NO. 5166. ARRIVAL OF THE NEW STEAMSHIP EUROPA AT BOSTON. ‘Three Days Later from Burope. IMPOR ANT INTELLIGENCE. Another Plot in Francet THE CRISIS IN IRELAND. ker Re. ke TELEGRAPHIC. The new steamship Europa, Capt. Latt, arrived at Boston ut } past 6 o’clock yesterday morning. She left Liverpool on the 15th instant, at 6, P. M She reached Halifex on the 25th, at 5, P. M., and left at 8. by fog. Our advices by the E. are from Liverpool of the | afternoon of the 151th; from London of noon of the semé day; from Dublin of the morning of the same day, and from Paris of the morning of the 14th instant. Another plot has been discovered in Pans. A correspondent of the London Globe says that the men of Atcliers Nationanx, and the other turbulent workmen, liad resolved to make another attempt on | the 1th, the day originally fixed upon for the five sous banquet. It is now known that this was mere- ly a pretext for getting together an immense body, | most of whom were to carry arms secreted under their blouses, whilst others were on the first signal of outbreak to have proceeded to the depots of | muskets and ammunilion, which were to | have been made in the quarter three or four days before the intended meeting. It | is said, now, that such of the projectors ot | this plot as have not been captured for the part they took in the late insurrection, have, | for the last fortnight, been organizing their forces | fora fina) and desperate struggle. Fortunately, however, the entire plot has been discovered by the government. The headquarters of the insur- gents, this time, was to have been the Place Malesherbes, at the back of the church of the Madeleine; and the piliage of the houses in this quarter was part of the plan. The insurgents were to arrive from the outer boulevards, where, notwithstanding the searches that had been made since ‘he insurrection in June, they had still an immense number of muskets secreted; more than 1500 were found in the houses of the Faubourg Montmartre, and seizure of muskets and powder was made in the quarter of the Madeleine; the government is in possession of the whole detail of the plot, and many of the intended chiefs have been arrested. We can have no uneasinegs, there- fore, as tothe result. The Minister of the Interior M. Senard, who 1s a man of great probity and en- ergy, has already given notice to several of the great functionaries in the provinces, who, an the recent emergency, betrayed apathy, or decided hostility for the cause of order, that they will do well tosend in their resignations. Tt is said thot of lanct Fftoan af tha Rot ~-~ will be replaced, and it is not improbable that three or four will be placed under arrest, for having withheld or falsified the telegraphic despatches which were sent to them, inviting the Na- tional Guards of their departments to. march.— General Cavaignac and Generul Lamoriciere, in accord with the Commander-in-Chief of the National Guard, have adopted a plan for the prevention of barricades, which must be effectual. Patrols will be continually on foot during the night, but the National Guard, in whose zeal and courage the greatest reliance caa be placed, are to be summoned as soon as there 1s an attempt to move the pavement, and are to put in force the clause in the decree which asiimilates the maker of a barricade to the insurgent takea with arms. Before this, barricade making was merely an infringement of the laws of what was called la police simple ; but now, any man as- sisting in forming a barricade,can be at once shot. Gen. Cavaignac 1s said to be resolved to act with stém severity if another outbreak should occur. The ministerof war has published in the Montteur an order in relation to five companies of the 18th re- giment of the line, who laid down their arms to the | mob during the late insurrection, and reprobates | the act of the troops as one of base cowardice. He dismisses the officers who commanded it; breaks one of the companies, and disbands the. | others, observing that, but for considerations of mercy, all the delinquents should be punished with the utmost rigor of martial !aw. The exam- ple now made, although not so severe as this act of cowardice merited, will suffice. The army ge- nerally will regard the disgrace inflicted on these men as the greatest punishment that could be be- stowed. It is rot probable that stch a sad pusilla- nimity will be again shown. : Three days previously, Gen. Changarnier, Com- mander in Chief of the National Guards of Paris, issued an order to the Colonels of the several, le- gions to meet him,with the principal officers of his staff, at appointed hours, yesterday, at the Mairies of their respective arrondtssements, to confer with him on matters of urgency. These conferences took place, and the vane is now known to have been to concert, with the several commanders of the legions, what measures should be taken in each arrondissement in the event of another at- tempt atinsurrection. The importance attached by Gen. Changarnier to these conferences, has been manifested by a strong reprimand, published an the Moniteur, against one of the Colonels, who, being prevented from attending personally sent his Lieutenant Colonel to the conference. The Colo- nel has since resigned. 43 ‘The postscript in the European Times says, that ovr accounts from Paris, dated July 13, are again of an unsatisfactory character. A report 18, cur- rent to the effect that a serious division prevails in the government. Evidence has been obtained, it js said, which so plainly inculpated certain mem- bers of the late government, that it has been judged by some of the present government to be unavoid- able to apply to the Assembly for permission to Another party inthe government not on grounds connected but from reasons prosecute them 1s firmly opposed to this, not, we een of the question, of expediency. slits ne Gen. Cateanac himself is included in this lat- ter party, the greatest activity has continued to be observed in the departments of the War Office, the Etats-Major of the National Guard, the Mint ter of the Interior and the Prefecture of the Police. ft appears ceriain that attempts at excavation have | attempted in numerous places; one of these is bree to the Chamber, another on the Boulevard Italiens, near the Rue Louis le Grande, and another near the Faubourg Poissoniere. Much alarm con- tinues to be felt, and . few persons are visible in the streets or public walks, although the weather 1s fine, The officers of the Etats-Major have been warned by Gen. Cavaig- nac to adoptextraordinary precautions, fur attempts would be made to assasinate then at their re- ective homes. pir st: Tithe following are samples of the reports in circu- lation :—One is, that a general murder of the mem- bers of the Assembly is intended; means being organized of executing this simultaneously at their respective places of abode. the National Assembly, and demand peremptonily | She was detained off Halifax nine hours , | are rapidly organ:zing and arming. and it is very remarkable how | Another is that an | NEW YORK, FRIDAY, JULY 28, 1848. to be fed or to be shot.

From the 1th tothe 19th of June there were 1,724 new cases, and 928 deaths. In the last named day, not less than 327 persons were seized with this dreadful malady, and 153 others died. The choleza 1s gaining ground at Kasan, Nigna, Novogorod, Kostoma, Jaio-la, Wologda, | Smolensko, Toula, and Kalma.

Considerable disturbances have taken place in the neighborhood of Frankfort. Barricades were erected, and some loss of life took place Germany is still unsettled. The election of the Archduke John is causing the utmost excitement. The Swiss Diet have decreed the absorption of Neufchatel, notwithstanding the rights of Prussia. important from Ireland, The crisis 1s now fast approaching, and each party is girding itself for the contflet, the go- vernment, by a vigorous censorship of the press, the arrest of the confederate missionaries, the em- ployment of spies, and the augmentation of its armed resources; and the people by prodigious ac- tivity in the enrolment of clubs, the establish- ment of the League, the destribution of arms, the most complete fraternization of classes an boundless resolution and enthusiasm. On Saturda: nighty Mr. Dufly, of the Nation, was apprehend- fed to Newgate, whithére-"was7 nnroweu by Mr. Martin, of the Felon, who had previously surrendered. On Monday the alte torsof the Z'r:bune, Messrs. O’ Dougherty and Wil liams, and Mr. Hoban, the publisher, were com- mitted on the like charge; the whole of whom wil be tried on the 8th prox. Mr. Doherry was arrested in Cashel on Monday, and Mr. Meagher in Waterford on Tuesday, on charges of sedition, and will be tried at the pramest & sizes in Tipperary and Limerick. Mr. Meagher’s ap- prehension caused the utmost excitement in Wa- terford. The chapel bells were rung ; thousands of confederates. assembled, and it required all the authorit and influence of — the gifted and chivadcous captive, aided bythe Catholic clergymen, to prevent the people from fallmg upon the military and police. As it was, they stoned the authorities, and cut off one body of the troops from the other. They created a tor- midable barricade, which impeded the progress of the escort, and for miles harrassed and hunted the precession, but happily no life was lost. During the week, also, a Mr. Darcey, Mr. M‘Gee and Mr. Haywood were also arrested for sedition, but the bills were thrown out by the Wicklow grand jury on Thursday. The excitement, not only in Dublin, but throughout Ireland, is intense, and the note of preparation 18 everywhere sounded.

The Detatis of the News received by Special Messenger, Last Night, over the New Haven Route, Important from Ireland. ‘The compendium of Irish intelligence, which the | reader will find below, is most important:— Alluding to these topics, a Dublin correspondent, in aletter dated July 10, writes as follow ; | “The Irish Felon and the Irish Tribune published extra editions this forenoon, containing accounts of the new arrests under the Treason Felony Act. In consequonce of this renewed attempt at publication, crowds collected in Trinity street, in front of the Offices of those journals. The news-venders were sell- ing the papers very rapidly amongst the crowd, when the police interposed and deprived some of the venders tithe papers they carried. In some instances. it stated, per ons who had purchased copies of the 7'ri- dune oF Felon were compelled to give them up, the po- | Hee writing the names of the owners on the margin of the papers, Loud remonstrances were made against the proceedings of the police, who endeavored to clear the footways of the streets. At this time an alterca- tion arose between the policeand Mr. Stephen Meany, of the Tribune. and Mr. Joseph Brenan, of the Felon, oth of whom were taken in custody on a charge of obstructing the police in the execution of their duty. Those gentlemen were conveyed to College street olice office, and were brought before Mr. Tyndall in Fie board room, Mr. Meany requested a postponement of the cese, on the ground of the absence of his legal fdviser, and the magistrate allowed both the parties accused to stand out on bail until twelve o'clock to fnorrow. Subsequently @ large number of copies of the Tribune were distributed gratuitously among the crowd, The police again interposed, but many of the crowd succeeded in running off with the papers. Up to half past four o'clock, Trinity street continued quite crowded. Some of the police were in attond- | dnce. There was much excitement, but no appear- ce of disturbance.” oMPhe police have exceeded their instructions, in re- gard to the seizures of newspapers from private indi- Siduals, as will be perceived by the following commu. hications, addressed to Mr. J. Boylan, of Grafton street :— ‘ | « Mernorouitan Poutcr Orric Dublin Castle, July 11. “gyn—I am directed by the Commissioners of Police | to forward to you the copy of an order issued this morning; and as they have just been informed that ‘were the gentleman in whose handsthe newspaper es seized, the write to express their regret at the | occurrence, ov the annoyance to which you were | subjected. 1 have, &., (Signed) «“R.

The first meeting of the Irish League took piace on the evening of the 11th instant. It was held in the Music Hall, Abbey street. Although the attendance Was numerous, yet the proceedings were not charac. terised by any feature worthy of particular remark; at least, such as might be expected at the first assembliag of a new association. Conciliation Hall repealors were present, but they were few, and those few have been long known to be favorably disposed towa1 federation, and oven suspected of being principles, On the motion of Mr. R. O’Gonstax, the chair was e Hon. Mr. Barwewaut, who briefly addrossed th meeting. Ho said, 1 firmly belivve there 1s bat one way alone by which we can obiain from the British Government the restoration of our lost rights, and that is by uniting—(hear, hear)—and my only fueling of regret is, that that desirable cousummation has not taken place long sinee. Had it been so, those. men ow the inmates of a prison wrest then) prison would be with us r, "GORMAN, sen., moved a resolution to effect that it was expedient in this hour of peril to the lives, liberties, and property of Irishmen, they should all unite, in order to be better able to resist the com. mon enemy. Mr. Maunior Lerne, (late of Conciliation Hall) amidst loud applause, next proceeded to address the meeting. After some few preliminary observations he said—Our objest here is to combine all sections of ro. pealers. I owe it to myself to state that I am not a Fenegade from my political faith ; for I hold it that he who preached its principles said that when the consti. tution was abrogated, then resistance beeaine the duty of the subject, What is the policy of the British go. vernment?

On the continent of Europe the nawe of England is a by- word of reproach. Her reclamations are scorned, and the fiction of her iovincibility is laughed at. Spain resents, with irsults, her audacious intermeddling in her diplom nd they invite her to seck reparation from the descendants of the clder chivalry o ile and Arragon amongst the sierras of their land. And Ireland—Irland burns to fulfil the dream of liberty. which was the ivspiration of her kingly roll of patriots and martyrs—Ireiand burns to inscribe the epitaph of Emmet. (Loud cheers) Ireland burns to appease the shades «f Tone, and the manes of the slaughtered brothere—she burns to complete the work which O'Connell commenced. (Cheers.) Yes, Ireland burns to have restored to her her lost patriot and exile, John Mitchel. (Cheers) Rally, then, Irishmen, and you will send terror into the heart of England. Fer my part, though { do not intend to break the compact into which I have entered, and gi¥e utterance to the thoughts that I burn to express, yet I must confess hat, under existing circumstances, I have an inve- terate admiration for sedition. (Choers and laughter.) The time will come, and it must come soon, when it will be the duty of the patrjot to preach discontent. (Hear, hear.) "After some further romarks in a similar strain, Mr. Leyne resumed his seat amidst loud ap- laure. PiMr. W. J. Barrensny seconded the motion. Mr. F, Moncax submitted to the meeting the names of the committee of the “ Irish League.” Amongst the more prominent were—Mr. C. G. Dufly, of the Nation; Mr. John Martin, of the Felon; Mr. R. D, Williams and Mr. O'Doherty, of the Tribune ; Sir Colman O'Loghlen, Mr. W.'S. O'Brien, M. P., Mr. T. F. Mea gher, Mr. A. R. Stritchy Dr. Kane, of Kilkenny, Reve- rend James Hughes, Mr. J. B. Dillon, Reverend T. O’Mally, and the Messrs. O'Gorman. Mr. Morgan then assured the meeting that the men whose names he had read had sworn fealty to Ireland, and would be found either in the council room or behind a barricade. (Loud applause.) He (Mr. Morgan) considered one pair of hands outside a prison worth ten pair insida; therefore, in his humble capacity, he would try to serve his country in the dry details of business—tho league and the clubs. It was desirable that their eno- mies should’not takejthem ata disadvantage, and there- fore the people ought. to be organised in clubs and in different localities, Those clubs would be, of course, unarmed, but nevertheless it was the constitutional right of every man in these countries to possess arms for his own protection. All those clubs would be, and are unarmed; but they should send forward their returns to the league, and the league would announce their numbers, and when it was ascertained that those num- bers had reached a certain point then they might de- pend upon it that the rights of the ceuntry would be respected. He (Mr, Morgan) was aware that the num- bers of those clubs were formidable, but were but rude masses, The Duke of Wellington had stated in his letter to Sir John Burgoyne, on the pros- pects of an invasion, that no matter how brave the po- pulation of a country might be, they would be nothing but a helpless rabble unless previously drilled and dis- ciplined, (Hear.) In conclusion, Mr. Morgan assured the league that he would prefer being shot at a barri- cade than endure the present police domination as practised in Dublin. Mr, Ricnann O'Gonman, jun., read aseries of let- rom different parties expressing their approval of ® union of repealers, and the dissemination of the clubs. One writer says :—“ The clubs are doing won- ders here; every man seems impressed with the !dea & his country.” Mr. O'Gorman finished the reading of the Jotters by saying, the best speech to bring convic- tion to your minds ought to be the policemen’s batons, and the bars of Newgate. (Cheers.) Mr. D'Arcy Maoxy, at considerable length, defend- el the clabs, dwelt on their utility, explained thelr objects, a@ showed from the opinion of Mr. Holm the barristep, that there was nothing illegal in thei construction. On concluding, Mr. Magee implored of the country to hasten and join the league to take advantage of the interval between the present time and the first of August, to increase their numbers, andbehad no doubt if they enrolled one hundred thousand leaguers by the time he mentioned, the cow- ardly government of this country would not dare to bring the martyrs in Newgate to trial, Ie had recetv cd A letter from Mr, Smith O’Brien, in which the honorable gentleman stated that he would be in town hefcre a week had elapsed, and in time to be present at their next meeting. (Cheers.) The meeting then separated. ‘THA PROTESTANT REPEAL ASSOCIATION. The Protestant Repeal Association held a meeting on the evening of the 12th, in the Musio Hall Abbey street. ‘There was a crowded attendance in all parts of the building. The chairman, Mr. Suilivan, in opening the proceedings, expressed his opinion that the elements of the constitution were now merged into brute force; that the policy of England now was to stimulate into a pre- mature insurrection, and then crush forever the power and spirit of the people, Several new members wore admitted,and speeches of the usual character deliver- ed, in the course of which the political hooesty of Mr. John O'Connell was severely ques@oned. Rosolutions were adopted, declaring that a perseverance in the pre- sent system must inevitably lead to such a state of things as willriskthe connexion of Great Britain in Ireland ; and that all classes of Irishmen should unite to obtain their rights, and the restoration of a dom tic legislature. DINNER TO MR. SMITH O’RRIEN. The long projected soirée given by the Citizens Club, of Cork. to hie. Smith O’Brien, took place on the 10th instant. The attendance was numerous, and every one present was enthusiastic in his endeavor to do full honor to the guests of the evening.

The following bill has been extensively circulated through all the channels open to the Irish confederacy; | that is, through the clubs and the other branches of the organization. It does not bear any printer's name, but there is little doubt it comes through this source: Jonun Mantin—To tHe Citizens or Duptix.—Fol- low citizens: An infamous outrage has been this day perpetrated upon a fellow citizen by the servants of the English government. Without a color of law, they broke into his house—seized and carried off by force his private property, In his person the law has been ret at defiance, and the moat sacred rights of the citi- zen have been insolently trampled under foot. Before their trial, citizens aro treated as convicted felons— their homes violated—their property siezed and confis- cated. Irishmen! this must not last. We must not be tame—we must not be idle—whilst an Austrian des- potism is being planted in our country. The day of reckoning is at hand—the hour for the death grapple with this tyranny approaches.

Panis, Thursday, July 13. Tho Nation2l, which used to be oonsiivted ths De- bats of fhempublio, makes a decided. though courtsous, opposition £5 the government, with respect to the ve- strictive laws against tue press and the clubs. This is the more remarkable, as this journal stands almost alone in this uct of opposition The National tinds that a lodgment of 24,000f. security money is too much, although it does uot amount to a fourth part of the sum required under the monarchy. The clubs ought | not to be interfered with, unless they mot armed, and thus this moderato republican organ, by a singularly ill-timed opposition, hopes to win back the good graces of the more advanced party, which hud began to hate it. Several jouruals alluded to the disagreeable ramora that were current yesterday, but generally for tho pur- pore of expresslax disbelief: It is not true that there ad been attem:s to throw up barricades in the Fau- bourg St. Marceau, as had been asserted. ‘Tho Reforme of this morning undertakes to say, that all sach rumors are the vatural result of the feverish excitement of the public mind after such terrible events; but the Consti« tionnel. in the following article, does ‘not shrink from an exposure of the dreadful designs still working in the heads of the vanquished part; The firm and resolute tone assumed by M. Senard, in the name of the government, in presenting tho bills relative to the clubs and the press, has produced a re- turn of confidence, aud caused a riso in quotations at the Bourse There are at thismoment in presence two conflicting influeuces, which act by turns on the pub- lic mind, and animate and weaken the hopes of tho public, Whilst the Assembly and the government seck to secure order and restore labor, by the re-establish- ment of confidence, and the restoration of activity to trade, agitators are busily engaged, either by vile at- | tempts or by crimes, to keep up a’ perpetual state of anxiety in Paris, in ordur to increase the misery of the working classes, and give a fresh impetus to disorder, It is this party of agitators that wo designate the fa- mine and misery party. They base their odious calou- lations on the duration and excass of public misfor tune. Renewed prosperity would condemn thew to powerlessness, “There is, therefore, no design too monstrous to be taken hold of by these sanguinary agitators, At one time they organize assassination on a large scale. Not content with firing at the corner of every street on the armed force who may be moving about singly, they pro- pore, it is eaid, to visit the residsnces of the represen- tatives, and murder them in their houses. At another time. the question of incendiarism and infernol ma- chines is in ¢ ntemplation. Quarries, sewers, and mines, dug for the purpose, are to be filled with powder, so that Paris, surprised and alarmed by numerous ex. plosions in different parts at the same time. may more easily fall into the power of those factious robbers, “At another time, a still more oxeorable crimo is agi- tated by them A razzia hus been in contemplation on ull the boarding schools and convents, from which all the inmates are to be taken and retained as heita- ges until the release of all the prisoners in coafinement as been ordered, with any other fluaneial or political capitulation which may be impose: thle tnternalSebame y posed by the actors of “To denounce these frightful schemes is to sa the authorities are warned of them; that the aocols are the object of a particular and special survoillanc: and that an attempt at any of those monstrous mea- suzes will only cause redoubled vigilance, “The more tl is Lpmivre! we rey and tho more the number of agitators become reduced, A less violent plan was, therefore, talked of to keep the capital inacontinued state of uneasiness, and per- petuate the existing misery. It was to form a column of from 30,000 to 40,000 ‘persons if possible, and to march to the National Assembly, and then demand food. or to be shot—that was to be the watchword, “The answer bus been already given—it consists in the astistance which the state distributes to the old workmen of the afeliers nationaxr, through the medi- um of the mayors; in the funds voted every day to give afresh impetus to labor; in the incessant exer- tions of the Assembly and of the government to re- store credit, and, as a matter of course, commerce. “The answer to be given to these 30,000 petitioners may well be—You, yourselves, by lending yourselves as you have done to the mancuvres of the onemies of society and of the republic, destroy the public fortune on which you wish to live; you destroy the sources of labor, the very object of your desire; you make your- selyca the accomplices of the ‘Famine and Misery Pa ty,’ who build their hopes on the excess of your suf- ferings. “The efforts of good citizens, the firmness of the Assembly and of the government—the inflexible reso- lution which they will show inthe maintenance of order, will repress and discourage all thoso detestable ideas, Confidence will return in spite of the efforts of those who with to destroy it. ‘The discovery of the | desperate schemes of bad citizens will still more con- | tribute to fortify the hope of honest ones, Such a | state of things imposes more than ever on the execu- tive power the necessity of energy, and on the police devotedness and capacity.”” In confirmation of the remarks of the Constitutionnel it may be added, that the government havo come to the knowledge of an extensive conspiracy which had been concocted, the scene of which was to have been near the Madeleine, 0 as to have given the parties concerned in it a greater chance of being able to make | a successful attack on the National Assembly. Searches have been, in consequence, made in several houses in that neighborhood, in one of which upwards of 3¢0 muskets and a quantity of ammunition are | said to have been seized ‘We read in the Messager :— © The alarmists continue te instil apprehensions for the Mth of July, and some of the vanquished, in a spirit of impudent defiance, which is really an attack upon order, go about repeating that all is not finished, | that the beginning only has been seen, &. We can- not declare too strongly that no new effort of bad p sion is to be made at this moment. We will add, that even if it were not physically impossible for sedition again to raise its head, the force assembled in Paris, aud the measures taken for the maintenance of order, would make of a combat, if it should be attempted, only an occasion for an exemplary and final chastise- ment’? ‘The Patrie says:— “On Tuesday a Guard Mobile was stabbed in the breast on the Place de I'Hotel de Ville. The assassin, who was immediately arrested, said that, as the insur- rection was svon to recommence, and as he could not take part in it, he wished to pay hia debt boforehand. ‘The wretch was immediately taken to the Prefecture of Police.” ‘The Mayor of Paris has mado a report to the new municipal council of the financial state of the corpo- ration, which is very gloomy. ‘The receipts at the barrier gates of Paris upon the articles of consumption brought into the city, and which formed the chief | source of the revenue of the corporation, had fallen off one-half. The money in hand does not amount to | ‘our miilions of franes, to mect all expenses to the 20th of August, while at the same time the-corporation is called upon to make extraordinary exertions to give work to the unemployed.

M, de Yomestine still adheres to the principles Inid down in his celebrated manifesto, and repeated in the Assembly subsequently to the manifestation of the 16th May, when the question of Polish interference was raised He summed up hia reasoning by expressing hia princi. ples tomean syinpathy with all nations—abdication of all ambition, of conquest, patronage by France of all nationalities which desire «glorious revival, and an aliiance of ideas rather than of arms. Why M. de Lamartiue should have deemed it nece: sary at this moment to come forward and repeat these rentiments is not stated. It may bo that he desires to mect the accusations that are breaking through the in- quiry now proceeding in Belgium relative to the viola- tion of the Belgian territory by men who had been armed in France, Pa yea in France, led by French Po- lytechnic pupils, and guided by French commissioners, To the invasion of have been a stranger, but there is strong reason for be- lieving that his col gg favored and supported it. | ‘The movements of the Russian trooops in Moldavia | hia have excited the most earnest atten- | the expected decisive engagement be- | tween the Piedmontere and the Austrians keeps the public mind awako, and the new complication in'Spain club room ought to be yielded without a siege. If they ask an act of Parliament, it cannot pass under ten days or a fortnight ; if there were six honest and capable Irish members, {t would not pass this session, But the interval, whatever it may be, ought to be used in spreading the club organization with the faror of a cruade, If the act become law, andour last right is stricken down, the presidents of all the clubs in Ire- land might meet as a provisional council, summon the country around them, and resist the aggression with ss.

Hungary. OPENING OF THE HUNGARIAN DIRE. ‘The solemn opening of the Hungarian National Diet took place on the 9th of July, at Pesth. His Imperial Highness the Archdake Stephen, after laying before the Assembly the forms which constitut- ed him the royal plenipotentiary and representative, spoke as follows :— “His Majesty, our King, was pleased to convoke the Diet of his faithful Hungerian tubjects on the second of this month. It was the gracious and paternal in- tention of his Majesty to open and conduct the Diet in person ; but to the sincere grief of his faithful peo- ple, severe illness prevents the carrying out of this in- tention, and, by royal command, i am commissioned to open this Diet in the name and in the person of the King. “{ therefore lay before you this royal commission, and at the same time another roysl ordinance, im which his Majesty informs the estatos of the empiro, that so long as his illness continues, and he is there- by provented from appearing sinong his faithful Hun- gurian subjects, he has been graciously pleased to ap- point me the representative of his sacrod person for Hungary, and the countries included in the military frontier.”” ‘After the Minister Szemero had read the rescript, the Archduke delivered the following speech from the throne :— “Inthe name and as tho representative of our glori- ous reigning Sovereign, Ferdinand V., | hereby declare the present Diet to be opened “ The extraordinary state of the country rendered it necessary to convoke this Diet without delay. and without waiting for the working out and completion of ail those proposuls and arrangements which the responsible ministry of his Majesty had, by the com- mand of the late Diet, been commissioned to prepare and complete. “in Croatia there is open insurrection; in the lower provinces of the Danube insurgents have broken the peace of the country; and while itis his Majesty's carnest desire to avert a civil war, he is, at the same time, convinced that the united representatives of the nation will consider it their primary aud important object to adopt such mengures as may be requisite for ablishment of peace, for securing the integ~ ¢ Hungarian crown, and preserving the «ae cred inviolability of tue laws. The defence of the country and the finances, therefore, are the chief ob- jects which, under the present extraordinary cirenm- ‘tances, in the name of his Majesty espscially, { cull the attention of the representatives. ‘ | Sa'ne responsible ministers of his Majesty will lay be- fore you suitable proposals on these subjects. He con- | fdently expects ‘that the representatives of the nation will adopt speedy and suitablo measures for the secu- rit; i weal of the country. “With feelings of pain and great displeasure his ma- jesty has been informed that although he, who has the well of all his subjects at heart, was following the dictates of his own free will when in the late Diet hy sanctioned, on the petition of his faithful subjects, and granted those laws which are called for by the re- wiremonts of the times for increasing the welfare of the country; yet, notwithstanding this, in Croatia and the Lower Danube provinces, ovil-minded rebels, by false reports, excited against on» another the vari- ous inhabitants of the ceuntry who differed from them, and said that the said Inws were not the free re- sult of his Majesty's royal will, and thereby incited them to withstand the power of the law. “To calm all the inhabitents of this country, of whatever religion, | hereby declare, as being specially charged to doso by our illustrious lord and master im his name, and as the representative of his person, that THE Re his Majesty is firmly resolved to protect the unity and | inviolability of the Hungarian crown against any ag- gression from without or within, and at all times to inaintain inviolable the laws sanctioned by him. “The union of Transylvania with Hungary sanctioned by his Majesty with the most heart sure, the more so because has been ho has thereby te ‘rans’ eritigamation of the two ey will, by the combined development of their vigor and prosperity, be « firmer bulwark for the ores and — j “ fi His Majesty's ministers will subi thi: ‘that remains to be artalie of the already effected amalgamation of the ad. ministrative body. en relations in the Lombardo- “ With regard to dom, where the hostile troops of the reece wardinia, and como Italian powers, Rave at- tacked the army of his Majesty, the war is not yet ter- minated, regard to other foreign powers, our friendly relations remain inviolate; and his majesty less ques~ tions the continuance ot this since it has ever been the chief care of bis government not to neg! thing which, without infringing upon the t any digamity of
