BELGIUM.

The Belgian Minister of the Interior, M. P. de
Decker, has addressed a letter to the Heads of the
Universities of Gand and Liege, in which he en-
joins the professors to abstain from all direct
attacks against the essential principles of the
religions professed in Belgium. He observes that
it is not necessary that the professors should
treat irritating and controverted questions
in their lectures, but that if ever they are led to
deal with such delicate matters it should be
done with reserve. The Minister observes, in the
course of his letter, that he is bound to take care
that the teaching of the universities shall be such
as may gain the confidence of families, and he re-
peatedly declares that he will discharge his duty
with firmness.

SOUTH AMERICA.

SOUTHAMPTON, FRIDAY EVENING,

The Royal Mail Company's steam ship Tyne,
Captain Valler, with the usual mails in charge of
Lieutenant Barrow, arrived this evening at seven
o'clock.

- -
The Tyne brings mails from Buenos Ayres, Sept.
9 ; Monte Video, 4th ; Rio do Janeiro. 14th ;
Bahia, 18th ; Pernambuco, 20th ; St. Vincent,
28th • Teneriffe, Oct. 2; Madeira, 4th; Lisbon, 7th.
The Tyne brings specie and jewels to the amount
of 30,0001., and on freight 270 barrels opioca,
20 serons ipecacuanha, 200 bags cocoa, fto
450 bags
of cochineal, and 1,000 boxes of oranges.
The anniversary of the independence of Brazil
was celebrated with great rejoicings on the 7th
Sept. The Emperor held a levee, and reviewed the
troops. In the evening the whole city was bril-
liantly illuminated. and the streets densely thronged
with people. The Emperor wont in state to the
Opera, which was crowded to the ceiling, and the
fair Brazilians were in a blaze of diamonds. Tam-
berlik carried the house by storm in singing a
national hymn.
A virulent outbreak of cholera took place at St.
Vincent on the 25th August, and lasted 15 days,
in which time, out of a population of 1,200, it car-
ried off 040. At the time the Tyne left there had
not been a case for 15 days.
H.M.S. Indefatigable, Madagascar, Harrier,
and Spy, with the French brig of war Beaurnauoir,
and the American frigate Savannah, were at Rio
Janeiro.
The Virago was at Pernambuco.
Advices from Buenos Ayres represent trade as
exceedingly dull, and the Government as in a
state of financial embarrassment. The deficit in
the revenue for the current year remained unpro-
vided for, for although the bill authorising the
creation of ten millions of public funds had been
sanctioned by the Chamber of Representatives, it
had not been taken into consideration by the
Senate, and its fate there was considered pro.
blematical.

COMMERCIAL.
BUENOS AYRES, AUG. 30.
Importations have been very moderate, and the com-
plaints, of bad assortments are louder and louder.i
For articles in demand there
mont in prices ; and most look forward with some
confidence to the ensuing month, should no political oc-
currence take place to mar the prospect.
The arrivals of articles of daily Consumption have
•
been frequent and heavy, but apparently not more so
than the necessities of the market require.
Rice is the article that has declined most. Rum or
cana is also in languid demand, and to realise sales
holders must abate somewhat of their late pretensions.
Sugar is firm and likely to remain so till the fato of the
crops in Brazil is certainly known. The consumption is
immense, and it is hardly possible to overstock the mar-
ket. Spanish wine, though abundant, continues firm,
and being also an articl,i of immense consumption, a very
short term is required to restore the equil.briurn of the
market. Gin is in good demand, avd may be considered
a safe article of investment.
Export Produce.--.Under this head we have no im-
portant variation to note since our lasi.

PERNAMBUCO, SEPT. 17.

Newfoundland, sold at 18 dole. 500 re. ; 50 barrels
per Soberano, from Lisbon, retailed by the importers,
and 2,950 barrels per Raonoak, from New York, which
proceeded on to Bahia ; the consumption during the
month has been about 3,400 barrels.
Manuractured Goods—The only arrival has been 255
pkgs. per Raoul, from 'Havre, which being damaged by
salt water are selling by public auction. The demand
in general is very limited.

don ; at 1,300,000 f., principally at 348 for indirect, and
at 350 to 353 for direct bills upon France, &c,, at m. b.

CANADA.
ARRIVAL OF THE CANADIAN.
LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY.

The Montreal Company's screw steamer Cauadian,
Captain Ballantine, arrived here last night. She
sailed from Quebec at five o'clock on the morning
of the 28th ult., having been detained in conse-
quence of the delay of the arrival of the Western
mails from the 27th. She brings a heavy cargo
and 112 passengers, besides the usual mails from
the British North American provinces. _

The Canadian passed the screw steamship Anglo-
Saxon, of the same line, October 2, lat. 53.26 N.,
lon. 49.15 W., hence to Quebec ; and on the 9th,
off the Copelands, the North American, for the
same port.
A fearful tornado had passed over a portion of
the Canadian provinces, destroying fences, break-
ing trees, and unroofing barns and houses. The
effects were felt in and around Kemptville.
From Nova Scotia we learn that at Windsor Mr.
Howe was elected without contest.

——-- --
The jury empanelled— upon— the Port Hope tra-
gedy had agreed to the following verdict :—"We,
the undersigned jurymen, empanelled to inquire
how and by what means Thomas Henderson, de-
ceased, came by his death, on our oaths, do find
that the said deceased came to his death by means
of a bullet discharged from a pistol in the hand of
George Brogdin ; and we do further find that said
George Brogdin committed such under great and
justifiable provocation, and would express the
strongest reprobation of that course of licentious-
ness on the part of the deceased which produced
such a fearful retaliation."
Commercial affairs at Quebec were exceedingly
quiet. The timber trade is reported to be steady.

THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

We have received files of papers from Cape
Town to the 2d Aug. inclusive. We take the fol-
lowing from the Cape Totem Mail of that date :
"We noticed last Saturday, a rumour prevailing
in Cape Town, that ' some alarm had been created
in the Caffre border.' Three posts have since arrived
from the frontier, without in the slightest degree
confirming that rumour, or even allgding to any suck.
alarm. There must, therefore, have been a mistake
somewhere. The rumour, probably originated in
some cDlliqons that have recently taken place
beyond the Orange River between the Free State
and a native chief named Wietze, a quarrel which is not
yet settled, and which it was feared at one time night
lead to something more serious between the State and
the powerful Chief of the Basutus, Moshesh. Peace
between those two parties is the paramount interest
of both. Of this, we have no doubt, hoth the President
Boshoff and the Chief Moshesh are personally aware
and convinced ; but it may not be entirely so
with some of the people under them, and there

exist, unhappily, some grounds of dissatislaction re-
specting boundaries which the British authorities
left undetermined when her Majesty's authority was
withdrawn from that quarter. There can bo no interfer-
ence now on our part unless both parties agree to submit
the question to the Governor or to the Queen as umpire,
as England and the United States of America did on a
similar occasion to the King of the Netherlands. This
would he the safest and cheapest course, provided both
parties bind themselves to abide by the award. A war
between them at present would be most destructive, and
could only end in the total ruin of one of the parties, by
no means to the advantage of either."

THE MEDITERRANEAN. —SOUTHAMPTON, Oct. 10.—The
Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Indus, Capt.
Brooke, with the heavy portion of the India, China, and
Mediterranean mails, in charge of Lieut. Darby, R.N.,
Admiralty agent, arrived this afternoon. Her are
Alexandria, Sept. 25 ; Malta, 29 ; Gibraltar,d Oct. tes a
4.
The Indus brings 35 passengers, and on freight 7 pack-
ages of specie, value 6,424/ , principally gold from Malt 1,
and a cargo, consisting of 2.778 bales of silk, 13 bags of
elephants' teeth, 22 cases of shawls, 6 cases of sundries,
3 cases of bloodstone, 3 cases of tortoiseshell, and 170
packages of general merchandise. At Malta were
H.M.S. Hibernia, and Shearwater ; Hannibal, flig, '
of Retie-Admiral Stewart, Fancy, Cracker, Clinker'
Firm, Flamer, Comet, Magnet, Harpy, Recruit, Curlew'
Wye, Arrow, Desperate, Supply, Wallace, Bulldog,
Hearty, Humber, and the Pera. H.M.S. Vesuvius a"
Ariel and the Peninsular and Oriental Company'sj
steamer Euxine were at Gibraltar. Our tpualpicel
from this port has not arrived by the Indus.

Sir Joseph Paxton, M.P., presided at the dinner suc-
ceeding the annual exhibition of the Bakewell Farmers'
Club, on Wednesday. In proposing the toast of the
evening, " Success and prosperity to the Bakewell Far-
mers' Club," the hon. gentleman expressed his pleasure
at the excellent exhibition of stock, ited proceeded to say
that last year he had introduced to the notice of the
secretary of the club a cheesemaking machine, believire,
as there were many dairy farms in the distt let, it might;
prove very advantageous. At his suggestion it was placed
in the hands of the largest cheeseinaker iu the neigh-
bourhood, and had been found to save a great deal of la-
bour, and 14 per cent. of material. He would recoil-
mend the club to adopt that experimental system with re-
gard to every new machine which they thought it desirabi e
to introduce. Having expressed an opinion that steam
ploughs would,never be made to answer, so as to be pro-
fitable to the farmer, Sir Joseph criticised the
sentiment
recently propounded at an agricultural meeting by Sir
'James Graham with respect to the untoward influence
which freedom in Russia might exert on the
condition of the English agriculturist. Sir James Graham must
have lot such a doctrine slip in an unguarded
for, in tru4t, whenever countries becamef
re momente
Last
week, for instance, we had 16,000 cl ra. of corn from
Russia, and only 4,000 from America, showing that
where commerce was carried on in a free country the
people were enslaved. If Russia were as free as England,
arts, manufactures, and other commercial pursuits woulll
flourish more and agriculture less.
Having spoken
in favour of a system of agricultural statistics, he re-
marked that, as far as he could gather from conversations
with many farmers in that part of the country, they
were desirous that any measure connected with agyicul•
tural statistics should be carried out on some
principle,
and that they should not be burdened with an expensive
machinery for its execution. If it could be done cheaply,
and with as little trouble as possible, there would be few
objections. Sir Joseph next referred to the question of
the sewage of large towns, advocating its application to
agricultural purposes, and concluded his address amid
loud applause. The Hon. G. H. Cavendish, M.P., and
other gentlemen, having acknowledged the toast, and
some other toasts having been proposed, the proceedings
terminated.

All green crop have wonderfully improved. The mangotd
wertzeleis as good as we ever remember to have seen it,
and Swede turnips are very fine in many places, but in
some instances the plant was destroyed by the black cater-
pillar. The wheat market has been gradually creeping
up, and we think, in ail probability, it will yet be higher.
We hear from all quarters great complaints of the yield,
and we believe that, notwithstanding the increased
number of acres sown last year, the whole quantity
grown will be less than of an average breadth and
yield. Good malting barley commands high prices,
and is likely to do so, as good qualities are rather
scarce, and a considerable portion of the crop is much
damaged by the weather,- Briglime (ifagette.

THE AUTRIANS IN ROMAGNA.

.wtR; •,*

The following letter ham been addressed to a con
temporary :
Sir,—When at the Paris Congress mention was
male of the painful state of affairs in Italy, you and
the English press spoke in favour of that unhappy
country ; and you did the same in the name of
humanity on the occasion of my flight from the
castle of Mantua. Tendering you my sincere
thanks, I at the same time beg you will bring under
the notice of the public the persecutions arid
cruelties Committed every day by the Austrians on
individuals that are not Austrian subjects, and in
a country where Austria has no right to be, viz.,
the Papal States, governed for the last seven years,
by three masters—the Pope, the Emperor of Aus-
tria, and the Emperor of the French.
The letters which I receive frum my friends are
full of accounts of the arbitrary acts daily com-
mitted by those powers on the population of that
unfortunate country. The following is what they
write to me from Romagna, one of the most en-
lightened provinces of Italy :
On the night of the 3d o f January, 1855, Count
Pasolini, a young man of 30, was arrested at Ce-
sena. The soldiers entered his palace throLigh a
window, which they burst open with axes, and on
the same night he was conducted to Bologna, slid
lodged in the prison of St. Agnese, where for seve-
ral months he was not permitted to have any hooka
or light. His mother, who is the sister of a gentle-
man holding a high appointment under the Aus-
trian Government, could only with difficulty ob-
tain permission to visit her son a year after his
confinement. He has now been in gaol 21 months ;
his health is gone, he havino, had two serious
illr-
nesses during this time ; and he has not yet under-
gone any examination, nor has he been told the
reason of his being arrested. A similar incident
occurred in that town on the 27th of the same
month, when the gens-d'armes entered the Excise-
office, arrested Artidoro Bazzacchi, one .of the
clerks, whom they took at once to Bologna, where
he is still languishing in a dungeon.
On the 15th of January, 1855, the Austrians
arrested at Bologna Alessandro Castegnoli, a stu-
dent at that university, and bastonaded him twice,
with several other students.

In the present year they arrested Baratelli, a
merchant ; Bezzi, a silversmith ; Talentoni, an In-
dependent gentleman ; and Tamourini, a Post,
office clerk. They endeavoured also to arrest at
Cesena the brothers Finali, one an advocate and
the other a surgeon ; also Monaresi, di Poggi, and
Valzania, landowners, but they all succeeded in
escaping into Piedmont.
In 1854, 28 persons were condemned without
any trial to 10, 15, 20 years' imprisonment, and
amongst this number there was a lady, named
Fenardi, belonging to a highly respectable family.
None of the sentences were made known, nor any
reason given why these unhappy beings were COD'
demnei. Even mention of the above is consi-
dered high treason. The Austrian governor at
Bologna orders the arrests, makes out the case
for the prosecution, superintends the trials,
signs the sentences ; in a word, he forms the
judge and jury, and his soldiery take the part of
executioners. Many young men from the Romagna,
who succeeded in escaping from the tyranny of
Austria, on landing at Marseilles were treated by
the French authorities in a manner which makes
humanity shudder. Without any motives, with-
out any suspicions against them, they were ar-
rested by the gens-d'armes, imprisoned, and when
there was a certain number, were conducted under
escort, like felons, par correspondance, to the
French coast, in order to be shipped to England.
This journey lasts from four to five months, and
these unfortunate men reach Dover half starved,
penniless, exhausted by fatigue and hardship, and
without knowing how to beg a piece of bread. The
only crime all these sufferers are guilty of is a great
love for their country. In this manner are treated
the Pope's subjects by the Emperors of Austria
and France ; and this is what is tolerated by
governments who are supposed to represent civi-
lised nations.
As the Paris Congress is about to meet again, in
the name of humanity, in the name of the peaze of
Europe, in the name of oppressed Italy, raise, sir,
your powerful voice, in order that an end be put to
such a disgraceful state of affairs.—l am, &c.,

THE WOMEN-FLOGGING! IN
MARYLEBONE.

1. Yesterday there was a full attendance of the Glirectora
and guardians of the poor of St. Marylebone, at the
workhouse, New•road, it being understood that Ain
Ridding would bring on his motion directing the master
of the workhouse to refuse 'compliance with the order of
the Poor•law Board that he should resign his situation.
Mr. Braess accepted the chair ; and, after a variety of •
business,
Mr. RIDDING, on being called on, said, as the subject
of the recent flogging, which had gained so much noto-
riety, was before the vestry, who, no doubt, had a right
to express an opinion in tie matter, and more especially
in respect so the interference of the Poor-law Board, and
as that body bad not come to a decision, he thought it
advisable that he should not proceed with his motion till
he knew what that decision was. Under these circum-
stances, he requested the permission of the board to
withdraws his motion for the present. (Hear, bear.)
The motion was then withdrawn.

securing them from the pollution they were now sub- -
j ected to, but that the room created would afford a bet-
ter classification for the workhouse inmates. When such
a boon could be effected for 4001. a-year, he hoped the
guardians would not hesitate to carry it out.
Mr. WII. CARR opposed the motion. He had no oh- te
jection to moving the children right away from the con' ;
taminating, influence of the workhouse into the country,
but to remove them to a place in such close proximity
to the workhouse was an absurdity.
2,1 r. RIDDING also opposed the motion. In addition
to the 4001. per year rent for the premises desipt,ated.
there must be a large outlay to adapt it for the use of
the children. (Hear.)
On a show of hands, the motion was negatived by *
majority of 8 to 4, and on a division by 14 to 6.
Dr. BACHHOFFNER, with much warmth, declared that
this was the third time the question had been mooted.
and that those who refused to " train up children in the
way they should go" must take the responsibility.
The board, after other business, separated.

IV-OTHER FATAL CASUALTY AT BRYNA
MALLY iiINE.

WREXHAM, Thursday Night.—Upon revisiting the
scene of the late fatal accident at Bryn-Mally mine this
morning we found a larger crowd than yeiterday. The
same anxious expression told the spectator at a glance
that the water in the workings had not been sufficiently
reduced to allow of a descent being made in search of
their missing. comrades. The cage was still lifting out
immense volumes of water at every stroke, but the
engine which is ordinarily used for keeping the mine dry
was idle in consequence of a lamentable accident which
occurred last evening. About 8 o'clock, the chief engi-
neer, Robert Kenrick, had descended the pumping shaft
a short distance for the purpose of changing the buckets,
and was engaged in that duty when suddenly the eapstaa
chain broke, and with some other gearing fell upon him,
knocked him off the barrel or platform on which be was
standing, and precipitated him to the bottom of the shaft.
His body was gut out the same evening, and conveyed
to his residence ontehaers works close by, where it now
lies waiting the coroner's inquisition. The unfortunate

attending -had been worked at a great pressure, making
come 12 strokes a minute, and raising 60 gallons of water
per stroke. The wear of the buckets must have been
very great and necessitated their being replaced, but
there was no reason to believe that any other part of th
machinery had been weakened by the extraordinary ser-
vice demanded of it. With the chain which caused
Kenrick's death a rod had also become displaced, and at
noun to day had not been recovered. It is expected that
the pumping by this means will, however, be resumed
to-night, and notwithstanding this untoward occurrence,
we are happy to state the water is slightly diminishing,
although the quantity raised is only one-half that raised
yesterday. Information has been forwarded to the Go-
vernment Inspector, to afford him an opportunity of
attending the inquest.

THE CROPS IN NORTIIIIMBERLAND.—NEWCUSTLE•
UPON-TYNE, Thursday Night. —We have bad two
charming autumnal days, with a prospect of continued
fine weather. Farmers are busy in every part of this
comitywhere wheat 18 out, drying end carting what is
in ,tucks,
ito(iks, and cutting down the standing corn. Six or
ei,rht days more of fine weather would complete the har-
,j i 3t. There sno question that what is now being
gathered is a good deal damaged by the late storms, but
there is every prospect that it will be get into the stack-
yard in a better condition than might have been con-
templat,cl some four or five days ago. If many of the
farmers had not adopted that system of economy known
" saving at the tap and losing at the bunghole" many
fine crops= might have been secured in the stackyard
before the storm came on. It must be very mortifying
to them, and it is to be hoped will be a warning in future,
as they are leading their damaged crops home, to see the
rickyards of their neighbours, who have pursued a
sounder and more liberal policy, well stored with the
well-harvested fruits of their industry and forethought.

CITY, Two o'CLooL

The Liverpool Cotton. Market, yesterday, closed
firmly, at a slight advance in prices. The sales were
'estimated at 15,000 bales (of which 6,000 were
taken by the exporters and 6,000 by speculators).
The Railway Share Market closed with a firm
feeling, and a fair amount of business was trans-
acted.

Accounts from the grain market at Brussels state
that there were larger arrivals than usual yesterday,
which caused a further decliao in prices, but the
-sales were of limited extent, as the buyers expect to
have grain cheaper before the end of the month.
The ruling prices were 31 fr. to 34 fr. per hec-
tolitre for wheat ; 18fr. to 20fr. per ditto for rye ;
and 7 fr. to 8 fr. for oats. From the imports re-
turns of grain into Belgium, it appears that the gross
amount is much greater this year than it was during
1855, at the same time the large quantities which have
been transmitted to the interior reduce the actual
amount to about the same. This is the case parti-
cularly at Antwerp, where the imports are chiefly
conveyed by railway into the neighbouring states.
The following table gives the imports of cereals
during the last fortnight of September and the
nine months ended on the 30th of that month :-

The Bank of England Return for the week end-
ing the 4th inst. is exceedingly unfavourable, as
will be seen by the subjoined particulars. In the
bullion the decline is nearly a million sterling,
.owing to the withdrawal on account of the Bank
of France. The other securities, and the reserve
of notes, in consequence of the severe pressure for
money, have undergone a material change. The
next statement, however, is likely to be still more
unsatisfactory.

The Funds have been buoyant this morning in
consequence of large purchases of stock for invest-
ment. It was supposed that the unfavourable
tank of England Return would have had a depress-
ing effect, but, beyond a little flatness anterior
to the official opening of the market, this was
/lot the case. Consols have been as high
as 92 to for money, and 92g- for ac-
count, and they are now 92 921 and 921
21, respectively. Exchequer Bills are 4s. to Bs.
Premium, and the Bonds 981. The New 3 per
Cents. are marked 911 .85-, and the Reduced An-
ooi 91. Bank Stock is 2111.
The Foreign Market has been dull, but firmer.
Turkish 6 per Cents. have risen to 92/ 93&, and
the 4 per Cents. to 100/. Spanish 3 per Cents.
are 1 per sent. better, viz., 43. Sardinian are 891,
and Russian 4 per Cents. 971.
The following are the nominal prices of Foreign
Stocks :—Grenada Deferred Bonds, 64 7 ; Mexi-
can, 21f 22 ; Peruvian, 76 78 ; ditto 3 per Cents.,
54 56 ; Portuguese 3 per Cents., 43 45 ; Russian
6 per Cents., 106 108 ; ditto 41 per Cents., 96 98 ;
Spanish 3 per Cents., 41 21 ; ditto Deferred,

tions, and a fair amount of business has been done
ill North-Western, South-Western, and Midland.
The advance in some instances is ss. to 10s. The
French, Belgian, East Indian, and Canadian, all

TESTIMONIAL TO SIR WILLIAM GORDON, BART., OF
EARLEITON.—The subscribers to this testimonial have re-
solved to present to Sir William a portrait, by a first-
Class artist, of himself and his charger ; and to devote
the remainder of the subscription to remounting with
hilt and scabbard the good blade which he wore at
Balaklava. Sir William is also to be invited to a public
dinner in Kirkcudbright on the 25th ins.t.—Edinburult
Courant.
A lIERICAN Menarrs.—The commercial advices yes-
terday by the Atlantic describe a slight decline in the
stock market, with the exception of Illinois Central,
which had advanced to 1121. The 185,060/. of specie
brought on this occasion comprises 30,000/. of Mexi-
can silver. The market fur imported manufactures
continued with a good appearance, although some tail-
ores in the dry goods trade had been reported from
different parts of the Union. Among these were Mar-
tin Lewis, of Baltimore, and Jacks, Keeler, and cd,,
of St. Louis. There had also been one at Boston,, but none at New York. The wheat market had slightly
advanoed, some large purchases having been made for
Spain. There was also an impression that the accounts
01 the late crop will not be borne out. It was pro-
nounced to be 10 per cent, above any former season,
but the belief now is that, although the quality is ex•
cellent, the quantity will prove below an average, the
Yield in Michigan, Ohio, New York, and Virginia hav-
ing been very deficient.
FATAL ACCIDENT IN OXFORD STREET.—Yesterday
afternoon Mr. Wakley proceeded with an important in-
quiry at the Lord Wellington, University-street, Tot-
tenham Court-road, touching the death of Caroline
liurley, the daughter of Irish parents, which took place
Mader the subjoined circumstances. It appeared from
the evidence that for some time past the roadway in
New Oxford-street at the corcerof Russell-street, Blooms-
bury, has been under repair, and, to prevent vehicles
Passing along the roadway, was blocked up by means of
wooden trestles erected at either end of the work. In
consequence of the street being free from public traffic,
the poor children of the neighbourhood resorted there to
Play, and the deceased, it would seem, was amongst the
number : for while some persons were passing they ob-
served the hapless little creature 13 ing on the ground,
with one of the trestles across her head. The inspector
of the works could not account for the trestle falling,
and said that it could not, unless some person had closed
It UP. The jury, after a brief deliberation, recorded a
verdict of accidental death ; specially recommending
that a bar in future should be used instead of a chain.
