THE NATIONAL ERA: WASHINGTON, D. CT JANUARY ~ 1859

The Revolution IN Se,yia.-T The London
Morning Star of the 4th inst says:
We arc able TO give few more details con-
nected with the Servia1 revolution, details
which confirm our statement of yesterday, that
the revolution was effected by an armed popula-
tion. his armed movement must have been the
result OF design and prea arrangement and it was
so patriotic and overpowering as to have been
irresistible. The people even broke down the
bridges and tore up the roads, so as to prevent
the march of the regular forces that might have
been employed against them.
The most remarkable characteristic of the
revolution is that, amid so many demonstrations
OF the employment of force not a drop of blood
was shed Everything the people wanted was
gained without fighting, and one cannot but i'm
agine that such success may be an incentive
TO revolutionary parties in other parts of Europe.
Belgrade just now presents strange appear
ance, the people moving through the streets re-
loiclng in what they have effected, while the
Turkish fort, bristling with loaded cannon and
muSkets, overlooks their triumph with naughty
menace, as if only awaiting the word of ordering
to fire upon the town. The Servans are not,
however, likely to attack the fort, simply for the
sake of getting hold of fugitive Prince who re-
mains within its walls and, as we have already
seen, the Turkish Government has no DISPOSE
ton to wage war against the Servians.
=" The late reports of the Governor General,
that Algeria might be looked upon as finally
subdued had really found belief-a result to
which the eminent facility with which the late
kabyliam campaign was executed especially
contributed. The cutlery, as usual, is that Mo
rocco is at the bottom of this new movement
which means that the annexation of Morocco,
or of part ofit to Algeria is at the bottom of
the heart of the French
Haty.-Ihrin, Dec. 3l.-Authentic accounts
of slight disturbances, and manifestations of
popular feeling, have also reached me from
Milan. On Sunday last some alarm was ex-
cited by collision between Austrian soldiers
and Milanese of the lower orders, arising from
a dispute about smoking. Nobody was hurt,
and the thing was soon over. But one day or
other it is to be feared, such paltry scuffes may
lead to more serious consequences. 1t would
seem that the Austrian troops have orders to
be very forbearing and slow to wrath.
Turin, Jan. 2-LetterS from Milan, received
here, confirm the previous statements that great
agitation is reigning there, and daily alterca-
tions and quarrels take place between the ltal-
ians and Austrians.
State Of Affairs an Lonabardy, A letter
dated Turin, December 3lst, to the London
Times, says:
have received this morning, from a sure
source, accounts from Lombardy up to a toler-
ably recent date, Oh which / can rely. The
most important piece of intelligence they COM
prise is the formation of commissions, military
and civil, 1.-THE latter element, which is of the
police, predominating, for the prompt and sum-
mary judgment, without regard to the ordinary
forms of procedure, of possible rioters, insur-
gents, and seditious persons. The fact of the
formation of these commissions does not, as
I'LL. 1t -, L. - =
secret by the Austrian Government, and l am
therefore unable to give You any more minute
details than the preceding"
ROme.-A Northumberland letter in the
Jeaoish Chronicle makes it apparent not only
that the Pope is incensed against the movers
in the Mortara case, and unlikely to liberate the
Jewish child he kidnapped, but that the Papal
Government has made it the occasion of fur
ther ROmish persecution of the Jews The let
ter states that this is not an open movement,
but that ii is an indirect commencement of a
very severe system of persecution. 1t instances,
as examples, the recent and unexpected search
of Jewish houses for Christian servants, and
the further fact, that a young Israelite, who had
passed his examination and taken his diploma
as physician, was refused license to practice,
and even permission to act in the capacity of
assistant in druggists shop, simply on ac-
count of his religion. Other cases of persecu-
ton are instanced and the tenor of the letter,
generally, is to the effect that the jew is perse-
cuted in the Papal States, and at the Pope's in
stance, simply because he is a Jew.
Austria Conspiracy IN Crdcor.- F9enza,
Dec 3l.-During the last two or three DAYS, it
has been reported in this city that most formi-
dable conspiracy has been discovered in Cracow.
As is very frequently the case in this part of
the world a mountain has been made of a mole
hill, for person who resides in Cracow states
that thirteen persons who were strongly suspect-
ed of plotting against the Stale were arrested
a few days ago. The only individuals of note
among them are priest and an officer who
was pensioned some time ago. 1t is here as.
serted that some of the persons arrested are
Russian agents, and it is not unlikely that snch
is the case. 1t was from the Prussi:,h province of
Posen that the Imperial authorities got the first
hint that mischief was plotting at Cracow. AS
measure of precautioh the troops were KEEP;
in their barracks at Cracow 70, two or three
DAYS,
Spah.-Madrid, Jan. 2.-Government has
declared to the Chamber of Deputies its inten-
ton to protest against the offensive hypothesis
of Mr.. Buchanan, President Of the United
States, that Spain will ever sell Cuba DOG
Olozaga moved resolution q adherence to
this declaration &C Government, which was
unanimously approved.
The Chamber of Deputies have rejected
Progressista amendment to the bill for Lowing
taxes, by l62 votes to IL.
The sem-oficial Corresp3s,sse1,ssq Aiutogrota
states that tao spanish Government has been
informed officially that complete satisfaction
will be granted to Spain for the exact;pns of
which the Spaniards had been the victims at
Iampico; IL oYnioTmi.y with the demands of
the authorities Of Cnha
AlgeriG.-The insunection which has again
broken out among the tribes in the interior of
Algeria is more serious than was at first thought.
News is is continually received by telegraph,
but the Government, which has the monopoly &C
the wires, keeps it strictly secret which only
deepens the g!90a,nayy feeling.
