James Maconochie, Esq. I William Godfrey Ilnet, Esq. SECRETARY (ad interim). Mr. George Frederick Goodman. This Company being now completely registered, the Directors take the earliest opportunity of laying before the Shareholders statement of its progress ant prospects. It may be confidently asserted that no Company was ever brought before the public with equal prospect of speedy and successful results. The prompt assistance afforded by the Shareholders to the Direc tors, and the perfect confidence in the management displayed by them, have enabled the Directors to take such steps as must ensure an enormous dividend within a few months. Sir Henry Huntley, the resident Directo r in California, has been in that country five months, and the course adopted by the Directors for carrying out this enterprise results from the experience obtained him during that period. The instructions given to Sir Henry Hunt ey were, in effect, that he should make every possible in relative to the state of the country, the tenure of land, the com paratie merits of the different quartz veins in the several districts of California, and after mature deliberation to advise the Directors as to their best course of proceeding, and to take such measures as would enable them to carry out his views as speedily as possible. Following these instructions, he has secured tar the benefit of the Company, sufficient lands for all mining purposes ; but he is clearly of opinion, that for the present, at least, it is not desirable to under take mining operations, but to crush and amalgamate quartz to be supplied by those who arc possesse I of mines, and have raised the quartz. With the assistance of some gentlemen of great experience in geology and mining matters, he has inspected and tested a great variety of veins in the Mariposa, Nevada, Grass Valley, and other districts, and has comeof Grass Valley to the conclus and upon soand reasons, that the vicinity Nevada City, is that which affords the greatest advantages foragree- car rying OR our enterprise. Ile has, therefore, entered into ment with some American gentlemen, who have formed a company, and have opened, and, to a considerable extent, worked a vein of quartz, di.tant about three miles from G ra ss . Valley and Nevada City, and about thirty miles from Sacramento City, to crush and amalgamate the quartz to be raised from the minalready e openecrud hed by them. By means of machinery, he has and amalgamated considerable quantities of the quartz sup plied him from this mine; and the r,sult of his operations has been to satisfy himself that the vein is of a full average richness, and that the locality ofiers many important advantages in the way of water, fuel, means of transit, &c., &c. He has,hi thre fore, entered into a formal ag reement with that Co ny, the m with ie in a few words, amounts to th i s : he is to be suppld by as much quartz as his machinery shall be found capable of crushing; the quartz is to be deposited at the mills free of expense ; he is to crush and amalgamate it at his own expense, and he gAd produced is to be divided equally between the owners of the vein and our Company. Formal and legal agreements for carrying out the above arransement fairly and honestly, and without any copartnership, have been entered into. Steam-englnes a n d machinery estimated to cru sh about thirty tons been of quartz a d nder ay, with funds sufficient for putt in g it in motion, have placed u the control of Sir Henry Huntley; and, unless w some unexpected delay has arisen, the machinery is now actually at ork, and a return will be made about Christmas next. For the satisfaction of the existing shareholders of thiS Company, and without wishing, in any manner, to deteriorate from the merits of other Companies, the Directors are desirous of calling atten Ctiom on to some of the more prominent advantages possessed by this puny over others now in the field. Shareholders in other Companies m ust mainly rely upon reports sent over by persons interested in selling the mine ; we rely upon the reports of our own resident Director and his practical assistants on the spot, whose only interest is to give us facts. The Directors of other Companies generally base the estimate of the value of their mine upon calculations founded on experiments upon a few pieces of specimen quartz, sent over to this country for the express purpose of advertising the commodity offered for sale to the British public; we found our calculations upon experiments tried, during several weeks, on quartz raised from the mine, and crushed and amalgamated by ur own Superintendent, and with our own machinery and apparaotus. Other C ompan i e s propose to incur the expense and risk of carrying out mining operations spon their vein, before the quartz arrives at their mill, and, should their labours prove successful, they must then pay out of their profits large per-centages for obtsining their leases, and large royal ties to their lessors ; whereas we have secured as much quartz as our machinery is capable of crushing, the title to which iss as secure or as that of any other company, unfettered by any retge royalty. The half of the produce to be paid by this Comb pg any to the parties who supply us , fre e of expense, with the quartz, beface n merely equivalent to the dividend upon the outlay of capital ex pended in raising the quartz, and lodging it at the mill. All the new companies, unlike this, must be a considerable time before their arrangements and machinery can be ready for carrying out their schemes—this Company alone is actually at work. The paid-up capital of the Company will not exceed 20,0001. An almost certain estimate of the produce of our machinery can be formed, and, from the calculations made, the Directors confidently anticipate being able even at the most moderate estimate, to afford a dividend of 200 per cent., at the least, within the next twelve months. According to the data furnished to us, the quartz which we are now working yields upon an average 4d. per pound, or 1/. 17s. 4d. per cwt., or 371. Gs. Sd. per ton; and, as we can crush and amalgamate at least 20 tons per diem, that would amount to 7461. 13s. 4d., or 3731. Gs. B d. p er diem as the share of this Company. By the peculiar arrangements this Company has made, based upon practical experience, the economy in working expenses must necessarily be such as to render the current outlay most trifling. In case circumstances should induce the Directors to alter the system now adopted, and lead them to undertake mining operations of their own, arrangements have been made securing four distinct sit es, most carefu ll y selected for their eligibility for mining pur poses, and Sir Henry Huntley has on the spot Cornish miners who went out with him, and who have voluntarily retendered him their services. The gentlemen who formed the Provisional Committee of this Company, have added to their number several gentlemen possebodyssing th e acquaintance and entire confidence of a very large of Shareholders in the provincial districts. To add s men to t Dire.; to ry was due to those Share h o lders who kave uch in . fact estab he lished and nobly supp orted this Company. Measures will be taken for further augmenting the Directory , and a Special General Meet ing of the Shareholde rs will be convened fur middle of thanks to January. In conclusion, the Dir ectors beg to offer their best the Shareholders for the uniform support they have received, and they pledge themselves that the affairs of this Company sole shall be c fonro - ducted with the most rigid economy, and with w of warding the interest of the Shareholders. The Directors beg to call the attention of Shahis 7holders Company, it particular can ly to the fact that, from the s y stem adopted by t not be affected by the question now agitated The district between the holders of leases and Colonel Fremont or his agents. selected . for the operations of this Company is far removed from the tract claimed by Colonel Fremont. The difficulty arising out of the many points now raised relative to the tenure of land under leases, hadh b e een long known to and was maturely cons idered by thosecontrol of the affairs of this Company, and was one of the reasons which not in duced them to persue for the prese nt the course they have, and to incur certain heavy expenses with doubtful results.

General Officers, the Leaders of Party, arrested and sent to Prison, the Council of State Dissolved, and Louis Napoleon is Dictator. This astounding intelligence, transmitted from Paris in a few minutes, nearly frightened London from its propriety on Tues day last, yo from all we can learn the President completely followed the example set In she British metropolis years ago, even to the close, for when he had effected the mighty change he appealed to the people, whose support alone he craved. The change to which we refer was that which in forty-eight hours was accomplished by E. MOSES and SON. The monopolists were more formidable than the General Assembly, and they were not without leaders, but Messrs. E. MOSES and SONS crushed them at once by loering the price of a man's clothes fifty per cent., and appealing t w o the people. What was the result? The extortion and wrong doings of those they displaced was apparent, and the people exulted in the change. They gladly seized upon the benefits extended to them, and supported the firm. Every man in the kingdom is now at liberty to buy for himself and his family better clotnes than they ever had before, and at less than half price ; let any one, if indeed there be any, who doubts this, inspect the present unrivalled stock of Winter Clothing at the Monarch Mart in Aldgato and the Minories, or their Grand West-end Branch Establishment in New Oxford-street, corner of Hart-street, where everything of the newest arid neatest and best is marked with its prices, and they will doubt no longer.

TIMES.--We must not, it seems, grudge to Louis Napoleon the suffrage—redeat quantum—of Sir Francis Bond Head, and we publish in another column a letter in which that very chivalrous and ec centric Baronet pronounces decidedly in the Dictator's favour. It is not for us to inquire by what process an English gentlema•o, who may be assumed to have some preference for freedom and truth in his own country, should have satisfied himself that France is to be best governed by a system of open violence and unblushing mendacity. All the facts—if so they can be called—on which Sir F. B. Head affects to rely, 'ere notorious inventions of the new Government or its supporters. We can hardly imagine that he still be lieves any " guilt " can be substantiated against General Changarnier, or that any attempt will ever be made to establish judicially the existence of the conspiracy which served as the pretence for the arrest of that officer and his colleagues. If any evidence of such a conspiracy had existed, it is evident that criminal proceedings would already have been com menced against these Generals. But the charge seems to be dropped even by the organs of the Freuch Government ; and, if any further proof ba needed, we confidently adduce the testimony of the narrative we published yesterday—a narrative which virtually con veys the opinions and declarations of at least 230 of the first men in France. The statement that General Changarnier once contemplated the invasion of Fang land, " for the purpose of forcing upon its inhabitants a Republic," rests, we believe, on no better autho rity than a loose assertion of M. Emile de Gi rardin ; but if Sir Francis B. Head will favour us with any further proof of this allegation, we shall be indebted to him. To us it does not occasion the smallest surprise that General Changarnier or any other General or officer in the French army should have speculated on the chances of invading this island ; and, it we remember rightly, a certain book appeared not many months ago in which Sir Francis B. Head undertook to convince the young ladies and the old ladies of England that the probabilities of such an in vasion is much greater than was commonly supposed till that work was written. But we venture to affirm that no bubble was ever blown by "an Old Man from the Brunnen" of revolutions more flimsy and noxious than this discovery that France has just ceased to be formidable since she has passed into the hands of a military Government. Before this revolution we had the security derived from the character of a civil Go vernment which had respected its engagements and which obeyed the laws. We knew that the Constitu tional or Republican Administrations of France could not easily be plunged into hostilities or military ad ventures by the ambition or caprice of a single man. She had her Joinvilles and her Lamoricieres, but their fretful disposition was controlled by the sounder influence of Parliamentary statesmen. Two impor tant changes have, however, now occurred in the state of France with reference to foreign nations : the whole power of her Government and her enormous military resources have passed under the absolute control of a single ruler, acting in concert with the most daring and unscrupulous of the African generals —men in comparison with whom Changarnier and Cavaignac are models of forbearance and honour; and, secondly, this extraordinary power has been acquired by means which indicate a total absence of moral principle, a reckless disregard of legal ob ligations, a skilful direction of sudden strokes in war, and an ambition the more formidable because it is slow in the pursuit of its objects, but rapid in the final execution of them. Sir Francis B. Head will hardly persuade the people of England - hat these facts are additional guarantees of peace, because it pleases him to tack to the name of Louis Napoleen a string of ironical epithets. This " mild and benevolent" ruler has just shed the blood of hundreds, and probably thousands, of French citizens; and the troops were ordered to select by preference as their victims persons of the class least akin to Socialist insurgents. 'This " just and bold" statesman stole upon his Parliamentary opponents like a thief in the night, and sent his soldiers, excited by gratuities, and led by policemen, to attack the unarmed defenders of the Constitution he had most solemnly sworn before God and man to observe. This " honest and high minded" personage has established a Government even more remarkable for its mendacity than for its violence. We read, for instance, in the Patrie of the 6th of December the following paragraph, which deserves to be textually quoted :-- " Tons les journ aux Anglais sont d'accord pour reconnaitre I'urgence des mesures prises par le President de la Republique, et ils donnent la plus entiere adhesion asa politique." Od the same day the correspondents of two English journals were threatened with expulsion from Paris. Hundreds o' similar instances could be quoted ; and these are the seeds of what Sir Francis B Head considers no " honest and highminded" Government. For our selves, after the experience we have now had and the certainty we have now acquired that Louis Napoleon and his Government are sustrained in their course by no earthly consideration of law and duty, we must confess that our confidence in his future conduct is extinct. As long as he remained within the bounds of the law, far from offering him any opposition, we were disposed to view his struggle against a factious Assembly with favour, and we have only reason to regret that he has acted with less integrity than we then gave him credit for. We still hope that he will consider it his interest to maintain amicable relations with the British Government, and that he will not add the horrors of foreign war to the evils which already efilict his country. It is not improbable that his natural jealousy of any brilliant military achievements accomplished by other leaders of an army not under his own command will deter him from engaging in war; and it certainly is the duty of the British Government and nation not to allow the opinions they must entertain of his actions in France to alter or impair the international relations of the Western States of Europe. We have uni formly advocated the principle that our relations with foreign States are not to be made dependent on the i'sternal policy of their Governments, and the present policy of the Government of France is no just cause of animosity or interference on our part, any more than the policy of the Governments of Austria, or Frussia, or Naples, to which it is as nearly allied as a state of illegal violence can be made to a state of legalized oppression. But, though we acknowledge, and shall respect these rules of international policy, and we think that the Government is right in all cases to adhere to them, we cannot modify opinions founded on historical truth, and we cannot resuscitate a con fidence which has died so violent a death. Least of all can we understand that an Englishman and an officer, who blew the trumpet of alarm when the aspect of France was comparatively pacific, should derive confidence in the temper and good faith of the French Government from what is now passing there, and should lay aside his defensive armour, because the absolute ruler of France is called Bonaparte and the Minister of War St. Arnaud. If such language be seriously used, it seems to us to indicate a degree of credulity we should not have expected even in Sir Francis B. Head, or an absence of fixed principles, of which we should be still more unwilling to accuse him. Mr. Burke once observed, in a comparison between the French Republic of 1791 and the Government of Algiers, that Algiers was weak, and Algiers was far off, and therefore gave him very little uneasiness ; but that if Algiers had come to Calais he should think very differently of the matter. This seems to be precisely the event which has now occurred, and that in a more literal sense than even the prophetic gifts of Mr. Burke could have foretold. Algiers is at Calais ; and it becomes us not to cherish vague illusions about the virtues of a Government known as yet only by :its violences, but to adopt a line of conduct towards it conciliatory, though not confiding, being equally pre pared for any other issue. Sir Francis B. Head gives Louis Napoleon credit for doing all in his power to maintain amicable relations with Great Britain, and we have cordially recognised the same disposition on the part of the President whenever we could. It is probably to this consideration that his policy owes whatever indulgence it has met with here ; and peo ple seem even to have forgotten that about 18 months ago the French Ambassador was withdrawn, upon a very slight and indirect provocation, by his orders from London. We sincerely desire, however, the continuance of such dispositions on his part, and we shall then be ready to acquiesce in his foreign policy, whatever we may think of the origin of his power. But two general reflections force: themselves upon the mind and cloud with doubt even the rose coloured "Bubbles" of Sir Francis B. Head. It can hardly be questioned that the recent measures of the President have met with entire approval in that powerful combination of absolute Governments which now extends from St. Petersburgh to the Rhine, the Danube, and the kingdom of Naples. The destruc tion of constitutional law, the failure of Republican government, and the ascendancy of military power, are perfectly consistent with the doctrines which pre vail over that large portion of the continent. Hitherto Lord Palmerston has not been considered an ardent adherent of this system, and we have yet to learn that the coup dtEtat of the 2(1 of December has, among other wonders, effected his conversion. But, at any rate, Lord Palmerston is too sagacious not to perceive that a political combination, on the principles of common repression, between France and all the other military [PRICE SD, Governments of the continents fr om which we are unhappily estrang e d, i s an evento jr r . egnant with evil . to the influen ce an d securityf re-election o f equa l moment is, Napoleon h as accomplished histnissilloln of t i i t iat Britain. when .

POST.—We have thought it due, not less to the public than to the gentleman who is charged with the very onerous duty of conducting our Paris cor respondence, to publish in a separate column so much of his last communication as he has felt himself bound to devote to his own vindication, and that of his colleagues from the stupid and unwarrantable calumnies of the Times. Having exhausted his own large stock of foul inventions, our contemporary condescended to borrow from au occasional contri butor to a weekly journal a statement libellous in the 1 extreme against all the correspondents of the daily I press at Paris, not even excepting his own—a gen tleman whose letters have exhibited a candour and ability which have merited a very different reward. Of the wretched fabrication in question, we observed, on Monday last, that it " contained a tissue of mis statements as to the facts of the struggle in Paris, so plain and open to contradiction from all reliable evi dence, that its appearance in any respectable quarter utterly surprised us. We say nothing of the writer's opinions —if opinions they can be called—but against his assertions, it is our right and duty most strongly and indignantly to protest, since they are calculated to give the most false impressions of the manner in which the correspon dents of the daily press have discharged their arduous task. As far as our own intelligence is concerned, we can answer fur the absolute falsity of the assertion, that ' the correspondents of most of the Londo❑ papers were closeted at the Prefecture of Po lice,' or that a single dispatch has appeared in this journal, for the truth of which the writer is not pre pared to vouch.' " We believe that, with one base exception,' there is not a daily journal in London which will not acknowledge the justice of our re marks. But the Times is willing to adopt as its own, and in its leading columns, the unauthorised allegations of an occasional correspondent of the Ob server—though our weekly contemporary had ex pressly declined all responsibility as to their accuracy when he inserted them. Such is the stuff which enters into the manufacture of Printing-house -square. Shreds and patches—no matter whence stolen, or where found—compose the motley garments in which the clever harlequin moves, from day to day, the wonder or the laughter of mankind. To the cor respondents of the London press in general, the public, not only of England, but of Europe, is largely indebted. Remarkable activity and ability are evident in the results of their anxious toil. The readers of the Morning Post have recognised, not these characteristics only, in the letters of our Paris correspondent, but a singular judgment and im partiality in the selection of such prominent facts as have been best calculated to indicate the real nature and progress of the great change which has taken place in the Government of France. At a time when the rapidity with which events crowded on each other, and the confusion in which all was involved might have bewildered the calmest observation, truth has been winnowed from falsehood, and a faithful picture of each day's history has, without one error, been presented to the world. The facts thus diligently and accurately recorded have not, indeed, told the tale which the Times would have them speak. He, therefore, pours out the vials of his malignant, though impotent, indignation o❑ the heads of those who have written, not according to his wishes, but to the dic tates of truth. Our correspondent has, as it will be seen, disposed of the unworthy assertion, that those who supplied the daily press with information as to the course of recent events in Paris wrote under the surveillance of the police. A pregnant instance, in addition to those which he has cited, occurs to us as we write. In the Times of yesterday, we find, pa raded with all the honours which place and type can confer upon it, as a startling piece of news, the so called decree of 250 of the ex-representatives, by which they declared that " Louis Napoleon Bona parte is deprived of all authority as " President of the Republic. It is introduced in a letter addressed to the editor by one of the said ex-representatives, whose " name it is impossible to disclose." The signatures of the 250 to the " decree" itself, are given with all the emphasis of capitals. Why, amidst this crowd of names that of the writer of the letter should "of course" be suppressed, it is impossible to divine. Bat any one who reads the Times alone would suppose that this document, so hostile to the President, supported as it is by names distinguished in literature and i❑ politics —is precisely one of those things which could not be furnished by those gentle men who wrote their letters in the Prefecture of Police, and who could therefore communicate such intelli gence only as was favourable to the Government. Such readers will further and firmly believe that the Times was able to produce the document before us yesterday for the first time, by special favour of the anonymous ex-representative. Yet, so long ago as the sth instant (just six days before), the "decree," with all the names appended, appeared in the Morning Post as part of our Paris correspondent's letter, dated the previous dsy. After this, what can be thought of the early intelligence, and, above all, what of the veracity of the Times? We would willingly be relieved from the irksome task of pointing out stains so foul on the columns of a contemporary. Would that, by some slight regard to decency, he would spare us the frequent discharge of a duty so humiliating to the profession of journal ism. But, on the contrary, the number and magni tude of his mis-statements defy the most industrious toil to name, much less to refute them. But one instance more. On Saturday, the 6th inst., we find the following : " As another example of the character of this Govern ment, we notice the fact that, on Monday, the Ist of I)cember, the Minister of Finance induced the Bank of Fiance to lend him a million sterling, alleging that it was a mere affair of temporary accommodation, to be provided for by Treasnry bills. The use made of these funds is now sufficiently apparent, for the coup d' eta t took place next morning, and services were required and performed, for which the most liberal donations to the army and the police would hardly seem dispropor tioned.' Now, had the French Government, the French army, and the French police been guilty of the unexampled dishonesty, and subjected themselves to the dreadful disgrace here charged upon them, no language would have been sufficiently strong to characterise their baseness, except that which should worthily hold up to the contempt of mankind the yet baser fabricator of so enormous a calumny—if calumny it were. Yet, in the correspondence of all the daily journals, the I Times itself not excepted, there appears two letters, both dated the 6th of December, one from M. de Ca sablanca, the Minister of Finance alluded to, ad dressed to M. d'Argout, Governor of the Bank of France, and the other the reply of M. d'Argout, which give the most unqualified contradiction to the allega tions thus impudently set forth. Well. The Times dares not suppress the letter of his correspondent—but never in any subsequent leader, does he attempt the honourable reparation thus proved to be due to those whom he has so vilely calumniated. We may safely leave this fact to confirm and deepen the disgust with which all honourable minds must read or hear the word " Times." TilE MIDLAND CATTLE SHOW.

RIOT AT GRANTIIAM. — For several days past a large number of . navvies employed under a contractor on th e t Northern Railway at this town have been on strik e f or I Great an advance of 3d. a day upon their present wages, 2s. 3d. On Wednesday they became so outrageous, setting the authorities at defiance, and threatening to blow the place up, that a message was dispatched by the evening train to Not- \ tingham for a detachment of military. Two troops, under the command of Major Jones, proceeded on march at half past five o'clock in the morning, and arrived in Grantham at ten. They succeeded in dispersing the men, about 600 in%, number, without having recourse to arms, and they have since continued tractable. AUTLIENTICITY OF OUR PARIS COR RESPONDENCE. (FROM OUR PARIS CORRESPONDENT.) PARIS, WEDNESDAY, Disc, le. With reference to some false rumours and raise statements, which I am ashamed to see circulated in English journals, to the effect that the Paris coo - spondence of the English press had been, since the late coil]) d'etat, under the control of the French police, allow me to make the following simple state ment of a few facts. The Paris correspondence is sent in three ways -Ist, by post to London ; 211 y, by post to Calais or Dover, and thence by electric telegraph to London ; and, idly, by telegraph from, Paris. Since the 2d of December the French Government has exercised no more supervision over the Paris cor respondence than it assumed previously. Before, as since that date, it has always reserved to itself the right of refusing to transmit by telegraph from Paris to London any intelligence which it may not deem exact. But it never has ventured in the least to tamper with or pervert any information forwarded through its channel. My dispatches by electric telegraph from Paris to London always, I fi n d, ap peared i n the Morning Post as I sent them f rom P ar i s during th e cr isis. For a d ay or t wo they were not permitt e d t o b e i se e e a i a n s g , that and I b a theeg proof e d w i s ti s ent with ou t th e initials of the Minister being affixed to them, as tnhcattly to be had done his duty by telegr ap h is not in con tradiction to truth. I beli eve that nwhich is sent by a ther e Government is not a single fact which I have omitt e d to forward by the quickest possible n State that in but one instance • did the Alini s t t his pen through any phrase in any dispatch electricof pu I said i n my mine. telegraph dispatch of the 4th December "H ombre de tu" barricades con siderable."ley Thi s Was stopped on the ground that no one yet knew how many had been killed, and that the word "considerable" would probably excite too great apprehensions. The very next morning, how• ever, when, amongst other matters I stated in another electric telegraph dispatch, that " ' AI Gaston Dous soubs and fourteen men were shot * 01:1 one barricade," not the least objection was m d a fact. a e to it because it was False statements, or alarming conj ectures, are all that the Fren c h G overnment refuses to its telegraph. A s f ar as my own experi t e ransmit n by repeat, that as I h ave on l y sent absolute fa:t e I a goes ' I have never found the lea s t diffi cu l ty i n their transmission. The Times states th a t th e correspondents oftl Morning Chronicle and Gl o b e h ave b een sent awaye from Paris for having writt en th e trut h . It is not alio. Both gentlemen are here, and have not received the notice to quit with which they were threatened by the Patric. The displeasure of the French Govern-- ment was excited against the Chronicle and Globe, because those journals published what purported to be an electric telegraphic dispatch from Paris, which stated that Rheims, Strasbourg, and Rouen, had risen—that General Nieumayer (who is quietly living in Paris) was marching to attack Paris, as was also General Castellane, the commander of the Lyons division—that this was denied by Government —that the fidelity of General Magnan, the commander in-chief of Paris, could not be depended on—and that Paris itself was in a most terrible state. This was enough to make any Government angry, who was occupied in repressing an armed insurrection, and who had placarded on the walls severe warnings to bearers of false news, that they would be rogarded as accomplices in the insurrection, and be liable to the punishments inflicted on insurgents. The Times, however, lauds the statement as being the truth. Have events proved it ? or was it an in vention of the enemy ? Aye! of the enemy in Lowlon. The French Government, finding that in such cri tical circumstances, English journals liable to the imputation of being colporteurs defausses nauvelles, and thus accomplices in the insurrection, stopped them last Sunday in the Post-office. After examina tion they were delivered later than usual. But since Sunday they have all been delivered as formealy. Far from excluding papers that tell the truth, the Government has not forbidden the Times to enter, many of the statements of whose leaders are more perniciously false than the statement inserted (may we hope) by some error of judgment in the Chronicle and the Globe. I have the right to assert that the Times' speaks falsely, for lam here on the spot ; and 1 do assert that most of the statements of the Times' " leaders" are not in accordance with facts, nor with the accounts of them given in its own or any other dispatches of the Parisian correspondents of the London papers. But this journal, not content with distorting events to suit its own purposes, dares to calumniate English m,.n, and actually countenances a statement that the Paris correspondence is now conducted subject to the control of the French police. The glaring absurdity of this assertion I need not point out. But I merely state, that the correspondents of the London papers have been in no manner of way interfered with by the police. Thus all the stories about our being carried off to the Prefecture, writing our correspondence thence, &c , &c., are a tissue of nonsense, and that none but the Times would be so careless of the cha-. racier of Englishmen as to pretend that any of us would submit to the dictation of a foreign police. I should also mention that it is absurd to state that we have no means of knowing the real state of the departments, except by means of Government papers. Then, of what use is pen and ink? Does the Times imagine that constituents never Ni rite to their repre sentatives, merchants to their connexions, friends to friends ; and does it imagine that the Government could, even if it would, keep the true state of the departments from oosing out. No! However much we may desire the re-establishment of the freedom of the press, still we are by no means ignorant of all that is going on in the departments, as well as in Paris, though journalism b 3 for the present suppressed. —Morning Post. LOUIS NAPOLEON and his COUP D'ETAT. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. Sir—As in the leading article of the Times of yes terday (the Bth inst.) you Bay that the English press (with one base exception) utters with i's united voice abhorrence of the daring blow lately struck by Louis Napoleon, I feel confidently that, with the impartial justice which distinguishes your journal, you will allow me, through its columns, to submit to the sober judgment of the country, in his defence, a few words, founded on observations I have lately had an oppor tunity of making in the French metropolis. In quotations from other newspapers Prince Louis Napoleon is described, in your paper of yesterday, as "a thief in the night who has stolen the liberties of the nation"—" an imposter who has played an atro cious game"—" a usurper who has outraged and in sulted the nation" --"a low-minded adventurer who has perpetrated licgh treason in its grossest and most criminal form." Now, the result o f my l a t e i nqu iries and be pee n sonal observatio n i n d uce me to b e li e ve himmild, f main taining taining the peace of the world, and of living a n d • benevolent, just, bold, honest, high-minded statesman, animated , t b h y , personal glory f t a r ' a l i n b q i t u i z t i ? n g Prance, win furhimself, dying in good fellowship with the British people. From data I was enabled to collect, I am induced to believe, and without hesitation I foretell, that the bold steps be has lately taken will, by an overwhelm• ing majority, be approved by the army in France, by to army in Algeria, by the citizens in Paris, and byte inhabitants of the whole of the French Republic. I may be wrong in my opinion of the man, and in my confident prediction of the verdict of the French nation ; in the meanwhile, however, surely the English press, in justice to its high character, ought t a n are tiat i i n n g possession either the not to condemn General Changarnier, his fellowepri- Boners at Ham, or Prince Louis Napoleon, until the spublicubs of i ui t l h t e of the • isoned or the imprisoner. were I It would be irrelevant to the case in dispute u rt wholeiroo imprisoned r the evidence to presume to urge the English pres l s _ b to an c g s ar i Te r, Prince Louis Napoleon against Gren th e f: g in his power because the former has done e very thing Great Britain, and to maintain friendly w it hrelation lately volunteered, at because General Changarnie r which he named, to invade the head of a French force which forcing upon its inhabi tants England for the purpose f On the other hand, I submit to a Republic.of the country that it is ungrateful, the good sense unjust for the press of England to pre judgeunnatural, and taut question in dispute, by blindly the Important ally, and by supporting the man Who condemning our con proposed to invade us. Before the teeth of the French army, Prince Louis Napoleon has, by his solitary mandate, thrown into prison its most popular Generals. Before the teeth of the nation he has scattered to the winds or imprisoned the whole of their representatives. Primiz facie, it is to be inferred that an unmilitary man would not have dared to take two such steps, unless in his conscience he knew that, before God and his country, he would he enabled to vindicate his conduct. As bystanders let, therefore, the British nation, with their accustomed dignity and justice, await the production cf the evidence to be adduced before, through the public press, they pronounce their verdict.—l am, sir, your obedient servant, Oxendon, Dec. 9. F. B. HEAD. EXTRAORDINARY CAPTURE OF A BADGER.—A few days ago, as Mr. Nix, landlord of the New Sun Inn, Spittle Retford, was passing through a wood in the neighbour- hood of Elksley, his dog, a true bred terrier, stood at a hole in the ground. It was evident by the great anxiety shown by the dog that vermin was not far off. A spade was pro cured, and when a large quantity of earth had been removed in rushed the resolute terrier. A fierce and bloody fight en sued ; and the dog succeeded in bringing to light a fine bad ger, which was secured and carried home. The badger weighed 201 b., and the dog, only a young one, 141 b. This an extraordinary circumstance, not only with regard to the . . spirit and pluck of the terrier, but to the capture cf the badger itself; for the breed, although numerous in bygotto ftat , ,, tw I now nearly exterminated' London : Chapman and Hall, 103, Piccadilly.

(according to the new tariff), which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 101jd. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25.29 ' • and the ex change at Paris on London at short bein g 25.171, it follows that gold is about 0.48 per cent. dearer in Paris than in London. The above is, however, merely a nominal quotation. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 429 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of Si. 17s. lop.. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13.7 ; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13.8, it follows that gold is 0.58 per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The course of ex change at New York on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 114 per cent., and the par of exchange between England and America being 109 23-40 per cent, it follows that the exchange is nominally 0.92 per cent. in favour of England ; and, after making allowance for difference of interest and charges of transport, the present rate leaves a profit on the importation of gold from the United States.
