in the present state of the revenue of the country he might
fairly look forward to. He believed they were lessening

GERMANY.

The opening of the Vienna Customs Congress, ap-
pointed for the 20th, was postponed in consequence of
the absence of several delegates. M. Von Stockhausen,
the new Hanoverian minister at the Austrian court,
was admitted to present his credentials on the 21st.
The Hanoverian government appears fairly to have
sat down to wait the issue of the events now taking
place in Vienna and Berlin. Its commissioner to
the Zollverein conferences at Berlin was recalled on
the 30th ult., and his post has since remained
vacant. Letters from Hanover state, moreover, that
an equal reticence is observed towards Austria, the
invitation to send a representative to the Vienna
conferences having been declined.
The Vienna papers publish accounts of yet more
extensive damage from the inundations in the south
of the empire. At Fiume the American mill has
been earrried clean away by the flood, the pro-
prietors sustaining a loss of 200,000 florins. The
tobacco manufactory and the hospital also stand in
the water. The district of Posavura is said to have
suffered in a higher degree than any other. Letters
from Croatia state that the peasantry are reduced
almost to despair.
The %rein Zeit.mg states that the Prussian go-
vernment has appointed Count von Arnim-Blumberg
to an extraordinary mission to Florence, in reference
to the imprisonment of the Medial,.
The Danish government has issued writs for the
election of the States-General of Holstein. The
assembly will consist of forty-four members, of
whum five are to be elected by the great land-
owners, seventeen by smaller rural proprietors,
twelve by proprietors of town property, four by the
prelates and chevaliers, two by the clergy, and one
by the University. The Duke of Augustenburg has
also the legal right to nominate ono member of the
body, but It is not supposed that he will be permitted
to exercise it.

MR. T. B. MACAULAY.

The following appears in • second edition of the
Scotsmen of Saturday last:
" Annexed is the substance of a letter from Mr. Macaulay
to the chairman of his committee, dated Loudon, Thursday,
and received hers this morning :
" lam so much better, that I think I may, with some
management, venture to make my appearance at Edin-
burgh before parliament meets. I think that Msnday, the
Ist, or Tuesday, the 2nd, of November, would be the best
day. I would start for the north to Friday, the 29m, and
divide the journey
.into two days, reaching Edinburgh
on Saturday, stopping over Ow Monday and Tuesday,
and leaving on Wednesday, so as to be in the
Home of Commons on Thursday afternoon. My kind
friends must not expect from me more than one address,
and that, I hope, I shall be able to get through pretty
well. lam better certainly than in August 1 expected ever
again to be.'
We presume that the committee will fix Tuesday the
2nd proximo for the me‘ting, Monday, the lit, being the
day lollowiag the hall-yearly Sacrament."
The same journal, la reference to the rumoured resigna-
tion of Mr. Macaulay, says :
" Some ridiculous stories about Mr. Macaulay—that he
was going to resign, that his resignation was even in Edin-
burgh, and that 'the Whip were m a deep conspirary
to bring in his successor by surprise—have lately been
pat in circulation by one or two silly and disreputable
newspapers whom nobody would think it worth while
to conuadiet. It appears, however, that our somewhat
primitive contemporary, the Advertiser, has become a dupe
of his more wicked brethren, as he has • long article yes-
terday gravely setting forth that Mr. Macaulay has vir
tually resigatd, though his committee, through ' a natural
reluctance, keep it a secret—also, became 'that it is con-
venient fur the Edinburgh whiga to get the start of the
other parties in the city, and have another man to propose
the moment they withdraw the old one;' that either Mr.
Cardwell or Sir George Grey is the man on whose behalf
this dark game is being played; that there will be a
sharp contest—with other trimly full and true particulars.
Since the thing has got this length, it may perhaps
be as well to state, which we do on the best know-
ledge and authority, that—unless indeed Mr. Macaulay has
told his enemies what he has never hinted to his friends,
and unless our contemporaries know infinitely more about
' the committee' than the committee itself or any mem-
ber thereof—there is not in any one of these statement' a'
single word of truth. The committee know no more of Mr.
*seaway than that which, as in duty bound, they imme-
diately communicated to the electors at large ; nor is there
anything to be known, mve that, if his physicians do not
absolutely ()Aid, Mr. Macaulaywill fulfil his anxious desire
to meet kis constituents previous to the assembling of par-
liament. This point, which was the only point ever as
doubt, will of muse be set at rest In a day or two.

TURKEY.

By the Levant mail we have received Constanti-
nople journals to the 9th. Sir H. Ward, Lud High
Commissioner of the lonian Islands, had left that
that city for Corte, after a few days' stay; and Mr.

BEHIND TUE REST OF THE WORLD.—I have
come to the conclusion that there are districts in Ragland
which repreeent every period of our history; that the
Roses are still fighting in obscure villages in Suffolk; and
is the heart of Warwickshire people are looking out for
news from the Crusades. It was quite evident that three
generations of each people as inhabited the Butts would
take us op • greet many hundred years • that their fathers
were redolent of Queen Elisabeth ; and their grandfathers
very bitter against the usurpation of Henry the Fourth.
An English traveller, in the year 1820, came upon a tribe
of Cossacks in the north-east of Russia, who were cele-
brating with great triumph the news, that day arrived, of
the battle of Waterloo. It is said that the bonfires for the
restoration of Charles the Second were the first intimation
the inhabitants of Truro had of the greet Civil War sad
the reign of Oliver Cromwell. How many Cossacks there
are in those days of illumination scattered all over the
country, who take years to learn the greatness of a victory
that has been woo on their behalf ! How many wise men
of Truro, who only learn, from the signs of safety around
them, the troubles and dangers they have escaped by
which that safety was gained ! —Dickens's "IlousthoU

AN ENGLISH BULL FIGIUL—OG Monday morn-
ing a desperate encounter took place between two two.
yeauold bulls on the land of Mr. Buy, of Hammy, Lewes.
It appears that Mr. Elwyn, whose farm adjoins Mr. Guy's,
has • bull which broke through into a field where Mr. Guy's
bull was grazing. A fearful conflict took place between the
animals. They fought with the moat fearful violence for
upwards of a quarter of an hour; and our informant states
that one of them had his horn broken off close to the head.
When they were almost exhausted, the man on the farm
saeosedsd in separating them.—Brighton Gazette.

republic. IL Trowitsch, ev.-editor of the latter journal,
had already been sur.smonei before the polies,

proceeded against severely. It is known that the diplo-
matic agents of Prance in foreign countries have received
more precise and rigorous instructions relative to the Ger-

AUSTRIA.
The Iranderer of Vienna states that the algoratio
treaty by which Wurtemberg is to accede to the
Amato-Bavarian treaty on the navigation of the
Danube has been oonoluded, and that the ratification
will take place very shortly.
rho Presse of Vienna says that the lines of rail-
way which are to be established at the expense of the
state will be constructed by the troops.
The government is endeavouring at present to 'give
a greater extension to the steam navigation of the
Danube. It has engaged in Belgium fifteen captains
for its vessels, who have already taken their depar-
tare for Ling. The Austrian steam service will
extend from Vienna to the Black Sea.

Apropos of the disagreement with Fould, I may

REPRESENTATION or Eirreit.—Already there aro
signs of • stiff contest for the city representation, at the
next general election. The conservative party, it is fully
understood, intead bringing forward Sir Fitzroy Kelly,
who has lately been here to reconnoitre the field before
entering the lists against Mr. Divett. The announcement
has brought out the friends of Mr. Divan, who have issued
an address to the electors to the effect that as it is an-
nonnord Sir F. Kelly intends to come forward asa represent..
tire, and it having been industriously circulated that Mr.
Diet:ado... not mean to come forward again, the friends of
that gentleman are assured that he has no idea of retiring
from the seat; and that the story is an invention of the
enemy. The electors aro cautioned against promising
their support to any other party. Sir John Duckworth,
Dart., has also issued an address in which he states his in-
tention of again coming forward as a candidate for the re-
presentation when the time comes. There are rumours that
two or three other gentlemen—one an eminent banker of
Loudon—intend to contest the seat; but this has not yet as
awned any definitive form. Some of the conservative eke-
tors are dissatisfied with their candidate, Sir John Duck-
worth, because he is not " so accessible" as some former
conservative representatives for the city ; and a portion of
the liberal electors complain that Mr. Divett does not "
go
fast enough for them." There is some talk of a chartist
candidate, but the advocates of the "points " are " few and
far between" in this city.

MR. BENNETT AND THE VICARAGE OF

FROME.

With regard to the protest of the inhabitants of
From: against the appointment, by the Marchioness of
Bath, of Mr. Bin:lett to the vicarage of that place, the
Rev. Mr. ('alvert has published the following copy of the
marchioness's reply, stating that a copy of the protest was
sent at the time to the bishop, and that it is intended to
make a further remonstrance in the same quarter:
(cure.]
" Longleat, Juu. 3.
"Rev. Sir,—l have received with sincere regret a com-
munication signed by yourself and others, relating to the
appointment ut theiter. W. J. E. Bennett to the vicarage
of Frome, in my gift. In reply, I beg to inform you that
the appointment is already made and cannot be revoked.
"I roman, rev. sir, yours faithfully,
" 11. Barn.

"The Rev. W. Calvert, Vicarage, Frome."
A correspondent of a morning paper writes: "The living
is in the gift nt the Marquis of Bath, who will be of age
this year. His mother, as his guartLian, exercises thus, a
few months before he has the power of doing so, a right
adverse (I believe) to her son's views of the dt.ctrine of Mr.
Bennett. Can no injunction be obtained to restrict tho
bolding of this living at least till the Marquis's concurrence
be obtained at his majority ? By the Cleryy List I find
there are three livings in k rome in tho gilt of the vicar,
which makes the matter more grievous, as there will be no
shelter trout such infliction but out of the church of Eng-
I .nd."

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.

7 _ -
M. Bille, the Danish envoy, embarked at Kiel on
the 2nd instant fur Copenhagen, de retour from his
mission to Berlin and Vienna. He has failed in the
principal object of his mission, the withdrawal of the
Austrian army of occupation from Holstein. The
cause of this failure, according to a letter dated
Alton, Dec. 30, is that the Danish government has
given evasive, or rather negative, answers to the
propositions of the Germanic Confederation, and de-
mands the federal troops to be withdrawn from
Holstein, previously to its ageing Into any final
arrangements.

MARK-LANE.-THIS D.Y.

Tiler, was not much English Wheat at market this
morning, and the few parcels on sale, were readily disposed
of at the advance noted on Monday. With the exesvion of
1,400 qrs. from Rostock, and 4,ft.50 qrs. from Alexandria,
we are without arrivals of foreign Wheat. Holders evinced
much firmness, and former prices were in all instances ob-
tained where sales were made. Flour was rather dearer.

Barley, Beans, and Bees fully maintained their value.
Our Market was well supplied with Oats, wLich pre-
vented any improvement.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.

THIS DAY.

OLD COMM.—Duos' Balm Pure AND Ma. Joann Wsumme.

Fonosay.

/tonna Weir, alias (Aria Ihvidaow, 19, a good-looking
young woman. pleaded guilty to three indictments, charging
her with uttering forged Bank of England notes fur 51. and
401., with intent to defraud.
Mr. Bodkin, who wan counsel for the prisoner, said he
WM instructed that she was connected with a very re-'
speetable family and that there was good reason for be
hewing she had 'been made a dupe by another party, and
that she hail been made the instrument of carrying out
the guilty object of that party. Under these circumstances
he applied fur the postponement of the sentence until the
next session, in order that certain facts might be laid
before the authorities of the Bank of England, which
would possibly induce them to sanction a lenient course
being adopted towards the prisoner.
Mr. Clarkson, who appeared for the prosecution, said
that the Bank knew nothing more of the case than appeared
in the depositions, but be had no objection to the Mune
that was suggested, and any facts that were laid before the
authorities of that corporation, would of course be taken
iatncoosideration.

The court, under these circumstances, respited the judg-
ment

Rounrrtr.

E. C. Masterlon 33, a Cleri. in the General Post•ofilee,
was charged with stealing a letter containing Is., the pro-
perty of the Postmaster-Oeneral.
Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Bodkin appeared for the prosecu-
tion. The prisoner was defended by Mr. &limning.
It appeared that the primmer hail been In the service of
the Part-office for four years, and on the 31st Dec., in con-
sequence of something that had previously transpired, a
messenger in the office, named Forbes, was directed to
watch hint while he was engaged in sorting the letters that
were to he despatched by the morning mail. After he had
been PO employed fur soma time, the witness saw tho pri-
soner crumple no two letters and put them in his pocket,
and when ho had finished his duty and was about to leave
the office, lie was stopped, and on his being searched, two
letters, one containing a shilling and the other a shilling
and a fourpenay piece, were found in his wissession. Upon
the discovery taking place, the primmer said lie did not
know hew lie came to do it, it must have been infatuation,
and he tidied that it would be the death of his wife, as she
had had no one but him to protect her.
Mr. Ballantine addressed the jury for the pri,aner, and
called several respectable witnesses, who gave him a most
excellent character fur a period extending almost to his
childhood.

The learned Judge havint summed up, the jury found
the prison, r Guilty; but, at the came tints, recommended
him strou,:ly to mercy, 011 sccouut of his previous good
character.

Ile was sentenced to he transported for seven years.
The ease of Ddvis and Heilbronn for frapdulently obtain-
ing goods.to at very large amount from di& rent tradunnen
three months previous to the bankruptry of the former pri-
soner, rids postponed to the next session.

LOMBARDO-VENETIAN PROVINCES.

A new glass manufactory has just been esta-
blished at Venice, in which those peculiar processes
which once rendered tho glass of that city so crle•

FATAL EXPLOSION AT HIGHGATE.

The case of Mr. Edwards, whose it juries by the
accident which occurred to himself and his friend
Mr. Foster were alluded to in yesterday's E.rpreas,
did not appear hopeless until Sunday evening ; but,
though Mr. lirendon sat up with his patient for two
nights, and did all that could be done for his relief,
death took place on Monday morning, its imme-
diate cause being apparently the irreparable shock sus-
taiued by the norvous system at the moment of the acci-
dent. It in gratifying to state that the gentleman who so
nobly risked his own life, for the sake of his friend, conti-
nued gradually to recover. and is now progressing favour-
ably towards complete recovery. The event lute caused tho
deepest distress to Mr. Edwards s parents and other relatives.
One brother of the deceased resides at Hampstead; but
with that exception the family, which is numerous, resides
at a considerable distance in the west, and, having received
a telegraphic communientiou, they all set off instantly for
London. As regards the precise cause or manner of the
accident, it seems impossible to speak with certainty, Mr.
Footer having been so stunned by the explosion that he de-
clares that he cannot recollect distinctly anything that im-
mediately preceded. It may, however, be conjectured, as
a probable solution of the calamity, that the lamp having
gone out, the smouldering spirits had a tendency to attract
the flame of the candle, and thus to produce ignition end
combustion ; something similar to this having been fre-
quently observed in the relighting of common candles. We
may add that, on public grounds, it seems most desirable
that spirit lamps, set forth as " patent," " peerless," " self-
gas-generating," and so on, should be subjected to some
safety -test , in order that the properties, whatever they may
be, of their combustible fuel may not again lead to such
lamentable results.

ROMAN STATES.
Our correspondent, writing on Oct. 4, says :
It appears positive, and has been reported as such
by some of the diplomatic residents here to their
respective governments, on the authority of Cardinal
Antonolli, that the principal object of Sir Henry
Bulwer's visit to Rome was to obtain from his Holi-
ness a formal discouragement of the proceedings of
the Irish clergy in political matters, and a warning
admonition to the Catholic Defence Association.
Should ho not succeed in winning over the ora-
cular voice of Home, Lord Derby will proceed
to adopt severe temporal measures against
tho of instead, which will perhaps bo
much more efficacious, for even if a monitorio, or ec-
clesirustienl circular, should be really drawn up in the
terms desired by the British government, snd con-
tided to Sir Henry Bulwer, there is no knowing what
secret instructions might be forwareed simultaneously
by the Pope to the head, of the Irish clergy in a
directly opposite sense, the events of the last few
years having afforded us numerous instances of such
doable dealing on the part of the Roman court. I

BELGIUM.

The Independarece of yesterday says :
The difficulties which impeded the formation of the new
cabinet seemed on Monday to have been removed. It was
I pertly expected that this morning would see the publication
' of the royal decrees; thee all became changed, and the ap-
prehension we repressed two days since are realised.
We learn that M. Henri de Broacher. was received by
the Wag yesterday at blacken, sad that he resigned the
power which had been confided to him.
The Journal de Fronlifori lately published the
statement that the Belgian cabinet had addressed a
pro memorio to all the European chanceries on the
subject of the recent misunderstanding with France
on commercial affairs. The Independence states that
the news is inexact. The government did, however,
send a circular to its various diptimatie.agents, con-
taining a full discussion of the cue, in order to
enable them to defend the policy of their govern-
ment.

some discussion, resolved to hold another meeting
this evening, for the purpose of nominating a com-
