LATEST FROM PARIS.

PARIS, Tit VILSDAY, G
This being the Feast of the Aseens:on, the Boa. se
was closed, and the shops were generally shut. The
most of the journals of tc-day contain articles on the
scene in the Chamber of I )eputies yesterday. Generally
speaking, there is displayed, even in the organs of
the parties most opposed to M. Louis Blanc, a degree
of moderation which was hardly to be expected.
The Executive Government has sent the following
communications to the journal,'
Prosecutions arc ordered against th.‘ author and printer
of a placard posited on the walls of Porte. proposing the
Prince de Joinvilk ns a candidate fm the Nat onal Assembly.
Thi., placard i. seilitiou., because, by the terms of the d. cr, e
recenly rend, red by the Assembly, the French territory is
interdicted to all members of the ex-royal family.
At the meeting of the representatives in the bu-
reaux yesterday to examine the demand made for
authorisation to proceed against M. Louis Blanc for
being concerned in the affair ef May Li, very little
discussion took place. It was rumoured amongst
the members that the law-officers of the republic
had for several days been applying to the
Executive Committee for the authorisation, but
that it had been always refused. It was only that
morning, it was said, that after the law-officers had
declared that it would be impossible to go on with the
ease if the authorization wax n fused, that the exceu.
tive emumittec consented. In the bureaux, sumo of
the members declared themselves to be decidedly op-
posed to the authorization, but in general the bureaux
confined themselves to recommending the persons
nominated to the committee to pay the most scrupu-
lous attention to every part of the case, and to demand
explanations from the Procurcur-General. In some
bureaux, also, the members of the committee were
directed to ascertain if the prisoners were to be tried
before the ordinary tribunals or before a special court.
MM. Base and I,roiseard abstained from voting,
b. cause they were witnesses in the case ; and M. de Cor-
menin, on account of his old intimacy with M. Louis
Blanc. Amongst the persons appointed to the cern-
mi•tee are several who gave no opinion on the matter.
The Committee on Accounts was s esterday occupied
with exam ning the question of the interior ex p...nscs of
the Assembly and the salary of the President and
of the Questors. tinder the former sta.e of things,
the salary of the President, fix. d at 80,000:.
a-year, was assigned to the President personally,
and not to the office, for which cettain allowance,
wt re made in addition. The committee has
derided that the salary at present shall be 4,000 f.
a month, given to the office and not to the func-
tionary. The qucstors, who before had 10,000 f.
a year, are now to have 500 f. a month, independently
of their pay of 2,3 f. a day as representatives.
The Committee on Labour yesterday proceeded to
t'ee monthly renewal of its officers. It maintained
M. Corbon as President, and left the others also with-
out change.
The Committee of the Interior yesterday heard the
officers of the mounted Garde Mobile, who appeared in
uniform, and with the marks of their rank, although
their nomination has been annulled by a decree of the
Este& ivc Committee. The Committee of the Interior,
having learned that these officers still continue to do
their nervier at the Palace of the Luxembourg, named
a sub-committee, composed of MM. d'iteriunbault,
Berger, and Chavoin, to demand fresh explanations
from the Minister of the Interior.
In the Itue Mesley yesterday .a man was arrested
for throwing inflammable balls into cellars. Similar
balls were found on him and at his residence.
The model farm at Suresne, near Paris, belonging
to M. de Rothschild, was yesterday completely
destroyed by tire, notwithstanding every effort
was made to save it. The fire was the work of incen-
diaries, and several persons have been arrested on
suspicion. It will be remembered that, immediately
after the revolution, an attempt was made to burn
down M. Rothschild's mansion in the name village.
The sitting of the Club des Femmes at Buis, held
yesterday was extremely tempestuous. The ques-
tion beton it was the exciting one of divorce.
The beaureau, which is composed of the committee
for editing the Vdr des Femmes, declared itself
strongly in favour of the opinion of NI. Cre-
mieux ; but the meeting was divided in senti-
ments, and the debate soon degenerated into a dis-
pute, so that no resolution could be come to. On
comity, out the members of the club were received
with loud, but somewhat equivocal, cheers by a large
assemblage of the male sex, who formed a passage for
them to pass through.
