      FRANCE . _SlSCUttlOX Of XHI _COHStllUIlOl _* . The debate en the Important question of one or two _( _jjtmbers terminated on Wednesday by the r < j < -ction of If . _Davcrgier de Hauranne ' e amendment by 530 to _jgj _^ The assembly haa adopted the system of one chamber *

      _rai ITAIIASt QCKxiOlt . On Monday , If . _BoviGHua , who had given notice of his intention to address questions to the Cabinet relative to Italian affaire , said , that the conntry was much occu pled with the fate reserved for Italy by diplomacy . ( _'Notat all . ' ) It wae , be maintained , the more preeccnpied with the pending negotiation , « it was the general _btlief , both in Germany mdErauoe _. ttat Austria _WMprw-rasrmatingfcw the purpose of imposing her _eterbitantcoaditions , andthat ahe bad only accepted the mediation of Great Britain and France after being assured by these powers that they recognised her rights la Italy . Saeh a declaration would be in open opposition to the wish expressed by the National Assembly , in fiver of the oamptere emaedpatiea of Italy .

      General _Lakoxiciebi , Minister of War , protesttd against the charge of hypocrisy directed against French iploraacy . He prayed the Assembly to consider tbat negotiations were pending , and that it might be inexpe . dlent to discuss the question at this moment . General _Cavaiosuc replied , that wben it wai an . _nounced to tba Assembly tbat France asd England had offered their joint mediation to _Atutrl _* _. if had sanctioned the reierve of the government in not replying to quel tianilike those put by M . rTuvignler . The Anembly , be trusted , would again _maaif est in determination to remain silent at the present advanced stage of the ne . gotiatiens _. He accordingly called upon the Assembly to pass to the order of tbe day .

      IL Lee-bo Bonn- , who followed , stated , that the Asiemkly could net be satisfied with so laconic a reply . Tbe conntry had aright to be more enlightened under a republio than under a monarchy , when the monarch alone possessed the right of concluding treaties . The coarse _anaoaaced by the Caneral waa contrary to the Tery essence of the Republican Government , and to the real interests of France . After the revolution of Februry the attitude assumed by France towards Europe was this : —the Provisional Government had to nuke choice of two systems—conquest , or propaganda by force , and moral propaganda . Thia latter coarse was adopted , and Uwaa m fruitful , that in two mentis and a half all the kings and princei of German-- and Italy gave liberal institutions to their _subJecU . M . L » martineh » d proclaimed

      that every nation tbat rote to _casquer ita nationality might rely oa theuatstanca of France , France woald sot take the initiative , bnt it was well understood that if Germany wished to recover ber unit- ' , and Italy her independence , -France wai bound to assist them . Tba _B-publfc , continued H , Learn Rollin , should make so oonoEssiens to absolute powers . The advances of the last government to tbe Holy Alliance were the real causes of ita downfall . Wby court tba recognition of despots ! The old monarchies reluctantly acquiesced in the revolution . If any doubt existed on tbe subject , be

      would lay before tbe Assembly a secret treaty , by virtue of which Wellington was to keep a constant wateh over France . In his opinion war was imminent , and it now remained to ba seen whether it waa not preferable for France to _cera-aence it at once on the territory of others by invoking a _seble principle , than to wait until all ber friends were crushed and engage in it on her ewn soil . What the despots wished was to gain time—temporise aad prepare for war . Washington was opposed to all alliances . France should distrast them likewise . What be recommended was , tbat France should hold a firm language to all Powers , and demand the complete emancipation and independence ef Italy .

      The _Pmxsrn-arr of the _Cenircn . briefly replied byre _, peating that tbe government weald net _comprarnise the interests of Italy or honour ef France , and declared he bad as little affection for the treaties of 1815 as H . BoUJn himself . The qaestion of the order of the day purely and simply having been pnt to tbe vote , was adopted by 441 to S 55 giving ministers a _majority of 105 . _iicmss scxtrc—TEf £ _bekocsatm _su-qd-jm . On Saturday , H . Hi *** oT rose to address interpella . tiens to the Minister of the Interior , respecting a banquet commemorative of the proclamation of the Republic of 2793 . given at Toulouse on the 22 nd ult .

      At tbat banquet all the first magistrates of the city were present , the Prefect of the Haute Garonne at the bead . Tet tbey bad been sufficiently cautioned , for the £ maii-i patio * -contained , on the 18 th , the programme of the fete , In which it was stated that only one toast would be proposed— 'The democratic and social Republic . ' The Prefect had accepted the invitation , and was asked to be included among the subscribers . The municipality , by a majority of nineteen te eleven , decided tbatit sbeuld oSdally assist at the banquet , and the mayor , three of bis deputies , and tbe remainder of tbe municipal council aotually assisted at it . The Rector of the University ihe whole Academy ' , the Attorney General sad blsoScers , aU participated in that _manlsfes tation in favsnref theBedBepnbHc . Its oiject could not be mistaken ; tke hall was bung with red ; the pillars and the pedestal , supporting the brut ef Liberty , were covered with red cloth ; tha tricoloared _fisg had been banished , and the white and bine of the cockade were concealed so that

      the red colour alone waa visible . The Prefect—whose weakness fat did not mean to excuse—had , he should lay , the courage to propose a toast to the National Assembly , whieh was received with cries of 'Sown with the Assembly / The toast to Gtatral Gavaignae was similarly treated , and tbe authorities quietly looked on with _, ont protesting . In the evening the guests traversed the streets in procession , preceded by the Sappers and the band of the Natianal Guard , Todferating _, * Vive Robespierre ! ' * TiveMarat ! ' "five la Montague ! ' 'Mott _aux riches !* 'A baa _l'Assemblee Nationale ! ' 'Tire Barbes _P'Yive la Guillotine !* M . Danjoy asked if it was by holding oat such doctrines to tbe oonntry—whether they were professed on the bowling-green of Toulouse , or ia the garden of the Chalet , in Paris—that the partisans ef the Bed Republic expected to convert the nation to their principles ! Was it by heldlngoat to France the prospect of aisignats , foreign war , and , ultimately , tbe guillotine , that the conversion waa to be effected 1

      At those words such a scene of confusion arose as never was before witnessed in the chamber ; the depaties of the Montague rushed into the 'bsmlcycle / surrounded the tribune on aH sides , and several who attempted to scale it wereprevented from doing to by the interferenceof M . Clement Thomas and General Lshre . ton . The officers of tbe Assembly occupied the two staircases leading to the tribune and protected M . Sanjoy . The scene resembled on a small scale the invasion of the ball by tbe people oa tbe 15 th of May . When the hemicycle was cleared and silence restored M . Daxiot explained ; He protested that be bad no intentiea of aocusing any of bis colleagues , but be

      maintained that the advocacy of the doctrines of 1793 was ex trear ery dangerous , inasmuch aa the people regarded the guillotine as tbeir natural consequence . ( Cries of < Order , order !'} M . Danjoy , next read frora the Joubxa * . do Ches tbe account of a banquet which took place at Bourges on the same occasion ; The first tout proposed waa directed against tha bourgeoisie , whom tt depicted tinder the most odious colours aad charged with co werdioe and iagratitude . In conelrunon , be called on tbe Ministers of the Interior , of Justice , and Publio Instruction , to tell the Assembly what measures they had _thenght proper to adopt towards the authorities wbo had assisted at those manifestations .

      M . _Sbx-axd , Minister of the Interior , said , that he had not awaited these interpellations to adopt measures for the maintenance of order . Hethoughtthattbose accounts shonld not be hastily credited , and he hoped , and had reason te believe , that the statement was erroneous and exaggerated . If true the dismissal of those funeiionaries would be too light a penalty , and the Assembly might rest assured that the moment he ascertained the truth he would perform bis duty . M . Jolt , former commissary of the government at Toulouse , contested the accuracy of tbe statement which M . Dapjoy bed borrowed from a journal ef that city _. The accusation waa directed against the whole population of Toulouse , for nearly 4 , 000 of ita inhabitants sat _dewnat the fraternal and patriotic banquet of the 22 nd . The ben-rnet , he contended , had been a patriotic necessityin presence ofthe weakness of the government .

      , General LixoMCiEax , Minister of War , rose and repelled the charge of weakness directed against the government . Had the chief of the Executive power not _considered the banquet of tbe 22 nd as dangerous for the Republic , he would not have ordered him to forbid the general commanding the division to appear there at it . After hearing M . _Hathiea de Ia Drome , who protested in the name of the Republicans present at tbe banquet of the C-alet _, against the accusations directed against them , the Assembly passed to the order ef the day . Marcbaod was arrested on Friday within the precincts of the Assembly , for telling one of its members that unless ihe Assembly released Raspail from confinement within three days , the Assembly shonld be invaded by 160 , 001 men , and overthrown . _BtxacaiTic SASftUET .

      On Saturday eveninga social and democratic banquet was held at one of the barriers of Peris , called the Barrierede Sevres . Among those present were MM . Joly » nd Mule , and a few otber members of the National Assembly . The number of guests was about 1 , 250 . A great number of toasts waa proposed , from which the character of the meeting may be gathered . The _followiag are the mest remarkable : — ' To the right ef labour ' — To social regeneration '— 'To the social and democratic Republic '— * To the fraternity and union of nations . ' The faealtk of the democratic representatives was received with immense cheeriEg , and shouts of 'Vive la Bepublique Sodale '— 'Vive _Baspail _'— 'Vive the Martyrs of June who are groaning ia dungeons . ' The ( rovernment had taken precautions to prevent a disturbance , but tfeey were not considered necessary , as the assembly separated quietly . No accountof the speeches has been parli-hed .

      _TheRsdBeputHcaOBrm _d Socialists appear resolved to play over again Ihe drama oftbebanquets of last year . Such manifestations are accordingly announced in several ofthe principal « Wes .

      THE WAR IN HUNGARY . The advance ef tbe Ban Jellachioh of Croatia towards tbe capital of Hungary , the check he met with on the river Szala , and his subsequent triumphant entrance into Stuhlweissenburg , are confirmed . ' It _' was confidently rumoured at Vienna on the 27 th ult ,, tbat he was under the walls of Pesth . Stnhlweissenbarg , SzekesFejervar , or _Alba-regalis ia ealy eight and a half post stages frcm Pesth . The archduke Stephen has fled to Yienna . The scene in the Parliament at Pesth was a stormy one on the 24 th ult . Kossuth , pale from illness and excitement , mounted tbe tribune , and _dsolared that he bad

      been authorised by tbe Prime Mintsttr to call tbe people to arms . ' I call you to arms , ' he said , ' to extirpate the hostile brood . Yon will never see me more , unless at the bead of any army capable to do it . Half an hour _hsnee I eball take a standard in my hand , and let who win follow me . * ( Cries of « We will , we wilL' ) When I look around me in Pesth , I see men enough capable of bearing arms . If tbey cannot procure them , they have teeth , sticks , spades , aad stones ; anything will do to knock ont the brains of a robber , and we are saved . ILet all the shops be closed ; let it not be , said that traffic is carried on by some , whilst others are fighting for their independence . Let our sittings here cease , if necessary . ' Kossuth then rose and left tbe Assembly . - '

      The victories of the Ban seem to bave somewhat startled his protectors at Yienna . The AuaEKEin _OrsTBBsiecTncHE Ztiitma of the 27 th ult . contains the following : — 'It has pleased hia Majesty the Emperor to appelnt _LlsuUnsnt Field Marshall Count of Limberg ( a born Hungarian ) to the functions of Royal Hungarian Military Commissary , placteg under his orders all the land troops , _Gracxer ( frontier regiments ) and guards not excepting the Croatlans .

The Diet is to be dissolved ; The different Ministries established at Pesth are to be transferred to Yienna , and Hungary again became * a province of Austria , with the Emperor its constitutional Sing .

      Abtificial Teeth.— An Ingenious Method H...

      _Abtificial Teeth . — An ingenious method has very re . cently been discovered by Mr Moggridge , of Old Burling _, ton-street , who some time ago obtained a patent for an invention by which the pneumatic principle was made applicable to the fixing of artificial palates , for forming artificial teeth , and for constructing and tinting them in such a manner that a closer resemblance to nature is produced than has hitherto been obtained ; in fact , a method by wbich the graduated opacity and _semi-transpareacy ef natural teeth are represented . This invention is of interest to a vast number of persons , and will supersede the somewhat repulsive custom of making use of the teeth of dead men to supply the wants of living , a E ractice which engenders in many instances disease . It i a fact that there has lately been an importation ef teeth from Paris feto London , the teeth having been extracted from tbe jaws of the insurgents and their opponents slain in the late insurrections in the former city . Any person interested in this invention can form his own opinion of its merits by examining the results ofthe process _, which are worthy of investigation . —Times .

      GUILDHALL . _—Whoeisak _SrsiCK or- Switomko . —On Tuesday a respectably _dreised individual , named James Here , of No . Uj PresldeBt . street , Klng ' w 9 uare , was charged with obtaining goods under false pretences . —The oourt was crowded with 'tradesmen in the City , who had been victimised to a very considerable extent by the prisoner , who , there was not the slightest doubt , was couneoted with other parties . —Mr Robert Turner , of No . 16 , _Ludgate-hul , said _; On the 19 th pf August the prisoner came to my shop ' and said he-was going into the country , and should be glad If I would let him take four _sbawlsj as be had an opportunity of disposing of two of them . I replied that perhaps it would be better if he went tos wholesale house , whire he would get them cheaper than from me , but he said he did not know where to go

      to get the precise sized shawl . Having known him for some years , I at list ordered toy assistant to let htm have them , and on being asked for his address , he gave his _residence as being at King-square , Goswell-street _, and went away with the articles . - On the Monday following he again called , while I wai absent , and informed my assistant tbat he had sold two ofthe shawls , and tbat he had no doubt he oould sell the others , but that ho wanted a Isngth ' of black satinet for one of the purcha sers .- 'It was here intimated that another prisoner , wbo was at the Mansion Honse , was to be brought for the purpose of implicating _i him in tbe transections of Hare , and accordingly the case was adjournodfora short time , when a young man named Maries Rehden was placed in the dock , arid Michael Haydon , 21 , of the City detective

      force , deposed to the following effeot : —l charge Rehdtn with obtaining three sovereigns from me under false pre . _tesces . At eleven o ' clock this merning I met the prisoner by appointment , at Red Lion-street , Jobn . _street-rosd _, for the purpose of reoeivlng information to enable me te _appreh-ad the prisoner Hare . Rehden said . ' If you place in my hands three sovereigns , I will give you Information which will enable you to take Hare . ' I said , ' If yon enable me to recover the property I will do bo . ' He replied that he would , upon which I placed the money in his hands , when he turned round wit _* i a _Isugb , and said , I inight go to the station-house , and I would there find him in custody . I asked him to retarn the money , when he told me I might do my best or worst , for that he sboutd not return it ; in consequence of wbioh I took

      him into custody , and on being searched at Bow-lane station , I found among other ¦ things a duplicate relating to a piece of satin belonging to a party now present , but which he said had been given to blot by Hare . I then went to his lodgings , in Towlerstreet West , aad saw his mother aad sister , who pointed out a portmanteah to me . It was in the prisoner ' s room and , represented as belonging to Hare . I took possession of it , and Webb , another offioer , who aocompanied me , had a desk . In the portmanteau I found a number of duplicates , to the amount of between £ 50 and £ 61 . When I conversed with Rehden the previous dsy , he told me that he knew where thb duplicates were , as also where tiie portmanteau was , but he would not tell me until be got the money . I got the Information from the

      prisoner that Hare was in custody after he got the money . I get other i nformation after he was in custody , but not from the prisoner . —Rehden I told yon at the stationhouse where the portmanteau : was . —Haydon : You did not . I found _fifty-sight duplicates of different kinds of property , a number of whieh are pledged In the name of Rehden ; and I also found the various invoices relating to the property , a portion of which could , be identified by persons now present . At any rate I think If they were remanded T could , establish between twenty and thirty oases against them . —A number of individuals here said thoy had been swindled in a similar manner

      —Alderman Moon asked the prisoners if they wished to say any . thing ?—Rehden said that he certainly pawned some of the things , as the ether prisoner , a distant relation , said they were the remains of his bankrupt stock . —Alderman Moon said the charge was of so serious a nature , and , as far as the evidence went , 'proved that a regular system of swindling bad been carried on , that he must remand them both antil Tuesday next . — Rehden asked to be admitted to bail , but his application was refused . —Hare then made a similar request , wben a general laugh throughout the court took plaoe , in which he himself joined , bnt as a matter ef course that was refused also . They were then removed _.

The _eaptaio , he added , asked me in the presence of a gentleman whom ho brought on board , whether I was

      willing to go to work ; I said yes , and M'Donald _ssid tbe same . All the rest refused . They said tbey would not go home in the vessel , naleis Smith did . Smith Bald to them , ' Mind what you say , or the captain will get hold of your words . ' GiUler cams on board again and said be wonld do for me before I went home in tbe ship . This was after the refusal , and he was taken oa shore by the police . I got the steam of the vessel up , but I did not attempt to go on , for I did not know anything of engineering . —Joseph Kavanagh , second mate of the Lion , also corroborated the captain ' s evidence . He added thai after aU the prisoners went on shore , except Rayner and M'Donald , Gilller , James , Payne , and Barclay , returned on board , and asked him what he was doing there . Witness said he was left ia charge of the engine room , and refused to let them go In . Afterwards , when Jsmes and Gilller came on board upon pretence of getting bread , tha first mate said to them that he would send them bread ,

      but as tbey had left tbe ship of their own accord , he weald not allow them to came oh board for that purpose _.
