EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(11011 OVA OWN C0111111PONDIINT.)
PARIS, MONDAY STUDIO.
It appears from a leading article in the Cbsstile-
rim's', that the Exhibition of cheap articles which
has lately attracted so much attention in the special
gallery devoted to that purpose in the Pakis de
L'lndustrie, is to be perpetual. The Prince Napoleon
will contribute to the preliminary expenses, and in
order that no doubt may be entertained that the low
prices affixed are really those at which the goods
can be sold, it has been determined, after a good
deal of hesitation, that the Exhibition shall
not only be a spectacle, but a bazaar, and
that any one shall have the right at once to buy the
article to which he may take a fancy. It remains to
be seen how far the bazaar, with a new name, will
practically differ from say other, for the Constitu-
tionnal represents the idea as one of leading import-
ance, and a striking manifestation of the democratic
principle which.is at the bottom of Imperial institu-
tions.
While the Itulependance Bilge announoes that, owl') g
to mutual oonesesions, and the good dikes of France
and England, the difference between Piedmont and
Tuscany is on the eve of a settlement, a correspondent
' of the Constitusgionnel, writing from Turin on Nov. 8,
says that all tile attempts at an arrangement have been
hitherto unsuccessful. The Piedmontese Cabinet
, &els that it owes it to the Constitutional Govern-

meat of a country in which the parliament, the
press, and public opinion are to be attended to, not
'to give way upon a question in regard to which
public opinion in all Italy, Tuscany included, is
against the Grand Duke.
The first detachment of the gendarmerie of the

Imperial Guard that has returned from the Crimea
arrived in Paris to-day. The forte, numbering
about 300 men, marched along the Boulevards, dis-
playing its tattered colours, and was loudly cheered
along the route. The men looked mucklatigued.
They proceeded to the Tuileries, where they were
inspected by the Emperor.
Collignon, the wretched hackney coachman, who
murdered his fare because he was ordered by the
police to return an overcharge of 2fr., was to-day
sentenced to death.

At the Bourse, the Rents, which scarcely varied
100. during the greater part of the day, was in
demand during the last half-hour, and rose 25c.,
dosing at 64fr. 95c. Credit Mobilier rose 13fr. 750-
Railways were in some demand in the afternoon, and
several lines rose from sfr. to 10fr. Austrian rose
sfr. Bank of France fell sfr. It was announced to-
day that no less than six ages. de change
had sold their ports at the average price
of 1,550,000 fr. each. These sales were forced on ac-
count of the difficulties in which the parties found
themselves. It is thought certain that the measure
long threatened by government of increasing the
number of agate de change will be carried into effect
forthwith. It was confidently stated to-day that no
lees than twelve new brokers would be authorised to
commence business on January 5 next.
The Duke of Cambridge is expected at the British
embassy to-morrow evening.
General Bosquet on arriving at Pau received a
magnificent ovation. A great number of persona en
foot, on horseback, and in carriages went out to seed
him, and amongst them were most of the English to-
sidetts. In passing through the town to the Hotel
Saintaraille, where apartments were prepared for him,
loud cries of " Viva le General Bosquet r were
raised. The garden of the hotel was filled with
persona who received the General with acclamations.
The General presented himself on the balcony, ac-
companied by.his mother, and he embraced her, u if
to indicate that he gave to her the homage presented
to him. The Philharmonic Society afterwards gave a
serenade to the General, and in the evening many
houses, especially in the street occupied by his family,
ware illuminated. The town of Pan intends to pre-
sent hint with a sword of honour.

THE FLOATING

The Moniteur of yesterday opens with an essay,
in large type, on the merits of the new floating
batteries. The invention of these new engines of
war is ascribed immediately to the Emperor.
His Majesty, whom previous studies had made
familiar with questions connected with the use of
artillery, had from the first seen that the Russian
admirals might refuse to leave their fortified ports
in the Baltic and Black Sea, and that in that case to
attack the forts with valuable ships would be most
unwise. Hie orders on this point were emphatic. The
Emperor's expectations were realised, and his Ma-
jesty then considered how a marine siege train, so to
speak, might be formed, ordinary ships being con-
structed merely to fight with other ships, while it

was desired to find a vessel with which forts of ma-
sonry or earth might be successfully assailed. The
Emperor's aim was to.find out a way of constructing
ships which should be cheaper and more easily end
promptly built than ships of the line, drawing little
water, capable of being served by a smaller
crew, and covered with an armour, against
which hollow shot fired from Paixhan's gads
should be broken like glue. Experiments were
made at Vincennes on the required strength in the
defensive iron plates, and the necessary thickness
having been ascertained. the Emperor drew the plan
of the new engine, as it now exists, with a single tier
of guns, its external covering defying alike solid or
hollow cold or red-hot shot, and gave it the name of
" floating battery," to indicate that it was not a ship
built to pursue or avoid an enemy, but a veritable
siege battery, capable of attacking with energy and
persistence fortifications heretofore regarded as unas-
sailable by sea.

"Ae s 000," says the official writer, "u the preli-
minary artillery trials had Ibsen made, and
before the plan had been actually wrought out,
the Emperor lost no time in transmitting the
result to our faithful and great ally. Compe-

tent judges, men of knowledge and experience,
expressed some surprise, for the problem had been
regarded es insoluble ; but the trials made in Eng-
land confirmed those made in France, and the two
governments resolved each to construct a certain
number of these floating batteries, which have just
been employed for the first time at 'tinhorn. The
projectiles which have struck them, although of
great dimensions, have not been able to penetrate or
damage their surface; while the floating batteries
have opened practicable breaches in walls
of masonry. Tens not only have they an-
nulled the properties of Paixhan's shells, which

produced effects to disastrous at Sinop., but experi-
ments prove that they are proof against solid shot.
Our navy and that of our allies sow know the pro.
parties of this new engine of war, and will be able to
make a very good use of it. The Emperor had pre-
viously given France a field artillery, which did good
service at Alma, Inkermann, and Traktir; he has
now given to the navy an arm altogether new, the
power of which the future will reveal."

The Pays states that a new American Ambaseadoe
has arrived at Athens with the mission of parahasing one
of the principal islands of the Greeien Arebipelego, end
that be has paid a visit attended with mach poop, to the
Meister of Russia.
