BELGIUM•

The Journal de Bruxelles says—" We have re-
ceived information from London, which may be of
the greatest importance to us if it is carried into effect.
It is, that Lord JOHN RUSSELL intends to bring a
Bill into Parliament laying a duty of five shillings a
quarter on foreign wheat. In this procedure the
Prime Minister has a twofold object—in the first
instance to secure a very considerable influx into the
Mersey, and in the second to protect the British
agricultural interest against a superabundant intro•

duction of foreign corn into the markets. It is on
the other side of the water, as it is here ; the price of
corn has fallen so low, that it scarcely gives a return
to the farmer to cover his actual outlay."

FRANKFORT.

Accounts from Frankfort to the 2d, in the Cologne
Gazette, state that the clubs have resumed their
regular sittings. Those of the Left have resolved, in
the event of the rejection of the proposals relative to
a Directory or the establishment of a temporary
central power, to abstain from voting at all on the
proposal for electing an Emperor for life. They are
endeavouring to secure the acquiescence of the Aus-
trian clubs.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.

WAKEFIELD, JAN. s.—The supplies are good of wheat
and barley, and moderate of other grain. There is not
much business passing in wheat, and the prices of last
week are barely supported. Barley is rather cheaper,
and demand confined to heavy qualities. Oats and
shelling sell slowly at last week's prices. Beans and
other articles without change.

NOTICE TO MARINERS.
Admiralty, Jan. 3, 1849.

Sir,—l am commanded by my Lords Commissioners
of the Admiralty to transmit to you herewith printed
Notices to Mariners respecting aiditionel harbour lights
t Ostend.

(Signed) W. A. B. HAMILTON.
Capt. G. A. Halsted, R.N., Secr'tary, Lloyd's.
" ADDITIONAL HARBOUR LIGHTS AT
OSTEND.

- - " " Hydrographic-office, Dec. 27, 1848.
"The Belgian Government has given notice that, at
an early period, a fixed light will be established on the
extremities of each of the two piers, or jetties, which
form the entrance of the port of o.stend.
" The light on the western pier will be green, twenty-
three feet high, and visible at the distance of four or five
riles.
" The light on the eastern pier will be red; of the same
elevation as the former.
" The green light will be shown at sunset, and extin-
guished at sunrise; but the red light will not be lighted
till the flood-tide has thrown in at least nine feet of water
between the pier-heads, and will be extinguished when
the present tide lights are lighted.
"As soon as the present tide lights are extinguished,
during the ebb, the red light will be again shown, and
continued till the falling tide has lowered the water be-
tween the jetty heads to nine feet, when it will be ex-
tinguished.
" In bad weather, :when there can be no communica-
tion with the pier heads, these arrangements must of
course be interrupted; and all vessels are cautioned not
to attempt the harbour of Ostend when the tide lights
are not displayed."

FR tiNKFORT.

A letter from Frankfort, of the Ist, says—" M. de
Gagern, Chief of the Cabinet of the Empire, has had
a conference with the Commissioners of the several
German Governments, on the subject of their con-
tingents in money. As to the first payment of the
fleet (1,500,000 florins), Austria declared that her
own fleet had always been employed in the Mediter-
ranean for the benefit of all Germany, and that this
fleet was worth a great deal more than the contin-
gents demanded. Austria added that she would pay
less than ever at this moment, her relations with Ger- -,
many not yet being regulated. Prussia had made
her first payment, and even those for several States
of the Zollverein ; but did not know whether the
same thing would be necessary a second time.
Bavaria said that she had done enough for the service
of the empire by placing her troops at its disposal,
and so far from being called to pay, she was entitled
to payment. With respect to the expenses occa-
sioned by the Imperial troops, Brunswick declared
that a little state ought to be allowed to profit by the
presence of the troops on its territory, and that it
would be unjust to make any Government, which had
maintained order in its own territories, as, for ex-
ample, Prussia and Hanover, pay a portion of the ex-
penses of sending Imperial troops to Baden, Thu-
ringen, &c. Prussia declared that she would pay her
own share of such expenses, subject, however, to a
subsequent arrangement. Bavaria demanded to be
recompensed for the concentration, at the demand of
the Empire, of troops on the Bier."

" I have just received news from Vich of the 25th. It

and the generals of brigade, Enrique and Manzano, en-
tered that city. This last had with him some Carlist
horsemen, among whom was Tristany. It was said
that there were 11 battalions i❑ the town. On the oth( r
hand General Concha, who had been detained by indis-
position at La Garriga, was to set out on the 25th for
the same place. I expect to have important news to
communicate to you soon—perhaps to-morrow."

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

Notwithstanding the state of siege, all the Vienna
journals, of every shade of politics, continue to de-
nounce in energetic terms the murder of Count Louis
BATTIIYANY.

The Oct Deutsche Post thus expresses itself :
" The execution of Count Batthyany is one of the
most enigmatical acts of our Government. What object
can there be now in these political executions in Hun-
gary? To inspire terror? The land is bowed down.
It will be long before Hungary can again raise the
standard of rebellion. And when will these judgments
end now that they ha►e commenced? Why hang one and
pardon the other? Klapka may be seen at the opera at
Pesth, and Georgey perambulates Klagenfurt; whilst on
the Hola-platz, in Pesth, their fellows dangle from the
gallows. Oh! it was a glorious turning point, the
mild and prudent capitulation of Comorn—the keys of
Hungary without one drop of blood being shed. The
bloody drama is over, men said; peaceful times are
coming, the day of reconciliation, a re-organisation of
the fabric of the State. When, lo! suddenly the curtain
rises and displays to view a sixth act, a terrible scene of
bloodshed. The European public will pronounce various
judgments upon it; we shall confine ourselves to the
simple question—wherefore this?"
The Constitutional Gazette quotes a saying of Fox,
" The worst revolution is restoration ;" and then adds
—" The sword is a good tool to uproot weeds, and
break the ground for the reception of new seed ; but
it is a bad utensil to rear and cultivate with. An eye
for an eye and a tooth for a tooth may once have been
allowed, but those are by-gone days !"
These horrible murders still continue. The Mi-
nister CSAIiYI and Baron CLESSENACK were hanged
at Pesth on the Sth. The feeling excited in Hun-
gary by these atrocities is one of deep despondency
and strong desire for vengeance. Austria can never
again count upon the assistance of Hungary in her
difficulties.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES

The National Gazette of Hamburgh, of the 12th,
states that a sanguinary collision had taken place on
the previous day, in the neighbourhood of that place,
between some Prussian hussars and the dragoons of
Schleswig-Holstein. The quarrel arose at a ball, and
sabres being drawn, many serious wounds were
received on both sides.
The elections for Denmark began at Copenhagen

BADEN.

The Carlsrhue Gazette of the 16th has the fol-
lowing :
" The Burgher Guard, which has continued to
take its turn in mounting guard at the Senate
House, yesterday received notice from the com-
mandant that their services would nn longer be re-
quired, as the regular garrison was now perfectly
organised.
" Last night the Court was present at the theatre,
for the first time since the disturbance. Prince FRE-
DERICK of Prussia was in the grand ducal box, by the
side of the Grand Duchess.
" General VON SCHEECKENSTIEN, Commander-in-
Chief of the Prussian corps d'arinee in Baden, and
General Vox WILLisoN, have arrived here.
" Though tranquillity is now perfectly restored,
and everything has the outward semblance of peace,
the court-martial still continues its sitting, and
several of the ringleaders and participators in the
revolution are tried and condemned by martial law.
The Prussian Regiment of Infantry at Worms is to
form part of the garrison of our city."

PRUSSIA.

Tile news of the execution of Count Louis Blithy-
any, by order of liaynau, ha I provoked an universal
feeling of grief and indignation in Berlin ; for the
Hungarian documents recently published at Frank-
fort indicate an agreement with the Archduke Pala-
tine, whereby Batthyany's offence—" the transgres-
sion of the administrative arrangements of Hungary,
as laid down by the laws of March, and the tampering
with the union secured by the Pragmatic Sanction"
—was at least excused ; the Palatine, at all events,
being exhibited in the light of a particeps criminia, or,
if not, a party equally guilty.

CLERkENWELL.

Yesterday William, alias Edward Barton, and
Henry Hanbury were placed at the bar before Mr.
final examination, charged with having
with others, in numerous robberies
Tbeyernwhitt concerned, for
greatest interest was manifested, and the court was
on the Great Western Railway
crowded to excess. Company, when the

Mr. Humphries attended for the prosecution, and
Mr. Pelham for the prisoners.
Messrs. Chaplin and Horne, and numerous gentle-
men connected with the company, were also in atten-
dance to listen to the proceedings.
Mr Humphries, addressing the Bench, said he felt
it to be his duty prior to the transcript of the evi-
dence which had already been taken being read over,
to state that the originaliparcels which had been stolen
were left, in a mysterious way, at the George and
Bull Inn, Holborn, and they were now in the posses-
sion of Messrs. Chaplin and Horne. He felt it also
to be a duty towards the public, but more especially
to that Court, to'state this at the outset of the pro-
ceedings.
Mr. Mallett, the chief clerk, then read over the
whcle of the evidence taken at the former exami-
nation.

Mr. Humphries now called Sergeant Smith, No.
50, E division, who on being questioned, said that the
witness Thomas Saunders gave him a description of
the nine parcels before produced, not only by word of
mouth but in writing; they were in a very dirty state
when he searched the lodging of Hanbury in Hart-
street, Covent-garden. He found it in a dreadful
state of filth and covered with vermin.
Thomas Saunders now added to his former testi-
mony, in reference to the date when he assisted the
prisoners to make up the parcels, that it was on the
same day that Mrs. Manning's apprehension for the
murder of Mr. O'Connor was; communicated by the
electric telegraph. Witness had seen the piece of
joined sealing-wax (now produced) at the prisoner
llanbury's lodgings; it was then in two pieces, and
Hanbury joined them together. This was on the
afternoon of the day on which they made up the
parcels. Witness believed that the parcels were
sealed with bottle wax, but the sealing-wax jointed
might have been used for the purpose. He identified
a piece of bottle-wax now produced by Smith the
officer.
William Davey, porter in the employ of Messrs.
Chaplin and Horne, proved having delivered parcels
on the 27th of September, when he saw George
Barton lurking about and evidently watching him.
Priscilla Nash, of 11, New-street, Brompton,
widow, knew Mr. and Mrs. Howell, of the Hand-in-
Hand public-house, Holborn, who employed her to
take care of their house while they were in the country.
She was there seven weeks, until their return home to
London. She had seen both the prisoners in the
house, and also Saunders, the witness, with them.
She had seen Barton's son there, and be left a cape of

THE ECLECTIC REVIEW.

The Eclectic for October opens with a paper which
we recommend to the serious attention of those
Protectionists who make such a parade of their
religion and of their love for the poor.
They surely cannot be aware that the restoration of
that protection for which they so loudly call
would be inevitably attended with anin-
crease in the number of our criminals, exactly
proportioned to the increase in the price of food occa-
sioned by the restoration of that protection ; but
here we have it proved, demonstrated mathe-
matically, that dear food means increase of crime,
and cheap food means decrease of crime ; that
whenever food is dear the inmates of our gaols
are increased in number, that whenever it
is cheap the number of our criminals
is decreased ; that protective duties, therefore, which
tend to raise the price of food are as
immoral as impolitic, and that an increase
In our criminal population is part of the
price we pay for the supposed benefits to be
derived from the existence of a territorial aristo-
cracy, always supposing, as the Protectionists contend,
that the re-impoAtion of import duties on articles of
food is necessary to its support. We hope that this
article will be reprinted in the form of a tract and
extensively circulated. It cannot but do much good
in Exposing thcsa Protectionist fallacies, which are
generally at this season of the year brought out for
ventilation at agricultural meetings. The following
extract will give our readers some idea of the admi-
rable manner in which the writer conducts his argu-
ment :

LITERATURE.
ALISON'S HISTORY OF EUROPE.

Illustrated Edition.
Our great English Reformer—Charles James Fox
—whose political principles were more akin with
those of the Radicals than with those of the Whigs
of our generation—is represented in the present
volume in an engraving taken by W. H. Egleton,
from the celebrated portrait by Sir Joshua Reynolds.
The embellishment is appropriate to the current por-
tion of Mr. Alison's History of Europe, seeing that
that portion is descriptive of the closing scenes of the
life of the illustrious orator and statesman. Apart
from his memorable eloquence, and the glorious libe-
rality of his views as to the gove.ninent of the United
Kingdom, Fox would always be entitled to remem-
brance and admiration as the friend at once of Eng-
land and of Napoleon. Had he, however, possessed
the courage to utter, as Minister of this country, the
noble words delivered before the House of Commons
in 1848 by Lord Palmerston—" What is it to Eng-
land whether France chooses to be governed by a
President, a Consul, a King, or an Emperor ?"—these
islands and the whole continent might have been saved
from a long and bloody war, the English people might
have been spared a vast portion of that national in-
cubus, the debt of 800,000,0001., and the great soldier
might have died in his Imperial Palace of the
Tuileries, leaving France powerful, happy, and pros-
perous. As it is, what has England or Europe
gained by the wars undertaken at the behest of the
Allied Sovereigns ? A series of tremendous revolu-
tions. While, in 1849, the representative of Na-
poleon's dynasty, in spite of all the wars, of all the
expenditure of blood and money, in spite of the exe-
crable cruelties perpetrated at St. Helena, presides
over the French nation—the ashes of the august
Dead reposing meanwhile "on the banks of the
Seine, in the midst of the people he loved so well !"
Behold the passive vengeance of that people. . .
The splendid Atlas accompanying this beautiful edi-
tion of "Alison" is, as a matter of course, continued
with due regularity. I •

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

Notwithstanding the state of siege, all the Vienna
journals, of every shade of politics, continue to de-
nounce in energetic terms the murder of Count Louis
BATTRYANY.

The Ost Deutsche Post thus expresses itself:—
" The execution of Count Batthyany is one of the
most enigmatical acts of our Government. What object
can there be now in these political executions in Hun-.
gory? To inspire terror? The land is bowed down.
It will be long before Hungary can again raise the
standard of rebellion. And when will these judgments
end now that they have commenced? Why hang one and
pardon the other? Klapka may be seen at the opera at
Perth, and Georgey perambulates Klagenfurt; whilst on
the Holz-platz, in Perth, their fellows dangle from the
gallows. Oh! it was a glorious turning point, the
mild and prudent capitulation of Comorn—the keys of
Hungary without one drop of blood being shed. The
bloody drama is over, men said; peaceful times are
coming, the day of reconciliation, a re-organisation of
the fabric of the State. When, lot suddenly the curtain
rises and displays to view a sixth act, a terrible scene of
bloodshed. The European public will pronounce various
judgments upon it; we shall confine ourselves to the
simple question—wherefore this?"
The Constitutional Gazette quotes a saying of Fox,
"The worst revolution is restoration ;" and then adds
—" The sword is a good tool to uproot weeds, and
break the ground for the reception of new seed; but
it is a bad utensil to rear and cultivate with. An eye
for an eye and a tooth for a tooth may once have been
allowed, but those are by-gone days 1"
These horrible murders still continue. The Mi-
nister CsAnYI and Baron CLESSENACK were banged
at Perth on the Bth. The feeling excited in Hun-
gary by these atrocities is one of deep despondency
and strong desire for vengeance. Austria can never
again count upon the assistance of Hungary in her
difficulties.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.

The National Gazette of Hamburgh, of the 12th,
states that a sanguinary, collision had taken place on
the previous day, in the neighbourhood of that place,
between some Prussian hussars and the dragoons of
Schleswig-Holstein. The quarrel arose at a ball, and
sabres being drawn, many serious wounds were
received on both sides.

The elections for Denmark began at Copenhagen
on the Bth.

HOLLAND.

THE HAGUE, OCT. IG.--Mr. DOMEIER CURVES
and Mr. VON LIWITERWELT have resigned into the
hands of the KING the mission with which they were
entrusted. Messrs. THOREECHE and NEDERMEYER

with full powers -to form a new Cabinet. This Ca-
binet will, it is said, be composed as follows :—Mr.
J. R. Thorbecke, Member of the Second Chamber,
Interior ; Nedermeyer von Rosenthal, Member of the
Second Chamber, Justice ; J. S. Gedricke, Councillor
of Legation at Paris, Foreign Affairs ; Sonsbeek,

•1 OVE is the leading feeling of the human
LA breast. Mere exalted than mere passion, it soars high above
every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice,
but more engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from
its influence, or can avoid its sway ; and business, pleasure, philo-
sophy, and divinity Itself become neglected under the enthralling
power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity
with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage.
When union does not take place, however, this passion, this
fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly
poison in the heart, which now darkens, as it before bright-
ened, all things upon earth. How is it that men, of most un-
ctangeahle habits, still change at the very altar, and after a life-
time spent in the fulfilment, of every engagement, snap the very con-
tract asunder which should be most binding to an honourable mind?
ft is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early
habits, or the results of secret disease, knows himself to be
disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has been
h_stituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment of important
ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be
beyond measure deplorable ! Loving and beloved, he entails the
most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon
himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of
natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of
unalloyed happiness. The subject is interesting, and deserves the
attention of all. These desirous of investigating it will find the
fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work entitled

SELF-PRESERVATION.
Illustrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology,
and diseases of the reproductive organs ; with practical observa-
ions on the secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from
solitary habits, excesses, or infection.

By SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D.,
Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of
Edinburgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary
Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c.
This treatise is the result of a long course of study in a peculiar and
much neglected branch of medical practice, and the author having ob-
tained the highest medical honours, is a guarantee for his profes-
sional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treat-
ment of these diseases.

AUSTRIA.

The Prince de Windischgratz, by decree of the:l9th
declares Presburg and the comitat in a state of siege.
He promises protection to the peaceable, and orders
that the turbulent, the seditious, or those who shall
attempt:to seduce the soldiers, shall be tried by court-
martial. He shuts up all clubs, dissolves the National
Guard, orders the citizens to give up their arms; for-
bids any communication with the Diet or the Com-
mittee of Safety, &c.
The draft of the Constitution presented by the com-
mittee in the sitting of the Austrian Constituent Diet
at ICremsier, on the 21st, is composed of 29 para-
graphs. It guarantees personal freedom, right of
property, and equality in the eye of the law. It
abolishes privileges, admits all citizens to all Govern-
ment employments, and declares that moo titles or
rewards can be conferred on any other ground than
personal merit. It guarantees unrestricted right of
petitioning, right of association without arms, freedom
of education, and equality of rights between the dif-
ferent nationalities.
