SUPPLEMENT TO 111. SECRETARY EDMONSTONE'S
MESSAGE DATED THE 16TH OF NOVEMBER.
CENTRAL INDIA.

The rebel forte under Tenth Topes remained inl
the Bindwara districts of the Nsgpore province for
four or five days. On the Bth of November they
passed twenty-five miles mouth-east of Baltool,
and continued their course via Sautnair and
Meil Ghent towards Boorhaunpoor. On the 14th
they crossed the Taptee River, and proceeded in the
direction of Manirod and Dbar to the Nerbudda.
They reached Acbarpoor, on the south bank of the
Nerbudda, on the 21st. All the forts on the north
bank of this river are guarded. The British forces
are in close pursuit. Troops have been concentrated
at Sindwa and Chnpra to prevent the enemy entering
Candeish.

The Banda Nawab has left the rebel camp, and
L on his way to Major-General Michel.
Adil Mahomed and his party have separated from
Tantia Topee, and are now with Mann Singh near

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(PROW ouR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

PARIS, TUESDAY EVEN:NO.

The Grand Duke Constantine of Russia is ex-
pected in Paris on Sunday next. It his been
reported that his visit would not take place
in consequence of the illness of the Em.
press Dowager, but I believe her state is
not so dangerous as to necessitate any change in his
plans. We hear that the Czar of Russia has dis-
missed M. Mouriavieff, the Intendant of the Crown,
because he secretly opposed the emancipation of the
serfs.

The forty-six stockbrokers who, as I :previously
mentioned, got up a petition to government for the
suppression of that corporation of outsiders desig-
nated as the couliese, yesterday held a meeting to
consider what measures could be adopted for the
furtherance of their own interests. lam told that
no less than fifteen propositions were submitted to
the meeting, all of which it wu voted were worthy
of being referred to the consideration of the syndi.
cate of the Bourse. The contest between the
parquet and the coulisss is of no recent date. When
speculation is rife, when railway manias, canal
manias, dock manias, isthmus cutting manias,
are in their meridian of froth, the parquet,
which profits by the activity of the coulisse, winks
at its irregularity. But when, as is now, and has
long since been the case, speculative transactions are
rare, the parquet covets the aid of the law to
monopolise all the brokerage going for its own
benefit. The question is no doubt complicated ; but
to suppose that if any change is to be made, the
change will be prompted by genuine considerations
of public morality and public interest would be to
indulge in hope against experience.
The Bourse has been very quiet, with a down-
ward tendency. The Rents fell 25c. for cash, and
sc. for account, closing at 721 r. 90c., and 73fr. 100.
Mobilier fell 61r. 25c. Railways were about 21r. 50c.
lower. Bank of France shares, in which business
is rarely transacted, were done at a fall of 40fr. in
consequence of a rumour that the dividend will be
very bad—only something like 52fr. as compared
with upwards of 80fr. last time.
The weekly commercial review of the Presse
records scarcely any change from last week's report.
There is a certain activity in Paris, consequent upon
the approach of New Year'rday, but business with
foreign countries is slack, and there is no speculation
going on.
The Empress and the Princess Mathilde yesterday
paid an unexpected visit to Prince Napoleon, at the
offices of hie Ministry of Algeria and the Colonies.
They walked through the offices just u the candles
were being lit at dusk, and made some polite re-
marks to the clerks.

M. Berard, one of the most eminent physicians in
Paris, and an inspector of the medical schools, died
two days since, of apoplexy, and was buried to-day.
Recent letters from Madrid repeat the rumour
which was current some time sine, that Queen
Christina and Marshal Narvaez are completely
reconciled.

MUSIC.

M. JULLIENT CONCERT.

Madame Anna Bishop, who is engaged for the
remainder of those concerto, appeared last evening, and had
an enthusiastic reception from one of the moat crowded
audiences of the season. She fiat sang the air "Gratin
animus tibi," which she had sung at her own concert on the
preceding evening. She sang it beautifully, as before; lm
its effect was impaired by a strange and unwarrantable
liberty taken with the music the obligee° clarinet accom-
peniment was played on a date, and thus the fine passages
in dialogue, between the voles and the instrument, were
sadly spoiled. We wear Decd nab a thing before, and hope
we shall ant haw ft sada. Madame Bishop's next per-
formonos will Meares " Oft Is the stilly night," which she
sang, it possible, ova men charmingly then she had done
the night before. It was a pia of melody, simpliaity, and
feelieg. The audience listened with ►nand &undo'', and
at its dose burst into a perfect Worm of delight. When the
acclamations ceased, in place of repeating the balled, she
sang another, " Rome, sweet home," with equal beauty sad
equal success. In short, she achieved a greet trtanmis In
1 spades of music which, simple and stay as it may seem, odh
forth the very finest qualities of a singer.
The remainder of the concert presented se novelty. The
Wady."' pieces wore the overture to Eery/inns, the andante
hose Mcwast's " Jupiter Symphony," Idendebeelm's con-
certo played by Wieniewski, and the operatic selection from
the AvyreAstz, all admirably performed and warmly re-
wind.

These occoerts will take place every night this week,
aad next Saturday will biting the season to a conclusion.
