A letter from Bologna, of the 30th ult. says—

" It is asserted here that a convention has been con-
eluded between the Government of Rome and that of
Vienna, for the evacuation of Ferrara. On the 4th of
next month the Austrians will, it is said, leave the
town, and retire to the fortress. They will, however,
occupy the two barracks and the hospital, as hitherto,
and will keep with the Papal troops the barrier leading
to Ponte di Lsgo Scuao, on the Po. Count Graziadi
replaces Cardinal Ciachi, ad interim, in the Govern-
ment of the Legation of Ferrara. The affair of Luni-
giana is not yet arranged between Tuscany and Mo-
dena ; but if it be true, as we are assured, that the
Customs League is already converted into a defensive
alliance between Rome, Turin, and Florence, Tuscany
has nothing to fear. The 5,000 muskets bought in
France, for the National Guard of Bologna, hare ar-
rived ; and they will be distributed to-morrow, to the
different quarters. The arms reserved for Ancona have
also arrived. There have not yet arrived any arms
destined to the towns of Romagna. The students of our
university have demanded to be allowed to Corm a. se-
parate battalion, similar to the University battalion of
Pisa."

The Florence Gazette announces that several cases
presenting all the symptoms of Asiatic cholera had
manifested themselves at Venice and in the island of
Palma.

Vcsuvius has been giving new signs of life since
the 13th ult. Ten torrents of lava, more or less large,
have been flowing from the craters in a southern
direction, towards Oltojana, Bosco-Real, and Torre-
Greco, stopping only a short distance from the wooded
plains which surround these towns. A new crater of
about five yards diameter has formed itself on the
mountain, and with great noise throws up incessantly
stones, cinders, and flakes of fire, from which a strong
smell of sulphur emanates.

Madrid papers of the 2d have arrived.
The Address was carried in the Chamber of Depu-
ties by a majority of 124 to 46, after an animated
discussion, in the course of which Senor OLozAGA
promised NARYAEZ the support of the Progressista
party so long as he should adhere to, and fully
carry out, the principles he had enunciated in his
programme.

MADRID BoLsA, DEC. 2.—The Three per Cents. were
done at 26i at 50 days ; the Five per Cents., at 15j
for paper; the Debt without Interest, at 4i- ; and the
Coupons, at 10k.

We have received the Paris papers of Wednesday.
M. GUIZOT is evidently puzzled how to act with
regard to Switzerland. The French Minister may
say, with regard to the President of the Diet, "If
I had known he had been so cunning of fence I would
have seen him hanged ere I had meddled with him',
The following article from the Journal des Debats is
written in the true Aguecheek vein :
" What first of all strikes one in the note is, that it is
addressed to the President of the Diet, and to the Pre-
sident of the Council of War in the Sonderbund, so
that, in the eyes of the Powers, the two parties present
themselves with equal rights. 'The Powers do not re
cognise, as the Radical majority pretended, on one side
the Diet, that is, the regular and legal Government of
the country, and on the other the rebels. No; they be-
hold legal Switzerland in the Sonderbund as much as in
the majority, or perhaps even more. This point being
aduiittted, there follows several consequences, which
every one can understand. As to the past, it gives to
the acts that have taken place their veritable significa-
tion, and are precisely contrary to that which the
Radicals desired to attach to them ; as to the future, it
will serve as a rule to the Powers, and will guide them
in the choice of the arrangements which they intend to
recommend to Switzerland, in order to put an end to the
sanguinary differences which tear that country to pieces.
But persons exclaim, the Sonderbund no longer exists ;
it is vanquished. Undoubtedly ; but, after defeat,
right still subsists. The cantons of the Sonderbund
have yielded to force ; but the sentiment of right pro-
tests in every heart of that oppressed minority, It is
this right which the powers take under their protection
before the whole civilized world. They cannot do any-
thing now relative to the issue of the war, but they
can do much with respect to the consequences which
are only too eagerly attempted to be drawn from it.
Thus, with a common accord, they lay down an
important principle, which, under present circum-
stances, is the most precious guarantee that the con-
quered cantons can desire—via., that no modification

can be made in the. compact without the unanimous
assent of all the cantons. The compact is a contract
which binds all the 22 sovereign states of Switzerland,
and it is an elementary rule that a contract cannot be
modified but with the consent of all the parties concerned
in it. The
,Powers, therefore, only proclaim and take
under their safeguard a principle of common right. The
Powers besides, to make this declaration, possess a double
quality, which cannot be contested. On the one hand,

they are parties to the contract which admitted Switzer-
land iu 1815 into the European order, with the advan-
tage of its neutrality being guaranteed by them; and
on the other, they are guarantees of the independence
of each of the 22 cantons composing the Confederation.
The majority of the Diet has, therefore, nothing to
oppose to this part of the note. However,. if we
are not mistaken, it is that which will thwart their
dearest projects. That they are desirous of modify-
ing the compact is not a secret for any one, not-
withstanding certain official denials. The Powers
warn them that they cannot do so except in re-
specting the cantonal sovereignty, and in giving the
most positive and most effective proof of that respect.
It is evident tbat if they have done nothing to prevent
the victory of the Radical majority, they are determined
to prevent this victory from being fatal to the van-
quished. These two points appear to us to sum up the
essential dispositions of the note; first, the right is denied
to the majority of declaring themselves the Diet, the

legal authority; and next it is declared that they must
not meddle with the independence of the cantons. It is
the five great Powers, France, England, Austria, Prussia.
and Russia, who employ this firm language to Switzer-
land. This imposing unanimity will have, we trust, a
salutary influence over the approaching determination
of the Diet. As to us, it is impossible not to behold
with a sincere satisfaction the great Powers of Europe,
and England in particular, in accord with our Govern-
ment, in attempting a mediation for the purpose of at
last pacifying the Helvetic Confederation. It is to be
remarked, that if the tone of the note is firm, it is also
amicable. No one wishes to wound the just suscep-
tibilities of this small and interesting republic, and
France, in particular, will always consider it important
to live in good intelligence with it."

The Cetistitutionnel says—
" If Switzerland shall not accept the offer made to it
is the note transmitted to it by M. Bois le Comte, what
resolution will M. Guizot pretend to suggest to the five
Powers ? Will he draw up some new piece of eloquence
to address anew to Switzerland counsels which will be
again politely disregarded ? Does he propose to enter
with arms into Switzerland, to cause the principle that
the Pact shall not be revised if the cantons are not
unanimous to prevail for the future ? Are they
speeches or soldiers which he counts in the present
state of things to send to the twenty-two cantons ? The
more one examines the invention of M. Guizot, the more
one finds in it an inexhaustible stock of absurdity and
ridicule. Decidedly M. Guizot has just accomplished a
chef d' ceuvr e which will immortalise his presidency, and
cause laughter to the most distant posterity."
The severity of these remarks consists in their
truth. M. GUIZOT has placed himself in a position
to be laughed at, and the man who has once rendered
himself ridiculous is, in France, ruined as a public
character for ever.

M, GUIZOT may, however, perchance, " screw his
courage to the sticking place," and, notwithstanding
the lukewarmness of Austria, the neutrality of
Prussia, and the opposition of England, may,
by one last and desperate effort, " one alone,"
and single-handed, attempt an intervention in the
affairs of Switzerland This would be the bold and
decided method. As the National justly asks him—
" Why do you pause? Do you not comprehend that
this overflow of abuse is the most silly of hostilities ?
Come, have the courage to act according to your
hatred; the question is only to put down Radicalism,
and in so small a country as Switzerland! Two
millions of souls! an army of 150,000 men, and
scarcely any money ! The heroism of M. GIJISOT
may be exercised cheaply. Let him then try the ad-
venture ! Let him demand from France her gold and
her men for this glorious expedition !":
There will be a grand reform dinner at St. Denis on
the 14th. The Deputy for the arrondissement, M.FER-
DINAND DE LASTEYRIE, will preside, and among the
guests will be MM. DUPONT (de l'Eure), ARAGO,
MARIE, GARNIER PAGES, BARROT, LAMARTINE,
DUVERGIER DE HAURANNE, LHERBETTE LASTEYRIB
the elder.

The Ministerial candidate at Belfort, General
%LEONE; has been elected by a majority of 84 over
M. ROME, the Opposition candidate—the numbers
being, for General BELLONET 191, for M. ROSSEE
107. This victory, however, is but a poor compen-
sation. for the severe check which the Ministry has
received in Paris, where on the election of twelve
candidates, from whom the KIN; is to choose the
mayor and deputy mayor of the second arrondisse-
ment, eleven Opposition candidates were returned,

and the twelfth was within six of gaining the actual
majority, polling 125 votes:above the highest Minis-
terial candidate. But this is not the extent of the
Ministerial humiliation. M. BERGER, the friend of
M. TRIERS, is particularly obnoxious to the Cabi-
net, and the greatest efforts were made to prevent
his obtaining a majority. He, however, was re-
turned at the head of the poll ; and in order to
secure his appointment to the office of mayor, his
eleven colleagues have agreed to refuse to serve if
appointed.

QUEEN'S BENCH.—(THIS DAY.)
Sittings at Nisi Prins in Guildhall.
(Before Mr. Justice ERLE, and a Common Jury.)
WATEEN V. VAUGHAN.
This was an action to recover the sum of 691., being
the amount of an attorney's bill of costs. The defendant
was an extensive builder, and some months ago he
applied to Mr. Dickson, a solicitor, practising in the
City, to negotiate a loan on mortgages to the extent of
42,0001. Mr. Dickson, however, was unable to raise the
money himself, and therefore as the agent of the de-
fendant he retained the plaintiff, who was also an attor-
ney to piocure it, but the security at the disposal of the
defendant was not sufficiently attractive to induce any
capitalist to advance the 42,000 Z Still the plaintiff did
his best to procure the funds, and this action was brought
to reimburse the plaintiff the costs he had paid out of
pocket as well as to remunerate him for the trouble he
had been put to in the course of the transaction.
Mr. Ijickson proved that the defendant invested him
with full and unlimited authority to raise the funds in
any manner he thought proper, and without any agree-
ment as to costs or remuneration.
For the defence it was contended that a special con-
tract was made with Mr. Dickson, and the business was
undertaken by him upon the understanding of "no cure
no pay. In fact, it was alleged that the arrangement
made between the parties was, that if Mr. Dickson suc-
ceeded 4n procuring the 42,0001. he was to be paid a
bonus. f 5001., but if he failed he was to receive
nothing.
Two tvitneEses were called to prove the defence.
Mr. Justice ERLE said it was purely a question for
the jurj,i to determine as to whom the credit for truth
was dila.
The jury, without a moment's hesitation, returned a
verdict for the plaintiff.

EXCHEQTJER.-(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings at Guildhall, before the LORD CnIEF BARON and
Common Juries.)
At the sitting of the Court this morning a large
number. of undefended causes were disposed of. Several
cases which were set down for defended were also dis-
posed of, but none of them presented any feature of public
importance.

BANKRUPTCY.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Commissioner SHEPHERD.)
IN RE LAWRENCE.
The bankrupt had carried on business as a grocer in
Regent-street and Ealing, and to-day was appointed for
his last examination, which he passed without opposition.
An application was made for a summons for the at-
tendance of the bankrupt's wife, to give evidence as to a
debt on which the bankrupt had been sued.
His HONOUR said he did not see how he could grant a
summons for such a purpose.
The SOLICITOR said that it was alleged that the debt
was due by the wife, who was milliner to her Majesty,
and had carried on business as a femme sole. She had
kept the books, and it was impossible for them to elicit
the facts unless she could be examined. The fact was,
that a settlement had been made on her, and she was
liable; at all events, it ought to have been a joint action.
The Learned COMMISSIONER said that under the cir-
cumstances he would grant the summons.

SECONDARIES.-(THIS DAY.)
There was only one case set down for hearing, but it
was not of the slightest interest.

CLERKENWELL.-(TH-IS DAY).
William Williamson, a retired licensed victualler, and
James Mandate, potman at the Broad Arrow, Chiswell-
street, were charged, the latter with stealing a 10L note,
and the former with receiving it, well knowing it to have
been stolen.

It appeared that a Mr. Charles Rutland, went with a
friend into the Broad Arrow public-house, and after
having some refreshment at the bar Mr. Rutland took
out his purse, when he dropped the 101. note under his
seat. He left the house without being aware of his loss,
and when he became conscious of it he put an advertise-
meet into the papers stating the loss, and °Mr-
ing a " handsome " reward for its restora-
tion. The same day the prisoner Williamson
called upon him and said he had a clue as to where the
note was, but he knew it would not be returned by the
party having it, unless he was paid til. An information
was then given to the police, when it was ascertained
that Mandale had picked up and handed it over to
Villiarnson.
The, prisoner denied any felonious intention, and Wil-

iamson said he merely accepted the note for safety
until an owner could be found, and in order that Man-
dale, who was a simple minded fellow, might not be
wronged in the transaction.
Mr. TYRwHirr committed the prisoners for trial.

INSTITUTION FOR THE ADULT
DEAF AND DUMB.—(THIS DAY.)
An extraordinary general meeting of the governors
and friends of the above institution was held at the
chapel of the establishment, 26, Red Lion-square,
Bloomsbury, this forenoon, for the purpose of deciding
whether the committee should petition the corporation
of the City of London, with the view of obtaining aisis-
tance towards carrying on the objects of the charity and
on other business.
WILLIAM EVANS, Esq., M.P., occupied the chair.
After the transaction of some preliminary business,
nd take the chair at
that he had been
parTthiceulCairryAlßrAN requestedp proceeded cteoe daetdt e tnod s
aa
the meeting, and he had done so with great pleasure,
although, fur the good of the charity he was advocating,
he could have wished some gentleman of greater ability
and influence had been selected. It was surely sufficient
to he deprived of the power of utterance and hearing,
without being left destitute upon the wide world; he
(the Chairman) need therefore say very little of the great
advantages which that institution heldout to the afflicted
class to which it had reference. If he pictured to him-
self a person deaf and dumb from his birth, he could not
imagine how such a creature could have any ideas of
general wordly matters, or of the existence of a
Supreme Being, and yet in that institution he found
that instead of being in a state of deplorable and
helpless ignorance, they were in a fair way
of becoming honest and useful members of
society, able not only to communicate their
ideas and understand the truths of the Scripture,
but also by the trades which had been taught them in'
the asylum they would be competent to support them-
selves by their own industry. lle (the Chairman) him-
self knew a lady in Devon, who, from her own bene-
volence, established a school for the deaf and dumb;
she engaged her own masters, and it was conducted by
her personal superintendence, and what was the result
in the course of a short time? Why, everybody was
astonished at the proofs of understanding evinced by
the inmates. If, then, the deaf and dumb, by kindness
and attention, are capable of receiving such instruction
they should not be left untaught and unprovided for; and
yet by a calculation founded upon the best authority, he
(the Chairman) found that there was not less than
14,000 deaf and dumb in this kingdom, wholly destitute,
and without the means of attaining ideas upon any sub-
ject whatever. He (the Chairman) regretted to say that
the institution which he was advocating—so thoroughly
charitable in its object, and so benevolent in its details,
was in debt to the extent of four or five hundred pounds.
Towards the liquidation of this debt it was proposed to
memorialize the Corporation of the City of London,
and he doubted not that the noble character and pro-
verbial liberality of that body would not be withheld
upon so urgent an occasion.
J. G. SIMPSON, Esq., having read the report and a
draft of the memorial, resolutions were passed to the
effect that the petition should be adapted.
The routine business having transpired, thanks were
voted to the Chairman, a compliment which was briefly
acknowledged, and the meeting separated.
Nearly twenty males and females, deaf and dumb (who
are at present inmates of the charity), were present, and
their general looks evinced the care taken by the charity
in their management and general instruction.

ADELPIII TRZATRE.-Mr. Sterling Coyne has sup-
plied this theatre with another 'of his amusing farces,
the success of which has been of the usual decisive kind.
The name of the. present extravagance is A Tipperary
Legacy, !therein Mr. Wright personates a Bristol dyer,
who having gone to take possession of an Irish estate,
the " Tipperary legacy," has not been heard of for some
time, leading his friends to believe that he has been
murdered by his tenantry. The absentee, however,
suddenly returns, having been frightened away from
his property by *the threats of a local ruffian, much to
the annoya9ce di his nephew, who 'had hoped by his
death to gain possession of a certain young lady to whom
his uncle bad been betrothed. In order, therefore, to
worry the unwelcome landlord, the nephew induees a
low comedian of the Bristol Theatre to personify the
ruffian in question, and dog the steps of his relative—
the drollery of the farce consisting chiefly in the terrors
of the perplexed legatee. and his endeavours to throw
the supposed Irishman off the scent by denying his own
identity. It will easily be conceived that Wright makes
a great deal of fun out of these materials, and that Mr.
Paul Bedford, who enacts the comedian, avails himself
to the utmost of his prescriptive licence to vamp and
"gag." Mr. Munyard, who plays the nephew, is like-
wise a liberal contributor to the general merriment.
In the manufacture of pieces of this description—
" screamers," as they have been characteristically termed
—Mr. Sterling Coyne has no competitor; and where is
the audience that can resit his comic outrages upon
sense and probability?

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was dull,
but at former prices. Sales 2,500 bales. Railway
shares were firm, but there was not much doing.
There are no later arrivals to-day, and matters gene-
sally wear a quiet appearance.
The suspension of the firm of C. de Bruyn and Sons,
of Amsterdam, it is sincerely hoped, from the tenor
of the accounts received this morning, will not
prove a " bad affair;" as regards the ultimate
realisation of assets. It is said that the
debts amount to about two and a quarter millions of
florins, which is less than was supposed, and that the
assets are about one million of florins in excess thereof.
This surplus, however, is represented in part by the
plant, &c., valued at less than half the cost, and by
shares in several large companies. There seems but
little doubt that the firm will have time al-
lowed it to wind up its affairs, the credi-
tors not being disposed to offer any ob-
stacle, while, in several instances, they have al-
ready taken up the bills of Messrs. de Bruyn, where
such had been discounted.
The Corn Market is steady to• day.
A simple but apparently ingenious plan for ascertain-
ing the position of any mercantile firm, has been devised
by Mr. G. H. Boulter, an accountant. We are told that
the.great convenience which a merchant would expe-
rience from any method by which he could ascertain his
assets, liabilities, gains, losses, and present worth, either
daily, weekly, or otherwise, without tho tedious process
of balancing his ledger, has induced the author to devise
the plan. Its chief merit is its simplicity, as it requires
no material alteration in the present mode of conducting
counting-house business. The only alteration (though
not absolutely necessary) is in the day-book, which
must be ruled with four money columns. Two
of these columns, called collectively balance, are
devoted to assets and liabilities, while the other
two are reserved for losses and gains. All business
transactions are entered as usual, but the amounts are
always entered in two columns. A single example, with
an inspection of the day-book, will show the book-
keeper the principle of the proposed plan. The amount
SOW. in the second transaction.
" Merchandise Dr. to cash for purchases per invoice,
3001., would be entered in the ledger on the Debtor side
of "Merchandise," and the Creditor side of " Cash."
Now the Debtor side of " Merchandise " shows losses,
while the Creditor side of " Cash " shows liabilities ;
therefore, according to our new method the 300/. is
entered among the liabilities and also among the
losses. Each transaction is treated in the same
way, and at the close of the day or week, the amount of
goods on hand is entered, and the four columns are
added up. The smaller sum on either side is then de-
ducted from the larger, and the equality of the two pro-
ducts proves the correctness of the work. The other
operations of book-keeping then proceed in the usual
manner. This plan is also applicable to single entry, but
only the two columns for assets and liabilities are re-
quired. This principle can be accommodated to the
transactions of all businesses. For, example, the ordi-
nary day-book maybe used, and the amounts carried
daily into another book, ruled with the four columns
only."

Although money is scarcer to-day in the Stock Ex.
change, owing to the delivery of stock sold a day or two
since because of the closing this afternoon of the
transfer books, the quotations are generally well sup-
ported, and there are but few speculative sales. Consols
have been 841 forjpresent Transfer, and 86-1 for
January. Bank Stock is worth 1881. Exchequer-bills
are 4s. to 7s. premium, and East India Bonds 20s. to
