? THE NEW YORK HERALD. NO. 5879. ‘STATE OF EUROPE. Our French Correspondence. Pants, June 27th, 1850. “The vote on the Three Millivns—General Changar- nier’s Speech—Revision of the Constitution— The Cabinet—Thier’s Visit to Louis Philippe— Socialist’s—-Arrests— Piedmont-—Tuscany—Tie Papal States—Germuny—The Holy Alliance— Poland—Tie Amerwan Minister in Sprin—-King Otho--Constantincple— Kossuth’s Children -Prin- cess Belgioso §c. §c. Jn spite of all the foreseen obstacles against the law of the three millions, the President of our republic has obtained the object of his wishes. ‘The “ law of the Dotation,” as it was called by the Parisian prese, was voted on Monday last, by 354 against 308. I was present in the tribunal of the stenographers’ and I assure you that the sight of the salle of the National Assembly offered a very curious’ coup dail. The heat was intense, yet not abeach was empty. Not one of the tribunes, in which the public usually are admitted, was ca pable of containing another soul. The debates only began at about three o’clock, and were finish- ed by half pastfive. I give you the summary of the affair. Before proceeding to the vote, the As- sembly ,had to examine the three different motion: ich we em— t | which were presented to them—Ist, the amendmen! | the whole body of troops now in activity in proposed by the majority of the commission—2ad: the amendment of Mr. Dampierre--3d, the amend- ment of Mr. Lefebvre Daruflé. After a long cop. gest, the amendment of Mr. Duruflé was examined | ‘first ; and at that time, every person in the hall ‘was persuaded that the party was lost for ever— whem suddenly General Changi ascended the tribune, and made a speech, whi was stamped with ity of sentiment and simplicity of diction, ma! jogether an appeal to the majority and a a elaim for the authority of his long services for the country. This sudden intervention, uttered in the concise and animated languuge of the governor of Paris, luced an electric etfvet upon the mem- | pers of the Assembly. ‘I'he chance had turned— as if by a miracle; the mijority were conquered ; and the illustrious general had won another castle, ‘worthy to be added to the list of those won by him in A as well asin his own country. Thisis a Foy conciliation aod order, cemeuted by the Joyal of General Caaagarnier. ‘The actual organization of our goveramentis con- ‘stituted by three powers, viz:—the President, the majority ef the Assembly, and the military power. But, in my opinion, as well as in that of many others, who are closely fotlowiog the politics of France, the military power is, now-a-days, the pe ro and most important. This is very elear, and must be acknowledged, when you consider how sudden has been the railying of the majority to the speech of Gen. Chingarnier. I have often Ioantioned, in my correspondence, the quarrels whieh have taken place between Louis Napoleon and the Governor of Paris. All of them took place, and were considered as a proof of jealousy, enthe side of the President. Oa Suturday last, sti another contest of that sort had takea place at the Elysée, and the rumor was that Geo. Chan- rier was about retirivg, to be replaced, either General Baraguay, d°!I lliers, or by Me. Mag- nan, but the present position of affairs has changed the question, and Genero! Chongarnier has proved to Louis Napoleon that he would be wrong to se- parate from him. Sach # magaanimity is worth mentioning, and was highly prai Il those in consider ¢ are ick ; and no one can deay ~ a sam of money for | the President, he was gaining for himself the first rank in France. The immediate resuit of this vote is certainly the revision of the present constitauon. No doubt | the National Assembly will soon witness the pre- | sentation of a project of a law oa this subject. The eneral councils of the depurtments will be ia | fs and their demand wilt have immense in the House, It i= suit, ia some quariers, Thae the National Assembly will shortly be pro- ed, for the members need very much to re- turn to their departments, to work upon the prin- ciples which are progressing in the provinces.

Ne- vertheless, Sicily is the ‘sword of Damocles” over his head, and it is tied but by a thread. If you wish to follow me to the very heart of Germany, you will see that the polineal state of that country is subjected to innumerable changes. | The direct negotiations of Prussia and Austria, in | order to arrange aflairs upona basis f cordial understanding between these two powers, sre al- ready interrupted, and “ cool feelings’ have taken the place of the association which was on the eve of being established between the cabinets of Vienna and Austra. The Coagress of Frank- fort has no power; and though it has been ru- mored that, in presence of such ineapucity, Austria wished to call an European Congress, this is entirely without foundation. The reconstitution of the * holy alliance” issaid to be on thg tapis; and though the newspapers have denied the hews that Emperor Nicholas hai not departed for London, to meet the Prince of Peus- sia, who is now there, I am induced to believe that the Czar will, very likely, proceed also to the capi- tal of England. And if this great affair is not broached there, me the question of the Duchies and Denmark, which has been, and still is, the cause of £0 many negotiations between Eng- land, France, ‘ia, and Austria, will be decided during thatjourney. According to the last news received from Denmark peace, has been concluded, aud everything leads to believe that it will be du- rable. Emperor Nicholas has been lately organising his army upon an immense scale; and, itis said, that ussia amount to a million of soldiers. (Quite a signitivant number of men in sueh an epoch of transition. Ju Hanover, a new contest has arisen between its vernn.eat andthe union represented by the Col- lege of Princes. It is said thataa alliance has been d by Hanover with Oldenburgh and the Hanse- Ss, inorder to form a kingdom of Northern Ty important fact, which is reported on Cote ority, is the reconstitution of an inde- pendent kingdom in Polend. The prince who would be placed by Ruseia upon that throne would be the Czarwitch, who is the heir of Emperor Ni- cholas. It is seid that all the cabinets of Germany fe sone in this politieal and diplematie recon- stitulion. The news received from Denmark leads us to believe that peace will soon be restored in that country. Nevertheless, the king is organizing his army, which amounts to 50,000 men—a very large body of troops for such a small country, Nothing important bas reached Paris frem Spain, except the report of a serious contest between the minister of the United States, Mr. Barringer, and General Narvaez, relative to the affairs of Cuba. Every body believes here that the intention of your government is to find an honest way to take pos- session of Cuba. men. The famed Count Campello, lite minister of a trouble he had last year, at the Salle Ven- tador. The talk of the moment, is the great Masquerade Ball, which will take place, by special permission, on Saturday night, at the Jardin D'Hiver. This splendid festival, which was to be given on Situr- day last, was postponed; and, during this week, the splendid garden has been adorned in such a megnificent way that you eannot imagine how tasteful and fairy will be the coup d’ei of that place, when it will be lighted by thousands and thousands of candies and a iillion of gas burners. The President, Louis Napoleon, will be present, I understand, under the brilliaat costume of a French admiral, and accompanied by his nids-de- camp and courtiers. 1 will give you all the parti- culars in my next letter. A propos of Louis Napoleon: He was afflicted, last week, with the most paiatul grief. Mrs. H—-, it appears, forgetting herself and her highly placed paramour, left Paris, en contrebande, with a jockey attached to her hotel, and went in his company to Gretna Green. Is it not right to exclaim with Lord Byren, ‘* Women! women!” ete. % T have sent to you many names of our Parisian Lorettes, who have departed from our socialist shores to invade California aad bewitch its inhab- itants. Well, if Paris makes an international ex- change with America, the United States are also sending to us several ladies seeking fortune in our fashionuble land. Among the most conspicuous lately arrived in our city, I will name a Mrs. Jack- son, from New York, Whois here making a “ great fuss,” and whose intentions sre to pluck as many olden feathers as possible from the pretty young birds of Paris. That aventurieré has taken toems at the Hotel Duphot, in the street of the same name, and she daily drives in a carriage to which are harnessed two splendid bay colored mares. Mrs. Jackson is going to Baden Baden and Ham- burg, and she hopes that the faro table and the “human” roulette wiil be favorable to her foreign charms. Another chevaliere d’industrie of New York, a Mrs. March, (this named from a liasow she had in your city with a jewne beaw who frequents Broad- way, Saratoga and Newport,) is also here, taking the title of the Princess Murch. Her bareuche is adorned with a coat of arms, and her luxury is un- equalled in the society which she frequents. Hum- bug ! it is true—but here, as well as every where, humbug goes ahead. * Since Fam on this subject, 1 cannot refrain from telling you an anecdote in which au American gentleman was concerned, and the déaoument of which took place the other day before the tribunal of Police Correctionelle. There is in Paris a cer- tain Mademoiselle Nugeac, who, under the govern- ment of M. Guizot, was attached to the Police Secrét. Her parlors arg frequented by the élite of all the foreigners, and thas she is often able to render many services to the Prefecture of Police. This lady, it appeurs, was met during the first days of this month by an American citizen of New York, visit her, under the false name of John Smith, and King Otho has retarned to Athens from the ex- cursion he made from that city to the islands. He has been received with the greatest enthusiasm all over his dominions. The last Jowrnauz of Constantinople confirm the nomination of Prince Kallimakito the governorship Samos. His excellency will be replaced bere. not by M. Mussurus, but 4 Sami-Bashaw, a frien: of Redschied Bashaw, who is now governor of Larissa. The children of Kossuth arrived on the 5th inst. at Constantinople, and were escorted by a uard of honor to the place of residence of their jather, Who is, as you know, under the protection of Turkey. Princess Belgioso has been granted by the es Sultan a large concession of land, in which she is about ising a sort of Champ d’ Aise for her- self and all the Italian refugees. m~* will remem- ber that all the property of Mdme. Belgioso was siezed by the Austrian governess ores the Ita- lian , and now, by the generosity of the Sultan towards the political refugees, she will be restored to a brilliant position. M. Comte, ex-postmaster general during the reign of Louis Philippe, a gentleman whose capaci- ties in all branches were well appreciated by the old king, died at Strasbourg, last week, in the 0th year of his life. | Adieu.

Asone of your home readers, who has beea ma- king a rapid flight through New Wogland, I have brought up for a little rest at this place, one of the most delightful villages to be found ; perhaps it should be called acity, for it has a mayor and common council, aad a population of seme seven- teen thousead. The shade tree: are iarge and nu- merous, and elf around there isa aeatness which is pleasant to look at, and the Worcester Louse is very comfertable quarters for a stranger to find hims€lf in. Railroads row from here io every di- rection, and in fact, they do all over New England. A person who bas been gone ten years shuld re- torn now; he would find instead of the slow and dvaty coach, or the old stage roads, an engine and a train of ears flying along where he supposed it was utterly impossible for them ever to fiad their way, but capital and science have accomplished wonders, ‘Those who wish to leave the city for a few day# of pleasure cannot take a more pleasant and de- lightfut trip than to take the cazs, ¢ither here or at Boston via’ Fitchburg, Rutland, end Burlington, and if them shinee, to Montreal and'Quebec, They will find Burlington quite a pretty place to stop ai, being onthe lke shore. The Borlington people are unusualy*shrewd and intelligent} they having built two raitroads through both sectinny of the Siate, in connection with other roady to Boston, shows what they can do when it is necessary. In going fiom Boston to Burlington, if travellers take the Rutiand route, they have an opportunity of stopping at Beliows Falls, an hour fer dinner; this route being much the shortest, they will, of course, arrive in Burlington as soon as the other, end five times out‘of six an half hour earlier, but if they are humbugged on to the northern route, as 1 war, they will have to ride through abeat two hundred and forty miles without eating, unless they go provided forthemsetves, to say on of riding two miles in a coach, all the way up hill, te et into Burlington, for the read is not yet doae into town. If passengers did not wish to return home by the lake, they would be likely to return by the other road, for the sate of seeing both. The scenery of the two reads iseqwally grand and ro- mantic to look at, passing through a rich farming: country. They will, however, on the northern road, im coming down, have the pleasure of decking two miles into Monepelier, for the sake ef seeing the edge of the town. Passen- gers payng ! down from Verment, who wish to go on to New York the same right, need not eslculate for a certainty of conneeting with the Worcester train at howrg, for the writer of this, with several others, arrived: jnst ter minutes too late, and of course had to stay over night ia Fiteh- burg. They can, if they choose, keep on to Bos- ton the eame night. While at Burlington, a fiend took me up and showed me a steam shovel» at work, diggin; through a sand bank, to make way for the railroad to pages. It was quite a novel cariosity. It was formed in shape hke a shoves, with a box on the handle end. It would force iteelf. up into the bank, and then swing round over a dirt cart, at the same time the bottom of the box wontd’ drop out, leuing the dirt fall into the cart, which is left standing on a temporary track, and atterwards drawn off by the in 8 shovel tukes up a ton weight atevery doubtedly, will be elected, byta very considerablé by KS ou may rest assured that Benton will be de- feated, and that whigs will be elected to fill the places of Bowlin and Felps; the other districw will elect democrats.

As there appears to be some interest felt in the political aflairs of Missouri, | propose giving you a few facts, upon which I think you may safely rely. In the first place, I feel satisfied that of the demo- crats that will be elected to the Legislature in Au uot, the majority will be opposed to Benton ; how- ever, the Colonel hos his friends, who will vote for him under any aad all cireumstances ; though they will not be in number sufficient to elect him, they will, however, be able to defeat any anti-Benton democrat. The result of the division will be the election of a wig to fill the place of Benton. This you may set down as certain, There will be some dispute among the whigs as to who they will seteet as the successor to Benton. Some are determined to ran Col Doohan, others Mr. Geyer, of St. Louis, Mr. Botte hus been spo- ken of, but he is wo piveh tiectured with free soiliem to hope for enewess. J am sure, if the whigs were to consult the interest of the State, Mr Geyer would be Senator; he is «4 mua ol fine acquirements, and emmently qualitied for the i Col Doniphan isa maa of tine mind, never lebored, es Mr Gey@y has, to div tinguish birmself in bis profession, of the acquisi- tion of political information; bis services during the wer with Mexico, however, will give him morech strength in the northern port of the State.
