His renown had become incorporated with the national annals long before his actual departure. Ile had so far acquired the prero gatives conferred by extreme age upon the illustrious that he was enabled, while still in the complete pos session and in the full vigour of his faculties, to appreciate the estimate likely to be formed by pos terity in re gard to th e scope end splendour of his reputation. There w rs someti,in g remarkable, if not altogether unprecedented, in this surprising prolong ation of a life BO di silnguished by eminent vbieve. meri ts. 132 ginni ng o n April 29th, 1769, and termi nating on September 14 , 1852 --it embraced an epoch more prolific in wonderful event s t h an any other (humanly speaking) of which t h e world has record. Associated with the majority of those events, ARTHUR W E I LESLEY had the adbvyanttahgaet extendedof rehending ex'stence them in their entirety, which rendered him, at Flit, the s°.ll''TY SP,!vivor of his earlier contemporaries. It is impassible to stand over the grave w hi c h has just opened to receive the remains of our veter a n soldier without emotions of a very peculi ar c h aracter — rem i n di ng us, L. 73 12;5 funeral obsequies cannot f. , ;1 to do, of the lapse cf time which has gradually but inexorably absorbed all th e grandeur and puissance of the last age of giants —an age more momentous than that of ALEXANDER, and more memorable, than that of CZSAR, more glorious than that of CONSTANTINE, and more chivalric than that of CHARLEBIAGNa--the age of one greater than all combined, the age of th e roo s t as t on i s hi ng adven turer the earth has ever known, that of the Em perorp and King, th e Conqueror and L awg i ver, NAro . Connected as the fam e of our great Cap tain was SO very intimately with that marvellous s ae it possesses for us, at this juncture, a singular ‘ation. It recalls to mind, by a v ar i e t y o f sip •‘: V I A'S P Is ~''~.. ~~ _~. nificant circumstances, the fact which every succes sive year had, for a considerfole time peat, been ren dering more and more perceptible—namely, that the military labours of the departed were as inoperative towards the end proposed as they were, undoubtedly, productive of expense to the country, or of glory to himself and his companions in arms. Thirty-seven years have elapsed since the crowning victory of Waterloo —or as our neighbours are accustomed to term it— cette funeste et glorieuse jour de Mont Saint Jean— and the gold and the blood squandered by England in dictating to France who should be her Sovereign, have been lavished to no other peepose than to enable the vanquished race to avenge in a brilliant and almost miraculous manner their political misfortunes and their national vicissitudes. The effete family of the Bourbons, after being dragged beck by foreign armies to their throne in the Tuileiies over half a million of the dead bodies of their fellow-countrymen, have been ignominiously expelled beyond the fron tiers which their selfish policy had caused to be dese crated with a view to merely their own personal ag grandizement. This treatment of the house of CAPET, moreover, has by no means been restricted to the elder branch. It has been impartially extended elso :: e tolen th e precious h b to the yo unger — no t, h owev er, until after a n extraordinary instance of domestic turpitudeywvoohad covered ting h f a o d r b t e h e e n manifested—the son of that Eg a his name with indelible infamy death of Louis XVI., having diadem" from the false spoken tyrant C HARLES X. and " put it in his pocket," under cover of the mean and swindling trick of a hackney stock-jobber ! After the Elder and the Younger Branch of the Bourbons had thus disgraced the royal office to which they had been originally restored by means of the banded Kings of Europe, France avenged the proceedings • of 1815 by th a t sudden explosion of popular feeling in 1848, which rendered the treaty o f Vienna so much mere waste paper, torn into frag ments and trampled into the dust by the leaders of a revolution. The Duke of WELLINGTON became conscious, moreover, that in other respects, before the hour of his death ariived, the battle of Wa terloo was fruitless of any of the grand results intended b y the councils of the Allied So vereigns. He perceived that after a little more than a quarter of a century had elapsed the great name of NAPOLEON was more than ever invested with an in destructable and magical popularity ! nd this in spite of the treachery of MARMONT in 1814, and the treachery of FOUCHE in 1815, in spite of the capitu lation of Paris and of the captivity of St. Helena! CHATEAUBRIAND had said, even at the time when his noble intellect Was most infatuated for the Bourbons, and most prejudiced against the Bonapartes, that it was only necessary to raise a grey great-coat and a three-cornered hat at the end of a pole in any part of the French provinces in order to create a rising o the whole population. The Duke of WELLINGTON had lived long enough to witness that strange predic tion strong rs coming from the lips of the apologist of the house of CAPET, and of the traducer of the house of NAroLEoN—singularly and signally verified. He had survived sufficiently to behold, as it were, in the villages of France a thou. sand vignette illustrations of the beautiful brilad BERANGER—" " On parkra de sa gloire Sous le chaume bien longtemps: L'humble toit dans cinquante ans eonnaitra peg d'autre histoire." It h that reflection more than almost any other which forces itself upon the consideration of the more reflec tive—whether in France or in Englend—at the pre sent moment, when we find ourselves standing upon the brink of that grave which is about to close over the remains of the Duke of WELLINGTON. It is a reflection the force of which must be recognised not less by the systematic enemies than by the sincere admirers of his Highness the PRINCE-PRESIDENT. For the election of that personage to the chief magistracy of the French Republic must be acknow ledged on all hands to be a tribute of homage, of gratitude, and of devotion offered by thirty-five millions to the memory of the defeated of Waterloo and of the captive of St. Helena. This circumstance before the close of his prolonged existence must have forced itself, we doubt not, somewhat painfully upon the re cognition of the calm and severe judgment of ARTHUR, Duke of Wellington. Thus has it come to pass that even within the lifetime of our great Cap tain, the exertions of the deEpot3 of Christendom have proved futile in strangling the will of a great people, those exertions which were only rendered even for a while triumphant through the aid strangely afforded to the coalition by the English Government—the aid of nearly 800,000,0001. expended by Mr. PITT, and of so many remarkable victories achieved by the redoubtable sword of the Duke of WELLINGTON. Upon the future annalist— may we not venture to assert, with implicit confidence in the serene impartiality of his judgment, upon Sir ARCHIBALD ALISON in the continuation of his "History of Modern Europe ?"—will devolve the duty of deducing yet more clearly from these events the moral which we have here dared to intimate by anti cipation. Whatever may be the secret and selfish promptings of our national interest--So may it ever be with those who would presume to tamp ar w i t h the liberties of a great people, endeavouri ng t o thrust back upon an unwilling race a monarchy supported only by foreign bayonets and to subvert the rights of an isolated community with the banded rrmies of an entire continent I Within the last five or six years a great revolution has taken place in Ireland. In 1846, when the staple food of that country wes swept away by a disease which destroyed it and left a large population to famine, that revolution commenced. Emigration im mediately, and es if of necessity, was resorted to, for though the Celt much loves his native land, the lov e of life was stronger, and Ireland was abandoned by ehousande and tens of thousends of her inhabitants when they found that if they remained it would be with Famine staring them in the face. The agrarian links were snapped, and far lends were resorted to, with the prospect of comfortable existence theve. It 's on ascertained face, (published 'under Preliament7ry authority) that from 1841 to 1851 the population of Ireland had sustained a decrease of 1,659,330, end that, in the same decade, 1 , 2 89,133 persons, or more than three-fourths of this decrease, had been lost to Ireland by emigration. T bee decrease in the population of Ireland may best it had increased sh "fn by the Official returns under the different uensns Acts, In 1821 it was 6 801 827. In 1831 to 7 767 401. , In ' 1841 it was 8,196,597. In 1841, when 41 , when the last census WF9 taken, overper cent. 1,6 it Was 6,515,79 4, , . Snowing the decrease in the list ten years to be Opoe,rooo annum,.

So that a ' h g' lo bein g tural population of Ireland. chance, if taken out for every quart put in—the wholeefairct years. It may b e swept away in a few emigration proceeds at this rate, of being entirely: worth while to add, that the remittances from North America to Ireland, to defray the passage-money of relatives and friends, was 990,0001. in,1851. This is money saved from hard labour, not gained in any lottery of luck at the gold mines, and devoted by honest Industry to the cause of Affection. It com pletely, E ',cause practically, gives the lie to the oft repeat2d slander which accuses the poorer Irish of wanting en aptitude for labour. On the contrary, no people work so hard, where they find their work paid for, and to send over nearly Ore Million sterling, to help others to emigrate, shows prudential principlesand practice of no ordinary character. The dad Land and Emigration Commissioners, who dad cognizance of and reported on this fact, further peocolrarietimatheamt ig t r h a e n se ts, r fi em rs it t ta s n a c v e i s ne a s r . e msaudnehouh the i s , elf- t as ef be t e h n e the.pro e id - ence (born of deep affection, if you will,) of exiled Irish, whom certain . writers systema tically d elight to libel as " imbruted," "idle," end "careless." En We have yet to learn that to relations have remitted their sa vingsemigrant and friends in anything like the same rati o , In face when in Ire land, where his toil , is ill-requited , or goes to swell the frt of bopeie unesofthe absen tee anti the ' r a iddl eman , th ere s i sort unezi its Work , Out of Ireland, and particularly i n N or th A mer i ca, where toil is much required and well requitted, the Irish emigrant feels himself in a new and much improved condi tion ; he has broken the chain of circumstance and situation ; he has advanced into the citizenship of property, for his hands supply more than his humble necessities require ; he has achieved, far away, what was intangible in his native lend, a recognition of the Dignity of Labour. This question has attracted the attention of the sta tistical section of the British Association, at Belfast. The statements we have here given were referred to, with a view to consider not only the excessive Emigra tion from Ireland, but the reparative agencies in progress in that country. Mr. LocKE, who apps ers to have closely studied the rationale of the question, states th ese agencies to be—" lstalhe general progress of th e Pople, industrial education and sociel ; 2d, a well-defined law of tenure, worked out in the spirit of its intention by the mutual good feel ings and good sense of landlords and tenants ; and idly, the improvement of the labouring classes, in cluding cottiers and small farmers, whose profits or wages have been hitherto insufficient for decent main tenance." He said,—" Now, the first-mentioned is abundently manifest in the decrease of crime, and the increase of agricultural improvement and general en terprise throughout the country. Of the second, we may entertain a well-grounded expctation, the mater being in competent and zealous hands. And the diminution of Poor-law taxation, and the substi tution of independent capitalists for distressed or in solvent landed proprietors, who were unhappily inca pacitated, hem fulfilling the responsibilities of their position, afford strong warranty for the improvement of the labouring classes, which is indeed already felt in the rise of wages, and progress of industry in all its departments, agricultural, manufacturing, and commercial."—The agency here alluded to is the Act for the Sale of Encumbered Estates—a measure which, with some partial evil, has teen pro ductive of great good. As OLIVER CROMWELL said of the execution of CHARLES STUART, "it was a fatal necessity," arising out of circumstances which.legis lative wisdom could neither anticipate nor control. By means of it the nrmber of proprietors of land in Ireland hes been more than trebled —over one million acres, or one-twentieth of the surface of Ireland (ex clusive of water), has changed hands; upwards of 7,000,0001. ha s b een pro d uced b y the sales, and (in cluding 1,000,000/. to encumbrancers who became buyers) over 4,000,0001., or nearly two-thirds of the produce of the sales, have been distributed, throwing this vast amount into quickened circulation. Best of all, two-thirds of the purchasers have given 2,0001. and under for th e i r l o t s , th us mak i ng an agr i cu lt ure , middle class—one of the great necessities of Irelancl. If anythin g w ill pu t an en d , l eg i timately, to the Tift gration which depopulates Ireland, it is this. Capital is, even now, in course of being introduced into Ire land—probably between three or four millions ster ling, or ab out h a lf w h at hag been got in from t h e sales of en cum b ere d estates. A new class of pea santry will be created, and we sh a ll h ear , no further, of a day' s l a b our for foal - pence or sixpence. The Ater days of Ireland are commencing. Amongst the freaks of Irish Members it is really almost amusing to find some seventeen of them (a kind of postscript to the Tenant Leaguers) actually banding together in behalf of Religious Equality. Amongst the nam es we see , i n d e ed, that of Mr. SHARMAN CRA WFORD , w h ose cons istency on thi s subject none could impugn ; but to read over a l'st of intemperate or zealous Catholics, and to learn that they have enrolled themselves as friends of Religious Equality—risum tencatis anzici? What evidence have they ever given that they really wish for it ? Have they hitherto co-operated with societies or indi viduals who have simply and honestly sought that object ? There is an Anti-State Church Society, to which all its honourable opponents give the full credit of singleness of purpose and intelligent action, how ever much they object to its principles. Has it ever been aided by Roman Catholic gold or influence ? Other Christian denominations, we believe even Catholics themselves, have, by memorials and resolu tions, and even deputations, endeavoured to awaken their co-religionists in the United States to a sense of the incompatibility between their common faith and the horrors of negro slavery. They have thus shown that a Christian community in one country might, and ought to, expostulate with a kindred community in another country, on conduct discreditable to their Christian name. What have Catholics done in this way ? What me3ia l ized Italian Prince, what Pope, what Jesuit-governed Emperor has ever heard the voice of English, much less of I? ish, Catholics re monstrating on the religious inequalities in their re spective domains ? Special occasions have not been wanting. We have lately seen Protestant mis sionaries to Jews ejected from Hungary, it being deemed better Jews should continue Jews than be come Protestant Christians; and just now a consider able number of Bibles are being sent back by the Austrian Government. Last year an Italian Noble, Count GUICCIARDINI, was banished for merely reed ing the Bible with some friends in his own house ; and two excellent persons, the MADIAIS, man and wife, have just begun a severe separate imprisonment of five years, simply rad merely for becoming con verts to the Protestant faith by reading the Bible ! a de xl which has justly called forth the indignant remonstrance of the representative of the Prussian Government ! What Catholic remonstrance has been heard from Britain ? Had the late Synods no interest in vindicating their common faith from such scandals as these ? Was it more important to attack the Queen's Colleges in Ireland, and to des cant on the dangerous allurements of Protestant education in England, than to rescue the Catholic name from the odium of revolting persecutions in its head-quarters ? Or do Catholics expect we should commiserate their pangs under the denial of English territorial titles, while they are insensible to Protestant sufferings under banishment, and the most harsh species of imprisonmeut ? They will allege, perhaps, that they have no power over foreign Governments. But have they no influence with them ? Lord PALMERSTON 41 no power over the Senate of Hamburgh, yet he remonstrated, and with complete success too, on the inconsistency of a Pro testant Government imprisoning their fellow-Pro testant, the Baptist ONEREN. Are we to believe that what he readily obtained on behalf of a member of a comparatively obscure sect could be in no de gree obtained by the Catholics of Great Britain on behalf of those who compose the vast majority of the population amid which they dwell ? Would a vigor ous representation to the POPE, that here Catholics can erect a cathedral if they please, in full view of any Protestant one, not obtain for Protestants in Rome something better than permission to worship over a pigstye, and outside the gates ? Or, if his HOLINESS were earnestly reminded that here Catho lics were at full liberty to seduce to their ranks any class of her MAJESTY'S subjects, young ladies, and Oxford doctors—curates, and archbishops too, if they liked, would it in no way movehim to tolerate seduction to Protestantism in his own dominions; and also to read a lesson of the same purport to his beloved cousins, who govern as Catholic Princes ? sauncahalhlaittesfusul bionrtdoilneraatencaegeanncd Seri ous l y, w hi le the head-quarters of Catholicism testants; while neither sh ames nor ssoftenstheiemscr y i u ni n e t a l o t i y n t t h a e t i o n s w l a i a g r s h d y t s s e t s e t P m r r e o i cia re city ; and while no open and earnest steps are of the sight of P ro t es t ant lib eral i ty taken by British Catholics to reverse this state of things abroad, th ey must n o t wonder if all men will : o m m il p e .a at Cgathooflicpaetraatkciuntgion, of religious equality, or because forbidd en t o Nor must they won d er be even more success fla p if la f f n ia t i Ls n e: jra n e y ecclesiastical st aigea i l ta t t i o titles, religio than at the last election. \Ve s h ould, indeed refuse to take our lessons of civil and 'utterly liberty from Ita ecclesiastics. l'an or Austri an ec 1' • US c cs.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The approach of the Presidential train to Lyons, on Monday last, was announced by a salute of 104 guns, fired at the same time from all the forts. This formidable detonation seemed to shake the whole city, and the colours on the various buildings were visibly agitated. An immense population was assembled the whole way from the vicinity of the railway station to the hotel of the Prefecture, where Louis NAPO LEON WeS to alight. As soon as the PRINCE left the railway carsisge, M. BEET, the Prefect cf the Rh one , came forward at the head of the mayors and muni cipal council, and presented to him the keys of the town on a golden salver, at the same time addressing him as follows Monseigneur, —I have the honour to present to your Imperial Highness the keys of this towa, the same 'hat were presented to the Emperor. The irhabitents will be most happy to pr3ve to you 'heir cordiel sentiments and devotedness to yore cause." The PRINC E replied that be was happy to again visit a city which had given so noble and so memo rable a reception to the EMPEROR, and that he wes much pleased with the favourable sentiments ex pressed towards him. Louis NAPOLEON then mounted on horseback, wearing the uniform of a general cf division ; General DE ST. ARNAUD end General DE CASTELLANE were at his sides, but a lithe behind. A detachment of mounted gendarmery and of the Ist dragoons opened the cortege, then came the PRINCE with his splendid staff, and then in carriages a num ber of foreign officers, amongst whom were Generrl DE LA A I ARMORA, the Sardinian Minister of Wrr, the Ministers, and o'her high functionaries. The crowd was something extraordinary, end the cries of "Vive Napoleon !" and "Vive l'Ewpereur !" incessant. The whole presage from the railway to the prefec ture Jested upwards of an hour, the weather being most favourable then and during the whole day. At half -past four the official receptions took place, and at five the PRINCE went to the archiepiscopal Plane, where he was received by the Archbishop, to witness the regatta on the Saone. At six o'clock the PRINCE rssembled at his table the Cardinal Count DE LA MARMORA, the Envoy of the Ring of SARDINIA, M. PALEOCAPA, the Mi n i s t er o f Public Works at Turin, end a great number of functionaries and r rzonages of note of Lyons. At eight o'clock a display of fireworks, representing a volcanic eruption, wee given et Fourrieres. At half past nine the PRINCE proceeded through an immense crowd crying " Vive l'Empereue!" to the bell at the theatre, where the princip-1 itthabitents were assem bled. His Highness wee greeted with the warmest acclamations. He dance(' a quadrille with Mdlle. Barr, the daughter of the Prefect, their being—the Prefect end Mme. Monis, the w, fe of the General of Division. His Highness afterwards went round the ball-room, the appearance o f which was really encha n ti ng . lls Highness withdrew at eleven oclock, f o ll owe d b y cr i es o f " Vi ve Napoleon ! Vive l 'Empereur r a thousand times repeateo. His car riage, followed by an immenee crowd, proceeded at a footpace to the Prefecture. The weather wre de lightful the whole day, and no incident occurred to ma r the proceedings. On the following day at eleven o'clock the PRINCE got on horseback, and, followed by his stuff, proceeded to the Place Bellecour to pass in review the ermy of L yons. This review took piece in the midst of an immense concourse of the population, end with re peated cries of " Vive Napole in !" An rstrede wee prepared for the authorities, end the filing-off wee effected with the most enthusiastic acclamations. The PRINCE then proceeded to the Place Napoleon along the Rue Bourbon, all the hou es of which were dressed out with garlands and flogs, the windows being occupied by ladies, who flung down flowers, and joined their voices to those of the crowd in the cry of "Vive l'Earpereur !" At the moment when the PRINCE arrived on the Place, the statue of the Emperor was uncovered to the noise of cannons, mili tary music, and the singing of 800 children belong ing to the public schools. Col. DUNAMEL pronounced a short address to Ye Highness, who replied in the following speech " Lyonese,—Your city was always asscciated by re markable incidents with the different phases in the life of the Emperor. You saluted him r s Consul when he went beyond the mountains to gather fresh laurels; you after wards saluted him as all powerful Emperor; and lastly, when Europe had banished him to an island, you were among the first its 1815 to age'n salute him as Em peror. " Now your city is the first to raise a statue to his memory. This fact is a significant one. Equestrian statues are only erected to sovereigns who have reigned; thus the Governments which have preceded me have al ways refused this homage to a power, the legitimacy of which they would not admit. " And yet who was more legitimate than the Emperor? elected three times by the people, crowned by the Head of the Church, recognised by all the continental powers of Europe, who allied themselves to him both by bonds of a political nature and by those of blood? " The Emperor was the mediator between two con flicting ages; he destroyed the old regime in re-estab lishing all that was good in it, and he destroyed the re volutionary spirit by everywhere causing the benefits or the revolution to triumph ; that is use reason why they who overthrew him soon had to deplore their triumph; as to those who defended him, it is unnecessary for me to remind you how much they have wept over his fall. " And so it was, that as soon as the people saw them selves of liberty to make their choice they cast their eyes on the heir of Napoleon, and for the same reason, from Paris to Lyons, on eveiy point of my passage, a unanimous cry of ' Vivo l'Empereue has been rais: - 3. But in my eyes this cry is much more a souvenir which touches my heart than a hope which flatters my pride. "Faithful servant of the nation, I never shall have but one object, and that is to reccastitute in this great counay, so convulsed by so many commotions and utopian schemes, a peree based on concilialon for men, inflexibility as to the principles of authority, love for the labouring claws, and national di gn ity. n We have but just extricated ourselves from those moments of crisis where, in consequence of no'ions of good and evil being confounded together, the best minds have been perverted. Prudence and patriotism demand that, at such tames, the nation should reflect before it decides on its destinies; and it is yet difficult for me to know under what name I can render the greatest sere vices, " If the modest title of President could facilitate the mission confided to me, and before which I have never held back, it is not I, who from personsl interest, would desire to change that name for the title of Emperor. " Let U 3 then lay on that stone our homage to a ereat man; and, in doing 80, we s h ell honour at the same time the glory of France and the generous gratitude of the people; that act will also testiay the fidelity of the peo ple of Lyons to immortal souvenirs." The speech was received with the most enthusiastic applause, and with cries a thousand times rcp - 2ated, of " Vivo l'Empereur." The following is the latest telegraphic dispatch re ceived by the Government : " Lyonr, sei,-4 20, Six in the Evening. " The Prince has just returned from the port of La Vitriolerio. In returning, es in going, the population thronged in his passage and cheered him loudly. After a conference with the engineers of the Rhone and of the Highness got i n t o hi s carr i age and pro railways, his ceeded to the Palace of the Arts, where an exhibition of the horticultural prcduce of Lyons was laid out. In going through the Rue Centrale, the Prance received from as immense p opulailon a reception of the most cordial description, the cry of Vive l'Empereur!' pre ceding and following him to the Palace of St. Pierre, and being redoubled on the Place des Terreaux. The women flung flowers from the windows, and the carriage of the Prince was literally covered with them. His Highness went through every part of the exhibition, and rfter wards addressed to the horticultur:sts his felicitations on what he beheld, They, in their turn, testified to him the liveliest expression of their gratitude. The Prince returned to the prefecture along the quays of th e S aone, where an immense crowd was collect-]. Here, also, 1 houses were dressed out, flowers were flung down from the windows, and the air resounded with the cry of Vivo l'Empereur 1' A decree in the ifoniteur of the date of the 14th puts a duty of 30 centimes the 100 kilogrammes on the Belgian coal itnnortFd in the zone cornprißsd be tween Haltein and Longvq, and five fra ncs the 100 kilogrammes on metals in the raw state imported from Blancmisseron to LongwY• A note in the Zoniteur explains the decree to be called for by the failure of the negotiations for the renewal of the commercial treaty of the 13th of December, 1845, for sake of re establishing equality in the common law, according to which the commercial relations of both countries are henceforward to be regulated.

Letters from Basle and Strasburg bring intelli gence of a sudden and destructive use of the Rhine end the affluents of the Leman, in consequence of the heavy reins which hive fallen in Switzerland and Alsace.
