The events in France are proceeding 81.
lently and almost impercepiibly towards
some violent catastrophe, which will test
the strength Of the present order of the
Government.
Our latest news from Paris desc RIDES the
general alarm which prevails that legi,i.
mist outbreak is at hand. The cause Of
royalty is gaining ground in many depart
ments, whilst q, Avignon Socialist process.
sions are taking place, with cries Of "Vice
Barbes I" "Vire Bianqu !" "P ire Robe.
spicrrei" We still have our doubts resPec.
ting tho character Of the threatened out.
break we deem il far more probable that
The agents of the Government, or The par.
( ties in the National Assembly circulate
these reports for their own political ends.
The accounts from all parts of Ireland
respecting the potato crop fill Us with the
deepest alarm and apprehension. In the
southern counties The disease has exhibited
i'self in the most unmistakeab!e form in
almost every locality.
! As we intimated last week, the Govern
ment having become fully apprsed Of an
organized scheme amongst the Chartisls
and Irish Conledefates 10 various parts Of
The country TO disturb the public tranquil.
~, and to make general attack upon life
and property, have followed up their pre-.
vious measures Of repression by further
extensive arrests. Ia Lancashire no few.
er than 40 persons have been included in
one indictmen, for conspiracy, md n true
bill having been found at the Liverpool
Assizcs, almost the whole have been taken
into custody and committed for trial.
