Hurrah ! near A'cot Heath to ream ;

LIVERPOOL, JUNE 12.—The imports of grain and flour since
last Tuesday have been light, but at the same time the demand
for each article of the trade has been exceedingly limited, and
prices have scarcely varied. In some instances Id. per buThel
less has been accepted for wheat. The crops around us all look
promising, and wheat is just coming into ear. There was a
fair attendance of millers and dealers at our market this
morning. The finer sorts of wheat and flour were quite as
dear as this day se'nnight, with a fair sale, but the secondary
qualities of wheat were Id per bushel cheaper. Oats declined
id per bushel, and oatmeal 6d per load. No change as regards
barley, Leans, and peas. Indian corn was dull, and the de-
mand for Ireland very limited; the best American yellow corn
was offering at 36s per 4801bs, which is a decline of Is per
quarter, but white was held at same prices as Tuesday last, and
not much at present here.
LEEDS, JUNE I2.—There is a good demand for wheat to.
day, at fully last week's prices, and in some instances a trifling
advance has been obtained, and the trade looks more healthy.
There is a retail trade for oats and beans, at late rates.
DALKEITH MEAL MARKET, JUNE 11.—At this day's
market there were 157 bags oatmeal, 7of barleymeal, and 1

Oxford .** ' Orion Boat Club . 6
J. Class ...
The Thames men took the towing-path side, and the
lead immediately after the start. The Oxonians went
"
to the other side, and never did a pair of gentlemen row
better or keep more even steerage. The rowing of the
other pair was not so perfect, nor was their st.erage.
The Thames, however, were the better men in the race,
and ultimately won by two or three lengths.
THE LADIES' CHALLENGE PLATE.
GREAT EIGHT-OARED MATCH, GENTLEMEN AMATEURS.
Oxford—The St. John of Malta ... 1
Cambridge—Trinity Boat Club ••• •••
Oxford —The Orion Boat Club ••
0
This, like all boat- races of the patrician character, was
looked forward to with the most lir. ly degree of inte-
rest.. It was anticipated that it would afford a treat of
no ordinary character, nor were there the least grounds
fur alleging that the expectations had been overrated;
if was, from first to last, a fine and finished struggle,
reflecting as much credit upon the vanquished as upon
the victor.
The attendance of spectators at this time had slowly
but vastly increased, and, as the three crews rowed
towards the starting-place, hundreds of gentlemen
anxious to witness the whole of the interesting event
lined the meadows, and repaired to that portion nearly
facing the starting-place, with a determination, which
they subsequently carried into effect, of accompanying
the race. Cambridge took the Bucks shore, the St. John
of Malta the Berko, and the Orion in the midshi`ps. They
went off very evenly, and at a good pace, the whole ex-
hibiting great sty le as rowing men. On nearing the
Barn, Cambridge and the St. John of Malta were neck
and neck, but Orion was getting the worst of it; the pace
being too good for them, and dropping graduailir astern
until about half-way, when, notwithstanding their very
strenuous efforts, they were clearly shaken off. A fierce
struggle now ensued between the other two, with the
Orion still at work, as though they might outlast
their rivals. The rowing of the Trinity and the
St. John of Malta was not only most determined,
but for some time it was most questionable even
which could take a lead. They were oar and oar to
the lower poplars, when the St. John began to show
a slight front. The Trinity, amidst the deafening ac-
clamations of " Well pulled," put on another spurt and
again collared their opponents, making their boat over-
lap half that of the leading party; but with all the steam
they could put on, they were unable to decrease the dis-
tance above a foot or so more, and the St. John won by
a third of a length, Orion only being a length and a halt
behind.
SCULLERS' CONTEST for the Makepeace Silver Wherry
and Sculls, for Gentlemen of the vicinity of Henley.
FIRST HEAT.

above, but was withdrawn.
SECOND _HEAT.
Mr. A. lye (red and white) ... ... 1
Mr. B. Moore (white) ... . . 2
Mr. G. Avery (light blue) ...
It was a very capital race throughout; the two stern.
most men rowed very gallantly, Mr. Moore being a good
second.
The sports are to conclude this day, when the chief
features will be a great eight oared race, a four, with
the final heats of the sculls and pair oars, which will no
thubt afford a fine day's play.
SECOND DAY.
The sport was resumed ye4terday, at three in the
afternoon, and continued up to a late hour in the even-
ing. The assemblage was even greater than that of the
previous day, and as the hour approached for the com •
mencement of the raving the greatest excitement pre-
sailed.
The sport was of a first-rate description, and created
considerable speculations. The Grand Challenge Cup
and Stewards' Challenge Cup races were sufficiently
attractive in themselves; but to these were added the
concluding heats for the diamond sculls, silver wherries,
and Makepeace's wherry, with other races and matches,
which, altogether, served to give this the appellation of
the grand day.
THE RACE FOR THE STEWARDS' CHALLENGE CUP, WITH
FOUR-OARED BOATS.
London—The Leander Club ... ... (Crimson) 1
Messrs. Boville, Sherwood, Howard, WOostenhome,
stroke; Webber, steerer.
Cambridge—Second Trinity Boat Club (Light blue) 0
Messrs. Jones, Wray, Halleyne, Waldingham, stroke.
This was a most exciting event. It is now eight years
since a Leander crew have appeared at Henley, although
its individual members have contended in other matches;
and it war not until the Ist inst., on the occasion of the
club entertaining his Royal Highness Prince Henry of
the Netherlands at dinner, that the Leander determined
to contend at this regatta. They had, therefore, only
had eight days' practice, and although evidently a crew
of great capabilities, were not in that extraordinary con-
dition of training upon which the club so clinch prides
itself. Amongst the Cambridge men were 'Mr. Wray,
vie stroke oar in the gallant victory over Oxford this
spring, and others well calculated to maintain the aquatic
celebrity of their college. Betting was 5 to 4 on the
Leander, those who are well acquainted with aquatic
matters considering that their opponents were so under-
boated as to give the others, apart from any private
opinion of experience, &c.,
a n
turn the fortunes of the day.
The Cambridge men won the toss for choice of sta-
tion, and took the towing-path advantage
side,
their which
opponents might
being near the Bucks shore. For an instant only they
seemed to be together, and then the Leanders began to
draw away, and in a dozen strokes were clear. The
Cambridge men endeavoured to overhaul their oppo-
nents, but in vain; it was perfectly obvious that the
report with respect to their boat was not without foun-
dation. She was quite unfit for men of their weight,
and shipped water at every stroke. At Newenham the
Leanders shot the water two lengths ahead of their op-
ponents, and led in their course. The Cambridge men,
notwithstanding the floating ballast on board, made a
further effort to overhaul their opponents, but abandoned
the attempt on nearing the Poplars, where they had
taken in a great deal of water.
FINAL HEAT FOR THE DIAMOND SCULLS.
London—Mr. Northman (Crimson) 1
Cambridge—Mr. C. Begot
...(Light Blue) 0
Mr. Begot took the Bucks side, Northman being on
the towing-path shore, and a Mr. Norman in the middle.
Mr. Begot went away with a slight lead, and it was a
most gallant raco for nearly a mile. At one period Mr.
Begot had a lead of upwards of two lengths, but the
fine even working and listing qualities of his opponent
were finely exemplified. On nearing Newenham Mr.
Begot, whose arm was beginning to go, could not shoot
into his opponent's water, but fell off, after a plucky
effort to mend his position. On nearing the Upper Pop-
lars Mr. Net thman went well away, and won by three
or four lengths.

This was, as on the previous day, a most desperate race
throughout, and with a similar result, owing to some cir-
cumstances which we are about to explain. It had been
alleged that had the Second Trinity the best station, the
result would be different from the struggle of the previous
day; and so strong was the impression in their favour
that, although 5 and 6 to 4 had been bet on St.
John (Wadham) before the draw for places, Trinity
were backed at even after it was found they had been'
fortunate in this respect. Cambridge took the Berks,
or towing-path side, St. John was next, and then came
the Orion. A beautiful start was effected, which was
followed by one of the most excellent races on record—
stroke succeeded stroke with amazing rapidity, and the
boats were as level as at the moment of starting. Orion
then began to fall off a little, bat putting on a fine spurt
were again almost as level as at starting. In the bay of
Newenham they were still at work as though endowed
with superhuman 'vigour, when, in the heart of the race,
the Cambridge party, to their own material disadvan-
tage, as it appeared, put the head of their boat over to-
wards the other side a trifle too much, and fouled the
St. John, whose course they might also have been said
to have taken. The foul was very slight, and the race
was resumed with the most unceasing game, and the
Trinity came in with their nose about three feet in ad-
vance of the other, amidst the most deafening cheers
The Orion was not more than a length behind. The.
race was decided by the umpire in favour of the St. John
of Malta, on the grounds above alluded to.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

---
We have received the Paris papers of Wednesday
The debate on the Italian question closed on Tues-
day, and a profound sensation was created by the
close of the speech of M. LEDRU ROLLIN in reply
to the defence of M. ODILON BARROT. After having
quoted the decisions of the Constituent Assembly on
the occasion on which the money was voted for the
expedition to Civita Vecchia and on the 7th of May,
after having quoted the articles of the Constitution
which have been violated by the PRESIDENT of the
Republic and by his Ministers in undertaking this
war against the Roman Republic after having
recalled to M. ODILON BARROT his own solemn
pledge that the French army should not attack the
Roman Republic, M. LEDRU ROLLIN concluded
with these Wards—" The Constitution has been
violated ; we will defend it by every means in our ,
power, even by arms." This declaration was received
with shouts of applause by the Left, which for some
time drowned the groans and cries which arose from
the supporters of the Ministry, and a scene of great
confusion followed. The President declared that the
words of M. LF.DRU RoLLIN were a scandalous breach
of order. General BEDEAU said that the majority
was sovereign, and that he could only obey the ma-
jority ; and M. 'NIERS exclaimed, that as the cry
"Aux armes had been uttered, it was beneath the
dignity of the Assembly to _continue the discussion.
The cloture was demanded by several voices on the
right, but on the question being put the decision appeared
doubtful, and the discussion was continued. Three
orders of the day motivg were proposed, one
approving of the conduct of the Ministry,
another by M. CREMIEUX, to the following effect :
" The Legislative Assembly, in rendering homage to
the bravery of our army, declares that the order given
on the 29th May is contrary to the decision of the
Constituent Assembly proclaimed on the 16th of May,
and orders that the hostilities against Rome shall im-
mediately cease." And the following by M. ADELS-
WARD :—" The Legislative National Assembly,
adopting the policy of the Constituent Assembly,
invites the Ministry to conform itself to it."
It was evident from the disposition of
i the Assem-
bly that, had the Ministry persevered n putting to
the vote the resolution expressing approval of their
conduct, they would have been in a minority, and
accordingly one of their friends, in order to save
them from defeat, proposed the order of the day pure
and simple, which of course had the precedence of
the other propositions, and on a division taking place
the numbers were—
NumbPrs of voters ••• ••• 564
Absolute majority... ... ... 283
The order of the day pure and simple 361
Against it ... ... 203
Majority ... ... —l5B
The order of the day pure and simple was conse-
quently declared to be adopted.
A Voice—And the proposition of impeachment?
The President—lt will follow its course agreeably to
the regulations of the Assembly.
The sitting was brought to a close amidst consider-
able agitation.
It will be seen that the Opposition mustered in
much greater strength on this than on any former
occasion ; hitherto they have never divided more than
`lBO, on Monday they were 203; on the other hand,
the Ministerial majority were greatly diminished;
several of their hitherto staunch supporters were so
disgusted by their Jesuitical conduct on the Roman
affair that they retired from the Assembly before the
question was put, in order not to be compromised by
voting for the Ministers, while at the same time they
did not choose to vote against them. Among those
who voted in the minority are MM. NAPOLEON
BONAPARTE, PIERRE BONAPARTE, General CATAIG-
NAC, BIXIO, BAUCRART, FERDINAND DR LASTEYRIE,
VICTOR LEFRANC, and several other members of the
Moderate Republican party.
At the sitting of the Assembly yesterday, M.
LACROSSE the Minister of Public Works, proposed
that the Assembly should at once resolve what was to
be done with the mise en accusation proposed by M:
LEDRU ROLLIN, and that for the purpose it should
immediately retire into its bureaux td"name a com-
mittee to examine the proposition This motion wis
at once adopted, and the House consequently adjourned
into its bureaux.

The following is the text of the proposed decree of
impeachment :
" The undersigned representatives of the people pro-
pose to the National Assembly the following decree ;
they demand urgency and an immediate reference to the
bureaux. Whereas Art. sof the preamble of the Con-
stitution says—' The French R-public respects foreign
nationalities, as it intends to have its own respected by
others;' and whereas Art. 54 of Chapter 5 of the Consti-
tution says—' The President watches over the defence
of the State, but he cannot understake any war without
the consent of the National Assembly;' and whereas
the first paragraph of Article 88 of the Constitution
declares—' rhe President of the Republic, the Minis-
ters, the agents, and persons holding public authority
are responsible each in what concerns him, for all the
acts of the Government and of the administration;' con-
►idering also, that the expeditionary corps under the
order of General Oudinot has been, in contradiction to
the votes of April 17, and of May 7, of the Constituent
Assembly directed against the liberty of the Roman
people; considering likewise that these facts constitute
the crime of the violation of paragraph 5 and Art. 51,
already quoted, the National Legislative Assembly de-
crees that the citizen Louis Napoleon Bonaparte, Presi-
dent of the Republic, and the citizens 0. Barrot, Buffet,
Lacrosse, Rulhieres, de Tracy, Passy, Drouyn de Lhuys
and de Falloux, his Ministers, are impeached for having
violated the Constitution."

(Here follow 142 signatures.)
It is evident that this impeachment is but the com-
mencement of a serious movement for the preserva-
tion of the Republic from the treason of those reac-
tionary hypocrites, who, JUDAS like, have accepted,
solely to betray her, but nothing will be done rashly.
The National has the following remarkable passage :
We plainly perceive that it (the Government)
would fain at once force the people into the streets—
it would fain crush under the weight of cannon-shot
both their protestations against the violation of the
Constitution, and the Republic which they have
created. But the people will not fall into the
trap thus laid for them by the most detestable pas-
sions. They will calculate the day and the hour for
the punishment of those who insult their power and
their will, and who compromise the national honour
and interest. When the measure shall be filled the cup
of iniquity will flow over, and justice will be done in
the name of the Constitution.' In the same journal
we find a notice requesting the members of the Con-
stituent Assembly at present in Paris to meet yester-
day at noon in the chapel of the Palais National.
The following declaration was published yesterday
by the representatives of the Mountain
" To the People, the National Guard, and the Army—
" The majority of the Legislative Assembly has passed
to the order of the day on the affairs of Italy. By this
vote the majority has connected itself with a policy
which violates the Constitution. We have brought in
an Act of Impeachment 'against the Executive rower.
We shall sustain it this day. We are desirous of ex-
hausting all the means which the Constitution places in
our hands. Let the people continue to have faith in their
representatives, as their representatives have faith in
them."
The Democratic papers also publish the following
declaration, dated Paris, Monday, June 14, one in
the morning :
" We, the editors of the Republican press—we, the
members of the Democratic Socialist Committee—an-
nounce to the people to hold themselves read., to do
their duty. The Mountain will do theirs to the end.
We have their promise to that effect. Five representa-
tives have been delegated by them to see what is to be
done. All the Republicans will rise like one man.
"The Members of the Republican Press; the Mem-
bers of the Democratic Socialist Committee."
There will, however, be no immediate outbreak in
Paris ; the popular leaders are too wise to afford to
General CLIANGARNIER and his Legitimatist co-
adjutors the opportunity they so_ ardently_ desire, of
bathing in the blood of the people. The rising will
commence in the departments.
The Revolution Democratique et Sociale says—
' The die is cast; all Paris will respond, as it did in
July and in February, to the cry uttered by M. Ledru
Rollin in the name of the Mountain and of France.
The traitors who form the majority of the Assembly
have violated the Constitution, and sanctioned by an
infamous vote the treason of M. Bonaparte and his Mi-
nisters; and with the same blow they have destroyed
the mandate that the people had the weakness to give to
them, to defend the Republic and the Constitution;" and
it closes with the following words:—" From one end to
another of France let the good citizens rise. The south
and the east are two advanced guards only waiting for
the signal; they shall have it to morrow, with the mani-
festoes of the Mountain.-
The inhabitants of the departments of the
south and east are almost to a man republi-
can, and it is to those departments that the troops
have been removed, which have been " weeded"
from the garrison of Paris by General
CHANGARNIEL In those departments, therefore, we
may expect to hear of the commencement of the out•
break, and when General C_BANGARNIER shall have
been compelled to weaken the Parisian garrison, by
detaching large bodies of troops to these departments,
to put down the insurrection then, and not until then,
will the day and- the hour have arrived, when in
Paris justice will be done io the name of the Con-
stitution. In the meantime, in order to show the
state of the, public, mind in Paris, we insert the fol-
, lowing protestations, all emanating, be it remem-

THE NATIONAL GUARDS OF THE 3D LEGION TO THEIR

COLONEL.

" Colonel,—Convinced that the army of Italy is acting
against the wishes of France, against the desire of the
Constituent Assembly, and is violating the Constitution
by the will of a Government which"betrays the Republic
and liberty ;
" Convinced that the deposits of the C mstitution and
the rights which it confers are confided to the patriotism
of all citizens; _ _

Convinced that it is time to apply a remedy to the
evil, and to avoid by wise and prompt measures the mis-
fortunes uf a civil, war; . _

" The undersigned request you to immediately as-
semble the legion to protest with that energy which
becomes free men, before the Legislative Assembly and
the Executive power, against the fratricidal war carried
on against Rome, in violation of Articles 5 and 54 of the
Coustitution.

(Here follow the signatures.)
TO THE COLONEL OF THE 7TH LEGION.
" Citizen Colonel,—The under.igned National Guards
of the 7th Legion invite you to concert with your col-
leagues of other legions in order to offer a protection
against the disgraceful violation of Articles 5 and 54 of
The Constitution."

THE ELECTORAL TYPOGRAPHICAL COMMITTEE. TO THE

"The violation of Articles 5-and 54 of the Constitu-
tion, is manifest from the impious attack of the Ereueh
army on the Roman Republic.
" In face of a Government which fails in its duty, lit
is for the citizens to do theirs. -

the Constitution being violated. Act, then—the people

PROTEST OF THE SCHOOLS.
" Citizens,—The Constitution of the French Republic
has been violated by the Legislative Government.
" The Royalist majority of the Legislative Assembly,.
by its order of the day, renders itself an accomplice in
this treason, and puts itself without the pale of the law._
" The struggle is now between the Republics and its
eternal enemies.

" The minority of the Assembly, the Mountain, alone
supports the inviolability of its rights.
"All citizens possessing Republican hearts and feelings
ought to support it in the accomplishment of this sacred
duty.
" Citizens ot, the Schools of Paris, who took the ini-
tiative in the protest of February, be you the first to
rally round the constitutional flag to the unanimous cry
of Vive la Republique.' "

It was remarked that M. DUPAURE was not present
on Monday during the discussion in the Assembly.
It is said that General CAVAIGNAC will be
appointed to the command of the Army of the Alps.
The Debats contains the following further details
relative to the affair of the ad at Rome, dated the
evening of the 4th :
" I take advantage of a courier which leaves this even-
ing to give,you a few details of the affair of yesterday.
At three o'clock two columns of 2.000 men, each under
the direction of Gen. Regnault de Saint Jean d'Angely,
received orders to take possession of the Villa Pam-
fili. The firing was very sharp, and we were obliged to
take and retake, as many as six times, a fortified house
adjoining it. We made 200 prisoners, and it
is said that the enemy had 1,000 men
killed and wounded. Our loss has been 10 killed,
and about 200 wounded. Thinking that we intended to
attempt an entry by the Porte Saint Pancrace' from
which we are distant about 600 yards, a constant fire of
shells has been kept up on us. The engineers will this
evening open the trenches, and then we shall be less in-
commoded. In the meantime we pass the night ex-
tended on the grass, and ready to repulse every sortie
which Garibaldi may make.
" A well directed resistance may impede our entrance
for ten days, but the worst part of our work is over.
Once the breaching batteries are in positiOn, the
foreigners who are fighting against us will see the in-
utility of further efforts, and the real inhabitants of
Rome will probably open the gates to us. Mazzini.en-
deavours to make the people believe that we are in their
favour; but the attack of yesterday, and the firing
which has continued to-day, most tend to undeceive
them. To-morrow perhaps our batteries will complete
the affair."

It appears that the French lost in this affair up
wards of 5,000 men, and to add to the shame of those
who have projected and carried out this unfortunate
expedition, the Austrians, the Spaniards, and the
Neapolitans are advancing, as they themselves state,
to assist the French.

Madrid journals of the 7th have arrived.
A Madrid letter of the 7th says, that one of the

had left for Gaeta, with dispatches directing, it was
believed, that the Spanish expedition should imme-
diately return. ' The Catalonian deputation on the
Tariff Bill had had two interviews with the Minister
of Finance, in the course of which assurances which
on the whole were satisfactory to them were given.

WURTEMBURG.

STUTGARDT, JUNE B.—Last night Struve and his
party, composed of about 600 Swiss and other
foreigners, made an attempt to overthrow the Pro-
visional Government. They held a public meeting,
at which it was determined to proclaim the Red Re-
public, if within the space of twenty-four hours all
their demands were not complied with. Time de-
mands of course tended to the energetic enforcement of
revolutionary principles. This morning, at six o'clock,
the generale was beaten in every quarter to assemble
the National Guard, which immediately hastened to
the square of the chateau, where it took up a favour-
able position. In a couple of hours after a body of
about 400 Swiss marched into the square, and drew
up in front of the National Guards. After a good
deal of parley, in the midst of which the 3d Regi-
ment of infantry came, the Swiss promised to leave
the city.
Flys o'Cr..ocn, r.m.—The generale is now again
beaten. The Swiss have refused to quit the city. At
this moment Becker, the Commandant of the
National Guard, and Struve, one of the S wiss Legion,
have been arrested. Twelve cannons are drawn up
anti mounted in. the square. The Swiss have barri-
caded the streets leading to the barracks; they
promise to quit the city if Becker and Struve are
liberated; they are to be sent off to Heildelburg by
a special train. Struve is to go with them.
In the sitting of the German National Assembly
at Stuttgardt on the 10th, resolutions were adopted,
declaring that Baden and the Bavarian Palatinate were
placed under the protection and guarantee of the
Empire, in their efforts for the execution of the Con-
stitution. In the debate which took place several
members declared that the Assembly was determined
not to encourage Republican movements, but to
labour for the establishment of the Constitution.
M. VOGT, a member of the Regency, declared that
