PARIS. WEDNESDAY EVENING.

The Garihaldian agitation by no means appears
to end with the retirement of the head of the move-
ment to Caprera. Indeed there are only too evi-
dent signs of coming trouble in connexion with it.
A letter in the Piedmentese Gazette of yesterday,
from Florence, says that the government has ad-
dressed a circular to its representatives abroad
calling the attention of the cabinets of Europe to
the necessity of settling the Roman question. The
document sets forth the opinion of the country, as
well as the contradiction existing between the
wishes and what is deemed to be the duty of the
people, which condition of things, it says, has been
brought about by the convention of September.
M. Nigra, the Italian Minister, has gone to
' Biarritz, in connexion with this question, and
persOnal interviews and correspondence are fre-
quent between the Emperor and some of the
members of the cabinet of the Tuileries.

I hear, upon tolerably good authority, that a
change of ministry is imminent, that the Marquis

ter of Finance, retaining the functions of Minis-
ter of State.

The commission sitting in Brussels on the re-
organisation of the Belgian army has resolved to

recommend to the chambers the adoption of an

tutes and exonerations, and the embodiment of a
militia of 30,000 men in case of war.
In the Bavarian Chamber of Representatives,
the Minister of War has made a demand for sup-
plementary credits amounting to three millions.
Letters from Algeria give deplorable accounts of
the want and suffering entailed upon the Arabs,
owing to the sadly-deficient harvest this year.
Some correspondents state that, notwithstanding
the efforts of the government to relieve these suf-
ferings, no fewer than 30,000 natives have suc-
cumbed to the wretchedness of their situation.
Some complaints are made as to the partiality with
which the succour, in various shapes, is distributed,
an undue proportion, it is alleged, being meted
out to the military, as compared with the civil
territory.
The Don Carlos, by Verdi, will be performed at
the Opera to-night, on the return of the famous
singer, M. Faure.

The Bourse still continues to exhibit all tho
features of a panic. The Threes, which closed
yesterday at 68fr. 40c., are now at 68fr. ; tho
Italian, yesterday at 47fr. 10fr., closed at 46fr•
All other securities have a very notioeable down-
ward tendency. The last quotation of Credit
Mobilier was 167 fr. 60c.

It is thought that the Empress of Austria, on
account of her pregnancy, will not accompany the Emperor
Francis Joseph to Paris.

ritz, bu now returned to Spain.

The number of persons who passed through the

We read in Galignani :—" Intelligence from Ca-
tanzaro, in Calabria Ultra, in the Kingdom of Naples, an-
nounces that Mr. Jerome Strange, captured by the band of
Piro, has been restored to liberty on paying a ransom of
80,000 fr. The money, it appears, was a day late, and in
consequence Mr. Strange had his right ear cut off."
