FRENCH REPuBLIc.-The Paris correspondent
(22d March, of the London Globe of the 4th-the
last London date by the Hbenia-writes that there
is good deal Of speculation to the constitution
to be proposed. M. de Lamartine inclines to that

President. Two of the other Ministers are said to
incline for a Directory and a Convention. The
public feeling generally appears to be rather in
favor of the views of Nj. de Lamartine.

Now for clean streets, free baths for the people,

Garlandsville, Miss, the of the murder of Dr.
Longgon and family, which we noted few days
ago. that one of the children was still living; but
its condition was such as place it beyond recov-
cry The negro girl who is accused of this terrible
crime was committed to the Paulding Jail On the
examination nothing appeared to show that she had
accomplices Indeed, it is not quite certain that
she is the guilty party She gave the alarm after
the deed. and stated that it was done by robbers
Nothing, however, was stolen from the house OF Dr.
Longgon; and footsteps of the exact shape and
size Of the girls feet, were traced to the dead body
of Mrs Longgon, which, it will be recollected was
found near the gate entering the yard. The weapon
nsed evidently was an axe The head of DR.. Long
gon was almost severed from the body. The girl is
only fourteen years OF age.

The BELGIAN KING ON REFoRMs.-An inter.
esting London letter, received by the Hbernia
makes statement of the manner in which the in
telgence of the French revolution was received
by King Leopold, by which he is represented to
have acted from the commencement of the crisis
with singular prudence for royalty. As soon as he
heard of the fate of Louis Philippe, he summoned
his cabinet, and told them that to maintain his
throne he would not permit one drop of blood to
be shed. The ministry assured him that he was be-
loved by the people, and that he must continue
King-but, they said, you must grant reforms to
the nation. Reforms {" exclaimed the monarch,
you must grant them. Dom ask me for reform
| am not master. All such reforms as the nation
requires must be granted, and for that you and the
representatives are responsible to the nation.
Whatever is found to be for the welfare of the ma
ton will, of course be approved of by me-. l am
the elected King of the ,Belgians-,not their mas
ter!'' This language has been declared to be
strong, sound sense-and better definition cannot
be given to it.

o. In Philadelphia on the 18th inst, a boy, 7
years of age, son of Mr. Adam Book, living in st.
John street, above Green, died from the effects of
whisky, which he drank the afternoon previous.
The mother, it seems, for some medicinal purpose,
had procured pint of the liquor and placed it in
the closet. While she was absent, the boy took
the bottle, and, with the two younger children,
slipped until they had swallowed its contents.

DEFENCE OF Miss BETsEY-Oher,c,se Lola
Montes--A silly paragraph, says the New York
Sun, going the rounds of the press stating that
Lola Monies intends visiting the United States az d
danseuse This doubtless emanated from some
wonder-creatng penny-a-liner, and is without
shadow of credibility. Whatever the moral dein-
quences of Lola Monies may have been, she has
shown herself no ordinary woman With all the
obstacles of obscure birth, disreputable profes.
sion and spotted name, she by her energy, talent
and fearlessness not only ruled the sovereign, but
gained the respect of one of the most aristocratc
courts of Europe. 1t was not her being the Kings
mistress that excited the anpathy against her, and
caused her life to be endangered Courtiers are not
fastidious moralsts, and had Lola Monies been
merely the Kings minion, she would have had few
enemies
Blaming, as we must, continues the Sun, her ifl'
morality we think it unjust to brand her for crimes
of which she was not guilty, or to ascribe to the
Bavarian Noblesse and the enemies of Lola Mon.
es virtues which they did not possess Lola Monies
was powerful and talented-the advocate Of liberal
institutions, and the decided enemy Of long estab.
Iished usurpations. She had procured political ad.
vantages for the people, had favored revolutions,
and formed clubs against the old aristocrats. For
this they were her determined enemies. They Cir
cuated ISLANDERS, and attributed the foes and
vices of the bastard King entirely to her They
brewed the storm which has not only driven Lola
forth from the country, but has thrown the mobiles
into the pit which they had digged.

ROBERT J. WALKER-The following, which we

Walker-yet they are not too high:
A New Orleans correspondent of Louisiana
paper suggests that Mr.. Walker in feeble health
is probably in the last epoch of a laborious and
useful career'-and may not live to reach the Pre-
sidential chair But, he continues, Mississippi
will claim his ashes'-and on one of the embat
tied cliffs of her mighty river, shall be planted a
broken shaft, quarried from the hills Of the Allie
ghany, and upon it this inscription shall be placed:
Here rests the man who provided for the poor, by
destroying the monopoly of the soil, which the
af1uent engrossed-who first suggested tine explora
ton and conquest of California, opened the way to
Oregon, and blended the star of Texas with the
constellation of his country-whose great financial
genius stripped commerce of its chains, and without
oppression at home, supported abroad the glory of
arms equally eminent at the bar, in the senate
and council, he wore out his life in the service of
the people, and died, when yet young, before they
could confer on him the highest honor in their gift
