EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

PARIS, MONDAY EVENTNO.

It is confirmed that General Forey, with his
staff, has left Paris for Cherbourg, to embark for
Mexico. He will not go out in the Normandie
with Admiral Jurien de Gravibre, but in the
Turenne, which sails a few days later. Prince
William of Baden accompanies the general in the
quality of aide-de-camp. A letter from Orizaba in
the Patrie states that on June 13 the rumours of
an attack, noticed by General de Lorencez's de-
spatch in the Moniker, had frightened a great
many families, who were in consequence about to
leave the city, and to retire to Cordova. The
French officers had endeavoured to calm their fears,
and had assured them that if the Mexican army
should bombard the city they should be warned
in time and sent to Cordova under escort. A re-
connoissance, made on the 14th, ascertained that
Juarez's army was making no preparations
for the expected assault. There is news which
entirely concords with probability that Juarez has
given orders to General Zaragoza not to attack the
French in their strong position at Orizaba.
Contrary to other intelligence, the Prase says
that Admiral de la Gravihre will not go out till
eight or ten days after General Forey. The exact
truth is purposely mystified, but it is plain that
the expedition is hurried and will sail with all
practicable speed.
The Emperor has given an order to the venerable
M. Ingres, the great painter and newly-created
senator, for a fancy portrait of Julius Caesar, to be
engraved and placed at the head of the historical
work which his Majesty has been so long writing,
and is now about to publish.
We learn by telegraph that not General Cialdini,
Baron Ricasoli, or any other personage hitherto on
the Lapis, has been selected for the first Italian
ambassador to St. Petersburg, but General Hector
Gerbaix de Sonnaz—a name not recently before
the public. He is a very old officer, and took a
prominent part in the campaign of 1848.
Whether Chiavone, one of the moat eminent
brigand leaders in the south of Italy, whose many
depredations have been encouraged directly by
subventions from the desperate dethroned monarch,
Francis IL, and indirectly by the occupation of
Rome by Napoleon 111., is dead or not, has been
a moot question in various continental journals for
the last month. A correspondence from Rome,
dated July 15, in the Temps of this evening,
repeats as certainly true, " save in the case of un-
looked for, improbable, and almost impossible news
to the contrary" (a very valuable form this of a
saving clause as to a matter of fact), that Chiavone
and two of his lieutenants were shot by a brother
brigand, Tristany, after the form of a court-martial
had been gone through. Chiavone, who had scarcely
time allowed him to count his beads, died loudly
cursing Gen. Ulloa, the man who calla himself Minis-
ter at War to the King of Naples. All this news was
given substantially a long time ago, and I see
nothing in the narrative of the Temps to counteract
the presumption that it would by this time have
been confirmed beyond all doubt, had it been true.
The Bourse was without any noticeable feature
whatever, and there is scarcely a fractional change
in quotations.

A French officer of the Mexican expedition
writes from Orizaba :—" The heat ou the coast is over-
whelming, but here it is hardly perceptible. On theme high
plateaux it is neither hot nor cold, the climate being Dearly
analogous to that of France. The vegetation of the country
in, however, of quite a different character. The plants are
those of the tropics ; the woods are tilled with birds, parti-
cularly parrots, in every variety of colour. Everything is
abundant in this country, and the products of the live parts
of the world may be gathered without any difficulty. In
the woods around Orizaba are plenty of game and wild
beasts. I killed two jaguars the other day. The streams,
rivers, prairies, and savannahs are full of crocodiles and
amphibious serpents. Thews animals might be easily bunted,
but severe orders are issued forbidding anyone to leave the
camp. We are still at Orizaba, and for the moment con-
demned to inaction." _

M. Horace Vernet has just arrived in Paris from
his chate►u at the Isles of Ily arm. M. Vernet was born in
the year 1789, and is consequently now in his sevesty.thad
year, " but is still (says Golignani) as active and wont as •
young man."
