France. Olhe 'Debits'created Great Excit...
FRANCE . olhe 'Debits ' created great excitement by pubfilling a circumstintial account of arrangements by memben of the Society of the Dix Decembre , to assassinate General Changarnier and M . D opin , President of the Assembl y , M . Dnpin , who is very brave when supported by a tyrannical majority , in putting down the members of the Left , took frignt . and shut himself up ; a deputation from the Committee o ! Permanence waited on the Minister of the interior to remonstrate with him , and instant inquiry was made into the truth of the report thus authoritatively made public . The « Constitutionnel the MSt day denied the whole story as a wine
shop fabrication , having not the # M foundation in truth . M . Cariier , Prefect of Police , published a distinct denial , and suspended the pay of M . YOD , the Commissay of Police , to the Assembly , Who had given the infermaiion on the authority of two of his agents .. It appears that M . Yon holds fcis position independent of the Prefect and the Elysee ; and M- Dupin proposes to back up the police officer of the assembly by passing s special vote to pay him his salary . Another indication of the bad feeling between the Executive and Legislature powers . The celebrated Society of the Dix Becembre is at length definitely dissolved by a decree of the Government . Founded bv the most intimate
friends of Louis Napoleon , under the pretence of being an institution for the mutual relief of Us members—patronised by the President himselfhaving the President ' s aides-de-camp , his physician , and his most devoted adherents as its leading members—the Society of the Dix Decembre devoted itself to the propagation of Napoleonist ideas . Its acts of charity were never heard of ; but the public cannot have forgotten the zeal with which its members watched the return of Lonis Napoleon from Strasbnrg , from Cherbourg , and from Satory , to salute him as Emperor ; the . violence which they used towards the casual public , who refused to join in the cry of ' Vivel'Empereur ! ' and the ardour TOth which their emissaries disseminated and
obtained signatures in the provinces to petitions , praying for a prolongation of the President ' s powers . The proceedings of the club have been so frequently exposed , that the prorogation committee of the Assembly , on several occasions , remonstrated with the Minister of the Interior on the subject , and demanded the dissolution of the society , on the ground of its illegality . M . Baroche , in the name of the Government , invariably refused . An association got up for the propagation of Bonapartism was not to be classed with the Socialist clubs ; and the Minister declared distinctly that the Government would not take any step for the dissolution of the Society ef the Dix Decembre . All this happened io
the times when' perseverance * was the order of the day . Since then matters have changed : the Bonapartial Minister of War has been sent to Algeria '• the President has allowed himself to be bearded by General Changarnier ; and orders of the day , forbidding the troops to give expression to their feelings , even if these ^ feelings were those of devotion to Lonis Napoleon have been issued ; and when the President of the Republic expressed his determination to get rid of the general who issued those orders , his Ministers declared , coolly , that if he did so they would desert bim , and join the enemy . Besides this , the day of reckoning bad arrived . The
Assembly was about to meet , and the prorogation committee / which had been narrowly watching the proceedings of Louis Napoleon himself as well as of nis partisans , had a long , score to settle . The proeet verbal of the committee for the last two months , if laid before the Assembly in its present haps , would amount t o an impeachment of the Ministry , if not of the President himself , and would produce an agitation which would probably end in his rain . The danger was , if possible , to be avoided ; and the first measure of conciliation attempted was the sacrifice of the Societe du Dix Decembre .
The Court of Appeal of the Seine on Saturday confirmed the decision by which the tribunal of correctional police declared itself competent in the affair of the signatures of articles in the journals . The case will now be brought before the Court of Cassation . On Saturday the ' Mode , ' a Legitimist journal , was brought before the Court of Assizes for a libel on the President of the Republic . The author of the article , M . de Besselievre , was acquitted , but the geranl , M . Wilier , was found guilty , and sentenced to three months' imprisonment and a fine Of 2 , 000 f . On Monday the Assembly resumed its sittings . Upwards of 500 members were present . The proceedings were merely formal .
The Italian opera was opened under the management of Mr . Lumley , the lessee of tbe English talian Opera House , on Saturday night . The heatre was attended by tbe President , and all the notabilities in Paris , and the reopening of the house , which has been all but closed since the Revolution of 1848 , was hailed as an agreeable symptom of a eturn to more settled times . A much greater sensation was produced on Monday by an ingenious satire than the re-opening of the Assembly .
The ' Presse' published a document entitled' Message of the President of the Republic to the Ltgi ; - lative Assembly / and signed L . N . Buonaparte . People stared at first to see this extraordinary apparent forestalment of an official document which bad not yet been submitted to tbe presses of the national printing-office , and which was known to be guarded mth the most jealous secrecy . Under the successive heads of Internal Policy , Taxes and Budgets , Laborious Classes , Agriculture , Industry , Commerce , Instruction , Laws , tbe roost radical principles appeared clothed in a rhetorical garb unknown to tbe official school . Still it was not easy to account for the name of the President being attached to a document so manifestly apocryphal . The fact is that M . Girardin had got together a heap of pamphlets , published at various epochs by M . Louis Napoleon Buonaparte ,
and taking a pair of scissors cut thereout and watered together this notablepseudo message , significant of the changes which have come over the mind of Louis Napoleon since he has been installed in the presidential chair . This ingenious centone was tbe sole talk of Paris , and great was the buzzing of the Bourse over the singular production . The sensation pro . duced in high regions , as tbe phra = e is , was of vehement displeasure . Official contradictions wers forwarded to the papers and to the Bourse . Tbe « Presse' was seized both at the office and the post , and its conductors are to be prosecuted gsrant of tbe ' Presse / under the inculpation of having published , with bad faith , false news , and a document forged and mendaciously attributed the same to a third party ; which news and document were of a nature to disturb the public peace .
We dare say the President deeply regrets having been so foolish or so honest as to write bis celebrated pamphlet' The Extinction of Pauperism . ' His own Socialist writings are the strongest condemnation on the mean , selfish , and petty policy he has pursued since he attained power , mainly in consequence of his holding these opinions . Tbe President ' s message bad already beem put under press , when It was determined , in consequence of the appearance of the mock message in the ' Presse / to effect some alterations , with the view of rendering the profitmongers and capitalists more certain that Lauia Napoleon does not mean to meddle with the system by which they draw the life blood from inda & trv .
The speech was read on Tuesday by M . Baroche , Minister of the Interior . The parts of the . messcge most applauded by the majority were the paragraphs relative to the restoration of Pius IX . to the Pontifical Throne . ' the nomination of three new French Cardinals , the pacific and moderate tone of foreign policy , the friendly feeling towards England , and in particular the moderate and disinterested manner in which the President alluded to the revision of the Constitution which he was bound by oath to respect . This last part was received with loud applause , which ~? u costinusd long after Ihe Minister ceased reading . ' . * ' - demesntfur ot the Opposition was moderate .
GERMANY . The aspect of affairs has been totally altered , and rcx ' . ered more menacing by the death of CountBrantknburg , the President of the Prussian Ministry , and the suppor : er of tbe absolutist cause in opposition to M . Radowitz , the representative of the constitutional party , whose retirement we noticed last ¦ we ek . The death of the Count , who was natural uacle to the king , is said to have been hastened by disputes with the king , and by his reproaches for the part he had taken at the Conference at Warsaw , ¦ when Russia and Austria outwitted him . The immediate result of his death was a reversal of his policy with respect to the hostile and aggressive policy of Austria . The ministry adopted a warlike attitude . Radowitz was closeted with the king . Tbe army was ordered to be mobilised , and prepared for ac : ive hostilities , and the Laud wear was ordered to

be ca « ed out , mating an addition '; to the already numerous mais of ^ ed ^ ae ^ now muntainedVby rUBSlfl v Rumours have reached thh country of skirmishes between the outposts of the two hostile armies in Hesse , and tbe prospect of an European war is imminent . The news created a panic among : the speculators on the Bourse at Berlin , but . the . corresppndent of th ' e " ,: Dally-News ' " says : —* The public received the intelligence ,-which was announced officially by the' Deutsche Reform , ' with absolute rejoicing . In reality this joy ,-and the hopes" which the prospects of actual hostilities have excited in the bosoms of the hundreds of thousands of armed men /
whose swords are ready to rush from their scabbards at the mere-ward of command , rouse vague apprehensions of the consequences if their joy should be destroyed , and their hopes be rendered vain , by another submission en the part of Prussia to the arrogant demands of Austria . I do not . believe that this will be the case : the intentions of the ministry are to take their ground on the position they at present hold , and to abide the consequences . Their acts speak for themselves . The summoning of the Land wehr of the first class , a body of 140 , 000 men ( in fantry , ) with 20 , 000 men ( cavalry ) and 928 pieces
of artillery , and of part of the Land wehr of the second class , 400 men of each battalion , but not the cavalry , are military measures taken only when war is no longer inevitable , and when the most energetic proceedings are necessary to prevent its commencing unfavourably . The standing army of Prussia , with tbe Landwehr of the first class and the portion of' the second class which has been summoned , will now amount to four hundred thousand men , with upwards of 2 , 000 pieces of cannon . A tolerably respectable force , with which to take the field and hold it , if the . financial means be provided .
Unless Prince Swhartzenberg recalls bis demand for the withdrawance of tbe Prussian troops from Hesse a war must ensue . Tbe other German states are all making military preparations . The affairs of Schleswig Holstein do not appear to have in the slightest degree progressed towards a settlement . .. _ . Gottfiried Kinkell , the eminent and . patriotic Professor of Bonn who was sentenced to death for the share he took in tbe Baden insurrection , and has since been kept in close confinement has , we rejoice to state , escaped from the . House of Correction at Spandau . Intercession had been . made with the King of Prussia to obtain his pardon , or his removal to a fortress , as there were doubts whether
his imprisonment among thieves and murderers was legal , the secondary punishment for ( reason being , as in Austria , imprisonment in a citadel , with or without fetters . But the authorities were inexorable , and the poet and professor was treated with the utmost strictness , dad in the convict ' s dress , denied the use of books or writing materials , and compelled to spin a certain quantity of . wool daily . Little had been heard of him since his removal to Spanda , but his friends had not lost sight of him , for from the manner ef his escape he must have had assistance from without . On his cell being opened this morning it was found empty , and a rope hanging from the window showed that he had . descended by it to the ground .
In Hanover the open collections of money for the war in Schleswig Holstein have been forbidden . Negotiations were going on between the hostile governments , with a . view to prevent war . ; The' Cologne Gazette , ' under date Vienna , Nov . 8 tb , says that the .-ultimatum of Austria is that she will agree to the free conferences if Prussia will hind herself to the following stipulations : —1 . To evacuate Hesse Cassel within a week ; 2 . To evacuate Hamburg within six weeks ; and 3 . Solemnly and formerly to renounce the union , -v While the diplomatists were discussing . their points actual war commenced , as might have been foreseen , between the rival armies that have been poured into Hesse . Letters have been received from Fulda , according to which the . first shots have been fired on two
points . The Bavarian . soldiers , cavalry , advanced with sheathed sabres . The officer , commanding tbe Prussian outposts demanded the meaning of this proceeding , and requested tbe troops to halt . The Bavarians replied by laughter . Two warnings were then given on the Prussian side , and as , notwithstanding-, the Bavarians still advanced and came within 300 paces of the opposite force , the Prussians fired . Several Bavarians fell , the remainder retired . The village was then evacuated by the Prussians , and occupied by the federal troops . A Bavarian picquet , sent to reconnoitre the village on another aide , was repeatedly fired on 1 > y the Prussian hussars , who , however / did it no serious harm . In consequence of the renewed warlike demonstration of Prussia Saxony has also resumed her armament .
The intelligence from Stuttgart is important . On the 7 tn the Assembly of the Estates was dissolved by an order from the King , upon its refusal to vote a sum of 300 , 000 florins to put the army upon a war footing . The proposition was ' rejected by fifty-two voices against five . When the result of the division was known Baron von Linden ascended the tribune , and took the order for the dissolution of the Assembly out of his pocket . It was to the effect that the Extraordinary Assembly of the Estates was dissolved and its authority in every respect at an end—that tbe old Committee of Deputies of the last regular Diet , which was in action before the 10 th of Aug ., 1849 , was again to step into action . . 'As soon as the
terms of the dissolution were known a very , stormy scene ensued . ' The President Scboder said , * I reject this violation of the constitution , by virtue of which the old committee is called into action , and I summon the members to elect a committee out of their own body / ( Schnitser , a member , called out , ' The constitution is violated . ' ) Loud cries of 'Bravo ' at tbe President ' s proposition resounded through the hall . Baron von Linden then said , < I warn the Assembly not to venture upon any illegal steps . This Assembly is dissolved , and its authority is at an end in every respect . ' When he had said this the Mir nister left tbe ball . There was question : of calling in the troops to send the members a-packing , but nothing was done , and they proceeded quietly to elect their committee for guarding the constitution
intact . The town was quiet all the evening , but the troops were confined to their . barracks in case of tumults . This is of course but a sample of the measures which are impending in every state in Germany should the present military attempt on the part of Austria to restore the previous state of things prove successful—that is to say , simply andpnrely so , without tbe introduction of safeguards which are not as yet foreseen . As soon as a German Court feels that it has military strength on its side , and finds itself incumbered by the action of a' Chamber which was only tolerated in troublesome times , we may judge from tbe conduct of the Court of Stuttgart what course it will adopt . It is the conviction oi the profound insincerity of the Courts which stives vigour to the Prussian cause throughout the Rhenish provinces .
The ' Cologne Gazette has two telegraphs from Berlin—one dated on the morning of the 12 Nov ., nd the other in the evening of tbe same day . The first states that the last . intelligence received there ms to the effect that Hanover bad protested against the match through that country of the Austrian-troops on their way to Holstein . It adds , ' The situation becomes very serious . ' The second despatch stales that the Russian military divisions were in motion towards the west , with a view to the occupation of Austria ' s eastern provinces , in the event of war . Field-Marshal Radelski was expected in . Prague with 50 , 000 men . -.- .. --
A letter from Cassel , dated- November II , states that Hersfeld , the position of the Prussians at the date of the last intelligence , had been abandoned by them . This opens the way to Cassel to the Austrians and Bavarians . The' Frankfort Journal' states that the federal fcoops will march immediately from Fulda to Cassel . Dates from Vienna of the 10 th state that on the previous day four heavy cavalry regiments departed for the Silesian army , while frontier battalions passed through almost daily for-Bobemia .
The « Frankfurter Oberpostamts Zeitung' argues that war may be somewhat less imminent tban some suppose , from the fact that no orders have been received for the mobilisation of the Thuringian con . tingent . The entire frontiers of Coburg were occupied by Austrian troops , to the number of 20 , 000 , with forty , guns . The papers are full of accounts of movements of troops in all directions . A telegraphic despatch from Vienna , November 9 , states that the modified Austrian ultimatum sent to Prussia required the giving up of the union , and granted free ' conferences with the acknowledgment of the Bundestag . . '
The « Kolner Zeitung' states , from Ca rlsfuhe , that the division of Baden among tbe south German Powers has been agreed upon in the Conference at Bregenz . The' Deutsche Zeitung aus Bohmen' jsya that the

Conferences at Warsaw were held solely for the purpose of concerting measures against Prussia and the revolutionary propaganda in Europe . i .
ROME . ; " »¦ ' ' r . ' 3 ¦ .- ' ¦ ¦ s . ¦ y ' : ' ; , .- '• . , While the aggressive policy of the Pope is producing so much excitement in this country , his power is clearly decreasing in his own capital . The correspondent of . the 'Daily News' under dateofthe 4 th inst ., says :-r ; ^ fj : ^^ ' ^? I have just witnessed the state procession of his Holiness toJbe , church , of San Carlo , this morning . There were a good number of spectators , but all observed a dead silence as the Pope passed . French infantry occupied the piazza , * £ im ' , and police were in great abundance , and the carriage of his Holiness was preceded and followed by an unusually strong escort of noble guards . French dragoons and ^ en * darmerie . Roman cavalry and carabinieri . It is melancholy to . see the pastor visit his flock with such a threatening array . '; . ; . ' . :,. -- ,,.: ' ,: ; .
, It was especially observed this morning { hat no one went on his knees to implore the papal benediction , and but a few . of . the bystanders took off their hats as the sovereign corfeoe passed , in con . sequence of which coldness hk Holiness chiefly occupied himself in blessing the French troops . Could he bat have heard the remarks of the crowd , he would have had enough to reflect upon during his ride homewards to the Vatican ; but no doubt he . is sufficiently well-informed of all that goes on . It is a fact , and a lamentable one too , that a feeling of deep and settled resentment ; prevails between PioNono and his subjects . On the part of-the people this feeling has originated in the destruction
of liberty , the imposition of grinding taxes , and the oppression of foreign troops , attributable' to , the restored government ; whilst the . Pope ' s vanity , has , been too profoundly wounded for him ever to pardon those who not only dethroned him , but laughed at him and all his cardinals into the bargain . . Hence springs the merciless disposition pervading all his present actions . A conversation which Cardinal Ugoiini had with bis Holiness two days ago displays this feeling more strongly than any observation on roy part , the cardinal Introduced .: the subject . pf the new taxes , in the hope of mitigating the Pope ' s
resolution in some measure , but his Holiness soon put an end to the discussion by stating that he was well aware of the discontent and ill humour that the measure had produced , but tbat taxes were necessary , that they were imposed in every country in the world , and that , however reluctant his subjects might be in the beginning , they would pay . as quietly as possible in the end . This remains to be seen ; meanwhile , the Romans have recourse to their usual weapqn 8 , ! thgse of satire . .. Vis ¦ . ., The last pasquinade which has appeared on the walls of the city is of rather a warning tone ; It is as follows ;— ¦ -
" Antonelli , Antonelli ! JN ontoccar i poverelli ;! Che so tu Ii tocoherai ; ' . Non arrivi a Carnevale ! " ' ' ¦ ' " Antonelli , Antonelli , touch not the poor I If you touch them you'll never see Carnival more ! " > ¦
>¦ -SPAIN . ' ¦; . ;; : ; . ., At the first sittings of . the ,. Cortes ,. some sharp debating took place upon the wholesale bribery and ntimidation employed by . the government at the elections . During the election some electors had their houses searched and . their persons arrested , under the pretext that they had been smuggling , in order to prevent'them from going to the poll . "
TURKEY . . ; i . At ten in the morning of the 23 rd ; of October , the 120 gun ship , Neiri-Shefketj carrying" the Admiral ' s flag , blew np in theGolden Horn . Of 700 men who were on board , only ' 200 bodies had been picked up . The 'Journal de Constantinople * of the 24 th thus describes this appalling accident : — . ' Yesterday ( Wednesday , ) about ten in the morning , a frightful explosion shook the whole port . The three-decker , Neiri-Shefket , of 120 guns , bearing the admiral ' s flag , blew up in the part of the . port
situated below the arsenal in the midst of the whole Ottoman fleet . The powder magazine had caught fire . In a few minutes the port was . strewn , with fragments of the ship mixed , with dead bodies . The ship remained for fire minutes rocking before she went down , and then sank , leaving only her maintopgallant mast above water . Between six and seven hundred men were oh board the admiral ' s ship when this dreadful catastrophe , of which the causes are still unknown , took place . About 200 bodies have been picked up . *
AMERICA . By the last steamer we . have advices to the 29 th "K-. > .. ' .. ; . -. ¦ ' .-. ' . .- "¦ 'Z - > ... ^ ' - " -.. .. ¦ The news from Mexico reach to the 20 th . ult . The Presidents ! election bad been held , but the returns , which were beginning to come . in freely , do not yet show who baa been the successful candidate ; According to present appearances , the choice lies between Almonte , who was supported by the extreme Federal or Democratic part ; , and probably received the votes of the State of Mexico , and Arista , be-, longing to the . Moderate Republican school of
politics , and . sustained by the whole government influence . The votes in his favour are less than was expected , although it is supposed by some that his election has been secured . It is not improbable that the election may terminate in a revolution ., In case of tbe success of Almonte , it . is stated tbat Arista would endeavour to establish the independence of the North-eastern States under the name of the Republic of the Sierra Madre , in which portion of the country he is very popular , although the States composing it have always adhered to the Federal politics represented by Almonte .
The ravages of the Indians on tbe North-eastern frontier have excited the attention of the Mexican government , which is about to take ; vigorous measures for their suppression . ^ , Don Tomas Murphy has been appointed Minister to Great Britain , in place of Dr . Mora . The railroad between Vera Cruz and Sao Juan was opened on the 16 th of September . : The latest accounts from Cuba state that on . the 7 th and 8 th inst . seventeen persons , all Cubans , were arrested by " the new . Governor of .. Malanzas , on the charge of being spies ; and revolutionists . ; They are some of the most wealthy and ; , conspicuous persons on the island . A part of them succeeded in escaping from the prison in which they had been confined , and the rest have since been released by order , ol the Captain-General . ' .
The Dominican government are making active preparations to repel the expected invasion by the Haytiens under . the Emperor Faustin I . The Dominican fleet , which consists of one ship , one barque , three brigs , and a large number of schooners was being put in order for actual service ; the fortifications were undergoing repairs ; and every male inhabitant capable of military duty had been enrolled . The command of the army was entrusted to
Santa Anna , who had entered upon bis functions with great zeal . There was no want of arms or ammunition . The acknowledgment of tbe independence of the Republic of St . Domingo , in the treaty recently ratified with England , was celebrated by a public dinner , at which the President of the Republic occupied the chair , and tbe British Consul was present .. In the coarsti of a speech by the latter , it was stated that England would riot interfere in the approaching struggle with Hayti .
\ The , excitement with regard to the Fugitive Slave Lawstillcbntinues strong in , the Northern States . It has been denounced in the severest terms by the several religious bodies , and the citizens have been recommended , on principles of conscience , not to comply with its provisions . Every attempt to put the law in execution has been met with general expressions of public . indignation . - In Boston , the opponents of the law have organised a large and active Committee of Vigilance , for the purpose of extending protection to the fugitive ,, and throwing every obstacle in the way of executing the law . Several civil officers have refused to aid the Marshal in making arrests . Still , a number of . fugitives , in dread of being captured , have fled to Canada .
f he country was still in the midst of the excitement caused by the elections . Each party were using the most strenuous exertions for the success of their respective ' tickets . ' The most important item of news supplied by the Californian papers is the failure of two extensive esiablishmenta—one an old and respectable concern-, the other a large banking-house . The causes of these failures are said to arise out of the late fires , and the consequent check given to all business affairs . The accounts from the mines were hi ghly cheering ; the precious ore continued abundant . The ' New York Tribune' has seen a gentleman who had visited the ' Gold Mountain' in California , so . long supposed to be fabulous ; and the 'Tribune ' gives this information : —
• The Gold Mountain Hies in about Iat . 33 deg . north , 250 miles east of Los Angelos in Southern California , and about 100 miles west of the Colorado . It is almost uaccessible , across deserts ol sixty or
