PARIS, FEUDAY EvEcniu.

The Emperor has traced with his own hand a
plan for great improvements at Vichy. There is to
be a boulevard, a park, and public gardens. The
official journals say :—" Wherever the Emperor
goes he leaves the stamp of his greatness." Some
of them go so far as to say that Vichy will become
a second Baden-Baden, but they forget that the fa-
vourite watering-place of the Black Forest pos-
sesses supereminent natural beauties which no
human power can bestow upon such a flat dull
country as Vichy.

The Bourse was weaker than yesterday, but there
was scarcely any change in the final quotations.
Rents fell Sc. for cash, remaining for account at
yesterday's price-87ft. 73c. Mobilier and Credit
Fonder left off without change. There was hardly
any alteration in railways.
In the affair of M. Calley Saint-Paul, which, as
already stated, stands for judgment on Thursday
next, the public prosecutor (M. Genreau) was of
opinion that of the charges against him those of
"abuse of confidence " and of the distribution of
fictitious dividends in 1857 and 1868 were not
made out. But he submitted that there was proof
of the distribution of a fictitious dividend in 1869 ;
and he also thought that M. Calley Saint-Paul's
cross application for damages, on the ground of a
calumnious charge, ought to be dismissed.
A letter from Rome, iu the Patric, gives some
curious details :

Public attention here is concentrated on a second work
by IL Livarani, which is in everybody's hands, notwith-
standing the vigilance of the police, and which has produced
an effect which will not soon be forgotten. During a resi-
dence of eighteen years in the Eternal City, successively
a pupil of the Ecclesiastical Academy, • canon of Santa
Maria-in-Via-Leta and of Santa Maria-Major, domestic
prelate of his Holiness, and apostolic protonotary, he
has been let into the secrets of the Roman world, and
lived on a footing of intimacy with all those who govern
on, and is well able to relate their acts and deeds. The
work is entitled, " The Papacy, the Empire, and the King.
dom of Italy, r Memoir by Mgr. Francesco Liverani, Do-
mestic Prelate and Protonotary of the Holy See." It is
dedicated to Count de Montalembert, whom the author
reproaches with giving way to passion and anger in his
writings on the affairs of Italy, instead of employing the

on the position of the Roman court. He introdoces himself

es a man anxious to promote the welfare of all classes.

POLAND.

(Ms OUR OWN cos

WARSAW, TUT 24.
Whilst the foreign newspapers publish the ukases
of the Emperor Alexander concerning the organisa-
tion of the Council of State sad of the municipal
council in the kingdom of Poland, these so-called
reforms pass unnoticed by the inhabitants. These
new institutions are regarded here but as a new
wheel in the bureaucratic machine destined to faci-
litate the work of the government, but by no means
as representing the national interests and ten-
dencies. It is true that thirteen men, popular
among the inhabitants, have been called to the Council
of State, but these members have seats only in the
General Assembly, which is to be held in the month
of October, and are excluded from the permanent
Council of State, which is at present composed ex-
clusively of government epiphyte. Since 29 years
there has been the organic statute, a written law
which has never been legally abrogated, but still the
country has been submitted to all the horrors of a,
state of siege—to the arbitrariness of the Muscovite
bureaucracy and soldiery. Two or three ukases
cannot alter either men or an obsolete system.
Still less so ukases issued with a view to deceive
Europe, and to give occasion to the Nord and the
Indephiidanee Beige to dwell upon the liberal inten-
tions of the young and high-minded Emperor.
The Council of State, in its present composition,
is now busy preparing governmental projects,
which are to be submitted to the General Assembly.
Consequently the laws concerning the question of
the peasants and of the public schools will not be
discussed before the month of February next.
Thus everything remains in a provisional state.
Anarchy and arbitrariness will flourish as hereto-
fore, and the victorious bureaucracy is now pre-
paring the lists of the electors for the Council
of Territorial Governments (Gubernie), districts
and towns. The gendarmerie and the police assist
the civil authorities in this important task, and a
pretty electoral body may be expected out of it.
Emboldened by the example of what takes place
in the capital, the generals, colonels, officers, and
even common Cossacks, encroach upon the rights
and attributes of the ecclesiastical, administrative,
and judicial authorities. Every town possesses
now dictators in uniform, publishing decrees con-
trary to the existing laws, and by their violence
exasperating the people. In the end, however,
they will prove unable to stop the immense
impulse which animates the whole nation.

Among the proconsuls entrusted with the sway
of the different districts of this unhappy country,
General Count Oppermann distinguishes himself
at Radom' by his energy in petty veratiowinessee
and utter disregard of law and right. Enraged at
a charirari performed by some boys before the
house of au unpopular employ[, he ordered
troops, notwithstanding the boys dispersed at the
first summers, to clear the streets of the
town. As there was no crowd anywhere, the brave
Russian soldiers rushed upon the passers-by. Using
their butt-ends, they attacked every one who came
in their way, without any regard for age or sex, and
not content with plundering and stripping them of
all they had on them, they even entered the houses
in their eagerness for spoil. Several persons who
were traversing the town in carriages and carte were
drawn out of them, ill used, wounded and plundered
of everything they had about them. Thus AL
Grabowski, a lauded proprietor, was taken out of
his carriage, and both he and his coachman, thee
being stripped of all they had on them, were
wounded and dragged through the streets. Dr.
Brudzinski was wounded whilst returning from a
professional visit. Two travellers, Budzynski and
Korycki, were attacked and wounded at the hotel
where they had alighted. The same occurred to
the district employes Russocki and the confectioner
Grot. Lisowaki, a student in the lower classes, and
the boy Raszewski, son of a government emp/oy!,
are so severely wounded that their recovery is
despaired of.
The day atter this wanton outrage several notable
citizens went to the governor to ask him the reasons
for such conduct. Re received them with his usual
Germano-Muscovite rudeness, and declared to them
that rebels have nothing less to expect. In spite of
this declaration a complaint has been sent here ;
but what justice can be expected from a higher
sathority which sets the example for such brutal
abuse of power and force
