GS- The editor Of the Bermuda Gazette makes
the following remarks relative to the propositions at
several repeal meetings in this country, to send out
an expedition to rescue Mitchell, the condemned
Patriot. They are decidedly the richest we have
seen lately:
The various rumO which recently reached from the
neghboung Continent Of rather aggressive nature seem
10 have originated IN political movement on the part OF the
democrats TO influence the votes OF the lSh-wth whom
they have not OF late tratemized-oI their candidate Cen
Taylor. the Presidential We that the more
respectable portion of the citizens of Boston and New York
far from encouraging those proceedings undsgusedy
condemned them. We did not apprehend that they would
attempt to out threats nOtwhsta ndIng the Vaunt
iugs Of The General We are too we'll guarded at the
present dread such thing The loyalty bravery and dis

vdual of sudden celebrity is given upon Irish au-
thority:
General Cavagnac, the military dictator of Paris,
who suppressed the nsurrecton, is of Irish descent,
and Of the once princely race of the kavanaghs of

SYMPATHY MIsPLACED.-The Journal of Com
merce says that the Mr.. Curtis, from England,
whose recent robbery by fellow-vOyager named
Robinson has awakened so much active sympathy,
is the hero of the following paragraph, copied from
the Liverpool Mercury of July Z:
&" Mr. Curtis, collector of rates and taxes in Sal.
ford for the last nine years, has abscOnded, and
effected his escape to America in the steamship
Niagara, which left this port on Saturday last. The

CLOSING OF THE FRENCH worcestershire
National Workshops for women were included in
the decree dissoIving these establishments generally
in the department of the Seine. Twenty-Five thou
sand women are thus left without occupation. The
resources placed at the disposal of the mayors are
insufficient to give them the succor which they are
entitled to, that succor consisting of two pounds OF
bread each, per day, whatever may be the family
Of the women so receiving aid. This state OF
things has caused about 400 of these women to wait
on the Minister of Public Works to demand assis-
lance. NJ Recurt having learned that several OF
them had large families, led them to hope that the
propositions which he intended making in their IA
vOr to the Committee of labor would be approved Of
and that the workshops might be again opened.
