      FRANCE . THE PRESIDENT ' S SALARY . ¦ . We announced in our last number the bringing forward of the bill for the enormous augmentation of tbe President's salary . "We now give the debate on the introduction of this infamous scheme : — President : M . Fould has the tribune for a communication from the government . The Minuter of Finance said : I have the honour of presenting a bill demanding an increase of salary ( traitement ) for the President of the Repu ' . lic . ( Great uproar , particularl y on the Mountain . ) On the Left : Head the expose des motifs . Oa i be Right : Head , read .

      Tie Minister of Finance then read as follows : — ' Gentlemen , when the Constituent Assembly by lbs bill of March 12 . 1849 , voted a provisional « H > n of 60 D , 000 ? r . to the executive power for frais de representation , it was well understood that if afterwards that allowance was insufficient , ( he Legislative Assembly would have the faculty to raise it to the level of the necessities imposed on the . first magistrate of the state by the constitution , and iiy the habits of the country . { Noise on the Left . ) The experience of more than a year has demonstrated this insufficiency in the most absolute manner , and it heinjc our duty to inform you of the

      same , we now come forward without hesitation to fuifil that duty . The expose det motifs of our con-BUtulional compact has defined the position , the di pl ' -y . and the attributes of the President of the Republic , in terms which it is essential to place before yes . The constitution , it is there declared , confers on him all the attributes which appertain to the head of the state ; it is in him that is personified the action of France : he knows , - he promul gates , and lie executes the wishes of the republic . If the Assembly is the soul of the republic , he is its ann ; be represents it abroad , he disposes of its forces , he g ives an impetus to the administration , and directs it , and he is the protector of orderthe

      , defender of society , the first magistrate of a powerful and free psople , the superior agent of a democracy . He ought , consequentl y , to have at the same time the dignity and the force of the acting law . It is ihat which we have desired in according to that power all the ri g hts which the constitution attaches to b ? ' s eminent position . We assign to him supreme rank and authority ; and his trill aught not to encounter any resistance , ( or he coamand 3 in the name of the law . All the meve-Bunt of the home and foreign affairs of the state depends on him , ascends on him ; and , in consequi . i > ce , we desire that he he placed by the republic in riie condition of honour and prerogative which

      is fit ing for htm who represents France with other naiims . And if the salary which we have appropriated to these functions has appeared to as too clr amscribed , the reason , in our opinion , is , that the national treasury ought to provide for all expen-es of representation , the amount of which will canainly exceed what we have fixed for his parson . It was so , gentlemen , that the committee on the coi . stitntion expressed itself . The anticipation which it expressed in these last lines was founded on a judicious appreciation of the charges which were shure to w « gh on functions so hi g hl y placed . It , in fact , belongs to the dignity of the republic to give the means of properly supporting the rank

      which he occupies to this first magistrate , representing us , as he does , with other nations , who is placed by his duties in constant relations with foreign ambassadors in France , with all the constituted bodies of the state , and who is obliged to move about constantly , if he desires to study the Wishes and wants of the country , We may add , gentlemen , that political revolutions , which may change in a day the form of a government , do not modify with the same facility , and the same promptitude , the habits of an ancient nation , where certain habits have taken deep root . In our country the chief of the state has alwavs been considered as a second Providence—( loud bursts of

      laughter on the Left)—constantly disposed to «• - courage the arts , to recompense meritorious actions , and to succour the unfortunate . Now , as formerly , you are convinced , gentlemen , that numerous sufferers deserving of interest raise from all points of France their supplications towards the superior chief of the government , who , in the eyes of the unfortunate , should personify the beneficent action Of the country . Ought his hands to remain absolutely closed ? Would it be for the dignity and the Interest of the republic to reduce its representative to an Inability of doing good ? Would an economy attended with such a deplorable result be a wise ore ? We do not consider it necessary to insist on

      this point to prove ts the Assembly that the credit inscribed in the budget is hrought within too narrow limits to allow the President to fulfil with dignity the obligations attached to his position . It is a question of propriety , of personal appreciation , which cannot be discussed b y details ; which each one roust judge of according to bis own feeling of di gnity and according to the opinion which he forms of the duties of the President of tne French republic . It is in appealing to this sentiment , gentlemen , that we propose to you to carry up the allowance of the execute government to the sum of 250 , 000 f . a month . It is well understood that by means of thi 3 grant the credit appropriated to the expense of the Elysee will disappear from the budget

      of public works . 'Our prcpssition , gentlemen , does not contain any idea of innovation . The only question is to continue what has been done for the last ei ghteen months within proper limits ; and to impose on the state . chargfis for public ulility , to which it would be neither just , nor constitutional , nor possible to continue any longer the character of personal sacrifices . Such , gentlemen , is the object of ths bill which we have the honour to present to you . ' I have the hotiGur also , added the honourable minister , ts propose to you to refer the bill for examination to the committee of supplementary credits . ( Tremendoas uproar and disapprobation on the Left : loud cries of The previous question ! ' from the $ anie quarter . )

      M . PascaiDoprat proposed to send the bill to the bureaux , to have a special committee appointed there in the usual manner to examine it . M . Batjdin : And I propose the previous ques Uonl The President : You cannot propose the previous question on a proposition of the government . ii . Baudot persisted in his demand 5 n the midst of great confusion . Tbe President : The previous question cannot be brought forward against ihe initiative of t ! : e government . When the discussion has commenced it will ce different .

      MAI . Baudin , Schoelcber , and other Montagsards tittered loud exclamations . ( Agitation . ) M . Bacdin , to the President : It is evident that you will not put my proposition to the vote . The President : It is clear that I will not jmt an unconstitutional proposition to the voie . We return to the constitutional one of MP . Duprat . The proposition of M . P . Duprat was then put to the vote and adopted ; the bill being ac cordingly sent ta the Bureaux—The sitting then dosed . °

      Sunbay . —Yesterday the Assembl y met in th » - bureaux to appoint a commit ^ of fifteen members on the Dotation Bill . There was- a numerous attendance of representatives of all shades , and all the ministers were present . Tbe discussion lasted till three ; the commissioners were only named after several ballots , and in most bureaux by a narrow majority . The Mountain , tbe tiers parti , and the legitimists voted against the candidates favourable to the bill . The Ministers , particularly MM . Ronher , Baroche , and Fould , spoke strongly in favour of the bill , stating that the government would accept no modification , and would treat the question as a vote of confidence . The committee

      consists of MM . Lagarde , de Dalmatie , Leverrier . Lefebre Dumfle , Thomine-Desmazures , Cretan i Bavonx , Dufougerais , Flacdin , de Mornay , Audren de Kerdrel , Chapot , Favreau , Augustin Giraud , and Fortoul . Five members , Leverrier , Lefebre , Durufle , Bavoux , Giraud , and Fortoul have declared in favour of the bill . Seven members , MM Lagarde Thomine-Desmazures , Creton , Dufougerias , de Mornay , Chapot , and Favreau , have pronounced against it . MM . de Dalmatie , Fandin , and de Eerdrel are

      for a mixed system . They propose to make a single grant for once in order to pay tbe President ' s dibts , but to aaktiin the permanent allowance at its present fi gure . The government rejected all amendments to the bill . The result of the votes in the bureaux was as follows - .-Number of votes , 531 for the bill , 226 ; against , 305 . Of the memler * wbo . ; were absent , ana of those who abstained , tbe -jgreat njBjontj was opposed to the bill . Therefore , -otfleMtaere should occur some unexpected turnia the affair , not only the bill must be considered as

      lost , but the ministry as on the point of resignation . " \ The government organs admit that the majority of the committee on the President's salary is opposed ta the augmentation ; but ... the : * ' C 6 nstiiutionnel ' -states that the President will accept of no modification of the measure , and that : paper says : An opinion has been expressed in the bureau and in the Chamber , which consists in paying the presumed debts of the President , and in refusing the credit demanded . We are enabled to affirm that no such compromise will be effected by the President of the Republic , and in that respect we approve of the resolution of the Chief of the State . In France , a government which would allow itself to be humbled would cease to be a government .

      The Transportation Bill . —In the Assembly on Fiiday the debate opened on the third reading of the Transportation Bill . M . Lagrange designated the bill as the continuance of a system of provocation . The majority wanted to hunt down the republic . ( Interruption and laughter . ) It would be incomprehensible to posterity how a government , hatched from the blood of the combatants of Feb - ruary , a government issued on the 10 th of December from universal suffrage , and charged by six millions of citizens with the mission of making good laws , could tear the act of its baptism . Since the pretended conspi r acy of lannary 29 , how many prs . vocations had been accumulated ? Bad passions

      had flown abroad on the wings of the telegraph . ( Laughter . ) France debasrd at home and insulted abroad . Hungary abandoned . ( Noise . ; Rome bombarded , ( Fresh raterrap ion . ) The rev . flthers reviving the inqusition . Provocation always and everywhere . Trees of liberty cut down ; the tombs of the soldiers of Jul y and February profaned ; 600 citizens transported without judgment ; the schools locked np , and the keys given to the Jesuits ; soldiers prosecuted for voting according to their consciences ; and on the morrow of the murder of universal suffrage— ( loud cries of'Order ! order ! ' ) —its corps had been disinterred to strip it of tbe right of petition . ( Noise . ) They had audaciouslv

      —( Order ! order !)—set their seals on the electoral meetings . The orphans and widows of the victims of February were starved , while they paid the wages of the violation of the sovereignty of the people . Here an altercation commenced and went on between the speaker and the president , who called him to order twice . The Assembly expressed , by frequent bursts of laughter , its amusement at the hits g iven and received , while M . Legrange grew more violent in proportion to the admonitions he received , and the presideut more tart and smart in his repartees . When quiet was restored , M . Thuriot de la Rosier ? said that the party of disorder must be attacked with uncompromising vigour . Louis Phili ppe had fallen by an attempt to come to an understanding with them . The majority , if it did

      not wish to pass over to the opinions of M . de Flotte , must take the initiative , t he offensive . M . de Flotte said they might talk of war if the pleased ? but let them not talk of right and justice . They were the majority , the strong ; they mig ht make laws , and he would obey them—the people would obey them ; but the minority claimed the priviledge of appealing to history , to the future , to op inion . The law was equally opposed to reli gion and morals , and they had no ri ght to quote either in its support . The majority did not understand the position of representatives . They set themselves up for tutors of the people , while they were only there to do the people ' s will . ( Noise on the Right . ) The general discussion was then closed , and the house passed to the discussion of the separate articles .

      After the rejection of several amendments , the three first articles of the law were adopted in the same form as on the Becond deliberation . Article 4 and 5 designate the valley ef Waithau and the isle of Nonkahiva as tbe places of transportation . M . Daponfc du Bussac moved that the places should be left to be named in an ulterior law . He entered into details to prove that Waithau and Non . kahiva were deserts and uninhabitable . This amendment was rejected , and all the articles voted by a large majority , except that relative to the retroactivitv .

      On Saturday the Assembly resumed the debate . M . Rodat , the reporter , proposed the suppression of Art . 8 , which declares transportation not applicable to offences committed before the law . After an eloquent speech by Gen . Fabvier in favour of maintaining the article , a ballot took place , which gave 329 votes for the article and 313 against j a result which was received with cheers by the liberals . The Clubs . —On Thursday , the bill for the suppression of clubs for another year was voted by a majority of 468 to 191 . Tbe committee of Parliamentary initiative has resolved to take into consideration the proposition of General de Gammont for transferring the feat of government from Paris by a majority of twelve to eleven .

      The Prefect of the Haute Vienne has published a decree prohibiting the reading aloud of newspapers in manufactories throughout the department . The editor of the Tribune du Jonr' has been condemned by default to imprisonment for fifteen days and to pay a fine of 2 , 000 f ., for having published a seditions libel . The Journal du Peuple' of Dijon was seized on Sunday last . The director of the ' Emancipation de Normandie * was sentenced by the Court of Assize of R-iuen on Friday to imprisonment for six months and to pay a fine of 300 f . for a seditious libel . Some arrests for political causes have been made at Lyons . 150 workmen joined in a strike at Beauvais . The leaders were arrested , and tranquillity restored .

      The MayoFof Bleneau department of the Yonne , has been sentenced to 100 / . fine by the Police Court of Joigny , for having circulated Socialist writings . Thanks to the independence of the jury of the tribunal of the Seine , and to the spirited defence of M . Billault , the 'Evenement' prosecuted for exciting to hatred against the government , has been acquitted . Tbe director of the ' Voix du Peuple' was condemned by the Court of Assiz $ of Paris , on Friday , to imprisonment for six months and to pay a fine of 3 , 000 f ., for having published a seditious libel , on t he l « t of April last , containing an attack on the Catholic religion .

      M . Victor Maugin , tbe director of the ' National de l ' Ouesf , was sentenced by the Coutt of Assize of Nantes , on the 5 th inst ., to six months' imprisonment and to pay a fine of l . OOOf ., for having published a libel on Colonel Thomas , of the llih regiment of light infantry , accusing him of having imsed the Stone bridge at Angers whilst his men , by his orders , crossed the suspension brid ge , by which numbers were drowned , the bridge having given way under their wei g ht . The Court further ordered that the publication of the paper be suspended for one month in consequence of its having b ? en condemned three times during twelve months . A private in the 69 th . regiment of the line was senseneed to death by ccurt-martial , in Paris , on Friday , for having twice struck a corporal of his company .

      The . Courrier de Loiret Cher' states that Abd-el-Kader is gravely indisposed , and that a consultation has been held on the case at the chateau of Amboise . Monday —The President of the Republic , in tbe uniform ef a general of the National Guard , left the Elysee yesterday morning , about nine o ' clock , in an open cavriage , for the Northern Railway . He was accompanied by the Ministers of War aud of Commerce , and two orderly officers , and was escorted b y a bod y of Laucers . A special train was waiting to carry him to Saint Quentin , for the inau duration of the railway from that place to Creil . At Saint Qaentin a large crowd cried ' Vive la Republic Demoeratique et Sociale ! ' Another cowd got op the opposition cry of * Vive 1 'Empereur !' This is really the only event of importance which has marked the progress of the President .

      M . Thiers set out yesterday for London , accompanied by his wife and . Mdme . Dosne . In order to guard against uncharitable constructions as to ihe motives of his journey , M . Thiers had an interview with the President before his departure . He did not , it is said , disguise his intention of visiting the ex-king , but represented this step as a duty which be owed to his old master , whose life was fast ebb" 8 ™ . Progress of a fatal disease . Louis Philippe is said to be dying of cancer in the stomach , and his physicians state that his life can scarcely last a month longer .

      All Pans is occupied to-day with the singular revelations contained in a letter published by the Siecle . You may remember that M . Rigal , a member of the Left , moved not long ago for some statistical documents connected with the working of the Electoral Law . M . Rigal having completed a report , founded on these papers , whereby he made it appear that the result of the new law would be to cut off six mil-Dons of electors from the exercise of the suffrage , app lied for an audience with the President of tbe Republic , in order to submit to him the arguments

      Untitled Article

      by which he arrived at this conclusion ^¦ the law had been already voted by the Chamber'when . the interview was solicited ^ ; and when it , tva £ granted , the term of three days * allowed to the President for deciding on a fresh deliberationi having' exp ired , the law appeared " promulgated with all due form in ' . the 1 MonUeur . ' M . Ri gal , albeit a day too late for suspending the blow dealt on universal suffrage , nevertheless repaired to the El ysee . at the hour appointed . Ihe circumstances of his interview having been

      incorrectly represented by the Siecle , he has written a letter to that paper , communicating the most minute details of his conversation with the President ; A fact of the greatest importance results from this disclosure . The President is proved to have laboured under the delusion that the new law was not applicable to presidential elections , and to have imagined that the chief magistrate of the Republic would be chosen according to the special law passed by the Constituent Assembly , b y which his own election was determined .

      Tuesday . —The Prefect of Police has just addressed the following circular to the commissaries of police of Paris and of the banlieu : —' Paris , June 8 . —Sir , —There exists in Paris , and in the department of the Seine , a very considerable number of foreigners , whose presence , under existing circumstances , demands the attention of the authorities ! . Several of them are connected with the enemies of order , and at a given raoment would make common cause with the insurgents . All those whose sojourn here is calculated to endanger public security should be expelled from the French t rritory in virtue of the law of December 3 , 1849 . It is important that the commissaries of police should effectually second the active surveillance which I cause to be exercised with regard to these dangerous visitors . You ' will therefore take the

      necessary steps to make yourself , acquainted with a'l the foreigners who reside temporary in your district . You should minutely inquire into the conduct , the moral conduct , of each , of them , and summon to your office those of whom you may receive an unfavourable account . After having regularly ascertained their nationality , you will signify to them that the French government is disposed to adopt the most rigorous measures towards those who meddle with political intrigues , : and whose conduct , shall be in any way reprehensible ,

      and that in such a case they will be expelled from France , and conducted , in case of need , to the frontier by the Gendarmerie . It is well understood that you will not give any warning of this kind to foreigners who may be personally known to you as peaceable and inoffensive men . You will transmit repori 8 ° to me regularly and successively , in which you will render me an accomn of the result of your investigations , and you will specially point out to me all the foreigners whom you may think unworthy of French hospitality —P . Carxier . ' •¦¦;

      Wednesday . —According to telegraphic intelligence , which reached Paris yesterday from Stras bourg , Emile de Girardin was certain of his election for the Bas-Rhin , having polled 18 , 000 votes more tharf the Conservative candidate , M . Malle . letters from Tours of tbe lltb , state that several attacks have been lately made by the Socialists on the soldiers of the garrison . The Prefect of the Aude-has suspended the mayor of St . Cenat and the deputy mayor of Moux . A republican paper , ' of Clermont Ferrand , has been seized by order of the Attorney-General for publishing an article copied from the works of Robespierre . Several of the delegates of the associations who

      were arrested on the 29 th of May , in the Rue Michel le Comte , have been removed to the . prison of the Nouvelle Force . A manifesto is spnken of as on the point of being issued by Louis Philippe , expressing bis contrition at having consented in 1830 to replace the legitimate Bourbon branch . People are much occupied with the journey of M . ThierB . : ' ¦ ....:

      GERMANY . BERLIN , June 7 . —The expected press lows arc published . They are very- severe . Large sums are required to be deposited as cautinri money by every journal in existence , within a month from this date . Every printer , publisher , &c ; must obtain a licence from tbe government . The Minister of the Interior has power to suspend or prohibit any journal . Heavy fines and imprisonments are to be inflicted on all real transgressors . The ministerial memorial which accompanies the law paints the radical press in . the blackest colours , but leaves to the parliament of the German union tbe task of drawing up a general and definitive law . The new law is stated to be merely , temporary , but no period is fixed ( or its operation .

      The direct negotiations with Copenhagen have failed . The Danes have refused to accept the proposal of the men of confidence . Tbe English ambassador , Sir W . Wynn , is said to have encouraged the Danes in their obstinacy . . Some pretended revelations of a conspiracy connected with the attack on the King , made by a soldier in custody for a military offence at Potsdam , had been proved to be mere invention or a hnax . In the Kolnische Zsitung' of the 11 th inst . we find the following paragraph illustrative uf the effects of the new Prussian press law : —

      The ' Westdeutsche Zeitung' contains the following notification : — ' Our readers will have already concluded that this newspap > r , having been excluded from the right of transmission by the post office , cannot prolong its existence . . At the expiration of the present month the labours of its conductors will he suspended . Whether the ' Rheinisph Echo' will be continuedl as a magazine for history and the fine arts ' , will depend on the number of the subscribers who may announce . No . 136 of the ' W > : s !> deutsche Zeitung , ' and No . 32 of the . ' Rheinisch Echo , ' have been seized by order of the Ober-Procurator , and this for the eleventh time during the

      present quarter . Nearly the whole impression of the first edition of No . 13 ( 5 of this journal was seized b y the police inspector , Von SchUinetz , but afterwards the sheets were permitted to be issued . The 'Westdeutsche . Zeitung , ' and the 'Deutsche Volkshalle , ' agree entirely in the opinions contained in the leading article of the' Neuen Preus ; . Zsitung , ' upon the bureaucracy and its recent pranks . Whoever pays attention to tbe" various manifestations of public opinion upon the subject , of the new regulations , will be compelled to serious reflections upon the consequences of these partl y ridiculous , partl y revolutionary , proceedings . '

      DRESDEN , Junk 6 . —The Saxon ministry ; have followed up the sudden dissolution of the Saxon chambers with a series of stron g reactionary measures , measures which in fact completely ignorfl the existence of the constitution of 1848 . They are in traduced in a ministerial proclamation , which is accompanied by several ordinances , all published thu day before yesterday ( June 3 . ) The proclamation contains the reasons for dissolving tbe present chambers and re-convoking tbe old Assembl y of Estates on the basis of the constitution of 1831 , but in ; the form and composition of the extraordinary . Diet of 1848 . This Assembl y is to meet on the 1 st of . July next . ¦ ¦ V ' . ' .. ' "

      The several ordinances which accompany this proclamation require notice to be given to the police twenty-four hours before the assembly of every public meeting , at which policemen will be present ¦ whose orders must be strictl y obeyed . Associations for political or public purposes must draw up- cpdes of laws for the sanction of the authorities ; ; Gnly . those persons possessing civil ri ghts are to be ! permitted to join these associations .. The . civic girard is not to eslablish associations within its ranks !

      ter of surprise that the King ' shoiild venture to beard his peop le at the very mpraentwhen by finally withdraw | ng . jro th' the narrower union he can entertain no hope of assistance from Prussia , such as was afforded him in the month of jilay , 1849 , when Prussian troops , quelled the insurrection in Dresden . The most remarkable feature in the present cade is one that will appear unintelligible to a constitutional Eng lishman ; it is the re-assembling of a par . liaraent which was dissolved ei ghteen or twenty tnonths-ago , and since which two different parliaments have assisted in ruling the country . Mean , while Dresden and Leipzig remain perfectly quiet ; nor . is there the slightest appearance of danger , excepting in the double guards , the loaded cannon in the arsenal , and the , numerous patrols of infantry and cavalry moving about both towns .

      In the meeting of the deputies of the city of Leipzi g , held this morning , Mr . Henry Brockhaus moved the postponement of all other business in order that the Assembly might consider the position in which the government had placed the country . After condemning the objects and proceedings of the government , he proposed a resolution declaring the abolition of the Electoral Law of 1848 and the restoration of that of 1831 , as an unconstitutional , oppressive , and dangerous measure calculated to alarm aud corrupt b y its open violation of promises and contracts solemnly made . With the concurrence of the mover , the proposition was referred to a committee by a great majority .

      The Wurtemberg papers of the 3 rd inst . state that the Diet of that kingdom has been peremptorily prolonged from the 4 th to the 26 th inst . A certain motion , which M . Mobl proposed to make respecting the German question , is quoted as the principal reason for this measure . MAYENCE , June 9 . —The so-called ' Rhine-HesBian Monster-trial ' which has been going on for a long time at Mayence , and includes several hundred prisoners imp licated in the rebellion of last year , and accused of hi gh treason , was yesterday brought to a close . It being the first case of importance since the introduction of trial by jury ; as

      well as from the number of persons interested in the result , not only the court itself , aad the avenues leading to it , but the whole city ' was crowded , and steamers and railroads brought an immense influx to hear the verdict . The court opened at seven o ' clock in the morning , and the President immediately began summing up the evidence for and against the prisoners . His speech lasted four hours , and the jury then retired to consult , which occupied another four hours , when they gave notice to the jadge thtt they were read y to give their verdict . This was that all the prisoners are innocent of each and every one of the ninety-seven counts laid against them .

      The court immediately gave the necessary orders for the release of the prisoners , who were then set at liberty , and warmly congratulated by their anxious friends . It having been expected th&t some demonstrations of joy or anger would be made , the military governor of Mayence had previously taken the precaution of warning the public by a proclamation that he should allow of no demonstration which mi ght lead to a breach of the peace , and that any person so contravening would be arrested and locked up in the citadel . The warning had its effect , and the intelligence was quickly made known and received in every quarter with joy and satisfaction , but without infringing on the peace of the city .

      ITALY . Letters from the Romagna state that the pretended miracle of the Madonna of Rimini was a trick on the part of Borne monks , who were anxious to g ive the Pope a pretext for visiting the Legations , but , not having succeeded in that plan , tbe Virgin does not open her eyes so often , now as she ^ did formerly . Monsignor Bedim , accompanied by MonBignor Rat . testini , went to Rimini to see the miracle ; but , though they remained for three days , they were not indul ged with a sight of tbe miracle .

      The 'Genoa Gazette ' of the 4 th inst . states that a disturbance had taken place at Alberga , in consequence of the adoption of the new mode of getting in the taxes . A large bod y of peasants assembled , uttering cries of 'Down with the taxes ! ' 'Down with the regulations and the mayor ! ' They afterwards attacked theintendant ' s office , but therevenue officers succeeded in beating them off . Six men have been shot in consequence of a disturbance at Palermo .

      ; NAPLES , June 4—The state trials commenced on the 1 st ef the current month . There are forty , two prisoners , amongst whom are the ex-minister , Baron Poerio . Setterabrini , and other ex-deputies The court was crowded with spies and soldiers , which made it anything but pleasant for those who attended | on the painfully interesting occasion . The prisoners ' were all dressed in black , and their firm and courageous bearing clearly indicated ' peace within . ' The first day ' s proceedings closed by the crown lawyer demanding death for the whole

      fortytwo , as having' conspired against the sacred person of the King , ' by forrainj ? a sect called the Unita Italiana . At the present moment witnesses are being examined , whose revelations , when collected , will prove . in the public court what everybody in private knows , that the government invented the crimes of the accused through the medium of the paid denouncers , for the purpose of throwing into prison such men as would have opposed and perhaps prevented , the destruction of the constitution by that system of fraud and intimidation which has been so long carried on .

      GREECE . . Athens , May 28 . —We are all aVive preparing for the elections , and the . government , as usual , ia preparing . all its schemes to return Us partisans . The camarilla is hard at work . The bud get for 1850 shows an income of 20 , 670 , 285 drachmas , including the 3 , 835 , 473 drachmas , about one-fifth , ad . v anced by the three powers . The income for 1849 was estimated at 20 , 319 , 429 drachmas , and expense ! 19 , 540 , 173 drachmas ! This year the expenses are calculated at 20 , 304 , 016 drachmas , leaving a

      balance of 366 , 269 drachmas , or £ 13 , 081 in favour of the government . The public debts swallow up 5 , 735 , 594 drachmas ; civil lists 1 , 465 , 000 drachmas ; ministerial department , 11 , 139 , 894 . Div « rs payments and extraordinary expenses of 1 , 963 , 527 drachmas make up the total of the budget of 185 Q . On presenting it to the Chamber ihe Minister demanded a provisional credit for four months , until the budget be passed . Such a system of representative government is a perfect farce . Greece jb merely a plaything in tbe hands of the Bavarian and Austrian ministers .

      The people ' s ri ghts have been usurped for years . The public money has been squandered ; a system of corruption established ; crimes and immorality encouraged ; concessions and peculations tolerated , and yet the patience of the people of Greece has taught tiem to bear all these patiently , iu the ho j * of a happier future . Bri gandage still increases on the frontiers , ana the troops sent against the bri gands fraternise with them , and assist in the plundering .

      POLAND AND RUSSIA . The German journals contain rumours of a revolationary agitation having been manifested in St . Petersburg and Moscow , especially in the upper schools and among the students . The immediate conseqaenue of it has been an Imperial decree , prohibiting the natives of Poland from entering the hi gh Bchools of the two Russian capitals and Dorpat . It was even reported that these three establish , inunts wouldbe suppressed . Another confiscation of the estates of a political criminal had been

      published in Poland ; but it was distinguished from former political acts of the same kind by a notice to the creditors of the late proprietor to 8 end in their claima on him . Till now the practice has been to collect all debts due to the possessor of the confiscated property for the benefit of the Governtnent , bu < all demands of his creditors was rejected . The system has been very injurious to public credit in Poland , and it is believed that from consideration of its mischievous effects it has bceu abandoned .

      During the stay of the Emperor at Warsaw all the regulations of the police are enforced with the utmost SHveritv .

      DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES . The attempt on the part of the Duchies to conelude a peace by means of direct negotiations , has failed ; the Danes having obstinately refused to treat on the basis proposed by the three men of confidence , notwithstanding that it had received the sanction of the RuaBiau ambassador , Count Meyendorff . In the duchies the inhabitants expect the revival ef hostilities and anxiouBly hope that they may be comnmced b y the Danes , On several occasions the inhabitants of Kiel have been excited by the apu&K&wa off tircw port o ! several Danish men-of-war . On the 5 th mat . they were agnm disturbed by tne approach o { one lbe-of-battie ship , two frigates , and three large steamers . ( Continued to tU tmnthpagc )

Within the last few months Joseph has been mulcted in tho double postage of some 4 , 000 letters , which he had sent to various parties , and which have been returned to the Post-office . Although time was allowed him to pay the penalties , on a promise to discontinuo his malpractices , he has , nevertheless , continued to send letters through the Post-office in as great numbers aa ever , until the 7 th inst ., when an officer of the City effected his capture , and consignment to Giltspur-street Prison , on a warrant from the Treasury .
