PARIS, THURSDAY EVENTING. Some fearful rumours were current yesterday even ing in the capital as to this day. It was said that 5u,000 operatives, unarmed, were to meet in the Champ de Mars, to go to the National Assembly, to de mand assistance for Poland and Italy. It was also said that if M. Led:u Rollin had been excluded from the ex ecutive government, the Sec, ions of Paris would imme diately have taken up arms, and had determined that last night should have witnessed some terrible scenes of carnage amongst his opponents. The Meager says : The public buildings which have teen hitherto lent to the different ctute tur their meetings are m. longer to be so ;vied, and that they must, in future, hire places of meeting, if they think fit to continue them. This may probably hare the effect of lessening their number. Preparations are now in active progress for the fete of Sunday, the 14th. National guards from most of the neighbouring towns are coming to Paris for the occasion. The chain bridge in front of the Inva lides is to be closed, lest it should not prove strong enough to bear the weight of the large number of persons that would probably crowd upon it. Au order has been received at Besancon to put that place on a war footing. They have begun to place cannon on the redoubts and forts. The commission named by the Minister of Justice for the re-organization of the judicial system has de cided on the establishment of a bureau for the poor, composed of an advocate, an area, (attorney), and other officers, whose duty it shall be to furnish legal ad vice and assistance to these who cannot afford to pay for them. The' Club des Femmes" will publicly inaugurate its opening on Monday. The questions which are on the" order of the day" are such as to excite curiosity. They embrace all which can contribute to the eman cipation, the education, and the happiness of women. At the moment that the government are occupying themselves with the law of divorce, it will bo some what interesting to learn the opinion on this subject of a party so much interested in it. The army of the Alps is to be increased by a fourth division of infantry, of three brigades, coming from Algiers. It will then consist of 38,000 men. The nu m')ers of the commission of government will quit the several ministries to-day. MM. Lamartine, Arago, and Ledru-Rollin will occupy the Elysee Bourbon, where the sittings of the commission will be held. MM. Gander Pagis and Marie will occupy apart ments in the Luxembourg. It was confidently reported in the Chamber, at 5 o'clock, that M. Ledru Rollin had sent in his resigna tion as a member of the Executive Commission. The government have received information that a number of the clabists from Marseilles are en rcute for Paris. la" Mar 11.—New Loan, —; Three par Cents., 49 ; Do. la" Per C 41 ". 6 , in; Fourand.liall, 63 ; Yours, —: Belgian 1910, 1842 686. 13n.

The Executive Commission has appointed the Ministry u follows : Bastide &cart I)uclero Finance. Admiral easy Trelat Carnet Charms War. Bethmont Cremieux Flacon Carteret Leon Renaud NATIONAL ASSEMBLY.—THURSDAT. The desire to learn the composition of the new ministry to be appointed by the Executive Commis sion, as well as the report which was circulated, that forty or fifty thousand operatives were to come to-day to the Chamber, to make a demonstration iu favour of Poland, attracted an unusual number of curious persons to the galleries and the en virons of the palace. The moment the ses sion opened, however, these apprehensions were allayed, as it became known that no other in tention was entertained than that of presenting a petition from the Polish emigrants on the subject in the usual forms. The extraordinary guards which had been celled out, were accordingly marched back i to their quarters. As to the composition of the now ministry, nothing transpired beyond vague reports. The government commission had held a council this morning at the Hotel of the Ministry of Marine. It was said, by persons reputed to be well informed, that a cabinet would be formed as follows : Bastide Itecurt lnterior. Duclerc Admiral Cazy Marine. Trelat Carnot Public Instruction. Cavaignac Bethmont Worship. Cremicux Flacon J. Farm Under-Secretary for Foreign Affair& The chamber eat at half past 12. After the read ing of the proeis rerbal, a member complained that the proposition of M. Barbs, which demanded that the functions of the executive commission should be limited to two months, had not been put to the vote. On an observation made by the President, the member left the tribune. DAVID (d'Angere), the celebrated sculptor, next seined the tribune, to demand that a rnedsl should be struck in honor of each of the members of the late provisional govern ment. This motion, received with mermen of dissent, was not u eonded. Another proposition, more important, was made by M. Brunet, who r.quired the creation of commissions, who should discuss the great questions which have re ference to the republican organisation of France, in substitution of the bureaux, which were too numerous, producing only embarrassing discussion and no results. On the observation of M. Tiring, late minister wider Louis Philippe, and one of the residents of the present council of state, this proposition was submitted to a com mission charged to prepare rules for the Chamber. A discussion, the most confused, and with no result, then took plies as to the composition of • committee of labour, and a committee on the French constitution. Some deputies required that the nomination of this latter should be preceded by a general and public discussion. M. BccART required that the consideration of this should be deputed only to men who had particularly occupied themselves with questions of constitutional low, if this re- sult were desirable to attain, it could net be done by refer ring the matter to one or two bureaus, in which by ohanoe might be found some men qualified ; it would be better,thea, ' to name Os committee on the constitution choosing from all parties. At this moment the confusion became extreme. M. Ot.mna required that, first of all. they should devote themselves to coosider the situation of the operatives. M. OSCAR LAFAYETTE insisted that the proposition of M. Benart should be taken into consideration. M. AUGUSTE PORTALLS demanded priority for the com. mission of finances. The PassiUlNT appeared embarrassed, but at lest decided to put to the vote the proposition of Id. Banat. It was rejected. At the moment when the President was about to put to the vote two other propositions, the noise became so over powering, that several members demanded that. before every other question, the chamber should occupy itself with laying down some rules for the orderly conduct of the assembly itself, of which the necessity became every moment wets apparent. The PILFAIDENT announced that the committee wee 0C- copied with this, and would probably report in the course of that sitting. At half-part two the representatives retbcd to their bureaux. The sitting wee resumed at a quarter-part three, end was occuppied in discussing matters connected with the fete of the 14th inst. ITALY. The Austrian Lloyd"s7;;;;Ite, of the 3rd of May, Says : - The Emperor has determined to blockade Venice, and en Austrian squadron has been ordered on this service. The Venice Gazette of May 3, Bays: The Provisional Government of the Venetian republic has decreed that :—l. The committee of defence is replaced by a committee of war, composed of a president and four assesso-e. 2. General Arinandi is appointed president, and Colonels G. Milani, G. B. Civedolis, Aluoro Fredigo, and Golvemo Fontana, are appointed assessors. 3. The pre sident shall fulfil the functions of Minister of War. Very important news has reached us from Berne, of the date of the Bth May. On that day M. Ochsenbein had resigned the presi dency of the directory of the diet and his other offices. This resolution was adopted by hint in con sequence of the question of the intervention of Switzerland in the affairs of Italy, which he opposed. On the 9th it was to be decided if his resignation should be accepted; if it were, it would settle the question of intervention in the affirmative. CHARTIST ASSEMBLY.—At the sitting of yesterday it was resolved that the memorial to the Queen should be present, d by a deputation to her Mejesty, personally, if poen late, and the bunt:less committee was requested to write to the Lord Chamberlain to know when the deputation could be received. The proposition for one great open air demon stration in the metropolis on an early day, to adopt the above memorial, was agreed to, invitation' to attend the same to be forwarded to Mr. F. o . (..'onner. Mr. Wakley, Mr. G. Thomp son, Mr. W. J. Fox, and Mr. S. Crawford. The following re solution relative to the repeal of the legislative union was also put and agreed to :—"That the assembly declare its delibe rate conviction that the so-called union between Great Britain and Ireland was unjust in principle, inasmuch as it abrogated the right of self-government, and had multiplied English taxation and Irish grievance!' ; they desire that the commis si inert sent to the country by the executive should he re• quested to advocate the repeal of the union, and on all occa sions to fraternise with Irishmen," Ploinnone DOCK has lately been the scene of much excitement, owing to the formation of a " joint-stock trading company" by some of the principal workmen engaged in the dockyard, for the avowed purpose of depriving the trades men of the town of the profits obtained on the sale of their goods, which the workmen of the yard have taken Nome pains to show were of inferior quality and very high price. A correspondent or the Pembrokeshire herald state* that there is every probability of the subject being at once brought ill fore the Admiralty, with a view to ascertain how far the men in the employ of the government are justified in the co urse they have pursued. INaCEST6.— ACCIDENTAL DEATTI FROM FIRE /taws —Before Mr. T. Wakley, at the University College Hospital, on the body of Priscilla Fitzgerald, aged 46.—Mr. James Wiskin deposed that, u a county magistrate, he took the deceased's deposition, on the 2nd of May laat, in that hospital. The deceased expressed a conviction that she should die, and was quite coAected. She deposed that she was in the service of Mr. Montague Leveson, 18, Queen square. Between seven and eight o'clock, on the morning ot tho 20th ult., she was passing through the counting house and saw her master's son, Montague, and at the moment heard the snap of a pistol, and immediately she fell. She remembered nothing until after her arrival at that hospital. She said her master's sin was always kind to her, and she was sure he did not intend to hurt her, and that it was the effect of an accident. The witness put in the deposition, and declared that he took it as the deceased's dying declara tion —Mr. J. B. C. Leveson said he occupied the room where deceased was shot, as an office, and his brother (the accused) slept there. Ile had left the pistol loaded in the drawer of his office table, about three weeks before, end was not aware that his brother knew it was there, or that it was loadecocked,d. His brother told him that, finding the pistol was half he was abourto put the hammer down when it went off. Witness accompanied his brother to see deceased in the hospital, and on her observing him 'ebbing, she ex claimed, " Do not grieve about it, Montague; you could not help it; it was God's will. You did not mean to do it."— The Coroner having ad d r essed the jury, they immediately returned a verdict of " Accidental Death," but ultimately appended the following:—" The jury in returning this ver dict, wish to ex press their opinion of the impropriety of puma leaving *mutes in insecure ritaitioas." 0, the ehotrottak tame laminated -western {porch.. of steam. a the bill, nod. celled ',Kaolin nernience 'would earns to the pony 'fore allowed to tots. line of stem-pockets tetwees a the bill hod hot closed whoa Yeovil, &e.—The the `South-Western Cow%peep rod to he pi °veil, the clauses were rutted to report the bill to the Ir. litereweiher appeared for the to authorise the eonetruetket of Imo, and Smtburgh ; Mr. n" nn behalf of the Laneeater eed CAW of the promotes* fad sot AND OsTOAD ItnI4TION.

BIRMINGHAM, May 11.-At this day's market there was a limited supply of Wheat, for which buyers were offering Is. to 24. per qr. less ; but, as sellers would not generally give way, little changed hands. Barley again Is. per qr. dearer. Beans realised quite as much money. Peas inquired for. Oats 6d. to Is. per qr. dearer. During the present week the weather has continued as fine as possible, and little Wheat has been sold, and not much offered prices are nominally Is. to 2s. per qr lower. The heat is considered too great for spring Corn. Both Barley and Oita have realised a further improvement, some heavy grinding Barley having sold as high as 325. per 3921b5. ; and a few fine Oats, at 23.1. per 31211 w., at Birmingham, being a rise on both from the lowest point of from 3s. per qr.

Barley, 1,766 Oats, and only 12.3 Wheat. with 614 sacks and 100 bele. Flour, being a very moderate supply coastwise from Ireland, with only a short supply of farmers' Wheat, our market would feel the effect if there was any briskness in trade. But the sale of Flour has been very difficult through out this month ; English, seconds, 33s to 368. per sack, and 245. to 27e. per barrel. Wheat, 44.. to 585., being Is. per qr. decline, and a very dull sale for foreign, at late p rices.

Fine samples of potato, weighing front 421 be. to 4411,5. per bushel, 275. 64. per qr. ; sweet feed, 22a. to 245, Little doing in Tares, Rye, and small Seeds. Svocavon-08-Trze, May 10.-The weather continues remarkably fine, which has materially changed the aspect of the country, and depressed the value of Wheat generally. At our market this morning we had a fair show of Wheat from the farmers, and, having a good attendance of buyers, the whole was cleared off early, at the full rates of this day week. In south country and free foreign there is no change; holders are not pressing sales. Oats were a slow sale, and last week's prices could hardly be obtained. Beans in fair demand, but without change in value. Flour is a dull sale, and some marks Is. per sack lower.

Barley and Oats maintain a slight advance in price. Beans sell better, and Peas are scarce. The sup ply at market was abort.

Entneurion, May 10.-We had only a moderate supply of Wheat from the farmers at this morning's market ; how ever, the sale was dull, and, to effect a clearance, a decline of Is, per iv% had to be submitted to. Foreign Wheat was also in limited demand, at a similar reduction. Barley in quired for, and fully as dear. In some instances choice sam ples of Oats were 6d. to Is. per qr. higher, and last week's prices were fully supported for other descriptions. Beans Beane, and la. dearer.

GLASGOW,May 10. -There was a fair attendance of buyers at our market to-doy, and a moderate amount of business transacted in all articles, excepting Wheat and Flour, which met little demand, though offered at a reduction of 6d. per boll, 6d. per barrel, and Is. per sack, respectively. Barley scarce, and 6d. per boll dearer. There was a good inquiry for Oats, but holders generally demanded 3d. to 6d. per boll advance, which checked sales. Beans and NBA continue in good request, and are the turn higher. Oatmeal and other articles firm. at previous rates. The weather has continued fine during the past week, which has caused the trade to be languid. Wheat and Flour have been sold on rather easier terms, but full prices procured for other articles.

CATTLE, Sec.—SMITHFIELD, Deo o'Cleek.—The number of Beasts fresh up to this day's market is by no means large, the supply consisting chiefly of those left over front Monday, with about 150 from Holland, and 112 Mitch Cows. The trade is very bad ; there are remarkably few buyers, in consequence of the very depressed state of the dead markets. Our top quota tions are extreme prices. The supply of Sheep and Lambe is not so large as on Friday last; it is, however, qui'e adequate to the demand. The farmer meet with a very dull sale, and Monday's prices are barely supported. There is rather a brisk trade for the latter, but at very little more money. From Holland there are nearly 600 Sheep and 150 Calves. Although the supply of Calves is large, choice de scriptions are not very plentiful, and still make vs. per &lbs. ; second-rate are lower.

A fair clearance made of both Beasts and Sheep. STAMFORD MAT FAIR.—The supply of Beasts and Sheep was somewhat lsiger than is tonal at this fair, which occurs shortly after the new spring stock fair. Business was heavy, and scarcely anything changed hands except at a reduction from former prices. A large quantity of Sheep, brought to St ,mford from Boston Fair, were driven away unsold; and it has rarely been known that both Sheep and Beasts have lain in the streets until so late an hour in the afternoon. EDINBURGH, May 10.—The suppof Sheep this morning was much larger than last week. Sal es ruled very dull, and prices down fully 3s. a-head, and even at that reduction a great many remained unsold.

COMMERCIAL tr MARKETS. MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE. Two o' Clock. —The reaction in the funds, which commenced yesterday, has continued this morning, and we have Consols, which opened at 84 to down to 83; to I for money, and 631 to t, for time. We have, therefore, since yesterday morn ing a fall of one per cent., which, considering that in reality there is no change in political affairs that should affect particularly the value of public securities either one way or the other, seems almost unaccountable. An opinion prevails in some quarters that the reaction is the natural result of Consols having been oreviotuily "socketed" too strongly by parties and capitalists interested in stimulating higher prices and a msrket to sell upon, and that, as usaal in such oases, the policy having been strained too far, the specula tion has broken down, and prices are run ning into the opposite extreme.

The Leipsic Spring Fair, according to accounts in the Hamburg papers, had opened under the most unpromising appearanees. Scarcely any foreign buyers bad arrived, nor, indeed, were many expected. At Bueharest the merchants are said to have bound themselves under a heavy pecuniary penalty not to attend the far or lriy German manufactures. Accord ingly none had presented themselves at Leipzie. Should this great fair be thus deserted, as stated and feared, the result may be most lamentable for the manufacturers, who had looked forward to it as their chief hope, and more so for the operatives, who may be thrown out •f work by th.lusimids, from the impossibility of the masters keeping es their works when no longer able to find a vent for their goods. In Bavaria, as elsewhere, loans are the order of the day, and ono had just been authorized by the legisla tion. 11116L1811 FUNDS. Bank Stork, 133 2 3per Ct. Collator A.L. VII 3 per CL Rel.

On the motion of Lord Baatimonr, the select committee on this bill was appointed. MAIL CONTRACTS. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH complained of the short notice which had been issued with respect to the renewal of the contract for tarrying the mails to Egypt and Alex andria. It was a most profitable contract, and he wished to ask the noble marquis at the Head of the Post-office, who had concurred in the suggestion of the committee on this subject last year, whether he had made any inquiry as to the profit ealised by the company in carrying the snails in question ? The Marquis of CLANRICARDE raid the contract did not belong to the Post-office. He thought the notice was not sufficient; but if the contract was net satisfactory, the government WWI not bound to accept it. He c ,uld assure tile noble earl that the inquiry to which he alluded had not been lost sight of. THE BROAD AND NARROW GAUGES. Lord REDESDALE said their lordship, would recollect •resolution which he moved last session on the subject o the broad and narrow gauges between Birmingham and L on don, that the railway commissioners should be directed to inquire into the lines between Birmingham and London and report an to the best manner in which the public interests could be consulted. Eleven months had passed since that period, and although he knew there had been difficulties in the way, still it was important to know when the report would be presented. Earl GRANVILLE made • few observations in reply, which were quite inaudible. DISCRIMINATING DUTIES (INDIA). The Earl of ELLEN BOROUGH moved for certain papers connected with trade in India and the abolition of discriminating duties. He was afraid the effect of that mea sure would be to diminish the revenue and not increase trade. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE had no objection to the production of the papers. DEFALCATIONS IN THE SUPREME COURT OF INDIA. The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH had to call attention to a painful subject. He believed that one or more officers em played in the supreme court of justice in Calcutta, in the receipt and custody of money, had been found defaulters to a very great extent under moot disgraceful circumstances. Some measure ought to be introduced on the subject which would contain previsions with a view to gusrd the public against the repetition of such shameful conduct. He wished to know whether the government intended to introduce a measure on the subject? The Marquis of LANSDOWNE also thought the transac tion alluded to one of a most disgraceful character. As soon as the facts became known, one of the highest officers of the court was directed to take such steps as were in his power to correct the evil. No time was lost in investigating it; and at this moment a case was laid before the law officers of the crown with a view to ascertain how this transaction stood in a legal point of view, and as soon as they had made their report the government would have to consider whether they would not bring in a bill on the subject. Their lordships adjourned at 6 o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—THURSDAT, MAT 11. The SPEAREE took the chair at 4 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS.

EXCISE LAWS (SCOTLAND). Sir G. GREY, in answer to • questicn from Mr. Dili CAN, , stated that two bills had been prepared in order to do away with the injustice committed by the present excise laws of Scotland, and that he only awaited a proper opportunity for bringing them in. POSTAGE RATES IN AMERICA. Sir G. GREY, in reply to Mr. Hums, stated that nothing had been done towards equalising the rates of postage be tween England and the United States, though he had not abandoned all hope that such might be 'flirted. THE BUDGET. Colonel SIBTHORP inquired when the general subject of expenditure which had been referred to the committee up stairs would be brought on by the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, in order that its various details might be considered by the house ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER did not alto gether understand the hon. and gallant member's question, but if it referred to any statement he might have to make as to the finances he thought it had better be deferred until a later period of the session, for in the present uncertain state of everything that in any way affected commerce, every day's experience was of advantage in enabling ministers to form an opinion as to the probable revenue. He was happy, however, to have it in his power to state the customs were improving, the receipts from that source having exceeded thou of the corresponding week in the last year. (Cheers.) AMERICAN POSTAGE REGULATIONS. Mr. BRIGHT wished to know whether government wan aware that a bill had been brought into the American legis lature, having for its object the establishment of a re= system of postage as against us, which it was should continue so long as our regulations u to America letters remained in force ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER had re ceived information somewhat to the effect stated by the hon. gentleman ; who was mistaken only in one point—that W3O to say, that the proposed law in America would in fact impose a higher postage duty on the citizens of America, while it would not affect thole of this country. (Hear.) THE WAR BETWEEN DENMARK AND PRUSSIA Mr. URQUHART had given notice of • question as to the recognition, by our government, of the legality of tie blockade by Denmark of the Prussian ports—what he wished to ask was whether in the altered state of circumstances which had arisen, her Majesty's government were o: opinion that the guarantee given by the treaty of 1720 applied, and was still binding on the parties? Lord J. RLSSELL : Her Majesty's government do rot think that the guarantee of 1720 applies under the present state of circumstances between Prussia and Denmark. THE WEST INDIES. Mr. HUME observed that his motion as to the state of our West Indian Colonies, which had been postponed from time to time, in order that the house might first have the report of the select committee on that subject, now stood on the no tice paps for Tuesday next. Could the noble lord, the chairman of that committee, state whether the report would be in the hands of members by that day ? Lord G. BENTINCK must refer the bon. gentleman for an answer to the President of the Hurd of Trade and the hon. member for Westbury, to whom certain propositions had been submitted to report upon. From what he had gathered from them, he feared the report would not he presented for three weeks or a month. Mr. LABOUCHERE said that a very voluminous report bad been prepared by the noble lord, involving upwards of 230 distinct proposition, and it was only reasonable that time should be given for considering them before they were called upon to affirm or dissent from them. The committee now stood adjourned to Thursday next, by which time those who did not agree with the noble lord were to put their views before them. He was as anxious as the noble lord that the committee should close its labours as soon as possage, and he hoped they would be enabled to report on the day mentioned. Mr. HUME, in answer to an objection to further pest ! ponement urged by Mr. Barclay, promised in the course of to-morrow (this day) to fix definitively a day for his motion. PUBLIC BUSINESS. Lord J. RUSSELL proposed, that on and after Monday next public business should commence at half-past 4, instead of 5 o'clock. (Hear, hear.) COPPER AND LEAD DUTIES BILL. Lord G. BENTINCK hoped that whenever this bill wee brikatit on for a second reading, it would be at such an hour as would afford an opportunity of discussing it fully. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER observed that it stood for a arcond reading that night, but looking at the business standing before it, he did not think it could come on at a very ear:y hour, if at all. Mr. 111:17 expressed a hope that the subject would be brought on with as little delay as possible. THE HORSHAM WRIT. Mr. GORING rose to move, pursuant to notice, "that Mr. Speaker do issue his warrant to the clerk of the crown to make out a new writ for the election of a burgess to serve in this present parliament for the borough of Horsham, in the room of John Jervis, Esq., whose election has been de termined to be Told." As government did not appear to have any intention of proceeding with the bill promised by the noble lord for instituting an immediate inquiry into the alleged corruption at the late election, he on the part of the electors of the borough of Horsham protested against the indefinite suspension of the writ until the general measure of the hon. member for the Flint boroughs (Sir J. Hammer), which no one couldrauppose would pass, should be decided upon. Lord J. RUSSELL. should certainly advise the house not to issue the writ until some inquiry had been instituted. It did not appear to him clear whether that inquiry should be by means of a committee of the home, or by commisaionen on the spot ; but it had been suggested to him, and on the whole he thought it the better course, that as there was a general measure before the house for instituting einnler in quiries, by means of a commission to be appointed for the purpose, se to ether boroughs agai nst erbleih, do eke report of election committees, similes. srationale corrupt practices had been made, this case better, be included fn that general measure with the others. (Hear.) Mr. HUDSON thought, after the please the noble lord had given on the previous occasion, sultan the faith of which alone the wait had been suspended (heir hear), it was due • to the house, as well es to the electors eC Hug= that the noble lord should proceed with his bat see to borough without waiting for the general inquiry by eo=rrsi under the bill of the hon. member for the nag Lord J. RUSSELL denied that the house had oeselnued the suspension of the writ in consequence of any pledge given ,by him. At the requeat of the home he hod mommed to 1
