LATER FROM FRANCE.
New York, May 12.
The ship Citizen, Capt. Merchant arrived yes
terday, from Havre- She sailed on the 13th ult
and brings Galiguaui’s Messenger of 11th, aud
the Journal du Havre of the 12th.
These papers place it in our power, to contin
ue to report the debates of the French Chamber
of Deputies, on the subject of the American In
demnity, two days later than we had before re
ceived them. We on the last arrival, gave the
opeuiug debate of the 9th April, wo now give
that of the 10th from Gaiignani, and of the lltli
translated from the Havre Journal. The most
interesting feature in these del ates is the amend
ment ptoposed by M. Bignon to reduce the ap
propriation to 12,000.0001', in lieu of the requir
ed 25,000,000f. It seems to have excited some
attention and we therefore translate the oninion

TO MISFORTUNE.
As experience finds our sorrow? come
Not as spies but as floods they run;
And oft a farthing ; friendship sums
As round we see misfortune comes.
While up the 'adder man doth climb,
Around arc friends aud naught’s unkind;
But when afflictions his lot befall,
No longer friends on him do call.
But like the vulture around their prey
Their talonsfix, his worth betray;
Anti by injustice! Oh illegitimate birth,
A monster is horn for man to nunc.
With drafts like these upon our brains,
Hope for friendship may sigh in vain
Oh Virtue dead ! and onward Dourae!
From whence 110 traveller has e'er returned.
By poverty oppressed, the miad is fired,
And friendship sinks when aid’s required .
While mail aloof unnatural stauds.
Alone the euemy of him to brand.
Iti poverty too, small errors, how large they grow,
While in wealth abounding none do show ;
Or if. by wealth are no longer seen,
With gewgaws Hid and friends to screen ;
But strip the clonk, the statue bare.
And then their censure none will spare;
While the trunk forsuccor to sustain
From man to man may plead in vain.
For from experience we learn, but late too oft,
The friendship of some, by interest lost,
As down iho'curreut against the tide
Our barque is doomed perhaps to ride.
Oh candor thou, 0I1 how nicknamed !
With falsehood holding oft the reins ;
While Friendship—a name 1 would
Blot from memory ifl could—
See merit by Iter oft borne down with grief,
While nature mourns, oh sad relief;
And melancholy sits as brooding o’er
Man’s fate ; frail man, foreswore.
But again aroused, new dangers nigh.
The rudder shift, the oars apply;
As 011 the Breakers you’re driven fast.
With the gale increasing your hopes to blast;
A desperate effort again you make
To stem the current, tho waves to break ;
While wreckers are seen upon the beach
Your barque to plunder, your purse to loach;
For help you cry, the barque rebounds
And the sea, with danger still resounds;
While tho wreckers shout; the gale’s increased
To the banqiul they, and preparo tiie feast;
But still the sound ! her crew implores,
Your aid oh wreckers! her rights to restore ;
And beckoning you, for help they cry;
While unnatural man; their entreaties fly—
With a willing ear ; you listen all
To the idle winds that blow along.
Their sorrrows marks their fate rejoice.
As on the billows their barque is tossed—
But lo ! she rights! the haven she ncar.i.
Tho gale is spent; the creio is cherished;
For help nolouger, in vain they implore,
But happily leached the wonted short—

mon in tiie course of events, that a diplomatist

obtained ir, he should exaggerate the conse
quences of his success. We will not say it is cus
tomary for every man to exaggerate his own
merits, and tiien when the cause has bcen-gained

one. We will put aside tin's explanation which
perhaps would be as correct a one as any other;
but wliat we should like to ask M. Bignon and
Mr. Rives himself is how it happens that if 25
millions arc not due. and if the payment of 25
millions would pass the legitimate amount of the
debt by 10 millious at least, how it happens, we
say, that the Amcrcnn Commissioners for liqui
dating, tiie claims acknowledge a debt of 15 miff-
ions of dollars, or 92 millious of francs ? Who
aye we to believe, Mr. Rives or tiie American
Commissioners? Mr. Rives with great self-com
placency says, I have obtained more than was

A Bull Fight with Steam.—A few days since,
as the locomotive steam engine was passing a-
long the Columbia Rail Road, the engineer es
pied a noble bull driving across the field, appar
ently to give Battle to the machine. lie was
coming at the top of his speed, his tail stuck in
to the air, and his head down as if for iran.-edi-
ate attack. As the hull errant rushed onward,
the director checked the car, and received the
blow on the front wheel. The animal recoiled
several steps—the puffing of the steam pipe
stented to challenge him to a second onset, aud
on lie came, bellowing and tearing up the earth,
while his eyes seemed to shoot forth banefnl
fire. The engineer thought tha: his safety eon-
sisted in moving—he therefore pit’ on the whole
head of the accumulated steam, and the re
started like wind. The enraged beast struck
short of bis aim, he missed his footing, and rol
led down a high embankment, to the infinite
gratification of those who had watch Iris behav
