INSURRECTION IN VIENNA.-FLIGHT OF
PRINCE RIETTERNICH.

The following, :which has arrived by telegraphic dis-
patch, appears to confirm what is below given from the
BOrsen-Halle.

VIENNA, MARCH 14.—The population has risen en
masse. In the conflicts which have taken place with the
troops, the people have been successful. Prince Metter-
nich has fled in disguise; his palace has been pillaged.
The minister of police has also fled. The emperor has
decreed the liberty of the press and the formation of a
national guard. The troops were withdrawn from the
capital, which has been left in possession of the populace.
The archdukes retire into private life. The city illumi-
nated. Public business suspended.

Letters received from Vienna, via Ostend, dated on the
evening of the 14th, state that the Arch-Duke Albert
ordered the troops to fire on a procession of students who
were about to present a petition, on the 13th instant, de-
manding the same reforms as those conceded in other
parts of Germany. Many were killed and wounded, and
amongst them many spectators. The people, irritated at
this massacre, then rose and compelled Prince Metternich
and the Arch-Duke Albert to resign. The troops were
also forced to evacuate the arsenal, which was garrisoned
by the Burgher Guard.
At the hour that the post left, Vienna was in the hands
of the citizens, on whom the task of maintaining order
had devolved.

Reports were, circulated in Vienna of serious riots in
the neighbouring country. Several factories had been
burnt, and it was even said that the palace of Schcenbrunn
was in flames.

IRELAND

The squadron so long stationed at Lisbon was off Cove
on_Thursday.

In Cork. Limerick, and indeed throughout Ireland, St.
Patrick's Day, which was to have been "a great day for
Ireland," passed off more quietly than usual. ,
The mayor of Cork refused to call a meeting on St.
Patrick's day to address the French. He did not believe
that the requisition represented the intelligence or the
property of the city.

_
At the Limerick assizes on Tuesday, Thomas Fitzge-
rald was found guilty of the wilful murder of John
M'Eniery, on the 3d October. His partner in guilt,
Renilian, was hanged last month.
A general order has been issued to the troops in all
parts of Ireland to carry their arms with them to their
several places of worship. Sunday last it was acted on,
to the annoyance of the Repealers.
A Galway paper states that the Poor Law Commis-
sioners have awarded £3OO to the widow of Captain Hil-
liard, R.N., inspecting officer of that union, who died of
fever.

The High Sheriff- of the County Roscommon has con-
vened a meeting of his Bailiwick, to petition parliament
against the continuance of the poor-law, as carried out at
present in Ireland.

Dr. Slattery, the Roman Catholic Bishop, in a letter to
Dr. M`Hale, says he has received intelligence from Rome,
that the celebrated letter from Cardinal Frasconi to the
Irish Bishops was intended to be private, and that the
Papal Government is displeased at its publication.
ST. PATRICK'S DAY IN DUBLIN. Everything was
quiet and orderly as if there were no such entities as
Repeal or Revolution. There was no guard mounting at
the Castle ; and the people were about their business as
usual, thanks to the armed demonstration. All was
quiet the whole day, and the proceedings at the several
ward meetings bore a strong impress of the influence of
the prudence and firmness of Lord Clarendon.
THE IRISH CONFEDERATION.—ThO Irish Confederates
met again on Thursday in full force at the Music hall,
Dublin. The speeches of Mr. Smith O'Brien, and' Mr.
Meagher, " of the sword," were characterized by more
than ordinary boldness ; indeed, it is said by persons
present at the meeting that the reports furnished by the
morning papers—perhaps for obvious reasons—are but a
qualified version of what fell from the lips of the several
speakers in the course of the evening. It is just probable,
however, that- the fervid eloquence of Messrs. O'Brien
and Meagher will not be lost to posterity, as Mr; Hodges
the Government reporter, was in attendance professionally
with the view of submitting t

surely two dollars tten shillings currency) would suffice in
Quebec; the additional dollar would allow ample margin
for the additional cost arising from the emigrants to
Quebec being of a poorer class than those who go to New
York, which is undoubtedly the case.
Make the tax a certain unvarying one, then the ship-
owner will know what to do. Leave it in uncertainty,
and especially give it so wide a range as from 10s. to 20s.
(bearing in mind the small amount he obtains for the car-
rying of them), and he will send his ships without them,
if he is prudent. Why should the shipowners, after tak-
ing all the precautions which the government think ne-
cessary—after providing a surgeon as well—be mulcted
in a double tax for a visitation of Providence ?

It is to be regretted that the remonstrance of Lord
Stanley and the Earl of Hardwicke, in the House of
Lords, when the Bill was in Committee, against this
excessive impost, did not induce Earl Grey to promise an
amendment of it. Perhaps, however, its operation during
the present year will suggest the necessity of such a step
to themselves.

from the Continent, are still steady, the extent of the decline
having been only * per cent. in Consols, which have now again
recovered to their former quotations of 80i to 1 for money and

LONDON CORN MARKET

.-YESTERDAY,

The supply of English Wheat, by land carriage samples from
the near counties, was very short this morning; really fine,
dry samples sold readily, at an advance of Is. per quarter; but
no improvement could be established upon secondary and in-
ferior qualities. Foreign Wheat sold at about the same rates
as last week. Barley must be quoted Is. dearer, with a better
sale. The supply of Oats, particularly from the near foreign
ports, was large, and to make any progress in sales, a reduc-
tion of 6d. to Is. per qr. had to be submitted to. Beans and
Peas very dull, with a downward tendency.

NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE CORN MARKET,

MARCH 18,

This week, we have to report very few arrivals from the
coast, and none from abroad. To-day, there was only a mo-
derate show of Farmers' Wheat, and the demand being good,
choice samples fetched about Is. per quarter more money.
Fine Foreign Wheat was enquired after, but very little offering.
Barley and Rye in limited request. Pease and Beans unsale-
able. Oats plentiful, but there being few buyers, nothing like
a chance could be effected, and prices were the turn cheaper.
Wheat, Northumberland red, 48s. to 545. ; Ditto, white, 50s. to
555. Norfolk Households, per sack, 375. to 38s.

WISBECH CORN MARKET, MARCH 18.
There has 'been a great deal of rain since our last market
day, which has prevented thrashing. Nevertheless, we have a
fair quantity of Wheat showing to-day, but generally in poor
condition. All sorts are slow sale, at a reduction of Is. per
quarter. Oats rather higher. Beans dull sale. Prices to the
grower:—Wheat, new white, 60 lbs. to 63 lbs., 475. to 50s. ;
extra, Ms. per quarter. Wheat, new red, 60 lbs. to 63 lbs., 465.
to 495.; extra, 51s. per quarter. Oats, 100. to lid. per stone.
Beans, new, 65 lbs. to 664 Ins., 345. to 375. per quarter.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, MARCH 18.
Neither in this nor the neighbouring markets has any parti-
cular change taken place during the last week ; the trade has
been quiet at, late rates. The same description is applicable to
this day's business at our Corn Exchange; the transactions in
each article being of limited extent at the prices of our last, ex-
cept as regards Beans and Indian Corn, which are both Is. per
quarter cheaper.

•
WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, MARCH 17.
This week we have good arrivals of Wheat and Barley, and
moderate of other articles. The trade is slow for Wheat at last
week's prices. Barley extremely bad to sell at a decline of Is.
per qr. Oats and Shelling without change in value. Beans
are Again is. per qr. lower.

l the authorities of the town, have

e necessity of bestowing
~ion. The principle upori

.dly increasing

hem a timely atter

which the Dock Warehouse system is conducted is
unpopular; and its extension will not be endured.
Indeed, the power which the committee is seeking
is one whose gigantic extent is scarcely compatible
with the security of the labourer from oppression, of
the tradseman from proscription,or the community
from arbitrary dictation. Persist in setting at de:-
fiance this feeling of repugnance to this system ;
place the trades and the industry of the port more
completely under the arbitrary control of a public
body; and you erect at once an object against
which, on the first occasion of popular ferment, the
passions of the mob will be directed. It is of little
import whether or not the grievances over which
the masses brood are as great as they are regarded.
The fact that they are entertained, at all, is a con-
sideration which ought to have weight. And when,
as in the case of the Dock Warehouse system, it is
notorious that the rights of large bodies of the
community to compete for their fair share of the
business of the port are circumscribed, or taken
away altogether; and an authority is set up which
is to dictate who is to work and who is to starve,
what branch of trade is to be swamped and what to
be left untouched, it is imperatively the duty of
those to whom the charge of maintaining order is
committed, to endeavour to appease the public
mind, and to remove the cause by which it is
excited.

We trust that the whole subject will now receive
the consideration which it demands ; not only from
the Dock Committee and the Council, but from the
constituencies as well. The question is no longer
one between the Dock Committee and the Ware-
house Owners. It is not, either, as to the pro-
priety or impropriety of building warehouses round
the dock quays. What the public will demand is,
that the vast Dock estate of this port shall not be
so managed as to oppress any trade or any class, or
to excite feelings dangerous to the peace of the
community. Perhaps the best course for all parties
would be to relieve the Dock Committee from their
present unpopular position and, at the same time,
to satisfy the public mind, by leasing the docks
and warehouses to individuals or companies.

LEEDS CORN MARKET, MARCH 14.
We had only a moderate supply of Frain to-day. • Wheat was
held firmly for Is. per qr. advance, with which millers have to
comply. Barley moves off at last week's rates. Oats fully as
dear. Beans rather cheaper.

•
HULL CORN MARKET, MARCH 14.
At to-day's market we had a good supply of home-grown
•Wheat, and also of new foreign ; the latter was sold for an ad-
vance npon the above prices, and 525. was paid, but the en-
hanced price checked business. Farmers' Wheat saleable at Is.
adva.nce. Barley is scarce; good:Malting Is. dearer. There
are several small cargoes of new foreign Oats on the market,
price about 235. to 245., as to quality. New foreign Beans are
offering more plentifully, and coming on a dull market must be
written •li. to 2s. dower. Good new sold at 365. An exceed:
ingly dull sale for all description of Peas. We are supplied
with tares both large and small; the fernier very fine.

BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, MARC!! 15.
During the present week, the sales reported in Wheat are
to a limited extent, holders asking more money, which millers
declined to grant. Malting Barley in more demand, and fine
qualities Is. per qr.. dearer. Beans and Oats maintained their
value.

DUBLIN CORN MARKET, MARCH 17.
There was a very small supply of all kinds of Grain at mar-
ket to-day, and in the few transactions which occurred, the
prices of Tuesday were fully maintained.

having been prevented from exporting them by the,vigi-
lance of the British cruisers, had been received some time
since, and wotlirbe included in the slave-trade papers
about to be presented to parliament.
The house went into committee of ways and means,
when Sir BENJAMIN HALL moved "That towards raslng
the supply granted to her Majesty, the respective duties
levied on proerty, profits, professions, trades, and effices
in Great Britain, be levied on property. profits, profes-
sions, trades, and offices in Ireland for a time to be
limited."
Mr. J. WILLIAMS seconded the motion, which was
also supported by Sir. J. Tyrrell, Mr. Horsman, Colonel
Muir, Mr.'Banker, Mr. Newdegate, Mr. Wakley, Mr.
Hume, and Mr. Muntz.
The hon. members opposing the motion were Sir H.
W. BARRON—who sarcastically taunted the hon. mover
that he would be handed down by future historians under
the soubriquet of " Conciliation Hall"—Mr. 'Moore, Mr.
Fagan, Mr. Hamilton, Mr. Napier, Col. Conolly, the
Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Roche, Col. Dunne,
Mr. Monseli, Mr. Reynolds, and Sir. A. Brooke. Mr. J.
Wilson endeavoured to obtain a hearing, but unsuccess-
fully, on account of the impatience for a division, which
then took place, the motion being negatived by a majority
of 80 ; the numbers 138 to 218. •
