EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

PARIS, Toni)As livisneo.

On the occasion of the lice of the King of Prussia,
M. Viebahn, privy councillor and chief of the Prus-
sian commission at the Exhibition, organised a grand
banquet. Ths banquet was presided over by M. de
Rosenberg, the Prussian chargé d'affaires, in the
absence of M. de Mastoid. Among the toasts given
were of muse those of the King of Prussia and
the Royal family, but it is reported that that of the
Emperor of the French was forgotten.
The Constitutiumeel has been compelled by M.
Collet Meygret to contradict it. allegations relative
to the minion of M. Prokeich-Osten. In certain

circles it is feared that those statements were made in
order to deceive England u to the real purpose of
the visit of M. Prokesch-Osten to Paris; and there
were, it is believed, conferences between the Emperor
and his visitor which would not perhaps be quite
agreeable to England.
The fête offered to his Royal Highness Prince
Napoleon and the Imperial Commission of the Exhi-
bition by the exhibitors took place yesterday evening
in the saloons of the Hotel du Louvre. The Patric,
after describing at length this new and magnificent
building, says:

Mapes. their Eminencies the Ministers of State, Film-
en, Agriculture, and Commerce, the Pretest of the Seine,
the Prefect of Pollee, Es. The Me was opened with a can-
tata is honour of Industry, the mule of which was com-
posed by M. Amber, and the words by M. H. Trianon,
and whisk was sang by M. Rogue, of the Imperial Academy
of Rule, with indeeoribable animation and forces. The
voice of the artist, sonorous and thrilling, was several times
drowned with bravos, sad he was sailed upon to repeat the
two Mowing couplets :

distinguished themselves by their lively demonstra-
tions of joy, and clinked their glasses against those

ROME, Ocr, 10.

The anxiety and uneasiness which iniariably so-
company uncertainty in future prospects just now
agitate alike the Romans and their ecclesiastical
rulers. Liberals and Papalasi look forward with
equal hope and fear to some impending change in
the system of government, and either party seems to
have adopted for its motto " Mihi ours faturi." The
circumstance of either party's being perfectly power-
less with respect to the guidance or regulation of this
eventful future does not render the question leas
interesting, and all eyes are directed towards France,
in the expectation of some practical result growing
out of the openly expressed opinion of the allied go-
vernments, or the realisation—better late than

—of the se ntiosents concerning the Roman states
oonveyed in the Emperor Napoleon's celebrated letter
to Edgar Noy. What this change may be, or when
exactly it may be expected, it is difficult to say, but
it is certain that the Emperor does not forget a plan
which he has once decided on ; and it is equally cur-
tain that the reports he is continually receiving re-
specting
the ecclesiastical system of government are
not such as to weaken his resolution. If rumour
Ispsahs truly, the noble Roman families who have vi-
sited Paris this summer have noL been more indulgent,
to the failings of the Papal regime, in their accounts,'
of sayings and doings at Rome, than their plebeian or
l
republican countrymen, and altogether the mass of
evidence collected is such as to warrant the authori-
tative interference of that power whose bayonets re-
instated the Pope on his throne, and have upheld
him on it for the last six years. Whether this in-
terference take place immediately, or whether it will
be made subsequent to the conclusion of the war and
consequent on other European changes, is the ques-
tion which racks both the government and the
of this country. The tenacity with which the
elastics cling to their temporal power is ludicrously
shown up in a pasquinade which has been going the
round of Rome, to the great amusement of the people,
intimating that, in consequence of the allied govern-
ments having come to a determination to work an
entire change in the administraion of the Roman
states, the French general had waited upon the Pops
and informed him that it had become absolutely
necessary to separate the spiritual from the temporal
dominion. His Holiness is represented as answering,
"We fully concur in the necessity of the separation
you allude to, for the experience of many painful
circumstances has convinced us of the impossibility
of wielding two such weighty sceptres at once; we
therefore cheerfully resign our spiritual authority
into your hands, Signor Generale, and shall merely
reserve the temporal dominion for ourselves!"
Cardinal Antonelli evidently does not consider this
dominion in any immediate danger, for he has just
forwarded instructions to one of his agents at Paris
to purchase a magnificent crystal service for a
hundred persons, for his use as prefect of the Aposto-
lic Palaces.
Prince Torlonia has just returned from Paris. It
appears that all hie efforts to gain a renewal of the
salt and tobacco monopoly, even in combination with
a loan, will prove (runlets, in consequence of Auto-
nines resolving to get so lucrative an affair into his
own bands, under pretence of making government a
gainer. No one, however, will boy the shares, now
brought into the market, on account of the distrust
produced by the shareholders not having the right
to look into the accounts of the administration. To
Priem Torlonia the cessation of the right of mono-
poly will be a loss of more than threw hundred thou-
sand scadi a year.
I am sorry, for the correctness of Mr. Bowyer's
statement in parliament that brigandage was en-
tirely extirpated in the Roman states, to have to
inform you that the diligence from Rome to Porto
d'Anzio was stopped by seven brigands armed with
muskets and poignarda, in the forest of Nettuso,
at about two o'clock in the afternoon of the bth inst.
Fortunately, the vehicles, for there were two, were
empty, there being no steamer from Porto d'Anzio''
that day, but the drivers were despoiled of the little
money they had, and the robbers were so provoked at
the slenderness of the booty that they cut and hacked
the harness to pieces.
A more audacious robbery took place three days
ago at Velletri. The monde di pieta, situated in the
centre of the town, was broken into during the night,
and valuables, consisting chiefly of jewels and gold,
were abstracted to the amount of thirty thousand
*midi (6,6ool.),although there were sentries in the im-
mediate vicinity, part of the same building being used
as a prison.
The parting blows of the cholera seem to be
directed against the corps diplomatiges in this city.
The Marquis of San Giuliano, Neapolitan Chargé
d'Affaires, fell a victim to the malady yesterday morn-
ing at the Palazzo Farcese.
