TUE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the French papers (if Saturday
and yesterday.
The debate on the Roman question ;'¢Y3S con-
tinued on Friday, and the report - the dis-
cussion up to the conclusion of the speech of
M. VICTOR HUGO appeared in the Third Edition
of The Sun of Saturday. He was replied to
by the great Jesuit orator, M. DE MONTALEMBERT,
who commenced his speech by a gross insult, which
roused the indignation of every member of the As-
sembly, except those belonging to the parti-pretre, and
for which even M. DUPIN felt himself compelled to
call the most Christian and religious orator to order.
This incident was also reported in the Third Edition
of The Sun of Saturday. M. MONTALEMBERT then
proceeded in the most enthusiastic strain to justify
not only the present POPE, but all his predecessors,
even the BORGIAS. The following short extract
from his speech will show the lengths to which M.
DE MONTALEMBERT and the obscurantists are pre-
pared to go in their support of sacerdotal mis-
government :
" Where are the executioners and the tortures he talks
of under the reign of Pius IL, or even under his pre-
decessors?

" A Voice—History will tell you.
" M. de Montalembert—Yes, and history will prove
that for a long time past there has not been a single
Pope' who was tyrannical and oppressive—

he is obliged to pardon.
"A Voice on the Left—Yes, when he is paid for it.—
(Murmurs.)
" M. de Montalembert—That is why, in the amnesty
which you so insultingly designate, as a proscription, he
is compelled to make exceptions. '
It would appear that M. DE MONTALEMBERT never
heard of the execution of the unfortunate Uao BASSI, it
would appear that he has never heard of the arrest of
Dr. Acainni, and of hundreds of others, and of their
transference to the dungeons of the Inquisition, of
that prison which, when examined at the suppression
of the Inquisition by the Roman Republic, was found
to have in its passages a series of trap doors, through
which unfortunate persons fell a great depth into the
dungeons below' in which dungeons, when examined,
were found not only human bones, but human
bodies in various stages of decomposition, a proof that
the murders which had been there committed must
have been some of them at least of recent
date. Even the acts of HAYNAU, albiet admitted
by M. DE MONTALEMBERT to be detestable and de-
plorable, are justified as acts of reprisal. "As to
the massacres in Hungary," says the Jesuit orator,
" if what the journals say be true, I condemn them,
detest them, deplore them ; and I add, that after all
they are but acts of reprisal."—(Movement.) The
pious and most Christian vindicator of acts of reprisal
does not condescend to particulars ; he does not ven-
ture to state for what crimes these acts of
HAYNAU are acts of reprisal, although the Re-
publicans and Orleanists also French may learn
the fate that is in store for them should the
parti-pretre ever get into power.. M. DE MONTA-
LEMBERT will, no doubt, be severely reprimanded by
the Jesuit fathers for the incautious candour with
which he has broached this doctrine of reprisal. This
speech was received with frantic enthusiasm by the
members of the parti pretre, and by the abbes, priests,
and women who occupied the galleries. M. VICTOR
HUGO rose to explain, but the members of the parti-
pretre, both those in the Assembly and those in the
gallery, drowned his voice by their interruptions, and
the debate was adjourned. It was resumed on Satur-
day by M. VICTOR HUGO, who having explained, was
followed by M. EMMANUEL ARAGO, who condemned
the policy of the expedition in toto with regard to
the expulsion of foreigners from Rome. M. Em-
manuel Arago having retorted energetically on,M. de
Montalembert,contended that the French installed in
Rome a greater number of foreigners than they had
expelled. Cardinal Lambruschini, for instance was
not a Roman ; he was born at Genoa. Out of the
57 cardinals who composed the Sacred College, only
30 were natives of the Roman states. Considerable
laughter was produced by this palpable bit, after
which M. E. Arago proceeded to stigmatise the
conduct of those Ministers of the French Re-
public who had presided at the restoration
of the absolute 'government of priests at Rome
as an act of treason.

M. ODILON BARROT then rose and said, that
he could not allow the discussion to close
without specifying the nature of the vote the
Cabinet claimed from the Assembly. He demanded
a reasonable and enlightened adhesion. The Roman
question was now known. Enough had been said on
the subject. In the demands it had addressed to the
Pope, and of which it pursued the realisation, had the
Cabinet exaggerated its rights, compromised the inte-
rests of France, made any unreasonable application,
or were the means employed unjust or impolitic ?
Such was the question. He then examined the cir-
cumstances under which the expedition was under-
taken, and -agreed with General Cavaignac that had
France abstained she would have disgraced herself.
There was only one alternative left, besides sending
an expedition to Civita 'Vecchia, that was, to recog-
-1 rf ze the Roman Republic and conclude with it an of-
fensive and defensive alliance. That plan had been
proposed to the Constituent Assembly by M. Ledru
Rollin, and supported only by a very small mi-
nority. Its adoption would have been an act of
1 unpardonable folly. Universal war would have
been its inevitable result, and a political and
religious war at home. It would have been, he
repeated, an act of insanity—the greatest of crimes.
The Cabinet was charged with not fulfilling its
engagements with the Roman people. The French
army had entered Rome without a capitulation, un-
conditionally. It might have dictated terms, but, in
spite of the guet-apens of the 30th of April, the 1
' insults and murders to which that army was exposed,
France had redeemed her pledge, and France alone,
under existing circumstances, would have acted as she
did. General Cavaignac repudiated all idea of inter-
vention. Now, when no revolution had yet occurred
at Rome, and, on the mere report that the Pope's
person was in danger, the General told M. de Cor-
celles, " We place a brigade at your disposal, with
which you must secure the person of the Pope and
bring him to France." This was not an interven-
tion, it is true ; it was a direct insult to the Pope.
Austria was preparing to march upon Rome. Her
assistance had been claimed by the conference of
Gaeta. The denouement Has imminent, and huma-
nity and liberty would have been menaced had
France not interfered in their behalf. No protest
had arisen against her intervention, not even
at Gaeta, where it was tacitly approved of. When
the three Cardinals took possession of the Government
their first acts alarmed not only the French agents
but public opinion itself. At that moment the Presi-
dent of the Republic did what he had already done
on a previous occasion. He raised the cry of French
conscience in the face of influences which seemed to
compromise the influence of France. His loyal and
generous sentiments were heard, as they were, when
an order of the day of the Constituent Assembly spread
discouragement in the ranks of the French army
under the walls of Rome. The President was nut
afraid to proclaim those sentiments in the face of
passions and at the risk of incurring the hatred of
parties. He could not sanction private vengeance
and the re• establishment of old abuses, and he
protested in favour of the French diplomacy, and he
had already protested in favour of the French army.
M. Victor Hugo had declared that that letter was in
complete opposition with the motu proprio. M. Odilon
Barrot admitted that it did not realise all the
expectations of the Cabinet, and it was for
that reason it continued to negotiate. tHe then
referred to the rumours which had circulated of late
relative to alleged differences between the Cabinet, the
President of the Republic, and the majority of the
Assembly, and indignantly denounced the culpable
hopes of those who speculated on a probable collision.
The Government was not, he said, pursuing at Rome
the realisation of chimeras ; it demanded for the
Roman people all the liberties compatible with their
wants and degree of civilization. The representative
government was impossible at Rome; the sad ex-
periment made of that form of government was an
insurmountable obstacle to its establishment, and it
was moreover incompatible with the sovereignty of
the Pope. His Holiness and Cardinal Antonelli, as
early as the 14th of July, had consented to grant the
Consulta of State the right of discussing and voting
the budget, with certain restrictions, it was true,
which he trusted the noble-minded Pontiff would
speedily remove. But he here declared, in the
name of the President of the Republic and his Mi-
nistry, that the idea of extorting by violence any con-
session from the Pope had never been entertained by
them ; and he was authorized by M. Louis Bonaparte
to give those who perceived a menace in his letter a
formal contradiction. The Pope had, moreover, con-
sented to the reform of the courts of law. In a con-
versation he had had with M. de Corcelles the Pontiff
thus expressed himself :—" You French are always in
a hurry. We Romans proceed more slowly ! Let this
not frighten you. I have a good piece of news to
tell you. A code of laws has been of late in progress
of preparation, but we wished: to do something agree-
able to France. We have accordingly resolved to
adopt for our model the best of codes—the Code
Napoleon, with a few modifications in certain chap-
ters, such as that of marriage„Acc." Tim Pope had
likewise conceded the most extensive municipal liber-
ties ever enjoyed by the Romans, or, indeed, by any
nation. In conclusion, M. BaTrot said that, now
that the Assembly knew the acts and demands of the
Government, and the object it pursued at Rome, it
behoved it to approve or disapprove its conduct ; but
the Cabinet was determined to reject any amendment
at variance with the explanations he bad given.
After short speeches by MM. CHARLES LAGRANGE
and Eatu. BARA.ULT, the whole of the amendments
were rejected without a division, and the first credit

demanded by the Government was voted by a nthjo-
rity of 469 to 180. The second and third items were
subsequently voted by nearly the same majority, and
the Bill was passed without a division.

The state trials at Versailles still continue. The
Court was occupied on Saturday in hearing evidence
of the proceedings of M. LEDRU-ROLLIN and the re-
presentatives at the Conservatoire.
The steam-frigate Tenare sailed for Toulon with
dispatches for the French Minister at Constantinople,
on the 16th.

The Constitmtionnel publishes a letter from Constan-
tinople of the sth, which states that although no dis-
patches have been received from St. Petersburgh, yet
that it is known for certainty that the conduct of the
Austrian and Russian Ambassadors is approved of
by their Courts. The former has received instruc-
tions to withdraw, and only waits for the authoriza-
tion of M. DE TITOFF to keep him company. It is
stated that, in case of war, Sir S. CANNING had pro-
mised English officers for the Turkish fleet, and
General AUPICJIC French officers for the land service.
M. DE TITOPT had sent away the Russian merchant
vessels. There was a rumour of news being brought
by a steamer of the sailing of the English fleet from
Malta for the Dardanelles.

The departure of the French fleet from Hyeres
was to have taken place on the 12th.
The Patrie publishes the :following letter from
Rome, dated 12th inst.:—
" The Holy Father has just consulted the Sacred
College on the opportuneness of his return to Rome.
The discussion was very long; it commenced on the 6th,
and was resumed awl terminated on the following day.
The majority decided that the residence of the Pontiff at
Rome was desirable, and that it was necessary that he
should instal himself at the Vatican during the occupa-
tion of Rome by the French army. The return of the
Pope, unless fresh diplomatic complications should arise,
will take place in the course of the month of December.
It has been decided that the effective strength of the
army will be reduced after the lit of January, and only
a garrison necessary to secure public tranquillity in the
city be left."
There has been but little done in the Passage de
l'Opera, but prices were rather better. Fives were
done at 88f. sc. •

There was a steady market for Cotton at Liverpool
on Saturday. The sales were estimated at 10,000 bales,
including 8,000 American at 50. to Bd. ; 500 Per-
nambuco, &c., at 61d. to 7d. ; 200 Egyptian at 64d. to
; and 300 Surat at 4p. to 4id. per lb. Of the
above American 4,000 were taken on speculation.—ln
Railway Shares a large business was done at a slight
advance.
The Grain market is not so firm to-day for inferior
wheat, but much the same for other samples.
The steamer America brings the United States and
Canada mails, but we have no letters in town yet. From
the outline of the news received, it would appear that
money was in request at New York, although there was
a fair supply of it. The markets were inactive for bread-
stuffs, but a good deal was doing in cotton at a slight
advance. Business generally is still favourably spoken
of, and there was more than the usual briskness after the
dull period occasioned by the hot weather and the pre-
valence of cholera. The Exchange on London was firm,
at 110 to 1101.
Respecting railways in the United States we are told
" There has been an increase in each of the past three
years, and it is altogether likely that the running ex-
penses per mile will this year, 1849, exceed that for
either of the previous years. According to the returns
of receipts, for the first six months of several years past,
the earnings of the last six months in 1846-47, and 48,
have been a little larger, and the same rate of receipts
for the last six months of 1849, will give an income of
374,998 dollars, which added to the receipts already
reported for the first six months, give an aggregate for
the year of 696,426 dollars. Now we are prepared to
show, upon the data of previous returns, that
nearly or quite the whole of the income will
be used up in the payment of running expenses and
repairs, leaving the interest on the debt and stock of
the company to be paid out of or by an increase of the
capital. It appears that the expenses in the first three
years ranged from 63 to 68 per cent., on a short road,
where the earnings per mile were to a fair amount, but
that proportion will not hold good on a long road, where
the earnings per mile are so much reduced. To make a
calculation upon such a basis, the receipts per mile
should be the same. We, therefore, base our estimates
upon the expenses per mile in 1848. The Erie Rail-
road is now two hundred and forty miles long,
and the same facilities for travel and transportation of
freight have to be kept up as though the traffic was dou-
ble what it will be. In 1848 the running expenses and
repairs per mile amounted to 2,642 dollars, and at the
same rate this year, the aggregate expenditures under
these heads would amount to 633,080 dollars.
" These expenditures will use up the whole of the in-
crease of capital. The railroad companies of New Eng-
land are rapidly increasing their capitals and adding
largely to the cost of construction. Unfortunately
their receipts, or earnings, do not increase in a corre-
sponding ratio, and the prospect of better dividends is by
no means promising. The cost of some of the railroads
in New England has been doubled within the past five
years, and the greatest extravagance has been exhibited
in some of the expenditures. The building of magni•
ficent depots has added largely to the capitals of several
companies ; and if the increase of roads creates a
greater competition and reduces the income of all, we
think railroad property in New England has seen its
best day s."
The Continental advices are not generally of interest
to-day, but there is satisfaction expressed among the
jobbers for a rise at the issue of the question raised in
the French Legislature upon the Roman affair.
There is a dull but firm market for Public Securities,
Consols being 92i to 4. The French advices are in
favour of prices, but the report that the Russian fleet
bas orders to be ready to sail at the shortest notice from
Sebastopol, deters speculators. The market is still

tice that the interest payable on the preference shares,
to parties who have paid all calls regularly, is a mere
fraction under Is. 51. per share, from which the income
tax will have to be deducted. The dividend warrants
are expected to be ready in about a fortnight.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE.-MONDAY.

Letters from the leading country markets held on
Saturday state that a steady demand prevailed for all
kinds of Wheat, at, in most instances, an advance in the
quotations of from is to 2s per quarter. Spring Corn
and Flour were held at full prices. The general supplies
were by no means extensive. We have later adrices
from New York ; the market for bread stuffs was very
inactive, at barely stationary prices. The demand' in
the western ports was equally dull. The continental
markets have been tolerably firm for most articles, at
fully previous rates. Several purchases of Flour have
been effected for our market. During last week the re-
ceipts of English grain into the port of London were
small, those from Ireland and Scotland trifling. The
imports from abroad were-5,803 quarters of Wheat,
4,512 do of Barley, 15,568 do of Oats, 6 do of Rye,
538 do of Beans, 944 do of Peas, 10 do of Tares, 4,580
do of Linseed, 40 do of Mustard Seed, 33 do of sun-
dry Seeds, 2,571 sacks and 657 barrels of Flour.
The quantity of Wheat of home produce received fresh
up to our market this morning coastwise from Essex
was considerably in excess of that reported on Monday
last, but the receips of that grain from Kent, Suffolk, and
Cambridgeshire were only moderate. By land carriage
the arrivals were slightly on the increase, and of fair
average qual'ity. Although the stands were by no
means heavily supplied with samples, the demand for all
kinds of English Wheat was in a very sluggish state.
Selected qualities of both red and white sold without
difficulty, at prices equal to those paid on this day
se'nnight, but the quotations of the middling and inferior
kinds suffered a decline of Is per quarter, at which a fair
clearance was effected. A few offers came to hand from
Essex and Cambridgeshire to ship Wheats at ruling
prices. With Foreign Wheat we were but moderately
supplied. Fine dry samples moved off at full rates
of currency. In the inferior kinds very little
business was transacted, and the quotations were in
some instances, Is per quarter lower than last week.
Very few transactions were reported in cargoes afloat;
hence prices ruled almost nominal, but certainly the turn
in favour of the buyers. The show of English Barley
was trifling; that of foreign comparatively small. Malt-
ing and grinding parcels moved off steadily, at full cur-
rencies. Distilling sorts commanded scarcely any
attention. Notwithstanding that the supply of Malt
was very small, that article was dull in the extreme, at
barely stationary prices. Very few home-grown Oats
were on offer. The supply of foreign was moderatel
extensive. Sound parcels sold at fully last week's
quotations. In all other kinds very little was doing, at
unaltered figures. There was a fair inquiry for Tick
Beans at full prices. All other kinds were dull. The
sale for alt qualities of Peas was heavy, and late rates
were with difficulty supported. Indian Corn and Meal
were much neglected, although the supply was trifling.
Fine Flour was quite as dear. S(e)nd qualities ruled
heavy.

SMITHFIELD.

During the week just concluded the imports of forei.g9
Beasts into London have been unusually extensive, vlz*,
1,479 head, chit fly from Denmark; but those of Sliceg!
Calves, and Pigs, have cxhibit(d a decided falling 0";
The total arrival has amounted to 4,608 head, being 48'
less than in the preceding week. At the same time J°
1848 we received 5,056; and during the same week .
1847, 3,471 head; hence it will be perceived that t.ho
supply has been seasonably large. The general qualltY
of the stock has turned out interior.
