PARIS, TEC/VADAT 'YINING.

The Paris Conference sat to-day for the sixteenth
time, and it is announced that it will hold further
sittings on Saturday and Monday next. The con-
fident expectation that the great affair of the Prin.
cipalities wield be settled, and the result made
public before August IS, is now therefore at an end.
It is given out that Monday will really be the last
day, but after so many disappointments no great
confidence can be felt in this news. Whenever the
question of the navigation of the Danube may come
upon the tapis, it is understood that there will be an
adjournment to enable the Austrian plenipotentiary
to refer to his government. Suspicions are enter-
tained of Austria, and it is suggested that she
ought to be tied down to send an answer within a
certain time.

It is currently reported to-day that Marshal Ban-
don has resigned the governor-generalship of

Algiers, and that he is to be replaced by General
Sallee. This rumour is very probably true. Prince
Napoleon's nomination as Minister of Algeria, and
various arrangements consequent upon that appoint-
ment, have so changed the position of many leading
men connected with the colony that resignations
were expected.
The Emperor left Brest this morning for Quimper.
Admiral Hamelin went direct to Lorient, to make
preparations for the reception of their Majesties in
that port, when they are expected to arrive to-
morrow.

The Duke of Malakoff leaves Paris, for London,
on Saturday, the 14th, to arrive in time for the
dinner that he will give at the Preach Embasey, on
the 16th, is honour of the Emperor'. fete day.'
The Court of Caseation this day rejected the
appeal of the Caen murderer', Graft and Pascal,
who will therefore probably be speedily executed
unless there should be any truth in the report that
on account of the Emperor and Empress having
parsed through the town while they were lying in
prison there, under sentence of death, the punish-
ment due to those horrible ruffians will be com-
muted.

The Bourse, although it has not recovered from
the reaction which set in yesterday afternoon, has
shown a great deal of &mem, and a great deal of
business was done, particularly towards the close.
The Rente left off for account at yesterday's price,
69fr. 160., and fell 16c. for cash, closing at 69(r.
Mobilier fell 2fr. 60c. There was a great deal of
fluctuation in railways. Southern fell 16fr. on
account of a report that the treaty with the govern-
ment wu not signed, M. Rouher differing with the
directors about the amount of the subvention. As
M. Rouher has gone away for his vacation, the
settlement cannot be =vested to tithe place for some
time, and it is moreover feared that the arrange-
ments with other companies which must be in due
course submitted for float approval to the Council of
State, will all be hang up till the treaty with the
Southern Railway is signed. Orleans and Western
fell 7fr. 600. each, and Northern 2fr. 60e.; Lyons
remains without change.

It is with real pain-that I have to announce the
contemplated spoliation and disfigurement of what
yet remains of the once beautiful and harmonious
gardens of the Tuileries. All the marble statues
are to be taken ►way and placed in a separate gal-
lery of the Louvre. The spots on which these
chefs d'ccescre of Coyzevox, Couston, Lepantre,
David, &c., now stand, axe to be occupied by fac-
similes cast in broom. But bronze statues under
trees are the most melancholy things imaginable,
and will form a poer ecompeneatiou indeed for the
white marbles which contrasted so happily with the
masses of foliage above, aught the eye at every
turn, and tempted the saunterer to stroll from glade
to glade, while his mind fed fat upon
claseioal and poetical imaginings. The ex-
cuse foe this desecration of a grove dear
not only to the inhabitants of Paris, but to the re-
miniscences of every European traveller, is that the
outer air spoils marble. I think the reason alto-
gether insufficient. The statues in the Tuileries,
though good, are not of that transcendent merit that
it can be an object, in an artistioal point of view, to
protect them so very carefully against the winds of
heaven. To take them away from the public to
whom they belong, under the pretext of respiting
them for some years bagel front that sentence of
decay which hangs ever all sablanary things, is
p►eptet oitess deendi perdere corsets. The statues
ere not in very bad condition, and they might be
improved by careful cleaning. Better that they
should remain, even if somewhat deteriorated, in
the place where the publics were ansuotomed to look
for them, and might freely enjoy their beauties
every day, than that they should be stowed away
in a museum, where they will be seen only by those
who comply with regulations, go at stated hoes,
and are surfeited by agglomerations of artistical
works too heavy for mental digestion.
