The steamer Hibornia, Capt.StoiiB, arrived
t Halifax yesterday afternoon, with 79 pas
sengers Tor New York and 22 for Halifax.
The celebrated steamer Great Britain has
been purchased by JMr. Gillings, of London,
and is to be fitted out to run between Liver
pool and New York.
ACCIDENT TO THE STEAMER UNITED
STATES.
The steamer United States arrived at Liver
pool just as the Hibornia left when 24 hours
out from New York she struck on a south
shoal off Nantucket, where she remained for
four hours, and threw overboard 70 tons of
coal ; she subsequently damaged one of her
boilers, so much as to render it useless for
the remainder of the passage. She will un
dergo the necessary repairs at Liverpool. .
Cholera in England and France.
The cholera has again appeared in Erg
land, and several cases have occurred in
Manchester and other parts of the country.
At Paris the Cholera is making the most
' frightful havoc even more so than in 1837.
Upwards of 11,000 deaths have already oc
curred, and in one day there were about 900
cases and 600 deaths reported. Marshal
Bugeaud and many other persons of emi
nence have fallen before the scourge.
It has broken out anew in Silesia, Yienna
.and Presburg, and is raging most fearfully at
Alexandria and Cairo in Ejrypt.
ENGLAND.
The Navigation Laws Repudiation by fe
British Government of French Interfc-
renct in Roman Affairs.
The bill for the abrogation of the Naviga
tion Laws passed the House of Lords without
material amendment, on the 12th, and has
received the royal sanction. The bill will
go into effect in January.
The disabilities bill was passed by the
House of Commons by a majority of 56 Its
success in the House of Lords was considered
very doubtful.
The British Government repudiates all
cognizance or sanction of the proceedings of
the French in their treatment of the Romans.
Smith O'Brien, through his counsel, denies
the legality of the comtnutation of his sen
tence of death to transportation, and the go
vernment have to provide for this unlooked
for difficulty by special act of Parliament.
Different and apparently reliable state
ments are made from parts of Ireland to the
effect that the potato rot has made itsappear
anc in some instances, but generally the vines
look vigorous.
The weather is represented as continuing
very favorable, and the crops in nearly all
parts of England and Ireland are said to look
unusually promising.
In the debate in Parliament upon the Can
adian losses bill, Mr. Gladstone interposed a
most furious opposition to the measuje, and
his remarks are said to have made a marked
impression in the House. He contended that
on the passage of the bill involved imperial
as well as local considerations, and that its
provisions were at variance with the honor
and dignity of the crown.
FRANCE.
Insurrection in Paris.
On Wednesday an incipient insurrection
was attempted in Paris by about 25.000 of
the Mountain party, headed by M. Ettienne
Arago, Jr., and was suppressed by the troops,
lnhnaa ri 11 m V111 r Dmniinln.l n 1C W .-.... I
attempts were made to erect barricades. In
the evening the Assembly declared itself en
permanence, and passed a decree declaring
Paris in a state of seige.
On Thursday the alarm had considerably
subsided, and business which, was entirely
suspended the day previous, was generally
resumed.
At one time the peril was imminent, and
nothing but the courage and prudence of the
President, aided by firmness and sagacity,
prevented the most serious consequences.
Numerous arrests have taken place, inclu
ding several members of the Assembly, M.
Arago and Ledru Rollin being among them.
The last accounts report a state of tran
quility, but there was an uneasy feeling afloat
that a renewed attempt would be made to
upset the Government, and that when it
comes to the point, the troops will not prove
steady.

From Rome we learn that the French army
commenced the attack on the 30th ult., and
after a sanguinary engagement, in which tha
Romans lost 800 men, succeeded in carrying
icvcral important posts.
A series of attacks have since taken place,
in which the victory fs vnrionslv stated, but
in which the invading army, has suffered

The French presses publish conflicting re
ports of the operations of the army, but from
accounts, received to the 5th instant, it is
clear that Gen. Oudinot had not then gained
access to the city, though he had gained a
position at the north of. Rome, which would
enable him to command the city. i !
The latest despatch from Gen. Oudinot is

Proclamation from the Russian General tJ

The Russian General has issued a Procla

is. that if they do not lay down their arms
and submit to their fate with a good grace,
they will be made to feel the consequences
of their presumption.
Every effort is being made to rouse the

THE CANADIANS.
A letter from Toronto, published in the
Rochester (N. V.) Democrat, thus speaks of
the feeling of the people of Canada.
1 believe the lime to have arrived tyhon
annexation could be effected, if it depended
upon tho majority of Canadians. I have
come to this conclusion by mixing with all
classes of society, and by close observation.
You cannot enter tho house of any well in
formed man in Canada, and broach the sub
ject of politics, but annexation is spoken of as
cure for all our present misfortunes, and
tho fact is, that until wo have annexation,
e shall have no peace, no prosperity nor
safety in this Province.
A Montreal correspondent of the New l ork
Tribune some time since said, "My impres.
sion is that in three vears hence Canada will
be a portion of your Republic. The British
portion of our people are most eager for an
nexation." He might have said that the
hole population are eager for it, French as
el! as British, as the fact of there being
two French newspapers in the Lower Pro-
ince now canvassing the question will bear
me out. I he (act is, there are not more
than three-fourlhs of the population of this
Province who would at this present moment
sign a petition to be annexed. The ball,
however, is not yet set in motion, but when
it is, and I hope and trust it may bo shortly,
ou will see that it is not a political question,
but the general wish of the Province, (ex
cept a few of those who have once lived in
the States, and have found it convenient to
leave.) We shall, however, obtain it quietly,
and without appeal to brute force, the fact
being that no one would need forcing we
will do it by petition, by vote; it will be
mado a question at the next hustings, and
members will then be returned who are fa
vorable to annexation. We will accomplish
it by any means which we can we cannot,
will not live as we are ; we aro too far from
the Mother Country, and to become an Inde
pendent Republic we live too near one who
las and will continue to have very great ad-
outages over us. We must therefore bo an
nexed, and bo the means of adding a few
more stripes and stars to the glorious banner
of the Republic."
Toronto, June 17.
Official notice has been published, under
direction of the Slate Treasurer, that the
notes of the Bunk of Susquehanna county, the
Honesdale Bank, and the West Branch Bank,
will not be received in payment of tolls due

Marshall Bugeaud died of Cholera, at
Paris, on the 10th ult. The President of
France, a few weeks since, wished to make
him the first minister of France. His last
advice to Louis Napoleon is said to have been
"get out of this Italian business as fast as
you can, and make war on Austria." The
Marshall began his military career as a sim
pie soldier. Ho received his promotion as
corporal on tho field of Austerlitz. He was

CELEBRATION OF THE 4th OF Jl XV.
The anniversary of the birth day of our
Independence was celebrated pretty much
as usual lor the last four years, in this
place, viz : by Sunday School parties.
The Presbyterians, Lutherans, German Re
formed and Episcopalians had pic nics in
the woods, or groves in the neighborhood
of the Borough. The Methodists held
theirs at the church, and enlivened the day
in the morning and evening with orations
and scenic representations, by a number of
the girls and boys, which were said to be
highly entertaining. In the evening there
was a small display of fire works in the
front of MY. Perkins' Hotel. The weather
was fine, excepting a very slight shower in
the afternoon, and the day passed off to the
apparent satisfaction of all parties concern
ed. fX" Gen. Tom Thumb visited this place
on Saturday, and remained here until Mon
day morning, when he left for Northum
berland. His levees on Saturday were
well attended. not less than 00 or 600
persons having been present, all having
been gratified by the performances of the
renowned lilliputian General.
O" ILuivkstinu. Our farmers have in

CAUSE AND EFFECT.
The success which has attended the erec
tion of the Lancaster Cotton Factory has
served as a stimulant to arouse the ener
gies of some of the neighboring towns, and
efforts are now making at various places to
establish the loom and the spindle. Lan
caster city, though located in the midst of
the richest and best agricultural districts in
the Union, has been for ten or fifteen years
past almost stationery ; scarcely any im
provement of any kind being visible.
About two years since a large Cotton mill
was established. Its success induced the
commencement of another which is finished
and about being put into operation. And
now within a few weeks, they have con
cluded upon erecting the third. The re
sult of all this is that new life and vigor has
been infused among her citizens, and five or
six hundred houses will be erected in the
course of the present year.
The Farmer, Merchant, Mechanic and
Laborer, all will be benefitted. What a
beautiful commentary is this upon the
croakings of those political juglers, who
through prejudice and ignorance look upon
and condemn all Manufacturers, as inimical
to the interests of the people.

THE FOREIGN NEWS,
The late accounts are of a gloomy charac
ter in some points, but encouraging in others.
France is far from being quiet. The strug
gle between republicanism and monarchy, or
rather between honest men and knaves, still
continues, and must end in the complete tri
umph of one and the complete defeat of the
other. Compromise is impossible. France
was thoroughly corrupted by the administra
tion of the Bourbon and Orleans dynasties
after the overthrow of Napoleon. Its govern
ing classes are asthoroughly profligate bs they
were in 1789, and will probably need a puri
fying process of similar character. The re
publicans or monarchists must fall, and for
ever. If the monarchists prevail, and the
rest of Europe becomes Cossack, we shall a
bandon all hope of European regeneration.
The night of the middle ages will return, and
continue for centuries But they will not pre
vail. The seeds of liberty are too widely
and deeply sown in European soil for exter
mination ; and though the struggle will be
bloody, tho republicans will triumph. And
when they do, they must "provide new guards
for their future security." They must punish
their tyrants and betrayers, not only for
warning, but for safety, We oppose the
punishment of death, and would not follow
the example of the reactionists in restoring
the guillotine. But we do say that the peo
ple of Europe will not be safe from wars,
bloody wars against human rights, till every
one of the present race of kings or pretenders
to thrones is either executed for murder, or
exile, compelled to earn his bread by the
sweat of his face. And if these few dozens
of tyrants, who have caused rivers of blood to
flow for the acquisition or maintenance of un
just power, were all executed together, would
anything more than justice be done 1 The
surrender to the hangman of each loyal life
would save thousands, tens of thousands of
innocent people, from a premature and bloody
grave.
According to these accounts, the French
assembly had resolved, by a solemn vote, to
crush the liberties of the Romans, and the
commander of the French army at Rome,
receiving orders according to this vote, had
attacked that people with fire and swoid.
The iron leaves of European history are red
with every imaginable crime; and no deed
wonld astonish us, when ordered by European
monarchists. But of all the crimes which
stain those bloody annals, nothing equals in
atrocity this war of France against the Ro
mans. The plunder and ext inction of Poland
was bad enough. But it was the work of
hereditary despots, and the war was waged
egainst a tyrannical feudal aristocracy, and
imposed no new burdens on their slaves.
The Austrian assault upon the ancient rights
of Hungary was wicked. But it was the
work of a despotic government, attempting
to consolidate and equalize its heterogenous
empire. But the war of Franca upon Rome
has not a shadow of excuse. It is a war of
unmitigated wickedness. It is a crusade
against the rights of an unoffending nation,
merely because they have chosea to emanci
pate themselves from the paralyzing despo
tism of a corrupt political priesthood J and it
is wagad by a government founded on that
very republicanism which tha Romans have
chosen, and yet reeking with the blood of a
JOURNAL.
revolution against monarchy, tt is an act of
blasting, damning infmy( which every
Frenchman should be made to feel, in one
universal burst of indignant scorn from tho
friends of human rights throughout tho cWll
ized world. If the French people do not rise up
against this enormitv as they did afainst their
late monarchy, and d rive its authors out of their
country, or visit them with exemplary pun-
ishment, they are unworthy of liberty, even
Of nationality, and deserve to be enslaved
and trodden out of national existence by the
iron heel of Russian despotism. If they tole
rate this, France and infamy, Frenchman
and villain, will hereafter be synonimous
terms among honest men of all countries
But while the accounts from Europe are
thus gloomy, they still exhibit some shades
of hope. The French republicans had risen
in the rilv of Rheims. about 70 miles trom
Paris, and were ready to rise in tha latter,
The executive, violating the constitution, and
apparently bent on crushing republicanism,
had suppressed all the republican newspa
pers excepting one, and arrested some of the
leading republicans in the assembly. Ap
pearances indicate another contest; nnd if
such an awful calamity comes, may Heaven
enable the republicans to drown the last
hopes of monarchy in the blood of traitors !
We would gladly learn that the sword were
still sheathed. But if it must be drawn, let
it hew down the plotters against human
rights, even to the last. Better for the fu
ture is the slaughter of the guilty, than of
the innocent ; and if nothing but the blood
of the guilty will save tho innocent, let it
flow to the last drop. Tho accounts from
Southern and Southwestern Germany are en
couraging. The republicans were in the field,
in earnest, preparing for the inevitable con
flict The Hungarians were still victorious,
though we have yet received no accounts of
decisive movements. But as they have al
most annihilated the power of Austria, we
have hope in their power to stem the barba
rian torrent from Russia. But the most
cheering news is the victory, though par
tial, of the Romans over tho most criminal
the most shameless of their invaders, the
French. Tho Romans were resolved to fight
to the last ; and we hups that they will hold
out till retribution shall visit the present base
government of France.
With these accounts before us, we again
call upon our citizens tor some demonstra
tion in favor of the Romans. And especially
do we call upon the French in the United
States to exhibit, by some public profession,
their condemnation of the present perfidious
and reactionary French executive, in waging
an unholy war against the republicanism of
Rome. If the French population of tho Uni
ted States, who profess to be republicans, and
who loudly, and we doubt not sincerely, ut
tered public rejoicings for the emancipation
of their country from monarchy, can behold
this enormous crime against Roman republi
canism without a public expression of disap
probation, they deserve to be shunned by
every American with unmitigated scorn.
But we have better hopes of them and their
country. Their duty to the liberty of their
Fatherland requires them to raise their voices,
loud enough to be heard at home, against
this infamous outrage upon republican Rome.

such ridiculous mistakes should occur, but
when ignorance nnd excitement aro united,
who can tell what follies may ensue? A
tendency to diarrlina unquestionably exists,
the consequence of the season, and of the
somewhat peculiar weather; but this tenden
cy, if watched, and taken in time, yields
easily to proper medicines. We have not
yet heard of a single death, in which the
victim had not been either imprudent in
eating, in attire, or in neglecting a disordered
state of the bowels. Lrd-zer.

Legislature are to be selected, permit mo to
recommend to tha voters of Northumberland
county, the name of Mr. MICHAEL M.
SUPER, of Shamokiu township for that office.
Mr. Soper is a farmer and is well known to
the democracy of this county, as a firm and
consistent detnoci.it. He is a man of good
moral character and of that plain practical
sense that would render him well qualified
to represent tho sturdy democracy of old
Northumberland county in the next legisla
ture. Should he receive the nomination, it
would be gratifying to
Manv Democrats.
