Cavaignac to surrender the authority which has
been conceded to him, and which, perhaps, might
again unloose all the wild passions of the Pari
multitude. However, General Cavaignac has in
tlmated that his will be peace policy; and If he
adheres to that wise resolution, not suffering the
temper of France to be reused by the war which
prevails IN Italy, nor alarmed by "the cloud which
appears in the east of Europe" the French may
now apply their genius, undisturbed by foreign
Nowers, 10 the solution OF the problem, whether
republic is suited to their happiness and will
promote their civilization.
The arrest of NJ Emile Grardin during the In
sunectien, and his detention during twelve days,
friends of real liberty No one pretands that he
had any connection with the nsurgents but In
the Prcsse journal. Of which he is the able editor
he has continually !eproached the government
of February with having signed ga promise
to pay" the, people in the. current coin of
liberty, which has been dishonored. A few
days ago, II was very currently reported
that M. Girardin would be expatriated with
out beng brought up for trial but on We'd
nesday morning this able gentleman was set at
liberty. During eight days he was kept an secret,
and tor two or three hours in cell under ground.
This unexplained act of tyranny has been regarded
as a deadly blow aimed at the liberty of the press
and the freedom OF the subject IN France. AT
present little despotlsm may. be overlooked and
excused but when the immediate danger sh all be
over, the press will claim its inalienable rights,
and personal liberty must be secured, or fresh po
litcal troubles will inevitably ensue.
The Paris journals of Wednesday, the 9th inst,
represent that the city is toleraby free from dan
ger. Some of the insurgents still hover about in
the suburbs, and cut off the sentinels when they
a,e isolated. A complete disarmament has taken
place of all those ACCOMPLISHMENTS where the Ma
tiona Guards joined the insurgents, and indeed of
all those who failed in their duty
About one hundred thousand soldiers are
now really in the capital, and as many more volun-

Thursday was fixed for the funeral ceremony to
be observed IN Paris, and throughout France. The
remains of the victims of the late insurrec,on are
to be deposited under the column of July. A
funeral service will be performed in all the places
OF worship IN Paris and In every commune In
France. Arrests OF very respectable persons con-
tnue 10 be made upon the charge of being actively
implicated in the instruction. A clue has been
discovered to the murderer of the Archbishop of
Paris. The departments seem toerably quiet.
The celebrated M. de Chateaubrland died on Tues
dav last.
The proceedings of the National Assembly, on
Wednesday night, concluded with vote of CEN
sure upon M. Carnot, the Minister of public In
struction, for destructive doctrines circulated
under his authority, in book entitled Manuel
Republican," wherein the rights of families are
attacked, ard the republic is declared to have
power to appropriate property, and to inter-
fere with private capital. M. CARROTS doc
trines are simply those of Louis Blanc, and
a
conclusive condemnation OF the principles of the
Communists. M. Carnot has resigned. The
funeral ceremony IN connection with the interment
OF the victims who fell in the lnsurrection, took
place with great pOmp OF proceeding on Thursday.
The Bourse was-closed, and all business suspend
ed on this solemn occasion.
According to accounts from Italy, a pitched bat
tie between the Pedmontese and Austriaus has be-
come IMMINENT IT not inevitable, as Charles AL
bert was paralysed by the Austrian occupation of
Verona.
Accounts from Augsburg, eff the I'd inst, state
that through the Intervention of the Bavarian and
has been Withdrawn. The only control hereafter
to be exercised will be confined the prevention
of the transport of the materials of war.
Alexander Sharpe, 6" a painter charged with
sedition, riot, &C., tried at the Central Crl-
minal Court yesterday, but the case had not con-
cluded in time tor a report in the evening papers.
The Standard Of last night contains an address,
signed by thirty five Irish peers, and several Irish
members of parliament, calling on her Majesty's
ministers to put down reasonable clubs, &c, in
Ireland
The whole of Europe still continues IN state of
great excitment. In spite of the reiterated state
ments that Denmark and Germany had arrived at
some pacific adjustment respecting the duchess up
to the last accounts no appearances OF settlement
of the dispute visible but considerable forces
were being marched to the seat of war.
In Berlin great excitement prevailed up to the
1st instant. Continual assemblages OF the people
kept the Prussian capital IN agitation, pressing up
on the Minister some impossible request The
reports which were perpetually brought to Berlin
from the Polish frontiers, respecting the movements
of the Russian army, added to the alarm but at
present no trustworthy account OF the hostile pro-
gress OF the Russians has reached us.
The most important event which has taken
place IN the German Parliament at Frankfort has
been the election OF Archduke John as Lieutenant
General of the Germanlc Empire The Prince
had 1876 votes recorded in his favor; Baron Won
Gagem, the President of the Constituent ASSEMBLY,
81 The Archduke is liberal in politics, and
thoroughly practical man. He is the present repre-
sentative of the Emperor at Vienna, and in thu
capacity is expected to open the Austrian Diet.
This Is the first practical step towards German
unity; and Prussia at this juncture can scarcely
present any serious impeachment to the success OF
her more fortunate rival of the house of Austria.
The decision of the Assembly was celebrated at
Frankfort with great rejoicngs. The committee
on International affairs has pursued moderate
course, and declines the repeated proposale of
members and corporations to enter into an aance
with France and the United States. 1t demands
more authentic reports respecting the movements
of the Russians on the Polish frontiers, and in
slsts that the army shall be raised to equal the
numerical force of the Russians, and shall be
placed on the war footing. The announcement of
the appointment of Archduke John as Vicar-Gene-
raj has caused considerable excitement amongst
the higher circles of society In Berlin, but not ge-
morally.
The German and Sclavonan quarrel seems to
increase in intensity. The Germans and the lily
rans have also had a sanguinary engagement at
Weiskircheu.
AT Bucharest all business is suspended on ac-
count of the cholera. We regret to announce that
this fatal scourge has now appeared in the capital
of ST. Petersburgh, under circumstances calcula-
ted to inspire very considerable alarm.
In Italy the military operations OF Charles Albert
are suspended from some unexplained cause. In
the meantime the Austrlans have repossessed them
selves of almost the whole of the Venetian pro-
ylnces, and they are threatening Venice itself; E
Austrians the whole of the material of war, and a
large park OF siege artillery Were amongst the
spos. The communications between Lombardy
and Vienna are re-opened by this surrender.
II is said that the Piedmontese about TO make
decisive stroke against Verona; but they are slow
in their operations. The II, 600 men Of Durando
will be marched to Allessandria to relieve that
garrison, which will thus be enabled to take an ac
tive part in the war. There was report that Ra-
dct2ky was about to march to Milan.
Rome continues in distracted state. Mobs
