The Constitutionnel and the Pattie state that the
Emperor a few days ago paid a visit incognito to
Paris, and inspected some of the public works in

progress.
The Emperor paid a visit on Tuesday to the camp
of Attila, at a short distance from the camp of
Chalons, and where several tumuli still remain. His
Majesty has ordered excavations to be made there.
The Pays says that • private letter from the
Persian frontier mentions that Colonel Taylor, the
British commissioner for carrying into execution the
treaty of peace, had left Teheran on the 21st of July
for Herat, accompanied by one of the high officers of
the court of Persia. _ .

Marshal Canrobert left Paria to-day for the camp

at Chilons.
It is positively asserted that the directors of the
Cridit Mobilier Society intend to bring an action
against the Times for an article published by that
journal with reference to the society.
It is said that Winterhalter has been commissioned

to paint the interview at Stuttgard.
The Bund of Berne states that the Federal Coun-
cil has received a reply from the government of the
canton of Vaud touching the affair of the Oran rail-
way. In this reply it is contended that the govern-
ment of Vaud was authorised by Art 8 of the con-
ditions annexed to the contract to forbid the works,
and requests the federal government to withdraw
the annulment of that prohibition. As to the delay
which has been allowed it to examine the affair,
Vaud declares it to be quite insufficient.
M. Foold has returned to Paris, and had the sa-
tisfaction of finding his son much better.
The Moniteur publishes the following letter from
the camp at Chilons
The first grand manoitirme took place on Monday lest,
and are to be continued every other day. The Guard exe-
cuted with remarkable precision and combination the dif-
fenmt military movements commanded by the Emperor.
Nothing could be more beautiful than the eight of thi► im-
mense plain, which is about to become the school of the whole
army. The camp is now entirely completed, and presents an
admirable appearance. AU the services are carried on with
perfect order. The sanitary atainia excellent. The Emperor,
as usual, displays great activity, rides en horsebackeveryday,
is present at all the partial exercises, visits the locelitissof the
neighbourhood, so rich in Hem eel remembrances, and
leaves in all the villages he poems through some gemerom
tokens of hie munificence. A crowd of peewits, that have
come from 10 to 13 leagues of, station themselves for who*.
days before the Imperial quarters; alt desire to see the Em
peror, and leave contentedly after performing this kind of
pilgrimage. The Cardinal Arebblahop of Rheims came on •
visit to his Majesty last Saturday, and remained all the
morning at the Emperm's camp. In • few days his
Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge is to arrive.
The marshals are invited to come and spend a few days
with hie Majesty.
It appears that the strength of the troops now as-
sembled at the camp of Chklons amounts to 21,250
men and 5,860 horses, divided as follows : Infantry
light regiments,l4,ooo men ; cavalry, six regiments,
4,600 ; six batteries of horse and six of foot artil-
lery, 2,000 ; two companies of engineers, 200 $ and
one squadron of the waggon train, 560. If to the
above be added the detachments of gendarmerie,
pompiers, administrative services, &c., the total
Inumber assembled will amount to about 23,000 men
and 6,000 horses.
At the Bourse the market has been very flat for
