Where comma ce is to be carried on, and impost# col leeted, there must he porta and harbors, as well aswhaifs and custom h-tuaea. If ships, la tansii with valuable cargoea, approach the shore, or sail along the cossl, light houses sre neceasery at suitable points for the piotection of life and pro perty.

The French Republic. * Opening qf the Assembly—The Message of the Piesident—An Army of Observation.— The Legislative Assembly has re-asrembled. The proceedings in the Assembly were unimf ortant. The minority are very well dispoeod towards the government, and the message has greatly pacified the opposition. On Wednesday the 43th inst., in his offi cial documen , Louis Na|>oleori has commit ted himself to facta and principles foreign to the alleged tendency ot his ambition, and considers it more politic to stand by the rev olutinu, in its integrity, tlan to make a movement which, failing in its intent, would throw power into the hands of legitimists. He professes his obedience to the law and the constitution of France. The industry ol ihe country is invested in trade and maim* tactures, and its eontetitediiess was implied in the absence of any sigiiillicant agitation. The President dwells on the condition ol the finances, the state of the army and navy, the nature of foreign relations, and hence that the time has arrived for the cousidera lion of the principles of free trndo. For himself, Louis Napoleon disclaims personal ambition, and invites the Assembly to rid Itirn of power in consolidating Ihe constitu tion. The message is a very satisfactory one. The President premises to conform to the will of the people. There were about six hundred members present at the opening of the Assembly, and .ri. Dupin was elected President of llin Chambers by a considerable majority. While England is alarmed at the introduction of one cardinal, France rejoices al the elevation of three Frenchmen lo that honor. England. 7 be Catholic M ovement tn England—Speech of the Hon.

( ON the first of January next, commen ces a New Series of this copious, com nreheiisive anil elegantly primed Family Newapap-r, which is now- acknowledged to lie the indis|>eiiNihle drawing room gazette of the country. A home is hardly compl-te i we Wink we may safely venture to say, 1 without 'tie Home Journal, which is the Chronicle of all that interests all classes of Society, and of the intelligence which most enlivens an American Home. New- York is the great centre, and here, at the fountain head of nnvclty, incident, litera ture, and foreign news, the Home Journal is printed and published. Its editor*. (Geo. P Morris and N. P. Willie.) devote their entire time, skill, and expeiieme, to the ta-k of giving, each week, every thing worth knowing. They particularly keep an eye on all the whims and noveltiea of New ) ork society, presenting sketches of the ; Ili-lles ol our time, and careful portraits of J the distinguished public characters. In ad- 1 dit'Oii tr. this, the utmost pains are taken, by translations from French journals, and by loreign correspondence, to prepare such re ports of the la-hionuble Gossip of pari*, as will exceedingly instruct and umuse. We present nur readers, thef eft and out mas cfaU neus lit our literary department, we aiin m sketches and > entails crtlnism, and tu our ciiiidensutions of the fecund productions of the vast newspaper world of England, we aim to avoid the tiresome, and the local, and transfer to our columns the pick of English information and brilliancy, while we endeavor to select with a true sense of pure macule, true u-iI and genuine humour. In addition to the above, we propose to give in the course ol tne coming volume, one en• lirely new feature. which we think will par ticularly interest the L ultes, viz:—A SERIES OF RETURNED I.OV E LETTERS. This being a species of composition that inter ests all readers, we trust to make the num bers of the Home Journal more eagerly looked for, and more carefully preserved than pver We have also new correspondents iu London and Paris, who will send us much that could never reach us through foreign journals. As a New Year's Present Iroin a Gentleman to a Ladv, the Home Journal is one, ol which the remembrance is renewed every week, and it is unsurpassed as a gift in good taste.
