The elections in France on the 13th pissed
off without a single violation of good order.

the relative success of parties. No dnnbt is
entertained hut there is a large majority in
favor of peace arid order.
The French expedition to reinstate the
Pope had not effected an entrance into Rome

has not been more successful, having been
defeated in an nttuck on the 15th instant.
The war in Hungary assumed no new fea
ture, tho fighting goes on unremittingly, and
the fortunes of the Hungarians are reported
to be in tho ascendant. They are said to be
within, a few days' march ef Vienna, to
which point tho Russians are passing forward
as rapidly as possible. It is drought that the

by England, may have the ellcct to check
the advance of the Russians.

It is stated that the Danish question is nil

ADDRESS Of THE" CONSTITUENT AS
SEMBLY, The following is the adJrSss of the Con
stituent Assembly of Home to the Govern'
ments and Parliament! of France and Eng'
land:- I
t: The day came when the Prince abandoned
us, and we were loft without Government
all attempts at conciliation failed; messages
and messengers from the Parliament and the
municipality were rejected ; the people await
ing their time with patience, but the emigra
ted Government no longer proffered a single
word of liberty or love ; it stigmatized three
millions of men with the guilt of an indi
vidual, and when we deliberated on employ
ing the only means which remained to us for
constituting an authority which the Prince
had in fact abdicated, the priest pronounced
a malediction upon ut.
"It is well known that our Assembly had
its origin in universal suffrage ; that Assem
bly, exercising of necessity an imprescripti
ble right, decreed the dethronement of the
ocracy for ever, and proclaimed the Repub
lic.
:No one opposed it. Tho only voice of
complaint arose from the theocracy which
wo had overthrown.
"And yet it is to this voice that Europe is
willing lo listen, and seems to forget the story
of our woes, and to confound what lies within
ths province of spiritual authority with that
which is purely temporal.
"Ecclesiastics were exempted by privilege
from appearing before tho civil tribunals,
while Ihe laity were subject to the jurisdic
tion of tho ecclesiastical tribunals, all which
constituted a condition of things so far re
moved from real liberty or civilization, that
any free nation must prefer the alternative of
waging ten wars to enduring a single one of
them. And how can Europe, so often thrown
into commotion by tho sacerdotal power
which launched the thunders of the Church
against her States, how can she expect Ihree
millions of men to submit nt the present day
I'liurch to an authority which not only exercises its
political right of temporal punishment against

Details of the outbreak in Canada were
laid before Parliament on tlio 15th, which
elicited some discussion of no importance,
.beyond tho fncl that the Government evinced
a determination to sustain Lo'd Elgin. Earl
Grey, in alluding to Lord Elgin's dispatch,
said it would show that he acted throughout
with his accustomed judgment, moderation
and good sense, that he was fully prepared
to justify and take the responsibility of any
step of Lord Elgin.
No formal discussion of Canadian affairs
would be had, until after the receipt of later
, intelligence, which reached Liveriool proba

The closing meetings of the National As
sembly were taken up by discussions on the
Italian Qnestion, in which the Ministry iiually
obtained a majority of 38.
It would seem from the statements made
on the subject that M. Odillou Barrot did not
give' any instructions to Gen. Oudinot, re
commending the occupation of Rome at all,
and it had been determined that the expedi
tion should proceed to Civila Yecchia ami
there remain as a moral check on the ad
vance of the Neapolitans and Austrian, and
only march onward in case of absolute neces
sity. The ministry were not, however, unani
mous in this ; and it is feared that General
Oudinot was influenced in his conduct by the
advice of a certain faction, of which M. de
Fuloni is the head.
On Saturday, in reply to an attack by M.
Flocon, it was stated, that bs soon us the go.
vernment heard that Ihe Russians were to ju
' lerfere in Germany,' they wrote at once to
London, St. Petersburg, Berlin, and Vienna.
They considered it a circumstance which
must be deplored. They would endeavor to
annul It ty diplomatic means,' and if they
should fail, the government would then no-
ply lo the National Assembly for its advice
and couuteuauce,
In consequence of a vote of censure by the
" Assembly, M. Leon Fouches, Minister of the
Interior, resigned his portfolio into the hands
of the President, and it said that several
( others ef the present Ministry will resign as
soon as lliey can do so without embarrassing

The apiiearance of this disease in New
York and also in Haiti more and Philadel
phia, has induced the authorities of those
cities to use every precaution against the
spread of the disease. In Philadelphia,
committees have been appointed, whose
duty it is to see that every jtortion of the
rity is kept clean, and that all rubbish and
filth is removed. Cleanliness is conducive
to health under all circumstances, but in
the cholera season especially, it seems al-
solntely necessary.
We do not think it probable that the
cholera will reach us, but of this there is
no absolute certainty, and it would be well
guard against its approach, by removing all
kinds of rubbish or filth, which is calculated
to engender disease by whitewashing and
the free use of lime, and by ventilation or
keeping a free circulation of pure air. If
the cholera should not visit us, these pre
cautionary measures will not be thrown
away,as their beneficial effects will contri
bute to the general health of the commu
nity. We have already noticed the fact that
the town of Columbia, Tennessee, escaped
the cholera in 1832, by the distribution of
lime throughout the town, when the whole
surrounding country was suffering by the
ravages of this tlreaded pestilence. Rut
this was not the only good t fleet. It im
proved the general health of the place and
the fevers and other diseases were less fre
quent and less fatal in their result.
E7 We have been requested to call the
attention of the Rorough officers to the fact
that some of our streets and alleys are not
as clean as they should be. The timely
expenditure of a few dollars, may save to
our citizens a vast deal of expense in the
shape of Doctor bills, and loss of time by
sickness. There is no more healthy loca
tion on the Susquehanna, than Sunbury,
and certainly none that exceeds it in the
mngnitudo and beauty of its scenery. Wo
should therefore be careful, that ils repu
tation does not suffer by carelessness and
negligence.

Rio Janf.iro, April 9th, 1819
Dear Sir: When we arrived thero was
ten or twelve vessels here from the states for
California, they have left, nnd others nre
coming in every day with loads of passen
gers. Thu "Robert Rowne" of New York ar
rived yesterday with one hundred and sixty
passengers, we are next to her in number of
passengers of any in port, having ono nun.
dred nnd forty. This is one of the finest am!
most beautiful bays in the world. On entering
the bay we passed close by tho "Sugar Loaf
Mountain" which is 1800 feet high, and per
feet shape of a sugar loaf. Some of the cmi
grants for California planted an American
Hag on its top. The Einpetor's gardens
about the city are perfect Edens, w here can
be seen every variety of fruits and (lowers,
growing nnd in full bloom. They contain from
30 to 100 acres of land. The botanical gar
den is considered the finest of them nil.
contains over one hundred acres of ground
all laid out with vety handsome walks. It is
8 miles from the city; omnibuses run out to
it, with six mules attached, carrying 12 pas.
sengcrs, for which we payed 24 mill reys.
mill rev is a note worth fifty cents, there are
nothing but mill leys and dumps in circula
lion here, a dump being worth 2 cents. Thi
botanic garden is said to be as handsome as
any one in tho world. These gardens are
free for every person, besides the privilcdge
of plucking such fruits and flowers as we
wish. The Brazilians are very polite on all
occasions towards the Americans. We nre fa.
vorites of theirs, but tho F.nglish they despise
By taking a sail a few miles up the bay,
which we do almost every day, we get into
orchards of orauues and bunu.nias, and fill
our bouts without charge. We intend layin
in a stock of fruit to last us to Valparaiso. -
It is very warm here, thermometer stands on
an average from HO to 90. Sundays tiro the
greatest days for all kinds of amusements,
every kind of business is carried ou as on
any other day. Last night a grand ball came
off, which was got up for the Californians
In the afternoon there was a bull fight, an
a foot race, run by one of our fellows and a
Englishman. This is generally the way Sun
days nre spent in Rio. Tho Emperor anil

bowed to the officer at the door, the officer
leading the way as our chapy supposed to thu
parlors, but he very soon discovered his mis
take by Adding himself on ferra firma. He
was not satisfied with this, and went up and
ried again, the ollicer this time very politely
kicked him down stairs. He was bent on
seeing the Emperor and Empress, therefor
he went and borrowed a black coat and made
his appearance once more, and was admitted.
One chap was put in the guard house for go.
ing with a while vest, and kept there for a
few hours. On entering we made three bows
to the Emperor and Empress, who were seal
ed on the throne. After that we knelt be
fore them and kissed their hands, as they
were placed on the railing. When this cere
mony was over, we had the priviledge of
strolling about the richly furnished halls of
the palace.
Ssoine of the ladies about here were very
pretty, and loaded with jewels. 1 have

are some English and French Indies here
that are very pretty, thu natives being princi

thought very foolishly. I know a number of
fellows on ship now that have not one cent.
Two of our passengers left us here and
startod back foi the states. The Gold Fever
having left them, they then also left. One
was from Cincinnatti the other from Balti
more, both very fine fellows, the father of
the one from Cincinnatti, is a very wealthy
man, worth one hundred and fifty thousand
The captain and mate have been dis
charged by our consul here, Mr. Park. The
charges against the Captain were, ungentle
manly conduct toward the passengers short
allowance of provision ami water when there
was plenty on board ; but the principal one
was for knocking down one of onr fellows a
few times, and putting him in irons, lor get
ting tight. Against the mate for brutal
treatment of sailors. Our new Captain was
a passenger to California on the ship " Apullo,'
from New York. 1 regretted parting with
our old Captain (Brown.) He always treated
me very kindly. He left next day for Phila
delphia. We expect to sail an Thursday and
arrive at Valparaiso in about 50 days, if wo
have good weather off Cape Horn.

The quantity of Coal sent by Rail Road
this week is 42,717,15 by Canal 81,001,14
for the week, 63,718,09.
The trade is now in full operation nnd
the quantity sent this week is greater than
the quantity ever sent to market in any one
week heretofore from Schuylkill Connty.
Both Canal and Railroad nre worked up to
their full average capacity. There was a
considerable ncctnnulution of Boats during
the last week, but wo learn that there is
some probability that they will be scarce the
ensuing week. Min'rt' Jmnmi.
