• "What Shakspeare said of a certain sort of ambition is being forcibly examplified by Louis Napoleon and his foolish advisers . The' Daily News' correspondent informs as that , 'The whole democratic party will abstain from taking part in the election of the 3 rd November in the Department du Nord . The resolution taken spontaneousl y by the republicans of this department has received the approbation of the
democratic press of Paris and of the departments the organs of republican opinion . The royalists feel anxiety with respect to the conaeqoeaees of thisi abstention , which baffles the calculttious on which were baBed the law of the 31 st of May . Many of those who voted the law , or who hare approved of it , begin to perceive tlut they have g iven to the republicans a rallying sign , and that the whole democratic party marches as one man to the conquest of nniversalBuffrage . '
A rumour has been in circulation daring the past week that Mr . Special-Constable Napoleon was really on the eve of effecting an alliance for political purposes with the Emperor of Russia . The confidential organs of the French government , however , stoutly deny the truth of the allegation . The « Constitntionnel' says : — 'As to the allegationjoffthe Times' on the projects which France might have on Rhenish Prussia , it is needless for us to say that
it is a very bold one . When the armistice which Lad suspended hostilities in Sehleswigfcad transpired Russia and France proposed to England , either to put an end to the quarrel by a common intervention , or at least to allow Denmark to follow up her succesB , andre * BBtablish her authority in Holstein . England set aside these two plans through consideration for Prussia , and the Danes , out of deference for their allies , halted on the banks of the Eyder . The consideration which has been twice shown for a state
which notononBiy breaks its engagements , and secretly supports the cause which it due not openly defend , certainly constitutes in the eyes of the mediating powers a more rigorous right to demand that Prussia should return to the letter and spirit of the treaty which it had signed with Denmark . The state of affairs , moreover , changes to the prejudice of the Danes , as time goes on , and the winter season advances . The ice will remove the obstacles which protect Schleswig , and Denmark will be threatened on her own territory , which we have guaranteed by treaties . It would be iniqnitous to maintain a statu quo which subjects Denmark to such a disastrous hazard , when stopped by a kind of moral barrier .
She has abstained from following np the success of her arms on the German territory of Holstein . It nay be consequently understood that if Prussia and Germany do not esecnte in a proper time the treaty of Berlin , the Conference of London would relieve Denmark from the obligation which has been imposed on it , and engage even to lend assistance in the event of one or more of the states of Germany interfering in the war . But in supposing the most alarming prognostications to be realised ; supposing that all the efforts of the Conference cannot set aside B conflict the most improbable , it is evident that the theatre of this conflict would be Denmark , and that neither Silesia , nor Rhenish Prussia , as the ' Tunes ' States , will have anything to do with it . '
The' Pouvoir , * another government organ , has an article to the same effect . The antecedents of Napoleon Louis justify what lawyers call a prima facie belief in the probability of such an understanding , hut we have no fears for the result . We think there Is much truths-more , we fancy , than the writer or his master supposes—in the following observations of the ' . Pouvoir ' : — Louh NapUleon has nothing to gain by a war , however popular it might be . His future is more widely pointed out than the English journalist appears to think , and we may eay that on this head his personal interests are in accord with his intentions and with his duties / -
We will tell the editor of this latter journal , moreover , that a war with England would not now be ' a popular war , ' however much so it might have been a short while since . Frenchmen and Englishmen now know each other too well , and Frenchmen are also ' wide awake' to the aims and objects of their £ ua « -President . If thi 3 functionary wants to play at War let him not select as his opponent a constitutional country . He had very much better not . It 13 with sincere regret , we are compelled to announce that the health of the stern and true republicans , who are in the power of the government , ha 3 suffered under the severe discipline to which they Lave been subjected .
The ' Morning Chronicle ' s' correspondent has been reluctantly obliged to allow that such : 3 the case . He says : — 'The political prisoners recently confined in the fortress of Dnuilens have now been all removed to Belle Isle snr Mer , with the exception of M . Barbes and M . Blanqai , who have been retained in one of the prisons of Paris , in consequence of the bad state of their health . It appears from the Republican papers of Saturday that the authorities refused to allow the families of the convicts to see them , when passing throngh Paris , or to allow any sort of communication . The reason given for this rigour is the discovery of a conspiracy among the prisoners to effect their escape ; but the ' National ' says that this is a mere pretext . '
Poor Barbes , bowever , it seems will not avail himself of this indulgence , lest it should seem he seeks a clemency by reason of his former wealth and reputation which his poorer and less famous fellow sufferers are unable to procure . The ' Presse' publishes the following letter , which be has addressed to M . Brives : — 'Do me the favour , my dear Brives , to hasten to the Minister of the Interior , and to summou him , in my name , to cause me to be sent to Belle Isle . The
report of Dr . Ferus on my health has nothing to do with the case . After my formal declaration to the Inspector-General Lucas , that , whether ill or not , I intended to be sent away with the others , I can only consider an exemption as an attack on my moral consideration—on my honour , as an old republican , who has never asked anything ( as i have no need to say ) , and will never ask an ? favour of any government whatsoever . —Tours most truly , « A . Bakbes . Prison of Doullens , Oct . 20 . '
The steam-boat containing the political prisoners passed by Nantes on the 23 rd , on its way to Belle Isle sat Mer . The prisoners were kept below , and the deck was occupied by gendarmerie mobile . The prisoners chanted the 'Marseillaise , ' cried 'Vive la Eepublique ! ' and waved their caps from the cabin windows . From the bridge of Pirmil and the quay , a crowd of persons responded t 9 the cries , and threw wreaths towards the steamer , but they were carried away by the stream . Precautions were taken by the authorities to prevent an outbreak . A later article in the ' Constitutionnel' from the pen of M . Yeron , has drawn much attention from the pledges it contains , that Louis Napoleon will abstain from taking tbe initiative in the question of the prolongation of his powers .
. The recent change in the Cabinet does not ap * pear to have produced any better agreement between Changarnier and tbe BuonapanislB . The former had an interview with the President on Sunday , in the course of which it is said the latter demanded an explicit explanation of the General ' s intentions with respect to the prolongation of the President ' s powers . The explanations given appear not to have been by any means satisfactory , and a violent scene took place , in which recriminations were bandied about on both sides . After General Changarnier bad left tbe palace , a private meeting was called of some of Napoleon ' s most intimate friends and confidential advisers , in which the situation of affairs ,
as respects the President's interests , were fully discussed . At this meeting it is said that advices of a very -violent nature was tendered . It is even stated that some of those who took part in this conciliabule went so far as to suggest tbe propriety of the immediate arrest of General Changarnier , and some other parties supposed to be hostile to the President ' s interests . This proposition was felt to be too rash to be aeted on ; but a determination was expressed to bring matters to a crisis , one way or other , with ihs least possible delay . General Neumayer , the officer second in command -. f : \ c array of Paris , under General Changarnier , has ban dismissed by the sew Minister of War . is
G ii ^ ral Neumayer tbe particular friend of General Chaxgarnier , and is the only officer under his command in whom he bad implicit confidence . The consequence of all this was a panic at the Bourse , which broug ht down tbe funds to a considerable extent . On Monday a plot , ascribed to the Socialists , but which bears every appearance of having been Latched by the authorities , has caused the incarceration of MM . Gent , -Metzn , and Penart . The * Times' correspondent , of course , is ' circumstanlial' in Ms revelations , but they are of the' mare a nest' character which distinguishes the production of that veracious authority . One of the pereons arrested has been set at- liberty already , so foolishly has tie pl ^ t been contrived . M .

he accused the provincial government and the ministers under General Cavaguac of having availed themselves of the carriages and horses of the exking . Most of these parties have expressly and diatinctly given ' coachy'the lie . His pamphlet appears to have been fabricated in tbe same factory as that of Chenu , who so foully aspersed the character of M . Caussidier , and , like it , is equally devoid of truth . The cause must be weak , indeed , which is forced to have recourse to such dirty work . The naval division consisting of the ships of the line , Friedland , Valmy , Hercules , Jemmappes , Henri IV ., Jena , Inflexible , Jupiter , and two steam
corvettes , quitted Cherbourg on tbe morning of the 26 th for Brest . The wind was so violent , that at night fall a part of the fleet was only about a mile from the breakwater . On the 28 th this fleet made its appearance in Torbay , and anchored about two miles from Berry Head . The ' Times' correspondent says : — ' I shall watch the movements of the fleet , the ships all loekin good order and clean , and they handled their canvass tolerably quick on coming to an anchor . ' This is coming to rather' close quarters ' with the chance of a shindy , in which France , if Louis Napolean gets Mb own way , will be on tbe opposite side to England .
There is evidently much excitement among the intriguers for power , the dismissal of General Neumayer was revoked at a Cabinet Council held on Tuesday morning , and confirmed at another , held in the afternoon . This decision was announced to M . Neumayer by the Minister of War and the President , who expressed at the same time the intention of bestowing another post upon the displaced general . In answer to this announcement General Neumayer wrote a letter to the Minister of War declining any other post in compensation . General Cbangarnier was invited to name the successor of Neumayer , but resented the compliment as derisory . An extraordinary meeting of tbe commission of permanence was called for on Wednesday . ' The contest , ' says the correspodent of the Daily News , ' 'between General Changarnier and the Elyree verges to a crisis . '
The'Evenment mysteriously states that 'after the breaking up of the council of ministers on Saturday M . de Labitte had a long interview with the British ambassador , and it is said that he was to have had another conference in the evening with M . de Eisseleff , the Russian charge d ' affaires . We also know that in the saloons of Lord Normanby the diplomatic body conversed very earnestly on the attitude France was about to assume as regarded the Emperor Nicholas . Lord Normanby maintained the greatest reserve . ' Late accounts from Lyons , confirm the fact of the discovery of a conspiracy , and the arrest of M . Gent : other arrests have also taken place .
By way of gossip we are informed by one of the Paris journals that M . Emmaus Lind , a chemist of some distinction , and brother of Jenny Lind , has just arrived in Paris , and is about to proceed to Havre , to embark for the United States , to join his sister .
HESSE CASSEL . There has been a continued movement of troops towards the Hessian frontiers , and we are at length informed that the die is cast . A Bavarian and Hungarian corps must have entered Hesse Cassel . An Austrian battalion accompanied the former corps . Four thousand men march from Italy to join the army in the Tyrol , which at present consists of 30 , 000 men . Fourteen Infantry battalions and four Cuirassier regiments march from Hungary to join the Bohemian army , which at present consists of 85 , 000 men . Both of the armies are within half-an-hour ' s march of the respective frontiers . Generals Scblick and Clam will be appointed to tbe command of the army corps in active service .
None of the Hessian officers have yet actually quitted the service ; they are still performing their military duty , hoping perhaps that the contingency that would require them to act against their fellow citizens and the Constitution may not arise . It is probable this will really be tbe case , as the Hessians appear determined their opposition shall still be of that passive kind against which force is unavailing . Nothing has yet happened to interrupt public peace or order , and Cassel , which has set in motion whole armies to observe it , is iu a state of profound tranquillity , less moved by the events itself than tbe States around it . This statement comes by way of Prussia , and , perhaps , the later intelligence may alter the tone of ths revolutionary policy . It is reported that Prussian troops hava also crossed the Hessian frontier .
BAVARIA . A Munich paper states that the King of Bavaria has rather unexpectedly returned to his capital . The fortress of Baraburg is being victualled for threa months . The Bavarian horse ^ Cuirassiers ) at Land shut have left that place , . and proceeded in forced marches in the direction of Regensburg .
HAN . 0 YER . A correspondent , writing from Hanover , on the 24 lbulf , says : — 'While all the world conceived the ministerial crisis as ended , it now appears that it has only entered on a severer stage . Among the terms imposed by the remaining ministry were the removal of Count Kuyphausen , ambassador at Ber I ' m , and tbe Adjutant Count Platen . A few days ago a violent scene arose between the King and M Benningsen , in consequence of which MM . Scheele , Kielmansegge , Itossing , and Lindeman were sent for . ' SAXONY .
The King of Saxony has declined to receive the delegates of the Leipsig book trade , who desired to present a protest against the projected press laws . It is stated that a female Democratic Society has been closed by the police of the flourishing manufacturing town of Chemnitz .
PRUSSIA . The military movements towards . the Hessian frontier still continue , but in the detail there was nothing new of importance . General Hahn had been sent to Holstein with a despatch from the Prussian government to thi StaathaUeracnaft . In the present equivocal position of the German monarchies the following from the correspondent ' of the ' Times' dated , Vienna , October 23 rd , will be read with interest : —
'Although some of the German , and particularly the Frankfort , newspapers have assured the public that Austria and Prussia are on the point of coming to an understanding , I have good reason for questioning the authenticity of the statement . Prussia insists that her troops have as much right to enter Hesse-Cassel as those of any other German Power : this the opposite party strenuously refuses to acknowledge , on the ground that only Federal troops can be employed in those States which , acknowledging the legal existence of the German Confederation , are represented at Frankfort . ' The poet Freiligrath has received orders to leave the village of Bilk , in the neighbourhood of DusBeldorf , where he was residing , and to quit tbe Prussian territories within a fortnight . ' ¦ '¦¦ ¦
DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES . Advices , dated the 25 th ult ., state that a trifling skirmish between some ' cavalry patrols in the vicinity of Kropp took place on the morning of the 23 rd ult ., in which , as usual , several lives have been lost on both sides , and ; some prisoners made . It has been reported that the Holsteiners have captured seven Danish Dragoons who had ventured too far in pursuit , and that they had been brought into Rendsburg ; they admit , however , that an equal number of their own men were killed , wounded , and taken by the other side .
Another more important movement is in contemplation , however , on the part of the Holstein clergy , nobility , and landed proprietors , and which it is hoped may do some good . The ' Weser Zeitung has reported that a meeting of the above orders will take place at Kiel shortly , to take proposals of peace into consideration , as well aB the kvy of taxes &c . Much sickness is reported in the Danish army in Schleswig—principally typhus fever , of which some hundreds are suffering . The wet weather favours the spread of this disease ; but as tbe Danes have taken care to provide convenient and comfortable hospitals for their sick and wounded , the Iobs in deaths will not be very great , and they have many very able medical men in the camp .
. The' Weaer Zeitung' announces that the assembly of the Schleswig-Holstein nobility , &c , took place on the 24 th at Kiel ; on which occasion , it is said , they decided upon representing to the German Confederated states their inclination for a peaceable conelusion of the question at issue ; but . uponwhat basis nothing has as yet been publicly known . The city of Bremen , which has already subscribed the respectable sum of 100 ; C 00 Prussian thalers , or about £ 15 , 000 , intends to send further contributions , and other places are now imitating this example of munificence . In Berlin , however , the pence system of lubscription is still carried on ,

THE ROMAN STATES . Rome , Oct . 25 . —Although , the Romans are not berantly merry this year , their October festivities are likely to be a good deal damped by the wholesale executions now going on . The general interest excited by the fate of Young Antonini , the ex-poatoffice employe , accused of complicity in the attempt to murder Nardoni , the powerful influence used to induce the Holy Father to commute his sentence , and the delay in the execution of it , led to the hope , if not the supposition , . that only the assassin himself would suffer the extreme penalty of the law ; but the appearance of the customary wooden tablets yesterday afternoon , with the names , ages , and trades of the three persons about to be
removed from the world this morning , showed the fallacy of such an expectation . The mother : and other relations of Antonini were arrested , as is cu « - tomary here , in order that their presence at the execution might not excite sympathy or disorder amongst the crowd , and late last nighfc the fatal Intelligence was communicated to the culprits themselvesi who were immediately , after transferred from the prison of Si . Michele to the chapel , or conforteria , there to spend their few remaining hours of life in religious exercises and preparations for eternity , Domenico Pace , the assassin , is stated to have showed himself penitent , and disposed to
accept the last offices of the church , but young Antonini , the post-office employe , and Maurizi , the shoemaker , obstinately refused to have anything to do with the miniatera of religion , whose efforts to convert them were interrupted about three o ' clock in the morning by a message from the Fisco , announcing that his Holiness had mercifully granted the prisoners their lives . The three unhappy wretches could not at first believe the change in their situation , and one of them , the assassin , was so seriously affected , by the revulsion of feeling , that he is very unwell this morning in the prison hospital .
Of course many reports are current with respect of this unexpected act of mercy , which is so far out of the usual routine of justice , that no one recollects a criminal ' s life ever having been spared after the tablets were publicly exhibited . The Pope ' s own compunctious feelings , the representations of the foreign ministers , Nardoni ' s fear of reprisals and his consequent exertions , and the apprehension of a popular outbreak , are variously attributed as the cause . The 'Daily News' correspondent says!— 'I . have ascertained that M . Freeborn , the British consular agent , never wanting in the duties of humanity , bad a long interview on the subject yesterday morning with M . de Rayneval , and , if report is to be trusted , he threw all his influence into the scale of mercy as deeming the men worthy of punishment , but not of death . '
The same authority tells us pretty plainly the cause of the Pope ' s clemency . He says on this subject : — 'Before closing my letter , I must . state that the Pope ' s merciful intentions are now universally attributed to the significant hint of General Geraeau , who , moved by the continual entreaties of Antonini's mother and sisters , and finding other arguments fail , informed Cardinal Antonelli that , in case of any attempt at rescue by tbe populace , he should leave the responsibility to the Roman troops ; not considering it his duty to interfere in similar
cases . The correspondent of the ' Daijy News' furnishes some interesting details respecting the pardon granted by the Pope to the three . criminals , Antonini , Mauriz , and Fabri , and the manner in which what is called 'justice' is administered to political offenders in Rome . Young Antonini , the only one of the three prisoners for whom public sympathy was strongly aroused , was condemned to . death in virlne of the bundreth article of the penal code , an edict of
Cardinal Albani , who raged with Draconic severity , against secret societies , under Pius VIII ., and : who decreed those worthy of death who give or accept any order to hurt any one through party spirit . No spirit of the kind has been proved against Antonini nor the slightest traces of bis belonging to any secret society whatever—no such order is proved , and , supposing him to have . given it , the highest legal penalty would have been ten years at the galleys Tbe only way to justify the sentence of death would have been to prove the existence of a secret society or party spirit , which has not
been done . . V The so-called pardon which has been granted to them is to drag out the remainder of their existence , chained to a prison wall at Civita Vecchia , in a damp range of cells , where the average of life is three years . And this boon of ' His Holiness ' seems to have been extorted , by the fact that the soldiers threatened to mutiny , if called upon to act as executioners . All three have been sent to Civita Vecchia . The Pope set out the following day for Frascati , escorted by French and Roman cavalry , and went to dine with the Camaldolese monks , returning to Rome on the same evening . He was , as usual , silently received by the people on passing through the 8 treets . PIEDMONT .
The Vice-president of the Chamber of Deputies at Turin has sent round notices to the members to be punctual in their attendance at the opening of the Chambers on the 5 th . The court goes into mourning for twenty days for the death of the Queen of the Belgians . M . Ferdinand Ban *? t will quit Turin at tfte end of October , to return to Paris .
SPAIN . The gallant General O'Lawlor , an Irish officer in the Spanish service , and who for many years acted as the Duke of Wellington ' s steward in Andalusia , died oh Monday week full of years and honours . General Narvaez not haying been able to satisfy tbe demands of Gen . Serrano , has quarrelled with him . The editor of General Pavia ' s paper , the Patria , ' has wounded the editor of the Heraldo ; ' Senor Mora , in a duel with sabres . The ' Patria' was seized again on Friday , and the ' Nacion ' . on
Saturday , for obnoxious articles on the finance minister . The Santander journals state that ' a serious mutiny , took place among the troops . about to be sent to Cuba . These soldiers conceived that they had a right to the extra pay given to soldiers sent to the colonies , from the time they were ordered to set out for their destination . They , therefore , showed their discontent by loud murmurs and insolent language to , their officers . . The mutiny was finally quelled by the most energetic measures ; a corporal and a drummer were shot , and fourteen privates put in irons .
A despatch from the Captain-General of Barcelona states that five Carlist officers , namely , Major Porrou , Captains Pouzas , Tiu , and Vendre , who all belonged to the troops once commanded by the sanguinary Tristany , together with Aguda , an innkeeper , having attempted to raise the Carlist standard in the mountains near Salsoua , were surprised by a detachment of the queen ' s troops , and made prisoners , but having attempted to escape , were all killed . The officers were all put under arrest , and a court-martial ordered .
PORTUGAL . The Duke defPalmella has just died . No one can doubt that tbe Queen Donna . Maria is indebted to him for her throne , but she did not evince her acknowledgments to him . The life of the Duke had been despaired of some days past ; but the Queen , always ready to go , or to send , to inquire after her friends , did not take the trouble to inquire after Palmella . , An earthquake was felt at Moncorvo , on the 6 th ult . It appears that the government , being informed of the necessity of giving work to the people in order to avoid a revolution , bas sent positive orders to begin working on the roads . Although postage is becoming cheaper everywhere else , it is augmenting in this country . ,
AMERICA . The news from America is very important . The excitement caused by the Fugitive Slave Bill is described as being greatly on the increase . A telegraphic despatch , dated Detroit , Oct 12 , says : — ' The slave excitement continues . The gaol is well guarded by our military , who are uuder regular army discipline . The negroes around the city are uttering awful threats . At Sandwich , in Canada , opposite Detroit , there are , at the least calculation , three hundred negroes , who lately crossed the river , and it is dangerous for a citizen

This latter movement , it is needless to say , arose out of the difficulty of obtaining access to her concerts . Barnurawas anxiously inquired for by the crowd . We find the following in the / Boston Daily Advertiser ' : — _
Cheap Excursion to England Proposed . — The ' Transcript' suggests , on the authority of a correspondent , that a line of first class packets will agree , provided 100 passengers can be obtained , to furnish a passage to Liverpool and back , with good accommodations andjexcellent fare , for sixty dollars each passenger—to leave Boston about the middle of May next , and to sail on the return about the 1 st of August . It is stated that the trip can be made , including the expenses of three weeks' resU dence iu London and three weeks devoted to excursions in various parts of England , at a cost of 100 dolB . Such a trip , we fear , would be too cheap to be , either pleasant or profitable .
On the 14 th another steam-boat , explosion occurred near Pittsburg , and four persons were instantly killed ; five or six others were dangerously scalded . In Montreal ( frem whence we ^ have dates to the ] 4 th ) ,. preparations have ^ been making on a large scale for the Grand Industrial Exhibition , which is to take place on the 17 th , 18 th , and 19 th ult . The specimens of wheat , copper , and forreBt woods , which will be presented on this occasion , it is believed cannot be rivalled in the world .
The mining companies in the vicinity of Lake Superior are prosecuting their operations with great energy and success . The recent developments , ; both in tbe copper and iron regions , are of a highly flattering character , and serve to dispel all doubts iwith regard to the feasibility of the enterprise . The connection of the lakes by means of a ship canal , which will soon be effected , will afford every facility for communication , and the mineral wealth of the Upper Peninsula will findah easy transit to . allparts of the country . It is estimated that the rough copper which will be sent down from Lake Superior the present year will amount to over two and a half millions of pounds . About 1 , 000 operatives are to be employed the ensuing winter , in connexion with the mining enterprise .
CAPE OF GOOD HOPE . vVe have received journals from Cape Town to the 14 th of August , and from Natal to the 30 th of July . The most important news by this arrival relates to the proceedings in the ' Emegrante Grensgebiet . ' The boers were persisting in their attempt to deny access to or passage through the / territory to all European traders or travellers of any description . ¦¦ „ Great discontent was beginning to . be expressed in tbe Cape Colony at tbe delay on the part of the home government in sending : out full authority to organise the legislative council on the . footing announced in a despatch to Earl Grey . ; The Cape Town municipal commissioners have under tbeir consideration a proposal to appropriate the sum of £ 200 towards the cost of a new
building for the public library . Mr . Byrne ' s emigrants had mostly deserted their allotments , and purchased farms in different quarters , or sought other more suitable avocations . .
