On the abip'roming into harbour the flogs of the two kings
were saluted by the garrison. The comniander-in-chief, AA-
mind Sir G. Seymour went on board the Ceram and paid
his respects to tho °mils/ley, and in the meantime Ibn dock-
yard, under the active •uperintendence of Rear-Admiral
Martin, provided for a convenient landing by erecting stages,
and laying down red baize on the jetty. A guard of honour

The dutinguudd visitors were received on disembarking
by the Lieutenant-Governor, Oeneral the Hon. Mr James
Yorke Burka, Admiral Martin, the flag and stet officers of
the port and garrison, and a large number of other ollicials.
The embunadora and suite were welcomed with the greatest
courtesy, which they cordially acknowledged. There was •
large number of visitors at the landing-place, and it is dint-
tuft to say whether the Stump, or the British !wind upon
each other with the most curiosity and interest. The dreseee
of the Siamese are, quaint, but very gorgeous, abounding in
gold embroidery and Jewel..
The ambusadora prig ceded in the first place to the re-
sidence of Sir George Seymour, who had prepared • lun-
cheon, at white 36 persons sat down. After that they were
conducted round the dockyard by Admiral Martin, inspecting
the steam factory and other establishments, and going an
board the Victoria and other of our largest ships on the stocks.
After this inspection they proceeded to the George Hotel,
where apartments have been provided for them during their
stay here, which will be only a day or two. The presents
which they have brought for the Queen appear to be nu-
MMUS. and are reported to be of great rattle; at all events,
they are of a most ponderous weight. The baggage of the
embassy, too, is exceedingly VOillMil2ollll. and two or three
trains of waggons have Lad to be employed in carting it
away.
The &whams... Lore have given to Commander Clavering
and his crew presents of considerable value.
Thu evening they will amuse themselvee by visiting the
Portsmouth Theatre Royal and witnessing the spectacle of
774•• Jewett, which. is its well put upon the stout by Mr.
Maley, the leave, es It could I. et any theatre of the like
dime:mime. The house will no doubt le crowded by anxious
sightseekere, audit is questionable whether the objects before
the curtain will not eclipse in attraction the effotts of those
behind it. . . . . .

7'o-morrow the embassy will room to London by special
train. Mr. Powell, an 001dt., from the Foreign-odes, hes
been at Portsmouth for moms days past awaiting the arrival
of the Csrsdoc, and has the -barge of the mission. No fo-
reignen have ever landed at Portsmouth, who have created
the interest and cariosity of the Siamese, and their hotel is
attended by large saarmiblages of prom who look at them
as they sit smoking at the open windows with eyes end im-
pudence such as only the lower members of John Bull's
family indulge in.
The chid ambemador acknowledge. to the luxury of 58
wive*, and it is related of him that on going round the dock-
-7 and to-day his eye lighted on • young laity whom ho would
have liked to make the 59th at the purchase money of 3,0001.
This was related by a lady to whom the eastern Mormon
eonfereed the wellness, with whose charms ho also acknow-
ledged himself smitten.

" The square of the Temple at Paris;' says the
Pays, " will very shortly be completely Enithed. Awarding
to the formally expreeeed intentions of the Emperor. the
Municipal Council intends erecting a bronze status of the
unfortunate monarch who underwent, io the building from
which the square takes its name, such a cruel captivity under
the reign of terror."
The new church which is about to be constructed
fur the Russian embassy and the Russians melding in Paris,

EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(TOOK 01/1 OWN COILISPONDENT.)
PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING.

The Mats, which has lately been accused of
pessimimn in regard to the affairs of India, now
very frankly admits the immense importance of the
capture of I)elhi. It saps:
. . . . . .

Without being the end of the iturarrection,it is beyond all
doubt the most ecotone reverse which the insurgents have
yet met with, and for the English the success has an immense
import. It surpasses the moat sanguine expectations that
were entertained In England, where people did not venture
to flatter themselves that the news could have been brought
by this mail. The general opinion wee that the sant&
could not be ►ttempted until the arrival of reinforcements
from Europe. That Delhi should have been taken by the
small force already before It, is the very beat news that
Gould have happened. Betting slide the material and poei-
tive result, the moral effect which will be produced by the
event upon the mind of the native population Ls of inesti-
mable value.

It is admitted by French writers that the Mar-
seilles despatch, which represented the English in
Delhi 111 being surrounded and cut off from provisions,
wu a maucaise plaisataerie, cococted by ignorance
or malice.

The Paine says it is enabled to contradict the as-
section of several journals that Nunez is coming to
Paris. On the contrary, he remains in Madrid with
the intention of taking his seat in the senate. He
and his friends have declared that they will offer no
factious opposition to any legally constituted
ministry.
An article, written to order, in the Constitution-
ma, by M. Renee, confirms all that I have lately
stated uto the French government being resigned
to give up the onion of the Principalities. Bo far
from seconding the wrathful menaces of the Pays and
Pairie, the Coestieutionnel, speaking upon better ad-
vice, does "not pretend, with some organs of the
press, that the question is conclusively settled " by
the votes of the Divans ad hoe. The Divans have
played their part—they were "consultative assem-
blies, but not a constituent or legislative assembly
having power to organise a government. That task
belongs to the Congress of Paris, which has never
thought of abdicating its prerogative." The plain
meaning of all this, when taken in jute position
with what we know of the machinations of diplo-
macy, is that the union of the Principalities is to be
thrown overboard. 1 have for some time considered
the question es virtually settled, and shall not return
to it unless unexpected circumstances should arise.
The Bourse did not at the opening maintain the
improvement which took place on the sudden at the
close of business yesterday. But when it was found
that Console were very firm, the Rente which

and was thenceforth well supported throughout the

For cash the fall was 10c., the last price being
Gar. 80c. Nlobilier rose 2fr. 50c. Railways were
geuerally a shade lower.
