ST. JOHN, n. B. July l2. A. NJ.
Your EuXpress arrived here at o'clock
Forty MN psd before Calais open
ed his eyes, and sixty five more before
Portland got his copies. 1t is probable,
therefore, that owing to the inattentlon OF
the agents of the telegraph line you VIII
be unable to publish the news SO soon by
"a hours as you might have done.
The steamship Niagara. Capt. Ryrle,
with intelligence one week later from all
parts of Europe, arrived at Halifax at an
ea,ly hour Yesterday morning, and was
reported to leave for New ork ats o clock
She will be due at her wharf at late hour
on Saturday. The Niagara, brings 80

FRANCE.
The new law against clubs has already
been put in force. On Monday the minis
try introduced into the Legislative Assem-
bly, resolution for regulating the press.
NJ. Odillon Barrott states that it was only
intended as temporary measure to regu-
late the position of the press until the or
ganic law on the subject should be passed.
The new law is nearly the same as the
law of Louis Philippe. and powers arg
given for the temporary suppression of
every journal attacking the constitution or
making an appeal to arms.
The number of persons arrested at Ly-
ons, In consequence of the attempted insur-
rectIon, amounted to more than 200.
Gen. Cavaignac said, 81 fully agree
with the Hon. Gent. who has said that a
great country like France should not re-
main in state of insulation. 1t was es-
sential that we should form an alliance
with some government, but the question
was, what government should we select
10 whom should we address ourselves! to
Russia! to Austria! Those two powers
were engaged in struggles. We then
made overtures to great power, to Eng
land-and in doing SO, think we acted
in conformity with the wishes of the Con-
stituent Assembly.
It has been said that the English Gov
ernment only accepted our alliance in or
der to be able the better TO watch us.
Certainly, England would not become our
ally, had it not been her interest so to do,
but that interest is reciprocal, and if Eng
land has an interest In watching France,
France has an equal one in watching her
that reciprocal surveillance is the basis
of all alliances between Governments. In
reply to our application England accepted
our offers of alliance, and she did so, doubt
less, from wish to preserve peace.
think that the explanation l have given
will be a sufficient reply to the reproach
made against us of giving rise TO a new
coalition. (Hear, hear.)
The gallant General then stated he had
his part in the responsibilities attached to
the order Of the day, voted month since
by the Constituent Assembly, and explain
ed that in his opinion the danger was in
the reconstruction of the Northern Pow
crs, and in the humiliation of French in
fluence. 1t is against the two-fold eventu-
allty, continued the Hon. Gentleman, that
| wish TO guard the Government | did
not wish for war, and if am a partizan
OF peace, 1t is of honorable peace.
ROME.
The French ,Cithih the outer ,cQlIs of
the city.
After a severe bombardment, the SQUAD
rons OF the French army succeeded in es-
tablishing themselves within the outer
walls of Rome, early on the 22d ult. They
have since been occupied with operations
for acquiring possession of the inner bas-
tions and defences, but up TO the Odd and
9th, they had not made much progress.
Every inch of ground was stoutly defen-
ded by Garibaldi, who still continues to
animate his troops to resistance.
Advices from Calcutta to the 9Th, and
from Bombay to the 2Ist of May have
been received, and are satisfactory in the
extreme. The country is restored to per-
feet quiet, and the commercial report:
states that at the close of the business sea
son, only small stocks of goods were lef
at Bombay and in the interio markets.
