PARIS, TIMIDAT Rvinure.
The general subject of conversation in the tubbier,
and ea the benches of the majority, is a very remark-
able report, which has, it Is said, been drawn op by
dowel Previa, and presented to the President of the
Republic, at the import of the latter. Louis Napo-
We, tired, it is said, of the interminable differences
end perpetual coasts which Vies between General
Changarniee and the Minister of War, requested
Newel Preval to submit a revert to him, in which
the respective positions of the Minister of War and of
the Commandant of the Army of Paris should be
clearly defined, according to the laws and regulations
of the army, as well as to military traditions. The
report of General Preval is said to be a complete
treatise on the matter, developed with all the autho-
rity of science and cf long experience. The conclu-
sions are not at all favourable to the exorbitant pre-
tangoes of General Changarnier, and the President is
said to have been struck by the arguments on which
the experienced author of the report has founded his
opinion. It would be premature to alarm that the
communication of this important document will moss
aby modification whatever in the hierarchic relations
of the Minister of War and General Changarnier, but
it would be a pity to withhold from the public a docu-
ment throning light on each a-delicate question.
The jealousy existing between the legislative and
executive still continuo to furnish the papers with
abundant materials for pleadeal ditionssien. The
redaction of the Moniker do Sear has been purged of
those costetbators who had a- hand la the articles'
which called forth the wrath of the Assembly.
Some distarbanors are expected to take pleas on
Thanday at the Hippodrome, where the President
will appear, in consequence of the aanounced inten-
tion to put down theory of " Vie la Republique," and
to arrest those who molest the President by uttering
snob unwelcome exrdsmatious in his presence. The
itnnonstrations of this kind which attended Louis
Napoleon on his return front the Ambigu, have mimed
this resolution to be taken.

M. Thiers will set out to-morrow en his tour through
Belgium, Holland, sad Germany. He will pass Me
rester part of the vacation on the Rhine.
It is reported to be highly probable that a partial
er total obtuage will take place to the cabinet dialog
the prorogation. The President is said to be em-
ployed about composing a message, with the assist-
ance of MM. Rouher and Fould, after the delivery of
which Baroche, d'Hantponl, and Bimini, are expected
to retire.

In the sitting of yesterday, M. Flavigny drew the
attention of the Assembly to the grave insult which
had been offered to the French flat in the ports of a
friendly power :
He alluded to the seising of fifteen French vowels in the
month of December lest, in the port of Sea Francisco, when
they were still detained in eaotivity. It was knows to every
one that the discoveries in California had suddenly operated
a favourable change ie the French mercantile navy, hitherto
in a depressed and languid state. Front& vestals
oa their way to that distant deigioation naturally
touched at the ports of Chill and Peru. Tears
they unloaded merchandise and est down pusengers, receive
ing on board fresh goods for Calitornia. But what was the
reception they met with at San Francine, where the first
authorities of the central government of the United States
bed just established themselves? Why, they were mixed
and put under sequestration, and there they lay, abset.ined
by their crews, water-logged, and in a state of such dilapida-
tion, as to have lost three-forths of their value. The sumo- I
rinse did not stop there, but caused to be taken out, not only
the goofs wh.ct had been shipped in the porta of South
America, but even those which, came directly from Franc*,
and sad partly by auction for a wog, and among those goods
were the bundles of poor enerente, who were thus stripped
of everything they had in the world, sad given up to the
most absolute destitution. The merchandise had not been
warehoused, but heaped. in docks where it was spoiled by
exposure to the weather. The French captains and consular
meats had protested, but their complaints were
not listened to. The shipowners and merchants had
applied to the envoy of the United States at Paris, who had
certainly left nothing undone so far as promises west. The
French Minister of Foreign Affairs bad also instructed the
representative of the republic at Washington to apply for
redress. Bat had this redress been granted by the United
States, whose government was noted for the rigour with
wh'cb it pushed &rasa& probably for less founded against
ether states? Nothing of the kind. The principle of indent-
nit, had net been even acknowledged. He trusted that the
Minister of Foreign Affairs would afford the house some satis-
factory explanation on this subject
General Labitte said that the complaints of the
French government had been attended to, and the
justice of them bad been admitted. Unfortunately,
the communications between Washington and San
Francisco were not rapid, and he would fain attribute
to this cause the incomplete execution of the due mea-
sures of reparation. But he would c3ntinue to act
with the same zeal which he had shown from the be-

ginning.
The budget of expenses was passed yesterday by
398 votes against 155.
The Legislative Assembly adopted to-day, in the
beginning ot its sitting, the bill allowing additional
credits to cover the expenses incurred before the re-
ductions established by the budget voted on May 5,
1850. The house then proceeded to discuss the bill
on the police of theatres, which renders the sanction
of the government necessary for the representation of
' every dramatic cimposition. M. Monnet spoke in
favour of the bill, the necessity of which was demon-
stated by the nature of the pigs represented nightly
on the Boulevards, part of which were filled with the
materials of political excitement, while others were
highly immoral. Who would believe that the ro-
masers of the younger Crebillon were reproduced in
a dramatic form upon the stage in Paris, in 1850.
The system of the committee was not the adoption of
the censorship; but such were the daily scandals of
the stage that the censorship was sincerely desired
by many just thtnicers. At classic Rome, the
stage was submitted to a rigorous surveil-
lance, and he thought the example might be
followed with advantage at the present day by Paris.
M. de St. Beauve said that it was not at the hands ot
the Minister of the Interior and the Prefect of Police
that they could look for the sincerity and probity of
the old Roman censors. The stage was considered
by governments aa a political engine, and their atten-
tion was rater directed to the repression of works,
which they deemed dsngerons in a political than in a
moral point of view. The difficulty of finding a
board of censorship qualified as far as knowledge,
taste, and independence were concerned, was the
grand objection against submitting the theatre to this
restraint. The house then divided. The law was
adopted by 352 votes against 194.
The Assembly next adopted, without debate, the
bell authorising the distribution of the cslonial indem-
nity to those entitled, by degrees, as their claims
were recognised or their wants mewing. The debate
then opened upon the bill relative to the railways
from Tours to Nantes, and from Orleans to
Bordeaux. First the urgency was adopted. M.
Sauteyra spoke against the bill. The debate was
adjourned until L-morrow. The titling broke up
without r furti business.
The repo •of M. de la Rochette, on the motion of
Emile de Girardin for providing newspapers with an;
authentic report of parliamentary and Judicial pro-
oeedirgs was distributed to-day. It recommends the
appointment of a committee on the subject. The
committee of initiative recommends, as the fittest
means fur effecting the object in view, to establish the
printing-house of the Momiteur close to the Palace of
the Assembly, and to distribute the proofs of the
• Moniteur's report of the proceedings in the Chamber
to all newspapers which apply, by degrees as they
are struck off, so that the complete debate say be
, accessible to all journals by 9 o'clock at the latest.
M. Crock-Spinelli yesterday appeared before the
j••ge-de-psix of the second arrondissement, slid
• demanded the enure of the name of M. Thieve from
the electoral lists, on the ground that the certificate
• given by Madame Doane, mother-in-law of M. Thiele,
• was invalidated, inasmuch as that lady had herself
only been in possession of her rights as a house-
- holder for about a year, that is, since the death of her
husband. The juge-de-paix overruled the objection,
and ordered the name to be maintained.

A funeral man was celebrated yesterday at the
church of SL Paul and St. Louis, iu commemoration
of the 20th anniversary of the days of July.
About 300 of the citizens, decorated for the put they
took in the revolution of July, were present. After
the service, several went and laid crowns at the foot
of the ode= of the iteeWe.
