FRANCE. A considerable sensation has been created in Paris by a quarrel between the President of the Republic atid his cousin, Napoleon Bonaparte, late Ambassador at Madrid, who proceeded to the Elysee, and had an interview with the President. A violent scene took place, and after a great deal of recrimination on both sides, Napoleon suddenly called the President a bastard, and told him that he was not only a kite's egg put into the eagle's nest, but that the whole of the Bonaparte family knew him to be so. The President flew to his sword, and declared that he would immediately fight the slanderer; but the attendants interfered. Still the President insisted that the stain on his honour should be wiped out by a duel, and appointed two friends to make the arrangements on his side for a meeting. In the meantime, however, a Council of Ministers was called, and it was re- solved that the duel should not be allowed. M. Odillon Banot, and all the Ministers, declared that the President, as the first magistrate in the State, could not fight, and that such a thing could not be thought of. Accounts from the provinces speak with certainty of the triumph of the Bonaparte candidates, and of the little hopes of the Legitimists. A new section has sprung up among the friends of the 0 In Regency in opposition to M. Thiers. This faction is said to be directed by the widow of a celebrated general of tho Imperial army, who was raised to the dignity of marshal under Louis Philippe. A great deal is said of the exertions of the deserters of the Rue de Poitiers to return the Prince de Joinville for five or six departments. This new division is imputed to M. Thiers. An express mode of dealing with deputies who happen to be arrested in tumultuous crowds has been established. They are to be brought, not to prison, but to the President of the Assembly, whose recognisance of them will act as a libera- tion. The debate on the projects of law relative to the feto of May 4 was carried in the Ministerial sense by a majority of 380—that is, there will be no amnesty for the present. The anniversary of the proclamation of the French Re- public by the National Assembly was celebrated on Friday with great pomp, the President of the Republic assisting. The Journal des Debats publishes a letter from Toulon of the 2nd of May, which says :—" The fleet, with the second portion of the expedition to Civita Veechia, sailed last night. Among the steam-frigates which have on this occasion gone again to deposit at Civita Vecehia the men, horses, and bag- gage, which they have taken on board, there is one which will' go to sea again immediately, and it is supposed it will be the Panama. The Government has, it is said, sent orders for a steam-frigate, fully armed, being prepared for a secret and urgent mission, and the Panama is the only ship in the expedition that has her armament and artillery complete. Secret instructions have been given to Captain Belveze. It is vaguely rumoured that Ancona is the object of this mis- sion. It is reported that the army of General Oudiuot has met, if not with resistance, at least with some delay, on its way to Rome, in consequence of a bridge being destroyed; but it is not said that the Romans have stopped to exchange shots with our men."
