HASZARD'S GAZETTE, FEBRUARY 19. LOUIS NAPOLEON AND THE FRENCH. It required but little political sagacity to f0|'t‘U08. t the diflicultieo of Louis Napoleon would by no means be brought to a termination by his success in the grout object of his ambition. It required tact, prudence, coura e, and good fortune for such a man to change the temporary Presidentship of an un ular Re ubllc, into the horedihry dignity perors rip ; but all these high halities, admirably well as they may have been displayed, will need to be exerted in a far greater de ree, together with uiaiiy others equally essentia -—if he expect to secure his own happiness, and that of the country, which he has smiled himself to govern. Many s were his dificulties while merel Presidcnt——thcy are all increased a hundred d now that he is Em- peror. ‘Curiosity is sated—he has I't:‘tl(‘llk’(l the goal ; his foes and his friends know the best and the worst of him : his foes take the nieiisurc of his life, and wei h their chances against it ; while his friends c mour for the reward of their exertions in his behalf, and for the most part reckon their services at values impossible to admit, and inconvenient, if not dangerous. to deny. And these are, porha s, the least of the evils he has to confront. In ividual fees may possibly be conciliatcd, and iniportunate friends ma be_put off with instalments ; but nothing wil satisfy the great bulk-of the nation but the realization of hopes which the ablest and most honest of men would find it difficult to fulfil. Finance, that rosaic monster, is greater than Emperors, an more insatiable than their ambi- tion. A fair balance-sheet—the income equal to the expenditur&—a well-fed and a well-em- ployed multitude, these are the matters which wear, however haughty, can despise or neglect without the usual penalty—-liability to civil strife and im riding revolution. Already these dilliculties have commenced. A commercial crisis, staved oil‘ from day to day by incredible shifts, manoeuvres, and sacrifices on the part of the Government, threatens to burst over the country. The public securities, kept fur-titiously at a high nominal price, are finding, like water, their natural level. Their down- ward tendency—withaut a panic, but simply from the collapse of the energies and the can- ning that kept them at an unnatural rise—be- tokens the general sense of insecurity. There has no doubt been some increase in the occupations of the people in Paris 2 builders and house-decorators have been lar ly employed, and trade has to some considera le extent on- joyed the advantage of the comparative but forced quietude of the political world during the hist few iuonths ; but, with ii. system of tax- ation which is alread oppressive. and in face of a deficit of two millions sterling, with on ex- nditure estimated to be greater this ear,than it was during the year‘ that is st, y nearly 60,000,000 francs, and with the c anceu of a bad harvest all over Europe, it is im ssible not to fear that the first year of the trench Empire will be an anxious, if not a dangerous one, to France as well as to the Emperor. Upon the question of the Emperor‘s marriage, it is as yet premature to express an opinion. The French themselves, who are more interested in the mat- ter than the rest of Europe, do not seem to look upon it with much favour. The downward tendency of the Funds has, in the meantime, been aggravated by it.——IIlu.slroted London News. EPITOII 0!‘ NEWS. A Lonnozl Csuiicii.—.\‘i. Paul's Cathedral. in London, cost $7,000,000.

Proposition to procure an Act’ to enable the In- habitants of Charlottetown to assess themselves, for objects of local improvement. In accordance with a notification. published in the news pers, a meeting of the Inhabitants of Charlottetown, took place on Thursday last, for the purpose of taking into consideration the re- priety of endeavouring to procure an Act o In- co olion for Clurrloltr-town. The representa- tives of Charlottetown, the Hon. EDWARD PALIKII and Fasxcis Is0.\'(lWOR'l'I'l, Esq. presided. The meeting was a large one, and several questions, arising out of the main one, were discussed with "en! warmth and freedom—mingleil, per- haps, occasionally with too niucb of the spirit of rty and personal prejudice. he majority of the meeting, we are sorry to say, appeared to be decidedly op osed to an Ad of Incorporation, and the origina Resolution for the incor ration of the town was supersed by the fol owing amendment, viz : - “That application be made to the Legislature, for an Act to enable the Inhabitants to assess themselves, for objects of local improvement, and that a Committee be appointed to draw up a Bill, to be up roved of at a General Meeting of the Town, be ore itis submitted to the Legis- lature ; and that it be an instruction to such Committee, that all officers employed in the ex- nditure of such assessments should be elected y the rate-payrers, by ballot. “ That the own to be divided into words, and each ward to elect an Assessor.” Committee loyrrepare the BiII.—Mr. John Lon worth, John V illiams, D. Brenan, L. W. Gal , R. Hutchinson, J. Gainsford, G. Beer, II. Has- sard, J. N. Harris. - B means of such an Act as that contempla- ted y the above Resolution, many very desirable improvements may effected, and many impor- tant advanta es may be secured by the inhabi- tiints of Char ottetown ; but altogether they will certainly full very far short of the man public im rovements and advantages, material, moral an 'ndicial, what mi ht be secured to the peep e of Charlottetown y an Act of Incorpora- ion The extension and reservation of good order, reatcr security to li e and pro rty, summary redress for outrage, the imine iate removal of nuisances, the su ipression of nurseries or hot- beds for the growt and encouragement of ever species of infamy and villany, together wit many other social and moral improvements, either necessarily implied in the above, or which, itis obvious, would naturally arise out of them, are, we take it, the grand objects to be obhinod b an Act of Incorporation, and in fact, the onl o jects which are sou ht to be attained, tbrou h its agency, by all, we lieve, who most as r y desire its accomplishment. t is very true, that an Act of Incorporation would not be productive of umm'1wl- good. would here, as well as elsewhere, have its attendant evils ; but they would be found light in comparison with its many substantially bene- ficial results. ongst many of “ the friends of order," as amongst man who covet the oonsolations and eflts whic arise from virtuous friendship, the case appears frequently to be pretty much the some : “ All like the purchaiIe,—fcw the price will pay.” The Incorporation of Charlottetown would‘ certainly entail upon the inhabitants a certain annual amount of expenditure—varying with circumstances—for its support. :1 nd the constant, vigilant, and eflicicnt working of its miicliinery. Buta prehensions of excess in that respect,- uar ed against, in the first place, by most jea- ous and stringent provisions in the Act itself, as it ought to be,—-and, in the next, subjected, as it would be, to the most scrupulous public investigation,—-need not, and indeed, we think, do not, much alarm the many sculous and en- li litened friends of the measure amongst our fe low townsmen. Although, by the determination of the Public Meet' , the desire to have the Town incorpo- r , ppears to be suppressed for a time; we do nott ink it ought yet to be abandoned, as entirely hopeless. We are of opinion, that, if a Petition to the Legislature, praying an Act. for |—l 9 the Incorporation of the Town, were to be pre pared, and due diligence taken, by the friends of the measure, to procure signatures to it, the result would prove that I ration is earnestly ' by the great majority of those on whom the burthen of its sup rt would, in a dirert - priory point qfciew, fa most heavily ; and,th?r'd- fore, we cannot think it.wonld be wise to allow the present movement in its favor to subside without another efiort for its accomplishment. And, further, we beg to hint, to the friends of the measure, that, whatever op sition they may now have to contend with, ' ela will not strengthen them , and enfeeble their a versaries; but will positively have a contrary tendency. connection with this subject, we beglesve, both for ' ‘ fellow-‘ -"‘ ,tn thank our intnlll t and practical correspondent “ A ignd to provement,” for his valuable com- mmlogtlan, which we subjoin_ ; and to which we cordially invite the utter: an of our Town subscribers, ai_id,‘Eaners1ly, 0 every “ rieiid to 5...,-..,¢rn¢ur" in o place, into whose ads is iuoy toll.

Nor did Lord Grey understand in what manner the Le sla- turc intgnded to su ly that deficiency. t has been since rectificdliy the amended Civil List Bill, which recently received the Royal Assent.

The Hon. the Tansvuua opposed the motion, on the ground that, the Petitioner had not com- plied with the requirements of the Law. It would ap r that he had not cleared out his vessel at t e Custom House, and he now peti- tioned the House to out him a permission for violating the law. he authorities here had no means 0 knowing where these Fish were caught, or where they come from, and therefore, were ver properl treated as a forei article. he Hon. hfr. Loan thought it was not fair to condemn the Petitioner unheard. He states in his Affidavit appended to the Petition, that the fish were purchased from British subjects in Iouisburg, and if so, he thought he ought not to be deprived of the privilege of importing the same duty free, simply on account of absence of necessary formalities at the Custom Houie. He Mr. L.) was well aware that smuggling was too prevalent,but he thought the petitioner, in plhis instance, was only demanding his just ri ts gAfter some further conversation, it was agreed that the tition should be referred to a Coinniittee of t ree members, to examine the same and report thereon, vis : Messrs.
