This is the signal for an outery of the royalist papers against Lord Palmerston. The manifesto does not meet with much 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, a‘ter 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 secing him fall, the prince hastened to him, and offered bis hand, but the baron rudely pushed, it aside, saying, “I have nothing in common with you!” The cause of the duel was an assertion of the baron, that in 1848 the prince had shown cow- ardice and bid 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, fives closing 30 cen- | times better than on Wednesday tho 11th. ‘The question of the revision has assumed so un. promising a shape, that the Duke de Broglie his a 106 sion; and the whole sum of my conclusion was, that she was very beautiful in animated conversation, anda woman of uncommon talents.

KR. ‘The Dinner to the Most Rev. Dr. Hughes, the Catholic Arch! 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 Hotel, to his Grace 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 clegance for which Mr. Radley is so distinguished. Al 120 gentleman sat down. * * * * * * * Mr. Asrivwatt 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 . HisGrace the Axcnursuor, on rising, was re- ceived with renewed applause. le said:—Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen—I feel too much op- essed with the honor which you have done me, to Be able to find uttoranco tthe sentiments to which my heart is moved on this occasion. I con- ider it a peculiar good fortun in this visit to le 5 that, the first night I landed on European soil, 1 had the unexpected honor and pleasure of being introduced to you in your festive assembly as the Catholic Club A § Liverpool ; and it isa happy termination of my pilgrimage in Europe that the last night of my stay is spent as this evening is about to pass. (avsiane) 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 . of the sun, an the language which it is mine to speak is under- intimated that, though he is willing to assume the office of President, he cannot undertake to draw up the report of the committee. The reporter will not be selected for about three weeks. It is sap- posed that the choice will now fall upon M. de Toc- que ville. Modifications of the military were spoken of in Spain on the 7th inst. ‘The Prussian post office had reduced the 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 banka 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 county of Edinburgh. The deceased viscount, al- though a British peer, took little interest for two years in political affairs. In early and middle life, however, he occupied a somewhat prominent place in the political world, having been president of the Beard of Trade, in the administration of Mr. Per- cival, 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 kind of soap. A sample has been submitted to che. mica] analysis. Our Genoa Correspondence. Gevxoa, May 28, 1851. Genoa— The House of Colunbus— Catharine Hayes— Marie Maberlini—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 {ff 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 great missionary of the Divine will, my heart swelled and glowed with gratitude that such a man once lived to point out a road over the boroiti of the mighty dvep, to the heautifal shores of what has since become out own beloved and happy America—happy under the control of that same watchful and ever kind Providence, which gaided 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, were it not for a marble ablet which tells what it is. And what next shall | write about to assist in — a short letter? or why do I propound euch a question, 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? Well, 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 roms, and the performances take place at stipulated times, and are advertised the preceding day by enormous printed bills, as operas are advertised in the other chief towns of Italy Here in Genoa, | heard, for the first time, the | that in order to ascertain | stood, | needed no introduction from the moment that I first | had spoken to them the truths of the one holy Ca- tholie faith. (Loud applause.) That faith is not British. (Hear, hear, and applause.) It is not provincial. It is not whig. Itis not tory. It is not democratic. Butit is Catholic, divine, made for mankind, and not for provinces or ions 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 comes and identifies itself, reproduces itself in the heart—(hear)—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 phenomenon in that beautiful art which we are seeking so much to revive. Itis analagous to an old window of stained ery 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, afterall, the audience inside find it so blended that the colors display the living—leaving the unity of the faith, notwith- standing the presets 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 becoming in me, to follow out any contrast in regard to this; but one thing I know, with re, to those who are separa- ted from the unity of the Catholic faith, and it is— differences, we need not travel at all. (Laughter.) Everywhere, sects one wherever | should have found those who would have | health of one whom I know you honor—who, I have reason to know, deserves to be honored, in a time like this, when the forces, the invincible forces of truth and aod in men are in conflict with each other—when hy man legislatures are attempting to elucidate the presence of truth, and the consequences of its belief and profession. It is at this very time we Catholics ought to feel more confidence in our position, for, notwithstanding the di nts of earth, per- | haps there has no period in modern hii in which more numerous and more disting: ac- | cessions to our religion have taken place from those | who, by adopting a different course, might have promoted their worldly interests, than one in which we live ; and if there is anything could add to the pleasure | experience from the cordial recep- tion vow bave given me, it is this, that on first landing in Li as now, faeornes,.. ‘ing brought &.to communion with the Cat Club, | what I took to be a very fair and honorable spe vi men of the feeling which ory to pervade the Ca- tholics of this empire, and is a feeling of perfect —a good old English word well known on board ships—of aur steadiness. (Applause.) There was a pul good, healthy, ty, Catholie pulse, beating ; but then, it was neither faint, falt- ering, nor feverish, nor is it now, and it ia this- gentlemen, 7 and your countrymen should yer pare to meet whatever may result from the delibe- rations of your senate in regard to one of the rights ofour religion. (Applause.) Ido not know that the Catholic Church has asked anything of the British legislature ; I do not think they have asked a single favor; and if you will permit me to present it in the form it say that the hig! u pect itself to my mind, [should est obligation which the Pope and ‘he hierarchy sought from the British ronment the loan of a few letters of the alphabet— (laughter)—the English alphabet, which we thought to be common property~so that instead of Melipotamus, or what is it? you might take an- other set of letters; and if the legislature of Great Britain thinks it important to legislate against this, that is their affair. (Laughter and applause.) But still, amidst this, the Catholic Church, sustained by a force 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 thoso 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. Look at those who have come among you in the midst of a tempest unaccountable as it is to mo; for when they brought me papers on board, I thought it was a trick of editors et up an excitement. Careher) Then I could not comprehend it—now [ think I can; but I shall not ‘ive my grounds till we see w may happen. In the meantime, the Catholic religion is triumphant, andmore triumphant because nothing is done by | human effort to sustain it, and because all the great influences which sustain this earth are, in a great measure arrayed against it. And when you see such men as I could enumerate—distinguished men of that proud establishment of religion by act of | legislation coniag over to us—I have no ground of apprehension. We give them an exchange—for im- stance, now and then, such aman as Gavazzi we give them for ahundred of theirs. Kee gcd and ap- lause.) 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 recvived with all the honors. ¥ then proposed “The United institutions, founded, as they were, true principles of religious freedom.” ‘The tow was dul red. ‘Lhe Most Dr. Livenes was called upon to respond te (!. toast. Whenever there is a contro- versy between a Catholic and a Protestant, the Protestant is sure to claim religious freedom asa ery that is popular, and of right belongs to his side. (Hear, hear). So far as the United States are concerned, I must qualify the ery 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 they went to America for the pu of enjoying it; but they never meant it should be enjoyed by any but themselves—(hear, hear, and laughter)—and they began to be as in- tolerant, and farmore persecuting, t' the country from which they fled. There were other colonies, for at that time the colonies were settled according to rion caste; and we had one Ci ic colony, for which I will claim the honor of having set t! first example of religious freedom which is known on the popes of universal history. That was the colony of Maryland, to which the persecuted quaker of Massachusetts, and the persecuted presbyterian separated from the other; in the same sect pare : y sul ive feparated from party, and in each sions; so that, fag to find out variety or differ- e1.ce, it is altogether unneces: to leave their own homes and congrogations. (. ypnee.) Gentle- men, your abies bas spoken of 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 circumstances 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 Europe holds ‘tirat. in unity there is strength. I conceive that every man who loves the strength of the British Empire must deplore the tacle which its guardians now exhi when they are spending day after day legislating for two- thirds against the other one-thirde by way of ce- menting the nion. (Loud and continued applause.) alluded to Ireland; and 1 might, from that si ‘ly 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 Ireland: wat pared down to one-eight at the very -mett. Ib-was held that unlors a man belonged to a claes which numbered about one-eight of yo a ot lation, no matter what gifts of intellect G bestowed upon him, no matter what lead armies, or guide the deliberations unless he was found within the limited circle of the fortnnate one-eighth, it was of no use. eR And yet permit me to make this remark, that out of that one-eighth, there have arisen those to lead yourarmies, 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; I say if Ireland, out of one-eight, produced so much intellect, what might she not have produced if ad- vantage had been taken of the superabundant in- tellect with which that unfortunate country abounds. (Applause.) As for myself, it is true 1 was born in feels nd; and it is true | am proud of my birth. (Ap- plaure, applause.) I was not of the fortunste num- ber. (Laughter.)

Inher company Ihave had the pleasure of passing several hours at different times, after having listened to her spirit moving songs.

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 majority over the wide Atlantic never to return to the old country.

CHARGE OF BIGAMY—BXTRAORDINARY CASE OF MIS- TAKEN IDENTITY. Considerable curiosity has existed for some days past, as to a strange etory that has been afloat, of a husband supposed to have been dead, returning, and finding his wife married to another, claiming her, and having insti- tuted a prosecution for bigamy ; but nothing very relia- ble transpired publicly, until yesterday, when the wife appeared before Justice John B. King, who had commit- ted her for examination on the above charge. The de- fendant is a young woman about twenty years of age, and described herself as a milliner. Her name is Olive H.Marum. The deposition of John Marum states that the was married to him in the month of July, 1850, and that she unlawfully intermarried with one Richard George Rutherford, in January last. Ex-Judge Dikeman appeared for the accused, and the defence is contained in the answer given by her to the usual question, viz: That she did not know the complain- ant was alive at the time of her marriage with Rutherford; on the contrary, her father and mother had told her that they had examined the body of a drowned man at Pot- ters field, New York, and had become perfectly satisfied that it was the bedy of her first husband; this was some- time before her marriage with Rutherford ; from the statements they made to her after this examination, she did verily believe that her husband was dead, and did continue go to believe until after: ger with Ruth- erford, and until the 16th June instant, when he (Ma- rum) came to the house where she lived. Lydia Martin, sworn for the defendant—Resided at 12 Naseau street; defendant was her daughter; knew her husband, John Marum; they were married July 11, 1850; defendant continued to reside with witness, has done ‘so ever since; the complainant remained wi:h her four weeks after her marriage; after hs had left, witness saw a notice in a New York paper, which induced her to beli him dead. She cut out that notice (produced and filed; it was an account of an se on some unknown man); she supposed it was John Marum, whose body was found: went with her husband to the Potte:’: field, and caus :d the body to be disinterred; when disinterred the features were obliterated, but the hair was long and black, like Marum’s; the pantaloons were dark olive green, such as he ured to wear at their house; the red flannel shirt which was on the bedy had black hooks and eyes upon the wrists, like one which Maram wore, where buttons are usually placed. ‘The body bad on un under white flannel ehir:; witness's daughter (defendant) had pre- viously made a white flannel shirt for him; we examined that shirt, and cut a piece of it out at witness's request; it contained a portion of the sewing; the seam was made with a double herring-bone stitch, and made with double cotton, and that not cut; in all these particulars it eor- responded with the shirt made by her daughter for the cemplainant; from this examination her husband and self bec: satistied that it was the body of Marum, and they expressed that opinion to persons standing by; that was in September, 1850, the 22d or the 234; when they returned she communicated that information to her daughter Thomas Martin, sworn—Wos the father of the defen- dant; be corroborated the evidence of the last witness; and added, he observea the finger nails on the body cor- responded with those of Warum; they were very short, and Warum used to bite his nails. Jonathan Stearns, sworn—Was warden of Randal’s Island in Sept,, 1850; Martin and wife had called upon him for the purpose of getting the body disinterred, and he had given a note to the person in charge; saw them when they returned, and they had expressed’ themselves satisfied it was eetets of their son-in-law. William C. Webb, tant Keeper at Randall’s Island, remembered Mr. and Mrs. Martin having the body disinterred; they had described the clothing before it was disinterred ; he would have made an affidavit of the ; they spoke of the white flannel yy their daughter, and being stitched herring bone; spoKe also of the black hocks and eyes upon the red shirt; his hair they said was black and Jong; [agree ag dark, and of her- ring-bone, being sewed with double thread; the descrip- tion cf the hair and height which they gave corresponded exactly with that of the dead body; the bedy was in such a state that no person could ident it from its features; after the examination, they said that the body was that cf their son-in-law. Matthew Gilmour and Ann Brown, residing at that time om Randall's Island, corroborated the former wit- nerres asto the circumstances of the disinterment of oy and its correspondence with the description; a8 di Uhristian Jacobs, who dug up the body, and cut the piece out of the shirt.—Ile believed the piece shown in court was the rame, the body could not have been iden- tified its features by its most intimate friends, The Kev.

THE CLIPPER SHIP HORNET—THE OLD AND NEW. HORNET. This last addition to the splendid clipper fi that have already sailed snd are preparing to from our port, will be down town to her in a few days, when those interested in first rate specimens of marine architecture will have opportunity of inspecting one of the finest clipper shi that ever left a ship yard; indeed, in the estimation o many nautical men, she is considered the finest and build of any vessel heretofore constructed in this apy other country, The Hornet rates 1,600 tons, carpenters’ measuremen Her length is 206 feet on. deck, 40 feet beam, and 23 feet depth of hold. She has 30 inches dead rise, amd cs her floor well forward and aft, and terminating at cach, end, in an extreme sharp, forming straight lines, ang making, on the whole, one of the most symunetrical ang rakish ships the eye ever beheld. ; She has two decks, the upper one being entire flustey- fore snd aft, showing as much room as a line of battled ship with clear decks; and in regard to her strength, in wood and fastenings, it appears an impossibility to have a vestel constructed on more scientific prinelples. She bas a square stern, ornamented with a gilt carving of” the Lawrence coat of arms. representing two boys. sitting on topmast yard, supporting a shield with a fou: anchor. Her frame consists of white oak, live oak, and locust, her topsides and ends being entirely of the two last. She: has three kelsons, one main, and two side kelsons ate tached, forming an immenre back bone, of sus~ taining thrice the burden of the ship. me of her breastworks are six feet in the thi and her knees average 23 inches, with 12 to 15 inch face. Her forecastle and cabin are below deck, the latter finished im the most superb style. and in point of taste and beauty, though smail, cannot very easily be excelled, Her spars are in perfect proportion, and mene, appear adapted to carry all rail as long as spars and rigging will ttand. Her mainmast is 35 inches im diameter, main yard 80 feet. and from deck to main track 165 feet tover above the head. ‘The rest of the spars are n accordance. ‘This ship Is owned by Mesere.

W. Skiddy, probably the following graphic deseription of the action from the journal of Capt. §., then a midshipman in the Mornet, will not be thought out of place here :-— “March 15, 1815, we arrived off the island of Tristian d’Acurea, in lat, 37 deg. south, and 11 deg. long west. Our first lieutenant, David Conner, had just landed whem the signal was made for him to return, in consequence of a strange sail heaviag in sight, and standing dowm before the wind for us.
