PRANCE . Revision is once more the order of the day . M « Jules Migeon , an old Conservative , hag laid a proposi tion before the Assembly to revise the constitution . It bas received the signatures of many members . At the sitting of the Pyramids Club on Friday night , the Duks de Brogiie declared against te Tision , in consequence of " the President ' s la&l message . A pamphlet on this inject , said to be composed by Louis Napolr . un , and signed by Lucien Jlnrat , at present p rivately circulated , makes a pea * noise . The aim is oi course the prolongation of the President ' s powers . last
M . Leo de Laborde presented on Saturday a proposition for returning to the legitimate moaarchy ; but M . Dupin refused to take it . With renard to the Communal Electorate Bill , after Moneys amendment , substituting one year instead of t « o for the domicile of adoption was only lost br one vote . A verification was demanded « nd acceded to , which disclosed the following / acts : —The Abbe Coquerel , whose name was found on two carda of opposite colours , solemnly declared at . th e tribune that he bad only put one ticket into the ballot box , and that in favour of the amendment . M . Rev , in whose name two blue cards and one white one * was found , declared that be only put in ona white one , that is , that he had voted for the amendment . Thus , Monet ' s amendment , with-Ottt these extraordinary adulterations of the ballot , vould have been carried .
The President reviewed the garrison of Vincennes opon the plain of S :. Maur on Saturday last . In going and returning he traversed in an opeu barouche and four with g ilded liveries and outriderejthe Faubourg of St . Anloine , but without attracting much a ttention from the working classes , to whom Louis Napolean is at present paying assiduous court in a variety of ways . Tne President has recently dismissed several prefects , and replaced them by persons devoted to bis own personal interests . This proceeding has spread great consternation amoBg the Orleanists and Legitimists . M . JJourdon is a good specimen of their new prefects . He has been promoted from the Correze to the much better prefec ture of the Gard and very lately
gave proofs of zeal sufficiently striking to accoun : for faia promotion . He suspended a republican mayor of Samt-Bonnet . Etoert , who resigned , and was re-elected by an immense majority . He afterwards procured his dismissal . Tbe electors chose another republican mayor , who was forthwith arrested by the prefect , and sent to prison in irons , upon the charge of having entered upon office without the prefect ' s approval . It turned out that the prefect was wrong in his law , but his good intentions have nevertheless met with their reward . M . Bruo , the dismissed Prefect of Indre et Loire , is the uncle of M . Baze , the questor . It may be well to explain that the polite phrase , appele a d ' autres fa uctions , used in the ' Moniteur , ' means simply dismissal .
NAPOLEONIC REVOLUTION IN FRANCE . The second and third editions of Tuesday morning ' s papers made the following announcements : — Paris , Tuesday morning . ' Paris ia in a alate of siege . The Assembly is dissolved . GeneraU Cawignac , Changatuier , Charras , and Lamoriciere , and M . Thiers , have been arrested and conducted to Vincennes . Paris is quiet . Nothing further was known till Wednesday morning . From the accounts received , we compile a consecutive narrative of the extraordinary events that have transpired : —
On Monday night the President held a . reception , tfhich was fully attended . No one dreamed of what tbe morrow would bring forth . Late at night the President wrote an affectionate letter to Al . da Thurigny , and the other Ministers , declaring that his mind was made np—that he could not allow himself to lie sacrificed by his enemies , who were conspiring at that moment ; bnt that , as be was unwilling to compromise them in any way by implicating them in his acts , he thought it better they should lesi gn . It is unnecessary to say the request was complied with at once .
- Tuesday was tbe anniversary of the coronation of the Emperor Napoleon ( 1804 ) , and of AusUrlitz { 1805 ) 2 When tha earliest-rising citizens awoke , they found the principal streets occupied by strong bodies of infantry , cava ' ry , and artillery , and the following decree posted on IVie Trails ;—* In the Na ; ue of the French people . * The President of tbe Republic decrees—* Art . 1 . The National Assembly is dissolved . * Art . 2 . Universal suffrage is re-established The law of the 31 st of May is repealed . * Art . 3 . The French people are conTObed in their e ' ective colleges from the 14 th to the 21 st o . December . *
* Art- 4 . The state of siege is decreed in the whole cf the first military division . * Art . 3 . The Council ol Siate is dlsjolved . * Art . fi . The minister of the Interior is charged with the execution of this decree . Louis Napoleon Bonaparte . " It appears that the President was informed of a midnight meeting at Changarnier ' s lodgings . At four o ' clock , the house was surrounded with soldiers . Cnangarnier , Lamoriciere , and Thiers Were found within . Their remonstanees were drowned in tbe arise of drums . They were conducted forthwith to Vincennes .
A 'Out the same time General Cavaignac , Col . Charras , and M . Bedeau were arrested . Cavaignac is said to have surrendered only to absolute force ; find Beda&u to have killed one of his captors . Later in the day , one hundred and eighty representatives of the Right , with Berryer at tbeir head , were arrested in the M » irie of the . tenth arrondissement . Some of the members of the Left , assembled at Cremieui ' fi house—including , it was reported , even Michal de Bourges—were arrested also . Larochejaquelin , and other representatives , attempted to enter the ball of the National Assembly . They were permitted to do so , but not to return . M . Dupin , President of the Assembly , incited a number oi deputies to meet at bis hotel ; but it was speedily environed bv soldiers .
Eight of the morning journals including the 'National , ' the 'fepublique , ' and Avenemsnt , ' were prevented from appearing . By ten or eleven o ' clock , several proclamations appeared on the walls —oue % Napoleon to ihe Soldiers ; another , Napoleon to the People ; a third , tbe Prefect of Police to the Inhabitants of Paris . The following is the substance of the first : — 'Soldiers ! Be proud of your mission . "You
will save tbe country , for I count upon you not to violate the laws , but cause to be respected the first law—the national sovereignty . The obstacles that were placed in the way of the benefits which 1 sought to achieve for tbe common good have been broken down . Tbe attempt which the Assembly made against my authority has been baffled . The Assembly itself bas ceased to exist . As citizens , vote as you please ; bat as soldiers , remember tbe duty of obedience . '
To the people , Louis Napoleon says , The Assembly , which ought to he the foremost supporter of order , has become a theatre of plots . ' ' In place of nuking laws for the general interest of the people it was forging arms for civil war . It attacked the power I bold directly from the people ; it encouraged ever ; evil pasiion ; it endangered the repose of France . I have dissolved it , and I make the whole people judge between me and it . The Constitution , as you know , had been made with the object of weakening beforehand the powers you
entrusted to me . Six millions of votes were a striking protest against it , and yet I have faithfully observed it . Provocations , calumnies , outrages , found me passive . But now that tbe fundamental part is no longer respected by thoie who incessantly invoke it , end the men who have already destroyed two monarchies wish to tie up my bands in order to overthrow the Republic , my duty is to baffle their perfi . dwu « projects , to maintain the Republic , and to « ave we country b y appealing to the solemn judgment of people So'erci Sa l rec ° 8 niie » EraSce-Ae

based . Persuaded that the instability of power , j that the preponderance of a single Assembly , are the permanent causes of trouble and discord , I submit to your suffrages the fundamental bases of a Constitution which the Assemblies will develop hereafter : — , . , 1 . A responsible cblet named lot ten Jeatt . 2 . Tbe Ministers dependent on the Executive a « 3 . " A Council of State formed of the most distinguished men , preparing the laws and maintaining tbe discussion before tbe legislative corps . ' 4 . A legislative corps , discussing and voting the laws , named by universal Buffi-age , without the xcrutin de lisle which falsifies the election .
« 5 . A second Assembly formed of all the illustrions persons of the nation ; a preponderating porrer , guardian of the fundamental pact and of public liberty . 1 This cyetflm , created by the First Consul in the beginning of the present century , has already given to France repose and prosperity . It guarauiooo them still . Such is my profound conviction . If you partake it , declare so by your suffrages . If , on the contrary , you prefer a government without force , Monarchical or Republican , borrowed from some chimerical future , reply in the negative . Thus , then , for the first time since 1804 you will vote witb complete knowledge of the fact , and knowing for whom and for what you vote .
1 If I do not obtain the majority of the voles I shall summon a new Assembly , and lay down before it the mission 1 have received from you . But if you believe that the cause of which my name is the symbol , that is , France regenerated by the revolution of' 89 , and organised by the Emperor , is still yours ; proclaim it to he so by ratifying tb » powers I demand of you . Then France and Europe will be preserved from anarchy , obstacles " will be removed , rivalries will have disappeared , for all will respect , in the will of the people , the decree of Providence . ' These proclamations were in very few instances torn down or defaced . The citizens generally kept within doors . The workmen exclaimed , on reading them , ' It is well done ! ' ' Ala foi , il a bien fait ; maintenant nous voterons puisqu il a retabli le suffrage universe ) . ' Tbe President showed himself
freely in the course of the day , on the boulevards and bridges , and was received everywhere with shouts of « Vive la Republique ! ' and many cries of 'Vive Napoleon . * If any attempt to get up a dis . iuTbance was made , it was instantly put down . The soldiers appear unanimous and resolute in support of Napoleon . At five o ' clock a manuscript decree , purporting to emanate from representatives met in the Municipality of the 10 th arrondissemenr , under the presidency of M . Odilon Barrot , was put out . It declared Louis Napoleon Bonaparte outlawed , convoked the High Court of Justice to try him for high treason , relieved the army from its allegiance and appointed a general to command it . At the same time the Mountain was said to be sittine , and preparing a manifesto . All functionaries on leave of absence are ordered immediately to
resume their posts . The following account is girca from the best sources of the occupation of tbe Assembly , and subsequent dispersion and capture : —Towards s » x in the morning several agents of the public force presented themselves at the same time at the several points of the Palais Bourbon , occupied by the questors . M . Baze and General Lefto were arrested . The colonel of or ^ e of the feg iments which occupied the Assembly had signifie'rt . tb General Lefto that he was charged provisional ]^ with the guard of the palace . Neither M . Dupin , the prement , or M . de Parat , the third questor , were molested . At halfpast eleven about one hundred representatives were
met in the Salie nes Conferences . yA ^ mmander of gendarmerie mobile came to order ' them to evacuate immediately all the dependencies of the palace . Whilst the commander went * into the passage some representatives penetrated info the hall where the sittings are held . Neither tbe president nor any of the secretaries were at the bureau . The troops then arrived , and the hall was cleared . Tbe great budy of conservative members then repaired to the house of M . Daru . Two or three companies of troops of the line soon arrived to disperse them .
Th ° . commander of the troops announced to the members of the meeting that he had received orders to allow them to leave the place of meeting in full liberty , but if they should attempt to assemble in any other place they would expose themselves to arrest . M . de Falloux , who formed part of the meeting , endeavoured to sound the dispositions of cae troops , and , addressing the soldiers , said : ' I do not believe that representatives have anything to fear from the army . Is it not true that none of you would dare to arrest us ? ' The commander
immediately , with a bow ef the greatest politeness , said , ' Gentlemen , yon have only to make the experiment —yon have only to endeavour to resist . We should act with the greatest respect , but we should do our duty . On receiving this peremptory reply , the representatives retired in great agitation . It was resolved that an attempt should , u « made to enter the Legislative Palace , and between eleven and twelve o ' clock about forty of fcbe party went for that purpose . They were turned back , and one of them , in offering resistance , was , it is said , slightly wounded . At a later period , information having keen received that the Mairie . of the 10 th arrond ssement was at tbeir disposal , and an offer having
been made of the protection of a portion of the National Guards of that legion , about 260 representatives went thither , and entered into discussion . Among them were MM , Daru , the vice-president ; Grimault and Molin , secretaries ; DeLarcj , Berryer , Dufaure , &c . At this meeting several decrees were rvsolved upon , and amongst them was one declaring the President of the Republic deprived of his authority , and another , appointing General Oudinot comr aander-in-cbief , in the name of the Assembly , of the army of Paris , and of the National Guard . M . Berryer , wearing a tricolour scarf , appeared at a window to harangue tbe crowd on the outside , and announce the decisions that had been come to . He
wa 3 , however , very unfavourably received , and the cry of * Vive l'Assemblee ' got up by the National Guards , was very faintly echoed . Whilst this was going on , the Maine was surrounded by a large force of the Chasseurs de Vincennes , and a chefde bataillon entered the room where the members were assembled , and desired them to disperse . They refused , and thereupon were conducted between a double line of chasseurs to the cavalry barracks of the Quai d'Orsay . General Oudiaor , General Lauriston , MM . Berryer , Piscatory , Cbapot , de Talhouet , and Victor Lefranc were among the number arrested . Wednesday Morning . —The nig ht passed without the leasuinterruption of quiet . No account of disturbance has been received from the departments .
The Hi gh Court of Justice attempted last night to meet , but being invited to dissolve , it obeyed the injunction of the Prefect of Police , acting in virtue of a decree of the Piesident . No decision was taken ; no deliberation even had taken place . The new Ministry is composed of M . de Morny ( Interior ; Fould , Finance ; Rouher , Justice ; Magne , Public Works ; Le Rouehe , Marine 5 Casablanca , Commerce ; St . Arnaud , War ; Fortoul , Public Instruction ; Turgot , Foreign Affairs . Paris is perfectly tranquil . At the theatres last night the cries were all in favour of the President , and the intelligence received from seventeen departments announce the greatest tranquillity : Count Mole is not among the arrested . He writes to the papers to express bis regret at not being so .
Notwithstanding the immense crowdB that poured on Tuesday in every direction through the streets of Paris , and tbe visible excitement that reigned in the public countenance , not a single disorder occurred . la the evening tbe crowds , however , had in * creased so much on the Boulevard Bonne Nouvelle , that the authorities thought proper to interfere , and with a view to clear this great thoroughfare , a charge , with drawn swords , was made by a considerable body of sergena de ville . No resistance was offered , and the crowd dispersed without any serious accident . ¦
The ' Monitenr ' announces that ihe President desirous , until the re-organisation of the legislative body and the Council of State , of surrounding bimself with men , who justly enjoy the esteem and confidence of the country , has formed a consultative commission . Eighty names follow belonging mostly to members of the late Club of tbe Rue des Pyramides . Tbe names of Montalembert , and of the Faucher-Baroche ministry appear in this list . The Minister at War has addressed a circular to the Generals of the Army and Chiefs of Corps . The soldiers are to rote for the election of a President within forty-eight hours from the receipt of ths circular . « Yea ' or No ' simply is to be rephea to the following proposition : — ' The French people wishes the maintenance of l § 9 authority of Loeia Jfapolegn , figu « iP «{ e , pa

Tbe only thing like agitation was in the Boulevard des Ualiens and near the Porter St . Martin and St . Denis . All is quiet to-day at Lille , as also at Arras , and all the towns on the telegraphic lines . Rouen and its environs are tranquil . The news has been well received there . A number of telegraphic despatches are continnally pouring in ; all bring most assuring reports .
The following are translations of the resolution and pro test of the members of the Assembl y agreed to at the Mairie of the 1 st arrondissement ; ' — 1 Repuhliqufi Francaise , Assembles Natkmale , Dooember 2 . 1851 . ' Whereas art . 08 of tha flonstitution enacts as follows : — " The President and his ministers ate each responsible for ihe acts of the government , and any measure by which the President of the Republic shall dissolve or prorogue the National Assembly , or p lace any obstacle to the exercise of Us functions , is an object of high treason . Bv that very act the President forfeits bis authority , and every citizen is bound to refuse obedience to his orders . " The Assembly , therefore , since it is hindered bj violence from accomplishing Us mission , decrees :
1 Louis Napoleon Bonaparte is deprived of his functions as President of the Republic , and the citizens are called on to refuse him obedience . ' The executive power passes in its plentitude to the Assembly . 1 judges of the Hi g h Court of Justice are called on to meet immediately upon paid of dismissal , to proceed to judgment against tbe President and his accomplices .

' Every receiver of the public funds , who shall render up possession of tlio same to any person or person other than thoee authorised in the regular and lawful manner , shall be tieid responsible both in property and person . 'Done this 2 nd of Dec , 1 S 51 . '
The representatives who met on Wednesday to carry into effect the decrees ol tho constitution , which proclaims the dechcance of the President of the Republic for tbe violation of the fundamental law , and appoints General Oudinot military dictator , were , after their capture , detained for some time in the cavalry barracks of the Quai d'Orsay . But this was only a temporary arrangement . Several of them have been since permitted to vetuvn to their homes . There is no foundation for the rumour that MM . de Brogiie or Dufaure were arrested . These eminent representatives , as well as M . Dupin , have remained in their respective homes .
The ' P ; itrie says : —« Wo are informed that about 200 representatives have already sent their adhesion to the President of the Republic , and a . greatnumber are- espe . ctftd . inJbhe e vaningJ ^ - i ^^ iffUtCTihiy , aTJburo'clock , tuePresidentreviewed the cuirassiers and carabineers , in the Avenue of the Champs Elyseea , and was loudly cheered by fcbein with cries of ' Vive Napoleon !"

The following decree of the Minister of War has just been posted up : — ' Every person taken in the act of erecting or defending a uiirricado oi < bearing arms shall suffer according to the most rigorous laws of war . '
Another decree of the Prefect of Police prohibits the assembling of groups . All seditious cries , all placards of political import , &o ., are also forbidden . The groups are to be dispersed by tho armed force , and without previous notice . The circulation of public vehicles is likewise prohibited , as well as of waggons loaded with provisions and materiala . The news received from the departments is satisf actory . At Orleans the democratic party assembled to invade the Town-hall ; they have been energetically repulsed by the National Guard and the troops . Forty-fiva of the principal promoters have been arrested , and amongst others the representatives , Martin , Miehaut Tavernier , and Pereira . Paris is perfectly quiet .
ITALY . ROME . —Advices from JRome state that in consequence of the fact of Si gnor Evangelist ] , whose brother was assassinated last June , hasvua detected Signor Capotondi giving a Mazzinian circular to a dragoon , both the giver and the receiver were immediatel y arrested , and , as a natural result , a whole body of suspected individuals imprisoned shortly after from whom tbe inquisitorial questioners attached to the consulta tribunal , expect to extort such confessions as may lead to the uprooting of the whole pernicious system , as they doubtless con-, sider it . Signor Belli , an ex-captain of dragoons , and some officers in actual serviceare amongst the
, number of the prisoners , and a complete razzia of Liberals will be effected under pretext of complicity Meanwhile , to discover that the present meagre remnant of an army , although sifted and resitted by the expulsions of the council of censure is still' rotten aUhe core , ' and tampering with the republicans , instead of devoting heart and soul to the support of the chair of St . Peter , has filled the ecclesiastics with renewed uneasiness ; and they have resorted to their old plan of expulsion and dismissal order to puiify still more the remaining mass of Papal soldiery . Seventeen non-commissioned officers of the line , one corporal , the rest sergeants and sergeant-majors , have just been dismissed from the
lervice ; and so rigorous was the mode of expelling inera , that many of , the poor fellows , far from their homes and friends , could hardly get away from the barracks for want of clothes , every portion of their uniforms being taken from them b y their inexarable euperiore . Thus , whilst paying fifty dollars I head bounty money for recruits , the sum having iow risen to that amount , the priests are obli ged to lend away almost as many able soldiers on account jf their political disaffection , 10 that a great deal ) f money is spent without much increasing tbe real itrength of the army , on whose organisation the

GERMANY . EXTENSION OF ANOTHER CONSTITUTION . A telegraphic despatch , dated Frankfort , Nov . 28 . announces that Vhe constitution of the duchy o ( Nassau , promulgated after the events of 1848 , has just been abolished by aa ordinance of the Grand Duke . The present assembly will be replaced by two chambfiis . Tbe election will take place according to the Prussian law . The Eng lish public have long been accustomed to look upon Elassenpflug , the prime minister of the Elector of Hease-Cassel , as a most improper character both morally and politically . He
him-, self pronounced sentence in his political character , bv scandalous measures which be adopted to carry out his evil designs against tbe constitu tion of the electorate j his private character has suffered still longer , from the stigma of an accusation of forgery , which has been dragging its way slowly throug h the thousand and one forms of a Prussian legal tribunal—it has lasted nearly three yearg . iMany and very different views have been taken respecting this case , the most lenient being tha ^ the offence of whicb Hassenpflug was accused was very general among the higher judicial and civil officials of the Prussian crown . Those who took
that view never dreamed of tbe terrible stigma they thereby ca 9 t upon a numerous body of highly intellig ent and most honest men . The judges at Greifswald , before whom the case has been so long , have at last pronounced sentence on it , a sentence marking their sense of the crime , and , at the same time , the improbability of tbeir ever having been gulity of a similar offence . On the 26 th ult ., thfe Court 0 ! Appeal &t Geetfsvr&ld , alter a discussion oi five hours , found Hassenpflug guilty of forgery , and sentenced him to four months' imprisonment . There is little or no prospect of the sentence being enforced .
NAPLES . A letter from Naples , of the 14 th ult ., in tbe 1 Corriere Mercantile 1 of Genoa states that the King of Naples is forming a camp of observation at Capua . It is to he composed of 50 , 000 men . A letter from Palermo , of the 12 th ult ., in the German Journal of Frankfort , ' states that an attempt at insurrection in Sicily had been made by Baron Rizet and other noblemen , with a view lo
proclaim tbe independence of Sicily , and compel the King to abdicate as King of Sicily , in favour of his son Francis . A portion of the inhabitants of Palermo declared themselves in favour of the project , and the 13 th regiment fraternised with them , but by the energy of the authorities the movement was soon checked , and several arrests , including some officers of the 13 th regiment , were made .
AUSTRIA . The ' Reiche Zeitung ' contains a decree , by which the societies of German Catholics , Friends of Light , Free Christians , and the like , are declared contrary to law . Those already existing are pronounced legally dissolved , and persons continuing to attend their meetings , or erecting new societies , are to be dealt with as criminals . Persons pretending to koly orders in those sects , and acting in ft priestly capacity at baptisms , marriages , or interments will be prosecuted , and only ministers of
the confessions recognised by law , may officiate upon Buch occasions . The bodies of deceased adbe * rents of these prohibited societies are to he committed to the earth without funeral rites , under ihe supervision of the police authorities- In cases where children , through their parents' connexion with such unrecognised communions , have not been brought to tbe baptismal font , the authorised priest of the district is to step in and baptUe the child , providing also for its orthodox religious education .
PBUSSIA . The following is the paragraph of the address relating to the Provincial Diets , The convocation of the former provincial Diets as provisional provincial representatives for the election of the district commissioners , rendered necessary by the law introducing a classified income tax , and for the preservation of their obligation as communal estates ( kommunalstandkehe verpflich " tumgen ) bas at the same time afforded tbe government the opportunity of collating the opinions oi assemblies especially qualified to judge el the practical relations which are concerned in tbe grave objections made to the introduction of the communal laws fpemeinds orAnunn . )
Very rich materials , the result of those deliberations , have been carefully employed in the projects of laws which will be laid before you in connexion with this subject . * ' Count Riuberg bas been elected President , anfl Deputy Bruggemann , vice-president of the First Chamber . Count Schwetin has been chosen President 0 / the Second Chamber . . The King has returned to Potsdam , from Hanover . He haa entertained the members of the legislature , tbe ministers , together with several members of the royal family , at the appointed grand banquet in the palace . Covrrs were laid for six hundred guests .
The opening address to the Chambers is generally considered a most unsatisfactory document . Its remarkable silence on the main branch of the policy of the government , which the liberal party of tbe chambers have hitherto found their best ground of attack—viz ,, the foreign policy—bas created a very curious feeling of discontent .
HANOVER . The subjects of King George V . have been again thrown into alarm ; tbis time by an announcement that his Majesty assumes personall y the supreme command of the army . As the monarch il hopelessl y blind , it ia necessary to state the sense in which this determination is understood in Germany . When the prince of a German state declares himself commander-in-CIiief of the armed force , he signifies that the army ceases to be placed under tbe authority of a responsible minister ; and it ceases to be within the action of constitutional
government ; becomes a facile instrument in the hands of the only individual in the state not responsible to another for his conduct . In the unfortunate situation in which the king finds himself , the command of the army will now be exercised by hit first aide-de-camp , or more probably , by the camarilla which cannot fail to surround a prince re > nuced to see only througn the eyes of others . The disposition and employment of the troops , as well as all promotions , are now no longer under the direction of the Minister of War , who is thue stripped of his most important prerogatives .
INDIA . There has been a serious Mussulman riot at Bombay . It was occasioned by the Patsee editor of an illustrated Guzeratte newspaper ( in each number of which is given a life and Portrait of some remarkable historical character ) having published in the series a life and portrait of Mahomet . Both were in themselves unexceptionable , according to European ideaa , but the whole Mussulman population ( 145 , 000 in number ) , considered their faith to have been insulted and outraged by the publication holding if , as they do , rank sacrileg e and idolatry to ' imagine and print any likeness whatever of « o
sacred a personage . The Mussulmans always assemble to the number of some thousands in their Great Mosque for their weekl y Friday prayers and as it was known that they were in a state of ' con-« d . « able excitement precautions were taken bv the ff ^ OriH H- ' K n - . 8 Ufficlent «*™ * TheCazee or High Priest ' s exhortations to peace wen interrupted b y an Arab Mmmlman , of Rreat sanctity mmg up , abuHng aim for his luklwam s uT 5 d u wT ? * "• i * ^ had S £ S ^ ^ ' / r ? . . ^ . fcfa * , or battle

'
According to the * Cologne Gazette / M . Potockt , who was attahced to the staff of General Bern , and who lately resided in London , has been arrested at Hamburg by Austrian Soldiers . Heavy falls of snow have taken place in some parts of the South of France . Between Puy and Nimes the quantity has been so great that the roads are impracticable .
