I came in the steamer Hibernia from Europe. I take the first opportunity of sending to your Paper, 80 well known in both hemispheres, an interesting piece of news. ‘ You will, perhaps, already have been informed that a great riot took place at Berlin on Sundoy, the 15th October last, among the workmen, which was finally put down by the National Guard, and in which several deaths oceurred on both sides. On Tuesday, the 17th, in the morning, the fune- ral of the dead took place, when the workmen made another émeute, and commenced by shooting ‘on the funeral bearers. This news came by express from Berlin to Ham- burg, a: cus moment J started trom the lntter place, wie 17th October, in the morning. The people of Berlin feared that, in case the émmeute made fur- ther progress, Berlin would be declared in a state eee has not yet, and could not have ap- peared in any English paper, as I was the only pas- sepger in the steamer for Hull. 2 The next steamer from Liverpool will undoubt- edly bring you some highly important news from Germany. J. 8., from Hamburg. Letter from Newgate—Rights of American Citizens. ~ Neweate, Dustin, Irevann, Oct. 20, 1848, To Jamas Gorpow Beynett, Esq.-- ‘ Sim :—I trust that you will [give the following statement publicity,as I have been treated in a base manner by the hired spies and ruffians in the em- ploy of the British government in this country.— As my statement affects the honor of the American flag and the nghts of American citizene—both na- tive and naturalized—particularly the latter who have fled from British oppreszion and misrule—I lay before you the facts connected with my arrest and imprisonment. They ere stated in full in my letter to the Hoa. George Bancroft, the American Minister resident to London. They speak for themselves, and show how much England respects nights, treaties, or international law. I was first arrested in the town ot Cashel, county Tipperary, while in the act of prosecuting some enquiries rela- tive to come legal business, and brovght, under an escort of armed police, to their barrack, examined from head to foot by them, and after being detained about an hour, was permitted to depart.

And for the publication of this journal, published in America, and for this speech, purporting to have been delivered in America, the Irish Attorney General and Lord Cla- rendon think they have just cause to prosecute me. I never understood that their jur! ion extended so far. I thought that the surrender of Cornwallis andthe battle of New Orleans defined the boundaries of British power, If, however, it seems the intention of Lord Claren- don, and his irish Attorney General, to indict me for publishing on American journal, | can tell them it is 8 stretch of im: ion on their part and that of the British authoriti thi ight as well eay that Presi- dept Polk is a subordinate officer of Queen See and seek to impeach him for one of his Presidenti mersag indict Senators Hannegan and Benton for speeches made by them on the floor of the United States Senate.

It appears that when the Turkish troops, to the number of 20,000, were advancing, the Wailechiene thought they were friends. and, on their arrival in front of the town, did not hesitate a moment in sending all their chief men to attend a conference in the Turkish camp, to which they were invited. with many protestations of friendship and regard, by Fuad Effendi. When there, however, they were at once surrounded as rebels, and placed under arrest. In the meantime, the Turkish tr commenced to bombard the town on all sides ; they rushed into the streets, where the most deadly struggle commenced between the troops and the inhabitants, deprived of their leaders, and completely disarmed. To the cannon- shots and the murketry the people had nothing to op- pore but their courage and their deep The carnage was frightful The Turks took Kona gemid of all parts of the town, aud gave themselves up to the most drendful excerses ; but, ina short time, on arriving near the barrack where the Wallachian soldiers were waiting in vain for orders, they were stopped in their course by a shower of balls. It was here that the real battle commenced. It Insted several hours: The Wallachian soldiers, surrounded on all hands by thou- rands of enemies, and exposed to the fire of a numer- ous artillery.made an heroic resistance; but, in a short time, their barracks were destroyed by the bullete, and they themeelves fell before their numerous aseailants, alee, “Long live the constitution!” The Turks ere masters of the town.

It ia stated in a letter from Mannheim, of the 11th, that the investication into the case of Struve was ter- winated. Struve had declared that he would not deny the crimes of which he was accused, but that he would give no information respecting bis accomplices, or of his enterprise. The brether-in-law of Struve, Dusar, Blind, and others, have, it is raid, made ayowals, Ali the persons arrested fer the insurrection of September are at Bruchsal, but Struve’s wife is still at Friburg. Transylvania, Letters from Karlsbourg, of the 28th Sept., announce a serious movement of the population of the surround ing country sgainst the Hungarian government, « the ocewsion of a levy of troops by conrcription. M than eighty villages had risen, declaring their re: ness to fight for the Emperor of Austria. They manded that all political prisoners should beliberat that the levy of recruits should be suspended; » that the popular arsembly of Blasendorf should rece: a legal sonction from the government. The royaloom missioner, to whom these de: were addressed, re- turned at first an unfavorable answer, and threatened to dissolve the assembly by force. He, however, at length promised to liberate the prisoners, and Baron ‘Way proceeded in person to Blasendorf, where he de- livered a speech in the Hungarian language. The conscription, which had in fact ceased, was ordered to be suspended, and the assembly was urged to separate. ‘The multitude began to disperse, when it was reported that the political prisoners had not been released, and the fury of the people was increased beyond measure. The result was looked forward to with great anxiety. Poland. A letter from Warsaw, of the 8d ult., announces that the Russian army encamped in that neighbor- hood, to the number of 34.000 men, 10,000 horres, and 212 pieces of cannon, bad been reviewed the preceding day by Prince Paskewitech, avd had subsequently pro- ceeded to their winter quarters.

On the bth, the anniversary of the King’s birthday, and the peried fixed for the general election of the States of the kingdom, his Majesty received the reprerentatives in the palace of Christianburg. and was adéremed by the President in a speech from which we quote the following pesege “The Danish people will be always ready tomake every sacri- fice that may be required for the defence of the boundaries «f the country and the honor of the nation. ‘They will reeol ect, with the incst lively gratitude, that the promise of @ froo constitution made by the King motw proprio, immediately after his ac- ces: ion, Whilst, in other countries, such concessions were only e=- torted from princes by popular i etions.”” T 7a exprerred hia . in appropriate term: to bare the strength of his people. In the evening a general illumination took Place. and the king paraded the streets on horseback, amid the acclemations of his subjects.

A letter from Warsaw. of the 7th instant, states that a ukare of the Emperor Nicholas, which bas just been published, accords seme extension to the rights which the Jews enjoyed in Poland. It declares that in thir- teen streets where only three Jews have been hitherto admitted to live, as many as five can reside for the fu- tore; that all the other streets of the capital, andin all | the other towns of Poland, where the Jews were pre- vented from residing, they may establish themselves in any numbers they pleare; that they may even pur- cbare ground to build on, provided that they erect on | it boures of stone.

The Imperial Court left Vienna in the power ofa dominant faction and @ euccersful rebellion, for the purpose of pore the rcat of government elsewhere ; and the Emperor's advisers have shcewn no disposition to lower their tone in treating with the revolutionary Jeaders The time is past when a pretended allegiance on the one hand, and ipsincere ecncertions or ¢ arene of confidence on the other, could conceal the breach which lics between the sovereign and the revolution; and it { able that be should even lose bis crown end manful contest fer the rights belonging to it. than thet be eheuld continue to hold it, wa the King of Prussia eeems disposed to do, on the ditions attached to it by a threatening ral a sca teaton.

Prince Metternich professed to govern. By one of the severest judgments of dence, that minister has been spared to see the con- fummation of his work. The remopvstrances to which he was deaf are now heard in peals of thunder; the abuses to which be was blind are now the Nemesis of Austria; and he lives to behold the horrors offs crisis he dia ng to avert, and the deptb of the abyss to which his mirgovernmept bas eventually consigned his sovereign and his country. The more deeply we are interested im the restoration of peace to that fine country, and in the maintenance of t! supreme fo- verpment cf the empire. the more severely are we dis- pored to visit these calamities on their proper author. At the present moment, however, the proceedings of the imperial forces before Vienna are a matter of diate interest than bet eneral considera- No measures would have been deemed d to punish fthe unfortunate Latour; but, never- theless, we sre not surprised that the imperial gene- rals still showed their clemency by forbearing to bom- bard: the capital. Although, therefore, Count Auers- berg even moved from his cantenments at the Belve- dere apd in Prince Schwarzenberg’s garden, where he probably found considerable difficulty in providing tor the wants of an army of 20,000 men, we are disposed to regard this delay in the operations as « proof of strength rather than of weakness or irresolution; fer, if any important reinforcements bad been on the! wargh from Hungary to relieve Vienna, the imperial usgala must have been compelledgte their el, by more ective measures ogai ‘Thee greater probability is. that as the three corps d’armée now round the city—that of Jellachich, of Auereber avd of Windirchgra’ amount to not Jers tha: 60,000 men, they expect to reduce st by blockade, in- stead of baving recource to the more dreadful expe- dient of letting looee a horde of soldiery on the late seat of empire Our surmise that the Court would at once proceed in the direction of Prague proved correct; but it seems likely that Brunn rather than Prague will be its temporary pings, of sojourn, and the conserva- tive members of the Assembly who retired after the atrocities of the 7th inst., have agreed to resume their deliberations in the obief city of Moravia.

A Change of the Executive and Manutry—Nap leon und Russia— The Conservatives—New As pect for the. Future. General Cavaignac and all his ministers voted for an election of President by the Assembly, and were, therefore, in the minority of 212 to 602 ; and Ithink that this mistake will overthrow them, either by the Assembly or the people. General Cavaignac had strongly recommended the elec- tion of President by univeysal euffrage, before the ccmmission on the constitution, and M. Marrast had done the same, and had been chosen reporter of the commission ; yet, after the recent election of Louis Napoleon, they have changed, and at- tempted to eflect an election by the Aesembly. I think the power has departed from them; and it only remains now for a fitting opportunity to over- throw the General and his ministry completely ; end, among other indications, is that of the coneervatives, and even Lamartine, paying their devotrons to Louis Napoleon. Thiers aid Camar- tne courtung Napoleon! I believe these are facts heyond diepute ; and I should not be surprised to fird both supporting him for the Presidency. Whether this fact, known among the puonie Weeki increase his chances for an election is more than deubttul; but Napoleon has thus far abstained from all advances. Yesterday he went upon the tri- bune to protest egaint the accusation that he was psisteneen: and he gained there the approbation of the public. The Patrie of this mornmg, a strongly conservative press, says that it needed not his languoge; that his modest and embar- rossed manner was proof enough that he is not a pretender, Ah! the truth is, that all the leading oliticians have tned to kill him off, because they eared the power of his name; but that the de- monstraticn of the people has been so strong in his favor that they are afraid to carry it on any further ; end now the same men that have been abusing him shamefully, are courting him. And now | thirk he is in more danger than when he received their entire opposition. The change of administration, which | now | ances. There wasa strong effort made yester- consider almost certain to take place, must pro- duce en important change in the affairs of Fiance, for there. can hardly be a probability that Napoleon will follow the course of fo- jeign pelicy marked out by General Cavaig- noc, Since the probability 18, therefore, increas- ed in favor of a war for France, over the Ita- } han question, unless through Russia, with whom Nayoleon is allied by marriage, that question should be adjusted. There is little doubt that Nicholas would be glad to see his relative at the heed of the aflairs of France, and that he would lend him the support of Russia to sustain him} ard in the present condition of Europe, the friend- thip or hestility of Russia is not an indifferent matter, for her army and treasury are both in good condition ; her financial embarrassments ore less than those of any other European nation, Perhops I may be mistaken, but I now regard a change of administration in Fiance almost certain. Possibly General Ca- vaignac may continue till a President shall have heen elected by the people; but I do not regard | that as certain, by any means; and I am now pre- paied to see M. Marrast displaced, at the next | vote of the Chamber for President of that body. I think Dofaure may take his place; and Dufaure | hes much more talent than Marrast. Still he may pot make so good a presiding officer. According to the yote yesterday of the Assem- bly, the President of the republic is to be chosen for four years, thirty years old, born French, and in cree of no choice by the people, by an abselute majority of all the votes. The Assembly are to se- Ject frem the five highest candidates to be elected by the people; it will be necessary to have two millions, at least, of votes, That, I think, is a | greater number than Gen. Taylor will obtain in the United States, according to present appear- day, by some members, to render ail military offi- cere ineligible, conetitutionally, to the presiden cf the repubsic, but the amendment was rejected. | ‘The some fate attended an amendment tending to exclude all the descendants of any of the royal | femily. One more proposed to exclude them unto | the sixth degree; but the commission in the constitvtion wheeled into line, and saved every | one the trouble of combatting these amend- ments by declaring that they adjudged it best to oven the field to all before the people, main- taining their decrees of banishinnnt against the two branches, Bourbon and Orleans; but let Join- ville be elected President bythe people, and no Manner of respect would be paid to any decree oF constitutional provision, and the knowledge o' this fact has prevented the commission from at- tempting, constitutionally, to exclude Napoleon. The people have knocked off his fetters, by electing him their representative, in five out of fifteen de- partments, in France. Vox populi, vox Dei, in fact, in Franee, because guns follow, if it is not obeyed. Allis now quiet im France, but I regard the future pregnant with important changes, and great unceriainties. Perhaps all the insurgents will yet be set free, under the new order of things that 1s to be, Panis, October 11, 1848. Constitution— Cavaignac, Na- poleon, §¢. General Cavaignac and his council are in trouble, The Vote on the TWO CENTS. a long time he persisted in his refusal, saying that hus own resignation would not precede forty-eight hours the full of the entire ministry; but, taking him out of the chamber and remonstrating in private with him, he Really consented again to eit upon the ministerial bench. But the power of the cabinet 18 gone, and General Cavaignac wil! be obliged to form anew one, or togive place him- self to some man who will do so. Many causes have conspired to this; the first of all, the ambi- tion, jealousy and love of office of the French; but the extreme violence and folly of the extreme radicals has driven away the majority from them, and given the nght the power in the Assembly— indeed, it has thrown the power into the hands of those who were decided legitimists under Louis Fhilippe, but who have given in their support to the republic. The ministry were re ‘sh icang, all except Lamoriciere, before the revolution, in- cluding General Cavaignachimself, and, unwilling to go to the right, they could not go with the vio- lent leit, and this has left them with but some two hundred members in the whole Assembly ‘o support them; therefore, sometimes they hed the support of one side, and the next day the other, and as the violence of the left has been continued, it has forced the country into the arms of the right. “Prior to- the election of Napoleon at Paris, General Cavaig- nac had declared himself in favor of the election of a Preeident by universal suflrage; after that event, the ministry took ground in favor of an election by the Assembly; ana the right came out violently for an election by universal suflrage by the people, led off by Lamartine; a part of the left went in for an election by the Assembly, and the more ex- treme portion of that body were opposed to having any President. Under these circumstances, the right has overthrown the ministry; and there must be a partial, if not anenture, change. Upon this question, @ majority otf the right are said to have assumed the ground that they will not go into the cabinet without a complete change; that Count Mole took a different ground, and 1s in favor of accepting any call which may be made, even fora partalchange. But the right now have the power, and Ll think they will use it, and that General Ca- vaignae will find it necessary to make an entire change,for to abandon, himeelf, the post he oecu- ples. ; Since the recent speech of Louis Napoleon, all fear of his election to the presidency, or of his attempting the dictatorship, seems to have va- mieheds his"manner was so modest, his embarrass- ment 60 great, and his want of talent, as is said, so evident, that it is now regarded as impossible that he can be President. Perhaps it 1s so, and perhaps itisnotso. The National was terribly severe upon him and his manner. I think it was outrageously so; and will do the government more injury than it will Louis Napoleon. There was a contest to-day in the Assembly, in reference to the sus; ension of the press; the right to de so was sustained but by a majority of only some ten to filteen votes, so that this act will soon be suspend- ed, or reversed, probably, and the press be again at liberty to aid in the commg insurrection, if cer- tain menare able to get up one. The French love order, but they love power and dominion better— the leaders, | mean Theatrical and Musical. Panx Tuxatne.—The “ Neryous Man” and “ Paddy Carey” were presented last evening; the performances being for the benefit of Mr. Power. His Mac Shane, like his other performances, wants that rollicking humor, and that wild, reckless, off hand, devii-may- care tone, which is the chief attraction in other hands d, the may be said of all his par The training necersary to make the accomplished actor is not there. We have no doubt that Mr. Power will toon get rid of there defects: they must be expected in @ novice; and perhaps it will hereafter be better for him that hefdid not at once acquire that stereotyped mediccrity from which it is very difficult to rise. We have reen some who, after undergoing a long theatri- caltraining, appeared on the boards with an uana- tural confidence and a flippancy of action that they never afterwards could get rid of. The stage is the only proper rchool to learm stage business. A thorough stege education commencing in subordinate parte, and going through all the grades of the profession, is absolutely necestary to the formation of a good actor. The tarce of “ Founded on Facts” was played in fine style Jast night. Mr. H. Placide is underlined for Monday evening. Bowsny Tneatnx.—The weather, last evening, was quite unfavorable fortheatres; nevertheless, there was quite a respectable sized audience collected at the Bowery to witness the performance of “ Pisarro,”’ which was produced in most elegant style. Miss Catharine Wemyss, a young lady who has acquired most enviable reputation as an actress, taking the part of Elvira. N.B Clarke as Rolla; Mrs. Jordan.as Cora; and Tilton, J. H. Hall, and the other members of the company, filled the cast of chatacters. Miss Wemyrs was much applauded, and we were greatly pleased seeing how much rhe has improved since her first pearance, a year or s0 ago. She is destined to bee. ® bright ornement to the American stage. The Ne: Orleans Serenaders. and the drama of “Life,” con- cluded the performances. The Serenaders are great favcrites at the Bowery. During the coming week, there be great doings at this popular house. Broapway Tuxarnx.—Again last night was this beautiful theatre crowded to its utmost capacity, to witness the performance of America’s favorite actor— ‘Edwin Forrest. He Sppeared as Spartacus, in the tra- gedy of the “Gladiator,” and so perfeotly was the char- acter performed, that while he was speaking, a death- like tllence pervaded the audience; especially in the scene where Phasarius, (Dyott,) returns, and com nicates the intelligence of the murder of hi and child by the Roman soldiers, he more t ized the hopes of his most ardent ed greatest demonstrations of applause reene.

Nationar Tueatee.—Mr. Rice had @ very good house for his benefit last evening, consideri: weather. We wish, for hissake, it had been more favorable, as he is a capital actor, and deserves all the patronage be gets. “Jack Sheppard” was the first The version of it at the National, is somewhat different from the one usually p one, we think, as it does not place the burgiar’s oceu- pation in such an heroic, light, and, moreover, the evi) tffects of vice are more fully shown. Miss Mestayer tight, natty Jack Sheppard, Chanfrau’s & most comic piece of acting, The other performancer, of Bone Squash,” the “ Kiss in the Dark,” went off well. Several new piecer will be produced next week. and some new faces will also be seen on the National boards, Bunton's TMeatne. —Last evening war set apart fot the benefit of John and Henry Risley ; but Ja conse- quence of the stormy state of the weather, the house was but very slimly attended. The pieces, however, off with the usual éclat. The “Winterbottom: Polka Nationale,’ “Anything for a Change.’ Profesor Risley, with his two nted eons, conclud- ing the entertainments, with ‘New York in Slices;”’ all of which met the good wishes of the sudienve.

Children eannct fail to be delighted with the perform: Of the circle and the well-trained ponies. The sti numerour, and ail the anizals admirably trained.
