A new piece, from the pen of Mr. Maddison M . orton, was produced on Thursday last. It met with a highly favourable reception, which it well de served, birth from its intrinsic merit and the creditable manlier in which it was put upon the stige. The d'alugue h grateful and poirred, and the plot inge. 11 "ns. It turns chiefly upon the character of Fran cesca, Princess Regent of Portugal, who has married ,below her rank. She is a most affectionate wife; 'ant, jealous in the extreme of any interference with her power; whenever, therefore, her husband asks a Place for a friend, or any other political favour, his wishes are thwarted. Seeing this, he pretends to be the enemy of a proti s ge of his, whose advance talent he desires and by this feigned hostility obtains. This p,rson, exceedingly well re presented by Mr. NV. Farren, jun., not being in the secret, is equally amazed at his friend's opposition, and his own preferment, and thus several novel and Piquant situations arise. An impertinent place hunter was excellently acted by Mr. Compton, a gentleman whose comic talent is well known to be of the first class. Francesca was played by Mrs. Stirling with infinite viva• Murray,cY yet lady-like dignity, and her husband by Mr. Leigh al wbo deserves great praise for the artistic manner in which 1.0 portrays character. The dresses and appointments were very complete, and we have no doubt that li hen there's a Will there's a Way will have a run not inferior to John Dobbs, Honesty is the Best Policy, and others its predece6sors.

The Rtv. Dr. RUSSELL the rector, occupied the chair, and expressed his sorrow that a pre•engagement of an important character would make it necessary for- him to geit the encetiog early. Indeed he would have asked the churchyard , es to poetp..ne the meeting to another day, it he had not been afraid that to some it might seem like a watt of interest in a subject which at present was sit-important. In respect to that subject, he might be allowed to state that they might discuss it from noon to midnight. llr. METCALFE HoOPGOOD rose to order. He said it was quite in order for the rector to apohgise for his non. attendance, but he hoped that nothing would fail from him to pi ej tediee a oi-cus:::ion which wcs still to be held, or to prejudge a statement which he (Nlr. Hopgood), as bringing the suj-ct before them, had yet to make. Dr. RUSSELL said if after discussion they should ap point a committee, as the rector and churchwardens would probably be members ex officio, he would render the parishioners all the service he was capable of, and indeed do everything in Accordance with their wishes.— ( dear, hear.) He hoped they would allow him to state two things before leaving the meeting. The first was, that in consequence of communications received, the guardians had prohibited oa the 22d of August last the burial of paupers in the churchyard. Again, ho wished to remind them of an Act of Parlianient which very re cently received the Royal assent, and a copy of which was sent him by the Board of Health, the other requiring a detailed statement from him of all the deaths and bu rials which took place in the parish. The Rev. Gentle man, after deprecating anything like difference or disa• greement between himself and the parishioners, then retired from the meeting. Mr. JAMES R. CARR, churchwarden, then took the chair. Mr. 1101 , 0 )CD said it was no intention of his to use one word at all offensive to the rector or any other gentleman in the meeting. He was afraid that the rooter was about to introduce to them a- statement relative to the guardians, which he was sure must have misled the meeting if lett unexplained. It was in conse quence of fears he entertained of such a statement being made that he had taken the unusual ceurse of sending round a circular to the parishioners. He trusted that the position he had taken up with regard to the sanitary movement would seem the less out of course since the ward had done him the honour of electing him a com missioner of sewers; and, in regard to the more imme diate subject of their meeting, he appeared before them as one having business premises that looked into the churchyard, so as to have been compelled to become an unwilling witness of the proceedings in that place. lie was sorry to say he had seen transactions in the church. yard for many years which were a disgrace, he would not say to the rector, or the churchwardens, or any in dividual whatever, but to the system of burial in the heart of large towns. Since the public agitation on the sal} ct began he had from time to time received com munications, and only that morning others had come to him containing details of a most . di-gusting cha racter. At that meeting, however, he said he was de termini d to disclose no details for the mere purpose of excitement. In consequence of representations which had reached him, he said his attention had for some time teen called to a pit in the churchyard. He saw the pit, and he was told that it remained open for the reception of bodies for days and days together. He did not believe the report, ens he therefore called the inspector of police, and with him and others proceeded to examine the pit. They had not removed more than two or three feet of earth when they came to a coffin. The churchwarden who should knowingly per mit this preceed:ng was liable to a heavy petelty. Whether he knew ot• it he could not say; but be believed that there was not more than two teet and a half of earth upon that coffin—a circumstance which was posi tively prohibited under penalty by the City of London sewers Act. He was told, however, that in the pit one, two, or three were piled one upon another, if so many were brought in one day, and then five or six feet of earth were thrown over them, to be all removed, t xcepi. a few inches, for the interment of others next day. That was a preceeding which was unwholesome, and prohibited under penalty. Any opinion which he might give as to the unhealthy character of these circumstances would be of little consequence; he depended on the learning and skill, and research, of such gentlemen as ho saw before him—as Dr. Hamsbottona and others. Dr. Adam Clark said—" Every man should know that the gas emitted from putrid flesh, and especially from the human body, is nut only unfriendly to, but destructive of human life." But whilst he was making examinations in the churchyard he was attracted by an unusual ap pearance in the shed at the end of the churchyard. He inquired what was there, and ascertained that it was the corpe of one who had died of the cholera. Yet exactly over that shed containing the dead body were the Ethel burga Schools, at one ut the windows of which were three or four little girls amusing themselves, uncon scious of the poison they were inhaling. Yet it was a familiar fact among medical gentlemen, that children breathe nearly twice as quick as adults, and about twice as often; so that their blood receives a double dose of the poison inhaled. These poor children, for whom the parishioners paid their guineas, were sent there for secular and moral education; and, anfortunately, they were now obliged to look upon them in circumstances the most fatal to their existence. He said, he had lisened the other day with great profit to a popular lecture, delivered by Mr. Grainger on the sanitary condition of the metropolis; and from that lec• ture he learned that medical men knew, months ago, in what districts the cholera would appear, if it visited London. The lecturer, on that occa sion, brought out a large map, partly coloured black, and traced his finger over a certain dotted line, saying that exhibited the progress of the cholera, and that line he remarked, invariably paased in the neighbourhood of graveyards. It was not one division of the churchyard only, but altogether it was in a state which made the toleration of it any longer impossible. They had it on good authority, and their own senses convinced them, that dead bodies emitted gases of the most deadly de scription to human life, and they ought not to allow in terments in the City any longer. He was not to be stopped from preventing wrong by any consideration of ees, whether of 201. or of I,uool. He, therefore, was pressed by the circumstances to send a letter to the guardians, and also to the rector. The rector, in his usual kind way, sent him a reply, stating he would do all he could to remedy the evil complained of, pro vided it was found to be au evil. But he (Mr. Hop• good) said he was nut in that meeting to discuss whe ther the practice of intramural burials was an evil; on that point he had made up his mind. Ile on that oc• casion waited on the board of guardians, when, after much discussion and some little difficulty, he got them to promise um geivocaLy that no more pauper burials should take place in the churchyard. Ile said, in mov ing in the meeting that day, his object, although imme dietely local, extended to the system wherever practised of burying in large mats or towns. At the same time, he had nu desire to interfere with vested rights; and he t h o u g ht, while they must act in defiance of these imme dietety, they could ultimately be compen , ated. The speaker then lead the resolutio which he proposed fur the adoption of the meeting. It affirmed the danger at tending intramural burials, and appointed a committee to inquire cud report as to the best means of remedy lug the evil in that parish. Mr. BRIGGS, interrupting, asked him whether he sup posed they could hinder burying in the churchyard or under the church? lie had a vault; and if any of lis !welly were to die, did they suppose he would be hin dered from using his on n vault by any resolution of the vestry? lie advised them rather to apply to the House of Commons. - - St. Saviour, Southwark ••• - Hackney ••• ••• .•• blington ••• ••• •• • - Kensington ... ••• ...

Mr. HOECOOD said the gentleman must know that the members of that assembly 'were now engaged on the moors, end would be for some time. What he wished the vestry to do was, to make a strong declaration on the subject, not that lie Wl3B such a fool as to suppose any resolution of theirs could override the law of the land, i but he still believed that their opinion, strongly ex pressed, would go fir to prohibit the churchwardens and Lae rector from encouraging such burials. Ile wished, in fact, such an expression of opinion (as would be a moral obstruction to the carrying out of the law. Why, when they knew the character of the gasses emitted from dead bodies, were they to permit, whatever it might cost, the interment of them longer in an over. crowded church yard, or in the vaults under the church. Lead was of no aid in confining these gases—that was a popular delusion. Revelations were now made as to these leaden shells that were astounding. The gases puffed them out to the full extent, and, if not relearned, burst them with the report of a pistol. To prevent that, however, the sexton was employed in a process of what was called " tapping:" he made a puncture in the shell, so as to give vent to the gas into the vaults and the church overhead. Already the doings in the crypt of Bow Church were before the public; and why should they tolerate the nuisance any longer in the church where they were essemblel ? As to the churchyard, perhaps gentlemen were •not aware of the number of bodies deposited in it. He could give them on the authority of the parish books the details for the present 3 ear. In January there were haired 17, in February 17, in March 15, in April 12. in May 20, in June 9,in July 11, and in August 35, mulling iu a 11136 bodies deposited whhin that small space, which was comprised within the southern half of the ch urch yard. Yet the very shortestlime allowed for the destruction of the human body was tive years. The consequence therefore a as that the bodies were placed within four or five feet of the surface. Then look to the neighbourhood they were in. There were neighbouring churchyards still more crowded than theirs was. In Spitalfiel6s' burying-ground, he had reason for believing, although he had not been able to ascertain the fact from weir books, that as many as 50 bodies were being deposited weekly, and in Bethnal green as many as 100 a week. With 150 bodit s added weekly to the corrupting mass now in the neighbour hood, how could the locality be healthy. It was asto nishing, that in spite of all difficulties, tnese should not be removed to be) end the precincts of the metropolis, which now contained no fewer than 250 burying grounds. lle was sure that the parishioners, rather than endure the disease and death among their families at present, a ould compensate for fees to the rector, or to tne sexton, and give vaults elsewhere to those who now claimed them Lanier the church. He concluded by moving the resolution which he hail read. Mr. SCAMBLER OWDEN, Common Councilman, se cond, d the resolution. He said he bad heard one allega tion, made in a petition to the Commou Council, to the ffect that since the 221 of August the guardians had renewed the burial of paupers in the churchyard. Was that true? The CHURCHWARDEN—No; it is not true. Mr. PARNELL could not agree with the resolution which had been moved. Instead of appointing a com• TO THE RIGHT HON. LORD DUDLEY STUART My Lord,—Pray excuse my troubling your Lordship with the accompanying 24 rosewood paper knives, made from a pattern which was given to a lady by an Hun garian, which was made of oak. As it is not in my power to contribute to the fund in money, I trust those trifles will find purchasers amongst the friends of free dom. If the ladies would get up a fancy fair in aid of the wounded and widows, I will ,;,ladly make 24 more, besides F e silk-winders. As I do not wish my name to be made public, it might be noticed as a contribution of a week's work and ma terials by a working man, B. C. N., and I hope the example may be of some service, as there are many who can contribute their labour but not money. I feel that we cannot do too much for a people who have proved themselves worthy of freedom. Your Lordship's most obedient servant, C. ept. 4, 1849.

AN UNWELCOME VISITOR—At the moment of putting the Standard to preys this day (Friday), we were unceremoniously visited by a bullock of huge di mensions, on its way from Smithfield to the slaughter house. Having walked into our machine-room, he took up his station between two engines, where he became, for about fifteen minutes, a fixed prisoner, not being able to extricate himself from his tiifficult position. By the as sistance of drovers and others, however, his liberation was at length effected, to the great delight of ourselves. and apparently not less so to the beast itselt.—Standard.

The Lord Mayor on that cccasion accompanied him to the churehe ardens and the rector, n ate of whom were in; but he hoped to see him at the meeting that day, so much interest had he been pleased to express on the sub ject. As for any fear of &tine- what was illegal, he thought the time was come when, to use the language of a great man, they must exercise a vigour beyond the law. Ones their city was in flemes, and then the people exerted themselves in pulling down their neighbours' houses, an act which wt.:es felony by the law, but it was done for the putle. , se of checking the fleines. He asked now, when men's lives were at stake, when the disease was encroaching on them, whether they were to be delayed by the technieelitie3 of the law in preventing what was a grievous wrong upon the whole parish ? Ile moved, as an amendment, that henceforth the south division of the churchyard be closed, and that no interments take place in it on any pretence whatever. Mr. GREEN, in seconding the amendment, said that, living just opposite the churchyard, "his bedroom was visited in the morning with an f filavititn which was disgusting. He complained that the whole atmosphere in Bishopsgate-street stunk. No such smell existed in Wormwood-street or Liverpool-street, and he attributed its existence in Bishopse, , ate-street to the churchyard. Mr. TACO said it might seem unreasonable to close the portion of the ground which was allotted to the poor, while they left it in the option of those who could pay more to bury still in the neighbourhood. It was striking at a branch only, when they ought to lay the axe to the root of the Upas tree. He would have it all closed up, whatever might be the effect upon fees; for it was a trine preached from th a t pu l p i t t h a t duty was binding upon them, however it might affect their worldy interests. lie felt himself obliged to send his children fifteen miles into the country to stop the horrible stench which poi soned the air iu consequence of the barbarous practice of burying the dead among the living. The Act of Parlia ment, it was true, required that five feet of earth should bo laid above the coffin ; but he believed it was daily vio lated iu the absence of persons who had any authority to see it carried out. In the vaults lead was of no use, and the arched vaults above were of little use, so long as between those two pillars (pointing to the south of the church under the organ gallery) two trap-doors opening into the crypt existed, ill suited to keep down the stench, and though c .ncealed with matting, not the less destructive to those who worshipped in the church. He would never allow his children to worship in a place so infested with plague. They all knew that a celebrated surgeon the other day opened his bedroom window, which looked into a graveyard where two graves were opene:l. The gentleman felt himself on the sudden seized with the poison, and from that moment he concluded himself a dead man. Mr. Aston Key died in twenty-four hours after. He said he was sorry that the House of Commons, or others, should have ever trusted to the evidence of grave-diggers, whose ex aggerated statements had thrown an air of the ridiculous over the report of the Committee of that House upon the) subject. But let them state the truth, express a strong opi- Moe, and he defied any one to come forward in the face of the press of this country, and claim the right of burial amidst the masses - of the living. H e move d , as ate amendment—" That it is highly danger o u s t o t h e li v i ng to bury the dead in the midst or the population; that till interments in the churchyard of this perish, and in the vaults under the church, be henceterth discontinued; and that a committee be appointed to carry oat the objects of this resolution, and to take every measure to enforce them." Mr. T. HALL seconded the resolution. Tee LORD MAYOR, who had enter, d the vestry during the meeting, and was at once cordially greeted by all pre sent, now rose to address them. lie said—Mr. Church warden and gentlemen, I owe you an apology for appear ing here to interfere eith your local matters, but I felt it. no more than my duty, not only as Lord Mayor, but else as one of the Members for the city of London, to coins for the purpose of ascertaining what your senti ments are upon these subjects, as I am now a b ou t to attend a meeting of the Board of He a lth i n the West-end. In the meantime I have called attention to the subject as to which you are met by a circular letter sent round to every churchwarden in the City, with a view to strengthening their hands in their endeavour to remedy the evil. Although the law will not strictly allow us to proceed with the removal of this nuisance, still I have just received a copy of a recent Act of Par liament, which, at least, renders it questionable whether we shall not be able to deal with it. I felt it but re spectful, in consequence of a memorial which was pro sented to ma in reference to the present state of the churchyard, and understanding that you were to hold a meeting today on that subject—l say I thought it re spectful to come here to know what were your sentiments, and what you proposed to do, for I nen determined to use all means to induce the authorities to accede to your wishes.—( Hear, hear.) Any resolution which you may come to, although not all potent, will yet go as far as it is possible for such a resolution to go towards attaining the olijeet you have in view. I will not say more, and I cannot continue longer amongst you, as I must now at tend a meeting of the Board of Health. His Lordship then left the church, after distributing several copies of his circular letter, a copy of which we annex:— "Guildhall, Aug. 28, 1849. " Gentlemen,—l am directed by the Committee of Health, appointed by the corporation of London to in. form you that the strongest representations have been made to them by the officer of health of the City, that the interment of the dead in the confined churchyards is in his judgment most dangerous to the health of the in habitants of this City, and calculated to propagate the prevailing epidemic, which appears to be on the increase. " The committee desire me to say that they look with the greatest confidence to the public spirit and philan thropic feeling of the parochial authorities to suppsess this practice in your parish during the prevalence of the disease. " I am directed, at the same time, to refer you to the provisions of the Act of the 12th and 33d Victoria, cap. 111, on this subject.—l am, sir, your obedient servant, "H. A. MEREWETHEIt. " To the churchwardens of the parish of --." Some conversation ensued as to the amalgamation of the various resolutions. The CIIURCHWARDEN said he should be happy to be strictly bound not to permit more burials in the church yard or the vaults, and ha should do all he could to obey such a resolution.—(Hear, bear.) Mr. HOPGOOD at length,- by leave of the meeting, withdrew his resolution, and substituted the following:— " That in the opinion of this vestry the public health is lamentably endangered by the continued practice of in terring the dead in the parochial burying-grounds and in the vaults under the church; and that all interments in the churchyard of this parish and in the vaults under the church be henceforth discontinued; and that a cuin• aiittee be appointed to carry out the ref.lutior:, with full powers to th he every measure for its enforcem,ut.” The CHURCHWARDLN said, before putting the resolu tion he wished to say it would give him great pleasure to put that resolution in force. During the time he haft acted as churchward.-n his attention had been care fully given to the churchyard, with a view to the sani tary condition of the neighbourhood. As to the shed at the bottom of the yard, ho was called on to clf-ar it out by the Commissioners of Sewers, for the reception of bodies, if necessary. The other amendments having been wale...ram], tie resolution wise passed without a dissenting voice. A committee was then appointed, consisting of the rector, the church.% arch es, Messrs. Hopgood, Owdee, Hall, Tagg, Gilpin, and Taylor, to carry out the rest.... Mr. JAYNE, Still-alley, Bitihopgate- street, came to complain of a nuisance which had been occasioned by the Commissioners of Sewers. He said they came on Friday fortnight and pumped out the contents of the cesspools in the court into the sewer. After seven days they came again and turned cut the contents of the cesspools into the middle of the court, and left it there all Friday and Saturday, the stench being intolerable. He himself at the dk sire of the neighbours, went to differen: quar ters ou Saturday night, applying to have it removed, and at last they came. Whin they came to remove it, how ever, instead of carrying it away, they lifted the flag pavement, dug a hole, and buried it in the court. No sickness or disease was existing in the court up to this time; but on Sunday morning, a man living in the alley was seized with cholera, and taken to the hospital, where he died in a few hours. His children were seized with cholera; another man with severe diarr hea; two children in the next house died; and of his (Mr. Jayne's) own family, where no sickness previously existed, one child was taken with cholera, but recovered with great dificulty. He felt i t right to expose this disgraceful conduct of the Commissioner?. The meeting then separated.

(From the London New Price Current, Sept. 7.) SUGAR.—To-day a small amount of buaines was con chided in the West India Sugar market, and the sales amounted to 350 hhds, &c. Prices closed the same as on Friday last, and the purchases for the week amounted to 1,944 lihds, &e. The quantity of both Colonial and Foreign Sl , gar offered to-day was less than for some time put, and the market closed with a steady appearance. REFINED.—To day Refined Sugar was dealt in with more freedom, and former rates are well supported; the market has decidedly a firmer appearance, and brown grocery lumps are not to be obtained under 485 61 per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar is in limited demand. Me n ..nrans.---Prices have undergone no further de pression fer either grocery or refining sorts, as the quantity brought to market was less than in the former week. Still only a limited business has been concluded by private treaty, and the parcels offered at auction, amounting to 2,478 bags, were only in part sold ; fine yellow went at 39s to 40s, middling to good 37s to 38s 61, low 35s 6d to 36s 6d, ordinary and low brown 30s to 325, middling to good 32s 61 to 348 6d, fine 35s to 35s 6.1, ordinary and middling grey 35s to 37s 61, good and fine 38s to 38s 61, and grainy: 38s 6d to 39s 61 per cwt; a fair proportion consisted of the lower descriptions. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon full rates were obtained for Bengal Sugar, but the dema nd was not more active. A public sale of 1,7 93 bag s went at from 37s to 40s 6d for ordinary to good yellow Ilce Mauritius, and at 36s to 40s for damp and washed. For Madras the market has a qr.iet aspect, and at auction 1,489 bags were taken in at 33. to 34s for low soft yellow. FOREIGN.'-Today there was no public sale of foreign Sugar, but by private treaty a fair amount of business was concluded at full rates.

A letter from Ar ad, addressed to one of the Vienna 1 journals, states that, after giving up the Dictatorship to Georgey, Kossuth enrolled himself as a simple soldier in the artillery, and actually served during the few days which preceded the capitulation at Vil lagos. We learn from Vienna (says the Independance of Brussels), under date of the Ist, that General Georgey has received a pardon from the Emperor of Austria, and that he has already proceeded to Styria, where it is supposed he intends to reside. Nothing bad been settled with respect to the other Generals who bad surrendered. The Bucharest Gazette says, that on the 18th, twenty persons pretending to be Hungarian merchants presented themselves to the Turkish troops at Wert scherown, in Wallachia, but that they were ascer tained to be officers in disguise. Among them, it is said, were Dembinski and Messaros. It is added that the next day Kossuth and Perczel gave themselves up. They would, it was said, be sent to the fortress of \Viddin. The 331 Russian bulletin, published at Warsaw, states the 5000 Magyars of the corps of Bern, who laid down their arms near Deva, were with 42 guns and 40 ammunition waggons sent to Carlsburg. The corps of Gen.Vecsey which surrendered consisted of 26 staff officers, 479 officers, and 7,443 noncom , missioned officers and privates. Considerable excitement prevails at Vienna in refe • rence to the Hungarian bank bills. The Austrian Go vernment, at the commencement of the last campaign, declared the Hungarian Government bank bills null and useless. Field-Marshal Haynau has caused these bills to be burnt wherever Austrian troops have halted. Severe penalties have been imposed on those who shall secret these bank bills. The commander of the Rus sian troops, on the contrary, it is affirmed, has de clared these bills available, and that they are received by the Russian officers. This intelligence, which has arrived at Vienna from different parts of Hungary, has produced an impression in that city which it is not easy to describe. According to a letter in the Lloyd, it has been re ported in Pesth for some days past, that a sort of diplomatic negotiation has been entered upon between the Russian generals and.the leaders of the Hunga• rian insurrection, to induce the latter to submit. Concessions on the part of the pacified country are spoken of, for which the Russians have engaged themselves to be responsible to the Austrian Govern ment. It is possible that the entire or partial negotiation of the Hungarian bank bills may form part of the concessions. PRUSSIA. The Committee of the Second Chamber, to whom the documents relating to the German question were referred. has proposed the following resolutio9 : " After due examinstion of the documents and propo positions relative to the German question communicated in the name of his Majesty's Government by the royal Commissioner thereunto appointed, the Se cond Chamber announces its consent to the alliance concluded between the King's Government, Sax ony. It of May, and those of Hanover end °" It hereby declares itself prepared ° Government in the measures it hass('° P t ted l port unp the r egard to the German question, through the m edium of this alliance. It further recognises the application of the 1 1 th section of the constitution of the sth of December to the constitution which may be elaborated by the Chamber of the F e deral State to be convoked in virtue of the alliance. ' The Cologne Gazette says, that the navigation duties on the Rhine are about to be reduced 75 per cent. CENTRAL GERMANY. The Independence of Brussels publishes the follow ing letter from Berlin, 3d inst. : -• • Negotiations are still going on with a view to the establishment of a central provisional government for all Germany. The journal which have announced that everything is concluded and agreed upon are ill-informed on the subject. Negotiations are still pending, but nothing is yet decided on. Seve ral projects appear to have crossed each other from Berlin to Vienna and to Munich. Austria and Bavaria, at the commencement of the conferences, appear to have proposed a college of Princes, composed ei►her of two members, the one for Prussia, the other for Austria, and representing in their perious—the former the voice of the states of the north, and the latter those Paid. .0 s. d. 40 0 0 50 0 0 25 0 0 20 0 0 25 0 0 25 0 20 0 0 13 0 0 10 0 0 25 0 0 10 0 0 22 10 0 35 0 0 10 0 0 22 10 0 25 0 0 2 10 0 10 0 0 40 0 0 01KPANIES.

What there is the greatest chacce of being now dorm is the formation of a Central Provisional Commission, in which a Prussian Minister Plenipoten tiary will represent the whole Federal State, and an Austrian Minister Plenipotentiary the met of Germany. With regard to the simultaneous presence at Frank furt of the Prince of Pru.)sia and the Archduke John, it has no direct connexion with the establish ment of the Central Commission. Austria, in main• taining the Archduke, and in making him again appear on the stage, continues that policy which consists in supporting her eventual participation in the Constitution of Germany. As for the Prince of Prussia, he was obliged to fix his head-quarters in the neighbourhood of the cantonments of his corps d'artnee. If the interest of Prussia to neutralise the influence of Austria apparently coincides with the movements of our troops, this circum stance, perhaps fortuitous, cannot throw any obstacle in the way of a combination long since decided on, and independent of German affairs properly so called. w ( ' *;.r, • one of whom ,f ratiliuoh.' list c r!!‘=*4 'o rf tilik, i . 411 - 11 T bi), 104 elit VA.ei FROM THE LONDON GAZETTE OF FRIDAY.
