The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1848-07-28
The ForoagSA News.

In the mldst of the excitement caused by the
reception of the New York Volunteers yesterday,
we received q Geographic despatch from Boston,
announcing that the steamship Europa, with late
intelligence from the old world, was within sight
Of that port, and would soon reach her dock.
Shortly after the announcement came to hand we
received our usual Geographic dispatches, which
we issued In an extra Herald, and they, together
with additional items of intelligence, transmitted
to our agent in Liverpool, by express and telegraph
from all parts of The European continent, up to SIN
O'Clock Of the evening of the 10th instant, will be
found in the columns OF to-day's Herald exclu
sively.
The news Is very interesting, and very I'M
portant; almost as much so, any accounts
that we have received from the old world
In a long time. For the details we refer
our readers to the copious extracts which we pub
hsh to-day, which are we'll worthy of careful
perusal. The intelligence from France does not
much alter the state of things in that republic.
Fears were entertained from day to day that dis
turbances, Instructions, and bloodshed, similar
to THAT which recently took place there, would
again occur, but the dlsafected were evidently
overawed by the stringent and effective measures
adopted by the government for the maintenance
of peace, and, at the last accounts, the capital was
tranquil. We do not think it at all improbable
that there will be tmeHtcs and incpient insurrec-
tons but we think that the government, with
Cavaignac at Its head, and backed by the moral
and well-disposed portion of the citizens, will be
equal to any emergency that may arise IN the way.
The great danger to be apprehended Is, that amid
all this excitement and uncertainty, the people OF
that country will lose sight of the republic, and
perhaps, as was the'cas with Napoleon, acquiesce
in another form of government, that may promise
peace and quiet This would be precisely what
the agents of monarchical governments, and other
opponents of democracy, would desire but we
think they will be disappointed, and that the
republic will be permanently established.
Next to France, Ireland excites the attention Of
the world, and especially that of the people of the
| United States. We do really believe that there
will soon be an end of the eternal talking in that
country. The people are evidently preparing for a
bloody and terrible conflict There un.

revolutionists by the adoption of the principle Of

and the others, having Ibeen arrested under the

tons Every arrival will contain exciting news
from that quarter.
There is probability of peace being concluded
between Russia and Denmark. In Italy there is
not much change to note. Spain is on the verge
OF a volcano, which may burst at any moment.
But there is no peace in Europe. The whole con-
tlnent is in state Of transition. and no one can
predict what day will bring forth A conflict
between the Irish and the government of England
may yet be the spark, which will finish the con-
fagration, commenced by the revolution in France.
