PARIS, FRIDAY, a 30 P Ir.
The Bourse rose to-day despite the news of the in-
tended risings in the whole of the country forming
the 6th military division, and in spite of the anxieties
expressed in the Paris journals respecting the attitude
of England in the Mediterranean. No foreign news
can stir the bulls at the Boars'', and for days nut an
influence has been exercised on the Bourse which is
irresistible. If reasons are asked, no one can give an
answer, but predictions are not few of an approaching
fall.
I have said that intended risings at Lyons are men-
tioned, the semi-official Constitutionner is the autho-
rity upon which the statements rest. That journal
mays:

The opposition frequently reproach us with political op-
timism; therefor, we are sot alarmists. Bet though the
perils to which society is exposed must not be e N .e,gerated,
they should not be otneealed. Order is cerfain:y secured,
but according to reports which have acquired • certain de-
cree of cousistenee4 it is likely to be disturbed at Lyons.
There is now said to exist in that city, and we several
points of the sixth military division, an extraordi-
nary degree of excitement, and the authorities
are induced to believe that • movement may
shortly break out. A high functionary of the department of
the Rhone has, it raid, come to Pane, to inform the govern-
ment of the state of things, and to elernand additional forces.
This formidable sgitation is attr..'nted to the incessatt ex-
citements wt.ich the refugees In Switzerland keep up among
the population on the frontier. The Gernan powers, who
dream of • joint occupation in the Helvetic cantons, take
advantage, it II said, of this eircumarance to claim the co-
operation of Fracas in corw:deration of its own dangers.
However this may be, the governmen which closely watches
the meowing' of the machinctora, le prepared to prevent,
or at least, to arrest the development of them. The day on
which the movement wee to break out is known. I. ie pro-
to celebrate the anniversary of the 2in T.bruary. W. not, for our part. hesitate to givo puYieity to these
reports, as the hest means of waning off the danger which
is announced to us.

There is no doubt that the democrats in the dis-
affected districts have been again getting up au agita-
tion, but since government knows all about it, why
noise abroad the feet which mast necessarily create a
certain anxiety, whatever the Conetitetionnel may
say. There must be a purpose is view, and there
seems to be no difficulty ia, conjecturing that the
statement is pat forward as preliminary to an assent
given to the demand for a SliirN occepoton. I never
supposed that the executive wadi resist the demand
of Austria and Prussia, but no one expected that the
cloven foot would be shown so speedily. Thisques-
tion of Switzerland stilt creates great attention n the
press. There is a tone in the following which is
quite edifying.
the Ordre earn:—"The kind of memorandum ad-
dressed to the French cabinet to ob'ain its adhesion
and its eventual co-operation in the measures which
appear to have beat concerted between Austria and
Prussia against Switzerland, ie, it is said, drawn cp in
the mcst circumspect and even insinuating terms.
The German powers hope that the conservative and
reparative government of France will not eeparate
itself from them on a question which interests the
.security of all Europe."
It appears from the last we.kly returns published
by the Bank of France, that the metallic reserve has
again augmented 7 millions, 5 millions in Paris
and 2 millions in the provinces. The elscount
accommodation has increased 5 millions in
Paris, and declined about half-a-million in
the branch hanky, the amount of the former
being 49,191,h88fr., and of the latter 69,661,618
francs. The protested bills have decreased about
100,000 fr. in Paris, and about 7,000 francs in the
departments, the amount of the former being
1,881,033 fr., and of the latter 1,612,1.56 fr. On the
side of the liabilities, the notes in circulation present
an augmentation of about 10 million', having in-
creased 101 in Paris, and diminished; of a million
in the provinces. 'fhe aezount-current of the treasury
has increased about one million, the present amount
being 75,375,004 fr. Privets accounts-currert in
Paris have fallen off about 11 millions, whilst those
in the provinces have increased about 20,000 fr., the
amount of the former being 75,938,733 fr., and of the
latter 24,931,379 fr. 'l'hc whole amount cf the me-
talic reserve is now 4571 millions to 4731 millions of
notes in circulation.

BERLIN, JAN.
The First Chamber holds to-day two sittings, in
order to settle the fate of the King's message out of
hand. They have adapted in the upper house a mode
of proceeding similar to that of the lower : first there
is a debate on the general question, and in the even-
ing sitting the particular proposition will be discussed.
The ministers seem to hold somewhat cheap the pos-
sible verdict of the First Chamber, for now the
amendment of Arnim has been accepted by the
Second Chamber their organs declare boisterously
that the crisis is over This is as much as to say
that the ministry conceive their pledge to resign
in the event of the King's message being rejected
by the chambers applies simply to the acceptance of
the amendment] of Arnim by the Second Chamber.
But there is an obvious difference, which the ministers
seem to have overlooked, between the acceptance of
Arnim's amendment by the Second Chamber, and the
acceptance of the cardinal points of the King's mes-
sage by both chambers. Ten members of the extreme
right in the Second Chamber say now they never
would have voted for the amendment of Arnim, but
they were forced to do so by the order of division on
the motions. Thus, by the first division, the eighth
proposition of the King's message was thrown out.
The probable majority in favour of the govern-
ment in the First Chamber is computed by the
Congtitutionelk Zeitung at 00 to 60. It seems, how-
ever, by no means certain that there will be any ma-
jority at all in favour of the gover..ment, as the Left
and Right will both unite against it.

The Cologne Gazette, of Thursday, has a telegraphic
despatch from Berlin, of the 30th ult., which states
that the Upper Chamber had, on the previous even-
ing, adopted, by very large majorities, the further
decisions of the Second Chamber, respeming tho royal
I message of the 7th ultimo. 11. von Arnim expressed
a doubt that the king would not take the oath to the
constitution. Montville' reminded the hoe, deputy
of the promise which the minisiry had given t* the
central committee, in case the dt:isioLs of the Steoad
were adopted by the Upper Chamber.
