JULY 5, 1849. GOD be thanked ! if the military strength of Rus sian and Austrian despotism is against, the heart of England - is with, the Hungarians. Our earnest ap peal in behalf of the refugees, near Fulkstone, has already been responded to Effictively, and we doubt not but that the hospitality and sympathy of the Bri tish people will gradual]) and adequately betray itself in such an, accumulation of contrihutions as may form an amount worthy of so noble a Testimonial. In another column will be found the commencement of a list of subscriptions in aid of the heroic Magyars—a catalogue, which already, brief as it is, embraces all classes of the community. The honest artizan and ' the nobtemau, the representative of the middle :classes and the generous-hearted labourer— all contributing in their several petypcartiwas to assist men so deserving and so unfortunate. Ilaving once begun this Testimonial it would only be right for those individuals who sympathise in its object—and we belie‘e there are thou-ands who do so, not merely in the metropolis but in the provinces—to aid it in some measure, no matter how small, so that the generosity of the English p, pulation may not be misconstrued by an insufficient collection. Upon this point, however, we entertain no feelings of anxiety. We are too fully convinced that the multitude most cordially yearn to witness the triumph o f Liberty on the banks of the Danube to doubt for one instant that they will welcome with enthusiasm an opportunity of displaying, in deed-as well as in word, the depth and earnestness of their sentiments. Those who may inadvertently be unacquainted with the circumstances in which this embryo Testimonial originated will find them fully explained by turning back to The Sun of TuTuesda y evening. They will' ob serve i n the la which this project was first suggested edi a hngarticle in narrative t of the troubles which have cond uc t e d to e shores o f England a band of Hungarian Hussars—who after deserting from RADETZKY, and cro ss i ng sword s with the German oppressors of their country, hav e evaded the servitude which awaited them after the disasters of Novara, by Ira *sing France, and passing the Channel, and seeking a momentary shelter on the soil of Britain. It sill be remarked moreover that in suggesting a subscrip tion in aid of these patriotic fugitives, we did so not oidEon the score of humanity and as a token of nation-11 hospitAlitx, but as a means of practically testifying the sympathy with which the people of these islands regard the s ublime but unequal struggle `between the heroes of Hungary and the dastardly dragoons of Despotism. How vividly do we bear in recollection the scorn and the calumny showered upon the Provisional Government of the Magyars when the war of subjugation was first proclaimed from the council chambers at Schoenbrunn—when the Prince Marshal WINDISCLIGRATz, with his reputation THE 111374; blackened by the bombardment of Vienna, and blush ing with the carnage of the Viennese, advanced with a vast army against the men who bad dared to re quire the preservation of their immemorial rights — when the Ban JenLecuton, leading on an irregular horde of Croatians, desolated the corn- fields and vine yards of the Danube —when the Hungarian Execu tive was compelled to fly beyond the inaccessible morasse s surrouneing Debre4n, and the brand of Hungary seemed broken, and her spirit conquered, and her patriotism extinguished ! At that period even Hope appeared to have vanished from the cause of the vanquished. Scarcely one voice was raised to deprecate the execration pronounced against the M'gyars by their assailants. Not one hand was extended to extricate them from their abyss of calamities. We remember that time not merely vividly, but bitterly and painfully. With hardly a single exception, the Press in this country applauded the Austrians to the echo—to the echo of the German newspapers! According to them, an atrocious rebellion was crushed. According to them, JELLACHICII was a greater ALBEMARLE, and WIN DISCHGRATZ a more illustrious MONTECUCULI. Ac cording to our contemporaries, both native and foreign—our contemporaries both of London and of Vienna—the Cabinet of Debreczin were a group ot cut-throats and incapables—men who, to the v olatility of adventurers, added the cruelty of fanatice and the heartlessness engendered by ComMll- And so the slanders were repeat en 'rom mouth to mouth, from journal to journal, until ;he hour of vengeance had arrived, and the truth blazed forth in the splendid victories of BEM and the dazzling proclamations of KOS4UTH. Never in the history of heroic races has the annalist had to record a more wonderful or more glorious ebullition of nationality. The Hungarians rose to a man—nobles, peasants, traders, gentlemen, students, ecclesiastics , artizans, all joined the national standard. They blew to the winds every preceding difference of opinion, I and, for the salvation of their mother land, became one in heart, in hand, in c ause, in obedience. Under Beet they very speedily accustomed themselves to victory ; and Bust w as nobly seconded by his Polish lieutenants, conspicuous among whom were GEORGEY and DEMBINSKY. From the most obscure sutler in the army of liberation up to the superior officers at head-quarters ; from the private soldier to the Commander- in. Chief, every Hungarian made his will subservient to the dictates of one intelligence, to the impulse of one patriotic heart, to the ardour, and the devotion, and the self-sacrifice, and the genius of one man. That man was KOSSUTH. Di rected by him the flood of disasters was soot, turned, and Europe, at first with incredulity, then with astonishment, and at last with admiration, beheld that flood rolled back from the gates of Debreczin to the walls of Presburg. All this, moreover, the Hungarians accomplished unassisted, except by GOD and their own valour. They humbled the remorseless JELLACHICH to the dust. They dispersed their enemies among the mountains of Transylvania and upon the plains of the Danube; they drove some in confusion beyond the frontiers of Wallachia, and compelled the grand army of Impe rialists to fall back in dismay from fortress to fortress, from city to city, from river to river, until they stood almost within gunshot of the Austrian capital. The veteran soldiers of Germany found themselves no match for the raw recruits of the in experienced Hungarians. One after another the most renowned generals in the service of the EM PEROR were compelled to retire from the command ot his forces, covered with disgrace and infamy. Wier- DISCIIGRATZ was followed by WELDEN, and WELDEN by HAYNA.U. The faineant FERDINAND, after a reign of unexampled atrocity, found the curse of outraged Hungary falling around him in many appalling evidences, and, with the sceptre of RUDOLPH shaken from his palsied grasp, abdicated in a paroxysm of terror and confusion. While the very foundations of the Austrian empire trembled on the verge of destruction under the throne of his youthful successor, the Mag yars consummated the miracle of their emancipation by refusing their allegiance to a blood-stained dynasty, and upon the ruins of their monarchical institutions erected the fane of Republicanism. As a crowning act of justice, the liberated nation paid the noblest homage to the genius and patriotism of its Liberator, proclaiming LUDWIG KOSSUTH its first President. Since then Austria, in despair, has sought the assistance of Russia, and the two Despotisms are advancing with enormous armies to trample out the newly enkindled flame of Hungarian liberty. It is at this moment, when the glorious children of Hungary are drawing their swords from their scabbards, once more, to fight single-handed with the legions of the Austrian EMPEROR and of the Russian AUTOCRAT—th , At we call upon our countrymen to aid those Magyar refugees at Folkstone. We appeal to them to enhance this Testimonial to strangers, or rather, we should say to brothers in misfortune—to enable these sixty-five Hungarians dussars to place their lives at the service of the land of their nativity. Remember—the Testimonial is made in the name of English sympathy for Hunga rian patriotism. nism. and consequently partially useless for bank ing purposes. Scotland, with less than three millions of inhabitants, has eighteen banks, —six of which have received Royal charters—and has paid-up capital to the amount of 13,000,0001. In other words, there is 7s. 6d. paid-up banking capital for every Irishman, while each Scotchman has 41. 10s. to look to. These simple facts sufficiently explain the comparative prosperity and distress of the sister kingdoms. We are rejoiced to find that the Scotch system of bai,king, which has produced such happy results, is to be extended into this country also, that England will speedily sand Ireland, we trust, ere long) receive benefits such as those which Scotland has already obtained from these admirable institutions. The British Bank has already nearly filled its share list, and business will soon be commenced under a Royal charter. The names of the parties who have accepted office will afford a sufficient guarantee for the in tegrity of the mana..Tment. The Hon. Member tor Glasgow, for so many years the e.bte and indefatigable Secretary of the Board of Trade, is ap p inted Governor ; associated with him are men in every way worthy of confidence. There will then be a sound administration of a sound principle, and the result will be as profitable to the shareholdera as it will be beneficial to the public. The " cash credits," which form such prominent features in the Scottish system of banking, will for the first time be intro duced into the metropolis, temporary advances will be made on securities which will not even be looked at by the managers of other banks, interest will be allowed on deposits, and, in fact, the Scotch system, which has stood the te-t of a century and a half's ex perience, will be fully carried out. Many precautions will be taken to guard not only the customers and creditors, but also the shareholders of the bank from any loss. "Business is not to be commenced until half the capital has been paid up." This will provide ample funds for every purpose, while the shareholder is ensured the control and supervision of affairs in which he is so intimately concerned by clauses in the charter which provide, among other things, " that general meetings of the , proprietors shall be held at least once in every year ; and extraordinary general meetings, on a requisition of any nine shareholders possessing collectively twenty-one shares in the bank." One-fourth of the number of directors are to retire annually, who shall not be eligible for re-election until after twelve months. Nu advances are to be made on the security of shares in the bank. There is also to be a monthly publication of the assets and liabilities of the bank, an annual; audit of the acccunts, and a communi cation of the creditors' report and the balance sheet to every proprietor. These would afford ample security against individual shareholders being called upon to satisfy demands against the corporation ; but there is, in addition, a clause pro vidirg for " the winding up the affairs of the bank, if at any time it be found that the losses amount to one fourth of the paid-up capital." This salutary pre caution will at once obviate the objections which many persons have entertained to become shareholders in joint-stock banks, and will practically be equivalent to the partnership en commodite, the advantages of which have been recently so strongly set forth. There is, perhaps, no element of greater importance to the attainment of national prosperity than the banking facilities afforded to the various interests throughout a country. Wherever a sound, judicious, and extensive system of banking is carried on, there also will be found a happy and contented people ; full and remunerative employment is afforded to all who are both able and willing to work ; industry is seldom, if ever, deprived of its legitimate rewards ; the national capabilities are fully and completely developed; nothing affording a fair and reasonable prospect of profit is neglected ; the soil is properly cultivated and brought to the highest state of ferti ity ; manufactures of every description are duly attended to. All labour for the general advantage, and few, if any, drones are to be found among the busy population. There is neither time for, nor temptation to, the commission of crime ; no political excitement is discoverable—why should there be any desire to overturn or to alter a system o' government under which rational liberty and fai: prosperity are enjoyed. But how great a contras is afforded by a nation, in which there is a deficienci of banking capital. There the best and most promising speculations are neglected, the very life- blood of industry. is wanting ; no great or pea manent ame liorations are attempted; agriculture is on the lowest scale ; no present advantage can be relinquished tur any deferred beartit, however great; every energy is directed towards meeting the pros , nt exi gency ; nothing is thought of the future ; the only real capital —labGur —is suffered to remain waste and unproductive. The population, scantily fed on the very lowest element of subsistence, are ripe for any offence that may be suggested; the people have, unfortunately, but too much leisure time at their disposal, and THE FRENCH REPUBLIC We have received the Paris papers of yesterday .

"General Oudinot addresses to the Government in telligence of the carrying of a new bastion (No. 8) on the night of the 29,h ult. The telegraphic dispatch of the General will make known to you the details of this affair, which perhaps is decisive. The enemy has lost a good many men, and demands to capitulate. I re ceive this instant from General Oudinot the following:— " The dispatch announcing the determination of the Assembly to cease defending the city, the demand for a suspension of hostilities, and the arrival of the deputa tion of the Roman municipality to the French head quarters, was communicated yesterday.' " M. de Corcelles continues, am about to start for head-quarters, which I left yesterday afternoon at three o'clock, with Messrs. d'Harcourt and de Rayneval.

" Satan finds some mischief still For idle bands to do." Political discontent and private want lead to general disturbance, which consummates the ruin of the country, and involves the people in the most heart rending misery and destitution. Scotland and Ireland may perhaps be regarded as of the most powerful illustrations of the na tural results of a sufficiency or deficiency of banking accommodation. We find the former, despite its many natural disadvantages, the inclemency of its climate, the sterility of its soil, and its inferior geo a g li ra the phical position, rivalling evenns naturally England cold tive command high itself in and arts unproductive ci c v o ilize i dlile h La e rents—rents which are not merely promised, but which are invariably Tile liquidated with the utmost punctua lit y . farming is of the highest order, and abundant crops reward the labour expended in cultivation. " Scotch stewards," acquainted with the system of agriculture pursued in their native land, are eagerly sought for by gentlemen anxious to establish model farms on their own estates, thus exhibiting in the strongest point of view the p er f ect i on in the science that has been already attained. Glasgow—the Scot tishece Manchester—Paisley, and other towns too nume rous to mention, sufficiently attest the national pro. gress in commerce and manufactures. To what then are these various advantages to be ascribed ? Why has Scotland become so justly celebrated for her agriculture, her commerce, her manufacture ? Simply because she is equally celebrated for her system of "banking," because banking accommodation, on a sound and judicious principle, is afforded - A court-martial was held on Tuesday for the trial of four soldiers accused of having resisted the gen darmerie in their attempt to arrest Sergeant BOICHOT and convey him to Vincennes previous to his election for the Legislative Assembly. As the court-martial was nominated by General CHANGARNIEa„the con viction of the unfortunate men and their condemna tion to death followed as a matter of course.

Have courage then—persevere ; but hasten as much as possible your entrance into Rome, fur with the impatient and wavering character of our -,ation, you know how much depends on a prompt resul , . Adieu, my dear General, receive this fresh expression of my very th!vot,,d sentiment*. " RULLIERE."

We have received intelligence from Lisbon to the 29th of June. The defiance hurled at the people by the misguided QUEEN in appointing COSTA CABRAL to the ministry, has caused an intense sensa tion. The announcement of the new appointment was made in both Chambers by COSTA CABRAL him self. In making the announcement to the Peers, he said that the programme of his administration would be economy, justice, and liberty, and implored the Chamber not to prejudge it, but to await its acts before pronouncing upon its merits or demerits. Count TAIPA said that the appointment of the new Cabinet was an act of treachery and an insult to the country. At its head was placed a man who had plunged the nation into a civil war, which had brought down the unjust interference of three foreign powers, and therefore none but one who to the head of a fool added the heart of a traitor could regard it as anything but a calamity and an outrageous provocation to the country. Count LOVRADIO, Viscounts FONTE, ARCADA, and SA DA I3ANDEIRA. and several other peers, among whom was M. FONSECA MAGATHOES, expressed themselves to pretty nearly the same effect. Count THOMAR did not reply to these attacks, but merely repeated his re quest that they would suspend their judgments. The new Ministry has commenced proceedings with an amnesty for all political offenders. From the osten tatious parade made of this pretended act of cle mency, one would be led to suppose that it had reference to some thousands of delinquents. It ap plies, however, to about half a dozen individuals at most, implicated in an alleged conspiracy, conviction of which could have entailed no heavier punishment than a short incarceration, and it is therefore su premely ridiculous. The Finance Minister has like wise presented his own particular programme to the Corte.s. Besides the usual assurance of the greatest economy, &c., it contains a hint about increased taxation, which, if carried ;into effect, may lead to very great troubles. Our accounts from Oporto are to the 30th, at which period C HARLES A LBERT was extremely ill. The Queen of PORTUGAL had sent her physician to attend him. GERMANY AND THE NORTHERN STATES. BADEN. A desperate battle was fought on the 29th between the Prussians and the insurgents, in the neighbour hood of the villages of Malasch and Muggensteine, between Carlsrhue and Rastadt. The insurgents were defeated. General PEUCKER has taken pos session of Baden-Baden. The French Government has received the follow ing telegraphic dispatch from Strasburg, dated the 3d inst.:— " Mieroslawski arrived at Basle on the 2d, with staff, and left almost immediately for Lichstall, in the canton of Basle (campagne). Marder, the ex-Minister of Finance of the Provisional Government at Baden, was arrest , d the same day at Basle, and his property seques tered." SIGAL fuls succeeded MIEROSLAWSKI in the COM ma9d cf the insurgents. The Frankfort Post Gazette states that the Prussians have taken possession of the outwork-) of the fortifi cations of Rastadt. The Prussians have shot several of their prisoners. ITZSTEIN, RAVEAUX, SIMON, VOGT, and SCHULER are among the Germans who have taken refuge in Switzerland. AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY. _ _ FALL OF RAAB. The Austrians are in possession of Raab. It was rumoured in Vienna that the Imperialists had taken it by assault after a desperate battle; it appears, how ever, that such was not the case. The Hungarians evacuated the town in an orderly manner, and al though there was a little cannonading in the rear of the retreating army, there was no mischief done, The LON'DON, TRURSDAY EVENING, JULY 8, Emperor of AUSTELL is now at Raab, where he has fixed his head quartets. The Hungarian head quarters are Gonayo, opposite Comoro. The Im pel iali.qs will be obliged to leave at lea t 20,000 at Raab to garrison the town and to keep open their communications. Ihe Warsaw Gazette publishes the following re port from the Russian army : " On the 17th of June our troops entered Hungary. The different columns took the following di, ection:— The 3d Infantry corps (after a division of it had gone to the relief of the main Austrian army at Presburg a march before), set out on its march under the General- Adjutant Rudiger, over Neuwark, Ofal, and Foliborg, to Lublo, where it arrived on the 18th. The 2d Infantry corps (after a division of the same had been sent to cover Cracoa), under the command of Lieutenant-General Kuprianow, was directed to Gorlica, and in two columns to the vilLges of Irbe and Konieczno. The 4th corps, under the Infantry General Czeodajew (after a division had been subtracted to occupy South Galicia and the Bukowina), set out likewise in two columns from Zmi groda to Graab, and from Duda to Kowarnick. The Commander-in• Chief of the active army was on the 6th with the column on its march to Graab, and passed the night at Szielno. This arrangement of columns was in. tended to accelerate the passage of the Carpathians, in case any resistance should be offered by the enemy. They showed themselves, however, backward to oppose us, and, with the exception of a few trifling skirmishes on the 16th and 17th, no encounter took place. On the 6;h our troops traversed the mountains in the direction Zbary and Bartfeld. On the same day Lieutenant- General Luders proposed leading his men into Transyl vania and on to Curistadt; the other part of his troops, under Lieutenant General Grotenh, lm, taking the route over Wat►a Dorua into the Bukowina and on to Bistritz."

A report has been received by the Prussian Go vernment of a brush that took place off Swinne munde, or rather off Hela, between the Prussian war steamer Adler and a Danish brig-of-war. Captain Barandon, of the former, states that he fell in with the brig eight miles S S.W. of Hela, and exchanged shots (we suppose at long rang.) for four hours and a halt; that the Adler received only three shots through her afterpart, one of which wounded a man at the helm ; and that, owing to darkness coming on, and the Danish frigate Galathea having borne down to assist the brig, he (Captain Barandon) was un fortunately compelled to discontinue the combat, and was thus prevented capturing the brig. ITALY. Intelligence has been received direct from Rome to the 30th ult., but its interest has been greatly diminished by the more recent intelligence received from Paris. It would appear, however, that French or Russian gold had been more powerful than French arms. The Assembly had been induced to reject a proposition made by MM. STERBINI and BONAPARTE, for appointing GARIB ILDI Commander in-Chief, and had determined to treat with the French. The Risorgimento, of Turin, says that the POPE has consented to maintain the constitutional regime in the Roman States. The negotiations for peace between Austria and Sardinia are broken off in consequence of the con tinually increasing demands of Austria. The Austrian Plenipotentiary has demanded, among other things, the cession of the principalities of Monaco. how can such a demand as this be reconciled with the -olernn pledge given by Austria that she sought no territorial aggrandizement ? Surely France will not permit Austria to dismember Piedmont, and obtain the command of the passes of the Alps. The Grand Duke of TUSCANY is unwilling to return to Florence until his States shall be relieved from the presence of the Austrians. MONEY and UOMAIERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUAR7 ER TO THREE. The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at about 9,000 to 10,000 bales, of which 2,000 were taken by sp. culstors, and 500 by exporters. The market was steady, and prices remained firm. Railway Shares were firm. The quantity of grain sold in the markets of the United Kingdom, which regulate the averages, was last week 73,492 qrs. of wheat, and 8,056 of oats. In a Parlia mentary return just completed we have the quantities of foreign grain of each description, and of foreign flour ,nd meal imported into the United Kingdom in each month of the years 1847 and 1848, and during the first tour months of the present year, &c. The total imports ,f grain and flour, including wheat, barley, and oats, iu the year 1847, were, 1,705,708 quarters, besides 57,882 owl. of oatmeal. In 1848 the imports were 967,056 quarters, and 6.595 cwt. • and for the first four months Ut this year they have b een 260,633 oicamart.orst, 0.. a 2,203 'Wt. Thr quantity of rye, meal, peas, beans, &c., was in 1847, 443,675 quarters; in 1848, 487,928 quarters; and ma year, to May 5, 1,120,012 quarters. The aggreg.te of all grain, including Indian corn, was, 'or 1847, 9,436,675 quarters, and of meal and flour 8 633,990 cwt. In 1848. 6,941,611 qrs., and 2,030,237 cwt. In 1849 to May sth, 3,294,450 quarters, and 1,414,330 owl., making the aggregate imports for two years and four months, 19,672,742 quarters of grain, and 12,078,557 quarters of me.4l and flour of all sorts. The average monthly price of wheat since January, 1847, was highest in July of that year, amounting to 92s 10d, and lowest on the sth May, 1849, being 44s 9d. We may add that the return published this day makes the average 44, 8d only for the last six a eeks. The proprietors of the South Sea Company have bed their half-yearly meeting this morning, and the usual dividend of per cent. has been declared. The half year's balance sheet shows the income to be 156,4291. 7s. 5d., and the balance, after payment of interest on the annuities, stock, &c., of the company, and the general expenses, was 8191. 3s. 4d. The British Post-office, it seems, in concluding the postal convention with the United States, has been un able to make provision for the safe transmission of re gistered letters between the two countries, no system of registration being in operation in the United States. rho Post-office, however, will continue to register letters for the United States, as far as the port of dispatch iu the United Kingdom, according to the present practice, but no further. The splendid new London line of packet ship South ampton, commanded by Capt. E. E. Morgan, has arrived at Portsmouth, from New York, en her way to London. She has brought over 70 cabin passengers, and 100,000 dollars in specie. By Custom-house measurement, she is 1,600 tons, and by carpenter's 1,732, being the largest packet ship that has come to the port of London from the United States. Her fittings up are splendid, particularly the main saloon. Tho state rooms are 10 'eel square, and height in proportion, being the largest and most commodious of any of the packer ships. The accommodation for steerage and second ,;lass passengers is excellent, and ventilators pass through the various compartments, keeping them pure and healthy. The berths in the steerage are different to any of the packet ships, being placed in the centre of the deck so as to allow a passage around the ship. The advantages of this plan are great, as the passengers escape the offensive odour of the bilge water, have a free circulation of air, and the officers of the ship can better prevent or detect uncleanliness. The reports from the continental markets state that ac Amstersdam on the 3d inst. the national funds were well supported, and a fair business was done in the Two and-a-Half' per Cents. Spanish Bonds were firm. At Frankfort on the 2d inst. all Austrian securities were higher, the Five per Cents. being 76k. The Berlin market on the 2d inst. was higher for all shares. From Vienna under date of the 30th ult. we are informed tha, there was no alteration in funds and shares. Bank Shares were in demand, and a moderate business was done in Foreign Securities. The news from Hungary s, ems unfortunately very much in favour of the Impe riali,ts. The English Stock Market has been very firm, but there has been scarcely any business doing. The Bear party are now endeavouring to make something of the Revenue return to be made up this evening, although it is generally admitted that the interest of the statement passed away to a great extent with the Chancellor's Bud get, and that the rumours of such a serious deficiency must be unfounded. The Board of Trade returns to the sth ult. will serve to show that the country is not doing so very badly, and we believe that since that date there is a further improvement. Consols have been 92 to it all the morning; and the New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. 924 . Bank Steck is 1944 to 1954. Exche quer-bills are 455. to 48s. premium, and India Bonds 725. to 745. premium. The dividends at the Bank of England are to be paid next Monday, the 9th instant, and not Tuesday, as stated a day or two since. The advices from Lisbon are still of a very indifferent tenor, but Portuguese Bonds do not vary much. The Old Five per Cents. are 77. Spanish Five per Cents. have been 171 to 4. Mexican Bonds are 288 4. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents realise 504. Railway Shares are quiet, and with very little alter ation from yesterday's rates, though in some instances scarcely so high.

The plaintiff in this action is a tea dealer, and defend ant resides in Eastbourne -terrace, Regents-park. The sum claimed was 31. for goods sold, and the defendant pleaded that he was not indebted. The plaintiff's attoinry said that the defendant was he honorary secretary of the Society for the Protection of Needlewomen. The defence was, he understood, that the goods had not been ordered by or for defendant, but had been ordered by a Miss Lord; if evidence to that fleet was adduced, it would afford an opportunity for reply. Evidence was then given that articles bad been or• dered from time to time and delivered at detendaner house. The orders were in the name of Mrs. Roper, tad the goods were always taken in without hesitation. Mr. Nash, a cheesemonger, was called to prove he had acted on orders given by Mrs. Roper, and had been paid with the exception of a trifling balance. There being no evidence in support of the plea, a ver dict was given for the amount claimed. The case lasted the whole of the morning, and the complaints of unfairness were mutual; the defendan, complained that the action should have been brought in the superior court, and the plaintiff admitted that having commenced the action he would willingly have aban doned it, but defendant caused a rule to be taken out. compelling him to go on with the action, or submit to judgment, as in case of a nonsuit, which would have entitled defendant to costs. The UNDER-SHERIFF, after hearing the arguments, said nothing had been urged to *hake his opinion that he could not interfere; he was bound to make a return , t the writ, and the question of costs must be left to the Court above. This case, however, presented one novel feature, that defendant had urged the proceedings on himself. Mr. NEWTON, the defendant's counsel, said the costs would now be 50/. instead of as many shillings. CRIMINAL COURT (THIS DAI OLD COURT. (Before Mr. Justice COLTMAN and Mr. Justice MAULE.) Franco Maccagnone Granatelli, commonly called Prince Granatelli, Leuis Scalia, and John Moody, surrendered to take their trial this morning under an indictment charging them with an infringement of the Foreign En listment Act, under the circumstances stated below:- - Salidore D'Amico, was also included in the indictment, but did not surrender. Sir Frederick Thesiger, Mr. Clarkson, an d Mr. Bodkin appeared as counsel for th e p rosecu tion; and Sir F. Kelly and Mr. Ballanti ne d e f en d e d Granatelli , Mr. Martin, Q.C., Leuis Scalia, and Mr. M. Chambers, Q.C., Captain Moody. Sir FREDERICK THESioER said this prosecution had been instituted by the Minister in this country of the King of the Two Sicilies against the de fendants, three of whom appeared in the Court, and one of the name of D'Ainico had not appeared, alleging against them that they had enlisted men and (quipped vessels for the purpose of warlike operations against the King of the Tw o Sicilies, the lawful Sove reign of that country, in contravention of an Act of Parliament passed in 1819, commonly called the Foreign Enlistment Act. Although the recital in that Act ap • peered to be of a more descriptive character than its provisions, and to apply more particularly to the sub jects of this country, yet, when attention was directed to the enacting parts of the Act, it would be found there were provisions sufficiently wide to embrace the ease of every person resident in this country who dared to raise troops or arm vessels for the purpose of employing them against a friendly State. It was nece s sary for him to dwell upon the policy and object of that Act of Parliament, because it was quite inix . issible to conceive anything which was more likely to disturb the friendly relations which ex isted een States, and to lead to a rupture between them, than for persons who were resident in one of the countries to raise troops or to arm vessels within its territories for the purpose of hostile operations against the dominions of the other. It was entirely from a sense of the danger of such a procedure that the Mi. nister of the King of the Two Sicilies had felt it to be his incumbeut duty to his Sovereign to bring the parties to justice charged with an infringement of the Act in criesitore Fur seine time past the various States of the Continent had te tlt cen:ulsed by revolutionary mov,enrnls. In some of item the ancient institu tion, had bee n subvert: d ; in others they had been sleeken almost to thEir foundations; in all they had been ver3 seriously endangered. The King of the Two Sicilie: had not be it exempt from what he (Sir F. Thesiger) might characterise as the prevalent spirit of the tine e. In the i,land of Sicily disturbances broke out in 1848, which ultra:tete!) , led to the establishment of an insurgent Gevetrirerent at Palermo. Of that in surgent Gevernreent the two defendants, Granatelli and Scalia, e ere the acorn diced envoys or commissioners ; and he believed that in some such character they had been received by the Minister of this country. In July, 1848, they were desirous of obtaining an armed force for the purpeses of the revolutionary Government, and with that object they cantered into an agreement with the Peninsular and Oriental SO am-packet Company to purchase from them two vessels, one of them . called the Vectis and the other the Bombay, fur which they were to give the sum of 60,0001. In that agreement the defendants Granatelli and Scalia were described as Members of Parliament, and commissioners for the Sicilian Government. The vessel Vectis was fitted out at Liverpool under the supetintendence of the defy ndent Moody; and it would appear that she was fitted out entirely as a war steamer, with the exception of her armament, which was not to be put on board in this country. She left this country on the 9th March, 1849, and made her course towards Sicily. The crew found that Palermo was under a blockade, and the vessel did not go there as she bad in tended in the first instance; but finding afterwards that it was not the fact that Palermo was blockaded, the crew steered for that port. St e was carrying English colours, but when she came near the harbour those colours were struck and those of Sicily hoisted. The Learned Counsel then preceded to state the circumstances under which the Bombay was fitted out on the same expedition, but detained by the Custom-house authorities in this country before she set out upon it. The question which the jury would have to decide would be whether the defendants, or any of them, equipped those steamers, or attempted to do so, as armed vessels to serve against the sovereign of the Two Sicilies, or whether they conspired together to accomplish that object. The trial was proceeding when we went to press. MA RLBRO'-ST RE ET—(THIS DAY.) Matilda Jones, a woman of the town, was placed at the bar, before Mr. Hardwick, charged with having stolen from the person of Mr. Edmund North, hair dresser, 12, Little Grosvenor-st ree t, a s il ver watc h, value 51. The prosecutor, an old man, about 65 years of age, stated that about eleven o'clock last night he was pro ceeding along Oxford-street, when the prisoner came up to him, and asked him to accompany her into Chapel-street. He at first refused, but after a deal of solicitation he was induced to walk with her. They had proceeded some distance down the street when, on arriving near Crown-court, the prisoner cried out, " Oh, here is a policeman." She then ran away as fast as she could. He was about pursuing her when two men came up and asked him " what was the matter?" He said, " Nothing that concerns you." They then went away, and on witness feeling for his watch he found that it had been cut from his watch-guard. He was positive the watch was safe when he first met the prisoner. He then gave information to a police-con' stable whom he met, and the prisoner was shortly after taken into custody in a public-house close by, where she was found concealed behind the door. The prisoner stoutly denied the charge, and said she never saw the prosecutor, but a former conviction having been proved against the prisoner, Mr. HAnnwicK committed her for trial. NEWMARKET RACES.
