WALLACHIA AND MOLDAVIA

The Borsenhalle gives the following accounts,
dated Bucharest, 28th July :
" The Russian force in Wallachia has completely
ceased to advance. The Porte claims a right to inter-
vene alone, and has acknowledged the revolution of
Bucharest."

Letters from Jassy announce that General Du•
11 Abl L is preparing to quit Moldavia.

AUS'T'RIA.

The Breslau Gazette, of the 9th iNstant, states
that the victory gained by the Austrian army was
celebrated at Vienna, on the 7th, by the garrison
and the National Guard.
Advices from Milan to the 7th have arrived. The
pillaging of the city by the Austrians had somewhat
abated. The Prince of SCLIWARTZENBURG had been
formally appointed Governor. Cannon were pointed
against the city, which was declared in a state of
siege. Among the minor occurrences worthy of
mention, we may observe that a reduction of the
duty on salt had been conceded.

THE ENGINE-DRIVERS OF THE NORTH-
WESTERN RAILWAY.

Mr. THORNELY, as soon as the House had been
constituted, rose,
,he said, to take a course which was
rather unusual during the early sitting of the House
—he wished to put a question to the Hon. Gentleman
the Member for Kendal (Mr. Glyn), the chairman of
the North Western Railway Company, on a matter of
the utmost public importance, as it had reference to the
working of that line—he alluded to the dispute between
the engine-drivers and the directors. As the Hon. Gen-
tleman was not in his place on Friday when the question
was put to the President of the Board of Trade, he
wished to ask him whether such arrangements had been
made by the company as would secure the proper work-
ing of the line and the safety of the public?
Mr. GLYN said, I am extremely obliged to my Hon.
Friend that he has given me an opportunity of
answering the question. I regret I was absent en
Friday, when the question was put to the President of
the Board of Trade. 1 have much satisfaction in being
enabled to inform my Hon. Friend and the House that
provision has been made by the company for the efficient
working of the trains on the London and North-Western
Railway, as a very considerable proportion of the old en-
gine-drivers and their assistants had returned to their
duty by whom, and with the aid of the experienced men
whom we have been enabled to secure from other lines
of railway, our trains from this morning and henceforth
will be worked as efficiently as they were by those who
have left the service. I mention this with the greater
satisfaction because many Hon. Gentlemen present must
be anxious to know that no surrender was intended
to take place on the part of the company
to the men who have taken this rash step.—(Hear,
hear.) I ought to mention perhaps that the whole of
the proceedings that have taken place have been dictated
by a club, which, yesterday morning, transmitted orders
to the other lines in the north for all the engineers em-
ployed by the North Western, who subscribed to the
club, to leave the service. This morning, lam happy to
say, that, through the measures taken by the Superin-
tendent, this attempt has been frustrated, and all the
men in the north remain in their employment. If I did
not wish to trespass further upon the time of the House,
I might tell the House of tricks played by the men who
have left the service, but having got rid of them I have
no doubt file public service will be conducted with the
usual regularity and punctuality.
The matter then dropped.
