Austria Akd Hungary. _ Viessa, Sbp.10.—T...
AUSTRIA AKD HUNGARY . _ Viessa , Sbp . 10 . —The « "Wiener Zeitung' officially confirms the news of the surrender of Peter" WarAein , in the following words : — Ban Jeilachicb announces , on the 6 th inst ., from "Vinkowcze , that the fortress of Peterwardein surrendered on the forenoon of this day to the besieging corps . The Commander of the City . Vienna , Sap . 10 , 1849 . ' The emperor is not yet returned from Dresden . Comoro seems preparing for desperate defence . The garrison amounts to 40 , 000 men , a number which otherwise sounds incredible . Klapka bad issued a proclamation earlier , which declared in favour of surrender ; but no sooner was the division which appears to have broke out between the Austrian and Russian governments known by the besieged , than negotiations were broken off .
Bombardment of Conors . —A letter from Pe & th , dated the 6 ib . inst ., states that hostilities bad probably recommenced at Comoro , as a heavy cannonade bad been heard in that direction , and a number of wounded had arrived from Comoro . The latest news is that Haynau has given orders for the erection oi as many gibbets abeut Comoro , as Le craves victims out of the unyielding garrison ; ana ( he source from which this news comes forbids its se-ng accepted as mere grim jocular invention . Before Coaorn there are , according to the best
sources of information , at this moment 42 , 000 Austrian troops . Concerning the number of the garrison , the report which at first appeared improbable thai it consisted of 40 , 000 men , is more and more confirmed . A great number of dispersed Honveds appear to have found their way thither during the armistice . The most determinated spirit pervades these troops , and it is certain that their present intention is rather , at the end , to blow up the fortress than surrender . AU the arrangements for putting into execution this desperate resolution have already been made .
Letters from Bialo reported that Georgey had passed through that town on the 8 ih , a notice quite at variance with the report of his having passed through Vienna , on his way to Klagenfurt , on tbe 7 th inst . Several executions have recently taken place at Pestb , and among the other sufferers was a priest . Vieska , Sep . 11 . —The great news here is the decided withdraws ! of all the Russian troops immediately . Not a Cossack is to remain in any part of the Anatrain dominions . Galicia , Transylvania ,
all land where the black and yellow nag floats , is to be cleared of Muscovite auxiliaries . The devil has been called in , and has done his work , and now he is sfnt abont his business , perhaps to appear later with bis little account . Of this , I mean tbe retire , ment of the Russians , there can be no doubt ; 7 , 000 troops crossed the Russian frontier from Cracow in a single day ; and all the locomotives on the Silesian audi Polish lines were taken entirely up with tugging back the Russian regiments to whence they came . In less than a month there will not remain a Russian soldier in the Austrian dominions . The seat of
war will be swept cltar of them as a chess-board of the pieces after a game . The AHstrian government lias , on the ground of existing treaties , required Turkey to opnose tbe entrance of tbe Hungarian rebels into her dominion , and to give np all such as are already there , among whom are Denihinski , Kossuth , Perczel , and Me & saros . Bern and Guyon have latterly also taken xefnge in the territory of the Porte , so that all the leading men of tbe Magyars revolution are in the bands of tbe Turks .
Intelligence from Semlm of tbe 5 th states that the Russian General Lovcin had left Belgrade for Turkey on the 3 rd , with the saltan ' s firman , to affect tbe arrest of Kossuth , Dembinski , and 190 other marked persons . 650 Honveds , who were brought to Scmlin , although almost in a state ot Eud / itjj were in no want of money , for a flonved gave iweaty-four imperial ducats for a Turkish cbibuk and mouthpiece . The * Wiener Zeitung * publishes a manifesto of JeHachicu ' s , address to the populations of the united kingdom of Croatia Sclavonia , and the military districts , which is highly eulogistic of the new Austrian constitution , ' a boon , ' says the Ban , that has been received with gratitude by all the provinces of the empire .

T . 'l-vxa , Ses \ 12 . —Legal Murders nr the AvzT & i & s SssFor . —Ai a moment when it is understood that the Austrian government is about to adopt a lenient policy , and to deal mercifully with the prisoners taken in tbe Hungarian war , the colams of the ' Presburg Gazette' are daily filled with such official notices as the following , which appear in tbe latest number : — 'Norhert Auffenburg , native of Debreczin , in Bohemia , aged thirty-six years , of the reformed religion , but formerly a Catholic , married , without children , as lieutenant in Count Leiningen ' s 31 st regiment of line infantry , condemned in the year
1347 for high treason by participation iu the Polish revolution , to incarcerationin irons for fourteen years , and amnestied by the grace of his Majesty last year , entered voluntarily into the ranks of the Hungarian -rebels , was aid-de-camp of Kossuth , and later colonel of the 1 st Jager-corps of the rebellions army . Tbe same having been convicted on the clearest evidence of repeated high treason , was according to the existing laws ' and proclamations , in the court-martial beld Aug . 22 nd , 1849 , condemned to death by banging , and this sentence executed upon him the same day . * By tbe Imperial Royal Court-martial . ' Head quarters , Arad , Aug . 22 , 1849 . '
' Julius Hurby , Knight of Schwanenheim , native of Werscbetz , in the Banat , twenty-three years oi age , Catholic , single , upper lieutenant of the imperial Kaiser Ferdinand L , Hussar regiment , has , by tbe support of the Hungarian rebels with armed band , incurred the guilt of high treason , and having been on this account , after establishment of the facts , unanimously condemned by the court-martial beld on the 20 th of August , 1849 , according to the existing laws and proclamations , in addition to tbe confiscation of his property and loss of his lieutenant ' s commission to suffer death by powder and lead , ibis sentence was executed upon him the same day . By the Imperial Royal Court-martial . « Temesvar , Aug . 20 , 1849 /
Samuel Murmann , native of Oedenburg in Hungary , aged thirty-two years , Evangelical lieutenantcolonel , on half-pay in the Imperial Royal service , went over to the ranks of tbe rebels , and took part in the insurrection . The same having been convicted of high treason , was unanimously condemned , by tbe court martial held on August 25 th , in addition to tbe confiscation of fats property and loss of his commission , to suffer death by powder and lead , which sentence was executed on him tbe same day . ' By the Imperial Court Martial . ' Temesvar , Aug . 25 , 1849 .
Vibhna , Sept . 13 . —Tbe following impoitant particulars concerning the sew organisation of the Hungarian army are gathered from a good source . Henceforth there will be no Hungarian regiments . All the Hungarian soldiers and officers , from colonel downwards , will be emptied into the Austrian army as privates , and dispersed throughout tbe same , so as to lose their nationality as much as possible . The officers will be , as far as that is possible , German . The same system will be pursued towards other nationalities .
More Murders . —The Hungarian mails cease not to bring daily the accounts of fresh executions . The last news of this kind is the shooting of the brave CoL Kiss , the Commandant of Peterwardein , and Gen . Lenkey , formerly Commandant of Comoro , who were sent prisoners to Arad . This intelligence is not , however , yet confirmed from official sources . Two very remarkable letters of Arthur Georgey , which form valuable historical documents , have been published ia the * Oesterreicbisehe Correspondent . ' The srst of these is addressed from Arad on the 11 th of August , to the Russian General Rudiger , to whom two days later he surrendered unconditionally . The second letter written from Grosswardein on Aug . 16 th , to Klapka , is undoubtedly the most valuable documents which has been published upon tbe bitter events of the war . In it two main facts are
brought out which throw the strongest light npon the personal schism between Georgey on the one tand , and Kossuth and bis Polish friend on the other . Kossuth is accused of havingsecretly appointed Bern to be commander-in-chief , while his answer to the diet ' s motion , naming Georgey for that office , was so evasive as to lead them to suppose that be bad Complied witb this proposal . Then again , Dembinski ' s extraordinary move in retreating to Temesvar , * fortress garrisoned by the enemy , instead of Arad , is attributed to jealousy of him ( Georgey . )
Adrices from Bucharest ^ of the 4 th , announce the trreitofBemby the Russians . A report to the same effect from the Russian authorities at Bucharest bad reached Cronstadt ; adding that Bern had escaped from the Turks , who prohably were glad to be relieved of all responsibility , and caught oa the

Wallachian territory . This intelligence require 3 official confirmation . A letter from Acs , of September 10 , inserted in the' Soldaten Freund , ' says that the aggressive has again been taken up before Comoro , and a general advance of troops in order on Dotis , Pupta-Ezem and Herkaly , and the Acs forest ; then in Schutte Major to Sz-Pal and Ujfafa . All this took place without oppasition being made . In like manner Pott ' s brigade pushed on to Ekel and Koszegfalva . The Russian general ( Grabbe ) has a concentrated position between the Waag and ( he Danube , on the table-land of Heieny , facing Comoro , while the Cossacks do the outpost duty . Klapka has released all Russian prisoners . The state of siege has been removed from Trieste and the Istrian coast .
In compliance with the demands o the Porte , the Austrian government has prohibited the exportation of arms and munition along the Croatian and Sclavonian frontier , in order that the Bosnian insurgents ma ; be deprived of this resource .
GERMANY . PRUSSIA . —Berlin , Sept . 12 . —The news of the Grand puke Michael ' s death has reached us todav from Warsaw . The first answer to tbe categoric question , put latterly by Prussia to the German governments , whether they will adhere or not to the league of the three kings , has been received from Bavaria . The cabinet of Munich has met the Prussian proposal with a direct negative . The death of the Grand Duke Michael has affected the czar deeply . The violence with which the emperor has been snatched suddenly from the excess of joy to extreme grief , has lent more than ever a
countenance of reality to those fears which have been latterly entertained , lest the reason of this extraordinary sovereign should give way . The violence with which the symptoms of his grief burst out was equal to the extravagance with which be manifested the opposite sentiment , upon bearing of the decided successes of Russian arms in Hungary . The physicians exhausted the resources of their art to tame the furious expression of the passion of sorrow which dominated this overgrown will . Only by the continued application of ice to his head during a whole night could the Emperor be calmed ; or rather , but for this remedy , it was tbe opinion of bis medical attendants that he would have fallen a victim to tbe same malad y which struck his brother .
Berlin , Sept . 14 . —The Prussian special envoy that was sent to Warsaw , has brought back such accounts of his interviews with tbe Czar , as have produced a most painful impression upon the mind of the King . The tone of the Russian autocrat was exceedingly barsb and haughty . He disapproved of the steps taken by the Prussian government in the matter of the Bundestaat in terms of arrogant displeasure , which have , been deeply galling to royal sensibility at Berlin . It seems that the Czar refused
to listen to tbe representations made to him of the inevitable necessity of these steps in consequence of the unconciliatory conduct of Austria . He recognised no urgent ground whatever for the concessions in favour of popular institutions , which had been made by Prussia , and condemned unequivocally tbe draft of a German constitution drawn up at Berlin . Finally , his mood was most ungracious , and he said several things which were deeply wounding to the King . Nevertheless , on General Neumann he was pleased to bestow the order of tbe While Eagle .
The Russian losses have been considerable in Hungary , insomuch that a new recuitratnt of ei ghteen to the thousand has been proclaimed . All who ate not * adscript ! g lebaj , ' all who can get out of the way of this galling conscription , fly . The Russian proprietors have their incomes pared prodigiously by these levies , for every man is worth to them as much as the slave to the planter . Large dispersion of troops will be necessary to carry this oppressive
measure into execution . The court of Berlin go intarneurning for fourteen days for the Grand Duke Michael . This prince was remarkable for a singular union of brutality and kindness . The same man , who would put under arrest for a deficient button or a wry stock , and visit pipe-clay peccadilloes , with intemperate personal abuse as well as punishment spent a princel y fortune in pensions to poor retired officers and theirfamilies .
To-day the Chambers did not meet . The next steps of the government on tbe German question are awaited with impatience . The attitude of the democratic party on this subject is apparently passive , but really a great hindrance , for their present aim is to play into the hands of the Russian parly whom they wish if possible to bring into power , feeling sure that after General Geriach ; revolution has once more a chance . Hamburg , Sep . 17—It has been decided by the commission in Schleswig to refuse tbe Schleswig . Holstein paper-money as payment for taxes—the decree says ' till further arrangements . ' The natural consequence of such refusal will be , that the
commission receives no taxes at all , the paper-money will be taken as hitherto in mercantile and other transactions , and tbe commission will become bankrupt by its own act . The merchants and dealers ia the different towns of the duchy have declared to take such paper-money as payment . The order of the regency of the 18 th October , 1848 , by which Danish vessels are treated as unprivileged in the Schleswig-Holstein harbours , has been annulled by the commission , likewise tbe payments to the compulsory loan of May 2 nd , 1849 ; most of these have been made , and are in the hands of the regency . The campaign against the civil officers goes on . The city of Husura has been threatened with a fine of 2 , 000 dollars , to receive M . Davids as burgomaster .
Troops are sent to Tonning and Fridrichstadt to introduce the new civil officers there , and to force the old ones to send their cash to the central office in Flensburg . Eckernforde is certain to receive a similar visit , for the authorities there refused to deliver their cash to such office . M . Wiggers , customhouse-officer , in Flensburg , has thrown up his office * He was to alter the Schleswig-Holstein arms on board the Schleswig vessels , which he refused . The redoubts' near Dnppeln , which were to remain untouched during the armistice , have been destroyed by disguised Danish soldiers from Alsen , the few Schleswig police officers were obliged to run away , and the Prussian troops did nothing to prevent such demolition .
FRANKFORT . —The'Cologne Gazette , ' of the 16 th , gives the following , under the date of the 14 th , from its Frankfort correspondent : — « The proposals of the Vienna cabinet have already reached Berlin . Austria and Prussia are each to appoint two members , and Austria is to preside . In cases of difference that cannot he settled by themselves , tbe governments of the other four German kingdoms , in their turn , are to decide as arbiters . '
DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES , The question of tbe flags and marks to be carried by-Schleswig vessels , so as to enable them to enter ports under the same advantages as Danish vessls , has been settled , in a certain degree satisfactorily to the Schleswic ers ; inasmuch as a second decree of the commission relative to the subject orders that ships shall carry tbe Danish flag , but that the Schleswig arms , with the two lions , shall be worked in upon the upper part of the field , close to the staff . This interim flag will entitle to the privileges of tbe meat favoured nations having treaties with Denmark , and the same rights as Danish vessels in Danish ports .
FRANCE . Paris , Satbrda . y , —One department only has demanded , through the organ of the con & eik generaiix that tbe constitution should immediately be revised . This wish has been put forward by too few amongst the mass of the French people to render it possible that any weight can attach to it , but it must be remarked that the department that has signalised itself by put . ting forth an eccentric desire , is that of the Gironde , which in the old revolution furnished so many remarkable men to the Constituent Assembly . M . de Tocqueville has protested in energetic Ianguage against tbe bastinadoes of Milan .
The circumstances under which M . Fnret , the editor of a republican journal , was conducted from brigade to brigade , chained like a felon , to take his trial at Ronen for a political offence , are nothing in comparison to the treatment to which has been sub-JectedM . Collett , a person who was arrested on the 2 oth of July last , on the presumption of a political offence . This man was tranimitted from Paris to Dijon on foot , and from brigade to bri gade , chained to criminals condemned to the galleys . He underwent this punishment for forty-five days , and reached Dijon on the 4 th of September . On his arrival , and after remaining two or three hours at Dijon , he was set free , without an explanation being given as to the reasons of bis arrest . Government has ordered aninquiry .
M . Foucault , responsible editor of the' Gazette de France , ' appeared yesterday before the juge d'in . traction , and was told that , in wnjiquen . ee of the
Austria Akd Hungary. _ Viessa, Sbp.10.—T...
publication of an article by M . Retny , recommending an appeal to the people ( for which article tbe journal was seized ) , he would be prosecuted on the charge of exciting to hatred and contempt of the republican government . Paris , Sunday . —It seems that , after all . the resignation of General Rostolan will not be accepted . General Randon ' s protestantism is said not to be the real cause of his non-departure to Rome . Gen . Changarnier , when be beard of the nomination , opposed it energetically , and it was then that the lucky chance turned up , and it was found out that General Randon was a protestant . M . de Falloux ' s illness is bad enough to cause the gazetting this morning of M . Lanjuinais in the interim of his ministry .
M . Andre , a barrister , against whom a warrant had been issued on the 14 th of June , and who bad evaded the pursuit of the police , was arrested on Saturday at the Barrier of the Chopinette , and placed at the disposal of the Attorney-General of the High Court of Justice . M . Andre was a member of the Committee of Twenty . five , who replaced the Socialist Committee after the last general elections . The Court of Cassation has ordered that , to prevent disturbances , the trial of the persons concerned in the entente which took place at Montlucon in June last , shall be tried by the Court of Assise of Kiora , instead of by that of the departm ent of the AUier , in which Montlugon is sitaate . The accused in the outbreak of Albi are , for the same reason , to be tried by the Court of Assize of Tarn-et-Garonne , instead of that of Toulouse .
Paris , Monday . —The Expedition xa Morocco . —Letters from Toulon , of the 13 th , state that the French fleet , which had weighed anchor on the Utb , and was ready to sail , had been countermanded , had again anchored in the roads , and the troops and military stores on board landed . M . Merrier , Secretary , of Legation , who has been several times employed on mission * to Rome , was despatched oh Sunday morning to that city with fresh instructitmaito General J & atol & n , who remains in command of the army .. TThe health of M . de Falloux is . improving under the care of Doctors Recamier and Blache .
The Attorney-General bas'ordered the' Almanack du People' for tbe year 1850 to be seized , and the editor prosecuted for haying published an attack against property , and excited the hatred of one class of citizens against the other . Several arrests were made at Lyons on the 15 th for political causes .. A clandestine manufactory of gunpowder has been seized at Toulouse , in the house of an operative machinemaker , who has been arrested and committed to prison .
The President of the Repnblic , on the proposition of the Minister of the Interior and by the advice of the Comrnis > ion ties Mises en Liberie , has ordered the release of 225 of the insurgents of June , 1848 , confined in the pontoons of Brest , Cherbourgh , and L'Orient . In consequence of this release there are now no more insurgents in the naval establishment at L'Orient . Pakis , Tuesday . —There was a council of ministers heldtQ « day at the Elysee , at which M . O . Barrot was present . Despatches received from Rome were laid before it , the substance of which generally was , that the pope was ready to accede to the desire expressed in the president ' s letter to M . Edgar Ney ; but that , if the French government urged their demands with the least appearance of force or coercion , he would again draw back .
Letters from Naples , received from our corres pondent there , under date the 10 ib inst ., state that the greatest anxiety was visible amongst the Camarilla at Portici at the attitude of France , and our correspondent himself expresses tbe f ear that Pius will stick out against diplomacy which cannot do anything . The Pope has already been from Portici to Naples once , to be present at a religious ceremony . The [ accounts given of . M . de Falloux ' s health were not altogether so favourable last evening as
the day before . He was seized during the day with a shivering fit , afterwards followed by fever . A warm bath was then prescribed , -which gave him re lief . He is to be removed to the country as soon as his strength will permit the fatigue . The' Evenement * states that the illness of M . de Falloux is a nervous intermittent fever . * It is certain , ' adds the ' Evenment / 'that M . de Falloux will not retire from office before the discussion in the assembly , in which he will defend the line of policy that he has pursued , '—Daily News .
Wednesday . —A case entirely similar to that in which Mr . More O'Ferrall has made himself conspicuous has occurred at Ancona . Four vessels arrived there the other day with 800 refugees from Venice ; they were refused an entrance there , and went on to Pescova . The Neapolitan authorities there refused to allow them to land , and the unfortunates returned in a state of destitution and famine to Ancona , where they arrived on the I Ith . They were again refused an entrance , and have been sent back to Venice .
SWITZERLAND . We have news from Berne to the 12 th inst . The federal council has determined that all the refugees who have figured as chiefs of movements in Germany shall leave the territory of the confederation within three days . Other refugees also are comprised in this measure . France allows them to pass through her dominions . The refugees who are at Geneva will thus be sent away . The' Suisse' of Berne says , that , according to the latest accounts , the Austrian troops on the Vorarlberg only amounted to 10 , 000 men , most of whom were in barracks . This was an answer to the exaggerated statement of the 'Deutsche Zeitung . ' It is admitted , however , that the Austrian garrisons on the frontiers of the canton of Tessin are on the
increase . The Swiss government has ordered the expulsion of Heinzen , Struve , Brentano , and Mierolawski , chiefs of tbe insurrection of the Grand Duchy oi Baden . They have the choice of passing through France , or going to Genoa .
ITALY . ROME . —Accouuts of the 6 th mention the arrival of M . M . De Rayneval at Rome , with hopes that an accomodation was possible with the Pope , who was broug ht to make several important concessions in the sense of the old Statute . But the Code Napoleon still stuck in the throat of his Holiness . Pius has created Cardinal Oudinot Duke of San Pancrazio , and has pensioned him . The' Nazionale' of Florence , of the 7 tb , states , with all possible reserve , that it has received letters by express from Rome , announcing that the military commandant has definitively taken the power of the stats into his own hands , and deposed the cardinals . The ' Nazionale' of Florence of the 8 th inst .
publishes the following letters from Rome : — ' I have politico-theatrical news to give you . The singer , Madame Rebussini , had been loudly applauded for some time past by the French who crowd the Argentina Theatre . The rondeau of Marino Faliero one evening excited the most enthusiastic applause , in tbe midst of -which a French captain threw a bouquet on the stage from his box . Thesiuger did not pick it up , but as soon as she bad retired behind the scenes she sent a servant to pick it up ; she reappeared afterwards , but without the bouquet . The French officers were offended at this , and resolved upon revenge for the affront . The
next evening the theatre was nearly full of French ; there were only about 100 Romans in the pit , and very few in the boxes , which bad almost all been taken by tbe French . Alter the rondeau the bouquet as before fell before . the feet of the singer , who made her exit without picking it up . Immediately the French drew whistles from their pockets , and commenced a most terrific concert mingled with cries of'Take the bouquet ! ' All the Romans who . were in the theatre , on the contrary , applauded and cried , 'Bravo ! bravo ! no ! no ! Show them our sympathy ! ' At last the Romans , seeing that the French officers persisted , left the theatre ; the French desifted , and the act of'Columella ' began . About fifty Romans then re-entered , when the French
recommenced their clamours ; a Roman then exclaimed , ' Let all Italians leave the place ! ' But instructions had been given to the gendarmes who were at the door , and who prevented the Roman * from leaving . Meanwhile some French officers , having taken the s tage by assault , forced the singer to appear with he bouquet , the cause of so much tumult . Madame Rebussini appeared pale and dishevelled , with tears in her eyes ; she held the bouquet in her left hand . The French then loudl y applauded , in the midst of the whistles of the . Romans , and of the violent apostrophes they had addressed to the singer who had been weak enough lo give way . This little history , for the present , has had no further consequences . '

State with a deliberative voice in internal affairs , partial amnesty , and payment of all the paper ROME —The * Piedmontese Gazette' of the 10 th instant says , in a letter from Rome , dated the 8 th instant , that the ultimatum of the French , government had been reduced to the following demands : Council of state with a deliberative voice m internal affairs , partial amnesty , and payment of all the paper money . ¦ . ... . , , _ , „ . of Florence . . ..,.,,.
A letter from Rome , in the' Nazionale' , states that the director of the Argentina theatre had been obliged to close it on account of the late disturbance about Mme . Rebussini , but that the theatre was to be re-opened on the 8 th . Great ill-feeling , according to this letter , existed at Rome between the French and the-Romans . Thus at the theatre Valle , in a new piece , one of the actors having a pun calculated to cast ridicule upon the inconstantcbaracter of the French people , the public encored it with
frantic enthusiasm . * The 'Riforma' of Lucca , of the 10 th , states that the Holy Father intends taking up his residence at Benevento , after the festival of Pie de Grotta . Letters from Leghorn of the 9 th announce the arrival there of twenty-four of Garibaldi ' s men . The famous priest Maineri is of the number . The Concordia' of Turin contains the followimj from Rome , Sept . 17 s—* Several Spanish soldiers lately entered a house at Zagarolo , in order to carry
off a young woman . Her husband defended her some time , but at last , seeing that resistance was vain , he killed her with his own band . Several peasants , attracted by the noise , hastened to the spot , while more Spaniards came to the assistance of their comrades . A fray ensued , in which the peasants had the worst of it ; three of them . were seized and shot on the spot . Since this event , Zagarolo has become a desert , every one having retired to the country to avoid similar scenes . '
Things are still going on unsatisfactorily—wholesale arrests take place without the observation of legal forms , and are effected by sbirri frequently in plain clothes . Tbe ' Concordia' of Turin quotes a letter from Genoa of the 12 tb , stating that it being known that Garibaldi was to leave for Nice on the 11 th on board tbe San Giorgio steamer , crowds assembled at the port , and many persons occupied boats for the purpose of seeing and cheering him . The boats had
been in waiting for upwards of an hour around the steamer when she suddenly had her steam up , and moved towards the mouth of tbe port . On being questioned , the sailots declared that Garibaldi was not on board . Before leaving the port , however , she stopped ; a boat left the St . Michael frigate , and approached the steamer . The people in the boats , perceiving this , cried : ' There ' s Garibaldi 1 make haste , ply your oars ! Vive Garibaldi ! ' But before they could reach the steamer she had resumed her course , and they only arrived in time to learn that Garibaldi was really on board of her .
Ancona , Sept . 10 . —There is at present a gamson of about 1 , 500 men here , commanded by Gen . Pfanzelter , and consisting of part of the Hohenlohe regiment , with detachments of artillery and Hungarian cavalry . Martial law still prevails , and an unfortunate wretch was shot a fortnight ago under a combination of most horrible circumstances . It appears that his wife , in order to indulge more freely in an intrigue in which she was engaged , resolved to get rid of her husband by concealing a musket
( belonging to her son ) in his room , and then denouncing him to the military authorities . A search was made , the gun was found , and the presumed culprit was immediately shot . His son , however , struck with remorse , gave himself up as the real offender in having the gun , in his possession , . and revealed the plot of his mother . The commandant was rather puzzled what to do , as one man bad already been shot * , but be ordered both mother and son to be well bastinadoed meanwhile . At the third
blow on the stomach the woman died , and SO tbe tragedy ended . SARDINIA . —The 'Concordia ' of Turin , of the 10 th , adds some particulars to these alread y known concerning Garibaldi . His wife , it appears , really died from fatigue , in a state of pregnancy , on the sea-coast , after landing to escape from the attack of the Austrian fleet , as our readers will remember . The peasants sent to Ravenna for a physician , but he came too late to save her .. Garibaldi , after this heavy blow , wandered for thirty-five days , under different disguises , in the fields , among the woods and mountains of the Appenines , sleeping by day , and travelling by night , sometimes a guest at the
table of the Croatian , at other times walking unheeded among the very men sent to apprehend him ; till , at last , having crossed the Tuscan Maremme , he succeeded in embarking in a fishing boat , and in the disguise of a fisherman arrived at Chiavari . The intendant had the simplicity to ask him for his passport , legalised by the Sardinian Consul ! Garibaldi unhesitatingly gave him a passport which a fr . end had forced upon his acceptance , and observed that he bad unfortunately met with no Sardinian Consul in the forests and ravines which he had crossed . Our readers know the rest . At Genoa Garibaldi inhabits an apartment belonging to the
questor , where both he and his companion , Captain Leggero , who had served under him in America , are treated with every mark of consideration , though in fact they are under a sMof arrest . —This arrest has caused a fierce scene in the Chamber of Deputies at Turin . Liberal orators demanded his immediate liberation . Pinelli , the minister , pleaded that Garibaldi by taking service under the Roman Republic , had ceased to be Piedmontese ! He could thus be treated as an alien . In despite of this mean and beggarly defence the chamber voted that tbe arrest of Garibaldi was an outrage on the rights of a citizen , and an insult to the Italian nation .
A letter from Genoa of the 11 th inst . states that Garibaldi had heeu p laced on board the frigate Saint Michael , to be conveyed to Nice , his native plaee . NAPLES , Sept . 10 . —The King , who has shut himself up from public gaze for hearty eighteen months , appeared in the streets on the 8 th , to celebrate the great national /*?*/** of Piedigrotfa . It was a well-chosen moment for the appearance of his Majesty , since the whole of the road on the present occasion ( as is usual , ) from the royal palace to the church , at the extreme end of the Cbiaja , was lined with soldiers , and beyond this every precaution had
been taken by the police , who obliged the owners of houses to give a list of the company they expected to witness the fete . Some few arrests took place on the occasion ; buildings were examined , drains searched , and every possible means taken to protect hia Majesty from the assassin . The cortege passed with solemn pace down the Chiaja , and his Majesty having received tbe benediction of the church , tbe pious pageant returned , without any unusual mani . festation of enthusiasm . Many families had left Naples expressly to avoid the show . Domiciliary visits of the police were attempted on the apartments ( British subjects , but ; in most instances , very properly resisted .
VENICE . —By a decree of General Garzkowski dated Venice , the 31 st ult ., the province of Venice is restored to its former limits , and the political adtavntttmioii of the districts comprised in th m again belongs to the provincial delegation of Venice . The Swiss Consul at Venice has delivered passports to the refugees who from that city desired to seek a refuge in Switzerland . They are about 150 in . number , and have in general sufficient means to live upon . The Federal Council consents to receive them , but reserves to itself the ri ght to place them in towns in the interior of the country if it thinks fit . —Timet . .
The Free Harbour of Venice now extends no further than the borders of the island of St . Georgio Maggiore . Goods warehoused elsewhere must be removed to within the limits within three months , or they will have to be introduced for consumption and pay the import duty . —Daily News . Tbiuste . —Six shiploads of refugees from Venice arrived here a week ago , but General Pfanzelter peremptorily refused to let them land . Two of them died during the passage , but , on examining their bodies , the surgeons decided that their malady was not cholera , as was at first apprehended . The refugees received their clearances for Corfu and Pedracca , a little port on the Neapolitan coast . At the former place they will certainly not be received , and will most likel y be repulsed also from the latter , England or Turkey will then probabl y be the destination of these political outcasts
INSURRECTION AT CORFU . The Vienna paper of the 14 th inst . contains tbe following later particulars of the insurrection at Corfu . t The last accounts from Cephalonia represent the insurrection as on the increase . On the 2 nd a steamer returning from that island to Corfu brought news that the number of troops sent was too small to produce any effect , and that the appearance of so insufficient a force had emboldened more than dismayed the rebels , The Lord Commissioner repaired in person , with reinforcements , to the scene of the outbreak , whither all disposable troops from Zante

were also sent . It seems that Mr . Ward had a narrow escape , a soldier having been shot at his side . The courts-martial are in full swing : seven insurgents have been shot and banged , and four more are . to « raorrow to suffer the same fate . The government of the Ionian isles has allowed the debarcation of the ; Venetian emigrants Manin , Tomasco , and others , which arrived by the French steamer Pluto ; but on account of the prevalence of cholera in Venice all passengers from thence were subjected to a quarantine of twelve days . 1 .- ..,., n .. amp that Mr . Ward had a
The Lord Commissioner , in a note to the French consul , expressed the willingness of the government on this occasion to make an exception in favour of the refugees ; but that , as a general rule , fugitives would not be allowed to land , on account of the small force present in the islands to remedy any mischief that might arise from tbe agitation of such dangerous guests . Tomasco and Manin were going to London , Pepe to Paris ; many of tbe others to Constantinople and Alexandria , but tbe majority remain in Greece .
MALTA . The Roman Refwgbes . —Sept . 8 . —The poor Roman auxiliaries are still in quarantine , supported by the benevolence of private individuals . A few pounds from some of the numerous London committee , in aid of foreign refugees , would be well applied to the unfortunates now lingering out their wretched existence in our quarantine harbour . — Daily News .
AMERICA . The Royal mail steam-ship Canada , Captain J udkins , arrived at Liverpool on Monday afternoon . AU fears for the safety of the Hibernia are at an end . The following is a report of the accident which befell that vessel :-On the 31 st ultimo , the Hibernia was proceeding towards Halifax at low speed , the weather being foggy . She had a sea pilot on board , and at six a . m . received a harbour pilot , under whose charge she was then placed , and continued to proceed on the same reduced speed . At 6 . 30 a . m . she struck on Chebucto Head rocks , and sprang a leak forward . The engines were
immediately reversed , and the ship trimmed by the stern . At 6 . 55 tbe port anchor and fifteen fathoms of chain cable were dropped under foot , and she was backed off , and proceeded up the harbour to her station . After undergoing repairs she resumed her voyage on the following day with her passengers and the mails . On the 4 th inst . she experienced unfavourable weather , which caused her to labour heavily , and the leak to increase to three feet an hour by nine a . m ., up to which time her four bilge pumps , with the aid of one injection every hour for eight minutes kept her free ; she bad now increased nine inches in fifteen minutes upon the four bilge pumps , being at the rate of three feet per hour , as above stated . Circumstances having rendered it necessary to use the injection for ten
minutes every quarter of an hour , an attempt was made to place a thrummed foresail over the leak , but it was unsuccessful . A consultation was then held bstween the Admiralty agent , her commander , and the cbief engineer , who having maturely considered the imminent risk of continuing on her course , agreed upon the urgent necessity of bearing up for Halifax , where she arrived at 5 . 20 a . m . on the 7 th . —On the 8 th inst ., at 3 . 30 a . m ., the Canada arrived from New York , and after having taken on board her own mails and those of the Hibernia , proceeded on her voyage to England , at six o ' clock the same morning . —A meeting of the passengers by the Hibernia was held after her return to HalifaK , and a series of resolutions were passed , exculpating Capt . Stone from all blame , and expressing the greatest confidence in the officers and crew .
Our accounts by the Canada are fourteen days later . The subject of most interest is tbe anticipated insurrection and invasion of Cuba . This matter has assumed more consistent proportions , the time fixed for the denoument having arrived . A fortnight since Colonel White , with 400 or 500 . of his followers , went from New Orleans to Round Island which lies off the mouth of Pascagoula River , not far from Mobile , to wait for the time of sailing . There is no . doubt the government has more thorough information of their scheme . The assemblage under Colonel White at Round Island had been ordered off by the naval officer commanding in that vicinity ,
and at New York the sailing of the corps had been delayed nearly a week by unexpected hindrances We understand that the expedition is to consist of 1 , 500 men , who are to land upon a part of Cuba where there are no troops to oppose them . Once landed they will proclaim a provisional government , those among the people and the troops who are favourable to their cause will join them ; with the increase of their numbers they will move forward ; and , lastly , if all goes according to their anticipations , drive the Spanish government from the island , proclaim it a free and independent state , and take the measures necessary to establish a Republican Constitution and government .
CANADA . From Canada we have no news of special interest . A new paper is about to be undertaken there for the express object of advocating the independence of the British North American Colonies , with a view to ultimate annexation to the United States . Everything was perfectly tranquil . Lord Elgin visited Montreal on the 2 nd . Messrs . La Fontaine and Merritt were at Halifax on a mission touching customs reform . The verdict of the jury on the body of Mason , killed in the attack on La Fontaine ' s house , reprehended the neglect of precautions by the authorities .
• Five hundred houses are vacant at Montreal , and rents have fallen considerabl y . Many labouring people are finding their way to " the United States , not being able to get employment in Canada . ' Montreal , August 31— The opinion is becoming general that differential duties will be im . posed on American goods , unless the government of the United States will continue to reciprocity in navigation-laws .
THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE . In consequence of the resolute opposition evinced at the Cape against the government plan for the intraduction of convicts into that colony , it has , we believe , been determined to send out further instructions for the guidance of Sir Harry Smith under the existing emergency . The following extracts from the Cape Town papers , received by the Inflexible , will put eur readers in possession of the proceedings of the colonists , as well as of the measures adopted by the governor to allay the popular excitement : — ( From the < Zuid Afrikaan , ' July 12 . ) On Tuesday , July 12 th , eontrary to expectation , tbe Legislative Council met for the transaction of business .
The Governor stated that the vacancies which had occurred by the resignation of Messrs . Ross and Harris , and by tbe decease of Mr . Van der Byl , had been filled up—the persons appointed being Jacob Lettemedt , Pieter Laurens Cloete , and Abraham de Smidt . The seat of Mr . Ebden , who has also resigned , remains open . A report having gone abroad that Messrs . Let . terstedt , Cloete , and De Smidt had refused to accept the seats offered to them , in deference to the popular wish , the very large concourse of people present on the above occasion were not a little staggered and indignant at their appearance to take the usual oath and assume their seats ; the consequence of which was , that , prior to , and at tbs conclusion of the sitting they were thoroug hly and continually hissed .
On the announcement of an adjournment , the audience withdrew , and gathered in the yard , in front of the council-room , where , after a short while , his Excellency , the Governor , made his appearance , leaning on the arm of his aide-de-camp , followed by some other gentlemen , amongst whom , were the now unofficial creatures . His Excellency saluted the crowd by « How are you all , gentlemen ? I am glad to see you ; my heart is with you . Depend upon it , that m all my measures , I aim at your welfare . ' This called forth a universal sbout of approbation , but was at the same time the signal for
renewed hisses , cries , and shouts , attended by a general shoving , thumping , kicking of the three new officials . Laurens Cloete made his eicane , after being rather roug hly handled abont tbe posteriors . Abraham de Smidt took shelter in tbe office of the Central Road Board , and Jacob Letterstedt in the council-room . After the latter had remained here for a considerable time , he was attended to the street by the Attorney-General , and accompanied to his office in Plein-street , by Messrs . Lynar and Fitzpatrick . A very large crowd followed him / and he was incessantl y hissed athootedand thrown at
, , with mud and other missiles . " Hence , * few persons proceeded to tbe Heerengracht , and , accidentally meeting Mr . Ebden , they immediately stopped , and three loud and long cbeero at once collected a crowd of about 2 , 000 persons . They now proceeded down the Heerengracht , and when arrived at Mr . Robertson ' s , a chair was procured , upon which Mr . Ebden was put and carried to the Commercial Hall ,

where he was placed on the table . The cheers now were most deafening . " Silence was at length pro . cured , and , after tbe spectators had been addressed by Mr . Ebden , sen ., Mr . Sutherland , and Mr . Ad . vocate Ebden , the crowd separated , after having again and again cheered the worthy patriot for h « manly resolve to resign his situation , and thus cut off all connexion with a government incapable to protect its own honour , Up to tbe 16 th inst . the colonists were led to believe that they had to grapple with civil convicts only ; but , lo ! by mere accident , it was discovered that military convicts from Hongkong were to be transported to this colony , and then came the blue where he was placed on the table .

book , which told them that they would have to receive those from the Mauritius also . We shall not dwell upon the unwarrantable proceeding of Earl Grey in telling Sir Harry Smith , in his despatch q { the 10 th of September 1848 , that convicts from the Mauritius only would be sent , and then , a few day * af terwards , ordering theGevernor of Hongkong to sent " the convicts thence also . We desire to come to the fact that Earl Grey , in his subsequent despatch 0 { the 2 nd of March , 1849 , thought nothing of again violating his promise of the 10 th of September 1848 , and ordered , that all white soldiers from ' Ceylon and the East Indies , should also be trasported to this colony—in fact , making this country the cesspool of moral corruption .
What is most strange , however , is , that when the dacuments relative to the convict question generall y were laid on the council-table on the 20 th of j u | y last , Sir Harry very pertinently asked Mr . Montagu , whether all ( papers ) were there , as he would have no secrets or mysteries in his Government ; and this , mark , in the face of the fact , that the military despatch with the reply , for the first time published in the' Gazette' of Thursday last , had then been ia his possession for a space of twenty-eight days . '
In an official notice dated Jul y 25 tb , and signed John Montagu , Secretary to the Government , his Excellency says , that' he entertains no reasonable doubt whatever , that it will be within his power , in point of law , to delay the landing of the convicts expected by the Neptune until her Majesty ' s pleasure shall be known . ' The notice concludes with the assurance that his Excellency will not land them pending the announcement of her Majesty ' s pleasure in regard to the whole question , respecting which her subjects of this colony are at present filled with so much anxiety and alarm .
