FRANKFORT.

We have received intelligence from Frankfort to
the 24th. The city was then in a state of great ex.
citement. On the 23d the following address was
placarded on the walls of the city :

" FUNERAL SOLEMNITIES.
" As some of the soldiers who fell on the 18th ult.
have been buried with great display, while the civilians
who fell have been secretly interred, without song or
salvo; as the friends, even, and relations of the fallen—
among whom were a girl—and many others who are
well known to have taken no part in the riot—have been
prevented, by an intentional concealment of the time of
burial, from paying the last honours to those they love;
as thus, the eternal principle of death being reconciled
and hate extinguished,' has been disregarded, a number of
the members of the National Assembly will, on Sunday,
the 24th September, at eight a.st , repair to the church
yard, where Professor Zimmermann, of Stuttgard, will
deliver an address to the memory of the fallen. Who-
ever will take part in this act of solemnity has herewith
a friendly invitation to attend. Place of meeting, Hotel
d'Allemagne. Time, half-past seven, A.M."

This meeting and funeral procession was forbidden by
the Ministry, and General Nontu, the Acting-Com-
mandant, informed those who had issued the placard
that while the state of siege continued it was not per-
mitted to any person to issue any placard which had
not been first submitted to his perusal. At the same
time he issued the following edict

"In respect of the edict of the 18th Sept., proclaim-
ing a state of siege, every one is warned from taking part
in processions, crowds, or concourses of the people.
"He who does not respond to this warning will be
arrested and brought before a court-martial.
" By order of the Commandant of the Imperial Troops.
" General NOBILI.

"Frankfort, Sept 23."

To add to the excitement, intelligence was received
at Frankfort, on the 23d, that STRUVE, at the head of
3,000 Republicans, had taken Freiburg, and was
marching on Frankfort. Troops were immediately
dispatched to meet him. The generale was beat, and
the whole Burgher Guard of Frankfort turned out at
six o'clock on the morning of the 24th, and the Hes-

BADEN.

A letter from Carlsruhe, of the 22d September,
says :
" Intelligence received from Oberland states that a
considerable number of the free corps, commanded by
Struve, have cleared the frontier at Larrach, and have
entered the Grand Duchy. They pillaged the public
treasury at Leopoldsluice, menaced the peaceful inhabi•
tants of Larrach, and committed acts of violence against
the functionaries. The inhabitants offered resistance,
but they were repulsed. Struve and his men, amounting
to nearly 3,000, had already arrived at Schliengen.
" Every necessary
.measure has been taken to put an
immediate stop to this new revolt. Troops are to be
sent from hence this morning under the command of
General Hoffman."

MARKET NEWS.—(Tms pAY.I

CORN EXCHANGE—WEDNESDAY.
Several parcels of English Wheat have been received
up to our market this week, Coastwise as well as by
land carriage. The show of samples to-day was by no
means large; yet, owing to the extensive quantities of
foreign released for home consumption, the demand
for all kinds of Wheat of home produce was in a very
sluggish state, at Monday's depression in the quotations.
With Foreign Wheat we wero heavily supplied. Even
the finest qualities were a dull sale. In prices, however,
wo have no further depression to notice. Barley—The
supply of which was by no means extensive—moved off
slowly, and, in some instances, the value of grinding
Peas, and Indian
C
parcels had a downward tendency. Exceedingly little
business was transacted in Malt, the prices of which were

The Russian troops again occupy Kalisch. It is
said that the Poles in Posen contemplate snaking
another demonstration in favour of Polish nationality.
LIBELT and PALLAu have been for several days in
Posen. The Prussian General keeps the garrison
constantly under arms, and the guns of the citadel

rejected, but CHARLES ALBERT intends to comprise

PRINTERS' ALMSHOUSES.—The annual meeting of
the subscribers to the printers almshonse fund took
place last evening, at the Mechanics' Institution, South-
ampton-buildings, R. Taylor, Esq., F.S.A., presided.
The report congratulated the subscribers on the progress
which had been made by the Committee in furtherance
of the object in view—the erection of the almshouses. A
piece of ground as a site for the proposed building had
been obtained at Wood-green, near Tottenham, at a total
cost, including legal expenses, of 6031., and it was pro-
posed to lay the first stone in the spring of next year.
The total receipts to the present period amounted, de-
ducting expenses, to 2,1741., which, it was hoped, would
remain with the committee as funded property ; it being
confidently expected that the greater part of the sum
necessary for the erection-I,sool.—might bo obtained
from other sources. Amongst the present subscribers
are Lord George Bentinck, M.P., Mr. Thornely, M.P.,
&e. It was intended to fix the age for admission into the
asylum at 60. A variety of statements having been
read, and subscriptions announced, the report was
agreed to. The meeting soon after Wards separated.

UNEXAMPLED BRUTALITY OF THE

PRUSSIAN TROOPS.

The village of Stempuchow, in the district of
Wongrowier, belonging to M. MOSZIZENSKI, has been
three times searched for arms by the Prussian soldiery.
They plundered the house of the proprietor, fired
after the flying villagers, flogged several among them,
carried off whatever they thought worth anything ;
and when they had nothing more to take, they seized
a girl of seventeen years, MARIANNE TAGODZINSKA ;
four among them held her down, whilst seven others
violated her person. After this unheard-of act of
brutality an officer came up, and seeing the girl
covered with blood, he offered her—in order to pacify
her—a dollar, which she flung back with indignation.
The poor girl is now lying in a most precarious state.
During the search for arms the corpses of the
proprietor's ancestors were flung out of their family
grave.

The above was sworn to by two eye-witnesses,
JOSEPHA GULEWIG and ANDREW LIPINSKI, and the
person communicating this to the Gazeta Polska,

MOLDAVIA AND WALLACHIA.
JASSY, JUNE 26.—A dispatch has just been re-
ceived from the Consular Agent at Jassy, to the fol-
lowing effect :
" JASSY JUNE 26.—1 n Wallachia, Prince Bibesco, in
compliance with the wishes of his pesple, bas accepted
the constitution, and has formed. a committee of eight
members.

" The Russian General Dichamel, who left Bucharist
for Reussich-Leona, by the i'ruth, has returned to
Jassy, and has communicated to the Turkish commis-
sioners that a Russian army of 25,000 men, cavalry and
infantry, had entered the Moldavian territory, and might
be expected this evening at Jassy.
" A portion of the army had remained in Moldavia
to protect the Government of Prince Stourdza, and the
greater part of the army was continuing its route to
Wallachia.

" Even before the first intelligence of these events i❑
Wallachia had been received here, the Turkish commis-
mission had dispatched a courier to Constantinople to
give orders to the Turkish troops to enter the princi-
palities of the Danube."

ITALY.

LOMBARD Y.

The siege of Verona is postponed till the second
week of July, and it is exceedingly problematical if
it will take place even then.
The Ventidue Alamo of Milan, of the 4th, an-
nounces that the Provisional Government of Lom-
bardy has invited General Zuccnr to Milan, where
his long military experience may be profitable to the
Italian cause. On the 29th ult, the Civic Guard of
Venice being assembled on the Campo de Marte,
cried " Viva CARLO ALBERTO I" and the President
harrangued them, recommending the fusion of Venice
with Piedmont. His words wer e received with loud
cheers.

SCHLESWIG-HOLSTEIN.

STRALSUND, JULY 3.—An English brig lying in
our harbour has hoisted the Danish flag for the last
week. This unequivocal insult to German nationality
in a Prussian harbour, though, of course observed by
the authorities of the harbour, was not prohibited by
them. Several young seamen of Stralsund, whose
patriotism took fire at this arrogance of the English,
last night carried off the Danish flag from the English
brig. The captain was dreadfully enraged that the
Germans had stolen his flag, and swoie awfully at
them. Early this morning, however, it was seen
Boating from its former elevation, with the addition
of a large ape's head, painted in striking colours,
amid the hurrahs of the German seamen. " These
arrogant English," cried they, " are taking the bread out
of our mouths this summer. It is notorious that they
hold more with the Danes than with us ; but we will
not suffer them to heard us in our own barbour."
With many vociferations the captain ordered the flag
to be taken down.

RENDSHURGIT, JULY s.—We give the following
extract from a letter found on one of the prisoners
on board the Dronning Maria, dated July 2 :
" Our situation is becoming more intolerable, and I
cannot imagine why the exchange of prisoners is so
long delayed. Both the Ministers LEHMANN and
YSEHERNING had been on board. The latter said to
one of my fellow prisoners, in reply to his petition,
that the monied men might be released. I have
Already three times proposed to General WRANGEL an
exchange of prisoners, but he would not hear of it.
" Hook upon you as prisoners of war, your Gene-
ral, however, does not appear to consider you as such."
The exchange of the federal troops has already
taken place, but it seems that our release is thought

TRIAL TRIP OF THE NEW IRON

STEAMER CAMBIA.

On Thursday a trial of the beautiful new iron steamer
Cambria, constructed by Mr. John Laird, of Birkenhead,
was made between this port and the Menai Strait, under
the command of LiQut. Keane, RN. The Cambria is the
property of the Chester and Holyhead Railway Company,
and is intended, when the works at Holyhead are completed,
to ply between that station and Kingstown, in con-
nexion with, or rather in extension of, the railway. She
is an exceedingly beautiful vessel, of fine model, re-
markably neat appearance, and great strength. The
utmost care and skill have been exercised in so con-
structing her that she may combine the best qualities of
a seaboat with the highest amount of speed. The fol-
lowing are the particulars of her dimensions, &c.:—

THE ARMISTICE IN SCHLESWIG.

HULL, MONDAY NIGIIT.—The Helen MacGregor,
Captain FROST, arrived at seven o'clock this evening.
She brings Hamburgh letters and papers down to the
Bth inst.

Since Thursday 2,000 Prussian troops have passed
through Hamburgh to join the army in Schleswig,
and 3,000 were expected by Tuesday next.
It was reported that the King of PRUSSIA declined
to ratify the treaty proposed by England and Russia
without the consent of the Germanic Parliament,
which was not expected to confirm it.

The feeling against the proposed terms of the treaty
was very strong among the Germans.

The account; received from Copenhagen to. day are
still warlike, and the nation is fully prepared to con-
tinue the contest with renewed vigour ; they say that
the Germans cannot ratify such a treaty, and if they
do not, assistance is certain to be given to Denmark
by other Powers.

LONDON, TUESDAY, JULY 11, 1848.

We carefully abstained from noticing or making
the slightest allusion to the subject of the recent
Chartist trials, so long as a single one of the cases re-
mained sub judice, and a jury had as yet to pro-
nounce its verdict on the guilt or innocence of any of
the accused. The last and most important of these
trials took
.place yesterday. In every instance the
offences charged have been most conclusively es-
tablished against the several prisoners. The majesty
of the law has been vindicated, and those who at-
tempted to disturb the pace and tranquillity of the
entire nation, and to stimulate men suffering the
privations consequent upon a general cessation of
ernploynient, to armed resistance against the
authorities, are now undergoing the severe
but salutary punishment due to the crimes
for which they have been convicted. It is
now, therefore, perfectly legitimate to direct the
public attention to the serious character of these
effences, to show that it was essential to the safety of
the country that such proceedings should be nipped
in the bud, and suppressed by force of law before
matters bad assumed a still more formidable aspect,
and the unhappy dupes of those misguided men had
been plunged into guilt of still greater magnitude,
-which could alone have been expiated by an ignomi-
nious death on the scaffold. It cannot be denied that
the law officers of the Crown, in selecting the cases
