LONDON, to law, their " lives an'i properties" are safe, but the state of the provioces %bleb reipuin under the do minion of the Prince is rendered infinitely worse• Unable or unwilling to curtail bid expenses, the Prince collects an equal amount of revenue from a di minished area, and thus the sufferings of his unfortu nate subjects are greatly increased. It can never be too often repeated, that it is as much our bounden duty, as protectors of a native state, to protect the in habitants from the oppression of the Princes, as it is to protect the Princes from an insurrection of the inhabitants, and therefore in all cases like this of the NIZAM, in which an annexation of territory may be thought necessary, the invariable rule should be—all or none. It was our pleasing duty, not long since, to direct the attention of our readers to the banquet given by the authorities of Derby to Mr. PaxToe, and we have now, with a like feeling of gratification, to re cord a similar honour paid to another of our emi nent scientific country men, Mr. ROBERT STEPHEN SON. Pew men, if any, at the present day are more worthy of a marked tribute of esteem and respect than that distirguisbed engineer, wbo has so honour ably earned his high position among the notabilities of the age. The Menai Suspension-bridge has long been one of the " lions " of the British Isles, but the erection of its marvellous neighbour is a far more extraordinary specimen of engineering genius. The tubular iron bridge is, perhaps, the most as tonishing production of human skill with which we are acquainted, immortalising the name of ROBERT STEPHENSON in the annals of civilization. Not that he was undistinguished previously in the world of practical science, for he had long been favourably known in connexion with his eminent father ever since the earliest efforts of that energetically-minded man to adapt steam locomotion to railways. The seed sown by the elder STEPHENSON has borne a glorious fruit. It was his unwearying perseverance, bis clear headed determination, which reduced into practical operation that union of power and speed, the deve lopment of which, although now an object of daily familiarity to millions, was some twenty years ago regarded as all but visionary. He lived' however, to see his pregnostications trium phantly verified in a revolution in the means and rapidity of transit which fully carried out the con - ' ceptions of his prescient ingenuity. And it is no flat tery to the son to say that he has fully inherited the vigour and lucidity of intellect of the sire. It must have indeed been a proud day for ROBERT STEPHENSON when the completion of his gigantic task was solemnly celebrated. No felicitations of a coterie—no glorifications of a political party—no lau dations of a religious sect—but a gathering, represen tative of a universal spirit of honourable homage to a master-mind, did him due honour. The neighbour ing nobility and gentry were, of course, the most numerous on the occasion, but guests were as sembled from various parts, among whom we find the distinguished name of JOSEPH PAXTON. The guest of the evening spoke modestly of the great work he had completed, hastening to share the palm of merit with a friendly and valued assistant' " whose excellent work was well known in all quarters where engineering skill could be appreciated." We have received no detailed report of the speeches made by the several orators at the banquet, but they must needs have been, on such occasion, inspired by a congenial tone, where the workman and the work were so commanding in their worth. The most colossal task ever presented to modern engineer was successfully achieved in their immediate neighbour hood, and the man to whom that triumph of science was due sat there, their honoured guest. The active participators in the tribute cannot but have expe rienced sentiments of generous exultation at being the organs of that applause and reverence of merit which inspires every rational man of the community on the consummation of the unparalleled labours of the Prince of Engineers. A somewhat detailed account of the difficulties necessary to be overcome, and the application of successful agencies to the completion of the Britannia Tubular Bridge, will be found in another part of our impression, subjoined to a brief account of the ban quet at Bangor yesterday evening. We shall nor, therefore, enter here into a consideration of the works which have now been happily completed ; but we would not quit the subject of Mr. ROBERT STEPHENSON'S deserved triumph without adverting to a matter which has been very appropriately brought upon the lapis by a morning contemporary. dEOUGE STEPHENSON died in August, 1848, and in 4bout eighteen months afterwards a committee was appointed, at the annual meeting of the Mechanical Eggint!ers of Birmingham, to take measures to pay none lasting tribute to his memory. Mr. GLYN was requested by the committee to becornt. treasurer to the subscribed funds, and in D-cember, 1850, the printed list presented subscriptions to the 6 ' GEORGE 3TF.PHENSoN Memorial" to the amount of 2.000/ fne list, we are informed, embraces the names of .ome of our most distinguished noblemen, men of science, and capitalists; but it also enumerates sub ,cribers of less amounts infinitely more interesting. mere is a subscription of 321. from " 116 clerks and workmen, employed by the Patent Shaft Company, Wednesbury ; " one of 17/ from " 317 overlookers and workmen, ,employed by Mr. CARDUS, contractor on the London and North- Western Railway ;" one of 11. 7s. from " forty -eight ballast men on London and North Western Rail way ;" one of 101 3s. 6i. from "342 overloukers and workmen employed by Mr. BRASSEY, contractor on the Buckinghamshire Railway ;'' one of 31. ss, from " men on the North British Railway, Edinburgh ;" and others of a similar description. The matter since then seems, unaccountably, to have dropped—unaccountably, because the name and merits of the object of the proposed memorial are still fresh in the minds of man, and there is no ex istence either of feelings of envy on the part of scien tific men, or of conscious. neglect of desert during the lifetime of its possessor, on the part of the public, Co intervene between the initiation and the carrying out of the proposition. It is not that the distinguished dead needs the blazoned marble or the sculptured urn, for, as has well been said, " our railway system is his monument," a monument More glorious than the ever-during pile of CHEOPS or the towering shrine of WREN. But we trust, for the national credit, that a great man shall not be permitted to remain without the visible appreciation of national gratitude; nor can there be a more just and seasonable opportunity for re viving the prosecution of this scheme than at a ;mo ment when the son and associate of its venerated object has brought to a conclusion an imperishable memorial of hereditary genius and benefaction. SAILoRe HOMB la PLYMOUTH.—The first steps have been taken for the formation of a sailor's home in Ply mouth, or Devonport, or both. During the recent official visit of the Admiralty, at Devonport, the subject was talked about, and the opinion of their Lordships on the propriety of forming such an establisbmen: taken. The Lords of the Ad miralty were severally i leased to express their approbation of a proposal for a Sailors' Home; and, further, to promise liberal subscripti-ns towards the funds for its ereetion and establishment. The steward of the manor, E. St. Aubyn, Esq., has promised, on the part of the trustees of the marnir, a free site, moat eligibly situated near St. wary 's Church, in James -street, and, also, near the Dockyard Gates. Subse quently a number of naval officers and gentlemen have, on two occasions, met Captain Hall, R.N., who has visited this port for the purpose of promoting this most excellent ob ject, to arrange upon the course to be taken, and sume ex tremely liberal oilers of money have been made. It is, therefore, expe cte d, th at t h e Bowe will be forthwith de cided upon ; and that in the lapse of a week or two it will be iu the course of erection. GECAT NORTHERPL—With the view to prevent ac cidents in the tunnels on this line, it appears that under.. ground telegraphs are now being laid through the several tunnels on this railway, so as to unable the man stationed at one end to coinmunicate with the man at the other end, when a train goes in or conies out of the tunnel. It is intended that no second train shall be allowed, under any circum stances, to enter a tunnel until u communication is made that the first train has passed out. On Saturday, at the Welwyn tunnel, one of- Mr. Henley's magrieto.electric instruments, which are to be used, was connected at each end, and the first ti i a l on this line was made by the patentee and kr. Hitchins in the presence of some 01 the rat way officials, and Mr. Dub son, front Mr. Cubitt's, the engine r. The trial was re ported as most satisfactory. The great features in Mr. Hen ley's instrument are stated to bet in working tnat nobatt o e r ry der is , r a required, no attention necessary to keep it its action is always certain. Lord and Lady Brougham are still at Brougham I Hall, where it is understood his. Lordship will remain over the ensuing winter. His Lordship keeps little or no corn. pang, but there is an apparent improvement in his health. Bia GEonGs GREY.—The Eight Hon. Baronet, accompanied by his lady and son, arrived at Dundee on Friday forenoon by the Li g htning Government steamer, which lett H u tt on W ednes d ay even i n g. They left early on Monday mo r ni ng . The Right Hon.

At present he intends coasting as far as Orkney, wh'nce it is probable he may proceed to Norway ; in this, however, he u9t ClEided.""AiriladidVeiliXr• _~~ijl- ' } LONDON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 28. 1851 As had been for some time past anticipated by all persons who have been in the habit of paying atten tion to the affairs of our Indian empire, the anarchi cal state of the dominions of the NIZAM, and his in ability, or rather unwillingness, to make any arrange ment for the payment of the debt due to the East India Company, have compelled the GOVERNOR.. GENERAL to have recourse to coercion, in order to secure the liquidation of the just claims of the British Government. A letter, couched in very de cided langusge, and setting forth the causes of complaint which the British Government had against the NIZAM, was addressed to that Prince by the Marquis of DALHOUSIE. In that letter the Nable Marquis represents to his Highness the large debt due from his Highness to the British Government, a debt which his Highness was annually increasing without adopting any ar rangements for its liquidation, and the necessity for contracting which had been originally occasioned by his wasteful, extravagant, and unnecessary expendi ture in maintaining a large and useless body of troops, whose turbulence was a source of danger and miser y to his subjects, and the maintenance Lf which was at best superfluous, seeing that his dominions were entirely free from the danger of invasion, inasmuch as they are surrounded "as by a rampart" by the dominions of the British. The GOVERNOR-GENERAL then pro ceeds to recommend that these troops, who are his but in name, and who plunder his people and insult his servants, should be at once disbanded, and every as sistance is proffered to his Highness to carry this recommendation into effect; the appointment as Minister of some intelligent person capable of re storing order both in the State and the finances is recommended, and with regard to the debt and the contingent the GOVERNOR- GENERAL declares that there remains but one resource to secure their liquidation, and that is to take territory, which the British Government has determined to do unless the money be paid. Some of the Indian newswriters express their regret at the strong language in which this letter is couched ; we confess we do not share in their sentiments. The NIzAM has solely by his own unbounded extravagance brought the greatest misery upon his subjects—he has pillaged them for years in order to fill his own private coffers—he is immensely rich, whilst they are starv ing, and the result shows that he was alt along perfectly able to liquidate his debt to the British from his own private resources. It is not to such a man as this that any leniency should be shown ; it is true we are by treaty bound to protect him against foreign aggression and against domestic insurrection, but we are equally bound in this, as well as in every other similar instance, to protect the subjects of these Princes from injustice, tyranny. and onression ; and while on the one hand we gua rantee to the Prince his throne as against insurgents we on the other guarantee to his subjects that we will never permit him to give them just causes for rising in insurrection. Immediately on the receipt o this letter the Niz Ykkt appointed as D - wan Sun/kJ-oat,. NIOOLK, who had ben formerly a Minister, am! during whose Ministry the state of the Niz ste. dominions had been most prosperous. On the ap pointtnent of this Minister his first act was to enter into negotiations wHa the British Resident, for th , - purpose of gainiag time, as the GOVERNOR GENERAL had given orders that if the money were not paid by the 15th July certain districts of the :N.7izam's dominions were to be at once entered on by the British troops. Tin_ British Resident having faith in the honesty and the abilities of the new Minister, granted him an exten sion of time, and he at once proceeded to make ar rangements for meeting the demands of the GOVERNOR- GENERAL; the disruption of these arrangements was. we are informed by the Hyderabad correspondent of the Bombay Telegraph, " momentarily threatened through the pigheadedness of the NIZAM. He threw obstructions innumerable in the path of his Minister; his caprices and vacillations occasioned the withdrawal of confidence and of credit in the money market, se riously injuring the measures the Minister had in contemplation for the accomplishment of that great one which was to liberate his master from the pressure of that incubus which would, ere long, have destroyed his vitality. It was only on the 15th that the NIZAM doggedly re fused a sum of about twenty lacs to his Minister, to complete the lather's promise of the early payment of forty ies. His powers of persuasion, or modus operandi of working on his fears, must have been very extraordinary, for on the 16th he waited on the Resident with a document, amply authenticated by his master, pledging himself to the immediate pay ment of twenty-two lacs, thus completing forty, and with the hopeful prospect of liquidating the whole debt before the end of October next. Then the great difficulty to be obviated will be the regular future payment of the contingent. For this purpose the Minister has appropriated districts, the revenues of which yield thirty-six lacs per annum, with which his master has promised not to interfere, much less to divert." The arrangem e nts thus en tered into cannot be regarded as finally completed until they shall have received the confirmation of the GOVERNOR-GrENERAL but whether they receive that confirmation or not, one thing is abundantly evi dent, that the plea of inability so frequently put in by the NIZ&M, as en excuse for the non-pytnent of his deb', is a mere groundless pretext, for we find that when close pressed he finds the money. Another correspondent of the same paper, wh o writes from Hyderabad on the 19'b o ' Jul y , says— " I hear th at Captain DAVIDSON,. the Assist ant- R-si dent,-say s forty lacs of rupres have been already paid by the NizAst, and the balance will certainly be paid by the end ut October. The money is to come partly from the contributions of the NIZAM'S wealthy A sneers and suljects, and partly from his own coffers. General FRASER seems now to be quite happy. The saved, end it s f uture sa l va ti on country for a tinge is depends on the, degree of proper interference, here after tying up the NIzAM'S hands and insisting upon extensive retrenchment." The NIZAM has shown himself not only incompe tent, but dishonest, and therefore we trust that hence forth there will be no hesitation in exercising such a control over him as shall prevent him from plunder. ing and tyrannizing over his subjects. In one respect, and in one respect only, could we have wished that the conduct of the Marquis of DALHOUSIE had been different.

'IIIE 14111 - CNC 11 REPUBLIC:. We have received the Pari, journals of yesterday. The National has the following on the subject of the trials at Lyons:— "For a year the royalist journals have been exhaust - ing all the forms of appeal to terror with respect to the Lyons plot. Society, it was said, hed escape td from an immerse peril ; a formidable conspiracy, embracing all France, had been discovered ; b ut, thanks to the vigilance of all Bonapartist agfq its, that gigantic enterprise had failed, and the chiefs, who were about to give the signal for combat, had been arrested at the moment when they were preparing to give the signal for acti on . F o r at, year the democratic press never ceased an instant to call for the trial of the prisoners, in order that the country might be enlightened as to the truth of this secret agitation, no detail of which had transpired ;amongst the populations, so terribly menaced. At laat, after the accused had been dragged from prison to prison for twelve months, after having been brought .50, nay 100, leagues to Lyons ; after a great numbs r were set at liberty us innocent, 38 persons were brought before an exceptional court, and of that number the greatest part were strangers to the city of Lyons, and even to toe department of the Rhone itself. From the very beginning of the proceedings, that phantas magoria of plot, of insurrection, pillage, and incer. diarism—that red spectre, called into existence to terrify timid minds, vanished before the lighc of dis cussion. We do not speak here in the interest of the accused ; they are assisted by defenders who have no need of our support. Bu we affirm, alter having examined the docuineres, that all these rumours of civil war existed only in some diseased imaginations. Undoubtedly the testimony given has proved one thing—that amongst the rural populations there exists considerable agitation ; the menaces of the royalist press against the Republic, the unconstitu tional designs attributed by imprudent friends to M. BONAPARTE, the dismissal of Republican function aries, the dissolution of national guards, the impunity of the royalist proceedings, all the rumours of attacks on the Constitution, had deeply moved the country. So, without there being any need of conspiracies, or illicit associations, a spontaneous sentiment of resist ance to all counter revolutionary projects had seized on men's minds. But, as to plots or illegal machi nations, or to those plans of anti-social organization, with which the royalist press has filled its columns, all that has disappeared when proofs were called for." Several of the Councils General have passed re solutions in favour of a revision of the Constitution. The animosity between the B mapartists and the Orleanists is every day increasing in iutensity. Tne Constitutionnel publishes a vehement and bitter attack on the Orleanists, The last drawing of the Lyors Lottery took place on Monday. The great priz-, of a service of pla!e, valued at 100,0001, has been pined by No. 658 302.

CITY. TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti mated at 8,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were taken for export, and 1,000 on speculation. The sales comprise-d about 6,.500 American, 300 Pernarn and Ms ruhdm at sid. to 6 1., 200 Egyptian at 54(1. to Bd., 800 Surat at 3d. to 4id., and 200 Sea Island at 100. to Is. Oil per lb. Tire market closed firmly.—The Share Market was better, and a fair business was dune at im proved prices. The ;ix weeks' average price of Wheat is 41s. 9d. per quarter. As we yesterday anticipated, the result of the negotia tions for assisting one or two hoases that were tempo racily inconvenienced by having the paper of suspender firma thrown back upon them, have resulted success fully, and a very stringent examination of the ba lance-sheets and accounts having shown that there is a good surplus, assistance has been received from one or two joint stock banks and discount establishments which are interested. It would be idle to assert, however tranquil may be present appearances that more s'oppages will not occur. We feel satisfied tf , at there will be several, and it is only because we do not desire to anticipate evil, that we refrain from mention ing the particular branches in which they may be locked for. An attentive observer and experienced man of business will not at least fail to perceive that all who have largely speculated in shares must have sus• tained heavy losses, and be inconvenienced accordingly. The shareholders of the Northern Counties Union Rai:way have held a meeting to •day, and received a most sisti-fa,ctery report from the directors. In the en suing Parliament a Bill will be applied fur to enable the company to abandod the greater part of the line, and construct a small portion, which will prove re munerative, and which, in tact, there are two or three companies willing to lease. As to the expense of ap plying f.:r the Bill, two-thirds thereof is guaranteed by other companies. The speculators for a fall have been rather active in the Stock Market, and there is an impression that other fsilures may occur to give them an advantage in acting upon th- fears of the timid. Consols have been reduced from 96ii to 96. The New Three-and-a Quarter per Cents. nave been 981 to 98k. Bank Stuck has been firm at 2151. Exch , quer bills are 46:4. to 495, and India Bonds 535. to 565. prem.um. Foreign Securities have been heavy in sympathy with Consols. Mexican have bean 281 to Braz I Stock is a° 92.

The Vienna Gazette of the 24 h contains a decree of the EMPEROR, dissolving the national guard of the empire. Their arms are to be delivered up to the depots from which they were taken, and those which have been purchased by the National Guards them selves are also to be given up, for which they will receive an indemnity. The burgher guard and chasseurs will be maintained in localities where they exist, in virtue of particular concessions or statutes, but these statutes are to undergo revision. As to such of these corps as have been momentarily dis solved, his MAJESTY reserves to himself to decide whether there are good grounds for their being re established. The Austrian police have received orders to arrest every person who does not move his hat to the EM PEROR; and orders have been issued to the hatmakers not to sell revolutionary hats. The EMPEROR, in causing these orders to be issued, is only acting up to he traditions of his family.

(THIS DAY.) Mr. John Bowater, of Linrnet, iunkeeper, was indicted for a nui,ance. The prosecution, promottd by one of the defendant's neighbours. was founded on the circumstance that a certain angle or recess, in the front rai ge of the def-n -dant's premises, close upon the footway of the High street, and near the premises of the prosecutor, was ren dered a serious annoyance to the neighbourhood generally by the passers-by. On the part of Mr. Bowater, who was defended by Mr. Kingdom, it was contended that the defendant vi as nut culpable ; he hod nut built the recess complained of for the purpo-e to which sumo persons against his will converted it, and he had no means of preventing the nuisance. _ _ _ After much discussion between Mr. Parry, for the prosecutor. and Mr. Kingdom, it was finally arranged that Mr. Bowater should place two or three boards across the corner at buck distances and to such a height as would exclude people from the place.
