is not one :of more importance than the reformation of
those evils which affect the sanitary condition of the
people. In the report of the Association now before
us the inestimable importance of the subject
is very fairly and very forcibly set forth. The fol-
lowing, for example, is a most emphatic epitome of
the evils consequent upon the present state of the
sanitary laws, and the contrary benefits sought to
be established by the Association. " It should be borre
in mind"—so runs the paragraph to which we have
alluded—" that, though not a charity, the Association
has the strongest claims on the charitable, for it aims
at preventing the very evils which charities are
formed to palliate. It would substitute health for
disease, cleanliness for filth, order for disorder, eco-
nomy for waste, prevention for palliation, justice for
charity, enlightened self-interest for ignorant selfish-
ness, and bring home to the poorest and meanest
among us, in purity and abundance, the sim-
plest blessings which ignorance and negligence
have lung combined to limit or to spoil—Air, Water,
and Light." If such be the objects of the Associa-
tion, and if they be really qualified to promote
such objects, every true philanthropist must
sincerely wish them God-speed. In this, as in
every other great question, there must always be
a difference of opinion on minor particulars,
but, as regards the principle at issue, it is hardly
possible to imagine a doubt or objection that could by
any means be started, on the terrible state, not only of
destitution, but of degradation, in which the
poorer classes of England exist. There is un-
happily no possibility of entertaining two opinions
upon this roint. That they do exist in an atmosphere
poisoned by noxious exhalations of all descriptions,
that their miserable dwellings are deprived of all
the necessary comforts of sufficient light and free
ventilation, is indubitable. This side of the question
admits of no doubt ; neither is it possible to con•
ceive any doubt as to the advisability and necessity
of some immediate amelioration. This is one of the
subjects of which we sincerely hope the public will not
be forgetful. The report to which we have already
alluded expresses a regret that the session of 1847 passed
away without legislation. We certainly coincide with
that regret, and earnestly do we desire to have no
similar cause for lamenting the present session.
There are other equally important measures, it is
true, which we are desirous of seeing speedily put in
progress ; yet this sanitary question has the right of
precedence, for, to quote again the words of the
report, " the improvement of the physical circum-
stances of the people is a necessary preliminary to
those higher reforms which the philanthropist and
the educationist desire to carry out."

A letter from St. Prtersburgh of the 11th of
March says—" The Emperor has given instructions
to the Minister of War to place the troops on a war
footing. His Imperial Majesty feels bound to adopt
this step by the terms of existing treaties with other
Powers, and in the event of a necessity arising, for
affording all the protection in his power to the claims
of legitimacy against the destructive advance of
revolutionists an 1 anarchists."

A letter from Milan, of the 14th, states that the
Viceroy, having endeavoured to raise a loan of one
million livres (860,000 f.) received several refusals ;
but at length M. PONTI consented to advance it on
a mortgage of his villa of the Lake of Como, and on
his private estates in the province of Treviso.

Letters from Rome of the 11th state, that the Con-

The Roman Bank had temporarily suspended its
payments, in consequence of not receiving the specie
it expected from different parts of Italy. This mea-
sure has spread the greatest alarm among the holders
of nutes and the small traders. A sacrilege had been
committed in the church of St. Peter. The shrine,
containing the head of St. Andrew, with about
30,000 crowns' worth of jewels, was forced open on
the 10th, and the precious relics stolen.
The Risorgimento of the 17th inst. brings accounts
from Milan of the 14th. The Viceroy was, to leave
on the following day for an estate in Germany,
whither lie had caused to be conveyed his
library, museum, and all his private property. The
seal of the Government would, it was believed, 19
transferred from Milan to Verona for greater security/
being there placed under the protection of the fortifi-
cations, which extend from Legnano to Saltsburg.
The correspondent of the Risorgimento observes, that
this retreat to the Adige was variously commented
upon, and that it was evident that Austria had re-
nounced all idea of attacking Piedmont.

The Patria, Florence journal, of the 14th instant,
announces that M. LAROCHEFOUCAULD, Minister Ple-
nipotentiary of France, had resigned his post, after
sending in his adhesion to the Republican Govern-
ment, and taken leave of the GRAND DUKE on the 13th.

Madrid journals of the 15th have arrived.

The Minister of Finance introduced, on the 14th,
into the Chamber of Deputies, a Bill for the settle-

ARRIVAL of PRINCE JOIN VILLE
AND THE DUKE D'AUMALE, AND

THEIR FAMILIES.

The Lords of the Admiralty have this morning
received intelligence of the safe arrival of the
Prince and Princess Joinville, with the Duke and
Duchess d'Aumale, and their families.
The unfortunate exiles arrived in the French
Government steamer Solan, at Dartmouth, yester-
day morning ; having started from Lisbon, on the
15th instant.

At half past eight the Princes landed, and proceeded
in two carriages and four to the Totnes station of the
South Devon Railway, and took their departure for
Maidenhead, where, we understand, they posted to
Claremont.

The Prince Joinville and the Duke d'Aumale ar-
rived at Buckingham Palace this forenoon, and had
an audience with his Royal Highness Prince Albert.

AUSTRIA,

GERMANY,

AND PRUSSIA.

Advices from Vienna, to the 16th have been re•
ceived. At that period the capital was tranquil.
A Provisional Council has been appointed, corn-
posed of the following popular members :—The Baron
STIFET, Baron DOPPELIOF, STARNETZ, MEYER, and
ROBERTS. Count D'APPONI has resigned his office
of Grand Chancellor of Hungary.
The palace of Prince METTERNICH, within the city
of Vienna, has not been injured by the populace. On
the 15th, however, the mob erected a gallows in the
front of his palace, and inflicted capital punishment
on the effigy of its most unpopular proprietor. This
exhibition continued during the entire day, nor did
the authorities dare to check it.

A correspondent writing from Vienna, of the 14th,
says :—" The Princess Metternich has taken her
departure along with the prince, her husband. The
Prince has defended his political system to the last
extremity. The States were not able to deliberate
in consequence of the cries of ' A bas Metternich,'
which drowned the voices of the speakers. At nine
o'clock a deputation of the States having gone to the
palace to request of the Emperor to send away Prince
Metternich, the Prince himself came to them and
said, I have this moment placed my resignation in
the hands of his Majesty the Emperor.' Upon which
the deputation answered :—' We thank you, you
have saved the country.' " The accounts from
Prague and Gratz also speak of popular movements
in these cities.

The following Imperial decree was issued on the
14th :

" Considering the present political circumstances,
we have resolved to assemble around our throne the
States of our German and Sclavonian kingdoms, as
well as the central congregations of our Lombardo,
Venetian kingdom, by deputies, in order that they
may give us counsel on legislative and administrative
questions. It is on this account that we have given
orders that that meeting shall take place on the 3d of
July next, or later if it cannot take place then.
" Vienna, March 14." "FERDINAND.
On the 15th the EMPEROR took a drive in his
carriage through several of the principal streets of the
capital, accompanied by his brother. The people
wanted to take the horses from the carriage and draw
it themselves, but at the express instance of the EM-
PEROR they refrained from such an act of servility.
A letter from Hanover, of the 18th, says—

" A deputation from various states waited on the King
yesterday, to enforce the claims of the people to various
reforms. His Majesty, after hearing several of its mem-
bers, asked time for consideration; but the delay was
objected to, as altogether needless, and in half-an-hour
the King's reply was made known to them. This im-
portant document grants, first, freedom of the press;
secondly, the convention and public deliberation of the
States; thirdly, an amnesty for all political offences. Nor
were the rest of their demands rejected, although the
royal reply, in that respect, is less specific, and therefore
less satisfactory."

Had King ERNEST hesitated to accede to the de_
mands of the people, it is said to have been their in.
tention to have expelled King ERNEST and his son,
and to hare proclaimed Prince GEORGE of Cambridge
King of Hanover.

On the evening of the 16th disturbances again
broke out in Munich. A crowd assembled in front
of the KING'S palace, where they declared LOLA
MoNTEs was concealed. They broke the windows
and erected barricades. The troops were called out
to defend the palace, and several persons were
wounded.

The magistrates announced, by order of the Mi-
nister of the Interior, that Lor.4 Morcras had
arrived at Carlsruhe, and had gone from thence to
Frankfort-on-the-Main.

At midnight the rappel was beaten throughout the
city. The prefecture of the police was attacked,
and the prisoners set at liberty. The troops arrived
at eight o'clock the following morning, and put an
end to the disorder. Another crowd then gathered
in front of the palace, but it was dispersed by the
military, though not till it had smashed the windows
of the palace. The students and the bourgeoisie
supported the military. _ _ _

The Gazette de Cologne of the 20th gives the fol-
lowing from Berlin :

" BERLIN, MARCIT 18. The day has been a san-
guinary one. The crowd directed its steps towards the
square in front of the palace, in order to testify to the
Kin', the gratitude of the people for the ordonnance
which convokes the States for the 2d of April next, and
grants the liberty of the press. All of a sudden some
individuals began to hoot and threaten the military.
The dragoons charged, and were repulsed. They then
attacked the people with their sabres. The cry of
Aux Armes' was immediately to be heard on all sides.
Barricades wero erected in the twinkling of an eye, and
the massacre between the citizens and the military
commenced. The number of killed is computed at
upwards of 100 persons.
" 3,Liacet 18, Firs o'CLocc —The decree which con-
vokes the states of the United Diet of the 2d of April
has been received with enthusiasm, but that which has
tended most to calm the public mind is the news that
four Ministers have given in their resignation, namely,
De,Thile, Eichhorn, Savigny, and Bodelschwing. Some
add the name of Stolberg. It was also said that Messrs.
de Vinke, de Schwerin, Camphausen, and Auerswald
have been recalled, and that the two latter have arrived.
" HALY-PAST SEVEN, EVENlNG.—Tranquillity is re-
stored within the last half-hour. No more musket-shots
are to be heard. Unfortunately ten cannon-shots were
Aced, a measure which was not only imprudent, but
altogether useless.
" HALP PAST NINE P.M.—The disorders are not yet
at an end. A violent fire has at this moment broken out
in the quarter called Louisen. The town is so full of
soldiers and guard so strictly kept that the couriers
cannot leave. No newspapers are delivered in the city.
I learn positively that the garrison of Berlin is about to
retire. The Landwehr has been sent for to guard the
town."

The Cologne Gazette also publishes the decree of
the King of PRUSSIA, dated Berlin the ISth,
convoking the Diet; to which is annexed the fol-
lowing :

"Law concerning the liberty of the Press—the cen-
sorship is abolished, and all laws relating thereto are
abrogated. Offences of the press shall be tried by the
ordinary tribunals. The penal laws in vigour are
applied."
Here follow the provisions relative to the caution
money, the declaration, and other formalities having
for their object the giving guarantees to the State.

A letter from Berlin, of the 18th, says—
" Tranquillity is restored and confidence is reviving.
The decree of the King, convoking th• United Diet for
the 2d of April, has been received with enthusiasm.".

It is evident, therefore, that there is no foundation
for the rumour that the King of PRUSSIA. had abdi-
cated, and had been driven from Berlin.
Tha Cologne Gazette adds, that it had neither re-
ceived the Universal Gazelle of Prussia, nor the
Zeilungshalle, two Berlin evening papers of the 18th.
" COLOGNE, 19Tu.—The deputation sent to Berlin was
favourably received by the King, who gave it the most
formal assurances."
111 BERLIN, 18.—The liberty of the press granted by the
King, and the convocation of the Diet for the 2d April,
have filled the people with joy. The crowd proceeded
to the Royal-square, to express its gratitude to the
King. At two o'clock the King appeared at the balcony
and was enthusiastically cheered. In the meantime, how-
ever, a troop of dragoons arrived on the square, and the
people cried out, Back with the soldiers.' The Colonel,
M. de Priethwitz, resisted the injunction, and charged
the multitude, the dragoons making use of their swords.
.
It said that the posts of infantry throughout the
capital likewise fired upon the people. The cry, To
arms!' then became general. The citizens dispersed
through the city, and the population tumultuously as-
sembled in the streets. Barricades were erected in every
d. irection, and a sanguinary collision ensued between the
inhabitants and the troops. Two soldiers were mas-
sacred on the square of Doenhof. An officer who had
fired on the people was likewise killed. The number of
dead at this moment amounts to about 100. If the gar-
rison does not evacuate the city to-night we may expect
a dreadful massacre. This instant I have heard several
volleys of platoon firing."
The Borsenhalle of the 18th has letters from Ko-
nigsberg to the 14th instant, which report great
disturbances in that city on the preceding day.
An immense concourse assembled around the
building in which the Municipal " Ressource" was
sitting, and refused to disperse when the meeting
broke up, although implored to do so by M. IVALEs•
RODE, a great popular favourite.
The enraged multitude proceeded to the police-
station, where they tore up the pavement,
broke all the windows, hewed the shutters in
pieces with axes, and vowed vengeance
against the Police President, LAUTERBACII,
A man universally detested. The gendarmerie
aad police could not arrest the violence of the crowd,
and the soldiery were equally impotent. At length
a furious charge was made upon,. the people by the
Cuirassiers, who displayed the slime brutal ferocity
as at Cologne. Many peaceable citizens were
seriously wounded, and two killed. Several were
arrested and sent to prison.
On the'Llth the tumult was still Tory alarming.

The address forwarded to Berlin by the Municipal
" Ressource" has provoked his MAJESTY to dissolve
the assembly definitively, and the framers of the
obnoxious document are to be prosecuted ; although
the proceedings are temporarily suspended by the
police.
A fresh outbreak occurred at Dresden on the 15th,
which was not wholly suppressed at the departure of
the courier.

The Leipsic Gazette of the 16th announces the
formation of a new Saxon Ministry, composed of
Dr. BRAUN, Minister of Justice ; Dr. Von DER
PFORDTEN, Minister of the Interior and (ad interim)
of Foreign Affairs ; M. GEORGI, Minister of Fi-
nance ; and M. Von HOLTZENDORF, Provisional
Minister of War.

The following is the programme of the new
Cabinet :

" PROCLAMATION.

" To the people of Saxony—Called by his Majesty
the King to the bead of affairs, the undersigned have
unanimously agreed to the following fundamental prin-
ciples and measures, viz., the swearing of the troops to
the constitution; the abolition of the censorship for ever;
a press law without the system of concessions and
securities (cautionen); reform of the legal system
on the basis of publicity and oral process; trial
of general offences by jury; reform of the electoral
law; recognition of the right of association, with pre
cautionary measures against abuse; legal arrange-
ment of ecclesiastical affairs in the spirit of tolerat►on
and equality; proposal for the revision of the federal
tariff (Vereinzolltarif); co-operation for the timely for-
mation of the great German Confederation, and the re-
presentation of the people therein . His Majesty has
been pleased to approve of these measures and princi-
ples. Accordingly, the necessary steps will be taken to
carry them into effect.
"'The Saxon people will duly appreciate the great im-
portance of the royal resolution, and do so by maintain-
ing tranquillity and order in the country.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

PROCEEDINGS AT PARIS.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.

The following telegraphic dispatch was received in
Paris on Monday :

"METZ, MARCH 20, 10 O'CLOCK, A.M.
"THE COMMISSARY OF THE GOVERNMENT TO THE
MINISTER OF THE INTERIOR.

" Intelligence reached Mayence the day before yester-
day that the people of Berlin, after vainly demanding
from the King the grant of a constitution, had attacked
and overpowered the troops of the garrison. The King
at first sought rofuge in the fortress of Spandau, six
miles from Berlin, and afterwards fled in the direction
of Vienna. 500 men were killed, and a greater number
wounded. This intelligence was brought to Metz by the
guard of the Bavarian stage-coach."

The Journal des Debats and the Constitutionnel ex-
press great doubts as to the authenticity of this in-
telligence, the only authority for which is the report
of the conductor of the Bavarian mail. The Cologne
Gazette, which has intelligence from Berlin to the
18th, says not a word of the flight of the KING ; and
by the steamer Queen of Scotland, which arrived at
Hull yesterday, from Haraburgh, we have intelligence
from Berlin as late as noon on Saturday, at which
hour Berlin continued in tranquillity. The following
is the news from Berlin brought by the Queen of
Scotland :

" BERLIN, MARcE 18.

" The deputation which arrived from Cologne for the
purpose of presenting a petition to the King returned to
that city at nine o'clock this morning.
"It is generally understood that the meeting of the
General Congress, originally determined upon for the
27th, will be held on the 4th of April.
" Berlin continued in tranquillity up to the departure
of the train for Hamburgh at noon of Saturday.'

With regard to the state of Paris itself, a letter
dated Monday evening says—
This day has been the quietest we have passed here
since the glorious days of February. With the
exception of a procession of the chiffunniers, and
another of the water-carriers, both of which
important corporations went this morning to the
Hotel de Vile to give their adhesion to the
Republic, we have had nothing in the shape of ex-
citement in our streets. Every one is absorbed with
the news of the revolution at Vienna, and the
pride and delight with which the overthrow of Prince
Metternich has been hailed may be conceived, when it
is remembered that, as one of the principal authors
of the treaties of Vienna, every Frenchman looks
upon him as the greatest enemy of his country.
The effect of the Austrian revolution on affairs here
is considered rather favourable than otherwise.
The Emperor has now too much to do at home to
think of a crusade against French liberalism, and
the movement at Vienna may, therefore, be con-
sidered a guarantee that no attempt will be made
by the Northern Powers to interfere in France.
Some of the papers, in the enthusiasm of the mo-
ment, speak of the revolution of Vienna as having
at once had the effect of setting Lombardy at liberty,
and they speak of the Lombardo-Venetian Republic
as if it were a matter already established. It is not
likely, however, that the more moderate members of
the Government will readily allow themselves to be
carried away by such ideas. They are too well aware
of the dangers of Propagandism to allow themselves
to be lightly drawn into such a course.

The Tuscan Minister waited on M. DII LAMAR..
TINE on Monday, to express on the part of the Grand
Duke of TUSCANY his satisfaction at the pacific dis-
position of the Republic, and his desire to continue
the friendly relations which have hitherto subsisted
between the two countries.

A deputation of Savoyards resident in Paris also
presented their congratulations to the Provisional
Government. The SARDINIAN ATARASSADOR had
been invited to put himself at their head, but had
refused.

There was an emeute at Lille on Saturday, in con-
sequence of a strike for wages amongst the workmen.
Tranquillity was soon restored by the National,
Guard. Seventeen workmen were arrested, five of
whom are Belgians.

The Moniteur of Monday publishes a document
which brings to light a flagrant cue of scandal
against M. GUIZOT, and which proves that that Minis-
ter, undeterred by previous exposures, pursued his
corrupt and dishonest system of government up to
the last moment of his political existence. The docu-
ment was found among the papers of M. GENIE (the
negotiator of the Petit affair), the private secretary of
M. GUIZOT, and is a report from M. Boucur, the
Procureur du Roi to the Minister of Justice, with re-
spect to some charges brought against M. LIERI, a
well known member of the Institute, and a profes-
sor of the University, for stealing books from the
public libraries. M. LIMIT was in the confi-
dence of M. GuizoT and M. DUCHATEL. He
was frequently employed by these two Minis-
ters to make researches in the public libra-
ries, and he had consequently access to all the
most valuable collections in France, and he took
the opportunity thus afforded him of abstracting
valuable works from the libraries in Paris, Carpen-
tras, Montpellier, the Chartreuse at Grenoble, and
other places, to the amount, it is calculated, of be-
tween three and four hundred thousand francs. The
report is dated as late as the 4th of February last.
Several of the works have been sold by public auction
in Paris, and some of them have found their way to
the British Museum. A manuscript Psalter, belong-
ing to the Chartreuse at Grenoble, was part of the
stolen goods, and was purchased by an eminent col•
lector in London for 2801. What makes the affair
still more curious is, that M. LIBRI was the intimate
friend, visitor, and confidant of M. GUIZOT up to the
very , last • although M. GUIZOT must have been
fully aware of the suspicions against him, for the
Government was in possession of information on this
subject more than two years ago. M. LIBRI wrote
the articles in the Journal des Debals in d( fence of
the Italian policy of M. GuizoT, and was also the
author of the articles which appeared in the Revue
des Deux Mondes, in defence of the GUIZOT Adminis-
tration. M. Lunt, who received a hint of the dis-
covery of this document, has fled from France.
General CAVAIGNAC, the new Governor-General
of Algeria, has addressed the following proclamation
to the army of Africa :
" Soldiers,—The Republic has been proclaimed
amidst the acclamations of the country. A solemn
assembly of the nation will not delay to sanction the first
act of its will.
" Soldiers, your duty is not difficult; your arms be.
long to the country, and you will be happy to shed
your blood for her.
" The Provisional Government of the Republic has
placed me at your head. Soldiers, I am not deceived in
you. If the nation had stood in need of a man de-
noted to it, it might have taken one at chance from
among you. The Government wished for more ; it

vrithed to reepernt to the idot at the whnlti animity, In
fixing on me it wi3lied to do honour, in the name of the
nation, to the memory of a virtuous citizen, to a martyr
for liberty.
"The nation wishes you to be commanded with firm-
ness and with justice. To those to whom it confides
the power over you, it orders not to forget that you are
her children. It wishes that your chiefs should merit
your confidence, and it forbids them to obtain it by
weakness or forgetfulness of their duties. You will find
me such as many of you know me to be, for I am not
just come among you. As to you, your duty lies in one
word, obedience.' Obedience, not to the will of a man,
but to military law, such as it has been established.
" Soldiers—Your attitude, your lore of duty, and of
discipline, will assure the friends of the Republic, and
inspire alarm in the minds of its enemies.
(Signed) "E. CAVAIGNAC, Governor-General."

The Reforme has the following on the late events
at Vienna, and on the expulsion of Prince MET-
TERNICH and the principal courtiers :
" The students of the Ecole des Beaux Arts fought
like heroes. Metternich quitted Vienna amidst univer-
sal execrations. Amongst those driven from the capital
were the Empress Mother and the Princess de Metter-
nich, who had evinced great irritation at the events in
Paris. The above-named personages were continually
ordering masses to be said to preserve Austria from the
revolutionary poison. The Redemptionists and the
Jesuits, who are specially protected by these ladies, will
be also sent away. M. Pilat, who held the same situation
with M. Metternich as M. Genie did with M. Guizot,has
been also obliged to leave, and give up the editor-
ship of the Austrian Obset ter. All the paid personnel
are included i❑ the general route. M. de Jarke, one
of the writers sent from Berlin to propagate the doctrine
of the system of hi4toriques, left in great haste. After
Metternich, the person who has most excited the curses
of the people by his oppressions, has been the Arch
duke Louis. This Prince was, moreover, the right hand
of the deceased Francis 1., his brother, and defended the
system of Metternich to the last extremity. lie keeps
himself concealed in dread of popular resentment. No
one is ignorant at Vienna that it is to the Archduke
Louis, Metternich, Fiquelmont, and Prince Munch de
Bellinghausen, that are to be attributed the massacres at
Tarnow, and those more recently in Milan. The Aus-
trian people have ceased to be responsible for them, as
they have so worthily fought against and expelled those
who had brought such a stain on its name. As to the
famous Congress of Sovereigns, great and small, who
were to have assembled at Dresden, it will not take place;
the members of that Congress fly in all directions, and
everywhere find revolution and propagandism."
The Democratic Pacifique makes the following re-
marks :

" Formerly in Europe a revolution was the signal for
war ; to-day each new revolution is a pledge for the
peace of the world.
" There is no chance of war. The last bulwark of
absolutism has been destroyed ! At Vienna, in Austria,
a sudden and irresistible insurrection has overthrown
Metternich, reduced the princes of the Imperial Family
to the station of private gentlemen, has with one blow
accomplished the emancipation of Lombardy, of Hun-
gary, of Tyrol, of Croatia, of Galicia, and of the
hereditary states of Austria themselves.
" According to the latest accounts the Austrian Re-
public had not yet been proclaimed. The powerless
Emperor was left alone in his palace either from indif-
ference or contempt ; but after a change of Ministry
effected by armed force, no Monarch can long retain his
crown. Ask the banished Louis Philippe how many
hours elapsed between the ridiculous and tardy conces-
sions of a Mole Ministry and the fall of the dynasty !
" Blood has flowed in the streets of Vienna ; the
troops fraternised with the people; citizens and armed
students guard the city. The capital of Austria, accord.
ing to the Prussian journals, is in the same state as Paris
was on the 23d of February. Vienna will soon have
its 24th.

" Eternal peace, association, labour, harmony, are now
the signification of those feared terms, revolution and re-

"The day of war is past. Let battalions be formed,
but let them be battalions of workmen ; let us unfold
the banners of peace, let us advance to the attack of un-
cultivated deserts, of waste lands, and pestilential
marshes; let us exterminate ignorance, let us annihilate
poverty."
M. Emu.' DE GIRLEDIN has proposed in the
columns of the Presse, the adoption of the following
plan to meet the existing financial crisis :
" The suppression of the sinking fund, which compli-
cates the budget of the state, and takes away from the
taxes twenty. five millions per annum; the closing of the
offices of the sinking fund, which will be a saving; the
rigorous application of Articles 421 and 422 of
the penal code, which interdicts and punishes
wagers for the rise and fall of the public funds.
The conversion of the agens de change into •gent
du trisor, to be paid by the State, having a fixed salary,
and giving their assistance gratuitously in the purchase,
the sale, or the transfer of public effects. The delivery
of inscriptions of one franc of rente. The emission of
billets a rente to replace Bons Royaur. The conversion
at will either into inscriptions of Three per Cent. Bente,
at fifty francs, or into billets a rente of the Bons Royaur
in circulation, of the Canton money deposited with the
Uovernment, and of all the funds, which, whatever
their title may be, constitute the floating debt. Lastly,
the re-purchase by the State, payable at will, either in
inscription of Three per Cent. ltentes, or in billets de
rente of all the great lines of railway already conceded;
of all canals, mines, beet-root sugar manufactories, and
salt works."

The Siecle publishes the following on the ap-
proaching elections. It may be considered as the
programme of M. ODILON BARROT and the rump of
the old Gauche Dynasticue—
" We have received many communications and propo-
sitions as to the formation of an electoral committee.
After having attentively examined them, without flinch.
ing from the duties that a new state of things imposes,
but on the contrary the better to fulfil them, we have
put aside these different proposals. The motives which
have decided us may be summed up in this—the old
party of the Opposition is no more. Some men remain
with their previous character, their renown, their services
but the party is no more. We should think it puerile to
endeavour to revive it, and we do not mean to form an-
other out of its elements, which, in a time in which the
support of every good citizen is so necessary to Govern.
meat, might appear, whatever miglst be its inten-
tion, en opposition party. By the constant firm
ness of our opinions and our conduct under the fallen
Government we have acquired the right to
speak the truth to the present one. We protest in
favour of the liberty of discussion. But this liberty, so
precious to us, which we have so long laboured to ob-
tain, and which we will preserve inviolate for the com-
mon interest, for the honour and safety of the republic,
we will use in a spirit of concord, union, and benevo-
lence. We would support and strengthen the power to
which France has trusted its destinies, not fetter or
weaken it ; we would aid the mass of the people, so
long and so unjustly disinherited, to take regular pos-
session of political life, and not contest its victory or
lessen its results; we would efface all distinctions of
parties and classes, enlist those new men who have
faith, ardour, and hope, taking care not to exclude
those who have distinguished themselves by their
information and devotion. Let the practical expe.
rience of the agriculturist, the hidden genius of the
operative, the modest merit of the well-disposed man
find a place beside those whose superiority, hi-
therto more conspicuous, is exhibited in the arts,
in literature, in the magistracy, and the army. This
should, this must be. In the bosom of this national
assembly, where a fraternal union should exist, and
which will, we hope, agree in proclaiming the wants of
our times, and will have the most difficult problems to
solve, the question is not to obtain the ascendant for
this or that shade of republican opinion, to obtain a
greater or less majority of the inhabitants of the town
or the country of such or such citizens ; it is to consti-
tute a majority strong, enlightened, honest, and firm,
resolved to maintain the Republic, to defend it against
all aggressions, to finish and consolidate the work of
regeneration which they undertake, and also to preserve
it from all excess, and from all stain, and cause France
to be loved for her worth and respected for her virtues
by all Europe. To this end shall all our efforts be
directed. We desire to see the idea of concord, of pro-
gress, of order, and true liberty realised. We much
prefer such a course to working fruitlessly, after all
the experience we have had, to ensure the triumph of a
party."

EAST INDIA HOUSE-(THIS DAY.)
A Quarterly General Court of the Proprietors of East
India stock was held this day at their house in Leaden-
hall-street. The chair was taken at twelve o'clock by Henri
St. George Tucker, Esq., Chairman of the Director..
The minutes of the last Court having been read, and the
usual routine business of the Quarterly Court having
been gone through,
Mr. POYNDER brought forward a motion of which b.
had given notice, to the effect that the local government
of Bengal exceeded their commission in continuing tho
contribution of thirty-five thousand rupees annually to
support the temple of Juggernaut, and that the time well
wily arrived when it became the imperative duty of the
Court, to Christianity and to the country, to interpose
and to declare that all such support of heathenism shill
have immediate end. The Honourable Proprietor en-
forced the propositions of this resolution at considerable
length.

Sir. SULLIVAN seconded the motion.
Mr. LEWIS opposed the motion, on the ground that
the payment was one to which, however objectionable
in other respects, the Government of Bengal was bound
by the pledge which was given when they took posses-
sion of the territory, with the lands and revenues of the
temple.
The CHAIRMAN, in answer to an Honourable Pro-
prietor, gave explanations of the manner in which the
alleged obligation was contracted, in accordance with the
argument of Mr. Lewis.
After a prolonged discussion, Mr. PoYNDER replied
and as he refused to abide by a show of hand., the
Court divided, when the resolution was negatived by •
majority of seventy to four.
THE LATE RAJA OP SATTIRA..
Mr. Lewis then rose, according to notice, to bring
forward a resolution to the effect that the Court should
recommend that the title, territory, and property, to
which the Baja was entitled under the treaty of the 25th
of September, 1819, should be restored to, his adopted
son.

After a brief discussion the motion was withdraw',
but the subject was not finally dropped when we went
to press;: and as Mr. G. Thompson has a notice on th•
paper relating to the occupation of Slade, the Court will
sit to a lute hour.

POST-OFFICE.—The following notice was posted at
the General Post office this morning:—" On and after
