Just at the moment when the Belgian journals
affirm more positively than ever that the interview
between the French and Austrian Emperors is en.
tirely arranged, and mention a great many subsidiary
facts in support of their assertions, the It/OW~
comes out with a plump contradiction of the whole
story, which, it say., is " without foundation." It
doss not follow, however, from this, that the Em-
peror Louis Napoleon may sots° to visit the Chateau
Annenberg, where he was brought op. There is
no denial of the positive statement that Count
Baciocchi has gone to prepare apartments for him at
Bregena.
The Ifonifeur informs as that the regency biU
(whatever it may now be, since amendments have
perhaps been introduced) was unanimously voted by
the Senate yesterday. It appears, however, that the
sitting lasted during the extraordinary period of five
hours, and that some twenty or thirty senators made
speeches. Considering that, if we are to judge of
their opinions by their votes, they were all agreed,
it is difficult to imagine what they could have found
to talk about, of sufficient importance to detain them
in the Luxembourg Palace long after their dinner
hoar.

A letter from Turin, of July 6, received in Ps•is
to-day, states that in consequence of the critical
state of affairs in Parma, Lord Normanby had gone
there from Florence, sad had already had several
interviews with the Marquis of Pallavicino, Minister
of Foreign Affairs, with the Austrian General Count
Crenneville, and with the Duchess herself.
The Bonne has been very dull, and the Rents is
again lower. The closing prices were 71tr. 200. for
cash, and 71fr. 600. for account, the fall being 60. and
10e. But little hominess was done. Credit Mobilier
fell 6fr. The railway market opened with some firm-
ness, but it gave way afterwards in consequence of
the weakness of the Rents. It was announced
that the Lyons and Mediterranean compa-
nies had made • treaty for five years to
share their profits in stipulated proportions. This
news occasioned a good many purchases in the Medi-
terranean line, which rose 26fr. In the other lines
there was no great change.

It is said that M. itisis has written a letter to
each one of the ministers informing them that he
had offered to accept the concession of the Pyreoean
railways, with a subvention of only twenty millions
instead of the twenty-six millions which the
state is empowered to give by the law
I reluctantly voted at the close of the ses-
sion. There is u yet no official confinnstion of
the fact that these lines have been definitively
granted to his rival, M. Pereire. Indeed, although
the Corps logislatit feel persuaded that the matter
has been settled behind their back., it impossible that
it may be still pending. The Empetor, who met M.
Pereira at the railway station when he was leaving
Paris, did tell him that he had selected him from
among the candidates for this coveted concession.
M. Penile, in high glee, went off immediately to the
Ministry of Public Works to secure his prize, but be
was bitterly disappointed to find that the Emperor
had left to the minister the task of adding a disagree-
able supplement to the communication which his Ma.
jesty had made in person. The Emperor did not doubt
it was said, that M. Pereire would meet the desire
to give him a preference, by accepting similar terms
to those which M. Mires had offered. This condition
did not enter into M. Pereire's calculation, and be
asked for time to consider. The affair, I have resew
to believe, still stands over, and the notoriety which
it has attained owing to the warm debate in the
Corps Legislatif, and to M. Mires' determination not
to hide his candle ander a bushel, renders the settle-
ment the mon difficult.

which have placed themselves in direct communica-
tion with the French authorities."
