Devienne on the Senatus Consultum The Influ ence it will Exert in the Government of the Empire. M. Dcvlenno rend Ills report on the senatus consultum in the Senate, August 25. Tlio fol lowing are the concluding passages: To sum up, although on many questions various opinions have been expressed and main tained by several members, your committee ananiinously proposes that you should join In the Emperor's initiative. Your committee awaits with eonlidenee the loyal execution oC these new resolutions, as well at the other mea sures announced by government in the expose ties motifs. This seuatua consultum will have an inevitable influence upon the destinies of the country. It is an act which will make Its mark in the history of the nation. The initia tive of laws, the right of amendment, of inter pretation, and of proposing ordres da jour motifs now admitted to belong to the elective chamber, the publicity of your debates, the Intervention of the law and of the Senatus Consulta, In matters of high In terest, are very considerable changes. ' Such measures should disarm the real or averted mis trust ot those who pretend that the affairs of the country urc not subjected to sulHeient control. In such a situation, and when there exists more genuine freedom of speech and freedom of the press, if violence should Increase instead of diminishing, good citizens will doubtless under stand that, just as in a given ease they should aid the police against disturbances in the street, it is their duty to rise and be united against State rebels. However this may be, the legisla tion of 1852, so far as it was restrietivc, is at an end; and now it is only justice to make an inven tory of all that it has done for the country. After sixteen years' tranquillity it leaves French ter ritory aggrandized, its personal property widely distributed, augmented by tweuty milliards; trade tripled; gratuitous primary instruction more than doublet!; professional instruction estab lished; upwards of six thousand new beueflt societies; many funds for relief of old age, for insurance, and" co-operative society banks; all the telegraphs, railways, every element of pros perity; establishments of public charity of ever3' kind considerably augmented; the most absolute liberty of conscience; new churches starting up in all directions; the sanitary state of our towns improved; our navy transformed; peace and respect for France maintained by 1.400,000 sol diers ready to inarch to the frontiers; and, lastly, the country conducted from a dictator ship" to the most ample constitutional liberty. The generation of 1852 maysay to that of li!t: This is what I have done. You may do better still if you consolidate the work which I have undertaken; if this people, whom it is desired to intoxicate with i;s new-Hedged sovereignty, will understand that tribunes are self-interested cour tiers, whose llattcry deceives nations as well as kings, that its true friends speak the stern lan guage of truth a language which, whether popu lar or not, power must listen to under the penalty of decay and downfall. The true characteristic of a irrent. and free people is to bo on its guard against chimerical promises, and dreams of im possible equality. Self-confidence and respect lor the law, patient hope, aud calm reliance on right are the true qualities of the citizen, and constitute at once his personal dignity and the greatness of his country. If, thanks to yonr efforts for the last sixteen years, France has re covered that prudeut and fruitful liberty towards which the elect of the nation has led her through many rocks and quicksands if you will hold . the candle of political life which wo hand over to vou in such a way as that it may give light, and not be the means of a conflagration, theu the ancients of the ngp will be happy to say, with patriotic joy you have done better than we. Your committee proposes the adoption of the senatus consultum ia the following terms: Article 1. The Emperor aud the Corps Legis latif have the initiative of laws. Article 2. Ministers are dependent only on the Emperor. They delilicrato in counsel uuder his presidency. They are responsible. They can onlv be impeached by the Senate. A'rticle !1. Ministers may be members of the Senate or of the Corps Legislatif. They have a right to sit in cither assembly, and to speak whenever they i sk lor a hearing. Article 4. The sittings of the Senate ore public. On the demand of live members the house may sit in secret committee. The Senate makes its own internal regulations. Article 5. The Senate may, while suggesting the amendments of which it thinks a hill sus ceptible, send It back to the Corps Legislatif for reconsideration. Jt may in any case oppose the passing of a bill. No bill the passlug of which is opposed by the Senate cau bo presented to the Corps Legislatif a second time the same session. Article fi. The Corps Legislatif makes its own internal regulations. At the opening of every session It appoints Its President, Vice-Presidents, and secretaries. It elects Its questors. Article 7. Any member of the Senate or Corps Legislatif has a right to address interpellations to the government. Ordres da jour motifs may be adopted. The reference of the ordres da jour motif to the bureaux is of right whenever demanded by government. The bureaux appoint a committee, upon whose summary report the Corps Legislatif decides. Article 8. No amendment can bo discussed until communicated to government and sent for examination to the committee on the bill. Article St. The budget of expenses is presented to the Corps Legislatif by chapters and articles. The budk-etof even- ministry is voted by chapters. conformably to the schedule annexed to the pre sent senatus consultum. Article 10. In future modifications of the cus toms a postal tariff made by international trea ties w ill not be obligatory until sanctioned by a law. Article 11. The rclementarv relations be tween the Senate and Corps Legislatif, and with the Emperor's Government, will be settled by Imperial decree. The constitutional relations between the powers are regulated by a Seuatus Consultum. Article 12. All provisions contrary to the pre sent Senatus Consultum are repealed, ana par ticularly articles 8 and 13, the second paragraph of article 24, articles 2(5 and 40. the fifth para graph of article 42, the second paragraph of article 43, article 44 of the Constitution, articles 3 aud 5 of the Senatus Concultum of 15th De cember, 1852, aud article 1 of the Seuatus Con sultum of December 31, 1601. It w ill be seen that the changes made by the committee of the Senate iu the original proposi tion, after all its long and painful Incubation, nrj slight even verbally, and of infinitely small importance substantially. The only alterations worth mentioning are in articles 5 and 11. The Senate claims to have an absolute veto upou a bill without giving reasons.

THE SABIXE. Wan tlirre n Mntlnvon Hoardf Krportcd Ar tlvnl nl Three Wltnennea to the Outbreak In lloMun The V rune I Ordered Home. The N. Y. Sun this morning prints the follow ing special telegram and nil appended explana tion relative to the reported Sabluo mutiny. We give it for what it is worth: Washington, Sept. 8. The cable telegrams which reported the discovery of a mutiny on the Sabine at Cherbourg were true. The sutetueut that seven of the mutineers were hanged is un true. The frigate fcnbinelias been ordered home on account of this mutinous conspiracy among her crew. Three witnesses, sent by nnothcr vessel to avoid being tampered with, have arrived in hoston. These facts have leaked out at the Navy Department to-day. The Sabine was on a fancy cruise with the graduating class of midshipmen, some sixty odd In number. Her commander is Captain John G. Walker, a nephew of Senator .James W. Grimes, or Iowa. Secretary llorio and Admiral l'orter sent her out to please Senator Griuies, though the midshipmen and men were very much wanted in the West India squadron, where vessels are without sulllclcnt crews. None but sailors were engaged in the con -spiracy. The trial is to take place at the Brooklyn Navy Yard alter the arrival of the Sabine." The Cnlile Report of the Mutiny. The above despatch lrom the Sun's Washing ton correspondence Is a partial eoiroboratiou of an Associated Press despatch which was sent lrom l'aris on Monday, Aug. 211. That despatch asserted that a desperate con spiracy had been discovered on the Sabine, then lying in the port of Cherbourg. It stated that some of the crew, to revenge themselves on the ollicers, attempted to set lire to the powder magazine, and to blow up the ship. It also averred that the conspirators had proceeded so far in their designs as to light a fuse commu nicating with the magazine. The plot was frus trated by a cabin boy, who discovered tho burn ing fuse and put it out. An investigation was made, and the mutineers were arrested. Tho despatch further said that twenty-two sailors were implicated in the plot, and they were placed in irons. As printed in the Sun, tho despatch concluded thus: "Seven have been condemned to death, and lo be hanged at tho yardarm." The New York papers, receiving tho same despatch, printed it: ' Seven meu have been condemned to death, and hawjed at the yardarm." On Tuesday. August 30, the Navy Department at Washington telegraphed that no ollicial in formation in reference to the mutiny and exe cution had been received The Sun promptly telegraphed to Paris, through the Associated Press, for further information, but received no reply on that day. It was not until Wednesday. August 31, that the report was denied. On "'ihursday a Paris despatch was printed in all the papers,, contra dicting the whole story, in the following hazy despatch: Pakis, Aug. 31. A note from tlie American Lega tion contradicts the report which prevailed here on Sunday, that a dangerous conspiracy had been dis covered on board the frigate Sabine, and pronounces the story utterly without foundation. We are not informed concerning to the author of this note from the American Legation. It was certainly not Minister Washburne, for ho was in Germany. The despatch of August 2'.) asserted positively that a desperate conspiracy had been discovered, while tho telegram of the 3lst speaks of it as a report wtiicii prevailed in Paris on Sunday. Wo judge that the malu points of the first despatch were true. Tho despatch was printed wrong in every journal but the Sun, wnieii aaserteu tnai tuo men were "to be hanged," aud not "were hanged." The Inst despatch, says that tuo crew wisuca to rcveugo themselves upon tho ollicers. What the ollicers did to provoke this terrible revenge is unknown. As tho vessel was on a pleasure excursion, it is possible that the cabins and other portions of the ship had been enlarged aud reiitted to give the ollicers plenty of room for enjovment, as was tho case on the I alla- poosa, the men being crowded to the wall for iccommodations. Tho records of tha navy show that twenty- seven years have elapsed since a mutiny of auy magnitude toou place on ooara a united Biaies vessel. In 1842 the United States brhr Somers, Commander Mackeuzle. sailed from New York with despatches for the coast of Alrica. On tho voyage home, tind when near St. Thomas, it was discovered that Midship man Spencer, a son of the then Secretary of War, with about twenty of the seamen, had formed a plan to seize tno vessel ana convert her into a pirate. Several arrests were made, un investigation was held, and tho seamen and the midshipman were executed. Tho ease caused a profound excitement at home, and a Court of Inquiry was organized, tho commander was tried and his actiou justified. An attempt was subsequently made to indict him for mur der, but the Judge charged tho jury that it was not competent for a civil tribunal to take up a case pending before a Naval Court. WILMINGTON. A Democratic Oode Knocked In the lleud 'I'lie JteNult of the City Kleeiiou. The Wilmington Commercial of last evening says: "The election of city ofllccrs passed off yes terday very quietly, but though thero was but little excitement the result shows that a much larger vote was Polled than was ever polled before at a city election. The total number of votes cast for Mayor readied 3770, or deducting the Hill votes of the new Ninth ward, tftiui, against 2780 in 1808. This great increase is doubtless owiug to the new law which gives any one qualified to vote at State elec tions the right to vote at city elections. As compared with the vote at the general election in 1808, in which the qualifications of voters was the same as in that of yesterday, the vote is a light one, for then, w ithout the new Ninth ward, there were 4173 votes cast iu the old five wards. The result yesterday proves Wilmington true to her ld and well earned record as tho only un flinchingly loyal city in auy of the former slave States, as'it results In the election of the Hepub-lic-in majority in the City Council, and ''the Mayor and Council of Wilmington" arc the city's representatives in the eyes ol the law.

From special report sent from Avondale yes teiday we extract the followinir: Within the I'll. About 8 o'clock this morning the first door of the puhKWuy was broken iu ami sixty bodies were found there. Their situation was awlul; fathers lay still' iu death with arms about their sons. Some were kneeling, us though in prayer: strong men were bund In iinnd with their fellows. The pickaxes and shovels, which they had used In making an eniUank nient to prevent, the entrance of foul atr, lay one side. It seemed, then, that they hud lied a few steps, when in u u agony they fell In on utiot tier's arms, sullocuted by the deadly damp. In another chamber every mini was without a shirt. Tbey had stiipped themselves of clothes to use them lu tilling up devices aud crannies. One man hud pushed a part of his garment int.oun aperture, whea a gust of the gas rushed through and strangled hlcn t ) death. Wagon loads of coillus line the ro.nl, and litters tilled with sheeted dead pass along the line every lew mliiut 8 As they are brought out of the tuuiiet an Inquest is held, ine dead are exposed for re;og. union, aud wheu one is identified, tie Justice culls out his name and home ; his friends lake tno budy and convey It to their house. Already the dozen mules have caused an InsuuVr able stench, having swollen and bursted. The men who go down to bring up the corpses have to pass these carcases In order to get at the dead; and the stench, together with the gas, which has not yet been pumped out, makes it diillcuir, to hrlnir them up. The solemnity of the placets not alone that which impresses the spectator. The weeping women and londly-erylng children strike the spiciator with sadness; hut the active res cuers, ami the l'roisiou Committee, ami the police mid hucksters, and the unemotional miners, inuke it painfully obvious that the present is a time for busi ness, and not for mourning alone. Forty-five have already been taken up. One of them showed signs of life, lie was bleeding ami tiK vcd. iie was found Willi his face lu the water, lying Hut on the bottom of the mine. Kllorts are being made to resuscitate him uow. The Prone nt Nlsht. At dark the scene was a strange one. For many milcB up mid down this beautiful valley the glare of a thousand lights were seen. Tlie vast quantities of burning coal ut the breaker were covered witn sheets of colored Hume, (ircat brawny men worked silently and constantly, and often in tears. At Inter vals a mother's wuil came iu o i the night air, as it did years ago when death once reigned iu the val ley of the Wyoming. Long lines of men guarded the hoisting rope on either side, while those at the n " Ms attended to the duties assigned them. The oluuteers were lowered by means ol a machine worked by horse power. The hoiating apparatus is located on the elevated plane ut the upper side of 1 he breaker, and on the plane below Is the mouth of the shaft. Here are Hues of miners extending back some distance. When a descent Is to bo mudu, word is given to the men above, and the brakes are loos ened. The order "Silence !" Is given, and a thousand men stand motionless. At last the rope slackens. and then there Is another pause, while the foreman looks at his watch. One, two, three minutes are passed, and si 111 the silence con tinues. Nine minutes 1 "I'pl up! boys!" and away goes the horse with a man at his heels on the run. The rope runs slow, and the call for more speed Is heard again and again. At last heads appear. "All right!" Is heard, a rush Is made, aud In a minute the new comers full fainting Into the arms of their comrades. The prostrate forms are borne away to the open air, where they are I mined and nibbed until life is restored. It is a sick ening sight, but the brave men who have spent their life beneath the ground litter uot a word of com plaint, l tie news oi "things oeiow" is given in a whisper, sent In shouts to the men a-iove. All day and all night weary hours passed by, but MIU wuiivuia uiii not niui a uiumciu., 1 uu nee tt glim creature sitting on a log. His eyes are scarcely visible, and his long, coarse boots, and his canvas suit, close buttoned, made him look as taoiigh he hud been on a spree for a week, lie is un English miner, and he Is one of the most experienced in tho State. He has come many mill's to rescue his brothers, and well does he do his work.

The mines, of course, were all stopped, and every miner seemed as if he felt It his especial duty to wli l ess the sad and fearful culamity that befell'su largo u number of his class.

From the J.iverjmrd Courier. A serious calamity has befallen the Devon shire village of Chawlclgh, which has been almost destroyed by Ure. Chawlclgh Is in the hundred of North Tawton, about two miles to the southeast of Chulmleigh. It is situated on tho river Dart, und is not far from tho Etrgesford station of the North Devon Railway. Tho prin cipal land-owners In the neighborhood are Lord Portsmouth and Sir George Stucklcy, Baronet, tho Earl being lord of the manor, and the population numbers about 15(1, the population of the entire parish being about 800. The houses were nearly all thatched, and to this fact is due tho extent of the Are, tho excessive heat of tlie buu's rays durintr the past week having rendered tlie roofs very combustible. Tho lire broke out on Thursday, August and thero being no water obtainable, tho flames spread rapidly till the greater part of tho dwellings wero destroyed and nearly tho whole of tho villagers left house less. Tho fire was caused through some chil dren playing with matches In one of tho houses. When tho flames broke ont the Inhabitants of tlie village became panic-stricken, and as a result lost nearly all their property. Thero Is an ancient church dedicated to St. James In tho village, and as our correspondent makes no mention of It, It is to bo hoped it escaped destruction. Tlie Inde pendents and Bible Christians have also places of worship iu the parish, and they hive also probably escaped. Tho Columbia (S. C.) I'huinix further ex plains that Us "idea" ia that the principles of the Democratic party, rightly understood, how ever old, are as sound as ever; but, to make tho party Instinct with life and energy, it must ap ply those principles to tho living, practical questions ot the hour, "not clinging to old issues or bugging dead idols."
