PARIS, FILDAT &aura.

I find the following paragraph in Galsrani:

The democratic electoral oommities of Parrs ltsa defini-
tively decided that It Flavin and IL Jules Pane shall
sleet to sit, the former for the Measelte, and the latter for
the Rhone ; also, that the candidates to replace them at
Paris shall be ML de Laboulaye and Ream.

Not believing the above news, so far as regards
K Renan, I have endeavoured to trace it to its
source, and I cannot find that there is any autho-
rity for it beyond a paragraph in the ultramontane
journal, the Union. None of the recognised organs
of the democratic committee say anything of the
kind. It would be very bad policy of the opposi-
tion to cause disunion in the liberal party by bring-
ing forward such a name as K Remit, the merits
or demerits of whose celebrated book stand upon
grounds quite separate from politics. Although
I have no certain information on the subject, I
feel certain that this rumour is the invention of
an enemy. K lAboulaye would be an admirable
candidate; and for the second vacancy no better
man could be found than K Dufaure. I hope
that the democratic committee will ultimately
agree to bring him forward ; but there are doubts
about it, for many are very jealous of his talent,
and there are some who think him not liberal
' enough. 1 can state positively, however, that
most of the rumours circulating about the plan of
1 campaign of the liberal party are unfounded ; the
majority of the liberal deputies are not yet in
Paris.

The France take, exception to the statement of
&London journal that the French government has
recently " withdrawn" an authorization to build
war ships for the Confederates in French docks,)
and affirms that, having reference to the French
declaration of neutrality, " which it has always
faithfully observed," it is quite impossible that
any such authorisation can ever have been given.
The Pays contradicts en bloc the bad news from
Mexico contained in the English journals, and
asserts that, with the exception of a " few cues" of
vomito, the health of the troops is satisfactory, and
that "tranquillity" universally prevails in all the
parts of the country subjected to French arms.
A telegram says that the damage done by the
fire at the Menageries Impiriales at Ciotat amounts
only to 100,000 fr. instead of 3 millions, which was
the original exaggerates: statement.

The Empress has arrived at St. Cloud on her
return from her trip to Spain. At Toulon yester-
day she gave a grand dinner on board her yacht,
the Aigle, to the port admiral, Vioe-Admiral
Rigault de Genouilly, and a distinguished party.
She was present at the launching of the iron-clad
frigate the Provence.
M. and Madame Nader have arrived in Paris,
having travelled in a railway carriage fitted up with
beds. Dr. Richard having examined M. Naclar's
leg, reports that there is a broken bone in the
foot

The Opinion Nationale, " with great regret,"
announce that the statement which it reproduced
from the Correspondance Builier, that the Polish
national government had sent eight millions of
florins to General Idieroslawalki for the purpose of
raising recruits, is " unfortunately " not true.
