DUBLIN. MONDAY EVENING.
In the Court of Queen's Bench, this day, Mr.
Smyly, conned for the crown, applied to have a writ
of habeas corpus issued, to bring John Martin into
court, for the purpose of assigning errors, the usual
certificate having been lodged in the proper office.
The court granted the application, and Thursday
next was fixed for the purpose. It iscot yet known
whether the arguments in the case Mr. Smith
O'Brien can be heard this term. Nothing has yet
been done in the matter.

threatened to strike him within the walls of the how.
(Laughter, and cries of " Question.") Be thought it hit
duty to call the attention of the house to the matter. Ho
was quite ready to meet any complaint of the hon. member
out of the house, but in the house he thought himself ad.
tied to the protection of the chair.
No notice being taken of the hon. member's observation

THE REFORM DEDATE.

In the HOUSE Or COMMONS, last night, Mr. Coa-
-1 DEN, in the absence of Mr. HUME, postponed the ad.
journed debate on parliamentary reform until this lay
week, the government having consented to give up
that day to the hon. member for Montrose.

TEE House of Commons is doing yeoman's service
in the cause of reform, by embracing every opportu-
nity to illustrate its own unfitness for the conduct of
senors business, while it remains constituted as at
present. Scenes like that presented last night in the
skirmish preliminary to the West India debate, by
which so much time was uselessly and discreditably
wasted, are rapidly bringing the intelligent portion
of the public to regard their virtual representatives
with a sentiment closely bordering on contempt.

NEWS FROM PARIS.

PARIS, IntlitDAY, 10'30 A.M.
It is announced that the Assembly is to suspend its
sittings on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday next, for
the pirpose of getting the position of the bureau of
the president and secretaries changed, with a view of
improving the acoustic qualities of the hall.
The ball beirg an oblong rectangle, the bureau
is now placed at one of its extremities, the
effect of which is that members near the other ex-
tremity are too distant for hearing. It is intended,
therefore, to remove the bureau to one of the sides,
placing it at the middle of the length of the hall.
This change, however, will be attended with the
inconvenience of placing the majority of the members
at either side of the president instead of being in
front.
The report of the committee of finance, prepared
by M. Saintbeuve upon the exposé of the minister of
Finance was distributed yesterday. The estimate of
the committee of the produce of the resources proposed
by the ministers differs to a serious extent from that
of the ministers. M. Duclerc culculated that his
financial plan would give 580 millions, while the
committee show that it cannot produce more than
230 millions.
The corps diplornalique having demanded, through
the Sardinian ambassador, explanations from the Mi-
nister of Foreign Affairs, on the project of mobilising
300 battalions of the national guard, the latter has
declared that the measure had nothing warlike in it,
and that the government was as pacifically disposed
as before ; and stated that the full motives would be
made known by the Minister of the Interior to the
Assembly on introducing the project.
The complicity of the government or some of its
members with the leaders of the outrage of the 15th
May is likely soon to force itself upon the assembly.
The iuterpellaions of M. Pere to•day on the subject
of the letter of the Marquis de Boissy will no doubt
lead indirectly to curious disclosures. While Barbds,
Blanqui, Sobrier, and the others are shut up in the
"donjon" of Vincennes, their friends and colleagues in
the affair of the 13th May are, it seems, appointed to
prefect ir es.
An individual named floret de Gy, who was
marked as one of the most outrageous of the party
who invaded the chamber on the 13th, and against
whom a warrant bad actually been issued, has been
not only left at large, but raised to the office of
Prefect of the Cute d'Or. M. Recart, Minister of the
Interior, being questioned with respect to this appoint-
ment replied that he had only yielded to the exi-
gencies of the members of the executive commission.
Since writing the above I learn that a meeting of
representatives, who have hitherto supported the
government, took place yesterday, at the Palais
Royal, at which it was agreed that they could be no
longer maintained in power. You may, therefore,
expect from day to day to hear of the resignation or
removal of the present executive commission. 'What

SOUTHAMPTON, 1 P.M.—The United Stater, steamer,
from New York the evening of the 10th, arrived at
Cowes this morning. She has landed mails, and pro-
ceeded to Havre with fifty passengers.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.

We have Hamburg letters of the 20th. There was
no news from the seat of hostilities in Schltswig,
but something decisive was expected shortly to take
place. The Russian flea in the Baltic having been
considerably strengthened, it was feared that some
hostile movement was contemplated against Kiel.
Speaking of commercial affairs at Hamburg, our
correspondent says:
I have to re vet the suspension of two highly respectable
houses. The first. of these failures is that of Mews. 0. W.
Arnemann and Son, of Altona, with liabilities supposed to
reach 100,‘,001. It is understood that they have lost largely
in Notway, and also by railway shares. As they were
bankers to Jenny Lind, it was feared that she might be a
kssr; but it now appears that she had virithdrawa hen capital
In time. The Doke of Augustenburg, too, kept an account with
them ; hut whether he is a creditor or a debtor of the firm
has not yet transpired. The other house is that of Messrs.
M. It .binow and Sons, of this city, who were never con-
sidered so wealthy, but equally respectable: they stopped
yesterday. It is understood that they are liners to large
amouats in Jutland, and other parts of Denmark, besides
having locked up a good deal of capital in copper works and
other undertakings. They have got establishments at Leith
awl Olasitow. Ilamour says that there are accommodation
bills afloat between them and Arnemanti's ; if this he true,
English and Scotch houses may be sufferers. Within the last
three or four days, large purchases were made in grain, par.
ticularly wheat, in this market, and shipped for England on
board tne steamers.

INSURRECTION IN PARIS.

GREAT SACRIFICE OF LIFE.

The following appeared exclusively in the Daily
News of this morning :
" A despa•ch, received by electric telegraph from
Dover, from eur correspondent at Boulogne, states
that yesterday the struggle which far some time
past had be, n expected, had commenced in Paris.
The national guard and the troops were fighting with
the people. All was in confusion, and an 'mull
sacrifice of life had taken place.
" We give this, be it observed, from a correspondent
at Boulogne only, where the accounts may have
arrived in an exaggerated shape ; but doubtless it is
not without good fo•mdation."

Since the publication of the foregoing in the Daily
News, all the intelligence which has reached us is
confirmatory of the fact that a collision bAween
the military mid the populace in l'aris took place
yesterday afternoon, attended with a great lons of
life. It was generally believed in Boulogne this
morning, that the Provisional Government bad
resigned at flee o'clock last evening ; that
General Cavaignac had been placed at the head
of the troops of the Hue and of the National
Guard, and that Paris had been declared in
a state of Brio. As far as can be eellected
from the various statements current, the railway be-
tween the terminus at Paris and St. Denis had been
broken up; the people were still (at six o'clock last
evening) fighting with the military; and the third
legion of the National Guard bad suffered severely.
The mob was in great force in the Faubourgs
Poissonikte and St. Martin and the Rue St.
Denis, where they bad thrown up strong bar-
ricades. The slaughter made by the exas-
perated National Guards and the regular troops in
charging the insurgent populace is said to have been
tremendous. Among other reports, it is stated that
M. Achillc Fould, of the eminent banking-house
of Fould and Oppenheim, had been slain by
the mob. It was estimated that not less than MONO
of the ouvriere and the dregs of the population of
Paris and the banlieu were gathered together in the
desperate attempt to make another revolution, sul
recover tho mastery.
We shall publish, in subsequent editions, any far-
e thee news that may arrive.

ANOTHER EFFORT FOR FINANCIAL REFORlL—Yes-
terday, at Liverpool, a meeting of several ot the mossit inflan
u-
ential merchants was held for the purpose of organing
association to bring about a retroschire nt in the public ex-
penditure and a more equitable apportionment of taxation.
By the notice convening
.the meeting, the objects of the
Financial Reform Association it was stated would consist in
directing public opinion to the following principles: —l. A
general retrenchment in the national expenditure. 2. The
revision of the assessed taxee, of the malt direct and of the
excise and stamp duties. 3. The transfer to taxation
ot those imposts which interfere with the indus-
try and limit the subsistence of the people. 4. The
equitable apportionment of all needful taxation.—
Fir. R. Gladstone was called to the chair. He said he he•
tiered all parties admitted the necessity of a change, al-
though there was a tl.fference of opinion as tow hat, and to
what extent, it should be. He accused the government of
apathy and carelesanese in respect to the commercial interests
of the empire.—Mr. J. Mullenenx expressed his approval of
the proposed association, and thought it would strengthen
the hands of the newly-formed parliamentary party.—After
a few remarks from R. V. Yates, Esq., and from Mr. J.
Finch, Mr. Wylie moved a resolution sanctioning the
formation of the society, and nominating a pro-
visional committee. —lt was seconded by Mr. C.
Holland, and carried unanimously. A gentleman
pretest offered an opinion that the promoters of
the movement, beng merchants, had been actuated by
feelings of pride and jealousy, else they would have j,ineil
the national c.,ntederat,on, a society for a similar object,
formed by the tradesmen ot the town, in preference to cell-'.
ing a new association into existence. The objection wee
answered by a negative, and the remark that tte two could
co-operate, and by the division of labour work more eilt.
ciently tigether; besides, the national confederation sought
a revision of the local taxation on principles with which
many gentlemen who would join the present association
could not agree. A vote of thanks was passed to the
chairman, and the meeting adjourned. It is intended to
present a requisition to the mayor. and hold a public meet-
sni shortly in furtherance of the objects which the new
society has in view.
THE CUSTOM-HOC-SE AT MANCHESTER.—At the
Manchester town council, yesterday, Mr. Councillor Ada-
head declared his intention to oppose the payment of any
further sums for the expenses of this establishment from the
corporate fund. He said those expenses hitherto had
CID ounted to the whilst the dues receivable by the cor-
poration, to meet expenditure, were only 9001. He con-
tended that the Use already made of it by the public had
shown that it was of grat utility, and that local funds ought
not to be saddled with the burden of its maintenance. The

COMMERCIAL 4 MARKETS.

MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.
Two o'Clock.—Our stock market was again flush
in the early part of this morning, and one bargain was
actually done as ;high as 83 for money in Consols,
say 1 per cent. above the last prices of
yesterday. The rise was considered, however, to be
more the result of the scarcity of stock, of which a
large amount was sold yesterday for delivery to-day,
than to further purchases of any bulk. Parties
who sold stock for delivery a few days
forward, upon the speculation meanwhile of
lower priers at which they might profitably buy
in, have found it difficult to supply themselves,
and are, therefore, compelled to pay higher for
it. It has been more difficult still to borrow stock for the
temporary purpose. So soon, however, as the money
business of the morning was disposed of, and the
accounts and deliveries adjusted, Consols began to
give way, and have now descended to 82! to ; for
money, and 821 to 1 for time; they are still dearer,
therefore, for immediate transfer than for account.

PROVINCIAL.

LANCASHIRE
AT LIVERPOOL, we learn by a telegraphic despatch
• chartist meting was held, at two o'clock yester-
day ou the sea beach, near Bootle, to take the
opinion of the inhabitants on Lord Joan Russell's de-
claration, that the people do rot went reform, also to
enter a protest against the sentence of Mr. Mitchel. Pre-
cautions were taken by the magistrates, but were
not necessary. The number assembled amounted to about
three thousand. Mr. William Mc Lean presided.. Mr.
Thomas Jones made a violent speech, calling Lord J. Rue-
sell a liar, and designating the government a horde of
brigands, ruffians, and assassins. A collection was made for
the defence of the London chartist leaders. Another meet-
ing was announced for thin day.
A CIIARTIST CAMP M i.ETING, we learn by electric
telearaph, took place yesterday at Blaekstone Edge, a parti-
tion of an extensive edge of bills separating the counties of
Lancashire and Yorkshire, and situated about 16 miles from
Manchester and 6 from Rochdale. The numbers attending
the meeting were about 6,000. A better conducted assemblage
of working people could not well be seen ; many well dressed
women were present and appeared to take great interest in
the proce'dineo. The chair was taken by Mr. Taira, &work-
ing man, from Bacup. Mr. Shackleton, of Halifax, moved:
That the meeting, having heard the declaration of Lord John Rus-
sell, that the people of this country do not writ the people's charter.
throws back the false libel, and declares its firm conviction that no
farther measure of reform wit mere the col sought, Cr meet with the
support of the great body of the people, and pledges heel( never be
relax its efforts until the charter Meows the law of the land.
The resolution having been carried, Mr. G. White, of Brad-.
ford, mowed that the whig government w.is vi:lating the
constitution in attempting to suppress public opinion ; he
exhorted those present to exercise their undoubted right of
procuring arms, and said the systim would never be
any better until *hey forced the government to make
' alterationa—Mr. Webster, of Halifax, moved the third
resolution, condemning the prosecutions instituted by
the whig government as vindictive and disgraceful
The mover's speech was of very icilammatory cha-
ructer.—A police-officer, from Bradford, disguised as a
drover, was, during the meeting, somewhat roughly handled,
and had to take refuge in a stable, and it riguired all 'Mr.
White's exertions to save him from fartlair violence. The
few police present in plain clothes were unnoticed.

FRANKFORT, JUNE B.—At the meeting of the
constituent assembly yesterday, the report that the
Prussian government had recommended various Ger-
man States to assemble their legislative chambers,
in order to counterbalance the above constituent as-
sembly, was officially e6ntradicted. A committee
was appointed ti draw up a report on the affairs of
Bohemia, the Prague Provisional Committee (govern-
ment) having broken off all allegiance with the sove-
reign power in Germany.
PRUSSIA.—In the Berlin constituent assembly on
the 7th, it was announced that 4,000 men would be
employed on a new canal from Berlin to Spandau,
and that measures would be shortly taken to improve
the navigation of the Oder. The discussion on the
address, in answer to the King's speech, had not yet
commenced. According to the Cologne Gazette of the
10th instant, the grea'est excitement still prevails in
Berlin, without any sufficiently BMW& tory cause
being given. Numerous assemblages of working mea

SCOTLAND.

EDINBURGH, J tixz 10.
Last night the police were employed in tearing
down the placards calling a meeting of chartists at
Bruntsfield•links on Monday. It is, there.ore, pro-
bable that the Edinburgh contribution to the simul-
taneous meetings will nut take place. The chartists
are coquetting with the unemployed, but the authori-
ties are in a position to restrain both. At present
there are about 1,000 soldiers in the castle, and 300
cavalry at Piershill, the pensioners and special con-
stables are at hand, and even the scavengers have re.
ceived orders to keep themselves in readiness. But it
is confidently expected that the police will of them-
selves be able to keep down all disturbance.
The case of the Duke of Athol in relation to the
closing up of Glen Tilt is expected to come on before
the Court of Session on Tuesday. The counsel for the
complainers are the Lord Advocate aid Messrs. Inglis
and Burton.

We learn, by electric telegraph from Glasgow,
that a chartist meetintt was held there yesterday
afternoon ; about 5,000 to 6,000 persons were present,
speeches of the usual character were delivered, and
resolutions approving of the people's charter and con-
demnatory- of the sentence of John Mitchel, were
adopted. Though th,• authorities of the city did not
prohibit the meeting, 600 pollee wore stationed in
front of the platform.

FRANC

PARIS, SATURDAY, 630 P.Y.
Last night, at a late hour, a meeting of the mode-
rate majority of the assembly was convoked in the
Salle des Calf;rences, for the express purpose of de-
, liberating how beat to put aside the present govern-
' went, and substitute for it one which would give
more security to the state for the short interval be-
tween this and the proclamation of the constitution.
About 400 members attended, but the freedom of
their discussion was to some extent impeded by the
intrusion of some twenty or thirty members of the
Mountain, who having got wind of this Caucus, came
to hear what was going on. It was agreed on all
hands, however, that the preseat government
could no longer be tolerated. Some proposed
to refuse the grant of one hundred thousand
francs per month, which was demanded for its bureaux,
while others urged the more summary measure of re-
yoking the decree by which the executive commission
was nominated, and appointing at once a ministry,
and a president without a portfolio. Nothing, how-
ever, was definitively settled, and the meeting broke
up with the understanding that the bureaux to-day
would take the matter in hand.
The opinion prevails more and more generally that
the solution of the present state of things will be an
attempt at monarchical reaction, whether in favour of
Louis Napoleon, who has been already saluted, both
in the departments and in the capital, with cries of
" Vivo I'hmpereur ?" or in favour of the Duke of Bor-
deaux, who quietly looks on, and bides his time. At
present, however, 1 think the chances are in favour of
Napoleon. Whichever course the reaction may take,
it will meet with an obstinate, and perhaps bloody,
resistance, from the ultra-democratic and anarchical
parties.
M. U. Lafayette has been elected one of the vice-
presidents of the chamber. He had 301 votes, and M.
Uremieux but 170. A journal having published a list
of rich people, evidently pointing them out as objects
of pillage, this was the subject of much animadversion
in the assembly. M. Flocon complained that mem-
bers of the assembly were also pointed out for assassi-
nation. M. Ilethmont, minister of jus•ice, promised
that the journals should not print such things with
impunity.
As an answer to the vote of the assembly azainst
altroupements, ministers have published a proclama-
tion, which evidently attributes these disturbances to
the bodies of the different royalist pretenders, ra-
ther than to republican anarchists.

FREE TRADE IN IllE PLAIIIOCSE.—The English
actors have petitioned the Queen to forbid French players
to act at Drury-lane. English cordwainers would have
better reason in their petitions against French boots and
shoes; tor, we take it, the French players will tit the tastes
of few ; whereas boots and shoes may be acoommodated to
any wearer. We think the English actor betrays his weakness.
Is he afraid of the superior ability of the French comedian?
Mr. Batty, of the Amphitheatre, showed better courage.
He did not petition against foreign steeds at Drury-lane
lest English piebalds should be over-ridd. u. Again, the
English actor may take to himself this unchristian con-
&dation—it M. Dumas come to Drury-lane, Lc will only
come to spend his money; unless, indeed, he has a bond
of Fortu. e, and may apostrophise her, with the penniless
gambler, '• Oh, Fortune, thou meyest make me Woe, but
thou coast not make me pay r* Why do not English mana-
gers, in their strait, seek the bishops? There is a precedent
for episcopal interference iu the matter of foreign stage ar-
tists. in 1796 the Bishop of Durham, in the House of
Lords, tlreatcoed a motion for an address to the King to
send away foreign artists, who, " by the allurements of the
most indecent attitudes and most wanton theatrical exhibi-
tions, succeeded but too effectually in loosening the morals of
the people." Why does not Mr. Webster, in his case, ad-
dress himself to the Bishop of Exeter i Wo think, however,
that the manager is in no real danger. M. Dumas and
troupe will find the rickets of the English inexorably closed
against them. Drury-lane will be their Waterloo.—Jerrokl's

with highly excited groups. A report had gone
abroad that Mr. Mitchel had been rescued from the
Scourge by a French privateer and conveyed to
America. In what this singular fancy had its origin
I cannot say, but the whole population of the liberties
was in a trance of delight. The morning papers
abated the enthusiasm.
The old established house of Mooney and Sons has
failed. n e cause of the failure is said to be con-
nected with railway speculation. The firm was
largely engaged in the iron, ten, and Baltic trades.
The assets are likely to realise 12s. 6d. in the pound.

STATE OP THE COUNTRY,--The only accounts from the
provinces to day are happily devoid of any interest, save on
the single subject of the harvest, and all the accounts con-
cur in presenting the same favourable accounts of the grow-
ing crops which bavo rejoiced and consoled the country for
the tut four weeks.
THE MILITARY AT NENAOH.—The Nenagh Guardian
gives a widely different amount of the late military riot at
Nenagh from that which we have already heard through a
different source. That journal states that the riot tint
arose in consequence of the preference shown by a Paphinn
nymph for dancing with a red instead of a Iris ze coat. The
latter and the soldier quarrelled, and were joined hy respee-
tive parties of friends. The soldiers were outnumbered and
retired to barracks. These men, the Guardian states, were
in the habit of daily diatributies bread and soup among
'he destitute in Nenagh; but in consequence of the
quarrel when the pcor next day assembled for the usual
dole they got nothing, the soldiers emptying the soup
into the sewer. The journal continues : " f his cirebnistano•
soon reached the ears of a good many, and rekindli d the
fracas that bad previously taken place. Accordingly, on
Tuesday evening, a row of certainly a very alarming nature
took place between the soldiers and about 400 of the towns-
people, Stones were flung in all directions, and so thick
and fast did they fall on the defenceless soldiers, that the
kprctator world imagine they were failing from the clouds.
The soldiers occasionally repulsed their assailants, hut ulti-
mately were obliged to retreat to their barracks. Here a
tremendous volley of stones was hurled at them, when the
men rushed into their rooms, and seized their carbines and
bayonets. Then the excitement became alarming in the ex-
treme—an exasperated soldiery, with muskets und fixed
bayonets, about to rush on the crowd." This, however, the
iGterference of the police authorities, aided by a considerable
body of the force, prevented ; and at 11 p.m. the town lad
resumed its usual quiet. There were no serious injuries.

MEETING AT AYLESBURY.

The Couuty Hall was crowded t 3 excess to take
the sense of the town upon the re form measures of Mr.
Hume. A more triumphant mei ling never was held in
the county of Buckingham. The resolutions were all
adopted unanimously. They affirm d the necessity el rcsi•
dentist suffrage, vote by ballot, triennial parliaments, and
electoral districts, in order to save the country from confu-
sion, promote wink:some legislation, and mete out justico to
the people at large.—Lord Nugent, the liberal member for
the horough, spoke at great 1 ngth. Hu cordially atreed
with the whol. of Mr. flame's proposer, with the excepti m
of the electoral district scheme. But he .au ready to %dead
that point it Le c:uld see how it could be practically
worked out. He urged that the chartests were
very deeply maligned. They bad no deslre to
break the peace. On the contrary, they came for-
ward on the 10th of April to demonstrate their attach•
ment to law and order by becoming precis.' conrables. He
believed that the security of England at this moment
entirely depended upon those parties who had been stigma-
tised as levellers. The time mat approaching whet univer•
sal suffrage could not be withheld trim the people u a
matter of justice.—John H .ughton, Esq., the defeated can
didate at the last election, spoke at length in supp srt of the
focr points.—A petition to the House of Commons was
adopted, which prays " That your honourable house will
carry out some measures resembling those propounded by
the hon. member for Montrote."

IRELAND.

DvsLIN, JONI 13.
The failure of the London chartists to get up a
promenade in London has been noticed by the
evening papers, and excited no surprise. They have
very few sympathisers in Ireland, and even the
Dublin trades, schooled in the lease gymnasium of
O'Connell, look on them as'public dis'urbers.
No person knows what has becomo of Smith
O'Brien. Some say he is in Wicklow•—othars in

Keleher, of Cork, that of the 3,0001. voted for schools
