ARRIVAL OF THE _ STEAMSHIP CAMBRIA AT BOSTON. dic., Mic, dice ‘The steamship Cambria, Captain Leitch, arrived at Boston yesterday merning, at five o’clock, and a portion of her mails reached this city last evening We regret that all the mails did not arrive. The details of the news which we are now en* abled to give, will be found highly interesting. ~ The news from Constantinople is important. A change in the Turkish ministry has taken place, by which Suliman Pacha, a bitter enemy of Russia, has become Minister of War. A Russian custom- house has been seized by the Turks, who are administering its affairs themselves. It is stated, also, that an Egyptian army is coming up; and everything presents the most warlike appearance. ‘The Presse says that Mr. Brisbane, the American socialist, who has received notice to quit France wm twenty-four hours, has been to the Prefect of Police, and told him that he would not leave France without being compelled by force. Our Liverpool Correspondence. Liverroot, April 14—12 M. The Weather and Agricultwre—Trade—The Ex- tent of Emigration—Ocean Steamers—The Cali- fornia Fever, §., §c. This has been Easter-week, and 10 mistake, for the wind has stuck in, or rather come from, that quarter, with most religious constancy, ever since the Europa sailed this day week ; anda cold, com- fortless week it has been. Yesterday morning, snow fell for two hours. From all accounts, however, the weather has been most seasonable for the purposes of agriculture, and everything of that kind is most promising. The accounts from Manchester are certainly gloomy, ‘The farmers in Ireland, especially in the North, are oyercome with a small mania for flax setting, and, in consequence, the increased demand for sced has caused rise in the price of it in Belfast, Londonderry, and other towns in the North. ‘The express of the New York press, performed on the arrival of the America, has struck the people here with wonder, and is certainly looked upon as an unparalleled achievement Your steamer, the Conqueror, so wonder- fully overcame the ice in the Bay of Fundy, that 1 would suggest her trying her abilities in search of Sir John Franklin and the North Pole. ‘The great movement of the present day is certainly that of emigration from all parts of there parts of her Majesty's dominions, From north, gouth, east, and west, the tides of human beings flow to the common centre, Liverpool, and thence, with ligkt hearts, consi- dering’ the circumstances, these numerous streams form one prodigious river, perpetually rauning west- ward, This mania is by no means confined to Ireland. ‘A proof of this may be had from a perusal of the fol- lowing paragraph from the North British Mail :— “Never, at any former period in the history of this eountry, has emigration taken such a hold on the minds of the people. Emigration is looked to by great num- bers as the only refuge from the vexations and suffer- ings attending the frequent fluctuations of trade,— From Leith, Greenock, the Broomielaw, and other parts of Scotland, vessels are ever and anon jeaving, freight- ed with hundreds of respectable individuals, who are * anxious to better their condition in life, and. to seek that competence and comfort ina distant land which they have tailed to obtain in their own.

The one topic of coaversation, as to domestic matters—the almost engrossing subjects of atten- tion, are the coming elections. It is true that the National Assembly continues daily to vote, article by article, the credits of the budget, and to discuss “with apparent seriousness each item of expendi- ture proposed; that members make speeches having in them loud professions of patriotism, or affording inference that they are prompted by disinterested love of country ; but they are all well aware that the enormous reductions in the expenses of the go- vernment, will be restored by the legislative assem- bly, and that after they have bestowed all possible energy to balance the expenditure and the income, there will be a revival in the new Chamber of that good financial plan of the good old times, when the former will be voted with no very accurate presci- ence, whence the latte is to be derived. Honorable gentlemen condemn, with pious in- dignation, the unconstitutional conduct of the go- vernment in its efforts to maintain order, and found upon their condemnation resolutions that they know will fall unvoted to the ground ; they exclaim against the reactionary tendency of the moderate party, while that, party, are equally “vehement against the revolutionary intentions of their oppo- nents. The moderates and the republicans of the veille, the rouges, the socialists, and the com- munists, are ‘ail making of the Assembly a roiie whereon are played the parts they design to be attractive to the electors of the capital and the pro- vinces, when a recital of their doings will be put forth as a claim to their future return. | This is the secret, this the great eB athe | of all that is now passing in the Assemly ; but ably imagined, as in many cases it doubtless is, and_no less skil- fully executed with the majority of the present members, it will fail of success. ‘The country lan- guishes, and is dying for a consolidation of such a state of things as will restore order, secu- rity and credit. The merchant, banker, manufac- turer, shopkeeper, nay, even in most cases the ope- rative classes, are tired of revolutions which pro- duce no change, and a republic which has brought them nothing but bankruptey, ruin, want of em- ployment, and misery. Men of extreme opinions therefore, will find little favor with the electoral body; and the new Assembly will exhibit the strange anomaly of a republican chamber constitu- ted chalmost every party save republicans. So in- imiecally opposed are the great body of the indeed the whole population except a small mi ty in some few of the larger towns, to the very idea of republicanism, that some of the republicans of the veille, republicans moderate ‘“ per excellence,” heve no hope of being returned, although they have no other objectionable quality than the merely holding republican opinions, and supporting repub- lican institutions, Amongst these are men who have rendered good service to the state. |M. Marie and General Cavaignac ate examples. Both have given wnequivocal evidence of their devotion to order, ard to those principles on which depend the well-being of soci yet neither the one nor the ether has, it is asserted, any ebance, of being re- turn If this be so of men se eminently mode- rate, it may well be imaytined tkat the men who within a month have talked in che chamber of thouldering their muskets and descending into the streete, will find thefy names not very high on the electoral lists when they come to be proclaimed at the Hotel de Ville. Mean- however, not a stone is left unturned, to secure s, by the conflieting parties, They have all d the maxim that “union is strength.” The m of ail shader, have coalesced, and range themselves into one grand party, denominating them- “the party of order,” and the republicans, of tom uniete and scvialirte, have formed to themselves an opposing camp. Electoral tactics have been determined on, by which each party is to avoid losing the chance of a single vote; and the elections which will be the reeult of this arrangement may fairly be predicated as representing the real opinion of the country on the great question of order or disorder, On this one question will issue now be joined. What form or substance the political body may hereafter assume, when it comes to its full manhood, none can venture to predict. How the various members of this political “ corps” will assimilate, or work together, in the future, when its constitution shall have attained its full strength—when the legitimist, who has forgone for the nonce his legitimacy ; the monorchist, who bas for the hour relinquished his pretensions ; the advocate of the regency, who stands aloof for the moment in silent e: pectation ; the imperialist, who regards the Empire as @ thing of course ; and the various other organs of dif- fering opinions, shall feel themselves free to proclaim their views—the most clear-sighted cannot foresee. The country appears disposed to act, for the instant, on the one great principle of a consolidation of order, leaving the events to time and circumstance. Not only are the men afoot, on clectioneering mat- ters, but the fairer sex are no idle spectators of the fray. Itis not their influence, only, which they are disposed to bring to the aid’ of their favored can- didates, but they themselves are fearlessly standin, forward in bold vindication of the unconceded rights o} their sex. Female socialist banquets have been for some time so common, that losing their novelty, they have ceased to excite curiosity ; but now another step in advance, ana lovely woman boldly proclaims her right to “fraternity for woman as as well as men.’? Madame Jeanne Deroin, the heroine of our: present notice, having been for some time an orator at a female club, where she has declaimed for the social advance- ment of woman, and has contended that there should no longer be delay in freeing woman from slavery, and allowing them the same political privileges as men, has now proclaimed her candidateship for the Legislative Assembly, and adorned the walls of Paris with the fol- lowing placard :— “TO THE ELECTORS OF THE DEPARTMENT OF THE SEINE. “ Cinrzes:—I present myself to your suffrages by devotedness to the consecration of a great principle— the civil and political equality of the two sexos. It is in the name of justice that 1 make an appeal to the sovereign people against the negation of princi ples which are the basisof vur social future. If, exercising your right, you call a woman to take part in the Legislative Assembly, you will consecrate in all their integrity our republican dogmas—liberty, equa- lity, fraternity for women as well as men. A Legisla- lative Assembly composed entirely of men is as incom- petent to make the laws which govern our society, com- Posed of men and women, as would be an assem- ly composed of privileged persons to discuss the inte- rests of workmen, or an assembly of capitalists to sup- port the honor of the country. “JEANNE DEROIN, “ Directress of the Journal Opinion des Femmes.” Such is one of the results of the revolution of Feb- ruary, of which Madame Deroin complains as being ‘ity of a great omiwion in not proclaiming the ent ‘anchisement of women, the men haying, she declares, Kept all the privileges to'themselves.” ext to the elections, public interest is excited by the socialist propagandism which is being carried on, particu- larly inthearmy. Socialist agents are employed to take all means of imbuing the troops with the principles advo- cated by M. Proudhon and his colleagues, whose journals and writings are disseminated with all ingenuity and perseverance in the barracks and usual haunts of the soldiers. The most severe orders are issued, with a view of stemming this torrent of indiscipline, and a deadly war is waged against the democratic and social- ist press by the authorities, Several prosecutions have, as you will perceive by the journals, been lately inst tuted against the editors of these journals, in which im- risonment and heavy fines have been imposed on M. Proudlion, M. Duchesne, and others, 'M. Froudhon, to avoid the carrying into effect the sentence of imprison- ment against him, has taken refuge In England, which already holds some of the other notabilities of the re- Yolution of February. But, repression. is not the only means adopted. The placing the antidote by the side of the poison has been suggested; and with a view to effect this, an anti-socialist propaganda has been enter- ed on. Subscriptions on a somewhat extensive scale have been made, with a view of distributing journals and writings opposed to socialism In these subscrip- tions, the names of many ouvriers are found as subscri- bers; and they embrace all classes of persons, from the noble tothe peasant. The committee are performing their functions vigorously; and each reader of socialist essays is now asked to “look on this picture and on that,” and so to form his conclusions as to which party has on its aide truth, and the well-being of man and of society. The subject has furnished some food for the caricaturist, and laughable enough are some of the pro- ductions. One has M, Proudhon writhing in agony in the arms of his concierge, whileda portiere, one of those Hecates #0 common in the porter's lodge of the Paris hotels, is compelling him to read an anti-soclatist journal, and gloating in demoniac pleasure at the pain she inflicts, Amongst the attacks made on the government by the democratic party, in the Assembly, one of the most pro- minent has been that directed against the junction of the command of the National Guards and the troops of the line, in the department of the Seine, in the person of Gen. Changarnier, This attack had’ a twofold ob- ject: one, to render the democratic party favor in the ‘eyes of the electors; and another, to deal out their yen- geance, or, more properly speaking, spite, against the successful repressor of the manifestation and expected outbreak of the 20th January. This party has never forgiven Gen. Changarnier that exercise of energy and rudence. They are said to have hailed him, on coming nto the Assembly, immediately after the vote depri- ving him of his salary, with, “ Well, General, we have done for you!” to which he immediately responded, “ You have done for my salary; but, if you descend into the strects, I shall have the pleasure of thrashing you gratis, and you will find the thrashing not less effec- tual.’ The government have, however, made him re- compense, by according him the grand cordon of the Legion of Honor ; and the people have signified their sense of the vote, by opening a subscripiion to replace his ralary, which ho, in his high-minded independence, has declined to accept. A measure legalizing the ap- ointment has been introduced by the Minister of the interior, which is threatened with all the epposition the democratic party can bring to bear against it. Of those who have rendered themselves conspicuous in the Socialist ranks, is an American of the name of Brisbane, whose advocacy of the doctrines of that sect, and whose political affinities have called down upon him an order of the government to quit France. His worth to that party may be estimated by the following “lament,” which is published by “Le Peuple,” the organ of Socialism : — * Our friend Brisbane, a citizen of the United States, has just received from the amiable police of the Minis- ter of the Interior, an order to quit France in twenty- four hours, and never to return there—add, as long as these gentlemen are there. It ought to’ be so; the apostle of liberty and socialism, after having run through America and Europe, examining the great revolutionary events, animating his friends of ever country by a recital of what he had seen and heard, Brisbane had come and fixed himself at Paris, as the centre of the great, movement of ideas which ‘carries away the world in its whirlwind, and which vivifled his noble intelligence. He committed the unpardonable crime of being present at some socialist banquets, and one of his speeches was the occasion of that magnificent reply of M. Ledru-Rollin, which, on Feb. 25th, at the le Martel, electrified 2,000 persons, in branding with infamy ‘infamous capital.’ Was more required to point out this new citizen of the two worlds to the persecution of the police? Adicu, then, friend, but only for a short time! And_you, M. Louis Bonaparte, when, in place of a peaceful apostleship, you made Switzerland and England the centre of your wretched imperialist conspiracies, what would you have said, if you had been turned out, as you do now, or as you per- iit to be done, citizen Brisbane, the countryman of ‘Washington and Franklin 2”” Propriety has been somewhat seandalized by the pub- lication in some of our journals of a manifesto, said to have been ineerted in one of the New York journals, offering premia for the assassination of the Emperor of Austria, the King of Prussia, and other notables, Some severe strictures have been made upon it, but the chat- itably disposed are inclined to believe that no such manifesto could ever haye been published in any paper of the United States, There is little to report ag regards the fashionable Teoria. Le Prophete' of Meyerbeer Is to appear on Mon- day. ‘In my despatch of Thursday next I shall be able to send you some account of it. re tions are being made for the quinquen- nial exhibition of the products of Froneh industry. A magnificent building hus been erected in the Champ Elysées, near the Rondo Pointe, covering a large space of ground. The exhibition will open on the Ist of June, and about the same time will be exhibited at the Tull: leries, the works of living artists, so that Paris will be, at that period, renderod very attractive to foreign visi- ters. A proposition was made to open the former exhi- bition to the products of foreign industr; os jected; determination not exactly in ‘accordance with fraternity, nor quite consistent with republican iberality. 4 ; ij Pants, April 12, 1849. The Bourse and Money Market. After a setuement, rendered so difficult as that of the end of the last month by the immense fluc- tuations that had occurred, it might reasonably have been expected that. prices would have fallen considerably. In fact, there were seme large de- liveries of stock to be made, which prevented any advance of prices, and quotations could not have been maintained in the early part of the present month, Lut by means of forced sales made on account of two large speculators, who could only Beye part of their diflerences for the month of March, and who were sellers for the end of the month ef April. These selee brought the rentes above 90; but at that price stock beeame abun dant, and hence a difference begween transactions forgeash and account rose, of nearly one frane. Since the settlement is terminated, prices have undergone little variation. It is true they have not since continued at 90, because at that quot tion art amounts of stock are thrown on the market by sellers, who hope to come in again at lower rates; but in spite of the large offers that are made at that quotation every Bourse, the fall has not m: he sensible progress. Foreign sewn, a though some of importanee has been rece such as the surreuder of Genoa, and the re- newal of hostilitaes between Denmark and Prussia has not bad much effeey at the Bourse.

Before the defeat of Charles Albert’s army, an insur- rection had broken out at Brescia, the finest city in Lombardy after Milan. The citadel fired upon the town during the 24th and 25, but on the 26th it was taken by storm, and the gatrison put to the sword. The Austrians have taken a terrible revenge. The Opinione of Turin, of the 5th inst., states itis now » Beap of ruins. The population held out for eight days. General Hayneau arrived there on the 30th ult. trom Padua. He gave the citizens two hours to surrender. At tho expiration of that time, he commenced a bombardment which lasted six hours. The resistance of the people was of the most desperate character. ‘The town was covered with barricades raised to the second story of the houses. Those barricades were successively carried by the bayonet after a sanguinary contest. Every inch of gprount was disputed with fury. The massacre on both sides was enormous. The inhabitants who sur- vived entrenched themselves in some houses, houses were set fire to, and the inhabitants we e burned alive. Brescia has not suffered so severely since the year 1512, when it was carried by assault by the French ‘under the command of Gaston de Foix. The Opinione, of Turin, of the 6th inst., says that the Austrians have taken thirty of the most distinguished inhabitants of Brescia as hostages. Camozzi, chief of the insurrection, has retired into the mountains, with a few of his fellow citizens, carrying with him the Au: trian commandant of the fort as a prisoner, The inhabitants of Cosne, on hearing of the disasters of Brescia, had laid down their arms. Bergamo, after a resistance of some days, has capitulated. ‘The inha- bitants had been condemned to pay a fine of two mil- lions of dollars. THE RRVOLT IX GENOA. A popular movement, oat reference to the armis- tice, commenced at Genoa on the 28th ult. The people resisted the entry of an approaching Piedmontese corps under General La Marmora; and the movement was succumbed to by the authorities, who allowed the National Guards to et cee of the two principal forts. The people seized upon General Ferretti, the governor, and imprisoned him, because he endeavored to suppress the insurrection, For four days the city was entirely in the hands of the populace. A eom- mittee of defence was formed, and invested with un- limited powers, They published an address to the deputies, lately dismised at Turin, to resume their sittings at Genoa. They declared their determination not to separate from Piedmont, but that they would not, recognise the armistice concluded with Radetsky. On the 2d, after a murderous combat, which lasted for several hours, the Piedmontese General who had the commaud of the garrison, was obliged to capitulate, The combat commenced on the evening of the 1st, and continued without interruption during the whole of the night, the inhabitants having been forced by the insurgents to illuminate their houses, in order toenable them to eerry on their operations. Both sides seem to have fougat with great energy; and in consequence of the strong positions held by the troops the result was for along time doubtful; but at length, towards ten in the morning, General de Azarta, finding that the strength of the insurgents was rather increas- ing than diminishing, while he himself, being cut off from all hope of reinforcements, was obliged to capitu- late. The lives of the troops were spared, and the whole ofthe men were allowed to quit the place with their arms, and with all the honors of war. Lord Hard- wicke is spoken of with praise by the Genoa papers, as having contributed in obtaining favorable terms for the troops, and having prevented the horrors and excesses which might be expected as the consequence of the popular triumph, A royal ordonnance, dated the 3d, declared Genoa in a state of siege, ana Syeolt General Lu Marmora to the command of tue place, with all authority, eivil and military, Letters from Genoa of the 4th inat., announce that on that day General La Marmora arrived before the city with a force of 34,000 men, and that he had estab- lished a blockade of the place, On the 6th, the city was attacked, and, after ® sanguinary confilct in the streets, capitulated. Private letters add that a com- promise or capitulation had been previously agreed upon between the provisional government of Genoa and the general. It isaaid, however, that the report of the complete capture of Genoa was premature. THE PREPARATIONS FOR WAR BETWEEN NAPLES AND SICILY. Mr. Temple and M. de Rayneval returned to Naples on the 28th March, with the ultimatum of the Sicilian Council; the council rejected the proposed offers, and ave notice that the government of Palermo, consider- fog the armistice at “an end, would itself commence hostilities on the 29th. ‘The Official Journal of Palermo, of the 26th ult. con- tains a proclamation from M, Calvi, Minister of Public Worship and Justice, announcing the recommence- ment of hostilities, and inviting the people to pray to the Almighty for ‘success to their arms, It also pub- lishes a letter to the said minister from the President of the Ecclesiastical Assembly, announcing that tho said body has divided itself into four committees—the first to direct preachers to animate the people of the towns and the army in the national cause; the second, to collect alms; the third, to assist the wounded in the hospitals; and the fourth, to administer the last sacrament to the dying, in the towns as well as on the field. The Liberta, of Naples, states from Palermo, that great preparations for war were going on there. The Sicilian army is to amount to 40,000 men; an ord- nance manufactory 1s established at Palermo, which furnishes ten twelve-pounders per month.’ Large French ordnance {s placed to defend the port. The fortifications around Palermo are actively carried on. Ditches, parapets, mines, and barricades, are construct- ed under the direction of the military engineers. 40,000 persons of all ranks, peasants as well as nob men as well as women, are at work there, The Blockade of Venice. The Paris Mon:teur announces the blockade of Venice by the Austrian naval forces, Tke blockade was estab- lished on the 31st ult. Letters from Venice state that a skirmish took place on the 26th ult., between a party of Austrians, who had occupied the Cavazuccherina, where they wanted to impose # contribution of 6,000 livres, and a party of Venetian troops, who came up just in time to stop their proceedings, The Austrians had several mon wounded, and were forced to retreat, Rome. The last accounts from Rome, of the S0th ult., state that all communication was interrupted between tho Roman dominion and Naples. The Triumvirate in- tended at one moment to transfer the seat of thelr gu- yernment to Ancona; but as Rome would inevitably dcelare against them if abandoned to iteclf, they had renounced that intention The War in Schleswi, AMERICAN NAVAL OFFICERS IN THE GE! AN SERVICE. On the 2d instant, the Danes renewed the Schleswig. Holstein war, without any intimation to the mediating arties; but ‘their first effort was disastrous. On the Eiinstant, the Danish ships of war began to capture German yeseels; whilst bodies of Danish troops ad- yanced from Jutland, and crowed over from the island of Alsen, into Bcbleewig, driving before them the Schleswig-Holstein troops, by whom it was occu- pled; but, on the approach of large bodies of Prus- sian’ and’ other German troops, they appear to have | suspended their advance; and those which had crossed over from Alsen are stated to haye returned to that island. Meanwhil in expedition, undertaken by the Danish Davy, against the port of Eckernforde, near the southern extremity of the duchy, bas had a very disastrous ter. mination. The harbor of Eckernforde is one of the numerous estuaries on the east coast of Schleswig, about ten miles north of the Eyder; the town lics on the southern shore, upon a promontory which closes ia the extremity of ‘the inner harbor. Into thls very awkward position the Danish squadron deliberately sailed on the morning of the 4th instant, with an cast- erly or north-easterly wind, which rendered it extreme- ly difficult for large sailing vessels to effect a retreat. A severe cannonade took place, whieh lasted for fire hours, in the course of which no great mischief sect to have been done to the insurgents, or their Germ auxiliaries; but the Christian VIII, ran aground, and the frigate had her rudder shot away. In this critical ation, @ truce of two hours was granted to the Danish admiral by the German commander ; but the Danes seem to have been unable to quit the harbor, and the Germans employed that interval of time to prepare batteries of hot shot for the destruetion of the yeesels. In this enterprise they wore, of cour: coseful. the ships being literally entrapped, and ingly, the Danish man-of-war was set on fire, and at length exploded with a frightful loss of life, A’ portion of the crew were raved by the humane exertions of the Duke of Saxe Migs A movement on laffd also failed, and these defeats will, it is supposed, insure @ negotiation for peace, Commodore Perry, of the United States Marines, has accepted the (ise declined by Commodore Parker, of Commander of the German Navy. A number of Ame- rican naval officers are ready to enter the Gerwan ser- vice. There haa been a serious affair on the Sundewitt, at Viderup. The German account is very short, Ite that 5,000 German troops, mostly Hanoverians, were oppo to double the number of Danes, but on whieh tude she victory was in not ald. THE LATEST. ‘The news of the defeat of the Germans by the Danes is confirmed. The fermer are feven said to have lovt rixteen picece of artillery, and many soldiers as pri- soners. ‘The English steamers from Hull would not be allowed entrance into Hamburgh after 12th April. The Danes are stated to have eaptured twenty-eight German cbips. THE CAUSE OF THE RENEWAL OF THE WAR IN SCHLESWIG. [From the London Times, April 13. A story is current in the diplomatic world, with re- ference to the immediate cause of the resumption of hostilities by the Danes, and the proclamation of the blockade of the German ports, which admirably illus- trates the mode in which these important duties of » mediator have been discharged, ‘The armistice between Denmark and Germany had already been denounced, and was to ‘inate on the 2d of April, when a courier from Copenhagen arrived in London on the 26th of March, who was the bearer of the final propositions of the Danish government in answer to the conditions of- fered by the German plenipotentiary, This communica- tion was immediately forwarded to the British Secretary for Foreign Aftairs as the mediating power, and it was of the more importance, not only from the nature ofits con- tents, but because the Danish courier was strictly order- ed to leave London, with or without an answer, 0 as to reach Copenhagen again before the conclusion of the armistice. This period of time, short in itself, and de- cisive as to the settlement of the question, gradually assed away The courier left London, no notice aving been taken of the communication, and his re- turn to Denmark was the signal for the precipitate de- parture of that expedition which has cost the lives of several hundred brave seamen, and the Danish fleet two ofits finest ships, At length, on the 20th March, the Queen happened to hold a drawing-room, at which some sort of personal explanation took place between the Ministers and the diplomatists, It was then ascer- tained that the all-important despatch of the Danish overnment; upon which the question of peace and war urned, had not been opened or read by Lord Palmerston during the interval of two of three days allowed for the answer. No answer at all was therefore given, The German plenipotentiary remained in total ignorance that any such proposals had been made, as, on the other hand, the Danish plenipotentiary docs not seem to havo been clearly apprised of the extent of the eon- cession made in his favor, Thus the messenger of actual war was allowed to leave this country, because it had not suited the convenience of an English mi- nister to read a letter. So large a part may “inad- yertence” play in the affairs of nations, Hungary and Austri VICTORIOUS PROGRESS OF THE INSURGENTS. The Vienna journal, Die P contains a positive contradic ral Bem’s defeat by the Russians, and the flight of his troops into Walla- chia, It appears, on the contrary, that the Austrian general, Puchner, surrounded by w hostile population, and hard pressed by the Magyar irregular forees, has thought proper to resign bis command and place him- self under the protection of the Russians in Wallachia, He was accompanied by three other Austrian generals, and his troops were left to the care of General Kalliani, The Russian forces at Kronstadt were very short of ammunition, and preparing to recross the frontier and return to Wallachia. ‘Their baggage had already left for that province. General Bem was almost undis- turbed in the possession of the whole of ‘Transylvania, and preparing to take Kronstadt, the last city in that kingdom which is still held by the Austrian and Russian troops. General Dembinaki has led his troops across the Danube, and threatens the city of Weissenberg, on the high road to Ofen. In short, the position of the Austrians in Hungary and the Crownlands is as despe- rate as it can be, aud the Breslauer Zeitung asserts that the news from Hungary hus produced a stunning effect in Vi All Transylvania is in possession of the rebels, with the exception of Kronstadt, where there is a small Rus- sign garrisen General Welden is no longer at Comorn.

CROWN—AMBIGU- OUS CONDUCT OF THE KING The Frankfort deputation to King Frederick William arrived at Berlin on the 2d inst. ‘The two Chambers both framed addresses to the king, beseeching him not to decline the call of the German National Assemt and urging him to fulfil the hopes of the German peo- ple, to.conquer all difficulties, and to take in his strong hand the guidance of the destinies of the Fatherland, ‘The address of the First Chamber was carried with ouly three dissentient voices; that of the second, being an amendment on one prepared by # radical majority in committee, was carried by 156 to 151, The King of Prussia received the Frankfort deputa- tion on the 3d inst., and replied to the address of the Assembly at Frankfort, with a conditional refusal of the nperial crown.

By a singular fa- tality. the committee of twenty-one members was 80 eomposed as to contain an equal number of the right and left, and one neutral. ‘Two addresses were propar- od, one by Vinekeand the other by K rchmann, Both urged the king to accept at once the proitered dignity, but each, as usual, contained the expression of a prin- ciple unpalateable to the rival party. ‘The result was, that neither address was passed, In consequence of a telegraphic message which was received from Count Brandenburg, at Potsdam, the first chamberheld an extraordinary sitting on the 4th, to hear from Count Arnim the altered determination of king. In consideration of the situation of the Fatherland, and that the Archduke John had, in conse quence of illness, resigned, his majesty was ready, upon the proposal of the princes, and with the consent of the National Assembly, to take upon himself the provision. al charge of standing at the head of the central power. ‘The most urgent request was addressed to all the go- yernments to send immediately plenipotentiaries to Frankfort, to decide, Ist, Upon the ion of the king; 2d, Upon the relative position of the governments to the German constitution.
