tress in England.
New YoRK, July, Is. P. NJ.
FRANcE-GTeat alarm and excitement--
The present Government party are likely to
be defeated by the party favorable to an
Emperor. Louis Napoleon has rekindled
the old Bonaparte enthusiasm. As soon as
the government saw the importance of this,
10000 troops were concentrated in Paris
On the 10th, 1900 rioters were Surrounded,
hemmed in and made prisoners, among
them sorle Americans and Englishmen.-
When Louis arrived on Monday, more than
a regiment of the National Guards shouted
"Vive lie Empereurr' Lamariine mounted
the tribune, pale as ashes, and demanded
the resolution of the decree against Louis;
there were ihirty-two against Louis. While
he was speaking, some shouted ''Vive lie
Empereur!'' and Lamartne sat down over
whelmed. One of the National Guards
was shot. The decree was sanctioned by
acclammaton, but the people disputed it,
saying ssLouis shall take his seat" On the
18th the excitement increased, and attempts
were made to erect barricades-but they
were overwhelmed by military forces and
prevented. In the evening the Assembly,
by large majority. reversed the decision
of the previous day. and declared Louis Ma
poleon admitted. Ledru Rolin opposed
the motion. The majority prevailed and
opened the doors. Ledru Immediately re-
signed, and it is rumored Lamartine will
follow. A proclamation was issued, calling
him to the throne. On Wednesday, Paris
was quiet. Louis was hourly expected IN
person, as leader.
Nearly 60oo commercial houses in Paris
have failed.

OPINION OF GENERAL TAYLOR ON SLAVE
RIA correspondent of the Mobile Herald
writing from East Pascagoula, under date of
August 10th, gives account of an interview
with General Taylor, from which we extract
the following
1.-The old man seems to be frank and with
out craft lie shuns no topics and as far NJ
| could discover. is accustomed TO utter his
opinions without regard TO politicians or news
paper editors. Last evening, group of some
dozen or more of US was gathered around him
eagerly listening to an animated conversation.
IN which his natice simplicity of manner was
quite charming. He ran through various top
les. which he illustrated with excellent sense
andvaricd information He did not hesitate 10
pronounce sIaUery an erik, to commercial gres-
Perify Of the South. To this he attributed the
decay OF Virginia; and he thought it would
extend TO other slave States. I7e spoke at
some length on the point. and drew many of
administrations from ancient history. While,
however he regretted the system, he depre-
Gated the foreign attempts TO abolish slavery.
lie thought the agitation on the subject per-
DiciouS to both whites aud blacks.
.'General Taylor disapproved .emphaticalIy
of the spirit of conquest, and attributed the
present political divisions aud dissensions IN 81
lust of conquest On this point he exhibit
ed much tamiliaritys with both ancient and
modern history; and frequently drew his IL
Illustrations from it.
