Accounts from various parte of France speak of
unusually protracted bad weather. A letter from
Bordeaux of the 38th states that • storm had
been raging eine* Sunday, and had done I
much damage, tearing up old trees by the roots, and
carrying away the roots of houses. At ißrest the
tempest on the 24th is described as frightful.
Several ships of war in the harboarsuibrid
The Sated Public of Lyons of the 28th says that the
Rhone, which had begun to sink on Wednesday, roes
again in the night and overflowed itsbaaka. ThePlae•
de la Charlie and many of the low parts of the town
were under water. The Mow/ states that on
INev. 24th a local pilot towed into the port of Saint-
Martin a pert of the after-part of a vessel that had
gone to pieces near the Perthuia.Breton, with
the words "Daphne, London." It was feared that
owing to the bad weather which has prevailed for
several days the crow could not have been saved.

PARIS, SATORDAT lOINIMO. 1
The Mani!~ contains very little additional infor-
mation relative to the vote. It publishes a table of
" definitive results," in which there are a great many
blanks, and it affords no means of calculating the
number of abstentions, because the number of regis-
tered electors is omitted in numerous instances. The
other government journals seem to be in advance of
the official one. The latest returns given by the
Patrie up to six o'clock this evening, state that the
somplete results of 78 departments are known as
well as partial results for 8 others, and of the votes
of the army and navy. These give 7,711,440 yes,
and there are only 235,881 noes. Thus the majority
of December 1851 is already exceeded.
The following programme of the coming empire,
contained in to-day's Monitessr, is entitled to atten-
tion, as an exposition from the very best source of
the phases of the 'dee Napoliontetine, which are at
present desired to be exhibited to the world :
France is giving to the world a magnificent spectacle. It
is a noble sight to behold the whole of a great people, aid.
I mated by the same sentiment, assemble peacefully on every
point of the country, and declare its will, with that dignity
and that resolution which befit its sovereign independence.
Nothing is more admirable than the readiness of these
populations, braving the rain, which tell in torrents, to de.
posit their vote ; nothing is more touching than the de-
votedness of thew noble relics of our armies, of these infirm
and paralytic men who get themselves carried to the poll.
Three times in four years Franco has been coavoked to
this imposing solemnity, and each time she has thought fit
to give to the head of the state testimonies of a warmer
affection and a more entire couldsom. At present she
gem to the farthest point by decreeing to him the empire.
Num the commencement of the century, the nation had not
been called upon to deliberate on its form of government:
it now hue decided with full knowledge of what it is doing.
Rimbaud by a new and last experiment of the deceitful
hopes with which it bad been led away, the people has
made use of the very instrument which the republic had
placed in its hands to overturn it—universal suffrage has
destroyed the republic. It could not be otherwise. Nothing
is septet es the good sense of • whole people, nothing is so
powerful as it. will. Consulted on its real interests, it can-
not make a mistake respecting them, and, conscious of its
force, it coon sets aside what is contrary to them, in order to
substitute what may serve them best. France has soon con-
viand herislf that a nation of 36 millions of men, with
IS. helmets, so numerous and so different, with its habits
sod oseessm, with its place in the world, could not endure
the agitations, uncertainties, and dangers of the republicin
government, nd it is for that reason that it has decided,
without rooks and without recrimination, but with an
via MIA en admirable unanimity, that it will
by a sigh man; sad, in order to be protected
stansa, it will make that government hereditary.

It has been remarked that numbers of the govern-
ment placards relative to the vote on the plebiscite have
been torn and defaced. In order to remove the impres-
sion that political feeling his anything to do with this
mutilation, the blame is thrown upon the chips-
Niers, who, it is said, strip the walls to fill their
baskets with waste paper. If this be so, it is singu-
lar that they should -show a predilection for official
stationery, and leave private placard, unmolested.
However, the Pays says that several chifonniere
have been arrested upon this charge.

. The day before yesterday the Prince President
'received at Saint Cloud a delegation of the Central
Committee of Artists. M. Van Tense, the president
of the delegate., addressed the Primes, thanking him
for the protection and encouragement that he had
given to the arts, and informing him that the Central
Committee had desired the delegates to solicit from
his Imperial Highness the organisation of a special
exhibition of the works of industrial artists, the
erection of a museum of the Beaux-Arts Industriels,
and the foundation of a central school of the Beaux-
Arta, as applied to manufactures. The Prince con-
versed with the delegates on the different points
connected with their application, and M. J. Dieterle
having explained to his Imperial Highness the
equivocal position in which an artist might
find himself—a statuary, for instance, who
should make a candelabra—from his work being
refused at the Louvre, on the. pretext that it be-
longed to the class of manufactures, and at the Fah&
bition of Industry, on the pretext that it helots:to
the arts, adding that the artist not being
oommunioation with the public, could with dilleally
be penetrated with the true feeling of which he
should be the representative, the Prince said, " Yee,
as in the cue of journalism, which should not sh
tempt to create public opinion, but to be its oche
M. Van Tenac having alluded to the wish of the
central committee to enrich the churches gratuitomte
with paintings, sculptures, &c., the Prince inquitell
by what means this was to be done, and was
answered, "By means of a lottery of from six ID
eight millions of fiance His imperial highness NMI
that doubts of the propriety of that course might be
entertained from what had taken place with pre.
ceding lotteries, but M. Van Tense entered into ex-
planations to show that there could be no abuses in
the plan proposed, and presented to the Prince a note
which had been drawn up on this subject. The
delegates then withdrew.
The municipal commission of Paris held an extra-
ordinary sitting yesterday. By way of commemo-
rating the imperial plebiscite, the commission voted
a sum of 160,000 E, to be distributed in charity as
follows; 38,000 f. for redeeming mattresses pledged
at the Mont de Piete; 18,000 f. for redeeming
blankets; 66,crikf for paying half of the sum due
by poor persons to the Establishment of Nurses for
the care of their children • and 40,000 f. for the pur-
chase of clothes for children frequenting pauper
schools. At this sitting it was decided to continue the
arcades in the new Rue de Riven as far as the Rue
des Poulin. This plan was originally re-
jected, partly on the score of economy, and
part]
rciiesbecause many of the inhabitants thought
prejudicial to the business of shops. Economy,
however, is no longer the order of the day, and it
was urged that the same reason which exists for
desiring a uniform style of architecture opposite to
the Tuileries applies with equal force to the whole
line of street parallel with the Louvre. Three now
houses, just completed, with a profusion of meretri-
cious ornamentation, at the corner of the Place de
Palais Royal, have been found to look so grotesque
that orders have been given to pull them down.
Credits were voted for several other metropo•
titan improvements, and amongst them a sup-
plemental credit of 650,000 f. for works con-
nected with the making of the Boulevard Maus
and the Rue Bonaparte. The question of the legacy
of the Chateau of St. Ouen by the Countess du Cayla
was brought forward. This chateau was given to
the Countess by Louis XVIII., and was to revert to
the Count de Chambord, but as the Bourbons have
no right to hold property in France, the city has ac-
cepted the legacy.
A paragraph from the Journal d'Amrera, pub-
lished by the Patric, stated that M. Cremieux had
been arrested at Lierre while travelling with a false
passport. M. Cremieux is all tho time practising at
the bar in Paris. He has summoned the Patric
before the Tribunal of Correctional Police to answer
for the publication of the article.
