-HE GLORIOUS YICTORY OF THE PEOPLE OF TJBKHA . In ear second and third editions of hut Saturday we _ ,- _ a brief account of the Insurrection at Tienna , the Itteai of the people , and flight of the idiotic Emperor , ffe now git-a full account of this most Important popolar victory , preparatory to narrating the subttqaent jreati , so intwestA-g to the people of ererj nation in gor-pe . Great excitement prerail . d at Tienna on the 5 th inst ., Is co-itou-ace of the publication ot the Emperor ' s pro . olsmi tion against the Hucgariaas . Public opinion had already been put on the alert by the concentration of jirge masses of troopi ia the vicinity of the capital , and t & e femtnt was sHU increased w _« it was said that tie dissolution of the Hu-Kuian Parliament , tha
appointmen t of B . ron Jellachich to the Lord-lieutenancy of Hungary , and all the other measures contained In the la te prcclamation , were but the links of a chain which w to bind Austria down to what aha was previous te the days of Jl . rcb . It was whispered at first , and aftertr . r-s iou-ly protested -rat the military , and especially tie G-rmanGrenadiers , were in favour of tha popular csnse . Burly en the morning of the * th the Grenadiers ireie ordered to march and join the expedition against ihe Hungarians . Thry did not , indeed , refuse to quit their barrack ' , but they were forewarned of their inarch sad » : e object , and coararanicatc- wiihthe corps of Kali jnal Guards of the suburb ef Gumpendorf , in which tbeir barracks were situate , and with the Academical Irgton , from both of which they received a promise that mea-nrcs would be taken to prevent their departure .
Such -aeasurts were indeed taken . The National Gi . rds from the Hundsthnrn assembled at six o ' clock oa the m * rnlEg of the 6 th at the terminus of tbe Northern Bailroad , from which they removed the rails , for the purpose of preventing tha departure of the Grenadiers . Ihe latter arrived soon after , and the commanding officer , seeing tbat the removal of his troops by rail was impossible , gave orders for their proceeding on foot to Ganserndmf , a station on the line , from whence he hoped it would bs possible to effect their conve > anc . by the raitrotd . Butt-Is plan , too , was resisted by theXational Guards , tha number of which increased with evtry r _ i _ -t- . A barricade eff-ctnally stopped the march of the regiments sear the Tabor Brif gc . Orders were given for the sterming of this barricade , and the Waroffice being aware of the mutinous disposition cf the
Grenadiers , several battalions of cavalry were iss ^ ucctd So escort them . But tbe Grenadiers crossed tbe bridge , scaled the barricade , and fraternised with the National Guards . The latter destroyed part of ' . he bridge , tha ? preventing ~ ie cavalry from interfering . Regimtntsol fnt ' antr ; were then drawn up to reduce the insurgents , en _ to enforce obedience to the commands of the government , and the artillery arrived att . n o ' clock , when tbe rioters were imnncnsd to surrender - this thty .-fas ? d to do , for tbey had meanwhile been rdnfbrc-d by the Academics ! Legion . Tbe parties stood thus opposed to one another , until a body of workmen proceeded to seize a powder waggon and four gans , which they effected without any opposition from the artillerymen . Bntth ' s act of the in-urgent , gave , nevertheless , the signal for a bloody conflict .
The Nassau infantry fired three inccessive volleys , which were answered by loud cheers and quick discharges fram the National Guards , the students , and the Grenadiers . The Nassau infantry was toon forced to re-ire , and , on being charged with the bayonet , their retrogade movement became a downright flight . General Bredy their commander , was shot The government troops had twenty killed ; the insurgents five . Tfaer . were many wounded . After routing t . e government troops , the insurgents ssarched from the suburbs into tbe town , where tbey place , their guns in the middle of the University-square ; the gaies of the town were guarded by detachments of students and National Guards , the tocsin was sounded , and a central committee formed for carrying eu the war .
At one o ' clcck a party of the insurgent National Guards wera attacked on tbe Stephana Flats by a party ef National Guards , who stood by the government , but after a abort fight the latter were farced to retire into the Cathedral of St Stephen ' s , the doors of which they then barricaded firem within . But the insurgents battered down the doors , entered the church , and dislodged their antagonists , whose leader waa kilted on the very steps of the altar . One of the city gates , the Burgbtor , still remained ia possession of tbe government troops . Tbres companies ef sappers and miners , witb four guns , entered this gate at three o ' clock in the afternoon . They were at once attacked and totally routed , in spite of ihe grape and eanisUr vMeh tfcey firid from tleir pieces . Hany of them were captured , disarmed , and co-fined ia the University buildings . Formidable barricades were constructed while tbis fight was going on . The old fortifications of the city were occupied by the artillery of the National Guards .
After this the tide of insurrection rose to an uncon querable height . The rioters Entered the IFar-ofSce between the hours cf fire and six . seized tbe cannon aad arms deposited in that building , snd captured the Minister of War , Const Lstour . Tbe wretched man was conducted into the street , and ihen slain with blows from axes asd sledge hammers . The p < ople tore the clotbei and orders from tbe bleeding body , and hncg the naked corpse on a gibbet , where it remained suspended for a whole day , during which the National Guards riddled it with musket balls . Count Latour _ { apers were seized and brought to the University .
At half past six o'clock there was but one place of refuge left for the troops and National Guards who aided with the government—that place waa the Arsenal , fattens for its trophies from the Turkish wars . Tha people surrounded tbe Arsenal , and demanded from the garrison tbey should gire up tbe arms which it con . tained . They refused . A combat commenced , in the eouwe of which tie garrison swept t ~ e fieroigawe trifli crape _ * _ e _ aW-r , and killed and disabled a great num . ber of insurgents , whose fury increased after each unsuccessful attempt to gain possession ef the building . The committee of 0 tndents aent several flags of trace , -a m . miming the g _» lion to -nrrender , but fie heaters were shStdead on the spot , -be people then _ M _ m ~_ c- _ bombarding the Arsenal , and the firieg continued all night through , till fix o'clock en the mernlcg of the 7 th , when the garrison surrendered . Those among the popular psrty who were not provided with weapons were then armed . The number of killed and wounded was very
great .
ABEITIOV-L P _* T . CD __ JS . It is asserted tha : on the sight of tbe 5 th the ' democratical union' had plentifully distributed money and liquors amongst thejtwo battalions of grenadier ., andhad secretly concerted with them the means of arresting their departure for Hungary . The movement of the students towards the railways In order to break up the commencement of the line was lbs result of a resolution to that effect passed on the morning of the 6 th in the Hall of the Academy , the students vehemently declaring that the defeat of the Hungarians would ba the signal for the oppression of the entire empire , and its subjection to military tyranny . The ' academic legion' has suffered severely , having exposed Itself to the greatest dangers during the entire day and night of the 6 th . Several Hazyars were conspicuous as popular leaders . Thousands of armed peasants arrived daring the afternoon .
Tbe working -buses were chiefly armed with iron crowbars and lances , and were frequently heard vociferating * Death to Latour , ' the -Gniiter of War , whom tbey accused of having issued an order to decimate the two battalions of grenadiers , and to bombard the dry .

Ia tbe papers of Canal Latour a correspondence has been found between bim , Count Lamberg , Jellachich tad Bathyany , against («_ tajs the journal we quote from ) the liberties of tbe people .

-OMI . IIS 0 » SA . _ T- . The committee of safety bad been increased to twenty numbers , one third of whom were to hold permanent sittings . The newly elected common council bad also declared itself ( according to the instruction of the Diet ) enpermoaenM . 38 , 000 muskets , many theusand pistols , and arms of curious worbaaashlp bave been distributed amongst tha workmen . XIIL-D UD WOBBDLD . It is calculated that the number of persons killed or mortally wounded on the 6 th and morning of the 7 tb , is about 900 , including the military . -Ht __ tr _ aoa . The Emperor , vwhe fled in the direction of Lin-, was stopped by the armed peasantry at Sieghartekirchen ( onl . two post stations from Tienna ) , and sent a courier to Tienna demanding the immediate attendance ot the Minister Hornbosti to countersign the Imperial mandates .
A-VAUCI OF TBI CROATS . In tbe Diet on the 8 th a despatch was read from the Mayor of Presburg , anneundng that Jellachich was at Karlsburg and Altenbnrg , only half a league from the city ; that be had sommosed the town to capitulate , and the bridge to be reconstructed , otherwise he should b . mbard the tows . The despatch requested tbe Diet to intercede or command Jellachich to spare tbe city . After a great loss of time in debate , it was resolved to send ths manifest left by the Emperor te the Ban , injwhich he announces tbe formation of a popular ministry , and to request him to await instructions , Tbe siMog broke up at half-past aeven . The following information respecting the movements of the Ban of Croatia waa received at Tienna in the course of the 9 th inst . : — 1 " . ' Twelve o ' clock . —We bave just received tbe aews that Jellachich has crossed the Austrian frontiers near Brack , on tbeLeitha .
'Three p . m . —Croats bave been seen at Schwadorf , but they consist for tbe most part of undisciplined robber-like beads . 8 , 000 Serecxans are trying to force their way neir O . denfaurg . ' Four p . m . —On its being said that Jellachich approaches Tienna , and is only an hour ' s distance , the rapptl is beaten in every street of tbe town . ' It was run cured in Tienna that Eossutb , at the head of 60 , 000 men had marched against the Ban . VaMHA _!< I _ GZD . On tbe receipt of the news of the revolution at Tienna , the Ban immediately broke up his camp at ftaab and Wiselburg , and advanced at once upon Titnna . At four
o'clock en the afternoon of tbe 9 th dense crowds , assembled on the rampatts and heights of Tienna , beheld ad vancing , slowly , and iu good order , regiment after regiment of horse and foot , tbe army of Jellachich . Great was the consternation ia the Austrian capital ; the more timid left the city , whilst tbe drums of the National Gu . r . and . Academical Legion beat the generate through the streets calling the citizens to arms . Every preparation was made to defend the city . The Hungarian army , 60 , 000 strong , and ita ranks swelling as it advanced by crowds of armed peasantry , was only four leagues behind the Ban , urged on by the determined Eossutb , and commanded by General Moga , who beat back the Croats at Stohlwekfenbarg .
T-C-ha , Oct . 8 th . —This morning tbe deputy Prado waa sent by tbe Diet to Jellachich . camp . Four o'clock . —The whole city is ia commotion . Je'lachlch'a army it reported to be in sight , from the towers of the city , at a distance ef two or three hours ' march , at Ebirsdorf . The drums are beating iu the faubourgs , and preparations are being made fer the defence of tbe city . Every man is hurrying to his p » t . In a few hours our fate may be decided . At twelve at night on the 9 th the alarm was beaten , aa it was said that the watch-fires of Auersperg ' s troops had been extinguished , and a surprise was feared . The avenues to the university were immediately covered with cannon , as was also theb-etiona and the gates . No thing of the nature anticipaud took place , however , and at half-past ten in the
morning of tbe 10 th the precautions were relaxed . A guard who approached too near tbe camp was taken and disarmed by some ef Auersperg ' s men , aad shot without the cone ., knowledge . The bodies of three civilians were found drowned In a o &' ghbouring canal . They bad been murdered by the soldiery on approaching the camp . -Loesnth , at the head of 70 , 000 troops , was close at band ; fifteen steamers on the Danube were conveying ia all haste his advance guard to the capital , which stood with open arma ready to receive him , A great quantity of guns and ammunition , sent by Windischgratz to Jeliachicb , were intercepted and brought into Tienna . TiEMtu , Oct . 10 . —Jellachich yesterday crossed the Austrian -tender . His army must have suffered lev . rely .
The Diet immediately sent a deputation to him to dr . mand the object of bis approach to Tienaa . The depu'ation met the Bin at his head-quarters at Schwadorf ( midway between Brnck-on . the-Leitha and Tienna . ) Tbe van guard , which was a league in advance , constated of a metley crowd , tattered and ragged , without shoes on their feet . In the head quarters regular mill-• sty wera interspersed witb other men , all in a wretched eondtt' . on . Tbe Ban received the deputation ' amicably , expressed bimielfpeacefully , but at the same time evasively—ivlz ., that with regard to Hungary he was not under the Diet ; rut with regard to the whole monarchy , he would obey in ( oto theecmmandsofhlsMsjesty . In const qaence of tbis declaration , tbo Diet continued lt » precautionary measures .
One o Clock , p . m . —Not only have 8 000 _ - _ s _ ets , w _ i . h Windlscbgratz was sending to Jellachich , been just seized at the Custom House , but last night a similar convoy , consisting of arms , was seized and taken to tbe arseaal . This was occasioned by a happy inciient . One of tfca c-rid-eto-s lost the bill of lading , as this supply waa being taken to Jellachich , through the Wiedner-road , during the night . Half-past Three . —An immense crowd is hurrying to the Imperial Arsenal for arms . It appears that the Diet , which has already put a stop to tbe distribution , has again conceded it . Waggons are being loaded with arms and taken to the district commanders in the fanbourgs . Arms are also being sent to the villages beyond the lines .
Five . —At tbis moment cannon are again being drawn up In all the great squares , and two at every gate . Although the city ia now cleared of the barricades which impeded the communication , the gates , which had been partly opened , are again closed . Half-past Six . —No change of importance has taken place in tbe state of things . The Democratic Union has farmed a committee , calling npen the inhabitants of the country to oome forward . It is likely to be very effectual . Fifteen hundred Stjrian volunteers bave just entered the city . The A-L . EHEWB Z _ rrc _ G , ia a supplement dated Tienna , the 9 th Inst ., says : —* The right wing of Jella . chtch , under General Both , has been beaten by the Mag . yars under Perexl ; and Roth , together with bis whole staff , and 2 , 000 Croatiaus , bave been taken prisoners . ' The Hungarian main army , un . er Kossuth , entered Weisselberg , 70 , 000 men strong .
The Diethaereo-ivedanotificatloa that 15 , 000 Magyars are embarking at Presburg , for tbe purpose of aiding the inhabituts of Tienna . National Guards from Bruno , Baden , Vo * law , and tha __ n ___ . diBg province * , are enbsi-Bff the capital . Thero ua not mors than 3000 men at S-hwador ., chiefly irregular troops . Auersperg la aaid to bave received reinforcements from Llnz . A por . ton of his troops are quartered ia the Wieden faubourg . To understand this , it may be as well to state that the inner town er citadel of Tienna Is strongly fortified , and is separated from the . faubourgs , of whioh there are thirty-four , by a deep ditch , a wall forty feet high , with eleven bastions , and the glads or large plain . There are twelve gates with drawbridges from the inner city to the glacis . The usual garrison of Tienna is 20 , 000 men .
In the sitting of the Diet , at noon , on the 10 th , Sebuselka , as reporter of the provisional committee , stated : — 'The night was quiet : it was reported tbat considerable bodies oi troop , were spproachiag Tienna from every side , aud tbe committee could with difficulty restrain the armed burghers from making an attack up . on the troops . ' At tbis sitting the Diet passed resolutions to the . ollowing effect : —The Diet which , as a constituent one , cannot be dissolved before tbe fulfilment of IU mission , resolves under present c-rcumstancts net to separate , but tor-main true to ita duty ; the Diet represent * all the nations of Austria which have elected it ; it is the only constitutional and legal organ between the constitutional monarch and the sbvxxiiair ne . u , for the preservation of the unincumbered liberty of the people aad the hereditary throne .
The Diet tu-seque-tly issued an address to the people , setting forth that the Diet , in unison with the people of Titnna had endeavoured , during the first memenU of 6 th of October , to oppose reactionary as well asanarehM principles ; that it had declared itself permanent ; appointed a committee for the preservation of order ; sen-adtpatatioa ' to the Emperor in order to fulfil , in unison witb him , ' the wishes of tbe sovereign people ; that bis Majesty bad ben graciously plsaied to accede to ths demand for a new and popular ministry , but that on the 7 th he had taken the deeply-to-ke-regretted resolution to remove from the vieinityof theeapital . The proclamatiei adds that thereby the freedom and Welfare of Fatherland are endangered ; and that it is necai'ia-yfor the people of Titnna and of Austria in genend to manifeat the ram * spirit of moderation that theyeriDCtdra Hay last . It concludes by announcing thatDob-lhof . Horaboseel , and , Xrans hare been appointed miniater .. '
STATB OI VtCSDM 01 TUB KIOHT . 0 * IBS 10 TH . TmrwA , Oct . 11 . —Last night was without doubt the most distracted which the city of Titnna has endured glncelti bombardment by Kapelebn in 1801 . In the ttretts till early dawn nothing was seen but armed men , whadthcr singly or in small Irregular bodies , or in regulate , cospauits were marching in soleatn silence at a measured pace . At the corners of the streets , and the open-quart * , and in front of the coffeehouses , stood toa-re groups in tnimitrl ctavtnation , or in violent altercation ; Every aow aad fttasi-gl tskota were fired ,
-He Glorious Yictory Of The People Of Tj...
esptdally in the Wieden and the Landstrasse , which aroused tbe attention of all . Behind , and upon the barricadat , armed blousemea were gathered round the watchfires , and among whom were women and girls , scattered , teme sleeping upon heaps of stones , others laughing , and roaming noisily about . The ramparts and bastions of the city in particular bad a most animated appearance , watch-re joined watebfire , eaoh surrounded by a motley group ; legionaries in tbe kalabressst , workmen in their sleeves , and National Guards . Above the gates are mounted cannon , welch command the entrance totheolty ; betide them were burning torches , borne by the burgher artillery , scattered academicians , or workmen ; close by were ranged whole companies armed with every kind of weapon , whose patrols marched up and down , keeping guard , with muskets or rifles , or carbines or pikes in their bands . In tbis manner from 8 , 000 to 19 , 000 sen were stationed on the ramparts .
Meanwhile the Diet , the Communal Council , tbe Central Committee of the Democratic Union , and the Supreme Command ef the National Guard remained in permanence . The attention of all was fixed upon the central paints—upsn tbe military camp In the Schwar . ceuberg garden , from whence a sudden attack of the city ia apprehended , and upon Jellachich with bis army , or , rather , bis scattered hordes . In regard to both the mosteontra-ictory reports are ( . till afloat . With regard to the amount of the troops assembled iu tbe camp between the Wieden aud Landstrasse , the number ef the combined masses ef tbe troops has been cansiderably increased by tbe
reinforcement of all the bodies ef troops in the neighbourhood of the city . According to perfectly authentic accounts , tbe following divisions are concentrated in the eamp : — Three battalions of tbe regiment Nassau , Poles ; two battalions of the regiment Biania , Poles ; two battalions of the regiment Kheven . holler , Cwcha ; one battalion of the reglmsnt Stephen , Galliclana ; one battalio n of the regiment Leopold , Bohemians ; one battalion of grenadiers , Germans aad Bohemians ; nina companies of pioneers ; one division of tappers and miners ; two cemplete regiments of cavalry ; six batteries of cannon ( small howltztra and heavy artlllerj }; one battalion of Jagera , who only returned this sight from escorting the Emperor to Schoenbruu :
Tbe position of these troops , which probably amount to from fifteen thousand to twenty thousand men , is a perfectly secure one for an attack , on which account all hurried plans for an immediate attack by the artillery of the arsenal , by tho students and National Guards , can meet with nothing but disapprobation from every one acquainted with military tactics . Nevertheless , for a permanency the present position is quite untenable . The military is ws . ged in between tha Sohwarzenberg gardens and tho districts of Belvidtre , is cut eff from tbe city , and snrronnded by hostile faubourgs , and as soon as tbe wet weather seis in , whicb it actually did at four o ' clock this afternoon , tbey must b . disorganised . The outposts oi the camp extend as far as Karls-irche , on tbe one side , and on tbe other to tho Mtazlienidorfer line ,
On the Wieden tbe most scaadalous excesses are com * mitted by tbeir outposts ami single patrols . Last night no less than six cases were notified , in which quiet pas . sengers some armed and others unarmed , hurgbers and students , bad beea shot by the sentinels and soldiers . This morning several corpses were taken out of the canal In the Wi . den , which were more or less wounded or mutilated , and the greater part quite naked and completely plundered . Tbe Diet sent one negociation after another to General Auersperg , who , however , gave nothing but evasive answers , and maintained that he was imperfectly acquainted with the facts , and that , on the whole , it was impossible for him to be responsible for the actions of individual soldiers under existing
oircumstance * From this we see that a certain demoralise * ticn bat already appeared amo : g them . We are also informed that the roldiers , officers , at well as privates , were dissatisfied with General Auersperg , and witb hit conduct ; ' and all eyes are now naturally turned upon Prince Felix Sob war . ehberg . The public opinion in the city , in regard to these troops , is various . Tbe more resolute are determined upoa an attack at an ; cost , in order that their number may not be increased by continued new arrivals . The moderate are merely for a defensive position . Military tacticians recommend the garrisoning of the Wienerberg , in the rear of the camp . The Diet and the Committee for Public Safety are for negociatina . It is manifest tbat tbe present state ef things must not and cannot last .
. The second important question which occupies all minds is Jells _ Mcb ; The latest intelligence from the Emperor Is that yes terday , at noen , he entered Ereems , on tbe other side of the Danube , from Siegbart KireV . . a . The inhabitants of Stela wanted to hinder bis fur : iier progress by pulling down a bridge , but were pr . vented from doing so by the National Guards of Ereems . Between four thouand and five thousand men , with eight cannons , formed the escort of the Emperor on his jouraey , and it is asserted that some Bohemian ( Czech ) deputies bavn been seen with the Emperor . Hit Majesty , so it is said , ha ? taken tbe route to Prague . The generate is again being beaten , but its object is only to collect the armed force .
Ocr . 12 . —In the sitting of the Diet ou the morning of the 11 th inst . M . Schuselha announced that 300 wellequipped National Guards had arrived the previous night from Bruno , and that ho by telegraph bad required from Gratz the sending af mora reinforcements ia aid oi Tienna . M . Borrusch was entrusted by the Diet with drawing np an address to be sent to the Emperor . That address was read by bim in tbe evening sitting of the same day . Ths Emperor was reminded of the fatal words , 'It is teo late ; ' he was required to nominate a popular ministry , as promised by him , and to return to Tienna . The address wat unanimously approved . A proclamation of the Emperor had be ^ n sent to the Diet by M . Lo-ner , It was dated from Herzogeubusch , and without counter-signature . The Emperor mentions in ita certain faction in Tienna in unfavourable terms , and intimates bis intention not to choose Tienna , but another place , for his deliberations .
On the evening of the 11 th , Jellachich ' s troops were posted on the so-called Wiener Berg ( Tienna Hill ) , in the immediate vicinity of the city . The Emperor of Austria has reached Ollmutz , in M . r & v ' a . This ia a fact pregnant with importance , as it shows the determination on the part of the court to throw themselves upon the Slavonian party for rapport . The Bohemian Deputies have invited the election of a new Diet , to be held at Bruhn , in Moravia , on the 20 th inst . LATEST NEWS . B-IBEAT OT J ___ ACHICH AMD AUEBBP . BQ FBOM VD 5 HNA .
Jellachich and his Croats bave retired from the Wiener Berg towards Styria , and Auersperg has abandoned bis position on the Bslvidere and the Schwart . zenberg Garden . The former bad reached Naustadt . The latter tas gone te Enzersdorf . Thus a complete separation it made betwetn tbe Austrian force dud tbe troops of Jellachich . This news is from Tienra under date the IS h lost . It appear * tbat tho Ban ' s position Is one of imminent danger , particnluly after the calling out and erganisa .
tion of tbe hndsturmi Up to two p . m . ou tbe 12 th , there was every appearance of a ' contest . The advanced potts of the Croatian army had commenced a partial attack on the National Guards near the gate of the so . called Landstrasse ; a f-w shots were exchanged , and then tbe assailants withdrew . Meantime all the popular force bad received the alarm and soon appeared under arms . The next intelligence was that the troops of Jellacblch bed left the Wiener Berg and proceeded towards Neustadt . The Hungarlaa army was at Brack , await ing the invitation of the Diet to advance to the city .
The military at Vienna withdrew with such preclpttati-h from IU position in ths Schwar . "nbaggart .-, that they left a great number of uniforms , books , and weapons . Tbis flight of the military was supposed to have chiefly been occasioned by the spirit of Insaberdlnation pervading tbe German regiments , who did not like to fight against their countrymen . Some frightfully mutilated bodies were found in the deserted camp of Auersperg .

• Citizbm Pbksident , —You have constituted a new Ministry , which , in my eyes Is tbe personification of tbe counter-revolution . Tbe Republic will now be directed , after eight months ' existence , by men who , at all times , haw employed their talent and efforts to prevent it from coming into exiatence . That policy may bs adroit , but 1 cannot conceive it , and I approve it still less . In presence of the dangers which menace libert y in Francs , whilst it triumphs inGsimany . I re-Bumemy place among tbe adversaries of Boy-Icy , which I will combat under all disguises .

, On Monday M . Dufaure , the now Minister of the Intsrlor , read the programme of tho new Cabinet , containing a demand for an addition ef 100 , 000 francs to the secr . t service money for the year IMS . After he had done speaking , a debate arose on the question of cunfidence . MM . Dupo-tdeEossac , Portalls , Landrin , and Lsdrn-Rolltn , each addressed the home , and declared that in the new arrangement of the 0 . bluet they saw but the most unequivocal symptoms of reaction . Tho lat : er was interrupted several times in the coorae of hie spied ) , and at length quitted the tribune without finishing it . This gave rise to a sound of gnat confusion . The debate coae uded by the Assembly passing a vote of confidence in the new Ministry by a majority of 570 ( o 155 . The Montagnards all voted against the government . About 100 members of the Clubs of the Iustitut "
and Palais National abstained from voting . Tbe veto tiemiaires are delighted , for tbey consider themeelres to be now la tho high way te a monato . y . The Dbbatb declares that is wisbej -Jbe new cabinet every success , M . Brissot , grandson ef ths well kuown member of tho Convention of that name , has been appointed ohefdu cabinet of tbe Minister of Public Works .
DISCOSSIOM Or IHB CONSTITUTIOH . On Thursday the Assembly adopted all the articles from tho 46 th to the 89 A , without any discussion of in . terest . They then discussed that arilcl . t ? hi . _ fixes tha talary ot the Piesid .-t at 600 , 000 francs . M . Ant , Tbouret propoied to reduce It to 4 . 0 , 600 francs . T . e Left demanded en optn vote by division , tho majority a vote by ballet . The amendment of M . Thouret wa ? negatived by a majority of 549 a « axust 182 . The Prosldent Is therefore to receive an annual salary of twentyfour thousand pounds . A number of articles were vottd on Friday chlifly relating te the Council cf State . On Saturday , Chapter Til . of tho Constitution should have been diacusscd but was postponed , and tbe Assembly proc » eded to consider Ciispttr Till ., which has reference to the judiciary organisation of the Republic . Several articles ware voted .
TUB DEHCC-ATS . M . Demosthene Olivier , one of the Montagnards , presented a decree , which he inttnds to push forward with all the quickness the forms of the house will allow , for a general amnesty . The decree is signed by upwards of fifty members . The republlcsns oi the ve Me and tht democrats bave rssolved to voto as one man against General Cavaignac and the new government . This party is going to open a new club at tbe B . zasr Bonne Nouvelle , ta be compese . entirfly of members of the Assembly , The public trill be admitted as hearers , and will be permitted to propose questions , to which the members will answer . This project baa originated with M , Ledru Rollin ,
There has been some agitation in the faubourgs today , occasioned by placards headed ' Provisional Government , ' followed by a list of members , in which figure the familiar names of Ledtu Rollin , Cau . sldiere , Louie Blano , Barhes , Blanqui , Raspail , and Cabet . The police tore down tbe placards , but not before tbey bad caused some emotion , Tbe democratic banquets of the red republicans kuep their course . One has just taken place at Montpeller . The guests on this oooasion , besides sieging the' Oarmegnole' and' Caira , ' continually cried ' Tlve Barbes !' ' Tivo Raspall !'« Tive la Republique Socials ! ' Tive 93 !' ' Tive Robespierre I '
Tbe working classes are in a state of great distress from the scarcity of labour , and they are a ' so said to b « dif contented with nhat theirleaderg called the progress of reaction . The clubs which were put down for a time be . gin gradually to assume a more formidable appearance ; what is irorse is , that the efforts made by the police to ktep down tbe public clubs , by enforcing the laws in their utmost vigour , has had the effect of calling a much more dangnroua class of clubs once more into existencenamely , the secret societies . Ths new" from Tienna and the change in the govtrnmeat cause much excitement . The dabs are everywhere assembling , and the state of siege docs not prevent innumerable private meetings . Many of tbem bave voted addresses ot felicitation to the inhabitants of Tienna , in which they declare tbat it is impassible for France to romain behind Austria .
ThauBUM of M . Raspall has superseded that of M . Ladru Rollin with tbo faubourgs . It is said he will be put forward as the candidate for tbe presidency , Th » attacks of the ultra-Republican papas on General Cavaigoae and tbe new Ministry appear to incrtai ' in violence . The Reio-M . says it fears that the acts of the government will cause it to regret M , Guizot himstlf . It tells the Ministers that their ancestors , In place of closing tbe clubs opened them ; i . i place of gagging the press , they made use of it ; and when dangerous doctrines were promulgated , the beads of tbe g »
Tern-¦ sent refused tbem at the peril of tbeir popularity , and even of their lives , and diffused amongst the mass of tbe people their good , sense and tbe fire of their patriotism . ' At present , ' adds the Re . obhi , 'it it the fashion in the official world to repudiate the first republic and to reduce the revolution to a string of senseless phraies . France knows too well the cost ' of social commotions , but after having overthrown three monarchies , the re volution will not yield to the favourers of reaotion , and , if tbe men whom it has elevated to power repudiate it will crush them . '
The annual printers' and compositors' dinner took place on Sunday at the barrier at Sevres . About 900 persons were present , aud a place was kept vacant for Louis Blano , who bad attended theno dinners on former occasions . Several representatives of the piopl .,: who bad been , connected with tbe printing business , as well as a number of delegates from all the trades , were present . M . Oorbin , Vice-President of tbe National Assembly , proposed as a toast , ' Success to Compositors and Printers . ' He concluded aa address which he uttered on the occasion with the words * Vive la Bepiiblique Democratique ! ' ' Et Social * , ' said a voice . 'Ei Sosiale' was heard on all sides . I do not think it necessary to employ a pleonasm , ' laid the honourable gentleman , 'as I cannot comprehend a Republic being democratic without bring social . ' . These words were much applauded . A collection In favour of the families of the persons transported closed the proceedings , and the guests separated in the utmost order . <

M'CORMACK AND THE LEDBURY LAND MEMBERS . # The Ledbury branch of the Land Company are informed , that when at Dundee Rome days ago 1 there met the man M'Cormack , who decamped from Ledbury some montha back , taking with him the sum of £ 5 of the Land money belonaini ; to that branch , and that I had him arrested and detained in custody for several houra , on a charge of robbery , but not being myself able to sustain the charge be was liberated . The fellow has been busy in making Chartism , at Dundee , odious and horrible , by the atrocious manner in which he has advocated it , but having been found out as a swindler of the Land Fund , it is not likely tbat the Democrats of Dundee will ever again allow him to take any part in their proceedings . It is the difference of the law in Scot ' and only , that preventa the director , from farther prosecution . Thomas Ciaek .
Schooi. Gardens.—(From The Midland Flori...
Schooi . Gardens . —( From the Midland Florist for October . )— ' In the immediate neighbourhood of Nottingham arc an immense number of email gardens occupied and cultivated by all grades of society ; and with a most laudable and praiseworthy feeling the friends connected with the high-pavemeat Chapel Boys' Sunday School have purchased two of these inolosures , in each of which is a commodious summer-house . One of . these gardens is cultivated by the elder boys , the other by the junior .. Each garden is subdivided into smaller allotments , whioh are assigned to their respective tenants , boys from ten to fourteen years old , who cultivate and crop them according to their own fancy , a small portion of eaoh being devoted to flowers . The diligence and ability displayed by these youthful gardeners is really astonishing . We have inspected tbeir crops during several past summers , and with truth can say we were highly delighted with them . The onions , lettuce ,
celery , carrots , potatoes , <_ c „ were excellent , and would vie with the productions of older and more experienced cultivators . Prize gooseberries are also grown , and this year the crops of London , Companion , Gunner , Eagle , & o ., were amongst the best we have ever seen , either at Nottingham or else . where ; in fact , these boys always endeavour to obtain , either of seeds or plants , tbe best varieties possible . In connexion with these gardens , and to excite emulation , a vegetable and flower show is instituted . This ia held in the school-roems , at Nottingham , and prizes are given for the beat productions in vegetables , as well as for stands of pansies , verbenas , collections of annual and perennial flowers and nosegays , or bouquets , as they are called by some , but we fancy our readers will like the old English name beat . These exhibitions ot youthful skill and industry are well attended . ' —The rules by whioh these school gardens are managed are to be found in the above publication .
The Politioai . victim , Winow , and OnraAH ' s Fund , —The Strand Theatre was , on Friday evening , October 13 th , taken for a benefit , and tho house proved , we are happy to state , a bumper ; and boxes , pit , and gallery beamed with sympathetic faces . Mr Samuel Kydd , previous to tho play , delivered an appropriate prologue , written for tbe occasion , which met with the lond and unanimous approbation of the house . We most heartily congratulate the committee on the success of their appeal ; surely , such au exhibition of sympathy for the victims cannot fail of having its due effect . We understand our East end friends intend taking a benefit at the Royal Standard for the same purpose , on an early day .

ccca-Mon . About a Fortnight ago , aa Mr John Muir , bookbinder , waa taking a walk on the Queen ' s Drive , toward Duddingstone , he was accosted by an Irishman , named William Beat , who presented a pistol at his head , and demanded delivery of his money . Mr Muir having firmly refused compliance , the fellow threatened to search his person , but Mr Muir haying raised his stick to deal him a blow , Best stepped aside and desired him to proceed . When Mr Muir had turned about , Beat discharged the pistol and made off , leaving Mr Muir unscathed . Nothing more was heard or seen of the fellow till a few days ago , when Mr Muir recognised him on the North Bridge , and immediately had him apprehended . A pistol , heavily loaded , and some powder and balls were'found in his pockets , which he says he carried for amusement . He has been remitted for
examination . ; An Oid Thick in a N _ w :. WAYi—Daring thep * eaent week , the following circumstance has , been the general topic of conversation in the village of Horton . On Thursday week ) one of the inhabitants , who has long boasted of superior wit and wisdom , and who , in his trading transactions has always exhibited a considerable degree of jealousy and suspicion , took it into his head to attend the fair which is held annually at Wibsey . He had not been long on the ground before ha wag accosted in a familiar style by a pretended ' old friend , ' who offered him 10 ) . if he weuld purchase for him a horse , which he pointed out to him . The prospect of snugly pocketing the naif-sovereign induced ( hia sapiens ; individual to comply with bis requ ' eat . The : stipulated price'was to be £ 14 , and no more , and after a great deal of
bantering Ihe bargain was struck at tbat sum exactly . The purchaser not being possessed at that moment with the means of paying for it , and his ' friend' not ' being just then at hand , he proceeded to Horton , and borrowed three five pound notes , with which ho proceeded to Wibsey . The horse-dealer waareadily found , and as readily was the money paid . Another man ( evidently an accomplice ) was then requested to go and deliver him the horse , hut upon going to the stable , the animal could nowhere be tound . He then returned to the place where ha had left the hone-dealer , and . discovered tbat he also had decamped . Filled with vexation and chagrin at being thus defrauded of both his horse and the money , he flew to the place where ha had appointed to meet his , ' friend , ' and alas ! to hia additional grief , he found that he also had deceived him , and made himself scarce ; ' and , as a climax to the whole , the sovereign he had received in change out of the notes , - pan examination , turned ont to be a counterfeit , i

In this'evening the vicar announced that there had been some mistake with respect to the notice gives out in the mbrbing , but that the feermon would nevertheless be preached and the collection made . The ' clerk was further ieen afterwards to be looking at a piece of paper ; theieuratf bent over hia desk , and asked if he'bad any notice to

The Cholera. Thb Mbiko.Olis.—The Only Ac...
THE CHOLERA . Thb Mbiko . olis . —The only accounts of new oases of cholera officially reported on Saturday were irom the Thames Police of two sailors just arrived in the River . One was from Sunderland , who waa - tkoked at eight o'clook on Friday evening , and died at h-if-past two in the tneromg ; The other arrived from North Shields . In this case the attack commenced at four o ' clock on Friday , and terminated fatally before' morning . Inquests were held the same day on the b . diea , by Mr Baker the coroner , and a verdict given of ' Visitation of God from Asiatic Cholera . '
Thb M _ tbopdm 9 . —On Tuesday eleven fresh easel of cholera were reported to the Board of Health ai having occurred in the metropolis . In three instances tbe parties are dead ; three cases are returned from the Old Kent read , snd three took place in Southwark on Monday , but were not reported . The results of theae have not yet been s-ated . By the return of the registrar of births and deaths , we karn that the total number of deaths registered during tbe week which ended last Saturday , was very much under the average , namely , 991 . In the last five autumns an average of 1 , 154 deaths having
been registered , leaves a balance in favour of last weak of 163 Two capes only were reported on Wednesday to the General Board of Health . On Tuesday , another convict on board the Justitia died—making nine deaths in all ai . ee the commencement ol the dueiso . There were ao deaths on Wednesday , but Several fresh attacks ; and there . is the utmost difficulty in persuading the men to attend to the first attacks of the disease , many of them having been labouring under diarrhoea for some daya before seeking medical advice . Nothing haa yet been done towards the removal of the convicts from tbe Juatitia .
We have received tho following details of the suo ceajful treatment of a case of cholera from Mr M ' Cann , of Parliament street : —' . The ease occurred in my private practice , and was also visited by the medical commissioner of the Board of Health . Mr-John Cammack , aged 23 , a student of King ' s Col . lege , residing at No . 8 , Surrey-street , Strand , of regular habits , and having all the necessary comforts of lite around him ! w . nt to bed in perfect hea ' thon Wednesday night the 11 th inst ., and slept until six o ' clcck next morning , when he was awakened by a painful aenaation oi twisting and cramps in the atomach and bowels . Those were soon followed by severe purging of a watery fluid . Theera > rpsir > creased , with great prostration , until eight o ' clock ,
when purging to a greater extent returned . The patient of hia own accord called for hot brandy and water , and , as he felt intensely cold , he ordered that afire should be lighted . Being the son cfa medical man and conversant with medicine , he sent out for and had ureoared , a chalk mixture with tincture of opium , of which be took two doses ; theaa , for a time , arrested the purging , but the extreme weakness continued with nausea . At seven o ' clock the same evening he was seized with a severe vomiting , and a burning pain and cramps in the atsmach , and brought uo a large quantity of fluid of a light gruelly colour . The lady , in whoae house he resides , becoming alarmed at the very marked change iu hia appearance sent for me . On ray
arrival , I found him Buffering the moat intense pain with choleric spasm , and bis countenance , preaenting tbat peculiar look which attends cholera ; the puis ? almost imperceptible at the wr ' s : ; the whole body icy cold . I immediately adminis tered the formula of p ills , such as I stated in my evidence before tbe sanitary commissioners , viz ., ca ' omel , 5 grains ; opium , 2 grains ; and a draught , composed of tincture of opium , tinctnre of catechu , tincture of ginger , aromatic spirit of ammonia ( of each 20 ^ minir-s ) , tinctnre of capsicum . 10 minims , and peppermint water , 10 drachms . I then applied mustard pouItice >> to his stomach , and bottles of wa * ter to hia extremities , and ordered frictions , with
extra blankets . Twenty or thirty minutes having elapsed after taking the pill and draught , reaction begah to take place , and he described bis sensation to be tbat of a general glow pervading the system . I repeated the draught twice in the course of the night , and saw him again early in the morning of Friday , when I found him much improved , although his tongue was furred , and other febrile symptomwere beginning to exhibit themselves . The usual remedies for consecutivef ever were resorted to , and the patient , I am happy to say , is nnt of danger , and I trust , in a few days , will be able to resume hia studies . I may add , that on Sunday , the 15 th inat ., I had a similar c _ se , and have adopted the same treatment with equal success . '—Daily News .
The Board of Directors of the General Dispensary , Aldersgate-street , have made arrangements to receive patients at the institution , who will meet witb immediate attention from the medical officers in cases of severe diartbosa . It appears from the return of deaths registered in the metropolis ) during the week ending on Saturday , the 1-th October , that the total number Of deaths from cholera , inolnding , of course , tbe Asi atio form of that fearful malady , has been only thirty .
By this return we learn that the total number of deaths registered during the week , was very much under the average , namely , 991 . In the last five autumns an average of 1 , 154 deaths having been regiatered , leaves a balance in favour of last week of 163 . The arrival of the Aaiatio cholera cannot , there * fore , be said to have as yet added materially to tho bills of mortality , nor , if we look the evil fairly in the face , does it appear to be of such magnitude ¦_ to justify the apprehensions with which its advent has been regarded . Four of the oases of Asiatic cholera occurred on board the hulks off Woolwich , and the whole of the remainder of deaths so described happened either on the river or in the eastern parts of town contiguous to the river . Everything , however , which baa occurred witb respect to tbe appearance of tha disease in this country prove , that there is nothing of a contagieus nature combined with it .
Daring the same week it appears from the return that consumption has killed ninety-six , and typhus fever eighty , and yet these scourges excite co _ jp _ - ratively little of the terror with which cholera ia regarded . Of the thirty eases of cholera reported , all were certified by the respective medical attendants except two . and in five o & aea inquests were held . The particulars of the oases are as follows : r-ln London Hospital , WhiteohapelChurch , M ., 65 years , ' diarrhea * ( 7 days'duration ); Asiatic cholera ( 36 hours ' duration ) .
