squadron in the Italian seas, prepared, in case of ex-
treme-emergv.ncy, to offer aid to the great man who
has tieen rendered the victim of Roman democracy.
Happily, however, it would seem that the prompt
help afforded by General CAVAIGNAC will prevent
the necessity of any further exertion for the protec-
tion of the PONTIFF. According to the French
Consul at Civita Vecchia, Pio /NT ONO has already
departed from his tapital, and is now in all likelihood
on his way to receive the homage and hospitality of
the French Republic. _

A more eloquent manifesto in favour of the cause
of Moderation could not have been issued by General
CAVAIGNAC. It has an eloquence, too, which re-
quires no interpreter—the eloquence of the universal
language—the language of practical magnanimity.
And in the event of M. DE LAMARTINE declaring
himself explicitly for the election of CAVAIGNAC as
President, it would secure at once the discomfiture of
Prince LOUIS NAPOLEON. As yet the Moderate
Republicans should bear in recollection that LAMAR-
TINE stands at the head of the list of candidates.
Nor do we think that that great patriot will on any
account reject the suffrages of his fellow-citizens.
He has himself told us that he has neither the ambi-
tion to seek, nor the cowardice to decline, the votes
of the electors. His name is his manifesto. Let
France remember that sentence. And let every
Frenchman, moreover, when dropping his vote into
the urn, call to mind that sublime declaration of M.

to the Tuileries, go myself on that day to
the Hotel de Ville l"

Some time must necessarily elapse before any
alterations can be made in the working of the Irish
Poor-law—before the area of taxation can be ma-
terially increased or diminished. A close and search-
ing investigation must take place before the intro-
duction of any measure on the subject, and it may
reasonably be calculated that six months at least
must pass away before the Legislature can pronounce
its fiat upon any of the various plans that may be
submitted for its consideration. No relief, therefore,
can be hoped for during the present emergency from
any anticipated changes in the law. The difficulties
must be encountered with the present materials. It
would be well if the resident gentry of Ireland
became fully] convinced of this fact, and that they
applied themselves zealously and energetically to
develop the resources of their country, and to convert
them to the most profitable purposes. As we have
repeatedly pointed out, the primary want of Ireland
is full and profitable employment for her labouring
population. She possesses an inexhaustible mine of
wealth in the thews and sinews of her hardy chil-
dren ; but, unhappily, that mine is unwrought, and
although no nation in the world has greater capabili-
ties, there is, perhaps, no other in which
these capabilities are so generously neglected.
Some blighting curse appears to hang over the soil
that paralyzes the efforts of the inhabitants. In other
lands they will become prosperous and happy, will
exhibit the most persevering industry and resolute
determination ; but on their native shores they remain
apathetic and indifferent while others step in and
seize the prizes which they will not extend their hands
to pick up.
There is no respect in which this want of energy is
more deplorably conspicuous than in the Irish
fisheries, which, if carried on judiciously and
efficiently, would afford ample remuneration
as well to the parties who embarked their capital
in the speculation as to those actually engaged
therein. There was much truth in the old proverb
that " Amsterdam was built upon herrings' bones"—
it was to the large profits realised by the Dutch
fisheries that the subsequent wealth and commercial
greatness of Holland might in a great degree be as-
cribed. It is stated that in the early part of the 17th
century no less than 3,000 vessels, manned by 50,000
seamen, were employed in the fisheries; and it was
on the coasts of the British islands that they obtained
the greatest success, by which they were enabled to
export no less than 30,000 tons of salt fish. The same
facilities still exist, if they were turned to any beneficial
purposes, but, alas ! they are slighted and disregarded.
The bays and harbours by which the coast of Ireland
is indented—the ocean by which it is surrounded—
still teem with fish of the finest description. The
supply is as abundant as when millions of pounds
sterling were realised by Dutch fishermen; but the
means and appliances are wanting which they had at
their disposal, and in the mi Idle of the 19:h century
the Irish fishermen are in every respect inferior to,
and have none of the advantages possessed by, the
Dutch more than two hundred years ago.
It is in the very districts where the dis-
tress and suffering exists to the greatest extent
that the fisheries could be made most profitable, if a
determined and combined effort were made for the
purpose. On the western coasts of Ireland the com-
plaints are the most incessant. Landlords are said to
be nearly reduced to the condition of paupers. The
rents obtained from even the best circumstanced
estates are little more than sufficient to meet the
charges thereon for the maintenance of the destitute
inhabitants. The workhouses are crowded to suffo-
cation—thousands and tens of thousands of able-
bodied men demand out-door relief, and it cannot be
withheld ; for if refused they must perish of starvation
in a Christian land. And yet in the immediate vicinity
of these workhouses there is a sea coast extending
along many miles, where a cheap and wholesome
food might be obtained almost sufficient to maintain
these countless multitudes : end the stores sent by
PROVIDENCE for their supply are disregarded, while
a universal outcry is maintained respecting their
unhappy position, and unfortunately with too much
truth to sustain it. Surely something should
be done, and that speedily, to correct this anomalyi
Some benevolent members of the Society of Friends
have taken the initiative, their keen and intelligent
minds readily perceive the vast importance of the
movement, and how much may be effected, if an
impulse is given that will be zealously followed up. The
national gratitude is due to those humane individuals
for their praiseworthy efforts, and in no manner can
it be better testified than by following up their experi-
ment, and obtaining the great results which no iso-
lated exertions, however meritorious, can obtain.
Curing stations should be provided in every distrie,
so that a short journey would be sufficient to send the
fish to a place where it might be saved and rendered
really profitable. As far as practicable markets
should be provided, where the pecuniary value of the
fish could be obtained. It is not merely the trouble or
the risk of capturing the fish that renders the Irish
peasant apathetic and careless about employing
himself in the fisheries ; his want of proper boats
nets, and other fishing implements, undoubtedly, have
a very material effect; but the difficulty of disposing
of the produce of his toil also produces very injurious
results. If the take should be a large one it is suf-
fered togo to waste, except the small quantity turned
to immediate use and consumed by his family and
neighbours. There are no means of drying and
saving it, and thus making it available for future
linngto Hawkers,
stores there are no purchasers to pay a fair
value.

with entire and well-deserved success.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.
The following telegraphic dispatch was received
by the Minister of Foreign Affairs on Thursday
evening, and was read to the Assembly yesterday by
General CAVAIGNAC

" MARSEILLES, NOV. 28.
" CIVITA VECCHIA, Nov. 26, THREE P.M..—The
Consul of France to the Minister of Foreign Affairs :
The Pope departed secretly on the 24th, at five o'clock
in the afternoon. Rome is calm and indifferent. A
vote of confidence has been passed in favour of the
Ministry. The Pope is on his way to France. The
Tenare has gone to Gaeta to take him on board."

The Journal des Debats of Wednesday was some •
what premature in announcing the success of the two
Bonapartist candidates, the Prince DE LA MoncowA
and General PIAT, in the departments of the Moselle
and Yonne. In the Moselle the Bonapartist has been
defeated by the moderate Republi•;an, the numbers
at the conclusion of the scrutiny being—

For Captain ROLAND v 17,951
For the Prince of MosKowA 11,371
while in Yonne, the Legitimist was at the head of
the poll by a large majority ; the numbers being :
M. RANDOT D'AVALON (Legitimist) 7,344
JEROME BONAPARTE 5,729
General PIAT . .
M. UZANNE . .

It appears that the report of the return of M. NA-
POLEON BERTRAND is also premature, but it is
thought that he will carry the election.
_ _

M. DE LAMARTINE has addressed the following
letter to the editor of the Debats:—

" Paris, Nov. 30, 1848.
" Sir,--As it is impossible to reply to all the letters
in which I am asked it I accept the candidature for the
Presidency of the Republic, will you per yme to borrow
your journal, in order to carry my reply ,to the country?
Here it is. Ido not solicit votes, and do not desire them;
but the Republic may yet have difficulties and dangers
to traverse. There is as great a difference between the
hardihood of soliciting, and the weakness of refusing, as
there is between ambition and devotion. This devotion
commands me not to withdraw my name from the free
choice of the country. I accept, then, the votes which
may be given to me.

"LAMARTINE, Representative of the People."
We read in the Moniteur—

"The Liberte inquires if it be true that the French
Government sent a courier to London at the end of the
sitting of Saturday, for the purpose of excusing itself to
the English Cabinet for having, without consulting it,
sent troops to Civita Vecchia, and that it grounded such
a step on electoral motives. Such questions merit only the
most profound disdain."

The National Assembly yesterday proceeded to the
organization of the bureaux for the succeeding
month. The 13onapartists started candidates in every
instance. They were all unsuccessful, and the sup-
porters of General CAVAIGNAC were returned by large
majorities.

The 18th aniversary of the Polish revolution was
celebrated in Paris on Thursday by a religious service
at the Church of St. Roch. In the evening there was
a meeting held, which was presided over by Prince
CZARTORISKY. The principal speaker was MIEROS-
LAWSRY, who has just returned from Posen, and thus
the hero of the last Polish revolution described that
general reactionary conspiracy of the Absolutists
throughout Europe, of the existence of which we
have so frequently warned our readers. " We have just
returned from the enemy's cam p,” said MIEROSLAWSRT,
and we declare to you that they all understand each
other. Reaction has but one hand and one axe.
Already it is making use of the arms of our misled
brethren. It is for you to choose. Will you have as
your van guard five hundred thousand soldiers like
those of SOBIESKI or KOSCIUSKO, or will you have
among your enemies five hundred thousand grape
shot firers more like those of Nicholas, of WRAN-
GEL, of JELLACHICIII."

BANK or FRANCE.—The following is a return of
the situation of the Bank of France on the 30th of
November, 1848:

in the interior of the city, I also felt myself under
the necessity of addressing a severe aril warn-
ing noice to ell who then presumed to preach up
sedition, or who, by means of constantly renewed col-
lection of people and revolts, kept the population of the
city in a constant state of feverish excitement, whereby
their business and credit were injure i, and they became
generally impoverished; and, in a word, by which they
were exposed to all the horrors which lawlessness
could bring upon mankind ; I have now room for
hope that I have obtained this end, and, as already
some of the most dangerous of these disturbers have
been dealt with according to the military laws, that
there are amongst the misled, or rather of the in-
culpated, a portion worthy of being pardoned ; I now
further order that, from the present moment, all in-
inquiries that shall be brought forward respecting those
who bore a share in the last disturbance shall not be
brought before a military commission, but before the
ordinary civil tribunals for the trial of criminal cases, so
far as relates to such civilians, by which proceeding such
mitigation of punishment may be given as could not have
been carried out under the strict rules of a military
court-martial. As regards all other regulations imposed
in my proclamation of the Ist of the month, relating to
the duration of the state of siege, they are still to re•
main unaltered in full tome,

" ALFRED PRINCE WINDISCRGRATZ, Field-Marshal.
"11(04-quarters, Schonbrunn."
The Breslau Gazette of the 26th ult., publishes a
letter from Vienna of the 24th, which says—
" It is believed that the Archduke John will give in
his resignation of the office of Vicar of the Empire, be-
cause the Archduke wishes to give up to Prussia the
direction of German affairs. It is said that the Austrian
deputies have been recalled from Frankfurt. Austria de-
sires that all her states together (including those which
are hereditary) should form a part of Germany; but, by
continuing to pursue her own separate policy, she vir-
tually refuses to carry out this incorporation. It is as-
serted that the Emperor told Windischgratz that he
would bestow upon him whatever he would be pleased to
ask. Windischgratz replied that all he asked was that
the Emperor would return to Vienna. The city or 01.
denburgh is occupied by our troops, which greatly faci-
litates the junction of the corps of Dahlen and the grand
army. At present they nre operating a7ainst Presburg.
Raab, which, in 1809,
.held in check, with 800 men, the
French for a space of nine days, will probably be block-
lided.'aThe main body of the army will be employed
against Pesth. In Hungary martial law has been pro-
claimed: it is said that it will be applied to General
Moga. The corps of General Simonich is in the envi-
rons of Presburg. General Schlik will soon arrive there."
The New Gazette of the Rhine, of Nov. 29, gives
under date of Frankfort, Nov. 27, the followThg ;
" Windischgratz has been shot. This news is founded
on good authority. I learned it from a deputy who
has arrived at the Ministry of Justice : 'you may give
it currency as true."

dared by the National Assembly on the occasion of the
death of a Member. 2. That such an order in the pre-
sent ease would imply an approval of the deceased
Member's conduct in Vienna. 3. That the application
of martial law to an off( nce committed by a Member
affordeld no definite reason for such a solemnity. 4. That
such a resolution might be regar.!ed as an unwarrant.
able demonstration against the Austrian Government.—
The motion was rejected.
_ _

Herr von Heilen moved that the funeral ceremonies
be suspended until the Imperial Commissaries had re-
ported on the facts of Blum's career in Vienna.—Rejected.
The motion of the majority of the committee, that the
ceremony be a church solemnity, was carried,
That of the minority of the committee, that the mem-
bers should assemble as usual and proceed to the church
of St. Catherine, allowing the authorities of the city and
various societies to join the procession, was rejected.
Raveaux hereupon declared himself totally against
this view of the Assembly's intention in voting the rile
in question, and therefore withdrew from all further
participatimn in the committee's deliberations.
\Vigard did the same. _ _ _

Aninterpellation was then addressed to the Minister
of Justice, as to how he meant to interfere for the pro-
teeti,.‘n of the free right of associwion in Bavaria, where
the authoti,ies were now busy in demanding an exact
census and description of the members of the political
clubs. The at swer was deferred.

Esterle, of Cava!, se, then moved—" The Imperial
Ministry is called upon, from a sense of justice and hu-
manity, and with a view to the honour of Germany and
the int'rests of an unfortunate nation, to do its very
utmost towards cffectuati-g in the Lombardo-Verett in
provinces the substitution of civil government for mili-
tary rule. It shall also take care that the assurances of
his Majesty the Emperor of Austria, together with all
other conventions, be respected and carried out, and
that, therefore, the penalties imposed on private per-
sons in the shape of compulsory contributions, or the
con&cation of goods (which punishments are rendered
unwarrantable by the aforesaid assurances, &c.), be im-
mediately cancelled. It shall also take the speediest
possible measures for the conclusion of a fair and honour-
able peace."—Urgency disallowed.
The Assembly then divided on the motion of the Com-
mittee of Constitution respecting the Imperial Court of
Judicature.

Giskra, at the close of the sitting, insisted warmly on
the Assembly holding an extraordinary sitting to-
morrow, in order that the Austrian question might
become the subject of debate.
Agreed by a small majority.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was steady,
but the sales were only 4,000 baps. TI a transacticni
of the wet k have bt en large at fuller rites, but the
market has been better supplied and duller since Wed-
nestlay.—ln Railway Shares there was not much doing,
but the market was firmer.

The monthly return of imports and exports from the
United Kingdom affords another proof of reviving trade,
and for the first time since the Chartist disturbances
there is an increase in exports.
In the principal items, save one, the account of the
Bank of England for the week to Saturday last may
again be accepted as very satisfactory. The exception is in
the circulation of notes payable on demand, and in which
there is a further material reduction. The resources of
the Bank are increasing, but not its business. The
amount, to the er, dit of the public treasury goes on in-
creasing. Tfif bullion, as we anticipated, was further
added to, and will no doubt yet he augmented :

Because a certain amount of " calls" are advertised,
shares again become flat, although the Money Market
is known to be easier than for some time past. The ex-
planation seems to be, however, that our monetary laws
have reduced the property of those who had the will and
power to view favourably, investments in railways, while
their enormous depreciation, in common, however, with
other undertakings, deters new parties from venturing
upon purchases. We find in a criticism upon the money
laws by a provincial editor, the following natural in
quiry:—
" Upon what do men of property rely to meet their
engagements ? Upon the quantity of such property ?
No. But upon its market and convertible value. To
what class of commercial, manufacturing, and annuitant
property can the Economist refer, which has not sus-
tained an extent of depreciation as great or greater than
that which has befallen the value of railway stocks—
factories, machinery, warehouses, dwelling-houses, ships,
produce, or insurance and banking companies' stocks?
There is no description of property almost, which for
conversion into money for any necessary purpose will
now command within one. third to one-half of the sum to
which it was fairly equivalent before the April panic of
last year. Five hundred millions sterling would not cover
the loss of capital the country has sustained through this
general depreciation of its industry and wealth. Here,
then, is cause fur the difficulty of meeting railway calls,
altogether apart from, and much more palpable than, an
organic and original impossibility of finding capital.
And as to the 130,000,000 L of railway calls, which the
Economist thinks will destroy the country, a restoration
of one class of property alone, Consols, to its former
value, would supply a working capital equivalent to the
whole sum required for such completion of the unfinished
lines. _ _

" The principle which regulates:the value of railway
property being once understood. there. would be no lack
of efficient plans for meeting the case of the perplexed
and almost bankrupt companies. If a fluctuation in the
rate of interest have such power as has.just been shown,
to dissolve into nonentity, like snow before the sun, the
immense capital of those companies, their first duty ob-
viously is to unite together for one specific object—.
namely, to demand such an improvement in the present
money laws as shall admit of a permanent standard
of value for all such property in the shape of (what there
is now no certainty of for a week together) an equable
rate of interest."

With all this, we cannot but coincide in the opinion of
many intelligent parties, that the value of railway shares
is now at its lowest, and we make but one reservation in
giving thiS opinion, viz., such a political or monetary panic
as would involve everything in one common depreciation.
A good return, making the most liberal allowance, can
now be secured upon investments in railways, a judi-
cious seltption being made, and many will have to regret
that they allowed the present oppOrtunity to pass. As
to calls, &r., their influence can only be temporary.
