OUR PARIS LETTER.

(PIOK 01711 OWN 00211311PONDINT.)

PARIS, MONDAY Evierpra.

The only war rumour of any interest to-day is
one given by the Prase, which says that at the
recent interview at Schwalbach between the Czar
and the Ring of Prussia, the Emperor Alex-
ander undertook to give the signal for a rupture
with France by proposing a general disarmament,
a reconstitution of the Ottoman empire, and a con-
siderable aggrandisement of Greece.
I hear it said this evening that at the last minis-
terial council the question of an immediate general
election was brought upon the tapia, and that the
majority of the ministers were in favour of it, but
M. Pinard said if it were resolved upon he should
be obliged to resign, because when he issued writs
for the isolated elections in the Gard and the Jura
he had told the Prefects there would be no general
election till next year.
The Saturday's number of the Laeterue, pub-
lished; in Brussels, is not admitted into France.
M. Rochefort continues to be unable to find a
printer in Paris. But it is said he will take ad-
vantage of a clause in the new press law, hire a
printing press on his own account, and defy the
government in the double character of author and
printer. Should he carry out this resolution, it is
probable that the new number will be seized be-
fore many copies can be sold.
The famous Judge Delesvaux has been removed
in rotation to the presidency of another court,
where he will enjoy an obscurity which must, I
should think, be grateful to him,

the use of the expression on the followiir,;
"I. Because it expresses the oneness of the ,imr.
