TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sin,—ln your report of yesterday's proceedings at the
Southwark Police Court, in your paper of this evening,
you state that the accused, Charles Hunt, was a town
traveller in our employ. Such was not the case, he was
a workman occupied exclusively on these premises; and
as we have a Mr. Richard Hunt holding the situation of
town traveller in our house, a gentleman who merits
and enjoys our entire confidence, we request you will
insert this in your next number, and correct an error
which might prove unpleasant, and would be most un-
just, if not corrected, to an honourable man.
We remain, Sir, your most obedient servants,
GEO. HART and SON.

Madrid journals of the sth have arrived.
During the sitting of the Cortes on the previous
day, in reply to an interpellation by the deputy
COLONGE, the Minister of the Interior and of War
stated that the news from Catalonia was important
and satisfactory. The rebel chief SARRAGATAL and
three others had returned to France, and their columns
had made their submission. There were no more
chiefs left there except the brothers TRISTAN; who
were hotly pursued by the QUEEN'S troops.

EXTRA PAROCHIAL PAUPERS.

Viscount HEREFORD then rose to ask the question
of which he had given notice on the subject of .be
deficiency of the means adopted for affording relief to
extra parochial paupers. He wished to know wbeil ler
it was the intention of the Government to introducer ny
measure on this subject.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE, who replied to the
question, was so completely inaudible in the gall( try,
that not a syllable of his answer could be caught.

GERMANY

AND

THE NORTHERN STATES.

SAXONY.

The evening edition of the German I?eforme, of
Berlin, contains the following, which is the latest in-
telligence from Dresden :
" About the half of the Alstadt (cccupied by the rebels)
is in the hands of the troops. Dispositions are made
not to attack the Altmarkt and Schloss-street, all for-
midably barricaded in front, but to move round and en-
close them with a continually advancing wall of troops.
For this purpose, the artillery is kept playing upon the
barricades and contiguous houses, whilst the wings ad-
vance. The right wing mastered the port-house last
evening, the left was pushing on to the Flcischschanen
(butcher market). The result is not doubtful. The
whole of the Altstadt is probably at this time in
possession of the troops. It is doubtful whether,
but unlikely, that a combat will take place in the
suburbs of the Altstadt with rho Ccmmunal Guard
assembled there, who have hitherto conducted
thernselve; rather tranquilly. At all events, the greater
part of the fugitives will fall into the hands of the 3d
Saxon cavalry, which has surrounded the southern side.
Prussi,in troops are on the march, not only from GOrlitz,
but the third Prussian hussars, with fuur field pieces,
are moving on Dresden with the utmost speed, and will
be there tomorrow morning (Wednesday the 9th). Ten
prisoners have been taken, and the loss of the insurgents
is not known. On the other hand, the Alexander Guard
battalion has only lost one officer (Lieutenant de
Liebehen) and one fusileer killed, one non com-
missioned officer and two privates slightly wounded.
It is stated that of the rebel triumvir Tzschirner alone
met. through remains at the head of the so called Provisional Govern-
ment ; his two colleagues have concealed themselves or
fled. Aco,rding to the latest accounts the troops were
steadily and surely pressing forward, but not with undue
precipitation. The object is to triumph with the least
risk of life, and the greater certainty of ultimate suc-
cess. The defence is obstinate, and each house re-
quires to be stormed. The separation walls are con-
sequently and a passage thus effected

PItUSSIA.

-- -
Accounts from Berlin of the Bth state that an in-
surrection bad broken out at Breslau on the 6th. On
the 7th the troops and the people were fighting in the
city. It was also rumoured that an insurrection had
broken out at Coblentz.

AUSTRIA, HUNGARY, AND
RUSSIA.
The Emperor of RussrA was expected to join the
Emperor of AUSTRIA at Schonnbrunn on the 7th.
It is said that the Cabinets of London and Paris
have resolved to prevent the intervention of Russia
in the affairs of Hungary. It appears that the
Cabinet of Great Britain (in conjunction with that
of France) has addressed a note 'to the Cabinet of
St. Petersburgh, stating that it could not approve of
the intervention of Russia in the Austriaco Hungary
affair, nor on the question of German unity ; that
the power of Russia, united with that of Austria,
threatened to destroy the equilibrium of Europe ;
and that as England herself did not intend to inter-
fere, so she would not suffer Russia to do so.
The Hungarians are rapidly approaching Vienna ;
their watchfires can be seen from the towers of St.
Stephen. A heavy cannonade was heard on the sth
in the direction of Presburgh, and shortly afterwards
several fugitive soldiers arrived in Vienna announcing
the defeat of the Imperialists. During the whole of
the following day carriages loaded with the wounded
were continually arriving.
London, England, 1849-05-11

FRANKFORT.

The German Parliament, on the 7th, after a stormy
debate, rejected the proposition for the appointment
of a Commander-in. Chief.

MOLDAVIA AND WALLACHIA.
A letter of the 25th contains the following:—
"In consequence of the concentration of a Russian
corps near Odessa, and some movement of the fleet of
Sebastopol, the Porte has resolved upon arming the Bos-
phorus with several heavy guns of large calibre. General
Luders ordered to be shot at Bucharest Capt. Lipinski,
in consequence of an intercepted letter to General Bem,
in which he said that he hoped the Russian corps of
Wallachia would be sent into Hungary, for there were
5,000 ready to go over to the Hungarians."

TURKEY.
Dispatches have been received from the French
embassy at Constantinople, announcing the .complete
failure of General GRAMM to induce the Turkish
Government to consent to a private treaty. It is said
that one of the main causes of failure was the receipt
of Lord PALMERSTON'S communication to the House
of Commons, of certain assurances given by Baron
BRUNNOW, and which being completely at variance
with the demands of the Russian Envoy, exposed the
false return of his mission. The manner in which
Sir STRATFORD CANNING employed the communica-
tion in question served to overthrow the artfully de-
vised schemes of the Muscovite diplomatist.

HER IVIAJt.STY'S THLATRE.

Jenny L nd talk her leave of the stage I.ist et e(,irg,
in the s~ char% tee in which st.e wade her deidt
yests since, in thiit of Alice in Roberto 11 Dileolo. Not
• ven in the heyday of the public excitement ,o see
Jenny Lied do we remember a mere strikit.g no than
the Opera House presented las- niOit. To s4y that the
place was crowded is inathquately to desciibe the suit;)-
eating density of the mass who filled the pit and galle-
ries; and in the reserved p6rtions of the theatre—the
boxes and stalls—every availabh nook And cranny was
tilled. Her Majesty, Prince Albert, the Duchess of
Kent, were present, and all the rank and fashion of
London seemed to be collected there to pay the
last tribute of respect to Lind, on her secession (let
us hope, not final) from the lyric stage. It had been
difficult to persuade the public that she was really deter-
mined to leave ; but, when the ()filch' announcement
seemed to place the fact beyond all present doubt, the
general rush to witness her last performance produced a
concourse in the theatre, and communicated an enthu-
siasm to the vast audience such as we do not remember
to have witnessed on any similar occasion. The burst
of cheering and the general up-rising of the vast crowd
bespoke an unanimity of feeling and an enthusiasm such
as no performer within the range of living experience,
at least on the lyric stage, has been able to excite.
On such an occasion we cannot criticise the Ferform-
eine ; we have too deep a sense of the irreparable loss
which the lyric drama has suffered by the secession of
Jenny Lind to become critical. Be it therefore our
saii:usk to record the parting scene between Jenny Lind
and the public at the fall of the curtain. Boxes, pit,
galleries, rose as with one mind and purpose; and in a
few moments Lind came forward, led by Gardoni, to
receive new tributes of applause.. She was visibly affected,
yet shrunk from all open expression of her feelings, and
bowed reverently to that public by whom she
had been so long and so affectionately cherished.
Scarcely had she retired, when another storm arose,
more lend acd peremptory than the first ; and again
the fair singer appeared, led on by Belletti. The same
warm and enthusiastic applause was renewed; and the
bouquets fell in showers. A third time the call was
made; and now Jenny Lind came on alone, trembling
with suppressed emotion, bowing lowly, meekly, and
reverently, and looking the farewell which custom de-
nied her the opportunity of speaking. This time the
enthusiasm was so great, so prolonged, so entirely be-
yond even the greetings to which she [has been accus-
tomed, that her feelings became too strong to be re-
pressed, r.nd her emotion found vent and her gratitude.,
expression, in tears. Such was the scene of leave-taking
last evening. Notwithstanding all that has passed we
can but indulge the hope that the leave-takits is not
indeed final, but that Jenny Lind may be induced again,
at no distant le nod, to resume the throne which she has
uuntcessarily abdicated.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

Mr. OSBORNE seeing the Noble Lord the Secretary
for Foreign :Affairs in his place, = wished to ask him
if Government had received any information of the ad-
vance of the Russian army into the independent kingdom
of Hungary.—(Laughter.) He repeated the free and
independent kingdom of I.lungary.—(Laughter.) Very
likely Hon. Gentlemen who laughed were not conversant
with the history of Hungary.—(Laughter.) Secondly,
was there any treaty in existence by which this country
was bound to resist the entrance of Russian troops into
Hungary; and lastly, whether Ministers had any wish
or intention of mediating between the Emperor of Aus-
tria and the free people of Hungary.—(Laughter.)
Lord PALMERSTON, in reply to the first question,
said he had received information to day from Vienna,
that an application for military assistance in the war be-
tween Austria and Hungary bad been made by Austria
to the Russian Government, and that that application
had been assented to, and was going to be complied with.
He could assure his Hon. Friend that no treaties had as
yet been entered into with regard to Hungary. With re-
spect to the second question there was no difficulty, and he
could freely assure the lion. Gentleman that no treaties
had been entered into which had reference to the
security of Hungarian independence. With regard to
the third question he could reply that there had been
no application to this country for a mediation between
Hungary and Austria.—(Laughter.)
THE ROMAN STATES.
Mr. B. COCHRANE wished to know whether there
was any communication in the Foreign-office relative to
the invasion of the Roman territory by the French
troops, and he might add to the inquiry the question,
whether there was any intention on the part of her Ma-
jesty's Government to mediate between the French and
the Roman people.

LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP.

" To return to the grated windows of these dwellings
—should you have occasion after nightfall to tra-
verse the dimly-lighted streets, you will not go
far without passing a figure muffled in an
ample cloak, and with the sombrero slouched
over the eyes, leaning against the iron bars. As you
pass your ears convince you that it is conversing in a
low voice with some one within, whom the darkness
shrouds from observation. In all probability you will
take no further note of the whispering pair ; but if you
be more curious than wise, and bestow on • them more
than a passing look, another becloaked figure will proba-
bly step out from some corner, and politely request you to
retrain from interfering with other people's business. If
this hint be not sufficient, he will prepare to enforce it
by other means, and by displaying his navaja, threaten
to appeal to arms. He is engaged in one of the most
sacred duties of Spanish friendship. To guard from
danger or discovery—or, as it is termed, guarder les
espalades'—' to guard the back' of a friend who may be
playing the lover—is an affair to be undertaken only by
a tried comrade, whose devotion and courage may be
proof against the rude trials to which such a position
subjects him."

CHINA.

(From the Overland Friend of China of September 28.)
Last monthly paper contained a lengthened account
of the murder of the Governor of Macao by the
Chinese on the 22d of August, the consequent excite-
ment among the Portuguese, and the position of the
colony when the overland dispatches were closed.
We mentioned that on hearing of the atrocity her
Majesty's ship Amazon and her Majesty's steamer
Medea went over at once, in order to restore confidence
by their appearance ; two American and one French
men-of•war have been there for the same pur-
pose. Since the Portuguese soldiers captured a
small Chinese fort outside the Barrier, three days
after the murder, there have been no acts of hostility
on either side ; the number of Chinese killed and
wounded on that occasion was net far from 70 ; in
Canton exaggeration has swollen the number to over
100. The Chinese within the walls of Macao are quiet—
there has been neither riot nor plunder, and the pre-
sence in the town of marines belonging to the French
and American ships of war will have an excellent
effect. The French , Minister to China resides in
Macao ; and the American Government occupies naval
stores there for the supply of the squadron in the
East. At these places, respectively there is a French
and an American marine guard.

The Chinesp Commissioner's reply to the dispatch
from the Macoa Government informing him of the
crime that had been committed, is marked by the
cool insolence of its tone. It is said that the answer
sent to Mr. Benham's communication was much in
the same strain. The Macao Government an-
swered seriously, but it had little if any effect.
About the 29th, Government received another
communication (we rather think not written by
Seu himself) offering to deliver up the head
and hand of the late Governor, and also a head
said to be that of one of the murderers, provided the
Portuguese would release the three Chinese soldiers
captui c.-1 at the barrier gate on the 25th ultimo.
To this the Portuguese could nut consent, much
value being put on the evidence of the soldier•.
It is said they were on guard when the
murder was committed, witnessed the whole affair,
and feasted in the guard-house with the murderers, the
head and hand being there until near midnight, when
they embarked for Canton. They reached Can-
ton the following evening when there was much re-
joicing within the city. At Whampoa, in sight of
the foreign shipping, there was a public procession a
few days later. Many Chinese soldiers were present
carrying with them the figure of a European on
horseback, which they placed in the temple of one
of their idols. Rumours are current of rewards and
even rank having been conferred on the murderers ;
but of this foreigners have no certain knowledge.
The authorities at Macao will spare no exertion ,

ROLLS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

BLENILINSOPP P. BLENHINSOPP.
The Court was again occupied the whole day
led
ip
ing the arguments in this case. The suit was
by Mrs. Harriett Leaton Blenkinsopp against her 110
band, George Thomas Leaton Blenkinsopp, to set
a deed executed by the defendant in September, 1,1.14
to defeat a decree for alimony, which had been obtsic
against him by the plaintiff, who in 1842 obtaiord
decree for a divorce from the defendant, on the group'
of adultery and cruelty. The deed in question purportii
to convey all the defendant's estates to trustees for qv.
benefit of his creditors; but it was alleged by the PTA
tiff that the deed was collusive and fraudulent as BO

her.

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 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.
he following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan-
tages which the judicious application of a small saving can secure
through this Society.

SWITZERLAND.

The Federal Assembly of Switzerland, on the 15th,
discussed the Bill on military organization. Article
1, enacting that every Swiss shall be bound to do
military service, was adopted without discussion ; but
article 2, which fixes the age at which a man is liable
to, serve led to a long debate, and it was resolved that
from 17 to 50 every Swiss can be called into military
service.

The Wiener Zeitung has letters from Widdin of
the 4th instant, stating that the Hungarian and Polish
refugees have been transported from Widdin to

leadership of the ex-General BEM, now MURAT

VAT. On the 31st of October another transport
of 102 Italians took the road to Shumla. 16Z rene-
gades, commanded by General STEIN, now FEHRAD
PASHA, and KMETTI, 110 W KIAMIL ASHA, followed

yars left their first place of refuge and cap-
tivity on Ottoman soil. They mustered to the strength
of 320 men, and were led by M. KOSSUTH in person,
and by M. BALOGH. Count KASIMIR BATTHYANY,

THE RICHMOND THEATRE.

On Monday evening the entertainments at this
pretty little theatre were for the benefit of the spirited
les3ec Mr. J. Ryan ; the pieces selected for the
occasion being the popular comedy of Paul Pry, a
new ballet entitled La Reine dzc Bal, and the well-
known burlesque burletta of Othello Travestie ! ! In
the first piece, Miss Jane Coleman, late of the
Lyceum Theatre, made her first and only appearance
at the Richmond theatre, on the occasion of the
le!s( e's benefit. Her reception by the audience on

her first appearance was at once highly complimen-
tary and flattering in the extreme. We never saw
this young actress acquit herself better than she did
on Monday night. There was a vivacity and
espieglerie about her acting which was quite de-
lighttul. Her conception of her part was truthful
and correct, and during the whole of the comedy she
was very warmly appl,uded. Of Mr. W. B. Ryan's
Paul Pry we must speak in terms of praise ; he is a
very improving actor. Mr. Payne, as Harry Stanley,
and Mr. Pelham, as Frank Hardy, were each excellent
in their respective parts. We next had the ballet—
a very pretty one—in which Miss Desborougb, Miss
R. Ryan, and Master Waite appeared. Mr. J. W.
Sharpe, the comic vocalist, then gave " The Life of
an Actor, with imitations," and Master Sloman " The
Bay of Biscay" in very good style. The burlesque
of Othello brought to a conclusion the entertainments
of one of the most successful nights of the season.
The house was crowded previous to the rising of the
curtain.
London, England, 1849-11-21

ANOVELTY for the approaching season is in
preparation to which a distinguishing name has not yet been
given, but which the inventors, Messrs. NICOLL, can recommend
as one-of the most useful, warm, comfortable, and graceful articles
of gentlemanly attire ever produced. Specimens can be seen at 114,
116, and 120, Regent:street, and 22, Cornhill, as also THE TREBLE
Garment, or PALETOT, called THE NICOLL, which retains all the
characteristics of the famed Paletot (registered 6 and 7 Vic., cap. 65)
In its exterior, and has the additional advantages of being convertible
from a warm to a light Overcoat, or vice versa, at the pleasure of
tke wearer, or as the mild or cold nature of the weather may re-
quire. This garment must be seen and worn to be properly appre-
ciated ; it will be found, perhaps, the best preservative of health in
this variable climate. THE NICOLL has been secured by Royal
Letters Patent in ENGLAND, IRELAND, SCOTLAND, and the
COLONIES ; it can, therefore, only be purchased in the country, or
abroad, of Messrs NICOLL'S (the patentees) recognised A.GENTA,
and in LONDON only of themselves, viz., at 114, 116, 120,
REGENT-STREET, and 22, CORNIIILL.
