PARIS, MONDAY EVIIENIII6.

The Paris journals speak with such feeble hope
of the resignation of Lord Russell that I am dis-
posed to think they must by this time know that
the news is:not true. The Nation says that, at all
events, the change would not affect the policy of,
England in regard to the congress.
Baron de Budberg expects to receive the Russian
answer to the imperial invitation to the congress
this evening.
It is much noticed that the Emperor's letter con-
demning M. Renan's book addresses the Bishop of
Arras u "Monsieur L'Er6que," and not as
"Monseigneur." If this designation on the part
of his Majesty is not an inadvertence, which can
hardly be supposed, it is a terrible back-handed
blow to the French bishops. If there is one privi-
lege which they cling to more than another it is
their territorial title of "my lord." Of this title
they were expressly deprived by the organic con-
vention of 1800, but after the Restoration they
'slummed it again, and even in Louis Philippe's time
it was very generally granted to them by cor-tesy.
In 1848 they dropped it like a hot potato, but
with the Second Empire their pretensions to "lord-
ship" revived,with the approbation (as it was sup-
posed) of the new government, and it is a standing
reproach with the clerical prints against the
Seicle and some other independent journals that they
never will call a bishop "Monseigneur." That the
Emperor should at this time of day obey the law of
1800, and fling plain "Monsieur" into the face of
a bishop is a great fact which will spread desolation
in every episcopal palace throughout the empire.
Better, a thousand times, in their opinion, that the
Emperor should believe in Reran, and call a bishop
Monseigneur. Louie XVIIL, it is true, wheu
coming fresh to the throne after trouble= times,
was in the habit of using " Monsieur," but better
things were hoped from the empire under which
the church for so many years has enjoyed extra-
ordinary license.
It is reported that the Pope has invented a very
ingenious excuse for not coming to Paris in person
to take part in the Congress. In the first
place he pleads poverty--an argument which
he never mimes an opportunity to put forward,
because every time he talks about his want of
money be stirs up the faithful to renewed efforts
to get in the St. Peter's pence. Then, moreover,
he attributes his poverty to the spoliation"; of
"Piedmont," and thus makes a protest by imp?i-
cation against the kingdom of Italy, which France
has recognised. But the clinching argument, which
teems with irony and admits of no reply, is that,
although the Holy Father is well aware that the
Emperor as the eldest son of the church would be
only too happy to pay his expenses, be cannot
reconcile it to his ideas of dignity to travel, like
the Annamite ambassadors, at the expense of a
foreign power.
The judgment of the Court of Caseation, in the
matter of the Courser de St. Etienne, is of very great
importance. It decides that by the new law of
1861 (which wonderful to relate the Court of
-Lyons had entirely overlooked) the clause in the
organic decree of 1852, by virtue of which a journal
was necessarily suppressed after two judicial con-
demnations, is repealed.
The iron-clad fleet is expected back at Cherbourg
after what the France calls a highly successful ex-
perimental trip ; but according to other accounts
the ships have suffered very severe damage—the
Solferino more especially—and are obliged to come
to Cherbourg as the only port affording means for
the necessary repairs.
The Bourse opened with some buoyancy, and
the money article of the Press., says that the news
of Lord Russell being replaced by Lord Clarendon
produced an " excellent effect." This effect, how-
ever,
did not last long, for the Bente, after rising,
Ito 67fr. 40c., closed heavily at 67fr. 25c., with very
little business doing. )(chiller closed 12fr. lower
than the highest price of the day, and with a rise j
'from Saturday of only 2fr. 50c.

The mayors of the department of the Lower
Rhine have nosired each se avertissessese hum their pre•
feat These mien:mien who, it appears, eiaud,46, hip
quantities of hew for the fitruberg brewers, are in the
habit of drying and storing their merehaodne on the lefts
over the school-houses in their respagire sornammea The
smell which proceeds from the hops they Meted is found to
be offensive, as it is unhealthy, as well by the pupils as by
the teachers. The mayors of the Lower Rhine have also
caseated the churches within their jus:slictios into grime
ries, to the great 'medal even el the stolid people who
worship in these edifices. Buts If. leveret expremee a
determination not to tolerate this abase of power, it is net
likely that his subordinates will ovations to transform the
churches and schoolhouses into hop stem.

On the re-assembling of the court this morning
Private June Reynolds was re-called, and in reply to
further gamines from fir A. Honford, the prosecutor,
said that Elerjeant-Major Lan always bore a very good
character. He wee a very *ober man. I never saw him

Oolong Henry Dalrymple White, amisiant &dieted-
general of cavalry, deposed—l knew the bite Sergeant• Major

of the most steady men I e►er met with. The letter pro-
dead is in my handwriting, and I have not the least ob-

accordingly, as follows :

animus until the third or fourth questios, when Colonel
Crawley jumped up and said, I protnst age'net the way
in which Major Swinley is quibblieg with nay
questioss. I appealed for the protection of the
court, and begged that the words Colonel Crawley bad
uttered might be remodel on the proceediegs. The pre-
sident in the most wavy way raid Mist there va4nothing to

Crawley had made via el the very word "protest,' sal

Have you never on any other minim expressed a Amos
feeling of hostility to me private life I have ; in public

iiig any question if you think your answer may criminate

Odom! Crawley then repeated his qnsetion, whether
witmses had not stated to him on one Gentian that he
sever forgave ? In a private couverntion with Calomel
Crawley he sated me that question. I said no, I did ask
Was that remark made in reference to Beguiler Hoban,
who had reprirasedcd the regiment?—lt was made on that
day, but I cannot say it was made in reference to Brigadier
Hotem's remark.

Have I had armies to led fault, and bus not you rev
vented that in the same way'—You have found fault, bat
whether you had caritas to de so 1 cannot say. I
not. I never rcca"rot resetitng any reprimand of yours.

If he wee free from blame, why did you admonish him, r
It appears by this paper (handing it ioj you did!—This
report wee brought to me at my hour by order of Lieut.-

not answer whther Xf4ll. Lilley yrs expeer I to
any indignity during the sergeant-major's anat. I
can only speak from hearsay as to that, there-

been inside the quarters where Sergeant-Major and Mr.

The impulse given to French commerce ami in-
dustry by the abolition of the system of protection ts be-
coming every day more manifest to the manufacturers of
Paris. The exports from the Ist of January to the
Ist of October equal in amount the entire exports for
the year 1862. England and Belgium have particu-
larly contributed to this development of French io-
dust*. England has taken lace, plain aad figured silks,
merinos, articles of ladies' dress, mentelf, ribands. Poen,

that the exports to England this year will amount to
