Summary OF the Mornings News.

Inc steamship Humboldt, with 1our days later
intelligence from Europe, arrived 81 Halifax on
Sunday morpisg, after heavy aud tempestuous
rsssage The news from France is of some moment
and of ominous complexion, in respec. to the con-
inued tranquility of the republic, or tho empire,
$he case may be. Louis Napoleo n, however, contin-
ues to play the bold game commenced with his ,ri-
umphant coup a'etat but il is manifest that the
$uietude Of France is not yet permanently esta-
bished. The funds are the barometer OF contineu-
isl politics; and the decline Of the French stocks
simply indicates o gathering Of clouds N tie poll
tioal armament. Louis Napoleon has thrown MIN.
self into the boldest experiment Of modern times.
The game is desperate; but If he can hold on few
Menths longer he may be able to relax TIE reins
which have been drawn, perhaps, too tightly, either
for his own safety or that o. France. We shall
1cok for the next news from Paris with interest.
Tae new government appssrst to be approaching a
crisis which will determine its inherent strength
and stability. England is absorbed in the ools
pick question OF the reorg ariz I'll on of her Own
ministry. The general news by this arrival,
septing these particular difficulties in France spi
England, is of extraordinary interest port
ance The British cabinet, by appointment. meets
to day. Cotton continued in good demand, which
will be acceptable Intelligence to the South.
An important arrest, under the a,t of 1899, has
been Effected in this city. 1t appears, by eur legal
intelligence, that Capt Jonas p Levy was charged
by the Grand Jury Of the District Of Columbia,
with being in secret correspondence with the Presi
dent of the republic of Mexico, for the purp pose of
defeating measures of the government Of tho
United States. This is offence which involves
. penalty of five thousand dollars fine, and imp,i-
sonment varying from six months to three years.
Our telegraphic despatch from Washington, given
ths morning, but which should have reached US on
Saturday, throws additional light en- the affair
and elrcidates in measure, the mysterious des-
pstch published in the HERALD on Sunday morn
ing; but there has been no fraud, as that despatch
intimates. This is the drst arrest, think, under
the act Of 1899. 1t is said that others impli-
