In the crowd on the Pont de !Arches-eche% as the advocates of the prisoners passed a young man was arrested for having cried " Vise la Ripublique ' " The interrogatory of Isadore Gent before the examining magistrates at Orange was, iu compliance with thu request of Alphonse Gent, read. The accused, Bouvier, Longnmazino, and Nouis, com plained of certain trilling errors respecting them in the documents and in the local journals. The reading of the documents was proceeded with; but after a while was interrupted by a noise at the door, which turned out to be caused by M. Omura, the representative, to whom the gendarmes refused admission. The President ordered that M. Orepoo should be ad mitted. Documents relative to Caussanel, Thourel, Saute, and Longomazino were read, but were interrupted from time to time by unimportant remarks of the accused. Longome zino's advocate denied that, as stated, his client had made revelations respecting a plot which he had himself concocted, or that he had been condemned for swindling. The court adjourned at live o'clock. u The manifesto of the Mountain appears in the National and the rresse of this morning. It is signed by 93 representatives. The names of 14 others, including Victor Hugo, Emile de Gimrdin, Pascal Dupre, and Dupont (de Bussac) arc published as have adhered to the manifesto. The name of Carnet is not among either the signatures or adhesions. A LITTLE paragraph in the Express of Thursday The document, which is very long, occupying five columns of the National, is moderate in its tone. It stated that, an the last two years , no fewer tha n insists upon the illegality of the law of the 31st of 60,600 persons had seceded from the Wesleyan core - insists assumes that that law will yet be repealed by sanity. And, on turning to its different organs , the present assembly ; and dwells upon the nupossi and to the discussions that have arisen out of the bility of the re-election of Louis Napoleon, because Annual Conference held at Newcastle-upon-Tyne, we such a re-election would violate the constitution.

MADRID, AUGUST 6. During the prorogation of the Cortex rumours of ministerial changes are always current. This year they are unsually continuous. I should not be sur prised to see a partial modification. Bertran de Lys will perhaps abandon his portfolio to Quinto or to Benarides, and Artela his to Cundido Nocedal. It is said that the King insists on the nomination of a governor of the palace, and that that is the cause of the crisis. Yesterday the ambassadors of France and Portugal had audiences of the Queen ; the former ou his arrival, the latter to take leave. PORTUGAL. By the Severn, we have news from Lisbon to the 9th instant. The electoral decree has been altered to re-elect the illegally elected com missioners. The tax qualification for voters has been reduced. Parish priests are eligible as deputies. The election is to take place on the 16th November. The Cortes will meet on the 15th December. The troops in the capital are insubordinate. Sal danha has been restored to his post on the King's staff, from which he was dismissed by Thomar.

TRIAL AT LYONS. iftitraricocer 8. The whole day was again occupied in reading evi dence, consisting chiefly in letters by or to the prisoners. An incident occurred which very nearly resulted in de priving the prisoners of the assistance of their counsel. This would certainly have happened but for the really ad mirable conduct of Colonel Couston, who, with all the dig nity and firmness which belong to the president of a court martial, evinces under most difficult circumstances, a spirit of kindnem and conciliation which is far less common. Whileche registrar was reading one of the 222 letters which am in evidence signinst`Gent, the latter told him to pass that letter over. The registrar stopped reading, on which the president warmly re b uked him for attending to an order from a prisoner. Subsequently, upon Captain Merle, who acts as judge advocate, expressing his opinion that it was unnecessary to read all the letters of Gent, the latter explained that there was nothing that he desired to suppress, but that some of his letters to his brother related to such merely private matters that he wished to put it to the judge advocate whether it was worth while to read them. M. Michel (de Bourges) then observed that the letter to which Gent's interruption referred, was one in which ho had spoken to his brother of his own suc cesses at the bar, and that it was from a natural feeling of modesty that he did not wish to bear it read in public. The President remarked somewhat stonily, that the fact stated was no justification for the prisoner having pre sumed to give an order to the registrar. Gent then denied that he had given any order, and upon the President repeating the assertion, Gent con tradicted him with much warmth of manner. The President instantly ordered the gensdarmes to take Gent out of court, which was at once done. M. M chel (de Bourges) was proceeding to make an apology for Gent, when the President told him that the trial should proceed in Gent's absence. M. Michel (de Bourges) then said he would withdraw from the defence. M. de Nadler Montjau rose and said that he and the rest of his colleagues also felt that they could not continue their task and felt it right to withdraw The President then said, with much feeling, that he deeply regretted to hear that resolution, that it would be a ter rible loss to the prisoners, and that the court also were anxious to have the assistance of counsel, and he would gladly lister. to them. He would revoke his de cision and re-admit Gent, if the latter would only admit that he had been wrong. M. Michel (de Bourges) ob served that Gent had not intended to be disrespectful to the President, and consequently could not admit that he was wrong. The President then said that he would go so far as to admit him without any apology on the under standing that he would conduct himself properly for the future. M. Michel (de Sources) withdrew with this mes sage, and with some difficulty persuaded Gent to return into court. Gent, on taking his place, bowed slightly to the President, who returned the salutation. The reading of evidence was then resumed. gers, on a far greater scale, into which episcopacy and tractarianism would, if they could inis their way, .plunge the English church, and wiritlit the English nation. .1.. t , • _A IN another pert of this dayllsmptffillin,lrill found a translation of a circular, addrtis aby the Austrian officer in command of the Venetian pro vinces to the military commanders under him. It is calculated to convey a curious notion of the con dition of the luckless Italians subjected to the sway of the double eagle, and of the notions of honourable conduct which must prevail among the officers of the Austrian army. The Omer who exercises civil and military autho rity in the Venetian provinces, instructs his subordi nates Ss set on foot a system of espionage into the ossdnet and affairs, and history of all Italian sub joins. lie enumerates no less than seventeen cate gories of facts respecting which they must at all times hold themselves ready to give full and explicit information respecting any individual, high or low, in their district, about whom government may feel curiosity. They are to report, " What are his usual topics of discourse in public places;" "In what special relations he stands to his parents, his family, hie friends, and his mistress;" and "If ho took no part in the revolution, whether he refrained on prin ciple and from devotion to his lawful sovereign, or from fear, prudence, apathy, inaction, or calcu lation."

The Poet-office authorities have received orders not to deliver any journals printed in Pied mont. I understand this new regulation originates from the fact that a Turin paper is publishing Mr. Gladstone's pamphlets on the state trials of Naples. PIEDMONT. The Piedmontese Gazette states that, on the Ist inst., the Arro, in Savoy, overflowed its banks and caused a frightful inundation. All the country around Bonneville and Thycz was under water; the potato harvest is entirely spoiled, the corn washed away, and a large number of small farmers ruined in consequence. The high road to Chamouny has suffered much damage from the inundation. GERMANY. AUSTRIA. The entente cordiale between Austria and Prussia seems to be great at present. We quote the follow ing from the German papers : " VIENNA, AVG. 5.-By a telegraphic despatch re ceived from Linz, the Emperor of Austria has arrived at Ischl in perfect health. " LINZ, Are. 3.—Her Majesty the Queen of Prussia arrived last evening at IschL" PRUSSIA. Preparations are now again everywhere actively making for the assembling of the provincial diets. You will recollect that the collection of the class and classified income tax was the pretext originally put forth for their revival. It appears, however, now that their attributes are to be so multifarious and extensive as to embrace all the objects of provincial The government evidently expects much opposi tion from the electors, and to meet it the Preussierhe Zeitung announces that measures have been taken to put down at once the system of protesting against the legality of the diets, which the constitutional party all ovor Prussia has hitherto resorted to. The Knit: Zeitung mentions that the Ober President of Mark Brandenburg, where elections are now going on, has received instructions from the Minister of the Interior, not to receive protests, and in case officials should, afterexpostulatitm, persist in sending them in, to take legal proceedings against such persons, by virtue of the Bth article of the criminal code. , Both the ministerial prints dwell much upon the necessity of a prompt and vigorous repression of the protesting opposition. I cannot at this moment refer specifically to the nth article of the criminal code above alluded to, but it is certain that I'russian officials have hitherto acted on' the conviction, that they possess a right to protest against any illegal ministerial reseript ; it is certain that for several months, in almost all the provinces of the kingdom, the highest authorities—some of them high legal authorities—have done so; it is cer tain also, that it has never till now been intimated, much less distinctly averred, that in so doing they had violated the law : and from these certainties results the most prominent certainty of all—that the law appealed to was never intended to meet the case in question ; and that, in order to receive this appli cation, it must be forcibly and tyranically wrested from the purpose for which it was enacted to accom plish another purpose, viz., the setting up of a minis terial rescript above all law. It is to he hoped, however, that the popular party will act on the suggestion thrown out by the Cologne Gazelle, by which they may entirely defeat this new violent act of illegality on the part of the govern ment ; that is, they should not protest and withdraw but proceed vigorously to the elections, return their I own men, and then, in the midst of the I /jets' assem blies, utter through members representing their party, such protests as could not be silenced or put down. This plan of action would be almost sure to result in a great constitutional victory—the more especially, as in many instances the protesters would constitute the majority in the Diets. In Halle on the 6th instant, the majority of the Communal Council, 20 in number, protested against the revival of the provincial Diets, as illegal, and withdrew, leaving the elections completely in the hands of thei minority, ten. Another of the small states has imitated the ex ample of Anhalt Dessau, at least if one may judge from an article of a ministerial print of Schwarz burg Sonderhausen, of which I transcribe the follow ing extract : Our constitution dates front 12th December, 1949. It was then expected that a Germanic empire would be esta blished. But this has not happened. On the contrary, we have been obliged to return to the German confedera• tion. Hence follows the necessity of changing the consti tution, inasmuch as it harmonises not, but is in contradic tion with the federal constitution. The force of events must be submitted to : of this there can be no doubt. The only question is, how far we must go to bring our constitu tion into agreement with that of the confederation, and whether the government should take the initiative, or al low it to come from without. On this subject, according to sure information, our government has applied through its envoy to the Frankfort Diet fur counsel. is better authority than news from Havana. It is also " r tain that the Spanish steamers and vessels of war have Lee despatched with troops towards the scene of action. After carefully comparing the various ileetotot , , I cannot doubt that there is a rising of a portion of the inhabit: it'l t and that the danger is by no means over. THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. ARRIVAL OF THE PROPONTIS. PLYMOUTH, The Propontis, General Screw Steam-ship Cron. pany's vessel, Captain Glover, arrived here this morn ing at 20 minutes past 10. She left the Cape of Grssl Hope on the 4th of July, arrived at Sierra Leone on the 20th of July, and left the same day; arrived at St. Vincents on the 26th, and sailed on the 28th of July. She brings a general cargo. Sir 11. Smith was on the frontier. He could not do much for the want of efficient forces. The Kafiri were kept at bay by the force under his command, although they could not be reduced to subjection without much greater strength being brought against them. However, they were effectually prevented from doing much harm. The feeling at the Cape was that the war would be of long duration, unless much more strength in the shape of troops was sent from England. Sandilli was in his native moun tains. His favourite prophet has forsaken him and joined another chief. Pato remained faithful to the British cause. The news from head-quarters brings intelligence from King William's Town to the 121st of June. Bodies of troops which had gone out for the purpose of patrolling both banks of the Keiskamma, so as to prevent, if possible, the rebel Hottentots from re tiring on the Amatola, or any reinforcement of Kaffirs front moving into the colony to their aid, had returned, after eight days' hard work in the bush, without falling in with any large body of the enemy, or capturing more than some two hundred of cattle. The official details of these patrols are given below, and show that everything that exertion could accom plish was done, furnishing another proof that tho enemy will not encounter the troops in force, and, if so, that the only way of subduing him, (save by the tedious process of starvation,) is to have patrols con tinually out, so as to make the country in which he finds shelter perfectly untenable. Our force has, it would appear, been too large for mere patrol work, and too small for a general or concentric movement ; so that when our patrols have gone in on one side of the Amatola, the enemy have gone out at the other. The late addition of 1,000 British infantry will, we doubt not, alter this state of affairs. The Cape 'linen _Wail, of July 1, in its monthly summary, says : A review of the occurrences of the past month presents few incidents of a cheering or satisfactory character. In the latter part of May, the marauding bands of Kattirs in the frontier districts became more numerous and bold than they had before shown themselves at any time during the present war. It was generally reported that the Kathr chiefs had given orders to their people to enter the colonv, and subsist in it by plunder during the winter, which had just com menced with unusual severity. This plan of hostilities has been vigorously pursued by the enemy during the month, with disastrous consequences to the eolonists, whose losses of property have been heavier than in any previous month of the war. Many valuable lives have also been lost, three keldeornets and several other respectable inhabitants having been killed in repelling the inroads of the plunderers. Sir Kerry Smith has remained at King W 11142101 Town, and has continued to send strung patrolling parties of troops into the enemy's country. The Kaffir.; have thus been kept on the alert, and have been prevented front entering the colony en maws. A few of them have been killed, some of their huts destroyed, and some hundreds of cattle captured. It does not appear, however, that any injuries have been inflicted upon them at all commensurate with those which the colony has suffered from them. The rebel Hottentots among them, however, are reported to be in a bad plight, from want of provisions; and a few have come in and sur rendered themselves. The Hottentot levies at King William's Town. chicdy from the western district., were likely to return home at the close of their term of enlistment, which expires on the 10th inst. Very few of theta had consented to reenlist. Their general conduct is highly commended. A party of frontier coluni.ts, proceeding with a train of waggons from Cradock to Graham's Town, were attacked by Kaffir', several of the waggons plundered, the oxen carried otf, and one of the defenders, Mr. G. Byason, son of the resident magistrate of Bathurst, was killed. Two days before Mr. Whiting, another traveller, proceeding to Craciock, was attacked in his waggon, and stabbed to death with assegais. The accounts from the north-eastern boundary represent that part of the colony as hi u deplorable condition from the ravages of the Tambookies. . At7the last accounts from bead-quarter (Juno 21) Sir li. Smith was preparing for an important movement, mid to be a patrol intended to continue for two or three weeks, and (according to one report) to hi commanded by his Excel lency in person. It is even rumoured that Sir Harry en tertained the hope of being able 19 this movement to bring the war to a close. Fears prevailed among the frontier colonists that a peace would he " patched up" on suck con ditions as would result in a renewal of hostilities within a few years, General Somerset was engaged, during the latter part of May, in sittempting to expel the KuMrs and rebel Hottea tots, who, under the chief Moonno, had taken possession of the Kat River settlement. The Major-General's fume, however, proved to be insufficiew to aceinnplish this object. The enemy constantly withdew as he advanced, and re turned upon his traces whenever he retired to his encamp ment. Some shark skirmishing took place, but with no important result. The most unfortunate event which has occurred during the month—and, next to the Kat River revolt, the most un fortunate occurrence in this war -has been the insur rection of the Hottentots of the Theopolis Mission Station, in Lower Albany, near the sea -coast, and about 30 miles south-east of Graham's Town. These Hottentots had been previously joined by some deserters of the Cape Corps, through whose counsel and assistance, it appears, the insur rection was concerted and earn e d i n t o elect. At daybreak on the morning of the 31st of May the Hottentots suddenly fell upon several Fingoes who resided at their station, aud murdered them. They then loaded their waggons with their families and peals and mortal off towards the Bush man's River, sending, at the same time, to one of the Clare chiefs to ask for assistance. Theopolis, it should be stated, although considered a station of the Londou Missionary So ciety (and having been, in fact, the seat of one of its earliest "institutions " iu South Africa), bad been for two;yeara with out a resident missionary, being only occasionally visited by the missionary resident at Graham's Town. Ihe number of persons at the station has of late years been about 300, of whom about 70 were grown men. Many of the hat Riser settlers originally emigrated from Theopolis, and an inti mate connection has consequently always existed between the two places. The news of this insurrection spread with great rapidity, and caused the utmost excitement in Graham's Town, and throughout the neighbouring country. Major-General Somerset happened to he at the time in Graham's Town. The 74th Regiment, which recently arrived in the colony, had reached Graham's Town, on its way to Fort Hare, only three days before. The Major-General at ones ordered about 300 men of that regiment to proceed towards Lower Albany, in order to intercept the insergents—be himself 'preparing to take the command of t h e force which was to surreand and crush them. The Graham's Town Mounted Wingers, however, pushed cm before the infantry, and. being paned by some mounted burghers from Lower Albany and Uiten hage, made on attack ou a party of the rebels, about 100 strong. A desperate conflict ensued, but the rebels were at length driven from the held into a neirhbourin; ravine, leerier; their waggons and oxen, and seven of their number killed . Of the colonial force, Field-Cornet Gray, an old and much-respected settler, of Lower Albany, was killed; Captain W. Stubbs, of the Graham's Town Rangers, and Co' amandant Woest, of :he Citenhage Burghers, with et veral others, were wounded. This action took place on the 3rd ult. On the sth, early in the morning, Major-General Somerset, having assembled a force of about GOO men, proceeded to surround the strong. hold in which the rebels had taken refuge. This was a covert, inclosed by dense hush, in a bead of the Kareiga River. The rebels were partially surrounded, but through some unfortunate mistake or mismanagement they were allowed to escape at an unguarded outlet. They fled, leav ing some waggons and shat 6110 cattle in the hands of the troops. Immediately afterwards, in obedience to orders from head-quarters, General Somerset and the 74th o gi ment proses.ded to Fort Hare. The rebels, after burning the buildings at Theopolis retreated intolKaffireland. - We learn that there is no doubt of the early establishment of the line of mail steam packets from Holland to Batavia, touching at the Cape. The agents in Cape Town are Messrs. Anderson and Co. The petition to her Majesty against the suggested removal of the seat of government from Cape Town to Graham's Town has received in this city and the vicinity about 4,000 signatures. It will be forwarded to England by the Propontis. The Graham's Town Journal of June 21 says: The intelligence from head-quarters is to the 17th inst., but is not important, except so far as the report is ton firrnef: of the intention of the coloured. levies, whose term of enrolment will expire by the middle of next month, to re turn home. Preparations were making fora combined movement upon the Arnatola, the respective divisions to march the beginning of the ensuing week. The account before us ridicules the idea of the governor having made overtures to Stock, Seyolo, or any other of the belligerent chiefs. Two or three Kettles had come in from the tribes engaged in the war, praying that they might be permitted to " sit in peace with Siwani," and one of these had been presented with a spade and sickle, as significant emblems of the desire of the English that the Kaffirs should follow the peaceful pursuits of tlilage, and not those of ruinous devas tating war. From the Kat River we learn that the Kaffir and rebel Hottentots arc there in as great force as ever ; and that the country is as dangerous, the kloofs being invested with strong bodies of banditti as at any period of the war. The moment Gen. Somerset retired from the Kat River the enemy resumed his previous position in Van Beulen's Woof,
