Loate Blaiicon iheFrcneh Usurpa tion. Absolutist Scheme to Divide Europe into three great empirei. — The London Timet alarmed and callt on Ihe United Stale!.— -The opinions of such a man as M. Louis Blanc, at this moment, upon the crisis in France, important, as lie ex presses the sentiments of the Socialists and republicans of Fiance. In < long letter from the pen of Louis Blanc, l.e declares that 1 nothing finished-cr-a mock Caesar, j supported by lijs drunken praetorian I guards, cannot impose himself on France.’ I Be then says tjiere is nothing surprising in the fact that an army ol 100,000 men I should have held Paris ip check, as Par is was disarmed, without ammunition, and without pikes ; and yet, if the fau bourgs had thrown themselves en masse info the insurrection, either the army would have been destroyed, or Louis Na pnlen would have reaped the execrable distinction of remaining erect amid corp ses and mins; but the wuikmen did not. engage in the struggle, and this infori'ja* tion Louis Blanc has received from his QWtt party in Paris. ♦ The reason why they did hot romp forth is that they were sickened and dis gusted with the National Assembly, and they had no sympathy for M. Thiers who had called them the ‘vile multitude nor with Cavaignac, who in June fired upon them ; nor with Cliangarnier, who could Insult them with the whip, as well as Strike (hem with the sword. Placed be tween the matitainaece of the robber law nnd the pretended restitution of tot til sal suffrage; between the danger of monatvl.ini restoration and that of a it repolic—the people retired, leav ing tlhe field to the two tyrannies, of which one would serve to destroy the oth er.’ Louis Blanc refers to some of the ■measures of the <4ssenihly, w hipb pro voked the crisis, and then declares that this bourgeosie and the people must be nniied to uphold one cause, and all is then saved. Be shows that the grand scheme of ilw,monarchies of Europe is to divide Europe into three great empires, and Louis Blanc and his party are by no means alone in their opiniou. He says: * The sacrilegious plan, of w hich the sack of Paris is the commencement, is to form a Russian empire, extending to Constaniiuople-~-an Austrian and a French empire, w ith the addition of Bel gium. From this holy alliance a war would arise against the democratic par ty, to extinguish what the absolutist pow ers call ‘ the revolutionary flame,’ or whatever lights the human spirit on the way of progress. For the accomplish ment of all ihis, Louis Napoleoo has de livered France into the hands of French Cossacks. Louis Blanc promises, in concluding his letter, to bring forward proofs to the reality of this scheme, and silso to show ‘ the abominate complisiiy which hinds to the fortune of the Empe ror Nicholas the ambition ol Louis Bona parte.’ The London Times, of the 12th, ex* presses a similar opinion, and looks to the United Slates for assistance. It speaks of * the great conflict between military absolutism and constitutional government, widen every day assumes a more serious aspect, which every day draws nearer to this island, and which will one day divide the whale world.’— The Times then says that there are no two States in the whole world, and never have been, so bound to one another, so mutually beneficial, and so able to work together, as the British empire and Uni ted States. l At preseut, it seems impos sible but that the whole of the continent of Europe should fall into the hands of military despots ; it seems equally impos sible that we, w ith our American brethren, should lose our institutions or our enthu siasm for liberty. Here, then, are the two parlies in the great cause that threat ens to divide and convulse the whole world.’ The Times asks what is to be done? —7n case anything should happen to England, in the way of unmerited in dignity and oppression, she has only to call on the United States, The Times is evidently alarmed ! Interference in European affairs. —A London correspondent of the New York Commercial, alluding to Kossuth doc trine of non-intervention and to the probable policy of the liberal nations, says No interference to check the outrages of the Absolutists ui|| be at tempted unless it ran be made as peace’ fully and effectually as when a body of police arrests a felon. If ever France, Belgium, Holland, Sardinia. England and the United States should be induced combine, the word ‘stop* to such iniqui ties as the Russian descent upon Hun gary would, it is lobe presumed, prove Sufficient. Even an interference, how lever, to that extent would have to be deplored, since it would be far less effect ual than the utter ‘crumbling away of power, which takes plare when a govern ment, which is execra'ed by the wot Id’s opinion, is left its own devices. At the present moment, to those who trust in the judgement of Heaven, the doom of Aus tria appears so certain that it could be •versed by uothing except the vitality that would be aroused in her by an at tempt on the part of her external ene mies to precipitate it.” From the Boston Cultivator. - Female Education. It is the opinion of inanv, that because females are not called upon to perform the duties of office, to tread our Senate halls, to make law s foi* our country , and to rule over us as a nation, that it is of little importance whether they have learn’ ing or not As long as they can per form the duties of the kitchen, wash and iron, make a good short-cake, get three meals a day, knit and darn, stockings, rock the cradle, and patch the boy’s old clothes, it is a',! that is necessary. This 1 think is a sad mistake. Js it nm as infi|)o.-tanl that she whom God has given to man for a help-meet for tile, to comfort and console him in all the trials ami afiltctjon through which he may be culled to pass, to act with him upon the stage of life, to struggle with him thro’ lime, and to asreud with him to the king dom of hlesseduess and bliss—she whom God has endowed with a mind a; capa ble of improvement ns that of man—l say, is it not as important that she should have access to those fountains of lenrninsr, from whence she may derive that knowl edge which will improve the mind, strengthen the understanding, and ena ble her more easily to discharge the du ties devolving upon her, and fit her for enjoyment and usefullness in life, and lor happiness beyond the grave. Because it is not alloted to woman to discharge the duties ol office, to plead at the hnr, or to proclaim from the pnljiit the truths of salvation, anti to unfold to a dying world the unsearchable riches Christ, is no reason why she should not be as well educated as mao, 1 have often heard the remark, and 7 believe it too, that “ they who rock the cradle, rule the world.” It is to the mother of the immortal Wash ington, that we aie indebted for the lib erties which we enjoy. It was from her, that during bis boyhood days he received those instrur lions which made him a great and good man, and entitled him to the name of “ Father of his country.” His name is dear to every American, and will ever be found recorded on the pages of Qur history, Many of our great and good men may well boast of their educa ted mothers. I have often heard ministers of the Gospel remark that it was owing to the instructions of a pious mother that they became such, Seldom do we meet with a well educated woman who is not a pi ous woman j nor often do we meet with a young manor woman who had a pious and well educated mother, that is not a respectable cilixen. The influence of a mother over her children, is greaier than that of the father. They will more read ily listen to her instructions, than those of a father. Why then, is it not necess ary and important that the mother should be as well educated as the father, that she may rightly instruct her sons and daughters, that they may be respected in the community, be useful in their day and generation, ornaments in society, and a blessing to the world ? Killingwurth. STEVE. Baltimore, Dec. 9. Kossuth openly expresses his dissatis faction at the course Congress has adopt ed, and speaks of returning to Europe. In the U. S. Senate, to-day, Mr. Foote declared his intention ol returning to the Senate a y ear henre.

He expressed his joy at the triumph of these measures.

The House took up, yesterday after noon, the Bill introduced by Mr. Tift, to lend the bonds of the State to the amount of $200,000 to aid in building a railroad from Oglethorpe, or some other point on the South-western Railroad, to Albany, in Baker county. It provides that tire bonds shall be issued when an equal amount ol solvent private subscript lions shall have been obtained, a till that the State shall have a lien upon said pri vate subscriptions, together with the road and all its appurtenances, for the repay ment and( the bonds when they become due, and for the interest upon the same.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. TUESDAY MORNING. A good deal of time was consumed this morning on a motion in reconsider a Bill which was lost yesterday, for die relief of a Mr. Cameron, of Troup county. The amount involved was small, and per haps a hundred times its value was lost to the Stale in the time consumed in its con sideration. I wonder some of the mem bers who seem to consider themselves the special guardians of the treasury, Mo not devise, or at least attempt to devis'e some means of remedying this evil. Ido not allude to this case as being esperially obnoxious to this objection, for there have been various others involving small er amounts that have taken up muck valuable limp. The Bill to appropriate money for the political years 1852’3 beintr the special order, was taken up, Mr. Floyd in the chair, and the remainder of the morning session was consumed in perfecting it. SENATE. TUESDAY MORNING. I regret to see in the Senate a degree of supineness and indifference in relation to the great State Road on the pari of many members, that 1 was utterly unpre pared for. I fear that those who have the interests ol that great work most at heart, will have to sacrifice to a considers able extent their opinions ol what is the be>t plan for its government, in order t secure an appropriation to keep it from actually going to rain. 1 think there is one thing pretty certain however ; and that is, that whoever shall be the means of making utterly useless four millions of the people’s money invested in the State Road, by refusing a sum necessary to put it in as good condition as the oth er roads of the State, will have a heavy account to settle with the people w hose interest he hns neglected, The storm would be terrible, if the Senate should re fuse, as there is some danger of its doing, to vote the necessary appropriation. The Senate took up the Bill to give to the people the election of Judges of the ■Superior Court, and <‘ r -- -- Jtog It in some unimportant Jm was passed. jm
