On Monday last, the county coroner held an
inquest at Holyoke, on the bodies OF IA of the
passengers washed up from the Ocean Monarch.
The inquest was adjourned until Tuesday, when
the jury returned verdict that they were acct
dentally drowned through the burning of the
Ocean Monarch. The jury also expressed their
appreciation of the exertlons made by The cap
tam and crew, in endeavoring TO rescue the pas
sengers. On Monday a great number of the
passengers by tbs Ocean Monarch went to Hol-
yoke, for the purpose of identifying the bodies
lying at that place. Several of the bodies were
identified, amongst which was woman, in

IRELAND.
With the exception of the gratifying an
nouncement that the weather continues fine and
dry, and that the agricultural reports from the
Provinces are becoming more favorable, under
the influence OF the recent change from hcessant
rains ID bright sun, there is no intelligence of
the least interest Irish excitement is invariably
followed by lull, but in the present instance
the relapse has been succeeded by downright
ethargy or proslration OF the whole system.
The accounts of the Harvest prospects IN the
counties OF Cork, Tipperary, and the North gen.
orally are highly satisfactory as showing grad
ual improvement in the appearance of all the
crops, and the belief gains ground, that large
portion of the potatoes will be available for con-
sumption.

Saturday morning, the National Assembly of
France hue at length determined to hand over
MN. Louis Blanc and Caussidlcre, officials OF
the Revolutionary Provisional Government, to
the legal tribunals Of the country, as being ini-
| pllcated in the disturbances of the 10Th May
The Assembly has not acted in this matter ac-
corGing to the advlces Of General Caviagnac
and his colleagues. The accused parties abb
seconded, and ii is said that Louis Blanc arrived
| in Gheni, where he was arrested on account OF
his having no passport. He was, by order Of
Government, set ut liberty. We since learn, ON
reliable authority, that he arrived in Dover on
"Wednesday, aud is now IN London.
! The proceedings OF the National Assembly Of
Monday possessed some interest. The amended
draft OF the Constitution was brought forward by
NJ. Volrhage; the first eight articles constitute
the Preamble, declaring that France, in order 10
advance to higher degree of morality and CIV
ll'zaIlon, proclaluis herself Republic; that the
