The ease of the Napoleon Docks was proceeded
with to-day. MM. Nibelle, Ihdbure, and Nogent
St. Laurens made speeches in defence of MM. Cusin,
Legendre, and Duelthie de Vvre. To-morrow MM.
Marie and Chevy will be beard for MM. Berrycr
and Orsi. It is thought that the public prosecutor
will reply, and ifs° it is scarcely possible that judg-
ment can be given to-morrow.
The Boone has been very firm all day. The Route

rose 25c. both for cash and account, closing at
70fr. 40c. and 70fr. 46c. Mobilier rose rapidly in
the morning, but gave way before the close, and left
off with but a trifling advance on Saturday's prioe.
Railways were very animated. Mediterranean rose
26fr ; Orleans and Northern, 12fr. 60e. each;
Lyons, 16fr.; Eastern, 10fr. ; Western, 7fr. 60c.;
Southern, 2fr. 60c.; Grand Central, 6fr. A great

movement took place in Austrian railways, which
were done at an advance of lbfr., in consequence of
a rumour of a telegraphic despatch from Vienna,
stating that at the Saturday's Bourse there had been
a rise of 7E, and that the receipts for the week had
augmented by 10,0001 i.
The complicated state of accounts between the
Orand Central Railway and M. de Monty, which
has frequently been spoken of since the departure of
the latter for St. Petersham, was a special subject of
conversation at the Bonne to-day.
M. Doom had an interview with the Emperor at
nine o'clock yesterday morning, his Majesty having
desired to see him on the subject of his international

credit bank. There is a talk of a fusion with a
similar establishment, projected by the syndicate of
bankers, with M. Rothschild at the head.

The Council of State had an extraordinary meet-
ing yesterday, to discuss the grave question of the
tax upon transfers of railway shares. It is under-
stood that the ministerial project was not approved
of in detail. The principle of the tax is, however,
maintained, and the council proposes to indict very
severe penalties upon parties who may negotiate
shares without the intervention of a regular epos
de change.

A telegraphic despatch received in Perim reports
the almost sadden death of the Ciimacan of Mol-
davia, the Wornich Theodoritsa Saheb., formerly
Commandant of the National Militia. He was an
old man and had only accepted the functions of
Ciimacan, temporarily in compliance with the press-
ing solicitations of the divan. It is thought that no
successor will bo appointed and that a provisional
government council will fulfil the duties of the
Cainureanty until the new organisation of the Prin-
cipalities shall be settled.
A letter from Berne of Feb. 28, in the Prone, says
that owing to the collective and reiterated efforts of
the great powers Prussia has at length shaken off
her vie inertige, and that the Conferences will pro-
bably meet in Paris before the middle of the month.
A letter from London, of Feb. 28, states that
Colonel Ouseley, after having had a long conference
at the Foreign Office, on Persian affairs, had left for
Paris.

The Emperor's principal chaplain, the Bishop of
Nancy, is about to start for Rome, to pay the visit
ad liming to the Pope which the members of the
episcopacy arc in the habit of making every four
years.
In the Paris corn market during the past week

business has been moderate, with a tendency to
lower prioee. The four marks at first were quoted
. . .

at 79i., but after Wednesday that peke could not
be obtained. The reserve at the Halle le at present
somewhat over 9,000 metrical quintals. Wheat
has been in but little demand. Fine qualities from
the Nord were at from 44fr. to 43fr. the hectolitre
and a half; and good Device at 42fr. and 43fr. The
country markets are generally lower. Within the
last two days upwards of 30,000 hectolitres of
wheat arrived at Marseilles. The market is there
stated to be calm.
