THE LIVERPOOL STANDAR& letter from Colmar of the 29th, which it deems-deserving of fuliconfidence:—On the evening of the 29th, on the installation of the Preach Provisional Government's Commissioner, the news arrived that there was fighting at Carlsruhe. A postscript to the same letter says that a rising has taken place in the Baden country ; the tri coloured flag is hoisted everywhere; and Mentz (Hesse Darmstadt) is in open rebellion. Tb r he Pacha of Egypt has left Alexandria for Malta, for the benefit of his health. Lord Hardinge and suite arrived at Cossier, on the lgth ult., and proceeded across the desert to )Kenneh, - and from thence he intends proceeding to Thebes, and, pro bably, some of the neighbouring temples, -and -was- ex pected to return to Alexandria on the 26th. Tom Thumb had a narrow escape from drowning, from a collision of steamers on the Mississippi on the 6th ult. There was a great confusion in the boat, but Mr. Barnum picked up the mannikin and bore him safe to the shore. The King of Prussia is about to send a scientific expe dition into Negroland, in search of some vast and splen did ruins of an ancient city, which a Mahmnmedan tra veller, whose work has been translated from the Turkish by Dr. Rosean, asserts that he discovered during his wanderings in Central Africa. Dr. Wrsemanlti;TaUsed to be inserted in the Roman (official) Gazette, a rather strong paragraph, to the effect that he has no connexion with the London Tablet, and that he is " very far from being a party to its exaggerated notions ;" and that he is no collaborator of Mr. Lucas the editor. THE TRIAL OF LEOTADE AT TOULOUSE. — The people of Toulouse have become so excited at the disclosures made on this trial that they have sacked the .establishment of the Christian Brethren in that town. The general of the order has summoned the brethren to tell the truth, no matter what may be the consequences, and not dare to screen the murderers of the unfortunate Cecille Combet tees. THE INDIAN MAlL.—Apprehension has been enter tained that the outward Indian mail was destroyed during the recent disturbances in France. Official information of its safety has, however been received. The Admiralty has ordered one of the best steamers to proceed direct to Malta, to meet the mails that were to leave Hong Kong on the 31st of January. Calcutta the Bth, and Bombay the 16 of February, and to convey them direct/to South ampton. SUICIDE OF A CLERGYMAN AT MALTA.-013 the morn ing of the 23d of February, the Rev. Robert Irvine, M.A.. Incumbent of S. John's, Waterloo-road, Lambeth, who occupied apartments at Barker's (Princess Royal) Hotel, was found in his bed room with his throat cut, and dead, evidently having committed suicide. The deceased had lately arrived at Malta fr nn Tunis, and no cause has as yet been discovered for his committing the act, though it is rumoured that some of the rev. gentleman's friends and acquaintances had witnessed in him for several weeks previous a change of manner. SLAVE -HOLDING JURISPRUDENCE. - The Charleston Courier contains a list of criminals recently sentenced by the City Court of Charleston for various crimes. Among them we noticed that one man. for a highway robbery, was sentenced t o a f ew mont h s ' i mpr i sonment and a slight fine; while ano her, William Smith, for negro steal ing, (abducting negroes from their masters), is to be im prisoned until the first Friday in September next, and then hung by the neck until he is dead. So it seems that in South Carolina negro stealing is a vastly greater crime than robbery.—New York Evangelist. STATE OF EUROPE.—If the symptoms of France are menacing, the state of Europe is so too. Spain is dis organised—ltaly on fire—Switzerland in legalised re bellion against order and religion—Austria smouldering— Belgium, and, perhaps, Holland, ready for revolt—Poland is smarting from recv t—Germany agitated by wild .:ent chastisme.,.. though, as yet. aimless desires-4 ireece stands on me edge of military revolution—and, finally, Rom e herself, the centre of religious subordination, holds out her hand to Democracy—not fanciful, abstract Democracy, but such as the nineteenth century beholds her —and tells her that " She shall reign." IMPORTANT MOVE.—A bill has been introduced into the Legislature of Alabama, the object of which is to pre • - , - vent the sepa r ati on o f th e families of negroes, and to exempt them from sale by legal process. A motion was made to indefinitely postpone the bill; but it was lost by a large majority. A good, a glorious move ! holders will not belie their better natures, or much longer' tolerate injustice, by submitting to the terrible moral wrong of separating families, and a cold blooded traffic in slaves. Will the Kentucky Legislature, following the Alabama, legalize the marriage of coloured persons, and forbid the desecration of home ties ? Will churches, in . obedience to the Word of God, insisting upon these mat ters declare, that no man ought to separate families, and traffic in human flesh for money ?—Louisville Examiner.. THE REVOLUTION IN FRANCE PARIS, SUNDAY. The National Guard are nobly preserving peace up to the present moment. All classes are animated with the greatest enthusiasm. Paris is perfectly tranquil. The penalty of death has been abolished for political offences. There has been some very severe fighting between the military and the people at gtrasburgh. Tie Republic has been formally announced by the Pro visional Government, and royalty abolished. The United States Minister has recognised the .Provisional Gobern ment. Bordeaux has acknowledged the Republic. The Provisional Government has decreed the immediate esta blishment of national workshops. A meeting of Peer , here to the Republic Juging to the Crown a resolutior confiscated Bou.Maza has made his escape. Dreadful commotion at Amiens, but the troops have declared for the Republic. Loss of life on both sides estimated at 500. The Duchess of Orleans has, it is rumoured, been arrested at Millen. At Madrid no Bourse held. A deputation from Belgium has formally announced the accomplishment of the revo lution at Lille. Admiral Baudin has left to take command .of the Mediterranean fleet. After bxecuting his commis sion he sails for Italy. Algeria is declared an integral part of France. The Provisional Government is stated to have at its disposal 135,000,0001'. at the Bank of France, and . 55,000 000 f at the Treasury. , The Paris journals of Monday announce the perfect reestablishment of tranquillity in the capital, and the ar rival of " adhesions" from the departments. They refer, however, to horrible outrages in the vicinity of the metro polis, and in an especial manner at Rouen, where the po litical agitation was made the pretext for a brutal demon stration against the English worknu n on the railroads, and the _burning of the wooden bridge of the Havre rail road. The Provisional Government was working with energy for the reorganisation of all the public offices. All the accounts from the departments announced the rising of the people and the recognition of the Republic. The army was equally and similarly unanimous. At Toulouse, where a Legitimist expression had been feared, the Re. public had been proclaimed with acclamation. The whole of the Thiers and Odillon Barrot parties had rallied round the Provisional Government. The first Marshal who has given his adhesion to the Republic is . Marshal Bugeaud. The hospital list shows that the number of wounded is 428, of whom 350 are civilians and 78 military. On Sun day, the 27th ult., a numerous band of incendiaries pro ceeded to Maisons Lafitte, near Paris, with the intention of burning the bridge. The National Guard immediately took up arms, but not being strong enough to oppose the :ianditti, they sent for assistance to St. Germain-en-Laye. A large detachment of National Guards of that town, ac companied by a squadron of dragoons, who each carried behind him an armed citizen, immediately proceeded to Maisons, where they arrived in time to prevent the de struction of the bridge. They then attacked the incen diaries, killed eight of them, and made a considerable number prisoners. The incendiaries, nineteen in number, who burned the bridge of Asnieres, have been arrested after an obstinate resistance, in which one of them was killed.

HOUSE ‘OF LORDS MONDAY Lord Eglintoun presented petitions from Montrose and Ayrshire, praying for a modification or repeal of the Bank Charter Act. After a short discussion, the Diplomatic Relations (Court of Rome) Bill was read a third time and passed. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-MONDAY The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in moving that the House should resolve itself into a committee of ways and means, observed that he thought it desirable to avail himself of that opportunity to state more fully than his noble friend at the head of the Government had done on bringing forward the budget what the state of the finances were, and further to draw the attention of the House to the course which the• Government had now determined to pursue. The right honourable baronet having proceeded to give a revised version of the financial affairs of the country, intimated that it was not the intention of the Government to persevere in the proposition—in conse quence of the objection it had met with not only within but without the walls of Parliament—of imposing an additional amount of income tax of two per cent., as an nounced by his noble friend, but to continue the tax at its present rate for three years from the period at which it would otherwise have expired. It was proposed to pay the expenses of the Kafrre war of £1,000,000, and the excess of the last year's navy estimates of £245,000, out of the existing balances in the Exchequer, leaving the deficiency for the year, supposing the present income tax to becontinued, at about a million and a half. He did not pledge himself or the government as to the course it might he necessary to pursue in reference to this defi ciency. It might become imperative to propose, instead of an increase in the income tax, such an amount of taxa tion, in the absence of an increase of the revenue to that extent, which could only be rather hoped for than ex pected, as would balance the amount of expenditure for the year. The right hon. gentleman concluded by mov ing (hat the House resolve itself into a committee of ways and means for the purpose of an amended resolution being proposed, continuing the income tax at its present rate for the period of three years. A protracted discussion ensued, Mr. CARDWELL sug gesting, that the committee should be postponed for the purpose of affording time for the consideration of this amended proposition, to which the Chancellor of the Exchequer acceded, and the committee was fixed for Friday. HOUSE OF LORDS. TUESDAY Earl GREY, in an explanatory speech, moved the second reading of the New Zealand Government Bill, which motion, after some observations from Lord Sranley and the Earls of Waldcgrave and St. Germans, was agreed to.

This arrangement gave' a total, according to his,calcula tion, of £5,581,000. instead of .C 5,600,000, which had beentthe produce of the tax for the last year; but minis- ters calculated in their budget for the ensuing year that the tax would produce only £5,200,000. His proposition would at all events fall more equally on the several classes of income than the present, and he believed the scale he proposed was so far just, that it made a difference between those incomes which were permanent, and which repre sented accumulated capital—those which represented capitaland labour, and those which represented labour and skill only. It had also this recommendation, that it would relieve those who were most oppressed by the tax, as nowimposed, while the only additional harden whirl would he thrown upon any class was the extfa penny in the pound on permanent incomes—a burden which he believed would be cheaply purchased by the large amount 01 relief it would give to other classes, the satisfaction with which the change would be received by the country generally., and the ease with which the tax would be col lected. The hon. member was loudly cheered during, and at the close of, his speech. A protracted discussion en-ued, the proposition being-, of course, opposed by.the goy: rnment ; at the termination of which the house divided, when Mr. Horsman's motion was negatived by a majority of 316 to 141. The house then went into committee o formd, to sit again on Monday, Mr. HUME intimating his intention of proposing that the duration of the tax be limited to one year. FOREIGN AND COLONIAL.

The bon. member concluded a powerful speech illustra tive of the hardship and injustice of the present tax, by announcing his plan to be to retain the same •number of schedules as in the present act, but to cast them differ ently. Incomes arising from professions he would take from schedule D and place in schedule E, which referred to incomes also of a precarious and terminable nature, viz., emoluments arising from public offices, leaving "1)" entirely for incomes arising from trade, com merce, and manufactures. And the scale of tax he would then propose would be as foliows:—On incomes included in schedules A and C he proposed an addition of one penny to the present rate of tax, making eightpence in the pound. On incomes which would he included in schedule E. viz., professions and emoluments from Public offices, he proposed that the tax should be fourpence in the pound ; and upon incomes included in schedule D, viz., trade, commerce, &c., he proposed the intermediate rate of sixpence in the pound, leaving B as at present. By *h ` - slight increase on schedule A, they would relieve an equal FRENCH SAFE ARRIVAL OF THE EX-KING AND QUEEN OF THE At twelve o'clock the King and Queen, with four at tendants, one of whom was a female, stepped from the boat at Newhaven-bridge. Louis Philippe appeared ex tremely delighted at having reached the shores of Eng land, and expressed his pleasure in very warm terms to those around—not more than half a dozen besides the persons already mentioned. Though cheerful he looked pale. He exclaimed in reply to a remark from one of the persons present congratulating him on having reached this country : " Yes, yes, I know lam safe among you —a great misfortune. I know the English people; they are kind to those in misfortune." He shook hands with all those who offered their hands, as did the Queen. Some one said his anxieties were now over; to which he answered, " Yes. I have suffered much during the past week,—but the country people were very kind to me," meaning the peasantry in the neighbourhood of Honfleur, in whose houses he had been secreted in disguise. In this disguise he now appeared. It consisted of a green blouse, dark trowsers, a red and white " comforter," and a casquette, or peasant's cap. Over the blouse was a pea coat, which had been borrowed from the captain of the Express. The King carried a small cane. The Queen was attired in mourning of the humblest kind ; consisting of a black bonnet, a very thick veil, and a woollen cloak of black and white plaid with broad checks. She looked much careworn. The whole of the luggage which the party brought was a small portmanteau about a foot long. While they were walking towards the Bridge Inn, Louis Philippe was very anxious to obtain a London morning paper, but appeared to be quite cognizant of the latest events in Paris. On reachii:g the inn, the party was received by Mrs. Smith, the hostes', and the first act of the ex-king was to call for writing materials. " I wish," he said, "to write to the queen, to inform her of my safe arrival." He then wrote, in a very short time, more than one letter, and en closed them in one envelope, which be addressed to her Majesty. With this despatch Mr. Iron instantly hastened to town. So destitute were the fugitives of what was ne cessary, that Mr. Iron was commissioned to return with several articles of under clothing, dressing-cases, &c. The party having partaken of a little wine and biscuit, a London paper was brought, over which Louis Philippe g awed. He had previously sent to Brighton for Mr. P.ickham. This gentlenian was at one time very much in theconfidenceof his Majesty respecting several engineering projects, being a miller, and a tenant of the king, on an estate near Chateau d'Eu. He has since retired from business, and resides at Brighton, but was, up to last. week, in constant communication with the king. Indeed, he was closeted with Louis Philippe at the commencement of the outbreak, and, on making some remark respecting it, the king exclaimed, "Oh !it is nothing—it will soon blow over !" A little circumstance occurred in the interval, which adds another to the many proofs that Louis Philippe gave, during his last visit, of his extraordinary memory for per sons and names. it was intimated to him, that as the accommodation of the Bridge Inn might be somewhat deficient, Mr. Cole, a ship agent, of Newhaven, would be happy to place his house at the disposal of the royal visi _ enemy. tors.

It con tained, besides the crew, five persons, who proved to be the ex-King and Queen of the French, and their attend ants. They were immediately taken on board, and the vessel turned towards England. After steaming the whole night the Express arrived off Newhaven at seven o'clock on Friday morning, but owing to the state of tide and the weather the vessel could not safely enter the harbour till noon. An article in the National, which is edited by a mem ber of the provisional government, states the French re public would not encounter any great repugnance in Eng land, and that, "We are now at liberty to declare that we will accept an alliance with the ' great English nation, in terms honour a ble t o b o th countries, and with such se curities as we have a right to e x p ec t. Another point still excited our opposition ; it appeared to us that the French government did not deal with that of England on a foot ing of equality." The article concludes as follows : "The French Republic, occupied in its own organization, and employed in fructifying the future of the working classes, would only undertake war if European nation alists were menaced. On the other hand, there is in England no government so rash, so destructive, as to compromise the interests of all by plunging into war. The neutrality of England appears, therefore, to be in sured to us for the present. This neutrality will be transformed into some more intimate connexion, more efficacious as regards the peace and security of Europe, which will be the result of time, of events, and of human actions. But thus much is certain,—that the two na tions, if they unite for any great and common object of justice and civilization, will weigh too heavily in the scales to be counterbalanced by any other influence." The Times Paris correspondence of Thursday says that Paris was tranquil. A decree of the government appoints M. Armand Barbes colonel of the 12th legion. In 1839, this Young man headed an attempt, with 400 men, to upset the go vernment of Louis Philippe against fearful odds, and was condemned to death ; but the punishment was commuted to imprisonment for life. He is now at the head of one of the finest legions in Paris. The country was, with triflinc , exceptions, in behalf of the republic : but it w as regretted that a decree had super seded M. Dupin. Deputations in favour of the govern ment were received from the provinces. Order and tranquility continued to prevail throughout France, the republic being everywhere proclaimed without resistance, even in Brittany and La Vendee. The public works had been resumed in Paris with con siderable activity. The exact amount of money at the disposal of the state amounts to 890,000,000 f., of which 835,000.000 f. are de posited in the hank of France, and 55,000,000 in the trea- The price of gold had fallen 25 per cent. since Monday The price of bread had fallen, and there was a supply ofwheatin Paris for 35 days. More than 20,000 young men are already enrolled in the new National Guard, between whom and the old the best spirit reigns. The artillery of the National Guard is being reorganised. Already are the different sections of the working classes drawing out their lists of grievances for the consideration of the government commission. Two volumes of the M.S. nemoirs of the ex-King of the French (hound in red morocco) have been saved from the wre. kof -his property. These memoirs terminate at the period when the commissioners of the consulate pro claimed the republic in presence of the armies of the A DANGEROUS CAItOUSE.—The Debats says,—" In the devastation and burning of the Château of Neuilly, some bandits rushed into the apartments, whilst others went to the cellars. The latter there found wine of all descriptions. and a cask of rum, which they broke open. Some instants after they were all drunk, and then a ter rific battle took place between them, their principal wea pons being bottles. At length they fell to the ground, overcome by intoxication or by wounds. Meanwhile the men who went into the apartments ravaged and pillaged them completely, after which they set them on fire, and the whole building was soon in flames. In a short time the then in the cellars were either burned to death or suffocated. On Sunday from 100 to 120 dead bodies were dug out." ARRIVAL OF M. GUIZOT. M. Guizot arrived at Dover on Friday morning by the Ville de Bruges steamer from Ostend. The ex-minister travelled to town by the 4 p.m. express train. On his arrival at the London-bridge terminus he was received by Mr. MacGregor and the officials of the company. M. Guizot was recognised by the bystanders, and there was some slight cheering as the carriage in which he rode drove out of the station. A Frenchman present, how ever, exhibited an opposite feeling, and cried out " A bas Guizot 1" The ex-minister was enveloped in a large cloak, and carried a glazed portmanteau. He looked careworn and ill. SCENES IN THE FRENCH THEATRES.—On Sunday, the managers of the Porte St. Martin gave a gratuitous re presentation at two o'clock. The house was crammed, and Frederic Lemaitre was the principal actor. The play was "The Chiffonier." In the well known pannier scene his auditors were raised to a pitch of indescribable en thusiasm. Lemaitre, as the Chiffonier, hooked a royal crown out of his hamper, and at this " hit " the whole audience rose en masse, and a roar, for it cannot be called a cry, of " Vire la _Republique" reverberated through the foundation of the edifice. The actor a ft erwar d s d rew forth a police ordinance, and exclaimed, " All b anquets are prohibited ; " a sally which was o f course received with shouts of laughter. The Afarsellaise hymn was then chanted, followed by the celebrated Chant du De part, after which the audience dispersed. The Charivari was distributed in the theatre gratis.

Guizot took the gentleman's hand, and with some emotion said, " Yes, I have—thank you—God bless you." M. Guizot travelled without any luggage, except a small writing-case, which he carried in his hand. A new edition of the " Paris Directory" will soon be required. The names of buildings and streets are changing fast. Royalty, even as a sign, is disappearing. On all the public offices appears the well-known motto, " Liberty, EjaliW, Fraternii6." It is painted over the doors of churches, at the branch posts, and the minor Government offices ; it is chalked till the painter can make it permanent. The Rue de Louis Philippe has ceased to be ; a board is nailed over the name at the cor ner. The Hotel des Princes, in the Rue Richelieu,. is the Hotel des --; the old title is erased and a new one not yet given.
