EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

PARIS, WKDSZIDAT ETUINS.

Mr. Stevens, of the British Legation in Persia,
has arrived to-day in Paris from Bagdad on his way •
to London, with the English copy of the treaty of '
peace ratified at Teheran on the 4th of April last.
The Bourse has been decidedly bad. The Rents
has fallen 45c. for cash, and 35c. for account, closing
at 68fr. 65c. and 69fr. Credit Mobilier fell 45fr.
The railway market was generally depreciated. Or.
leans fell 12fr. 50c. ; Northern, 13fr. 75c. ; Eastern, •
15fr. ; Lyons, 16fr. 25c. ; Mediterranean, 35fr. g •
Southern, 32fr. 50c.; Western and Grand Central,
bfr. each. The considerable fall is the more remark-
able that money is decidedly easier, and it is knows
that the bullion in the Bank of France has aug- ,
wanted by thirty millions.
The station-master at Bar le Doc has been die.
missed on account of the late fatal accident on the
Strasburg railway, and is under arrest. It is stated
that he was absent when the line became enema. -
bored by an engine running off the rails, that hie
deputy gave an order that no train was to leave the
station, and that he, returning shortly after and
not knowing what had happened, gave a counter
order, which led to the collision.
The Daily News was again seized to-day. It is
probable that all the English journals which may
contain remarks upon the way in which the French
elections are conducted will be seized regularly for
some time to come.
M. de Segue, the son of the director of the Easters
railway, was lately introduced by the Prefect of the
Meuse to all the mayors of that department as the
government candidate. The prefect, who acoompa-
eled this gentleman' on a tour through the depart..
went, told the mayors that they must get him in,
and that if any money was required for the purpose
it would be supplied.
A letter from the Black Sea, of May 17, state
that at Sulina, and several other points on the mouth
of the Danube, a number of workmen (already about'
400) are assembling, and that the works for improv•
ing the navigation of the river were to commence
on June I.
In pursuance of the powers granted to the Envh
ror, by the law of the 17th July, 1856, which, it may
be remembered, provoked some show of opposition
in the Corps Legislatif, his Majesty has just granted
pensions of 6,000 fr. to the widow of General Aupick
ant the Count de Lacepede, son of the Orand Chan-
cellor of the Legion of Honour of that name.
On Sunday last, as the habitues of Wry's, Vefoluly
and the Trois Brims sauntered forth from those
standard haunts of good cheer in that happy frame
of mind which the French proverb describes as the
lot of us hornless qui a Use dine, they might haws
oboe, ved in the garden of the Palais Royal groups
of gentlemen in dress coats and white chokers,
whose troubled countenances contrasted violently
with their own, and whose conversation, so far as whams
purport of it could be collected from people who
were all speaking at once, betrayed recent disar
peintment and bitter vexation. These individual
were avatar (attorneys), who had been invited to
dinner at Velour's, got up by some members of the
profession, in order to agree upon a protest to bs
presented to government against a proposed alters.,
tion in the Code of Commerce. It appears that se
the last moment the police had put a stop to the
dinner and turned out the delegates to discuss the
probable curtailment of their profits under the
canopy of heaven instead of in Vefonr's state-room.
