Political news is quite unimportant.
The recent election in New York was so close that
the result was still in doubt.

The suspension of Slate, Gardner, and Co., mer-
chants, New York, is announced, but the amount of
liabilities is not stated.

Much anxiety was felt for the steamship North

large number of passengers for California. She was
much overdue.

Advice, from Mexico to the 6th say that Marquee
boldly avows that his seizure of the three millions con-
ducts we. for patriotic purposes. He was expected
at the capital, and would probably mums the pre-
sidency, being the favourite of the church party.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

PARIS, Sexue EVENING.
The Pays (Count Walewski's organ) has a rather 1
remarkable argumentative article upon the jurisdic-
tion of the outing congress. Fueled by the diffi-
calty of reconciling the universally admitted propo-
sitioe, that the great powers who will sit in the con-
gress are not to impose by force upon the Italians a
government contr►ry to their expressed wishes, with
the opposition of France to the annexation of Cem
teal Italy to Sardinia, it accuses the partisans of the
Italian cause of confounding two things " evidently
distinct," namely, " non-intervention, which is •
general principle, with the execution of the deci-
sions of the congress." This distinction, which
is certainly not very plain in itself, becomes
hardly more so by the aid of the explanations
of the Pays, which, theless, I must attempt
to render. It says, then, that " non-intervention, sa
practised by European states, is an expression refer-
ring solely to the internal regimen which indepen-
dent states may please to adopt," bat that it is
altogether inapplicable to "a change in the extent
and external configuration of a state." The English
of this, as I understand it, is that the Pays is in-
structed to construe the Emperor's promise of non-
intervention in Italy by the "letter which killeth,"
and to threaten that if the Italian populations pro-
ceed to effect that which was the spirit and life of
their declarations of independence, viz., annexa-
tion to Sardinia, force will be used to
prevent them, and to leave them no choice be-
twesa anarchy and the provisions of Villa-
francs. At the same time I must remark that
the Pays speaks less confidently end less insolently
than it did some time ago. It affects to be full of
deference for a congress, and admits hypothetically
that the preliminaries of Villafrsnca may not ulti-
mately be sanctioned. Suppose, it says, that the con-
gress should consent to the annexation,what is to hap-
pen if the Duke of Modena should come at the head of
an army to regain possession of his states ? Would not
the King of Sardinia oppose him by force, and
would he not thereby " execute by force the deci-
aim of the congress ?" It may, I think, be answered
to this dilemma that in the case supposed the
King of Sardinia would merely defend territory of
which he was appointed sovereign by the will of the
inhabitants. That would be his primary and best
dike The congress might see fit to sanction it, bat
the difficulty assumed by the Part would only arise
in cue the united forces of all the powers sitting in
the congress should combine to fight the Duke of
Modena. Again, and in another point of view, the
Pays, arguing that the decisions of the congress
must necessarily be obligatory, and not (as his been
said) merely consultative, inquires what would hap-
: pen if tie King of Sardinia should in congress posi-
tively refuse to accept the annexation. This suppo-
sition raises in reality no difficulty at all.
Of coarse if, what is to the last degree
improbable, the King of Sardinia should
refuse, the annexation cannot take plus so long se
ha is king. But the thwarting of the wishes of
, Central Italy by that means would not be an execu-
tion of the decision of the congress in the sense
meant by the Pays. The congress would operate
upon the King of Sardinia, and only incidentally
upon the people of Central Italy. No force would
, be used towards them. The arguments of the Pays,
therefore, do not in any way bear out its position
that the decision of the congress cannot be mssely
consultative, and that common sense requires that
its fiat should be obligatory. I should, however, be
sorry to advocate the convocation of a congress
whose verdict woe to have no sanction. There is, I
believe, no precedent for such an idle assemblage
of the plenipotentiaries' of the leading powers of the
world. This consideration points to the necessity
for that mature reflection, before agreeing to a con-
gress, upon which you insisted from the beginning.
It is as yet by no means certain that the congress
will meet, although undoubtedly the general opinion
is that it will.

News has arrived from Athens of the death in that
city, after a very short illness, of H. Charlie
Lenormant, a member of the Institute, a professor of
the College of France, and keeper of the collection
of medals, who was travelling in Greece with his
son, a lad of tender years.
ht. Vries (better known as the Black Doctor) was
yesterday arrested on a charge of manslaughter, a
patient of his having died in consequence, as it is
alleged, of treatment prescribed by him erase ipso-
'mufti. You may remember that some months ago
I gave you an account of the extraordinary proceed-
ings of this personage at the Cancer Hospital, in
which, by still more extraordinary influence, he had
been permitted to practise.

PARIS, SATURDAY EVENING.

The canard which had poses esion of Paris yester-
day and the day before, about Lord Cowley and a
general disarmament, is now completely blown out
of the water by a telegram from London. I yester-
day traced the course of this invention, which I never '
accepted u credible. It was born at the PIA/
Bourse of Wednesday. A telegraphic agency trans-
mitted it to London on Thursday as coining from a
" reliable source "in Paris. Yesterday (Friday) the
same telegraphic agency brought it beck to Parts
as a piece of original London news certified to be
authenticated by the riffles. The farce is now
played out. The Pays takes credit to itself for
having published the false news "with all reserve,"
and the Petrie, still more sagacious, reminds its
readers that it never took any notice of it at all.
Requieseai Os pace.
The Bourse was flatter to-day in consequence of
the contradiction of the news of a proposal for a
general disarmament. tee Rance fell to 70.10 and
70.6, but it became firmer for the close, leaving off
at 70.16 for cash and account, being a tall of dc.
from yesterday. Mobilier tall 1.26. Railways were
about 1.26 lower.

Madame Demidoff, the wife of Colonel Eugene
Demidoff, of the Imperial Gliard, died on Thursday.
Her body, after being embalmed by Dr. Gannal, lay
in state to-day, and will remain exposed till Monday,
when the funeral takes place.

let you have, but I em from Bermuda, bound for St. Thomas,
end if you like to go there I will take you in tow." Captain
Johneon mid it would take his whole vowel and cargo to pay
him for such NTT-idle, and he could not think of it. Captain
Hinkley tapped him on the shoulder, and said, "Nava mind,
old boy," palatal, to Ole vessel, "that I. bar British

We ham received by the Overland Mail advises
from Calmat& to Oct. 22. The Doorga Poojah holi-

Venom rumours are afloat relative to the rebels In Nepaul.
One report is that the Nana I. dad, another that he bee
joined hie Banana, bat since then we have been told that there
wee a coaaultation in the Nana's camp on the Ilth lust., end
the several leaders agreed to unite their forces and place them
under the Nana's orders. The whole rebel form is estimated
at 14,600 men. Of this number 7,000 have come in tram
different place@ to the Nana's camp. Debee Singh has 6,000,
and 2,000 are with the Begun and Munn= Khan, whilst a
detachment of 600 are in the jungle neer Bilsra. One thing
is oertaiu, that the rebels have left their fastnerses in the
hills, and advanced to within a few miles of our frontier. •
short time since, 16 men were carried off from the Om-
ruckpors district, and raids have been made into other partsof
our territory. Jung Bahadoor has ordered the retell to leave
Nepaul, and he has sent severel regiments towards the west
far the proms, it is said, of expelling them. If this he the
ore air troops may soon have an opportunity of attacklag
them. Jung Behadoor, we apprehend, is on his way to
meet the Governor-Osamal to obtain a portion of the Onde
