Her MAJESTY'S visit to Ireland has terminated, the royal squadron has departed from the Irish shores, but the feelings of devoted loyalty and. attachment awakened among that warm-hearted and enthusiastic people far the throne and person of their SOVEREIGN and of her family wilt long survive that auspicious journey. The Mosaacii has at length become acquainted with a large portion of her dominions, she will be enabled to form her own judgment re specting her Irish subjects. Their faults and follies have long been prominently put forward; the dark side of the picture has hitherto been only exhibited to the royal view. Henceforth, however, the landscape will assume a brighter aspect. The virtues of the people, their pa tience, and long-suffering under unparalleled afflictions will not be forgotten. Their ardent love for their QUEEN, whose throne rests on the most en • during basis—the hearts of her people—will not be forgotten. The acclamations with which she was received throughout the entire country, the myriads that awaited her approach in Cork, Dublin, and Bel fast, and attended her progress in the southern, eastern, and northern provinces, their misery and wretchedness being for a time forgotten in the eathu• elastic joy with which they welcomed their SOVE REIGN and the Royal Children, the future hope of the nation, to the " Isle of the West," will make a deep impression on the Royal Lady. How can she here after credit the insinuations of Irish disloyalty that may be whispered in the palace ? How can she believe that those of whose devotion she beheld such convincing proofs could desire to subvert her power, or to over turn her government. Henceforward and for ever away with those injurious misapprehensions. Her MAJESTT will duly appreciate her Irish subjects, and will know that whatever may occur she may repose unbounded confidence in their love and loyalty. They may suffer deeply and speak warmly ; but VICTORIA Will still reign in their hearts, from which no circumstances can ever displace her. Nor will the effect of the visit on the multitude be of less importance. They have seen their QUEEN, her Consort, and Children, with their own eyes ; they know how worthy of their love and al legiance is the Royal Lady called by PRO• VIDENCE to rule over them. They understand how deeply she sympathizes with their affetions, and how earnestly she desires the regeneration of their country ; they will no longer be betrayed into an appearance of hostility or listen to the insi dious advice of wily demagogues ; they will not suffer it to be asserted with even a semblance of truth that they cherish feelings of disaffection. As the first and most acceptable sacrifice, they will abandon their party disputes and internecine conflicts. All iclasses, creeds, and parties have vied with each other in expressing their feelings of pride and gratification on the auspicious occasion, and of affectionate and enthusiastic attachment to her person and family. Let them determine to co-operate cordially together to exhibit the truth of their professions. Let the rival tints of orange and green be exchanged for the colours of VICTORIA, which all may bear upon their bosoms without exciting a feeling of animosity or resentment in any Irish heart. ;Let party tunes be forgotten and the National Anthem become a bond of unity among Protestant and Catholic Orangemen and Ribandmen. Then, indeed, will the Royal visit be productive of the happiest results, and regenerated, prosperous, and contented Ireland will long have cause to hail the name of " VICTORIA " as her greatest benefactor, as the banisher of evils more injurious to the national welfare and more destructive than the noxious reptil es which their patron Saint is reported to have driven from the Irish soil. We cannot cunclude our observations without noticing the high compliment which it is sa id h er MAJESTY has annou nce d her intentleofconferring on the sister kingdom. It is stat e d in the Dublin, P rince Irish Government that his Royal Highnes s s gaLi Of the the of WALES is to be forthwith creat e d E ar l of as a record of the heartfelt satisfaction which her M A JESTY has derived from the loyal feelings and kindness with which she has been received by the inhabitants of the Irish metropolis, arid in order to establish a connexion between his Royal Highness and her MAJESTY'S Irish subjects. This is as it should be, it is a 'wise and politic, as well as a gracious act. It is right that the future Sovereign of Ireland, the Heir Apparent to the Irish throne, should bear an Irish title—that the eldest son of VICTORIA should assume the dignity so long borne by his royal grandfather. The concession is peculiarly appropriate at the present moment. It will be re ceived throughout the entire country as N special boon • TTIE SIM, LONDON; and favour, and it will cement more closely the bonds by which the MONARCII of the United Kingd.sm is united to her loyal an (l devoted people of Ireland. Two cases of more than ordinary atrocity have been tried on the Western Circuit during the past week, Two further illustrations have been afforded of the hairible crime that has recently become so prevalent in this•country, in addition to those to which we have already directed the public attention. Two new con victions have been obtained, the victim in one instance being the husband, and ill the other the child of the wretched murderer—the instrument of death in both cases being poison. It is indeed difficult to conceive the deep depravity of those who, influenced by some trivial and paltry motive, could be induced to destroy the persons whom they were bound to guard with the utmost vigilance from every danger, and thus to add the basest treachery to the most shocking murder. We are told that " fact is stranger than fiction," and the criminal records of the present Assizes afford the strongest proof of the adage. What novelist would dare to depict guilt like that of the woman who poisoned her husband and children, against whoa; she entertained no hatred or dislike, who had never injured, or given her cause of com plaint, but on the contrary were supporting her. and the remaining members of her family, by the wages of their industry, merely to obtain the trifling sums payable by a burial club, on the death of its members? Who could suppose the possibility of a woman s sacrificing her young and affectionate hus• band, with whom she had lived in the greatest har mony and comfort, on the speculation of managing a septuagenarian more than forty years older than her former partner; or how could the most vivid ima ; gination conceive a case like that of the unnatural parent who habitually destroyed her innocent off spring, not for the sake of pecuniary gain, or to avoid the shame and disgrace that falls upon the anwedded mother ; but to save herself the trouble of attending to their little wants? Yet such crimes have been committed in Merry England during the ' present year, and the wretched criminals are at this moment awaiting the execution of the last dread sentence of the law, that affixes the penalty of death upon the scaffold; as the only adequate expiation of the enormous guilt of which they respectively have been convicted by juries of their countrymer. 1 The case of CHARLOTTE HARRIS, otherwise MAR.. CHANT, is perhaps the most inexplicable of any that has as yet been brought to light. Her deceased husband, HENRY MARCHANT, was in the very prime of life, 28 years of age, a faithful and affectionate partner, who earned comfortable wages, and made her a liberal allowance for household expenditure. She herself added to the general fund by selling orange& in the market-place of Bath, by which she realised ' fair profits. They had lived together very happily and respectably for seven or eight years, and were respected and esteemed by all their neighbours. There had been two children of the marriage, one of whom is still living. Such was the position of the parties. No words or disputes had occurred between them ; no cloud had arisen to disturb their domestic felicity, when, in an evil hour, she met a man, named HARRIS, a pensioner, more than 70 years of age, but supposed to be possessed of some property, who paid her some attention. On the 22d of March she took tea with Mums at his house, where she retrained a consider able time. The result of this visit, and of subsequent interviews, appears to have been that she conceived that HARRIS would marry her if at liberty, and she resolved to make away with her unfortunate husband, who was the only bar to her union with her anti quated admirer. She did not long postpone her fatal determination. On the following Saturday (March 31st), HENRY MARCHANT returned from his work in excellent health and spirits, anticipating a day of rest and enjoyment. But bow vain were these expecta tions. The deadly cup was already drugged for hi& life. He partook of tea with his apparently loving spouse, and his death warrant was sealed. In a few hours he became exceedingly ill, exhibiting the symptoms attendant upon having taken arsenic, and continued so during the entire of the following day. On Monday he endeavoured to continue his labour, b u t was almost immediately obliged to relinquish the effort and return home. The parish surgeon waf called in, but the wife gave a false account of her husband's illness, stating that he had strained himself by lifting heavy stones, and bed been spitting blood for some weeks. The doctor was easily satisfied, no suspicion was excited. `ome medicines were sent, but even these were withheld by the prisoner, who looked without remorse or concern on the fearful sufferings of the father of her children. On the fourth day of his illness she left the room, where her suffering husband lay dying, to inspect a house which her aged inamorato thought of taking, when she in formed his servant " that she was about to be married to Halters, that she was a single woman, but could not be married for a short time, as her sister was vet-) ill." • The story of her sister's illness proved to be an absolute fiction, as well as that which she told to the parish doctor respecting her husband. This visit strengthened ber determination, and the uhfortunate husband lingering in his agony longer than she ex pected, an additional and larger dose of the fata: mineral was administered, which completed the deadly work. HENRY MARCHANT died on Saturday, the 7th of April, and the prisoner spent the greater portion of her time during the interval that elapsed previous to his burial in company with HARRIS. On the very day of the funeral she obtained the marriage licence, which was not long permitted to remain unused. In three days the wedding was celebrated, and " The funeral baked meats Did coldly furnish forth the marriage table." These extraordinary proceedings necessarily at tracted attention. The body was exhumed, but the surgeons, not having any suspicion of poison, did not investigate for the purpose of finding any. An in quest was, however, held; the coroner was not quite so easily satisfied. The contents of the stomach were analysed, and two grains and a half of solid arsenic and one grain in solution were found in it. The solid arsenic could not have been taken more than twenty-fours before death, repeated doses must, therefore, have been administered at intervals during the illness, the last of which proved effectual. The wife was committed for trial, and, as we have already stated, was convicted. REBECCA SMITH (whose case was fully reported in our impression of Saturday), was tried at Devizes the preceding day, for the murder of her infant child, IticuAßD SMITH, aged only twenty-six days. Evidence of the usual character was adduced to ahow the purchase of a pennyworth of arsenic by the prisoner on false pretences, of the subsequent sickness and death of the unfortunate infant, and of its exhumation, when suspicion was at length excited, and the discovery of arsenic in its remains. She had previously had eleven children, all of whom, except the eldest, had died when between three and four weeks old, exhibiting similar symptoms to those of the last victim—and, although no proof was given of the fact, it not being legally admissible, traces of arsenic were discovered in the remains of several of those children, so that no moral doubt could exist that it had been her custom to administer poison to her chilaren, one only, the eldest, being spared. This wretched woman was also convicted on the clearest and most satisfactory testimony, and MARY ANNE GEERING, CHAR LOTTE HARRIS, and REBECCA SMITH, now re main under sentence of death in the gaols of Lewes, Bridgwater, and Devizes, to expiate their awful crimes, and afford examples cf the fearful punishment that awaits the wilful and deliberate murderer. These cases show the fearful extent to which thi s species of crime has been carried in consequence of the great laxity exhibited in the sale of arsenic and other deadly poisons in small quantities, on the most frivolous pretexts, and also the carelessness and apathy of medical men, who behold persons dying under all the symptoms of poison without calling for any investi ga ti on , or i nterpos i ng any difficulty as to certifying a cause of death to the registrar of buriels. It is manifest that strirgent regulations must be introduced as to the sale of poisons, if we desire to check the growing evil. Pennyworths of arsenic must no long e r b e so ld across the counter to that any applicant. It i s no t sufficiet that '° poison" be legibly marked o n th e article, or purchaser should be cautioned as t o it s deadly atprothe perties. Such precautions may possibly guard in some degree against the poison being administered by mistake, but it can afford no protection agai ns t the wilful and deliberate poisoner, nor in a case like that of MARY BALL, whom the D-arned Judge believed " to have purchased the arsenic innocently, aid then suffrrecl her mind to become familiqrized with the idea of using the deadly instrument." Arsi-nie only be sold in large quantities, to persons duly authorised to purchase it, and known to the vendors ; and returns should be made every month to the office of the registrar of deaths in the district, who should closely look to any sudden or unexplained deaths in families in which it had been procured. Medical practitioners should also bestow greater care in ascertaining the cause of death before they authorize the burial, and in any suspicious case a stringent investigation should take place. Every means should, in fact, be adopted to check a crime of which so many melancholy instances have recently been brought, and which we fear has been even more extensively prac tised than can ever possibly be ascertained. rHE FREINCH REPUBLIC. The Paris journals of Saturday and yesterday have been received. They all of them comment more or less strongly on the deplorable scene which occurred in the Legis lative Assembly during the sitting of Friday. Both of the principals in the incident (M. GASTIER, who insulted M. PIERRE BONAPARTE, with the Bil lingsgate of the Mountain by calling him " a perfect imbecile," and M. PIERRE BONAPARTE, who so far "orgot the dignity due to himself and to the Assembly as to strike M. GASTIER in the face in that moment of supreme irritation), were shortly after the first adjournment liberated by order of M. Durix. Unfortunately for the cousin of the PRESIDENT of the Republic, M. GASTIER is upwards of seventy, being old enough to be his grandfather, so that more sympathy is excited for the latter than would have been accorded to him otherwise. The following is the account of the occurrence as given by the Opinion Publique, showing certainly that a PIERRE BONAPARTE was excited by the gravest pro vocation. " M. PIERRE BONAPARTE, says the organ, " was sitting with the Mountain, was manifestly importuned by the continual marks of approbation given by M. GASTIER, who sat behind him, to all the abuse directed against his relative. 'But, sir, you say that it is true; I maintain that these are wretched calumnies.'—'l maintain that it is true, and I will prove You cannot prove it, for it is false, it is stupid!'—' You are an archi bete !'—' Ah ! I am an archi-beter Here a slap in the face, vigorously applied, terminated the conversation." The word used was positively imbecile. Another report of the incident, still more precise, is as follows :-- "It appears that when the part of the article was come to which speaks of the President of the Republic gloat ing over his 600,000 f. a year for balls and pleasures, whilst the most violent measures were in dreparation,' 'el. Gastier, an elderly representative, belonging to the Left, had exclaimed, It is quite true!' M. Pierre Bonaparte, who happened to be sitting near him (though it was . not his usual place), immediately addressed him and said, Oh! you do not know my cousin, or you would not say so! It is not true!' the other retorted—' Oh, I know better, it is quite true!' M. Pierre Bonaparte then said:—' No, I say it is not!' On which M. Gastier hastily exclaimed, 'You are as imbecile!' (a fool!) which was replied to on the instant by a slap in the lace (a souSht) from M. Pierre Bonaparte. All this had passed in a few seconds, and then arose the scene of contusion which we have described. A glass of water was brought to M. Gastier, who appeared quite overcome; ho bathed his face in it several times." The Pays publishes the following letter, addressed to its editor, by M. PIERRE NAPOLEON BONAPARTE •` Paris, August 11. " Monsieur le Redacteur,—l am about to ask of )uu to rectify some part of the recital of what took place in the Assembly, on Friday. It is not correct that a repre sentative of the Mountain advanced, cane in hand, on M. Pierre Bonaparte, who opened his waistcoat and bared his breast, as if to present it to menaces of death.' I never saw any representative, armed with a cane, ad vance towards me. All those who are acquainted with me know that I am not a man to tolerate such an attitude against me, from whoever it may be. My custom, when attacked, is not to expose my breast, but to put myself in an attitude to defend myself. I did not, therefore, expose my breast, and I did not antici pate any serious danger on the part of men who do not hesitate to put themselves twenty against one. I am convinced that, even had not my friends and the ushers of the Assembly surrounded me, none of those who threatened me from a distance, would have dared to have approached me. I must beg your permission to declare that it is not true, as asserted by M. Gastier, that I im mediately disappeared. Every one must have seen that I remained long enough near him. Neither is it correct what the ushers led me away not without difficulty. The ushers did not lead me away, for the moment I received rbe written order of : the President, I went to the ques eeur with General Le Flo. Finally, the ushers did not conduct me when I came back to the tribune. Neither do I think that I was very pale; but, under any circum stance, that would not have prevented me from giving vigorous reception to any aggressors, as I am ready to do on every occasion and in any manner. Accept, &c." Upon this subject also the Constitutionnel exclaims: " What a deplorable spectacle did the sitting of yes terday present! Outrage was pushed to its utmost. limits; the provocation and the insult led to assault, and it was necessary to suspend the sitting in the midst of the general emotion caused by a fact unheard of in the annals if deliberative assemblies. May this at least serve as a lesson, and be of benefit to those who, by their aggressive interruptions and by their insulting exclamations so ,I,eply degrade our Parliamentary habits. Tilt se at ticks, which we shsll not attempt to qualify since they tare the subject of judicial proceedings, these attacks iirected against the President of the Republic, against the Chief of the Executive Government, against hits whom a recent law has protected against the aggressions of the press, have met with approving voices in the Assembly. There have been found representatives who nave not feared to give this detestable example of want ,f respect towards the Constitution, and towards the laws of their country." The proceedings of the members in their bureau is thus mentioned by the Patrie : " Atter the painful incident which occurred in the course of the sitting of the National Assembly, the epresentutives withdrew to their bureaux, according to the rules of the Assembly. Very animated conversa tions ensued, in which the Mountain supported M. tastier; but the great majority justified M. Pierre Bona parte, on the ground that M. Gustier appeared to have applied to him a very unparliamentary epithet. The ...;ouncil of Ministers assembled in the cabinet reserved ter extraordinary cases. The President, in pursuance of the regulations, invited M. Pierre Bonaparte to proceed to a bureau." Subsequently to this miserable affair a number of general officers placed on the retired list by the Pro visional Government were restored to active service, ►nd shortly afterwards the Assembly was adjourned till the Ist of October. As the members were re tiring the Left cried out " Vive la Republique !" a voice from the Right responding. "Not yours, we hope !" An extraordinary and alarming division of interests and of opinion appears to have sprung up among the •'najority—abandoning the country again to the most terrible anxieties, and affording the Mountain tnother chance for the resumption of some degree of authority. M. TIMES has openly broken with the Legiti matists and the parti pretre, at the very time when ne has been selected the reporter of the committee )f public assistance by a majority of one over M. BEREYEE. The majority, in fact, is now split up into the fol sowing sections :- 1. Moderate Republicans. 2. Legitimatists. 3. Orleanists. 4. Parti•pretre. 5. Bonapartists. The Moderate Republicans recognise for leaders, General CAVAIGNAC, M. DUFAURE, M. DE TOCQUE VILLE, and others, whose names are sufficiently The Legitimatists look to M. DE FALLOUX, M. BE. NOIT D'AZY, SEC. _ _ The Orleanists require M. THIERS as their leader. -- - - - - - The parti-pretre look to M. DE MONTALAMBERT. So that M. Timm is at his old game again in ear nest ! Let him beware. The precedent of M. GUIZOT'S fate in February, 1848, should have some meaning for his consideration. It seems that M. MOLE at first intended to act as mediator, but the split is too decisive, and baffles all his influence and ingenuity. Among other causes of anxiety to France is the growing discontent against the new taxes, especially the projected taxation of incomes. The Moniteur does not yet contain the promulga tion of the law for raising the state of siege; it records, however, the fact that General RULUIERES has demanded 37,967,360 f. supplementary credit for unforeseen expenses. A somewhat similar demand is expected from the Minister of Marine—both these supplementary credits having reference to the Roman expedition. By a decree of the PRESIDENT of the Republic, the Minister of War is charged with the portfolio of the Minister of Marine, and M. DUFAURE with that of the Minster of Public Works, during the absence Of those Ministers with the PRESIDENT of the Republic. The Council of State has decided against M. DE LESSEES, and a severe censure is inflicted upon him. The penalty of death pronounced against Captain KLEBER was commuted into that of ten years' impri sonment and degradation. AM. LEVAY, the author of a song entitled " The Ball and the Guillotine," was sentenced by the Court of Assize of Paris, on Saturday, to six months' impri sonment and 300 f. fine. M. EUGENE BARESTE, principal editor of the Re. publique, whose arrest has been announced, wa s yesterday set at liberty. Lieutenant and Mrs. HEALD (LoL4iNiorrEz) have arrived in Paris, MONDAY EVENING, AUGUgT le, 11140 On Saturday morning the PRESIDENT of the Re public. accompanied Cie Viee-Ptesident an tour of his Ministers, left, .1 3 ,:•rs sa.

He then reviewed the National Guards and '-troops, and repaired et four o'clock - to the Mairie, where he re ceived the authorities, and afterwards visited the iron manufactory of M. BARBET. At seven o'clock he. was entertained at, a magnificent banquet given him by the city. General CHANGiRNIER, who accompanies the PRE SIDENT, is everywhere warmly received. Yesterday the PRESIDENT was to visit Havre, and on his way back to Paris purposed stopping awhile at Elbkuf and at Louviers. . _ -- - The following communication appears in the Pa trie and the Moniteur du Soir : "The absence of the Governer of the Invalides during the funeral ceremony of Marshal Molitor, has been sharply crideised by several journals. It can, neverthe less, be explained. On the day of the funeral ceremony of Marshal Bugeaud, a p. rsonal engagement—un unfor seen circumstance —prevented -tht, governor from at tending the' Invalides. On Wednesday, the 8:h, he was hi s f old ee i of friend ; butdelicacy a would have j. , itted with the greatest pt. asure the nu merousexcessive functionaries who paid funeral honours to Mar was shal i Molitor,serupe_perha a p ss —pr e vented him: be feare that he weuld have been acc used of making a difference between th e t wo Mar shals.an No doubt the numerous proces verbaux of these solemn ceremonies prove, that at no period was the pre sence of the Governor a rigorous obligation; but that would be an excuse which it never entered the mind of the present Governor to urge." The Assembles Nationale notices as follows the recall-of General OuniNo'r : "The report of the return of General Oudinot is con firmed. We had refused to credit it, btcause that return was represented as a censure. If it is true, however, that the conqueror of Rome returns as a marshal of France, we shall rejoice at his recall. To have recalled General Oudinot in any other way would have been madness." The Five per Cents. were quoted this day in the Passage de l'Opera at 88f. 90c.

In the definitive treaty which was signed on il;e 6th, the Austrian Governnont has agreed to accept of the seventy-five millions. The other material difference in the treaty is, that Parma and Modena are treated with separately, iiistEnt of being included in the Austrian treat y, which wouA have placed them in a sort of vacs doge to Austria. With respect to the commercial portion of the treaty, the only change is that it is put in such a shape that it does not appear to be forced on Sardinia, as it was by the Austrian version. The Journal des Dibats states 'that the indemnity of 75,000,000 f. due by Piedmont to Austria, has already been paid by the house of RoTuscuuu, ON account of the former power. As to the amneSty it is hampered by Austria with certain conditions. The leaders of the Lombard in surrection are placed in an excep . .ional position, and must await the pleasure of Austria; while, before they return to Lombardy, ali persons implicated must address petitions to the EMPEROR.

In the province of Valence many individuals of that lawless population, seeing themselves ruined by the prevailing drought, have taken to the road. Several assassinations have taken place. The Andalwian papers complained of the public roads being infested with robbers, and the necessity of every farmer going armed when out. The Ministerial crisis had produced a depression in the money market.

GikNIANY THE NORTHERN STATES AUSTRIA A.ND HUNGARY The splendid and successive victories gained by the Hungarian patriots under BEM, GUYON, GEORGEY, DEMBINSKI, Armor, and KLAPRA, have fallen like thunder upon Vienna. The accounts are confirmed which stated that the personal interference of the EMPEROR was required to induce the German recruits to leave the capital for Presburg. In the Austrian Cabinet there are two parties—the young EMPEROR and KRAUSS being on the side of peace—SCRWARTZEATBURG, .BACH, and SCUMERLING, on the part of war. The people generally are with the former, and the intelligence of the sympathy, evinced for the Hungarians in England has produced a profound impression. On the sth instant Prince SCUNYAETZENEURG left the capital on his road tiiVarsaw, and on learning at Cosel that General LAMORICIERE had started just before from that place to Cracow, the Austrian Minister is said to have exclaimed, " What the devil does he want at Cracow ? ' _ _ Another great and decisive victory has been gained by the Hungarians, perhaps the greatest and the most decisive that has yet been achieved in this glorious and extraordinary campaign. It occurred on the 3d instant. On that day General CZ&RICII, the commander of the besieging corps before Comorn was suddenly fallen upon by the garrison, hea led by KLAPKA. It appears that that garrison, originally numbering only 10,000, had been latterly augmented to 23 000 men, by upwards of 12 000 dispatched thither by GEORGEY through Waitzen as a reinforce ment. Czonica ' s corps was utterly routed—so utterly routed that it lost its Position, its guns, and its stores, together with the bridge across the Danube con necting them with Schutt. Their outposts were driven back twenty- five miles on the Vienna side of Raab, namely to Wiesselburg, so that not only is Raab now in the possession of the Hungarians, not only is KLAPKA. twenty-five miles nearer the mperial city of Austria, not only is the siege of Comorn raised, but Acs and Gorgo have fallen into the hands of the Miigyars. So tremen dous are the calamities that have befallen the Austrian armies, and so perillous is the position of the Austrian capital, that the people of Vienna are uttering their execrations both loud and deep at HAYNAU, while the Government is employing every effort to pour down by railway towards the Hungarian frontiers every possible reinforcement. The position of HAYNAU, indeed, is positively terrific at this moment. He has marched down into the heart of Hungary, and now all his lines of communication with the capital of Austria are effectually cut off, provisions .are every day be coming more and more scarce, the bad season is rapidly approaching, disease and discouragement are together spreading through the ranks of his men, and his name is held in equal abhorrence, as that of a perfect monster of cruelty, both by his own country men and by the Hungarians. GEORGEY'S force, on passing the Theiss at Tokay, numbered 35,000 men, and out of 120 pieces of artillery he had lost only two throughout the whole of his movements. The Russians under PASKIEWITCH are described as dying off like flies; and it is counted upon as inevitable that, unless a change occurs before August, his whole force will be little short of being annihilated. The following paragraph will be perused with peculiar interest : " MAdame Paskiewitch had received a letter from her husband, dated the 2d, which said that he had been de feated by Georgey, or which, at least, led her to that conclusion. Georgey was spoken of in the highest terms of admiration by the Emperor, and h e nce, of course, by everybody else. He had won the heart of a Russian offio•-r, whom he had taken prisoner, by his generous treatment. This officer, whom he had set at liberty, was never tired of pratiing his benefactor, of whom he sent a personal description, which would suit a hero of romance, and of which the most striking feature was his quietness of manne!." FitUbSIA. Accounts from Berlin are up to the 9th.inst. The First Chamber of - Prussia met on the Bth, and voted thanks to the army. The Minister of the In terior presented reports on the state of siege of Berlin and Erturth. The Second Chamber, after receiving, on the 7th, directions from Count BRANDENBURG in the White Hull to constitute itself, went to the old room in the Donhofs-Platz• Here all was unchanged, save that some chairs were placed before the Ministerial table for the Members of the Centre, which were taken by AuERSWALDt HARKOST, WENZEL, BECKERATH, and Stmsort. The Ministerial bench was occupied by MANTEUFFE L and -VON DER HEYDT. Hitherto no thing beyond mere formal business of routine hae been transacted. Simsos is likely to be elected President. ELSENHAUS, editor of the Messager of the Fortress of Rastadt, was shot on the 6th, in virtue of the sen tence of a court-martial. BIEDENFELD has been respited. Some surprise was felt at Berlin at the non-arrival of the Vienna mail on the Bth inst. BADEN. The Alsacien says that amongst the documents which fell into the hands of the Prusians, after the re est Ablishment of order in the Duchy of Baden, were two letters addressed to SII,GEL, the Gene.

Who, he declares, understood nothing of The second is from AICEGLING, complaining of TIEDEMANN, whom he declares to be a fool. He states that if this latter should prevent him his ob taining a victory, he would have him shot as if by mistake. He terminates his letter by pointing out a number of inhabitants of Heldesheim, as deserving to be arrested. The w or k men ' s c l u b s h ave b een j us t suppresse d, not only at Heidelberg, but throughout the Grand Duchy. They were considered equally dangerous to the existing order of things as the people's clubs, and have consequently shared the same fate. BAVARIA. ZwEin, the Minister of the Interior, had sent in his resignation on the 7th. It had not, however, been accepted by the KING .The Vicar of the Empire was expected from Gas t= on his way back to Frankfort.

Rumour positively asserts that preparations are now being made for the definitive form,ition and con solidation of the central power of Germany. Near the imperial city a grand banquet came off on the 9th, at the little villa:!e called Niedtrrad. SWITZERLAND. The conclusions arrived at by the committee ap pointed to regulate the relations - which are henceforth to subsist between the Swiss and German Confedera tions are as follJws • " 1. The Fe&ral Council shall be invested with full powers to take the necesary measures relative to the employment o f th e t roo p s ca ll e d out on f e d era l se , rvice; it may increase their number, or dismiss them entirely. according to circumstances.-2 The lull rowels which were given to the Federal Council on 30th June last, with regard to the extraordinary expenses, are renewed.— 3. The Federal Council is authorised to take the necessary measures relative to the restitution to the proper 4.wners of the sans brought into the Swiss territory by the refugees, the prompt re turn of the mass of refugees into. their country, and to obtain positive explanations relative to the assembling ef troops along the northern frontier of France. For this object it will open negotiations on conditions which shall offer the greatest advantages to Switzerland." An animated debate toook place on the repDrt, and the conclusions of the committee were eventually adopted b) a large majority. ITA L Y. PIEDMONT AND LOMBARDY. The draft of a treaty of peace as proposed to Pied mont by Austria, having been already published, we give the following copy of the counter•project as proposed to Austria by Fiedmont:— DRAFT OF THE COUNTER-PROJECT OF A TREATY OF PEACE BETWEEN AUSTRIA AND SARDINIA. " In the name of the most Holy and IndivistbleTrinity. " His Majesty the Emperor of Austria, King of Hun gary, of Bohemia, of Lombardy, arid of Venice, &c., and his Majesty the Kiug of Sardia, &c., having equally at heart to put an end to the calamities of the war, and to re•e6tablish the ancient relations of friendship and good intelligence which have subsisted between their respective states, ha% e resolved to proceed without delay to the conclusion . of a definitive treaty of peace, and have in cot.sequence named as their representatives, viz.: " His Majesty the Emperor of Austria, King of Hun garg, and of Elohemia, of Lombardy, and of Venice, the Chevalier Charles Louis de Bruck: His Majesty the King of Sardinia, M. Charles Be rando, his Minister of State; Joseph Chevalier de la Bormida, General of Artillery; and his aide-de-camp, Charles Chevalier Buoncompagni de Montbello: " Who, after having recognised their full powers, which were found to be in good and due form, have agreed to the following articles:— " Art. 1. There will be, for the future and for ever, peace, friendship, and good intelligence between his Ma jesty the Emperor of Austria and his Majesty the King of Sardinia, their heirs and successors, their respective states and subjects. " Art. 2. All the treaties and conventions concluded between his Majesty the Emperor of Austria and his Majesty the King of Sardinia, which were in vigour on the Ist of May, 1848, are fully revived and confirmed, in as far as they are not derogated from by the present treaty. " Art. 3. The limits of his Kijesty the King of Sar dinia on the side of the Po and on the side of the Tes sin° shall be such as they were fixed by the para graphs 3,4, and 5, of Art. 85 of the final act of the Congress of Vienna on the 9:h of June, 1815, &c., as they existed before the commencement of the war of 1848. " Art. 4. His Majesty the King of Sardinia, as well for himself as for his heirs and successors, renounces all title and pretensions whatsoever to the countries situated beyond the limits designated in the above-named para graphs of the precited Act of the 9th Juno, 1815 ; nevertheless, the right of reversion of Sardinia to the duchy of Pla►cenzia is maintained in the terms of the treaties. Art. 5. His Royal Highness the Archduke, Duke of Modena, and his Royal Highness the Infant of Sp a i n , Duke of Parma and Placenzta, will be invited to accede to the present treaty. Art. 6. This treaty will be ratified, and the ratifica tions as well as the acts of accession and acceptance of it will be exchanged within the period of fourteen days, or sooner if that can be done. "In faith of which the respective Plenipotentiaries have signed it, and attached to it their seals and arms. " Done at Milan, the day of —, 1849." SEPARATE AND ADDITIONAL ARTICLES OF THE TREATY OF FEACF.. " Art. 1. His Majesty the King of Sardinia binds himself to pay to his Majesty the Emperor of Austria the sum of seventy-five millions of francs, by way of in demnity for the expenses of the war of every kind, and for the damages suffered during the war by the Austrian Government and its subjects, towns, or corporations, without any exception, as well as for the claims which had been raised for the same causes by their Royal Highnesses the Archduke, Duke of Modena, and the Infant of Spain, Duke of Purina and Placeuzia. " Art. 2. The payment of the seventy-five millions of francs, stipulated by the preceding article, shall be dis posed of in the following manner:— " Fifteen millions of francs shall be paid in ready money, by means of a mandate, payable at Vienna or at Paris, at the end of the mouth of October next, without interest, which will be delivered to the Plenipotentiary- of his Majesty the Emperor, at the moment of exchanging the ratifications of the present treaty. The payment of the remaining sixty millions must be made in ten successive instalments, to be effected from two months to, two months, at the rate of six millions each, to commence at the end of De cember next, with interest at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum on the amouLt of the term to be paid. For each term the interest will he calculated to date from the one in which the ratifications of the present treaty shall be exchanged. "To guarantee the exactitude of the payments, the Sardinian Government will deliver as a deposit to that of his Imperial and Royal Majesty at the moment of the exchange 01 the ratification of the present treaty, sixty inscriptions of a million of francs each in capital, or of 50,000 f. of rente each on the grand liere of the public debt of Sardinia. " The inscriptions will be restored to the Government of his Sardinian Majesty, in proportion to the instal. ments which shall be paid at Vienna, in ready money, or in bills of exchange on Paris, at each term, and to the amount of six million of francs, as is above stipulated. " It' the Sardinian Government for any reasons, what ever they may be, should fail to retire these inscriptions, and to make the stipulated payments, it is understood, that two months atter the expiry of the term, if not paid, the Government of his Imperial and Royal Ma jesty should be authorised, by that very fact, to cause to be sold each time, at the Paris Bourse, renter to the amount of the six millions fallen due, and the deficit which might result from the transaction, compared with the nominal value, will be at the expense of the Govern , ment of his Majesty the King of Sardinia, which will be bound to pay it, with the least possible delay, in ready money, together with the interest which may have fallen due till that payment shall have actually taken place. " Art. 3. His Majt sty the Emperor of Austria binds himself, on his side, to cause to be exacuated by the Austrian troops, within the delay of eight days after the ratification of the present treaty, the States of his Majesty the King of Sardinia, or the Sardinian terri tory, in the limits established by Article 3 of the treaty of peace of this day. _ _ _ "'Art. 4. As there exists for a long time between Sar• dinia and Austria a contest with respect to the line of demarcation near the city of Pavia, it is agreed upon that the limit at that place shall be formed by the thal weg of the canal called Grave Hong, and that a bridge shall be built by common accord at the common expense over the said canal, on which no portage will be levied. " Art. 5. The two high cnntracting Powers, desirous of giving more extension to the commercial relations of the two countries, bind themselves to negotiate hereafter a treaty of commerce and navigation on bases of the strictest reciprocity, and by w hich their respective sub jects shall be placed on the footing of the most favoured nation; on that occasion the question of the mixed sub jects will also be taken into consideration, and the prin ciples will be laid down which ought to regulate their ciprocal treatment ; and, with the object of facilitat ing and favouring the legi.imate commerce to the fron tiers of their territories, they both declare that they wish mutually to employ all the mans in their power to suppress smuggling. In order the more effectually to attain this object they revive and restore to vigour the convention concluded between Austria ,land Sardinia on the 4th of December, 1834, for two years, to commence on the Ist of October next, with the condition laid down in the 24th article of the said convention, and determine that it shall be considered as renewed from two years to two years, unless the one or other of the parties declare to the other, three months at least before the expiry of the period of two years, that it must cease to have effect. The two contracting parties bind thtret•elves to introduce successively in the said convention all the ameliorations which circumstances may render necessary for the attain ment of the end which they have in view. "Art. 6. The Austrian Government, in return for the advantage which the renewal of that convention will procure for its commerce, consents to the revocation of the - one concluded on the 11th of March, 1751, between the Sardinian Government and that of Lombardy, and declares in consequence that it will have no force for the future; it consents besides to revoke immediately after the ratification of the present couven lion the decree of the Aulic Chamber, which h as im posed, from the date of the lit of May, an additional tax on the wines of Piedmont. 4t Art., 7. The present separate and additional arti cles will have the same force and value as if they had this bee day.insertedn They will be eword ratified,in the a n d p r t i h n e c i i r p "In faith of which, the respective Plenipotentiaries h av e signed and sealed with their arms. al ratificationtreaty o will take place at the same time. f " .Done at Milan, the day of It will be seen from the above counter-project that the sKW offered by Sordiaig 18 seventy-five millions UME.

The CorMnission of Government named by the POPE had published the following ManifestO : " The Government Commission of State, in the name of his Holiness Pope Pius IX., happily reigning, to all his siiii,-ets of his temporal dominions:— " Divine Providence has delivered the people of the whole Pontifical State, and especially that of the city of Rome, seat and, centre of our most holy religion, from the tempestuous whirlwind of the •bdudest and most wicked passions; by the invincible and glorious; arm of the Catholiciorces. Therefore, the Holy Father, faith ful to his promise announced by his venerated Motu proprio, given at Gaeta, on the 17th of last month, sends us now among you with full poWers, •in order to repair by the best means, and as soon as possible, The serious evils produced by anarchy and the •clespozism of a few men; Our first care shall be 'that religion and mo rality be respected by all as the basis and foundation of every social bond ; that justice have its full and regular coarse for every one indistinctly, and that the. administration of public matters may receive the organization and improvement :which is so neces sary after the unworthy misrule exercised by dews gognes :without sense or name. To obtain these very important results, we shall seek the arivice . of persons distinguished for their intelligence and zeal, and for the general confidence they enjoy, which contributes so much to the success of affairs. The regular order of matters requires that there shall be calkl to the direc tion of each Ministry men of integrity and experience in the branch to which they are to devote' their attention with the greatest alacrity; therefore we shall name withoutdelay those who shall direct the affairs of the Interior' and Police, those of - Justice, Finance, and Arms, as well as Public Works and Commerce; while Foreign Affairs shall remain in the .hands Of the Most Eminent Cardinal Pro-Secretary of State, who, during his absence, shall have a substitute at Rome for ordinary matters. Thus may, as we hr:,pe,; confidence be re stored among every class and order of. persons, while the' Holy Father in his really benificent mind is considering the means of gtanting :such improve ments .and institutions as . are compatible with his most elevated dignity and power. of Supreme Pontiff, with the nature of this state, the preservation of which interests the whole Catholic World, and with the real wants of his beloved subjects. • .

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN - EXCHANGE.—MONDAY. Notwithstanding the prevailing showery weather, our accounts from the forward districts state that consider able progress had been made in the cutting of Wheat and Barley in the past week. In the north, the crops are progressing favourably. Tee navigation of the Baltic, Elbe, and Weser, being now open, large arrivals of grain may be expected from these quarters by the close of the present month. From the leading country markets, held on Saturday, we learn that the Corn trade ruled heavy, at further depressed rats. Up to our market, last week, the receipts of all grain of home produce was very small. The Foreign imports amounted to 7,749 quarters of Wheat, 4 799 ditto of Barley, 19,569 ditto of Oats, 250 ditto of Rye, 133 ditto of Beans, 390 ditto of Peas, 7,950 ditto of Linseed, 12 ditto of Mustard Si.ed, 500 ditto of Indian Corn, 74 ditto of sunory seeds; 1,059 sacks and 6 barrels of Flour. Fresh up for this morning's market, there were received about 100 quarters of new English Wheat, about a moiety being from Essex, the remainder from Kent. The parcels, mostly Telavera, were not in first rate condition, from their having been prematurely cut, yet they were disposed of at from 50s to 51s per quarter. The weight of the samples varied from 51 to 511 lbs per bushel. With old Wheat, of home produce, we were very scantily supplit d; yet the quantity on offer was fully adequate to the demand. Owing to the flying showers, the I.,ctors were somewhat firmer than on this day se'nnight, and a fair clearance of the stands was effected at last week's decline in the quota Lions. The market, however, closed somewhat heavily. Tiro quantity of foreigu yylicat 912 offer us not large, 4/be:supply received here , , sittee , Sttturtlay having been snip 11.

Although' the supply of Malt was by no means large, the de mand tor that article was soinewliat heavy. In prices, however, we have no change to notice. the supply of home-grown Oats. was trifling, that of . foreign moderately good. A fair . average amount of business was passing in most kinds,' at fully previous' rates. In Beans scarcely any business was transacted, at about stationary prices. New Peas - were 2s per quarter lower than on Monday last. In 'old qualities next to nothing doing. Indian Corn and Meal very' dull. The Flour trade was dull, but we have no further decline to notice in value. • CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

For the time of year the receipts of beasts from our various grazing districts, fresh up this morning, were but moderate and of middling quality. As the attendance of both town and country buyers was good and the dead markets were well cleared of their late supplies, the Beet' trade ruled steady, at prices quite equal to those obtained on Mon day last. A few very superior Scots sold at 4s, but 33 10d was the top general figure for beef. From Lincoln shire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire, we received about 900 short horns; from Norfolk, S uffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, 800 Scots, home breds and short horns; from the western and midland counties 400 Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c.; from other parts of England, 350 of various brees; and from Scotland, 200 horned and polled Scots. There was a considerable increase in the number of Sheep compared with those exhibited on this day se'n night. Fur all breeds the demand ruled steady, but not to say brisk, at full rates of currency. The finest old Downs sold at from 3s 10d to 4s per Blbs. We were again well supplied with Lambs, in but middling condi uon. Prime Down qualities sold steadily; other kinds of lamb slowly, at last week's prices. Calves, the sup ply of which was good, moved off heavily at unaltered quotations. In Pigs scarcely any business was, doing. Prices, however, were mostly supported: Per 81bs. to sink the offal.' s. d. to a. d. I S. d. to 9. d: Ulterior Beasts..... 2 8 210 Second qual.

Owing, it is presumed, to the presence of cholera in this country, these markets have•undergone a consider able change, since our last report. The imports, from abroad, have been confined to 72 bags from Rotterdam; 44 tons from Ghent; 60 baskets from Antwerp; and 207 ditto from Ostend; but the supplies of home-grovqn on offer have considerably exceeded the demand.

The balance sheet shows a deficiency in July, 1848, Of 5151, and the debts n ow d ue amount to 8701 There are no assets, th e b an k rupts b ar i ng assigned some houses, which had cost 2,2001,, to George Waterhouse, a brother of one of the bankrupts, for a debt alleged to be due to him. The solicitors to the assignees required a further account as to this debt. Mr. COOKE, for the bankrupts, contended that the present accounts were quite sufficient, as the creditors had got a copy of the schedule filed by the bankrupts in the Court of Insolvency. He could not understand why the creditors did not oppose the bankrupts there instead of suing out a fiat. The solicitor to the assignees said the creditors thought they could do better in this court. His HoNon. said the creditors were entitled to furtlii. l accounts, and the examination must be adjourned. Mr. COOKE then applied f or some tra d e tools, vel*°,, had been allowed by the In so l vent C ourt, as excep ted articles, but which bad been taken by the messenger. Mr, Groome, the official assignee, said that the cre ditor's assignee would not consent to the property being given up, as there were not assets sufficient to cover the expenses.
