amicable veteran HaysAu—lnd the principles of
moral force been duly inculcated by these beneficient
apostles upon the popular mind—might Lave fared
more gently at the hands of the Bankside avengers,
and the friend of ROTHSCHILD, the pet of Printing
House-square, been spared the over-warm tickling
of carters' whips, and the tingling taps of coalies'
fantails. In such fields let them expatiate, and we
can safely promise them numerous and applauding
audiences, provided the Ojibbeway be specially re-
tained ; but until they can succeed in convincing us
that the bastions, the guns, and the steamers of
Cherbourg are but pasteboard toys, or the mere
phantasies of a diseased imagination, we must beg
leave to decline being gulled by the professors of
Peace Congressism, any more than by those of Sab-
batarianism, Puseyism, or any other such humbug
of the day.

Elated as Louis NAPOLEON must have felt as he
viewed the magnificently stern array which wel-
comed him as the First Magistrate of France,
with the thunder of its countless brazen throats of
war, he cannot fail to have remarked, that although
received with respect and warmth, no indication of
an imperial spirit was manifest among the marine
on this momentous occasion. There was no dis-
respect or dislike to the nephew of the great EMPEROR
—far from it—but the evidence of a feeling perfectly
in accordance with that for which we are willing to
give full credit to the PRESIDENT, namely, the im-
policy, nay, insanity, of snatching at the diadem of
empire by a coup cr ital. We believe Louis NAPOLEON
BONAPARTE to be a man of truth, as he is of honour,
kindliness, and courage ; and we accept his disavowal
at Lyons of any such culpable design as the candid
emanation of his mind ; but his ear may be
abused by intriguers, or by unwise friends,
to whose jesuitical or imprudent suggestions be may
possibly be induced to yield himself. life is in a
proud, though it may be a precarious, position. In-

vested with the dignity of chief of the Exe-
cutive by the suffrages of six millions of free-
men, is he not a mate for the proudest of
the crowned heads of Europe, and will he vio-
late his solemn word for the prize of a bauble ? We
hope he will not ; we believe he will not. We cannot
but smile at the infatuation of those musty dreamers
who think the restoration of the elder House of thur-
bon, in the person of the Count DE CHAXIB9RD, a
thing possible or tolerable for France. Heaven
forbid we should ever witness the debasement of the
gallant children of that fair land under the re-
rivetted yoke of those imheciles, whose motto
it is neither to forget nor to learn. But it is
not outside the range of human probability that a
day may come when the national will may pronounce
in favour of a monarcho.republican system of govern-
ment, somewhat similar to our own, but of necessity
more democratic in its elements. LOUIS NAPOLEON
is at present the keystone of the Constitution of 1848,
but he may yet be invited to assume a more durable
and resplendent position ; nor do we fear that, should
the voice of France pronounce in favour of ass altera-
tion of the existing system, and invest with constitu-
tional sovereignty the nephew of NAPOLEON the
Great, he would be found uncqual to her requirements,
or undeserving of the high trust. But that voice yet
remains to be pronounced; and let the PRESIDENT
guard his sacred pledge inviolate in loyalty and obe-
dience to his country, or his will be deservedly the
fate of Phaeton. Of himself, left to himself, we
entertain a sincerely trustworthy opinion, and we
think he is possessed of sufficient sagacity and expe-

rience to penetrate the mask of pretended friendship. If
there be any who would goad him to the madness of
usurpation, to the infamy of high treason against his
country, we would invite their attention to the cour-
teous Republicanism of the reception of the PRESI

DENT by the crews of the grand fleet of France, as
an evidence that any aggression on the Constitution
for the furtherance of personal ambition and aggran-

dizement will meet with no very enthusiastic or en

couraging countenance from those who have some

thing more efficacious within their means than noisy
acclamations and intoxicating vivas, and whose disci-
pline are ever at the command of the interests and the
honour of France, obedient to, and conservative of,
constitutional authority.

The remands from the long list of Bills intro.
duced in the last session of Parliament, which Minis-
ters were either unable or unwilling to carry through,
were unfortunately both numerous and important,
and whether these short-•comings of the Government
arose from inability or unwillingness will be tested at
the opening of the next session, which we anticipate
will be one of the busiest and most critical since that
epoch in our political history—the Reform Bill of '32.
The political atmosphere is charged with antago-
nistic elements, and clearly indicates a gathering
storm. The Protectionists and Free-Traders are
numerically closely balanced, and the melancholy and
lamented death of one great man has left freedom of
action to the few who could always turn the scale of
party. The late Sir ROBERT PEEL eminently de-
served the high tribute which the whole British
nation has fitly paid to his memory. Born
and nursed in the school of monopoly and
intolerance, he yet dared to think for him-
self, and had the moral courage to fling.a3ide the

prejudices of education and party, and place at the

service of his country the results of long experience
and extensive knowledge. Happily for his own fame,
but still more fortunately for his country, " lIE GAVE
NOT to party what was meant for mankind." He tore
himself from the ties of a strong but narrow-minded
party, he trampled faction under his feet, and in the
zenith of his matured years and his riptned judgment
he thought only of his country. To his successors,
to those who acknowledged him as leader, we would
say, " Go ye and do likewise."
An attempt will no doubt be made, and has been
indeed made already, to cajole the friends of the
departed statesman in the House of Commons.
Every inducement will be held out to en-
tice them into the ranks of the Protec-
tionists, but shame on the recreant who
shell sully the fame of his departed leader by

banding with his enemies. We trust none of them
will be entrapped into the snare prepared for them,
but will continue the firm advocates of those measures
of relief and reform which the late statesman carried
out in the fullness of honest conviction, after the
mature deliberation of a whole life.
It must certainly be admitted that several measures
of great public utility and importance have become
law during the past session. We may instance the
County Courts Extension, the Brick Duties,
Charitable Trusts, and Mercantile Marine Bilis, with
many others ; but far the moat desirable and
meritorious were the Bah fur Australian self-
government and extramural interments ; still
we cannot overlook the short-comings and
failures. The window-tax is still unrepealed ;
the savings banks are left without protection ;
the Railway Audit Bill is on the stocks;; the Woods
and Forests left to the usual mismanagement ; the
Jewish question unsettled ; the nuisance of Smithfield
unabated ; the Stamp Act but little improved, and
Chancery left unreformed. But though these are
sufficiently evil, yet the emissions in regard to Ire-
land are still more to be deplored.
The Security for Advances Bill, which was look&d
forward to with hope and anxiety as a means of
working with advantage the Encumbered Esta'es
Bill, has been postponed. But the monster grievance
of all, that grievance in comparison with which all
other sins of omission or commission sink into utter
insignificance, the Irish land question, has been left
untouched.

To the midnight legislator, whose laws are fre-
quently written in blood, is still left the adjustment
of the relations between landlords and tenants in Ire-
land. Cruel murders and murderous evictions still
bear hideous testimony to the dire necessity for the
settlement of this question. Yet some of our con-
temporaries advance the preposterous notion that the
Legislature is not to interfere ; that it should be con-
signed to the Utopian hope that a better state of
things will arise ; that better feelings will spring up
between landlords and tenants ; that some imaginary
influence will disarm the assassin, and soften into acts
of kindness and justice the hard-hearted landlord.
We have no such hopes, we cannot indulge in
such vague fancies in the teeth cf the direfu!
assassinations and fearful cruelties which this question
has been the pregnant .cause of for ages ; and s e
most ardently hope that this subject will be the very
first—as it most certainly is the first in importance—

to occupy the 'attention or the Legislature in the
coming session of Parliament.
Upon several occasions, through the columns of t' is
paper, we have exhibited the absurdity of the propo-
sition; of those who, in entire ignorance or forgetful-
ness of every principle of constitutional law, would
place all contracts about land beyond the reach of le-
gislatioia ; and who would make PROPERTY IN LAND
so holy and so sacred as to exempt it from all the
social and political regulations to which every other
species of property is liable. Upon this pint we do
not feel it necessary to add a word, for even the
" Thunderer" grumbles not forth a rumbling sound
in justification of such inccroprehensible stolidity.
Legislative interference must speedily take place
on this all-important subject. The most pressing
necessity requires it ; the people demand it ; the
Government is pledged to it. Without legal inter-
position there is and can be no security for life or
property in Ireland. None but the enemy of peace
and order would attempt, under such circumstances,
to throw obstacles in the way of legislation. Tile
influential journalist, instead:of expending his power
and talent in a fruitless opposition to what the
force of circumstances has rendered of imperious
and pressing necessity, should rather aid the friends
of social order and good government in endeavouring
to settle this question upon principles of equity and
justice. We should wish to see the person and pro.
perty of the landlord secure by circumscribing the
rights which he might abuse, and by enforcing,
under the sanction of the law, the performance of
those duties which he might neglect. Why should
the RIGHTS of that man be held sacred who
fails in the discharge of the DUTIES wnicu THOSE
RIGHTS IMPOSE ?

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The National has the following on the return of
the PRESIDENT :
" The return of the President was fixed for the 13th.
Various rumours have been in circulation on this sub-
ject. An unconstitutional manifestation was to have
taken place under the auspices of a society now becom-
ing celebrated. The Parliamentary Commission having
been warned had directed steps to be taken for the sup-
pression, if necessary, of all attempts at disorder. These
rumours were subsequently contradicted in a letter from
Cherbourg, published by the Evenement. After all, we
have reason to believe such rumours unfounded, for we
have just received intelligence that M. Louis Bonaparte,
hastening his return by a day, will reach Paris yid Rouen
this (Thursday) evening. Have the Tenth Decembrists
been warned of the fact? We cannot say; but, how-
ever that may be, the Republicans, even should they be
made the object of culpable provocations, will know how,
by the dignity and calmness of their attitude, to defeat
the calculations of a zeal which we are sure the Presi-
dent of the Republic condemns as much as we do. To
insulting cries uttered by a faction, hostile to order and
to democratic progress, the public conscience will, for
the honour even of the man who has sworn to defend our
institutions, respond unanimously by the cry which
ought to be so dear to the Chief Magistrate of the Re-
public—' Viva la Constitution r "

It is now admitted by the organs of the Elysee that
the sailors at Cherbourg on several occasions raised
the cry of " Viva le Prince de Joinville," and the
Pouvoir contains a vehement attack upon the Prince,
whom it suspects of intending to start as a candidate
for the Presidency in opposition to Louis NAPOLEON.
It declares that the Prince DE JOINVILLE is a man of
mediocre abilities and mediocre wealth, whose only
claim to distinction is his connexion with Royalty,
which alone must prevent him from ever accepting
office as President of a Republic. To this the Ordre,
the especial organ of the Ifurgraves, replies :
" We know not what might be the intentions of the
Prince de Joinville in the eventuality imagined by the
Elysean journal, nsr what candidate France would
name supposing that an election of a new President
should take place in 1852; but this we do know, that
the nation, if it continues a Republic, ought to be
free to choose for itself ; of legitimacy, we fancy we
have enough, without any one being at the trouble
to invent a second. It is not probable that France
will think of electing the Prince de Joinville
malgre lui; the ,Pouvoir may then spare those fine remon-
ings it has heaped up on this subject; but if this Prince,
or any other candidate should be chosen, and that on
account of those very alarms which are raised by the
agitations and menaces of the party which calls itself
Napoleon, we should like to know by what right, or in
the name of what principle could this same party enter
a protestation? If we are under the empire of national
sovereignty, !it is fpr the nation to pron:n2f.:e; if we are
to fall hacla tkld hered,rtary right, it note. L. uis
B3noane who is its rQprotentative. His title' is, that
he has been elected for four years, and he has no other."
This may be considered as an Orleanist declaration
of war against the Bonspartists, and as an official an-
nouncement of the Prince DE JOINVILLE for the Pre-
sidency.
The Moniteur announces that the French com-
mittee, charged by the Minister of Commerce to de-
cide on the measures to be taken relative to the Exhi-
bition of 1851, met on the sth instant, M. C. DUPIN
acting as President. It appears from what was
stated, that up to the 3d September 1,212 applications
to be allowed to exhibit had been sent in, of which
723 were from the department of the Seine, and 419
from the other departments. Amongst those persons
144 had obtained at former French exhibitions gold
medals, and 212 silver ones. A great number of ap-
plications have still to be decided on. As the space
allowed by the committee (9,500 yards) is filled up,
new applicants are required to state the space they
may require.

The S'olon steam•corvette which left Toulon for
Tunis about a month ago, returned to that port on
the 7th. Its mission was then kept a secret, but it is
now known that it was to receive two fugitives—
SIDI CADOW, 3 near relative of ABD-EL-XADER, and
his servant, who had escaped from F. z. They were
taken on board the Solon, where they still remain.
They are to joiia Ann EL-FADER.

end duty to represent the rights and iiit.-rev.s of the
Duchies. Great is your task, and now it, i> of ro,re
importance than ever, as Schleswig Holstein more
than tormerly is left to its own means and perse-
verance; and the bearing now of the people and their
repmentatives will decide over the future fate ef the
country.
" tispired by the sincere love of peace, the Statthal-
rerschatt has repeatedly endeavoured to bring it about
by conciliatory measures; Denmark bas decidedly re-
jected every attempt at conciliation, acd would violate
the rights of the country with tho sword of the con-
queror. We have opposed the invasion of the enemy
with armed resistance, and a sanguinary battle
fought at Idstedt. This battle we lost—the fell of many
brave men is deeply to te deplored, and the greater
part of the duchy of Schleswig is suffering under the
oppression or the arrogant enemy; but the armed power
of the country is not destroyed. Our army, supported
by the German people, is augmented from day to day,
and joyfully numbers of volunteers join our brothers in
arms.

" With deep grief we see the unsettled state of our
German native country, but for our part we are firmly
resolved, as true sons of Germany, to persevere and fight
for the honour and rights of the Duchies. Our brave
army knows its duty and will complete its task.
" The Statthaltersehaft published the manifesto of the
22d of July, in reply to the Berlin Treaty of the 2d of
that month, which was not to bring peace to us, acd in
opposition to the resolutions of foreign Cabinets, and it
is hoped you consent thereto. To the Stetthalterschafc
has been assigned no part in the negotiations com-
menced at Frankfort for the reconstruction of our Ger-
man country. Germany is yet without a chief directing
authority. Tho department for foreign affairs stands in
no official connexion with foreign Governments. We
have not their protection, but we are not hindered in
our resolutions; and in this isolated state rely on the
justice of our cause and Our trusty sword. Our pecu-
niary means for continuing the war are not exhausted.
The uncertainty as to the duration of the war, and the
constitutional duty imposed on us to place the war bud-
get before the representatives of the people fur their ap-
proval, have rendered it necessary to bring forward fi-
nancial proposals.
The Statthalterschaft rely on the patriotism and de-
votion of the Duchies, end acknowledged, with grat:-
tude, the support which the German people have offered
them, and will further afford them, by assistance in
money and other things. In this extraordinary Diet it
does not seem advisable to proceed in the further con-
struction of the interior organisation of the country; as
at present every exertion should be directed to main-
tain and consolidate tho constitutional existence of the
Duchies. But one measure relating to the circulation--
the minting of small coin—and some modification of the
conscription law, appear urgently required.
" Gentlemen, the present time is serious and mo-
mentous. Let us, with this consciousness, stand firmly
together; and, relying on the higher dispensations of
God, retain the courage to bring our good cause to a
good end.
" I herewith declare the extraordinary states of
Schleswig-Holstein opened."
Tee Hamburgh Borsenhalle of the 10th contains
the following :
"Rendsburg, Sept. B.—Oar advance guard was
alarmed this morning, about 8, with the report that
the Danes had entered Gross-Breckendorf, and were
approaching in considerable force the po-
sition of the Steudtner Mill. The first part of
the report turned out correct, but not the se-
cond. On this being known, two detach-
ments were immediately sent towards the point
threatened, the one across the Sorge near the
Steudtner Mill, the other along the Bisten lake,
towards Ahlefeldt. Both of these detachments con-
sisted of troops from the 12th and 2.1 battalions, and
the 2d and ad Jagers, supported by two 3-pounder
and two 6-pounder field guns. These divisi ms ad-
vanced to within a couple of thousand ells of Gross
Breckendorf.
" The Tirailleurs had commenced their fire on
both sides, when suddenly a squadron of Danish
cavalry were perceivable on the high ground near
Breckendorf, in which the two 3-pounder brass guns
were brought in advance. These guns did their
work well; for, after a few shots had been fired
the cavalry wavered, and a gap was visible in their
ranks. Their share in the action, however, was not
continued any length of time, as in their place the
enemy brought half a battery of 12-pounders, and
culkinued firing with such an excellent effect that the
squadron of Schleswig-Holstein cavalry, the staff, and
the field guns had to retire some distance from the
position taken up. Scarcely, however, had this retreat
taken place, when the Danes themselves also fell
back very suddenly. Immediately after, shots :were
beard plainly towards the east of our position, on the
right of the Huttener Hill, which could have only
come from the corps :under Colonel Von Gerhardt,
and on this we again advanced, and in such
haste that the Danes fairly took to flight. They were
followed by the Tirailleurs close to Gottorf, about a
German mile from the town of Schleswig. At this
place the halt was sounded, and the retrograde move-
ment was ordered, for there was nothing further to
be done beyond this. The Danes were therefore pre-
vented from their reconnaisaance or foraging party,
whatever their intentions had been, and a force of about
3,000 of them had been driven back by about 1,600
men of our troops. Up to the present moment we have
not heard of any killed, wounded or missing on our
side; but, of the enemy, five men and a drummer
have been taken prisoners. This morning, however,
the Danes succeeded in taking a patrol of six men and
an ensign. In the west there has been some sharper
work. About nine o'clock the Danes advanced with
one battalion and four guns from Friederichstadt and
made an attack on our position near Suderstpel. At
first the enemy fired grapeshot upon the two com-
panies of the 11th battalion and Ist Jagers,
which occupied the point, and advanced against
the entrenchments at the point of the bayo-
net, but without success; and ultimately were
compelled to retreat with a considerable loss. Of
these troops 7 wounded and 6 unwounded me❑ have
been brought into our camp, and a great many of
their wounded have been conveyed by their comrades
into Friederichstadte but between 30 and 40 of them
are reported to have been killed in the affair on this
point of attack. We have also about 30 killed and
wounded."

Another account has been sent from Kiel, which is
as follows :

" SEPT. 8.
" To day three actions have taken place near Su-
flerstapel, Breckendorf, and near the harbour of
Eckerforde. Near SuderStapel our troops, consisting
of a detachment of the 11th battalion and the Ist
Jager corps, were attacked by a Danish battalion,
but which they beat back. The Danes have been com-
pelled to leave all their killed and wounded behind,
together with 23 prisoners. On our side are num-
bered three killed and about seventeen wounded,
among the latter Captain Schneider, of the lit
Jagers. Of the result of the affair at Breckendorf
nothing has been known for certainty. Near Alten-
hof, close to EckernfordQ, a party of our troops have
been firing against some Danish gunboats. Nothing
of importance could have been expected from this
affair, as our troops had no cannon, and the gunboats'
fire passed our position and did no harm."
The Hamburgh Friee Presse has the following
from Altona

" ALTONA, SEPT. 9.
"Yesterday an action more or less severe occurred
on the whole of our lines. In the centre our troops
advanced, by way of Breckendorf, as far as Jagel,
without any special result. Our right wing, to the
cast, drove: the enemy under theirguns at EckenforJe.
Oar left wing, composed of the Ist Jager corps, the
9th and 11th battalion?, was driven back near
Snderstipel by the Danes, baVing about six batta-
lions with them. On this point being reinforced by
the bat battalion, the Danes were in turn Compelled
to retire •lysfore our troops, and followed as far as
Schwabstedt, about a mile (German) from the posi-
tion. Nineteen Danish prisoners have been brought
into Rendsburg. Seth has been occupied by our
troops."

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was heavy
at a decline in price:. The sales were estimated at
4,000 bales, of which GOO were taken for export, and
400 on speculation.—Railway Shares were in r, que.rt at
higher quotations.
In Mark-lane a steady business has been transacted
in grain, and the arrivals are not Large, though a fair
quantity has been received of English growth.
In the markets for colonial and fareign produce ex-.
tensive sales have been made this week, and probably
even a larger business would have been done in some
articles, Sugar, for instance, if holders had not insisted
upon fuller rates. The advance is 61. per cwt. on this
vape, and in some instances more. Coffee, likewise,
has been dearer, and same descriptions are scarce. Tea
is better supported. Rum steady ; Cotton dull ; and
Tallow in decided favour at enhanced quotations.
Wool at the put:lic sales has gone very high. Port
Phillip up to 2s. 4J., Sydney to 25., Van Dieman's Land
to 2e., and Cape of Good Hope to ls. sd. per ih.
Intelligence has Leon received at Liverpool that her
Majesty's ship Psterel, with the Brazilian mail, was not
te leave Rio do Janeiro until the 28th July. This will
partly account for her being so much behind her time,
but she is still overdue. The Seagull was to leave on
the 4-h of August.
At Frankfort, on the 10th instant, Austrian Metallics
were quoted 81-k 4, and Spanish Three per Cents. 11134 to
4. In the Amsterdam market, on the 11th instant,
the Funds were in a favourable position. Dutch Two-
and-a-Half per Cents. were 574 to 5-16. Spanish
Bands had an upward tendency, and Mexican were
rather higher.
The Hamburgh mail with Tuesday's dates quotes the
rate for Bills of Exchauge oa London 4 lower, viz , 13
64. Not a great deal was done. Money was easy, but
stocks and shares were very quiet. Coffee fully sup-
p ,rted the previous rise, and was in fact rather higher.
Corn was quieter, the weather being very favourable.
It appears by accounts from the Levant that the Raisin
crop had promised to be larger than was anticipatert,
but that subsequently heavy rains fell and occasioned an
unfavourable change.
Notice has been given that the British contract mail
packets on the New York line will proceed direct from
Liverpool te New York, and letter's sent by that oppor-
tunity, and intended for Nova Scotia, New Brunswick,
or Prince Edward's Island, will be charged ls. 2d. each,
though pre-payment is optional.
The English Funds have been well sustained, although
a little plater now the settlement is got through. Con-
sols brought 964 4 for Transfer, and 964 -1 for Account.
The Now Three-and-a-Quarter per Ceuta were 994- to
4, and the Three per Cents. 97 to 4. Bank Stock is
firm at 214 to 215. Exchequer-bills have been 635. V.)
665., and India Bonds 84a. to 87s. premium. Consols
are now 964 sellers for October. riche German news does
not read :well.
The transactions in Foreign Stocks have been exceed-
irsly limited. Spanish Five per Cents. are firm at
19i 4, Mexican at 294, and Brazilian at 924 to 93.
Russian Stock has been marked 110 to 111, and Dutch
Four per Cents. have been quoted 904.
The Railway Market has relapsed into rather a
quieter condition after the failure of Mr. J. B. King,
who ascribes his losses to west-end clients. The tone
generally however is still good, and those shares are
weakest for the moment on which the party had the
largest differences to liquidate.
