PARIS, TIMRIDAT Evaturro.
1 interned you yesterday that the Orleans affair
had been decided in the meta*. du ewstentatar of the
Ceased Etat by a majority of 9 against Bin favour
of the government. One member of the section,
which consista of 1; councillors of state, was lament.
Of the 16 remaining, 8 voted against 8. The vise-
president of the Council of State, M. Baroche, who
gave the costing vote in favour of the go-1
vernineut. Thu 8 committees who voted in favour of
the rights of the house of Orleans were MM. Mill-
iard, Sumo, Marchand, Tosmagin, Cornudet, Volley,
Bendel, and Allard. Each of these gentlemen held
office mlti. Louis Philippe. M. Maallard was then
kresident of a section of the Council of State; M.
Sulu, advocate-general; Marchand, councillor of
state; Tuunuigio, prefect and councillor of state.;
Cornudet, maitre de reveetes ; Vuitry, chef de
cabinet of M. Martin du Nord, when the
latter was minister of justice ; Boudet, secre-
tary-general of the ministry of justice; Allard
ruse rapidly through the various of his pro-
tession, as a military engineer, unTeardtrie ministry of
M. Ouitiot. It is curious to note that the two coun-
cillors who insisted with greatest vehemence iu favour
of the decree of Jan. 22 are two ex-republicans, MM.
Quentin Bauchart and Boulatignier. The latter was
maitre de refuters under Louis Philippe. M. Quentin
Beechen was oue of the six ordinary members of the
Section dm (univalves, and the only one who held
,no office under the monarchy of July. Yon are
already aware that the remaining members of the
I section appointed for this special matter were sup-
, plied by the remaining sections of the Conseil d'Etat,
each of which named one. Thus the com-
petence of the ordinary tribunals to decide
questions touching the property of the Orleans
family confiscated by the decree of Jan. 22
that is, the estates comprised in the donation of
Aug. 7, 1830, has been formally denied by the
Council of State. But I hear that the Orleans
princes are prepared to plead the merits of the ques-
tion befor the Council of State, by introducing a fresh
instance an soon as the decision on the arret de emettit
shall have been rendered public. Thus, the Council
of State will be called upon to decide what part of the
Orleans property falls under the application of the
decree of Jan. 22, and what escapes the edict of
confiscation.

Of the increasing opposition in the Corps Legiidatif
you may judge by the fact that, out of 14 members
chosen oa the committee for the examination of the
sumptuary laws, the nine following are totally
opposed to those laws :—The Duke d'Uzes, the Duke
d Albufera, Baron do Hussite's, Baron de Baninel,
M. Aim), M. ilallez-Claparkle, M. Boisey d'Anglas,
Coant Frederic de Lagrange, and M. Desmaronx de
°salmis.

Of the. remaining members one, M. Favert, is op-
posed to the tax on the transmission of real pro-
perty. Yet the government holds this resistance on
the part of the legislature so cheap that it has abso-
lutely set about the registration of private carriages,
just as if the carriage tax had been already voted.
Nov is this the only instance in which it has pro-
ceeded to carry the preliminaries of bills into execu-
tion, as if they were already past. You are aware
that the state is about to make an exchange with the
city of Paris, according to which the municipality is
to take possession of the Bois de Boulogne. A bill
will have to be presented to the Corps Legislatif for
the effectuation of this exchange. Yet the operations
contemplated by the government have been already
set about as if the bill had been already passed.
To-day the committee on the new taxes constituted
itself. M. Horsy d'Anglas was chosen president,
and M. Frederick de Lagrange secretary. Both are
opposed to the bills.
The Pays announces to-day that there will take
place after the close of the present melon an extra-
ordinary suasion of the Corps Legislatif for voting
railway bills and other laws considered urgent by
the government. I understand that no official de-
cision has been yet taken on this subject, although
such a supplement to the legislative labrn of the
year is highly probable. The 10th of Jul
as the date on which the ex ses-
sion will tarminate. The President is ex gly
pertinacious in his will that all the bills presented to
the Corps Lesislatif should be jpassed before the de-
puties leave Paris ; but he insists particularly on the
enactment of the railway bills, and wishes to urge
en thews works with all possible energy.
Once more the President's tourney to the south is a
topic of diminution. The Prince will proceed from
Bordeaux to Cette, passing through Toulouse. After
the races of Moulins, when he is expected, the Pre-
sident will pay, it is thought, a visit to the waters of
Vichy.
M. end Madame de Parley gave last night a
brilliant reception at the =Wry of the interior.
I mentioned yesterday that a bill was in
hen for altering the law respecting juries. %Welt
ject of the change, as might have been anticipated, is
to break dews the securities against an unjust err
damnation with which an accused party is sur-
rounded by the existing law. As it is, the chrism
of a prisoner against the public prosecutor sterol!
enough. The jury list is veep restricted. In the row
try juries are empanelled with Ildetable fairer& lbeit

are tried, the system is sr k the
