An extraordinary statement, which I think must
shortly be authoritatively contradicted, is made by
the Epoque. That journal says that when hereafter
the French government sees fit to seize a foreign
journal in the post-office, it will assimilate the
seizure to a "warning," or rather a suspension, and
not allow the journal seized to circulate in France
for two months. I remember that early in the
coup d'ital days the Paris board of censure tried to
exercise a jurisdiction over the foreign preen by
operating upon the correspondents here. "Soft
slimier" and threats were alternately had recourse
to. Correspondents were told that if they would
only be moderate they would always be welcome
at the Ministry of the Interior, and would
receive the latest news, and when this bait did not
take they were reminded that the French law
enables the government to expel any foreigner with-
out cause assigned. The correspondents simply
went on writing according to their own conscience
and judgment, utterly regardless of these foolish
menaces. The measure in rem now spoken of
would be retrograde in a degree too ridiculous to be
thought of at this tune of day. It would do the
French government infinite harm in the public
.
opinion of Europe, and would seriously thwart
the character, which, as recent symptoms show, it
wishes to assume, of a promoter of peace and
economy. If any member of *the government is
chuckling over this ingenious device his triumph
swill be short-lived. Jurisdiction over English
journals the imperial system will never have,
land it is useless to attempt to assert it.
A notice in the French papers states that ma-
levolent reports have been lately circulated con-
cerning the issue of the new Turkish bonds, but
that, in point of fact, they will be in course of
delivery from and after to-morrow, Nov. 2, at the
office of the General Company, 68, Rue de Pro-
