      Fra.Nce. Lord Palmersfon's Speech At Tiv...

      FRA . NCE . Lord Palmersfon ' s speech at Tiverton is quoted at fulUength by several of the papers . It seems to please the French liberals better than the English ; but is the object of violent attacks on the part of some organs of the conservative press , particularly the Assemblee Rationale . ' This paper , which one should think from the circumstance of its being conducted by M . Gu ' rzot , would be better informed , makes the most ludicrous blunders about English administration . It affirms seriously that upon tbe least disturbance all England is put under martial Jaw ,- and that upon the famous Cbauist demonstra-Hon in 1848 , tou $ lespouvoirs were confided to the Duke of Wellington .

      M . Weiss , director of police at Vienna , holds frequent conferences with M . Carlier on the French-German plot , which is still investigating , and gives occasion for fresh arrests daily . The inspectors of gendarmerie in the departments , it appears , have issued instructions to the brigadiers of these corps to draw up a list of the most ener . getic republicans , and to make notes upon the opinions and characters of the mayors . The molestations to which private seciety is subjected ia the departments , by the impertinence of

      the police , are all but incredible . M . Bagard , a councillor-general and wealthy proprietor of tbe Tonne , writes to the' Siecle' that as he was dining with nine friends at Jauy , on the 25 th nit ., after a shooting party , and not so much as dreaming of politics , a couple of gendarmes walked in , and , declaring that all parties { reunions ) were prohibited , called on them in tbe name of the law , which they were accused of violating , to give Up their names , addresses , and so forth , and to disperse . Proceedings of this sort are of daily occurrence .

      The following is tbe latest item of press persecution intelligence : — « M . Bareete , the responsible editor of the ' Republique , has been summoned to appear on tbe 14 th inst . before the Court of Assize to take bis trial , on a charge of publishing a letter from a subscriber containing false assertions against the government . ' There is no idea of asking the editor for the same of his correspendent , nor would tbe readiness of the latter to avow himself , and take the consequences of his act , save M . Bareste from the gaol to Which , as a matter of conrsp , he is doomed .

      The correspondent of the 'Daily News ' says he las serious reasons to believe that tbe government intend to impeach those members of tbe Mountain who subscribed to the Mazzini loan , and thus cut down , if possible , the constitutional majority against revision , by purging the Assembly of those members , and either leaving them in abeyance or replacing them by revisionists , elected under the law of May . On the 21 st of August tbe National ' published in its columns a letter from M . Scboelcber ' to the Citizen Mazzini , president of the National Italian Committee , ' announcing that he , together with several of his colleagues of the Mountain , subscribed to the loan opened in favour of the cause

      advocated by the ex-triumvir of the Roman Republic . Besides M . Scboelcher ' s , forty-six other names of members of the Mountain figure as subscribers to this loan . Here , then , the lawyers of the govern , tnent of Louis Napoleon conceive that they can lay their fingers upon impeachable matter ; and the train of reasoning by wbich they arrive at this conelusion is remarkable . What is the object , say they , of the National Italian Loan ? The sums subscribed will be spent in rebellion , massacre , pillage , fire , and the destruction of the Pope ' s sovereign authority . Fomented by such contributions , on some day not far distant , the Roman demagogy will break out in insurrection ; they will find in face of them that French army which restored the sovereign pontiff , and which will once more rally round the chair of St . Peter . But tbe cause of religion will not

      triumph without a bloody straggle , in wbich the brave soldiers of the French Republic will many of them be shot down by balls bought with the gold of the Mazzini loan , contributed by French representatives . Who doubts the right of arraigning as conspirators representatives who subscribe to arm a plot , which strikes by rebound against the government of their country ? Who questions tbe justice of accusing as traitors those who contribute the pay which they receive from the French treasury to procure the destruction of French armies ? The government puts these questions through its organ—the Patrle , ' and expects them no doubt to be answered in the affirmative by public opinion and by the parliamentary majority . The sympton is a grave one , and g ives additional countenance to the report that such a purge of the assembly ia contemplated .

      M . Leon Faucherbas instructed the authorities to prosecute a letter written by M . Langlois , ex-director of the lottery , to the ' Siecle' containing charges against M . Clement Hfiyre , secretary of the Prefect of Police . The editor of the ' Presse' has been acquitted from his sentence of imprisonment and fine for publishing the letter of Yictor Hugo , on appeal to the Superior Court . Let us hope that this is the beginning of better times for the French newspapers . A German who had long worked as a journeyman tailor in Paris felt such a horror at tbe idea of presenting himself to tbe Prefect oi Police for a permission to remain , that none of his friends could persuade him to conform to the order . He became more melancholy from day to day , and at length committed suicide with charcoal ; savings amounting to £ 140 were found in his room .

      An instance of the oppression suffered by individuals in consequence of the indiscriminate arrests that were made of foreigners , accused of being implicated in the alleged plot , is afforded by a letter from M . F . Kellerhovcn , an artist residing at No . 37 , Rue de la Pcpiniere . This gentleman , now set at liberty , and admitted to be wholly unconnected with politics in any way , was arrested , and detained twenty-three days in prison , on account of some letters received by one of his workmen without his knowledge .

      ITALY . Private accounts from Italy contain full confirmation of the total failure of the officially got lip rejoicings to welcome tbe Emperor . In every one of the larger cities through which the Emperor passed , the severest orders were issued to the inhabitants to decorate their houses during the day , and to illuminate them at night . Fear of imprisonment , or perhaps still worse , compelled the people to do what they were ordered , and lights in the windows , and green boughs and flags on the houses , were not wanting ; but in every town , or even village , the rejoicings went no further . Police representations of exaggerated loyalty were of course not wanting , but in Milan the majority of the population left tbe tonn for tbe whole time the Emperor

      was present , leaving to their servants the ungracious task of illuminating to welcome a despised and hated monarch . Such conduct will not he allowed to pass unpunished by tbe police . In Verona a tombola was arranged by the police , for which free tickets were distributed , but , notwithstanding , the theatre remained half empty , a fact which sneaks volumes when the love of gambling of the peasants in Italv is taken into consideration , LOMBARDY . —The 'Opinione' of Turin , in giving an account of tbe various festivities with which the Emperor has been greeted ia his progress through Loiabardy , states that , on the 18 : b ult ., a master bricklayer , named Ogionni , who bad contracted for the illuminations with the municipality of Monza , was stilettoed in that town , and died a few hours afterwards .

      AUSTRIA . Advices from Vienna state that the head of the Vienna police , Ritter Weiss , is to be placed at the head of the central federal police of Germany , which th ? Diet at Frankfort has resolved on organising . This person has played a most notorious pait in the persecutions which have been instiiuted in the metropolis since the October revolution . At the head of the worst secret police in Europe , with the exception of the Prussian , he seems really to have deserved his post . He is , without exception , the worst of the bad . His private character is siained hy acts which , in other countries , where laws exist and are respected , would have been punished by lengthened imprisonments . It is not very long since be

      was the subject of a criminal investigation , for having feloniously attacked a young woman , an aecua & on which is said to have b * a quashed by money He « h ated by bis inferiors , who certainly cannot be considered men of character , but who are unpossessed of ^ sufficient honest feeling to be shocked at the atrocious manner in which he instructs them to proceed . In his former davs he has been known to denounce individuals for acts or words pronounced by them while ha was their guest , and be is not ashamed to boa . tof Ms success or to instruct his inferiors to follow his example . His official carcer , has been one series of failures ! The accusations wbich he and bis tools have furnished to the jfccarts-martial , and their evidence thereon have been ia nine cases out o ! ten proved

      to be lies ; iunoceut men . have been seized by his mistakes and made to suffer punishment for offences the real authors of which all bis cunning and trickery could not discover . Any . person connected with the court or government need but name an obnoxious individual , and Chevalier Weiss pounced upon him and secured him as safely as tettm de cachet formerly secured individuals in tbe Bastile . Fifty thousand political offenders , . the majority named by Chevalier Weiss , fill the penal companies of the Austrian army . The prisons were full of his

      victims , and under tbe present anarchical maladministration of wbat is called justice hundreds of innocent men wait in crowded cells , month after month , until it shall please the authorities and Chevalier Weiss to place them at the bar of some tribunal or other . Such is the individual who , it is reported , is to undertake the administran ' on of tbe police affairs of the confederation . If the report be true , tbe imprisonment and trials of 1830 will be nothing to those which will ensue upon his taking office . No one will be safe .

      A correspondent from Vienna slates : — 'The police force of London bears a high character for probity and honesty . Since I have been in Vienna I have heard it very strongly asserted that individuals connected with it have made themselves subservient to the purposes of the Austrian government , in a way that reflects discredit upon the whole . Your readers may perhaps recollect , tbat not long ago a case of forgery of Austrian brnk notes was beard at the Mansion-house Of . Guildhall police-court , and that statements were made during its progress to the effect that a systematic forgery of Austrian paper-money was in operation in England . The detective police who were employed upon the case in question are understood to be still engaged in the prosecution of inquiries at the instance of the Austrian government . Their

      unsuccessful efforts have hitherto -been well rewarded , and promises of further reward have not been lavished without a purpose , for nothing is easier to detective constables than , while hunting after banknote presses , to hunt up the dwellings of Austrian refugees and to report their proceedings to the Austrian embassy . In plain words , the police of England are accused here of taking Austrian money to be spies on political refugees , upon pretence Of searching after forgers . I do not make the assertion myself ; but so long as the present character of tbe English police force is allowed to exist by parliament , I must maintain that they ought not to be allowed to be at tbe beck and Call of foreign despotic governments upon any pretence whatever . I may also mention that several of these said refugees are nothing better than police spies /

      We learn from Vienna that the appointment of Prince Windiscbgratz to tbe governor-generalnhip of Bohemia , vacant by the removal to Hungary of Archduke Albrecbt , appears to have been already made , though it ia not yet officially announced . Tbe military journal , which is generally well informed , states that tbe appointment was signed by the Emperor on the 18 th nit . Soldiers administer the government in every one of the provinces * of the

      empire for example . Archduke Atbrrcht in Hungary , Radetsky and Giulay in Italy , Khevenhuller in Gallicia , Jellachich in Croatia , Windiscbgratz in Bohemia , Welden in Upper and Lower Austria—all men whose characters and antecedents render them incapable of introducing or carrying out any other system of government than that of military rule , How such men are to introduce the promised con stitution is a riddle , only to be solved by tbe supposition that it will prove a corporal ' s cane .

      GERMANY . KOSSUTH AND HIS COMPANIONS HUNG IN EFFIGY . Simultaneous almost with tbe arrival of Kossuth and his companions on English soil , tbe Austrian government displays at Pesth , in the most glaring colours , the fate which English sympathy , pertinacious and prompt , and Turkish good faith , have succeeded in saving them from . On tbe morning of the 22 nd ult . the names and fffigies of the Hungarian fugitives were publicly executed by banging them in the market-place of Pesth , with all the dreadful solemnities wbich accompany the execution of a human being . Disappointed in their passionate desire to wreak the most frightful vengeance on the

      bead of Kossuth and his friends , the Austrian go . vernment has hung them in effigy . The ' Mirror ' of Pesth reports the fact in the simple terms which a state of siege permits , Tbe military were drawn out and formed into a square , within which there appeared the usual gallows . The officer in command read the sentence of tbe court-martial , according to which the following persons were sentenced to death in effigy , having been tried in conlumacion ( Anglice , while fugitives from justice ) , and found guilty of high treason . The sentence having been read , the hangman was ordered to do his duty , which he did by banging up a string of black boards , on which the names of tbe sentenced criminals were written .

      as follows : —Paul Almasy , Julius G . Andrasy , J . Balogh de Galantha , Count Casimer Batthyanyi , Eugene Beothy , Ludwig Cseb ( Csernatoni ) , Stephen Gorove , Richard Guyon , Esq ., Paul Hajnik , Francis Hazmann , Michael Horwath , Daniel Iranyi , Baron N . Josika , George Kmethy , Karl Kornis , Lu < 3 wlg Kossuth , Johann Ludwig , Ladislaus Madarass , Baron Y . Najtbenyi , Moritz Merie , Lazar Messaros , Jos . Orosshegyi , Moritz Perczel , Nicolana Peiczel , Nicolaus Peky , Johann Rakoczy , Julius Sarosy , Anton Somogyi , Baron L . Splenyi , Baron E . M . Stein , Bartholomeus Szemere , Samuel Sonntagb , Michael Tareszes , Count Teleki , A . Von Deggenfeld , and S . Mikovich .

      Of course the military were indispensable ; otherwise the populace would instantly have torn down the beards and hung the hangman and his commanding officer in their place . The Cologne journals state that a prosecution has been commenced against six of the municipal councillors in that city , for having , in a discussion as to whether an address should be presented to the King , attacked the government . They add that the burgomaster has been reprimanded for having allowed tbem to continue speaking .

      a correspondent of the * Cologne Gazette states that the Diet of the province of Brandenburg was suddenly " prorogued on the 24 th ult . On the previous day the members bad been discussing , with some energy , the terms of a proposed address to the King , upon the calling of this Diet . One party was for calling his Majesty ' s attention to the old guaranteed rights of the Stande , and expressing the hope that tbe King will maintain them in all their integrity . Some of the speakers on tbe same side went so far as to declare that only upon those old lights had the members assembled at all , and that the temporary exigency alleged in the royal mandate was altogether insufficient to justify their meeting . Tbe discussion was getting inconvenient , hence the summary prorogation .

      In tbe meeting of the Diet of the province of Prussia , held on the 23 rd ult ., ten members handed in a written protest against the legality of the proceedings , and left tbe ball of session . According to law , the votes of seventy members are necessary to give validity to any resolution of a provincial diet ; tbe secession of these ten reduced tbe actual number thirteen below the legal quorum , but it is not anticipated that tbe government will regard this regulation . The ' Constitutionelle' was confiscated at Berlin on the 24 th ult . As it contained no leading article , its offence is matter of conjecture with the public .

      Advices from Frankfort announce that the wealthy merchants and bankers of that city , from whom a very general participation in the new Austrian loan was expected by the government , have subscribed the paltry sum of two million florins . The government journals explain this failure of their expectations by the assertion that several of tbe larger Frankfort houses have subscribed through their agent * in Vienna . The Austrian finance minister has had recourse to the trick of putting foreign houses down for subscriptions without their knowledge or sanction . The « Constitutionell , ' of the 24 th ult ., was seized by the police ; it contained a renwnstance of the citizens of Cologne against the terms of the Royal rebuke recently administered to them .

      The ' Hanover Zeitung' publishes the following official notice : — ' The Government servant Felse , who , in his quality of Cabinet courier , has , contrary to his instructions , conveyed letters to private persons , and has even forwarded correspondence and transmissions of money to the Socialist Democratic Committee of the German fugitives in London , is dismissed from the Royal service by the highest authority . '

      HAMBURGH . The Court of Rome has made at various periods many vain attempts to- establish an episcopal see in Hamburgh , the metropolis of the aorth . These attempts have uniformly realised so lively an oppo-MtSon , not only on the part of the senate and Lutheran clergy , but also from the reigning princes , that ten years ago M . Lanrert , designated by the

      Fra.Nce. Lord Palmersfon's Speech At Tiv...

      Pone to reconstruct and occupy the episcopal aee destroyed by Luther , was ordered out of our town . On the 23 rd ult . the Court of Rome , supported by the two great powers which dispense the affairs of Germany , renewed its efforts with increased pertinacity , and everything seems to indicate the speedy creation of a Romish Bishop of Hamburgh in the midst of a population attached to . Lutheran doctrines . In consequence of this , all the chief men of the Lutheran confession with Dr . Zimmerman at their bead , have assembled in Hamburgh to deliberate upon the best mode of placing a barrier to the incessant invasions of the Romish church in most of the states of Germany . UNITED STATES . By the American steam ship , we have news to the 16 th ult .

      The news brought by this arrival may be characterised rather as interesting , than , important . In the business of their state elections the people of tbe Union are considerably occupied , and now that the Cuban excitement has died away , no topic of allabsorbing interest commands public attention . The actors and' participators , in the anti-slavery riot at Christiana , Lancaster co „ Pennsylvania , wherein Mr . Gorsucb , tbe owner of a' fugitive slave from Maryland , together with his son and some other persons were shot dead on the spot , have been arrested and committed to gaol on the charge of treason . . There were twenty-four prisoners in all , and their capture was effected by tbe United States Marsb » l RobertSi Commissioner > Ingrabam , the United States district attorney , Recorder Lee , two I teutenants , and about fifty of tbe Hinted States

      marines . The excitement about Christiana and neighbourhood vi as intense , and hundreds of , tbe people were in attendance during the examination of the prisoners . Several other arrests were subsequently made , amounting in all to . thirty . A number of tbe prisoners were brought to Philadelphia , and lodged in Moyamensing prison . With one or two exceptions , they are all coloured people . Three captains of the late Hungarian army had arrived in Washington , as delegates of the 128 Hungarians who lately arrived in America from Shumla . It Was Stated that they have been directed by Kossuth to advise with Mdlle . Jagcllo ( now Mrs .

      Tochman ) about the means of reaching the colony which / Jeneral Ujhazy formed , where tbey all propose to settle ; There are fifteen Hungarian ladies with them , all married- The delegates were introduced by major and Mrs . Toenman to the President , and cordially received by him . In answer to their salutations , the President expressed his satisfaction that they and their leader , Kossuth , have chosen this country for their home , and assured tbem that they will find friends wherever tbey may settle . William W . Corcoran , a wealthy broker in Washington , has offered to pay the passages of the exiles from New York to New ' Badai the name of Ujhazy ' s colony in Iowa , their destined home .

      On the 15 th ult . Mr . Edwin Forrest , the actor , re-appeared at the Broadway Theatre , in the play of Damon and Pythias . ' After an absence of two years , he was vociferously cheered . In his address to the audience he made some very strange remarks . He said : — « I have been insulted in the public theatre by a person whom I never saw before , and who was set on by those that dare not do the act themselves , and who hired that , dastard , to whom drunkenness had given a momentary courage , That person , I am sorry to sav . boasts of being an En .

      alishman —( cries of" He be d— - —n , " cheers and laughter)—and the bystanders alone saved him from sudden death . ; \ have been abused , vilified , and misrepresented by a mendacious dungeon lawyer , who , under tbe colour of his trade , without the slightest shadow of justice , has prosecuted and persecuted me ; one who has admitted to me , in the presence of others , that bis ' client was a prostitute , and that be had tbe right to purchase' perjuries from houses of ill-fame to blacken and falsify my character . ' The address was frequently interrupted by deafening plaudits .

      Death of Fenimoub Cooper . —The decease of this distinguished man , who , for over a quarter of a century has held such an eminent position in American literature , „ took place at one o ' clock on Sunday afternoon , the 14 th ult ., at his residence in Cooperstown . For several months past , hie health bad been in a condition which awakened the anxiety of his friends , although with a vigorous constitution and temperate habits , . they could noi but anticipate his attainment of a ripe old age .

      CUBA . Depawubb op the Prisoners for Spain . — Captain Parker , of the Mail schooner William and John , wbich left Havana on the 7 tb , and arrived at Savannah on the 15 th ult ., reports that the prisoners sailed for Spain in a government transport , and only the four already mentioned had been liberated , viz ., Col . Haynes , Captain Kelly , Lieut . Van Vechten , and Mr . Chapman . The New York papers say that no steps will be taken in regard to the American consul at . Havana , who , it was alleged , refused to intercede on belalt' of

      the fifty prisoners who were shot , until an official report of his conduct shall have been made . If it should appear that be made no effort to Lave mercy extended to the unfortunate prisoners who were shot be will unquestionably be removed . The steamer at Pampero has been quietly surrendered by Mr . Sigun to the Collector at Jacksonville . She was overhauled at sea by a cutter , but ran up the river , about Palataka . The cutter Jackson ^ reinforced by Lieut . Merchant and twenty regulars from St . Augustine , was stationed at the mouth of tbe river , with loaded guns , wbich were to be used in case of refusal .

      Kossuth And His Companions. The Mississi...

      KOSSUTH AND HIS COMPANIONS . The Mississippi , with fifty-five exiles on board , touched at Smyrna , and on the 16 th at Syra , one of the Cyclades . Ou the arrival of Kossuth hi the Dardanells , tbe captain of the Mississippi went on board the Turkish vessel and placed bis ship at tbe disposal Of the exiles , at the same time presenting 15 , 000 doiis . to theft ' gallant leafier in the name ol the American government . When all tbe refugees were safely on board Kossuth made a speech in wbich Lord Palrnerston and the Americans were not forgotten , and soon after the Mississippi started on her voyage . On the 20 th ult .. tbey arrived at Marseilles . The vessel only put iu for coals , and was immediately to proceed on its way to England . Several of the townspeople went on board to see them .

      Count Batthyany and bis family , it is said landed , and has arrived in Paris , where he intends to take up his residence . They arrived in the Gulf of Genoa on the 21 st . Numerous vessels immediately went out to welcome tbe noble patriots , ornamented with flags and accompanied with hands of music . The sanitary regulations only allowed a deputation of six persons to approach to manifest to them the joy of tbe inhabitants at their having regained their liberty . ' Kossuth replied to them in very grateful terms , assuring them of the happiness their kind congratulations afforded him . The vessel had not lefttheGulfonthe 25 lbult , Prior to the departure of Kossuth and his companions from confinement , the Austrian Internuncio

      at Constantinople made another strong effort to prevent it . In a letter to the Turkish Ministry for Foreign Affairs , he , after upbraiding the government with breaking the engagements , entered into with the Austrians , also states that they have broken numerous treaties existing between the two conntries ; and as an example he quotes the following clauses of the treaty of Belgrade , wbich ( clause 18 ) says : — ' When such rebels fly into the T urkish States with tbe intention of concealing themselves there , the Porte is to see tbem out and cause them to be punished ; ' and a ' so , when the said rebels and and criminals shall show themselves repentant , and promise better behaviour , the Porte is not to believe them , but detain them and confine them in a place distant from tbe frontier . '

      After going in the same style to a considerable length , he concludes thus : — * On all these grounds , and in consideration that tbe Sublime Porte has proceeded so far as to commence the ex « cution of its design of liberating Kossuth and his companions at ICutayab , the undersigned feels compelled to protest against the liberation of Kossuth and the other detenus of the afore-mentioned city . The undersigned repeats his declaration which be took occasion to make on the 17 th of February of this year , namely , that the departure of any of tbe detained persons from Kutayah without the previously obtained acquiescence of tbe Imperial Austrian government will be regarded as a breach of the agreement concluded between Austria and Turkey upon tbe subject of their- detention , and as an event which must draw after it the destruction

      of that good understanding which has hitherto existed between' tbe two governments . ' It is impossible that the Sublime Porle can shut its eyes to tbe fact that by such a misapprehension of its duties ( as well as of the dictates of a wise policy ) , such & flagrant repudiation of its own assu-

      Kossuth And His Companions. The Mississi...

      rances , such complete obliviousness of all the proofs of r » al friendship evinced by the Imperial government , which fill the annals , of its history , the most painful necessities will be imposed on this Court , arising out of its doubts of the sincerity of tbe intentions of the Sublime Porte , while finally such a proceeding as that now complained of will comnletely justify Austria , in presence of impending questions , to consider nothing but her own interest in her relations > ith the Turkish empire . ' The undersigned has the honour , & c , ' Edward Klkzl . « Bujukdare , July 29 , 1851 / The following is the reply of the Turkish Minister

      for Foreign Affairs : — ; ' His Majesty the Sultan has taken cognizance of the various verbal communications , and of _ the official note of July 29 th of the present year , in which your Excellency the Charge d'Affairs has notified to mo that the resolve of the Sublime Porte to set at liberty the Magyar fugitives now at Kutajab at the beginning of September has not the acquiescence of His Imperial Majesty . Tho friendship . which has existed for centuries between the Sublime Perte and the Austrian Court , to maintain and confirm which is , even upon the ground of territorial proximity / so much the interest , of both State«—this friendship , upon which the Sublime Porte , has always set the highest value , it has always sought to preserve by averting every occurrence that could cause its interwith sufficient

      ruption . I am not able to express force how greatly the government of the Sultan regrets the difference of opinion which has lately divided the two Cabinets on the subject discussed in your last note . The Sublime Porte gladly entertains tbe hope that the Cabinet of Vienna will finally acknowledge the frankness and uonesiy which have uniformly characterised its proceedings in this matter , and will put away all those prejudicial auspicions which , from the terms of the communication of July 29 , it would seem the imperial Cabinet was then inclined to entertain . For , in fact , it is not until all engagements taken by tbe Sultan ' s Cabinet have been punctually fulfilled , and after taking most anxious measures for carrying Out the safe guardianship of the fugitives , that the Sublime Porte has determined to remove tbem from

      its territories , considering their detention no longer necessary . We find it hard to believe that any one Can with fairness characterise this resolution as a breach of the engagements entered into with respect to the refugees , Your Excellency has taken occtsion , in the note of July the 29 th , to allude to ancient treaties , and also to the written assurance given by the Sultan to bis Majesty the Emperor on this subject . But it is superfluous at this time of day to refer back to those old treaties , since the most explicit declarations have been long ago made to tbe Imperial Court as to the limits within which those engagements were and were not to find their application . As to the letter of the Sultan to the

      Emperor , it contains no more than the assurance that the refugees should be so guarded that it should not , be in their power to disturb tbe tranquillity of bis Majesty's dominions . The note addressed by the Turkish Cabinet to the Austrian Internuncio , April 6 , 1850 , to which your Excellency finally appeals , and which contains in the most express terms the promises of tbe Sublime Porte , states that , " after the restoration of order in Hungary , the Porte , before setting the Magyar refugees at liberty , will inform the Austrian government of its intention ; and endeavour to procure its sanction for the act . " Now , tranquillity has long been re-established in Hungary ; and , if

      there are some few still occupied with projects of disorder , yet are they not , by the express admission of the Internuncio , in a situation to excite an insuirectinn . Besides one might wait in vain for the time when no persons in Hungrr y could reasonably be suspected of evil projects , since in all time and countries there exist such . But , although the Sublime Porte has for a long time thought that it might liberate tbe refugees without injury to any , yet it has not refused , upon representations made to it , to protract somewhat the period of their detention , —a proof of the neighbourly feelings it cherished towards Austria . This alone did the Sublime Porte undertake in its engagements with

      Austria , —lo watch over the refugees in its own States , so long as any rekindling of insurrection was to be feared from them . But if , on the one hand , a friendly feeling led it to undertake and fulfil that onerous task , the Sublime Porte expects , on tbe other hand , that , in consideration of such self-abnegation , the Austrian government will not claim indefinitely to prolong an unpleasant state of things , from which nothing but embarrassments and misunderstandings are to be apprehended . If thus , at length , the Sublime Porle has felt itself compelled to liberate the detenus at the beginning of September this has not been without the . complete conviction that , looking at the subjected state of

      Hungary , no necessity lor their further detention exists , andjjthat the Porte has fulfilled its utmost duty , of which conviction the Imperial Court was informed without delay , and its acquiescence in the same solicited . Conscious , therefore , that in no particular has it been wanting to its engagement , the government of his Majesty the Sultan does not surrender the hope that after a candid reconsideration of the facts , and a just appreciation of what must obviously be the desire of the Sublime Porte , to put an end to a situation fraught with difficulties and dangers , the Imperial Cabinet will attain to tbe conviction that the Sultan cannot depart from the resolution he has taken . ' I have the honour , & c , ' Constantinople , Aug . 16 . ' Ali Pasha . '

      The First Batch Of Emigrants For Califor...

      The first batch of emigrants for California , to be sent from Paris with the produce of the lottery of the lingots of gold , set sail on the 30 th ult . Thjs consisted of 160 persons , and 184 more are expected to leave on the 15 th inst . The fetes of national independence at Brussels closed on Thursday last , A Modern Miracle . —The 'Univers' contained the following in its number of Saturday : — ' There is much talk at Rome of an extraordinary cure which has taken place in tbe very palace of the Vatican . The following is the manner in which

      this prodigious fact is described , and which will , Without doubt , become the subject of a judicial inquiry : — ' A young girl of about twenty years of age , whose family is employed in tbe domestic side of the palace , had contracted a bad fever , owing to the loss of her father a little time before , as well as to tbe influence of the season , which has multiplied at Rome diseases of this kind , and by which a great number of victims have fallen within the last ( en months . Notwithstanding the enlightened efforts of the doctor of tbe Pontificial " family , " and of her parents , the young invalid was soon . at tbe last extremity . The vice-cure of th « palace ( which , as is

      known , is a foundation ) , a member of the Augustin order ( Monseigneiw the Sacristan of the same order is the titular cure ) , bad administered to her tbe extreme unction , and had recited the prayer recommending ber soul . Her last sigh was hourly expected . For the sake of enabling our readers to understand tbe prodigy about to be related , it is necessary to stat-j that during the course of the malady the vice-cure had several times engaged the pions patient to invoke the aid of a venerable servant of God , of the Augustin order , whose beatification is about to be declared , and he had even mixed in the potions given to such girl some little fragments of the clothes of the venerable man . On the other

      band , according to tbe usage of religious families they bad carried inti the chamber of the dying person the Santo-Bambino de ' l'Ara Cceii , demanding of these last resources of tbe faith a cure no longer in the reach of human science to bestow . Lei us return to the bed of tbe dying girl , whom we find in a profound sleep , from which she shall soon awaken to relate with smiles on her lips how she had seen the infant Jesus , baying at his si < k a venerable servant of God , clad in the habit ot the order of St . Augustin . She adds that she feels herself cured , but very weak , and she asks for a cup of broth to give her strength . The broth is given to her , although the request is regarded as coming from one

      in the last agitation of dying ; buvthe sick'girl , who bad felt the , action pf . gracje , . and who knew well that she was cured ; rises ; throw ' s off all - the blisters , of which not a trace was left on her-body , and on the following day repaired-to theI church of l'Ara Cosh " , at more than half a league distant , to thank the Santo Bambino and tbe servant of God , who had restored her ' to life and health . You may easily comprehend the sensation that a fact of this kind must have pr . oduced . upon a population bo full of faith , especially on the eve of the ceremony of the 21 st , wbich will put solemnly upon the altar , in placing him among the blest , the venerable Father Clavier , of the Society of Jesus , and at the close of

      the expiatory triduo which has been celebrated at St . Andre della Valle in . reparation ot the sacrilegious outrage committed against ibe Madonna du Vicolo dell'Abate Luigi . ' . Our ' readers will be obliged io us for saying some words about this ceremony , and the . cause which led to it . Last year Colonel Nardoni , assailed by two assassins , providentially escaped death . It so happened that the theatre of this event was precisely under the Madonna placed at the corner Du Vicolo dell'Abate Luig i . The . colonel attributed bis escape to the protection of the Holy Virgin , and out of gratitude caused the image which had so protected him to be carefully restored , for , owing to the isolation of tbe place , it had been much neglected . Demagoguism , as it appeared , owes a grudge to tbe Queen of Heaven , for having saved a man whose death would

      have been so precious : to the republican cause , and a sacrilegious and democratic hand , some time ago . smashed with stones the crystal which SGCUreS the sacred image , and mutilated its blessed features . This brutal outrage having filled tbe town with horror , his Eminence the Cardinal Vicar , yielding to entreaties , ordered a solemn triduo , which took place the . JUth , lath , and 16 U of tbe month . The image so " outraged by demagogues was placed on the grand altar of the church , in the midst of an infinity of tapers , which crowned it as with a diadem 0 ( fire , and for three days she received the homage , the invocations , and the tears of a faithful peoplp . A pamphlet published in Brussels , on the centralisation system of the Austrian government , and of which the Russian councillor , Tengoborski is known to be tbe author , has been prohibited , on account of its hostile nature . A dispatch from Calais announces that a cannon had been fired by the electric current from Dover .
