FRANCE. THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY. The President communicated to the Assembly the result of the ballot which had taken place in the Bureaus, for the election of its six Vice-President:, and two Secretaries. The following Vice-Presidents were returned:— George Lafayette 467 Corbon 453 Lacrosse 349 Armand Marrast 331 Cormem. 295 Portalis 290 The two Secretaries were re-clectcd-M. Oscar Lafayette by 487 suffrages, and M. Pean by 302. The next order of the day was the decree presented on Monday, by the Minister of Finance, relative to the conclu- sion of a loan of 150,000,000f. with the Bank of France. The first article, authorising the Minister to contract that loan, and the second, empowering him to transfer as a gua- rantee to the Bank income of the Sinking Fund to the amount of 75,000,000f. and to dispose of forests of the State to that of 75,000,000f. more, were passed, the opponents only ob- jecting to the sale of the forests. The discussion on the project of decree opening at the Ministry of Finance a credit of 3,000,000f. annually duriag ten years, for the purpose of encouraging the principle of association among labourers, was then proceeded with and adopted without any opposition. The Reporter of the War Committee ascended the tribune, and stated that it had approved the proposition of M. Remilly relative to the establishment of a camp of 50,000 men in the Champ de Mars, It had, however, modified it, and recommended that the effective military force, perma- nently stationed in Paris and its environs, after the 20th instant, should not be under 50,000 men. General Cavaignac, President of the Council, replied that the executive power had not waited the order of the Assem- bly, but taken upon itself the execution of the measure. There were at present 50,000 men in and about Paris. He pledged himself shortly to lay before the Assembly a general project for the defence of the territory. M. Trousseau next asked General Cavaignac if it was his intention to continue much longer the state of siege, and the suspension of the journals whose presses had been placed under sequestration. General Cavaignac replied that a Government should be very confident of the assent of the country to assume the re- sponsibility of such a measure. But he felt so energetically supported by public opinion, that he did not hesitate to de- clare that the state of siege should be still maintained for some time. Its application was so mild that it could inspire no uneasiness. The relaxation of the measures relative to the press, would depend on circumstances. M. de Lamartine has addressed the following letter to the Coiistittitionnel:- SIR,-From respect for the crisis of my country, as well as from respect for the public good sense, I let pass without answer- ing it, the flood of malevolence, calumnies, and absurdities which always submerge for some time the names, the acts, the intentions of the men whom events elevate or precipitate during a revolution. Light will, however, make its way, and will show each fact and each man in their true character. I am not impatient for justice, for I doubt not the future. "But I read this moment, in your number of the 6th of July, a fragment of an article taken from the Debais, in which the de- lirium of calumny is pushed to the following imputations 'In the latter days of February, the paving stones were hardly replaced when the new Government thought of-re-erecting, in case of need, the barricades against the National Guard, and against the part of the population, which it pretended was animated with a spirit of reaction, an accusation which henceforth is applied to all the friends of social order. At that time a battalion of barricades was secretly formed, of which the members were to serve as in- structors in all the quarters, and who taught them theoretically the art of constructing barricades with the utmost possible rapidity, and that of placing them to the utmost advantage. The barricades were marked on the plan of Paris. The edifices, the public buildings were tracked out which were to be marked out as cen- tral citadels. After this, no one will wonder at the able combina- tions displayed by the insurgents of June. They followed out a plan traced out for them undt.r the auspices of the Government itself.' I avow that, for the first time, the reading of these odious lines has made me depart from that silence which I had imposed upon myself till the coming of the day for explanation. To see myself, for my part, transformed into a professor of civil war, and a preparer of carnage-I who have every day for the last four months offered my breast to spare a drop of blood of my fellow citizens There is no answer-there is only a cry of indignation, which rises from the bottom of the soul, and which I pray you simply to register. Receive, sir, the assurance of my perfect con- sideration, LAMARTINE, Ex-member of the Provisional Government, and of the Ex- "Ex-member of the Provisional Government, and of the Ex- ecutive Commission of Government. "Paris, July 6,1848." The number of persons arrested in consequence of the in- surrection amounts to about 10,000. The vote of the Assembly on Wednesday is understood to have led to the resignation of M. Carnot, and the substitu- tion, as Minister of Instruction, of M. Vaulabelle, himself an undoubted, though not an ultra-Republican. The vote is considered a pi oof of the rising influence of the party, composed principally of old deputies, which holds its meet- ings in the Rue de Poictiers. It was in consequence of a recommendation from this party that the Government re- solved upon foiming a camp of 50,000 troops in the neigh- bourhood of Paris. The site said to be fixed upon is the plain near St. Maur, which General Lamorieiere on Tuesday inspected, in order to point out its position and arrangement. From the same source, however, from which we derive this information, we learn that the army of the Alps is not to be encamped near Italy, but to march on Italy. At present the Poictiers Club is strongly urging the Government to adopt effective measures for the suppression of the most dan- gerous of the clubs, and for the regulation of the press. The examination of the draught of the new constitution was adjourned in the Committees of the National Assembly on Wednesday, and the Bill on Education was discussed. There were several objections made to this bill, particularly on account of the expense entailed by it. Several Repre- sentatives, but particularly the Abbe Fayct and MM. Fa- vart, Maissiat, and Coulman, criticised the bill as restrictive on liberty, and as not giving a sufficient impulse to the pro- pagation of moral and religious ideas, The annual expense of such a system of instruction was estimated at from 50,000,000f. to 75,000,000f. (E2,000,000 to £ 3,000,000.) Nineteen insurgents were taken out of a cellar in the line St. Antoine after the fight in the Place Baudoyer (behind the Z3 Hotel de Ville), and, with the exception of one who escaped under a shower of balls, all were shot. The circumstances attending this execution, for such it was, were appalling, and recalled Lamartine's description of the massacre at the Abbaye on the 2nd of September, 1792. Some of them at- tempted to parry or escape the shots aimed at them, but one of them, exactly like the first of the Swiss who fell by the' hands of the butchers of September, presented himself erect and full front to the fire.—Times. The Paris papers of Sunday announce the death of Gene- ral Duvivier, who was Wounded on the 25th ult. at the en- trance of the Faubourg St. Antoine, and died on Saturday morning at the Military Hospital of the Val de Grace. It appears that he disregarded his wound at the commence- ment but inflammation and fever set in, and ultimately lock jaw, which terminated his career in the 54th year of his age. The death of General Duvivier, the cowardly nightly assassination of sentinels', particularly at Mont- martre, and the attempt, to murder a poor young lad, a Moveable Guard, at noonday in the Rue St. Martin on Friday, had revived the public indignation at the atrocities of the insurgents. The Journal des Debats publishes the following letter from M. Gamier Pages, signed likewise by M. Pagnerre,. former Secretary-General to the Provisional Government Paris, July 6. Sin,-Your journal of the day before yesterday contains an article which we cannot suffer to remain Smanswered. As loug" as we formed part of the Government, we thought it necessary to' maintain silence in presence of all the attacks of the journals. At present, our duty is to reply when facts are disfigured, and when public opinion may be set astray to the detriment of order and truth. We consequently declare to you that the details contaiaetl in your articles on a plan of barricades which the Provisional Go- vernment are said to have arranged against the National Guards,, and which the insurgents of June borrowed from it, are all false. We give the most formal contradiction to all the statements yott have made on that head. We pray you, in the interest of the j public, still more than in ours, to publish this declaration in your' next number. Accept, sir, the assurance of our distinguished consideration. "GARNIER PAGES, PAGNERBE." The Journal des Debats defends itself by quoting a para- graph from the Lien Public of the 2nd inst., in which the1 fact of a plan of barricades having been arranged after the revolution of February is stated. The Journal des Debats admits that it added under the auspices of the Govern- ment;" but it contends that it was justified in doing so, as- it is the natural deduction from the article in the Bien Pub- lie. The Journal des Debats says, in conclusion, that it was mistaken, and so much the better, and that it hastens- to acknowledge it. It regrets but one thing, and that is- that M. Lamartine did not address a contradiction to the Bien Public. FUNERAL OP THE ARCHBISHOP OF PARIS.—This melan- choly ceremony went off in perfect order, but with little pomp. The body of the deceased prelate, attired in his sacred ornaments, and borne on a sort of couch by eight National Guards, was preceded by the whole of the Parisian clergy and other religious bodies of the capital, and by a deputation of Representatives of the people. The couch on which the' remains of the Archbishop were exposed was surrounded by the bishops who officiated in the funeral service; the proces- sion was completed by a body of National Guards and regu- lar troops. The funeral train entered Notre Dame Cathedral at half-past 11 o'clock in the morning, having left the Arche- veche at about ten. The public were not admitted into the Cathedral. A long string of carriages were stationed in the neighbouring streets. The arms on the panels of the car- riage of the English Ambassador, who attended the ceremony, particularly attracted the attention of the crowd.

SPAIN. Civil war has commenced in Spain. A Montemolonist insurrection, headed by Cabrera, Elio, and Gomez, has bro- ken out in the Northern provinces. Elio had entered Navarre in the end of June and was then at the head of a. body of well-armed men, some hundreds strong. Cabrera has since joined him and published a proclamation, in which he says—" An avaricious,, false, and corrupt priiiee, taking: advantage of our divisions, in concert with a degraded princess, made an object of speculation of the Catholic throne of the Alfonsos and the Ferdinands. A matrimonial com- bination was schemed in the darkness of night; and the con- sequence of this combination is, that the crown that sur- passes in splendour every crown in the world may pass from the brow of women, who wear it without right, to that of a stranger without consideration, value, or title. France, already ashamed of having at her head the author of so vile a plot, has expelled him from her soil; while we Spaniards, looked upon as a people so proud, keep amongst us at the summit of power the author of this plot, and all her accom- plices, more than ever ready to profit by the fruit of their vile bargain." He calls Spaniards to the flag of Carlos Luis de Bourbon, and invites them to join him in the same val- leys and fields that witnessed his and their foimer exploits. MADRID, JULY 2.—The Gazette contains a Royal decree, countersigned by Senor Orlando. by which the exportation of gold coin or bullion is prevented, but travellers are allowed to take with them gold coin to the amount of 2,000 reals (£20) each. This measure is announced to be a tem- porary one, intended to meet existing circumstances. The accounts from Catalonia are chiefly occupied with notices and speculations about Cabrera's movements. Mr. Otway left for England by the mail yesterday; the other members of the legation have already left. Our accounts from Madrid are of the 4th instant. Gene- ral Prim had been removed from the government of Puerto Rico, and replaced by General Pezuela, who was himself suc- ceeded in the Captaincy-General of Madrid by Count Mira- sol. The Carlist chief, Alzaa, taken prisoner in Guipuzcoa, was shot at Tolosa on the 3rd. Letters from Barcelona stated that Cabrera and the Catalonian chiefs had united their forces at Samelas, but afterwards separated on the ap- proach of a column of the Royal troops. The Government had been informed that the Carlist General, Elio, entered Navarre on the 30tli ult.

ITALY. It is reported that the Italian war is about to be brought1 to an end by a treaty of peace, by which Lombardy and the Dutchies of Parma and Modena will remain in the posses- sion of Charles Albert; Savoy will be made over to France Sicily will nominate a son of Charles Albert King of that island, under the protection of Italy and the Venetian pro- vinces will form an independent constitutional state under the ex-Duke of Modena, and Austria will receive an indem- nity of four hundred millions, and at the same time be al- lowed to have a garrison at Mantua. Letters of the SOth ult., from the head quarters of the Piedmontese army, state that the aimy had again changed front. General Sonnaz, with 15,000, defended Rivoli, and observed the Upper Adige and the road from Verona to Pes- chiera. The Duke of Savoy, with the reserve—10,000 men —was stationed at Roverbello and Goito, before Mantua; and the King and General Bava, with the grand corps d'armce, (35,000 men,) were moving from Rovei 1,-eTio to Isola della Scala, with the intention of attacking Legnano on-the Lower Adige. The line of the Mincio was kept by the last reserve brought from depots in Piedmont, by the new levies of Lombardy, Parma, and Modena. Head quar- ters on the 30th were at Roverbello.

SAXONY. The sitting of the Second Chamber of the States of Saxony had commenced at Dresden on the 3rd instant, when their deliberations were interrupted by Dr. Braun, the President of the Ministry, who addressed the' Members as follows:- Saxony's noble Prince does not hesitate to acknowledge the decrees of the National Assembly, and, true to his given word, to resign the privileges of the Crown, a step necessary to obtain the unity of the great German fatherland. His councillors are authorised to announce this to the Chambers, and to demand their constitutional approval." The royal decree was then read aloud by the President of the Chamber. The whole Chamber then rose, with the exception of six mem- bitrs of the Left, and gave three cheers for Geimai.y, the gal- leries joining in the general enthusiasm.

DENMARK. Advices from Hamburgh and the Baltic bring the long- expected intelligence of the conclusion of an armistice be- tween the German Confederation and the Danish Govern*
