JUNE 14, 1849. There has been ag Lin a demonstration in the streets of Paris. Yesterday twenty-five thousand men, belonging to the National Guard, and the school=, assembled unarmed a the Chateau d'Eau, for the purpos- of going in procession to the Legis lative A•sembly to present a protest against the de ci,ion or the Assembly on Tuesday, and a petition praying that the French Republic should recognise that of Rome, both perfectly legitimate and I, gal objects, and therefore objects which the Logitimatist General CUANGARNIER, acting in collision with Jesuit DE FALLOUT, was determined to circumvent, and not circumvent only, but to turn, if possible, into an excuse for commencing that political St. Bar tholomew of the French Patriots, which the apologist of the Catholic St. Bartholomew is so ambitious of undertaking. The PRESIDENT of the Republic is, we regret to say, the same weak, vain, giddy person that he ever was; since the days of the Eglinton tournament i and of the expedition of Bolougne he is nut one whit al tered. Like the BOURI3OI.a, he has not learned any thing, although it appears he has entirely forgotten who were the persons who imprisoned him for seven years at Earn ; and so long as he can indulge in his nightly jolliecations at the Elysee he cares not how the world wags. H He is a mere tool in the hands of others—the CirARLEs IX. of the new St. Bartho- lomew's. Neither is the pompous, bald-headed old gentleman who acts as President of the Council to be considered so culpable as the prime mover in this affair, M. DE FALLOUX. M. ODIL ON BARROT OCOUpIeS the saline posi tion in the French Ministry which Lord LIVERPOOL for so long a period held in the English Ministry, of which he was nomireelly chief, and knows about as much of the procetdittgs of M. DE FALLOUX as did the respectable Lord LIVERPOOL of those of Lord CASTLEREAGH. But, albeit the share of MM. LOUIS NAPOLEON BONAPARTE and ODILON BAR ROT in the per,etration of these treasonable designs may be less than that of MM. CRANGARNIER and DE FALLona, yet are they tot one whit the less respon siVe, morally or legally, for whatever may occur ; and, albeit the people have as yet behaved admirably, have resisted every provocation to outbreak, and the provocations have been neither few nor far between, yet there is a point beyond which human endurance cannot go; and should the people ultimately rise in their might, +.llould barricades be erected, should fighting take place, should blood be shed, for every drop of blood so shed the PRESIDENT a'id his Ministers will be re sponsib:e te.fere GOD and before man. They have violated the Consticetion, an 1 in defending the Con s'itution the people ere in th ir right. The PRESIDENT and 104i1.1.11, - it,,te,r*,exel cise their power solely by vir tuyer:the C‘oristititiknAvhich they have sworn to ob / 4erve; if they violate'tt, the people, as guardians of the - Coratitationi have, *ler the I 11th Article, the - 4 " , -.;;;;'4& R 0 rf ~ r kt A t g i THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 14, 1849. undoubted right of deposiog them, should the As sembly refuse to do its duty by putting them under accusation. If they pretend that they exercise power by any other authority than by that of the Constitu tion, then are they usurpers and outlaws. So much for the law of the case, and now comes the question, have they violated the Constitution ? Undoubtedly they have violated the Constitution by their unjust, impolitic, iniquitous war against Rome. The Con stitution declares that the PRESIDENT has not the right of declaring war or making peace—that right belongs to the Assembly alone. The Government applied to the Constituent Assembly for permission to send an expedition to occupy some point of the Roman territory, in order to uphold the interests of France in Italy, which were threatened by the victory of the Austrians at Novarra ; that per mission was given on the expressed condition that the Roman Republic should not be attacked. The expe dition landed at Civita Vecchia, and General OUDI NOT, in direct contravention of the wishes of the Assembly, acting, it is said, under secret orders from M. DE FALLOUX, the favourite of the PRESIDENT and the representative of the Parti Pretre in the Cabinet, which orders were conveyed to him by Monsignor DE FALLOUX, the brother of the French Minister and a priest in the personal service of the POPE, attacked Rome and was defeated. On the 7th May the Con stituent Assembly, who aline had the right of declaring war, refused to do so, passed a vote of censure on the Ministers, and ordered them to recal the expedition to its original purpose, which was, be it remembered, to occupy some part of the Roman territory, in order to protect French in terests in Italy, so long as those interests should be threatened by the presence of an Austrian force in the Peninsula. This order was contemptuously disobeyed, and on the Sunday which intervened be tween the rising of the Constituent Assembly on Saturday, and the assembling of the Legislative Assembly on Monday, the Government dispatched orders to General OUDINOT to enter Rome bon gre mai gre, thus declaring war against the Roman Re public, in direct violation of the Constitution which they had sworn to observe and defend. It cannot be said that this was a case of emergency, and that there was no time to consult the Assembly. M. GOUDCFIAUX and some other members seem to have suspected some fraudulent proceeding on the part of the Government, and therefore they met in the hall of the Assembly on Sunday and continued sitting there in permanence until midnight, so that at the very time this dispatch was sent off the Assembly was sitting. Neither did the Government report to the Legislative Assembly, as it was their duty to have done on the first day of the sittting, the important step they had taken, and it was not until Monday last that M. LEDRU ROLLIN wrung from M. ODILON BARROT the tardy avowal of the commission of this breach of the Consti ution on the part of the Executive —a breach so flagrant, that not even the Ministers themselves have ven*ured to make even an attempt at its justification. In the course of this discussion M. Oothosi BARROT in vain endeavoured to rouse that false sense of national honour which has been so often appealed to as an excuse fur the commission of the most atrocious crimes. " There is something," said M. LEDRU ROLLIN, "of greater consequence even than honour: it is justice"— a noble sentiment, and one upon which we trust the French Republicans will continue to act ; but justice can bide her time ; the punishment of the avenger is all the more weighty, and the more certain, be cause her steps are slow. Let justice be dine, but let prudence be consulted, in order that it may be people are in their right done effecti....ll" Th e up to the pre5,,.... moment ; do not let them by the comniission of any '-enrudence put them selves in the wrong, and give their en,-; ‘ ,„ that op portunity w hich they so ardently desire, or ._,an guishing liberty in blood. Let them look to the example of O'CONNELL, let them look to the success of the O'Connell tactics, when adopted in France against GUIZOT and LOUIS PHILIPPE in the autumn of 1848 ; let them seek justice by peaceful agitation, and justice they will obtain, in spite of the intrigues of the DE FALLOUX, or the mercenaries of the CHAN GARNIER, even although those mercenaries should be reinforced by the Croats of JELLACHICLI, or the Cos sacks of NicuoLas. We had hoped that the unanimous decision of the House of Lords with respect to Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN and his unfortunate coadjutors—a deci,ion pronounced without the slightest doubt or hesitation, and sup ported by the most convincing arguments—would have terminated the proceedings in these painful cases. Having been cl-arly convicted of the highest crime known to the law—having exhausted every human device to frustrate the ends of justice—having had the various points of law raised in their favour most fully and ably argued before the several tribu nals until they were finally adjudicated upon in the court of ultimate resort—their forfeited lives were placed at the mercy of the SOVEREIGN against whom they had rebelled, and whom they sought to deprive of a portion of her dominions. It was well known, however, that the ex treme penalty of the law would not be car ried into execution. Such a consummation would be 83 repugnant to the feelings of our Most Gracious QUEEN, as it would be revoking to public opinion, which could not bear to see what had been regarded as a farce terminated in so deep a tra- gedy. It would indeed be a harrowing and heartrending spectacle to behold the death pangs on a scaffold of those misguided individuals whose follies and ab -urdities rendered them objects worthy rather of ridicule and contempt than of capital punishment. Nothing could tend more to revive the agitaion and disaffection in Ireland, which has happily sub sided, than the execu - ion of those wretched delinquents. Notwithstanding the crimes of which they had been convicted, there were redeeming points in their characters that deservedly Arai led the public sym pathy. Although their guilt was in the highest degree dangerous to society, and subversive of the best ioterests of the community, there was nothing of a mean or sordid description therein, nothing to awaken that thrill - of indignant horror and execra- tion that attends the la,t muments of the cold-blooded murderer who deliberately destroyed his fellow man. To consign to the scaffold men convicted of merely political offences would be, not to deter others from the commission of similar offences, but o excite the strongest detes!ation of, and opposition to, the sanguinary code wider which such barbarities could be perpetrated, and to induce a desire to abrogate it by any means, however illegal and uncon stitutional. But if it would be unwise and impolitic, as well as cruel and vindictive, to con-ign these guilty men to an ignominious death, the example would be per nicious which taught that there was to be unlimited impunity dgiuriene at r y e . outbreakscf o o u r r a s g u e c 1 n h e n c o rim i m top e o s society might be convul se d, p . t uh lo l as t re v i w .w o o u li ee l n d k ce ed o , p e ba r yn a d t ew san guinary I h a . property deteriorated, and many innocent lives sacrificed. Instead of the exten sive and well-regulated liberties enjoyed by British subjects, and the mild sway under which they a re now governed, all order would be trampled under foot by audacious demagogues, and we sheuld live in a region of political volcanoes. If the conse quences of high treason could be evaded in their cases, how could we ever punish minor delinquents ? Could their rank and station in society, which mate rially aggravated, be permitted to extenuate their crimes, or to exempt them from the punishment they had merited ? Tnese are questions that suggest themselves to every reflecting mind, and the solution is by no means easy to those who would desire to be hold justice tempered with mercy, but who would, at the same time, be careful that mercy did not so far Supersede justice as to beccme an injury to the com munity in general. Influenced by such considerations, the Executive — which in an early stage of the proceedings had assuaged the terrors of the friends and relatives of these unhappy men by giving an assurance that, whatever might be the result of the appeals then pending, their lives, at least, would be spared—came to the conclusion, after mature and anxious consideration, that all the require ments of justice would be satisfied by the commuta tion of the capital penalty to the milder, but still severe punishment, of perpetual banishment. We can scarcely feel surprised that a greater mitigation was not announced in the first instance. It is true ' that they had already suffered deeply—that, they had ] encountered the anxieties of trials, on the result of I which depended liberty and freedom on the one hand, or of an ignominious and painful death upon the scaffold on the other ; that some of them, at le. st, had forfeited station and effluence, and all that could make life desirable ; that they had sustained a year of lingering incarceration—a punishment much heavier to such persons than to the ordinary class of offenders, and perhaps more intol. rable than even death itself, if endured when their spirits were worked up to the highest pitch of enthusiasm. But if their chastise ment had been severe, their crimes demanded exem plary punishment ; neither was there anything to prevent the Government from again ameliorating their condition and remitting further punishment, when thought and reflection shall have convinced them of the heinousness of their offences, and opened their eyes to the true nature of the acts of which they had been guilty, and to the madness of the con duct that had reduced them from comfort and happi ness to humiliation and suffering. Indeed there is every reason to suppose that such further commuta tion would not be very long delayed, if they showed themselves deserving of the Royal clemency. Unfortunately, however, Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN, and , we fear, we may add some at least of his coadjutors, appear to he still actuated by the perverse and reck less spirit by which they were animated before their abortive attempt at insurrection had been suppres-ed, When they sti.)l supposed the expulsion of the British troops from Ireland and the establishment of a Pro visional Government practicable. It will be seen that the Honourable Member for the county of Limerick on Monday evening presented a petition from his late colleague to the House of Commons, in which that unhappy gentleman objected to the com mutation of his sentence and refused to exchange the punishment of death for that of transportation for life. Accounts from Ireland also state that Sir C. O'Loca- LEN, on behalf of the prisioners generally, announced on Saturday to the Under-Secretary for Ireland the de termination at which they had arrived, and denied the authority of the Government to send them from the country, except with their own consent, which they refused to give. This novel question must therefore, if the parties should persevere in their in sane resolution, be decided by the proper authorities. We shall not of course enter into any consideration of the legal point while it is yet sub judice, but will merely remark, that even if their views were well founded, and that they could not be expatriated in lieu of suffering the capital penalty assigned to their offence, their punishment would be still more severe, and trying, for they could be detained in perpetual imprisonment as criminals under sentence of death, who had been from time to time respited. Their absurd vanity will not, therefore, be gratified ; they will not be made martyrs, nor will the Government recal the conditional pardon they have announced ; hut if not transported the pri s-mers will be detained in a lingering and irksome confinement, far worse than banishment, in which, after a brief period, they could enjoy comparative freedom, and the society of those who would be pre pared to follow them even to another hemisphere, and to share the wretched fate which had been occasioned by their rash and hesdstrcng conduct. ATTEMPT AT INSURRECTION IN PARIS, Extraordinary intelligence has reached us from Paris this morning, by electric telegraph. The appeal to arms, made from the tribune of the Legislative Assembly by M. LEDRU RoLuN, and responded to with such enthusiasm by the Mountain, has already exercised its influence on the population. Barricades have again been attempted to be raised. Paris has been again declared in a state of siege. Blood is again expected to flow through the streets tn ' 6 e French capital, adding the horrors of civil war to the at._ oltions of the cholera. Such preparati,_ have, however, been made by the authorities, and sucn -.past military power is at present concentrated in their ha.-t 5 in the metropolis, that little hope of immediate success -emains with the insurgents. The outbreak is evidently precipitate. The public mind in England must have been wel prepared for this close to the Italian policy of the Odilon Barrot Administration. From accounts given at considerable length in our columns last evening, it must have been evident that a great amount of excitement existed among the people as to the conduct of the Government in regard to Rome, and especially in reference to the last violent discussion on that gutject between the Dreit and the Gauche of the National Assembly. The long harangues of M. LEDRU RoLLIN and of M. ODILON BARROT, together wish the abrupt but striking remarks of General BEDEAU and M. TRIERS were preceded by the Impeachment, signed with 142 signatures. They were followed by the " Declaration" of the Mountain ; by the "Declaration" of the Democratic-Socialist Journalists; by the Remonstrances of the 3d and 7th Legions of the National Guard; by the "Protest of the Schools," and by the appeal from the Electoral Typographical Committee of the National Assembly. These inflammatory speeches and placards have already brought forth the fruits they were intended to produce. Through the medium of the Red Republican jour nals the Mountain has issued the following ad dress : " TO THE FRENCH PEOPLE. " The people alone is sovereign. " The di legates of the people. whoever they may be, the President of the Republic, the Ministers, the repre sentatives themselves, only receive and hold their man date on condigion of obeying the Constitution. " When they viola'e it their mandate is cancelled. " Artcle 54 of the Cons itution says, "Ihe President of the Republic w voles over the defence of the state, but h , • cannot undertake any war without the consent of the Nations! Assembly.' " Article sof the preamble says, The French Re public respects foreign nationalities, as it will make its own respected; will undertake no war with a view to conquest, or ever employ its forces against the liberty of any people.' " The President of the Republic has declared war on Rome without the consent of the National Assembly. "He has, moreover, in defiance of the decree of the A‘setubly on the 7th of May, continued to cause French blood to be shed. " He hiss, in fine, employed the forces of France against the liberty of the Roman people. " This double violation of the Constitution is as clear as the sun at noonday. " The undersigned representatives of the people make an appeal to the consciences of their colleagues pro posing to them the impeachment of the Executive Go vernment. "The majority of the Assembly has rejected this pro position; it had already rendered itself, by its vote of the 11th of May, an accomplice in the affairs of Italy. " In this conjunction what has the minority to do? " After having protested at the tribune, it has only to remind the people, the National Guard, and the army, that Art. 110 places the Constitution under the guar dianship of all Frenchmen. People, the moment is critical. All these acts re veal a grand system of monarehieal conspiracy agoiast the Republic. The ill dissembled hatred of democracy on the banks of the Seine breaks out in all freedom on the banks of the Tiber. " In this struggle between people and kings tbe Go vernment has ranged itself on the side of the latter against the former. " Soldiers ! you reckon on wresting Italy from the Austrians; you are condemned to assist Austria in en slaving her. " At the moment when Prussia, Russia, and Austria threaten our eastern frontiers, it is wished to make you the auxiliaries of the enemies of France. " National Guards, you are the defenders of liberty and order. Liberty —order is the constitution; it is the Republic • 11 Let us all rally to the cry of Vive la Republique, vive la Constitution.'" Signed by the Members of the Mountain. Another manifesto of a more desperate character has been issued through the same organs; it runs as follows : u P b E l O ic Pi atd the Mi n i sters are theo eEp "The of without the pale of the Constitution. "The part of the Assembly, which by its rote of y e terday rendered itself an accomp l ice in their acts, are in n the bailie situation. " The National Guards are rising, the workships are closing; let cur brethren of the army rem.- mber that they are citistns, and that as such their first duty is to defend the Constitution. "Let the whole penp!e rise. " Vire la Republique " Vire li Constitution 1" Signed by the Committee of the Press, the Demo cratic Socialitits, the Schools, and the Delegates of the Luxembourg. The third is from the Democratic Association of the Friends of the Constitution : " rt. 110 of the Constitution confides it to the guardianship and patriotism of all Frenchmen. " Let, therefore, all tha friends of the Constitution; let all true citizens, remember the duties which are im posed on them by the fundamental law. Let a mani f.station, grand and calm as justice, solemn as the holy cause of nationalities, make evident the protest of the French people against the audacious acts of the Govern ment, and secure henceforth the triumph of the Consti tution. " Th 3 wh' le of France will unite in the generous efforts et' the people of Pari-." Fromthe information which has reached us through the Pars journals of yesterday and through other sources, it woul.l appear that the -itting or the As sembly was resumed on Tuesday evening, under more than ever exciting circumstance. The Chamber was strongly guarded by soldiers with ba3 um is fixed ; while artillervmen stood with lighted matches in the garden. The mob outside howled defiance. over the heads of the military But the Right of the Chamber remained firm and in at) imposing force. In the 13th Bureau M. PEAR asked M. ODILON BARROT," If the French army enter Rome, will the Government allow the Romans to select such form of government as they think fit ?" " Assuredly," re plied M. BARROT. " Then, why did you attack Rome ?" M. BARROT replied that it was his object to prevent that city from being occupied by the Austrians; he added, " Let us be of good faith. Do you wish to make war against Austria ; tell us frankly ?" M. MAUGUIN replied that would dis. cuss that when the Rthsian intervention debate came on. When the report was brought in from the Corn thittees, it, of course, proposed the rejection of the itnpeachmeat. Then the Montagne demanded all the documents to be produced which related to the Ro man expedition ; and, after a stormy debate, the PRESIDENT said, " I now put the conclusion of the Committee to the vote.—(Loud exclatnations on the Left.) The division will be proceeded to."—(Re newed exclamations, amidst which could be re peatedly heard the phrase, " C'est infatne !") The Left, as before, abstained from voting ; the following was the result : • Ntt' tnler of voters ... 385 Absolute majority ... . . ... 193 Ayes.— ... —. 377 Nues ... ... ... 8 Maj. rity ... --369 In consequence, the conclusions of the committee were declared to be adopted, and the proposition to impeach the Ministers was not taken into considera tion. The Assembly then, in considerable agitation, ad journed at a quarter to ten to this morning. Another account of the sitting say—" M. TRIERS took a conspicuous part in the debate ' and met M. LEDRU ROLLIN foot to foot, telling him that the cause at stake was between order and demagoguism, and that he would defend the cause of order to the last. M. LEDRU ROLLIN retorted by saying that the words of N. TRIERS were identical with those of the Emperor of RUSSIA." The Nati2nal announces that the members of the ex-Constitue'nt having been prevented from meeting yesterday in the Palais National by the Minister of Public Works, resolved to meet elsewhere, but the place of rendezvous is not mentioned. Numerous arrests have been made. In the course of the debate on Tuesday night M. DB TOCQUEVILIE presented two telegraphic dis patches from Rome, of the 5 -h and 6th, for the sake of showing that the unfortunate rumours given by M LEDRU ROLLIN the day before were utterly ground less. These dispatches are as follows : ‘• Head.quartero, Villa Santucci, June 5, Seven, P m. " The opening of the trenches took place this evening at six o'clock. At five o'clock in the morning two be sieging batteries opened their fire. The enemy occupied by a serious diversion which I had ordered on the side of the Villas Corsini and Valentini, did not fire a single shot on our workmen. Duni , g the day its fire on this side was well kept up, but without causing us any loss The 53d Regiment of the line, which landed three du3s since, arrivEd here yesterday, and immediately took part in the service. The Pont Molle is entirely re established, and carriag. s can pass over it. In the• mines 150 kilogrammes of powder were found prepared to blow it up." " June 6, half-past three AM. " The night has passed off tranquilly; the works at the trenches are carried on with activity. Last night new bay teries were cons meted. Unceasing exe►tions are heiog made to consolidate the detain* of San Pancrazio and the Villas Corsina and Val• ntini." The Censtitutionneltaunts M. LEDRU ROLLIN with showing at the last moment the white feather—not of the Bourbons, however : " M. Ledru Rollin, who the day before appeared as the proud tribune, the herald of a warlike demagoguism. who, shaking his mantle, cried war on the Assembly— this knight of the Red Republic showed last evening that he did not forget his brief bag, and he set about explaining, modifying, and reducing to nothing his short and categorical challenge of the previous evening, twice thing at the Government —aye, explained all this away with the pacific commentary of a constitutional law) er. Oh ! it was not an appeal to arms that he uttered, it was a mere hypotheis—a constitutional doc trine to meet extreme cases. Oh thou superb tri bune of the eve, how humiliated dust thou not appear te-day. Your rash provocations were very criminal; but bad as they were, they will overwhelm ou less than your providence of a runaway lawyer! You play with the fire, and have such tear of being burned ! You throw a whole population into alarm You disturb .--testry and commerce, and trouble honest men—you make an ap pea l to t h e troops — you sen d em i ssar i es i nto the workships o oblige the men to turn out. Your effi cers and sub officers furbish their arms and sound the charge—they expnie the mselves to dal Bee ier violate the law, hopin g to escape from ;heir crime • through means of yours; and when all is ready for war, when the government tells you its measures are taken, you tremble, you disband your forces, and inAteed of or) ing to cowe to the tribune, saying peace, peace. Get away, your measure is token, your part is pia) ed. You know what are the sentiments of Conservatives towards you; and you may esteem yourself happy if demagogues do not hence!orward regard you witL pity You have lost, if we mistake not, the esteem of the Vraie Repub lique. W hat a fall 1 factious a. 41 ridieulou,, either would be bad enough. but both together is too much." This terrible paragraph, say some of the commen tators, is from M. TIIIERS, and no mistake ! Later intelligence of the prcatedings of the Red Republican insurgents in Paris afford no particulars. Thou ands of troops were in the streets. The people had been fired on; .. One .. man, at the least, being killed, and several persons in an immense procession wounded. Many dispersed at the first discharge of musketry, calling Aux armes ! and declaring they would take to the barricddts. All the shops were closed and business entirely stopped. One of the accounts of the movement gives thin explanation of its rise he determination of the Assembly to support the cause of the POPE and to put down the Roman Republic, has rendered the Red Republicans furious, and the opportunity is s e iz e d upon to make a manifestation in favour of the Roman Republic, and at the same time against the Govern ment and the Legislative Assembly. Notice was accordingly inserted in the Reforme and the other organs of the Red Republicans, calling upon the National Guards, the students of the different schools, a..d the workmen, to meet this morning without arms, at the Chateau d'Eau, in the B, ulevard Bonne Nouvelle, in order to go in procession to the Legisla tive Assembly, to present a protest against the vote come to yesterday, and a petiti on to t h e e ff ect t h at the French Republic should recognise that of Rome. The result has been like that which followed the movement of the sympathisers with Poland in the May of 1848. The procession of insurgents was estimated at some 25,000 persons, including 12,000 National Guards, and led by M. ETIENNE ARAGO, accompanied by several Members of the Mountain, and two Colonels of the National Guards. About noon the military were turned out of barracks to the number of no less than 60,000 or 70,000 men. When the procession arrived at the end of the Rue de la Paix, they were met by a large body of troops, both cavalry and infantry, headed by General CHAN. GARNIER, the Prefect of Police, and a numerous staff. General CHANGARNIER immediately summoned those forming the procession to disperse, and on there appearing to be a slight hesitation, the body was broken by the troops, one party withdrawing by the small streets leading down from the Boulevard, and the rest towards the Madeleine. In an instant the Boulevards were cleared by large bodies of cavalry, and the demonstration ended. Some accidents occurred whilst the cavalry was pro ceeding down the Boulevards;_ one dragoon being hurt by a fall, a n d a N a ti ona l Guard having had his face cut by a sabre. M. LACROSSE, the Minister of Public Works was nearly torn to pieces by the mob, near the Chateau d'Eau. His life was preserved by the interposition of M. ETIENNE ARAGO and M• GENT. The reception of General CHANGARNIER is described as having been most enthusiastic, the people crying out Vive Changarnier ! Vive l'Ordre! Vive l'Ordre surtout! A bas les Rouges I Never once cheering the Republique Democratic et Sociale, but .ve la shouting the most frequently Vive la Republique! Vz Constitution! Among the other ord e rs for arrest was one for the arrest of Colonel GuiriAßD. who endeavoured to hand over the cannon of the National Guard to the Red Republicans. n spire of e all t that org n o s a , n o b e e N s a a i d t i t n o a t G h e u c a o r d n r in n r y vastby the i numbers,ar a e n s d tr s o 3 n rn gl p y at e h p i p ze ose se d c t r o etly th , e if po n l o ic t y o o ve f rt t i ll y e Ministers, , in the la•e movement.

The Central Power has just issued a procla mation, from which we extract the following pas s ges " TO THE PEOPLE OF B ADEN. " The troops required to crush the insurrection, which ie the Grand Duchy has broken out against the Consti tutional Govsminent and the Central Power, are ready , o,enter the Grand Duct yof Baden. Those rigorous measures which always accompany the presence of an armed repr‘-ssive force shall be proclaimed and executed without scruple by the authorities. " Inhabitants o' Baden ! I shall do my duty, that is, to say—l shall et deavour to give effect to the law. You cannot have forgotten that it is not the will of the majority, legally expressed, but the violence committed by some masses of armed mn, which has brought about the deplorable situatien in which the Grand Duchy of Baden ar.d the Palatinate of the Rhine are placed. Your hap piness depends upon the prevention of the ruin with which you are threatened : your honour exacts that your country, hitherto so free, so prosperous, should not continue to nresunt to the rest of Germany the image of disorder. The origin of the insurrection and the objects of the chiefs do not spring from any evident causes. No natienal rights, no Mu sts of the country were tht.ea rened in the duchy of Baden. The movement required the false pretext of maintaining the Constitution of the empire, that it might Int be regarded, even by the most blind, as criminal, and without rational object. But, in stead of favouring the Constitution of the empire, this insurrection is one of the chief obstacles which, to the 4rest regret of all true patriots, is opposed to a change in Germany which is worthy of the German people. "People of Baden! I doubt not that although you may be imposed upon it will nut be possible for any length of time to repress the conscience of the people. All Germany expr cts from you a return to the virtues of moderation, anti respect for the law, without which no progress is possible, and we cannot receive any fruits from the efforts and sacrifices of the past year. The German army which enters on your territory will secure the protection of the empire, and will restore the legal authority of your good Prince, as well as the bent fits of peace and of real liberty. I conjure you to favour this army in its efforts to secure these objects; unite your forces to it. and drive trom y our country the shame and disasters of a civil war. " The Archduke JOHN. "The President of the Ministry of the Empire. "Frankfort„June 10." " WITTGENsTEIN." On the 10th troops left Frankfort for Odearbeld. STUTGARDT. The Provisional Central Po arer has given orders for the arrest of the members of the Regency of S'utgardt. The Chamber of the Deputies of Wirtumberg has referred to a Committee a motion, to the effect that it is expedient to recognize as legal the German Na tional Assembly, as at present constituted. AUSTRIA. Accounts from Vienna are to the Bth inclusively. On the 7th the city witnessed the grand celebra tion of Corpus Christi, in the pageants of which the young EMPEROR was well received by the population. lEN NA, JUN 6.—The future destination of Baron Von Welden appears to be not Vienna, but Venice, after he shall have recovered from his present illness. The Gratz Zeitung says—" When Field-Marshal Baron Von Welden received the intelligence of the fall of then he exclaimed, I wash my hands from this matter; it is as I predicted beforehand." Tae garri son of Ofen is said to have remained there contrary to his desire, and by the will of the Minister of War. In reply to these assertions, which appear to im pute the catastrophe to the ex-Minister of War, a semi-official declaration has been issued, wherein it is stated that the leaving of a garrison at °fen does not lie within the provinces of the Minister of War, but within that of the Commander-in-Chief. The docu ment further sa3s that Oten would have held out longer had there not been treachery within walls. The Russians have already broken up their camp at Sanheide, near Presburg. About 10,000 men, with 18 batteries, have gone to the island of Schutt. One battalion alone remained behind, and will for the present mount guard at Presburg. One division of the Russian corps darmee, with 24 18 pounders, entered Kyrnau on the 31st, while other divisions occupied the surrounding villages. The artillery travelled further, and took a position at CzifTer. The Austrian corps ((armee, standing on this side of the Waag, is ail concentrating at the Danube, for the purpose of advancing against Pesth. On the 4th one of the commandants of Leopold stadt, Baron Mednianski, and a colonel of artillery of this fortress, were sentenced to death by hanging. Time execution took place at Presburg on the follow ing day. Numbers of wounded continue to arrive at Vienna from Presburg ; on the 6th the steamers brought no less than 400 men. They were all taken to the hospital in the Angarten. The cholera has not 3et disappeared, or, rather, it has re-appeared with renewed virulence. Since the 4th 17 cases of cholera have occurred-3 in Leopol stadt, 5 in Rastendorf and Sechshans, and 9 in the suburb of Landstrasse, which is very severely visited by it. Four of the cases have already proved fatal. PRUSSIA. News from Berlin dates up to the 10th inclusively. Prussia still maintained, strongly and resolutely, her intermediate position between the parties con tending about the great question of German unity. Reports from Schlesv►ig state that the British steaui'r Hecate was fired at and hulled by a Schles wig-Holstein battery in the Belt. This was pro- bably the result of error--at least the Schleswigers will say so. There has been another skirmish at Diippel, fol lowed by a wasteful expenditure of life. It is really time that this detestable and useless war should be terminated by peremptory interference. RUSsIA. A wide-spread conspiracy is said to have been dis covered at St. Petersburgh, having ramifications es pecially in the west at Wilna, Grodno, Minsk, Maj ile w, and Witepsk. The Aix-la-Chapelle Gazette states that there have in consequence been numerous arrests. The existing duties, it is said, on the principal ar ticles of Russian industry are about to be moderated by a new tariff of customs preparing by Privy- Councillor TENGOBOSKI. ITALY. The latest accounts from the seat of war in Central Italy state that OUDINOT was still acting on the offensive. Letters from Ancona declare that Rome was yet being bombarded, and that doubts were beginning to be entertained as to the possibility of GARIBALDI and his followers holding out much longer. The King of NAPLES is said to have once more crossed the Neapolitan frontiers. The Gazette of Genoa, of the Bth, says, that the French cavalry greatly contributed to drive back the legion of GA RIBALDI ar.d MONARA, in their endeavour to retake Null:Ili at the point of the bayonet. Tne legion suffered greatly. The Roman cavalry, a very small force, is nearly destroyed. The Roman Moniteur, of the 3d, contains a reso lution of the Assembly declaring itself en permanence. It also publishes a proclamation of the Committee of Barricades, calling on the people to defend the barri cades. " Fierceness (says the Committee) is a law and the duty of nature. 20,000 bullets or bombs are insufficient to burn Rome or to bury liberty." The citizen MAI R, formerly prefect of Ferrara, is appointed to the Ministry of the Interior, and has ordered the sacrament to be displayed in all the churches of Rome during the attack.

There was a steady matket for Cotton at Liverpool yesterday, at full rates. The sales were estimated at 7 000 bales, of which speculators and exporters took 2,000 bales.—Reil*ay Shares were in moderate request, and prices were a shade better. The six weeks' average price of Wheat is 455. Id. per quarter, end the quantity sold in the provincial markets. which regulate the duties, has been 80.090 quarters. The Amsterdam Bourse on the 12th inatatit was rather better. The Two and•a Half per Cent. Dutch Steck realised 49 3 16 to 494. At Frankfort on the 11 instant very little business was doing. In addition to the very promising accounts received in town from California, there is verbal cerroboratien afforded by Mr. Suwerkrop, a highly intel ligent gentleman, who was Danish Consul at the Sandwich Islands, and is now in London. This gentleman has personally visited the " diggins," and speaks in the highest Lei ins of the prospects of the country, not alone in reference to metallic riches, but likewise in respect of agricultural cat abilities. The view from the higher range of hills is described as being extremely beatritul, and the soil as very rich. Oo one point only dues Mr. Suwerkrop seem to express a doubt, viz., as to the eligibility of the site of San Francisco. Originally the object of placing it where it stands was to have a land communication with Monterey, but this advantage appears to be counter balanced by the lees convenient access which shipping have, compared with the opposite entrance of the bay. Once iu this expansive water, the navigation presents but little difficulty, and for some distance up the Sacramento sea-going vessels of moderate tonnage may be takt n. Mr. Suwerkrop has a steamer building of four hundred tons, which he will tmploy in California, and at no distant day there will be a railroad at least part of the distanct to th, United States, tor rail-road making in America is a verb diff. rent affair to our costly s) stem. Thu land is to be had tor nothing, the timher is a substitute for iron. and the labour is the chief desideratum. That the sub j ct already t xcites attention we may learn from the fol luaing statement in an American journal:— "The propriety and expediency of constructing a rail road across the American continent, to connect the Mississippi with the Pacific Ocean, is rapidly growing in public favour in the western and south-western states. So iaveurebiy impressed are the citizens or ttio,e regions with the project, its feasibility and advantageousness, that the people of Arkansas, in convention assembled, have called a convention of people on the 4th of July next, at Memphis, to take the subject into consideration. In accordance with the invitation, the Governor of South Carolina has requested the attend ance of one hundred and twenty distiuguished citizens of that state at the convention, and we have no doubt that other states will fellow the example. The time is fast approaching when such a work as this must be con structed, but, in the meantime, it will be well to finish other works of a similar character now commenced." From all the information we have collected we have no hesitation in affirming that California will for some time offer a great field to the hardy and industrious, as well as to the mere experienced merchant, but that cau tion in all respects will be needful. The important inreltigence from Paris, suggestive too, as it undoubtedly is, of future difficulties and of great uncertainty, has not affected the English Stock Mat ket, confidence growing daily stronger that this country will not interfere in foreign affairs, but quietly look on. Consuls with the dividend have been 92* to i e and without 90i to 91, the contango therefore being still * per cent. Bank Stock has been steady at 194:1.

Mr. Sergeant JONES appeared for the plaintiff, and said that this action was b roug ht b y t h e p l a i nt iff who an infant, by her mother, who is her next friend. Th e nlaintiff is a widow, with five children, carrying on bug° ress in Holborn-buildings, as a laundress, and defer' darts, Messrs. Hazeltine and Mates, are coach-builde rs and contractors to several railways. The claim for damages was for injuries s u s ta i ne d by t h e plaintiff , child, who is about ten years of age, and who had bee n driven over through the reckless and careless conduct of a man named Lawrence, who had been in th e service of the defendants. He, the Learned Couns el, considered that it would be impossible to atm' bute this to accident, for Lawrence treated t he matter with the greatest indifference. The injury w as inflicted on the 28th of October last, and the unfold' nate child had been an in-patient of King's College Hospital for seven months, and was still au out-patient' and it is feared that the injury sustained is of a pert"; rent character. The defendant had suff e red judgme nt to go by default, thereby admitting the misconduct of their servant. and their own liability, and had offered 2/. 10s., saying that was not as a compensation for the injury, for it was clearly an action to put cost in the et' torney's pocket, but to stay proceedings. Charles Nash stated that he is a porter in Eagle-street' Red Lion-square, and on the day in question he %yea in Bed Lion -street, near to Holborn, and saw the plata t h l . and two other children when Lawrence drove up at t" rate of about six miles an hour, and driving close up to the curb where the children. were walking on the pavement, and were at the corner preparing to cross, when th e plain iff was jammi d in between the cart and the lamp-post, and tell down. Witness called to the man: Who said it was nothing, there was no harm done, and drove on. Witness saw a severe gash on the child' ° legs and took her t o t h e h osp i ta l. There wea plenty of room for Lawrence to have driven some feet from the post; there was nothing in the way to interfere. Mr. BUDDLE6TottE cross- examii.ed the wi'n ess , but did not elicit anything favourable to defendant's ease. Mrs. Ann Hobbs gave curinborative evidence. Mr. l'artiidg- , surgeon at King's College Hospitals prove o that when the plaintiff aas itikin to the hospital he filind boil) Loris of the Jig broken off near the knee cap, and hi r tits- was in danger for some weeks; in conse (pence, of the Bev, rity (.0 the injury it was difficult to keep the parts higettier. She was about eight months an in patient. arid is lowan out- patient, and it is feared that it wilt y et be some months beliire she will be discha r g e° , and she must ire vitally be lame f o r the. The girl general state of health was good. Mr. Salter, o was house surgeon at the hospitals corroborated this evidence. Miss Eliza Miller, schoolmistress at St. Georges Bloomsbury Infant Scho , 1, proved that the plaintiff wes t a monitor 01 the school, and being a child of great natural natural ability, s o , muc h s) that had she remained i nt " scht of she would have had compensation. By Mr. HUDDLESTONE—She would have bend more calculated tor teacher or companion than for her work. Mr. HUDDLESTONE addressed the Court for the jurl and complained that it should have been stated that th e l deft ndants had added ins u lt to injury by offering s ue s a trifling sum, On the ground that it was an attorner, action, without their being the slightest evidence on eas t point. H e urge d th a t a l t h oug h t h e d e f en dants mig ht be legally bound to make compensation for the injurfs yet that ;hey ought not also to be liabl e fo r a ny bet rt i less conduct, if it could be proved; but defendants Pa. discharged him. There was anothe r c i rcums tance th at fortunately the accident had not been of such a natu re as not to prevent In r hereafter following the bent of be' ,. mind, and her health had not been injured. The UNDER SHERIFF summed up, and said tha t the defendants were clearly liable for the acts of their servant, hut he thought that the statement made by . tt i e s Learned Sergeant was calculated to influeece the n 311 1., of the jury; and as it was not proved in evidenc e s: ought not to have been stated. The injury had und°tw ed edly been very severe, and the damages must be ease s : £o on the extent of those injuries, and for a ny damag e her future prospects in life. The jury gave a verdict for 1001. CRIMINAL COURT—( THIS DA Y.) OLD CUfil( (Before the Lord Chief JUstiCe 7 WILDE, Mr. Justine PATTESON. and Mr. Baron lioLvE.) SHOWING AT HER MAJESTY.
