TRANCE , [ The electUs for the sham _parliamenl are _cancMed , In _i-ine districts fr «* b elections will have to lake place , _ineoo-Squence of candidates having been returned opposed to I Louis Napoleon , or because they bad not the reqmsite i number _ofvotes . These fresh e _' ec . ions will take place next _iSnndav . Five successful opposition candidates bave been xetom ' ed . These are MM . de Kerdrel , elected for Fouceres ; de _Civrac , far Beaopreau ; Boubier de _l'Ecluse , for fables d'Olonne ; Cavaignac , for Paris ; and de _Calvieres _, in the Gard .
The Corps _Legislatif is convoked for the 22 th inst ., and its first session is to terminate on the 20 th June . By a decree in the 'Moniteur , ' Billault is appointed President of the Corps Legislative . Refusal by any functionary to jike the oaib of allegiance without alteration or reserve , is _equivalent to resignation . Letters from Paris state lhat there is the visible preparation of the public miad , by semi-official organ 3 for the proclamation of the empire . With this view M . Amedee de
Cesena has penned an article in the * Public , ' of which he is editor in chief . At the end of this ominous composition he informs his readers that ' the enthusiasm of the people makes it the duty of Louis Napoleon to conquer by the acts of his presidency a place between Louis XIV . and the Emperor Napoleon I . ' The nnmeric adjunct to the emperor ' s name is noticed as the more significant , as M . de Cesena has been , since December 2 , wbat M . Granier de _Cassagntc « _ubefor-th-t epoch , the prophetic herald ot the Prince President ' s decrees .
M- Bocher has been tried before the Tribunal of First Instance on the Seine . The result has been a check for the government , since M . Bocher has been condemned only to a fine of 500 francs , without imprisonment ; and the two employes who were indicted with him on the same charge of distributing publications without the name of the printer being attached , were sentenced to a fine of _loOfr . This slight punishment is in . fact equivalent to an acquittal , and is accepted as a triumph , by the OrleauUts . M . Bocher was introduced between two gendarmes , and made to sit on lie same bench which is occupied by common felons . He made an excellent and moderate speech on his own behalf . But the oration of M . Odillon Barrot in his defence has made a prodigious impression . M . Barrot spoke with
great energy and vigour . He said tbat M . Bocher had performed his " dnty . He was bonnd to distribute the _pubication in question , not only as a defence against a most unjustifiable invasion of the rights of property , but as the - protest of filial piety against the memory of an outraged father . The latter expression alludes to the letter of the princes . The deliberation lasted for two hours and a half . The length of this sitting was attributed to the circumstance tbat the court sent to the ministry of police to know if ihe trial would be allowed to be published in the newspaper * . Leave was given . The government , however , will not quietly _submit to tbis check , a 3 is shown by the Procureur General having given notice of appeal to a higher court , where he will pres 3 for a more severe punishment . M . Bocher , has not been again taken into custody .
Oa Monday night at half-past eleven a large body of political prisoners , destined for transportation , were escorted by detachments of lancers and gendarmerie mobile from ibe Fori _d'lvry in several vans with their beggage to the terminus nf the Havre Railway . On arriving at Havre these _anfortunate victims of the coup d ' etat will be embarked for the penal colony of Lambessa , in Algeria . _Notwithstanding the lateness of the hour several spectators gathered about tbe Place du Havre , bnt , in the presence of the strong affli ' ary force , tbey abstained from all demonstration . Lsu Wednesday some serious riots broke out at Douai
atnoaz the coal miners . Some of tbe most disorderly having been arrested there was an attempt made to raise the colliers of neighbouring pits . A strong body of gendarmes were called in and made some prisoners , who were rescued by tbe nob- A detachment of artillery was then brought oat , which silenced the rioters by its determined attitude . A circular of the minister of justice , addressed to all the procureurs-generau-, recommends them to exercise the strictest surveillance over the tales given in the feuilletons of journals and all the other literary works so published . The minister of police will perhaps consider this au interference with his department . Tlie _Opinions' of Turin announces that Marshal Mar . _mont , Duke of Ragusa , died at "Venice on the 2 nd inst . T _ _uj , after an illness of six days , the last marshal of Napoleon has expired in exile , at the age of seventy-eight .
A decree in the 'Moniteur' declares it to be indispensable for every public functionary to fake an oath of allegiance , in accordance with Art . 14 of the constitution ' , and orders that in case such oath is refused , or its terms modified in any way . the person so acting shall be considered as having given in his resignation . Special decrees shall determine the mode in which the ministers , members of the great bodies of the State , officers in the army and navy , magistrates and functionaries , shall take tbe oath in question . The following is the text of the oath reqaired by Ar t . 14 : 'I swear obedience to the constitution and fidelity to the President . * It is remarkable that the constitution provides no oath to be taken by the President himself . It is fair to suppose that bis conscience must have been sorely tormented by the oath that he swore to tbat constitution wbich be destroyed on December 2 , since he shrinks rom hampering himself in tike manner again .
A special train arrived at Havre on Monday , from Paris , nth 477 prisoners condemned to transportation . They were escorted by a detachment of sixty of the gendarmerie mobile , and were immediately taken to tbe Florida basin , and embarked on board tbe Cfaristophe Colombe wbich coon _afterwards left the dock . Among the number sent on board are M . Salva , ex-chef de bataillon of tbe National Guard of Sotteville , a painter named Aymard , M . _Leballeur-Villiers , of Rouen , and M . Pornin , who was the organiser of the Montegnardguarde .
GERMANY . AUSTRIA . —Lord Derby ' s speech in the House of Lords , npon the refugee question has been received , as it might have been expected , with extraordinary satisfaction in Austria , and the Vienna papers are very eloquent upon the subject . The 'Austrian Correspondence , ' the mouthpiece of _Ae ministry , complains of tbe pitiless manner in which Prince Sehwarzenberg _' s despatch to Lord Granville has been handled by the English papers , and congratulates itself on the favourable contrast in the language held by Lord Derby the
on same subject . The rumoura of the possible change m the corn laws of England have been received with tbe utmost consternation in such of the corn growing districts as are still in a position to export . Upwards of 300 ships in the Black Sea , and a still greater number at _Gtnat & xrt _... nople , are lying idle ; and in Constantinople extreme _aa-eiy was manifested ( at the last advices ) on all hands « r the first whisper of the projected changes in England , bo merchant venturing to freight a vessel until something _posttive was known . This was felt more ( says a letter from _Tritsit ) on account of the favourable state of tbe weather , -2 d ibe probabiliiy of quick passages .
PRUSSIA . —The German journals unanimously approve _fte measures by whicb coin is to be imported free of duty into the states of the Zollverein till next harvest . The ' Kolner Zeitung' expresses a hope that the time ib not far distant when the commerce in the necessaries of life -will no longer be subject to those perturbations which the sudden changes of the Legislature so frequently occasion in business . Tbe Government of Electoral Hesse still holds back ft ordinance has just been published by which every b _& er , who either doe 3 not bake the due allowance of hrtad necessary for the day , or who refuses to sell it at _k given price , is to be subject to a fine , and , in _aggraded c _ S € S , to the deprivation of his licence . —Moniteur . - _fcreh 8 .

Neapolitan government to remonstrate with the Prince President against the confiscation ef the Orleans property . The Neapolitan government , _however , as well as the court , are per / ec _' _-ly pPS ? led to fcnow hGW far they can countenance the champion of ' order '—how far they dare remonstrate , or how far it would be prudent to keep silence .
SWITZERLAND . The Postampt Gazette * of Frankfort publishes the text of the note respecting French refugees presented by tbe French Ambassador to the Swiss government . The Ambassador says : —* I desire a formal promise that every expulsion of refugees that I may solicit shall be granted , without inquiring to what category belongfthe French political refugees affected by this measure ; aud , moreover , lhat the orders of the central power shall he executed on the terms prescribed beforehand , without mitigation by the authorities oi the cantons . The Ambassador of France is alone in a position to know the individuals whose former or present relations render impossible the prolongation of their residence on the territory of the Helvetic confederation , as well as those to whom toleration may be shown , if their conduct
should render them worthy of it . Tbe first must leave as soon as tbey are designated , and the others must be told that they can only be permitted to remain in Switzerland on condition of their giving no cause for complaint . The President ofthe Republic expects from the federal government , in consideration ofthe relations which he wishes to keep up with it , and which a refusal to satisfy would gravely compromise ' _, that it will give him this proof of friendship and good neighbourhood , which bave been so long traditional in Switzerland . A different line of conduct would produce sad complications , and impose upon the government of the Republic the duty of devising measures , which , it is true , it would apply very unwillingly , hut whicb it would be _forced to adopt , if the demand which I bave the honour to address to vour Excellency should fail in its object . '
The French ' _Assembled Nationale' contains an important article upon the Swiss question . It appears from this , tbat the Cabinet of Vienna distinctly notified to the federal council the intention to occupy the canton of Ticino with _Austrian troop ? , unless the demands for tbe expulsion oi certain refugees were complied witb , and guarantees given for preventing their return , as well as the renewal of conspiracies against the peace of Lombardy . Prince Schwarzenberg sent instructions to M . Hubner , the Austrian Ambassador at Paris , to propose to the French government a simultaneous action in the same views , and the occupation of Geneva and the canton of Vaud by tbe French troops . The government of Louis Napoleon declined to co-operate with Austria in invading the Swiss territory , and Austria was also persuaded to desist hom ibis enterprise . No doubt tbe firm attitude of the cabinets of London and Berlin , backed
perhaps by the counsels of Russia , procured this result . But no sooner was the project of the joint violation of the neutral territory brffl . d than a new scheme was adopted by the two conspiring powers , which threatens to be equally ruinous to Switzerland . The French and Austrian governments bave entered into a convention for the commercial blockade of that country . Now in order that tbis iniquitous measure may be effectual it will be necessary to force Piedmont to join the league , and stop her frontier , extending from Geneva to the Lago Maggiore , against Swiss commerce . There are twopowerfuV obstacles in the way of this result , public opinion in Italy , which is represented by the Liberal government of Sardinia , and the influence of Great Britain
at Turin . Upon these moral and political supports alone rests the Cabinet of MM . d'Azeglio and Cavour , in Piedmont , the fall of which would be the signal for the subjugation not only of Switzerland , but of Piedmont and the whole Italian peninsula , to the tyrannous league of France and Austria . Now , therefore , is the hour for the Tory ministers to show themselves genuine Britons , and to protect our commerce abroad as well as at home . This statement , as far as we can learn , bas met with only one contradiction . The ' Debats , 'referring to the statement in the _'Assemblea Nationale , ' says tbat it is either "inexact or premature . ' Our readers can easily form their own conclusion on this matter , after such a denial as that !
The government of America bas resolved to accredit , for the first time , a permanent charge _d'Affaires to the Swiss confederation . In Switzerland tbis act of a powerful government of decided non-intervention principles gives the liveliest satisfaction . The federal council has resolved to send to America a piece of granite from the valley of Hablern , near Interlacken , to form a part of the intended monument to Washington . The' Independence' of Berne announces tbat the difficulties between the French government and tbe Swiss confederation have been arranged' for the present . '
HUNGARY . The scanty news we bave from Hungary says tbat the government is making all possible efforts to establish the new organisation ; but tbe work goes on very slowly , partly from a dogged passive resistance among the people themselves , and partly from quarrels between the men in authority . The 'Nugent' Regiment of Infantry , which has just returned from Holstein , is to be quartered at Presbutg . Famine and bad government , poverty and military occupation of the country , are making things in Hungary almost as bad as they can be . It must be remembered lhat an Austrian regiment and an English one are two very different things . An Austrian regiment is a little army of some 4 , 000 men . The natural inference is , that the state of affairs in Hungary has grown far worse of late as to require a reinforcement of 4 . 000 men to the large army which overspreads the land like a plague of locusts .
TURKEY . A telegraphic despatch in the ' Staats Anzeiger , ' dated Agram , Match 1 st , states that a great conspiracy had heen discovered among the Rajahs of Bosnia , in consequence of which a general disarming had been ordered . Strong detachments of troops had appeared in Bilbacz , Novi , and Czasln , tbe communal authorities bad been summoned to supply the active portion of the army witb provisions . The border roads nearest Austria were strongly guarded by Turkish soldiers .
SPAIN . We have received the Madrid journals of the - tb . The Government continues its system of annoyance towards the journals . On the 3 d no less than six were seized , namely , the ' Constitutional , ' ' Clamor Publico , ' ' _Novedades _, ' ' Observador , ' Opinion Publica , ' aud ' Heraldo . '
UNITED STATES . Our advices from America state that an influential meeting of merchants , judges , & c , had been held to consider the subject of the proposed Exhibition of Industry . At this meeting it was definitively determined to ratify all that had been done aa preliminary . by Mr . Riddle , the American Commissioner to _Lottdon , to open subscriptions at once , and proceed to erect a Crystal Palace in Reservoir-square , to invite all nations to participate in the exposition , to distribute the labours and responsibilities of the enterprise for the more effectual execution of the general plan , & c .
The New York correspondent of the ' Times says' The Kossuth correspondence between Commodore Morgan , Captain Long ( of the steam-frigate Mississippi ) , Consul Hodges , and Mr . Webster has appeared in all the pipers , and forms Ibe principal subject of conversation . This correspondence was called for by the Senate , and laid before that body . Poor Kossuth ' s affairs are every day getting worse . His egotism , vanity , and _wilfulness have involved bim in inextricable difficulties . Day alter day new revelations are coming out against him at home and abroad . His influence in the United States , whicb two
months ago seemed all but omnipotent , and which , if applied to a good and practical end , might have secured permanent advantage to his own country , has all been frittered away . Men who readily subscribed their money and listened to him with rapture and tears on bis arrival at New . York , are now heartily ashamed of themselves , and would be glad to withdraw their subscriptions . The loan goes on very slowly , and by-and-by we shall hear no more about it . The doctrine of intervention to put down intervention is laid quietly by for another day ; the Kossuth fever has been followed by a chill in tbe body politic , and the patient is likely to recover—with a better regulated purse .
• Every true friend of Hungary and of Kosguth deeply regrets that while he held the heart of tbe American people in his band be did not ask some practical aid from Congress lhat would have benefitted his countrymen . If he had ever intimated his desire to that effect , Congress—probably without a dissenting vote—would have set apart a territory of fertile soil 100 or 200 miles square , to found a Hungarian colony on one of our great weitern rivers , accessible to navigation . Those hundred penniless exiles who followed Kossuth to the United States would have ceaied to be beggars and become independent men . Immense _Bumi of money would bave poured in from all quarters to enable the exiles to establish themselves in their colony , and before' V twelvemonth had gone by . they would have been one of | hf most independent communit . _iea on earth . There would h'ivf'
been no lack of m _eauB to bring thou « ud 8 ot their brother » and friends left behind them . Anuria could doubtless have been persuaded to favour the emigration of all those who were disposed to go , if our government had sent a proper nego _* i tiator in a spirit of true respect aud conciliation . Ten ye « r » would not bave gone by before Kossuth would bave been ' _- ' in the Senate at Washington , tbe representative of one of our most flourishing States . . Instead of tbis he has turned out a mere agitator . He prepared for his arrival in the New World just like Jenny Lind , and Catherine _Hajres , and other _artiBtic celebrities , by first making a noise in England . Then be make * , his debut in New Yoik . And after . ; - ward ' s begins his grand tour through tbe Union , for all titer world like Lola Montez . "with this exception , that thir _Coontessof _Landsfelt has shown ftr more tact and good , sense in the management of ber aBam .
Cape Of Good Hope
CAPE OF GOOD HOPE
THB KAFFIR WAR . Advices from the Cape state that upwards of 6 . 000 head of cattle bad been captured by _Major-General Somerset up to the 23 rd ult ., and 7 , 000 were in possession of Colonel Eyre to the 21 st ult ., exclusive of vast numbers , estimated at seven hundred drowned at the confluence of tbe _Isomo , and Major General Somerset , and Colonel Eyre were in direct communication on the 22 nd ult ., and were about to descend tbe lower Basbee , to which large herds of cattle had been driven , while _Jaku , it was expected , would make a forward movement . Tbe Fingoes had rallied round the _Briti-h troops . The continued rains had been much against the troops , who were , however , in high spirits and health .
Confidence amongst the _eolonistB , the general tone of feeling at Cape Town , and throughout the colony , bad considerably improved , and the reduction of the rebel forces was confidently spoken of and anticipated . The arrival of the reinforcement of troops bad greatly tended to increase the growing confidence of the colonists in the power of the government , and it was rumoured that Sandila , tired of the hostile position he has hitherto maintained , was about to abandon ft .
PERSIA . ; . A letter from Teheran , of Feb . 21 , in the 'National Gazette' of Berlin , _staleB that the cause of the disgrace of Mtrza Taghe Khan , the late Vizir , was his having ventured to point out to the Shan the profligate conduct of hi 3 Majesty ' s mother ,, The Shah manifested the greatest In . dignation at the recital ol the Vizir , and immediately dismissed him from his high post . The Vizir was afterwards in danger of his life , but his wife , who is the Shah ' s sister , succeeded in receiving a positive assurance that h is life should be spared . Tne Russian ambassador also interfered , and received an assurance from the Shah to the same effect . Subsequently , however , the Shah , when on a hunting parly , allowed himself to be worked on by his mother , and gave orders for the Vizir ' s death . The executioners , when they arrived , found him in a bath , and experienced from him a desperate , but unavailing , resistance .
GREECE . EXPULSION 0 » PflllSH _RETVGSES . The ' Courrier d'Athenes' _Btates tbat on the night of the 12 th or the 13 th of February the gendarmes , assisted by numerous agents of police , surround-d with extraordinary noise and ostentation the house inhabited hy the few Polish refugees , who still live at Athens , and of Messrs . Negria and Bouyoncli , Greek citizens ,, who live on terms of friendship with them . At the point of day officers af the 'public ministry , ' accompanied by a great ' number of gendarmes and police agents burst into the domiciles of tliose persons and h arrested them
aving , proceeded to a minute examination of their papers , all of which were seized . These Poles having established a riding-school , frequented by ladies of distinction andyoung men ofthe first families , tlm establishment also was not spared , and it was almost destroyed under pretext of searching it for arms . The motive assigned for these severe measures is a plot which the Poles are alleged ' lo have formed against the state . The true motive , in the opinion of everybody , is the wish to conciliate in certain quaiters , where it is desired that these unhappy outcasts should wander over the whole earth , without being able to find an asylum ?
The expulsion of the Polish refugees has led to interpellations in the Chamber of Deputies at Athens . M . Chrisanthoponlos , the deputy of -Eginum , after calling to mind the general sympathy which the cause of Greek liberty had encountered in every part of Europe during the struggle with the Turks , invited the Minister to declare the reasona which had induced the government to act so arbitrarily and harshly as to expel the Polish guests of the nation . M . _Paikos , Minister for Foreign Affairs , promised that he would he ready to make a statement on the subject at the next sitting of tbe chamber . In answer to an observation by M . Tzano 8 , M . Provelegio , Minister of Jastic , declared that the expulsions referred lo had not taken p ace on the demand of any foreign power . The government was hound to _remo-se the refugees , because tbey had abused the hospitality whieh had been extended to them , by conspiring for the ruin of the state . When the chamber should have " before it the
documents which he had ordered to be translated and laid before it , members would find that the government had acted not only fairly but with indulgence towards the expelled Poles . The ministerial organ states that his Hellenic Majesty , imitating greater monarchs , has replied to the notification of Louis Napoleon ' s election to the presidency for ten years congratulating the Prince President upon the 'happy result .

In Consequence Of The Present Abundance ...
In consequence of the present abundance of money in the Piedmontese markets , the King has , on the proposition of the Minister of Finance , reduced the interests upon exchequer bills to four and a half per cent ,, if duo within six months , and to five and a half per cent , if the bills are for a longer period . A shock of earthquake was felt at Palermo on the 16 th ult . The motion was undulatory from north to south , and lasted three seconds . Thb _UsiiEn _St-tss and Austria . —According to a letter from Vienna , in a Berlin journal , tbe dissension whicb arose
between Austria and the United States respecting the reception given to Kossuth may be considered to be arranged . . The passage of the Vistula , at Marienburg , has been interrupted by the floating ice , and , unless frost sets in may remain impracticable for several days . The water was very high , and still rising at a rate to cause great fears of an inundation , which would be a fearful disaster for a vast extent of adjacent lowland country . The continental papers speak of dearth and consequent distress as prevailing more or less from Holland to Russia .
In the Belgian Chamber on the 5 th , the Deputy Pierre , who had jast arrived from Luxembourg , stated that pauperism and desolation had there attained to a degree unknown , even in Flanders at the worst epoohs . The total loss of the potato crops , the high pric _. oi grain , and want of employment ) were concurring to produce this desperate state of things . M . Rogier , the Minister of the Interior , said that he had sent thither a superior employe of the administration to collect facts . Already ho could Bee that the budget of public works would not suffice to give employment to the working classes . He should probably ask a supplementary credit for this purpose The Duchess of Nassau haB appealed to her countrywomen for subscriptions in relief of the suffering . Kossuth is still in the West , and is said to be in the receipt of at least one thousand dollars daily towards the Hungarian funds . Kinkel is about returning to Europe , withaome thousands of _dollaw , obtained by subscription .
The Purist Of The Commons. Mr. Roebuck H...
THE PURIST OF THE COMMONS . Mr . Roebuck has at last " caught a Tartar . " In the debate on the St . Alban ' s Disfranchisement Bill , Mr . Roebuck , it will be remembered , emphatically disclaimed the Coppock connexion . In defence of himself from an insinuation by Lord Claude Hamilton , he is reported to have said , that he had nothing to do with Mr . Coppock in any of his elections ; that Mr . Coppock would not have dared to come where he was a candidate pretending to be on his side ; tbat his constituents had always absolved him from his election expenses ; and that he rarely or never goes to the Reform Club . Mr . Coppock has published a letter to prove that each of these assertions is " false . " Mr . Roebuck has been at the Reform Club at least a hundred times within the last twelve , months . In 1841 he sought communication with Mr . Coppock to set returned at the
then coming election . He wrote many letters , somo marked "private , " others not so : two of those not marked " private , " but at much length showing Mr . Roebuck ' s position , and the tactics he had to pursue at Bath to get re-elected , are published by Mr . Coppock . In those letters ho asked for a Government candidate to join him ; and he invited Mr . Coppock to assist him personally — " If y _ u 6 oi .. _ come down yourself ( t ' neor ; . mind ) much good might be done . " In consequence of those letters , Lord Duncan was sent down to Bath by Mr . Coppock , as a Whig candidate , to secure Mr . Roebuck ' s return by a coalition of the Radicals and Whigs . Mr . Roebuck continued his visits to
Mr . Coppock , at his house in Cleveland-row ; and on the 19 th of June , 1811 , Mr . Coppock " supplied Mr . Roebuck , from a private subscription-fund , with the means to pay his election expenses , the inability on his part to meet them having been previously stated by him . " On the 29 th of June Mr . Roebuck was returned for Bath in conjunction with Lord Duncan . Mr . Roebuck has , of course , replied to this publication . He says , with amusing naivete , he had really forgotten tbe transaction ! and the proceeds to defend it . It was with Mr . Coppock only as the agent of the Government (!) that he corresponded ; there was nothing to be ashamed of * , and the money forwarded to Mi * . Coppock was subscribed b y friends of both candidate * ., and for their joint expeoB 03 _»

The Frbkch Consolatb" _m _^ mse-. —M . _J Laurent , a principal clerk in the London _' Fr'fnoh Consulate General , has arrived in Jersey , and commenced his official duties as vice-consul for France in the Channel Islands . Mr . Simon , who _haa been vice-consul for France in Jersey for twentyfive yearn , bas been _u-perseded . ' The reason given by tbe French _government'fbr ' _superBeding Mr . Simon is as _foll-i-fS , viz .: " The 'imperative requirements of the service , and the need which ' _was felt of having in the Norman isles an agent who was a Frehebman , and who as _suoh could thus perform those civil and notarial acts for his countrymen which tbey had for a long time desiderated . '' M . Turgot , the French Minister of Foreign Affairs , in dismissing Mr . Simon from his post , finds no fault with that gentleman ; on the contrary , he praises him highly . The conduct of tbe Frenoh government in this mattej _^ has caused the utmost surprise and displeasure in Jersey .

Military Despotism Cj* The Continent. On...
MILITARY DESPOTISM _CJ * THE _CONTINENT . On Monday evening a meeting of tho inhabitants of L . mbeth . convened by the Society of the " Friends of Italy . " took place at the British School Room , George-street , " To consider the threatening aspect of foreign powers , and the position and duty of England in the present state of the continent . " . , „ , . __ _ Mr F Dototow was unanimously called on to preside . Mr . D . Masson moved- " That this meeting views with deep concern the triumph of despotic and lawless power abroad as confirmed by the suppression of French liberty by Louis Napoleon . Thafc these advances of dospotism abroad aro fraught with danger to the liberties and the interests of Great Britain ; that , therefore , on grounds as
well of self-defence , as of just regard for other peoples , it is incumbent on this country to havo and to maintain a decided course of foreign policy ; and that no set of men are fit to conduct the government of this country at the present time who have not , among other things , a bold and liberal apprehension of England ' s place and duty in Europe . " Ho observed thafc there prevailed over the continent a system of despotic and even of lawless rule , or misrule . Both were bad things , nnd the former gene rally was converted into tho latter . Somo thought despotic rule ' , where it was mild and according to law , better than a wrangling parliament ; both those porsons should remember that unless speech and the press wore free , there would be no real national progress in accordance with the ideas _ f ___ neo _ le . . _Chear _* . ) If a despot , of the best intentions
and the largest brain in the world , arrested free speech , ho destroyed the nation ' s progress . This kind of government now prevailed all over the continent . In Russia , every one knew there was nothing like free speech ; the people were in that condition from which we escaped centuries _.- > go ; they had not yet learnt to demand the right of free speech . Still there wore numbers of the intelligent class who laboured under the same disability , and held their lives a nd property at tho mercy of tho Czar . Going further south , we found that great nation the Germans , who gave us tho printing press —( cheers)—when , if ever , despotio rule ought to have been hung up in a museum—we found them too groaning under despotism . In Austria , a mere sprinkling of Germans were spread through a variety of other great nations ; and there was , in fact , nothing Austrian but the
Austrian despotism—a mere diplomatic fiction , ( _llear , hear . ) Destroy that government and thero would ho nothing left of Austria . ( Cheers . ) Recently this despotism had trampled out the liberties of a great and free nation , which would have been a worthy brother to England in the European family . ( Cheers . ) In Italy , whose people were the most in tellectualraceof Europe , a body of military , aided by Papal domination , held in thraldom the whole nation . ( llear , hear . ) It had been said in reference to Italy , that a nation deserved not to be free unless they desired it . What stronger proof of their desire for liberty could have been afforded than was given by the . inhabitants of Rome when they barrioaded their city , and defended ifc for a month against the treacherous French—the picked soldiers of Europe ? ( Cheers . ) Looking to the present
state of France , and tho recent elections , ho would ask what was tho value of universal suffrage without free speech ? It was a mere name , and nothing moro . ( Cheers . ) Louis Napoleon was a thorough despot ; and what was more , he was not one of the clever despots who had gained the applause of some ; but , judging from his writings , he was one of the most stupid men that ever tried to be clever . ( Cheers and laughter . ) Not only had he resorted to despotic rule , but to misrule , imprisoning and banishing thousands of patriots , and causing his army to sweep away thousands more here . ( Hear , hear . ) In process of time the despotism of the continent would swallow up those little states where freedom yet existed ; and then England would stand alone . Did any one ask , what had we to do With Such a State Ol things a 8 that ? Non-interference
was very well as a principle ; but it had its limits . There was certain things which ought not to be permitted by other nations to be done in any part of the earth . ( Hear , hear . ) Suppose the Turkish government should go about to murder all the Christians in that country ; would any one say that was not a fit subject for interference ? ( Cheers . ) He maintained that things had been done in Austria and other countries which equally demanded interference . ( OhJ ) Already the despotism of the continent had come home to this country , * witness tbeinsolence of diplomatic _intorcotn-so on the part of some powers;—an insolence which would never have been stood by Pitt , even ; though he was on tho wrong side . ( Hear , hear . ) It was in the nature of things that the despotic powers of the continent ; would not stop till they had brought us under the same clutches ; above all things they would seek to put down liberty in its home and cradle—free England . Defence of our liberties , —of our commerce , which < vould be asssiled on every soa in Europe ,
—of our countrymen travelling abroad—alike demanded that we should do something to meet and check this despotism . But how ? Tlie whig foreign policy had not been suoh as to give any guarantee of their _entering sincerely on such a work , ( flear , hear , ) And what would our new ministry do * ( Laughter . ) Lord Derby , in his speech on the 27 th ult ., was evidently truckling to the despotic powers ; he talked of the duty of informing foreign governments of any plots that might be discovered against them . ( Hear , hear . ) How were these plots to be discovered ? By letter opening , or by dogging refugees with thc police ? Was thafc an English proceeding . ( Hear , hear . ) The great means for checking despotism was a large and liberal measure of parliamentary reform . Whatever government would deal rightly with respect to the cobtinenfc ought to put this country in a state of self-defence , by the organisation ofa citizen-force , independently of the standing army .
Mr . J . Stanfieid seconded the resolution , which was put and carried . Mr . Skaek moved "That the Society of the ' . Friends of Italy , already existing , affords an excellent means for testifying these sentiments legally and constitutionally , and especially for expressing sympathy with the oppressed people of Italy , and that the present meeting is prepared to support this society in its operations and aims . " Ho contended thafc ifc was the bounden duty of the people of this country to mako themselves acquainted with foreign affairs , in order to express such an intelligent opinion as must have weight with the government . By supporting the Society of the Friends of Italy they were , in face , aiding the progress of liberal principles all over the continent , for the interests of all nations were admittedly bound up together ; and the friends of Italian freedom were , of necessity , as much tbe friends of Hungarian , German and _French freedom . ( Bear , hear . ) Mr . T Webber seconded the resolution . A vote of thanks to the chairman closed the proceedings .
Marylebone Vestry. On Saturday, At The O...
MARYLEBONE VESTRY . On Saturday , at the ordinary weekly meeting of the Marylebone Vestry , it was resolved that the ensuing election for guardians be by open voting . After whioh Mr . M'Evily moved— . " That a committeo be appointed to watch the progress of the Militia Bill , and to adopt , in conjunction with the other metropolitan parishes , such constitutional means to prevent it passing into a law as thoy may think most fit , and report to the vestry . " Aftor much dis-CUS 8 ion theresolution was adopted by a large mnjority . A memorial was then read from the Marylebone Ratepayers' Protection Associa ! ion , calling on the vestry to take some steps for the abolition of the coal duties and other imposts charged upon the people of the metropolis by the corporation of the city of London . It urged the injustice ofthe privileges
granted to the city of London , which gives them the power of imposing on the inhabitants of the metropolitan district a duty of Is . Id . per ton in coals , for tho embelishments and widening of the streets of the city , and also the power of levying a toll of 2 d . on every tradesman ' s cart , either on entering or leaving , with a load however small . While the City of London had only a rental of £ 800 , 000 , the parish of Marylebone had a rental of upwards of a million , and oontained 17 , 000 houses—more by 1 , 000 than the City of London , and Marylebono had 800 more public lights than tho City . Thero are in Marylebone 17 , 000 houses , reckoning eight rooms to a house , and consuming eight tons each per year , which gives a tax of £ 7 , 366 ; to which add £ 3 , 000 for gas , will make £ 10 , 366 total tax on this parish ,
for which the inhabitants receive no benefit . —Mr . Hodges said he bad intended to have moved a resolution on this subject , but as Sir Peter Laurie had left the vestry , he would defer the subject till the next meeting . —Mr . Ificholay gave notice that next Saturday he would move " To take into consideration the present position of the government , as regards the welfare of the country , and to protest , petition , or take such other measures as may bo _Jhought necessary iu the present crisis , to pvevent the possibility C ? an . * ' return to Protection , or the imposition of a . tax on the toC- Of the people , Mly believing that such attempt would not only prc . e an utter failure , but be fraught with danger to the peace , stability , and well-being of thc country . " The vestry then broke up .

Felkin _, the Mayor . Tho Rev . Mr . Stevenson , Baptist minis'er of Nottingham , moved , "That this meeting recognises a great deficiency in the existing supply of the means of popular instruction , and records its conviction that that need will be best met by a general system supported by local rates , and under local man-igement , and that shall provide secular instruction only . " Mr . Alderman Ileymann seconded , and Dr . Watts supported , the resolution in a lengthened speech , in which he thoroughly elucidatod the scheme of the National Association , as promulgated at Manchester . It was then put and carried » em , eon . The Rev . J . A . Baynes moved , and Mr . Councillor Eyre seconded ' That for the

"—A working man in the garb of a " navvy , " whose name was given as George Woodward , expressed his approval of a compulsory educational scheme , but remarked that something was radically wrong in the present intern , or the people would be able to educate their own children .

Royal Hotel , Liverpool , to oppose the present ministerial policy , in conjunction with the Manohcster Anfci-Corn-Law League . —Mr . " A . II . Wylie was voted to the chair , and the followresolution was moved by Dr . Blackburn , seconded by Mr . Jeffrey , _linendrnper , and unanimously carried : — " That believing the present ministry to be pledged to a reactionary policy with regard to Free Trade , not only by their past opposition to every enactment having this object , but also by very recent declarations thereupon , we fully coincide in the propriety . oi that step by which the _Anti-Corn-L . w League has been reconstructed . "—Mr . James Hnrvoy said he had attended the meeting of the League when Mr . Cobd . n contended that thn question of Protection should ho ,-in isolated one . From tlii < he dissented , * he considered that the question of Free Trade was bound up with the question of pi-ices , by which that trade was regulated . Mr . Harvey was proceeding with his argument , when the
_Ciiarrman reminded him that the meeting was one to consider the hesf . c _. \ _irsc to bo adopted for preveniing a re-imposition of the Corn _Liws , and they could not entertain the topics which Mr . Harvey sought to introduce . —Mr . Broadribb -said he for one was quite ready to fi <* ht . for Free Trade in food ; but l .-t them understand what they were contending for . Let all articles of food be included in it ; ifc was not corn alone , bufc cheese , butter , and hams thafc were taxed . They had a . tax of twenty-six millions and a half on drink , and twenty-five millions and a half on tea , and though the meeting were not disposed to entertain the question of prices , ho would _t-. \ ke leave to say —( The chairman stopped the speaker on "he same ground as he had Mr .

_MANCHESTER CHAMBER OF COMMERCE . A special meeting ofthis association WHS held on Tuesday in the Manchester Town-hall , to consider the propriety of petitioning the Legislature in favour of the retention of our existing commercial policy . Tito chair was take , by _Thos . Ba ' zley , E . q „ the president of the chamber . Mr . Henry Ashworfcb , of Turton , near Bolton , moved the f ollowing re * solution : — " That , remembering tho repeated _miinifestations of hostility mado by tho noblemen and gentlemen who now compost * . the Executive of her Majesty ' s government to the commercial policy happily adopted by the Legislature of this country , and especially to that most important of all questions—the abolition of duty on tbo import of corn and food consumed by the mass of our people , this chamber
reiterates m unbounded confidence in the true patriotism and justice of that policy , and resolves that a petition be forthwith transmitted to both nouses of Parliament , praying that each may respectively take such measures as may remove all uncertainty , and assure the country tbat the undeniable progress hitherto made under that policy shall not be arrested by any return in any degree to class legislation . "—Mr . Owen seconded the motion , and it was agreed to unanimously . —Mr . W . Romaine _Calender moved the following petition to the Legislature : — ' That this chamber has witnessed , under feeling , of unmixed satisfaction , the 3 peedy and constantly progressive march towards contentment and happiness which the industrial classes of this country have made under that most wise system of free commercial policy which was foreshadowed by Mr .
_Huskisson in 1824 , and received development under the ministries of which the late Sir Robert Peel and Lord John Russell were respectively the chiefs . That , in the opinion of this chamber , so well aro tho benefits which have already accrued to this country understood , nnd so hopeful the progress which each succeeding year manifests , that any retrocession from that policy , and especially the re-imposition of any duty on corn or other food consumed by the great mass of tho people , will evoke consequences that every true patriot would deplcri _\ That not only would the fact of such retrocession be most calamitous , but the anticipation of such a possibility is in itself , detrimental to every interest in the state . Uncertainty paralyses the operations of commerce and shipping , endangers industry , in every branch , and retards thc progress of agriculture both at home and in the colonies ; and ai _, from recent changes in the government of this countvy , and dreaded uncertainty exists and is increasing , yonr petitioners , disavowing , as this chamber has always disavow _.-d , all intention of interfering
in party politics humbly , but earnestly , pray thafc your honourable house may instantly take such measures as may assure the country that no retrocession shall tako placo in the commercial policy now existing , which , founded on the i immutable principle of justice , is diffusing happiness by ¦ spreading employment on every side , -and elevating thei moral character of the people by diminishing poverty andl crime . "—Mr . Penson seconded the resolution , and objected ! to so much as a shilling duty on corn . —Mr . W . Evan ' s supported the resolution , and appealed to the decrease of Poor . Rates in Manchester , as showing the undoubted benefit thea peoplo had derived from cheep food , The rates had graduall y increased up to 1847 , when the amount was £ lz 2 , 000 ,,, whilst since then it had gradually decreased . In 1848 itt was £ 90 , 000 , in 1849 it was £ 70 , 000 , . in 1950 it . was £ 65 , 000 ,, and in 1851 it . was £ 60 , 000 . ( Applause . ) Tho mot _^ v _>¦ _: _,-,. carried unanimously . Mr .

Lord John is also said to have mad « dl an unsuccessful attempt to take the Free Trade motion oulmi of Mr . Villiers ' s hands .
