      -VFRiNCE . The director ard editor of a monarchical f sper , the Courtier de la Sotnme , ' hate been acquitted by the jury of a charge of hating . excited hatred and contempt of the Republican form of government . The Democrats have obtained a majority in the municipal elections of the communes of Apt Yaucluse-and Granse Bnuches da Rhone . Despatches from Valence ( Drome ) state that , of the twenty persons implicited in the riots of Bonrg

      Saint Andeole some weeks since , sixteen have been acquitted by the jury . The remaining four , in whose favour extenuating circumstances' were found , have been sentenced , two to two years' imprisonment , one to one year , and one to six months .- The riot was a serious one , one man having been killed by the Prefect acting in his own defence , and the Captain of Gendarmerie , who bad been decorated by the government , has since theni committed suicide , having allowed himself to be too much affected by malicious rumours about his not having merited the . honour by his conduct on that day . - - .- .

      The committee , on the Municipal Bill has adopted , after an animated debate , a resolution deciding on the mode of electing mayors , who are to be chosen by the municipal councils , and the highest taxed Citizens of the commune . The' Moniteur * publishes a decree of the President of the Republic , making numerous changes among the judicial functionaries in the departments . It is rumoured that the President and General -Changarnier are about to become reconciled again , Iroth having seen the error of their wav .

      SWITZERLAND . The Swiss journals announce that on Saturday last the French refugees residing at Lausanne , were summoned to the Prefecture , and told that the Federal government had given orders that they should be sent into England , or , if they preferred it , that they might go to America .

      PRUSSIA . The Staatsanwalt having determined that a prosecution should be commenced : against M . Harkort , a deputy , for printing a pamphlet called 'Burger trad Bauerh Brief ( which was never published ) , the usual application was made by the Court to the Second Chamber for permission to proceed against him ; the Law and Justice . Commission . of the Chamber have reported in favour of leave being given , and the prosecution will immediately proceed . . ¦ The Dresden Conferences , it is said , are now abandoned , and a return is to be made to the old constitution of 1815 . . . AUSTRIA .

      It is not believed that the contest with Prussia had come to a conclusion . Un the contrary , it is believed that the difference is . one of principle rather than sower ; and that Austria will insist on , and Prussia oppose , the adoption of a high and arbitrary jnle of Government . ; ¦ . It is not likely that the Emperor of Austria will isit Agram , the late riot in that city having exc ited his displeasure . - A strong ultramontane feeling prevails in Austria . Count Leo Thau ' s decree in favour of the hierarchy and Papal supremacy is accepted and enforced with great eagerness . The depreciation of the paper currency begins to tell heavily upon the people of Austria

      DENMARK . Onr advices from Copenhagen are of the 2 nd inst . The papers publish the text of the propositions which will be submitted to the Aswmbto of Notables . They declare the integrity of the Danish Monarchy under the same government representation—fleet and flag . The case of Lauenberg , however , is reserved for future consideration . The Duchies of Holstein and Lauenburgh will xeraain part of the Germanic Confederation . They will have their own Diets ; in all State questions they will be represented in the Council . Tne Duchy of Schleswig will have its separate Diet and Administration . < Certain institutions will belong to the two Dn-« hies of Schleswig and Holstein .. . .

      SWEDEN-AND NORWAY . The Chamber of Nobility in Sweden was occupied at Stockholm on the 27 th nlL , with & proportion tending to accord to the Jewa the same civil and political rights as are enjoyed b y Dissenting Christians in Sweden . One member only , Count de Hartmannsdorf , opposed the proposition , and in particular , dwelt on the fact that the Jews haWtually practise usury . A great number of the principal members defended the proposition , and M . Weidenhjelm showed from statistical tables that for the last forty years no Jew was condemned in Sweden for -an £ great crime . The proposition was , however , re . jected by seventy-eight votes to eighteen .

      More disturbances have taken place in Norway . AtDrontheim , on the 16 th nit ., about 300 persons assembled in front of an hotel , in which the respect , able inhabitants of the town were having a ball , in honour of the Queen ' s birthday , and began crying « Down with the burghers If They afterwards sent a volley of stones against the windows , and not only broke every pain , but injnred several persons in the xoom ; one lady .. was . seriously cut in the head , another in the breast . The rioters then attempted to force their way into the ball-room , but the gentlemen resisted them , and succeeded in driving them ante the street . A detachment of soldiers came up , and arrested , some . of the rioters ... The-latter dispersed about town , and broke the windows of sev * ral houses . It was not until two o ' clock that order was completely re-established . The next evening the disturbances were renewed , and were of a more

      serious character . About 1 , 000 persons assembled and were proceeding to different acts of violence , when the police and the military appeared . The former summoned the people to disperse , and caused the Riot Act to . he read . The crowd , however , refeed to go away , whereupon the military charged them three times . The people resisted , and four national guards were cut in the head with sharp instruments . Several regiments of cavalry and artillery were accordingly marched into the town from the adjacent garrisons , and , after some time , succeeded in re-establishing order . All suspeeted houses were minutely searched , and abouf 320 noters were arrested . At Meldal , three leagues from Drontheim , there wereaho serions disturbances , but they were put down .

      The ' Armonia of Palermo gives an account Of a most violent . storm , followed by an ; inundation , which occurred there on the 11 th and 12 th nit .

The preacher , a Franciscan father , was in the pulpit , holding forth to attentive listeners ,, when a loud explosion-threw the whole congregation into the greatest alarm . A bomb burst in one of the aide antes--of the church , but providentially without injuring any one . In the rush to the doors several persona were thrown down arid received , severe contusions .: The preacher did not quit his pulpit , but in a loud voice exhorted the audience to remain quiet , and after the . confnsion of the first alarm had subsided he resumed and finished his sermon . Nothing has been discovered relative to the personsconcerned in . the matter .

      His Holiness , . the Pope , has ordered the dead body ofthe brigand . chieftain . Passatore to be carried about in triumph , and his Woody corpse to be exposed to the- affrighted . villagers . Property to an immense amount was found on the person of the robber chieftain when he was shot ,- and a couple of gendarmes , whom be had wounded , expired from the effects of their last encounter , with him , whilst his body was being carried about in triumph . ' . A Constantinople letter of the 13 th ult ., in the Risorgimento' of . Turin , states , that public attention has . been greatly excited there , by the discovery of an . immense treasure of Greek manuscript ; , of the highest antiquity , found by a learned Greek : of the name of Siinonides , in a cave situated at the foot

      of Mount Athos . According to this account , the importance of this discovery , is incalculable , since it brings to light a vast quantity of celebrated works quoted . by various ancient , writers , and hitherto deemed . entirely , lost . They : furnish , as may be imagined , an extensive list of proper names , calculated to throw great light upon many obscure periods of history . Among these precious volumes , which are composed of very thin membranes ( the nature of which is not stated ) , filled with microscopic characters , Borne are calculated to . give a complete interpretation of hieroglyphic writing , the fortunate discoverer having already successfully applied them to the interpretation ofthe inscriptions engraved on the obelisk of the hippodrome at Constantinople . .

      The third trial of General G : Henderson , accused of being concerned in the Cuba Expedition , resulted in the . inability of the'jury to agree on a verdict . Eleven were for acquittal , and . one for conviction . It was then moved by the district attorney that a noUepnsequi he entered , in . this case , and in each of . the others , on account . of the difficulty of empannelling an impartial jury . o r of stronger proof than had been already presented . The government he maintained , had discharged its duty in ' endeavouring to execute , the laws . A nolle prosequi was accordingly entered , and the prosecution thus ended . '

Under-these favourable circumstances he sought , the hand of a young lady of the same place of good family arid untarnished reputation , but on applying to the curate , was told that he could not be married in Spain unless he ' turned Catholic . .. The Englishman ' s love for his future bride induced him Jo consent to this sacrifice , although . ynthjepugnanqe , under .. the supposition that it would put : an end . to all difficulties . But this did not turn out to be the case ; the curate

      now enacted that he should obtain the paternal consent , and the young man wrote accordingly to England ; the answer was , that if he changed his religion , he would he disinherited and completely abandoned . In this terrible dilemma he proceeded to Barcelona , and after consulting the English consul there , was duly married by that functionary in accordance , with the consular marriage act of 1849 , This step taKen , the happy pair returnea home with the certificate of their nuptials , and pasBport en regie . For a time they lived together unmolested ; but their happiness did not last long . The curate , . enraged at what ' had occurred , complained to the bishop ,, who ordered the separation of the bride and bridegroom . They refused , to obey his mandate / and he then had . recourse to the civil governor of the province , who directed the alcalde

This : official , however ,, ' confined himself to giving them notice , . and was hv : consequence prosecuted with the Englishman and his wife . The former had recourse to his consul , who reported the affair'to the British minister at Madrid , ' who , ; in his 'turn , applied to the SpanisK goy ? rnnient for redress . Lord Palmer fit on had' passed various cbmmumcations upon the subject to our , government , which has referred it to th ' e ' Royal Council . . It appears that the ministers of the interior , of foreign affairs , and grace and justice , have given contrary opinion ? , and that the Royal Council has decided that the separation shall take * place until a dispensation is obtained from the Bishop to enable the , curate to solemnise ' the marriage - according to the Roman Catholic ritual .

He was brought to trial for fourteen murders j and condemned to deatb . The Queen ' was at first averse to- sign the ,, death-warrant , but at the entreaty of the Minister , of Justice she atlength con : senled . The procuerur' of SNapoli , where the prisoner , was-confined , wrote to the Minister of Juatice that Kaburinos wag ill , that he would pro " bably die in a few days , and solicited that the sen " tence should be commuted into imprisonment for life .

The Minister

      of Justice , who was among the number alluded to , proposed to the council of Ministers that a commis ^ sion should be sent to Napoli j to inquire into the merits of the case . This was done ,,. and it was ascertained that the prisoner , though ill , was in no danger .
