EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(rams oul owx cioaassrosnixa)
PARIS, FIUDAT EVENING.
Nothing is more certain than that the great
step taken by the Italian army of crossing the
Italian frontier was taken, not with the consent of
France, but in spite of her. It is beyond all con.
troversy that the request made by the Marquis
Pepoli that a " mixed occupation" might be
allowed was refused, and that M. Nigra informed
his government that if General Lamarinora was
coming to reiterate the same petition he might Pave
himself the trouble. At the same time, although
I look upon war u inevitable, the French govern-
ment has, I believe, acted within the last few hours
in such a way as to favour the belief that it is hesi-
tating. I learn from a good source that M. Nigra
yesterday, when he informed the Marquis de
Moustier that Victor Emmanuel was so pressed by
his subjects that he could not choose but enter the
Roman states, begged him to give such orders as
might prevent the French troops from coming into
collision with the Italians. The French, he said,
were welcome to chase Garibaldi from Rome, and
when he fell back upon the Italian lines he would
be disarmed, although the Italian troops could
not fire upon him. The French government, I
have reason to believe, affected to catch at this
disreputable compromise, if not in its entirety, at
least as the basis of an arrangement which might
prevent the dire necessity of war between France
and Italy. Telegrams were sent off yesterday, the
answer to which is expected before M. Boniface
will be authorised to speak again.
The Moniteur, while pretending to give the
latest news from Italy which the interruption of
telegraphic communication allows, does not so
much as notice the undoubted fact of the invasion
of the Pope's states by Victor Emmanuel's army.
The Prase thinks that " if the Patric was a little
premature in representing as irrevocably accom-
plished a fact unfortunately too probable, the Con-
stitutional makes an abusive use of the diplomatic
privilege of denying the existence of inevitable
events up to the moment of their official avowaL4'

The utmost hope of the peace party in Franee
at the present moment and a fragile hope
indeed it is—lies in this, that in obedience to the
protest from France sent off yesterday,. Victim
Emmanuel, after a " barren promenade" in the
Papal states, will retire and leave France to do as
she likes in Rome.

The telegrams of the day, meagre as they are,
show that the course of events points in a widely
different direction. While the Monitertr affirms
that the news of the landing of a French force at
Civita Vecchia was received with " joy" by the
Roman population, the Florence despatches at-
test the joyful reception of the Italian troops
vnierever they appeared in the Roman states,
and these latter reports mention the tangible facts
I that wherever the Italian troops appeared the
Italian flag was hoisted in substitution for that
of the Pope, and that in many places a plebiscite
declared the district in which it took place
I annexed to Italy. The antagonism between the
French and the Italian occupation of the Pope's
dominions is not doubtful. Whatever miraculous
work Garibaldi may achieve it is impossible that
the Italian army will voluntarily undo.
This being one of the four great holidays of the
year, All Saints Day, there is no Bourse to be
quoted as the barometer of the news.

The Royal Mail Company's steamship Oneida,
Captain Leeds, with the above mails, has arrived. She
brings 43 passengers, specie 62,203!., seven packages din.
moods, value not stated ; also 638 bales cotton, 410 barrels
tapioca, 50 barrels arrowroot, 100 half chests oranges,
casks wine, 2,216 bags coffee, and 1M packages sundries.
The Oneida experienced strong northerly winds to Per.
nambuco, then light S.E. trades to 4 deg. N., light bead
winds from St. Vincent to Lisbon, thence to southaniptor
similar weather.

Her Majesty's ships Egmont, Narcissus, Nassau, and
Sharpshooter were at Rio de Janeiro.
BURMA AIRES, Seer. 26.

The Paraguayan war still drags along. The position of
the army is in no way changed ; the iron-clad fleet rests
at anchor between Humaita sad Curupaiti. The Brazilians
hold the Gran Chaco, and maintain easy cornmunb
cation with their fleet, although by water the
Curupaiti fortress cuts them off. The bulk of the
allied army is at Tuyu-Cue under President Mitres.
Port Alegre holds his ground at Tuyuti, and Lopez
with his forces is in his encampment at Humaita.
It is considered almost impossible to storm Lopez's position
with the force at the comnuindof the Allier, and to besiege
Hurnalta would require • force ten times that of the
Allies. It is supposed the tactics of the Allied commander
is to put up • battery on the Chaco shore above Humaita,
hold the river in check, and force Lopez to draw supplies
and recruits by land, hold the enemy on its present footing
before Humaita, and despatch • strong division to the inte-
rior of the enemy's country, and harass his supplies.
Peace is the everyday talk.

The state of the Upper Argentine provinces is =Safi&
factory. A baud of invaders have entered the province of
Salta, and gained an advantage over the government
troops. No permanent peace can be expected until the
Paraguayan war is ended.
Fine rains have fallen, improving the prospects of the
farmer, ; the Rocks are in excellent condition—the in-
crease of the flecks throughout the country is .13 per cent.
It is estimated that there are from 12 to 13 millions more
sheep in the country this year than last.
Exchange rules at 4Si ; money about R per cent. per
annum; N►tional Bond*, 54a. Exchange on France is 5.07.
RIO DR JANEIRO, Ocr. 9.

The reports relative to negotiations of peace between
the belligerents are not confirmed by the arrival of the
mail packet Arno, the general opinion is that Lopez cannot
be negotiated with, and that he will never be induced by
feelings of patriotism alone to yield up his rule upon the
Paraguayans. Several cargoes of munitions have been
mat on during the last fortnight.
A number of the seta passed by the Gtmeral Auvemlif
have received the imperial sanction, among others the
Land and Sea Forces Bills, and that of Revenue and Lk
pendito re.
Extraordinary credits have been granted to the mine
tries of War and Marine, the former receiving that d
22,456,004 dots. for the extra expenses of the Brat half d
the present fiscal year, and the latter 7,807,000 &ILI°
the extra expenses of the whole year.
The cannonading and bombarding of Curupaiti and
amounts by the Allied batteries and ships continued with
out intermission, and was replied to by the Paraguayan.
The allies were endeavouring to fortify a position at Polar,
twelve miles distant from the camp, with the view to send
cavalry expeditions into the interior of Paraguay.
The latest news as to the negotiations for peace through
Mr. Gould, English Secretary of Legation, is that
Lopez repudiated the terms proposed, declaring he would
not give up the supreme power in Paraguay.

MONEY MARKET.-(THIS DAY.

011 ethaez.

There is an increased belief amongst the mem-
bers of the Stock Exchange that the Roman ques-
tion will be settled without any serious difficulty,
and the markets for public securities are conse-
quently firm. The amount of business is rather
considerable for a Saturday, and coubists
almost entirely of purchases. Italian Bonds
of 1861, the supply of which is limited,
have been bought by recent speculators for
a fall, and have risen g per cent. Consols have
improved 1 per cent., and moat of the chief British
railway stocks to 1. Caledonian is in good de-
mand, and has advanced upwards of 1 per cent.
The inquiry extends to some of the banking and
miscellaneous shares.

Notwithstanding the approach of the 4th, the
discount market is quiet. The rate for the best
paper is, however, firm, at 1 k per cent., transac-
tions at 1# being exceptional. Advances for a
few days on English government securities are
offered on the Stock Exchange at 1 to 1k per cent.
Consols are quoted 94# to k both for money and
the 7th inst., and the Three per Cents. Reduced
and New Three per Cents., 821 to 1.
The railway market is firm, owing to a prepon-
derance of purchases. Caledonian stock is in
prominent request, and has risen 11 per cent., viz.,
to 881 to 891. Several of the other principal lines
have advanced 1 to k. Metropolitan is quoted 121 to
; Great Western, 451 to i ; London and North Wes-
tern, 113# to b ; Midland, 117 k to 1 ; Lancashire
and Yorkshire, 1261 to 1271 ; Caledonian, 871 to
881; South Eastern, 671 to # ; Great Eastern, 321
to k ; Great Northern, 1081 to 1091 ; ditto A,

interesting intelligence from the Argentine
Republic has been telegraphed from Lisbon, where
the usual bi-monthly packet has reached from
Buenos Ayres and will arrive here in a few days.
The allies have been at last successful in Paraguay,
as all persons acquainted with those regions have
long predicted they would be, though the war has
lasted longer and been far more costly than was
expected. In justice to the allies it must not be
forgotten that it was entirely unprovoked on their
part, indeed forced upon them by their territories
having been invaded and laid waste by Lopez, who
now, it is said, sues for peace. Another satisfactory
piece of news is that the packet brings a remittance
of the whole of the money required to fulfil the
guarantee accorded by the Buenos Ayres govern-
, meld to the Great Southern Railway Company,
thus affording another proof of the fidelity of
IBuenos Ayres to her national engagements.
Mr. Hawkins, the chief clerk to the Master of

A meeting of the shareholders in the Hudson's

reduction in prises. The charters by the last mail from
Chili amount to 3,104 tons, of which about 2,500 is for
England and the rest for France. English tough, 751. to

The Frontico and Bolivia South American Gold Mining
Company /Limited, have received accounts from their
s➢perintendent, dated Medellin, A➢gust 19, of which the
following is an extract :—" The last month's iernittosee
of gold from Bolivia (that for July) was more than suffi-
cient to pay the month's cost, and this in spite of all the
difficulties and expenses to which we have been subjected
by the state of warlike preparation in which the country
has been. Mr. Grieff operates with great judgment in all
the works he undertakes, and the present very favourable
situation of the Dailies under his charge will improve still
more every mouth. By the end of the year I hope to have
two more new mines in operation, and all the three pre-
sent vying a profit." No gold has been received by the
company by the present mail. but the bankers of the com-
pany at Medellin write, under the same date, that the
remittances of gold can commence in September, when they
hope to send the produce yielded by the mines since the
month of March last. This amount Mr. ]touch states will
be equal to wore than 2,0001., and tithe produce up to the
end of J➢ly. It will be seen that as the present letters
are only dated the 19th August, the next mails ought to
bring advice' to the middle of October.
