EXPRESS FROM PARIS.
THE FRENCH PRESS AND LORD PALMER-
STONE SPEECH UPON ITALY.
THE "COTILLON " RIOTS.

(vim( OCR owl

PARIS, TEWHAIDAT Eviento.
The Constitutionnel has a stately article by its
editor in chief, M. Paulin Limayrac, in which the
dissatisfaction with Lord Palinenston's speech on
Italy, which has been muttered by the other go-
vernment organs, is expressed with greater solem-
nity and amplification. The writer describes the
English prime minister and his colleagues as
"political amateurs," wh6 "play with the surface
of the question and do not see the bottom of It."
At the same time, M. Limayrse woubl. have been
magnanimous enough not to have refuted Lord
Palmerston if he had been content with addressing
arguments to the present generation, and had not
appealed to posterity. There M. Paulin Linsayree
draws the line—there is the boundary of his pa-

Comm ; he would feel silence, under such aggra-
vating circumstances, to be a crime, and he will
not allow posterity to be misled by an English
minister. After an exordium to this pompous
effect—and of which in my abridgment I have but
very slightly changed the wording—he plays
off the favourite card of the lonian Islands,
to which I will not follow suit, because

I regard it as a " revoke." Indeed, some lines
further down the writer admits that the argument,
which it seems ho could not help using in the hope
of creating a prejudice, has nothing to do with the
question, " became one wrong does not justify
another." Then he momentarily awakens attention

by promising to " explain " why, in spite of the
blind obstinacy of the Pope's councillors, the
French army is still in Rome. But this " explana-
tion " turns out to be merely a draft upon posterity

--a meaty of credit which he co much deprecated

meting took place at the trial. It is, however,
very obvious that the excuse of " public
morality" was a humbug. The notorious fact that
some of the actresses were mistresses of the heavy
swells) who kicked up the row at the theatre
need not have been introduced into a discussion
as to what took place before and not behind the
curtain—or if alluded to need not have shocked
the mod squeamish delicacy. The true resins for
the nacres}, required must have been of a political
character, and I am now inclined to believe what
I did not before, that Count de Moray, whose
aspirations to fame as a dramatic author are more
persevering than suooessful, must have had a
hand in the piece that was hissed. The great
question for the justice of the peace was whether
the various degrees of delinquency proved against
the noble defendants merited a fine of
llfr. or 15fr., and Ihave no doubt that he exercised
the discretion which the law allows him within the
limit of 4fr. with commendable judgment. The
result was as follows :--The Tribunal decided that
the charge was not proved against the Marquis de
Saint-Sauveur, Count de Cornelissen, and M. de
Tiaset, who were accordingly acquitted, but that it
was proved against the Count de Grammont-Cade-
rousse and M. Doulet, who were respectively fined
IMr. and llfr. Viscount de Merlemont, Count
Pozzo di Borgo, M. de Boissy-Roger, the Marquis
de Beagles, Count Maurice de Rochefort, and
Paupelin were acquitted, whilst M. Liestert, Count
d'Estourmel, and M. de Saint-Maurice (by default)
were condemned to pay a tine of 15fr. each, M.
Tastet llfr., and all conjointly to the expenses.
Count de Grammont-Caderowee (now called intim
legal journals Count and not Duke) was condemned
principally because on his own admission he was
" horribly bored" at the theatre ou the first night,
and therefore the presumption was that when he
went a second time it must have been on purpose to
kick up a row.
The Voluntaires, so long in preparation at the
Porte St. Martin, continues to be put off from day
to day.
The fall in the Route has made further progress.
The last prices to-day were 70fr. 25c., and 70fr.
35c., being a decline of 15c. for cash, and sc. foe
account. In Mobilise there was no change. The
Italian Loan rose 20c. Railways were rather firm.

on the part of Lord Palmerston. " Hereafter" we
are asked to believe, on the strength of M. Limey-
rac's assertion, "the long recital of the inexhaust-
ible patience of France during the negotiations
with Rome of the last ten years will form one of

the finest pages in her anni:ls." Then follows the
consecrated gag that, because the Emperor,
having well understood reasons for giving
employment to his vast army, gained the battles
of Magenta and Solferino, it is impertinence
in any other nation to express an opinion on Italian
affairs. The Patric, however, which represents a
