il is said, recovered some of his lost popularity by
a speech which he read from the tribune, in which
he announced himself candidate for the Pes-
dency. The speech was well composed Itsau-
| thorship is yariousy ascrlbed to Odlon Barot,
! Viellard, and others. The last list OF candidates
contains the names of Louis Napoleon, Cavaiglac,
I.amartine Ledru RolIin, Bugeaud, and Chantar-
nier. NlM. Theirs and Mole, as well as RasEail,
are said TO withdraw. Gen. CHANG4RHIER viii

the Legltimists and of the old Conservative patty.
NJ GuIzoT is favorable, SAYS the Prose-, to he
election of Louis Napoleon, Among oher strange
| probabilities may be mentioned that Of M. Guizot
icing returned representative for the departmental
Caivados, where the election will take Place OH The
! 18th instant. Louis Napoleon has sail 81 that he
will never form an alliance with NJ. rhirs" This
declaration will not conflict with his pacing that
individual in power should he have III. chance Of
doing so. .. .
| Public attention in France is, for the moment al
least. partially attracted from the great question Of
the Presidency by the awful exposition VI the fnan
cal condition OF the country, developed before the
Assembly on Monday, by the Minister Of Finance,
in the budget for tie current year. The eXpendl-
ture for lS4S will not be less than seven.y-lour
millions sterling; and that for lS49 much below
one hundred millions sterling How this enormous
"A
full deficit there will undoubtedly be, which can
only be covered by lean, and how that is to be
contracted in the present state of public credit it is
difficult to imagine.
No additional news of importance from ITALY.
Milan and Modena represented as being in
state of insurrecton, but not much is known about
either. Nothing is heard of the movements or the
intentions of CHARLES ALBERT, or of the sayings
aud doings of his Holiness PRS TX. Radetzky's
army is represented as fast dwindling away by de-
serton; nineteen hundred Hangarians left Milan
in body, and had taken the direction of either
Piedmont or Switzerland. A more welcome piece
OF intelligence is, that the differences between Ma
pies and Sicily are in fair way of settlement.
The constitution of 1912 is to be guaranteed to
Sicily, under one of the sons of the King OF
Naples.
But little is known of the real aate of things at
Vienna. Il seems. however, very probable that at
the last received dates no battle hal taken Place in
the neighborhood nor had the city been lombard
ed, though closely beleagered on al sides BY the
imperial troops under Windischgratz and Jellchch.
The Viennese are much encouraged in theirresst-
ance by the promise of assistance from Hungary.
kossnth, with powerful army, is near Prsburg.
The fate of Vienna depends upon him, and proba-
bly, nothing but rapid and decisive movement on
his part can save that city from absolute destruction
by fire and sword
NOVEMBER 3.-We have at last news from Wen
ma 10 the evening of the 2sh. The bombgdment
OF the city commenced on tie morning OF hat day.
Different parts of the suburbs had been in flames.
The diplomatic corps had removed to Olmuz. The
Hungarian army, fifty thousand strong, lad not
crossed the frontier the 9th. The Frankfort
Parliament has declined to interfere direct in the
affairs of Vienna. Thus deserted by the Central
Government, and unsupported by their Hungarian
allies, the Niennese have no choice left between
| submitting 10 their weak-m;nded EmpeDr, or TO
the cannon balls and sabres of his besieGng mer-
cenares. The accusation against the Ministers Of
the Archduke JOIN is, that they are the supporters
OF order, and do not pay sufficient attention to the
interests Of liberty; whereas they ough 10 lie the
advocates of order aud liberty comhired, for in
! Germany the former cannot long exist without the
latter. Non-interveRdon, so far as respects any
part OF Germany represented al Frankfort. cannot
he the duty of the Central Government. I.ais de-
cIslons al Frankfort seem TO cut The Austrian en-
pre in two, incorporating German Austria into
Germany, and leaving the Austria Of the Seavo-
mans, the Magyars, and the Italians TO organize
themselves as they please. This view was affirm
ed IN the Frankfort Parliament by vote Of 3ls Ia
90. That decision is bold, but its expedency and
~ SoiiNItlSSs appear very lOuDuuL. IL - wei IL
II can be enforced without calling in artillery to the
aid OF words. We are afraid that GermQq Austria
will soon be compelled to invoke the id of all
Germany to emancipate it from the chain, about 10
be imposed upon ii by Croatian sabres ind Scla-
vonic cannon. The work has now begun at
Vienna.
Nothing from Prussia, excepting accounts OF great
excitement in Silesia and some other provices in
consequence Of the events at Vienna.
The King of DENMARK has opened the Diet of
that kingdom in person, and addressed, lie says,
for the first time the elected representatives Of the
Danish people" The draught Of the law Of the
new constitution has been submitted to III. Diet
The King was received with much enthusiasm both
by the Diet and the people.
There is nothing new from FRANCE. The ex-
element on the subject of the Presidency continues
to increase. Marshal BUGEAuD is fairly bee the
people as the candidate of the Oreanist parry and
LEDRu RoLLrS as that of the Red Republicans and
Communists.
Nothing of importance from any other part Of
Europe.
