PARIS, Fes. 14.

The lArrte of this evening publishes an article
signed by M. l)uvernois, which states that the
Emperor's speech is a brilliant continuation of his
Majesty's letter of the 19th January. The same
journal adds—" The young men of the present
generathm who entertain neither rancour nor retro-
grade prejudices will look upon the consolidation
of the government as nothing wore than the pre-
servation of that universal suffrage which the revo-
lution would perhaps endanger, and the develop-
ment of that liberty which the revolution would
perhaps not give."

The l'resse announces that yesterday, at the
close of the sitting of the Privy Council, M. Chev-
reau, Prefect of Lyons, was summoned to Paris.

BANQI'IIr AT FISHMONGERS' HALL. —The Wor-
shipful Company of Fishmongers entertained about 100
guests last evening at one of their profusely-served ban-
quets. The Prime Warden (Mr. W. C. Vanning) was in
the chair ; and amongst the guest, were Mr. Justice
Smith, the Bishop of Nelson, Vice-Admiral Milne, Mr.
Justice Keating, Admiral Boeanquet, Major-General
Beadle, Colonel French, M.P., Mr. Leeman, M.l'.,
Mr. Steel, M.P., Mr. J. A. Hardcastle, M.P., Mr. Ni-
cholson, M.P., Sir Morton Pete, Bart., M.P., Mr.
Russell Gurney, M.P., Alderman Lawrence, M.P.,
Alderman Copeland, Alderman Rose, the Hon. T. Ryan,
of Montreal, Ac., and the Prime Wardens and Masters of
other City Guilds. In responding to the toast of " the
House of Commons," Colonel French hoped that whatever
might be the end of the difficulties that were now expe-
rienced in the House of Commons, the result would be
the true welfare of the entire people of the realm. In ac-
knowledging the complimentary speech by the Prime Warden
in proposing the '• Bench and the Bar," Mr. Justice Keating
spoke in high terms of the assistance received by the
judges from the jurymen of the City of London. The toast
of the "Lord Mayor and Corporation" was responded to
by Alderman Copeland, who incidentally remarked that his
:10 year.' experience as a City magistrate was that some.
thing like 200 days in the year had to be devoted to the
duties of the office. Prosperity to the proposed confedera-
tion of North American provinces was the subject of •
toast proposed in an exhaustive speech by the Prime
Warden, who warmly advocated the confederation, and
wished the British North American provinces "God speed"
in their union. The Hon. Mr. McDougall, provincial
secretary of Canada, and the Hon. P. Mitchell, premier of
New Brunswick, returned thanks, explaining the objects
they had in visiting this country. They had received from
the government, and Englishmen in general, nothing but
kindness snit good will. The leading principles of the mea-
sure brought in by Lord Carnarvon were conceived by the
late government, and the late government had adopted
them. Whatever a section of the English people might
think of the desirableness of separating the colonies from
the mother country, the Canadians themselves were only
anxious to live under the British flag, as junior partners,
rather than as eons fit to start in life for themselves. A
few other personal toasts were given, and the entertain.
ment was brought to • close at a late hour. Pieces were
sung during the evening by Mr. Bamford, Mr. H. 131:ck-
land, Miss Elton, Miss Banks, and Mr. George Perren.
