| Another distinguished man has Just been esta-
blishing with journalism in France direct and avow-
ed relations. Gen. CAvAIGNAc has lately been re-
ceived, by the vote Of large majority of stock
holders, into the editorial council of the Steele
Henceforth this journal may be considered as hav-
ing finally broken away from its suspicious daily
ing with socialism and ultra democracy, which have
marked its course during the past year, to become
the mouthpiece of Gen. Cavaignac and the sup
porter of his candidacy for the Presidency in 1852
This is deemed most important move in the re-
publican party, and will operate its division in the
campaign which is opening. The Presse is already
out with his former bitterness and ability against
the pretensions Of the General. If Gen. Cavaignac
is ever President Of the Republic, it will be in spite
of the opposition of democratic and socialist France
and with the aid Of the monarchical parties voting
| for him, as they voted for Louis Napoleon Bona
parte, to save them from the Red Republic until
times shall rpen for the restoration of the monarchy
The party in France that would vote for Cavaignac
bona fde, as the complete representative of their
opinions is ooinconsderable togivc him any chance
of success. But the extreme Left, representing
those parties in the country which the General SO
energetcally crushed in June, l848, and during his
six months dictatorship, will never accept or for
give him. AT a recent meeting Of the whole Left
the question of the Presidency was broached, and
stormy debate ensued. VIcToR HUGO was pro-
posed in opposition to Cavaignac /; LAMARTINE was
mentioned by very few; Girardin, of La Presse,
put forth one M. NADAUD, hoping, being unable to
attain power directly, 10 place in power one whom
he could use. Many settled on CAvAIsNAc, not as
their first choice, but as sincere anti-monarchist
the avowed advocate Of universal suffrage, and the
only man Of the Left to whom portions Of the Right
could be induced to rally.
The Constitutional of yesterday, after declar-
ing that apprehension as to the future is rapidly
seizng the public mind throughout France, arrest
ing enterprise, checking industry, Withdrawing capi-
tai, attributes it all to that fatal clause Of the const
tuition which, making majority of three-fourths
necessary for revision Of the constitution, renders
impossible the reelection Of M. Bonaparte:
"No person. it adds, "beeves in the natural working
Of the existing constitution person believes possible to
reach 1882 and toaverse harmessy consecutive general
elections And you ask the first you meet either in
Paris or the Provinces how long he supposes this state Of
things may last every one, either from instinct from
mon sense, from reflection, will reply, This cannot con-
tnue six months longer !"
Then, acknowledging the utter hopelessness of
revision in the present state of parties q do not
know man or journal that believes it possible,
the forms of the law be Observed the Constitu-
tionnel adds:
SIN ordinary and calm times under an old and regular
Government, would with extreme repugnance the
stuton touched in the and form prescribed by
law. Under regime like ours after audacous and vo
lent revolution imposed upon the country by conspraors who
brag of under constitution made in moment Of crisis,
in city where martial law of force, cannot hesitate
believe and say that the country ITSELF the constituted
authorities in its under its CONTROL have the right to
touch the constitution at moment and that it is their duty
do quick possible These elementary truths
They notions of the meres good To
them is TO demonstrate them"
The Assembly resumes its sttings to-day. One
of the first bills for discussion is that proposing to
allow the unrestricted sale by oricrs in the streets
of all journals, without respect Of politics. This
bill is attempted to be superseded by another pro-
hibting indiscriminately the sale of all. This last
is really preferable TO the stau quo, which gives in
practice most unjust privileges to ministerial and
favored sheets.
| see in Swiss paper, under date of Berne,
April II, that the first convoy of Italian and Hun
garian refugees had just arrived in that city, under
the command of Col. DuRR. They were lodged in
the cavalry barracks. These refugees are on their
way to the United States, via France. A good
many Of them had fought under the immediate COM
mand of kossuTH. A correspondent of the Gazette
Of Cologne, writing from Consantinope, says:
''The Prince Of Schwazenberg has declared the Porte
that another representative Of Austria Constannope would
not be nominated until the two Governments had to
understanding respecting the Hungarian refugees still
Kuayeh Theeupon the Dvan had authorized the Ottoman
ambassador Vienna retire from his post if he Judged
proper do for, touching this question: well known
that the Dvan restore all the refugees to liberty to
which Austria objects"
Gen. FLoREsTAN PEPE, elder brother of the Gen.
WIN. PEPE who distinguished himself during the
late Italian revolution, and who is now refugee re-
sident in Paris, has just died at Naples. Gen.
Florestan Pepe was himself distinguished Libe-
raj, constantly refusing, during lS4S and ls49, to
accept command in the reactionst armies. It was
William Pepe, the actual refugee in Paris, with
whom LAMART1NE in his younger days fought
duel, provoked by slur which, in one Of his
poems, he cast upon Italian manhood of the pre-
sent day.
MANN, the heroic defender Of Venice, the truest,
perhaps the only true hero and really great man
that recent Italian history has produced, is also in
Paris, teaching Italian for his support He was
lately offered by this Government the usual pittance
allowed 10 political refugees. He respectfully de-
clined it, saying that as yet he had been able to
support himself respectfully, and hoped to continue
| 10 do so.
