This is the signal for an outcry of the royalist papers against Lord Palmerston. The maniferto does not meet with mach favor from the democratic papers. ‘The Algiers journals of the 5th instant contain reports from General St. Arnaud down to the 2d, at which date be had returned to Djijeli, after com- pletely reducing the three great tribes of Beni- Amran, Beni-foughral, and Beni-Ouarzeddin. Prince Metternich left Brussels on the 9th instant, with his wife and family, for Johannisberg. Before his departure, the prince was admitted to a private audience of the King of the Belgians. A duel was fought, week before last, at Munich between the Prince de Wrede and Baron de Ler- ebenfield. The baron was wounded, but is out of danger, though still confined to his bed. It is said that, on seeing him fall, the prince hastened to him, and offered his hand, but the baron rudely pushed, it aside, saying, “1 have nothing in common with you!” the baron, that in 1848 the prince had shown cow- ardice and hid himself in the Jewish synagogue. Accounts of the 12th inst. from Paris, state that petitions in favor of a revision continued to be pre- sented to the Assembly. In spite of the political agitation the funds are higher, fiver closing 30 cen- times better than on Wednesday the IIth. ‘The question of the revision has assumed so un. promising a shape, that the Duke de Broglie has intimated that, though he is willing to assume the office of President, he cannot undertake to draw up the report of the committee. not be selected for about three weeks. It is sap- posed that the choice will now fall upon M. de Toe- queville. Modifications of the military were spoken of ia Spain on the 7th inst. The Prussian post office had reduced tho postage on English newspapers to its former rate. ‘The military force in Ireland is now reduced to 18,000 men. The crops in Ireland never before looked so well. An abundant harvest is anticipated. The Dublin Nation announces that the next ge- neral meeting ofthe Tenant League will be held on the banks of the Boyne, on the site of the me- morable battle. Lord Melville died on Tuesday night, the 10th imst., at Melville Castle, near Lasswade, in the eounty of Edinburgh. The deceased viscount, al- though @ British peer, took little interest for two years in political affairs. In early and middle life, however, he occupied a somewhat prominent place im the political world, having been president of the Beard of Trade, in the administration of Mr. Per- ¢ival, from 1809 to 1812. A discovery has just been made at Hermiones, in | the Peloponnesus, of a certain spring of water which, when mixed with oil, becomes at once a kkind of soap.

Genoa— The House of Columbus— Catharine Hayes— Darie Materlini—Her Probable Visit to the United States—Sketch of her History—Things in Genoa, &e., &e. Ihave been for some time pleasantly domiciliated in this ancient city,hich MF our little schoolboys and girls at home are taught to venerate as the birthplace of the immortal Columbus. When, in roaming about, a day or two after my arrival here, my eyes rested upon the very house which was once the residence of that greit missionary of the Divine will, my heart swelled and glowed with gratitude that euch s man once lived to point out a road over the boson of the mighty deep, to the heausitel own beloved and happy America—happy under the control of that same watchful and ever kind Providence, which guided the Pinta to Hispaniola. The Genoese keep the house in good repair, although one could hardly distinguish it from many other houses in the same street, wero it not for a marble ablet which tells what it is. And what next shall [ write about to aesist in Gilling a short letter ! or why do I propound such a quetios, since I am in Italy, the land of dark-eyed prime donne, and impassioned song—where your fondness for music would direct you first to the opera house? Weill, I have been there often since I came to the city, and I find it to be ons of the largest and finest opera houses in Italy. The por- formers, it seems, are employed for stipulated ind the performances take place at stipulated imes, and are advertised the preceding day by enormous printed bills, as operas are advertised in the other chief towns of Italy Here in Genoa, I heard, for the first time, the celebrated Catharine Hayes. She has a pretty, sweet soprano voice, but I confess that my expecta- tions were fully realized. My taste may differ from that of many persons, and | may be deficient in judgment, seeing that | am not one of the learned graduates of the ttant:, but my travelling com- panions concur wit’ me; and they have all been visiters of the Italian opera at home and abroad, for some years. ‘The performers recently heard a Turin, among whom ie Mari: Maberlini. have made a great sen- sation. Inher company Ihave had tho pleasure of passing eral hours at different times, after having listened to her spirit moving songs. My companions and myself thought ber performan wuperior to anything we had ever heard in the of vocal music, in sweetness, fallaces of tone, and execution. I sought an introduction to her, and readily obtained it, through one of the titled gentry to whom I had an introductory letter from Paris. From her own tongue, and genera! report, I learn- ed that she had been the pupil, and the only one, of the great «omposer, Rossini. It i aeserted that she has not her superior in arope ; and hor moral ebaracter is pure and untarnished. You are, dowbt- Jers, aware that Kossini i* advanced in yonrs; that he lives in retirement ; has refused for a long time to compose, and is immensely rich, while almost every human honor has been conferred upon him; ‘and you can, therefore, imagine the exalted estima he ploced on Maberlini’s abilities, when he volu tarily took her for his pupil. I am told that has often been urged to visit the United St and my impression ia, that she hae very nearly con- cluded to do #0.

K. 'The Dinner to the Most Rev. Dr. Hughes, the Catholte Archi of New York. On Tuesday evening, the 10th inst., as before mentioned in the New York Herald, a splendid ban- uet was given at the Adelphi Llotel, to his Grave the Archbishop of New York, who has been making a tour through this country and the continent of Europe, and who was to re-embark for America on the following morning. The dinner was served up with all the profusion and elegance for which Mr. Radley is so distinguished. A’ 120 gentleman sat down. * * * * * * * Mr. Asrivwatu concluded by proposing the health of his Grace the Archbishop of New York. | The toast was drunk with all the honors, amid the most rapturous applause. isGrace the ARcuursuor, on rising, was re- ceived with renewed applause. He said:—Mr. The cause of the duel was an assertion of | The reporter will | Chairman and Gentlemen—I feel too much op- essed with the honor which you have done me, to e able to find utterance to the sentiments to which my heart is moved on this occasion.

Laaptioue) Since then, as the Chairman has well remarked, it has been my duty | to preach, or, at least, attempt to preach, in dif | ferent places; and it is quite true that I might have | { | travelled through all the countries of the globe, from the rising to the setting of the sun, and wherever the language which it is mine to speak is under- stood, {should have found those who would have needed no introduction from the moment that I first had spoken to them the truths of the one holy Ca- tholic faith. (Loud applause.) That faith is not British. (Hear, hear, and aeplnee.) It is not provincial. It is not whig. Itis not tory. Itis | not democratic. Butit is Catholic, divine, made for | mankind, and not for provinces or nations alone. | (Lond applause.) _It is like the light of heaven, in | itself colorless; and notwithstanding this identity— notwithstanding that it is like the atmosphere, which is the medium of light, untainted in itself, it | ntifies itself, reproduces itselfin the | beart—(bear)—without disturbing national charac- | ter, without oversetting individual temperament. (Applause.) For every one—every preacher is somewhat distinct and different in his manner from another; and it seems as if the one faith would take the color of the speaker, the medium through which it is passed to the audience—but then you behold a | phenomeron in that beautiful art which we are seeking so much to revive. It is analagous to an old window of stained or We see every little piece gives color to that light which is colorless out- | side; and although it is beautiful to gaze upon for its variety and combination, yet, afver all, the audience inside find it so blended that’ the colors display the living—leaving the unity of the faith, notwith- standing the preacher by whom it is com- municated to them—as it is, and as it came from God. (Loud applause.) It is unnecessary, and perhaps it would not be beco in me, to _ follow out any contrast in regard to this; but one thing | know, with regard to those who are separa- ted from the unity of the Catholic faith, and it is— that in order to ascertain differences, we need not travel at all.

Gentle- men, your chairman bas spoken ot me with so much | eulogy that you will have to excuse meif I say some few words with regard to myself. (Applause.) He has alluded to ciicumstances connected with my European and Irish origin. He has made use of those circumstances for a purpose which it is well befitting for an Englishman to do; fer, to tell the truth, old axiom which has had credit amongst Europeans, holds goodge-ttrat in unity there is strength. | conceive that every man who loves the strength ofthe British Empire must deplore the tacle which its guardians now exhibit, when they are spending day after day legislating for two- thirds against the other one-third, by way of ce- menting the | nion. (Loud and continued applause. ) He hasalluded to Ireland; and 1 might, from that singularly unfortunate country, draw facts of histo- ry incorroboration of the view which he has pre- sented. You know that fora long time the mind of Irelan “ted town to one-eight at the very met. Itwas that unless a man belonged to a class which numbered about one-eight of of lation, no matter what gifts of intellect bestowed upon him, no matter what capacity to lead armies, or guide the deliberations of senates— unless he was found within the limited circle of the fortnnate one-eighth, it was ofno use. Ca oyeatt And yet permit me to make this remark, that out of that one-eighth, there have arisen those to lead your armies, and even guide the deliberations of se- tates, the Burkes and Sheridans, not to speak of that great living man—I call him so, though he was never kind to the country of his birth— Wellington; | say if Ireland, out of one-eight, produced so much intellect, what might she not have produced if ad- vantage bad been taken of the superabundant in- tellect with which that unfortunate country ab unds. | (Applause.)

And although the scenery that first met my young eye might be as charming to meas others, in the age of boyhood, when every- thing is bright; and alt! bh can remember still every line aud curvature of the horison which was at that time to me the end of the world, with nothing be- yond; still, when I became master of the er secret, that | was notto be on an equality witl others of my countrymen, the beauty of the scenery faded, and | thought there must be something be- yond the horizon.

(Laughter and applause.) But still, amidst this, the Catholie Church, sustained by aforce more than human, is making conquests on every side; witness the great men who have adorned thatcommunion which has all the support, honors, and wealthy emoluments of the legislature. These men, in those times, have chosen to pass over and be associated with the humble and de- spised—who by a rabble are held up to ridicule and | contempt. hen these things are going on, de- pend upon it there is no great reason for anxiety on our part.

And when you see | such men as I could enumerate—distinguished men | of that proud establishment of religion by act of | legislation comniag over to us—I have no ground of apprehension.

I shall conclude, gentlemen, by indicat- ing my respect to all, but particularly for one who is present, by proposing the health of our distin- guished chairman. (Loud applause. The toast was received with all the honors. _ The Cuairman then proposed “The United States and their institutions, founded, as they were, on the true principles of religious freedom.” The toast was duly honored. ‘The Most er. Dr. Livers was called upon to respond te the toast. Whenever there is a contro- versy between a Catholic and a Protestant, the Protestant is sure to claim religious freedom asa po that is popular, and of right belongs to his side. (Hear, hear). So far as the United States are concerned, I must qualify the cry very much, and I will tell you_how religious freedom occurred there. In some former times it was not here, as the Puritans found, for bray 4 went to America for the pul of enjoying it; but they never meant it should be enjoyed by bap but themselves—(hear, hear, and laughter)—and they a to be as in- tolerant, and far more persecuting, than the country from which they fled. There were other colonics, for at that time the colonies were settledaccording to religious caste; and we had one Catholic colony, for which I will claim the honor of having set first example of religious freedom which is known on the peges of universal history. That was the colony of Maryland, to which the persecuted quaker of Massachusetts, and the persecuted presbyterian of Virginia, fled from the opposite States as a place of refuge, and in which they found their righ’s im- mediately recognized. When they came tothink they had lived long enough to set up og for themselves, they met, amongst other tl the question of religion came up; and do younow why they have religious freedom? Because they could not agree on any one religion that should be predominant. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) I would take from the Protestants the merit of pro- claiming religious freedom, for I have read a good deal; and to thisday | never founda single instance where Protestantism ted religious freedom where it was in its power to withhold it. (Applause. ) What kind of freedem, the: qoe~ you at Rothe? That does not j com| lo Rome never had but one religion, and for whom would they make religious freedom? (Hear.) The Roman people did not desire it; they had not pe- titioned for it. Look to Franze, with her thirty- eight millions of inhabitants, of which only two and a half millions are Protestants! and are not the Protestants recognized as well as the Catholics? (Hear, hear.) Was not that a fair specimen? Had they ever, for a moment, thought of insulting a testant minister because he called himself by a le which his community conferred upon him! After returning thanks on the part of America, the Doctor concluded by yon pred the memory of O'Connell, which wos in solemn silence. ‘The company broke up shortly after eleven o'clock. American Matters and Manners. the London Atheneum, June 7.) Six years ago there were but four peenetiye plying between the Old World andthe New. Wit! in the last year, Liverpool, Halifax ard New York have been brought into weekly communication in summer—fortnightly in winter. But this arrange- ment no longer meets the ever-growing wants of the two countries. This month, it as been deter- mined by the British and North American Royal Mail Steamship Company to run their vessels every week throughout the year. More persons already pass between England and America than between England and the Continent; but there is this difference—that the great majority over the wide Atlantic never to return to the old country. Could the cost of transit be red, there would be a vast deal more trip and touring of middle- el Snglishmen in tl nited States, with a pro- ef much good resulting from it to both countries. The amount of communication is in- pe om | #0 rapidly, that in ten years from this time we shal probably have our ly departures and ar- rivalsat Galway, Liverpool, and Southampton, to and from one continent, as we have now at Folke- stone, Dover and Ramegate to and from the other. The Americans are a wonderful people. Texas and California—the Mormons and the Kappites— slavery and rowdyism—will not satisfy their cray- ing appetite for novelty and excitement. Though characteristic of the restless it of the land, the p-newest wonder does not, like so many of its prede- | cestors, borrow. its principal charm from a mon | strous mixture of the etiminal and the superstitious. | A change of dress is not a very serious master— | but the nature of the change may provoke a good- | humored smile. Tired, it seems, of the fashions | of Europe—too long the slaves of Paris and London | in all that relates to female frippery and finery— the belles of Woshington and New York are turn- ing their attention to the green and scarlet vests, the muslin trousers and embroidered buskins, of Constantinople. Some of the bolder spirits have already appeared in the pnblic etreets in this orien- tal costume, adding a curious and picturesque fea ture to the somewhat prosy lines ond hues of Broad- way.
