PARA WED:MOAN EVINING.

The marriage of Madill). Melanie de Hubner with
M. de Manpassant, a fish landowner of the depart-
ment of the Maine and Loire, was solemnised this
morning in the chapel of the Pope's Nuncio, in the
Rue °repel* St. Germain. When M. de Hubner
left Perin it was intended that his daughter's mar-
riage should take place at Brussels, but it was
found that, owing to neither of the parties having a
domicile in Belgium, there would have been legal
difficulties in the way of performing the ceremony
so soon as was desired. Count Walewski wrote to
M. de Hubner that political causes need not prevent
, his presence in Paris on the wedding-day, but the
I minister's offer was declined with thanks. The Count
and Countess de Flaviguy appeared as proxies for the
father and mother of the bride. Almost all the
corps diplomatique now in Paris were present, but
Lord Cowley, who had been asked to be a witness.,
was absent from indisposition. The bridegroom is
about a year older than the bride's father, who is
only forty-eight years of age.

ihearthaiM:de Rubntr, who was lately spoken
of us likely to be Austrian minister at Frankfort, is
now very anxious to be appointed to Loudoo, with
the rank of ambassador ; the present Austrian repre-
sentative at the court of St. James's is only a minister
plenipotentiary.
A letter from Modena states that on May 12 the
Commandant Ribotti having received intelligence
that some Modenese troops were approaching Car-
rare, sallied forth to meet them at the head of a
force composed of Sardinians and volunteer,. At
4in the afternoon the troops of the house of Este
opened a fire, which continued till 7 in the evening.
They then retired, and General Ribotti returned to
Carrara, leaving a column with orders to watch the
enemy's movements. The firing on both sides must
have been rather distant, for the letter, speaking of
casualties, merely says that there were "serious
wounds" on both sides, but that the Sardinians
had the honours of the struggle.
A large " discount" was again placarded at the
opening of the Bourse. This sat of operation has
lees effect than formerly, now that the parquet has
quarelled with the confine, and refused to take cog-
nisance of the operations of the latter. The Rents
gave way a few centimes in the middle of the day,
but became firmer at the close, and left off at
131 fr. 16c. and tilfr. with a rise of 160. both for ash
and account. Mobilier rose 10fr. There was little
change—not more than 2fr. We. either way—in
