"Yes replied La Fitte; "but I must tell you
that'my man have got an inkling of our:business,

after a few, vain. arguments to persuade. La Fitte
proceed, he yielded to his'arrangement. After

the island
'Here La Fitte had spent much of the Wealth
which he had collected by his illegal operations.
Everything gave evidence of taste and; good liv-
ing: *- it was a beautiful spot. The imildings were .
of hewn logsoine story high, excepting the main
building, which was two—and they covered near:
ly an acre of ground. On each side of;the. main
or two storied building were wings of one hundred'
feet long—the main building, being sixty. , The
Main edifice stood forth" same - six or eight , feet;
andin front of it a spacious g lawn was enclosed,
ands ornamented with "greensward, choice trees
and floWers, and chequered with graveled walks,
the main one leading. to the front door. At each
extreme of the wings, and at right angles with
them;.-Other blOcks commenced running back;two
hundred and'aixty feet; and another block corn.
menced.running parallel .with the front_ Thus,
the buildings formed a complete square; the roof
pitching to the outside. They were covered, first
with softlime, and afterwards, While the Bine was
soft, small pebbles were dashed against the houses,
forming a rough, hard and white coating, when
dried. This is called rough casting. La Pitta's
department was in the main edifice; and was fur
nished with the most luxurious and costly mate
rials: large gilt framed mirrors, mahogany chairs,
Tnikey carpets, silk hangings, costly paintings
indeed, his parlor was fit for his', majesty the king
of Great Britain—and too grabdfor

arrived 'at this retreat, La 'Ronde was surprised at
its beauty, its magnificence, and also, at the MOM

her: of hold, hardy, and resolute looking men,
wbinh he saw loitering about the premises, like
soldiers of duty. Some were Trench, some Span
ish, and a few Ameritans. After taking supper
from a cleen and sumptunuedi furnishzd. table, La
Fitte led him through his establishment. In the
armory,.be found a bountiful supply of every kind
of weapons • some of which were of curious shape._
The magazine was well supplied.with power.
The hariquating hall, the council chamber, and
the. private department of the captain were all
visited. At a short distance 'from the house, to
the east, a spacious harbor was fitted up, and fin.
ished with well trimmed vessels of various class
es. La Ronde as so enchanted with the .order,
beauty'and magnificence by .which stir
rounded, and felt a growing awe' for the man by
whose energy all these turbuleit spirits were kept
insubjection: ,
A'a the evening, after supper, La Rotiffe was ta.,
ken into the captain's private room. Here he found
books and luxuries common to the room :of a
fashionable literary gentleman. Taking a seat, at
the invitation of La Fitte, he was thus addressed :
Mr. La Rohde, I have a proposition to make. I
Will preface it by saying, that some time since my
Secretary.and first Lieutenant was killed, and that
I have been unable as yet to supply his place. I
have been consulting with my men, and they all
aPpear willing that I should offer 'You:the vacan
eq..; It is my desk.° secure a man of;RduCatioa;
and I take you to be such; for I want a compan
ion and a business man. Now, w•hat say you to
this proposition?" Not receiving an immediate
reply; ta Fitte continued : And permit me to
add; you are now one of us; no eye ever beheld
this place, except it belcinged to one of our band;
and no man can come here and go away alive,
without swearing eternal allegiance to us."
This *position was exceedingly annoying to
our young- adventurer. He now began to see the
consequences" of his imprudence. He saw that
his situation was a critical one,and he was afraid.
His object in coming to• the "rendezvous was to
proiecute the abduction of Caroline Villere ; but
the =intelligence now communicated, materially
altered his feelings. He'was desirous to, secure the
services of La Fitte, but bad never - dreamed of
joining his hand. After a moment's reflection, he
sued for time; promising to return an answer_ in
the morning.•• This was treelY granted, and the
conversation assumed an easy and general charac.,
ter: yhile La Ronde and La Fitte were covers-
rag; the quiet of the place was disturbed by a sud
den and enchituting burst of instrumental music.
La Ronde was transpofted with its sweetness and
perfection; at one moment it was like the mighty
gushing torrent—at another it was as soft as the
strains of the Eolian harp.
How do you like the performance of my hand V'
inquired the captain.
“Exceedingly well," replied La Ronde they
play with much taste and accuracy."
" Will,you walk out and see the display of fire

'44 With ttleasure; captain !"

The Democratic State Convention passed the fol
lowing Resolution::
_ .
Resolved,' That . prodigal grants of special I)&ileges, we - will dispute forever. No newNl3ank;
nor any recharter, without stringent individ al li
ability; and'every possible restraint the le can
lay on banking corporations, we hold to be a im
perative necessity of the times. There is no'safe.
ty, and can be none, except in a firm and faithful
adherence to the specie basis.
. Tat! !doctrine' embodied in this Resolution has
long been contended for by the Democratic Party,
not onlyinPiintisylvania, but throughout the coen
try. No man will dare to say that it is not right.—
If a Banking Corporation is permitted to issue prom-'
issory notes, surely the members composing that
Corporation, should be made liable, in their individ
ual capacity, for the redemption of those notes. No
honest Banker can'object to inch law. It can poni
bly do no harm to any one, and it is a security tb
the note•koldeis which Is absolutely necessary. A
Banking Association should be treated precisely as
a company of individuals who are engaged in the
manufacture of iron and cotton, or in the sale of
dry4gooditand groceries. If a company engaged in
in any of these occupations, issues promissory notes
or contracts debts of any • description, the private
property °reach and every member of the partner.
ship. Is liable for the discharge of the indebtedness,
to the uttermost farthing.
.But, says an objector,*ith such restrictions thrown
around Banking, no person will be found willing to
engage in the business. Well, suppose such to be
the case, the country will not suffer very much.—;
The sun will rise and set as usual i—seed time and
ti plentiful harvest, will bless the earth, if there was
`not a single Banking institution is the land. Bet we
deny - that Individual Liability will deter persons
frem engaging in Banking. That principle has been
incorporated in . Bank charters granted in several
States, and has worked well. :To sky that such re
strictiona will prevent Banking is Clearly tin admis
aion that it is not an honest occupation, -This ipin
elusion is enevitable. ' •
This :question of Individual. Liability will come
"upatthe next cession of the Pennsylvania „Le,gisla
tore. The Charters of `several of the existing Banks
will soon expire, and their Directora will • fappli,.. for
re•chartera. A number of new Banks will also be:.
petitioned'for. That the Democratic party will be'
in power at Harriaburgh, we think will scarcely ad
mit of a doubt. What then is their duty 'I For our:
self individually, we do not hesitate to . deilare that
we are opposed to the extension of Banking - para.;
egee in this State. There is already too much Bank
paper and .not enough of the Currency of the Consti
tution, Glum AND Samna, in circulation. The inev
itable effect of Bank issues is to keep the precious
metals locked up out of circulation. But if the
Representatives of the people should be of the
opinion that the public interests, especially in com
mercial and manufacturing districts, require •the
creation of new Banks or the re-charter of old ones,
a SzEcir. Rains should be insisted upon in every case,
and Innivinuat Lranttrrr made an indispensable
condition.
-Gov. &tunic, in his annual message to the Legis.
lature of Pennsylvania, in January, 1848, took a po
sition on this question that met the hearty approba•
tion of the radical Democracy. That honest Demo
crat an enlightened Statesman, used the following
language, which, we think, will apply with peculiar
force at the present time :
“Nothing . can contribute so much, to the mainte
nance of our present prosperity, as a sound curren
cy. Pennsylvania is rich in productions of almost
every description, required by the wants of mankind;
and nothing la - necessary to make her people the
moat independentin the world, bat a proper regard
fur her true interests. To advance these, she mus t
not he teduced hem her devotion to sound princi
ples by the artificial contrivances of false econo
mists, whose selfish theories are as (Mediae as they
are destructive of the public good.
“The present is a most propitious period, when
there is an abundance of gold and silverin the coon
try-,- to make a determined effort to increaseits cir
culation and to secure to the people the
% currency
which the wisdom of the framers of the Constitution
of the United States provided. Instead of creating
new banks, or increasing the capital of old ones,
our efforts should be directed to secure the solvency
of these which already exists ; and thereby render
their circulation sound and reliable.
"Impressed with the force of these considerations,
I unconvinced that the increase of the banking cap
ital of this State, would be unwise and impolitic ;
and I respectfully recommend that, before any one
of the existing banks is rechnrtered, a searching
scrutiny into its affairs, its management, its credit,
and itimeans; and if it be found that its notes have
been suffered to depreciate, that the accomm oda
bons have been bestowed upon favorites and large
speculators, and dealers in money, instead of being
diffused among moderate and safe customers, that
they heve at one period, encouraged speculations by
their excess, and at another oppressed honest indus
try; by their , contractions; in abort, that the
mate objects (lir which their privileges were granted
have not beenby fair, faithful andjudicious manage
ment, accomplished ; then their charters should be
suffered.to expire by their: own limitation. The din
coutinnance of such institutions, will promote , the
.pehlidgood, and will be hailed with approbation by
all but` those who for private gain, wrested' them
from tbe purpose for which they were established."
A telegraphic despatch from Montreal, dated July
4th, says: 4 . All is gloom Imre, in consequence of
the news from England,
_and there can be no ques
tion that the blow , has been finally given to British
connetion as far as the Saxon population are con
ce'rned.7, They feel bitterly the insulting reply to
Sir. Allan McNab, and the general tone of the Eng

At Alton, 111., the cholera has broken out badly;
on the first day there: were three deaths, and five
were reported next morning. Mrs. Baillache, wire
of the editor of the Alton Telegraph, was among the
number. At Alton, there is great excitement in
consequence of some 2,000 emigrants, among whom
is the principal mortality, being now landing week
ly—arid the regular inhabitants were hurrying away.
The St. Louis Union of the 29th ult., says: We
saw a proposition, yesterday, to which many signa
tures of respectable merchants were appended, to
close all kinds of business, throughout our city, un
til the Cholera might abate. It seems that the sick
are so numerous, that the time of those well, should,
in future, be-occupied in nursing them, cud allevia
ting the horrors of the disease. We know not what
to say about - the propriety of this suggestion, but are
inclined to'believe it might prove useful.

at Boston on last Thursday :
ENGLAND
CkromA.—On the 19th ult., in the House of .
Lords;Lord Broughani made a long speech in sup
port of the foll Owing fesolutions, viz:
"That by an act passeCin the Parliament of
Canada, entitled'iAtiact to provide for the indem
nification of parties in. Lower Canada, whose prop
erty was destroyed during the rebellion in the,
years 1837 and 1338,' no security is afforded
against compensation for losses sustained in the re;
hellion in Canada, in. 1837 and 1838, being given
to persons engaged in . the said rebellion.
"That it is just and , necessary, either by recom
mending a further and amending bill.to the Legis
!attire of Canada, or by such other means as may
be effectual, to provide security against any com
pensation for losses sustained m the aid rebellion
being given to persons engaged in , orhaying aided
or abetted the same."
Earl Grey replied at considerable length, and
wound , up , by saying that, "so far from its being
true that if their lordshipsopted th is resolution
they.would throw oil on t e troubled waves, and
produce a calm on the ex& ed ocean - of Canaditm
politics, it was his firm : co viction that, by paising
fl
such a resolutiort, they Wou d shake that, confidence
which all parties cherished -in the - system of gov
ernment now happily established there_ , _ and lead
them to suppose-that they were not to be allowed
to deal in a manner which should be satisfactory
to themselves, with matters of domeatic and inter
nal concern. His conviction was that to
come to "such a decision would be a dangerous
blow to the security of the Canadian government.
It was on those grounds that he trusted their lord
ships would `Concur with him in refusing an assent
to the resolution of the noble and learned lord."
Tan Pilsen Movsarsyr.—There are at present
1,132 petitions (signed by 204,205 persons) lying
on the table of the. House of Commons, praying the
House to promote the formation between the Brit

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY
The Vienna Zeitung, of June 13th publishes an
official bulletin of the victory which the Ban of
Crotia has gained over" the Hungarians, It ap
pears that the Ban left Tittel early on the sth of
June, and marching at the head of eight brigades,
horses and foot, advanced to the Roman entrench
ments, where he proceeded to dispose of his troops
in advantageous positions. On the 7th an Hun
garian army of 13 battalions, horse and foot, and
three Latteries, came -down upon him; and in the
engagement which ensued, it is supposed that the
Hungarians fired their artillery. WO high, for none
of their balls took effect. The Aistrian artillerY
on the contrary did great execution in the Hun
garian ranks;, so much so, indeed, that the Impe
rialist Gen. Oettinger was enabled to make a cal,"
airy attack, break through their line of battle, and
cause the precipitate flight of the dismayed Mag
yars. Two of their battalions were literally cut
to pieces. The -Hungarians had• 500 killed, and
220 dangerously wounded; most of the latter were
sacrificed to the passions,of the infuriated Imperi
alists; in short the loss of the Magyars, as given
by the Wiener Zeitung, is no less than 1,500 kill
ed while so wonderful were the rnanceuver of Gen.
Oettinger, that only two Imperialists were killed
and 10 or 12 wounded.
2486
Our correspondent is at a loss how to account
for the disproportion of the killed and wounded in
the two hostile camps; and he presumes, with a
great show of probability, that the Efungariaps
must have been surprised, and that what Baron
Jellachich calls a battle, was, in fact; a butchery
—that is to say, killing without resistance, being
offered. We are not, however,unmindful of the
fact, that the ominous number f ..two killed" has
often before figured in the lnaperialist bulletins,
and that it was made to cover the loss of thou
sands.
Vienna papers state that the Hungarian minister
of ecclesiastical affairs, has published a form of
prayer, to be offered in all churches, for the tn.
umph of the Hungarian cause, in which it is said
of the Russian invaders, that the come "to annia
hilate liberty, independence and faith,-to enslave
the people add carry them off into bondage --to
desecrate churches and holy places—to murder the
aged and the young, and force the chastity of wo
men," &c. The head of the Hungarian church
has moreover instructed the clergy to preach -a
crusade against the Russians, to make the war an
object of rsligion and of duty,- and to tell the peo
ple to take all they have and withdraw into the
interior of their country, and thence to make war

trian camp a messenger from Kossuth, who brought
a message to Gen. Haynau admonishing him , that
if any more Hungarian prisoners were executed,
the most distinguished Austrian officers captured
by the Magyars would be put to death by way of
reprisal.
DEPARTURE O'R Two OF TRX STATE Paxson.Ens
—Dublin, June I6.—The sentence of ten years'
transportation haffibeen at length carried into of
feet upon Mr. John Martin and Mr. Kevin O'Dogher
ty, the editors respectively of the Irish Felon and
Tnbune newspapers. This morning at 5i o'clock
a single covered vehicle conveying the governor
of the convict prison depot, arrived at the gates
of the Richmond Penitentiary. That official was
the bearer of the warrant of the - Irish Executive,
for the delivery of the bodies of Johnilartin and
Kevin lied O'Dogherty. Soon after a body of
mounted police arrived, accompanied by the black
cart, or prison van, which with its escort, entered
the prison gates drew up in the inner yard. The
query was then Put if the prisoners were ready.--- :
The reply was that they were asleep, and that
they would then be roused. So secret were all the
arrangements kept, that none of the public had
the least intelligence of the intended removal of
the two prisoners. At about 6i o'clock, Mr.
Martin issued from his cell, and stood in the pris
°when prepared for departure. He bade a kindly
farwell to the governor and officials, and warmly
shook hands with one or two gentlemen who were
present. O'Dogherty then came out dressed as if
for travelling. Mr. Martin expressed himself as
in good health, but there appeared a peinftil short
ness in his breathing, and his cheeks seemed flush-
Mr. O'Dogherty looked in rather delicate health,
but both maintained 'a sad but firm bearing. As
they stood in the halia side door opened, and Mr.
Smith O'Brien stood in the doorway,'having come
from his cell to bid farwell to his fellow prisoners,
perhaps forever. This scene was soon over, and
turning away from the door, which closed again
on their friends, the two prisoners announced them
selves ready. Mr. IVl'Manus came down also, and
wished to remain to see them depart, but this privi
lege was not allowed him. He took his brief and
painful adue, and returned to the solitude of his
prison. After some delay in getting fixed the few
articles of baggage belonging to the prisoners, the
van with its escort, issued from the prison gates,
where it was met by nearly a regimentof dragoons
—the advanced peril with loaded carbines, and
the rest with swords drawn. Mr. O'Ferrall,
spector of police, was present. The cortage set off
at a gallop along the Circularroad, skirting the
city, and struck in on the Kingstown highway at
Baggot street Bridge, and thus at a rapid pace pro
ceeded to Kingstown, where, we understood, the
Trident war steamer was awaiting the arrival of
the prisoners, with ordera to proceed, after having
received them on board, to Cork Harbor, where
she will land the prisoners at Spike Island.

By the last arrival we had notice that alat
disturbance had broken out at - Lyons. The fo llow
iog detail!, are obtained from the papers by the Ca
nada: - -
"On the morning of Jane 15th a post oflso or
200 men at the &ore Veterinaire was 'didirmed .by
the insurgents. It appears that the soldiers had been
persuaded-that the government had been overthrown
•and they gave up their arms voluntarily, and'partly
joined the insurgents, whose number woe farther in
creased by several pupils of 'the Veterinary School.
The fighting'first commenced at 11 o'clock, Oak
Bernardino,. The affair began,. by the insurgentai
who.came to disarm the post ef. the Bernardinds.
The soldiers then fired on the people, who cried out
treason.. They dispersed "at once with cries of "To
arms."' The team was '-ficiunded, and barricades
were'commenced in the Grand Rue and several ad
jacent streets.' A determined - firefrom the windows
and roofs of houses was itt the sa me.time commenc
ed against the soldiers occupying th'e barracks of the
Bernardinea, who replied at first with musketry,and
then with cannon, tearing the houses of the Grand
Blace and the Grand Rue.'"
Thisstato of things continued till 2 o'clock, P. M.
when a column of infantry, about.2,soo,atrong, sup
ported by eight pieces of artillery, and headed by
Gen. Magnum, turned the hillocks ofla Crois • Rouse
by the quays orate Saone. The column will ,recei=
.ved with a fire of musketry from the houses and the
'Grande Place of the Crt)ix Rouse. This was waiver
ed by the firing of cannon from the troops.
-;The
.sqoare was then occupied, the barricades attacked,
and successively carried, alter considerable resist
ance. Several officers were killed and wounded,
among whom the colonel and three captains of the
seventeenth.'
The insurgents, whose mats was dins broken, took
refuge In the gnarlier de, la Boricle,..formed a bard
cade there at the foot of a rising bill, and a seeped
lower down. At five in the evening a battalion of
infantry, accompanied by a detachment ofdragoons,
attacked and carried them. Other solitary barricades
divers parts of Lyons, were carried by the troopi,
which occupied the city in its entire surflite. On
the 16th the town and - suburbs were quiet. It is
maculated that the insurgents lost 150 dead and
wounded, and 850 prisithenq and the troopa 60 dead
.and wounded.
During the whole of the night after the combat,
:Lyons was occupied militarily. The night puled
over with the utmost calm, and everything on Satur
!day appeared to imply that the , tranquility then-ex
.
istng would, not betrouhled.
The news from the surrounding. departments is
perfectly reassuring. Marseilles,Avignon, Valence,
St. Etienne, Gregoble and Chalon, are tranquil. At
Vienne an wasmade to raise.arricades, but
they were at once overturned Without a single shot
being fired. Troops were arriving at Lyons from
all sides, but their aid is "unnecessary.
M. VAlton Shee departed for Brussel' in the eve
ning of the lath, under the name of a stoker of the
Northern Railroad, whose costume he bad borrowed.
The Socialist ex-peer actually performed that din.
greeable office. The former questor of the National
Assembly, M. Degoussee, and several "friends of
the Constitution," were pawiengers in: the .samo
train.
A search, made by the police in the apartment of
a lady named Lecomte, led to the discovery of im
portant political documents belonging to M. Felix
- Pycii; which were conveyed to theparguet of the A
ttorney General. The counting-house. of M. Ledru
Rollin, at Nontenay aux-Rosen was also searched,
and fOund to contain anna, ball,cartridges, gtuippw
der, and warlike *form of every description.
Tl.e accounts received from the departments, an..
flouncing the maintenance of public tranquility and
the complete defeat of the insurgents at Lyons, pre
duced a considerable effect on the Bourse taday, in
raising the price of public securities. The Fireper
cents opened at 87f. , 60c., to 88f. 30c., and closed at
87f. 90c.

On the 14th, an Austrian vessel arrived at Mareeil-'
les, from Trieste, having on board 185 prisoners of
war, moat of them Poles, ordered to be transported
to New York, but she bad scarcely got out to sea
when the prisoners insisted on being taken to Mar
seilles, and the captain, having only eight men under
his commud, found himself forced to obey, but, on
her coming into port, she Prefect ordered the ship to
Toulon, there to wait thetirders or the government
as to the final destination of the prisciners.
POLAND.,
The Augsburg Gazette of the 16th June, is inform
ed that the greater part of the Ru ss ian, &anis and-
dealt halted on thelOth on their march to the south,
and it is even said that a party of the Guards who
had reached - the environs of Kowno have returned
by forced marches to St. Petersburgh.
The Poles assort that the cause of this counter..
march Is that a conspiracy" had been discovered at
St. Petersbargh and Moscow.
It appears certain that the expedition to Italy was
to be reinforced by from 3000 to 4000 men, under
the orders of Gen. Juan Zabala, who, on his arrival,
will take command of all thecavairy.
importeaat—il New Republic.
The Seven Northern Suttee, comprising the Sierra
Madre bare issued a solemn declaration of indepen
dence,. containing in the preamble the precise words
of our own declaration of independence, and spec
tying in nine reasons, why they dismember from the
Mexican Republic.
They say that the hiatory of the present and past
Governments of Mexico is a history of repeated in
juries and usurpations, all having in direct object the
establishment of an absolute tyranny over these
,
States. To prove this, they submit to therwarld a
candid detail of the injuries they have sneered, and
close their declaration in these energetic terms:
" We, therefore, the public, of these,seiren North.
ern States oftheSierralladre of Merico,,appeafing
to the Supreme Judge of the. World for the rectitude
of our intentions, solemnly publish and declare
" these United States are free and - independent.;"
that they are absolved from rill allegiance to the
Mexican Government, and that all connexion which
has ceased, is, and ought to be, totally, dissolved. .
Consequently, as free and independent- States,.
they have full powertalevywar, contract alliances,
establish cornmerce, and to' do all:-other acts and
things which tree and independent states may of
rightdo, And for the support of this declaration f
with a firm reliance on Divine Providence, we, The
people, mutually ple4ge.t.o each other our livesiour
fortunes x and our unreel
" Our swords are .
drawn! The scabbards' are
thrown away.!_

general health and prosperity prevailed in Liberia.;
The Laura, which sailed from'New Orleans in.Tanu,

passage 14 emigrants, who died with the Cholera.,,
There had not been any case of cholera among them
after they reached _Liberia.
The authorities of Liberia have broken up the
slave factories at New _Cess and Trade Town. A
volunteer caps of 400" men were raised for the pup.
pose, and the commander oftho French war steamer
Espon offered his vessel to carry the troops down 'to
New Zeta. The slavers had armed a large native'
force, who attempted "to prevent the Liberia troops
from landing ; but a few ,hello fired from the French
steamerkept'them off until the Liberians effected 4 a
landing and formed upon the shore. They soon
routed -the slaver and all his allies. The Spaniard
, .
who owned the factory, seeing what would be the
result, set fire to his gstabliehment with his own hand:
and then fled on his horse into the bash, and so es
caped. The troops liberated about 30 slaves, and
destroyed the immense wall which surrounded his
premises.
This expedition . cost the government of Liberia a
very large sum for them -7-probably , from $BOO3 to
$10,000.' • - •

The legislature held an extra session in February,
at which the treaty with. Great Britain-was ratified,
and some other important business attended to. -
The Liberia Herald, after alluding to the recogni-,
Lion of their independence by England and. France,
says : “We wait with no little anziety to hear what
