Ghelia, with his three highly-trained Steeds, M. Nicol° Plige, the great Barrel Equilibrist, and the Bi o thers Francisco, from the Hippodrome, Paris. Te conclude with an entirely new and original grand historical Equestrian Christmas Pantomime, written expressly for this Theatre, by the author of " Bluff King Hal," to be entitled HARLEQUIN AND O'DONOGHITE ; or, The White Horse of Killarney. To say that this Equestrian Pantomime will be superbly " mounted," is to say no more than must be expected ; coming, as it does, surrounded with such favourable auspices. It has been said by some authors, that ("Donoghue (but I don't know who) was a good Prince of Ireland; who, eschewing whiskey, was always chewing water, and kicking his eels (heels) at the bot tom of the Lake of Killarney, excepting once a year when, flndin; himself taken with a swimming in the head, he would pop up to the surface, and mounting his charger, would charge her to gallop across the Lake. Many e. potted that so much galloping would have thrown him into a galloping consumption ; but such has not proved the case, for some assert that net only he, but his Horse too, is "still alive and kicking." Tbis hard galloping, or Galloparding, always occurred on the Eve of May-Day. The description of him is that he was tall—but not at all too tall—that he was handsome, and would hand some whatever they desired—that his appearance was even in the light of Day—tbat of an Electro-plated Knight; for he was covered all over with a thin Coat of Silver—this Coat he could never wear cur, because he was always at home. Eat now to the Pantomime : SCENE THE FIRST. THE uLEN OF MISCHIEF. The Hag or lll:schict; over a Peat Fire, is still trying to elicit fro! an Illicit Still the Evil Spirit of Ireland, in the form of WHISKEY who, though still in the Still, won't be still, but "busts his biter; and stands confessed the RE AL POTE EN ! This powerful Spirit is sent by the Hag of Mischief, under the disguise of Paddy Carey, to tempt and tutu the followers of " Father Mathew" and the " Water Cure," whom, she says, are the especial favourites of the " Water Drinking Fool," O'Donoghue. Whiskey s ears he'll de her bidding, for he'll fire them with drink, IT making them as drunk as blazes' Mischief parts from Whiskey with " a drop in her eye," but Whiskey is not so affected ; for he is sure that where Whiskey is, Mischief won't be far off. SCENE THE SECOND. THE LAKE OF KILLARNEY. The entrance to the Mansion of Lord Bullfrog is on one side, on the other a little inn. It being in Ireland, the sign was to have been " a Bull," but "hulls" not being in fashion at present, it has been changed to the " Queen's Head." It being May-Day Eve, the Fairies of the Lake are seen dancing and strewing flowers on the water, as if sweetly M'Adamizing the road, preparatory to the ap pearance of O'DONOGIIIIE ON HIS WHITE HORSE. He gallops across the Lake, says much that is well worth hearing, puts on the habit of a Beggar, and, " 0 Charming May," what a time for making a little love; so think the fair Kathleen and her Lover Dermot Astore, but instead of making a little, they make a great deal. She relieves the Beggars wants, and then wants to have a little more love. It has long since been an established fact, that even Cupid, who can change any man into a goose, sometimes has his own " goose eooked," and so it proves now, for Lord Bull frog's Cookey, discovering the Lovers, flares up, a " broil" ensues, and all are thrown into a perfect " stew." At this critical moment, Lord Bullfrog, with his jovial companions, return from the chase. Lady Bullfrog (to see her is to love her), with her interesting little family, comes to meet him. She flies into her husband's arms—and thus (as many married ladies 'have done before) stands "in arms against her husband." Lord Bullfrog is enraged with the Lovers, so to punish Dermot, who is in his debt, he seizes his only friend, his Horse, by way of payment, but gets " more kicks than ha'pence." O'Donoghue, as the medicant, aids the Lovers, and Dermot's Hone is restored. Lord Bullfrog, being determined to get rid of his plague of a daughter, pu's her up as " a Prize," which makes her look very " blank," as he exclaims— Whoe'er to-morrow brings the fairest steed, The one that leaps the best, has greatest speed; Shall have fair Kathleen—yes, she and all her tin, So try your lucks, and let the best Horse All disperse - , leaving Dermot alone with his Horse, by whose aid, he feels certain to win his heart's dearest hope. But, alas I " the course of trua love never did run smooth." Whiskey comes In the way, and whisks away his senses—then his money—and, at last, his Horse; Whiskey mounts the Horse, and, setting up a horse laugh, gallops off with it. Dermot in despair determines to try the "Water Cure," by drowning: himself, but: is prevented by O'Dono ghue, who promises to lend him another horse for the morrow's race, and at on:e takes to the bottom of the Lake. SCENE THE THIRD, THE CORAL STABLE OF THE THOUSAND STEEDS. Here O'Donoghue's White Horse is seen quite at v homeenjoying his banquet, waited upon by Ponies and Water Fairies. He is in the prime of lite. " None of your has-beens," for he " never has beans," but dines off his three courses like a gent. consisting of a TUREEN of PUMP SOUP, a dish of STEWED HORSE LEECHES, and a plateau of CORNED BEEF, the whole washed down by a bottle of CLOVER WINE. Having a turn for taciturnity, he stands no " chaff," and having cat his corns, has no objections to a little dance. Dermot chooses a Horse, which, as might be expected, proves " one in a thousand." He feel; " quite up in the stirrups," and as he is changing his clothes, he is closed in by changing the scene to SCENE THE FOURTH. - - THE LAUGHING FOREST. Whiskey and Mischief meet again. The Evil Spirit tells the Hag that ho has obtained Dermot's far:Amite Horse, and on it he hopes to win the race, and thus bring Kathleen rrithin their power. The trees enjoy the fun, and though precious old ones, " laugh like new 'uns." SCENE THE FIFTH. MAY-DAY IN TIIE HILLS OF KILLARNEY. Mete we find Morris Dancing, Running in a Sack, Grinning through a Collar, and other delicate amusements previous to the GREAT TRIAL! All the competitors seize their stirrups, and some of them "put their foot in it." But where is Dermot? If they start without him, there will be a start with a vengeance. But no ! he is coming, and very becoming he comes. All is prepared; off they go. TLis proves true enough, for many go off over their horses' necks. Der mot leaps his Lordship's "gate" after a "style" of his own Whiskey being a lad of " spirit," is not at all behind. Now for the Race, which is to decide all ! Kathleen trembl s. Whiskey must put his strength to the proof. Kathleen takes courage, for to her Dermot is tar too winning to lose—nor does he ; bat Whiskey getting possessicn of Kathleen and the Fairy Steed, flies off with her. All consterea tion—"Pursue, pursue." SCENE THE SIXTH, THE PURSUIT THROUGH THE LAUGHING FOREST. O'Donoghue again befriends Dermot, by lending him his own While Horse—Cooky has mounted her Arabian steed, which, clever us she thought him, proves a perfect ass. SCENE THE SEVENTH. THE LAKE OF KILLARNEY (as before). The Evil Spirit and Kathleen fly across. The Horse knows his own stable, so vanishes beneath the Lake, and thus water overcomes the power of Whiskey. Dermot, on O'Donoghue's White Horse, flies to the rescue of his love, and brings her safely to land again— when, as might be expected, De:mot is c' anged to Harlequin, Kali ken to Columbine, Lord Bullfrog to Pantaloon, and Blousabella Brisket, the Fat C ok, to Clown. What follows comes after, and the Harlequinade hegins. CHARACTERS IN THE OPENING. SPIRITS. -- ---- O'Donoghuc (the Fairy Prince of Killarney's Lake) Coralina (First Fairy). Waterlily (iSeeend Fairy).

THE WINDOW Tax.—We have much pleasure in announcing, that arrangements liave already been mat ure d in the leading towns in the provinces, fora simultaneous and mostvigorous agitation, in conjunction with the metropolii, for the repeal of the window duties. From what we know of the organization which exists in both town and country, we have no doubt whatever that before the middle of the see- Sion we shall have to include the window tax in the category of the things that were.—Advertiser.

COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS' BENEVOLENT INSTITU- Twx.— The first annual meeting of this institution wa3 hell yesterday at the London Tavern ; Mr. Jenkin Jones in the chair. The report congratulated the members of the com mercial body on the support which the institution had already received, the number of annual subscribers exceed ing 700, the great majority of whom had paid up their sub scriptions. The total receipts amounted to 415/. 14s. 6d., and the expenditure to 02/. 18s. 6d., leaving a balance in band of 3221. 16s. The committee had been principally en gaged throughout the year in drawing up rules for the go vernment of the institution, which they hoped would meet with the approbation of the subscribers. The report con cluded by urging upon the commercial world to support both this society and the traveller,' school, it being equally important to provide for their own declining years, the re lief of their widows, and the education of their children. The report was adopted, and the officers for the ensuing year ap pointed, and after a vote of thanks to the chairman the meeting separated.

Although the engine-drivers and firemen of the northern division of the London and North-Western Railway have not as yet withdrawn their unreason able demands, or formally abandoned their ridiculous pretensions, the contest may be regarded as virtually closed. The difference between "sayings and doings" has received an additional and very striking illustra• tion. While the malcontents have been " talking," the directors have been acting strenuously and effi ciently, and they are already prepared for any alternative—ready, not only to accept the resignations that may be tendered, but even to take the initiative and remove the disaffected—all who may refuse to abide by the re gulations that have been adopted, after full and ma ture consideration—from the company's service. This day will bring matters to a crisis. There must be a total and unconditional submission, en the part of the men, or they will receive notice to quit ; there will be no parleying with delegates, no recognition of illegal confederations, but each man will be required to state positively and distinctly his unqualified alle giance to his employers. Woe to those who refuse or even hesitate. " There is a light cloud on the moon, 'Tis passing, and will pass full soon; If by the time its vapoury sail Hath ceased her shaded orb to veil Their hearts within them be not changed"— then must they be prepared to encounter the inevitable results c f their insubordination and tle:r mischievous attempt at dictation. They have grievously miscal culated their own strength, and the ample resources of those whom they have so inconsiderately set at defiance. They seem to have been impressed with the notion that the matter was one simply between themselves and their employers ; that then were no auxiliaries to whom the latter could look for assistance and aid, no .persons out of employment in any degree acquainted with the art and mystery of engine -driving, or of the mode of sup plying coke to the furnaces, so as to keep up the ne cessary fires under the boilers, who could be procured as substitutes in their places. They were, however, egregiously mistaken in these opinions, having "reckoned without their host" with a vengeance. As we have already stated, the question is not one in which the directors of the London and North-Western are alone concerned ; every board of every com pany, throughout the length and breadth of the land, are equally interested in the re sult, and would join heart and hand in the struggle, notwithstanding any minor disputes or differences that may still remain unsettled. Party dissensions are forgotten in the face of a common foe. Whig and Tory, Conservative and Radical, Protec tionist and Free-trader, would cordially unite to repel an invasion, and so would railway directors to overthrow a mischievous system, equally injurious to all, and to which each might fall victims in turn. Ample assistance might therefore be looked for from the locomotive departments of other companies, and, indeed, we believe we are justified in stating that Lifers have been made to a greater extent than the exi gencies of the case could require. There are also, it appears, many duly qualified and competent engine-drivers now unemployed, men whose characters would bear the strictest investiga tion, desirous of obtaining engagements with the North-Western Company, who would gladly sub scribe the regulation as to the three months' notice. The directors would have no difficulty in providing fitting substitutes for the seceders, without being driven to the necessity of taking inferior men, or having their duties performed in an improper manner. During the E istern Counties' strike so many appiicationa were received that the directors were enabled to obtain picked men of unquestionable character, and to reject those who would not have been accepted under ordinary circumstances ; and, as we have already shown, the fate of the combinatory may afford a salutary lesson to those who have suffered themselves to be misled through the sinister advice of mischievous and designing men, who are acting on them for their own vile purposes. The meeting of the men of the southern division, which took place on Thursday evening, however, gave the coup de grace to the hopes of the iasurgents? It was distinctly shown that those who had themselves no grievances to complain of would not make com mon cause with the disaffected, or, to use the words of one of the delegates from Wolverton, that " they would not turn out' with the men of the norther, division." This was decisive on the question, and there was much sound sense exhibited during the discussion. What fell from an engine -driver named SIMPSON, a delegate from the Great Western Railway, was especially deserving of notice. _ _ He said, " that he could not see the inconvenience of the three months' notice, if it should be signed, provided the masters willingly agreed to allow the men, if they obtained bona fide situations, to quit them at a week or fortnight." Now this point was especially looked to by the provision that " for any engineman who wished to make a bond fide engagement with any other company, or who shall propose to go abroad, or, in fact, shall wish to leave the company's service for any valid reason un connected with a general strike, the usual fortnight's notice would be deemed sufficient." What they are contending for is therefore nothing affecting their individual interests, by which any man could possibly be prejudiced or his privileges curtailed, but to retain a mischievous power of con trolling their employers by illegal combination. That is the true point at issue, and that must now be set at rest. The judicious advice of SIMPSON, one of them elves, should sink deep into their minds. lie declared, " to come to the conclusion to advocate strikes is only to advocate a red for our own backs, and must prove a great disadvantage to the whole body of enginenlen. We have had evidence of this throughout, and I believe the Eastern Counties' strike might have been preventcd, if they had adhered to wise and good counsel. The more strikes there are the worse for ourselves, for we always find a certain set of men During the week which is now just expiring an Irish deputation, headed by Lord MONTEAGLE, waited upon the Commission already mentioned as at present sitting to decide upon the most available route to America, in connexion with the linking to gether of the Atlantic and the Pacific. On this oc casion it appears that Mr. Hows, the Honourable Provincial Secretary of Nova Scotia—a gentleman whose arrival in this country we have before this more than once alluded to —was present as a spectator. Although participating in no way in the proceedings, Mr. HowE was ultimately induced to address a few words to the Commission in the presence of the Irish deputation, baying been induced to do so by a direct reference to the fact of his presence made in the address of Lord MONTEAGLE. The Honourable Gentleman observed " that, as Lord MON TEAGLE had done him the honour to mention his name, it might be proper for bim to say that he had come to the commtnission by invitation of one of the gentlemen who took an interest in the proceedings, only as a spectator, and to show that the general question involved deeply concerned the provinces he represented. He had come to this country to endeavour to interest her MAJESTY'S Government in a scheme of policy and public works, by which an extension of the English and Irish railroads would be carried al most immediately through the North American pro vinces, remotely, perhaps, to the Pacific. His first duty was to place before the Right Honourable the Colonial Secretary the views of his Government. He was discharging that duty, and would much pre fer that the Commission should have those views in a condensed form, to which Earl GREY would probably not object, to encumbering their minutes with dis jointed evidence. The first result of the policy he advocated would be to secure to British subjects and British seaports the conveyance of passengers and letters between Europe and America. The next, the establishment of cheap steamers for the middle and working classes ; and, thirdly, the filling up the waste lands of the provinces with industrious and prosperous people. The territory which Great Britain owned in North America was as large as the whole United States-.as large as all Europe—with noble harbours on the At lantic and Pacific coasts—rivers and lakes of great magnitude for internal navigation—rich and extensive mines—the best fisheries in the world, and a bracing and healthy climate. There was a home and a freehold estate for any English. man, Irishman, or Seotchman that wanted one. The best test of the resources of the coun• try was to be found in the last five years' experience. The potato rot had been as de structive in North America as in the United King dom—the fly during the same period had west( d much of the wheat. In the mother country thou sands had died of starvation—in the North American provinces, not one ; nay, he did not believe that one man, woman, or child had during these five years gone without three meals a day. England supported last year about GO,OOO able-bodied people upon her poor -rates. North America could, with a little judicious preparation, take them all ; and once removed there, after the first year they would never know want again. It was not for him to say what port in Ireland or elsewhere should be selected for purposes of emigration ; various ports would be convenient, as Glasgow for Scotland; Belfast, Cork, or Galway, for Ireland ; Liverpool or Southampton (or both), for England. He might observe, howevar, that for the transmission of letters, telegraphic mes sages, and commercial passengers, a great mistake would be made if the shortest route vi as not selected. Suppose they selected the wrong port, for a time, perhaps, the bounty which the Government gave of 145,000/. a year might defy competition with the right one; but remove that bounty, and he would form a company in a week, who if they would save ten hours in the transmission of letters, commercial travellers, and telegraphic ales. who have no characters while things are straight, but who are taken on to supply the places of honest men if a strike occurs. A strike, therefore, throws respectable men out of situations ; and I know many men who, though insufficient, are depend ing on what they think our over-sufficiency?' He added, and with much truth, his belief " that strikes can always be avoided if proper precaution s are used," and that he, " for.one, would never advocate a strike, because he thought things could be amicably settled without it." The men at Bedford bad exhibited a similar spirit, and illustrate the accuracy of our as sertion, " that a majority of the men themselves, if they ventured to express their own views, would coincide with the public generally." A resolution was ultimately carried, recommending a compromise, but the time for a compromise has passed. The direc tors must and will stand firm. They have now the game in their own hands, and they will not throw it away. We cannot conclude without imploring the misguided men to reflect on the fearful consequences of continuing in their unreasoning obstinacy, and to avail themselves of the locus penitentice that is still afforded to them by the leniency of the directors. A striking illustration has again been afforded of the evil consequences resulting from the preference of the longer over the shorter route from England to the North American continent. The circumstance to which we would here direct attention is the more significant at the present moment, seeing that a Com mission is now sitting to decide upon the best line of intercommunication between the Pacific and the At lantic, as well as between the eastern and the western hemispheres. Considering the enormous sums of money expended upon the maintenance of the route to New York, considering, moreover, the immense importance of expediting the voy age as much as is practicable, and in ad dition to all this, considering the circumstance that the vessels going to New York pass by llalifax on their way to the United States without putting in— it is really a matter of some moment to resolve upon the line to be_ definitively established as the passage course to the New World from England. As re cently as the 3d instant, according to the advises re ceived in this country among the last North Ameri can intelligence, the Government steam-ship Asia passed the capital of Nova Scotia in the manner in dicated, namely, on her way to New York, without pausing to communicate with that province ; whereas an hour would have been amply sufficient to allow of her putting in to that harbour, in which case the news from Europe might have been transmitted on the wings of lightning over the length and breadth of the civil:zed portion of the American continent (by means of the electric telegraph) forty-eight hours earlier than it could possibly be effected according to the existing system of arrangement. In consequence of this blundering regulation it happens actually that letters and packages, after passing close by our North American possessions, are conveyed to a die'ant part of the United States and then sent back again by land (paying tribute, observe, to the Republican Go vernment, for so doing !) to their original destination. Was ever anything, we ask, more absurd than this ? Was ever anything more shortsighted or extravagant ? Yet such is habitually and systematically the case now-a-days —now in these times of steam and electri city, when the longest possible distances are travelled over in the shortest possible time ! The origin of all the evil is the arrangement not long since come to that the steam-packets shall alternately proceed to New York and to Halifax, in connexion with which preposterous and unsystematic regulation we are now paying no less a sum than 145,0001. per annum to the Cunard line from Liverpool! Supposing either Halifax in Nova Scotia, or St. John's in Newfoundland were made the calling port, all these difficulties would be effectually obviated and a variety of other benefits would accrue, not only to ourselves, but to our Transatlantic possessions. As was observed as far back as the 31st of July last, by a merchant of Portland, you would by this means be enabled to leave the starting point with less coal, in which event " your boat will be lighter, and she will steam faster and make the voyage in one or two days less time." The consideration, though apparently trifling, is in these times of rapid locomotion of no little importance. Besides which, the same intelligent observer continues---" you will have more room to carry dry goods, which pay well, and I presume large quantities will be shipped by this route for Canada, the States, and lower provinces." Innumerable other advantages might be calculated upon with readiness, but enough has already been observed to suggest to the mind of the reader the value of such an inno vation. MBER 2B, 1850. sages, would take them all from the Government line. The experience of Nova Scotia illumtrated that—the Telegraphic line across that province, was in the hands of its Government—American speculators in cotton and corn would buy it at any price. Why ? Because, when cotton was up a halfpenny per pound; or corn a shilling per bushel, the knowledge of the fact was worth millions of dollars to those who had a few hours priority of intelligence. For the same reason business men and business letters will go by the shortest and best route ultimately, no matter how the members of the Commission decide." Such were some among the sententious and suggestive thoughts to which the Provincial Se cretary gave utterance within the last few days— thoughts to the consideration of which we would earnestly direct the attention of our industrious and intelligent community. Several of the remarks here made by that gentleman are of a nature so startling as to arrest observation, as where he reminds Eng land that within reach of a few days steaming from her shores she has a territory capable of sup porting all her indigent and unemployed popu lation a territory as large as the United States, as large as the whole of Europe ! He calls, moreover, to the consideration of the mother country that in her North American pro vinces she possesses land capable, among other things, of at once relieving her from the burden of organized pauperism by sustaining the 60,000 able-bodied people at present maintained by our poor rates ! And such are the poasessions which we have hitherto neglected, and which we are still neglecting, abandoning its fruitfulness, for the most part, to a savage state of uncuitivation, allowing it to remain a tangled wilderness, inhabited by the wild beasts which are hunted down by the salaried Nimrods of the Hudson's Bay Company ! England may at length avail herself of the wealth so long neglected, and so easily grasped, by bearing these astonishing facts in recollection, when deciding upon the best route between the two hemispheres, preparatory to the opening of a permanent line be tween the Pacific and the Atlantic. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. ALLAIS, the denouncer of the a ll ege d B onapart i st plot . for le assassination of G enera l C HANGARNIER f and M. Durtst, has, as .might have been foreseen from the conduct of the judge on the first day of the trial, been convicted of calumny. He was sentenced to one year's imprisonment and to a fine of 300 francs. Notwithstanding this decision, M. Duris still pro fesses his belief in the existence of the plot, and re fuses to accede to the demand of the Government for the dismissal of M. YON. In this refusal he is sup ported by the Questors of the Assembly, who insist upon the right of the Assembly to appoint its own police force. The matter must come before the As• sembly for decision, and MM. BAROCuE and CARLIER declare they will resign if M. YoN is continued in office, whilst M. DUPIN declares that he will resign the Presidency of the Assembly should M. YoN be dismissed. Overtures have been made from the Elree to M. ODILON BARROT to take office, but be decline!. The Minister of the Interior having published a " communicated" note,lbut without signature, in the Moniteur denying the existence of an official report, to which allusion was made in the debate on the California lottery by M. PASCAL DUPSIAT, that gen tleman has addressed the following note to the Mi nister in reply : " You have published an anonymous note, in which it is said that the report read by me in the debate on Sa , turday has never existed. Tnis is my answer. I affirm that too report has existed, and that it existed at the moment I addressed my interp4ations. I affirm that the report was written at the instance of M. Barcche himself. I affirm that the Minister has read the report. In fact I showed myself too generous in retiring at the tribune before the word of one of the members of the Cabinet. I believe it to be even so now in contenting myself with no more than a simple denial. " Accept, &c., " PASCAL DUPRAT, Representative of the People." The crusade against Protestantism threatened by MM. MONTALEMBERT, DE FALLOUX, and Co., has commenced. Henceforth Protestant children are to be refused admission to the public schools and universities. The fact is thus announced in the " A plan which we heard mentioned, but to which we could not attach any credit, appears, however, to ba serious. The question is said to be nothing more nor less than to exclude from the public schools all children whose parents are not Catholics. Special schools will be appropriated for children of Protestants and other creeds recognised in France. We are well assured that this unjustifiable idea is seriously contemplated. The Bishop of Viviers, and other members of the episcopacy, are its warm promoters and defenders. The fund ',- mental principle of 1789, that the state is laical, and that all Frenchmen are equal in the eye of the law, would be thus audaciously overthrown, and old religious animo sities would be revived. It is a great misfortune for such an idea to be even spoken of; but what would be the consequence if it should be realised?" The Bourse was dull, and the price of public se curities declined.

The same journal states that the Count DE LEININGEN has, in the name of the Germanic Confederation, prohibited the pub lication of the journals at Cassel, and renewed all the measures which had been originally adopted by General HAYNAU. The Civic Guard of Cassel was disarmed on the 23d. The Superior Tribunal of Appeal have refused to make the declaration required of them, as it dues not belong to the judges to decide on questions of law in a general manner. The Supreme Tribunal have made a similar declaration. Count DE LINANGES has granted to the two tribunals a further time for consideration till an answer is returned from Wil helmsbad. A letter from Berlin of the 231 states, that the Prussian Government has received notifications of assent from almost all the states of the Zollverein to the prolongation of the treaty of September. N. DCERNBERG, Charge d'Affaires of Electoral Hesse at Berlin, had returned to that Court, so that diplomatic relations between the two Governments may be re garded as resumed. The Austrian troops are preparing to evacuate the Bavarian territory. Orders have been given for the reduction of the army of Saxony. The delegates to the Dresden Conferences had a meeting on the 24th; the deliberations were conducted in secret. The Wiener Zeitung, of the 22d, says that the Austrian Minister of _Finance will not consent to a foreign loan until after the reduction of the army, and also reduction of the expenditure. The Minister, VON BRUM], proposes a loan combined with the re-or ganization of the bank. It is said there is to be some alteration in the conscription in the Lombardo-Vene tian kingdom; 14,000 recruits are to be levied—viz., 7,396 i❑ Lombardy and 6,404 in Venice. The con scription was to commence on the 20th December, and terminate on the 17th January. BELGIUM. The Belgian Chamber of Deputies adopted on Tuesday, by 52 votes to 16, the Bill presented by the Government relative to the withdrawing of gold pieces from legal circulation. ITALY. The Conservatore of Florence, of the 20th, states from Rome, that the dignity of Senator of that capit a l has been offered to the Prince of ROWAN°, who is said to have declined on the plea of ill health. The Clero Cattolico of Padua quotes a letter frcra Verona of the 30th ult., stating that thu congrega tion of the Fathers of Charity had just been dissolved by an Imperial decree, and that the Bishop o f VE RONA has been directed to provide by other means for the spiritual instruction of the flock who were under their charge. HIS GRACE THE DUKE OF NEWCASTLP.--Wo RK . &P.—We are happy to record that his Grace's health is still improving. We believe that the Noble Duke's recovery would be hailed with great delight, not only by the whole of the county of Nottingham, but by the country at large. his Grace's numerous tenantry, and the inhabitants of Worksop especially, heartily wish for his life to be prolonged amongst them, for as lord of the manor of Worksop the Duke of New castle has latterly given several substantial proofs of his kindness and regard. 4 0 j 103 - 11% 0:1 16 -17 13% - 13% 34 -3% 2% -2% 34 1% 5 1 - .2 - 1 -GM [0 I 10% - 11% 15 6,i -6% 15 • 4 - 4;4 tO 184 - 194 35 11 3 4 - 12 Ni 6% 2% -2% m I .• -•• 15 31% -32% i 0 23 -30 !? 6% -7% 1% - 2 li - li 15 17% - 17% 26% 2% -11 - 2% 12% - 12% 128 - 132 [5 - 63 [ . --6 _ 6% 87 -88 9 1.0% -11 U iO 57 -GO , 0 157 -60 •• - •• 13 -15 15 .. -.. 7% .. -.. ►0 20% - 2734 l 5 11 - 12 .0 10 - 103 0 1 N— 2% dil 46% 473{ 10 1128 - 130 :6 0 1 -. •• 2%-3. •• .... •• 10 2l —23 5 15 —l4 dig. 10 116 —l7 5 I 4% 434 as 8% —B% b 47i, —5% [7% 8% —B% die, i 0 17% - 184 5 41% - 42% 0% 7% -8% p. 18 18% - 19% 6% 7% - 774 15 18 -14 p 12% .. -.. 5 3 6 5%d18. 12 3 5% 4 3 / 4 dig, 8 9 3 / 4 —lO% 11 —l3 5% 6 8 34 — 9% 1% 1 db. 13% 14 3% —3% db. 13 —l5 11 —l3 3% 334 dis. 22% 33 .. - .. 22 -23 ,5 I a 234 cum.

The sales of Cotto n a t Li ver pool yesterday oers 6,000 bales, with a quiet but firm market. —Railway Shares were depressed. The return of the Bank of England for the week to the 21st instant has been looked for with more than usual interest, though rumour affirms' that the changes in the amount of bullion, &c., will be more important during th e present week, the official statement fo r which will not be p u bli s h e d unt il next F r id a y. An libstrac tion of 460,000/, in one week might not have led to all advance of discounts, even combined with the fact that the large sum received from Mexico and Panama disappeared; had . but w h en th e d eman d s till appeared mow tailed, and as is represented, French railway shares were returned in:lieu of bills or goods, the Bank directors became anxious. There is very little doubt that the uncertainty as to the course that will be pursued by the French Le gislature is the main cause of parties forcing so v3ucn gold upon the Mint; but if the amount be not really due to the French merchant or capitalist, he must sooner or later refund it, and the question is whether shares a re an eligible medium. Opinions will differ on this pol 4 'sg but assuming the prolongation of political trasquillitY' there is some tempt a ti on t o i nves t. It should be borne in mind further that although 2i per cent. has been the minimum rate of discount since November, 1848, it is slow charge, and could only have been allowed to remain while money continued very abundant. This admitted, three per cent. is not likely to prove onerous to those who can make good profits, and the doubt must arise w h e ther s further advance may not be resorted to, if th e P resent should prove ineffectual, as many parties in the Citi conceive it may. A temporary influence, at all events, was exercised yesterday, for the foreign exchanges became more in favour of this country. Let us fsir l Y turn into the new year, and the purchases of roils t(1/ replenish the exhausted stocks of Germany, Sce-i wi nf gradually and legitimately afford a fuller sol?Plf - bills, nor are we entir e ly sati s fied that produc e r ule° too high, certainly not in the interest of th a i depressed colonial grower, and that the con Spero buyers keep out of o u r mar kets on that account. Where , can they buy sugar, co ff ee , t ea or tallow, wool, image or cotton cheaper? If the prices are relatively high ber°' contrasted with former periods, are they not t he salve le India and America? And as to the manufactures, ish" then textile or metallic, are we not at this m oment on . derselling the United States' millowners and ironnotstere in their own market? Truly there is neither reasott nor justice in forcing produce to a speculatively high Poi nt " and to the detriment of the consumer ; but the i WO"' diate question is simply, whether we are charging more than the current rates in other countries.
