In Ireland the repeal movement is Mill gsiug on. The Government ha dismissed Smith O'Brien fiom the magistracy, in consequence of the part he has taken in the repeal movements. The Queen, during the summer, will make an experiment of settling the difficulties in Ireland, by a visit to that gallantry will give her a favorable reception, but it will not maketliem forget the accumulated wrongs of their country. SPAIN. -A serious insurrection has broken out i Madrid.

It proved, however, unsuc eessfuh-' Thirty-four of the insurgents were shot. DENMARK. The Danes have blockaded the Ger-an poits. Its operation is so disad van-togeous to all the manufacturing districts ef Europe, that hopes are entertained that England and France would interfere aid put a stop to it. FRANCE.

The French coast lias been ordered to be put in a complete state ofile fence, and several new regiments have been ordered for that purpose. The triumph of Lamarline over the communists and other factions is complete. Ledru Rollin has retired from the Assembly, to which he was elected. Louis Blunc and Albert have also retired from puttie life. ROME.

The people of the Papal States are clamorous for war egninst Austria and have poured in their petitions to tlie rope for that purpose. The college of Cardi nals were assembled by the Pope for con sulfation and to winch he made a non committal speech, which caused immense feeling throughout the city. The muni cipal authorities of Rome went in procession to the Pope to demand an expla- i i if i i uauouoi ins policy aim 10 rucoir.meuu him to abdicate. The guards had orders to let no one, not even the Pope himself, leave tho city. The entire ministry resigned, but the Pope refused to accept their resignation.

On the 24th the excitement was very great. The Pope has been allowed until theJOih to miike his mind. Should ho then refuse, a Provisional Government would be estob-. liilied and tho Pope imprisoned. Later accounts stute tlmt the declaration of war against Austria has been revoked by tho Po)c; and that he had been imprisoned, but this needs confirmation.

Further skirmishes hud tuken pi nee between the Austrian nod Italian armies, which generally resulted in favor of the latter. The Austrian nrmy issiiidtobe ia a very critical situation. POSEN. Bloody conflicts took place between tho Hessians and Poles, on the SOlh and the Poles who had 200 men killed and 700 matle prisoners, defended themselves with desperate valor causing a loss of nearly one hundred killed nml wounded of their assailants. A similar fight nc-cured at Miloslaw, where the Russians suffered much from tho fire of the Polish Sharp Shooters, who picked out the officers.

Several hundred Polish soldiers Weloaging to the 18th and 19th Russian Regiments, had deserted and joined their countrymen. TEItSEC UTION oi tm JEWS it rnKSIIURG. The Jews had been atrociously treated, their household furniture dentroyed and they were tuken from ihuir shops. Tho plunder lasted 2-1 hours, vvliou the Jews, numbering 300 familes, retired ftom the town, at the request of the authorities, and encamped in the open air. At Sclossberg, even the Jewish Hospital has been runsacked, and thu sick were laken from their beds and badly treated, without respect to age or sex, while even the Jewish tombs have not been respected.

Military authority could not dispose sufficient force to prevent these acts ef vandulism. Lieutenant Field Mar-hal, the Count of Lomborg, was wound-ti by the people. MARKETS.

We with if pnisible to convince the people of lint county, who exlmid their support to neutral, often pretended lieutrul, pnpera, that "neutrality in politict it neutrality in religion and neutrality la God." Arrival officii. Scoil. Gen. Scotl arrived at his home, in N.

J. on Sunday week last. He reached the point unheralded and taking the first vehicle to be obtained, an open one-horse waggon, driven by an honest, good tern pered Irishman in his shirt sleeves, he reached home. A triumphal car, indeed, fur the gallant soldier, who has fought and won so many battles and added such glo ry to tho American arms! The following is the account given of his arrival: "As soon as the news of his arrival spread, movements were made for si least hoisting the flags and ringing the bells; but ben. Scott absolutely forbade ony such demonstrotion and Sunday was observed in all its wonted stillness and so lemnity.

The excellent and exemplary Rector of Rev. Cliauniug Moore, on his way to church, called to see the who soon after followed him to church. As the General's lull and commanding figure passed through the streets, hands were instinctively raised to the hat, and the hearty cheer could be read upon the half-opened lips, and the enthusiasm legible on every face was with difficulty repressed -but it was repressed by the enger and admiring throng that pressed around him. A single hat swung in the air, a single hurra, would have fired the whole village, and Greet ings, honest, loud and long, would have greeted the honored soldier tn bis home. Better as it was more in consonance with his character and wishos, more in keeping with the habits and feelings of the orderly and religious people among whom he lives and whose confidence and affection he shares.

But I cannot forego the mention of the scene presented in church, when the beautiful thunksgiving of the Episcopal service tor a sate return from sea was ead. Every auditor applied it every heurt joined in it and in the solemn and audible Amen at its close, was doctored the hcartfult gratitude of the whole congregation that tlieirfriend, their neighbor, tho eminent soldier and defender of his country, hud been conducted in sufety to the haven where he would be at this testimony in favor of my glorious brothers in the field, the Army ol Mexi co, and 1 congratulate you and them that the common object of their efl.irta and your hopes the restoration of peace is, in all probability, now attained. When the procession psssed through the streets of the City, they were literally lined wilh people, and the windows were filled with ladies eager to behold the great soldier of the age. The Tribune says: The General did not look so well as usual, and his voice in speaking indicated that he was not in possession of his ordi nary atiength. We trust that his stay among us may not only restore him to full vioor.

hut be full of eniovment ami leave behind the most grateful recollections of liberal hospitality exercised and eminent public services fully appreciated Had Gen. Scott not forbid any public demonstrations in his favor, or had he not avoided them, such a glorious recep tion would have been given him by his ndmiring and grateful countrymen, as would have made the Administration, who have endeavored to destroy him, fear and tremble at the rotribution that awaits them and which they then could easily discern Letters from Mexico. Locofoco papers almost weekly publish letters from the army in Mexico, for the purpose of making their readers believe that all our volunteers blindly adhere to the policy and meanness of the ad minis tration. These letters are either written hero at borne, come from some individual in the army begging favors of the party in power, or, if they come from honest vol unteers, have their meaning perverted Of the latter class is an extract of the let ter sent to the Eagle a few weeks since by a young aspirant for legal and politi cal fame in Walnut township. The broth er the individual requests us to say that there is not a word of truth, in the sense the author of the communication wishes to attach tn it, iu the extract.

He has received a number of letters from his brother and every one gives the lie to the imputation of the Eagle's correspondent. The latter lo us justly adds: "Some individuals have an opinion that they know everything and yet never learned any thing of what they should know." We merely add, the Eagle' i correspondent had a dozen chances of showing his patriotism upon the tented field and in the sickly climate of Mexico, and had he been imbued with half the "love of country," which his friend in Mexico possesses, instead of now being at home, attempting to give a false coloring to his friend's views, he would be side by side with him in Mexico. He, at the time volunteers were wanted, had no earthly excuse why he'shuuld not "show his faith by his works." Colonel Wellcr. In the Eagle of week before last, the reader will find a paper certificate from Dr. Chamberlain, basely slandering a James B.

Milliken and lauding Col. Welter to the skies. We shall publish Milli on's reply in a short timo. In the mean while we notice one of the Dr. 's laudations In his letter, he says, "spurring his gallant charger in the front, he (Col.

Wei-ler) shouted at the top of his voice, "Onward! my brave boys, tlie black rascals have shot your Colonel Onward." Il tion in other quarters. Indeed, there are already signs of coming dissension. The Hon. Gentleman from Michigan bid high for Southern support- he went so far that he rendered himself unpopu lar among the Barnburners of New York who, even after his nomination, -would not pledge him their support. This fac tion of the Locofoco party of the Empire State constitute by far the most active poitioti of the party, and without their assistance, no Locofoco can get the vote of that State.

The New York Pott, one of the most influential papers of the State and for a long lime the acknowledged organ of the party, has already spoken in terms of condemnation of the proceedings of the Convention and plainly intimates thutit will take strong inducements, probably more than President Cass could offer, to wheedle the barnburners into his support. It is virtually conceded by Lo-cofocos themselves that New York is lost to the party. So much for the North. When we look South, we see similar signs of dissension. The delegates from Florida and Alubama expressed strong doubts whether these States could be carried by Gen.

Cass, even wilh Gen. Butler on the ticket. They admitted that Cass' bid for their voles was reasonable, yet they entertained strong doubts whether the people, whom they represented, would be satisfied with his present position upon the Slavery extension question. Satisfied or not, he dure not go beyond it. He dare not make another concession to the South, for his own party in the North would immediately forsake him.

For conceding what he did, the Barnburners Oeii. Scotl- Nuiivelsni. The Editor of the Scioto Gazette, after devoting a short paragraph to the demonstration in favor of Gen. Scott, closes as follows: 'Underthe head of expediency howev- er. we conceive there is an insuperable objection against the nomination ol (jen.

Scott. He was once the nominee of the Native Americans, for the Presidency, if ice rightly how tar he approved of the pro8criptive tenets of that struggling faction, we do not now recol lect. This matter is a proper subject of inquiry wilh those on whom the duty of selecting candidates will devolve. We have hitherto considered the Editor of the Gazette as one of the most can did and reasonable of Gen. Taylor's sup porteis.

We do not know what has come over the spirit of his dream, probably some of the recent attacks upon him has somewhat disturbed his thoughts, else be would not have made such an attack upon one of the oldest, purest and best Whigs in the country and based it upon a mere indistinct remembrance. Before he had made the charge, would it not have been better for him, a Whig speak ng of a Whig as good as himself, to have made it "a proper subject of inquiry?" Or, has he, with some others we miijht name, determined to find no virtues save in his own favorite! "If we rightly remember" is a very poor excuse for one good Whig to base charge against another, whom he admits to be equally as good. Probubly the Editor had not at the time read the reply of Gen. Scott to Alderman Franklin which we publish to-day. At any rate we commend to him the "matter" as proper subject of inquiry" and hope that before he reiterates the charge he will find some better than the hypothetical reason "it we rightly remember to base it upon.

Ei In reply to the Eagle's proposition to publish the letters of Secretary Marry and Gen. Scott we have only to soy that we have no disposition to crowd our col umns with articles that three-fourths of our readers would not peruse; but should we deem it necessary in future to do so, we shall gladly avail ourselves of an op portunity to induce the Eagle to publish a little truth in its columns, though it be accompanied by a mass of error and false hood. We do not deem the discussion yet closed.

The article in yesterday's Eagle reiterating the proposal and saying that, though some time had elapsed, no answer hud been received, is altogether too ear ly. The proposition was only made last week and the Editors know or ought to know, that we most always make up our form before we receive their paper at least they have had dezen npportuni ties to find it oat. rejected him conceding more, even doughfneed Ohio Locofocoism would not swallow him. So much for Alabama and Florida. Let him try to gain these States and he loses certain Maine and New Hampshire and most likely one or two others.

South Carolina was represented in Convention and her voto cast by one in dividual, who had no authority sove an appointment from a village meeting Calhoun's organ, and of course the great Carolinion himself, gave timely notice that the State had not delegated her au thorily to any one and of course would not consider herself bound by nny action ofthe Convention. Afterthe nomination the delegate himself did not presume to pledge the vote of his State for the nnmi nee. No one con do this but Calhoun himself he has not done it nor is it ex pected that he will do so. So much for the popularity of Cass New York gone certain South Carolina not to be depended upon and Florida and Alabama only certuin in case the Candidate makes another display of ground and lofty tumbling, which will cause an equal number of States in the North to leave him iu disgust. Cuss never would have been nominated, had the party not got sick and tired of an "outsider" iu their nomination of Polk; and even notwithstanding this weighty reason, he would not huve been the successful candidate, hud the Convention not have rejected the Barnburners of New York.

The Convention itself was composed of a variety of combustible material, which every once and a while would burst into a flame and create considerable excitement. Houston, Yancey, Hanne- gan.Turney, and a number of others were kvpt busy in allaying excitement and it re quired all their talent and skill to induce the members to act harmoniously. It was a glorious sight for au eyo-witness; but it is useless lo attempt to spread the scenes upon paper. We only await the action of our Con vention when we shall go into the canvass with colors flying and certain of victory The Whigs have reason to be thankful that their opponents have presented them with such a ticket- one worthy to con tend with and yet easily beaten. Let them go into the contest with their might and strength, no matter who be their nominees, and a glorious and decided victory awaits them.

Ohio will be one of tho principle bat tle fields: The Loco Tocos will move heaven and earth to carry this State to balance New York. They will spare no means, fair or foul, to accomplish their purpose, and it becomes the Whigs to be up and active. No member of the parly can romain inactive no one can become neutral. Let the Whigs but be true to their duty; let them raise the standard of the party, prepared to plant il upon the battlements of the enemy and all will be well well for us, our posterity, our country and the cause of humanity. Whut honest man dare shrink from a contest fraught with so much importance! Free Soil.

Kentuckiansare taking a decided stand against more slave territory. In that State, which might have been second to none in the Union in wealth, in popula tion, in resources, the people feel the blighting effects of their social and political system. Kentuckians are noble- hearted, chivalrous, and bad they been left alone slavery would now have been abolished in their State. At a Taylor meeting, in Maysville, held a few days since, one speaker said: "the question of slavery will figure largely iu the coming Presidential canvass, and that he was hesrtly opposed to the extension of slave territory." He received the manifest approbation of his audience. Another speaker followed, a delegate to the coming Whig National Convention, who after some appropriate remarks suid: "iu reference to the acquisition of any more slave territory, I loathe, abhor the idea." He was, says a correspondent of The Examiner, applauded by the lurge audience even "to the echo." The speaker continued and he is a slaveholder: "to oppose the introduction of a so-ciul curse into territory where it is not, and to oppose the addition of political evils to the nation whose interest he sought these were his solemn convictions of duty and the unshaken purposes of his future action." These aro the true friends of Freedomfriends of emancipation where emancipation is needed.

So is it all over the country.

The people are anxious, despite the opposition ofthe Administration, to welcome the old General from the fields of his toil, his glory and fame.

They at a ml Condemned! To-day we publish the views of the Locofoco Presidential Candidate upon revolutions. Here we add the opinions of another, the editor of the New Orleans Delta.

Let this authority not be denied. For two years, the paper has been quot ed, praised, received, as good authority by the democracy. Now, that it makes against the Revolutionists of our State, let them not reject it. "If the people violate and disregard their own laws if they resort to other meansqf accomplishing their purposes than those provided in the political systems framed by themselves then hss our Re publican Government given way to the worst tyranny to which society can be subjected." This is true in every sense: All disorganizes, all revolutionists, in a free country, the laws of which are made and sanctioned by the people them selves and provisions made for their constitutional test, their alteration or repeal, are the worst enemies of their country and the strongest friends of tyranny.

The Washington Correspondent of the Philadelphia North American says: "I understand that the proposition of Gen. Worth, which was submitted tn the Court of Inquiry, to withdraw his charg es against Gen. Scott, has beon accepted by the administration and therefore that all proceedings in the case will be quashed." Thus vanishes into the air the amnke, that was raised to cover up the "fire in rear."
