TEE FRENCH REPUBLJC We have received the Paris journals of Saturday and yesterday. The PRINCE PRESIDENT left Nevers for Moulins on the 16th, at ten in the morning. At Villeneuve sur-Allier, where the Emperor erN APOLEON bade adieu to the officers of his guard in 1814, the Mayor, at the head of the municipal council, several functionaries, and a number of large landed proprietors, amongst whom was Count DES ROYS, Peer of France under the Monarchy of July, received the PRINCE at the en trance of the town, under a triumphal arch, bearing above the device in letters of gold—" Vive l'Empereur !" " Vive Napoleon II!" The population received the cortege with the loudest acclamations ;_ and after a short stay the PR INCE PRESIDENT proceeded on his way to Moulins. Moulins is a charming town situated on the banks of the Allier in the midst of a f er til e p l a i n . T he streets are wide and regular, and several public pro• menades are planted wirh trees, reminding one of the towns in the South of France. The PRINCE PRESIDENT arrived thereat two o'clock, and, notwithstanding the rain which fell, his entry was a complete triumph. An immense concourse of people from every part of the department of the Allier, and from the adjoining departments, greeted the PRINCE with the unanimous cry of " Vive l'Empe reur !" The PRINCE proceeded at once to the cathe dral, where he was received by the Bishop at the head of his clergy. Cries of " Vive l'Empereur !" did not cease being repeated during the filing-off of the National Guard and of the troops of the garrison. In all the villages between Nevers and Moulins, the PRINCE'S carriage was covered w ith fl owers ; triumphal arches were erected on his passage ; the enthusiasm of the population exceeds all that can be imagined. At Moulins the PRINCE visited the hospital, and every • where left marks of his munificence. He went in , 243 the evening to the ball given at the Hotel de Ville. dto He opened the ball with the Countess GUYOT, the 297 wife of the Prefect ; hi s v i s - a - v i s was th e P re f ect an d ,884 the wife of the Mayor of Moulins. The PRINCE 377 was greeted on his passage by the acclamations of an ,499 immense crowd. During the ball, the cry of " Vive 9d Napoleon !" and still more that of " Vive l'Empe reur !" burst out several times. The PRINCE with drew at ten o'clock, and was accompanied back to the prefecture by the same cries of enthusiasm. He • left the town at eight o'clock the following morning. 127 The last accounts of the PRINCE PRESIDENT left 181 him at St. Etienne on Saturday afternoon. His re -108 ception there was magnificent. The cries were " Vi ve Napoleon !" " Vive l'Empereur!" The Moniteur is / 61 filled with addresses presented to LOUIS NAPOLEON {69 in the course of his tour. A Lyons journal states that the PRINCE PRESIDENT eee .°2 will proceed from Valence to Avignon by wa t er . ,(9 The steam-boat company called the Parisiens have 131 received orders to prepare one of their boats for ,98 )er the 24th. !83 Another screw line-of-battle-ship was on Thursday 25 added to the French navy by the launch of the Jean Bart, of 100 guns, Lorient, whi c h went off with • the most perfect success, and amidst the enthusiastic shouts of thousands of spectators. In consequence of the new organisation of the Ministry of State, that department is divided into two services, the division of the Secretariat, and that of Palaces and Manufactures. At the head of the first is placed M. MONTULLE, who was previously sub director. M. VUHRER, who was chef de bureau of the direction of palaces and manufactures, is appointed chief of the new division of the same name. The Three per Cents. were quoted, at the Casino, at 78f. 250.

Dispatches from the Captain- General of Cuba, dated the 9th ult., stated that the most perfect tran quillity prevailed in that island. Y e ll ow f ever b a d manifested itself with considerable intensity, and a few cases of cholera had occurred. The Three per Cents. were done at 471 ; the New Three per Cents. at 24i ; the Debt of the first class at 121; and that of the second at 6i. BELGIUM. A dispatch from Brussels dated Saturday morning announces that, by royal decrees, the resignation of M. FEERE-ORBAN has been accepted, and M.

The Emperor of AUSTRIA was seized with indispo sition in the afternoon of the 11th, and compelled to take to his bed. But his MAJESTY'S physicians say that the indisposition is only slight, and that he will soon recover. It was caused, they say, by excess of labour. The Berlin journals publish a royal decree, having for its object the centralisation of power, and there. fore giving to the President of the Council of Mini sters the superior direction in all important affairs of every branch of the administration. No member of the Cabinet, except the Minister of War, is to be allowed to solicit a personal audience of the KING, without having apprised the President of the Council, who is to be present at the audience. SWEDEN. Letters from Stockholm of the 7th, in the Augsburg Gazette, give a few further particulars concerning the disturbances which had broken out there against the Jews. The Governor issued a proclamation on the 6th, containing a warning not to repeat the dis graceful scenes of the preceding day, but to no pur pose ; they were renewed in the evening, and the mob broke the windows of the Synagogue. The police at first behaved with great forbearance, and tried persuasion to make the people disperse; but it was soon found necessary to have recourse to more stringent measures, and twenty persons were arrested. A judicial inquiry is set on foot. The King and Queen of SWEDEN arrived at Lubeck on the 1 1 th, and were received and entertained at dinner by the authorities. Their MAJESTIES subse quently proceeded to Travemunde, where a house had been prepared for their reception. The town was illuminated. The KING and QUEEN passed the night there, and left the next morning on board a Swedish war steamer. DENMARK. The official journal of Copenhagen of the 13th contains a royal decree convoking the Diet for the 4th October. It also publishes a royal decree dated the Bth, by which an English company is authorised to form a railway from Rensburg in Holstein to Hu sum in Schleswig and from Husum to Tcenhing. The works are to be concluded in two years. The conces sion is made for 100 years, but is to be confirmed in every new reign. ITALY. The King of SARDINIA arrived on the 12th at Casale, in order to witness the great military ma nceu . ores to be executed before that newly-fortified place. The town was spontaneously illuminated. His MAJESTY received the authorities, whom he invited to his table. The Duchess of GENOA arrived on the following day, when the mzeeuvres commenced. A hostile army was supposed to attempt a surprise Upon the tete de pont on the other side of the Po, not know ing that Casale was well garrisoned ; but the attack was repelled. On the second day the operations were directed to a certain point of the river to prevent the enemy from crossing it. Tho manoeuvres are under the direction of the Duke of GENOA.

EGYPT M. ON BAY ALEXANDRIA, SEPT. 9 —His Highness the VICE^ ROY is now living► at his palace of Derr-el•.Beyda, on the Suez desert, whither he has recently repaired to avoid the dust and suffocating summer atmosphere of the capital. The tanzimat has been proclaimed in the Hall of Justice at the citadel, in virtue of the requirement of the Imperial firman. All the officers above the military rank of major, the ulemas and mufti, and the chief notables were assembled on the occasion. The ceremony was grave and solemn, and the Paula re - ceived the instrument with becoming deference. The tanzimat is therefore the law of the land. MAHOMED Au during his ambitious career had exhausted in wars and folly so large an amount of the blood and treasures of his country that the people had fallen into a state of heartless serfdom, and the pro ductive capabilities of the country were, if not retro gressing, at least stationary. ABBAS PACIIA saw this, and struck out a different policy. He lessened the demand on population by reducing as far as practicable the army, navy, and public works, and directed the whole energies of the country on agri culture. The result had been that, besides the in -1 crease of people, which is very considerable, cotton and corn increased in a still greater t atio, and the land was marching rapidly on in prosperity, The growth of cotton, which is the most important of our staples, bad increased from 700,000 canters (96tb.) to 1,000,000 within one single year ; and the quantity of corn sent to England alone in 1851 was 1 double the entire exports of this article five years before. The increase in the value of agricultural produce exported during the first year of the present VICEROY'S Government, as compared with that im mediately preceding it, amounted to no less than 64,137,658 piastres! the figures being 166,056,132 piastres, as compared with 230,193,690 piastres. The item of cotton showed an increase of 32,415,680 piastres, and corn 18,381,600 piastres. The relaxa tion also of the restrictive duties and traffic regula tions on interior products, such as ivory, gums, coffee, drugs, spices, and other articles peculiar to the re gions of the Nile, as well as those of Abyssinia and Arabia, tended to open a large source of employment calculated to stimulate enterprise and work important social good. As regards the railway, there can be no manner of doubt it deserves to be placed prominently forward among the evidences on record of the PACRA'S successful efforts to further the advancing development. At this juncture, when the people were relieved from an oppressive taxation, gaining confidence in the new government, and accumulating wealth (for in the year in question it is a notorious fact that 50,0001. to 60,0001. a week in English sovereigns, were paid by the merchants for private produce, and that this money was all carried into the interior or otherwise absorbed)—at this juncture Turkey prefers a demand (doubtless a just demand) for claims founded on the war in Syria, under AIEHEMED Ara, on her own part, and a series of sums (swelling the bill to millions sterling), for compensation to the family of the late VICEROY, for prejudice done, or as sumed to be done, to their patrimonial rights. Such demands even a flourishing exchequer could not withstand, particularly if we add the year's tri bute of 400,0001., and the estimated cost of the rail way, put down at 800,0001. more. To meet these, and afford ample indulgence to the agriculturists for the payment of their head•rents and taxes, it was suggested to the PACHA to open a Four per Cent. loan in England, but he at once refused his sanction to any such measure, even though he should be poli tically benefited from it. With a larg e an d grow i ng income, a little repose is all that is needed : and, unless other drags are again made upon her, two years will suffice to give Egypt and Annas PACHA another fair start on the highway of prosperity. THE CREMORNE BULL CASE AND THE JUDGMENT OF " MIDA S." In a place, not in Crete, but in Essex they say, New lite has been given to Heathen mythology, For Europa came down from the clouds t'otber day, To give us an instance of doubtful zoology. Her dear husband, Old Jove, who assisted her flight, Beheld with amaze, as she soared thro' the skies, That the bull which she rode on was dying of fright, And to Earth, with Europa, he instantly hies. In the name of Olympus, whence came this old bull? Do tell me, Europa? My sweetest! my bliss! Had you searched through the knackers, you never could cull Such a shocking bad bovine companion as this. Did he come from the Zodiac, tell me, I pray ? Was he fed upon air? or is fodder so dear? It can't be; friend Apollo has plenty of hay, To stand to his nags, every month in the year. No, no, my lov'd Hubby, Enropa .12 exclaimed, - was in Smilfel' 1 b oug h t hi m , co lank, thin, and bare, He was dying of phthisis, and should I b e bl am 'd If I took up the brute, for a mere " change of air." But he's dead ! !—here comes Midas; he'll kick up a row, Tho' a donkey himself, still he's full of compassion. 'Tis a hundred to one, for this son of a cow, If ho don't hold a court in right asinine fashion. Old Midas now opens the court, with great awe, And solemnity, fitting this doleful occasion, For the death of a bull he most clearly foresaw Could never admit of disguise or evasion. Stand forth Master Jove and Europa, bo cried, What say you to this most inhuman barbarity, In this high court of justice, o'er which 1 preside Though an ass, still /say it, this crime is a rarity. You both stand indicted for killing this bull, By kindness or torture, 'tie all one to me; And if you're found guilty, and I have " the pull," Won't you trip it to regions beyond the" Dead Sea?" Take care what you plead, then— take care what you say, For thousands, aye, millions, are opening their ears; And " the eyes of all Europe are on 113 to-day," To reprove with their hisses, or 'plaud withtheir cheers. Poor Europa and Jove, who ergstwltayn; Jove to n'danhdopsemd that the flaw il Hungtheirheads, pleaded guilty; Which his wife had committed, coerced or beguiled By himself as her lord, would find favour in law. Silence reign'd in the court; for the hour had begun When " the eyes of all Europe" were strained to behold As fantastical, singular, strange bit of fun As chronicles time out of mind have yet told. And now for the judgment—Hem! Old Midas began. Fe! fa! fum! " I smell blood"—'Tis a horrible case, " I'm the judg e an d t h e j ury " — sm oke that if y ou can, And the bull shall have law whilst I sit in this place. 'Tis a case which concerns both " the welfare and peace, " And the morals of the kingdom" (of bulls, pigs, and monkeys, Of widgeon and snipe, not forgetting the geese), And mayhap, my fraternal, intelligent donkeys. And there's one thing I've learn't since I came here below, ".That slaves in the Indies have long since been set fj ee"— " . I've been sohool'd in a pot. house" since a boy, that you know, And why shouldn't the bull, then, find friendship from me? SUCCESSFUL _________ TREATMENT OF CHOLERA. Now that the cholera is so rapidly extending over the continent of Europe, every fact connected with success ful mod es o f i ts treatment is extremely valuable. le, Germany and A ustr i a the hot-air bath has been called into requisition by some eminent medical gentleman when patients have become too weak for the administra tion of medicine internally, and in the majority of cases where this has been done it appears, according to the accounts published in the German newspapers, that a speedy recovery has followed, even notwithstanding symptoms of the worst character bad presented themselves, and threatened a fatal termination. Of course the air„ is previously impregnated with medicinal properties 61 sufficient strength to act powerfully on the 5 7 5. tpm.

DEATH OF THE CHANCELLOR OF THE UNIVERSITY. (From the Oxford Journal of Saturday.) Our readers will find in another column an account of the almost sudden death, on Tuesday last, of his Grace the Chancellor of this University. The intelli gence was received in Oxford early the next morning, the various bells tolled out their mournful notes at in tervals for some hours, and a general feeling of regret appeared to reign throughout the University and city. His Grace was elected Chancellor of the University in 1834, upon the death of Lord Grenville, and we under stand that a meeting of resident members of Convocation was held on Wednesday, in Oriel College, with refer ence to the election of a successor to his Grace. The names of the Earl of Derby, the Doke of Newcastle, and the Earl of Shaftesbury, were mentioned as likely to be brought forward. The election is vested in the members of Convocation. You both may be married, for aught ./ know or care, And Vulcan forged chains which till death you can't sunder; But, " according to Cocker," ev'ry two make a pair; To fine each of you, now, can be no legal blunder.

ALPHA. HENRY RUSSELL'S CONCERTS.—On Saturday nigh this popular favourite gave the last of his series of entertain ments at the Lyceum Theatre, after a short but successful career. The house was crowded to excess, and Mr. Russell, who more than equalled his former efforts, was frequently greeted with rounds of applause. The great attraction of the evening was the announcement previously made public that he intended to distribute four valuable prizes, in ob taining which every one who entered the theatre was to have an equal chance. The prizes consisted of a free passage for four individuals to America, Mr. Russell having promised that the whole proceeds of the theatre that evening should be devoted to defraying the expenses of their voyage to the Far West. Three of the successful numbers were found to be held by persons in the pit, and the remaining one to be in the possession of an inhabitant of the gallery, and the whole found to be in a humble position of life, and to be desirous of bettering their condition in the new world. Mr. Russell, we believe, intends to repeat his entertainments in a few days at Liverpool and Sheffield, and it is to be hoped he will meet with as much encouragement as he has received in the metropolis. WHOLESALE FRAUDS ON THE IPSWICH POST. OFFICE.—On Saturday William Collins (late chief clerk), Frederick Joseph Sheldrake, and Edward Channing Bartho lomew Brummitt, were finally examined on several charges of embezzling money, the property of her Majesty, before the Mayor of Ipswich and a bench of magistrates. It ap peared from the evidence of Mr. W. S. Fitch, the postmaster, that it was the duty of the prisoners to affix six postage stamps to all registered letters upon receiving the registra tion lee ; and for some time past it had been discovered by Mr. J. T. Gardner, a confidential clerk in the General Post office, that the Ipswich bag frequently contained letters bearing stamps that had been obliterated before they 7; ceived the obliterating stamp of the Ipswich Post-office.

COMPOSITORS' EMIGRATION SOCIETY.—A meeting of the composito/ s of London was held on Saturday evening, at the Red Lion Inn, Red Lion-court, for the purpose of organising a society for the promotion of emigration. The meeting was well attended, and the rules which had been previously framed by a committee, were amply discussed, and, after a few trifling modifications, cordially adopted. The object of this society is that of advancing sums of money without any charge for interest, to compositors desirous of emigrating. The minimum charge of membership was by the meeting fixed at 3d. per week, which it was calculated would establish a fund sufficiently large to enable the committees to carry into effect the laudable purposes of the society. A tanner, recently deceased, at Manchester, is said to have left a fortune of 250,0001., which he had accumu lated in that trade. , PRINCESS'S THEATRE. INDIA. 1 RAIL WA Y INTELLIGENCE.

We have had a delightful meeting after a most splendid journey ; an d h ere permit me to observe that I know of no pleasure equal to that of travelling in a broad•gauge carriage of the Great Western Railway. The great Dr. Johnson once said that of all the pleasures of life he knew none to compare with that of travelling in a post.chaise at the rate of ten miles an hour in the company of a pretty woman.—(Laughter.) Now if' he had enjoyed the opportunity of which we have this day availed ourselves, of travelling on the broad gauge at the rate of fifty miles an hour, in the company of seven pretty women--[the compartments of the broad guage carriages hold eight passengers]—it is not too much to say that he never would have sobered down to write his dictionary. It is a source of great gratification to contrast the prospects of the South Wales Company at this moment with what they were three years since. When I joined the company the notion of reaching this town by rail was considered to partake of the fabulous, and the achievement of such a task was looked upon as chimerical; and my colleagues in the direction, although they were most anxious to accomplish it, shook their heads, I assure you, very mournfully, whenever we spoke of the subject; but we persevered, and, as you see, success has happily attended our efforts. I speak the sentiments of my colleagues as well as my own when I say that this meeting compensates us for all the dfffieulties, discouragements, and annoyances we have experienced—(Loud cheers)—and a great fact is—as the clown says in the Christmas pantomime—" here we are."—(lmmense laughter, followed by loog-continued cheering.) The reality seems to me like a dream. To the young men present on this occasion I would recom mend that they should bear in mind the sentiment with which we were animated in prosecuting this great work —not to despair in times of difficulty, and to remember that when things are at the worst they sometimes mend.

The Hon. Gentleman then again thanked them for the reception which the Mayor and corporation of Carmarthen had given to himself and colleagues, and for the enthusiastic manner in which the toast had been re ceived, and resumed his seat amid loud cheering. Several other toasts followed, and the comp an y b ro k e up at six o'clo c k. At night there was a brilliant display of fireworks in the town. We have, as did the speakers at the public breakfast, called the journey from Swansea to Carmarthen the opening of this portion of the line, but we learn that the Government inspector has refused permission for the public opening, in consequence of some incom pleteness, as we are informed, ut the level crossing of the Llanelly line. It is supposed that this will delay the public opening for a week or ten days. It was stated that on t h e return journey last night a gentleman of the name of Williams tell from one of the carriages. At the time the express train left yesterday it was not ascertained whether ho had left or fallen from the train. The following are the gradients of the newly-opened portion of the line:—lmmediately after leaving the station which forms the junction with the Swansea branch, the line rises with a gradient of 1 in 50 for a distance of one mile and a half, which brings you to the entrance of the Swansea tunnel. Through the tunnel (the length of which is half a mile) the rise is 1 in 70, with a short level at the west end. The line then falls towards Carmarthen 1 in 50 for 2-i miles, and after this the line is practically a level all the way to Carmarthen, merely rising from 2ft. to 3ft. to meet roads or tramways.
