WEST INDIA MAIL.

The Teviot, Captain Rivett, arrived at Southampton
yesterday, and landed her mails under the charge of
Lieut. John Hay, RN., Admiralty agent.
The dates received by the Teviot are—Santa Martha,
June 21; Chagres, 29; Carthagena, July 1; Jamaica,
8; St. Jago de Cuba, 5; Jame], 10; Demerara, 5;
Trinidad, 7; Barb%does, 10; Antigua, 12; Martinique,
1I ; Grenada, 8; Porto Rico, 12; St. Thomas, 15; La
Guayra, 7; and Fayal, 29.
The freight on board consisted of 1,111,008 dolls.
from Chagres, on account of merchants; gold dust,
2,1121.; British coin, 2,2311; silver, 3691. 125.; 10 cases
of cochineal, 13 cases of indigo, 18 cases of bark, 190
bales sarsaparilla, 68 packages sundries, and 13 cases
succadees.

There were 61 passengers in the Teviot, among whom
were Mr. Christy, her Majesty's agent and consul, Mus-
quito; Colonel Johnson, 66th; Captain Lovat, L3d West
India Regiment; Captain Smith, 54th; Lieut. Rath-
bone; Dr. Stewart, R.N., and family; Lieut. Stephens,
R.N.; ex-President Boyer, of Hayti, and family.
As will be seen from the above list, Mr. Christy, Bri-
tish agent and consul in Mosquito, has returned by this
packet.
From Greytown we learn that the Mosquito country
was tranquil, and symptoms of improvement at this
newly-named town. Nicaragua is in a very disturbed
state, and communication between the above-named
places is suspended, the Nicaragua boats being impressed
by the Government to quell disturbances. The ex-
President Carrera had re-entered Guatalema at the
head of an Indian force. That state is at present in
anarchy. The Vico-Consul, Mr. Green, bad come
from 13luefie/ds to take charge of British interests at
Greytown, in the absence of the consul and agent, Mr.
Christy, who has returned to this country on leave of
absence.

At Car thagena the cholera vias raging with great
viru!ence, as many as thirty persons a day have fallen
victims thereto; a quarantine of six days will in conse-
quence be imposed at Jamaica on all ships from Car-
tnagena. _ _

At Jacmel it was communicated that all was quiet,
and peace established between the San Dominicans and
Hayti; ns.

Another outbreak has occurred at Martinique and
Guadaloupo on account of the result of the recent elec-
tions there. It is said that at least thirty lives have
been lost in an affray cons(quent thereon. A squadron
of French ships have been compelled to bring th,ir guns
to bear on the town at Marie Galante, the blacks hav-
ing posf.e:.‘sion thereof.

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

Madame Sontag repeated the character of Rosins,
in Ii Barbiere di Seviglia, on Saturday, and was
enthusiastically received. The '.Roder' air excited a
greater furore, if that be possible, than on previous
occasions; in fact, the Sontag furore continues on
the increase. Thursday next will be a grand night
in the future history of the lyric drama in this
country. Sontag, Alboni, and Parodi, appear together
for the first time, and the opera is Le Nozze di
Figaro.

FRANCE.

In the Assembly, on Friday, M. Passy, Minister of
Finance, rose, and read, in a feeble voice, to the
Assembly an exposé of the situation of the Treasury.
He reviewed the different budgets during the last ten
years, and showed the deficit annually increasing.
The revolution of February had, moreover, aug-
mented the expenditure of 1848 by 265,000,000,
and occasioned a diminution in the produce of the
indirect taxes of 150,000,000. The proceeds of
the extraordinary tax of 45 centimes had not
sufficed to cover the difference. The final deficit
for 1849 was estimated at 91,000,000, but he did not
hesitate to extend it to 184,000,000. The whole de-
ficit on the Ist of January, 1850, would exceed
550,000,000. The expenditure for 1850 was fixed at
1,591,000,000, and the receipts being estimated at
1,270,000,000, the deficit would amount to
320,000,000. To cover that difference the Minister
asked to be authorised to negotiate a loan of
200,000,000 ; to create new taxes ; to annul the
reserve of the Sinking Fund ; and, in order to pro-
♦ide the means necessary for the construction of
public works, to issue Treasury obligations, bearing
interest to the amount required.
The President then announced that he had received
a letter from M. Emile Thomas, former Director of ,
the Ateliers Nationaux, applying for leave to prose-
cute M. Trelat, ex-Minister of Public Works, for acts
of his administration. The demand was referred to
the examination of the bureaux; after which, the
Assembly proceeded to discuss the project of law
relative to the direct taxes in 1850.
The National says—" We learn from good autho-
rity that the derisive conditions M. Lepredour has
thought fit to subscribe with the Argentine Republic
will not be ratified."

LONDON, MONDAY, AUGUST 6, 1849.

_
The worthy inhabitants of the ancient and loyal
city of Cork must have been taken considerably by
surprise when Thursday's evening breeze wafted the
booming of the artillery to their walls, as the royal
squadron steamed into their splendid harbour, and the
cannon's opening roar announced the advent of the
SOVEREIGN to her long-expecting Island of the West.
Yet, notwithstanding the anticipation of their long-
ings by the period of a diurnal revolution of the
sphere, the QUEEN experienced a right royal recep-
tion, unmarred by the bustle of hurry or em-
barassment, and conspicuous alike for enthusiasm
and for order. The admirable arrangements
which had been prepared by the excellent taste
of the leading citizens were developed in a manner to
fully satisfy their most ardent anticipations, and a
heartfelt outburst of loyal greeting to their beloved
SOVEREIGN emanated with equal fervour from the
poorest in the throng as from the most

siasm was universal, generous, and unaffected. It
must indeed have been a proud mome t
nt o those who
were spectators of the scene, when, amid the thunders
issuing from the brazen throats of war, the
ringing shouts of the vast multitudes who
lined the shores, and the thrilling cheers of
the sturdy tars of England, the most deservedly
popular Monarch that has ever graced the British
Throne first set her foot on the Irish soil. The little
town which her MAJESTIC, on the solicitation of the
inhabitants, graciously directed should henceforth
bear the name of Queenstown, may well be proud of
this memorable honour, and we trust that the hopes
which they indulge, that her visit may be the means
of accelerating the local improvements which have
been determined upon by the Government, which
would develop the great natural advantages of their
important harbour, and extend the blessings of
fairly paid employment to many artizans and la-
bourers, long pining in compulsory idleness, may be
fully and effectually realised. The sincere, cordial,
and truly Irish welcome, the " Cead mille fealtha,"
never more fervent or more well-founded, made an
Iv, evident impression on the first Lady of the land, and
did tacceding beauty of the scenery of the port and
river of 'COrk stied a genial glow on the superb
spectacle. The address subsequently presented by
the Mayor of Cork, whose knighthood on such
a momentous occasion is a high and enviable
honour, is entitled to no small commendation.
r It expresses a just hope—a hope which, we trust, may
bear its fruit through many a happy year—that plea-
sure and happiness may be diffused among his loyal

PRUSSIA.

The Cologne Gazette of the 21st announces that on
the 20,h the Chambers terminated their discussion of
the articles relative to the constitution of public in-
struction. Article 21 was adopted, as passed by the
First Chamber, and is as follows :
In the establishment of public military schools
every respect shall be paid to their religious per-
suasion.

'iue religious instruction in the popular schools
shall be conducted by the various religious bodies to
which the pupils belong. The conduct of secular
affairs shall be regulated by the commune in which
the school is situated. The Government has the
appointment of professors from among a list of ap•
proved candidates.
. . _ _

Article 22 was adopted as amended by the Com-
mission. The commune shall supply the funds
necessary for the establishment, support, and en-
largement of popular public schools. In such cases
where it is proved that the commune does not possess
the requisite funds, the deficiency shall be made up by
the state.

The state shall guarantee a competent salary to the
teachers according to the local circumstances of the
commune. Instruction is imparted gratuitously in
the popular public schools.
Article 23 was adopted provisionally until the
creation of a special board on instruction, until which
time the present mode of instruction will remain in
vigour.
From the same journal we extract the following

"The Council ofAdministration, in an extraordinary
sitting held the day before yesterday, has at length
adopted a resolution which will be of the greatest
importance to Germany.
" All the plenipotentiaries of the Federal States
were present except those of Hanover, Saxony, and
Mecklenburg Strelitz. _

" The sitting wax opened by the Prussian Plenipo-
tentiary, President of the Council, who read notes
from Hanover and Saxony of the Ist and 4th Nov.,
and the replies thereto by Prussia.
" He then proposed that they should be submitted
to the committee for the modification of the projects.
"This proposition was adopted, and the council
then proceeded to fix the terms for the elections. The
interval from this day to the kith January appeared
too short, and the 31st was consequently agreed upon.
The resolution to convoke the sitting of the Diet at
Erfurt was passed unanimously.
" The above resolutions were communicated imme•
diately by the Administrative Council to the Presi-
dent of the two Chambers."

The semi•official lithographed correspondence says
—"The report the committee drawn up by Mr.
CAMPEAUSEN, from the documents deposited in the
ministry, relative to the German question, speaks
very energetically against those Governments which
separated from the alliance of the 28th of May. It
proves also the advantage which will accrue to Prussia
by the treaty of the 30th September, by settling all
the differences of that kingdom with Austria."

CONIMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.)

(Sittings in Banco.)
ADAMSON V. LONG.
Mr. Sergeant BYLES applied for a rule to show cause
Why an award in this case should not be set aside, on the
ground of a mistake on the part of the arbitrator, and
of the award not being certain or final. This was an
action in trespass with respect to some land at Rich-
Mond, and was referred by consent. The first issue was
not guilty. It was agreed between the parties, and the
nature of the agreement was communicated to the ar-
bitrator, that the tresspaas should be admitted, but the
arbitrator found a verdict on that issue for the defendant.
The declaration described the abuttAls of the close or
land which was the subject-matter of the action; but, as
it did not appear from the evidence of the witnesses ex-
amined before the arbitrator that the whole of it be-
longed to the plaintiff, he had made a mistake in point
of law in assuming that he could not, upon the issue i❑
question, say the defendant was guilty of trespass, modo
et forma.
The COURT granted a rule nisi to set aside the award,
On the ground of the alleged mistake of the arbitrator;
but as to the want of certainty or finality of the award,
the rule was not granted.

TURKEY.

Letters from Orsova state that the Hungarian re-
fugees, before their departure from Widdin to
Shumla, were addressed by KossuTH, who eulogised
in enthusiastic terms the generous conduct of the
Porte and of the Padischa, and declared that Turkey
had acquired for herself imperishable glory by her
generous hospitality. He also praised England for
' the energetic attitude she had assumed ; and assured
his countrymen that in a new war, and by new
victories, they would again conquer the liberties of
Hungary.

Barley meets with little attention, and is is per quarter

LIVERPOOL, Nov. 23.—This morning's corn market
was slenderly attended, and the business done in any
article was in moderate quantities. Fine fresh wheat,
and the top brands of flour, fully supported the quota-
tions of Tuesday last. Mealing oats are scarce, and
steady in price. Beans and peas could not be bought so
well as of late. Barley was without alteration in value.
Indian corn was held with firmness; if holders would
make a concession of 6d per quarter, a fair quantity
would be taken by speculators.
STOWMARKET, Nov. 22.—Seed operations are about
concluded in these districts, and, as it respects weather,
never under more auspicious circumstances. In conse-
quence of the universal employment of our farmers in
fieldwork, our supplies have been so short as to render
much business impossible. Now, however, both wheat
and barley are offered in larger quantities, and our
supplies are likely to be great, especially of the latter
grain. Wheat is this week slow sale, at a reduction of
Is to 2s per quarter from the rates of last week. For
barley there is a fair demand at Is per quarter abatement
There are not so many beans and peas offering as might
have been expected, and they readily realise late
quotations.
NEWBURY, Nov. 22.—Our supply of wheat is only
moderate, yet more than equal to the demand, which is
extremely slack, at a reduction of fully is per quarter
from the rates of last week. Barley, a large supply;

BELGIUM.

BRUSSELS, Nov. 22.—The strike among the weavers
at Ghent still continues, but they are beginning to
come round and make proposals for an accommodation.
The manufacturers on the other hand, hold out, and
persist in not making any concessions, being con-
vinced that the question involves the very existence
of the cotton manufacture. In one of the mills some
of the people have resumed work, but they were
obliged to have a body of police to protect them in
going in and coming out. It is impossible that this
state of things can continue beyond another week, for
the workmen are quite at a stand-still ; all their re-
sources are exhausted, and the people refuse to give
them credit.

(From the United Service Gazette of this day,_
NICARAGUA AFFAIRS.—We have heard, from good
authority, that Lord Palmerston is determined to
allow of no American interference in Nicaragua
affairs, and that, at all events, British interests shall
not be menaced either on the West Indies' side or Ow
Pacific side of Nicaragua. His Lordship, we are
informed, has acted most promptly in the matter, and
that, in order to forward dispatches to the Com-
mander-in-Chief in the Pacific on the subject, the
West India packet was detained for some hours at
Southampton, on Saturday last. Rear-Admiral
Hornby, it is said, is ordered up with his squadron to
cruise in the neighbourhood of Panama, and to be
within call of the British Charge d'Affaires at
Nicaragua.
CLUBI GOSSIP 3DIDRAOOON GUARDS.—IC is ru-
moured that in the event of the retirement of Lieu-
tenant-Colonel Arthur from the command of this
Regiment, he will be succeeded by an officer from the
6th Carabiniers, decidedly one of the best Corps in
Service. It is very desirable that an Officer should
be selected from a regiment in a good and efficient
state of discipline, should the vacancy occur to which
we alktde.

AFRICA.—A report has arrived from the coast of
Africa, to the effect that Commodore Fanshawe was
about to send home his resignation of the Command
in Chief of the Station.
Lieutenant Cowper, 86th Regiment, has been ap-
pointed a Superintending Officer of the Recruiting
Department, in the London District.
THE CHOLERA IN THE DOCKYARDS.—The Admi-
ralty, in answer to a respectful application, have
decided that artificers who were absent from their
work whilst suffering from cholera cannot be allowed
their pay.
ROYAL DOCKYARD BRIGADES.—In reply to an
application to the Admiralty from those Dockyard
Brigades that have not received their Commissions,
the Admiralty have informed them that no Commis-
sions will be issued until the services of the corps are
called for.

PRUSSIA.

The Cologne Gazette of the 21st announces that on
the 20th the Chambers terminated their discussion of
the articles relative to the constitution of public in-
struction. Article 21 was adopted, as passed by the
First Chamber, and is as follows :
In the establishment of public military schools
every respect shall be paid to their religious per-
suasion. _

The religious instruction in the popular schools
shall be conducted by the various religious bodies to
which the pupils belong. The conduct of secular
affairs shall be regulated by the commune in which
the school is situated. The Government has the
appointment of professors from among a list of ap.
proved candidates.
Article 22 was adopted as amended by the Com-
mission. The commune shall supply the funds
necessary for the establishment, support, and en-
largement of popular public schools. In such cases
where it is proved that the commune does not possess
the requisite funds, the deficiency shall be made up by
the state.
The state shall guarantee a competent salary to the
teachers according to the local circumstances of the
commune. Instruction is imparted gratuitously in
the popular public schools.
Article 23 was adopted provisionally until the
creation of a special board on instruction until which
time the present mode of instruction will remain in
vigour.
From the same journal we extract the following :
"The Council of Administration, in an extraordinary
sitting held the day before yesterday, has at length
adopted a resolution which will be of the greatest
importance to Germany.
" All the plenipotentiaries of the Federal States
were present except those of Hanover, Saxony, and
Mecklenburg Strelits. _ _ _

" The sitting waa opened by the Prussian Plenipo-
tentiary, President of the Council, who read notes
from Hanover and Saxony of the Ist and 4th Nov.,
and the replies thereto by Prussia.
" He then proposed that they should be submitted
to the committee for the modification of the projects.
" This proposition was adopted, and the council
then proceeded to fix the terms for the elections. The
interval from this day to the llith January appeared
too short, and the 31st was consequently agreed upon.
The resolution to convoke the sitting of the Diet at
Erfurt was passed unanimously.
" The above resolutions were communicated imme-
diately by the Administrative Council to the Presi-
dent of the two Chambers."

The semi-official lilhographed correqmderuie says
—"The report the committee drawn up by Mr.
CAMPHAUSEN, from the documents deposited in the
ministry, relative to the German question, speaks
very energetically against those Governments which
separated from the alliance of the 28th of May. It
proves also the advantage which will accrue to Prussia
by the treaty of the 30th September, by settling all
the differences of that kingdom with Austria."

TURKEY.

Letters from Orsova state that the Hungarian re-
fugees, before their departure from Widdin to
Shumla, were addressed by KOSSUTH, who eulogised
in enthusiastic terms the generous conduct of the
Porte and of the Padischa, and declared that Turkey
had acquired for herself imperishable glory by her
generous hospitality. He also praised England for
the energetic attitude she had assumed ; and assured
his countrymen that in a new war, and by new
victories, they would again conquer the liberties of
Hungary.

question ; that a decree existed confirming the fueros
of those princes, which M. Silva appeared to leave

FRANn.FORT.

Archduke JOHN has announced his intention of
returning to Frankfurt on the 26th of Anost. He
is reported to have demanded that the fortress of
Rastadt, which the Baden insurgents have just sur-
rendered to the Prussian troops, be placed at his dis-
posal, and the new Governor a,,pointed by himself, as
sole representative of the "Central power." A letter
from Frankfort, of the 27th of July, says that a treaty
of alliance, offensive and defensive, is about to be
concluded between Bavaria and Austria, and that if
negotiations are not yet terminated, it is owing
to the hope that Wurtemburg will consent to enter
into the alliance against Prussian supremacy.

The father of the plaintiff is a farmer at Middleton,
in this county; the defendant is the son of a farmer, who
died last Christmas, and who al‘n re!,ided, in th, n...me
villige. During his futher'i lifetime he rnatiag.ql the
farm (240 acres) for him, and now he manages it iur his
mother. The parties were neighbours. The plaintiff
is now twenty years of age, the defendant 25. An inti-
macy sprang up between the parties, and in the end, the
plaintiff; yielding to the solicitations of the defendant,
became pregnant. The promise of marriage was made
out by a sister of the plaintiff, from a conversation
overheard by the sister which passed between plaintiff
and defendant. She was telling Cox her father was
very angry she had done so, and she wished they should
get married, observing, " She would have a home as long
as she wanted, and as long as her father had got a-home."
The defendant said, " Where you are, there I shall be,"
and laughed. She said, "It is not a laughing matter;"
to which he made answer, "It is not a crying matter; I
shall not cry, and you have no occasion. Ile further
said, " We can't be married now, but we will as soon as
harvest is in, if you can wait till then." She replied she
was willing to do that;" he said, " I will marry you,
Nanny, if we have to leave home and go to New Zea-
land.' The same night an interview took place between
the father and the defendant, the plaintiff being present
The father told Cox he had ruined his daughter, and he
said he had not. He asked him whether he intended to
marry her? his reply was, " Not at present." The father
told him he bad ruined the girl and the family. The de-
fendant said he had not, and that he did not know the
child was more likely to be his than other people's, and
intimated his suspicions of one " Dick Parker." This
turned out, however, to be without the slightest foun-
dation.
The jury ultimately found for the plaintiff-751.

AMENDMENT BILL.

The Lords' amendments to this Bill were considered
and agreed te.
ROYAL PAVILION (BRIGHTON) BILL.
After a brief discussion as to the propriety of the in•
troduction of the word "shall" instead of "may," by
the Lords, which made it compulsory to pull down the
chapel in connexion with the Pavilion, the amendments
were agreed to.
CHAPELS OF EASE (IRELAND) BILL.

The Lords' amendments to this Bill were considered
and agreed to.
JUDGMENTS (IRELAND) BILL.
The Lords' amendments to this Bill were also agreed to
PETTY BAG, &c., OFFICES AMENDMENT BILL.
The Lords' amendments to this Bill were also agreed to.
BANKRUPTCY (IRELAND) BILL.
On the question that the Lords' amendments be con-
sidered and agreed to,
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL took occasion to
deny an assertion made in another place, that clauses
had been introduced into this Bill to enable the Lord
Chancellor of Ireland to find lucrative offices for a por-
tion of his family.
Mr. ROEBUCK called attention to the blunders that
had resulted from hurrying over Bills, and passing
clauses, without discussion. He suggested that this
evil could be got rid of by appointing some responsible
officer to compare and correct the technical errors of all
Bills prior to their being finally passed..
The amendments were then considered and agreed to.
London, England, 1849-08-01

ITALY.

Intelligence has been received from Rome of the
22d ult.

The civil Government is administered in the
name of the PorE, but the French retain military
possession of the city. The POPE remains at Gaeta,
and is the mere tool of the Cardinal Camarilla.
Acting under their influence, he obstinately refuses to
accede to the representations of the Ministers of the
Catholic Powers, and insists upon being restored
without making any concessions, and on being per-
mitted to revive the Inquisition, and to inaugurate a
reign of reactionary terror by means of the scaffold,
the rack, and the dungeon.
It is said that GARIBALDI has escaped in disguise
to Sicily.
A spirit-stirring proclamation has been addressed
to the Romans by MAzzm, in which he recommends
them to endure with constancy and firmness the
calamity of foreign intervention which smites them
at present, and not to give way to discouragement.
He calls upon the Municipalities to repeat with firm-
ness that they adhere voluntarily to the Republican
form and to the abolition of the temporal power of
the POTE, and that they consider every government il-
legal which has not been freely approved by the people.
He says---"
with the government of Priests! Free suffrage for ever!'
Let the cry be constantly heard, Down
All those who have sworn allegiance to the Republic
should divest themselves of their functions when-
ever the Pontifical colours have been hoisted. A
whole nation cannot be put in prison. The Roman
Assembly is not dissolved. The Triumvirs, although
their public action has been suspended by brutal force,
only await the favourable moment 'to convoke it again."
It would be well that the Members of the Consti-
tutional Government of Sicily should follow the ex•
ample of the members of the Government of the
Roman Republic, and keep themselves organized so as
to be able to take advantage, at a moment's notice, of
"the good time that's coming."
