We clip the fpllowing complimentary^ rfoflce cf the How. 1II:N'HY SECREST, the talented and energet ic senator from Putnam, from an editorial corrcsdondonce of the Bloomington reporferf

A Lobby member of tho^enaie who feels interest enough in Its debates to watch the progress of an important measure, will not fail to notice a plain middle aged gentleman on the western side of the linll. He docs not address the Senate often, then uot at great length. And yetj'vhen he docs speak, lie sheds a flood of light upon the subjcct. That man has one of-the clenrest heads in Indiana.— A ml when wo mention his name, Henry Secrest, our citizens who have listened to his able arguments at the Bar, will endorse our eiscrtion. He is a modest, unassuming gentleman, apparently aged about forty.five, very plainly clad, of medium stature. In his instance, the old adsge "judge not from appearance,'1 is fully illustrated. He is among the loett men in the Senate whom a stranger would select as a great man, simply because of his strange modesty. But if we had an intricate qhestion of law or State policy, requiring accurate discernment and nice discrimination, he would be the first to whom we would apply. When he closes a debate in the Senate we consider the question at issue settled, if we entertain doubts upon any question, we regard it a safe rule to vote with hirn blindly. Tiits is not adulation it is ti jinall tribute to iuode«t worth.

?«r

Mr. Secrest is a native of Kentucky, and has for many years practised law in the White river oountry, hotly contesting every inch of ground in his rise in his profession with the ablest lawyers in Indiana. His modesty alone keeps him ouuof Congress, in his own Congressional District he is universally popular. In our opinion the road to Congress is open to him. Yet he manifests no inclination to travel upon it. If wemistake not .be accepted the present seat in the Senate with great reluctance. It is unnecessary t| remind our readers that he is a Democrat of unyielding integrity who would scorn to purchase any' office atthe sacrifice of any moral or political principle. In the distribution of favofs at the coftimg Democratic convention, we bespeak for him the remembrance of our people.

Pile is an honor and an Ornament to oar party, and if all offices within our gift were filled With such men, we would have greater moral strength.

JOhio democracy knows «s well as you or I, Mr. hdttor, that Ohio banks furnish a circulation for Indiana, which is a very convenient outlet for their paper, and any one o*n imagine how very disinter eeted their advice would be under such circttmstancea, and how keenly-aitve they would be to the pen dtng danger to their cherished priaciple*. if a meas ure should be adopted that would drive that circulation heme.-^Lf^"* Jttdge Qoalim to ike Express./"

If the writer of tho above article brieves all thai it would imply he is ignorant ot Ohio democracy, and if he does not he is,unfair. The great majority of det«»ocra»s in Ohio are opposed to all spectes of backing, and would gfadlly pot an end to the banks in their own State. It is well known that a detnocratio comnuUee wade a report to tbe?hio Convtiteciofia^ Conreotion p«J»hi«og all banks of circulation wfthinrtie State. We should illce to know what ekpritkei pri*c*plcs would hem dan ger^^ao tha Judge irtt us!

^,^ ,AKRIVAL OF THE EUROPE Highly important/ram France:—Paris in,a stale of Scigc!—French Assembly DissolvedI

NEW YORK, Dec. 20, 8 p.

The steamer Europa, from Liverpool, arrived at Halifax, this morning having experienced a constant succession of heavy gales. She left Liv erpool on 6th* i-

One man was lost^yerbpan^ during the passage. *4 AwrodKmNG NEWS PBOM FRANCE.—Matters in Paris have reached the crisis long anticipated. On th& 1st instant the President seized the rerns of government, dissolved the Assembly, declared Paris in a elate oi seige, arrested the leading opponents, and appealed to the people t# ...

The preparation, were effected with consumate skill and secresy. ^Everything was consumated before the Axaembly had the least idea of the Presi dent's intentions. An entirely new ministty had been formed at daylight. On Tuesday morning the President's proclamation was found posted throughout the city, in which he ordered the dispersion of the Assembly and the restoration of universal suffrage also proposing a new system of government-the instant election by the people and army, of a President, to hold oflice ten yotirs supported by a council of State, and by two bouses of a Legislature. Pending the elections executive power remains in the hands of the President. The president promises to bow to the people, a.id says he was forccdjnto the present attitude. it is certain that Thiers, Changarnier, and others of the opponents had decided to demand the arrest and impeachment of the President on the 2d inst., and were in the act of moving in the matter, when they and their principal "friends were arrested and conveyed to Vincennes.

Wherever members of the Assembly have attempted to meet, officially, they have been ordered to disperse, and were arrested if they refused. Two hundred members have been arrested. Many were subsequently released but the leaders of the opposition were in prison^.

Three hundred members of the Assembly are said to have given their adhesion to the President, and telegraphic despatches from the department says that *the President's demonstrations had been hailed most enihushitically. Subsequently these reports wore contradicted.

Several barricades were erected in different quarters of Paris, but wire speedily broken by" the troops. At one of these two members of the Assembly occupied prominent places and were kiRed in donflct on Tuesday. |M .f|A section of t^e Assembly "that continued to meet decided upon the deposition of the President •nd his impeachment for high treason. The meeting was dispersed by the troops and the decree ridiculed on all hands. Troops were placed in the houses of ex-officers of the Assembly, who were exempted from arrest, among others, M. Dupin.— Fall rigor martial law prevailed agsinit perrons concerned in barricading, and large numbers jfftre shot.

Up to Thursday night the success of the President seemed oertain. London advioas of Friday do not materially vary the prospect, hot new elements ar* constantly arrising.

It is pretty evident, from present indications, that the assessment law of last year will be continued in force, so far as regards the assessment for the year 1352, with this modification, perhaps, that tho lien for taxes will attach on the first day of January, instead of the first of March, as the present law provides.:Vk' .V 1

Uow far the Legislature will progress in the work of revising the body of our laws, daring the present session, is quite uncertain and whether they will authorize the committee on revision to continue in session after the adjournment'of the Legislature, is as yet uncertain^ \The great exciting topic of the day is the expected visit of Louis Kossuth^, Last night, a large and enthusiastic Kossuth Meeting was held at the State House, at which the Governor presided, assisted by the Lieut. Governor and Speaker of the House. Addresses were made by Gov Wright, Hon. John Pettit, John S. Reid4 Dr. Davis, Wm. J. Brown, J. Ly ale King and Capt. Gibson. The great speech of the evening was that of Mr. Pettit. He treated the subject in its legal aspects, and displayed in the course of his remarks a soundness of judgment and thoroughness of research in every way creditable to him as a lawyer and statesman. He, in substance maintained the propositions that, our obligations as a neutral nation require us not to interfere in the internal affairs of another nation that all such interference by any government was a violation of the law of nations, and that the government offering such interference rendered itself liable to be punished and even cut off as a malifactor, in the same manner that a citizen forfeits his civil rights by disobedience of the laws under which be lives that the interference of Russia in the internal contests of Austria and Hungary was an infraction of the law of nationa and that although other nations had not interposed to inflict such punishment, shonld the offence be repeated. He took the ground that it was the solemn duty of every nation to see that the laws of natjons are preserved in their integrity and that the dootrine ol neutrality, as advocated by Washington, could not exempt the American people from this obligation. He maintained that we had a perfect right to express, as a nation, our abhorrence for the unwarrantable interference of Russia but acknowledged that such an expression might possibly have the effect to involve us in hostilities. If hostilities should ensue in consequence of the discharge of this sacred duty, we ought not to shrink from such un encounter. Whether it was our duty to take the steps nvolving such momentous consequenses. he would not note pretend to deoide but, that such a course was justifiable, he could not doubt.

The speech of Mr. Pettit was received with £reat applause. Resolutions were. passed inviting Cossuth to visit Indianapolis at his earliest convenience and a committee of fifty persons was appointed to wait on him at Cincinnati and escort him to Indiana.

But little btlsiniss will beUone uniTllhe tiolicfay are over. The House has resolved to adjourn from Wednesday to Monday next.

fact, hedaatas all bad reports ami says the cioorf try is quiet. Where the truth rests amid these ebu tradictions we cannot pretend to say.

It appears that the notorious James Watson Webb, editor of the Courier and Enquirer, had the impudence not only to attend the dinner given by the members of the Press, in New York, to Kos suth, but to attempt to address the assembled com pany The presence of Haynau himself could not have been more offensive to the respectable gentle men assembled on the occasion than that of Webb. It is some satisfaction, however to know that when the villifrer of Kossuth and the apologist oT Austria attempted to address the assemblage, was promptly hissed down. He no doubt telt very much as Haynau did when he was receiving a. thrashing from the London brewers.

MADA«K KOSSCTH.—-The New York Herald says that Madame Kossuth is more like Magyar than her distinguished husband. She is rather smaller is, in proportion, but of stronger frame, tra to be about the same age. She is a with good complexion, and fine, dark, lustrous eyes. Good sense is the prevailing idea snggested by hes oountenanae. Modesty and quietness are also there. She is plain and unosten tatious in her dress.
