OP THI DAILY 1117,11

PARIS, FAIDAY BYRNING.

It is certain that some news must have been re-
ceived from Sebastopol, which the Government thinks
it expedient to keep back. Bankers and others, who
habitually receive the latest intelligence, are utterly
without information to-day, and feel certain that
private telegraphic despatches mast have been sup-
passed. The remark is obvious that General Can-
nines despatch, occuping but four lines of the
lionigeur, is extremely jejune and unsatisfactory,
considering that it professes to give the only
results known of five days' continuous bom-
bardment. I am enabled to state that the
Moniteur was again remodelled last night, after
it had been settled for the press. Nobody at
all conversant with the way in which these things
are managed supposes that the published despatch
attributed to General Canrobsrt is a textual copy of
the one sent by him. I am told that he adds an
expression of his opinion that he will " not be able
to hold the position, taken." What these positions
are is left in a state of doubt. The despatch says:—
" After having twice driven the enemy from their
strong position, on the WI, we remaia masters of them."
Does this mean the left of the Allies or the left of
the Russians P In the first one the success gained
must have been on the Quarantine side. In the
second, the positions taken must have been those
which adjoin and protect the Malakoff Tower. But
the importance of this position is so well known that
the Moniteur would not, it is presumable, have failed
to call attention to the fact had we gained any mate-
rial advantage on that side. Besides, when a
general speaks of s' the left," he is nasally
understood to mean his own left. I hays
boon privately informed that the engagements
alluded to did in reality take place on the Quaran-
tine position, and I cannot but fear that the am-
biguity noticed in the Moniteur is not accidental.
On the other hand, there is a rumour that some very
good news has arrived, and that they are not pub-
lished, in order that the Emperor may announce
them for the first time to the Boulogne camp. I
wish I could believe this.

A farther improvement has been maintained on
the Bourse, although there was a fall in the course of
the day. The Rente closed at 70fr. bc., with a rise
of 300. Many people still attribute the rise to ma-
noeuvres of the Credit Mobiller and certain leading
capitalists. There was but very little change in
railways.
I learn that the Emperor will leave London at 10
o'clock to-morrow morning, and will arrive at Boa-
togas at 3 o'clock. Their Majesties will sleep at
Boulogne, and early on Sunday morning the Empe-
ror will review the army. They will arrive in Paris
on Sunday afternoon. The precise hour of their
arrival is not yet fixed, but orders are given to pre-
pare a grand reception at the Northern railway
station. An unusual number df National Guards
have been warned to be in readiness, and the con-
stituted state bodies will be there in official costume.

Twenty-five non-commissioned officers of the army
of Paris were arrested in the night of Wednesday
last, and are now confined in the military prisons in
the Rue de Cherche Midi. They are charged with
political conspiracy, as to the precise nature of which
there are conflicting rumours.
