rraaeraary 17 , 1852 , a first warning is addressed to the rresstesse" newspaper in the person of M . ' Rouy , one of the uns / ans . and M . Emile de Girardin . Art . 2 . The prefect of i pofe police of Paris is charged with the ex » cntion of the prett dot decree . Done at Paris , April 9 , 1852 . —The Minister ( G » Gen-ral Police , DeMaupas . ' DhcThe Corsaire' has been seized , and on Saturday morn - ;; VgM . de Manpas summoned before him M . Mallac , forarlyerly the bead of a ministerial division under M . Guizot , rH aid at present one of the proprietors and redaetuers of the ^ s & ssemlilee Nationals ' 1 Tb . The royal style in which the Grand Duke Oonstantin e as tas treated the " Count de Cbambord at Tenice , has given reatreat umbrage to the Prince President , so tbat Jt seems by it mo means improbable that a more vigorous representative :: tb ! the republic will he despatched to the Queen of the ffirMmtic .
M M . Berryer dined a few davs ago at tbe Elysee . Larochccqacqufl « in " dined with the Prince-President a day or two Sjfoiefore M . Berryer , but the chief of La "Vendee bad at least lie he excuse that he went on a charitable mission . He had irit-ritten to Louis Napoleon to solicit the pardon of four legirmi ' misls condemned to transportation . The President ns « nswered b y an invitation to dinner , where they would talk server the matter . M . Berryer ' s excuse is not known . J ! M . Souesme , a rich proprietor of the Loiret , who was
nntoodfrnned to deportation by the court-martial of that de-Brtartment , for shooting a gendarme in tbe days of Decerneerier , has had his sentence commuted to simple expulsion mirom France . This has produced a bad effect upon the mbublic , who see in it a proof that there is one law for the iicHch and another for the poor . Why not have also comnunuted the sentences of thousands of poor men , who have « eoeen condemned to transportation to Algeria for offences ( aitar less grave than that of this rich proprietor .
Since the 2 nd of December e « ht journals of Paris , and ioibrty-nine in tbe departments have expired . Of the latter tiiaixteen were ligitimist , twenty-nine Republican , one Orlieleanisjt , and one Bonapartist . M . Alexandre Martin , ex-representative of tbe Loiret , wwfco was condemned to transportation to Cayenne , has been Beset at liberty . The forest administration has ordered about two hundred iwworkmen to clear tbe rides in the forest of Compiegne . It ins said that Louis Napoleon is to pay a visit to Compiegne ilia the month cf May . and although the season will be rather Mate for fneb sport , " that a few stags , and perhaps a boar or tttwo , will he run down with much pomp and circumstance . 1 The President is roakins extensive purchases of hounds of ' different breeds to compose his kennel .
PouTicai . Prisoners . —M . Qaentin Bauchart , charged 1 with tbe revision of the mixed commissions in the south of France , proceeded on the 6 hinst . to tbe Chateau d'lf , accompanied by several of 'he principal functionaries of the Bouches-do-Rhone . Thereafter having interrogated the prisoners , be oidered twenty-nine to be set at liberty . He was next to proceed to tbe Yar and ( he Basses-Aloes , to fulfil bis mission . General Canrobert arrived at Nevers on March 31 st , and set at liberty , or commu ed the sentence of seventy-four political prisoners , out of 225 condemned to transportation . The next day , at Cosnes , thirty-five ont of 185 were set free . At Glamecy , where the prisoners were very numerous , he granted but a small number of pardons . There remain there between 300 and 400 to be transported . AtAoxerre , onthe 7 ibinst ., he set at liberty 107 , on the condition of then * being subjected to the surveillance of the police
The extraordinary influence of ladies of the stage in procuring the pardon of people condemned to transportation , has caused it latterly to be said that the French government of the present day is a despotism tempered by actresses . It appears that in the destruction of Lagos the establishments of some French merchants , who profess to trade in gum , « ere invoked . These merchants , belonging chiefly to Marseilles , have addressed a memorial of their losses to the French government , and applications are now being made through the French embassy in London , to tbe British government , for indemnity .
The hopes of an amnesty that were faintly entertained in some quarters seem to be at an end . It appears that tbe delay in sending out the transport ships arose from the unprepared state of the authorities in Algeria to receive so many prisoners . The event of Easter Monday was & grand review in the Place du Carrousel . Tbe President arrived from tbe Elysee in a close chariot ; tbe carriage of his aide-de-camp was , on the contrary , uncovered . This distinction has drawn the more notice , as the President has latterly been in the habit of driving about in an open carriage . He was attended
to-day by a strong escort of cuirassiers . A good many crosses were distributed by the President in person . After tbe review , he returned to tbe Elysee on horseback along tbe Roe Rivoli , surrounded by a numerous staff , including many general officers . No precautions were taken to keep off the crowd oa this occasion , and the curious were even allowed to quit the foot-pavement , and to press rather closely upon the line Of the cortege . There were some cries of' Tire Napoleon ' in the Kue itivoli , but they were by no means general . The ceremony of taking off the hat as the President passed was only observed by comparatively few of taesuecttUKs .
The 'Patrie' estimates at 6 . 000 tbe number of persons sentenced to transportation throughout the whole extent of the republic The estates of Neuilly and Monceaux , formerly belonging to tbe Orleans family , and confiscated to tbe state by the decree of January 22 , were taken possession of on Monday by tbe administration of tbe domain of the State . The Cnnstitutionnel' states that the 10 th of May has been fixed for tbe grand review and destribution of eagles in the Champ de Mars . All the regiments composing the garrison of Paris will be present , and the other regiments of the French army will be represented by their colonel and a depotation . On tbe 9 th a fete will be given at the Ecole Milttaire by the French army to the President of tbe Republic , vho has accepted the invitation . '
The Prince de Canino has arrived in Paris , and , it is said , has had an interview with his cousin the President of tbe Republic . On Monday , on the employes of the domain taking possession of the park of Monceaux , it is said , the conceige refosed to give up the keys . A commissary of police was conseqnently sent for to overcome his scruples . On receiving the offer to continue in bis post this old servant of the Orleans family indignantly refused , saying that he would never consent to become the servant of robbers .
The Paris correspondent of the ' Daily News' says : — 'I have already stated in a previous letter , that M . Pierre Bonaparte received a pension of 84 , 000 francs , and that M . Luaen Morat bad received 1 , 000 , 000 francs . I understand to-day that the Prince Jerome has received 2 , 000 , 000 francs . The Princess UatbiUte fle Demldoff , Ma daughter , has tapped the pension W bicb 8 l 5 e mw ( A j erome 0 utof the ffiSt 23 Pnnce DemWoff WM obH sea to sett , e on Seventy-four political prisoners sentenced to transportation were transferred from Toulouse on tbe 10 th inst . The prisons in that city have been cleared of political prisoners . "
M . Emile de Girardin has addressed to the Minister of Police a reply to the ' warning * that he had received for having expressed an opinion that if the Empire were to , ht established , there might be some person of the old Royalist patty who would attempt to take the life of the chief of the state . He says that he could not guard against a risk which he could not foresee . The Tribunal and the Senate , in 1804 , both expressed , he says , a similar fear , and adds : — ' By perverting tbe meaning of tbe journal , the "Presse " nay be suppressed , but history cannot be suppressed . ' MM . IBchelet , Qainet , and Mickiewicz are re moved by decree from their professorships in tbe University . M . Martin de Strassbarg , Councillor at the Court of Cassation , bas refused to take the oaths of allegiance , and has resigned his place

made , and three years for cases of condemnation before th correctional police ; in every instance , before any demand could be entertained ; tbe whole of the damages and costs incurred should be paid up . The bill was ordered to be printed and distributed . The President also stated that he had received other bills from the Minister of State , tending to authorise the town of St . Omer , and the departments of the Hautes-Pyrenees , the Meuse , and the Pas de Calais , to contract loans . These four bills were ordered to be referred to the same committee . The order of the day was the report of the committee on tbe Copper Council
Coinage Bill , but tbe amendments referred to the of state not having been sent back , the report could not be prepared . Tbe President then stated that in a few days a series of bills would be presented to the Assemblyone relative to certain railway lines ; another to tne mortgage system ; another concerning ibe customs ; anu , in addition , the budget for 1853 . These various matters , the President observed , would afford full occupation to tbe Legislative body to the end of tbe session . As it was not possible to name tbe precise day on which the Legislative body would have next to meet , notice should be sent to the members at their residences . The sitting was then
brought to a close at a quarter to four
GERMANY . AUSTRIA . —ViE . vNA . -The death of Prince Schwarzenberg will not cause any change in the internal or the foreign policy of Anstria . The fortifying of this city is again under lively discussion , tbe project formerly entertained of the establishment of an enormous arsenal has received the Imperial sanction . Orders have been given for tbe preparation of the plans . ( § It IS said that the Emperor intends going to Venice immediately after tbe arrival there of the Grand Dukes Nicholas and Michael .
The » Gazette' of April 8 th contains a particular account of tbe funeral obsequies of the deceased prince , which took place yesterday . The body was laid out in state in a hall of the Foreign-office , and exposed during the morning to the gaze of the curious . The rooms , as usual , were hung with Mack , and tbe coffin was surrounded with lighted tapers . At two o ' clock the corpse was brought out and carried to the St . Michael's Kirche . After the funeral ceremony , a procession was formed and tbe coffin was taken to the station of the Northern Railway for conveyance to Bohemia . The Archdukes William and Rayner were there , numbers of the haute noblesse and the whole corps diplomatique , besides the ministry , all the generals in the city , and a crowd of functionaries . The military display was very striking . The crowd was quiet and respectful , which was all that could be expected of it .
On the 9 th inst . the Customs Congress at Vienna resumed its sittings . Dr . Hock addressed tbe delegates on the sub . ject of Prince Schwarzenberg ' s death , and announced that that event would not lead to any modification in the political and commercial system pursued by Austria . The emperor , he said , had given orders that this fact should be communicated to all the representatives of foreign couits . The French Consul at Trieste has , by order of his government , taken down tbe escutcheon bearing the words , ' Liberty , Egality , Fraternity , ' and replaced it by the imperial eagle . PRUSSIA . —The Hamburg Free Traders are violently agitating against the junction of Hanover with the Zollverein , because their particular commercial interests are thereby injured , and they fear that Hamburg itself may at length have no alternative but also to join the ZoIIverein .
The succession in Baden is said tu be settled . The heir apparent is to be proclaimed Grand Duke , but Prince Frederick is to conduct the government as regent . A total change of ministry and system is expected when this event takes place . The termination of the Hanoverian ministerial crisis is officially announced ; MM . Borries and Decken , tbe representatives of the knightly party , retire . By a resolution of tbe First Chamber of Darmstadt , tbe decision of the Lower House , re-establishing tbe punishment of death , has been confirmed .
ITALY . ROME . —Tbe difficulties raised by tbe Papal see against tbe oaths to be taken by French bishops , as members , ex officio , of the senate , will probably be smoothed down , in consideration of the President not having hitherto insisted upon his cousin being received into Borne . The operations of tbe police still continue to irritate tbe population of Rome and the environs . A barber of this city put an end to his existence a tew days ago in consequence of having been attested and ordered to leave Rome . He was the father of five children , and without the pecuniary means of obeying , and therefore in a fit of despair he took out his razsr whilst tbe gendarmes were conducting him up the prison steps , and cut his throat .
The' Genoa Gazette' of the 8 th inst . announces the departure of the Prince of Canino en the 6 th inst . from Civita Vecehia , on board the French steamer Industrie . The latter arrived at Leghorn on the 7 tb , and was to proceed to Marseilles via Bastia . NAPLES—The arrival of the Prince of Canino at Civita Vecehia has created considerable uneasiness at court . The despatches which announced this fact to the Neapolitan government at the same time stated the determination of the Pope to leave Rome , should the French minister fail in his endeavour to keep the Prince at Civita Vecehia . His Sicilian Majesty immediately sent off a courier , offering Pio Nono his old asylum at Gaeta ; but it appears his Holiness has de . eided to throw himself next time into the arms of Austria , should circumstances compel him to do so .
The authorities have received ciders from the Miaister of Police to watch attentively if Mural ' s name is uttered , and to report if they have any reason to suppose the existence of a French party . Meanwhile some fresh arrests have taken place . The state trials are suspended for an indefinite period . The well-known Navarro , President oi the Court , is dying from gangrene in the foot . TURIN . —The Chamber of Deputies on the 9 th inst . passed , by a large majority , the treaty of commerce between France and Sardinia .
HUNGARY . Several young men were arrested , a few days ago , at Pestb , for having worn tricolour ribbons , and cried ' Long live Kossuth 1 * Two toydealers were also arrested for having exposed for sale dolls and toys ornamented with the national colours .
TCJRKEY . CONSTANTINOPLE . —We learn that Ihe right of inflicting the punishment of death will be conceded to the Viceroy of Egypt for three years , in accordance with tbe advice of Sir Stratford Canning . —Breslau Gazette . _ The Porte , acceding to the request of Sir Stratford Canning , has consented that Abbas Pacha shall exercise for three years longer tbe right of life and death over criminals of Egypt . The power of pardon is to be exercised in tbe name of tbe Saltan , whose rights of Sovereignty the Pash is expected to acknowledge .
SPAIN . Maokio , April 6 . —The' Clamor Publico , ' the * Nacion , ' the « Constitucional / « Las Novedades , ' and the ' Heraldo ' have been seized . These journals have been obliged to publish new editions to appear . The public prosecutor has put in bis requisitions against the 'Nacion / OB account of the article offensive to the President of the French Republic , for which that paper was seized some days ago . He desires to imprison tbe editor for six months , and to fine him 39 , 000 reals . The case will be tried , and M . Sagasti , the manager of the ' Nacion' will conduct the defence . None of the journals are permitted to comment upon tbe new decree concerning the press .
Since the publicatmn of the decree upon tbe press almost every journal in Madrid has been daily seized and obliged to publish second editions deprived of tbe offensive articles . Several companies that have been publishing great numbers of translated French novels have been constrained to close their business , novels of that class being particularly the object of governmental interference
PORTUGAL . Dates from Lisbon to the 31 st ult . announce that the ordinary three months' session of the Cortes had been closed on that day , in consequence of the vote to abolish capital punishment for political offences noticed by the last Peninsolar mail , and the legislature was ordered to meet , for an extraordinary session ot two months , on the 28 th of May .
GREECE . Letters from Athens , in the German journals , slate that the Supreme Court of Appeal of Greece had confirmed the sentence of an inferior tribunal , condemning Mr . King , the American missionary , to fifteen days' imprisonment , a heavy fine , and expulsion from , the Kingdom , for having preached the Protestant religion in violation of the constitution . On this , Mr . King addressed to the Minister of Foreign Affairs a protest against tbe judgment both in bis own name and in that of the American government , from which he held , he declared , an official mission . He added that he would not voluntarily obey the jud gment . It was not known whether the Greek government would expel him by force ; but if it should , it was considered likely that the United States would take op his defence . The letters add that great scarcity exists in Greece , and that dreadful misery
prevailed in consequence . The eovemment w »„« . «!;» . J prevailed in consequence . The government was making extensive purchases of com in Turke y for distribution to the people .
RUSSIA . According to letters from Warsaw of the 23 rd ult . the Czar has shown mercy—Imperial mercy—to a number of Polish noblemen now in Siberia , whither they were sent with many who have since died , in 1834 . The unhappy ' men are to come back to what was their home , but not a

farthing of the revenues of their estates will they be allowed to handle , the government having long since appropriated the whole as rewards to its military and civil empfoi / es . The Act of Pardon says that only loyal subjects have a right to hold property in Russia .
UNITED STATES . The Royal Mail steamer Niagara , Captain Stone , arrived at Liverpool at ten on Tuesday evening , after rather a protracted passage from Boston via Halifax . On the morning of the Niagara ' s departure from Boston , a very destructive fire broke out in that city , which wholly destroyed that extensive building , the Tremont Temple , and greatly endangered the adjoining bouses , as well as the Tremont Hotel opposite . One person was killed , and others seriously injured , but it was not practicable to ascertain the loss of life aud property before the steamer sailed . Halifax papers of the 26 th ult . state that Messrs ^ Hove and Fullerton , liberal members , had been returned to the Canadian parliament . There ia no news of interest from any part of the United States .
INDIA . The Indian mail brought advices from Bombay to the 19 th ult . The Burmese expedition consists of 6 , 000 troops , two vessels of war , and thirteen steamboats . Additional forces from China were expected . The departure of the expedition was to take place from Calcutta and Madras ou the 19 th of March . The forces were to rendezvous at the mouth of the Case , or the eastern branch of tbe Irawaddy . The expedition would probably proceed up the latter branch to avoid the resistance prepared on the route by Rangoon , where 20 , 000 Burmese troops were assembled . The British forces were intended to advance to Prorae . Parties of tbp Burmese had ravaged the frontier villages . Advices received are from Bombay , March 15 ; Calcutta , March 6 ; Hong-Kong , Feb . 27 .
We have not as yet ( says the ' Bombay Times ') bad time to obtain further tidings of note from Burma !); such as have been received are anything but pacific . The King is said to have sent a deputation to the Commodore , stating that if the Fox would show some distinguishing flag , as indicative , we presume , of a tone of peace , she would not be molested or fired on from the stockades . To this no answer seems to have been given . On the 24 th of January an earthquake was experienced in Upper Scinde , Cutchie , and over Goozerat ; in the second named it seems to have occasioned much mischief . Intelligence has been received of the accidental smothering of fifty Coolies outof a cargo of 234 in the hold of the Futtay Salam during a hurricane off Madras on tbe 22 nd-25 th December . Tbe hatches had been battened down and cries for relief were unheard during the fury of the storm .
AFFGHANISTAN . —Dost Mahommed is quietly ruling , and Gholam Hyder is still at Jellahabad with a force of between four and five hundred regular infantry and about a thousand horse . The' Hurkaru' states , ' That some Burmese , just arrived from their native country , report that an army of 20 , 000 men has been got together to oppose the vapwidmg invasion . They say it is a month ' s journey from Rangoon to Ava , and that they are preparing to dispute every inch of the way . We shall see . ' The most important news from the North Western frontier is of Sir Colin Campbell ' s return to Peshawur . The force marched in on the 15 th ultimo after destroying a number of villages in the disturbed districts .
CHINA . The « Overland Friend' of February 2 ? has tbe following : — ' The Chinese New Year Holidays have passed brer quietly , so far ; and the affairs of the Empire are not known to be in a much more desperate condition than they were at the date of our last despatch . Fears were entertained , before the commencement of the year , for the safety and quiet of Canton ; but as mentioned on a previous occasion , we need not fear for Canton whilst KweHin-foo , the capital of Kwang-si ( the adjoining province ) is in the bands of the Imperialists .
1 The ink of this writing was not dry when we received the following important item of intelligence . Teen-teh has ordered his troops to proceed from five different points to attack the city KweHin-foo ; in consequence of which the Tartar general is in a great fright , and has sent despatches to Seu demanding an immediate supply of men and money . ' ' It is reported that on account of rebels having taken possession of Ping-nan-heen and Chaou-ping-heen , the Tartar general bad collected troops from tho four provinces of Kwang-tung , Cwang-se , Yunna , and Kwei-Ohow , to the number of 13 , 000 , to attack tbe rebel camp , which was
distant about 120 le ( forty miles ) . On the way they met , as by accident , a small body of rebels , who hastily retreated before them—the troops kept up a close pursuit , but in passing the night through an extensive grove of bamboos , they found themselves suddenly surrounded by fire on all sides , which , with the shot of the rebels , threw them in confusion . Above 6 , 000 of the soldiers were thus slain , so that the general was obliged to give up his design aud proceed elsewhere . ' By express from Peking we learn that a large body of rebels in Hoo-pih have coalesced with the Meaoustsz , mountaineers , and muster altogether above 20 , 000 men .

Wreck Of The Steamer Porto.—Oporto, Marc...
Wreck of the Steamer Porto . —Oporto , March 30 , —A most lamentable occurrence in the loss of the steamer Porto ( Portuguese ) has thrown , this city into the greatest consternation , all her passengers ( thirty-six in number ) having perished , and only seven of ber crew saved . That unfortunate vessel sailed from this on Sunday morning for Lisbon , and from some cause or another bore up again after being as far south as Figueira , and on taking tbe bar last evening about six o ' clock , she atruck on some rocks called the « Forcados , ' inside tbe bar , when the anchor was
let go , but somehow or other she drifted , and , not answering her helm , she got embedded in a reef of rocks , where no aid could be sent to her ; and , night coming on , she went to pieces in s few hours . Among the sufferers are Mr . Joseph Allen , of this place , and two daughters ; Mr . Anderson , from London , shipowner , who was here on account of the Harriet , bound to Australia ; Mons . Destrees , French Consul at this port ; Mr . Anderson ' s nephew ; Senhor Jose Augusto da Silveira Pinto , nephew of the wellknown Senhor Albano , of Lisbon ; Senhor Antonio Jose Placido Braga ; Senhor Francisco Vieira de Sousa Oliviera , of tbe Commercial Bank . As yet ho bodies have been picked up .
k letter from Christiana stales that an engineer in that place has just invented a machine for cutting through the ice . It is worked by steam , and has the form of a locomotive engine , with six cogged wheels . It sets in motion four saws , which make deep incisions in the ice , and as the cuts are made the men follow and break up the ice with heavy hatchets . It is by means of this invention that the ice in that port has been broken , and a free passage opened for several vessels to proceed to sea . Excessive Devotion to SCIENCE . —A medical man died some days since at Prague , in consequence of having swallowed poison as an experiment for the interest of science . He bad been in tbe habit of making these trials in presence of scientific men , after having previously taken an antidote ; but in this case the experiment proved fatal to him .
A party of thirty smugglers , belonging to the village of Gavernie ( Hauler-Pyrenees , ) -while passing , a few days since , through a defile in the mountains near that place , were suddenly overwhelmed by an avalanche . The inhabitants of the place , on hearing of the accident , immediately hastened to give assistance . Several of the men were soon dug out , seriously injured . Two were found dead , and five still remain buried under tbe snow . —French Paper . Six young men of the commune of Touillon , near Dijon , were tried a few days ago , by the Tribunal of Correctional Police of that city , for having in the carnival pa . raded , and afterwards decapitated , a stuffed figure representing the cure . The principal of the band was condemned to a month ' s , tbe second to a fortnight ' s , and the third to eight days' imprisonment . and tbe other three were severally fined sixteen francs . —French Journal .
