Archduke Louis, the patron of the stand-still system, is,
however, about to be forced to resign his share in the
public business. The news from Italy, Hungary, Croatia,
Galicia, Bohemia—in short, from all parts of the empire
—make -the Austrian statesmen almost frantic. The
movements among the labouring-classes acquire daily a
more threatening character. A repetition of the bloody
drama of 1846 is preparing in Galicia. A deputation has
been sent to the Emperor from that province, to inquire
whether he should like to Qine nll the noblemen's thrnata

According to the last advices from Vienna it appears
that the proclamation of Sardinia had at that time been
made known. Nevertheless, although volunteers in large
numbers were being enrolled to join the army in Italy, it
was believed that the cabinet would pursue a temperate

by a convention with Lombardy, in which that country

should agree to take her share of the public debt, and at

of commerce.

PRUSSIA AND THE GERMAN MOVEMENT,

We have received papers from Berlin of the sth, Ham-
burgh the 4th, Cologne the 6th, from Heidelberg of the
sth, and from Vienna of the Ist of this month :

A letter from Schildberg, in Posen, in the Breslauer
Zeitung, gives evidence of the progress of anarchy in the
Grand Duchy. The letter is dated the 30th ult. On that
night and preceding nights the sky was reddened by the
glare of conflagrations. Country seats and castles were
burned down by the rioters who pretend to regenerate
Poland. The town itself is filled with fugitive gentry,
many of whom had saved nothing beyond their lives.
Couriers had been sent to Breslau, Mielitsch, and War-
tenberg to call for military assistance, for an attack on the
town of Schildberg was daily expected. The bands of
sithemen are still increasing. Recruiting parties are
everywhere busy enlisting peasants, to whom they offer a
small bounty, and, probably, a brilliant prospect of
plunder.

Leiters from Stralsund of the Ist, in the Cologne Ga-
zette, state that the port of that town is being put in a
state of defence, to prevent a coup de main of the Danes.
Danholm, too, a small island near the entrance of the har-

would not at all surprise us if both these classes

their strength in an imperative demand for such a

berths, and, on their arrival in Liverpool, they may proceed on
board, and save the expense of lodgings. In addition to the
above, a number of Ships are despatched with emigrants by the

CHARLES WILLMER'S EUROPEAN MAIL,
TO WHICH THE

LIVERPOOL AND MANCHESTER PRICE CURRENT

IS NOW INCORPORATED,
IS PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY MORNING,

THE OFFICE, 19, SOUTH JOHN-STREET, LIVERPOOL.
VACH Number contains full and/authentic Reports
JU of the Liverpool, London, and I!nchester Markets, in-
c►uding-Corn, Cotton, and Shares, to' the close of business on
Friday; a correct Price Current Liverpool and London, in
which will be found the quot ns for every Article of Mer-
chandise; the Wakefield Cor Market of Friday; the State of
Trade in Manchester an e Manufacturing Districts ; the
particulars of the Impo and Exports to and from Liverpool ;
the latest Market Re s from Havre? Antwep, Amsterdam,
St. Petersburgh, the nited States, India, and China ; a List of
Bankrupts; a cor ct and comprehensive Shipping List; the
Premiums of In ranee at Liverpool ; and the Prices of British
Funds, togethe with a digest of the proceedings in Parliament,
a Summary of Foreign Intelligence, and an Epitome of General
News.

As a medium for giving publicity to Advertisements generally,
and Shipping and Mercantile Announcements in particular, it
is not surpassed by any Journal extant, whilst the charges are
fixed at slow rate. Independent of a wide circulation in Li-
verpool and Manchester, and throughout Greg Britain and
Ireland, it commands an extensive patronage in the United
States and the British Colonies—an advantage to Advertisers
not possessed by any other local Paper.
The EUROPEAN MAIL AND LIVERPOOL AND
MANCHESTER PRICE CURRENT is peculiarly adapted
for Merchants to transmit to their Correspondents in the United
States and the British Colonies, containing, as it does, such a
mass of valuable commercial information, and being published
on the day on which the American Mails are now despatched.
Parties desirous of sending papers to their friends abroad,
can have them forwarded direct from the Office, 19, SOUTH
JOHN-STREET, LIVERPOOL, and thus relieve themselves
from considerable trouble. The Annual Subscription is One
Guinea, payable in advance.
Orders and Communications addressed to the Publisher, Mr.

Mr. WILLIAM JOHNSTON? of Kirkhill, said,—l rise to ask
you to join me in a very pleasing duty, that of returning thanks
to the Directors for their valuable services during the past
year. I feel very sure that, when we think of the great extra
labour they have in perfecting the matter of the London agency
as well as I
framing the Bill now before Parliament, which
trust will soon be the law of the land ; and, above all, when we
think of the great extra services necessary to transact such o
large amount of business, now in connection with the institu-
tion, we must be at once prepared to give them our warm and
hearty thanks. (Applause.)
Mr. WILLIAM CHURCH, jun., of Glasgow, seconded the mo-
tion, which was carried amidst acclamation. •
Mr. C. J. KERR, banker, said,--I am sure the Meeting will
join with equal cordiality in tendering a similar compliment to
the Boards at Glasgow and Manchester. (Applause.).
A vote of thanks was also given to the Auditors and Trustees
and to the Office bearers of the Society.

BATHS AND WASHHOUSES

We quote the following paragraph from a contemporary
of Saturday :
"The Wash-houses for the working classes is another bubble
—an expensive one for the corporation. That, too, has burst.
It does not answer the object of its patrons. Those who go to
these places to wash and be washed, are not those who, for
sanatory purposes, ought to wash and be washed. It is all
claptrap, humbug, and delusion."

It is easy to Make random assertions like these, but like
fancy that little regard will be paid to them. Every pre-
caution is taken to- prevent any persons using the wash-
houses of the corporation, except those who would lite-
rally have to wallow in filth without them. No one is
permitted to wash for another— not even for a sick neigh-
bour without a proper certificate—and the mere fact that
during the month ending the 23d ultimo, no fewer than
367 G washing-tubs were used at the establishment in Paul-
street, proves the wide spread benefits conferred by these
institutions. That their utility is also increasing in the
estimation of the public is abundantly evidenced by the
tact that the receipts for the past week are double those
of the corresponding week of last year. Whilst we are
upon the subject we may as well give the last monthly
report of the Paul-street Baths and Wash-houses. It
will be seen that th- persons allowed to bathe gratuitously
exceeded in number those who were able to pay the usual
small charge for the accommodation
