Practican Satire.— The Albany Atlas says that at Syracuse on Saturday a fat negro weman, riggedout im new style, with a dress reaching just below her knees, flowing trowsers and a gipsey hat, &c., promenaded the streets, attract- ing considerable attention.—The dress was given her by some young gentleman of the city. Phe ridicule so profusely showered upon this new style of dress, in the newspapers and otherwise, is likely to prevent its adoption, but it would bea great improvement upon the prevailing fashion. Jenny Lryp’s Liseratity. — The Swedish Episcopal Church in Chicago has great cause of gratitude to Jenny Lind. The Rector, Rev. Mr. Unonius, has published a statement, from which i: appears that, besides $1,000 given by her to the church Jast year, she has contri. buted $2,000, partly to aid.in building a parsonage. and partly for the poor of the parish. She has also promised a commn- nion service of silver, and has given the rector $1,000 to pay some debts, to fur- nish the parsonage, and to effect an in- surance on his |:fe. The engagement between. Jenny. Lind and Barnum terminated suddenly on the Huh. Mr. Barnom acknowledges to a friend, it 1s said; who is not given to exaggera- tion, that he has made 8500000 by the Jenny Lind concerts, and says that- Jenny has realized not less than $320,000 in this country. The net proceeds of the ninety-four concerts do no not lack above $25,000 of a million of doliards.

The R. M. Steamer Europa arrived at Halifax on Tuesday the 24th inst., bring- ing Liverpool dates of the 14th. A_ per- usal of these adds but little to our pre- vious stock of European news,—During the week ending 15th inst., the genera} trade of the United Kingdom continued’ steady,with every prospect of better times for the future. The British Funds were progressing!y advancing, and during the week the rise in Conso!s for the Account amounted to one-and-a-half percent. A corresponding rise has taken place in most of the commercial operations.in the principal manufacturing and mereantile districts. The corn trade is active, and prices have suddenly.advaneced, Various rea- sons have been-assigned for this: but it }probably arises from the light stocks at present held by millers and farmers throughout the coumry, Be this as it may it is Satisfactory to be assured that the crops throughout the Kingdom, espe- cially in Ireland, give promise of being abundant. The demand for sttgar had improved, but other articles of groceries were not inrequest. Both tea and coffee have receded ia price. Rice, spirits, and spices, appear to have reached the lowest point. The trade in metals is depressed. The provision trade had improved. I'reights are without alteration: dead weigits io New York. 10s. a 12s. Gd.

We have news from India by way of Trieste to the 14th May from Bombay, and from Hong Kong: to the 23d of April. India was tranquil, but the western fron- tiers were stil] kept in terror by the robber bands in that locality. The general opinion, which is gaining ground, that the Republic will not be overthrown by Louis Napoleon’s treach- ery, has-caused the funds to improve. Haraburgh has been the scene of a se- rious riot, ia which the Austrian soldiers were called out, and fired upon the peo- ple. Kight persons. were killed . and eighteen wounded, The Austrian troops are quartered in the suburb of St. Paui, with.field guns charged and primed, and the exasperation of the people at Ham- burgh and Altona is wound vp to the highest degree. There is very little news from the rest of Germany. « At length,” says Wilmer and Smith, | “all the London and Paris journals have come to their senses, ard have discovered that the delusion in which they have so long indulged, and practised upon their readers, is altogether visionary; and the whole plot of foisting a Bonapartean Iin- perial dynasty upon the French people is deniolished. For a long period we have stood alone amongst the English press, refusing to believe the assertions so dog- matically delivered by the Londen Times and our other contemporaries, that Louis Napolepn was the man of ‘‘order,” who,as the future Emperor of the French, would controul and direct their destinies, and that this god of their idolatry wou'd be re-elected President in defiance of all the paper coustitations in the world. View- ing the struggle now going on ‘in France as purely indifferent spectators, — except so far as our English pitriotism, and our desire to preserve peace in Ku- rope, inspire the hope that the French will make a judicions choice,—we have always regarded the pretensions of Louis Napoleon as fata} to Republican institu- tions, We always said that his ambition and indomitable self-wili precluded ali notion ofthe representative principle gaining root underany form of Government in France, and that if raised to Imperial despotic power, he would not hesitate to plunge all Europe into a sea of blood if Lhe thought he could consolidate his power by seducing the imagination of the milli- ons. ‘I'he London Times, perceiving that any further attempt to hoodwink the French is now impossible, frankly con- fesses “ that all hopes ofa fusion or ad- jusiment of difficulties are materially. weakened if not entirely at an @nd.” Ln the same formal article they conclude hy repeating “the hopes we have sometimes FAINTLY. expressed of a pacific deliver- ance from these difficulties. are consider- ably diminished.” When we reflect that for many, months past we have had _no- ‘thing bat the strongest assurances of Louis Napoleon’s certain success dinned in our ears.day after day by our contem-* porary, we have something more thana FAINT notion of the correctness of the judgment of the Times upon foreign poli- tics. Inthe elaborated speeches deliver- ed in the bureaux respecting the question of revision, not one man has ventured to hint the possibility of a. medification of the Constitution, witn a. view to pave the way fur Louis Napoleon to the Imperial throne. M.d» Broglie and his. friends would permit him to enjoy his present po- sition with the object of keeping out the ‘ulira-Republicans ; but beyond the fear of anarchy, they have no one object in ‘comnon in, supporting Louis Napoleon. M. de Broglie has deen appointed chair- man of the Committee, M.

The T'reasurer and his representatives from the several divi- sions met at Bedeque on Thursday even- ing, when the state of the poll from each place was ascertained to be as follows :— _ Pope: Conroy : Lot }9, 75 51 Lot 25, 45 52 Lot-26, >: «98 55 Lot 27, &8 9 Tryon, 85 48 316 Ae eave Majority, 101!!! When we take into account the mani- fold influences used by Dr. Conroy's: friends to carry this election in his favour —the large amount of money that has been squandered in the purchase of li- quors, &c. to bribe the constituency — the professional services which the Doc- tor has gratuitously dispensed toa great many of the electors, for a long time past, . ‘and especially during the last two or three months, when sickness has every. where prevailed to an alarming end un- precedented extent,—and, further, when we consider the great personal regard in which Dr. Conroy is held as a generous, landlord, and as a professional man,—the return of the Treasurer by a far greater majority than he commanded over the Doctor at the Jast genera] elecjion, can- not but be regarded as a most Convincing proof of ‘the growing intelligence of the country, and the desire to test the effica- cy of that fora of Government late.y coa- ceded to the Colony. Most heartily do we rejoice at the result of this election ; not because Dr. Conroy (whom, as an individual, we respect) has been again rejected by the constituency ; ‘but because the party,—into whose hands he foolishly committed his interests.. when he knew that at heart they had no real regard for, or confidence, in mia,— have been tanght another salutory iesson;. for if the return of Messrs. Warburton and Pope, in spite of powerful aids and undue influences, carries. with it any significance,—it is, that-the pe opie in the ‘country are- firmly attached to Libera! principles, and regard with ablorence the views and designs of the Obstructives.
