The M orning's Nsws.--ssven Days Later
from Europe. Asto unding Intsllgencs
from France.
The stsamship Europa, with seven days later
Advicss from Europe, arrived yesterday ct Halifax
During the Last night We received tslegraphie re-
bort e her news IL Is Of the msst astounding
character, and of the most overwhelming impor-
tAnee.
In one word, the late republic has ceased TO
oxit, and Louis Napoleon il the absolute dictator
Of France. II ID not necessary here to recapitulate
The practical fulhlment Of the much dreaded
coop eaGt which has been hanging for several
weeks IN terroren over the National Assembly
1t has fallen upon them like thunder clap. They
IRE Imprisoned or dispersed; and every attempt to
yesrfaniss the scattered fragments still at large is
promptly put down. Cromwell himself, in the dis.
solution of the Long Parliament, did not exhibit
greater degree Of dashing audscity than Louh
Nspolson in this coxp d'aat The consummate
secresy with which his plans were arranged, 10
only surpassed by the mastery skill and ntrspidty
with which they we're carried out The whole move
ment is worthy the indomitsble courage of the
great Napoleon. To overcome the opposition Of
Ane Assembly, ana 70 SCI asiae the consult at'on
required the most prompt and fearless aston, upon
plan of the most carefully considered measures of
precaution. 1t was done; and France is revolu-
tionised at o single blow. II was clean piece Of
work and Louis Napoleon has shown that, if he
was equal to the most audacious act Of usurpation
he has also had the nerve to grapple the fall mea-
sure of the terrible responsibility.
