LOMBARD Y.

The Emperor of Austria has issued the following
Manifesto :

" In the hope of seeing peace speedily re-established
in all the provinces of the Lombardo-Venetian king-
dom, and animated by the desire to extend to their
population the liberal institutions which all the other
provinces of the Austrian empire enjoy, we consider
it incumbent on us to make known our intention in
that respect.
" We have already granted to all the inhabitants
of the Lombardo-Venetian kingdom, without distinc-
tion, full pardon for the part they might have
acted in the political events of the present year, order-
ing that they should not be liable to prosecution or
punishment for their past conduct, with the exception
only of the public functionaries who continued subse-
quently to retain office.
" It is also our sovereign will that the inhabitants
of the Lombardo-Venetian kingdom shall possess a
constitution conformable to their respective nationali-
ties and the wants of their country respectively, and
destined to cement their union with the Austrian
empire.
. .

To that effect, the moment when peace and tran-
quillity shall be completely restored, we will convoke,
in a town hereafter to be fixed, an assembly of repre-
sentatives of the nation, freely elected by all the pro-
vinces of the Lombardo-Venetian kingdom.

" Given at our Palace of Vienna on the 28th
September, 1848. (Signed) " FERDINAN D."

PYRMONT.

Republicanism has invaded the little German prin-
cipality of Pyrmont. Having refused to fulfil pro-
mises made in the month of March last, in the name
of her son, a minor, the Princess de Wuldeck has
been driven fcom the territory, and compelled to fly
for refuge to her father-in-law, the Prince de Bucke-
burg.

HUNGARY.

The Cologne Gazette publishes a letter from Pesth,
of the 28th September, which says Everybody is
labouring at the fortifications amidst the noise of the
cannonade, which is beard from the outside. The
works are carried on night and day, and the most
elegant ladies drive wheelbarrows. On the the 26th
the Croats entered Wessemburg, whilst the Hunga-
rian army retired to Velenge, to give battle there ;
and we have heard the noise of canton all night in
that direction. Kossuth returned to Peath last
evening. The manifesto of the Emperor has not been
received, because it was not countersigned by any
minister. Kossuth is at the head of a provisional re-
volutionary Government of six members."—The Beer-
senhalle says :—" The murderer of Count Lemberg,
who is, according to some, a mechanic of Vienna, and
according to other, a Hungarian, committed the crime
with a dagger, and afterwards mutilated the body.
According to a rumour at Vienna, on the 29th ult.,
which was not, however, believed, Jellachich was at
I not more than three leagues from Ofen."

SWITZERLAND.

The following is the essential part of the note
which M. Raveaux, envoy of the Central German
Government, is charged to remit to the Helvetic
Directory with respect to the attempts made in the
Grand Duchy of Baden by the republican bands
which had found a refuge in the Swiss territory
" The recent invasion organized by Struve, at the
head of an armed and disciplined band, immediately
after the assistance which Hecker previously re-
ceived from Switzerland, imposes on the Government
of the Vicar of the Empire the duty of taking all
measures of precaution which the honour and se-
curity of Germany require. In consequence the Mi-
nistry of the Empire demands for this manifest viola-
tion of all international obligations open and com-
plete reparation, and it desires that it may be given
with the least possible delay. For this purpose the
Ministry demands that the Governments of the
cantons in which the organization took place, and
from which the invasion of the corps francs was
made, shall immediately proceed to a scrupulous in-
vestigation, and to the severe chastisement of guilty
fun ction arits and authorities ; that in case the consti-
tution in vigour in those cantons should not permit
the expulsion of these refugees, they shall be placed
under the surveillance of the police, and that the
Directory shall categorically explain itself with re-
spect to the guarantees it is able to offer to prevent
the repetition of such acts as those set forth above.
In case this demand shall not be promptly satisfied,
the Government of the Vicar of the Empire will
adopt all measures and all means, the employment of
which may be justified by the above-mentioned viola-
tions of international obligations, and which the
honour of Germany exact."
According to the Ticino Gazette of the 30th ult.
the relations between that canton and Lombardy
had been resumed. Count Zampieri, of Imola, bad
arrived at Lugano with dispatches from Rome, in-
viting General Zucchi to accept the War Depart..
ment. It was said that, after a conference with the
Count, he had accepted the office.

BRAZILS.

PALMOUTH, FRIDAY MORNING.—Her Majesty's packet
Seagull arrived here last night, from Rio Janeiro, whence
she sailed on August 5 ; trom Bahia, August 17 ; and
from Pernambuco, August 24.
Passengers from Rio—Mr. Stephen Busk. From
Bahia—Mrs. Berry, four children, and servant. She
had on freight about 110,0001. The next packet follow
ing had not arrived at Rio when the Seagull left. She
met with the Lioness, from Oporto, of and for St. John's,
New Brunswick, September 25, lat. 41.48 N., lon. 33.9
W.; and the, Ville de Bordeaux, from Arica, of and tor
Bordeaux, ninety-eight days out, September 14, lat. 32
N., lon. 37.40 W.

Her Majesty's ship Comus sailed from Rio Janeiro
August 4, for England; the Griffon sailed July 25, with
the mails for the River Plate; and the Alecto, steam-
sloop, came up on the 29th, to relieve the Comus. The
Kestrel brought the mails from the River for England
on the 27th.

In the Brazils all is reported quiet. The rate of ex-
change has fallen to 221 d., in consequence of the unset-
tled state of Europe. Coffee was being exported princi-
pally tor the United States.
At Bahia and Pernambuco business was very dull; a
large number of ships had resorted to the Brazilian ports,
induced by the late momentary high ruling freights, but
which were at last dates as equally depressed. The
markets for British goods are represented as being much
overstocked; but probably a greater elasticity will be the
impulse on returning confidence.
At Rio remained twenty•seven British merchant
♦essels, of which the Speed, from Peru fur London, and
the Tone, from Cardiff for Valparaiso, alone were tran-
sient ships.
At Bahia remained twenty-five, of which only the
Symmetry, for New South Wales, had not put in for
cargo.
At Pernambuco nine vessels were in port, loading or
unloading.
The latest date from the River Plate is to the 20th of
July. Rosas was endeavouring to make terms with
Monte Video, by enticing the inhabitants to renounce
the aid of the British and French powers. It apre ars
that he demands 5,000,000 dollars as an indemnification
from the British Government, and the withdrawal of the
men-of-war, with the exclusive right of the trade of
the Parana.
The Price Current, dated Rio, August 3, observes ;
Subsequent to the date of our last circular the exchange
opened at 23d., when it gradually declined to 21id ; it
recovered again, and business has been done at 22d. to
221 d. The amount negotiated since last packet is esti-
mated at 100,000/.
Coffee transactions have been regular, at gradually
improved prices, notwithstanding the last accounts from
Europe and the United States being rather unfavourable.
The rise in a great measure may be attributed to the
decline in exchange, as also to a reduced stock, quoted
at 3,000 to 3,500 per arroba. Shipments for the month,
26.161 bags.
Sugar sales amount to about 250 cases, 150 being for
exportation, at 2,000 to 2,200.

in Silesia for making a speech at a meeting, in which
he advocated regicide and justified the murders of

HUNGARY.

The Hungarian Diet on the 23d declared all the
ordinances of the EMPEROR null and void ; and on
the 28th they unanimously passed a resolution to the
effect that, in the absence of a Government, it elected,
as a provisional one, the committee of six who were
appointed a fortnight before to aid BATIITANI in war
matters—such committee to have unlimited and full
powers. Up to midnight all the National Guards
were under arms, and great excitement prevailed.
The statement of the murder of Count LAMBERG
is confirmed. It appears that when it become known
that he had been appointed by the EMPEROR to super-
sede the Archduke STEPHEN, the people in large
numbers assembled around the house in which he had
intended to take up his residence. Finding tha(
the crowd was ripe for mischief, he contrived to
leave the premises, and crossed over the bridge
to Buda, •;vhere he sought refuge in the
house of the Commander-in-Chief. The building,
however, was speedily attacked, and the Count, in
disguise, attempted to regain Pesth in a carriage, in
order to deliver his credentials to the Hungarian Diet.
Whilst crossing the bridge he was recognised, his
name was pronounced aloud, and he was instantly
cut down by a number of men armed with spades
and scythes. He was then literally hacked and
hewed to pieces.

ST. PETEESEURGII, SEPT. 4.—TIIE CHOLERA..-411
Moscow the number of cholera patients has so greatly
diminished, that, on the 17th, the last cholera hospital
was closed. In St. Petersburgh, on the 21st, 11
persons were seized, 11 recovered, 6 died, and 138

The Zeitungshalle of Berlin publishes the follow-
ing, dated the Ist, from Potsdam :—" To-day the
body guards attacked some citizens without means of
defence who desired to be present at a popular meet-
ing. A stranger who had left the town to see the
assembly received five wounds in the head. The body
guards surrounded the tribune. This evening the
aristocracy is delighted; congratulations are given to
the body guards. It is hoped that civil war will at
length break out. The Commandant of the National
Guard having demanded of the staff if it could re-
strain the soldiery, received a satisfactory reply, and
the Commandant threatens to put the town in a state
of siege."

AUSTRIA.

In the National Assembly at Vienna, on the 30th
ult., a Deputy, M. Borosch, questioned the Minister
of War with respect to the letters of Baron Jella-
chich. The Minister replied that several times Jella-
chich had demanded arms and objects of equipment,
and that he had always been answered, in a purely
private manner, that so long as the Government of
Hungary should be in the path of legality, there
could be no idea of such assistance, but that 280,000
florins had been sent to him to pay the Croatian
troops, in consequence of the Hungarian Ministry
having refused to pay them. The Sclavonians ap-
plauded this statement with enthusiasm, but the op-
position was not satisfied.

SAXONY.

A letter from Leipsic states that the annual fair
held at that place, which was going on on the 30th of
September, was tolerably active. Considerable pur-
chases had been made in cloths and leather, though
little was done in silks. The 'principal buyers were
Americans, Swedes, Bavarians, and residents in the
Hans Towns.

WALLACHIA.

A letter from Bucharest, of the
.18th ult., says :

" It is known that the Porte Las half yielded to the
pretensions of Russia; it has disavowed Suleyman-
Paella, without however recalling him to Constan-

tinople. This news has thrown the principality
of Wallachia into some agitation. The population
of Bucharest, in the presence of twenty thousand
peasants, sent from the villages, celebrated the
fae of the revolution with the greatest en-
thusiasm, and on this occasion all the persons
present again swore fidelity to the Constitution of
June 23. The inhabitants of the country districts
are continually demanding arms to come and rein-
force the capital, and defend the sacred rights of their
country. Fuad-Effendi has just arrived at Giurgevo,
and upwards of 4,000 persons went out to meet him,
to explain the complaints of the country against the
Russian protectorate. It is said that the Porte has
already sent to Jassy the firman for Prince Stourdza's
dismissal."

ITALY.

The Italian papers of this morning contain no
news of importance. In Piedmont the preparations
for war are proceeding slowly but surely ; nothing
has as yet transpired respecting the negotia-
tions. At Rome, M. Rossi's accession to power
has produced anything but a favourable impression
upon the public, as may be seen from the leaders
of the Roman journals, where his conduct in
France under Louis PHILIPPE is severly criticised.
At Florence, the Committee named to make a report
upon the forced loan of four millions, has pronounced
itself in favour of the measure. Leghorn is still
under radical sway. We have no further intelli-
gence from Sicily, but it appears that the re-
commencement of hostilities was expected shortly.
In the Venice Gazette of the 21st ult. we find a
highly interesting leader, containing a faithful pic-
ture of all that Venice has done and suffered to main-
tain her independence in the present critical po-
sition of Italy. After enumerating the several sacri-
fices made by the Venetians, the forced loan of four
millionp, realised without the slightest difficulty,
by voluntary devoti ma to the c,uiitry, the other
oin of one and a half millions imposed upon the
poorer class; more than a million's worth of silver
brought to the mint, another million of voluntary
offerings, the two millions of bank-shares, besides
private beneficence to exiles and those in misery,
in spite of the blockade by land, which prevents the
richest families from getting in their revenues, and
the absolute stagnation of commerce ; and after com-
paring these resources to the immense e- penses of the

DUBLIN', FRIDAY MORXING.— At length the

Are most anxious speculations as to the result. You

have, however, seen private letters written last
sigh~, one of which anticipates a verdict of guilty,
whilst *nether states that an acquittal of Mr. Smith
O'Brien is possible—that a disagreement in the jury
is highly probable. A third letter says, " You may
rely upon it there will be no verdict." Any opinion
on the subject must, however, be purely speculative.

Clonmel correspondent of the Cork Conetitu-
Sion, writing on Wednesday, after the close of the
east for the Crown, gives the following very curious
atatem t :

" The Crown has closed its evidence against William
Smith O'Brien, although one-fourth of the witnesses
subpoenaed have not been examined, many of them
being persona to whose appearance the public looked
ft)rward with anxiety. Egan, a man in gaol under charge
by indictment of high treason, was originally one of the
most material witnesses for the prosecution. He swore
en information which was pregnant with facts, but when
required to go before the grand jury declared his inabi-
lity to give any evidence, having completely forgotten
all he hilt previodsly proposed. No exertion would re-
fresh his gaemory—it was a complete blank; and the
Vac rfey-General, finding he could not avail himself
if his tesetmony, put him into an indictment, and he
slow kes in the county gaol for prosecution for high
trossson.
" The Widow Cormack, when sent before the grand
fury, announced that she would tell them nothing, and
completely put them at defiance. Her demeanour was
evidently advised

"Yesterday the galleaies of the court were three
parts filled with ladies, while it was the first day
iisinee the opening of the Commission that the Countess
of Donoughmore vacated her seat on the bench.
" Sinith O'Brien appears very much the worse of
anxiety. Yesterday his altered appearance was re-
Worked by every one in court. He was extremely
nervous, and throughout the day wrote in a confused
manner questions to his counsel to put to theseveral wit-
"lessee. At the time it was sworn he ordered the police
to be slaughtered he was greatly excited. There is
reason to believe that he was not, the person who uttered
the expression, but that it was a follower, who, through-
, ut the affray, sought to wrest the command from him.
It is said that during the night Smith O'Brien stopped
at Glacken's, at the Commons of Boulagh, previous to
the affray at Widow Cormack's, he paced the room in
tears, not knowing how to relieve himself from the des-
perate position into which he had plunged."

Half these quantities should be given to young
persons under fifteen, and still smaller doses to in-
fants.

It is recommended to repeat these remedies night
and morning, for some days after the looseness of
the bowels has been stopped. But in all cases it is
desirable, whenever practicable, that even in this
earliest stage of the disorder recourse should be had
to medical advice on the spot.
Next in importance to the immediate employment
of such remedies is attention to proper diet and cloth-
ing. Whenever Asiatic cholera is epidemic there is
invariably found among great numbers of the inha-
bitants an extraordinary tendency to irritation of the
bowels; and this fact suggests that every article of

FRAINCE.

Yesterday the Committee of Foreign Affairs as-
sembled to renew its bureau. M. Drouyn de Lhuys
was re-elected President; M. Aylies was chosen
Vice-President, in the room of 111. de Mornay; M.
Edmond Lafayette and M. de Heckeren were nomi-
nated secretaries. M. Mole caused himself to be
inscribed a member of the Committee.
The Club of the Institute has declared in favotir of
the nomination of the President of the Republic by
universal suffrage. The majority was as great as the
three-fourths. The questions which that body has
still to discuss are of inferior importance. It remains
to decide, first, if the National Assembly will have a
right to choose a President amongst the first five
candidates, in the case that none of them should have
obtained an absolute majority, and, in the second
place, at what period it will be advisable to have the
President nominated. Is it to be after the vote of the
Constitution, or after the vote of the organic laws ?
The Club will have to decide on these questions in:one
of its earliest sittings.
The Droit says :—" The commission which vas
formed to re-examine the cases of insurgents con-
demned to transportation, has concluded its labours.
It has decided that about a third of all the con-
demned shall be set at liberty, their cases being such
as to warrant indulgence. Several of the persons
orderedfor transportation have already been released."

SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN.

COPENHAGEN, OCT. I.—Great impatience prevails
here that negotiations only are being carried on
here respecting the infringement of the armistice by
Prussia. The KING has received numerous addresses
from various parts of Schleswig, expressing great
sat;sfaction at the appointment of Count MOLTKE
as President. "Though by no means desirous of being
separated from the Danish monarchy," says one of the
addresses, " Schleswig nevertheless wishes to remain
Schleswig."

By a royal ordinance of the 23d, an extraordinary
conscription is to be made of all young men who
were born in 1823, 24, and 25. No exception what-
ever is to be made, either in regard to birth, rank, or
office, or any other cause whatever. A foreigner who
has resided ten years in the country is likewise in-
cluded in the military conscription.
The Provisional Government of Rendsburg, which
as we have stated is on the point of moving its seat
from Rendsburg to Schleswig, have sent a writing to
General VON VONIN, who has been appointed Com-

SUDDEN DEATH.—An inquest was held before Mr.
Best, at Draycot, on Thursday, on the body of Miss
Louisa Mary Sollis, aged 24, daughter of the Rev.
William Sollis, perpetual curate of Fenton, Staffordshire.
It appeared that Miss Sollis had for some time been in a
delicate state of health, and was on a visit to her uncle,
Mr. Wheatcroft, of the former place, for a change of air.
On Monday week deceased and several ft iends walked
over to Ditchtord, a distance of about three miles, to
spend the afternoon with a friend; about seven o'clock
the same evening, on their return home, deceased, who
had the arm of Miss Wheatcroft, slipped down on one
knee, and on recovering herself said she did not feel the
least inconvenience from the fall. The party walked on
for about ten minutes, when deceased complained of ex-
treme faintness and violent pain. A conveyance was
procured, and she was carried home, where Mr. Bull
surgeon, of Blockley, and Mr. Hiron, of Campden, at-
tended her; she, however, died on Wednesday morning.
The case being a very obscure one, an inquiry was con-
sidered necessary, and upon a post morte:n examination
being made by the above-named medical men, two
orifices in the stomach, produced by ulceration, which
evidently had existed for some time, were discovered;
the outer coat of the stomach was also ruptured, which
was the immediate cause of death, and without doubt
was produced by the fall she had on the Monday pre..
vious. Verdict, " Died by the visitation of God."_
Worcester Journal.

RARE BIRD.—On Saturday last, as the Hon. Cap-
tain Harris, M.P., and Mr. Swinburne Berkeley, the
son of the Hon. Member for West Gloucestershire, were
shooting in the vicinity of Heron Court, the seat of the
Earl of Malmesbury, they fired together at a snipe,
which, on being brought to bag, proved to be the" great
snipe " of Be wick, a most rare and beautiful specimen.
This bird is about to be added to the collection at Bea-
con Lodge.
A SET Or GRlNDERS.—Oxford•street has been
blockaded now for upwards of a month. Our Paving
Commissioners evidently think that the London
thoroughfares should be treated like teeth—when a
little decayed, they ought to be carefully stopped.

AUSTRIA.

The intercepted letters of JELLACIUCH clearly prove
that he has been acting entirely under the guidance
of the Camarilla of Vienna, that he has been in
constant communication with the Archduke FRANCIS
CHARLES, the Archduchess SOPHIA, and the Arch-
duke Jolts, and that the Croatians under his com-
mand are merely a body of mercenaries in the pay of
the Royal Family of Austria, and employed by them
for the restoration of Absolutism throughout the
whole of the Austrian dominions by force. This
matter was alluded to in the discussiou on the
Budget in the Austrian Diet, which took place
on the 29th ult. It appears from the statement of the
Minister of Finance, that the actual deficit exceeds
sixty millions of florins (182,000,300 f.), and for next
year a fresh deficit of sixty- one millions of florins is
reported. The budget was very warmly attacked by
E. SlEvxowsßl, the Deputy for Galicia, that it would
be absurd for the Diet to vote the budget of receipts
until it was in possession of that of the expenses.
He also demanded with what money JELLACHICH
paid his army, by whom he was supplied with artil-
lery, whether it was from the resources of Croatia
which were legally collected by the Hungarian
Ministry ? If those expenses were paid from the
Central Austrian Treasury, the Diet should narrowly
examine into the affair before it voted the collection
of the taxes.

Letters from Vienna the 30th ult. announce that
the budget of the empire will only be fixed for six
months, from the Ist of November. The Minister
of Foreign Affairs has declared that he will accept
the reduction of 700,000 florins, of which 300,000
florins is for the salaries of embassies, and the remain-
der in the secret service money. The posts of Minis-
ters Plenipotentiary are to be maintained, especially
all those at the Cl.rm.. Court, Tn the event of the
Diet making any objection, the Ministry proposes to
make a Cabinet question of the affair.
The Austrian Minister of War has forwarded a
circular to all the officers of the army, warning them
against indulging in any expressions hostile to the
constitutional institutions granted by his Imperial
MAJESTY to his people.
VIENNA, SEPT. 30.—We have received intelligence
to-day that the Hungarians have gained a decided
victory over JELLAcnicir.

Report says that the Minister of the Interior, Baron
DOBLHOFF, has tendered his resignation.
The sitting of the Assembly to-day was very short.
The Constitution Committee presented its sketch of
the fundamental law of the Austrian people. The
essential points are—
Abolition of nobility and noble prerogatives.
Abolition of the penalty of death.
Unconditional right of petition.
Popular assemblies, except in cases of apprehended
danger.
Separation of Church and State, &c.
London, England, 1848-10-07

HUNGARY.

The Hungarian Diet on the 23d declared all the
ordinances of the EMPEROR null and void ; and on
the 28th they unanimously passed a resolution to the
effect that, in the absence of a Government, it elected,
as a provisional one, the committee of six who were
appointed a fortnight before to aid BATMAN' in war
matters—such committee to have unlimited and full
powers. Up to midnight all the National Guards
were under arms, and great excitement prevailed.

The statement of the murder of Count LAMBERG
is confirmed. It appears that when it become known
that he had been appointed by the EMPEITOR to super-
sede the Archduke STEPHEN, the people in large
numbers assembled around the house in which he had
intended to take up his residence. Finding that
the crowd was ripe for mischief, he contrived to
leave the premises, and crossed over the bridge
to Buda, where he sought refuge in the
house of the Commander-in-Chief. The building,
however, was speedily attacked, and the Count, in
disguise, attempted to regain Pesth in a carriage, in
order to deliver his credentials to the Hungarian Diet.
Whilst crossing the bridge he was recognised, his
name was pronounced aloud, and he was instantly
cut down by a number of men armed with spades
and scythes. He was then literally hacked and
hewed to pieces.

GREAT SOUTHERN AND WESTERN RAILWAY.--John •
Darcy was found guilty of having, on the night of the
13th day of November, at Ballybrophy, in the Queen's
county, murdered one Michael Smith, by striking him
with a stick or stone on the left side of the head. Chief
Justice Doherty sentenced him to be executed on the
23d instant. The prisoner received his sentence in
a kneeling posture, and did not demean himself in that
reckless manner which marked his cenduct on the pre-
vious evening. lie had to be supported by two turn-
keys on his removal.
Bridget Nolan, for the murder of her infant child,
Margaret Nolan, at Carlow Graigue, was sentenced to
be hung on Thursday, 20th April. While passing sen-
tenoe, the prisoner flung herself on her knees, and said,
" Give me a reprieve, my Lord." On his Lordship as-
suming the sable emblem of death, the prisoner fainted,
and she had to be sustained in the dock by the matron.
COONTY OF Ti RONE.— OMAGH, WEDNESDAY.—This
day the case of John and Jane Buchanan, for writing a
threatening letter to William Todd, Esq., came on for
trial before Mr. Baron Pennefather. The indictment
charged the prisoners with being concerned in writing
a threatening letter on the 19th of December last, to
William Todd, E,q., a resident of Dublin, who some
time since purchased a portion of the Blessington estate
near Orealh. There was a second count charging the
said Jane Buchanan with sending the same. After the
examination of witnesses, Mr. Baron Pennefather ruled
that there was not sufficient evidence to connect the pri-
soners with the writing of the letter for which they were
indicted. Verdict—" Not guilty."

THE LATE RIOTS.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Srn,—Perhaps your readers may be interested in the
progress of the riots which have disgraced the cities of
Edinburgh and Glasgow for the last few days, and some
of those who take a deep interest in the welfare of the
intelligent portion of the working classes, will be de-
lighted to hear that the rioters had and have no political
object in view. A number of the newspapers both here
and in Glasgow designated those abominable outbreak-
ings, Chartist riots, but I can safely assure you, that al-
though it is quite true that thieves and blackguards, and
wild apprentice boys, have taken advantage of the pre-
sent excitement, and of the meetings of the Chartists, to
create a disturbance yet not a single Chartist, as such,
has lifted a hand to disturb the peace of either city. On
the contrary, numbers of them have been, at their own
request, enrolled as special constables. My place
.9t
business is in one of the principal thoroughfares
in
Edinburgh, and I have had (although I am no Chartist)
many opportunities of conversing with those men, and
I find them intelligent, sober, and industrious, although
they often use strong language in denouncing what they
call "class legislation."
The city of Edinburgh is now perfectly quiet, and no
further disturbances are anticipated. A number of
thieves, Irish labourers, painters' boys, drunken clerks,
&c., &c., have been taken up, and many of them sent off
to Bridewell for sixty days.
I remain, Sir, yours respectfully,
A CITIZEN OF EDINBURGH.
Edinburgh, March 9, 1848.
P.S.—I have no doubt but the London riots, of which
you arc ashamed, will turn out like ours.
London, England, 1848-03-13

terally aid in carrying out the regulations of the
police. Orders have likewise been sent to have the
whole of the broken granite that has been
laid down to repair the road in the immediate
vicinity of liennington•common removed. An extra
number of swords and fire-arms have been sent
off to the rural districts, so that the police may be well
prepared to act in case any attempt at riot is made in
these places. The military are ordered to be all under
arms; the different public offices, as well as the Bank of
England and Buckingham Palace, have an extra guard
to remain on duty the whole of the night. The
Metropolitan and City police are to be placed
in companies in such quarters as to prevent
any processions from passing through the pub
lie thoroughfares. The gunsmiths in London have
been requested, and have agreed, to uncrew the barrels
of all fire• arms in their possession, so that in► the event
of a seieure being made by the rabble, the weapons will
be perfectly useless. The military will also be placed
in such positions that in case of any emergency they will
be ready at a moment's notice to assist the police and
civil powers.
It is not the intention of the Commissioners to prevent
the meeting taking place, but nothing in the shape of
processions or large bodies of people will be allowed to
pass through the streets of the metropolis. Should the
meeting last beyond the hoer of six in the evening, the
same will be declared illegal, and the ground will be
cleared of the populace.
It is expected that the meeting, which had not broken
up when we went to press, would march, en masse, to
Downing.street at its conclusion.
In the event of their doing so, a conflict with the
police, and failing, then the military, is unavoidable.
We shall give further particulars in our Third Edition
at seven o'clock.

George Bennett, an elector of Bewdley, who vras
partly examined on Saturday, was recalled this morning,
to prove that shortly before the last election be had a
conversation with Mr. Ackroyd, an agent of Sir Thom*,
Winnington, who gave him 5/. upon the understanding
that he and another voter named Stubbs would go to
London, to avoid being " picked up" by the Tories. Bo
and Stubbs went to Birmingham, to the railway station.
When they reached the station they discovered that
they were too late for the London train, and went to
Rugby, and stayed there all night, but the following
morning they returned to Bawdley, and voted for Mr.

LONDON. MONDAY. MARCH 13, 1643

Two nights have already been consumed in the
discussion which has taken place on Mr. Humn's
amendment for limiting the period for which the
income-tax shall be renewed to one year, in place
of three, as demanded by the CuaNcennou of the
EICPIEQUER ; and, as yet, the real question has
scarcely been aViluded to. The free-trade policy
would appear to have formed the subject of the debate,
rather than the ways and means, by which the
national txpetitliture is to be provided for, and the
interest of the National Debt duly satisfied. Few,
indeed, of those who have spoken on either side have
ventured to defend the justice of the tax in its
present form. Perhaps the Right Honourable
Gentleman the Member for the University of
Cambridge is the only person who Gould be found to
laud the principle on which it is levied, or to mut
London, England, 1848-03-13

HARWICH.

The Harwich Election Committee reassemb led this
morning; Mr. Stuart Wortley in the chair. -
Francis Hales, an auctioneer, proved that Mr. Rusk,
an agent of Mr. Attwood, having offices in Birchin-lane,
settled a debt amounting to 461., which a voter name"
Saxby owed to a Mr. Joyce.
Edward Saxby was called to prove that the 45/ was
advanced to him on mortgage of a boat which originalli
cost him 1501. Just before the election Mr. Gryq
pressed him for the money, and he asked Mr. Attwood
to advance him the money. He promised his vote to
Sir Dudley Hill, but upon that gentleman withdrawing
from the contest, he plumped for Mr. Attwood.
