PARIS, WIDNLSDAY EVINDIG.

The arrest of Garibaldi is, of course, the great
event of the day. Sinalunga, the place where he
was arrested (and not Asinalunga, as stated in the
Maniteur), is a town in Tuscany, containing 3,60)
inhabitants, in the valley of Chiana, 33 kilometres
from Arezzo. The day before his arrest Garibaldi
was favourably received by the municipality and
national guard of Areaxo, to whom he made •
speech declaring that Italy could not be deaf to the
appeal of the Roman people.
It will be seen from the report' of the Bourse
that Garibaldi's arrest is far from being considered
as a settlement of the Roman question, or even as
a momentary removal of • cause of uneasiness. M.
R•ttasai will be greatly embarrassed to know what
to do with Garibaldi now that he has him • pri-
lsoner. He at once offered to set him at liberty,
and let him go to Caprer•, if he would give his
parole to renounce his project against Rome.
Garibaldi positively refused to make any such pea-
-1 miss. What is now to be done with him 1 Is he
to be tried I The whole country would be with
him, and the government will scarcely dare to face
the agitation that his trial would produce. But if
he is kept long in prison without trial, there will be
an outcry against the illegality of his incaroera •
tion. And if he is released he will at once endeavour
to reach the Roman States, where he has • little
army waiting for him.
This is • day of wild rumours. The evening
papers state, " under all reserve," that riots
have occurred in Florence, and that M. Rattazzi's
house has been sacked; that Menotti Gariballi
is in Rome, and that • rising in the Roman
states is yet to be apprehended. The Press,
speaks of ministerial changes as on the tapir.
It says that the Duke of Persigny and M.
Walewaki have been sent for to Biarritz ; that
there is a talk of M. Drouyn de Lhuya coming
into office ; that M. Haussmann, who left Paris
for a week, has extended his conga to a month, and
in all probability will return, not in Prefect of the
Seine, but either as • private individual or a
minister. M. Genteur is spoken of for a high office,
which will give him an opportunity of taking • great
part as a government orator in the Chamber.
The Bourse was extremely depressed. Rente
fell 35c. for cash, and 17ic. for account, closing at
69fr. and 69;r. 12ec. Mobilier, after going down to
185 fr. (!), closed at 190 fr. with a fall of 26fr. It
was said that one of the old directors having
refused to sign • guarantee, the Bank of France
had lent but 27 millions instead of 37i. Credit
Fonder fell 20fr. ; Comptoir d'Esoompte, 13fr. 60c.;
and the Mobilier Espagnol, 12fr. 500.

The Belgian paper La Meuse, relates that a
serious robbery took place on Saturday n4ht at Ohente,
' under singular circumstances. It is stat that the pro-
prietor of the menagerie which is situated at the fair in
that locality, had just sold his fine collection of animals to
some English people, and had received in part payment
about 10,000 francs. This sum was deposited in a chest
which was placed in the den itself. Notwithstanding the
proximity of lions, tigers, an elephant, &c., • bold robber
entered and carried off both chest and money, and up to
the present time nothing has been recovered. The police
have made active search for the disoovery of the audacious
thief who exercised his calling in the midst of ferocious
beasts. It is rumoured at Chem% that an individual has
been arrested,

The CALEDONIAN RAILWAY.—The Caledonian
Railway meeting was bell yesterday In Glasgow. The
chairman (Colonel Salkeld) adverted to the reports cir-
culated regarding the finances of the company. He main-
tained that these reports war, intended to depreciate the
market value of the stock, and thus enable spesalators,
who, he was informed, bad "bested" Vie market to the
extant ot 500,000 L, to hay in awls at a lower rata, and
thus realise a prat on the stock they bad already cold
without having it to deliver. The half-yearly report was
unanimously approved of. The agreement with the Sol-
way Company was confirmed.
