Since the recess the House of Commons bas been occupied in the necessary but by no means agreeable duty of voting Supplies for the current year. It would appear, from the thin attendance of Members, and from the dispatch with which thousands and tens of thousands were ' voted almost rub ailentio, that the popular representatives con sidtred the proceedings as a mere matter of form, and as if nothing were required but that a sufficient number should be present to form a House, and to assent to the demands of Ministers, what<oever they might be. The intense anxiety for financial reform outside the walls of Parliament seems to be altogether forgotten, or the approach of the period when Honourable Gentlemen will have to render accounts of their legislative stewardships to their respective constituencies. If the amounts so sanctioned were to be levied directly on the possessors of accumulated and realised fortunes, a greater degree of anxiety would be manifested to reduce the expenditure within reasonable limits, and to avoid the errors and mistakes that are committed every year, and which so materially increase the na tional burdens. But, unfortunately, while so large a portion of the public revenue is obtained from the proceeds of indirect taxation, while the great body of the people, six-sevenths of whom are wholly unre presented, are supplying the means for defraying the outlay, a carelessness and apathy will be mani fested similar to that which was so painfully per ceptible on Thursday and Friday evenings. It would be impossible within the limit of a single article to direct the public attention to the numerous items sanctioned, almost any one of which would afford abundant grounds for comment and discussion. We find the dockyard expenditure still kept up, to afford ample room for those costly and useless experi ments, the waste of labour and materials that would speedily reduce any private firm, however opulent, to bankruptcy. The constant alterations and con versions that are every day taking place, for which no reason can be assigned, unless that it was essential to find employment of some description or other for the artificers engaged in the yards, are still to be con tinued. It is true that there has been a reduction on the original estimate of last year, but it should not be forgotten that the amount thus demanded wa s very much beyond the usual average, and that even the present estimate considerably . exceeds the claims of former years that 1-1%% . i .pere is an increase of 220,0001. or 230,0001. per an _ - -xium for wages and stores beyond the sums requ i red Par these purposes some eight or ten years since. Rii i ese charges, which should be closely scrutinised, - were sanctioned without a division, it being evident thsit such tt proceeding would only have involved a . 4 waste of public time without any beneficial result. 1 In the next vote, however, a greater degree of I economy was manifested. The pension of the widow of a Colonel in the army was withhe d, because her deceased husband had been something above the regulation age at the time of their marriage, This unfortunate lady has been suffering the deepest distress ; but Ministers should prove themselves vigilant guardians of the public purse, and although nothing could be alleged against her character or conduct, and it could not be asserted that she was not a fitting object for the public bounty, she is left to sustain the privations and misery incident to poverty that a few pounds per annum may be saved to the national exchequer. The Ministers, in this instance, seem to have reversed the rule of the followers of ROBIN HOOD, who, according to WAMBA, set off a thousand bezants, taken from a fat abbot by a crown, given to a mendicant friar. They, on the contrary, justify 220,0001. per annum wasted in the Dock yards, by 701. or 801. per annum abstracted from a destitute and helpless widow. Again, we find, after that splendid exhibition of thrift and parsimony, new votes for Buckingham Palace. No less than 763,2961. have been expended on that precious specimen of British architectural taste, and yet it is still admittedly unfit for a residence for our SOVEREIGN, while new sums are annually absorbed in repairs and alterations. Windsor Castle, too, it appears, has cost no less than 1,516,000/. within the last quarter of a century, but these trifling sums can easily be spared, for Mrs. UNIACKE'S pension has been saved to the nation, through the prudence of the Se cretary at War. We need scarcely allude to the marble arch, which was erected at a cost of 80,0001. some few years since, and about which all that the Chancellor of the Exchequer was enabled to state was, " that it was quite clear that it could not stand where it was, but that where it was to be put to was not quite decided," to show that useless expenditure and undoing work recently executed is not peculiar to the Dockyards. However, it would be wrong to cavil at such a trifle, when the claim of a Colonel's widow for the usual pension has been disallowed. The most important, perhaps, of all the sugges tions, and that which touched the Government most closely, was the proposition of the Hon. Member for Oxfordshire for a general reduction of official sala ries. A stronger earnest could not be afforded of the determination to suit the national expenditure to the altered circumstances of the times, and the in creased value of money, than a beginning with the incomes of the heads of the different depart ments. It is, unhappily, but too notorious that the effect of the Acts of 1819 and 1844 has been to increase the value of money by at least 20 or 30 per cent. All the necessaries and luxuries of life may be obtained at much lower prices than was for merly the case, and surely Sir CHARLES WooD, who lauds those statutes as the perfection of legislative wisdom, cannot conscientiously receive a much higher remuneraticn for his very valuable (!) services than it was the intention of the Legislature to bestow—and that increase occasioned by the very Act, in favour of which and notwithstanding its vir tual suspension, he obtained the report of his judi ciously selected Committee, in opposition to the great body of the evidence adduced before them. It would, at least, exhibit the disinterestedness of Ministers in a stronger light if they refused to benefit personally, in consequence of the code that is so loudly and io justly complained of by the community in general. Anything which can at all tend to diminish the chance of shipwreck in an age of rapid navigation, cannot but be deserving of the most serious atten tion, especially in a great maritime country like England. A remarkable pamphlet, having precisely this tendency—namely, the diminution of danger to vessels traversing the deep seas—has very recently been published from the manuscripts of a man whose name will ever be ranked among our most illustrious navigators. The circumstances under which this ex traordinary treatise has appeared are somewhat ana logous to those which accompanied the publication of another pamphlet written by a distinguished member of the other chivalrous profession. Almost immediately before Sir CHARLES NAPIER started for the Asiatic peninsula to take the supreme command of the British Indian army—the " Letter" was printed in which he explained his project for the improve ment, or rather for the total re-organization of the baggage corp. Almost immediately before the depar ture of the nephew of Sir J. Ross to the Arctic Circle, for the purpose, if possible, of rescuing the survivors of the last expedition from destruction—the "Treatise" appeared in which he has expounded his theory of the Deviation of the Mariner's Compass, and has es tablished several very secure and reliable rules for its correction.* Now different, essentially dif ferent as the two schemes are in themselves—in their tendency they are very little short of being identical. The soldier has endeavoured to develope the military, and the sailor the maritime system. One has evinced a solicitude to diminish the perils of a cam paign, and in so doing to facilitate the tactics of war ; the other has striven with like ardour to decrease the dangers of a voyage, and, in so doing, to advance the science of navigation. Having already more than once drawn attention to the pamphlet by Sir CHARLES NAPIER, a sentiment of j ustice would impel us to direct general observation also to the pamphlet of Sir JOHN Ross, were we not irresistibly incited to do so, irre spective of all such collateral stimulants, by the sin gular importance of the discoveries disclosed in it, and by that pure and practical philanthropy which has prompted the researches and inspired the treatise of the renowned navigator. Every one in the smallest degree acquainted with the merest outlines of the History of Science is perfectly familiar with the fact that the Deviation of the Mariner's Compass has been numbered among the inscrutable mysteries of Nature, from the period when the polarity of the magnetic needle was first perceived. The phenome non of the deflection of the magnetic needle has been to the science of navigation what the librations of the moon have been to the science of astronomy — truths altogether unfathomable and incomprehensible. At one time, indeed, the hope of satisfactorily ac counting for the deviations of the compass was scarcely less wild and chimerical to all appearance than the hope of finding out a correct system for the discovery of longitude, or of accounting on philosophic and demonstrable grounds for the eccentric orbit of a comet. Ever since the publication, however, of the memoir written by Captain FLINDERS, a memoir which will be found recorded in the Philo sophical Transactions of the Royal Society in 1805, something of a confident expectation has been formed that ultimately the cause of the aberration might be detected. Still, although this expectation has existed we have never yet found ourselves approaching its realization. The theory of FLINDERS in some essen tial particulars was hardly less fanciful and was barely so ingenious as the one propounded in a mo ment of awful emergency by the immortal discoverer of America. Those wbo have ever lingered with breathless curiosity over the biography of CoLumßus, whether they have perused his history in the simple diction of his descendant, or in the eloquent language of WASHINGTON IRVING, can never have lost a recol lection of that incident—How, when threatened with death and mutiny in the midst of the solitude of the Atlantic, the great adventurer retired to his cabin, and there in a few minutes contrived that inimitable hypothesis of the Deviation of the Compass, which, although perceptibly erroneous to the philosopher, was sufficiently specious, in its ingenuity, to dissipate the apprehensions of the insur gent mariners ! Decided as was the step in advance taken by FLINDERS towards the elucidation of this mysterious phenomenon in the needle, it was, never theless, as we have already observed, scarcely of one jot more practical importance than this hypothesis of COLUMBUS. According to the view taken of it by Cap' tain FLINDERS, " the error of variation was produced by the combined force of terrestrial magnetism, and of the ferruginous attraction within the ship." So far the scheme was undoubtedly admirable, and espe cially inasmuch as further experiments cor roborated the accuracy of the opi " nions formed by FLIND E R S . " still, however, as Sir JOHN Ross himself observes in his pamphlet (p. 13), "much more information was wanted re- • " A Short Treatise on the Deviation of the Mariner's Compass; with Rules for it Correction , and Diagrams." By Sir John Ross, C. 8., &C., &c. , C a p Royal Navy. Svo.tain in the Is4l. pp. 40. Pelham Richardson; London, specting this subject, for the purpose of discovering a RULE that would enable us easily and simply to find the true quantity of error in any place and under all circumstances." " A desideratum," says Sir JOHN Ross, further on (p. 14), " which I claim to have completely established during my voyage of discovery in 1818." The Rules here laid down by our eminent navigator are the fruits of his experience. They are no theoretical notions, but facts proven by experiment. Their correctness has been tested again and again, before Sir Jowl Ross has at last ven tured upon the publication of his treatise. To pro claim the importance, the vast national importance, to a maritime country like Britain, of this brief and very simple pamphlet, this pamphlet comprised within forty octavo pages, we need only declare that it does actually establish " rules by which the true course of a ship may, in every position and under all circum stances, be obtained for every point of the com pass." How difficult safe navigation is under exist ing circumstances can be readily demonstrated by the enumeration of such facts as the following—that although about the middle of the sixteenth century (when the deviation was first suspected) it was proved to have an easterly tendency in England and its vicinity, about the year 1658 or 1660 the direction of the needle began to correspond with the meridian, and gradually became more westerly. That of itself indicates that the deviation is liable to fluctuate in regard to Time. Other facts have shown clearly enough that its fluctuation in regard to Place is not less conspicuous. In the publication before us it is clearly laid down that this variation (p. 11) " differs in all parts of the world ;" (p. 17) that it may be altered at pleasure, by placing the compass on the binnacle, by shifting it from side to side, or by placing it amidships half way between the mainmast and the capstan ; and that " the angle of deviation is itself materially affected by light, heat, and cold [by the amount of the ship's attraction, an amount varying of course with different ships, by increase or decrease of variation and dip, by proximity to land or to another ship], as well as by the humidity and density of the atmosphere." Here is surely sufficien to show the almost insuperable obstacles which pre vented Sir J. Ross from arriving at first at any safe or satisfactory conclusion. Here, moreover, is enough in all conscience to show the dangers surrounding the mariner so long as he continues without some such rules as those which are here at length laid down for his future guidance. So great and peculiar is this perilous liability of the best sailor to fall out of his right course, that an occasion is recorded in the life of Lord DE SAUMAREZ, the hero of the Gut of Gib raltar, when the Channel Fleet bore up in a storm for Torbay; at a time when the position of the ships, by means of their reckoning, were six degrees in error ! On that very occasion Sir JOHN Ross, then having charge of the chronometers on board the Hibernia, made an alowance of one point on the east course, and, in consequence of so doing (p. 8), "landfall was made to a mile, after an absence of six weeks, during which time no land had been seen, and the fleet had been chasing in various directions." After quoting thus much, nothing further is necessary to demonstrate, even to the unprofessional reader, the extraordinary advantages of such rules as those here established. For the rest, the Rules themselves being of an en tirely technical description, come less within the pro vince of a public journal than of a professional and scientific treatise. To that treatise, therefore, we confidently and earnestly direct the attention of the Mariners of England. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris papers of Saturday and yesterday. The formation of the new Cabinet is completed, and was officially announced to the Assembly on Satur day by M. ODILON BARROT. The following is the composition of the new Ca binet : M. ODILON BARROT Justice. M. PAssY M. DE FALLOUX Public Instruction. General RULUIERES M. DE TRACY Marine. M. LACROSSE Public Works. The above, it will be seen, were all members of the late Cabinet. The new Ministers are : M. DUFAURE lnterior (in the place of M. Leon Faucher). M. DE TocQuEvira,E Foreign Affairs (in place of M. Drouyn de L'huye). M. LANJUINAIS Agriculture and Commerce (in place of M. Buffet). Marshal BUGEAUD refused to enter the Cabinet unless the command of the National Guards were separated from that of the army, but the PRE SIDENT, or rather M. DE FALLOUT, refused to diminish by one jot or tittle the power of the Legitimatist General CHANGARNIER, and Mar shal BUREAUD consequently does not enter the Cabinet. The department of Foreign Affairs has been refused both by General BEDEAU and M. DE REMUSAT, the Roman question being the difficulty with each. It is said that M. DE FALLOUX has com pletely succeeded in his intrigue as far as the affairs of Rome are concerned, and that General OUDINOT has been ordered to force his way into Rome, and to restore the priestly domination without delay. The PRESIDENT'S Message (which has been drawn up by MM. THIERS and MOLE) is to be delivered to-day. M. DUPIN was on Saturday inaugurated as Presi dent of the Legislative Assembly. The following is the report of the proceedings at the opening of the Assembly : M. de Keratry rosy and said,—Gentlemen Representa tives of the Republic, the honourable selections which you made in yesterday's sitting have led me to desire, even more ardently than before, that the moment should arrive when I might be permitted to resign my tem porary functions into hands of persons more firm, more able, and more exercised than I am. (A voice on the Left—And more impartial.) I have awed according to the measure of the strength which Providence has con ferred upon me.—(Approbation on the Right; ironical laughter on the Left.) God forbid that I should presume to lay down any programme, or trace out any line of conduct in the presence of an Assembly on the oenches of which are seated able men, accustomed to business, who have arriv e d a t t h e hi g hest grades of the civil and military orders, and been honoured over and over again by the confidence of their fellow-citizens.—(Murmurs on the Left.) Certainly, I should never dream of any such presumption. As to you, Monsieur le President, and you, gentlemen secretaries, I have not the slightest doubt that you will worthily answer the expectations of your country, which now calla you by my voice to this chair, and to these seats of honour; they cannot be more fitly occupied. This Noble Chamber—(Loud exclamation on the Lefr.) A voice from the same quarter—we are not now in the Chamber of Peers. M. de Keratry—This Noble Chamber by which you have been selected by a majority—almost unanimous— (lnterruption)—has for pledge your character and the sentiments iu which it intends itself persisting. I have now to call on the members of the definitive bureau to come forward and take their places.—(Hear, hear.) M. Dupin, sen., then ascended the steps leading to the estrade, followed by the members of the bureau. The Honourable Gentleman wore his distinctive ribbon of a Representative of the people, and near it th e l arge cr ochet of a grand cross of the Legion of Honour. The two Presidents interchanged the customary accolade, after which M. de Keratry and the provisional secretaries withdrew, the new comers assuming their places. M. Dupin, sen., then, after taking the chair, rose and said : —Gentlemes and Honourable Colleagues, in dis placing in the chair our honourable senior representa tive, who has fulfilled his difficult functions with so much devoted —(Interruption)—I cannot help making a pre liminary reflection. The office of President of the Na tional Assembly is not merely an immense honour, it is a charge imposing most heavy duties, always difficult to be fulfilled, but particularly so at the period in which we live. As a man belonging to the law I should wish to behold order reigning everywhere, and the regulations a l w ays observed with fidelity.—(Hear.) Independently of the general law which prevails outside, and is obliga tory on us as on all other citizens, each Assembly has its own peculiar laws—the regulations which it imposes on itself, and by which it contracts the obligation to obey itself. The existing regu l at i ons, the viola of which always leads t o di sor d er , an d viola tion t he strict and impartial execution of which is confided to t p r esident, will immediately call f or your a However i n order to decide what mo difi cat i ons t en th ri e on, decidesho wn the o be p inecessary.nt, shall en the at e A xp s-serience has em bl map with all the firmness I po s sess , to have them strictly o bserved, and I wil l em p lo y all t ae force which ss to maint ain them durin g the continuan ce , for tunately excee dingly short, of my laborious function,..— preosssents Voice on th e Left—" Vie hope so.") The tribu ne , gen tlemen,ough t to be free—free for all; the min ority has an interest in such being the case even more than the majority. B ah sides must conse q uentl y le arn t , ) listen with cal m, even to what may b . e disnleasi ng — to ex press ourselve s with consideration ter others, and to submit afterwards with resignation to votes which ac quire the character of law , and consequently are inve s t e d with all the force of national sovereignty. Gentlemen and honourable colleagues, the acts of this Legislative Assembly must power fully influence the destinies of the country. Constituted as we are as a Republic, let us not forget the union of the great powers of the state— (Loud interruption on the Left). A Voice from the same quarter—There is only one at present. M. Dupin, senior, in continuation—ls one of the first guarantees of public tranquillity— A Voice on the Left—What do you mean by your great powers? M. Dupin. sen.—l call so those powers which have been elected by universal suffrage, and which emanate I directly from the sovereignty of the people.—(Hear, hear.) Let us not lose sight of these two facts, which are alike certain—the Republic must reassure all inte rests and rights which may be menaced ; but also fac• tions must not be permitted to attack or menace the Republic.—(Murmurs on the Lrft.) Thus, then, may Providence be cur aid. Vive la Rep-üblique! This cry was repeated loudly from (very part of the Assembly. The following official note appears in the illoniteter du Soir and the Patric :—" The National, in an article entitled ' Affaires Italiennes,' affirms that the personal policy of the PRESIDENT of the French Republic seems to tend to complicate the events which are being accomplished in the Peninsula, and in support of this affirmation announces that an emissary of the PRESIDENT has recently been sent off to the French camp, with secret instructions calcu. lated to counteract the too liberal tendencies of M. LESSEPS. These assertions are false and calumnious. We are authorised to contradict them in the most formal manner." The following is the final result of the election for Algeria :—" MM.

FRANKFORT. ADJOURNMENT OF THE ASSEMBLY TO STUTTGARDT. The National German Assembly of Frankfort re solved, on the 30th ult., by 74 votes to 64, that it would remove to Stuttgardt. This resolution was taken after a long and grave debate. The President of the Assembly, M. RELT, and two of the secretaries immediately resigned. The first Vice-President, however, M. LcmE, announced that he would cause the decree of the Assembly to be executed. All the Wurtemburger Deputies, to the surprise of the Assembly, voted against the removal to their capital. The vote was received with most profound silence. The Independance of Brussels says—i• This will be the last sitting held at Frankfort, and the last sitting of the National Assembly ; for at Stuttgardt there will only be the meeting of a party, and it may happen that not one hundred members, the number strictly necessary to take a resolution, will attend. The Assembly has given itself the coup de grace. Its resolution may draw down serious calamities on IVurtemburg, and it is not likely that the Wurte burger Governm en t will approve of it." The Oberpostamts Zeitung publishes the following letter : "In answer to the telegraphic dispatches from Berlin of the 18th and 23d instant, I have received his High ness the Regent's instructions. I am peremptorily in structed to inform you that his Highnesi is indeed resolved to resign his office, but that, as to the time of that resignation, his Highness is t qnally resolved to con sult no other interests than those of Germany. His Highness the R-gent protests that no power on earth is competent to remove him from his post. " GRAEVELL. " Frankfort, 24th May. " To the Prussian Plenipotentiary, M. Kamptz." BADEN, BAVARIA, AND THE PALATINATE. -- An immense p o pular meeting was hold at Rent lingen, in Wurtemberg, on the 28th ult., at which very strong resolutions, calling on the people to arm against Prussia, and on the Wurtemburger Govern ment to support the insurrection in Baden, &c. &c., were adopted. On the next day the Municipal Council of Stuttgardt protested against the violence of these resolutions. The Carlsruhe Gazette: of the 31st, the official organ of the Provisional Government of Baden, con tains an earnest appeal to the French to march to the assistance of the German insurgents. AUSTRIA- The German Reform has letters from Vienna, of the 27th ult., which state that great sensation had been created in the latter city by the unexpected ar rival of Count APPONY of the Austrian Embassy in Paris, owing, as was supposed, to declarations on the Russian intervention made to him by the Minister of Foreign Affairs. The Italians, to the number of 600, who formed part of the Imperialist garrison of Buda, have gone over to the Hungarians. The Cologne Gazette has a letter from Kapolna, of the 22 , 1, which says that, after advancing to within a few leagues of Coimorn, the Russians had suddenly retired; that a part of their forces had taken the road to Poland, while another part had gone towards Transylvania ; so that only 30,000 remained to assist the Austrians. We find no confirmation of this in any other journal, and it is probably unfounded. The Ostdeutsche Post states that the Russians en tered Csernowitz on the 19th ultimo. The Russians have taken upon themselves the administration of the po li ce an d the posts in G a lli c i a an d the Bukow i na. Tne KolnerZettung• has advices f rom Vi enna o f th e captive officers of the l a t e garr i son o f B u d a . 30th ult., stating that lett ers h ave come to that c i ty from lt appears the from these letters that th ese ca pt ure d officers are treated with great ki n d ness . G enera l HENTzt was buried with all military honours. The Hungarians took about 60,000 florins in silver. which were kept at Buda. The garrison of 22 000 men, and 80 officers was conveyed to Debrezin. 83 p i eces of artillery, 1,400 cwt of gunpowder, 2,000 cwt. of saltpetre, and 14,000 muskets fell into the hands of the Hungarians after the capture of Buda. PRUSSIA. The Governments of Prussia, Saxony, and Hano ver, having agreed in the scheme of a Constitu tion, have also established a Provisional Court of the Confederation (or Bundes-Schiedsgericht) for the judicial decision of all questions that may arise before the final settlement of the Constitution between the Powers who are parties to it. This Court is to consist of Imperial judges (or Bundes- Ricldern), of whom Prussia appoints three, Saxony two, and Hanover two. The Court is to hold its sit tings at Erfurt; the Presidency is to be filled by the oldest of the members appointed by Prussia. The States united by the Constitution of the Bund agree to subject themselves to the authority of the Court in the following cases : 1 questions of disp u t es respect i ng pr i vate and r ights of all hind s b etween t h e C on f e d erate d States. "2. Disputes a s to succession to the Throne , rights of governing, and Regency within the same States.

The decre e creat i ng the Court is preceded by an explanation signed by the Ministry, from which the following i s an extrac t : " From the earliest history of Germany we find that the existence of such a superior Court was necessary for the whole German people. It is especially necessary for the smaller States, in which legis lation interferes so much with all private relations. The judicial power of the Emperor in former centu ries was calculated to exerctse a direct influence over the character of the nation. In our times an institutio n o f a s i m ilar kind may serve to establish a uniformity o f l eg i s l at i on in the different states and to equalize th e proceedings o f the law. " From th ese cons id er ations the Confederated Govern. ments regard t h e i nst i tu tion of an Imperial Court, as de fined by necessary and b ene fi c i a l, and have resolved to establish the project of the German Constitutio n, as most a Provisional Court of the Confederation as a prelimi nary step to such a great national institution. " The project which is here annexed contains the agreemeet which has been come to between the Govern ments with regard to the immediate establishment of this tribunal. . . . " They have co ns idered this step as connected with but few difficulties, as it was not necessary to refer it to the legislati on . N o one w ill be coroFelled to appeal to this Court ; on l y the Government and the Princes wi ll have to reco gn i se i t. But t h e y, i n r e cognizing it, will prove that they regard public safety not merely founded on order, but on the moral basis of right. " In adhering strictly to the articles of the project of the Constitution, the Government will, moreover, give a proof that it is their sincere desire to put the Constitu. Lion into operation as soon as possible. " If the Governments have asserted the condition that every 9119 Nill9 requires P 4 44110 is t 9 ?PPIY tc) this Court, they believe that this will likewise meet with ap probation. They entertain the confidence that all German Governments will take the same view of this important subj.ct, end hope that they will find this condition the best mces for the promotion of union, on which will depend the future prosperity of Germany. " The President of the Ilinistly, " Count VON BRANDENBURG." "Berlin, May 30, 1849. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES The Constituent Assembly of Denmark adopted on the 25th ultimo, by 119 votes to 4, a new constitution for the kingdom. We have received our Hamburgh correspondence of the Ist inst. We learn from them that the Kiel papers are rather excited by an English commander (of the war steamer Hecate) having been fired at by the German batteries of Friedrichsort, near that harbour, for having neglected to salute the German flag. The matter passed off without any more serious consequences than the invective and angry declamations of the press and populace of Kiel. All remained quiet at Frcdericia ; in fact, the mi litary operations in Jutland have come to a complete stand-still. The news from Copenhagen is of the 31st ult. The King of DENMARK arrived there on that day to wait for his guests from St. Peer-burgh. The Nye borg papers mention that some Russian land troops, too, are expected, and that quarters are being pre pared for them. ITALY. It appears that M. DE LESSEPS left Rome on the 24th, for the head quarters of General OUDINOT. Before his departure he wrote a letter to the Presi dent of the Roman Constituent Assembly, complain ing that " he had been pointed out already for the daggers of assassins," and offering to guarantee, against all foreign invasion, every portion of the Roman territory which might be occupied by French troops. The French National, in commenting on this strange letter, does not hesitate to declare that M. DE LESSEPS must have been labouring under temporary insanity' at the time be wrote it. The idea that he had already been pointed out for the daggers of assassins, being too absurd to be entertained by any man in his right senses. The Roman Monitore of the 24th announces that Captain DOBROWLOSEI, of the general staff, is commis sioned to organise and command the foreign legion now forming. Two hundred Tuscans had arrived at Rome, to serve under the Republic; many Fiedmon tese tirailleurs have deserted, with arms and baggage, for the same purpose. French subjects were daily dropping in with the same view. The French troops were peacefully encamped in the vicinity of Rome, and did not intercept the communications. The Milan Gazette of the 28th publishes the fol lowing telegraphic dispatch, dated from Mestre, 27th ult. :—" Malghera has fallen, and is occupied by our troops." General D'ASPRE has addressed the following pro clamation to the inhabitants of Florence . " Inhabitants of Florence!—The ties of blood that unite our Sovereign to the Imperial House of my Monarch, the numerous treaties which impose upon his Majesty the Emperor and King my master the duty of protecting the integrity of Tuscany, and of defending the rights of your Prince, have determined Austria to comply with the wish of his Imperial and Royal High ness the Grand Duke, and to put an end to the state of anarchy under which your beautiful country has long been groaning. The faction which oppressed Leghorn has been destroyed by my arms ; and the population, freed from the yoke of rebel hordes, has submitted to its legitimate Sovereign. Being called by your Prince, I now enter your city with my troops, as your friend, as your ally. Join with me in consolidating tranquillity, peace, and order, and permanently restoring concord, the empire of the laws, and those days of happiness for which you were formerly envied by Europe. " The Imperial and Royal General of Artillery com manding the second army corps, "Baron D'AarRE. "Empoli, May 24, 1849." Letters from Florence of the 25th announce the arrival there of the Austrian troops on that day; 20,000 are expected, but only 6,000 will stay ; the rest will march towards the Roman States. A rumour was current that the British Ambassador had applied to the Extraordinary Commissioner, that GUERRAZZI might be delivered up to him. Another rumour stated that a French corps had landed at Porto San Stefano. The new Duke of PARmA has published a procla. mation to his subjects, in which, atter observing that in virtue of his father's abdication by the manifesto of Weisstrop, dated the 14th of March last, he assumes the sovereignty of Parma, under the name of CHARLES 111. of Bourbon, he confirms for the present the Military Provisional Government instituted by his father, and promises to grant a constitution. The Parma Gazette of the 23d announces the nomination of Baron SOLDATI as Minister of Finance. Marquis PALLA VICINI is named Extraordinary Commissioner for Piacenza. IJiELA ND. THE POTATO BLIGHT. D BLIN, SUNDAY E VENING.—A Belfast paper states that in the counties of Antrim and Down, where a large breadth of potatoei had been planted, some cases of blight have occurred, which leave little doubt of a recurrence of the old di,ease. The accounts from the west, on the contrary, are highly favourable. THE CHOLERA. The disease has nearly, it not altogether, subsided in Galway and Mayo ; in the town of Athlone, how ever, there have been several fatal cases towards the close of the week. Amongst the victims was Quar termaster Tarleton, of her Majesty's 4th Light Dragoons, at present stationed in the garrison. EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.) (Sittings in Banco ) WAKLEY V. HEALY. In this case, which had not concluded on Saturday, The LORD CHIEF BARON delivered the judgment of the Court. The declaration stated that, if the plaintiff had been guilty of the facts imputed to of improperly advertising himself to the public, the College of Surgeons, of which he was a member, would have had the power, and would have exercised it, of expelling him from their body. This was traversed by the de fendant's plea, but no proof was given at the trial that the plaintiff was either a member of the college, or that the misconduct alleged in the libel would have led to hi► expulsion; and, consequently, the alleged libel upon him in his capacity as surgeon was no libel at all. It was upon that particular ground that the Court was unani meu,ly of opinion that there ought tea be a new trial, because the jury had no opportunity of judging whether there was a libel, and supposing there were, of estimating an equivalent amount of damages. Rule for a new trial granted. BANKRUPTCY.—(THIS DAY.' (Before Mr. Commissioner SHEPHERD.) IN RE CLARKE. This bankrupt was an upholsterer, &c., in Bishops gate, and to-day was appointed for his last examination, which had been adjourned. At the last meeting it was intimated that the bankrupt did not think it very pru dent to appear, after an intimation he had received, but at the request of his attorney the meeting was adjourned WI this day. Mr. LINKLATER, for the bankrupt, now said that the latter, on consideration, deemed it best not to appear, but take the consequence. His HONOUR therefore adjourned the case sine die, without protection. and at the bankrupt's costs. DEPARTURE OF HER MAJESTY AND THE COURT FOR WINDSOR CASTLE, FOR ASCOT RACES.—Her Majesty and the Prince Consort, accompanied by the royal children, and attended by Viscountess Canning, the Earl of Listowell, the Maids of Honour in wait ing, and other members of the household, left Buck ingham Palace this afternoon, escorted by a party of the 11th Hussars, for the Paddington terminus, when a special train conveyed them to the Slough station, where a party of the 2d Life Guards escorted the august party to the Castle. Her Majesty will give sumptuous banquets in St. George's-hall to her dis tinguished visitors to-day, to•morrow, and Thursday, honouring the course with her presence, i t is expected, accompanied by her illustrious guests on the days of the races. The Court will return to town on Friday. EXTENSIVE EIRE, (THIS DAY). — Between one and two o'clock this morning, a constable discovered an un usual light in the workshops of Mr. Bray, carpenter, Walworth-common. The fire, which was seen for a long distance, caused very ready assistance from the Waterloo-road, Southwark. bridge, West of England, and other stations. On the arrival of the firemen every exertion was used to stay the destruction, but by half past two o'clock the entire stock, tools, and every other description of property, as also the building were de stroyed. The cause of the fire remained a mystery, as everythir.g was left perfectly safe on Saturday night. The building, &c., is believed to be partly insured. Very valuable assistance was afforded by the police and neighbours, which tended to preserve other property. SUPPOSED MURDER AND SUICIDE.—OR Tuesday night last considerable sensation was caused in the neighbourhood of Preston, on its becoming known that the bodies of William Hull, a bricklayer of Preston, and Margaret Hull, his wife, had been found in the canal at Cottatn, about three miles from this town. Such an oc currence, naturally shocking in itself, was rendered the more painful from the fact of the deceased, William Hull, having been for a short time previously aff ec t e d from excessive drinking, end fretn his having said on the day of the accident that it was his intention to drown his wife. The precise circumstances attending the awful affair cannot now of course be known. On the jury returned morning an inquest wa s h e ld, w h e n th e returned a verdict of " Found dead in the canal, into to have been dro wne d, b ut h ow t h e y came the canal there was no evidence to show."—Preston Chro nicle. The departure of the French packets from Mar seilles for Malta, Alexandria, and Beyrout is altered from the 6th to the 4th of the month, the letters for which lean LQlltipn, 911 the last day of each 14911th. MONEY and COIdEMERCIAL NEWS CITY, (WAR% El? TO THREE. There was a moderate demand for Cotton at Liver pool on Saturday. The sales amounted to 7,000 bales at full prices, viz.: -6,000 American at aid. to 6id.; 100 Egyptian at Sid. to 7: 1 2 -d; 400 Surat at 3d. to 311; and 100 Sea Island at Wed. to Is. Id. per lb.—Railway Shares were dull, and at rather lower quotations. A moderate business has been done in Grain to-day at about previous rates. The express in anticipation of the Overland Mail from India has arrived, but the letters are not delivered. The political and commercial accounts are both favourable, as tar as the latter can yet be ascertained. The West India mail has also arrived, but furnishes nothing of importance. The general condition of the different islands was about the same as for some time past, or perhaps rather better, a less desponding feeling existing. The importance of having a steady residen tiary proprietary, willing to live moderately, and to look after their own affairs, begins to be recognized as indis pensable in Jamaica, where great fortunes are no longer to be made, and the same view will apply to the other co lonies. The application of the advances agreed to be made by the Home Government is likely, in sortie cases, to be diverted from the original object, the promotion of im migration, but the different legislatures are probably the best judges of the means calculated to raise the prospe rity of their respective countries, and in no instance can the 1 an be appropriated without the sanction of the Home Government. St. Kitts wishes to establish a Central Sugar Factory, St. Vincents is in want of a Bank, &c. _ _ _ From Grey Town, Musquito country, advices of April 26 inform us that everything was tranquil. The port, and more than half the river St. John, were under Bri tish control, and the fast increasing importance of Grey Town are noted as evidences of Lord Palmerston's saga city in maintaining the Musquito King. A communica tion across the isthmus will, it is hoped, be accomplished by this route. The Express packet brings the Brazil mail of 30th April. The exchange on London was 26d., and Six per Cent. Stock was at 85k. The produce markets were brisk, and the money market was easy. The customs receipts at Rio were much larger than at/the correspond ing date of last year. In Peru all was tranquil, but Bolivia is still dis turbed. The Californian accounts are as promising as ever. Buenos Ayres papers of March 17 have come to hand. There were 173 vessels in port of 36,669 tons. The exchange in England was 68s. per cz. The freight for tallow was 60s. per 2,240 lbs., and for bale goods 30s. to 355. per 40 feet. There was a strong feeling at Buenos Ayres that all difficulties with England were about to be adjusted. The reports of the Continental Money Markets state that at Frankfort prices were firm. The Five per Cents. 73i on the Ist inst. The Berlin market on the 31st ult. was quiet. At Amsterdam yesterday not much was dune. The Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. have been 481. The formation of a new Ministry at Paris, and the comparatively acceptable nature of the German consti tution, have, in conjunction with the fine weather, the arrival of a large amount of specie per West India mail, the good news from the East Indies, and the favourable state of the manufacturing markets, have all had an influence upon the Stock Market, and the improve ment in Consols is to 4 per cent., viz., to 921 though since the Bears have sold a little upon the ground that the Russian fleet is intended to assist the Danes. The New Three•and-a-Quarter per Cents. re alised 914 to .1. Bank Stock is worth 195, and India Stock 250 to 252. Exchequer-bills have been 455. to 485., and India Bonds 675. to 70s. premium. The Foreign Securities are rather firmer, though dull. The West India packets brings no Mexican mail. The Five per Cent. Bonds, ex-coupons, have been done at 27i to 28. Spanish Five per Cents. have been 17 to 171. Portuguese Four per Cents. have been 26 to 28. Dutch Four per Cents. zre 761, and French Five per Cents. have been 83, with the Exchange at 25 35. The Railway Share Market is looking more buoyant, and a good business has been transacted in the principal lines. The French shares are also better, but, except in Northern of France, not much has been done. ONE CLOSING P 'I- Es "IF BRITISH FUNDS O'CLOCK. PRICI S dank Stock 3 per Cent.
