PARIS, MONDAY EVENING.
The Patric contains the following startling pa.
ragraph :

- -
Lars= Mgrs.—Oar letters from Turin contain an an-
nonnoememt which we mention with all reserve. It is said
that with a view of preventing the serious complications
which would be produced in Italy by the occupation of the
kingdom of Naples by Garibaldi, there is a question of send-
ing a Piedmontese corps d'armee to the capital of the Two
Sidles. This measure is represented as the result of an
arrangement with the constitutional government of his Ma.
testy the King of the Two Sicilies.
I go far beyond the " reserve " of the Petrie in
questioning the truth of this news. I denounce it
unhesitatingly as utterly incredible and a weak in-
vention of the enemy. Victor Emmanuel has not
in his service a corps d'armde that would do the
duty here assigned to them. If any Piedmonteee
troops be sent to Italy, they will assuredly go to
assist Garibaldi, and not to tight against him. No
other evening p►per breathes a word of the extra-
ordinary story circulated by the Patric, which,
however, I should state is noticed by Builier's Cur-
revondence as "not improbable."
The news of General Fleury's mission to Rome,
which originally appeared in BuUier's Correspon-
dence, is now contradicted by the same authority.
The general is with the Emperor at the Chalons
camp, and will be his Majesty's right-band man
in making the arrangements for the journey to
Savoy, Nice, and Algeria.
The Bourse was decidedly depressed. Uneasiness
was felt at the attitude of Austria with regard ter
Italy. The speech of the Emperor Francis Joseph
at Saltsburg, in which he referred in energetic and
confident language to the understanding he had
oome to with Prussia at Tosplitz, was the subject of
much comment. Norwithst•nding a very plausible
version given by the independence of the results
of that meeting, from which it would appear that
Prussia positively refused to hamper herself with
any engagement about Venice, fears are entertained
(fears which I myself believe to be unfounded) jest
there should be some agreement between the two
powers which may once more embolden Austria to
strike a blow against the freedom of Italy. The
Rente, which, it will be remembered, fell 100.
on Saturday, experienced the further fall of
25c. for cash, and 15c. for account, closing
at 67fr. 90c. in each case. At the turning
point of Mfr. a considerable struggle was made,
which ended in the defeat of the speculators for the
rise. Mobilier fell 7fr. 50c. The railways were
heavier than they have been for some time past.
Orleans fell 7fr. 50c. ; Lyons, Mr. 25c. ; Northern
and Western, 6fr. each ; Southern, 2fr. 50c. ; and
Eastern, lfr. 211 c.
M. de Leseeps arrived in Paris yesterday from
Alexandria. He gives out that he is altogether
satisfied with the result of his mission, and that he
obtained from thePacha of Egypt everything he asked
for. The works of the famous Sues canal are, he
says, going on with prodigious rapidity ; the native
"navvies," stimulated by French example, prove
efficient, and a place called Port Seib, which a year
ago was a bare desert, is now • town, and will
become a city before another year expires.
It is stated from Toulon that the steam corvette
Eumdnide, which was originally armed for Syria,
is ordered to Constantinople to reinforce the French
naval station there.

BL Jules Fevre WM this day elected botonnier of
the Order of Advocates. _ _ .

M. Wagner, the composer, having been informed
by telegraph that the King of Saxony has abro-
gated the decree of banishment issued against him
in 1848, immediately left Paris for Germany,
which he had not seen for twelve years. He will
return, however, before the new year to superintend
the production at the Grand Opera of his new
opera Teakauser.
On August 18, the day after the fête, a
"Concert Musard" will be performed in the
pretty garden recently laid out between the Palais
de l'lndustrie and the Seine, for the benefit of the
Christians in Syria. This initiative will doubtless
be followed by other public establishments.

The Minister of War in Austria has just ordered
that protestant wittier. shall only he loterred in cemeteries
in a part separated from the catholic portion by a hedge or
enclosure. Some of the Austrian journals compLtin of the
measure IA being exceedingly illiberal, and only called firth
by the requirements of the Coaceniet.

DANCES IN SYRIA.-PARLIAMEN.
TART RETURNS.

Further papers relating to the disturbances in
Syria ware issued lids morning. They include letters from
the Britiahelhilla al Beyrout, Aleppo, Hammett", Jam-
sshim, Smyrna, Jaffa, Ice., and despatches from Sir H.
Sulwer to Lord J. RumelL There is also • letter of six
pages addressed by Mr. Cyril Graham, of Iteyroat, to Lord
Dufferin, giving • connected narrative of the massacres.
"Your lordship," observes Lord Dufferin, writing from
Paris to our Foreign Minister, " may rely with implicit
confidence on the aocmacy of all Mr. Graham's statements
of fact, as his knowledge of Arabic, and him personal ac-
qu►intance both with the Druse and Maronite populations,
combined with the opportunities he has bad of visiting the
places where these tragedies have occurred, will have given
him peculiar facilities for arriving at the truth. Your lord-
ship will perceive that Mr. Graham speaks with great
severity of the conduct of the Turkish authorities in Syria.
It will be the duty of the commission to ascertain how far
the impression which appears to prevail at Beyrout, in
regard to the complicity of the Turkish officers and troop%
can he substantiated by evidence ; but due allowance will
be made for the strength of Mr. Graham's expressions,
when it is remembered of what horrors he has been an eye-
witness."

The accounts in this narrative, :as well as those in the
letters of the consuls, all tell the same tale of treachery,
pillage, and murder. "In the whole war," writes Mr,
Graham, " there has been, perhaps, but one bright excep•
tion to the barbarity which has pervaded these wholesale
murders. The sister of the great Dross Chief, before the
massacre began, advised the Christians not to go to the moral.
She most probably knew what awaited them and offered to
shelter soy who came into her house. Unfortunately the
greater number mistreated her, but 400 creatures crowded
into her house, and when the murderers, panting for more
blood, demanded of her to give up the dogs of Christians,
she said, ' Enter if you dare and take them Even in such
a moment the Muses would not have dared to violate the
sanctity of the harem of one of their great princes, and
with muttered curses retired. The poor creatures she
carefully escorted herself to hiohktarsh, whence they were
dispstched to Sidon, and brought of by our menof•war
and landed at Beyrout."
Consul Brant's letters from Damascus, and indeed all
the despatches, implore pecuniary assistance. " I entreat,"
writes Mr. Brant on the 16th oh., " that pecuniary
aasistance be furnished me ; I have no means of my own,
and the calls en me are so heavy that I cannot long respond
to them. I have altogether under my roof nearly 200
people who depend on me for food, and I cannot foresee
when they can quit this asylum, or whither they can go.
All are homeless, penniless, and with only the clothes on
their backs ; I dread a sickness following ; I have but a
small stock of medicine, and no doctor to assist. I will not
fail in my duty be it as itevere as it may, but I cannot do
what is beyond my physical powers and my pecuniary
means."

Of the treaty of peace between the Christians and Drums,
our consul at Beyrout observes, " It is scarcely necessary to
say that the terms of this peace have been forced upon the
Christians, who it is impossible should willingly seal their
own ruin. Indeed the signatures on the side of the Chris-
tiana are confined to theKaimakan and petty functionaries."
