Account, Dec. l 93-1, PARIS CORRESPONDENCE. MONDAY. , The electoral excitement continues unabated, indeed it seems rather to increase. The names of rival candidates arc on every tongue; the list of meetings to come, and the reports of meetings that are past, fill every journal. In the midst of all this M. llenri Rochefort is the most prominent figure, and the unlucky mhitake cf the over-officious func tionary at Feignieres has suddenly raised him to a degree cf undeserved celebrity. I have no doubt that the Empe ror, if he followed his inclinations, would very readily commit that unhappy meddler to the durance vile he designed for M. Rochefort. At another time the liberality and model ation of the Emperor would have neutralised the effect of an arbitrary exercise of power. In the present state of suppressed excitement and growing disaffection to the powers that the people forget the sauf conduite in the sense that individual liberty is a very uncertain possession in Franco. M. Rochefort took part yesterday in a somewhat stormy meeting held in the Rue Jessaint. A speaker named Lhermina censured the conduct of the deputies in the month of June, when they should have instituted an in quiry and :assisted the prisoners arbitrarily detained. Since the prorogation they have failed to assert themselves, especially on the 26th. The commissary of police here put in his warning, but M. Simonin, of the Sidcle, protested against it on the ground of electoral law. M. Rochefort ascended the tribune in the midst of unbounded enthu siasm, and declared that, for his part, he fully accepted the: mandat imperatif, or the right of the electors to direct their represc ntaiives, end that ho should maintain a constant communication with his constituents. After this M. Lhermina again provoked an avertissement from tho watchful commissary, who seems to have been very sus picious of his company, by declaring that the police agents should have been prosecuted for their conduct in Juno. M. Rochefort, thereupon reminded the functionary that the facts alluded to had been judicially recognised, and added that he considered it was the duty of the depu ties to have presented themselves at the Chamber on tho 26th October. A speech was then made in support of M. Rochefort's candidature, and the speaker observed that they must wait till liberty opened the gates of Franco before recalling the other proscrits. Another speaker, having said that social reforms must be adjourned for political revolution, the Commissary dissolved the meeting, and t' a crowd poured into the street after the popular candidate, surrounding him, and even following his carriage with cries of " Vivo Rochefort." A meeting at Clichy on Sunday evening, at which M. Rochefort was again the central figure, came to an equally abrupt conclusion. The salle was thronged, and 1,000 or 1,100 persons tried vainly to get into the space of 500. It was thought desirable to have a reinforcement of sergents de-ville outside. The candidate was greeted with the utmost enthusiasm. During his address he declared he would be faithful to the charge committed to him, but that if the Corps Legislatif would not listen to him, if circumstances com pelled him to fulfil his office in the street, he hoped they would follow him where he directed them. To this appeal there was an energetic response of " Oui! " and up sprang the commissary of police, declaring that such words were an incitement to revolt, and proclaiming the dissolution of the meeting. This proceeding, as you may suppose, called forth the liveliest protests, but the crowds dispersed quietly, contenting themselves with accompanying M. Rochefort to his carriage. Meetings of more or less interest have been held in the other circumscriptions. At Belleville M.M. Gambetta and Louis Simonin have been the orators. In the Third Circumscription M. Layerrier6 has retired in favour of M. Creinieux. M. Emile de Girardin publishes an address to the electors of the First Circumscription in this day's Libertd, declaring in reference to various rumours con cerning him that there is only one event inwhich he would accept again the office of deputy, and that is when the unity of the college has replaced the parcelling out of electoral districts, suppressed the mendicancy of suffrages, and restored to the legislative office its dignity and its independence. There has been great talk of a Ministerial crisis taking place, and the Journal des Ddbats comments upon the sub ject, and says that the Minister of the Interior, who con ducted the last elections is to be dismisses. Should M. de Forcade la Roquette have a successor, he will doubtless seek to disembarrass himself of officious prefects and sub prefects. The King of Italy is said to be better, but yesterday the Paris journals seem to have given up all hope of his recovery. The Princess Clotilde left here the day after the departure of the Prince, in order to rejoin her husband and brother near her father. M. Eugene Forcade has added another to the list of departed literary celebrities. He was at ono time a writer in the Retue des Deux Mondes, and also editor of the Semaine FinancPre. He died at Billancourt, near Paris ; but for some months he had undergone medical treatment for mental alienation. The funeral takes place to-morrow, at eleven o'clock. The Temps refers to the late M. Forcade, and speaks in high terms of his talents and social qualities. It declares that he was a superior order of politician, and not merely a brilliant writer. Ho pos sessed the attributes of true Liberalism, tolerance, and a full appreciation of adverse opinions. The Temps does not think that M. Forcade had full scope for his abilities, and circumstances were not altogether favourable to him. Ho was at one time a contributor to its pages, and it cannot hope to find his equal in talent. The Libe, statesthat serious dissensions havo taken place in the Cabinet on the subject of the Commercial Treaty with England. The Prince do la Tour d'Auvergnc, who has never cared much for being in the Ministry, is very eager to resign his post, in order that he may escapo from the discussions for which he has no taste. A worknion'3 meeting was 1131 d at Lille on Sunday, which called for the renunciation of the Treaty of CoYn --•-- with England, and of all other analogous trcati , ...

The last ballot stood:—Johnsen 48, Etheridge 31, scattering 24. Mr Johnson wanted but 4 votes to elect him. The next day, to the surprise of. the country, which had considered his election sure, a trap was sprung on him and be was defeated, Henry Cooper of Davidson County toceiving 55 votes to Johnson's 51. The new Sena tor was born near Columbia, Tennessee, 45 years ago, one of many brothers, the father being a successful merchant; graduated at Jackson College, studied law, and commenced practice in Bedford county. When the war broke out he became a Unionist, left for Europe on the capture of Nash ville by General Buell, was appointed Circuit Judge of the State, resigned in 1867 for the chair of Law Professor in Lebanon Law School. Subsequently removing to Nash ville he was elected Senator to represent that district in the Legislature over W. L. Stone, the Stokes nominee and thou beat Andrew Johnson for the United States Senate. Judge Cooper was a violent opponent of the re strictive franchise measures passed by the Legislatures at 1865, 1866, and 1867, and, in common with his brother, Edmund Cooper, was known as a Conservative Union ist, is considered an able lawyer, and is a gentleman of high culture, possessing many eminent social qualities. It is said to have been discoveed that the newly-elected Senator from Virginia, Mr Johnston, as well as Mr. Gib son, one of the Representatives from that State, are still labouring under the disabilities imposed by the Fourteenth Amendment. The amendment was ratified after the pas sage of the Act by Congress relieving the disabilities of Messrs. Johnston and Gibson, and it is asserted the Act of Congress approved April 1, 1869, removing the dis abilities imposed by the Fourteenth Amendment, fails to embrace in its terms the cases of Messrs. Johnston and Gibson. On Tuesday, the 2d inst., Governors were elected in Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. In New York a Secretary of State and Comptroller, and in all, together with Now Jersey, Kansas, West Virginia, and Maryland, State Legislatures. In Massachusetts, a successor to Secretary Boutwell was elected for the Seventh Congressional District, George W. Brooks having been nominated by the Republicans. The elections passed off quietly. The Democrats were successful in Now York, returning Mr. Nelson as State Secretary over Gen. Sigel, and Mr. Allen as State Comptroller over Horace Greeley, and securing a majority in the Legislature. Maryland gave a majority of 25,000 to the Democrats, who were successful in every District. The same party car ried New Jersey, securing a majority in both the Houses of the Legislature. Massachusetts re-elected Mr. Claflin its Republican Governor by a majority of 10,000 over John Quincey Adams, the son of the late Minister to England. In Minnesota the Republicans elected Mr. Austin as Go vernor. In Wisconsin Lucian Fairchild, the Republican candidate, was elected Governor by a majority of 50,000. West Virginia also went Republican, a majority being secured in the Legislature. All this was anticipated, hence the result is scarcely news. There appears to have been a hard struggle inNe w Yerk, the first report being that the Republicans were successful in the Legislature. Addi tional returns of the election in lowa indicate a Republican majority of over 37,000. The National Executive Com mittee of the Union League had held a meeting in New York, at which arrangements were reported in reference to the political canvass in New York, Mississippi, and Texas. It is stated that movements were on foot for a re vival and reorganization of the Union League. We fear it is true that Mr. Johnston, the Senator-elect from Virginia, and Mr. Gibson, ono of the Representatives elect, are po litically disabled by the Fourteeth Amendment.

Ind as compared with the month ending the 10th of Oct., 1868, the above returns show a decrease of £513,060 in the circulation of notes in England, and a decrease of £296,976 in the circulation of the United Kingdom.

Louisville has been the scene of a great Com mercial Convention, and its neighbourhood, though in In diana across the river in Ohio, has illustrated the happy state of law and order which there prevails. A man named Spring stoor, with his brother, got into a difficulty with the two brothers Clark, about the settlement of an account. Both the Springstoors were killed, and the murderers walked away with the utmost indifference. Though the Vigilance Committee to which the Springstoors were supposed to bslong were out and armed, they never dreamt of interfer ing with so legitimate a mode of settling an account, but proceeded to the residence of Moss Rice, who had been warned to leave the neighbourhood, the time given him having then nearly expired. There they fired several shots, which made such an impression on Moss that he cleared out straight away, and the after proceedings showed him by the fate of another Rice that under the circumstances hurry was advisable ; the other Rice having paid no at tention to his warning, so he was found dead in the woods. Mr. Whitinghills and his son declined to act either with or against the committee, a proceeding so distasteful to that despotic body that both received an instant warning to quit. This state of affairs places the power of life and death, of banishment and surrender of property, in the hands of an irresponsible and unknown band, perhaps of ruffians, a system better calculated for border life than for the great and growing State of Indiana ; but to do In diana justice, we must say that Warwick county is very close to Kentucky. A letter from the attorneys of the shareholders in the Overend and Gurney Company yesterday, published in the Times, gives some idea of the expense in even the attempt to get justice in a case where the ruin has been enormous. They oppose Dr. Thom's application to throw the expense of the prosecution of the directors on the liquidator; for the reason that the shareholders bad already lost, through what they evidently consider such like foolish proceedings, one million and a quarter sterling, with an extra quarter of a million for interest. There never was a more hideous parody on justice and law; but this point should not be overlooked, that the quarrel which led to this loss was between the victims—the shareholders on one side and the creditors on the other. Dr. Thom's proceed ings are against the men through whose agency the state of affairs was brought about. Still, this letter shows with what impunity such ruin can be wrought. A case, how ever, is being heard, on which we therefore cannot com ment, against the managing directors of Barned's Banking Company, a failure •that caps that of Overend, Gurney, and Company. A correspondent informs us there is a stir, as we last week announced, by the Government clerks of Washington, for an increase of twenty per cent on their salaries, and strong efforts are being made to support the motion when brought up in Congreba. The clerks have got hold of what is alleged to be an ap plication from the Hon. E. B. Washburne, the Minister at Paris, to have his own pay, as well as that of the m tu bers of the Legation, increased. Mr. Washburne is wtil known as " The Treasury Watch-Dog," and many raiders in that direction when he was iu the Representatives were scared by his furious onslaught. Not only have the clerks now the advantage of having their old enemy out of the way, but they are preparing to use his own application against himself, that is if he ever made it. His Excellency ex-Governor Andrew G. Curtin has been given credit by many American papers for a knowledge of languages which perhaps he has not acquired, and, if not, would have no wish to receive the praise at the expense of another. A Mr. Curtin, of the American Le gation at St. Petersburg, did address the Huss banquet at Prague in the Bohemian and Russian languages, creating the greatest enthusiasm ; but it was not the Minister, but the late Secretary of Legation, Jeremiah Curtin, of Wis consin, who did so. , RDINARY SHARES AND STOCKS. ttailwa) p aid.
