TRIEM, Jun 26.

The statement of the Turin journals that the
captain of the port of Pols had compelled a mer-
chant vessel sailing under Sardinian coloursto hoist
the pontifical flag is incorrect.
The captain only explained the new Austrian
regulations relative to ahips belonging to the pro-
vinces annexed to Piedmont, which requires that
no vessels from Tuscany, Modena and the Lega-
tions shall hoist the Sardinian flag in an Austrian
port.

These regulations, however, do not compel such
vessels to hoist the flag of any other nation.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

PARIS, MONDAY EVEYING.

The Constitntimnet, Pays, and Petrie contain no-
, crological articles, encircled with a black border,
announcing the death of Prince Jerome Bonaparte,
the last surviving brother of the great Napoleon.
The Opinion Nationale has the following testi-
monial, signed by M. Gueronet :
The last relic of a glorious epoch—associated while yet
young with the splendours of the first empire, which he de-
fended at Waterloo as an heroic soldier, it was Prince
Jerome's lot, by a marvellous change of fortune, to see his
family restored to honours and power, ho all the while re-
maining what he had been—a child of 'B9, passionately de-
voted to the glory and liberty of his country. His voice
—always listened to—was ever on the side of moderation.
A friend of free discussion, he lent an efficacious support to
the difficult tusk of founding the Opinion Nutionak.
Amidst the many honours which will be paid to his me-
mory, we here tender the obscure but sincere homage of
our profound gratitude.
The fact mentioned by the Opinion Nationale
that the deoeased prince, in the last days of his old
age, interested himself in the foundation of a liberal
journal, was not, I believe, generally known.
All the theatres are closed this evening.

The body of the Prince will be removed from
Villegenis to the Palais Royal, where it will lie in
state. An extraordinary council of ministers was
convoked this day at Fontainebleau for the purpose,
no doubt, of discussing the question of the funeral.
There tan be little doubt that the Emperor
will have his uncle interred at St. Denis. An
imperial decree of last year assigned that cathedral
as the burial-place of the imperial family. It is
well known that he wishes to see the remains of
Napoleon I. transferred from the Invalides to that
sepulchre of the Kings of France. Prince Jerome,
who was proud of his office of guardian of the
imperial tomb, was understood to be opposed to
any disturbance of it as long as ho lived, but now
the Emperor's wish, that the founder of his dynasty
should lie in the vault which he is represented as
selecting for himself by a painting on one of the
panes of glass iu the cathedral, will probably be
carried into effect. The removal, so far as public
opinion may be supposed to entertain any scruples
about it, would be facilitated by the prior inter-
ment there of Prince Jerome. It would be only
natural that the two brothers should lie side by side
—Napoleon I. being placed in the vault intended to
be the first of a long series, devoted to the recep-
tion of a new line of sovereigns. .

All the guests at Fontainebleau left to-day, and
the court will remove this evening to St. Cloud for
the days of mourning.
It is rumoured that a difficulty in the way of the
Emperor's desire to bury his family at St. Denis is
that Prince Jerome, continuing his opposition in
this respect after death, has expressed in his will a
desire to be interred in the Invalided.
The Bourse, notwithstanding three fine days and

a decidedly favourable change in the coru market,
wheat having fallen lfr. the hectolitre, and flour
2fr. the sack within a week, was very heavy. Lord
John Russell's speech on the Swiss question was
the theme of a good deal of anxious discussion,
The Rente fell 35c. for cash, and 30c. for account,
closing at 68fr. 40c. and 68fr. 46c. Mobilier
fell Ur. In railways there was very little businem
done. The Orleans line fell Mr., and most of the
others lfr. 25c. Besiersand Oraissessac rose 10fr„
There was a great crowd all day at the Bank of
France to subscribe for the new railway obligations.
A Marseilles letter says :

The French government has just purchased 161,000 her.
tolitres of wheat in this market. Of that quantity 80,000
are to be delivered immediately, and the remainder very
shortly. The whole is said to be intended for the military
storehouses in the Nord. As soon as these purchases
became known, a rise of about lfr. the hectolitre took place.
General Count de Rumigny, one of Louis
Philippe's aides-de-camp, died yesterday at his
residence at Maisonrouge.
