Every laudable exertion continues to be made by the most practical and indefatigable of all our sanitary reformers, Mr. GEoadaE ALFRED WALKER, the chair man of the National Association for the Abolition of Intramural Interment. Thanks to the truly disin tprested and energetic proceedings of this gentleman, there is at lengh some probability that one of the most horrible, if not the most horrible of all our public evils will, before long, be entirely dissipated. Already his efforts have aroused the attention of the people—have led to the formation of a society to carry the objects he himself has been mainly instrumental in re vealing, and have secured, moreover, the pros pective co-operation of the Commissioners at Gwydyr House, and the support of several of the prin cipal members of the Administration. To have accomplished so much, even if no more were attempted, would redound to the honour of any private indivi dual. But to remember the loathsome nature of the particulars which Mr. WALKER has had personally to investigate, to bear in recollection the difficulties he has hai to overcome almost without any assistance whatever, and to know that all the good which he has up to the present time effected is considered by him as only a first step towards a ge neral amelioration, afford sufficient reason, we conceive, for the earnest consideration of his labours by the inhabitants of the United Kingdom. For ourselves we shall not cease to com ment upon the toils of this eminent public benefactor until such time as they are crowned with that success which in the end is inevitable. It was very admirably and forcibly remarked by Mr. WALKER, on the occasion of the last meeting of the Society for the Abolition of Burials in Towns, namely, on Tuesday the Gth instant, that it was essential that there should not be " the slightest re laxation of the exertions of those who desired to con serve their own lives and protect the remains of the dead from desecration." That sentence condenses into an epigrammatic compass the feelings out of which the whole movement against the system of intramural interment has emanated. The aspirations of the advocates of this beneficent movement are two fold, relating to the quick and to the dead—to the salubrity of the air inspired by the living, and to the decency of the precincts hallowed by the presence of the deceased. The arguments against the prevailing system indeed are not only the arguments of common sense, but of religion, not only the arguments of matters-of-fact, but the arguments of the gentlest and holicst sentiments, those tender and elevating sc reitnents which are among the noblest preroga tives of hmssanity. In calling upon the multitude to prevent the continuance of a practice which tends so very materially to enhance the amount of the general mortality, the aspirants for extramural inter ment are also entreating them to bear better in re membrance:the divine dogmas of Christianity. For, according to tia= existing custom, we bury our dead more like dogs doomed to a godless annihilation than like the remains of beings destined for resurrection and immortality. But, according to the plan pro pounded by the Chairman of the Extramural Inter ment Association, the bodies of our departed brethren would receive that decent sepulture which is surely the most agreeable to the feelings of the population, and which is assuredly the most consistent with the sublime teachings of Revelation. It was among the most beautiful aspirations of a poet of America that he should be buried where the sunshine might warm the verdure of the grass, and kindle the richest hues in the bells and blooms of the wild-fl )were, so that those who loved him might sometimes be tempted to tarry near his resting place when they came to muse over his memory. All such thoughts are dissipated by the repulsive and bvs.i.,l aspect of our city graveyards—the only emotions inspired by them being emotions of horror, shame, and loathing. With a suburban cemetery it is otherwise. There affection may ling ?r without any hideous recognition of the violation and desecration of the last solemn sanctuary of those who have passed through the shadows of dissolution. And it was felicitously shown on Tues day evening by an ingenious inhabitant of Brighton, that. the project of a general system of extramural in terment was in no measure incompatible with the notions of economy. The plan submitted by him to the meeting at Bridge-street, Blackfriars, was one of a proposed pyramidal cemetery, cal culated to contain within a very limited area, corpses to the enormous number of 6,000,000. How far such a scheme as this may be deemed re (llllAte is tolerably clear from the very disgusting details recorded by several of the gentlemen who ad dressed the assembly on Tuesday. One gave the folluwi,pg frightful description of Lock burial rolled in Southwark : "Luck I:urial-grcund," ho said, " corepoted a third of an , A ers, in which four hurdred bodies were buried on ?veri,ty in a year, an d duriug the cholera bet"e yc „ t y :nilceiry were buri e d a month.

When rrawnstratcd with for such Lrutality, Le replied, that if he did not ( , :hop up the bo•liea he conid not get ro6m to bury a cat." Another speeker mentioned that in St. (idea's Cemetery, Camden Town, no less than 1,000 bc, , dies bad been buried in a single year, while he very justly alluded to St. George's graveyard, Hanover sertlre, as a " consecrated cesepool." A third recorded certain circumstances in reference to the little church yard at the Essex village of Grays quite enough of itself to require the instant interposition of the autho- 4- 0 y e ,„‘Vi • g e . • . -; 4: 1. Y / :ft: ft m THE SUN, rities. So frightful, he observed was the condition of that churchyard, that while the village around it only contained a population of 2,000 the mortality in Grays during the time of the cholera was equal to the terrible mortality in Lambeth ! For such revelations as the foregoing—and they are the best incitements to those who are anxious to effect an amelioration—we are indebted to the energetic philanthropy of Mr. G. A. 'WALKER, the originator and the chairman of the National Society for the Abolition of the abominable system of Intramural Interments. Our accounts from Ireland lead us to the agreeable conclusion that the anniversary of GUY FAWKES has passed away without the effusion of blood in the now notorious county of Down. The threatened on slaught of the Orangemen has been prevented by the active and energetic precautions of the Government, and the country has been saved from the disgrace of a repetition, on a more extended and deadly scale, of the July massacre of Dolly's Brae. We are not the mercenary praise•singers of this or any other Minis try, nor are we the indiscriminate thick• and-thin supporters of the Irish Government, but strict justice demands that we should concede to Lord CLARENDON the fullest meed of approbation for the wise and firm course he has on the present occasion pursued—a course which, we feel convinced, he would hare pur sued previous to the 12th of July, were it not for a misplaced confidence in those who foully betrayed the high trusts which the laws confided to them. Lord CLARENDON is not intuitive ; he is human, and liable to deception, and, un fortunately, on that occasion, he was cruelly deceived. He knew not the BEERS and SEtews, the M'ILWAINES and DREWS of Ulster. He knew how great was the influence possessed by the leaders of the Orangemen over their ignorant and deluded followers ; he could not conceive that men of high rank and station would not use the influence of their position to maintain the laws ; he could not conceive that men clothed with the QUEEN'S authority, and sworn to preserve the peace, could be foremost in countenancing its infringement, by hounding on one mad faction against another; he could not conceive that any of the local magistrates of Ulster could so violate their duties as to muster and organize a set of armed and infuriated ruffians to parade through the country to the terror and alarm of her MAJESTY'S peaceful subjects, spreading conflagration and massacre through the fields and villages on their route. No ; Lord CLARENDON could not conceive this ; nor, indeed, could anybody else, judging by the ordinary standards of reason and morality. Let us, however, hope his Excellency now sees that the excesses to which Orange bigotry can lead are not to be judged by ordinary standards ; let us hope he now sees the true quality of Orange loyalty and justice, and that no misplaced confidence will again restrain him from the stern exercise of authority till these vile factions are crushed from one end of the island to the other, and the supremacy of the law s fully established. The Orangemen and the factionhts who sympa thise with them are resorting to every meanness and falsehood to vilify the QUEEN'S representative, and bring odium upon the Irish Government. They have openly charged the Lord-Lieutenant with sup plying the Orangemen in 1848 with those weapons with which they slaughtered the old women and children in 1849. This lie was set in motion by the gentle WILLIAM BEERS, and rolled on through the Orange press " vires acguirens eundo," till they would seem to have made such " truaits of their memories as to credit their own lie," and were emboldened to give it a tangible shape by asserting " that 6001. was given by the Castle autho rities through Captain KENNEDY to purchase arms for the Dublin Orangemen." This lie was at once hunted down and demolished by living authorities, but they were not to be silenced. They then descended to the grave, they called the dead to their ai3, and slandered the memory of an honourable man, Major TURNER. _ Having failed in fastening this dishonesty and im prudence upon Lord CLARENDON as a statesman, they endeavoured to tarnish his character as a gentleman by accusing him with the meanness of private letter writing and secret espionage, to gratify his pique against Lord RODEN. But this; horrible act of state strategy turns out to be a suggestion thrown out by one of the most amiable gentlemen in Ireland, Mr. C. FITZSIMON—a man totally incapable of Any act of meanness or dishonour, and certainly one of the last men in the country capable of any discourtesy to a lady, and that lady in the household of his QUEEN. Mr. FITZSIMON, in a praiseworthy anxiety that no thing should by possibility mar the universal rejoicing and welcome which awaited the . QUEßN—knowing that many persons attached great blame to Lord RODEN for not having used his influence to prevent the con fl.ct and massacre at Dolly's Brae, and fearing that public disapprobation might be expressed against any of Lord RODEN'S family who should appear in the QUEEN'S suite so soon after such fearful scenes—threw out the suggestion, in a note to Mr. CONNELLAN, his Excellency's private' secretary, and this very judicious and laudable act of Mr. Firs slliON is tortured into a paltry and un manly exhibition of Government spleen against the deputy Grand-Master of the Irish Orangemen. Lord RODEN, himself, we entirely acquit of any share in these reckless slanders. Indeed, that Nobleman has just cause to ejaculate, " Save me from my friends ;" their indiscretion is every day adding to the painful difficulties of his position. Every paltry nest of bigots, from Sandy-row to Blarney-lane, from the obscure village of Dundrum to the dingy purlieus of Dublin, all are exhibiting their disloyalty and insig nificance by raising a war. cry against the Irish Government for having exercised an undoubted right to dismiss from the magistracy men who had, in the eyes of all rational and impartial persons, proved their entire unfitness to discharge its duties—men who openly encouraged proceedings which led to the shed ding of innocent blood, and afterwards violated one of the most important principles of the Constitution, " that no man is to be judge in his own cause," by sitting in judgment on themselves, and using the prerogative of their high office to shield them from the consequences of their own misdeeds. The mountains of Mourne, after long travail, brought forth and gave to the world a titled dolt, and a few surpliced fanatics. The Marquis of Dowx- SHIRE exhibited as primo buffo at the ultra-Protestant demonstration in Belfast, where the actors in that silly drama made up for the paucity of numbers, and the absence of respectability, by the intensity of their malevolence. The Learned Chairman showed his peculiar fitness for the high position he occupied by enlightening his auditors with a legal disquisition, a task to the discharge of which he brought the ex • perience of two branches of the Legislature. His Lordship having condescended for a time to bestow the benefit of his learned lore on the Lower House of Parliament, while he now dignifies by his genius the House commonly called the House of Peers, certainly not his peers—he is peerless, he displayed his thorough acquaintance with HALE and BLACKSTONE by his exposition of the lea non scripta ! Will not his order blush for this blockhead Lord ? How enlight ened must have been that select society which shouted Hear, hear," when the Solon of Hilsborough an nounced to them that British subjects are bound by no laws save those enacted by the King, Lords, and C,,mmons of these realms. His extensive legal re search did not enable him to discover that it was written down in definite terms in the statute-book, that no County Down Orangeman should shoot a County Down Papist—how then, argueth the Ulster Solon, could it be contrary to law? DOOBEERY was never more anxious to be written down an ass than this clownish Lord appears to be. His next exhibition was at Dundrum, an obscure village in the county of Down, which the sympathisers have made their recruiting quarters, and from whence they scatter circulars and resolutions through the country, under the pretext of requesting condolence and sympathy with Lord i onax. The Beers appear to be bottledaltogether— bl intout a flame in realityamthe to dyingmake emberswi cked of attemptrelireligious n t s o fan agai n bigotry— but we are happy to perceive their efforts have sig nally failed. The good and the wise among the Protestant gentry, the pious and Christian amongst the clergy, and nearly the whole body of the gies byterian3, have taken no part in those unseemly gatherings. The High. Sheriff KEOWN, to be sure, presided, and gave to the secret cabal of Dundrum a sort of official importance, but it should be known that this gentleman is an Orangeman, and the brother in-law of WILLIAM BEERS. Several of the magis tracy of the County Down, to whom the reso lutions adopted at this hole-and-corner meeting were sent for approval and signature, have taken the trouble of remonstrating with those insane persons in the language of good sense and Christian feeling, and indignantly refused to sign the disloyal docu ments. Amongst many very able replies we cannot pass over one from a nobleman of large property in Down, and the kinsman of Lord RODEN—the Marquis of LONDONDERRY. His Lordship says-- "had the address been confined to a simple expres sion of condolence and regret to Lord Roden on the unfortunate events that led to his dismissal from the magistracy, many feelings both private and public would probably have induced me to join iu such measures. But with all the sincere respect I entertain for his Lordship, with all the veneration with which ho is environed in his own country, and above all, with the high valua I attach to our recent connexion, I find it totally impossible either to acquiesce in the address to his Lordship, much less to sign the extraordinary resolutions which have been adopted at the meeting of certain magistrates and gentry of the county of Down, for I confess, beyond the natural influence of the estimation in which I hold my Noble Friend, and the wishes of friends and connexion, I feel there is a duty beyond all— I mean the duty I owe to Lny Sovereign. " You request of sae to be a pasty to declare, by your first resolution, that I view with indignation and alarm the arbitta7 y act of the Government in certain dismissals from the commission of the peace, and such alarm tends to exasperate and create a disgust in the minds of every loyal subject. And then, in the third resolution, you acknowledge it to be the undoubted right of her Majesty to dismiss any of her servants • and that you would be unw illing to advance anything that could be construed to be disrespectful, or to bring into contempt her Majesty's authority. What 1 can it be gravely argued that the first resolution does not tend to bring her Majesty's Government and authority into disrespect and contempt? And is it expected that I should affirm such a declara tion, holding as I do, from her Majesty's gracious favour, the high posrion of Lord-Lieutenant of cne of her English counties? "But the inconsistency of these resolutions appears to me not more evident than the unhappy and inju licious composition of them. They seem dressed up rather to fan and keep alive new flame, to heighten rather than allay animosity, to add fresh ingredients to the cauldron so lung boiling over, and to continue a spirit of party warfare for ever in our beloved but unfortunate country." Such is the able, dignified, and right loyal spirit which marks the entire of the rebuff returned in reply to the Dundrum manifesto by the manly and chival rous LONDONDERRY. We regret our space will not permit us to go through the entire of it, but we cannot too strongly recommend its perusal to the deluded Orangemen of Down. Several other insignificant and secret gatherings of the factionists have taken place in Dublin and elsewhere, but all have ended in " sound and fury, signifying nothing." They generally explode in harmless volleys of the Kentish-fire, which burn no houses and kill no old women. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. They all of them contain the following account of the arrangement of the difere❑ces which had arisen between the editors of the journals and the Presi dent of the Assembly : The following letter was yesterday addressed to the President of the _National Assembly " Monsieur le President,—ln consequence of what oc curred on Wednesday, and of the protest published in the journals, the syndics of the principal editors, guardians of the dignity of the press, placed their re signation in the hands of their colleagues. Th© prin cipal editors, who assembled to deliberate on this inci dent, have decided that they will place at the disposal of the President the tribune which had been accorded to them.—We have the honour, &e. " EMILE AE GIRARDIN, " LEOPOLLD DURAS, " " LIIBIS, Syt dies." " CIIATARD, The President of the Legislative Assembly having transmitted this letter to the questors, one of them declared to the syndics that there was no reason to accept the rupture of the relations established between the Assembly and the press, and that, consequently, the tribune of the principal editors would, as hereto fore, continue to be at their exclusive disp3sal. In consequence of this satisfactory declaration, the prin cipal editors again took possession of the tribune, the interior police of which is placed under the responsi bility of the syndics. A meeting of the principal editors of the Paris journals has been convened for Sunday, for the pur pose of adopting measures to prevent the recurrence of such an indignity as that which was put upon them on Wednesday by President Durex, at the instigation of an obscure member of the parti pretre. The defeat of the parti-pretre on Wednesday on M. DE FALLornes Bill, followed up by their complete route on the following day, when M. DE KEDREL, instigated by the most fanatical of the followers of MONTALEMBERT, attempted in vain to induce the Assembly to reverse its previous decision, has struck with panic the army of the faith. The ultra- Montanists are mad with rage at the idea that notwithstanding the anathemas of M. DE MONTALEMBERT against the Liberals, and the eulogies of M. DE FALLOUI on the .Etree lien pensans, the French people are not to be either bullied or humbugged into committing the education of their children to Frere LEOTADE and the Christian brethren, or to the disciples of Loyale. In the course of the debate on the Marseilles and Avignon Railway Company Bill on Thursday, the views of the new Cabinet on the subject of railways were explained by the Minister of Public Works, M. BINEAU. The following is the text of the Bill as proposed by the Committee:— "Art. 1. The Minister of Public Works is authorised to guarantee, in the name of the state, to tha Marseilles and Avignon Railway Company, during the duration of the concession, such as it is fixed by the law of July 24, 1843, the interest of 5 per cent., and the sinking fund calculated according to the length of the concession on the capital which that company shall borrow for the payment of its debts and the completion of the works, the capital in no case to exceed 30,000,000 f. " Art. 2. The amount, the mode of negotiation, and the conditions of the loan to be contracted by the com pany must be . previonsly approved of by the Government. " Art. 8. When the state shall have, as guarantee, paid the whole or part of an annuity of interest and sinking fund, it shall reimburse itself from the net profits of the undertaking, and before any amount of interest or divi dead shall be reserved bytthe company. " Art. 4. If at the expiration of the concession the state is creditor of the company, the amount of its credit shall be paid as far as the amount due to the company fur the material taken back according to the terms of Art. 4 of the cahier des charges annexed to the law of July 24, 1843." M. Mouchy proposed as an amendment that the lease should be extended from 33 to 99 years. M. Lherbette opposed the amendment, as tending to encourage stock-jobbing and wild speculation. M. Bineau, the Minister of Public Works, said that the Government could not accept the amendment of M. de Mouchy, but its motives for refusing it were not those of the last speaker. Like M. de Mouchy, the Government was anxious to alleviate the em barrassed position of the railway companies. The Government was convinced that it was necessary to leave to private enterprise the execution and working of the railway lines.—(Loud approbation on the Right, murmurs on the Left.) Such undertakings ought not to be a cause of ruin to the shareholders, and it was impossible to deny that the discredit which had fallen on such undertakings was an obstacle to the execution of new works. The Government was well disposed to seek means of ameliorating that situation, and, like M. Mouchy, was in favour of increasing the length of the concessions. But whilst so disposed, the Government was not in• dined to do so, unless the State gained something in return in the shape of profit to the Treasury or to the public, as far as the companies could accord it. On several unfinished lines, the ex pense had been shared between the State and the company. The result was that after February the heaviest share of the charge fell on the State. Hitherto much money and short leases were accorded to the companies ; he firmly believed that the oppo site system was the preferable one.—(Hear, hear.) If the companies, which had treated on the conditions of the law of 1842, desired to take on themselves a part of the expenses failing on the State, the State in return would not refuse to prolong their conces sions. As to the companies which had branch lines and extensions to make, if they undertook to execute them promptly, the State, - would, on its side, prolong the l e ngth o terminated th e c onc essions. which a There i t hwereer to a lsoli executenes altogether extensions nor branch lines; from them also a com pensation could be demanded. Thus, they might be asked to grant more favourable conditions. to the public, and modifications in the ca hiers des charges, and in return the State would extend the length of the concessions given to them. Thus, gentlemen, you perceive, pursued the Hon. Minister, in this manner the State, whilst according to the companies the more extended time which they desire, may obtain from them in return real advantages either in a diminution of tariffs or in an exonerotion to the Treasury of a portion of the expenses, or, in fine, in modifications in the clauses of the cahiers des chws. By such an arrangement the extensions and branch lines would be immediately executed ; and, in place of a state of suffering, acti vity and amelioration would be imparted to a vast net work of important undertakings.—(Hear.) It is in this point of view that it appears to me that we ought to examine the present question. We cannot consent to the amendment which proposes to extend the con- 'LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING., NOVEMBER 10; 1849. cession from 33 to 99 years, for we are called on by it to consent to sacrifices without being authorised to exact new efforts on the part of the company. Let the company agree to execute extensive works—let it, for instance, execute the branch line from Avignon to Toulon, which has a great military importance, and then it will be time to think of according it the ad vantages demanded, but which nothing at the present moment could justify. Such being oar views, we must call on the Assembly not to adopt M. de Mouchy's amendment.— (Applause.) M. St. Beuve thought that the Government was either doing too much or not enough. The present Bill was only a sort of half-measure, which would not have the effect of reviving private credit, and without such revival the undertaking of the Marseilles to Avignon Railway would be only a bad affair. On the Left—What is that to us ? M. St. Beuve went on to say that M. de Mouchy's proposition would have the immediate effect of giving confidence, and would thus ensure the completion of the line without delay. Short concessions tended to favour stock-jobbing. In England, where the contrary practice was puhued, railways crossed the country in every direction. What was wanting in France at present was, to re-animate the spirit of enterprize. Enough had been done in the way of declamation against bankers and jobbing ; the essen tial matter at present was to produce acts. The amendment would, he conceived, produce a most beneficial effect, and he should, therefore, support it. M. Lherbette spoke in strong terms against the practices of jobbing, which, he affirmed, was always connected with railway matters. He reminded the Assembly that the Government of the Monarchy had fallen less on a political question than on one of morality.—(Hear, hear, on the Left.) The Consti tuent Assembly had felt deeply on this point, and had even gone the length of interdicting any representa tive to be the director of a railway company. A Voice—lf your theory is sound, you ought to insist that the landed proprietors should not vote on matters of taxation. M. Lherbette must observe that questions of taxation were matters of general and not private interest. Another Voice—The principles of morality which you speak of are as old as the hills. M. Lherbette—Yes, they were eternal—they were as old as had just been stated —(Noise ) On the Left—Silence on the benches of the Reactionists ! On the Right—Silence on the benches of Ledru Rollin's commissioners ! M. Lherbette—But it was because they were thus old and respectable that they ought to be observed. M. de Mouchy again defended his amendment, and called on the Assembly to adopt it. Several Members having expressed a wish to speak, the discussion was adjourned to the next day. The rumour of the appointment of M. CARLIER to the head of the Police is confirmed. According to the .Evenement Count FLAIIAUT will be appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs. Count FnenAur was a favourite officer of the EMPEROR, and, if we mistake not, was at one time attached to his household. his Bonapartist principles prevented his advancement under the Restoration, but after 1830 he was frequently employed in a diplomatic capacity by Louis Pirimere. Count FLAHAUT is married to an English peeress in her own right, the Baroness KEITH, only child of the late Admiral Lord KEITH. M. RIfES, the new Minister Plenipotentiary of the United States, was rec( ivied on Thursday by the PRESIDENT of the Republic. The PRINCE was most gracious ; hut he observed, that in consequence of the differences that had arisen between the two Govern ments, he would have been deprived of the honour of receiving him if, instead of being a Republican Minister, he had been a Monarchical Ambassador. La Presse contradicts the statement made in La Patric, to the effect that the French Government had dispatched a courier from Paris on the 15th ult., to St. Petersburgh, to explain to the CZAR that the sailing of the French and British fleets towards the Dardanelles was the effect of a misunderstanding. The trial at Versailles still drags its slow length along. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE arrived in Paris on Thursday. The intelligence from Algeria comes down to the 31st October. The siege proceedings at Zaatcha were going on regularly, but no new attack had been made since that of which we gave an account a few days back, and which our readers may remember had proved unsuccessful. The cholera still continued its ravages, although the accounts from some points of the colony are decidedly more favourable. M. RITES, Minister of the United States, in pre senting his letter of credence to the PRESIDENT of the Republic at the Elysis Nationale, accompanied it with the following observations : " Monsieur le President,—la presenting to you the litter of credence which I have been charged by the President of the United States to deliver to you, I should very imperfectly comprehend the spirit of my mission, and the views and feelings of those I am com missioned to represent, if I were not to assure you, as the chosen head of this great nation, of the sincere and cordial friendship which the people and Government of the United States cherish for the people and constituted authorities of the French Republic. There are no two nations, we persuade ourselves, which can have stronger motives, whether in the recollections of the past or the sympathies and interests of the present, to cultivate a constant good understanding and fraternal intercourse with each other. tinder the influence of this sentiment, the most ardent vows are formed everywhere in the United States for the happiness of France, and the consolidation of her liberties upon the sure basis of order, religion, and respect for the law, which you, Monsieur le President, on a late august occasion, so justly pro nounced to be the distinguishing characteristic of a free people. If, in the performance of the honourable trust with which I have been charged, I should have the good fortune to ba instrumental, in any degree, in strengthening the natural bonds of amity and friendship between France and the United States, I shall have ac complished my mission in the manner which will best answer to the wishes and intentions of my Government as well as to my own most earnest desires."

GERMANY AND THE NORTHERN STATES. AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY• _ Not content with murdering the brave Magyar generals, the Red ExtrEßoa, surpassing in cruelty his prototype NERO, wreaks his vengeance on the unoffending wives and children of his victim. Hav ing murdered the husband and father, he robs the mother and children even of their clothes, and leaves them to nakedness and starvation. General DAMIA RICE!, who was one of the Red EMPEROR'S victims, has left behind him a young wife. Immediately after his murder the officers of the Austrian Treasury seized the whole of his property. They even took the personal effects of his widow, and the gowns and other articles of clothing of Madame DaNtrAsicit were sold by auction. Even the Jews were so disgusted that they would not attend the sale, and the officers of the Austrian army, who were the sole bidders, bought them at their own prices. One of these chivalrous heroes purchased a magnificent velvet robe for half a. crown. We are informed that there are sundry Englishmen who are officers in the Austrian service. It would be well that their names should be published, in order that all honest Englishmen may avoid them, should they dare to pollute their native land (which has cast them forth) with their presence. The Journal des Debats contains a letter from Vienna, 31st ult., giving the following account of the National Bank of Austria:—" The Bank of Austria has eleven branch establishments, one at Prague, another at Brunn, Buda, Gratz, &c. The object of these branch banks is to exchange bills for bills, bilis for cash, or cash for bills, and to reimburse the bills of the Central Bank drawn on them, and to draw cn the Bank of Vienna. one of the branch establiAments discount bills of Exchange, except that of Prague, where the discount is 4 per cent.; there is a discount bank also at Brunn, but it is regu late:l by a commercial committee, and has its funds supplied by the head establishment. The Bank of Vic nna, like that of France, is influenced by passing events ; in periods of eribis it has, with the authorisa tion of the Government, opened temprcary credits to the great commercial establishments ot the country, and thereby saved them from ruin. The greatest act of im portance performed by the Bank, has, however, been to assist the Government itself during the late political shocks, and to have enabled it, in spite of the enormous military expenditure, to avoid the necessity of levying extraordinary taxes, and to wait for the most favour able moment to contract a loan. The debt of the State to the Bank, comprising the floating debt, is large, but the new loan, as well as a part of the Sardinian indemnity, are to be devoted to diminish that obliga tion. As the revenues of the monarchy will augment by the regular division of the taxes, and as the ex penses of the army will necessarily decrease, the Government will be enabled to pay off the remaining portion of the debt, and thus the bank will again return to its ordinary modes of business, and render that assistance to the public which it did before the events of 1848." Since the month of November, 1848, the court martial at Vienna has pronounced not fever than 1,600 sentences. In Galicia courts martial have also been established, and one of them recently condemned a priest to imprisonment for having spoken ill of the Emperor of RUSSIA. PRUSSIA. General KLAPKA, who had left London for Berlin, was not allowed by the Prussian Government to pursue his journey ; he was arrested at Dusseldorf by orders from Berlin, and conducted on the 6th to the Belgian frontier. On leaving Dusseldorf he was loudly cheered by the inhabitants. The Berlin journals state that it is proposed to establish an " association for the emancipation of nations by moral improvement," and that MM. DE LAMARTINE, ABAGO, COBDEN, FISCHHOPF, Prince DE WALLERSTEIN, SCIIUSELKA, and others, have been communicated with respecting it. A " Popular Congress" is to be held at Liege in February, to draw up the statutes of the association. According to the Western German Gazette, the Archbishop of COLOGNE has just quitted the Prussian territory, in order not to submit to certain measures of the Government. CENTRAL GERMANY. The Cologne Gazelle, under date of Frankfort, Nov. 6, says there are many symptoms leading to the suppcsition that war will be resumed with Den- mark. The report is already heard that the army of the empire, under the command of General PEUCKER, is held in readiness to march ; and that preparations are being made in the Duchy of Na!sau, which tend to confirm these warlike reports. The Senate of Frankfort resolved in its last sitting to ,adhere to the treaty of 30th September, for the establishment of a Central Provisional Commission. The Frankfort Journal announces that on the in stallation of the new Provisional Central Commission the fortress of Radstadt is to be occupied by a mixed garrison of Austrians and Prussians. RUSSIA AND TURKEY. The Patrie publishes the following letter from Odessa, 26th ult.:—" The Turkish garrison of Galatz, composed of 1,600 men, has just received ord , 2rs to march immediately for the fortress of Choumla, in the Balkans. This fortress, as is well known, has in every war resisted the reiterated attacks of the Russians. Varna has also received a strong garrison. All the Turkish troops who vi ere in the principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia have just concentrated themselves and made a retrograde movement. The Russians are therefore for the moment alone in the principalities. The Paella FUAD EFFENDI is expected every day at Odessa, whence he will embark for Constantinople. General LuDEas left Odessa on the 21st to return to Bucharest." SWITZERLAND. The Gazette of Berne announces that IlAzzlNi has been expelled frum the Bernese territory. 1T A Y. The report of the arrival of the PorE - at Benevento, which is in his own dominions, is confirmed. It is said that Cardinal LAMBRU3CIIINI, who was the Prime Minister of GREGORY XVI., has addressed a letter to the POPE, pointing out to his HOLINESS, what must be the inevitable result of a continued perseverance in the retrograde policy of Cardinal ANTONELLI and his co adjuta►ors, and urging him to abandon it while there is yet time to repair the mis chief they have done. The Piedmontese Gazette of the sth contains the notification that the commission for the re organiza tion of the army, presided over by the Duke of GENo.a, is dissolved ; and that the Ministry is charged with the carrying out its duties. LEVANT MAIL. By the Levant mail we have received Constanti nople papers to the 24th ult., Athens to the 28th, and Malta to the 2d inst. The Malta mail announces the return, on the Ist, of the French steamer Tancrbde, from Constantinople. It had fallen in with the fleet of Sir William Parker, off Scio. The Ripon steamer arrived at Malta on the 30th, with the outward India mail, and left the following day for Alexandria. The Constantinople journals give no further in formation relative to the differences concerning the refugees. The last steamer from Odessa had brought the intelligence that Fuad Effendi had been received at Warsaw with the greatest honour. The Tartare steamer, which had left for Toulon on the 14th, arrived at Constantinople on the 24th, having a British Cabinet courier on board, with dispatches for the British embassy. The French steamer Tancrede had arrived with Riza Bey, at tached to the translating office of the Porte, charged with dispatches for the Imperial Government. Ge neral Aupick, who, by the same conveyance, had received important dispatches from his Government, immediately proceeded to Balta Liman, where he had a conference with the Grand Vizier and the Minister of Foreign Affairs. The Porte has given orders to all governors of provinces to aid and protect all refugees appealing to them, except from motives which may compromise the Cabinet, and has also addressed a note to them announcing that the affairs between Austria, Russia, and the Porte have been interrupted, but remained in statu quo. The Journal de Constantinople publishes the following memoran dum, addressed by the Porte to the representative of the French Republic:— " Monsier le Miniscre has expressed a desire to ob tain some explanation concerning certain differences apparently existing between the monorandunz, addressed by the Sublime Porte to all the heads of misssion, dated the 29th Robioul Akir of this year, concerning the exchange, and the public declaration made by the Bank of Constantinople in the beginning of the month of March. I, therefore, have the honour to inform him that the Sublime Porte has, for this year, adopted the same course it followed last year, namely, that the operations of exchange are wholly for its own account; that it has only named MM. Jacques Anion and Em manuel Baltazzi directors of the Bank, and that the paper they give is placed under tho guarantee of the Imperial Government. "I take this opportunity, &c. "End of Zil Cadii, 1265 (Oct. 16)." The same journal announces the arrival at Constan tinople of the Turkish State steamer Peiki Chevket from Samos, having on board several of the most distinguished inhabitants of that island, come to ex pose their complaints to the Turkish Government, and to give it the assurance of their devotedness anti loyalty. The Porte had listened to their complaints, and promised to pay attention to them, as soon as the inhabitants of Samos should have returned to their duty and obedience. Mr. Karr, ex• Minister of the United States to the Sublime Porte, sailed on the 20th for America, on board the Sultan. Mr. Brown, drago►nan of the office, fulfils his duties ad interim. The situation of Bosnia, according to the last ac counts, appeared to have improved. No further ac counts had been received from Persia concerning the apprehended insurrection. The Courrier d' Athenes contains no nevis of importance. The precarious situation of the Greek Cabinet still continued. DEATH OF LORD ALVANLEY.,.--It is with regret that we record the death of Lord Alvanley. The Noble Lord had for some short time been ill, and he expired yesterday (Friday), about ono o'clock in the afternoon. Lord Alvanley never married. He was related to the Wilbraham family, his mother having been a daughter of Richard Wilbraham Bootle, Esq., and a sister of Lord Skelmersdale. Lord Alvanley is succeeded in his title by his brother, the Hon. Richard Arden, who was formerly a lieutenant colonel in the army, but, like his brother, he retired. He was born in 1792, and married, in 1831, the Lady Arabella Vane, youngest daughter of the first Duke of Cleveland. FATAL ACClDENT.—Yesterday morning At eleven o'clock an inquest was taken at the Charing• cross Hos pital, before Mr. Bedford, on view of the body of Chas. Brooks, aged 23, who met with an accident at Russsell's blacking manufactory, Strand, on Wednesday last. It appeared that last Wednesday forenoon the deceased and two other men were raising a hogshead of blacking by means of a crane, when, while shifting the handle for the Purpose of lowering the hogshead on a platform, the handle got loose from the deceased's hand and immedi ately revolved, and the deceased received a violent blow from it on the right eye and knocked him down. He was taken to the above iustitthion, when the eye was found completely destroyed, and two pieces of hone were dislodged. Inflammation subsequently came on, which extenekd to thn., brain and caused death. There was it'so an extensive fracture. Verdict, " Accidental death." MURDER EV A CONVICT IN MILLIIARK PENITEN TIARY.—HaII, the unfortunate warder who was so brutally attacked by John Francis, one of the convicts in Millbank, as described in our impression of yester day, expir ed in the course of Thursday night, having re mained in a state of insensibility from the moment of the asault. Ile was forty-three years of age, and has left a large family. It is conjectured that the first; blow must have rendered the urOortunate man defenceless, as within a few yards from where he fell there was an alarm bell, which, no doubt, he would have rung hail he been able to reach 4, MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at from 8,000 to 10,000 bales, nearly half o . which were taken on speculation. The market wa. active and prices were well supported.—Railway Shares were quiet though firm. The accounts from the manufacturing districts notice an increase of business within the last two days, spe cially at Manchester. An illustraion of the greater abundance of money is afforded by the apparently diminished demand for ac commodation at the Bank of England. The circulation and advances upon securities have both been reduced. while the amount of the precious metals has again been added to. Still we must notice a withdrawal of private deposits, which, after their baying attained such a great height, will ( xcite no surprise, The following is a com parison with the previous week:— Notes Issued ... ... 28,605,600 Increase 135,035 Rest ... 3,158,720 Increase ... 25,940 Public Deposits 5,347,502 Increase ... 488,913 Other Deposits a. 10,399,754 Decrease 338,388 Seven Day and other Bills 1,109,155 Increase ... 28,241 Government Securities ...

The movement made by the head men in the railway world for establishing a more efficient system of audit, will, if steadily carried forward, tend to pacify the exist ing excitement or arrest the prevalent despondency. 1 The disposition when in a dilemma to call upon the Le gislature constantly for help is but puerile after all, and, as Llessrs. Railton, of Manchester, write very fairly : " For Parliament to interfere in railways would be very unwise, after the specimen you have had of its treatment of these matters since 1845, when it broke up the railway department of the Board of Trade, under the plea of its own superior ability to manage railway af fairs. It need only to be thus cursorily referred to to be perfectly understood, that it widely opened the door to burry on the completion of railway disaster. If prac tical men, of acknowledged competency, cannot be found by r ailw ay- stockholders themselves, there is, it is to be feared, but little hope remaining for future and final permanent railway prosperity; and to what a position to reduce the most noble private adventure that this or any other nation or people aver embarked in, with the certain means in their power for satisfactory com pensation; if Parliament, the proprietors, and the public, would real y unite, and take the right means for accom plishing the true end in view But shareholders must not sleep. The least possible delay should take place before remedial measures be adopted, or the evil-minded (so long as the power remains to them) may be as rife and secretly active as heretofore." For ourselves we almost despair of shareholders as an acting body. They whine and sacrifice their property, declaim against mismanagement, stigmatise directors, and yet do nothing themselves to place railways on a sounder footing. An excellent state of things is disclosed in the official return of exports made up for the month ending October 10, the total being 5,627,0924, against 4,901,6461. to the like date of 1848. Taking the eight months, the increase is 8,295554/. The exports of the precious metals from London daring the week to Thursday last were 50,434 ounces of silver coin and bars, and 4,000/. in bullion.
