The Hallways, for the completion of which £160,000 are re quired, are already producing el per cent. on the cost of their construction, after paying all the working expenses, which in clude full provision for maintaining the permanent way and rolling stock in the highest state of edielency.

The sum of 0130,000 has been from time to time expended from the ordinary resources of the colony in the creation and maintenance of works of defence. It has been determined by the Legislature that the very large amount of property at stake requires that the harbour defences of Melbourne shall be com pleted, and glOO,OOO are required towards that object. The climate and soil of Victoria are fit for the production of all that can be profitably grown in Southern Europe, but a re gular supply of water is essential for the development alike of the agricultural, mining, and pastoral resources of the country, and for this aoo.noo are required. The City of Melbourne and its admen are supplied with water from a reservoir constructed for the purpose ; and e'- though the wort was undertaken at a time when labour was dearest, it returns eight per cent. on the original outlay.

LONDON, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27. THE King of SAXONY has accepted the terms i upon which the Prussian Government was willing to permit him to return to his States ; and very hard they are found to be. Saxony enters the North German Confederation in accordance with the treaty made by Prussia with her late imperial ally, beingthe first German kingdom whose ruler has accepted a dependent position, and acknowledged the sovereignty of the Prussianmonarch. The virgin fortress of Konigstein, and also the capital, are to be garrisoned jointly by Prussian and Saxon sol diers. The Saxon army, which fought so well on the Austrian side in Bohemia, is to return and be placed under Prussian command ; it is to be reor ganized upon conditions which are to be decided, not at Dresden, hut by the North German Confederation, and in the meantime Prus sia will furnish garrisons for Leipeic, Baut zen, Zwickau, and the other chief towns of the kingdom. The diplomatic representation of Saxony will pass into the hands of Prussia, which is also to have control over the telegraphic commu nications of the kingdom. Lastly, the country is to pay to Prussia a war indemnity of ten million dollars, or about thirteen and four pence a head for every man, woman, and child in the kingdom. Looking at the attributes of sovereignty in Saxony which the King of Parana has secured to himself by this engagement, we are tempted to ask what is left for King JOHN, and what can be the ground for the tenacity with which that unfor tunate KING clings to an impaired and degraded title. This treaty reduces him to the rank of a THE Mipß! Prussian prefect. His sovereignty has dep. those who nominally remain his subjeds wts. longer look up to him for the supreme direction of public - policy. He may preside over muleumb .t tlttire galleries, and schools, and sign bills for the regulation of fbrests and fisheries; but as often as : any questions arise to stir the mind of the people, they will look for a solution, not to him or his advisers, but to Berlin. As we all know, the Knee has not accepted these terms before making and confirming by painful experi ment the discovery that he could get no better from his ruthless conquerors. But it seems to impartial observers that downright abdication would have been a more eligible course than a re turn to a throne which will henceforth owe all its lustre to the personal qualities of is occupant. It is easy for those who have never been exposed to similar trials to imagine what they would do in like circumstances, though far frost easy to enter into all the considerations, many of them of an unselfish character, which must enter into the resolution actually taken ; but it certainly appears that King Joint makes a greater sacrifice by accepting the only public position left open to him by Prussia, than would be made in laying down an office from which the virtue and dignity have departed. The future position of Saxony will not, how ever, depend wholly on the Kum's resolution ; the people will have to consider whether the situsr tion made fortheircountryisone which it is for their interest to accept. Hitherto they have not been accustomed to the sight of a foreign soldiery in time of peace ; their own King has been their Sove reign ; their army, as well as their civil pervice, has been formed of their fellow citizens, and their laws have been made by their own Parliament. Will they not feel that this treaty de prives them of their proper rank in Europe f They have ceased to be Saxons in the old inde pendent sense, without having acquired a title to share in the prerogatives of the Prussians. " Second-class Prussians" Count Bismsace once styled those who accepted Prussia► superiority when they might have become Prussian► citizens. Remembering. what the Saxons have been and what it is in their power to become, it is im possible to believe that the state of relations con templated by this treaty will endure. It is well known that the commercial and professional classes in Saxony, perceiving that nothing but the uncertainty of suspense can attend any other arrangement, are in favour of full annexation to Prussia. This was the feeling underlying the proceedings at the great meeting recently held at Leipzic, and it is one which events may ripen. 1 In the country districts of Saxony, and also I among the upper classes, the national, as distinct from the union, sentiment is stronger, but all the interests of the country will be served by the closest incorporation with Prussia ; and this conviction must imperceptibly but surely determine the public inclination. Personally, the KING is one of the most estimable of European princes—a man of highly cultivated tastes, an archwologist, a scholar, and an author. But his political career has not been happy. The Crown has steadily resisted attempts to give Saxony a real Parliament, in the modern sense of the word. The Diet, consti tuted on the medieval type, is composed of " orders," and the Deputies in the Lower House must belong to the order, class, or district which elects them. The Chambers only meet once in three years, and the members of the Lower House are elected for nine years. Popular representation was found impossible, as it was meant to be, under such a constitution ; the consequence was that the KINO found that a Parliament with authority so limited was powerless to support him in the hour of need, while the intelligence and ener g y of the country, which had been left outside the constitu tion, were either indifferent to him, or arrayed against him. At the great meeting held at Leipzic the Government was roundly accused of perjury and treason, and its title to govern was denied. The Government of the King of Ssxoyv, irritated by this language, ordered the prosecution of the speakers. But the King of PRUSSIA has covered them with his protection, by an article of the treaty which stipulates that no person politically compromised during the war shall be molested on that account. King JOHN has returned to his capital ; but his MAJESTY can hardly be congra tulated on the prospect which opens before hid want OUR CONTEMPORARIES. (THIS DAY.) The ambition of princes having probably ceased to be the great cause of war in Europe, there is now, the Times thinks, another element of disturbance in the dis content of races. The principle of nationality has triumphed in the west, but in the far east the prospect is gloomy. It will require all the skill of Viennese adminis tration to maintain the Empire against such forces as will now be at work to dissolve it. No great discernment is required to perceive that even the German provinces of the empire are not safe from the attraction which is carry ing Bavaria and Wurtemberg into the Prussian Confeder ation ; and if at the same time a Sciavic and orthodox propaganda be set to work by Russia, the process of disin tegration may by rapid. In another article the Times suggests that it is a very proper matter for inquiry whether some additional omn pensation cannot be given in those districts which have suffered most severely by the cattle plague. The unmitigated despotism which is now crushing the people of Spain is denounced by our contemporary in in dignant terms. A Madrid degree ostracises any foreign newspaper which may contain an article hostile to the present Spanish rule, and this decree must be fatal to the entry of the Times into the kingdom, inasmuch as it says that the Queen seems determined to win Herren by mak ing of the country submitted to her sway as much of a hell upon earth as the most senseless tyranny can contrive. Of the death of Mr. Snider, the Times observes that a t the moment when the arsenals of the kingdom are ringing with labour concentrated upon his invention, the inventor has expired in penury and affliction, without ever having touched a single sixpence of remuneration or profit. As he lay dying a lump sum of 1,0301. was thrown to his creditors, and the debts which he bad contracted in the pursuit of this secret are lessened to that amount, but there, as far as he himself was concerned, ends all that was done by a grateful country. The Daily News treats of the remarkable statistics pre. 'rented totbe Social Science Association by the Manchester Education Aid Society, considering them as important not only to the people of Manchester but to the country at larg In the matter of the attack on the Archbishop of Can terbury for laying the foundation atone of an episcopal church in Scotland, the Da it p Nees takes up the cudgels for the archbishop, and twits the Times with representing the bond of state churches to be not community of doctrine, discipline, and worship, but equality of position as to en_ dowments, pre-eminence, and other mundane advantages, The archbishop repudiated the idea that the prelates of the church of England pretended to exercise authority in Scotland, and the attacks upon him do not proceed from the Scotch newspapers or the representatives of the Scottish church, who well know that if the mode rator of the general assembly of their national church were to appear in London next week, and lay the founda tion of a presbyterian place of worship, no English clergy man would be found so wanting in sense and propriety as to charge him with casting a slur on the church of Eng. land. The Pose discusses Italian and Spanish affairs, and com ments upon the Lite lamentable death by drowning at Ox ford, contending that in the latter case there wu great Is, :13. ETA y p reca ai t asec and a tof AWNS' of I er ' The g e e doubts r say Mira German ment is likely to meet at all, and thinks that in the interest of the freedom of Germany it would be better • s hould not. The Prussian Landteg and the parliament cannot coexist with anything like the attribates they now claim. One or the other must mass to exist or fade away into a mere shadow, and all the probabilities are in favour of the belief that the parliament will seer that fate. The secret of the Sheffield outrage, the Herald inlets, cannot be in the sole possession of any single individual ; there must have been principals and there must have been agents in the transaction. The fact that even a reward of 1,2401. hu not tempted any one to break the silence is the most ominous feature of all. Referring to the gross miscarriage of justice at Bolton, in which a rebut was sentenced to merely three months' Imprisonment, with hard labour, for one of the most brutal assault; on a lady ever recorded, the Telegraph demands from Mr. Walpole an immediate inquiry into the circumstance. There is no pickpocket, or fence, or poacher, or swindler, who when he receives his sentence may not contrast it with this man's, and bitterly deride the in. equalities of our law, unless the senseless men who have brought Quarter Sessions to such ridicule 1.3 degraded. THE WEEKLY PRESS. While the Morning Advertiser and Record are bewailing the election of the Rev. F. D. Maurice to a pro. fessorship at Cambridge, the Spectator congratulates the University on its choice, than which it says a better could not be made. Perhaps, indeed, it is open to the criticism that Professor Maurice will be severely tempted to lecture againstthe supposed soignee of casuistry, and for a professor to disprove the existence of the subject which be professes would be a scandal to the University. Even if Professor Maurice successfully resists this temptation, and dilates at length on the finer distinctions of the Jesuitical ethics, it fears it will be by way of proving that casuistry, like a post merino examination, only dissects tissues that are already dead. It is happy to learn that this appointment will not interfere with Mr. Maurice's tenure of the Vera-street Chapel, which he still retains. In the highest sense of the ward a preacher, it would have been better for the lecturer to be merged in the preacher, than the preacher lost in the lecturer. It is stated, not without pardonable triumph, by the conservative papers that the Poet Laureate has sent a contribution to the Eyre Defence and Aid Fund. The Spectator regrets to hear it, not because it feels the least grudge to Mr. Eyre, or wishes to see him individually suffer more than he has already suffered, but because it holds both the legal and moral condemnation of Mr. Eyre's conduct by the public, to be of the first political import ant), for the future, and Mr. Tennyson's support will un doubtedly weigh heavily with men in general in lightening or averting the latter. Dad Mr. Eyre permitted and ap. proved in Yorkshire, or even in Ireland, under the same circumstances, precisely what he permitted and approved in Jamaica, those who are now crying up his heroism would have demanded his execution, and yet there would not have been an iota of greater guilt in that case than in this. Does Mr. Tennyson classify the military massacre in Jamaica amongst the precedents on which he speaks in that noble poem concerning the Freedom that broadens slowly down From precedent to precedent? The defence of Sir Morton Peto is very insufficient in the view of the Spectator. Quiet persons all over England itaelf are at this moment poorer by millions sterling in con sequence of acts which Sir Morton Peto has helped to do, and which he now explains as ordinary operations, ren dered necessary or excusable by solicitors' advice, or the necessities of enormous and beneficial transactions. When y. Plan like bins defends the manufacture of shares as • common proceeding, and the over-issue of debentures by sa yin g they were valueless, and he therefore raised money on them, and the stoppage of monies entrusted fora special purpose in transitu, the country is evidently in need of some moral tonic, to prevent degeneracy becoming active disease. The Examiner regard. the appointment of Mr. Bolt to the office of Attorney-General as an appointment as ac ceptable to the profession as it is significant to the public. A sound lawyer, a trained advocate, a man of honour, and, in every sense of the term, a gentleman, the bar could wish for no fitter men to be its chief batonnier. To the public Mr. Rolt's appointment is a suggestive indication of conservative no-policy ; for, politically, Mr. Molt is a nonentity. He is reputable, erudite, and estimable, de corous and dignified if you will, but essentially an unde monstrative man, with nothing particular of his own to say for or against any great question ; and therefore most appropriately selected for a mouthpiece by an ailministn- Lion that does not yet know its own mind, and that is still looking about for a policy. The Saturday Reriew, in the course of some comments on Mr. Forster's Bradford address, allows that the demo cratic institutions of the Americans permitted or enabled them to conduct the war with extraordinaly vigour and pet Opacity. A large extension of the suffrage would render England more warlike, and therefore more powerful ; and perhaps it might tend to transfer some of the functions now exercised by local authority to the central govern ment. The popular assumption that administrative efficiency is incompatible with a constitutional or parliamentary system is hasty, and at beet ex aggerated ; but there is reason to believe that an assembly elected by a numerous constituency would be more wiling than the existing parliament to net a wide discretion in the executive. There is a satisfaction in dwe"ing on any practical benefit which may possibly ensue from impending changes ; and Is is a relief to meet, as in Mr. Forster's case, with an argument for reform which is not composed of calumny, of menace, and of intimidation. To the intelligence of the Saturday Rerier,a portion of the hon. baronet's explanation at BI:stol looks very like a full admission and confession, on Sir Morton Pettis part, that be was a party to the creation of spurious and illegal documents pretending to be what they were not in law, and on the primal facie look and guarantee of wbich, I eing all the while mere waste paper, he raised funds from, or at least deposited them as valuable security with, the Financial Company. It has been Sir Mor ton Peto's lot on several previous occsaions to have to make explanations of this sort, and to account for the foundering of railway schemes which be , has either promoted, leased, contracted for, or directed. I No doubt the Colchester Railway, and the North of Europe Steam Company, and the Grand Trunk of Canada are old stories; ; and we all remember how their mis- I chances have been explained. Few public men and finan cien have had so much experience in explanation as Sir • Morton Pete ; but in his case practice has not yet made 1 perfect. However, as be says with great truth, " the matter cannot rest where it is at present." REFORM DEMONSTRATION AT LEICESTER. —Next I Monday, the town of Leicester will witness a political de- I monstration on a scale of magnitude which hu not been paralleled at any previous period. In parliament sod out of parliament, the working classes of this country have ; been taunted with their indifference to their own piPtical interests, and thus challenged to the proof of their earnewiness and seal in their own cause of political emancipation. As far as thin town is concerned, they will supply their response to the taunt and the ; challenge in Le:cester market-place, next Monday after noon. In the even;ng a general meeting of reformers will I assemble in the Temperance Hall, at which Joseph Whet- I stone, Eq., a friend of the popular cane during four de- cedes at least, who is trusted and respected by liberals of I all shades, has consented to preside. The resolutions have I been so framed as not to pledge the meeting to any ab strut or theoretic propositions, but to a practical and sub stantial reform bill, the purpose of which shall be to give to the working-classes that full and fair share in the repre sentation of the country from which they are now ex cluded.—Lrirester Chronicle. THE LATE MB. FISHER HOBBS. After the burial, which noticeably enough was within a few yards of the place of his birth, at White Colne, the will of Mr. Fisher Hobbs was read in the presence of a number of re latives and friends who attended the funeral on Thursday last. The great bulk of his property goes to his cousin, Mr. William Hobbs, of Selinge, near Hythe, with rever sion of the landed estate to another cousin, Mr. Henry Hobbs, a brother of Mr. William Hobbs, and also a native of Kent. Annuities are left to the two misters and the housekeeper of the deceased, and small legacies to distant relatives and god-children. To his two trustees, Messrs. J. T. Helium and H. Trethewy, he gives 501. each ; to the Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institution the sum of 500/. ; to the Colchester Hospital, 100/. ; and to the Essex Idiot Asylum, 100 i. To Messrs. Hall Dare, Brandreth Gibbs, and Henry Corbet, as the official representatives of the three national Agricultural Institutions, he directs the payment of legacies of 100/. each ; and to another friend, M. de Trehonnais, he leaves the selection of any works from his agricultural library. Mr. Hobbs, it may be added, had neither brother nor nephew.—Surrey Stan dard. EVENING, ' t' `.. Witt . ICTOBER • BALMORAL, OCT. 25.

The Earl of Kalmesbury is expected to arrive at his residence in Stratford-plaos on Monday next from Heron Court, near Chrirtehurch. Count de Flahault is unable to leave town for Paris, owing to slight indisposition. Lord Ashburton, since his arrival in town in the early part of the week from his country seat, on his way to Paris, has been confined to the house by severe indispo sition. Last evening it was said that his loidship was better, and was improving gradually. The Right Hon. Sir Robert Peel, Bart, M.P., returned to town last night from Newmarket. Vice-Admiral Sir George Rodney Mundy, K.C.8., will succeed Sir James Hope, G.C.8., as com mander-in-chief on the North American and West Indian station. The Rev. Morley Punahon is stated to be so seriously ill as to preclude any hope, though he may yet live many years, of his being able ever to write or preach again. The Adrertiaer has reason for believing that the vacant bishopric of Calcutta has been offered to the Rev. Dr. Goulburn, of St. John's, Paddington. Six Chamber Concerts, to be given during the course of the winter, are advertised at the Hanover-square Rooms. Mr. Halle's winter concerts at the Free-trade Hall, Manchester, began on Thursday last. The committee of the Society of Arta devoted to musical education has resumed its sittings. We (A thenceum) understand that a new set of songs, by our Laureate, may be expected, and that they are to be set to music by Mr. A. S. Sullivan. The King of the Belgians has conferred the Order of Leopold on Mr. Frith, R.A., whose picture of " Ramsgate Sands " has recently been exhibited at Brussels. The Winter Exhibition of thelnetitute of Painters in Water Colours will open on the sth proximo. The private view nal take place on Saturday next, the 3rd proximo. The ritualist controversy in the correspondence columns of the Times is waxing rather warm. What it has yet in store we cannot tell, but the writers must be getting under the influence of no little excitement when one of them, the rector of Chialehurst, says in reference to another clergyman, the incumbent of St. John's, Brixton :—" I fear that for any one deliberately to kneel and to ' receive the Holy Ghost' for the office and work of spriest. and then to call this in fact' • sham,' and deny that he is • priest, must be terribly near, if it be not a sin against the Holy Ghost.'" A return has been published of all the joint stock eompanis: formed during the two years from the 31st of May, 1864, to the 31st of May last, when the fur ther creation of such undertakings was effectually stopped by the panic. It appears that the total of companies under limited liability brought out in England alone during the 24 months was 1,760, or at the rate of 73 per mouth ; that in Ireland during the same period 85 were introduced, or at the rate of rather more than three per mouth ; and that in Scotland the proportion was 57, or rather more than two per month. Besides this there were 41 companies es tablished in England on the unlimited principle, and 32 in the mining districts on the cost-book system. In Ire land there was only one unlimited company formed, and in Scotland the number was 12. The aggregate of com panies, limited, unlimited, and cost-book, formed in the United Kingdom in the two years was 1,988, or at the rate of 83 per month. The total of limited companies created in the United Kingdom since the passing of the act in 1162 has been 5.589, of which a large proportion have already been wound up or are undergoing that pro cess. The Italian journal, the Diritto, states that all the monks at Palermo have been ordered to leave aside the monastic habit without delay. A line of steam-carriages for common roads, the experiments with which have succeeded so well between Nantes and Paris, is about to be established from Mar seilles to Aubagne, a small town situated sixteen kilo- metres (10 miles) off. There are to be three departures daily from each end, and the price of a return ticket will be only Hr. 20c. THE QUEEN IN SCOTLAND. —On Thursday her Majesty drove from Balmoral by Aboyne and Tarland to Monyirusk, where she err red about noon. Her Majesty visited the spot locally known as Paradise, about a mile from the village of Monytuusk. In returning she called at Castle Forbes. one of the finest meats on Donede, where the Mute- of Forbes is residing. After a short stay her Majesty returned to Balmoral by the same route ; the drive, going and returning, being about ninety miles. Her Majesty will return to Windsor on Thursday via Aberdeen. --Seutsman. THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS OF WALES.—NOR WICH, FRIDAY EVENINO.—The preparations for the visit of their Royal Highnesses the Prirce and Princess of Wales to Norwich have now reached • very advanced stage, althoulh, to the great disappoir -went of the citicens, it has transpired that the royal visitors will leave Costessey-hall (the seat of Lord Stafford), and consequently Norwich, on the Thunday in the festival week. This step has been rendered necessary in consequence of the Prirce of Wales having determined to comm:noe his journey , to 1 5... Petersburg at the close of next week. The result is that their royal highnesses will rot attend the ball which closes the festival, while they will not be able to be pre -1 sent at more than two or three of the concerts. The Prince and Prircess, with the Queen of Denmark, and ac- I tompanied by General Knoil and Major Grey (in waiting upon the Prince), the Hon. Mrs. Stoner (in waiting upon the Princess), the Countess Roventlow (in waiting upon the Queen of Denmark), and Ci.ptain Cruschiold, will leave Sandringham-house on Tuesday by special train, and will arrive pnvately at Dereham, thence proceeding to Oedema) , ball. In the evening there will be a dinner party at the h_ll,and on the followinl morning theirroyal highnesses and I suite will make their entry into No-with. It is expected that the royal party will be escorted iromCostessey as far as I the boundaly of the city of Norwich, on the Dereham read, by the Norfolk Light Horse, under the command of Captain Gurney, and the tenantry of Lord Stafford, ' mounted. At the city bourdaif the Prince and Princess I will be received by the Mayor of Norwich, the deputy mayo.., the sheriff, and the city officers; and • procession will be formed, which will pass along St. Giles's-street to the Guildhall, where addresses will be presented from the mayor and town council and the bishop and clergy of the diocese. After this ceremonial the royal party will attend I the morning performance in conrexion with the Norwich Musical Festival, and in the afternoon they will proceed to Chapel Feld, where they will plant two trees to comme mo ate their visit, and inaugurate a drill shed for the local volunteer corps. The Prince and Princess will then return to Costeuey-hall, where there will be • ball in the evening. I The illuminations which will take place in Norwich on the I Wednesday evening will be of the most varied and ex tensive character. Two troops of the Ist Dragoon Guards have been ordered from the camp at Colchester to Nor wich, and will serve as an escort. A large body of the Manchester Unity of Odd Fellows will keep the lme from the Crescent entrance to Chapel Field to the space enclosed for the planting of the trees. This morning a meeting of some of the pnncipal ladies of Norwich was held to con cert measures for presenting some appropriate present to the Princess. LORD CLARENDON'S HEALTH.—In reference to a statement concerning Lord Clarendon's health made by the London correspondent of the Manchester Guardian, and re-produoed the day before yesterday in the Mes senger, we have received a communication from a corres pondent likely to be well-informed, assuring us that the whole account is altogether incorrect. " His lordship did not leave England," says the recti fi cation, " until towards the end of September, when his health had become quite restored by • sojourn of some weeks at Buxton. He then went to Paris, and afterwards to Switzerisnd, where be was recently seen in excellent health and spirits, and is at this moment, probably, at Rome, having made arrange ments to return thence direct to England at the beginning of December. The cause assigned for Lord Clarendon's illness last summer is likewise entirely without founds • • ‘7"l T I T INTEILLICIPCE. ParegraPhe rine e---Yanzp well as a& PRUSSIA.

The Temps of to-day says : The Spanish government continues its work of re vising the whole of lie political organisation and of : eliminating all the independent and living els- , manta which the sacristy and the camp have not quenched. The Nervier ministry have not failed in their task. They have suppressed all disagreeable journals, and as for journalists they have been banded over to courts martial, who, with a view of teaching respect for the established authorities, have iards condemned them to death. Then, with a view of preserving Span from foreign poison, foreign and French journa ls have been prohibited. Not being able to shoot or imprison us, the government have simply resolved that the moment a French journal should attack it or the established religion, its circulation should be for ever prohibited. (REUTERS TELIORANS.) THE CANDIAN INSURRECTION. ALEXANDRIA, OCT. 25. News received here from Greek sources states 1 that a great battle took place in Candia on the ' 17th inst. between the Cretans, who numbered 20,000 men, and the combined Turkish and Egyptian troops, 30,000 strong. The latter are stated to have been repulsed and Ismail Pacha , wounded. ARRIVAL OF THE TEUTONIA. SOUTHAMPTON, Ocr. V. The Hamburg and American Company's steam- ship Teutonia, from New York on the 13th inst., has strived here with 60 passengers for Havre and Hamburg, 50,000 dolls. in specie for England, and 15,000 dole. in specie for France.

Neither the Moniteur nor the Constitatinnuet mention the Emperor's having gone out shooting yesterday. He may have been prevented by busi ness rather than by health, for the long walks which he took at Biarritz by advice of his medical attendants were highly beneficial to him. M. Rouher is nominated by decree in this morning's Munite'tr to hold the portfolio of M. do Lavaletto during his absence at his country seat near Bergerac. All the members of the foreign diplomacy at pre sent in Paris attended a reception at M. tic Moustier's yesterday. There is no other news re lating to public affairs except the return of M. Haussmann, whose absence has not been remarked in any diminution of the zeal with which pave ments arc torn up, and houses pulled down. The news which I sent of the Emperor Max'. milian's immediate return is confirmed on all sides. The papers this evening announce that tlic municipality of Vera Cruz has received orders to provide quarters for 20,000 men. They wi be embarked at the end of December or be ginning of January. The Note Presse of Vienna brings us the assurance not only that the ex-Em peror will proceed at once to Miramar (it wr hardly to be expected he would come here I thank France for broken promises or to explai his own failure), but it adds that the United Stab government will give Juarez the aid of its trooj to restore his government. This decision ml have been come to at Washington, but it w hardly be acted upon at once, as the insult France would be too glaring even for a Napoleon magnanimity. The commission established to watch over ti distribution of the subscriptions fur the victims the inundations has held its first sitting under tl presidency of M. Forcade de la Roquette. Aci cular from the Minister of Public Works was col mwticatecl to the members, in which he enjoins tl classification of the sufferers under four headc those whose penury is extreme ; those whose losses have been very heavy, but who have not lost and who may, if aided, recover what they ha.) lost. The third category is to contain the name of those whose losses have been severe, whose position of fortune enables them support them ; and, finally, those wht losses have been insignificant, either fro, their trifling extent or the large fortune of sufferers. The nature of the damage, whether capital, furniture, or crops, is to be noted. Thi commission decided to accept the offers of gifts kind, whether articles of clothing or plants, see& &e., for distribution. A place to which they be sent will be designated by a notice in the Me, tear. The whole subscription up to yesterda; amounted only to 50,0001. With wise economy, the French government already finding purchasers for its old-fashion arms. It has sold to the government of the King of Siam 12 mountain mortars, GOO shells, 1,200 fulminating wads. The Emperor has agreed to the sale of 48 more mortars, which of a description no longer used in the French arm The frauds committed at Marseilles on the toms and all other modes of indirect taxm have always been notorious in France. Bmuggl has never been a serious offence in the eyes of people of any frontier town ; but a new descript. of fraud against the revenue is of a different charac ter. A razzia was made one day lately on workshops and shops of the jewellers and sil' smiths of the town. Eighteen controllers of the .. and fifty policemen with their officers invad& these establishments at an early hour. The resin was the discovery of old or false dies for stami the " hall mark," and it is stated that these used not only to defraud the revenue but the chaser also, the gold and silver articles cheaply guaranteed being in fact only gilt and plated. This fraud has gone on, it is said, for twenty years, and has only been discovered by the denunciation of the traveller of one of these establishments, who had been dismissed. Nine persons have been arrested. The discovery has created a great sensation, as no one knows whether his plate and jewellery contain any gold or silver or not. At the Bourse there is a great improvement• The rumours of an intended loan were generally contradicted, and all this evening's papers contain I ~`i ►+!' ~. i
