FRANCE on account of the Presidents speech at Dion,
and Gen. Changarner announced to the Assembly that
Louis Napoleon could not have the army to help make
himself Emperor. The Dion speech has created schsm
between the Assembly and President, which it will be
hard to heal. The Ministry chagrined by the
speech, but clung the President Lamartne has con-

his return from Warsaw, where he entertained by

BY LAST EVENINGS MAILS.

The MEXICAN BouNDARY.-We learn from the Ma.
ona Intelligencer that letters have been received in
Washington from El Passo del Norte, under date Of
April ID, stating that Lieut.. Whipple, Acting Chic
Astronomer OF the American Commission, had deter.
mined the initial point on the Rio Grande, where The
Southern boundary Of New Mexico strikes tina,
river, in latitude 80 degrees % min North, being the
latitude agreed on by the Joint Commission This
parallel of latitude was deduced from four hundred and
thirty astronomical observa tons eleven stars
On the Sd of April, Lieut.. Whippe met NJ. Salazart,
the Chief Astronomer OF the Mexican Commission,
who had also determined the point They then agreed
to incorporate their observations, and by giving equal
weightto each, to recommend to the Joint Commission
the result as the point to be adopted.
The Joint Commission had agreed to meet at the
initial pont above determined, the 2st April
ratfy the decision of the astronomers and to lay the
corner stone of the monument which to be placed
thereon.
AS the initial point should have been marked
the operations of the Commission would be west OF
the Rio Grande; all its members would then be beyond
the Rio Grande, except those stationed at the Astrono
mical Observatory near Ell Paso.

REVOLUTION IN PERU.

General technique, the new President received the
Executive authority on the Goth Of April. On the
same day a revolt occurred in the city of Arequipa,
which had its origin as follows: A company composed
of friends and adherens Of General assembled togeth
er for the purpose Of celebrating the inauguration In
the heat of their enthusiasm they hung banner in
scribed "Viva Jose Rufo Echinque!" and saluted it
with cheers. This disaseiu to the population, a
majority of whom friends Of Vvanco, the defeat
ed candidate. They collected in groups, and began to
cry out, Down with the banner!'' One Of the oppo-
site party Col Lopez, ordered out troop OF cavalry
and attempted to, disperse them. This brought on a
collision; barbados thrown up, general fight
| commenced, and each party began a plumber OF the
houses Of the other. The Project OF the city attempted
to que the disturbance, but without effect.
The people fired the town of San Francisco and
the barracks oil the soldiers; the bells rung in all
the Churches to call them together, and after 26 hours
of incessant fighting, the troops driven from the
city. Some Of the prominent inhabitants then exerted
themselves to restore peace. A deputation was sent
to the Perfect, who entered the city the 24h, amid
general reclamation. During the fight 80 persons
killed and wounded the soldiers being the greatest sui
| ferers.
At the latest date the 2Sh of April, there was still
some excitement among the citizens audit was feared
that the troubles were not wholly quoted.
