The Money Market. The rapidity with which all securities have risen since the re-opening of the Bourse, and particularly gunce the presentation of the financial projects of M. Goudchaux, is a certain sign that with a good and wise administration of the public purse, the government may rely on the support of French and foreign capitalists. The predecessors of the present minister will, no doubt, perceive am this sudden improvement in the market, that fidelity to contracts gad the maintenance of public order, aré the first co! ditions of public credit, Speculation bas had something to do in this rise, Thave already stated. but no great part, and would fhave been comparatively inactive but fromg¢he know- ledgo that orders to buy were arriving on all sides from ‘thore who having sold at any rates, in the moments of Panic, were now disposed to repurchi Tho reappear- fence of money bas induced most of the speculators to Fesume their oprati n in addition to their approcia- tHon of tho mini-terial measures, But ought we to onelude, from this general netivity, that matters po- Utically nnd fpancinlly. are of svoh a nature ax to jus- tify the belief that all the sores are het nd that wo ought blindly to trust to hazard for the future? Cer- tainly not. Never was prudence more necessary, and never should it be more strovgly recommended "It is enough at- tentively to cousider the operations for the account for the last week, to show that epeculation may briny about a transition completely foreign to the anal situation.

No event of striking importance has occurred since the date of my last leter. Every building im and around Paris, which it is possible to con- vert into a prison, including the entire circle of detached forts outside the tortifications, are filled with insurgent prisoners; the number of whem has now attained the enormous amount of 15,000, and war- rants are issued daily for the arrest of so great a num- ber that the clerks cannot fill up the names and dates with sufficient rapidity. This is an awful state of things ; and almost verifies Caussiditre’s dec'ara- tion, that things would not end until one half of Paris should arrest the other half. We live in constant alarm. The streets and public ways can Boarcely be said to be even by day, decidedly not so by night In the suburbs insur- gents lie in ambush behind walls and empty buildings, and everywhcre that ingenui'y can suggest, and fire | om the paseengers.

We are happy to say such profs have not been found. Sundry projectiles prepared with the most infernal art. have indeed been found in the houres of some of the insurgents, and in their magazines.

Our German Correspondence. Beri, July 10, 1848. Interesting German Intelligonce—The Election of Archduke John as Governor—The Cholera, §c. What, six months ago, was but the dream of poets, has been realised in these days in Ger- many. The old German Empire, remodelled so as to suit our present times, has been re-establish- ed, and a provisionary government installed in the person of the Archduke John, of Austria, as Go- vernor of tne Empire. The imperial governor, invested with the exccutive power of the Stato, is him- eelf irresponsible, and exercises that power through | minsters, who are responsible to the people. The au- thority of the governor decides all matters concerniog the welfare and safety of the State. By him all officers of the State. and the representatives of Germany with foreign powers. are appointed. and the representatives of foreign States >eceived. War and peace caunot bo declared by him, nor commercial treaties concluded, but by and with tho advice and consent of the Na. tional Assembly He bas no power whatever to direct or interfere with the work of framing « constitution for Germany, with which that legislative budy is | charged. Though a provisionary government is now establish- ed in Germany, and by it some degree of confidence | pas been restored, the political fever which is raging in Europe and is the cause of so much disorder and disturbance, is not abating in this country, but ia- | creasing every bour. The elect on of a governor of the empire. who, though appointed by the representatives 0/ a sovereign people, is not responsible to the people, has created tho greatest excitement. and is now the | subject of angry contentions among the different ries. | PAWhen the German National Assembly first met at Frapkfort, and Heinrich V Gagern was elected presi- dent, he solemnly declared that the solo authority by which the representatives of the German people had assembled, was the sovereignty of the German nation Now, this ascembly has decreed, as the will of a sove- Teign people. that they will not only keep all their kings and princes. but that they must have one more prince to be the head of all the others. This is repre- ented by the republican party exhibiting tho strongest ome that the opposite parties are acting wholly without political sense or consciousness of the real state of things, for it is very plain that the confu- sion in Germany, which was chiefly caused by princes, | will not te lessened by adding one moro } Rince to their number. The hope entertained by those partivs that | the kings aud princes of Germany will by willing to resign the grenter part of ther power to the tead of the central government of Germany, is certainly vain, | if we consider that it is much more probable that thoy will strive to retain as mu.h of their power, aad con- tinue to cause as much trouble and confusion in Ger- many, as they may be able to do. Thus the unity of Germany will not be estab ished by a form of govern- ment bke the one now adopted, and the prospect to re- stere firmly and permanently a state of quiet and order | in Germany for the present is yetdistant. Nevertho- | lesa, the establi-hment of sowe form of government hus acted favorably towards encouraging public confi- denoe and oredit. The election of the Archduke John, as Governor of the Empire, took place at the end of last month, and &® deputation, with the Vice-President of the National Asrembly at the head, proceeded forthwith to Vienna | to deliver in person the message of the representative | booy of the German people, to the Archduke, All | | parts of the country, through which the deputation | Paserd. evinced their joy on the happy event of the establishment of a government for Germany, and t yairy, artillery, and engineers, Rigorous Inws bare BO cLMMUDition, Im June, 1848 the enemies of soolety eiection of the Archduke John, by a festive reception | had full time, and ewry fucility to procure, and amass ammunition.

Averswald. The Prussian government then declared that it had eoognized the Archduke John ax Governor of the Empire, though its consent bad not been arked by the German National Assembly, but that, that care shou.d not stand as a precedent for otber cases, when it would expeot that ita advice and consent would be desired. It is evident from this, that as much as Prussia will have to give up of ita power, as an independent State in Europe, it is not willing to beeome merely # provincial State of Germany, The Prussian National Assembly continues to hold sittings and uninteresting discussions, on the most Useless questions, unprofitable to the country and every one olay, except to the members of the Assembly, who receive pay for annoying every body with the slowners of their prooeedtn In the course of the next sittings. it is hoped, however, that the Minister of Fiano. will give some oxplanations relating to the finences of Prussia. which will throw light on matters hitherto held obscure, and have been long wished for by the people, Great military forces have ly been concentrated in avd it Berlin, and it is the ol it of the Prussian government, wih them and the Burgher Guard, of thie oity, to suppross with all energy further attempts of the revolutionary party in the capital, Great fears are entertained for the approach of the cholera, which Lt ag in the city of St. Petersburg, and ARE weet 5 Accounts im received from Viemna, state that the mipistry of Lend resigned, sad Vr.
