THE PRESIDENT OF THE FRENCH…
THE PRESIDENT OF THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. Louis NAPOLEON BONAPARTE was born in Paris, on the 20th of April, 1808. He is the third son of Louis Napoleon, brother to the Emperor, and King of Holland, by Hortense Eugenie, daughter of the Empress Josephine. The Emperor had determined that the eldest of his family should always be called Napoleon. Charles-Louis- Napoleon is now, according to the provisions of the SENATUS-CONSULXUM of the 28th floreal, year xii (1804), the eldest son of the Imperial family. Of his two elder brothers, one died at the age of five years in 1807, at the Hague; the other, who bad been Grand Duke of Berg, died at Forli, in the Papal States, March 17 1831. Hence it is, that since the latter period he signs himself Napoleon-Louis. His birth was saluted by the cannon of the Grand Army, along the whole of its line. The divorce from Josephine was not yet so much as thought of; and his name was the first inscribed in the register which was to regulate the right of succession in the Imperial family it was after his, that the name of the King of Rome was entered.
ANOTHER FEARFUL CALAMITY.
ANOTHER FEARFUL CALAMITY. Scarcely was the ink dry which recorded the late fearful tragedy in Greenwich-avenue, where nearly 50 innocent children lost their lives, and many more were laid upon bedsof suffering and anguish, when our ears were a.salled wllh the sickening intelli- gence of another catastrophe, which, though not so fearfully horrible in i s results, is, nevertheless, mournfully sad. The facis of this new case of defb and <te«irii< ti(,0 are as follows :— At a few minutes pas' twelve o clonk, jusi as the fnen employed in Ihe printing.piess facory ol Messrs. Hoe, at the corner of Broome aod Sheriff-streets, had stopped work to eat iheir dinners, a tremendous crash was heard, and at the next moment it was discovered that the top part of the side wall or gable end of the building which stood nexi to 'be a< smith shop, had fallen. The blacksmith shop and the wall, a part of which fell, was four atones high, being part of a building used by Messrs. Harmon and Co., bre-.eig, ol No. 12. Sherdf street, as a malt-house. The upper 'Olt wlis „>edas a store-room for grain, aod there were 9,000 or 0 bushels of barley in it at the time. There are usu-IIY from 18,000 o20,000 bushels of grain in ibis s»me loft, »nd Mr, Harmon waS about to have several thousand bushels stored there to-morrow. The wall was evidently weak, and was not securely anchored to The timber. near the roof. A' the time the wa e there were but few men in the blacksmith's shop, as most of them had gooe to dinner. Had the accident happened half an boor later, the loss of life must have been fearfully great. I he distance of the top of the wall above the shop was go great. that the falling miss g ithered great impetus before it reached it and when at length it did strike the roof, it fmdly met with a perceptible resistance. A great quantity of gram followed the biicks and mortar, aDd all lav together a shapeless mass of ruins. T e men of ihe establish- ment went to work clearing awsy the rubbish, and scon came lo one of their companions, Robert Sears, who was severely huri, but not mortally. It was said al one lime that his tight was desiroved but this it is hop,!d will pove not to be the case. Going on with their labour, the workmen came to and released Ihe body of another of their companions, nsmed Wm. Conquest, who wall alive, but who --is also badly injiired. Thev walked On- Ind soon found the lifeless body of Eooch S. Brow., a and after removing still more of the limber aDd they discovered the body of Waller Matthews who Will also dead. This completed the list of the missing. Several at 'he workmen had narrow escapes, and one of them was actually hit by one of the timbers, while another sloorl in the mirlst of rubbish which had Uleo all round him- yet, wonderful 10 say, he was untouched, or at least entirely unhurt. Mr. Conquest jt j ™*°cf 006 department of Alessi*. Hoe's establishmeidt, tui bad ju»t rOhuu4 horn Philadelphia. He enursd the obop for the purpose of shaking hands with some of his fellows, when he was assailed by the falling mass. He was removed to his residence in Delsncy-slreel, in a stille of mental derangement, but is not so seriously injured as Mr. Sears. The latter was taken to bit house in Williamsburgh, where were also taken the remains of the deceased Mr. Brown, he having been. when alive, a resident of that city. Mr. Matthews belonged to East Brooklyn. He was a native of England, 30 years of age, and has left a wife to mourn his loss. Mr. Biown was also a native of E igland, 43 years of age, and has left a wife and five children. His brother was buried io the ruins at the Hague- street explosion, but released himself and went to the aid of his companions, where a piece of wall fell and buried him for the second time but he was after all saved. He was at the scene of this disaster, and look chaise of the remains of his brother.

The police of New Yoik, for some time past, have been on the alert for a reported Hungarian, named Maximilian Benedict, alias Baron Baumgartner, who stands charged with the seduction of the wife of Mi. G. H. Taylor, a wealthy merchant residing in London, who charges this Hungarian refugee, not only with 'he seduction of his wife, but ioducine her to elope with him to this country, taking with them over 1,200 dollars' worth of Mr. Taylor's properly, consisting of watches, jewellery, and money. It appears, from the affidavit made by Mr. Taylor before Justice M'Grnth, one of our efficient police justices, that about six months ago, the accused WijS introduced into his family in London as a friend and visitor, aud also represented as one of The unfortunate Hungarian refugees. Soon after his acquaintance with the family he commenced to make love lo Mrs. Taylor, a young and thoughtless woman, who, on 1118 persuasive arts, con- cluded to elope with him and in so doing, aided by the seducer, robbed her husband of the above-named amount of property, and decamped. As scon as Ihe husband ascertained she had eloped, supposing they had gone to France, he went in pursuit. Fist he went to Paris, and not finding them there he continued his pur- suit to Prussia, Austria, and other countries, in all of which he learned the character of Benedict to be known as a swindler, and had frequently been arres ed. Each of these places proving unsuccessful, Mr. Taylor concluded io come lo New York, and took passage in the steam-ship City of Glasgow, which arrived at ihis port on Saturday night last. On inquiry after his erring wife he ascertained that the swindler had palmed himself off on Mr. Geoin.ihf latter as one of ihe Hungarian refugees and followers of Governor Kossuth, and was then fesiding in the house of Mr. Genin, who had taken him and his reputed wife under his roof as one of the Hungarian patriots, Mr. Gentn having been led to believe that his representations were true, from similar statements made to him y oi er parties, iclative to the identity of Mr. Benedict. Oo these charges preferred by Mr. Taylor, officer Jones took both Ihe Parties into custody, and conveyed them before Justice M'Grath and on searching the Hiingrian, there were found a gold watch and chain, valued at 250 dollars, together with an elegant snufl-box, worth 50dollars, and a gold finger ring. All this properly was identified by Mr. Taylor as belonging to him, and of his own property, having been stolen by Benedict, who, it seems, was not satisfied with stealing his gold, but robbed him of his wife besides. The magistrate commuted the accused to prison to awail a further heariog. The wile was taken charge of by her husband, wbo, it seems, is willing to overlook the past if she will never do so any more.
EXTENSIVE ROBBERY.i
EXTENSIVE ROBBERY. BRISTOL. SATUHDAY EVENING.—A considerable amount of interest has been excited here to day, in consequence of the "pprehension by the detective police of ayoong man named Isaac Powell, wlto is undersl ood to be very respectably connected, upon a chane of having robbed to a large extent the house of Candy and Haggar, an extensive wholesale siik merrery firm. to which he was an articled assistant. The prisoner was brought b 'ore the magistrates this day upon the charge, Mr. Wiliam Bevan attending 10 conduct ihe prosecution, and Mr. Ayre. of the firm of Ayre and Calder, appearing for the prisoner. It appeared from the examinations, which were very volu- minotis, that Messrs, Candy and Hangar had forsome time been 'lissatisfitd with the proceedings of the young man, although at first they did not suspect hun of anything more serious than irregularity and inattention. At length, however, they were induced to entertain suspicions of a more serious nature, and upon the police authorities being applied to upon the subject, Police-fergeant Snmnets, of the detective force, was despatched to search his apartments, at the house of his father, who lived retired, at llanhun, in Gloucestershire. Upon his dressing table the sergeant found a valuable piece of French satin, measuring eleven or twelve yards, « htch Messrs. C. and H. were enabled to speak to as having been in their stock so recently as November last, while in several boxes and trunks in the same room, the keYK of which were obtained from the prisoner, was discovered a vast amount of property, consisting of shawls, silks, handkeichtefs, &o., amounting in value to at least £50. All these things were of a description precisely corresponding with Messrs. Candy and Hacgar's stock, and there was besides other property 01 considerable value, which they suspected had been pur loined from them, but to which they were not enabled to speak so decidedly. Nir. Ayre cross-examined the witness closely in the endeavour to make it appear that the property in question might have been sold by the firm, but the:r answers showed a system of business which rendered it impossible that such could have been the case, without an entry of the sale appearing in the books. The Magi*'rates said they considered that a wholesalerobbery had been made out, and they committed the prisoner for trial. The court was densely crowded throughout the investigation.

NOTICE. THE MONMOUTHSHIRE MERLIN. CHANGE OF TIME OF PUBLICATION. In consequence of recent postal alterations in this district, it has become necessary to accelerate the pub- lication of our paper. It will be observed, from the Post-office Table above, that the Abergavenny and Tredegar mails leave Newport at half-past five, a.m., which will render it necessary for us to go to press several hours earlier than heretofore, in order to the prompt transmission of the MERLIN to those important localities. Advertisers and general correspondents are, therefore, requested to favour us with their com- munications as early in the week as possible and to observe that TH U RSDA Y evening is the latest pe- riod at which anything can be received by the local mails, for insertion. We shall reserve a small space for important news reaching us by the London mail, on Friday morning, and the paper will be ready for delivery in Newport, between 8 and 9 a.m.

"OBSERVER," ON THE PROPOSED…
"OBSERVER," ON THE PROPOSED BANK DIVIDEND. THOUGH we noticed in our last the timely and im- portant letter of our correspondent Observer," its contents are of too much moment to be left without some further reference; and we will, therefore, make a few additional comments on the points which it contains. That which primarily presses itself upon the at- tention, is the question of relieving certain share- holders from further liability, upon paying certain sums which are stated to go to the utmost of their means, and, in some cases, beyond them, their friends being willing to aid them in such instances in order to prevent their being crushed by indefi- nite requirements. We are fully aware that this is a delicate and difficult subject; at first sight, an objection may be taken to one man being relieved of a liability into which he ought not to have en- tered beyond his means while another, who has prudently confided his responsibilities to his means of discharging them, is called upon to pay in full, and may even have to give much more than he owed, in order to meet the deficiency thus created. But, while fully admitting the abstract principle in- volved in such an observation, we must also deal with such matters practically. The most rigid process of law can only get from a man what he has; and if by such process there be taken from him those means of carrying on his business, which a voluntary compromise would leave him, yet, on the other hand, there is to be deducted the heavy costs which attend all appeals to the law. Viewing things in this practical light, it has always been considered that voluntary compromises were in many cases the best for the interest of the creditor; and if so, they are also best for the just debtor. Of course, they can only be satisfactory where there is sufficient evidence that the parties are acting can- didly, and doing their best. Where this is believed, such arrangements are made in ordinary bank- ruptcies and in the calamitous case of the North of England Bank, even the official managers under the Winding-up Act, with the sanction of the Master in Chancery, have frequently resorted to it; as appears from their published report, in which they state that considerable sums have been thus obtained from the friends of shareholders. Looking at all these considerations, then, we can. not hesitate to advise both shareholders and credi- tors to consent to this principle relying, of course upon such an investigation as will prevent any abuse of the principle thus conceded. It is reasonable to suppose that there are many whose whole resources will be exhausted by a pay ment of five shillings in the pound on their total habthty and our correspondent, who is evidently well-informed upon the subject, states that this is the case. 1 hat being so, it is our decided opinion that, wherever the facts are clear, it will be infi- nItely better to give a full release. Our corres- pondent says, that the aggregate of the sums which may thus be raised is so considerable, that the said dividend cannot be made up without it. This cer- tainly appears a deciding argument, if those already advanced should have failed to produce entire con- viction. Wewouldagain,even upon the primary law of his self-preservation urge that no man should hold back from contributing to the dividend, because any of his neighbours do so. It is decidedly for his own interest that that dividend should be as large as pos- sible. When that has been paid-especially if paid immediately—much of the peril which now impends over the district, will have been removed men may then breathe more freely, and may set themselves more hopefully to what still remains to be done. And as to recusant shareholders, we agree with our correspondent, that they must be made to pay and it is a well ascertained fact, beyond all cavil or subterfuge, that there are means for so compel- ling them. Some persons have expressed a fear lest individuals able to pay,should make over their property to escape from liability but any well- informed lawyer will tell his client candidly, if he would not mislead him by an ignis faluus, which of course no honest man would do, that no transfer of property by a shareholder, made since the failure, will be valid. The above considerations are addressed chiefly to the shareholders. As to the creditors, whose noble generosity and forbearance have, perhaps, no parallel in the history of great failures in this country, (and an admirable illustration of which humane and enlightened con- duct was furnished at the meeting at our Town- hall, on Monday last,)—their view of the matter is less complicated. The one simple object before them is to make the best of their respective debts. This object, we are satisfied, they will promote by consenting to a release in such cases as those to which we have referred. Finally, we concur with our valued correspond- ent, in calling upon all parties to concentrate their energies upon the payment ot the first instalment, as being an object of much greater importance than those which may follow; and one, the prompt attainment of which is of the greatest moment. In our fourth page is inserted a full report of The meeting of creditors of the Monmouth and Glamor- gan Bank. Nothing that we can say will fully express that commendation they so richly deserve. They may rely upon it, bowever, that they h^yt
NEW YORK.
NEW YORK. Forty-five Children Killed, and a Hundred Wounded. Shortly after 2 o'clock, 08 Thursday afternoon, November 20, all New York was agitated by the report of a most dieadful catastrophe at Ward School No. 26, in Greenwich-aveoue, near Jefferson Market. The cause* of ihit fearful catastiophe we give as truthfully as could be ascertained on the spot, amid the great excitement and dense crowd that for hours pervaded the lXlh Ward Police Station, where most of the mangled and dead were taken to be recogoizrd by their heart broken parents. The building where the catastrophe happened it four stories high, the basement, which is on a level with the street, is paved with flag-siooes, aod is the play room of the scholars. The Primary Department occupied the second flcor the third floor was used by the more advanced scholars, aDd the front served as a lecture" oom, and was used at tbe examinations of the school. It appears that about 2 o'clock one of the teachers, a Miss Hartison, was taken with a fainting fit, and a cry for water was instantly made by some of the children who were standing neai her. Thii cry was mistaken for that of fire, and the whole room was instantly alive with the ciy of fire I fire I" The children all rosa en masse and rushed for the door. The atittm was given to the other rooms on the saroefloor, and communicated to those of the principal of the school and his assistants who oc- cupied the third floor and it was generally believed by all that the building was on fire, and accordingly all rushed for the doors of their respective rooms. Mr. McNully immediately placed hia.self in frout. of the door of his own room, and forbade any of his scholais to leave, and we hear that one of the other teachers did the same, The children of the other departments rushed out of the doors of their respective rooms, aod down the slairs, which were built in a spiial form, and commencing on the grouod floor was cairied up to the fourth story. The baonisti;i of this stair gave way about thirty feet abcye the grouod fluor, and piecipitaied hundreds of the children to the flagging of the first floor, killing and margling a large number. The news ot the dreadtul occu:reoce spiead like the wind 'f.rough the neigh bourhood, and hundreds of parents and friends rushed to the school-houie to hear the tidings of the safety or loss of then little ones. The crowd was so dense in a very short lime, that it was with great difficuliy that the Police, headed by Cap,. Lovett and his assistants, Capt. lalt and Seabring, could re- move the wounded and dying and dead from the building. Many of these were recognized by their parents and (rends, and taken to rhttir homes. We will here state more fully the cause of the fiist alarm. Miss Abby Harrison, principal of the female department, hAd been slightly indisposed for a few dtyf, but considered hersell quite able to attend to her arduous duties. At 2i o'clock, while sue was heariog the recitaiions of a large class, she was attacked with a momentary paralysis of the tongue she tried to speak, but only made an unintelligible noise in her effort to spehk her face was drawn into dtsagreeuble contortions, and her pupils became frightened, thinking that she was fainting. Hen e the cry for water," and immediately sfterward of fire," ant the consequent rush for the doors. Miss Harrison remained all the while comparatively helpless, and could do nothing to check the alarm. The alarm spread. The fire bells tolled. The police of the Nloth Ward (only a hundred yards distant) rustied to the spot; the firemen were there in a moment, but it was a very different thing from fiie that called for their services. When they first arrived, the children were still throwing themselves down the stairways; a hundred were piled in frightful destruction at the bottom the very doorway was barricaded with a pile of dead aud wounded. Help was sent for the police and firemen rutzhed up the stairs and forced the frightened children back, staiinned a guard, and then returned to save the wounded and dying. At this time the news beuan to "p-ead, and parents Rod friends came in breathless haste to the place, and the heart-rending scene which followed baffles desnoption. As each Iiieless or wounded body was borne to the slHtion-hou^e, it would be followed by a densd crowd of persons, all striving to assure ibetnselvts ,h., it was not their relative and when some distracted mother recognized the bleeding form of tier beloved child, her shrieks of agony wete enough to move the stouled healtlo tearful pity. But we need not d,tll upon these painful scenes. They continued up to a late hour of the night, until the lateof all had been ascertained. The result of this awful catastrophe, as nearly as we can to. certain. is as follows The number at children killed is forty.foar or forty-five. The number positively known to be wounded is more than sixty.
