To the very great credit of M. FAUCHER and M. BAROCIIY, when they were chiefs of the administra tion during the French republic, the cabinet of the Elate forbade Pr:noe SCHWARZENBERO to empl o y military force against Switzerland. Both these statesmen were conservative enough, it is well known, and were ready to go every legal length to pit down socialism and sedition. But an invasion and occupation of the southern or eastern cantons of Switzerland by an Austrian force, were things, moan. pealed by French troops in Lausanne and Geneva,that the party of order under the republic would not hear of. Prince SCHWARZENBERG has now other French ministers to deal with than Messrs. Faeculat. and BAROCIIK. And he proposes the Austrian occupa tion of the cantons of Tessin and St. Gall. If the Tessin is remarkable fur any thing more than the richness of its scenery and soil, it is for being the seat of a liberal school of catho licism, which admits of the greatest amount and development of edu-ation. Still this does not much affect the policy of the cantonal government, one, more in •he hands of wealthy and influential inhabitants, whose chief aim is to avoid giving any cause of quarrel to its powerful neigh bour. 'thus poiitical refugees from Lombardy of any note or importance are not allowed to Inhabit the towns of the Tessin. In the days of NlErritrown, the Lombard exiles might Mill enjoy the sky . of Italy at Lucano or Lugano. Now, that is denied t he m. Nor is the Tessin press without a certain restrain', self im posed, perhaps, but still affording Austria no legiti mate ground of complaint. One thing, indeed, the government of the Tessin refuses to do. It will not deliver up Austrian deserters who once reach its shores or get within its frontier. The Austro-Tessin frontier is indeed so closely watched by Croats, that it is difficult for any soldier to escape that way. They generally fly into Piedmont. But as the Pied asontese government is mean enough to give them they make their way round by the Lake Maggiore into the Tessin. The cantons failing is the desired obsequiousness on points like these, Austria would enforce its demand. And of course its first act would bo to set up a retrograde govern• sent in the Tessin, whose voice would be beard for absolutism and reaction in the Diet. It is a blow aimed not only at the especial cantons menaced, but apparently at the entire government, the political system, and independence of the country. Another canton that Austria proposes to occupy is St. Gall, a state whom manufacturing industry rivals the opposite Austrian valley. Austria always demands to occupy a rich canton, where her famished troops may live at free quarters. To quarter her Croats upon the great spinning end weaving factories of St. Gall would equalise the burdens of taxation and tho cost of pro duction between them and their Austrian rivals. The rich and manufacturing cantons are liberal ; have liberal governments and institutions. The re and absolutist cantons are poor as rats, t r riT:P opulation,property, money, or ideas. Austria would leave them as they are, untouched. They are her model states. Only to them would she en bust the high influence and political guidance of the Sidgwaticia. That Prince Scirwaarcvszao should seek such remits, and should ask permission to employ. his , Wane to perpetrate the Vandalism is natural enough. Barbarians will be barbarians, and a regiment at Croats must be ill at ease in the vistrity of the Freed\ and the Italian ideas and tam BM that Frame should hearken to sash a aseeni—the a r.hr et France, who owed his owe edendea mil security to the protection of a Swiss trestles maten—that he should sacrifice what is —mod teen es y see et the pentaims of European liberty, Amtrik-6 inerealide. • pretty lea eat for Zeglieh travellers this memesi et the Se.

FRANCE. PARIS, Wanxamay Evannro. The event of the day is the trial of M. Booker be ton the Tribunal of First Instance of the Seise. The meet of this trial has beim a check for the govern ment, ethos M. Bocher has been condemned only to a Inc of NO francs, without imprisonment; and the two astpisph who were indicted with hint on the SIM shims of distributing publications without the sews of printer being attached, were sentenced to a fine of 130 fr. This slight punishment is in fact equivalent to an acquittal, and is accepted as a triumph by the Orleanists. M. Bocher was intro duced between two gendarmes, and made to sit on the same bench which is occupied by com mon felons. lie made an excellent and mo derate speech on his own behalf. But the oration of M. Odilon Ilarrot in his defence has made a prodigious impression. M. Barret spoke with great energy and vigour. lie said that M. Bocher had, performed his duty. He was bound to distribute the, publication in question, not only as a defence against a moat unjustifiable invasion of the rights of pro pirty, but us the protest of filial piety against the memory of an outraged father. Tho latter expres sion alludes to the letter of the princes. Tho deli- i beration lasted for two hours and a half. The length of this sitting was attributed to the circumstance that the court sent to the ministry of poll() to know if the trial would bo allowed to be published in the newspapers. Leave was given ; hence we may ex pect the appearance of M. Barrot's speech in the journals of to-morrow. The Aloniteur contains a decree, which adds a fresh proof of the resolution of the Prince President to go through with the decree confiscating the pro petty of the Orleans family. A portion of the spoil, you may remember, was devoted to the creation of a military medal, with an annuity of 100 francs. We now learn that this decoration is to bear the effigy of Louis Napoleon, with the device of " Valour and Discipline." Perhaps the appearance of this decree was timed to coincide with the trial of 31. Bocher, in order to remind the army of its portion of the ePeil- Great disgust has been produced to-day by • dis graceful attack upon Caviuguac, by M. de Cessna, in' the Public. Speaking of the republican games election, M. de Cesena says: "that if Ocooral Gyp vaignac should raise himself from deputy to rebel, the chastisement is ready." This coons moon is branded by public contempt. The Assemblee Nationek contains an important article upon the Swiss question. It appears from this, that the cabinet of Vienna distinctly notified to the federal council the intention to occupy the canton of Ticino with Austrian troops, unless the demands for the expulsion of certain refugees were complied with, and guarantees given for preventing their re turn, as well as the renewal of conspiracies against the peace of Lombardy. Prince Schwarzenberg sent instructions to M. Hubner, the Austrian ambassador at Paris, to prop ose to the French government a simultaneous action in the manic views, and the occu pation of Gomm sod the canton of Vaud by the French troops.

The are two pow fail obstacles in the way d this remeb. public opinion in Italy, which is represented by So liberal government of Sardinia, and the influence of Great Britain at Turin. Upon these moral and political supports alone rests the cabinet of MIL d'Azeglio and Cavour, the fall of which would be the signal for the subjugation not only of Swum , - land, but of Piedmont and the whole Italian mis sals, to the tyrannous league of France and Amide.

PIEDMONT. The Garth, of the 28th contains decrees accepting the resignation of M. Deforests, Secretary of State for Ecclesiastical Affairs and of Justice. He is suc ceeded by M. Gsbarium, who at the same time re signs the post of Minister of the Interior, in which office he is succeeded by M. Perroti de Mime. Count Cavour, Minister of the Navy, Agriculture, and Commerce, becomes Minister of Finance, and the ministry formerly held by him is suppres sed, and its different departments are assigned to various minis ters. The clerical papers assure the public that M. Drffisesta's retirement is the result of dissensions existing between him and his colleagues respecting the laved civil marriages, which has been brought before are chambers. The object of this law is to establish in Sardinia that which al ready exists in Belgium, France, and almost every catholic state, the obligation to celebrate the civil contract implied in marriage before the religious ceremony which draws down neon it the benediction of the church. Our private advice, assure us that no difference of opinion exists between M. Deforests and his colleagues upon this point. That minister never proposed more than a temporary pos session of office, and now retires, not from political motives, but fr og ill-health. The King has con ferred upon him the cross of commander of the order of St. Maurice and Lazarus. The session of the Senate and Chamber of Deputies for 11132 opens this day, so that the interval of the two sessions will have been lees than a week. LOMBARDY. A Milan letter in the Opinion* of Turin of the 25th, shows that the Austrian authorities have com menced towards English travellers that system of petty . annoyance which was threatened in the note of Prince Schwanenberg to Count Buol-Schauenstem. The letter states that the police had received orders to exercise the strictest surveillance over English travellers. It was with great difficulty the latter could obtain passports, and, with rare exceptions, they were not to be permitted to sojourn more than 24 hours in Lombardy. THE EXPRESS, THURSDAY EVENING, MARCH 4, 1852. ROMAN STATES. Our Roman correspondent, writing on the 24th February, states that the conspiracy to produce con fusion during the carnival was the principal topic of interest in that city. Fifty or sixty individuals had been arrested, and some hundreds placed under po lice surveillance in consequence. Cardinal Cutra cane died on the 22nd inst., and Cardinal Bernetti was expected to follow his example. H.M. war steamer Spiteful, Capt. Parker, left Civita Vecchia on the 20th. Further discoveries of great antiqua rian interest had been made in the hot springs of Vicarello, near Bracciano. GERMANY. BERLIN, ILtacz 2.

The Dtsbats has the following upon the position of the l'acha of Egypt and the prospects of the railway : We have accounts from Alexandria to the 9th ult. Abbas Pasha bad received, some days before, a notification from Constantinople that his demand to be allowed to continue to exercise the power of capital punishment was definitively rejected, and that measures had been taken (*reaming the walnut into effect in Egypt, with a few insignificant modifications. Although this 11441 been expected, it caused great irritation to the I'acha. He imme diate ) y convoked the consular body, and communicated to them the news be had received ; and to them he declared that the pretensions of the Porte were incompatible with the government of Egypt secured to him by treaties, and that he was resolved to resist them by all means in his power. Abbas Paella evidently expected that this declaration woula cause great effect on the consuls-general; but they re ceived it with calm. The Paths then asked their advice, sad they unanimously expressed the opinion that before all be should obey the Sultan, his sovereign, but that they would refer the matter to their respective governments. It is said that, dissatisfied with this, Abbas Pasha declared that be could no longer answer for the safety of Europeans in Egypt. On this, some of the consuls addressed hum is rather severe terms, and be gave explanations which saris fled them. The Pacha, according to his custom in all cases of difficulty, subsequently left Cairo. He proceeded to Upper Egypt, and was accompanied by Mr. Murray, the English Consul Oeneral. At tbedate of the last news he had arrived at Beni Sinter, where he had been obliged to stop for a few days in consequence of some accident to his steamer. It was there that the news of the fall of Reschid Paella would reach him ; it arrived at Alexandria on the Ist ult., but did not produce the sensation which might have been expected. As to the que.tion of the railway, it remained in the same state. The English engineers had terminated their plans fur more than a month, but neither materials nor workmen were supplied them. The numerous Turks of the administration threw continual obstacles in the way of the delivery of wood and stone, and the moudirs (chiefs of provinces) said that the fellahs, taking advantage of the tanaimat, refused to work without being paid. It was evident that all this was only done to compel England to relieve the Pacha of the demands of the Porte. A petition, to be signed by all English tiers to India, praying the British government to support the Viceroy, was being got up. It represented that, if he were deprived of the power of life and death, the Bedouins could not be kept in order. AMERICA. ARRIVAL OF THE PACIFIC. By the arrival in the Mersey, at half-past eight last evening, of the United States mail steam-ship Pacific, Captain Nye, we have received New York letters and papers to the 21st ult. The general news is wholly unimportant. The Pacific brings 60 passengers, and upwards of 600,000 dollars in specie on freight. The well known and extensive commercial firm of Carleton and Co., of New York, had been compelled to stop payment in consequence of the defalcations of some of the southern houses, with which they had been in intimate correspondence. The barque Franklin, with 800 bales of cotton from Apalachicola for New York, ran ashore, on the sth inst., on Forth Key Reef, Tortugus. The wreckers took out 250 bales, and she got off on the 7th, and arrived at Key West on the following day. She did not leak, and has received no material damage. Another dreadful accident had occurred on the Erie railroad, attended with the lose of several lives. It is quite clear that the most culpable neglect was manifested, and the wonder is that the loss of life is confined to a few individuals, instead of many hundreds, as must have been the case had the occurrence happened five or six minutes later. The engineer and conductor were immediately arrested. The coroner's jury severely censured the company in their verdict. A steamer had arrived at New Orleans from Ma tamoros with 50,000 dollars in specie ou freight. She also brought word that General Males was rapidly fortifying his position outside the city, and that the inhabitants were greatly alarmed by the reports that Caravajal was advancing with 700 troops. Advice" from Copiapo, Chili, to the 30th of De cember state that an attack had been made on that city by rebel troops, who had succeeded in overturn ing the government. Advice.' from Havannah to the lath alt. are de void of interest in a political point of view. Sugar, molasses, coffee, and tobacco were all in good de mand, and firm prices consequent on the limited re ceipts from the interior. Freights were improving. NEW YORK, FRIDAY Moire, Fee. 20. Government securities have boss inesidve of late, and prices since the departure of the sismier area shade lower, as will be found upon Mims, Is ear list of quota firms Speculative Nuke hays usispiese the usual fluc tuations, but the tmageney, generally *taking, has been downwards.

We quote London, 110 to 1101 ; Paris, 6.16 to 6.16 4 ; Hambarg, 34 to 38 4 ; Am sterdam, 41i to 411; Bremen, 78# to 781. There was about 000,000 dole. I. specie, engaged to go out by the steamer Pacific at a late hour this evening, but, as the shipments are principally in American gold, it is impossible to estimate the amount that will be taken out. There has been an increased demand for money this week, which has been met at a trifling advance in the rates of interest, more especially for stock loans and the middling classes of paper. Of the latter there is rather more offer ing. Until gold comes in from California in larger amounts, and with the present demand for money, we think the °haiku are in favour of higher rates of interest. Corrog.—We have had daily a good demand sines the sailing of the Europa, 17th inst., without change in price. The more favourable tenor of the Pacific's advicee failed to produce any effect on this market, being counteracted by the advance in freights from Id. to Id. The Canada's ac counts did not equal anticipations, sad prices conse quently at this point did not farther improve after their receipt. But both these stamen have caused an advance at southern 'markets. At New Orleans on the 19th (yesterday) the miss were 10,000 bake at 7fe. for " middling ; " receipts light.
