AND 1NIEhESlING 1911 ~ OAEAN'
We find in our California files an ae-
count of recent visit to Japan, which ap-
pears to be somewhat of an improvement
on the singular aud jealous non-inter-
course policy of that people, though they
are sufficiently afflicted that way:
The brig Rose, Capt. Anderson, on her
recent trip from Singapore to San Fran
cisco, was disabled and compelled to
make for the nearest port, which proved
to be village called Nipaking, in Japan,
with population of about $4,000. 1t is
believed this is the first time a foreign
vessel ever entered the port, and no soon
err had Capt. Anderson dropped anchor
than his vessel was surrounded by 800
Japanese boats, who kept constant guard
around him until his departure. He was
after some difficulty. allowed to go singly
on shore, and was escorted by sixty men
short distance through the principal
street. All the places of business were
closed, although Capt Anderson when he
neared the port, saw an extensive mar
ket house open, and an animated trade
appeared to be going on. He was treat
ed kindly, and furnished with sixty men
to repair his vessel, although while he
remained, three or four thousand addi-
tional police were brought from an ad-
joining island. They appeared to be re-
joiced at his departure.

LATER FROM EURoPE.-The steamer
Niagara arrived on the 18th inst, bring
ing later news from Europe.
The engrossing topic OF attention
throughout Europe is the approaching
crisis in the affairs of France.
The assembly, despite the recent evil
dences OF the unmistakable popularity of
President Bonaparte, seem resolved to
provoke him to direct collision. Eve
ry step taken by either party is evidently
watched with intense interest by the other
countries of Europe.
On the Goth, the President delivered
the crosses and medals to the successful
French exhibitors at the London Exhibit
ton, and delivered speech calculated to
increase his popularity among the wor-
king classes and artizans of the country,
and with the moderate republican party.
In the first of his speech, frequent allu-
sion is made to the Republic.
Many persons previously devoted to
General Cavaginac have declared their
determination to support Napoleon as the
only means of saving the Republic.
An extraordinary article has appeared
in the Constitutional, wherein direct at
tack is made upon the highest names in
France. Among others, Changarnier,
and NJ. Beringer, are charged with being
members of secret committee, having
for their object the overthrow of the Go
vernment The chief rancor of the wri-
ter is directed against the Orleans and
Legitimist parties. No newspaper arti-
Gle ever produced so much excitement in
Paris.
This article has led to interrogations
being addressed to the Minister. The
Constitutional was believed to be in the
interest of the Government and Ministry
who were supposed to be aware of its
production if not assisting in the prepare
ton of the article. Hence the excite
ment.
1t is generally believed that the demand
for urgency with reference to the bill on
the subject ofthe responsibility of the Pre-
sident, will be referred by the Assembly.

was doubtless as painfully disappointed as any
OF his followers, at not receiving cordial and
earnest support from the Creoles of Cuba. A
Spaniard by birth, and long a resident of the
island, he was intimately acquainted both with
the unmitigated tyranny of the government and
the dissatisfaction Of the people; and in his
earnest efforts to carry the blessings of freedom
to his countrymen, he deserves the praise, not
the execrations of the Free fhFe
Let US not be misunderstood We believe
that the people possess the right to change their
form Of government, when, in their estimation,
1t becomes too oppressive and burdensome
And If the majority of the inhabitants Of Cuba
desire to throw off the Spanish yoke, then was
Lopez not pirate, hut martyr to liberty.
The barbarous policy pursued by the author
lties OF the island toward the prisoners must
have fatal reaction. The worse thmn useless
massacre of captiyes will be like the sowing OF
the dragons teeth; and their blood crying from
the ground will demnnd vengeance from their
countrymen and friends. Though it is doubt
full whether the union of these States could
survive the annexation of Cuba, yet we think
her independence of Spanish rule is question
OF time only. AS certain as the future becomes
the present, Cuba will be free and from The
grave of Lopez and his followers will spring
the armed bands that shall strike off her fetters
and proclaim her emancipation.

GOLD IN AUsTRALIA.-The British colonists
are overjoyed at the discovery Of the fact BY
MIR. Hargraves, that the country, from the
mountain ranges to an indefinite extent in the
interior, is one immense gold field. 1t has pro-
duced a tremendous excitement in the town OF
Bathurst and the surrounding districts.
The London Standard remarks that aassunl-
ing the auriferous soil of Bathurst will prove
as rich as that of California, we anticipate re-
suits from the discovery of its wealth very diff
ferent from those who, we must say it, have
made California by-word and a reproach In
the first place, the Bathurst district is tolera-
bly, well peopled, and subject to and familiar
with government of law. 1t lies about two
hundred miles inland, so as not to be easily ac-
cessible to royers from the sea; and it is not
more than that distance from Sydney, the seat
of government, to the w. N. w. of which il is
situated. Above all, the country is occupied
by an exclusively British population, who, what
ever their momentary excitement, WILL from
their natural instinct, soon settle down to order
ly and systematic industry. Supposng then
the gold fields of Bathurst to approach at all
nearly to the richness of the gold fields of Cali.
fornia, we may safely conclude that they will
be twofold more productive than the North
American treasure-land, upon which u multitu
dinous medley of not the best specimens Of all
nations have lately alighted."

From the New York Tribune.l

Those who have latterly >contented them
selves with glance at the current intelligence
from Europe, thinking its dullness worth no
more, will do well to resume the habit of care
full reading a.Ds3
In regard to France, there seems to be no
longer reason to doubt that the Prince de
Joinvile has resolved to initiate the example
OF Louis Napoleon, and seek return to France
by means of an election, either the National
Assembly or to the Presidency. 1t is said that
he will first try the former, with view, of course,
to the latter. A special election is about to be
held to fill the vacancy in the department of
Finisterre, where the Prince is exceedingly
popular, especially in the maritime city Of
Brest. He will be elected, and then the ques-
tion will be on the abrogation of the decree of
banishment, which now forbids him, as well as
all the other members of his family, to return
to France. This it is supposed will be accom-
plished; he will return and take his seat ;
next he will be put in nomination for the Presi-
dency, and will himself be at Paris to direct
the manguvres of the electoral campaign. 1t
would but add another to the strange yicis
situdes of affairs, should this descendant of
Bourbon kings appear, few months hence
before the National Assembly to take the oath
of fidelity to the republic as its President.
The Austrian emperor, without ado, annuls
the constitution of March A. lS49, and restores
his empire in name, as it has long been in
reality, to all the advantages Of unmixed abso
lutism. Henceforth it is announced that the
ministers of Austria are responsible TO no other
political authority than the monarch, and know
no other source of power To him they swear
unconditional fidelity; his resolutions concern
ing the laws and maxims of justice they are to
carry out, and the Retch@ath, or council of the
empire, is now his council alone, and is to give
its opinion when the emperor demands it. After
these ordinances his imperial majesty, in let
ter which might well pass for capital joke,
hands over the constitution to his prime min
lister and the president of the Reichsrath, for
them to decide by ripe and serious considera-
ton whether it can be maintained and carried
out
We welcome these imperial ordinances with
profound satisfaction. They tell the truth, and
fling away the mask They come in time, too, 10
match the last manifestation of the other great
German government.
