PRUSSIA•

-- -
Intelligence has been receiTed from Berlin to the 23d.
On the 22d the Posen question was debated in
the Assembly, and was decided, after a stormy dis-
cussion, in favour of the non-separation of the Grand
Duchy into a Polish and a German part, and conse-
quently in favour of its non-annexation to the German
Confederation, by a majority of 7.
The Commander of the Burgher Guard has issued
another proclamation, in which he states that he en-
tertains a firm confidence that a reconciliation be.
tween the Burgher Guard and the workmen will be
effected soon, and that tae trusts no further disturb-
ances of public quiet will take place. The admonition
addressed to the workmen in this proclamation is
very warmly
expressed, and shows that, nevertheless,
strong
apprehensions are entertained that another col-
lision between the Burgher Guard and the workmen
might ensue. These apprehensions are by no means
unfounded if it is considered that much excitement
still prevails among the workmen.

MODENA.

Letters from Modena, of the 16th, state that on
that day a revolutionary placard was posted
at a column of the portico of the public square,
calling upon the Modenese to rise against the
Austrians, and drive away the Duke The Mode-
nese soldiers and the Croatians in vain attempted
several times to tear off the paper ; the crowd
that kept constantly surrounding it during the
whole of the day prevented them with menaces ;
so that at last an orderly was sent to the com-
mandant of the fortress to inform him of the
fast. The account was probably exaggerated ;
for the commandant ordered a signal gun to be
fired to call together his troops, who immediately
hastened to their arms. But the population, on see-
ing this, also dispersed with the cry of " To arms !
to arms 1" and re-assembled in a menacing attitude,
when Commandant Puffer appeared, explaining that
the gun had not been fired with a hostile intention,
and that his troops had received orders to retire.
Tranquillity was immediately restored.

THE CORN TRADE.

BIRILINGITABI,S THURSDAY.—At Gloucester market,
on the 21st, the Wheat trade ruled dull, at the currency
of the previous week. At Worcester, the same day, the.
sale was slow, at rather higher prices. Fine Barley J..
per quarter higher, inferior rather lower. Oats and
Beans offering at a reduction of 6d to 1$ per quarter,
without finding buyers to any extent. Peas in fair de-
mand. During the present week a fair business has
been done in Wheat, at fully previous rates. Barley
nominally unaltered in value, but less in request. Good
White Oats sell readily; but inferior, also black, are
difficult to dispose of. Beans in fair request, and lower
prices are not submitted to. Peas held for some ad-
vance, which has checked the sale. At this day's mar-
ket there was a fair supply of Wheat, and fine new
realised an advance of is per quarter. Oats a slow sale,
but lower prices were not submitted to. Beaus more its
demand, and Egyptians held for some improvement.
Peas fully as dear.
BRISTOL, THURSDAY.—There has been an average
supply of English Wheat. Prices are steady for old and
dry new samples, with a fair demand, whilst inferior lota
of new are vcry unsaleable, though held with more
firmness, but higher prices not obtainable, and the sale
slow. The demand for Flour is rather better this week,
without alteration in price. Of malting Barley we have
this week liberal supplies, both coastwise and foreign,
and previous value has, on actual sales, given way Is to
Is 6d per qr. New Oats dull. Middling qualities of
white 6d per qr lower, and undried black very unsale-
able, and fully is per qr decline. Bens rather dearer.
English old Wheat fetched 541 to 58s per imperial
quarter. English new 46s to 50s per imperial quarter,
foreign white 57s to 60s per 4801bs, ditto red, fine
qualities, 52s to 55s ditto, dittO ordinary ditto 48s to
50s per 4801bs, ditto hard 48s to 52s ditto. English
Malting Barley brought 34s to 38s per imperial quarter,
ditto and foreign grinding 25s to 30s per 4001b5.. Devon
and Welsh Oats 18a to 18s 6d per imperial quarter,
Irish white 20s to 29s per 3201b5, ditto black 174 3d
19s 6,1 per imperial quarter, foreign ditto none.
Beans, English, 32s to 3Ss per 4801bs. English Flour
(seconds) 39s to 41s, American, &c., sweet, none. The
arrivals have been during the week as foliows:— From
Cronstadt, in the Homby, 900 quarts rs of Wheat; froea
Odessa, in the Sovereign, 1,860 quarters of Wheat;
from Cork, in the Juverna, 500 sacks, 330 quarters
150 barrels of Oats; from Waterford, in the Victory,
4) :3' sacks, 100 quarters of Oats. 50 quarters. of Barley;
(rum Yartuoth, in the Glory, 615 quarters of Barley.

BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, OCT. 25.—The sugar
market presents still but a dull aspect—the continually
accountsr rom London causing buyers to be very
cautious ; still there is a fair demand for refining sorts,
of which there are very few on show, and upwards of
[OO hhds. West India have been sold to-day, at former
rates. Sales for the past week arc about 400 Wis. and
tierces.—Bristol Gazette. -

REVIEW OF THE WORK.

La'Mert en the Infirmities of Youth and Maturity.—" There are
scenes is the drama of life which are acted with no spectator but
Conscience ; and of these tke result is ever disastrous. Happy the
mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf
into which such scenes must plunge him I In the book before as
such a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn and instruct the
erring, without impairing one idea that can vitiate a mind not al-
ready tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a style
of masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths of
philosophy and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It is a
production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally,
upon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and
propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. By tin
taught innocence the book is not, of course, needed ; -but wherever
laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing in these
pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of
a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine."

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—Would you allow me to expose a gross piece
of oppression on the part of the authorities of Man•
chester. A. short time since I was summoned to
attend the Borough Court, to answer the charge of
having my shop door open on Sunday morning the
Ist of this month, at ten minutes past eight o'clock.
In compliance with the summons I attended the
Court, and the result was the magistrates convicted
me of this grave charge, and ordered me to pay the
costs, warning me to take care in future and keep
my door shut. 'Was there ever slavery worse than
this ? not even allowed to open one's own door for the
admission of fresh air into our dwellings, although
this is one of the regulations prescribed by medical
men for the prevention of cholera 1 I expressly asked

admit of.

AUSTRIA,

The Provisional Commandant of the National Guard
of Vienna has addressed the following proclamation
to the people of that capital :
"Citizens ! Brothers in arms !—You have read my
note, addressed to the Ban. In the evening I went to
the Committee of the Diet, and an hour after to the
Municipal Committee. It was my first appearance
in this Assembly. I sent an answer to the Bin.
He has not replied in writing. The Municipal
Committee will publish his verbal reply. In
it you will see how little respect Commandant Jel-
lachich pays to your provisional commander. His
Excellency the Ban is astonished at seeing that a
man who is charged to speak in the name of ten
times ten thousand National Guards should display
his anger instead of performing his mission with
dignity.' Would, you have had me preserve
all my coolness in speaking of infamous acts of
violence exercised against the city, because I have
not suffered personally ? Would you have
tolerated this ? Speak The Ban talks of my
opinion. I declared at the bar of the Municipal
Council that I, a man, an individual, Citizen Wenzel
Aiessenhauser, had no opinion. The Provisional
Commander executes the opinion of the Diet, of the
Commune. He represents the opinion of the de-
liberative authorities, but he has no opinion of
his own. Fellow-citizens Brothers in arms !
My judgment on the evasive policy of the Ban
was received with acclamations of applause by
the Committee. My attentive ear enjoyed the
music which a freeman finds in the frank expression
of the resolute sentiments and ideas of freemen.
Fellow-citizens I These men are your fathers. You
are bound to honour them. These men of the Com-
mune, although they are but simple citizens, although
they are but individuals, will at the moment of dan-
ger, although they are but men who earn their live•
lihood by their industry, will at the moment of
danger, I pledge my honour, exclaim 'All is lost
except honour!

Nzw COLONIAL OrrrcE.—lt is the intention of the
Commissioners of Woods and Forests to erect imme-
diately a new Colonial Office, more extensive and better
adapted to the wants of that department of the Govern-
ment than the buildings now used for the purpose in
Downing-street. The new offices will be erected in
Whitehall, on the site now occupied by Lady Dover's
mansion, and will adjoin the Board of Trade, and extend
as far as the Canteen at the Horse Guards. The style
of architecture will be Italian, and the design will be en-
trusted to Mr. Barry, the architect of the New Palace

FRAN CE.

In the course of the discussion on the decree
appointing the 10th December as the day for the
Presidential election, Count Mole said that he had
been told that if the decree should not pass the
Ministry would retire ; he added, that for his part he
thought that the Cabinet would not refuse to add a
service more to the important services it had already
rendered. It was bound to assist the Assembly, and
should have the courage to continue in office until it
had completed the Constitution.
General Cavaignac, President of the Council, who
followed, began by protesting against an expression
of M. Mole, who had said that the Cabinet
threatened to retire. It had, he said, held out no
such menace, and the Assembly and country would
render him the justice to say that he had not imposed
any conditions for his services. He was neither an
ambitious man nor a traitor. Whatever might be the
decision of the Assembly, he and his colleagues would
not make it a Cabinet question. If they considered
their continuance in office useful to the interests
of the Republic, they would retain their func-
tions ; if not, they would not hesitate to re-
sign them without exposing themselves to the charge
of desertion. They were influenced by no sordid
attachment for power, they were animated by a
sincere love of their country and a sincere devotedness
to the Republic. It was they who had recommended
a prompt appeal to the country, because they con-
sidered the adjournment of the question of the Pre-
sidency an immense danger for the Republic.

DEN MARK.
Letters from Copenhagen of the 12th, published
in the Augsburg Gazette, informs us that the new
elections are completed. The result, according to
the reasoning of the Danish papers themselves, will
be the overthrow of the Ministry as soon as the
States assemble, its power having been already
greatly weakened by the cessation of the war.

THE wSITN, LONDON,

CLERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY.)

A powerful young man, a navigator, was charged
before Mr. Tyrn-hitt with creating a disturbance in the
house of Mr. Price, of the Duke of Richmond Tavern,
Chalk-road, and with violently assaulting the landlord ,
waiter, barmaid, and a policeman.
Mr. Price stated that last evening the prisoner came
drunk into the parlour, and said he bad lost his mate,
and wanted a few pence. Witness told him that he
should get no pence there, and recommended him to go
into the tap-room to look for his mate. The prisoner
poured out a volley of the most disgusting abuse, and re-
peatedly struck at witness, who, being a very powerful
man, at length knocked him down. Being removed from
the parlour, he made his way into the tap-room, and
there assaulted the waiter, the barmaid, and
others. A policeman was called in, but the
prisoner knocked him down three times. The
latter, however, kept hold of him, although severely
kicked and beaten, and, with the assistance of another
officer, succeeded in conveying him to the station-house.
The prisoner's wife begged hard for mercy i❑ consi-
deration of his family of young children.
Mr. TYRITHITT said that his outrageous conduct could
not be passed over with impunity. He should sentence
him to pay a crown to the waiter as compensation, and
a fine of one pound for the assault on the policeman, or
to be imprisoned three weeks. The magistrate com-
plimented Mr. Price highly for the manner in which he
had resisted the prisoner.

ITALY.

TURIN.

The Chamber of Deputies at Turin decided on the
21st in favour of a motion for the prolongation of
the armistice with Austria. The Central German
Power has, it is said, proposed the following es a
settlement of the Italian question :—That Lombardy
should remain attached to the Imperial Crown of
Austria, but that it might at the same time form
part of the Italian Diet, which the King of SARDINIA
wishes to create, in conjunction with the Pot% and
the Grand Duke of TUSCANY. In this way Lombardy
would hold the same relation to Italy that the Duchy
of Luxembourg holds to Germany.

It is considered as by no means improbable that
the question may be arranged on this basis, indeed
the Breslau Gazette states that news had been received
that peace bad been concluded with Italy, under the
mediation of England and France, Lombardy still
to belong to Austria, but to have a separate consti-
tution and its nationality acknowledged. The Ger-
man troops are to be -withdrawn from Italy.

THE PRESIDENTIAL
ELECTION.

PARIS, THURSDAY EVENING.

At six o'clock the Assembly divided on the impor-
tant question of the election of President of the
Republic, when the following was the unexpected
result :—Number of votes 818. In favour of the
decree, 687; against it, 252; majority, 355; conse-
quently the election will take place on the 10th of
December. The result excited the greatest surprise.

practical test of upwards of GO years, and by the numerous testi-

perhaps never yet been equalled by anything of the kind hitherto

WALLACHIA AND MOLDAVIA.

The Wiener Zeitung publishes the following, from
the Danubian principalities, under the date of the
14th Oct.:—

The army of occupation sent by the CZAR amounts
to 40,000 veteran troops, the greater number of
whom have served in the Caucasian war.

The artillery amounts to i 0 pieces of cannon. The
horses of this corps d'arrade are excellent, the train
very considerable. The Russians are also furnished
with pontons and every requisite for the construction
of bridges.
Two thousand Turkish troops, stationed at Braila,
have been ordered to Bucharest.

PRINCESS'S THEATRE.

The new farce of The First Peccadillo,Tvhich was
successfully produced here last night, is a clever
adaptation of old materials. Jenkins (Mr. Oxberry)
a warehouseman in the city, is induced by his rakish
friend Sadboy (Mr. J. ' Cooke) to join in certain
nocturnal orgies at the railway tavern, " unbeknown"
to his wife Rosanna (Miss Emma Stanley), who,
good easy soul, imagines that her Jenkins is gone to
Southampton on the business of the firm. Arrived
at the tavern, Jenkins finds that all the party have
sent excuses, and that he is left to " eat supper for
four" alone. His attention is aroused by the arrival
of guests in an adjoining room. Ho peeps; and, horror
of horrors 1 sees his own Rosanna taking a comfortable
the a Vie supper with a dashing military officer.
The acting of Oxberry in this scene was superb. He
bribes the waiter to lend him his apron, and disguised
as " waiter" he attends upon his perfidious Rosanna
and her paramour, but he becomes so overcome by
his feelings that he forgets his disguise, and the
officer is on the point of kicking him out of the
room when Rosanna recognizes him, and all is
explained. The officer is her brother, who, having
just returned from India, and finding her alone, has
invited her to sup with him. The whole weight of
the piece fell on Oxberry, and gallantly he sustained
it. He kept the audience in one continued roar of
laughter. In the tavern scene particularly he was
excessively funny.
