France. The Hill To Maintain The Duty On...
FRANCE . The hill to maintain the duty on polaMe liquors , was carried in the Assembly , on Tharsdav afternoon by 418 to 245 . The Court of Assiz-s of the Upper Garonne has acquitted the persons accused there of being accomplices to the insuirrction in Paris of the ISA of June . M . L ? outre , responsible fditor of the Reforme , ' was yesterday arrested , in execution of » judgment pronounced against him two months hack , by which he is condemned to six weeks' imprisonment . .
Pabis , Friday . —The debase in the Chamber today turned first upon the question of subsidies to Montevideo , government demanding 1 . 15 O , O 0 OTr . for that purpose . But as the report bad only been presented to-day , and notices had been given to nad it , government consented to take 5 u 0 , 000 fr . on account . Then came the debate on the demand for the payment in advance of the first quarter in advance of the hudget of 1850 . M . Santeyra said that if money was voted it implied a confidence in the ministry . He knew that the money was necessary . Ira * he wished also to show that he had no confidence in the present cabinet . An amendment proposed by thai ban . member , was , however , rrjecled , and the law passed . The motion relative to the circulation of the Bank of France was under debate when the
pi-si left . ^ The committee appointed te examine the proposition tended to alter article 1781 of iLe civil code , which declares " that , in disputes between masters and servants , the former are to be believed on their assertion , has had its report presented by M . Chrgaray . In what relates to masters and sen-ant ; , it recommends that no change be effected . In the point which concerns masters and workmen , the committee declares that there would have been no necessity for modifications in the present legislation , had not the extension given by the jurisdiction of Prudhomme insured to the workmen greater guarantees against rtcir employers . As it is , no modification is deemed by the committee to be necessary . The following is our Paris correspondent's letter dated Friday , five p . tn .:
—* M . Emile de Girardin , in the' Presse , of this day , puUlishes his promised critique on the ac's of the government since the 20 th December , 1848 , the day on which Louis Napoleon took the eatlis in the Constituent Assembly as President of the Republic . Aftr-r enumerating the various acts of the eovfrnnient M . Girardin says that the . events of the past year may be summed up in the following words : — * Acts of severity and not one reform . Faults and not an amelioration . Expenses and not «> r . e eco-BO . *« . -y . Words and not one act . The year « s cmeluded with credits voted to the amount of 1675 millions , and by an excess of expenditure over the re . ceipts of 290 millions traces . '
'The Republican papers are not more favourable than M . de Girardin to the government of ? he President ? The 'National' says-. — - ' A year a « o , day for day , hour for lioir , M . Louis lhionaparte . proclaimed President of the French R-uublie , pronounced thefollowiag words : — 'I will seek all the means calculated to relieve the sufferings of that generous and intelligent people who have ? iven me so signal a piorf of their confidence . ' To-day , 20 th of December , 1849 , on the proposition of M . Louis Buonapane , the most onerous tax for t ! i <* . people , the tax on liquors , abolished by the C- ^ tituenr Assembly , has been re-es'ablished in the Legislative Assembly by a majority of 418 to 245 . ' : ¦¦ ¦ ¦
' It is now a year / says the Repuhl-que . ' since the President of the Republic has exercised his functions . What has his government achieved ? What acts deserving the approbation , and praise of impartial historyJave marked the first ' yearof his power ? A-nongst t . hein none are more remarkable than the prosecutions directed against the republican press . Now , these prosecutions amoup ^ fto" 804 , and th »* condemnations prononncedinnflicV finos to- . the amount of 418 , 300 / . ( exclusive of costs and the additional war tax of one-tenth ) and 213 years' imprUontnent . We concede that the elect of the lflth of December should diVdain popularity !'
A Socialist banquet was announced far the 16 th inst . at Toulouse , in . honour of M . Madier de Munijsu , and some other political persons lately acquitted by the Court of As * izes . The company had already assembled in the room called the Grand Orient , when the police interfered and called on the persons present , about 100 in number , to disperse . The guests at once withdrew without a . oy disturbance taking place . The * Ropuhlician de la Moselle' has been seized oy order of the Attorney-General for having pu b - lished an article containing an attack on the right which the President of ihe Republic derives from the Constitution—an offence against the person of the President—an actack on the pr'ncip ' e of Universal Suffrage—all tending to excite the hatred and contempt of the people against the government ofthe Republic .
Paris , Saturday , Dec . 22 . — -It is asserted in the best informed legitimate circles , notwithstanding the contradiction given in the ' Revue des Deux M « udes , ' that negotiations are being carried on to effect a union between the two branches of the Honse of Bourbon , and that those nego ia'ions are likely to end in a complete reconciliation between the parties most deeply interested in their success . — Times correspondent .

morning a ommissary of police , accompanied by three agents , presented themselves at our offices with a warrant to search for letters , purporting to have heen written from Belle He , hut which , it is said , were fabricated . Alter a strict examination , the eomsjissary retired , taking with him a document which had been deposited with us , and which was a protest , signed by musty-eight of the transported prisoners who remained at Belle lie , against the term - repris de justice , ' which had been applied to them . *
M . Colfavru , one of the recently amnestied insurgents , was arrested yesterday . The f-. ost which set in last night appeared to have paralysed the niovsraea ' -s of the Bourse to-day . The little business transacted was done at a decline on yesterday ' s prices , [ ft is to be regretted that the frost did not frtizs the speculators past thawing again . ] Paris , Sunday . —The * Moniteur' publishes the following diplomatic appointments : — ' General Castelaiac to be Minister Plenipotentiary to the Emperor of Russia , in place of General Lamoriciere ,

ITALY . PIEDMONT .-Letters from Turin , of the 16 th , announce that the Sardinian Government have refused to grant letters of naturalisation to Terenzio Mamiani , formerly Prime Minister of Pope Pius IX ., who had beeaWected a deputy for Genoa . The ' Piedmontese Gazette' contains a notice inviting the deputies of the new Chamber to meet en the 19 th for the despatch of preliminary matters . The' National' of Turin , of the 16 th inst ., menlions numerous political arrests that have taken place at G ; noa , in consequence of the police having discovered some traces of an intended political movement .
According to the ' Legge , ' the continental elections of the Chamber of Turin are all known . The results are stated as follows : —Right and right centre , 116 ; left and left centre , 64 . A rumour it current at Turin that M . Deraarghenta , one of the ministers , is about to resign . Opening of the Chambkks . —The Chambers were opened on the 20 ih inst ., by the King in person . ROME . —Letters received in Toulon from Rome state that the Pops was less disposed than ever to return to his capital . The protest and persuasions of General Baraguay d'Hiliers bad bad no effect with His Holiness . It was feared that Pius IX . would insist on the evacuation ot Rome by the French troops .
Dec . 10 . —Things seem hastening to a crisis in Rome , and we shall soon probably know what is to be ( he final result of the French expedition ; whether the Roman States are to be evacuated by the French or to be taken ; possession of—whether we are to have a complete restoration of the-Popedom in all its former rights and prerogatives , or only a subsi lized Popedom , under foreign control , and under a military protectorate . Who are to be the protectors of Rome if the French depart ? The Spaniards .. re already on the way back to their native home . The Austrians are , indeed , near at hand : but the great professed object of the French expedition nas to keep them out of Rome . The only other militarv
force to which a transference could be made is the Neapolitan , and it is much to be doubted whether a Neapolitan army ef occupation could long keep possession of Rome and the adjoining territory , for although many Romans whose trade has been injured by the revoluion , now desire a restoration of the former state of things , there can he no doubt that to the hu \ k of the people the priestly government is as odious as before . And although the French army of occupation is now weary of Rome , and of • he work impressed upon them here , and would be glad Ie sing thz'CAant du depart' any day in the * eek , yet I do not believe tney will again wholly evacuate Rome . I am rather inclined to believe
that the unsettled state of things here , and the threatenings of war in Europe at no distant period , will ^ nduce them to remain until they are driven ultimately by' the course of events ( which in these days arc manifestly stronger than men ) to bring the Pope and Italy into more complete subjection to foreign control ; It should never be forgotten by every watchful observer of the times that ' the French Revolution , ' as a British modern historian well remarks , ' was not so much a revolt against the governmen t and institutions , as the morality and faith of former times ; ' and although a considerable reaction in favour of Roman Catholicism has lately ieVju place in France , vet the bulk of the people .
especially the army , are untouched by it . I conceive , therefore , that M . Falloux and his coadjutors have outreached themselves in sending a French expedition to Rome . The French soldiers and officers are , after all , almost to a man , the children of Voltaire and of the revolution ; their ideas , passions , language , and whole current of thought , are antisacerdotal ; they are involuntary propagandists on liberal ideas by their example , and by the journals of France which are circulated in Rome . Many times have I been to St . Peter ' s since my arrival in Rome ; and never have I " seen the French officers and soldiers whom I met there treat the religions
ceremonies of the place with any other notice than that of indiff-rence and contempt ; in short , in this , as in everything else , they proved themselves to he the grandchildren of ' 89 in the past , and the children of ' 30 and ' 48 in the present century . The time may come when they may he more active propagandists of liberal ideas than they are at present . December 14 . —I had expected in my present communication to be able to announce some definite results arising from the late visit of General Baraguay d'Hilliers to Portici . I am assured the military diplomatist has entirely failed , and that neither the Pope nor cardinals are likely to return to Rome for the present . His Holiness remains at Portici , and I
am under the impression that up to the present moment he is as far from the Eternal City as on the day when diplomacy greased the wheels for his Sight . M . de Corcelles has continued to hover about like a bird which has lost its prey . The Jesuites are again thrown back , for the moment , to finaer the rosary of Hope . NAPLES , Dec . 10 . —The government plan for ah ^ elving the King from bis constitutional oath is progressing . From the provinces I learn petitions , praying his Majesty to annul the constitution , are now b ? iag presented to all classes , particularly landowners . It may be easily imagined few will have the courage to refuse signing under the despotism of a police which observes no law hut that of force .
I know of no traces whatever of the constitution existing at the present moment , excepting that of the official journat , which still retains the word ' Constituzionale . ' The government has violated every constitutional law since the closing of the Chambers : it fixed the budget without any vote of the Chambers ; ' decrees' have stifled the freedom of the press ; the sort of habeas corpus of the new law has heen set at nought ; the kirn : has fai ' ed to call the chambers within the limited time ; and , in fact , it would be nest to impossible for the most corrupt set of men to meet a National Assembly after what has taken place . The only plan open is that adopted , viz ., io frighten people into a prayer to the king for the destruction of the name constitution . It will be said .
after these plans are completed , that the majority did not desire a free and open government . In truth , this is the great game of his Neapolitan Majesty , and I can refer to his organ in the British press as a proof of this statement ; but if this be the case , I ask , why have so many arrests taken place for constitutional opinions , and why have twothirds of the nobility and nearly all the educated mea of the kingdom fled from Naples ? I record the well-known facts , the reader will supplv the answer .

General ( Baron Radowitz ) and his President ( Dr

l Botticher ); and B *» Majesty the Emperor of Austria haviag likewise appointed Charles Baron Kubek-Knbin a privy Councillor to His said ImpedtlMijesty and the Field-Marsbal-Lieutenant Charles Baron Schoohals , to act as members of the Federal Commission as created by virtue of the convention aforesaid ; and the «» id Commissioners having been in dentified ' by an examination of their respective ' warrants , his Imperial Highnes the Archduke and Regent John has invited tha said Commissioners to reciiveand to testify to his resignation . ' Dr . Mettenius acted as clerk to the Commission . At one o ' clock p . m . on the 20 th of December his Imperial Highness the Archduke-Regent entered the Council-room , accompanied by the gentlemen
farming his cabinet , viz , the'President of the Cabinet ' and Secretary-at-War , Prince Sa ^ n-Wutgenstein-Berleburg ; the Minister of Foreign Affairs and First Lord of the Admiralty , Mr . Jochmuch ; tbfi Minister of Justice , of Home Affairs , and of Commerce . Mr , Detmold ; and the Minister of Finance , Mr . Merk . Whereupon the Commissioners of the two Governments produced the convention which was concluded between the Governments of Prussia and Austria on the 30 th of September , together with the declara . tion of adhesion of the German governments , excepting the Governments of Oldenburg ( although there is a promise of assent ) and of Luxemburg ; the adhesion of the King of Holland , who has declared his adhesion to the convention as Duke of Lunhurg , being pre-supposed for his Duchy of Limburg .
These documents and the warrants of the said Commissioners are added to the minutes . His Imperial Highness the Archduke and Regent eondesceno ' ea' to make the following declaration : — tGentlemen . You are aware that I have long wished to resign my office . But since when I took that office the Federal Diet pronounced its own dissolution , and since the National Assembly followed its example at a latter period , I saw that I could not yield to my inclination without breaking the
bonds whioh contain the German States , thereby surrendering Germany to danger and to all but ruiti . ' My duties compelled me to remain until another organ for the discharge of the common business of the country , should have been created . That moment is come . The two bearers of my power were the totality of the German government and the German National Assembly . My feelings compel me to give ray sincerest thanks to them for their co-operation and assistance .
' The National A ? sembly exists no longer . That Assembly hastened on its own end by overstepping its legal limits , and by making the widest strides in a false direction at a time when the coursa of events was such that the slightest deviation from the legal side of the question 'must necessarily lead to certain
rum .. - 4 The decline and fall of the National Assembly is a lesson to the German people . It shows that there is but one way for our Constitution—the way of calm and intrepid progress and of a conscientious respect for justice and law .-= 'After the dissolution of the National Assembly , I could resign my office only to the totality of the German governments , and Austria and Prussia have concluded a provisional convention , which the other members of the Confederation thought proper to accept .
* Pursuant to my eventual consent , which I gnve on the 6 'h of October , and according to paragraph seven of the said convention , I resign my office as Regent , and I resign the rights and duties of . the Confederation into the bands of their Majesties of Austria arid Prussia . I have the consciousness of having faithfully laboured to exercise my power for the glory and the welfare of the country . ' Success has not yet crowned the endeavour to surround that country with other Constitutional bonds , to insure and strengthen its greatness and
power . But the old bonds are preserved , and peace is secured . But , I shall not be able to look with pleasure on the time of my administration until the futurity of the country is secured by a more lasting union . But ray cares on the subject of that union are lightened now that I see the subject under protection of two of the most powerful among the German gavernraents . If these two will act in harmony , if they will cleave to their right , and thus lead the way , the other governments may safely follow them as their leaders and success will crown the work .
' May Germany profit by experience , and may her fates , by the assistance of Almighty . God , be brought to a prosperous issue by the harmony and the patriotism of the German Princes , and by the good spirit of the nation . ' After his Imperial Highness had finished his speech , the Austrian Privy Councillor , Baron Kubeck , replied lo it by thanking his Highness for the intrepid manner in which the Archduke had executed the important functions of his office during a time of unparalleled danger ; and the proceedings being thus terminated , the records of the trausacion were signed by the following persons : — A-chdufce John , Wittgenstein , Jochmus , Detmold , Merk , Kubek-Kubau ( Austrian Commissioner , ) Scbonhals ( Austrian Commissioner , ) Radowils ( Prussian Commissioner , ) Dr . Botticher , ( Prussian Commissioner . )
Two members of the ex-German Assembly , of Frankfort , Dr . Heldmann and M . Bogen , were arrested at Darmstadt , on the 23 rd , on the charge of high treason . BERLIN , Dec 19 . —The second Chamber adjourned to-day until the 4 th of January , 1850 . The Upper Chamber has adopted , by a large majority , the law for the regulation ofthe parishes . Dec . 20 . —The Upper Chaaiber adjourned to-day to the 4 h January , after resolving at the last moment , in accordance with its usual character , hot to liberate from prison the well-known democrat , Temme , who has been elected a member of the Upper Chamber . Herr Temme has been confined some months for participating in the resolutions of th * German National Assembly at StuttgatdU
Dr . Rioger , of Prague , has been ordered to leave Berlin by the police authorities , it is reported on the requisition of the Austrian ambassador . The German journals bring little news of interest . A telegraphic despatched from Stuttgard , dated the evening of the 22 nd December , announces the dissolution of the Wurtemberg Chambers by royal command . SAXONY . —The Lower Chamber has affirmed the motion for an address to the crown , praying for an amnesty for the persons implicated in the insurrection of May . The general committee of the Denncratio party , has resolved to issue a declaration against the party taking any share in the forthcoming elections to the German parliament .
AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY . Vienna . —It is rumoured on the exchange that the government intend to make a forced loan for the Lorahardy Venetian kingdom to the amount of ninety millions Austrian Hvres , at four per cent . ; three-fuths of which are to lie paid in coin , and twofifths in treasury notes . Accounts from Transylvania are most unsatisfactory . The Roraani and Saxon populations are at daggers drawn , and the war of races ready to break out again .
INSURRECTION IN SEHVIA . An electrical telegraph report , confirmed by the correspondent of the ' Daily News , ' supplies the following Important intelligence : — Vienna , Dec . 20 . —The courier who came in last night from Semlin brought intelli gence which has thrown the government into great agitation . A rebellion on the most formidable scale has broken out among the Servians . Syrmia , Slavonia , and the military boundaries are up in arms against the Austrian government . The Slavonian and Servian boundary regiments have revolted , and raised the
cordon of the Turkish frontier , so that their rear is fully secured . From the brethren of their race in Turkey they are assured be ' orehand of all supporta circumstance which will complicate the relations already sufficiently epinews between Austria and the Porle . The boundary regiments , which have revolted , are among the bravest and hardiest soldiers m the Austrian service . The ground of their rising is resistance to the decree of Nov . 18 , organising ' the womodesJmft . The chief movement is in the Syrmian , Peterwardeiu , and Tehaikist military districts , which are exasperated at being excluded from the woiwodeshoft . ¦ :. ' \; . . ¦< .
I beg particularly to call your attention td ' tKe ijir ^ cumstances of the cordons being raised as a mdit im portant feature in this insurrection ,:.-W & 3 ti $ ti Hungarian and Polish refugees who have the ' meanf of escaping from the custody of the Porte will be thus able , without difficulty , to join the Servian insurgents . The military force alone ofthe rebels is estimated at 120 , 000 men , with 110 cannon ; and if they are joined by the Croats , which appears higblv probable , they will have 200 , 000 men , with 300 cannon . The numbers of the insurgents are daily swelled by 4 e «

The confessions of numerous desertions and ( treat discontent give room to the puhlec to surmisehow much worse the real state of affairs must be .
TURKEY AND RUSSIA . The Turkish government seem anxious to show to Europe that the , idea which some time since orevailed of the Hungarian-refugees being badly treated on their arrival in the Ottoman territory is entirely fain * A body of Italians -who had served under Bern lately arrived a Adnanople from Widdin . the son of the Pasha went out to meet them at the bead of a body of troops , and they made a sort of triumphal entry into the town . The Turkish soldiers , lined the way as they passed along , and they were accompanied by the military hands of the garrisonplaying martial airs . On
, ^ the day after the arrival of this Italian brigade , a grand funeral service was performed in one of the churches , with the permission of the Pasha , for the reoose of the souls of those who felt in the late strugKle in Hungary ; M ^ derTitoff and Count de Sturmer have both complainedloudly to the Grand Vizier of the conduct of the Governor of Adrianpple , who gave so triiimphial a reception to these Italian rebels . Diplomatic relations are suspended by the Porte and the Allied Imperial Powers ; and . yet the their
representatives of Russia and ' Austria make complaints as haughtily loathe Grand Vizier ^ as though , they had just p laced » the' ; Porte under some great obligatigp . ' ;;;; The Ost Deutsche Post ' ( a ^ Viehna paper ) has letters from Odessa , ; ofc . the 5 th ' .-inst-, stating that a Russian flotilla of five ships of the line of 100 guns has arrived in the port of that city .: : Tbis squadron is intended to take a transport of troops to Sebastopol . Great activity is displayed in all the Russian ports and dockyards in the Black Sea .
SPAIN . Letters from Saragossa mention that the dili . gence which set put from that place , , on- the 13 th , was stopped by six highwaymen , whb . ordered the driver , coach guard ,. and passengers , to lay on the ground'in the middle of the . road . In the rotunda , or hinder partition of the diligence , there happened to , he two civic guards , to : whora the driver of the diiigence had given a lift oh thsir way to their post .
T ' nese . men , instead of getting out with the rest re . lhained in their places , and on the captain of'the highwaymen locking in to see whether there were any more passengers , shot him dead , and then jumped out ' attacked the others , sword in hand . - The' ' noise- of the firing iattracted the companies ofthe . civic guards , who were ., trudging 6 a at a distance , and the highwaymen were pursued , but without effect . The body of the chief was brought to Saragossa , where he is well known . ' .
Letters from .. the provinces state that-the , partial election ' s are all'in favour of the moderado party , the progres ' sistas showing remarkable apathy , or limiting themselves to grumbling about ; the undue influence of the authorities and the acts o | ii | lega ^ every ^ he re exercised . To day ' s pwt . ^ tfteftyaSWr- ' day ' s . ibriq ^ ii . us a budget of assassinations , highway robberiesi'complaints of the excessive contributions and universal paralysstion of trade . The accounts from the province of Murcia are most distressing ,
In . that province . one of the mosfcfertile in Spain , it has not rained for so long thatrvegetation is almost null . The inhabitants emigrate to Africa , or to the adjoining provinces ,, and . the government when appeatta * to , to lower . 4 he contributions there , and mjjfe canals , and give . 'the hapless labourer means ol employment , is utterly at a loss what to do , there lifeing no money in the treasury for the common necessities of government , much less to give without much prospect of returns .

UNITED .

An angry spirit prevails throughout the Union , and in one , if not more of the . state messages , may be found calls addressed to Congress to decide at once , and at any risk , the question of the Central Power ' s authority in reference to slavery .
Our advices state that daily from the date of our previous letters to that of thie accounts now received ballotings had been held ; thirty-two had heen taken , Messrs . Winthrop ( Whig ) and Cobb ( Democratic ) being the leading candidates . Subse quently , the favour of the latter candidate diminished , and Mr . Poller was put forth in his place . That position he maintained but for two ballots , and then gave place to Mr . Brown , of Indiana . Pending the decision of House , the Senate remained inactive , adjourning from day to day . Several days might still elapse before the organisation of the House . There were no signs of an arrangement , both parties remaining uncompromising ;
