LATEST FROM PARIS.

THE ELECTIONS.—RUMOURED ARREST OF
PRINCE DE JOINVILLE.
PARIS, THCIUMAT, 630 P.ll.
The returns for the eleven vacancies in the deputa-
tion of Paris were proclaimed to-day, at the Hotel de
Ville. The following is the list of the successful can-
didates, with the number of the votes which they
respectively obtained :—Causaidiere,l47,4oo ; Mon au,
126,880 ; tioadchaux, 107,097 ; Changarnier, 105,539;
Thiers, 97,394 ' • Pierre Leroux, 91,375 ; Victor Hugo,
86,865; Louis Bonaparte, 84,420; Lagrange, 78,682;
Boissel, 77,247 ; Proudhon, 77,094.
The four first names in the list of unsuccessful can-
didates, are as follows: Thore, 73,109; Kersausie,
72,438 ; Raspail, 71,977 ; E. l Oirardin, 70,508.
It will be perceived how well M. Caussidiere was
justified in resigning his office and seat, and throw-
ing himeelf on the country. Ile is 21,000 votes a-ht ad
of the most successful of the remaining candidates.
It is generally understood that M. Caussidiere, al- I
though a decided republican and socialist, will sup-
Iport the moderate party.
M. Moreau is an ex-deputy and ex-Mayor of Parts,
also of the moderate party. M. Goudchaux is ex-
Minister of Finance, and of the moderate party repre-
sented by the National. Gen. Changarnier holds
moderate opinions, and is considered a legitimist.
Pierre Leroux, a journalist, a democrat, and a social-
ist of the school of Lamennais. Victor Hugo will
support very moderate opinions. La Grange, an
ultra democrat, of the Babes school, and an old
offender against monarchy. Boissel, an ex-Mayor,
and holding moderate opinions. Prudhon, a journalist,
I editor of the Representant du l'euple, and an ultra-
democrat. Such are the results of the election.
Thore, Kersausie, and Respell are all ultra-
do mocrats.
We read in the Commerce:—" A report was spread
in the coarse of yesterday's sitting of the National
Assembly that the police were in search of a high
personage arrived in the morning at Paris by dili-
gence from London. We think it right to abstain
from mentioning the names which were circulated
with this news ; but, from information which we have
reason to believe to be correct, we can allow ourselves
to go so far as to announce that this personage has
been arrested."
The personage here alluded to is the Prince de
Joinville, whose presence in Paris I have already an-
.l nounced to you.
Yesterday, at 7 o'clock in the afternoon, an aide-de-
camp of M. Clement Thomas, commandant of the
National Guard, had his horse killed under him by a
pistol-shot, fired by a man in a blouse. The officer was
severely injured by the fall. It is suppoeed that the
assassin mistook him for M. Clement Thomas.
Prince Louis Napoleon is understood to be in Paris.
He will probably obtain three returns besides that of
the capital. The government, of course, will not dare
to molest him.
The Committee on Public Works was yesterday
again occupied with the railway queKion, and at
last decided that it would propose an amend-
ment on the government bill. The form of
this amendment gave birth to some discus-
sion, in the course of which the Minister of Fi-
nance, who had been called in, declared that he was in
accord with the committee on the principal points, and
particularly on that of having any difference as to price
referred to a jury. Finally, the committee determined
that its amendment should declare-1, that all the rail-
ways are to be repurchased and are to become the pro-
perty of the state; 2, certain modes of repurchase, by
means of public securities, shall be proposed ; 3, such
companies as are to be re-purchased are dissolved,
and each shareholder is called on to accept or refuse
individually the offers of the government ; 4, Such
shareholders as refuse the offers made shall be bound
to have themselves represented by a syndicate, and
to abide by whatever decision may be given by s
jury, in the nomination of which they shall contri-
bute in an equitable proportion. It is probable that
the precise terms of this amendment will be agreed
on at the next sitting.
The Commerce of to-day says that 16 additiopal
regiments, quartered at present in the departments,
have received orders to march to Paris before Sunday

next.
The commercial news from Lyons are deplorable.
It is reported to-day that a meeting will take place
to-morrow, between Gen. Clement Thomas, and M.
Napoleon Bertrand, in consequence of an offensive
letter inserted by the latter in the journals, with re-
ference to the attack of Gen. Thomas against the
Legion of Honour. M. Thomas has two seconds, one
of whom is M. Gninard. M. Bernard's seconds are
Gen. South and Captain de Vernon.
