:PARIS, THUAIDAT EVENING.

There is no news of the Emperor's progress to the
South. The Afessiteur of to-morrow, will, doubtless,
contain some telegraphic despatches on the subject.
According to the Massager de Bayonne the Em-
press was to have arrived at Biarritz yesterday from
Egan-Boluses. If this be true, it is at Biarritz,
and not at Eauz-Bonnes, that the Emperor will
have joined her Majesty.
Several German papers confirm the important news
of the death of the Russian General Totleben. They
speak of General Melnikoff as his successor as
engineer-in-chief, charged with the defence of
Sebastopol. It is also said that the vigorous
attacks of the Allies had discouraged the gar-
rison to such a degree that Prince aortas-
koff had sent for the Archbishop of Cherson and
Tanis to come to Sebastopol in person to make an
appeal to the religions zeal of the soldiers. It would
be to court delusion to place reliance on reports of
this kind to the extent of relaxing in even the slightest
degree oar efforts to accomplish the mighty task in
hand. The Czar is well served by his soldiers,
and, notwithstanding many reverses and heavy
losses suffered by them, they were ready, and
but too well prepared to repulse our at-
tack of the 18th of Jane at all points. It is
not surprising after the great slaughter which, not-
withstanding their successful defence, the Russian
despatches admit we made in their ranks on the 18th,
the general commanding Sebastopol should invoke
the aid of the highest ministers of the religion of his
country to console the garrison. But it is too much
to say that, therefore, the enemy is discouraged.
The Gazette de Cologne maintains, notwithstand-
ing the contradiction of the semi-official Vienna
journal, the Austrian Correspondence, that M. de
Hubner will very soon leave PParia ' and affirms, as
intelligence from a good source, that although he
will not take a formal leave of absence, he will not
return to Paris so long as Austria persists in her pre-
sent line of policy.
A Constantinople correspondence of the 16th, in
the Prase, says that General Pelissier had turned all
the newspaper correspondents out of Kamiesch, and
sent them to Constantinople. The reason given for
this measure is that some of them had made public
information, regarding the works in the lines for the
defence of Kamiesch, which ought to have been kept
secret.

There has been again a decline in the Rents (01
15o.) for money, and a rise (of 10o.) for the account.
The loan continues to be the absorbing topic of inte-
rest. It was pretended to-day that the subscriptions
(independently of those from England and Germany)
already exceed 2 milliards; but this estimate is pro-
bably mere guess work. Bank of France rose sfr.
Railways were weak. Almost all the lines closed
with a fall of from 2fr. 60c. to 6fr. The Austrian
Railway rose Mr. 75c.

NEW POLICE PRECAUTIONS IN NAPLES.

Our Naples correspondent forwards the following
document, a circular lately addressed by the Nea-
politan government to its officials, and as authentic
as it is extraordinary. We give it verbatim :
Intendants* of the province, of &c.—let Office of the
Secretary General.—Justice, Polio', War, and Marine.—
Cabinet of the High Police.—Most Secret.-1855.—T0
the Royal Judges and Functionaries of the Police.
Sir,—l have often given various directions for vigilance,
in order to turn aside and destroy the designs of that im-
pions ..demagogy," which is for ever rising up with its num-
Melees intrigues, thus awakening in the evil-disposed foolish
hopes, and intimidating the good with infamous discussions
and alarming reports. His excellency, therefore, the Mi-
nister of General Police, to continuing his venerated orden,
informs me that the complicated Oriental question, and the
war which is the consequence of it, whatever may be its
final results, cannot by any possibility exercise the slightest
influence on the affairs of this kingdom, when full tran-
quillity is enjoyed. But this notwithstanding, the impious
genius of demagogism, deriving Its elements from
the very depression under which it suffers, never
ceases, as usual, to avail itself of such false, foolish hopes,
and to make every effort to intimidate the royalists. The
above named Minister, therefore, desires the public func-
tionaries to destroy such attempts, by means of a positive
and redoubled vigilance on all who are liable to arrest, their
usoeiations, their movements, correspondence, and adhe-
rents, inflicting instantly, and without any hesitation, the
penalties already existing against the publishers of alarming

reporte—observuig, too, that they be punished preliminarily
by the commission of lashes (legnate), independently of the
judicial process. Also over vagabonds, those liable to arrest
who make a show of cheerful confidence, baldansa, who
meet together, and over those, too, who wear bats of a
strange fashion, or the entire beard—most cautiously except-
ing, however, from such a prohibition foreigners, and
foreigners only. By these means and others still, which
local and personal circumstances will suggest, the energy
and the firmness of the ministers of police will be made
known; the credulous and deluded will be undeceived, and
the fidelity of the good will be strengthened towards the
august, adored master " padrone", on seeing themselves
guaranteed, protected, and distinguished. In making,
therefore, this most interesting communication, I order es
follows, for the rigorous and exact accomplishment of your
duties :

1. Continued vigilance over those liable to arrest, noting
well their movementa within and without their communes ;
their habitual meetings both in the country and the city,
and precisely in what localities, the real object of them,
and if with them unciale persons who are not compromised
in political matters.

2. Who of those liable to arrest are the most constant in
reading the official journals (!), where these are read, what
remarks are made on the Eastern question ; and what con-
versations take place after the reading of those journals, in
public or in private; in what muse are taken the news
which an of &meshy circulated ; who retails them; who
gives an impulse to their circulation; and by what means.

3. If the suspected are more than usually in contact with
influential persons, what Is the reason of it, and is their in-
tercourse secret or open.

4. To listen with circumspection and address to the dia.
eouress of ecclerisatios, and to note in your reports thorn
expressions which do violence to the views of public order.

5. To ascertain whether the suspected, either directly or
indirectly, seek to conciliste foolish sympathies by ezeitiog
the minds of the incautious who happen to find themselves
with malignant& .

6. To martian whether the royalist party is discouraged,
affrighted, or intimidated, by whom, and by whet facts or
seductions.

7. To follow every where vagabonds, couriers, and every
other individual who, without any well justified reason, may
pass from one osinmune to another, or have contact with
demagogues, whether from abroad, or whether of the inte-
rior, and to send me instant information of it, according to
the prescribed rules.
