PARIS, WRUNG:DAT ETININO.
M. Troplong is likely to be splendidly rewarded
for his report to the Senate in favour of the empire.
Is is believed that he will be the future vice-president
of the Senate, and as the presidency of the Emperor
will of course be only nominal, M. Troplong will
substantially be the successor of Prince Jerome.
But more than this, he is spoken of u the probable
Presitkut el the Court of Cessation, from which post
the present oecupant is about to retire. M. Troploni
will not object to hold the two offices together, and
he perhaps thinks the tenure of the judicial beat the
most secure of the two.

I see it stated in the papers that Prince Jerome
Bonaparte, having been informed that a sum of
11.3ignr. was standing in hie name in the treasuries of
Brest and Toulon, as his share of prize money ob-
tained by veserls in which he sailed, has ordered that
it shall tie distributed angingst the old sailors of the
port of Concerning, in Britanny. It is a curious
circumstance that money lawfully due to Jerome
should have been li It unclaimed duriug the many-
years that he most have stood in much more need of
it than he does now. lam inclined to look upon this
little sum of 1,300 k. as a cloud as big as a man's
band; and I will venture to prophecy that before
kng a great deal will be heard of the enormous
claims upon France of the Bonaparte family, which
were supposed to be released when the Orleans pro-
perty was conilsested.
A political refugee, named Barrel, from Avenii,res
(Ain), was arrested at Chamborg on the 17th under
curious circumstances. He arrived, as a traveller, at
the Hotel du Petit Marseille, and having engaged a
room, desired that great care might be taken to keep
the door closed while he went out for a short time.
He expected, he said, a person to ask for him, and
would pay for whatever refreshments might be,
served to his friend. As he was about to knee the
house a police commissioner, attended by several
earabineers, arrested him. His room was searched,
and 200 copies of "Napoleon tho Little" and five
packets of gunpowder were fuund.
The Municipal Council of Vic.Fezensac (Gera) has
been suspended.
Ws read in the Journal do Saone et Loire:

We we by advertisements that M. de Lamartine is
offering for sale the hue lands and Chateau of 51.orceen,
near Mac .n. We do not doubt that such a splendid
property will putl purchasers; but we deplore the sad
arc...skit* which compel our Illustrious neighbour, no doubt
with sorrow, to depnve himself of this Manly estate and
residence.

We read in the Patric:
It is mid that the forests of Crecy and of Armainvilliers,
diluted in the department of the Seine•et-Marne, the pro-
per, of the Duke de Montpen►ier, have been purchased by
a rich capitalist for seven millions ; the upset price for the
adjudication, which WA/ tised for the 30th inst., was rot
down at sir millions.
