PARIS, SUNDAY DINNING.

The government papers say that the negotiations
for the commercial treaty between France and
Prussia are as good as terminated.
A despatch from Berlin states that, contrary to
recent advices, M. de Schleinitz, the Minister of
Foreign Mails, has really resigned, and that in the
course of the week he will be succeeded by Count
de Bernstorff, now Prussian ambassador in England.
It is reported from Vienna that Archduke Charles
Louis, the Emperor's brother, has resigned the
governorship of the TyroL This print* Las long
been in conflict with M. do Selimerling on the sub-
ject of the imperial decree touching liberty of wor-
ship. The Tyrol is of all the Austrian provinces
the one in which principles of toleration have
the least penetrated. According to the old laws of
the country protestants were incapable of holding
red property, and it is only very recently
that the Emperor by an imperial decree emanci-
pated the protestant'. The Diet of Innsbruck
being consulted, pronounced in favour of the old
exclusive laws, and on this occasion the Archduke
Louis, in congratulating the leader of the ultra-
montane party, made use of language which the
government is not prepared to abide by. The re-
sult of the conflict is, therefore, a victory for the
principle of religious liberty.
The Opinion Nutional learns, " with regret,"
that the news forwarded to a London journal of
the Emperor having disapproved of M. Billault's
famous speech, in which ha said that no further
concessions to liberty would be made beyond those
contained in the decree of Nov. 24, is not true.
The Duke do Broglie is going on with his action
against the Prefect of Police. Notwithstanding the
delivery up of the copies of his "unpublished"
book, his counsel are of opinion that he is entitled
to damages for the seizure.

The Progres de Lyons says that Tartuffe was really
interdicted at Lyons, but now that the Minister of
State disclaims the resporuability of the prohibition
no other official will be forward to avow it. The
Seek asks whether Marshal Castallane, or Cardinal
de Bonald, or Mr. Senator Vain°, are the opponents
of MJlii3ll3.

PARIS, SATURDAY Eveynta.
Several Italian journals (say the Patrie and
Pays) speak of a serious difficulty as having oc-
curred between General de Goyon and the Papal
Minister at War. Agreeing in this preliminary,
the two journals, who, as is well known, make up
their "latest news" paragraph from the identical
slip furnished them from a ministerial ante-
chamber, branch out into individuality, but not so
far as to destroy the family likeness : " Facies non
omnibus unit, nee diversa tamun, qualm decet ease
sororum." The Patric says that the difference was
of no importance, and is already made up. The
Pays, somewhat more cautious, avows that it is not
in a position to give the exact details of the affair,
but inclines to think that it is exaggerated, and at
all eveuta is quite sure that there is not "the least
coolness " between the French army at Rome and
the government of the Holy Father. The affair re-
ferred to is of course the refusal of M. de Merode
to give up for trial by a French court-martial the
Papal gendarme who lately wounded a French
soldier in a fray. General de Goyon claims a right to
try the man under a convention made with Cardinal
Antonelli when he was minister at war. M. de
Merode does not deny the convention, but says that
it was an unjust one. There is a rumour from
ROILLe tll4 General de Guyon ham " helped himself* to
the man, by sending a military force to demand him
from the Papal prison, but of this news there is no
confirmation. On the other hand, I find no con-
firmation of the assertion of the Patric, that the
difference is made up.
The Courrier du Dimanehe, which during K
Gaveeco's exile was very fiat, now resumes its old
practice of bringing out a piece of " startling news"
every week. The bill of fare of to-day is the recon-
ciliation of Austria and Russia under the auspices
of Prussia, and the formation of an offensive and
defensive alliance between the three powers,
" having especially iu view I'oliah and Hungarian
eventualithm."

The Temps quotes this news as "not improbable,"
observing merely that the constitutional regime
established at Berlin and Vienna must make any
new holy alliance impotent.
It is rather against the idea of the triple North-
ern alliance that the news should gain ground
that the King of Prussia will positively pay a
visit to the French Emperor at the Chalons camp.
It is said that he way be expected there quite late
in the summer, and not long before his coronation,
which is fixed fur October 18, the anniversary of
the battle of Leipsic.
The Bourse was very dully on account of the
thin attendance and the httle business doing.
Bente full bc. for cash, closing at 67.65, and fur
account left off at yesterday's quotation, 67.85.
In Mobilier and the railways there was scarcely
any change. Some think the new treaty, which is
understood to be completed, between the Lyons
and Geneva Companies, as by no means advan-
tageous to the Lyons, since the fusion will not in
reality be effected for ten years to come, and mean-
while the Lyons Company will have to work the
Geneva line under disadvantageous conditions.
The Credit Fonder, which had risen 175 f. in the
course of the week, experienced a violent reaction,
and fell 65f. It was reported from Turin that M.
Bastoggi is actively negotiating with many Euro-
pe= bankers fur the accomplishment of the Italian
Loan of LOO millions, and that at a minis-
terial council to be held at Turin on Mon-
day some decisive resolution will be come
to on the subject. Some uneasiness was
felt at the telegraphic news front Toulon that
Admiral La Capelle's fleet, with the famous iron-
cased vessel the Gloire, had received sailing orders
for an " unknown destination." But despatches so
worded have often startled the world, when, as I
dare say is the case in this instance, nothing more
was in question than a harmless cruise.
The maritime prefect of L'Orient has just re-
ceived orders to construct two floating batteries on
a model altogether new.
Thu following paragraph appears in the Gazette
de Fro nrc :

There much talk in Paris of the disappearance of*
rather high functionary who a dozen years since was placed
at the head of an important eataldishnient. His furniture
has been sold under an execution, and be leaves, it is said,
debts to the amount of 600,000 f. or 700,000 f.
It is understood that the personage alluded to is
M. de St. George, the director of the imperial
printing-office, who, in December, 1851, ren-
dered en immense service to the budding
empire by printing the coup d'Haf pro-
clamations with such entire secrecy that no sus-
picion of their existence was entertained until they
wereposted at live o'clock in the morning. As to
the alleged "disappearance "of M. de St. George,
I hear it is said that he has not gone huther than
Vichy.

The story of Tartuffe having been interdicted at
Lyons by the Minister of State, and which was
first started by the Salut Public, and has for two or
three days been accepted as true by the Paris jour-
nals, is now contradicted by the Mcaiteur.
