Prior to the very satisfactory announcement made by Lord PALMERSTON last evening in the House of Commons, that the proffered mediation of Great Bri tain had been mutually accepted by the Germanic Confederation and the Government of Denmark, explanations in reference to the recent misunder standings at Madrid were successively wrested from the First Lord of the Treasury and the Principal Secretary for Foreign Affairs by the useful pertina city of Mr. URQUHART. Of the circumstances of the correspondence which those misunderstand ings had elicited we have already spoken ; and, in recounting the origin and result:; of that correspondence, we endeavoured, i n language as forcible as we could command, to pronounce not only our acquittal of the Right Hon. Gentleman, the British Ambassador at the Court Of Madrid, from the insolent aspersions showered upon him by the Duc DE SOTOMATOR, but to eulogise the indeaendence and propriety with which he had con ducted himself in his official capacity tYroughout the whole of this remarkable transaction. As we had Jr(Ew s conjectured from the tir.t appearance of the letter s t trinsinitted from the British e mbass y at Madrid to :an. _ the foreign office in the same capital, and back again from the Foreign-office to the British embassy the Government of England cannot find it in lt3 heart to mention the name of Sir H. LYTTON 13,u.,t.wsit otherwise than in terms of unqualifi e d alitrobation ; and we doubt not that were Lord PALMERSTON Summoned by sums derlorabls catas- THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 5, 1848. profound and versatile patriot, that an universal war can be viewed as nothing less than " the final European cataclysm." This occurs in the political essay addressed by him to the directors of the Revue E In the een lle an d entitled " The Polity of Reason:' ninth ' chapter of this remarkable production,* the illustrious author, speaking of war, says—" He who shall throw open the folds of its cloak will assume the responsibility of an age of chaos, of murder, of blood, and servitude ; he will do what Belgium and Holland would do were they to overthrow their dykes, and to open a way to the ocean ; nationalities and individuals, liberties and principles, friends and enemies—everything would be engulphed." Correct in 1831, this warning passage is more especially applicable to the position of continental Europe in 184$. The warn ing came in 1831 from the pen of LAMARTINE, it comes now visibly upon the world from the acts, as well as from the language of that poet-statesman. It i s not only the oracle of thought that utters this warning now to Christendom, it is the oracle also of experience—of thought matured, of experience ac quired. It was at daybreak that the marble head o f Memnon breathed forth music—it is at the dawn of French Republicanism that the mouth of LAMARTINE becomes the instrument of prediction. Let not there tones be despised, or those Sibylline leaves be scat tered unthinkingly to the winds of heaven. M. Recurt, twice: for Paris and Perpignan. Pagnerre, twice: for Paris and Versailles. M.

The Ledru Rollin party still continue their machi nations against the Republic. No. 23 of the Bulletin de la Republique of the Ministry of the Interior, dated the 2d, was published on Wednesday. It is as peace and concord, which have been momentarily dii- 1 !tubed by men who were misled by insensate excitations. Citizens ! I appeal to your tried patriotism, and rely upon your unanimous concurrence. From those who have triumphed over these disturbances and are strong in the success of the rightful cause, I claim that calm ness and moderation which is consistent with strength. To those who are weak and suffering. I come to promise assistance and unwearied solicitude, in ex change for that patience and resignation which the Re public still requires from them. From all of ) ou, citizens, I demand, in the name of the Republic, obedience to the laws, oblivion for the past, union for the future, confidence in the respresentatives of the Government. The task which has devolved upon me is glorious ; I trust I shall not fail in the performance of it ; and in the accomplishment of it I will not shrink from any ob stacle, and will not fail to exact respect for the authority with which I am invested. Let us remain united. France has her eyes upon us. Let her not be forced to moan over our impious discords. Every attack against the holy principle of Fraternity is a crime les notion. The repressntatives of the people are about to enter upon their duties. Let us rely upGn them for founding the future welw are of our fine country." 011ows: -- " Disturbances ever to be regretted have broken out at Rouen, and at a few other towns, arising from the elections. These slight shocks, although deeply to be lamented, ought not to surprise us after the powerful commotion into which France and Europe have been thrown. Nothing more need be seen in those momentary troubles than the results of the errors of a few indi v id ua l s , or of certain sudden difficulties cuulrtigees n tapplication of instit u ti ons , th e sue almost inevitably attendant upon the chanism of which has never before been brought into action amongst us. Every vess e l, however well trimmed she may be, leaves the waters in her wake in a state of agitation. Let us not exaggerate the imp o rt ance o f act., deplorable as they are, which are easily explained by the complication inseparable from a state of things en tirely without precedent. .Let us n o t fi n d i n t h ese inci dents the indication of schisms which will never again arise amongst us. Never forget, citizens, that great, that evangelical mott o of fraterni ty inscribed on our banners and on the fronts of our public monuments. Ever remember that fraternity means union, charity, tolerance, conciliation, confidnece,esteem, and reciprocal indulgence. Let us. then, have faith in the strength of the institutions which the people have gained at the price of their blood, and that the trials which we may yet have to undergo will only render them more firm by the sanction o f time and exper i ence . B e li eve that our revolution will never recoil, will never even make a pause, before it has fulfilled all its promises, before it bas ameliorated the lot of . the masses for whose benefit Society which, being it has been made. God, in his wisdom and extreme nc a i n p d le e s v w e h r th France has so often pro. bounty, has not willed that there shall be here below any en dowedelected withor rejected ; the p ri claimed and sealed with her blood, should again attempt privileged circle the well beingould become impossible. All to concentrate the have succeeded each and Governments enjoyments of f n a life eoi e w v other in France since 1789 have promised to en sure the future good of the workmen, and to increase the general welfare, by reducing the charges upon the people. No one has been willing or able to keep this promise. Let us hope that for this Republic, ovrnm7nt of all, by all s uffrage, that i s to say, the g founded upon the broad and e q uitable basis of universal and for all, is reserved the imperishahie glory of raising the means for creating a state of universal prosperity. Let there be n o disquietude, no mistrust; let us enter tain no doubts of ourselves or of cur cause. All the democratic consequences of the revolution of February are from this time forth assured to us. Insanity al o n e can ever conceive the vain notion of wresting them from us. Let us rely u pon the Nat ional Assembly for investigating in suitable terms the wishes of the people, and that, penetrated with the source from which it emanates, it will not misunderstand when it erects the new representative constitution destined to serve as the basis for the future grandeur and prosperity of France !" The Atelier, the special organ . of the working classes, contains the following article addressed to the revolutionists : " If you are dissatisfied because the popular element is not sufficiently represented . in the Constituent Assembly, we are of your opinion. If you are diss,a tisfied because tried Republicans, because able So cialists, have not seen their names issue froth the urn, we are of your opinion. If you are dissatisfied at be holding the narrow and inipuissant Liberalism of the old dynastic Left re-appearing on the political scene with u numerous cortege, we are again of your opinion. And not only we are of your opinion, but we belong to yourselves if you wish to act on the majority, and oblige it, by all the means of the press--the spoken word, and association—to realise all the insti:u lions which the time demands. We belong to you to prevent the light from being hid under a bushel, to cause every idea to be brought forward, and to show what it is worth, by being subjected to the test of public discussion. We belong to you to give an additional impulse to tt.e wheel of progress—to cause the revo lution of Fr bruary to keep its promises, the sovereignty of the people to remain a verity, the working classes to at last possess the instruments of labour. But, if there are any amongst you who are unwilling, or who do not know how to make use of the powerful means given to every one by the liberty to speak, to write, and to meet —if there are any who are inclined to proceed under the Republic as they were forced to proceed under the Monarchy, by an appeal to arms—if there are any who think of such means, we are not with them—we are against them ; we shall consider them as enemies of the Republic, and we shall treat them as usurpers of the sovereignty of the people. We should have so much the less hesitation in declaring against those of whom we speak, that we should believe them moved by a purely personal ambition, and altogether deprived of the legitimate ambition of bringing about the triumph ot ide as. Men with ideas, men of conviction, have at present so wide a career open before them, that they cannot in any manner justify having recourse to violence—besides they do not think of it. As to the Constituent Assembly, it is evident, to behold the names composing it, that a very ardent desire to realise all that Socialism can offer as reasonably realisable at present is not to be expected; but it is your duty, the duty of us ull who wish to see bond fide social reforms carried out, and wish it energetically, to state what they are, and to . show the means of application — it is the duty of us all sincere democrats to prepare the work, elaborate the ideas, and weigh in the Constituent . Assembly with all moral weight of necessity and justice." The attitude assumed by the moderate Republicans has, however, somewhat cooled the enthusiasm of the ultras. M. BARBP has repudiated the proclamation of the Societe des Droits de l'Homme, and declares that his name was appended to it without his autho- The Central Democratic Club of the National Guard has sent an address of congratulation to the National Guard at Rouen, fur their patient, humane, and energetic conduct in the recent events in that city. Since the above was in type we have received the Paris papers of yesterday evening. The National Assembly was opened yesterday, and the programme published in the Moniteur was strictly followed. The preparations to do honour to the solemnity commenced at an early hour in the morning, and the first sounds of the rappel were at once responded to by the National Guards, who immediately proceeded to their allotted posts in the line of procession from the Hotel of the Minister of Justice to the Chamber of the Representatives. Great crowds congregated at every point that promised to command a view, but notwithstanding their numbers, not the least con- fusion or disposition to disturb public order was evinced in any quarter. The line of procession from the Place Vendome to the Chamber of Representatives was marked out by a triple hedge on either side of National Guards, troops of the line, and the Garde Mobile. At half-past 12 the cortege began to move from the Place Vendome. It was headed by a strong body of the mounted National Guard, immediately after which walked the members of the Provisonal Go- vernment in ranks of three or four, flanked on either side by the superior officers of the National Guard, and followed by some general officers and staff. As this part of the pro cession moved on, the air resounded with cries of "Vive la Republique," " Vive le Gouvernement Pro visoire." The only Members particularised were MM. Lamartine and Marrast, for whom many cries were raised. The cortege was followed by the pri vate carriages of some of the Members, and the whole brought up by several battalions of the Na tional Guards and the troops which had lined the streets, and who fell in turn into the line of march. The interior of the Hall of the Assembly presents a simple aspect. A frise beneath the canvas roof contains " Liberti Egalite, Fraternite," often re- peated. There are two galleries or tribunes, one a each side ; that on the left of the President is reserved for the press, the right for ladies. On the external entablature of the tribune for the orators are inscribed 22, 23, 24 Fevrier. The members began to assemble early. Among the first, were Messrs. Odillon Barrot, Jambert Larabit,and Sunt Albia, with General Subervie, Provisional War Minister, Berryer, Faucher, Tas cheran, Etienne, Arago, Favre, Boulay, and Luneau. With regard to costume it was curious that not one infrnber obeyed Ledru Rollin's sumptuary decree. On the other hand, the condemned cross of the Legion of Honour was freely exhibited. There were about forty ladies in the gallery des tined to the fair. The galleries assigned to the public were crowded, especially the upper, which was filled with blouses. Beranger arrived early, and as he was seeking for his place with his weak old eyes through green spec tacles, Dupin came to his aid, and both shook hands as heartily as if there was the most perfect sympathy of politics and nature between the sarcastic lawyer and the poet, who is as remarkable for his bon hommie as his Republicanism. At ten minutes to one o'clock the Members of the Provisional Bureau ranged themselves at each side of the Presidential chair, immediately after the firing of cannon, heard inside, announced that the Prov i sional Government had set out from the Hotel of the Ministry of Justice. The names of the Secretaries forming the reovisional Bureau, are Fresnau, Astoine, Lagreneuil, Ferroueltal, Gambon, and Auguste Avon. In the diplomatic tribune among the earliest ar rivals were Lord and Lady Normanby, M. Peruzzi, Minister for Tuscany, M. de Thorne, Austrian Charge d'Affairs, and the Ministers for some of the South American Republics, as well as the Minister for the United States. At a quarter-past one o'clock the Doyen d' age, Audry de Puyraveau, took the chair. At this moment the drums could be heard beating aux champs, and - the Huissiers called out en place, when the Members took their seats, and a protound silence ensued. Immediately a noise was heard at the door, owing to some officers of National Guards entering the Chamber with their arms, which was prohibited. The Chamber supported the Governor of the Chateau, who opposed the National Guards, crying, " No arms in the Chamber," and the door was s' ut against them. After this incident there was pro found silence broken by the firing of cannon, which was heard without intermission. The door again opened, and the officers of National Guards and of the troops were seen, forming a striking group ; they wore their arms, but did not venture beyond the door. General Courtais was amongst them, and probably settled the matter in dispute. The Prefect of Police entered as the salute of drums was heard outside, and at half-past one o'clock, pre cisely the Provisional Government entered amidst cries of " Vive la Republique !" followed by a brilliant cortege of officers of National Guards. As the neglect of the prescribed costume had excited so much notice, all looked to see how the members of the Government were attired; but as they wore their coats buttoned, the republican waistcoat, if there at all, could not be discovered. They wore the ceinture adopted by all officials, with a ribbon in the button-hole. They had hardly taken their seats when M. de Puyraveau, the Chairman, invited attention to the President of the Conseil, who read a very short address, which could not be distinctly heard. When, however, he arrived at the words declaratory of the proclama tion of the Republic, which he gave with emphasis, the whole assembly, numbering 700 Members, rose to a man, and raising their right hands, shouted " Vive la Republique." The appearance of the assembly was at this moment extremely imposing. The cheering was renewed as he spoke the devise of the Republic. When he descended from the tribune, M. CREMIEUX, the Minister of Justice, rose, and invited the members to enter their bureaux, for the purpose of verifying their returns, and forthwith the Chamber was cleared —this first act of the ceremony not occupying more than six minutes. THE SPEECH OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT. " Citizen representatives of the people,— "The Provisional Government comes to bow before the nation, and render a signal homage to the supreme power with which you are invested. " Elect of the people, we welcome you to this great capital, where your presence excites a sentiment of happiness and hope that will not be deceived. " Depositaries of the National Sovereignty, you are about to found new institutions upon the broad basis of democracy, and to give to France the only constitution :hat can suit her—a republican constitution (here the whole assembly rose, and with right hands raised, cried " Vive la Republique"). But after having proclaimed the great political law which is about to organize definitely the country, you, like us, citizen representatives, will proceed to regu late the possible and efficacious action of the Govern ment in the relations which the necessities of labour establish among all the citizens, and which ought tia have for bases the sacred laws of justice and fraternity. —(Reaewed cheering, and cries of " Vive la Re publique.") " In fine, the moment has arrived for the Provi sional Government to resign into your hands the unlimited power with which the Revolution had in vested it. You know that with regard to ourselves rity. MAN(tut, however, pursues his career of vio• lence, and has, by the publication of a ferocious at tack on the army and National Guard, drawn upon himself a well-merited castigation from an officer in the army. These publications have elicited from the Prefect of Police the follewing proclamation : cir ‘ c . —Citizens,—Dark rumours u l la ß t E e F f E e c r T s u o lt ul O .d F ay l s °l ;n ic a E ll ranks of society. Written or verbal provocations are addressed by one part of the population to the other. The duty of the Prefect of Police is to watch at all times over the security 01 citizens and the tranquillity of Paris. The agitation excited by these appeals to disorder has called forth my solicitude. I hope that real Republicans Kill understand that to-day more than ever the Go vernment should reckon on their energetic support. At the moment when the representatives of the people are about to unite , wh en the gravest questions are about about to to bom b e e c disc e eurssaedlil when R e p u bli can i nst i tut i o ns are realities, to receive with the acelaina lions of popular sentiment the cons ecra ti o n of the pure and deliberate judgment of the representatives of the people, and assure its welf are , w h en i n s h o rt all the powers which constitute humanity are about to sanctify the Republic, our idol, shall we, citizens, form two hostile camps, and show the world, which has its eyes on France, that at the foot of our monuments, where we have inscribed " Libert 6, Egalite, Fraternit 6," children of the same common mother are in arms against each other ? Your magistrates, citizens, he, above all, ti at you have called to the post which he could only oc• cupy to conduce to the utmo s t o f hi s means t o the com mon s ecurity, will not believe such an error. The struggle of arms, when the arena of free discussion is opened, can only be the work of tr a itors to the Republio, or mailmen wishing to bring the disorders of their own im ag inations into th e so cial system. But the Republic renounces them for her children— s he has only given birth to men of patriotic and generous minds, and it is to real Republicans she will confide her destinies." La Liberte announces as official that Count D'Ap rosy, the Austrian Ambassador, is about to quit Paris for Vienna. He is to be followed by all the other members of the embassy. The Austrian Go vernment has not yet acknowledged the French Re public. The affairs of the Austrian embassy are to be conducted by Baron DR Timm, a diplomatist well known and universally respected. It was confidently rut noured in Paris on Wednes day afternoon, that Franc e had declared war against Austria. The Constitutionnel of yesterday, however, gives a positive contradiction to this rumour. By a decree which appears in the Moniteur cotton and wool are allowed to be imported by land as well as by sea, on payment of 30 frtrics per 100 killo grammes. The Provisional Government has communicated the following to the journals on the subject of the recent emeute at Rouen rofoundly affected at the events of Rouen. In accord ance w i th his colleagues,the Minister of the Interior immediat e ly sent aspecial " The Government has be en p Commissary, char ged ed to collect e very information, and to convince himself by a serious i n vestigation of the real causes of the disturbances which h ave caused blood to flow in the town. Th e Republic ha s its agitations, but the Republic has its strength, which should especially display itself in moderation. The Provisional Govern ment, therefore, has learned the news of these disasters with the greatest grief. .As soon as it shall fully know all the fa c t s , as soon as the documen ts which it has re ceived, and w hi c h it w ill receive from the judicial, civil, and military aut h or i t i es , s hall have enabled it definitively . to judge, it will, without delay, a ct with the =par. tislity and firmness which it derives from its origin. The whole country will be made acquainted with the details which th e G overnmen t ma y obtain ; they interest all the citizens." M. DUSSART, the Commissary-General for the department of the Seine Inferieure, has addressed the following proclamation to the citizens of Rouen and of the department in general, dated the 2d : " Citizens !—The insensate conflicts which have stained your two great manufacturing towns with blood will have a most painful effect on e ver y p art of France, they have imprinted upon the flag of our y oun g and glorious Republic a most afflicting spot. Called to exercise the functions of Commisary- General of the de partment, my fi rst care s h a ll be to aid you in effacing this blot, and to endeavour to establish among you solid this dictatorship was a moral power exercised in the midst of the difficult circumstances we have passed through. " Faithful to our origin and to our personal convie tions, we have not hesitated to proclaim the infant Republic of February. " To-day we shall inaugurate the labours of the National Assembly to the cry which ought always to salute it, Vive hi Republique.' " In the bureau, on the occasion of the President rising to state the objections which had been made to certain returns, M. Cremieux ascended the tribune, and with great energy declared that the Provisional Government had adopted for a rule, to make an ex ample of any public functionary who would use his functions in his personal interest. This declaration was received with great cheering and " Vive la 1.',6 publique," when the Member pointed at, whose name was ascertained to he 011ivier, spoke some words in a great passion, and a violent altercation took lace between him and some other Members, and a great scene of excitement ensued which lasted for seine minutes ; afterwards the President of the Bureau resumed the reading of the returns up to post hour. PARIS BOURSE, Tunas])AY, MAY 4.

AUSTRIA. The Cologne Gazette of the 3d of 'May publishes a letter from Vienna of the 27th ult., which states that the presumptive heir to the throne, Archduke FRANCIS JOSEPH, who is appointed Viceroy of Prague, has gone to Verona to the head-quarters of Field- Marshal Count RADETZKY. The late intelligence from Italy respecting the submission of Frioul has greatly encouraged the party who desired the recon ques t of Lombardy. The province of Gallicia labours under a new diffi culty. An immense number of persons who were ba nished are now returning from Belgium, France, and England. They completely inundate Cracow and the neighbouring territory, and their cry is for weapons. A deputation has arrived from Cracow, for the purpose of proposing the formation of a special legion. On the other hand, considerable apprehensions are entertained of the rising of the peasants. The Bourse appears to be again visited by depress , ing reports, and the funds are going down eonsid r ably. _ MORIG HARTMANN D. GRosz, and a landed pro prietor from Bohemia, have arrived as deputies from the German party of Prague, for the purpose of sub•- mitting the actual state of things to the Minister of the Interior, and, above all, to urge the adoption of powerful measures to oppose a strong barrier to the increasing horrors of the separation of the PolU party. trophe to attend at the tomb of the diplomatist he • would pronounce a funeral panegyric as earnest as the declamation of BOSSUET, and as deliberate as the climaxes of VENTURA. To speak, however, as seriously of the matter as the occurrence merits, we are more than gratified at the expressions of approval which were yesterday uttered by Lord Joule RUSSELL, and subsequently by Lord PALMERSTON, when alluding to the course pursued by the British Ambassa dor at the Court of Queen ISABELLA. That course was dictated to him, indeed, by the instructions received from the residence of the Foreign Minister in Downing-street. The communication which excited so much indignation in the mind of the Duc DE SOTOMAYOR was merely expressive of the policy of the existing Administra tion—a policy, too, which was rendered absolutely essential to the honour of the country, to the interest of so many who are living, and to the reputation of so many who are unhappily deceased. While com menting on a former occasion upon this extraor dinary correspondence between Sir HENRY BULWER and the Duc DE SOTOMAYOR, we maintained that England not only possessed the right to offer the recommendations which were offered by her Govern ment through the medium of her representative at Madrid, but we insisted that that interference had long since become an historical necessity, and that any abstinence from such interference on the part of the British Government, out of feelings of delicacy 0r from motives of punctilio, would, in point of fact, be nothing less than a flagrant and i nexcusable derelic tion of duty. The cogency of this argument is very singularly verified by the observations yesterday made before Parliament by the Prime Minister him self. Lord June Russew. reminded the House that, according to a treaty not yet ruptured, England was bound by obligations to furnish military and ma ritime assistance, in case of emergency, for the maintenance of her Most Catholic MAJESTY upon the throne she now occupies. " Considering, then," continued the Noble Lord, " the obligations of this treaty, and c onsidering the sums of money due by the Spanish Government to England for arms and for the munitions of war —remembering the treaty which obliges this country to make naval efforts for the maintenance of the QUEEN'S Government in Spain—bearing in mind that, if called upon, we have engaged to make those efforts; it is, I conceive, our right thus to tender advice, and it is natural that we should desire that any danger of disturb ing the Government of Spain should not be recklessly incurred." Fully, boldly, manfully. honestly has the Noble Lord, in those few and simple words exonerated her MAJESTY'S Government from any culpability in forwarding the recommendations it has forwarded to the Ministerial advisers of Queen ISABELLA. That single sentence, articulated in the British House of Commons by the Prime Minister of England, is at once a perfect and honourable vindi cation of Sir HENRY BULWER and a resolute enco mium upon the foreign policy of his illustrious col league Viscount PALMERSTON. Opponents of that policy, such for example as the Hon. Gentleman the representative of Stafford, may quibble as to the ex pediency of affording grounds for the ill-temper of a petulant diplomatist like the Duke DE SOTOMAYOR, but it will require more than the logical skill of Professor WHEWELL, or the infinite ingenuity of Archbishop WHATELEY, to distort the conduct of the Foreign Secretary or of the Ambassador to the Court of Madrid into acts that may be considered either as culpable or injudicious. This evening it is the intention of Lord STANLEY to revive the discus sion on the singular correspondence to which we have alluded, by repeating in the Upper House the inquiries last night made in the Lower House by Lord PALMERSTON'S perpetual catechist, Mr. UR QUHART. Whatever may be the consequence of that correspondence, no one, with the smallest modicum of candour, will accuse Lord PALMERSTON of precipita tion, Or Sir HENRY LYTTON BULWER of an oblivion of the etiquette of diplomacy. Fragments of intelligence respecting the inaugu ration of the National Assembly—appearing as they necessarily do this evening in detached passages — cannot afford an adequate idea of the cordiality of the cce pta tion of the republican form of goverment by the nine hundred newly-elected representatives. Time must elapse, discussions must be reported, divisions must denote the relative differences of opinion among the metropolitan and departmental Deputies, before any very accurate notion can be acquired of the proportion of numbers among the Ultras, the Royalists, and the Moderate Republicans. Enough, however, has been already revealed to show that a triumphant majority has secured to the latter the preponderance in the legislative convocation. Moderation, as the presiding principle of the new democratic regime of France, was welcomed by the acclamations of the multitude at the very moment when the Provisional Government was elevated to a temporary dictatorship upon the barricades of Paris. It was welcomed on that eventful evening when the Chambre des Deputes was occupied by the insur gents ; it was accepted on that glorious morning when M. DE LAMARTINE announced the abolition of royalty ; it was rendered the permanent doctrine of the population during that solemn demonstration of fealty which, in the space of a single hour, sur rounded the Hotel de Vale with a forest of protecting bayonets, on that festival of fraternization, when a procession of armed citizens defiled beneath the Ara d'Etoile during fourteen consecutive hours, and, af terwards, in that crowded theatre, when the audience recognized the Provisional Minister fur Foreign Af fairs in a private box, and when the emotions of the poet-statesman were so supreme that his face was buried in his hands, while the crowd rose like one man in homage to the cause with which his name has become identified, and made the walls of the building vibrate with the watch-word of Moderation—Five LAMAR• TINE! There is no necessity to speculate upon the possibility of a Communist Administration; the vic tory of the Moderates is indisputable. LAMARTINE and his colleagues obtained the ascendency on the 24th of February ; they had definitively secured that ascendancy to themselves prior to the 4th of May. In this circumstance there is the more reason for a profound satisfaction, as the question of their success is not a question of men, but a question of principles. The splendid and unparalleled ovation of M. DE LA MARTINE is less significant as a testimony of admira tion to th e poet o f El v i ra, than as a token o f reverence for the the august vi s i ons , t h e h umane asp i ra ti ons , an d enbeneficentdneyunveiled naovmfe ibled the projects to the million. iti o nw hi ch h o i f s l virile Moderate an t d is capaciousß becauseep u b li itnhteellteet has e canism are eminently pacific and ameliorative, and not because LAMAILTINE is a great . historian, or A i xi R ai tt o G r t y a f g rtehaet Provisional astronomer, G t e h y a e t there t Government is in a p h w o o f r t t h h y e i n t o t h e hands of the subjecto n t for he e e x v e ul t e a f ti on. resigning national representation the responsibilities with which they had been entrusted by the acclamation s of the people, the Provisional Ministers have issued a farewell proclamation. In that document of majestic adieux, there is this exquisite sentence :—" Citizens! Royalty is for ever vanquished : let there be no more privileges—but equality : let there be no more room fur divisions—but fraternity ! La royaute, ciloyens, eat a jamais vaincre; plus de privilege, re ga lit e ; plus de place aux divisions, la fraternity.''

Of France, as reverenced in its antiquity by the suavity of its song and the splendour of its heroism, it has already been chaunted by Lestms.n, " Some sweet Racin e for minstrel, Some fierce Turenu e in war, Links the glory of old Athens, To the Roman victor's car." Yet it has elsewhere been argued, by that SPAIN. Madrid journals of the 29th ult. have been re ceived. It appears that the QUEEN was induced to relin quish her claim to her arrears of income at the instance of Queen CHRISTINA, into whose pocket the said arrears had in some mysterious manner found their way. Mr. BULWEE has received a note from Lord PALMERSTON, censuring him for permitting the con tents of his dispatches to transpire through the news papers, but warmly praising him for his spirited reply to the Duke of SOTOMAYOB'S insolent note. A warm remonstrance has, it is said, been presented by the French Government to the Spanish Ministry, and a Ministerial crisis is expected. M. DR LESSEPS, the newly-appointed Charge d'Affaires of the French Republic, left Bayonne fur Madrid on the Ist inst. At Bordeaux he had inter views with the Chamber of Commerce of that place, and promised in the name of the Provisional Govern ment to exert himself to induce the Spanish Cabinet to make concessions calculated to increase the com merce between the two countries. According to the directions of his Government, he is to put himself in communication with the Chambers of Commerce of Bayonne, Marseilles, and Perpignan in the same manner as he did at Bordeaux, for the purpose of obtaining information calculated to further his mission. General VILLALONGA has been appointed Captain- General of Navarre. The state of the money. market in Madrid is deplorable. A military banquet, which was to have been held on the 29th, has been put off in consequence of appre hended disturbances.

The Moniteur publishes a decree granting an ex traordinary credit for war purposes (believed to refer to an intention of immediate interference in Italy) of three million two hundred thousand pounds sterling. The Moniteur also publishes a valedictory address to the people from the Provisional Government, in which the members of the Government inform their fellow-citizens that they will this day return into their hands the power which had been confided to them, and thank them for their cordial co-operation and support in the midst of their arduous duties. A programme of the proceedings to be adopted is also published in the Moniteur. The members of the Provisional Government were to meet at twelve, at the Ministry of Justice, and from thence to go on foot to the National Assembly, passing through the lines of troops and National Guards. On the meet ing of the Assembly, at one o'clock, a salute of 21 cannon would be fired from the Invalides and th i e Champs Elysees. A signal would be given at the moment the Republic was proclaimed by the Assembly, and the troops and National Guards were to present arms, and the bands to strike up the national ai:s. The same honours were to be renewed, at a given signal, when the Assembly should be constituted. An order has been issued to the commander of the troops to cause the National Guards, and troops of the line, artillery, &c., to be called out to unite in and give increased splendour to the national celebration. The spacious line of road, commencing at the Place Vendome, leading up to the Rue de la Pais, along► the Boulevard de la Madeleine, the Rue Royale, and the Place de la Concorde, to the Chamber, will be lined by National Guards and troops of the line. Artillery will be stationed in the Champs Elysees, and on the esplanade of the In valides. The Chamber is ordered to be placed under the special safeguard of the National Guard. A battalion will be placed within it and around it each day at noon, and this duty will be confided successively from day to day to the several battalions. The following is the programme of the business for the day before the National Assembly : " NATIONAL ASSEMBLY. " ORDER OF THE DAY FOR THURSDAY, MAY 4. " AT MIDDAY. " Public sitting. " Meeting of the representatives of the people in the hall of meeting. "AT ONE O'CLOCK PRECISELY. "Introduction of the Provisional Government and of the members.

" Verification ot powers. " Ballot (if there should be occasion for it) for the no mination of a President, six Vice-Presidents, six Secre taries, and three Questors. " Installation of the definitive bureau." The following is the farewell proclamation of the Provisional Government to the people : "Citizens,—Tomorrow the National Assembly will open. To-morrow the Provisional Government will replace in the hands of the representatives ot the people the power which the acclamation of the people confided to it. In laying down our functions, citizens, we wish to offer you all our thanks for the devoted assistance which your patriotism bas afforded us. We wish, by way ot adieu, to say a few words of un ion and concord. You have presented to the world, in difficult times, a beauti ful and great spectacle.

SCHLESWIG-110LSTEIN RENDSUURG, MAY 2.--The Provisional Govern • ment has issued the following proclamation :—`. In consequence of the war which now subsists between the Duchies of Schleswig-Holstei❑ and the kingdom of Denmark, all and every communication, whatever, between the persons belonging to these states and the enemy, are hereby positively interdicted. Those per sons especially who reside on the coasts are stringently prohibited from having any communication or inter course with the enemy's ships of war. Any person who transgresses this command shall he instantly arrested and transported to the fortress of Rendsburg, and there be placed at the bar of justice, when he sill receive condign punishment according to the circum stances of the case. " Whereunto all and every one of the inhabitants of the said Duchies of Schleswig-Holstein are to have due regard. "Rendsburg, May 1, 1848. " The Provisional Government. " BESELER. " REVENTLOW.

According to a letter from our correspondent at Hadersleben, ➢lay 1, the first divison of Prussians marched from thence to Jutland on the previous evening. The distance to Kolding might be traversed in four hours, but it is thought that they will halt for the night at Christiansfeld. The Emperor ALEXANDER'S regiment of Guards and the Hussars were expected at Hadersleben yes terday. This moment (half-past four o'clock, P.m.), we have received the Copenhagen journals of May 1 ; they were brought by the Nordstjen steamer Ka Labcc. They contain a short address from the King of DEN• ms nx to the inhabitants of Copenhagen, thanking th , in for the marks of devotion and attachment which they have manifested towards him since his return home, assures them of his love, and promises that he will go hand in hand with them, and share their lot in weal or woe. The Berlinger Zeitung observes that no mail has arrived from abroad, nor is there any intelligence of importance from the provinces. The report of General HEDEMANN, of the 28th, speaks merely of the assembling of the troops at Alsen. A report has been received from General W EDELL, according to which the right wing of the army (principally cavalry) is slowly proceeding northwards. Both General WRANGEL and General HEDEMANN have sent Parliamentaries to the repulsive enemies' quarters, neither of them, how ever, have a diplomatic mission, but are charged with making inquiries about the wounded and the prisoners. The Fadrelandet's reports from Elsinore of the 29th state that the Commandant of Kronborg and the superintendent of the guard• ship, had not up to that day received any orders to bring in Hanoverian, Mecklenburg, or Hanseatic ships. The official report gives the number of Schleswig Holsteiners confine as prisoners in Copenhagen at 773. About 150 men of the Hamburgh contingent left this morning for Cuxhaven for the protection of the coast. The steamer Gutenburg passed Cuxhaven yesterday morning, accompanied by a small cutter, bringing in the Danish brig Thorwalsden as a prize. DENMARK. COPENHAGEN, APRIL 29.—The King arrived here this afternoon in perfect health. We have not yet received an exact official state ment respecting the numbers of our dead and wounded. Above fifty officers are missing since the commencement of tke campaign, more than forty of whom are classed among the dead and wounded. The army corps (infantry and artillery, for we have DO accounts from the cavalry which is gone north wards) are in admirable condition, the battalions from 600 to 700 men strong, and the artillery complete. The Danish journals agree in estimating the Danish army at Schleswig Holstein at 10,000 or id' led 12,000 men, and their number of dead and wolin 1,500. From a private letter from Copenhagen it appears that a Danish frigate has gone northwards from Elsinore, for the purpose of cruizing in the Elbe, and two merchantmen, completely equipped on a war footing have left the harbour to be stationed at Skagen. RUSSIA AND POLAND• ST. PETERSBURGH.—The EMPEROR has declared with pointed emphasis in his last manifesto that the defences spoken of therein can be only so far under stood that even in the event of some of the free corps crossing the Russian frontier, they shall merely be driven back, and Russia will not recognise in in" tringements of this kind any breach of the treaties of peace.—llamburgh Papers, Nay 2.
