PARIS, FRIDAT MoaxiNo. The elections at Paris for supplying the places of the late General Cavaignac, and of MM. Carnot and Goadchaux, are fixed to take place on the 25th inst. (num ova OWN CORKESPONDINT.) PARIS, TutknD.tT EVZNINO. Two telegrams received this day have caused con siderable uneasiness at the It,urse. One, from Bone. states that, according to a verbal statement made by Dr. Kern to the &dire! Council, the French government will withdraw its ext. yuleur from all the French consuls in Swit zerland, unless the new ones are received. I do not myself think there is any probability of a breach between France and Switzerland on this question. It is obvious that the French govern ment seer, upon reflection, that under the excitement occasioned by the Orsini affair its diplomatic agents carried the passport I nuisance to an absurd extent, and one which, though annoying to other countries, must be especially injurious to France herself. It is an nounced this very day that more reasonable regula tions are to be made with regard to England, and I have little doubt that in on. form or another the pretensions to which Swit :mend rightly objects will be withdrawn. The tone taken in official quarters is that the Swiss journals have been making much ado about nothing, that the instructions to al! foreign governments are aniform,and that the supposition of Switzerland, that specially harsh conditions are sought to be conferred upon her, is altogether a mistake. The other news, which has a more serious aspect, is that the Nea politan government has sent back to Sardinia the last note sent relative to the affair of the Cagliari. People talk at once of the probability of war between l'islazoot and Naples. I think this a most unlikely contingency. The Piedmon woe government has doubtless asoimed a very ener getic attitude on the subject, and may probably go solar as to withdraw its ambassador; but I have much reason to believe that it will not go further. The article of the Patrie which I sent you yesterday is perhaps a more serious indication of breakers ahead than either of the pieces of news which excited the susceptibility of the Holum, end it no doubt greatly contributed to the extreme depression which pre vailed to-day.

The bill providing for an increase in fits army had been passed by the House of Representatives. It provides for the organisation of regiments of mounted men for the defence of the frontier of Texas, and authorises the President to employ four regiments of volunteers to quell disturbances in Utah, protect the emigrant trains, and keep the Indians in the northwest in order. It is very doubtful if the bill can pan the Senate; and it is believed that the Government will not avail them selves of the volunteer force, even should the Senate pass it. The Senate had adopted a resolution directing in quiry as to what measures have been taken to punish the murderer% of a party of 118 emigrants while on their journey acmes the plains to California. The offence is charged upon the Mormons, but they lay it to the Indians. Navigation has been resumed on the Hadson River between New York and Albany. Dense fogs had prevailed near New York, and several serious steamboat accidents recorded, but without lova of li re. The ship Adriatic, which escaped from the French authorities at Maneides, had arrived out at Sa vannah. The New York State Senate, by a party vote, bad adopted a resolution condemning the Kansas policy of Mr. Buchanan's administration. A Washington telegram says the house committee on foreign affairs was considering the propriety of abrogating the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, and it was considered highly probable they would report in favour of the abrogation. The Collins steamers were to be sold at auction in New York, on April 1. A fight had occurred in the New York House of Assembly between two member', and one of them, Mr. Chatfield, was taken into custody by the Sergeant -at-Arms.

We have this morniug received papers from Melbourne to Feb. 16, and from Sydney to Feb. 10. Oa the former date the Victoria, with the English mails of the 16th of December, was twelve days overdue. So far, however, as dates are concerned, these mails had been anticipated by the arrival from Point de Chile of the colonial steamer City of Sydney, but private advices were anxiously looked for. With regard to the gold-fields, the recent stop page in those branches of industry which depend upon the supply of water had been of so serious a nature to the mining population that attention had become fairly aroused to the necessity of providing against future inconvenience and loss from drought. An aqueduct from the Coliban to the centre of Forest Creek has been projected, the country sur veyed, and the practicability of the undertaking ascertained. The inhabitants of Bendigo are turn ing their eyes towards tie extent of mountainous country which surrounds that district with the like object. The Besedigo ddrertiser says : A very considerable extent of mountainous country exists in the vicinity of this gold .field—most of it, too, at a high elevation. 'lto. chief portion of the range consists of gra nite formation, abounds in springs, and furnishes the source of a number of creeks of greater or learn importance. Are we quite eatialied that in this country there does not islet say area of watershed, or place capable of being formed by artificial means into an extensive gathering ground ? If we are not, why do we not tube means of satiefying ourselves on a subject of such interest ? These are practical movements, and such PA are best calculated to put an end to the ciy that the gold-fields of Victoria see dec;iaing. With emaciated enterprise in labour end capital, the older gokbfields will keep up their yield for a long time to coats, while those that ant new now will be ready for ionailar undertakings when the best miners shall have 'alum out all they can by their individual exertions. Of political matters, Mr. Mitchie's bill for provid ing public instruction was engrossing the greatest share both of public and private attention. The principle that the State, as a state, should only pro vide secular education for children has received dis tinct expression in a motion of Mr. Ireland's, which was carried on the 22nd of January by a majority of 27 to 10. This motion as finally carried, was— " That secular instruction only in the ordinary sense of the term shall be admitted in the schools to be established under this act, or in any of the buildings thereanto belonging." This clause has provoked very violent opposition on the part of various religious bodies, more par ticularly on that of the church of England. " Unless, however," says the Argus, " the Upper House should reject Mr. Mitchie's bill, there seems now at all events little reason to doubt that hence forward the state will not interfere to provide other than *scalar instruction. It will insist nevertheless that all children shall rawlye either private or public training of this kind." The Reform Bills were making progress through the lower house. Mr. Haines announced that the minis try would resign if the assembly declared itself unfavourable to the representation of minorities, and by twenty-four votes to seventeen, a scheme had been sanctioned, by which each voter is to be en dowed with the right to record as many votes u there may be candidates to be elected for his dis trict, but according to which he is to be at liberty to distribute them how he pleases, or to concentrate them all in favour of one candidate. Hitherto the elector, although at liberty to record only one vote or plumper if he pleased, has not been permitted to give more than one vote for any one candidate. The Argus reports of the mines : At Pleasant Creek the eyes of the miners are still tumid towards the advanced parties prospecting round the Gram pians and the Victoria ranges, in which directions this field appears to be spreading. Ararat has been dull. The works are stesdily progressing on the several deep lead s at &blares. Carnghani is almost deserted, but at the deep lead at Preston's then is more activity. At Bendigo, tnemost noticeable featu • is the small quantity of quartz gold that is now being pro duced—a tact that calls for explanation. The klary borough district has had the usual number of small rushee. At Tarrengower the ground about Hunter's sawpit, re ctaily opened, is still attracting sad retaining a numerous popuknon. The Goullourn miners are now wishing out, after having been at a standstill for want of water. We have heard of little doing in the Ovens district. The Buck land quartz-reefs are proved to be extensive, but not very rich, and it ie thought that they will not repay at pressed for the expanse of the transport of machinery so long a distance over a rough country. The following shipments of gold had liken made since the commencement of the year: twin. 01p. i Dloa. I Oa. ipper House the government mu Been dellsated upon the second rea din g of a bill entitled " A Bill to Secure the Independenoe of Parliament." This bill was rejected on the 3rd of Feb., in conse quence of its involving a change in the constitution, and thus requiring the assent of an absolute majority of the council, although the second reading was carried by 11 to 4 votes. The bill, if it had pissed, would have disqualified all persons in the receipt of publiopay, and not being members of the ministry, from sitting in parliament. The atrocities committed by the revolted in India have awakened in the colony a ver; e gL Y P l feeling of horror and of commiseration. A move ment nag been set on foot for the promotion of the fund for the relief of the surviving victims of the mutiny. "It is impossible," says the dryer, "to form even an approximate estimate of the amount that will be realised by private subscriptions, but from the general approval of the object of the fund, we have little doubt ttat it will be such as to con stitute a substantial token of sympathy. In the meantime, the sum of 25,00 W. has been appropriated in aid of this object by a unanimous vote of the Lower House of Parliament." In most of the agricultural districts the farmers had secured the bulk of their crops, and the harvest is much the largest ever gathered in Victoria. During the previous two or three weeks men of the labouring cWs had been in less demand. In many districts the greater part of the crops were secured, and the farmers had been paying otf their extra hands. " There is at present no work for these supernumeraries, nor will there be until the expenditure of the sums voted by parliament for buildings and improvements this year commences. Idle men are accumulating in town, where they ask higher wages than are accepted willingly by those in the country seeking employm en t. By all ac. counts the latter are already rather numerous, and their number is daily increased by men driven from the gold fields in consequence of a want of water."

Till? CANS 01 IRS CAGLIARI Dr. Ttavera Twigs, the Vicar-General, was re quested to advise the Sardinian government whether the documents submitted to him disclosed any sufficient ground , for the seizure Red detention of the Sardinian merchant ship II Cagliari by hie Sicilian M ijesty's steam cruisers II Tan ascii and L'Ettere Freraruoece, and hi. "opinion" has just been made known. After reviewieg the various circumstances Dr. Twine observes—" Upon the best consideration which I have been able to give to this most important question,which Involves in its simplest form soma intricacies of low, bat which has become involved in greater intricacies by the legal proceedings on the part of the Sicilian autho rities subsequent to the seizure, I am brought to the con clusion that the seizure and detention of the Cagliari under the circumstances stated in the log of the seizure was not justifiable by the law of nations, which is the only law whereby the cruisers of a sovereign power can be entitled to seize and detain on the high seas • merchant ship sailing under the protection of the flog of another sovereign. The right to demand the restitution of the ship, together with her master and crew, on the grouuds of the violation of the flag rests with the sovereign whose flog has been violated. If the High Criminal Court ►t Salerno, however, should condemn the muter and crew under the 123rd section of the penal law of the Two Sicilian and the Sicilian government should proceed to enforce the penalties of its municipal law against the crew of the Cagliari, it will be competent at such time if any of the crew should happen to be suliecta of any other foreign power than Serdinia, for that power to interfere in behalf of its subjects, on the ground that the municipal law of the seiner, cannot, under the circumstames of their seizure, be rightfully enforced against them. lam unwilling, however, to conclude this expression of my opinion as to what I apprehend to be the strict law ap plicable to the case of the Cagliari without alluding to a possible inconvenience which may seem to result from such a condition of the law—namely, that • state would be help less to check or punish outrages on its coasts which do not amount to piracy committed by vesicle under the mercan tile Beg of another state if sush vessels can only escape in time on to the high seas before the cruisers of the state fall in with them. The remedy, however, for such au anomaly, which is in practice more ideal than real, is found in the comity of nations, which tempera the strict law of nations just is equity tempers the application of the rules of posi tive law to civil transactions. The privilege of the flag, as already observed, is the privilege of the state, and when there is foals fats in the wrongdoers, the state, through mangey, waives its privilege, and extends no longer the wgis of its nationality over its subjects, but either permits the state which has been injured to avenge the breach of its laws through its own tribunals, or will assist it to obtain redress against the wrongdoer before the courts of their own country, if they have in any way made themselves amenable to punishment for a breach of their own laws." With reference to the condition of the markets, we can do nothing move than repeat the warnings of our previous mattbly beau,.. The stocks on hand are fast approaching to something like suftient for eighteen mtrothe consumption. Many kinds of go.4*, of a more or lee. perishable character, are being sacrificed at auctiais to an extent which would scarcely fail of producing some effect, except that even un favourable account salts du not appear to have any influence on ahipments to Australia. ST. PAUL'S PREACHERS.—The Bishop of London has appointed the Rev. F. C. Cook, M.A., one of her Majesty's inspectors of schools; the Rev. R. W. Browne, M.A., chaplain to the forces, and the Rev. J. Lupton, M.A., rector of Queenhithe, to be the special preachers at St. Paul's Cathedral for the present month. Dean Millman will preach on the morning of Raster Sunday. The sermon this (Good Friday) morning was preached by the Rev. T. G. Nicholas, WA., chaplain to the Lord Mayor. PRESENTATION OP A TROPHY BY THE ROYAL AITILLEST.-At the meeting of the Leeds town siouncil on Wednesday the mayor said be had received • letter from Ma* Freeklyn. on behalf of the men compsing the tatter, of the Royal Artillery stationed in Leeds, acknowledging the headmen., manner in which they wero treated when the Sebastopol guns were placed on Woodhoume-moor, and ex mooing thOr desire to testify their gratitude by presenting to the corporation • trophy which they had themselves cap tured at Sebastopol, to be placed with the guns on the moor.

THE LATE FIRE AND LOSE OF LIFE AT CAMDEN vowN.—An investigation by the directors of the poor of St. Pancras was Matituted at their weekly meeting on the sub ject of the late fire and lose of Wein Broadway-terrace, Cam den-town, and as to the complaints that the pariah engine what it arrived at the fire wee inefficient. In the course of the proceedings it was stated that there was at first a dearth of water, and that it wee the practice of turnaocks, in league with the brigade firemen, not to turn on a suMeismt supply for palish engines, until the brigade engines 'wired at a fire, when the perish engine wee shoved out of the way. It also cams ant that whilst the brigade gave men a shilling each for working their engines, the parish allowed nothing. Some remarks were made uponthe fact of there being no brigade en &•-stations in the northern districts of the metropolis. Oa the firemen and turncocks being had in for their rewards they denied the imputation upon them. The board resolved to empower their 13-emen to employ and pay moderate sums to persons to work the parish engine In futum, and notified to the tut ococks that in the event of any report that there was an Insufficient supply of water for the perish engine no re wards would be given.

The old savage idea of beauty was the lion, type of mere massive force. That was succeeded by an over-civilised ideal, say the fawn, type of delicate grace. By cunning breeding and choosing, through long centuries, man has combined both, and has created the foxhound, lion and fawn in one. Look at that old hound, who stands doubtful, looking up at his master for advice. Look at the severity, delicacy, lightness of every curve. Ha head IN finer than • deer's; his hind legs tense se steel springs ; his forelegs straight as arrows : and yet see the depth of chest, the sweep of loin, the breadth of paw, the mar of arm and thigh; and if you have an eye for form, look at the absolute majesty of his attitude at this moment. Majesty is the only word for it. If he were six feet high, instead of twenty-three Inches, with what animal on earth could you oompare him P la it not ajoy to see such • thing alive ? It is to me, at least.

YOUNG LADIES.—One of the great social Male of this age is admitted to be the reluctance of oar young men to early marriegsa ; they won't marry now we are told, as they need to do, and ought to do, on 3001 a year. Depend upon it, in many and many a case it is not the odd hundred or two that is wanting—it's the attraction. We have lost that joyous and familiar intercourse between neighbours' fiunilles, where young people's individualities had ipso* and opportunity to develop themselves, and heart met heart. Oar modish Cupid her over-strung his bow—hia arrow* don't hit home. Young ladies hideaway the key of their hearts so carefully, that nobody thinks it worth looking for.

Good Friday being a Jose holiday, we have no report to make under this head. It transpired officially yesterday afternoon that the tenders sent in for the Indian Loan had been accepted to the extent of 4 ,800,0001., or within 200,0001. of the entire amount. The East India Company's minimum price was 97 per cent., and the 4,800,0001. is almost entirely taken up between that figure and 991, principally, it is believed, between 97 and 981. In a few instances par is said to have been bid, and some rare cases are mentioned in which sanguine individuals are content to take the new debentures even at 102 per cent. Upon the announcement of the result the mem- berg of the Stock Exchange at once com menced to deal in the new security, which, u a matter of course, will be immediately admitted to the privilege of official quotation. Transactions took place at 98 and 981, and the price at the close of the house wss 971 to 981. In the course of the afternoon a number of members of the Stock Ex change formed a list, and transmitted to the India house an offer to take the balance of 200,0001. at the Company's minimum price of 97. This offer the East India Company declined. It was understood last evening, however, that the sum in question has been adjudicated; even in the absence of offers for it, the East India Company would have been able to sell it in the market, the more especially as the loan is at a premium. The grand fact is thus arrived at that the Indian loan of five millions is completed. The average price obtained by the East India Company may not be altogether unsatisfactory to them, but the experience now gained may be of considerable value in any future operation of a similar character. The plan pursued in the present instance of refusing to entertain applications from small subscribers will probably be eschewed. Had the loan been thrown entirely open to subscribers of any sum from 1001. upwards, it is believed that the East India Company might have publicly fixed the price of the new issue at par, and have got the list filled up in a couple of days. The first instalment of 20 per cent., or nearly one million, falls payable on the Indian loan on Thursday next, the Bth inst. The demand for money yesterday in all quarters, in cluding the Bank of England, was more active than for some time past, but the rates remain u before. The demand is explained by the circumstance that it was requisite to provide to-day for the bills falling due on the three following days. The Bank of Holland has reduced its rate of dis count from 4 to 31 per cent. It is officially announced that the Stock Exchange will be closed to-morrow. The day will be generally observed as a holiday throughout the City. The shipments of specie to the East continue to decline. The total remittances by the Colombo, which will leave Southampton for Alexandria on the 4th inst., are only 60,7301., of which 3,7211. is gold, and 47,0091. silver. The particulars are as follows, viz : For Alexandria, in gold coin, 2.7001.; for Ceylon, gold, 7201.; for Madras, gold, 3011.; for Calcutta, silver, 20,2001.; for Hong Kong, silver, 11,9691.; for Shanghai, silver, 10,4001.; and for Manilla, silver, 4,440!. The specie shipped for the West Indies by the steamer Parana is only 6,620!. The foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon were firm. The principal feature was the freedom with which bills on Holland were offered, leading to the establishment of a somewhat higher quotation. As re gards other places, there was not much disposition to do business. Bills on Vienna and Tneste were quoted a trifle higher, and three months paper on Paris somewhat lower.

The fillowing particulars are from the Sydney Empire and from the Sydney Herald, of Feb. 10 : "Considerable excitement IWII.I causal by the amval, on the llth January, of the American whale ship Junior, of New Belford, in charge of her first officer, who reported that a mutiny had broken out on board the vessel on Christmas Day, which had resulted in the murder of the captain and the third mate, and the desertion of the ship by the mutineers. The information received was enbetantially as follows —On the night of the 25th, the ship at that time being hove to on whaling ground a few dare sail from this coast, everything appeared as usual; the captain arid officers were all in their berths when the cabin wee attacked. The captain was fired at by Cyrus Plumer, one of the boatstrerers, with a whale gun loaded with three balls, which passed under his ribs and entered the side of the ship, after which Pliuuer seized the captain by the hair of the head and cut him several times with a hatchet, until he fell on the floor. The first officer was at the erne time shot by John Hall, another of the crew, but managed to escape into the lower hold, end to conceal himself for five days, where, deprived of food, and suffering from a wound in the shoulder, his sufferings were fearful. The third mate was at the same time stabbed by one Cornelius Burns, and the second mate wounded by Richard Cribs, who fi red at him with a pocket pistol. After this the muti neers took possession of the ship with the intention of taking her some distant port and selling her, but were unable to du so from their ignorance of navigation. On the fifth day after the mutiny, the retreat of the first officer was discovered, and his life, although in danger from the violence of Cartha, who appears to have entniained a bitter enmity sgainst him for previous ill-treatment, was spared on condition that he would take the ship into the Bay of Islands, New Zealand. It appears that they made land on the Ist January, up to which time the vessel was in the poesession of the despera does, the second officer being in irons, and the first officer under the strict surveillance of his captors, who paraded the deck with arms in their hands, Plumer at their head, and forced a compliance with their orders from the rest of the crew. The gang now came to the resolution of abaraioning the vessel. Previous to this, the following statement wee uttered in the log-book, and signed by the five principal actors in the tragedy : • Ship Junior, N. Bedford, Massachusetts, U.S., " ' Friday, December 25, 1857. " ' Latitude 37 degrees 68 minutes South, longitude 66 degree 67 mantes Ear. " This is to certify that we, Cyrus Palmer, John Hall, Richard Cartha, Cornelius Burns, and William Herbert did, on the night of the 25th of December last, take the ship Junior, and that all others in the ship are quite innocent of the deed. The captain and third mats were killed, and the second mate was wounded and taken prisoner at the time. The mate was wounded in the shoulder with balls from a whaling gun, and at the time we fired we set his bed on fire, and he was obliged, for fear of suffocation, to take the lower hold, where he remained until Wednesday fibroma. We could not find hint before, but we undertook a strict search and found him there. We promised him his lih and the ship, if he would come out and surrender without any trouble, and AO be came out. Since he has been in the ship be has been a good officer, and has kept his place. We agreed to leave him the greater part of the crew, and we have put him under oath not to attempt to follow us, but to go straight away and not molest us. We shall watch around here for sometime and if he attempts to follow us or stay around here, we ' shall core on board sad sink the ship. If we had not round Mr. Nelson the ship would have been lost. We have taken two boats and ten men, and everything that we wanted. We did not put Mr. Nelson in Irons on amount of his being wounded, but we kept a strict watch over him all the time. We particularly wish to may that all others in the ship but we five aforesaid men are quite innocent of any part to the affair.

They left the ship in the vicinity of Caps Howe in two whale-hosts, taking with them everything of mine which they could lay their hands upon. They attempted to pene trate the interior from Ninety-mile beech, but found it more difficult than they expected, as this is a pert where, from • soarcity of water, even the aboriginies field it scarcely possible to travel. Six of them, how ever, forming the crew of one host, have persevere d in the attempt, and it is thought most likely they have perished in it. If not, they can scarcely escape capture. The other four w®t to Twofold Bay, where they gave themselves out as Americans on a voyage from Melbourne to Sydney. But the singularity of such a voyage being taken in a whale boat, their arms and the nature and value of the property they had with them, excited suspicions. A force was gathered together, and they wen ,treated ; but al there was no tang ible evidence against them they were discherged again, although the boat was det ained. They made themselves however, as far as outward appearances went, pretty comfortable, wearing fine clothes and living a reckless life. Plimer, who called himself Captain Wilson, became quite • ladles' man, and was even, it is sold, upon the eve of mar ridge when he was arrested. When the men left the ship they imposed an oath upon the chief mate to take the 'hip on to New Zealand. Had he done this they would have had a considerable time before them to provide for their own safety. Bat of course he regarded the oath thus forced upon him se imposing no moral obligation, and he determined upon mak ing towards the nearest port at which he could get assistance for the ship, and invoke the arm of justice to pursue the mutineers. Ile at first shaped his course towards Hobart Town, but meeting with an intercelonial trader, he was advised to bear op for Sydney, end did so. The excite ment here on hearing of Ibis mutiny, as well as the public sympathy with its victims, was very great. Soon afterward, word was brought of some of the men having been seen at Gabo Wand, and the steamer Ills warm was at once despatched in search of them, with in armed party of police. The p Amer followed the men to Twofold ßay, but ere her arrival an account of the mutiny bed been received through another channel, and the local authorities had secured three of them. The fourth (Cartha) escaped into the bush, but he has since been captured. This was apparently the meet desperate man of the party. After his apprehension be managed to conceal a small tile from the searching eyes of the police, and had nearly severed his irons ere this was discovered. " As the four men now to custody are American subjects, it has been questioned whether they be considered amenable to MIT laws, or whether the Consul for the United States will demand them from our authorities and send them with • copy of the depositions taken here to their own country Ice trial. In the latter event the case will be resumed next week by the examination of several fresh witnesses from the ship's cowpony, in order to elicit every winkle of evidence bearing upon the affair. Pending this decision, the investi gation is adjourned ant il Monday next. "The following is a description of the prisoners at prevent in custody here :—Plumer, the sllcxed ringleader of the party, is a stout well-favoured man, with rather an intelli gent look, and appears to be about thirty years of age.

The funds have been for tome days checked by a fear that the Indian loan would not be wholly taken up. Now that the uncertainty in this respect has been satisfactorily solved, the market exhibits no improvement. In the morning a recovery of about I per cent. was temporarily attained, but the closing quotations were the same as those of yesterday. The fall on the Paris Bourse, where the settlement is in progress, exercised a prejudicial influence. With two or three holidays in prospect, speculators evinced little disposition to operate. Console, which closed yesterday at 961, " sellers," for money and the Bth of April, opened this morning at 961 to 97, advanced to 97, "buyers," and closed at 96; to 1.
