Letter from Caitaln Iliiriaon, Ktc. tt))ftUl Oirrespotidincr of Tlie firming Ti li praph. l'AKin, March 15. AN CKflltATEPUL 0UK8T. TLo monotony of the present tlulness has teen somewhat relieved those last few days in Parte by the prosecution of the editor of La Liberie, the well-known aud famous writer, M. Emite de Girardin, for attacking the empire, and even the Emperor himself. It is reported that the Emperor himself felt very jnnch hurt and even indignant at the article published by M. do Girardinj the moro bo as the editor of La IAbtrlt was a favored guest at the last festivities of Compeigno, and nothing led to the belief that a fuoling so hostile ex isted as that which ho has just given expres sion to. The article in question, which has rnado so much fuss in Paris and all over France, might have been published with impu nity had our press been unshackled. Mons. de Girardin, in thva inuch-talked-of article, in alluding to the remarks made by lions. Kouher, in his speech "that the Em peror had conducted the country gradually and year by year to better destinies" asked, with an impudence which took aback the Minister, at what price the country had teen so conducted ? With regard to foreign policy, three departments have been added to France since the Emperor has been on the throne the Maritime Alps, Savoy, aud Upper Savoy, with a total population of nearly a mil lion of inhabitants. Mons. de Girardin tells us that these acquisitions were made at the cost of a loan of 5H(,(0t.i,000 francs, contracted at COf. 50c; at the cost of the blood of French men shed to defend the Italians against the Austrians; also at the cost of the unification of Italy and Germany; and, finally, at the cost f the reorganization of the French army, involving the obligation on all able-bodied Frenchmen to military service 1U0,000 at least called out every year instead of an annual contingent of 100,000 men. Mons. do Girardin runs the Government Lard in his article. He gives it no quarter. He asks, too, what great iulluence has France gained in or out of Europe by the unfortu nate Mexican expedition, in which French money and French blood have been most wan tonly squandered,? What has the present Gov ernment done to help the Poles ? What is France doing to counterbalance the influence of Russia in the East ? Mons. de Girardin then goes on to examine as to the state of things at home, in order to show that the statements of the Minister of Foreign Affairs are very far from being correct, when he says that France lias gained considerably under the Second Empire. He says, as regards liberty, France is far below Germany, England, Belgium, Hol land, Italy, Portugal, and Switzerland. Throughout the whole of Europe there i3 no country below France but Spain. All the above-mentioned unpleasant truths have made the Minister wince not a little, aud having lost his temper, he had the saucy editor of La Libcrtt prosecuted. The trial came off yesterday, and the verdict of the jury was that Mons. de Girardin should pay a fine of five thousand francs. We hear it was sus pected for a moment that the article was sug gested, if not written by "our dearcousin," Prince Napoleon; but the Trince has positively denied all knowledge of it uutil he read it in the paper. yoltaike's statue. Monsieur Houdin, the editor of the Su ch, an opposition paper, is progressing with his subscription in favor of a statue to be erected in Paris in memory of Voltaire. Among those Who have sent in their adhesion, and fifty centimes, is Garibaldi. The adhesion is notified in the following short letter: Capkera, February 19. A monument to Vol talra in Fruneo signifies the return of this noble country to its pobt of advanced guard of lmmuu rroKret,s In the paternity of peoples. Itisu, good omen for the whole world, of wtiieli the immense mau was citizen, and a terrible Hhock to thecoalition of despotism and lying. Accept . my obulus aud all my gratitude. Gahiuallh. TUB IiED, WHITE, AND BLUE. The inhabitants of Havre had been await ng the arrival of the Red, White, and Blue, the departure of which from Loudon to Paris had the day previously been announced. After a very boisterous passage, the intrepid little yacht presented itself at the mouth of the Seine, but it was unable to sail up the river on account of the high winds. It was, therefore, obliged to take refuge in the river of Caen. Thus the hope of the inhabitants of Havre, who have been on the pier day after day on the lookout for the Americau boat, have been dashed to the grouud. Numerous parties have gone from Havre to Caen in order to have a look at the smallest three-master which certainly exists in the world. The Red, White, and Blue left Lon don on the 1st of March, and put out to sea on the 2d, and entered Omsterham on the 4th, from whence it was towed to Caen by the fcteauier Souvenir. Captain Hudson has sent the following letter to one of his friends at Havre: On Board thk Yacht Hkd. White, and Uluk, Cakn, March 6 Dear Friend: I have tlie pleasure to inform you that I have arrived ttafely here this morning at 0 o'clock. I, lust night, cuught Bight of tliu Cape. Hove lights, lut the wind wuh ho high Ui:it there was not tiie slightest possibility of getting; near uiioru. I therefore determined to follow a ship into the liarbor of Caen. (Should tli wind not be favor able on Wednesday next, 1 shall cause the lied, White, aud Mlue to be towed out to sea. aud from there I shall try to eome Into your port with the tide, either In the daytirneor at night, Jut as the wind may prove favorable. Youn truly, W. IIudsoh. The daring shown by Captain Hudson has stimulated our Parisian fresh-water sailors. A sloop of twenty-four tons, eleven metres long, and having only four men on hoard, in cluding the captain, sailed ou the 2d from Havre, with a complete cargo. It is believed that its destination is St. Thomas. The very Stormy weather which it experienced obliged it to put into Cherbourg, in order to have the damages it received during the storm repaired. This little vessel, which is called the Sylph, was built in Paris. It is the smallest ship, after the Red, White, and Blue, which has at tempted to cross the Atlantic. roxsAnn'8 "oalileo."
