The military were brought out; cleared the streets of the crowd, and captured the most active i leaders. 1 Elhertield, the Manchester of Prussia, has petis tioned'in the same way as Cologne; and on thesith, 1 Dusseldorf followed the example, adding the demand 1 of " a law for the working classes."

At Sarrelouis and Sarrebruck, fortified towns in the extreme Southern angle of the Prussian territory, the sympathy with the Republican changes in France his been lively and overt. All Frenchmen have been ordered to leave the former town; and the garrison of the latter have withdrawn torelose quar• tees, and felled the trees on the glacis of their defen sive works. At Mayence, in Hesse Darmstadt, the news of the French Revolution arrived in theLmidst of the mas querading of the Carnival, and found all the city worthies at the Narren-verein or Fool's Assembly. In an instant the conical caps and bells were thrown aside, and all present engaged in solemn delibera tion. The assembly of fun was transformed into one for the despatch of public business; and it was decided that a deputation of two hundred citizens should start for Darmstadt, with a petition for " Lib iarty of the press, a civil guard, a diminution of the army, and a German Parliament." The deputation arrived at Darmstadt, on the 2d. They found the people of that place, and also a deputation from Offenbach, preparing to present similar demand. - . The States are sitting, and such presentations are illegal; nevertheless it was determined by all to persevere. At Carlsruhe, in B ides, on the 29th of February, deputations fri m every town in the dutchy waited on the Grand Duke, and demanded liberty the press, a burger guard, trial by jury ; also that Ba den shall be no longer subject to the Germanic Diet, and that private soldiers shall be eligible to the 1 highest army ranks. The Grand Duke succumbed, and called M. Welcker, the leader of the constitu tional Opposition, to his counsels. On the Ild oast , the Minister of the Interior proclaimed there suc cessions-- In the Course of the next week the censorship of the press will cease. 2 A burgher guard will be forthwith enlisted. 3. A project of law respecting the institution of trial by jury will be laid before the Assembly without delay." The following notice has also been given by M.

At a Cabi net Council, held on the 25th of February, it was resolved to Order all the Parisian military to prepare liar marching at ten day's notice. On the Gth, the King desert the sittings of the State Committees. In his speech on the occasion he said— " It is with pleasure I avail myself of this oppor tunity to state, that I will grant to the assembled States, The rights conferred by the low of the 3d of February on the assembled Committees of the States, to meet periodically al fixed times; and flaill confirm the privileges of the Committees in a corresponding manner Sir The itifitors of the Gazette hope thativ . 43 ivilf ,:! ..

The New Minister from France We are much pleased to learn, the citizen who is said to liai;e been appointed by the Provisional Gov ernment of France, to be Minister to the United States, is M. TRACY. lle is the 'son of the distin guished Destutt Traej , a work from whose hands (a commentary upon Montesquieu) was translated nearly forty years ago by Mr. Jefferson, after his retirement from public life, and . in the translated form was published in the city of Philadelphia: The, son, who conies out as Minister to this coun try;Wove are glad to learn, a gentleman of ehamc ter as well as ialent, such as entitle him, aside front the - important object of his mission, to a kind and cordial reception.

The resignation of Prince Metternich is certain, and the circumstances under which it took place are ex traordinary. • The Prince had declared himself de cidedly favorable to concessions in Lombardy, as Ns , ell as in Bohemia and Hungary. With regard to Lombardy he advised prcmpt and ample concession. His views met no support, and at the last council at which he assisted, failing to make an impresaion, he signified that he had arrived at too advanced a period of life to grapple with the difficulties which he fore saw would arise from an obstinate persistance in coercive policy. He did not, however, resign form ally at the moment. The same evening the Prince went to the theatre. During the performance-some insignificant expression, to the effect- of "We must get rid of these ministers," was caught up byQthe house, and repeated, all eyes being directed to the venerable statesman, who soon after rose much af fected, and at once gave effect to his previously ex pressed intention. BAVARIA.—The Augsburg]] Gazette of the -1111 in stant contains the followingonder date Munich 411 i: "Last evening, Prince Wallerstein repaired to the great hall of the Hotel de Ville, and announced to the armed citizens that the King had resolved to dis miss the Chamber of Deputies, and convoke a new assembly for the Slat of May." This concession, though at first well received, was afterwards rejected. On the 4th instant a most seri ous movement took pinee. The people demanded the immediate "convocation of the Chambers, tile liberty of the pieta, that judicial trials should be publie, that afti ntentOral reform should be granted, and that the armi,shoold take an oath to observe the constitution.

Hav ing arrived at the marketplace the crowd met the troops; but neither the Cuirassiers nor the troops of the line would aarge when commanded to do so.-- r Cries of "The RepubliC forever" were raised. At length the King yielded to all the demands of the peo ple. Prince Charles, the King's brother, rode up to the crowd, and asserted them, on his word of honor, that the King had consewed - to convoke the Chain-. berm for the 16th of the present month, and that he. granted all that the people desired. L AM A ItTINE Lamartine is described an having "a brow where genius sits enthroned, and a lip quivering with en thusiasm." Though nearly sixty years of age, his locks are but thinly sprinkled with grey. •His fea tures still retain a rare beauty of expression, and his form a princely, elegance. As a poet possessing a fervor of soul, a richness of fancy and a splendor of versification, which few have surpassed, as a prose writer, full or nerve, grandeur and beauty, as an or ator brilliant though often incoherent, as a legislator fearless, independent and scorning the name of par tizan, and as a man religious and disinterested, his principles all pure, his passions all noble, his in stincts all elevated, what wonder is it that la . belle France has nut a son upon whom she looks with fonder pridel He seldom takes part in the petty questions en gendered in party strife, but when great principles are involved, when the cause of God or humanity is concerned, he never sits silent. In the recent de bates on Italy, no voice rang clearer or more indig nantly against the cold calculating policy of the ad ministration than Lamartines. All the warm im pulses and quick sensibilities of his nature were thoroughly aroused and though perhaps speeches were made that would tally more exactly with •the rhetorical rules of the schoolmen, none were more thrilling, none pierced their way more electrically to the very centre of the soul. He has heen a depu ty fifteen years, and has always spurned party tram mels." air. Levin In Trouble. The Washington correspondent of the N. York Herald says: "A committee is about to be moved in the House, to take into consideration what meas ures ere necessary , to vindicate the dignity of the body, which has been, in the opinion of most mein hers. compromised by Mr. Levin, the member from the fist district of Pennsylvania, in his two speech es on the mission to the Papal States. The indig nity offered to the House consists in the fact of Mr. Levin having pretended to read from printed works passages which do unt occur .in those works, and having imposed on the credulity of the House. in relation to a certain encyclical letter of Pope Pius the Ninth, in which be asserted certain pat sages oc cur which are not to be found in the document; and, also, in making a certain statement, for which he cited the authority of a certain member of the Uni ted States Senate, the truth of which the Senator referred to totally denies, and declares that nothing that has ever fallen from his lips can be tortured into any semblance of foundation for such a statement. These are the charges upon which, if this commit tee be granted by the House, Mr. Levin is to be tr ied." Ma. EDITOn: — Will von, or airy of your vigilant correspondents, have the goodness to inform the wives of ten thousand mechanics and working men, whore the New Market House is to bo built, for which the aristocratic branch of the Councils have offered fitly dollars fora model 1 It is universally agreed that the site of the Dia mond Market is in- every aspect objectionable. It may be convenient for the Penn street nobles, -but surely it is not for the masses of our population. Besides, it is too contracted, cramped and cribed, and money expended there would be literally thrown away. Let the members ofcouncils from the Third, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Wards look to it! They have been the dupes of a short sighted, partial legislation long enough. The Nine hundred thou sand dollars of City Debt was not contracted fur their benefit. And now, forsooth, Eitly boilers must be paid fora model ore Market House, before the ground is selected on which it is to be erected ! That consumtnate folly and imbecility is to be ex hibited on the part of some members of councils, is already fore-shadowed; and he is a public benefac tor who keeps the strictest eye on the movements of the gentlemen. . HEAVY BASKET. SANDWICH ISLANDS.—Rev. Mr. Thurston in a re cent letter From Kailua, Island of Itowaii, says, there is more religious interests among the people than has been witnessed for several years past,and as in otherparts of the Islands, the schools are preening under the new system. He also states that the chief who'succeeded Kaukini as Governor of Hawaii has been removed for want of mental and moral qualifications; and that one of the common people, far better qualified .(hr the office, is now the acting Governor. "This," says Missionary Her ald for April, "is a new and strange thing under the Hawaiian sun; and by:teaching the people, impres sively, the advantages of knowledge and virtue, ex ercises a very beautiful inlinence on the cause of education." Tin ore has been discovered in New Jersey,—the only place in the United Stales, except one in New Hampshire. It is not yet ascertained whether the mine can be worked to advantage, or to What extent the ore exists. • Jaws.--Within the. last twenty years, upwards of 30,000 wealthy Jews have emigrated from Bavaria, on account of the restrictions to which they were subjected.

Ettr An awful explosion of a steam boiler took place at the flame Print Works, in Providence, R. 1., on the 29th ultimo, shattering to pieces the build ing, and burying in the ruins thirteen persons, of whom eight were killed and two badly wounded.— The cause of the accident has not been ascertained. This brave and gallant officer arrived in our city= last evening, and took lodging at the Monongahela House. He is on his way to llrlexico, to resume his command in the army. We are rejoiced to learn that he has nearly recovered from the effects of the wounds received at the terrible battle of Cerro Gor do, and the storming of Chapultepec. The General is in fine spirits, and looks remarkably well. At the earnest solicitation of a number of friends, he has consented to remain in our city until to-morrow. QCARTER SESSIONS.-A very singular case "from the country," was taken up yesterday morning. It is so complicated that a fair statement of it can hard ly be made, so as to be intelligible. The defend ants were ladies from Plum township—Mrs and Miss M'Junkin. Their respectability is not doubted. The indictment was for "Solicitation and Perjury." Tee prosecuting witness testified that the ladies of fered him an old horse (worth ten dollars) Iwo geese and a gander, if he would swear to a certain state ment in a "Fornication and Bastardy case" pend ing in the District Court, against n member of their family. It appeared from the testimony on the part of the Defence, that Bickly (the prosecutor) had made a statement some time previous, which placed the criminality upon another person,.and that they , did not offer him an old horse, two geese and a gan der, if he would perjure himself. The case was conducted by Wills & Donnelly for Commonwealth ; ITClute and Thos. Hamilton fur Defence. The verdict of the Jury was sealed Theta case of this kind should be permitted to come into court is indeed strange. It was evidently based upon malice, and if we were not wofully de ceived, the prosecutor got the worst of thecontro versy, not alone in the finding of the Jury, but in public opinion he will suffer some, for he has exhib ted his qualifications. DESERTER C•ucHT.—A man wlwbut a few days ago enlistee to fight the battles of his conntry,.yes terday attempted to desert. He was cauget on Fifth street, by the Sergeant, who took possession of him, but not without a struggle. We saw that both were smeared with blood. We believe the officer gut the worst. He acted manfully, making no resistance. The deserter was lodged in jail for safe keeping. GOLD BEATING.—\V e call attention to an adver tisement in another column, of Mr. Jonrr B.

We cheer fully recommend him to persons wanting anything in his line. . Doc AirrreLr..—A lady left a communication with us yesterday, which treats very learnedly of Dogs and Dog Laws. We have an objection to it, how ever: it is not original. We mean that the same ideas have been evolved many a time. We contend that all has been said in regard to the physical, mor al and social condition of the canine race, that is to be said. In view of this, we throw out the banter, in reply to which our lady friends sent us the favor referred to above. Loox Orr.—Some of the lawyers say that the jury has decided that giving a check on a Bank in which one has no funds, is obtaining goods on false pretences. If so our merchants had bettor be on their guard; for wo understand that it is no uncom mon thing for men to overdraw their accounts, and some times send checks when they have no money.
