The Weiner Zeituryi of the 24th gives long ,details
from Prague of the audience granted by the Em-
rEnon,tand of his MAJESTY'S progress through the
city to view the splendid illuminations in his honour.
Great jealousy exists between the Austrian Central
Government and the Slavonian sulvects (of the em-
pire. To such a height has this jealousy reached
that even ja)ELLACHICH is looked on with an eye of
suspicion by the Government, a suspicion somewhat
justified, it must be admitted, by the recent conduct
of the BIN.
A change significant of time has just been made in
the Agram university. The Banalrath has abolished
the chair for the Magyar language, and replaced it by
a professorship of the Russian. The Banalrath

just made in the county of Presburg, it is remarked
that no Slavonian has been chosen, an omission the
more striking as all the ablest men, as well as the
chief interests, of the Slowacks are concentrated in
this district. The great majority of the population is
Slavonian, and about a third Magyar. The Germans
are confined to Presburg, St. George, and Moden.

MAKING A FALSE REGISTER OF A 7/IRTIL
Maw Dewet surrendered this morning to receive the
judgment of the court for felony. The prisoner had
been convicted of having feloniously caused a false entry
to be made in the register book of births for the parish
of St. Clement Danes. She went, it appeared, to the
registrar, and represented a child which she had with
her as her own, and had it entered as such, well knowing
thee Lb. otatewellt was fame, it having turned out that
the child belonged to another woman, who accompanied
her.
Mr. Justice CREISWELL, after adverting to the neces-
sity of some cheek being put to the commission of frauds
upon registrars, sentenced her to one month's imprison-
ment in Newgate.

BANKRUPTCY.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Commissioner FONELANQUE.)
VAUXUALL GARDENS.-IN RE BLAIN AND PEARCE.
To-day was appointed for the last examination of
these bankrupts, late lessees of the Royal Gardens,
Vauxhall. Th© fiat was sued out by the bankrupts, and
no assignee has been chosen.
Mr. Moss, solicitor to the bankrupts, applied for an
adjournment, as the accounts had not been duty filed,
but were prepared.
His HONouu asked what excuse could be urged for
the delay?
Mr. Moss said they were very voluminous, and one of
the bankrupts had been ill.
One of the bankrupts said the secretary of the Gar-
dens had been out of town.
Mr. PENNELL (the official assignee) said that the ac-
counts did not appear so very voluminous, and he had
no funds to pay the expense of an adjournment.
His HONOUR said that any adjournment must be at
the expense of the bankrupts.
Mr. Moss said he could not offer any objection, and
the case was adjourned for a month.
Very few creditors were present, and it was said that it
was intended to supersede the fiat.
IN RE BAIT.
This bankrupt had carried on business in Moo rgate-
street, and Mr. Pettis, the accountant to the estate, ap-
plied for the bankrupt's certificate, which was granted
forthwith.
These were the only'cases during the morning.

A MINUTE TOO LATE.—This was an action brought
against defendant, a stock-broker, in Bank-buildings, to
recover the amount of IGI., the balance of instalments
due on a guarantee given on behalf a third party. The
defendant not having pleaded to the action, it was held
that as the guarantee was set forth on the record the
production of the guarantee was sufficient without proof.
The jury gave a verdict for the amount claimed.
The case did not occupy five minutes, and before the
papers had been packed up defendant's solicitor appeared
in court, and said that plaintiff's solicitor had
" snatched an opportunity," and had fooled away money,
as the expense would have been saved.
There was only one other case, undefended, on a bill
of exchange.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Nov. 29.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Honnoyn.)
IN RE S. P. HEMMINGS.
The bankrupt was the proprietor of the Flora Tea
Gardens at Camberwell. This was a meeting for the
proof of debts, and his last examination. The accounts
htd not bem filed in consequence of the bankrupt's
ill alate of health.
Mr. BRAHAM, for the bankrupt, said that an ar-
rangement was about being entered into by which it
was expected the creditors would receive 203. in the
pound. Upon which a creditor sail he trusted the
estate would be wound up under the inspection of that
court. He complained of the bankrupt having done
hint an injustice.
Mr. Cox stated that a creditor, named Smith,
wished to prove for a debt of 311., contracted in 1829,
shortly :after which period the bankrupt took the
benefit of the Insolvent Act.
His HoNovi held that under the 7th of Geo. IV.,
this was no bar to the creditor's proving. In the case
of ex parte Robinson a similar question arose, and
which had been thus decided in favour of the right to
prove. The statute of limitations did not apply in a
case where a debt had been entered in an insolvent's
schedule.
Too case was adjourned to the 31st of January.

tiff's leig and jammed it against the companion hatch
‘vay. Witness assisted to remove the plaintiff after
thleaecident to the hospital, where it was found on
tn?t. g
off his boot that his leg was broken. The
plait stiff, before the accident, was earning 365. a week,
bu' since the accident he has lost his situation, though
he has been employed occasionally with the Messrs.
L aurie.
Mr. Sawley, a surgeon at St. Thomas's Hospital,
proved that he saw the plaintiff on his removal to the
hospital on the day after the accident, and that he had
sustained a fracture of the fibula into the ancle joint.
He remained in the hospstal until the 22d of August.
Dr. Roe had seen plaintiff's leg on Monday last,
and it had not then recovered its ordinary healthy
tone. There was great deformity, besides the injury
to the joint.
Mr. Sergeant Suns addressed the jury for the
defendant. lie contended that the mode in which
the parties in charge of the Sons of the Thames
carried their anchor was so negligent as to occasion
the accident, and therefore that they, and not the
defendant, should have been responsible to the plain-
tiff for the injury he had sustained.
Henry Barrett, on the part of the defendant,
proved that he was captain of the Bachelor on the
16th of July, 1848, the day when the accident occurred.
He never saw the Sons of the Thames until she
struck the Bachelor. Saw the Bee coming out from
the halfpenny pier. She gave way, and the Bachelor
went on ; then the Sons of the Thames came along-
side and struck the knuckle of the Bachelor. Had a
distinct recollection that the Bachelor was overtaken
by the Sons of the Thames, and that the Bachelor
was proceeding in the proper and ordinary course.
The Bachelor carried her anchor inside the boat alto-
gether, unstocked.
Cross-examined by Mr. HUMFRET—Had been
three days captain of this boat when the accident hap-
pened.—(Laughter.) It is not "once a captain
always a captain —they did not do business in that
way.—(Renewed laughter.) The Bachelor was
going very easy when the Sons of the Thames touched
her. The Bee did not give way for the Bachelor
until the mischief was done.
John Wheeler, mate on board the Bachelor, cor-
roborated the preceding witness's account of the
accident.
Other witnesses were called on the part of the de-
fence, but it is sufficient to say that there was the
usual amount of conflicting evidence given in this as
in all kindred cases, each of the litigants, by their
witnesses, charging the other with being instrumental
to the accident.
Mr. HUHFRET replied upon the defendant's case.
The LORD CHIEF BARON summed up, and
The jury had not returned a verdict when our
report left.

raise capital to make the line to Knockwilliam, or
shut up the concern at once.
Mr. GEORGE RADE (a director) said no funds of
the company would be appropriated to the sttam-
boats. The running of steam-boats was a private
speculation of two directors.
Captain MOORSOAIE asked:what the expense of the
temporary station at Jerpoint would be ?
Mr. BATES said not more than 1001.
Captain Moousoms asked if there were any
not acmen-
tions
pending against the company which were
tioned in the report ?
Mr. BATES was not aware that they were expect..
ing an action about timber.
Captain:Moousosm--Is there not Burnett's ?
Mr. BALTEs—No, that is settled. We are to pay
1,5001. for a claim of 3,0001. 5001. has been paid.
Mr. TAUNTON—We have had a lawyer's letter for
a claim made by Captain Moorsome.
Captain MOORSOME—WeII, that is not mentioned.
Mr. TAUNTON—No; but we have had no action
commenced against u., and I hope we shall not.
Mr. EDWARDS (the solicitor), said there were three
actions pending in Ireland, and tw o in England, all
of which were on the point of being settled.
Captain MoonsomE—ls the capital account rigidly
closed, quasi Thomastown and Kilkenny ?
Mr. 13aus—Yes, it is—as between those two places
it is closed.
Mr. lianpow—How many forfeited shares are
there ?
Mr. BATES replied 1,800. The directors had now
no alternative but to enforce calls or forfeit shares.
After some further discussion the report was
adopted, and resolutions in accordance with its re-
commendations were agreed to.
Thanks were then voted to the;Chairman and
directors, and the meeting terminated.

HAYMARKEI"FHEATRE.

Mr. Morris Barnett's admirable comedy of The
Serious Family continues to draw crowded houses
on the off nights at the little theatre in the Hay-
market ; and it would be a matter of surprise were
it otherwise, for not only is the comedy excellent in
itself, hitting, and hitting most effectively, one of the
most disgusting of the follies of the day, but it is
acted after a manner as nearly approaching to per-
ftotion as possible, containing in the same cast
Webster, Wailack, Buckstono, Mrs. AV. Clifford, MiLs
Reynolds, and Mrs. Fitzwilliam. It went off ad-
mirably last night, eliciting shouts of laughter and
applause. At the conclusion all the principal artistes
were called before the curtain. The comedy was fol-
lowed by the farce of the Laughing Hycena, in which
Webster was admirable. The pertormance concluded
with the Guardian Angel.

not quite so brisk as fur some weeks past. Even the

to have received a slight check. Fancy goods for the
spring trade have been bought very readily during the
season , and few, if any, now remain on hand.

THE HAGUE, APRIL 23.— NETHERLANDS NAVIGA-
TION DUES IN GREAT BRITAIN.—Last year the
Netherlands Consul-General in London made com-
plaints to the Board of Trade relative to the obliga-
tion upon the Netherlands vessels, by the Trinity
House. of Newcastle, to take pilots on board and pay
them in the navigation of the river Tees—an obliga-
tion to which British vessels were not subject. This
appeared also to be in direct opposition to the treaty
concluded between the Netherlands and Great
Britain in 1837. The representation of the Nether-
lands Consul was submitted to her MAJESTY'S Go-
vernment,. which immediately gave orders to the
Trinity House of Newcastle to place the Netherlands
vessels on the same footing as the British. Some
time having necessarily elapsed :between the giving
of the order and the carrying out of the measure, the
British Government has very nobly consented to de-
fray all the expenses of pilotage which have been
caused meanwhile.

A report has been in general circulation, thrt the
commander of Bois le Duc had received orders for
the Limburg contingent to be ready to march for
Schleswig-Holstein at a moment's notice. This
occasioned great dissatisfaction there ; and the fact
that the King of the NETHERLANDS had openly
become the enemy of the King of DENMARK was
severely commented upon. The Rotterdam Courant,
however, denies this statement. Dutch Papers,

PRUSSIA.

We have received Berlin papers to the 22d. The
schism between the Chambers and the Ministry on
the subject of the acceptance of the Frankfort Con-
stitution is so profound that either a change of Minis-
try or a dissolution is inevitable. The Chamber has
passed the following resolution in reference to the
Frankfort Constitution by a majority of 175 to 159.
This article runs thus :—" The Chamber declares
that it, on its part, acknowledges as legally valid the
Constitution, such as it was completed and resolved
upon at the second reading by the National Assem-
bly ; and, moreover, expresses a conviction that no
alteration of the said Constitution can take place
unless in the manner pointed out in the same."

ITALY.

In the sitting of the 14th of the Roman Constituent
Assembly, Mazzini ascended the tribune, and an-
nounced to the Assembly the change of government
that had taken place at Florence. He added that
as soon as the triumvirate could obtain further
information, the Assembly would be apprised
of it. He then observed that 'this event
did not materially change the position. of Rome;
it would only be necessary to act with redou-
bled energy ; that the triumvirate consequently pro-
posed to the Assembly to proclaim the levy en masse,
to renew the oath they had taken at the beginning of
the session, namely to uphold the republican principle
by every means, and to publish a proclamation approv-
ing beforehand all measures the triumvirs might deem
it expedient to take, and declaring that two millions of
free men are sufficiently strong to oppose resistance to
internal reaction and external enemies. The whole
Assembly at these words rose unanimously, and swore
to maintain the Republic. Mazaini then, i. the name
of the triumvirs, proposed a law, declaring the price
of salt to be reduced to a baiocco (4 centimes) a
pound. The triumvir Armellini then proposed that
all the landed property of the State
should be immediately destined to be par-
celled out into small portions for the advantage
of the public and of agriculture. This measure, he
said, would for ever attach the: people to the Re-
public. This proposal was received with applause.
A Commission was then named to take into con-
sideration the proclamation proposed by the Govern-
ment. The Commission soon returned and read the
following proclamation, which was adopted :
"In consequence of the late events which have taken
place place in Italy, the Roman Constituent Assembly declares
as follows:—The Roman Republic, the asylum and bul-
warkof Italigi liberty, will twitter give way not OIL-

the neglect of a Moorish servant of the French
consul catred great loss to n neighbouring Moor, f%r
which the Governor imprisoned him. The cuosul
protested rgaimit this, on the plea that, being in his
his pay, he as entitled to prot( ction as a -Fr ench
subjcct, and struck his flag-staff, ordering his vice-
consuls to do the same. The French subjects are
placed under the protection of the British consul,:!e.
The Governor, Sir 11. Gardner, paid an official
visit to the Governor of Algesiras on tie 12th.

" Orders have at length been given at St. Peters-

Russian trcops shall go against the insurgent Magyars
ersembliA in Transylvania. Russia has promised the
assistance of 20,000 infantry, 4,000 cavalry, and 24
pieces of artillery under the command of the Russian
Lieutenant-General Von Moller, a brave Livonian.
The Russian corps is immediately to occupy the
Transylvanian frontier, and will soon commence opera-
tions, till the proposed attack shall have been carried in
the district lying between the south, west, and north of

GIBRALTAR.

On the 14th inst. the Governor and the members
of the board of health decreed that all vessels ar-
riving from the coast of Barbary are to be admitted
to free pratique. Prior to this date, vessels arriving
from the Black Sea, Constantinople, the Levant,
Alexandria, &c., could not get pratique. They are
now to be admitted to free pratique, after three days'
quarantine, and in all other respects are to be placed
• on the same footing as at Malta.
The expensive system of
placing health guards
astern of vessels from the Levant is now done away
with, provided that they anchor northward from the
Samarang in the quarantine ground.
In consequence of a dispute with the Governor of
Tangier, the French Consul-General arrived in
Gibraltar Bay, in the French war-steamer Eclaireur,
ea the 14th ilia., with tkis family. It appears that
London, England, 1849-04-26

struggled with them in the 14:-gislature for the
advancement of the great came of reform, fur the in-
troduction of every liberal measure, and for the i re-
vention of that reaction which is continually
tending to raise the aristocratic opposition
from the zero of Conservatism to the fever-
heat of Toryism. With the Prime Minister, more-
over, the welcome awarded to himself and to his
colleagues by the Chief of the Corporation of the
metropolis must always be a peculiar source of
pleasure—for in visiting the LORD MAYOR of London
he is visiting the head of that great city whose inha-
bitants have thrice elected him as their representative.
Among the most interesting speeches delivered last
evening at the civic banquet to the Ministerial
advisers of the SOVEREIGN will be found those of the
Right lion. the LORD MAYOR himself, those of the
Premier, of the Foreign Secretary, of the Lord High
Chancellor, of the Right lion. the Speaker of the
House of Commons, of General WFairss,
of Sir FRANCIS BARING, of the Archbishop
of CANTERBURY, and of Lis Excellency the
French Ambassador. While suffused, of course,
with that glowing cordiality which is the character-
istic of after-dinner eloquence, these speeches are, in
an unusual manner, marked by their sincerity, their
simplicity, and their pervading manliness.

DUBLIN, WEDNESDAY EVENING.—In addition to
the other calamities which have fallen upon the
western provinces, is to he added the fearful spread of
pestilence.
Accounts reached town this day which state that

the chulera is rapidly thinning the peasantry in
Ballinrobe, in the county of Mayo, and that it has
also broken out in great virulence in the workhouse
of Ballinasloe, in the county Galway. A letter
from the latter town, dared last night, says—
" The greatest consternation has prevailed here
since morning in consequence of the appearance of
cholera in one of the auxiliary workhouses, with
which the town is crowded. Up to the present time
we understand there have been no less than 87 cases,
of which 22 have already proved fatal. The disease
has now broke out in another of these workhouses,
where 12 cases have already occurred, and two
deaths. We - fear that humanly speaking there is
every probability of the malady committing fearful
ravages in this town, there being no less than 16
auxiliary houses crowded wi►h paupers."
Extract from a letter dated Ballinasloe 24th April :
—"I regret to have to tell you that the cholera has
made its appearance here, and the town is in a fright-
ful state this morning. There were upwards of
twenty new cases of cholera this morning. I hear
more since ; there were several deaths last night
through the town, and in the vicinity persons are ly-
ing dead, and no one to bury them.'

THE WEST j: JON DON UNIoN.---An inquest was held
yetterday at the Coopers Arms, Wes.t-street, Smith-
field. by Mr. Payne, on OIL) body of a young man named
William Evans, who died in the W( st Londolence on Uniand
on,
and in whose treatment it was alleged great vi
ill-usage had been resorted to by the officials employed
in that establishment. The jury viewed the body, which
lay in the dead-house, and which exhibited on the arms
and legs marks of violent pressure, and of ligatures which
had ab-radAl the skin. The body was also very much
emaciated. A great deal of evidence was heard impli-
cating the person employed as taskmaster and his as-
sistants, and, after a lengthened examination, which ex-
cited great interest, the inquest was adjourned till
Thursday next, to afford an opportunity for the attend-
ance of the guardians, and for the further examination
of witnossea.

WIRTEMBURG.

On the 22d there was an extraordinary meeting
of the Second Chamber at Stuttgard, at which the
President read the answer of the KING to the Address
of the Chamber on the German question. In this
answer the LING said the National Assembly of
Frankfort had made a Constitution, but had not com•
pleted it. The King of Pnussta. had not acknow-
ledged it, and had refused the Imperial Crown. How
then could they call on him to acknowledge that
which did not exist ? He assured them he would in
due time acknowledge all the Constitution, with the
exception of the question of the sovereignty. He
would not submit to the house of Hohenzollern.
But if all the other German Powers should acknow-
ledge it, then he would make the sacrifice also, though
most unwillingly. If they forced him by revolt to
act contrary to his opinions, he should be at liberty
to revoke his acts when free from restraint. He
would have submitted to the Emperor of AUSTRIA,
had he been elected, as that would be for the good of
the country. He had no difference with his Ministry,
except that relating to the period of his making his
declaration. The majority of the people were well
disposed ; it was only a few factious who were cre-
ating the disturbance. He regretted that the States
were not in accord with the Government on this
question.
The deputation having pressed on the KING that
any further delay to acknowledge the Constitution
would compromise the tranquillity of the country, he
replied, " Very well. We shall see. I have acted ac-
cording to my conscience and my ccnviction."

The—Chamber then passed the Pollossing resolution,
by a majority of 46 votes against 23:
" The Chamber demands that the Constitution of the
empire be recognised at: the law in Wirtemberg, and that
all citizens be bound to obey ii, and that every attack
on it be considered as a crime."

The KING is acting at the instigation of Austria, a
certain M. KLINDWORTII, who was an old "reporter
of conversations" to M. GUIZOT, according to the
Revue Retrospective, being the organ of communica-
tion between the King of IVIRTEMBURO and the great
European reactionary conspiracy.
