West Indian Intelligence— Slave Insurrection in Cuba Desired—Rumors in regard to Designs of the United States—Influw of Specie from Turkey—The Spanish | Question— Mexican Bondholders—The Pos, Ques- tion— French Affairs, Sc. ge. ‘We have had several foreign arrivals here during the ‘past werk, which deserve notice. The West India steamer Dee dropped anchor here with the usual mails on Fridsy last, and brought some news of importance; She ha.t $500,000 in specie or freight, a valuable cargo, and sixty-eight pasenge:s, amonst whom were His Excellcucy, General Von Scholten, from St. Thomas, the Governor of the Danish West India settlements ; also, His Excellency, Governor Shortland, the British Governor of Nevis You,will, perhaps, have learned the particulars of the Engurrection in the Island of St. Croix, which began on the 2d July, by,the slaves rising, en mi and com- menci:g to burn and destroy the property of the planters. His excellency, the Governor, M. Von Sehlo, fen, Was sent for from St. Thomas, and proceeded to the Island of St. Croix, whero—finding the insurrec- tion a general one, and conceiving that he wasin pereonii danger, and in the power of the rebels; after aMquiring of the slaves what they wanted, and being informe that they required their freedom, and that Afit were not.granted they would piunder and destroy everytl ing—the worthy governor immediately pro olaimed their unconditional freedom from that day, and si.o the freedom of tie slaves in the adjoining island, This concession seemed to satisfy them for a few de»«; but shortly afterwards they broke out into m insurrection, with a view of taking possession of country and establishing an independent govern- ment. In this juncture the courage of the Daniah go- ‘vermor forsook d-be is accused of acting with indecision nearly fatal to the lives and property of the respectuble inhabitants. Determined, however, that ‘their property should be preserved, some of the princi- pal planters and others, insisted that the Governor General should resign his authority; this he did, and acomn.ission of public safety wax formed, and strong measures were undertaken to repress the aggressions of the neyroes; reinforcements were obtained from St. Thoms~ 2nd from Puerte Rico, and a good deal of. htiny took place. anda number of the insurgents were shot and taken prisoners, aud the island comparatively quieted. The Governor General resigned aad came home inthe Dee. Thus, in a few days, slave emanoi- ion was declared in the Danish West [nadia Colo- nies; sud it is affirmed the change will ruin the islands and their trade. We a'roreceived news from Jamaica that'some dis- turbarces amonst the emancipated blacks were pro- ‘Dale in that island, partly arising from the inability of «rs to give employment, and from a vague tthe negrovs that they would again be overnor had concentrated ome strong police in and around the disaffected LiNewise stated that Puerto Rico was likely soon theatre of bloodshed and. war, betwoen the ud European races.

I need scarce'y br ‘you that, amongst well informed Britishers, thig Adea do-s not very strongly exi-t. and it is not believed that the United States government is desirous to be- come immediate possessors of Cuba. [t is known that ‘agreat many of the inbabitants of Cuba are di: tisfed, and very justly dissatisfied; with the way they are ruled by Spain; that the surplus revenue of the | Fsland. canting to several millions of dollars does | mot go, as it should do, to improve its internal con- dition, but is annually remitted to Spain, for the sup- port of a brutally, corrurt, tottering, and emasculated administration; and it is thought that a portion of the inbabitants would gladly throw off the Spanish yoke, | and would prefer the protection of the Star Spangled Banner, to the grinding oppression of Spanish mis- rule, but still; the impression in England is, that the , ‘Spaniards generally in Cnbs would prefer establish- ing an independent republi: in their island, and it is expected that this is not far distant speaking the other day'with an empioyee of the Foreign Office | in Downing street, who hag a good opportunity of learning what the views really eutertained by some of ‘theministersinreference to Cuba, and | ama:sured that ‘England would not object toa rance of Cuba from wae nd the establishment of an independent go- | “vernment either republican or monarchical. but wine qua non the emancipation of the would be insisted on; and. moreover, | am assured that England swould not greatly object to the island of Cuba falling “Into the hands of the United States, but the same pro- | viso of slave emancipation would be required. In fact, | ‘to get rid of the competition of slave grown sugar from ‘Cuba, the British government would not hesitate to ite nated from Spain in any way most leasing to the population. Whether fall reliance be placed on these statements [ can hardly tell but I am clearon one head. that there is not any whatever of England herrelf taking possession of Cul She has West India colonies enough, and is pi anxious that they should be put on a fair footing be other colonies in respect to their productions. o next West India packet will bring us an ac- count of the reception in Jamaica of Lord John Rus- pell’s proposition for relief, as propounded in the House ‘of Commons on 16th June last. | prognosticate that the West Indians, both planters and merchants, will ‘be dissatisfied with it, as well they may. It is likee morsel of sop to a hungry man, aad it may possibl increase the discontent, What, however, the Britis! government cannot or will not do forthe West In- ns, 2p} likely ¢o be accomplished by the mere se of events—I mean the gradual abolition of #lavery in the Danish, French, and Spanish Antilles, ‘to which 1 have before alluded. and which,by lessening ‘the quantity of sugar produced, and increasing the Cost of production, will certainly bea great help to the planters of Jamaica, Barbadoes, Trinidad, ke , ‘and render the competition of the dreaded Havana nd Puerto Rico sugar not half so formidable in the British market. Financially speaking, the British ‘West india Islands are in a horrible plight. Jamaica, for inetance, is bankrupt. and the treasury exhausted, ‘the receiver general having (0 issue a notice that there being no money in bis hands he could not the uarter’s sataries due Junw 30th; and it was very Soubttut if the September payments could be met, there being a deficiency of $70.000.

A formor packet, the ‘Euxine, brought from the same city 513 packages —value $1,300,000 These large remittances from Turkey excite some surprise, and iead to the belfer that the balance of trade with Constantinople is much in favor of fngland, and that im- mense quantities of British’ manufactured goods must be exported to Turkey. We have an instance of that here—the Peninsular Company's steamers to Constantinople always go out fuil to overflowing. and ‘80 great i+ the demand for freight accommodation, that & Fhort time Fince upwards of 2.000 tons of freight ‘room were applied for by merchants, in @ vessel, (the Evuxine) that had only room for 400 tons of goods,— ‘The influx of specie into Southampton. for transmis. sion to the Bank of lsngland. is very great; it comes from all quarters of the world, Crnstantianple, Alexan- dria, Italy, Gibraltar, Spain and Portugal, South America, Mexico, West Indies. &c &e. ~itis computed that from $4,000,060 to $5 000,000 are received here every month on anaveruge Notwithstanding these large importations of specie.

This steamer is constructed of iron, she is 1140 tons burthen. and 500 horse power, of avery fine model, and brig rigged, She belongs to the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Com- y, and was built by Messrs, Cairn & Co, Greenock; e engive and boilers by the Messrs. Kuwcett, Preston & Co.. Liverpool, Her performance on the trial trip was considered very satisfactory by a numerons party on board. The Malta is intended to leave Southamp- ton about the 20th, for India, where she will take her station in carrying the matls between Point de Galle Ceylon, and the British settlement of Hong Kong, in ina. red, During the present week we have hid no arri’ from the coasts of Spain or Portugal, and | have, th fore, no direct intelligence to communicate to you from those parte, With regard to Spaia, it is believed that a great desire exists on the part of the Spanish cabinet to resume diplomatic relations with the court of St, James's. Already it is atated that the Duke of Soto- magos is to be permitted to resign his post of minister of foreign affairs, om the plea of ill ith, but doubt- lets with the intention of propitiating Lord Palmers- ton. The two countries, England and Spain, are in the position of two lovers who have quarrelled, andare in a state of “tiff,” as it is called here; neither one liking tospeak first, but. both desiring to be friends. 1 question, however, if the British government carce much about making it- up with the existing Spaniak government, as the idea is prevalent that a great and startling change will, ere long, take place inSpain,and that the present administration only existson the suf- ferance of the moderatos and prognesststa partics. — Meantime, the Carlist insurrection does not seem to be ining ground so fast ua was anticipated, and it Is feared that the struggle will be'postponed till the ensu- ing year, only to be resumed with that ferocity common to the Spanish civil wars Some sentation has been excited on the London stock exchange, particularly amongst the holders of Mexican bonds, in consequence of the publication of a letter from Senor, bis excellency Don Jose Luis M. Mora, the minister plenipotentiary from the Mexioan republic to England, in reference tothe dividends now due on bends representing the foreign public dsbt of Mexico, in which it is stated that the bond holders haye noright to expect any portion of the first instal- ment of $3,000,000 of the indemnity to be paid by the United es. The appearance of this document caused a of 1 to 14 per cent in the quotation for Mexican stock,and it is now marked only 16% instead €f 18, as before. Ivend you the subjoined copy of the document in question, as it will be ost interesting to American readers, as illustrating the probable tenden- cy of Mexican finance :— Mex caN LeGarion at the Conrt of her Britannic Majer, } London, Suly 29, 1848, By instructions received at this lezation from the government of the Mexican Kepubiic, I am to make knowa to the public that the government now in power is resolved honorably to fulfil the obligations contracted with respect to the foreign debt of the ro- Public, a8 far as the means of ths treasury wil pavmit, ‘The last conversion made without the authority of the goverament—tie advantages of which in its favor, and that of the bondholders, have been so strovgly questionod—is dofinitively accepted by the e:verpment of the republic, The sbligations contracted thereby are accepied, and will be f-Ifilied ag far as the Naterial sources will permit; but it will rot contract, nor will it accept new ones; Whatever may be the remote tithes upon which they may bs founded, As already said, that theso o)ligations ought to be ra- tionally understood, and that a country only just freed from u foreign invasion, in Whieh all tie sources uf ita revenue haye be exhsusted—derived almost entiely fem its maritime custo houtes—an invasion that, has disorganized its government, and whieh bas left upon it the heavy weight of ths floating debt to all its employers for the space of moro than two years—is hound to re-organize and satisty the extraordinary and urgent necessitios by whien it is surrounded; to obtain which, much reliance on the immediate proceeds of the’ houses, as the country being already profusely supplied by the im portations made during the oceupation of its porte by the Ameri- can forces, itis neither presumable nor, probable that these pro- ceeds will be great for the fist yesr., ‘Thus it oa only, for the present .ccunt upon the ingress to the treasury of the sums which it has t6 receive for the indemnity agreed upon, being th price of the eedled territory, according to the late treaty of peaoe. ‘There is no right to demar nor isitconveniout to grant, the application of the said sump to the payment of che dividends ‘aud to the amortization of the public d-bt.

MORA, ‘To the Mexican Consal in London, This communication is not at all understood on the stock exchange, particularly as the statements are in direct contradiction to the advious received per last Mexican mail, by the committee o nish American bondholders. from Mesers. M: nning & Macintosh, the agents in Mexico. Those gentlemen represented that they had had a satisfactory conference with the Mexi- can govemnment, on the subject of overdue dividends, a dthey hoped’ by the next packet to advise that a portion of the indemnity money would be set apart for Yemittance to England on dividend account. It is, therefore, thought curious that the Mexican govern- ment should assure the agents in Mexico of a desire to settle satisfactorily with the English bondholders, and by the same packet send over different instructions to their minister in London. Don Jose Mora’s letter is thought to be suspicious, from the fact that it was only published on the Fth of August, when thejast Mexican acket arrived on the 24th of July, and it is stated to only a move of his Excellency’s to keep down the advancory price of the bonds, as he is supposed to be a at “bear” in them, and is known to have exprossed Fimeelt that he would take care the stock should not © cannot place itime eustom- h. ‘he British government has made an arrangement with anineorporated company, called the India and Australia Mail Steam Packet Company, for the convey- ance of the English mails from Siogapore to Sidney. Mail UL will be convey- ed as Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, via Southamp- 1s, Aden, and Ceylon toSingapore— the voyage from Southampton to Singapore occupies forty-two days; the distance between Singapore, by steamer, is estimated at twenty-two days, so that by this route the colony of Australia will be brought toa distance oflittie over two months from (ireat Britain ‘The.advantages of the measure to India, China, and the commerce of she Eastern Archipelago, cau hardly be too highly estimated, while in its bearings at the present time on the mutual prosperity of England and ‘Australia, it is likely to prove more important and more in harmony with public opinion than any other step which could have been devised. The British govern- ment, in addition tothe above. has granted a sum of $25,000 per annum, for ten years, to encourage steam communication between Hngiand and the Cape of Good Hope. 1 do not, however, hear of any company having yet been formed to accept this grant and carry the project into execution. 1 have heard a whisper of a company on the tapisto run via Gibraltar and Ma- deira, or the Cape de Verde Islands, to the Cape of Good Hope, with a branch to Mauritua, Southampton to be the depot; but at present there would appear to be very little disposition amongst capitalists to embark in the enterprise. I have just heard of the Wa hington’s safe arri at Bremen. She left Cowes’ roads, on the 4th inst " at7 a.m. and arrived off the Weser the afternoon ot the miles in 32 hours, and having attained a speed of 13 to 13}4 miles per hour. The present trip of the Wash- ington to kurope may be reckoned to be her most successful voyage,—from New York to Bremen, inclu- ding six hours detention off Cowes, to land mails aud wsengers, has only occupied 15 days 2 hours, or, say 4 days 6 hours under steam. performing a distance from New York to Bremen of 3,636 miles. | understand she will be full of passengers and freight on the home- ward voy! nd is expected here feom Bremen on the 17th, to leave for New York on the 20th, The remarks madein the New York Herald, of July 20, on the postage question, have been the subject of much attention here, and the article has been alluded to and copied by some of the English papers, On the 7th inet., in the House of Commons, Mr. Cardwell asked Lord Palmerston for copies of the correspon- dence that had passed between him and Mr. Bancroft since 2ist February last, to which his lordship re- plied. “that the communications between the two go- vernments had not concluded; and that he was about to make another communication to the American minister, aud that therefore, it would be inconvenient, and contrary to the usual practise, to produce the correspondence in an incomplete form.” The Chan- cellor of the Exchequer further stated, in soswer to other questions, “that no formal communication had been made, by the Foreign Office, on the postage dis- pute to Mr. Bancroft, since February; but that the English postmaster general had been in correspon- dence with him since. It is very evident. therefore, that formal negotiations, which had been broken off. have now been resumed, and as the question is warmly taken up by the mercantile interest, and continual, brought before the notice of the House of Parliamen' Uthink I am not far wrong in assuring you that much. time will not clapse, ere a settlement, one way or the other, will be come to. ‘Tis a perfect farce that two great nations (professing to be the greatest mercan- tile nations) should quarrel about the postage of a letter ; a question which if two men of business had met to arrange, would have been put on a satisfactory | footing in five minutes. Yet such is diplomacy, 1 do not say much to you on French affairs, as your Paris correspondent will, of course keep you well in- formed of all that is passing It may, however, be well for me to remark on the perfect oordiality that exists atthe present moment between the French republic and the Britieh government; this is apparent Ta the atlxirs of Italy, as you will learn that the representa- tives of both governments are earnestly endesvoring to mediate for a pacific solution of the diffleult and hazardous Italian question, In a@ posteeript to this letter I sball give you the fallest and latest news [ can obtein from Paris and Italy, At the moment I write, Lam deeply fearfal for the issue of the media- tion, ns it will evidently arrive too late, and just when Ficld Marchal Radetzky, the Austrian commandar-in- chief, isa victorious conqueror at Milan, and indis- pered to accept the proffered mediation on the basis said to be agreed upon between England and France, There appears to be bat ® ghost of a chance for a fot(ement of the Sohleewig- Holstein affair, and it ap. pears hostilities will be renowed with vigor. i gether, the preservation or establishment of peace LULOpe seEMis LO De Very UnGereain aud tuprvomow, A few days may, however, alter the aspect of affairs, If France engages in a foreign war, she will be ruined for along time, beth financially and commercially; and if the present administration so far loses its way a8 to go to war with Austria on tbe Italian question, as it now stands, it will be # false, fatal, and irrecover- able step for France, and one that will lead to ruin and desolatior. to all Europe, God grant. for the in- terests of humanity, and for the good of the several European nations, that war may be avoided. The weather here has been very unsettled, with much rain, and unfavorable for harvest operations. If such weather continues much longer, there will be @ considerable rise in the prices of grain, and supplies will be wanted from the United State. POSTSGRIPT. It appears, by the most recent accounts, that Milan has oonags 4 gion reed to Radetaky and the Austrian forces. It is, therefore, evident that French and Eng- lish mediation will arrive too late, as it is hardly possi- bie thatthe Austrian commander-in-chief willconsent to evacuate Milan and — up Lombardy, just to please the French in their ideas of Italian liberty. The peace of Europe now hi ge on a thread, and it is hard to tell how the present difficult and delicate position will terminate, Marshal Radetzky will most certainly tell the British and French envoys, t! negotiations for peace are of no use, because peace has’actually been obtained through his re-conquering the Italian States, which had revolted; and the necessity for war no longer exists, mow that the King ef Sardinia has been driven back into his own territories. The French government would be going too far in sending an army to drive the Austrians out of Milan; because, as matters stand, i¢ would be an act of French aggression on Austrian territory, rather than interference to Rear to hostilities. The British government is likewise in very curious and perplexing predicamont. Before the overwhelming success of the Austrians was apparent, the British government coalesced with France, to effect a peaceable mediation, with a view to a a suspension of hostilities in Italy, and a settlement o the mattersin dispute between Austria and Kin; arles Albert, The object of Lord Palmerston’s coalition with theFrench government,was evidently to prevent France from marching an army over the Alps, to the assist ance of the Italians. While, however, these arrange- ments were going on, the Austrian commander was following up his successes with surprising rapidity, and actually outstripping the negotiations im Paris and London, for an amicable arrangement and proba- dle partition of Lombardy, bv (as it would appear) taking possersion of the whole country by force of arms, Supposing France now undertakes a war with Austria, to make that power give up a territory which has belonged to her for many years, and which she has just reconquered, England could not, on any con- sideration, bee party to the war; because the posses. sion of these very states has been guaranteed to Austria by England, in the treaty of Vienna. If, therefore, France is so blind as to fight Austria, she will break the treaty of Vienna, and bring down upon her head'the ire of the whole German confederation, with Russia; and, it is suppored, that France could scarcely be prepared to fight. single-handed, Austria, Prussia and Russia By telegraph to Liverpool to-morrow, you will no doubt get a little later mews than I can give youin reference to this allimportant question. If it should turn out that Milan has not capitulated and that the representatives of England and France have been enabled to reach the headquarters of Marshal Radets- ky before he has retaken Milan, and have sucoceded in prevailing upon him to stop hostilities, to pave the way for an armistice, then the aspect of the matter will be changed and it will have been more easy of a favorable solution. You will read in the English papers full accounts of the Italian war, and of tie rapid progress of the vicior 3 Austrians towards Milan You will also see ti ir Robert Abercrombie. the British minister at Turin, went to the Austrian commander at Cre- mona and requested six days’ armistice; but Radetz- ky’s reply was, not one hour till | haye entered Milan asaconqueror, You may judge b7 this what hopes may be entertained of the success of French and Eng- Ush interference, Alas for the cause of Italian inde- pendence, Only a European war, or # diplomatic no- gotiation with such favorable terms as cannot be ratlonally:expected from a victorious and conquering power, will save Lombardy from the grinding ‘despot- ism of Austria. Let us, however, hope that if the lat- ter power is permitted to retain possession of the morth of italy, that free institutions will be granted, and that the offers made by Austria to the Italians in the event of their returning to their allegiance, will be honestly and properly carried out. If this be done then Austrian rule would not even now be impossible or unpalatable in Italy. ANGLO-AMERICAN. é Gur Berlin Correspondence, Brat, July 17, 1848, Archduke Jolin—His Positron—Important Proceed- ings of the National Assembly—Prussian Na- tional Assembly—Stocks. If it ever was the lot of one man to be called to fill two offices at the same time, equally important, perhaps, and certainly equally responsible, that man is the Archduke John, of Austria. The Ger- man people, in electing the Archduke as governor ef the empire, have entrusted him with the highest degree of confidence that a people ever placed ina man, who, though of well known integrity of cha- racter and fine personal qualities, had given, as yet, no proof that he possessed that measure of talent and capability, which is necessary for the head of agreat and newly established’ State, situated as Germany 1s, without any firm unity among its people, and in the midst of the present political aud social revolution of Europe. The German princes, the majority of whom have sanctioned the election of the Archduke, have done so wholly guided by the confidence that their power will be more successfully maintained through the author- ity of an imperial governor, who 13 himself a rince. 3 The difficulty of the position of the Archduke, as Governor of Germany, 18 obvions; but his position as the imperial representative in Austria, 1s not less difficult. Here, serious quarrels be- tween the different Sclavonic nations must be ad- justed—a unity between the Sclavonic and Ger- man subjects of Austria established, and a consti- tution for the whole empire, suitable to all these different nations, framed. Thus the duties devolv- ing on the Archduke in his double capacity, as the Imperial Goyernor of Germany and the Imperial Representative in Austria, are more than any mortal could perform in the present time; and it remains to be seen how he will be able to fulfill his task to the satisfaction of all. On the 15th inst. the Archduke I-ft Frankfort, after he had been installed in due form as the Im- Alto. perial Governor of Germany. He will open the Austrian Parliament on the 18th imst., at Vienna, As ministers for Germany, only three have been appointed yet: V. Schmerling, from Vienna, as inister of the Interior and of Foreign Affairs; F.G. Hecksher, from Hamburg, Minister of Jus- tice; E. V. Peucker, from Schmmedeberg, Munis- ter of War. Before his departure from Frankfort, the Archduke issued a proclamation to the German people, in which he admonishes to order and quiet, Sad promisto do allin his power to restgre a state of peace and tranquillity in Germany. In ‘one of the latest sittings of the National As- sembly, at Frankfort, the resolution was passed, that the King of Hanover, who had refused, in a proclamation recently issued, to acknowledge the supreme power of the German government, should be urged to do so forthwith. The debates were very lively, and the Assembly expressed its de- termination to force the King of Hanover either to recognize the new German, government, or to re- sign his crown. A feeling against England, which is growing stronger as the German nation 1s about to unite as one people, and to shake off the commercial dependency, m which England has held Germany, to the great disadvantage ot the latter, for such a length ot time—is contri- buting to render also more unpopular the King of Hanover, who has always been acting in the i terest of England, and is still opposed against the establishment of unity in Germany, The great commercial questions relative to the future policy of trade of Germany wath foreign countries, will not be settled till Germany will have obtained a more firm state of political unity, and until a custom-union will have been Getab: lished thronghout Germany. In this city, no revolutionary disturbances have taken place [ately. The Prussian national assem- bly continues to make but little progress in the course of its proceedings. The government here has been gaining strength since the Burgher-guard is assisted by military forces, of which almost daily fresh arrive. The police has now torbid- den’ all political assemblies 1n the open air, for which permission has not been previously given, All stocks have lately risen here, and are now nearly 20 per cent. higher than they were two nionihe ago, The Prussian State stock, bearing 34 per cent, interest, is now at 73 per cent. The crops of wheat are greater this year than they have been in many years in Germany. The barrel of flour in Prussia can now be bought for four dollars. Tue Monet, Artists in Boston.—It will be seen by the proceedings of the Board of Aldermen yes- terday, that the indecent and ridiculous exhibition, under the name of ‘Model Artists,” has been forbidden by the fathets of the city.

The Bien Public seems to assume that that the eventuality named by M. de Lamartine has really occurred; whereas, nothing has transpired to prove that the intervention ot France has been applied for: by Charles Albert,, who, since the annexation Lombardy and Venice to his crown, is the only person who can be recog: nized by the Freneli government, unless it be tn- tended to re-revolutionize ftaly, and deprive Charles Albert of: his new. rights, in which case, instead of being the ally of I’rance, he would be- come’her enemy. The accounts given of the va- rious missions from Italy are 0 vague and contra- dictory, that, as yet, we are in the dark as to the real nature of the communications that *have been made to the French geveranieee told, on the one hand, that the provisional govern- ment of Milan has applied for absolute and umme- diate intervention, and that Charles Albert has asked only that the principle of intervention ma! be established as a’ sort of moral force, added to his own material means of operation, thes impos- ing upon Austria: a conviction of the necessity of negotiation whilst there is still an opportunity of negotiating with honor.

The chiefs of the insurrection were in Vin- cennes, but their spirit survived amoag the concoctors of insurrection.

Every man having been armed by the provisional ment, there was but little diMculty in procuring the means ot}combat The report traced the manner in which the national workshops were organized, and de- clared that the brigadiers who paid the men were the principal instigators, (agitation).

In May, M.

The report then, arrived at the day when the insurrection broke out, declares that the object of the movement was nominally a de- mocratic and social republic; but in reality pillage— it was, in fact. @ savage war carried on with poisoned balls. (Movement.) To compiete their task, the com- mittee would notice the political men found com- promised in the insurrection, M. Trélat, ou being ex- amined by the committee, had deolared that he con- ridered M Louia Blanc as the author of all the evil that occurred in June, as the insurrection was only an ap- plication of the theories professed by him at the Lux- embourg. M. Trélat had added that he had been his friend, but that since the events he had not dared to speak to bim. M, Louis Blanc had declared to the committee that on the evening preceding the insurrec- tion he visited the workshops of the tailors founded bf him at Clichy. He pretended that those men were animated by the best intentions, but a great number of them were found amongat the insurgents. As to M. Caussidiere, several witmesser declared that in se- veral groups of ingurgents regret, was expressed at his absence, and complaints were made that he had not sent his orders, a8 it was not known what to do with- out him. id that if be bad gone he should over m= M, Cavssiprene not bave returned, M. Baucthart —M. Mauvais, examined by the com mittee, stated that he had seen M. Caussiditre go over a barricade in the Rue Saint Antoine, accom- panied by his Montagnarde ; at least he believed they were Montagnards; from their ill-looking faces and accoutrement. M. Boson said that he saw M. Caus- sidicre near the church of Saint Paul; he passed near him, with Mauvais, to be quite sure that it was he. The committee bad endeavored to ascertain the source of these testimonies, and why they had come so late, It learned that they had been communicated but the first witnesses had provested their ve firined, in a certificate, that they aaw VM. Caussidi at the Assembly during the days of the 28d, 24th, 25th. apd 26th June, But it was anid that some of the signatures te the certificate had been obtained by M. Caussidiere, saying to some of his colleagues, “Gentlemen, it is pretended that I was xeon out of Paria, in & neighboring town, during the days of Jume—can you affirm that | was in my pince inthe Assembly during the four days of the insurrection?” It certainly appeared from the Monitewr, that on the 23d. M. Caussidiére bad uttered an exclamation interrupting a epeaker who was in the tribune. The short-hand writer, who was employed at the moment in taking down the debates, proved that his turn of duty had not come on until after two o'clock. Hence it did not rigorously result from that certificate, that M. Caussidiére, though present in the Assombly, was not also in the Rue St. Antoine. Another representative, M. Proudhon, was also signal- ized by several witnesses. On the 20th Juoe, he was seen on the Place de la Bastille, and was met on the other side of the barricades by two of his colleagues M. Proudhon hadgiven no other explanation of the employment of his time, than that he had remained two hours in admiration of the sublime horror of the cannonade. (« Oh, oh”? and laughter).

It is hoped, however, that they may recover, The damage, though com- siderable, will not delay operations in the estab- lishment more than a week.—Albany Journal, August 29. Tue Irisn tn Canapa.—We learn, froma private letter trom Natit that great excitement was created there by the arrest of four or five leaders of an Irish club, on a charge of stealing cannon balls from the batteries. As the guns on the ram- | parts of the city are mostly 32-pounders, we must confess we cannot exactly see the o' theft, as such artillery is much too hew: practice, and no one could be mad en | pect to breach the walls of the citadel.
