M.—An estaffette has just been received at the town hail, announcing the immediate arrival of one thousand Prussians, A cessation of hostilities took place on the 6th, but fighting was renewed on the 7th inst. ‘The following are the very latest wecounts received in London, via Berlin :— Bratix, May 8, 1849. After a truce of twenty-four hours, fighting was re- newed onthe 7th, At -Leipsic, the military have put down the insurrection. but the contagion has spread to Breslau, where fighting las commenced between the eople and the troops, The Prussian goverament has issued orders for troops of all arms to march upon Dreeden, although the reports received this morning announce that the Saxon garrison, aided by the ‘ight infantry battalion of the Alexander guards, had al- ready rendered themeelves masters of three parts of the old iown, defended by the insurgents, and were draw- ing completely round the Altmarkt, which had been converted by enormous barricades into a fortress. In lieu of sacriticing life in beer | these barricades in front, the pioneers cut their way from house to house, whilst the artillery keep a heavy fire of shot and shell upon the impediments. The following is a summary of the operations given in the evening edition of the German Reform, the best- informed journal of Berlin :— About the half of the Altstadt (occupied by the re- bels) is in the hands of the troops. Dispositions are made not to attack the Altmarkt and Schloss-stteet, all formidably barricaded in front, but to move round and enclose them with a continually advancing wall of troops. For this purpose, the artillery is kept playing upon the barricades and contiguous houses, whilst tho | wings advance. The right wing mastered the house last evening,the left was pushing on to the FI schanen (butcher market), Tho ful. The whole of the Altstadt is probably at this time in possession of the troops. It is doubtful whether, but unlikely, that a combat will take place in the suburbs of the Altstadt with the Communal Guard assembled there, who have hitherto conducted themselves rather tranquilly. At all events, the greater part of the fugi- tives will fall into the hands of the 3d Saxon cavalry, which has surrounded the southern side. Prussian troops are on the march, not only from Gorlitz, but the third Pruesian husewrs, with four fleld pieces, are mov. ing on Dresden with the utmost «peed, and wi to-morrow morning, (Wednesday, the 8th ) soners have been taken. aud the loss of the insurgonts isnot known, On the other hand, the Alexander Guard battalion has only lost one officer, (Lieutenant de Lie- behen,) and one fusileer killed, one non-commissioned officer and two privates slightly wounded. It is stated that of the rebel triumvir, T'zschirner alone remains at the head of the so-called provisional goternment; his two colleagues have coucesled themselves or fled. "The former has put forth a proclamation promising the trea- sures of the celebrated grone gewelbe to the populace, if victors, “Let us hold together,” he says, “only two duys, and the German republic will have received its baptiem of blood.” According to the latest accounts, the troops wore steadily and surely pressing torward, but not with un- due precipitation, ‘Ihe object is triumph with the least risk of life. und the greater certainty of ultimate success. The defence is obstinate, and each house re- quires to be stormed. ‘The separation walls are con- sequently broken through, and passage thus effected with less exposure, In one of those houses, Heintze, the so-called commander of the insurgents, was taken, At the departure of the courier he was undergoing ex- amination before the Minister of War. It js rumored that the whole town would be conquered this evening. ‘the Furilier Battalion of the 24th foot, which left Berlin last evening. reached Dresden this morning, at 5, without the flightest impediment. Tlook upon this but as the commencement of a go- neral rising in all parts of Germany. The Prussian Staats Anzeiger announces the resig- nation of Count Arnim, Mimster of Foreign Affairs, ‘The portfollio is entrusted, ad interim, to Count Bran- denburg. THE EFFECT OF THE STRUGGLE IN FRANKFORT. The excitement ull this bas produced at Frankfort is very great, ‘The sitting ot the National Assembly of Frankfort, of the 7th inst,, was extremely violent. After the re- Jection. by majority of 209 ngainst 140, of a proposi- tion of M. Werendonek for the immediate election of a commander-in-chief of all the troops of the empire by the Central Power; demanding, also, that all the troops of the empire should, without delay. take the oath of allegianee to the Central Power, and imperial commis- faries be sent into the different States to see the rame enforced; after the rejection of this motion, an adidrexs was read coming from the eelf-elected provisional go- verpment of Saxony. This address invoked the aseist- ance of the Arrembly, and gave rise to a eeries of mo- tions to induee the Central Power to afford energetic assistance to the Insurgents of Dresden, and to oppose the armed intervention of Prnasia, ‘The extreme left immediately moved, in very decided language. that the central power immediately take mentures for the Fupport of the new Saxon government, by placing military at their command, and by prohi biting all interference onthe part of Prussia, A vote of thanks was also moved to the Saxon people, (great ex- eitemcnt on the left andin the galleries.) ort= elseh- sult is not doubt- ve 18 summoned from all ) their hearths, be thore | Ten pri- | Gagern intreated the honse to await the report of the imperial commissary, Von Watzdorf. jetsch urged the Assembly not “to leave tho Saxon bmg gs in the lurch.” Better would it be for members 0 be off at once. than todo so. Loud applause ensued in the people’s gallery. The excitement of the house rose to a great height, and the President found it necessary to suspend the sitting for balf an hour. The ritting was resumed at half-past two. P. M., and afters brief but warm debate, a motion of Soiron’s, for referring all the motions relating to the Saxon affair to the imperial ministry, and recommending the speedy adoption of such measures as might be necessary, was carried by a fair majority. The house adjourned immediately, i. @., at three P, M_, omid hisses and cries of “shame” from the gallery. Never was the aspect of the House, says @ corres- pondent, not even on the 16th of Septomber, so ominous. ‘Three times the Presidext had to rebuke the galleries in a formal speech. He bad also to call Gagern himself to order for applying the expression “ boyish laughter,’ or some similar term, to the ridicule in which the Left indulged, when, deprecating the mistrust with which the ministry were regarded as unfair, he said if a civil war were to break forth, he would throw himself between the contending parties, He begged the President's pardon for baving allowed the above expression to ¢s- cape him, adding that it was difficult to restrain him- self when his patriotism wag thus called into question. Vogt, in a very animated speech. supported Wesen- donek’s motion. e » two remarkable statements —the rensation they caused in the House was a power- ful one ; first, that the King of Saxony had been on the point of signing the constitution; that the printed dclaration of bis majesty was already in the court printing-office, when a Prussian adjutant arrived, and begged him not to yield. In consequence of this, he swerved again from his purpose, and then it was that the fearful combat commenced, Secondly, he kuew that a Wurtemberg minister had told members of that House that the hing of Wurtemberg had received, some days ago, a private letter from the Archduke A*ministrator, in which the Archduke urged the King not to give way. and insisted on the principle of accord, asthe only means by whieh a constitution could be framed, No one,” said Vogt, with increased warmth, “dare come forward, and deny that; the truth of the statement is as clear as the sun at noon-day. There are witnesses hire.’’ (pointing to the Left.” Cries of “Traitor, traitor,” in the galicry,) Gagern said it was only a pity that a private note, which bad uo bearing in any way upon the Administrator's official capacity, should have been made the subject of censure in that rostrum. Time does not allow me to say more of this remarkable sitting ‘Thirteen Bavarian and one Prwssian deputy an- their resignation. 8 OF RUSSIA—THE ENTRANCE OF THE COS- (RIA—THE HUNGARIAN WAR, ETC. entrance of a Russian army of 120,000 men into stria, against the Hungarians, isfully confirmed. ‘The following is the latest intelligence from Vienna :— Vinwna, May 5, 1849, ‘The Emperor arrived from Olmuts early this morn- ing, quite unexpectedly. At the railway terminus he got into a hackney coach, and drove to the summer pallace of Schonbrunn. ‘The strict incognito observed by his Majesty, and the fuct of his coming alone and unattended. gave rise to various rumors, none of which had a particle of truth in them, The fuct is simply this :—"The Emperor js heartily sick of Olmutz, ‘and come to place himself at the head of his army in Hui gary. ‘The rest of the imperial family will foliow short- ly. with the whole ceurt. It is supposed the Emperor will remain here a few days, receive deputations: and the like, and then set off for head-quarters, which I imogine will be in Presburg. ‘There is. talk of the arrival of no less a personage than the Emperer Nicholas, who will also proceed to the theatre of war, but | am’ not aware of any reason for crediting the report. I have no fresh intelligence to communicate. ‘There has been a council of war held at Presburg, attended by Prince Schwartzenburg, Wel- den. and the Russian Licutant General Berg (others say Freitag) ; but of course the public know nothing of what took place The head-quarters of Welden, now at Carleburg, (the seat of the family Zichy Ferra- ris.) are about being transferred to Presburg. The chief of the Russian staff will, | underseand, be qui tered at Scblosshof, a village with an imperial palace and park, situated midway between this and Presburg. on the left Danube bank, Most people are of opinion that the Russians will not attempt to share with us the honors of the first grand set-to with the Magyars, but will remain passive apectators till either attacked themselves, or called upon to interpose. What they may doin Southern Hungary, is quite another ques- tion. ‘The long looked for note, which is to satisty the radicnls, and allay the fears of the Schwarr-gelben, (Anglice, the well-meaning conservative patriots,) has not yet come to light. You must be aware by this time that the siege of Co- morn bus been abandoned by our troops ‘The Magyars have now their outposts along the Raab, onthe right Danube bank.

IMPORTANT FROM FRANCE AND ITALY. ‘The political events which have exercised the great- ert influence on the funds during the week, are those connected with France and Italy. Ihave already informed you of the departure of a French expedition te Italy, with tho ostensible purpose of helping the Romans to restore their Pope. ‘The Ro- mans, however, have received their French friends with a shower of bullets. have driven them back from the banks of the yellow Tiber, and are determined to resist, A Nespolitan and an Austrian army are by this at the ates of the Imperial City, which is, ere this, in the fiends of ono or all parties, “The best joke Is, that the Pope refused to be restored by foreign bayonets. It report speaks true, the old Roman blood is up. “The Gauls are at the gates of Rome,” and the Romans are going to act Horatius Cocles over again, and defend I send you extracts from a correspon- dence published by a morning paper, written by a well informed person at Rome; the latest intelligence is, however, contained in the despatches from Paris, the news being telegraphed from Marseilles, ‘This defeat of the French has given rise to the most violent debates in the French Aseembly. ‘There were reports last Friday ef a check received by General Oudinot at the gates of Rome, but the thing appeared go improbable that no one would believe it We have it now, however, on the authority of the French government itself, and the news is confirmed b the following extracts from a Toulon paper, from whic! it will be seen that the French have had 180 men killed and 400 wounded, ‘The Sentinelle of Toulon says:— We have received news trom Rome by the Veloce, which left Civita Vecchia on the Ist. ‘Tho army set out on its march on the 28th ult., and, in spite of the | obstacles which it met with on its way, arrived on the | S0th under the walls of Rome, ‘The general-in-chief sent forward Captain Oudinot with a flag of truce, but he was eeized and detained, Our soldiers then ad- vanced. and were received with firing from some houses in which a numberof Lombards and other Italians had entrenched themeclves. Our troops returned the fire; | but from the moment that aresistance sppeared det | mined on, the general-in-chief withdrew his troops to- wards Castelgindo, four leagues from Rome. He would not perhaps have advanced, had he seen the slightost resistance on the part of the Italians, He does not in- tend engaging in any undertaking before receiving re- inforcements from France, and,above all, siege-artillery, A rumor has been in circulation here that we have lost G00 men, but that is inexact. We have bad only one man killed and twenty-five wounded, The came journal, in a subsequent parngraph, has the following, which, however, is probably greatly ex- aggerated By the frigate Orenoque, which has arrived this even- ing (Thursday) from Civita Vecehia, which she quitted | on the 2d at noon, we have received new details respect- ing the situation of our expedition.

Our army bas retired to St. Paolo. a league end a half from Rome, ‘The news of the defeat of the French expedition caused # great sensation in Varia, In the sitting of the Astembly, of Monday, the 7th instant, the following important dircursion took place :— THE DERATE IN THE FRENCH 79H INSTANT. ‘The Presipent—ihe tribune i¢ to M.

He had, however, provicurly spoken to the Minister of Foreign Affairs on the pul jeet. and bad learned from him that the intelli. gence which the government bad received was not rufliciently preeise to allow him to ecme forward and pak to ihe Assembly on the subj But the quea- tion appeared to bins (M.

The honorabie gentlman then gave a rketeb of the proceedings at- tendrnt on the landing of the Freneh troops at Civita Veeehi: dd argued that the oonduet of the Genoral-in- Chiet was anything but that of the leader of bane force. The Frefect of Civile Veechia bad been suspen ed, and in a proclamation which was issued the next ASSEMBLY OF TIE day, it was stated that had not the Freneh troops been amicably received, an entrance would have been made good by force, (marks of dissent from various parts of theechamber.) The bonorable gentleman then alluded to the resistance munitested ut Rome. and declared that the responsibility of the blood of the unfortunate soldiers of France who had tallen, must fall on the Ministers who bad directed the French troops to march to Rome, (Tremendous cheering on the left here burst forth.) The Minister of Foreign Affairs, when inter- Fogated two days back by the committee of foreign irs. had declared that the French troops had been called on to advance to Rome by the population. Far trom that. however, it appeared now beyond any doubt that the French corps, far from being Teceived with a friendly feeling. had found barricades drawn up in their way, and had been obliged to retreat, and remain at some distance from the point at which they had at first arrived. Yet, notwithstanding this sad catastrophe, the government, the evening before, in the Putrie, which was the organ of its communications, (laughter) and in the Moniteur of that morning, had spoken of the matter as to a certain extent unimportant, He, how- ever, thought it exceedingly grave, as here was = body of French troops looked on in Italy as intruders. as foreigners—for certainly the French were so to the Italians—nay, as robbers who entered the country with- out leave, and contrary to the wish of the people. The honorable gentleman then proceeded to read from the Moniteur. passuges trom the speeches of M. Drouyn de Lhuys and M. O. Barret, with a view to show that the present conduct of the French troops in Italy, was altogether at variance with the language then used. If the ministry had then entertained any concealed thought, he, for hts part, must de- nounee such eonduct as shameful, and highly disrespectful to the Assembly. (fear, hear, hear.) At all events this was certain, that the position of the expeditionary corps was most eritical, and whether it had arisen from neglect ox treason. was to him alto- gether indiflerent—(cheers on the left.) The charac- ter of the Freneh army had been debased. and its co- lors sullied by the check thus given to the corps under General Oudinot.

He repeated it, the position of the French troops was most critical, He had before him a private letter. and an article which would be published next day in @ public Journal, declaring that five assaults had been given by the French troops at the barricades, though without iecess; that 150 men had been killed and 600 woun ed—(movement). Such was the bulletin of the la: act of the expeditionary column to Rome. If the As- sembly, under such circumstances, did not protest, by 4 coluinn vote, against the conduct of the government. the influence of France would be lost in Europe. and the expeditions of the monarchy to support the cause of liberty would be found infinitely more worthy of praise than those of the republic. The honorable gen- tleman then alluded to the fact of France having for- merly sent troops to America, to that country from, he uid, English tyranny. and concluded by cali- ing on the ministry to come forward and declare what course it now intended to pursue, under the sad cir- cumstances which he had spcken of—(loud cheers on the left M. O. Baxnor, the President of the Council, thought that before any representative came forward to bring serious charges egainst n ministry, he ought to examine carefully whether his facts were true. What had been the wishes of the Assembly when the question of the Roman republic had been discussed? Was it that the Freneh republic ought to admit a conjoint responsibili- ty with the republic of Rome? No; on the contrary, iis vote went the other way, It had decided that France should abstain from all active interference in the affairs of the Roman republic. No doubt M. Ledru Rollin had advocated another line of conduct—had thought that the republic ought to aid another, as being the only means of defending liberty throughout the world. ‘The government refured to adopt any such line of conduct, and the Asrembly spproved of what it had decided on Why then did France interfere in the affairs of Italy, and send adivision to Civita Vecchia? Because she could not allow another great power of Europe tointer- fere alone in the affairs of Rome. The honorable minis. ter then expresred bis disapprobation of the manner in in which M. J. Favre had endeavored to irritate the minds of the Assembly by bringing forward exaggera- ted accounts of the position of the French division In Italy, and cf the losses which it had sustained. He could declare that the government had not received other intelligence than what had been published, the te- legraphic despatch having been stopped short by the darkness. The me@tikely solution of the affair at Rome was, that the army had fallen into some snare. As to thinking that the Geneial in Chief had departed from hi instructions, he would not believe that. such was the care; the cause of the attack must have been diffe- rent. In conclusion, the honorable gentleman declared thut to name a committee such as was proposed would be anti-constitutional. as it would be judging without due knowledge of the facts, and he expressed his con- viction that the Assembly would not accede to the course proposed. Grn, pe Lamonrcrens. suid, that certainly the affair was grave. It had been decided in the committee of foreign affairs, that a position skould be taken up at Civita Vecchia, even by force. It had also bren decided, that if Austria marched on Rome, or if the Roman popula- tion required the advance of the French troops, an advance should be made on that city. Knowing.as he did, the cha- racter of General Oudinot, he must imagine that he had been deceived as to the wishes ot the Romans, and #0 had advanced. He could not see that anything could be decided until further information arrived, but he did not ree that there could be any objection to exhibit the instruetions given to the General-in-chief to a com- mittee. M. FLocon read some letters which, he said, had been received from ‘Toulon. giving accounts of the affair at Reme They gave the details such as M tpoken of, One of tl i sustained by the French troops, declared Freneh inhabitants at Rome would fight against the new comers; also, that now the barricades were erected, the declaration that the Fronch republic would respect ail nationalities should be adhered to, M. Drovyy px Lauys, the Minister of Foreign Affairs raid that M. J. Favre wished to bring forward # sort of law against suspected persons, and to pumish on mere surmise. For his part. he could say that the General had acted with the utmost loyaity, and he was quite ready to appear before any committee and explain his conduct, and state w instructions were given to Generai Oudinot, M. J. Faves: eupported his proposition for the appoint- meut of a committee. M. O. Bannor agreed to the committee. It was then decided that the representatives should at once withdiaw to the bureaux, and appoint the com- mittee as propored The committee was appointed, and the result was a defeat of the ministry, ‘The Ar:embly met again a 9 o'clock at night. M., Srnaxv read the report, which, after some prelim!- nariex, states that the majority of the committee consi- der that the direction given to the expedition is not conformable to the idea in which is was conceived and accepted, ‘The instructions given to the general com- manding the expedition appear to us to be different from the declarations made in the tribune by the go- verpment ‘Lhe general appears, also, to have gone be- yond his instructions. since he has attacked the Roman republic consequence, the committee proposes the following resolution: ‘The National Assembly invites the government to take, without delay, the mewsures necessary that the expedition to Maly shail not he any longer turned aside from the object for resigned. m was strongly opposed by M.

The result was recvived with loud cries of “Vive la Rupr biique.” from the opposition, ‘he mort injudicious step of all followed. In defiance of the National Assembly, the Moniteur ni published the letter of the President to General Oudi- not. (given in the New York Herald on Saturday last.) The letter of the President of the Republic, say: well informed person at Yaris, to General Oudinot the ceneral eubject of conversation here to-day, and { has excited the utmost indignation among the republi- cans, and ecially among the members of the Assem- bly. who are attacked in the letter in question. I: certainly dees appear extraordinary that the chief magistrate of the republic should throw so disdainful # defiance as this letter is, in the teeth of the representa- tives of the nation, It is only on Monday that a majo- rity of the Assembly declared that the expedition to Civita Veechia bad been turned by the government to objects different from those arsigned to it by the Assem- Diy itself, and called upon the government to take mitasures, without delay, to prevent the continuance of tuch an abuse, Louis Napoleon replies to thia yote by publishing on the following day a letter in the official journals cf the government, not only setting the reso- lution of the Arsembly at deflanec. but declaring that since the Roman people have not chosen to receive the French expedition as friends, they will be forced to re- ccive them as enemies; that the military honor of the ration isengaged; that he will not nilow it to be at- tached; and that the army may depend upon re- eeiy reinforecments. ‘The def.nce made by the supporters of the government is the old one—that the present Arrembiy was elected under different ¢ cumtanccs; that it does not represent the trae feelings of the eountry; and that its only object {s to cmbariass the ministry on the eve of the cicctions, To a certain extent this may be trae,— No doubt M, Jules Davre and his friends have personal ctjects to gain, and their attacks are therefore to be locked on With tuspicion, But if the attacks they make are well founded—if they expose the weakness, inconittency, and duplicity of the government, the aceu «as well entitied to attention as if the accusers were the the most upright and high-minded pereons in Kran: eral de Lamorieiere and M Jules Favre have ehown, beyond « doubt, that M.

This letter led to the following violent | DEBATE IN THE ASSEMBLY THE 9H INST. Some local bills were n d without discussion. The Pxesiveni— The tribune is to M.

It had requested | the committee to say, whether the French troops were | to withdraw to Civita Vecchia? Were they to evacuate | Italy? But not one member of the committee was found prepared to say what ought to be the course to follow. The committee had unanimously declared, thut they did not by any meansintend to bind dowa | the government to any fixed line of conduct; that they desired to allow it every fair liberty of action, in fact, the discussion of Monday night had been at the same time too early and too late—too early, because the full particulars of the case had not been received; and too late. becuuse the troops had become too fully engaged to admit of an honorable withdrawal Even now facts are wantirg; but beyond any doubt the government would soon be in porsession of the details. asa tele. graphic despatch had been received at Toulon. stating that letters had arrived there from the general-in- chief and that their contents would be forwarded with- out delay, The Government had reason to believe, however, that of the three trivmvtre at Rome, two had declared in favor of admitting the French troops (movement.) He, however, did not take on himself to affirm that asa fuet, rine it was only communicated in a private let- ter, In the abrence of authenticated facts, he consid- ered that it would be wisest to adjourn the discussions, Looking now at the questions of M.

How many instances could there | not be brought forward of other uations, when in criti- cal positions, flinging away private causes of dissent | avd concentrating all their forces to meet the hour of difficulty! He thought such was the course which would. at pres be most worthy of adoption in that Assem- bly (hear. hear) Asto the supposition which some perrons bad breught forward, that the President had | intended to adopt an independent line of conduct, he could declare that never kad that functionary con- ceived the idea ef acting contrary to the intentions of the Assembly (hear, hear.) ‘he course to be pursued at the present conjuncture had been deliberated in due course in council. and it was only after such prelimi- subject. motivé:—“Considering that article tion declares that no act of the President of the repab- lie is valid without the signature of a minister, the Na- tional Assembly hereby affirms the letter latel ten by him, to be null, and of no effect.” (Loud laugh- ter) tay It was. he repeated, a | | waiting to enemy has made a retrograde movement.

Bui such conduet would hereafter cover the govern- ment with shame. [Laughter on the right.) Was this the mode of carrying out the republican ideas of liberty? No; for the present government looked on wrty in a different point ot view—with them, it was liberty to see the Austrians agein at Milan; it was liberty toree the Roman republic laid low.’ (Loud cheers on the left.] But, at all events, the Assembly of France weuld not sanction the present design to put down the Rowan republic. The resolution adopted on Monday night bad placed an impassable barrier beforo fuch an intention, When the government had applied for a credit to defray the expenses of sending an expe- dition to Italy, it had formally declared that it had no desire whatever to put down the government of Rome, if regular one—it desired only to discountenance the acts of a band of adventurers. ‘It was affirmed that the dingly in tbized with (Lond laughter.} , What is the harm of Roman republic was at its last gasp. But now, what was the case? In place of the band of adventarers al- luded to, a regular government existed—the Roman re- ublic was not cnly alive, but prepared to cheek the interference of France! The honorable gentleman then went on to maintain that the letter of the Presi- Cent of the republic must be considered official, and that it was of a nature to bind the government to a de- terminate line ef conduct, In conclusion, he insisted that euch wn act was against the institutions of the re- public. and onght to be subject to reprehension, [Great ayplaure on the left.] Phe Presivesr of the Counell expressed his regret that the debate had not been continued in the grave and uncbjectionable manner whieh had distiaguiwhed it before the Inst speaker bad ascended the tribune.
