PARIS, TIIIIIDAT

The Emperor arrived at Angers at half-past six
yesterday evening. The authorities, informed of his
coming, hung the town with flags, and he made a
triumphal entry. Without loss of time he proceeded
to the lrelsze slate quarries. There he conversed
with several of the workmen. On leaving the quar-
ries his Majesty visited all the low parts of the town
which have been flooded. This morning (June 10) he
left Angers for Nantes, where he was expected to
arrive at about 2 o'clock to-day. The prefect accompa-
nied hie Majesty in a travelling carriage, the
railway between Angers and Nantes being still
impassable. The latest news from Nantes states
that the important embankment of the Divate,
which was reported some days since to be in a
perilous condition, has at length given way, but
owing to the general sinking of the waters, the
damage done is not so great as was apprehended.
The Emperor will sleep at Nantes to-night, and
leave for Paris at 7 to-morrow morning.

The news from the flooded districts in the South
of France is good. Both the Rhone and the Saone
an falling rapidly.
The Paris states distinctly that the rupture of
the Divate woe the cause of the Emperor's under-
taking his present journey to the Loire.

The following pa rsgreph, apparently written on
instrnotions, appear, in the Patric:
The attitude of England ig preszace of the pretensions
of the United States appears to be more sad more firm.
Hitherto the indastrial question has been of a nature to
exercise some Waimea. on the conduct of Great Britain.
bat, according to our infsrmation from Loudon, the Eng-
lish government is taking measures to render Ito policy alto-
gether iodependent of its material interests by encouragiog
the cultivation of cotton in its Indian possessions. Instruc-
tions with this view have, it is said, been despatched from
London.

I greatly suspect that this paragraph is written
with the intention of embittering a quarrel which all
good English and Americans would desire to see
brought to an end. One of the French journals had
a taunting article the other day, telling the Ameri-
cans that England could get cotton from Algeria.
God send that we may have no war with America at
all; but it would be an awful delusion if we were to
plunge into such a fratricidal enterprise with the ex-
pectation of help from France.

The Pay. is authorised to contradict a rumour that
M. de Molike, the Danish Minister in Paris, had
been recalled.

To-day, at one o'clock, M. Rasher, the Minister of
Agriculture, Commerce, and Public Works, distri-
bated the prizes awarded to the successful competi-
tors at the universal cattle show and agricultural
exhibition. A state room, hung with red velvet,
was fitted up for the ceremony at the west end of
the Falai& de l'lndustrie. A number of senators and
deputies attended. A very large proportion of the
prize owners answered to their names, and received
personally their due recompense from the hands of
the minister. Some of them who were called up
reF:atedly were loudly cheered by the spectators.
The band of the Guides attended.

The Bourse has again been exceedingly heavy.
The Rents feU 50c. for cash and 230. for account,
closing at 71fr. and 71fr. 500. Credit Mobilise fell
32fr. 600. The Orleans Railway fell 30fr.; Lyons,
26fr.; and Mediterranean, 30fr.

The municipality of Paris has sent a paragraph to
the journals which is intended to console the numb.
roue foreigners who are disappointed at not receiving
tickets for the ball to be given at the hotel on the
occasion of the baptism of the Imperial Prince. The
city of Paris, it is said, has ever made it a rale to ex-
tend the largest measure of hospitality to foreigner&
But on this particular occasion it is considered that
the claims of French subjects ought especialy to be
attended to. Large ari the melons of the Hotel de
V►lle are, it has been unfortunately found neesseary
to refuse an immense number of applications from
Parisian families.

Cardinal Patrizzi, the Papal Legate, arrived in
Paris at Ave o'clock yesterday evening. A railway
eatriage, richly ornamented, had been sent down to
Lyons expressly for the accommodation of the Legate
and of the persons who accompanied him. The
Count de Vaulehier, and MM. Gustave, de Roths-
child, and Chapron, directors of the company, were
in waiting at the station to receive his Eminence.
The Cardinal, who appears about 67 or 68 years of
age, wore a close-fitting skull cep, and a
scarlet silk deems. His Emineuoe, on his arri-
val, wee received by the Duke de Catabaciree, Grand
'master of the ceremonies, accompanied by an equerry
of the Emperor. The Minister of Public Worship,
the Archbishop of Bordeaux, and the Archbishop of
Paris were oleo present, as were the Bishop of Adras,
chaplain of his Majery, and the chaplains of the
Imrrial chapeL Six of the court carriages were in
waiting. The cross-bearer of the Legate, with the
woes, entered the first, and the Legate and the other
high personages present the others, and proceeded
towards the Tuileries, mooned by a squadron of the
Guides.

The Moniteur announces that Prince Napoleon is
about to undertake a scientific voyage to the North
Bea. He leaves Paris to morrow for Havre, to
superintend in person the equipment of the Reine
Hortense and the Cocyte, •bich have been placed at
his disposal. He will return to Paris to take part in
the baptismal ceremonies; and will afterwards em-
bark at Havre on the morning of the 15th. The ex-
padition is expected to occupy three months.
