ACCIDENT TO TEE STEAMER MADRAB.—SOUTH AMPTON, MONDAY, MARCY' 29.—As the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's screw steam-ship Marini was leaving the tidal basin of the Southampton Docks' this afternoon, to commence her first voyage to Gib raltar, Malta, and Constantinople, her propeller became foul of one of the chains of the mooring buoy in the centre of the dock ; this obstruction immediately brought up the en sines which were in motion, and prevented the Madras from moving ant of the dock. As the chain was found to re main foul of the screw, Captain Engledue, the superintend ent of the company, at once ordered the signal for sailing to be hauled down, and a portion of the cargo to be discharged. It is apprehended that no damage has been done, but it is possible the screw may have been strained, and as a precau tionary measure, therefor e , after the vessel has been light ened, She will be placed in the graving -dock, and the inju ries (if any) set to rights. The departure of the Madras will, in consequence, be Postponed for a day or two. A large gang of men is empl oyed in hoisting out that portion of the cargo which it may be f ound necessary to remove. No blame attac h o tO ti re coluni4nder or officers. The Madras has about 20 pa,001;01-y large and valuable cargo, cone i s ting of over L(x) s and a vertoßsnieasurk nieut of manufactured goods, for the Levan t a n d r,I aelz Sea markets.

After wielding the sword of despotism with a resolute hand during a period of three months, the PRINCE PxEsIDENT sheathed it, as had been done by his predecessor, General CAVAIGNAC, in the pre sence of the assembled Legislature. His individual responsibilities have in this manner, to a considerable extent, terminated, and France may now breathe some what more freely than it has been possible for her to do ever since the memorable coup d' itat of the 2d of December. A Constitution based upon the prin ciples asserted by that of the Year VIII., or, in other words, of the Consulate, has consequently in this manner been inaugurated. All those arbitrary pro ceedings which were found to be necessary after the Socialist rising of June, as well as after the anarchical intrigues of November, are now declared by Lours NAPOLEON to be henceforth uncalled-for, and there fore henceforth illegal. So far from assuming to himself any power to act in the summary manner he has of late deemed most advisable, the PRINCE pro claims that his tyrannical authority ceased with the pageant of yesterday. All the extraordinary privi lege reserved to himself personally is the right of ap pealing again to the nation at any moment of really remarkable emergency. Everything, indeed, tes tifies that the liberties of the French people are in a fair way of being secured to them now more advantageously than ever, seeing that the Republic has at length been consolidated upon a broader basis than was hitherto practicable. Without any question, the most remarkable feature in the events of yesterday was the speech delivered by the PRINCE PRESIDENT from the dais erected at the extremity of the Salle des Mareschaux, in the ancient Palace of the Tuileries. The importance of that address, the nobility of the sentiments it expresses, its:candour, its simplicity; its evidences of complete and unaffected self-abnegation—reduce to insignificance all the other and subordinate incidents of the cere monial. Lours NAPOLEON must have felt assured that he was pronouncing his views upon that occasion not merely in the presence of the Senate, of the Council of State, and of the Corps Diplomatique, but in that of all his fellow-countrymen and of the great bulk of his contemporaries. He must have been perfectly aware that every syllable then falling from his lips would be heard by the people of France and by the nations of Europe: He spoke not only before them, but before history and before posterity ; and that his views were consonant with the exigency of his position, that they were compatible with the requirements of the ag^, that they were in accordance with the aspirations of democracy—let justice pronounce. Having referred to the almost be wildering difficulty of hie situation prior to the 21 of December—a situation so embarrassing and anoma lous in its character that, says be, " I confess I often had the idea of abandoning a power so dis puted"—having alluded, moreover, to the manner in which France had been saved from the interminable perils of anarchy by the dissipation of the intrigues of the conspirators, and by his direct demand of new institutions from the hands of the population—Louis NAroLEore remarked, " For too long a time society had resembled a pyramid turned upside down, and I have replaced it on its basis." Thereupon he conti nued, " Universal suffrage, the only source of right in such conjunctures, was restored," and " authority gained the ascendant." Order being thus evoked from confusion, the people readily accepted their new political institutions—the more readily because they were such as alone possess the attributes of durability, " fixing in an equitable manner the limits to which each power ought to be con fined." In illustration of the accuracy of that defi nition the PRINCE inquired, "Why in 1814, despite our reverses, was the inauguration of the Parlia mentary plahl"811°1 that he yesterday en taTY system seen with satisfaction ?" His ansero, to this inquiry demonstrates that his judg ment i not altogether warped by the influence of imperial . " u 'rellirs, that he is not wholly infatuated to the memory of NAPOLEON. " It by his devotion "because the EMPEROR—Iet us not w as," says he, intowar too had been led on account pas t h e an exercise of ' of f ar t t h e e make the avowal— hiinesrculltion of presence of PRINCE PRESIDENT explicit in allegiance to the popular 111 power." will, to be cro u sv p u on ed the wi s t u b bj t e h c o t insomuch was otnhe. purple, spontaneously declare d of iad h e i m s airandpurtoebdedamwbiittihd inthe the national representatives, and of the foreign am . bassadors—the folly of those who reported hi m to be . thus demented with imperi a l aspira tions. " It has been frequently repeated," sa i d be, " that I desire to re-establish the Empire. If suc h had been my Constant pre-occupation, that transfor. mation would have been accomplished long since-- there were wanting to me neither means nor Oppor tunities." He then reminds the nation that among those opportunities were the lOth of December, 1848, followed by the 13th of June, 1849, and that fol lowed again by the 2d of December, 1851 —asserting that, in 1849, it would have been as easy for bhn to have changed the form of government, as it would have been easy, in 1848, to have secured a throne, by refusing, on the strength of 6,000,000 of suffrages, to acquiesce in the Constitution, or in 1851 to have demanded a "pom pous title" from the people who accorded him 7,500,000 votes under the shadow of the ballot. In stead, therefore, of aspiring to the baubles of the crown and the sceptre, Xdovie kiAtazox avowed himself to be as determined to-day as he was before to do everything for France and nothing for himself —asseverating that he will accept no modification of the present state of things unless he be obliged to do so by evident necessity. "Whence," he asked, "can this pro ceed ? Solely from the conduct of the Parties ; if they submit, nothing will be altered ; but if, by their secret proceedings, they would strive to undermine the basis of my government, then, but only then, it might be reasonable to demand from the people, in the name of the peace of France, a new title that would irre vocably fix on my head the power which it has in vested in me." That memorable declaration in which the PRINCE PRESIDENT holds out to the political dis turbers of France the threat of appealing to the nation to proclaim him the " Emperor NAPOLEON III.," if driven to that step by the sinister machinations of the anarchists we regard as, perhaps, of all, practically speaking, the most salutary avowal in the address. It contains within it the strongest security France has long enjoyed of the maintenance of the general tranquillity. It does this by announcing that the restoration of the Empire will be the inevitable result of the renewal of conspiracies—whether on the part of the Bourbons or of the Socialists. But, no ! ex claimed the PRINCE PRESIDENT, in conclusion —" LET U 3 MAINTAIN THE REPUBLIC : IT MENACES NOBODY, BUT RE-ASSURES BOBBY ONi Having by that noble and patriotic evidence of his allegiance to the democratic principles animating the mass of the French multitude, the PRINCE observed that in consequence of the friendly relations estab- lished between his own and the rest of the Govern ments of Christendom, the energies of the Republic might be exclusively directed to the labours of in ternal amelioration. Such were the sentiments with which Louis NAroLßol opened the Legislative Chambers under the new Constitution—sentiments remarkable in one whose very name seems to be the blending of the monarchical and imperial powers under the shadow of purely de mocratic institutions sentiments in every way honourable to the man who is immeasureably more than the heir of an Emperor, being the elected first of 6,000,000, and afterwards of 7,500,000 of free citizens voting through the ballot and by universal suffrage. Happily, the chief among the insignia of his office is no longer the sword of a Dictator, but the fasces of a Republican Magistrate. The new Militia Bill was last night brought for ward by the Secretary of State for the Home De partment, in a clear and well-considered speech, and it was received with as much favour by all parties as could reasonably be anticipated for any measure of the kind. Of course the licn. Gentleman the Mem ber for the Weit Riding put forward some of the fallacies of the Peace Society, and there were others ready and willing to support his views. There was no person who for a moment conceived that any proposition, however judicious, would be carried una nimously. It is a topic on which there must neces sarily be conflicting opinions. Some appear to think that there should be an universal disarmament ; that the time is rapidly approaching when " the lion shall lie down with the lamb," " and brethren dwell toge ther in unity." Others are convinced that there is a firm determination on the part of some one or more of the continental powers to invade Great Britain, and to crush our national institutions. Every grade and variety of opinion between these extremes has its representative or re presentatives, and it is only strange that on such a subject, that led to the recent change of Mi nistry, there should have been so very little contro versy or discussion, and that the motion of the Right Honourable Gentleman should have been carried even without a division. Much care appears to have been taken with the details of the present Bill, so as to avoid the objections to which its predecessor was justly liable. Although the ballot or conscription is not expressly abolished, yet it is virtually set aside, so far as practicable, by the introduction of a system of enlistment with rea sonable bounties, pay, &c., which will in all human probability procure the attendance of a sufficient number of volunteers to completely obviate the ne cessity for " pressed men," or, what is almost equally objectionable, of substitutes, procured at the private cost of the parties whose names might be drawn from the urn. The true principle in every such case is that the nation should pay for the services that may be required, and do so with sufficient liberality to obtain suitable per sons, willing to undertake the necessary duties, and that is kept in view in the present measure. The number of persons to be embodied is 80,000, of whom it is intended that 50,000 should be raised during the present year, and 30,000 in the course of next year, the period of service for each being five years. This division will have the double advan tage, first, of not causing too great an outlay in a single year, and, secondly, that all the trained men will not be discharged at the same time, but that there will be some remaining qualified to assist in drilling the raw recruits. Bounties will be offered to men voluntarily enlisting of from 31. to 41. each, or from 2 to 25.61. per month, at the option of the party coming forward. Inducements would, of course, be offered to those willing to accept pay ment by instalments, which might, probably, tempt many of the agricultural labourers, the class whence volunteers might chiefly be looked for. These parties would derive much benefit from a permanent addition to their net receipts, and, as the periods of service might be so arranged as to fall within the times when they are usually out of employment, the occupation would be hailed as a boon rather than complained of as a grievance. The number of days' training in the year is fixed at twenty-one, power being reserved to the Executive, however, to extend the period to seven weeks, in case or cases of emer gency, or to diminish it to three days. The men are to be embodied or called out for further services according to the provisions of the existing law, viz., in case of actual in vasion or imminent danger. These are the chief enactments relating to the men. With regard to the officers, the various qualifications required by the 26th George 111. are to be dispensed with for all beneath the rank of major, and former service in the regular army is, in every case, and for every grade, to be considered sufficient qualification. These are the chief points of the present Bill ; and they appear to be as free from objection as any framed for a similar purpose could possibly be. We have never joined in the ridiculous panic excited, we have never for a moment supposed that there was greater danger of invasion at this time than at any period during the preceding thirty-five years, and we earnestly protest against the insult necessarily offered to other European powers by such an idea. But at all times we recognise the propriety of perfect preparation, not for purposes of aggression, not with the intent or object of exciting the jealousy of continental nations, but strictly for self-defence. The truth of the adage, "Si vis pacem, para helium," has long been recognised,: and although, as we have repeatedly stated, Old England should rest her chief dependence on her wooden walls and gallant seamen, who have never been found wanting in the hour of emergency, there can be no harm, nay, there must be a very decided advantage, in having a certain number of the adult male population accustomed to the use of arms, and ready to act efficiently in the hour of danger. When we consider that of the re gular standing army not more than 25,000 could be rendered available at any point, we must admit that the addition of 80,000 men, well drilled and fully exercised, will afford a moat valuable auxiliary force, sufficient to remove any possible danger. The expense for this efficient guarantee for our lives, liberties, and properties, will be about I , 2o o,oyears, or about 240,0001. per annum, if spread over the entire period. This is not a very large premium of insurance for such a country as Great Britain to pay for security. It is less than intuereehst more n or E e u w a l l i s at f i o s r pri vate not very m was willing to throw as a sop to capitalists as un necessary w ill now stand over until after Easter before the second reading is moved for. In the roeantime, the vo i c e of public opinion will be heard on the subject. When we recollect, however, that Lord PALMER' BTON has unequivocally pronounced in its favour, declaring that he will give it all the support in his Lord j power, that even °EN RUSSELL said that it would not j m tifit4Vle to offer any opposition to its ord one-third of.i ci for fin LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, MARCH 30, 1852. introduction, we must acknowledge that the first great attempt at legislation by Ministers has been more successful than could have been anticipated, and that if other propositions be a 9 equitable and well devised, the nation will have cause to bless the se cession of the GREY•RUSSELL Miniery. A brief but interesting discussion took place last night on the subject of the renewal of certain Ex chequer-bills, and the rate of interest that should be payable thereon. It was a subject, however, in which the late Government, or rather the late Chancellor of the Exchequer, were more interested than the present. It was cne of those gross and palpable jobs for the benefit of the moneyocracy, respecting which so many loud and well-founded complaints have from time to time been preferred. The question was, whether there was any necessity for paying far more interest than would willingly be accepted by a certain class of the public creditors, whether the nation should insist on paying a higher rate of interest than would freely and wil lingly be accepted. Money can now be freely obtained in the City at two per cent. on first-class securities. Why should a higher rate be paid on Government paper, the best of any ? if Sir WILLIAM BLACKSTONE be considered as an authority. But the prices which these bills command in the market afford the most conclusive evidence of their universal acceptation. The quotations of yesterday show that they sell at from 68s. to 71s. premium, or rather more than a year and a half's interest. These premiums are quietly transferred from the public purse to the pockets of private individuals without any adequate object. Sir CHARLES WOOD might if he pleased have reduced the rate of interest by id. or id. per diem, by which he would have effected a saving of from 150,0001. to 225,000/. per annum. But the Right Hon. Baronet was not the man to reduce the profits of capitalists, or to save the pockets of the poor, at the expense of the wealthy. He, ac cordingly, notwithstanding the unprecedented amount of bullion in the vaults, and of unemployed notes in the banking department of the Bank of England, renewed the bills at the old rate, and thus did all in his power to keep up the burden on the people at the highest rate. Fortunately, however, his successor will be enabled in June to settle a rate of interest more suitable to the condition of affairs at the present moment, and we confess that we do not anticipate the same truckling or subser viency to the Plutocrats from Mr. DISRAELI for which Sir CHARLES WOOD was so painfully con spicuous. The matter, although of comparatively trivial importance to the great questions of public policy, is yet one that should not be lost sight of by the several constituencies at the general election. Financial reformers should bear these points in mind, and make economy and retrench ment one of the chief topics on which aspirants for senatorial fame should be most closely interrogated on the hustings. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. OPENING OF THE FRENCH CHAMBERS. The ceremony of opening the French Chambers took place yesterday. At one o'clock the PRINCE PRESI DENT set forth from the Elysee in a carriage surrounded by a guard of honour composed of the Carabineers. Many cried " Vive Napoleon" as he passed along, but there was nothing like zealous or extravagant enthu siasm. At the Tuileries a double lino of soldiers was drawn up within the court, and the grand staircase was lined with Gendarmerie Mobile. All the time the can non fired as in the time of the monarchy. Tho eceno in the Salle des Mareschaux was very imposing, seats covered with crimson velvet were arranged for the members of the different corps, and at the top, in the centre, a sort of dais was formed, composed of crimson velvet, with a gold eagle; the gallery, hung also with crimson velvet, was allotted exclusively to the ladies. A little before one o'clock the Corps Legislatif were introduced and took their seats on the left of the raised fauteuil of the PRINCE PRESIDENT; ♦ery few of the members were in costume. The Corps Diplomatique, the Senate, and the Council of State were severally introduced and took their seats—the Ambassadors on the right of the room, and the Senate on the right front of the Presidential chair. As soon as all were seated, the PRINCE PRESI• DENT entered in the full dress of a general officer, at tended by his Ministers and by a staff of general officers, colonels of regiments, councillors of state, &o. His re ception was of the warmest kind. Having bowed with great affability on all sides, he proceeded to read, stand ing and uncovered all the time, the following Installa tion Speech:— " Messieurs the Senators, and Messieurs the Deputies, " The Diotatorship which the people confided to me ceases to-day. Things are about to resume their regular course. It is with a sentiment of real satisfaction that I come to pro claim here the establishment of the Constitution ; for my constant pre-occupation has been not only to re-establish order, but to render it durable by endowing France with in sti,utions adapted to her wants. " Only a few months ago, as you will recollect, the more I endeavoured to confine myself within the circle of my attri bution, the greater were the efforts made to restrict it, in order to deprive me of movement and action. I confess I often felt so discouraged, that I bad the idea of abandoning a power which was so disputed. What withheld me was that I saw that only one thing could succeed me, and that was anarchy. Everywhere, in fact, the ardent passion for de struction was rising without:capacity to found anything. No where was there an institution or a man to whom to attach oneself; nowhere an undisputed right; no organization of any kind, or a system capable of bein g rea li se d. " Thus when, thanks to the aid of some courageous men, thanks especially to the energetic attitude of the army, all perils were removed in a few hours, my first concern was to demand institutions at the hands of the people. For too long a time society had resembled a pyramid turned upside down, and I have replaced it on its basis. Universal suf frage, the only source of right in such conjunctures, was im mediately restored. Authority regained the ascendant; in fine, France, adopting the principal dispositions of the Con stitution that I submitted to her, opportunity was afforded me to create political bodies, whose influence and considera tion will be the greater according as their attributes shall be wisely regulated. " Amongst political institutions, in fact, those alone have durability which fix in an equitable manner the proper limits to which each power ought to be confined. There is no other way of arriving at a useful and beneficial application of liberty. Examples enough are near at hand. " Why in 1814 was the inauguration of the Parliamentary system seen with satisfaction, despite of our reverses? It was because the Emperor—let us not fear to make the avowal —had been led, on account of the war, into too absolute an exercise of power. " Why, on the contrary, in 1851, did France rejoice in the fall of the same Parliamentary regime ? It was because the Chambers had abused the influence that had been allowed them; for wishing to dominate, they compromised the ge neral equilibrium. " In tine, why did not France show herself moved at the restrictions imposed on the liberty of the press and on per sonal liberty? It is because the one had degenerated into licentiousness, and that the other, instead of being the legal exercise of the right of each, had, by odious excesses, me naced the rights of all. " This extreme danger, especially for democracies, the having to see unceasingly ill-defined institutions sacrifice liberty and power by turns, had been perfectly comprehended by our fathers half a century ago, when escaping from revo • lutionary troubles, and after a vain trial of all kinds of re gimes they proclaimed the Constitution of the year VIII., which has served as the model for that of 1852. Without doubt, the liberties, to the abuse of which we had become accustomed, are not all sanctioned, but still real liberties are consecreed. Thus the day following revolutions the first of securities does not consist in the im moderate use of the tribune and the press, it is to be found in the right to choose a suitable Government. Now the French nation, perhaps, for the first time, has given to the world the imposing spectacle, a great people voting in full liberty the form of its government. " Thus the Chief of the State who you have before you is truly the expression of the popular will; and what do I see before me ? Two Chambers, the one elected by virtue of the most liberal law existing in the world ; the other named, it is true, by myself, but also independent, because immove able. " Around me you behold men of recognised patriotism and merit ready to support me with their.counsels, and to en lighten me as to the wants of the country. " This Constitution, which to-day is to be put in practice, is not the work of a vain theory or of despotism—it is the work of experience and reason. You will aid me to consoli date it, to extend, and to ameliorate. "I will cause to be made known to the Senate and Corps Legislatif the state of the situation of the Republic. They will see by it that co n fid ence h as b een everywhere restored, that work has recovered, and that, for the first time after a great political change, the public fortune has increased in stead of being diminished. " During the past four months, it has been possible for my Government to encourage many useful undertakings, to recompense many services, to succour much want, to exalt even the position of the greatest number of principal func tionaries; and all that without adding to the estimates of the budget, which we are happy to present you in a balanced state. Such facts, taken with the attitude of Europe, which has received with satisfaction the changes that have been made, gives us just hope of security for the future; for if peace is secured within, it is equally so without. Foreign powers respect our independence, iv d it is for all our inte rests to keep with them the most amicable relations. So long as the honour of France shall not be engaged, it will be the duty of the Government to avoid carefully all cause of perturbation in Europe, and to turn all our attention to internal ameliorations, which can alone procure comfort for the laborious classes, and ensure the prosperity of the country. " And now, gentlemen, at the moment when you are asso ciating yoursOves with my labours, I win explain to you frankly what my conduct shall be. It has been frequently repeated, when I was seen h to o re-establish the institutions and the recollections of t Empire, that I desire to re-establish the Empire itseat. If such had been m constant pre -occupation, .th transformation would have been accomplished long since. Neither means nor opportunity have been wanting to me. " Thus, iat tßii - - 8 , when six millions of suffrages named me, in spite of the Constituent, I was not ignorant that the simple refusal to acquiesce in the Constitution might give me a throne, but I was not seduced by an elevation which would necessarily produce serious disturbances. " It was equally easy for me to change the form of the g overnment on the 13th Jane, 18 49 t I YTIAI d 12 3 sl9 io, "In fine, on the 2d December, if personal considerations had prevailed over the grave interests of the country, I might at first have demanded a pompous title of the people which they would not have refused me. I contented myself with that which I had. "Consequently, when I borrow examples from the Con sulate and Empire, it is because I find them there parti cularly stamped with nationality and grandeur. Being de termined to-day, as before, to do everything for France and nothing for myself, I should accept no modification of the present state of things, unless I was obliged to do so by evident necessity. Whence can it arise? Solely from the conduct of parties. If they resign themselves nothing shall be changed; but if, by their underhand intrigues, they endeavoured to sap the basis of my Government; in their blindness, they contested the legitimacy of the po pular election ; if, finally, they endangered, by their inces sant attacks, the future prospects of the Ministry, then, and only then, it may be reasonable to demand from the people, in the name of the repose of France, a new title, which will irrevocably fix upon my head the power with which they in vested me. " But let us not preoccupy ourselves with difficulties, which no doubt have nothing probable. Let us maintain the Republic; it menaces nobody, and may reassure every body. tinder its banner I wish to inaugurate anew an era of oblivion and conciliation, and I call distinctly upon all those who wish to co-operate with me in forwarding the public good. "Providence, which has hitherto so visibly blessed my ex ertions, will not leave its work unfinished. It will animate us with its inspirations, and give us the wisdom and power necessary to consolidate the order of things which will insure the happiness of our country and the repose of 17... rope." Immense applause greeted the various salient points of this address; and at the end cheering and cries of " Vive NAPOLEON ! " were enthusiastic. _ _ The Minister of State then proceeded to administer to the PRINCE PRESIDENT the oath of fidelity, and obedience to the Constitution. The ceremony was very simple, each person, on his name being called, rose and stretching forth hie hand, said " Je le jure." The first to take the oath was the Prince JEROME, and then followed the calling over the names of the sena tors. Some sensation was evidently felt at the moment the names of General CAVAIGNAC and M. CAnNoT were pronounced by there being no reply, both ion. Mem bers having absented themselves. Immediately after the swearing was over the Minister of State an nounced the session to have opened, and all separated. The ceremony did not occupy more than 40 minutes. Several additional decrees are promulgated in the columns of the .lloni€eur. Messrs. LEON FAUCHER and others are authorised to open a loan on mortgage bank, in conformity with the late law. Salaries of prefects are raised. Native Engler pays 45t., and foreign 57f. only, the 100 kilogrammes. Foreign refined sugar is prohibi ted. Bank of France is authorised to lend on obligations of the city of Paris. A❑ amnesty is granted to sailors who have deserted. The papers contain no observations of importance in their comments on, or rather analyses of, the decrees which appeared on Sunday. The PRINCE PRESIDENT has pardoned forty persons condemned to transportation, and who were on their way to Algeria. The order for their release was sent to Cette by telegraph. Since the elevation of the Archbishop of BORDEAUX to the dignity of Cardinal France has six Cardinals, viz., the Archbishops of BOURGES, CAIIBRAI, REIMS, LYONS, BESANCON, and BORDEAUX.
