A deplorable illustration has just been afforded of the necessity for some systematic re-organization of the Federated States of Germany. Hesse Cassel has, this time, been the arena of a political struggle, de monstrating more clearly than ever the baneful con sequences of the present scheme of Confederation. In order to comprehend the precise character of this movement it must be borne in recollection that the principality ?n question is one whose affairs are con ducted, in some respects, under peculiarly advan tageous, and in others under peculiarly disadvantageous circumstances—circumstances materially affecting the merits of the principle contended for by the in ternecine belligerents. Cursed with one of the most unpopular rulers in Germany, Hesse has ever since 1831 been blessed with one of the most judiciously conceived and exquisitely balanced constitutions. Tne form of government secured to the Electorate, on the occa,ion of that revolutionary explosion which invested the Ducal House of Orleans with the purple of sovereignty, was shown, indeed, to have been fashioned with consummate judgment on that more recent and more formidable mindquake of 1848, which scattered to the winds and the waves the dynasty of the Barricades. At the moment when almost every country throughout the European con tinent was endeavouring to avail itself of the oppor tunity presented for the modification of charters, for the re-arrangement of authorities, for the re -distri bution of responsibilities, the smell but important /Rectorate of Hesse - Cassel showed itself to be satisfied w ith the boon of constitutional ad. ministration acquired during the last political convulsion. Tnis satisfaction, moreover, was ex pressed notwithstanding the unpopularity of the reigning ELECTOR, an unpopularity provoked by his own harsh policy and arbitrary temperament. Ner can we regard the occurrences which have just taken place between himself and his subjects as proving anything more glaringly than the justice of that prejudice against the Prince and that partiality for the Government. Wh e the Elector of Hesse has displayed the vices of his despotic character in a mannet calcu. lated to cover his name with an universal odium, the institutions of Hesse Lave revealed their strength and elzsticity with a distinctness beyond the reach of misapprehension. The rivdry between the one and the (Aber, bet w:en the Prince and the people, the ruler and the constitution, the llw arid the chief magistrate, having been criginated by incidents of a very simple ant conspicuous description, may be readily explained, and v, e dialbt not but that when explained, even those who are most enamoured with the dogmas of tyranny will acknowledge the atrocity of the attempt made by the Hessian ELECTOR to subvert the constitutional authority of his dominions, 1% . s i AO 411 dignity and the decision with which those acaous ,0,..n, ss ~ ere lept-lkil by th.- Hessian -,----_ po - julatinn. Like all arbitrary sovereigns, the Elector Of Hassig •,±aluus of the liberties of his people, ha s _ 11 iP 4 541. bit 6 elf in a pe cu li ar d egree j ealous of the 4 r trAilt,tyttist: rivileges o f th e P ar li ament. I Elected by I ,----,_ <:-/ 7), , tz: a u the Hessian multitude, the Parliament of that Elec torate has since the period of its organization in 1831 retained the exclusive privilege of voting the annual supplies to the Government, pre cisely as in the case of our own House of Commons. Against this supreme, or rather funda mental right, the ELECTOR has long betrayed a horror as complete as that of CHARLES I. of England. In order to gratify his hatred of the privilege, and, if possible, to bring about its ultimate dissipation, he has at length entered upon a course of proceeding as wild and 'Anse neate, as violent and, we believe, as disastrous, as that adopted by CHARLES X. of France. Having convoked the popular Assembly at as late a period in the year as possible, the Elector of HESSE caused his Ministerial advisers to submit to the Chamber the annual demand for supplies, refusing, at the same time, to lay before the Parliament the customary ac counts and estimates. Of course any vote such as was required by the Cabinet was indignantly withheld by the Assembly, and the result was soon discovered by its abrupt dissolution. So far the ELECTOR ventured to go, aided and abetted in his arbitrary decisions by his con genial servant, the Prime Minister HASS ENPFLUG• But they went further. The demand for supplies, rejected by the Chamber, was sub mitted to the Committee—that being a body which, according to the judicious contrivance of the constitution, is entrusted with Parliamentary func tions at all times between the dissolution and the re assembling of Parliament. The Committee showed itself worthy of exercising those Parliamentary functions ; it refused the vote of supplies as indignantly and resolutely as the Assembly. Thereupon, HassEereLeu, acting in accord ance with the arbitrary wishes of his master, proceeded boldly to extremities. On the sth of September he issued a declaratory ordinance for the collection of the taxes, commanding lrit ill direct and indirect imposts should be levied in the absence of any legal budget. This was followed on the 7th of September by another ordinance, placing the whole country in a state of siege. Since the publication of those despotic and illegal documents the Electorate has been subjected to military jurisdiction. All the institutions of the state, civil and military, ex cepting only the courts of justice, have been placed under the command of a - military dictator. Journals have been suppressed, placards torn from the walls, meetings prohibited. The whole land has groaned under the affliction of a sort of po litical interdict. Meanwhile the people (SI-Jesse have by their conduct proved themselves worthy of the liberties guaranteed to them by their constitution• The popular Committee, declaring itself "in perma nence," has brought to bear against the unpopular Minister the whole force of its constitutional opposition. They have already, in fact, gone so far as to decree his apprehension and impeachment; while the ordinances of the Court and the Cabinet have been formally declared illegal by a judgment of the chief civil court of the Electorate. Such is the suc cess of the constitutional party in Hesse, so complete is the political checkmate, that the obnoxious ELEC TOR, accompanied by the unpopular HASSENPELLG and several of his Ministerial colleagues, have aban doned the field to their adversaries, escaping from the strong hand of the law by a flight both precipitate and ignominious. Alluding to these occurrences, the Journal des Dibats observes, very justly and sententiously, that the popu lation, indignant at such a gratuitous violation of the National Charter, adopted, with a patience worthy of a better cause, as a means of crushing the treasonous enterprize, all the constitutional (and only the consti tutional) weapons of resistance. Without an insur• rectionary movement, without an outbreak of any kind whatever, the people have triumphed over their arbitrary ELECTOR, and have vindicated the merits of their libera' THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. A letter from Hamburgh of the 13th says :—We have this moment received important news from the theatre of war in Schleswig. Yesterday, the 12th, all the Holstein army having effected an advanced movement, made a general attack on all the line of the army of Denmark. The battle, like that of Itstedt, was very sanguinary, especially near Eckernfcerde, which was taken and retaken by the two armies, and which finally remained in the power of the Holsteinere, who established their head quarters there. The town has greatly suffered ; the Danish men-of-war stationed in the port fired broadsides; but, as the Holsteiners were able to place some large guns on a battery, they forced the ships to sheer off. The wounded were sent to Kiel. It has not yet been ascertained whether the Russian vessels, some of which were sta tioned in the port of Eekernfcerde, took part in the combat. The Danish camp, strongly en trenched before Eckenfeerde, was taken after three assaults by the army of Holstein, and was completely destroyed by means of fire. It is said that the town of Friederichstadt has also been set fire to. The fortified intrenchments of the Danes at Dane mark have also been carried by the bayonet ; the car nage must have been frightful. After these attacks, exe cuted with terrible fierceness, the Danish army, as we are told, was forced to beat in retreat on all the line ; but as this is the Holstein account, we must wait for confirmation of its truth:' Another letter, dated two in the afternoon, says—" VVe learn that, at break of day the battle recommenced between the two armies with renewed fury." A telegraphic dispatch of the same evening says—" General WILLISEN marched on Missunda, to force the passage of the Schley ; in the plain of Cosel he was attacked and driven back by the Danes ; he retired to this side of Eckernfcerde. The Holstein army evacuated Eekernicerde, and resumed the position it had occupied the day before." For some days past, the rumour of a military intervention on the part of England and Russia has become more and more credited. These two powers, in conjuncture with France, are determined to put an end to this long war. The Courts of Austria and Prussia, from the fear of compromising them selves in the eyes of Germany, where the cause of the revolution of the two Duchies becomes more and more popular every day, remain impassible, watch each other, and nothing indicates their determination to take either separately or collectively with their allies any vigorous and decisive measure. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The following article appears in the acknowledged organ of the Ministry, the Constitutionnel. It relates to the supposed consequences of the reconciliation of the two branches of the House of Bourbon on the prospects of the PRESIDENT, and, as seriously pointing out the policy which, under these altered circum stances, the PRESIDENT and his Ministers deem it advisable to pursue, it may be considered as of im portance. The Constitutionnel says— " In desiring the triumph of their principles, and pre• cisely to bring it about, the honest, intelligent, and mo derate men of the Legitimatist party feel that they ought not to act as revolutionists. Certainly, if they believed a restoration at present possible, they would attempt it; but if such an attempt appears to them impracticable and insensate, they will give the hand to the mainte nance, provisionally at least, of the President, because his fall would be the triumph of the terrorists. The moderation of the President, his religious and con servative principles, his devotedness t) order will, in the end, artliorate the monarchical question. This is what the reasonable, practical, honest Legitimatists perfectly understand. They would overthrow the President if they believed they would succeed him, but they will maintain him if, in overthrowing him, they see they will give him terrorism or even Orleanism for a successor. Their first suffrage is naturally for the Comte de Chambord, but the second is for Louis Napoleon. Such is the pri vate opinion of the most important and most practical men of the Legitimatist party. The hostile, separated, exclusive line of policy, which appears to have been po sitively resolved on at Wiesbaden, is subjected to the possibility of an immediate or very early success: but if the party cannot effect a Legitimatist restoration it will not throw itself into revolutionary agitation. This course, condemned in advance, and disavowed by the chiefs, will be left to the violent and vain men who are to be found in all parties. The death of King Louis Philippe was naturally destined to create, and has created, a new situation to the old Conservatives, com prised under the general name of Orleanists. The most important men of this party, the most moderate, the most practical, those who have conducted its affairs for the longest period, and with most eclat, consider, like the late King, that there is great utility as regards the future in a sincere union of the two branches of the House of Bourbon. But they feel shat nations are no longer transmitted by the private ar rangements of princes, and that the House of Bourbon can never, whatever may be done, be anything else than a distant port, in which France will have the privilege of voluntarily seeking shelter, if ever her repose and prosperity should require it. The authority which Louis Philippe exercised over his family was immense, and whatever may be the empire which is exercised by his memory, it is very difficult to believe that certain germs t f division formerly existing will not break forth. The men devoted to the arrangement of which the Duchess d'Orleans and the Count de Paris would form the basis, have naturally at present more em pire; and whatever be the reserve and the prudence of the young princes, the democratic penehans which one of them is supposed to entertain will assuredly be more strongly excited. Oa the other hand, the union of the two branches of the House of Bourbon, even if it were intimately established, would not the ""less cause profound divisions in the Conserva tive party. Public conscience revolts, in these days, against the transmission of a nation by means of endorse ments and stamped paper. France has the profound conviction that she belongs to herself, and that no one can dispose, or shall with impunity be allowed to dispose of her without her free consent. It is then an immense disadvantage for all the arrangements prepared, or in way of arrangement between the two branches, to have the air of being effected with the view of taking posses sion of the country. And besides can it be believed that if the two branches are not absolutely irreconcile able, certain political nun are so? It has been found impossible to cause the Orleanists to lice well together; can it be believed possible to cause Orleanists and Legi tim .vsts to do so? Is it in human nature to forget 20 years of fierce struggle, insult, calumny, and persecution? Our readers see then that a man must live in chimerical re gions to believe that the union of the two branches of the House of Bourbon, even if it were intimate and hn rnediste, would cause the union, much more difficult and much more important, of old parties, and would offer to France an early, serious, efficacious solution of the im mense problem laid down in the public conscience." It would appear from the contents of the Legiti matist journals that there are no " honest, intelligent moderate men," in the Constitutionnel sense of the phrase, among the journalists of that party, for, with one accord, without even the exception of the Union, they protest as vehemently as the most democratic of the Republican journals against any attempt to pro long the presidential powers of Louis NAPOLEON BONAPARTE, and call as loudly for a rigid investiga Lion into the constitution and aims of the Society o the 10th December. and enlightened constitution. Nevertheless, the danger to the state is very far indeed from having been alto gether avoided. Intervention is still imminent on the part of some other and more powerful princi pality. The ELECTOR may be brought back by the bayonets of his _allies, and thrust with his ob noxious policy upon the unwilling acceptance of the Hessian multitude. This calamity, be it observed, is rendered passible by the existing system of relation ship organized among the states of Germany—a system as detrimental to the interests, and as prejudicial to the liberties of each respective principality, as it is injurious to the cause, the glory, and the power of the whole Germanic Confederation. It is earnestly to be hoped that a new and powerful incentive may be given to the labours of the Central Diet by the late important struggle between the Hessians and their Government• We find the following in the Assemilie Nationale : " The three great Parliamentary clubs were founded during the last session. One which met at the Palais d'Orsay, another in the Rue de Rivoli, and the third at the Hotel Frascati. In c onsequence of the ideas of con ciliation expressed by the Count de Chambord at Wies baden, these three clubs are now united under the name of the Cercle du Droit National." Although the " fusion of the two branches of the Houses of Bourbon " is pompously announced in the Legitimatist journals, and the restoration of the reign of the parti-pretre, and a crusade against lib er ty, an d an intimate Russian alliance declared to be a necessary consequence, it does not appear certain that the said fusion has taken place. M. TIIIERS, who has shown much greater shrewdness and foresight than any of the other ex-Ministers of Louts PHILIPPE, is deci dedly opposed to any such fusion on any condi • tions, and the Duchess of ORLEANS, who has not yet signified formally her assent to this project of fusion, has been always hitherto guided by the advice of M. TRIERS. Consols Ditto Account Repeatedly as we have commented upon the shame less extravagance visible in our dockyards, we can not but avail ourselves of every opportunity which appears to illustrate yet more clearly the fact of this profligate and useless expenditure. Our pertinacity upon this subject is attributable to a painful sense of the energies, of the resources, of the wealth, and of the intelligence which are squandered about in mere experiments. A letter addressed to a morning Con temporary demonstrates in a rather novel and impres sive manner the nature of this enormous evil, proving more conspicuously than ever the necessity fur some wholesome and comprehensive supervision. "In the year 1830," says the anonymous writer, " I visited Portsmouth Dockyard. The Nep tune was then building—a magnificent first-rate —to carry 136 guns. I looked upon her with awe and veneration, as a type of our maritime superiority, destined to carry terror to our enemies, protection to our commerce, and to renew our ancient glory on the deep." So much for the first act in the Comedy of Errors relating to the Neptune. The curtain drops in the midst of the golden dreams of the spectator. A. considerable period is supposed to have elapsed be tween that time and its second rising, for we find the writer proceeding thus :—" Twenty years after wards I again visited Portsmouth Dockyard. I found my old acquaintance, the Neptune, in dock repair ing, though she had never been to sea. The scales fell from my eyes, and, with something akin to con tempt, I viewed her as one amongst the many means by which Ministerial candidates secure votes for the borough of Portsmouth—in plain words—a gross and gigantic bribe." A miserable lesson is taught by this reflection, such a lesson as it would be worth while for the electors to bear in mind, when taking into consideration the merits of a Ministerial candidate. " If," says the Writer of the letter, in conclusion, "I survive another twenty years, and am able to bobble once again through the dockyard, I expect to find my old ac quaintance, like myself, breaking up." The conjec ture is unhappily but too reasonable. Of this the nation has been already assured by a bitter experience. The Neptune, though a glaring, is anything but an isolated instance of such extravagance. Fur all the good that is derived from such product ions,our shipbuilders might as reasonably have been employed in constructing flj log machines on the principle of Mr. HENSON, or flying islands on the plan of Mr. GULLIVER. If such absurdi ties are permitted to repeat themselves, when can we rationally hope to witness either an efficient navy or a judicious retrenchment ?

The party proceeded to view the enormous gasometers, four in number, now being prepared for the supply of the City, and the several subordinate works, after wit ch they examined the conirecdious premises which it is intended to use for retorts, refining-houses, coal sheds, and other necessary appurtenances. The site is close by the Blackwell (branch) Railway to Bow, from which point it may be seen to advantage. It was stated upon the ground that the whole of the pipes for supplying the city of London are now laid, and that such supply might be expected in the course of a few days. Both the quantity required and the quality of the gas have teen tested, and the result has proved highly satisfactory. The directors retired, highly pleased with the statements made by the engineer and his officers, by whom the shareholders were assured that they would receive their supply of gas by the time s p ec ifi e d i n their contract, viz., the 29th inst. 19 93/4 - Carlisle Bt. 6s. 8d.... ..... & Ayr 50 ..... .

MORE PENNY SUBSCRIPTIONS.—A news-agent of this town has issued handbills, inviting parties to contribute to a penny subscription, the object of which is to raise a fund for erecting a statue in honour of Barclay and Perkins's drayraen I•-Liverpool kiail. THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 17, 1850. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 15,000 bales, of which 500 American were taken for export, and 7,000 American and 600 Surat on speculation. The market closed with animation at to id. advance in American. Other kinds were also td. per lb. dearer.—ln Railway Shares a good business was done at much higher rates. The letters by the American steamer refer very ge nerally to the cotton crop as a metier of absorbing in terest, and one is still puzzled, as is always the case, indeed, to arrive at a satis f actory con clusion. It is contended, among other things, that the arrival of the first bale of Cotton is no index of the aggregate yield, and this is probably true since there may be a little pride with the American grower, as with the English hop-planter, to produce the earliest specimen. Although we may allow, however, that the receipt of a few bales is not a fair criterion, we must assert that the fact is often established thereby that the crop is forward, and that usual!) further supplies rapidly follow. It is shown by figures that in the year 1840 the plant was in bloom on the 6th June, the first bale was received at New Orleans on the 7th of August, and a damaging frost occurred on the 16th October; the crop being 1,634.000 bales. In the year 1842 the plant bloomed on the 17th May, the first bale was received July 25, a severe trust occurred on the Ist of November, and the crop was 2,378,000 bales. In 1848 the first bale was re• ceived August 9, and the crop reached 2,728,000 bales. In 1849 the first bales reached August 7, and a frost oc curred after picking, the crop being 1,950,000 bales. In 1850 the plant was i❑ bloom June 10, and the first bale was received August 11, but the extent of the crop re mains for a future chronicler. At Amsterdam on Sunday there were extensive deal ings in Spanish Three per Cent. Bonds at higher prices. The ship arrivals from distant parts bring no intelli gence of general interest or of later date. The Committee of Mexican Bondholders have received ad vices from Vera Cruz, dated 13th ult., rid the United States, by the Europa, announcing the shipment of 40,559 dollars 7 cents by the Great Western, towards the payment of dividends. The estimate of the amount pending in Vera Cruz at that date for account of the bondholders was as follows: c. Pending on the 16th July last Approximate calculation of duties for July, 1850 16,400 0 Less amount coll e ct e d t o d ate 14 10 10 --- Pending on 13th August 139,208 32 It cannot fail to have attracted notice that the remit tances for the dividends have lately fallen considerably short of the amount required to pay the three per cent, per annum, which the bondholders are disposed to accept, and which, indeed, M. Falconnet will do doubt have been instructed to acquiesce in. So far this bears out the tabular statements given a month or two since under this head in illustration of the dimi nished number of vessels that had sailed for the Mexican ports, and accounts for the insufficiency of the import duties. At the same time we have to bear in mind that the Mexican Government promises an appropriation of other revenue, if the new arrangement proposed is carried out. One would be glad to learn when Colonel Facio expects some definite answer from his Govern ment as to the disposal of the amount in the Bank of England, for the holders of Mexican stock are doubly chagrined at the know ledge that there is money in hand, and that a mere technical difficulty and differences be tween the representative c f the Government and Messrs. Schneider prevents its distribution. The English Funds are barely so good as they were yesterday, but the only security open to public transfer at present being Consols, there is very little doing. The number of speculators present is now very small, as the shooting season allures them to the country. Exche quer-bills have been 645. is 675. premium, which is a shade better. Great uncertainty appears to exist among the time bargain dealers as to the future course of events. The prospect of the money market is all in favour of a rise, but Continental politics are unsettled. The quotations for Mexican Bonds have rallied to 30 and 301, and there is more life in them. Peruvian Four-end-a-Half per Cents. are worth 82i. Buenos Ayres Bonds have been 58kand Brazilian 92. Portu• geese Four per Cents. have realised 33i, and Spanish Five per Cents. 191. Belgian Fuur.and-a-Halt per Cents. have been 91k. Railway Shares have continued in great favour, and there is a further rise in most of them. Referring to the advance in Railway Shares, Messrs. John Railton and Sons, of Manchester, state that " since the 26th August we have again made an estimate of twenty three lines of unguarauteed railway stock, under the presumption of a purchase of one share in each on the 26th April, amounting in the whole to an outlay of 7331. 16s. 3d., and we find the result to be as follows-- namely, in one concern there is no variation in the mar ket value, on five there is a loss of Si. 2s. 6d., but a gain on sixteen, of 52/. 12s. 6d., making a further profit between the 26th of July and the 12th of Septem ber of 61. per cent., which added to that of 3/. 7t.t. 3d. per cent. gained between the 26th of April and the 26th of July, makes a total of a/. 7s. 3d. per cent. on the 12th of September, or 68/. 13s. 4d. on the whole adventure of the twenty-three slarev, or at the rate of 1811. 12s. 4d. per annum." This, upon 733/., is of course to be con sidered a very handsome return, and although it is hardly to be assumed that a proportionate rise would occur throughout the year, there are the dividends to be taken into account, and an averaging of investments is shown to be both safe and profitable.

W. Keen, /11. A , curate of St. Peter's, Derby, to the rectory of Egton, Yorkshire. A few days ago a boy f,ll overboard from a barge lying in the Grand Surrey Docks, near to the premises of Moore, one of the men employed by the company. The moment the alarm was gives, Moore darted out from his house, plunged into the water, and brought up the boy from under the barge in a state of complete insensibility. Moore's wife was:washing. and a tub of hot water being ready at the time, she placed the poor child in it, and, before professional assistance could be procured, bad the satisfaction to restore him in a few minutes to consciousness, and took him home to his parents next morning in perfect health. The boy was the fifth human being saved by Moore in the Surrey Docks, and the eighth he has saved during his own life by his in trepidity and coolness. The Lock Company presented him with a small gratuity, and instructed their secretary to com municate the particulars et the accident to the Royal Litulano kociety t ' GERMAN Y. Letters from Cassel, Electoral Hesse, of the 12th, state that on the previous day M. MULLER, the Com missary of Police, had gone to the offices of the New Gazette with some gendarmes, and had com mit some illegal acts. The publisher of the paper immediately informed the permanent Cow. mittee of the Assembly, and that body complained to the public prosecutor. This functionary, after examining the complaint found that it was well founded, _and caused MuLnaa, to be arrested. The military authorities had caused notifications respect ing the state of siege to be stuck up in several streets, but most of them were torn down. No proclamations had been stuck up in the villages near Cassel, which are occupied by Prussian troops. On the 12th the Supreme Court, almost unanimously, declared that the decree of the 4th September on the levying of the taxes, ought not to be carried into effect. On the same day the Elector and all the Ministers took to flight. 'She town remained perfectly tran quil. According to the Correspondent of Hainburgh the Hanoverian Ministry had re solved to send troops to the frontiers of Electoral Hesse, in compliance with the demand of the Hessian Government, and the Northern German Gazette says that five battalions had received orders to march. The Cologne Gazette announces that M. STRUVE, First Minister of Hanover, had in the Cabinet Coun cil opposed the sending of troops, but that his col leagues were of a different opinion, and that the Diet of Frankfort had ordered the Hanoverian troops to be sent. The same journal states, on authority of a letter from Berlin, that the Prti-sian Government hasta in ke t n he m E er e u ct r o e r s a t t o e. prevent any foreign interven tionln the second Chamber of the States of the Grand Duchy tavune trdi no proposedmnn e anm o nt f ad, thatlln o3t n e . oets the t eh laws,e Darmstadt, on the 13 th , LEONER taxesitsac groundtf,sss especially et o c u ia l had d li thatybe violated wbyi th refused serveestrpha t eel o c t tchtoeo dec r e es nGsttioli e alliance of the three Kings, the dissolution of the last Diet, the taking part in the Congress of Frankfort, and the dismissal of a great many pi ofessors without judgment. M. MULLER pro posed, and the Chamber unanimously voted thanks to the Permanent Committee of the States of Electoral Hesse, and to the judicial and administrative autho rities of the Electorate, for their resistance to the illegal and unconstitutional conduct of the Govern ment. The Austrian Observer of Vienna of the 9th ex presses great indignation at the outrage upon General HATNAu in London, and announces that the Austrian Ambassador at the Court of England has formally demanded that satisfaction may be given to his Government by bringing the offenders to trial. TURKEY. The asservatore Dalmato has advices from Albania up to the 3d. The Ottoman fleet, which was stationed at Gomenizza, and expected to proceed to the coast of Upper Albania, where preparations had been made to receive it with all due honours, has not advanced further into the Adriatic, but, on the contrary, left for Candia. According to the latest accounts from Hez govina, the Vizier AI.I PACHA RIiVANBEGOVICH, Pacha of that province, has also been invested with the Pachalik of Bosnia. Letters from Stagno Pic colo (Dalmatia), of the 24th ult., state that frequent shocks of earthquake had been felt ever since April last, without any damage resulting from them ; but that a most terrific shock was felt on the ]9tl), not only at Stagno, but throughout the territories of Imo tizza and Lissaz. It was accompanied by a loud de tonation ; several walls and some houses were ruined by the shock, and other damage was done in the forests, &c. On the following days more shocks were felt, which, however, proved harmless. ITALY. The Lombardo- Veneto contains the following letter, dated Rome, 3lst ult.:— "The so -much desirrd organic laws are always on the point of being published, but at the period fixed for their promulgation they continually 11 quire to be corrected and irnpioved. France is greatly annoyed at the procrastination of the Roman Government, and Austria is constantly preaching reform. The Pope, no doubt, with a view to please France, which does more than menace, since she is with drawing her troops battalion by battalion, and to propitiate Austria, has consented to remove Cardinal Antonelli fr om the direction of affairs. If it be true, as it is said, that Cardinal Lambruschini is to replace him in the post of Pro-Secretary of State of Foreign Affairs, Cardinal Marini will assume the departme n t o f the interior. The arrival here of the Sardinian Envoy produced a greater sensation than was expected. The Holy See is apprehensive of the confiscation of the clerical property in the subalpine kingdom. Cardinal Lambruschini leans towards constitutional ideas, According to ancient usage, every Catholic country has a protector in the Sacred College, and the Cardinal patronises Piedmont. The Court of Rome, which tamely yielded in its con test with the Spanish Government, owing to the vigour with which General Narvaea demanded the ratification of the sale of the property of the Church, will no doubt likewise yield its difference with Piedmont. Then will the accession of Cardinal Lam bruschini to the Ministry be quite natural. But it is to be feared that the French retrograde party will paralyse everything. We have here M. Veuillot, editor of the Paris Univers, who is listened to as an oracle, being regarded as the organ of Catholic France, which, everybody kn ows , i s not the case. " " The Pope," says the Roman Journal of the Gth inst., " in the interest of the Roman population, has thought proper to re-establish the tariff, which regulated the price and weight of bread according to the actual price of wheat. His Holi ness h as con sequently enjoined the Provisional Municipal Com mittee to restore the tariff instituted by Pius Vain 1800." The Giornale di Roma, of the 7th, publishes,' both in Latin and Italian, the letter addressed by the Archbishop and Bishops of the province of Bordeaux to the Archbishop of Turin, expressive of condolence for his first imprisonmen t. It b eard t h e date of the 29th (,f July, and is signed by the Archbishop of Bordeaux, the Bishops of La Rochelle, Perigueux, Angouleme, Agen, Lu9on, Poitiers, Limoges, and the ex-Bishop of Algiers. Letters from Bologna, of the 7th, state that the conversion of the old paper money i n to certificates of credit has produced a good effect on the money mar ket, and that the change has risen to only 7 per cent. discount. • The Tu=can Monitore of the 9th publishes the de crees by which the G rand Duk e o f T USCANY accepts the resignations of S i gnor CAPOQUAD R I, Minister of Grace and Justice, and of Signor MAZZEI, Minister of Public Worship; and names as their successors Senator LAMS and Counsellor BOLOGNA. The Italian papers generally have opened subscrip tions for the victims of the inundati on o f t h e prov i nce of Brescia. The prov incial council of Novara has voted that its share of the 21,000 f. allowed to the pro vinces for special expenses, be paid to Brescia. The provincial council of Genoa has voted 1,300 f., and that of Sarzana 500 f. for the same purpose. THE ATTACK ON MARSHAL HAYNAU.-A meet ing was held last night at the Geor ge T avern, George-street, Bankside, is celebration of the late attack on Marshal Haynau. It will be remembered that the " George" is the tavern in which the Marshal sought r e f uge f rom the at tack which was made upon h im. The meeting was to have been held in one of the rooms in the tavern, and in an ele vated position, close to the seat, provided for the chairman, the chair was exhibited in which it was stated Marshal Haynau had sat, and attached to it was the birch-broom with the remains of the handle which it is alleged was broken on the Marshal's back. These memorials of the late attack were viewed with much curiosity, and the dust-bin also attracted a good deal of observation. The room having been found too small for the meeting accommodation was provided in the skittle-ground. Mr. %V. Brown took the chair, and several speakers having addressed the meeting, a vote of thanks was unanimously given to Messrs, Barclay and Perkins, for their conduct towards their men who had been concerned in the Haynau affair. Three cheers were given for Kossuth, for Ben?, for Dembinsky, and for the Hungarian and Polish refugees, and three groans for Haynau. HAYNAU'S RETREAT ONCE BISHOP THE MUR DERER'S DOG - DEN.--Sir,-it is a singular fact that the apartment at the George, Bankside, in which Haynaa took refuge, should at cne time have been used as a den for the exhibition of Bishop the Busker's dog. The beast was of a most ferocious nature —so much so, that it was deemed neces sary to keep him constantly muzzled. It was reported that the animal had been trained to keep watch over the dead bodies of the Burker's victims at Bishop's abode, Nova Scotia Gardens. The tenant of the George at that period, about fifteen years ago, procured the brute and some of the instru ments used by the miscreants in destroy ing the poor Italian boy and others for the object of exhibiting them, and thereby attracting custom to his house. The landlord's name was Gessling. He had previously kept the Bird-cage, near Nova Scotia Gardens, and Bishop was known to him as a cus tomer.—l am, &c., FRANCIS FAGAN, 20, Houghton-street Clement's-inn. , DANGER OP RESEMBLING GENERAL HAYNAU - The Journal du Havre says—. A certain degres of agitation was remarked yesterday morning at the railway station on the departure of the eleven o'clock train. It was rumoured in the crowd that General Haynau was about to proceed to Paris by the train. Every eye was directed to an elderly man, of a military look, very corpulent, and with stern fea tures ornamented with immense black moustaches. It is Haynau,' people murmured; it is the Austrian butcher; it is the man who flogged women I' Fortunately some one was present who was able to state that the person in ques tion was a Mexican General, M. Santa Cruz, who has been at Havre for some days. He cannot have been much flat tered at being taken for Haynau, and exposed on the part of the population of Graville to an ovation, like that which the ' pacificator' of Hungary obtained in the brewhouse at Bank side. It will be •ome oangeroes for persons having any re semblance to the too celebrated Austrian General to wear long moustaches. Yesterday, for example, a gentleman going from Caei to Havre by the Neustrie steamer, was sup posed to be Haynau, and was very nearly subjected to dis agreeable demonstrations." SUDDEN DEATH OF MR. WARREN, OF THE IN SOLVENT DEBI-oils' COURT.—On Saturday afternoon Mr. Warren, one or the ushers f the Insolvent Debtors' Court, expired suddenly at his residence in Walcot-place. Ile had partaken of dinner, and died in his chair. He was one of the collectors in Lambeth parish. DEFICIENCY IN THE CIDER CROPS —SO great is the deficiency in the orchard produce that one farmer within two miles of Barnstaple, who last year made 150 hogsheads of cider, will not this year make more than 10. We are in formed, too, that the deficiency, if not so great, Is general throughout the north of Devon. —Exeter Gazette. 11N, 3,,,, 8234 34 1 4 - 8334 19% 37% MARKET NE WS.—( THIS DAY)' itrztz SMITIIFIELD.-141i-adow liay, 2/ 83 to 31 15s; Cluoro 31 Os to 4/ 10 s; an d Straw, 3s to 11 8 per losa, Supply tolerably good, and trade dull.
