PRUSSIA.

Berlin journals of the 11th inst. have arrived.
The KING had not up to that date come to any de-
cision respecting the acceptance or the non-accept-
ane of the resignation of the Ministers.
On the night of the Bth a popular serenade to the
Deputies of the Left was given in front of their club.
Energetic speeches were delivered from the balcony
by WALDECK, STEIN, BERENDS, REICHENBACII, and
RUGE, the last Deputy in Frankfort.
His Prussian MAJESTY (in conjunction with all
the Zollverein states) has issued a deoree subjecting

to an increased duty, from Sept. 15, to Dec. 31,1848,
a variety of foreign articles, of which the following
are the principal—silks, silk stockings, lace, shawls,
gauze trimmings, gold and silver wares, and silk or
half silk ribbons, on all which articles the additional
duty henceforth will be 110 thalers (about 161. 10s.)
per cwt.; white three (or more than three) threaded
woollen and mohair yarn, half woollen and silk, and
all coloured yarn, which will be subjected to an ad-
ditional duty of 8 thalers (11. 45.) per cwt. English
combing yarns are exempted from the additional
duty. This increase of duty is intended as a reprisal
against France for offering a premium on the export
of certain goods.

POSEN.

The cause of the unfortunate Poles inhabiting the
Grand Duchy of Posen has at length been taken up
by the Berliners. The democratical society has come
out with a warm address to the Poles in Posen, in
which the fresh division of their territory is con-
demned, and in which fervent wishes are expressed
for the independence of Poland. The Poles, them-
selves, have already formed their " league," the ob-
ject of which is to uphold their cause by peaceful
agitation. Membership is not confined to Poles alone.
Archbishop PRYZLIISIU is the Hon. President of the
league, which has its chief club in Berlin.

BOURSE.—Peno, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 13.

THREE O'CLOCK.—The fall, which commenced on
Monday, made further progress to-day, and all sorts of
stocks were exceedingly heavy during the day. As the
elections approach the public uneasiness appears to in-
crease, and the impression is getting stronger every day
that they will indicate increasing hostility to the Go-
vernment. The disaffection of the army is also consi-
dered very serious, and the fact that the newspapers
have been instructed not to speak of it rather adds to
than diminishes the alarm. For the Account, the
French Three per Cents. have fallen 75c.; Five per
Cents. have fallen 50c ; Loan has fallen 25c. For
Money, the Three per Cents. have fallen 75c, and the
Fire per Cents. 50c.; Bons du Tr6sor not quoted; Bank
of France Shares have declined sf. Belgian Bank Shares
not quoted. Two-and-a-Half per Cents. are at 39.

PIEDMONT.

A letter from Turin of the 9th states that the Bri-
tish Minister, Mr. .ABERCROMBY, had received an
official communication from the Ministers of CHARLES
ALBERT announcing the conclusion of a peace with
Austria, the
Emperor of AUSTRIA having agreed
to the last proposals which the KING had made
to him.

It was rumoured at Turin that proposals had been
received from the Roman Government for the forma-
tion of a league offensive and defensive between Sar-
dinia, Tuscany, and Rome.
The Courrier de Marseille publishes a letter dated
Genoa, Sept. 6, Which says—
" Four hundred militiamen embarked for Tuscany the
day before yesterday. They were directed to Leghorn
by order of the Government. It is stated that the gar-
rison of Leghorn has fraternized with the mob, and that
this is the cause of the dispatch of the above corps, who
until now had hoped that they would not be called upon
to interfere, but they should be repelled, as the people on
board the Commerce do Bastia had been.
"Deboni has returned triumphant to Genoa. He has
been proclaimed President of the National Club, the first
meeting of which is to be held this evening. I cannot
say whether it is the presence of Deboni that has occa-
sioned the display of force which is observable daily, but
the fact is that the Government must apprehend some
coup de main. The court-yard of the Ducal Palace is
guarded by 400 or 500 troops of the line.
" The intervention of the French Government is
awaited with much anxiety, and seems more probable
now than ever."

FRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAINE

The Archduke JonN, Vicar of the Empire, has
issued a decree setting forth the nature of the relations
between him and the plenipotentiaries of the various
German powers. He states that whilst, through
their co-operation, the carrying out of the ordon-
names of the central executive will be rendered more
easy, he cannot concede to them the right of exercising
a decisive influence on the resolutions of the central
power, or in any way to act collectively in the ma-
nagement of affairs.

MECKLENBURGH-STRELITZ.
There was an insurrection at Mecklenburgh- Strelitz
on the 7th, and the GRAND DUKE was compelled to
promise the withdrawal of the new electoral law.

SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN.

giving them the power at the same time of choosing a
fifth member as their President.

SICILY.

The French steamer Tonnere has arrived at Toulon
from Naples, which city she left on the ith. When
the last accounts left Messina no decisive advantage
appeared to have been gained on either side. A part
of the city had been already destroyed. The Mes-
sinese, surprised at first, sustained much loss, but
they soon recovered their spirits, and took terrible
revenge. A body of the Neapolitans, who had
penetrated into the city on the Ist, and committed all
sorts of excesses, were forced to retire again into the

citadel, leaving a large number of killed anu
wounded. -The Swiss lost a considerable number,
and the people marched with their heads on bayonets
through the streets of Messina. A steamer, which
left Messina on the 3d, brings reports that the citadel
and town continued still to fire on each other, and it
was thought the town would be reduced to ruins. It
was expected that the Neapolitan squadron would
attempt landing at different points of the island.

A,passenger on board the Tancred says that on
the 3d, at six in the morning, Messina was fired on
by eighteen gun-boats, as well as by the citadel, but
that the town answered with such spirit that the
gun-boats were damaged and compelled to retire.
They then went to the Terra IV uova, where they
threw a great number of balls to clear the shore of
some batteries that were established there. The
Sicilians made feint of a retreat, having spiked their
guns, when the gun-boats landed 500 or 600 Swiss,
upon whom the Sicilians turned with fury and mas-
sacred a part, making prisoners of the rest. At the
departure of the Tancred, at half-past two in the
afternoon of the 3d, the advantage appeared to be on
the side of the Sicilians. Several houses were then
burning in the town. The shells passed so close ever
the British and French ships moored in the port that
they were obliged to change their position. The
Tancred towed out several merchant vessels which
were exposed to the fire. Most of the Neapolitan
fleet had gone to Reggio. A frigate and five stea-
mers which had remained entered the harbour to
join in the combat, but were soon forced to retire.
The gun-boats had taken shelter behind the citadel.
It was reported that the French and English Ambas-
sadors at Naples had united in urging the suspension
of hostilities on the Neapolitan Government.

PRUSSIA.

A Berlin letter of the Bth says :—" The most con-
tradictory rumours are circulating in town. Some
say that M. PINDER, superior president of Silesia,
was to be charged with the formation of the new
Cabinet; others continue to pretend that Messrs.
PHILLIPPE and UNRUH have a good chance. Messrs.
BECKERATH, MEVISSEN, &c., were also spoken of.
It is a complete break up. All these Tumours are so
many suppositions. An absurd rumour declares
that the KING had refused to accept the resig-
nations of Ministers ; that the proclamation to the
army was accorded, and that Ministers remained,
declaring that they yielded to the wish of his MA-
JESTY ! The news from Frankfort and Schleswig
have augmented the agitation. The Funds have
fallen 11 per cent., and Railway Shares from 3 to 4
per cent. There reigns in the city an increasing
emotion as in the days of March.

EXTRAORDINARY

ESCAPE.

The locality of Bradwell and COggeshall, Essez,bas
for a very long period been infested with a daring gang
or burglars, to the great terror of the inhabitants.:' One
of the gang, named Wade,- was at the last assizes con-
victed of burglary, when his confession, coupled with
other circumstances, led to the belief that Samuel Crow.
a cab driver, at the Black Horse Inn, Coggeshall, wtp
the ringleader of •the desperadoes. It has lately beer
supposed that Crow was concealed on the premises of the.
Black Horse, kept by a person named Fi'ench, and on
Wednesday last Superintendent Cook entered the house
after having procured a sufficient force to surround the
place. 'The first person they met was the landlorkt,-
whom they told'the object of their visit, when' he -posi,
tively asserted that Crow was not there, but made seve-
ral contradictory statements •as to what be knew of
Crow's whereabouts. The house and premises 'were
then thoroughly searched, and some of the pollee-re-
mained in charge of the house. About half-past ten
o'clock at night they were induced to go into -f
room over' 'the' 'granary, which they had ffeetuentry
visited during' the previous part of the day.' In' the
ceiling of the-room they -perceived that a holeovhich
had previously _ attracted their attention was ren
'dered so much larger 'as to admit a man's bodY. On
of the constables-turned' on his light, and ascended the
roof, where he had a distinct opportunity of 'viewing the
prisoner crouched in a corner, and immediately cried
out, " Here he is." Another policeman also had a good
view of the prisoner, and called upon him to surrender,.
when he said, " Don't hit' me with your staves, but go
down, follow you like a man." The- men Went
down, supposing it was impossible-for Crow to escape
from his hiding place, hut the officers had no sooner de-
scended than their notice-was drawn to a lend erash,
which was subsequently found to have been occasioned
by the prisoner dashing through the tiled roof, severely
lacerating one of his hands; 'and otherwise: injuring his
person. The alarm was raised, and the pursuit core-
menced; brit we regret to say`that Crow escaped by
running along the roofs of several houses, 'and-After
juniPinginte the garden of,Mr.,Huawick, made. his-way
into Abbey Wood. His route has; been- since traced for
some distance, but without leading to a capture., French
and some others -have sine been apprehended. A
brother of Crow has also been taken on a charge of Ear--
bouring and concealing him, several articles of clothing„
&C., and a handkerchief covered with blood, Which be-
longed to Crow, having been found upon him. Active
means are being used for getting up the evidence against
the prisoners already in custody, and in devising mea-
sures for the capture of Crow.—Essex Paper. ,

t-SH STATE PROSECUTIONS.
COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH__
TRIAL OF MR. T. F. 111tAGETER.

DUDLIN, TUESDAY EVENING.—This morning Mr.
Meagher was conducted to the Court of Queen's
Bench by the Confederate Clubs, and the streets were
thronged with noisy Repealers, as on yesterday. The
court was densely crowded. At ten o'clock Chief
Justice Blackburne took his seat on the bench. The
jury was sworn, and the traverser charged with utter-
ing a seditious speech at the Music Hall, Dublin, on
the night of the 15th March, 1848.
The Attorney-General stated the case.
Mr. Hodges, the Government reporter, proved the
report of the speech, and Major Drew the inuendoes.
A juror asked the Gallant Major were there not as
violent speeches as that made in Conciliation Hall ?
He thought there were very violent speeches made
there.

Why were they not prosecuted ?
Witness could not say.
A buzz of approbation from the friends of Mr.
Meagher followed these extraordinary questions.
Mr. Butt then replied in an elaborate and eloquent
speech. •
Mr. Sergeant WARREN replied, and the Chief Jus-
tice charged the jury. The whole proceedings
differed but slightly from those of yesterday.
At five o'clock the jury came tinto court, and the
foreman informed his Lordship there were two who
could not agree.—(Laughter.)
His Lordship replied, they should decide the
question.
The Foreman—We are unanimously agreed, the
speech was made.—(Laughter.)
The Court adjourned to nine o'clock, ,
TUESDAY NIGHT.—At nine o'clock the Chief
Justice entered the court, when the jury. were called

in.
The Clerk of the Crown—Gentlethen, have you
agreed to your verdict ?
Foremen—No, sir.
CHIEF JUSTICE—Are you likely to agree ?
Foreman—By no means, my Lord.
A Juror—My Lord, there is one gentleman on the
jury who says he will remain here for a fortnight,
rather than agree to a verdict.—(Great laughter.)

RUSSIA

ST. PETERSBURGIT, Al AT 6.—By command of the
EMPEROR, the sum of 6,000,000 of roubles was trans-
ferred on the 2d of this month from the reserve store,
in the vaults of the Fortress of Peter-Paul, to the
vaults of the credit expedition, for the purpose of aug-
menting the ready cash of the treasury of that expe-
dition, which had been diminished in consequence, of
the payments for the purchase of the public funds for
the transfer capital payment of the gold washers.
From the official scrutiny and revision of the State
bonds lying in the reserve store vaults of the Peter-
Paul fortress, it appears that after the deduction of
the above sum of 6,000,000, there still remains the
sum of 109,588,`95 roubles 19 copecs silver.
The merchants of Moscow have placed 50,000,000
silver roubles at the disposal of the EMPEROR. The
various provinces, at vast sacrifices, have offered to
furnish horses and provisions. Almost all the in-
fluential and wealthy Russians who are abroad are
returning to Russia. Yesterday evening the family
of Prince GALL-max arrived here from Paris, on
their road to Russia. The Russian nobles are flock-
ing round their monarch more than ever, and there
is no longer a doubt that preparations for war are
being made on an. extensive scale. Meantime M.
VON NAG ENDORY continues the assurance that the
EMPEROR entertains the most pacific intentions. The
report that the EMPEROR had left St. Petersburgh
for Riga is incorrect. His 'MAJESTY is still at St.
Petersburgh, and held a grand review a day or tw o
before the sailing of the steamer.—Cologne Gazette.

ITALY.

LOMBARDY AND VENICE.

While CHARLES ALBERT and RADETSKY were
fighting under the walls of Verona, a very warm
affair took place at Piave between the Austrians,
commanded by Count N lIGENT, t'nd the Roman troops,
commanded by General FERRARI. The battle lasted
five hours, and it is said the Roman troops received a
check.

Venice and the Venetian provinces are in a state
of great alarm.
Ihe Putria of the 9th says, that 500 volunteers
and 3,000 Neapolitan troops embarked at Ancona on
the sth, and were received with great demonstrations
of joy.
It is said that General BIANCHI and a daughter of
Count NUGENT are guarded as hostages at Treviso.
The blockade of Venice is said to be quite ridicu•
lous, merchant vessels entering with perfect ease.

ROME.

The Piedmontese Gazette of the 12th, publishes
the followieg.—
" Roam, MAY s.—Order of the day from the Minister
of War to the Mattis. It has pleased our common
Father and Sovereign to call me to the administra-
tion of the war department, at this solemn moment,
which promises so mach glory to the ancient city
of Rome, anti to all Italy. The influence of that
august hand, which has already blessed you on
the Qairinal when you entered on campaign
cannot be withdrawn from you to whatever part of Laly,
or to whatever noble enterprise you may be led. The
warriors of the magnanimous Charles Albert, whom
you are going to join, as well as the brave Tuscans arid
Neapolitans, will compose an army whom no obsiaclp
will be able to conquer, and who will rid themselves of
their proud enemies, however numerous they may be.
Nevertheless, soldiers, the immortal Pius IX., in order
to increase and strengthen your force and your courage,
has graciously resolved to form a corps d'elite of six
thousand more combatants, who will on every occasion
stimulate your ardour. I it., tabled to assume the grsve
though honourable responsibility of this command,
knowing so well as I did, my unfitness for the office;
but love of my country, and a filial respect fur the
orders of our supreme critef, the safety of this high en-
terprise, and the joy of finding myself in the midst of
you, who will give an example of courage, of discipline,
and of loyalty to the whole world, have contributed to
make me accept this Ministry with pleasure and with
readiness. You will have me, soldiers, rather as a
companion than as a chief; and my heart tells me that
for you is preparing a glory, the memory of which will
be eternal.
(Signed) "D. PIIILLIP-DORIA-PAMPHILI."

P ()SEN.

A report from General WEDELL, dated the 11 th
instant, from Piatkouczarne, where the capitula-
tion was to have been carried into effiect, stated
that only thirty-five of the insurgent Pole.
were found in arms. The rest of the 8,000
or 9,000 had gradually dispersed or separated
into small bands, and were selling their horses and
equipments, and committing every kind of mischief
and plundi.: (allerlie unfug and plunderung). De-
tachments are sent in all directions in pursuit of
those dangerous stragglers, and a general battue of
the woods on the banks of the Wartha was ordered to
take place yesterday, and thus the principal corps of
insurgents may be regarded as completely overcome,
although they have escaped the bonds of acknow-
ledged surrender. MIEROSLAWSKI, their former
leader, who was condemned to death and pardoned
at Berlin, has been captured, with three of his com-
panions. They were discovered concealed in the
house of a nobleman, about twelve miles from Posen.
He will be sent under a strong escort to the citadel
of Custrin, to suffer most probably a second condem-
nation, and at least indefinite captivity.

and Executor went on with the running, seconded by
Tuscan, Sylvan following Cawrouch. 'There was no
further change until they got to the bottom turn, where
Tuscan and Cawrouch were disposed of, Sylvan bein:

FRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAINE

ARRIVAL OF THE ARCHDUKE JOHN.
On Tuesday, the 11th, the German Parliament met
and the President stated that the report of the festivity
committee recommended that, on the arrival of
the Administrator, he should be waited on by the
Committee, who should, in the name of the Assembly,
welcome him to Frank fort, and then, on ascertaining
when it would be convenient for him to appear
amongst them, a deputation of fifty Members should
be chosen to conduct him to St. Paul's Church.
A Member of the extreme left now ascended the
tribune and stated that, as assertors of the sovereignty
of the people, it was beneath the dignity of the As-
sembly to wait on the Administrator—he should wait
on them.

On this, old Professor A RNDT, of Bonn, in a
speech replete with good feeling, replied, and ex-
pressed the opinion of almost the whole house when
he asserted that the Administrator having been chosen
by them, the representatives of the people, so much
the more were they bound to honour him and uphold
his authority.
On the question being put from the chair, the
measures recommended by the committee were car-
ried by an overwhelming majority; leaving only a
miserable minority of about 20 dissentients.
The Deputation of Fifty was then chosen, and the
House adjourned.

During the whole day the principal line of street
was thronged by people in anxious expectation of the
ARCHDUKE'S arrival. The black, red, and gold flag
was waving from most of the houses ; this, indeed,
with here and there a few wreaths of oak, &c., about
the windows, was all the festive decoration that the
short notice of the Administrator's coming ad-
mitted of.

At half-past six in the evening Archduke Jourt,
Administrator of Germany, arrived amid the roar of
cannon, ringing of bells, and the acclamations of an
immense multitude. The Administrator was dressed
in the grey uniform of an Austrian general. Herr
VON ANDRIAN, one of the deputation sent to Vienna,
sat beside him. He came in a light caleche and six.
He bowed frequently, and stopped now and then in
acknowledgment of the joyful acclamations of the
multitude. He was escorted by the burgher cavalry,
and received with all the usual military honours.
The ARCHDUKE alighted at the Hotel de Russie.

AUSTRIA.

Accounts from Vienna cf the Bth state, that on
that day Baron PILLERSDORFF and the whole of his
Ministry resigned, in consequence of the differences
which have arisen between the Cabinet and the
Committee of Public Safety.
- The following account of these transactions appears
in the Wiener Zeitung, of the 9th instant :
"The Minister of the Interior, ad interim, who at the
same time provisionally filled the post of President of the
Cabinet, has this day resigned those offices into the hands
of the Archduke, as Regent of the empire.
" Hereupon the Regent wrote the following autograph
letter to the Ministers :

"‘ Dear Baron Von Pillersdorff,—As you have re-
quested to be relieved from the commission imposed upon
you to form a new Ministry, and desire my sanction,
I hereby accede to your request, and delegate this
office to my Minister of Agriculture, Trade, and Com-
merce, Baron Von Doblhoff."

" 'Dear Baron Doblhoff—Baron Von Pillersdorff hav-
ing declined the mission to form a new Ministry, I am
induced, in full confidence of your patriotism, to com-
mission you to lay before me, with as little delay as
possible, your proposals for the formation of a new
Cabinet, and, iu the meantime, to discharge the office of
Minister of the Interior, the Minister of Foreign Affairs,
and of the Imperial household.' "
" Baron Von Wessenberg, who was delegated according
to constitutional forms to attend his Imperial Highness
the Archduke John to Frankfort, in order, as respon-
sible Minister, to maintain the correspondence between
the Regent and the Cabinet Council, has adopted mea-
sures that, during the short interval of his absence, all
important reports and communications shall be sent after
him ; in case they require any immediate attention the
decision of the Cabinet Council shall be obtained ; but in
the current chancery affairs the business shall be trans-
acted by the head of the department *of the Interior un-
der ordinary circumstances."

HUDSON'S BAY COMPANY.

The Earl of LINCOLN gave notice that, on Monday,
he should ask the Under-Secretary for the Colonies
whether •Government intended to withhold from this
company fresh grants of land in our North Ame-
rican territories until the report of the Com-
mittee appointed to inquire into the state of this
company had been laid upon the table. In the event of
his receiving an unfavourable answer, he should feel it
to be his duty to move an address to the Crown upon the
subject.
