Madame Grist, it appears, has at length resolved to take her final leave of the stage. The public has heard so much fur some years past of this intention, which the illustrious prima donna has been several times apparently on the point of fulfilling, that people have begun to regard her anuouuosinenta of "farewell performance" as being little more than lacuna de porter, far from indicative of any 110liOLLII or fixed design. Now, however, the case is different Madame Grisi's determination has been intimated in terms so specific and positive, that it ia no longer possible to doubt her being entirely in cattiest. The Who( the theatre, after announcing that " during the present season Madame Giulia Oriel will make her last appearances before an English audience," go on to say, "The final performances of Madame Crisi will be limited to eight in number, and these will embrace those characters for which she has been the must celebrated. Madame (Irbil will sing in the opera of Norma once, Lmerezia Borgia once, Otello once, Don Gioranni twice, IlTrovatore once, and in Lea Huguniotstwice. These eight being nostpositirely Madame Grisi'sfarewell perforrnaness, and the last wady'', on which sheardlerer appear on the Wage in England." We do not believe that any significance is to be attached to the appa rently qualifying phrase, "in England." We believe that Gras nitirsawst from the stage will now be complete and &hesitate. If she withdraws from the stage in England, which has been the ehist wee° of her &Antis) career and trininphs, and where she is best known and most valued, in what other country could she possibly find an inducement to remain upon it The first of these farewell performances took place on Saturday night. We have seen Grisi io Norma once more, and we firmly believe that we have seen her, for the bat time, in the character which will for ever be associated with her name. Bellini's master work will be performed for many years to come, and his grandest of heroines will sp. pear in the forms and lineaments of many representatives yet unknown. But to the present generation there will be but one Norma—she who has so often stood before us in the likeness of Giulia Grist Nay, the association will en dure long after the prong generation has passed away. To our ehildreu's children Grisi will still be the Norma, as Saddens is still the Lady Macbeth, of the tragic stage. In sow dieappearing from the public gene, the image still re mains before our " mind's eye" in all its grandeur and beauty, uninjured by the marks of decay which its conti nued bodily presentment would ere long imprem upon it. In bringing ber artistic life to a close now, Grig (in the words of Burns) will " Fall in the blaze of her fame." Her setting will be worthy of her whole bright and glorious 004114 The theatre. on Saturday night, presented a scene worthy of as occasion so interesting sod memorable. The house was crowded to excess, sod the boxes and stalls contained a host of persons distioguisked is fashionable and mivital society. It would be idle to ester into any description of a porfonnance so well known to everybody who knows anything about the opera doge. It is 'offload to say that °dal seemed to be is the best ponsible health and spirits, acted with the truth, pathos, and simplicity which constitute her most resistless charm, sod wing is many respects, as she alone can sing —with all the grace, sweetness, end pas. biocide expression of her brightest days. Nothing could be more enthusiastic than her reception. During the principal scenes the house rang with applause, and the curtain fell amid the acclamations of the whole audience. In the performance of the other parts there was nothing mow or remarkable, aave Madame 'llberini's penonatioa of Ada m, which was very pleads. and satisfactory. TUE Leann McAIcAL FESTIVAL, 1861.—0 n faraday last, • special meeting of the Festival General Committee warn held at the Town-hall (the mayor presid ing), for the purpose of considering the propniaty of poniog the sosemi loads Musical Fmtival, which had Dean ed to tike pima le September mit. After consider able uueassioqthe following freelance was adopted weasi am* :—"Thst, considering all the circumstances and ad talkies animal.% the ormonsation of the arraugeheute foi the Maned Festival, and the doubts entertained of its rue cam, it I. desirable that no totival be this year held ; that this committee be adjourned sine die : that the secretanes be requested to obtain an account of the debts and liabi. lithe already incurred ; that in the meantime the three gen tlemen who have heretofore had the charge of the hooks and documents misting to the festival be requested to continua to hold them on the same terms as heretofore; and that the mayor be requested to convene a meeting when he shall, consider it proper to do so." DRAMA. ST. JAIIEWS. On Saturday night Mr. Alfred Wigan's first sea son at this theatre was brought to a conclusion, and after the curtain fell on the Strap of Paper the manager ad. sauced and addressed the audience as follows : Ladies and Gentlemen—l cheerfully accept the modern mieboan, that the manager of a theatre should, on the last eight of has season, says few words of grateful recognition of the past, and admit his patrons into his confidence as to hopeful expectations of the future. In taking the St. James's Theatre, I would not disguise from myself that I was experimenting with a property the fortunes of which had not hitherto been prosperous, but I remembered the dismal forebodings that attended my first venture in manage. meat ; I remembered in what a proud and firm position your support had enabled me to establish my first theatre ; and I was not dismayed by the difficulties that surrounded this ray second venture. 'The but time I lied the honour of addreariag you from a stage of my own, audio my own porno, it was with mixed feelings of pride in my position, and of pun that ill ness compelled me to retire, perhaps for ever, from the placid tank of contributing to your amusement. and to sever our coonexiun in the full tide of success. But it is with unmixed pleasure I appear before Joe this evening. At the beginning of the season my own health, and that of soy active, indeed, I may may, my indefatigable partner in all respects, scarcely seemed to promise the energy Ade 9uate to such an enterprise, and on that account, our effort bee been throughout a severe and anxious struggle. But we have been sustained and cheered by the hearty support of the public, and I am sore I shall give no public offence if I add of a large circle of private friends.

THE CRYSTAL PALACE The summer campaign commenced on Saturday I Let at the Crystal Palace most appropriately with a Bower show. The spring bad been cold, backward, nipping, but nc matter, difficulties are thiogs to be overcome, and the difficulties of the spring had only stimulated our florists to fresh exertion. The display was not perhaps so abundant as we have witnessed it un former occasions, but the quality wee superb, awl the arrangement such as to bring out in at tractive relief all the peculiar capabilities of the place. TLe statues with which the Palace is so populous wire on this occasion brought into requisition, and tastefully set amid the fruit and flowers. We caanot say whether among the white effigies there was either a correct Pomona or a veritable Flora, but there were what did quite as well. They looked very beautiful amid the green leaves and many-tinted flowers, and nobody, u faro we could perceive, bad come to the show with his Lempriire under his arm. The company was exceedingly numerous, and, thanks to the amplifications of the modern toilette, sometimes rather obstructive. The most beautiful specimens attracted the largest groups of ladies, and, wherever such au assemblage took place. any idea of free traasit fur anybody else was entirely out of the quer tiro). Some sumptuary law must certainly be made for Bower-show days, or else the calceolarias and the cinerurim will only " waste their sweetness on the desert air" in ea far as uocriuolinel critic., are con woad. Of the show itself, when we could get a peep at it, we may pronounce the roses to he magoneent. Mr. Lane's prise pot could not be exceeded in size, colour, number of buds, or fragrance. The judges had only anticipated the verdict of the public in giving this beautiful specimen the place of honour. We have seen more abundance, brighter lustre, acd greater variety amongst the azaleas at former shows, but then there we, the hard spring and the cutting winds, both sworn enemies to those delicate exotica. The , mime observations will apply to the pelargoniums, which also bad evidently gone through a crisis, but they survived wonderfully, and looked very beautiful in their delicately tinted clusters. Orchids were abundant and various, and amongst them were some rarities which attracted the particular notice of the connoisseur. Of the fruits we can speak in terms of unqualified praMe, One diah of strawberries exhibited by Mr. Smith, of Twick enham, were a feast for an emperor, and Mr. Hill's grapes, from Keels-hall, Staffordshire, might be set beside them without the slightest impropriety. Amongst the vegebtbles were some gigantic cucumbers, which called expressively for salmon to be eaten with, and the humbler accessories of the dinner table were most efficiently represented. The inspectioe was made to the inspiring strains of the bead of the Coldstream Guards, altern►ted with the music of the Palace orchestra, and the company seemed to experience only one drawback to complete enjoyment, namely, the difficulty of getting near enough to the most attractive fruit or Bowen for minute examination. The general arrangements of the palace continue to im. prove. The Norwood entrance, at which the happy people who possess equipages, and who therefore avoid the perils of the rail and the labours of the interminable flights of steps, net down, has been tastefully renovated, and sow presents an elegant sail impreing vestibule. The awful looking mystery of beams and crass•beams which eupport the Handel orchestra has been covered over, and the screen is classically decorated, so that the company, when passing through the turnstiles, find themselves surrounded by the busts of the eminent men of all carioca. All these improvements will be no doubt appreciated by the Whiteuntide and summer visitors, for whom, however, much more attractive novelties are also in preparation. The Christy Minstrels are engaged, as also the Swiss female singers ; and there is to be, in addition, abundance of ballooning, archery, rifle practice, boat racing, and the velocipede. For next mouth we are to have the wonderful Blondin, who on the let of June is to repeat those extraordi nary performances on the tight rope which so astonished the Americans, and &Wafted the special notice at the Priam of Wales when his Royal Highness visited Niagara. Like all the prodigies who come from that aide of the water, X Blondio has sent on his biography is advance, and trash we learn that this gnat proficient In an art In which we appro. heal he will have few imitators, was born in the Pas de Calais, in the year 1824, and that be was posted in the play bills as a "Little wonder " of gymnastics long before he left Frame. On landing in America he made Niagara his own, and by his dexterity and courage in croseng the dread abyss acquired, ae he modestly tells us, the various titles of " King of the tight rope," " Lord of the hempen realm," and " Em peror of all Manilla," all of which he intends to justify and maintain at the Crystal Palace on the let of June next. He is, we believe, apart from all Transatlantic exaggeration, a man of extraordinary courage and agility, not only on the rope, bat on terra firma, and will, we have no doubt, on his arrival in England receive that enthusiastic welcome which we never refuse to "pluck," in whatever form It may be ex. hibited. THE CHUNONJIATE QUESTION IN many. LEMONS. At the weekly meeting of the Representative Council of Marylebone, held at the Court-bouse, on Satur day, Mr. Churchwarden FILIIIR in the chair, Mr. GRILINWELL, the vestry clerk, brought up and read the following petition to both house, of parliament ou the subject of the total abolition of church rates, founded on the resolution adopted on the previous Saturday, after • debate extending over four sittings, by. • large majority : "To the right hon. the lords spiritual and tempund of Great Britsiu and Ireland in parliament assembled. The humble petition of the vestry of St. Marylebone showeth : That the perish church and certain district churches and chapels are placed under the government and control of this vestry, and your petitioners annually make and ley y a rate in pursuance of local acts of parliament upon all the inhabitants of the parish, which is appliedin pursuance of the provisions of such acts. That since the year Itll upwards of :173,0001. has been raised in this parish by means of the abovemen tioned rate, the annual amount levied at the present time being about 3,5001. That the population of the parish amounts to upwards of 160,000 persons, and the churches benefited by the rates accommodate only a very small pro portion of that number. That the impost of church rates is not only burdensome upon thou dissenting from the doctrines of the Church of England, but also upon church men who no longer find accommodation in those churches towards which they are called upon to contribute. Your petitioners therefore humbly pray your right honourable house that a bill for the total abolition of church rates may be passed into a law. And your petitioners will ever pray, dr." Xt. NICHUL moved that this petition he adosed, and that ft be pa-emoted to the House of Louis by Lard Lisa. over, aed to the Commons by Lord Fermoy, and that in the latter house Mr. Harvey Lewis, the other member for ig should rep to uted support the ems. arbarararr% be seconded the resolution. Mr. Witionno had no objection to the petition, but he thought it perfectly useless to present it to the House of Lon* as he had no belief that that body would ever con sent to the abolition of church rates :—indeed, he had so opinion of the House of Lords. (Laughter.) Mr. AMMAN entinll7 differed with Mr. Wingfield as to the effect of such petitions in the House of Lords. They were a body as sineenblit, and he believed ea susceptible to public opinion u any other, and • little pushing them foe. ward would no doubt do good.

There was much apprehension felt by the council and others concerned in this great work by the interference of the district surveyor, Professor Donaldson, who pointed out that the buildiug contravened in every respect the pro visions of the Building Act, which provides, and very pro peeiy, in ordinary cases, that no building shall be con structed beyond • certain extent (216,000 cubic feet) without party wells and iron doors. Of course, if this ob jection were valid, there was an sod to this building until I an act of parliament could be obtained to get over the diffi culty. Under the circumstances, an appeal was made to the Metropolitan Board of Works, who peones, a certain ' control over the district surveyors, and are • court of appeal in all cases arising under that most ill-penned law, the Building Act. In truth, much of the illileserred odium to which this board is subjected arises from this power of appeal, which brings before the board all ques tions of verandahs, projections, shop fronts, kc., which used formerly to be referred to the magistrates. The board caneot examine on oath, and have but little power of en- forcing their decisions. These matters will be, perhaps, cured when the Metropolitan Amendment Bill becomes law. In the case, however, of the Exhibition building, the board were, fortunately, not so powerless. The council memo rialised the board on Wednesday, who immediately directed their architect, Mr. Vulliamy, to examine the plans, and, with their solicitor, Mr. Smith, to advise them. Mr. Vul homy immediately reported that it appeared to them that the building might be considered a temporary structure , by which the present difficulty, and the necessity of divisious by enormous party walls, might be avoided, the only re maining control being, that the district surveyor would be left to see that the other important part of hb duty, vls.; the stability and security of the building for eke public, were satisfactorily carried out. The Metropolitan Board, at their meeting on 'Friday, which was made special for the purpose, unanimously adopted this view, and authorised the building to proceed, and directed their architect to sign the drawings forthwith. Thus this difficulty, which once seemed so threatening, was got over by the promptitude of the Metropolitan Board, after • delay of little more than two days.-014erver. FRANCE. (nor ova own PARIS, SATUSDAT Erato. The election of a Grand Master for the Free =eons of France, which comes off to-morrow, has suddenly mistimed the proportions of an affaire. A few weeks ago no one would have doubted that Prince Murat, who was elected in 1854 for the usual term of seven years, would be re-elected as a matter of course. I mentioned, however, some few days since that there was a probability of his being thrown out in eousequence of the disapproval of the craft in general of his pretensions to the throne of Naples, and of his vote in the Senate against Prince Napoleon on the question of the temporal power. The Sigcle to-day contains the following remarkable attack, signed by M. Louis Jourdain, upon the would be King of Naples : I have not the honour to be • Freemason ; I never set foot, even as • visitor, in a lodge, and never attended a file of adoption • but from all that has been written on Free masonry, and from all that has been said to me by excellent people, 1 know that the object of this vast association is no. only the mutual relief of its members, but the prologs. tion of the principles of liberty, toleration, sound morality, and proems, which form the bases of modern society. Freemasonry, in conformity with those principles, is con stituted democratically ; it is the people who elect their chiefs and their great dignitaries, and the Grand Master himself is thous by the free suffrages of hie brothers. This is more than milkiest Measure to Free memory the sympathies of all who are not connected with Roman compregations. The manner in which Prince Lucien Murat has exercised his pow er has not been in harmony with the principles of the isstitution, and that is why the elections of the 20th May appear likely not to be favourable to him. I have now before mo decrees of the Grand Muter hearieg the seal of his arms, conetersigeed by • grand °Meer of the order, and they give me an idea of what the Prince would be if ever the Neapolitans should confer on him the Grand Mastership of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. It is known that when the discussion took place in the Senate on the question of the temporal power of the Papacy, Prime Murat showed himself favourable, not his speech—for he is no speaker but by vote, to the cause which his cousin Prince Napoleon so elo quently combated. The Freemasons were profoundly annoyed at that vote, which placed the Grand Master in direct opposition to th e principles of the order. A masonic journal, L'laitiatioa, gave expression to their feelings. But it appears that the Prince does not like criticism, for he Immediately issued a decree thus conceived : " We, Prince Lucien Murat, Grand Muter of the Masonic Order in France ; seeing an article which has just been published, he. • considering, to ; have decreed, and do hereby decree, what follows :—Art. 1. The journal L'lnitiation is provisionally suspended. Art. 2. Brother Riche Garden, who signed the article, Venerable of the lodge, the Temple den Families, is provisionally suspeuded. A. 3. Our special representative, grand officer, &c., is charged with the notification and execution of the present decree. (The Prisee's seal.) L. MURAT." Another decree followed, suspending the lodge of which the writer of thearticle was the Venerable. Undoubtedly, Movesigneur, your highness acta energetically. What, for • poor little newspaper article which ruffled your self-love, you not only suspend i a o ieurnal, but the writer of the ar ticle, and an entire e as well. Fora trifle more you would have suspended reetnasoury altogether, and that would not, perhaps, have caused displeasure at Rome. One can understand that such proceedings, and many others which I will not relate here, have rendered this terrible Grand Master somewhat unpopular among the Freemasons. It is • matter of necessity for French Freemasons, who, like other citizens, have no rights whatever except by the toleration of the Emperor, to choose 'rand master who shall not.bo displeasing to his Majesty. If they were to do otherwise the drawn sword of their " tylers" would be found insufficient to protect any lodge against the intrusion of gen darmes. In all probability Prince Napoleon will be elected. The appeal of Mrs. Paterson and her son in the grest case of " Paterson v. Bonaparte" is set down for bearing before M. President Devienne and the First Chamber of the Imperial Court for June 3. The Bourse was again weak. The reduction an nounoed in the Munittur of It per cent. upon the I interest of Treasury bonds was counterbalanced by the issue by the Bank of France of 230 millions of railway obligations. Thu Route, after insignificant fluctuations, closed at 69.25 and 69.40, with a fall of 10e. and Sc. Mobilior fell 1.25. In railways there was little change, but three or four lines were from 1.25 to 2.50 lower. The latest letters from St. Petersburg give a black account of affairs in the Russian empire. It is said that no less than 27 "governments" are in a state of insurrection, on account of disputes about the emancipation of the serfs. M. Thiers means to divide his 20,000 f. prize— supposing it to be confirmed to him by the vote of a general meeting of the Institute—among four authors ; but whether he means to choose them himself, or to constitute some sort of tribunal foe their selection, does not yet appear. Queen Christina is to dine at the Tuileries to morrow, and in the evening Alexandre Dumas's comedy of Un Manage ante Louis XV. will be played before the court. To-morrow (Whit-Sunday) a " Marionettes" Theatre, which has obtained permission to fix itself in the Tuileries gardens, under the chestnut treeeon the Rue de Rivoli side, will be opened for the first time. EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY. The terms on which the long-pending differences between this company and the Eastern Union and Norfolk have at length been adjusted are u follows :-1. The dia. puled questions in the Chancery suit and on the revenue accounts are to be settled by an allowance of 2,008/. per annum each to the Norfolk and Eastern Union from Jan. 1, 1864, each party to pay their own costs. 2. The joist com mittee are forthwith to eater upon their duties, as con templated under the agreement of 1864, without prejudice, umiak; the settlement of the final amalgamation. 3. The expenditure on new works on which interest has been charged to the joint revenue account is to be immediately settled by Mr. Bruit and Mr. Sinclair. 4. The Epping, °agar, and Dwiinow line is to be made by the asso ciated companies, and the Eastern Counties is imme diately to deposit flve.sevenths of the money required. The Bishop's S. tortford and Braintree and the Ware and Buntingford lines are to be adopted by the milted companies to the extent of the obligations in respect of which the Eastern °Manila is already responsible. 6. The rolling stock is to become the property of the associated companies, exclusive of the stock now belonging to the Eastern Counties for working foreign lieu, on which interest at 4 per seat, is to be allowed to the Listen. Counties before diviskia of gross receipts, and the foreign lines are to be worked on account of the associated companies. & The Board of Trade, or a parliamentary committee, are to determine the ooen portios, if any, to be paid to the Norfolk and Eastern Union, in addition to their ono-seventh of the net receipts, provided forby the agretenent of 1854,f0r giviag up the right of a dud charge of 46 per cut. in lieu of future actual working expenses. 7. The proportion of directors to be nominated tor the Norfolk and Eastern Union is to be de termined by the Board of Trade. 8. Disputes as to the construction of these terms are to be left to the arbitration of • barrister, to be nominated by the Solicitor-General. The agreement, it maybe iatereetisg to add, was negotiated by Mr. J. C. Cobbol4 M.P., and Mr. G. Jusselyn, on behalf of the Eastern Union, and Mr. G. P. Bidder, on the part of the Norfolk.

THE FORTHCOMINO TRINITY TREY.—OR Saturday the law offices were clossd for the holidays until Wednes day, when Trinity Term commences. The arrears are in considerable in the common law court., and in the coasts of equity there are now in reality, but some cases hays been set down fur hearing. In the Queen's Bench there are four rules in the new trial paper for judgment and 50 for amp meat. In the special paper there are two for judgment and 43 for argument, Insides which there are seven en larged rules. In the Common Pleas there are eight enlarged rules, 19 in the new trial paper, five matters standing for the decision of the court, and 15 demurrers entered. In the Exchequer there are eight errors and appeals, five rules in the peremptory paper, and 10 in the special for argument ; whilst of new trials there are five for judgment and 18 for argument. The courts will sit at 10 o'clock, as the judges will not breakfast with the Lard Chancellor. Ties CENRol.—M&Honurna.—The total popu lation et what is commonly understood by the word "Man chester," and which includes Salford as naturally a. London include Southwark, has not . yet been exactly ascertained. An approximate calculation gives 367,438 as the number of persons mow in the city of Manchester by itself, as against 316,1155 in 1851, showing an increase of 40,483. This in doles the nine townships of Manchester, Hulme, Chorl. ton.upon-Madlock, Ardwick, Cheatham, Newton, radford, Berwick, and Harpurhey, and is altogether exclusive of the borough of Salford. All the townships show an increase except that of Manchester, where there Ina been a decrease of Lira. This is accounted for by the migration of inha bitants to the suburbs, and the removal of cottages in the centre of the town to make room for warehouses, he. ; or in the course of street improvements. Tea CIIIBUM, NolimicH.—The result of the late enumeration of the people of Norwich, shows an lacrosse during the ten years 1851-1861 of 6,150, against an advance of 6,412 in the ten years preceding. Not the least interesting information gained from • study of the returns is the fact that there has been, with few exceptions, • steady emigration from the more c3mel7•packed parishes in the heart of the city to the subur ban districts, so that whilst the population of the former is diminishing, we find Thorpe increased by nearly 600, 81. Clement's Occluding New Cotton and Philadelphia) by more than 700, and Hingham by upwards of 6,ooo—the last named hamlet haring been in fact nearly doubled. The numbe. of inhabited houses which in 1841 was 14,900, has been increased to 17,100; the uninhabited houses which in 1841 were 339, are now 791 ; and the number of houses is the course of erection is about the same as before, 97 to 101. --- Tug POPCLATION OF LIVZILPOOL.—••• The results of the recent census in Liverpool were known ou Saturday, and by the kindness of the local superin tendent registrar we are enabled to present our readers with the following abstract of the Waste! tables :—Population Parish of Liverpool, 263,570 ; out townships, 174,170 ; the fluctuating population, those on board ships, Eris; in the streets, travelling, connected with the customs, lie., are, as is 1831, estimated at 8000—total 445.740.

Inha bited houses is 1851, 54,310 —in crease in 1861. 11,6161. These figures are mast satisfactory. A Cuntoarry or run CzNeva. —There is one pariah in England which has increased Its population during the last decennial period by no lees than 100 per cent. The parish of Al4lllllo°o, near Br ghtou, was the only parish that returned in the census of 1851 a single unit of popu lation. The pariah ie entirely agricultural. It was for cen turies without a house. There are, however, the ruins of a chinch, which are noticed by the travellers on the South Coast Railway. When the road from Brighton to Shore ham woe made a turnpike, it pleased the trustee, of the road to erect a toll tar in the pariah, and the toll-house of course had an occupant. Thus the parish became inhabited, and the eons= of 1851 gave the population as "1." The census of 1861 shows a population of the same parish of 2, an increase, as we have mid, of 100 per cent. The 'pike man las taken to himself a wife. 61111trTATTiiit07 CAPITAL.

It appears that the convict's wife was a most profligate and abandoned woman, and that in conseunence of gross prevarication he committed violence upon her which resulted in her death. He was guilty of murder in the eye of the law, but the facts of the case fairly lead to the inference that he did not contemplate the commiseion of that offence.

Yesterday's Moniker publishes the following cir cular, addressed by the Minister of the Interior to the Priffets : Park. May 13, 18431. Monsieur le Prefet—The judicial prosecution of a recent brochure has raised • question, to which I think It right to call your attention , It is asked, if persona banished or exiled from the territory, and consequently placed outside of the common law, and withdrawn by their very position from all judicial action, should be able to make use in Frame of the benefits of publicity by sheltering themselves behind • printer or bookseller. In the writing in question there was so decided an attack on our institutions, so manifest so incitement to hatred and contempt of the government, that the laudable eagerness of the magi trace to prosecute the seditious writing was com manded by the very nature of the case, and when once the seizure had taken place justice bail to take its course. But you know, M. le Prffet , the inconvenience of such prosecutions. n the one hand a writer, by the publication of many thousands of copies, may have every facility of casting insult and calumny on persons and things, whilst I on the other he is protected, he and hie, by the judicial seizure itself, spinet all reply and all recrimination ; and in this way a representative of the policy of 1440 has been able to put to the conqueror of Polferino this strange question, „ What have you Ards ci Prancer However that may be, it is to be presumed that yireten. sloes so clearly avowed will be reproduced afresh ; that the example set will be followed, and that the government which has drawn France from the abyss will find itself again exposed to the insults of those very persons who let her fall into it. It has already come to my knowledge that writings of the saute kind are being prepared at this very moment ; that, being better advised, the instigators or authors of those little maureuvres flatter themselves that they will escape, even in the person of the printers, from the rigour of justice by artifices of editing and publication, thus hoping through the fissures of the IJw, to penetrate with impunity to the very heart of our institutions. But the government =not suffer the renewal of such scandals. As far as lam concerned, the more I strive to remain faithful to the liberal ideas of Nov. 24, by favour ing freedom of discussion, the more anxiously ought I to guard the state itself against the attacks of its enemies. I request you then to watch with care all attempts at publi cation that may be made in the name of persons banished or exiled from the territory. Of whatever nature those publications may be, under whatever form they may be produced—books, journals, brochures, it will be your duty to proceed on the spot to an administrative seizure, to refer to me immediatel , and await my instruetions.—Renajets The of the Interior, F.
