The weather during the week, had be
very unsettled; during the early part, a good
deal Of rain had fallen, but a variation of the wind
had brought about a complete change in the at

The government has already become satisfied
that the precautionary measures of quarantine are
altogether unnecessary, since they have deter

Affairs In ireland.
In Ireland, the Lord Lieutenant in replying to the
deputaton of inhabitants of Dublin and vicinity, in
relation to the sentence of Mr. O'Brien, declined to
give any directanswer to the memorial, beyond the
assurance that full weight should be given to the
recommend alton of the highly respectable jury
which tined HIM. The formalltles for bringing a
wit OF err or have all been complied with by the
legal advisers OF Mr.. OBren; but the official pri-
vilege OF granting or refusing the certificate with
which the attorney general invested, will not be
exercised by that officer until after his return to
Dublin. Mr. O'Donoghuee, after some hours
dellberation, has been found guilty, and a
recommendation of mercy accorded, in conse-
quence of his having withdrawn, or disconnected
himself, from his associates; previous to the at
tack on Balllngary. The trial OF Thomas Francis

The French Republic.
In France, the partial change In the admins
tratlon Of General Cavalgnac, is either the
prelude to his own retirement from office,
or more probably to some convulslon brought
about by the resentment of the red repub-

General Cavaignac had no alternative. He per-
ceived that the majority in the Assembly, formed
OF loyallsts, legitmlsts, moderate republicans -
they who had become republicans since the 9th
OF February-possessed the power Of excluding
him from office at any moment; and having been

Another pregnant proof OF the critical position OF
Cavaignac Is to be found in the wavering of the

Important from Austria.
The stupendous events which are passing in the
neighborhood of Vienna, and In the Austrian en-
pire, have kept all Europe in alarm and amazcment
during the week. Last week we announced the
breaking out of the Insurrection in Vienna, the
flight of the emperor, and the ascendency Of the
insurgent party, on the 7th and Sth ut At thus
juncture, Jeachich, at the lad of numerous ar

with view to suppress the insurreconary pro-
ceedlngs in Hungary, when the intelligence OF the
revolution OF Vienna reached hun. He instantly
