GLANCE AT EUROPE. "


The following remarks under the above
head, are ,rom the New York American
Ui the 18th.
Our attention has been for some time
past occupied 10y the singular state of things
which appears to have grown up among
some OF the Nations OF Europe since the ge-
neral peace. Though all is quiet l. smooth
without, there are occasional indications
OF deep seated spirit of discomfort, par
tlcuiarly in the north OF Germany and IN
Eng land which would seem we'll CalCu-
lated TO arrest the attention even of the
transatlantic politician. As to France, tho
still somewhat distracted by parties, by her
uItras, and her liberals, her constitution
allsts and anti constilutlonalists, she is, at
this moment, after all her humiliatIons, her
costly stIIumpbs, and most signal defeat,
the richest, the nappleSt, The least Cypress
Ell, aud If need were, the most efficient
nation of Europe. At the cost indeed OF
torrents Vi blood, and Of unspeakable mi.
seTy and crime, she has attained 10 a de-
gree OF freedom unknown to her befure.-
Her People are infinitely improved in
knowledge, the property OF the nation is
more equal y Distributed, the oppression
OF ieuGai lights Is completely abolished:

Metz. Orleans, August 81.
A decision was yesterday given by The
honorable Judge Lewis, OF the District
Court, tor the first judicial district of this
state, which involved a question OF consl.
derabe interest to the community. Peter
George had been convicted before the cri-
minal court of an assault and battery on
person called Aime, and was sentenced to
fine and Imprisonment. While in PRISON
under his sentence, the further execution
of the sentence, as respects Imprisonment,
was respited by the governor until the
meeting OF the senate, il being understood
that application would be ma, to that be-
dy for full pardon. The sheriff received
orders to liberate him, and he was permit
ted to GO at large. Shortly after his lber-
alton, Mr.. Dennis, one OF the criminal
Judges, conceiviag that the governor was
not authorized by the constitution grant
a reprieve in this case, issued wis is call
ed an escape warrant 10 apprehend George,
in order to undergo his sentence. He was
accordingly lodged in prison by the sheriff.
On Wednesday last he was brought up be-
fore Judge Lewis, OH writ Of habeus cor
pus, in order that the question might be
determined whether or not, in the last in
stance, he was legally imprisoned. The
Judge decided that II was case in which
an escape warrant could not lie. and or
dered him to be set at liberty.
