LATE FROM EUROPE.
Continued Difficulties IN France-Louis
Napoleon Bonaparte Candidate for the
Presidency in France-War in Germany
going on-Revolution in Prussia.
The express steamer Buena Vista, belong
ing to portion of the newspaper press OF
New York, arrived at Boston at an early
hour on Saturday morning, in 40 hours
from Halifax. She brings the foreign ad-
vices by the Caledonia, which vessel reach
ed Halifax on Thursday last at IL M, and
left an hour after for New York. The
Caledonia left Liverpool on the 9th ult.,
and brings intelligence one week later than
that brought by the Cambria.
FRANcE.-France is in state of extreme
agitation. The resignation of Louis Napo-
leon postpones trouble for the present, and
perhaps altogether. There were at the last
accounts now less than six candidates in the
field for the Presidency of the Republic,
viz NJ. de Lamar,ine, NJ. Theirs, M. Mar
rast, Prince Louis Napoleon Bonaparte, Gen.
Cavaignac, and M. Caussadier, late Project
Of Police.
The Orleans party will support NJ. Theirs,
and Berger, the celebrated orator, has de-
clared in his favor, The Legi,ima,is,s are
divided between Theirs and Lamar,ine.-
The Legitimalists are the same party who
were in favor of the restoration of King
Henry V.
If The election for President was to take
place at once there is but little doubt that
Prince Louis Napoleon would be elected,
for under the prestige of the Bonapar,e name,
and his recent very discreet course in mat
tiers connected with the revolution, he pos
sesses popularity which would almost Ger
tainly secure his election. The National
Assembly forseeiDg that in the event of the
election being held Immediately, he would
undoubtedly be returned in every electoral
college in France, they have already altered
the constitution 10 meet this difficulty, and
have ordered that the President instead of
being elected directly by the people, unless
he has an absolute ma orily of votes given,
is to be selected by the National Assem-
bly,, from five persons returned BY the peo-
pie.
The election of Prince Louis Napoleon
as Colonel of the Fourth Legion of the Ma
,ional Guards of the Baulcue, vice Dalton
Suee, resigned, has been definitely declared.
and thus has the prince appeared upon the
Stage in another character.
Another aspirant at the head of affairs is
the Prince of Leuchenberg, son Of the
Prince Eugene, and son-in-law of the En-
peror of Russia, having married the Princess
Olga, who although foreigner is still a ia
vorite with the French people.
PRUss1A.-At Berlin, on the l4h inst. a
collision took place with the burgher guard,
arising out of an attempt to dispense some
workmen who had gone to the Minister to
demand work or money. Being refused,
the guard attempted to disperse them, and
five men were wounded. The news spread
like lightning.
Barbados were formed, and the people
having discovered that the Arsenal was left
unprotected, at IL O'Clock at night made an
attack upon this building, and plundered it
of about 1000 stand of arms and Of all the
trophies of war which it contained.
The crowd kept possession of the build
ing till 10 O'Clock, and then retired. The
next day was quiet, but one of the deputies
moved that the Assembly should send away
all The troops and put themselves under the
protection Of the people, this was carried
and the government resigned.
At Prague the King having refused to
confirm the provisional government, and
Prince Wiudschagra,z having erected Bate
ries round the town, the mob and the stu
dents rose en- masse and demanded arms.
THE HoLsrEIN WAR.-War in Denmark
continues undated. At a conference of
the Kings of Sweden and Denmark and The
Grand Duke Constantine, at Copenhagen,
which was attended by the British Minister.
the Russians on The behalf of Denmark de-
manded that the Germans should evacuate
both Duchies before any negotiations were
entered into, and ,hati Schleswig was given
up Russia would claim Holstein according
to the treaty with the Danes and Paul !.
The accounts from Mecklenbur report the
perpelrstlon of serious outrages by The pea
santry, 5000 Of whom having formed band,
and commenced the work of confagIa,io
pilIsge, aud assassination. The dwelling
of one of the noblemen at Jorgeland has
been burnt and Basedrid, Joenack, and
Burgschli'z, the property of Count Hahn,
are expected to be attacked next. The ac-
counts from other parts of Germany are e.
qusIly gloomy.
Observation-Disclosures is probably no
employment or recreation which has slron-
ger tendency to purify the heart, improve
the taste, or strengthen the physical oonsli-
tuition, than love of horticulture. If man
would truly enjoy his garden, take delight
