PARIS. FRIDAY EVUOIG.
M. Emile 011ivier publishes his manifesto in
taking possession of the P ruse. He lays it down
Slat when a nation finds an " impossibility" to ob-
tain its rights under an existing government, revo-
lution is justifiable, but that when the existence
'of that government merely interposes a' difficulty,'
constitutional opposition only should be resorted to.
He expresies himself opposed to all wars of conquest,
wars of infinenos, wars of parade, and wars of
dieseaion. This is a very comprehensive programme
against some of the peat wars of Napoleon
and of those which are to be apprehended. AL
Emile 011ivier concludes by declaring that under his
,management no change will be made in the prin-
ciples advocated by the Prose, under the friend to
whom he snooped* (M. Emile de Girardin). The
motto of the Prase is still " Democracy, Peace,
Liberty."
Ike curious question raised by IL Bandon, an
advocate, whether a communiqui containing
libellous matter addressed to one journal could
be produced with impunity by another which was
under no obligation to insert it, was decided to-
day by the Tribunal of Correctional Police,
in favour of the defendant, the Constifetionwel.
This judgment was, of course to be expected,
although I yet think that in point of law
it will be hard to sustain in a court of ap
peaL The rule laid down is that the words of all
and every of the many functionaries who have
, power to inflict a communicated note upon a news-
, paper are inviolable, and however libellous upon
individuals may be adopted with impunity by all
the world.
The Persian festival of Nourouz-Sultanieh, the
new solar year, was celebrated with greet ielat at
the Persian legation on March 21. Hassan-Ali-
Khan, the ambassador who won golden opinions
in Paris some years ago, and who is again ap-
pointed plenipotentiary, has not yet arrived, and
Suleiman-Khan, the chargdd'affaizes, is absent. The
fête was therefore conducted by Nazar Agar, the
intelligent secretary interpreter, who has been here
for some years, and who by his agreeable manners
and varied acquirements confirms the saying that
the Persians are the " Frenchmen of Asia."
The Bourse was again fluctuating, but the closing
quotations, though weaker than the highest of the
day, were better than yesterday. Rent* closed
with a rise of 20c. for cash, and 24c. for account,
at 681 r. 56e. and 68fr. 424 c. Mobilier rose
3fr. 75c., Credit Fonder, 17fr. 60e., and Italian,
174 c.

THZ MAZZINI MIFFING AT FLORENCE. Tbz
Florence coriespondent of the Delete, writing as the 20th,
says :—" The meeting in support of Martini's election, an-
volumed for the last few days, took place yesterday at the
Paglisno Theatre. As St. Joseph's day is a fife day here,
the theatre, which is the largest in Florence, WM literally
Crammed, and there were probably tr. me 3,000 wens preeent.
The chair was taken by Doll; the baker, who lisa
long
been the leader of the democratic party here, and who pm-
sasses in perfection the physique necessary for the part.
There was only one deputy epos the platform, viz., Signor
Bertani. The speeches delivered were just such as might
have been expected. They ware, however, distinguished
by relative moderation. Signor Alberto Mario aloseenterged
from the commonplaces of declamation in developing hie
programme, which is universal suffrage and universal mea-
-1 ments. The moat interesting feature in there kind of
meetings is the attitude of the public. I have been much
struck by the small amount of enthusiasm felt here for so-
Mallet ideas. Oce speaker, a little more emohatie than the
rest, eodeavonred to make a slight excursion into the
realms of socialism. He was applauded very faintly,
although the meeting was of a decidedly popu'ar character-
Universal suffrage, too, is not thought much of. It is
ideas of Independence sod national grandeur that really
excite the mum. Touch that chord and the audience is
aura to be carried away. The quiet of yesterday is a fresh
proof of the maturity of this cmatry for political liberty.
It would have been difficult to fled a more delicate. or
rather a more dangerous, subject than Martini's electioe ;
and St. Joseph's day, *elite day of Garibaldi and Mageni
himself. is one of those dates which may be coasidercd
dangerous to public order. Yet nothing took place to
alarm the moot timid."
Titmurnioni, RZFORII IN FRAHM—At the in- ,
stance of M. Angier, whose new comedy La Contagion is
now being played at the Odfon Theatre. in Perla, the
claque, or band of hired applauders, has been suppressed
in that 'Establishment. The ceuption the piece meets
with is. however, more enthusiastic than before.

assistance rendered by the steamer's crew the Mao were,
however, rescued. and the ship yes put about, and, with
the swamped boat in tow, reeerned to harbour. There was
' a string breeze from the 3.8. E., which has sisals increased
almost to a hurricane, rendering comonnicatioa between
the shore and Spitheed by boat slinost impoesible. At fe•
o'clock the sea was beetles with great violence over the
