AUSTRIA.

Accounts from Vienna are to the Bth inclusively.
. On the 7th the city witnessed the grand celebra-
tion of Corpus Christi, in the pageants of which the
young EMPEROR was well received by the population.
VIENNA, JUNE 6.—The future destination of Baron
Von Welden appears to be not Vienna, but Venice,
after he shall have recovered from his present illness.
The Gratz Zeitung says—" When Field-Marshal
Baron Von Welder rt ceivad the intelligence of the fall
of •Oten he exclaimed, wash my hands from this
matter; it is as I predicted beforehand." Toe garri-
son of Olen is said to have remained there cor.trtAT
to his desire, and by the will of the Minister of War.
In .reply to thee assertions, which appear to im-
pute the catastrophe to the ex-Minister of War, a
semi-official declaration has been issued, when in it is
stated that the leaving of a garrison at Oren does not
lie within the provinces of the Minister of War, but
within that of the Commander-in-Chief. The docu-
ment further says that °fen would have held out
longer had there not been treachery within walls.
The Russians have already broken up their camp
at Sanheide, near Presburg. About 10.000 men,
with 18 batteries, have gone to the island of Schutt
One battalion alone remained behind, and will for the
present mount guard at Presburg. One division of
the Russian corps darniee, with 24 18 pounders,
elite) ed Tynan on the 31st, while other divinions
occupied the surrounding vill.,ges. The artillery
travelled further, and took a pctitioa at Czifl'er.
The Austrian corps darmee, standing on this side
of the Waug, is all concentrating at the Danube, for
the purpose of advancing against Pesth.
On the 4th one of the conitnandants of Leopold-
stadt, Baron Mednianski, and a colonel of artillery of
this fortress, were sentenced to death by hanging.
The execution took place
.at Presburg ou the follow-
ing day.
Numbers of wounded continue to arrive at Vienna
from Presburg ; on the 6th the steamers brought uo
less than 400 men. They were all taken to the
hospital in the Angarten.
The cholera has not )et disappeared, or, rather, it
has re-appeared with renewed virulence. Since the
4th 17 cases of cholera have occurred-3 in Leopol
stadt, 5 in Rastendorf and Sechshans, and 9 in the
suburb of Landstrasse, which is very severely visited
by it. Four of the cases have already proved fatal.

ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.

The opera of Semiramide was performed here on Tuesday
for the rentree of Madame Grisi and the debut of Mademoiselle
Angri, who sustained the character of Arsace. Her voice is
one of immense power and great compass, although some-
what deficient in :quality, particularly in the lower
notes, which are at times husky, her upper notes, however,
are clear and brilliant. Her manner of giving "Ali! qual
giorno d'orror" was very fine, and earned for her sonic
enthusiastic applause, and in the " giorno d'orrore" she was
honoured with an encore. Her acting is full of
passion and energy, albeit somewhat deficient in grace. Her
success was complete. Grisi, who was in admirable voice,
was as magnificent as ever in Semiramide, and Tamburini as
Assur, was all that could be desired.

Her Royal highness the Duchess of Cambridge, accom-
panied by the Princess Mary of Cambridge, honoured the
performance with their presence last evening, and occupied
her Majesty's box; they were attended by Mr. Edmund
Mildmay and Baron kohler. Among the visitors there
were also present—His Excellency the Greek Minister and
Madame Italli, their Excellencies the Sardinian Minister,
the American Minister, and the Brazilian Minister; the

SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN

The Borsenhalle (under date of Hamburgh, April
15) confirms the intelligence of the German troops
having stormed and possessed themselves of the re-
doubts of Duppel, and further states that they had
been then driven from them by the fire of the
Danish gunbca's and the batteries of the Isle of Alsen.
The same journal (under date of Flensburgh, April
14) says the battle was carried beyond Duppel,
towards Ballegrave and Bardesboy on the north,
and on the east to Ulderup. The Danish troops
took refuge in Alsen, and the Germans pushed
on to Alsensuna. The combat was very fierce, the
number of slain being estimated at 1,000, which,
however, appears to be exaggerated. The Danes
themselves destroyed the bridge between Alsen and
Sundewit, on which occasion two or three of their
battalions were driven at the point of the bayonet into
the water. The mill of Duppel and several farms
were destroyed by fire.
Intelligence from Flensburgh of the 14th states,
that on the previous evening the Danes in consider-
able force occupied the Isle of Foehr, and many of
the inhabitants took to flight.

AUSTRIA.

vrcroßY OF THE HUNGARIANS.—THE
AUSTRIANS EXPELLED FROM PESTH.
Letters from Vienna of the 13th state that on the
12th the Magyar army, under the command of BEM
and MESSAROS, completely defeated the Austrians,
commanded by WINDISCUGRATZ and JELLACHICH,
at Wait zen. The town of Waitzen was taken by
storm by the Hungarians. General BEM, leaving a
pDrtion of his troops under the command of MES-
saßos, advanced with the remainder on Pesth,
which city he entered on the 12th. The Magyars
are once more in possession of their capital.
By this victory the Magyars have opened the road
to Comorn, and the besiegers have by this time pro-
bably either decamped or surrendered to GEGROY,
who was advancing to the relief of the fortress. The
Imperial General DAMIANICII has been taken by the
Magyars.
All the Ministers were summoned to Olmutz on

the 13th by telegraph. It is said that, alarmed by
the course events are taking in Hungary, the Aus-
trian Cabinet is desirous of offering to the Magyars
to secure to them the Constitution of March, 1848,
in its entirety, a course which is opposed by Count
STADION, who will, it is expected, resign.
The Allgenseine Zeitung of the 13th says :
" It was officially announced last night that Russian
reinforcements are to march over the Transylvanian
frontiers, from distinct quarters, in bodies of 30,000 men
each. If Austria had not this support this war would
ere now have terminated. The battle of Comorn will
decide the fate of Hungary."
Count DE MEDEN, the Russian Ambassador, left
Vienna for Olmutz on the 30th, to take part in the de-
liberations of the Cabinet.

DEFERRED ANNUITIES.

By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to
afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con-
tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving. may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or,
at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removed all risk
of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives.
The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
tages which the judicious application of a small saving caa secure
trough this Society.

RICOYBRING FROM A HUNDRED FOR INJURY BY POPU•
LACE.-NARNWELL V. THE INHABITANTS OF WINTER

mow.
This was en action against a hundred to recover com-
pensation in damages for the destruction of some pro-
perty of the plaintiffs by a tumultuous assemblage. It
appeared that the plaintiffs were miners near Chedder, and
had been for some time in the habit of washing their ore at
a river near their works. The ore, it appeared, impreg-
nated the water with the deleterious compound white
lead, and the inhabitants getting afraid that they would
be poisoned, went en masse in the night armed, and de-
stroyed the washing utensils of the plaintiffs. The ver
diet at the trial went for the plaintiffs, damages 1301.
Mr. CROWDER now moved for a rule calling upon the
plaintiffs to show cause why the verdict should not be
set aside, a non-suit entered, or the verdict taken upon
certain counts, on the ground that the offence of the
inhabitants was not a telony, as set forth in the Act 7
and 8 Geo. IV., c. 30, which made the destruction of
certain property punishable by death, but the capital
penalty was some time ago abolished, yet the offence
was clearly set forth as a felony. He contended that
the property destroyed was not of the nature within the
terms of the Act.
The CouaT granted a rule to show cause.

SHERIFFS' COURT.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Under-Sheriff BURCHELL.)
CAMPBELL V. GREGORY.
This was an action to recover the sum of 2001. on two
guarantees given by the defendant.
The facts of the case are these:—The plaintiff is a
brewer at Edinburgh, and detendant is a cabinet-maker
in London street, Tottenham-court-road. Up to 1844
plaintiff had supplied a person named Wm. Archibald
Me. ban-, a brewer, &c., at Clapham, with ales; but
Meehans becoming bAnkrupt, and his certificate being
suspended, the bwinrss was carried en in She name of
his son, and a debt arose to the amount of 1,1871., and
guarantees were given by thefendant and others.
'I he defendant suffered jadgment to go by default, the
jury, therefore, gave a verdict for the amount claimed.

bably be made on' Monday.

PRUSSIA.

The Ministry were on the 14th defeated in the
Second Chamber on the first clause of their Placard
Bill, by a majority of 162 to 148.
The Deutsche Reform of the 14th says—
" The eircular note of the 3d April has called forth a
reply from Austria, which, if we mistake not, arrived: on
the evening of the 11th. Austria protests therein
ag(!inst the right of Pruria to undertake either pro-
visionally or definitively the conduct of German af-
fairs. She protests against the formation of the
narrower 134indes-ataat, as well as against every
organic alteration of the relations which have subsisted
hitherto, without the consent of all the German Govern-
ments. She puts in her veto against every new modi-
fication of Germany which does not favour her own
views, and presumes to give these declarations in a domi-
neering tone, seldom employed in diplomatic intercourse
between great Powers. We have, with much satisfac-
tion, learned that the Prussian Government has returned
a becoming reply to so much presumption, and has in-
sisted firmly upon the policy laid down in the note of
April 3. 'The course of the Ministry upon the German
question may be, therefore, assumed to have taken a
favourable turn."

MONEY MARKET.—The premium on gold at Paris
is 71 par mille, which, at the English Mint price of
31 17s. 1041. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex-
change of 25.34; and the exchange at Paris on London
at short being 25.321, it follows that gold is 0.06 per
cent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advices from
llamburgh the price of gold is 437 per mark, which, at
the English Mint price of 3L 17s. 101 d. per ounce for
standard gold, gives an exchange of 13.11; and the
exchange at Ham burgh on London at short being 13.101,
it follows that gold is 0.11 per cont. dearer in Hint-
burgh *an in London.

TURKEY.

Redschid Pasha is indefatigable in his exertions to
render the naval and military forces of the Turkish
empire in a state of the utmost efficiency. Mer-
chantmen sailing under the Turkish flag are for-
bidden to leave the harbour, and an exact account is
taken of the tonnage of every ship. Troops are being
sent to the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles, and also to
Thessaly. Prince Woronzow is collecting a numerous
army in Georgia and the Crimea, with which it is
probable he will approach Constantinople from Lesser
Asia. The Greek ships which in the winter season
usually congregate, in order to run out into the Black
Sea at the beginning of spring, are exciting a good
deal of suspicion in the Turkish authorities. More
than 2,000 of them have been preventing from quit-
ting the harbour. M. Rosas, the Greek Consul, has
written to his Government for instructions on this
subject. The Russian Ambassador, M. Titoff, pro-
tested against this, and insisted upon making the
Porte responsible for any damage which might arise
from this arbitrary measure.

PRUSSIA.

The Ministry were on the 14th defeated in the
Second Chamber on the first clause of their Placard
Bill, by a majority of 162 to 148.
The Deutsche Reform of the 14th says—

"The circular note of the 3d April has called forth a
reply from Austria, which, if we mistake not, arrived: on
the evening of the 11th. Austria protests therein
agoinst the right of Prussia to undertake either pro-
♦isionally or definitively the conduct of German af-
fairs. She protests against the formation of the
narrower Bander-staat, as well as against every
organic alteration of the relations which have subsisted
hitherto, without the consent of all the German Govern-
ments. She puts in her veto against every new modi-
fication of Germany which does not favour her own
views, and presumes to give these declarations in a domi-
neering tone, seldom employed in diplomatic intercourse
between great Powers. We have, with much satisfac-
tion, learned that the Prussian Government has returned
a becoming reply to so much presumption, and has in-
sisted firmly upon the policy laid down in the note of
April 3. The course of the Ministry upon the German
question may be, therefore, assumed to have taken a
favourable turn."

CHANCERY.—(THIS DAY.)
Tho Lord Chancellor at in his Court at Westmin-
ster today, to give judgments and hear appeal motions.
IN RE JOINT-STOCK COMPANIES' WINDING•U? ACT, ♦ND
IN RE THE AGRICULTURAL INSURANCE COMPANY.-
JUDGMENT.

The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment this morning
in this case, which came before him a few days since,
upon appeal from an order of the Vice-Chancellor
Knight Bruce, dismissing a petition, with eosta, presented
by two gentlemen named Sparkman, under the winding-
up Act, to wind up the company. The Lord Chancellor,
after going at some length into the case, stated his opi-
nion to be, that there was no ground for the Court's
acceding to the prayer of the petition, and the applica-
tion must therefore be dismissed with costs. The result
of this judgment is to affirm the decision of the Court
below, and dismiss the appeal with costs.

DEFERRED ANNUITIES.

By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to
afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta-
geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con-
tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se-
cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or,
at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his
death ; while by giving to the purchaser, at any fine, the power of
borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk
of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording
an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and
should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipulated period, two-
thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives.
The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
tages which the Judicious application of a small saving caa secure
hruugh this Society.

SCHLESW IG-HOLSTEIN.

The Borsenhalle (under date of Hamburgh, April
15) confirms the intelligence of the German troops
having stormed and possessed themselves of the re-
doubts of Duppel, and further states that they had
been then driven from them by the fire of the
Danish gunburts and the batteries of the Isle of Alsen.
The same journal (under date of Flensburgh, April
14) says the battle was carried beyond Duppel,
towards Ballegrave and Bardesboy on the north,
and on the east to Ulderup. The Danish troops
took refuge in Alsen, and the Germans pushed
on to Alsensuna. The combat was very fierce, the
number of slain being estimated at 1,000, which,
however, appears to be exaggerated. The Danes
themselves de3troyed the bridge between Alsen and
Sundewit, on which occasion two or three of their
battalions were driven at the point of the bayonet into
the water. The mill of Duppel and several farms
were destroyed by fire.
Intelligence from Flensburgh of the 14th states,
that on the previous evening the Danes in consider-
able force occupied the Isle of Foehr, and many of
the inhabitants took to flight.
London, England, 1849-04-19

FRANKFORT.

At a meeting held on the 13th, the principal part of
the Austrian Deputies decided to continue sitting in
the Church of St. Paul. Fifteen only determined on
departing ; but they were prevailed on to stop to hear
the report of the
.Committee of 30, which will pro-
bably be made on Monday.
London, England, 1849-06-13

DENMARK.

In consequence of the Central Government of Ger-
many having sequestered the property of the Danish
Government which fell into its power, the Danish
Minister of Finance bas notified that so long as the
sequestration shall exist, he will not pay to German
capitalists the interest on loans contracted in 1794 and
1806, at Hanover and Frankfort.
The Danish Diet was dissolved on the sth instant.
The following is the speech from the throne:—
"Danes—You have accomplished the mission imposed
upon you. I have consented to the modifications which
you have proposed in the project of the Constitution
*hich I presented to you; I have this morning ratified
and signed the Constitution of Denmark.
"This work, which will be the basis of the future
development of our beloved country, is therefore
happily terminated by reason of - the good un-
derstanding which subsists between the Govern-
ment and the people of Denmark ; but our
country stills groans beneath the oppressive
thraldom of war—a war equally severe and unjust, im-
posed upon us by the numerical superiority of the enemy.
Under these circumstances, the necessity of the co-ope-
ration of the nation may render it advisable for the Diet
to assemble sooner than the time fixed by the Constitu-
don. I therefore reserve to myself, while dissolving ttie
present Assembly, the power of convoking you again as
the representatives of the people.
" May Almighty God shed his blessing upon the work
which we have just completed, in order that it may yield
substantial benefit to Denmark."

The Assembly replied by nine rounds of cheers.
His MAJESTY, in retiring, exclaimed, " Gentlemen, I
thank you; the Lord be with you."

ITALY.

The Piedmontese Gazette publishes the following
telegraphic dispatch received at Turin on the 7th :
" On the evening of the sth the French were still
fighting against the Romans. The Villa Corsini has
been taken. Details are wanting." The same paper
states that the King of SARDINIA labours under a
miliary eruption, which, being of a mild character,
is considered a favourable sign.
The Concordia of Turin, of the Bth, states that the
Italian Tyrol is in open insurrection, and that
guerrillas have been formed in the valleys of Brescia
and Bergamo.

The Risorgimento of Turin of the Bth says that
Russia has offered Tuscany a loan of 70,000,000,
which would enable the Tuscan Government to with-
driw a number of exchequer-bills issued by the late
Government. The same paper states, that French
vessels have been allowed to enter the port of Ancona,
and that a large supply of war stores had been sent by
the Austrians from Ferrara into Romagno.
A rumour was current that the Neapolitans had
arrived again at Velletri on the 3d. The secretary
of M. DE BRUCK had arrived at Turin to resume the
negotiations for peace.

COLONEL.

" Colonel,—Convinced that the army of Italy is acting
against the wishes of France, against the desire of the
Constituent Assembly, and is violating the Constittriun
by the will of a Government which betrays the Republic
and liberty ;
" Convinced that the deposits of the C institution and
the rights which it confers are confided to the patriotism
of all citizens;
Convinced that it is time to apply a remedy to the
evil, and to avoid by wise and prompt measures the mis-
fortunes of a civil war;
" The undersigned request you to immediately as-
semble the legion to prote..t with that energy which
becomes free men, before the Legislative Assembly and
the Executive power, against the fratricidal war carried
on against Rome, in violation of Articles 5 and 54 of the
Constitution.
