him eines his discomfiture either vindictive or jealous.
Innamat gave still stronger signs of a forgiving
temper in his visit to this country. Whilst in France
he was received with almost regal honoars, English
society welcomed him as a friend, and the Turkish
hero bad the good sense to consider the English-
man's shake of the hand a greater compliment than
the Frenchman's guard of honour and formal salute.
ABBAS PACRA, the eon of Mummer's eldest
son, lonesome, succeeds both as heir and as actual
governor of Egypt. For Meamirr has long sunk
into a state of snood childhood. When European
rivalry ran high in
.Egypt, ABBAS was considered to
lean to English interests and ideas, Isaautat to
French. But since European agents have ceased to
fan the flame of this rivalry, its spirit has died away
from the breasts of Egyptian princes and etateamen.
And the Rag is at peace, because we leave it me.

FRANCE.
PARIS, SATURDAY, 5.30 P.M.
Great excitement has been produced here, end will
no doubt epread through France, by the announce-
ment of the intelligence of the expected airivsl of the
Pope at Marseilles. The minister of worship, M.
Freston, started for Marseilles lest night to receive in
person the head of the church. Indeed, it is pro-
bable if what we hear is correct, that the Pope may
have arrived at Marseilles even before the minister.
The greatest preparations are making for his recep-
tion. It is announced that apartments in the Tuileries
are in preparation fur him, in case he should consent
to accept the invitation of the government and come

to Paris.
The Patrie of yesterday evening says:
The council of ministers assemble! this evenieg, at five
o'clock, to regulate the order of the reception to be given to
the Pops at Marseilles. It is said that the National A.sem
bly will make this an occasion for taking a week's adjourn-
ment, and that a great many of the members will go to meet
the holy Father. It is believed that his holiness will have
sesigned to him a residence in one of the southern towns of
Franco, unl,s. he should pref.r sojourniog in Paris, in which
we the Tuileries would be whined to him and his suite.
The Paris press, with the exception of the journals
of the red republic, chaunts to-day quite a chorus of
welcome on the approach of the Pope. Those who are
familiar with the history of the fii et revolutiou cannot
fail to be struck with tie change which has taken
place in the spirit of the times.
M. Trouve Chauvel has delivered in the chamber
his financial statement, which, notwithetending the
flatterinir picture which ho endeavoured to draw of
the financial prospects for the year 1849, and the
produce of an equilibrium between the receipt and
expenditure, has produced neither conviction nor '
satisfaction. The minister has tale° into the error so I
common since the revolution of giving exaggerated
estimates of the receipts and low ones of the expenses.
bowev.r, has deceived no one. It was exposed
by M. Achille Fould and M. Binault, the reporter of
the finance committee. If it be intended to revive
confidence, something more satisfactory must be
done than is produced in the speech of M. Trouve
Chauvel.
In the Moniteur of this morning a detailed report
is given of the number arid movements of the troops
on the days of the insurr. ction of June, in support of
the statement of General Cavaignac.
L'Assemblie Nati,nale, one of the most influential
and widely circulated of the moderate journals, has
atter much hesitation and delay, declared to-day in
favour of Prince Louis.
Formidable attroupenu Ws have been collected
throughout the day on the Place de la Concorde, the
ltue Royale, the Place VendOme, and on the Boule-
vard, near the Hotel des Affairea Etrangeres. Being
repeatedly dispersed by the police, these crowds as-
sembled again stud again. Orators addressed the dif-
ferent groups, and 1 found the subject generally to be
the presidential election.
M. A. Ciemieux has addressed the following letter
to the journals:
Paris, Bee. I.—Monsieur,—A. letter, signed by six repre-
sentatives of the ledre-et Loire, supports the candidateship
of General Cavaignsc. The Si.:cle of this morning publishes
that letter, and places st the end of it the following words,
which appear as a pmt-crept, e' M. CrEinieux has demanded
some hours to reflect." Each of my six colleagues disavows
this strange remark. They know that I replied at ones—
without delay. Since you have given place in your journal
to the collective declaration in favour of lOenerel Cavaisnac,
be so good as to iesrr t mine. " I shank vote for Louis Napo-
leon Bonaparte," itc.—An Caliente:, Representative of
the People for the lndre et-Loire.
MM. Gustave de Beaumont, Cheri, Saint-Albin,
Cannella (de Fresnay), Caaselin (de Chantenay),
Haureau, Trouve-Chauvel, Degousee, de Lemoriciere,
Jules Lebreton, and Lorette, representatives of the
Seethe, have addressed to electors of that department
a collective manifesto, in which they recemmend the
candidateship of Gen. Cavaignac.
" MM. l'roudhon and Felix Pyat," says the Patrie
of yesterday evening, " have at length escaped from
the double surveillance of the police and the work-
men. We are informed that a reneontre took place
this morning. Two shots are said to have bee : ex-
charged on both sides without either of the adver-
saries being struck."
The delegates of the electoral committees of the
socialists of Paris have come to a resolution to esta-
blish a jury of honour to prevent duels between per-
sons professing their doctrines.
The Patrie says :—" We are about, it seems, to
have at Paris a congress of democratic socialists. The
clubs of the departments are to send to their fiends
in the capital delegates to decide, in a general assem-
bly, whether definitively M. Ledru-Rollin or M. Ras-
pail is to be their candidate. Three hundred of these
delegates have already arrived in Paris."
The council general of the department of the Eare
has resolved by a majority of 20 votes against 11, that
the National Assembly having fulfilled its mission by
the proclamation of the constitution ongbt to be dis-
solved. The government having expected this reso-
lution sent M. Dupont (de l'Eure) to oppose it. An
animated discussion took place between at represen-
tative and the Duke de Broglie on the occasion, and
the resolution was nevertheless adopted.
The Moniteur du Soir announces that Captain Rol-
land, of the Engineers, has been elected representa-
tive for ti e Moselle by 17,931 votes. M. de la Mos-
kowa had only 11,374 votes.
The democratic banquet at Lyons, which was an-
nounced a month ago, took place on the 27th at one
o'clock, and was attended by more than 6,000 guests.
A medal commemorating the banquet was distributed
among the pests, who retired without having
com-
mitted any breach of order.
