LATEST FROM PARIS.

Since the foregoing was in type, we have accounts
from l'aris to last evening. Up to post-hour. there
was no interruption of the tranquillity which had
prevailed for the last few days. A procession
to the cemetery of St. Maur, preliminary to
the removal of the remains of the celebrated
Armand Carrel, formerly editor of the Na-
tional, to the Pantheon, was the great event of the
day. A large party
.of the national guards attended,
with General Courtais at their head, and the proces-
sion consisted of a considerable nnmber of respectable
young men, who walked arm-in-arm, wearing sprigs
Of everlasting in their hats, and sung in chorus the
" Chant des Girondins." At the cemetery M. Marrast
delivered a brief address, and was followed by M.
Emile de Girardin, editor of Le Presse, by whose band
Carrel fell. M. Emile bewailed his own misfortune
in having occasioned the death of so illustrious a
citizen, and was loudly applauded.
The students of the Leole de Medicine had ap-
pointed a commission to wait on the provisional
government, to present their adhesion. Ihe Society
of Literary Men, through its president, Felix Pyat,
had given in its adhesion to the republic. M. A.
Marrast replied to them as follows:
I could have wished that my colleague, M. de Lamartine,
had been present to receive you bat if my talent is not
equal to his, I can say that my seatiments are the same.
I see in you the representatives of the finest glories
of France ; I see those who steam to our country intellectual
preponderance in the world. You ought, in tact, citizens,
to form yourself round the government of the republic,
for its paramount wish is the dignity,the grandeur, the pros-
perity of literature, and the liberty of thought. With the
desire to attach your society more closely than ever to the
government, I express to you a wish to see you adopt the
title of Kepublicaine des Liens de Lewes."
This proposition was received with great enthn-
.

steam.
The council of state, headed by M. Cormenin, had
waited on the provisional government, to assure it of
its warm warm and active co-operation.
Cormenin said : " Unity is the soul of the French
nation; it forms its grandeur, its power, and its glory;
centralisation is the bond, and the council of state is, par
excellerart , the representative of the administrative affairs
of centralisation and of unity. If, at a later period, we shag
have one national assembly alone to represent the one and
indivisible majesty of the French people, the council of state
may render to the government even greater services than at
present."
M. Cremieux, in the name of the Provisional
Government, thanked the President of the Coun-
cil for the expression of their devotedness to the
republic, and expressed his concurrence in the
opinions expressed by M. Cormenin as to the ser-
vices which it would have in its power to render
to the Government. In conclusion, he said : " There
remains to us the republic! The people has con-
quered it, and we, its first representatives, have pro-
claimed it. The republic, that is to say, France,
all citizens, the nation, the people, for the republic is
the universality of citizens united for the triumph
of the country. Citizens ! let no all love it.
That republic, the name of which sounds so sweetly,
so religiously in our ears. l.et us love it all with the
same ardour, for their can be no shades of love for
the republic. In the monarchy shades of love
may exist. A king raay be loved more or less,
but a king does not represent the country ;
but to the republic we must give all our
devotedness, our fortune, and our lives. It has the
same claims on all, and the happiness of devoting our-
self for it constitutes the first virtue of the citizen—
patriotism. Citizens, ve la Itepublique !'"
The decree which continues the stamp duty upon
newspapers temporarily, gives dissatisfaction, as its
suspension is considered necessary.
The Bank of France had discounted bills during the
last three days, to the amount of 40,000,0001. The
bank of Lille haying been obliged to suspend pay-
ment in specie, the minister of finance had placed
1,300,0001. at the disposal of its directors.
M. Pierre-Napoleon Buonaparte (son of Lucien)
has addressed the following letter to the provisional
government :
" To THE MEMBERS OF THE PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT 01

THE r RENCK REPCRLIC.

" Gentlemen,—The son of Lucien Buonaparte—nurtured I
in his republican opinions—and, :ike him. passionately de.
voted to the gre; Mess and happiness of France ; I, a child of
the country, place myself at the displaud of the eminent
Citizens who form the provisional government. The sen-
timent by which I am governed is that of patriotic
enthusiasm, and the conviction that the prosperity and future I
prospects of the republic were resolver the day on which the
people placed you at the head of affairs. Like my father.
wbo never plighted his vow., I plight my own through your
medium, to the French republic.
" Receive, gentlemen, this manifestation of a profound
sympathy, and a devotion which only asks ;o he put to the
proof. (Signed)" PIERRE NAPOLEON BPONAPARTE.

The following has been published in the Moniteur.
PROCLAMATION.
Citizens,—The government commission for workmen has
entered on its functions. On those benches on which formerly
sat a privileged class—the peers of France—the people now
n their turn take their seats, as if to take poweuion of
heir rights, and mark the place of their sovereignty.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COI:RT.-THIS D.T.
Before the Lord Chief Baron and Me. Postfee Coltman.

---
TILE NIL:SHER IN ST. JAMES'S PARK. This
morning being fixed for the trial of Annette Myers, the
female who fir, d a pistol at Henry Ducker, a private in the
Coldstream Guards, the court was crowded to excess. At
10 o'clock the learned judges took their seats on the bench,
when the prisoner, who was dr.saed in black, was p:aced
at the bar, and in a tremulous voice pleaded Nut
Guilty. The Lord Chief Baron directed the prisoner
to be accommodated with a chair; and during nearly the
whole of the trial she kept her bandkerchia to her face.
M r. Bodkin and Mr. Clerk conducted the prosecution ; Mr

Clarkson defended the prisoner.—The learned Counsel
shortly stated the ease to the jug the event, however,
being of so recent a date, and the facts being the same, ren-
ders the repetition unnecessary. The evidence adduced
went to show that on the afternoon of the 4th of February the
deceased, who had been nearly three years in the regitnent,
had been on parade, and after he had left was joined by the
deceased. They walked on towards Queen's-square
gate. On reaching it deceased was about two yards in
advance of the prisoner, when a servant girl of the name of
Sexton, observed the prisoner to level a pistol at the head
of the deceased and fired, be then fell on his face ; she,
throwing the pistol down, turned round and walked to-
wards the palace. Other witnesses were called who heard
the prisoner say, I have done it,—l intended to do it.
Mr. Clarkson here observed, that he understood there
were on the hack of the indictment several other witnesses
who could only be called to speak to the same facts, and he
really considered it would be uonecessary to call them..
The Lord Chief Baron thought that evidence was
not sufficiently clear; still he felt aa anxious as the
learned counsel not to proceed further than was neces-
sary, merely for the purpose of gratifying an idle curiosity on
the part of the public. Sergeant Low, who was called to
.peak to the hand writing of the deceased, Paid that he
could not speak with confidence; Mr. Clarkson would
admit the hand-writing. The Lord Chief Baron said
he could not admit anything against the prisoner. The
I case then proceeded, and Ann Legg, servant in Northum-
berland-street, Strand, deposed that she was acquainted with
the prisoner, whom she met on Thursday night the 3rd,
in the Park. The prisoner then said, " Henry and I have
parted." Witness knew who she meant, and oho then
showed a pistol, and said, " I have bought this for
him." Witness at first thought she meant it as
a present ; but, on being undeceived by her, witness
said, " Are you aware of the consequence ? " She replied,
" Yes; I know I shall suffer for it ; but it will be a warning
to others." The prisoner then said that the deceased had
returned a letter to her, for which she had to pay 2d., that
he bad had 21. from her, and she had only 9s. left out of her
last quarter's wages. The prisoner said that he
should have it on Sunday. Witness replied that her
beset would fail her, when the prisoner said, it will not.'The
letters which passed between the prisoner and the deceased
having been read, the case for the prosecution closed.
Mr. Clarkson addressed the jury on the part of the prisoner
and said, the: the unfortunate creature at the bar,
instead of being a depraved character, had been deceived
by the deceased, who after having{ seduced her, and then
?ebbed her of all she possessed within& few shilling', then
aliantleand her. Coals they (1.404 for ane minute that she
wai Mott Itp &Memnon, and that under these feelings she
had committed the act which led to the present investigation.
In support of this view of the case, the learned connect read
several letters written bythe prisoner to the deceased. inwhieh
sire breathed the most ardent and pure love ;and concluded by
observing, that before the poor unfortunate creature was Pent
• a public execution, the authorities of the country should be
I placed in possession or all the facts connected with the un-
happy case. He even hoped that they (the Jury) would
step fin ward and assist in causing these circumstances to he
laid before the proper quarter, and thus assist in preventing
the extreme penalty of the law from beit.st carried into effect.
The Lord Chief Baron having summed up at considerable
length, and nt times laboured under very great emotion,
being evidently much affected. The jury, after a short con-
sultation, found the prisoner Guilty, the foseman saying we
strongly recommend her to mercy on the ground of strong
provocation. Their lordships then placed on the black
cap when the Lord Chief Baron drocecded to pass the
the awful sentence of the law, holding out no hope of
mercy.
While sentence was being passed, the wretched woman
was obliged to be held up by the female attendant and one of
the turnkeys.

THE MURDERERS OF ME. LLOYD.—On Monday,
sentence was paaaed on Donohoe, convicted of this daatarilly
crime. He made a confession in open court, hut stated that
it was Flanagan who fired the allot which killed Mr. Lloyd.
lie will be executed on the 22nd Mama, and Flanagan on
the 29th.

COMMERCIAL Of MARKETS.
MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.
Half-past One.— The stock market was quiet, with
prices scarcely altered from the closing rates of
yesterday, until about half an hour since, when upon
some rather considerable sales Console fell to 81;
to ; for account, and 81'4 to for money. The
report is, that the sales referred to were
for foreign account, but of the truth nothing positive
can really be known. It is scarcely likely, as sup-
posed, that some eminent foreign capitalists, now or
late in this capital, should be the parties for whom
the sale operations were effected. Reduced Threes,

Two o'Clock.—Console have just recovered to 811

are also a shade better. . _

The advices this morning from Holland are very
discouraging about money and commercial affairs
generally. In stocks there was no business doing,
nor prices quoted, as, according to the resolution
of the managers of the Stock Exchange, all transac-
tions were still suspended. A remarkable rise had
taken place in rye, which was quoted 40 guilders per
last higher. Oar accounts from Belgium are not less
unfavourable.
