TUESpAY EVENIN'a OCTOBER 18, 18,10.

assembled multitude of many thousands round a
gallows erected on the Holz Platz. A rumour
suddenly spread through the crowd that BATTHYANI
had attempted suicide in prison. It proved true ; but
either the hand of the unhappy man or his energy
failed him. Though he gave himself various
wounds he did not deprive himself of life ; he, how-
ever' escaped the rope. Twelve hours later, at night
fall, he was led out and shot. As yet it is a mystery
what influence prccured the substitution of poWder
and lead for the rope. Common report says that the
wounds in the Count's neck prevented the rope being
used. BATTIIYANT, however, walked, it seems, with
a firm step to the place of execution ; and, before he
fell, shouted in a clear voice, "Eljen a haza," or long
live my country ! A fearful silence pervaded the
multitude at this solemn moment. Some ladies, ap-
parently of the highest classes, endeavoured to steep
their handkerchiefs in the blood of the dead man,but
were driven back by the guards."
Another account says The Count appeared
very emaciated, and if possible paler than usual ; he
nevertheless walked with a firm step and calm coun-
tenance to the fatal spot. The soldiers employed were
Jiigers. The silent multitude were much moved. It
would appear that the substitution of powder and ball
was not a modification of the sentence, but a necessary
consequence of the wounds inflicted upon himself by
the Count."

Lloyd's says :—" The condemned was dressed in a
suit of full-dress black. Though evidently very weak,
he advanced without support to the place of execu-
tion ; there was a large assemblage of people on the
Homok. Having uttered a short prayer, the roll of
the drum was heard, a sharp volley, and all was over.
The crowd then separated.'

The Prrase, though reputed a Ministerial journal,
condemns the execution of Count BATTHYANI in
strong terms.
A letter from Vienna of the 10111, says—" You
must not chide your correspondent if his letter con-
tains nothing but accounts of executions. BAT-
THYANI'S only led the way; many others have fol-
lowed him to the scaffold. On representations being
made to HATNAU against these executions, he replied
by holding out the parchment which conferred un-
limited powers upon him. They style me,' he said,
a bloodhound, a tiger, a hyaena; I am ready to take
upon myself the responsibility of my acts.' So much
is he feared that the officials in Pesth trembled for
their lives because they bad not hanged BATTHYANI
at once, instead of postponing the execution for twelve
hours. HAvissu is said to have been greatly incensed
when he heard of the postponement."
The official Gazette of Pesth of the 7th publishes
the sentence as follows :
"Louis Count Battbyani, native of Presburg, aged
forty years, a Catholic, married, avowing in part, and
legally convicted of having, in his quality of Prime
Minister of Hungary, taken, executed, or caused to be
executed, measures greatly outstripping the administra-
tive limits of Hungary, as guaranteed by the laws of
March; of having weakened the legal bonds between
Hungary and the hereditary States of the Empire estab-
lished by the Pragmatic Sanction; of having created
dangers threatening violently to overthrow the constitu-
tion of the State; also of having, after having resigned
on the 3d of October of last year the post of Prime Mi-
nister, by joining the ranks of the insurgents, by making
a public appeal to armed resistance, by re-assembling
the Diet dissolved by his Majesty, fortified and main•
tained the cause of the revolution; has been for the
crime of high treason sentenced to the confiscation of
all his property, and to death by strangulation; and,
after confirmation and publication, that sentence was
carried out to-day.
" THE IMPERIAL AND ROYAL COUNCIL OF WAR.
" Pestb, Oct. 6, 1849."
We would direct the particular attention of our
readers to this official record of the sentence, as it
gives the lie to the abominable calumnies with which
the reactionary correspondents of the London re-
actionary newspapers have loaded the unfortunate
man, to the effect that he was particeps crirninis in the
death of LATOUR.
The Vienna Presse says, " The late Count Louis
BATTHYANI was descended from one of the most
ancient Hungarian families. Richly endowed by
fortune, and stamped by nature with all the marks
of chivalry, he was an aristocrat in the fullest sense
of the term. His political opinions were more anti-
Austrian than Radical. In many sessions of the
Presburgh Diet he shone as a leader of the Opposition
in the Upper Chamber. Though not conspicuous as
an orator, his speeches were always listened to with
interest, and carried weight with them on account
of the position he occupied. At the election for
the member for the Pesth county, in the autumn of
1847, the anti-March Government raised heaven
and earth to turn the scale in their own favour. The
Opposition had put up KOSSUTM, and they succeeded
in carrying him. It is supposed that next to Count
CASIMIR BATTHYANI (now at Widdin), his cousin
Count Louis contributed the most to the issue of this
election, so pregnant with disaster for Austria.
When the revolution broke out in Vienna, the
deceased was one of the deputation that obtained
the famous March concessions. When the EMPEROR
had taken from the Palatine Archduke STEPHEN
the almost unlimited power of executive, which
had been accorded him for a time, a monster de-
putation, headed by BATTIIYANI, came to Vienna,
for the avowed object of obtaining the royal
sanction to laws passed in the Diet of Buda-Pesth,
one of which was the celebrated Bill for the levying
of recruits and altering the credit of the country.
The sequel is known. in the last moment of external
peace between Austria and Hungary, in the first
moment of conflict for life and death, Count BAT-
THYANI resigned the Ministerial office, entered as a
common soldier in a Hussar regiment, and took no
part in the proceedings of the National Defence
Committee. On the arrival of Prince WINDISCH-
GRATZ at the head of his army in Pesth, a deputation,
consisting of Louis BATTHYANI, Archbish,p
LONOWICi, and DEAR, came to entreat him to spare
the town, and to enter upon negotiations for the
pacification of the country. He was arrested, and
has ever since remained in confinement."

THE NEW CENTRAL POWER.

CONVENTION BETWEEN PRUSSIA AND
____

AUSTRIA.

The following is a translation of the Convention
between Prussia and Austria, signed on the 30th
September at Vienna, and ratified by Prussia on the
10th October :
" Sec. 1. The Government of the German Confedera-
tion, in concert with the Administrator of the Empire.
agree upon an interim, during which Austria and
Prussia take upon themselves the exercise of the Cen-
tral Power fur the German Confederation, in the name
of all the Governments of the Confederation, until the
Ist May, 1850, for reason that this power cannot be
transferred to a definiti►e Power before that period.
" Sec. 2. The object of the interim is the maintenance
of the German Confederation, as of a union based upo❑
the right of nations, of the pri❑ces of Germany, and of
the free towns, for the conservation of the independence
and integrity of their States, comprised in the Confede-
ration, and for the maintenance of the internal and ex •
ternal freedom of Germany.
"Sec. 3. Pending the duration of the interim, the
affair of the German Constitution is left to the free con-
certation of the individual States.
" The same as regards to those matters which, accord-
ing to the sixth article of the Act of the Confederation,
appertain to the full assembly of the Diet.
"Sec. 4. Should, at the expiration of the interim, the
affair of the Get man Constitution not yet be settled, the
German Government will concert together for the pro-
longation of the present convention.
" Sec. 5. The affairs hitherto conducted by the Provi-
sional Central Power, insomuch as, according to the le-
gislation of the Confederation, they come within the
competency of the reduced council of the Assembly, are
made over, pending the duration of the interim, to a
commission of the Confederation (Bundes-commnis•sion)
for which Prussia and Austria will each appoint two
members, to hold their deliberations at Frankfurt. The
other Governments may have themselves represented
by Plenopotentiaries to the Commission of the Con-
feration, each State individually, or more States con-
jointly.
" See. 6. The Commission of the Confederation
conducts its affairs in art independent manner, under
i:s responsibility towards its committees. It takes
its resolutions after deliberation in common. If
its members cannot come to an agreement, the
decision is to be made by a negotiation between
the Governments of Prussia sad Austria, who,
should the case requite it, will submit the question in
point to the arbitration of three Governments of the
Confederation. In such case, Austria will appoint one,
and Prussia another Government. The two Govern-
ments thus selected to appoint the third to form the
court of arbitration. The members of the commission
of the Confederation divide the affairs assigned to them
in this sense, that according to tho legislation of the
existing Confederation, and especially according to the
military constitution of the Confederation, they conduct
them themselves, or direct and superintend the manage-
ment of them.
" Sec. 7. As soon as the consent of the Govern-
ment shall have been given to the present proposition,
the Archduke Administrator shall resign his high office,
and place all the rights and privileges of the Confedera-
tion intrusted to his taro in tho hands of his Majesty
the Emperor of Austria, and of his Majesty the King of
Prussia."
The Frankfort Journal announces that the Arch-
duke Vicar of the Empire has adhered to the
treaty between Austria and Prussia on the German
question.

PRUSSIA.
General RAUCH is about to start from Berlin to
St. Petersburgh on a mission to the CzAR. He is,
it is said, charged to offer the mediation of Prussia
between Russia and Turkey.

SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN.
The Government Commissioners have just pub-
lished an ordonnance, dated the 4th, commanding each
member of the magistracy of Eskeronforde to receive
ten Prussian soldiers, who shall be billeted in their
houses until such time as the magistrates shall have
consented to publish the ordonnance of the Government
Commission which abolishes the fundamental law of
the state.

Very aciive communication is being carried on
between the Government Commissioners and the
Cabinet at Berlin. General VON BorcaN immediately
on his return from his mission to Berlin had a con-
ference with the Commissioners, which lasted several
hours. This mission chiefly had reference to the
position of the Prussian officers in the Scleswig-
Holstein army. It has been determined that no ob-
stacle whatever shall be opposed to their remaining in
that army, but as soon as the differences now sub-
sisting between the Government Commissioners and
the local administrations shall have been settled, a
distinct ordonnance will be published by Prussia,
according to which the officers have the permission
of their Government either to remain in the Schles-
wig-Holstein army, or to re-enter the service of
Prussia.

111* VON HANNON, also the chief of the depart-
ment for Foreign Affairs, is gone to Berlin, and
unless appearances are altogether deceptive, there
will speedily be a perfect understanding between the
Commissioners and the Prussian Government, and
consequently, also, with the local Government, a
consummation which is most heartily to be desired.

A body of Danish troops embarked at Copenhagen
on the 6th for Olsen. This is merely a precautionary
measure called for by present circumstances. It was
reported at Hensburg on the 10th that the Danes had
thrown two pontoons across the river from Sonder-
burg to the Sandewitt. We have not been able to
ascertain the truth of this.

lIAMBURGH, OCT. 12.—The rew press-law, which
on the 4th was posted at all the corners of the
Streets, came into operation on the 10th.—German
Papers.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was in a
very excited state, and compared with last week's rates,
quotations of American and Surat were ad., and Brazil
id. per lb. dearer. The sales were estimated at 25,000
bales, including 5,000 American, 2,000 Brazil, 500 Egyp-
tian, and 4,000 Surat taken on speculation. The trans-
actions comprised 15,000 American, 3,500 Brazil, at 6d.;
1,200 Egyptian, at 6id. to 74d.; and 5,000 Surat, at
4id. to sd. per lb.—There was a dull and heavy market
for Railway Shares, and prices generally continued to
decline.

The accounts from the Continent state thattn most of
the stock markets business was tolerable active. At
Amsterdam there was not much doing, except in Portu-
guese Stock. Dutch Two-and-a-Hal; per Cents. were
53k. The Frankfort market on the 13th instant was
better for Austrian Stock, viz., 89i, and in the Vienna
Bourse on the 11th inst. prices were heavy at the com-
mencemont, but firmer afterwards.
There are no later ship arrivals from the colonies or
other distant parts.

The publica.tion by the North-Western Railway Com-
pany of the ameunt of transfers effected during the
nine months ended the 30th Sept. last, and to the like
date of 1848, serves to confirm what indeed has for some
time past been apparent, via., that they are far smaller
than many would suppose, and that time bargains exceed
them ten, aye, perhaps twentyfold. The statement
before us shows that with an additional two millions of
capital paid up, making over 17 millions now, the trans-
iers have not amounted to half a million sterling, and
that they are less than they were last year. It
❑ow behoves the other companies to make the
like returns, and a check may then possibly be
put upon the Bearing system, although we much fear
that nothing will prove effectual, so far, but an increase
of traffic or fares. There is an apparent settled disincli-
nation to buy for investment, and, until this is removed,
the market cannot assume the least buoyancy,
or, at any rate, any permanent stability.
We have so many unfortunate examples of
railway embarrassment, some of them, we hope, tempo-
rary, that we cannot feel surprised at the general mis-
trust prevailing. The Caledonian Company not having
paid any dividend on the ordinary shares has fixed nu
date for the liquidation of the interest guaranteed upon
the Clydesdale Junction, although it was due
on the 15th of August last, and warrants,
in the ordinary course, should have been
issued a month afterwards. It appears that it is
discretionary with the company when they pay, but
what are we to say of railway investments when such
uncertainties arise where least expect( d?
The Great Northern Railway Company recently

issued the following notice:—" The Scrip 'Certificates
for the 12-1/. Five per Cent. Preference Shares of 7th
June, 1849, will not be ready to issue until the 12th
October, when those parties who have paid up the full
amount of the shares can receive them in exchange for
the banker's receipts."
From inquiry at the office, it appears unlikely that
the scrip can be issued before Thursday next.
The head direction of the Dutch Rhenish Railway
announces to the shareholders—lst. That the advertise-
ment of the 31 September, addressed to those who had
at that period not paid the sixth call of 10s. per share
(making 8/. per share paid) is withdrawn and cancelled.
2dly. That the very latest period for the payment of
that call, which, according to an advertisement dated
the 19th July, was fixed for the 24th of August, is now
extend to the 20th November next.
The English Stock Market has been rather fluctuating,
the intelligence from Paris of the asserted compli-
cation in the Ministry having led to a slight reac-
tion. Consols have been 921 and are now 921 seller©.
To-morrow being account-day has the usual influence

on prices. Exchequer-bills are 445. to 465., and India
Bonds 81s. to 845. premium. The New Three-and-a-
Quarter per Cents. are 921 to I.

In the Foreig❑ Investnientsthere is a fair business
doing. Mexican Bonds have touched 27 and 27i,

owing to the official information of the further
amount likely to be received for the dividends, viz.,
80,000 dollars by the packet after the next due here.
Peruvian Bonds are 53i Portuguese Four per Cents.
have been 331, and Spanish Three per Cents. 33i.
Dutch Four per Cents. are 82i.
Railway Shares, although heavy, are not quite so
unsteady.
