New York, Monday, May 28, 1849, The Late Important Foreign News—Con- vulsed and Agitated State of Continental Europe—Approach of a General War. We give to-day most copious details of the highly important news received by the Caledonia. Our double sheet enables us to lay before our readers, at once, these full details, together with our correa- pondence, which is unusually interesting and va- luable. No better proof ef the excellence and supe- riority of our arrangements could be afferded, than that which is presented in this instance. In locking over the details of this news, the eye is naturally attracted, to the state of affairs in con- tinental Europe, which has now assumed an as- pect of the most serious and solemn interest and importance. A death struggle is evidently ap- proaching; nay, it has already begun between the amighty popular masses of the German States and the governments to which they now refuse alle- giance. Russia, steadfast in her long settled pur- poses, has her foot upon the Danube, and is fully prepared for a tremendous eflort. Austria, teeble and disorganized, is bending beneath the weight of aforeign and domestic war. France has taken a decisive step towards ascendency in Italy. Great Britam beholds all this with scarcely concealed alarm, and cannot long remain an inactive specta- tor. Meanwhile, human blood has been poured out like water on various fields; and Central Ea- rope assumes the character of a great camp, the tramp of war resounding far and near, as it sum- amons the oppressed people on one hand, and the hued soldiers of existing governments on the other, to the dread conflict of the sword. Everywhere throughout Europe, the elements of rdisorder, revolution and change are at work. The French republic is threatened by serious dangers. It will be seen that the movement of the French on Italy has already excited the most vehement con- flicts of opinion, and the letter of the President to General Oudinot has produced a most exasperated state of feeling on the part of the opposition, It is impossible to predict, with any degree of cer- tainty, the result of this extraerdinary policy en the purtof the French executive. These are truly times in which the most experienced judgment and the mightiest intellectual ability ere needed in those who control the destinies of the young re- public of France. Unquestionably, the letter of ‘Louis Napoleon to Oudinot was extremely foolish. It exhibits a disregard of constitutional forms, and an oflensive arrogance, which could not fail to ex cite at once alarm and indignation. We givea full sketch of the proceedings and debates in the Assembly, which followed the denouement of the movement on Italy, unpopular, anti-republican, and anti-French as the movement is; and from it our readers will be enabled to form an accurate opinion of the extreme degree of excitement which pre- wailed. The administration was in a minority upon a question affecting the organization of the National Guards. Of course all this would exer- cive a most important influence upon the elections. There must have been an overwhelming majority returned against the administration, and probubly ere this time the ministry have been obliged to resign. We cannot easily exaggerate, in such circumstances, the importance of the next news from France. That England can, amid all the convulsions which agitate Europe, maintain her policy of neu- trality, 1s not tobe supposed. He has not studied the signe of the times with much discrenon, who imagines that the grand revolutionary age is soon to terminate. Itis but beginning; and already all the old nottrums of political quack doctors have been proved to be utterly worthless in arresting the progress of the new order of things. England haw been slowly yielding to the progressive spirit of the age, ut tnanitested umong her own peoples but the hour is et hand when she, too, must sether house in order, end prepare for a complete re-or- ganization of her whole eocial and political fabric. The leading Britich journalists are calling on the government tu take decisive measures for the pre- vention of “German anarchy, Russian aggran- dizement, and Preach ascendancy in Italy.” It is diflicult to conjecture what the next few months may bring forth. We should not be surprised, however, to see Great Lritain involved in that storm which now sweeps the continent. As we sland ufar ofl, contemplating this stirring scene of confusion and tumult, and starting colli- sion of the moral and physical elements, we cannot avoid contrasting it wih the spectaele which our own free und happy country exhibits. Peace and proeperity reign throughout all ourborders, The earth pours forth her abundance, and industry, in all its departments, reaps its full reward. We have, indeed, been recently visited by #ome cala- mities. Fire and the pestilence have devastated certain portions of the land; but we are of one heart and one mind, and rejoice in an equal and just system of law and goverument. Let us see toit, that we rightly prize these blessings, and avoiding all sources and causes of discord, perpe- tuate that glorious system of freedom for whieh our oppressed brethren in other lands are now culled upon to struggle, evea unto the death! Tux Cuoura.—Thus far this city has be meicilully preserved from the scourge of cholera. Itas doubted by intelligent physicians whether a single case, ‘ sporadic,” or of any other form, has appeased in this region.

Our advices from Paris are of yesterday afternoon. In the Arsembly yesterday, the Minister of War con- tradicted, as upon authority, the statement of Ledru Rollin, as to the loss the French expedition to Ro: had sustained. Private letters, however, some of which huve been published in the National, re-affirm tho *tatement of the extreme soverity of the loss, whieh, however. the government wish to conceal. The mails between Paris and Londen are definitely settled, tobe carried via Bologne, The Calais Rail- way Company will run a train on thoir line, in opposl- tion to the mail train, via Bologne. lnteresting from Rome, Advices from Rome, of the 2d instant, have been received at Paris, The city still remained unsubdued.

Movement of the Neapolitan Forces. Ve lcarn that the Neapolitan torces were at Albano on tho 2d insta: The Outbreak at Breslau, Some particulars bave reached us of the out- break at Breslau, Although the mili ary had, on the “Sth, succveded in suppressing tho disorders, yet it still required their constant vigilance to preventa renewal of them, The city was declared in » state of slege, and military rule entirely provailed. Barricades of » very formidable character had been erected, and the con- flict had been very serious, they being well manned; and in their defence the loss of life was very groat. Trouble at Cologne, An insurrection st Cologne was almost hourly ex- pected, and the city was greatly agitated. The autho- tities had declared that the first commenoument of a disturbance would be the signal for declaring the city in a state of siege. Outbreak at Elberfelat. At Elberfeldt, well known for ite cotton manu- factories, @ serious outbreak had taken place; the armed militia had come seriously in contact with the king’s troops. It was reported on the 8th inst., that six persons had been killed, and ® large number wounded, Disturbance at Dusseldorf. At Dusseldorf, also, disturbances had occurred, but not of a very serious nature, The Excited State of the Rhine Provinces. ‘The whole of the Rhine provinces are in a most ex- cited state, und ready to explode like # train of gun- powder—throughout the whole, the armed militia are disaffected towards the King of Prussia, and in favor of the Franktort Assemoly. Revolt at Hanover—Flight of the Kin; We have just received intelligence from Hanover, which states that @ revolt had taken place in that city—the civic guard of which had sided with the students of the Polytechnic School, upon whiok a collition took place between them and the few troops that were in the city, who were overpowered. Sub- sequently the king had fled. It is said that an offer of the assistance of 5,000 Prussian troops bad been made to the king previous to and in anticipation of this out- break, but had been declined by him. Affairs at Leipsic. We learn from Leipsic that very severe pecuniary loss will be sustained by the traders frequenting the tair, which was completely closed, and the goods ahd booths removed, under inspection of the military, om the 7th inttant. On the evening of that day the city remained quiet. The. Insurrection at Dreadon, ‘The insurrection at Dresden had, on the 8th, been quite overcome by the military, und the city was quiet.

Our latest accounts from this part of the European Continent inform us that the Hungarians were form- ing an immense army, say 100,000 men, and unless Russia brings # very large force to the aid of Austria, there is not much chance for tho latter; and that ere she can regain her lost position, she must calculate upon a large expenditure of men, money, and tim ‘The latest advices state that the Hungarians had had a decided advantage, and captured Lierio.

The Times’ city article, of to-day, says that some speculative sales, together with the original feeling of depression, which bas now for so many days past been unrelieved by the slightest rumor of a re-assuring kind, caused Consols. yesterday, to recede from 914 to 9034, at which they left off, with buyers. This morning, the intelligence from the Continent being still unsatisfac- tory, the Consol market opens very flatly, and lower prices thun the closing rates of yesterday will be ac- cepted. The foreign exchanges are very quiet, and little businers is doing therein, with the exception of Amsterdam, which is rather higher. Mancina Lane, Loxpox, May 12—11 A. M. Tho produce markets are quiet, Salus are but limited, without change in price. Very Late From CaLirornia—ARRIVAL OF THR Cauirornia and Oregon at Pattama.—It was stated in yesterday’s Herald, that Messrs. How- lund & Aspinwall had received two telegraphic despatches from New Orleans, announcing the arrival at Panama of these steamers from San Francisco. There was no intelligence of the steamer Panama, although it is not at all unlikely that she was one of the two arnved. The news brought by either the California or Oregon is pro- bably two weeks later than the advices published in the Herald on Saturday morning, which were to the 9th instant. When this paragraph was writ- ten, no later intelligence had reached us from the South. We regret thisexceedingly. We made aa efiort to obtain later despatches from New Or- leans. Ifany news is received before our paper is gent to press, it will be published under the tele- graphic head. Meanwhile, we give the details of the last news in another column of this day’s He- rald.

Tue Geaman Steamer Unite Srates.—This splen- did vessel, which has been purchased and fitted by the accredited agent of the German confederacy, will leave this port, to-morrow, under command of Captain N. C. Palmer. Her destination, we believe, is Southamp- ton. at which place her transfer to the German service will be consummated. The alterations made upon the vessel and rigging, and the addition of some eight or ten Paixhan guns, have improved her appearance very much. She is un- doubtedly the hundsomest, if not tho finest, steam fri- gate that has ever left this port. She takes out, as passengers, somo three or four ex- paseed midehipmen, two or three of whom were dis- missed from the United States service for duelling, and who are in expectation of receiving commissions in the German service They are said to be excellent young officer Captain Palmer resigns command on his arrival in England. The Steamenir Nortnerner ano THE Panama Mains. —Tho paragraph copied from another paper, relative to the sale, at Panama, of the letter-bags by the North- erner, on ber last trip to Chagres, imputes to Captain Budd a dereliction of the duties belonging to his sta- tion, as the matter now stands. and the inference drawn from the paragraph reflects somewhat on the Captain. ‘The rimple facts in the case, briefly stated, we think will entirely exonerate Capt. Budd from all participa. tion in the matte The Northerner being advertised for the nearest rafe anchorage off the port of Chagrea, received letters and newspapers on the day of sailing, as ix usual with all vessels, free of charge, and, on her | arcival near the harbor, they were sent on shore to the fice ut Chagres, where they remained until Capt, ucker, of the Orus, deeming it a duty to forward them to tanama, gave them in charge of a muleteer, | telling bim that be would be paid at that place for his services, On their arrival at Panama, no one could be found to remunerate the pative, when he off them the highest bidder, Tho disposal of the letters we already alluded to; but as the owners of the Northerner neither advertised nor asked for letters, or are at all identified with the mail on that route, it can- not be expeeted that they should pay the expense of nn express from Chagres to Panama, The American Consul at Panama ought to take charge of the letters, Sporting Intetligence.

They can live in the water, as far as their lower parts are concerned, but they don’t like wet overhead ‘There is every sort of nonsense talked in some of the papers. about the delay in getting up the wreck. if the owners would have given $6,500 to raise her, if it could be done like magic. No oxertion is spared bi them or the contractors, for it is the interest of bot! to have her raised a3 oon as possible. Ifthe contractors do not lift ber within a certain time, and as uninjured as when they found her, they get nothing, aud their labor and expense are in vain. Every hour she lies where she is. there is risk of serious damage to her. Mr. Boardman’s skill in raising wreeks is well known, He isa man of great mechanical genius He has in- vonted, as you are aware, the celebrated steam pump, tor which he has a patent. and makes » considerabie annual sum for his permission to use it. The boiler now lies on the deck of a schooner alongside, if it should be nec: ssary te use it, which will depend on t) authority of the coroner, Mr Churebill, to detain the wreck, If. on consulting his legal advisers, he finds he c#n prevent its removal till he is ratisiied it contains no more bodies, he will probably enforce bis right. it is to be presumed the owners would naturally wi have the inquests finished here instead of commencing a third one in New York; but then they fool uneasy every moment. and will so feel tall they see their boat in the Dry Dock. The contractors are equally anxious to expedite their undertaking. and they say that what- ever bodies may yet remain below will be found more speedily by bringing the boat to New York, where the water can be let out of her at onee, than by searching for them here, or aes for the more slow operation of the steam pump. Besides, the great difficulty is to get her so far above the water as that the steam pump can be made available; for as long as the water can get in over her main deck the pump can do nothing, and it is said {t would strain her too mugh, with the imm«nse weight of water she contains, to raise her entire hull above that level. Unless, therefore, the coroner fintcrferes, vs et armis. she will be towed to New York assvon as sho is sufficiently buoyed up, fore and aft, for that purpose. It is calculated that the oxpense of raising her, the neoeseary repairs, the lovs of freight, and injury done to what is saved, will not be covered by less than $50.00. She cost originally, when she was built, in 1843. $120,000, She is cviled—i. ¢, her hull is lined with 19.600 feet of thick pine, and caulked, (whereas ost other boats are merely braced) and this stands to her owners now in keeping ber together. It wax the bucyancy, too, thus created, together with the huge wovden frames in which her engines are bedded in the lower cabin, and her horisontal oylinders, empty of overything but air, that prevented her from sinking out of sight, and raved so many lives, It is now olear this boat can never entirely sink, as long as she holds together. Had her engines been on deck, where most of our steamers have their engines, she would have pro- bably gone to the bottom at once, notwithstanding the buoyancy from all other causes. Mr. ‘Lucker, agent for the Empire, and brother of Captain Tucker, went last night to Troy with the peor emigrants, who have been staying at Newburg, waiting to see abvut the bodies of their frivnds. 1 have learned that the company have agreed to pay them for their losses, and to xend them on, A subscription has been set on foot here by the jury and others, for those ren- dered destitute by this melancholy accident. It will amount to about $100. and isto be distributed by Mr. Jamos Kunken, as he sees it is most nueded, Captain Robinson. of the Nosh Brown, was here this morning, and has just gone to Troy for some witnesses, chiefly with a view, | understand, to sustain his cha- racter, as Mr. Smith's bas been se well supported by some of the witnesses, Indeed, it does not appear that the characters of either of these men are impeached; for it is not alleged that there was a guilty intention on either ride With regard to Mr Smith, it is evident that if he bad any malicious intention, he could have run right through the schooner, without the stightest injury to his own boat, and some pilots would have pithaps followed that course; instead of that, he sheered off. and thus exposed tho side of tho steamboat to the bowaprit of the sohoonor, rather than destroy the latter. It would stom, therefre, that. in some un- per day. Every man you meet has his bag of gold in is pocket. and every store has its scales for weighing it. When it is taken in trade it 3 for $16 per ounce; in exchange for coin, from $14 to $15, Tt has been bought for $8. I have seen pieces weigh from one eighth of an ounce to fifteen pounds of pure gold. here are now four U. 8 vess here under com- mand of Commodore Jones, and about thirty other ventels, mostly American, Sailor's wages are $100 per month; pork, $36 per bbl.; flour. $20; saloratus, $1 per 1b.; tobucco, $5 per pound; land in this town is selli for more than $20 per foot; lumber, $600 per Mand little to be had at that; common laborers $6 to $10 per day; board from $12 to $30 per weok; and hun- dreds of persons in tents camped out in every diree- tion. All hands except tho captain and first offlcer have left the steamer. and it is impossible to tell when. she will leave here, She eannot go at present, as she bas ne coal. If | had a small steamboat here | could make $20 000 per month. I would not allew my wife and children to come to this country on any account whatever. If it was not for the gold no one could live here.

A letter of the 6th, from the same gentleman, says:— ‘Thoeo who read the accounts in the United States of the large quantities of gold in this region, think it an easy matter to come out here and get it; but there are a great many trials and privations that’a person must undergo before he can reach the golden treasures, even aiter your arrival at thie place.

As an instance of how easily this money may have been lost. | may mention a fact. A lady (I think her name is Mrs, ‘Luthill) was on the saloon deck aft, and had her purse full of gold in her hand.

He adds that if any bodies are found in the wreck. when it arrives at New York. an inquest must be held by the Coroner there, the jurisdiction of the Fishkill Coroner ceasing as soon as such bodies sro removed from his county.

I visited the wreck this evening, aud remained on it for two hours, looking at the operutions of the wreck- ere, The process is necessarily a slow one, but every hour the noble boat is rising. “Mr. Boardman is per- fectly confident of his ability to accomplish what he har undertaken. He has euch faith in his hogsheads, that he rays he could raise her keel out of the water with them, ‘There are now nine chains extended under her bottom, and three more aro to be added. Those: chuing are connected with two pair of beams—a pair on each sido of the bout, running parallel with it. Be- tween there numerous hog-heads are well secured. and thus there is a fulcrum for the chain lever to rest upon. Two pair of huge screws arv fastened on these platforms ‘at euch end of the chain, which is drawn up through the frame to which the screws are attached. and as each link is gained by screwing home, it is cecured by in- rerting through It a piece of iron, which, extending across the hold. prevents it from going back, and thus, link after link, is drawn up. and in the «ame proportion the wreck is raised. ‘his must be continued for s day or ro towards her storn. before she will be sufficiently | lifted to get the casks pliced under thst part of her.
