ATER mom Euxtops, The British steamer Caledonia arrived off Boston * about 10 o'clock, on the evening of the 20th instant —having left Liverpool on the 6th‘. The papers re ceived hy her contain the following interesting intel ligence:— Important News from Ireland. EUAOPE CIF.FtCC, LIVERPOOL,/ Saturday, 11 o'clock, A. M. We have just received daily advice, from Ireland. They contain some intelligence of sterling impolt ante as regards repeal movements. Mr. Smith O'- Brien and Mr. 7 John O'Connell have merged their past difficulties, and agreed to work harmoniously together in the good cause for Abe future. The meeting between those g en tlemen,accompanied by Dr. Wiley, took place yesterday, and after .some explanation on Afeith aides, the two former cordially shook heeds. Immediately after, an address was published, bearing*ii Signatures. of John Miles, D. D., W. S. O'Brien -' John O'Connell; M. P., J. P. Dillon, A. ft.Stulop, C. Diltry,,Y..H., benne, T. F. !Witcher, T. Arkins, P. M. Rae end. John Gray. - The object of the address is to inculcate a spirit of fraternization among all classes of repeaters, and urged that the future , watchword should be union among ourselves. The amalgamation of O'Brien and O'Connell, must exercise a most important in fluence on the future career of repeal in Ireland, and probably be'the means of increased anxiety on the part of the government in that country. W. Mitch ell, who retired from the Irish confederation, gives his reason in the United Irishman for so doing. He stateethat it arises, from his difference of opinion with Mr. O'Brien—the latter gentle Man declining any public operation with the former, on account of his extreme republican principles, which he has ad vocated in his journal. The leaders of both the Nation and United Irish man continue to exhibit the same contempt f.r the Government, and determine to procure repeal at all hazards. DUBLIN, Wednesday-night, May 4.—Meeting rf the /rah Confederation.—This association held its first meeting, since the passing of the " Act for the better Security of the . Crown," &c., this evening, in the Music Hall, Lower Abbey street, which was crowded to excess. From the extreme violence of the different speeches delivered, it could scarcely lie supposed that such an enactment se that alluded to, was in reality to be found in the statute book. Theacdessions to the Confederation son .uneed this evening were both numerous and respectable, a mongst whom were some Roman Catholic and one Protestant clergyman. Mr. Hodges, the government reporter, (who,by the way, was cheered on entering the hallo and two police inspectors were present. The chair was ta ken by William li. O'Ne;l, Esq ., barrister. Dlr. Charles Gavin Duffy reminded the meeting that the English government had thrown down an• other challenge -to the Confederation. (Groans for Lord Clarendon.) Ho held in his hand the proclam ation forbidding the assembling of the Council r f three huhdred, and the enrollment of a national guard. (Laughter.) [Mr. Duffy then tore the pine laniation in pieces, and flinging the fragments on the ground, trod on them. The cheering that rol- lowed this movement was deafening end long con. tinuad.J. Mr. Duffy continued to say—They should tear his proclamation into fragments, and then make wadding, of it. (Cheers.) They would go in spite of it; they would elect the Council of Three-Hun dred, and they would continue to enrol their na tional guard. Mr. Meagher then read an extraordinary document, which bore exactly the appearance of a government, proclamation, and is a bold arid into c to brine. the proclamations of thetastle into contempt. Mr. ' Meagher said that, as other proclamations of tha people had been torn down, he advised the po lice not to interfere with this. He said, if the peo ple were driven into insnrrection by the government, and if they_ were successful—as be believed they would be in such a struggle—an Irish Republic would be proclaimed from the Council Chamber of Dublin Castle. (Loud cheers.) A col ision took place on Saturday last, at Limer ick, between the Young and Old Irelanders. Messrs. Smith O'Brien, Thomas Meagher, and John Mitch ell, attended a soiree at the Sarafield Clubhouse ; but the proceedings were interrupted by an attack from the Old Irelanders—the windows and doors of the building were demolished—stones and missiles were hurled through the broken sashes—shots were fired by the Confederates, who, in self defence, were obliged to tear up the seats and forms to protect thernselves—an effigy of Mitchell was burned out side, and the tar barrel was placed so convenient to the premises, that they took fire, to the terror of all within. The scene was frightful, and were it not for the intervention of the authorities, the cense ' quences would have been awful. Smith O'Brien went among the crowd, with a view of pacification, when lie received a severe contusion from a ,tone beneath the left eye, and obliged to go hem • 7r n quility was not restored until one o'clock on Sunday morning. Resentment, on the part of the Old Ire. lenders, at the disrespectful way in which Mr. Mitchell had frequently spoken, in his paper, of the late Mr. O'Connell, appears to hare been the main cause of the outbreak. In consequence of the late riotous proceedis at Limerick, the Lord Lieutenant has "proclaimnged" the country and the city of Limerich under the act for prevention of crime in Ireland. His lord thin, in his reply to the address of the n.agistratei of Dub lin, intimates that it is not his present intention to "proclaim" the county and .city of Dublin, but "that an important change has taken place, and that the few turbulent and desperate men who 'have occa• shined so much alarm, having nowhere found the support upon which they relied, agitation hiss in a great measure subsided." His lordship adds, that it is better that the movement should be put down by the good sense of-the people than by measures of coersion; but if pike-making and seditious speech. making arc persisted in, he will use the powers with which the laws invest him. • The military force now in Ireland comprises an effective body of 39,000 men, exclusive of 22,000 enrolled rensioners, the staff of the . militia regi ments, and the armed police. In the two cares, the Queen v. O'Brien and Meag her upon the motion of Mr. Perrin, orders for stri king special juries were pronounced- The trial. cannot, however, come on belbre the 13th instant, and it is not probable that they will commence fbr a clay or two after that, perhaps about Monday the 15th. Strange, unexpected, but at the same time most important events have taken place during the last week. The * spirit of disaffection is not yet tamed; Government has come forward to grapple boldly with the Irish Republicans. Proclamations are is sued against the election of the Council of Three Hundred, and the formation of the National Guard. To this the Old, as well an the Young Icelanders, demur, and declare their determination to act in defence of the proclamation. A serious affair has taken place between the moral andsphysical force repealer& at place. Smith O'Brien,,Mitchell, and Meagher have been grossly assaulted add abused in the city of the violated treaty,whither they luid gone to enjoy a complimentary soiree on the 26th ult. The state trials are not more advanced than at the date of our last issue. PRANCE. OPENING UT TUE NATIONAL ASSESIIILY. This being the day fixed for the opening of the National Assembly, the rappel bent at an early hour in the different quarters, and the National Guards soon afterwards assembled at their respective places of, rendezvous. At 11 o'clock all the battalions had assumed the stations assigned to them, from the place Vendome, along the Boulevards, the Place de la Concorde, and around the Palace ofthe Assembly. The first battalion of the Garde Mobile was drawn up in front of the Palace, and on the sides were sta tioned detachments of troops of the line, mixed tcith the National Guards. The cavalry, consisting of dragoons and lancers, and theiartillery, occupied the Replanade lof the Invalids and the Champs Elysees. The entire force under arms was estimated at about 33,000 men. The-crowd assembled on the Place Cie la Concorde and in the neighborhood of the. Palace was considerable. The blouses were in a great ma.' jority, but their attitude was perfectly inoffensive. The edifice specially constructed for the. Assam bly.occupies the centre of the court of the Palace of the Chamber of Deputies, with which it communi cates by two glass galleries.- The hall is of a rectan gular form, but the portion facing the board of the President is circular. It is about , lo yards in length and 27 in width, 10 rows of seats with backs extend ed on both sides,' and inthecircular part, and in the centre an open spacer:las been reserved sufficiently spaciouli for the circulatioh of the representatives. The seats are separated by a member oftataircases, communicating with a gallery . ,which ranges round the hill, and about three yards above the last row of seats are the public tribunes.. The hall is lighted by windows, opened over those tribunes, and on the same level and in the circular part is a second tier of tribunes destined to the public, and large enough to accommodate 200 persons. Those Underneath may contain about 1,500 more. The internal deco ration oldie hall ; s extremely Siniple..lt consistri - of a basement, aderned with largo panels, supporting, a series of pilasters, on which the ceiling rest& The frieze is decorated with lions header, on which , are inscribed the words—Liberty; Equality,,Friternity.

Three clergymen, among whom was Abhe Fournier, the Cure of Nan tes, whose house was sacked by the mob after his election, were dressed in theft - soutanes. The pres ence of only one member excited some sensation; this was the celebrated '"Father, Lacer& ire, whose shaved head and white robe foimedso striking a con trast with the_costunte..or the rent of tan Assembly. Among the Deputies.or the former Chamber present were Mesars.Odillon Barrot,Blin de Bourdon, Isam• bert, Larabit , B , Subervic Me , Dupin St. Alldn, Luneatt, Berryeroulay de la ethe, ' Havin.Grandim, Bil laudel, L'Herbette, Larochejacquelin. Roger, Leon de Malleville, Fallonx , &c. The most conspicuous amongst the new members, were, Beranger, Barbee, Emmanuel Arago, Julius Fabre, Murat, soli of the former King of Naples Ac. The•tribune diploma:4rue was occupied by Lord and lady Normandy, Mr. Rush, the American Min ister; Baron de Thom, the Austrian Charge d`Af: faires; the Ministers f the Republics of the Ecua dor, Chili and New Grenada; the Tuscan Minister; the Haytian Envoy; M. d'Anau, „the Spanish Minis ter, 4.e. . . At 1 o'clock M. Audry de Puiravea, the senior member, took the chair, accompanied by six younger members, Messrs. Fresneau, Astouin, (the coal porter of Marseilles), Lagreannol, Gambian, St. Beuve, Avond, and Ferroaillet, who were to act as Secretaries. Shortly afterwards the cannons of the Invalides announced the approach of the Members of the Provisional Government, and the deputimi proceeded-. to their seata. In the meantime a rushavas made at one of the doors by a number 'of National Guards, who attempted to force their way into the hall. M. Chateaurenard, the governor of the palace, ran to the door, and declared that no armed person should enter without passing over his body. All applauded his firmness, and quietly retired. At that moment the drums of the National Guard were heard to beat to arms, and the officers of the house announced the arrival of the members of the Provisionbl Government, M. Dupont de Eure, lean ing on MM. Lamartine and Louis Mane then enter ed the hall, and were followed by MM. Arago,.Mar rest, Marie, II thmont, Ledru-Rollin, Albert, Flo con, and Cremieux; M. Paguerre, Secretary of the Government, and M. Caussithere, Prefect of Police, who alone was dressed in the Republican costume. The members of the Government having placed themselves in front of the tribune, the entire assem bly rose and salu'ed them with unanimous cries of "Vire la Republique," and "Tice le Guurermuent Prorisoire," which were repeated by the spectatori in the public galleries, and the numerons persons who had obtained admission into the adj.diling halls. The members of the Government having bowed to the Assembly, were ushered to the last bench on the left. No sooner were they seated than the Pres ident sent a messenger tri M. Dupont (de I , Riire) to invite him to ascend the tribune. Ile rose, and nc• eompanied by his colleagues, advanced towards the tribune, which he mounted alone. his presence there elicited new cries of Vice leGouvernment Pro m/are! and when silence W4B restor ed . ho read the the following address to the Assembly: "Citizen Repeesentative4 of Me People. "The Provisional government of the Republic comes to bow before the nation, and to render a signal homage to the supreme power with which you are invested. "Elect of the people! we welcome you to this great capital, where your prmenee excites a senti ment 61- happiness and hope vthich will not be d. cern& "Trustees of the National Sovereignty, you arc about to found new institutions ' ripen the broad basis .or democracy, and to give to France the only con stitution that can suit her, a Republican constitution. (Here the whole Assembly rose, and with their right hands raised, er.ed, " Mire la Republique") g "But after having proclaimed the great erratical taw, which ii about to organize definitively the coml. try. like us, Citizen representatives you will pro ceed to regulate the possible and efecacinus action of the Government in the relatiiins which the nears aities of labor establish amour all citizens.and which ought to hare fur basis the sacred laws of justice and fraternity. (Renewed cheering, and cries of "rive la Republique.) "In fine, the time has arrived for the Provisional Government to resign into your hands the unlimited power with which the Revolution had invested You know that, with regard to ourselves, this diets. torship was only a moral power, exercised in the midst of those difficult circumstances through which we have passed. "Faithful to our origin and our personal convic tions, we have hesitated to proclaim the Republic of PCbtUdt). "Tosiay we shall inaugurate the labors of the National Assembly to the cry that should always sa lute it—Virek Republique. The cry was again repeated with the greatest en thusiasm by the Assembly. M. Dupont (de l'Euns) having !ell the tribune, M. Cremieux ascended it in his turn, and inflamed the Assembly that its Session was opened, and that its labors commenced on that day. He afterwards call ed on the President to invite the representatives of the people to retire into their Standing Committees to verity their powers. M. Andre: de Poiravean having transmitted that invitation to the Assembly, it adjourned amidst cries of "Vire /a Republique," and " Vire fe Gatroertuneat Provisoire." At 3 o'clock, the Deputies having completed the verification of the power'', re-entered the Hall when the President called on M.

The oath of every true republican, addtd the minister, is in his heart, and not on his lips. The assembly received the declaration of the Min ister with great applause, and ratified, by its unani mous approbation, the measure adopted by the Pro •isiooal Government amidst deafening cries of" Mire k Loi re. Republique," and "nye le Got:urn/nen? Prooi " All the provisions and anticipations of the alarm ists in Paris have been falsified. The half of t.f the IsLitional Assembly was already crowded with Minis ters at the moment when our express Jell Paris yes terday at 12 o'clock. There hi every reason to hope that the object of M. Caussider and of the Govern ment now on the point of expiring, will have been attained, and that the , Ilopulilican form of govern ment will have a fair opportunity of being tested in France. Our correspondent writes: "I mentioned in my letter of yesterday that for eign affairs had much influence in producing the gloom observed on the Bourse. Several circumstan ces concur to-day in enhancing apprehensions of foreign war. The principal one of these is the de cree (referred to above) of the Provisional Govern ment, opening an extraordinary credit to the Minis ter of War to the amount 0f.80,119,415f.:11,200,- 000) for urgent and unexpected expenses." The Presse states that General Oudinnt, the.Com mander-in-Chief of the Army of the Alps, who-was in Paris, received orders on Wednesday morning from-the Minister of War to proceed forthwith to his bead quarters.- Be consequently left Paris for the army on Wednesday afternoon. "Another fact to which this decree has prnbably reference is announced in the Refin•nte,namely, that King Charles Albert is accused of betraying the cause he had espbused. From the decree just noti ced, it is deemed evident that the French army (of the -Alps) will fiarthwith enter Savoy. The second fact shows, that if such interferrace takes place, it will be opposition to, and not in accordance with, the wish of King Charles Albert." The Moniteur publishes an address signed by the members of the Provisional Government to tile citi zens, telling them that the. Government is about to resign the trust confided to them by the people into the hands of their representatives, and thanking them for the devoted assistance they have received from them. - The Moniteur further publishes a decree of the Proviainnal Government, fixing the number of gene ral officers to be . employed :on active service at 65 generals of division, 130 generals of brigatie,and the staff to be comprised of 25 colonels, 20 lieutenant colonels, 90 majors, and 280 captain. ITALY. The Risorernento of Turin announces that Charles Albert was temporising, and thatbe would no carry on active Military operttions until the declaratio n of the ProVisional Government of Milan.relative to the' jorin of Govii*Oent to be given to Lombardy.

Late accounts from Italystate,lhit King Charles Albert haittresolved - fa'attack the 4.iistrians in their entreached.e.amp - at Verona, and was Within a league and- a half of its walla for the purpose on the 28th. The head-quarters of the Sardinian drily had been tranaferred from Volta to Vallegio, on the leftbank of the Mincio. Near Villafranca the-Piedmontese surprised a body of the Austrian army. The officers fled with part of the soldiers: The others laid dOwn their arms. Marshall Radetaky has sent to Inns pruck some families. of Verona as hostages. The capture ofEdine by, the, Austrians is confirm ed; but it turns out that they were almost immedi ately attacked again, and driven from the city. There is no further news relative to:the advance of Nugent. From .Vienna we learn that the Archduke Francis Joseph bad gone' to Verona the headquar-1 tars of Radetski. The English Consul at Venice had retired to Tri este, ea Open his declaration that the. Venetian Re public would not be acknowledged by Great Britain, the mob tore down the armorial insignia from his house and he fled for safety. On the 24th Venice was blockaded by sea entirely, the city. was in a state of anarchy, and the people in general and deep dia. tress: , At Posen the guerilla war with the scythe men continues to be waged in a fearfully bloody manner. Lortnozr, May s.—The evacuation of Lombardy was the first incident in the war, and it was to a great extent a voluntary and prudent retreat on the part of Marshal Radetzky. By securing his position between the great fortresses of the Mincio and the Adige he avoided any unnecessary effusion of b'oed, he recruited and collected his troops,' he waits in security for the arrival of reinforcements, he allows the first impetus of the insurrection to cool, and shows the Sardinian army that the emancipation of Italy is not to be accomplished by a few hasty marches. . . Moreover, this position of the Austrians has inter rupted the direct cuminunication between Milan and Venice. and the Venetian territory has derived no sort of benefit from the Piedmontese demonstration on the western frontier. Higher up the country the corps which is advancing under Count Nugent has crushed the insurgents whereevor it has appeared.. Udine has surrendered; Pordenone has been occu pied: and we shall not be surprised to learn that itself has capitulated. It may be blockaded by sea and land and the pro. visional authorities have given offence to their Hahn neighbors, by a want of concert in the common en terprise. This state of things suggests a conclu sion which ought to be acted upon , fur the benefit of all parties. The Austrian empire may without any material diminution of dignity or real power, sacrifice the Milaiicse and even the libutuanterrito ries. There is nothing Which may be called a de fensible frontier short of the Mincio. But the case is wholly different with the Venetian territory. From the moment that the Republic of Venice ceased to be able to repel invasion or to-pre serve neutrality, it laid bare the frontier of the AlM tri:in dominions in their moat vital part. The cam• paign of Fi9s demonstrated that a French army, when it has forced the Adtge and passed the lake of Garda, is /in the high road to Vienna. no mainte nance of that Brett line of delbeces by Austria is absoletely essential, clot to her supremacy in Italy --for that we assume her to hare abandoned or for feited—but to the security of the Imperial capital. We are, therefore, morally certain, that though the Cabinet of Vienna might be induced to treat, and we think ought to treat, With rerereners to Lombardy, it will not hear of the sacrifice of the Venetian ter ritory, until it has undergone the last humiliations of defeat by an enemy of vastly superior military power. The Lombard Goserunient, if it be wise, ought at once to close at such terms, if they can be obtained. They are tinder no obligations of honor or policy to treat conjointly with Venice, for VIIIICO 415E11 41y rooel.Oned her own exclusive Republic; and, if they bold out for snore than they have gotten, they run some risk of losing the whole, or they open the door of Italy to a French Republican army.—Times. Ausrars.—The new Austrian constitution was formally proclaimed on the 25th ult., the Emperor's birth day, amid the general rejoicings of the people of Vienna. The Austrian commissioner at Ci - acow has inform ed the authorities in • ilcsia that .he A ust , irn govern meet has thought proper to gu ird the Austrian from tr2r, against Prussia with a militar) cordon to prevent "great masses of certain Polish einigrunt* overrun ning the territories of Cracow' only such Polish em igran's an can prove that they are Austrian subjects will in future be allowed to enter the imperial dominions, I, A skirmish took place on the 20th ult. between the populace and the troops, in consequence of the refusal of Governmret to allow Polish emigrants, not ratives of Cracow, to remain! in the town. Itaricades were erected soil orient, rockets are said to have been thrown from the castle. Peace was eventually restared by the emigrant. voluntari ly removing. General Castiglione is acid to be wounded. GERM ANY. The accounts from the grand duchy of D :den. show that some further encounters had taken lace at Friburg and other places, between the republi p cans and the troops of the German confederation; but the insurgents appear to have been invariably defeated and dispersed without much difficulty. A letter from Sceopfsheim, dated April 27, says that a battle has taken place near Dauonbach, between the Wart. emburgh troops and a column of bchween SOO and 900 German workmen, arrived from France, under the command of Ilarweigh, in which the former was ViCtOtiOUS. 'Twenty-three insurgents were killed, and 200 were made prisoners. Moat of the insurgents have returned to Switzerland, or to Alsace, by way of Huningen, where they have been disarmed by the Swiss and French authorities, according to the re cent decree of the French Provisional Government. TAZATT BETWEEN Rv nrA, Svegtorat, AND DEN JIMILIIL—Lettem lions St. etersbulgh, dated 18th ult., states, from authority, that 4 treaty offensive and defensive between Russia, Sweeden and Den mark, is arranged; and will positively he ratified in the event of an entry ofGerman troops in Se.hies wig, in which case Denmark wilt be aupportod by the "(hole forties of the other two powers. This contradicts the intelligence from the Ilamburgh pa.. pers, which must, however, be held as interested in this matter in favor of Germany. - TURKEY. A letter from Constantinople, dated the 17th ult., confirms the report of a revolt in Moldavia. Letters from Galata state, that on the 9th of Apnl, Jesay was the scene of terrible disorder. It appears an attempt was made at a revolution, and the lives of the Prince and his family were iti danger. INDIA. The commercial intelligence brought by the In dia mail, with dates from Calcutta to. the 23d, Madras to the 24th March, and from Bombay to the Ist of April, is of more than usual importance. From and alter the ..25th of March last, the duties on merchandise, by ships of all nations, imported into the ilominiona embraced within the Est India Company's charter, were equalised, and front that period the Driiiah flag will enjoy no advantage over the flag of any other nation. Tho interportalr tado is also declered free, without any esception or reservation. GERMANY. The great problem of the reconstitution of the German Empire seemed, no doubt, to many of our readers, when first we alluded to it, to be oce of the most extraordinary, H not impracticable, schemes of this eventful age, and no man can calculate the pro gress or the extent of such a revolution in the centre of the continent of Europe. Rutin spite of the con fusion which has prevailed at Frankton, and the an archy which has spread with more or less intensity to every part of the Confederation, the plan for the fundamental regeneration of Germany by an Impe rial Constitution, has been steadily purseed. Seventeen Men of-,Crust, to tpta the term applied to them by their cciuntrymen, have been sent to ?rank fort, by different Governments, to assist, if not to supersede, the existing Diet in the preparation of this gigantic scheme The result of. their tabors is now complete, and we have before us the proposed Con stitution of the Garman Empire, as it will probably be submitted to the deliberations of the Assembly about to assemble inFrankfort from all parts of the nation. • I The territory of the Germanic ConfederatiOn, or, to speak more correctly, of the German Empire, is assumed to extend from Istria to Schleswig, includ ing both those provinces, and thus reaching from the Adriatic to the Baltic. It will also include the pro vinces lately incorporated by Prussia, and extend longitudinally from the Niemen to Saatand the Mo selle. As the principal object of this vast revolu tion is to give unity to the nation, centering in one' political system,all the existing Sovereignaand states of Germany are called upon to surrender a very con siderable share of their independence and power. Tberelations • of Germany with other countries will be conducted, not, es at present, by diplomatic envoys from Prussia, Bavaria, Hanover, Saxony, &c.,. but exclusively by the - universal interests of the na tion. The foreign legations in various parts of Ger many will, therefore, in like manner cease. The en tire military force of this country will in like man ner be essentially one, and be commanded and ad ministered by the-staff of the Empire, and fused in to one Imperial army, of which the present national corps will be divisions. So,also, the fortifications . and defences of the whole- Empire -will be placed under . thif control of the;lmperial _Government. .. . ' Itirill'be propnied that the Head of.this Govern,' meat shall bet - Hereditary Emperor of Germany,lo be in the first instance -elected 'hy - ther Cenatituent assetablr to i o wbich . this constitution s to to:el/Omit . , . _ . '. <c [ ted. - This - mivereign will . govern the Te4.eral Colo cents of the whole notions, with. the., trilabee-Orre sponsible Ministers, and the suPpott of a National Parliament'consisting of,two houses.. The Dpper HOunrls to be composed of all the present Bovareifill. members of the.Genbanic Diet, who may sit by de pety, and likewise. '- of a body of Senators,, 161 in number, to , be men. cif more:than-90 years.of age, elected for 12 years and in 'rotation, with certain !qualifications. The Lower Rbuse will be chosen front the political Arisemblies of each separate Ger man state, in the proportion of 1 member for every 100,000 inhabitants. These bodies will exercise the powers and enjoy all the rights of Parliament. The seat of Government is proposed to be at Frankfort en-the-Maine. But this Constitution contains another institution to which we should he - inclined to attribute the high est rank in importance, dignity, and duration. A Supreme and Imperial Court ofJodicature is perma nently to sit at Furemberg, coMposed of 21 members taken from the judicial order in the several states; one-third of these judges being named by the Em peror, and one.ibird elected by each Chamber of the Diet—the tenure of their office being for , life. - The powers of this court Would be extremely vast—more extensive even than those of the Su- Treme Court of the United States. They would embraCe not only the decision of all • questions of Federal law, arising between States or individuals, ' but the determination of poliiical rights, : the trial of political impeachments, both of Ministers of the Empire and of the separate states, and a species of political arbitration in cares of dispute between the members of the Empire. such .a tribunal as that can -be founded and maintained' with adequate authority, it would place the union or Germany on higher and more solid ground than any purely political institutions which ever sprang out of the fertile brain of a German ju 'rist, or the crater of a liberal - revolution. Of the reture no man can speak; and the tlitrinan Empire still looms indistinctly through the toyste ries of the coming time. But we believe it may be affirmed that the firat act of the German Rational Assembly will he to create a a temporary Regeney; componed of the Archduke John ofAustria,a Prince of the Iliture of Brandenburgh, and a thini member, to be named byrßavaria and the minor German Pow. ers. DENMARK AND HOLSTEIN. Hazthettott, May.l—The Oos:see Zeilung, of the 28th ult., published at Stettin, contain, a notice from the authoritiea of that district, stating that in consequence of the s eps, taken by the Danes, all veasels in that harbor, and Danish property. would -be laid under embargo with the exception of that belonging to Sehleswig finhtein. 2d.—lt is this moment reportedifrom Elsinore, by letter of yesterday morning, that an embargo is now being laid by the Danish authorities upon all all yes sets without exception belonging to the Stales of the German Confederation. Amongst -others the Lu beck ship Hermann, Capt. Huthe, from Bahia to Stettin, has been shipped atthat port. 10 P. M.—The King of Denmark arrived at Co penhagen on the 29th ult., in the Agir steamer, in good malth. The. Copenhagen journals give several extracts from the despatches of General' Heileman° ' dated the Danish headquarters at Sonderbuigh; in the lelandaof Alsen, on the 27th. He could nut certify the exact amount of the loss or the army in killed, wouteled, and prisoner,. Of the officers - there ap peared to have been found missing since the begin ning of the campaign, between 40 and 80, of whom the former number at least were reckoned as killed or wounded. The private correspondence of the Danish journal, describe the forces of the Confed.. , :ration in the attack 1111 Schleswtg as being immense ly superior to the Danes in 'numbers. They are es tonated at from 23,000 to 30,000 MCA. They like wise describe the loss of the. Prussians as fir beyond the published German accouots of it. One paper places it as high as 9000 men. There is much great er exaggeration in this last statement than the first; the army of the Confederation, including the Hants trezian and Brunswick cavalry, which had pushed be yr"-nd Schleswig to the Weswitid the Free Corm and Ifolsteiners who were petieieg the Schlei to therst, neither of whom took tiny active part in the engage ment, was ereatly superior to that of the. Danes._. An army thee outflanked on both wings,and attacked in front by a number equal to itself, has nothing left but a retreat to escape annihilation; and, on the whole, the retreat was made in good order. It is in these military necessities, and the stout resistance made in the action itself, that the Danes find conso lation. They estimate their own toss in all as a mounting to 1600 men. The accounts front Rendsborgh, of April 26th, state that the advanced guard of the Allies and Han °veneer entered Flensburg!' the previous day. That the troops, had captured three batteries, anti taken from 300 to 400 prisoners betweenAchleswig and Flensbaegh. That the two regiments of Prussian ghards had captured 24 LAMA cannon hear Bau. - The Danes are rapidly and continually retreating, having no chance against the overwhelming force of the Pruastan and Hanoverian t - onps. They had retired upon Gravenaleee, and serene; ships of war had been driven down Pittsburgh bay, by the Prose sian fire. By the latest accounts great alarm prevailed a mongst the Baltic merchants; the Prussians bad reached Hadcrslatien by the road tir Appenrode, and were making preparation, to invest the island of Alyce. The Hanoverian, were to commence hostilities a gainst Alsen on the 28th. The Great Belt is effectu ally blockaded by the Danes. It is feared the Settles. wig.llotstein Canals are closed to British shipping. It is confidently stated that Russia has determined to aid Denmark, that 100,000 men are at . her dupls. sal, and that the Rutzeian guards are, in fact, atlliga, rea'y to embark, if not already embarked. MASSACRE AT CRACOW BY THE AUSTRIANS. On the 27th of April, the. Austrian soldiers had seized a certain quantity of arms at the shop of a gunsmith in eracow, when the Poles wrested the guns from them. A fight took place, in which some men lost their lives. Soon after.this, the troops oc• copied all public squares and . thoroughfares, and fired, during a loag hrthr, upon a crowd almost un armed. The people, however, got- masters of the principal square, and the .soldiery retreated to the citadel, from which bonibi - were thrown on the time. Fire broke out at two different points. In a mo ment an enormous number of barricades were erect ed. The much liked Count Castiglione tried in per. son to quiet the people, and, at the head of his staff stroke words of peace to the mob i but he was fired at from the windows of a . neighboring house, and wounded severely in the face. Count lifoltke under took immediately 00 coinmandinthief; and ordeted the troops to fire. A horrible slaughtering took place from this moment. The t vivo was bombarded during three hours, until the - people cried for mercy. - The town capitulated ; the insurgents, and *itch of the Polish emigrants, as remained alter the conflict. threw away their arms, and fled from the town. It, is said that the soldiery had ten men killed . and about forty wounded. Order was restored. RUSSIA. Several letters in the Cologne Gazette are filled with apprehensions of an approaching conflict with Russia. The declaration - of the Viceroy of Poland, Prince Paskewitch, to the Polish noblemen is indeed fraught with the elements of anxiety for all Germa ny. The Prince bide them turn to the Emperor, who would soon be abledai prove to them that Rus sia loved them better than Germany. lie asked them to wait in patience for a few weeks and months, and that their children and their children's children would remember the kindness and - praise the gene rosity of the Emperor of all the Sclavouians, The scheme of Nicholas is stated to be no tests than'. a union of all the Sclavonic tribe into one gigantic federative monarchy, and .consequently the attain-. mein of an unlimited sway over Europe. EGYPT. Letters from Alexandria state, that Mehemet Ali was dttingerausliill—ao ill, in fact, that he could not Jong survive: his death was fleetly expected. There were grounds for apprehension that some serious disturbances would break out on tho death .of the Pacha. There had been a 'revolt at Cairo; tholes& era of which went hanging with short -shrift bythe governor; and the bey, who was the instigatorot the movement, was decapitated on the morning of the. sailing of the Hindostan., Her -Majesty's-steamer Odin wan detained at Alexandria by the British con sul, ready tithe despatched .inimediately the death of the Pacha takes place.
