LA PLATA.

In reference to the new treaty, ad referendum,
passed by M. Lepredoar, the Messages de Mode
Video, of the 24th June, oontains the followirg :
The governor of the Argentine confederation has con-
cluded a treaty of peace, ad referendum, with the plmi-
potentiary of the French republic • and this project ig to be
sent to France u soon as it shall lave received the rivi of
S B. Don Manuel Oribe, lawful president of the oriental
republic of Uruguay, and ally of the Argentine govern-
ment. . .

It does not belong to us to appreciate this di,riournent of
Admiral Lepredoer's second mission ; of this we shall treat
at an opportune moment, but we may say to-day, that this
malt is out what WAS to be expected by the government and
I the assembly of France. The severity of the terms
used by Dermal de la Mitts at the tribune
when he qualified the project of a treaty of last year, were
soon forgouen; the overwhelming appreciation of it by M.
Dens, in hie luminous report, was not much taken into
account; awl the vote of the legislative assembly was con-
sidered is the light of an incident that was to be regretted,
hopes being entertained that European complications would
ultimately reader French representants less particular
(esigeants). as we have reason to believe, we are rightly
informed this new project ilitrtrs as much from tre modifier.-'
tioas made by the French government to the Lepredour
treaty—modifications which, by the way, were rejected by
Rome as the first project of the Lepredonr Convenuon—dit-
fend from the ultimatum presented by M. Deffaudis. Tuns
instead of getting on, we are retrograding, that Is, the more
ambassadors we send to Rotas the less is he disposed to
yield to our just demands.
The rumour of the approaching disembarkation of onr
troops at Montevideo gams consistence. The approaching
arrival of the steamer Archimedes is a:so spoken of, as well
as the probability of some visits from M. Lepredour in the
hosts of Cerrito.

humbly to approach your Majesty with the strongest as-
surances of undeviating loyalty to your crown and of 'lacer •
and fervent attachment to your person.
" We consider it our duty to declare to your Majesty that
11 we regard with feelings of surprise and indignation the at-
tempt made by a foreign potentate to interfere with yens
Majesty's undoubted prerogative, and to aseume the right
of nominating archbishops sad bishnps within these realms,
and of conferring upon them territorial reek and jurisdiction
" We, therefore, humbly venture to express our earnest
trust that your Majesty will maintain en° preserve inviolate
your Majesty's supreme authority, as by law established, is
these realm., and our cudident relit-Ass in your Majesty's
wisdom for the immediate adoption of such measures mann

NEW WINDSOR.
TLe following address of the Mayor and Ctrpo.
ration of Windsor was this day presented to her Majesty, at
the castle :
TO THE QUEEN'S MOST MCMILLIN? MAJESTY.

"The loyal and dutiful addressOf the Illeic7r,liciermen,
and Burgesses of the borough of New Windsor, in council
assembled.
" May it please your Majesty,—We, your Majesty's loyal
and dutiful eubjecte, the mayor, aldermen, and burgesses cf
the borough of New Windsor, desire to approach your
Mcleaty with the assurance of our devoted loyalty to your
crown, and of our cordial attachment to your royal prison.
We humbly consider it our duty to declare to your ht•jes'y
that we regard with surprise and indignation the intuit offered
to your royal:prerogative and to the constitution of this coon-
toy by the Bishop of Rome, in attempting to arrogate to
him,olt the nomination of papal bishop' to territorial jinni-
died. a within this realm, even to the complete restoration
of a Roman enholie Lierarell throughout Great Britain,
which proceeding we humbly conceive as tending ultimately
to destroy the religious liberty and toleration at present en-
joyed by every denomination of Christians under the nappy
sway of your Majesty's royal seAvtre.
•• We, therefore, humbly pray that your Majesty may take
such measure' a* your wisdom may determine for the mime-
dnte and absolute reprevion of this attempt of the Bishop
of Rome, and to vindicate the outraged churcli nod consittu-
lion (dour beloved country, and to mainta:u their tights,
their honour, end their independence.
"Given under tie common seal of the raid mayor, alder-
men, and buraessea of the avid borough, at the Guildhall of

year of your Majesty 'a reign.

GERMANY.

The following are the insolent terms proposed by
Austria, and which led to the calling out of the
Prussian landwehr, a step which, as we have seen,
led to the modification of the terms of the cabinet of
Vienna : 1. To evacuate Hesse Cassel within a week;
2. To evacuate Hamburg within six weeks.; and
h,3. Solemnly and formally to renounce the union.
A letter from Fulda of Nov. 9, says that at 10 in the
morning of that day the Prussian troops quitted
Fulda, and about two in the afternoon Prince Thorn
and ;Taxis, commander-in-chief of the federal troops,
made his entry into Fulda. It was said at Hanau
that both Bavarian and Prussian troops would evacuate
the whole country, and the troops of the electorate
return; but this is unlikely.
A Vienna correspondent of the &clam Zeilung,
says, that in the event of a war between Prussia and
the federal troops, the Austrio-Bohemian army corps
would join the Saxon army.
Our correspondent writes as follows :

BERLIN, Nov. 10.
The position of affairs is the same es yesterday.
Negotiations are beiog carried on with Vienna.
A special envoy has been dispatched to the court
of St. Petersburg.
The mobilisauon is proceeding with great rapidity.

The following is the_postsoript of a letter from oar
own correspondent at Frankfurt, dated Nov. 10 :
"There is every reason to believe, from the tarn
that affairs have taken, that the subaltern Prussian
officer who commanded his men to fire on the Ba-
varians and the Austrian be
at the village of
Broosell, near Folds, will be sacrificed. A court-
martial hue been appointed to try him, and it la ex-
pected be will be at least cashiered."

ST. STEPHEN, COLEMAN-STREET.

Yesterday, a meeting of the ratepayers and in-
habitants of this parish wu held in the vestry room of the
parish church, to take tato considered= the propriety of
forwarding a memorial to the Bishop of London on the pre-
sent crisis of the Protestant church and other matters in re-
lation thereto, and to resolve on a vote of thanks to Lord
John Russell for his truly patriotic letter to the Bishop of
Dothan. The chair wu taken by the senior churchwarden.
The CHAIRMAN believed that most of those present were
aware that it we intended at the lut meeting that a memo-
rial eboald be agreed to, end a vote of thanks d, to Lord
John Riese% at that the matter went off on a point of
order, no notice having been given of those objects, No one
could doubt the strides making by the Romish chnreh in
this etractry—nor could they believe that the character of
that =or= for intolerance had changed; it was tharetens the
more incumbent to meet the attempts now makiejte keg
this country under the spiritual subjection of the Y. He
concluded by calling=

PRESTON.

A correspondent says—Early on Wednesday morning it
was rumoured that a number of the arches of the railway
viaduct, now in canoe of construction over the valley of the
Ribble, tad been blown down during the night. On ela-
mina•ion, it appeared that five of the arches of this stupen-
dous undertaktog had really given way to such an sxtent
that, it is expretid, they most be entirely tak.n down.
Whether this damage is really attributable to the wind, or
some other cause, is not clear. A tall chimney fell through
the roof of a bakehouse in the West end Shambles, in
which a man was engaged at th► time in making
bread; though tbe bricks, slates, &c., were scattered
close to him, be escaped uninjured. A garden wall,
belonging to Dr. Brown, in Wincklerequare, was levelled
with the ground. Almost every street in the town is strewn
with sieve, tiles, bricks, end fragments of chimney-pots,
scarcely a house having escaped the violence of the hurri-
cane. Such a storm has not occurred in tht town within
the memory of that venerable and • often mentioned indi-
vidual, the " oldest inhabitant." At the time this account
wu despatched (4 p.m. Wednesday) the wind still con•
tinned unountally high, giving promise of another tempeetu-
ow night.
BRISTOL.

The Coquette, for Trinidad, drove on shore in the heavy
wind of last night; and the Norms, for Africa, oleo drove •
little. It is n ported that a schooner, name unknown, is on
shore above the river. The Cornwell, from Heyle, went
on shore In the river abreast Nelson Point. The Victory,
fee Watotford, has put bark into Bristol; the other steamers
which left with her have been heard nothing cA.

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, JONI 2.
The Emperor has suddenly left for Warsaw, owing,
it is said, to the tenor of a telegraphic message re-
ceifed from Prince Schwarz.nberg, who has returned
from the Polish capital, but it is not known whether
be arrived early enough to confer with the Emperor
previous to his departure, or whether the Emperor
met his prime minister on the road. The whole
affair is shrouded in darkness. and the most absurd

rumours are in circulation. One rumour says that
the Emperor of Russia has spoken very unfavourably
et the stubborn policy pursued by the Austrian
cabinet, and to have even hinted at the necessity of
the present ministry resigning their functions, where-'
upon the prime minister, Prince Schwarzanberg, re-
tired in high dudgeon, and, after acquainting his
imperial master, by telegraph, with the sentiments of
the Czar, left Warsaw, en route for Vienna. I give
this rumour, as it seems the most credible of them
all, and accounts for the sudden departure of
the Emperor. It is quite certain, at any
rate, that fears have been entertained fur
some days in ministerial circles of the result of the
confereuees in Warsaw. The autograph note from
the King of Prussia to the Emperor of Russia is said
to have contained certain demands which can only he
complied wi:h by • chance of ministry here. The
journals of the capital display a much less arrogant
tons on the German question than previously ; even
the Lloyd, which has hitherto bees the most warlike
of them all, advises this morning a peaceful solu-
tion of the question as the most advantageous
to the interests of all parties. The same
Journal, in another article, denies that the Aus-
trian cabinet ever intend to re-establith the old Diet,
and expresses its entire oencurrecos with the general
not* of the princes belonging to the union. This
I sadden change in the spirit of the ministerial journal
is of some importance, and tends to confirm the ru-
mour mentioned in the beginning.
KINGDOM OF WURTEMBERO.

The Wurtetaberg papers, of the 3rd inst., state that
the Diet of that kingdom bas been peremptorily pro-

motion, which M. Mohl proposed to make respecting
the German question, is quoted as the principal
reason for this measure.

MUSIC.

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.
The joint appearance of an English prima donna
and an English prime tenors on our Italian stage is
without a parallel, we believe, except in the single in-
stance of Billington and Braham some half a
century ago. Last night " Lucia di Lammermnor"
was produced, with ?dies Catherine Hayes in the cha-
racter of Lurk and Mr. Sins Reeves in that of Ed.
garde ; and both performers achieved a triumph of
the most brilliant description. Both of them
had previously performed those characters se-
parately, but never before with such strik-
ing effect ; and, in regard to Miss Hayes,
we can now understand how it was that her Lucia
excited such enthusiasm at the Scala and others of
the principal theatres in Italy. She is certainly the
sweetest, the most graceful, arid the most interesting
represontative of th' character we bare seen. In the
most impassioned scenes she did not reach the tragic
power of Jenny Lind, particularly in the scene of,
Loris madness and death, which that great actress
rendered terrible as well as pathetic.
Mr. Reeves's performance of Edyardo could not I
have been surpassed by any tenor on the stage. We
never heard him in fuller possession of his magnificent
voice, which seemed equally capable of expressing
every variety of passion, from inching tenderness to
the extremity of fury. In the scene of the medic-
lion its sounds were as terrific as they were sweet
and mournful in his deeply affecting death-song.
Both the principal characters of this opera have
rarely (if ever) been so effectively performed as on
this occasion ; and the crowded audience exprtseed
their admiration by enthusiastic applause, and re-
peated calls for the performers during the opera as
well as at its conclusion.

SPAIN.

Hopes are entertained at Madrid that the mediation
of the King of the Belgians will this time be effectual, 1
and Isturite is getting himself ready to return to
England as Minister Plenipotentiary.
With respect to the settlement of the differences
between Spain and England, my letters add that the
ultimatum of England is daily expected. Spain is
prepared to accept this ultimatum, and thus diplo-
matic relfitions will be reestablished. It is said that
i tile official text of the nOl3 2f the :Wu elbinets is
already agreed on. This document is expected to
appear in the Gaulle.
Turin is to be fortified.

GERMANY.
PRUSSIA.
Oar correspondent writes as follows :
ERFURT, lfsacit 30.
The alarm and uneasiness excited by the condition
which the Verwaltunge-Rath have appended to the
en bloc adoption of the constitution seem to be gra-
dually subsiding. The committees of both houses are
proceeding rapidly with the revision, animated by
the conviction that no measures will be takes
which can in any way impede the progress of the
great work of which the Erfurt yarliament is to be
the instrument. The prt senoe of Herr von Radowits in
Berlin, where it is known that the final course of the
Prussian government will be decided on, is regarded
as most favourable to the desired result, his recent
speech having fully restored him to the confidence of
the friends of the more intimate confederation.

Both committees met this morning, and are to meet
again to-night. In the Btaateehaus committee, the
sub-committee, consisting of Campbaunen (the brother
of the ex-minister), Von Patow. and Von Sybel, made
their report, which recommended the adoption of the
constitution en bloc as the only advisable mums under
the altered political relations to the other states
(Hanover and Saxony), but stated, on the other hand,
it would be quite impossible to conclude the work of
the constitution without subsequently making se-
veral important alterations, particularly with re-
gard to the fundamental rights. The report farther
recommended that the committee should express a
favourable opisien on the subject of the alterations
proposed by the Verwaltung.- Bath, and stated that
the sub-committee felt bound to refrain from making
j any further proposal on the subject of the adop-
I lion, en bloc, in connection with the revision, in

RAILWAY MEETINGS.

GLASGOW, KILMARNOCK, & ARDROSSAN.
The ordinary half-yearly meeting of the company
was to have taken plea, ow Saturday afternoon, within the
compant 's office la Glasgow, but the shartholdrre present
not being of the requisite number to constitute a meeting, it
was, alter waiting fully an hour, adjourned by the deputy_
chairmen, Mr. Graham of Feminize, sine die. In the in-
terval, however, Mr. Wilkie insisted that, though no busi-
ness maid be proceeded with, the report of the two gentle-
men appointed to investigate the affairs of the company
should be read to the meeting. Mr. Gratuum at first dec.inedl
to allow anything to be done till the meeting was constituted,
but ultimately the usual half-yearly report by the directors
was road. It stated that since last meeting the requisite
parliamentary notices had been given, and the necessary
steps taken for the promotion of a bill for the abandonment
of the more costly part of their undertaking,—namely, that
poetise of the line running into Kilmarnock, and for the re.
ductioa of the liabilities of the company front 251. to IV. 109.
per share. As the measure propored would have done no
possible injury to any party, and would have tendod greatly
to benefit the shareholders by relieving thew of a large
amount of their liabilities, and thereby render tho purchase
of the Ardrossan harbar a more profitable in.( ament, the
directors did act anticipa's any oppositioa to the posing of
the bill, whirls was read a second time on 25th February ;
but, as petitions had been preseated against it it was not
their intention to proceed with it this session. The returns
of the Kilwinuing and Ardasran line, for this year, the
report went on to say, showed, as contrasted with previous
year,, an increase of a considerable amount, and the returns
for the harbour showed au equally favourable result. A new
wharf, instead of a wood's one, was the only work in pro-
gram, and would cost about 1,6001. The revenue was stated
to be 10,3081. 99. , there being a pregnant, increase foe
the first five weeks of the lett three years 1848 49.50, from
6061., 7151., to 8121. The revenue of the harbour was said to
be 2,6321. 6s. 110. A message was then sent for Messrs.
Borthwick and M'Ewan, the committee of investigation, who
having appeared with their report, Mr. Graham declared the
meeting, fur want of a quorum, 'loomed sine die, end left
the room. The shareholders present, however, who might
be fourteen or fifteen in number. incluiing Mr. Gourley, Mr.
Peter White, Mr. Gray, Mr. Wilkie, Mr. Wiltoo, &c. TO-
; and, at their suggestion, Mr. M'Ewan read the
report of the committee.

The Everhart's Journal publishes the following re-
lative to the Dublin Stock Exchange :
Notwithstanding the announcement wtich app 'tired to the
effect that en amicable feeling then existed between the
S•ckk Exchange and the Bold Exchange Share Brokers'
Assoeiati,n, and that some of the principal members of the
latter society had resigned, in order to become members of
the former, we regret to hear that such a happy termination
Las not al'ogether been arrived at thus:null as we hare
been informed that the president of the Stock Exchange has
thought proper to decline signing the certificates, in accords
sten with the report reeensly teemed, to authorise the Lord
Lieutenant to grant licenses to fils :ars. Du Bidet and Mr.
Smith, to enable them to act as brokers in the government
funds. We are, however, happy to learn that the certificates
of those gentlemen have been signed ty the most respset-
able, and by the required numbs, of referees appointed
under the report, and are at previa beore his Excellency,
who can have no hesitation in grsntiog his license to such
respectable individuals.

THE HUNGARIAN REFUGEES.

My dear Count Teleki,—l have received with feel-
ings of gratification and of pride the letter which
you have done me the honour to address to me, and
which, together with your signature, bears those of
General Klapka and Mr. Pulszky.
The warm mariner in which you are pleased to
acknowledge such poor services as I have been able
to render to yoar countrymen proves to me that you
thoroughly appreciate the deep interest I take in the
cause of your country. It is true that the instance of
Hungary is not the first in which I have endeavoured,
however ineffectually, to defend the cause of liberty
against oppression. Poland, the earliest victim of the
spirit of aggression, and contempt for inter-
national law, evinced by the great despotic
powers of the continent Poland, so cruelly
tortured, so shamefully abandoned, first excited, and
will never cease to engage my ardent sympathy : but
wherever I see men struggling for freedom, and
bravely defending right against might, those men
will over have in me, if not a powerful, at least an
earnest and a cordial friend.

Would to God that my power to aid the canoe of
your country, than which there never was one more
just and more righteous, were in proportion to my
good will. Then would no Hungarian languish in
exile, either in Europe, is America, or in Asia; then
would the iLustrious Kossuth, released from cap-
tivity by those who now unwillingly detain him,
constrained by the alms encroaching and arbitrary
power which has already put down the reign uf
liberty and order in Poland and in Hungary ; then
would Kossuth once more rally all I fungarians under'
the standard of rational liberty; of the ancient Hun-
garian constitution, rooted in the usages of centu-
ries, but reformed according to the requirements
of the present age, and extending to every class, and
every creed, the benefits of civil, religious, and com-
mercial freedom. Then would Hungary be glorious
and happy herself; surrounding nations would learn
the principles of liberty and justice by her example;
and the blessings enjoyed by her would tend to pro-
mote the prosperity of every nation in the world.
Pray accept, and present to your oolleasuese my
beat thanks for your kind letter ; and believe me to
be, my dear Count Teleki, with true regard,Agur's
sincerely, DUDLEY COUTTS BTU T.

with much ceremony cn the morning of the 23rd, a
numerous crowd of spectators preserving the most
profound silence. The absence of the French military
authorities was remarked, and became the subject of
general comment. A report prevailed that the Pope,
Instead of returning to Rome, meditated secret flight
to Leghorn, where he would pot himself wholly in
