PARIS, MONDAY EYINTNO.
M. Barocho has at last achieved the summit of his
ambition. lie has shirked the heavy responsibilities
incurred by MM. de Morny and Persigny, and set-
tled himself into the stately arm-chair of the Vice-
President of the Council of State, with a salary of
rather more than three thousand sterling. People
are astonished to find M. Boulay de la Meurthe, who
was resident of the former council of state, amine
the simple councillors. One is equally at a lass to
interpret the degrading offer and its accep-
tance. In the son of the celebrated member
of the convention, who was recently vice-
president to the republic, one would have ex-
pected sufficient spirit and self-respect to have spurned
a salary only the half of what ho recently received,
accompanied with a diminution of dignity. You
will have perceived that the two late ministers who
resigned the day before the publication of the decree
of confiscation, Rouher and Magne, have accepted
the post of presidents of sections. This fact entirely
dopnves their refusal to partake the responsibility of
the blow inflicted on the House of Orleans of any
merit whatever. While affecting to protest against
the spoliation, these ex-ministers consent to receive
the handsome salary of 35,000 fr. per annum from
the hand that perpetrated it. Perhaps wo
shall find ere long that the resignation of
M. Fould is not a whit more conscientious and

disinterested. The non-appesi.....-
in the present list seems to countenance the
notion that ho will consent to resume the portfolio of
finance as soon as the first shock of the violent mea-
sure has subsided. The meaning of M. de Morny's
retreat is not only that he regarded the confiscation
aa a blunder—and it is needless to say that in such
eyes a blunder is far worse than a crime,—but the
late Minister of the Interior never sympathised in the
feast with the socialist side of the b.lysean policy.
M. de Morny belonged, as a member of the former
Chamber of Deputies, is the old conservatives,
and has always stuck, throughout his parliamentary
career, to the same party. Nothing was further from
the spirit of that party than extensive schemes of
benevolence towards the working classes, whom they
always would have curbed and never caressed. At
the same time, de Morny bed among his associates
several Orleanists, and particularly M. de Dauber-
exert, an ardent adherent of Louis Philippe and
Onizot. These, whom he wished to put forward into
lucrative and eminent positions, were gall and worm-
wood to his master. To return to the council of
state, the list of the Mossdeur is remarkable rather
for the omissions than the appointments. Nine
of the 36 were members of tho former Council of
State, and may be classed as the leading if not tho
only capacities of the second. Nine others were
members of the National Assembly, but not one of
them over distinguished himselt either as an orator
or committee-man. More mediocre and obscure par-
liamentary names it would be difficult to pick out.
The same may be said of the five ex-ministers, four
of wheal figured in the interim cabinet appointed
after the fall of Changarnier. One member of the
Institute, a celebrated economical writer, and con-
tributor to the Juurnal des 106ide, appears
on the list. Yet Michel Chevalier appears
to be indebted rather to the accident of his being the
brother of M. Auguste Chevalier, the President's
secretary, than to his scientific merits for the distin-
guished position to which he has been promoted.
You will notice the name of Curlier, prefect of police,
and Snip, advocate-general of the court. of 'Paris,
both of whom have won their places by their indefa-
tigable persecution of the press arid every other prin-
ciple of liberty. M. Leroy do St. Around, another
eouncillor, is the brother of the Minister of War.
Among the niaitres de requete and auditors you will
see a host of young relations of the ministers and
influential persons.
The following is M. do Montalembert's letter of
resignation, written on the day of the confiscation at
the Orleans property :
Paris, Jan.=
Monsieur le Ministre,—ln the presence of the decrees
which have appeared this morning, I fulfil en imperial's
duty in begging you to be good enough to accept my resig-
nation of the functions of a member of the consultative com-
mission, created on the 2nd of Lee. last. Although this
annnigesion has not been consulted upon any of the acts of
pew, there does not the less exist in the eyes of the public
aso of solidarity for those who compose it with the policy
dew government, which it is henceforth impossible for me
is aseept. I appeal to your loyalty Mondial. le Minims,
le
▪ if necessary, to that of Prince Louis Napoleon himself,
to render my reel nation public by the same channel as lay
lmination, that n to say, by its insertion in the Monikur,
Accept, Ike.,

of his namc

To M. Casebtanea, Minister of State. -------
The following official note is communicated to the
Mimiteur :

The government cannot refute all the reports which
malevolence does not cease to spread ; the rigorous mea-
sures imposed by necessity have naturally produced an Im-
pression upon public opinion, which supposes daily that the
government will be obliged to take new measures still more
severe. The state of the country is far from justifying such
fears. Without at all relaxing the firmness necessary
against the enemies of order, the government will have no
need for the future of exceptional mecum; and the nor-
mal action of the political bodies, whose organisation pro.
' eceds rapidly, will suffice to consolidate the work of Dec..m-
ber 2.
The following note is communicated to the same
official journal, on the subject of tho negotiations
with Morocco:
The press hiss picked uo for the last month inferstation
respecting the affairs of Morocco, which is totally Inaccu-
rate. The expedition of Sale, conducted by Rear-Admiral
Dubordieti, has produced all the fruits that were capected
from it ; and M. 1). Bourret., charge d'affairee of France at
Tangier, has obtained complete satisfaction either in
corporal chastisement or in money for the grievance"
of which we bad to complain to the authorities
of that tows. The consul-general of Sardinia has,
therefore, no mediation to exercise; the care of pro-
tecting the French residents is alone committed to him.
The Rtaperor of Morocco has written spontaneously to
the Prince President of the Republic a letter filled with
the most explicit assursnees of good will. This amicable
overture has been received as it deserved, and there is no
doubt that the few difficulties of form which are still in the
way of the return of the mission of France to 'rangier,
will be very soeedily resolved according to our wishes, and
conformably to the interests of the two countries.
It if to be lamented that at a time when the go-
vernment feels it necessary to publish an official as-
surance in the 011onitrur that the rfyinte of arbitrary
severity is drawing to a close,it should allow another
journal not only under its control, but enjoying
its immediate patronage, to write in a style
calculated to recal the worst days of the
reign of terror. Within a few hours of the
publication of the "Communicated" note which
I sent you this morning, disclaiming increased seve-
rity, and promising a speedy return to a normal po-
licy of law and moderation, the Motsib•str Parisien
wrote the following disgusting paragraph:
It is idle to talk of forms and constitutions. The first law
of a society is to live, arid the first duty of a good cilia's is
, to outlaw all quarks who, under captious pretests, rap au-
thority in order to take it themelvi a. To attain their object
they eoser tneir inancouvris as besiegers do their trencher',
secure their approaches, and ars given signal take the place. A
sovereign who understands hi. mission defeat. their at-
tempts. Ile makes a noon'''. sally, breaks the heads of the
• mutineer', nose the mouths of the speech makers, and if
there are any who don't find themselves comfortable in their
' podtiou h separates Mem froe. the great `o Two
millions of men have perished because Louis VI. preferred
I to capitulate rather than to execute high and shoe! (haute
1 et coney.) justice upon a handful of talkers, factious people,
sad woundrels.
Until the official Moniker formally includes the

above nsonstrons paragraph of one of tie prinsbal
°rpm if the Tuileries among the false ramdbrs
if whisk it affects to complain, the public mind can
alba aa consolation from the profession, of modera-
ting wt forth this morning.
MIMI are now from 70 to 80 refagees of eminence
at Brussels. It is said that they are to be distributed
among different towns in Belgium, which will be
assigned to them fur their residence. MM. Dover-
tier de Haunting and Jules de Lasteyrie aro ex-
pected to go to England. M. Emilie de Girardin
remains at the Hotel de Bellevue at Brussels, where
he occupies himself with a forthcoming work, to be
called " La Politique Univereelle."
" At the present date (Jan. 21)," says the Senli-
nelle de Toulon," the following is a statement of the
political prisoners confined at Fort Lamalgue:—From
Toulon, 36 ; Hyere, 36 ; Cuers, 382 ; Luc, 67; Dra-
guignan, 447; Brignolles, 276; Oonfaron, 4; Mar-
seilles, 3; making in all 1,341 prisoners. At Fort
St. Louis there are 70 more. On the 19th inst. the
military prisoners at Fort Lamalgue revolted against
the keepers, and order could not be restored until
the troops had been introduced with their arms
charged. The offending parties were then placed
apart on bread and water, and ate to remain so
until their departure for Embrun, which is to take
place to-morrow."
The Toulonnais announces that the Friedland,
man•of--war,• is being disarmed, and that the Me-
diterranean squadron will probably soon sail for the
Iles d'ilyeres.
Ordeni have been transmitted to Lorient for the
steamer the Tonnerro to prepare for sea with all
possible expedition. She is to proceed to Goren,
with six months' stores and provisions for that set-
tlement.

The Mogador steam-frigate has been ordered to
proceed from Rochefort to the Bo d'Aiz roads, where
she will take on board a number of persons condemned
to transportation, and convey them to Cayenne.
To the resignations given by MM. Moutalembert,
do Merode, de Mortemart, and liallex-Claparede of
their seats in the Consultative Commission, which I
have already sent, are added in the Monileur those
of MM. de Moustier, Andre (de la Charente),
Augustin Gliraud, Mathieu-Bodet, and Desjobert.
M. de Fallout has addressed a letter to the Union
de fOuest and to the Journal du Maine-et-Loire, to
say that the state of his health will not permit him
to accept a mandate to the Corps LcgisLtif, which
some of his friends wish to bestow upon him. But
he does not seek to dissuade others, his own refusal
not proceeding from systematic hostility, but entirely
from private and personal motives.
At the Bourse, the Fives fell 65c., closing at
101 fr. 85c. ; the Threes fell 7.5 c., and closed at 64fr.
Bank of Franco shares fell 55fr. Railways fell, but
only slightly.

GERMANY.

The Lithographic Corre,cpatdence of Vienna states
that Prince Windischgratz has definitively accepted
the post of civil and military governor of Hungary.
The Imperial Gazelle publishes a list of subscribers
to the late loan. The next paragraph following this
document reports the condemnation of a Doctor of
Law to two months imprisonment for speaking
lightly of the constitution, which the government
has since abolished. Tho Nem Prussian Gazette
states that the Customs Congress of Vienna will close
on the 28th inst. Nothing is doirg there, few only
of the delegates being provided with powers to
pledge their governments. The Zollverein Congress
cannot meet before March, as at least a month's no-
tice to the governments has to be given ; and the
treaty with Hanover, though accepted by largo ma-
jorities in both chambers, iv not yet ratified.
A letter, dated Vienna, Jan. 21, says: .
Mr. Smith, the last of the throe English missionaries who
remained behind in Vienna, with his bandy, to try to obtain
from the authorities some concession of a trilling nature on
behalf of his invalid wife and young children, was obliged
to leave, with sack and park, two days ago. The cor-
respondents of certain Austrian papers would make it
appear that the expulsion of these men from Froth and
Lemberg is owing to religious considerations, the " Angli-
can rites" not being recognised ;n Austria. But this is all
fudge, and not likely to deceive any one at all conversant
in the matter. The true reason, of course, would not be
mentioned—at all events not published in the newspapers;
and that is neither more nor less than a desire on the part
of the government authorities to give vent to their spleen
against the English before it is too late; and these harmless
individuals were pitched upon, with some degree of tact, it
must be admitted.
