NEWS BY THE CALEDONIA,

The Geographic dispatches of the Caledonia
news are fuller in the Northern papers than those
| which have been received in the city. The Gale.
| dona arrived at Boston on the morning of the
Goth ; and if the mail had not failed from beyond
Philadelphia her letters would have been received
| here yesterday. We are anxious to see the papers
by the Caledonia, as the accounts given by tee-
graph of the affairs in Rome are confused and some
| what contradictory We give the Northern dis
patches below.
| ENGLISH PARLIAMENT.-The bill for the modi-
fcaton of the navigation laws has been carried in
the House OF Lords. by majority Of ten in favor
| of the Ministry. These laws may now be con-
sidered as virtually repealed. The result has given
| the wing Ministry new tenure of office.

ing for its object the removal of the Jewish dsa-
| b,ies, has been read second time, by larger

Lords, and without hearing the counsel for the
Crown, the Hon. Lords and Judges directed unan-
imously thai the errors assigned by the plaintiffs
could not be maintained by the arguments and
that the judgment of the Court of the Queens
Bench in Ireland, must stand affirmed. Ii Is now
expected that the sentence of transportation will be
carried into effect before the LIST proxirno 1t is ru
mored that the prosecution of Duffy is abandoned
SAXON OUTBREAK.-The whole of Continental
Europe seems ready to burst into one general con-
hagration. The quarrel between the Parliaments
throughout the various divisions of Germany and
their respective Princes, has reached the highest
pitch; and in Saxony fright conflict has
already taken place. 1t was decided in favor of
the people, or rather the Red Republican party,
who fought with the troops during seven hours on
the 9Th inst, when great loss of life occurred. The
railways were displaced, in order to prevent troops
from Berlin from arriving, but sufficient force Of
Russians having come up OPPORTUNITY, momen-
tary tranquility was secured by sheer military
force. The fight, however, was renewed on the
9th, and lrightful cannonading lasted all day,
until night separated the combatants. On the 7lh
the battle was again renewed, at O'Clock in the
morning. and the most deadly warfare was going
on in the streets, by the latest advces, up 20 6
O'Clock of that day.
Intelligence from Dresden to the Sth, states that
hostiiiies is still waged between the rovalsts and
insurgents, 10 the disadvantage of the latter, with
out any immediate prospect of their termination.
The members of the Provisional Government
have been outlawed and rewards offered for their
apprehension.
DISTURBANCES AT LEIPsIC.--At Leipsic, also.
disturbances have broken out, but after short
struggle between the military and the populace
they were suppressed. Several of the rioters were
killed.

Berlin to the Sth, state that an insurrecton had
broken out at Bresau on the 9th. On the 9TH the
troops and the people were fighting in the city.

THE MISUNDERSTANDING these commissions
are taking place the Austrian Empire is in actual
I.y af al.,4,xr h.
of the Hungarians. They are in possession of
Grananl, Raab and Ryraraw. In the meantime
Russia is advancing a large body of troops against
the victorious Hungarians. But all accounts con-
cur in representing the excitement Of the Hunga-
rans as raised to The highest PITCH and that some
thing more than the united forces of Russia and
Austria will be required to que this instruction.
Active endeavors are being made TO create
revolution in Gallaca, and in fact from Posen to
Pesth the whole country is involved, or on the
brink of actual hostilities.
The important fact is stated in the London
papers of the 1th inst. that joint note, the pro.
ducton of the courts of Great Britain and France,
has been addressed TO the Court of Petersburg,
ntimating their dsapproval of the Intervention of
Russia in the AUSTRIAN Hungarian disputes, and
insisting that such interference be Withdrawn.
RIOT AMONG FRENCH SoLDIERs.-A serious
riot has taken place in the barracks Of the 9TH
Light Infantry, stationed at the Hotel DIES Inva-
lides. SERGEANT Major Boychet, having had his
name placed upon the list of Socialists as candi-
date for the Assembly, was arrested The men
insisted on his release. A riot of serious charac-
ter ensued The officers were set at defiance. At
length Boychet was sent off to Vincennes but not
without great difficulty. The regiment has been
sent away from Paris. The same manifestations
were predominant in many reg iinents, as the So
casts, by the most unceasing efforts, continued to
seduce the soldiers from their duty.
RoME.-The French General marched on the
9th ult from Civita Vecchia. The account OF his
further progress is furnished by teegraphic des-
patches. Gen. Oudinot had set out on his march
for Rome, where, according TO every information,
he was called by the wish of the people, but hav-
ing met some more serious resistance than he
expected, he took up position at a short distance
from the city of Rome, and was watching the arr-
va! OF the expedition No date Is given, but it is
probable that Gen. OudinOt was near Rome Oh the
Both ult. On the 26th the Roman Constitutional
Assembly made the following decree: "The
Assembly, in consequence of the communications
made by the Triumvirate, rendered 10 them the
safety of the Republic, urging them to repel force
by force" During the sitlings it was stated by
Mazzini that the Triumvirs had received deputa-
ton of officers from Gen. Oudinot, who, on being
requested to assign reason for the occupation of
Civlta Vecchia, by an advanced foreign force,
stated That the first reason was to preserve the
Roman States from an Austrian invasion, which
had already advanced. The second was: To as
certain precisely what the sentiments of the popu-
laiion were in regard to the form of government
most convenient, and to seek TO put in train and
promote perfect reconciliation between Plus TX
and the people.
On the 9Th, the Constitutional Assembly re-
solved 10 adhere TO their resolution of opposing the
entrance Of the French.
Orders We're issued to undermine Milan This
probably means that orders were given to under
mine The Milvian Bridge, about two miles from
Rome on the road 10 Florence and blow it up in
case the French should attempt TO approach on
that side of the city,l on the approach of the
French on The side of the sea- board Cannon We're
planted on the road and the gates and streets that
lead to Cvta Vecchia. The long cornered gallery
erected by Pope Borgia, between the castle of St.
Angelo and the Vatican Palace was blown up with
powder, and the materials used to block up the en-
frances to the city.
A deputation of the Central Committee had pro-
tested against the invasion, and informed Gen.
Oudinot that Rome would resist his entrance by
force, and blow up the Quirinal, the Vatican, and
St. Peters, which were already undermined.
The French General replied, that his instruc-
