ne have received the New-Orleans Cou-
r;sr Of the 9lst ult. On the evening OF the
17,h, Governor Villere received from an ano-
pymous hand, a letter, informing hlm that a
narty of evil disposed persons had it IN con"
.empla,ion TO set FIRE 10 several parts OF the
civ with a view to rob the banks and libe-
rate the pirates confined in Jail under sem
,suce of death. The governor shereupon
took every practicable step TO discover the
author of the information but without success;
and whether it was intended as a hoaT, whe-
aber il came from a person who really had be-
come acquainted with such a plot, but was
afraid 10 let himself be known as the DISCO

by one of the conspirators could not be as

The Liverpool Mercury of the 18th OF fe-

The Dutch have been driven from Palam-
burg with the loss of many men. The Ma.
lays opened a battery of 80 pieces OF
upon the Dutch soldiers, who attempted to
storm the works three times, and lost III
men, and two officers killed.
A part Of the Irish Legion sent to Vene-
zuela by Gen. Devereaux, had returned
home. They were deceived in their expec-
%tations. and complained of the Reyolutiona-

Ireland is much disturbed by a class Of
men who are styled Ribbon-men. The Rev.
J. O'Rork, who is stated as the terror ct
these people, had seized 19 of them in the
night within a mile of Tuam, and committed
them to Galway gaol, where Is others had
been sent during the week.
The Relormers still continued 10 excite
inquietude in some parts Of England. The
town Of Peters6eld had been thrown into
great confusion on a Sunday, lately, by the
appearance of a number OF persons march
ing in military array, armed with muskets
and sticks. who, alter parading the town, at
tackled a house and took forcible possession
of it.

national grounds, says the Country Chroni-
Gle, the people Of Granthain can certainly
do nothing less than elect him.

The difference that has for many years past
existed between the present King and Queen,
has, since bis accession, pres ted new dltl'
c%ulties, which it would seem. cannot easily
be got over. By the laws aad constitution
of the realm, she is Queen tho she resides
abroad. In adapting the forms OF prayer To
the existing circumstances a question arose.
concerning the propriety OF emitting the
Queen, by her title. On this subject, the
Ministers and the law officers Of the crown,
are understood to maintain opinions contrary
tc the Kings and it is said, that a perseve-
renee in that opposition will probably pro-
duce a change in the Ministry. Should that
be the case, the Ministers will deserve great
credit for their integrity and independence.
But we think the King would run great ha-
yards in such a change. The leading mem
bers of the opposition have always taken her
Msjesty's side in the disputes, and therefore
they would not get into place OH this
ground. Probably some middle course would
be pursued, and a ministry be made up OF
neuters-a species of politicians that would
make but a poor hand in conducting their
perplexed, and threatening political con-
Germs. Indeed, we are well convinced that
almost any change of Ministers, just at this
crisis, would greatly endanger the safety OF
the nation. All the energy Of the successors
of Mr.. Pitt, has been scarcely sufficient to
keep the kingdom s~teady--a new set OF men,
of a different description, would probably
introduce a new system, and the chances
would be, that the nation would fall under
the experiment.

CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.
IN SENATE.

Wednesday, March 22.
The President communicated To The
Senate the following report from the
Secretary of State.
The Secretary of State, to whom, on
the 9th Of February 1919, by a Resolu-
ton of the Senate the memorial of
James Smith and others, was referred.
to consider and report thereon, has the
honor of submitting the following re-
port,
The claims Of the memorialists be-
long to a class which among many @.
Tiers has been repeatedly, aid very
earnestly, pressed upon the attention Of
the government Of France. Copies are
herewith submitted to the Senate Of the
correspondence between the Minister
Of the United States at Paris, and the
Minister Of Foreign Relations, upon
this subject, before and since the re-
ference Of the memorial to this Depart
ment. From the grounds Of resistance
to tie claims most recently assumed on
the part of the French government, it
would appear. that any relief which tie
memoriaiists may be entitled to expect,
can result only from measures within
the exclusive competency of the Legis-
latiyc authority.

As perfect uniformity in the { ,tting and

be glad to have this work all executed atthe
Academy. where excellent workmen will be

done on as reasonable terms as at any other
