Paris is still agitated The resignation of Louis
Napoleon postpones trouble for the present Six
candidates for President are already in the field.
viz M. de Lamartine, Theirs, Prince LOUIS b.
naparte, M Marrast, Gen. Cavaignac, and M
Caussldiere, ex-pretect Of police. The Orleans
party will support M. Theirs, and Berger has de-
clared in his favor. The legitimists are divided
between Theirs and Lamartine. If The elections
were soon 10 take PLACE, little doubt exists that
Louis Bonaparte would be the successful can
didate. The feeling exhibited by the French people
IN his favor, leaves no doubt that IN the
event Of Presidential election, he would be re-
turned in almost every electoral college in France
Accordingly, the constitution has already been al
tered to meet this first difficulty in its working;
and the President instead of being elected directly
by the people, unless he has absolute majority of
votes gwen, is to be selected by the National AS
sembly from five persons returned by the people.
The election of Prince Louis Napoleon as Co.
lionel of the Fourth Legion of the National Guards
of the Baulcue, rice DAlton Shee, resigned, has

pcnhagen, which was attended by the British MI
Mister, the Russians, on behalf of Denmark, de-
manded that the Germans should evacuate both
Duchies before any negotiations were entered into:
and that if Schleswig was given up, Russia would
claim Holstein, according to the treaty with the
Danes and Paul
At Berlin, on the 18th instant, a collision took
lace with the burgher guard, arising out of an
.ttempt to dlspersc some workmen, who had gone
o the Minister to demand work or money Be-
ng refused, the guard attempted to dispense them,
and five men were wounded. The news spread
like lightning. Barbados were formed, and the
people having discovered that the arsenal was left
at ii p. NJ, made an attack upon
that building and pundered it of abou, 2OOO stand

Ing till ! O'Clock, and then retired. The next day
was quiet; but one of the deputies moved that the
assembly SHOULD send away all the troops and put
themselves under protection of the people. This
vas carried, and the government resigned.
AT Prague, the king having refused to confirm
he provisional government, and Prince Windsch-
,ratz having erected batteries round the town, the
mob and the students rose ei massc and demanded
arms.
A collision having ensued between the Bur-
cher Guard and the populace, some assassin
seized the opportunity TO indulge his private
malice by firing a rife at the Princess Windsch-
rratz. who was shot in the head. The victim
was the daughter of the celebrated Prince
One of the princesss sons
was also MORALLY wounded. In these exciting
circumstances, Prince Windschgratz, with great
and dignity, entreated the mob to dis
perse: but to no effect. They endeavored to
hang him up to lamp by a rope, which they
when he was rescued by his grenaders.
At five O'Clock, the people not having taken
down the barbados as he had required, he order
ed heavy guns to be brought into play, and he con-
tinued firing until 10 o'clock at night. The con-
flIct lasted, almost without intcrmisson, during
the next day, and by the latest accounts, we hear
that Prague was heap Of ruins. In consequence
of this bombardment, Prince Windschgratz had
re,reated from the city with the garrison, and oc-
