GERMAN PAPERS.

VIENNA, Anat. 7.—Our government has a very
watchful eye on the political spirit which for some years
past has been at work in Hungary, and, for this reason,
permission to travel in Hungary was refused to three
Spanish engineers (Ezquera, Banga, son of the lately
deceased Director of the Typographical Bureau at Madrid,
and Amaz), who had been studying at Freiburg, thou=h
the Spanish ambassador had expressly intervened in their
behalf. The Chevalier de Mattos is shortly expected from
London, as Brazilian ambassador.
VIENNA, APRIL B.—Several young men have lately
been arrested in the Roman provinces. At Rimerir fif-
teen persons were arrested, whose names, it is said, were
found in the papers of the revolutionists in Piedmont.
Several Bologmen have been ordered to leave Rome and
go to their own homes.
MUNICH, APRIL 14.—1 t is only the calumniators of the
government who spread a report that it intends to make a
change in the French legislature in the Bavarian circle of
the Rhine. The reason assigned for departing from the
resolution to introduce publicity of judicial proceedings in
the whole kingdom, is the sentence of " not guilty," pro-
nounced by the jury, in the case of Wirth Siebenpfeitfer,
&c., and also the many causes relative to political offences
now pending in Bavaria.
KIEL, APRIL 19. —The 14th of this month being the
day on which our King completed the 50th anniversary of
his entrance into public life, was kept here, not, indeed,
by any public festivities, which his Majesty had expressly
prohibited, but in many private circles.

The General Steam Navigation Company's
mail packet, the Harlequin, from Hamburg, arrived off
the Custom House this morning, April 26.

• The City gf Hamburg steam-boat, belonging
to the General Steam Navigation Company, whose
launch was noticed in the public papers some time ago,
when the beauty of her model, and the superiority of
her build, and of her accommodations, were generally
acknowledged, left the river for the first time on her
passage to Hamburg on Saturday last. By letters re-
ceived by the mail, which has just arrived, it appears
that the City of Hamburg has, by her performance,
fully justified all the expectations entertained of her.
She made the passage to Hamburg in 53 hours and
20 minutes, against a contrary wind, and, by her early
arrival, surprised every one in Hamburg, where the
elegance and comfort of her cabin accommodations, and
the superiority of her qualities, as a sea-going vessel,
appear to have created universal admiration.
The packet-ship Britannia, Capt. Sketchly,
from New York, was docked on Saturday evening in
Liverpool, commenced the discharge of cargo on
Monday morning, finished the landing by two o'clock
on Tuesday, and commenced taking in cargo before
night. The ship is 630 tons register, and had full and
a very large cargo.
The Dublin Evening Mail of Wednesday
asserts that the parish priests in Ireland intend to re-
ceive the parish cess for their own purpose, and
instances the proceedings at a vestry in the county of'
Dublin, where a parish priest succeeded in having an
assessment of 2d. per acre levied for the support of the
Catholic schools of the parish.
REPEAL OF THE SEPTENNIAL ACT.—A
meeting of the united parishes of Lambeth, Kennington,
and Camberwell, comprising the borough of Lambeth;
was last night held at the Horns Tavern, Kennington,
for the purpose of petitioning the House of Commons
for the repeal of the Septennial Act ; Mr. Samuel
Palmer in the chair. The meeting was very nume-
rously attended, and Mr. Tennyson and Mr. Hawes,
the members for the borough, were present, as was
also Major Beauclerk, the member for the eastern di-
vision of Surrey.
Last week Mr. Lambert, contractor for
bricklayers and paviors' work to the commissioners,
gave notice to such of his men as were members of
the trades' unions. Whether Mr. L. finds he cannot
supply their places, or that his views regarding trades'
unions are changed, does not appear, but he has since
signified to the men that they may remain.—Brighten
Herald.

A STEEPLE-CHASE ON FOOT.-011 Satur-
day week a steeple-chase took place at Rugby. Thirty I
of the best runners in Rugby school started at half-
past three, at full speed, for Bailey Hill, a distance of
about four miles, which was accomplished by the win-
ner, Mr. M—n, in the space of 24 minutes. The !
fencing was stiff and frequent, the most difficult of "
which, a tremendous hedge and brook, was cleared in
fine style by most of the gentlemen, whilst others, ig-
norant of the existence of the brook, found themselves
suddenly immersed in a cold bath. In consequence of
there being no flags to mark the winning post, many of
the gentlemen, among whom were the two first favou-
rites, Messrs. B—d and G—h, going a great deal too
far to the left, were completely thrown out, though
their running was certainly superior to that of the winner.
The accounts from Leipsic state that the
annual fair there, which has just terminated, has proved
an unusually prosperous' one, nearly all descriptions of
goods, having sold well, and gone off very rapidly.
It would naturally be expected from this circumstance
that large orders will be sent to this country for all
articles of English manufacture ; but there is, it seems,
some hesitation among foreigners, because they fear
what the effect may be of the trades' unions, of the
proceedings of which they have heard so much recently,
and from which they are almost led to anticipate an
incapability of furnishing the accustomed supply of
goods for the consumption of the continent. It is
scarcely necessary to remark, though it is not sur-
prising that such notions should prevail at a distance,
that it is an exaggerated view of the case, but it may
be useful to let the fact be known among the working
classes in this country, who, by persevering in their
present course, may divert much of our trade into
foreign channels, at a time when the prospects for the
supply of the Continent, and, in fact, of the whole
world, are more favourable than they have been for
many years past.
