JAMES @. RowND, r. S.
NEW CONSTITUTION OF FRANCE.

This peculiar instrument creates but
little sensation; for there is nothing in it,
even to crafty sense Of novelty. The
public mind of the world is already famil-
lar with the devices and pretences Of des-
potism. There is no new principle in this
constitution. 1t is all Capitalization. Ii
merely guarantees the power of Dictator
to Louis Napoleon. True, il provides for
Legislative Department, but it gives them
no power independent of the Executive.
Its universal suffrage is therefore a shallow
absurdity.
What are we to expect, then for frances
future? We do not expect present things
to endure long enough for Louis Napo-
leon constitution to take effsct--not even
sixty days. Three attempts have been
made for the assassination Of Bonaparts.
This in less than forty days from his usur-
patton. Three more will not be made
without success. But, if things do not
come TO head in this way, it cannot be
that they will not in some other. Even
those who dispute the capacity Of man for
self government. and who sneer at a
French Republic, are wont to talk oi
French volatility; and that very quality
would bring matters to another crisis, with
little delay. 1t is not volatility, but ii is q
rsstlessness under conscious national
wrong; and until you make the French a
quiet people. however they may furnish
You arguments against the durability Of
republics, they will furnish us as many
against the permanency Of despotism.
True, the latter have lasted longer; but
they began first, and had the advantage
Of prior experiment. This experiment
lasted thousand years, and il in that
time il could moi prove itself stable, rs i
did not, we only ask a fortieth Of that time

TO rowNsH1p ASSESSORS.

The following circular has been issued
by the Auditor OF State to the County Au-
ditors. from which, it appsars the Township
Assessors will no, be enabled 10 enter upon
their duties until some time in March. As
SCISSORS will be notified as soon as the Blanks
are ready.
.se,g, COLUMBUS. Jan. "a. 1859.
SIR-I deem it proper to avail myself
OF the opportunity this circular affords, to
say, for the information Of County Audi
tors. Township Assessors, &C., that the
Tax law under which the assessment OF
1859 must be made, (unlsss special act,
reviving temporarily the former one. shall
be passed, } is not likely to receive the fnal
action of the Legislature until late in the
coming month. II is probable, therefore,
that Township Assessors will be delayed
entering on their duties until some time
be.ween the first and fifteenth of March.
II the time which may be left shall be too
short for them to get through their duties
within the period limited by law. they will
probably be authorized to appoint assist
ants when it may be necessary.
Respectfully.

The Bank Of England returns show
an increase Of more than half million
sterling in the circulation Of notes, as
compared with the corresponding period
of last year. The bullion held by the
Bank at the beginning Of December was
upwards of sixteen millions sterling.
The organs of the Austrian govern
ment are loud 10 their laudations Of Lou
is Napoleon. The Hungarian journals
disapprove Of his conduct.
1t is stated from Vienna that Prince
Schwartzenburg has desired the Sardin-
ian government to receive an Austrian
garrison in tie .Piedmontese Fortress
Two regiment of the garrison of BOlogne
have been ordered TO advance on the
road to Rome.
AUsrRIA.-At Vienna. on the 10th
Dec, at daybreak a special train arrived
from Hungary, at the terminus Of the
northern railro ID. It was composed Of
coaches, each of which contained a priso-
ncr with gendarmes. The prisoners
were Of both sexes ; the men in irons.--
1t is said the females were Kossuth's
sisters, and some Of the others, Hunga-
rian mobiles. Circumstances have occur
red in Hungary which have excited
strong SUSPECT, n Of the government here.
Four bank directors have resigned in
of the attacks made upon
them by the press.

Congressional Library.

twill be remembered that one Congress
ional library shared an Alexandrian fate,
when the British troops burnt the Capitol
in 1914. AS the nucleus OF fresh coIlec-
ton, the library of Thomas jefferson, con-
sising Of 1000 volumes. was purchased in
1915, for $4,000. TO this there has been
a steady accreiiOn. Five thousand dollars
have usually been.appropriated by Congress
each year for the purchase of highly val.
liable additions; and an average OF l 500
volumes has been procured annually
There were besides, the series of magnifi.
cent medals, struck by Demon, in comme-
moration Of Napoleon's campaigns, and
presented by the Emperor to the American
Government. maps, paintings and busts of
the several Presidents. The collection of
manuscripts was not of much importance.
The Congressional Library was one of
the largest in this country. Those of Har-
ward University. and of The Librnry Com
pany of Philadelphia, alone exceeded il, we
believe, in point Of numbers. But its pecu
liar value lay in it's rich accumulation of
historical materials; documents, speeches,
tracts. pamphlets, reports, &C., &c, which
made it almost indispensable u, the seat of
Government. No other collection can at
all supply its place.
