Hungary—whether by treason, or by brute force, or by both combined, it matters not, as far as our present argument is concerned—has been invaded, des dated, and conquered, has been trodden down under the feet of a despotic coalition. One party to this great crime of cruelty and spoliation has with drawn her forces. The Russians have retired beyond the uthern boundaries of Transylvania. The Austrians have been left sole masters of the van quished country. German soldiers have garrisoned the fortresses. German civilians are already being installed in all the lucrative offices of the Administra• Lion. German captains, headed by the ever-infamous HAYNAU, have erected their military tribunals in the principal cities, to stab and strangle, to shoot and hang, to d..stroy by the musket and by the gibbet, those heroic hut unfortunate patriots who, while repelling the advance of their assailants, only afforded them the noblest examples of magnanimity. Hence forth Austria must be regarded, in its relation to Hungary, as occupying the position of a robber and an assassin. Henceforth the Austrian EMPEROR must be viewed simply and exclusively in the light of en Usurper. During the last eight hundred years Hungary has appeared in the history and on the chart of Europe as an independent nation. It has had during those eight centuries a Representation of its own, a Constitution of its own, and a Government of its own. Subject to no other kingdom beyond its frontiers, it has, throughout that long period, preserved all its popular rights intact, rights of immemorial antiquity. It is true, undoubtedly, that the royal office has been latterly filled by the reigning Sovereign of that heterogeneous assemblage of states called Austria ; but that union of the regal dignity in the person of the representative of the Hapsburg dynasty is of comparatively recent date ; and it must, moreover, be borne in recollection that it was conferred upon the descendants of RUDOLPH voluntarily by the Magyars —at first electively, and afterwards as a hereditary rank on certain conditions. Those conditions were to swear fealty to the Hungarian Constitution on the day of coronation, and to observe that solemn oath with truthfulness after coronation. Now, according to the latter stipulation, FERDINAND the Faineant forfeited the crown of St. Stephen by breaking his engagement; and according to the former stipulation FRANCIS JOSEPH, the TVonzan-Flogger, has no more right to that crown than we have, never having been selected as its possessor by the Magyars, and conse quently never having taken the requisite oath on the day of coronation. So glaring and preposterous is the folly of calling Hungary an Austrian province that it has been scouted as an absurdity by every rational juriscon. suit. One has even gone so far has to declare em phatically—" If England is a province of Hanover, then, and not any more, is Hungary a province of Austria; and King ERNEST of Hanover has, at least, as much right to the throne of England as FRANCIS JOSEPH has to that of Hungary." Indeed the relative position in which Austria stands to Hungary could not have been more felicitously indicated than by this comparison between it and the relation subsisting between Hanover and England. Besides, even sup posing FRANCIS JOSEPH to have been crowned, like his predecessor FERDINAND, with the diadem of St. Stephen, the Magyars would still retain the power possessed and exercised at intervals by them. selves during no less than six centuries, Again the sanguinary scenes of Dolly's Brae are forced upon our consideration. The blood-stained actors in that revolting tragedy have dared to threaten a renewal of their atrocities on the coming sth of November. The Orange press, the Orange magistrates, and their bigoted sympathisers, are in arms against the constituted authorities, and call for a demonstration condemnatory of the Government policy in the dismissal of Lord RODEN and his brother Orangemen from the commission of the the power of — deposing their monarch at pleasure: For it is expressly decreed in the Magna Charta of the Hungarians, namely, in the Bulla Aurea of 1222, that the people hold the right of resistance whenso ever the King or any of his successors fail to observe the terms of that ancient and venerable charter. FERDINAND (the first of Austria, the fifth of Hun gary) ceased to be king over the Hungarians so soon as his duplicity was discovered. FRANCIS JOSEPH in like manner, supposing he had been elected and crowned sovereign of Hungary (which he never has been), would ipso facto have been dethroned by drawing the sword, and causing his army to cross the frontier of his German territories. To talk of the peace. To calmly argue with the projectors and perpe trators of massacre, would be an useless waste of time ; to offer a word of argument or remonstrance to those who would countenance the cowardly slaughter of innocent childhood and feeble old age, would be worse than idle ; such monsters reason could not convince, nor kindnes s conciliate. But to that portion of the Irish public—and, thank GOD, they are still alarge majority, even in that ill-fated land —who believe murder a crime, and homicide unchris tian—who blaspheme not against religion by torturing the peaceful and love-teaching doctrine of CEIRIST into the unholy Shibboleth of faction—to them we would say—For ages has your rich and lovely island been the victim of dissension ; the demon of discord has been stalking through your land, disorganizing the social elements, and scaring from your shores that wealth which would make your starving people peaceful and happy. Arise, then, in the might and majesty of patriotism ; strengthen the power of the laws, by aiding the Executive in crushing this fell and fiendish faction. Meet in your counties, in your cities, in your towns, and call with firm and em phatic voice upon the able and enlightened states man who represents the QUREN and the laws in Ireland to persevere in the wise and firm policy he has hitherto pursued, and let these murderous fac tions be crushed at once and for ever. revolt of the Hungarians is consequently to talk sheer nonsense. As has been said very forcibly and very admirably by one of our pamphleteers—`• Eng land would not be in a state of revolt because she resisted an invasion by King ERNEST (of Hanover), and the Emperor of A.IISTRIA is, so far as Hungary is concerned, a mere invader of a foreign and inde pendent kingdom." Yet men babble about the " revolt" of the Hungarians as if the treason was on the side of the Magyars, and not on the side of the Red Emperor of AUSTRIA ! As striking an analogy exists between the English revolution of 1688 and the Hungarian revolution of 848 as between the relative position of England and Hanover and the relative position of Austria and Hun gary. King JAMES the SECOND forfeited his crown by his interference with the national Constitution. King FERDINAND the FIFTH (otherwise Emperor of Austria) forfeited his crown, not only by breaking WILLIAM BEERS, the wretched man who organized the Orange procession to the scene of murder, has had the temerity to pour forth one of his furious tirades to the LORD CHANCELLOR of Ireland on acknow ledging his Lordship's supersedeas. He commences naturally enough by pouring vituperation on the able and impartial Commissioner who investigated the horrible massacre at Castlewellan. The only way in which Mr. BEERS could damage the fair fame of Mr. BERWICK would be by afflicting him with his appro bation. fie says he did not hold the commission of the peace as " the partisan of this or any other -Go vernment ;" we can believe this truly, we can believe he did not hold his commission to aid any Govern ment in carrying out the laws ; we believe he held it rather as the partisan and instrument of a vile and wicked faction, and was allowed to hold it fifteen years too long. He says his commission was taken from him, " not because he had dishonoured his magisterial functions, but because he had the honesty to avow himself the fearless supporter of the Orange institution, the glory and the bulwark of the land." Can the man who writes such gigantic falsehood and folly be of sound mind ? We would be almost disposed to think that the monstrous absurdity of this stilted nonsense would form sufficient grounds to sue out a writ of lunacy, and it would not greatly surprise us if the LORD CHANCELLOR gave a hint to the solicitor for lunatics on the subject. BEERS and his 400 ruffians the bulwarks of the land ! We, " the tailors of Tooley-street," is simple, bashful modesty to this. People of Britain, be no longer afraid of French invasion—you may now burn your old wooden walls, for you have the gallant wreckers of Castlewellan who marched triumphantly to the battle field with an escort of police and Dragoons, and leaving their escort to meet the battle's brunt in the open plains, betook themselves to the more genial achieve ments of burning cabins and shooting old women and children—these are the bulwarks of Ireland ! " The LORD-LIEUTENANT," Mr. BEERS continues, "should not sympathise with assassins." No, we trust be will not. We trust he will stretch forth the strong arm of the law and let it fall with atoning vengeance upon the assassins and their abettors. Can this man be alive to the common sympathies of humanity ? When he spoke of assassins did not the agonizing shriek of the poor] idiot ring in his ears—the crazed and sinless being afflicted with that fearful malady upon which all humanity looks with feelings of awe and pity—did no remorse seize him when he remembered how this creature, who stood unaccountable even before his GOD, had his skull battered in by his ruth less brothers ? Was this even considered no blot upon the triumph of the day ? Lord CLARENDON, he says, should not have stigmatised loyal men ! How sickening is this vaunting of lip loyalty ! We have some faint notion of the quality of Orange loyalty.

Wilton, London, 184 g. Several fortuitous circumstances have unhappily tended to dissipate many of those sanguine hopes which were inspired by the accounts relating to Sir JOHN FRANKLIN'S expedition recently brought to this country by the Truelove. Reflection has con siderably shaken the public confidence in the veracity of the story told to the captain of that vessel by one of the more communicative Esquimaux. And, cer tainly, at the first blush it does appear strange that the informant, speaking as an eye-witness, could produce not the smallest credential as to the truth of his narrative. A glance at the masterly chart of the Arctic Regions just issued from the establishment of Mr. WYLD, will neverthless show sufficiently well that from the supposed position of the missing expedi tion the navigators are by no means situated so perilously as many have been led to ima gine. Access to them is possible from two directions, either by Hudson's Straits or by Davis' Straits, either by proceeding from the latter through Baffins's Bay and Lancaster Sound, or from the former through Fox's Channel and the Gulf of Boothia. Of course these tracks are spoken of as possibilities, always under a contingency—the contingency that they are not rendered impenetrable by a barrier of frozen mountains. According to the calculation generally credited, the ships of Sir JOHN FRANKLIN'S expedi tion are in that portion of Prince Regent's Inlet, lying immediately between Batty River and Point Bowen. What appears, however, to be the principal error, not only in the plan of affording succour to the distressed adventurers, but also in the entire scheme of all such exploring expeditions,' is this—that all such enterprises are caused to run exactly counter to the currents in the Northern Seas. For whereas the currents flow from west to east—the struggles of our Arctic navigation are perversely directed from east to west. Hence all these delays, anxieties, and dangers. Hence this agonizing chance of a calamity. The blunder is altogether too glaring not to demand correction. The miscalculation is altogether too manifest not to require a speedy and permanent rectification. We shall await this with pro found solicitude. Meanwhile it is but due to humanity that no exertion should be spared to forward succour of any and every description to Sir JOHN FRANKLIN and his compa nions. Least of all should the daring and generous proposal which has recently emanated frnm Lieu tenant GALE, the enterprising aeronaut, be disre garded as impracticable and Quixotic. It should be remembered that that gentleman, by undertaking to carry out the plan he has himself voluntarily pro pounded, would be at once perilling his life and jeopardizing his reputation. That reflection alone is amply sufficient as a guarantee that his proposition is very far indeed from being wild or extravagant. Whatever may be the means adopted to carry assistance to the distressed mariners in the Arctic regions, it is I earnestly to be hoped that some positive intelligence , may be received, before many weeks have elapsed, assuring us of the safety of the expedition. THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 26, 1819. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Moniteur announces the appointment of General D'llAuTrooL to the command of the troops at present in the occupation of Rome, in the room of General ROSTOLAN, who has been recalled at his own request. In the National Assembly on Wednesday the dis cussion on the proposition of M. NAPOLEON BONA. PARTE for the release of the insurgents of June, 1848, was commenced, notwithstanding the desire expressed ,by the mover to postpone it to the following day. In the course of the discussion M. LAGRANGE read a long memorial from the insurgents confined in Belle isle, complaining bitterly of; the manner in which they are treated by the authorities. The Minister of the Interior declared that the statements contained in the memorial were false and calumnious. M. LA. GRANGH retorted. The further discussion was, on the motion of the Minister of the Interior, adjourned to the next day. At the meeting of the Assembly, yesterday, the debate was resumed, and, after a stormy discussion, the motion was rejected by a majority of 419 to 183. Dispatches have been received from St. Peters burgh, which it is said contain the important infor mation that the Emperor of RUSSIA is inclined to abandon his demand for the extradition of the refugees from Turkey. Six persons accused of having on the 14th June last taken part in a revolutionary - movement at Stras burg, have been acquitted by the tribunal at Metz. Lord BROUGHAM, on his way to Cannes, is at pre sent paying a visit at the chateau of Tholouet, the seat of the Marquis of GALIFFET. Madame ACHILLE MURAT, widow of the eldest son of the King of NAPLES and of Princess CAROLINE, sister of NAPOLEON, has just arrived in Paris. M. MANIN, ex.tresident of the Republic of Venice, has arrived in Paris. The Madrid mail had not arrived in Paris when the pest left. PARIS BOURSE, THURSDAY, OCT. 25.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was steady at previous rates. The sales were estimated at from 6,000 to 7,000 bales, including 1,000 American on speculation.—ln Railway Shares a fair business was dope at rather higher prices. The Colonial markets have been firm this week, and the holders have refrained from pressing sales. Coffee and Sugar are dearer; Cotton has maintained its value; Rice has been somewhat cheaper, and the Indigo auc tions have been brought to a close under favourable cir cumstances. There are arrivals from Australia and the Cape of Good Hope. The Sydney dates are to June 2. After a long period of drought refreshing showers had fallen. Trade was still inactive on the whole, but there were certain imported articles which realised good prices, bottled porter, iron, and currants, being in this category. Rum was lower than for years. Wheat was voted 4s. 6d. per bushel. From Van Diemen's Land our accounts are to June 6. The Lady Amherst had arrived out with immigrants, and married couples were obtaining engagements at 20, to 251 ter annum with board and rations. The anti. convict question was still the engrossing topic. Tt e Cape advices are to Aug. 21. On the frontier the new system worked admirably in preventing Kafir depredations, and Sir Harry Smith was highly popular. The state of affairs at Natal, if rightly described in the Graham's Town journals, is not satisfactory. The Lieutenant-Governor was not expected to live, an entire want of confidence is stated to prevail among the mercantile community, the treasury was empty, and all improvements were at a stand still. We shall have an opportunity, probably, of verifying or disproving these assertions by . private sources, and especially from the verbal communications of a gentleman who has just arrived from the settlement, and intends to return. The report of the Amsterdam Stock Market, dated Wednesday, is favourable. A good business was done in Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 53k. Spanish Bonds were rather better also. At Frankfort, on the 23d instant, Austrian Bonds were 88*. Under the signature of Verbum Sap. we have received a document which, though we sincerely deprecate Bear operations, can hardly be suppressed with any degree of fairness. Investigation and discussion are always the best safeguards of the value of property, as well as of political tranquillity. We can, however, only give a summary of the calculations before us:— AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY. The EMPEROR reviewed on the 20th, at Vienna, tl e troops passing through the city, in their way from Comorn to Bohemia. RADETSRT had paid his visits of leave preparatory to his return to Italy. HAYNAII will be absent for several weeks. JELLACHICH is suffering from cholera. The Lloyd says :—" On the petition of the Ser vians, who, in their struggle for their country and the whole monarchy, have been deprived by the Magyars of all their property, the Patriarch has addressed a letter to the Imperial Ministry, in which he portrays the sad destitution of his people, and implores that the Government will minister to their relief; and that, should their funds be inade quate, they will authorise the Patriarch to apply to other nations and kingdoms in behalf of the Servians." General SCHONHALB and Baron KUBECK have been definitively appointed representatives of Austria to the new Central Power. 1849. Actual de- Miles open. Decrease crease on per mile, the week.

Gill, of Wil liam•stoue, was hunting for a woodcock in the banks adjoinng his residence, he sprung a a abbit, and at the same moment a large blue hawk dart&d from the thicket in pursuit of it; but just as it wasp the act of pouncing upon its prey, Mr. G. levelled his piece, and with the contents of one barrel killed them both.—Dumfries Courier, C / 1 . ) tC ~~±j HAYMARKET THEATRE. Mr. Shirley Brookes has given us another laughter moving, witty, and in every sense of the word, original farce, under the title; of the Guardian Angel, which was produced at this theatre last evening with the most marked and deserved success. The Guar dian Angel, of whose protecting influences Mr. Shirley Brookes has made himself the chronicler, is a certain Moggy Snaggs (Mrs. Keeley), who to a devoted faith in fortune-telling by cards unites an ar dent love for a certain Mr. Dulcimer (Mr. Keeley), who at the commencement of their acquaintance was a humble clerk at eighteen shil• hogs a week. Dulcimer having had some property left him, becomes proud, apes the great, aspires to genteel society, and deserts Moggy. She, however, will not desert him ; she determines to be his guardian angel, and to watch over his morals ; and accord ingly, no sooner is Mr. Dulcimer installed in a lodging-house than we find Moggy there also, officiating as maid of all work to the esta blihment ; consulting her cards, which she always carries in her pocket, upon every emergency, and guarding Dulcimer's morals by intercepting every letter which is addressed to him in a female hand. There are other lodgers in the house; there is a Captain Myrtle and his wife (Mrs. Buck ingham), and with the latter a certain Mr. Delamere Lazytongs, who is also a lodger in the house, is endeavouring to carry on an intrigue, while Captain Myrtle is devoting himself to gain the good graces of Miss Kate Swynnerton (who found an admirable representative in Miss Emma Harding), the cousin of Mr. Delamere Lazytongs. Through the meddling protection of Moggy, Mr. Dulcimer becomes involved in these intrigues, and is suspected, and at last denounced by everybody, when Moggy comes for ward and explains all, and Dulcimer marries his guardian angel. The whole weight of the piece fell on the Keeleys, who were both admirably fitted, and acted as though they liked their parts. The applause and laughter were uproarious and continuous, and at the conclusion Mr. and Mrs. Keeley were called be fore the curtain. We understand that the Government have serious intentions of taking into consideration the question of removing Smithfield-market, and that a committee, c , )inposed of practical men, will be directed to report upon the practioability of such a course, after the fullest ulvsstigatlon into its several bearings. PRUSSIA. The Prussian Staats Anzeiger of the 23d publishes a long statement of the sitting of the Council of the Administration. All the Plenipotentiaries, except those of Saxony and Mecklenburg-Strelitz, rejected the objections of law made by Hanover relative to the convocation of the Diet. _ _ _ vv The President then announced, that in the next sitting he would bring forward the projects of the Prussian Government relative to-1. Modification of the project of the Diet. 2. The fixing and immediate publication of the period for the election to the ap proaching Diet. 3. The place of meeting of the Diet. 4. The mode in which the Council of the Administration may negotiate with the Diet when it shall be assembled. BAVARIA. It is said that the Bavarian Government will not assent to the treaty for the establishment of the new Central Power. The Allgemeine Zeitung says, the report that the Netherlands Minister at the Court of Bavaria has been recalled is entirely without foundation, and originated in an error. RUSSIA. AUSTRIA, AND TURKEY. THE EXTRADITION QUESTION SETTLED. Letters from Vienna, of the 21st October, state that a Russian courier arrived in that city on the preceding day, and that shortly afterwards the Eng lish and French Ambassadors were officially informed that the EMPEROR would not persist in demanding the extradition of his subjects now in Turkey, provided no menacing interference took place on the part of any European Power.; lONIAN ISLANDS. Letters from Corfu of the 10th say, " The rebel ringleaders are not yet taken, and the Lord High Commissioner, Sir GEORGE H. WARD, refuses to re lieve the islands from the ban of martial law. It was Sir PETER PsntizzorouLo who died suddenly on the 4th, after investing the Lord High Commissioner with the order of the Grand Cross of St. Michael and St. George. Several arrests have taken place at Corfu. AUSTRIAN LOAN. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir,—ln a letter from your own correspondent at Vienna, dated Oct. 13, and published in the Times of Friday last, the 19th inst., I find the following passage : "The Times of the 9th inst. has this moment arrived, and the very first thing that strikes,my eye is the fol lowing passage in Lord Dudley Stuart's speech at the mecting held on the Bth at the London Tavern This Austrian loan was an im posture, for by the laws of Austria no loan could be contracted without the previous sanction of the Diet. That sanction was wanting; for the loan was only signed by the Minister, without any legal au thority, &c.' As it is not for a moment to be supposed that Lord Dudley Stuart would utter a deliberate false hood, I can but say that he, on the Bth inst., undertook publicly to discuss a subject of which he was not master. Facts are stubborn things;' and the Noble Lord will hardly be able to talk away the fact of the late Diet's baying, in December last, at Kremsier, granted a loan of 80,000,000 conventional florins. I do not recollect exactly on what date, but I believe it was on the 28th. The Beichstags Blatt, however, contains the minutes of the proceedings connected with that grant. The foregoing simple statement is of course sufficient to show that the Noble Lord has taken up a totally false position; but even if the late Diet had not made the grant, I see no reason why a loan could not be contracted by a responsible. Minister, for I believe that precedents are not wanting of a similar measure having been carried out in cases of emergency in other constitutional countries, without the previous consent of Parliament having been given." Facts, as your correspondent observes, are stubborn things ; but I believe that the facts of this case will be found fully to support the statement that I made. The Diet of Kremsier may, indeed, in December last, have voted a lean of 80,000,000 conventional florins. But between that time and the publica tion of the proposal of the new loan for 70,000,000 conventional florins, the whole of the first-named sum, and much more, was raised ; as may be seen by the accounts of the Bank of Austri▪ a, officially pub lished. The vote of the Diet for 80,000,000 conven tional florins cannot legalise a loan for an additional 70,000,000 conventional florins. Moreover, the Go vernment of Vienna has forcibly di▪ ssolved the Diet of Kremsier, and denied the validity of its acts. How, then, can the authority of that Diet, which is denied for other purposes, be invoked to sanction this loan ? Your correspondent, however, while he endeavours to make out that the loan had the sanction of the Diet, seems to feel that this plea may fail him ; for he adds that he sees no reason why, without any such sanction, a loan should not be contracted by a responsible Minister, and he talks of precedents for such a course to be found in constitutional countries in cases of emergency. I shall leave to others to debate with your corre spondent the propriety of such a course, merely re marking that I think if Sir C. Wood, or any other Chancellor of the Exchequer, were to adopt it, he would be likely to hear so muc h about it, even in the columns of the Times, and at any rate from the country at large, as would make hihim speedily desist from the attempt, and would drive him ignominiously from the office he had abused. On one point I confess myself to have been wrong. The error I fell into was in favour of Austria. I stated that the loan was signed by a Minister of State. The truth, however, is, that the official announce ment of the loan bears the signature of no Minister whatever, but only that of the Governor of Lower Austria. MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) C RN -E XC 1-1 ATN GE—FRIDAY. A decided increase has taken place in the arrivals of English Wheat up to our market this week, coastwise as well as by land carriage. The show of samples hero to day, however, was not large, but full equal to the demand, ss the attendance of both town and country buyers was limited. Selected parcels of both red and white were in moderate request, at about Monday's quotations. In the middling and inferior kinds, very few transactions were reported, yet we have no actual fall to notice in value. From abroad, we have received 6,860 quarters of Wheat, chiefly from Dantzic. For most descriptions the demand was in a sluggish state, at barely stationary prices. In floating cargoes no sales. Malting Barley hung on hand. This may be attribu'ed to the low prices at which old Malt is selling. Grinding qualities sup ported late prices. The supply of Malt was not large. All kinds were a dull inquiry at unaltered quotations. From Ireland 6,630 quarters of Oats have come in this week. The supply from other parts is small. Selected samples were steady, at full prices. Damp qualities were neglected. Beans, Peas, Indian-corn, and Flour, as on Monday. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat, Barley. IMalt. Flour. Qrs. Qrs.

For the time of year our market to-day was but mo derately supplied with Beasts, nearly the whole of which were the refuse of Monday, and of very middling quality; nevertheless the Beef trade was excessively heavy, at almost nominal quotations, and a clearance was not effected. There was a natural falling off in the number of Sheep, yet the supply was more than adequate to the wants of the butchers, whose attendance was limited: The few prime Downs offering sold at about stationary prices, viz., from 3s 10d to 4s per Sibs. In all other kinds next to nothing was doing, but we have no actual fall to notice in the currencies. Calves were in short supply, and heavy inquiry, at the late decline. The sale for Pigs was very inactive at our quotations. Milch Cows were offering at from 141 to 171 103 each, includ ing their small Calf. Per albs. to Mak the offal. s. d. to s. (1.

In our report on Friday last, we stated that the esti mated duty for Sussex was 19,4001. Since then it has been officially declared at 35,25019 s 6d, or nearly double what the " knowing ones" said it would produce. The amount for Kent will be shortly published in the Gazette. In the meantime, we cannot but direct attention to the cbservations we advanced some time since, viz , that the duty would amount to 100,0001. For all kinds of Hops the demand is extremely inactive, and lower prices have been accepted in most instances.
