■ " ENGLAND. * .
The following' is tho substance of the royal speech:
.'“Her Majesty wilt announce, that sho has re
ceived most friendly asrurances from foreign powers,
and is gratified to know-thal peace has been restored
in.thoso States in the North of .Europe, so lately
either engaged in war or preparing to: comafbnce
hostilities. The Queen will then congratulate the
member# of both Houses on the tranquility which'
protoils, not only at. homo, but in -all.her foreign
possessions and colonies the people arc contented
and happy* The manufacturers are in active em«
ployment, and commerce is abundant and prospet*
one; while the revenue is in excess of expenditures.
Her Majesty regrets that in some, countries agricul
ture is depressed, but trusts it will be only tempo
rary. . ■ i) . .
Since Parliament last met the Queenregrets that
considerable excitement has been naturally occas
stoned by:&n aggrcssivo proceediogon the part oi
the head of the Roman Catholic Church, who had,
without seeking.or obtaining permission, presumed
to bestow territorial titles on ecclesiastics, and to
distribute the country into Diocessos.
: Her Majesty would direct' attention to the trade
with Brazil, v and soggests the desirableness of ar
ranging the Sugar trade with that country.*’
This speech is more than usually vogue, and re*
markable for a studied evasion of the irritating to
pics. There is no alluslpn .’Whatever to financial
matters bevond -the customary promises of docu
ments,&c., being hid before the Legislature; and
.the reference to the papal aggression is of the mildj
est kind, as if she was desirood to pass over, as
mildly as possible, a disagreeable question. The
course adopted, you may rely on it, is wise and
politic.
There fans been a debate in the French Assembly, i
prolonged from the 16th.to.ihe 18tb ult., in which
tho conduct of the President and the Ministry have
been severely handled. Tho debate arose upon the
motion of M. Remnsat. The Ministers, Gen, Cav«
ignac, Changarnier, Thiers, Lamartine and other
membors, spoke. The conclusion at which M.
Thiers arrived, was, ihat a vole favorable to the
Government Would be equivalent to lhe establish.:
raentof the Empire. Immediately at the rising o!
the 'Assembly the Ministers went to Elyseeand
placed their resignations in.the hands of the Presi
dent, which were accepted by the President on the
9th uit. 1 v ■
The Constitutional of tbe2Qth says “ that the
Ministry will ho formed from the ranks of the, 278]
who voted against St. Bcure’s amendment.” 1
A.cbnspiracy has been discovered, and the Police,
at an unexpected moment, entered the house where
their.meetings were held, and some 3& were ar
rested and 25 more were subsequently taken.—-|
They were all delegates of the Socialists or Drill-j
ing Societies. A Proclamation lb Lithography, of a
Democratic character, was seixed.
> After the resignation of the newly constructed
French Ministry, M. Leon Faucher was intrusted
with the difficult Usk cr forming the government;
al first he appeared likely to succeed, when all at
onceit waa declared that ho was unable to do so.
Sinco ihca Louis Napoleon has cut the Gordian knot.
Finding it impossible to compose a ministry.of Pari*
•liamentary elements, at liU own disposal, he has
had recourse to the public functionaries who are
not representatives.
! This fact was communicated to the Assembly by
\a message road byM. q»s:loct, Friday,p,
tn. It was av fallows r Pabtic opinion confiding in
tho prudence of the Assembly, and the government
has sot been alarmed by tho isto incidents, never
theless, France begin? to . suffer by divisions which
ehcdoplores, My duly is ao do what io too lies, to
prevent the Hi result of them.
Tbo union of the two powers is indispensable to
the repose of the country, but; the constitution has
rendered them independent of-eich other. The
only condition of this union is reciprocal confidence.
Penetrated with this sentiment I shall always re
spect the rights of the Assembly, while maintain
ing, in fact, the prerogatives of that; power which
should come from the people.
SPAIN.
Wo noticed in outlast that the Cabinet of Narvaez

The account* from Brussels to the ISO) ult. state

gradually sinking unoex the disease, nnul January, 4.84*,•
until I wub again attacked with fever.. My extremities,
c*Decially my feet, wero constantly cola, and almost
lostihcirieeling. Under these circumstances it may
truly said thui I was a living skeleton. I finally deter
mined to quit taking inedicinuprescnbed by physicians;
and try Dr Wiuar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry, and from,
the first week that I commenced taking it I can date a
gradual recovery. I continued its use six months, atthe
end of which time I was cured, and have enjoyed good i
health ever since, and cheerfully recommend the Bal
sam to all those afflicted wuh diseases of the lungs, and
would say to those commencing us use uot to ue die-,
couraged, it two ortbree bottles ao not effect a cure,but
persevere as I have done, and I have no doubt bat nine
cases out often will be blessed with renewed health as

[From Dr. Baker, Spnngheld, Washington co., Ky.]
SpaisorißLD, Ky.,May 14, .
Messrs. Sanford $ Park: 1 take this opportunity of
informing you of a most remarkable cure performed on
me by the use of Dr. Wiatat’s Balsam of Wild Cherry.
In the year 1840 1 was taken wuh tho inflammation
of the bowels, which 1 labored, under tor six weeks,
■wheul gradually recovered. • In the fallof JS4II was
attacked with a severe cold,wluoh seated itself upon
! my lungs,and for the space of three years I was con
i fined to my bed- I tried ull kinds of raedicmes and «ve
i ry variety of aid without benefuj and thus I weaned
i along until the winter of 1845, when 1 heard of Dr. Wiflr
i tar’s Balsam of Wild Cherr>.
My friends persuuded me in give it a trial.- though I
i. had given up all hopes of recovery, and haa prepared
myself for the cbange.of another world. Throaglitheir
solicitations! was induced to make use of the. genuine
!F»«ar 5 $ Balsam of TVtld Cherry. The effect was truly
astonishing. After five ycarSof affliction and suffering,
and after- having spent four or five hundred dollars to nO
Eurposc, ana the best and most respectable physicians
ad proved unavailing,! was soon restored to entire
i health by.the blessing of God, and the mo of Dr. Wis
i taihtßalsamof Wild Cherry.
i . May tho blessing of God rest upon the proprietors of
so valuable a medicine* as Wistaria Balsam of Wild
i Cherry. Yours,respectfully, W.H.BAKER. ,
