Assassination OF cornemeuse by St. Arnaud.
French Minister OF War


From the ~ =. Commercial Advertiser, Mav %.
The following statement is translated from +.
confidential letter received from Paris bv the l..,
steamer. As matter of course, the occurrence ia
not alluded to in the French journals. We give it
communicated, making due allowance for Do.
sibie exaggeration, though the source of informa.
ton is too reliable to need such allowance:
81 ought to tell you that the general, ma rshal
of France, st. Arnaud, Minister of War, was ar
rested last evening, by order of the Emperor, for
the following reasons: General Cornemeuse, aid
de-camp of the Emperor, found himself ia the cab
met of his majesty with General St. Arnaud. A
sum Of four hundred thousand francs was there,
and the Emperor, entering his cabinet, asked for
port ion OF the daughter of General st. Arnaud.
General Cornemeuse searched everywhere, but
was unable TO find more than two hundred thou
sand francs; whereupon he said to General st. Ar
maud, You and only have been here, and it ia
only yourself who could have taken it, Finding
that he could not deny the charge, st. Arnaud in
stantly drew his sword and killed General Corne.
mense; the latter having merely the time to make
deg0g enaent, piercing the arm of ST. Armand.
This scene passed under the eyes of the Emperor,
and 80 Suddenly that he had time to prevent the
two blows. The matter is hushed up, but you
may rely upon the facts, as have them from a
source beyond all doubt. st. Arnaud, you are
aware is the general who played prominent a
nouncing upon the guilt innocence of the par
ties, cannot avoid observing that considering the
destination of the money, it is extraordinary that
st. Arnaud should have taken it, which is equally
strange that such grave charge should have been
made without probable cause"

GREAr FRr CAsADA.-The Montreal Ga
,stts describes extensive FIRE that has ccurred
in Canada:
"On Sunday, the 10Th instant, fire. which had
caugh in the woods, seems to have been carried
along like hurricane for miles, sweeping forests
and fences, houses and barns, hock and herds be-
fore it, and it 10 feared Destroying many lives
The reports conflicting that it 10 impossible
to arrive at any very correct estimate of the loss
suffered by this terrible calamity, which spread
over several townships, and destroyed several
villsges. We glad to learn that the subse-
quent heavy rains have completely stopped the
course of the destroying element, and the worst
will soon be known.
'sFrom a private letter from a we'll informed
source received in town yesterday morning, we
gather the following particulars Upon the island of
Allumettes it 10 believed that two churches and
about thirty buildings have been consumed; upon
Calumet isa nd the mills of F. X. Bastien, esq
and about thirty farm buldings in Pembroke, the
establishment of Mr.. c. o Kelley, and other build
ings; in the township of Westmeath, Beech's grist
saw mile and about twenty farm buildings; in the
township OF Roes. an entire settlement, known as
the "Carden of Eden,' has been destroyed be-
sides Gould's wharves and all the stores and farm
buildings the south side Of the river at Portage
du Fort; in Bromley. about ten buildings were
destroyed. About two hundred families, princi-
pally those of agriculturists, have BEEN left
houseess." -... 81. 81. ....

SELF ESTEEM NOT APPREcIATED-The senten-
tious Washington correspondent of the New York
Journal of Commerce non concurs in the value
which certain Democratic recipients of Executive
favor set upon themselves. He dryly says:
sc It was rumored that some of those who had
received foreign appointments would not accept
them know that some of these gentlemen de-
cared that they would throw up their commissions
soon received. Not one of them will do it
my word for it. Mr.. Gilmore, of Pennsylvania,
wanted the consulate at Valparaiso, worth twelve
thousand year, and got that at Bordeaux, worth
two or three thousand. He will not refuse it, as
he promised to do. The Administration will
promptly receive any resignation, and will ma xe
no more reappointments of those who resign.
"Those who make the greatest cIamor about
the injustice OF the Administration, those who
are the least fitted for any employment under the
Government"

Mr.. BELNosr.-The New York Ecening Post

rope, &c. But says the Post:
1--WE trust that what he says Of Mr.. Belmonpf
opinions in relation to European politics may be
correct. At the same time we may be pardoned
for expressing our regret that that gentleman had
not found some public occasion, during the course
Of his residence in the United States. to give bis
personal assurances that correspondent has
done him no more than Justice"
