This Company being now completely registered, the Directors take the earliest opportunity of laying before the Shareholders a statement of its progress and prospects. It may be confidently asserted that no Company was ever brought before the public with equal prospect of speedy and successful results. The prompt assistance afforded by the Shareholders to the Direc tors, and the perfect confidence in the management displayed by them, have enabled the Directors to take such steps as must ensure an enormous dividend within a few months. Sir Henry Huntley, the resident Director in California, has been in that country five months, and the course adopted by the Directors for carrs ing out this Clt...prig. results from the experience obtained by ht.. aging that period. The instructions given to Sir Henry Hunt ey were, in effect, that he should make every possible inquiry relative to the state of the country. the tenure of land, the com parative merit: of the different quartz veins in the several districts of California, and after mature deliberation to advise the Directors as to their best course of proceeding, and to take such measures as would enable them to carry out his views as speedily as possible. Following these instructions, he has secured for the benefit of the Company, sufficient lands for all mining purposes ; but he is clearly of opinion, that for the present, at least, it is not desirable to under take mining operations, but to crush and amalgamate quartz to be supplied by those who are possessed of mines, and have raised the quartz. With the assistance of some gentlemen of great experience in geology and mining matters, he has inspected and tested a great variety of veins in the Mariposa, Nevada, Grass Valley, and other districts, and has comp to the conclusion, upon sound reasons, that the vicinity of Grass Valley and Nevada City, is that which affords the greatest advantages for car rying on our enterprise. Ile has, therefore, entered into an agree ment with some An erican gentlemen, who have formed a company, and have opened, and, to a considerable extent, worked a vein of quartz, di, tant about three miles from Grass:Valley and Nevada City, and about thirty miles from Sacramento City, to crush and amalgamate the quartz to be raised from the mine opened by them. By means of machinery, he has already cm hed and amalgamated considerable quantities of the quartz sup plied him from this mine; and the rtsuit of his operations has been to satisfy himself that the vein is of a full average richness, and that the locality offers many important advantages in the way of water, fuel, means of transit , &c., &c. He has, there fore, entered into a formal agreement with that Company, which, in a few words, amounts to this: he Is to be supplied by them with as much quartz as his machinery shall be found capable of crushing; the quarts is to be deposited at the mills free of expense; he is to crush and amalgamate it at his own expense, and the gad produced is to be divided equally between the owners of the vein and our Company. Formal and legal agreements for carrying out the above arrangement fairly and honestly, and without any copartnership, have been entered into. Steam-engines and machinery estimated to crush about thirty tons of quartz a day, with fends sufficient for putting it in motion, have been placed under the control of Sir Henry Huntley ; and, unless some unexpected delay has arisen, the machinery i s now actually at work, and a return will be made about Christmas next. Far the satisfaction of the existing shareholders of this Company, and without wishing, in any manner, to deteriorate from the merits of other Companies, the Directors a re desirous of calling attention to some of the more prominent advantages possessed by this Com pany over others now in the field. Shareholders in other Companies must mainly rely upm reports sent over by persons interested in selling the mine; we rely upon the reports of our own resident Director and his practical assistants on the spot, whose only interest is to give us facts. The Directors of other pan Comies generally base the estimate of the value of their mine upon calculations founded on experiments upon a few pieces of specimen quartz, sent over to this country for the express purpose of advertising the commodity offered for sale to the British public ; we found our calculations upon experiments tried, during several weeks, on quartz raised from the mine, and crushed and amalgamated by our own Superintendent, and with our own machinery and apparatus. Other Companies propose to incur the expense and risk of carrying out miniug operations apon their vein, before the quartz arrives at their mill, and, should their labours prove successful, they must then pay out of their profits large per-centages for obtaining their leases, and large royal ties to their lessors ; whereas we have secured as much quartz as our machinery is capable of crushing, the title to which is as secure as that of any other company, unfettered by any per-centage or royalty. The half of the produce to be p aid b y this Company to the parties who supply us, free of expense, with the quartz, being in fact merely equivalent to the dividend upon the outlay of capital ex pended in raising the quartz, and lodging it at the mill. All the new companies, unlike this, must be a considerable time before their arrangements and machinery can be ready for carrying out their schemes—this Company alone is actually at work. The paid-up capital of the Company will not exceed 20,0001. An elm ist certain estimate of the produce of our machinery can be formed, and, from the calculations made, the Directors confidently anticipate being able even at the most moderate estimate, to afford a dividend of 200 per cent., at the least, within the next twelve months. According to the data furnished to us, the quartz which we are now working yields upon an average 4d. per pound, or 11. 17s. 4d. per cwt., or 371. Os. Bd. per ton ; and, as we can crush and amalgamate at least 20 tons per diem, that would amount to 7461. 13e. 4d., or 3731. 65. Bd. per diem as the share of this Company, By the peculiar arrangements this Company has made, based upon praetic.4l,expertenee. th_e_econotay iyorkifkluceS 314 Z, Silltilkas to render the cu an tulay `lllloatitri In case dieumstaiices should induce, th Directors to al t lflyi; system tow adopted, and lead them to undertake mining operatiOns of their own, arrangements have teen made securing four distinct sites, most carefully selected for their eligibility for mining pur poses, and Sir Henry Huntley has on the spot Cornish miners who went out with him, and who have voluntarily retendered him their services. The gentlemen who formed the Provisional Committee of this Company, have added to their number several gentlemen possessing the acquaintance and entire confidence of a very large body of Shareholders in the provincial districts. To add such men to the Dire dory was due to those Shareholders who have in fac be t eken lished and nobly support ed this Company. Measures will for further augmenting the Directory, and a Special General Meet ing of the Shareholders will be convened for the middle of January. In conclusion, the Directors beg to offer heirs best thanks to the Shareholders for the uniform support they have eceived, and they pledge tnemselves that the affairs of this Comaany shall be con ducted with the most rigid economy, and with the sole view of for warding the interest of the Shareholders. The Directors beg to call the attention of Shareholders particularly to the fact that, from the system adopted by this Company, it can not be affected by the question now agitated between the holders of leases and Colonel Fremont or his agents. The district selected for the operations of this Company is far removed from the tract claimed by Colonel Fremont. The difficulty arising out of the many points now raised relative to the tenure of land under leases, had been long known to and was maturely considered by t hose having the control of the affairs of this Company, and was one of the reasons which in duced them to parsue for the present the course they have, and not to incur certain heavy expenses with doubtful results. The Directors trust that Shareholders will approve of the prudence of the course they have adopted. Prospectuses may be had upon application at the offices of the Company. PRESERVED SOUPS, ace.

THE DETERMINED ATTACK ON LOUIS NAPOLEON.—?here is no question but that a crisis is now near at hand, and that one of three important parties will shortly be settled as dominant in France—the Red Republicans, the Legitima tists, or the friends of the present Government. The attacks made in the Assembly on the Government of Louis Napoleon have been all but successful, and yet have signally failed ; but the last and worst attack was when the majority sought, by a Bill which has been sleeping nearly two years, to enpower the Assembly to impeach the President, the Ministry, and whoever else should favour the re election of Louis Napoleon. While, however, the French people are at loggerheads about clothing the Assembly or the Government with power, we on this side of the Channel are thinking about clothing ourselves ; and the be=t opportunity in the world presents itself, for the unique stock of Messrs.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS; TIMES.—The French Revolution has once more re sumed its eccentric and irresistible course; and this in effectual compromise between the institutions of a Democratic Republic and the representative of Imperial Government is already overthrown. The step just taken by Louis Napoleon Bonaparte, whatever may be it s ulterior consequences, at- once overleaps the barrier between law and revolution. • The future government of the country, and even the existence of its constituted authorities, rest altogether on the fortune of the moment and the fidelity of the army. The electric spark which transmitted to us yesterday morning the intelligence of events not yet consummated upon the theatre of action, is not more swift than their changes; and even at the hour at which we write we are still in ignorance of the forces brought to bear'on this revolution and of the re sistance it may have to encounter in the nation. This much is, however, already certain, that Louis Napoleon bad burst the legal conditions of his power, that the laws and limitations by w hi c h h e h el d the highest office in the State are either annihilated by this blow or turned against himself, as the chief enemy of the constitution, and that he stands, either amenable, by failure, to the supreme judicature of the country, or becomes by suc cess the popular candidate for unlimited personal power. There is no other alteruatl4, and the events of yester day must either .p4sigrMince, for the present, to a Bonapartist dictatorihip, or send Louis Bonaparte to Vincennes. The Government, however, seems prepared to make its act decisive ,and complete. The military chief of the Assembly, Generals Changarnier, Cavaignac, Lamoriciere, and Charras, are reported to have been arrested at the outset of the revolution. and transferred to the fortress in which they would willingly have im mured Louis Napoleon himself; and after the part which M. Thiers has played for the last few years in the revo lutions of 'France, it will excite no regret to learn that he too has been committed - to this new Bastile. This measure was doubtless taken to prevent the effect which might have been produced by an appeal from these leaders to the army or the members of the Assem bly, and to strike terror into those who might otherwise have turned their arms against the President, or rallied the scattered forces of the Assembly. We learn fur ther, that upon the closing of the Legislature a consi derable body of members, belonging chiefly to the Le gitimist party, assembled at the adjoining Mairie , where they were surrounded by troop s , an d conveyed' under arrest to the neighbouring barracks. A more sweeping extinction of legislative authority, and a more utter con tempt for the representatives of a great people, has not been witnessed since the dissolutio n of the Long Parlia ment of the expulsion of the Council of 500 from the Orangery of St. Cloud. From the first announcement of the President's intention to demand the abrogation of the Electoral Law, accompanied by the summary dismissal of the Faucher Cabinet, and followed by the appointment of so significant a Minister as General St. Arnaud with his most insignificant colleagues, we have anticipated the occurrence of events and the re newal of adventures which would probably change the provisional condition of France. These apprehensions have been greatly increased by the factious conduct of the Assembly, by the unprincipled coalitions formed between the President's personal enemies and his Re publican opponents, and by the attitude assumed by the Government under the increasing encouragement of the populace of Paris. The very last time we had occasion to discuss the condition of France we observed, " That if the law itself affords no relief to a nation in such a predicament, the course of events will be arrested by some violent suspension of the law, that is, by a revolu tion;" and we added that, "if such a measure be dic tated by an imperative necessity, it would claim an in demnity from the suffrages of the nation." That sentence, published 48 hours before the event, appears accurately to describe the present emergency; for, whether any such " imperative necessity" existed or not; it had be come evident that the impatience of the executive power was increased by the cabals of its Parliamentary anta gonists, and inflamed by the favour of the people. But, though we have long deplored the factious spirit of the Assembly, and the ascendancy almost involuntarily con ceded in that body to the most mischievous of its members, the circumstances at present known to us are not such as to account for and justify a coup d'itat which tramples underfoot the whole legal system of the country. The constitution of 1848, however, contained from the first the germ of such a revolution; for it bad placed the highest political authority in the Assembly, while it conferred upon an independent executive Go vernment, stimulated by perpetual rivalry and frequent collision, the physical and political means of destroying an obstacle it pould not otherwise remove. The history of, the aeLtheei pat.3.lm,bastkAlse history of this 'eon. mat. autras the time'Wrew near at which the legal powers of the .contending parties were to expire the danger of an explosion became imminent. We conclude from the political elements which have alone sur vived the protracted convulsions of France—the throne being overturned, the aristocracy destroyed, the country centralized, and the army paramount—that the French people must either be governed by a dicta torial power not seriously controlled by any representa tive Assembly, or by an Assembly disposing obsoletely of the executive authority; and an imperial despotism is at least preferable to anarchy or to the government of a Committee of Public Safety. The measures of the Government have been taken with that boldness which tells most in revolutions. The military authorities had for some days past held the army in immediate prepara tion and on the verge of action. General Perrot, the Commandant of the National Guard of Paris, had just been removed in consequence of an attempt to place on his staff a man obnoxious to himself, and known by the violence he had displayed on former occasions. The command of the civic troops was thereupon transferred to M. de Turgot, late Minister of Foreign Affairs, whose presence in that post m i g h t at least have the ffect of paralyzing the hostile act i v i ty of the 'legions. M. de Morny, well known as a mem b er of what was, terme d the progressive party und er M . Gui i st ' s adm i n i strat i on , and nearly connected with Louis Napoleon by blood, is introduced into the Cabinet as Minister of the Inte rior, and M. Fould has resumed his place as Minister of Finance. But the issue of the crisis depends altogether on the army, and the army on General from regular deference chiefs, t o any especially commands as it has St. Arnaud. There i s every reason to believe that t h e army will act in p er f ect unison, and without the slightest its de prived of the ablest of its other leaders. Tho French people are so apt to obey a given impulse in any direc tion, that we are surprised to find this revolution ac complished thus far without any serious resistance, and hailed, as usual, by popular acclamation. The Assem bly, which was so ardently discussing but yesterday the measures to be taken for its defence and the rights of Parliamentary resistance, was deserted by public opinion before it was assailed by the Executive Power; and the catastrophe at which it has now arrived is no more than the result of the destructive and contemptible line of policy adopted by the majority at the commencement of the year now hurrying to its close. But the Assembly has done more than annihilate its own influence and authority. It has injured and disgraced the cause of constitutional and representative government in France. It has put the seal of doom on that, experi ment of representative government which has been tried in France with so many vicissitudes and so little success for upwards of 60 years; and it has left the land it professed to rule to be the spoil of these myrmi dons of military power. Tho appeal made by Louis Na poleon to universal suffrage can only be interpreted to mean an appeal to the people in his own favour, and no reliance will be placed on the existence of Chambers depending on his pleasure, when the National Assembly of the Republic has just been overthrown by his will. It is not improbable, indeed, that this change will be ac cepted by a people attached to no traditions of the past, despising the present, and incredulous of the future. But it will be accepted, if it be so accepted, without genuine enthusiasm or confidence. If the entire party once known 'as that of the Conservative majority be annihilated by this revolution, including as it does what ever has hitherto been moat eminent in the councils or the armies of France, it is not the less certain that the revolutionary and republican elements to which Louis Napoleon is most strongly opposed still exist in full organization and vigour. They may be stunned by this blow; they will be coerced by th e army , and prosecuted by th laws; bu in . which t they consist of men no t likely to desist from a cantest they have now but one opponent, even though that opponent be desig nated by universal suffrage. The fortunes of Louis Napoleon are therefore by no means decided by the occurrences'of yesterday; for his Government, if esta blished, enters upon a new and more violent field of con flict, to which it is impossible to assign a limit or any certain.object. The step now irretrievably tak en opens revolutionary annals a new period in the of Europe, of the most momentous Interest to the cause of the world; of civilization and the peace but, whatever may be the results of these event s, it is but too certain that the true interests of e freedom and the nobler prin ciples of constitutional government are already sacrified. The humiliation of February, 1848, is avenged by the humiliation of December, 1851; and France is d oome d onto more to descend, step by step, from the horrors and bondage folly of popular revolution to f the sterno mili tary rule. lIERALD.—If yesterday we had to remark on the state of uncertainty in which we were left by the results so admirable and wonderful in some respects of the working of the submarine and electric telegraphs—in reference to the death of a celebrated individual—how shall we express to-day the state of surprise and amaze ment into which we have been thrown by intelligence which concerns, not merely the interest and welfare of and a nation—int e lli gen ce which may have a positive direct influence on the greater portion of Europe. For the last month, indeed, during which the leaders of par ties j inthe French Chamber have exhibited all the worst vices of intriguers and plotters under the lower Empire —during which time we have seen them false and faith less to every priuoiple, and working only for paltry per- sonal interests, without any touch of patriotism or love of country—for the last month or more, we say, every observing man must have remarked that the Assembly was fast falling into contempt, and that a people prover bially grateful and attached to champions of the po pular cause were wont to speak of the proceedings of the Legislature without respect, if not with feel ings of dissatisfaction, and almost, indeed, of deri sion and contempt. But though this was known to be the feeling among the majority of the Parisian com munity, high and low—and to be the universal feeling of the people i❑ the country parts of France—yet the people of this happy country, accustomed to legality, precedent, and routine, were not yet prepared for ex treme measures—and generally considered that this old year would pass over without any sudden or startling changes. This appeared the more probable, as Paris was, even so late as on Sunday, tranquil—as the funds were steady—as the Chamber met on Monday as usual —and as the election of a representative for the metro polis, in the place of General Ilagnan, quietly proceeded and terminated in the midst of a profound calm and tranquillity. But though all this is undoubted and in controvertible fact—though the workmen are generally employed, and everybody was looking forward to a pleasant Christmas and a brilliant opening of the new year in the gay and civilised metropolis of France, yet it may be that these latter expectations will not be grati fied. With what surprise the news which we published in a third edition yesterday would be generally received in Paris may be well imagined. Admitting, however, to the fullest extent that the Chamber has on more than one occasion menaced and insulted the President—ad mitting, also, that the Council of State has been an accessory in this unwise, undignified, and unstatesman like poliey, both before and uftWThelact—admitting also that the most unnatural coalitions between parties had taken place in the Chamber —nevertheless we be. lieve most well-informed persons, both here and abroad, were of opinion that the President and his Government would have allowed the Chamber and the Burgraves to proceed to more overt acts of hostility than anywhere appears recorded in their proceedings. Bat whether it is that a conspiracy has been discovered of which it was arranged that a branch of the house of Orleans should be the blind instrument, and M. Thiers the motive and ma neging power—whether it is that the proposition sought to be brought forward by M. Laborde (namely, that the principle of Monarchy or Republic should be for+ wally considered)—excited and moved the President to action—we know not, and cannot pronounce, for the de tails are not yet come to hand. But whatever the motive, or whatever the provocation, certain it is, that both the Assembly and the Council of State are dis solved, and that Paris itself is placed in a state of siege. The reason fur an extreme measure of this kind was doubtless great and overwhelming, for it were acting disingenuously with our readers not to declare that it is a measure beyond the assigned limits of the Constitution. As little do we aver—that a case has arisen of a very urgent and overwhelming nature—in which the placing of Paris in a state of siege has been justifiable. But such case must indeed have been an urgent one, for it is pro vided by the 106th article of the Constitution that the forms and effects of a state of siege must be regulated by an express law. It may be remembered that we expressly defended in this journal the state of siege in which Paris was placed in June, 1848, by General Cavaignac. But it should be recollected that the Reds and Socialists were then in open insurrection—that demagoguic clubs were sitting in permanence —and that a civil war was actually raging. Public safety and the salvation of so ciety we freely admitted absolutely required such a measure in 1848, and may require such a measure again in December, 1851, for aught we know to the contrary. But, in the absence of all details and all information, it cannot be supposed we are prepared to speculate upon motives and grounds with which we are wholly unite quainted. We may, however, here remark, that up to June, 1848, the conditions of a state of siege were regu lated by the laws of Bth July, 1791—by the laws of the 10th Fructidor—and the decree of the 24th December,lBll. That the hard and onerous conditions of a state of siege should be so specifically regulated there can be no doubt, for, according to the military law of France, a city placed in a state of siege is like a city in a state of war. The civil authority passes entirely into the hands of the military commander, who, in reference to subsistence, organization, and entire command, may be considered supreme and absolute arbiter. Every civil and military authority is for the time under him —judges, prefects, mayors, artillery, cavalry, engineers, national guard, municipal guard, chasseurs de Vincennes, sappers and miners, as well as bishops, priests, and monks, are under his entire control. He alone decides in every resort according to secret in structions which he receives from the executive. Such powers as these are more than plenary ; they are abso lute and autocratic. There have been extreme cases, where such a complete dictature is not only admissible, but supremely necessary—where such a mvister populi as Cicero speaks of in his" Fragment of the Republic" can be tolerated and even applauded. But the cases are very exceptional, and the instances very rare in deed, where such power should be conferred or as sumed. There must be a justification for such a course; but until we know the facts, it would be imprudent, as well as unjust, to pronounce upon them. The Presi dent, we are told in conclusion, restores universal suf frage, and appeals to the nation. This looks as though ho rested a firm reliance upon the motives by which he has been urged, and upon the necessity for the course he has adopted. Such appears to us to be the reason able inference to be drawn from an appeal to the people of France. CLIRONICLE.—Criticism of the stunning intelli gence which reached us yesterday must obviously be confined to the succession of facts as they occurred, leaving untouched for the present the mighty eventuali ties with which they are remotely pregnant. Although, by yesterday noon, we had been even more distinctly advised than were probably the population in the suburbs of Paris, that the Assembly had been forcibly dissolved, and that Louis Napoleon had taken military possession of the principal points in the city; we felt that wo had been admitted to but a glimpse of the secret of a great drama; nor are we even now much more confident as to the extent to which we have penetrated it. Still there is no want of magnitude in the in cidents themselves, and they cast a flood of light upon mach that has preceded them. All through Sunday and Monday rumour had been busier than usual in Paris. It was said that orders had been transmitted to the Prefects of departments, and to the Generals commanding the districts which were under military law, to the effect that they were to hold themselves in readiness against a danger which was close at hand. Some of the reports added that all the troops, within twenty miles of the capital, had been warned that they must b e prepare d to marc h at a momen t' s not i ce, and that the superintendents of the railway companies bad been commanded to keep the road completely free for the passage of soldiery. The representatives, who crowded to the Ministry of the Interior for information and guidance, were acquainted by M. de Thorigny that the preparations in question had really been made, and that their object was to provide against an outbreak of the Socialist democracy, which bad been fixed for the day of the Paris election. All who heard the answer interpreted it in accordance with those perverse notions of Louis Napoleon's character and capacity, at whi c h we have so often expressed our astonishment. Although General Loewenstein had just been placed, in lieu of Ge neral Perrot, at the head of the N ational Guards—and although it was known that the principal subordinate of the new comminder was Colonel Vieyra, the unscrupulous officer who destroyed the printing presses of tho Repub lican newspapers after the abortive demonstration in June, 1849--no one eye seems to have been opened to the true nature of the movements which were admitted to be going on. It was the old story, they said. The Legitimists and Orleanists were assured by their news• papers that the President had invented this clumsy fable of a plot, as an excuse for making an imposing display of energy, and so proving to the Conservative party how useful was his vigilance and how indispensable his aid. The National of Monday declared ironically that the Ministers would be obliged to it for saving them the trouble of announcing that the plot was all a mistake. In fact, the adversaries of the ElyEee walked right into the pitfall, with loud asseverations of their contempt for the hand which had dug it. The conspiracy, which had thus tainted the air all day, exploded in the night. The Parisians awoke on Tuesday morning to find every position of importance in the occupation of the mili tary. Then came the news that all the o ffi cers who might have influenced the army unfavourably for Louis Napoleon's designs had been roused from their beds to be placed under arrest. The great African Generals, Changarnier, Cavaignac, and Lamoriciere, with Bedeau, Leflo, and the Republican Colonel Charras, were already lodged in the prison of Mezzos. To these had been added MM. Thiers, Lagrange, and upwards of sixty other representatives. The Palace of the Assembly was closed and surrounded; and the walls of Paris wero pla carded with the following decree:— "In the name of the French people, the President of ;he Republic decrees— _ " ARTICLE I. The National Assembly is dissolved. " ARTICLE 11. " Universal suffrage is re-established, The Lviv of ,he 31st May is repealed. " ARTICLE 111. " The French people are convoked in their communes 'roni the 14th to the 21st December. " ARTICLE IV. " The state of siege is decreed in the whole of the first military division. " ARTICLE V. "The Couccil of State is dissolved. " ARTICLE VI. " The Minister of the Interior is charged with the execution of this decree. " LOUIS NAPOLEON BONAPARTE." Such aro the facts of Tuesday morning; and up to the moment at which we write, there is nothing to load us to believe that this extraordinary blow has not been struck with success the most signal and unqualified. The only cheek—if such it can bs called—which Louis Napoleon has sustained, is the Ltd that, early in the day, about two hundred Members of the Assembly met at the Maid° of the 101 arrondimement, under M. Daru'o pre e rrh s o so e aaec i e f r e e d e i i n o slh d a t pr i t d :01 : clef little y regarded; Ministers.

In the form of a elide it has never, in all probability, been absent from Loui s on b a ut par a t s icu a lar t beNapoleon's put in sof recent date. Now that the attempt has been actually made, its commencement may be carried back to the period at which General Magnan's acceptance of a command vacated his seat for Paris, and placed at the disposal of the Executive an opportunity of which it must have at once discerned all the uses. By the ex isting law, a casual election, such as that of last Sun day and Monday, might be fixed at any period within six months after the vacancy. To appoint a day for the polling before the unpopular Electoral Law could possibly be repealed—to pretend that the spectacle of an c o t t h st w o o u s l r o ic t gh n a i g ensm t ire a s u : tlee l t oligarchy enjoying the rights of the people of P aris would provoke an outbr ea k o f the indignant democracy —to mask the assemblage of an immense me representing it as a nee df u l precaut i on against the anti cipated demonstr a ti on — a ll t h ese are l in k s in the chain of conspiracy which h ang even l y toget h er , an d which indi cateard force by to us the point from which they are suspended. More over, the inference th a t t h e bl ow h as no t beenquite extemporised is strengthened by another fact which has attracted notice—we all u d e t o th e os t en t a t iou s neutrality which Loui s N a p o l eon ' s persona l a dh eren t s maintained' in the late divi s i ons , as t h oug h t h ey were desirous of protesting that th e A ssem bl y h a d for f eite d its rights. On the other band, it is difficult to set aside, as having exercised no influence on this measure, the extraordi nary result of the debates on the Municipal Bill. One can scarcely conceive a more plausible occasion for an appeal to the people than a division which stereotyped an unpopular principle in the most fundamental of laws, and which was k nown , all the while, to have been vitiated by fraud or mi s t a k e. It may be, however, that this is only another instan ce o f the felicity with which, up to the critical moment, fortune has played into Louis Napoleon's hands. The only man in France who has sworn obedience to the C onst i tution has broken it. Keeping fully in view the palliations afforded by the malice, the recklessness, the selfishness, and the provocations of his enemies, we cannot forget that, according to the letter of the moral and positive law, the act just perpetrated amounts both to perjury and to treason. If it be suc cessfully accomplished, we can only hope that the ex cuses for his conduct will seem so conclusive to Louis Napoleon as to preserve his self-respect unimpaired. Once confirmed in a systematic carelessness of obliga tions, ho will find himself courted by precipice after pre cipice in the path on which he has entered. With an army to support him, there will be a perpetual tempta tion to beat down domestic opposition by its help. With an army to keep in good humour, there will be a perpe tual temptation to engage in foreign war for its aggran disement. But we must keep our promise to refrain at present from speculation or contingencies like these. One consequence of the coup- dual must indeed be men tioned, though the statement of it appears very like a bathos. The English Whig Ministry—on the point of falling to pieces through the revived disagreements of the Palmerston and Grey factions—has perhaps been saved by the events at Paris from a forced resignation, which we should otherwise, in all probability, have had to ennounce in the course of yesterday afternoon. Our patriotic Whig statesmen will find a bond of union and a reason for holding place in the events which have oc curred in Paris. POST. —Louis Napoleon has at last made his threatened appeal from the adverse decisions and ag gressive legislation of the National Assembly to the voice and will of the people at large, as the only compe tent arbitrators on the great questions at issue. With the leading facts of this important turn in the course of events our readers were yesterday made acquainted in quick succession, and, in fact, almost as they occurred. The extreme conciseness which the medium of the electric telegraph combines with its wonderful rapidity !eaves us, however, at the moment of writing, in some uncertainty as to the precise mode in which the bold measures of the President have been carried into effect, and as to the exact circumstances which may have de termined or precipitated thQir exectrion. The important points are that the Assembly has been actually dissolved by command of the Executive—that Universal Suffrage was declared by the President to be the basis on which alone any rattled Government could b 3 formed —that the people were invited to resume their sovereignty and elect a chief—that the troops were steady under arms—that the city was quiet and the people acquiescent. From the attitude of both the contending parties for some time past, it was clear that affairs were rapidly converging to such a necessity as that into which the Executive has now been forced. The Assembly had proved, by the time and mode in which they had revived and car ried forward the augmented Bill on the responsibility of the Executive., that they were bent on reducing to nullity all power in the State except their own. The President, on every possible occasion, had manifested the strongest determination not to submit to such an extinction, nor to permit the seizure of military power by the leading factions of the Assembly. To have done so would, in fact, have been to sacrifice not his own position alone, but the constitutional rights—the means and hopes of settled and tranquil political existence— entrusted to him by his vast constituency. The only chance of preserving such political quiet clearly lay in clumsyin the re- construction, t while Constitution, it experience sunk into deeper condemnation, as absurd in theory, and unmanageable in practice. En tangledeverythe in the bonds of M. Marrast's contradic torywas and involved provisions of fundamental law, it was evident that the country could have no chance of making its way safely through the dangers of disturb ance and anarchy that beset the coming year. Yet the Assembly refused to remove those bonds, rejected every Practicable solution proposed to it, occupied itself in un• justifiable combinations for objects that lay backward in the pa,t, instead of co-operating honestly with the Go vernment to meet the difficulties of the future. In short, the nation, anxious to be rid of the clog that threatened to drag it down into every kind of danger, could look only to one man for release, and that man was Louis Napoleon. Foiled in every attempt to deal with the obstacle within the walls of the Assembly, he has fol lowed the prompting voice of the most influential classes of the people, by cutting the knot which he was not per mitted to loosen. Nothing could show more strongly the profound conviction prevalent through France, that the Assembly had forgotten its duties and mistaken its proper course, than the quiet approval with which the middle classes contemplated the impending fate of their representative; while a coup d'dtat was merely a thing talked of; and it seems, as we judged would be the case, that nothing could be more complete than the indifference with which the actual cessation of their existence, as a member of the body politic, has been regarded by tho citizens of Paris. The complete failure of the successive attempts at military domination en the part of the leaders of the Assembly could not fail to bring utter ruin to their ambitious hopes, and to establish more strongly the power against which their machinations were directed. Military usurpation was the last chance of success for the chiefs of the old parties; for they had done nothing to win the confidence of the people, and had promised nothing to gain their support. They had no principle on which to rely—could declare no course on which they were agreed—were surg ing blindly, recklessly on to anarchy. The appeal pro posed by Louis Napoleon to the only possible foundation of a political system that revolution has left to France, namely, universal suffrage, was, in fact, the last and so litary way of escape from a revival of that instrument of evil, the Convention, and perhaps from all the horrors of 1793. To the result of such an appeal everything that has yet occurred leads us to look with confidence. The intrigues of those unwise adherents of the two branches of Monarchy, to whom so much mischief has of late been traced, may be considered to have re ceived their finishing stroke. These persons must, in F renc h phrase, " accept the situation," and be content to abandon their projects for such Government as the nation is prepared to accept and welcome. The diffi culty which the Exec u ti ve P ower will yet have to eet will, no doubt, be that ancient one of revolution, the reconciliation of Republican jealousy with the necessary restrictions of a Government that forms a new part in a sixty years' course of political troubles. appealing for its very creation, and dependi ng An Executive very existence on the most DOMOC . ra d trc principles, will yet be charged with the strictest for its pression of the dangerous tendencies most vigorous rf n practice. In this difficult part of h e is es tas. ,o li f , Dtheem4acirnaquP port of the President, if Louis Napoleon elected bewith to that pest, will be in the loyalwhich , even in these last bold principle professed by him throeghout—that the people e in the widest sense, and they tdhered to the alone, must, in c the present state of France, be the source of power, 11 h h e as Ywhatever ruler they may choose. Of himself he e o power at tempted to establish no sovereignty—he claini nsatnionbeyond that which he employs in giving the In free dom to do its own work and make its own choice. beyond all order to give that freedom, it was necessary, h ar h y Ll shown doubt, to get rid of the Assembly, w in plotting against it self so disposed to employ its lastdays to which the coup that free action of public opinion hole settlement of future govern d'etat refers the w ment. Louis Napoleon has done his part, and bas done it boldly yet moderately. It is now for France to do hers resolutely, yet, let us hope, peace fully. A chief chosen by the universal voice, hold ing his office for ton years, supported by a Council of State, and by a double Chamber—such are the recom mendations of Louis Napoleon; and with whatever frel jugs tboy may be received by the more advanced sec- , Lion - of the iepublican body or the partizans-`of - the mo- ' narchic houses, they must be admitted to present to the middl e classes of France ti better prospect of a fair field In Three Volumes.

AINERTISER.—France i s aga i n in crisis. If Paris be not i n a state of agitation, it is be ;e Paris is in a state o` siege. Th e people are tran quil, because they cannot assemble together to inter change their feelings or to act in any way in concert. The siege was proclaimed yesterday morning at an early hour. The declaration of Paris being in a state of siege, was the accompaniment of an edict from the Dykes) dis solving the National Assembly and the Council of State, followed by an appeal to the country on the principle of universal suffrage, in favour of a ten years' Presidency, and two legislative Chambers. For such information, which at best is but exceedingly scanty, as has reached this country, by means of the electric telegraph, re specting the circumstances under which this startling change in the position of matters has taken place, we must refer to another part of our paper. There is every reason to assume that the bold step which Louis Napoleon has taken was, so far as regards the particular moment, the result of some sudden impulse. We cannot on any other supposition account for the circumstance of its being so entirely un expected, even in the best informed circles in Paris. It is clear that the moneyed men—the men who have the credit of knowing things before they can well be said to had have taken pl ace —it i s beyond all que s ti on , t h at they not the remotest idea of what was coming. There rfoisres,oameed wweepreksh could be no better proof of this than is furnished by the and declaring fact, that ne, ee to e close of business hours on the Bourse the previous evening, the funds continued to stateo !u ti on a suddenly. formed deter of tees` hambersbe in of p ig a t at the close than they had been sieg the particular i t a h r e i r ng therefore, par time 'must have been the effect of must have kept his ovvnesrwination, secrets in a manner which few persons in such a positionee we wonder at what has h elapsed since we said that thea isto thedi a " what has occurred?

Human nature could not have borne the provocation he had received at the hands of the Burgraves. It is their act and deed quite as much as hie. They have done it all, so far as regards the motive. The ground for surprise 18, n ot pedient now, but that he so long refrained from taki ng the step. s th u a P t pl t y h i e President has had recourse to thi s ex t reme ex ng Never did man, in his situation, b ear so much and so long. The majority in the Asaembly seemed to imagine that their sole mission, as members of the Legislature, was to harass, annoy, and in every pos sible way, insult the President. And assuredly, had that been the express purpose for which their constituents had returned them to the Assembly, they could not have more faithfully or perseveringly fulfilled their mission. For nearly two years there has scarcely been a day in which some new manifestation of personal hostility to- Lous Napoleon, has not been made. And even when an adjournment of the Assembly took place, it was not until a Committee of Permanence was appointed, to watcth with vigilant eye every movement of Louis Napoleon', under the pretext that he was suppose 1 to entertain put poses at variance with the Constitution. Nor did this feeling of personal hostility, prompting ofttimes to acts of intentional insult, in any degree abate with the lapse of time. It seemed, on the contrary, to become more intense with every fresh rising and setting of the sun. It only appeared to have reaohed its climax, when the implacable personal foes of the Presi dent gravely proposed, some four or five weeks ago, to deprive the Executive of all right of control over the army, and to assume that power to itself. Had they suc ceeded in that attempt, they would have had their re venge gratified to the full on Louis Napoleon. They would have wreaked their wrath with no sparing hand on his devoted head. The dungeons of Vincennes would have been his first destiny, to be followed, very possibly, by something even worse than that. Though defeated in that attempt, they still determined to persist in affronting and seeking to injure Louis Napoleon. Close on the heels of the majority's defeat on the question to which we have just alluded, came the attempt to carry the Responsibility Bill, and even so late as Saturday last, the commission appointed by the Assembly to prepare a measure in accordance with the principle of Presidential responsibility, as laid down by tho majority, devoted a sitting of several hours to the consideration of the propriety of impeaching the President, in certain contingencies, which they regarded as of possible occur rence. We give in the words of the communication, from our able Paris correspondent, which appeared in our impression of yesterday, the proceedings before the commission on Saturday. "M. Prudie," says our cor respondent, " who lately proposed as an amendment, that the President of the Assembly should be invested with power to call out any troops that he may require for the defence of the Assembly, again presented an. other amendment, to this effect:—` The President shall be impeached fa- high treason if be should att,mpt an unconstitutional re-election, by causing the law to be violated, or not punishing any public functionaries who may attempt to further his re-election.' Another simendin, nt, equally hostile to the Presith nt, was pre sented by M. Combal de Lyval: It shall be high trea son for the President to provoke the violation of the Con stitution by bribes, threats, or promises, or other arti fices.' Both of these amendments, directly aimed at the President if he should attempt his re-election, were rejected after strong discussion, when M. Berryer pro posed The President shall be impeached for high treason if he attempt to violate the 45th article of the Constitution,' M. Zanvier said that he thought all these propositions so objectionable that be should vote for none of them. A tremendous scene of recrimination then followed, when, finally, M. Berryer's proposition was carried by seven votes to six." What mortal, we again ask, could always submit to the system of insult and attempt to injure, of which these proceedings of Sa turday constituted but the last scenes? The wonder, we repeat, is, that Louis Napoleon could have displayed the forbearance he has done, under such great and manifold provocations. But the crisis has come at last. The day of forbearance has passed. Louis Napoleon has ap pealed from his personal enemies in the Assembly, to the people. Ho will not appeal to them in vain. They have not been inattentive to what has been passing before them during the last two years. They have nut been unconcerned spectators of the scenes which have lately been exhibited in the Assembly. They are with Louis Napoleon—with him almost to a man. Ilia foes have no party without the walls of the Chamber. They stand alum/. And now that matters have come to a climax, they will quarrel and become divided among themselves. Like a nest of conspirators who have been detected and defeated, they will begin to indulge in mutual recriminations. We shall have a new illustration of the old adage respecting hottest men getting their own, when a certain class of persons fall oat. We are sure that, in France, the universal feeling must have been one of utter weariness at the state of things which has latterly prevailed, and that there must be a corre sponding delight that, an end has been put to it. We have, we repeat, no apprehensions of the result of the should a still greater number vote would not surprise us, appeal which Louis N a p o leon has made to France. It -for his re-election than voted for his elevation to the Presidency of the Republic in 1818. SEABORNE MAILS .
