FOREIGN.  On Tuesday afternoon the King of the French and Madame Adelaide, accompanied by General Ay marl, Colonel de Cha• bannes, the Count de Montalivet, and the Marquis de Strada, paid a visit to St. Cloud, but returned to Neuilly to dinner. In the evening, their Majesties received the English, Austrian, and Neapolitan Ambassadors, the Pope's Nuncio, Duke Decazes, Marquis de Pange, Baron Reinach, M. Dupin, sen., and M. Boulay de la Meurthe. The King and Queen of the Belgians arrived at Neuilly on Thursday evening. Her Majesty was to accompany the Royal Family to Dreux, to assist at the funeral service which is to be celebrated there for the repose of the soul of the Duke of Orleans on the 13th, the anniversary of his death. A telegraphic dispatch announces the arrival of the four Spanish Ministers at Madrid on the ith inst.  The Queen of Spain has conferred the Order of Charles 11. upon M. Azevedo, Prefect of the Basses-Pyrenees, in testimony of her satisfaction at the good offices which he has rendered to her government. Count Alexander of Wirtemberg, cousin of the King, died on the 7th inst., aged 43.  " All accounts (—says the Coizstitutionnel) concur in giving a sad picture of our establishment at the Marquesas. A lady who has accompanied thither her husband, an officer of the Staff, writes that she has found nothing but privations and misery." _ _  We have already announced the intention of the Council of` the Order of Advocates of the Cour Royale to appeal against the decision of their judges. On learning their intention, which has now been carried into effect, the members of 'the Council of-Advocates of the Court of Cassation tendered, says the Commerce, their aid in the appeal to the members of the other bar.  On the sth inst. two Englishwomen, mother and daughter, accompanied by the two children of the latter, went on the jetty at Ostend, with the intention, as has been since avowed, of first drowning the children and then themselves. They had thrown in one of the children, when they were observed by some persons on the spot, who saved it. The younger of the females then declared, in answer to the questions which were put to her, that distress and despair at having been abandoned by her husband had suggested this. project of murder and suicide, in which her mother had ciYnsentsd to participate. The Constitutionnel, in which we find this account, does not inform us what was done with these women, whose wretchedness must have been extreme indeed to have urged them to such a course, Accounts from Trieste state that the insurgents captured in Calabria have been shot.

UNITED STATES LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY.; The fast-sailing ship Sea, Captain Edwards, arrived at this port to-day, after a quick voyage. She left New York on the 3d inst., and Sandy Hook on the 4th. The Sea has brought five passengers only. The news is very barren of interest.  At Washington, on the Ist inst , in Senate, the joint resolution of the House, to adjourn on the 17th of June, was adopted. Mr. M'Duffie's tariff resolution, pronouncing the present rate of duties unjust and oppressive, was taken up and rejected—ayes 18, noes 25. In the House of Representatives, Mr. Adams broached the great principle of the Native American party, i. e., the alteration of the Naturalization Laws so as to require foreigners to reside here twenty-one years, instead of five, before they exercise the rights and powers of native-born citizens; and he presented a petition from citizens of Pennsylvania, praying Congress to make this change in the naturalization laws. In presenting this petition, he supposed an opinion would be expected from him on the subject, and he therefore stated that the petitioners being unknown to him, he did not feel bound to support the prayer of the peti• tion. He moved that the petition be referred to the Judiciary Committee. Mr. Murphy called for the ayes and noes on a motion by Mr. Hammett to lay it on the table. The question was ordered, and resulted in 104 votes is favour of laying it on the table, and only 26 against so doing. A murder and suicide of the murderer, of a very horrible description, had been committed at Philadelphia. The Philadelphia Ledger says, under date of Saturday, June 1, that a Frenchman named Jules Lesueur, early that morning, shot his wife in the right side, between the fifth and sixth ribs, arid committed suicide by shooting himself in the left side. The Coroner convened a jury about eight o'clock, when the wife was still alive. Augustus Esmoil, keeper of the French boarding-house, Dock-street, below Third, in which the deceased resided, knew of no quarrel between de. ceased and his wife, but papers and documents were found which made it evident that murder and suicide were premeditated by deceased. In a letter to Mr. Esmoil, found on a table, Lesueur begs " pardon of God for his crime " he was about to commit, gives directions for the funeral, that both shall be interred in one grave, in plain coffins, the expenses to be defrayed out of 170 dollars left for the purpose. It appears that suspicions of infidelity on the part of the woman in refusing to live with deceased, produced this deplorable result. She was alive at noon, Saturday, -but her recovery was impossible. She was suffering great pain. She says, he awoke her on Friday night, asked her to kiss him ; and on refusing, he shot her. She is a Creole, of Louisiana, where she has a sister. Mr. Barbace, of whom deceased was jealous, is her agent, and at her desire assisted her to escape from the power of her husband.
