Yesterdey was published in our columns one of those noble and eloquent documents which are des. tined to survive in the recollection of posterity—the voice of patriotism resounding through the trumpet of history. It was impossible to read without brim ming eyes and a thrilling heart that most touching address, in which LOUIS KOSSUTH bade farewell to his countrymen. He who has been lifted up so high in expectation, and been hurled down so low in despondency; he who has suffered so much sorrow; and passed through so many privations to effect the emancipation of the land of his nativity, he who has toiled as a journalist, debated as an orator, schemed as a statesman, laboured as an administrator, and fought as a common soldier after having voluntarily resigned the supreme dictatorship; and who has nevertheless lived to see the futility of all his gigantic exertions, his heroic deeds, and untir ing perseverance in the blood and the flames, the betrayal and the desolation of his country—could not fail to speak in tones of such subduing sadness that their very echo should vibrate throughout Europe with the sound of an almost despairing lamentation. Listening to the voice of KOSSUTH in t'iis his last and most impassioned manifesto, we are reminded of that most touching sentence in Holy Writ—" RA CHEL weeping for her children, and would not iJc conoczted, because they were not !" The fare well aderess, dated from Orsova, by that illustrious man whose memory will live for ever in the annals of Europe as having been, at least for a brief but glorious interval, the Liberator of Hungary, calls irresistibly to cur remembrance the opening of that majestic prayer pronounced over the graves of his compatriots, " LORD GOD of the warriors of Arpad I' . or that renowned proclamation beginning, " Arise, my mighty, my gigantic people ! " Each syllable is the effusion of a heart almost bursting with anguish, each sentence rings with the pathetic intonations of suffering. " Farewell, my beloved country 1" he ex claims in accents of ardour, broken with iteration, " Farewell, land of the Magyar! Farewell, thou land of sorrow ! I shall never more behold the sum mit of thy mountains. I shall never again give the name of my country to that cherished soil where I drank from my mother's bosom the milks of justice and liberty !" Uttered in the mere anticipation of exile, now that his doom of banishment is accom plished those words have a touching significance. " How many grateful hearts have sent their prayers to the throne of the ALMIGHTY !" he ejaculates; 4' How many tears have gushed from their very depth to implore pity ! How much blood has been shed to testify that the Magyar idolizes his country, and that he knows how to die for it. And yet, land of my love, thou art in slavery ! I speak to thee my country thus from the abyss of my despair, and whilst yet lingering on the threshold of thy soil." After be seeching the forgiveness of his country for the blood ineffectually squandered for her defence, he remind s the nation very grandly of the daring path upon which he had adventured. "I pleaded for thee, I hoped for thee, even in the dark moment when on thy brow was written the withering word 'Despair l' I lifted up my voice in thy behalf when men said 'Be thou a slave.' I girt the sword about my loins, and I grasped the bloody plume, even when they said ' Thou art no longer a nation on the soil of the Magyar.'" " Magyars !" he cries out in continuation, " Magyars ! turn not aside your looks from me, for at this moment mine eyes flow with tears for you, for the soil on which my tottering steps still wander is named Hungary." To the subsequent portions of the document we would especially direct the attention of the people of England, corroborating as they do most forcibly all the statements we have hitherto made, all the conclusions we have hitherto drawn as to the dastardly and infamous treason of ANTBra GEORGET—a miserable renegade, whose career of infamy has been crowned by the degrading panegyrics of the apologists of Austria, and by the eulogiums of the reactionary newspapers of Lon don. KOSSUTH reminds his country that it is not the iron of the stranger that bas dug out her grave ; that it is not the thunder of fourteen nations all ar rayed against her that has led to her destruction ; that it is not the fifteenth nation traversing the Car pathians that has forced her to drop her arms. "No!" he exclaims with mingled anguish and indignation, 44 No 1 Thou hast been betrayed ; thou hast been sold, my country ; thy death-sentence bath been written, beloved of my heart, by him whose virtues, whose love for thee I never dared to doubt." Yes ! he continues to proclaim to the boldest Hungarians, tha t in the fervour of hi s thoughts he should almost as soon have questioned the existence of the Omnipotent GOD as have believed that he could be guilty of treason to the cause of the Magyars Yet this man, upon whose fidelity he had counted with an implicit reliance, who had sworn, indeed, to shed the last drop of his heart's blood in vindication of the rights of Hungary, this man whose loyalty he regarded with such supreme confidence, that he resigned to him the dictatorship, in conside ration of his popularity pith the army and the nation —this man had betrayed his trust, had done treason to h;s mother, had sold the liberties of his native land Ni f ffA - " for the gli•ter of gold hath 0 seductive than that of the blood • d ,47 .;: r-1, 1 q , ( 7 itry." And now, says the exiled uion to the abhorred GEOBGBY, 4 ic.,4946: stied him, as he had abandoned AI 3 S his GOD for his allies of hell." " Magyars !" he resumes in extenuation of his own unfortunate trust fulness; "Beloved companions, blame me not for having cast mine eyes on this man and for having given to him my place." Then, after explaining the reasons of his own abdication to make way for this miserable recreant, because of his momentary popula rity and his solemn assurances of patriotism, he cries out, in a voice of withering scorn and ungovern able indignation, " Curse him, people of the Magyars! Curse the breast which did not first dry up before it gave him its milk !" But reverting to his own ruined aspirations, he suddenly calls to mind the great national calamity, saying—" And thou art fallen ; faded as the lily." Still, although bewildered by the dissipation of so many golden and beloved visions, he cannot say farewell without leaving his people some testament of the wisdom and gentleness of his patriotism. This is the final advice of KOSSUTH to the Hungarians :—" Be faithful as thou bast been even to the present. Conform to the holy counsels of the Bible. Lift up thy heart in prayer for the departed; but do not raise thine own hymn until thou hearest the thunder of the liberating people echo along the mountains, and bellow in the depth of the valleys." " Farewell," he says, in conclusion— " Farewell, beloved companions ! Farewell, com rades ! countrymen ! May the thought of GOD, and may the angels of liberty for ever be with you. Farewell thou land, dyed with the blood of the brave ! May the ALMIGHTY bless thee my beloved country. Believe, hope, and love !" And so the sound of the Farewell dies away " like a tale that is told," and KOSSUTH mourns in exile over the woes of Hungary. Among those patriotic and philanthropic indivi(luals who have laboured for the amelioration of Ireland, and the elevation of that much afflicted land in the social scale, there have been few, if any, who have exerted themselves more zealously, consistently, or efficiently, than the Hon. Member for Rochdale, who, in his place in Parliament, and by his published writings, has unceasingly directed the public attention to the wrongs and sufferings of his native land, and who has suggested remedies which, if fully and fairly carried out, would at last have afforded a reasonable prospect of an improved state of affairs. Thoroughly acquainted with the true condition of the country, Mr. CRAWFORD has traced the acknowledged evils to their very foundations, and laid bare the hidden sources from whence they had their origin. No person possessed better opportunities for performing the self-imposed task, and no person has turned his opportunities to a better account. The proprietor of an extensive and well-cultivated estate, situated in one of the most densely inhabited, and, at the same time, one of the most prosperous localities in Ireland, he was enabled to investigate closely the causes that led to that com parative prosperity, to discover how it was that his district presented so great a contrast to the condition of other less favoured lccalities. He heard the com plaints of the landlords of the South and West of Ireland ascribing their own pecuniary difficulties, and the wretchedness and misery of their tenants and dependants, to " over population," and the subdivision of lands in their vicinities ; but he found that their assertions could not be correct, for with a more dense population, and a more minute subdivision of farms, he beheld a soil, naturally less productive than that of Munster or parts of Con naught, cultivated to the hi g hest degree, the people fully employed, and enjoying comforts unknown to their brethren in the South and West ; he saw landlord and tenant residing together in peace, friendship, and harmony, and naturally co-operating for the improve ment of the holdings. Oppression and cruelty by the one, or fraud and deceit by the other, were equally unknown—the occupier was not evicted, nor the proprietor shot—there were neither wholesale clear ances of estates, nor abductions of crops—no undue increase of rents, nor agrarian outrages ! To what, then, were these blessings fairly attributable ? What was the charm, more potent than the wand of the magician, that united the apparently conflicting elements and pro duced harmonious and most propitious results ? The problem was not very abstruse, or its solution hard to be discovered. The charm was " tenant right," which prevailed in certain districts of the northern province in which, happily for himself, Mr. CRAW FORD'S property was situate. Under that salutary custom the tenant, whether holding under lease or not, was permitted to acquire a certain " right of property in the occupation" of the land, which was looked upon as being as sacred and inaliennhlp AC ati. or the landlord himself. The most perfect security of tenure was afforded to the occupier, so long as he discharged bis part of the contract into which he had entered. He knew that he himself, or his children, would be permitted to enjoy the fruits of his industry, to reap the benefit of the improve ments he might effect ; that he had, as Mr. CRAWFORD well expresses it, " entered into a partnership with his landlord, for their mutual benefit," which partnership could not be dissolved by the landlord without paying to him the full marketable value of his interest therein. The necessary stimulus to exer tion was thus supplied. The humblest farmer on the estates on which the principle was recognised was well aware that he would receive full justice and protection ; that he was securely placed in the per. manent occupation of his holding, and with that confidence,:with or without a !ease, "he proceeded with improvements and applied his industry in every form by which his comforts or his profits could be increased." He had a feeling of "property" that in duced him to spare no pains in the cultivation of his tenement, and thus arose the production of superior crops from inferior lands. Beholding such auspicious results from the opera tion of "tenant right" in the districts in which it was fully established, Mr. CRAWFORD has endeavoured zealously and indefatigably to extend its blessings throughout the entire kingdom. He maturely and attentively considered the effects of the landlord and tenant law as administered in the other provinces, and he found that the system as directly and palpably led to the manifold evils that are so manifest to the most superficial observer. " Middle- men" sprung up in rank luxuriance, whose only object was to extort the highest possible amount of rent from the miserable occupiers ; a ruinous com petition for land was excited, from the dearth of other employment. To obtain a piece of land on any terms was the aim of the starving peasant, and for that purpose he readily promised a rent which it was impossible for him to liquidate. In abundant seasons he might contrive to pay a large instalment, and to retain a scanty subsistence of the coarsest and meanest food for the support of himself and family ; but even with average crops he speedily fell into arrears which he could never hope to satisfy. The moment the harvest was gathered in, or any stock was placed upon the holding, it was immediately distrained, and heavy costs were superadded to the enormous amount of rent. No improvement could be attempted, no evidence of superiority to his fellows exhibited, for such would be the signal for his eviction, the griping middle man supposing that a higher rent could be obtained for a tenement where the holder could achieve such unusual success. It is by no means surprising tha under such a system, sloth and negligence should take the place of activity and forethought; that energy and industry should be altogether wanting, where all the benefits thereof would be enjoyed by others, who were regarded as natural enemies. But the peasant did not relinquish the struggle; he was contented to live in poverty and misery, provided he could only live, and of that he had at least a chance, so long as he could retain pos- session. Craft and cunning were opposed to legalised tyranny and oppression; the middleman was humoured and cajoled so long as it was possible, and ultimately set at defiance; crops were frau- dulently removed to avoid distraint, and illega organizations and confederacies were entered into, in order to obtain the protection which the law did not afford. A reign of terror was established—an agrarian: code enacted, under which many victims were sac rificed—landlords, agents, and incoming tenants were murdered without remorse. The bad spirit got abroad, and the best disposed landlords, who would have treated their tenantry with kindness and consideration, were dealt with M the same man ner as the most cruel and unrelenting. The evil seed had been sown by the wayside and an abundant crop of weeds and thorns sprung up. Society be came disorganized, the entire peoplo demoralized, and we have witnesEed the result in the destitution and s Liarare s - tpi.mT-Ns t cunt allu ii)to do; THE SUN, LONDON, misery, the fraud and violence, the insecurity of tenure, and the insecurity of life in Ireland. Such a state of things cannot be remedied in a mo• ment. It has been the work of ages, and years at least must elapse before we can attain a sound and prosperous condition. Confidence is a plant of slow growth, and that must be fully established between landlord and tenant before we can even hope for the regeneration of Ireland. But the attempt must be made, and that speedily, for every day's delay will only increase the difficulty of the task, and a per sistence in the present course will only lead to the destruction of the Irish people—the depopulation of the country. Under such circumstances, Mr. CitAwroaD has addressed an appeal to his brother legislators Against the extermination of his unfortu nate countrymen,* in which he offers many valuable suggestions for the amelioration of [reland and the improvement of the condition of its inhabitants. We cannot now enter into a consi deration of his propositions, further than to say that they appear to be practicable, and surely the experi ment would be well worthy of a trial that afforded my reasonable prospect of the solution of the Irish difficulty. On English legislators rests the responsi bility of providing suitable remedies for the existing state of things, and surely they will not hesitate to avail themselves of Mr. CRAWFORD'S great experience; or at least they will bestow a calm and attentive perusal on his propositions, and reflect maturely before they despise or neglect his warnings. * " Depopulation not Necessary.", By William Shar man Crawford, EN., M.P. ruE FRENCH REPUBLIC We have received the Paris papers of yesterday. The proceedings in the National Assembly of Wednesday were of an interesting character, and show that the new Ministry has, as we stated yester day, secured the support of a working majority; as a proof of which we need merely announce the fact that the Finance Minister has carried his budget by a majority of 392 to 236; showing that the Ministerial majority on this, which is pre eminently a question of confidence, amounts to 156. The proceedings commenced with the presentation of a Bill by the Minister of War for a vote of 38,000,000 f. not provided for in the: budget ; after a short discussion the Bill was agreed to. It is under stood that the sum is demanded to defray the addi tional expenses of the Roman expedition. M. FOULD, the Minister of Finance, then ascended the tribune, and read the following financial state ment : The Assembly and the country expect that the new Cabinet should explain its thoughts on the situation of the finances, and on the system which it proposes to foil. w for the administration of that important part of the public service. It is a duty for us not to delay making that statement. That duty I come here to fulfil. If good political conduct brings forth goed finences, these latter also have at certain periods an incontestable action on the policy of the Government. In these latter days considerable efforts have been made to modify and destroy the regime of our taxes; attacking by turns all oar indirect taxes, the parties so acting did not con ceal their object, to repair a pretended inequality in the public charges. They aimed at displeci ng th e general burden, and throwing it on capital and landed property. These efforts soon produced their effects; they ales' med the country, destroyed confidence, checked business, and gave a dreadful blow to public and private property. Such a line of policy cannot be ours. The new Government repudiate such insensate theories. In its opinion the organization of the finances, which goes back to the first republic, owes its firm constitution to the immortal author of our code, being in harmony with the institutions and wants of our society, such as it has issued from the Revolution of 1789. In that system, property being accessible to all, and being divided equally amongst the members of families, a fair balance is established in the general taxation. The landed pro prietors are not freed from the indirect taxes ; and these latter, in weighing on the generality of the nation, cause all the citizens to contribute to the expense of the Ad ministration. We desire to maintain these fundamental principles, at the same time that we introduce such amelio rations as experience points out. We hope, by certain mo difications in our indirect taxes, to obtain better receipts; that result will enable us to alleviate certain sufferings, and to give satisfaction to well-founded complaints. In pursuing that object, which is at present the object of OUT studies and efforts, we shall not lose sight of the fact, that it is the interest of all to diminish the charges which, weighing too heavily on land, keep down the in crease of agricultural produce: by it also we procure calm to the country, profoundly disturbed for nearly two years by the violent attacks in the streets, and by the subversive ideas which have endeavoured to penetrate {cite our institutions. We are now about to expose to you the situation of the budget, the wants of the Trea sury, and the means by which we shall propose to you to provide for them. The decouverts of the budget are, as you are aware, the principal cause of the floating debt, and ought to principally call for your attention. The old decouverts of 1846 and 1847, put down in the last table. emetic() at 257,650,000 f., hare not been varied since the publication of that document. It is different for 1848. The situa tion has improved since my honourable predecessor put down the deficiency at 72 millions. On the one side, an increase of 20 millions realised in the receipts, anal on the other a diminution of 33 millions in the expenses, permit us to value the deficit of this year at the reduced amount of 19,129,941 f. The provisions relative to the budget of 1849 are, on the contrary, far below the results known. The supplementary credits voted and to be voted make the difference between the surplus and ex penditure 287,617,4131. The whole of the dccouverts for which the Treasury has to provide for the interior service of 1849 amount to 534,148,0001. The year 1850 modi fies that situation. We are about to examine this in a Few words. In the exposé des motifs for the budget of that year my predecessor gave as his provisions an ex cess of 7,543,0001. To arrive at that result he had re course to the following expedients :—The accumulation of the rentes purchased by the sinking fund, or coming from the consolidation of the annual reserves ; the mainte nance of the duty on potable liquors ; te appointment of certain new taxes; and, above all, a new income tax; the separation of the budget of extraordinary works, and the constitution, to meet them, of a special service. The Act relative to rente for the sinking fund has our full approbation. Whatever may be the desire of the new Government to take off charges from the tax-payers, we are obliged to demand, like our predecessors, from the intelligent patriotism of the Assembly and country, the re-imposition of the duty on potable liquors for 1850. —(Loud disapprobation on the Left.) But by a Bill which we are about to present to you, we shall propose to you to name a special committee of inquiry, charged to examine the question, and the vices which it is re proached with in the mode of collection.—(Renewed disapprobation on the Left.) That is one of the diffi culties, to remove which the co-operation of all opinions and talents is indispensable. The task falls alike within your duties and your attributions, and we trust will put an end to the present imperfec tions of the system. We withdraw the Bill to establish an income-tax.—(Some movement on the Left.) That tax, the extreme resource of distressed Governments, is in its nature vexatious, and partakes of the inquisition, which always causes discontent. The Council-General opposed this measure, and we trust that the same feeling here will justify our withdrawal of the Bill. The income tax was down in the previsions of my predecessor for 60 millions. - That resource must be replaced, if we do not desire to see 1850 marked by a new deficiency. We shall be happy to be able to effect it by certain economies and certain changes of taxation. The Minister of War has conceived a plan by which the supplementary credits, which might have amounted to 30 or 40 millions, shall be suppressed. That plan, laid before the committee of the budget, shows that there will be a diminution of ex penses of 8,500,000 f., and of 16,000,000 f., if circum stances permit it. The speedy return of our army from Rome will give a reduction of 8,000,0001. The Minister of Marine proposes a reduction of 6,000,000 f., and the Minister of the Interior for the reduction of the Guard Mobile 2,500,000 f., and in the fund to foreign re fugees 300,0001., indepently of other reductions which the Government may effect. Tho Honourable Gentleman then went on to say that there would be no loan, in consequence of these ameliorations. A modifi cation would be effected in the registration dues, which would produce an increase of receipts of 21 millions. The post-office receipts would be increased by an aug mentation for un-prepaid letters, giving nearly seven millions more. The Government hoped that if the loan of 100 millions from the Bank was not paid back during the year 1850, the expenditure and receipts would be balanced. But nothing could be effected if peace were not kept abroad and order at home. The receipts at present were gradually improving, and nothing seemed to lead to the idea that the increasing prosperity of the country would be checked. All these things being con sidered, the Government; thought with confidence that the decouvert would not be increased during the year 1850. The Honourable Gentleman concluded by pro posing, in the name of the President of the Re public, Bills to withdraw the duty on potable liquors, to with draw the Bill on the income-tax, to increase the postage of letters in certain cases, and an increase of Sc. on the four contributions.—(Movement.) From the above statement it appears that the new Ministry have abandoned the idea of imposing an income tax, which was entertained by the former Ministry, and that there will be no loan, the Minister trusting to the continuance of the duty on potable liquors, to the increase on the furniture and other taxes, and to an increase of five centimes on the postage of letters, to carry him through 1850. A proposition was made by the Opposition to refer the budget to a special committee, which was re- jetted, as we have before stated, by a majority of 156, consequently the statement is referred directly to the standing committee on the budget. The funds rose to 90f. 50c. at the Bourse when the contents of the budget were known, and closed at 90f. 40c.; they had fallen on the advent of the present Ministry to office to 86f. 80c. M. DROUIN DE L'HuYs has arrived in Paris. There is no truth in the report of his recal from the English Embassy, although it is considered not improbable that he may be offered the portfolio of Foreign Affairs, should M. DE RAYNEYAL refuse to join the Ministry. General PEPE arrived in Paris on Wednesday. The state prisoners who were condemned at Ver sailles, have been removed to Doullins. The following paragraph appears in the Euene enent " Austria, Russia, and Prussia have addressed a de mand to the French Government to cooperate in im posing on the Swiss Confederation the expulsion of all political refugees who have fixed their residence there." The PRESIDENT of the Republic gave an audience, on Wednesday afternoon, to several Italian Cardinals who have lately arrived in Paris. " We are assured," says La Presse, " that this morn ing in the committee on petitions there was for a moment a majority of 10 to 5 in favour of referring to the Council of Ministers a petition which demanded an appeal to the people on the question of the form of government. It appears, however, that the minority at length succeeded in impressing the majority with some common sense, and that they divided equally on the subject." The Delats says :—" M. VALLET Consul of France at Megador, has just arrived in Paris. It appears certain that before leaving Morocco he had obtained all the satisfaction which he had demanded, and that the customary salutes had been exchanged between the forts and the French ships." "It is positively stated," says the Debate, " that the Minister of War, when present before the com mittee on the budget, the day before yesterday, said that the French fleet, which had left Malta for Smyrna, had received orders to return to Toulon in conse quence of the pacific conclusion of the differences be tween Tut key and Russia." The Moniteur Algerien of the 10th, states that General HERBELLON was actively engaged in preparing for the attack on Zaatcha. It was expected that by the 12th or 13th inst, he would have assembled a force of 11 ; 000 men, and would have his batteries and approaches ready. The cholera, which had not mrde its appearance beyond Constantine, had attacked some of the columns advancing to reinforce General HERBELLON. The division of Colonel CAUROBERT, when marching from Amaule, hid lost 60 men. A private letter of the same date states that M. PIERRE BONAPARTE, at the head of a battalion of the Foreign Legion, had made an attack on a small hsour to the south-west of Zaatcha, but that he had been obliged to return without accomplishing his mission. The Toulonnais says :—" The steam-corvette the Veluce has arrived in Toulon from Civita Vecchia, hleh it left on the 6th of November with dispatches of pressing importance for the Government. We are assured that General RosToLAN earnestly begs the Ministry to hasten the departure of the general officer who is to replace him at the head of the expe ditionary army in Italy. The little Spanish corps stationed in the Roman states is in absolute want of everything; recently a French battalion, on passing through one of the places occupied by the Spaniards we.re so touched with compassion at the distress of the poor wretches, that they gave them their pro visions." The Constitutionnel of yesterday says :-" We can confidently announce that the affair with Morocco is terminated, and that every satisfaction has been given t;) France."

The following is the reply of his Imperial High ness : " Mr. Donelson,—ln receiving from your hands, Monsieur le Ministre, the letters of coca! which termi nate your mission to the Central Power of Germany, I am pleased to recognise the good relations which, resting upon mutual and permanent interests, have specially caaracterieed the intercourse of the United States end the government with which I have been provisionally charged by the people and princes of all Gr-rmany. I sccept, with gratitude, the wishes you offer for the happiness and well-being of my great country. The most intimate ties of inlere►t and extraction unite it to yours, which marches to its high destinies accompanied by our prayers for its constantly increasing prosperity. I cannot take leave of you, Monsieur le Ministre, without expressing to you my full and entire satisfaction at the loyal, felicitous, and obliging manner with which you have acquitted !yourself, at all times and all places, of the mission which has been intrusted to you near n.,,y person and my government."—Galigriani. SPAIN. Madrid journals of the 10th have arrived. The motion of OLOZAGA for the production of papers relating to the foreign policy was rejected by the Chamber of Deputies by a majority of 107 to 29. The most remarkable speech during the discussion was that of Senor EscosußA, the leader of the " Na tional" party. He said, that he and the whole Pro gressista party deplored the last French Revolution, which had thrown the cause of liberty back in Europe for fifty years. He strongly denounced the Roman intervention ; and, with reference to the English question, hoped that no mere feeling of amour propre would prevent a renewal of relations. Referring to the late Ministerial changes, he reminded General NARVAEZ that the proceeding by which his Cabinet fell on the night of the 18th ult. was only a repeti tion of what tool; place towards himself and colleagues on the night of the 3d October, two years before. (Senor EscosuaA was Home Minister in the Goyena Cabinet when upset by the intrigue in which Ge nerals NARVAEZ, SERRANO, and Ros DE OLIN() were the principal actors.) In the COUrao of ea. .ating .LIDAL, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, officially announced that orders had been given for the return of the Spanish expedi tionary force from Italy. A proposition of much importance, signed by several members, was then handed to the President of the Chamber. Irs object was to require that, in future, the Basque provinces should pay the ordinary con tributions to the State and furnish their contingent of men to the conscription, in the same manner as the other provinces of Spain, front which the Biscayners have hitherto been exempt in consequence of their ancient fueros (privileges). It is said that the Go vernment is not altogether opposed to the proposition, which, if seriously entertained, will give rise not only to warm debates in the Cortes, but to discontents in the Basque provinces, which may end in an outbreak. On the accession of the QUEEN, and during the regency of CHRISTINA, an attempt was made to de prive the Basques of their fueros when they rose as one man, and Don CARLos, taking advantage of the movement in favour of the fueros, threw himself among them as the defender of the fueros, and hence the Carlist war, which, so long as it was a war in de fence of the fueros, endangered the throne of ISA BELLA, but which was speedily brought to an end when the Government of Madrid consented to observe the fueros.

Galignani s Messenger publishes the following address of the American Minister to his Imperial Highness the Archduke JOHN, on the occasion of the presentation of the letters of recal which terminated the mission of the United States at Frankfort, on the 2d of this month ; also the reply of his Imperial Highness : .6 Your Imperial Highness,—l comply with the in structions of the President of the United States, in presenting the letters of recal that terminate the mis sion with which I have been honoured near your Impe rial Highness. " It is a source of great satisfaction to me on this occasion to fed justified in saying that, throughout the eventful scenes to which the Central power has been exposed, your Imperial Highness has preserved the friendship and goodwill of both the Government and the people of the United States. The obstacles to the at- iein - ment of the desired union of the German States have not yet been entirely removed, but they have been di minished, and the belief is entertained that they will ultimately disappear before that spirit of compromise which your Imperial Highness so earnestly recommended at the commencement of the Central Power, and has since so faithfully observed. "The United States sympathise deeply with every move ment which aims at the establishment of representative constitutional government. This sentiment is their in heritance, and they trust that their national history is a proof that it is compatible with a just respect for the rights of all other nations, and for the steady support everywhere of those principles of moderation and jus tice without which no Government can sec ure th e happiness of th e p eo pl e . This sentiment was awakened in a most lively manner when your Imperial Hi g h ness became a mediator between the princes and people of Germany, and as th e d e positary of their mutual con fidence designated a course of action which was cal culated to disarm existing agitations of all that was dangerous in them as rash innovation, at the same time that it might preserve all that they contained useful as reform, and natural as the expression of political progress. In this difficult and arduous peel. tion it was not expected that the new institutions aimed at by Germany would be easily or immediately obtained. All that was hoped was that the building should be commenced, and that the workmen it should bo fur nished with the means to proceed with as fast as those means could be supplied by the voluntary and peaceable contributions of the various members of the confederacy. It is this hope which your Imperial Highness has known how to sustain, and in honour of which the republi cans of America and the fri e nds of constitutional liberty in Europe may cordially unite. " The new Central Power just formed will be shortly installed. In expressing a hope that its labours may be crowned with success, and that a permanent government may be framed in which - all Germany, as one gr ea t nation, will have a common organ , taking charge of foreign relations and of general interior concerns, I a m confident that I cannot give a better evidence of my friendship to the true and lasting interests of Germany, or make a more acceptable offering to the patrioti c wishes and eminent serv i ces o f y ou r Imperial Highness. " In taking leave of your Imperial Highness, all ow me to add an expression of my gratitude for the favour I have personally received, and the assurance that I shall carry with me to the United States a sincere desire to see the interests of the Germans and Americans, who ' are in so many respects the same People; cemented by an PRUSSIA. The Second Chamber, in its sitting of the .1.1 . 213, adopted the 11th Article of the Constitution, relating to public worship, with an amendment to the effect that the Christian religion shall continue to serve as the basis of civil institutions in relation to public worship. During the recent visit of the King of PRUSSIA to Breslau, the association of workmen presented an address to his MAJESTY, which he received with great kindness, and replied to in a manner which drew from the deputation the warmest expressions of gratitude. The Swabian Mercury announces that the conven tions for the cession to Prussia of the Principalities of Hohenzollern have been concluded and ratified. The populations of the Principalities received with joy their union with Prussia. The fetes in commemoration of the death of Ron ERT BLum had passed off quietly in those places where they had been permitted to be celebrated. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. The Faedrelandet of Copenhagen states that Austria and Prussia have proposed to Denmark to enter into negotiations for deciding on the relations of Holstein with Germany, and have recognised the right of the KING to put down the insurrection in Schleswig without foreign intervention. The liamburgh Correspondent of the 12th says a deputation was expected shortly at Berlin from Schleswig, to demand in the name of the German inhabitants of the Duchies that the Sovereigns of Germany shall cease to interfere in the Danish ques tion, and leave to them its settlement, for which they believe themselves to be sufficiently strong. The Volkshalle says that the Prussian Government had solicited the mediation of Austria with the Ministry of the empire to permit the frigate Gefion to be transferred to Swinernunde under the Prussian flag, but that the Ministers of the empire had refused, and also will not consent that Prussia shall cause part of the German fleet to enter in that port, but wishes the fleet to be placed at the disposition of the Federal Commission that will soon enter into office. BRUNSWICK. On the 9th the States of Brunswick re-assembled, after three months' prorcgation. Among the Bills pree-ented to them is one providing for the election of members of the Diet of the Empire. AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY. The Austrian Government has ordered, that for the more prompt and general information of the public, the prices of the funds and other securities shall be transmitted every day by telegraph to Trieste, Lay bach, Graetz, Brunn, and Prague. Tue Gazette of Breslau publishes a letter from Vienna of the 9th, which says—" The Archdukes Louis and JOHN have sent in their resignations, the first as Commander-k-Chief of the Artillery, the second as Chief of the Academy of Engineers. This last resignation has occasioned great surprise." The Vienna journals of the 10th announce the arrival at Semlim, from Widdin of the Magyar re fugees who had accepted the Austrian amnesty. SAXON Y. The King of SAXONY has just granted an amnesty to the persons condemned for political offences against him personally, and also to those who were in prison on the 31st ult., awaiting trial for political offences. SWITZERLAND. On the 13th inst., at Bale, M. EECHER opened the session of the Federative Assembly, in a dis course full of the most ardent and lively sentiments of patriotism. The President informed the Assembly of the important matters that would be submitted to them. TURKEY. Accounts have been received from Constantinople to the Ist. On the 30th ult. the Dragon steam-frigate arrivod there with dispatches ftum Admiral PART:Ea for Sir ~.,:11RATFORD CANNING. The British fleet was then at anchor at Besica Bay, and would remain there until the arrival of the dispatches from FUAD EFFENDI. Should the intelligence from St. Petersburgh be un favourable, the fleet would immediately proceed to Constantinople. The naval force at Besica Bay consists of the Caledonia, Queen, Howe, Bellerophon, Prince Regent, and the Rosamond steamer. On the 26th ultimo Lieutenant-Colonel TOWNLEY, a Queen's Messenger, arrived in 13 days from London. Colonel TOWNLEY was the bearer of most important dispatches from her MAJESTY'S Government. In a short time after his arrival at the British Embassy at Therapia, Sir STRATFORD CANNING proceeded to the residence of REscHru PASHA, the Grand Vizier, where he remained for several hours in conference with his HIGHNESS and with ALI PASHA, the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Sir STRATFORD CANNING COM municated to the heads of the Turkish Govern• went the welcome intelligence that the British Cabinet had unanimously determined to form a defensive alliance with the PORTE in case of any attempt at an invasion of the Ottoman territory by Russia. At the same time the Ambassador gave it to be distinctly understood that the English Government was most anxious for peace, and that every endeavour should be made consistent with the dignity of the Turkish Empire to bring the present difference to an amicable termination ; that no mea sure should be taken to provoke hostilities ; that the Porte should await calmly the result of FuAD Er FENDI'S interview with the Emperor NICHOLAS ; but that at the same time every precaution should be taken to prevent any aggressive movement on the part of Russia, should the CZAR determine upon adopting a hostile line of policy. Sir STRATFORD spoke of the arrival of the British fleet in the Archi pelago, and of the effect which such a demonstration must have upon the councils of the EMPEROR. It is said that in this conference the subject was also dis cussed of bringing the force under Admiral PARKER to Constantinople, and that it is a proceeding which subsequently met with the approval of the SULTAN. A firman, it is rumoured, has been sent to the Admiral, authorising him to pass the Dardanelles, with t h e whole force under his command, whenever the British Ambassador shall think his presence neces sary at Constantinople. On the 26th ult. General AUPICK had also an interview with RESCHID PACHA and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, in which he assured them of the determination of the French Go vernment to give an armed support to Turkey in case of a Russian invasion, and that the fleet under Ad miral PARSEYAL DESCHENES would co-operate with the forces of the SULTAN in case of emergency. General AUPICK also spoke of peace as more desirable than war, and he added that the alliance of France would be continued as long as the Porte acted in the same spirit as that which had hitherto marked its conduct in the present question ; but that if Turkey should be guilty of any wanton provocation towards Russia, that then the Government of the Republic would consider themselves justified in withdrawing their support. A dispatch from FUAD EFFENDI, dated St. Peters burgh, October 10, had been received by the Minis ter for Foreign Affairs. FUAD EFFENDI writes that his reception by the Russian Minister was most courteous. M. DE NESSELRODE said that the EMPEROR was very much grieved to hear that the SULTAN had refused his request for the extradition of Polish refugees, but that his Imperial Majesty would honour FUAD EFFENDI with an interview on the 12th of October. ITALY. The Piedmontese Gazette has the following from Rome, dated the sth :—" It is asserted that the POPE gave the following answer to the deputation of the Municipal Commission of Rome We hesitated to return to our dominions so long as in France the dis cussion about the independence of our will was still alive; but now that a happy solution seems on the point of putting an end to every doubt on the subject, we hope that we shall very shortly be enabled to return into the bosom of our Rome.' To this declaration the POPE added some words expressive of his emotion on hearing that the good people of Rome ardently desired his return. The police continues its arrests. Last night M. CALANDRELLI, the ex-Minister of War under the Republic, was arrested. A terrible struggle took place between CA LANDRELLI and the policemen, but the former was at last overpowered. 'The base coin of the Republic is to be out of circulation ten days hence, and yet Govern ment continues to pay with it. It is understood a consistory is to be held at Portici one of these days, which the Holy Father is to deliver a political In the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies of Turin of the 9th, the President of the Council presented a Bill for concluding a treaty of commerce with Tuscany, in virtue of which the differential rights reserved by the treaty of the sth of June, 184, are rholislied.: The Opinione of Turin of the 10th states that the Austrians intend establishing a camp of observation at Piacenza. Field-Marshal WIMPFFEN left Bologna on the 6th. The arrival of more Austrian troops for the Marches was expected daily. _ _ The Nazionale of Florence of the 7th states that General D'ASPRE left that city on the preceding night. _ _ _ The Legge of Turin of the 10th states from Naples that orders have been sent to all the intendants of the frontiers and sea-coasts to arrest a party of 450 Neapolitans, who were shortly expected to land. They are believed to have served at Venice. As soon as they are captured they are to be deposited in one of the islands and then sent to the Levant. MONEY and COMA/KRUM, NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. There was no Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday. The Corn trade in Mark-lane is steady to day, at about Monday's rates. The colonial produce markets have been freely sup plied this week, and prices have ruled somewhat in favour of buyers. The Amsterdam stock market on Wednesday was well supported, the Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. being 53k; Spanish Three per Cents. were 26 13-16; French Three per Cents. a ere firmer, atal Russian stuck was supported. At Fraekfiat, on the 13th inst., Austrian Bonds were 871,-, and at Berlin, on the same day, Prus sian Three-and a-Flalf per Cents. realised 88g. The accounts from Paris still read very satisfactorily upon the eubjc ct of M. Foulu's financial plans, but we greatly fear that the expectations formed by many will be disappointed. M. Fould has undoubted ability, and we may perhaps give him credit for patriotism, but it is scarcely to be conceived that he can, as by the stroke of a magic wand, relieve France of its financial difficulties, or of the imposts which M. Passy, after mature delibe ration, appeared to regard as necessary for the establish meat of cqui.ibrium between the income and.expenditure. A way in which the Government of Louis Napoleon might accomplished a great saving, would be by the reduction of the army, and the state of Europe will best show whether this can, be effected. When we reflect on the amount of the deficiency in the French receipts, we should be almost inclined to despair, but for the known abeundieg riches and elastic resources of the nation. Still a country cannot for ever pursue the career of de ficiency and borrowing. A Government, seemingly far more stable than that of Louis Bonaparte, crumbled beneath the weight of an accumulating debt, and it will be the primary duty, as it is the true policy of the President, to address himself to the money question, the vulgar but practical question of taxation and expenditure. There can be neither safety for himself, nor prosperity for the people until this is done, and any ephemeral movement in the Stock Mar , ket, motived by mere speculators, will serve but to excite falq, hopes, and he inevitably succeeded by deeper dis gust and despondency. Many already blame M. Fould, and consider that as a capitalist he may make it answer his purpose to excite fluctuation, and stimulate a buoy ant tone. We trust such is, how ever, not the case, and that we shall continue to hear a favourable report from Paris. The elements are at hand for a better state of things, and the im provement in trade throughont France is most decided, while capital everywhere is being more freely employed, thanks to the revival of confidence.
