NATIONAL ASSEMBLY.
(THIS DAY.)
AFTERNOON SITTING.
Mr. ANDREW HARLEY, delegate for Glasgow, sent in
his resignation as a commissioner and as a.member of
the Assembly. Mr. M‘Carthy was elected in his place
ANSWER FROM THE LORD CHAMBERLAIN.
Mr. E. JONES said, yesterday he had been instructed
by the Executive to write to the Lord Chamberlain to
know when her Majesty would receive the deputation
which had been appointed to present the national
memorials. Accordingly, be indited a letter to
the following effect to his Lordship :—"My Lord—
Memorials to her Majesty having been ado
pted at
public meetings held throughout the United Kingdom,
I am instructed by the memorialists
to enquire when
Her Majesty will be pleased to receive the deputation,
instructed to present the same." He bad just received
the following reply from Lord Spencer, •• I have had the
honor to receive your letter, and in reply have to ac-
quaint you that your application must be made to
the Secretary of State for the Home Department,
PbNE
whose duty it is to take the Queen's pleasure in
cases in question.—l am, sir, your obedient servant,
The next step, therefore, for tne A"ssSemEly C
to R .take"
was to decide whether they should address themselves to
the Home Secretary or not. If they sent the memorial
through his hands, they would perhaps receive a very civil
and polite answer. saying that be would take care to
present them to her Majesty, but they would never
afterwards hear anything about the matter.
Mr. ADAMS proposed that the public meeting to be
held on Clerkenwell-green on Monday next should be
requested to accompany the deputation to Buckingham
Palace, to demand an immediate audience with the So-
vereign, for the purpose of presenting the memorial ; the
procession to be headed by the executive committee.
A long discussion then ensued, nearly every speaker
having a motion or an amendment of his own to pro-
pose, with respect the presentation of the memorial,
and it ended by the passing of a motion of Mr. Jones,
that a letter should be sent to Sir George Grey, to ask
him when her Majesty would receive the deputation.

HULL, MAY 22.
The Transit steamer, Captain Bell, arrived from
Hamburgh this morning with a full cargo of
wheat, wool, &c., a large number of passengers, 42
head of cattle, and 14,0001. in gold.
She passed a heavy frigate and schooner off the
Elbe.

The parties going from house to house to solicit
contributions for a war fleet are believed to have been
very successful.
The following additional vessels are reported to
have been captured by the Danes :—Johanna, CHRIS-
TOPLE, for La Guayra ; Charlotta, for Valparaiso
(this ship and cargo are valued at 70,0000 ; and one
Bremen barque, same unknown.
The Transit passed the brig Romp and the schooner
Roberts, both of Hull, at anchor below Cuxhaven,
waiting for the tide to proceed seaward.
(From the Borsenhalle.)

Mr. J. MAB has placed a ship, besides a large
sum of money, at the disposal of the German fleet

committee.

Head-quarters, Ulderup, May 6.

The Hanoverian officer in command at Kiel was
apprised by estafette, on the 9th inst., that a great
movement of troops was taking place at Alsen,
apparently with a view to embarkation. A report
had arrived from Flensburg that negotiations were
in progress, and that a two days' armistice had been
agreed to.

STOCKHOLM, MAY 4.

Although a strong corps of observation is posted at

The KING has published the outline of hi; plan

sist of two Chambers—the first to continue for nine

London, England, 1848-05-12

The official Vienna Gazette has the following

article :
" It was lately rumoured that, notwithstanding the
prohibition against taking money out of the country,
considerable sums in specie have been forwarded
abroad by order of the Rothschild firm. The Govern-
ment treasurer, who is entrusted by the Ministry of
Finance with all parcels of money for the house of Roths-
child, thinks it his duty to refute this rumour by the
following statement:—` The firm of Rothschild has
effected tor a number of years every payment the Aus-
trian Government is obliged to make to the German
Confederation Bank, to the bank for the campaign ope-
rations of Mayence, as also payments to a considerable
number of persons possessed of Austrian stock abroad.
In ordinary times these payments were made in bills of
exchange; but now political events having almost pa-
ralysed all banking business, they are compelled to pay
in cash.
""fhe sending of such sums, always accompanied
with the prescribed certificates, may be effected with the
less scruple, as according to the fifth paragraph of the
Government circular, dated April 2d, 1848, Government
reserved to itself a faculty of awarding specie for public
necessities, and certificates were even granted to private
individuals in cases worthy consideration. The sums
forwarded abroad for the above purpose, since the pro.
hibition published for the conveyance of specie out of the
country, amounted to 648,000 florins up to May 4th.
The Government treasurer assures that beyond the sum
above specified, no money has been forwarded to the
Rothschild firm at Franktort-on-the-Maine.' "
The students have "printed" a petition to the
Minister of the Interior, in which they suggest that
the following provisional regulations should be
adopted in the election of the first Austrian Par-
liament :-1. That no property qualification should
be required from those who are to elect the Members
of the Lower House. 2. That the qualification
for the Members of the Upper House should be not
a large landed estate, but merely one that is not
altogether insignificant. 3. That the election o
the Members of the Upper House should be made
by the people. 4. They trust that the Ministry will
intercede with his MAJESTY to forego any nomina-
tion of Members to the Upper House. A committee
of the same body yesterday issued a placard, in
which they defend themselves from the charge of
seeking to excite disturbances, and at the same time
urge the working classes to abstain from all turbulent
proceedings.
The Government has appointed a Commission to
visit the different states of the Confederation where
open courts of justice and trial by jury are already
established, as well as the kingdom of Belgium, with
the view of introducing similar improvements into
the Austrian States. A special department of the
Ministry is to be created for the protection of trade
and agriculture. It is announced that the Austrian
Parliament will meet in the course of next month.
The Suabian Mercury of the 9th inst. announces
the arrival of the Duchess of ORLEANS at Eisenach,
accompanied by her two sons, a secretary, and two
domestics.

London,

.` Last year. with 2 cwt., or your Superphosphate, and 4 cwt. Pe-
ruvian Guano per acre, I got over 25 tons per acre (of Turnips) on
land which never before grew 7 tons to the acre. This year I hope
to muster 400 tons at least, and I am shaping my course for fully
800 tons of roots upon an estate, which, before I took possession of it
last year, never grew 20 tons in any one year."
Superphosphate of Lime is the best Manure for the Turnip Crop,
and the cost is 21. per ton less than Peruvian Guano. All Manures
delivered to any railway station or wharf in London, without any
extra charge. Dealers supplied on liberal terms.

LOMBARDY.

A skirmish has taken place at Rosco, near Verona,
between the Austrian and Sardinian outposts, in
which the latter had the advantage.
The Piedmontese Parliament (Senators and De-
puties) met in a preparatory sitting on Sunday,
the 7th.

The Gazette, of Milan, of the 4th, states that—

" General Durando had addressed to his soldiers an
order of the day recommending discipline and modera-
tion, and congratulating the Swiss volunteers for having
taken up arms for the independence of Italy.
" General della Aiarmora has also recommended his
soldiers to show the greatest respect to persons and pro-
perty, under pain of exemplary punishment.
" It was reported at Vicensa, on the 29th, that the
Archduke John had arrived at Verona."

The journals of Turin, speaking of a proclamation
of General OUDINOT, which announces to the French
army of the Alps his approaching entrance into Italy,
are unanimous, while protesting their sympathy for
the French nation, in declaring that they desired no
foreign intervention in the affairs of Italy. La Con-
cordia says, " Italy must alone fight against Austria,
and the national Italian conquest must be an Italian
work."

RUSSIA.

The Constitutionnel states that accounts have been
received in Paris that the first division of the
Russian fleet quitted Sebastopol on the 20th ult.,
steering towards the coast of Bessarabia. Many
conjectures were formed as to its destination. "It
is certain," adds the Constitutionnel, " that for a
considerable time past the Cs &x has been en-
gaged in concentrating considerable forces in the
Black Sea, and that extraordinary activity has been
observed in the Arsenal of Sebastopol. The Grand
Duke CONSTANTIPIE went to inspect the works in
person. Those facts merit serious attention. They
denote the tendency of Russia to take advantage of
every great European commotion to act in the East."

ITALY.

ROME.

From the following extract from the allocution of
the POPE in the secret consistory held at Rome on
the 29th ult., it will be seen that Pius IX. has no
share in the declaration of war to Austria :
" Everybody knows, Venerable Brothers, the words
which we addressed to you on October 4 of last year,
when we reminded princes of the paternal kindness and
attentive care which they owe to the people placed under
their power, and the people of the fidelity and obedi-
ence which they Owe to their princes. Afterwards we
neglected nothing to impress these same sentiments on
all. Would to God that the effect had responded to our
paternal exhortations But every one is aware of the
public commotions which have taken place both in Italy
and in other countries. If any one should wish to pre-
tend that the path was opened to such events by the
acts which our love and kindness prompted us to

from the valley of the Adige were expected, the enemy
resumed its attack on Pastrengo with an increased force

from Cola up the stream of the Adige to turn the
right flank of the position at Pastrengo. The Field-
Marshal then sent fresh troops from Verona against
the enemy's right flank. Lieut. Field-Marshal Vo-

and Lazze, determined, at three in the afternoon, no

HOUSE OF COMMONS, May 11.

LUNATIC ASYLUMS (SCOTLAND) BILL.
The LORD ADVOCATE moved the second reading
of this Bill, and said that he wished to state that a better
regulation of lunatic asylums prevailed, considering the
absolute and abject condition of pauper lunatics in Scot-
land. Look, said he, to the state of that country, and
when you are given to understand, on the most undeni-
able proofs of the Commissioners appointed to investi-
gate into their wretched condition, that there are in
Scotland twenty-four counties without one single luna-
tic asylum, will you not >say that their affliction is
worthy of the Consideration of the humane and chari-
table.? Then there are six counties where a few hospi-
tals or asylums exist, and to those gather all the afflicted,
or at least as many as can possibly, from the twenty-
four to which I have already alluded. At present there are
in Scotland 3,400 lunatics. Of' these there are 1,660 who
can support themselves; of the pauper lunatics, 1,770 have
not a solitary cell in any asylum throughout the country.
The Hon. and Learned Gentleman then alluded to
the number of lunatics in several of the counties
who were able to support themselves, and to the
quadruple number of pauper lunatics, and implored the
sympathy of the House and the country to redeem crea-
tures suffering the most agonising torture, both mentally
and bodily. He then, in a most pathetic manner, de-
scribed some melancholy sufferings of those creatures,
and trusted that the House would evince its well-known
generosity to fellow-creatures and fellow-subjects who
are doomed to s• ch afflictions. From the communica-
tions he had received, and the statistical returns he had
seen, he had every reason to believe that the measure
would be attended with considerable success. In order
to make it the more extensively efficient, he should pro-
pose that it go ttrough a Committee up stairs, where
its defects might be the better corrected on a discus-
sion.—(Hear, hear.)
After a few words from Mr. F. 3,IACKENZIE,
Mr. HUME said he should not oppose the Bill, be-
cause he took it for granted that a Committee up stairs
would deal with it properly, and he hoped that in parti-
cular the question of expenditure would receive due
consideration.
Mr. AGLIONBY said he believed the Bill was not
wanted in Scotland, though he should not now oppose
it on principle. There was a very excellent asylum
in
the neighbourhood of Dumfries, which occasioned some
expenditure to the inhabitants of the district, and the
operation of this Bill would be to increase it.
After a few words from Mr. FORBES,
Mr. EW ART said he should give his support to the
Bill of the Hon. and Learned Gentleman the Lord Ad-
vocate, but would beg to call his attention to a eircum-

BOURSE.-PARIS, THURSDAY, MAY 11.

THREE O'CLOCK.—There was a great disposition to
a rise to-day at the Bourse, but on its being ascertained
that there were some serious differences among the
members of the new Executive Government, prices gave
way, and both Rentes and :Shares closed at nearly yes-
terday's prices.

KAFIR WAR.

Mr. B. OSBORNE wished to know whether it was
the intention of the Government to recognise the ser-
vices of the officers in tho Kafir war by decoration or
otherwise?

Mr. F. ,MULE, as we understood, said that the
Government had no such intention.

Mr. B. OSBORNE then gave notice of his intention,
upon the first opportunity, to bring the claims of these
officers before the House.
BONDED SUGAR

Mr. G. TIIOMI'SON wished, pursuant to notice, to
ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether the re-
fined sugars of our bonded sugar refiners will be allowed
to pay the same rate of duty levied on Dutch refined
sugar, on delivery from the dock or a bonded warehouse.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER had not
by law the power to do what the Hon. Member referred
to, but he proposed to introduce a Bill on a future occa-
sion to enable him to do so.
CORN TRADE.

Mr. STUART moved, pursuant to notice, for a re-
turn of the names of all persons to whom duties on corn
imyorted previously to the Ist day of March, 1815, and
entered for home consumption subsequently to that date,
have been remitted, and the amounts remitted to each
person. And, copy of any opinion of the Attorney or
Solicitor-General on the question whether duty was paid
on corn imported before the Ist day of March, 1848,
and entered for home consumption subsequently to that
day, with the dates of any such opinion.
The Hos. MEMBER also snored for copies of any cor-
respondence, Treasury or other minutes and warrants,
relative to the remission of duties on 214,000 quarters of
grain, &e., imported previous but entered for home con-
sumption subsequent to the Ist day of March, 1848.

PERNAMBUCO, JUNE 15.
Cotton.—Our market, during the last month, has been
pretty well supplied with this staple, and the price has
been as low as 4 dolls.; it has, however, again advanced,
and there are may buyers at to-day's quotations. First
quality, 4,400 per arroba, or about 4d. per pound,
Sugars.—This article has been much neglected of late,
and will no doubt continue so until more cheering ac-
counts are received of the state of Europe, The stock
on sale at present, independent of a large quantity al-
ready in shippers' hands, is Lot less than 2,500 cases
10,000 bags, and the holders of which, generally, would
be glad, wo think, to part with it at our present reduced
prices. Cases, whites, 500 per arroba, above ferret in
usual assortments and according to quality, about equal
to 13s. per cwt.; muscovados, 500 per arroba, about equal
to 9s. pet cwt.; barrels and bags, whites, first and
seconds, very scarce, 2,000 per arroba, about equal to
1,350
16s. sd. per cwt.; common assortments, 1,600 per ar-
robs, about equal to 13s. 2d. per cwt.; low whites,
0% 1;

our quotations. Dry-salted 90 per lb., about 2i.d, per lb.
Rum, 22, 56,000 to 59,000 per pipe.
Exchange.—Owing to the news from Euror and the
continued unsettled state of affairs, added to the accounts
from Rio, where a considerable decline in the rate of
exchange had taken place, ours has also experienced a
further decline, and first•rate paper is not obtainable to-
day at 24d., at which even bills are scarce.
gn to the
Fruights.—There is not at present a single English
vessel in port disengaged. The last rate ive
Channel and a market in the United Kingdom was 4/,,
and 5 per cent. per ton for sugar in bags, los. additional
if sent to a port on the continent between Havre
arid
Ilailaburgh. Sugar, in cases, 15 per cent, higher, o
Cot.
to to Liverpool id. to ld., and 5 per cent. per lb. Sugar
ballast 655. to 70s. per too. For the Mediterranean and
Trieste or to any continental port direct there has been
nothing doing of late. The above rates for English v„-
eels are still obtainable.

The Emigration Commission yesterday appointed
a vessel to be dispatched from Deptford on • the 21st of
August, with 400 emigrants, to Twofold Bay, New
South Wales! On the 2Stb of August a like number
will be dispatched for Adelaide, South Australia,
making a total of 1,400 emigrants, exclusive of chil-
dren, to leave London during the ensuing month.

NAVIGATION-LAWS.

Lord G. BENTINCK wished to know from the Pre-
sident of the Board of Trade, whether he would have
any objection to lay on the table of the House the
memorial and the petitions of St. John's and New Bruns-
wick relative to the navigation• laws.
Mr. LABOUCHERE as we understood, declined to
accede to the Noble Lord's request.
SUGAR DUTIES.

Lnrd G. BENTINCK wishad to ask th,s Right Hon.
the Chancellor ot the Exch, quer whether he had made
up his mind as to the course that he intended to pursue
with respect to the difficulties which had arisen in the
way of carrying nut the sugar duties ?
The CHANCELLOR ot the EXCHEQUER said he
proposed to move the insertion of certain words in the
Sugar Bill to obviate the difficulty.
