": _ ^" bßart +9•"-ifit,iteir w_Jitv ir41,44,14 LONDON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1849 According to the old adage, it must be an ill wind indeed that blows no one any good ; and appalling as is the character, and grievous as are the ravages of the pestilence still devastating the metropolis, we may expect that some extraordinary improvement in our sa nitary laws will date from the prevalence of the cholera. Seldom has public attention been so generally occu pied with the consideration of one subject. And no wonder. Questions regarding abstract principles may exercise the ingenuity and occupy the thoughts of the logician and the philosopher, but to the multitude they are comparatively without interest. Far otherwise is it with a matter like this, relating to life and death, which affects each and all of us with personal concern. The cholera is now (very naturally) the subject of discourse in every assembly, friends and strangers alike find in it a subject of common sympathy. Ever journal is half filled with details concerning it. In one column we find a list of the daily victims of the pestilence ; in another a form of prayer, entreating from the mercy of PROVIDENCE an abatement of the affliction. Again we recognise the wise fulfilment of that most excellent maxim, approved alike by reason and religion, " Aide toi et Dieu taidera." Simulta neously with the supplication for Divine help, we are rejoiced to witness some indications of human efforts. Already some of those fruitful sources of corruption, the burial-grounds of London, have been closed by order. Things are come to a sad pass when we are able to find matter of gratulation in the fact that no more corpses will be laid in spots already so full, already crammed to such a revolting and poisonmis degree as fully to justify the recent parody of Punch on the far famed " Elegy in a Country Church yard." Very different was the sacred spot, beneath "some yew tree's shade," which inspired the musings of GRAY, to the hundrits to which the following verses might be truthfully applied : " Good folks, impute not to their friends the fault, If memory o'er their bones no tombstone raise; Where there lie dozens huddled in one vault No art can mark the spot where each decays. " Full many a gas of direst power unclean The dark, o'erpeopled graves of London bear. Full many a poison, born tJ kill unseen. And spread its rankness in the neighbouring air. " To some doomed breast the noxious vapour flits, Some luckless lung the deadly reth inspires; Ev'❑ from the tomb morbific fumes arise— Ev'n in men's ashes live Disorder's fires." This iniquitous system—for when its consequences are considered it may truly be styled iniquitous—is, however, virtually at an end. The cholera has effectually closed the graveyards of London, and also the details connected with the cholera have occasioned such publlc revelations of the undercurrent of misery and loathsomeness which exists beneath the 'itter and the gold of mighty London, that all but impossible but that „"some interference ; egisiative or otherwise will be called in to remedy a grievance so intolerable. A correspondent of the Times has suggested that a public subFcription should be raised in behalf of those (and the class must be a numerous one) whom the pestilence has deprived of their protectors and sole means of suiport. A mul titude of widows and orphans and helpless beings must necessarily be suffering pitiably. Many a perhaps thriving family has been, by one stroke, re duced to the border of destitution. These are, indeed, fit subjects for charity : a helping hand stretched in time may save multitudes from, otherwise, irretrievable misery. Still, however praiseworthy such an attempt would be, the evil effects of the cholera, have imposed a yet more imperative duty upon the public. No longer can it be said "one half of the world does not know how the other half exists ;" the condition of the inhabitants of the courts and alleys of London is no longer a secret to the great body of the wealthy and the powerful. When an evil is recognised the first step has been taken towards its amendment. GOD grant it may; be so in the present instance. The cholera has already been the means of sketching out a vast amount of business for the next sitting of Parliament. Let the public bear the matter in mind, and evince their continual remem brance of it, and that business will be satisfactorily accomplished. _n addition to what we have already observed in reference to the generation and diffusion of the preva lent epidemic, we must be permitted to express, the most emph at i c terms at our command, command our abhor rencein at the di sgraceful scenes now daily ' and almost hourly witnessed i n our metr opolitan and provincial graveyards. Cleanliness is next to Godliness ; says the old axiom ; but neither cleanliness nor godliness have we, at the very time ben the country is bein g deco lated by an awful and destructive pestile nce : we have neither cleanliness in regard to the treatment of the living, nor godliness in reference to the treat ment of the dead. Our rookeries and the more penurious quarters of our most splendid cities attest the former fact in their want of decent regula. tions, of proper drainage, and of moderate ventilation, Again and again is some ghastly incident recorded in our ovtn columns or in those of our Contemporaries, affording horrible testimony as to the accuracy of the latter assertion. Only yesterday a paragraph was quoted by ourselves from tha West Briton and Cornwall Advertiser, recounting a very hideous oc currence which recently transpired at Falmouth. -On turning again to our Cornish Contemporary, we find the necessity for some improvement in the system of interment in that locality, enforced by a long and earnest communication from 111. P. R. DE LA TREBONNAIS. After explaining the miserable con dition of the graveyard at Falmouth, where the coffins are "separated from the surface by merely two feet of putrid soil," that gentleman asserts, and very justly asserts, that this is indeed " a brand of shame deeply marked on the face of British civilization"—this mockery of religion, this defiance of all the laws of decency, this oblivion of all the claims of affection, of respect for sorrow, of regard for humanity, of reverence for the departed, By a persistance in a course so re pulsive to the gentle and elevating prin ciples inculcated by Christianity we are blunting all the more delicate sensibilities of our nature; we are parodying the most sublime and pathetic ceremonies of our ritual, and are doing our utmost to obliterate all recollection of the exceeding holiness of death. These things must not be permitted to continue. The islands must be purged of such abomina tions. To permit victims of cholera to be huddled into the earth like dogs, and at the same time to breath forth before the throne of GOD that beautiful prayer which has recently been d compose by his Grace the Archbishop of CANTERBURY—is nothing less than an insult to that Awful Being whose Omnipotence we are desirous of propitiating. Such considerations as these we are satisfied will be suffi cient to command the interference of the authorities, both at Falmouth and elsewhere, throughout the United Kingdom. The parsons seem determined to keep up the ball with spirit. The freaks of the Rev. Messieurs JONES and CHAPMAN have Barely been concluded when two new clerical candidates for notoriety step into the arena, as if striving to emulate the performances of the former fanatic duumvirate. The incumbent of Bedford has already reaped the reward of his achieve ment, in the form of a Government prosecution, which has been instituted against him for misde meanour. The petty tyrant thought fit to refuse to marry two parties whose banns had been published th en e the usual mann e r, an d w h o d u ly presented to h reg i stroafr'sh his certificate.de tduty will bTeherelgigahrdt ed in at w t h h i e ch L t ierp vio lation h -e e eo assizes prejgude yet the ee we to sh b a e ll s d ee is n m ; iss an th d em notincucabrienngt o to f Bedford for the present. His confrere, the Vicar of Leigh, is evidently a man of mettle in his way, and disdai ns t o b e out generalled by episcopal auth or ity. It appears that remains s a young woman, named Mar ANN KEABSLEY, the daughter of a weaver residing in his happy parish, bad contracted, a few weeks since, a matrimonial en gagement with a young man of a parish adjoining. They requested the vicar to publish the banns of marriage, but he refused to comply with their desire, alleging a similar reason to that advanced by his brother of Bedford —namely, that they had not both undergone the rite of confirmation. An appeal from this monstrous decision was made to the Bishop of MANCHESTER, who of course forthwith directed the, publication of the banns, and they have accordingly been published during two succeeding Sundays. One might naturally suppose that the mandate of the Bishop would have set the matter at rest, and that the clergyman would have proceeded to act " de cently and in order," but the vicar had another arrow in his quiver, and speedily saluted the family of the bride elect in the character of a process-server. Will it be believed that he has actually intimated his intention of instituting proceedings against herself, her father, and her brother—the father having been guilty of the high crime of neglecting to cause his children to be confirmed, and the children of neglect ing to attend the church for that purpose ? We transcribe the notable document which the Reverend Gentleman served in person on the astounded weaver, for universal edification : "I, James Irvine, vicar of Leigh, in the county of Lancaster, and diocese of Manchester, do hereby require you, James Kearsley, weaver, residing in a cottage situate in a street commonly called Canal -street, near the east cnd of Twist-lane, in the township of Penning ton, within the parish of Leigh aforesaid, to send your son Peter, and your daughter Mary Ann, to the parish church on Sunday next, and on every succeeding Sunday and holiday, to be there instructed and examined in the Church Catechism, atter the second lesson at evening prayer, until such time as they have learned all that is therein appointed for them to learn.—Dated this 6th day of September, in the year of our Lord 1840. (Signed) "J. lavnen, Vicar of Leigh." Accompanj ing this was an extract from the canons of the Church, to the effect that a neglect of such duty is to be visited with suspension by the ordinary, and persistence therein for the space of a month, by excommunication. We shall not insult the common sense of our readers by asking their opinion as to whether this proceeding was instituted by the vicar out of regard to the parties concerned as members of his flock, or out of a paltry spite at finding himself compelled by superior authority to retrace his steps in the matter of the publication of the banns. We can surely feel no pleasure in chronicling or commenting upon the mis conduct of any minister of religion, no matter of what sect or denomination of Christianity. Indecencies on the part of those who are invested with sacred functions, however they may provoke the scoffs of the irreverent, are matters of grief and shame to well-thinking Christian men. But if the noisome and noxious weed so f bigotry are permitted to take root with impunity in the corn-field of the State Church—if the lordly hierarchy are unable or un willing to root up the tares now springing plenteously among the wholesome wheat are we the worst enemies of the Church of England who point to the creeping abomination, and lift up our voice in warning to the nodding watchers ? Many truly honest and pious men are to be found among the pastors of the Church by law established ; but he must be indeed a sorry reader of the signs of the times who fails to perceive the gradual diminution of respect and affection for that corporate body among the intelligent adherents of the reformed doctrines, roe great has been, and now is, its faith in temporal power—too strong its reliance upon the fleshly arm. There is manifest in it a want of spi ritual expansion—a forgetfulness, or a blindly obsti nate disbelief in the great and irresistible progress of the human mind—a systematic stagnancy, unbroken save by scattered symptoms of retrogression, that rationally account for its decaying influence. The Church of England was founded on progress, and if it resist the power:which called it into being, and cling to the pernicious doctrine of finality, the ever-advanc ing tide of intelligence will assuredly sweep it into ruin. Whatever power it has possessed, or may still retain, is derived solely from the fact that, at the period of its establishment, it represented the para mount idea of the day, namely, the right of private judgment. Has the Reformed Church fully repre sented that idea ? Has it even fairly and heartily recognised it in theory ? No, it yearns after the leaven of infallibility, and no longer maintains the position it once proudly held, and on which its solid strength was exclusively based. It daily assumes the increasing, though unsubstantial, proportions of a gigantic incubus on thought,' of the palsied expositor (,f a soulless doctrine, " cabin'd, confin'd," in the meshes of Mammon, clogged by petty ambition and the narrow aspirations of worldly pride and emo lument. Who is so blind as not to foresee the advent of the day when the worn-out mechanism must fall to pieces, and when not all the mind-cramping formulas, or the tinselled temporalities, however bloated with the treasures which moth and rust loth corrupt, can save the gaudy shrine from ruin, and its effete hiero phauts from impotency and decay ? THE PITMAN COURT-MARTIAL. We have received a communication this morning from Mr. W. J. Little, the legal adviser of Mr. Elliott, late master of a M.S. Childers, in which the former gentleman transmits to us a copy of the letter penned by his client and inserted in our columns of sesterday evening. It will doubtless have been per ceived by Mr. Little, from that impression of our journal, that we are disposed to be anything rather than dilatory in advocating the cause of those much injured and unfortunate officers, at present suffering an undeserved incarceration " felons "in the county gaol at Exeter. Until their sentence shall have been revised, their punishment mitigated, and until their grievous wrongs have received in some measure at least the semblance of compensation, we shall not cease, to insist upon the necessity of a complete re-or ganization of the present atrocious system of courts.. martial. will show the reserve which we have used in publish ing the reports of the foreign journals : in thanking you for the report which you made to Tag iu your letter of the Bth inst., we can sariily you as to the movement of the Austrian troops on your fron tiers, and enable ycu to contradict the rep.rts which are in circulation in your clnton es to the object of that con centration of troops, which were said to be intended and ready to invade it. We have learnt from several coin munications that these movements are not to be at tributed to any hostile intention, and that the establish ment of Austrian military posts on the extreme frontier of Switzerland has no other object than to prevent the desertion of individuals who wish to escape the cr!u scription, which is now taking - place in Lombardy, and at the same time to repress the smuggling which is now beink. carried on very extensively on that frontier. The marches and counter.marches of the troops have, besides been made on sanitary consideration, the opportuneness of which cannot be contested. This information will be sufficient to tranquillise the minds of your people, to whom it will be d: sit able to make it known." ITALY. It appears, from certain letters from Naples pub lished in the Statato, that the reception of Pro NINo in that city...was anything but enthusiastic. The people well understand how impossible it is for the tool of the Jesuits ever to become the liberator of Italy. The Concordia of Turin contains the following from Rome, Sept. 17th Several Spanish soldiers lately entered a house at Zagarolo in order to carry off a young woman. Her htuband defended her some time, but at last, seeing that re s i s t ance was va i n, h e killed her with his: own hand, preferring to see her dead rather than dishonoured. Several peasants, at tracted by the noise, hastened to the spot, while-more Spaniards came to the assistance of their comrades. A fray ensued, in which the peasants had the worst , of it , three of them were seized and shot on the spot. Since this event, Zagarolo has-become a desert, every one having retired to the country to avoid similar scenes." These are some of the consequences of the restora tion of Pio Noxo by foreign bayonets. If we mis take not, his HOLINESS a few days since bestowed his blessing on these very Spanish soldiers. A letter from Florence of the 10th, which is pub lished in the Journal des Debats, says : " The general subject of conversation here for the last few days is a treaty of alliance, offimsive and defensive, which is to be concluded between Austria and Tuscany. This news, which, however, has nothirg of an officiul character in it, Las produced a painful impression in Florence; the bearing of such a political act is not dis sembled; it is considered to be an abjuration of inde pendence and netionality on the part of the Tuscan Gc vernment. This is not all. Under pretence that the present organization and composition of the Tuscan troops is not such as could be wished, which it may be remarked is very true, the army is to he entirely dismanded, with the exception of one regi ment, and six thousand Austrians to be taken into the pay of Tuscany, which, without being nationalised, will constitute the only national force of tlie country. Without entering into all the considerations of domestic policy, which militate against such a state of things, it is asked which of the two sovereigns these troops will obey in the event of any disagreement be tvwen the Emperor and Grand Duke. The internel state of affairs, which is very prosperous, is complicated by a ternporaay financial crisis. The Government owes about 35 millions of Tuscan livres ; but the prepo ty of the State r,:presents a value of nearly 200 million.. A bean and the constitution of a public debt may thus provide for the embarrassment of the moment. The guarantees which are offered by Tuscany incontes, tittle; several English and French companies offer to fur nish the loan ; the house of Rothschild has even been seriously spoken of. But here arises a 11 4 . FY difficulty, which engrges public tytentien in the highest degree. The question which Liss been first raised by the lend ers is, whether the Tuscan Government is absolute or con stitutional. If it is absolu:e, they say the decision of the Sovereign is sufficient for us ; but if it is constitu tional, the loan to be valid must be sanctioned by the Chasebers. The Ministry has nut hesitated to reply that the constitutional regime was muintaiie d in 1 us cany ; bat the Chambers not being cot:v.:deed, the loan could not be legally made. The question, therefore, re mains pending, and the state of affairs becomes more aggravated. Recourse was at first had to usurious loans, which have exhausted the last resources; the family tax was then tripled, which has caused great discontent. The family tax, in fact, although proportional, weighs for the most pert on the inhabitants of the country, whose attachment to the person of the Grand Duke has never failed, and it is to be feared that it wiA tend to alienate the sympathies of the people from the Govern ment. The reply of the Ministers relative to the main tenance of the Constitution was received with very sig. nificative favour. It is said that the Ministry is de decided on persisting in that path, and is ready togive in its resignation en masse if it is sought to make tiny at tack on what it has promised. The retirement of the Ministry under existing circumstances would be a thing much to be regretted, the members of it justly en joying the confidence of the public. Baron de Ilugel, the Austrian Chars d'Affair e s, has j ust arr i ved h ere, and has delivered his letters of credence to the Grand Duke, who returned the day before yesterday Iron his country residence at Pratolitio, whither Lc had retired with Lis fatcily after the death of his daughter, the Archduchess Christina, at which he was much affected. This young Princess was only euven years of age, sad she makes the fourth child which he hest lost. The health of the hereditary Prince is also delicate, but up to this time has not caused any uneasiness." `l rte Reforma of Lucca, of the 11th, states that the new Tuscan law of the press will contain an article empowering the Government to suspend journals on application from any Ambassador accredited to the court of Tuscany. The Tuscan bishops have ad dressed a circular to all the curates in their dioceses, recommending them to read in public the Act of the Roman congregation prohibiting GIOBERTI'S book, with an injunction to declaim against the heresiarch GIOBERTI. The Legge of Turin, a semi-official journal, of the 14th says— " Garibaldi has gone to Nice. His language has been constantly that of a men who understands the necessities of the times, and who would not be even an involuntary cause of discord. The royal authorities have treated him with every regard due to misfortune and military courage. Lieutenant-General Lanaarmora has behaved to him so as to conciliate generosity with duty. The population of Genoa has observed, with respect, to Gari baldi, a most becoming behaviour." The Risorgimento, and other Turin papers, state that GARIBALDI had been allowed to go to Nice to see his relations, but was to return to Genoa within twenty-four hours. The Risorgimento of Turin quotes a letter from Parma of the 11th, slating that on the preceding night the DuKE caused the Convent of Benedictines and the College of Barnabites to be surrounded by dragoons, and had the inmates forced into carriages ready for the purpose, and transported beyond his frontier. The foiowing decree relating to this act was published in the Parma Gazette of the 12th : MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotten Make': at Liverpool yesterday was rather animated and closed firmly. Prices of American were rather higher. The sulcs were estimated at 7,000 bales, 4,000 of which were taken on speculation. It appears that the Belgian Government have pub a lengthened statement showirg the position of the public debt, which is satisfactorily decreasing. Since 1848, when the Government was perilled by the position of affairs in France, the revenue has improved, and out of the surplus receipts the debt has been dimi nished by 1,53.5,006 francs within the last eighteen months, without aid or reference to the appropriation set apart from the sinking fund. There are no late arrivals to-day from the colonies which put us in possession of information of interest. The half-yearly Court of Bank Stock Proprietors takes place to-morrow. According to the position of the " rest," it is not anticipated that any further distribu tion than at the rate of seven per cent. will be made. The Public Securities have shown little variation to day, the buliness transacted having been extremely limited, Consols continue as they have been all the morning, 921 to s for Money, and 921 to for the Ac count.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. The decree of the PRESIDENT authorising the Bishops to hold their Council, and the report of the Minister on what it is founded, have excited the ire of parti-pretre, and the ridicule of the liberal party. The parti-pretre loudly declare that they never required such authorization, and that they should have met in spite of any temporal law forbid ding their meeting, because the spiritual power being superior to the temporal, the latter must always give way to the former; in fact they declare that priests are superior to all laws, and thus throw down the gauntlet, which we hope the Executive will have the courage to take up and vindicate the majesty of the law ; for liberty, civil or religious, is impossible where such pretensions are admitted. The Republicans, on the other hand, taunt the Go vernment with their panic fear in the presence of the priesthood. The National, in the course of a most sarcastic article on this subject, observes-- "The report of the Minister is curious; no one can fail to remark how timid and embroiled it is. Any per son capable of reading must perceive that the necessary authorization had never been asked for. At the last moment the weak Government by which we are ruled, not daring to assert formally the recognition of the law, and ashamed to abandon it, adopted the middle course of granting what nobody asked—a miserable expedient, which can serve no other purpose than that of giving the measure of its incurable weakness." The article concludes thus : "The Government has, on its side, obeyed the Organic Law—that is certain ; but it is equally certain that, on their side, the Fathers of the Council have not obeyed it; and it appears to us a matter to be deeply regretted that men so holy should set such an example." The Evenement states that the illness of M. DB Fera.oux is a nervous intermittent fever, and that lie will go to Versailles for change of air as soon as he shall have gained sufficient strength to be removed. " It is certain," adds the .Evenement, " that M. DE FALLoux will not retire from office before the discus sion in the Assembly, in which he will defend the line of policy that he has pursued." The Credit says : " We are assured that, after several meetings, held lately at the Ministry of Public Instruction, the family of M. de Falleux.has charged ono of its members to convey to the President of the Council of Ministers an intreaty that he will cease to urge M. de Falloux to re main in the Cabinet, and to transmit to the President of the Republic his formal resignation, which has been placed in the bands of M. Odilon Barret." The Constitutionnel contains the following an nouncement:-- "Rear-Admiral Romain Desfosses has been named to succeed M. Lc Predour in the command of the naval division in the Rio Plata. M. DesioslAid will shortly leave for Brest, where he will hoist his flag on board the Pandora frigate, which will have a poop deck b u il t for his accommoation. The Prony steamer will accom pany the Pandore to La Plata. The mission of Admiral Desfost6s does not appear to be of a purely naval charac ter; he has had frequent conferences with the Minister of Foreign Affairs." The cholera has broke out in Toulon, and such was the panic among the population occasioned by its appearance, that more than one-third of the inha bitants fled from the town. The military have offered their services to attend on the sick. In Paris the cholera is decreasing. The Gazette des Hopitaux says— " The diminution in the cholera, which we spoke of in our last account, has been maintained during the last three days, and even appears to have a tendency to be come more marked. The average number of admissions on Wednesday and Thursday was only 25, and that of the last three days 24. 'lbis is certainly no very great difference, hut still it is tranquillising, since it is another term in a decreat;ibg progression, and because it comes at a moment when it is allowable, unless circumstances altogether unexpected should arise, to fix the natural termination of the epidemic." The Patric of last evening has the following :-- "An Italian journal, the Cchcordia, has stated, and on its authority a Paris journal has repeated, that the expulsion of Garibaldi from Piedmont had been occa _ _ sinned by a note from the French Government. We are in a position to declare in the most categorical mataier that this allegation is completely void of foundation." BOURSE—PARIS, TUESDAY, SEPT. 18. THREE O'CLCCH.—The market continues inanimate, and very little variation is perceptible in prices. The Five per Cents. opened at at 88f. 75c., the highest price of the day, and closed at 88f. 70c., the lowest, or sc. higher than the last price of the day before. The Three per Cents. opened at 56f. 40c., and closed at 56f. 25c., or 15c. lower. Bank of France Shares are again unchanged at 2,335 f.

BUSINESS DONE IN FOREIGN RAILWAYS AT TEE LONDON STOCK-EXCHANGE. SEPT. 18. Sambre and bleuse, 2 1 / 9 —Tours and Nantes, O. led to the alliance of his Majesty the Emperor cf Russia with Austria, in order to put us down by conquest, and render all further struggle for the Hungarian Censtitu tion impossible. " This came to pass. Many of the genuine true patriots of Hungary had foreseen this event, and pro claimed it warningly. The history of our days will hereafter reveal what induced the Provisional Govern ment to close its car to those warning voices. This Provisional Government exists no longer. The height of peril bad found it at the w e ak es t. I, t h e man of Lc , tion, but not of ineffectual acti on , saw t h at a ll f urt h er bloodshed was useless, disastrous for Hungary. I had seen it in the beginning of the Russian intervention. I called to-day upon the Provisional Government to ab dicate unconditionally, beeatpe its continuance in power could only render darker from day to day, and more deplorable the future of our father land. The Provisional Government admitted this, and voluntarily' esigned, laying down the supreme power in my hands. I avail eayeelf of this circumstance, ac cordieg to my best persuasion, in order to spere the effusion of blood, and to libe ra t e my peaceful fellow citizens, whom I am too weak any longer to protect, from at least the miseries of war, by laying down arms unconditionally, and thereby perhaps giving the im pulse to the leaders of the divisions of the Hungarian forces, separated from me, shortly to do the same, ac knowledging like me that thi s at present is the best that can be done for Hungary. I confide while so doing in the far-famed magnanimity of H. M. the Czar, that so many of my brave comrades, who by the force of eir cumaances as former Austrian officers, got in vo l ve d i n thisr sacrificed a mournful, u ncerta i n fate, and the deeply to oY struggle with A us t r i a , should not be people of Hu ngary , who rely upon his love o should not be giv en over unarmed to the blind vengeance of their enemies. P er h aps it would be atone ment enough if I wore accept e d as a sacrifice for all. u bowed n down justice, s " I address this letter to you, General, became I received first from you those proofs of esteem which won my confidence. Hasten, if you wish to stop further useless bloodshed, t o b ring as speedily as possible to effect the sad act of laying down arms, but in such a manner that it may take place only in the presence of the troops of his Majesty the Emperor of Russia ; for I solemnly declare that I will rather let my whole corps be destroyed is desperate battle against overwhelming odds, than unconditionally lay down arms before the Austrian troops. I march to morrow, Aug. 12, to Villagos, the day after to-morrow, 13th, to Boros Jeno, on the 14th to Bed, which I com municate to you, that you may bring your forces between the Austrian troops and mine, so as to enclose and part us from them. " Should this near ccavre rct succeed, and the Austrian troops follow me close, I will give them a decided re puts-, and draw off my forces towards Grosswardein, in order in this way to reach the Imperial Russian army, before which alone my troops have declared themselves ready voluntarily to lay down their arms. I expect your esteemed answer within the shortest time possible, and conclude with the assurance of my high regard. "ARTHUR GEORGEY, Hu! garian General. " Old Arad, Aug 11, 1849." The following is his letter to KLAPKA 16 : g. . " Dear fri en d Klapka,—Since Grosswar we last d met, Au events de cisive, though not unanticipated, have occurred. The eternal jealousies of the Government, and the vulgar animosities of some of its members, have led to the results that I foresaw last April. Having crossed the Theiss at Tokay, after many an horn st fight, with the Russians, a decree of the Diet conferred upon me the supreme command. Kossuth secretly nominated Bern. The country thought I was the man, because Kossuth gave a Jesuitical answer to the resolution of the As sembly. This rascality was the cause of every subse quent occurrence. Dembinski lost a battle at Szareg; Bern was beaten at Maros-Vaserhely. The latter hastened to Temesvar, under whose watts Dcra• hinaki re:ired. He arrived on the field during the battle of Temesvar, protracted the contest for acme hours ; but was then se thoroughly routed, that of the 50,000 men (according to Kossuth 's quotation) only 6 000 remained tow,4,ther. The rest wore scattered, as Veesey himaell told me. Meanwhile the Austrians advanced between Temesvar and Arad. Dembins.ki's orders from the War-office were to retreat on the fortress Aral, and not on Temesvar, that was in hostile hands; but Dembinski ran counter to their orders—wherefbre, I know not, but there are too many grounds for supposing it was from jealousy of me. The consequence of all this was, that I feund myself standing alone with the force I bad brought wish me from Co morn, after subtracting the great losses I suffered at Waitzen, Ressav, Gorahstiily, Isol , ca, Gessthely, and Debrcczin ; t h e Austrians threatening me on th e south, a n d t h e Russ i an ma i n f orce on the north. I had, it is true, one line of retreat from of A my radovceorußnterely, thatto Transylvania was ua but for the sa k e it might, to p ac ify, I reso l ve d to capitulate. [Here, you will o b serve , not hi ng i s sa id of Schlick' s v i ctory on the Maros ov er a p ar t o f Georgey's army.] I had pre viously reasoned with the Provisional Government o n ; determined, cost wh a t the inutility of their attempting to serve the country h any T longer, and prevailed upon them to resign. ey acted upon my counsels, and confided in my hands all civil and military power; upon which I, as there was no ti me to lose, formed the sudden though not ill-digested determi nation to surrender at discretion to the army of the Russian Emperor. The bravest of the brave in my army gave me their support, and all the army divisions in the immediate vicinity joined on to us of their own free will. The fortress of Arad, under Damjanich, has declared its readiness to do likewise. Hitherto we hare been treated us brave soldiers deserve and have a right to expect at the hands of brave soldiers. Weigh and ponder we I 1 what you can and a hat you ought to do. (Signed) " ARTHUR GEORCEY." The Vienna journals publish the following par ticulars of the surrender of Peterwardein : " After the plenipotentiaries bad met on the 4th near Marx Schnee, the deputies of Peterwardein returned to the fortress. The officers, who were well aware that they had incurred severe punishment for their treason, sought to induce the garrison t o d ecide against capitu lation. They formed into two parties, who on the 6th proceeded from words to blows, and several were killed and wounded. The party for capitulation remained victorious, and accordingly at seven o'cluck• in the morning the formal capitulation took place. Colonel Puffer entered the fortress from the Pasaka side, Colonel Mamalu from Kamenitz, and General Hartlief from Carlowitz. The entry was welcomed by the warm ac clamations of the inhabitants. The garrison was dis armed and sent to 'Essag, where the rebel commander Kiss was also sent under a strong escort. Many of the officers went to Titcl by the steamer. These and the greater part of the Honveds were set at liberty. Thus this most important place, both in a statistical and commercial point of view, is now in the hands of the Imperialists. From Pesth of the 10th in st., s we learn that the Generals ERNEST Kiss and LENKEY had been con demned to be shot, and that they had even been executed. Among the number of prisoners in Pesth was the editor of the weekly journal of Tameswar, M. WATCHTEL. The following letter has been addressed to PASKE.• WITCH by the Emperor of ArETRIA " Sehonbrun, Aug. 22. " Prince of Warsawl—The good news which your Serene Highness was pleased to communicate to rue in your letter of the 16th has caused to ire satisfaction as sincere as it is just. The brave army which you command, Field-Marshal, which is accustomed to victory under your orders, has brilliantly justified, in the Hungarian campaign, its long -acquired glory. Your Highness has obtained, upon the. Hungarian fields of battle, new claims upon the satisfaction of his Imperial Majesty, my most illustrious friend and ally, as well as upon my profound gratitude. The most eminent honour attached to your services is found in the brilliant result. To have compelled a considerable portion of the insurgent army to surrender unconditionally without the sacrifice of valiant blood, is a mightier triumph, Prince, than, many blood-stained laurels. As a public and certain merle of my lively gratitude, I transmit a ith this letter the in signia of a grand cross of my order of Maria Theresa. Scost undoubtedly, Fiek-Marsha!, would I cast an im penetrable veil over the past if I dared follow the dic tates of my own heart, end the first wish of my heart would be (esmir men angelegen sain lessen) to discover means for healing the sanguinary wounds which the criminal insurrection has inflicted upon unhappy Hun gary. But I must not forget that I have a sacred duty to perform to the rest of my people, and that the general welfare of my empire imposes duties and considerations upon me that I must not lose sight of. Nevertheless, your Highness has done me justice in premising that my happiness would be more complete in proportion to the fol hearance which I may be enabled to exhibit in my rightful and general estimation of all these important events. "Accept, Field - Marbbal, the renewed assurances of the consideration and sincere attachment with which I re main your well-disposed, (Signed) " FRANZ JOSEPH." PRUSSIA. The Bursenhalle of Berlin .states that the Prussian army is about to be reduced, and that the battalions of infantry will henceforth be only 802 strong, in stead of 1,002. The regiments of Landwehr are, it ad , ls, to be broken up, but some companies are to be maintained. The Berlin Slate Gazette announces that the lines of telegraph belonging to the Government will shortly be thrown open to the use of the public. The state of siege of Posen has just been raised. A letter from Stettin states that, since the conclu sion of the armistice between Prussia and Denmark, trade has become very active in that town and in all tl:e neighbourhood. An abolition or reduction of the Sound duties was discussed. There was a scarcity of sailors, owing to the great number which had been taken by the vessels of war. SWITZERLAND. WC fit the following in the Ticino Gazette:— "It has been remarked for some time past that the Austrian troops hare been increased in an extraordi nary manner on the frontiers cf Ticino, without the slightest apparent object. This circumstance, added to the reports 'which are circulated in the German, Engii3h, and F rench journals, as to a project of. in.. tervention in S w i tz rland, and on the fears of the occupation of the canton of Ticino, hz;s awakened the . attention of the Council of State of that canton, whi . ch has applied to the 11 1 41 (3.;era. —OllDc... on the subj , :et, callin g its attention to this important affair, and demanding the adoption of treasures nectssary to tranquilli se the minds of the inhabitants of the canton.

The Venice Gazette of the 12th states that a de putation of Venetians has set out for Vienna, in order to present to the EMPEROR the homage end obedience of the city of Venice. The deputation is composed of the Cardinal Patriarch jACOPO Monczo, Count GIOVANNI CORREIt, Prince GIOVANEL LI , Count Thccoro PRIEM, Chevalier Gia como T nivrs, Chev. BONFILI, and M.

The following is an extract from a mercantile letter, dated Leghorn, Sept. 12, 1849 :—" The d a y before yesterday our Banco was invaded by a Tuscan armed force, to force the 2,500 livres of tax and forced loan of the Chamber of Commerce. It is roNv a diplomatic questicn.

Madrid journals of the 13th have arrived. The QUEEN and KING returned to Madrid on that day from La Granja. The Clamor Publico of the 13th complains bitterly of the injury inflicted on trade by the non-publication of the new law on the tariff, and says that the delay in giving effect to this measure had caused heavy losses to the parties engaged in commercial affairs. The Epoca has the following statement on the tariff question : " The examination of the project of the new tariff was not seriously commenced till the day before yesterday. At the first meeting there were present the Ministers of Foreign Affairs, Finance, the Home Department, and Marine, the only ones who are now in Madrid, the directors and sub-directors of the Customs, and we know not whether sem° other competent persons. A sitting of two hours will take place every day, being devoted to this important subject, and it is thought that the exami nation of the new tariff will be terminated by the 20th. The printing of the now tariff will occupy eight to twelve days, so that the publication will take place at the end of September or beginning of October. " It would be rash at this time to say what spirit will dominate in these sittings, and what alterations will be made in the project adopted by Senor Mon. It is gene rally believed that the tariff will be somewhat more Pro tectionist in some chapters." The Herald() says:— " They write from Naples that the Infante Don Se bastian desires ardently to return to Spain. It would please us very much to see these desires satisfied, as an additional proof of the reconciliation of al Spaniards, and of the existence of a definitive state of things which no human power can now overthrow."

GERMAN Y AND THE NORTHERN STATES. AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY. A letter from Vienna of the 13th says—" Marsha. RADarZKY _has this day made a triumphal entry into this city. He was received at the railway station by the Ban JELLACIIICIT, Prince SCIIWARTZENDERG, Count GIULAY, Minister of War, the Minister of Commerce, Baron IVELDErI, Governor of the city, and the military and civil authorities. The population gree:ed him with enthusiastic shouts, and flowers were showered on him from the windows. An iliu- Initiation and serenade were to be given in his honour in the evening, The Municipal Council of Vienna intends to confer the right of honorary citizenship on the Marshal and on the Ban JELLACIIICII, and it is reprted on Prince \VINDISEGRATZ also." The. Austrian Lloyd's announces that the Minister of Finance is about to issue a new loan, and to take measures with respect to the reserved shares of the Bank, which will effect a radical reform in the estab lishment. According to the Vienna journals of the 6\l 80,000 men are to besiege Comorn, under the orders of Generals HAYNAU and NUGENT. The bombard ment was to commence on that day. The Austrians had occupied great part of the island of Schutt with out resistance, but part of the insurgents were in a strong entrenched camp before the fortress, and it was expected that a battle would take place there. Three Hungarian officers had been put to death at Arad and Temeswar, one by hanging, and the estates of two were confiscated. The Russians continued to retire from Hungary. On taking possession of Peterwardein, the Austrians found 300 guns and 4,000 muskets. On the 4th the new Austrian Constitution was for mally promulgated at Agram, before the Council of the Banat of Croatia and the local authorities. The King of HANovER has addressed a letter to General HATNAU, complimenting him on his services in Hungary, and conferring on him the Cross of the Order of the Guelphs. A letter from Klagenfurth of the 11th inst., ad dressed to the Austrian Lloyds, says:— " Geolgry arrived 11( re this morning with Lis wife, his phy.ician, and Major Andrau. He will be at perfect liberty here. As his arrival was expected, a great num ber of people went to see him enter the city." The following letters from GEORGEY to RUDIGE.II, proposing to surrender, and from GEORGEY to KLAPKA, urging him to give up the fortress of Co morn, have been published in the German journals:— "TO GENERAL RUDIGF.R.
