AUSTRALIA.

We have received files of papers from Adelaide to
the 19th of May inclusive.
The following vessels had arrived at Adelaide from
England :—The ship Stebonheath, with 373 free
emigrants, last from Plymouth 313 t January ; the
Ancient Briton, from Newport, 22d December, with
one passenger; and the William Hyde, from Ply-
mouth, 28th January, with 104 passengers.
The Adelaide Observer of the 12th May says :
" The most unexpected of these arrivals is the Wil-
liam Hyde, having on board railway engines, rails, and
all the materials of construction. Mr. Parker, the
superintendent, and Mr. Cartwright Ildl, engineer and
surveyor, have arrived in the same vessel. The Ancient
Briton brings the fuel, and therefore nothing seems
wanting to enable the company to go a-head.
"Besides these arrivals, Hardy's Shipping List' con-
tains the names of the following ships bound for Ade-
laide, or Adelaide and Port Phillip, namely, the Cal-
cutta, Ellerslie, Susannah (emigrants), Childe Harold,
Dorothy, Inconstant (emigrants), Florentia (emigrants),
and Royal Sovereign. The latest day of sailing named
being February 9th, several of these vessels will shortly
be due. The number of ships advertised in the same
publication for New South Wales was six and for Port
Phillip six.
" The Garland Grove left Plymouth on the same day
as the William Hyde."
The emigrant ship Susannah, 514 tons, with nine
cabin and 216 steerage passengers, arrived at Ade-
laide on the 18:h of May, as also the brig Sarepta,
330 tons, from Swansea, with cargo and one pas-
senger._

The Susannah had a fine passage of 101 days from
Plymouth, during which three death 3 and three births
occurred.

AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, SEPT. 29.—The Weiner Zeitung states
that the cypher of the new loan, as known in the
capital on the previous evening, amounted to 18,615,400
florins.

A Vienna correspondent of the Cologne Gazette,
on the other hand, says the new loan does not pro•
ceed as might be desired. In the space of a week
scarcely 18 millions of florins have been subscribed
throughout the entire monarchy. As the subscriptions
are to be closed on the 4th, the most that can be hoped
for by that time will be double that sum ; we must,
therefore, look to foreign countries to subscribe the
remaining 35 millions ; but the last commercial let-
tars from &flip, Frankfort, Hamburgh, and Amster-
dam,hold out but a slender proepect that the capitalists
of these great cities will participate largely in the
operations of our Minister of Finance.
The splendid fete given here by Baron Rothschild
is much talked of, and is connected in the minds of
many well-informed persons with the new loan. It
was remarked that none but officers in the Austrian
service were present at it.

SPAIN.

Madrid journals of the 29th ult. have arrived. The
contents are unimportant.
MADRID BOLSA, SEPT. 29.—The Three per Cents.
were done at 27 15 16 for cash; the Four per Cents. at
Ili; and the Five per Cents. at 11 for paper ; the Debt
without Interest at 3 15.16; and the Ccupons at 7.

PORTUGAL.
Intelligence has been received from Lisbon to the
29th ult. Thebody of CHARLES ALBERT was removed,
with much ceremony, from the Cathedral of Oporto,
and placed on board a Sardinian war steamer, which
immediately sailed for Genoa.

CABINET COUNCIL ( DAY).—A Cabinet Coun-
cil was held at the Foreign-office this afternoon, at
one o'clock. There were present the Marquis of
Lansdowne, Lord John Russell, Viscountralmerston,
' Earl Grey, Sir George Grey, Mr. Labouchere, the
Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Earl of Carlisle
and Sir Francis T. Baring. The Ministers were in
deliberation when we went to press. Several of the
Ministers and great Officers of State leave town by
special train to-morrow, to attend the Privy Council
at Osborne.

DEATH OF GEORGEY.
The Vienna journals of the 30th ult. state, that
GEORGEY has been shot at Klagenfurth, by Count
EDWARD ZIOUY, whose brother was hanged by GEOR..
Gres order in the Danubian island of Csepel. The
account is, that Count ZICIIY walked up to GEORGEY,
who was sitting in a coffee-house, and :hot him dead
on the spot.
The Austrian Lloyd's of the 29th ult. publishes a
dispatch fro General lEvriatt, dated Acs, Sept., 27,
which announces the capitulation of Comorn. The
terms are not given.
The brutal murders perpetrated by order of the
EMPEROR Still continue, and Generals Auucu and
Bess have been shot at Arai. The representative of
the House of Hapsburgh-Lorraine and his Ministers
would, it is evident-, fain force us hack to the institu-
tions of the middle ages. It would be well that they
should remember that " the family feud" was one of
the most honoured of those institutions, and that the
pursuit of La Vendetta was in those days considered
a sacred duty.

THE POST OFFICE CHANGES.

SOUTHAMPTON, SEPT. 29.—1 t is understood that
the contemplated changes in the General Post-office,
whereby the receipt, sorting, and transmission of
letters on the Sabbath are determined on, have arisen
in a great degree out of the inconveniences existing
in respect to arrivals of foreign mail steamers at
Southampton on Saturdays and Sundays. Although
these inconveniences have been frequently alluded to
in this journal, yet, in the present juncture, it may
not be out of place to recur to them, with a view to
explain the necessity that has existed for some altera-
tion in the arrangement of the central Post-office.
W hen any of the royal mail steamers arrive at
Southampton on Saturdays after 3 r.si., the letter-
bags cannot be dispatched to London in time to be
sorted and included in the mails leaving the metro-
polis by that night's trains to the provinces for de-
livery on Sunday morning, and it therefore happens
that mails from the East Indies, China, Egypt, the
Mediterranean, British and Foreign West Indies,
South America, Chili, Peru, Venezuela, Spain, Por-
tugal, the United States, &c., have to remain in the
Post-office till Monday morning, then to be dis-
tributed and forwarded by day mails to Liverpool,
Manchester, Leeds, Bradford, York, Nottingham,
Birmingham, Bristol, Exeter, Southampton, and the
whole of the English provincial towns and cities,
besides Scotland and Ireland, and it is actually
the case that letters for Southampton, brought by
the steamers, reaching on Saturday P.m., having to
be sorted in London, cannot he delivered till the
following Monday afternoon at four o'clock, although
the steamers have been 48 hours in port—while in
the case of the manufacturing and northern districts
the letters are not delivered there till the evening,
too late for Monday's business operations. The evil
does not stop here, fur the delay of the mails in
transitu at the General Post-office frequently involves
the loss of an opportunity of replying by the return
steamers, and thus a whole mail of ten days or a fort-
night is lost. It is needless to remark that the royal
mail steamers do not always reach Southampton on
Saturdays or Sundays, these occurrences being rather
the exception than the rule. When such arrivals
take place, only a few hours' work will be required
from the officials on the Sabbath, which will neces-
sary lighten and lessen their labours on the succeeding
Monday.
London, England, 1849-10-05

CENTRAL GERMANY.

The Frankrort journals of the 3011 ult. state that
more conflicts had taken place b3tween the Prussian
and Bavarian soldiers in that city, and in one of
them serious injuries were inflicted on several of the
combatants. Patrols had to be called out to re-
establish order.

According to the Cologne Gazette, the Government
of Wirtemburg has definitively refused to accede to
the treaty of the Three Kings.
M. DE BEUNIGSEN, President of the Council of
Ministers in Hanover, has left for Vienna, to take
part in the conferences on the German question.
Hanover has, it is said, declared that she will not
continue to adhere to the Constitution of the Three
Kings, unless authorised by the States.

ITALY.

We learn by the Concordia of Turin, of the 2leth
ult., from Alessandria that General FANTI and
Colonel SANFRONI have been arrested for having dis-
obeyed the orders of General RAmortirio during the
late campaign.
The same journal states that when GARIBALDI
arrived in the port of Tunis the authorities would
not allow him to land. This measure was said to
have been recommended by the French Envoy.
The BET, however, offered GARIBALDI a steamer
to take him to Malta if he liked. GARIBALDI,
after some reflection, declined the offer,
recollecting that other Italian refugees had not been
received there. The Sardinian steamer then took
him back to atgliari, where he arrived on the 22d ;
and, after having been in quarantine till the 24th, he
was taken to the small island of Madalena, where he
now is, under the surveillance of Colonel FoLcuir, but
free upon parole to ramble about at his leisure. The
above journal quotes the following letter, dated Mad-
dalena, the 25di ult., which it has received. from
GARIBALDI:—
" Brother,—l have not been received at Tunis. I
have been lintled here till further orders from the Govern -
ment. Remember me to my friends. I have been very
well treated by Captain Mitteline tend tho
to me. "Yours faithfully,

" GARIBALDI."

In the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies of Turin,
of the 28th ult., M. BATTINI a!ked a question of the
Minister of the Interior concerning the manner in
which liberty of conscience was understood by Go-
vernment, since the bishops had threatened deaers
who sold DIODATI'S translation of the Bible, and the
Minister of the Interior had prohibited the sale of
that book. The Minister very laconically answered
that the measures alluded to were perfectly constitu-
tional. The subject then dropped, and the Chamber
proceeded to consider the Bill for the payment of 15
millions to Austria. The discussidt was adjourned to
the following day.
The Tuscan Government, says the Coatituzionale
of Florence, has concluded a loan of thirty millions,
with the guarantee of Austria.

The Tuscan Monitore of the 26th ult. announces
the arrival of the Grand Duke of TUSCANY at Sehon-
brunn on the 20th. M. BLENDOFF has arrived at
Rome as Rusin Envoy Extraordinary.

FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 5: iBto

were passed adopting the report, approving of the
dividend of 7f. 701. per share, and re-elezting the
retiring directors, Messrs. C. Laffitte and Lawrence,
after which the meeting separated.
MADRAS.—The survey of the intended line of rail-
way for Madras has been completed for a distance of
thirteen miles, and the results are favourable so far
as the engineering details are in question. The road
is almost level, presenting a rise only of 41 feet per
mile, somewhat under 56 feet through the whole dis-
tance. For the first two miles out of Madras the
soil is but indifferent, and will require to be
strengthened. The next two miles is composed of
very loose inaterid, consisting of two parts of sand,
and one of clay ; for a mile and half further on the
ground is half sand and half clay, after which the
line runs through a soil well calculated to sustain the
weight of the iron road,

BRITANNIA TUBULAR BRIDGE.—The new cylinder
for raising the tube having been fixed in the hydraulic
press, operations commenced on Monday, raising it
at the rate of six feet per day. Its action and struc-
tural strength are stated to be of the most improved
and perfect character.
RAILWAY RATES.—With reference to the efforts of
the railway directors to obtain powers to increase
their rates, it appears that the subject is now under
the consideration of the Commissioners of Railways,
and that they are desirous to receivc., any written
statements containing information on the subject.

THE lONIAN ISLANDS.

The lndependance Belge publishes the following.
It does not give any authority :
" The insurrection in the Island of Cephalonia has
gained ground since the last accounts. The troops
sent to quell it hare not proved sufficient. The Lord
High Commissioner proceeded there in person, and had
a narrow escape of his life. A soldier was shot dead at
his side. Martial law is in full vigour; seven of the in •
surgents have been sentenced to death and executed.
A portion of the English squadron stationed at Malta is
under weigh for Cephalonia, and it is hoped that tran-
quillity will soon be re-established."

On Tuesday last the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor
and the Lady Mayoress paid a visit to Mr. and Mrs.
Laurie, at their beautiful residence, the Marshalls, near
Romford, in Essex, upon the interesting occasion of chris-
tening the infant son of the ex-sheriff, who received the
names of " Francis Duke," after his sponsors, the Lord
May ur and Lady Frances M•Naghten. The ceremony was
performed by the Venerable Archdeacon Grant. A
large party afterwards joined the family circle at dinner,
to meet the Lord Mayor and Lddy Mayoress, including
Archdeacon and Mrs. Grant, Lady M'Naghten, Mr. and
Mrs. Miles, Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Battescombe, Sir Peter
Laurie and Miss Laurie, Mr. and Mrs. Masheter, and
many of the neighbouring gentry.
BISHOPRIC or NORIVICIL—We are informed that
Dr. Rind, Dean of Carlisle, has been appointed to the
vacant Bishopric of Norwich, and the Rev. James Aspi-
n!ill, M.A., of Althorpe Rectory, Lincolnshire, is to be
his successor at the deanery.
.Lord Panmure has feued to Capt. Wemyss, Lord-
Lieutenant of Fiteshire, a space of ground, about an
acre in extent, among the Birks of Ardoch—situated in
the Glen, near his Lordship's shooting lodge at Mildens
—on which delightful spot a summer residence is to be
erected by the Lord-Lieutenant.—Montrose Standard.

SURREY THEATRE.

The operatic company which has held profitable
possession of this theatre for the last few weeks has
departed—the singing birds having taken their flight,
the actors have donned the sock and buskin, and are
seeking to elevate and delight the Surrey public. The
selection of Sheridan Knowles's play of The Rose of
Arragon speaks well for the intention of the manage-
ment, and is a step in the right direction. Good plays
and humorous farces must, in the long run, prove more
profitable than sanguinary melodrama and gaudy spec-
tacle, and the result of the experiment of Monday night
must, we should think, set all doubts on this point
at rest. The company is capitally selected, and fully
efficient to the due interpretation of the better class
of drama, and the healthy sentiment, nervous poetry,
and ingenious situations of The Rose of Amager:
were thoroughly appreciated and relished with great
gusto by a crowded auditory. Mr. Creswick, who
was a leading member of the Haymarket Theatre
during the last two seasons, has become one of the
managers, a sufficient warranty that all fitting exi-
gencies of the stage will be duly cared for. The play
was exceedingly well acted in all its parts, and the
scenery, dresses, and appointments were on the most
liberal scale. Mr. Creswick, Mr. Shepherd, and Ma-
dame Ponisi, in the leading characters, were de-
servedly applauded, and called before the curtain at
the termination of the tragedy.

FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE AYR RACE COURSE...—.
An accident, attended with a fatal result, occurred at
the Western Meeting at Ayr on Friday. As Mr. Drake's
colt Reversion was running the second heat for the Glas-
gow and Ayr Railway Company's Plate, a farm-servant
named Wm. M'Ghee ran across the course immediately
in front of the animal. M'Ghee was struck by the horse
and knocked heavily to the ground, when one of the fore
feet struck him on the face, and one of the hind feet
trampled on his body. lie was carried to the hospital in
an insensible state; and despite the utmost attention of
Dr. Crawfcrd, he never rallied, and died the fPliOwing
morning. From a post mortem examination of the body,
the bones of the cheek were found to be fraettired, one
of the ribs broken, and the liver injured. No blame is
attached to Marson, the jcckey of Reversion.—nr

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. 18.—The Swift, 6, Com-
mander Aldham, was spoken with on the 26th of
July, in lat. 14 47 N., long. 24 55 W., Brava E. 15
miles, and sent letters to England, by one of which we
!earn that the prisoners were all well. One letter
says—" We are not allowed to speak with the State
prisoners, particularly Mr. O'Brien and Mr. Meagher.
The latter appears a quiet, gentlemanly man. We
have had beautiful weather throughout, and a very
pleasant passage."
The Terrible steam-frigate, Captain Ramsay, went
out of harbour this morning, for 'Woolwich, to be
paid off.
A melancholy accident occurred at Spithead last
evening. Captain Somerville, of the Royal Engi-
neers, wife, and female servant, had been on board
the Superb, and were returning homewards in the
boat of a waterman named Bailey, when they
changed into a smaller boat, or punt, which, being
over freighted, instantly capsized, and all were
immersed in the waters, between the Superb
and Southsea-beach. Captain and Mrs. Somer-
ville regained the boat, and were picked up, but the
less fortunate attendant sank to rise no more alive.

Thr body, however, was promptly recovered, and
conveyed to the King's-rooms, on Southsea-beach,
where a warm bath and the utmost assiduity of its
proprietors (Mr. and Mrs. Hollingsworth), combined
with the best medical attendance, were set in opera

tion, but all fruitlessly; animation did not return.
The distress of the Gallant Captain and his amiable
lady is naturally great at the disaster, which is the
second of the like nature from a similar imprudent
cause within three week 9, and ought to operate as a
warning to all excursionists upon the water in such
treacherous craft as " pleasure' boats.
The Myrtle steam-tender, Master Commander S.
Braddon, sailed this evening, with supernumeraries,
and one sergeant, one corporal, and 17 gunners of the
Royal Marine Artillery, for service in the Hecla
steam-sloop.
The Inflexible steam-sloop, Commander Hoseason,
remains at Spithead, awaiting Admiralty orders.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES

The llanzburgh Borsenhalle says, as the time tip-
pro2ches for the expiration of the term (six months)
for which the armistice between Prussia and Den-
tinal k was concluded, it may not be uninteresting to
revert to the stipulations relative to the duratiun of
the armistice, as contained in article 1 of the conven-
tion of the 10th of July of this year. The article
says—

From the day of exchange of the ratifications of the
present convention, all hostilities, both by sea and land,
shall be completely suspended for the term of six months,
and an additional term of six weeks after the denun-
ciation of the armistice by either party. Should the
present armistice be denounccd, the Prussian and
German troops may occupy the continent of the duchy
of Schleswig, which in this case shall be evacuated by
the neutral troops. who, according to article 5, may still
be stationed there."

Now as the exchange of the ratification of this
convention took place on the 17th of July, 1849, it
results from the foregoing stipulation, that
1. The armistice will at all events continue till the
17th of January, 1850.
"2. That if it is to terminate on the 17th of January,
it must be denounced by one party or the other aut
weeks before the 17th January, consequently, at latest,
on the Gth of December this year.
That it must continue to remain in force even after
the 17th of January, so long as no el, nunciation has been
made in either side.

"4. That from the day of the denunciation, whenever
that may take place, six full weeks must elapse before
hostilities mly be recommenced."

THE ART JOURNAL.

Another volume of this splendidly illustrated pub-
lication is here completed by the current number for
December. From the Vernon Collection we hare
before us copies by the graver of H. Beckwith, of
the " Low Life" and "High Life " of Edwin Land-
seer. Everybody is familiar with these admirable
paintings, which the engravings will only ter.d to
render yet more popular. Sir H. Westmacott's
'• Distressed Mother" is the statue represented in
this the 103 d number. From the editorial address,
which celebrates the conclusion of the volume for

849, we gladly extract the following foot-note:—

" In a letter written by Mr. Vernon in answer to an
address of the artists and engravers who had been em-
ployed at his house copying and engraving the pictures,
Mr. Vernon thus expressed himself—' The engravings
are most beautifally executed, and I trust that when
they are published in the Art-Journal they will be ap-
preciated by the public, and by their diffusion at so mo-
derate a cost, improve and increase the taste for the
productions of our native artists."

The following paragraph likewise from the same
address is also worthy of particular consideration :
" The Art-Journal is at present almost the only Art-
Journal of Europe. In France L'Artiste lingers, but can
be hardly said to exist, with a monthly circulation of
about three hundred; in Germany the Kunst Blatt, so
long the organ and oracle of European art, has ceased
to be published; In Italy no publication worthy the
name has of late years represented the arts; and we are
not aware of the existence in either of the other states
of Europe of any work devoted to those Arts of
Peace' which struggle, oppressed and terror-stricken,
amid the turmoil of domestic war. Under such circum-
stances, therefore, the best talent of the Continent is in
a great degree at our disposal; and we quote the words
of one of the most eminent and accomplished of German
writers, Dr. Wangen, who, in one of the articles with
which he has honoured our pages, says, I now look to

The Bamburgh Borsenhalle says, as the time ap-
pronches for the expiration of the term (six months)
for which the armistice between Prussia and Den-
mark was concluded, it may not be uninteresting to
revert to the stipulations relative to the duration of
the armistice, as contained in article 1 of the conven-
tion of the 10th of July of this year. The article
says—

-6. From the day of exchange of the ratifications of the
present convention, all hostilities, both by sea and land,
shall be completely suspended for the term of six months.
and an additional term of six weeks after the denun-
ciation of the armistice by either party. Should the

BRUSSELS, DEC. 7.—The Observateur having said
that there was a report of a disunion in the Cabinet
on the project of law respecting the reorganisation of
the office of Chancellor of the Exchtquer, and three
of the Ministers would retire, -the iloniteur of this
day says—
" These reports are entirely without foundation; no
difference whatever exists in the Cabinet on the subject
of the questions now before it, or those which are an-
nounced to be brought forward."
The central section and two others have decided
upon a great reduction in the budget of war, but that
this reduction is impossible as the law of organisa-
tion now stands, and that that law must be revised.
None of the sections will adopt the budget of war as
proposed by Government.. The sections are to be oc-
cupied this day in exstnining the prujects of law rela-
