He elicited more applause than his predecessors, and his flashes of Irish wit and eloquence were received with approbation. L. F. Tasistro was announced, and he said that he ‘was in Pars during the three days of July, 1830. He raid that he considered this to be fortunate, as it was always fortunate to witness the downfall of despotism. But the people were deprived of their right and lawful expectationt—tbey were cheated. The causes which brought about the revolution of 1848 are widely dis- nimilar to those of 1330. Ireland and Spain are admira- bly attuged for the occasion. The di tiems of Austria and Russia will feel the shock ; the Turk himself will tremble It was the fire of our altar that lighted up the juneral pile of despotism abroad; it was our sun that warmed up the hearts of the people abroad and made them swell forfreedom. May the fireburn,and may the sun shine, until the wasteful, besotted, and bigotted aristocracy of the world shall have been banished for- ever. itis the duty of Americans to sympathize with the oppressed masses im ‘every land, aud they bave a right to hold the beacon light on the highest mountain top,that ite bright effulgence may be seen at any distance.

Mr. Ritcwie rose to offer a resolution commenda- tory of the conduct of Mr. Rush. Dr. Houston attempted to throw a wet blanket on the fSentleman, by asking him to withdraw the resolution, and let the objects of the meeting be confined to the pur- pose for which it was called— sympatLy for France. Mr. Rircrie said he did not see ion we could more earnestly express this than by standing by the represen- tative of the country. (Applause) The question is, whether we shail stend by him who stood by France. (* Question,” “ question,’ and applause ) And now a class of speakers appeared, not provided. for by the committee.

It appears to me, however, Mr. Speaker, that the apprehension of those who think they foresee the ai ye Cha sapere nee rime at et Persons but imperfectly eretan o preseni state of Europe. What does the history of France teach us? The revolution of 1789, although abused in many respects, yet accomplished ene thing of vast and preponderating impo:tance. It schooled the people of France—pethips in lessons of biood — in ideas and the love of liberty, which, however. often repressed, must eventually, and atmo distant day, Tins to the fruition of maturity and permanence. pot that ution ocourred, France now, perhaps, would be less competent for a republio— perhaps the late revolution would not hi oceurred atall. One thing quite certain, that F 1s now arrived at a stage | geveral improvement and enlightenment which must prevent her from relapsioginto permanent despotism — which must ere long replace every form of despotism by freo institutions. Besides this one great advantage se- cured by ths revolution of 1769, many others incidental thereto were also achieved. The monopoly ef military rank by the ancient nobility—the right of primogeni- ture in the deecent of property, were avolished ; letters de cachet were suppressed, aad perfect individual equality ostablished in the administration of pub- tio justice. AJl this, and more, wi accomplish- ed. And who gehall say that the work thus pean pe * bere will not be gloriously contum- mated? ‘ho i say that France, now instructed by the experience of and stimulated by partial success, will not persevere until her liberties are estab- lished upon a firm popular basis? For one, sir, | firmly believe, as | religiously hope, that such will be the result. And what, sir, the late argurances for this pinior What has France lately done towards the accomplish- ment of this great object? 1 may answer, much, sir— and that much ae gloriously in form asin effect. Goad ed by the atious and tyrannical censorship exercised by the government over the freedom of the press, free dom of discussion, and the right of the people pescea- bly to assemble and consult together fur the public good, France determined to vindicate her rights, peacea- bly if she could, forcibly if she must. Pursuant- the people of Paris appointed a day for a@ great reform banque’ public meeting for the peaceable discussion of gtievances of the people, and the best means of redressing them. That dey was the 22d of February, a day which I hope will be bere- after as sacred to the cause of French liberty, as it is in Awerica tothe birth of the father of American indepeu- dence. The prefect of roice, and the commander of the national guards, issued their proclamations prohibiting the meeting. But upon the day appointed, large masees of people were seen making first towards the piace of rendezvous, and aiterwards towards the Chamber of Deputies, there to prefertheir complaints. The govern- ment, equally determined, directed a large body of the troops against the people ; and thus, by force of arms, drove them about the Chamber.— The opposition deputies moved the impeachment of ministers, and declared their purpose to re- sign their » if the motion should be rejected And thus ended the first act of the drama. On tne 23d of February, what had been commotion on the previous day, now became insurrection, in which it was quite evident that s considerable portion of the Nations! Guards sympathized, while another portion of them was employed against the people, and at some expense of blood. The people demanded of the editor of the Na- tionnel,a newspaper in the interest of the people,that he should see that their liberties were not again “played” with—a noble tribute to the majesty and power of a fres and faithful a a gins also demanded ** reform,” and the dismissal of mivisters—the min- isters resigned; but it wastoo late. And thusended the second act of the drama. Ou the 24th, what had been insurrection now became revolution. The King abdicated the crown in favor of his grand- son, the Count de Paris, and nomisated the Duke de Nemours for rogent; but the Chamber of Deputies ro- jected him, and also the Duchess of Orleans. ‘The peo- le aimed a provisional government. The king jeft France, and, from the last information, is in Eg: land. The le bear his shattered throne slong the streets, i g the song of liberty, and calling anon for “a republic on the model of the United States.” And thus passed away the proudest and most gorgeous throne of Europe, as the baseless febric of @ vision; thus ended the grand drama in successful revolution. And what now followsthe revolution? Do the people prove true to them-elves? Do the wisdomand energy of their mea- surer falsify the imputations of the enemies of popular government? Letussee. Among decrees of the provi- sional government and subordidate authorities | find the following published in the New York Herald:— 1. Interdiction of the meeting of the ex-chamber of Peers. 2. All political prisoners to be liberated, &o. 8. Dissolution of the Chamber of Deputies; consti- tution of « republic ; every citizen to be a national guard ; the liberty of the press gusrantied, and freedom ot thought recured. 4. National Assembly to meet on the 20th of April, ‘and decree constitution. Population to be the basis of election. Representatives of the people fixed at 900, kc. Suffrege to be ditect and universal, Kc. Now, sir, if I might be allowed to moralise upon this grand phenomenon, what should I say? 1 should say, sir, that it wi e natural and necessary result of co: flictions, elements, and principles. For a long time the principle of democratic numbers has been undermining the antegonist principles of aristocracy and regal thority throughout Europe, and at length in Fi th tere and blood-stained edifice of benighted Armies, ani throne, and courts hay pt away,*as an atom, by the popular brestb. The revolution of France is mot merely the triumph of the muititude over the unequal resistance of onc man. Far more. It is the triumph of freedom over ty- ranpy—of truth over error—humanity over inhumauity Yes; itis the distinct and authentic anpuaciation of the great and inestimable truth, that the time is now ra ee. Spproaching, when, in Europe, military force must wy to moral force—when kings must bow to the supe- Hor majesty of ihe people—wben the mostes of Europe only her will it to be free. Franee, if she should maintain and mature the fruits of her revolution, will tise with salient to the ascendant position and in- fluence that will belong to her as the leading republic of Europe. She will be emabled to extend the con- quest of her free principles far beyond the flight of her les in the days of the almost romantic triumphs of her great captain. Already, Italy, Den-ark, Portugal, d Prussia are awakening from the spathy of centuries; and who shall ray that the example of France will not hasten the time when all these countries ball be enrolled upon the blaszoned list of treedom? | need not say, sir, that 1 do not bear towards Louis Philippe any feeling of ill will; on the contrary, I respect him ae * man, for his intelligence and many virtues, and now in hi retirement, | would rympathize in his private afflictions.

Mr. Hasxee was getting sick and tired of the con- tinual thrusting of the subject of slavery io this cham- ber, and he beloved, before God, that those who bring it forward do more than any others to perpetuate it, and to destroy the influence of this“ model republic.” Mr. J. Ro Incensone aeid that it well becsme us to offer cur congratulations to all the countries of the world which partal the spirit of liberty.

Mr. Giddings then spoke of slavery im the District of Colum- bia, and the traffic in human flesh, and advocated free- dom everywhere. Mr. Baviy deprecated the subject of slavery. as sought to be engeatten on the resolutions. This eught to be a matter of national rejoicing, instead of domestic dis- cord. He: lludsd to the decree of the French govern- menut—that steps be takem to abolish slavery in the French colonies. Mr. C.J Inoxnsov, was permitted to say, that if bo was not mistaken, the original su; jon came from M Arego; but it was afterwards withdrawn, discovering thet it would have a icious influence in France. It ‘was amero suggestion, and nothing moro. ie Mr. Barty was glad of the explanation, though ho did not so understand the matter.

Wasnincron, April 3, 1848, Oa the opening of the court this morning, Mr. Joseph H. Bradley rose and sald :--Moy it{please your Honors— Before the court proceeds with the regular business, | would, if the court please, beg to present a petition for a hateas corpus. Judge Moxsei--Mr. Bradley, you will please read it to the court. ‘The following petition was read by Mr. Bradley :—~ To the Honerable the Judges of the Circust Court of the Distriot of Columbia:— The petition of John Nugent respectfally showeth that he is held in custody and in close confinement by Robert Beale, of the city of Washington, in the said District, without any authority or warrant of law; that the said Robert Beaie hath been required to exhibit to your peti- tfoner, and to furnish him with scopy of the paper, wri ting, or authority, if any he hath, under and by which he pretends to any right to hold your petitioner in his said custody; and counsel of your petitioner, Jos H Bradley, hath also demanded the same of the said Robert Beale, and he hath refused to exhibit it, or to give your pie or his said counsel a copy thereof, if any such hath, aud hath further refused to permit your peti tioner to depart trom hisssid custody. Your petitioner. therefore, prays your Honors to grant to him the writ of habeas corpus, returnable immediately before your Honors. requiring the said Robert Beale forthwith to bring your petitioner before you, and that be may be ry igned) Jos. H. Braptey, Attorney, &o. District of Columbia, Washington County, to wit : Be it known that on this first day of April, 1848, be- fog yom weer prebasien poo rptpemwenrg ye e county aforesaid, personally came an Seeeenooe Nagent, who being Feat duly sworn according to law seys the facta stated in the eregct petition are true (Signed) JOS. W. BECK, J.P. [seau} Mr. Brap.ey—If the Court please, Mr. Coxe appears for the parties on the other side. Judge Morse.i—-There is no objection, I suppose, to the issuing of the writ. Mr. R. 8. Coxx—I do not know, may it Court, that there oan be any objection at this stage of the proceedings, I do not know thet any objection can be wi — the issuing of the writ of habeas corpus. but after the return shall have been made on the writ. then, I suppese, will be the proper time to raise objections It is well known, | believe, that the party petitioning is in the custody of the Sergeant-at-Arms of the Senate of the United States, under authority of a warrant of the Senate, issued for an alleged contempt by the petitioner Mr _ Beale (the Sergeant-at-Arme) a) irs here official- ly, by the order of the Senate, and I sppear for him. | wor however, suggest, that the Court potpoas the re- turn of the writ until to-morrow; by that time, the par- ties may be able to shew that this party is held under proper authority and by order of the Senate. | think this is proper, because the petition is silent upon the fact of a warrant being issued by the Senate. If this (era on the petition, the case might now be argued, jut in order that these matters msy appear on the re- turn, I hope the return of the writ will be postoned till to-morrow, and then we can the whole subject. Judge Moasxiu—Mr. Bradley, they are entitled to three eturm of the writ In a criminal case, may it please your , | know that they wor be entitled to three days, under the statute; but this is different question Ihave no objection, however, to the postponement of the return till to-morrow. Judge Crancu— Let the habeas corpus issue as prayed, returnable to-morrow morning, st 10 o'clock. Battiore, April 4, 1848; The Eastern and Southern Mails—The Greek Slave—The Broken and Breaking Banks—Ma- ryland Politics, §c. The mail from Philadelphia and the East,which formerly arrived here at 10 o’clock at night, andimmediately proceeded South, does not ar- rive now until 6 o’clock in the morning, and there lays in our post{ofiice 18 hours before re- suming its journey. I see no mention made of a change in the departure of the Bay line south: to meet this new arrangement from the south, Tlearn that the Greek Slave has arrived in Baltimore, and will be exhibited in a few days at Carroll Hall. There is much anxiety to see it, and I doubt not that it will be extensively visited. The Havre de Grace bank notes were yester- day refused, not only by our dealers, but the brokers declined to buy them at eny price. The Mineral bank notes are selling at 60 cents on the dollar, and one of our dealers is still re- ceiving them in exchange for goods. There is one good thing that results from these suspen- sions, and that is, they immediately forfeit their charter, and must go into liquidation. The le- gislature not meeting for two years will also give time for a full examination before a proposition can be made for a renewal of their charters. The whole number of deaths in Baltimore during the past week was 79, of which number Al were males, and 38 females. Consumption as usual carried off 16, and scarlet fever 9. ‘The Hutchinson Family make their first ap- pearance in Baltimore on Thursday evening. Politics have again settled down in moody silence in Maryland ; all parties being apparently “in the dumps.” Although Mr. Polk was first nominated in the Convention Py John Ketulewell, our democratic sheriff, the Baltimore demo- cracy dread his re-nomination, as well as the nomination of Mr. Buchanan. The Whigs are also unsettled. If Polk or Buchanan are nomi- nated @ey want Harry Clay. If General Cass is nominated they want General Taylor. So as matters stand there is a disposition with all par- ties, except the independent Taylor men, to re- main quiet. jeare the Privavetrnta, April 4, 1848. Arrest of Model Artists—Stabbing, §c., §c. The latest excitement in our city is the arrest of a troup of model artists, last evening, by the police. It was a private exhibition, which has been going on for some time in a house fronting on Chesnut street, the entrance to which was from Exchange Place. When the officers en- tered, two of the female demi-nudities were re- posing in lascivious attitudes upon the pedestal, which was in motion, exposing their various points to the eager gaze of the audience. They were cased in flush-colored silk netting, tight to the person, without any superfluous drapery.— The only prisoners made were five females, whose charms by day-light could not be boasted of, a long career of dissipation having broken them down. ‘The police were not in sufficient jorce to capture any of the audience, who fled in double quick time on the alarm being given, when the nymphs were disturbed from their re. ewmbent attiades. The Mayor's office was thronged this morning With an eaxious crowd, enge to Witnese the hearing of the case, whigh it was expected would be but all were disappointed except a few friends of the officers, who were conducted into the room where the prisoners were confined, ostensibly to look at some stolen clothing hung up there, but in reality to get a glimpse of the models. ‘They had been finitted to resume their proper clothing before leaving the place of exhibition, and the Paul Prys were unable to see much. stabbing affair occurred last evening in edn pete but the wound, fortunately, proved to be but trifling.
