Cheltenham ; dated January 22 nd , 1850 . - - ' Sib , — My eldest son , when about three years of , age , was afflicted with a glandular swelling in the neck , which after a short time broke out into an ulcer . An eminent medical man pronounced it as a very bad case of scrofula , and prescribed for a considerable time without effect . The disease then for years went oa gradually increasing in . virulence , > Vfhen besides the ulcer in the neck , another formed below the left knee , and a third under the eye , besides seVen others on the left arm , with a tumour between the eyes which w as expected to break . During the whole of the time my suffering boy had received the constant advice of the most celebrated medical gentlemen at Cheltenham , besides being for several months at the General Hospital

      FRANCE . QnSttanUf lut the motions of M . Moulin and Morie , relative to the peocedareto be adopted with cespect to tbe revision of the constitution , was ttken into consideration liy the Aisembly . The project recommended by the committee to whom < he matterbad been referred , provides in Alt . 1 , that all motions for revision shall he submitted to a committee , which shall prepare its report within s month , was then adopted .

      Tbe clause fixing the appointmentofthe . com . -firitteesin the bureaux at eight days after the pre--sentation of the first motion was withdrawn . ; M « 'fiantayra proposed two days . This , and other amendments of the . tame class , having been rejected , the article was adopted without indication of the delay . Art . 2 , provides that the rejected proposition eaunot be renewed until the expiration of three jnonths from the rejection . M . . Jules Yawe moved an amendment declaring that after rejection molions for the revision cannot be brought forward again . In developing this amendment , which he considered in conformity with the spirit of the

      111 th article of the constitution , he entered into s abort discourse upon the general question , and represented the majority as being really as divided as possible for all practical constructive purposes , and -united only to raise sgitation with a view of extinguishing the republic . M . Moulin answered Jules 2 tarce > and showed that his amendment was contrary to the constitution . The amendment was put to the vote ; rejected by a large majority . M . Dufsure voted with the majority ; General Gavaignae on the opposite side . It was insinuated by the majority that the Left did not venture to demand a fe&llot , lest the number of the minority should be Ibund below the number , of 188 , necessary to present tbe revision .

      After the rejection of amendments moved by -Sontayra and Bouhier De FEcluse , M . Vesin moved an amendment in favour of making a speedy report on the petitions in favour of revision . He reminded the house of the frauds which bad been detected on the occasion of the petitions against electoral reform , and wished that the hons ' e should 4 k enlightened as to the nature of the present petitions . His amendment having been rejected ,, the « rt « ein 5 fe of the project was put to the vote , and carried by a large majority .

      M . Leon Eiucher is actively employed in stimulating the municipal councils to supply as much as possible the failure of work in consequence of the suspension of private enterprise incidental to a political crisis . In order ' to this end he exhorts them to promote improvements of all kinds , with a view to the occupation of workmen thrown oat of employ . M . Faachec has applied to tbe municipa l council of the Seine to push the construction of the

      balies , which will involve an outlay of sixty mil . .-fipns , and to carry out the prolongation of the Rue de Rivoli . It is trne the city is forty-two millions in debt , but notwithstanding this , owing to the reproductive nature of these works , the municipality may on easy terms procure a loan from the Bank of France . The minister will propose a bill for the exemption of the newly-constructed houses in the continuation of the Kue de RWoli from taxation for twenty years .

      Among the petitions for the revision of the Coaatitution already presented to the Assembly , one of the most remarkable is that addressed by the Chamber of Commerce of Amiens . It calls on the Assembly to adopt prompt and efficacious measures to put an end to the present disastrous position of affairs . The manufacturing establishments in . Amiens , formerly so active , are now working short time only . The value of their produce is declining , and there 13 no demand for it , although the stock on hand is superabundant . Nevertheless the operatives

      are animated by the best spirit , and the most perfect tranquillity prevails in consequence of the laudable efforts of the manufacturers to prevent tbe closing of their establishments , and the consequent loss of employment to their workmen . The present Crisis is caused by the apprehension which prevails among mercantile men that they may meet the same losses in 1852 which they did in 1848 , and they abstain from engaging in any mercantile speculation . Such astateof disquietude is incompatible With the prosperity of France .

      The President of the Republic went to Somerre on Sunday to open the new railway , and was received by the whole of the authorities and the Clergy , and was saluted with the most lively acclamations of 'ViveNapoleon' by the populace , who bad assembled in a radius of twenty leagues , ^ he President was accompanied by MM . Dupin , *« Jby de la Meurthe , the Ministersof the Interior , of Public Works , and of War . He received at the lailway all the deputies and the-anthorities , and afterwards reviewed the National Guard , amidst enthusiastic cries of 'Vive Napoleon / « ViTC le President . ' After the review he assisted at a splendid collation .

      The President was well received at Dijon . At the conclusion of his speech , at the mayor ' s dinner , ae said : — « I seize upon the present occasion to open to my fellow-citizens the inmost feelings of "V ^ vt C V * « nterins on a new P ha 8 e of our political life , and all France is petitioning for the levision of the constitution . I wait with full con . fidence this manifestation of the national will , and * he decision of the Assembly which will be in

      , spured by the Bole desire of conferring happineB and order upon the people . Since succeeding to the Presidency , I have ever disregarded mere personal interests in presence of the wants of We , ant the most unjust and violent attacks have been ande to drive me from my peaceful intentions . Whatever duties theuafcon may impose U will find me ready to accept , and , believe me , France shall not perish in my bands . '

      This speech has occasioned a perfect tempest in the conservative press , or rather by the two speeches the speech pronounced and the sneech Jff * ^ rence between the real and ofJRT" V " ? mainIy in one « ** S Of which M . LeonFaucher procured the suppression . The President said that he had never lacked the SSZ £ \ . the Ass r ? - ofteB « 5 S-K tXSSiSS mainfaiDed ; * would not

The « Constitutional' alone is satisfied , and expresses its contentment through trg 0 I ? M orean of iL ? ranier de Cassaigriac . The Assembly was in a great state of excitejnent , on Monday last , about this speech : and ^^« tta 9 Mig ;

      shook hands with two of the ministers , MM . Leon Faucheraad Buffet . After Larochejaquelin had proposed to extend the same benefit to the soldiers who had been wounded in combating the revolution of 1830 , and Colonel Charras bad made a speech which , excited frequent murmurs , . General Changarnier , making , evidently a covert allusion to . the- President ' s , manifestation at Dijon , said that the country had nothing io fear from usurpations ; that the spirit of the army was to be trusted ; and , in order to feel reassured ; it was sufficient to demand where was the pretext ( or

      enthusiasm . ( This blow at the Elysee , after the general bad shaken hands with . the two ministers , pro * duced-muchBensatibn . ) There was no fear " of France being subjected to the misery and shame of the Csesars , successively imposed by debauched Pre . torian soldiers . ( Immense sensation . ) Its discipline was founded . on such solid basis that nobody could prevail on the soldiers to attack the laws or march against the Assembly . No man could find a battalion , a company , or a chief to obey him . ' ' RepiesentativeBof the nation " / added the General , « you may deliberate in peace . ' ( Brayo and applause . )

      M . Leon Faucher , Minister of the Interior , could not help deploring that the army should be made a ground for political discussions . He accepted for no portion of the government the lesaon the General had intended to give it .-There sas but one conspiracyin which the governmen t gloried , that of devotedness to the country . The General bad spoken of Pretonan . soldiers ,. M . Fauchet would tell him that tbe army was national , and would

      never servers a stepping-stone , to ; ambition . The m ™* tr > . . waclusion , declared that without military discipline all government was impracticable . After a few words of General LebretoS in favour of General Gourgauds amendment , the discussion was cosed , and a division having been called for , l 5 ? P eared ' £ or the amendment 295 ; against it , S ' .,. v ° t ndment was accordingly rejected , and the Assembly afterwards decided that the bill should go to a third meeting .

      The President subsequently announced that M . Desmousseaux de Givre bad applied for leave to address interpellations to the cabinet relative to the speech delivered by the President of the Republic at Dijon , on the 1 st inst ., and asked on what day the ministry wished . to fix the interpellations . 'Immediately , ' replied M . Lson Fauciur . M . de Givre said that he had applied for leave to put questions to the ministry , relative to an insulting and calumnious speech ior the Assembly , said to have been pronounced at Dijon , where he heard M . Faucher disclaim , on the part of the government , all participation in plots and conspiracies . After hearing that declaration , and that made by General Cbangarnier , which was so well understood by the Assembly , he withdrew his demand .-at the same

      time that he requested the Assembly to consider a proposition he bad deposited long ago , to the ' effect of interdicting thb presence of oulcers of the National Assembly at public festivities . - ¦ . M . Dupin repUed , that the Assembly was only represented at such solemnities when it appointed deputations for the purpose . M . Piscatory then asked if a sentence insulting for the Assembly had . been pronounced . He was aware of the difficulty of arriving at a proof ; but he thought that any colleague , or even a minister who heard it , being questioned as to its authenticity , was bound to telUtetiYAh . M . Dapia observed , that he had no right to interpellate other ministers .

      M . Leon Faucher here said : 'The speech had been published in the Moniteur . ' It is the only official version . The cabinet recognises no other . ' M . de Givre subsequentl y asked , the ministers if the following sentence was in the speech : The Assembly lent me its co-operation for all : measures of repression , but it denied it to me for the measures of benevolence I had proposed in the interest of the people . ' . M . Piscatory here interfered , ana declared that the existence of the sentence having been denied by the cabinet , the latter was entitled to credit , and the Assembly should proceed no further . He accordingly moved the simple order of the day which was adopted by a considerable majority , and amidst great agitation the sitting broke up . The Mountain abstained from voting .

      GERMANY . By a circular of M . Manteufiel , the old provincial Diets which existed before 1848 ate revived provisionally . This has caused , great sensation . The step is considered as a virtual abrogation of the constitution . It ib supposed that conflicts will arise between the provincial states and the chambers , audit « even stated that most restive conduct may be expected from the provincial states of the Rhine and of East Prussia . . .

      A letter from Frankfort-on-the-Main dated May 30 th says- « Formally opened on the 15 th of the month , the German Diet holds to-day its first sitting for business ; and with this act closes the circle in which the affairrof Germany have been moving since the days . of March 1848 ., The old Diet exi 8 ts again , in the same shape , and in several instancea in the persons of the same worn-out , toothtess , pigtail-wearing diplomatists of the old scbool . ^ « 5 . f several are in truth so ridiculous and ththeir

      that Von der Pforthen and his colleagues will obtain the sum they seek . ¦ - '" BELGIUM . J , In the . Belgiau Senate on Thursday , the 29 th % C Baron de ' Royier asked ; for explanations fbmthe Minister on the Ministerial Crigis . M . Rogier replied that he had nothing to add td . the explanations already given in the Chamber of Representatives , but that the gentlemen called on by his'Majeaty to form a cabinet could give information . , M . Dumon-Dumqrtier , the president , Wing quitted the chair , said that- he had had the honour to be called on by the King to form a cabinet , but had declined toundertake the task , because-he-did not think anew

      one was necessary , inasmuch U the hostile vote against the ministry was a mistake . The majority , be said , had not changed its policy or principles , and if the ministry were to consult it on any other sub- " ject than that on which the hostile vote had been given , it . would obtain all its support . He concluded by calling , on the ministers to put an end to theEtateof uncertainty by again taking possession of their portfolios . M . Rogier thanked M . Dumon-Dumortier for his observations , but said the cabinet

      considered itself bound to persistih itsresolution . The position in which it ; tad- been placet ! was not changed , and consequently it could not hope to realise its programme , as it could not obtain the resources , necessary for re-establishing the financial equilibrium and undertaking public . works . . The Minister concluded by expressing regret that M . Dumon-Dumortier had not accepted the mission conferred on him by the King , and said that ihe exministers would have been happy to have seconded him by all their' efforts . The matter then dropped .

      . PORTUGAL . . The Queen has dissolved the Chamber of Deputies , and convoked the CorteB for the 15 th of September , for the purpose of the revision of the Constitution . The Moritrose has arrived with dates from Lisbon to the 29 th of May , and . Oporto the 30 th of May . She brings fifty , passengers .:, The news from Lisbon announces that a number of obnoxious individuals , heretofore in personal attendance ' on the Queen , bad been removed by the new administration , and more popular persons had been appointed in their stead . Obnoxious . civil gqvernora and administrators of districtsi and subordinate . officers

      had also been dismissed . The conduct of all persons heretofore ; in authority , is to be investigated and any person proved to have been guilty of . cor ' ruption ; or improper conduct is to be dismissed . Cabralist military officers have also ' been dismissed . The militia battalion , called the volunteers of the charter , is' to be re-organised or disbanded . : The law against the press , passed last ' August , has been abrogated . . The previous law is now iniorce , but this is considered to be too stringent , and tbe press is dissatisfied . Saldanha is still very popular , and is zealous in carrying out the principles he proclaimed . The Cabral Cortes has been dissolved ,

      and an extraordinary general Cortes will meet on the 15 th inst . . This'has given ' great satisfaction to the people . The conduct . of Costa , Cabral in pleading poverty on board the English packet is much canvassed . It isudeclared ; that he is enormously rich , and that he had above one thousand pounds in his pocket when he escaped from Portugal . All the peers proscribed' by Don Pedro , because they were considered Miguelites , have been restored lo their prerogative and privileges , provided they will swear to . maintain \ Vde present dynasty . All persons who . assisted Saldanha in the revolution have been rewarded and promoted .

      At Oporto . a regiment .. of Cagadores , at the instigation of the Cabralists , attempted to get up a reactionary , movement on the- 28 tb ult ., but the troops and populace rose ; and threatened to fire on them , and the regiment returned to ' theirdaty . ' . The government have formed : a commission , composed of the most enlightened and influential men of all parties , to frame a law . to regulate ' the approaching elections ; this has given -much satisfaction , as a diversity of opinions exists upon ' the subject of direct and indirect election . ' The principle of the law , it is generally conceived , will he in favour of indirect election , for this alleged reasonthat as education is very backward'in this country , a body of electors might fix . upou a man for a deputy ht be

      who mig , like themselves , totally ignorant , and perfectly ; unfit to take part in any legislative mea . sure ; therefore , by forming an electoral college , the electors returned to that college could with more propriety chose a . man qualified in every resped for the important end in view ; but as on all former occasions great corruption was manifest by the electors being obliged , ta come * to Lisbon , and here elect their deputy , the colleges are to be formed in the respective localities ; and the " deputies to the Cortes chosen simultaneously on the same day , so as to avoid even the . appearance or tampering . The qualification , it is also understood will be the bare fact of being a noteholder , or , in-other words , as being more applicable to i this country , having a separate fireplace or chimney . ' . '

      Three regiments of infantry , three , squadrons of cavalry , and a battalion . of infantry , pronounced against Saldanha at EWas and Montemar on the 31 st ult . The 7 th military division in Estramadura has refused to obey St . Antas * ¦ declaring itself for the Quen and against the revolutionists .

The representatives of different parties were about to hold meetings previous to the assembling of tho Cortes . .-.. ' . ' ¦ .. . ¦'¦ ... The appointment of the Marquis . de Viluma , chief of the absolutist and protectionist party , as president of the . Senate , has tended to weaken public confidence in the ministry . The party of Narvaez conspire . with unflagging activity against the cabinet . Sartorius has been received at a private interview by Queen Christina ; and Ventura ! de . la Vega has started upon a secret mission to Paris , with despatches from Count St . Louis to Navvaez . Hence rumours are rife of a ministerial crisis .

      The Heraldo'has been acquitted on its second trial , as well as on the first , while ' the ' Clamor .

The students are not yet pacified , and will neither return to lectures nor pay the newly . imposed fees ; There , have been disturbancea also in Granada , and the discontent of many provinces at , their increased expenditure tends to augment the feeling of insecurity ' . On the whole , the situation is full of anomalies and difr ficalties , which will present a still more formidable array on the opening of . the Cortes .
