THIS DAY.

The operations of the launch, which had been
suddenly brought to a stand-still.by the accident of
yesterday, were returned today with increased
rigour, but were chiefly of a preparatory
character. The insufficiency of mechanical force,
which had been complained of, was being remedied
by the addition of no leas than six hydraulic
presses, for which, at the time we write, the piles
were being driven in close under the cradle of
the vessel, so as to give the rams the greatest
possible driving power. Other mechanical arrange-
ments were in progress, such as the substitu-
tion of new beams, the sinking of Trotman's
anchors, lea, and every hope was entertained that
the spring-tide would not be lost, the more espe-
cially as the water actually washed the bottom at
centre of the vessel. The ricer was crowded with
small boats flitting about right in the track of the
vemel, and a few of the general public obtained ad-
mission into the yard.

During November the range of Consols has been
extensive, but not more eo than in October, the difference
between the bigheet and lowest prime on that occasion having
been 4 pet cent., while in the present inotace it has been 31.
The result of the mouth's operations has been to establish a
ries of 14 per cent.
Last night, Mr. dough, the advocate of temperance,

The following items of intelligence ant supplied by govern-
ment :

"From Brigadier General Havelock, Camp If ullenpore,
dated 14th July.
" We have taken every gun from the rebels at Futtebpore,
12 in number ; this has enabled me to equip and take into
field nine excellent guns, instead of ea lighter, and with the
facility of also bringing into action two light six-pounders."
" From Brigadier General Havelock, Camp Pandoo
Buddy,. dated 16th July.
" My troops were twice engaged this morning, and cap-
tured four more guns with trifling loos. A strong advanced
guard under Colonel Tytler, drove the enemy out
of all entrenched positions in front of the vil-
lage of °sung, after • resistance of two hours
and • half, during which the mutinous cavalry,
in considerable force, made frequent attacks against
my baggage, which compelled me to urn evny available
detachment and gun against them. At noon we Mocked
their entrenchment et the bridge over the striam• the

resistance here wee short bat spirited, and the two guns
taken were of large calibre. The Madre. Fusiliers particu-
larly distinguished themselves."
" From General Neill, Allahabed, dated July 16.
" I stencil 227 of the 84th Regiment, partly ia bullock
vans; they are to march twenty-five miles a night
to reach in flee days. I start this _afternoon by
dak, and shall overtake the 141 th and more up
with them; I will go on before them if I ean. I shell
WS no time. The mutineer. are out of caps and concerted
all the detonators into matchlocks. A lioeard from Lucknow
declares the mutineers three are is want of shot, firing atones
keen the guns.
"News has been received that Sir Henry Lawrence was
wounded on his return from en attack on the rebels ad-
vancing on Lock:now on the 2nd inst., end that he auk
wader the effects of his wounds on the 4th inst.
It is reported from Lucknow (on the 10th July) that the

--
" From Brigadier •General Havelock, dated Cawnpore
Cantonoient, 17th July.
" By the bleeeing of Ood I recaptured this place yesterday,
and totally defeated Nana Saab in person, taking more
than oil guns, four of siege calibre. The enemy were strongly
poeted bed a succesiton of villages, and obstinately dis-
puted for one hundred and forty minutes every inch of the
ground, but I was enabled by. flank movement to myitght to
turn his kft, and this gave us the victory. Nana Sahib had
barbarously murdered all the captive women end children
before the engagement. He has retired to Bhitoor, and blew
up this morning on his retreat the Cawnpore ritagazine; he
is said to be etroegly fortified. I hare not been yet able to
get in the return of tilled end wounded, but estimate my toes
at about 70, chiefly from the fire of grape."

corvette I'rimanguet, the mixed transports Durance
and Meurthc, and the gtm-boats Fusee, Avalanche,
and Mitraillc, which had anchored at Gores, put to

accounts from St. Petersburg to the 2nd. Prince
Gortchnkoff had read with great surprise the des-
patch addressed by Count de Buol to Count Pear, to
he communicated to Count do Cavour, and had also
read the reply of the latter. He does not, he says,
understand the step taken by Austria, and cannot
approve of it. There is therefore reason to think
Mat the cabinet of St. Petersburg will unite its
representations to those of France and Eng-
land, to induce Austria not to follow up her
remonstrances to the Sardinian government.
This confirms us in the conviction we had previously
entertained, that Count de Buol will pause in the
path on which he had entered. A rumour had been
in circulation at Vienna, that the cabinet of St. Pe-
tersburg had approved of the attitude assumed by
Austria towards the Picdmontcae government. Some
of the Austrian journals accredited this rumour,
adding that Count de Buol had given to Baron do
Bourqueney, and to Sir Hamilton Seymour, the
most formal assurances that Prince Gortchakoff was
*itourable to the policy of Austria. These aver-1
lions are now formally contradicted, and the reports
circulated at Vienna had not the slightest founda-
tion."

HANOVER, JAN. 19.
The general elections for the Second Chamber took
place yesterday throughout the kingdom. The
result of the whole is not yet known, but of those
received (rather more than half) 33 of the new
deputies are ministerial, and 22 belong to the oppo-
sition. Amongst the latter arc six former ministers
(Mtinchansen, Sttive, Count Bennigsen, Meyer,
Windhorst, and Braun). The city of Hanover has
returned a ministerial and an opposition member,
the university of Gottingen has elected a liberal can-
didate, and Osnabnick and the Harts districts have
done the same, whilst Stade, Lfineburg, and liar-
burg truckle to the ministry. The liberals of the
latter town complain of the great intimidation made
use of on the part of the government to secure the
election of their supporters, threats having been held
out that in case of a return of opposition members
the privileges accorded to Ilarburg, exempting them
from the payment of Stade dues on all foods im-
ported direct from over-sea, would be withdrawn.
With the ruin of their rising commerce staring them
in the face, the result of the election could not of
course be doubtful.

THE AUSTRIAN

IN ITALY.

A letter of the 16th, from Vienna, in Le Nord,
says : " Our eyes are constantly Azad upon Lombardy. It
L publicly understood that a deekive game la being played
at Milan between the government and Austrian Italy. In
foot, if the presence of the sovereigns, preceded by inch
benefits and productive of still greeter hopes, does not suc-
ceed in thawing the inveterate antipathies of the Lombasis,
we must despair for ever of Italy ; she is morally lost for us.

"It Ls known that it is chieflithe nobility of the Lombardo-
Venetian kingdom which has shown the meet persevering
coldness to the government. Everything is being done, at
present, to attach them to it, by flattering their vanity and
holding out to them the hope of political importance. It IN

equivalent to that of duke, and the mete would rank with the
count. The way in which the new congyegatioss' have
been constituted is • of the efforts which the govern-
ment is making to conform to the habits and prejudices of tho
nobili. In all the representative bodies of the other pro-
vinces the rural comma will have seats and votes, but in
the Lorebardo•Venetion kingdom, they are excluded. Yet
the coked, or tenant-fermen, are jut the clam moat devoted

from the agricultund population, which contributed greatly
to foil that audacious attempt."

A despatch from Trieste says:—" The Lloyd
*sow arrived this evening at Trieste with the
kihrorbig news :—The British fleet has taken poli-
tical= of the fort of Bashire and the island of
Karraek."

The Post says that accounts dated Dec. 22 (and
of an earlier date than the above despatch) have
been received from Bagdad, rid Beyrout and Mar-
seilles. These give intelligence from Bushire up
to November 30, a fortnight after the departure
from Bombay of the last division of the fleet. At
the above-named date eight vessels had arrived,
without accident, in Bushire Roads, but the Admiral
and Commander-in-Chief were still absent, and ope-

rations would not be commenced until they mid*
their appearance. Captain Jones, the resident at
Beelike, was about to proceed to Bused= to meet
the naval and military commanders.
Brigadier Chemberleyne's force (say the same
accounts) is operating against the Meeranxyes, at
the express invitation of Drat Mellowed Khan ;
and as soon as this service is performed it will
return within our own frontier. "Should it
be nsecestuT to march any force above the"passis,
in order to protect the Affghans from Persian
attack, our troops would of course advance from

At present, however, Dad Mahomed is believed to
be strong-enough to resist the invasion with which
his territories are threatened."

the Paris Pays :—" A private correspondence from
Bt. Petersburg of the Ifith briny important news. It
appears that the Russians have obtained from the
Court of Pekin the authorisation, which they have
been soliciting for very many years, to trade with the
five Chinese ports which are open to other nations.
This favour has hitherto been withheld from
Russia on tho ground that, for the last hundred
years, she has enjoyed a monopoly of the land
trade, and has also had a legation at Pekin."

The new convention is of the highest importance
for Russian maritime commerce, which the Emperor
Alexander's government appears to desire to stimu-
late by all possible means.
