EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

PARIS, WIDNZSDAY ETSWING.

A very serious rumour caused considerable ex-
citement to-day. Some of the morning papers speak
in their money articles of a report circulating at the
end of the Bourse yesterday, that the French fleet
had bombarded Tetuan. The story was not widely
spread yesterday, and excited very little attention.
But today there comes a telegram from Madrid,
11 mentioned as current rumour only, that the French
squadron, having been fired upon from the forts of
Tangiers (not Tetuan), had bombarded that place.
A considerable fall at the Bourse was the conse-
quence of this news, although the truth of it was
very generally doubted. The Pays of this evening
Says:" Up to the hour at whieh we write, no au-
thentic confirmation of this news has reached Paris,
and oonaequntly there is reason to doubt its cor-
rectness." The feeble tone of this denial leads to the
inference that more must be known than the Pays
finds it convenient to state, and accordingly I have
ascertained that the French government has received
despatches referring to an untoward event which
gave rim to the report in question. It appears that
one of the Morocco forts, near Tangier@ or Tetuan (I
am not sure which), fired at a French man-of-war,
mistaking it for a Spanish one. The captain imme-
diately returned the fire, and in less than half an
hoar destroyed the offending fort. The French
admiral immediately demanded explanation@ from
the governor of Tangiers, and told him that if, as he
had reason to believe, the French ship wee fired on
by mistake, he would not hold the government of
Morocco responsible for the conduct of its officer, and
that the friendly relations between France and
Morocco would continue as heretofore.

The Bourse was greatly disturbed by the Madrid
telegram. The explaeations which I have above
given were not known there, and though the story
was generally believed not to be true, the Rente,
after opening with very great firmness, and rising to
70fr. 65c., closed at 70% 300., with a fall of 200.
both for cash and account. Mobilier fell Mr.
There was comparatively little business done in rail-
ways, and the prices were not much affected.
M. Billault is rapidly running up as heavy a
score of warnings against the press as that wiped off
by the lest amnesty. The Opinion Nationale has
one to-night for an article of Nov. 28, in which
occurs the following peerage This power (the
temporal power of the Pope) is a perpetual open sore
in the side of the catholic church; it lowers that
church in the face of the world." In the above
phrase M. Billault sees an insult to a foreign govern-
ment, and to the church of which the holy father
is the head. This is about the most foolish " warn-
ing" upon record. It was surely not worth while to
pick out these two or three lines of figurative
language from the middle of the newspaper
article when the treaty of Zurich, published by the
Moniteur yesterday, contains a far more stinging
libel upon the Papal government. It is there
solemnly recorded that the two great catholic powers
—France and Austria—with a view to "assure the
tranquillity of the States of tke Church and the
Holy Father's power, convinced that the object can
only be attained by the adoption of a system adapted
to the necessities of the population," have agreed to
unite their efforts to obtain from the Pope " reforms
admitted to be indispensable." The reforms thus
alluded to by the powers which dispute the title or
the eldest son of the church are those which Rome
has obstinately refused or evaded for ten
years pest, and which no sensible man

believes she will ever grant sincerely, or
efficaciously. It is notorious that the cardinals
who carry on the Pope's government now openly re
vile the Emperor of the French because he presses
further reforms. What miserable affectation, there-
tore, is it to attempt to curry favour with the church
by punishing a journal for simply stating the truth.
The Amide lo Religion publishes a letter front the
Pope to the Bishop of Orleans (Mgr. Dupanloup),
thanking him for the celebrated ultramontane pas-
toral letter of September last, which gave the tone
to all the others, provoked the Emperor's reproof to
the Archbishop of Bordeaux, and initiated a clerical
movement in favour of the Pope's temporal power
and his absolute right not only to govern badly but
to have his bad government supported by other
powers of so dangerous and anti-national a charms-
ter, that the French government, under the pretext
of protecting religion from irreverent discussion,
ordered the journals to leave off publishing the
bishop's mandates. The Pope does not shrink from
the most entire solidarity with the bishops, who,
indeed, must have acted under his express orders.
He congratulates the Bishop of Orleans on "the
sacerdotal zeal which distinguishes him," and takes
the opportunity to inform all bishops, that "amidst
the sad and perverse agitation of the present time,
his moat ardent desire is to see them courageously
defending the cause of God and the church," and
that their tirst duty is to protect the faithful from
"the thousand snares laid by wicked men, who, by
divers erroneous doctrines and perverse machinations
seek to corrupt minds and hearts."
Captain de la Fannie d'Etchique, a brother of

The case of the Arai de la Religion, pro.ecut.d for
publishing the letter falsely attributed to the King
of Sardinia, was called on this morning at the tri-
bunal of correctional police. In consequence of
the indisposition of the editor, the Abbe Sisson,
who intend' to defend himself, the hearing was put
off for a week.

The Tines pointa to the Premier u the only com-
petent representative of England at the approaching Con-
grant—. Were Lord Palmerston himself to go to Patio, he
would avoid the danger of an itiforior hand, he would have
no critic he need fear, and the British nation would readily
believe him to have done the Nat that c mid be done under
the circumstances. That he would himself desire logo is

what we can hardly expect ; but he would certainly lay Eng-
land under the greatest obligation, and redeem his European
fame from many an old calumny. Hitherto he has been
charged ,with disturbing settlements, and unmaking for
others to mend. In the present instance this disturbautoe is
from another quarter, and Italy haa been pulled to pieces
without so much as &alai England's leave. Lord Palmer-
merman' fur once hag been a spectator, and he is now celled
in to reset the broken limb which him Deepest onosand in vain.
Even should he tail, as he may malty do, the very attempt

only succeeded in offering some good suggestions to the moat

the warld."
