HANOVER.—We have already published the

SPAIN.

We have received the journals and correspondence
of Madrid of the 7th, containing the particulars of
an insurrection which took place on that morniug,
commencing at daybreak.
It appears that the movement was commenced by
one or two bat alions of the Regiment Espagna, and
was soon joined by a portion of the populace. The
military was immediately called out, having been
prepared for the emergency by previous rumours, and
cannon loaded with grape and shrapnell were freely
used. The fighting continued for about four hours,
after which the insurrection gave way. General
Fulgosio, the Captain-General of Madrid, was
mortally wounded. The capital was declared in
a state of siege. The military casualties are
said to amount to 600: 80 of the insurgent soldiers,
and 30 civilians, including many of the upper classes,
were taken prisoners. Two chiefs of battalion were
killed. Our correspondent says, that at the moment
of closing his despatch, government were about to
have all the serjeants of the insurgents shot, as well
as three civilians. Three thousand reale were found
in the pocket of one sergeant, and six hundred in
that of a soldier. Another outbreak was expected on
the Bth. _ .

We append the letter of our correspondent :
MADRID, MAY 7.
Another insurrection has broken out at Madrid,
of a much more dangerous kind than that of the 26th of
March, and attended with more severs results. The gist
shot was fired about a quarter to four, that is, at peep of
dawn. The fighting might be said to be over at seven, or
half-past, although here and there dropping shots were I
Gard later. The government obtained the victory. The
lon of killed and wounded on both sides was most severe.
The gravity of this outbreak lies in the feet of its base being
a military pronunciameote. One battalion (not two, as is
commosly supposed) of the regiment Espagna, was the part
of the army which pronounced. Fulgpsiu, the captain-general
of New Castile, and chief military authority at Madrid, has

rE LATE RAILWAY ACCIDENT.

SHRIVENHAM, FRIDAY.
The sufferers by the late terrible accident, with one or two
exceptions, are progressing satisfactorily.—Mr. F. W. Slade,
a barrister, came down this morning to visit Captain Blair,
with whom he is on terms of intimate friendship. The gal-
lant sufferer still retains sensibility, and, by the advice of his
friends, has this day made his will. Although the unfortunate
gentleman may linger some days, no hope of his recovery is
entertained.—Mr. J. Leahy, of Stowmarket-house near Cork,
arrived here last evening, and having viewed the body of the
fourth deceased, identified him u his servant, J. Mahoney. Sir
Alexander Mackenzie's valet has also been identified. Au
inquest on their remains will be held to-morrow.—Of
the patients at Swindon, all, it is hoped, are recovering, ex-
cept one—Mr. Arthur A. Lee, of Kidderminster, and Wad-
barn College, Oxford, who is in a precarious state.—ln addi-
tion to the wounded persons mentioned in the list already
published, the following have sustained injury : Mr. Red-
ditch, of Stzurton, in the county of Somerset, who has
concussion of the brain and severe laceration of the face ;
and Mr. W. Ellis, nephew of Mr. J. Ellis (included in
knee-
firmer statement), who has sustained an injury on the
joint.

GERMANY;

PRUSSIA.—The intelligence of interest brought
by the German mail is that relating to the affairs of
Posen. Our Cologne correspondent gives the latest
intelligence from that quarter.
COLOGNE, MAW 10.
The latest accounts from Posen show that the insurrection
is still progressing, but accurate details are wanting, as
the postal communications are interrupted on many points.
It appears, however, that Mieroslawski hu fallen upon
Gauen, the old capital of Posen. A battle took place on
the sth at Bamter, but the particulars have not transpired.
Btefanski, who bad been declared dictator pro. tem., has
been taken prisoner. The folio wing circular has been for-
warded to the Prussian authorities:
In the name of the German Bepuhlic.—The Polish oorps of partisans
to the General Commission in Pmen.—The CcrAmander-in-Cliiefol-
f of
the Partisan Corps orders the General Commission of Posen as
lows: 1. To suspend all business, so far so they are concerned; to
erase carrying out any decrees; to reil up the public treasuries, or to
place them under the core of two Poles and a German and, until
further notice, not to issue any orders under the title of a Pruwdan
author) r. To communicate the forgoing to all subordinates in
office.—(Signed) The Chief, Kaorowent.
It would appear that Prussia is resolved to carry on the
war in Posen with redoubled vigour, tir the government has
determined to send 10.000 more troops to the eeat of war.
Meantime the Berlin Zeitungs- [[site states that a telegraphic
despatch has arrived in Berlin, conveying the information
that the Emperor of Russia ashes resolved to restore the king-
dom of Poland. and to place the Duke of Leuchtenberg on
the throne. This statement stands in great need of con-
firmation.
A complaint hu been lodged against the Bishop of Oresen,
on account of the active part he has taken in furthering the
Polish cause, by urging the priests in his diocese to arouse
the people to take arms.
AUSTRIA.—Wehave received the Vienna journals
of the 7th.
The national guard and the students of Vienna
have united to petition the ministry to hasten the
meeting of the chambers, and for that purpose to
publish a provisional law of election. They demand
that there be no census of eligibility, and that three-
fourths of the upper chamber be elected, and only
one-fourth named by the crown.
Of the seven Austrian deputies to the Frank frt
o
Diet three are for close union with Germany. Baron
Andrian is the fourth—a most liberal man. The
Frankfort meeting has addressed a brotherly missive
to the inhabitants of Buhemia, Silesia, and Moravia-
It is said that the Emperorof Auatria has concluded
ivith the Czar an offensive and defensive alliance
London, England, 1848-05-13

The examinations by the government inspectors for
grants by the Privy Council Committee on Education
are going on busily. Upwards of seventy gentlemen
have applied for augmentation salaries in this distrisix
ct,
end their claims were laboriously investigated for
or seven hours daily throughout the week. The in-
wectors (Messrs. Gordon and Gibson) proceed to
Glasgow next week, and in June will visit Aberdeen
and Inverness. Numerous applications from managers
and trustees of schools have also been sent to the
council, and by the end of this year a large infusion
of financial strength will have been communicated to
the educational system in this country. In the case
of the Free Church 'schools a difficul instruction, at first
experienoed in regard to religious but
that has been got over by the insertion of the follow-
ing clause in the model trust deeds: —"No ohild
shall be required to be present at the instruction
given from the Bible whose parent or guardian shall'
object thereto, or be required to learn any catechism
or other religious formulary, or to attend any Sunday
school or place of worship to which respectively his ,
or her parents or guardians shall object." With this
clause the Privy Council has declared itself satisfied,
whiie the church does not force it on any eong e the
rega-
tion or school, leaving each to accept d
government grant as they think advisable, or to
stipulate for modifications to any extent they think
fit. The great majority, however, are taking the
grants in the manner described.
The state of the unemployed, both in Edinburgh
and Glasgow, 'a exciting much anxiety. In the latter
city about 5,000 schedules have been lodged, but
employment has been obtained fur only 2,240 indi-
viduals.

citizens should be moulded. The whole inner man
was to be brought out and developed in this slaspe.
There was one national religion, one national mo-
rality. A dissenter could not have been educated at
all, cr must have been educated wrongly. In this
case religion was not an adjunct, it was a necessity,
and this too in the national form. The same observa-
tions apply to the governments existent in certain
periods in tl.e middle cges. Now no one can say
that this description of soci, ty is at all applicable to
that of the: present day. Everything, on the con-
trary, tells us that we are advancing towards
a period when unity of religion can no more
be a necessary conclitioa of political unity. We
need not argue the question whether this is desirable
or not, for the simple reason that the decision of this
question will not have the slightest influence on the
fact. The immense) development of all the intellectual
faculties iu the mass of mankind has split it for ever
into parties religious, moral, arid political; and educa-
tion, in its ancient sense, is no longer practicable. At
present we can see no possibility of a state's inter-
ference with the education of a nation being extended
with any profit, beyond the cultivation of the princi-
pal intellectual faculties. In a word, until some great
revolution, o' the nature of which we are iu the dark,
happens, we must limit thefunction of national educa-
tors to the mere giving of information, the rest must
be lett to the influences of the hearth and the altar.

which, it is said, would come to a head during the
cattle show. From Kilkenny the three chiefs pro-
cceded to Carrick-on-Suir, where the clubs were also
harangued, and the fermentation already existing
quickened to a still greater heat. The travellers were
expected iu (Unmet on Tuesday. Mr. Smith
' O'Brien I hear, appeared very agitated ; and I
well he might, for he plays a tremendous
game, in which the odds are all against him,
for ere this night shall have clo,ed Mr. Smith
O'Brien will most probably be in the hands of the
authorities. The act suspending the Habeas Cmpus
was published here this morning, after the
arr:val of the Banshee steamer, which brought i
the act to Ireland, and immediately a war-
taut was prepared for the arrest of Mr. Smith
O'Brien, under its provisions. At 2 p.m. to-day,
a Castle messenger was despatched southward, by
rail, to capture the hon. gentleman, and he is accom-
panied by a squadron of the 17th Lancers, to enforce
the capture if necessary.
Twelve anvils, says the Limerick Reporter, are for
ever ringing in Carrick-on-Suir, each turning out
daily and nightly scores of "queenly" weapons, and
in the very face of tke military and police. This is
exaggeration. A private letter informs me that the
universal feeling is that of alarm and terror. Num-
bers of the inhabitants of the better class have fled the
town, and troops of all arms are pouring in like a
flood. The catholic clergy are labouring most zeal-
ously to allay the movement.
In the south Mr. O'Gorman, of whom I have given
some details in my letter of Monday, inspected and
addressed the Sarsfield, Brian Ilorimhe, Mitchel, and
Hugh O'Neil clubs, on Saturday evening. He ex-
horted all " to cruel and organise into sections, and
prepare in every way that became men." (Tremen-
dous shouts of " Yes, yes.") On Sunday he visited
Killaloe ; then Newport, where he detailed
the minutes of a conversation he had with
the Rev. Dr. Vaughan, P.P., of a most discouraging
nature. At Newport a club was " formed on the
spot." " I am," said Mr. O'Gorman, "in presence
of the ancient Palace of Kincora, the residence of the
Irish Kings ; let the club then be called the Kincora."
And so it was; but the enrolment was scanty; fifty
members out of some thousands. On Sunday even-
ing Mr. O'Gorman revisited Limerick, and proceeded
to the Treaty Stone, where he reviewed the Treaty
Club. On Monday he proceeded to .he county of
Clare to harangue and organise. The police followed
his movements and took ample noes.
One would suppose from all this that the southern
leader was already at the head of a formidnble arma-
ment; but I am in a position to allay any apprehen-
sions of that nature. I have seen letters from Lime-
rick to-day and yesterday, from parties known to me
as enthusiastic confederates, which assure me that
1 this is all froth and vapour. There will be no rising

The solidity of the market for public securities v as
severely tried to-day by the announcement in eeccad
editions of the morning papers of an insurrection in
Ireland actually commenced. The funds under
such eircurnsiancts displayed much fit r.ar.;.:.s.
whole extent of the decline from 861, the highest
price of the morning, to 834, after the receipt of the
Irish intelligence, was only lfr per cent. As the
news was discussed doubts were rapt-. said as to its
authority in the first place, which settled down into
an opinion of much exaggeration at least, as not
confirmed at all by private letters received from
Dublin by the same packet in the leading
particulars. Consols recovered subsequently to
86, but left off 851 to both to. money
and account. It .•duced Threes were 851,
to 6. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 861 to 1. The
Bank broker was a aller of Exchequer Bills, whe-
thee for the Bank or nut did not appear, and subse-
quently another influential seller appeared a seller
also, the effect of which was to reduce the wets to
303. to 358. premium. India Bonds, 2.53. to 29a. pre-
mium. Long Annuities, 8 13-16 to 15-16. Bank

Bank broker, it was said, was a purchaser of Consols
on the fall upon the Irish news.
The foreiga market, as might be expected in a .
time of such domestic disturbance was alinost utirely
neglected, with prices lower. Business was done,
and that only to the most inconsiderable extent, in
some half-dozen stocks only. Brazilian were quoted
69 to 71. Meximai,l7 to Spanish Fives, 111 to

guese, 18 to 19. Russian, done at 991, were called

From Oxfordshire the accounts of the potato crop,
as we learn from a good authority, are quite
encouraging. From some personal inspection on an
extensive estate, and general inquiry in Essex, we
have reason to believe the potato disease has made
little progress there. There cannot be much question,
however, of the general ravages of the disease. In
such circumstances it is consolatory at least to know
that never were the crops of turnips and beans more
abundant. As for the last two years there has been
a deficiency of food also for cattle, as well as for
human kind, there is thus the better security for the
supply of vegetable as well as of animal food for the
public.

In the most dangerous situations they were to be seen
hastening from place to place to console the sufferers and to
assist the surgeons in dressing their wounds, many of them
carrying the wounded on handbarrows to the hoepitals.
One of the journals says : " The cure of Saint Merry not
only hastened to follow the example of his brethren in placing
his church at the disposal of the physicians, and furnivbing
them with medicaments and other necessaries, but might
himself be seen, during the short intervals between the
volleys of musketry, which might at any moment recom-

Before Mr. Commissioner Lew.
IN RE THE RIM CHARLES WETHERELL.—SEQUES.
TBATION OP A Ltvireo.—ln this OA!, which has repeatedly
occupied the attention of the court. judgmenr was delivered
on Saturday. Mr. Wetherell, rector of Byfield, North-
ampton, has been some time in the Queen's prison, and on a
vesting order tke provisional as,ignee had obtained a segues-
tr,tion of his living, and had applied to the court for an
order cn the Bishop of Peterborough, in whose dioeese the
living was situate, to pay the money at present in his hands,
and which amounted to 7001. 14s. I id., into this court, which
was refused on the two grounds, that there were proceedings
pending, and that this court had no power to make such an
order.—Mr. C coke represented the Bishop of Peterborough,
and Mr. Nichols appeared for the provisional assignee.—The
learned Commissioner was of opinion thee the provisional
assignee stood in the Fame position as any other assignee, and
in his appointment a sequestration could be obtained. The
Bishop of Peterborough stood in the same character as a
sheriff, and could be made amenable to this court. lie did
nut think the Court of Queen's Beach would interfere in
such a case, and he was clearly of opinion that this court

CAUSE OF FEVER IN WESTMINSTER.

[From the Third Report of the Metropolitan Sanitary Commission.]
The case which we have now been considering is
one that displays the necessity of placing all the parts of one
and the same system under the control and management of
one and the same authority. Little good is effected by attend.
ing to the main trunks without paying the like attention to
the branches, or by cleansing the large sewers and ne-
glecting the houm.drains. The combined aiea of the
smaller conduits of the system of sewerage is greater than
that of the trunks ; as the area of the capillaries of the body is
greater than that of the main arteries. To flush and cleanse
the great trunk, and to allow filth to stagnate and putrefy
in the smaller conduits, is to remove the distant danger and
to looter that which is closer and more potent. The dean
doubtless felt that he was accomplishing a great deal by
emptying and cleansing so many cesspools, amounting in all
to eighteen ; he did not know that directly underneath the
public school, directly underneath several of the houses, in
close proximity with others, and communicating more or less
remotely with all, there existed and had existed, (or
years an immense depot of filth, fourfold more extensive
(taking only the p►rt already explored) than the entire sur-
face which bad been cleansed—an accumulation of filth on
the dangerous nature of which all the medical witnesses
strongly insist, of whose existence the residents had no sus•
picion, and which was as entirely unknown even to the offi-
cer specially charged with the care of the sewerage of the
place, that he declares its direction, its extent, and its con-
di,ion, to be all "a mystery." Under such a system as we
contemplate, and of the absolute necessity of which we
regard this as a striking example, this degree of
ignorance would be impossible the position of every
conduit, however small, of every house-drain u well
as of the larger branches and of the main trunks,
would be recorded, and the preservation of this knowledge
would not be allowed to depend on the traditions of the
work men, superintendents, and owners, but would be secured
against the possibility of loss or error by plans carefully kept

specie. the Cambria had reached New York. Cot-
ton-holders continued to ask former rates, but buyers
were holding off in anticipation of a decline. The

more ti an equal to the demand ; the reports of the
growing crops continude favourable. Exchange on

The whig meeting of ratification is to take place
to-night. It was intended to give form to the re-
sponse of the whigs of New York to the nominations
made by the National Convention. The meeting
had been postponed for more than a fortnight, I
at the solicitation of a few professed whigs who I
wished time to make up their minds whether
to support the ticket or not. Ample time had been
given them for this purpose, and it is to be presumed
that their intentions were fixed, and that they were
ready either to act with the whigs in support of the
nominations, or to join ono of the several parties
arrayed against them. By constant and clamorous
effort the loco foals had succeeded, to a certain ex-
tent, in creating ad impression:abroad that there was
&esffection in the whig ranks in New York.
The Courier and Inquirer says: According to pre-
sent prospects, Taylor and Fillmore will sweep the
field. The whig party will come into power by a
majority even greater than that of 1840, and will
have the wisdom and good fortune, we trust, to retain
the fruits of their coming victory. The country will
enjoy the blessings of a whig administration.
The whigs in every part of the Union, from Boston
to New Orleans, are rallying to the standard which
their representatives in National Convention raised
aloft.
With falling prices in Europe for our produce in
the face of large new crops coming forward here,
there would be little reason for new enterprises—even
though the political condition of Europe were
one of settled tranquillity. But while all there is
uncertain and fermenting, there can be little tempta-
tation to adventurers from this side, and hence stag-
nation mat be looked for in our business.
The Courier and Inquirer has received infor-
mation, not only that the treaty is ratified and that
the ratifications have been exchanged, but that several,
detachments of our army returning from Mexico have'
already reached the United States. Peace, therefore
actually exists, although for certain reasons it
has not been officially proclaimed by the
President. The order of the day of the 29th
