General Dr ICALnirurs, ex-peer of Prance, has
been returned for the Upper Loire., and M. Cipol-

BOLLE, the editor of the Siede, for Mayenne.
The Committee of Justice rejected on Saturday a
proposition for revising the decrees of transportation
pronounced against the insurgents.
Energetic measures were taken on Thursday, Fri-
day, and Saturday to maintain the tranquillity of
Paris. It appears that some persons had organized a
species of ovation in favour of Prince Louts NAPO-
LEON, which was to consist of a numerous procession
along the Boulevards to the Hotel of the President of
the Executive Government, demanding the repeal of
the law of banishment, brought temporarily into
execution after the late elections. Thanks to the firm
attitude assumed by the Government, and the active
measures which it took, the parties who had designed
this manifestation, were induced to renounce it.

M. GRANDMENIL, M. CAIIAIGNE, and M. RIXTN,
arrested in consequence of the affairs of June, have
just been set at liberty.

Accounts have been received from Martinique of
the result of the elections, which took place there in
August. M. BISSETTE, M. PORY-PAPY, and M.
SCHCELCHER were returned as deputies, and the sub-
stitutes chosen were M. MAZULIME and M. FRANCE.
MM. BISSETTE, PORY-PAPY, and MAZULIME are
men of colour. The first, who has resided a very
long time in Paris, is known for the activity which he
displayed to hasten, so far as depended on him, the
abolition of slavery. M. PORY•PAPY was nominated
Mayor of Saint Pierre after the events of February
He was very influential and very popular. his po-
litical opinions are, it is said, very far advanced, and
he will take his place among the Socialists. We
have no details respecting M. MAZTJLIME. As to M.
SCWELCHER, principal instrument of the enfranchise-
ment of the slaves, he was naturally designed to the
choice of the newly emancipated. M. FRANCS, a
white, is an ex-officer of gendarmerie, who has pub-
lished a work containing extracts from the proces-
verbaux drawn up on visits made to colonial habits•
tions during the time of slavery. These proces-
verbaux set forth the acts of violence committed by
the masters on the blacks of the ateliers. In the
session of 1847, M. LEDRU ROLLIN, having ascended
the tribune to give an account of the miseries of sla-
very, borrowed the principal facts which he quoted
from the book of M. FRANCE.

SEPT. 17.—The Minister of Foreign Affairs has
sent the following circular, under date of the 17th, to
the Danish Ambassadors resident abroad :
" The reports that Denmark had declared itstif
ready to make specified modifications in the armistice
concluded and ratified with Prussia under date of
26th August, did not excite any particular. attention
on the part of the Danish Government, so long as
they were confined to the German journals. It was
confidently expected that they would not find credit
either at home or abroad.

" As it has now, however, appeared that a fraction of
the National Assembly of Frankfort founds their re-
ception or non-reception of the armistice upon this
report, I am commanded to request you to declare to
the Government where you are accredited, that there
was no intention whatever of such modifications,
either as proposed on the one side, or as concession on
the other,

" Very indescribable confusion would Jake place if
the above-named Assembly, misled by erroneous
premises, should adopt a middle course between
adopting and refusing it. The Danish Government,
therefore, considers it important to set aside every
idea that it has given occasion to such ambiguity or
uncertainty.
"The Danish Government thinks itself justified in
demanding that those powers which assumed the
right to subject the legality of the concluded armis-
tice to their final decision may arrive at a clear
result, either to accept the armistice for the purpose
of conscientiously fulfilling it, as has been done on
the part of Denmark, or of rejecting it.

" The armistice is an act of reconciliation with the
duchies. Its object is an attempt to settle the diffe-
rences which have arisen between the inhabitants of
those countries and our own. This desirable end
cannot be obtained so long as that party in the Du-
"hies which desires the prolongation of the Nvar, has
the hope of carrying out its plans by aid of the Na-
tional Assembly. This is another motive why the
Danish Government earnestly desires a definitive set-
tlement on the part of Germany. You will as soon
as possible make a communication to this effect to the
Government where you are accredited."
The Berlin. che Zeitung says that in case Prussia
will not ratify the remaining conventions with Den-
mark in the Duchies, the Danish army will forth-
with occupy Schleswig, and blockade the harbours of
Holstein and the Canal.

FLENSBURG, SEPT. 2 l .—We have just heard with
astonishment that our magistrates have received a
notification from Count MOLTKE, JOIIANNSEN,
Professor PAULSON, and IIAusEN, that they will
arrive here to-morrow, and assume the functions of
Provisional Government on the part of Denmark.
Yesterday an address was got up with 500 signatures,
to send to Frankfort an unequivocal remon-
strance from Flensburg. A second communication
says that Count MOLTKE and his coadjutors are not
expected till the 26th. The Provisional Government
and General BONIN were immediately informed of
this intention, and strong detachments of troops wil
be sent to Flensburg for the purpose of maintaining
the peace, which is seriously threatened by the ex-
pected arrival of MOLTKE. The same letter states
that Lord PALMERSTON has addressed a very serious
letter to the Danish Government, which it is hoped
will be successful in bringing it to reason.
Count MOLTKE and his coadjutors have issued a
proclamation dated Sonderburg, stating that in con-
formity with the armistice concluded between Den-
mark and Prussia, they form the immediate commis-
sion for the government of the Duchies.

_ .
They promise to make careful provision for the
people, by the encouragement of industry and piety,
and command the authorities and officials in all the
districts to make their reports to them as the only
legitimate authority of the Duchies.

The subject was to be brought before our Assembly
to-day, at Kiel, and this unheard-of presumption of
the Danes to have received its due rebuke. It may
likewise be expected that Prussia will protest ener-
getically against the inauguration of this immediate
commission. The order of the day could not, how-
ever, come on. The Assembly was in a state of
great excitement, partly on account of the melancholy
intelligence from Frankfort, and more especially be-
cause information had just been brought that orders
had been received for the dismantling and disarming
of our strand batteries, and especially the fortress of
Friedreiksart. Count REVENTLOW offered to proceed
immediately to Schleswig, and in the name of the
Assembly to negotiate with General BoNIN and Col.
B.►NDISSEN for the revocation of those measures.—

and 'English at Naples remitted notes to the f 3 atn e
effect. These proceedings greatly annoyed the Nea-
politan Cabinet ; they saw in it only ;.n expedient
to throw an obstacle in the way of the voluntary
submission which had already commenced in several
towns aad provinces of Sicily. But what raised the
surprise and the mortification of the Government was
that the Russian Minister came and advised it to
accept the propositions of the French and English
Ministers. The embarrassment of our rulers was
great. They replied that they could not conceive
why Admiral BAUDIN, who did not represent France
at the Neapolitan Court, should take on himself to
make the first movement in such an affair; that they
could not comprehend why the representatives of
France and England should now interfere, after
having made a declaration of neutrality, &c. In fine,
the Cabinet of Naples confined itself to giving an
evasive reply, and the question now, therefore, is to
know whether the French and English Governments
will be satisfied with it.

The QUEEN MOTHER died on the 13th, at the
royal residence at Portici. Her funeral was to take
place at the Church of St. Claire, on the Monday
following.
