LONDON, WEDNES DA Y EVEN I NG. SEPTEMBER 5, 1849:

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.
The Moniteur du Soir publishes the followii.g an-
nouncement :—" Several journals have circulated a
rumour of the approaching marriage of the PRESIDENT
of the Republic. We are authorised to declare that
this rumour is utterly without foundation."
In allusion to a paragraph which has appeared in
some of the journals, to the effect that Russia, Austria,
and Prussia have favoured a project for the partition
of Switzerland, the Assemidie Nationale says:—
" We can affirm," says that journal, " that such an
absurd idea has never entered the minds of the states-
men
of Europe. The journals which publish this ac-
count wish to distort the meaning of European interven
tion in the affairs of Switzerland. The real meaning is
this: a partition would be a shameful act, contrary to
treaties, whereas what is wished for is to carry out these
treaties. Thus the fundamental conventions of Switzer-
land recognize the independence of the small and large
cantons: the demagogues having absorbed and annihi-
lated the liberty of the small cantons, it is impossible for
such a state of things any longer to exist. All the
treaties recognise the sovereignty of the Kirg of Prussia
over the canton of Neufchatel; it is necessary for that
sovereignty to be again proclaimed. No principle of the
right of nations authorises Switwrland to become the re
ceptacle of all the refugees, of all the firebrands of Europe,
in such a manner as to be able to direct on Germany,
France, and Italy the agents of permanent conspira-
cies. This state of things is to cease. Austria considers
it necessary, in the interest of the safety of the Lom-
bardo-Venetian territory, to occupy the part of the
canton of Tessin() which extends as far as St. Gothard.
This pretension is open to dispute, since it is not in the
treaties; but on this point she is supported by Russia.
Such is the real state of the Swiss question. Nothing
more or less is wished for; but we know that to attain
this end the Powers are determined to adopt the same
system of firmness and resolution which they have fol-
lowed in the sad affairs of Hungary and Italy. We hope
the revolutionary party will not expose Switzerland to
all the misfortunes of invasion and war. Let the en-
lightened men who compose the Helvetic council listen
to the moderate and mediating advice of France, and
they will spare their country from great misfortunes."

Re-
publik, Court of Assizes of the Haut Rhin have ac-
quitted M. SCHMIDT, the die
who was charged with Ertr ofli the yolks
n
republishing
tending to excite to civil war, which had originally
appeared in the Travail Affranchi. On leaving the
court, M. SCHMIDT was greeted with enthusiastic
shouts of " Vive la Republique 1 " Vive la Consti-
tution”
1"
Several of the French notabilities have been
carried off by the cholera during the course of the
last week. Among them are —M. GERENTE,
one of the best painters on glass in France ; M.
MOURTHEN, director of the Orleans and Cen-
tral Railway ; M. DR CLERVAL, sub-prefect
of Segre ; Baron POILLY, one of the few remaining
officers of the camp of Boulogne, and M, PASCAL
SEJOURNE, the banker of Marseilles.

The Bank of France is about to make considerable
advances to the Treasury.
PARIS BOURSE—TUESDAY, SEPT. 4.

THREE o'CLocx.—Tne advance in FreeellSecurities
which marked yesterday's proceedings did not held up
to-day, During the early part of the Bourse the Rente
was again exceedingly buoyant, and the Five per Cents.
at one moment touched 92f., but sales to realise profits
being then made brought down prices rapidly, the dot-
ing quotation being 911. 30c. The Three per Cents.
closed at 56f. 10e., the fall on the day being 40e. for the
former, and 35c. for the latter. Bank of France Shares
have, however, continued their ascensional movement,
the last price being 2,370 f. or 15f. higher. Piedmont is
again sf. higher, closing at 845 f. Railways were not so
much affected as the Rente, and some of the lines are
even a shade higher. Exchange on London (30 days),
25 42k, money; ditto (90 days), 25 32i, money.

SPAIN.

Madrid journals of the 30th ult have arrived.

It is sail that an intrigue is on foot to procure the
abdications of the Queens of SPAIN and PORTUGAL,
the marriage of the son of the Queen of PORTUGAL
with the daughter of the Duke and Duchess of MONT-
PENSIER, and the union of the two kingdoms under
the rule of the Duke and Duchess of MONTPENSIER.
the object in view being the annihilation of English
influence in the Peninsula, which is to be given over
as an appanage to the Orleans tamily in exchange for
the withdrawal of their pretensions in France. In
allusion to this precious intrigue we find the following
in the Riforma _ _ _

" The journals of a neighbouring kingdom make im-
portant revelations respecting negotiations or intrigties
between statesmen here and those in power at Lisbon.
They are of such a nature that we dare not venture to
translate them. Amongst others, the Patricia is parti-
cularly explicit. It speaks of a project of mutual ab-
dication; of the dethronement of personages who have
nut yet re ached maturity ; of the acknowledgment of
certain rights and the waiving of others; of future ;e-
-gencies, &c ; in a word, the manifestation is so serious,
that doubtless the organs of the Government will be
forced to notice it, ar.d make some t xplicit declaration.
Meanwhile we abstain from making further comments.
We expect further information, since silence would
sanction these rumours, and compel us to take them into
consideration, in order to ascertain what is their
foundation."

The Clamor Publico of Madrid, of the 30th ult.,
says that bills drawn by the Spanish Government on
a town of Italy for half a million of reals, for the pay-
ment of the troops forming the Spanish expedition,
had been returned protested.
MADRID BoIAA., Au°. 30.—The Three per Cents.
were done at first at 26k, and afterwards at 26k ; at the
close, s and 7-16 were even asked. The Five per Cents.
were at 11/; Passive, 3k 15.16. Exchange on London,
50 75.

ITALY.

Letters from Rome of the 25th state that the cle-
rical reaction, aided by the pious bayonets of the
French, is proceeding to the most despotic and tyran-
nical excesses, in order to slake its thirst for ven-
geance. The dungeons of the Inquisition are filled
with victims, but the thirst for vengeance of the
priests is not yet slaked, and the arrests and secret
executions still continue. The freedom of the city
was conferred on OUDINOT before his departure. The
whole affair went off tamely, notwithstanding the
unwearied efforts of the priests to get up an appear-
ance of enthusiasm.

The Vauban frigate, which had been placed by Ad-
miral BAUPIN at the disposal of the POPE since the
month of March last, has received orders to return to
France. _

_
In the sitting of the 90th ult. of the Chamber of
the Deputies of Turin, Deputy RATAZZI read the
report of the Commission on the Bill for a monument
to be erected to CHARLES ALBERT. The Chamber
then voted the law allowing 100,000 f. for the present,
to be applied by Government to the relief of Italian
refugees. The Minister of the Interior took that
opportunity to state that the Government was actu-
ally engaged in considering a Bill for the establish-
ment of colonies in the island of Sardinia,
which would afford the refugees a proper and
certain relief. Deputy VALERIO then moved that
the Hospital of St. John at Rome, specially destined
for the Genoese, and belonging to Genoa, should be
opened to the late defenders of Rome, who might be
sick or wounded. M. GALVAGNO, Minister of Public
Works, approved of the motion, and promised to
write to the Sardinian Consul at Rome on the subject.
The Riforma of Lucca, of the 28th ult., positively
asserts that the Tuscan Government has determined
'to convoke the Chambers about the beginning of
January next. GUSTAVO MoDENA, one of the per-
sons proscribed at Rome, arrived at Leghorn from
Civita Vecchia on the 28th with his wife. He was
to proceed to Genoa.
The Milan Gazette, of the 30th ult., publishes a
proclamation by Marshal RADETZRY, dated Verona,
in which, after reciting, that deserters still continue
to rove in parties about the country, endangering the
security of persons and property, and that the said
deserters could not maintain themselves unless
assisted by the communes, such communes as shall
have been pointed out (indiziato) as having given
shelter or provisions to the said malefactors and
deserters, shall be punished with a fine, half of which
is to be given to the persons who have suffered
damage. Any individuals convicted of aiding and
abetting deserters, are to be shot. The military
patrols scouring the country are directed to shoot any
individual with arms in his hands, offering resistance.
A reward of six hundred francs is offered for every
deserter arrested and delivered to the proper authori-
ties. Passports are to be rigorously examined, and
officials neglecting their duties in matters relating to
this proclamation are to be dismissed, and otherwise
punished if necessary.
The Venice Gazette publishes a notification of the
Government Commission, dated the 24th ult., con-
taining a list of forty individuals, who, by order of
the Austrian Government, are to leave Venice.
Among them we remark DANIEL MANIN ; his
brother-in-law,_ ZANETTI ; Advocate AVESANI ; Dr.
LEVI ; Friar BERNARDINO MAZUCHETTO ; and N IC-
COLO TOMMASEO. By another notification of the
same date, all persons obliged to leave Venice are to
be furnished with Austrian passports.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
There was a dull market for Cotton at Liverpool yes-
terday, and the transactions were small; prices, however,
remsi" at Friday's quotations. The salsas were about
4,000 bales, including 3.500 American, 400 Pernam and
Maranbam, at Sid. to 61d., and 100 Surat at 4d. per lb.—
The Share Market continued very dull, and prices of all
kinds were again lower.
in Mark Lane to-day the arrivals of Grain are mode-
rate, and prices are without change generally, with a
slow sale.

Her Majesty's ship Petorel has arrived with the
Brasil mail. Her accounts, however, are of no general
interest. The latest date from Rio de Janeiro is July
10; but the River Plate accounts are only to June 10,
and, therefore, not later.

The continental Stock Markets have been without any
features of particular interest. At Amsterdam Dutch
Bonds were well supported, and more was doing in the
Two-and-a-Half per Cents., which were at 54. The
latest prices of the Metallics at Vienna was 95i.
The letters and papers per West India mail, delivered
yesterday afternoon, state that the weather generally was
favourable, and that there was a desire on all hands to
reduce expenditure, Ste.
The General Post-office authorities have adopted a
very excellent plan,:viz., that of receiving in St. Martin's-
le-Grand messages for direct dispatch per electric tele-
graph.

imaginable causes are assigned for the existing ex•
traordinary depression in railway shares, but probably,
as in most other cases, all are right and all are wrong.
Among other assertions is the alleged falling off in
traffic. Now, in referring to the traffic upon many of
the principal railways, we find that there is in
reality no actual diminution, although it must be
admitted that the increased mileage has not
in many cases produced corresponding results
in receipts. Due allowance, nevertheless, should be
made in all such cases for the time required to: develop
the traffic. However, we will pit the matter more
clearly than it appears in the ampler official tables, pre-
mising that the last weekly return for the North-Wes-
tern, South-Western,/ and Midland exhibits a decrease
compared with the like period of 1848, while the Brighton,
South•Eastern,:and Eastern Counties were larger, having,
however, more of their line open. We prefer taking the
eight weeks of the second half-year of 1848 and: 1849,
and they are as under:—

These figures speak for themselves, and we trust will
prevent undue sacrifice of property, though as to giving
an opinion of future dividends, even upon good traffic,
when the issue of preference shares is so extensively
resorted to, neither we, nor apparently the most expe-
renced brokers are able to do so. The policy of every
.one making investments is to inquire particularly as to
what are the guarantees of a company, and what is the
prospect of the traffic leaving a surplus for the old
shares, or otherwise to take the guaranteed stock.
The English Stock Market opened quietly, but is now
better, Consols having touched 92-i . The business
doing is of no moment. Bank Stock has been firm at
.199 to 200. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.
have been 93i to 94. Exchequer-bills have been marked
9s. to 425. premium.
The Foreign Securities have been very inanimate.
Mexican have realised 27i to i; Peruvian Deferred, 16i;
and Buenos Ayres, 48i to 49. Brazilian New have
been 85i; Dutch Four per Cents. are 84i.
Railway Shares are a trifle better, and possibly might
be decidedly rallied by a comparatively small amount of
cash purchases.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY
The supply of English Wheat received up to- our
market since Monday, coastwise as well as by land car-
riage, has been but moderate. The show of samples to.
day was, however, somewhat extensive, and chiefly the
refuse of last week. Very few buyers were in attend-
ance, and the demand for all descriptions was in a very
depressed state, at barely Monday's decline in the quo•
tations. Only 1,360 quarters of Foreign Wheat halo
come to hand. All kinds met a very heavy inquiry,
and, to effect sales, lower rates must have been sob-:
'flitted to by the importers, some of whom have beets
compelled to land in bond. No English Barley it
market. The show of Foreig❑ was large ; while the
inquiry ruled excessively heavy, at almost nominal cur-
rencies. Malt wai in short supply, and heavy demand•
Prices ruled somewhat in favour of the buyers. The
fresh supply of Oats was quite equal to the wants of
the dealers. All kinds ruled heavy, at barely stationary
prices. Beans, Peas, and Flour were dull in the extreme•
