CONVICTIONS FOR TRUCK.—Some heavy convictions
took place before the Bilston magistrates on Wednesday,
against parties who had been systematically carrying on
the truck system. The parties convicted were Messrs.
Rollason and Son, iron wire manufacturers, and Job
Smaliman, a manager in the establishment of Mr. White-
house of Prior Field Colliery. The former were con-
victed upon three informations, and fined 341. lls. 6d.,
which sum was paid. The latter was convicted on two
informations, and paid a guinea each to the informer on
eight others. All the fines were paid.
CRIMINAL OFFENDERS.—On Saturday, a Parliamen-
tary document was printed, by which it is shown that in
last year 318,778 x. 2s.ld. was voted by Parliament in aid of
the county rates on criminal offenders. Of that sum
244,271 i. 12s. went is the prosecution of prisoners,
5 JO. Is. 7d. in the conveyance of prisoners, and
69,62 a. Bs. in the male/el:lame of prisoners.

GERMANY.

The Cologne Gazette, under date of Frankfort
17th, says :—" The ordinary sitting of the Diet did
not take place yesterday, and it is not expected
that there will be one before the new year. It is
wished to wait until the two Cabinets of Vienna
and Berlin shall have come to a perfect understand-

ing."
A letter from Coblentz, 17th, says that the
Prince of Prussia, who was in that city, has received
an order from the King to proceed immediately to
Berlin.
A letter from Berlin of the 16th states that the
treaty for the extradition of criminals concluded
between France and Hesse Cassel is about to be
extended to other Governments of Germany. The
The same letter states that the Prussian Govern-
ment has nominated commissioners to treat with
Baron de Bruck, Austrian plenipotentiary on the
Zollverein question, and every thing indicates that
it will soon be brought to a satisfactory conclusion.
A telegraphic dispatch, dated Berlin 19th, says :
—" The King of Hanover and the Duke of Bruns-
wick arrived here yes:serday. The Emperor of
Austria will leave on Tuesday."
The Deutsche Yolks Halle of the 17th says :
"A petition has been addressed to the Second Chain=,
ber, praying it to vote an address to his Majesty, beg-
ging that the decrees of the Ministers of Public Instruc-
tion and the Interior of the 22d May and 16th July last,
concerning the restriction of the Catholic mission, as
well as the education and establishment of Catholic
ecclesiastics, may be repealed. The conclusions of the
petition are—' It is inadmissible, illegal, and unconsti-
tutional-Ist. That the Catholics of Prussia cannot,
without a special authorisation from the Government,
visit the Germanic College at Rome, placed under the
surveillance of the Pope, as well as the establishments
directed by the Jesuits, while subjects belonging to
other Christian creeds may visit any schools they please
both at home and abroad. 2. To menace the Catholics,
in case of contravention, with the loss of their political
rights, while all the other subjects of his Majesty enjoy
absolute liberty. 3. To refuse to entire classes of Ca-
tholics the power of establishing themselves in Prussia,
so that in spite of the treaty of peace of Westphalia, the
federal compact, and the Prussian constitution, they have
less rights than the non-Catholics, or even neo-Catholics.' "
The Journal des Debats says :—" The Prince
Frederick Augustus Albert of Saxony, who is to
marry the Princess Carola Wasa, is not, as we
erroneously stated, the brother of the King of
Saxony, but the eldest son of Prince John, the
King's brother, and presumptive heir to the throne.
Prince Albert is consequently nephew of the King
of Saxony, and destined to reign in turn. The
young Prince's mother is the Princess Amelia of
Bavaria, sister of the Arch-duchess Sophia, mother
of the present Emperor of Austria."
The Constitutionnel says, that a letter from
Vienna positively denies the assertion of some of
the German journals, that the Austrian. Govern-
ment intends to raise a new loan abroad.

LONDON., TUESDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1852.

Yesteraa a variety of graceful and deserved
tributes w ere offered by the leading members of
the Opposition, to the abilities diiplayed by the
ters during their tenure of office under
very dii %cult and discouraging. circumstances.
These et )mplimentary remarks were, of course,
apropos . of the ann unced resignation of the Earl
Of DzatA\ ana agues in, the late GOireal-
London, England, 1852-12-21

a conviction in KIRWAN'S case. We apprehend,
however, that these very persons would have not
been unwilling to convict if they had been certain
of not committing an irretrievable mistake.

A small pamphlet of 24 pages, entitled " A
Synthetical View of the Results of recent Com-
mercial and Financial Legislation." has just been
published by RIDGWAY, from the very able statis-
tical pen of JOHN MACGREGOR, M.P. for Glasgow,
which will be at once appreciated by the public,
not more for its timely production, -than for its
clear, succinct, and admirable elucidation of our
present financial position with regard to taxation
in general and our commercial interests in pat
cular. We may enlarge more to-morrow, but in
the meantime we cannot refrain from giving Mr.
MACGREGOR'S graphic picture of what would be the
consequences of a national stoppage of credit
The revenue for 1852 will probably exceed that .of
1851 ; and if the income tax be continued, either in Its
present or in a modified form, the duty on hops may,
perhaps, be abolished, and the tea and wine duties be
also reduced.
But the public credit of the nation must be secured
before any tax can be repealed or reduced. By farther,
economy, and looking forward to the termination of
annuities in 1856 and 1860, we may get xid of mall
obnoxious taxes.

In the meantime, it requires but little inquiry to be
convinced that the calamity of a stoppage of the paY:
ment of the dividends, or interest of the National Deb'''
would break up every monetary and commercial engage.
ment in the United Kingdom. The rights of propertYd'
whether in lands or moveables, would no longerbe sacre •
Bank Stock, India Stock, and all other stock, together
with private banks and private credit; would all be
involved in the general calamity of a national failure.
" In the City of London, and other large towns, few
families keep more ready money in their houses than
may be sufficient for the week's expense ; few have more
e
than the day's provision in their larders. As pry° d
credit would fall with public credit, the grazier will
not trust the butcher, nor the latter the families he stir
plied. The farmer would not trust the corn dealer, Or
the latter the miller, nor the miller the baker ; conned
quently the latter must cease to supply his usual
tomers. So on with all other trades and credits.
Therefore, at whatever amount of taxation, the eager
credit of the British Empire must and will be 10111.
tained."
London, England, 1852-12-21

ITALY.

The Pialmontese Senate continued, in its sitting
of the 16th, the discussion on the Civil Marriage
Bill. Chev. Boncompagni, Minister of Justice,
supported the bill, declaring that he was a friend
of liberty of conscience, that the spiritual Church
could not exert its salutaryi influence, so long as it
made common cause with the temporal privileges
of the clergy, because in that case the public would
think it hostile to liberty. It was certainly to be
desired, he said, that the misunderstanding with
Rome should cease, but only on condition of mu-
tual independence.—The Archbishop of Angennes
attacked the bill in a speech from which it would
appear that the orator did not consider mar-
riage in the light of a contract at all, not even
when blessed by the Churci.—M. Della Mar-
mora thought the law inexpedient at the present
moment.—M. de Cavour, in support of the bill,
contended that an institution which was not con-
dended by the Church either in France, or Belgium,
or any other Catholic country, could not be looked
upon as hostile to the Church. Civil marriage had
not rendered the present generation of France more
immoral. Either the bill must be supported, or the
supremacy of the Church admitted, in which case
all reform would •be impossible.—M. Siccardi fol-
lowed on the same side, and expressed his surprise
that laws of such deep interest to families as well as
to the civil state, should meet in Italy with an op-
position they had not encountered elsewhere. A
good law on such matters could only be founded on
the distinct separation of the civil and ecclesiastical
powers ; else one element would always have the
upper hand over the other. The discussion was
adjourned to the following day.
The Corriere Mercantile states, from Florence,
13th inst., that Madame Madiai has been ill for
some days past, and that the Grand Duchesses,
moved by her miserable state, have exercised their
influence to exhort her to return to the Catholic
religion, hoping thus to obtain her liberation from
the Grand Duke. It is added that hitherto they
have been unsuccessful.
Letters from Florence, in the Augslntrg Gazette,
state that a person named Guarducci has been
arrested at Florence for having been found in pos-
session of an Italian Bible, and that a search was
made on the 11th by the police in the apartments
of the chief editor of the Speranza, but without
effect.

The Marquis E. D'AaEGaio, Piedmontese Envoy
Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the
Court of St. James's, left Turin ou the 7th for his
destination.
A letter from Florence of the sth, in the Risorgi-
mento of Turin, states that some surprise has been
created in diplomatic circles by the circumstance
that Count NESSELRODE did not wait upon the GRAND
DUKE when he passed through Florence some
days ago.
In its sitting of the 6th of the Royal Court of Flo-
rence, the examination of GuEunazzr was concluded.
It chiefly related to the events of the 11th and 12th of
April, 1849, when the counter-revolution broke out,
and the administration of affairs passed into the hands
of a Committee of Government. GUERRAZZI gave an
account of the bloody collision which broke out at
Florence on the llth between the Livornese Volun-
teers and the people. lle ehosved that the affray did
not originate in any political feeling on either side ;
that he exposed himself unarmed to the fury of both
parties, in order to put a stop to the effusion of blood,
and that he succeeded in removing the Volunteers
from Florence. On the following day he was taken
to the fort of Belvedere under pretence of saving him
from the fury of the populace, who were crying
" Death to Guerrazzi!" and the Government kept
him there until the 24th of May, when he was placed
at the disposal of the public prosecutor. He con-
cluded with accusing the Committee of Government
of double-dealing towards him. The reading of the
documents for the defence then commenced, and was
to be continued in the following sitting.
The Grand Duke of TUSCANY visited Leghorn on
the 2d, to inspect the works commenced there for

The Corriere Mercantile of the 9th states from
Faenzs (Roman States) that there has been a col-
lision there between the citizens and the police, who
had to call the Austrians to their assistance. It is
added that several persons were killed and wounded
in the fray.
An official article in the Giornale di Roma of the
sth, states that all negotiations with railway com-
panies respecting the construction of the Rome, An-

has directed that the whole line be surveyed at the
expense of the Government, in order to ascertain the
real cost as precisely as possible.

THE CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE THAMES.
Thomas Coles is again the winner of the Belt—
having this afternoon at about twenty minutes after two
o'clock r.Y• (ibr the second time within a few months)
defeated th• long-victorious Robert Coombes. Upon the
I ast occasion the race between the same eminent athletes
was won by a comparatively short distance. To-day
the triumph of Coles was wonderfully more decisive—
the new champion of the Thames having reached the
winning-post when at the astonishing interval of eight
or ten lengths ahead of his competitor. The conqueror's
style of rowirg throughout was eminently cool and

GERMAN Y.

"In 1850," says the Cologne Gazette, " the ex-
ports of the Zollverein amounted to 82,772,000
thalers in manufactured goods, and 69,845,691
thalers in raw material. The imports of manufac-
tured goods amounted to 41,357,314 thalers, and those
of raw material to 107,277,753 thalers.
The Journal de Frankfort of the 12th says—" A
Vienna
ments h
letter informs us that the German govern-
-are received an invitation from the Austrian
Cabinet to send plenipotentiaries immediat9ly to
Vienna, to
open a congress for a customs union be-
tween Austria and the different States of the Ger-
manic Confederation."
A letter from Munich, in the German Journal of
Frankfort of
the 11th says—" A great many conjec-
tures have appeared in the journals respecting the
motive of the visit of the Elector of HEssE to our
Court. The truth is, that the ELECTOR came only
for the purpose of expressing in person his thanks for
the assistance given him two years ago by the King
of BAVARIA. ills recent visit to Vienna had a simi-
lar motive."

Some cases of cholera occurred at Stettin several
days back, and fears were entertained that the ter•
rible malady would commit great ravages. But
fortunately a violent storm came on, and such a
quantity of electricity was
discharged, that the air
seemed to become purified, and no new case has since
occurred.

HOP INTELLIGENCE:

CANTERBURY.—The late frequent showers have re-
tarded picking, and somewhat damaged the hops still
on the poles, so far as colour is concerned, but we are
glad to find that the weight is preserved. As picking
has progressed, the crops realized bave been found to
exceed anticipations ; and good prices generally hav-
ing been obtained, the growers have reason for great
thankfulness this season. They have been enabled, too,
to pay the pickers better than was at first promised,
which has imparted much satisfaction and happiness
among the poor folks. The duty is still fixed at
250,0001. and upwards. Some planters will scarcely
have finished picking by the end of this week.
MAIDSTONE.—The picking, one of the longest en
record, is now nearly over. It has been much
hindered b y the rains and floods. Some hops have
been lost in consequence, as in wet weather there is
ever a great waste. Many of the latter hops are in-
ferior. The colegates have, as usual, held their
colour and their smell. Some of the grape hops have
also but, generally, the late hops are black
at stt andelriwg,l; of bad quality. The duty is still
thke kept
called 260,0001.
MARDEN.—We have received considerable injury
from the floods and the winds, but we shall still grow
au average of 12 cwt. an acre.
London, England, 1852-10-14

Fite, CE.

The speech of the President at the Bordeaux ban-
quet has produced an excellent effect in Paris, and has
given much satisfaction, particularly amongst the
commercial classes ; and even amongst the members
of the Diplomatic Corps, who generally express their
opinions with reserve, a feeling of the same kind is
observable. This approbation of the sentiments ex-
pressed by Louis Napoleon is not confined to his
personal friends or political partisans ; it extends to
many who have been decidedly hostile to him, and
the only comment made is the expression of a hope
that those sentiments are sincere.
The preparations for the reception of the Prince
President on Saturday hes;Te been commenced on
several points of the line which be is to follow. Be-
tween the Pont d'Austerlitz and thegate of the Jardin
des Plantes, several of the young trees on the Boule-
vards have been cut down, and the woodwork for the
triumphal arch has been commenced. It will be nearly
of the size of the Porte St. Denis, and will have a
principal arcade and two small ones, like that building.
The outer wcrke of the arch on the Place de le Bas-
tille have not yet mode much progress ; but the works
for that near the Rile de Menilmontant are more ad-
A fourth is to be erected at the Boulevard
du Temple, near the Jardin Ture. There a ill be
others between that point and the Madeleine—one, it
is said, will be placed opposite that which will be at
the entrance of the Pont de la Concorde. The great
rnej zity of the houses by which the cortege will pass
will be ornamented with flags, &c. The workmen of
the Oth and 6:h erroadissements have received per-
mission to erect a triumphal arch on the Boulevard
St. Denis, and to station themselves there with ban-
ners. The mayors and deputy mayors of the corn-
muses cf the department of the Seine will assemble
on the Place de la Bsstille.

Various rumours are afloat with respect to the
honours and dignlties that are to be conferred soon
after the establishment of the Empire. Several
names are mentioned of persons who have rendered
signal services to the President; amongst others
those of M. Fould, M. Baroche, M. de Morny, M.
de Persigoy, &c., and on whom the new Emperor
will confer titles of nobility. A measure of general
amnesty will, it is believed, be one of the first acts
of the new reign.
London, England, 1852-10-14

BELGIUM.

A funeral service was performed on Tuesday in the
church of Lacken in honour of the memory of the
late Queen of the BELGIANS. All the Royal family
and the most distinguished persons of Brussels were
present.
The Emancipation of Brussels of Tuesday says—
" Rumours were current yesterday respecting ob-
stacles and delays in the constitution of the Cabinet.
Some preons went so far as to speak of hesitation on
the part of M. PIERCOT, which might lead to his re-
fusal to accept office."
London, England, 1852-10-14

THE CHANCELLOR OF OXFORD
UNIVERSITY.

As we announced yesterday in a convocation
holden at Oxford, on Tuesday, at twelve o'clock, the
Right Hon. thelEarl of Derby
was unanimously elected
Chancellor of the University, in the place of his
Grace the late Duke of Wellington. It was feared
up to the last moment that some of those restless
spirits who think everybody and everything in the
world to be wrong except themselves and their own
opinions, would have disturbed the unanimity which
so happily prevailed ; _ but the scene probably that
presented itself—namely, a Convocation House al-
most entirely filled with Lord Derby's supporters,
prevented the outbreak and consequent disgrace which
the whole University must have shared, had the few
malcontents brougbt forward another candidate at the
eleventh hour. As it was, the only demonstration
made was a speech of some length by the senior
proctor, who blamed the authorities for fixing so early
a day for the election, and condemned the breathless
haste with which those who happened to be in the
University at the time of the Duke of Wellington's
death had selected a candidate and commenced a
canvass. In short, the recent article in the
Times gave no bad idea of Mr. Lake's ar-
gument aad the cause of his displeasure.
There is a marvellous coincidence in the
proctor and the correspondent of that consistent
journal. The Vice Chancellor deemed it his duty to
say, in a very few words, that so far as the authori-
ties were concerned, they had only obeyed the statutes,
which positively direct a new Chancellor to be chosen
at as early a period as convenient, and followed for-
mer precedents, the dates of which proved that no
undue haste had been shown in fixing the day of
election on this occasion, but rather the contrary.
We may add, that so far as Lord Derby's friends are
implicated in the charge of precipitancy, it will be an
easy task to prove that Mr. Lake's own pasty, the
supporters of Mr. Gladstone, and the followers—but
no, we will not call names—suffice it to say, that the
opponents of Lord Derby forced his lordship's friends
into the field. The following we believe to be the
truth :—The Duke of Wellington died on the 14th,
the news reached Oxford on the following day, the
15th. On that very day a meeting took place of
the party at Mr. Marriott's rooms in Oriel College
—there were some 23 present. After a little dis-
cussion as to a proper candidate, and after more than
one had been named, the party present divided, the
majority. .being for the Duke of Newcastle, Mr. Glad-
stoee s friend,
and, as it said, political and theological
pupil. They separated, to meet the next morning,
having agreed in the meanwhile to feel the pulse of
the resident members; and they met a second time
accordingly. The Duke of Newcastle was still the
favourite ; and the game seemed tolerably certain,
nay, we believe a gentleman actually offered to go,
and did g.), to the Duke, to obtain his Grace's con-
sent to be proposed as a candidate. This, our readers
will mark, brings us to the afternoon of the second
