LONDON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 8, Is4s.

During an interval of exactly three weeks and
three days the capital of Austria remained in the
possession of its inhabitants. Having discovered in
the councils of their SOVEREIGN, a treachery never
surpassed in its ruthless audacity, and scarcely ever
equalled in its deliberate atrocity, the Jpopulation of
Vienna rose in one grand outburst of unanimity, and
cc ared both the despot himself and his
miserable accomplices from the Palace of Schon-
brunn. The cause of this great movement was
patent to the whole of Europe. The treachery of the
Imperial Government was not by any means con-
jectural ; it was as flagrant in character as it was
visible in its operation. After having yielded to the
necessity of the age, after having dismissed
Merreaelcu, in obedience to the will of the
multitude, after having proclaimed the Free
Constitution which had been extorted from the
Em"Thon by the will of upwards of thirty
sixty millions of human beings, FSRDINAND and his
accomplices belied the oathswhich they had sworn
to the people in the presence of the GOD of Heaven—
they began
to plot in secret against the newly
acquired liberty of the A trin
—they perjured
themselves for the gratification of their own despicable
vengeance, and for the purpose, if
retrogression
of effecting
to the
a speedy and paramount
diabolical cause of Absolutism. o this
directed all their energies to the revival of
tyranny
in the more remote provinces of the empire. At the
very time when they were professing the most
liberal sentiments and the most constitutional print
eiples to the Viennese, the Imperial conspirators
were beating down with the bludgeon of martial law
the young and aspiring nationality of the Hungarians ;
they were poisoning the fountain-head of the
rights and immunities of the great race of
the Magyars; they were strangling in the
grasp of RADETZET the new-born freedom of the
Lombards and Venetians. The Viennese recognised
all these atrocious proceedings on the part of their
Government ; they appreciated the inconsistency of
the Imperial councils ; they perceived the appalling
incongruity existing between the acts and the
professions of the Administration ; they ar-
gued that the conquest of the Lombards
and the Hungarians was only preliminary to the
assassination of their own independence and the
elevrivation of their own inestimable privileges ; they
:Llready detected, in fact, the appearance of a retrograde
policy as regarded themselves and the surrounding
population ; they knew that so soon as the external
divisions of the empire should be reduced to submis-
sion, that the mercenaries of ACIRSPERG, and of
ItADETZKT, and of JELLACUICII, and:of WINDISCII-
GRATZ, would be concentrated upon ;the capital,
and that under the intimidation of those im-
P >sing forces the new order of things would
bei abolished, and the ancien regime of
despotism ,be rigorously restorsi. These things, we
r
ePeat, were not merely conjectural—they were

The Avon arrived at Southampton this morning,
with dates from Jeri/Ilea to the Bth. She brings
one million dollars from Chagres. The Avon broke
down just as she left Faye!. At Hayti the President
had pardoned a great many persons ; several were
shot, however, at Jacmel, on the 2d October. -
Sir Charles Grey, Governor of Jamaica, had re-
covered from the effects of his accident.
Commerce at Jamaica was a little more active; but
great distress prevailed throughout the island.
At Aux Cayes the President had it in contempla-
tion to monopolise the purchase of the coffee crop,
and then to resell it, half the revenue to be divided
with France, according to the late treaty, which is
to commence January Ist, 1849. This has operated,
and will operate, as a check upon importation of
goods, until the views of the French Government
upon the subject shall become known. The great
hurricane did much damage at Nassau and the Great
Bahama.

The accounts from the Frankfort Bourse state that
the funds bad advanced on the news from Vienna. At
Amsterdam, by the last report, there was not much ac-
tivity, but prices remained steadily supported.
The recognition by Great Britain of the Republic
of Liberia has just been announced, and a treat}
of com-
merce is understood to have been arranged. This state
was founded by the American Colonization Society in
-
1890, and continued as a colony under the care of that
body until last year, when it was formed into an inde-
pendent government. A similar recognition has also
been obtained from France.

• REMEDY FOR RAILWAY
DEPRECIATION.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
Sta,—About ten days ago I had prepared a table
showing the highest and, lowest prices of railway
shares, from the boiling point of 1845 to the zero of
1848, and the depreciation in each case cons-queotly
following. The table I proposed submitting for your
approval, but the sudden alteration which took place
at the time induced the. 'to withdraw it. If, however,
• any of your readers, ok any other persons, suppose
that the danger is past and gone, and that all they
have now in prospect is gradual but certain improve-
ment of their railway property, I would beg to warn
such persons that the very root and essence of the
mischief still exists in all its ruinous power. Ido
not deny but that a great deal of harm has been done
by that class of men who have been justly held up to
public odium by yourself -and the journalists ; I mean
the "Bears" of the Stock-Exchulge. This is a sys-
tem so iniquitous that the man who can put, it dowis
:will deserve well of his country; but, after looking
at the matter in all its " bearings," I confess I do not
see any available remedy. If the public should
cease to support the. present Stock Exchange, the
" Bears" and " Bulls" would have one of their own,
where they would not only worry and gore each
other alternately, as at present, but inflict at least
indirect injury upon the public outside.
I apprehend, Sir, that it is the existing state of
;hings which furnishes .means to these ferocious

CLERKEIV WELL.

John Westfield, a respectably-dressed middle-aged
man, was placed at the bar before Mr. Tyrwhitt, charged
by Miss Elizabeth Wood, of No. 7, Tottenham.place,
Kingsland, with having indecently assaulted her, &c.
The prosecutrix said that she was residing with her
mother, in Tottenham-place. The prisoner, who is a
married man, with a family, about seven weeks ago took
apartments in the house, representing himself as a man
of property. During his residence in the house he had
several times returned home intoxicated, and behaved
himself in a most unbecoming manner to her and some
other females in the house; but they declined prosecut-
ing him in consideration of his wife and children. On
the previous day the prisoner again came home in liquor,
and went to bed. About two hours subsequently witness
was in the parlour dozing in the arm chair, when she
was roused by some one touching her shoulder, and on
looking aside she saw the prisoner with his person ex
posed in a most indecent manner, whilst he made use of
language which is unfit for publication.
Mr. TYRWHITT asked the prisoner what he had to
say to the charge? He did not deny it, saying it was
the first time he had ever been charged with any offence
before a magistrate, and he appealed to the Court to deal
leniently with him.
Mr. TYRWHITT said that the touching the prosecutrix
constituted an assault under the circumstances, and he
considered it a fit case to be sent before a jury for trial;
but at present he should remand the prisoner.

Mr. Sergeant SHEE moved for a rule to increase
damages. The plaintiff is a merchant in London, and
the defendant mate of a vessel celled the Indian Chief,
who agreed to carry for the plaintiff 150 tierces of beef
and other provisions. They arrived in the river, and it
was discovered that they were damaged, which the plain-
tiff alleged arose from the imperfect mode of stowage.
The damages were laid at 71/.

cutor and his friend, who we-ro most anxi,lus to get
out of the house, consented, and the latter went to pro-
cure it. During his absenc,s the female prisoner suddenly
pinioned the prosecutor, and calling the male prisoner
" Tom," told him to take the prosecutor's watch, which
he immediately set about doing. The prosecutor offered
a stout resistance, and retained his hold of the watch as
long as he could, but was overpowerod, and it was taken
from him with so much violence that the seals and key
were broken off the chain by which they were attached
to the watch, the male prisoner, during the struggle,
biting the prosecutor, in order to make him loose his hold
of the property. The female prisoner then threw the pro-
secutor down, and held him while her companion escaped
with his booty. She then ran nut, but was met by a con-
stable at the door, who had been attracted by the prose-
cutor's cries of " Murder and police," who insisted upon
her accompanying him into the house, where the prose-
cutor gave her into custody. '[he male prisoner was at
large until the night of the 2d inst., when he was appre-
hended by Sergeant Loome, a very intelligent and active
officer of the B division.

Prosecutor stated that since the prisoners had been in
custody his watch had be n restored to him, accompa-
nied with a letter signed " Mary Ileak," requesting, i❑
the most earnest terms, that he would not go on with
the prosecution.
The female prisoner, who denied all knowledge of the
letter, contented herself with stating that her companion
was not the man who assisted her in the robbery.
The male prisoner said that he was not at the house at
the time of the robbery; that he knew nothing about it,
and added, " In the same house there's a cabman named
Tom, and why not him as well as me?"
The prisoners were committed for trial at the Central
Criminal Court.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.I

CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY.
Scarcely any English Wheat has arrived fresh up to
our market this meek, coastwise or by land carriage.
To-day the stands exhibited very few samples of either
red or white. From the want of supply very little busi-
ness was doing, but M nday's improvement in value was
well supported. , The imports of foreign Wheat have
exceeded 11,000 quarters. There was a slight improve-
ment in the demand for that article of grain. Some of
the importers refused to sell except at an advance of is
per quarter, which the dealers were unwilling to give.
All kinds, however, must be considered quite as dear.
The sale for Barley was slow, but we have no further
&cline to notice in value. The Oat trades was tolerably
steady, at fully Monday's quotations. Large supplies of
'oreign are close at hand. Beans, Peas, and Indian Corn
were dull in sale, but not cheaper. There was rather
more business doing in Flour, at ex. reme currencies.

ITALY.

The insurrection against the Austrian domination
continues to progress in the mountainous and lake
district of the north of Lombardy.
E Opinione of the C instant gives an account of the
steam boat on the Lake Maggiore having, under
Colonel D'AricE, disembarked 2,000 men, who drove
the Austrians from Lucino. This force then divided
itself into two parts, one, under APICE, marching to-
wards Como, and the other repairing to the moun-
tains. The Austrians retired upon Vorese. ALLOS.
TELYIO, at Riconi, cut in pieces a body of Croats.
The people are waiting for the assistance of the
Piedmontese to rise en masse. Twenty thousand
Austrians are obliged to be kept at Milan to hold
that town.

The Sardinian Ministry declared, in the sitting of
the Chamber of Deputies of Turin, on the 2d inst.,
that Sardinia would accept of no other mediation but
that of France and England.
The disturbances at Genoa have been completely
suppressed. The most perfect concord prevails be-
tween the troops and the National Guards.
From Rome we learn that Count Rossi, the
Minister of the Interior, issued the following procla-
mation on the 25th ult. :
" A handful of misled men, making a pretext of the
riot in which a Jew, who had struck a blow, was arrested,
have committed excesses we know not how to charac-
terise. Although not compromised by a mere threat of
further and more serious disturbance, the cause of public
security at once found, in the earnest concurrence of the
citizen guard and the army, all the aid and guarantee
required for inspiring the fullest and firmest confidence
in the present and in the future. The Government will
never suffer the laws and civilization to be insulted with
impunity. The Roman people will never cease to offer
to the world the most noble example of devotion to their
Sovereign, and their love for that true and honest liberty-
which never fails in respect for the laws.

" ROSSI."

A Novaurr.—The Lord Mayor's Procession to-
morrow will present a striking novelty, as compared
with previous spectacles of the 9th November. The
public are not generally aware that Sir JAMES
DUN N, in an early period of his life, served in the
Royal Navy, and was present at the memorable
battle of Algiers, under the command of Lord Ex-
mouth. On that stirring occasion, it is much more
likely Sir James expected a cannonball for his por-
tion, rather than dream of becoming Lord Mayor of
London ! As being probably the first naval
Lord Mayor, it is decided to grace the other
glories of the procession by the introduction
of a SHIP FULLY RIGGED AND MANICID ! on a car
drawn by six horses. This will be a rare novelty--
and still rarer if they were Sea horses 1

Another violent discnsiion took place in the sitting
of the United Diet on tle Bth, in consequence of the
Vice-President being called upon to reprimand HERR
BRENTANO for his disorderly conduct on the previous
day. The tumult rose again to such a height that
the Assembly was adjourned for one hour. When
the sitting was renew ?d, HERR BRENTANO as-
cended the tribune, anidst the cheers of the
persons assembled in the, public galleries ;
whereupon the Vice-President ordered " all
strangers" (including tie reporters) to withdraw.
Subsequently the latter were allowed to return, but
the motion, to admit the general public was negatived
by 380 to 91. An animated discussion then ensued
on the petition for a general amnesty for political
offenders. Finally, the Assembly voted the order of
the day, by a majority of 317 to 90; thus virtually
declaring against the amnesty.

PRUSSIA.

Berlin papers of the 9th have arrived.
A case of Asiatic cholera had been officially an-
nounced at Posen. The patient had, however,
survived.
The people of Berlin appear to be occupied more with
their local affairs, and particularly with the constable
question, than with the Danish question. That body
is becoming every day more and more unpopular, and
it is likely that in a few days the Constituent As-
sembly will either vote for the total dissolution of
that corps, or for a considerable restriction of its
powers.

SWITZERLAND.

Letters from Berne, dated the 4th, state that the
Diet has resolved to place 16,000 men on the fron-
tiers of Switzerland in order to guard against any
sudden irruption on the part of the Austrians, but
that it has refused to allow a French army to pass
through Switzerland, a request to that effect having
been made by the Duke of LITTA, a delegate from
the Provisional Government of Milan.

termination to abolish the Jewish impost and to in-

LOMBARDY.
Even to this moment we are without official con-
firmation of the capture of Milan by RADETZELT,
though of the fact of that capture there cannot re-
main, in any rational mind, one shadow of doubt.
Advices have indeed been received from Turin of the
7th, which confirm the news of the evacuation of
Milan by the Piedmontese army, in consequence of a
capitulation and the retirement of that army beyond
the Ticino.
Since the above paragraph was written—before the
ink is dry—the following official bulletin, published
on the 7th inst. in the Piedmontese Gazette, has
reached us:—
`°
The communications with the army are re•opened.
After the battle of the 4th his Majesty had shut himself
up in Milan, to decide its fate ; but seeing that the in-
creasing numbers of the enemy did not permit him to
make an indefinite resistance, and wishing to save that
town from the horror of being taken by assault or
famine, the King has left it, in virtue of a capitulation,
which guarantees life and property. to the Milanese.
Our army has retired behind the Ticino. Her Majesty
was yesterday at Magenta. We will make known to
the public, as soon as we have received them, the parti-
culars of tho operations of war of these latter days.
" The Minister of War, COLLEGNO.

" Turin, Aug. 7."
Great anxiety is naturally felt as to the explosion of
vengeance against the unfortunate Milanese imme-
diately the Austrians have secured their power in the
capital of Lombardy.
' The reports which we gave yesterday from the
Swiss journals of the ezieute at Milan on the sth, and
of the alleged measures to which CHARLES ALBERT
was driven, must be taken with much reserve. Mar-
shal RADETzKy had four divisions of his army, be-
sides a division of reserve, each of these consisting of
from fifteen to twenty thousand men. Three divi-
sions, with the reserve, acted against Milan. The
fourth attacked the line of the Po.
In addition to the announcement of the capi-
tulation, the Piedmontese Gazette contains a va-
riety of
,decrees—appointing the Prince Lieutenant-
General Commander-in-Chief on the Piedmontese
side of the Ticino and the right bank of the Po_
naming a committtee of public safety—constituting
commissioners for the mobilization of the Nation:s
•
Guard—and adoptiog by the State the widows and
orphans of those who have fallen since the cum
mencement of the campaign.
According to a report yesterday evening prevalent

in Paris, RADETZKY had received instructions from
Vienna to remain at Milan until the conclusion of
peace, Austria being prepared to listen to the me-
diation of France and England. Such a rumour,
we need scarcely say, is most improbable.
London, England, 1848-08-12

ATHEISM BRANDED BY THE FRENCH

REPUBLIC.

It is with profound joy that we observe the follow-
ing announcement in Galignani :
The Committee of Public Instruction yesterday
heard the report upon the petition of M. KcErac, re-
quiring that Atheism should be professed in the name of
the State, and a Professorship should be created to that
end. The Committee branded the proposition with
its highest indignation, and passed to the order of
the day.
. .

In the sitting of the National Assembly to-day
M. PAYER, who was chef du cabinet, put a question
to M. BASTIDE on the subject of the affairs of Italy,
with the view of ascertaining the policy to be followed
by France in that country.
M. BASTIDE replied that the Government had taken
important measures in anticipation of whatever events
might happen. He announced that France and Eng-
land had sent envoys to Innspruck and Turin, to offer
their mediation. He also announced that the latest
official news received from Milan does not by any
means confirm the rumour of the capitulation of the
capital of Lombardy.
M. BEAUJBAN, a friend of M. DE LAMARTINE, then
rose, and reminded the Minister of the engagement
taken by the Assembly, when M. DE LAINIARTINE
was Minister, to go to the assistance of Italy, in case
of necessity ; but the Assembly refused to listen to
him, and appeared to receive with great dissatisfac-
tion the belligerent notions of the party of which M.
BEuJEAN is the organ.
BOURSE, Auc. 9, HALF-PAST THREE.—The market
was at first firm; but the news of the entrance of the
Austfians into Milan, and the rumour that; Marshal
Radetzky had received orders from Vienna to push on
as rapidly as possible to Turin, checked the upward
movement, and the French Rente was rather more
heavy towards the close, leaving, however, the
closing prices a shade higher than the previous day.
It was rumoured to-day that the German Zollverein was
preparing new measures tending to sensibly raise the
import-tariff of a certain number of French articles ou
and after September 1. The object of these mea-
sures was to protect the commerce of the Zollve-
rein against tho effect of the dravrbaoks insti-
-1 tuted by the decree of June 10. Tha Piedmont de-
' clined 45E, remaining at 815 f., offered; whilst
Roman was exceedingly firm all day. Fives advanced
50c., closing at 71f., and Threes 25c., the last pvice being
43f. 50c. Bank of France Shares closed at 1,615 f., be-
ing an advance of 25f. Bons du Tresor were done at
25 dis. Certificates of Old Loan closed at-24300. Tho
Share Market was firm all day, and prices at the close
were generally higher. Vierzon had advanced 13E
75c. ; Strasburg, 6f. 25c. ; Northern, 6f. ; Orleans, 51. ;
Rouen, 3f. 75c. ; Bale and Nantes, 2. 50c. ; Marseilles,
