PRUSSIA.

After attending at the conference in Tceplitz, it
appears that the King of PRUSSIA also took part with
the Auf=trian EMPEROR and the King of SAXONY in
the subsequent conference holden at Pilnitz.
On the 11th, at Berlin, during the splendid review
on the plains called Hasen-haide, about two miles from
the capital, the KING was attended by Prince CHARLES
and his gallant son Prince CHARLES FREDERICK, the
young son of Prince ALBRECHT, and a numerous and
brilliant suite, at the head of whom was General
WRANGEL.

The QUEEN, Princess of PRUSSIA, Princess CHARLES,
and her fair daughter, accompanied by their ladies
and attendants, were on the ground, and added to the
beauty of the scene. The troops assembled consisted
of six regiments of cavalry (24 squadrons), three and
a half batteries (30 field•pieces), with 19 battalions
of infantry, of which 13, including Rifles, were of
the Guard, the remainder of the line, and the 9th and
14th mostly Pomeranians, and all square-built, power-
ful men, equal almost in every point to the Guards.
"the whole number present amounted to about 3,200
sabres and lances, and 12,000 infantry, with 30 field-
pieces—a flea-bite in Prussia, where masses of men
can be brought together with facility, and where at
this season there is ground sufficient to mancauvre
50,000 men.

SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
at Walsall on Tursday ; Mr. C. S. Forster occupied
the chair.

The report stated, on that part of the line between
Great Bridge and Bescot, the contractors are carrying
on the works with the greatest possible dispatch; and
they have every reason to expect, should the weather
continue favourable, that the portion of the railway
between Dudley and Bescot, which completes the
main line, will be open for traffic early in November
next. The directors are desirous to correct an erro-
neous impression that the whole of this company's
line of railway has been open for general traffic, in-
stead of 11 miles of line, which was the only portion
opened, and that for passengers merely (between the
towns of Walsall and Birmingham), until the month
of April last. This small length of line was worked
by the London and North-Western Company, in
conjunction with eight miles of their own line,
under au arrangement by which the last-named
company received (beyond their working ex-
penses) a mileage proportion of the net profit. This
arrangement terminated in the month of May last,
from which date a further section of this company's
line, namely, from Walsall to the Alrewas junction
of the Midland Railway (about 17 miles in length)
was brought into work fur passengers and parcels.
The directors have resolved to decline the publication
of any traffic statement until the whole line has been d

AUSTRIA

VIENNA, SEPT. 9.—Georgey, who arrived here
yesterday, from Cracow, with his wife, medical
attendant, and two imperial officers, has already set
out for Klagenfurt, the place of his future destina-
tion. Nothing certain is yet known as to the fate that
awaits the other Generals of his corps; according to
report, they still continue to be kept prisoners at
Arad.
His Majesty the Emperor, after his interview with
the King and Queen of Prussia, at Toplitz, set out
for Pillnitz, in compliance with the invitation of the
King and Queen of Saxony, in whose domestic circle
the Emperor will pass this day. His Majesty will
set out on his return, via Theresiamstadt, to morrow,
and will reach Vienna on the 11th.
Marshal Radetsky is expected here to-morrow.
Baron J. Rothschild has arrived here from Paris.
The grand opening of the railway from Cilli to Lay-
bath will take place on the 16th. Preparations on a
very extensive scale are in proo.ess in Gratz, Lay•
bath, and Trieste, for the reception of the Emperor.
The Siebenbarger Rote gives the following
paticulars respecting the movements of the
rebel fugitives in the Danubian provinces :
MM. Dembinski, Alessaros, i\lessleny (Kossuth's
brother•in law), and eighteen other rebels, chiefly
Poles, arrived at Surnul Szverino, from Orsova, on
14th of last month ; Moriz aid Nicolas Perczel, with
Vicscount Mackay, on the 16,h; Kosserth, the
Minister Vakovich, and Kosserth, Philological Secre-
tary, en the 18±; Fi cher, the Captain of the
National Guard, and Major Count Dembinski and his
wife on the 19th.

Great excitement has been caused by the discovery
of the pipets found upon the Po emissary
Czaplicke, who was arrested at Breslau on the 22d
of last month, and the contents of which have
been published by the Austrian Correspondence.
It relates to a conference which took place in Paris
between Prince Adam Czartoryski, Count Teleki,
Sz trvady, Pulzki, and Itieger. The main point is
the total annihilation of the house of Hapsburg, and
a federative union of the Austrian provinces with free
and independent Hungary.
TOPLITZ, SEPT. 7.—This morning, at half-past
ten, his Alajesy the King of Prussia and suite ar
rived here. About half-past eleven their Majesties
the King and Queen of Saxony arrived here, ac-
companied only by the Chamberlain, Von Mine-
klutz and General Reichardt. Both their Majesties
alighted at the Hotel des Postes.
Apartments have been prepared for the reception
of the Emperor of Austria, in the palace of Clary.
The National Guard have been drawn up on the
parade, and his arrival is momentarily expected.

FRANCE.

The Dix Decembre says—
" It is positively stated that M. do Lagrene3, member
of the National Assembly, is charged with an extraor-
dinary mission to Triast?, where he will be at the same
time as the Emperor of Austria and Prince Schvrartz-m-
-berg. This mission will only be temporary, in order not
to interfere with the position of M. de Lagrene© as
representative."
The Council of the Loire-Inferieure has passed the
following resolution :
" Sincerely devoted to the authority and to the liberty
of the Holy See, the Council-General of the Loire-
Inferieure had seen with much satisfaction the triumph
of our arms in the Eternal City, being persuaded that
the august Pius IX., who had never used that authority
or that liberty except for the happiness of his people and
the glory of Christianity, should continue free to pursue
his work without impediment or conditien9. Profoundly
ofilletcd at the idea that another course might be pur-
sued, the Council-General, as the faithful interpreter of
the religious sentiments of this department, expresses its
wish that the Government may pat an end to all uneasi-
fleas on this head as quickly as possible."

SUICIDE or THE LORD MAYOR'S BUT LE R.-Mr.
William Hudson, butler to Sir James Duke, committed
suicide on last Sunday morning by strangulation. He
bas been living some time at Glen Ogil, the country re-
sidence of Sir James, and had recently received a con-
cussion in the brain by a fall from a horse. He was found
in his bed-room with a napkin tied very tightly round
his neck, with one of the ends of it fastened to the bed-
post, and his body was lying in a reclining position upon
the floor. He had bis mouth filled with a cloth, appa-
rently to keep himself from crying. A post mortem ex-
amination of the body was made by the authorities.
Temporary insanity appears to have been the cause
which actuated him to commit the deed.—Dundee
Cour ler.

REMAINS OF ANCIENT LONDON.—Yesterday, in
the course of excavations for a sewer at the junction of
Farringdon-street and Holborn, a piece of brickwork
twelve feet in breadth, and upwards of twenty in depth,
cased with an outer wall of stone work, was discoverva.
It is believed to be part of the ancient boundary w4ll of
the city of London. Amongst the rubbish several
pieces
of iron, old spear heads, and coins were found,includ-
ing a groat of the reign of William the Conor.erer.

RUSSIA.

All the Hungarian flags recently taken by the
Russians will be forwarded to St. l'etersburgh.
The following account of the infamous ARTHUR
GxORGEY we translate from the Constitutionnel, and
place among the Russian intelligence, regarding such
communications as rather relating to Ru,sra
than to Hungary. It is a passage ex-
tracted from a letter dated Kaschan, the
Ist of September, and will be perused, we
doubt not, with melancholy curiosity by all those
who sympathise with us in our interest in everything
referring to the fatal deception practised on Hungary.
The writer speaks as follows :—" This day the
modern CINCINNATUS (!), after having abdicated the
sceptre of dictatorship (which he had held scarcely
forty-eight hours!) to return to his plough or his
homestead, passed through our town. lie is tall in
stature, of powerful proportions, and has a light-
coloured moustache. He wears spectacles, and has
his bead enveloptd in a capacious cap, which
covers a wound received in the vicinity of Cornorn
His person and his countenance are characterized by
energy and decision. Shortly after his arrival the
hotel into which be had retired was surrounded by a
crowd of curious observers. By his side at table
were his brother, his wife, and an Austrian Major.
Several Russian officers, by whom he is greatly loved.
pressed round the group to see him, and to cffcr hint
their compliments and felicitatioes. He appeared to
be in good spirits, and most amicably disposed to-
wards everybody. After dinner he started, with his
companions, to Georg, a village situated in the
district of Zipsa, and originally founded by his
family. After having arranged some private business
at this place he will hasten on to Graetz, where he
will fix his residence."

There let him remain henceforth in his infamous
obscurity.

TURKEY.

Intelligence from Sendin of the sth states that
the Russian General Lovenr has left Belgrade for
Turkey on the 3d, with the SULTAN'S firman, to effect
the arrest of KOSSUTH, DEanarNsm, and 190 other
marked persons.
England will look to Sir STRATFORD CANNING for
the safety of KOSSUTH—for his preservation from the
monsters who are now thirsting for his blood.

THE NORTHERN STATES.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

After all it appears from the Vienna journals of
the 9th instant that not only has Comorn seriously
resolved upon a resistance, but that General KLAPKA
—represented recently in some reports as incapaci-
tated from: illness, and in others as having hastened
to Dotis to deliver himself up to the Austrians—is
actually at this moment, and has been all along at
Comorn, carrying out at all hazard the orders of the
Council of War in that fortress. 'We state this fact
on the authority of the Journal des Debats of yes-
terday.
In a few days there will be held at Vienna impor-
tant conferences upon the affairs of the Hungarians,
in which conferences, under the Presidency of the
young EMPEROR, the following will take part :—All
the Ministers, with Generals RADETZKY, HAYNAU,
JELLACHICH, HESSE, and Baron GERINGER. General
DEmnirisices son, now under arrest during two
months, has not yet been liberated. From Cracow
we learn that lately the house of HOSGOWSKI, the
brother-in-law of General BEM, had been searched in
the vain hope of discovering some important docu-
ments.

On the sth instant the son of Prince PARIS
WITCH passed through Ratibor, on his way from
Warsaw to Vienna, carrying a chest of Austrian
colours lately taken from the Hungarians.
Intelligence via Agram states that the fortress of
Peterwardein surrendered on the sth inst., at four
o'clock in the afternoon. KISS, like a true patriot,
had adopted every possible means to prevail upon the
garrison to continue its defence.
The beseiging force around Comorn is estimated at
60,000. There is every prospect that they will have
to employ fire and sword before they can reduce the
courage of the_2o,ooo heroic Magyars under KLAPICA,
still holding out in that citadel of Hungarian pa-
triotism.
At Vienna it is rumoured at one moment that
FRANZ JosEru is about to espouse the Grand Duchess
HELENA of Russia, at another that be is already be-
trothed to the Princess ALEXANDRIA of Saxony.

THE CHOLERA.
THE JEIIISH FORM OF PRAYER.

A Form of Prayer was issued yesterday by the
Chief Rabbi, to be used in all the synagogues of the
united congregations in the British empire, on ac-
count of the mortality caused by the cholera. After
reading the penitential Psalms of David, the 22d,
91st, and 103 d, by the reader and congregation, the
following prayer is to be read :
" Lord Almighty ! gracious and full of compassion,
who has created the universe by thy wisdom. Thine
eyes are upon the earth from the beginning of the
year, even unto the end thereof. Thou formedst the

light and the darkness. Thou spreadest peace and
raiseth calamity. To Thee, 0 Lord, we approach
now, when our souls are overwhelmed by amazement
and affliction. Thou hast visited the inhabitants of
this country by sending forth among them
a • raging disease, a dreadful destruction, so
that every nerve trembles, every heart pal-
pitates thereat. Verily ! we know, 0 God,
Thy judgments are just, for no evil can issue
from Thee, the source of all goodness and
mercy ; but Thou chasteneth us for our sins, because
our iniquities and transgressions are heavy upon us,
and our hearts froward and perverse. We beseech
Thee, 0 Lord, to let our penitential prayers ascend
unto Thee like incense. In Thy mercy, attend not
to our wickedness, but cause us to return unto Thee
by a perfect repentance. Let Thy countenance shine
upon us Thy servants. Withdraw this plague from
our land. Be, as heretofore, our rock and our shelter,
and deliver not the beings of Thine hand unto this
destroying visitation. Be Thou, 0 Lord, at the
right hand of the physicians, enlighten their spirits
and guide their counsels, for Thou alone art the
merciful, the mighty healer. Father ! full of all grace,
heal the hearts which are broken—bind up the wounds
which are bleeding, soothe the souls which are
afflicted, and grant that we may turn even the afflic-
tions which befall us into a corrective to our souls.
Bless us, and bless our children. Pour out Thy
Divine Spirit upon all men, and restore unto us a
year of life and plenty—a year of peace and redemp-
tion. Amen."

FRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAINE.

On hearing of the interview between the Emperor
of AUSTRIA and the King of PRUSSIA at Tcep!itz and
at Pilnitz, the Archduke JOHN is said to have expressed
his great satisfaction, at the same time adding, that
he trusted they had now almost reached the turning
point of all their cares and anxieties.

PRUSSIA.

After attending at the conference in Toaplitz, it
appears that the King of Raussia also took part with
the Austrian EMPEROR and the King of SAXONY in
the subsequent conference holden at Pilnitz.

On the-11th, at Berlin, during the splendid review
on the plains called llasen-haide, about two miles from
the capital, the KING was attended by Prince CHARLES
and his gallant son Prince CHARLES FREDERICK, the
young son of Prince ALBRECHT, and a numerous and
brilliant suite, at the head of whom was General
WRANGEL.

The QUEEN, Princess of PRUSSIA, Princess CHARLES,
and her fair daughter, accompanied by their ladies
and attendants, were on the ground, and added to the
beauty of the scene. The troops assembled consisted
of six regiments of cavalry (24 squadrons), three and
a half batteries (30 field pieces), with 19 battalions
of infantry, of which 13, including Rifles, were of
the Guard, the remainder of the line, and the 9th and
14th mostly Pomeranians, and all square•built, power-
ful men, equal almost in every point to the Guards.
The whole number present amounted to about 3,200
sabres and lances, and 12,000 infantry, with 30 field-
pieces—a flea- bite in Prussia, where masses of men
can be brought together withl facility, and where at
this season there is ground sufficient to manoeuvre
50,000 men.

SIJN, NOVEMBER 30, ISIS,

The year 1849 is the jubilee of this most useful, most meritorious,
and most carefully compiled work of reference. It is now just half a
century since the " Post-office London Directory" first became a
candidate for public favour, and for many years it waged an unequal
war with other publications of a similar character. Fortunately,
however, for the public, it became, in 1836, the property of its pre-
sent proprietor, wile, with that energy and enterprise which, in
ninety-nine cases out of a hundred, commands succes, determined
to make it in reality what it was in name—a directory and guide to
the streets, the professions, and the trades of London—to make it a
mirror of the metropolis of the commercia world. To accomplish
this, neither pains ncr expense were spared ; the work was extended
to nearly double the usual size, accuracy was secured by establishing
a system of collecting information, and a system of checking and
comparing the results of the information thus collected. A map of
London was added; and thus the " Post-office London Directory,"
by the greater extent and greater accuracy of its, information, and by
the more lucid arrangement of Its contents, was enabled to drive
every rival Irons the Held.

THE TIMES, NOVEMBER 30, 1848.
The volume for the approaching year, 1849, being the 50th volume
f this publication, has just been published by Messrs. Kelly and Co.,
of Old Boswell-court. This volume contains all the matter which
enriched those of the present and preceding years, with all such im-
P-ovements as increased activity of research and careful investiga-
tion can supply. It ap;ears to be as accurate a compilation for the
offices, trades, occupations, and residences of thousands of persons
as the most minute inquiry and the most methodical arrangement
can furnish. Pei haps no book more effectually answQrs the purposes
for which it is intended titan this does. It is necessarily a balky
volume ; but its bulk, col.trary to the general rule, is an advantage,
and it may be said to contain no superfluous pages whatever. It is
Well printed, and well got up, and has a map of London prefixed to
it, which will be found useful. The proprietor has hid for many
years an arduous task in carrying out his object, but his labours have
'erminated in complete success. He has conferred a benefit on the
P"'",, and it is their duty, as well as their interest, to patronise his
Work.

NO. XVII.-SMITHERIES.

My Lords having taken into consideration the heavy
exp-nse incurred by the introduction of Naswyth's
steam hammer into the dockyards, and th,, impossi-
bility of producing the same amount of work from them
that is produced in private trade, unless the work-
ing hours are assimila•cd, the want of con-
tinuous labour in the dockyards causing a greater
consumption both of fuel and material, are pleased
to direct that, from the Ist day of April n, xt, the ten
hours' system, recently introduced at Devonport, shall
be adoptA in the smitheries o: all the dockyards, the
wages of the men being increased in the proportion of
2,719 to 3,130, that oeing the difference of the namber
of hours worked under the dockyaro system, and under
that now in force at Devonport. U. G. WARD.

and entered the house. After some difficulty they suc-
ceeded in entering the room in which the prisoners were,
when he t e rcei vt d the prosecutor lying on the floor,
quitA naked and covered with blood. He was speech
less, but pointed with his hand that the prisoners were
behind the door and under the bed. He seized Davies,
while another constable secured the others.
Police constable 67 L corroborated the last witness's
testimony, and added that be found the prosecutor's purse
on the stairs near the door. A sovereign was found on
Davies, who struggled hard to get away.
In answer to the charge, the prisoners denied stealing
the purse and money. They were drunk when they ar-
rived home, aed were exasperated at seeing a stranger
in the room.
They were committed for trial.

CEIPT AND ST.iWAGE OP TIMBER.

My L.irds have le irned with much regret that the
arrangements for the receipt and st,..w,ge of timber in
her Ariz.j sty's dockyards are generally of the Most nu
satisfactory character.
My Lords are aware that some excuse may be found
for 1,,,0 cestiy and slev, nI y practices brought under their
notice by the Com nittee of Itevisi )n, in tlr• great werks
that have been going on in many of the yards, end the
consequt nt derang, went of the ordinary lines tir commu-
nication. But tile very first duty or each superiiitend-
ent, now that the yards are about to be re:lt:wed to their
natural ata t, must be to select in ouch yard the largest
op4.n space that can be found, within a rea•onahle dis-
tance of the landing-place, and to set it apart txc:usively

for the receipt rapid survey of timber.
My Lords have clir_cA provision to be made in the
estimates of 1849 50, for opening a communication by
tramway and travellers, with the spots selected as the
future receiving ground at Portsmouth, Chatham. and
Woolwich, and It is their in-ention to provide all the
dock) ards with similar facilities, %lion satisfied with the
arrangetneyta made for taking advantage of them. Tee
superintendents, in conjunction with the mast' r ship-
wrights and cue timber inspectors, are to ..tibmit a gene-
ral plan for the mere economical management of timber,
to the Board of Admiralty, at the next inspection t f the
dockyards, when my Lords will investigate the subject
very strictly, as they see too much reason to suppo e
that a large proportion of the labour placed by the libe-
rality of Parliament at their dispt,sal, i ntw wa•ited
by the want of proper method. H. G. WARD.

BADEN.

Some disturbance took place on the 18th, at the
sitting of the Second Chamber of the Grand Duchy
of Baden. The President having ordered the tribunes
to be cleared, because the public had loudly applauded
M. Brentano, one of the deputies, at the moment
when he was speaking violently against Prince Win-
dischgratz and the Ban Jellachich, part of the pub-
lic refused to comply. It was necessary to have re-
course to the armed force. The sitting was then
brought to a close.

DUBLIN, SUNDAY EVENING.—The northern papers
report frfsh acts of incrndiarism. A stack of
oats, the produce of six acres, the property of Cap-
tain Garner, who resides within two miles of Belfast,
was consumed on Friday in the open day. It is sup-
posed that the deed was perpetrated by means of com-
bustibles thrown over the wall 'y a person who was
seen driving rapidly past the premises, at the time
the fire broke out, in a gig or tax-cart.
An investigation, by order of the Government, has
been held, to inquire into the circumstances con
netted with the late affray between the incendiaries
and the two girls Mlreagh; the inquiry was private
but it appears that there are some doubts whether the
whole thing was not a fabrication. Six, however, out
of the eleven magistrates, were satisfied of the truth-
fulness of the statement made by the M'Veaghs.
A Cork Repeal paper announces, that secret socie •
ties are extending themselves through that county,
they are composed chiefly of the humbler classes.
The paid guardians of the Athlone Unioi who
were appointed about a year ago are to be superseded,
the Commissioners having sent down an order
authorising the election of a Board of Guardians on
the 25th of March next. The change does not ap-
pear to have given satisfaction.

LONDON, MONDAY, JANUARY 29 1849,

Thri labours of the Financial Reform Association
are beginning already to produce beneficial results.
Die Government recognises the spirit of thrift with
Talich (according to the Lord Provost of Edinburgh)
the entire nation has been seized. They respect the
voice of public opinion, and measures of economy
and retrenchment are now seriously canvassed, and,
-wherever practicable, brought into operation, which
were wholly despised and disregarded for a long
sse-
ries or years, and under various Admini tra-
tions. The first fruits of the movement
may he discovered in the series of Minutes
that, have just been issued from the Bard
of Admiralty to the several dockyards, and the new
TrJgulations introduced intluced for the management
of those gigantic establishments. These Minutes
(26 in number) will be found in extenso in another
part lof our impression. Generally speaking they
are movements in the right direction. They are in-
tended to produce an improved system of economical
management, to remedy obvious defects, and to give
a. 'regular and uniform action to all the component
parts of the existing system ; "to satisfy Parliament
and the country that these great national establishments
are conducted with the same regard to economy—the
same honest desire to make promotion dependent on
merit, and the same scrupulous attention to those
ininu'e details of management upon which the loss or
gain of a manufacturing establishment depends, that
in all private enterprises have constituted the secret
of -success." These are undoubte,lly correct princi-
ples, perfectly unexceptionable in every respect. It
is less surprising that the light should at length have
fallen upon their Lordships, that, yielding to the in-
creasing pressure from without, they should so tardily,
and at the eleventh hour, have adopted those obvious
rules, without which a private firm would speedily
be involved in bankruptcy and ruin, than that a
proper system should so lone have been neglected ;
that the abuses which sprung up during the pro-
trseted rule of Lord MELVILLE, and which prevailed
during the short tenure of office of his late MAJESTY
as Lord High Admiral, should bare been continued
