LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 7, 1849.

British North America, " including facility, rapidity,
and security, is, indeed, the true secret of the develop-
ment of a country."—(P. 8.) Lieut. SYNGE is tho-
roughly acquainted with the geographical and geologi-
cal peculiarities of the colony, he has studied the
country with the scrutinizing and appreciative eye of
an officer in the Royal Engineers—and he pronounces
himself decidedly in favour of the feasibility of
opening such lines of traffic as shall render the com-
munication throughout those dominions complete.
The advance," he says, " may be made by canal, by
railroad, or by a mixed route."—(P. 14.) If so—
then assuredly the railroad would be preferable, as
coming within his former requirements of rapidity,
and security, and facility, much better than the canal,
or the mixed route. Canal-barges would hardly keep
pace with steam-engines; and railroads are not gene-
rally liable to be frozen. Every one of the argu-
ments employed by Lieutenant MILLINGTON SYNGE
go far to enforce the scheme to which we have already
more than once referred, as having been propounded
by Major CARMICHAEL SMYTH—the scheme of
constructing a gigantic arterial railway run-
ing across North America from Frazer's
River to Halifax, and thereby connecting together
the Pacific and the Atlantic. No doubt the project
is bold—so bold as at first sight to appear almost
extravagant. But bolder things have been done
under more discouraging circumstances, and without
a fraction of the recompense in comparison. Many
shrug their shoulders, very likely, at the suggestion,
and feel disposed to cry out with AUSTIN CAXTON,
" Pshaw !" and " Paine !" But the Spanish children
pointed after COLUMBUS in the streets of Madrid,
calling him the " mad Italian," because he dreamed of
discovering land further west than the Canaries !
Major CARMICHAEL SMYTH can afford to exult in the
privilege of bearing a kindred derision to that lavished
by the Castilians upon the glorious CHRISTOPHER.
Yet the daydream of a trunk railway between the
Pacific and the Atlantic would seem to have awakened
the attention of people as little gifted with imagina-
tion as fur-traders. From the communications pub-
lished by ourselves in another column, it would appear
that the Hudson's Bay Company are disposed
to afford the scheme their countenance. That
fact, we doubt not, will go a great way
towards its advancement, if it do not actually
bring about its realisation. It will show that the
motion can influence more than intellectual specula.
tors—that it has the attraction of £ s. d. as well as
the fascination of a poetical vision. The subject, in
fact, is one so peculiarly calculated to arrest the at-
tention of every one interested in the prosperity of
our North American possessions as to force itself
upon public consideration. And appearing precisely
at this moment, it holds out a means for the tran-
quillization of the turmoil already beginning to re-
vive in the Canadas. It proffers the very boon for
which the mother country bas been so long aspiring.
It reveals the chain that may bind our dependencies
in North America to Great Britain for ever, and with
those dependencies all the rest of the colonies hanging
on to the gorgeous skirts of the empire. Once
carried out, the stupendous possessions of England
though distributed over both hemispheres, would
be permanently compacted together—our fleets
would more than ever hold dominion
over the seas commanding both hemispheres
—the hidden resources of the northern continent of
America, of New Zealand, and of Australia, would be
suddenly called to light—the necessity of an overland
route across Europe (liable at any moment tc inter-
ruption) would be removed, the route across the new
world being more direct and rapid—indolent crime
would be compelled to toil, in the persons of the con-
vict labourers, for the nourishment and emolument of
industrious virtue—the east and the west, barbarism
and civilization, the fruitful regions of spice and vege-
tation, and the cities of workshops and factories would
be confronted, face to face, through the intervention
of steam power—Canada would be pacified, England
would be enriched, and the British empire con-
solidated.

Will this prove a gorgeous daydream or a magnifi-
cent reality ? We leave Time to decide.

We have latterly been favoured with opinions by
Members of that louse which is usually least prone to
express strong views on litigated points that do not
strictly come under their legislatorial authority.
Harsh condemnation of men struggling under adverse
fortune has not hitherto been a characteristic of the
British House of Peers, and we are glad to see the
protests made by Lords LANSDOWNE, FITZWILLIAM,
and HARROWBY against the precedent. That the al-
lusions to possible causes of suffering amongst the
exiled Poles are founded upon purely imaginary data,
has been proved to the satisraction of the country
which contributes to their relief and to Europe, which
has hitherto admired its generosity. It is not easy to
clear up accusations against the Hungarians who are
engaged in a similar struggle for liberty to that of
the Poles, because no party in this country,
as far as we are aware, has lent them any
aid, or even maintains any correspondence with them.
But as an attempt has been made to prejudice public
opinion by representing the corps in Transylvania
commanded by General BEM as having transgressed
the laws of humanity in their proceedings, it may be
well to call attention to a quotation from the Alge-
meine Zeitung, of the 28th of March. It states—
" The traces of fire, blood, and robbery, which the
Wallachians left at Zslatbna and Enyed, will be more
difficult to efface than those which the Hungarian rebel
army, under 8,,m, left in their march throughout the
whole country."—( Transylvanian Messenger, published
in Garman, at Hermannstadt.)

This testimony, from an unwilling witness (as the
term rebels applied to the Hungarians shows), seems
to make the accusation raised against General BEM
to be as illusory as that prefered by Lord EGLINTON
against his poor countrymen in England.

Nobly has the heroic BEM earned the glorious
decoration of the cross of Louis KOSSUTH ! His
sword is cutting to pieces the legionaries of the two
the
great despotisms of Austria and Russia—those two
giganticunited empiresfoirce required he

strategy of the Emperor NAPOLEON at
Austerlitz. The bulletins
from the Hungarian
Commander-in-Chief—which ' •
interesting documents
will be found given exclusively by ourselves in
another column—show again for the nine
hun-
dred and ninety-ninth time that the statements
made in the reactionary journals, both • this
country and on the continent, are utterly devoid of
accuracy—that they are, in fact, from beginning to
end misstatements, or, if the phrase must out at last,
lies, and no white lies either, but lies of Cimmerian
blackness.
Instead of BEM having taken Hermanstadt merely
for the sake of abandoning it immediately afterwards
—as has been impudently proclaimed by the Minis-
terial papers of Germany, and as impudently repeated
by the Tory papers of England—it will be seen that
Hermanstadt was captured on the 11th inst., and that
on the 16th, the date of the latest intelligence, it was
still in the possession of the Hungarians. It will be
perceived, moreover, from these memorable bulletins,
that General BENI has proceeded further than could
by any chance have been anticipated—that on the
15th, the anniversary of the great day when Hungary
first awoke from her sleep of dependence, he entirely
routed the Imperial army of his antagonists, driving
the Russian auxiliaries across the frontiers into Wal-
lachia, and compelling the Austrian Generals PUCH.
NER, GNESER, JOVICH, and PFEROMANN to fly before
his victorious soldiers. Now we ask any man not posi•
tively deranged by the animosities of faction, whether
these repeated disproofs of t
ashe
to astsehertions
proceedings made by the
of
reactionary newspapers,
Hungary, do not justify the public in henceforth
discrediting their most solemn asseverations as to
the progress of the arms of Austria ? Let it
be remembered that between the seat of war
and ourselves there intervene the German dominions
of FRANCIS JOSEPH—that all the first news from
Hungary passes through Vienna before it reaches
the western shores of Europe—that the interest of
the assailing powers is to hide its reverses
and to assert its advancement and know-
ing from experience that the Viennese organs
are marvellous adepts at distorting facts into
fables, defeats into victories, and so forth, the public
will, hereafter, we doubt not, give a proportionate
credence to the Germanized, Tory-trumpeted dis-
patches received from the battle-fields of Hungary.
The truth is, as we have stated, that Hermanstadt:
is in the possession of the patriots—that BEJ has,

gained another triumph—that the Russo-Austrian
forces have Leen driven helter-tlielter into Wallachia.

We find the following paragraph in our excellent
contemporary the Cork Examiner, of Wednesday :
" VALENTIA. HARBOUR.—WO are credibly informed
that Captain Wolfe, R.N., late of the surveying vessel
Tartarus, has been ordered to survey Valentia Harbour
and the adjacent coast. If this be with a view of esta-
blishing a Transatlantic packet station in that quarter,
which it looks very like—we are satisfied that it should
be somewhere in Ireland; but we know that the best nau-
tical judges both in America and in this country are
against this locality ; therefore we again call the atten-
tion of our fellow-citizens to this important question."

It may be all very well for the worthy citizens of
Cork to wish for a Transatlantic station to be esta-
blished at their spacious and commodious port; but
the question for the Government is not a local, but a
national one. It was but the other day that even
the modest people of Limerick wanted the doubtful
waters of the Shannon to be honoured with the pa-
tronage of the Government and the prospective com-
mercial monopoly of both sides of the Atlantic!
With such patriots public utility ought to yield to
private interest ; but with the Government we sus-
pect that the public advantage in its widest and most
beneficial range ought to be the leading principle
in coming to a decision on such an important sub-
ject. If Ireland is to be raised from her pre-
sent low condition, it must be done not by patronising
localities which are already independent of Govern-
ment support. Cork and Limerick can stand on
their own good legs, but not so the children of
the barren shores on the far west and south-west
of Ireland—a wilderness teeming with popu-
lation, but destitute of every comfort. Surely
this is the more deplorable when nature holds out
such cheering prospects for improving the condition
of the people by the exercise of energies now wasted
in fruitless condolence or indolent repining.
The support given by Government to the comple-
I tion of railways through Ireland will tend greatly to
ameliorate the condition of that country, by facilitat-
ing a more ready access to the numerous noble bays

RUSH'S TRIAL AND THE ELEC-

TRIO TELEGRAPH.
Our readers are well aware that The Sun made
great exertions to lay before the public a report of the
trial of this remarkable criminal up to half-past six
o'clock each day, which was published in our Seven
o'Clock Edition. By the aid of the Electric Telegraph
our reporter at Norwich was enabled to dispatch his
notes from the Castle at half-past six each day of the
trial, which were just as invariably published in the
late edition of The Sun half an hour after, the
distance from Norwich Castle to the The Sun office
being nearly 130 miles I Such was the facility of
intercourse and the skill of the gentlemen selected by
the Electric Telegraph Company to attend at Norwich
during the trial—Mr. Raymond, the superintendent,
and Mr. Sech, the gentleman at Shoreditch—that our
reports, averaging from thirty to forty lines, were
sent up in from a quarter of an hour to twenty
minutes, or just as fast as our reporter, an extremely
rapid writer, could prepare each slip of his copy. The
verdict was at The Sun office in twenty minutes after
delivered from the mouth of the foreman of the jury,
notwithstanding the difficulty
of getting out of the
court frem the crowd, not only inside but around
its doors, and the difficulty and danger of threading
which was at the time in full swing.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the French papers of yesterday.
M. PROUDHON has escaped from Paris, and is now
in Belgium. The Peuple, however, continues its war
of scandal against the PRESIDENT. That journal on
Wednesday accused the PRESIDENT of having kept
back the telegraphic dispatches announcing the defeat
making
which the PRESIDENT shared.

" The facts which led to the resignation of the Abbe
Gioberti are generally known. The question was the
military occupation of Tuscany for the purpose of re-es •
tablishing the Grand Duke Leopold on his throne. Being
authorised to do so by Charles Albert, the Able
Gioberti offered the armed aid of Piedmont to the Grand
Duke. This latter had already accepted this offer, when
opposed the realisa-
tionthe colleaguesp
roof j
et hc et Lctobialcie formallyived b y
the President of the
Council, and so led to the resignation of this latter.
We can state that the arrival of the Abbe Gioberti at
Paris is precisely connecttd with the project of inter-
vention in Tuscany. The Pinelli Ministry appears con-
vinced that the manifesto published by the Radical Cabi-
net of Turin, when the armistice was denounced, was a
snare set for the King to arrive at the political dismem-
berment of the Sardinian monarchy. In declaring, in
the face of Europe, that the old treaties were no longer
in force in the eyes of King Charles Albert, and that
the treaties of 1815 had been imposed on Italy, the
Ratizzi Ministry aimed at leading to the revival of the
protest which the delegates of the Republic of Genoa
had repeatedly brought forward before the Congress of
Vienna, against the incorporation of their country with
Piedmont. What is passing at present at Genoa gives
some weight to these suspicions. The revolutionary
fever, after having agitated Tuscany and Romagna,
threatens to come to a head in the states of the King
of Sardinia. Genoa ie on the point of detaching
itself from the rest of the monarchy, and to proclaim
the re-establishment of the Ligurian Republic. In this
state of things the new Ministry has deemed it opportune,
' in order to better guarantee the integrity of the Sardi-
nian monarchy, to adopt the plan of intervention con-
ceived by the Abbe Gioberti. Meanwhile the Able
has been charged to smooth down, by the aid of French
influence, the difficulties which the plan might meet with
in its execution. These difficulties are of a delicate
nature. When the Court of Vienna learned the inten-
tions of Charles Albert under the Gioberti Ministry, it

whilst reserving to 1 .

Albert the right to intervene directly
or indirectly. The

in Kopienrg
deplorable situation in which the Piedmoatese army
happens to be at present does not admit of the possi-
bility of its intervening in Tuscany, in spite of Aus-
tria. On the other hand, it appears urgent to the pre-
sent Sardinian Government that the revolution should
be put down in Central Italy, in order that the ultra
Sardinian party
i n
States Piedmont,
a I y sufficiently tried by the
already should not find a point of sup-
port there, and so succeed in completely overturning the
disasters of the war. In order, therefore, to conciliate
the rights and pretensions of Austria, with the impe-
ead
rious interests of the Sardinian monarchy, the Abl 6
Gioberti has come to demand for his plan of interven-
tion the adhesion and moral co-operation of the French
Cabinet. As to what regards the present disposition of
Austria, relative to the new King of Sardinia, we know

iVifniroiitieer:ngr;aliase the most positive instructions to avoid every-
thing that could humiliate the Royal dignity in Pied-
mont, and, on the contrary, to afford all his assistance
iu consolidating monarchical ideas. It is said, besides,
that the old Marshal entertains quite a paternal affec-
tion for the young Queen, whom he has known from her
childhood at Milan. The desire of not speaking but
with full knowledge has caused us to pass over in silence a
fact which appears to have sot the imagination of certain
journals at work. The fact is, the arrival at Paris of M.
de Hubner, secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
of Austria. M. de Hubner having been presented to the
President of the French Republic by M. Drouyn de
' Lhuys, the day alter the French Government had
learned the defeat of the Piedmontese army, inductions
altogether gratuitous were drawn from this fortuitous
coincidence. If we are well informed, the extraordinary
mission with which M. de Hubner is charged by his So-
vereign to the French Cabinet extends to the great ques-
tions which at this moment fix the attention of the Ca-
binets of Europe. The Court of Vienna appears to have
wished, by the organ of M. de l'ltibner, to expose and de-
velope frankly the principles which have served as the
constant basis of the foreign policy of the Imperial
Government, since the formation of the Schwartzenberg-
Stadion Cabinet, for the double object of showing that,
if Austria is decided to maintain intact the rights gua-
ranteed to her by public treaties, she does not intend to
attack any liberty legally acquired, and still less to pre-
vent the regular and pacific development of liberal ideas,
under the inspiration of which the Constitution granted
by the Emperor Francis Joseph was promulgated."
The Debats publishes a letter from Florence, which
states that it is the general opinion there that M.
Guaastazzr, who has been appointed Dictator, will 1
'make use of the powers conferred upon him to reed j
the Grand Duke, and thereby preclude the necessity

of foreign intervention. M. GUEBRAZZI is on bad
terms with the Republicans.

We" read in the -11foniteur—

" The Minister of Agriculture and Commerce, after
having considered the opinion expressed by the Chamber
cf Commerce and the Consulting Chambers of Arts and
Manufactures, has just decided that foreign articles are
not to be admitted this year to the Exhibition of In-
dustry. Ninety chambers had sent in answers to the
questions addressed to them—twenty-eight in favour of
admission, and forty-two against it. Twenty others
had simply akked fur a postponement to a better op-
portunity."
The Minister of Public Works has published a
notice in the Zttoniteur, declaring that, having re-
ceived a vast number of demands from workmen to
he admitted to take part in the Government works,
he is obliged to refuse interfering in the matter
personally, as the Government, in order to give
employment to as many workmen as possible, has
already done everything that the credits ellowtd by
the Assembly could pthsibly permit. Any demands
ought, therefere, to be made not to him, but to the
contractors of Government works, or to the Prefect
of the department where Government works, nut
contracted for, are going on.

PRUSSIA.

ANSWER OF THE KING TO THE FRANK-

FORT DEPUTATION.

The Prussian Staats Anzeiger of the 4th instant
gives the following account of the reception of the
Frankfort deputation of the KING'S answer to their
Address :

" BERLIN, APRIL 3.—At twelve o'clock this day his
Majesty received the deputation from the Frankfort
Parliament in the Knights' Hall. His Majesty was
surrounded by the Princes of the blood Royal a►;d the
Ministers. The deputation having been introduced by
Count Brandenburg, M. Simson, President of the Ger-
man National Assembly, read the following address:—
" The Legislative German National Assembly, which
was convoked in the spring of the last year by the
unanimous consent of the Princes of the nations of
Germany, for the purpose of constituting the German
Administration, did, on the 28th of January this year,
1849, after the promulgation of the German Imperial
Constitution, adopted after two readings, confer the
hereditary Imperial dignity founded therein upon your
Majesty.
" It has hereby expressed the firm conviction that the
Princes and nations of Germany will, in magnanimous
and patriotic agreement with the German National As•
sembly, use all their energy to carry out the resolution
adopted by it.
"It has resolved respectfully to invite the elected
Emperor, by deputation, to accept the dignity which has
fallen upon him on the basis of the constitution.
"To carry out this measure, the President of the
German National Assembly, and 32 of its members,
hereby wait upon your Majesty, with the respectful
confidence that your Majesty will be pleased to accede
to the enthusiastic expectations of our fatherland, which
has selected your Majesty to be the refuge and protec-
tion of its unity and power, as supreme head of the em-
pire, and respond to this request by a gracious ac-
quiescence."

I could not pursue the' enemy further, bit
the bridge is built, and I hope that in three or four
days I shall be able to take Kronstadt, and it will be
easy to bring back to legal order the Wallcchian
bands which still disturb, in some places, the security
of the ccuntry. If I tak e Kronstadt I shall direct a
part of my army upon Hungary.

BEM."
It will be seen from these bulletins that" ihe account
of General BEM'S having abandoned Hermanstait,
after having occupied it for a few hours,
and plundered it, is as untrue as most
of the intelligence furnished by our con-
temporaries respecting the war in Hungary.
13Em took Hermandstadt on the 11th, and the fore.
going bulletins (on the authenticity of which implicit
reliance may be placed), show that on the 16th he
was still in possession of that important town. The
extracts we have alrealy given from a German paper,
published in Hermanstadt, prove that the statement
of his having plundered it is equally unfounded.

SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN.
RENEWAL OF nosTILI rms.
lIAMBURGII, APRIL 4. Reports are current on
the Exchange, Lrought by travellers from Flens-
burg, that the Danes have commenced hostilities
by having landed on the Sundewitt, near Diippell,
yesterday, about 10,000 strong, and driven the
Holstein contingent before them towards Graven-
steM, where another body is said to have landed also.

Some 16 wounded had been conveyed into Flens-
burg, and others killed reported. It was &so said
that the Danes, about 16,000 strong, had crossed the
Konigsau, and the patriot and insurgent troops had
equally retired before them towards Hadersleben.
The refusal of the King of PRUSSIA to accept the
Imperial Crown of Germany for the present is also
known here, and has by no means given satisfaction.

ITALY.

The Paris Presse of yesterday publishes a letter
from Genoa, which thus describes the state of the
city :

‘-‘ The aenerale is now beating in every part of the
town, and firing is heard on all sides. General Mar-
mora has, it is said, entered by the Faubourg St. Martin.
and the revolutionists are preparing to stop his passage.
They will not sueceed. General Marmora is not a man
to retire, and the Republicans of Italy have not shown
themselves willing to stand before a fire of musketry.
All the English are embarking in haste, and the English
Consul gives protection to any one who demands it.
This movement of the Genoese is rrgarded by some as
likely to lead to serious complications. One thing, how-
ever, must be remarked, that the leaders of it are
neither numerous in their followers, nor are they men of
capacity and influence. It is a party who lost character
by their conduct in the late war, and they now revolt,
and fire on their countrymen, who desire to restore
order."

The King of SARDINIA has appointed his brother,
the Prince DE CARIGNAN, Commander of the National
Guards of the kingdom. General ROMARINI, who is
confined in the citadel of Turin, has offered to make
important revelations if his life is spared.
_ _

It is said that RADETZKY has consented that the
fortress of Alessandria shall not be occupied by Aus-
trian troops.
At the sitting of the Roman Constituent on the
27th, in answer to interpellations, the Minister of
War said that every citizen was a soldier, and those
between eighteen and thirty-six were amenable to
active service; that the army was under the command
of Colonel MEZZACAPA till the arrival of certain
foreign officers; that 30,000 guns had been ordered
in France, and 9,600 elsewhere, which it was hoped
would soon be received; that a manufactory for arms
was established, and that three large military depots
were about to be formed at Rome, Bologna, and
Ancona; and that the Government was prepared to
engage heartily and effectually in the war. in a few
days (he added) the union between Rome and Tus-
cany would be effected.
