rule for title and rank." Unhappily, on examination,
their proceedings have not even this negative justifi-
cation. So far from maintaining an austere
implacability in the maintenance of their intolerant
resolution, they yield with a pliant grace and an
elastic conscience in the presence of those whose
positions are characterised by a supreme and illustri-
ous elevation. Only a few Sundays before the one
which fell upon the Bth of October, her Most Gra-
cious MAJESTY and his Royal Highness the Prince
ALBERT travelled on the Scottish railways without
any attempt whatever at prohibition. The saintly
directors did not dare to force the insolence of their
affected piety upon the attention of their SOVEREIGN.
Figuratively speaking, they licked the dust in rever-
ential silence, and spread the carpettings for the dainty
feet of VICTORIA as ostentatiously, though not quite
SO chivalrously, as did Sir WALTER RALEIGH, when
he cast his cloak in the miry footpath of ELIZABETH.
True it was Sunday—but then there was the august
presence of a Monarch ; and, before the glorious
spell of royalty cant was transformed into syco-
phancy. The secretary of the Scottish Central
Railway appears to be somewhat of the same thinking
with the barber who shaved the chin of Mr. LILLY..
WICK and dressed the braided locks ofMiss MoBLEDIA
KENwIGs—" a distinction must be made somewhere."
The barber stopped short at a coal-heaver. The
secretary of the Scottish Central Railway stops
short at a duchess. Neither of them can consent to
go lower. The melancholy difference is that the
coalheaver whistled, and the duchess wept !
Let the directors at the very least remember this,
that upon matters of this character public in-
dignation does not very rapidly evaporate, it only
increases its energy by reflection. We have already
talked too much against the humbug of Sabbath-
breaking. The people are tired of uttering merely
windy lamentations. We will have more now, let
the directors of the Central and all other Scottish
railways rest assured of that. We are sick to very
nausea of this pitiable sham of religion. Our disgust
can only be removed by the punishment and annihi •
lation of such rank hypocrisy. And our feelings,
thanks be to heaven ! are anything but isolated,
they are on the contrary reciprocrated by the vast
bulk of the population. The time has gone by for
the pottering Acts of Parliament about opening
public-houses at this hour and that hour, about
vending shrimplb2fore church service, and closing the
doors of coffee-shops during such and such intervals.
The grievance has swollen too hugely to be tolerated
any further. We are no longer prepared to make
concessions even to the breadth of a mathematical
line. Englishmen are not going to have morality
dictated to them under penalty by Acts of Parliament.
GoD's laws are too holy and awful in their simplicity to
be enforced, forsooth, and strengthened by the puny
enactments of a few sugary-lipped and stony-
hearted hypocrites ! Upon this point the population
are at length resolved—mark the words, you directors
and secretary of the Scottish Central Railway ! —are
resolved. They are resolved that the Government
shall at once make an example of these money-making
Pharisees—by putting down the atrocious cant about
Sabbath-breaking, under the stern and irresistible
pressure of authority. To this end the Railway
Board will, without doubt, forthwith inti-
mate to the directors that unless their in-
solent and illegal enactments be at once
rescinded, their Act of Parliament shall be suspended,
if not altogether and for ever repealed. The fiat of
popular indignation has gone forth—the Legislature
must respond in a kindred spirit—and the obdurate
directors will very speedily feel the weight of the
popular wrath crushing down upon them through the
medium of the Government.

Before we conclude our present allusion to this
monstrous and most unendurable humbug about the
desecration of the Sabbath, we must, for about the
nine hundred and ninety-ninth time, correct the
blunder of the very term itself. The Sabbath !
Why the youngest children in the lowest charity-
schools know well enough that the Sabbath is not
Sunday, but Saturday. And yet these pretenders
to a peculiar degree of sanctity prate about the
" keeping holy" of the Sunday—calling the Sunday
by a wretched imisnomer, the Sabbath. They in-
sist, moreover, upon the necessity of abstaining from
work upon this No Sabbath. Abstaining from work I
Now we should like to know uncommonly if it was
promoting the abstinence from labour on Sun-
day, the Bth of October,—the prevention of
the Mistress of the Robes from entering
an empty carriage of the mail-train then starting
from Perth; or the compelling her Grace to employ
additional attendants, post-boys, ostlers, porters, sta-
ble-supernumeraries, besides all the different function-
aries required for the working of a steam-vessel ? Or
was the labour of conveying the Duchess of SUTHER-
LAND to the death-bed of a venerable and beloved
parent more deserving of being prevented than—
than—what does the reader think ?—than—the battle
of Waterloo ! Yes ; than the battle of Waterloo—for
the battle of Waterloo was fought upon a Sunday. On
that Sunday, in 1815, thousands were butchered, by
cannon ball and bayonet, by sword-thrust and
musketry ; the corn-fields reeked with the blood and
carcases of the slain; the stench of the gunpowder
contaminated the atmosphere of Belgium—three
great armies were committing murder wholesale in
the face of the day—on that Sunday. And for this
the thanks of many nations were solemnly offered up
to the GOD of Heaven. Te Deum was chaunted in
the cathedrals, church bells were pealed, flags flut-
tered from the towers of the minsters, and cities
were illuminated. Nay, we doubt not that
the directors and the secretary of the Scot-
tish Central Railway would have lighted candles
in their house-windows in celebration of the battle of
Waterloo, although that most bloody battle was
fought upon a Sunday—while they cruelly prevent
her Grace the Duchess of SUTHERLAND from
hastening to the house of her dying father, because,
forsooth, that journey of filial love and devotion
would be—a desecration of the Sabbath I Bah ! And
these brutalities are p.petrated in the divine name
of Religion !

If the intelPgence from Milan be accurate (and of its
accuracy there seems no reason to doubt), then the
result of the terrific battle which, according to the
latest accounts, was raging under the walls of Vienna,
is a matter of, comparatively speaking, minor im-
portance. Let the result be even as the most servile
of the serviles would wish—as disastrous as the most
timid of the Liberals might fear, still it will not
avert the doom of the Austrian empire. Nay, it
will rather hasten it than otherwise, because by
bringing into closer contact the various hostile races
of which the armies of that empire are composed, it
will expose to the whole world the important fact
that the power of the Kaisars rests upon a founda-
tion of sand.

On the 11th inst. the intelligence of the advance of
JuLLaciricif and his Croats into Hungary, by com-
mand of the EMPEROR, far the purpose of restoring
absolutism among the Hungarians, arrived at Milan.
The Hungarian regiments on receiving the news
assembled in order of battle before the palace, and
shouting " Death to the Croats," demanded leave of
RADETZKY to return to their country, giving him
twenty-four hours to decide, after the expiration of
which time they would take their departure. RA.
DETERT called out several regiments of Croats, when
the Hungarians requested the inhabitants to retire,
and promised to give a good lesson:to any troops who
might attempt to enter the city. Such is
the last intelligence received direct] from
but it was rumoured in Paris last evening
that there was fighting in the streets
of Milan on the 12th. Thus :it appears that the
Metternich policy is beginning to produce its natural
effects. It was one of the crafty schemes of that
subtle Minister to encourage national dislikes and
national differences among the subjects of the same
Sovereign, in order that by means of those differences
he might keep the whole empire in a state of slavery.
Italian soldiers were employed to oppress Hungary,
Hungarians to oppress Pules, and:Poles to keep down
Germans. Divide et Impera was his motto, and for
a time he ruled :suprerne.the gigantic FAGIN of the
cut-purses of the empire. But at length he was
overcome by his own subtlety. By inciting the
Gallician peasants to the murder of the nobles of
that province he aroused the suspicions and hatred of
the nobility of every part of the empire : by refus-
ing to emancipate the serfs of the Duchy of Austria
he alienated from his rule the peasants : by seeking
to support:the Sonderbund in Switzerland he made all

the learned men of Germany foes to his Government,
while his defeat by the POPE in the affair of Ferrara,
destroyed the prestige of invincibility which had
hitherto attended him. Under these circumstances,
although the French Revolution may have hastened,
it did not produce the fall of METTERNICH, which
could not have been delayed many months longer.
Had his system fallen with him, had the EMPEROR
adopted a policy of honesty and truth instead of
continuing the Metternich policy of deceit
and fraud, all might have been well; but unfortu-
nately, although the man was exiled, the system
remained. A free constitution was promised to
Austria, to Bohemia, to Hungary, while at the same
time the EMPEROR fled from Austria for the avowed
purpose of endeavouring to raise the Tyrol against
the Constitutionalists of Germany, caused Prague to
be bombarded by Germans, in order to put down
those very Sclavonians to whom he is now appealing
for assistance ; and while proclaiming the Ban
JELLACILICH a traitor, kept up a constant communi-
cation with him, and supplied him with money and
arms to restore Absolutism in Hungary.
The affair in Milan is, we believe, but the com-
mencement of an union among the different races
of which the Austrian empire is composed, to
secure the liberties of the several states into
which they naturally divide themselves. Free
Hungary has united with free Italy. Will
not free Germany and free Poland join this holy
alliance of nations, and expel Absolutism altogether
from those fair portions of Europe which have hitherto
been crushed beneath the iron heel of military des-
potism ?

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.
The debate on the vote of confidence question was
continued in the National Assembly until a late hour
on Monday evening. At the conclusion the Assem-
bly passed the vote of confidence by a majority of
570 to 155. The Red Republicans all voted against
the Government. About 100 of the moderate Re•
publicans abstained from voting.
Prinde LOUIS NAPOLEON has been endeavouring to
induce the Socialists to ally themselves to him by
promising that should he be elected President of the
Republic M. RASPAIL shall be his Prime Minister.
The Debuts has now come out as the avowed sup-
porter of the new Cabinet, which is also supported by
M. LAMARTINE. The Bien Public says :
" From the date of this sitting it may be said, that
henceforth the public belongs to the nation." It says
that the principle of conciliation was from the first
adopted by M. de Lamartine. "It was that policy,"
it states, " which inspired the abolition of the oath,
wrote the manifesto, proclaimel peace everywhere,
and the attraction and dissolution of parties in the
Republic; that was the generous, hospitable, national
policy adopted by us and our friends; for we have,
and they have, some right to claim the initiative of
it. That policy has just gained a supreme victory."
The sitting of the Assembly, up to the departure of
the post yesterday, was occupied in discussing the
report of the Committee on the Martinique election.
It was apprehended, that some disturbance might
occur last night in consequence of the holding of a
banquet at the Barriere Rochehouard, at which M.
LEDRU ROLLIN was to preside. Another banquet,
also to be presided over by M. LEDRU ROLLIN, is
advertised for Sunday.
PARIS BOURSE—TUESDAY, OCT. 17.
THREE o'cnoca.—The Bourse opened to-day with
every appearance of improved prices, but from the very
commencement the Rentes began to recede, and they
closed heavily, rather below the elosing prices of yester-
day. Even the improved prospect of the Ministry here
could not sustain them. There are many reasons given
for the fall. Vienna was said to have been bombarded,
'Milan to be in a state of insurrection, and the prospects
of disturbances in Paris to be increasing. But perhaps
the real cause of the fall was the report that a great and
influential capitalist had been selling to an immense
amount. After the closing of the Bourse the Five per
Cents. fell to 681. 50e. For the Account the French
Three per Cents. have declined 15c. ; the Five per
Cents. have declined 20c.; and the Loan 10c. For Money
the Three per Cents. have fallen 5c.; and the Five per
Cents. 20c.; but the Loan is sc. better; Bons du Ti6sor
not quoted; Bank of France Shares 21. 50c. lower; Bel-
gian Bank Shares not quoted; Five per Cents. remain
as yesterday; Spanish Funds not quoted; Roman has
risen per cent. ; Rothschild's Receipts not quoted.

only actuating motive is plunder.
In the sitting of the Diet on the evening of the
10th, KRAUSS, the Minister, announced that the
courier he had dispatched after HORNBOSTL had re-
turned. He overtook the Minister at Habersdorf,
beyond the Krems. He brought no commands from
the EMPEROR, es his MASESTY had continued his
journey, probably with the intention of stopping at
Baum or Olmitz. The Minister further announced
that propositions had been sent to the EMPEROR of a
nature to conciliate parties. Deputy 'ABNER had
been sent to his MAJESTY.
PILLEESDORF rendered an account of the result of
the deputation to AUERSPREG. The latter had most
solemnly declared that he had concentrated his troops
with a view only to their safety. He could not con-
ceal from the deputation that both he and the troops
were in a high state of exasperation at the murder of
Count LATOUR. After three hours' deliberation with
his staff, the General announced to the deputation that
he could not alter his position, but that he had no
hostile intentions. At the same time, he advised the
city to provide his troops well with provisions, that
his men might not be obliged to go and help them-
selves. As regards the other questions, the Count
gave evasive answers. PILLERSDORP concluded by
proposing that the result be made known to the
people. This was opposed by SIBRAKOWSKI, who
was of the opinion that it would only embitter the
ill feeling towards the troops, and that in any case
it ought to he accompanied by a vote of censure on
General AUEVSPERG for having disobeyed the orders
of the Diet. This was received with applause. The
sitting was interrupted to await the result of the
mission to lIBLLACSICH. In half an hour PRATO entered
to give an account of his and BILINSII'S mission to
the Ban. He had given them an answer in writing,
as follows :

" The motives of his advance were his duties as a
servant of the State, and a soldier. As a servant of
the State it was his duty to put down anarchy ; as a
soldier, the noise of the guns had pointed out his
route. His object was to uphold the Monarchy on a
basis of equal national rights for all races. The troops
were to be billeted. No Hungarian troops were
pursuing him : on Austrian ground he recognized
none but Austrian troops; if attacked, he should re-
pulse force by force.
" Roth-Neuisedl."

Deputy Ilmfasia then gave a short account of the
conversation that passed. It was a repetition of the
above. He pointed out to the attention of the BAN
the preparations made to oppose him at Vienna.
The sitting then adjourned.

The Wiener Zeitung contains various proclamations
to the inhabitants of Vienna, and the address which
the Diet sent to the EMPBROA, which is as fol-
lows :

" Your Majesty—The Diet which, under the por-
tentous events of the last few days, recognised it as
one of its most paramount duties to assure its con-
stitutional Monarch, by a deputation, of its devoted
loyalty, and at the same time of the measures whereby
the calmness of the public mind, as well as the avert-
ing of great dangers may be effected, was saddened
by the lamentable intelligence that your Mujesty had
quitted the vicinity of your capital. No conciliatory
words were spoken in: a constitutional manner re-
specting the object, the duration, the destination of
this withdrawal, to :Ray the apprehensions of the
people, which were inseparable from such an unto•
ward resolve.

" In this serious state of things the Diet has ad-
dressed a call to the people of Austria, and has at the
same time resolved to send a memorial to your
Majesty, openly explaining the state of things, and
cordially assuring the constitutional Monarch of the
sincere and irrevocable attachment of his people.
"This attachment demands confidence—your Ma-
jesty's confidence in the people who will gather round
your throne, confidence in the Representatives whom
this free people has chosen to give expression to its
sentiments.

" The Representatives of the people recognised
their sacred duty by firmly guaranteeing the liberty
of the people who have chosen them, at the same
time giving the throne that immoveable foundation
which power and arbitration cannot give it.
" It would be highly lamentable for the Represen-
tatives of the people, for the Members of the Diet, to
be impeded in the execution of their high duty by
an event which sows the seeds of the most dangerous
mistrust, loosens the bond of devotion to the Crown,
and might even involve that most direful of all
horrors, a civil war, if this danger be not speedily
averted.

'" Full of confidence, therefore, the Diet, through
it a faithful loyal people, calls upon its Monarch to
return to the seat of Government, that his return may
re-animate the faithful sons of the country and de-
prive that enemy of his hope and desire for liberty;
that every unholy attempt, whether reaction or
anarchy, may be rendered abortive, that the work of
the Constitution be not delayed—a work in which
the people of Austria recognise their sole weal, their
quietness ; the guarantee of a happy future.
" Your Majesty, grant all the people, who yearn
for your return, the blessings of peace. Put a stop—
according to the impulse of your noble heart—put a
stop, without delay, to the civil war, which is already
kindled in one quarter, to spread its devouring flames
over the whole,empire.
" Choose for the accomplishment of these mighty
tasks counsellors who are worthy of your confidence
and of that of an honest liberty-loving people. The
thanks and the blessings of this people will be your
Majesty's richest crown.
" In the name of the Constitutionary Diet.
" FRANZ SMOLKE, First Vice• President.
" WISER and CAVALCABO, Secretaries."

The EMPBROS arrived on the 10th, at noon, at
Sieghart Kircher, in the Krems beyond the Danube ;
an ineffectual attempt was made by the inhabitants
of Stein to arrest his progress by breaking down a
bridge, but they were dispersed by the National
Guards and the troops escorting the EMPEROR. His
MAJESTY'S guard consists of 5,000 men End eight
pieces of cannon. Prague is said to be the place of
his destination.

Prince WINDESCHGRATZ has been appointed by the
Court Generalissimo of the troops collected before
Vienna, and the Ban, JELLACHICH is placed
sunder
his command.

It would appear from the following, which appears
in the Breslau Gazette of the 12th, that the attack
on Vienna by the united forces of WINDZS•LIGRITZ,
AVIIRSPEUG, and ETELLACHICH was commenced on the
12th. It says :—Th• Vienna post has failed. No
train, no travellers, and no letters. It then adds a
postscript dated ten at night, as follows :
"The mail train from Vienna has not yet arrived.
We are totally devoid of authentic information of
what has occurred at the Austrian capital ; rumours
innumerable are current. 'We repeat one, but cannot
guarantee its authenticity. It is reported that the
rails have been torn up in a radius of five miles round
Vienna (a German mile is four and a fraction
English miles) • that a junction has been formed
between Jellachich, Auersperg, and Windeschgratz ;
that the bombardment had commenced, that the fire
was briskly rrtumed from the bastions, but that the
city was in flames in many parts."
NEW DIET.
The Deputies who fled from Vienna have assem-
bled at Prague, where they have issued the following
proclamation, convoking a new Diet :
"'We, Deputies to the Diet, invite the Deputies of
our opinion of the whole Austrian empire represented
at the Diet, to assemble on the 20th October at Brunt',
in Moravia, for a conference respecting the measures
to be taken for securing the freedom of the delibera-
tions and the existence of the Constituent Diet for the
interest of the entire monarchy.
"Prague, Oct. 10."
[Here follow the signatures of 20 Deputies, among
which were PALACKY and RiecEn.]
Upwards of 24,000 fugitives have arrived at Prague
from Vienna.
Troops from Bohemia, from Cracow, indeed from
`all parts of the empire, have been ordered to march on
Vienna, and in case an outbreak should take place in
Galicia, after the withdrawal of the Galician regi-
ments, Russian troops, according to an agreement
entered into with Russia, were to cross the frontier
at the requisition of the Austrian Government, and
to be placed under the command of an Austrian
General. It is scarcely necessary to say that these
statements are not to be relied upon.

ITALY.

REVOLT OF THE HUNGARIAN REGI-
MENTS IN LOMBARDY.

A letter from Milan of the 11th, quoted by the
Consttutionale Subalpino of Turin, says— '
"Our city has been witness of P. spectacle, which
will, no doubt, be fruitful in events beneficial to Italy.
The Hungarians, on receiving the news from their
country, assembled in order of battle in the square
before the Palace, and shouted 'Death to the Croats!'
They resolved to march to their country, and gave
Radetzky 24 hours to grant them permission, with-
out which, if refused, they will, nevertheless, take
their departure. Radetzky called out several regi-
ments of Croats. The Hungarians, on being made
acquainted with this, requested the inhabitants to
retire, promising to give a good lesson to any troops
who might attempt to enter the city."
It was currently reported in Paris yesterday that
serious disturbances had broken out in Milan.

MOSEY an COMMERCIAL N S.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
_

In the Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday, the sales
was about 3,000 to 4,000 bales at steady prices. The
Share Ilarket was ratty- r brisk, with a better demand,
more particularly for North-Western shares.

The accounts received to-day from the Continent do
not relieve the anxiety felt concerning the state of affairs
at Vienna, but the tenor of the news strengthens the
impression that the besieging force round the capital is
receiving reinforcements. In France the Government
is now apparently firmer than ever, but confidence
is checked in monetary and mercantile circles, because
of the apprehension that there is a tendency to reaction
that may excite counter demonstrations. The drooping
condition of the Paris Bourse is corroborative of this
impression, for upon so large a majority a rise in
prices, rather than a fall, might reasonably have been
anticipated.
The American letters and papers received to-day
state that the produce markets were rather dull, and
that money continued in request at New Toxic.
At Montreal on the Seth ult. flour was at 28s. 6d. for
superfine. Ashes were in fair request at previous rates.
Produce from the west was arriving freely. The news
by the Acadia had produced some depression in the
markets. The rate of Exchange was 10i. Western
buyers had begun to make their appearance, and the
streets were assuming somethinc, like a stir of business.
Further mining discoveries had been made in Canada
west, and two new companies were to be incorporated.
Near Quebec a gold mine is also stated to have been
found out.

The Grain Market is dull again to-day.
In the position of the Money Market there is no es-
sential variation since the payment of the dividends.
The rate of discount on first class bills is 3 to 3i per
cent., and the bankers have increased balances at com-
mand, for which they are at present unable to obtain
satisfactory employment. Loans upon stock are readily
made at low rates, but the borrowers are few in number.
The Produce Markets are extremely heavy still, and
the holders make continual sacrifices as to price upon
Sugar and other important staples, which they seem re-
solved to press for sale in a manner that really deters
buyers, because the latter naturally expect to make a
better bargain by waiting. The Indigo auctions are
progressing satisfactorily.
In the Stock Market again to-day there has been
more firmness, although business is not lively. Consols
have been 844 to 86, and are now about 844 to 84j.
Exchequer-bills have been at 345. to 375. premium.
Bank Stock is dull, at 183 to 184. The New Three-
and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been quoted 84i to I;
and the Three per Cents. 83i to 831.
There has been an almost entire absence of business
in the Foreign Market. Mexican Stock has been firm,
however, at 19/ to 194. Brazil Stock has been marked
71. Dutch Two-and-a• Half per Cents. have realized
44k. Spanish Five per Cents. have been nominally 1O
to iii; and Portuguese Four per Cents. 221 to 23k.
Railway Shares,though less fluctuating, are not
buoyant, and there must be a more decided reaction
in public feeling to give continued support to prices. It
is a curious circumstance, and not unworthy of note as
we have heard it mentioned in several quarters, that
the transfer offices of the different railways are reported
not to have been by any means so busy of late as the
enormous sales would lead us to infer, a proof
positive that speculative operations have been
carried on to a far greater extent than real sales. The
delay in procuring the delivery of sales after they have
been purchased is also a subject of complaint, and an
alteration is imperatively needed. The committee
should look to it. Consols Stock can be obtained in a
few hours, and surely a day or two, instead of four and
five weeks, would be time enough for share deliveries.
