The number of registered emigrants from
this country from 1925 to 1850 (inclusive) il
2,622,6l7. Assuming the registers from which
the land and emigration commissioners have
made this return to be correct, they give only
Abe number of those persons who left the coun.
try with determination to settle permanently
elsewhere. However, as the number Of those
who, having left the country, without any in
tention to seek new permanent homes, have been
induced to settle abroad, is probably about CON-
pensated by the number Of those who sickened
of emigration and returned to the place of their
nativity, the sum mentioned above may be as
sumed TO represent with tolerable accuracy the
aggregate emigration during the period. The
total emigration of the last quarter of CEN
fury may, therefore, be stated ut two millions
and a half. 1t is not easy to ascertain the exact
number of emgrants who have settled in the
United States, for many who have sailed for the
British North American colonies have proceeded
onward to the States, and few have re-emi.

Striking rough balance, however, it would APP
pear that about one million of the two and
half millions of British emigrants have become
SOUTHAMPTON, Thursday, July 81.
The new Yankee clipper yacht America ar.
rived at Cowes this morning, from New York
and Havre, having undergone some embelish-
ments at the latter port. She is exciting con-
siderable interest among the members of the
royal yacht squadron and other yacht clubs at
Cowes, and will, doubtless, be visited by great
number Of persons interested in nautical af.
fairs. The America is apparently very fine
vessel, and will be no insignificant competitor in
point of speed with tho English yachts Her ap-
pearance is somewhat novel, and she would evil
IDENTIFY sail to comparatively better advantage in
a strong breeze than with light winds, such as
are sometimes experienced during the royal
yacht squadron regattas The America has al
ready been beaten in trial of sailing with an
American yacht called the Maria. but, notwilh-
standing this, it will be advisable that her speed
should not be considered too lightly by any
English vessels entering the lists against her.
FRANCE.
Advces from Paris are dated July 3lst, even
ing.
The committee on the bin authorizing the
city Of Paris to contract loan of fifty millions
of francs, has adopted the bill without modi6ca-
ton, and chosen N. Vtet az reporter.
The Bourse recovered in great measure yes
terday from the depression Of Wednesday. The
five per cents opened at 95f Sc, and closed at
95f 55c. for the account; the three per cents
closed at 57f zoe.
DENMARK.
Letters from Copenhagen state that the selec
ton of Prince Christian of Glucksburg, as heir
presumptive to the throne of Denmark, was
soemnly ratified on The 9th nit by all the men,
bers Of the royal family of that country 10
despite of all assertions to the contrary, il ap
pears certain that the Emperor Of Russia has
given his full and entire consent to this solution
of this long pending question.
GERMANY.
The proofs Of the influence the Diet Of the
Confederation is exercising in the governments
of the several States, multiply The policy of
not reducing to form and publishing federal
law suppressing the whole or portions of the
granted in I84s, but encouraging
the different States to do the work of suppress.
sion in detail, is being carried on steadily. Thus
the crash of falling constitution is no novelty
in Germany. and is now heard without surprise
But the circumstances that accompany the de.
cline and fall are sometimes worthy Of note. In
Hesse the constitution fell under the ar
force of Prussia and Austria; was suspended
for martini law, to be legally decreed out Of ex-
istence few months later In Mecklenburg
and Saxony, the old Diets have
superseded the new chambers In all the States
the constitution Of Frankfort has been set aside
Now the turn Of Anhalt Dessau has arrived, and
the constitution of that State is simply sup
pressed by decree, somewhat remarkable for
the language in which it is couched II is the
first instrument of the kind in which the alliance
Of the German governments against the results
of the revolution is openly avowed. Ii appears
also, from the same document that all the con-
cessions of lS48 we're made in the certain hope
that they would fail and be ruinous to the land,
though nothing of such an impression on the
mind of the sovereign can be trnced in the or.
ders and DEGREES creating the institutions now
on the contrary, they sre full of the
brightest anticipatiors and confidence in the
manner in which they would be used The be-
ginning and the end stand in glaring contrast to
ench other, and if the German princes met the
revolution half way, and conceded in some cases
more than their subjects demanded, certainly
more than they were prepared TO use wisely,
IT il scarcely prudent now to nvow they did Il
in the hope the people would be ruined by the
gift and express kind of satisfaction that this
lamentable result has happened The conces
sions were accompanied by no protest of hav.
ing been made under compolsion, nor did they
contain word If warning Of the probable ruin
they would inhict, though il appears to have
been foreseen. The manner in which they are
now recalled is needlessly offensive, and, in
deed, humiating, even to those to whose hands
the power has returned. How, in any possible |
hereafter, an escape from the conclu |
sions that must be drawn from such declarations
win be found, it il difficult to see The neces-
sity of the revocation ia not here in question.
but the policy of the mode in which It is effected.
AUSTRIA.
A Pesth corr spondent Of the LLOYD makes
mention of report that Bonis and Jozipovicb |
are condemned to death, and that the remaining
members of the Hungarian convention are to be |
imprisoned for periods varying between two and |
len years. II is added that several political Ar.
rests have taken place in Pesth; among those
mentioned is Madame Dembnski the Younger.
