The steamer Caledonia, which sailed from
Liverpool on the 18th inst. arrived at Boston
at such late hour on Monday night, that the
news by her was not received here until yes
terday morning.
BY the accounts below, it will be seen that
the revolution in France has been entirely
successful; that provisional government has
been already established, and that England
has recognized France as Republic.
1t could scarcely be anticipated but that the
great movement which has convulsed France,
should have been felt in some degree, in the
British Islands.
In London, trifiing disposition to riot
was experienced in the early part of the
week, but the disorderlies were confined to
mischevous boys and citizens out of employ
ment. Order was speedily restored.
In Glasgow. the tumults were more seri-
Gus, and several persons were unfortunately
shot by the military. The rioters in that
city were merely thieves, who pIunder the
shops and had evidently no political object in
view.
In Manchester some tendency to disturb
ance has been exhibited, but every thing is
now quiet. In our own town, tranuuility
has been undisturbed. Numbers of unem.
ployed persons and others have Assembled ON
the Exchange, but no political feeling is yet
observed. n ~
In Ireland, no breach of the peace has yet
taken place: but the exciting language Of a
certain portion of the press which surpass-
es anything within our recollection has not
escaped the attention of the authorities We
have no apprehension of any disturbance of
the public peace, throughout England gem
orally, by a rising of political opinions, al
though the depressed state Of trade and the
existing uncertainty naturally incident to the
affairs Of the continent might, we fear, pro-
duce state of disquietude and suffering a.
moDgst numerous classes for some time to
come.

States, went to the Hotel de Vile, to make
formal recognition of the Provisional Gov
ernment. 1t was appropriate to the Repre-
sentative OF the American Union. to be the
fret to welcome one infant Republic. for there
is no bond more powerful between nations
than community Of sentiment
The step taken by the Minister of the
States has made existing circumstances of
serious importance; although fully awaited,
it has touched acrtely the members Of the
provisional government; after an interview,
in which were exchanged the noblest express
slons, they in body accompanied this repre-
sentative of the great nation to the threshold
of the Hotel dc Vile, as proof Of the cor
dial affection which must ever exist between
the American and French republics.
