CALCUTTA, Nov. 8.

The Government Committee has recommended
the Bombay tariff for all India.

MELBOURNE, OCT. 26.

Mr. Stuart and his companions have been driven
back by the natives, after having penetrated as far
as lat. 19, long. 134. The country was found to be
rich and fruitful.

The following are the departures of gold ships :
The Roxburgh Castle, with 41,703 ounces, and the
Great Britain, with 118,560 ounces.

The exports of wool reach 2,790 bales. Business
is steady.

Accounts from New Zealand are to the 12th Oc
The news of the rebels is still unsatisfactory.

FRANCE.

guy sent invitations to 100 notables to assemble al
Gran on the 17th inst. "The chief object of the
meeting,' says his Eminence, will be the settle-
ment of the question relative to an electoral law, by
means of which the Diet is to be constituted.' Che
ven, prelate writes in a despondent tone, and he
has great reason to do so, for three-fourths•of hi
fellow-countrynien refuse to obey the orders of
the Government. In fact, the state of things
in Hungary is to all intents and purposes revolu-
tionary. Tobacco which has paid no duty is pub-
licly sold by the peasants in the villages, and in
more than one case gendarmes have been passive
spectators of the illegal traffic. Six weeks ago
Baron `'ay was one of the most popular men in
Hungary, but he is now regarded with an eye of
suspicion by persons who were formerly his devoted
partisans. Count Szechen is so unpopular that hie
fellow countrymen openly accuse him of having
" betrayed" the cause of his native country. The
Count naturally has a bias in favour of a Govern-
ment of which he is a member, but it is a notorious
fact that no one has more resolutely upheld the rights
and privileges of the Hungarian nation than he.
A few days ago the German names of the streets
in Agram were daubed over with black paint, and
on the 2Sth November there was an anti-Ger-
man demonstration in the theatre. The German
actors and actresses were not allowed to perform,
and when they attempted to address the public
they were pelted with rotten eggs, and other
equally offensive missiles. The orchestra played
" God save the Emperor," but the noise made by
the audience was so tremendous that hardly a note
could be heard. The disturbance continued until
a Croat actor appeared and promised his fellow-
countrymen that in future the Sclavonic language
should be used on the stage. During the follow-
ing night several howitzers and other guns were
introduced into the capital of Croatia.
"On the 29th of November, the anniversary of

the Polish Revolution of 1830, there was a poli-
tical demonstration in the theatre at Lemberg,
and a fraternisation of the Poles and Ruthenes.
On the same day the students at Cra-
cow committed an assault on M. von Czer-
kawski, an Imperial employe, who is opposed to
the introduction of the Polish language into the
public schools. The troops were called out, and
under their protection M. von Czerkawski was able
to get to the railway station, and to leave for Lem-
berg in a close carriage. There has recently been
a movement of Prussian troops towards the Grand
Duchy of Posen, and Russian forces have been
pushed forward to the western frontier of the kind-
dom of Poland. The Austrian Government keeps
a watchful eye on Galicia, but there is no reason
to believe that the garrisons in that province have
been reinforced.

" Information has been received here (Vienna)
hat a great depot of arms is to be formed in the

Danubian Principalities. In fact, artillery, rifles,
ammunition, &c., have already been sent by the
Sardinian Government to the Sulina."

A letter from Vienna, dated Oct. 7, says :—All
the Hungarians who come to this city tell me
that the disturbances which daily occur in one or
other of the cities and towns are of little import-
ance, but the Mag,y arised Germans are ill at ease,
and complain of difficulties being thrown in the way
of . those who are desirous to maintain peace and
order. On the 4th inst. M. von Mailath, the
Tavernicas, addressed a letter to M. Leopold Rot-
tenbiller, who was burgomaster of Pesth in 1848,
requesting him to take the direction of municipal
matters for the time being, and to do all in his
power to prevent any further excesses being com-
mitted Rottenbiller, who belongs to the Liberal
party, readily consented to do what was requested
of him, and his first step was to send for a certain
M. Elak Thaiss, and to make him captain of the
city (police director) ad interim. A better choice
could not have been made, for M. Thaiss, a man of
Herculean proportions, is the idol of the students,
because he has always had the courage openly to
express his political opinions,which are very liberal.
As soon as he had received his appointment, M.
Thaiss—who passed a year and a half in a Bohe-
mian fortress after the revolution was at an end—
sent for some of the more influential students, and
told them that he needed their support. It was
promised, and as all the metpllic double-heeded
eagles have now been removed from the municipal
buildings, it is possible that order may be
tolerably well maintained until M. Thaiss has
had time to organise the municipal police. The
disturbances which occurred at Nyiregyhaza on the
2d inst. were of a very serious nature. The people,
who were armed with prongs, axes, and clubs, not
only smashed many windows and window frames,
but burst open the gates and doors of houses which
were inhabited by persons distasteful to them. The
fury of the mob was directed against the so-called
" patental Protestants," that is, against those Sla-
vonic Protestants who accepted the Imperial Patent
of September, 1859. The intervention of the
armed force was required, but the people were
so excited that they stood their ground until
a detachment of curassiers charged into the very
midst of them. Several persons were wounded,
and many more arrested. The state of siege has
not been proclaimed, but no one is allowed to carry
an axe or a stick. At 8 o'clock in the evening all
the inns are closed, and after that hour every person
walking in the street must carry a lantern. There
have been disturbances again at Debreezin ; and at
Nagy Koros, a town with 18,000 inhabitants in
the county of Pesth, a violent collision between the
troops and the people. It appears that a crowd of
peasants rushed into the barracks used by the
Finance Guard, and took possession of all the guns
they found there. The employes in the tax and
police offices ran away, and as soon as their backs
were turned the double-headed eagles were hauled
down. The Szegers were called out, and after a
charge had been made with the bayonet all the
peasants who were able to do so took to their heels.
Several families have altogether removed from
Nagy Koros to Pesth.
In substance the petition sent by the Croato-
Slavonian Banal Conference to the Emperor is as
follows :
" 1. That the Slavonic may be the official language of
the country and of its employes. 2. That a provisional
Croato-Slavonic Court Chancery be formed until the ques
tion of the union with Hungary has been settled by the
nation, as the Minister of State cannot legally manage the
affairs of Croatia and Slavonia. 3. That a Croato-Sla-
vonic Court Chancellor be appoiuted inmediaely, and
that he make known to your Majesty the names of the
persons who wish to have as Obergespans of the counties.
4. That Dalmatia, the islands of Veglia, Ckerso, and Lussin,
and the districts of Castelnuovo, Volosca, and Albona may
be reunited, and for ever reunited to Croatia and Slavonia."
It is related that his Majesty has agreed to do
what is required by his Croato-Slavonic subjects,
but it will assuredly be seen that the report is
incorrect.
