France. On Friday An Old Subject Of Irri...
FRANCE . On Friday an old subject of irrilaliou was stirred < inth « A « rmbIy , which had to vote the credits for maintaining the French army of occupation at Rome . M . Emanuel Arago complained oil the perpetuity of this occupation , and maintained that ihe object of the expedition had been altogether distorted , the French troops serving at present merely to protect odious executions and condemnation * pronounced by secret tribunals . He therefore called loudly for putting ah end to an intervention which cost much treasure , titer having cost much blosd and no little honour— ( Murmers)—and which bolstered up an iniquitous governmen t against the will of the nation . —M . Breaier read , in a low aud almost inaudible tone , a speech , m which he contradicted many of the facts alleged by M . Arajjo , and maintain ? d that French influence at Boraa had been the source of serious ameliorations
in the government of Italy . —M . Mathieu dela Drome made an energetic speech against the occupation . He said that the expedition of Rome had paved the way to the conferences of Dresden , where a new Holy Alliance was forming , which lis hoped might not receive tbe accession of tbe ne * English cabinet . He demanded that Rome should pay the expenses of the expedition , as France had paid the Hoi ? Alliance in 1815 . General Oudiaot dwelt upon the good understanding existing beiwcn the Soman aud French troaps . —M . Valentin , luving been twice called to order for interruptions , the president consulted the Assembly on applying the censure to him . The house decided on proceeding to tbe discussion of the articles—Colonel Ciiarras attempted to show that the expedition bad cost Francenot fifteen , but sixty millions . After some words from M . Passy , the first article passed . The house then proceeded to divide on the ensemble of the bill , which was passed by a large majority .
PERPETUAL BAXISHMEXT OF THE EX-ROYAL FAMILIES OF FRANCE . On Saturday afternoon an animated and spiritstirring debate on M . Creton ' s proposal for permitting the Princes of the House of Bourbon to reside in France , toot place in the Assembly . At tbe close of tbe debate on Friday tbe Assembly divided by a majority of 340 to 319 , that the proposition should be takah into consideration on Saturday , and accordingly 31 . Crelon opened his fire by . declaring that as ihe Charter of 1814 hid abolished the confiscation of property , the revolution of 1848 should abolish the proscription of the Princes of the House of Bourbon . He declared that it little mattered whether tbe princes tvnuldavail themselves of the liberty to reside in France , but that the law
was a disgrace to tbe statute book , and ought to be repeated ; such , be said , was also the opinion of M . Berryer . Tbe Legitimist party , of which if . Berryer is the recognised chieftain , is strongly opposed la this measure , because they say that tbe Due de Bordeaux can only enter France " as King , and tbi-y are well aware that the popularity of some of Louis Philippe ' s sobs would render them formidable rivals to the claims of Hew ? V ., if they should obiaia permission to settle in this country . It was , therefore , amidst marks of intense interest that Jl . Berryer , advanced to the tribune , and said —¦« I freely avow that I steadfastly stood forth in the year 1832 , against the law for proscribing the soil of France to her Prince . ' . Assisted by my friends , I again stand forth in 1848 to combat those
unjust measures of proscription , but now you desire to brrak the law which you have made , and this I oppose . Laws of proscription are hateful , and disgraceful to the statute-book , but the effect Of the abrogation of Ibis Uw would simply be to produce a variety of combinations into none of . which I could enter . Tbe only possible method of abrogating the laws , which you hare made , is to f ff-ct another political revolution , for if the law as it stands , "were annulled , it would merely serve to diminish the dignity and persona ! standing of the Prince whom you have exiled . I see what is going on around me , that order is far from being re tored . I ( this law be annulled , it will serve as a handle for violent tasa to resume the torch of discord . In acting against the proposal , I look only io the interests of my country . I have a sinccK respect for the Pr inces of the House of Bourbon ; bus I feel that tbe abrogation of this law would simply render them the instruments of vile intriguers . '
55 . Mahc Defbaisse . —Before recording my ordinarily silent vote against this motion , 1 will just state my opinions in favour of the laws of banishment . ' I believe that they were just and useful at the time they were carried . ( A voice from the Right , " Tbey never were just . " ) 1 believe that they were just and useful at the time they were carried , and that tbey are still jnst and useful . I think also that it will be risjbt and proper to maintain them , which I shall try to demonstrate iu a -very few words . Before , however , undertaking this task , which will not take long to perform , 1 wi s h to submit a reflection to you to which the words of If . Berryer have just n ; irai rise to in my miud . Do you think it is worthy tha representatives of tbe
nation to offer m its name a forgivingand forgetting hand to I know not what majesty without a kingdom , that rejects it with all the pride of disdain ? ( Exclamations from tbe Right—apprebitions from the extreme Left . ) Do you not think on the contrary that it is very unsuitable to this Assembly to open the arms of the country chment and generous , to those who repulse it with contempt and haughtiness ? ( Fresh disorder . M . Faveau ; "It is not so . " ) I have advanced , gentlemen , that the laws of ostracism were legitimate ia their principle , and most just and moral in their objects . I will now establish it . It is unjust , say some , to lei the punishment for the acts of the father fall upon the children ? That is what is done , they cont-nue , by
these laws , whose abrogation we now demand . Sow , gentlemen , I do not admit these sentimental sophisms , aud I maintain that the conseierees of the people have always unanimously protested against this theory of indulgence to those who have oppressed the people . ( ' * Very good ! very good 1 " from the extreme Left . ) When they open a discussion by this miserable quibble , that a sou ought not to be punished for the crimes of the father , tbey think they hare demonstrated the entire innocence of all tbe ex-royal races , and that there will remain nothing else but for revolutions and revolutionists to ask lai-rey of these dynasties whose existences they tti-ii » iaatcd . We cannot accept the debate on this imaginary aud fantastic ground ; we should be conquered by an artifice of language . Without doubt , under ordinary circumstances , tbe son should not suffer for the father ' s fault . Butin the
, particular case of which we speak , that is ' not the Question . ( Interruption . ) It does not concern the justice of the original crime extending to all generations , nor yet tbe reversibility of the punishment . Xo 2 That is not the question I We would not strike at the children of guilty fathers . They arc , ( which ought to be well understood . ) the voluntary heirsthe intentional representatives—of a principle which the will of the people has abolished . ( "Hear , hear , " from the Left . ) In those families that call themselves ruyal , and yours are amon ? the number , in those families tbe inheritance of the ri « bts they claim entails , necessarily , tbe inheritance of tlie decree t = Lieli banished their head . When th-CTC IS a question . Of jttd » iu £ sovereign families tSey should not be divided . It u not such and such a member of a royal house that is touched , it is tbe whole race at which the blow is struck .
II . iJinnE ( with vivacity ) . —At present , in France cue sv . j-3 to people , " Who are vou V * and not "From whom ere you descended !" The Pkesibbst . —Do not interrupt . M . Mabc Dcfjiakse . —It is not , I would have it understood , the chance of birth that is condemned ; xio , it is the will juiuifested Of profiting hr it . ; aud when one punches the sons oi these grand families it is because they , by their free , voluntary , and personal intention have retrospectively rofidercd themselves the accomplices of their birth . ( ' Oh . oh , " great agitation . Explosion of cries " La Cloture , La Culture ; " " Hear , bear , " from the extreme Left . ) You do not bold my opinion . ( M .

Does he ' not constantly denv the right of the revolution , audaciously affirming the justice and superiority of his own ? . ( M . Leo Laborde : " No ! he wants nothing of you . " A voice on theLeft : "We will give' him what be wants then . " ) And in certain cases has not a magnaminous and free people been treated like a vile mob of rebellious subjects or revolted and factious vassals ? ' You say that legitimate or
elected royalty never dies . You are right ; we reply on onf side that the penalty attached to royalty , legitimate or elected , ought not either to die . Are we wrong ? ( Approbation on theLeft . ) Our revolutionary logic is tlie daughter of your royalwt paralogisms , ' -Tothe eternity of your monarchic right , we reply by the eternity of republican chastisement . ( " Bear , hear , " from the Left . "Various voices on tho Rijrhi ; "Bat that is a frightful doctrine . " "It is an evtravagant cynicism . " " It is the atrocious verging , on tbe ridiculous . " ) I have now told you the reason wby I would maintain these laws , and can declare with all tranquillity of conscience and security of soul that 1 shall vote against their abrogation . ( " Enough , enough , "from the Right . ) Not quite enough . ( M .
Legranddel'Lure : "Pray continue , it is edifying . " ) 1 am determined to do so by another consideration ; it is those words of M . Berryer which authorise me to say to you that its dynasties are innocent ; then revolutions are guilty . ( M . de Montebello "Yes . " "No , no , " from tho Left . ) You see we do not agree . ( Laughter . ) In our eyes dynasties are judged and condemned by the insurrection ; in your eyes royal families are innocent , because insurrection is a crime . ( " Yes , yes , " from the right . "No , no , " from the Left . ) You see we cannot come to au agreement . "Wry well , if your princes are martyrs , we have been unjust judges . ( " Yes ! " from the Right . M . Btvrre : " And sometimes executioners ! " ) If dynasties are victims ,
the revolution is a crime ? { " Yes 1 " from the Right . ) That is it ; and that is what I wished to arrive at . As long as the question is held on that ground , I , for my part , shall not hesitate a single instant in maintaining tbe laws of proscription . You speak of generosity ! Has any one shown it to our vanquished ? ( M . A . Dubois : " Your vanquished arc criminals . " A voice oh the' Left : " Silence there on the Right . " 5 T . de Vogue : " They were condemned by the justice of the country . " ) Pity their desolate families—their wives , their children . ( M . Vandore : "Yes , we do pity them . " ) Pity these beings who live in despair , when they do not die of want . . Gentlemen , these families are innocent . ( Voices on the Right : " Yes ! yes !" - A Member " At all events , they are not exiled . " ) Well ,
amnesty the hearts that would console them , the arms that would nourish them . So ] You have repulsed the demand for an amnesty , and you are astonished that wc repulse the demand that you have made . ' ( Numerous voices from the Right : " No ! we are not astonished . " M . Vesin : " One cannot make assimilation like that . " M . Bruys : " You are right ; it is an insult to us . " ) And yet you talk of humanity and clemency . For my own part , I bare always , from the very first , suspected sensibility like yours which only shudders at the misfortunes of the great ; those who compassionated the fate of Louis XVI . would , as events have since shown us , have led us back to royalty . ( Loud denials on the Right . ) It is true , you cannot deny it . ( " Order ! order ! " from the Right . "Hear , hear ! " from the several members on the crest of the Mountain . )
The President of the Assembiy . —The words of the orator have the appearance of justifying a political crime . ( Loud exclamations oh" the Left . "Yes , yes 3 Hear , bear , " from the Right . ) M . Marc Dufkaisse . — -I have only exercised my right ¦ 21 . Fatbbas . —Ton have no right to justify assassination . M . Scuoacnon . —The assassination of the three sergeants of La RocheHe ! That was a political crime . The three insurgents of La RocheHe were assassinated .. ( Exclamations on the Right . ) Yes , assassinated , and so was Ney . M . Masc Dpfraissb . —I was within the limits of my right and of the truth , when I said that those who voted against the death of Louis XVI ., and for tbe appeal to the people , that tbey all wished to lead the people back to royalty . M . Vicroa Lefkasc . —It is false ! It is false .
The agitation here became extreme , while there were numerous cries uttered for order . A Member ( to M . Marc Dufraisse ) . —You are the greatest enemy of the Republic . M . ns Vooue . —You would have voted for death without any alleviation . / . A Voice . —These are the people who call out for the abolition of the punishment of death . ¦ A Mbmbeb on . the Right . —One may be a republican without being a regicide , Monsieur . There are better republicans than you . M . bb Malbois . —It is an apology for the scaffold and for the regicide .
Another Member on the Right . —You are disowned by the honourable men of all parties . ( General agitation and confusion . ) The Pbesu > e \ -t of the Assembly . —Pray be silent ; gentlemen . I ennnot make myself heard if you all speak at once . ( This produced no cessation of tbe noise . ) Gentlemen , your President asks an instant , of silence of you in order to accomplish what I regard as the . most important duty I can perform among you : that is , to make tbe honour of our deliberations be respected . There are facts that history has judged , that we should not misconstrue . ( Lively approbation from the Right . Exclamations from the extreme Left . ) . A Member . —You will not efface the decrees of tbe Convention .
. The President of the Assembly . —( Turning to the Left . ) . You will not hinder me from finishing . M . Marc Dufraisse . —I did not justify the condemnation of . Louis XVI ., but I blamed those who would have re-established royalty . The Presides ? of the Assembly . —Once more I ask an instant of silence . Tho voice of the President ought to be the voice of tho Assemblv , speaking to the country under similar circumstances . The speaker has just observed that lie does not justify the crime to which he made allusion . ( Exclamations from the higher benches of the Left . M . Mathe , and several other members of the extreme Left , " It was an act of justice . " Violent tumult . ) I invite the speaker to explain himself .
M . Marc Ddfraisse . —I have said , gentlemen , I repeat , and I maintain —( Tbe agitation in the Assembly here became extreme . Vchoment and confused interpellations were exchanged by the representatives sitting on opposite sides of the Chamber . ) The Presidest of the Assembly . —( To several groups of representatives on the right)—I invito the Assembly to silence . No more serious circumstance could present itself . ' If the words of your President are without authority , Islu . ll he obliged to suspend tbesiiririg . M . Beukyru . —I demand to speak , M . Marc Dufraisse—I said The Presidext t « f the Assembly . — ( To the speaker . ) Pray wait for silence , in order that I mav hear you . ( Silence was here established for it moment . )
M . Marc Dwraisse-I have said , and I repeat and maintain , that the greater part of those who voted against tbe sentence of death , and iu favour or the appeal to the people —( M . Godelle : " Were honorable men" ) -had an artimpensib of royalty . ( Murmurous exclamations and protestations on the benches of the majority . —M . Dufaure : " That was why they guillotined them . " ) For the rest , why need we talk of regicide ? Did not the grandfather of your princes vote the death of your king ? ( Great agitation . ) Several Member ' s—What does that prove ? M . le VopiiF—Ought that to justify the crime ? M . » e Ravlvel—lie expiated bis effenco on the scaffold . -
The Presidest of tho Assembly— Gentlemen , as President , I have a duty . to fulfil . . 1 repeat what 1 bavejust said ; the voice of tbe President ought to be the voice of the Assembly . ( M . Berthoion : " It is the voice of a Legitimist / ' ) Who said that ' ( M . Bariholon : "I . " ) J . call you to order ; you have no right to suppose that I express here any violated opinion . Thi-re are opinions which history has so consecrated ; that one cannot insult the .-n without wounding all sentiments of propriety . I recall M . Marc Dufraisse to order , ( exclamations from the extreme Left . ) M Dol-tre . —For having said that Phillippo Egalite voted for the death of the king ! M . Besseouier . —We approve of tho President ' s , conduct . ( "Yes , yes , " from tho whole of the Right )
M . Marc Dufraisse . —I am coming to a close . However , passing from the question of justice and generosity to considerations of utility , I ask you if it is opportune to recall among us membf-rs of families who may set up dangerous political pretensions ? You say they will " not conspire . It is possible ; but how do you know ? Wb-y will guarantee that ? You say tbey will not lay plots—( M . Dufaure : " It is a law " for suspicious characters , thc-n" ) -you say that . they will not lay plots ; I could wish to believe you , but it is too much to bo
feared tlrst they will . Who shall be judge between tis ? For my part I believe that the re-entry into France of the exiled families would be extremely dangerous ; it is on that account that I am against it , and I think I am more humane than you—more humane towards my country , in wishing to spare it many fatal ruptures . m . bbbbyeb ( darting towards the Tribune ) . — demand to speak .

SWITZERLAND . We find the following in the 'Cowrier Suisse' of the 26 th ult : —In the . absence of official information relative to the late measures adopted toward * the refugees ; we publish the following particulars which have reached us •—On the 20 th the refugee ! residing at Lausanne received ah order to . presen themselves ' immediately at the office for foreigners , in order to hear a communication made to them . On the following : day the refugees , being informed of the fate which awaited them , sent a delegation to the office , composed of Mil . Felix Pyai and Duchesne for the French , and Sterbini and Vare for the Italians . The secretary made known to them
verbally the measures which applied to thera all without distinction j and then laying before . them a map of Switzerlandi requested them to point out which of the non-prohibited cantons they would select as . their future residence . The delegates replied that they refused to make choice of any can * ton , that they would only recognise a written order signed by the ' federal authority , countersigned by that' of the canton , and officially communicated . In this position the Council of State was called on to decide . What will it resolve oh ? V Will . it persist in executing the orders given , or will it draw , back . ' Everything appears to indicate that it will adopt the latter course . The ' Nouvelliste . ' m mentioning
tbe petition which has emanated from the Patriotic Association , and another to the same effect from , the students of Helvetia , adds that it ' eannot see with . out pleasure these manifestations ' of public * opinion . ' This declaration adds to the account published by tbe . ' . I 'ribune . Suisse that ' the government of Vaud had decided , in consequence of the objection felt by a part , of the . population against the measures adopted relative to the refugees , to represent officially to the > Federal Council the desirability of releaalng the cantonal authority from the execution of them . ' If such be the case , aud the representation of the government of Vaud ' bo favourably received , it is to be presumed tbat . tbe Federal Council will send a commissioner to Lausanne on the subject . ' :
The Federal Council of . Switzerland has , inconsequence of the repeated remonstrances ; of tbe German powers ; just abolished the absolute obligation imposed in July , 1849 , on the various cantons to receive political refugees ;; it has , moreover , maintained the decrees relative to the expulsion or transmission cf . refugees info . the interior . ' These resolutions are . communicated . Vo ' , the cantons ' by' a proclamation , dated Berne , the 25 h ult . This'document explains that , after the events of 1848-and 1849 , S . wiizerlaad was obliged , from its position , and from the duties of humanity , to receive a vast number of refugees of different nations , and to take measures for distributing them among the cantons ;
but the time has now arrived at which the cantons can be relieved from this burden , and allowed their old privilege of dealing as they . please with refugees . It says , moreover , that the French government has offered to convey to England or America all refugees not French , who may be unable to retain to their own countries . Under these circumstances , it observes that the cantons may make use of the right of expelling refugees without subjecting themselves to the charge of severity . In-Julyj 1849 , tbe number of refugees under the general control of the confederation was 11 , 000 ; but by pardons ; expulsions ' , and voluntary departures it has been deduced to about 500 . ¦ ' ¦¦ ,
The Swiss journals slate that a sanguinary confliet had just taken place at Matten , in , the district of Interlaken , between the troops , and a band of ihsurgenis ,. in the course of which two of the former and eight of : the . latter ; were 1 seriously wounded . Several of the insurgents have been arrested ! amongst whom are MM . Seiler , ex-prefect ; Michel , ex-director of the prison of Interlacken ; Stacbii and Ritschard , ex-substilutes of the prefect '; Branner , formerly judge of the district ; , Indermuhle , exsecretary of the prefecture , ; Rubihi , usher of the tribunal ; . and Shasser , ' a ' medical practitioner .

GERMANY . The Prussian government has suffered an equivocal defeat in the . Second Chamber .- In the debate on the budget the following , amendment of M . Simson was adopted ,. and on a-second verification of votes rejected : — ' That- the Chamber should resolve that the government is not lawfully entitled to appropriate the expenditure of the financial year beginning on 1 the 1 st of January / It has been resolved by the Berlin Cabinet again to remonstrate with the Aust »&» . Cabinet , and to insist on the ' unconditional equality of Prussia and Austria in ail the Councils and . boards of the Confederation . If Austria ; should refuse to comply with that request , Prussia proposes to . return to the constitution of the Old Federal Diet . A declaration lo this effect has been forwarded to Dresden , and Vienna . ¦ . ¦•• ¦¦ . ¦ . ¦ < ,
Vienna correspondence of the 26 th ult . states that the opposition of the Prussian Cabinet to the Austrian demands in the German question' has caused the greatest dismay in the Vienna ministerial circles .
. .. . PIEDMONT . ,. „ ; PLOT AGAINST THE LIBEUAL GOVERNMENT . Turin , Feb . 19 . —On the motion of M . Moga Camhieri , the Chamber met in secret sitting . Deputy Broffiero asked the Minister whether , as a high personage had written to hiro . from Paris , a deputation or secret mission had been sent ., to the Dresden Conference ' s , lie had been given to understand by that personage that the Prince de Carignan and the Queen-Mother ,, in agreement with the chiefs of the reaction , had sent Count Piussareo with another individual to Dresden with letters of credit , in order to enter into communication with tbe
Uusso-Austrian coalition , and assure the high' contracting powi-rs ' that tlie general wish of the-Piedmotitese nation was to see affairs again flow in the c »«« ft which they took at the epoch of 1815 , and that therefore there was no roots , to apprehend popular resistance , or at . the worst a civil war would not be prolonged for more than a day . ' His Excellency tbe Minister Galvago replied that the statement just made ¦ by the honourable debutv
was . nothing ' . but the simple truth . He added that the government was perfectly' well informed of all the proceedings , and , that , the , deputies might , sepa rate : without fear , singe the . goverjjrutni was on the alert . ' . That as far as the Prince de Carignan and the other conspirators were concerned , the governmerit had no certain means of action , since , although the moral proof was completely satisfactory , it would he next t ;> impossible to fix them with the crime by legal evidence .
The Minister was asked what measures the government proposed to take for securing the safety of the country ; the Chamber wrald . require something more satisfactory than themere verbdl assurance of the , Cabinet .- Like assurances had been given by the democratic ministry on the eve of the entry of the Austriims into Piedmont ( before the battle" of Nbvara . ) ¦•' .: ¦¦ M . Pouza de St . Martins ( a member of the absolutist party ) , declared that , the King ' s government beheved iiself strong enough to , protect . the litier ' ais . against the reaction , but it could not ' assureitheni atjainst the Austrians .
The « Breslaw .

The circumstances appear to be the follow , irig-s—f He ^ Englishmen in Rome were ' accustomed to meet at the ' house of the clergyman to transact the business relating to the chapel , and amongst them wasa Signor Sertori , a naturalised . British subject ,
who for many years acted as Cabinet courier for the British . government ., The woman servant one day informed Sertori that she bad figured in her native city bf PesftfO as the Marchioness Mosca , and had especially enjoyed the acquaintance ! of Pio Nino himself , ' as ' w . ell as the , friendship of the whole Mastai Ferretti family . . She wished him to do something for her , and when the Pope returned from Portici in the spring , the Matchesa prepared a petition , and requested Signor Sertori to find out some means of getting it conveyed to the palace , which Signor Sertori , who was acquainted with the Pope ' s valet-dechambre , Zangolino , gond-naturedly enough pro - mised to do . ZangoIino , howeveir , declined present *
