avading the force of truth, as well as to be shown iti
valets and oessietency.

From the results, then, of the two months we have
named we extend our compithiaon to Wow of the
Itight months in which key are included. Let us see
it July and Aeguet ore mere pet epo. lit of titan year,ll
chosen by the r. guess dexterity of fr., trude staler-
ticians from out a mem of contrary facts, end put
forward to delude an andiecerning pubic. We
find the exit 4711 of the tit eight mouths of the,
weeent year e :needing these of the sane spate in
147, by 3,893,5241. ; and we find them exce. ding
th, se of the correapond,ng period in 1848. by no lees
than 7,570,1081. ! We :11..u1d tetlly I,ke to know
what the friends of protecrio.l would have in the wit
of proof if this does nut eutlice—a stride of more than
three millions and a half beyond its perch ceesor,
during a tees na of unparalleled patio and disaster ;
and a funk er strieie of as mu-h and more daring the
next revolution of t• e mercantile year.

Oar locomotive- able oppown • were ever ready to
aver that the to ndency of the reform. d a mmerc:al
policy of the country was to dis nrb their imagivary
balance of trade, and to lead as to increase our imports
over and above our exports, as if anybody
would send na commodities for nothing, or as if
foreigners were so rich, that they were ready to sell
!o es at ir.definue or uilmited credits. The answer.
w' ieh every inn art OAP peek' teas did not absolutely
611;4 him to the plainest and most obvious law of ex-
change applicable as obvi .udy to the tea& of nations
as to the hairline of individual men, consisted in the
reiteration of the t wain, that if we contieu d to buy
fur.irn food or raw materiels of manufacture, it was
rtain that we were paying for tnem e me bow,
whit her we were able to point out the day when, orl
the mode in which those reimbu.sements were mad
Three years ego, the eno..stiolists had a theory that
we were p !yiug for our " surplus imports," an they
absurdly called them, in grill. The bullion in the cot-
ter- of the Bank happened to rue low, at d ccordinBly
we were in tic hapless condition of hang Lied
to death, dralried of our treasure, and 1.-ft to tae flurry
of tureigners whether, after milking' of ear gold was
gore, they would g ye as credit fur the forth -r sup-
plies of cotton and corn we might still contieue to
need. But when the gold began to c one back, and
t'.e bullion vault in Threadneedle-street becr.n.e
choked Intl once more, then that notable crotchet
died, and we have sine hear I nothing more of it.
The brood cf delusions is not however, extirpated;
and accordingly we have since been import Mer to a
rest extent, if Messrs. HERRIES and DISRAELI may
be believed, besond whet we have been exieirtinj ;
and coneequently we have eituer been all 'he while
sinking daily decper into the sloeglr of in-
debtedness, or we have been purchasing large quan-
tities of raw produce and toed out of capitol.
Mr. DISRAELI was quits impatient to wring the ad-
missions in tabula form out of the Bard of Trade.
Dining the latter part of last session be was impor-
.ui ate and sometimes rather ireitabln in his demands
that ti.e Mares of that department should "be no
I roger withted.l." He ace si nicAliat at al ss to nu-
deire.and the cause of the delay in producing them.
Well, he has got them now, and we certainly shall b.
a little carious to hear what he has to say of them ;
for a more pe and imp-act-cab's set of pluin
figures no g ntle men juggler ever had to deal with.

apt recome mutation to people in their st.o dim In a
very short I.e.iod the refugees were. h teever, bronsht
to the unpleasant conviction that they were nothing
more than ceremeninusly guarded cripplers. Tee
chiefs were lodged within the ci' 1:* , cf which the
gates are shut at sunset; the offiee.a within the in-
closure of the town wall, through %%tech he guard
prevents all egress, exclit towards the camas %Caere
•he soldiers are provided for in tents, p rked in, and
guarded from the open country by a line of Tetki•h

a deaf ear to by the Pacha, whose prisoners s ,on
tound cause for deep anxiety in the intelligence v. eerie
reached them from Celmetantinocle as to the perti-
nacity of the ecru& made by the Iteseien and Aus-
trian cab'nets for their extradition.
At length canto the startling iritelli4e• co from
Stamboul, that a Russian gene rot had n :ivel with
an autograph letter from the Cz it, denier die gin tee
most peremptory terms the del.wy of the II f ;eve
Pelee, and advising that of the iluvgariens tot e
cibinet of Austria. Notes were sim tit :ne ,usl) pre-
sleeted by the Russian and Austrien rine .-nta.ives,
making the escape of a single refeg. e a ca.us beili,
and hinting, most insultingly, at tne pr sue' at a
hundred thousand men (?) on tae Ta kish rem-
tier. A cabinet council had been held on the e
oommunications, and there ensued a turbulent debate,
in the course of which the effects of the cabal ag eine
Rechid Pacha and of the liwish expenditure of It as.
elan bribes was painfully apparent. The majo+y of
the council was to favour or the extraditi ro, the ins.
jority of the ministry against it. Udder these cir-
cumstances the ministry put to the oppoAtion the
hypothesis of the refuges embraelng Ise:mists,
when, of course, all wee forced, however unw.l-
- to admit that no true Mahomeoans eyelid give
them up.
The ministry hereupon despatched a reverend
liollah to examine the re fngees 'sprawl ly, sad expose
to them the state of the case, whilst timer .us
friends in Constantinople recommended the a tte.-
tion of the suggestion as the only watts of wilvieti a.
No words can express the consternntion of the little
community at this intelligence. Atter the first sur-
prise was over, many of the Hatgeriens exclaimed,
" Better the Russians than the Austrians—better
Mahomedanisen than the Russians ; " aed there
appeared some prospect of the while camp embracing
Islamism. A council of the chief* was :
held at Iteeauthts, where Bem at once declared that
his life was devoted to hostility to tho Iteselane
and that he eagerly accepted of the snag. stion. I had
almost forgotten to remark that the Meilen promised
at the same time the maintenance cf their rank end
the liberal allowance customary in the Turkish
armies. Generals Kmellet and Steen came to the
same resolution, and several peraoaag. s were for tem-
porising. When Kossuth's turn came ti speak, he
briefly reminded his companions, in his imp, eas:ye
language, that now, in a strange land, were all au-
thoritative bonds were sundered, eech one was at
liberty to set according to his own views, but that, for
hie part, welcome, if needs be, the axe or gibbet,
but curszs on the tongue that dares to make him so
infamous a proposition." Our gallant countryman,
Guyon, followed, declaring that no human power
should induce him to swallow even a bunch of grapes
op .n cnmpulsion. General Dembinski, and Octant
Zeracyski, were equally determined. The example
of their chiefs was so effective, that of about 200
soldiers and 40 officers, who had expressed their wil-
lingeess to '••b; :re Carle:lenity, the soldiers, to a
men, charged their initiators, and there remain only
three generslo, and some twenty officers, firm in their
revive. Bern took immediately a public step, and it
