The most interesting Intelligence brought by thi s arrival, and communicated to WI thiftit the Telegraph, is what relates to the new Constitution of France, which had juin been published at Paris. From the summary of its provisions forwarded toss it *ripening - that President Bonaparte is to be the responsible Governor of the Na tion for ten years; justice is to be dispens ed in his name ; he has the initiative of all haws, and the right to grant pardons ; is dur sontmander of the land and sea forces ; sae &Mare war and make treaties ; is to appoint all public functionaries ; and all who accept public stations are required to take an oath of obedience to the Constitu lion and fidelity to the President. Incase of his death the Senate is to convoke the nation for a new election, the President be ing entitled, however, by a secret deed, to designate such citizens as merit the eon& ; dome of the People. So much for the re public of France ! This Constitution, it I u said, does not give general satisfaetion. This news heretofore communicated by our London correspondent, that Napoleon is about to be married to a Swedish Prin cess. is confirmed. The French papers are filled with ce ments of. the removable of proscribed per tains, who are to be sent to Cayenne.

BURNING OF A BAGGAGE CAR.. -On Fri day morning last, near McVeytown, Hunt ington County. the baggage ear attached to the western train on the Pennsylvania Railroad took fire, and before any thing cinild be removed from it, it was entirely consumed. It contained the baggage of about filly passengers,, together with the mails. It is *Hedged that the fire origina ted from the stove pipe, and that the per sons having the car in charge were asleep at the time ! Among the loaves are the following :---;3lr. George M'Cann, a ped— lar, lost .s trunk full ofgoods and his books, valued at $l5OO. Richard McGrann.

The Washington correspondent of the New York Ex p ress tells the following story of the Russian Minister:—“There is a pretty good story going shout town, which is, in the Main. true, I believe.— During the recent cold weather, Mr. Bo disco, the Russian Minister, rigged out hi, sledge, and hie driver and tiger, and furs, caps, &c., all looking like bears and wolves. So extrrordinary a spectacle at tracted the 'Mention of _the. boysoiegmes, &c., on Pennsylvania Avenue, and as Kos suth was known to be in town, covered all over with monstaches—with ■ retinue rigged out in style extraordinary—the boys and black, set up over Bobisco the cry of .Kossuth !'—'there's Kossuth !I—.hur rah for Kinumth l"Phis was more thin human nature could endure, and Mr. Bo disco fled in a rage, so it is stated.'for ref uge to the house of a friend near by." The following we find in the Prince ton (Ky.) Republican. It describes, in- deed, a very extrordinary occurrence: "On the 29th ultimo a negro woman be longing-to Mr. J. Harpenditig, of this coun ty, got lost in the woods. Mr. H., think ing she had been stolen, offered a reward for her. He heard nothing of her, until the 11th inst. when some boys who were huntiug, found her, apparently dead.— They returned home and informed some gentlemen of the fact. Messrs. B. W. Harpending. E. George, and one or two others went in search of and found her almost covered with snow, and supposing, as a matter of course, that she was dead, one of the party started to get a sled, c hile the others struck up a tire and a waited his return. One of them, wishing to see if decomposition had taken place, touched her with his cane, when, to his astonishment, she slightly moved her head. After applying the usual remedies, she recovered sufficiently to converse with them. She stated that she had not eatenor drank anything but snow since she left home, and bad been out in the weath er all the time—fourteen days. She is in a fair way to recover. When she left home she was very fleshy, but ;viten found was perhaps the most emaciated creature ever seen alive. These facts can be sub stantiated by the testimony of some of the most respectable men of our county. Reli/ARKAIILIt DISCOVIMV ire VIRGINIA.— A letter in the Richmond Times states that a few days ago, while several men were engaged in blasting out limestone near Buchanan, Rottetourt county. they discovered a cave, with an entrance of some six or eight feet in hight, and up wards of one hundred long, with two a partment*. In the first they found some earthen ware and a large stone cross; on the cross there was sonic carving, but was so much defaced by the hand of time that it was scarcely discernable. A number of citizens, with a lantern, subsequently entered the second apartment, where they found a skeleton seated on a huge iron chest, with its back resting against the wail. On opening this chest they found it to contain gold coin, perfectly smooth on one side and a cross with some char acters on it on the other. The gold in the chest by weight is worth seven hun dred and eighty-three dollars. %MONSTRANCE AGAINST TES Mania Law.—The liquor dealers in New York have despatched a remonstrance to Albany, setting forth the reasons why the Maine Liquor Law should not be attempted to be forced upon New York. The proposed law, to that end, is denounced as audacious, unscrupulous, and fanatical, and calculated to retard, rather than advance. even the temperanee priticiple, which it professes to encou rage. Most significant of all, however, the re monstrants assure the Legislature that they are solemnly convinced "that such a des potic and unreasonable law could not be be enforced in the city of New York, ex cept amid scenes of riot and bloodshed, in which, though its reckless advocates would be the first and chief sufferers. vast multi tudes of the populace would be involved, and which would be too frightful in their results fur any but callous fanatics to con template with horror and dismay."

Stevens has greatly improved. lie appeared in Court on Monday and we suppose will re sume his duties at Washington in a few days. The report which was extensively circulated of his dangerous illness last week was an entire mistake. Pr2"The National Intelligeacer of Tues day says :—"We understand that intelli gence of some importance has been receiv ed by the Niagara. Sir Henry Bulwer, who has been expected to return to this country, it is now said will not come, not being in a state of health to encounter a winter voyage. It is probable, therefore, in the absence of another 3linister, that in structions will be given to the very respec table gentleman, Mr. Crampton, the Brit ish Charge d'Affaires, to enter into any negotiations that may become necessary be tween the two countries.

IlrrCongress has been engaged during the last week principally in discussing the doctrine of Non-Intervention—the pro• priety of the abolition of Flogging in the Navy—the disposition of the CensupFrint ing—and the resolutions relative to the Ir ish exiles. The census printing will be worth about half a million dollars, and the question is who shall have the job. Don aldson & Co., of the "Union" office, are fighting hard for it. Boyd Hamilton, the Congressional printer, claims' it; while some members are for giving it out to the lowest bidder. Among the petitions presented, was one from Lieut. Wilkes, of the U. S. Navy, asking an appropriation of $300,000 for an effective exploration of the Artic seas, and a further search for Sir John Franklin. A bill has boon introduced into the House to authorise the publication of the laws of the United States and public ad vertisements in two newspapers of each Congressional district. The additional cost, urged as an objcotiou, is estimated at $BO,OOO. The bill is a good one and ought to pass. The Bill making Land Warrants issued under the act of Sept. 28, 1850, assignable, has passed the House. It had previously passed the Senate, but will have to go back in consequence of amendments made in the House. An effort was made last week in the House to suspend the rules to introduce resolution favorable to a revision of the Tariff of 1546, but the House refused by a decided majority. The prospect* of a change in the Tariff are rather glomy.— The Loco majority is too large. On Tuesday Mr. Cass addressed the Sen ate on the Intervention question. Ile spoke at muck length and very ably, taking strong ground in favor of a declaration, that the people of the United States recognize the great principle of the law of nations, which assures to every nation the right to manage its own internal affairs in its own way, awl to establish, alter or abolish its government at pleasure, without the inter ference of any other power ; and that they have not seen, nor can they a gain see, without deep concern, the viola tation of this principle of national indepen dence. The time had come, (lie said,) for us to speak. We have the right to speak, and our moral obligations of other nations re quire it of us. lie strongly denounced the lute interference of Austria and Russia in the struggle of Hungary for independence. Their real motive and object, no mutter what their language, was to prevent the es tablishment of a powerful free inv. - eminent upon their borders. They were afraid of its influence. The interests of the whole civilized world aemanded that the rights Oiimatious should be respected ; for the in strument of oppression to-day might be its victim to-morrow. He contended that the advice given to the country in the Farewell Address of Washington, was uo longer applicable, be cause our circumstances since then, and our relations and position in regard to other nations, had entirely changed.

It was wholly inexpedient, and•our resources were wholly inadequate to it. The time had not come for that. But it might mane. LEGISLATIVE ITEMS j'icrWe have nothing of particular mo ment to notice in the Legislative Reports of the present week. The Non-Interven tion resolutions of Mr. Kunkle have been under discussion in the Senate, and will doubtless pass both Houses. The Sunbury & Erie Railroad Bill, auth orizing corporations, towns and counties to subscribe stock, has passed both Houses and been approved by the Governor. Its passage was warmly contested. A joint resolution providing for a final adjournment of the Legislature on the 25th of March has been introduced into the Ilodse. No danger, however, of its being adopted. A bill with provisions similar to the Maine Liquor Law was read in the House on Tuesday. Hope it may pass; but fear that the Rum influence at the capitol is too strong to be broken down in the first onset. Whig State Convention. O :7 - The Whig State Convention will will meet at liarrisburg on the 25th of March to select a candidate for Canal Com missioner,lorm an Electoral Ticket and choose delegates to the National Conven tion.

Presentation of a Medal to Mr. Clay. 111=7'The National intelligencer gives an interesting account of the presentation of a costly and highly finished gold medal to Mr. Clay, by a committee of his personal friends of New York city. Daniel Ullman, • Esq., on behalf of the citizens of N. York, addressed Mr. Clay in a brief but impres sive manner, concluding as follows : "All national medals, hitherto struck in this country, have been commemorative of the triumphs of American arms, but "Peace bath her •ietories No less renowned than war." Then let the triumphs of peace have their memorial honors, too. And let the first American victor of peace, thus commemo rated, be the man who, for a whole age, has ranked as the first citizen of the Great Republic." Mr. Clay received the address standing, with the deepest attention, and then pro ceeded to observe that, although it has been his habit, in addressing public bodies, larger or smaller, to speak extemporane ously, he had been induced, ou this occas ion, as well out of profound respect to the committee as in regard to his feeble state of health, to depart from his ordinary prac tice and reduce his reply to writing. He I then read, in a firm though somewhat fee ble voice, the following reply : Grsiri.xxxtv : This is, among the most 1 interesting and gratifying day of my life, I although I have been confined to these rooms for a long time by a tedious and doubtful illness. You have come here, the representatives of a large and enlighten- I ed body of ardent and devoted friends of mine in New York, to present to me a beautiful and costly gold medal, intended to commemorate my public life. On one I face of it is engraved all the great public measures adopted in the National Coen ells in whieh I was supposed to have had any conspicuous agency, and on the other a remarkable and accurate likeliess of me. The lime, and the place, or Fresco-, tation, and the friends wino have contrib uted this splendid testimonial, give to it! an inestimable value. The time is when j 1 am about to retire forever from public life, and when I cannot expert notch loo ' ger to linger here below ; the place is the city of Washington, the principle theatre of those public services which have coon; mended themselves to your approbation. Throughout my pttblic life I have been blessed, every where in the United States, with more or fewer true friends, to 'whom I am bound by the strongest sentiments of grattinkle ; but nowhere have tinny sur• passed those in the city of New York in zeal, constancy, and fidelity, and in dis tinguished and various dt , monstrations of their affection and attachment. Whilst lone is in the ardent pursuit of public, life, and is held - op for its highest honors, it is not practicable always to discriminate, among his supporters, between those who' bestow their suffrages from pure, patriotic, I and disinterested motives, and those u•ho are actuated by seltish ends ; but on this occasion no such difficulty exists. You have come, at much personal inconveni-; once, to the bed of a sick and afflicted friend, to present to him, in your names and in the name of a numerous body of, his personal and political friends, whom I you represent, a must precious token of your esteem and affectionate regard.— That friend has not now, and never will have, any public patronage to dispeme,— The high and honorable and disinterested n character, of your motives cannot, there fore, be questioned. Gentlemen, I request you to accept yourselves, and to eommunicate to my ab sent friends whom you represent, my cor dial and heartfelt thanks, and my grateful and profound acknowledgments, for this rich tribute to the sentiments which they do me the honor to entertain towards me. I. should have been most happy to have expressed my great obligations to all of them personally, if it had been in my power. I shall soon pass from tite jurisdiction of m y coptemporaries and of the present generation to that of history and poster ity, if the one shall deem me worthy of any record on its pages, or tradition shall transmit any recollection of me to the other. It is not within my legitimate province to express any opinion on my own pub lie career or public deeds. That office belongs to them, and I shall consider my future fame fortunate if it shall be regard ed by them with a small portion of the fa vor with which the partiality of yourselves and your associates now contemplate it. I shall soon appear before a higher and holier tribunal than any earthly one, which can unerringly judge of the motives as well as tbe acts of man. To- that tribunal I ' look forward with composure and confi dence that I shall be acquitted of having ever been prompted, in the discharge of my public duties, by any — mean or sordid of selfish ends, or been animated by any other purpose than to promote the honor, the prosperity, and glory of our common country. Medals are generally struck by the au* thority and paid for out of the general treasury of Government, and. most fre quently are intended to reward and signal ize the triumphs achieved in war. But that which you now so kindly tender to my acceptance is the spontaneous offering of private citizens, front their private pur ses, for public services exclusively in the civil department. I shall fondly and grate fully cherish and preserve it whilst life en dures, and transmit it to my descendants under the hope that they will receive and carefully guard it, with emotions of lively gratitude to my New York friends, as the proudest and richest legacy that I could leave them. The manuscript having been laid aside, Mr: Clay proceeded to a more minute ex amination of the medal.. It is of pure Cal ifornia gold, massive and weighty, and is enclosed in a silver case, which opens with a hinge in the manner of a hunting watch On the face of tho modal is a fine head of Mr. Clay, convoying an nnusally perfect impression of his features. The reverse exhibits the following inscription : Senate 1806. Speaker 1811. War of 1812 with Great Britain Ghent 1814. Spanish America 1818 to 1822 Missouri Compromise 1821. American System 1824.

The lines are supported on either hand by tasteful wreathe, in which the six chief American staples, wheat, eorn, cotton, to bacco, rice, and hemp, aro very happily in tertwined. On the silver ease is represented on ono side a view of the Capitol, (with its con templated additional wings,) and on the other, in two Ilistiuct compartments, s hove, an elevation of the great commemo rative monument on the Cumberland road: below, a view of Ashland and its mansion. The presentation was private, the only persons present being President Fillmore, Messrs. Jones, Underwood, and Fish, of the U. S. Senate; Messrs. Ewing, Brooks, and Briggs, of the House; Dr. Hall, and the members of the N. V. Committee. Kossuth In the West. The groat Magyar was prosecuting his mission, last week, at Cleveland and Co lumbus, Ohio.

Since that he has made eight or ten more. lie has peremptorily declined to receive any more public receptions and banquets, urging that the means expended on them be applied to the advancement of the cause of his coun try. At Columbus, he was addressed in very eloquent terms by the lion. Samuel Galloway who warmly advocated "inter vention fir the sake of non-intervention."

At an early period of the proceedings. it was evident that there would be trouble. The Buchanan men, who were in the majority at the sev eral meetings previously held, were clear ly in the minority yesterday, and during the ballotings the utmost confusion and disorder prevailed. so much so that a riot was anticipated and the Marshal's police Was held in reserve. We have not heard that the military was ordered out, but cer tainly Acre was as much cause for such an order as on the occasion of Mrs. For rest's debut in New Tork. The Cass men finally succeeded in electing their can didates, and the convention was about to adjourn. when some member of the Bu chanan fiction threw a firebrand into the Convention, in the shape of endorsing "Ten Cent Jimmy" for the Presidency. It would be folly to attempt a description of the scene that followed. Screams, yells, whistling, cries of order, stamping of feet. and clapping of hands, were beautifully intermingled. In the midst of all this. the question wits put, and the President deci ded them carried. The officers now made their escape from the window, and the Case men remaining, Mr. Bierly was call ed to the chair. and a serial of Cass reso lutions Were adopted. Well done, LoOO-' focoism, ! The Maine Law la New York. Otr Mr, Monroe, chairman of the select cominitteo on the subject, Ins submitted in the Serrate of New York a very stringent bill for the suppression of the liquor traf fic, providing that no sale shall be of less than thirty gallons, with strict provisions to guard against sales of less quantity except for medic it Fur,)oscs. Violations of the law are to be punished with fine for the first and second offence, fine and imprisonment fur the third; and all liquor in the hands of unauthorized persons can be seized.— The prosecutor can be adthitted as a wit ness ; no person engaged in the traffic can sit as a juror, and suits under this law shall have precedence of trial. *Er The Senate of Rhode Island has adopted the Maine Liquor Law ty a yoto of 16 to 15, with a condition that it bo sub mitted to a popular vote. p:JmA. bill similar the . laine In* . fore the Legislature of Indiana, with a, probability, it is said, of being adopted. ~Two of the murderers of . young Lehman, the jeweller, in Philadelphia,. were arrested on Wednesday. The other one is still at large. They are foreigners: Some of the missing jewelry was found on . their persons. Account from Mexico state that ap prehensions were entertained of new revo- . lulionary movenumta in favor of Santa An-' na, who is still in exam O :2 - The Simplehaulm Register has hoist- . etl the Scott flag and accompanies the act with the following sensible comments: "Looking then at the chances, it seems plain to us that Scott is the man for our candidate. But still we would not advo cate the nomination of a man upon these' grounds alone—upon the mere question of availability. The public life of Gen-Scott is known and read of all men. A soldier oh great courage, a general of celebrity, ranking first in modern history ; an act corn pl is hrd statesinan and a sturdy repul►- licnn, his life has been spent in. the service of his country. United to the qualifications of experience and ability, that highly im portant requisite in a Chief Magistrate. integrity, is found a prominent element in his character. As a soldier, he cerement red the defence of his country's liven the bloody fields of Lundy's Lane and Ohip pewit. and he carried it triumphantly throe:zit many hard fought fields, until • iv lloati•d triumphantly from the c•estle of San Juan It'Ull , i, and the battlements of the Mexican Capital."

NEW GOLD DOLLARS AND GOLD HALF Dot.Lnas.--Oliscrver." the Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger, "•I have just seen the new dollar piece sent down from the Phildelphia mint to the lion. Gen. S. Houston, chairman of the committee of ways and means. Tilt coin consists of a tlat•ring, on which there is a subscription but no head, as the place for putting the head is cot out. The only objection to this kind of coin is the detrition to which, it seems to me, it must he very liable. On the other hand, the coin may be carried on a string—a most convenient and safe way of carrying mon ey. Half dollar gold pieces, not yet called for by any law, have been sent down, and look very pretty. These half dollar gold pieces would be more convenient still than the dollar pieces, and may be carrier& in the route way." EMIGRATION To CALIFORNIA.—The em igration to California appears to have re new impulse, if we may judge from the large number that left New York on Fri day on board the Cherokee and Prome theus, both of which took out 988 passen gers—the former taking 373 by way of Cliagres, and the latter 951 by way of San Juan. A still larger number are pre paring to go. and have already engaged' their passage on the different steamers leaving New York up to the sth of next_ month. The California steamers num ber thirteen altogether, are furnished' with accommodations for about seven thousand' passengers, and make semi-monthly trips to (.3ltagres and intermediate ports. L large proportion of the emigrants consists of farmers and their families, front the• western part of New York, who intend? making their permanent residence ht Cal ifornia. So says the Evening Post. . A TEMPESTUOUS Voysos.—The• Hhli fax Sun, of the 2nd instant, gives the folk lowing account of the appearance of the+ Liverpool steamer Numb°lt, as, on thy let, she came in from the tempestuous ocean, on which she had been buffetted for thirteen days: write ice on her deck was full four in ches deep, and men were engaged with hand-spikes breaking it up, when we boarded her at the duck. Her sides and beats were garnished with a coat of .frost ing" like a huge plum cake. One quar ter-boat had been swept away, her lar board bulwarks started. and strong plank ing from her Wheel-houses ripped up, by the tremenduous sea whielt lashed her in its rage. Some defect, also, in the rudder demanded the labors of the mechanitoind these Were promptly bestotired." CLAIMS AGAINST 'rue Cove MUST ?Olt Honissit.•;—The National IntoWeimer says that, notwithstanding the clamot against one of the 'bureaus of the Government as to its WAGS of 'vigor in adjusting such alai* ? there has been paid out of the Treasury, since .18Whe sum of 11285,000 for her oes lost in the military•sevice.

AID TO HUNGARY tN POILADIMPRIA 4 FAILOON.—The executive Committee ap pointed in Philadelphia-sometime ago to obtain "material aid to Hungary," was, on Saturday, at an adjourned Meeting in In. dependence Hall, virtually dissolved, in consequence of the little interest manifes ted in the matter, and the greater claims upon the means pl the citizens for the re lief of the sufleribg poor of the city, re sulting from the late severe cold weather. The subscriptions raised by the commit tees to'hold daily sessions at Independenee Hall were "few and far between," amount• ing in all to less than one thousand dollars. It was stated that with the exception of the contributions of members of the committee, only one dollar had been received during the last three days' sittings in the hall.— Other propositions were also abandoned, having been found utterly futile, owing to the apathr of the public mind on the sub ject. The friends of the measure attribute the failure to the fact that the time when collections could have been made was snit fered to pass. The committee, however, previous to dissolving, appointed a corn; mittee to solicit contributions for the fund which had already been pledged to Kos suth. EXTREME COLD.—The very load , tern, perature endured by the Grinnell expedit• on while within the polar circle is thus described by Dr. Kane in one of the Smith sonian lectures : "At the appalling temperature of 40 deg. and 50 deg. or 10 deg. to 80 deg. 'be low the freezing point,' cold became as sensible in its . effects as heat—indeed, between the positive effects of the very high and the negative of the very low scale, it is impossible to distinguiA by sensation. Unpon going out into the open air, the face became encrusted with the icy rind, and the lips were glued together by the Cementing aid of the beard and mus• Cache. The trigger of the gun blistered the finger, and a jacknife in the pantaloons pocket caused you to jump as with a sud• den scald. 1)u ring the long darkness, when they attempted to beguile the winter hours with theatricals, an unfortunate Thespian dropped the pantomimic iron as though receiving a sudden burn.— littleeti, next day a row of blisters had giv en evidence of the troth that, in tempers. tore as in every thing else, extremes meet."
