and foster that "prosperity," to testify the deep sympathy they entertain foe the ufferings of the people, and their anxious desire to Lid and assist them in the dark hour of their difficulty and affliction. And it Was received in the like spirit; there is not one of that numerous assemblage who will not duly appreciate the conduct of the LORD MAYOR and Corporation of the city of London. Am bassadors will go to every county and town, to every constituency in Ireland, qualified to explain the na ture and objects of the views and wishes of the civic body. Any erroneous impressions that may have been conceived will thus be dispelled, and a true un derstanding will be arrived at on every side—an un. The Oesterreichische Correspondent gives a few scanty and unauthenticated details of the BAN'S defeat. The said paper asserts that the BAN of Croatia learned, on the 10th instant, that vast bodies of troops had been forced down upon him. He determined to retreat to the table-land of Tittel and to act simply on the defensive. This intention was kept so secret that the BAN'S troops had not the silightest idea of what was to take place. At six in the evening of the 15th they began their march, but two of the enemy's officers, who were captured on the 14th instant, confessed that the BAN'S intention was already known in the Hungarian camp. On reaching Hegyes, where the BAN expected to meet his enemies, all was found to be quiet, and it was supposed the Hungarians had fled, when on a sudden some signal rockets were observed to ascend. The very next moment the BAN'S front and flank were assailed by a tremendous discharge of grape and canister from the hidden batteries of the Hungarians. A charge was attempted, but all was in vain, and t he BAN'S army was compelled to retreat to Verbash, and thence to Kish-Ker. Here the exhausted troops, believing that the pursuit would not be continued, attempted to obtain food and rest, but the Hungarian forces appeared again and drove them across the Roman entrenchments to Kat,h, where the BAN'S rear-guard arrived at ten o'clock A.M having been thirty one hours on their legs, ten of which had been passed in hard fighting. The Imperialists themselves allow that they have been completely outgeneralled by GEORGEY. PAS REWITCII is totally ignorant of even the direction which GEORGEY and his 44,000 men took after driv ing the Russians from Waitzen. Rest ... Increase ... Public Deposits ... Decrease ...

It is strongly urged that and a half from shore. vessels proceeding from ports in the United Kingdom that have been notified as infected by the Spanish Con suls to their Government, and bound for Cadiz or Ma laga, should call at Vigo, and there comply with the pre scribed quarantine, in order to prevent the expense and great loss of time consequent on a voyage to Port Mahon. One circumstance affords a little consolation, viz., that the treatment of cholera is now better understood, and the disease being much guarded against loses half its terrors. Whether extreme precaution would not disarm it of nearly all its virulence time will determine, and whether the disease is contagious is yet an unsolved, though a very important, problem for the shipping interest. The colony of Liberia is, in many points of view, of particular interest to the trader as well as the philan thropist. The opening of an extended commerce with the interior of Africa is highly probable, in that direc tion, before the lapse of many years, and the hie ral policy of the British Government in recognizing and encouraging the new state, has already invested it with importance, and imparted to its inhabitants a murked degree of energy. Advices dated the 18th of May de scribe an expedition undertaken against the Spanish slavers at Trade Town and New Casters. We are told that the fullest success crowned the undertaking. The slavers were completely routed, and their establishments at both places destroyed. The slaver at New Casters had raised the whole country in his defence, and had supplied the natives liberally with munitions of war, and when the Liberian expedition attempted to land, he led on in person the natives, by thousands, to oppose a lauding. A few bombs from the French steamer kept them at bay, and, under cover of her fire, the troops pushed boldly ashore and formed on the beach. The Spaniard did not show himself afterwards, but the natives, concealing themselves behind rocks, trees, and bushes, kept up a continual and annoying fire for two days. As soon as the line of march was taken up for the barracoon, the slaver has tened to the factory, and applied a torch. When the Liberians arrived there the house was a heap of ashes. It was built of mud, so thick and well dried, that it would have resisted a six pound shot. It was three feet thick, twelve feet high, and beautifully whitewashed, and, enclosing a perfectly level and well-cleaned area of about two and a halt acres of land, presented a beautiful sight in the deep green wilderness, in the bosom of which it was situated. Six or seven men were killed of the natives, the rest taking to their heels. Not a man was killed or seriously wounded among the Liberians. No resistance was offered at Trade Town. The slaver there had heard of the fate of his compatriot below, and as the men marched up to his factory he advanced to meet them, suing for mercy in the humblest attitude. The amount Of property destroyed by this expedition was not known ' but it is said to have been large. The troops brought back with them two Spaniards and thirty or forty slaves. Previous to setting out upon the expe dition, the forces assembled in the Methodist church in Monrovia, and there united in prayer to God that he would prosper their undertaking. Still, even just wars bring evils in their train, fur the Liberian Herald states— " The present scarcity and high prices of provisions, especially of breadstuffs, are but a forerunner of what will be experienced ere the season has passed over. The exoedition from sehiele could not be controlled, ,J tune wnon , eeee burning off and preparing our lands for planting. The natives had been some time kept in excitement, awaiting the war, and neglected their farms. They are already beginning to pour in upon us, to divide, by theft or otherwise, the little stock of provisions which we have. Already bacon. middling, is up to 25 cents.; flour 13 dolls. and 14 dolls. the barrel; and rice 2 dolls. and 2 dolls. 50 cents, a bushel. When all these things are taken into account we shall find that breaking up those slavers has cost us from seven to ten thousand dollars— an enormous sum for young Liberia. We do not repine. We had rather suffer these inconveniences multiplied ten fold than permit so gross violation of our laws, so great an outrage of humanity, within our territory. It is to be feared we shall have again to take up the cudgel, and use it vigorously, beth to the windward and leeward. The schooner Lark, presented by the Queen of Eng land to the Republic of Liberia, arrived at Monrovia on the 16th of May." Our accounts from the manufacturing districts state that there was rather a duller market for goods at Man chester, but at Halifax there was still a good business doing. At Nottingham many hands continued idle upon " strike," and at Leeds business was steady and prices were firm. The exports of the precious metals from London during the week, to Thursday last, were as follow: Gold coin to Belgium, 1,500 ounces; Silver coin to Antwerp, 2,010 ounces, and to Dunkirk, 43,000 ounces. Silver bars to Copenhagen and Peters burgh 140,003 ounces, and to Belgium 20,000 ounces. There is an exceedingly quiet market again for Public Securities, and prices are rather heavy.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. The Patrie has the following announcement : " We have received a letter From Turin which leads us to believe that Piedmont is not yet reduced to the necessity of submitting to the ultimatum of Austria. In formation, in which we have full confidence, apprises us that on the 22d of this month the Cabinet of Turin pre sented a counter-project to the Austrian negotiator, proposing some modifications to the ultimatum. The manner in which M. Bruck received that counter-project leads us to believe that the Cabinet of Vienna will not show itself more exacting. Matters remain in that state." The same journal states that the Minister of Fi nance has declared that he will not require a loan for the present, as Jae has sufficient means to provide for the year 1850. M. LAMARTIIVE, who was elected by the De partment of the Soane et Loire, and also by the De partment of the Loiret, has chosen to sit for the latter. The College of Soane et Loire is convoked for the 19th of August to :fill up the vacancy thus occasioned, and the electoral College of the Cote d'Or is con voked for the same day, to elect a representative in the room of M. JAMES DEMONTRAY, deceased. The first six articles of the law on the press were passed by the Legislative Assembly on Thursday. The editor of the R'epublicaine de la Dordogne has been sentenced to six months' imprisonment and a fine of I,ooof. for publishing a protest against the Roman expedition. Perhaps the public officer who ordered this prosecution may be able to state wherein the distinction consists between the " honest and moderate Republic," as thus administered, and a despotic tyranny ; the difference if any, we conceive, to be in favour of the latter, inasmuch as it does not add hypocrisy to its other crime. " Cossackism" seems progressing. The Siecle has the following in reply to the taunts of M. TRIERS, that the Government of the Republi cans of the vielle, which lasted from 24th February to the 10th December, 1848, had done nothing for France. " That Government," says the Siècle, " during nine months of struggle, of suffering, of difficulties ijumber y both foreign and domestic, in the civil war, did more for the credit, for the people, for the grandeur, and for the future well-being of France than did your two Monarchies during a space of 33 years in the midst of a profound peace. It gave us universal suffrage—that was a political improvement. It decreed the abolition of the penalty of death for political offences—that was a pledge of peace and conciliation. It decreed the abolition of slavery—these were moral improvements. It amelio rated the condition of schoolmasters—this was fur the advancement of intellectual improvement. It constituted the Bank of France, by uniting to this great body the scattered members of the provincial banks ; it created the discount banks—these were lor the improvement of public credit. It created the agricultural colonies of Algeria—this was for the benefit of the people. It created the councils of prud'hommes ; it encouraged the associations of work men—this was for the benefit of the labourers. It introduced postal reform ; it reduced the impost on salt; it endeavoured to raise an income-tax, which is , the true method of imposing proportional taxation, it carried a law for recruiting the army. These are what it did for the nation." The bank account shows continued influx of specie. The commercial features of the week do not appear favourable, but the credit to the Treasury has increased upwards of 9i millions. It is confirmed that there will be no loan at present.

It appears that the fort of Radstadt surrendered at discretion. The garriso❑ mutinied, arrested the commandant, and opened the gates to the Prussians. SCHLES WIG-HOLSTEIN. It was generally expected that the King of BA VARIA would protest against the conditions of the armistice and treaty concluded between Prussia and Denmark, and it was even asserted that the Government of Bavaria had combined with the Cabinet of Hanover to induce the Vicar of the Em pire to disavow them. The Weser Zeitung, how ever, in an article, dated Berlin, July 20, says that the Bavarian Government, through its ambassador at the Court of Berlin, Count LERCHENFELD, gave its assent beforehand to the basis upon which the armis tice is concluded, and is consequently bound to it ; that regret is expressed at Munich respecting the conditions of the armistice, but that the assent already given will be referred to, as precluding the possibility of an independent line of action. Accounts from Schleswig-Holstein state that the following persons were proposed to form the Provi sional Armistice Government of Schleswig :—For Prussia, ADODPHE VON MOLTKE (member of the late general Government) ; for Denmark, Baron KARL PLESSIN ; and for England, Baron VON FALLENBER G . The former has positively declined, and the second intends doing so; and in place of the l b a a t s t s e a r di t A o r l i r sa . t HOWotwnhesiconsidered dhc A eor ß ute D har et, probable, Secretary beha Prussia,teise wbi e of .wkaih t poo h: Bo tii esn ß i British thoroughly oq i EsruhoenusgAgt question, - nyh, acquaintedwil l, C )mmissioner in Schleswig. The Bavarian troops stationed in Schleswig have received orders to return to Bavaria, immediately after the official promulgation of the armistice, con cluded solely by Prussia, and without th e concur rence of the Central Power of Germany in the Duchies. The General in command, Prince EDWARD Vox SACHSEN ALTENEERG, has received orders to appear previously at Court. All the Prussians who were taken prisoners in the memorable engagement of the 17th have been sent back. AUSTRIA. The news of the defeat of JELLACHICU is fully con firmed, and it is whispered in Vienna, that acting on the old METTERNICH policy of " Divide et 'bumper'," the Austrian war-cffice, dreading his ambition, and aware of the yearnings of the Croatians after independ ence, left him purposely unsupported in order to get rid of him. The BAN has been driven into Syrmia, and has, it is said, now AV chance of escape. PRUSSIA. M. DE STEIN, the Coburg Plenipotentiary, signed on the 25th, at Berlin, the adhesion of his Govern ment to the triple alliance, and Bremen and Meinin gin will, it is expected, also accede to the treaty. Th e King of PRUSSIA issued a decree on the 24th, abolishing private and privileged courts of justice. SWITZERLAND. It is said that the Prussian Government has sent a menacing note to the Swiss Government, that, un less the I3adenese refugees, who, after their late defeat, retired into Switzerland, are expelled, Prussia will not respect the Swiss territory, but act accord ing to the necessities of the case. ITALY. The Statuto of Florence, of the 19th, contains some Linformation respecting GARIBALDI. On the 14th he arrived with his legion at Orvieto. On the evening of the 16th h occupied the heights of the Rocca and Bardano, and seemed to be approaching Orvieto again ; but a letter from Chinsi, of the 18th, announces his arrival with his army , at that place. A letter from Leg horn, of the 19th, states that GARIBALDI, at the head of 5,000 infantry, 500 cavalry, and two cannon, had left the vicinity of Orvieto, taking the direction of San Lorenzino. His troops were divided into several bodies ; the first passed by Chinsi, another by the Ponte Arrigo (nine miles from Radicofani), and a third by the mountains facing Cetona. The latter place, Sarteano, and Montepulciano were occupied by him, according to the last accounts. Austrian and Tuscan troops had been sent against him from Florence and Siena. A slight engagement bad taken place near Cetona between a party of GARIBALDI'S men and some Tuscan troops. It was believed to be his intention to gain the Maremme by the Mon tamiata. Active operations against Venice have almost ceased, as the Austrians find it impossible to do any damage to the city, as they have not the command of the sea. The result of all their cannoading has been to destroy a mill. They have 9,000 men laid up with fever caught in the lagoons, and the conva lescents from the lagoon fever, if not immediately re moved, suffer from continued relapses. Many of the Austrian regiments are disbanded. One of the Aus trian generals, Baron AUGUSTIN, has proposed firing grenades and red-hot shot against the city. Letters from Rome have been received to the 20th. Order (of the Warsaw species) reigns there ; that is to say, the reign of terror is at its height. M. DE COURCELLES had gone to Gaeta, and the Austrian General WIMFFBN had arrived in Rome. The Piedmontese Gazette of the 23d instant quotes a telegraphic dispatch from Genoa of the 22d, an nouncing that the French squadron, commanded by Vice-Admiral BAUDIN, had sailed for Gaeta to take the POPE on board, and conduct him to Civita Vecchia. _ _ _ The Courrier de iTiarseille publishes the following letter from Rome, dated the 16th : "In order to protect the neighbourhood of Rome, Umbria Orvietan, and the province called Patrimony of St. Peter, General Oudinot is placing garrisons in most of the towns and villages. Viterba their poi4'r —l there — isn NidBn t a ENl99Fattl, Vxercistd many persons, monks and landowners, to move to wards Civita Vecchia. These were Ruccini and Ma nucci, who received the Tuscan and Lombard refugees, and forwarded them to Rome. It was this which led to various sorties on the part of the besieged, who being warned in time, thus favoured the introduction of the reinforcements. General Morris received orders to go and re-establish order at Viterba. He entered without any opposition, and placed the town in a state of siege. All the Roman States are thus occupied; the Austrians hold the four legations—Bologna, Ferrara, Ravenna, and Ancona. The Neapolitans are at Frosinona, whence they restrain the province of Campagna. The Spaniards have come from Terracina to Velletri. There remained the country on the side of Tuscany, but it is at present under subjection, with the exception of some parts of the Appenines, where Garibaldi now is; he intends proceed ing to Venice, if it holds out still, and, if not, to Hun gary. The return of the Pope will soon take place; he will be accompanied by the King of Naples and the Grand Duke of Tuscany. It is asserted that the Queen of Spain is anxious to be present at this restoration and to furnish a guard to the Pepe. The Swiss cannot at present take service with his Holiness. It is Spain which is to furnish troops to Rome. That at least is the desire of Isabella II." THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA. (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY MORNING. The Royal Mail steam-ship Canada has, after the shortest passage on record, been telegraphed off Holyhead this morning at nine o'clock, and her ar rival here is expected about three P.M. The Canadian dates from Boston are to the 18th (the day of departure), and from Halifax to the 21st, the passage from the latter place occupying only seven days. The mails will not be delivered in town till Monday.

The following description of this meeting is given by the Morning Post:— "It may be safely assumed that this was the most turbulent meeting ever held in the city of London. It was, in fact, a complete bear-garden from beginning to end. Every sentence that was uttered was met by loud cries of ' question,' and the speeches throughout were greeted with the most discordant noises. Seven or eight persons strove to speak at a time, and, as about twice that number generally rose to order, the scene that presented itself was of a most amusing character. The chairman seemed heartily tired of the situation he occupied, a feeling that was not diminished by the circumstance that, during the heat of the disturbance, Mr. Cobden, Mr. Osborne, and others, retreated from the room, leaving him • alone in his glory.'" [We have but one observation to make upon this statement, namely, that it is not in any respect cha racterised by veracity. On the contrary, the obser vation that the meeting was throughout a scene of uproar, is not so much a perversion of the truth, as a wilful and deliberate falsehood. Oue individual cer tainly endeavoured occasionally to create a disturb ance on the occasion, and most probably, from the " feeling" displayed in the foregoing, that indi vidual was the writer of the above paragraph. In stead of being a " bear-garden," or anything of that sort, the meeting was altogether one of the moat splendid manifestations of popular enthusiasm within our recollection.—En.

SIR,— I enclose the remainder of the half Bank of Eng land five-pound note (No. 09,004) forwarded to you on the 25th inst., for the relief of the patriotic Hungarians. They are, no doubt, anxiously waiting for the means of flying to the help of their countrymen, and I hope that a heartier and more generous spirit may be quickly shown by the more wealthy among us to send aid to so noble a people, in defence of all that is sacred to men or to na tions. If we cannot be aroused by such a cause, let us abjure the name we bear, and no longer insult the me mory of our forefathers by calling ourselves Englishmen or Britons, for their spirit must have fled from us. The spirit of every educated freeman has burned within him while reading the glorious struggles of the Greeks at Marathon, at Salamis; but here is a struggle equally just and glorious, and almost as unequal, going on before our own eyes—the unuffending Hungarians defending their homes and the cause of universal freedom against their barbarian aggressors, the Russians, and we, the countrymen of Sydney and of Hampden, of Bruce and Wallace, refuse even a supply of money aed arms to the gallant Magyars in their hour of need! Hoping that your noble appeal may be more suc cesful, I remain, Sir, your obedient servant, A YORKSHIREMAN. Yoik,July 27, 1849.
