indtators of Fiescbi, the police had
acquainted with the pursuits and
taussta of every rum overlooking the
4, by way of farther precaution, the
the Boulevards were ordered to-day
one not personally known to them
to tab rukindtment in their houses.

Jost before 2 o'clock the pas of the Invalides and
the Barrier do Tram announced the President's ar-
rival. At the railway station a large room had been
sumptuously fitted up for his reception. A velvet
arm-chair resembling a throne and surmounted by an
eagle was placed for him. He was received by the
Archbishop of Paris and his clergy, the ministers,
the Prince President of the Senate, and a large
number of senators, M. Balogh the President and
about 100 members of the Corps Legialatif, the
Councillors of State, the Grand Chancellor of
the Legion of Honour, the Commander-iu-Chief of
the Army of Paris, the Commander-in-Chief of the
National Canards of the Seine, the Judges of the
Court of Qui:natio°, the Judges of the Court of Att.
county, and a vast crowd of public functionaries of
all descriptions.
Numerous deputations of the old soldiers of the
imperial armies, andof working corporations, ranged
themselves near the triumphal arch at the outside of
the station. The Prince remained in the station but
a few minute,.

The President of the Municipal Commission of
Paris, read the following address, voted unauimoualy
by the commission :
Prance,—The municipal commintion of Paris hasten to
salute your return. It congratulates you upon the triumph
which has marked every step of your glorious journey. If
the most noble pleasure that of saving one's coun-
try is to find that country (rational, with what happiness
must your heart be filled. Everywhere you meet with the
grateful feeling due to services rendered. Everywhere the
plaudits and accamations of the people. Where civil dis-
cords had sown despair and death you have brought conso-
lation, hope, life. Prisee, Frames remitted some months
since into your hands the supreme power of giving her
laws. The voice of the people, after bevies consecrated
the 2nd of December, now demands that the power con-
ferred upon you may be strengthened, and that by its sta-
bility it may afford • guarantee for the future. The city
of Paris is happy to emaciate itself with this desire, not in
your interest, Prince, not to add to your glory, for there can
be acne greater than that of having saved your
country, but in the interest of all, and to the
end that the nobility of our institutions may
not for the Ware leave any hope or pretext to the
spirit of disorder. You bans led Praises when it was ma-
mmy to save her from peril. Now that maiden by her
" souvenirs," inspired by her love, she opens to you a new
path—follow her.
M. Berger, the prefect of the Seine, made a speech
in a similar spirit.
The Prince said a few words in reply to each of
these addressee, and then mounted on horseback and
proceeded across the Place %Huebert and the Pont
d'Austerlitz to the Boulevards. At the moment that
he left the station a balloon rose from the arena in
the Place Mares, from which was suspended a figure
of an eagle, which hovered for some time, and ap-
peared to flap its wings over his head. On
the Boulevards du Temple and Filles du
Calvsire were stationed deputations from various de-
partments of the Seine and Oise with banners
inscribed " Vice FEmpereur." The procession passed
at a rapid rate, the Prince being mounted on a
charger that walked five miles an hour. The recep-
tion as he passed, without being enthusiastic, was as
good as could be desired. Cries of "Viva l'Empe-
reur" there certainly were, and plenty of them, and
no other cry was heard. As the procession proceeded
westward into the quarters inhabited by the more
educated and wealthy the cries were fewer. On the
Boulevards Montmartre and des Ituliens, although a
good many handkerchiefs were waved, and several
bouquets were thrown from windows, it was evident
that the majority of the spectators were coolly en-
joying a very pretty sight, and were not under the
influence of any excitement or affection. Still it is
beyond question that this reception is the best that
Louis Napoleon has ever met with in Paris and he
most be heartily delighted with it. Ile arrived at
the Tuileries at 25 minutes past 3.
A belief was prevalent all day that the empire
would actually be . proclaimed in the evening.
Nothing of the kind, however, has taken place. I
have not beard that the Senate has made any propo-
ellen for treating the street acclamations and devices
upon triumphal arches as tantamount to a more
formal declaration of the nation's will, and although
the transformation is now only a question of a few
hours, I believe you will yet see decrees signed Louis
Napoleon, " President of the Republic."
The public buildings and some few private houses
are illuminated this evening. Au immense number
of foreigners and visitors from the departments are
in Paris, and the Boulevards are still very crowded.
The shops were universally closed to-day, even in
quarters the most remote from the line of procession.
Everybody docked to the Boulevards and the Tuile-
ries, and all other parts of Paris appeared deserted.
It was remarked that none of the foreign ministers
took any part in the ceremonies of to-day.

Our usual Paris coreeipondenee of yesterday had
not arrived at the time of going to prem.

The Emancipation of Friday says: "The silence
of the Monitear respecting the solution of the
ministerial crisis has given much publicity to the
rumour that is current that the whole affair is do-
ranged, , and that the solution becomes more un-
certain.

GERMANY.

PRUSSIA.

The Kreu:ZeitunioitikeTiai states that in future
all matters of purely provincial interest will bo dis-
cussed only in the provincial diets, and then executed
by royal ordinance. This report, notwithstanding
its respectable origin, needs confirmation. Such a
practice would reduce very materially the functions
of the chambers.

The protocol of the Stuttgart conferences has been
published at Berlin; it contains nothing which we
have not already published, and completely justifies
the discontinuance of the customs conferences by
Prussia.

The correspondent of tho Cologne Gazette states
that the ministry had resolved to send to the Krell:.
Zeiluny a notice, once for all, that its hostile treat-
ment of M. Louis Bonaparte would not be permitted.
The Prussian minister to the French Republic, who
has been absent from his post on account of ill
health, returns to Paris immediately.
