EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(PION OUR OWN CORILWIPONDINT.)
PARIS, NVIIIDNRSDAT ETRNINO,

There is a well accredited report that the Emperor
of Russia has instructed • broker to purchase
1,000,000'r. of French Bantu, an amount which
represents at par, a capital of upwards of
33,000,000. The great rite at the Bourse
to-clay, which I notice below, was probably
due in s great degree to this circumstance,
although, I believe, the French journals will not be
permitted to attribute it to any such cause. It is
thought that the Czar will continue his purchases so
long as the Rents remains under 70fr.
The Bonne was excessively buoyant all day, and
the improvement which has been remarked all
the week made marked progress. The Rente rose
55c. for cub, and 60c. for account, closing at
67k. 75c. and„67fr. 70c. Mobilier rose 60fr., and
Bank of Francs 100:'r. Railways were in extraor-
dinary
demand. Orleans rose 1.5 fr.; Northern,
26fr.; Eastern, 30fr.; Lyons, 20fr.; Mediterranean,
35k. ; Western, 30:r.; Grand Central, 20fr.; and
Bt. Barnhart to Grenoble, 40fr. The Austrian lines
rose 18fr. 7k., and the Sardinian 20fr.
A Belgian journal gives the following pies of
news, of which I have no kaewledge from soy other
wares :
It le assesseed that a committees of hoses swans has
bees formed la Pair* foe the purpose of procuring a /edite-
d's a aim* or a third la the rent of all apartments
under 6000.

M. Lapiewre, commander of Le Tartars, has ad-
dressed a loner to ths Mositeur ds is Eons, in which

he formally contradicts the statement publicly made
by Mr. Brett, to the effect " that the failure incurred
in laying down the submarine telegraph to Algiers
proceeded from the commander of Le Tartare having
mistaken the latitude." M. Lapierrc attributes the
said failure to the fact of the Dutchman, which con-
veyed the able, not having followed in the wake of
Le Testate, and of having thus unshipped an immense
quantity of unnecessary cable.
Intelligence has been received from the colony of
Innis that most serious difficulties have arisen
between M. Cabot and his disciples. At a grand
meeting, held at Nauvoo on Oct. 23, the majority of
the colonists passed a vote definitively banishing him
from the colony.

PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING.
The extraordinary example set by M. Procureur
Imperial Wiese of reading the judges a political
lecture has been followed by the prccureuriegeneraux
in the provinces to such an extent as to prove con-
clusively the existence of a mat d'ordre emanating
from a high quarter. With scarcely an exception,
the local journals of the great towns, which are pub-
lished under the dictation of the prefects, have in the
course of this month taken cot:anion to present to their
readers the " remarkably firm, elevated, energetic,
and yet conciliatory" speech with which M. le Pro-
curter General So and So " rivetted the attention of
his auditory." One of the most remarkable specimens
of the official eloquence now in vogue is the speech
delivered on Saturday last before the assembled
judges of the Court of Orleans by M. Procureur
General Martinet on his installation to the office.
Verily it was well said of old that "a man's foes are
they of his own household," for this Imperial procu•
rear's speech is more calculated to raise doubts in sober
minds of the stability of the present regime in Francs
I than all the articles put together of that foreign
press whose "odious calumnies" are so bitterly com-
plained of. M. Martinet, after a complimentary
exordium of the anal kind, defined his own duty as
procureargeneral to be that of directing repression
throughout the district within his jurisdiction. Ho
quoted a text from Joseph Maistre to prove the un-
contested position that society Iv nld be in confusion
if crime were to go unpunished. Bat then, following
precisely in the wake of M. Valise, of Paris, he said
that the procureus-general had other and higher
duties than the repression of ordinary crimes., He
referred to duties common to himself and
to the judges whom he addressed, flowing
directly from the oath of fidelity which they
had taken to the sovereign—he meant their
political duties. It was his opinion that the senti-
ment of the duties involved in that oath—a certain
guide (the oath namely) for the mind and conscience
—should be the predominant feeling with all of them.
Anticipating the objection, which is indeed very com-
-1 manly urged, and which till lately was thought a
good one, that political speeches addressed to the
judicial beech are out of piece, he said he could see
no harm in reminding the judges that their first duty
was not to forget the oath they had taken to their
sovereign, "that oath the surest guide in moments of
trouble and hesitation." He loved and respected, of
course, more than an 3 body, the independence of the
judges. A judge without independence was a sus-
pected judge. But he averred the judges knew as well
as he did that nobody asked them to be subservient,
and was it then so difficult, while preserving their
independence, to remain devoted to the power,which
had created them ? As to those sceptical persons
who, ungratefully forgetful of past perils fromwhich
the Emperor had delivered them, thought there was
no danger now, he would say to them, in the words of
a great moralist," When the people is in movement,
nobody can conceive how they can ever become quiet
again; and when they are peaceable no one sees in
what way the calm can be disturbed." That say-
ing of Labruye-e was so profoundly true, that it was
applicable even to the present glorious calm, which
they owed to the restorer of the Napoleonio
dynasty. He then dwelt for some time upon the happy
calm, swore that he had an " absolu.e confidence "
in its duration, and called Ond to witness that hehad
not the least alarm for the future. But then be fell
back for the fourth and fifth time upon the oath,
"the oath always sacred, but moat especiallly inviol-
able when it binds us to such a prince. The extra-
ordinary awkwardness of this continual reference to
an 'oath under the peculiar circumstances of the
foundation of the government which M Martinet so
zealously supports, must strike every reader of modern
history. He dwells upon it, howaver, still further,
extols the oath as a " support to him who has taken
it," . invokes the oath as his guide against the
clamour,, the rancour, and the menaces, if, " which
there is nothing to indicate," parties should again raise
their heads, and proclaims that the oath will ever be
to him his law, and his filth, and his guiding star.
After having thus shown himself armed at all pinta
against a danger of which he has no apprehension, he
proceeds to fulminate in the blowing extraordinary
fashion against hypothetical enern'es

whose spirit of COVCOUSISSIS is their on!) motive, and whoa

with their polity, and I need not trouble myself about it.
But besides these men, who are rejected by everybody,

dream of that impossibility—estate without any opposition. I

ship shall be practised with dignity and loyalty. But what

It would be curious to see the secret Felice reports
which led to the above extraordivary sally on the
part of a grave functionary, who welha every word

evident (for the hackneyed rhetorical artifices, con.

that such a preen is cot a ay mptonn that, to borrow
a phrase of M. Martinet, " the country ii more calm
