cent attempt upon the life of Napoleon, has been

The Havre correspondent Of the Commercial
writes that the political horizon is again gloomy,
and decrease Of the consumption Of manufac-
tured goods inevitable. All speculative feeling
had subsidized, and the internal condition OF the
country was becoming, daily, more and more
threatening.
The Paris correspondent Of the Commercial
says IT Is generally supposed that the conspira-

Many believed that the punishment would be re-
United to perpetual labor, but such hope is not
well founded. Nevertheless, the defence Of Or

daily offered. Some Of these ridic aipus in

Will bring these assemblies into discredit. Thus
we hear Of requests for prayers to convert the
President of the nited States, prayers offered to
turn some public character from his sinful ways,
and In New York, on Friday, request was made
TO pray that fugitive slave might permanently
escape. In promiscuOus assemblies, like these
PRAYER meetings, topics moral or political, which
are subject Of controversy in the public mind
and honest differences Of opinion entertained in
regard to them, are entirely out OF place. and
ought not to be permitted to be introduced.

TIE WHEAT CRoP.-February and March are
generally the most trying months Of the year to
the wheat crop. The weather thus far has been
favorable, and from all accounts yet received the
prospect at present is, that the next harvest will
be one OF great abundance. Virginia and ILL.,
nois papers especially speak most cheeringly OF
the future, and anticipate the largest yield vet
obtained in the country. OF course great latitude
must be allowed in these estimates, for summer

SPIRIT or THE MORNING PRESS

The Union, this morning, enters upon an
analysis Of the objections to the great measure
OF tkansas) admission, and in summing up,
holds that the question reverts at last to the
two inquiries Is admission itself proper? Is
the instrument under which it is proposed in
itself unobjectionable? These two points are
conceded. Therefore the whole case is concs-
ded; for there is nothing in the objection to the
form and manner.
The O"'on urges the Importance of full at
tendance Of members in the House during the
sessions OF the week, especially on Thursday,
since the absence Of three or four Democratic
members, on even a collateral vote, might EN-
oarrass the whole programme of action contem-
plated by the party, which it would require
days and even weeks to retrieve.
The Intsihgencer surrenders its columns to-
day mainly to Congressional proceedings.
