TO MADEMOISELLE JENNY LIND.
Enchanting angel ! with fair spacious brow,
With smiles entrancing, with bright eagle eye,
Before whom Music's sons delight to bow,
Art thou indeed cold Sweden's child?
Or com'st thou from some higher sphere? to show
To men how vain their greatest efforts are,
Compared with thy pure tones, that cease not on the

brains,
Tho' thy sweet voice is still—like Eve's first star,
When set, is bright again to fancy's eye—
No; thou art merely mortal, and we mar
With such strange thoughts the glory of thy strains.
FANATICO PER LA MIISICA.

Mrs. Hudson gave her first ball at Albert-gate, on
Tuesday evening, on which occasion she was honoured
with the presence of nearly 600 leading members of the
fashionable world. The Conde de Montemolin, accom-
panied by his Royal Highness the Infante Don Fer-
nAndo of Spain, honoured the reunion with his presence.
The Duke, of Wellington was among the earliest to
arrive. His Grace was loudly cheered on alighting from
his carriage. The guests arrived in rapid succession
from half
-past eleven until nearly one o'clock. .

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.

We fear that it is but too true that M. DE LAMAR-
TINE has given in his adhesion to the doctrines of
Communism, and that if he does not go quite the
length of M. PRUDHON, and declare that all property
is a theft, he goes quite far enough to make all pro-
perty valueless, by weakening the tenure by which it
is held, and to render industry impossible, by giving
to the idle the right of seizing in the proceeds of the
labour of the industrious. It appears from the Con-
stitutionnel that he has actually pledged himself to
the appointment of a Communist Minister, under the
denomination either of Minister of Progress, as was
proposed by Louis BLANC, or Minister of Labour, or
Minister of Fraternal Institutions, as the ex-club
petitioners proposed to call him--in short, to the
creation of. that Ministerial department which was
demanded by Louis BLANC, and refused by the As-
sembly. The consideration which M. LAMARTINE
is to receive may be gathered from the following
paragraph which appears in La Presse:—
." SHORT DIALOGUE.

~ .
4, Matters must be allowed to grow worse !—Where-
fore ?

" Because only one way is left to us for retaining the
power which is slipping away.
" What way ?
" To render the dictatorship of General Cavaignac
necessary.
"But he is without decision and weak minded.
" What matter, people do not know that, and his
weakness is supplied by 60,000 troops in Paris and the
suburbs. We are only waiting an occasion, and we shall
not have long to wait."

Al. LAMAETINE3 as an old aristocrat, has always
been actuated by that hatred of the middle classes
which is so characteristic of his " order," and therefore
he is by no means opposed to the reorganization of
the Blanqui and other clubs, which is now going on.
These men declare their intention of at once finishing
with the bourgeoisie, a process which it is well known
the aristocracy and the parti-pretre consider as
necessary to the restoration of the old tyranny
which France shook off in 1789. As a
part of this plan the most atrocious libels are
placarded about Paris denouncing to the popular ven-
geance all those who dare to hint that it is proper
that the persons maintained at the public expense in
the Ateliers Nationaux (among whom are several
thousand escaped convicts) should be either dismissed
or forced to labour. M. GOUDCIIAUX was denounced
in this manner on Wednesday. If anything were
wanting to prove how destructive to all industry are
these Ateliers Nationaux, the statement of Al. La-
LaNNE, who succeeded Al. EMILE Tnomas as director
of these institutions, would be sufficient. There are
maintained here 100,000 workmen ; 50,000 men are
applying for admittance, yet some trades—the hat-
makers, for instance—are actually in want of work-
men ; but, in the true spirit of aristocratic idleness,
these persons prefer living on 30 sous a day without
labour to earning four times that sum by their honest
industry. The Executive propose as a plan which
will thin the Ateliers, that all the recipients of relief
between the ages of 17 and 25 shall be drafted into
the army or dismissed.

The Government has protested against the organi-
zation proposed by the King of PRUSSIA for the
Duchy of Posen.

The Jtfoniteur publishes a decree dismissing M.
Rossi, the late ambassador at Rome, from the pro
fessorship of constitutional law in the faculty of law
of Paris.

M. NAPOLEON BONAPARTE, the member of the Na-
tional Assembly, whose name has been put forward as
a candidate for the colonelcy of the 2d Legion of the
National Guard of Paris, has written to decline the
honour, on the ground that he does not consider the
position of a representative compatibie with that of
commander of an armed force.

Prince Louis NAPOLEON has been elected colonel
of the 4th Legion of the banlieue of Paris.
The last accounts received in Paris from Gueret
and Niimes state that tranquillity had been perfectly
restored at both these places. The number of killed
at the former place is 22.
Some apprehensions of an emeute were entertained
yesterday in consequence of the refusal of the work-
men in the Ateliers Nationaux either to volunteer into
the army or to return to their departments. Dele-
gates from the clubs have been among them, urging
them to an outbreak, and promising them assistance
to destroy the bourgeoisie. Those of the ouvriers,
12,000 in number, who had agreed to return to their
departments, have now positively refused to quit
Paris. It is supposed that the Ledru-Rollin and
Lamartine section of the Executive, whose complicity
with the transactions of the 17th April and 13th of
May is now scarcely doubtful, are secretly fostering
an outbreak on the part of the ouvriers, in order to be
enabled to keep power in their own hands, and to
avoid the necessity of producing their accounts to the
National Assembly.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs has laid before
the Finance Committee a statement of the position of
the public Treasury on the 24th February and the
31st May, 1848. From this it appears that the
amount of specie in the central caisse of the Trea-
sury, on the 24th of February, was 8,516,1271., and
on the 31st of May, 11,413,906 f. The money at
the credit of the Treasury in the Bank of France
on the 24th of February was 126,011,724 f., and on
the 31st of May, 18,849,546 E ; good bills due to the
Treasury on the 24th of February, 56,961,130 f.; and
on the 31st of• May, 38,492,134 f.
BOURSE.—Pems, THURSDAY, JUNE 22.
THREE OTLOCK.—Business was again in a state of
utter stagnation to-day, and the Bourse was almost de-
serted. There were several rumours afloat, at the ter-
mination of business, of disturbances among the work-
men in the Ateliers Nationaux, which bad the effect of
bringing down the Rentes.
