France and Louis Napoleon.

The late European intelligence informs us
of rupture in the French Cabinet, which is
likely to cause serious troubles in The govern
ment. President Bonaparte has removed his
late ministers for Disagreement with him on
some matters of administrative policy (it is not
certainly known what), and formed new
cabinet Of men little known out Of their parti-
cular departments.
Two questions arise for the practical thinker
First, why hns the President changed his
Cabnell Secondly, why has he taken new
min isters without parliamentary influence, and
without the public confidence7 The answer
to the first inquiry is, probably. that he has ul-
terror designs of policy in which the late minis
,ers could no, concur: believing them to be un-
favorable 10 the liberties of the nation. In
word it is highly probable the Presidents aim
is to establish, himself firmly in his present pow
er-lnyng aside, however, the badge of The
Republic, and assuming the royat dignity and

authority. Has this intention not shown itself
ever since his elevation to powerl One Of the
first acts of his administration was to enter on
the Italian war-a palpabe attempt to repress
the gallant energies of the Italian people in be-
half of liberty and free government, and d.
rect violation Of the laws and wishes OF his
country. |, is we'll knewn that the people of

in opposition TO the very spirit which placed
him ut the head Of French Affairs. And fer

rising spirit Of liberty among he unhappy hal"

them might spread over Northern Europe, ,swee-

He writes letter of graduation to the tespols

enemies of his country: the opposers Of its

OF liberty! Such acts need no commentary.
They speak too distinctly the heart-fet wish of
the French President to clothe himself, at The
earliest practicable period, in royal purple.
This intention explains the second inquiry
we have raised. Unable TO control the clever
and experienced ministers in his late Cabinet
the President seeks out for those who have no
national reputation; who are no leaders Of par
ties or factions and whom he expects 10 use as
his ready loo!s in the accomplishment Of his
ambitious schemes. But has he no, been guilty
of great hlnnder7 He has himself little solid
popularity: no military glory, no civil repntn-

to his present post almost solely on The ,epu,a.

cess1 We think the President has taken
step fatal 10 his wild project. His weak minis.
,ers. SO far from aaording him aid, will be the
means of reducing him and themselves to con-
tempt. They will excite tho ridcnlc of all
France. They will stir up again the discord
Of faction in that unhappy country, and thus
open the field for new disturbances, revolutions
and bloody scenes.

ANOTHER WHITEwAsH.-Thc editor Of

of correspondent, gives the following
recipe for a whilewash. We have pub
lished good many recipes for this pur-
pose, but believe we have never published
this. lie recommends it as most excel.
lent, as cheap aud durable wash fer
wooden fences and buildings. He thinks
that il owes its durbilily to the white yitrol
which it contains.
Take a barrel and slake a bushel Of
freshly burned lime in it. by covering The
lime with boiling water. Alter it is slack
ed. add cold water enough to bring it to
the cousistence, OF good whitewash. Then
dissolve in water. and add one pound OF
white vitriol (sulphate Of zinc) and nne
quart Of fine salt. To give this wash a
cream color, and one half pound of yellow
ochre. in powder. TO give it a fawn
color, add one fourth Of pound ofIndian
red. To make handsome gray stone
color. add one half pound Of French blue
and one fourth pound of Indian red. A
crab will be made by adding one half
pound Of burnt sienna. and one fourth
pound of Venilian red. For brick or stone.
instead of one bushe of lime, use half
bushel of lime aud half bushel Of hydrau-
lie cement.

Mr.. CALHOUN AND Ma. BENTON
Mr.. Beuton, in one of his illusions to Mr..
Calhoun, makes the following statement
"A Senator of the United States, he
had sworn 10 support the Constitution, and
twice attempted TO commit treason against
his country, and again was willing TO re-
new the infamy. In 1882, Jackson would
have hunged him as high as aaman. which
was seven FIVE feet six inches-the warrant
was in the hands Of the Attorney General,
who was ordered to have it served upon
the next move on the par, of John &. Cal
houu, who, when informed oflhis by Lctch-
CT. Of Kentucky, was frightened into chill,
quailed, and from that hour the nulliica>
ton OF '32 was dead"
Admitting this statement to be tue, that
the notification Of 80 was dead from that
hour, i; is little consoling TO reflect that
it did not die until it had killed the high
tariff of 49,. and the system of protection
forever. But so far from il being dead,
we shall be somewhat surprised If il does
Lot We, consign Mr.. Benton himselfto the
tomb. The notification Of '32 was moth
ing more nor less than the bold and pa
trlolic assertion and maintenance Of the
rights and remedies Of tho States against,
the usurpatiuus Of The General Government:
In other words, it was the putting in prac-
lice Of the doctrines. incucated by JeAer-
sou aud Madison, now admitted, by the
