Perhaps a knowledge of these truths, if they will but
learn 7the.n, would induce them to give up these
foolish and unmeaning processions. A plantation of
two centuries ought to become racy of the soil. It
is time the Orangemen of Ulster should forget their
foreign ancestry, and remember the rich and
interesting land of their birth. It is time
they should feel they are now and for
ever Irish. It is time they should join the true and
loyal in a glorious effort to raise their prostrate
country. If they will do this none will more heartily
rejoice than we shall; if they will not—if they will
still keep alive the recollection of old feuds, that lead
to strife and blood, none will more loudly call down
upon them the strong arm of the law. Dissension
must cease in the land, the days of an unjust ascen-
dancy are passed away for ever. Orangeman and
Ribbonman must alike understand that Ireland is in
future to be governed by equal laws and equal rights,
without distinction of sect, or class, or creed. After
centuries of misrule Irish legislation has taken a
step in the right direction. Let us hope, then, iden-
tity of interests will combine all Irishmen in the
bonds of peaceful brotherhood for the benefit of their
common country. By such a holy union they would
secure the blessings from GOD and justice from man ;
heal the wounds of their bleeding country, and
bring peace, content, and happiness to their hearths
and homes.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.
The trials at Versailles seem to excite scarcely any
interest.

The split between the PRESIDENT of the Republic
and the Legitimatists is said to be complete. The
PRESIDENT, who has become completely aware of
their intrigues has, it is said, resolved to expel
them altogether from his councils.
The Constitutionnel has a furious attack on the
Debats on account of the publication by the latter
of the proceedings before the committee on the
affairs of Rome. It is evidently from the pen of M.
TRIERS, and would seem to prove the existence of
some still further split in the ranks of the reac-
tionaries :

" The Journal des Debats which, as its antecedents ex-
plain, is a 11-tter Republican than we, yesterday published
an account which is perfectly incorrect, of what took place
in the committee on the credits for the Roman expedi-
tion. There is in its recital one of those underhand
attacks which it too often directs, no one knows why,
against one of the most energetic defenders of society.
One may not partake in the opinions of M. Thiers ; btu
it is to do more wrong to oneself than to him to impute
to him ridiculous opinions. This, nevertheless, is what
the Debate does in its report of the proceedings of the
committee. The words which it puts in the mouth of
M. Thiers are ridiculously false, and we have ❑o neces-
sity to affirm that that gentleman did not utter a word
of what it imputes to him. Besides, an opportunity will
soon present itself for hearing what he has to say on the
subject, and it will be seen that what he said, instead of
being a foolish exaggeration, is marked by truth and
good sense. We warn the Debuts that the member of
the committee who furnished it the information has been
guilty of two things—falsehood and breach of faith; for
he has stated what did not occur, and he had, like all
the other members of the committee, engaged himself
not to reveal what took place during a discussion with
closed doors."

M. DE TOCQUEVILLE, the Minister for Foreign
Affairs, gave a public assurance yesterday that he
had received no intelligence from Naples of the
occurrence of any disturbances, neither did he en-
tertain any apprehensions that any such had occurred.
Count LADISLAS TELEKL has addressed the follow-
ing letter to the editor of the Dix Decembre, in
answer,to, the attacks upon the Hungarians which have
recently appeared in that journal :
" Monsieur,—ln your publication of Oct. 4, I find the
following words:—' Is it this Hungary, so little worthy
of her heroes, that all Europe would have supported
with transports of holy enthusiasm, had she addressed
herself to what constitutes the true strength of Europe,
the party of order and of progress ? Is it the fault of
the President of the Republic, if the letters addressed to
the Government by the Hungarians were only the mis
interpretation and the reverse of those proviouOy ad
dressed to the red committees, who were consulted and
supplicated before France?'

`I-As regards Hungary, I desire not to discuss the
question whether or not she is worthy of her heroes.
Hungary, Monsieur, has laid herself bare in the face of
the world. The world has seen her struggling and
bleeding. The world knows what she has been. A
constitution has existed for eight centuries; that consti-
tution has maintained itself amidst great vicissitudes; it
has equally resisted the invasions of barbarism and the
encroachments of despotism. It has developed itself in
accordance with the spirit of the present age, and that
without disorder, without popular risings, without dan.
gerous symptoms of any kind. Had this constitution
♦itality, or, regarding the very interests of civilization,
was it to be overthrown ? A nation had arisen as one
man for the defence of her time-hallowed institutions, of
her laws, and of her legally guaranteed independenee.
She triumphed over one powerful enemy; she has bete
the victim of a coalition of two great powers. Was this
a nation of cowards, or of revolutionists ? Was this a
nation to be crushed, to be deprived of the inheritance
of her fathers, and this in the interest of a society based
upon family and property ? The question will sooe be
answered, if indeed it be not already answered.
"Truth, Monsieur, will come to light, will dissipate
unjust impediments, and Hungary will be judged of as
she has been, and not as people shall have wished to
make her appear. Those are strong, Monsieur, who are
without reproach;and who have the right to stand before
the pen of history within sight of that other immortality
whose view, though it gives no consolation, gives repose.
No; what concerns Hungary in the above passage cannot
form the subject of any opp tiition on my part. Foe
the rest, there is but one opinion. But it is not so as
regards me personally. It is evident that if the letters
addressed to the Government by the Hungarians were
only the misinterpretation and the reverse of those pre-
viously addressed to the red committees who were con-
sulted and supplicated before France,' as is asserted in
the article in question, it is I alone who am responsible.
because I was the sole representative of the Hungarian
Government in France; and if the Hungarians deserve
to be taxed with duplicity and mat:teeming in their
relations with France, there can be but one guilty party,
and that one must be myself. This, therefore, is an ac-
cusation from which it is necessary for me to clear my-
self; and you will allow me to ask upon what it is
founded. All that I have said, and all I have written,
siege I came to France, could tend but to one end—that
of bringing out the Hungarian question in its true light,
and of showing Hungary as I know her to be, attached
to her past, strong in her good right, and the champion
of loyalty, order, and true liberty. I have sought to ar-
rive at this result by means of notes addressed to the
Government and by publications; but I have never ad-
dressed myself to committees of any party. I have al-
ways felt that I ought and could address myself only to

the Government add to France; and I accept the respon-
sibility of every one of nay words. Let a single one be
cited against me in proof of duplicity, and of intercourse
with party committees, a victus daLo manus. But,
meanwhile, you will allow me, Monsieur, to affirm re-
solutely that the accusation is without foundation.—

SPAIN.
Madrid journals of the 6th have arrived.
The following decree bringing into force the new
tariff appears in the Gageta :
" Art. 1. The customs tariff, which accompanies this
decree, reformed on the bases of the law of the 17th
July last, and iu which are included the articles of the
cotton manufactures fixed by Art. 2 of the same law, is
approved of. Art. 2. For the present, and without pre-
judice to what may hereafter be determined, the said
articles of cotton manufactures shall be admitted into the
Peninsula and the Balearic Islands by the following
maritime custom. houses:—St. Sebastian, Santander, Co-
runna, Cadiz, Malaga, Almeria, Carthagena, Alicante,
'Valencia, Barcelona, Palma, and Mahon. Art. 3. The
customs depots or non-prohibited goods which now
exist are preserved, with the exception of those
which do not yield sufficient to cover their
expenses. The depot duty shall remain as at pre-
sent fixed. Art. 4. In conformity with clause 5 of the
law, there shall be established in the ports of Uorunna,
Casliz, and Mahon, general entrepots of goods. Art. 5.
Ia order that the dispositions of the new tariff may come
into effnt in all the custom-houses, the following periods
are fixed from the (late of the publication of the royal
decree in the Madrid Gazette :—Fifteen days for the
export tariffs ; a month for the importation of cotton
goods, from whatever part they may arrive; two months
for the general tariff applied to the productions of

ITA L Y.

The Grand Duke of TUSCANY will, it is said, pub-
lish an amnesty on his retur❑ to Florence from
Vienna. GUERRAZZI will be included in this am-
nesty, from which, however, MONTANELLI, MAZZONI,
and MARMOCCIII will be excluded. The Tuscan loan
is concluded with a Dutch house for 25,000,000 livres,
at 51.
Dr. MILLaNGEN, an English physician, has
been forced to quit Rome, nominally because,
residing at Albano, he bad, in common with
every other inhabitant of that place, been
compelled to serve as a National Guard,
but in reality because of his endavours to recover the
children of his brother from a seminary and a nun-
nery, into which they had been kidnapped, and where
they were detained by order of the Vicar-General,
avowedly to prevent their being brought up by their
father in the Protestant faith.

The Minister of Finance, GALLI, has given notice
that the Government intends to resume the payment
of the half yearly dividends due on Roman Consols,
and fixes the days for the holders of different aerie:,
to apply for the money.
Letters from Naples of the Ist announce the arrest
of RUGGIERO, who was Finance Minister in the
BORELLI Ministry. These letters make no mention
of the occurrence of any outbreak at Naples.

FINSBURY REGISTRATION.
(THIS DAY.)
Francis Bayley, E-q., the Barrister appointed to re-
vise the list of voters for the borough of Finsbury, held
his Court to-day in Lincoln's Inn. The Learned Gen-
tleman sat in the Vice-Chancellor of England's Court,
and was occupied the whole morning with receiving the
lists of the different parties in the borough. There are
very few objections, claims, or corrections to be made in
the lists, and the proceedings appear to excite no
interest, except among overseers and parish officers.

BANKRUPTCY.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Commissioner SHEPHERD.)
A FLAW IN THE NEW ACT.—The new Bankruptcy.
Act came into operation this morning, and several pe-
titions were filed in accordance with it. In the course
of the morning his Honour observed that there was a
most important omission in one of the clauses, which di-
rected that the bankrupt should be examined on his
declaration in lieu of an oath, but did not give any
power of commitment in the event of his rousing to
make the declaration. All that the Commissioner could
do was to refuse the certificate.
Mr. COOKE said that the making the declaration was
precedent to any proceeding by the bankrupt, and that
he was bound to take it.
His HONOUR said it was very true that the refusal to
comply with the Act of Parliament was an indictable
offence.
MUSIC AT RAMSGATE.—IN RE WEBB.—The bank-
rupt was described as of Albion-place, Ramsgate, music
seller. The debts amount to 450 L, assets nil.
Mr. BEARD, clerk to Mr. Buchanan, now applied for
bankrupt to be allowed to pass his last examination.
The bankrupt's losses had principally been on two con-
certs he had given. By one, in 1848, he lost 701., and
in 1849, 631.
There was no opposition, and the bankrupt pasted.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 20,000 bales, iccluding 1,000 American and
4,000 Brazil on speculation. Compared with Friday's
rates, prices of American are id. to id. per lb., Brazil
nearly as much, and Surat and Egyptian id. per lb.
dearer. The sales comprised 8,000 American, 10,000
Brazil, at 6d. to Cid.; 1,000 Egyptian, at 6d. to 6id.;
600 Surat, at 41d. to 414.; and 300 Sea Island, at 11d.
to Is. 3d. per lb. The market closed tamely for short
staples, but firm for other sorts.—ln Railway Shares a
limited business was done, and prices had a downward
tendency.

The Corn Market is steady to-day. The arrivals are
small of foreign grain, if we except wheat.
There is again no foreign intelligence of interest in a
commercial point of view, but we may mention, by the
way, that the idea propagated with respect to the pro.
bable adhesion of Hamburgh to the Zoliverein is
not deemed of much weight in the best in-
formed circles here. Indeed, we have had
the opportunity this morning of conversing with a gen.
tleman who has just re turned from Frankfort, and who,
by the way, describes trade as being very active, and the
result is, that the step is much more unlikely than many
would have us infer. Tho salvation of Hamburgh de-
pends upon its adherence to free trade principle.,
and we shall see if its magnificent foreign com-
merce will be lightly thrown to the winds,
merely for the doubtful advantage of conciliating the
duty-ridden states that surround it.
The quantity of produce offered this week at the
public sales has been moderate, but to-day more is
pressing on the market, and there has throughout
been a disposition to sell. This is especially
the case with Coffee, which is decidedly lower.
The articles most in favour have been Cotton
and Indigo, and in the former the specula-
tion bas been excessive, and such as to lead to the ins.
preesion that a reaction must occur. The manufac-
turers obviously cannot afford to pay such enhanced
values, unless they get much more for their goods.
The English Funds have been very quiet again, al-
though the Commissioners for the Savings' Banks hat!)
bought a little. Consols have been 924 4 for Transfer,
and the same for the next settling day. The New
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 924 to 4, and
the Three per Cents. 90+ to 91 ex dividend. Exchequer-
bills have been 41e. to 425. premium. Consols now are
about 92i 4.
In the Foreign Market the dealings have been limited.
Spanish Five per Cents. have been marked 164 to 4, and
Portuguese Four per Cents. are 304 4. Equador Stock
is 34. Danish Bonds are 99. Peruvian Stock has been
534. Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. are 87, and
Dutch Four per Cents. are 824, ex dividend.
For Railway Shares the market is not better. South.
Western have declined to 32 and 314, North-Western
are dull at 110 to 4, Midland have receded to 48 and
47, Great Western are heavy at 54 to 55, and ditto half
at 25} to 26. North British are a shade better. North
Stafford, Eastern Counties, &c., are all rather worse.
