LONDON, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1853.

Anything more disgraceful can scarcely be ima-
gined than the system of petty prevarication in-
dulged in of late by some of not the least import-
ant Members of her Britanic MAJESTY'S Govern-
ment. Yesterday evening, in the House of Com-
mons, afforded a new and very melancholy illus- •
tration of this, during the course of the very
garrulous and vapid debate which followed the
inquiries addressed to the present Ministry in
ieference to our relations with France, by the
Right Hon. Gentleman the Leader of the Oppo-
sition. Than those inquiries, nothing, we take
it could, by possibility, have bean more rational
under existing circumstances. :For, let us ask
one simple question—have we not witnessed
recently the extraordinary spectacle of Cabinet
Ministers pandering to the prejudices of the
mob by scurrilities directed against the Im-
perial Chieftain of 35,000,000 of Frenchmen,
at the very time when the naval and
mili-
tary armaments of the country were being
largely augmented under the guidance of the
Administration ? Aware of this, it was only
reasonable that Mr. DISRAELI should wish, before
the House was called upon to vote the supplies
for our maritime service, to elicit from the occu-
pants of the Treasury benches some clear and
distinct explanation of the views really entertained
by them in regard to the most powerful of our
Continental neighbours. Among the estimates to
be submitted to the Commons, on the House going
into a Committee of Supply, there were items show-
ing an increase over the expenditure of the previous
year of 399,0001. in the Naval department. It was
only right, therefore, the Mini sterial advisers of
the SOVEREIGN should be requirei, before bringing
those items under the consi aeration of the
Popular representatives, to announce boldly and
explicitly what are their actlial sentiments

AUSTRIA.
A letter from Vienna, of the 15th, states that
the Austrian Government has addressed a very
energetic note to the Swiss Government, on the
subject of the late insurrectionary movement at
Milan. It complains that the canton of Tessin in-
directly favoured the movement. The Austrian
Government demands satisfaction, and reserves to
itself the intention of enforcing it if necessary.
The blockade of the frontier is strictly main-

tained. Not a single traveller is allowed to cross.
The same letter states that the Austrian Govern-
ment has addressed au energetic note to the Eng-
lish Government, complaining that Mazzini and
Kossuth are allowed to get up conspiracies in
London, and publish proclainations in the English
journals of a nature to provoke insurrections.
A telegraphic dispatch from Vienna, dated the
17th, says :
"Notwithstanding the resumption of hostilities be-
tween the Montenegrins and the Turks, the Stock Ex-
change to-day has been very firm. It is positiv&y
affirmed that Austria will endeavour to obtain the adhe-
sion of the other German States to the Austro-Prussian
commercial treaty."
Another telegraphic dispatch received from Ger-
many announced the important fact, that a very
extensive and well-organised conspiracy, for the
overthrow of the Austrian rule, has just been dia. -
covered in Hungary.

A report has gone the round of the journals, of
the French and British Governments
having ad-
dressed an " identic note " to Austria relative to
her concentration of troops on the eastern frontier.
There exist grounds for asserting that this report
is unfounded.
London, England, 1853-02-19

TO THE HUNGARIAN SOLDIERS QUARTERED IN ITALY.

Gallant Countrymen,—lt is with indignation I learn
that on the occasion of the troubles of Feb. 6, at Milan,
an appeal has been circulated there in my name, calling
on you to join in that abortive movement.

Soldiers ! that document was not genuine. I have
not approved of an insurrection in Italy for the present
moment. I issued no appeal calling on you to take a
part in it.

Once the time will come (and come it shall). Un-
doubtedly will I, in the name of our country, desire you,
wheresoever you may then be, to side with the people
round the banner of liberty. That is a sacred duty.
Our enemy is the. same everywhere, and the people's
cause is one and the same, alike as there is but one God !
one honour and one liberty I;
But this I only shall do at the right time. The pre-
sent time was not the right one.
Of one thing you may rest assured, and that is, that I
never shall play with your blood a wanton play.
Whensoever I shall say to you, "Ye braves I the time
is at hand ! " I will tell you this neither from London,
nor from any distant safe-place, but from head-quarters.
In person will I lead you on, and claim the first share in
your glorious dangers.
Never shall I invite you to risk any danger, in which
I myself did not share.

And as no one can be present in two places at once,
should I for that reason not place myself at the head ofyour
heroic ranks, because duty will call on me to do that
in our own dear country, where I shall have to fight for
freedom and right in Hungary, while you will be fight-
ing for it in Italy ; my appeal will reach you by the
hand of a gallant Hungarian commander, whom I will
charge to lead you on to the field of glory, fighting for-
ward home, to join the banner which I shall hold
there.

Of this you may rest assured. Until then be pre-
pared, but wait. Don't play your blood wantonly.
The fatherland, the world is needing it. For freedom
and fatherland. L. KOSSUTH.

DUBLIN CARRIAGES BILL.

Upon the reading of the Lords' amendments to this bill,
Mr. VANCE remonstrated strongly against the amend-
ment made by the upper house, by which ten instead of
seven statute miles from the General Post-office were fixed
upon as the limit to which drivers were bound to ply.
There was another amendment to which a strong objection
would be entertained—with regard to the disposal of the
penalties. The corporation of Dublin would have petitioned
against this bill altogether if it had been understood from
the first that the penalties were to be monopolised by the
metropolitan police force, instead of going in part to the
guardians o f the poor.

Sir J. YOUNG did not see that much disadvantage
cauld result to the ratepayers of Dublin, in whichever of
the two ways the penalties were employed. It was only
like putting the money out of one pocket into the other.
The Lords' amendments were then agreed to.
The house adjourned at half-past seven o'clock until
three o'clock on Friday, when the sitting will be a con-
tinuous one.

SPORTING NOTES.

FRIDAY'S RACES AT YORK.

The events to be decided on Friday'now alone remain
for discussion, and I shall dismiss them with brief ob-
servations. The most important item in the list is the
Great Yorkshire Stakes, for which there are 133 nomi-
nations. West Australian is not likely to figure among
the competitors ; should the field, therefore, be numeri-
cally strong, a good betting race, and an interesting en-
counter may be anticipated. The animals whose chances
appear formidable on paper are the Queen, Mayfair,
Umbriel, Vindex, Honeywood, and Lord Fauconberg.
The starting of the Queen will entirely depend upon her
nominator ; but should she go to the post, I shall ex-
pect to see her obtain a forward position in the race.
In her default, I shall expect either Honeywood or Vin-
dex to achieve success.

Boiardo and Cyrus are my selections for the Gimcrack
Stakes. Torment will probably carry off the York Cup.
My opinion as to the probable result of the Ebor
Handicap has undergone no change. lam still firm in
my allegiance to PANTOMIME and ADINE. The best of
Dawson's lot will be a formidable opponent, but I am
not prepared to say which of his horses will be intended,
I have received a mysterious hint about Dick Turpin
whose day, it is said, has come.

PORTSMOUTH, AUG. 16.
—A division of the Spithhead fleet will put to sea, under
Rear-Admiral Corry, on Thursday, as at present or-
dered. They will cruise off Lisbon. The ships of the
fleet shifted berth yesterday, and now form three lines
instead of two.

- The Conflict, 8, screw corvette, was taken out of har-
bour this morning, on another trial of the Bomerang
propeller. After she had made one run along the mea-
sured mile at Stokes-bay she got ashore at the western
end of the trial-ground, where we believe she still re-
mains, but the weather is so thick she cannot be made
out from the shore..,
The Amphion, 34, screw frigate, Acting-Captain Key,
weighed from Spithead this afternoon and proceeded
to the westward, apparently to render assistance to the
Conflict.

The Ajax, 53, screw line•of-battleship, Captain Quin,
was paid wages yesterday, and is under orders for
Plymouth.

The Terrible, 21, paddle frigate, Captain 111‘Cleverty,
left Spithead this afternoon for the westward.
