And the one that remained on was not Stephenson's? —No; but I consider Stephenson's engines as safe as any on the Brighton line. Mr. Miller, surgeon of Emsworth, described techni cally the nature of the injuries which the deceased had sustained. Mr. F. Hutchins, resident engineer, stated that the line was in perfect working order. The surgeon having stated that there were slight hopes of the stoker's recovery, the inquest was adjourned for three weeks. TO BE HAD OF ALL BOOKSELLERS. MR. COLBURN'S NEW PUBLICATIONS. NOW READY. I.

The obituary of 1847 promises to be emblazoned with many illustrious names. DANIEL O'CONNELL ?has scarcely passed away from amongst us, when we are startled by intelligence of the sudden death of THOMAS Citai.sszas. Another eminent benefactor of the million has perished. The lamentations of Ireland orer her great Patriot are responded to by the lamen tations of Scotland over her great Moralist. With lboth do we sympathise from the innermost recesses of our heart. Through the haze of death we recog mise the' oratorical and liberative glory of O'ComN.ELL ; C. l through the base of death, too, we perceive the afENirS equable light of the celebrity of CHALMERS. Their hearts may be motionless, but their fame cannot be extinguished. THOMAS CHALMERS is generally believed to have been born somewhere about the year 1780, in a little village called Anstruther, situated on the right margin as you sail southwards up the estuary of the Forth. The birthplace of this eminent man— an insignificant fishing place—is, consequently, re garded as among those spots which have been sancti fied by the presence of the childhood of genius. Every endeavour seems to have been made for the development of those seeds of wisdom which, we maintain, with all deference to the immortal Locxx, were visibly im planted by Paw/IDE:we in his fruitful and capacious intellect. From the first there was manifestly an innate tendency towards the acquisition of know ledge and the exercise of virtue on the part of THOMAS CHALMERS ; that tendency was assiduously encouraged by his scholastic and spiritual instructors, at the University of St. Andrew's. Such were the distinguished indications of his ability while a student in that northern academy of learning, that he was frequently selected as a mathematical assistant at the classes of Professor VILANT. On his presentation, in 1803, to the incumbency of Bilmany, THOMAS CHAL MERS was a living contradiction to that assertion of Professor PLATFAIR that the Scottish clergy was unadorned by the combination of rhetorical fluency and profound erudition, graceful declamation and bookish enlightenment. From the first moment of his appearance in the pulpit of Kilmany Church the renown of CHALMERS resounded through the whole of the island. The music of his tongue, rising from the golden chambers of his imagination, and harmonised by the breathings of his morality, entranced his hearers, took their judgments by storm, ravished their senses as it were with the utterances of a prophet. Dr. CHALMERS, however, was immeasurably greater as a moralist than he was as an orator. It was by the combination of those two marvellous qualifications that he acquired such supreme influence over his con temporaries, and elicited so much of the admiration of mankind. As an orator and as a moralist, Dr. CHALMERS must hold for ever a conspicuous place among the promoters of civilisation and the practical benefactors of the human family. His greatness in this respect is undoubted and permanent. Nor were the efforts of this extraordinary man re stricted within the limits of oral tuition ; as an ethical and metaphysical writer he has assumed a bright and enviable position. His literary compositions are in effect essentially of a declamatory character, they in dicate unmistakably the spontaneous torrent of elo quence that rushed perpetually through his mind— the eloquence of the very conception of his thoughts, and the eloquence with which those thoughts were habitually expressed. Whether he indicated his ideas by the movement of the lip or of the pen the language was always resonant with wisdom, it was occasionally embellished by rhetorical decorations, and was invariably inculcative of generous and ennobling principles. Upon the remarkable ecclesiastical movement which in 1843 attached so much of mingled obloquy and applause to the name of Dr. CHALMERS, we shall say nothing. It is scarcely possible to conceive, however, that this virtuous and learned man was actu ated in that movement by any but the purest motives and the loftiest aspirations. Tnowts CHALMERS might, from the fallibility of human nature, unwittingly fall into a mistake—he could never designedly be guilty of any dereliction of duty. Gifted beyond most men in the capacity and bril liancy of his intelligence, THOMAS CHALMERS was in like manner gifted with a sublime elevation of pur pose. His memory is his panegyric. The quondam "Reproductive Employment Com mittee " held their first meeting at the Rotunda on Tuesday under their new title of the " Irish Coun cil." There was a fair attendance of persons repre senting every shade and variety of politics—the Orangeman and Conservative, the Whig and Radical, the Old Ireland and Young Ireland repealer. The advantages that may be derived from the association are wholly dependent on the man ner in which its members will act, on the fidelity with which they may adhere to the lead ing principle of their society. If they will honestly and conscientiously waive all selfish and party con siderations; if they will, irrespective of political or religious differences, cordially and energetically co operate together for the good of their common coun try, for her elevation in the social scale, and the ame lioration of her children's condition, their exertions will be valuable indeed, and greatly tend to the attainment of the desired object. But, on the other hand, if they suffer bickerings or discussions to pre vail, no matter what may be the exciting causes, if they endeavour to promote the interests of any class in preference to the general welfare of all, their meetings will be productive of evil in place of good, and it would be well if they had never met. There are certain topics which, if at all intro duced, must inevitably lead to contentions, but there is a wide field for their deliberation without trespassing on this debateable land. The line of demarcation is clearly indicated. It must be manifest to the dullest comprehension what questions are certain to call up an opponent and to excite angry discussion in an Irish society, and all such questions should be most religiously eschewed, and if for a moment brought forward in the heat of argument, should forthwith be suppressed by the authority of the chair. We are not amongst those squeamish and nervous persons who think that there is danger to the institu tions of the country from regular and periodical dis cussion with respect thereto. Those which are really sound will bear any ordeal to which they may be subjected. However vigorous the attack may be, a corresponding defence will be forthcoming, if they are based on equity and justice, and deserving of public support. Whatever may be the case, truth will eventually be elicited, and more accurate views produced from the arguments used on either side. -1:11c glorious triumph of free trade the abolition of LI2 gigantic and pestilential monopoly that so long brooded over the nation, that fettered our commerce and impaired our energies, was owing to the cogent reaso ling, the convincing proofs adduced by the members of the League at their meetings, and wafted on the wings of the press throughout the length and breadth of the land, which clearly pointed out and established the injurious results of, and the gross injustice perpetuated by, an adherence to the old and now, happily, obsolete system. We have often known the most beneficial effects flow from public meetings and public discussions, but rarely, if ever, anything baneful or injurious. Publicity, however, is essentially necessary ; the moment privacy is resorted to, under any circumstances, or on any pre text, that moment the usefulness of the body has de parted; you may be certain that some insidious proposition is about to be brought forward which will not bear the light of which its advocates, and supporters are at heart ashamed. The Irish Council in deciding that the press shall be admitted to all their proceedings, have given the best guarantee of the purity of their motives and intentions; and so long as they continue to do so—so long as everything brought forward is open to the world, and subject to the comments of the journalists, there can be no danger from the indiscretions to which all men are subject. For a long series of years the fatal rule, " Divide et impera" has been acted on towards Ireland with fatal success. Her weakness has been chiefly owing to the differences of her chil dren, to the blind and reckless hostility they have exhibited, and the animosities which they have felt towards each other. If these feelings can be altered, if they can be induced to regard each other as labourers in the same vineyard, to support and strengthen their mutual exertions, so long as they are directed to the same end and object—to regard each other as natives of the same great family, with be nignity and kindness—the chief difficulty that has hitherto retarded the regeneration of Ireland will be obviated, and a fair prospect afforded for her ultimate Prosperity and welfare. Mr. COBDEN M.P., has made his farewell speech in Italy. T he inhabitants of Turin were foiled in their eager desire to receive their distinguished vi sitor in the same magnificent manner in which he had been entertained in other cities of their beautiful •ountry, owing to their having no public building ontaining a hall or apartment of sufficient dimensions contain the numerous admirers who were anxious celebrated. oouutry ose a. gree t the preeence of oF Nevertheless the influential nobles did their utmost, and voluntarily invited sixty guests to a banquet, which they had determined upon giving in honour of the great commercial regenerator of the nineteenth century. What a reflective contrast is here pre sented between the trans-Alpine country and our own ! Little better than a twelvemonth since the greater portion of the English aristocracy indulged in every species of virulence against their native manufacturer who, by his seal, energy, and com manding ability, directed the movements of the gigantic League for the overthrow of the most iniquitous monopoly that ever oppressed an en lightened people. No effort was spared to make us believe that the powerful machinery which he had developed, and so successfully controlled, was highly unconstitutional, as well as to impute the most sordid motives to all who had engaged themselves in the ever-memorable crusade against the corn-laws. Vain was the struggle of the Protectionists. Mr. COBDEN, conscious of the rectitude of his cause, despised every missile of petty malignancy that was hurled at him and at his devoted followers, and armed alone with the unerring weapon of pure rea son, he discomfited his antagonists at every turn, and finally reduced their stronghold to a state of complete demolition. But nothing preyed more galling to the feelings of our unbending aristocracy than that Sir ROBERT PEEL (whom, for ten long years, they had incessantly laboured to restore to power) should, in the hour of their defeat and humiliation, have " gone out of - his waY" to pass a high eulogium upon the brilliant career of the Hon. Member for Stock port. Turning our minds to what has recently passed in Italy, how different is the pic ture ! There the nobility have been foremost to pay their homage en masse to Mr. COBDEN wherever he was found among them. No artificial or miserable conventionalities of pride kept them aloof. The hum bler the birth of their guest, the more striking became the nobility of his mind. His philanthropic genius shone with greater brilliancy from not being over laid with any outward emblem of state. Others may owe their transient importance and dignity in the eyes of their fellow-men to the honorary distinctions which they have derived from the Crown, but, with Mr. COBDEN, nature had patented his no bility with her own hand. Regarding him, then, as the greatest benefactor of his age, the nobles of Turin have set their own rank in the fairest light by the public demonstration of respect and admiration which they so spontaneously made in favour of Mr. COBDEN. The Honourable Gentleman's speech was replete with his usual wisdom. His remarks always strike home. No sooner are they uttered than the judgment is convinced. What truths are contained in the follow lowing graphic sentences!— " Ever since the dose of the war the discoveries and im provements of science have been contributing towards free trade. Every steam boat had been an argument in its fa vour—every mile of railroad was a reproach to the restrictive system. Locomotives acd fiscal prohibitions were incompa tible things. Railways disdained the ancient custom-house restraints. They could not nurse their modern giant in an old- ta,hioned cradle." In an audience with the King of SARDINIA, Mr. COBDEN was 'Assured that the principles he advocated were highly approved, and in proof of the same the KING announced that reductions would be made in his tariff at the earliest possible moment. Madrid papers of the 27th have arrived. The KING still continues at the Prado, where he has been visited by his father, who had a long inter view with him, but nothing has transpired as to what passed between them. It was reported in Madrid that the KING intended going to the Escurial. The Tiempo states that it is his intention to take up his residence in the capital of one of the provinces. The QUEEN continues her daily excursions, in which she is accompanied, as usual, by her uncle and her cousin. The effects of Don FRANCISCO DE PAULA have been removed to the Royal Palace. MADRID BOLSA, MAY 27.—The Three per Cents. were done at 30 1 / 2 cash, 30 1 4 paper; the Four per Cents., 18 cash ; Five per Cents., 18% cash, 18 1 4 paper ; Debt without Interest, 57i, cash, 6 paper; Exchange on London, 49 cash. We have received the Paris papers of Tuesday. The Presse continues its attacks on the Ministry for not intervening in Spain to support French in terests. The article (which is one of a series to ap pear day by day) is well seasoned with abuse of England, her policy, her religion, and her Govern ment. Rumours of an impending change of Mi nistry still continue rife in the French capital. The National says— " According to certain journals M. Duchatel was to have returned to Paris yesterday, and to have resumed his func tions as Minister of the Interior; according to certain others he was to spend not fewer than eight or ten days at Ham bouillet. All were mistaken—M. Duchatel did not return to Paris yesterday, and he hardly passed forty-eight hours at Rambcuillef. It is probable that the air of the forest did not agree with him, for we learn that he thought right to approach the sea, and that he is at this moment at Trouville. We are assured that Trouville will not be his last station, and that before coming to Paris he will try several other places. This state of things annoys M. Guizot exceedingly; he had never greater need of a man who knows the Chamber well, and how to manage it. If he be obliged to reach the end of the session without the help of M. Duchatel, the campaign will be a severe one for him, as in the month of August next it is probable that he will, like M. Duchatel, feel the necessi.y of a change of air, and of improving the health of body and mind far from Paris." We read in the Union Monarchique : "It appears certain that the Ministry, whilst putting on airs of triumph for the very equivocal victory which it ob tained on the question of postal reform, was, at the bottom of its heart, very seriously frightened at the small and un accustomed figure of a majority of 25 votes. We learn, in fact, in the most positive manner, that after a long and pro found delibefation on the dangers of the present situation, it was decided in the last Council of Ministers that the Govern ment should endeavour to the end of the session to avoid all kinds of debates on questions of administrative and financial reform. In consequence of this resolution, it was decided that no opposition should be offered—at least to the principle of the proposition of the Hon. M. Demesmay, relative to the duty on salt, which is about to be submitted to the Chamber, and that the amendment of the Committee, adjourning the execution of the proposed measure to 1849, should be sup ported, or, if necessary, enlarged." The affair of General CUBIERES still continues to excite great attention. The report of the Committee, which is considerably advanced, will extend to more than 800 folio pages. The National says that " the Committee is determined to pursue its labours how ever high the station of the persons compromised." When the report shall have been distributed to the Peers the Chamber will assemble and discuss with closed doors the question as to whether it will be ad visable to institute ulterior proceedings. " It is announced (says the Couirier Francais) that Bou MAZA. is about to return shortly to Algeria, and that the Government has determined to confide to him the command of a body of native troops. He is, it is said, to he placed under the orders of General YESUF." Mr. CHARLES KINNAIRD SHERIDAN (son of the late THOMAS SHERIDAN, and grandson of RICHARD BRINSLEY SHERIDAN), one of the Attaches of the British Embassy at Paris, died in the hotel of the Embassy on Sunday night last, May 30, in the 30th year of his age. The Sentinelle des Pyrenees states that the Carlist General ALZAA and another Spanish refugee named PEREZ were taken into custody on Thursday last, at Bayonne. General ALZAA is said to have been in the environs of Bayonne for more than a month, and to have taken several journeys into the Guipuscoa. The Echo de r Agriculture announces a fall in the price of grain in almost all the markets of France. The Constitutionnel states that " the appearances of the forthcoming harvest are particularly fine in the department of the Eure and Loire. In the depart ments of the Meuse, the Vosges, and the Moselle likewise, the crops are magnificent, and unless some fortuitous calamity occur, the produce will not only be abundant, but the harvest particularly early."

OMNIBUS ACCIDENT.—WednEsflay, between nine and ten o'clock, Mrs Ashmead, of No. 27, Theobald's court, Aldersgate-street, was crossing St. Paul's Churchyard, near the end of Cannon street, c,irrying a female infant seven months old in her arms, when she was knocked down by an omnibus, the wheels of which passed over her ab domen. The child was also severely injured by the horses hoofs. Upwards of 50,000 persons h.tve visited the Royal Surrey Zoological Gardens since Whit Monday.

The market closed very heavily, and the improvement of %d. per lb. on American was entirely lost, although Surat and Maceio were %d. dearer. Other sorts much the same. In • the sales were comprised 3,000 bales American, at 6d. to 7 1 / 2 a, ; 2,000 Bahia at 7 1 %d. to 7 1 4 d. ; and 600 Surat, at 4d. to 4 3 A d. per lb, Shares suffered a considerable deoline, and closed heavily, although a fair business was dune. There are no later arrivals to-day from any quarter, and we may usefully embrace the opportunity to revert to local matters. We stated yesterday that the advices from the ma nufacturing districts were of a more encouraging nature. Messrs. Ferguson and Taylor state, in their report from Man chester, that " The recent change in the weather, and the rapid progress of vegetation in this country, combined with the highly favourable reports of the prospects of the con tinental harvests, have given an improved tone to this market within the past ten days. The inter vention of the Whitsuntide holidays prevented busi ness operations during the past week; but to-day there has been a marked activity, and sellers have in many instances established an advance ; the greater ease in the money market, and the declining value of breadstuffs, are a gratifying change in the right direction, and if the splendid harvest prospects continue, we may expect a speedy revival in the home and colonial demand for our manufac tures, and consequently an upward movement in prices, in aid of which latter the rates of cotton (which are steaoily progressing), and the limitation of production which still con tinges, will be found operatin g . O ur i mpress i on i s , t h at the present is a favourable time fo r i nves ti ng i n ya rn s and goods, since any decline in the value ai;pears impossible under the circumstances of the short supply of the raw material, whereas, if money be come cheaper, and the cost of food be materially reduced, which appears highly probable, capital is very likely to be attracted to our manufactures (the production of which will be limited by the deficient supply of cotton) as a l ucra ti ve spec ulation. Great interests are at stake upon the issue of the next six weeks or two months. If the weathe r con ti nue a uspicious, we have little doubt that the autumn trade will be in the highest degree satisfacto r y." Blesses. Wilkinson and Jewesbury describe the imports of produce into London last month as having been very exten sive, but as importers have been free s e ll ers , pr i ces h ave de clined. The official returns published by the Board of Trade indicate also a great incr ease i n th e i mports o f a ll ar ticles of subsistence during the th ree mon th s o f thi s year , ending with April 5, and as the consumption has also largely increased as regards most of the principal articles, including sugar, tea, and coffee, we may count upon an increased outlay on that score, which our exports do not as y et promise to meet, for they have fallen off near ly 200,0001. The decline is principally upon cotton manufactures, coals, and yarns, partly counterbalanced however by an increase in glass, iron, wool, and silk menu facturss. The English Funds have been further depressed again to day, and there have been some money sales making, although there is no particular demand for capital out of doors. The rally in corn, with the reports about the potato , disease, the heavy railway calls, and the continued distress in Ireland, added to the uncertainty about Exchequer-bills, I are all sources of present excitement and profit to the Bears.

The fortune left by the deceased. after paying all debts, only am ounts to 15.000, 000 of florins (1,480,0000. With that sum the successor to the inajorat would find it scarcely possiule to pay his brothers and sisters thelega ies bequeathed by the will. FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT NEAR WORCESTER A fatal occurrence happened on the Bristo l and Birmin g ham Railway, at Norton, near this station, on Tuesday evening, by which one life has been sacrificed and another penned. The facts, as near as they could be ascer , ained, are brieti . ) these :—Three men employed on the wor ks lay down upon the rails and , c t ua ll y w i ent to sleep, and in :hat position a luggage train coming up, two of them were run over, and the e e w n, a m s r k es i t l , llon the spot. The o ther is so severely injured that it is doubtful whether he can recover. He has been conveyed to the W nrces ter Infirmary.

ASCOT HEATH RACES. Tllliasi) The peculiar features of the Cup day at Ascot have been EC, f: F quently described, that to travel over the ground again, would be as wearisome to our readers as it would be to ourselves. We shall, therefore, offer no apology for leav:ng them to the imagination, but proceed °rice to a brief record of the occurrences of the day. The weather, as on the two previous days, was brilli antly fine, and at a p e ri o d l ong i n a d vance o f the time of starting, the gathering of all racks was immense, filling the wands, "grand" and temporary, to an overflow, and exhibiting a display of beauty and fashion that we have rarely seen excelled there was also a very good assembling of the higher classes, but in this re spect the show was inferior to what was constantly wit- nessed in the golden a. a of the turf, when such terms as "nobbling" and " making safe" had not found their way into the racing vocabulary, and when the course was the favourite resort of the aristocracy of both sexes. A few minutes after one o'clock the bell rang for clearing the course (a step that, we trust, will henceforth be deferred until after the arrival of her Majesty), and shortly after, the appearance of the royal live ries in the distance announced the approach of the Illustrious party from the Castle. The corlige consisted of eight carriages and the char a-bane presented to her Majesty by the King of the French. She was attended by the Earl of Granville and the same retinue as on Tuesday. The first carriage we. occupied by the Queen, their Royal Highnesses the Grand Duchess of Saxe Weimar, the Prince of Lucca, and the Grand Duke Constantine of Russia. In the second were the Prince Consort, his Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge, and their Serene High nesses Prince Edward of Saxe Weimar and the Prince of Leiningen. In the other carriages were the Prince Lowenstein, Prince Lichtenstein, the Duke of Welling ton, Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch, Duchess of Sutherland, the Duke of Norfolk, Lord and Lady John Russell, Marquis and Marchioness of Clanricarde and the Lady Hubert de Burgh, Earl Spencer, Earl Fortescue, Baron Brunnow, Vice-Admiral de Lutke, Rear-Admiral Count Heyden, the Coun sellor d'Etat Haurowitz, Le Baron de Freedericktz, Count Beust, Countess Assenburg, Lord Alfred Paget, Lord George Lennox, Hon. Colonel Grey, Hon. Captain Gordon, &c , &c. Her Majesty was most cordially welcomed, and every mark of respect was paid to the Prince Consort, and her Majesty's royal and illustrious visitors. The racing com menced immediately after her Majesty's arrival, and, with the usual interval for' luncheon between, the New Vase and Cup races proceeded, with a tolerably close attention to the published time of start ing, up to the race for the Visitor's Plate, on the termi nation of which her Majesty and party left for the Castle. We understand that the royal visitors expressed themselves highly gratified with the sport, and with the regularity with which the business of the course was carried on. Having spoken generally of the attendance, which is allowed to have been on a par with the best Cup day on record, we ought, in justice to the occasion, to submit a long list of the titled and distinguished oc cupants of the grand, jockey club, and stewards stands. So much of our time, however, was necessarily occupied ny ether duties, and so dense was the crowd. that we could enly obtain an indifferent view of the noble personages pre sent. The sport came fully up to our expectation; each of the eight events crowded into Mr. Oxley's neatly printed card having produced a race. The first in the order of running was Her Majesty's Guineas, which were won F so easily by Footstool that he made a second and equally successful appearance for the Visitors' Pia'e ; the New Stakes, out of forty. nine entries, gave us only seven ...tellers, it was won by a "dark" horse of Mr. Green's, who has thus brought out this season no less than three great to o-year-old winners—Assault, Flatcatch, r, and l3everlae, all in the Derby, and sure to fiaure conspi cuously in the quotations from the corner. The Emperor's Vase followed, and excited great interest ; The Hero, who did not make any figure in the betting until after he won the Queen's Vase, becoming at the last an eq , ial favourite with Mendicant The race was not long in doubt, the Hero making strong running from first to last, aed winning cleverly by a ngth, Mendicant, who appeared to us to go short, being only filth. The h-tting on thiA race, and, in fact, on all the races, was much more lively than could have been expected in the present state of the ring. A splen did race for the St. James's Palace Stakes was followed by four others, on which time will not permit us to dwell : and at six o'clock, a day's sport that had no alloy but the heat and its concomitant dust, was brought to a close. Her Majesty's Plate of 100 guineas ; 3 yrs, 7st 21b ; 4 yrs. 9st 21b ; 5 yrs, lOst ; 6 yrs and aged, lOst 51b. About 3 miles. Lord Orford's Footstool, 4 yrs (Nat) 1 Sir J.

The Hero made the running at a strong pace, fol lowed by Mendicant, Jericho lying about two lengths in her wake, and clear of the other horses, who ran in a dilater. There was no change_ in this order until tin y came to the last turn ; Poynton here took Je richo's place, and followed Mendicant to the dis tance, where they were both beaten. Wolf Dog then came, and got to The Hero's quarters, but never improved his position, and was in the end b , aten cleverly by a length, Jericho a capital third, Sting fourth, and Mendicant fifth, both well up.

BRUSSELS, JUNE 1. —Her Majesty tl.e Queen, accom panied by their Royal Highnesses, the Duke de Brabant, and the Count de ria❑ders, arrived to day et the Palace from Lacken. A letter from Mersa, addressed to the Courrier de Luxembourg, s4ys— "At th.s moment all nature stands in unrivalled beauty and luxuriance. Nat only are our cr-ps and vegetables as fine as possible, but our orchards are laden with blossom. The wheat and the ,rye, which were checked by the cold of April, have suddenly sprung up. Our apple and pear trees, in a word, all our fruit trees, have been richly covered with blossom, some of which has already gehie tiff and fine fruit set." CARLSRUHE, MAY 26.—We have just learnt that our Go%ernment has issued an ordinance which is of im portance, especially to those parts of our country which abounds in game. The most decisive measures are to be taken to prevent the nicreese in the quantity of game, in all places to the detriment of agriculture, am' the authorities are even authorized, in cases where the farmers of the hunting grounds do not themselves re medy such an abuse, to order per force hunting parties st their expense. VIENNA, MAY 26.—Count Stadino, the appointed Governor ot Luteburg, is preparing to set out for hi tio%ernment, arid will .prebeblv leave Vienna before the end ot the mi•nth. Count Munich Billinghausen, the Presidetit of the German aet, is likewise preparing to set out for Frankfort. The tellowing diplomatic ehaages are spoken of : Baron Von Nt urnaer, from Florence to the Hague ; Count Moritz Es terhazy from the Hague to Flo; enc.- ; Count George Esterhuzy, from Carlstuhe to Lisbon ; Count Rudolph Appengi, hitherto Secretary of Legation in Paris, as Ambassador to Carlsruhe ; Count Ingelheitn, as Ambassador to Rio de Janeiro ; lastly, Baron von Bremer, hitherto Secretary of Legation in London, as Charge d'Affaires at. Munich. His Majesty the Em peror will go on the 27th to his summer palace of Schon braun. His Highness the Archduke Francis Charles. with his family, were at that residence a fevv days ago. Her Imperial Highness the Grand Duchess Helen returned triim Warsaw a day or two ago. ST. PETERSBURGH, MAY 12.—Though we have had some remarkably fine weather, the Court is still here. The weather has changed since yesterday, and it is now sensibly cold. The masses of ice from Lake La doga continued to pass across the Nrwa to the Gulf, and contributed not a little to the chilliness of the tempera ture. The sea before Cronstadt is still covered with ice, and foreign vessels waiting on the coast still find it im possible to enter the harbour, Yesterday_the infant son of the Imperial Prince Vladimir was christened,. and the city was illuminated in the evening. inland cor-: respondence ot Russia, in all parts of the empire, is in creasing every year, in consequence of the present ad mirable organization of the post-office. According to the last report of our Postmaster-General of the year 1845, the number of 10,136,142 letters were forwarded-in the empire four years before the numbers were only. 7,902,314. This is a proof of the increasing desire of all , classes to extend their correspondence. The two capi tals, St. Petersburgh and Moscow, have the fourth part of this correspondence. The largest portion is to Prus sia, it amounts to one-half of the whole. BERLlN. —According to the Silesian Gazette, the nom• mercial circles here are thrown into a state of extraordi nary excitement by the forgery practised by Win. L —s, the great timber merchant, who has put into circulation forged bills of exchange to the amount of between 200,000 and 300,000 &Mars, by which fraud several houses, and even the royal bank have suffered. The police were in pursuit of the forger, but it is feared that he has already succeeded in escaping to America by way of Hamburg. England, and the ocean. BERLIN, MAY 29.—0 n the 27th his Maji-sty gave a grand dinner in honour of the birthday of her Majest) the Queen of England. The resident British Ambas• sader, the Earl of Westmoreland, and his Countess, as well as all the English who have been presented at Court in England were invited on the occasion.

It appeared that goods, con sisting and on the Bth of October , 1846, Bilson hired, for himself ora copart ncei circulars l a a r a saloon a a handbills in the Royalarno announcing , that Edinburgh, issued a of Indian, Chinese, Persian, and French shawls and scarfs, and other articles of foreign manufacture, w ou ld b e displayed and sold by retail, or brought to " legalised sale by private treaty." It appeared that such arti c l es, w h en a ctually of the manufacture described, were greatly in de mand; but it was ascertained that the goods exposed by the accused were not genuine, but were inferior in value and de scription to what was produced in Britain. Havi ng di sposed of many of the articles on the faith of his representati ons , this constituted the charges of falsehood and f rau d . He was also charged with forgery, inasmuch as he adhibited characters or markings on the goods, intending the Came to pass as the genuine characters of the Indian, Chinese, and other foreign manufacturers. On the case being called on, no appearance was made by or for the accused. His bail of 1001. was therefore declared to be forf e it e d, an d a warrant w as issued for his apprehension. It is understood that th. establishment was broken up, and the individuals connected with it, scattered, so that this prosecution has doubtless accomplished both an exposure and termination of the con traband trade.
