made public. It may be that this is consonant
with the usage of some governments, but the re-
sult is that the country is kept in the dark, which
ought not to be.
The Civil Tribunal of the Seine, presided by M.
Benoit Champy, heard yesterday the arguments in
an action brought by M. Raoul Du Bisson
(better known as Count Du Bisson, Chevalier
Du Bisson, or General Count Du Bisson) again*
the sporting joneal the Derby and the hent•
Cons journal the Figaro. The declaration states
that the defendants falsely and maliciously published
in their journals articles denying the truth of his
narrative of his adventures in Abyssinia ; that the
said articles were calculated to injure his interests
in the East, more especially as he has an action
pending against the Viceroy of Egypt growing out
of his expedition to Abyssinia, and moreover of a na-
ture to injure his reputation as an honest man, and
to hurt his credit whenever he may undertake any
new enterprise. Wherefore he lays his damages at
20,000 fr.
The imperial advocate Chevrier gave it as his
opinion that the court would find it very difficult
to say that M. Du Bison's acts in those distant
countries had been improperly described. There
had already been a sort of international inquiry,
which had left the French government itself very
much in the dark ; and he did not see that there
was sufficient evidence to enlighten the court.
This much, however, he felt bound to say,
that M. Du Bisson had not deserted his
companions, and left them without resource. On
that point the journals ought to have been more
careful, and he thought that on principle there
ought to be a verdict with some damages. Judg-
ment will be delivered on Wednesday next.
The Bourse was extremely buoyant. Rents rose
20c. for cash and 15c. for account, closing at
69fr. 20c. and 69fr. 10c. Italian rose 25c., and

The New Prigs:ion, (Cross) G :ctte of this even-

of the great powers have given in their adhesion
to the conference. England and Russia maintain
their previous attitude. Prussia reserves her,
decision, awaiting a reply to the questions which'
she addressed to the French government on the
reception of the invitation to the conference.
Other governments have given either evasive
replies or none at all." • •
