LONDON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 28.

THE hopes and feelings of every liberal English-
man have just been mortified and painfully wrung in
seeing Hungary overcome and stranirled by the enor-
mous weight of Russia and Austria combined, by
some halt dozen Russian armies, and by the butcher,
HAYNAII, stepping in to victimise those whom the
arms of the Cossacks bad overthrown.
But yesterday the gallant victim lay bleeding.
We were not prepared to see the spoil and the very
limbs, as it were, served up already for tie inspection
and purchase of Englishmen. HAYNAU% proclama-
tions have scarcely sounded the note of triumph over
Hungary, when the Times is pushed forward to de-
clare that Hungary and its revenues shall be sub-
jected to the Anglian deb'. And straight upon this
official annolnoement comes the advertisement of an
Austrian loan. English capitalists are is fact bidden
to the feast of triumph. They are asked to pay the
expenses of the campaigns just terminated, with pro-
mise of repayment out of the proceeds of conquest.
They had hoped to trade with free Hungary;
they are asked to give their capital to add to the
weight of its oppression, with promise that they may
careen Clair interest as it becomes due, and that
the interest of this capitalized interest will be paid
out of the tribute wrung from conquered Hungary.
A proffer so audacious as this has seldom Leen
made even to the Stock Exchange. Much money has
been flung in this way to young and distant states, of
free and undeveloped resources. Sunk as all such
money has been, there is some chance of these countries
at a future day doing honour to the debts, whose produoe
aided their infant efforts at political liberty and
national existence. But an empire, like Austria,
scarcely held together by bayonets and by fetters,
without eommon link or identity between its pro-
vinces, and overburdened with a tremendous debt, in-
curred purely for the interests and caprices of its
dynasty—to think that the scattered limbs of such an
empire should long consent to bear or to share the
hardens, imposed by the METTERNICII or the house
of LORRAINE, were indeed a presumptive hope.
Even as a despotic state, with a government nnre-
misted and with a population obedient and industri-
ous, the Austrian empire cannot raise a revenue, capa-
ble of meeting its ordinary expenses. Its revenue
might have been estimated at 160 millions of florins.
Of these, 60 millions, the produce of the land tax,
were abeorbed by the army alone, and by the army
under a peace establishment, with numbers calculated
to the amount requisite to keep down a disaffected
population, at a time, too, when Hungary was not
considered amongst the disaffected. Fifty more mil-
lions of florins were required for the interest of thedebt.
The remainder of the revenue did not do more than
pay salaries and pensions, leaving the entire expense of
the court, the administration and public works to he
defrayed by annual loans. Tae consequences of such a
financial system we may quote from the celebrated
work on " Austria and its Future :"
The results tLen of a peace of a quarter of a century have
been to Austria, its debt doubled on its nominal value, quad.
rupled in its teal sealant, the amount of inter,st to be paid
multiplied tenfold, and this, notwithstanding many loans,
made in the form of lottery, and not incurring the payment
of interest.

The Italian profiteer of Austria, be it remarked,
are burdened with their own debt, and can support
no augmentation of taxer. Neither can Bohemia nor
the central provinces of Austria. Tne sole increase
of revenue must therefore be derived from Hungary.
And we need not say, that for every pound raised by
enaction from that boil, more than a pound mutt be
spent in Austrian or huesian soldiers to enforce it.
That, too, for the security of the present, without any
thought of the retribution of the future. Un.ler these
circumstances, we do not imagine that any will to
found reckless enough to take share in an Austrian
loan.

Monster capitalists, indeed, or at least those who
have monster means, may indeed have offers of irre- '
sisible and immediate advantages and profits, pro- '
vided they will become the instruments to entice and
dupe the public, or any portion of it, into such an
investment. We have, however, one security; and '
one advantage is to be derived from the bru-
talities of HAYNALT, that no Jewish capitalist thirst,
surely, come forward to propose a loan for that go-
vernment which so recently and mercilessly prac-
tised extortion and applied torture to entire masses
of their co-religionists.
We yesterday published a letter, addressed by Mr.
COBDEN, on the subject of this loan, to a gentleman
in the city. And we learn that it is the determina-
tion to hold a public meeting, in order to bring the
force of public opinion to bear upon this attempted
perversion of the funds of economy and industry to
the purposes of tyranny, of social oppreseion, and
commercial prohibition. The time is come when it
behoves the rich to prove that wealth is a moral
power. For should it become clearly established
that capital, when collected in large masses, is more
likely to be squanthred on marauding armies than
vested in works of peace—if it is to fit out vessels
for the slave trade when denied to the employer of
free labour; if the same great city which thanks
for want of money from colunising even a few acres
in Ireland, shall at the same time find money in
abundance to be spent in the tyrannisiog of Hun-
gary—then we will say that those great
enemies of wealth, and of the classes formed
by it, the communists, will have received a very
dangerous and conclusive support for their subversive
doctrines. We do not want to interfere with wealth,
or to dictate its mode of employment, no more than
we would interfere with royalty, or government, or
any great source of power. But it is the interest cf
all that they should hear the voice of criticism, and
that the public opinion which cannot fail to busy itself
with all that is prominent and powerful, should be
expressed, and should exercise influence in proportion
to its justice and to its rectitude of feeling.

NOTHING less than the public and solemn impeach-
ment of Mr. Moan O'FEItRALL, and of all who have
abetted him by instructions or approbation, can save
this country from the indelible disgrace of participat-
ing in the inhuman conduct of the Maltese govern-
ment. The behaviour of the authorities of the Wand
to the first vessels that arrived with refugees from the
Roman ports, has been fully and simply told in the
letter of M. AGOSTINI, which we published on
Monday.
From that letter we learn the sufferings of the 183
refugees, who were on board of the Robin and the
Lycurgus. All pent up on board of vessels in the
climate of Malta, in tne month of July, craved as a
boon to be sent to prison, or shut up in the Lazaretto,
in order that they might get air and repose. Bat no,
the governor would not allow even two of the most
suffering and ill, nor yet a boy of fourteen, to be
landed or relieved.

After perpetrating these acts of inhumanity, the
fun results of which we have yet to learn, Mr.
MORE OTERRALL quitted the island in order to
amuse him_elf, and recruit his own precious health,
ia a more northern clime. But going, he left strict
arias (not to be infringed) according to which an
m3re refugees were to be treated with equal, or with
more, inhumanity. We find the result of the orders
of this absentee ithadamanthus in the following report
from the Malta mail just received.

Ace lam week gave an account ef the sufferings to which
the refugees arrived here by the Peloro had been subjected,
since their transfer to the Gennaro. Unwilling to take the
report as to their actual condition on trust from friends wl o,
front excitement or other causes, may have been betrayed
into en exaggerated narrative, we resolved on personally
visidng them, god on Monday, the 3d Sept., carried out our
purpose, accompanied by some friends.
Oa passing the Getman, on board of which the remainder
11 of the refugees who had net been allowed to land were still
waned, they crowded to the gangway, and respectfully

saluted one of the party in our boat, with whom they were
acquainted. Their appearance alone was enough to prepare
no ter the scene widen followed.
Arrived at that part of the L• xarettn not inaptly denomi.
stated the " Sicilian Hospital," a scene met our view which
absolutely made us shudder. We were received by the un-
fortunates with welcome and with gratitude; for they felt
that those were with them who sympathised with them.
They formed a portion of the sufferers who were Lot con-
fined to their beds by illness—but of them, many were with.
oat shirts—many without trowsers—ail suffering from the
want of food and the bli mingle of liberty.
Proceeding from the landing-place, we entered the build-
ing. Here we witnessed Buttering of a deeper kind: here
we saw what made our nature sicken ; stretched on mat-
tresses of the coarsest quality, filled with straw of the worst
description, in many cases too narrow and too short to allow
the body to repose, were extended the miss able strangers
seeking the hospitality and protection of the British govern-
ment. The mattresses had only that day given place to the
flea-attracting straw, their former bed; and in some is-
stances a pair of trestles and planks bad been added to their
comforts. Here were those sick, even beyond hope of re-
covery, in a complete state of languor and helplessness.
The shrivelled arm bad scarce the necessary strength to
dislodge the numerous flies already settling on their victims.
The absence of all comfort must have added deeply to the
too wretched position of the poor creatures, whose deepest
offence had nought to do with England or her government.
Proceeding onwards, we heard the mailings of the devoted
wife, whose husband had that day been forced by increasing
sickness to his loathsome mattress. We saw the gaping
wounds of some, that under careful treatment would have
been long since cured. We saw those whom the fate of war
had deprived of a limb—we saw the loathsome vermin crawl-
ing on the bodies of many, by whom the luxury of a bath had
not been attainable before, although this treat has, we be-
lieve, been since allowed. We saw those suffering from
cutaneous diseases of every kind—we heard the groans of •
poor creature, sufferiue:the pangs of labour ; we saw—but we
have told enough. Shall this description not unfreeze the
hard heart of the local government ? We know the kinoly
disposition of Colonel Jones; we feel the delicacy of his
position, acting temporarily for him to whom is due the
honour of keeping the poor fellows in such condition. Sure'y
for the greatest sufferers some mercy might be shown—surly
the hour et death, now fast approaching, might be made more
endurable, under the care of the nurses and clean wards of
the civil hospital; and, whether permitted to die in Valle.ta
or the Las nett° must be of very little real consequence to
the head of the government.
We describe what we saw on the 3rd of September.
Sines that period such comforts as have been attainable by
means of the donations of the charitable have been given.
The luxury of • shin has concealed the nakedness of all—
the luxury of a bed, bind from town, with its natural ap-
pendage, a curtain, hes enabled the dying to snatch a few
hours of repose, free from the attacks of the ferocious carrion
fly.
We have not described the facts above related to excite
the sympathies of the humane, or touch the hearts of the
charitable; we have described what we saw, and describing
it, we feel ashamed of belonging to • country that has thus
violated one of its dearest privileges, the exercise of Ms-
meaty.
But of what use is it that the press and the people of Eng-
land sympathu with the refugees and endeavour to alle-
viate their distress by raising subscriptions in their fovour,
if the government of Malta continues to commit its vexations
' upon all the foreigners who touch at the idled? Wi*hout
enumerating mazy facts, we will recite a recent one. Baron
Lumia, who had resided in Malta for a leeg time, went to
Corfu, leaving 'his wife, for some reasons of his own, in
Malta ; on his return he was refused permission to land, not-
withstanding some most respectable people applied to go-
vernment for permission. He was compelled to return to
Corlu. Last week a lady and three children, who arrived
from Genoa, on their way to Cons:antinople, were refused
permission to land, and compelled to remain on board the
lorench steamer. Perhaps the government was afraid that
a lady and her three children would have disturbed the teal-
quiility of the island; or, perhaps, have caused the govern-
ment to take measures of precaution.

And Malta is an English dependency, governed
by a civilian, and obeying orders from the colonial
secretary of a Whig administration. There was but
one opinion in this country, we believe, as to the jus-
tice of the French campaign
.against Rome, but one
opinion as to the Romans having ucted in legitimate
defence. And yet the French have treated the re-
fugees from Rome with infinitely more humanity
than we have. At Marseilles, all who arrived
were allowed to land on condition of continuing
their journey at their leisure, and en getting beyond
the frontier of France. At Malta, on the contrary,l
they are kept in the close hold of a coal barge, I
lor on the open deck of a pontoon, in the broiling nu of
a Malta July, hopeless of refuge anywhere, ;Weis at
the expense of some 30/. a yore passage money to
England. No commiseration for the sick, no respect
for the women, no thought for the child. The pre-
posterous absurdity of the same government keeping
a fleet at nearly a million annual expenditure
to prevent the crowding of negro slaves in pestilen-
tial holds, and at the same time keeping up colonies
with their governor., and protecting fleets in the
Mediterranean, for the express purpose of treating
liberal refugees more inhumanely thin a slava cargo
—this requires explanation.
It is said that disaffection reigns at Malta, or in Ce-
phalonia—we believe it. What Englishman, mach
less what Italian,but must feel contempt, art rsion, and
abhorrence for any government cipable of issuing such
decrees as those of MORE OTERRALL, or such
hangman proclamations as those of Mr. WARD
in Cephalonia? Some rebellions are produced by
material grievances ; but a more legitimate cause of
disaffection proceeds from moral disgust. We defy
any one to read these accounts without blushing for
the name of Englishmen, and without wishing Malta
at the bottom of the sea, rather than that it should
exist to disgrace England, and to outrage humanity.
As to the sentiments of the Maltese, they are mani-
fested by the universal jubilee which pervaded every
Glees when it was whispered that O'FERRALL bad
resigned. What will the revulsion be, when the
islanders learn that far from reproval, his conduct has
met with the approbation of Earl GREY and of Lord
Jousi RUSSELL! Let us still be permitted to think that
these statesmen, who have a liberal reputation
to preserve or to lose (and lose it for
weer they most if they persist in supporting
the infamous O'FitnasLL), were induced to approve
'of the conduct of the Maltese government solely on
the strength of misrepresentations which the simplest
statement of facts so manifestly belies.
With respect to Mr. WARD, we fully join in his
indignation against the murderers and incen-
diaries, not the insurgents of Cephalonia.
Ruffians who burn families in their own
dwellings deserve the utmost penalty of the
law. Bat precisely because they were murderers,
they need not have been made the object of a politi-
cal proclamation. Neither need they have been tried
by mutt-martial, and strung up in haste, as if justice
could not assume the calm and regular attitude which
befits it. Such precipitation runs the risk of con-
founding innocent with guilty, and with semi-guilty.
It is certainly very like the mode of proceeding in
Ireland in 1798, a precedent adopted by the Austrian
general towards Hungary, and pleaded by the
Times as a legitimate one. It is, however, the
cruel and infamous mode in which the ignorant Irish
catholic was treated in 1798 that has perpetuated that
Irish rancour which now, half a century later, still
breaks out. And the same results of wholesale exe-
cutions will follow the same policy in Hungary or in
Cephalonia. Mr. WARD might have suppressed the
insurrection like an English statesman : Lord at-
RENDON'S example was before him. He has preferred
to adopt the laving* and the policy of Baron
HAYNAU.
An examination into these facts must, however,
call the attention of parliament. We must know
under what regime our colonies stand. We must un-
derstand whether, at a time when all Europe is be-
coming liberal, and when even the most despotic gene-
rals talk of constitutions, we alone are to retrograde
to the policy and the regime of Sir THOMAS MAIT-
LAND. A quarter of a century ago, we had
a political party, which approved of the
restoration of FERDINAND and the banging
of MECO. The same patty approved the
Austrian invasion of Naples, and the Russian domina-
tion of the continent. Against such a party the illus-
trious CANNING protested; and we were wont to
understand that the whigs, if not more liberal than
CANNING, at least were prepared to go his lengths,
and not fall behind his principles. It now seems
that we were mistaken, that the CASTLEREAGH
school is on its legs again, resuscitated, and not only
triumphant in Europe, but exultant in the English
parliament, the London press, and in some of the
offices of Downing street.
The English public have a right to obtain infor-
mation on this subject. It trusted to the names of Rus-
SELL and of GREY ; but if such treat is to imply ap-
probation of the acts of Mona CYFERRALL at Malta,
and of a kindred policy in other governments, then all
we can say is, that the trust in the RUSSELLS and
the GREYS must cease ; and the liberal, fair, and ge-
nerous, though now revolutionary idea of English-
men, must look for mere stanch representatives and
more honest leaders.

HAMBURG,,r. 23.
that of
Sae
The history of all Germany, and especially
Prussia, is Just now being reproduced in the city f
Hamburg. Here, within a small circle, are the
Erna
principles, the same passions, the same blindness and
the same momentary discoutagemente. Thoee'whe
thoroughly comprehend what is at present weer
on at Hamburg, and who know that the
little circle within this town faithfully re.
presents that which is going on in aka*
all the states of Germany, large and small, will per:
baps see somewhat more clearly into the future,
Hamburg, like the rest of Germany, had its little
revolution in the month of March. The free city of
Hamburg had an old worm-eaten government. The
senate, which is almost everywhere paramount, was
composed of members chosen for life, end nom a yen
limited circle of Hamburgian families. Tie
Burgerschalt, or House of Commons, consisted of
about 500 hereditary citiz:ne, fur the most pant
artisan and small tradesmen, whose only merit We
that of being born of Hamburg parents. The ire.
IMMO majority of the tradesmen of Ileunburg, Leg
the entire mass of the people, had nn voice at all is
Use organisation of the state, neither in a judicisl
point of view, whether penal er citil, noe in clerical,
educational, or military matter,.
When in March, 1848, the revolution marl
the tour of Germany, it naturally paid a visit to Has.
burg. Those not represented in the organisation
of
the state, that is to say, the large majority of the
people and even of the tradesmen, then demanded a
complete reorganisation of the state cf Hamburg, see
forced the senate and the Burgerschalt to pass a law
by which they should call together a Constituent
Assembly to reconstitute the entire state, and give to
it all the needful organic laws. Tie Hamborgieer,
more cautious than most of the other people of Ger.
many, required and obtained from the senate end the
Btugerschaft that the law ealline:the Conetitunt
Assembly should, clearly and distinctly, declare that
the constitution adopted by that assembly should he
admitted without needing any further authoiisatice
from either the senate or the Burgersehaft.
This constitution, as also were the oreanic laws,
was on the point of completion when the °capital
of Hamburg by Prussian soldiers was brought about,
Till then neither the senate nor the Burgerschaftlesd
evinced the slightest inclination to oppose the consti-
tution, which approached its completion in the Consti-
tuent Assembly. No sooner, however, were the Pros.
sian bayonets at the disposal of the senate than it
proposed two laws—the one on the press and the other
upon clubs, completely at variance with the new con.
stitution. These were to serve as " feelers." They
wished to know how far they could go eels
regard to the Burgerechaft, and whether there
was anything to fesr from the city or
the mass of people in ease the senate
should find a constitutional majority in the
Burgerschaft. And they were won convinced
at Hamburg, that here, as elsewhere throughout Ger.
many, the mass of the people felt themselves
vanquished, and had no longer any confidence in their
own strength. There was some attempt at agitation
against these two libcrty-cruehing laws, but the miss
of the people remained inactive and callous.
Then the senate thought the time bed arrived for
attacking the new constitution openly, and it se.
nounced that it would shortly make a proposition
to the " Burgerschafe " for coming to an understand.
ing (rereinharen) with the Constituent Assembly a
to what changes were to be made. Tee Constituent
Assembly which feels itself strong in its right,
and in the written law, will doubtless refuse these
propositions of " coming to en understanding";
and the senate and the Burgerechaft, strong
in Prussian bayonets, will very prebtblv follow
in the beaten track of constitutions octroyles. The
two combatants are, brute force and the sentiment
of loyalty; and, as in Prussia and wherever
else people take their stand upon brute force,
they will begin at Hamburg by destroying
even what liberty existed prior to the revolution and
under the old regime of " the good pleasure of the
senate." All this is natural enough. It is desired to
return to, and everywhere to restore, the old regime :
but experience has taught that this regime moot
stand against the progress of the spirit of independ.
once and liberty. It is therefore necessary to restrain
this spirit, and to that end Draconian laws, concealed
under constitutional forms, must be made. The con-
sequence of all this is a complete anarchy;
soldiers and bayonets alone can any longer
have power. All the rest—public authority, comet,-
tion, laws, government, all ie now without moral bane
throughout Germany. " You are the strongest to-
day, It will be our turn to-morrow." Such is thefsel.
lug of, with very few exceptions, the entire mass of
the people ; and even those exceptions, who
would willingly res'gn themselves, although
.under this government without morel basis,
provided it will permit them quietly to
carry on their commercial pursuits, are none the
km convinced that all this, the entire German sys-
tem, is bead solely upon bate force, and that a better
day is coming when the goverment' will no linger
possess this force—a day, when some of the battalion
at Berlin, or elsewhere, will refuse to obey,
and that then all will crumble to the dust.
Such is the general feeling. They have des-
troyed, without knowing what they did, the
profoundest sentiment in the heart of the Gilman
people—the sentiment of loyalty which has arrested
the course of revolution. The German people have
been astonished, undone, disarmed, by the want of
good faith, by the bold-faced illegality of which most
of their governments have given proof ; but this will
pass away, and then Heaven knows what may
happen if, before it does so, some one or other of the
German Governments do not rest the fouedetien stone
of the restored state upon some other basis then that
of brute force—that of muskets and cannon.

COMORN.

The East German Post =take the following
article respecting the actual state of things in and betas
Comore

-`"After the relief of Comore and the raising of the siege
on the 6th of April last, Elapka, then appointed to the es-
mand of the garrison, and his deputy, Colonel Francis
Assermano, formerly a lieutenant in the 2nd regiment of
human, displayed the greatest activity in restoring those
works of the fortras that had been demolished, and in
fortifying the heights of the sand-hills that overlook
Comoro, on the right bank of the Danube. Tee block-
houses, redouts and Aches, were raised on it, 81 al
to render more difficult the capture of this important
point, indispensably requisite for the besiegers. By OW
means, also, the garrison can be sheltered is the wide forti-
fied camp that is for the most part casemated, thus eosbling
the besieged to escape tl:e miasma of the summer; whilst, ea
the other hand, by the fortifying of the rand hill, the %leek-
ading line is four times increased in length, and the demi:
neat points are withheld from the besiegers. Each
indiri-
dual work of the sand-hill will have to be taken with grist
loss before the besieging army can even approach the real
fortress itself. The bridge head on the right bank, or the
Danube fort, has been ovate red with bomb-proof casemate
for 2,000 men, the storming of which require 6,000 bold
men. After the accomplishment of this difficult task by the
Imperial troops, the principal business would still have to he
done, that of taking the fortress on the left bank. To do the
the palatine' line, which is 18,000 feet long, must catardly
fleet of all fall into our hands. The latter, however, is sow
also completely built and finished; extending trom the
Danube as far as the Vagh-Dune, it girds the town sod the
great magazines that are outside of it. With the palettatt
line the bridgehead at the left bank of the Wasp would tall
too, and the garrison would then have to limit themselves
to
the defence of the inner fortress. With respect to the peek
nalline, however, there is this disadvantage for the beeegersi
that the Isle of Schutt, especially the circumjacent district e
Comorn, is flooded for a great portion of the year, and in the
low parts the marsh water never dries up. The eneamelli
of the troops before this spot will constantly generate.dh-
sues, especially for persons born and living in billy district!.
and the bringing up of metering trains would be than, if
not impossible, still exceedingly difficult, while solitary fir
yourable points for so doing could only be obtained by es-
pensive tiresome subaqueous constructions. This °beetle--
one main strength of the fortress—equally ca'
on the left bank of the Wale, where, by _,.s
storming of the less secure bridge-head, on limek
a breach may be made with far less means than in any of the,
other works, there is comparatively very little gamed, id
there is still the huge river to be bridged across, and only the
town and fortress could he battered with greeter eject, Ltd?!
groups of trees still standing on the bank of the Wasp flie
not prove a transitory obstacle. If we take all these &ill'
culttes, by no means trivial ones, into account, we mud

monia procured provisions for at least a year, that
