WETD W.N.W.—dull, cloudy weather. betithlit LONDON, SATURDAY, AUGUST 31, 1850. Having visited the imperial city of Germany, and declaimed to their entire satisfaction in St. Paul's Church at Frankfort, we presume that the delegates of the Peace Association are now, on their return home.- wards, thoroughly satisfied with themselves and their enterprise. Of course they imagine they have done yeoman's service in the advancement of the arbitra tion movement. War henceforth is to be repudiated by the people of Europe as an abomination. Blood shed is to be a grim and ghastly tale of the bygone centuries. The lamb is to lie down with the lion, and the kid with- the hippopotamus. We wonder,. as so many have already wondered before us, and as so many will wonder after us, we wonder with all the - wonder that is possible in an age of wonders—What next ! Talk of CERVANTES having extinguished knight-errantry with Don Quixote! Talk of BUTLER having crushed fanati cism under the heel of Sir Hudibras ! Talk of RABELAIS having quashed extravagance of aspiration with his truthful history of Gargantua and Pante gruel ! The pyramids shaken down by a peal of laughter would be a notion none the less ridiculous. Why the hero of La Mancha never perpetrated such ab surdities as these redoubtable champions of humanity have been parading in the face of Christendom, like any mountebank upon his platform, aided by an Ojibbeway nondescript in lieu of a jack-pudding. After this we need no assurance whatever that other hobbies may be ridden besides the memorable Rosinaate. Here are men so blinded by their pleasant dreams of impracticability, that, like the child in the nursery song, they are crying to have the moon for a plaything. The aspirants for Utopia were nothing to them in credulity— neither were the believers in beanie, nor the worship pers of the gods of Atalanta, nor those who sighed after the flying island of LEMUEL GULLIVER. It is unquestionably true, of course, that now-a-days no one entertains any intention of going in search of El Dorado, of hunting up the reputed haunts of P E ESTER JOHN, or of advertising in the newspapers for the wandering AHASUERUS. Yet, while no indi viduals are given to such ridiculous practices, there are those still in existence who indulge themselves in undertakings quite as preposterous as the roscicrucian experiments in quest of the elixir vzte, or the alchemical search after the aurum potalnle. Even while the soil of Europe is still heaving with the convulsions of a recent revolution, while the smoke of bombardment has scarcely floated away from the principal cities of the Continent, from Paris saved from Terrorism by CAVAIGNAC, from Vienna battered into ruins by WINDISCHGRATZ, from Milan invested by the forces of RADETZKY, from Buda stormed by the heroic patr:ots under GoRGEY, from Rome Wien at the point of the bayonet by OUDINOT, from Naples pillaged by the lazzaroni of FERDINAND, from Mes sina rased to its very foundations by FILANGIERI, while the noise of battle is still resounding loudly on the southern shores of the Baltic, and the valiant Danes are;repelling the invaders beyond the boundaries of Schleswig, men are found so frivolous in judg ment and so dull in comprehension as to talk of " putting down" all idea of future conflicts! What renders their proceedings still more ludicrous to those who don't happen to be bitten by the phobia of arbi tration, is the circumstance of such men as General HAYNAU, as M. GIRARDIN, and as Mr. COBDEN, being among the most conspicuous persons present on the recent occasion of their re-assembling at Frank fort. General Harseau, the desolator of Hungary ! M. GIRARDIN, the duellist I Mr. COBDEN, the defier of Russia, and the threatener of the police to one of his London correspondent!, ! Nothing, in short, could exceed the inappropriateness of the whole of the late demonstration. The rendezvous was the very city where only a few months before the artillery was brought out to clear the streets from insurrection. That city, moreover, is the metropolis of a nation ripe, from one extremity to the other, at any moment for an outbreak into the bloodiest revolution. Then the military chieftain, whom we have already mentioned as having appeared in St. Paul's Church during the progress of the three days' declamation, was perhaps the most villanous hero that could have been decoyed into that dovecot, as a token that war now-a-days is more san guinary, more cruel, more horrible, and irrepressible in every way than it has ever been hitherto. His presence there, reeking from the shambles of Austrian vengeance, was as though the bril liant periods of the orators of peace were responded to by the laugh of a hyena. Never was the dream of a visionary more abruptly or more painfully dissipated than that of the ad vocates of arbitration, when IIAYNAU walked into the very midst of their paeific conclave. After the entrance of this infamous soldier into the council of the Peace Association, nothing remains to be said or written in disproof of the practicability of its principles. The Commissioners for the Sale of Encumbered Estates in Ireland, having completed the first year of their labours, have published an authentic account of their progress during that period. When it is con sidered that the Act (12 and 13 Vic., cap. 77) under which they were appointed only received the Royal assent on the 28th of July, and that the new Commissioners held their first meeting on the 28th of August, the amount of busines' transacted in the interval will appear as extraordinary to those accus tomed to the long and lingering Iroceedings in Chan cery, as the journey of the present day by express train, to the dilatory and tedious transit by the lumbering waggon or the heavy day coach of the_ last century. Rapidity is now the order of the day. Everything must be quickly decided, and right glad are we to find that the spirit of the age has led to the acceleration of legal procedure. _ _ It is not by the value of the property disposed of that the labours of the Commissioners are to be appreciated. The gross total produced by the sales from the 211 t of January, on which day the first lot was submitted to public competition, to the 31st July, up to which time the return is made, was 541,253/. 163. 61, an amount not exceeding, probably not equalling, that realised during a similar period by Messrs. DANIEL SMITH and Son, at the Mart, Witerloo-place, Pall-mall, or by one only of our many eminent estate-agents. This may not be regarded as a very extensive change of property in Ireland, par ticularly when the embarrassed condition of many landowners in that country is taken into considera tion, and the fact that the new tribunal, from the superior advantages it is enabled to offer to purchasers, in the shape of a clear Parliamentary title, with a new root, a short conveyance, and a settlement of all doubtful questions with the occupiers and tenants, which, under other circumstances, might possibly lead to expensive and vexaticu3 litigation, has practically superseded all other modes by which real property is di , posed of in that country. But the industry and efficiency of the Commissioners will be better understood when the detailed account of all they have got through during the twelve months is taken into consideration. As we have already stated, the three gentlemen who had been carefully selected fur these arduous and important duties met, for the first time, on the 28th of August. Their earliest, and by no means least, difficult task was to frame rules for the regula tion of the practice in their court. This onerous undertaking was accomplished in less than three weeks (20 days), and, on the 18th of September, the new general rules, eighty-five in num ber, together with a body of forms, and directions for " facilitating proceedings under the statute," the whole forming a complete and well considered code of procedure under the new tribunal, was submitted to the Irish Privy Council for appro bation. The members of this body did not exhibit quite as much activity as the Commissioners. They took a full month to consider what bad been pre pared in less than three weeks, and their final sanction was not given to the general rules until the 17th of October. r On the 25th October the Court was first opened for the dispatch of public business, and during the re mainder of that month 17 petitions were filed. From that time to the 31st July 1,085 petitions have, been presented, of which no less than 997 were ad judicated on, 105 being dismissed ; so that on the 31st July there only remained standing over 88 case?, of which 82 were filed within that very month. The petitions in 177 cases had been presented by the owners for the sale of estates producing a gross rental of 189,9441. ss. 2J., and encumbered to, the extent of 3,028,5561. 13e. 41d., or rather more than one quarter of the gross rental, and less that one quarter of the encumbrances brought under the' jurisdiction of the Court. This fact of the owners taking the initiative in so many cases sufficiently proves that so great a terror is not enter tained by the landlord class of the "confiscation" and " sacrifices" that were said to be of daily occurrence, as asserted by some of the opponents of the ne w law. The total number of orders made was 2,789, of which 938 were conditional orders for sale, 666 abso lute orders for sale, and 1,185 miscellaneous orders. This was "independently of numerous orders daily made by the Commissioners is chambers." The annual rental of all the properties comprised in the petitions is 665,4701.185. 7d, and the gross total of encumbrances as specified in the petitions is 12,400,3481. 63. lid. It will therefore be seen, that if even the very moderate sum of 1 per cent. be set aside for the costs of the sale and of the entire proceedings, it will require the property to bring on an average from 18 to 19 years' purchase to pay the encumbrances without leaving a shilling for the former proprietors. As many, how ever, will exhibit considerable deficiencies, it is to be hoped that there will be numerous cases in which handsome balances will remain for the use of the inheritors. There have been already 87 different estates sold in 257 lots. Receivers had been appointed over fifty-four of these estates, so that they had passed from the control of the inheritor to the hands of the worst possible landlords—the C Jurt of Chancery or Equity Exchequer; and in twelve cases only were proceedings not pending for a sale in one or other of these courts. There were altogether 64 . 802 A. 3a. 15r. sold, of which 50,793 A. Oa. 12s'. were held in fee simple or fee farm, 12,420 A. 3a. 35r. for lives re newable for ever, and 1,585 A. 2a. SP. for other leases for long terms. The total produce of the sales was, as we have already stated, 541,2531. 16s. 61, of which 22,8051. was obtained for house property in Dublin, Colic, Limerick, or Belfast, and the re- mainder by the average aforesaid, or on the average of rather less than 81. per acre for the lands.' Already the distribution of the proceeds has been commenced, and it was anticipated that nearly 200,0001. would have been allocated by the 20th of this month, and 200,0001. more in November. This is, inched) astonishing progress, and shows how greatly the nation is indebted to Sir Joux ROMILLY for his bold and vigorous attempt to overcome the monster grievance of the 191 century. THE PARLIAMENTARY SUNDAY.—DUBLIN, FRI. DAY.—Oilicial orders arrived yesterday rescinding the foolish and mischievous rule for suspending postal communication during.two days in the week.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The accounts of the reception of the PRESIDENT on his arrival in Paris are contradictory ; we subjoin two ; the first is from the officially recognised organ of the Elys6e, the Constitutionnel, the other from the Republique : The Constitutionnel gives the following account of the reception of the President of the Republic on his return to Paris :—" Louis Napoleon returned to Paris last evening. He left Epernay at a quarter past six, and at a quarter past eight was at the station of the Stras burg Railway. The Minister of the Interior, the Mini ster of Justice, the Minister of Public Instruction, and General Changarnier waited for him at the station from seven o'clock. General Changarnier and the Ministers warmly embraced the President when he alighted from the carriage. Some detachments of infantry were placed at the corners of the streets which lead to the station to prevent the crowd from invading it. When the President appeared on the square the troops uttered energetically the cry of 'Vive Napoleon !' iu which the greater part of the population took part. Along the Boulevards from seven o'clock in the evening unusual agitation and a constantly increasing crowd were observed. Although the circulation of vehicles was not interrupted, a mass of curious stood in the roadway. The arrival of the Prince was announced in advance. The crowd was very considerable. The demagogues took some measures to trouble the reception which awaited Louis Napo leon on his return from his journey. On some points, and especially before the Passage Jouffroy, hostile groups were carefully stationed. From these groups were heard all the declamations which are familiar to the democratic . socialists. In the ranks of the veritable population the conversation,•on the con trary, was on the excellent effect of the ex cursion in the departments, which was repre • seated to be devoted to the doctrines of disorder, on the firmness, the presence of mind, the good sense, and the patriotism which had inspired the acts and words of the chief of the state. The cortege of the President rapidly descended the Boulevards. His carriage was preceded by a piquet of chasseurs a cheval, surrounded by cerabiniers, and fol lowed by half a squadron of hussars. On the -passage of the Prince, the cries of ' Vive Napo leon!" Vive le President !' did not cease to be uttered. It is needless to say that the demagogic groups did their best to cause to be heard the cry which, since the departure of the Prince, has become the mot d'ordre of socialist monarchy. In despite of their efforts, however, acclamations continued on all the line of the Beulevard. At a quarter past nine o'clock, Louis Napoleon arrived at the Elysee. Not withstaecling the fatigues of this long journey, his health 'is perfectly good."—The Republique gives the following :—" The rumour of the arrival of M. Lcuis Napoleon Bonaparte at Paris attracted last evening an unaccustomed crowd of promenaders on the Boulevards, amongst whom at each step were officiers-de pair and sergens. de-ville. Corn pact groups occupied the entrance of the Rues Hauteville and the Faubourg Puissoniere, the cortege having to come from the Strasburg Railway station. The Society of the Dix Decembre tool its measures well; for more than an hour before the arrival of the President its members filled the Rue Chabrol, and uttered unconstitutional cries. Lost trouble, h::-N -ever I At half-past eight, as soon as the first. dra goons of the escort appeared, M. earlier, Prefect of Police, on horseback et their head, an immense cry of "Viva la Re.publique"was heard on the Boulevard, and went from distance to distance in formidable echoes. Some men who had climbed to the top of cabs cried " Viva linpolLn 1" but this cry was immediately covered by a democratic acclamation which lasted for more r then a quarter of an hour. And let the journals of the Elys6e not say that last evening the men who uttered enthusiastic shouts for the Republic were plid—the crowd was too numerous, the cries too unanimous. At the doors of the public establishments and the principal cafés, there was not an habitu6 who did not shout ' Vive la Republique.' " The meetings of the Councils- General of the depart ments are looked forward to with great interest. The Bonapartists have been making strenuous endeavours to induce them to pass resolutions for a revision of the Constitution, and for a prolongation of the powers of the PRESIDENT. The Legitimatists will, it is said, join with the Republicans of all shades in opposing such propositions, and in several of the Councils lively debates have taken place on the subject. The Council-General of Aube agreed to a resolution pray ing for a revision of the Constitution, without alluding to the PRESIDENT ; that of the Pyrenees Orientales expressed a wish for the prolongation of the Presi dency for ten years. The Councils-General, how ever, can scarcely be considered as the representatives of popular opinions. They resemble, in their consti tution, the Irish grand juries, and are, moreover, ex pressly forbidden by law to take part in political discussions. Several arrests have been made of persons charged with uttering seditious cries. The PRESIDENT leaves Paris for Cherbourg on Monday; he proceeds by railway to Havre, where a steamer will be in waiting to convey him to Cher bourg. It is said that a change of Ministry is immi nent, and that the new Ministry will be composed of men of the DUFAURE party. The Prince DE JOINVILLE has, it is said, signified his willingness to become a candidate for the office of PRESIDENT of the Republic in 1852.

The Kolner Zeitung has a telegraphic dispatch from Vienna of the 27,h inst., stating that the official Weiner Zeitung, of that day publishes a note, pro testing ttiat Austria (in her quarrel with Prussia on the dislocation of the Baden troops) accepts the pro posed Court of Arbitration with a view to have the regulations of the fortress of Mentz interpreted by the said Court. In the same dispatch it is asserted that the journey of Prince Schwartzenberg to Ischl is in connexion with the arrival at Lintz of the Count Nesselrode, and with the final settlement of the Ger man question. The following decree of the Grand Duke of Meck lenburg-Schwerin has just appeared: — Whereas the arbitral decision concerning the legal validity of the constitution promulgated on the loth of October lr.st year will be shortly given, but as under these circumstances it does not appear opportune to pro ceed to the elections prescribed by our ordonnance of Ist July last, we order as follows:-1. The elections fixed for the 26th inst., t) form a new Chamber of Deputies, shill Lot take place. 2. A decision will be her( after come to on this subject after the arbitral decision 611411 have been pronounced." The Allg,enzeine Zeitung publishes the following from Munich of the 25th : " The arrival of his M:ljesty, King Otho, from Greece at Tfic:ste yesterday was receivc.d here by telegraphic dispatch last night. Ile was to continue his journey by way of Sabzbt.rg, and is expected to arrive here on the 29th. He will proceed from the capital of llohen Schwan au, and subsequently to Ayschalienburg. Ilis Majesty's stay is at present faxed or two months." The Cologne Gazette, of the 29±, gives the follow ing from Hesse C issel, of tile 26th : •' To-day the Minister of Finances, M. Lametsch, opened the Assembly of the States. In his opening speech the Minister said the finances had not recovered from the distressed state in which they wore when the Assembly separated, and urged it to grant the means to meet the public expenses. A project of law would be presented to the Assembly giving authorisation to the Government to collect the taxis to the 30th S4tember. After the vote it will Le prorogued until a new budget is prepared. After the Minister's speech all the Members were sworn. A Committee was then appointed to draw up an address in reply to the speech." DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. A telegraphic dispatch from Hamburgh in the Kohler Zeitung states that in the evening of the 26th inst. five Danish vesseis approached the Holstein coast near Noer, arid that they effected a landing at Griioewold. The garrison of Kiel was sent out to drive them b ick to their ships. General WiLusEN, the Commander-in-Chief of the Schleswig-Holstein army, has published the fol lowing notice:— " Rendsburg, Aug. 20. " It has occurred that the former notice of the general commanding relative to the admission of foreign (that is, non-Schleswig-Holstein) officers in the army has been frequently misinterpreted. Tho General com manding, therefore, cinnot omit to repeat that net all those who may be, or who have been, officers can be i.drat:ed, but only those who are young, active, and provided with good papers, and who have not been too long out of service, and whose resignation has been vo luntary. Infantry officers et German contingent?, to whom the above may be applicable, may still find em ployment in the Schleswig-Holstein army according to shale seniority.

The Grand Doke CONSTANTINE, who is in com mand of a division of the Russian squadron off Schles wig, reached Copnll:;•gen on a visit to the KING on the 24th. His Imperial Highness, who arrived in a Russian war steamer, took his quarters at the house of the Russian Envoy, Baron DL" STERNBERG, and was immediately visited by the KING, and in vited to a grand dinner at the palace. Reports are current at Copenhagen of a partial modification of the Cabinet, by the resignation of Alevrs. DE MID VIG and CLAUSEN, Ministers of Finance and Justice. . --- - The Koln Zeitung gives the following telegraphic dispatch : .‘ HAMBUIIGII, AUG. 27, HALF-PAST FOUR, P.M.— In the previous night the Danes arrived at Grunewold, not far from Noer, with four ships, and landed troops. The garrison in Kiel had been alarmed." SATITIIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 31, 1850. TURKEY. Advices have been received from Constantinople to the 13th instant. General AUPIC, the French Mi nister, in answer to remonstrances which he thought it his duty to make, had received assurances from the Porte that the Turki.la fleet was not intended to attack Tunis, but would remain in the neighbour• hood of Samos and Candia. The sister of the SULTAN, ATM SULTANA died on the 10th instant. Three hundred Hungarian refugees left Constan tinople for Trieste, on the 17th. Mr. URQUHART was at Constantinople and in cons t an t communication with the Turkish Ministers. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The Cotton market at Liverpool yesterday was quiet.

The features of the Bank of England return, taken for th 3 week to the 24th instant, are much the same as those noticed upon previous occasions hcely. The ba lance to the credit of Government is increasing, and private d0,..05!t ;rs are withdrawing a portion of their surplus as they find readier employment for it. The extended loans upon other securities also bear out the view thy t there is greater facility in placing surplus cash.

The following is the speech delivered by the King of GREECE at the prorogation of the session of the Greek Parliament at Athens, on the 9th inst.:— " Gentlemen Deputies and Senators,—Before putting an eod to the present Parliamentary session, my heart feels an ardent desire, In presenting myself personally within these walls to hid you farewell, t 3 express my satisfaction at the devotion you have manifested towards me personally, and for the support which you have ren dered to my Government i❑ circumstances of difficulty. This support on your part, which was the expression of the national sentiment, encouraged my Government to pursue the path cf na!ional honour which it had re solved to follow, and, combined with the ready expres sion of good will on the vat cf the Allied Powers, has conducted U 3 to an honourable solution of the difficulties which has arisen. ."The gewrous and patriotic approbation with which you have adopted the budget of 1851, is an act of the highest importance, through which we shall be able to conform to the constitution in the fullest ee g ree. What adis more to the satisfaction which I experi ence on this occasion is the canonical recognition, so much desired by the people, of the independence of the Greek Church, and consequently the re-establishment of relations with the Chief Church at Constantinople. If the short space of time which has passed between the cocap:etion of this important work and the close of the session has not allowed my Gov3rnment to submit to you the projets of the d:tLrent laws which will become necessary respecting the church of the kingdom, I have not the less desired, in addressing for the last time at this period the Nlennb.:rs of the Legislature, to announce to them this memorable event. " Hiving resolved, on th;cecasion of my approaching . departure, to entrust th regency to the Qneeu, my well beloved Consort, I in doing to furni.h the nation with a striking prof of my care 'and my confidence. In your passing with so much resadiness the law relating to it, 3ou have furnished a new proof of your attachment to my per on. During iny absence you will all surround and support the Q.wtn, thus persevi,ring in your fide lity to the throne, and at the Lame time maintain among yourselves an unshaken union. " I now thclare this, the third and last session of the second legiAative periA of the Chambers, to be closed." THE LEGITIMATIST CONGRESS AT WIESBADEN. The Cookntz Gazette has the following from \Vies baden of the 241: " The much-talked-of arrangement between the two parties of the Bourbons cannot by any means be re garded as concluded. Hitherto the Duke de Bordeaux has avoided every kind of approach to anything having even the shadow of prejudice to the legitimacy of his pretensions, but he has never concealed his readiness at an accommodation. This seems now to be met. Count Salvandy, Minister of Louis Philippe, has been here for some time, and there is every reason to hope that th e r e will be an accommodation, which will probably result in the fusion of the two branches, by the Duke do Bor deaux adopting ono of the sons of the Duke of Orleans. There are a great many Catholic olorgy and French nobility here at present. The Duke de Bordeaux has been fully occupied since his stay here; his mornings are occupied in giving private audiences; ho sees every visitor; scrupulously listens to every counsel that may be offered, and as opinions are very diverse respecting the present situati,n of France, he assiduously collects all information. It is known, however, that the policy be recommends is that of M. Berryer and General St. Priest, a noble and expansive policy, in which all the great interests of society may find protection. ITALY. The following from Rome of the 31st instant ap pears in the Messenger of Modena. It may be con sidered in light of a semi-official account : " There has just been constituted a now commission specially charged to occupy itself with new organic laws, destined to develope the principles of the meta proprio of the 7th September, 1849. It is not doubted that this act, published.with so mnch solemnity, commu uicatcd to the diplomatic body, commented on in the French Assembly, and in the Catholic and Conservative journals, will become the fundamental basis of a now order of government. The commission, of which Car dinal Antomdli is a member, and who desired to call it a Consulta of Sete, will receive the name of Permanent Council of Finances. It appears that the Council of State will not sit in a regular manner, but only when the Government shall see proper to ask its advice on questions of legislation or public altninistration." Letters from Rome represent the social state of that city as most dep lo rable. ANTONELLI the R OBESPIER RE of the re-action, has established the reign of terror, and N ARDONI is his FOUQUIEB TINVILLE. The family of the NARDUCCI have been exposed to the most shameful persecutions. Madame THERESE NARDUCCI was, some months since, arrested for having prayed in the church of St. Ignatius for the soul of her son, who was killed on the bastion of St. Pancrazio, while defend ing his native city against foreign invasion. She was thrown into the public prison, and forced to associate with galley slaves and thieves; she was afterwards released, with orders not to quit her house ; she was again suddenly arrested one morning before she had risen from her bed, and con ducted on foot to prison in her night-clothes by the Papal Shirri through the public streets; she was again released, and ordered not to quit her house, where she remeined a prisoner eight months. During this time her husband and her brother-in-law were ar rested, and after being kept in prison some time were released, no charge being made against them, but were put under the surveillance of the police. After being detained eight months under arrest in her own house, Madame THERESE Naanucci was honoured by a call from the valet of the President of Sacra Cunsulta, Monsignor MANTE ucct, who made to her verbally the following com municetion :—" Madame THERESE you may quit your house, Monsignor having declared that you are innocent." From the period of her first arrest she was never brought before any au th o rity or examined by any officer of justice. The resto red clerical Go• vernment is universally detested. Sig nor ANTONINI, arrested the other day by order of .NARDONI, was asked by the magistrate if he knew any Mazziniens cans)? ANTONINI replied (it is thus the clerical party designate the Republiz " Name them,'' continued the magistrate. " Wil lingly," replied ANTONINI, " with the exception of " Yes ; a great number . . som monks, some priests, and the frequenters of the Bonifazi club, the entire population of the Ito. man States is Mazzinien."
