FRANCE.

On Thursday the Government seized the journal La
Patric., and others which published the petition of M.
Emile de Girardin to the Assembly.
On Monday 134 insurgents were arrested in the Ban-
lieu. The bodies of several of the insurgents, who have
died of their wounds, have been found by the reapers in
the corn-fields in the environs of Paris.

The Paris papers announce the death of General Dam-
esme on Saturday.

GERMANY.

His Excellency the Chevalier Bunsen left London on
Friday for Dover en route to Berlin, whither he has been
called by the Prussian Government to take part in its de-
liberations on the great crisis now pending. in Germany.
It seems not unlikely that the important post of President
of the Council and Minister for Foreign Affairs to the
Provisional Executive may be offered to his Excellency.
The Austrian assembly was opened on the 22d by Arch-
duke John. The most important point in-the Archduke's
speech is the announcement that peace can only be attained
in Italy by force of arms. Lieutenant-Colonel Prokesch
has been named Minister of Foreign Affairs. The minis-
try and the regent have written to Inuspruck, to request
the Emperor to return to Vienna.
A considerable force of the Austrian army, amounting
to about 20,000 men, made a sortie from Verona on the
18th. The advanced guard, consisting of 3600 men, al-
lowed itself to be surrounded by two Piedmontese brigades,
and was obliged to lay dOwn its arms. A general engage-
ment then ensued, in which a body of 17,000 Austrians
were defeated at all points. Another sortie wus made
from Mantua by 7000 Austrians, who were repulsed by a
body of 4000 troops, composed of Romans, Tuscans, and
Neapolitans.

percro;.--. j received, and it was probably from a
or this that he gave them two hours to decide
.. the proposition which he had made to them. At the
end that period the terms were, I suppose, accepted,
and to-day it was generally reported and believed in Wa-
terford that lie had betaken himself to the hills, with
100,000 followers. The departure of reinforcements for
Carrick-on-Suir was taken to be a confirmation of this
rumour, and it was almost amusing to see the solemn ea-
gerness-with which this foolish fabrication was communi-
cated and rereived by the gossips and idlers of this city.
" Waterford itself remains undisturbed. The clubs
met to-night in unusual force, but, after showing the
same restless and uneasy spirit, they dispersed quietly.
For the military defence of this city the most ample pro-
vision has been made. The steadier in the harbour is
placed so that its guns command the principal street.
Cannon will be posted so as to sweep the quays. an en-
campment is to be formed on the heights above the bridge,
and the barracks, which are also situated above the town,
complete a strong chain of fortifications against which
even the drilling and training of the clubs must prove
powerless. •
" While the timid are flying from the threatened dan-
ger, the great landowners in this neighbourhood are re-
turning to their estates, and preparing to lend their aid in
defending the Crown and Government of the empire. The
Earl of Bessborough has set an example in this respect
worthy of imitation. The military force at Pilltown is
encamped within his grounds, and Bessborough-house
serves as an ammunition store, while the noble earl him-
self is actively engaged in providing for the comfort of the
troops and the safety of the town of Carrick. The Mar-
quis of Waterford is also expected to visit his estates here
immediately, and, it is said, intends to raise his tenantry
for the defence of the country. In such a cause as the
present, when Ireland is threatened with a servile as well
as a civil war, it is not only for the honour but for the in-
terest of the great landowners to take their share in the
struggle." .

CORN EXCHANGE. .117 Ly 28.
Our Foreign imports since last Monday are chiefly about 0000
quarters Indian Corn, the greater part from America, a cargo
of Egyptian Beans, and 400 quarters Wheat from Hamburg ;
no fresh supplies are reported from Canada, and the receipts
Coastwise and from Ireland are trivial. The duty on Wheat is
this week reduced to 9s. per quarter, and on Flour to ss. sd.
per barrel, with the prospect of shortly going still lower. On
Wednesday we had a continuous rain for several hours, and
having advices of an upward tendency from many other mar-
kets, the trade here, was active for Wheat and Flour, at a
further improvement on Tuesday's currency, which Indian
Corn, upon a moderate demand, about supported. Yesterday
alarming reports were circulated of insurrectionary movements
in the South of Ireland, and though these were then not credited
in their extent, and are since found to be untrue, the effect for
the time was to paralyze business in all its branches, the holders
of Irish orders refraining almost entirely from purchasing, and
the speculative disposition for Wheat and Flour, previously ap-
parent, was again quite suspended. The weather having been
fair yesterday, and to-day being exceedingly tine, with a settled
aspect, the demand for Wheat, at our Corn Exchange this
morning, was rather languid, and 2d. per 70Ib. advance, which
was previously acquired, was not fully sustained ; the trade for
all descriptions of this Grain closing at little more titan Id.
over the annexed rates of Tuesday. English and Irish Flour
was in moderate request at an amendment of Is. per sack, and
barrel Flour of good quality fully maintained our last quota-
tions. Barley and Malt, even upon a limited scale, were held
steadily at late prices. English Beans, being scarce, were the
turn dearer, and Egyptians realised an improvement of Is. -per
quarter. Pease, also, were held on somewhat higher terms.
Oats advanced Id. per 451 b.. and Oatmeal supported its fortner
value. With a good demand for Indian Corn, middling quali-
ties of white realised an advance of Is., and all other kinds the
currency of Tuesday, Corn Meal unvaried.

WAKEFIELD CATTLE MARKET, JULY 26.

:XCHANGE. JULY 28,

Our Foreign imports since last Monday are chiefly about 9000
quarters Indian Corn, the greater part from America, a cargo
of Egyptian Beans, and 400 quarters Wheat from Hamburg ;
no fresh supplies are reported from Canada. and the receipts
Coastwise and from Ireland are trivial. The duty on Wheat is
this week reduced to 9s. per quarter, and on Flour to ss. 5(1.
per barrel, with the prospect of shortly going still lower. On
Wednesday we had a continuous rain for several hours, and
having advices of an upward tendency from many other mar-

fair yesterday, and to-day being exceedingly fine, with a settled
aspect, the demand for Wheat, at our Corn Exchange this
morning, was rather languid, and 2d. per 701 b. advance, which

SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, JULY 26.
We had a smaller supply of both Beasts and Sheep to-day,
which, owing to the colder state of the weather were all bought
up at prices about the same as this day se'nuight. Butchers
say this day's market is rather dearer, but the dealers are of a
different opinion, stating that the quality taken into considera-
tion prices are about the same as last week, we must therefore
quote them as for Beef, ad to 6d., and for Mutton and Lambs,
6d. to WI. Veal 6d. per lb. Number of Beasts, 780 ; and

The Rajah
Bhawalpore also had rendered important

given a eFieck to a party of the enemy sent against it.
Subseo;eently,. a body of lately enlisted Patans, whom
Lie'",,terant Edwardes had detached to attack one of the
petty chiefs, ably performed that service, taking the
enemy's only gun, and putting the hostile body to flight
with some loss. After this Lieutenant Edwardes joined
Colonel Cortlandt, commanding in a contiguous district
of the Dera, and who had also been able to enlist a good
number of Patans in his corps. A second engagement
took place on the same day (20th May), this move-
ment was effected, and its success, on our part, was deci-
sive. The enemy suffered great slaughter, with the loss
of two guns and five swivel pieces ; their chief was killed,
and one of second note taken prisoner. The corps under
the British officers now hold possession of the forts of
the Dera and the line of the Indus. The enemy's force
in the field at present consists of about 3000 men and
eight guns ; while that of Edwardes and Cortlandt com-
prise three mixed Sikh regiments, 1000 Irregular Horse,
eight guns, and 20 swivel pieces. Their levies are said to
have fought bravely, to be under good control, and show
no disposition to fraternize with the rebels. A small body
of Beloochees, under one of their chiefs, had joined the
English standard and done excellent service.

There is decidedly a better feeling existing in our market for
Foreign Wool, but, as we shall receive large supplies from all
parts of the world, there cannot for some time be much ad-
vance in price. There are to be some public sales here on the
10th and 11th of August, of about 1000 hales of fine Colonial
and 400 bales Capes, as well as some low Wools. In Scotch
business is limited, the selection at present being indifferent;
but large quantities are daily expected.

REMEDIAL SUGGESTION FOR IRELAND.

But the measure which, in our judgment, is of all others
required for the relief of Ireland, is a measure for EFFECT-
ING TIIE SALE OF INCIIMBERED ESTATES. There is a
bill now before Parliament, which is, to some degree, con-
nected with this subject. It originated last year in the
House of Lords, and is now once more before the Com-
mons. _ ' _

This bill as it originated in the Lords (what alterations
it may receive in the Commons we know not), is calcu-
lated to be of great service; it, however, falls fax short of
what is required. The great object to be attained, as we
have more than once intimated in this article, is that the
proprietors of the soil shall have the full and entire exer-
cise of every legal right of ownership ; that they shall be,
in the fullest sense of the word, independent; that they
shall not continue, as they now are, mere nominal posses-
sors of large estates, without interest in them, or control
over them ; that the improvement of the land shall not be
impeded ; that the advancement of the tenantry shall no
longer be retarded, by the condition of the owners of the
soil. The greater number of the landed gentry of Ireland
are now so heavily encumbered, that it is quite impossible

quis of Lansdowne assured the right rev. prelate that,o,
Government would not refuse their assent to the ia",j,

at the same time, confessed that it was very undesifs yid
