RESOURCES OF Louis PHrLIPPE.-The New
York Commercial Advertiser says, a letter from
London, which is now before US, says" am
glad to hear that the ex-King had just invested
about million Of dollars in New York. he
leeve that he had nearly three millions Ct
pounds sterling here. If so, he will not bo
badly or"
1t is generally understood, but with how
much reason we cannot say, that the ex-king
has property enough on this side Of the At
lantic to make himself and family comfor,a-
ble--but we have heard that he sold ont his
English funds and employed the money in tho
improvement and decoration Of Versailles.
One OF the worst things done by the Provi-
sional Government is the confscation of the
private property belonging to ho various men,
bcrs Of the Orleans family; but we suppo'e
that more just and generous arrangement will
be made when reason and conscience resume
their sway. The Duke de Montpenser has
something, we suppose, in Spain, and the Prince
de Joinyille in Brazil. But the main .depen =
ence of the family will probably be on what
the cx-King may have saltcd down" in for
eign countries, and on what the justice Of the
new Republic may think proper to restore Of
the private wealth remaining in France.

ONE DAY LATER FROM
EIJROPE.

The N. Y. Morning Star of Friday, says
the Tribune, published an Extra, containing
European intelligence extracted from Lon
don paper of Sunday the 18th inst, which
was brought to Liverpool by express, before
the sailing Of the Caledonia on that day. BY
!; some accident, as we learn from the Extra
Star, the paper did not reach this city till yes
terday, which accounts for the late appearance
Of its news;
Lord John Russells resignation was posi-
lively decided upon on Saturday evening.
Dispatches announcing his contemplated
resignation were forwarded to Dublin, the in
tellgcnce appearing in the Dublin papers of
Saturday, March l2.
Cabinet Councils were held in Downing ST.
on Saturday evening, and during the day Lord
Palmerston held conference with Mr.. Ban-
croft, the U. S. Minister.
The Cabinet it was understood, had under
consideration important concessions to Ireland,
and a considerable extension of the elective
franchise in the United Kingdom was talked
Of.
Douglas Jerrold, Immediately after his arri-
val at Paris, had an interview with Lamartne,
who received him in the most cordial manner
BY the latest intelligence from AlgieIs, We
are informed that on receipt of the astounding
news from Paris, there was tremendous ex-
element among the military of the city and
immediate neighborhood.
The Monitc,~ algeria OF the Goth February,
had an announcement from the Governor Gen
eral, the Due d'Aumale, Of the news received
from Paris.
The allegiance of the Due d'A umale TO the
Republic, secures peace to Algeria, and re-
moves those apprchensons of "a colonial war
which an opposite policy might have produced.
Paris was perfectly tranquil on Friday after
noon.
The successor Of Prince Metternch had not
been appointed.

A TERRIBLE AND FATAL CARoUsE.-Thc
Journal des Debats, says that in the devasta-
ton and burning Of the chateau Of Neuilly
France, some bandits rushed into the apart
ments, whilst others went TO the cellars. The
latter there found wine Of all descriptions, and
a cask of rum, which they broke open. Some
instants after, they were all drunk, and then a
terrific battle took place between them, their
principal weapons being bottles. At length
they fell to the ground overcome by intoxca-
ton, or by wounds. Meanwhile the men who
went into the apartments ravagcd and pillaged
them completely, after which they set them
on fire, and the whole building was soon in
flames. A short time after, the mon in tho
cellars were either burned TO death or sunoca-
ted. On Sunday from ono hundred to one
hundred aud twenty dead bodies were dug out.

THE UNION !.


The article which copy from the Union refutes, by
undeniable facts, the allegation of the Atlas that the
national administration sought the defeat of Mr. Wright,
and has conferred hono and bestowed the patronage OF
the government TO the exclusion of those who claim to
be the exclusive friends Of Mr. Wright, or, IN other
words the barnburnng section of the democratic party of
this State. A unfounded assertion never
hazarded by acous search OF pretext Tor their
desertlon OF the democratic party and Its candidates
From the outset of the administration, MIR Polk has
ferred high office upon, and gwen consideration TO- men
who, from the beginning, have assaed and magned his
administration, his motives and his measures, and have
been clearly hostile to them the wing opponents OF
the democracy; and has vainy attempted by liberal
recognition of his enemies and the enemies OF the democ
racy OF the nation, to conciate, and, possible, unite
both sections.
That the policy mistaken one, apparent TO
the real friends of the administration in this State for
having resolved upon hostility, and upon an ultimate de
serton OF the democratic these partsans did not
hesitate to accept and to hold Office, and to apply the
huence and position afforded by official station to the
promotion OF designs and the organization OF separate
party, hostile not less TO the OF their appointments
to Office than to the integrity OF the Union, and the
cess of the democratic party. And we have now the
spectacle of men holding high stations and subordinate
stations under the government prominent IN efforts to
rend the democratic party asunder TO defeat the cand
dates fairly nominated by the Democratic National Con-
venon, and to promote the interests and to minister to
the OF the wing candidates In this respect
tanly these officials of the administration employ the
power OF Office weapons to wound, and, If possible,
PROSTATE the old democratic cause, to which they are in
debted for honors, emolument, and distinction, and
against which, with striking ngratude they turn
their parricidal hands.
Fortunately for the country and for the democratic
cause, and for the ascendency of democratic principles,
these efforts will be met and resisted by the strong arms
and united energies of the democracy OF the Unon fac
ton and deseIton will be unable seduce the democratic
from their faith those who act with them will
inevitably find themselves in the wing ranks and will be
regarded and treated as aliens from the democratic
cause and the democratic candidates without their aid,
and in defiance OF their opposition, will be tiumphanty
sustained The signs all point to this gratifying result
