The London Times, in giving a list of the dis- timguished foreigners at the féte of the 10th of May, im Paris, says:-- Among the Americans were General Cooper, Com- mander of the troops of the State of New York; Mr. Van Buren, officer of cavalry; Colonels Rotch and Lawrence, Ajides-de Camp of the Governor of Massachusetts. ©olonel Fremont was in Paris, where it was sup- posed he would remain until the dispute touching his title to the territory in Califernia, on which he hhas granted leases, and the claims on him in Lon- @on, for the expenses of the war in California, for which he had rendered himself personally responsi- hile, can be arranged. The steamship Severn arrived at Southampton on @he Mth inst., forSouth America. Among the pas- sengers was Mr. A.J. Falcao, Consul General of Brazil for the United States, from Rio. The Severn Nanded at Lisbon, M. €. F.J. de Moreira, Brazilian Minister to the United States, and M. A. M. Lisboa, Brazilian Minister for New Granada. Major Schlessinger, the Hungarian who escaped Trom Couta, with several other prisoners taken in Cuba, and two subaltern agents of the presidio, elaimed relief ond protection from the American Consul at Gibraltar; but the latter positively refused 0 receive them. The Russians are said to have sent eighteen en- gineer officers on a secret mission to European Tur- key to collect information as to the resources an army of 110,000 men would find there. The state of the roadsJand other matters would also be inquired into. It was believed that another body of engineers officers had left secretly for Greece and Constantino- ple, to collect more information of the same charac- der. Advices of the 5th April state that the relations between the Austrian and Turkish cabinets had be- ome exceedingly cold, with even the danger of a @omplete rupture, from the aggressive attitude as- wamod hy tha Anstrianc om the Meutiows of Resnia. Some hopes were entertained by the Turks that the new Austrian foreign minister would follow a less hostile policy.

The affairs of the Roman States are going on worse and worse, and the di tion is nearly at its highest point. The Russjan Princes were much féted at Rome by the Pope and the cardinals.

My duty shall be to state the mein facto— the results. The political character thie “‘ festival of the eagles” hae proved a failure— ae.a spectacle it was magnificent, wenderful ; the dense masses of people from all parts that crowded to witness Louis Napoleon, at the head of 70,000 men, were innumerable; but only one sentiment seemed to pervade them—curiosity. Notwithstand- ing the enthusiasm of some of the troops, who lustily shouted Vive’ Empereur, the great mass remained wre thing was a failure. Even these shouts of Vive ?Empereur were so scanty that many persons did not hear them. : The Empire, then, has not been re-established in name; but Louis Napoleon is as much emperor as he needs be, all but thename. Before distributing the eagles or standards to the colonels of the differ- ent regiments, Louis Napoleon made a short address to the troops—the most salient point of which was. that the ‘restoration of the eagle was not intende as a menace to foreign States.” The President called upon the soldiers to swear todie in defence of the emblem he had restered to them. The number of English officers in uniform present at the review was very considerable, The ball at the Ecole Militaire, on Tuesday even- ing, was on an wnexampled scale of grandeur. On Wednesday evening, Paris was the spectacle of splendid fireworks on the Trocaders. . By a curious coincidence, on the very same day (10th May) that the would-be Emperor of France was holding his review of 70,000 men on the Champ de Mars, the Emperors of Austria and of Russia were together reviewing an Austrian army of 30,000 men on the glacis at Vienna, The Emperor of Russia arrived at Vienna on the 8th. He had not been there since he helped to de- feat the Hungarians. He appeared in the uniform of an Austrian hussar, whilst the young Austrian Emperor wore a Russian one. You may be sure that Louis Napoleon’s affairs were pretty amply dis- cussed by these twe imperial worthies, over their Jo- hannisberger after dinner. The Paris Moniteur of Tuesday publishes thirty- four columns of Pevensie in the army. Crosses, orders, and medals, were lavishly distributed. Gen. St. Arnaud is to be made a Marshal of France. A number of Arab chiefs attended the review in their national costume; their swarthy countenances and white flowing robes contrasted well with the uniforms of the President’s brilliant staff. A wag wittily observed, that all the generals were present to welcome them except those that conquered them, Cava and Changarnier. Changarnier has ad- aremad a very strong letter to Louis Napoleon, re- fusing to take the qpth of allegiance. rago, the astronomer, has also refused, and was dismissed from his scientific professorship. Such an act, how- ever, could not fuil to produce a general murmur—so much so, indeed, that he has been reinstalled. The Danish question has been settled in London. Prince Christian, of Glucksburg, is to succeed to the Danish crown on the death of the present Kin % and of the present King’s brother, who are bot! childless. e great powers, including Prussia, have signed a treaty to this effect; they do not, however, guarantee the integrity of the Danish em- pire, though they declare it desirable.

They will all meet shortly at one of the capitals. An entente between the Northern powers is a probable result. A crisisis imminent at Berlin, in consequence of the rejection, by the Second Chamber, of the King’s message relative to the formation of the peerage ; but it is a local question. Tho strengthof the Derby cabinet wes tested the other night to some purpose. On the strength of its recent majorities on the militia bill, the minority became plucky, and resolved to bring in a bill to dispose of the two vacant parliamentary boroughs of St. Albans and Sudbury. Now, the Derby ministry being simply one of sufferance, the opposition op- osed its taking so important a measure. Mr. iladstone proposed ‘‘ the order of the day,”’ and the ministry were defeated by a majority of eighty-six. The Wagner case has terminated. The injunction demanded by Lumley has been confirmed. So the matter rests for the present. Johanna Wagner can- not sing in London withont Lumley’s consent. The public, meantime, are disappointed in not hearing her. 3 Rose Cherie, from Paris, is acting at St. James’ theatre; and the enterprising lessee of that theatre, Mr. Mitchell, has engaged a German dramatic com- pany to perform dramas, tragedies, &c.

Louis Napoleon has hitherto appeared more anxious to allay the distrust and hostility excited abroad by his accession to absolute power, than to re-kindl¢ the martial ardor of France, or to begin a crusade against the began forces of Europe; end the speech delivered by him in the Champde Mers forms no exception to this rule. He has wisely ac- quiesecd in the existing arrangements and engage- ments of Europe; he has avoided, even in his do- mestic policy, what might give umbrage abroad; and it isonly here and there that a word dropped has given ication of deeper views and different pur- noses. But to condnet the foreign affairs of-I"rance in the spirit of n nation covetous of influence abroad and jealous of foreign influence at homo, is an under- taking which may at any time lead to new and em- barrassing questions with the ether powors of Europe; and we have yet to learn what direction will finally be given in this respect to Louis Napoloon’s government. necessive efforts have been made by him to conciliate each of the northern powers, and to detach them from their triple allianee, but those mpts have proved entirely abortive.

Nothing, indeed, can seem more wild to those spectators of public e watched the mutability of France and the vicissitudes of so many royal lines, than to speculate on the chances of the future, not only beyond the boundaries of the present, but even beyond those of human life.

Trace. has acquired much more of an elective than of an hereditary character. The mt head of the State is essentially elective, and France, which has so often recorded her sympath, for Poland, may rank her future sovereigns with the Polish kings. Yet such is the deep-seated pple of hereditary power, that the first object of who have risen to an extraordinary elevation is to perpetuate it; and Louis Napoleon, in following or parodying, step by step, the Policy of his uncle, clings to ‘the idea Hs the Tmy dynasty with as much confidence as it he had been born king of Rome. It is impossible to foresee what results will crown efforts, but we entertain no doubt that the negotiations that are to lead to them are steadily hi These considerations have now aeq so much weight, that they haye elicited from the Count de honor of the symbols of | does nevertheless at- | Chambord the ae Pe and peremptory asier- tion of his claims and of his power, that the exiled court at Jenice has yet thought it prudent to make. In the remarkable letter which appeared yesterday in our second edition, the re} tative of the French monarehy explicitly dec! that it is the duty of his adherents to enter into no en- gagements, and to accept no offices, at variance the grand object of the re-establishment of the legitimate monarchy ; he instructs them to protest against the empire, but without openly resisting it; to endeavor to make themselves useful to the Pepelesiony to support the government against an- archy, but for no other purpose ; and to promote the entire and intimate union of the monarchical party. This manifesto has already produced a strong effect on the royalistsin Paris, which will extend through- out France; for it brings the strength or the weakness, the consistency or the faithlessness, of that party to the proof. It defines the steadfast paras of the monarchy ; it will render them, it be obeyed, as obnoxious to persecution as the Orleanists themselves; it distinctly recom- mends the fusion of both branshes of the royal family ; and it announces the resolution of the Prince ‘‘to aceomplish the great duties imposed ‘on him by Providence.” Nor can it be forgotten that this language is held shortly after the visit of the Russian Grand Dukes at Veniee, and just be- fore the arrival of the Emperor Nicholas at Vienna; and that itis dated from the Austrian dominions. If, therefore, Louis Napoleon was waiting to find a pretext for the declaration of the em ir the hos- tileattitude of his competitors, that time is come. Every day the first men in France are setting a noble example of refusal to take an oath of alle- giance to such a government. Arago and Chan- garnier are but the first, of a long list of non-jurors, alike famous in science, in letters, and in war. The Conseils Généraux have refused the oath in the person of their most illustrious members; and the instructions which have just arrived from Venice had been anticipated by the nobler class of minds in France. Are these symptoms of an approach- ing turn in the opinion of the masses? TI ee, become so; and at any rate it is the duty of ever: honest man to stand aloof from a government whic! is equally opposed to the rights of authority and to the liberties of the nation. The following letter, dated ‘‘ Venice, April 27,” has been addressed to his friends in France by the Count de Chambord:— Since the events of the month of December last I have several times made known to my friends the nature of my sentiments, my wishes, and my desires. But con- sidering the language lately held by the chief of the pre- sent government, and the tendencies which are more and more manifested.

Instead of the elevation of 487 feet, supposed to exist on the strip of land which separates Lake Nicaragua from the Pacific, it seems that the highest rise is forty-eight feet, while, with regard to the river San Juan, it has been found that the Hees part is perfectly avail- able, and that, in the portion where the river can- not be used, the excavation will be through land entirely level and without rock. Under these cir- cumstances the company, it is said, are prepared immediately to proceed, either alone or in con- currence with England, as may be decided upon. The tempor transit which was opened in July, 1861, has yielded a return which is rtion- ately without example, and inspired by this expe- rience, and by the ardor which is now manifesting itself on the subject throughout the entire Union, the leaders of the Ratereeeinee while they express an undiminished desire for a mutual arrangement, state themselves at the same time to be indisposed to any further delay. A prompt and final just- ment of the question is, therefore, to be anticipated. In the eighteen months which have elapsed since the commissioners supine visited England, the Australian discoveries have doubled the urgency, as well as the bee neat of the work, and the in- tentions of the United States to seek a direct inter- course with Japan, and to establish forthwith a steam route to China, have also developed new mo- tives of a momentous character. The impulses to- wards an immediate settlement are, therefore, of the strongest kind; and there can also be no doubt that in cave the company should require it, their own government will be prepared to aid them to the full extent of ite constitutional powers. The American Expedition to Japan. TO THE EDITOR OF THE LONDON TIMES. Smr—In_a former letter, which appeared in the Times of March 29, I showed how the influence of Japan prevented an important market being opened to British enterprise. . The Secretary of the United States navy has since given the world some statistics of the American whaling trade, whose interests are considered as being specially involved in the Japan question. Will you permit me to furnish hae with afew par- ticulars concerning a trade of which it is probable yery little is known, but which may eventually prove of some importance to Great Britain ? Two junks annually leave the port of Napa, inthe island of Loo-Choo, for Foo-Chow-Foo, in China. They arrive in tho Min early in November, and leave, on their return, in June. They carry over the ‘ tribute,” and money, &c., wherewith to pur-* chase ‘‘silk stuffs for official dresses, medicines, and other articles.” During my last visit to Foo-Chow-Foo, I was anxious to ascertain if any, and what, amount of British goods figured among these ‘‘ other articles,” but found greater difficulty than I anticipated in obtaining information about a trade whieh is pre- served as a close monopoly. z The privilege of dealing with the Loo-Chooans is farmed from the Mandarins of the provincial capital of Foquien, by eight or ten brokers or merchants, who reap from it no small advantage. They trans- act all their business, obtain the goods that are wanted, and resell them, of course, at greatly ad- vanced prices, and tend to be the only persons in Foo-Chow-Foo who understand the [Loo-Choo dialect. Last year, 1850-51, they retailed British manufactured goods to the value of $150,000, con- sisting of woollens—viz., long ells, Spanish sti camlets, and lastings; and cotton goods—viz. shirtings, white and gray, yarn, and some printed and fancy goods. Thoy took in exchange copper and gold; the latter, square flat pieces of various standards, but all of low. ow, this copper and gold eomes from Jap! the question arises where the goods go. My belief, founded on my in- quiries and observations at Loo Choo, is that the reater part goes to the Japan Islands, if not to japan itself, and, if this should prove to becorreet, it shows that a demand for British goods already exists in that quarter, and that, in spite of the rigid exclusive policy of the government, it is supplied to a limited extent in this circuitous manner. Iam, sir, your obedient servant, Curzon street, May 8. A Nava. Orricer. Another Riot on Board of an Packet Ship. [From the Liverpool Times, May 15. }, On Tuesday a serious riot occurred on board the packet ship Rappahannock, at present lying in the river, bound fur New York. The cause of the dis- turbance was the robbery of the passengers, 400 in number, by thecrew. About two o'clock on Tues- te while the passengers were undergoing a medi- cal examination, tho crow broke open sume of their boxes, whence they took several bottles of whiskey and other spirits. With these they became furiously intoxicated, and, on being remonstrated with by the injured emigrants, they drew their knives and assaulted them, chasing them about the deck, and threatening to stab and murder all on board. The state of affairs, at this time, was of the most exciting character, the women and the chi dren huddling together and screaming with affright, and the men being also in no small degree of alarm before the threatening knives of the sailors. A considerable riot—in fact the greater part of it—occurred hetween decks, and here, indeed, the most serious portion of the affair took place. One of the emigrants was severely wounded with a knife, by a sailor named Burns, who w however, severely ill-treated by the passengers. The aspect of aflairs induced some of the parties on board to hail the Woodside steamer, and to reqnest help. Intelligence was conveyed to Mr. Clough, at American the police office, and a detachment se off in the steamer Athens; Inspector Burne Birkenhead force, also going on board the ship. A hew crew was taken on board. Sixteen of the crew were then singled out, namely, Andrew Carroll and John Leggett (Americans), John Campbell and Thomas Wilson (Irishmen),Jos. Naughton, (Norwe- ian), Robert Durham, Daniel Jackson, and Wm. Murray (Americans), Chas. P. Miller (Norwegian), James Lyons (American), Wm. Parks and Charles Lomer (Englishmen), Foter Joseph (Italian), James Jones (Austrian), William Maddison (American), and John Burns {sishman). These men were ta- ken on shore at Woodside, t in that portion of the river, and they were booked on a charge of refusing to work and proceed to sea | in the ship. OnWednesday morning, atten o'clock, Captain Cushing, of the Rapphannock, along with his mate, the wounded man M’Donald, and a num- ber of witness ere in attendance at the Town- hall. Birkephead ; but, as two magistrates could not be procured, the hearing of the case was do- ferred until intimation was despatched to one or two of the magistrates who lived on that side the water. The captain and witnesses evinced considerable irritation at the delay to which they were subjected. Hour after hour elapsed in ex- pectation of a second magistrate arriving, but all the parties connected with the transaction were doomed to disappointment ; tor after waiting un- til five o’clock in the afternoon, and after every exertion had been ineffectually used to procure a magistrate, Mr. Gregory, the magistrate’s clerk, in- timated that the case could not be heard until the | following day (Thursday). It is unnecessary to add that the captain (who evinced much anxiety tohave the prisoners punished) and the other witnesses, took their departure, loudly complaining of the manner in which mogisterial matters were conducted in Bir- kenhead. On Thursday morning the prisoners were brought up before Messrs. Case and Shaw for exami- nation. Fortunately for the rioters, no person a) peared to prosecute, Captain Cushing, his mate, tl wounded man M’Donald, and the other i witnesses, having sailed in the Ri annock, at 4 o'clock that morning, for New York, leaving the risoners to their fate. After a few words from Mr. Jase to the prisoners, on the impropriety of their conduct, they were discharged. The Emigration frem Europe. German emigration continues to increase, there Lai} vessels sont off daily with from 150 to 290 on beard, to the United States and Canada princi- ly. A yeasel which leaves Galway bay this day (May 1)) for America, takes out with her 117 passengers, and these are all of a better clags than the majority of emigrants who are in the habit of leaving this it. To the statistics of emigration this jpring, direct from the port of Limerick, previously pub- lished, are to be added the ships Hebe, for Quebec, 237 passengers ; the Argent, for New York, 94 pas- sengers; and the Charles, for Boston, 89 paseon- ors, making a total of is ships for the United States, with 1,654 cmigrants, and nine ships for Canada, with 1,655 emigrants—grand total of 22 al with 3,309 passengors.

Celebration of the Queen’s Birth Day—Military Re. view—The Governor Gencral’s Levee--The Scots King, Robert Bruce, and his Descendants--Kos- suth and Liberty--Political Intelligence, §c. The sun rose bright and beautiful, yesterday: upon the natal day of her most gracious majesty, giving her most dutiful subjects in this city, an ex- cellent opportunity to evince their loyalty, by a pro- per observance of the occasion. The steamship Si- moom came into the harbor the day previous, with a detachment of soldiers, to relieve some of the re giments here, and added to the interest of the occa- sion by firing salutes, landing troops, &c. The ship- ping inthe harbor was handsomely decorated with flags, and the different barracks and soldiers’ quar- ters were ornamented in the same manner. At eleven o’clock the troops in the garrison, to the number of 1,500, paraded on the Plains of Abra ham. This plain, the battle ground of Wolfe and Montcalm, is owned by the \ FAbet Saeaty: and oceu- pied as a parade ground for the troops, and is also used asa race course by the Quebec Jockey Club. It is a magnificent jes for military evolutions, and looks as if formed by nature as a field on which to decide the fate of empires. A beautiful monu- ment to Wolfe, surmounted with a sword and hel- met, on the exact spot where he fell, overlooks the whole field; deseending to the river is a cove, wh Wolfe landed his troops on the morning of the bat- tle, which is still called after his name. Classibus hie locus—hic acies certare yolebant At eleven, the troops commenced their evolutions, and at a quarter to twelve Lady Elgin and family arrived upon the ground in an elegant carriage, with outriders and footmen in gorgeous liv escorted bya number of army officers on horsch At tivelve, the firing of cannon announced the arrival of his Excellency the Governor General, who en- | tered the field surrounded by a brilliant staff of aides-de-camp, among whom was his lordship’ brother, Colonel Robert Bruce. The field was pretty well filled with the citizens of Quebec—the aris- tocracy in carriages, cockneys on © 'orseback,”” an the multitude on foot. A few de joie was fired, the soldiers raised their hats and hurrahed for the Qaeen, his Excellency bowed his uncovered head, the hel- met on Wolfe’s monument looked more fierce, the ir was filled with smoke, and the music struck up “God save the Queen.” ‘The troops _went through their evolutions in 3s exact order. His Excellency | was in plain clothes, distinguished by his formidable | white whiskers. He was well mounted, and sat his | horse gracefully. His aids were, for the most part, miserably mounted, and rode like so many tailors. broke and ran, causing great consternation amon; the spectators, who in their flight full over an upon each other. At half-past eight inthe evening, Government House, which had been elegantly de- corated tor the occasion with evergreens, flags, &e., &c., was thrown open for the citizens to pay their respects to her Majesty’s representative. e form of presentation is this :—You ge in dress, hand your card to the porterat the door, pass into the audience room, hand your card to an aid-de-camp, who passes it to another, and he to a third, who an- nouncesyou to the Governor, who gives a very low and very graceful bow—her Ladyship makes aall ht oa da pass on, and out. The Go- yernor and Iady are surrounded by the Executive Council, aids in uniform, and their ladies. The house, last evening, was densely crowded with the respectability and beauty of the city. Lady Elgin was dressed in a very rich and ele- gant style, with a wreath of diamonds. His xcellency was in full uniform, with the de- corations of the order of Elgin and 0. There were many beautiful ladies present; amon; others, a young lady in a blue dress, without arti- ficial ornaments, worthy to be a queen (if I were king she should be one); and a large number of others, whose sparkling eyes caused ys to dream of Venus, Minerva, Helen, Cleopatra, and all the idesses and heroines ofantiquity. Thus ended the icen’s birthday; and may there be many teturns of ittoher Majesty and to us the people. But still it occurs to me to make some philosophical reflec- tions. While we are innocently cele! rating tho natal day of a sovereign by military evolutions, ‘* pomp and cireumstance,” of vice-regal splendor, running in bags, chasing pigs with soaped tails, &c., &c., you, without the fear of Majesty before your ¢: re celebrating the day on which you ot rid of kings, by burning gunpowder and making lourth of July orations about liberty. Do you know that you are setting bad examples by doing this? Further, your people repudiate our custom of being ruled by a Queen, and yet your ladies, clad in bloomers, come among her Majosty’s dutiful and reach the * divine rights” of women to rule and to wear the unmentionables, “hat a strange paradox! The citizens of Boston had an opportunity last year to see our very popular Governor General, and to hear a epeech ‘from him on the occasion of the great railroad celebration. Lord Elgin is the most enlightened, liberal, and poputor Governor that Canada, haa ever had.

Scotland never was conquered ; and when the time, 90 long foretold, shall come, in which the ‘Cossack shi water his steed in the Thames,” and eradicate tha last germ of civil and religious liberty from the ba~ lance of Europe, her storm-proof fortresses shall present an inprognable barrier, and her highlands and glens shall afford a safe asylum for that much worshipped, much abused, and ill-treated 83. whom everybody pretends to worship, searce anybody knows anything about. Let Kossuth re- member the history of Scotland, and take oo: . let Kinkel think of it, and hope ; let Horace Greeley ‘make a note of it,” and never despair, By the way, it is said that one of our public functionaries, some time since, sent a letter of invitation to the Hungarian chief, to visit the capital of British America, to which his Excellency has deigned no reply. He has snubbed our city, and treated with (i the memory of heroes whose names will live when his is forgotten. Does he know that we have more guns here than he can buy, at two dollars splece with forty thousand dollars of Hungarian onds The Hon. Mr. Cameron was returned in the Hu ron district, Canada West, without opposition, the conservative candidate withdrawing from the eon- test. It is said that the Canada Land Company in that county issued four hundred deeds to their ten- ants, to enable them to vote, in order to defeat Mr. Cameron. Those deeds would have matured on the first of July, when it was expected the election would come on. It was very unkind towards the conservatives for the gevernment to bring on the election so early as to defeat the means they had taken; andif the tenants of the Land Company, who have now got their deeds, should hereafter vote the reform ticket, as they will be very apt to do, it willbe the unkindest thing of all. We have in this country the property qualification for votes. The value of = jackass, or landed property to that amount, entitles a man to vote, and to sit in Parliament. If the jackass dies, or his value in property is lest, the man is not ® voter, and cannot sit in Parliament. In this view of the case, in whom does the right of voting exist, and who is the real representative in Parlia~ ment—the man or the ass? Let some of our practi- cal reformers answer. . The Postmaster General has returned from Wash- ington city, having effected an arrangement by which the Canadian mails are brought direct from New York without delay. He reports the Yorkers as very clever fellows, and the government at Wash- ington as extremely friendly and well disposed to- wards this country. The present Postmaster Genoral has the credit— and very deservedly—of being the most efficient man ever at the head of that department. The Commis- sioner of Public Works, Hon. John Young, is ab- sent on an official tour through the province. The veteran Commissioner of Crown Lands has had the whole tory preas of the province down upon him, for removing some subordinates from office for inatten- tion to their duties. Had they been radicals, the Gee press would have applauded the act to the echo. ° A queer ane has risen here, likely to lead to rebellion, bloodshed, and perhaps civil war. The Governor General, the other day, took it into his head to raise a flag-staff on the grounds in front of the government house. The Mayor protested against it, ona clause of a municipal regulation forbidding auctioneers (!) to raise flag-stafis. His Excellency persisted, the flag-staff went up! the union jack floats rom it. What is to be the result ne one can foresee. The Imperial Government against the Corporation ! His Excellency versus his Worship! There is, how- ever, a garrison of British soldiers in the citadel, and a vessel of war in the harbor. We back the Governor against the Mayor—the Bruce inst tha parvent. Tue OruER RUCK.
