France. Paris.—The Progress Of The Presi...
FRANCE . Paris . —The progress of the President , since our last , has not been marked by any incident worth mentioning , and he has now returned to Paris . He arrived on Thursday night at half-past eleven o ' clock . His arrival had been announced for ten , and an immense crowd assembled in the Rue de Havre in the neighbourhood of the railroad station . A detachment of infantry occupied the spot , and two companies of the Chasseurs d ? Orleans were stationed near the terminus . A squadron of Dragoons and one of mounted Carbineers escorted the President to ihe Elysee , in the neighbourhood of which a crowd was also assembled . - ABnt Some of the indiscreet supportersof the PrMident contrived to getup arow , and ™™ J ^*? J £ Of Paris calls upon the government for an inquiry
^^ S hat the ' National' and o her dem cratic papers call the attention of the authorities to Se outrages which were infixed upon peaceful citizens on Thursday nig ht , at the return of the Pre ; sident « by a set of bandits dressed as workmen . This description is intended of course to apply to the Society of the Dix Decembre . It does not appear that the outrages of which these journals speak were very serious . ' M . de Girardin fills four columns of the « Presse ' of Thursday last with an answer to the 'National ' oh the subject of the revision of the constitution M . iie Girardin persists in advocating a revision , but
in his great anxiety to be thought even more repub lican than the « National , ' which will see in him only a disguised monarchist , he declares that his motive for desiring a revision is to afford a chance—he does not say that he indulges a hope—that by this means the institutions of the presidency , which he regards as too aristocratic , may be got rid of . A President , in the opinion of M . Girardin , is a temporary king , a king in the third degree ; and , with his present iieas of government , he cannot tolerate anything which has even in the third degree a resemblance to monarchy . "With him , then , the great object is to abolish the presidency , and he calls upon the democrats of all kinds and colours to insist upon a revision
of the constitution , and in particular addresses himself to the 'National , ' whose personal hostility to Louis Napoleon is well known , with a prediction that ' in spite of Art . 45 of the constitution , and whether universal suffrage be re-established or not , it will be again Louis Napoleon who will be elected in 1852 . if before that time the institution of the presidentship be not abolished . ' This prediction , which M . de Girardin declares must be verified , will , he trusts , convince the' National' that it is throwing away its only chance by refusing to support the proposition for a revision of the constitution . On the question of the right of revision , M . de Girardin
insists as warmly as ever that it belongs entirely to the people , and cannot be fettered or limited in any way by the written dictum of M . Marrast and bis colleagues in 1848 . ' From the moment ( he says ) when the people obtained full possession of its sovereignty , it could exercise it as Louis XIY . exercised his . Louis XIV ., in taking Colbert as minister in 1661 , and keeping him till his death in 1683 , had entered into no contract for four years ; he kept him for twenty-two years , although he could have dismissed him on the day after he chose him . 1 have never understood sovereignty in any other way than this , whether it was called popular sovereignty or royal sovereignty . '
The leaders of the majority are determined to oppose the farther augmentation of the President ' s allowance , and those who were foremost in voting the three millions will not hear of an extraordinary grant for the purpose of relieving him from fresh difficulties . It was rumoured that the President intended to take another journey in the south of France , but this is contradicted on authority . The' Moutteut' says : — ' Some journals have announced that the President of the Republic intends to visit the south of France . This statement is unfounded . The season is too far advanced for the President to think of undertaking a third journey . '
We fancy that his experience has not been so satisfactory as to prompt him te another experiment , besides which these things are very costly in a pecuniary sense . The corporations of printers , and some other trades breakfasted together last week in the gardens of the Chateau Rouges . About 690 persons were present . Pierre Lsroux presided . The permission demanded for the' banquet' was not refused by the Prefect of Police . The Nepanlese princes seem daily in better hu . monr with Paris ; and their Oriental mode of testi fying satisfaction with those who minister of their pleasures , by stripping off and presenting their gorgeous trinkets , is highly gratifying to the Parisians who are fortunate enough to attrack their approbation and secure their presents .
The Solon has returned to Tonlon , from which port it departed some time ago , with secret instructions to the coast of Morocco . It now appears that the object of the expedition was to rescue Sidi-Caddour , a near relation of Abd-el-Eader , from the hands of the Moors . This chief , having escaped from his prison at Fez , was received on board the French steamer at Rabat , and has come in her to Toulan , whence he will proceed to visit his impri . soned relation . The affair of General Haynau is exciting coniderable attention all over the continent . The ' Joarnal du Havre' says : — ' A certain degree of agitation was remarked on Saturday morning at the railway station on ihe departure of the eleven o clock train . It was rumoured in the
crowd that General Haynau was about to proceed tc Paris by the train . Every eye was directed to an elderly man , of a military look , very corpulent , and with stern features ornamented with immense black aoustaehios . ' It is Haynau / people murmured , * It is the Austrian butcher , it is the man who flogged women ! ' Fortunately some one was present who was able to state that the person in question was a Mexican general , M . Santa Cruz , who has been at Harve for some days . He cannot have been much flattered at being takeu for Haynau , and exposed on the part of the population of Graville to an ovation like that which the' pacificator' of Hungary obtained in the brewhousa at Backside . It will become
dangerous for persons having any resemblance to the too celebrated Austrian general to wear long moustachios . On Friday , for example , a gentleman going from Caen to Havre , by the Neustrie steamer , was supposed to be Haynau , and was very nearly subjected to disagreeable demonstrations . ' The ' Constitutionnel' has an article describing the meeting in London in honour of the brewers and draymen of Bankside , who committed the outrage on General Haynau . After giving an account of the speeches at this meeting , the * Constitutionel savs : —
• The ongin and composition of the meeting were disclosed by the ardour with which three cheers were given lor Kossuth and Hungary , for Mazzini and the Roman Republic , for the French Socialists , for the German patriots , and for those ef Poland . The various bodies of emigrants mutually accorded to each other this easy testimony of esteem . So terminated this pitiable farce , worthy to crown the ignoble scene which had preceded it . Such acts are useful to be pointed to , in order to show how the population of a great city can be exposed , by the exploits of small groups of bandits , to be misunderstood or calumniated . If the attack on Marshal
Haynau was really to be impnted to the English people ; if , above all , that same people , after having allowed a shameful outrage to be committed , had debased itself so far as to decree an ovation to the authors of this infamy , England ought to be placed in the lowest ranks of civilised nations . But , for the honour of the English nation and af the age we live in , that is not the case . In admitting that the haroes of Bankside have not decreed crowns to themselves , they who have committed the outrage , and they who have given it their approval , are mutually of the same value , and both together form only an exceedingly small and dispicable minority in the midst of two millions of men . '
The government has consented , in compliance with the representations of the Committee of Permanence , to institute an inquiry into the riotous proceedings of the' Decembriseurs' on the night of the President's arrival before the terminus of the Rouen Railway . Marshal Hayxatj . — M . Pierre Leroux proposed , at a democratic banquet , given a few days 320 , a fi > as £ J © the health of the brewers at
Backside . The- 'Assemblee Nationale' takes occasion from this circumstance to comment upon the barbarous instinctstof the socialists ; but the toast was perfectly consistent with the philanthropic sentimente whictf-M . Leroux has always professed , and was as follows : — ' To the brewers of London , not for havingrcommitted violence , as the calumniators of the " : people- say , but for having respected the life of-a . man who never respected the lives of his fellow creatures , and for having contented them-

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES . The opening of the first regular session of the National Assembly of Holstein took place on the 9 ih inst , with as much solemnity as dignity . The deputies attended divine service , and , after calling for the sanction and support of Heaven , repaired to the halt of meeting , aud fell straightway to work . There was no pomp , no king , no court , no ceremonial , not even the firing of guns In the present state of all minds this would have seemed frivolous and impertinent . At the church a distinguished divineMr . Wolf , preacher ! a sermon in
, which devotional and patriotic feelings were finely blended . This discourse produced an excellent effect , but that of Count Reventlow , pronounced a few moments after in the hall of meeting , left a still stronger and more positive impression . The calmness and strong decision ' . with which the sermon was delivered are strongly characteristic of the entire body of this worthy people , standing as they do surrounded with afflictions and trials . One could hardly go from the hall after hearing this simple , noble , aud moving speech without an inward assurance that the cause in which it was uttered was
not one that could immediately perish . Count Reventlow then presented severaTbills in the name of the Staatbalterschaft , one on the law of recruiting , which provides that the government shall not call upon persons under twenty years of age to serve in the army , one on the budget , and one on a voluntary loan . Count Reventlow added that the government did not contemplate proposing more laws , and recommended the states to follow its example , since they were not in a position to take in hand more business than was actually necessary .
The election of M . Bargum as president showed at once that on all leading subjects the chamber would be unanimous , since both conservatives and the opposition have voted for the ex-president of the Constituent Assembly . The first vice-president , M . Mummsen , was taken from the conservative , the second , Dr . Gulich , from the opposition side of the chamber . Only sixty-six members were present ; had all the electoral bodies in Schleswig been at liberty to return representatives 100 would have appeared . In the north of Schleswig , however , elections have been impossible , and even in the south many members have not been able to leave for Kiel .
The severest engagement that has taken place between the two armies since the battle of Idstedt occurred on the 12 th inst , the Schleswig-Holstein troops having made a reconnaissance towards Eckernforde and Missunde in a strong force , and attacked the bridge across the Schlei at the latter point , but without success ; after cannonading the defences of the bridge on the north bank of the Schlei for more than an hour the artillery was recalled , and the troops supporting it retired along the line of country by which they had advanced during the day , bivouacking to the north of their
original positions . After the cannonade ceased , and as the troops- sent forward with the batteries were retiring , the Danes , who had drawn in the bridge threw it across the creek again , issued from the entrenchments with several field-pieces , and for some time considerably annoyed the Holsteiners , who were on the chaussee to Eckernforde , and immediately south ef it , but they were in too great force to be pursued , and as soon as the Danes discovered the strength of the battalions which had not been engaged , they ceased the pursuit and regained their fortified position .
A cannonade in front indicated that the attack on the bridge bad began . The 2 d and 4 th battalions were stationed to the south of the Eckernforde chaussee ; the artillery was on the rising ground overlooking the Scblei , beyond Cosel , supported by 8 body of Jagers , I do not know of what corps , and some infantry and cavalry ; but throughout the day the greater part of the line was not in action at all . The Danes had abandoned the tete dupont on the south bank , had withdrawn ihe bridge , and returned the fire of the Holstein fieldpieces from the strong fortifications on the north bank ; the Schlei at this point is very narrow , not more than 200 paces across . To the west of the bridge were two Danish gunboats , which also took part in the action- It lasted from half-past four
till nearly six , when , as no impression had been made on the works , the firing on the Holstein side was stopped , and the guns brought back to the Eckernforde chaussee , towards the main body of the force . The whole were preparing to retire to their positions in the rear , when it appeared the Danes had , with almost incredible celerity , again thrown the bridge across , and had sent out a force with field-pieces in pursuit : they fired at the chaussee and expedited the retreat of the waggons of the train considerably ; but finding the main body south of the road too strong , they did not continue tha pursuit for any distance , and the Holsteiners retired towards Osterbye in good order . This was the close of the engagement . The Holsteiners , as they retired , set fire to the Danish camp , and in two hours it was entirely destroved .
Of the loss of the Holsteiners during the day no precise account can yet be given , the details must be supplied from the future official reports . To the left , against the town of Schleswig , nothing was attempted . The Holstein artillery has proportionately suffered the most . The result of the affair may he briefly stated . The line of operations from point to point was extensive , and the number of wounded , killed and disabled may amount to about 200 of the Holsteiners , but it is only a rough gness . There has been no further movement . The Holstein troops have returned to their position at Duvenstedt .
Resdsbdrgh . —On the 14 th inst . the main body of the Holstein army , which had remained at Beckendorf on the whole of the 12 th and 13 th , waiting for the expected advance of the Danes , have since returned within the lines of Witten and Bister . The Danes have not appeared since the last accounts . The government stated to the Assembly at Kiel , that the operations at Missunde had been to draw the enemy from his cantonments , and that Eckenforde bad not been retaken by the Danes , but abandoned by the Holsteiners in order that the enemy might not set fire to it from his ships .
An order of the day by General Willisen , of the 13 th , says : ' We have obtained what we wanted , have driven the enemy from Eekenforde , Holm , Kochendorf and Hummelfeldt , and destroyed his camps , and shown him that he is not master of Schleswig .
HESSE CASSEL . We take from the German papers the details of a revolution which has just taken place in Hesse , and of the flight of the elector . Some of ' these particulars may have met the readers eye before , but we give them now consecutively and authoritively . M . Hessenpflug's elevation from the chair of a small university to the presidency of a small German State came just in time to save him from the consequences of a forgery , of which the Court of Appeal at Greifswald found him guilty ; and the elevation to the premiership of a government of such a man was felt by the people of Hesse as a national disgrace . The Hessian Diet , tardily convoked , and
convoked , too , for the sole and express purpose of granting supplies , recorded their want of confidence in a cabinet which was composed of such budget , thsy refused to make an unconditional and unquestioned grant of money and power . They were consequently dissolved . Immediately after their dissolution a decree was published , by which the Elector in Council declared that all public burdens and taxes should , until further notice , be received by and in the interest of his government . The Standing Committee which the dissolved Diet
had appointed to watch over and to defend the interests of constitutional government protested against this decree as illegal and opposed to the spirit of . the Constitution , and steps were taken to obtain an injunction from the Hi gh Court of Appeal to counteract the late despotic measures of the Cabinet . It was then , when the country , though united in a legal opposition , was in profound peace , that M . Haasenpflug obtained the elector ' s signature to a decree which imposed on the Electorate of Hesse the burden of martial law .
The Courts of law , when appealed to , pronounced die proclamation of martial law to be illegal , and when a sergeant and his troop appeared to execute some violent order they found themselves opposed

by the messengers of justice , armed with injunctions and judicial decrees . They were tha ? corapelledip withdraw from ihqprinting presses and . newspaper offices which theylbad seized ; the ^ eraonj ^ vhpm they attempted \ ito arrest were . linstantly . clajmed by the civic magistrates , who , disputed their authority , and threatened them with the consequences of their illegal proceedings . The public prosecutor , when applied to by the Committee of the Diet , preferred an impeachment against M . Hessenpflug , and issued a warrant for his attachment ; and although the execution of that warrant was impeded by some technical irregularities , it was easy to foresee that these objections would be remoVed , and that M . Hessenpflug would be compelled to take his trial on the charges of mal-practices and treason .
An earnest of bis fate was given him by the arrest of M . Muller , a commissioner of police , who had consented to execute one of the illegal mandates which Lieutenant-General Bauer , the military commander , had given him . He was accused by the party aggrieved and taken into custody . This was on the 11 th inst . The crisis was rapidly ripening , and M . Hassenpflug , who at length began to doubt the success of his 'energetic measures , ' would fain have made his peace with the civic powers , whom he addressed in terms of the most abject humility , justifying his late measures by protesting ' that they were not indeed warranted by the condition of the country , ' but that ' the duty the Elector owed the Confederation and the Federal Diet' had compelled him to conquer his own-feelings and to afflict the country .
On the 12 th inst ., affairs wore a still more sinister appearance . One of the Generals refused to obey orders , and left the service ; the arrest of Hassenpflug was hourly to be expected , and there was no relying on the soldiers . Thus opposed by the people , by the courts of law , by the civic magistrates , and retaining but a weak hold on the soldiery , the Elector and his Premier knew that they could expect , no help from any of the other German States ; and , in a state of intense fear , the Elector and his Minister fled to Hanover , where he arrived on the . evening of the 13 tb , and ,
after an interview with the King , on . the following morning continued his flight by railway toMiriden and Dusseldprf , intending to repair to Frankfort and to implore the interference of theFederal Diet , which has of late been revived in that city under the auspices of . Austria . At Dtisseldorf he was warned by the police not to continue his journey by rail , as his presence in the train had transpired and as there was some danger of a demonstration on the part of the populace . Taking the hint thus kindly given him , the fugitive Prince left the railway and posted to Langenfeld .
M . Hassenpflug , who was not invited to accompany his master to Hanover , arrived at Rheda in Westphalia on the 13 th inst ., and on the following morning he took the train to Cologne . He was pale , and his features were distorted with fear and the fatigues of his journey . He informed his fellowtravellers that he was proceeding to Cohlentz , but it was generally supposed that he intended to escape into Belgium . His presence in the train having become known it was soon whispered at all the stations that the 'Hessen fluch , ' ( Hessen ' s curse ) was a passenger in a certain carriage , and everywhere public opinion vented itself in groans and execrations . On
the arrival of the train in DusselrJorf the gendarmes on duty were informed of the presence of Hassenpflug , the convicted forger of Greifsweld . One of the passengers , who had paid a particular and by no means welcome attention to M . Hassenpflug ' s bearing and features , was canvassing the subject with one of the gendarmes , when the ex-Minister , unable to retain his pent-up emotion , addressed him with , 'I say , sir , why do you persecute me ? ' ' Sir , ' replied the passenger , ' I do not . persecute you . I ' m just telling this man of the villanies of that scoundrel Hassenpflug . ' The gendarmes asked him for his passport , and when the Minister produced that
document a voice was heard to cry , 'Look sharp , man , whether it is a good passport ! You know he ' s a forger 1 ' Upon this M . Hassenpflug was arrested and taken to the police station , but he was subsequently allowed to proceed by post to Langenfeld , where he intended to wait for the Elector ' s arrival . The Chief Burgomaster of Cassel published a pro clamation , declaring that , although the sudden departure of the Sovereign has given ground for appre . hensions , the late negotiations between the military and civil boards have removed all cause for anxiety , 4 Cassel , ' according to the concurrent testimony of all German newspapers , 'remains in a state of the profoundest tranquillity .
We have intelligence . from Cassel to the 16 th At that date the country was profoundly tranquil General Bauer still commanded . the troops . The ministerial impeachment process had not terminated before the Supreme Court of Appeal . It was announced on the 14 th that the Elector had given orders to remove the court to Hanau . Tbe civil authorities and military commander have agreed . From Frankfort we learn that the Elecror arrived there on the 16 th , accompanied by Hasssenpflug . The Supreme Court of Appeal has thrown out tie indictment against ministers for abuse of office . Many of the higher as well as subordinate officials have been ordered to repair to Hanau , where the minister will fix the seat of government .
HESSE-DARMSTADT . Our second chamber , says a letter from Darmstadt , of September 11 th , constituted its bureau to-day . The democratic party , who all pride themselves upon their courtesy , gave the first Presidency of the chamber to Professor Hillebrand , president of the former chamber , although he does not belong to their ranks , noryet is he the best qualified for the post . Dr . Hillebrand , however , was too modest to acctpt the speakership , and a second election gave that office to M . Mobr , confessedly one of the most able men in the chamber , and a decided democrat . M . Hillebrand was then elected a vice-president , with M . Lehne for his colleague . The Constitutionnel party in the chamber consists of five members , two of whom are unable to attend its sittings .
HANOVER . On the evening of September 11 th a considerable crowd assembled in front of the British Hotel and the name of Haynau was soon heard above a storm of maledictions and hisses . As the rage and numbers of the populace were increasing , a body of police were sent from the nearest station , and two of the crowd were taken off , upon which the uproar became greater than before . At half-past eleven , three divisions of the city guard were turned out , who succeeded , after a time , in dispersing the crowd . MECKLENBURG-SCHWERIN . Sep . 16 . —A proclamation has appeared abolishing the constitution , and releasing from their oaths all who have sworn to it .
WURTEMBURG . The Hig h Court of Justice of Wurtemburg has given its decision on the impeachment of the exminister of foreign affairs , Baron vVatchter Spittler , on a charge of having violated the constitution , The court declares that there was no foundation for the impeachment .
AUSTRIA . The 'Austrian Observer' of Vienna of the 9 th expresses itself very indignant at the treatment of Gen . Haynau in London , and announces that the Austrian Ambassador at the Court of England has formally demanded that satisfaction may be given to his Government by bringing the offenders to trial . The projected political organisation of Hungary received the sanction of the monarch before his departure , and must soon appear . Further amnesties have been granted in Hungary : eight of the Aus . trian officers who , having served against the state , were condemned to many years' imprisonment , have been liberated , and all the officers who were sentenced to imprisonment in irons have had their fetters knocked off . May not the London brewers claim some credit for this amnestv ?
Sep . 15 . —The law on the organisation of Hungary is published . The country is divided into six provinces , to be administered by a governor residing at Pesth . The new organisation of Gallicia has received the imperial sanction .
PRUSSIA . Beblint , Sept . 14 . —On the 12 th , orders were sent to the commanders of several divisions to lead them to the Hessian borders ; to day instructions were given to the same officers , through the telegraph , to march into Hesse-Cassel in case tho troops of the other states should enter the electorate . In all probability Prussian troops at this moment occupy Hessian ground . A resolution tending to that result was taken in the cabinet council held this morning at Sans Souci .
ITALY AND THE PAPAL STATES . The' Roman Journal' of the 4 th inst . announces the arrival of M . Wiseman in Rome . The civil tribunal bad sentenced Messrs . Armel * Iini , Corballi , Fabri , Guiccioli , and Manzotil to reim .

This order has been specially notified to every Jewish family of the town .
JV 1 . Octavius Gigli , Director of the Statistical Board of the Ministry of Commerce , had been ar . rested for giving an asylum to M . Barba , who , having acted as commander of the movable civic guard under the Republican government , was excluded from the benefit of the amnesty . The proceedings against the murderers of Count Rossi ; interrupted for some time , had been resumed with activity . The real assassin was believsd to be in the hands of justice , but his name was kept secret .
On the 5 th inst ., a band of thirty . five highwaymen were tried by the Council of War , sitting at Bologna . Twenty-six were sentenced to death , and nine to hard labour . Ten of the former , being under twenty-one years of age , had their sentence commuted to bard labour , and the sixteen others were shot .
PORTUGAL . Such are the reports spread every day of revolutionary movements that it is difficult to say with any certainty bow things are to turn out , ' It is an acknowledged fact that all the parties : are at work ; if the object of the liberal party is solely to overthrow Count de Thomar and his colleagues , to bring into office the Duke de Saldanha and another clique , I cannot say ; but as that party are persuaded that it cannot succeed in imposing a ministry upon the Queen except by some entente , it is not surprising if the friends of Saldanha in the army take a part in it . ' It is said that the Duke de Saldanha has had
some interviews with Count das Antas and the leaders of the Progressistas . It is positively known that Saldanha ,. to avoid suspicion , has several times left Cintra in the night to come to Lisbon to be present at certain interviews , and returned also the next night , the servants reporting the Duke as being unwell and keeping his bed . Want of money has been perhaps the strongest motive to prevent the explosion . : The dilapidated condition the finaces are in , and the hafred M . Avila , Minister of Finance , has called down upon himself , have brought new embarrassments on the government .
SPAIN , Various old home claim ' s against the Treasury it is said are about to be settled , and the statement is confirmed by a royal order . The sensation produced in political circles in general by the result of the elections is very considerable ; and not only the defeated parties—I allude to the Progressistas and the Conservative opposition — but even the orthodox Moderados themselves are dissatisfied with the' constitution and aspect of the new Congress . With the exception of the Balearic and Canary Islands , which return thirteen deputies , the result is known . The Congress consists of 349 deputies , and of the late Congress about half the members have not been reelected .
GREECE . The' Wanderer' of Vienna has the following ac . count in a letter from Athens of the 3 rd , of the murder of M . Korfiotakis , Minister of Public Worship and Instruction in Greece ' . — ' He had returned on the 1 st from a promenade with his wife and a Senator Antoniades . In his house there is a cafe , and when his carriage stopped a number of persons were seated at the door drinking coffee . The senator first alighted ; the minister followed , and presented his hand to his wife to
enable her to descend . At this moment a man approached M . Korfiotakis , and discharged in his heart a pistol loaded with six balls . The assassin fled , but was seized . He , however , broke away , and he threatened to stab any one who should touch him . He was , nevertheless , subsequently , secured , as were also two persons known to be his accomplices . The minister died some hours after . He had raised himself by his talent to his high position . He leaves a wife and four children without fortune . The assassin isi supposed to have acted from political vengeance . '
UNITED STATES . The steam-ship Europa , captain Lott , arrived at Liverpool on Wednesday morning , a few minutes after midnight . She sailed from Boston on the 4 th , and Halifax on the 6 th inst . Her latest New York dates are of the 3 rd . No later news had been transmitted to Halifax by telegraph . The events of the week , the news of which reach us by the Europa , are the execution of Professor Webster at Boston on the 30 th August , and the arrival of Jenny Lind at New York .
En Congress the usual Appropriation Bill has been passed by the house , providing for the current items of national expenditure . The bill for the abolition of the slave trade in the district of Colombia , on the motion of Mr . Clay , was made the special order of the day in the Senate for the following Monday . This was opposed by the advocates of slavery , but they found themselves in a minority of twenty , and the measure was adopted A committee appointed some months since to
examine the case of certain officers under Mr . Polk ' s administration , who were charged with improper interference in the elections , have reported that some persons ,, including the editor of the ' Union , ' had declined answering the questions of the committee , and . it was proposed that they should be brought before the bar of the house for contempt . ' This useless question , ' says the ' Tribune , ' ' has called forth no small bickering , and on other subjects nothing has been accomplished but an enormous amount of talk , '
Advices from Porto Rico state that an order has been issued by the government of the island for abolishing the duties on provisions ( excepting flour ) after the 1 st of October . Some other articles of prime necessity to the productions of the island were to be admitted free of duty . A destructive epidemic has made its appearance in Mil waukie , Wisconsin , causing one hundred and nine deaths in two days . It bears some resemblance to the cholera , but is supposed to' be a species of ¦ malignant dysentery . It is confined , in a great measure , to the German population of the city .
Governor Bell ' s message to the Texan legislature on the subject of the difficulties with the general government , is a lengthy and rather bellicose document . After recounting the steps already taken in the matter , the Governor intimates the measures he things ought now to be adopted . The Americans really seem to have a keener relish for the horrible than the English , which is saying much . Their papers-are full of long-and sickening details about Professor Webster ' s execution , These accounts are drawn up in the style of our melo-dramas . We extract from the 4 New York Herald ' the account of the last moments of the criminal . The Last Hour . —Quarter-past Nine . —The Sheriff informed the witnesses to the execution that
their sad duty was about . to commence , and requested them to accompany him to the gaol . They walked arm in arm followed by the reporters for the press , and spectators , into the corridors of the gaol , and to the door of Professor Webster ' s cell , which was thrown open . The Rev . Mr . Putman then , in the presence of all assembled , offered a prayer , Professor AVebster being on his knees . When the religious services were concluded , the spectators who were invited in to hear it returned to the gaol yard . Dr . Webster was then pinioned , and a procession formed of the witnesses , preceded by the sheriff , with a cocked hat , and swoid attached to his side . The sheriff directed the witnesses where to take their places . He then ascended the scaffold for the purpose of seeing that nothinc was left undone , °
T went v . five Minutes to Ten o ' Ci-ockhverything being ready for fie execution , Professor Webster ' s arms were pinioned , and he was directed to take his place m the melancholy procession which was being formed . He did so . The high sheriff led the way , followed by the gaoler and turnkeys of Leverett-atreet gaol . Next came Professor Webster , supported by the Rev . Mr . Putman , whom the unfortunate man requested to stay with bini ! to the last moment , and constables' Dexter arid ; Easter brook . Professor Webster walked firmly but dejectedly to the scaffold , amid , the most profound silence . His step was firm , " and his countenance

betrayed no emotion . He looked & t the ground , and was apparently resigned ; to the doom which awaited , him ; 'He was ! dressed in a plain suit of black , but had no neckcloth . , ¦ His frock coat was buttoned the greater part of the way . Eighteen Minutes to' Ten 6 'Ci . ock . — The rope is placedround Professor Webster ' s neck , and the black cap put on ... An intense feeling is manifested by the spectators . Seventeen Minutes to Ten o'Clock . —The sheriff , addressing the people assembled , speaks as follows , holding in his hand the warrant of execution : — In the name of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts , and of the good people thereof , 1 now proceed to execute the orders contained in this death warrant . '
The Execution . — The sheriff then turned round , faced the prisoner , took a single step , placed his foot on a spring—the part'of the platform on which Professor Webster stood fell , and the unfortunate man was hanging by the neck . The fall was about eight feet , aud to appearance his neck was dislocated . He struggled but little , and evidently suffered no pain . " The only evidence of the death struggle which he manifested was a slight convulsive movement of the leg ? , which were partially drawn up for an instant . In less than four minutes all suns of life were extinct . After remaining suspended just half an hour , Drs . Henry G . Clark and Charles H . Stedman examined the body , and
informing the Sheriff that life was extinct , that officer so declared it to ; the legal ' witnesses arid spectators , and at the same time thanked the witnesses , in the name of the commonwealth , for attending and aiding the officers of the law in the painful duty which had just been performed . A pine coffin , painted black , was then placed beneath the body . The corpse was lowered , the rope removed from the neck , the ltd of the coffin was hailed down , and the body was then removed to the cell which Professor Webs'er recently occupied , according to the Professor ' s , express desire . It will remain there till
evening , and then be delivered to the friends of the unfortunate criminal . While living Professor Webster enjoyed the sheriff not to permit any person to look at his remains while they were in the goal . I understand that late in the evening the body will be taken to Cambridge , where arrangements will be made for the funeral , ' which will take place on Sunday next . The body will be deposited in the family vault , at Mount Auburn , one of the most beautiful cemeteries in the world . Everything connected with the funeral was arranged by Professor Webster himself .
Immediately after the execution took place , 1 was informed that Professor Webster was interrogated , shortly before the execution , as to whether be wished to make any further confession . In reply , he said that he did hot—that the last confession was true , arid that he could not add to nor substract froni it . —He died , therefore , with the assertion that the killing of Dr . Parkman was not premeditated—that in a ' rhoment ^ bf passion he struck him with a piece of grape vine—that death was the result , and that for the purpose of concealing the act , he attempted to dispose of the body in the manner specified .
MEXICO . The extraordinary session of congress , which had been awaiting the subsidence of the cholera , was opened on the 8 th . of August , when Don Luis Couto was ; elected . president , and Don Jose Maria Blanco , vice-president , of the Assembly . All the journals unite in saying that the contest for the election of the president of the republic was being carried on with greater fury tban . was ever before known . In the capital it is stated that rumours " of a pronunciamiento were rife , and that many of the military supposed to be implicated in it had been ordered to quit the city . Eight journals had united in a protest against the election of General Mariano Arista as dangerous , unpatriotic , and even criminal . Several of them published details concerning the private life of Arista .
The cholera had appeared in Tampico , but as yet was not so terrible in its ravages as elsewhere . At Vera Cruz the disease was rapidly declining , and in the capital it had quite disappeared . The ' Eco del Comercio' complains of the great suffering that prevailed in Vera Cruz , owing to the high price of flour and its bad quality . All descriptions of provisions were scarce , and apprehensions were entertained of a famine along the sea shore . Sugar was above the purchase of any but the rich . It was thought that the government would be called upon to abolish the duties upon foreign produce and allow it to enter free . The war in Yutacari was not so violent , heavy rains having fallen in many parts of the country .
CANADA . The ruins in the neighbourhood of Craig and St . Lawrence sts ., caused by the last fire , attract crowds of the curious , but I regret to say that there are few symptoms of rebuilding , though the season here compels such work to be performed before November , when the frost sets in . The last fire will be more felt in a pecuniary point of sense by the middle classes than any we have yet bad . The citizens are getting up a public meeting to pronounce precautionary measures for the future , but few , however , anticipate any benefit from the demonstration . The corporation : have not power to interdict wooden buildings in the suburbs , and they will not widen the streets within the city limits—so we must await patiently for another extensive fire to convince the thickheaded that wooden buildings stuck close together are not adapted to a large town .
The Citizens are full of a proposed cheap trip 'id Boston . Only fancy , the railway kings offer to carry the Montrealers to Boston , show them all the rare sights , and carry them back for five dollars . The firemen are to go in a body , and perhaps altogether some two thousand of our people will leave upon the third of September , the day appointed for the celebration . The Yankee folk could not have hit upon a more ingenious mode of inoculating the
Canadian masses with republican notions . Coaxing is a deuced deal cheaper than fighting These interchanges of civilities are fatal to colinialism . When our mechanics see your villages , towns , shipping , railways and farms , they will pick up ideas which will germinate and bear frait , of which the longheaded Yankees know the full value . The celebration of this year will be the prelude to annual interchants of national civilities , but Montreal will be ' come Bcstonised by the operation .
