AUSTRIA.

A letter just received from Vienna says :
"Austria has not as yet taken any part in the ne-
gotiations to induce England to give up the island
of Perim, and that from two motives in the first
place, her relations with that Power are so intimate
at present, and both are BO perfectly agreed
on all the great European questions, that
Austria will certainly not oppose England on this
question. In the second place, it is known at
Vienna, through Lord Redcliffe, that England will
n e
unless ctohnes
possession te the
ofthe
opening
islan of the canal of Suez
d be guaranteed
to her. It is moreover certain that Austria is
endeavouring to prepare a mediation. She seeks,
in fact, to induce the Porte to accept a pecuniary
indemnity, which England is ready to give, and
which probably would have already been accepted.
at Constantinople if M. de Thouvenel had not pre-
vented it." The same letter says :—" MM. Go-
lesco and Bratiano, members of the Divan of
Wallachia, who have been here for some days, were
received on the 11th by Count de Buol, to whom
they were presented by Prince Kalimaki. They
leave to-morrow for Paris, where they intend to
solicit an audience of the Emperor."

The most recent accounts from Stuttgard do not
announce any sensible improvement in the state
of the King of Wurtemberg. The malady with
which he is affected presents, on account of his
advanced symptoms calculated to cause great
uneasiness.

every day diminishing, and a certain degree of fever

CANADIAN AND AaIERICAN EMIGRATION.—An im-

by steam or by sailing ship, and the railway fare to
upwards of 150 leading stations and cities in Canada
and the United States, as far even as Kansas, a dis-
tance of 1,694 miles from Quebec, and of 1,818 from
Portland. The valuable pamphlets on the resources of
Canada, the map of Canada, showing the railway
connections with the United States, the tariff of
through rates, and the protection afforded to emigrants
by the Grand Trunk route, continue to be issued as
usual, gratis, on application either personally or by
letter, at 21, Old Broad-street, London, E.O.
London, England, 1858-01-18

Money was in better request, but, with an abun-
dant supply, there was not much change in rates,
th,m,211, perhaps, the facilities for obtaining it on
second-class paper were not so great as they were
the previous week. High grades of paper were still
scarce. We quote No. 1 signatures 8, 10, and 12
per cent., and names less known and second-class
notes, 12 to 30 per cent. On call there was an abun-
dant supply of naJhey at 6to 7 per cent. The Bank
statement showed an increase in all the items, that
in the specie line amounting to nearly a million and
a half. The actual increase in the deposits was nearly
two millions. The discount like had been enlarged
to the amount of about $650,000. The line was
$3,586,856 higher than the minimum on the 28,h
Nov. last, and $23,527,269 below the maximum on
the 8,11 Aug. last.
Bankers' bills at 60 days on London terms ranged
from 1094 to 110; short sight, 110 k to 111. The
stock-market on the sth exhibited more activity.,
A private circular says

"The heavy payments of interest'due on the Ist inst.
were met with unexpected promptness, the only im-
portant default being in the coupons of the Erie Rail-
road 1862 bonds, which it was previously understood
cock/ not be provided for. The Michigan Central Rail-
road Company has been compelled to ask for an extension
of one year on part of the principal of its bonds, due on
the Ist inst. The instalments on the new loan lately
negotiated having been paid principally in its own liabi-
lities, the company, contrary to general expectation, is
unable to meet these bonds in full at present.
The demand for wheat was light, but, with not a
great deal pressing on the market, there was little
or no variation in prices. The quotations were—
White Southern, $l2l to $l3O • and red and mix d

THE RELIEF OF LITCKNOW.

---
General Order by the Governor-General of India in
Council.

Fort William, Dec. 10, 1857.

The Governor-General in Council directs that the ac-
companying despatches from his Excellency the Com-
mander-in-Chief, which reached the Government of
India last night, be at once published in general orders.
Thesedespatches declare the signal defeat of the rebels
in the city of Lucknow, and the completely successful
rescue of the women and children, sick and wounded,
together with their heroic defenders, from the long-be-
leaguered residency.
Of the military operations described in them the Go-
vernor-General in Council will not presume to speak.
They are explained fully and clearly, and every sentence
bears proof of their having been guided by a master-
hand, and of that unbounded mutual confidence between
the soldiers and their commander which, as it is the
growth of past dangers and triumphs shared in common,
so is it the assurance of victories yet to come.

Most heartily doss the Governor-General in Council
congratulate the Commander-in-Chief and his brave
companions in arras upon the first frills of their brilliant
achievement. To have been the instruments through
which, by God's blessing, the inmates of the Lucknow
residency have, in the face of extraordinary difficulties,
and in the presence of a numerous enemy, been snatched
from danger and placed in security, will be a life-long
source of pride and satisfaction to every man who has
had part in the work.

OPENING OF THE FRENCH

LEGISLATURE.

THE EMPEROR'S REMARKS ON THE
ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION.

PARIS, MONDAY AFTERNOON.

The Emperor's discourse at the opening of the
Legislative Session announces several administra-
tive measures. He stated that in China the French
were acting in concert with the English fleet, to
obtain the redress of grievances. " I cannot con-
clude without spe iking of the late criminal attempt,
and I deplore the sacrifice of so many victims in
the attempt to reach the life of one iudividual.
However. such plots convey a useful lesson.
In the first place, those who have recourse to them
betray their own weakness and impotence. In the
second place, assassination never serves the cause of
assassins. either those who struck Julius Caesar,
nor they who struck Henri IV., profited by their
murder. God sometimes permits the death of the
just; but never the triumphs of crime. These at-
tempts can neither disturb the present nor the
future. If I live, the Empire will live with me ;if
I fall, the Empire will be confirmed even by my
death ; for the indiguation of the French people
and army will afford a new prop to the throne o
my son."

AMERICA.

LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY.
The Royal Mail steamship Persia, Capt. Judkins,
arrived this afternoon, with advices from New York
to the Gth inst., and $1,930,795 69c. on freight.
The Persia spoke the Atl mac on the 6th, bound
fur New York, the Europa on the 14th, and the
Kangaroo on the 15th.

Tile Niagara arrived at Boston on the 3d.
Among the passengers by the Persia were Mr.
Korturk and 16 of the crew of the ship Devonport,
bound from Quebec to Cardiff, which wits aban-
doned on the 4th of Decembsr, and the crow taken
to New York by the Donau.
-In the House of Representa.ives, Mr. Clingman,
from the Committee on Foreign R.-lations, sub-
mitted resolutions calling upon the President for
a'l the papers and information relating to the
seizure of Walker, and for all instructions, &-c.,
given to Commodore Paulding on the subject. At
least a dozen amendments were offered, and a vast
deal of talk indulged in which was entirely irrele-
vant. Humphrey Marshall proposed an amend-
ment that the President inform the House whether
the United States, by treaty or otherwise, had
agreed with the Government of Nicaragua to keep
open the Transit route, and to use the forces of
the United States for that purpose if necessary,
which was adopted.
A similar resolution passed the Senate. The
Danish Sound Dues Treaty was agreed to. Gen.
Quitman, in a lengthy speech, offered resolutions
referring the whole subject of the Neutrality Laws
to a select committee. He denounced Commander
Paulding's act in seizing General Walker, and went
in for Filibustering generally. He was applied to
by Mr. J. Glancy Jones. Mr. Stephens, of
Georgia, thought the reference of that portion of
the message should be to the committee on the jus-
ticiary, and not to a select committee. He made a
very violent speech against Paulding's course, and
said it was a national disgrace, and that restoration
and restitution must and should be made, and that
Walker and his men ought immediately to be sent
back to Nicaragua. A running was kept up upon
the subject pro and con, until the house adj )urned.
A vessel had arrived at New York from the
Island of Elide, in the Pacific, which is situated—
so say the owners of the cargo—where so-little rain
falls that the crust of the deposit is not penetrated,
and consequently the ammonia is not washed out.
The following is given as th 3 analysis of the Elide
guano, which, if correct, and a fair average for the
whole deposit, is enough to confirm it as a valu-
able fertiliz,r. But since farmers have been so
grossly cheated in buying stuff called guano they
have grown cautious of everything but the genuine
aiticle from the Chincha Islands :

FRANCE.

PARIS, SUNDAY.
The Emperor drove along the Boulevards this
afternoon at half-past 3 o'clock. He had an orderly
officer out of uniform by his side, and two servants
behind,. otherwise he was unaccompanied ; not even
an outrider preceded the carriage. This proof of
confidence in the Parisian population is received as
it deserves. He was saluted everywhere, and by
all cla ses, with the greatest respect.
When Pierri was taken to the guard-house, near
the spot where he was arrested, the explosion had
not yet taken place. In two minutes, however,
it reached his ear; he cried out to the guard, "Do
what you like with me ; I am content—the blow
is struck 1" He appeared certain that it had taken
effect, bat was dismayed when he heard of the
Emperor's escape.
The person named Orsini is, it seems, the same
whose extraordinary escape from the prison of
Mantua, as recounted in the papers about a year
ago, excited so much curiosity. He had been
condemned to death by the Austrian tribunals.
He had taken a very active part in the Italian
revolution in 1848.

The Paris papers are, as might be expected,
wholly occupied with the recent dastardly attempt
on the lives of the Emperor and Einprees.
The Countess de Morny has given birth to a son.
The Cour Imperiale has pronounced a judgment
annulling the decision of the Tribunal of Commerce,
and declaring Auguste Thurneyssen, of the house of
Stieglitz, not comprised in the failure of his son
Charles.

INDIA DESPATCHES.

A Supplement to the Gazette was issued on Sa-
turday, containing, with some despatches already
known, others which have not until now been
made public. We publish below those of the lat-
ter which relate to recent events ; they are the
Governor-General's General Order on the rescue of
Lucknow Garrison, General Sir Colin Campbell's
Order on the same event, a Continuation of the List
of Casualties, and Major Montgomery's Report to
Col. Cotton on the Defence of the Allyghur Dis-
trict, the latter a vivid description of an ardent
conflict. With these are also a number of de-
spatches from Delhi, many of them dated last July,
which would have been read with intense interest
had they been published within any reasonable time
of the transactions they describe, but which, in the
rapid march of events, have already passed into the
domain of history.

THE LEVIATHAN—(This Day.)

It was generally expected that operations would be
recommenced this morning for moving the Leviathan
down the ways the few feet which remain between her
present position and low-water mark. That work, how-
ever, has been deferred, as there is no immediate neces-
sity for it. The launch Trill take place on Friday the
28th or Saturday the 30'.h, so that an early day next
week will be ample time for the preliminary arrange-
ments. This morning the vessel was publicly exhibited,
and visitors flocked from all parts of London to what
has not inappropriately been termed " the dirty Nand
of Dego," to inspect the monster ship about which there
have been so many conjec'ures and so many anxieties.
An admission fee of 2s. 6d. was charged, and similar
facilities will be granted during certain hours every day
this week, to enable the public to go over the ship. As
soon as th• vessel arrives at low-water mark, a process
which will be attended with no difficulty, the work of
unpacking the cradles will commence, and then there
seems to be no doubt the spring tides will gradually
boat her.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.)

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.

(Sittings in Banco, before Lord Campbell, and Justices
Coleridge, Wightman, and Crompton.)
THZ QUEEN ♦, THZ JUSTICES OF STAFFORD.

The Solicitor-General moved for a rule calling upon
four of the justices of Stafford to show cause why an
attachment should not issue against them. This was one
of those cases that bad so oft- n been brought before the
Court, in which attempts had failed to enforce the salu-
tary provision of an act of Parliament, passed for the
regulation of mines. Some time since a writ of mandamus
was applied for against these gentlemen, who allowed
the rule to be made absolute. They afterwards made an
attempt at bearing, but had made no return. The only
difficulty about the matter was, that the four gentlemen
were served with the writ at different times. The writ
was issued in May ; but Mr. Ridgway was not served
till the Ist of June, Mr. Glover on the 3d, Mr. Manway
on the 18th August, and the other gentleman on the Ist
September. The attempted hearing took place after the
latter date. The application was to compel these gen-
tlemen to make a return.
Rule granted.

SUDDEN DEATH OF THE DUKE OF

DI VO Al SHIRE.

The Duke of Devonshire died at Hardwick Hall
last night suddenly. His Grace had been out in
his carriage during the day.
William Spencer-Cavendish, D.C.L., Duke of
Devonshire, Marquis of Hartington, Earl of Devon-
shire, Baron Cavendish of Hardwicke, Baron Clif-
ford of Lan esborough, K. G., K. S.A., and K. A. N. ;
born, May 21, 1790 ; succeeded to the title, as 6th
duke, on the demise of his father, July 29, 1811.
His Grace was nominated Ambassador-Extraordi-
nary, in 1826, from his Britannic Majesty, to
assist at the coronation:of the Emperor Nicholas of
Russia. The deceased nobleman was lord lieu-
tenant and custos rotulorum of the city of Derby.
The noble family of Cavendish, of which, in the
last century, two branches attained dukedoms, laid
the foundation of its greatness originally on the
share of abbey lands obtained at the dissolution of
the monasteries by Sir William Cavendish, who
bail been gentleman-usher to Cardinal Wolsey.
The dukedom was created in 1694.
The deceased nobleman is succeeded in the title
and estates by the Earl of Burlington.

"Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent pract'-

plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize--
ouch money ......This volume is well qualified to put an end to tlt
metrical system of treating Spermatorrhom, and to place the treat-

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JAN. 20, 1858.

A great boon has been conferred on India. A
real live lord has condescended to accept a situa-
tion below that of Governor of a Presidency.
Lord GEORGE PAGET has been appointed Inspector-
General of Cavalry; and the mere nobodies, who
bore the brunt of the fierce encounter, will have
the pleasure of finding themselves superseded at
the eleventh honi by one of the veritable aristo-
cracy—a gentleman "with a handle to his name,"
and a Guardsman to hoot, who has passed through
many brilliant "peace campaigns," and who also,
fora brief period, "smelt
,powder" in the Crimea.
We do not wish to be mistaken, or to have
it supposed that wa utter a single word against
the personal character or gallantry of the
noble lord. Far from it. He comes of
a good stock, one distinguished for thorough
English pluck ; and so far as his daring,
aye, desperate courage is concerned, „
would not hesitate to back Lord GEORGE
PAGET against any sergeant or corporal in the
array—even against those who have nobly earned
the Victoria Medal. It is not of the man, or
Lord, but of Ilse system we complain. Had he
not been the son of a Marquis who had, and we
say it with, all e;ordiality, justly acquired enormous
influence at the. Horse Guards, he never would
have been pitchforked into the situation over the
heads of many officers whose brilliant services in
India gave them, what persons uninitiated in the
mysteries of red-tapism might consider, irresistible
claims; to Anglo-Indian appointments.
Lord GEORGE PAGET was a Guardsman, and con-
sequently obtained that rapid advancement which
'The Household Brigade" have always been for-
tunate enough to obtain. He had, therefore, trump
cards in his hand, which did not fail him, even when
he sought active service as a cavalry officer. He
had not been like the lamented HAVELOCK, a sub-
altern for 23 years, but made his exchange at a
