FIN MIAMI. 26 44 92 0 THE TRIAL OF ROSE TAMISIER., THE XIRACLE-WORKER. The tribunal of Correctional Police of Carpentrea continued, on the lit, the examination of witnesses against Wee Tunisia., the woman amused of having out raged the catholic religion by pretending to hare wrought miracles. M. Cairo, formerly tripwire at Saint Saturnin, said that he knew Rose at the time he resided in that place, and considered that she hod • narked tendency to do extra ordinary things. His opiate was that bar piety was not very caginess& For his part, what her pretended miracles were fasted, he had retuned to go up to the chapel, and had normasinded the cur& to put an end to the saw dal, fiir the salts of religion. This led to an altercation, and the and ended by saying that if witness did net domed his removal from the pariah he would. Wit. 'rams mrionlingly lett the parish. He had had in his poun• seam the original of the letter which Rose pea aria hod been written by miraculous intervention by a penes who did sot know how to write, but had burned it As he had boa the confessor of the woman, he positively refuel to wavier any questions whatsoever as to her der roster semi conduct. M. Cheesed, a priest, formerly of Notre Dame des Lumieres, and at present of Marseilles, said that, in order to ace whether Rose really had the op& ritual groom to which she pretended, he got her to oomoss in a lifiliWWW with him to demand a prodigy in his favour. Before the end of it, he, in order to catch her in • sari, represented that when at prayer one day, before the alter of the Miraculous Virgin, he saw, in a splendid violin gik. tering with light, the Virgin Mary, holding the intact JUGS in her arms ; that Jesus dropped his a letter, written in sin meters of gold, and that on opening it he read, " Peelle be with you, my son ! I have nothing more pie. sinus to give to those my heart loeeth I " that after reading it, the letter suddenly vanished; that ho had then seen three hearts, to ono of wide a Creel was chained; that from one of them blind dropped into a chalice, held by a hand ; that he bad dm heard the voice of an angel saying, "Take and drink with out hesitation, for this blood will communicate to thee force to resist the rude trials which await thee !” that after drink ing the chalice suddenly became changed into a bishop's mitre, which floated before his enchanted eyes! Rose de clared that precisely at the same time she had seen the same vision, and she explained what the different thingssignifled. M. Andre, cure of Beaumettes, said he considered the mi racles as juggling tricks, and he proposed to expose them by a publication in a religious periodical, but was prevented by the ecclesiastical authorities. He found that Rose belonged to a sect which had lately sprung up in the church under the direction of a mannamed Vintras, the members of which pretended to have the power of working miracles and seeing visions. M. Croat, one of the vkaires of St. Saturnia, said he considered the miracles of Rose as impostures. IL Grand, cure of the same parish, was then called, sad his presence in the witness box excited great interest. He said that on the 10th November lest Josephine Imbert had called on him to state that she and Rose Tamisier, being risme in the chapel of Calvary, had seen blood issue frees the two wounds of the Saviour in the painting representing the descent from the cross, placed above the altar. He pent her away with instructions to inform him lids should again observe the same thing. In the morning oldie 17th December, Josephine called on him and begged him to p at once to the chapel. He found RIM alone in it, kneeling on the steps of the altar. She was iu a sort of extasy, and did not utter a single word on seeing him. Atter about ten minutes, Rose said, " Look now, if you wish to see the blood flow!" He lighted a candle, and got on the altar. He saw several drops of blood flow from the wounds of the right hand and the side of Christ. He sent for M. Boat& one of his vicaires, and for Dr. Cie mat. The latter, on arriving, burst into laughter, en being told why he had been sent for. But hey- , 1 en to the altar, he teethed ale a the womads with We int; and, smelling the fag sr, erY, " It is blood." The doctor then applied a pahowlandkerehief to the woods of the hand, and on eanaking the stains hand the they were of blood.

On the 6th Feb. he was told that Rose bad declared that something supine- Inial was about to take place is the chapel. The chapel was then locked up, and he had the keys. Blood was that day seen on the picture. The chapel had been sealed up until within a few days before, in compliance with the orders of the ecclesiastical authoelties, who bad declared that there wee no miracle. He could not tell to what ewe the extraordinary facts he had related were to be ascribed. Rose had always bees considered a good girl, and her conduct was irreproachable. The mayor of St. Baturnin deposed that he had seen the blood on the pie. tare. He could not say that it was caused by a miracle, het it was inexplicable and supernatural. The woman Jean, cousin of Rum, was then called, but appeared very reluctant to give evidence, and she only replied by mono syllables to the questions put to her. tihe was, however, made to state that Rose had given her • pocket-handker chief stained with blued from the picture; also, that on one OCCIIAUII, after cununonicating, the consecrated wafer remained un her tongue for half an hour without thwac k's—that she bad then felt herself irresistibly attracted to asses bed, and gave her the wafer with her tongue,Ruee re solving on her tongue. That cireumetance had always en• peered supenistual to witness, and the result of divine in spiration.

She several times accompanied Rose to the church, but never law her put blood on the picture. When on such occasions they entered the chapel, Rose was accustomed to kneel at the altar. When Rose felt she was about to receive a grace from heaven, she awed her to go and seek other witnesses. When Rom felt there would be no miracle, she returned quietly home. Witness never locked Rose in the church. Her ',eviction was that the bleedings of the picture were Mimed by divine intervention, and that Row was holy. Dr. OWEN( was then examined. He described how he wiped the blood on the picture, as related by the cure, M. lls could not, he said, explain to himself how the tidolog ad been caused, and d.d not think that any satisfac tory explanation had been given of it. The triblinal then adjourned.—The Astra of Saturday evening says :—" A letter front Carpentras aunouuci.s that the affair of Rose Tamisier has had, after three days' long and laborious in vestigation, an unexpected termination—the tribunal has declared itself without jurisdiction, and has sent the affair before whomsoever it may concern, all things remaining in their present state." great that many had fled across the Kci, into KreiFs country. It appears that Sandilli himself narrowly escaped capture on one occasion during the progress of those operations. Within the colony the invaders were continuing their ravages with unabated vigour, in spite of Major-General Somerset's efforts to check them. His division, ine!uding the 71th Regiment, had been engaged in a severe conflict with the marauders, at Water Kloof, in the Fort Beaufort district. Ono Cape Mounted Rifleman and one Fingo were wounded; the Kaffirs fought desperately, and about fifteen of them were supposed to have fallen. The troops afterwards fell back to their camp, at Yellow wood, opposite the Kurumo. A letter received by last post from Van der Walt's Poort, Nieuwveld, in the Beaufort District, about 300 miles from the scat of war, contains the following startling announcement :—" 18th July. The drought still continues. Thousands upon thousands of sheep arc dead. Add to this the danger in which we are likely to be placed by a fight which it is more than probable will commence to-morrow, with the Kaffirs in the neighbourhood of the Praamberg. A commando is to go against them to-morrow; they are sure to resist, and then, war to the knife." The Hellespont tail Steamer, Captain Watts, arrived at Plymouth yesterday at 12 o'clock, having left the Cape on the Ist of August, Sierra Leone the 18th, and St. Vincent's on the 24th. Her news is important and interesting, and will be found in the following extracts from the Cape papers: — Cape Towns Afail o . lfes, August 1, 11 s.x. The poet which has just arrived from the frontier beings additional intelligence of a painful and dis heartening character. The Kaffir and rebel Hot tentots were spreading themselves in large parties over the country from Sunday's River to the Ame bas', slaying, pillaging, and burning in all direc tions. Some atrocious murders of frontier colonists bad been committed by the Hottentot banditti. In British Kaffraria there was comparative peace. The patrols sent out from King William's Town encoun tered few enemies, and obtained no booty, the cattle of the Kaffir having been driven to a distance. The accounts of the irruption of the. Kaffira into the Zuurberg are confirmed. A great number of cattle and horses had been swept off from the neighbour hood of the Sunday's River, and numerous fires had been observed in the direction of the great Zuurberg and towards Oliphant's Hock. Two engagementshad takenplace in which five of theKaffirs were killed, and three of the colonists were wounded. The following letter and extracts comprise all the important intelligence received by this post: GRAHAM'S TOWN, JULY 26. The post-riders brought information that the Addo Bush seemed to be full of the enemy, as numberless spoors were ob served crossing the road at various points. They also reported that Mr. Pullen, of Uitenhage, had lost all his valuable stud of horses, reckoned to be the best in the Eastern Province. Mr. Pullen himself, while out with a party in search of some stolen cattle, had received several wounds from musket shots. Late yesterday evening tbo town was thrown into a state of great anxiety and consternation, by the most distressing accounts• received from the neigh-' bourhood. No fewer than ten or twelve Europeans have fallen victims to the savage barbarity of the enemy. When men die on the field of battle, bravely fighting for their country, there is a melancholy poet of satisfaction, which robs the event of half its at tendant horrors. But when travellers arc waylaid and shot down as they are riding along a public road, without an opportunity allowed them for standing in their defence, there is nothing to lighten or alleviate the heavy blow which falls on the hearts of surviving friends and relations. Yesterday even ing, a party arrived in town, under command or Lieut. fhackwray, of the 74th Regiment, which officer brought the following intelligence :—" The 'nasal post to Fort Hare, consisting of the man with the mail bags, and an escort of eight or ten mounted burghers, left Graham's Town on Wednesday morn ing, about 9 o'clock. They were accompanied by Mr. S. P. Impey, and Mr. Curley, both residents in Fort Beaufort, and who, having been some days in town on business were returning to their homes, wives and families. They were both active young men, from twenty-three to twenty-five years of age who had boon married and settled within the Inst two or three years.

Tainton went out yesterday with his Fingocs along the toot of the mountains, and this morning, as they were returning, Madana's Kaffirs came upon them, when the Fingoes retired till they got into the open ground. They then threw down their blankets, and went at the enemy, killing three and wounding several. None of the Fingoes were hurt. The Corn ' mander-in-Chief, hearing that the Gaika cattle were flying into Umhala's country, Colonel Napier was sent out the day before yesterday to follow any spoor leading that way. This morning we hear he has captured 280 head, which, of course, Umhala claims; but unfortunately for him some of them are recog nised as Gaika cattle, and others as having been stolen from East London lately. So you see we keep at it—the general being resolved to keep all on the qui rice. Three patrols out at the same time-- one of 600 men, another of 200, and a third of 160." From Alice (July 21) we have the following: "Our Fingocs had a desperate contest with the Kaffirs on the 13th inst., within sight of Alice. They rushed down, in number about 400, upon the cattle that were grazing in the field. They imagined, no doubt, that the Fingoes would take to flight ; but they were greatly deceived. The Kaffirs were ob liged to give way. When the news reached the fort the Fingoes were collected, and joined in pursuit of the flying enemy. Fourteen Kaffirs were killed, as the lingoes say, and a good many horses were taken from them. One Fingoe was killed and five wounded, and one Hottentot wounded. This was the most formidable fight we have had since the Kaffirs at tacked Alice. This is, moreover, the seventh or eighth battle—in all of which the enemy suffered severely—in these not leas than fifty or sixty having perished. This is our seventh Fingoe killed--so that you see " the best of all is, God is with us." U 46 12 30 FRANCE. PARIS, TraSDAT EVININO. The Prefect of Police has placarded in the streets to-day an important notice respecting foreigners. Every foreigner intending to reside or to exercise any calling in Paris, is within three days of his ar rival to present himself personally to the authorities to ask fur a permission to remain. A delay of 8 days is allowed to those foreigners who are already hero. Any neglect of this order will be followed by expul sion from the French territory. The order is not applicable to foreigners travelling for bushiest or Immure, and not intending to reside, who may be furnished with passports from their governments, regularly riatcd.

The Assemble , . Nationale insists, with amusing pertinacity, that fusion, so far from being dead and buried, is more lively and vigorous than ever. It fails to perceive that its own articles contribute every day to sink fusion into a lower deep of impossibility, for it has now become as purely legitimist as the Gazette de Frenee itself. It admits nothing else but traditional and hereditary monarchy, in the wake of which not only the Orlean princes, but the na. tional sovereignty of France may be permitted to follow if they please. M. ()ingot thus preaching divine right disguised under tho word fusion, is not one of the least strange consequences of the revolu tion of February. To-day the Assemblage affects to repudiate indignantly the imputation caoadaed in a recent letter from Pa ri s to the Times, that is eases-' quence of the refusal at Claremont to Mean. the Joinville candidature, the fusionist journal would probably espouse the cause of Louis Napoleon. Its argument, however turns chiefly upon a quibble upon the word" cause," and it very plainly looks forward to the possibility of becoming Bonapartist in certain i contingencies, although for the present it sees fit to compare Henry V. to a man-of-war, and. Louis Na poleon to a little skiff.

So that. Woad & lasi pion between contending parties, suet as night bare permitted them to lay down their mine, there has been but a truce. Now, what it is principally urgent and necessary for reformers to know respecting the measure con templated and promised by the Prune Minister is, whether it is to be an attempt to base the elec toral franchise and its distribution upon a principle, or whether it is to be, like the great measure of 1831, a mere compromise between parties, establishing not what would be equitable and just and wise, but what might be wrung from one party, and might satisfy another. For some time after the passing of that bill the leading whigs adopted the idea that it was to be final. They forgot that in order to render an institution final, it must be based on some law of reason or right, and not upon a compromise, of which the continuance must depend upon the relative strength and opinions of contending parties. We deprecate altogether this system of compromises; but if we do so, it is not that we consider them inimical to the popular interest. Oa the contrary, we can conceive nothing that a thorough democrat and re publican would more desire than that each conces sion to the people should he of that temporary kind and indefinite nature, as to let the monarchic institu tions of the country down at last to zero. Nothing, we feel assured, can be more fatal to the salutary influence of the upper classes, and to what is usefully conservative in the constitution, than the theories and principles which guide upper class poli ticians in the matter of reform. All the old twaddle about the constitution being a tree which had but to be allowed to grow—all that fine and baseless theory of Lord Jowl's, that the people of England had no right to this or that degree of freedom or of franchise, but to the best possible kind of govern ment, and to the franchise which would admit of it—all this is utter nonsense, basing legislation, as it does, on • metaphor or a conundrum, or assigning to it • rale or a guide which no man can find, and of which no one can be • competent or authoritative judge. Hut, in fact, these fine periphrases were merely in vented and put forth to hide the nakedness and meanness of the compromise on which the great work of reform proceeded. We have but to open Lord Jon N Resszi.L's speech on introducing the Reform Bill in order to see it fully and at once. After enumerat ing the number of decayed boroughs which, from want of population, were to be disfranchised, amount ing to upwards of 180 members, his lordship enumcrutra about 50 new members which his plan gave to towns that had sprung up of late years, and were totally unrepresented. But no sooner were these enumerated than to allay the rising fears and jealousies of the county gentlemen, the same or a greater number of additional members were given to counties. The noble author of the Reform Bill deemed that by this they . were keeping the balance even between the great interests. But the truth was, that the 180 disfranchised members had all originally represented the burgess interest, and ceased to "do so merely by displacement of the burgess population. The suppressing one-third of these, giving another third to counties, and dis tributing but one-third amongst the modern or existing burgesses, was as gross an injustice on the civic interests as ever was committed. It was, in fact, • fraud, if the ponderance of interests be con sidered the true basis of representation. It is this, with the inviolability of the House of Lords, that rendered the reform of Veal a sham, and has compelled the people of England to carry great measures of improvement since the Reform Bill as before it, not by fair parliamentary divisions but by agitation, intimidation, and moral violence bordering on the physical. We are therefore of opinion that the reform meditated by Lord Jon% RUSSELL will utterly fail, either in working well or in satis fying the people for any length of time, if it be simply a new bargain or fresh compromise. A statesman of the present advanced period ought to abandon that old division of the landed and the commercial interests. They are in reality identical, or they ought to be so. Nor ought one kind of wealth at this time of day to be endowed with privi leges that separate it from other kinds. The influence of wealth and of the upper elems can only be weakened thereby, and tars con servatism will lump them together. As hag es we apply one scale and kind of taxation to one elan and one to another; and as long as any different share of political and electoral privileges and influence are distributed between the classes, so long that social war will continue which at present disuse* confuses, retards, and neutralises every thing we attempt or do. We have no objection to consider numbers and pro perty as the joint basis of representation, taking it tor granted that intelligence follows property. But this principle once adopted, we can never admit that one species of property is to be endowed with an ascendancy over another because it is supposed to be more conservative, ancient, or respectable. The persistaire in doing this will only continue to set one species of property against another, until com munism and democracy walk in to swallow up both. But above all things, let us have a principle, an intelligible principle to go upon. Let us have no compromise, no bargain, no tacking of a whir bill between popular rights and aristocratic prin.. Humbug of that kind, we may feel assured, i l i e r i g a. not be much longer tolerated in England. THOCGII there may not be any formula of So cialism to which all its disciples would subscribe— though in France it takes the thapo more immedi ately of political revolutionism, and here the charac ter more exclusively of social and industrial changes --Socialism, in whateveqvuse it appears, is the most painful fact of the age. It grows; in spite of refu tation, it lives—nay. flourishes ; and even in its very vagueness, it has a secret power over great bodies of working men, who cannot be persuaded that, be tween labour and capital, the natural relations are those: of benevolence and concord, but, on the con trary, believe them to be those of oppression and tyranny. This is very deplorable ; but when the classes fees maned by such feelings are told by men of education, intelligence. and a sense of responsibility that there are easy remedies for the evils they hold themselves to be the victims of—when they are taught that there are ways by which the profits of capital may be transferred to labour—and when the very prin ciple of accumulation and consequently the agency of civilisation is thus attacked, it will not do merely to deplore this state of things. It must be watched, attended to, analysed, cared for, and, when and where reasonable. must be satisfied too. We must not rely too much for safety on the presumed freedom of the Anglo-Saxon race from such influences; or imagine that, secure in our habits of individual self reliance, we can look on with in difference at the inculcation of this heresy ; or trust altogether to the beneficial effects of free-trade on the nuterial condition of our working classes. The events of continental Europe for the last three years are a dreadful commentary on the fancied sceunty of national optimism. Their least lesson to every government is to be on its guard; their best, to re move by times every grievance, and make every con- cession MAY fix tile= at whet saidikes to r favoarit=st a ralise.

But, pushed beyond very narrow limits, these use ciations must, we think, faiL For, after all, they leave competition, against which they are meant to ~opd the workman, untouched. The tailors of meet may form themselves into one moods rim mai those of Piccadilly into another; but their imparals societies are as much rivals in trade as Mr. Dr MUSTER and Baron STULZ ; and, being suds, competition will, as before, determine prices. For a while, indeed, the character of the mods ton may be improved ; their habits of ardor aai industry may be better organised, and they thew Waco submit to discipline. But even this would mew, if they could absorb the whole tailor-6Na of England into such communities and destroy in it the application of individual capital. For, then, without having got rid of competition, they would have abated those agencies of superior skill, enter prise, and promptitude, on which the higher deve lopment of every trade so much depends. But, say the promulgators of the co-operative the ory, we would remedy competition by putting all trades into guilds; and they should regulate wages and profits for all the associations of the same trade. Now, setting aside the consideration that guilds would constitute an interference with the indepen dent and free exercise of individuals such u is espe cially the duty of every state to secure is sub jects, these gentlemen forget, or overlook, that great fact in the history of industry—popu lation. They could only regulate wages (and by re gulating they mean keep up wages), by restricting population; by dictating and prescribing the numbers of families; and by making procreation beyond cer tain limits an offence against labour. And, until they can deal with the number of hands to be em ployed, the notion of a Central Guild to regulate the price of work and the rates of wages is a mere folly. Without the means of regulating wages these as sociations must always be at a great disadvantage in their rivalry with capitalists. They cannot pay adequately for head-work ; they caunot command the skill and sagacity which so often raise a journey man into a great manufacturer—still less, know ledge of markets, iudgmenttaste, foresight of events, and the other qualities of the most real and influen tial character, but difficult to remunerate when pos seined on the co-operative principles. Associations, when so endowed, will soon feel their power, secede, and set up for themselves. In the same way the best workman will discover that he can get better paid by working as a journeyman, or by setting up as a master. And thus associations will quickly Is., the best heads and the best hands that co gitation attracted into them originally. Nor will the ordinary motives that provoke exer tion induce a man who divides profits with ten or twenty other men to put forth the same energy, keenness of vigilance, incessant thought, and un flagging attention as if working for himself. And then, too, the risks of fraud, carelessness and incom petency, what provision can a co-operative associa tion make against them? They will be endless and immense. One party in this great industrial heresy seems to feel all this : it would fall back on Christianity, justice, equity, and other such fine sounding names, without, however, specifying the measures which dam grand principles dictate. Another party take another line, and assert that employers should never go below a respectable rate of wages which shall be fixed by custom as the normal law of the trade; and of them a few pursue this proposition out to its logical consequence, that all labourers who cannot find employment at this rate should be undisguiseilly made paupers. But what then? The old evils of society would still remain; only their effect would be concentrated on the miserable supernumeraries. Nay, new evils would be added to the old ones, for the general progress would be arrested in this extin guishment of the stimulus to invention and improve meat supplied by the extension of the pressure of samaity to all.

Our correspondent writes: LISBON, SEPT. 8. Senhor Ferrao has yielded to public opinion, and justified himself from the charge of bnbcry; this will appear an extraordinary occurrence to the British reader. I will, therefore, explain it to him in a few words. Senhor Ferrao is accused of an offence. lie did not, like others, brave public opinion, nor set the courts at defiance, but he placed himself volun tarily in the character of an accused, went into court and demanded an accusation ; no one ap pearing to sustain any . charge against him, he becomes necessarily acqufited ; which is a justifica tion, pro forma, upon which sentence is given ; he then stands in the eye of the law in, the position, not of a person who has been tried and ac quitted, but of a person who has never been accused ; which will approach nearer the English presumption that amen is innocent till he be found guilty, suppos ing him to be accused only, but not brought to trial. Opinions regarding Senhor Ferrao have been given by many lawyers, that he might have raised an action against the defamer, but, as the name in the books had existed, and been subsequently erased, no one could have sustained the charge; the process of justification was, therefore, the only course Senhor Ferrao could adopt. The charge against Ferrao arose out of complicated accounts of the contractors of tobacco, and is now explained by Pimenta, one of the cashiers—that some one applied to him for a loan of 2,093,800 reis, upon bilis, some accepted by Fermo, the others having no reference to him, the borrower enjoining Pimento by no means to let Fer mo know he possessed those bills. The money was given and an entry made, but some of the bills be coming due, or the person who pledged them desiring to show they . were still in his possession, requested them, promising to restore them or an equivalent. This not having been soon done, the sum was putdown as a bad debt, Fermo's name being entered in lieu of the person who borrowed the money. Afterwards the identical person reappeared, gave a fresh gua rantee, and ultimately paid 1,600,000 reis on the Ist of March, 1849, and 493,600 role on the 16th No- vember same year. Pimenta mentions other transac tions that do not bear upon the question. I there fore omit them, considering it the duty of a public writer not only to abstain from what is irrelevant, but not to deal in probabilities and improbabilities, where a fact is on record. Ferrao has not yet re entered the ministry ; indeed, his re-entrance into it is extremely doubtful. The two branches of Cabralites have united, putting forward the Duke de Terceira as the nominal leader of the party. Their object is to gain the election, failing which, a Cabralista revolution and consequent civil war (if they are successful) may be expected; but the good spint of the people bids fair to frustrate all their rash schemes. The Miguelites are on the qui rice, and say their king will return triumphant in the spring. The report of the yellow fever being at Oporto has been officially contradicted; the contradiction is couched in doubtful terms. It is said news of the death of the king's father has arrived, but there is no official notice of it up to the present. The pensions in the Lisbon district, as well without as those with consideration, for the month of August 1831, are ordered for payment, in equal proportions, beginning with the lit day of Sep tember and ending on the 30th. Pay is also ordered to be made to the officers of regiments, naval bat talions (marines), and the officers of the navy serving on board the vessels of war in the Tagus for the month of August, 1851 ; also for May, 1850, to eight more departments; and for August, 1831, to eight other departments, naval, military, civil, and judicial. The treaty of commerce and navigation concluded between Sardinia and Portugal has been exchanged. The Myrmidon steamer came in on the 28th alt. for coals, on her way from Plymouth to the coast of Africa, and sailed again on the 28th. GERMANY. The 'Caner Zeitung has letters from Hanover of the bth inst., stating that u Customs Convention has been concluded between the kingdoms of Prussia and Ila over. No details arc stated of the conditions on either side, but it is surmised that the principles recognised are those of free trade, or, at least, that the basis is essentially different from the protective system, which has hitherto been adopted by the Prussian Zollverein. SWEDEN.
