This rectification, it will be observed, rectifies
nothing. The main fact is toonstorious to be denied,
and the explanation attempted is unintelligible.
Ministerial Councils, presided by the President of
the Republic, are now frequent and protracted. By
a recent order ministers are obliged to amemble at
St. Cloud on council days at nine instead of ten in
the morning. When no important measure has been
taken for some time, it is commonly said of the Pre-
sident by the people, of the Boone it more, and at
such periods conjecture is always fertile in suggest-
ing something that he mast be hatching. A rumour
is current that a conversion of the Four-and-a-Half
per Cents. into Threes may be expected, but I can-
not find that it rests upon any more solid foun-
dation than the fact that the syndic of the
Bourse has been sent for to confer with
the Prince, the Minister of State, and the
Minister of Finance. Another report is that Dr.
Veron's plan of enlarging the girdle of the octroi har-
riers so as to comprise the banlieste, and greatly
diminishing the &tie', u about to be carried into
elect. Magnificent schemes for the embellishmat
of Paris are also talked of. Timorous men who are
guided by stale rules of economy, have been startled
by the suggestion, from a high official quartet., that
now is the time for the city of Paris to speculate
boldly upon the coming era of prosperity, and by a
gigantic loan of 500 millions of franc to •
a course of public works surpaseing in air his-
mensity the wildest dreams of tho imeginades. I
mention these as existing rumours, whisk anapy
men's minds in the absence of any positive news.
he inclination of my opinion wouM be that Louie
Napoleon is not likely to promote any measure
Ipillictrat raise grave finaticMl objections before the
Hon of the empire.

been made. The details of these ncgociatioos will
probably be brought before the Houses of Portia-
meat niter tfir Henry's return to England.
The permission for !miens to exercise divine wor-
ship in Rome seeordiag to the Week rite, has hoes
refused, upon the plea that no public wore, b
allowed, sets aooording to the Hellish rite, sad Bit
no exception has been or can be made in favour af
any nation.
With respect to the destiny of Edward Murray,
Sir Henry has been able to obtain an assurance that
his life will be spared, and the capital punishment
commuted into perpetual imprisonment, with a fur-
ther probability of subsequent diminution of this
long term. No exertions have availed to procure a
sight of the documents relating to the tnal, which
have been resolutely withheld by the Cardinal Secre-
tary of State.
Such are the principal matters which have been
treated of and such is the result of the discussion.
The mission has not been without a certain degree of
utility, and those who never expected more, knowing
the nature of the country, will not be disappointed
at its being so limited. Sir Henry will leave Rome
for Florence before the end of the week, without
having engaged any palace for his return.
