VIE TRANSYLVANIAN DIET.
KLAUSENBURG, Nov. 21.
The Transylvanian Diet was opened yesterday
by the government commissioner, who read an
imperial rescript, calling upon the assembly to
maturely consider the best means to be adopted for
the final settlement of the political situation of
Transylvania. In their deliberations to this effect
the Diet is exhorted to keep in view the interest of
both Transylvania and Hungary as properly under-
stood by the intimate connexion of the former with
the Hungarian crown.
The sole and exclusive subject for discussion
which has been laid before the Diet is the revision
of article 1 of the law passed by the Transylvanian
Diet of 1848, relative to the union of Hungary and
Transylvania.

A FRENCH VISTF 01, TIM OUTBREAK lit JAMAICA.
—The Debate of yesterday says :—" The fresh information
which has reached us respecting the rising in Jamaica con-
siderably diminished the importance of the movement, and
eves reduces it to a very small matter. Mention is made,
it is true, of a conspiracy said to be on the point of break-
ing out, but it has remained a mere project,
and the partial rising of which so much has been
made is said to have been the result of an
iocident foreign to the plot. These rectifications admitted,
people ogres in considering that fear has greatly exagge-
rated the matter, and that the repmesion has been ef a
violence out of all proportion with the denser the colony
can have incurred. This is the opinion of part of the press
not only in France bat in England. We must here make
a distinction, however, in favour of the Babb government.
We shall, io fact, state nothing not already known in mil-
lion the fact, that in the English colonies the local authori-
ties enjoy great independence with regard to the home
government, which leaves them In many oases the absolute
responsibility of their acts."

THE TRADE OF NEWPORT, SOUTH WALRIL—We
are pleased to notice that the trade of the pert at present
exhibits considerable briskness. Dario, the week the btni-
ness at the docks, especially in imports, has shown un-
wonted activity, owing in griestmemure to the recentf trans.
ter from Gloucester of large shipments of grain or the
Midland counties, mad whither the cargoes am conveyed
from this port by the London and North Western Railway
Company. As many as 14 vessels laden with grain and
bonded stores, besides • number of other ships, entered
the port by Wednaday eveniag's tide, and some fifty sail
same up theriver on Thursday night, and so busy were the
docks on that tide that the " red flag," a signal that no
more vessels could enter owing to the number passing in and
out, wee hoisted, and one large ship was obliged to return
to the Spit nail next morale,. All the vessels, we under-
Mend, bringing imports. take cargoes outwards.. The
Dock Company and Monmouthshire Railway Company
afford every facility for expediting the discharge and load•
ing of cargoes, se an instance of which we may Mete that
one vessel commenced unloading grain on 'Monday morning,
on Wednesday the cargo was delivered from theenin railwa
they
trucks at Burtoonc•Trest, sod on Thursday evg
ship left the port with an outward cargo. The men em-
loyed at the docks are working during unusually long
hours. As a further indication of the improved condition
of the town generilly it may be mentioned that, whereas
some time sins untenanted dwellings were by no means
exceptional, now houses of every deocriptioa are Limon
wholly occupied, and In several mess we have heard of
landlords advancing the rents. May we not attaibute these
favourable signs, in scene degree at lout, to the spirited
promotion of AU Alexandre scheme, and roped them u
bright omens of the mach lancer messure of prosperity
which may be confidently anticipated when our leviathan
docks (fox the construction of which the oontrect has been
let) shall be eximpleted aad brought into active operatics
