Lessapie has re'urned to France, having failed in coaxing the Romans into submission, and orders have been sent to Gen Oudinot to capture the Holy Citv, let the consequences bo whit they may. The Romans are de termined to resist the thr'-.itenpd attack to death. They have mghc y. ihousand men in the field, and the Roman leaders declare that ihey will blow up Si. Peiers and all the church edifices, if they should not be able 10 keep the French out. Ti.e Plenipotentiaries of Prussia, Han over and Sdxony, have promulgated a new constitution for Germany, in which the principle of universal suffrage is ingrafted. In ihe present, as in former attempts inform a Union of the German Staies, the K ng of Prussia is made the prominent head. Austria has open excluded from the proposed arrange ment, but all the other States are iovi ted to enter into the arrangement. It is considered donbtful whether this plan will succeed. The Pari journals furnish intelligence from Rome to the second instant. Hos til:ties had not yet commenced. Gen. Oudinot hid demanded an armistice. The Pope still persists in demanding an unqualified renewal of his power as temporal Ruler, and the Triumvirate, backed by ihe people, declare that th'.y wji never accede to the demand of the Pope. Mr.zzenis deterrnina ton is to accomplish the thorough destruction of the. Pope's temporal power- He sas, 'we shall show figtit to the last against all projects of restoration."

NEW-ORLEANS, June 20. The Crevasse will be closed this eve ning or to-morrow. The water in the city is rapidly receding, while the river is rising. Capt. Bradlev, of the schr. Friend ship, tried for the murder of Fanny Dar.ey, has been found guilty, without being subject to capital punishment, and has been recommended to mercy. The Texan Rangers have been or ganized, and will undertake, the protec tion of the country from the incursions of the savages, throughout the territory from Corpus Chns'i, in the v cimty of the Neuces, and to the banks ol the Rio Grande. NEW ORLEANS, June 22. Accounts have been received that the Texas expedition from Ell Passo del Norte, comprising six companies of the 3d inlantry, under command of Major Van Horn, left San Antonio on the first instant. The Indians were still committing deprejati .ns on the Texas Frontier, causing great alarm, and great corn plaints were made for 'he wunt ol Uni ted States troops to express the sava ge. Without having any positive infor mation, we suppose that the forces un der Major Van Horn, were deiailed lor the protection of the inhabitants from the depredation of the Indians; and in connection with the Texan t-angers, a bove mentioned, there cm be little doubt that these ravages will soon ae prevenied fiom committing iuriher out rages, or receive speedy and memed punishment for their reckless cruelty. J The Cholera is said to bb making terrible havoc among the inhabitants of the interior towns of Mexico. Report says that five hundred Ameri cans in all, on their way to California, have been killed by the Indians in Mexico. General Cass. The Nashville Ban ner assures its readers, upon the most "unquestionable authoriUty," that Gen eral Cass will resign his seat in the Sen ate, rather than obey the instructions imposed upon hioi by the Legisla ure of Michigan. These instructions were tn favor of the Wilmoi Proviso, tne abo lition ol slavery in the District of Co lumbia, and other ab.lition measures of a similar character. Clocer for Horses It is a common remark, that ciovt-r hay, il fed to horses any length of lime occasions a cough, ard grea'r "?ar"oteI if it does not occasion the heaves. There are two remedies for this. One is to deposit the hay in a Danger instead of. a rack. The leaves of ciover cured after the old fas noil are 8.i dry and rnspv, and then crumble and pu.venz as they are drawn from the rack, occasioning dust, which being inhaled, irritates the lungs, and hence coughs, &c. In taking up tne hay fr.m the manger, no dust is crea ted. Another and betier remed, is, to cure the. clover in the right manner. iy curing it in ihe cork instead ol spreading and turning again and again. its leaves become wiped, instead of b. - coming crispy, and d not cru.i.ble. 1 bus not only is immense labor in cu ring saved, but no inconsiderable loss in ciumbling ol ihe leaves, to sav no thing of the pernicious effect spoken of.

In New- York several buildings have beer, con siructed of : iron, and as far as can be judce I, they are considered in all res pects superior to those of the ordinary material. The advantages of iron are thus summed up: The first and most prominent is the great cheapness of the iron tenement. In addition to thi? iron houaes can be taken down, moved, and put up again in a new place, with comparatively little cost; and when the fashion ol their architecture has grown out of date, or the lancy of the owner has changed, he I can have them re-cast. Iron houses : are in no danger of lightning, for the metal gradually attracts the eleetricitv and conducts it safely to the ground, thus preyentirtg an explosion. Iron is susceptible f being made into lighter forms than stone brick or wood; hence ihe saving nf the grhood occupied by the wilb is vrr great. Iron makes a drier house than other material. Iron is fire-proof. In short the arguments in favor of iron houes appear io preponderate ovor those m favor of tenements of brick or stone, and will, very soon lead to the introiluctjiiQ of dwellings, and siores constructed of this meial.
