NEW EDITION of LINDLEY'S SCHOOL BOTANY. THIS DAY, Four o'Clock. Our foreign express arrived this morning, with Paris letters and papers of Sunday. On Sunday the press in Paris was chiefly devoted to the publication of the addressee of felicitation pre sented by the various public bodies on Friday at the Tuileries, and with the discussion of the difficulties and objections which were encountered and evaded respecting the attendence of Lord Normanby, with the rest of the diplomatic corps. A prudent silence on the subject of the Montpensier marriage was observed in the address, and the Engiish ambassador accordingly attended. Certainly the representative of England has never, since the presence of the Duke of Wellington in Paris, after the battleof Waterloo, been an object of such universal interest and atten tion as at present. He cannot be induced to attend at an ordinary reception at the Chateau, without a distinct preview( understanding of the very words that shall be spoken in his presence on particular sub jects. Speaking of the ceremony of the Jour de l'An, the Debuts, the organ of M. Guizot, says: We must call the attention of our renders to the address of the nuncio, marked as it is by a noble and frank cordiality, and expressieg faithfully, we are convinced, the real opini rn of all the nations in Europe. The answers cf the king produced an extraordinary impression, particularly that addressed to the worthy president of the Chamber of Peers. May these wishes and these lessons, so appro priate in the mouth of as old and {treat king, be heard by nations and their princes ! ?slay Europe escape, by the conciliation of monarchy and liberty, from the double plague of anarchy and despotism. Franca has given the world cruel examples. The happiness which she enjoys under a liberal monarch, under a prince who juatifies every day, by his profound wisdom, the choice of the nation, will be, we hope, the most effectual of propagandism/. We have never been amongst the number of those who can only be. hold a vain ceremony in these solemn eommuuicatio ,s between the prince and all the bodies of the state; but if we had entertained that opinion, we should not have held it after the speeches of Friday and the king's answer.. On the other hand the Comb/wiener! observes; The publication of the harangues presented to the king on the occasion of the new year by the pope's nuncio, the presidents of the two chambers, was espeeted with some curiosity. It was the first manifestution of official senti ments in the midst of the grave eireumatancse• in which Fennoe is placed. It was known, 1 11 *idea, that the words which the represented , e of the diplofiatie corps can pronounce had been the subjezt of a -.net of negotieuer between the nuncio and Lord Normanby. cording tie established custom, the compliments which bee of the n b u s of the dyematie corps addresses to the oh the 'Jour rte' r.to and - dwiThre oceasii its, ere net the object of any previous communication to tween the various ambassadors. All deliberation on chi, subject would seem to impart so such heron. ins tho cha racter of a collective note, and might give rise to deli cate questions amongst the governments. It is, there fore, usually agreed that the speaker is to take coun-el only from himself, and from his ideas of propriety, and not to share with any one the respon.,ibility of his words. But on this occasion the congratulations addressed to the king by the apostolic nuncio relative to the Duke de Montpensier's marriage, in presence of the representatives of the Britannic Cabinet, who protested against this mar riage, might place Lord Normanby in a difficult situation. It appears, at least, that he thought so, for he demanded and obtained a previous communication of the nuncio's address. It is certain that, in consequ, nee of this kind of negotiation, a phrase of the address relative to the prince's marriage was suppressed; and another was so modified, that it can be inteprcted in all the ways that may be applied to it. Whilst Lord Normanby was thus making, in the name of England, corrections in the diplo matic address, M. Guizot ought in the name of France, were it only by way of cornpensataon, also to have demanded from the nuncio some changes and erasures The French na tion, which has seen with so mournful an indignation the suppression of the Polish nationality, the fall of Cracow, the murders in Gallicia—all that slow agony of a generous people under the blows of oppressive govern menu, will not read without astonishment this phrase ad dressed to the King of the French : " It is with a profound satisfaction that it congratulates you, sire, on the maintenance of the general peace, the admirable result of the wisdom of your majesty and of the other sovereigns and their cabinets. It is the finest title to the gratitude of nations, whose Flory and happiness are promoted by this happy harmony." Co demand at the present moment, for the cabinet, of Europe, the gratitude of their people, to congratulate on their glory and their happiness the oppressed who perish, to boast of the harmony existing in the world, and to say all this in France, whose government, on bad terms with all the cabinets, receives or sends forth protests, and complains of violated treaties and of the contempt of sworn faith, is in sooth to carry irony to excess. The Ministerial journal de sires to consider the nuncio's address as a well-considered manifestation of the whole diplomatic body. In that case, it must be divided into two plats : the silence on the subject of the Duke de Montpensier N marriage is a renewal of the protest of England; whilst the amplitication on the wisdom I of the cabinets, and on the happiness of the nations who owe so much gratitude to their sovereigns, is a reply to the pro ' tests of France against the destruction of Cracow. We have but little to say on the other harangues. Those of the pre sidents of the chambers are distinguished, as usual, by ridiculous bombast, ♦icious style, and incorrection. One would imagine that one was reading some panegyric of the middle ages. It is the same torpid, empty, cold, but sound ing language. Everywhere the remembrance of Cracow is absent; there are only in the king's reply counsels to the European cabinets in favour of liberty—counsels which the destroyers of Poland are scarcely disposed to follow. A reception was announced for Sunday evening, but was postponed on account of the alleged indisposi tion of the Queen. The answer of Prince Metternich to the protestation of M. Guizot was delivered to Count k lahaut, at Vienna, on the 22nd ult., and is, therefore, probably now in the hands of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, since a courier was despatched with it without delay from Vienna. It is stated in the Augsburg Gazelle that much alarm was excited in Constantinople by the announce ment of the confiscation of Cracow. It is asked there, whether, under the same treaty, Bernie or Bulgaria may not be some day seized or annexed to Austria or Russia; nay, whether Constantinople itself may not be absorbed by one or other of its vast neighbours. The price of grain continues steadily to rise in France, the only exception being some of the markets which more immediately supply Paris. The average price per hectolitre of wheat in November was 27f. 79c.; in December it rose to 28f. 42c. The rise in November as compared with October was If. 43c. M. llottinguer, regent of the Bank of France, left Paris on Thursday for London, to contract a loon. It was said that he had purchased twenty millions of francs in silver ingots. P.S.—SUNDAY, JAN. 3.---At Tortenis the funds, which had fallen at the Bourse on Saturday, slightly recovered. The Three per Cents. were done at 80f. 10c., but fell later to 80f. 33c., in consequence of the tone of propagandism, as was said of our article in the Debate. The telegraphic despatch announcing the opening of the Cortes at Madrid on the 31st, which was ex pected on Sunday, had not arrived on account of the state of the weather. MM. Mendizabal and Olozaga had been received with much enthusiasm in the coun try through which they passed, on their route from Bayonne to Madrid. A copy of the Athens paper, L'Eaperance, arrived in Paris on Sunday, which contained a remarkable letter from Munich disclosing a plot to overturn the present constitutional government of Greece. The German Courts, with the tacit acquiescence of the Cabinet of the Tuileries, are charged with this. The heads of the project are stated to be as follow : 1. To give to Greece a constitution similar to that of Bavaria and the other German states. 2. To support this project against all internal re sistance by an army of 8,000 Austrians. 3. In case of any attempt at revolution, to aug ment this force, and impose the expense on the Greek government. The Madrid mails of the 28th ult. were received in Paris on Sunday, but j evere devoid of intelligence of any general interest,. On the 21th the Senate held a preparatory sitting under the presidency of the Duke de Castro Terro,o. The Marquis de Cantpo Sagrado and the Duke d'Abrantes, the two youngest members, acted as secretaries. There were 70 senators present. A despatch of the Minister of Grace and Justice was then read, reproducing the decree of the dissolution of the Congress of Deputies and the convocation of the new legislature for the 23th December. The order of prorogation to the 31st December was also communicated. Twelve senators were chosen by lot to receive their Majesties and Royal Highnesses at the royal sitting. A Council of Ministers was to have been held on the '2Bth, to deliberate on the form of the address to the throne, to keno .... avo ..o as pre.idinit of the Chamber of Deputies. Marquis de Viluma is mentioned as 04 president in the senate. -. A meeting of ono hundred crados deputies was held on the 27th, in the h th e Administration of Mines. The Ministers of nee and of the In terior took ,art in the discussi which were, how ever confined to the nomination of two commissaries for the verification of returns. Among the persons present were MM. Pacheco, Bravo Murillo, Arleta Benavides, Gonzales, Romero, and others. 11.1110, Hee. ?S.—Three per Cents., PltrXiTet, 6,1; Coupons, 10. - 1•-savage , FAL', Her Nlajesty's steamer ltm put in here to-night from Lisbon, on the 27th, Oporto on 29th, ant' We have learnt, g e , addition # ture of Count Bondi!), that m Casal attacked the rebel Braga, when the latter was barely with a small remnant mainder, amounting to some hunai. , taken, p., soners, and immediately slaughtered by order of Casa]. This cold-blooded affair, it was believed, would do as much harm to the Queen's cause as the victory would, of itself, elate the minds of the royalists. The royal family were at Lisbon. Vigo was quiet. The Gla diator was off Oporto. The l'hcrnix steamer had suffered damage in the Gut of Gibraltar by a storm, and the Rattler had been in contact with the Union, of London, off Cape St. Vincent; the latter was bound to Cadiz. Much bad weather had been felt along the coast, in which the Nautilus had been caught, and although out three weeks from Lisbon, could not make Oporto, and was at one time in such a critical position for capsiiing, that two of her lee guns were thrown overboard. GREECE.—We have advice' from Athens to the 20th of Dee. The two Chambers had voted and presented to the king the Aiken in reply to the crown-speech. That of the Senate was voted almost without discussion ; that of the Chamber of Representatives was voted by G 3 against 25. The Chember congratulated itself on the good under standing with the other powers, and on the welfare of the country in general. The King replied as lh.ws to the Chamber of Representatives "It is with satisfaction that I receive the expression of the sentiments of the Chamber of Deputies. Its attachment to my }scan, -nd to our common country, is the more precious to no: as .t is aseemary to crown my efforts towards the ad rimeeciii sad welfare of the nation. CemAdeat in the sealanews by the Obelatear, seed whiels-R app o the examination of the budget and the bills pm pared, I feel certain that the sereion, though a short one, will be rich in happy results." A morning contemporary says that it is understood "the government have determined at once to super sede the miserable Admiralty mail packets employed between Malta and Marseilles, and that the Peninsu lar and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, who have so efficiently performed their contracts in con veying the mails and passengers in the Peninsula and the Mediterranean, and between Southampton and Alexandria, are also to convey the overland mails, via I Marseilles, to and from Malta." If this be so, the go vernment will of course place a steamer at the &e -1 posal of Lieut. Waghorn better suited to the service in which he is now employed than the slow, broken-down vessel with which he has hitherto been obliged to carry on the communication between Alexandria and Trieste. Unless, indeed, the successes he has achieved, notwithstanding the disadvantages with which he has had to contend, are considered to have sufficiently es tablished the superiority of the Trieste route over that yin Marseilles.

This work was originally prvicired, in haste, to meet a regnlation Of the University of bindon, by which it was required of all students, that, two years previously to prucecding to their brst degree, they should be examined, among other subjects, in The characters and differences of the princititl natural classes and orders of plants be longing to the Flora of Europe, in the botanical classilication of De Canduile.'' . .

There is not at the present day a person of any intelligence ignorant of such things, who does not regret that some portion of W youth should not bare been devoted to this kind of inqu iry . The Donetthire gentleman who put himself to considerable trouble and no small ex oar to carry snack of Hornbeam seed from Florence to London, would hare been save" the exertion had he known that the Hornbeam grew in abundance on leis own estate; and it may be early asserted that every one of that celebrated court party which diecovered a prodigy in the beautiful tree in Windsor Park, would have been dad if their carte education had spared them the mortifies. bon of learning from Lord M. that the tree in question was only the Spanish Chestnut. Whatever the future Intention, of a student of botany cosy be It is Indapennable that the dr. t step to be taken should be that of gaining an acquaintance with the common plants of hie own country. lo the absence of that, lie cannot make a single MOW' in advance. He mute tot muter the rudiments of the science, and muter them correctly. This little hook has been prepared forthe porpoise of enabling him to do so. It contains all that it is necessary to know In order to make a hie beginning, and it includesno mote; no that if any one should have the patience to master the whole contents of the volume, he would then be in • position to carry hisinquiries onwards with rase. lint it Is not really ossuary to become acquainted with all the plants here mentioned. The reason why en many Ponies are introduced, which are of mall Importance, in to enable the teacher to obtain at least some part of them to illustrate his teaching. Local circumstances, and *specially our uncertain Kelowna, will always render it difficult to procure every thing here inentioned; but no conceivable tircunistano • can, in this country, offer impediments to the examination of a large put. In selecting the sults with which the etudect is to be made acquainted, thou hive been gener.dly chosen which are within any maw. reach; and to render the acquisition of them more fogy, the vulgar names are added. A very small um of money will enable every schoolmaster to cultivate the whole in a packs, where they May be constantly at hand. In framing the technical characters of genera and spedes, all the more minute distinctions, the detection of which requires the aid of a microioope, have been intentionally disregarded; and attention Ismore r•ails - called to throe which are obvious enough to be observed by one having a packet len.. ? rh of the European natural orders I regard en the pen will be apparent, from the prominence given here to certain orders beyond others. The teacher is not, however, rum- mended altogether to omit thou which are stated to be comparatively unimportant. The shed course will be to make the students Ibuotighly unpainted, in the Snit instance, with the natural orders which are marked from I. to LXXIII., and then to explain more briefly the differences of those to which no numbers are prefixed. Is ecoclusion, the teacher is particularly recommended to take are slat in addition to a mall penknife, each student is provided with • Wk. lens of about a hulf-Inch foto., and a few quires of paper ; the former Wooed him in examining, and the latter in drying, the hash specimen of plants daily brought before him. There is no method so certain an the latter, to accustom young persons to esti mate correctly the difference's between one plant and another ; and. It is presumed, no one will think of teaching Botany, without an ample 'supply of fresh epreimena, which he may distribute among his 431”, for the purpose of being examined and studi-d at !chore. Indeed, it in orlon to stole botany, unless thin provision is mule to the acquisition of theme habit. of obeerration which render natural hidoes no peculiarly useful as a branch of mental training. When etudennt to not enjoy the advantages of n competent bother, their best plan will he to put this book into the hands of an Intelligent gardener, and to listlithe him to furnish them weekly with the plants that are named in it. .1t home they can compare the definitions which then may find with the plants themselves, and this Mod of practice is, of ail others, the mod certain to lead to Mem *Wats results. None of the woodcuts employed in the first edition bare been intredaerd on thin ocandon.

The amount of the loan operation concerted be tween the Banks of England and France, is understood to be in the whole for eighty millions of francs, or about 3,200,0001., as stated in the Daily Sew this morn ing. The amount in the Times is, that "800,0001., (40,000,000 francs)" is to be advanced for three months, In this reduction of French into English values, there is a clear error, either in one set of figures or the other. The equivalent of 40 millions of francs in sterling would be in round numbers 1,600,1:001.; and the equivalent of 800,0001. sterling would, on the other band, be 20 millions of francs only. Supposing the first operation to be for 40 millions of francs, we have one-half of the whole loan put into movement at once. But we arc inclined to think the operation is to commence, in the first instance, with the lesser sum, which would represent one-fourth of the whole loan, in order cautiously to test how the money and bill market, on both sides of the channel, may be effected by the operation, and to avoid any un necessary disturbance of, or interference with, the course of values and financial transactions for mei, cantile account. The discrepancy between the statements of the two morning papers referred to, is probably more ap parent than real, for the Times may be, indeed evidently is, treating of the first portion, or instalment, of the loan to be dealt with, the remainder of the loan, to the amount given in the Daily News, to be called for, or drawn agai nst, as wanted by a series of periodical operations at convenient seasons. It will be found that such well tho mode of action on the former occasion of the advances made by the Bank of France to the Bank of England. The full amount of the loan agreed for was not drawn against at once by the latter through its agents, but at successive intervals, as resources were wanted, and as money markets here, at Paris, and in other countries, were in a favourable position for operating upon. The coniparatively small sum of 20 millions of francs (800,0001.), supposing that were the entire sum to pus, could scarcely be of essential service in covering the present ex posed state of the exchequer of the Paris Bank, with, accord ing to the last accounts, no more than 65 millions of francs of specie in hand, instead of the 150 to 200 millions usually held, and a drain still in progress besides. The factor so small a balance of coin and bullimi as sixty-flu miOlions is of itself a provocation to a further drain, from the want of eon fi dence,or unasi nese, which it is calculated to excite in the public mind. The bank cannot, moreover, restrict its discounts to any material extent withont inflicting great damage upon the commercial and trading interests of Paris, and even of France, if not absolutely creating a panic, which at the outset would result iu throwing back all its outstanding note circulation upon it, and so carry ing off all its remaining stock of silver and gold. A restriction of discounts would moreover end in disabling • large portion of its small customers (the petit commerce) from meeting their engagements, and thus a masa of discounted bill values would be returned dis honoured into its bill-box. For, unlike the Bank here, which deals with commercial paper of large calibre only, the Bank of France admits paper, we believe (writing froin me mory) as low in amount as 200 fr. (80 to discount, which is aeounted to be a vast secommodieion to the retail trade of Paris. There would seem, therefore, to be no reason for doubting that the loan, in its totality, is for the larger amount of 80 millions of franca, so as to place the Bank in a position to face all the inconveniences, if net perils, of its present position, without deranging the usual course of its Matinee* ' and thus reassuring that public confidence which its weakness may hese somewhat impaired. Half-past Two.—The funds were heavy this morning, and so continue. Consols opened at 931 to I, but subsequently turaed sellers at 1.

The very high prices of Yara naturally brought forward large supplies, and sales became very difficult at anything like the rates asked : a forced sale also of a large parcel at very low rates, entirely stopped all possibility of effecting sales except at a ruinous sacrifice, and the markt than recovered but very slightly since then.— Cigars : The imports have been large, and prices given way considerably for all sorts. Ma nilla Cheroots are also at a price very much under our quo tations at this date la..t year.—Columbian : The importshave again been very small, and the stock has considerable de creased during the year; and prices ranged very Ligh till the last two months, when s-rong symptoms of weakness were apparent, as our present consumption being only one third of its fanner amount, a renewal of the imports to any thing like the formerextent would swamp the market, unless, by a return to old prices, a return can be made to the old demard. About 900 bales just arrived, not included in the stocks.—Brasil has been the most unfortunate in its results to the importers of all the Cigar Tobaccos, so we predicted it would be when we saw the quality and heard the coat; and, unfortunately, the bad effects are not at an end, as the consumption is much reduced from the wretched qualityofmost of this 3 care imports.
