IT is scarcely to be expected that the rising, or even the rims, generation of our readers should take anythieg like the same interest in American affairs that is felt by the old folks who remember the fresh traditions of the war of Independence, and who, in their youth, connected their beet upirations for po pular welfare with the honoured MOM of the founders of this great Republic. The younger gene ration as hardly be altogether careless about Ameri can politics, considering how they involve our own prospects of ear or peace, and how they illustrate the great social questions which are stirring all oivi. Heed countries to the heart; but it is only the future with its hopes, and not also the past with its memories, which interests the middle-aged and the young. They feel little or nothing at the mention of names whose sound warms the blood in the hearts of the old, and rouses the calm spirit of age like a trumpet call. Yet all may be congratulated on the privilege of seeing the western republic girding itself up for reform, rising to the great resolve to free itself from its:one awful sures, snare, and disgrace,— the predominance of a slave-holding policy in the, National Council ; and the warrant for such rejoicing is the re-appearance of venerable names which I were prominent in the same cause forty, sixty, or eighty years ago. During the insolent rule of the slave-holding power at Washington (and through Washington, in the entire foreign and general do mestio policy of the United States), the good old citizen names disappeared from public affairs. From the time when Ex-President ADAMS we. insulted in Congress, and the national right of petition, upheld by him, was swept away for a course of years, the best men retreated into privacy and ►ilence. Some who halted between two opinions, and endeavoured to preserve official life at the expense of the constitution and its princi ple., broke down utterly. Some are politically ruined, and others are dead, broken-hearted. For a quarter of a century, affairs have been committed to unknown men—chosen for their obscurity, because they were wanted as tools. Mr. Faufozz had, in the midst of this state of things, the finest opportunity offered him that man could desire. Near the beginning of his term as Vice-President, the President died, and Mr. Plummets went to the White House, by the law made and provided for such an occasion. Taking his seat in the Presidential chair, unembarrassed by election trammels—free to an extent that no other President had ever been—he might have exercised his freedom to govern according to his own convictions, se no recent President had done. It is enough to say that be, a northern man, passed the Fugitive Slave Bill. When he had done that, all wu over with him; and now, though he has been pat forward by the Know-Nothing party in their hour of decadence, he is merely the candidate of the Slave States (or of a part of them), and the Slave State. are not going to rule the Union hence forth. When President Pour was undergoing his inauguration at Wuhington, and the vast thoroegh fare of Pennsylvania Avenue was crowded up to the very doors of the Capitol, a single voice oried oat, in answer to the shout of " POLK for ever r u Who is JAMES POLK r The significant question was caught up and repeated by the entire crowd, amidst shout, of laughter, in which the new President himself could not help joining. From that day forward it has been necessary for the whole people to ask the same question about every new ►nd successful candi date for the highest offices of the state. There has been a long reign of puppets during the years of southern aggression and northern acquiescence. Such a state of things could not last for ever; and it appears that the latest tool has been of too low a quality for the purposes for which he was to be need. President PUMICE, of whoa his Native north could never be proud, is to the last degree unpopular in the Scud. He has exposed the Slave States to the danger of a war which they have no desire whatever to meet or sustain; and, by his encouragement of the aggressive party in Kansas, he has precipitated that conflict of principle on the ground of the C3natitution, which it has been the grand object of the [loath to defer till it had annexed enough of new territory still nearer the Equator to enable it to defy the North. Sr. directly Involved, the Utica mut give way Nether than the groundwork of the Republic. There was a time when President WAYLAID was thought to submit too quietly to the censorship or the Soothers proms, which reprinted his " Moral Philosophy " with the omission of passages bearing on social rights and liberties; but he has spoken out la his old ago, and from his retirement. Most interesting of all is a recent anecdote from Coanectiont, of the octogenarian, Profes sor SILLIMAN, who has somany Mends in this country, and in ovary country where soignee is honoured. As editor of the Americas Jewrisal of Science and Arts, he has been for half a lifetime in relation with the enlightenment of all civilised countries. The large ness of his mind and gentleness of his manner have give■ him a most unusual influents with successive geoeratioas of students in Yale University. This influents he used in a very striking way on the even ing of the 20th of last month, when the people of Newhaven met in their largest church to consider the affairs of Eansu. Explaining that he regarded this as a ease in which armed resistance was both virtuous and expedient, Professor flimuearg headed a list of donors of Sharp's rifles, which cost 25 dol lars each. Pastors, deacons, ladies (through their husbands and brothers), followed with their pledges; and the old professor sat by enjoying the procedure. At length a Mr. TYLER said, amidst great applause, " I will pledge one of Sharp's rifles from the junior class of Yale College." On this " Professor SILLIMAN rose, and sweeping, the galleries with his eye, said, 'There are four classes in Yale College."' The sensation was imagoes*. Probably every youth in the college will now declare for constitutional right in Kansas. These things are no trifle. It has been a matter of serious and growing concern to the friends , of the republic that the best of the cilium have re• treated from public affairs, and left the conduct of the state to political gamblers and their tools; and we ought to hail, with a duo sense of its importance, such an event as the re•appeerance in the political world of the QUINCYS, the WAYLAND% and the SILLIMANS. Their action indicates a crisis, and is itself most critical. The beet hope is that such phenomena may warn the citizens back into the good old way of choosing a known man for President. An obscure man is, by the very tenure of his office, a tool, unless, indeed, he betrays his proposers. The world, within and without the United States, would rather see Colonel Fzutortr, or any other man who has a mind and purpose of his own, than another Fluatoits or PIEKCI in the seat of government ; and considering the recent outbreak of anti-slavery feeling and opinion in Vir ginia and other slave territory, the conversion of Southern immigrants into free settlers u soon as they breathe; Kansas air, the emberranments caused by the desperate proceedings in Nicaragua, and the other filibustering troubles immediately arising from a slave-holding policy, it seems not improbable that ere long • man will be chosen fee President who is more of • muter than a servant in politics— more of a mainspring than a tool. However this may be, some great change must be at hand when grey-Warta:len come forth from their well-earned shade of repose to share again the heat and burden of the day. We have some reason to believe that the Emperor of the French will be present at the great navel review at Spithead on Wednesday next, and that oar Admiralty have platted three steamers at the disposal of his Imperial Majesty and his saits.— Maachesle► Guardian (this day). We have rearon to pollees that the government of the colony of Victoria has been offered by Mr. Labouchere to the Earl of Elgin. We shall rejoins to hear of its acceptance. Mr. Thomas, a Madras civil servant, has, we hear, been appointed by the Crown a director of the But India Compvvr a.des the lato Charter Act. The Archbishop of Canterbary intends to move ec Monday that the Lord Chancellor's Church Disci pline Bill be read that day six months. Daring the reign of this wrongheaded and unpo pular man it is that some of the old names are coming up spin, which show that there is a good fight to be fought, and that hops is once mows ea das aide of the right. During the commotion in Boston, after the tradition of the slave Bonus, the aged en. president of Harvard University, Josram Qunecv, appeared on the platiorm at a public meeting, and told certain take, and revived some stirring memories of the " Indepeadtace days." Being between eighty and niamy, he could remember many things, and tell of more than even his hearers knew. After a retired life, remarkable for its abatises* from polities, 'OMAR Quiscy came forward, sa his fathers had done, to speak for the right, and warn sgainet the wrong, in the day of peril to the republic. he sod parmiii* !"''t ! 7 t las lOW iffiker of the Representatives at Wash ingtsn, is that his grandfather was present at "the Boston tea-time" and one of " the Baotou tes-party." These are Massachosatte men. A month ago, when a meeting was called at Albany to consider how best to testify sympathy with the free settlers of Kansas, a white-haired man appeared among the speaking whose preesece decided the counsels and the event of the day. The venerable 01.1LITY SIIITH szpund himself to the fatigue and excitement, whist his strength could ill bear, beanie it was a day wheelie good citizen should stay at home. He spoke with i astonishing power and effeat, as may be seen in the fact that five thousand dollars were raised on the spot, on the first mention of money being needed. " Money ie needed for Kansas," said the aged patriot, "in the first place, to buy bread for her people; for, while they should have been left in peace to cultivate the soil, they have been corapelkd to muster in camps—to carry arms by day, and sleep upon them at night. They need nosey, ales, to procure arms to repel ow rap and laysmism. Mamma they mast have. There never was swab ea opportunity, as the present state of affairs is Lammas presents, of killing slavery.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE. PIEDMONT AND AUBTBIA. w. reed in the Paris correspondence of La Hard : Oa the eve of quitting Paris the plealpoteutieries appear to be vrry thooglatflal and gloomy. Why ia this? They have signed the peace; ought they sot to be °meant aad sanguine ? The cause of their sadness I have already inti mated.

The Minister of Victor Emmanuel uttered his prophecy with some show of twos. At the moment the Pied "ipotesi, army from the Crimea is about to eater the Gulf of Spezais, Auntie brings her troops to the frontier of Piedmont. It is easy to foresee the possibility of a oosilict. England will sustain Piedmont. France also would cer tainly interfere, with the object of recomeiling the revolu tion with the Lancets of the Pope. Austria—who left Ramie to combat singly with the Allied Powers—could Austria, in the care of a conflict in Italy, rely upon Ruda ?

The Congress of Paris has met twenty-three times, the concluding sitting of to-day included. The Patric affirms, on the faith of a Vienna corre spondent, whom it believes to be well informed, that the announcement already made in several foreign journals that the Congress has declared against the onion of the two Desubian Principalities is well founded. The Rents was firma to-day; there were no great fluctuations. The lat prices were 73.60 and 73.95, there being* rise of 10c. for cub, and 15c. for aro count. Bank of France rose 25r., and CI edit Mobilise 60f. Railways improved considerably. Orleans, 25f.; Northern, 35f.; Lyons, 30f.; Mediterranean, 10f. ; Grand Centrals, 20L; Austrian and Victor Emmanuel rose 2r. 60a each. The corvette Duchayla, which has been ordered to go to Spithead for the grand naval review of the 23rd, will be commanded by Rear-Admiral Jurien de la Gravire. Among the officers selected to accom pany him are Captain de Belvdze, Lieutenant Zede, who was severely wounded on the quarter deck of the Ville de Paris, while standing by the side of Admiral Hamelin ; IL Hamelin (the son of the admi ral) aids-decamp to the Ministerof Marine; M.Buquet, a cone chef in the naval office, and M. Durand Broger, the marine painter, who has jest returned from the Crimea, where he had been attached to the squadron from the commencement of the campaign. The Dochayla will leave Cherbourg on Sunday morning. Some apprehension is felt that the Senate may for the first time ran restive, and put a veto upon the bill imposing a tax upon carriages. They can only do this, according to the constitution, upon the ground that the bell is unconstitutional ; but, on the other hand, if they choose to call it unconstitutional, there is no appeal from their verdict. A plausible pretext might be found in the fact that the bill den not specify the amount of the tax. Many of the senators who were stimulated, nay almost ordered, by government to set up their carriages in order to give employment to the working classes, feel deeply aggrieved that they are now to be called upon to suffer a novel description of taxation. A few of the more splenetic senators may, perhaps, indulge is some angry speeches in the dark oonciliabule of the Luxembourg Palace, but I have no ides that the Senate will have the pluck to reject the measure. They must be too consedoss of their insignificance to take any such lil e r se ts. That a law proposed by the Crown, end p after a public discussion by representatives of the people supposed to have been freely sleeted by universal suffrage, should lit, for any effectual pur pose, rejected by a pensioned body of conscript fathers sitting in secret avulse*, is something too absurd to be thought of. The Courrier de 'Marseille states that the munici pality of that city have resolved on giving a grand banquet to Marshal Warier and his staff, whose ar rival there is expected about the end of this month. A Paris letter of the 14th, in the Emancipation of Brussels, says : " In conformity with academic cus tom, the Duke de Broglie was presented yesterday to the is - uip..lor It the Tuileries by M.

PLANS FOR INFANTR Y AND CAVALRY BAR RACKS EXHIBITING AT BURLINGTON HOUSE. The government have most praiseworthily taken into coasileration the subject of constructing proper bar racks both fur the Infantry and Cavalry. By the term proper barracks" we Milk homes for large nurnb.rs of soldiers which stall be adapted to the military uses for which they are destined, gad in which the moral and physical coo& rt cf the Gametes shall be moat ccapletely secured, regitteatal stations, in oboe, made as useful, com mAlious, healthful, and agreeable as the intelligence of this age will admit of. To this end a committee, composed almost massively of military men spdointed by Lard Pan ama to obtain evidence upon the subject of barracks, issued la tLe course of last yeas two advertisements inviting archi tects to submit plans for the said soldier:quarters. The result was that oa the 30th of September last 89 p'aus for infantry, sod tweaty•ftve pleas for cavalry barracks were produced.

SHOCKING ACTS OP ASSASSINATION IN RUPERT STREET. One of the most daring iota of machination ever perpetrated in this country cccorrsd last night, shortly after eight o'clock, in Rupert-street, Haymarket. The asaaasia is an Italian, named Fosehini ; and, unhap pily, in this confusion which arose at the moment he com mitted his dialool cal crime, he effected his escape, and up to the present moment has evaded the most active search of the police officers. The scene of the tragedy was an It.lien and French restaurant, kept by a native of the Papal States, named Louis Stucehi, at 46, Rupert-street, Haymarket. This per son is at present In the provinces, end the crime, which will give to his house • ternb a notoriety, will therefore be first communicated to him through the newspapers. Among the foreigners who were accustomed to assemble at Stneehes restaurant were Frustum Rossi, Carlo De audio, and Pietro Chitin, all natives of the same put of Italy. The assassin Fotchini has been a visitor only during • comparatively recent period, but from his family and coonezions having been known to Rossi and the other Italians, he had been admitted into their society, and fre qaently passed his evenings in Rupert-street. At about a (touter past 8 o'clock last evening Rases, Chien, and De Rudio we re conversing together in the back room on the ground fluor, on cursory subjects, when Foschini entered, and, producing a pack of cards, suggested that the whole party should play a game together. RO4Si objected, and usigned as a reason that he wished to go home early, upon which Foschini repeated his request, and volunteered to fetch some beer from a neighboueiog public-house as an inducement to keep the party together. He did so, and on re-entering the restaurant offered Hotel and the ethers the free ase of the bemuse be had furnished. Something was said u to the bad quality of the beer, and Foschini went out to exchange it, returniog pretently afterward., and again joining his cmpanions in drinking. There was a fifth Italian present at the titer, in the person of Carlo Routh —a man of education and birth, but reduced by circum stances to aft as waiter at Stucchi's restaurant. In a short time after Foschini had rejoined the party, and before any game of cards had been c menaced, Foschini complained of feeling ill, and requested that one of the tarty would assist him to the the p of a medial man. Rust, anxious to go home, volunteered to do so, and testing upon his arm, apparently in a state of suffering, Foschini left the hoase and proceeded up Rupert-street, Rest's in tention being to cooduct him to the nearest chemist's shop for the purpose of obtaining some attentive draught. They bad arrived at the corner of Richmond-street, eppuite to Brettell's printing-office, Rossi rallying Foschini, and endea vouring to persuade him that he was not so ill as he affected to be, when the fe rmer, releasing his arm from Peschini's peep, ecordnatolly touched with his hand a hard substance within tie STOCKS/ of the latter, which he at once knew to be a poignerd or stiletto, Rossi immediately charged him with postesaion of the weapon, and asked him what be meant. Fo-chini made no reply, but at once seemed to have recovered h e strength, and with hosed retraced his steps to the reetsurant. Rossi had, it swears, some know ledge of Foschini's desperate character, and from his sullen manner of being qest'oned, he felt somewhat alarmed. On readmit( Stucchi's hoe.° Rossi was in the act of pli cies his hand upon the do n-bandle, for the purpose of entering, when Foschini, who was following closely behind, struck him a violent blow ever the shoulder with his poigoatd. This blow fortunately took only a alight effect, having been stopped by one of the upper ribs. Rossi instantly exclaimed, "What are you doing, assassin!" Bet before he had, time to recover himselt he received another blow on the arm, sod, ?eremitic into the house, he was followed by Foschini, who continued to strike at him with his poinard. Chieea , De Radio, and the waiter Rouelli wire in the front 'ellen of the ground floor when this attack took place, and on discovering Rossi retreating from the mania they ran to his assistance. Foschini then dealt ha deadly blows against all present. Rossi, faint from lots of hhod , rushed into the street, and, calling aloud for help, haunted to the surest surgeon's, where his wounds were dressed, and from hers lie was conveyed to Charing-cro a Hospital. As soon se Roesi left the house Foschini, with an artful cannier, tuned off the gas, and then in comparative darknest continued hie murderous attack. Itonelli, the waiter, who lad been fore most in endeavouring to seine the assassin, fell first, dan gerously wounded in the head and abdomen, and, indeed, in all pens of the body. De Rudio nest succumbed, and Chien elo-e remained to gr,pp:e with the eleassio, when Foschini, finding, it is sup{ o-ed, his torongtA failing, retreated into tho street, followed by China. On finding himself interned, within a few yards, the anemia turned again upon Chit se, end struck him • severs him in the abdomen, front the effects of which China fell, still retaining strength, however, to call upon the bystanders, of whom nearly twenty were at band, to meet the assassin. The sight of the poieerl and the determined oppnrance of Penchini, however, seemed to strike a plate ioto every heart, and the assassin was actually allowed to escape without moiesta tioo, no toFce coutsblts being at this time near. As soon as the resteurant was entered • dreadful sight presented itself. apparently in a dying state, was stretched upon the AIM, blood fkw ng freely from wounds in every part of his body, and De Rudio w.s in • tainting state also from hemorrhage. Assistance was at o ce pro• cured, and all the injured persons were conveyed to the Cbaring-crus Respite', where the be t medical aid was In stantly aff toted by Dr. Gelding and Mr. Hemlock, the chief physician and surgeon to the institution. The use of R. mclii was at 02C1. pronounced to leo a most dangerous one, and, under the adore of the medical men, his deposition was at once taken by Inspector Nrke, of the V div:sion, under whose care all the wounded men had been conveyed to the hoepitel. M. Francois Napoleon, an Italian, and M. Albert, inter preter at Mullocr:ugh.itreet Police-court, were sent for, and as soon as they had errived, the evilest mate's statement was alten—Mr. J. T.
