New YoRK, May 7.-Englahd.-A remark
able statement appears in the London Tines,
respecting the course to be pursued by Aus
tria, Prussia and Russia, in the event of Lou
is Napoleon assuming the title of Emperor,
the substance Of which, is, that Prince
Schwarzenburg had addressed a circular to
the European courts expressing his cOnvic-
ton that Napoleon was about to erect an i'm
peTial throne, adding that Austria felt no
alarm, and advocating the claims of the Pres
ident to the friendship and alliance of con-
servatiye governments. Prussia answered
this circular on the 18th, and Russia on the
29th of February. The tenor of both re-
plies, is, that the two powers looked upon the
design neither with favor nor hostility; that
they believed he is disposed to the foreign
policy of his uncle, and is now aiming to sep
arate powers in order to profit hereafter by
that separation, but that three powers, act
ing in concert, could keep him in check.
Russia and Prussia, however, would not re-
cognize him as Emperor, if elected to that of
fee, but merely as an elective monarch, and
not as the founder of Napoleonic Dynasty.
1t is stated that camp of exercise of 10000
men would be formed, to be commanded by
the President. The editor ofthe ChGriUdri,
had received an official caution.

kossurH's ADDRESS TO THE GEem.vs.
Ihere was ooncourse of German residents and
citizens of German birth in the Tabernacle
wednesday evening to hear an address from M.
hossuth In the German language. NJ. Kossuth
enlarged upon his views of the present political
condition of Europe, and recommended his hear
ers to exert themselves in the coming election,
iorthe elevation to the Presidency OF the man most
likely to intervene in behalf of the independence
OF Hungary. We are told that
"a series OF resolutions was then pissed, in
winch the Democratic platform was recognized
as the one most suitable for the German socie-
ties to adhere to; also thanking Gov. Kossuth for
his discourse and services in the cause of free
DOM kossuth gracefully acknowledged the com
pliment.''
Thus, then, the mask is thrown off. and M.
kossuth has interfered in the domestic affairs,
OF a nation to whose generosity and hospitality
ne Is, confessedy, so much indebted.

AN INTERESTING INcIDENr.-The steamer was
returning from Norfolk to Richmond, laden with
number OF the members of the Baptist Associa-
ton, who had been holding one of their annual
meetings; the boat ascending the same river,
and sailing along the very track of the vessels
which had borne the first colonists from England,
and the first black men from Africa to Virginia,
and were passing by the ruins of jamestown,
where these two races and the Indian, first gazed
upon each other in the new world, when the
subject OF African Colonization was brought upon
the tapis in discussion. The Rev. p. Slaughter
Agent for this cause, being on board was solicited
to address the throng and consented, under cir
cnmstances well calculated to deepen the inter-
est and invest the occasion with an almost ro
mantle interest. After the delivery of the
Address, responses We're made by the Rev. DR..
Jeter, Rev. Jas. B. Taylor. Mr.. Vim. Crane, and
Rev. Mr.. Poindexter. Although not word had
been said about collection, yet several reverend
gentlemen volunteered to receive what any might
chose to contribute; and in few minutes re-
ceived, $780, which, considering the demands of
the Associations was more than could have been
expected.
1t was also proposed to take up collection in
the churches on the ensuing 4th of July, which
falls on Sunday for the transportation of emigrants
to the Colony in Afrca.- Fred. Herald

The delicate business of providing against
the schemes of the South Carolina Nullifers aad
conciliating them, if possible, was, in 1882 con
fided to General Scott. He fixed his head quar-
tiers at Fourt Moultrie, near Charleston. By h is
orders, the office rs and men bore themselves with
meekness and forbearance. The General and
many of his officers had frequent occasions to visit
and they agreed to give way to every body, not to
resent indignity if offered and to look on their
fellow citizens as fellow countrymen, whom all
were happy to free from unhappy delusion.-
At the period of the most intense anxiety, when
a single indiscretion might have kinded civil
war, fire broke out in Charleston, which threa-
tened the entire city with destruction. General
Scott happened to be the first to perceive the
confagraton, and skilfu to take advantage of such
a circumstance, he promptly called the volunteers
to the aid ofthe Inhabitants Each detachment was
ordered to report itself the authorities for service
Captain Ringgold, who was afterwards slain at
Pao Alto, begged to be put to work. "a citizen
claimed his assistance to save a sugar refinery.
Ringgold This was in allusion to the famous
threat of Governor Hamilton, in respect to the
importation of that article before the boxes
had arrived, that 'they would go to the death for
the SUGAR. the refinery was saved by the exer-
lions Of the gallant Captain and his men, and the
good-humored quotation was not lost on the hun
dreds who heard it, The soldiers returned to the
fort in quiet and orderly manner. Beyond all
doubt this timely movement, so happily conceived
and executed, overcome much of the excitement
and preudice existing against the general govern
ment and its forces. BY such course, General
Scott conciated the citizens Of South Carolina,
and obtained a nobler victory than could have
achieved by force of arms.

for, five correctly informed, the basis of a

CONVENTION OF STEAMBOAT MEN.-This
Convention recently held at St. Louis, after pro-

tiers of interest to steamboat men, and calculated
to prevent the serious accidents and loss of life
now of so frequent occurrence onthe Western
ters were under consideration, and suitable action
taken on them. A system of signals for boats
passing each otherat night was established. A re-
commentator to Congress was adopted to incor
porate in the bill now before tenactments making
the use of both guage cocks, water guage, aud of
mercural steam gauges obligatory, and also re-
curing that every vessel propelled in whole or in
part by steam shall have placed on each outside
boiler fusibe alloy, compounded so as to fuse the
Limit of the working pressure of the engine; alloy
likewise being placed on the hues of the middle
bo lers which shall fuse at pressure ten pounds
higher than that on the outside boilers. The
Convention resolved to memoraze Congress
to extend the provisions of maritime law over IL
censed steamboats, navigating the Western and
Southwestern waters and il committee was ap-
pointed to present these views to Cong ress.

ken, took command of Gen. Pixies army, after
that gallant officer MORALLY wounded, at the
