Whilst Louis Napoleon was at Compiegne, despite ‘we frivolous occupation of hunting, riding, avd dancing, he was also busily engaged witb his minis ters and friendly advisers in the manufactnre of the articles of the new constitution, which were sent by geurier to Paris, where the Senate elaborated them asd decided in their favor. At last, the important Senatus-consultum ot which I have already spoken, was voted on the 24th inst., by a majority of sixty- fear votes against seven; and this document, signed by MM. Baroche (the same individual who boasted of having first proclaimed the republic in Paris), Beaber and Delangle, was taken to Compiegne and | presented to the Emperor, who ratitied it on the 2uth ima. Among the principal articles of that Senatws- sonsultum, you will see that Louis Napoleon has the might of pardon and amnesty; that the power to make tweaties of commerce, to declare war, and sign treaties of peace, is given to him; that his first son is ‘te be called “Imperial Prince,” and his relatives | and last, not least, that the oath wf allegiance to be made to him will be expressed as :—“I swear to obey the constitution, and to be faithful to the Emperor.” Napeleon has decreed, in case he should have no shildren, his beloved uncle, Jerome Napoleon Bona- parte, and his direct heirs, the legitimate male ehildren of Princess Catherine of Wurtemburg, the wemen particularly excluded, would be called to his nothing to say about the Senatus-cousultum was voted after a long debate, of which I have en in my letters. I will only add, that continued in the Senate till the last mo- icularly about the articles relative to the conunerce and the declaration of war, as signature of peace, which were to be made peror alone, without consulting the Senate proper course. But the majority, bribed by of things, finally decided to submit to this of disdain, and all was over. for the decree of the Emperor, relative fo th ition of Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte as the «i ‘ir to the throne of France, it was received utmost dislike by the public, and the best this general uneasiness was the fall of the » Which was immense on Fr last. itis that ex-King Jerome is badly considered and that he is far from being popular. son, his republican prin 2 favor of the red republicans tha ‘wise republicanism, have rendered him an objec fear for al! those who are opposed to the return of the revolationary ¢ of 1793, as well as to those, milder, of 1848.

Whilst Abd-el-Kader was leaving France to go to , Bon Masa, another Algerian prisoner, w ‘was detained in the Castle of Ham, near Ami where Louis Napoleon was also imprisoned \, Leuis Philippe, received the grant of living in libe within the Brits of the French dominions. It spears, that though the imperial government wished te favor Bon Masa, they did not think proper to al- Jew him to leave France, and to go to remain in Syria ‘with his correligionnaire, Abd-el-Kader. The trial of the insurgés of Bédarrienx, who had yaired the standard of revolt after the coup d¢at and committed so many murders, was ended on the 24th ult. Eight men have been sentenced to death, ‘two to the galleys for life, and two to twent r ef the same punishment. This sentence has been red as very severe. and it is hoped tlmt the ror will commute their punishment, at least for a few of these unfortunate men, driven t by their exalted political principles.

In many gardens the apricot, peach, and otber fruit trees, are in fall bloom. The féte at the Tuilleries and Hotel de Ville is postponed until the end of the month; but I have to mention a treat given on Saturday last, at the Grand Opera, by Musard, the celebrated orchestra leader, who gave, in that immense hall, the firet masked ball of the season. There is apprehension felt by all the fashionable people in going tothe first ball of the opera, for fear it will not be crowded. This was not the case on Satorday last, for at 22 o'clock, the bour, the doors were opened, the theatre was invaded by a large number of men and women, in costume, black dominoes, and dominoes of all colors, who mingled with the gentlemen in black suits, aud then the fan began. A few hours before this fantastica! ball had taken place, the new circus, called Cirgue Napoleon, built under the care of M. Dejean, hy M. Hiltorff, had opened its doors for the first time, to a crowd amount- ing to 10,000 people, among whom were the Emper- or, his imperial family, and all the dignitaries of the new empir. This place of amusement, which is sitaated on the Boulevard du Temple, on the frontier of Boulevard Beaumarchais, is the ue plus udira of refinement for a circus, and may be used as & model for any building of the same | kind to be erected in any country. The outside of this is covered with has reliefs in the style of those of the Parthenon, and thé inside of the house has been painted by M. Gesse, who has re ted the finest scenes of the art of horseman- ship of Paris and of Europe. The roof of the new circus is supported without columns, and at | the centre of it there hangs a huge and mag- | nificent chandelier, which contains twelve hun- dred burners, and throws @ superb light on | the whole amphitheatre. Every seat is covered with crimson velvet, gilt on the The archestra is excellent, and the display of horseman- ship without equal in any country. A canter was | sung in honor of the Chief of the State by M. Lau- | rent, a baritone, of the Second Comic 0; House, (Theatre Lyrique.) and at the end of the perform- | ance the workmen of the circus presented the Ens) | ror with a splendid houquet. Though all this affair had been made up by the Bonapartists, there was no enthusiasm in the crowd. A fete, which offered a very brilliant coup d’ail, | and Which, from all the reports I have heard, was | no doubt admirably managed, took place at Lyons on the 10th inst., for the inauguration of the grand | statue representing the Holy Virgin, which was placed on the top of the Chureb of Tourviere. On Sunday last the whole city was tluminated as if by enchantment, and seemed to be all in flames. Songs | in honor of the Roman religion were heard in all | parts of the city, and the citizens seemed to be much excited. It is well known through Christendom that the people of Lyons are the most religions of the world. The railways are progressing in a wonderful man- ner in F) , and L have particularly to mention that from Lyons to Avignon, which, owing te the fine continued with great celerity. From 88 is remark- is now build- | ief that the whole road will be completed by the beginning of 1854. In Paris, the ¢ ilway, called chemin de fer de ceinture, which was intended to unite the depots, for the better accommodation of travellers and mer- chandise, was finished and inaugurated on Monday last. A dozen wagons, adorned with flags and branches of foliage, were occupied by distinguished | members of the government and members of the press, who were conveyed around Paris, from one de- pot to another, and finally to the depot of Strausburg, where they lunched. A very curious invention hfs heen perfected, and | exhibited in publie on Sunday last, around the | church St. Vincent de Paul. It is a carriage, directed by means of a machine filled with compressed air, which moves three wheels. The wagon contained two gentlemen, who, with much ability, directed the | and Muscongus, and the Ant,” and 1 cannot refrain from te Le evulinse ayent monte ‘Tout ete, ‘Se trouva fort depourroe Quand la bwinne fut verve Adieu primes, actions, Bonnes obMigations 1 Fula oi oe —_.. hes le Sa Voir ive, ‘ia priaut de tel preter ; Quelque argent pour tripoter Jusqu'd la hausee mouvelie ‘Je vous paieral, lui ditebe, Avec votre eapite La we n' teune.

At Com- piegne the fetes have not been animated; and the oe Cage worth giving in this gossip comet pondence, is ladies’ great shooting party, whic took place on Friday last, in the forest, at which twenty ladies were present, with guns, shot and pow- der. It appears that these Amazons of Louis Napo- leon’s had the faucy to make their appearance in public with short petticoats, trowsers and boots, and to share the pleasures of the gentlemen. When they left their apartments ang entered the hall where the’ rendezvous de chasse was, 2 general laugh took piace, which was occasioned bythe Bloomer-like cos- ne of those ladies, Despite of the ridicule, these brave sportswomen went to the forest, and if they aiid not show rauch skill in shooting the pheasants, ‘bares, partridges, rabbits, and quails, they had the courage to support the fatigue. By a decree of the Emperor, of the 23d inst., all the houses from the Passage Delorme to the Rue des Poulier, above the Louvre, willbe built in a regular architecture, with arcades and five stories. This im- provement will render this part of Paris one of the most ornamental of any capital of the world. The cholera is still raging at St. Petersburg. The exportation of goods from France is generally immense at this time, and despite the departure of the steamers Franklin and Humboldt, which had fall cargos on board, and the competition of the Cnnard and Collins steamers, the sailing packets are still tilled with merchandise. The ship Irene left Ha- vre for New York, on the 23d inst., with a cargo of 1,587 boxes, and 4,541 baskets champagne, and 435 emigrants, for the United States, Two American ships, the Olivia, from Charleston, in . Kelleran, from New Orleans, entered the port of Havre, during the gale of Sun last, after having encountered the most horrible ther in the Channel. The last of these two ships was damaged entering the dock of La Barre, and it is feared that it will he necessary to place her on the floating dock, to ropair her’ keel, which has been much damaged. The utmost activity now reigns in the theatres of Paris, and I have to mention several new plays worth being noticed. At the Grand Opera the new bailet of “ Orsa,” in which Cerito, the wonderful and inimitable danseuse, made her re-appearance, was performed last night, and met with universal applause, The magnificence of the scenery aud costumes, the interest of the plot, the diversity of dances, the novelty of many pas, everything, have succeeded to render this new ballet one of the prettiest things ever bronght on the stage since that of * Giselie.” Cerito won the most deserved applause, and showers of bouquets fei) around her. The Emperor was present in his box, and appeared to be much pleased with the enter- tainment. At the Comic Opera House the suecess of Spada,” the new production of Messrs. Scribe and new invention, and proved it suecesstul.

The second pliy is called ‘Les Abeilles et les Violettes,”’ and it is a sort of animated review of all the important events which have taken place in politics, fine arts and literature. The “bees” for the political part of the play, an the violets for the literary part. Among the pec arities of this farce, 1 will mention the show “Seven Uncle Toms,” represented by seven actors, who are claiming the priority, and the approbation of the public for their persons. It will be remem- beved that I have mentioned the publication of four translations of these “Uncle Toms,” and also the production of three dramas at the Gymnase, Ambigue theatres, on the same subject. This part of play was received with much pee By the N finstrels, such as ‘Lucy New “Carry me Back,” “Oh, Susannah,” “Old Neal, Dan Tucker,” ete., are to be introduced in the dramas; and I was lucky enough to have a collection of these songs, which T have lent to the three managers to have them adapted to the situations of the plot of the dramas. I hope this novelty will please, not only ans who will visit these theatres, but also ‘h people, who thus will be initiated to the melodies of America. Atthe Grand Cire: ational and Olympic. the ‘Life sena, the Beloved Child of Victory,” has been dramatized, and placed on the stage in the most bril- liant style. The scenery, the costumes, as well as the wis en scene, that is to say, battles, marches and counter-merches, are magnificent, and I am per- suaded that Massena will win more than one hundred battles on every one hundred successive nights, at the theatre of Bignon.

Jay. 17.—Jn the Matter of the Injunction against the Grantees of the Broadway Railroad.—The coun- sel engaged in this suit are the same as those who appeared before the Superior Court on Saturday, with the exeeption of Mr. Dillon, the Corporation counsel. Ex-Chief Justice Jones, on the part of the grant moved shat the case be now . and submitted that if the opposers of the project were right, and the nel of the Common Council illegal, they ought to know it. If the grant was within the powers of the Common Council, then his clients (the grantees) ought to be put in immediate possession, in order that they might commence their works. He therefore requested that the case should now be heard. The Judge said he would prefer having this matter 1 until the injunction before the Superior osed of. If the injunction was properly issued, this Court must take judicial notice oi. Mr. D. D. Field said the only question before the Superior Court was whether the Common Council were in contempt. Mr. Gerard remarked that his learned friend, (Mr. Field.) at the adjournment of the cage on Saturday, was in the middle-of a yery able argument on the merits of the whole case. He (Mr. G.) submitted that if this case was postponed until the four Judges of the Superior Conrt—from whom there was no ap- peal to the general term of that Court—had deter- mined the motion before them, tie argument here could be very much curtailed. ‘The Judge inquired if there was any oijeetion to the case laying over until Monday next? Mr. Field replied that there was. ‘The Judge—It has been publicly stated that Tam one of the parties interested in procuring this grant; that J am interested as a property holder. [tis with me a question of great delicacy whether | should . hear the case. I would prefer not. Counsel for plaintiffs and defendants expressed | themselves perfectly willing to argue the case before his Honor, and waived any objection on the ground that he had allnded to. The Judge ultimately set the matter down for Wednesday next, intimating that, in the meantime, he would consult with Judge Edwards, and, if he could hear the cause, it might, by enforeing the two hour rule, be got through on Thursday and Friday, and the counsel be at liberty to resume their argu- ment before the Superior Court % Satarday next. Mr. Field asked the Court to increase the security, which was now only $2,500, whilet the profits were said to be $300,000 per aunum, The Judge would not accede to the application, and the Court was adjourned until Wednesday next. United States Clreult Court, Before Hon.

That is not the point. The aceon is relative to the nuisance alleged to arise m the use of locomotives below Sixty-first strect. Mr, HArp—It is a nuisance in many respects, and that is the point to be considered. Mr. Linsey—We take that ground only. Alderman@Varp—Is the use of locomotives the only reason why you cannot let your houses? 'r. Linshy—It is, sir, as far we can discover. _ The CuaikMan--Mr. Strong, what difference of hese would it make in using horse power, instead of steam ? Mr. Srroxe—About ten minutes, T should think. The Cuainman—The great thing will be, not to oppress the Hudson River Railroad, and at the same time to relieve those persons living below 61st street. Mr. Srroxg—The company have built buildings under your charter. With heavy trains we are ) | obliged to go at a momentum, in order to overcome | the grade. Since the late storm, we have leasen¢d the speed to about ten miles an hour. Mr. Havp thought that if the loss of time did not exceed ten minutes, the company would not be very preatly inconvenienced by substituing horse power for steam. 76 Mississippi. 138 Maniteau .... uso 16h . 760 R07 386 379 133 16 93 323 * 107 161 Nodaway.... 6L 43 : i 7 143 92 32 39 57 (new Vv 322 245 230 803 793 913 1,102 260 231 39 124 104 74 341 397 299 776 607 508 483. @}509 626 } 5 21 148 | 16 4 14 378 417 569 149 148 263 250 285, 274 122 142 168 | 4,296 4,827 4,778 é 514 536: 438 | Schuyler . liz 204 192 | Scotland 216 131 240 | 6 M77 | . 35, 55 | 5 263 | 97 196 | Stone. .. coe 94 (new county.) | Sullivan iid 250 | 54 | ( 82 | new county.) | 351 dae 473 423 o1 245 72 181 32,671 40,077 | 32,671 Den. 7,406 | | | Dem. gain in four | years......... 985 | Total vote in 1848 tose 72,748, | Tota} vote in 1852..........4666 68,315 | Decrease in four years. sess cessevevevee ces 4423 *Butler county returned, but not counted, on ac- come illegality of election, having been held on | Monday. +No returnsfrom Donklin county—Clerk says the election was illegal. | tMontgomery county, 194 votes were cast for J.

Opposition to the Running of Locomotives Below Sisty-first Street, Yesterday, the committee of the Board of Alder- | men, appointed to hear evidence with regard to the | | nuisance which, it is alleged, arises from the ranning of locomotives on the Hudson River Railroad track below Sixty-first street, assembled in the library at the City Hal. The members of the committee con- sisted of Aldermen Tweed, (chairman,) Ward, Bard, | Haley and Denman; and the room was crowded with | a great many of the gentlemen who had petitioned the Common Council on the subject. Mr. Strong ap- peared on behalf of the railroad company. The Cnamman, having called the meeting to | order, requested the Clerk to read the petition fre i the owners of property on the Eleventh avenue, pr ing for the interference of the Common Council abate the nuisance which they allege arises from the use of locomotives below Sixty-first street. | The Clerk having read the petition, H Alderman Warp asked whether the railroad com- | pany had received a notification of the intended sit- | ting of the committee ? | The Cuarrman repfied that the company had been | 80 notified, and he understood Mr. Strong appeared | on their behalf. He then called on the petitioners to produce evidence in support of their allegations, for | the committee was there, prepared to bear all that | might be adduced. | Mr. S. M. Cerrm stepped forward, and de- | clared that his tenants, residing between Forty- third and. ‘I'wenty-third streets, had complained | to him of the noise and dangers that were occasioned by the use of the locomotives on the lines of the | Hudson River Railroad. He had himself heard the | whistling of the locomotives, and had been surprised at the rapid avd dangerous rate at which trains were | whirled by. He was of opinion that the rate at | which they travelled could not have been less than fifteen miles an hour. Such Ni were every | way calculated to endanger the lives of foot passen- prs, and even those persons that were driving ran it risks. The CHarrw an inquired if it was the object of the | petitioners to have the use of the locomotives done away with helow Sixty-first street ? Mr. Cornm—It is, sir; and bj thng the Eleventh avenue complain of being state ich is the nuisance arising from the whistling, the noise, and the danger, that I consider my property is depreciated at least twenty-five per cent, Alderman Harry—If the trains were run at a less speed, would there stil] be great objection to the use of locomotives ? Mr. Currien—T think many evils would still re- main; for there would still be noise, and other vehi- cles would be prevented from traversing the Eleventh avenue, so that the injuries to our property would be bnt little mitigated. Horses that are unused to the strange noise produced by locomotives have, in many instances, run away. The trains go more rapidly at one time than another, and dangers are heightened. ‘The whistling and the blowing off of the steam is a perfect nuisance. Alderman Wann--How is it with regard to the common way trains, as distinguished from the others 7 Mr. Connie—The only difference T notice is, that some go more rapidly than others. I should think the lowest rate is fifteen miles an hour, and from that to twenty miles an hour. Mr. L. H. Rick came forward, and said that he le living on ina constant lived in the Eleventh avenue, near Forty-third street. | The Cearnran—lo what manver are you aupoyed by the locomotive 7 | should be | speed is not quite twenty Mr. Srroxe said that the additional expense of transportation would be considerable, and that the Sion would be gen seriously inconvenienced. The Crarrman—There is another thing which ‘aken into consideration, and that is, whether the city of New York would not suffer br the loss of time which Mr. Strong shown would ensue, and thus induce many persons to come by the Boston railroad. Mr. Havp was of opinion that the nuisance onght. under any circumstances, to be abated. ‘The CivarrM an inquired if any new facts had ta be adduced ¢ _, Several gentlemen spoke at once, to the effect that if the locomotives were not removed, property would be rained. Mr. F. Daron declared that, last year, he had in- tended buying some peop in the Tenth avenue, and contemplated giving $1,000 for it; but having been told that he could get a cheaper Jot in the Eleventh avenue, in consequence of running of the locomotives having depreciated property there. he boughta lot for $750, and being under the expec- tation that the locomotives would be removed, he built a four story house and store, and had beew unable to let it since. It is one door from Forty- ty.seventh street. The Cuareaan tquired if the houses that had been built had ever been occupied ? Mr. Curnin—Yes, sir. I have had fifteen tenants, myeel!, who have moved away in consequence of tha locomotives. Mr. Darron said that he had ten children, and it he lived in the Eleventh avenue he could not make sure of their lives for a week. Mr. Laxsey declared, that in all this movement tRere was not the slightest spirit of opposition to the | railway company; they were only opposed to that portion of their arrangements regarding the running of locomotives below Sixty-first street; nor do we look portenianly to the imatter of our property though we feel it. We wisi to stand on the same ground as the citizens of other parts of New York who are not so nuisanced. This committee woul wish the evil diminished, if its members were c cmnstanced as we are. re under obligations te the railwad company for sing strangers into our city, but, at the same time, in our particular district, they breed a nuisance, and we wish to have it di- minished. To show the good feeling we have toward« the company, | will engage that all of us here present will be in favor of the Common Conncif granting them facilities, for which we will pay. | now moye that the committee do adjourn, in order t# hear further evidence on this subject, for which we will be prepared on another day. The Caarrman—If the committee decide ta meet on another day, it would be as well for you and your friends, as you seem not to be entirely prepared, ta come with affidayita, in order that we may bring: them as evidence before the Common Council. Alderman Haxy, addressing Mr. Strong, enquired. if heavy trains did not require to be moved at great speed in order to get them over the gradients ? Mr. Srrow We should probably have to briny them up to fifteen miles an hour, We despatch thir: teen trains each way every day, and the average ve miles an hour. Alderman Haty.—Mr. Strong, suppose it should please the Common Council to stop your locomotives, what expense would be entailed on the company ¢ Mr. Srnoxa.—The expense of moving our shops and depots, and to build new sbops, and the property which the company hold ia Thirty-first street would fal! in value. More land, too, yrould have to he bought in order to build new depots on. ff the committe» a adjourn, we shall have something further to ad- u1ce.
