STUTTGART, Garr. 27.

The Empress of Mugs and the Queen of Greece
arrived here last night. Prince Leopold of Bavaria
is expected to-day.
The Emperors Alexander and Napoleon leave
Stuttgart to-morrow evening for Darmstadt, and
very probably the latter will accompany the former
to Weimar, and there meet the Emperor of Muftis'
and the King of Saxony.

PARIS, SLIIDAT Immure.
The Empress left Biarritz at two o'clock this day,
Sunday (a day sooner 'than had been announced),
and she is expected in Paris at five o'clock to-

morrow morning.
The weekly commercial reriew of the Presto no-
tices the continuance of activity in the Paris manu-
f►ctories. The fine weather somewhat checks the
_ ...

sale of winter goods. The fain of the re-establish-
ment of the sliding wallahs this year have been dis-
sipated by the promulgation in the Moniteur of a
decree prolonging the free trade provisional mea-
sures till Sept. 30, 1868. Corn is most abundant in
all the markets, and prices are lower.
The Correctional Tribunal of Paris has decreed the
seizure and entire suppression of the " MystBres du

People," by Eugene Sue, a serial commenced so long
ago sa 1849, and long since circulating throughout
Europe by hundreds of thousands of. copies. Baron
de la Maitre, the assignee of the copyright, is men-
.

Wooed to &year's imprisonment and a line of 6,000 fr.
--a sentence which, considering that the work bad
circulated with impunity for many years during the
author's lifetime, is in the highest degree iniquitous.
The publisher is sentenced to two months' imprison-
. . . . .

ment and a fine of 2,000 fr., and the printer to oae
month's imprisonment and a fine of I,oooli. I sub-

join a translation of this remarkable judgment,
which reads like a page from the jurisprudenoe of

the middle ages: -
Considering that the work he detain volumes, entitled
" Lea Mystkes du People, ou Illstoire crone Familia de pro-
letairea d travers la Agee," by Eag:•ne Sue, is the property
of the defeedatt Baron La Cleave, by virtue of a deed of
January 1, 1854 ; and he has published it jointly with the
publisher, Chabot-Fontenay; and the defendant, Widow
Dondney Dome, printed it. Considering that although
this work was begun in 1849, it has been continued up to
1837, and consequently the publisher sad printer rennet
pined preseriptioe, the work having been printed and pub-
lished within the last three years, and there have been new
editlems of the fleet sight volumes, as appears by the tepee
d de Cemoimary of Polies, M. Nesse, dated May 7, 1837. ,
Considarteg that the author of the " Mysteree du Peep*"
Haiku, Bus, who died since the commencement of this pro-
mention, undertook the work in 1819, and continued it up to
1837, solely out of hatred to the institutions and government
of his country, and with an evident immoral purpose ; intact,
we find in every volume, in every page, the negation of all
the principles upon which religion, morality, and society de-
pend. Considering that in this work the monthly of religion
Is loathed and travestied, good manners outraged by

mink indeetent, end otimins dmeriptiona, and puUie morality
essellsesd and lowered by a systematic rehabilitation of ac-
tions as odious as criminal—which have been uniformly stig-
matised as criminal in all ages and by all nations; that
Engine Bus represents France as having always been divided
Into two races, the one the Franks, coequering and opprem
and the other, the Gauls, conquered and oppressed ; that
hadeseribes this division of having prevailed for are
as existing in the present day, and as being the origin of tt
oppreeeka of that dame of society which be denominates
proletaires, the lemiesere of the Cleula,by another clam which
he calls the clam of crowned, cometelted, and mitred tyrants,
the summers of the Franke; that he excites the fernier to
count themselves and to make away of extermination upon the
latter; that at the head of every chapter of the " itlystret du
People" he has placed a motto which is an appeal to Muir-
nation ; that he openly apologiees for, and MAW,o the mar
Caere of September, pillage, Iseandiarlsm, violation,' and
regicide, representing these criminal acts as 'tug and legiti-
mate reprisals which it is the right of the poor to exercise
against sovereigns, nobles, the clergy, and all who are rich
and powerful—not only on account of their own sullisriage
bat also by way of revenge for the oppressions endured by
their encoders, and which their descendants may expect to
endure likewee; that he advocates the red flag and repre-
sents property so en usurpation ; that he excites
to hatred and contempt of the government established
by the constitution, and even in the two volumes printed in
1857 proclaims the universal republic founded upon the
overthrow of the French government, in the first place, and
of all other governments eubsequeutly ; that he cowls secret
societies, saying that the members of those weletias are
animated by the most noble aentiments, that they seek only
is destroy the oppressors of the people, and that insurgents
are honest men, who fight to save themselves from starvation
and their daughters from prostitution; that tho monarchy
oppresses the country by violence, rubbery, and murder;
that the proklasets possess all the virtues, and that vies and
corruption are rmvereel among other demos. Couaider-
ing that It would be dangerous to society to
allow " Lea Mys“mo du Feu*" to do idols any
longer ; that no doubt can be entertained of the danger sites
the work has been found to be in the possession of most of
the members of grope secret societies which hare been pre,
mated of late year", the court decrees, ace, Sm.
l'oor Baron do In Chnatre must pay in person,
but he will have the consolation of knowing that
the value of his property is enormously increased
by this advertisement. Millions who might never
have read the " Mystires du People" will now
take the first opportunity of judging for themselves
how far the judgment of the learned members of
the Correctional Tribunal of Paris contains a true
description of it. The death of Eugene Sue has
given a new impetus to the sale of his works. Ili,
philosophy may have been, and I, for one, think it
was very unsound, but he was one of the greatest
writers of the century, and the judgment of a Paris
police tribunal will not weigh a feather in the scale
against hie reputation.
The following paragraph is prominently inserted
in yesterday's Moniker:
" The government of the Emperor has felt it to be
its duty to postpone to the 30th of September, 1838,
the measures relating to alimentary commodities.
Those measures are of a twofold nature ; they facili-
tate the importation of bread-stuffs and suspend
their exportation. The facilities given to importa-
tion have not been adopted as a precaution against
any dearness in the price of food, of which the great
abundance of our harvest relieves us of fear, but to
ensure the complete liquidation of enterprises en-
tered into in the way of trade tinder the present re-
gulations, enterprises for the rest that will 'tend to
re-create those reserves that were exhausted by the
scarcity of the last three years. In fixing a term for
the suspension of exportation by, these orders the
government does not involve itself in an engagement
as is the case with respect to importation. Circum-
stances and the prices in the market will determine
their retention or suppresaion."

PARIS, SATURDAY EVENING.
We have a great deal of telegraphic news from
Stuttgardt.
Tho Moniteur publishes the following :
STUTTGANDT, Serr. 25, 9.25.
The Emperor left fOrsebnurg at eight o'clock thia morning
for Stuttgardt. At Baden-Baden him Majesty was received
by the Grand Dubs and the Prince at Prtuisia. The letter
delirmisi to the Emperor a letter from the King of ETIVANI,
expressing his regret that circumstance* prevented him from
coming in person to meet his imp rial majesty, The Em-
peror, after paying a shit to his aunt. the Grand Duchess
Stephanie, breakfasted with the Orlind Duke in Ma palace.
The Grand Duchess of Baden, the Orand Duchess Stephanie,
the Grand Duchess Sophie, the Princom Merle, and the
Prince of Prussia, were at the breakfast. The Emperor left
Baden-Baden at half.past one. lie stopped at Itastadt to
eci=enent the Grand Duke. William and -Maximilian. At
he the Emperor took leave of hie illustrious friends.
HI. Majesty arrived at Stuttgardt at half-poet four.
Another telegraphic despatch, dated Stuttgardt,
25th, says :

• This to • stem litel on the memory of Engine Sae.
Reeder. of hie bolter-known wcrk, the • Itlyet res de
Pato," sill not buthro this of the man who drew the portrait
et now de Mate.

The King of Wintentorg, the Prince RoW, and the
seder nembees eine royal family were et the railway station,
waft ter his Mairoty. The Nentoror and the King pre.
ealled in the sane carriage to the palam in the midst of ea
.scrowd, the military bends playusg the air of Clam
lienense.
Another despatch, dated Stuttgardt, 25th, evening,
2173sefore the state dinner, which took place to-day at court,
the Emperor of Nona paid a visit to the Emperor Napoleon
in his private apartment. It is thought proWle that the
Rowena of Russia will arrive here to-morrow.
Several despatches confirm the statement that the
Empress of Russia is to be at Stettgardt during the
interview of the Emperors, and it remains to be seen
how the official chroniclers, whose business it is to
make everything pleasant," will explain the re-
ports of a few days mots that the Empress Euginie
was not to go to Stuttgerdt for the alleged reason
that the Empress of Runts was not well enough to

. _
-a there.
A telegraphic despatch, dated from Stuttgardt so
late as four o'clock Ws afternoon, states that not only
the Empress of Russia, but the Queen of Greece, are
expected there at eight o'clock this evening.
A despatch, dated this day, Sept. 26, states that
the two Emperors bad their first interviewyesterday
evening, the Emperor Alexander paying i visit to
the Emperor Napoleon, and that this morning at ten
o'clock the two Emperors made an excursion to-
gether to Weil and Hohenheim.
Letters from Stuttgardt of yesterday, the 26th.
announcing the arrival of the Czar, have been
received in Paris. The public were not aware that
he would leave the railway at the Feuerback Sta-
tion, about a league from Stattgardt, and conse-
quently there were notmore than 200 or 300 people to
sec him on his arrival there. The King of Wurtem-
berg, who is 76 years of age,but looks much younger,
came to the station in a private carriage at about
3 o'clock. A state carriage for the Czar had pre-
ceded him by a few minutes. The King wore the
uniform of the Wurtemberg Guards, with the Grand
Cordon of the Russian Order of St. Andrew. At
half-past three two locomotives, sent on beforehand,
announced that the imperial train was approaching.
The train was composed of five
the state carriage being in the centre.
Prince and Princess Royal of Wurtemberg
were with the Czar, having gone as far as
Ludwigsbourg to meet their august relative.
Prince Alexander of Hesse Darmstadt, the brother
of the Princess Marie, also accompanied his Majesty.
The sovereigns, on meeting, embraced each other
with fervour. They almost immediately afterwards
entered together the state carriage which was to
convey them to the palace at Stuttgardt. The Em-
peror of Russia wore the uniform of one of his Cau-
casian regiments, a uniform partaking by its blue
tunic of the European character, and by its curved
and richly carved sword and Tartar bonnet, of the
Oriental. The Czar appeared in the red and black
cordon of the Royal Order of Wurtemberg. The
Prince Royal of Wurtemberg and the Prince Alex-
ander of Heim wore the uniforms of the Russian
regiments of which they are colonels, and also the
Order of St. Andrew. In the suite of the Emperor
were Prince Gortehakoff, the Minister for Foreign
Affairs, and Prince Tolstoi, Under-Secretary of State
inthesamedepartment. The K ing ofWurtenilsergem-
ducted the Emperor to the Prince Royal's villa,near
Coustatt, which is assigned to the Czar as a residence
during his stay at Stuttgardt. The Queen of Wur-
temberg, the Queen of the Low Countries, the Grand
Duchess Helena, niece of the King of Wurtemberg,
and widow of the Grand Duke Michael, were, with
the officers and ladies of the household, in waiting
at the villa to receive his Majesty. The villa, which
commands a view of the valley of the Neckar, is a
modern building, surrounded by charming gardens,
one in the French and the other in the Italian style.
There was no official reception on the day of the
Csar's arrival. Their Majesties dined together quite
en familk. In the evening they went to the
Palace Theatre, where a French Company played
Ca qwe Femme Vest and Le Piano 4 Berthe. 'he
latter piece made the Emperor of Russia laugh
amazingly. The Court remained till the close of
the performances.
It is said that the two Emperors, at their first
interview yesterday, remained alone half an hour.
Amongst the personages arrived at Stuttgardt are
Count Kusseleff, Russian Ambassador at Pails • M.
Dujardin, Belgian Minister at Munich 4. de
Itemhard, Wurtemberg Minister at the Germanic
Diet; M. de Kneeebeek, Hanoverian Minister; and
M. de Bose, resident Minister of Saxony at Munich.
Count Waleweki is provided with apartments in the
King's palace.
The arrival of the Grand Duke of Baden at Stras-
burg, where be had intended to meet the Emperor
Napoleon at the railway station, was delayetliq a
curious circumstance. The Grand Duke was on his
way, when at the Appenweyer station he received a
telegraphic despatch informing him that the Emperor
of Russia would be at Carisruhe sooner than was ex-
pected. Ile was compelled to return at once to his
capital to receive the Czar, and consequently did
not get to Strasburg till the afternoon.
On the news that the Czar of Ramie is to meet
the Emperor of Austria at Weimar, after the inter-
view of Stuttgardt, the Freese says:
People disuse this event with the more interest because
they were altogether unprepared for it. The surprise is
general and natural. It is notorious, that Russia and Austria
were estranged by differences of no ordinary kind, and the
grounds of the dissatiefaction of Rands with Austria are also
well known. The resentment felt by the court of St. Peters-
borg was PO intense, that the widow and children of the late
Emperor Nichols carefully sealed sung foot on Austrian
tern tary during their recent tours in GOPPOSOy and Italy.
To the efforts of the Pritasian government is due, according to
report, the &Moho ion of this extremely delicate situation. and
the locoing of Weimar is sluts! at Berlin as a triumph of
the poliey of Prussia—which power, it mast be owned, has
not bed many diplomatic suoceeses of late years.
The Sport says:
The litug of Wtortemberg will offer to his august guests
some of the releloutod wine from the Bremen cellar, known
es the Itneenson, which is only offered to crowned bead/ion
rem occasion.. This wine, deposited in the cellars of the
town-horse of Bremen, is two centuries and a half old. It
was made in the your 1624, end was placed in twelve casks
bearing the sons of the twelve spostSs. It is dress bottle
ri
by bottle, and never sore than one at a lime. The Oaks-
lotion Kntung the vulgar is that a bottle of Reeenwein costa
upwards 01 eight millions of franca; this fearful sum is
m.,de op by the original cost of the wine, with interest and
compound interest of the rams since 1624, lel3P, toss, hex,
We may however add, at the risk of destroying
the romance of these figures, that the said casks of
Rosenwein have been repeatedly filled and exhausted
during the last half-century, and that the fame of
the Bremen cellar is mainly due to its having
inspired lista, the German novelist, with his most
popular work, a very triumph of humorous writings
—the Bremen Rathskeller."
His Majesty, just before his departure from Lune-
ville, announced to General de Grammont that he
had promoted him to the dignity of grand officer of
the Legion of Honour, as a reward for his long ser-
vices, especially under the first empire. In the
evening, all die officers of the garrison went to com-
pliment the general on the honour conferred on him.
The Pays, which affects to have nearly every day
a paragraph of startling Indian news, comes out thus
evening with the following:
The last deopateliee from India reveal an cleat which may
lead lo an important Osage in the highest branch of the
administration of the country. A PA.PIOIIs difference has
arisen at Calcutta between Sir Colin Camphor:land Lord Can-
ning relating to the general pulley to be pursued in the pre.
mint crisis. Lord Elgin tides with General Campbell, who
is, moreover, altogether supported by public opinion. Thi
internal crisis 11P• canted on ifiIIOCUSO sensation among the
European population of Cricei ta.
Although it is quite within the bounds of possi-
bility that the Pays may have learned through the
Freuch embassy in London news brought by the lest
India mail, which has been kept back by the English
government, and although nothing is more probable
than &difference of opinion between the energetic
Sir Colin Campbell and the—not very energetic
Lord Canning, I cannot but think that the French
government organ must be mistaken in attributing
to Lord Elgin the assertion Er mere mots, of that
claim to the Governor-Generalship of India which
public opinion in England is quite disposed to con-
cede to him. It is impossible not to admire the
courageous and well-timed assumption of responsi-
bility which led him to go to Calcutta to offer to
exchange the English troops sent on the compara-
tively unimportant Chinese expedition against
&rye ; but cannot believe that he can have so far
commissioned himself without authority as to inter-
fere between the Governor-General and the Com- '
mander-in-Chief of India.
The Northern Railway robberies trial was con-
cluded at a late hour last night. Carpentier, Grellet,
and Guerin were found guilty of theft and embezzle-

ment. Extenuating circumstances were admitted in
favour of Carpentier and Guerin, inconsequence pro-
bably of their having surrendered themselves to the
French police-officers in America, while Grellet
was arrested by the United States government,
and given up after the long judicial discussion,
by virtue of the treaty of extradition.
The sentences pronounced on the criminal charge
were—against Grellet eight years', imprisonment,
and against Carpentier and Guerin Ave years' im-
prisonment. It is generally said at the Palais de
Justice that the sentence on the three convicted pri-
mers would have been more severe had it not been
the opinion of the court that the Northern Railway
Company had taken too little care of their property.
The Bourse has been more decidedly buoyant
than on any day during the week. There were but
few oscillations in the Rente, the upward movement
continuing with scarcely a check throughout the day.
The Threes rose 30c. for cash and 60c. for account,
closing at 88 and 88.26. Mobilier rose 25. It is
stated that out of 10 millions worth of Credit Mehl-
liar theres dismounted" within the last week not
more than 3 or 4 millions have yet been delivered.
The shares are extremely scarce in the market. The
railwayarcesconaiderably—Orleiths,l2.6o;Northeuy
20; Eastern, 16; Lyons, 12.60; Southern, 10f
Western, 6; and Ardennes, 10. It was announced
that the Bank of France has decided to accept shares
of the Ardennes Railway Company as a deposit for
advances. Advice. from the German Bourse are
more satisfactory. The Vienna funds are quoted
higher, in consequence, it is reported, of M. de
Bruck having postponed the resumption of cash
payments by the Bank for another year.
The lndependance, which originally circulated the
news that Count Walewski had sent a note to the
northern courts to inform them that the French
government sided with Denmark in the question of
the Duchies, now seek. to discredit the assertion.
The 9uestion (it says) is not ripe for an immediate
. solution, and why should French diplomacy,
although it feels a sympathy with Denmark, go oat
of its way to pronounce an opinion prematurely ?"
The Emperor has ordered a special gallery to be
set apart in the Palace of Versailles for tho ex-
hibiuon of pictures representing scenes in the
, Eastern war.

SPAIN.

The Madrid papers of the 23rd inst. state that
several republican proclamations had been seized
there, together with a copy of instructions for the
new members who shall join the republican secret
societies. Some arrests had been made.

SWITZERLAND.

BERNE, Sm. 25.
The Grand Council of the Canton of Vaud has
resolved to demand the convocation of the Federal
Assembly, and to submit to it the question of com-
petence.
