In an age of innovation like the present, when regard is princi pally restricted to the most modern institutions, and to the most recently contrived ceremonials, it becomes peculiarly interesting to observe the continuance of old customs, or the revival of antique festivities—and this not so much as a subject interesting to antique ries, as one important to all who are anxious to wit ness the maintenance of the spirit of nationality. Nowhere is this preservative principle more requisite than in the country of the ancient Britons, where it is rendered just now especially necessary as a means of counteracting the influence of those edu cational improvements which must before long be in troduced among the Welch multitude, and which, unless thus counteracted, must tend in a great mea sure to obliterate the national character. At any time, therefore, the public could scarcely fail to re mark with interest the celebration of this ancient fes tival, the festival of the Congress of Bards, otherwise called the Royal Eisteddvod, but more particularlz, must that popular interest in its performance be en hanced at a time like this, so singularly calculated to diffuse. its most beneEcill influences. It will copse. quently be with no inconsiderable curiosity or satis• fiction that the gent.raliry of lettered readers wil; scrutinize the reports published of the proccedingoi colis:ituticg the current feast of the Eisteddvod, and distirguirbing it from its scarcely numerable prede cessors. Contrasted with those predecessors, the pre sent celebration may Lack much of the ancient splen dour of the .Eisteddvod, either when held in the pre • scnce of the Prince of Powii at nithraval, of the Prince of South \Vales at Dinevawr, or of the Prince of North Wales at Aberftraw. In all other respects, however, the Eisteddvod of 1850 may - dispute the palm with all competitors, from the year 1100, the year of its first celebration, when the Prince GRITEFUDD invited across St. George's Channel the most illustrious of the bard a of Ireland to aid him i❑ compiling a code of laws for the better conduct of the Cambrian musicians. Under the presidency of Lord MoszyN, in the reign of Queen VICTORIA, and under the especial patronage of his Royal ll:ghness ALBERT, the youthful Prince of \Vales, the Rhuddlan Royal Eisteddvod assumes to itself, in 1850, a dis tinction in no degree inferior to that enjoyed on any prior occasion of its celebration. Acting under the inspiration :of the bard alaw (PARRY), who twenty years ago ventured, in spite of enormous opposition, to combine the wi:cheries of modern and ancient music in the performance cf this great national ceremony, the peseams entrusted with the direction and m snap • ment of the present year's Eisteddvcd, headed by the organist at the cathedral of St. Asaph, have resolved to carry out the scheme of the fes tivities in this artistic particular on a' scale of unusual magnitud-i and of unprecedented excellence. Learning this intention, the general ex pectations of the attendants of the Eistedivod must perforce have been materially increased ; yet not so much so, we are satisfied; j(from the ability of those deputed to preside over the proceadings), as to lead to anything like disap pointment. Whatever may be thought of the su • perior attractions of the modern and snore cultivated system of music, as it will he represented on this oc caeelor, we are persuaded, from the very nature of that occasion, that its blandishments will fail to eclipse the interest surrounding that contest of the bards which will yield oral examples of the ancient theories of harmony and instrumentation. Of the nature of this amicable and artistic contest, where various c smpetitors vie with each other for the dignity of supreme head or chief thin of the order, it is scarcely possible to speak in terms of exaggerated commendation, cal culated as it is to advance the most elevatin g and most humanhing of the fine arts both in regard to its own intrinsic improvement sled also, and in a pe culiar manner, in the national estimation. Umpires having been selected well skilled and accomplished in poetry, music, heraldry, and the Welch language, themes were propounded to the different bards for competition, the sub j 'ects ranging variously in any of the twenty-four metres, though always excluding per sonalities, erotic fancies, and satirical allusions. By this judicious arrangement everything provocative of irritation was scrupulously avoided, and the bards were restricted in their flights of imagination and effusions of melody to the atmosphere of high art, a region conducive only to the noblest ends conceiv able. Whether or not the present Congress of the Bards, commencing yesterday, will be productive of any outpourings of genius, or be merely the tedious contention of ambitious rn"diocrities, it would be idle, if not invidious, to conjecture. But this, at least, may be at once and safdy predicated of the Rbuddlan Royal E steddvod that its effect upon the intell4eit portion of the Welch population cannot fail to be Lceeficial, inciting the popular spirit of the country to new and nobler exertions, sustaining the love of nationality where yet remem bered, and reviving it where nearly forgotten and extinguished. Whatever may ba thought of tha preservation of these ancient ceremonies by those mho laugh them to scorn as idle relics of antiquity, it cannot be denied that, if useless in all other re spect, they are in the highest degree commendable and advantageous, inasmuch as • they directly tend to conserve the venerable sentiment of nationality. In this particular the Royal Eis teddvod must not in any way be confounded THE SIIN, with the fantastic revival of festivities such as the tournament at Eglinton, that cha rivari on the chivalric. On the con trary, it is of a character deservedly to he associated in idea with that beautiful ceremony recently holden in the birthplace of King ALFRED the Great on the thou.-,andth anniversary of his nativity. Each of these august festivities has appealed to the most ennobling of the national predilections of Great Britain, the one in Wales, the other in Eng land, inflaming tha patriotism and elevating the am- bition of the intelligent multitude. Quietly though the one was allowed to pass over, and noisily as the other is being celebrated, we cannot bring our selves to believe that the heart of England remained untouched by the homage paid at his tomb to the memory of the Great ALFRED, or that the genius of Wales will remain unmoved by the eloquence of the Bard Talhaiarn, or by the installation of the successful candidate in the bardic chair of the Eisteddvod. Mr. JONATHAN DUNCAN, to whose admirable lec tures on "labour, trade, and currency" we recently directed the public attention, differs materially from the generality of critics in some important particulars. He is not contented merely with finding fault, with exposing the errors of the existing system, or even in tracing those errors to their fountain and origin, but he also provides a suitable substitute, not only free from the evils he has so clearly explained, but bearing the most stringent ordeal, the most trying tests, to which it can be subjected. The disease is ascertained and an adequate remedy indicated—a remedy so simple and obvious that it is strange _how any person of ordinary capacity can still remain so deeply imbued with bullionist prejudices as to refuse assent to the principles and views so lucidly and distinctly put forward by the talented lecturer. That remedy is to restore gold to its natural posi tion as a commodity, to deal with it in the same manner as we do with cotton, iron, calico, or any other article subject to the ordinary rules of supply and demand. In such case the price or value will necessarily fluctuate—we shall not be compelled to pay the same price when there is a glut in the mar ket, and our coffers are full to overflowing, as when the commodity is scarce and in demand, and required, as it may occasionally be, for the purpose of correcting the foreign exchanges, as it is termed—a necessity which, under the present monetary code, has fre quently led to the most injurious consequences to the trade and commerce of the country, which has brought thousands and tens of thousands of indus trious and upright men to bankruptcy and ruin, and reduced their families to poverty and destitution, in order that what was termed " the integrity of the standard" might be maintained. These families were the hecatombs sacrificed to the Golden image which had been set up, before which all the interests of the nation, the welfare, and prosperity of the people were prostrated. In lieu of " gold" thus deposed from its functions Mr. DuNcaer proposes to establish a paper cur rency as the circulating medium of the country, and this paper he divides into two classes, viz., "national taxation money," to be issued by the Government, and "commercial money," to be issued by banking institutions, full security being previously deposited with the Government for the re demption in full of the " commercial money" so brought into circulation. By these means there would always be a "circulating medium" adequate to the wants and exigencies of the nation. The value of money would always be maintained at about the same rate, and those extraordinary fluctuations in the currency which RICHARD COBDEN—the RICHARD COBDEN of the Anti-Corn-law League, not of the Peace Congress—justly declared to have occasioned " greater evils, pecuniary, social, and moral, than the direct failures of all the banks of issue, since they were first established in this country," would be altogether prevented. The " taxation money" would have its source and origin in our fiscal wants, and its certain redemption in the same cause. It would, in fact, be to all in tents and purposes the same as the Exchequer-bills now in use, save and except that it would not, ac cording to Mr. DUNCAN'S views, bear interest; that it would be issued directly to the persons having claims on the national Exchequer without the inter vention of any intermediate parties, by which a large sum would be saved to the country, and, also, that it would be made in convenient amounts, not i❑ the large and unwieldy bills, which the lazi ness of a former Comptroller of the Exchequer introduced, and which the cupidity and influence of wealthy capitalists caused to be continued for their own private objects. It signified but little whether coins or pieces of paper were issued for that purpose; so long as the latter satisfied the claims of the tax gatherer, whose visits, unhappily, are not " few or ear between," they answered every purpose that could be desired, just as fully as if they possessed in trinsic value. Toe butcher or baker would not de nominate them " worthless rags," and refuse to give his joints or loaves to the holder, in exchange so long as ho was well assured that he could content the rate-collector, and that the farmer would gladly accept any surplus he might have beyond his own re quirements in payment for his cattle or corn. It would not, in fact, require the provision by which it would be rendered " legal tender," for without such a stipulation it would possess " a purchasing power" that would fully content the party to whom it was tendered. A party receiving " a pound" rarely in vestigates the quantity of gold or the fineness of the metal—all he desires is to be assured that when he wishes to part with it it will be ag sin accepted from him, in turn, at the same price or value which he him self gave for it. The amount of these notes, or " national taxation money," would be strictly limited by the wants of the country. Whatever sum or sums of money were voted by Parliament would be issued in each and every year, and they would find their way back to the Exchequer, and be cancelled in the course of that year. If 50,000,0001. sterling were granted to de• fray the demands of the public creditor, or for the maintenance of our national establishments, notes o convenient denominations should be issued to that amount, which would be paid to the fundholder for his dividends, to the officials in all the public offices in payment of their 'respective salaries or claims upon the Treasury, of any nature or kind whatsoever. The same amount would be collected in the course of the ensuing year, and these notes could never be de preciated below their nominal value, for they should be obtained and paid into the Exchequer. It would, in fact, be more likely to be at a premium than a discount.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. Monday was the last day on which the journals were permitted to publish political articles without a signature, and the Moniteur du Soir of Monday evening took advantage of its last anonymous number to publish the following manifesto of the PRESIDENT in opposition to the manifesto of the Count DE CHAM BORD. This important document is headed, " What the PRESIDENT desires," and is as follows: "The menacing attitude assumed for the last two months by the monarchical parties has excited great emotion both in Paris and in the departments. The country has a right to know what are the projects of Louis Napoleon in the event of the Royalists—united or disunited—of the two branches seeking to prevent the necessary prolongation of the Presidential powers. We think we are acquainted with these projects, and will state them in a few words. Louis Napoleon repudiates openly all dynastic arriere penae; he desires no other pro rogatives than those which he now enjoys. his sole ob ject is the re-establishment of order, confidence, and credit ; in a word, to close the era of revolutions. But, to accomplish the mission cf peace which has been reserved for him by Providence, it is necessary that the power of the President should have stability and dura tion. Louis Napoleon would not respond to the wish of the six millions of citizlns, who chose him as the symbol of the ideas of order a-id prudent progress inaugurated in 1789, if he were humbly to bo v his head to the Royalist coalition which imprudently agitates the coun try. Louis Napoleon hopes, then, that when the mo ment shall arrive for discussing the future condition of France—that is to say, to consolidate power definitely, or to decree anarchy—the National Assembly will com prehend the duties imposed upon it by circumstances, and the immense responsibility which it would assume in history if it wore to hesitate to save the immediate revision of the Constitution. If the National Assembly, forgetting that Franco desires above all things to be tranquillized, should refuse to adopt a measure impera tively demanded by public safety, Louis Napoleon would not hesitate to make an appeal to the entire people, from whom he has received his mission. And the people would decide whether the President of the Republic should adopt for his motto Abnegation or Perseve rance.' " The Assemblie Nationale, in an article signed ADRIEN DE LAVALETTE, atter quoting the Presi dential manifesto from the Moniteur du Soir, thus comments on it : " Is there not in this form and in this style the ap- pearance at least of a semi-official communication? Who would dare use this language if not authorised at least by a verbal confidence? And if the President does not cause a disavowal to be given to those who speak in his name, has not public opinion a right to pronounce itself severely on the anarchical conflicts and agitations which it is proposod to create for the country? Can it be by chance that persons have the idea that the heri tage of the parties who have combated the revolu tion is open, and that France is to be had by the first comer? We could comprehend perfectly that by the side of these gross declamations against the two dynastic parties, atter these declarations inspired by so republican a patriotism, this species of manifesto would have for conclusion the maintenance of the Constitution. That at least would be lo• gical. If the republican path be entered on, the course already marked out must be followed, the republican charter must be respected. What does the manifesto ask for? What does the Charg6 d'Affaires or the non official friend of the Ely:63 desire? First, the violation of the Constitution to the profit of the President alone. It is the policy of personal . right at its highest degree of egotism. What signifies this imperative command of the prolongation of the powers of the President, these me naces against the Assembly in case it should not engage in an attempt on the supreme power, in a conspiracy against the regular will of the nation? In tracing these menaces against legislative power, the too z alous entourage for gets that the Executive power is not armed with any article of the Constitution against the Parliament, and that the Parliament has all necessary means to defend itself and choose a protector to watch over the safety of the Re public. Were we not right in remarking how much the imprudent zeal of subalterns is injurious to all causes, and ought we not to be sad when all these deplorable faults give so great advantages to the party of disorder?" In all the journals, with the exception of the Journal des Debuts, the Ordre, the Republique, and the Courrier Francais, the political articles are signed by their respective writers. The Journal des Debuts contains no political article, and the others contend that the law did not come into operation until to-day. The following is a list of the writers who have signed articles in the various journals : Coßstitutionnel-111. Veron. Siec/e—M. Louis PerriP, redacteur en chef, aided by MM. Pierre Bernard, Louis Jourdan, Auguste Junin), and Hypplite Lamarche. Each man signs as for the committee. National—M. Leopold Duras. _ _ Ordre—M. ChainLolle, representative of the people. Presse—M.

Larentie and M. Lubis. Cluirivari—MM. Taxille Delord, Clement Caraquil, and Louis lluart. Putrie—M. Eugene Forcide. The Moniteur du AS'oir was not published in time fur post. M. DE LAROCaFJAQUELIN has addressed the follow ing reply to the remarks of the Union and the Opinion Publiquc on his letter protesting against the Wies baden manifesto : " I will not reply to the personalities which you have addressed to me. The good sense of the public will decide whether the grave questions which are cut short by the circular signed by M. de Bartl 61emy can be reduced to a petty question of persons. It will judge whether even the must elementary principles are Pot therein outraged in the most deplorable manner. I know you too is ell rot to know that you suffer as well as myself, but I take into account the exigencies of position. It is essential that I should not be accused of culpable susceptibility by charging me with having accepted or exaggerated without reflection this sad circular. You have not said that this circular was not official. You have not the right to say so. It was deliberated at Wiesbaden without the participation of the Prince, I am convinced, before August 30, a date given to it to produce more effect, and to avoid re possibility. The Duc de Levis had led me on the 14th, at Wiesbaden, to expe3t it. I left on the 15th. M. de Barthelemy announces that be is charged officially with this communication, and he is incapable of saying an) thing but the truth. And in order that no doubt should remain as to the authenticity of this poli tical dooument, does not M. de Barthelemy say- 4 0n my return to France, I shall have the honour, as previously, of transmitting to you the instructions of MM. de Levis, de St. Priest, Berryer, de Ptsstoret, and d'Escars?' Finally, the five members of the Committee have given their adhesion to this act. In fact, Mde Bartlie:emy finishes his circular by saying—' Not having taken your address to Germany, I considered it my duty to wait for my return to France to send you this circular.' So im portant a document not having been carried into execu tion before M. de Barthe'emy returned to Paris, is it possible to suppose that he could fail in propriety to such an extent as to publish it without having on his arrival submitted it to such of the persons named es were not present when it was drawn up. since it is well known that he is their secretary ? I repeat it, for such is the truth, the circular itself shows its authenticity ; and for all the Legitimatists of France the signature,of M. de Bartl Cerny includes those ef the five personages, named. flow can it be pretended that this circular was not to have been rendered public ? It was then a bad action that was to be concealed ? But in that case aby were so many copies of such a dccu meat sent to all the departments ? Why was it distri buted in an open office to known persons, who went to ask for it ? If it is of little importance, why is there so much noisy joy on the part of some madmen, and so much grief on the part of the immense majority of the Legitimatists ? No attempt ought to be made to dimi nish the importance of such a fault. There are but two ways of acting—to support it with energy, or to disavow it openly. The Prince has been deceived in the most culpable manner ; he has been deceived as to the wishes, the opinions, and the sentiments of France. Such is the truth. It is fur the Legitimatist party to see what it has to do. It is for those who have compromised the Prince to declare loudly and publicly that they have caused him to use a language which he has not used, and which ho could not have used. They are bound, in fine, to declare that the Count de Chambord was com pletely ignorant of this official circular. No men have a right to declare themselves devoted to a cause when they assume the right to ruin it. Ah 1 lam accused of hav ing been opposed to a conciliation amongst all parties, and which I desired most anxiously. Well, now I can bo judged of ' • and I will now complete the explanati on of my politica l views, which certain folks seek to misre present. I valued highly the monarchical pricciples, and those of liberty, of 'B9 ; I hava always pro fessed them; and without having approved of all the revolutionary acts and principles which followed the declaration of nullity of the cahier des clots, without having accepted the acts or principles of 1830, or all those of 1848, I did not dissemble from myself the profound root which these different revolutions had taken in the country; I was firmly convinced that the mo narchy could not be re-established in France, except by the national will freely expressed —an act which would c l tt e rhh g i rtd t i a m hee atv a ede c rr y a;y p t tt h hph a eien t a gre o e:m f d pftti fur ree e , awfi n gir a ets thsti ages, andplace all parti es i n accor d , b y uniting to the principle of violent l f a e tn regretted t in h e i a t d s r n h e o p I ugbr s wh o leoiaevereignty. We had not to be his own grandson, so much puissance did he see in the principal of traditional hereditary right; we had tried the m onarc h y of 1830, directed by an able prince, and in conditio ns apparently the most complete for the future; we now ar e trying the Republi c l ega ll y esta blished, and I said to myself: If it is true, as is as serted, that the Republic is hateful to the majority of France, let us consult the nation, and in case it returns to the Monarchy, by the national will, a conciliation is effected: all parties admit the inefficiency of all the trials made; they go back to the law of our fathers, and France addresses to the King these words which Mas sillon pronounced in presence of Louis XV., ' Sire, it is the choice of the nation whic h fir s t placed the tceptre in the hands of your ancestors; it is it which raised them on the military shield and proclaimed them sovereigns. to the free Royalty afterwards beca me the herita g e of their descendants; but they owed it o rig inally ccnsent of the French nation.

In a word, as the first source of their authority came from us, kings ought to make use of it fur our advantage. It is not consequently, Sire, the law which ought to reign over nations : you are only the Minister and first depositary.' Massillon was not excommunicated ! Are we to believe that this policy was that of a Legitimatist loving his country ? Or are we to believe that these sentiments found in France a feeling of repulsion ? Insensate men, who do not know our France, and who speak to it a language which our fathers never beard, and which they would never have compre hended I See now what was my line of policy; see how I comprehended that the king and the nation could affix the seal to a durable peace, and prof are for us days of happiness, and a stability agreed to after so many ex periments. Legitimacy would never be possible in France except on these conditions. It is for France to say this openly; it is for the Legitimatists to proclaim it aloud. We are more numerous than you, gen'tlemen of the circular, be assured. And, what is my personality to me? It had no other advantage than that of protesting cons tantly against a current which was carrying away the Legitimatists from their national course. To be convinced of this, kt the first letter of M. Poujoulat end the circular of the five be attentively read. I have combatted with all the energy of my convictions, with the highest sentiments of devotedness to France, and her traditions. If I am alone, according to you, alone I will remain. The part which I have to perform can no longer ha any other than that of a man of good intentions, who protests against the idea of his ever belonging to the party which has just declared itself. I will be silent in future against all attacks. If the most noble of causes brings valiant champions into the field of national right, let them de clare themselves and I will follow them, but what can they do until by a formal disavowal they shall have ceased to be powerless?

The customs' revenue continues to improve ; at Cadiz the receipts of the first eight months of last year amounted to 8,875,995 reals ; of the corresponding period of this year to 11,474,402 reals. A letter from Madrid of the 19th says :—" It is stated in well-informed circles, that Queen ISABELLA 11. has signed the nomination of Prince LOUIS NAPO LEON, as Knight of the Order of the Golden Fleece, and that the insignia of the Order are to be trans mitted to him . by the Spanish Ambassador at Paris." MADRID BOLSA, SEPT. 19.—Three per Cents , 34} ; Five per Cents., 13 1346. Exchange on London, 50 40 money. GERMANY. General HAYNAU dined with Baron ROTHSCHILD the day after his arrival at Vienna. He dined with the Prime Minister SCHWARZENDERG on the day fol lowing, and on the day after the EMPEROR gave him a grand dinner. This is the man who we were told was a poor exile in disgrace with his SOVEREIGN. The Wiener Zeitung states that an individual is now travelling through Germany who assumes the feigned name of ALEXANDER CHARLES PRINCE ALLI CERT, and gives himself out for a ltomish prelate and apostolic delegate. This individual arrogates to him self the liberty of using a seal, bearing the arms of the POPE, and even exhibits a document with the forged subscription of his Iloungss. We are authorised to declare that the said individual is no more entitled to bear the assumed name and character above stated than to use the seal of his HOLINESS ; and that the signature of the POPE to the document is a forgery. The re-organization of the artillery regiments will be comp!eted this year. Every corps is to have an artillery commander. The garrison ar tillery is to be formed into eight battalions, and em ployed on the fortifications ; a racquet corps is like wise to be organized. The Wiener Zeitung states that the consular post in Canea, on the island of Candia,is to be transformed into a salaried vice -consulate; VINCENT STIGLISH has been appointed the Austrian vice-consul there. A letier from Vienna of the 17th says :-- 17 Several banking houses of the four principal commercial places of Europe have proposed to the Government to take, on conditions very advantageous to it, the 100,000,000• lire of the Lombardo-Venetian Loan, but subject to the condition that the coupons shall be paid in the place in which they may be issued. The Government is disposed to make this concession. An agent of Messrs. ROTHSCUILD i 3 about to proceed to Verona to enter into negotiations for the loan." Forty-seven of the principal landowners of Aus tria, most of them nobles of Bohemia, have ad dressed a petition to the Government praying fur the prompt convocation of the States. They also pro test in energetic terms against the abolition of the tithes on mines. The restricted federal council of Frankfort, recently appointed a committee to examine the proposition of Austria, for confiding to a neutral commission the administration of the federal properties. In a report, just presented, the committee proposes the rejection of the proposition in the present state of things. " It is probable," says the Universal G azette, " t h at t h e council will not itself take the administration, and that, consequently, it will be retained by the existing ad interim central commission." Letters from Hanover of the 20th announce the death, on the 20. h inst., of the Councillor of State Count FALACKE. The utmost order prevails in Hesse- Cassel. The permanent Commission of the States, issued on the 21st, a declaration against the ordinance of Sept. 17, transferring the seat of Government to Wilhelinsbad. The Commission asserts that the constitution confers on it the right of co-operatin g io, and assenting to, all provisional measures that may be adopted accord ing to paragraph 95, and which can be of no effect without such co-operation. It has already declared its refusal to consent to the ordinances of Sept. 4 and Sept. 7, and it will exercise the rights conferred on it by the 61st paragraph of the constitution. It is said that the Elector has determined to dismiss Has- SENPFLUG. The Committee of Finance of the Second Chamber of the States of Besse - Darnistcdt proposed, by a re port presented on the 21st, to refuse to the Govern ment a prolongation of the autlaorisation to collect the taxes, and to declare the Ministers guilty of a violation of the constitution. The report was to be taken into consideration on a future day. The Grand Duke of MECYLENBURG SCUWERIN, by a recent decree, restores to the bailwicks of nobles and convents the powers in matters relative to re cruiting, and roads and bridge s , of which they were stripped by the Constitution of 1849. The officers of the 2d regiment of cuirassiers of Bavaria in garrison at Landshat has declared that there is no truth in the statement that they hai con tributed 60 florins to the fund for the Duchies of Schleswig-Ilolstein. .TAI. Y. The Marquis of BALESTRINO, Secretary to the Sar dinian Legation at Naples, arrived at Leghorn on the 16th, on board the Castor steamer, on his way to Turin. The object of his mission is said to relate to the refusal of the Neapolitan Government to admit Sardinian subjects within its territory. The' Armonia, a Turin journal, belonging to the clerical party, states, in its number of the 18th, that the instructions given to Cher. PINELLI wert', that he should apply at Rome for the removal of Monsignor FRANZONI from the See of Turin, and not treat of other matters, until he had gained that point. The case against onsign o r FRANZONI will, it is said, lee ready for trial by the end of this month. Cardinal FALCONIERI, Archbishop of Ravenna, has issued a manifesto inviting the faithful to a triduo (a reli gioui service, lasting three days) which is to commence on the 23d, in order to pray for Divine protection in favour of Monsignor FRANZONI. The town of Brescia has sent an address of thanks to the Piedmontese papers, thanking the inhabitants of the sister kingdom for their generous assistance on the occasion of the late destructive inundation. A letter from Bologna of the 16th announces that, in consequence of an order from Rome, the Lom. bardo-Venetian journals, and the Corriere Italiano of Vienna, are no longer permitted to enter the Papal territory. TUB GREAT CENTRAL GAS COMPANY.—The ap plication of the Chartered Gas Company to the Lord Chan cellor for an injunction to restrain the Great Central Gas Consumers' Company from laying their mains and pipes in contact with the plaintiffs' came on yesterday, at his Lord ship's private residence, tiaton-square. Mr. Walpole, on be half of the oefendants, asked for an extension of time, to enable h m to put in answers to all the affidavit?, some of which, he stated, had only been tiled that morning. The Attorney-General, who appeared for the plaintiff?, offered no objection, and the matter therefore stands over till the 10th of October, the defendants undertaking in the meantime not to lay any pipes or mains in contact with those of the plain tiff nor to execute any other works to their damage. The At torney-General then asked his Lordship that the motion should bo heard upon the same footing as it would have been had the arguments been gone into on the fire occasion, and notwith4tliindi ng any works which might be executed by the defendants in the interim. This having been agreed to, the parties retired. MINING IN NORTH WALER.—Mining in North Wales has received a decided impetus from the late dis covery of several valuable lodes both in Fiintshire and Me rionethshire. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

The supplies of foreign grain in Mark-lane to-day in clude $,910 quarters of wheat, and only 1,240 of English. The large number of vessels that have arrived in the Thames during the last two or three days have added immensely to our supplies of produce of all descriptions, and business in consequence is most active in certain de partments, though it remains to be seen whether the prices of some articles may not suffer. According ti a report made to the Legislature of Texas, in January, 1848, the public debt of the state at that time was as annexed:— PUBLIC DEBT OF TEXAS, JANUARY, 1848. Dolls.

The first loan of the 18th November, 1836, of 5,000,000 dulls., on a pledge of the public faith, and the proceeds of the public lands. The second by Act of the 16th May, 1838, for 5,000,000 dolls., at ten per cent, on a pledge of the public faith. The third by an Act of the 22d January, 1839, of 1,000,000 dolls., at eight per cent., on a pledge of the customs and duties on imports for the payment of the principal and interest. In June, 1837, Texas passed an Act to consolidate the debt, and then found irs amount 3,000,000 dolls.
