On the 22d of June, 1815, second abdication was ing from the , and he affected at the same time to pro- claim his infant son Napoleon Ii. The ehild was at ‘that momont at Vienna, in the hands of his grand- whose armies occupied # large portion of the France. Lucien Bonaparte was selected, as the most liberal member of the Soper family, to make this communication to the Legislature. He ‘was coldly and bitterly received, for it was well mown that the abdication had only boen given to avoid the indignity of a deposition, and toe Assem- bly was more inclined to outlaw Napolean than to accept his son. It is historically fils that ho was so “proclaimed by the two Chambers in the last Durst of vanquished patriotiem.” Manuel made an ttempt to o: @ vote ia favor of the imperial claims; but it fell flat, for the immens+ majority of both Chambers was eager to gos rid of the Bona- partes, to mi with the enemy, and to gee the constitutional monarchy restored. Is is bie that a fow surreptitious acts may have eon put forth in the name of Napoleon II., ‘by some of the more eager partisans of ths imperial family; but thst is all. They were of no more authority than Louis Napoleon’s own proclamations at Strasburg and Boulogae, and they wore never eye dee vy the Chambers, the nation, or by the rest of Europe. These are facts which can neither be refuted nor forgotten, and though it is perfectly competent te the “ logic of ‘the people ” to bestow on Lou's Napoleon whatever figure it may choose to affix to bis uame, it is im- possible to acquiesce in a misrepreseutation of past events, in which this country, in common with her | allies, took no inglorious share No doubt, from the manifssi importanos which Louis Napoleon has atteched in his xddrozs to thia | vn pera 3 ill af | | subj he is already aware thit he has advanced | pretensions whica will meet with no recogaition | abroad; and although the whole of Europe is ready | to acknowledge him a8 Exoperor of the French, it | would be base and contemptible to eonvey in that | acknowledgement @ disevowal of ono of ths most | brilliant periods of our own bistory Wo know not | Gf the concluding words of this harangne. in which | he declares thet ‘* while be wxinta’ps perce, he will | ield in nothing which may couch the oonorandthe | Bignity of Fiance,” are alto to be understood to ba | applied to the question raised upon tae numerical addition to the Liperial ti But sre aro a a loss to seein what manver honor and dignity of France are in any way t ed by 0 nega‘ive and | murely personal an objection.

I: is impossible not to | regret that this discussion has been raived for so very futile an object, if, indeed, anything bo fatile which throws light on the intentions of # new ani uncertain power; but it has not only been raised, but discussed, in a tone which is not likely to carry | conviction to the rest of Europa. though it betravs resentment at the opposition already eneouatered by the French government onthis point We shail not, however, allow ourtelves to form a hasty and conclusive ion from the tenor of this speech, | which was addressed to the French Senate, aud not to foreign States. Within a few hours i: is probable that the language in which the new emperor is to announce his accession to the reat of Europs will be known, either by publication in this day’s Moni- teur, or by tho usual channels of official communi- eation. We shall hope to find in that decument signs of a more temperate spirit. and of a dizposi- tion to enter into more precise esgagemznts; for if these were altogether wanting it would become a matter of serious consideration what course it most becomes the dignity and seeurity of the other States of Europe to pursue.

One of those two gen- tlemen was Mr. Johnstone. On his side it was most strovgly denied that any push was given by him to Mr. Oliveira; but Viscount Drumlanrig deposed to afact which probably may afford a clue to the wysiery, He stated, “ We”—that is, Mr. Stirling, Mr. Jobnstone, and i“ d a oab near Drummond's bank.

There is equal dbnflict of authorities as to the mode of Mr. Oliveira’s retreat after ho had ac- complished this feat of arms. He says that he “continued his course” towards the Haymarket. His oppovents say that he actually ‘‘ran away ” There seems lees doubt as to what followed. Mr. Johnstone, immediately upon receiving the blows, turned back out of the cab, pursued and overtook Mr. Oliveira, who was yet but a few paces distant, struck him, and laid him prostrate in the gutter Ib appears certain that at this point Mr Jobas‘one in- flicted one or more kicks upon Mr Oliveira as ho he as he atates, in a ‘condition of insensibility.” ir.
