An impression appears to be gaining ground, even among some of those who were recently enthusiastic in the cause of the Hungarians, that the policy of KOSSUTEI and his compatriots had latterly become in jured by its illegality. It is argued that at the outset of the great movement of the Magyar population, the " insurgents" were only acting in the most justi fiable manner in vindication of their outraged rights and in defence of their assailed constitution, but that ultimately the leaders ventured upon political ex cesses nothing short of high treason and leze majestt. For, most traitorous and indefensible, it is declared, was the solemn decree of the Central Government deposing the dynasty of Hapsburg, declaring the crown of St. Stephen to be forfeited by the family of FERDINAND, and substituting a provisional adminis tration in lieu of a German Sovereign. Now, such a preposterous assertion as this is tantamount to the declaration that the Houses of Orange and Brunswick, since 1688, have been guilty of the most flagrant usurpation. It is equivalent to the denial of the authority of our present beloved QUEEN to the throne of the British Empire. If it was illegal to depose the Hapsburg dynasty in Hun gary, it was equally illegal to depose the Stuart dynasty in England. If the decree of 1848 was a decree criminal to the extent even of leze majesty, so also was the decision arrived at in 1688, with reference to King JAMES the SECOND. In both instances the will of an entire nation was ex pressed by the voice of its assembled representatives. In both instances a venerable charter had been vio lated. In both instances the constitution of the land had been attacked by the unfaithful hand which had been sworn to its conservation. To a con• siderable extent, however, there was a dif ference between' the two cases, we will admit, but it was a difference entirely in favour of the course pursued by the Hungarians. To duplicity, cajolery, and general faithlessness, the nominal suc cessor of FERDINAND had united the most dastardly falsehood, and the most inhuman cruelty. Every effort to bring about a reconciliation had been tried, but tried in vain. Concessions on the popular side had but led to exactions on the part of the Camarilla at Schoenbrunn. Confidence had only produced betrayal. Fresh evidences of loyalty—of a loyalty so profound and earnest as to have gradually resolved itself into a proverb—had only been repaid by double-dealing, tyranny the most grinding, and oppression the most diabolical. Ex hausted in their sublime patience, the Hungarians at last scattered to the winds their idle forbearance, and in the face of earth and heaven-•.before GOD and man, proclaimed the resumption of the crown by the people—exactly as our forefathers did in reference to the last of the Royal House of the Stuarts. Had the Great , Louis of France, in support of his well-beloved cousin, King JAMES the SE COND, conducted his armies into England, and restored him to the throne from which he had been hurled by the nation, had Louis XIV. acted in 1688 as the Autocrat NacnoLes has acted in 1849, dragging back the dethroned dynasty, and forcing the monarch again upon the population, we should doubtless have heard similar comments to those now uttered upon the Hungarians. It would have been said that our forefathers, in pronouncing the fall of the Stuarts from the sovereign dignity, had acted illegally, and had been guilty of leze ma jeste. And so it is. As NAPOLEON is said to have remarked in his " Pensees"—success makes the hero, failure the criminal ; success leads the hero to the palace, failure =ducts him to the dungeon; he is glorious in the one instance, in the other he is regarded as infamous. So it would ap pear to be, in the estimation of those who while Hungary was triumphant sang paeans of homage to her statesmen, and, now that she has been betrayed by treason and crushed by brute force, declare those same statesmen to be little better than outlaws. Our reason does not the less revolt from this mode of argument than do our sympathies and our affections. We feel and think in this matter upon exactly the same principle—upon a principle higher than that obsolete humbug the " right divine" of legitimacy. If kings fell down from heaven like the immortal King Loa of antiquity, the case, no doubt, would be different ; but as it is the deduction is necessarily and essentially simple. If kings do not drop from the clouds—whence do they originate? They originate, as every other earthly power originates, from the selection or the consent of the community. As in nature, that which creates can also annihilate, so with the poli. tical institutions of society, that which imparts authority can likewise recal it. Philosophy, reason, common sense, assure us that the right of kings is dependent upon the due discharge of those duties for the faithful performance of which they themselves or their ancestors have been anointed with the chrism of religion. It has been magnificently said of Christianity by Mr. MACAULAY—and the remark has a pathetic significance at this moment—" 7'hose who thrust tempo ral sovereignty upon her, treat her as her proselytes treated her Author. They bow the knee, and spit upon her ; they cry !' and smite her upon the cheek f they put a sceptre in her hand, but it is a fragile reed; they crown her, but it is with thorns; they cover with purple the wounds which their own hands have iiJlicted on her ; and inscribe magnificent titles over the cross on which they have fixed her to perish in ignominy and pain." Very different is the homage paid to the exclusive possessors of temporal sove• reignty. For them the sceptre is no reed, the diadem is not a mockery, the imperial robe is not merely a squalid masquerade of calamities. The bond of gra. titude for the authority conferred upon them should THE SUN, consequently be only the stronger. And yet we are told that there is no available channel of redress even to a nation deceived, tormented, and oppressed as Hun gary has been by successive members of the Hapsburg dynasty. Away with this paltry trifling with the right reason of the population ! Away with these miserable vestiges of an obsolete and degraded feudality ! It is undoubtedly right that every member of the body politic should contribute towards the national expenditure in proportion to his means and the stake he possesses in the country. It is the legitimate return which be must render for the rights and privileges he enjoys, and the protection afforded to him by the Government._ He must, in fact, surrender a certain portion of his natural liberty and a part of his possessions for the general advantage, and in order that he himself may obtain the more secure enjoyment of the remainder. Such is the law of every civilized community—a law essential to its very existence. Taxation is, therefore, a necessary evil to which all must submit, and no reasonable complaints can be preferred so long as it is kept within reason able limits, and fairly and justly apportioned. Nothing, however, can be more unequal in opera tion, or unjust in principle, than the fiscal system under which the public revenue of the country is collected. Had it not been sanctioned by successive Parliaments, and enforced for a long series of years, it would seem to be a work of supererogation to ex pose its palpable injustice and impolicy. That the man who is compelled to earn his daily bread by the sweat of his brow, who maintains an arduous struggle in the " battle of life," and who must toil inces santly to procure a bare sufficiency of even the humblest fare, should be required to pay a higher per centage on his income than the person in the actual possession of accumulated and realised pro perty, who can enjoy all the comforts of life in luxurious idleness, appears too gross an absurdity to be argued against. •It seems to be fighting against shadows, or attempting the demonstration of self-evident propositions. But the apparently useless task is forced upon us when we find the leader of a great party—a man of un doubted genius and talent, one who recognizes the importance of a "guiding principle," and who adopts as his motto; " equal taxation"—advocating not merely a continuance of the present impolitic and inequitable system of indirect imposts, but a I , large addition thereto, by placing a duty upon " every article of foreign import whatever." "Indirect taxation" is not only in the highest de gree injurious to the trade and commerce of the country, but it also tends to the demoralization of the people. It fosters and encourages smuggling, and renders an enor mous expenditure necessary to check the illicit trade which it is calculated to produce. Much larger sums are taken from the people than are paid into the Exchequer. The taxes ultimately fall upon the consumer, but the merchant by whom the corn- modity is imported, .and the various intermediate hands through which it passes before consumption, calculate their profits not merely on the first cost price of the article, but also on the duty paid to the Government, and the profit on that duty obtained by the previous dealers. The price is therefore enhanced not merely by the amount of the duty, but by 30 to 40 per cent. additional, for the mercantile profit on the duty advanced by the various traders ; the ex pense of collection is also exceedingly heavy ; so that, putting the question of justice aside, the very first condition of a judicious impost is violated, the burden being much heavier on the tax-payer than would be required under a wiser system. But its impolicy is the least of the objec tions. Equal justice should be rendered to all, re- gardless of the consequences ; no degree of expedi ency can justify gross and flagrant robbery. A pickpocket will not be excused, because it was expedient for him to obtain possession of another man's property ; nor can the tax-payer be exempted from censure who unfairly endeavours to shift the liabilities from his own shoulders to those of his neighbours. A wealthy man cannot,' by a pos sibility, consume taxable articles in proportion to his income. A person with ten thousand per annum will not require ten times the quantity of tea or coffee, beer or spirits, sugar or tobacco that would be used by another with one thousand a year, nor still less, one hundred times the amount of a person with but one hundred per annum. Such a person, even if living according to his resources, will not contribute to the revenue more than fire or ten per cent. of his income at the outside, while one of the middle class must devote 25 per cent., and a labourer 40 or 50 per cent. of his earn ings to the same purpose. Besides, the former is en abled to evade the responsibility, if he thinks proper. He may restrict his consumption within the nar rowest limits, or, if he thinks proper, re tire to the Continent, and expend the pro ceeds of his estate, or the dividends of his stock, without paying a single shilling for Customs or Excise duties. The middle-class man and the operative are unable to cut down their ex penditure on those articles of primary necessity, nor can they abandon the scenes of their daily labours. They must have their tea or coffee and sugar, for breakfast, beer or spirits at dinner, and cigars or tobacco in the evening. They cannot sit down to a single meal, or enjoy a single comfort or luxury, on which a tax has not been rigidly enforced, and goods of inferior quality are taxed as highly as the very best that can be procured. The half-starved sempstress must pay at the rate of 2s. 2id. per pound on her bohea, the first cost of which was probably not r more than 4d., while the countess will only pay the same on the high-priced pekoe or souchong. The former contributes at the rate of 800 or 900 per cent. on the value of the article, while the latter only gives 70 or 80 per cent. on the same. On close examination, it will be found that the same rule is observed throughout the entire system. The necessaries of the many are taxed at a much higher rate than the luxuries of the few, and the great burden is therefore imposed on those who are least able to sustain it. Such a system would never enter into the mind of any lawgiver or financier, if he were about to provide the ways and means for the national expenditure ; but the iniquitous sys tem has grown up by degrees until it has reached its present monstrous proportions. The various taxes were imposed from time to time, according to the exigencies of the moment, generally during war periods. The legislative body was composed of men in the possession and enjoyment of large fortunes, who desired to lay the greatest portion of the charge upon their humbler brethren. The real amount was not so easily detected, as if there were a more direct application; it seldom entered into the consideration of a labouring man to question the justice or propriety of his being obliged to devote so large a portion of his earnings to public purposes, or if the question was raised, he was speedily silenced by the specious fallacies put forward by interested parties. The eyes of the people are at length opened to the iniquities that have been practised ; they will no longer remain contentedly to be fleeced at the will of a Minister sustained by an obedient and subser vient majority. The voice of public opinion will be heard, and must be respected in high places. The necessary concessions must be made, and chief amongst these will be a speedy revision of the fiscal system— the total abolition of indirect taxation, and the sub stitution of a direct tax on accumulated and realised properties, calculated according to the actual capitalized value thereof. DEPARTURE OF THE COURT P ROM OSBORNE POE WINDSOR CASTLE (THIS DAT ) .—We un d e rstand that her Majesty and Prince Albert, accompan i ed by the Royal children, and attended by the La dy in Waitin g , th e H on . Mi sses K er r and Dawson, Major- General Bowles (Muter of the Household), Major- General Wemyss (Equerry in Waiting), Lieutenant- Colonel F. 11. Seymour (Equerry to the Prince), Colonel Bulkeley Drummond (Groom in Waiting), and the Rev. H. M. Birch (tutor to the Prince of Wales), were to leave Osborne this morning, and cross to Gosport in the Fairy, Royal yacht, and thence by special train of the South-Western Railway to Windsor Castle. The Court is expected to arrive at Windsor Castle about five o'clock, where the Queen will shortly dispense her hospitality to a dis tinguished circle. THE SUICIDE IN BBYDGES-STREET.-Mr. Bedford held an inquest yesterday at the Bill Tavern, Welling. ton-street, Strand, on the body of Richard Bagshaw, the news-agent, who committed suicide on Sunday morning. The jury returned a verdict of " Temporary insanity." LONDON, THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Committee appointed to consider the demand made by the . Ministry for a supplementary credit to defray the expenses of the Roman expedition would, it was said, be enabled to present its report to the Assembly on Thursday, in which case the debate would probably take place on Monday next. M. DB FALLODX ) who up to yesterday was convales cent, has had a relapse, and it is doubtful whether or not he will be sufficiently recovered to take part in the approaching discussion. The Legitimatists and parti pretre are intriguing to break up the Ministry and to substitute for it one of an obscurantist character, which would enter into an alliance with Russia for the immediate restoration of the Count DE CHAMBORD by an armed intervention. It is said that they have recently been coquetting with M. DE LAMARTINE, but the great poet-states man is, we feel assured, too good a Republican, and too honest a man, to lend himself to such a nefarious scheme, notwithstanding his admitted predilection for a Russian alliance. The PRESIDENT of the Republic appears to be acting exceedingly well, and to be giv ing his support to the moderate Republican section of his Ministry. The National, which considers a Ministerial crisis as inevitable, thus comments on the criminal folly of the reactionnairee:— _ _ _ " Well, then, since the criminal folly of reactionary factions condemns France once more to the hazard and uncertainties of a convulsion; since they will fight against the revolution, and against the people and their rights; since they will substitute, in place of pacific and regular progress, the question of retrogradation to the past by compression and by violence; we cannot but feel thankful that the situation has assumed a form so clear and so defined between us and our adversaries. We should not have spontaneously taken oa ourselves the responsibility of such a struggle and its inf a llibl e conse quences. But they will drive the democracy of February to the combat, without other alternative than that of defeat or victory. Be it so! we accept a necessity, which is only dreadful for those who impose it upon us. On their head be the responsibility before the country ! On them the coat of that future which they are preparing 1 for us!" The Constitutionnel and the Ordre both state that there is every probability that the differences between Austria and Turkey will be settled without war. Austria will not suffer herself to be dragged into war by Russia if she can avoid it. The Assemblie Nationale says :—A person usually well informed affirms to us that the Government ought to recal a part of the army of Italy. It intends leaving, we are told, 10,000 men at Civita Vecchia, and a single regiment is to occupy St. Angelo, the Spaniards being about to enter Rome. All that, it is said, has been decided according to the wish of the Pope. The French Government desires to hasten on some conclusion to the affAirs of Rome, being anxious to announce, on the day of the discus sion, a solution in conformity with the will of the majority who desire the proprio motu. PARIS BOURSE.—TIIISDAY, OCT. e.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY. The Presburger Zeitung publishes the following official account of the terms on which Comorn sur rendered to the Imperialists : " 1. The departure of the garrison is allowed without arms: the swords of the officers are to remain in their possession. To those officers who formerly served in the Imperial army passports for abroad will be granted: those whom passports do not suit will be freely dismissed to their homes, with the exception of such as present themselves voluntarily to the authorities. The Honved officers, that is, the officers who have not served before, will be allowed to reside unmolested in their homes, without reservation of their future employment. The private soldiers of the Imperial regiments are amnestied, and both these and such privates as have obtained the rank of officers are left at liberty. and will be subjected to no further prosecution by law. 2. Passports for abroad will be distributed to all who claim such within 30 days. 3. A month's pay for the officers, and ten days' wages for the men of the garrison, will be given in Austrian national bank notes, according to the Austrian usage of war. 4. Towards compensation for divers en gagements incurred on the part of the garrison through notes on the military chest, the sum of half a million of florins to be paid down in Austrian bank-notes. 5. Care of the crippled soldiers in Comorn, and of the sick in the hospitals. 1. Private property moveable and im moveable to be preserved inviolate. 7. Place, time, and node of laying down arms to be hereafter determined. S. All hostilities on either side to be immediately stopped. 9. The fortress will be given up according to the usage of war, and after the exchange of ratifica tions.—Pasta-Herkaly, Sept. 27, 1849.—(Signed) Hay nau, F.Z.M.; Captains Tackat, Gasparetz; Lieutenant- Colonels Medniansky, Pragay, Ratkay, Count Otto Zichy ; Colonels Paul Count Eaterhazy, John Janik, Sigmund Szabo; Colonel-Commandant Joseph von Kas- sonyi, Colonel Franz Asserman, Colonel-Commandan of the fortress George Klapka. Identical with the ori ginal.—Comorn, Sept. 29, 1849.—Szellanyi, Lieutenant- Colonel, Chief of the Staff." According to an official communication from the head-quarters at Acs, the occupation of Comorn by the Austrian troops began on the 2d. The same journal (which is the organ of HAYNAU) states that Vienna will shortly be relieved from the state of siege. A letter from Vienna of the 3d says— " The differences between Austria w and the Porte ap pear, thank Heaven, to have taken a satisfactory turn. The representative of the Porte went yesterday to declare the intentions of his Government not to embroil itself with Austria on the subject of the Hungarian refugees, and to give the latter every satisfaction consistent with the laws of humanity. The Turkish Ambassador re mains here at his post; he has not received his passports, as has been reported in some quarters." FUAD EFFENDI, the Ambassador from the SULTAN to the Emperor of Russia, has passed through the Hungarian territory of the Bukowina, en route for St. Petersburgh. The Austrian Lloyd, has published an attack on Lord PALMERSTON for the support which he has given to Turkey ; the Freese, on the contrary, urges on the Austrian Government the necessity of not persevering in the unjust demand of the extradition of the refugees. The following is a translation of a letter from Gen. Wrsoccr, commanding the Polish Legion in the service of Hungary, now at Widdin, addressed to an officer sent to him to Constantinople, in answer to the proposal of the Divan, that the officers and soldiers of the legion should embrace the Mussulman religion as a condition of the protection of the SULTAN against the demands of the Emperor of RusslA:: " WIDDIN, SEPT. 19, 1849. "Dear Bielinski,—l received your letter from Con. stantinople, written visibly under the first impression, and when your thoughts were engrossed with the ono only object of saving us. No, it cannot be, we cannot listen to the proposition of the Turks, for it is impossible to enter upon a compromise with our consciences. If we look upon a man as infamous who changes his poli tical creed for the sake of selfish motives, what wouid we have to say of him who, for the sake of safety would change the creed of his fathers? " Moreover, you must remember that we do not stand here in a private capacity, but that we represent our whole nation. Are we, then, permitted to bring, by cowardice, an eternal stain upon the cha rac t er o f our people? What would say the world? What would say posterity? No I once mere, nol Happen what may, we shall not tarnish the Polish name. I request you, in my name, and in the name of the whole legion, not to enter into negotiation with the Turks upon this subject; for, by such an act, the Turks would bring upon themselves and upon us an eternity infamy. " As regards your question, how you have to act with reference to the Sultan and to his government, do all you can to save this handful of men; but mind, that our country, the honour of our name, are foremost—our safety is a secondary matter. "I embrance your most sincerely, (Signed) " JOSEPEI WYSOCKI." PRUSSIA. The Prince of PRUSSIA has been appointed Military Governor of Westphalia. CENTRAL GERMANY. The convention between Prussia and Austria relative to the new Provisional Federal Government was signed on the 30th of September, at Vienna, by Count BERNSTORP and Prince SCHWARTZBNBURG. A space of ten days was allowed for its ratification by the two powers. The convention is based on the Prussian plan in all its fundamental points, the jurisdiction of the Central Federal Commission being so well defined as to render impossible any usurpa tion of the powers of the ancient Diet. The project of a federative Gertnan state on the basis of the alliance of the three Kings appears to have been entirely abandoned. It is announced that in so far as respects the arrangement between Prussia, Austria, and Bavaria, the two first powers have agreed to name together the President of the definitive Central Power; but if they oannot agree, then Bavaria and Saxony will also have a deliberative voice. WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 10, 1849, DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. The Speller Gazette declares that the Danish Go vernment is resolved not to consent to any proposition for a division of Schleswig. A letter from Hamburgh of the sth states that the populations of Schleswig-Holstein continued to dis play strong hostility to the mixed administration (Danish and Prussian) established in execution of the armistice. They persisted in paying the taxes to the German administration, the consequence of which was that portions or the public service were seriously embarrassed. The Supreme Court of Appeal had declared that it would not recognise the mixed administration as legal ; and when new functionaries were appointed to different towns the people rose in insurrection. A monster meeting had been held at Stapelholm, at which resolutions were passed, de claring that no obedience should be paid to the mixed commission. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. Yesterday was observed as a strict holiday at Liver pool, consequently there is nothing to report in either the Cotton or Share Market. The corn trade in Mai k -lane this um:min: is firm There are good arrivals of foreign oats. Our continental advises read somewhat better, and it is a peoof of the greater confidence felt that the respec tive Governments are getting their loans more readily than was expected. We wish it were otherwise, but it would really appear that the ipeople of the various con tinental nations are to be for ever subject to the oppressive burden of augmented debts, and that constitutional reform is almost impossible. The Pied mont( se loan, and it is the least objectionable of the whole, even if it be not one to which we should abso lutely wish every success, has been taken at 82i for a five per cent. security. In the London Gazette of last evening appeared an Order in Council, in pursuance of the authority given by the recent Act of Parliament, for regulating the carriage of passengers in merchant-vessels. The order in question relates merely to what may be termed the social arrangements of emi grant ships, such as the hours for meals and rest, the extinguishing of lights, the intercourse between the crew and the passengers, &c.; but there are probably very few who have yet seen the Act itself, and which supplies a great want, and will tend, we hope, to relieve us from the opprobrium cast upon us in many instances by parties on the other side of the Atlantic, of caring nought for the poorer classes, who abandoned their country, provided we were well quit of them. This sweeping censure, however, is not wholly deserved, for the extraordinary and im petuous tide of expatriation almost defied con trol at the period of the Irish famine; and it is now, when opportunity offers for the applica tion of experience and for quiet legislation, that the eIF rt is making to repair the former larches. We may usefully note that in the Act recently passed pro vision is made for the survey of emigrant vessels in order to test their sea-worthiness; that the construction of the decks Is to be attended to; that only one person to every two tons shall be carried, or for every twelve or fifteen clear superficial feet, accord ing to the destination and the length of the voyage, while a proper time is to be computed for the latter, viz , 15 weeks to the Cape, 20 weeks to Western Australia, 22 weeks to other parts of Aus tralia, 24 to New Zealand, to North America, except the west coast, 10 weeks, &c. For ventilation and safety in case of wreck, the following regulations are to be en forced:— " For the purpose of insuricg a proper supply of light and air in every passenger ship,' the passengers shall at all times during the voyage (weather permitting) have free access to and from the between decks, by the whole of each hatchway situate over the space appropriated to the use of such passengers: provided always, that if the main hatchway be not one of the hatch ways appropriated to the use of the passengers, or if the natural supply of light and air through the same be in any manner unduly impeded, it shall be lawful for the emigration officer at the port of clearance to direct such other provision to be made for affording light and air to the between decks as the circumstances of the case may, in the judg ment of such officer, appear to require; and in case of noncompliance with any such directions, the owner, charterer, or master of such ship shall be liable, on such conviction as hereinafter is mentioned, to the payment of a penalty not exceeding fifty pounds nor less than twenty pounds, sterling; provided, also, that no passen ger ship,' having on board as many as one hundred passengers shall clear out or proceed on her voyage with out having on board an adequate and proper ventilating apparatus, to be approved by the e migration ofheer at the port of clearance, and fitted to his estisfaciton, " And be it enacted, that every 'passenger ship" shall carry a number of boats, according to the following scale (that is to say) :—Tao boats for every ship of one hundred tons and upwards; three boats for every ship of two hundred tons and upwards, in case the number of passengers shall exceed fifty; four boats for every ship of five hundred tons and up wards, in case the number of passengers shall exceed two hundred: provided always that one of such boats shall in all cases be a long boat and one shall be a properly fitted life-boat, and that each of such boats shall be of a suitable size, to be ap proved by the emigration officer at the port of clearance, and shall be staworthy, and properly supplied with all requisites for use: provided also that there shall likewise be on board two properly fitted life buoys, kept ready at all times for immediate use. And be it enacted, that no passenger ship' shall be cleared out or proceed to sea until it shall be proved to the satisfaction of the officer from whom a clearance of such ship may be demanded that she is manned with a proper complement of seamen for the intended voyage. " And be it enacted, that no passenger ship' shall clear out or proceed on her voyage if there shall be on board as cargo any gunpowder, vitriol, guano, green hides, or any other article likely to endanger the safety of the ship or the health or lives of the pas sengers, or if any part of the cargo shell be on deck." Under these and other stringent, but highly proper conditions, we trust to hear no more of that wholesale destruction of life, both from fever or foundering, which has so often appalled us. The English Funds aro very steady again this morn ing, but there is no life in the market. A feature seems to be the upward tendency of the floating debt, and hereby we have a very fair criterion of the value of money.

By the Levant mail we have received Constantino ple journals to the 24th, and Athens journals to the 28th ult. inclusively. The Journal de Constantinople has the following on the sul jest of the Hungarian refugees:—" Nothing new has taken place relative to the question of the extradition of the political refu gees who are at Widdin. Things remain in statu quo until the return of FUAD EFFENDI, who has pro ceeded to St. Petersburgh with the reply of the Porte. It is hoped that the wisdom of the Governments in terested in the question will succeed in settling it without injury to the rights or dignity of either of them." There is nothing else of interest in these journals. THE ♦UTOGRAPH LETTER OE THE CZAR TO THE SULTAN The following is said to be the substance of the letter addressed by the Emperor NlcnoLAs to the SULTAN, and transmitted by Prince RADZIYIL : " The revolutionary element has been suppressed. The Hungarian war is at an end. I send to you my aide-dc-camp, who will submit to you various demands calculated to insure the maintenance of order." The reply of the SULTAN to this arrogant epistle (forwarded by FUAD EFFENDI) is no less laconic ; its tenor is pretty nearly as follows : " Your aide-de•camp has demanded from me the ex • tradition of the Hungarian refugees. This demand being of a nature to cast odium on the two Powers, I entreat your Imperial Majesty not to insist on the point." ITALY. The Legge, of Turin, of the sth, gives a report of the sitting of the Chambers on the preceding day, consequently the rumour that they were dissolved on the 4th was premature. The remains of CHARLES ALBERT have been landed at Genoa, and were received by the population with every mark of respect. IRELAND. DISMISSAL OF TUE ORANGE MAGISTRATES, (BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.) DUBLIN, TUESDAY EVENING.—Lord Clarendon's letter to the Lord Chancellor, stating the grounds upon which his Excellency recommends the latter high functionary to dismiss from the commission of the peace tha magistrates implicated in the affray at Dully's Brae, is made public this evening. After recapitulating the facts of the murder as elicited from Mr. J. Bes-,vick's report, Lord Claren don concludes as follows :—" His Excellency has learned from the official report made to him that Lord Roden attended on that occasion in his magis terial capacity, took part in the proceedings, made a speech on the subject, and voted with the majority of the magistrates in refusing to take information. This proceeding on the part of his Lordship appears to his Excellency to be deserving of grave observation." Lord Roden had, on the 12th of July, as above stated, identified himself to a certain extent with the proceedings of the armed assemblage of Orange men who came on his demesne, and it involved him in the responsibility attached to them. He was aware that his conduct in this respect had been publicly arraigned, much of the evi dence given before Mr. Beswick tended directly to implicate him as abetting and encouraging ithe proceedings of an unlawful assembly, and be was himself examined as a witness in the course of the inquiry. It appears to his Excellency de structive of public confidence in the administration of justice, that a magistrate thus circumstanced should take part in the judicial consideration of pro ceedings, the object of which was to determine the complicity or otherwise of certain parties in the act of an assembly charged to be illegal, which lie him self had sanctioned and encouraged, and i❑ whose offence against the law, if any had been committed, he became a party directly concerned. On a full consideration of the entire case the Lord-Lieute nant has come to the conclusion that a due regard fur the future preservation of the peace in the dis trict in question, and for the administration of jus tice therein in a manner which will be entitled to public confidence and respect, imperatively requires that the magistrates whose conduct be has thus noticed should no longer discharge the important functions and duties of that office. MARYLEBONE REGISTRATION. (THIS DAY.) The revision of the lists for Paddington was finished to-day, but not a single question of any import ance was mooted for the decision of the Barrister. No agents were present, and the only parties in attendance were the overseers and the other parish authorities to whom the lists are entrusted, thus showing the entire absence of party spirit in the borough. COURT CIRCULAR. OSBORNE, TUESDAY. Th e Queen and Prince took their usual early walk this morning, in the park and grounds of Osborne. The younger members of the Royal Family walked and rode as usual. There was no addition to the royal dinner party yesterday. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, attended by Lady Anna Maria Dawson, Baroness de Speth, and Sir George Couper, left Tonbridge Wells at nine o'clock yesterday morning, travelled by a special train on the South• Eastern Railway to the Bricklayers' Arms station, and afterwards proceeded to her resi dence, Clarence House, St. James's, where her Royal Highness arrived at eleven o'clock. A Cabinet Council was held yesterday afternoon at the Foreign-office. It was attended by Lord John Russell, the Lord Chancellor, the Marquis of Lans downe, Sir George Grey, Viscount Palmerston, Earl Grey, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Sir Francis Baring, Lord Campbell, the Right Hon. H. Labou chere, and the Earl of Carlisle. The Council sat two hours. Dispatches were sent off yesterday evening from the Colonial-office for the Governor of the Cape of Good Hope; and also for the Governors of St. Helena and the Gambia. SUDDEN DEATH of MR. G. ANSON We deeply regret to have to announce the sudden demise of Mr. George Edward Anson. The infor mation reached Buckingham Palace yesterday morn ing, the messenger having called at that royal resi dence on his way to Osborne, to acquaint her Majesty , and his Royal Highness Prince Albert with the dis tressing news. We learn from the best source that Mr. Anson arose at his accustomed early hour on Monday morn ing, apparently in the enjoyment of his usual health, when, at precisely one o'clock, he was seized with a fit, and never afterwards exhibited any consciousness. He remained in a lethargic state until ten minutes before four, when he breathed his last—his wife and a few immediate relatives being present. It will be recollected by our readers that Mr. Anson attended the Queen and the Prince Consort through out their visit to Ireland, and remained in the royal suite at Balmoral, and accompanied her Majesty as far as Derby on the return to Osborne. At Derby the deceased gentleman took leave of her Majesty and the Prince Consort, to repair to Needwood, in Staf fordshire, to join Mrs. Anson ; and it was there his death took place. Mr. G. E. Anson was second son of the Hon. and Very Rev. Frederic Anson, Dean of Chester and Prebendary of Southwell, and brother of the Reve rend Canon of Windsor. He was born on the 14th May, 1812, and was consequently in his 38th year. In October, 1837, he married the Hon. Georgiana Mary Harbord, eldest daughter of the third Lord Suffield, by whom he leaves a youthful family. Mr. Anson was for a lengthenel period private secretary :to Viscount Melbourne, when that noble man was occupying the highest office in the state, and was recommended by the deceased Viscount to fill the appointment of private secretary to his Royal Highness Prince Albert on his alliance with her Majesty. He discharged that delicate offic e t o th e high satisfaction of the Prince and her Majesty ; and when Sir Henry Wheatley, who had long held the post of treasurer and privy purse to the Queen, re signed that position at Court, Mr. Anson succe(ded to the duties of the office. The deceased will be lamented by a very numerous and distinguished circle of friend, and the families of the Earl and Countess of Lichfield, the Hon. F. and Lady Anne Charteris, the Hon. Colonel and Mrs. George Anson, Lord and Lady Waterpark, Sir William Anson, &c., will be placed in mourning by his unexpected demise, MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY. CORN - EXCHANGE —WEDNESDAY An unusually small supply of English Wheat was oa offer in to-day's market. Still, however, the demand, owing to the small numb er o f b u y ers in attendance, was in a very inactive state, at barety last week's quota., Lions. The imports of foreign Wheat this we e k h ave been confined to 3,260 quarters. .Fine dry q ua li t i es were in moderate request, a t fell pr ices. In the mid. cluing and inferior kinds exceedingly little business was passing. W . e were but scant il y supplied with Barley. Fine malting parcels sold freely ; other descriptions slowly, at about stationary prices. In Malt so little was doing that the currencies were almost nominal. The first supply was 1,510 quarters. The supply of Oats from most parts was tolerably good. Sound Corn was in fair re quest at full prices. Damp parcels hung on hand. Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and Meal, were very dull. A fair average amount of business was transacted in Flour, at fully late rates. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Oats. Malt. I Flour. English •. 5c0tch........ Irish ........ Foreign ......

The unfortunate young man, Henry Bathurst Monk' house, was brought up before Mr. Beadon this day, st half-past two, charged with attempting to murder his father. Very few persons were outside the Court, and but few were admitted within its confined and forbidding precincts.
