I THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have rec'eired the niris journals of Yesterd:ty. The CoOtittitionnel has kept its preini4 to corn, meat upon the letters of Generals OniNG AMMER and DE LAMOKICIERE. In the number'of yesterday there is nearly a rive on .the subject from the pen cf GRANTEE DE CASEAG SAC. The greater 'part of the'article, ooneists of a ,review of the military career of General ,Cuikr;QA - autnt, which is made with a view .to show that he is not the able man -that-he - desires the world to imagine he - is.„lu_ the. concluding portion of the article tire some sharp observa;ions. Itl. GRA-' TITER DE CASSAGNAC. say s Uafortneately, there . IS7O in the politic:lJ career of the °mien:l three well-established facts, which it ap-. pears to us very difficult to rtcoicile with the terms of his protest.-. b'irst,in March. 1849,- General Changsr • nior applied to Prince Louis Napoleon fora Written au thorization to throw the Constituent - Assembly out of the window. Secondly, nt the pe - riod of creating tie great military commatds, - General Chan;zarnier 9 , ;4ain urged With • energy the neeessity of a - COUP de4ut; and, as Prince I, , ,uis Napoleon recaved thes e .overttrea with Brett cooltwi,a, the GcneraL:complainedialoud before the Ministers, d,claring that _there ,WEI6' nothink to he .done with that .ThiAnas:Diafoit us; . and thirdly, in No- , . . . ..., vt-.mbPr, 1850,. , when. the Alais'6 trit4l wail 'going oP, Generai Chatu3aruir aseembted at the T.Atieths, mono of the dratving-room3 giv,u .to him by the.Tresieent with thocommetd of the arMy Of PariE, .s number ef political pereonages, to' wbene he proposed to arrest Louis Napoleon and to send him to Vince: mica ; to shut tip the Legi-latire Palace, by proroguieg the Astemi:iy for six rnoLtili; cud to assume himialt the. dictatorship. AMonest, the persOns : thus convoked nen& present *4B Melia, W.° refused to take part in -Eueh treason, and who immediately informed the heed cf the State ( f what had taken place. These three fate, perfectly au thentic and absolutely incontereable, Chow what do- dance is to be given to General Cbatigarnier's drclera tons concernivg his mensuetuden his spirit of order, end his profund respect for the law. To have desired, to put an end by vie:entice to two Assrinbret or to prorogue , them ; t o h ave Wi shed to arrest the elect of ,sia millions of mun; to have to elhis position and corarnaed ; he it 'd • proposed to imprison him from whom and all that in order impose on Fratee himself as dictator—that ca.* sihatever may be said of in neither evinces great respect for legalnyn nor any great frankness of cherecter, and, in ucloitier, renders somewhat sus . picions, it will be admitted, the recital of 'the carious' attempts made on the virtue of title new Joieph." These charges are far more serious than military blunders imputed to CUANGARNIER. Neither, he, or Count MOLE can pats them sub silentio. M. DE CAs lAGNAC winds up with the following apostr9phe:tO the ectisant generals "Do -au then suppose that you have carried away with'you the good sense and the honour of your country, and that all honest folks disappeared from. France the day when you passed the frontier? Pale imitators of Pichegru and Moreau, you have their pretensions, bgt not their glory. May God he pleased to stop you in time, that you may not have their cleetiny."- '' The Pays has an article on the - letter of General DE LAMORIC/E2E. The style is very different from that of the Constilutionna. It says:— "No one, not oven himself; shall cause us to forget the onsiderable services which General de Lsneoritaa e has rendered to Fierce and to society. The army has .always reckoned him amongst its most valiant soldiers, and anarchy amongst its moat formidable adeereariee. Our heroic combats in Algeria remind us of him, end in the disastrous events of June he gloriously 'contributed with his person to the safety of the country. Those are merits which no one has a tight to deny or depsecian ; and, for our part, we recognise them the more willirgly that we have never seen in M. do Lemotie are one of - those ambitious men cf gigantic plans who dream of the poriious eunlimities of power. There is in M. de .T.,morie ace may one defect which paralyses those emineat qualitiee and that ia, an ardent imegit a , tion,ra precipitation, and a vivacity which sometimes climes his cooler reason to deviate:from his (Aka, end `fretinthat moderation which is so recenisite in a political Inert. We remember the phrtse by which the ilcustrious Alartlhal Bugeaud charactetised that impetuous organi zitiorn 'lt is,' said he, 'at 11(.8e1 vnaich goes rolling on and on, until it finds a h le to fall into.' The letter of . General de Lamoricle is, in our opinion, a fresh proof of his proneness to yield to sudden inspirit - tions. His bitterness of tone, his violence -even, Spring rather from the heed than from the heart, from the circle in which be lives rather than from what his conscience dictates. Is it seriously that M. de La , t1:10fIC:1 e can speak of the present Government as maintaini ng itself by force in pewer, when in reality it 1 2_ a s for its , base universal suffrage, and the strongest m aenT station of the national will. le it sincerely that ate reproeches the Government with not respecting either persona or property, w hen thaeGoverpment has coraolidated in eo efficient a manner, the great principles on which rest the eetety of society and the future pro grew; of civilization ? Let M. de Lainc;ric I e examine his conscience and say, if placed between the dangers in which France was being engulfed, and a patriotic ille. gOily, if,- haVing the power like Luaus Napoleon to crush 'anarchy to its very root at the price of some ca. orifices called for from liberty; he would have hesitated an instant. These attacks against the national sove reignty, this ingratitude for the benefits which society owe to the present Government, 'are not worthy - of General do Lamoric:e[T.. llis heart and his patriotism will one day regret the errors of his head." The lifouiteur coutaininennneatesatosetise effect that the only motive the Government hid in - view in not authorising- the publication of the letter of the Count DE CuatianonD was respect for the Constitution. The Government could net authorise the . publication'Of 'a letter Which counsels refusal to take the oath re quired by the Constitution grounded on a principle essentially contrary to that of the national sove reignty. Th..-3 • PRINCE PIMIDENT :has-.ordered that there shall be, from his privy purse, distributed to all the workmen who suffered by the late fire in the Fau bourg St. Antoine the full•amount of all their losses by that calamity. •: • It is said- that 3,000,000 f. are to be accorded for the execution of the Cherbourg, Railway, and , 3,000,000 f, for that of the line from Toulouse to Cette. • `The management of the Italian Theatre was con fided in 1849 to M. Roncoei for six years, bilt in September, 1850, it was taken from him by the Mi liister of the Interior on account of his embarrassed pecuniary situation. M. RONCORI appealed to the Council of State against the Ministerial decision, and in the event of its being confirmed demanded da- Thrgna. M. BEE, his partner, joined him in this _ proceeding. Mr. LUMLEY, his successor, on the 'contrary; presented a request that Itorscorn's demand should be rejectQd. , The matter was pleaded before and examined by the Council of State, and on Mon . Any judgment was given. • The Council decided ..that Mr. LUMLEY had no right to interfere, and his intervention was set aside. A similar decision was given with respect to M. BER. As to M. RONCONT, the Council allowed him, as, at a late stage of the proceedings, he hod ri quested, to withdraw his 43 7 peal agranst- his dismissal, and with leipect to his de mend for damages, it declered that he was not entitled to any. _ _ _ ,~+ A "i) ographical notice in the Pattie on Madame SAQUI, who, IA the age of 7.5 years, is now dancing on-the tight reps at the Hippodrome, states Borne curious facts to account for her' being complied at so advanced a I..erivd of life to continue a fatiguing and hf:z>.rdous performance. it appears that Madame SAQUI bad acquired a. lisndsorne fortune many years age, nod had isselVed to retire, when her hrotbei„, who was the manager of the Rouen Theatre, tvLs on the point of becoming bankrupt with debts amount ing to 600,000 f., and, to save his credit, Madame SAQUI paid the whole amount, and reduced herself to poverty.

The anticipatdd announcement of a reduction, in the rate of interest on the Exchequer-bills falling due in June appeared yesterday. The existing rate is lasd, per -day, or 2/. ss. V s ed. per annum, and henceforth it is to be -1 1 4 d. per day, or 1/. 18s. fri a id. -per annum. The me dium course- has, therefore, been taken between Sir Charles Wood's theory that no reduction of any kind should' be Made and the principle of adopting at all times the- fair market rate. In the latter case the descent would have been to id. per day, or 11. 10a. sd. per annum, at which the premium would still - have been such as to insure their, circu lation under any conceivable change in the money market; but, aitlfough 33,0001. of the public money has been sacrificed by not resorting to it, and the credit of the British Treasury is made to appear much less high than it actually is, there is a satisfaction in finding that the loss of double that amount, which was incurred in February, and which was threatened to be repeated on the present occasion, has been averted. _The lowest quotation of the June bills. yesterday was 645.,. being considerably above what has usually been considered the fair average premium that such securities should be made to anaintain. At this price the actual interest they will pay (excluding the contingency of a further reduction at any future period) wilt he 1/.l6es 10d per annum. . .

MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.—The Asia;' with - advicea to the sth Mat. &urn New York, arrived in the - Mersey at six o'clock on Saturday evenirg., The telegraphic entabuucetraent that she was off Holyhead. led to some "of the speculators, who were expecting =punts of a further rise in. America,,- to purchase freely in the latter part of the day, so as to swell the trans actions to 20,000 _hales. It turned out, however, that the ..tendency to speculation was somewhat abated; that ; the New Yprk ; ;and New Orleans Markets were less animated; and that the incline-. lion of prices was slightly in favour of buyers. The 'total receipts to May sth were 2 682,710. hales, against 2,060,931 last year; and in the week, 75 ; 140, against 38,326 in the corresponding week of 1851; and it was anticipated that on the 12th they wouldsbow a still in et', maul; excess. In short, the indic a ti o n s o f a crop of 3,000,000 belts were more decided than hetor e a These advices had the effet:,of checking the spirit of specula tion in the Liverpool cotton market-yesterday. Business was tamer; and, it the buyer could secure no corieessiou in price,. he had, at on rate, a larger choice, which comes to much the same thiag. Sa t in the sales arneented to 10,000 bales.

At noon, it was telegraphed • that_ the sales were 8,000 to 10,600 balesaaed the. market firm; but the a!terneon;'o an nouncement stated the sales as Only : . 6 000 to 8,000, with a flat market.

And'wo haie letters by the overlaad mail representing the market fur goods and yarns in general as exceedingly at Calcutta, with rather levver, prices in some descriptions.

We have, therefore, to report an intteiniate market in jarris and goods at large; a marked caution on the side of buyers; and an amount of business altogether inconsiderable. - In some few articles, sellers,: too, have IRen found slightly better to deal with, hut, as a whole the market remains quite steady.

The extreme dearness of Sea itland cotton has led to an advs./10J in the prices of fine -lame from 100's upwards. The— makers of domestics complain very much of their trade.

The following deScription of the Nepaulese may be found interesting: — "In pereon the Nepaulese are in general of middle site, all he .d, shoulders, and chest, with 'open and cheerful ceuntenanoes. The Nepaulese ot the pilling are p , at:cable, indgetrious, and ingenious, greatly attached :to the- superstitions ;they profess, and tolerably, reconciled to their lot. They are courageous, capable of very great labour; and be sides, heing,chitay agricniturists, they 'almost exclu sively cultivate all the arts and many of the manufac tures known 'to Indiae-their powers of imitation in manufactures, especially in that d arms, and all vessels and_ rnaments ot gold, silver, See., being very sUperior. " "It maynot be cut of place to say somethiugof the laws of Ncpaul and the way in which they are administered. The laws for political offences depend entirely upon the strength or weakness of the party they. are enforced against, and his guilt or innocence depends upon the faction in power. I was much amused one day by being: seriously informed by ono ofehe high priests of Nepaul and an o.l4inister that it was thus written . in a very old ilindoo work in his possession, and of the truth of which, be said, I was aware, That those seeking for learning should go to 4enares--theso seeking for justice should go to Ncpaul, or rattier Goorkha, which is fifty miles further north.'

THE " BURMESE EMPIRE AND - - --- • THE LAST WAR.

Ly hag betwetp the great peninsula of Hindostan in India, and the Chinese Empire, is another peninsula xi:alsly equal' in extent, running down from the Himalaya mountains draost to thesiquitor for a distance Of abi - ,ut, 2000 !tiles.

Their worship is that of the Pagan. There is no standing army,'but as the sovereign islord.of the lives and pro perties Of his subjects, every male adult is obliged to be come a soldier, and fight when called upon. The crush ing despotism of the Burmese princes bad taught the people to believe that their rulers were irresistible, and throughout the whole of our operations in that conet:y, no inducements (Meld win them from an alkgiaLce strengthetted,by the unchecked conquests on every aide of more than hilt a century. Th,, chief cities and towns of the kingdom are situate on either bank of the great river, the Irraavaddi. Among them is Raugoorn of which we. have already spoken. Amarapoora, the former capita!, i 3 placed about 500 miles up the stream of the Irrawaddi. In 1819, the chief sat of the Government was ramoved to Ava, a few miles lower down the stream on the opposite bank. The southern district of Bnrmuh is called .Pegu, and the -Capital is a large city of the same name. In the sixteenth century the .Peguans were the rulers of the HUTMOO empire, but were ultimately put down by the Barn:tans. In the middle of the eighteenth century the Peguans were again masters, but the Burmese rose and pnt theta down. The eauses'Which lironglit 'us into collision with the Burmese in the-years 1825 and 1826 originated to far book as the beginning of the present century. In 1793 or 1799 the :Minghs, an agricultural lace, settled iu Arracan, who had been for a long period subjected to the most cruel oppression and tyranny by their Burmese masters, emigrated, to the number of several thousand, into the neighbouring district of Chittagong, having learned to appreciate the superior mildness and equity of the British rule. Tens of thousands continued to pour over, declaring that they would die rather , than return to Arracan; end vast numbers actually perished of want, famine, and fatigue,. the road to the Nast river, which forms the boundary between the Burmese province of Arracan and the Bri tish district of Chittagong being strewed for miles the :bodies of the aged and decrepid, and:of mothers witliinfants at their breasts. Four thousand Burmese troops were sent after the :frlinghp;and they entrenched themselves so firmly with stockades in the , dense woods of Chittegong,, that they repulsed a hotly of Sepoas sent to . nrive them away. 'At this time there eere about 40 000 or 50;000 refugees in the province of Chittagong, and the Burineee - roontireh sent an emboesach , r to Cal cutta to the Marquis, of Wellesley, the then Governor-General, .. to , remonstrate - against the encouragement givers to them. The only result of this mission vvai the issuirg of a proclarnatiOn by the . Governor. General declaring that any subjects of the Burmeto King who,shauld thereafter emigrate would not be received Within the British .territories. Towards the close of 1800 on uneoeditional surrender of all.the Miugiis was again demanded, and ,Lieutenant-Colonel Symes was sent in 1802 as ambassador on a friendly mission to the Court of Ava, while a contide raja detaehnient, under Lieutenant-Colonel Burnett was Marched to the frontier of , Chittagong. Mat. tars remained in: abeyance for-some' years, but iu 1811 some of the Minim began. to make predatory incursions into the province of Afro - can, and tbe Bari:nese troops retaliated by incursions inteiebe company's ter- . ritories. Petty complaints,. recriminations, and hostili ties continued up to 1815, when the Rajah of Ramere, governor of the Burmese frontier province, wrote in a style of more than ordinary bombast, demanding a surrender of all the Mingh emigrants, with a _plain menace that a refusal to comply with this demand must produce immediate hostilities. Explanations •were sent in answer. In 1818 soothz.r more imperative demand was made, and a conciliatory answer sent back, and thus matters went on for some years further, the tone of the communications, and the letters of the high. officers of the Burmese provinces bceothing every day more arrogant end insolent, while the desire of the British aathorities to avoid a rupture seemed only to inflame their proneness to hostilities—they had evidently formed plans of ctin quest, which rendered war at length inevitable. • It will be seen - from the foregoing sketch that the history of the Mingh emigration and its consequences forms not only in itcelt an interesting episode in the annals of British India, but is also a necessary prelimi nary to an account of the Burthese war, the first waged by the Company beyond the proper limits of ledie. In 1823. the Earl of Amherst: tecame Governor-de enrol of India, and in the fallowing year the long threatening storm burst without any attempt at explana tion or negotiation. A night attack was made upon a small island situate in an arm of the sea, which divides the province of Chittagong from Arracan, and the small body of sepoys by whom it was defended were either killed or compelled to retreat. Hostilities were also com menced further to the north on the frontiers of Assana and Minipore, and the few Sepoys brought against the in vaders defeated, and at length increasing in confi dence, the Burmese advanced into the province of Sylhet, nearly 100 miles from their own fron tier, and only 226 from - Calcutta. Hero they attacked by Colonel Brown with a very inadequate force, when the British were repulsed with the loss of four officers and upwards of 100 men. Great alarm was excited at this intelligence, and a proclamation an maneing war against the Burmese was "issued by, the Governoveeneral. Up to this time the most -extraordinary want of information prevailed among the authorities of Calcutta 'tegarding the Burmese nation and people. The Government wavered as to whether the war should he commenced by sea or by land. At one time it was intended to have marched upon Ave, the capital, through Arracan, while a cub sidiary force, acting simultaneotisly, was to cress the frontier more to the north at Cachet., but further in quiries. showed that Arracan would be too unheahhy, anal the expedition was ahandofied. The plan of campaign finally arranged, and somewhat hastily Adoptwi, was to send an army, under the eoevey of a considerable squadron, to take pos.session of Rargson, the ceief sea port of the Burmese enrpire, under the impression that tae stizatte Of this great emporium would terrify the' King of Ave, and induce him to sue for peace. In case of refusal, it was resolved to make .Rangoon a depot for ammunition and military stores,seiz4 the boats by which the nacigat.ion was carried on, mid eseend 'et) the capital of the empire. six hundred miles up the ricer. A second army was to _co-operate by an overland 'march in •the same direction. The sea and' land forces destined for Rangoon were placed under the commend "of Sir Archibald Campbell. Oa the 10th of May the squadrons end transports arrived at the mouth of the Irrawadili, and its arrival. being wholly unexpected,, the Burmese au thorities were thrown:into t he greatist sterna and con sternation.h It was hoped that by pushingon at once,t, -that town would surrender in terms of protection, h and h 11 of cattle, boats, boatmen, and drivers, which • .the • expedition was totally w n it npno a :i o d:d.: would have been timed at their adopted The Burmese authorities. however, d much more tyrannical and relentless policy as a . r P e u g h a d rded their own subjects, and a much more harassing invaders. se riously embarrassing policy as regard d d, •Knosvieg the town:could not be defen . e and ties assembled the whole of the bahtihteal:lttsi,thori compelled them to. proceed in a mars into t ‘% ll ,h e e i n nm t o h es e t recesses of the jangle, so that squadron arrived Opposite the town, were four , the town de slettee: a few shots were exchanged, they landed an serted.

This pagoda, which was cepablo of being strongly fortified and defended, was dar i n g t he whole :of the time the British remainedan the neighbourhood of Rangoon , the key of their position, and was the object of frequent and furious assaults from the Burmese. But the hope of finding native boats to USA 4 I. carry them six hundred miles up the river was vaih—the boatmen proved their devotion to the King by, removing every boat likely to be useful to the invaders, and such was the unpleasant and herirdous pesi ion of the British at the commenmaicut of the rainy tearon, the longeEt, petbaps, in any part of India, And during which no troops could heep the field. About the end of May, RS the Burmete troops swarmed in, they gradually .hecame more daring, approached the position, and cc)aintenced stoekading thi in the jangle, within heating of the advannd pasts._ At length •Sir A.

Two 18-pounclore were brought up to breach the work—a large gap Was soon made, and the troops rushed forward. The usual work of tlaughtcr commenced in the intericir, and upwards of 200 Burmese were left dead in it: - The Burmese commander was killed by a shower of grape, and the erublema of his authority, the state umbrella, sword. and spear, found near the body. Next morning the great Kemmendine stockades were bombarded, the effect of the shells in the crowded stockade being so terrific, that when the columns of ettaels moved forwaid the Burmese -evacueted the works. Towsrls the end ofJruitcr, inf,.rce mente having arrived. to the= Burmese, a formidable es sardt was made on the British lines, bat the fire of some field pieces loaded with grape and shrapnel turned the fate of the day in favour of the Britith. Meantime the troops suffered severely from the want of fresh •piovision and vegetables; .multiiudes sickened every day, the mor tality became alarming, and out of -nearly 40,0'00 men not one-fourth were fit for field duty. The next . peat action was fought at Kemmeroot, about ten miles from Rangoon, - and ended in the capture of ten formidable stockades, thirty pieces of artillery, and a serious loss in men to the Burmese ; but the British general was unable to take'advantsge of the panic be had created, and could not advance a days' march into the country. A mari time expedition two or three hundred miles down the coast to the province of Teriasteriin was, however, com pletely successful. The principal cities .were: reduced without difficulty, several excellent harbours were ob tained, and the climate hell g salubrious, therm who had been prostrated by the pestilential climate of Rangoon, soon recovered their health and efficiency. - Towards, the end of July . the King of Ayes not being able to account for the continued successes of a mete handful of British troops, sent two of his brothers •to superintend the operations of the war, accompanied by numerous astrologers, to point out the most favourable moment of attack. The British commander resolved to antictpate them, and made a most successful attack upon some stockade positions in the river, capturing eight pieces of cannon and a considerable quantity of ammu nition. At midnight, on the 30. h of August, the, Bri tish position was attacked in turn by a considerable force, but the Burmese were repulsed with great slaughter. Au attempt was made to f.dlow up this success, bat owing to want of good feeling bete n Col.- Smyth and Genets!

'ln the cotme of the day several dense columns of the Burmese el, filed in fri..nt of the Great Pagoda, and in a few house the British were completely surrounded by the s werreieg reussea, nothing hut the narrow channel of the river being unoccupied in their rear. As' soon as this extraordinery aLd presumptuous forma tion was c unpleted the Burmese threw aside their spears and eamkets, and commenced operatiens with their en trenching tools with such activity that in the course of a couple Of hours the whole line had disaPpearee, and could only , be traced by a parapet of new earth gradually iecreas!ng in height, and assuming such forms as the skill are] science of the engineers suggested.- The move ing masses *Lich had so lately attracted the anxious at .tention of the British had sunk into the ground, and to any one who had , not witneessd the whole scene the ex istence of these subterranean columns could not be cre dited, and to the invaders, who had watched the whole . of the strange proceeding, it seemed like the work of magic or enchantment. In the afternoon a strong`Eng lish detachment made a sortie to discover .how the hostile force was arranged. The movement was Nt holly unexpected by the Burmese, and being unprepared for resistance they were taken in flank and driven from their cover with considerable loss, leaving large quanti ties of arms and tools behind them. Information. Was. thus obtained by the British of the Burmese mode of warfare, and the manner in which they push forward their approaches. The trenches were found to be a succession of holes, capable of containing two seen each, and excavated so ES to obtain shelter both from the weather and the fire of the enemy—even a shell exploding-in the trenches could only kill two men. As the troops are not relieved, esch hole contained a supply, of rice, water, and even fuel, and a bed of straw under' the bank, in which one man slept while his ocrarg" Watched. When o no li ne o f t hi s trenc h i s c omph tcd, its occupiers,. taking ad van t ag© of the night, push 'f orward to where the se con d li ne o f trenc h e s is w to be opened, their place being immediately taken up by fresh t roo p s from the rear, and so on progressively, the numle:r trenches occupied varying accor ding to the nutlike t! the ground, the Ibrce ot t h e besiegers, or the pans e the . general., At the same t:1330 a number of large ter. formiddllere rafts were sent dow n the river to Let fire fi to thwthipping at Rangoon; but the skill a nd intre p idit y a verted the danger. For three or e fo f u t r he de ß y ' S h r i h s e h enemy ywere snowed to push forward their undergrued epprosches till they had s . irrivi:d within b a ll m usket-shot of the Brithh liner. A !evens onslaught was :- , then made upon "them, and. atier an uhstinate enefLet, tsee. y fled into the jungle, leaving behind them their &R ill ry t)ols, and avast quantity of small arms. The followin g d ay the troops titirtmad at the Great Pagoda followed up 'this success, while another division attacked the enemy's camp at Della. In both cases the Briti s h were triune_- pliant—the Burmese were driven from their ' entire posi tion, with the loss of all their artillery and the material of the arraz.
