The law appointments in Ireland 'nave been filled up in a manner highly creditable to the Irish Go vernment, and which will give the greatest satisfac tion to the profession and the public generally in that country. As we had anticipated, Mr. MONAHAN will be the new Chief Justice. The Right Hon. Gentleman has accepted the office, subject to any re • duction in the salary and income which Parliament may make in accordance with the report of the Com mittee of the House of Commons upon official, diplo matic, and judicial salaries. It will be in the recol lection of our readers that Sir JOHN JERVIS recently accepted the similar office in this country—Chief Justice of the Common Pleas—on a similar condition, and it is, therefore, clear that no vested interest can now be created in either country that could by any possibility interfere with the pecuniary arrange ments that might be sanctioned by the Legislature. • Mr. MONAHAN has well deserved the distinguished position he has at length attained. As Crown prose cutor on the Connaught circuit, as law adviser, as the Castle Solicitor-General and Attorney-General, his zeal, efficiency, and untiring industry pointedhim out as a fitting candidate for promotion. From the very commencement of his career he gave evidences of his ability—from the hour when he terminated his col lege course by obtaining the science gold medal, the highest university honour that could be bestowed on a person professing the Roman Catholic religion, until he finally obtained the object of his highest am bition, the Chief- Justiceship of the Common Pleas— he has never faltered in his onward course, or de feated the sanguine anticipations that had been enter tained as to his progress. The promotion of Mr. He:refuel, to the Attorney • Generalship was so much a matter of course as to demand no particular notice. His appointment will create a vacancy in the representation of Windsor, for which—as the new Solicitor-General has not a seat in Parliament—he will again become a candi date, and most probably be elected without a contest. Mr. HATCHELL had long been distinguished as a nisi prius advocate on the Leiaster Circuit and in the Irish metropolis. He is also an admirable criminal lawyer, and remarkable for the stringency and ability of his cross-examination of a doubtful witness. It would indeed require no ordinary effrontery and self-possession on the part of a witness to persist in an unfounded statement when subjected to this trying ordeal. Mr. TIA.TCHELL is also a man of large private fortune, and, we believe, an excellent landlord, although he has suffered materially from the favourite pastime of Crop-lifting," which has become so fashionable among the peasantry of the south and west of Ireland. Mr. HENRY GeonGe HUGHES, the new Solicitor- General, has long attained a high reputation as an equity practitioner. Unlike the generality of barris ters in the sister kingdom, he restricted himself to the Courts of Chancery and the Equity Ex chequer, totally giving up the common •law courts. It was in the Rolls' Court that his business chiefly lay. He was almost invariably to be found from the sitting to the rising of the Court in the left-hand corner, just behind the inner place ; a place which, at length, by general assent, was looked upon as "}lnciaEs's seat," which it would be want of courtesy to trespass on. He soon became an oracle " on everything relating to the practice of the court, and a particular favourite with Sir MICHAEL O'LoonLEN, who fully appreciated the learning, tact, and intelligence of the young barrister, who had selected his court as the scene of his professional labours. After the lamented death of that great man, and the promotion of Mr. BLACKBURN (now Chief Justice of the Queen's Bench) to the Mastership of the Rolls, Mr. HUGHES fully maintained the position he had gained before Sir M. O'LOGHLEN, and also attracted the at tention of Sir EDWARD SUGDEN, who was much struck by the ability and intelligence which he dis played on every occasion. A small situation having fallen vacant about this time, was tendered by Sir EDWARD SUGDEN to Mr. HUGHES, who, al though a Roman Catholic, had never taken any part in politics ; elthough at that time the Peel Ministry were firm in their position, and there appeared no prospect of any change of Govern ment, Mr. HUGHES exhibited a degree of indepen dence that reflected the highest honour on his charac ter. Before accepting the office, he wrote to the L. rd Chancellor, apprising hies that his feelings and opi nions were altogether in favour of the opposition, and that, however flattered by the offer, he could not accept any political favour from those to whom he was opposed on prineiple. The Lord Chancellor, however, having in . a highly complimentary letter informed him that the offer was made as a re cognition of his professional merits, and not on any political ground whatsoever, Mr. llnemes accepted the situation, having gained fur himself the respect and approbation of his professional brethren by his conduct on the occasion. Since that period he has steadily progressed. He Eppedily obtained a silk gown, when not more than eight years' standing, and his present promotion has been aoknowledged by men of all classes, creeds, and parties to have been fully merited. A more unex ceptionable selection could not have been made, one which is alike honourable to the Irish Government and to the fortunate object of their choice. We rejoice to find that the all important subject of monetary reform is beginning to receive the atten tion it so eminently deserves. The different classes of the community are, at length, oven at the eleventh hour, shaking off the apathy and awakening from the slumbers in which they had so long been enveloped. They are gradually, but steadily, discovering how deeply their best interests, and the welfare and pros perity of their families, are involved in the result of the agitation of this truly monentous questit.n, and there is manifested a desire to attain information —to investigate the real circumstances of the case in all its bearings that must ultimately lead to the true solution of the great problem. There are , competent instructors, too, who spare no exertions to enlighten the popular mind, azd to dispel the clouds of ignorance and prejudice that have hitherto prevented the matter from being regarded in its true light. The National Currency Reform Association has selected the metro polis as the scene of its labours. Its admirable tracts, circulating throughout the length and breadth of the land, will excite a spirit of inquiry among a people, who when once aroused will not be contented with a mere smattering of the rudiments, but seek a sounder knowledge, that will enable them to combat and detect the specious fallacies of the bullionists. Local associations, too, have been formed, and are in course of formation, from which efficient aid may be anticipated during the approaching contest. The Liverpool Currency Re form Association still maintains the prominent position it assumed when it led the onward move ment, and,throughitsindefatigable and able secretary, Mr. JAMES liAnvnir, continues to enlighten the com mercial community of the modern Tyre. The lectures of Mr. JONATHAN DUNCAN, to which we recently directed the public attention, have stimulated the inhabitants of the manufacturing metropolis, and we trust that we shall ere long be enabled to announce that the men of Manchester have assumed a position worthy of their former fame—of the vanguard in the glorious campaign against the odious bread-tax. Even among the agriculturists currency opinions are steadily advancing. The Retford Currency Society now numbers many members, and its valuable publi cations circulate extensively among the farmers in the midland counties. The great success which has attended the efforts of this association is mainly to be attributed to one of its members, the Rev. JOHN TWELLS, the respected vicar of Eaton, to whose unceasing exertions in the good cause we have repeatedly alluded. The Rev. Gentleman endeavoured to teach his parishioners and neighbours the true nature of the currency question, being well convinced that it was by means thereby alone that the condition of the British nation, and in deed of the entire world, could be ameliorated. This attempt was denounced as Quixotic by many who had not sufficient energy to travel out of the beate❑ track; hut, notwithstanding the sneers of the scoffers, Mr. TWELLS has succeeded beyond even his most sanguine anticipations. The anxiety for instruction is not limited to the parish cf which be is the incumbent. The entire district, of which it is the centre, has par ticipated in the movement, and many meetings have been held in order to afford the people opportunities of hearing the lucid and satisfactory explanations of the Rev. Gentleman. Last week a meeting was held at Laxton, near Tuxford, which was numerously and respectably at tended. The agriculturists mustered in force, to learn that which, if judiciously carried into operation, would indeed afford " protection to British industry" in the most efficient:and, at the same time, the most unobjectionable manner—which would not benefit one class alone, at the expense of the rest of the community, but would promote the welfare of the industrious population of the country without any exception. Mr. TWELLS did not fail to improve the opportunity, and to rivet the attention once directed to the subject. He clearly and distinctly pointed out the mistake they committed, the one-sided view they have taken of their interests, in looking only " to the laws re specting what they have to sell —corn; and disre garding the laws about what they have to buy. money." The reasons SN by the farmers should endea vour to understand the currency question are so very satisfactory and so universal in their application —for they relate to merchants, traders, and manu facturers, as well as to farmers, and to the working classes, whose only capital h their labour, even more than to any others —that we cannot refrain from quoting them : "But why," said the Rev. Gentleman, " do I say that farmers ought to understand the currency question ? Becausci a great part of their labour, skill, and produce. must be resolved into money. Money is one-half of every bargain made between man and man, whether he is an agriculturist or a manufacturer. A farmer may be called a manufacturer of corn and cattle. In the earliest ages he would barter what he did not require for his own use for clothing and the necessaries and comforts of life. He would pay not only tithes, but taxes and debts in hind, but now he cannot do this. By the law of the land he must pay his debts, his reot, his taxes, his wages, in money. Now in order to do this he must barter away his produce to obtain money. He goes to market and he buys money with his produce—and that is the reason why anything which affects the value of money is a farmer's question. If you exchange or swop one thing for another; one horse, for instance, for another horse, you look not only at what you give but at what you receive. And here the agriculturists have, as I think, taken a one-sided view of their interests. They have been very anxious with regard to the laws made about what they had to Bel!, viz., corn, and have disregarded the law, made about what they hal to buy, v . a., money. They ought to have attendei to both, for both affect their in terests. You are told that price depends on supply and demand, which is quite true. Bat it depends on the supply and demand of two things, the commodity to be sold and the money to be bought. It the supply of money is decreased, prices fsli—if the supply of money is increased, prices rise. But you are told also that if money be decreased and the price of your produce f ill, you sell cheap, but you also buy cheap. But see how this affects the farmer, and, in a similar manner, every producer. The profit of a farmer depends on what he realises by prig above the cost of production. Now suppose a farmer's profit to arise by what he can realise above, say 40s a quarter for his wheat. When he sells for 50s. he gets 200/. a year profit—that is, by the difference between 40e., the cost of production, and 504, the price, he clears ROL If, therefore, prices in general decline one-tenth, and he sells for only 455. a quarter, his pruti: is reduced one-half—he has 1001. a year instead of 200/ But he buys for one. tenth less, that is, he can now bay with 180/. as much as LeFore cost him 2001. What then is the result? Why that he gains 20/. by buying cheap, and loses 100/. by selling cheap. The consumer goes a small advantage, the producer sustains a heavy loss. And this must be the effect to every producer in a heavily taxed country, by the forced cheapness caused by a con traction of the currency." It is impossible to resist this plain and straightfor ward appeal to the common sense of the people. Those who were so fortunate as to hear the eloquent address of Mr. TWELLS will see that there is some thing of even greater importance to their interests than any addition to the price of their produce that could be caused by protective imposts. They will also look to that t c h e a r t ta o in f leedh sum mey of f n m tu o r n n ey be w co il m l e be pu re r- - I chse quired to liquidate the rents, rates, and texas, and other charges to which every farmer is liable, and the pro fits of the manufacturer of corn, cattle, &c., must nec essarily be m a t er i a ll y diminished by any appre ciation in the value of money which will require givenlarger amount to be in satisfaction of these demands. But we are not trust in g to theory merely on thi s subject. During the late war agriculture flourished, and those engaged in the pursuits—inde e d all the industrious classes enjoyed the utmost pros perity, notwithstanding the enormous weight of taxation under which they suffered. NAPOLEON was termed " the farmer's friend 1" because remunerative prices were obtained during his reign. how was this ? Is war, then, so desira ble in itself, and does it necessarily lea 1 to such re • sults ? No ; but there was a sound system of paper currency —a circulating medium adequate to the wants and exigencies of the country, and that bless ing more than ccunterbalanced the evils of war. We trust" that the Rev. Gentleman will continue his valuable exertions ; and to others similarly circum stanced we would say, take an example from the energy and enthusiasm exhibited by Mr. TWELLS ; look to the effect of his effortr, and . do ye also en deavour to advance the cause, which has" truth for its basis and justice for its end." MONUMENT TO WORDSWORTII.—It is satisfactory to us to be enabled to announce that upwards of 9001. have already been subscribed towards a befitting monument to this distinguished poet. —Art-Journal' THE SUN, LONDON, THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of Saturday and yesterday. The Mohiteur publishes the following official an nouncement : " M. DE PERSIGNY, who recently left for London, is not charged with any mission from the Government. M. DE PERSIGNY has repaired to London on his own private business." Communicated by the Minister for Foreign Affairs. The Procureur-General of the Republic has in stituted proceedings against M. COURTOIS, the writer of an article in the ,Corsaire, and against M. LAU RENT, the gran of that journal, for the publication of an article, entitled " L'Ere des Cesars," which is alleged to contain a libel against the person of the PRESIDENT of the Republic. The Corsaire is a Le gitimatitl journal, and the incriminated article bears the same title as the recently published work of M. RoisitEu, in which the ex-editor of the defunct Napoleon represents the rule of a Dictator elected by I'retorian guards as the best of all possible govern ments. M. FRANCOIS NETTEMENT publishes an article in the Opinion Publique, the organ of Legitimacy, de tailing the circumstences of the agreement entered into between LOUIS NAPOLEON and the Legitimatist leaders, in 1848, to secure first his election to the Presidency, and secondly the support of the Legitima tist party for his government. The writer tells the public that the first Ministry of Lours NAPOLEON re sulted from negocietiuns with the Legitimatist party, and he calls to mind a meeting which was held of the leaders of the Legitimatist party, where the Duc Da NOAILLES addressed the President by his title of Prince, while the latter never failed to say Monsieur le Due. At this meeting it was settled that M. DE FALLoux should take office, sup ported by the Right, to whom were ceded the Pub lic Instruction Bill and the expedition to Rome. It will be remembered that in December, 1848, the Roman Republic had not been proclaimed, conse• quently either M. NETTEMENT'S account is an impu dent fabrication, or the assertion of M. Da FALLOLIX, in the tribune, as to the object of the expedition, the reasons for ;undertaking it, and the time at which they had become convinced of its necessity, were utterly untrue. We leave these " honest and moderate" gentlemen of the party of "religion and order" to determine among themselves where the falsehood rests, but that falsehood there is somewhere is abun • dantly evident, the statement of M. DE NETT EMENT, who has hitherto borne a high character, being in di rect contradiction with those of M. DE Fau.oux, the head of the parti-pretre, the apologist of the massacre of St. BARTHOLOMEW, and the panygerist of the Holy The review on Thursday at Versailles went off without any disturbance. The PRESIDENT has an nounced his intention of reviewing, on the 2d of Oc tober, all the infantry of the garrison of Paris, and on the 10th all the cavalry. The National gives the following piquant account of the provision made by the PRESIDENT for the refreshment of the troops after the review of Thursday : " Between the acts we had precisely the same inter lude as on Sun:Jay. Twelve loaves, tweive sausages, , twelve bottles of ehampegue, and a large bundle of cigars were distributed among every twenty-five men ; and at the risk of b ing accused of giving a puff, we will iof,rm our readers that the corks of the champaigno had the seal of the house of Augusto Bontiril. Are the houses of Moet and Jacquesson in disgrace ? In after wards filing past the President, the ardour of the troops was very great, and on their return to Versailles the observers • had an opportunity of settling the ques tion whether the authorities wen) not wrong in forget ing, when organizng the regimeatal schools, to conse crate a chatter to the influence of sausages, of cigars, and of champagne on the appearance of troops, w hen on their march. 13 sides this, we may state that this sort of exercise is not altogether displeasing to the troops. The only ono that has to complain is the cashier at the Elyies; bat M. Fould is so complaisant, that he will find the means of slipping this little supplementary demand among the expenses of the campaign. And why should the Assembly refuge it ? Does it not fall within the sys tem of the Presidential policy that Louis Napoleon should be less a warrior than—a restaurateur The Legitimatists are evidently more alarmed at thew proceedings than they choose to confess. The Union, like a schoolboy, who whistles in the dark to show he is not afraid, betrays its misgivings by its affectation of courage. It thus terminates a long article on the reviwa, ‘• Some regiavnts, at the termination of a military Fite, fill the air with cries which appear to be the nre runners of an event lonz since prepred. We believe hat the p nons who think so d , eeive , themselves, and ei.lumato the army. We are sulli2ivutiy confident that such is the case, to venture to foretel that, on the day ,shen the Assembly shall have proofs that a conspiracy is formed ngainat her, she has only to issue a decree, and these same soldier:, who filled the air with enthu siastic cries, would conduct the conspirators to Val :ernes. We are persuaded that people are too coon alarmed. The President has, to the pr,sent mornout, contradicted by his conduct the intentions attributed to him. He has sworn to the Constitution ; he hopes th:,t it will bo modified; but if it should not be so, we still eliego that ha would keep his oath. If he were to act itherwise, he would cause France and himself to incur the greatest dangers. After having deyotel his namo (0 the re-establishweat of urd r, and after having pre served society by his good conduct, it would be sad were ite to tarnish his fame by an extravagance." The Court of Assizes on Friday commenced the trial of 31 persons on the charge of having formed a secret association for the destruction of the Republic and the restoration of the Monarchy of the elder BOURBONS. The chief of the society was a person named ADJUTOR DUBISON, who is in flight ; three of the accused were absent ; and, of the 27 others who appeared, 18 had been admitted to bail. The indict ment stated that the authorities, having obtained in formation of the existence of the society, caused papers to be seized at the residence of persons impli cated at Rouen, Amiens, Paris, Havre, and Caen. In all those places separate societies existed, but it ap peared they were all branches of one great association, under one common direction ; that they communi cated with each other by means of letters or travellers, and corresponded with a chief residing abroad. In each town in which a society was established there were chiefs charged to incorporate as many members as possible, to draw up lists of all the members, and to send those lists to the common chief. According to the zeal displayed by the persons thus enrolling, different grades corre spending to those in the army were conferred, on them, and many of them were paid in proportion. To secure members money was frequently given. Most of the members were workmen in need of pecuniary assistance. The funds for this purpose were sent front abroad, chiefly from Brussels. In addition to the money actually paid more was promised ,regu larly in case of war • recompenses of money and places were also off e r e d in the name of the patron (the Duke DE BORDEAUX) to those who might dis tinguish themselves in any demonstration which might become necessary, and pensions were promised to the families of those who might fall. Thou g h the papers seiz?d l e ft no d ou bt th a t t h e d es i gn c f t h e eou• spirators was the elevation to the throne of the Due DE BORDEAUX, it did not appear that they bad come to an agreement as to the period or mode of action; so that the offence of the accused did not amount to what the law describes as a plot, but simply to that of having formed a secret politicA society. Ne eerthe less, it appeared that the societies were all constructed on a military basis, an I all the members were bound to obey their chiefy, who in the ir turn were under the direct orders of the supreme chief. Tee list represented the number of adherents to the societies in the different 'owns to be very considerable, but a great many of the names were, it appeared, inserted merely to make a show. Accordingly, only those persons who were proved by the correspondence to have taken a direct part in the proceedings were subjected to prosecution. The indictment afterwards went on to show the part taken in the societies by the principal accused. Du- BISSON was proved to he the chief of all ; it was he who corresponded with the chiefs—at Caen, Rouen, Amiens, Paris, and Havre—who praised their ac tivity, or blamed their supiness, remitted the funds, and promised the recompenses. The replies of the accused to the interrogatories threw little light on the affair; some of them pretended that the society was merely for the defence of order ; others that they lid not know what its object was ; others explained th,2 meaning of the terms used in the correspondence ; others stated the sums of money they had received or distributed; and one or two declared that they had only joined the association because they were paid. The proceedings terminated on Saturday in the conviction of MM. JOUBIN and RIVERAIN, without extenuating circumstances, and of MM. VICTOR MARIE, PROSPERE DE BREMAND, BERTHOUD, and faoedf civil rights with extenuating cir cums t ances . - they were all condemned t o s i x mon th s ' imprison ment, and on the two f o rmer th ere was i n fli cte d, i n i a gh fl t n s f e o o r f francs th lo e o termof each, oney year a deprivation The Presse says : "It may, perhaps, be remembered that cries of Vive fa Republique r uttered on May 2, at the review in ho nour of that anitivi - ..rsary, led to the dissolution of the artillery of the National Guar I of Bayoune, and next to the rnignation, in consequence. of a certain number f members of the Municipal Council of the town. "flelse latter have just been replaced, and a majority of 1 (125 votes to 625 has given the advantage to the whole denocra..ic list. At the head of it are the captain of the company the councillors who had resigned, and the superior officers of the National Guard who had followed their example."

DE 'runt, Prussian Minister at Cassel. It i 4 dated St,ptember 23 : "The Prussian Government plainly disapproves of the proceedings of M. de Hasenpflug, which it considers as a fligrant attempt against the Constitution of the country. The Prussian Government declares that it con siders the resistance of the people and of the public functionaries to these measures to be perfectly legal, and that there is no other course open for the Elector than to retrace his steps, and to proceed in the path of the Constitution." Orders have been given to concentrate Prussian troops on the frontiers of Hesse, and Prussia will op pose by force the attempt of any power to invade Hesse in obedience to orders from the Diet of Frank fort, the authority of which it does not acknowledge. A letter from Wiesbaden of the 25th says : " The re-opening of the States took place to, day. The Chamber of Deputies adopted unanimously a proposition from the Deputy Leisler, to the effect that the Chamber paid homage to the noble attitude of the people of Hesse in its struggle to maintain the Constitution." The Manheim journal announces that no more Baden troops will leave for Prussia. The Cologne Gazette states on its side, on the authority of a letter from Kinheirn, that the Baden Government had demanded that the Prussian troops in Baden should be decreased by 8,000 men, according to a stipulation of .the treaty concluded with Prussia. In place of these 8,000 men, the Baden troops which have not yet left would be retained. All the Baden troops which have left for Prussia have been placed in garrison in Westphalia. A letter from Stutgard of the 24th in the Cologne Gazette says :—" The result of the greatest number of the elections is known. As was to be Expected, only a small part of the population took part in them. With very few exceptions, the deputies elected belong to the democratic party, the Ministerial candidates remaining in minority. The party of the March Mi nistry has not either obtained any great success. N. DE WAECHTER SPITLER has been appointed Minister of Public Instruction and Worship, by an ordinance dated yesterday." The Government of Mecklenburgh-Schwerin has expelled from Schwerin the Members of the Assem bly of the States, who had proceeded to that place en the 24th, on the convocation of their President, M. WIGGER, to protest against the sentence which de clared that Assembly dissolved, and the constitution abolished. N. WIGGER received orders to leave Schwerin in two hours, and the Deputies who had gone to the place of meeting, were taken to the police office by gendarmes. It is not, however, supposed that these acts can have the same consequences at Schwerin as at Cassel. In the sitting of the College of Princes at Berlin on the 25th, the President announced that the Grand Duke of MECKLENBURG-SCHWERIN had formally re fused to accept the invitation of the Cabinet of Vienna to send a Minister to Frankfort. Accounts from Vienna of the 28th state that the Austrian Correspondence publishes a warlike article against Prussia in regard to Hessian affairs, and that the Austrian funds had fallen in consequence. The Post Aznpt Gazette of Frankfort publishes the proctocol of the second sitting of the Federal Assem bly of the 14th, in which the committee, charged to examine the proposition of the Austrian Government, to confide to a neutral commission the administration of the federal property, makes its report. The com mittee recommends to have the proposition rejected, as impossible to be executed. However, at the Fame time, in order to pay homage to the conciliatory views of the Assembly, it invites it to declare that it will examine with all proper attention and impar tiality any proposition male by the Austrian Go vernment, of a nature to put an send to the difficulties existiog relative to a neutral commission. This pro pwition was unanimously adopted. DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES. The Danish Minister of the Marine Department has published a report of the action between the steamer Geyser and the Holstein gun-boats on the Mb, off the western coast of Schleswig :—" The steamer Geyser, Captain Wulff, which was stationed at the mouth of the Hewer to cut off the retreat of the insurgent gun-boats to the south, observed at ten o'clock on the morning of the 17:11 the steamer Kiel, with three gun-boats in tow, steering towards the south. The Geyser went northwards to meet them, and at about eleven o'clock opened its fire on the enemy's vessels from a distance of 1,000 yards, which was immediately returned. The Geyser wore round and followed the enemy, who kept on their course to the south, under a- sharp can nonade on both sides. After three-quarters of an hour's fighting the largest gun on board the Geyser was rendered unserviceable by a shot, and another gun, an 18-pounder, was dis mounted. The Geyser, therefore, did not continue the pursuit, but turned broadside to the enemy, and kept up a fire on him as long as he was within range. At this time the smoke of another steamer, supposed to be the Vildanden, with Danish gun-boats in tow, was perceived to the north, and Captain Wulff, re solved to cease the attack on an enemy in greater force, and steered towards our gun-beats, to try if possible to take them in tow, and come up with the enemy again before evening. But the current and the stream kept both the steamer and the gun-boats beck, so that it became too late to follow the enemy, who in the meantime had gained a considerable dis tance in advance ; our gun-boats, therefore, were prevented any part in the action. The Ginjured but that a few days will damages. Of the crew ten li,ylsufficeeris not fr to u repair s o e p takingair amuchl men were wounded, of whom one afterwards died. It is believed that the enemy's vessels must have suf. , fered severely, as the cannonade was within a short range." The Independance of Brussels has the following from Hainburgh, dated the 22c1:—" For some days the negotiations bets een Denmark on the one hand, and the Grand Duke d'Oldenburgh and the Great Powers of Europe on the other, to definitively regu late the question of the succession to the throne of Denmark, leave been going on actively. If, as everything indicates, the present King should per sist in his design of resigning, and his old uncle, Prince Ferdinand, having announced the same in tentions, it is scarcely doubtful that the crown will devolve to the dynasty of the Grand Duke of Oldenburg. The chances of Prince Emilius of Hesse, son-in-law of the Emperor Nicholas, to ascend the throne of Denmark appear at present definitively set aside; but, in the eventuality of the present Grand Duke of Oldenburg being called to occupy the throne, it is probable that Prince Peter of Olden burg, now a general in the service of Russia, and one cf the favourites of the Emperor, will come as Regent to rule over that grand duchy. Hostilities in Schleswig have for some days been confined to partial combats at sea between some gun-boats of Holstein and some light vessels of Denmark. These encounters have had for result the occu pation of the island of Foehr by the troops of this latter power. The Gefion frigate, occupied by a Prussian detachment, and stationed in the port of Eckernforde, suffered much in the combats of the 12th. She received several broadsides from the Danish vessels, which were firing on the town to drive out the Holsteiners. A shell having burst near the powder-magazine, the vessel narrowly es caped being blown up. It appears evident that on the attack the Danish vessels made great efforts to burn this fine frigate rather than leave it in the pos session of the Germans. It is now known that Col. Latour-du-Pin, whom the journals have several times killed, commands the third division of the Danish army, having his head-quarters at Friedrick stadt, near Ostenfeldt. RUSSIA. The Journal de St. Petersbourgh of the 17th an nounces the nomination of Baron DE AIEYENDOEFF, Elroy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of Russia at Berlla, as Consul-General at the Court of Vienna in place of the Count DE MUDEM, recalled, it is said, at his own request. The same journal an non7-_ , ce* that M. DE BACHERACHT, Consul-General and Secretary of the Russian Legation at Hamburgh, has been appointed Consul-General of Russia at 13:ussels, being replaced by M. DE KOUDRIAFSIIY, Second Secretary of Embassy at London. ITALY. The Giornale di Roma, of the 19th, publishes a Papal motu proprio, instituting a commission of hos pitals, and consolidating all the hospitals of the State into one institution, by subjecting them to uniform rules of conduct and community of interests. A letter from Piacenza, of the 19;b, in the Cor riere Mercantile of Genoa, confirms the statement that the Duke is fortifying the citadel of Parma, and erecting an immense squqre tower to cornanind the to icn. IL h,s encroached th vizll digging a wide ditch. Tne University buildings have been transformed into barracks, and the same fate awaits the late college of the nobility and two mona=feries of nuns. M. FERDINAND BARROT, the French Ambassador at Turin, has communicated to the Marquis D'AzEGmo, the Piedmontese Prime Minister, that General DE LA huts had instructed M. LUCIEN MURAT to offer his services to the Court of Rome for the settlement of the differences between Rome and Sardinia. The rumour of the recal of Signor PINELLI from Rome is contradicted by the Croce di Savoia: SEPTEMBER 3O, 1850. THE LEVANT MAIL. We have received Athens papers to the 19th of September, but they contain no news of any interest. The Archdukes FERDINAND and CHARLES, brothers of the Emperor of AUSTRIA, had arrived at Patres, after having visited ditre.rcut points of the Pclopon nesus. On the 15th they paid a visit to the Queen of GREECE at Athens, and were still there when the packet left. The anniversary of the. 15th of September (the revolution of 1843) was c:3lebrated at Athens with the usual rejoicing. Everything passed off quietly. RETURN OF THE COURT FROM 13 ALMOR AL.—lt has now been arranged that the Royal Family will leave Bal moral for the south on the morning of Thursday, the 10th of October. The intention originally was to leave on the sth, but her Majesty has been so delighted with her Highland home, that she has resolved to prolong her stay to the period mentioned. Her Majesty will arrive in Edinburgh about 7 o'clock on the evening in question ; and, as it will be dark at that hour, the road from the North British Railway station to Holyrocd Palace will be lighted with coloured lamps. Her Majesty, it is said, will depart from Edinburgh on the morn ing of Saturday, the 12th. MOVEMENTS 01' TRANSATLANTIC MAIL STEAM SHIPS. —The Royal Mail steamship Europa, Captain Lott, sailed from Liverpool on Saturday, at noon for New York direct, with the usual mails, a large freight, and 126 pas sengers. LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY.—Toro fires occurred in this town last night, one involving the destruction of a consider. able amount of property, and the other loss of life. The extensive cilworks of Messrs. Bankcroft and Co., in Upper Frederick-street, were burnt to the ground, and it is stated that the stock is not ensured. The other tire, which was less extensive, occurred at a small inn near Dale-street, and a child, four years old, was burnt in its bed. REMOVAL OF PRISONERS FROM TOTHILL-FIELDS PlliSoN.—This morning, at five o'clock, the removal of all the adult male prisoners from Tothill.fields prison to the House of Correction, commenced with a view of exchange, so that Tothill-fields prison, which is being enlarged for the purpose, may be converted into a model prison for females and juveniles. The number of prisoners removed was between 600 and 700. They were conveyed manacled in the police vans and several of the ordinary street omnibuses. Each carriage was guarded by turnkeys and officers, well armed, and a strong body of police kept the whole of the line be tween the prisons, so that an efficient force could have been raised had there been any attempt at rescue. THE ATTACK ON Mr. CURETON.—I3 addition to the sum of Z.O/. reward offered by Mr. Cureton for the disco very and apprehension of the persons who made the murderr ous attack upon him, and succeeded in robbing him of a large quantiy of ancient coins, the Government have offered a further reward of 401. for the apprehension of the offenders. It is not supposed that the robbers could be very well ac quainted with the circumstances of the house, or of the habits of Mr. Cureton, since they left behind them a considerable quantity of gold coins and other valuables, and only took with them the old silver coin and other articles of lesser value, although they had the field all to themselves after having reduced their victim to complete and utter helpless' , es. CHARGE OF MURDER.—Yesterday two privates of the 15th Regiment were landed at Gravesend, from the ship R. Seppings, brought from Colombo, as prisoners, eharged with the murder of a policeman some time previous to their enlistment in the regiment. Their names are Am!dew Daly and James M'Fadden. They were handed over to the cus tody of the police. IMPROVEMENT IN PALL-MALL.—It really appears surprising, in a country like this, that with all their suggested improvements they cannot carry out one that presents itself with so few obstacles, and would be attended with so little expense, and form one of the finest vistas in the metropolis, and at once an eligible site for the marble arch. I allude to the continuation of Pall-mall by a fine avenue of trees from Stafford-house to Constitution-bill, placing the marble arch at the end of Cleveland-row, looking direct into the Park. The idea is one that suggests itself at once en looking at the plan of proposed improvements in St. James's Park. —Corre spondent of the Builder. Second thoughts are the adopted children of expe rience.—Eliza Cook's Journal. The Marylebone Vestry held their usual weekly meeting on Saturday, when a committee was appointed to inquire and report on the means or propriety c f providing labour for able-bodied paupers. A complaint was made by Mr. Nicolay that Mr. Boothby, a ratepayer, bad been re fused compensation by the guardians fur breakage of his windows by a pauper, although Mr. Potter, a guardian, had been paid the amount of similar damage, and the officers of the parish were paid when their windows were broken by angry paupers. After some discussion, a resolution was passed that the board of guardians should be asked whether they had paid for damage done to Mr. Potter's windows. A committee was appointed to co-operate with the parish of St. Pancras in obtaining a reform in the commission of sewers, after which the vestry adjourned. FACTORY LABOUR.—To-day (Monday) a provi sion in the New Factory Act (13 and 14 Vict., cap. 54) will take effect. Power is given by the eth section to employ young persons and females above the age of eighteen years from seven in the morning until seven in the evening from the 30J1 of September to the Ist of April under certain re gulations. BURIAL OF THE POOR.—This day (Monday), an enactment in a Poor-law Act, recently passed, will come into force. Former Acts, charging the maintenance and burial of poor persons upon the common funds of unions, are further continued until the adth of September next year. THE GREAT FIRE IN THE CITY.—The fire in Mark lane, which broke out on Thursday morning week, was far from being entirely extinguished at 7 o'clock last evening. The firemen were even at that hour obliged to discharge quantities of water upon the fire to prevent it from rising. The hot water from the ruins still continues to penetrate the arch of Messrs. Cunliffe's and Dobson's wine -cellars, in which an immense stock of wine in wood and bottles is deposited. At one period the heat was as high as 74 degrees, and it was feared that the whole of this extensive stock would be rendered worthless. The fire engines having been engaged, however, far several days and nights in pumping cold air into the cellars, the temperature last evening was reduced as low as 67 degrees, so that hopes are now en tertained that the contents will be recovered with trifling in jury. The whole of the extensive stock of wine belonging to Messrs. Jones, the wine-merchants, whose cellars ex tend under the ruins in Mark-lane, has been removed, which was exceedingly fortunate, for when one of the lofty walls fell the weight was so great as to carry ia a portion of the arch, and, had the contents of the cellar not been removed previously, the whole must have been destroyed. Some thousands of persons visited the ruins during the day, and it required a strong muster of police to keep them out of dan ger. From the examination already made, the surveyors to the fire-office entertain very little hope of being able to save much property from the ruins of Messrs. Hayter and Howell's premises, the heat being still so great that it is feared everything will be totally consumed. The ruins, where cooled, present a most singular appearance. Immense pieces of iron, slates, bottles, and stonework are fused toge ther into misshapen masses, whilst the large iron water pipes and iron cables are melted, and have run down the walls, as if they bad been formed of lead. The Corn-Exchange has mow been so far repaired as to be fit for transacting the usual business in it without the least apprehension of danger The fire in Mark-lane presents a scene of ruin, looked down upon from some of the neighbouring houses, which serves to give an idea of that "sth Sept. 1666," when Pepys, who lived in this very Seething-lane, wrote, " about two in the morning my wife calls me up and tells me of new cries of fire, it being come to Barking Church, which is at the bottom of our lane." The Corn ,siarket, rebuilt by Mr. George Smith in 1835, had a narrow escape of entire destruc tion. The whole of this neighbourhood is deeply interezting, looked at with knowledge. In this Seething-lane, first Sidon line, according to Stow, and then Sything-lane, the old Navy office stood. According to the Audit-office Enrolments, quoted in Cunningham's " Hand-book," on the 17th of July, 1788, "Sir Wm. Chambers, the architect, received the sum of 11,503/., being the purchase money agreed with the Lords Commissioners of his Majesty's Treasury for the premises where the late Navy-office stood."—Builder. The absence of past labours doubles present plea sures.—Eliza Cook's Journal. VALUABLES BELONGING TO THE NEPAULESE PRINCE.—On Saturday, in the Westminster County Court, an action was brought by the plaintiff, Baseden, a tailor, residing at No. 6, Wimpole street, against the defendant, Hanson, a button manufacturer, for trespass, by unlawfully entering the plaintiff's premises, and demanding property entrusted to his charge of the value of 200,0001, by the Ne paulese Ambassador. It appeared from the plaintiff 's state ment that he had been employed by the Nepaulese Ambas sador to repair a cap and belt richly studded with diamonds and other precious gems, worth 200,000/., and while this va luable ornament was in his possession the defendant came one day while he was absent from home, accompanied by a policeman, and demanded the cap and belt in the name of the Prince. The plaintiff's daughter, who was at home, re fused to give up the property, and the defendant and the policeman waited some hours, till his return. The plaintiff then went to the Prince, when he was told that no instruc tions had been given by him for the interference of the police. The plaintiff said he had been much injured in his buiiness by the occurrence. The defendant stated that he was ac quainted with Morrant, the ambassador's servant, who called upon him to ascertain the plaintiff's address, in order that he might get the cap and belt for his master. He (de fendant) then accompanied Morrant to the plaintiff's house, but he had taken no further part in the affair. The judge having summed up, the jury returned a verdict for the plain tiff, damages 51., with costs. Notice of motion for a new trial was given. DONCASTER RACES.—Some difference of opinion has prevailed as to the number of spectators on the race ground on the Leger day; and it is certainly a matter of difficulty to arrive at a correct conclusion. It is generally computed that six persons can stand on a square yard of ground. There are 4,840 square yards in an acre. Multiply this area by six, we have 29,040. Presuming that if the whole mass had been packed together they would have co vered six acres of ground, the number would amc.unt to 165,240, a number which, so far from being exaggerated, is under the mark. The gross receipts of the Grand Stand for the present and last four years have been as follows :-1846, 2,473/. ; 1847, 2,2691. ; 1843, 2,208/. ; 1819, 1,9661. ; ISSO, 2,8911. H ence it appears that the last meeting, by overtop ping the great Sir Tatton Sykes's year, has been the most successful in this point of view ever known.---Doncaster Ga:ette. USWORTH COLLIERY AGAIN —Another explosion took place in Little Usworth Colliery, at nine o'clock on Monday night—it is supposed from a lighted candle coining in contact with an accumulation of gas in the upper part of t h e sea m. The explosion took place in the Low Main. The men were working on the (in this district) new system called " long wall." The colliery is now, however, laid off, owing to the men refusing to work in the new fashion. Edward Whitfield and Robert' Johnson were dangerously burnt; and William Oswald, Samuel Gilroy, and John Semple, severely. Gilroy is the father of the youth who lost his life by the for mer exploeion.—Gateshead Observer. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. orTY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The Mexican advises are to the 19th August. The Government is stated to havo a decided majority in Congress. The Royal Mail steamer from the West Indies brings late intelligence from Jamaica and South America, but nothing from the Leeward Islands, whence the corre spondence will come by the Trent steamer, duo hare on the 4th of next month, with the Mexican letters. Li Ja maica there had been heavy rains, and they had even injured the roads to some extent. Business was unusually dull. The Cotton crops were getting on and if a sufficiency of labour could be obtained, the plantations would be extended in all directions with every prospect of success. A treaty of commerce had been entered into between St. Domingo and Great Britain. The Panama accounts inform us that large quantities of specie were still coming forward, and the West India steamer which brings this news has 252 ,0001. on board. Cape of Good Hope letters of July 25 refer in terms of disappointment to the fact of the patent not having arrived up to that data by virtue of which the Council is to enter upon the consideration of the new constitution of a Government for the Cape. Advices from Calais report great activity in commerce. No less than 140 vessels had arrived within a very short period from Norway and the Baltic, and the timber movement was especially brisk. At Amsterdam on the 28th instant very little business was done in the Funds, and there was no particular change in the prices of Dutch stock. The Two-and-a- Flalf per Cents. were 57 1.16; Spanish Three per Cents. were rather offered. In the Frankfort Bourse on the 27th instant Austrian Bonds were 80 to 4.
