FOURTEEN DAYS LATER-FROSII'EUROk
FRANCE.-Up to this date tranquilit y' continues.
The litest election returns show a 'majority in favor
of Prince Louis over all competitors of 27,000.
Prince Lonis;nroposes to raise Gen. Cavaignac to
the rank of Morelia! of France. A partial amnesty
;is still spoken
. of as likely to . be Presented to the
'chamber, either by Gen: Cavaignic or the ministry
of-Prince Louis; it is -understood that it would not
include the pelsoners.of _Vincennes. The intention
of promoting' the election of M .Dtifatire to the
.
Presidency of the Chamber, is evived, and will
probably be carried into effect.
M. Emile de Girandin asked the War Depart=
men% fur his father, Gen. Girandin and has been re
fused. He will-trobably be once more in opposition
to the government. He also asked the office of
Minister of Finance for himself, end as it was im
possible to giant this requsti there is already a cool
ness which in a day or two will probably teal to an
open rupture. Marshal Bugeaud ie to be comman
der-in-cbiet of the Army of the Alps but is to re
main for the Present in Paris. The, new ministry
was formed with the warm approbation of M. Titters,
Mole, lind Marshall Bligeaud,
iole, _ —Jge. ~
A well informed Paris paper says, so far as we
can judge from the incomplete returns that arrive
to us from the departments, the suffrages were divi
ded in the following proportionst—Louis Napoleon
66 per cent.; Cavai,gnac 21 per cent.; L2dru Rnilin
6 per cent.; :Respell 4 per cent.; Lamartime 3 per

The election fur President came off on Sunday
the 18th inst., according to previous announcement
and terminated on Monday evening,Lwitliout the
slightest disturbance. On Friday amid . Saturday,
some rioting took place in th e Place Manbuo; on'
the part o,f the Guarde Moblile, who are enthusias
tic supporters of Prince Louis, but it does nut seem
to have reached above a street row, although the
guards were' doubled. The contest lay, of cour;ei
between Gen. Cavaignac and Prince Napoleon, the
number of 'votes tendered fur Lamartine, Rollin and
Raspail being so comparatively insignificant that
they may be left out of the consideration of the re
sult. The election returns of the 12 arrondisse
ments of Paris shows the following result; Prince
Louis Napoleon 138,2_05; Gen. Cvaignac 72,75.1;,
Ledru Rollin 22,595: Raspail 1 1 ,005; Lin amine
3,308. It is im,hissihie to describe the effcc whicli
" the results of the eledtion which continue to rrive
hourly, have; produced.
In the Chamber, all parties are literally thunder
struck, the partisans of Bonaparte scarcely less so ,
than those of Cavaignue. A majority was expect
ed—indeed Counted on with certainty by all—but
none expected Such a universal acclaim as that 1
- which-has burst upon Paris from every quarter of
the country. All interest in the Presidential Elec
tion as a contest is over. It has ceased to be a
contest. I-
Paussts.Disicturriox OF TIIR NATIONAL As-
BEMIII.Y.—In our last number we published the
meeting of the Assambly at Brandeliburg till the
28th ult. On the 29th a meeting of the Assembly
_again took 'place, but only 151 members were Pres
,
ent. The Assembly therefore stood adjourned.—
.13imons's motion to catPalp the substitutes of the
absent Deputies caused a large accession of the
30th, on which day 198 members were present, ou I
13 represented themselves as absent wily from in
disposition or business; it was therefore deemed
more prudent to adjourn once more, and on the Ist
inst. the number of members present was greatly
increased. I
On that day 80 deputies, of the left centre who
had arrived from Berlin, entered the hall-in a - body,
and through tineof their body applied for an adjourn
ment until the Monday following, which was nega
tived by 145 to 113. The elcctiuu of a new Presi
dent, was called for, but the newly arrived deputies
refused to take any part in - it, and quitted the As
sembly en ninsse as they entered it.
TI is red . ticed
_the Chamber below the necessary
-.authorizing' the Minister to call up the substitute
of the deputies, who had quittel their sitting; one
third voted fur the resolution and only one deputy
against it, but no less than 82 declined voting at all.
TheAssemhty then adjourned to the 7th inst. In
the meantime however, the King, believing that the
practical working of the administration was impos
- Bible, resolved upon a bald step in advance.
Fin 1-
ing his c institueney stuWaoroly im,uatticable, ha

himse4. This charter is in fact the self same
broad-bottoMed Constitution orig,inally pronoun led
to the Assembly, with some arnendatinns, insignifi

of the proviso which annul the royal vote in the

both chambers.

THE GERMAN EMFlRE.—Mdications of the Elt
peroe of ditstria in favor of his Xephcto.—On the
27th ult. the President elf the Council
,presented tit
the Austria'n diet, assembled in Krensor, the pro
' gramme of the new cabinet. This programme coin
._ prised a very explicit profession of Said' in favor of
the constitutional monarchy. On the 21 inst. c , m-
Filterable sensation was created by a proclamation
issuedty the Emperor, in which he transfers all his
rights and'hotiors to'his nephew. Tide document
is one of t'te most startling and positive proofs of
the increasing influence of liberal principles on the
continent. The young Emperor is favorably spit
,,,en of, and , if he but fulfils the hopes held out in his
proclamation on.entering upon his new duties, the
people of Austria will have experienced a happy
deliverance in getting rid of Ferdinand.
It is said; howet er, that the sentiments expressed
in his proclamation will be looked upon with dis
trust, as the.first act of his Majesty was to continue
the murder's of Blunu and Messenliouser in office.

SILVER MINES OF CALIFORNIA.
We have heard a great deal of the gold in Cali
fornia;'hot we hear a story above silver there, which,
if true, is much more attractive than that of gold.—
For the benefit of those who are about to seek their'
fortunes there; we give it as it is. The St. Louis
Republican says: ".1. gentleman, who has spent
some years of his lire in Mexico, has sent us a com
munication, the substance of which is, that in 1840
he was in the city of Mexico. While there he
heard much of the existence of gold mines in that
country. In 1810, nfhile tir.Bustamente %vas look
ing over the ancient records preisertiel within the
palace, he found a memorial from Upper California
to the head of government. signed by One of the
missionaries in that region, in which Its gave a nar
rative Of the discovery..“l an i.nmense vein of native
silver. Great masses of this ore were found on the
surface Of,the earth, some (if which were equal iu
weight to twenty quintals, (20,000 pounds,) and
there were many imheatiOns of a permanent vein of
this ore.. In reply to this c.unnumication, the record
goes on to state that the government instructed the
misNionary to have the mine of silver covered op,
and that its existencashoold be kept a profound se
cret, umler penalty of death( The government gave
as a reason fur this injunction, that if the existence
of such immense mine:ill! wealtliin California shoo Id
become known to the People of sate city of Mexico,
such would be the tendency 'or emigration to Oh(
quarter that the safetyMf the city might be greatly
endangered." This is the path:italic() of the commn
'nication. The materials fur a discovery of the
whereabouts of this precious deposite of silver a
very scinty, our do the records supply any clew
them; but as Califurnia.is semi to be overrun with
adventurers, in search of sudden and easily-acquirkl
wealth, perhaps it would be well enough for them io

' No 13ACKING OUT.—The steamer Andrew Jack
son, Capt. Eckert, on her la.t trip from N. Orleans
rn Cincinnnti; entered the anal at Louisville, and
after passing through,the locks, met another large
boat in the canal, filling it from aide to side. The
captain on either boat insisted on the other backing
out; each refused; w orris ran high; each threatened
the other to put oil steam and rush through first.—
At this point the superintendent of the canal made
his appearance, and decided that the Andrew Jack
soi, should back down to the basin, an] safer the
miter to pass on into the locks, saying the other
boat had entered by permission, end that the Jack
son ought to have stopped at the basin. Capt. Eck
ert, after giving vent to a few bitter, bold curses
upon the superintendent, reluctantly prepared to
back the Jackson down to the t asin. One of his
deck hands, an Irishman, %he with flushed cheeks
,and heaving bosom, had witnessed the contest, here
exclaimed* "Capt. Eckert? this is your boat, you
can back her if yriu clniose," (and seizing a screw
driver, and pointing to the figure head, a likeness of
Gen.'Jackson, carved in hickory,) "but' this ould
feller never barks." Applying the instrument; be
began to unscrew the figure-head from the bowsprit,
with the declaration, "No man ever backed him liv
ing, and a bile I elin raise an arm, no man shall back
him dead." So saying, he unscrewed the figure,
took it upon Ida shoulder, carded it tip town, called

and resumed his-racenstomed place on the forecastle

Ltuetdc, November
I take thp.liberty of sending you a harity, sketch
of the lasi -bunis of Robert Attm, the , , champion
of Germiti . freedom, whit Was abut by command of
the Court Marnial at Thom, Millie 9th.
About two hods before the time appointed for ,
execution; a eimpiain was deputed to visit him, and
prepare him for death, of which he had received no
previous not ice. .-At first ire could not believe the
messenger 'id death, but the gloomy tidings :
,wtts
soon corroborate Iby a judge. He appeared quite
calm, and c 01, remarking to the chaplain.—
"you know, petioles that 1 atngt (:? . 'erman , catholic;,
I believe, therefore, you Willexempt trie frdm nod, -
cuter confesaion." The minister, being of the
ante persuasion, of course assented.
Blum begged a little timp to write to, his , wife,
Children and mother, at LeipsiC, which was granted.
After some moments of conversation with the Chap
lain; during which he was perfectly calm, he said.
di am exceedingly happy'to' haie made the ac
quaintance of so worthy and Christian 'a man; I
.wish to leave you a remembrance, but lave nothing
but a-heir brush left; will you accept that from me,
and.thereby afford nick_ my last -pleasure" lie was
now summoned to the place of execution. An offi
cer approatihed him .With handcuffs and, fetters, but
he said, “No,'l Will die w ,Germait' Believe me,
will nuke noefflut to eseape—spare me from your .
chaini." His request was granted and the proces
sion moved on, guarded by two thousand military.
On his way, he became affected to tears, and re
marked to those around him, "Robert Blum has in
deed wept, but not the delegate Blum; he dies with
I a free conscience. The husband, the father weeps.
' I was thinking of my dear wife and Children."
At 'lt A. M. they arrived at the place of execu
tion. Blum stepped out of the carriage and asked
who was to shoot him. On being told the ~. lager,"
he saidi'vq. am glad of that; the Jager aim well; en
the 26th of October they wounded me." As they
proceeded to
,bind his eves he said. " "No let me
took death in the face:" but upon being told that the
"Jager" could take better l dim if they did nut see
his eyes, he answered, "if that is the case. I willing
ly summit." He then repeated his last words—the
rallying word's of Germany's noble sons—"l tliefor
German freedom—for that I have fought.—any poun
try, forget me not." As is -the custom, provost ,
begged three times for mer Cy - 7-111 solemn unickery
—and nine soldiers stepped forward and fired. Two
balls struck him—one in the eye; the other on the
left side of the breast—death was, doubtless, instan
taneous.
On Monday the intelligence reached Leipsic. and
produced the greatest excitement. A mass meet
ing was held in the Odeon, and , many resolutions
were passed. amopg which the following;—'That '
all 'the friends- of Robert BluM, wear a badge of
mourning on their hats or breasts." Also to s l , bring
the corpse to Leipsic annul annually to celebrate his
death.' After the tneeting. the people marched in
great numbers to (he Austria': consul's re s idence,
pulled down theicoat of arms, which they carried
to the market place, stuck it up on n lamp most. that
all might see it, and then smashed it into ratans.
From the market place they, went to the Cafe
Francais, the proprietor of which is a known ene
my of Blum; here they demolished the windows,
and probably would have proceeded to greater vio
lence, had mot the Communal Guard arrived, upon
which the mob dispersed. Since then the city has
remained comparatively quiet. A subscribtion has
been started for the benefit of the widow and four
children: •

their habits, and live like a band of brothers.' The
trip from Havre was a remarkably short one, (30
days) and they took rations sufficient to last fur 60

they continued to eat the rdtions brought from
France during 'their trip to - Lhuisville.- They ex

SATURDAY MOANING. JANUARY 6;1849.,
1 8 4 8.
Another leaf in the Book Of Time hits; boon paged and
read by the whole human family. Turk, Hi ndoo, Euro.
peen and - Americarf: — I'o all, the ye:M.llB4B has been the
mother of mighty events. Upon her lap rebellion against
the "divine right of Kings." and the too long exorcised
power of the few over the many. has been nursed into
successful revolution. Revolutions, it has been often and
truly said, never go backwards, but like Time itself, con
tinueste roll on te the end of their mission: Thus' the
bright spark of LIBLUTT, kindlod by our • forefathers,
i'ears long gone by, on the rocky shores of New England,
as continued to blaze and warm the massesof all tntv
ind until even the Russian serf acknowledges its grateful
glow; and•all Europe Is Convulsed with its heat.:_ When
18-18 entered upon its cycle, the lastof the Bourbons sat
upon the throne of France, and fancied. no power on
earth strong enough to hurl him from power. ,In imag
ination ho no doubt 'pictiired to himself a long and quiet
reign. and when at last he should -bo gathered to that
common receptacle of Kings and beggars, the grave, his
-power would descend to one of his decendants. But how
vain are all kingly calculationti in this ado of reform and
progress. The masses arose in. their might and_ spoke,
and the individual that laid down at night a King, was,
ore the setting of - another sun, a fugitive and a wanderer,
compelled to solicit eveti charity to enable hint 'to reach a
foreign land. The glittering bayonets of n hired soldiery,
and'tho massive fortifications upon which he hail mis
spent the rpublic'treasure, could not save him,' for the
people arose in their might and Majesty, and their &at
was ono from which neither the bayonet nor•tho sword
could successfully appeal. France, that was governed
by a monarch when 1818 was in its infancy. ere it reach
ed manhood's prime baleanat a Republic. :'
Not in }'ranee alone, however, has tho fires of revo
lution burnt brightly. In Germany; Austria, Hungary,
Ireland nud Rome, the flint has been struck which must
ultimately kindle a fire that will con mme the'last vestage
of Despotism. What though Mitchel ho • a prisoner in
thi3 Hulks of Bermuda, and O'Brien condemned to be
"hung, drawn and quartered," think you Ireland will not
yet be free? What though hundreds -of her patriotic
song have been driyen into exile by English oppression,
and her petite to starvation by chnrch tithes, exerted in
the name of religion. think you there is not a fearful day
of .reckoning laid up for the oppressor, the day and hour
of which he kutiweth not! What though theipatriots of
Vienna were overpowered by numbers, and
I ntl the point
of the bayonet compelled to surrender, think) you blood
enough was filted i by the commcrer to quelled' the ( fire of
freedom that has burned so brightly throughout the year
1818! No! we answer, in the language of th i e Pennsyl
- the blood spilt by Power to appease ,its vengeuco
is ever so much) oil poured upon the flames' Of freedom,
and only hnstenli and aggravates the fa(o of the tyrant.—
Men are only temporally appalled by the axe, and regal
cruelty has often, in the very hour of its triumph and* its
proscriptions, made new leaders for the people by its cru
elty to their old ones. Who believes that the bloody scenes
of. Vienna have blotted out the remembrance of the popu
lar sufferings, or extinguished affection for popular rights?
Who believes that the assassination of the patriot Blum,
if it has shocked the'public heart, has also paralized it?
Who behoves that if Berlin is overawed by sixty thousand
soldiery—if- her Senate is dragooned and threatened--
that, therefore, the people are asleep or afraid? The ru
lers of Germany—her bloody soldiers—her besotted
Kings—her dissolute ministers—have yet to learn the
lesion that was taught Lmis Philippe—that the united
masses of any country, intent upon Freedom, cannot be
overthrown, or even retarded, in this age, by bristling
Cannon, frowning bat tents or long lines of hired
troops. Popo Pius, of Rome, understood Human nature
and the spirit of the age better than the despots ofGer
many and Austria. The first demand of the people for
qtyr rights was listened to with respect. and granted
course left to retain oven tho semblance of power; and
when the masses haVe Mice drank of the pierian spring,
and discoveied that power to govern ought to be confer
red by them alone, they dem:indict more. and the minister
that refused theni, and treated their demands with con
tempt, soon fell beforo their onward march and just
wrath. Even the bristling bayonets of the eitntitra Swiss
guard, could not and would not save him, for they sari
the popular current and fraternzied with the people. The
Pope deserves well of Ida country, not only for having
"been prompt to submit to the first wishes of his fellow
citizens—not only for having anticipated some of their
wants—but because he'rnade no.bloody resistance to their
last demands. Ile has never given a better evidential of
his ability to goVern an intelligent Stnte than by this
timeous and peaceful submission. , Such are some of the
mighty events which has Perminently marked the year
1848 in tho old world. The year has passed away to.
make - room for anothetybut the deeds it. haS given birth
to, will live forever!
While Europe hes beet convulsed by these volcanic
eruptions of popular (iglus, events not less import, though
bloodless, have marked the year 18-1 S in this, our own fa
vored land. A foreign war, commenced in dcifeueo of
our just rights and national honor, and prosecuted with
the most signal success in spite of opponents at l+nte and
abroad, has been brought to a just and honorable termi
nation and peace once more reposes beneath th . wings
of our national eagle. A vast accession of terri ory ac
quired from onr vanquished foe, and which the o ponents
of the Democratic and progressive Spirit of the rag , sneer- i
ingly told us , was a baron waste. not worth a dol ar, bids
fair, in mineral wealth, to rival the far fated ines of
the Indies. Internal trade and foreign comma e have
-both Combined to prove the justice or the policy of the
present Administration; and even the wing party which.
6on the time the memory of man rutted' not be k to the
contrary, has steadily opposed - and comlemned every
measure proposed and carried out by tho democratic par
ty, lent itself to vindicate the war through the instru
mentality of which our vast and valuable possessions on .
the Pacific' were acquired. Gen. Taylor, a inlan un
known to fame previous to breaking out of thepexican
war, and`whose only merit or claim to the su .iiges of
the people, was acquired in its prosecution, lies been
elected President by the votes of thosed who, but a few
months previous, had pronounced it "unjust" "Unholy"
"God abhored," and even went gofer a.. 4 .ziwish t
