FRANCE.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT

PARIS, FRIDAY EVENING

I have reason to believe that, up to this moment,
no news has reached the French government of
the settlement of the difficulty raised by the
Russians with respect to the Isle of Serpents, in
the Black Sea. The assertion of the Berlin tele-
graph yesterday . that the affair was settled, must,
therefore, be considered erroneous; and so also,
necessarily, must a statement of the Dresden
Journal, transmitted by telegraph this morning,
that -the Russians have already given up the island.
If private telegraphic despatches received to-day
from Constantinople are to be believed, Admiral
Houston Stewart, with some French and English
vessels, had on the Ist inst returned to the Black
Sea, with orders to remain there until Russia
should give up Kars and the Isle of Serpents.
A telegraphic despatch announces the arrival of
Count de Morny at St. Petersburg.
The Turkish Government, I am told, has con-
templated the intention of giving a medal to all the
French, English,and Sardinian soldiers who served
in the Crimea, but the French Government, for its
part, is unwilling to accept it, thinking the English
medal amply sufficient. It has accordingly opened
a correspondence with the Turkish Government on
the subject, and has proposed, by way of arrange-
ment, that instead of being given to all who served
in the Crimea, it shall only be awarded to those
who were wounded.

Marshal Pelissier arrived in Paris last evening
from Plombieres. He was received at the railway
station by the Minister of War, and a number of
generals in full uniform, and was conveyed to the
hotel of the Minister, escorted by a detachment of
cavalry. The people saluted him as he passed
along the streets, but the excitement his presence
created was more curiosity than enthusiasm.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, whose return to
Paris I mentioned the day before yesterday, has
resumed the administration of his department,
which was held ad interim by M. Baroche, Presi-
dent of the Council of State.

The Emperor is to arrive in Paris tomorrow
evening, about eight o'clock.

The accounts from Spain announce the accep-
tance of the resignations of M. Olozagar and
Gonzalez as ambassadors at Paris and London,
and say that they will probably be succeeded by
General Serrano and M. Pacheco. Espartero had
taken leave of the Queen and King, and had been
kindly received by them. The papers publish
the proclamation of which General Falcon in the
name of the Junta of Saragossa announced the
surrender of the city. The reason of the surren-
der was, he says, that the rest of the nation did
not second the junta, and that O'Donnell gave
assurances that he would respect liberty.

THE STEAMER ITALIAN.—LISBON, JULY 31—After the
fire on board the above steamer had been subdued, a survey
was made of the vessel, attended by Lloyd's agent, and it
appEared that no part of the vessel has sustained any injury,
except a small portion of the deck, which has been rather
severely scorched. All the cargo in the fore-hold is
saturated with water, and several packages, which lay
together, are much burnt. The chief part of the injured
cargo is destined for Gibraltar. It has been determined to
send on the cargo in its present condition.

NEW PRINCESS ROYAL. —The Glasgow and Liverpool
Royal Steam-packet Company have concluded a contract
with Messrs. Tod and Macgregor for a new steamer, to
take the place of their late steamer, the Princess Royal, lost
about a couple of months ago. She is to be similar to the
Princess, but considerably larger and more powerful, with,
of course, extended cabin accommodation in proportion to
her greater size. She will bear the same name as her pre-
decessor, namely, that of the Princess Royal.—Glasgow
Advertiser.

CORONER'S INQUESTS.—On Saturday the Borough Cor-
oner held the following inquests : —On the body of Daniel
Garrett, a shipwright, who died in consequence of having
his skull fractured. It appeared that he, with some other
men, were at work on board a ship called the Devon, in the
Queen's Dock, when the poor fellow went aahore to get a
drink of water. On reaching the top step of the dock he
slipped and fell backward, and falling into the graving
dock the base of his skull was fractured, and he died from
the injuries. Verdict accidental death.—On the body of
a child named William Peterson, aged ten weeks. This
case was remarkably curious for the following reasons :
From a statement made by the grandmother of the child,
who it seems is in very miserable circumstances, and resides
in a cellar, at 23, Blackstone Street, it appeared that her
daughter, the mother of the child, is quite an idiot, and
that,a ruffianly sailor, who some time since lodged in the
house, took advantage of the poor girl's infirmity, but she
(the mother of the girl) did not know anything of the
affair, until a short time before the child was born. She
stated, also, that she has a son twenty years of age, and a
daughter eleven, both of whom are deaf and dumb, and
another daughter who is deaf only. Her husband is at sea
at present. The child, it would seem, died of natural
causes, and as the poor woman had not the means of paying
for its interment, she took the body to Saint Martin's-in-
the-Fields, and entered it as a still-born child, the fee in
such case being one shilling and sixpence, whereas other-
wise, the te would have been eight shillings and sixpence,
a sum which she could not by any means procure. The
coroner's beadle (Mr. Blake) was apprised of the matter,
and found that the child was ten week's old. However, as
death was the result of natural causes, the jury found
accordingly. [The case of the grandmother of the child,
is one perhaps, that will attract the attention of the
benevolent, and from what transpired in the Coroner's
Colin, her case seems one well worthy the attention of
charitably disposed persons.]
