PARIS, WIDNZEIDAY Enatiza.
The announcement made by all the journals two
or three days ago that the Emperor would be at
St. Cloud by October 4, had every appearance of
authenticity, but it was in all probability but a
jack-o'-lantern started to amuse the public and
bold out the false hope that some decision with re-
gard to Rome would be taken early in next month.
The Pays says to-night that "if the fine weather
should continue" their Majesties may probably
prolong their sojourn at Biarritz till October 14
or 15. The ground here assigned for the court re.
maining longer at the sea-side is an unfortunate
one, for letters from Biarritz state that the wea-
ther there is detestable, and that it is with difficulty
that their Majesties have been able for many
days past to get a walk between the showers.
Accordingly the Bullier's Correspondence tells the
lieges that, the weather having been so bad, the
court will wait a little longer in the hope that it
may mend. Well, either reason is good enough for
the public. The main fact is that whoever else
may be in a hurry to have the Roman question set-
tled, the Emperor is in none.
A oommunication from Biarritz has the following :

A mooned grand ball wee given last week at the Villa
Enginie, and upwards of 200 persons were precast. The
cotillon was conducted by the Marquis de °aux, equerry to
the Emperor. Au innovation has been introduced into the
figure, which is likely to become the rage in the Paris salons
this winter. It consista in offering to the ladies, on inviting
them to the dance, small flags of different colours. As a
' complementary meunre, one of the gentlemen carries &staff
surmounted by ten rihands, also of different colours, the
ends of which are held by the gentlemen and ladles taking
pert in the dance. The supper took plane at 2 o'clock, and
did not terminate until 3. The Emperor was not present,
feeling a little indisposed.

Oilier letters trom Biarritz say that their Ma-
jesties did not go to the last bullfight, but instead
of assigning indisposition as the cause of the Empe-
ror's absence, state that he is very hard at work
just now (completing his history of Julius Caesar,
I suppose), and only allows himself one hour's
recreation in the day. It is rumoured that he was
about to honour M. Fould's country house with a
visit, but that minister is expected in Paris on
Monday next.
M.de la Guerouniere dined yesterday with Count
Walewski, minister of state.
M. Nigra left Paris for Turin this morning. The
necessity of conferring with his government on the
impression produced in Paris by General Du-
rondo's circular is doubtless the reason for this
journey.

The France, without precisely endorsing the
Patrie's assertion that Lord Palmerston sent Gari-
baldi 5,0001. by Dr. Partridge, says that the fact
is now well known that he is a "British agent,"
by which it means to say that bis medical mission
is a pretest, and that he is employed by Lord Pal-
merston to talk politics to the victim of Aspromonte.
No absurdity is now too great for French journal-
ists to propagate about England's motives for sym-
pathising with Italy. Bullier's Correspondence holds
England responsible for the Garibaldian meeting
in Sweden !

At the Bourse the Rente declined in the course
of the morning as much as 15c., but rallied after-
wards, and closed very firm at 69fr. 10c. and
69fr. 15c., with a rise of sc. Mobilier rose
3fr. 75c., and the Italian Loan sc. Railways were
generally lower. Orleans fell sfr., Northern
lfr. 25c., Eastern sfr., and Western 6fr. 25c.
Southern rose 2fr. 50c., and Lyons lfr. 36c.
The Daily News is seised.

GARIBALDI AT SPEZZIA.

A letter from Speasia, dated Sunday last, says :

Mr. Partridge left here this morning, carrying with him
the gratitude and thanks not only of the illustrious patient
whom he has travelled so far to visit, but of all good
Garibaldini, to whom he has brought comfort and hope.
Not only the skill of the English professional man, but
the evident sympathy of the Eoglish gentleman, have
left a deep impression on the general and his friends;
and, lest I should be thought to flatter Mr. Partridge, I
will say that one of the oldest friends and most constant
attendants of Garibaldi, who was with me last night,
expressed these feelings in the strongest terms.
The sympathy of England is, indeed, a great consolation to
the captive, and, though little given to betray his feelings,
he could not help exclaiming yesterday, " The mere sound
of an English voice does me good." " Even Lord Palmer-
ston," said an aide-de-camp to nm, " has exerted himself in
favour of our wounded general." The last report of Mr.
Partridge in decidedly favourable. The patient was on
Friday conveyed into another and better room, and, though
tired with the exertion of moving, yet at night war free
from the suffering which usually wade him at that time.
The uncle and the heel are the seats of these pains, which
have till now much disturbed his sleep. On the whole, there
was nothing to find fault with in the early treatment of the
wound, and Mr. Partridge was especially struck with the
womanly tenderness which the doctors displayed in dram.
leg the ands. Ripari, Albanese, and another doctor—pri-
soners—watch constantly day and night by their general's
bed. Prangina, who stays at the hotel here, skits the pa.
tient twice a day, sod should it be necenery to use the
knife for the enlargement of the wound—which is probable
—the operation will be performed by Zannetti, of Florence,
whom I have ascertained from resident English and others
to be • first-rate surgeon. Water-beds, slings, and vari-
ous misotific inventions to relieve the pain of the injured
limb, and at the same time allow the sufferer to change his
position, are on their way from London and Paris. The
appliances of leeches were not excessive, and the only error
seems to have been supposing the ball to have remained in
the wound. It has evidently never traversed the leg at all,
merely struck it, broke the inner ancle, and glanced off.
The general eats very little, and drinks nothing but water;
the English doctor, however, recommended a more generous
diet. The wound in the thigh, of which so much was said,
was only a bruise from a spent ball, and the same was the
case with the injury of Menotti. These were, never-
thekee, sufficiently painful at the time, as many
of your military readers will well know. During
the voyage the sufferings of Garibaldi were very great.
All agree that the convalescence will be an affair of
months, sod Mr. Partridge decidedly declares that to
attempt, under any circumstances, the removal of the
patient would be fatal. So you see, amnesty or trial, poor
Garibaldi is sentenced to four or five months' impremsoment
perhaps the greatest punishment that could be inflicted on
that active, eager spirit.
A curious instance of his stoical bearing of bodily pain
was given when Zannetti first probed the wound. The sur-
geon knew that the agony. must be intense, but the patient
i did not move a muscle. . Does it not hurt you, general r
' asked Zannetti. "Intensely," replied Gsribaldr, almost
smiling, and the operator was forced to ask him to show
by some expression of his face where the severest pain
really was. Generally, be lies perfectly tranquil, speaking
but little. I fear the ad story of his desire to perish by
his owe hand on the bill of Aapromonte rather than be
, taken prisoner is true, and this is why I have come to the
melancholy conclusion : In telling the following story,
1 worthy of the pages of Tacitus or the vivid records of
Plutarch, I must inform your readers that I "nothing ex-
, Urinate," nor do I add one syllable to the words which,
a few hours three, fell from the lips of the soldier to
whom Garibaldi had revealed the mans of his heart. It
was evalostakiiderhea wounded general, after a dayff reet
NMI", into a Mod
i Lir One attendant alone was in the room—a tried and
faithful friend, who had followed the fortunes of Garibaldi
' I from the walis of Rome to the tanks of the Volturno.
' After a silence of some time, the general suddenly raised
himself, and beckoned to the watching aidedetainp.
" Mio are," said he, " I have never yet asked
use favour of the King. I think I will now do
I so." The aide-de-eamp approached, expecting an
order to write out some repent. Garibaldi continued, in
the sad, solemn tones which are habitual to him when
speaking earnestly : " I will beg to be shot ! Living, lam
an impediment to Italy, a terror to the man who rules over
the French, and a clog on the progress of Italian unity.
Were I dead, Napoleon might leave Rome without injury
to his ealleateem, Italy might then be use, and by my
death I 'ball have completed the labour of my life." I lea,.
your readers to imam' the effect that this dedipskm,
made In the most simple manner, had on the solitary
' listener.

THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION.

Another slack day yesterday at South Kensing-
ton, although with considerable help from various
parts of the country. On passing through Waterloo-
road shortly after noon, we witnessed quite an ex-
citing scene at the terminus of the South Western
Railway. A train bad just come in laden with
Hampshire excursionists for the Exhibition, and
the passengers rushed, with their traditional county
vigour, out in a body to the road, where they took
forcible possession of every cab and omnibus they
could lay hands on. Having filled everything
vehicular inside and out, they started all off toge-
ther in a cavalcade, cheering and shouting in the
most hilarious fashion as they drove along. A
similar excitement and crowd may often be noticed
at the corner of the Cromwell-road, but it must not
all be set down to the Exhibition. The place is a
favourite lounge with idlers, who assemble there
for the purpose of watching females ascend-
ing and descending the tope of the 'buses,
the latter • practice of which it may fairly
be said that it would be more honoured in the
breach than the observance • but a much larger
portion of the crowd is attracted by the Kensington
Museum, an exhibition which has had a, more de-
pressing influence on the foetunee of its leviathan
neighbour than many persons would be inclined to
believe. Very nearly a million of persons have
visited the museum since the lat of May, nearly all
of whom would have paid second visits to the Great
Exhibition but for the rival attraction. All the
service of cabs and omnibuses that was established
for the one answered equally well fur the other,
and thus there was a cause of depression existing of
which nobody ever dreamt in 1851.
Two facts were mentioned incidentally yesterday
which were so creditable to the Exhibition, its
managers, and to the public, that we
feel great pleasure in giving them publicity.
One was, that there has not been a single act of
violence committed in the building since the open-
ing ; and the second, that the bad money taken has
been tinder 501., including only one bad half-
sovereign.
Earl Granville having left town to attend upon
her Majesty, the cares of Exhibition administra-
tion have devolved almost entirely on Sir Went-
worth Dilke and Mr. Sandford, both of whom are
indefatigable in their attendance.
The Ist of October will witness a further change
in the hours of closing and opening the Exhibition.
From that date the doors will open at 9.30, and
close at 5.30, excepting Saturdays, when the hour
of opening will be 11 o'clock.
The following is the list of schools, dm, visiting
the Exhibition :—Rotherbithe National and Charity
Schools, 86, expenses paid by Sir W. and Lady
Gomm ; Watford, Herter, British School", 47, sub-
scription ; Winkfield, Berke, Free Schools, 22,

expense of Mr. C. S. Maitland. It should have
been Mr. Charles Swaislaud.
