FRANCE. It is stated in late English pa
pers that public opinion in France is rapid
fy tending to republicanism and that the
monarchy mast fall within five or six years,
if not sooner. 1t is also alleged that the
King of France and his unpopular ministry
are disposed to abolish the charter, form an
alliance with foreign powers, and support
the monarchy by foreign troops. There is
doubtless much exaggeration in these state
-ments.
The London Morning Chronicle remarks
that there is all the difference in the world
between France and England. France is
essentially democracy. The large estates
of the nobility and church were cut up by
the revolution, and the law now divides
estates equally among all the children.
The aristocracy is nothing, and monarchy
without an aristocracy must soon resolve
itself into democracy. The King of France
is only the first magistrate of the nation,
and he must obey the will of the people or
force the people to obey his will. There
can he no peace till the question is settled.
The properly and intelligence of the coun-
try are now arrayed against the government.
England is essentially an aristOcracy.
The possessors of great estates and bor-
oughs draw along with them all the power
and influence of the country; the people
are nothing. England has no popular rep
resentation; the machinery 10y which she
haste appearance, a popular representation,
is merely mole in which the aristocracy
act thrnnGh part of tho PcuPic thelT
tools. Such are the comments of the
Chronicle.

From COLOMBIA. The Colombian Con-
ventlon was to commence its session in
January. Bolivar was expected at Bogotta
about the 25th of December 1t had been
proposed 10 establish monarchy in that
country, but Venezuela having declared her
opposition to such a system, and also that she
would separate from the rest of Colombia
IN such an event. This determination of
Venezuela, had produced great excitement
among the friends of Bolivar at Bogota, and
1t was expected that the plans of the mon
archlst would, in consequence, undergo
some alteration.
A treaty Of peace between Colombia and
Peru, had been signed and ratified.

Power. Some very interesting expert
ments took place on the Baltimore and Ohio
rail road few days since. Among the ex-
periments we notice these
One horse with the same apparent ease
that he would have drawn a gig over a
smooth and hard road, moved two of Win
ans cars laden with .forty-One persons, at
the rate Of between ten and eleven miles
an hour. The distance travelled, out and
in, was about five miles.
Another horse drew twenty-five persons,
on carriage of another construction, to
the end of the rails and back, in lively
trot. A second trip was made by the same
horse, carriage and load at the rate of IL
miles an hour. A single horse then drew
two rarrinnas md Fifty Gvo narsnns, nino
miles in an hour; third carriage was
attached, and the whole, loaded with eighty
four men and women, and the horse per-
formed the trip with the same ease and We
locity.
Another carriage with seven persons.
was rapidly driven by winch, worked by
two of them. Two dogs, attached to car,
trotted off with load of six persons. Those
who have not seen, can hardly believe such
things; but they are true.
Among the experiments was one made
by car fitted with sails. Though the
breeze was gentle, six persons were carried
IN at rapid rate. The experiment afford
ed much amusement TO the spectators, and
went to show that with large sail and
fresh breeze, carriages may ne propelled
with great velocity.-NiIeS's Register.

On Saturday last Mr.. Hemplil and five
other members of Congress, with other
PERSONS. making twenty-five in all, were
conveyed on the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
Road mile and half in six minutes, by
one. horse, being at the rate of fifteen miles
an hour. In their presence 100 persons. in
four carriages, the whole computed to weigh
l23 tens, were drawn the same distance by
a single horse, in eight minutes, being at
the rate Of eleven miles an hour.
