the responsibility of the Assembly, that they

Indictment and the former for their conduct
during the trials He also stated his intention
to make tour of the English provinces, for

The other items ofintelligencc Of most Importance
are the adjustment between France and England
of the Tahiti difficulty and the treaty ofpeace con-
cuded between France and Morocco The
Queens sast' has been christened alfred Ernest
Albert and Victoria, with her royal consort has
gone TO Scotland.
We give below some other items of interest.
FRANCE AND MoRocco.-The war between
| France and Morocco is at an end. The Sultan
has given way, and dreading the power he has
provoked, sues Tor terms. The telegraphic dis
patches transmitted by the Prince de Joinville
from Tangier on the 10th inst. states that
"The Moorish Government has demanded
peace. The feet arrived at Tangier this day.
The Governor of the town came on board TO
renew his demand. Our conditions have been
sgnifed and accepted, and the treaty signed
| During the day the Consulate General has been
re-established, and its flag saluted by the town.
Orders to cease all hostility, and to leave the
island of Mog adore, will be dispatched this ai-
ternoon."
This intelligence, which has been most IA
vorably received in France, has been also CRATE
fully received in England, as il will prevent
any possible chance of collision between the
two countries.
FRANcE.-rhe news from France is unim-
portant, beyond the fact that the Tahiti ques-
ton, between the French and Engls govern
ment is settled The Courier Francais states
that 81, 900 francs will be the amount Of the
compensation offered TO Mr. Pritchard for the
outrage inflicted upon him by Nj. D'Aubigny.
The AMERICAN MINISTER AT CHINA.-We
give the following items from the Hong Kong
Gazette Of various dates, received by the Over
land Mail They will doubtless interest most
of our readers.
"The authorities Of Canton are lar from be-
ing satisfied by the arrival OF the United States
lrgate 'Brandywine' at Whampoa. The I'M
perial Commissioner is absent, but the Manda-
rims have intmated to Commodore Parker, that
it would be desirable he should leave the river
We do not suppose he will comply with this
request until il suits his own convenience, but
as the frigate is shortly expected here TO Telt,
! his present visit at Whampoa will he short
one. Nothing has yet transpired officially Of
the probable success of Mr. Cushng's Mission.
/ If his Excelency insists upon going north,
with the 'Brandywine' and the other vessels,
on their way from the United States, he will be
stouly opposed so lar as mere passive hostility
goes, and every obstacle short Of actual war
fare thrown in his way. The report of Kee-
yng's having been appointed to negotiate with
the American and French missions is very
probable one"
The Gazette of still later date says:-
| "Kpying has arrived at Canton. He goes
! to Macao TO negotiate with His Exceency,
| Mr. Gushing, the American Minister. Sir Hen
~ Pot:inger will also meet his old friend at Ma
Gao; we trust the interview will result in an ar
rangemenl by which some Of the obnoxious
clauses in the Supplementary treaty can be
altered
Should the French Minister arrive soon,
Keying will have three European dpomatists
10 negotiate with al the same time-he proba-
| bly, is quite a match for them ALL"
There had been quite riot at Canton.s The
people were angry because an arrow, as awind-
vane, had been placed on the top of the United
States flag staff. On the 9th of May it was
taken down by order OF the American Consul.
Mr. Forbes. Subsequently, the mob collected
and broke into the square of the American fac
tory, and endeavored to pull down the United
States flag. They were resisted, and China
man, who turned out to be an innocent and
unconcerned shopkeeper, was shot. At 10 p.
M, the Chinese soldiers made their appearance,
and cleared the square. The populace contin-
ued in state of great excitement and Canton
was placarded with threatening notices that the
factories would be attacked and burnt. The
Chinese authorities appear TO have no power
whatever over the mob, and it seems 10 be
thought that, uless some strong ard decided
measures are taken. there will be no safety for
either life or property at Canton.
