OUR PARIS LETTER.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONI,I N 7.1
PARIS, 111nNii+t NI,

M. Cranier do Cassagnac•s journal, !•!••
puts the followingconstruaion on Ow tw,• '.es
at Orleans :

Never was the spirit of France more exac!iy ci c•
tensed. Yea ! France has always been, and eve: w.:'
above all things, Christian, agriculturist, awl warlike.

The two first propositions it make« out by
meals not worth citing. It estaMishea the
in these words :

Warlike, who can doutt it, after t'
:t
which she him made during the last two )e.,14 !“ •Lt
the explosion of the sentiments inspired by the oo
fiicted on her patriotism The Empur, r. who ',now, •• .4
and understands France better than ~:1
find in this order of ideas a policy worthy of
his dynasty.
The A re,Lie 21-'16°,101 says :

It will be remembered that Joseph .'e :•1...5:1
dilection for war. and that his doctrines have 1,•••
favour with the French clergy since
pinion') did not confine himielf w evokin •
of Joan of Arc, hut pressed the
take Charlemagne for his model as a p••rsever:e: , • a
of the Papal royalty. We conclude flow
that the alliance between the government and : al
party is not yet concluded, but is only in tb•
protocols. Is this the reason why the Lisho:). ,•'
reminded the Emperor that Paris nd t. • 3
occupied by foreign armies':

1.. ..

The publication by the d!-.„it. o• th, •
the l'mi-shtittioio,/ in defence of tho 1, • •
causes the T.ujo to say that-

The government i-, evidently tinc.,,y 1.11. •
able impression produced on the public
meats and the striking contrast which they :or
the pacific words uttered ()deans.

The Palr;e says the only reason why
Saint Paul has not been superseded in t!ie deo:-
tion of the press by M. de Salh:s, is
when M. Pittard found the rune,or ••i the
encouraged the idea that there wc.•n• •• t

currents " of opinion in the ministry he .p
the combination. This is very silly
the public. Everybody at all aware of wh...
going on at court knows that 31. de Sain:'
M. Rouher's man, and M. de Salles was to h.-, • • f
M. Pinard's Mall. At the ministerial co .13
Saturday there was a great row beta-r
Rouher and M. Pinard. M. Rou':.,
he would resign if M. Pinard's dismissal ; 'id
Saint Paul was confirmed. The Eamon
approbation to M. Rouher, and thereupon I
was forced to " cave in." It was a little "ewe.'
in which M. Pinard, encouraged by the Euiprsse,
wanted to teat the strength of 31. Roither. The
Minister of the Interior came off second hest, eld
it is not supposed that he can long hold his posi:;o4.
M. Rouher's candidate to replace him is 31. (.lra"d'
pinier, the Procnreur-General.
The Prase, a protectionist organ, says
Roubaix manufacturer has received a letter in ..1
leading firm of Bradford, stating that it is w•-•-•'l'' "I
time to attempt to denounce the commercial treat`'
because the English government has bee!)
mired" that it will be renewed. This is, no
the truth. .

Madame de Kneeled, nee Ruspoli, and an it.•'
lady, Laving asked leave to es:l Ni
the Princess Clothilde, was told that her h;,;),...

Prince Napoleon's speech in the Senate in fa... "r
of Poland all Russian agents have had orders to

The evening papers say there is no trut:i in the
