lMronr,Nr.-.iHempt 10 ossassinotc Louis Ph"-

hPPf.
The Ship Republic, Capt. Williams, from Liv-
crpool, was boarded bv our news collector ycs'cr-
dav lying To, twelve Mules from SANDY Hook. lie
arrived in town late AT night, bringing us Lon
don papers TO the 2Slh, and Liverpool To the 20l
| June.
The attempt again to assassino,e Louis Phil
lppe, of which We annex the particulars, will pro-
badly excite considerable degree ol attention.
/ The assassin is Justly condemned by The PAris
press IN general, with the sinele exception OF one
paper Ie National, which does not make any
comment upon the occurrence, lie NM II APP
pears, acted with great courage aud sang toid.-
Instead OF stopping nj the Tulcrlrs, after the at
tempt on his life he continued his Journey to Ncu-
lily, where his family were waiting 10 receive INN,
ignorant Of the danger he had escaped. An al
ieetng interview cnsucd, and from his arrival iill
midnight, his palace was ,hrongcd by Foreign Min
lSterS, Peers, Nc, anxious 10 congratulate Inn on
his safety.
The Chamber of Peers was Immediately convo-
ked 10 receive n communication from the Govern
meni, and the Dukes of Orleans and Nrmours were
summoned to Paris by telegraph their return
from their tour IN Lomhard,.
Another interesting piece o intelligence rccciv-
I'd by this arrival is, that the British House OF
Lords have taken into consideration the amend
ments Of the Commons To their amendments to tho
Irish Municipal Bill and the result WAS that the
/ amendments Of tho Commons were rejected, the
numbers benz for the amendments ~, against
Them li2. Lord Melbourne, Lord LNnthurSt,
and Earl Grey, were the prominent speakers ON
the occasion. Tho amendments of the Com
mons being ncga,ivcd generally, the Lords APP
pointed committee to draw up >t,temcnt of
the reasons for their disagreement with the other
House.
The accounts from SPAN, though presenting
nothing decisive, still strike exhibiting in
strong colors, the amcnlabo weakness OF the
/ Queens Government. II is true Don Carlos
does not appear in . nus, ...,,,., ,tuic posi-
uon. ,oraova, the Commander -ii-thiei of the
constitutional army, had returned and placed
himself again a, its head, bui action between
the concnding parties of any account had taken
place.

by the National Guards, who where under

King, the assassin was dragged INTO the guard
house, and with difficulty saved from being torn to
pieces.
Bya strange chance one of those National
Guards was IA gunrnakcr, of the name of Devismc,
living in the Rue de IIedor who Immediately re-
coguizcd the prisoner as an individual 10 whom
some two or three months before he had sold the
weapon he had Just discharged aud which the pri

tended he wanted rs pattern OF specimen for the
purpose of making sales for the manufacturer and
inventor NJ. Dcvismc. The prisoner admitted that

bablv,) was Abcau, and that he had lived in the
Rue aos. The prisoner is OF IA dark complex
ION with great beard which surrounds his chin.
Ills costume was apparently decent and clean, but
it concealed IA very much soiled SHIRT, winch he a.
vowed he hai worn for three weeks.
There were found upon linn Two very short clay
chief, which had never been hcmmed, and which
was disgustngly hIlhy--a beard comb-and in
fine, a coutcau-ppisnard dagger open, with sill
yer handle, and some paper wrapped round the
blade, with which weapon he declared he intend
ed 10 kill HIMSELF and he did, in fact, attempt to
kill himself, bn, was prevented. lie displayed vast
assurance and cirontcry. lie refused TO give any
satisfactory answer TO The questions put to him. Ly-
ING ON the guard bed, he looked round with auda-
city, and said to those present. II were free

The Attorney General and the Project of Police
arrived AT the first intelligence of the crime, and
procec died TO examine hin, after which he was
brought to the prison of the ConcicreefIc, under
strong military escort.

Last evening, abcnt SIX o'clock, new at
temp, was made upon the Kings life, which ioru-
natelv nroy,d as unsuccessful as the former. Just
as his Majesty had entered his carriage, to return
to Neuilly, and was passing under the gateway
leading TO the quay, young man who had placed
hin,elfon the side opposite TO that of the post OF the
National Guard, lifted up cane in which pistol
barrel had been fixed placed il the carriage door
and fired it at the King
% Louis Philippe was at that moment bowlng
to the National Guard, through the other window.
Whether the assassin felt agItatcd, or, as 1t was
stated, was pushed while engaged in taking al.n,
the ball did not touch the King, who Immediately
after the explosion, made sign that he was not
wounded, and ordered the coach to b.. driven ON
