FRANCE . B&visiox to the Coksttiotiok—Several tSOuncils of fttrondinemeat , which did not allude to tfae revision of the constitution at their firit meet ' iogi , have lately held lecond sessions , and have expressed their w ' uhes in the affirmative . That of St . . Ettenne demands the revision at the earliest moment possible . That of Macon has demanded
the revision , and also that the general elections may precede the presidential election by * t least three months . The council of Arcis , the only one ia the department of the Aube which omitted to tote for revision on the former occasion , has now demanded it with especial reference to the dangers Of 1852 , and particularly with respect to Articles 45 and 111 . The eoonsfl of Jfa tU « W *» * £ nwded the revhion , and rejected a proposition in favour of the repeal of the law of JtojU . voted for revision during
Thatf Di cppTwhTch it 5 firs sittfnXh" «» « P ressed \™ ? " * " 3 * Siiod Sthf elections should be advanced . The £ « 5 l of arrondissement of Orleans has met for Ss Saa i part of its session . M . Oadet pro 05 ed that the council , approving of the decision come to bv the council-general , in favour of the revision of the cons titution , should declare itself in favour of the revision by legal means . This proposition was carried by seven rotes to three , one member having abstained . The following is the programme of M . Lamarijne , as published in bis journal , ' Le Pays' : —
• Our line of policy is as follows ; we feel the necessity of accepting it : —Acceptance of the partial revision of the Constitu-ion in the interest of the Republic ; re-eligibility of the President if the country derires it , and the revised Constitution sanctions it ; candidature of Louis Na poleon Bonaparte , 83 that of any other eitizen , freely left to ihe we of universal suffrage ; preliminary establishment of universal suffrage by the repeal of the law of May 31 ; no personal opposi tion to Louis Napoleon Bonaparte ; no direct or indirect support of his election by the propagation of Napoleonis t prejudices among the people j Bonaparte to be considered as a' citizen , neither more nor less . Such is our line . '
Restriction op Labour . —The council-general « f the department of the Nord have passed resolutions complaining of the ineffieacy of the existing regulations for enforcing the law limiting the hours of labour in manufactories . Previously to Sept . 1848 no legal restrictions existed , and the manufac turers , urged on by the pressure of ever increasing competition , often employed their work people is much as fifteen hours a day .
The Municipal Council of Lyons have petitioned fte gotttameut to apply the & « ater part of the four million of francs , voted on ihe 9 ih of August list for the railway from Chalons to Lyons , in executing the warks in the immediate neighbourhood Of Lyons . In support of this request they urge the necessity of providing employment for the num erous able-bodied men who may be expected to be thrown out of work this winter in consequence of the slackness now observable in the Lyons
manufactures . The Evenement' has come out under the name of the ' Avenement , * supported by "Victor Hugo , « rho takes the place of his condemned sons . The War Against the Press . —The government continues , in defiance of common sense , justice , and public opinion , its infatuated crusade igainst the press . The Procureur of the Republic lias had the ' Avenement du People * of Thursday evening seized at the post-office and at the office of that journal , and has ordered a prosecution to be Commenced against the responsible editor , for publishing a letter from M . V . Hugo , and an article Signed by Auguste Yacquerie , the editor in question .
The Avenement' is prosecuted under the charge ef making an attack on the respect due to the law , ia apology for acts designated crimes or misdemea-Soars by the penal code , and provocation to civil war . The ' Presse' of Friday has been also seized for publishing the letter above alluded to , and for adding an article signed E . de Girtrdin . The latter paper is prosecuted under the charge of making an » ttack on the respect due to the law , and an apology for acts designated crimes or misdemeanours by the penal code . The journals least hostile to the government are
BOW alarmed at the persecution of the press . The Pays , ' a paper which habitually strives to put a favourable construction upon the conduct of the ministers , feels called upon to acknowledge that for a long time past accusations of political libels Jjave been much too lig htly made . It dwells especially upon the bad taste of fixing upon M . Victor Hugo ' s letter as a subject for prosecution , written , as it was , under the influence of feelings natural to S father whose two sons had just been consigned to a gaol . As to M . de Girardin , his article is incriminated for a single word , and that word is neither an insult nor a provocation .
The 24 lb ol September is fired for the trial before toe Court of Assize of the managers of the' Presse ' and the ' Avenement du Peuple . ' The Presidency . —M . Sarrans , on behalf of ihe democratic pt ess of Paris , has sent a circular to all the democratic journals of the departments , requesting them to send delegates to meet in Paris and decide upon the mode of electing a conclave to choose the red candidate for the presidency of the Republic . The Prefect of the Allier has ordered the disarming of all the National Guard in that department .
The Assizs Court of the Deux-Sevres has sentenced M . Ginestel , the editor of the ' CGil du People , ' to six months' imprisonment and a fine of 2 , 000 francs , for an incorrect report of the sittings in which the case against the' A B CDemocratique * was tried . The responsible editor was sentenced to 100 francs fine . The « Suffrage UniverseP of Monlg ielier has been seized for prosecution . Several of tbe persons recently arrested in Paris , } n connexion with what is called tfae Paris conspiracy , have been set at liberty within the last few days . It is said that tfae number of prisoners compromised does not exceed sixty . The Revisionist movement continues in the Councils of arrondissement . About thirty of tbe Councils , which bad abstained in Ihe first part of their session from expressing any opinion , have pow passed resolutions in favour of revision .
The' Messager de l'Assemblei' ha 3 pronounced jn favour of tbe fusion . This would look as if there was some screw loose about General Changarnier , ^ nose candidate&hip for the Presidency of the Republic has probably met with an unpleasant check . By a decree in the * Moniteur , ' Colonel Couston , vho so lately presided over the court-martial at Lyons for the trial of Gent and others , is promoted to the grade of commander in the order of the L ? gion of Honour . The Prefect of the Allier has issued an order , directing all the National Guards of that department to deposit with the mayors of their communes their arms and accoutrements within a delay of five days . These arms are to be re-distributed when new list * ahall have been made out .
The conductors of the ' Presse * and the' Evenepient * have each been condemned lo 1 , 000 francs fine , and six montlis imprisonment . If the ' Presse' and ' Avenement' should be condemned to suspicion , bath papers are prepared to reappear , the former under the name of the Fresse de 1 S 5 J , ' and the latter under tbe new title of the 1 Revenant . ' Three fresh seizures of newspapers have been made in the provinces , at Montpeltfer , in the Averguoa and the Basses-Pyrenees . Police Tyrakny and Espionage . —M . Pascal
Daprat , the democratic representative of the Landes , has been paying a visit to the annual fete at Barfcaste , in the conterminous department of the Lotet-Garonne . He \ m invited to pass the day at tbe country-house of M . Dubroca , a wealthy proprietor , In whose spacious grounds a large concourse of friends , accompanied by some thousands of citizens , tad assembled to do honour to the eloquent memeer of the Mountain . M . Pascal Duprat was about to return thanks for his friendl y reception , when a pngadier of gendarmes came forward with two of
fcs men , and wanted to stop him from speaking . J 4 . Duprat reassured the alarmed officer , and was allowed to be ^ in . A complim entary allusion to the police present however occasioned a second interruption . Tne brigadier declined the civility as a bait to draw him from his duty , and rudel y de-Sanded the speaker ' s passport . M . Duprat said that the gendarme knew him , since he had addressed his by his name ; to which the latter replied by insisting , and threatening to take him into Custody in case of refusal . The representative
earned the menacing policeman of his inviolability , * d J * 'led on him to show the orders in virtue of which he j , " " ^ 8 ' * * kira . There was a decree of the prefect , the « enu . M !

* y or of Barbara being appealed to stated » b . fttbe was noUwsre of any orders of the prefect interceding the present assembly ; whereupon the bngadferttterted thmt * special decr « e had been issued applicable to tbe property of M . Dubrooa- The mayor answered that he wa , jesponsAle for the maintenance of order , and would invoke the intervention of tbe police on the first utterance of an unconstitutional cry . As there was no reply possible , M Dupra t was suffered to commence h » speech ; out presently the brig adier returned and redemanded his papers . Hereupon the orator stopped , unfolded his passport , and showed bis medal as represen tative of the people . No sooner had he resumed than his interpreter , who had momentarily disappeared in the crowd to receive the orders of a
secret agent' of police , came back , and using alternately menace and entreaty , said at last in a low tone , ' Stop you must , else I have orders to arrest you . ' Make this declaration in writing , ' said the orator , ' and I retire at once . ' The gendarme refused . A murmer of indignation rose from the crowd . Finally , apprehending that the excitement manifested at this gross interference of tbe authorities with a perfectly legal and harmless proceeding mig ht lead to some regrettable disturbance of the peace , the representative of the Landes exhorted his audience to offer no resistance , but to disperse quietly after giving a cheer for the Republic . Thus terminated this extraordinary scene , which exhibits in a striking light the degree of liberty enjoyed under the passing phase of the French Republic .
ITALY . The Papal States . —The French Court-Martial at Rome tried on tbe 26 tb ult . seven Italians , working men , or farm' labourers , for having assaulted a French sergeant , named Lachaume , at Yiterbo . On the 7 th of July the sergeant was standing before the guard-house , when nine Italians came up . One of them produced a large knife , and brandished it menacingly at the sergeant . The sergeant attempted to seize it , but the others pelted him with stones , and injured him rather severely . He called out the guard , and three of the men were arrested ; four others , being recognised , were subsequently taken ; the other two could net he discovered .
All tbe accused denied that they were on the spot at the time . Two of the band , named Delbello and Allegrini , were condemned to two years' imprisonment ; Comparini to one year ' s imprisonment ; and the other four , Stella , Mole , Boccucci , and Bercaelli , were acquitted . Tbe Court on the 28 th ult . tried five men for having been concerned in the throwing a stone at a French patrol , in the night of the 30 th of July , from the window of a public-house in the Borgho Vecchio . The five men were , arrested because they bad all slept in the same room , but be . fore tbe court it could only be proved that one of
them , named Funin' , had thrown the stome , and he was sentenced to sis months' imprisonment . The others were acquitted . A stonemason , named Gigli , was then sentenced to six months' imprisonment for having thrown stones at a French patrol on the evening of tbe 3 rd of August . The Court next tried a carter named Manoccbi for having illegally carried a cutlass , and drawn it against some soldiers of the 32 nd , with whom he had got into a dispute at a public bouse . He was sentenced to six months' imprisonment , seventy-five francs fine , and the costs .
Letters from Rome , of tbe 12 th mst ., state that the ex-Triumvir Calandrelli had been transferred to Ancona , and placed heavily ironed among the con . victs sentenced to hard labour for life . Dr . Ripari experienced a similar fate . The ' Risorgimento' of Turin quotes a letter from Aecona of the 11 th , staling that the curates of that province having addressed a petition to the Austrian commandant of Ancona , praying that the inhabitants might be permitted to have arms for felf defence against the numerous brigands that infest the country , and this petition having been accompanied by a letter from Cardinal Soglia , the commandant ' s answer was , that it was only out of consideration for the cardinal , whom he could not suspect of revolutionary intentions , that he would refrain from bringing the curates before a courtmartial .
NAPLES . —A letter from Naples of the 2 nd , in the ' Custituzionale' of Florence , states that the Supreme Court of Justice has overruled the objections started against the competency of the tribunal by the persons now under trial for the affair of the insurrection of the 15 ih of May , 1848 . Tbe objections were—1 st , the royal amneBty for all acts comraitted on tbe 15 th of May ; 2 ndly , the accused being deputies at the time , and therefore subject to the jurisdiction of the Court of Peers only ; 3 rdly , Signor Scialota being a minister at the time , and Signor Lsopardi on an embassy to tfae Court of Sardinia . Tbe public prosecutor had consented to the third objection , but tbe Court overruled them all by five votes to four .
Neapolitan Atrocities . —The Neapolitan government is defending its acts of cruelty towards political prisoners , in the form of a reply to Mr . Gladstone , an analysis of which appeared in the 'Times of Monday . The pamphlet expresses deep regret that the right hon . gentleman did not apply to the proper authorities for information . The 'Times' correspondent says : — ' I have no doubt that the government answer will be deemed triumphant at Naples , but public opinion here and with us is based on different grounds , and the names of the Earl of Aberdeen and Mr . Gladstone give a weig ht to the accusation , against which an array of facts or figures offered from here is not likely to prevail . '
The correspondent of the 'Daily News , ' writing on the same subject , says : — 'The president of tbe grand criminal court , Navara , who conducted the illegal trial of Poerio and bis companions , and is now playing the Judge Jeffreys with tbe victim of royal vengeance , has been rewarded by having his son appointed keeper of public records in the Abruzzi ; one of the most valuable gifts of the crown . The same gentleman is also made a cavalier . His Majesty thus rewards the violation of ihe courts of justice . '
After tbe publication of Mr , Gladstone ' s letters , seventeen compositors were thrown into prison , and some printing offices shut up , because it -was supposed Mr . Gladstone ' s revelations would be reprinted in Naples . And yet the government is preparing an answer to the very accusations which the public are not to read . On a late occasion the Minister of Police , Peccheneda , wrote to the sub-mayor of Melfi ( the scene of the late earthquake ) for information as to two gentlemen whose political opinions were supposed to be hostile to the government . These unhappy men had lost mother , wife , child—every relative , in the ruins of their dwellings ; and yet , with such an accumulation of misery around them , they were arrested on suspicion .
The government is now employed in confiscating the property of absent members of the Neapolitan parliament . This act , prohibited by the old Ian as well as the new , is performed without any trial or regard to families , whose ruin the government systematically contemplates . Since Mr . Gladstone ' s letters have appeared none but the near relatives of prisoners are allowed to visit either the accused or the condemned . On a late occasion an aunt took her niece to visit a prisoner confined in Santa Maria Apparcnte , The turnkey said tbe young girl could not pass , but that she might remain in his room . No sooner had the sunt moved on than this scoundrel made improper advances to the unprotected girl , who , by violent screaming , saved herself .
The governor of the bagno , at Ischia ( where Poerio is chained in a cave below the level of the sea ) lives publicly -with a mistress , and to this tvoman the mother , the wife , the child must apply when they visit the father and the husband . The woman , it appears , has so much influence over her innamorato that she actually threatens the prisoners with flogging . All this is known to tbe government —probably known to Prince Luigi , who , as grand admiral , has full control over the island prisons ; and yet we hear so much about reli gion and morality in high quarters .
LOMBARDY—The 'Milan Gazette' of the 15 th publishes a notification from Lieut . Marshal Schulzig , commandant of the fortress of Mantua , announcing thai Count Alexander Arrivabene , late lieutenant in the Austrian army , has been condemned hy court-martial to be hanged , for having written and spread an article entitled ' The Secret Agitators , * containing injurious expressions against the government , and , moreover , for having a stiletto and a tricoloured scarf in his possession ; but that the punishment has been commuted into that of two years' imprisonment , in consideration of the said Count Arrivabene having fought bravely on the Austrian side in the late war of Italy , although he knew that his father and brother were fighting on the other side .

teen introduced on 'Change . It is the opinion of the most respectable moneyed men in Vienna that the active interference of the police authorities in such matters is highly injurious to the credit of the country , preventing , aB it does , a free and natural digestion of the public funds , state paper , &c . ' The fact is , that people are terribl y hampered in their movements , it being notorious that no speculation , whether on the fall or the rise , can be undertaken without Us becoming known to the police authorities . ¦ A Civil and Military Governor ( not Palatine ) of Hungary has at length been appointed in the person of Albrecht , the eldest son of the late Archduke Charles . Baron Gehringer will probably be taken into the Reichsratb .
Archduke Albrecht has been appointed civil and military governor of unfortunate Hungary—an appointment of small promise for the inhabitants of that groaning kingdom . The character of the new governor is a guarantee that the iron rule under which Hungary suffers will be redoubled rather than relaxed . Archduke Albrecht is a revengeful , arrogant , tyrannical man ; whose disposition has caused him much unpleasantness , when coramander-inchief in Lower Austria . He it was who commanded
the troops from whose muskets the first shots were fired upon the people in tbe month of March . 1848 . Subsequently he was sent into Ital y to avoid the consequences of this act ; he remained there until tbe beginning of last year , when the army in Bohemia was placed under his command . Tfae nume * rous executions which have taken place in Prague between the end of 1849 and now are attributed to bis unmerciful disposition by the public . Tbe Hun . garians will not receive mercy nor gentleness at his hands .
Vibnna , Sep . 20 . —By the ordinary course of post , information ought to have arrived here of the embarkation of Kossuth and his companions from Kutahia ; but as no intimation of that event has reached here , it is believed that the government wilfully suppress it . Kossuth was to have left Constantinople on the 13 th inst . Sept . 21 . —Tbe public functionaries have commenced taking the oath according to the new form . In this formula tbe passage is omitted which refers to the constitution , and the functionaries only take the oath of allegiance to the king and to the states . A letter from the Emperor announces that every functionary who shall refuse to take tbe oath shall immediately resign office , '
Tbe military commandant of Lemberg , in Gahcia , a Prince Schwarzenberg , made known to bis officers the ordinances of the 20 th of August , with the following words!— ' Gentlemen , I have to announce to you that the faithful army of his Imperial Majesty has gained another victory . I hold in my hand the imperial decrees by which the constitution and every thing connected with it is abolished . In communicating this joyful intelligence to you I must request that you will not express your gratification in places of public resort , as such conduct might give rise to demonstrations against the government . '
The Minister of War bas issued a decree to the governors of the military colleges , prohibiting for tbe future the juvenile pupils in these establishments from spending their holidays at borne , in order to prevent their minds from being contaminated , and to keep them faithful to their Emperor and his government . The same decree makes known that the colleges are to be removed to the nei ghbourhood of small towns , where the danger of mental infection of a political kind is of course much smaller .
PRUSSIA . The offence of' abusing officials in the discharge of their duty' is on tbe increase ; ten charges are reported in the last number of the legal journal . The officials have become more sensitive or the public less guarded . In one case a man is sentenced to three weeks' imprisonment for accusing a natchman of' binding himself when he was wanted , ' which , considering that if you have no door kev
you are dependent on that functionary for admission , and half an hour on a door step on a rainy night is something of a provocation , seems severe . Another citizen is condemned to a month ' s confinement on a charge of telling a lieutenant 'not to make an ass of himself ; the said lieutenant having refused him passage through a barrack yard , by drawing his sword and pointing it at the defendant ' s breast , the officer being at the same time in the citizen ' s debt for ci
gars ! The man denied using the words , natural as they would appear , and two soldiers swore it was a brother officer who gave the friendly advice as be came up and put the sword aside . But the ' comrade' declared - it was contrary to military etiquette to interfere in such a caBe between a soldier and his wrath , and as somebody must have used the epithet , the citizen is imprisoned for it . If the non-interference principle is the rule , the Berlin military code is of a ' nice morality . ' The brother of the ex-President of Police of
1848 , Yon Minutoli , was murdered in that year in Meinengen . Three persons accused of tbe crime have just been sentenced in the Court of Appeal ; the one who fired the shot by which the deceased was killed is condemned to be beheaded by the axe ; end others , as accessories ; to imprisonment for life .
GERMANY . A telegraphic despatch , dated on the 18 tb , from Frankfort , and received on the same day in Paris , announces that the Senate of the city would pub ' lish on the following day a federal resolution abolishing tfae fundamental rights ( grund reehte , ) and would present to the legislative body a bill of great rigour against the press . FRANKFORT . —The following resolution on the liberty of the press was adopted on the 22 nd of August by the Germanic Diet : — 'The Asaembly charges the political commission appointed on the
10 th of July by the Conference of Dresden to propose to it as promptly as possible some general law , to prevent the abuse of the liberty of the press , and invites the Federal governments , even before the promulgation of the depositions , to employ every legal measure for the suppression of newspapers or periodicals which have an Atheist , Socialist , and Communist tendency , or which aim at the subversion of monarchy . The person guilty of this shall be duly punished . The assembly likewise invites the go . vernment to furnish themselves with every legal method for carrying this out .
HAMBURGH . The * Independence Beige' says : — « Our correspondent at Hamburgh mentions a very grave rumour , which has been some days in circulation in that city , and has caused great disquietude . It is to the effect that tbe Germanic Diet intends nothing less than to suppress the independence of the three free towns , Hamburgh , Bremen , and Lubeck , and to incorporate them in other German states . Hamburgh is to fall to Prussia . We mention this rumour with reserve . The fact itself would constitute a very grave affair , and all the powers which signed the treaties of Vienna would have to intervene . It cannot , therefore , yet be definitively settled , even if it be true that the project has been submitted to the Germanic Diet . '
SPAIN . A private letter , dated Madrid , Sept . 14 th , says : — ' The Spanish government has adopted a high tone towards that of the United States ; and as public feeling is decidedly in favour of such a line of conduct just now , it will render itself popular by bo doing . Moreover , it counts upon the support of tbe British and French governments : hence probably its pugnacity . ' Despatches are on " the point of being transmitted to the Spanish minister at Washington , directing him to protest in the strongest terms against the supinenessof the American government in having permitted a second marauding expedition to attack Cuba , and to demand satisfaction for the outrages the Spanish consul at New Orleans has been sub . jected to by the annexationists .
A reinforcement of 4 , 000 men has been just sent to Cuba . Madrid , Sept . 2 O . —The government is taking active measures to despatch considerable reinforcements to the Havennah . For this purpose guns and men hive already arrived at Cadiz . Great satisfaction Is expressed at tfae attitude taken b y France and England un the Cuba question .
UNITED STATES . Arrival of the Atlantic . —The steamshi p Atlantic arrived in the Mersey from New York on Wednesday morning . By this arrival we have later dates from Cubs , from which it appears that four of the prisoners had been liberated by the Captain-General , Concha , at the entreaty of Captain Platt , of the United States ship Albany . It is reported that the Captain-General stated he would have liberated the remainder , but for the riots at New Orleans . Among the items in the new York files we find the following : —

Upon nearing the house where the fugitives were , some negroes , armed with muskets , &c , rushed upon them and prevented them from entering A large crowd of whites and negroes soon assembled , and were commanded by the marshal to assist in the capture , but they refused ., Mr . Gorsuch and his friends being completely overcome , retired , when they were fired upon by the negroes , from the windows of houses , and were also attacked
by the crowd . Edward Gorsuch was Bhot in the breast , and fell dead . His son , Dickinson , was shot in the arm and shoulder , and died . Both the deceased were afterwards beaten with clubs . The other Mr . Gorsucb was also mortally wounded . Doctor Thomas Prince was shot and badly beatenr and it is feared be cannot survive . Messrs . Hutchinaon and Nelson escaped to Philadelphia . Two or three of the negroes were also shot . Such was the violence of the attack that none of the survivors coutd remain with the wounded , but escaped as they best could . The crowd of blacks and whites numbered about 200 , and none interfered to save the Hvesof our citizens . The gentlemen from Baltimore county are amongst our most respected citizens .

Passengers who witnessed the execution state that he ended bis life manfully . This mode of punishment is horrible . The victim is bound and an iron collar placed around his neck , which is gradually tightened by means of a screw , till tbe sufferer ceases to exist . Previous to the death of General Lopez , he declared that he had been greatly deceived in regard to promised aid in Cuba . We learn that Colonel Pragay , the gallant Hungarian , and the friend of Kossuth , had been shot at Pages .
A meeting of passengers was held on board the steamer Cherokee , at which General Lane , of Oregon , presided , and the following resolution was unanimously passed : — 1 Resolved , —That Mr . Owen , the American consul at Havanna , has forfeited every right and title to be regarded as an American citizen ; that he has outraged every sentiment of humanity , and deserves the execration of every friend of liberty . ' Another resolution requests his recall by the American government .
It seemB that Lopez was taken in the interior , wandering alone—nearly exhausted from fatigue and hunger . He asked for something to eat at a farm-house , and permission to lie down ; while asleep he was bound and made prisoner . Of his followers , 155 are now imprisoned , and are to be sent to Spain for ten years' imprisonment . These men say their sufferings before taken were intense . For several days they lived on the leaves of trees , and the last meat they ate was the Jione of General Lopez . They had no arras when taken . The remainder of the party have either been shot or have perished from hunger .
Lopez was garroted on Monday morning , Sept . 1 , at seven o'clock . The scene of execution &as at the ' Punta , opposite the Morro . ' There were assembled from eight to ten thousand troops , and as many citizens . A few minutes before seven o ' clock Lopez was brought forward , and ascended the platform with a firm and steady step . Facing the multitude , he made a short speech , and h ) 3 last words were , 1 die for roy beloved Cuba . ' He then took bis seat—the machine were adjusted ; at the first twist of the screw his head dropped forward —and he was dead . Thus ended the career of General Lopez , so loug the dread and terror of the Cuban authorities . In no instance ( the prisoners say ) have the Creoles of the island manifested the least disposition to join them . The excitement in Havannah is fast subsiding since the annihilation of Lepez and his forces .
There are killed and wounded of the Spanish troops 2 . 000 during engagements with tbe sympathisers , —1 , 500 killed and 500 wounded . Ia every engagement with Lopez the troops are said to have suffered severe loss . General Enna , the bravest officer in the army , was shot while . leading a charge at the head of a small squadron of cavalry . He was second in command to Concha . At that charge every man was shot down .

My 4 Uncle ' s Nephew . '—An historical reminiscence has been aptly raked up to illustrate the changed sentiments of Louis Napoleon with regard to the liberty of the press . In 1833 , when the 1 Tribune ' was condemned to pay a fine of 22 , 000 francs among the articles sent to form a lottery for the discharge of this heavy imposition was a sabre contributed by Louis Napoleon , on the blade of which was inscribed his name , with the words : ' Donne comme gage de sympathie pour la liberti de la presse . ' Among the emblems engraved on tho steel were the cap of liberty and fasces of the republic .
The republican papers of the provinces are filled with complaints of the extension to the departments of the vexations measures of police adopted at Paris against foreigners .

King Ferdinand is entering into new arrangements with tbe * benevolent Pope . ' The Church has prayed for certain powers , only a few of which the King had granted , and that with a liberal return . Pio Nono has given the pious Ferdinand power to appoint his own Arcbbiahop of Naples instead of submitting , as formerly , three names for the approval of his Holiness . The abbe is no longer to be elected by his brother monks , but the King is to appoint him , by which means his Majesty can revise the political opinions of the conerenations . In fact , his HolinesB has so much confidence in him who has violated his oath to God and man , and persecuted thousands of his subjects for believing in his sincerity , as to make Ferdinand a little Pope in his own dominions . The Jesuits call the King II primogenilo della G / iiesa .
