 A conspiracy to assassinate Louis Phil lippe had been discovered and prevented.
 The Court of Peers have sentenced Re- uerchoa, one of the Lyonese insurgents, to five years imprisonment and fine of 5000 francs, for violent and insulting language towards inc Court. The prisoner declared himself as Republican soldier, and rated his judges in good round terms.
 The affairs of Spain seem adverse to the CarIist cause. The death of Zumalacar- reguy is probably an irreparable blow to them. The siege of Bilboa had been rais- ed, and the besieging force had retreated in great confusion to the mountain fastnesses, where Don Carlos had his head quarters. To handful of British auxiHarles, who were present and aiding in the defence of the town, is ascribed, with the usual boast fitness of the English prints about British prowess, &Jc. the success of the detence.
 The Queen of Spain Is about receiving efficient aid from Franco. The .Moniiear announces, that by virtue of convention signed between the Dukes de Broglie and Frias, on the 18th ull,, the foreign legion is transferred to the service of the Queen of Spain. No stipulation has been made about strengthening the foreign legion by any French recruits. Volunteers howeV- CT would be received and the Prefect of the l Seine advertises for recruits, and announ- ces that the public office of the Military h. tendant has been opened for the purpose of
 
 the necessity of applying elsewhere for leave. There are still some difficulties, however, of a pecuniary nature, which pro- 1 bably will not be surlnounted until tho arri- val of M. Mendizabel, who had, however, intimated to his ambassador that he could not reach Paris. consistently with his other engagements, for eight days to come.
 Two steamboats, with attachments amounting to 900 men, had sailed from Engla1d--to form part of Colonel, now General Evans's command.
 A conspiracy 10 overturn the throne of the Emperor Nicholas was discovered in St Petersburg, i'll the course of the month of May: aud more than sixty persons have been arrested on charge of being engaged in it. Such IS the secrecy with which the proceedings of the Russian Government are conducted, that the news of this affair only reached Paris recently.

One million of the debt due to the branch of the U. s. Bank in this city, has been transferred to the Bank of Kentucky. The entire amount of the whole debt due to tho branch is said to be thirteen or fourteen hundred thousand dollars. The portion transferred to the State Bank is 10 bear an interest of 5 per cent, and be liquidated in one, two, three, and four years. This IS precisely the arrangement, which we pro- Jected and repeatedly recommended two or three months ago, and there can be no doubt, that it will prove conveniently advan- tageous to both banks as well as beneficial to the public. The vile islander, that the U. s. Bank in this place looks forward to the control of the next Presidential elec- tlon, will now be heard no more.

According to present appearances, there will be, in the next Legislature, about 60 Wings and 40 administration men--or q Whig majority of 20. Some of the strong est Whig counties have elected Jackson Representatives, partly because our oppo- nents raised the universal cry of no party, and partly because our friends felt little or no excitement, quieting themselves with the confident assurance, that Tory majority in the Legislature of Kentucky was thing altogether beyond the bounds of possibili- ty: The Jackson papers themselves, es- pecially the Advertiser of this city, averred that their party had no expectation of Le- gislative ascendency, and, that they were laboring for no such vain and hopeless ob ject. Had party lines been rigidy drawn, the Wings, instead of electing merely three fiiihs of the members of tie Legislature as they have now done, would have elected more than three-fonrths of them.

Girard CoHege.-We visited this build ing few days since, and took d hasty glance of it. Probably nothing in the Un- ion-not even the capitol of the United States, will compare with this superb sruc- ture when completed.-The plan is noble and beautiful--and no one can view It without admiration. The workmanship is done in the most substantial manner and the large blocks of marble, and the solid masonry, strike the beholder as indestructi- ble by the hand of time; they will be as eternal as the bills. And its massive CO., lumns, defying the power of time, and out living successive generations of men, un- doubtedly in the remote centuries of futuri- ty, will be regarded with wonder and vene- ration. The Girard College will stand as noble monument of the munificence and patriotism of the founder while our H. berties exist, and until anarchy or despet- ism shall triumph, and with sacrilegious hands, attempt to extinguish the last ray of civilization by raging t 10 the ground.
 No man ever founded better scheme of education; good education and good trade the best qualifications of useful citi- zen and statesman.--Who can tell the good that will result to the world from this noble institution what new lights of scIence burst from the obscurity of the wilderness; what Franklins, Washingtons. Shermans, may be destined to adorn its coronet, what po- cts, philosophers, statesmen, heroes, shall be drawn from poverty to shine abroad up- on the whole earth?--In vain the eye glan- ces into the distant vista; the more we con- template, the more diyinely generous IS the work. Blessed be the memory of its foun- der. pilIage Record.

 In witness whereof, have hereunto set my hand, and affixed the seal of office, this Beth day of August, 1855.
 ALFRED E. PACE, Dep. Crk ofthe Johnson co. c. c. - Another report has been, that in two exa- nninations before the Justices in relation to the murder of Mason, had sworn tioo fooys; Tn short, had committed perjury. The afiida- wits, and he only ones, which gave, or have ever given, with relation to that matter, l shall herewith present. The originals are on file in the Clerks office, and aoiu be kept there. The first affidavit was made before the Jury of Inquest, on the day of the mur- der, and IS in the following words:
 ssL. N. Clarke deposeth and saith, that I was coming along the road after J c. Jouett, about 90 paces, and saw Jouett turn oif the road where there was a crowd of men, and about the same time Mason advanced toward Jouett, and Mason threw weight at the said Jouett, and about the said time Jouett drew pistol and fired 1t, and Mason continued his blows with stick, which continued until they both fell. Further the said depcnent saith not.
 Signed, L. \. CLARAE.
 The next was before the Justices, on the 2sth July, and is, verbatim, as follows:
 sIorenzo N. Clarke, after being duly i sworn, saith on his oath, that he detained John c. Jouett at the residence of F. E. All ston, something like two hours. Jouett said

TO THE PURLEC.

ByOR the first time in my life, am con- N pelled to appear before you in self-yindi- cation, in the columns of a newspaper. Re- ports injurious to my character have been, as I have learned, circulated in this Territory, and having patiently awaited judicial in- vestigation, which is at length concluded, l now take the only remaining means in my power to exculpate myself from the charges which have been made against me.
 The report which has been most industri- ously circulated, to my injury, is, that was accessory to tue murder of s. r. Mason, com mitted on the 27th July last, in Johnson CO.,, by John c. Jouett. Avoiding all unnecessa- " comments, l will simply state, that ever earnestly dissuaded Jouett from any violent measures, and ten minutes before the murder thought had succeeded in persuading him to attempt none. So far from fomenting quar- rel or advising bloodshed and murder, l as- sert, and challenge proof to the contrary, that did every thing i'll my power to prevent vi- olence. In vindication ofmy own character, and in proof of what I have averred, I will submit to candid public the following certi- fcates:
 ''SpADnA BLurFs, Aug. 26, 1885. Col. [. ". Clark
 Dear Sir-Before and after my arrival at this place, rumors of your participation in the murder of s. F. Mason, in this county, came to my ears. As the officer of the Government, deemed it my duty to investigate every cir cumstance in relation to the unfortunate oc- currence; and upon full examination of the witnesses, I taKe pleasure in stating, as an act of justice to you, that the enquiry has re- suited in exculpating you from even suspi- eien of any agency in the murder of Mfr. Ma son. This note you are at liberty to use in any manner you may think proper l l am, with much respect and esteem,
 Yours, Sc.
