EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(rams 0171 Owl! CORRISPOVDIINT.)
PARIS, FRIDAT EVENIWO.
The split between the leaders of the opposition in
Paris is decided. The Debtsls, Sic('le, and Presse,

adhere to the list of candidates originally published
by the two latter journals, and the Courrier de
Paris and Estafette nail their colours to another.

The difference, however, bears only upon five oat of
the ten cireumacriptione, namely, the let, 4th, 7th,

Bth, and 10th. For the five others the namta are

identical in the two lista, namely, Bethmont (2nd),
Cavaignac (3rd), Carnot (3th), Gondeluta: (Gth), and
• • .

will therefore Mill be supported by the united
strength of the active opposition party in Paris.
The list which I mentioned yesterday tia having
been agreed upon by the committee, supported by
the Costrrier de Paris, has been again slightly

changed. M. Jean Reynand is brought forward for
the Ist circumscription instead of M. Jules Simon,
who is transferred to tho Bth ; and M. Eugene
Pellotsn, of the &irk, is selected to oppose Dc,
Veron in the lOth circumscription (that of &eau:).

In order to avoid confusion, and u the mat-

ter now really assumes considerable import-
ance, I copy this last revised list as given
authoritatively by the Courrier de Paris and
Estajette of this evening. It is as follows :—" Jean
Reynaud, ex-representative (Ist circumscription),
Bethmont, ex-representative (2nd), General Cavaig-
nee, ex-representative (3rd), Gamier Pages, ex-re-
presentative (4th), Carrot, ex-representative (3th),
Gondehaux, ex-representative (6th), Jules Bostide,
ex-representative (7th),J ales Simon,ex-representative
(Bth), Ferdinand de Lasteyrie, ex-representative
(9th), Eugene Pelletan, of the Sleek (10th).

All the -above candidates, vrith the camp-

tion of M. Pelletan, who is absent from Paris,
have signed their bulletins, and deposited them at

the parquet, so that they are legal candidates com-
ing in their own names, pursuant to the decision of
_ .

the Court of Caseation. The Cuurrier and &estate

give the above ma a list recommended "at a meet-
ing of ex-representatives, ex-ministers, ex-council-
lors of state, AT., &c., constituted as an electoral
committee," and (ignoring the list of the Debuts,
Prase, and &eel') observes, " All the other candi-
datures, therefore, except the above and those pub-
lished by the organs of government, mast be con-
sidered only as individual candidatures."
The Daats, in publishing the list of the Sieele
and Presge, thus cautiously proclaims its adhesion to
the coalition :
It is searrely aseomsoy to se to observe that this Lid con-
tains the a 5.... al soma vary haboarahle mos whose
opinions are sot ems, sad from wheel we we separated
by a marked Memos at views. By the aide of

those names figure Chen which for divers rea-
sons caurnand oar sympathise, and which we should
wish to are honoured by the choice of the electors of
Paris. We allude to the names of MM. Veen, former
liquidator of the civil Int of Louis-Philippe ; Ferdi-
•aad de Lasterie, member of our former Chamblee; Hey-
non, former eub-prefect of Bees= ; Hethment, one of the
moat distinguished mneben of the Paris bar; our colleague,
M. &doused Lsboulays ; General Cavalgnac, who will always
have a della on the gratitude of the country. The mew
when names we have quoted do not all repreerat the same
shade of opinion, but they belong to the liberal cause, and
have gins sofficient proof at their attachment to order. We
exclude no name, we merely point out our pretence..
Th. Press* declares itself well satisfied with this
manifesto. It thinks the reserves of the Debate per-
fectly legitimate in its point of view. The Debate
maintains its own independence, while it respects
that of the electors. This attitude is also ours."

Among the most important new opposition can-
didates in the departments are M. Dafaure, the
eminent advocate and ex-minister in the Charente
Inferieure, and M. Marie, of the provisional govern-
ment, in the Yonne.
At the Bourse the market was very buoyant, and
the Route in great demand. It was announced that
the French Rentes would be quoted and transferred
on the London Stock Exchange, and reciprocally
the English Consols quoted and transferred on the
French Bonne. The returns of the Bank of France
published this morning are considered as very
favourable, the bullion having increased blf mil-
lions, the portefeuilles decreased 34 millions, and the
circulation of notes 14 millions. The market con-
tinued to improve to the close, the government
broker making large purchases, in order, it was re-
ported, to invest the funds of the military dotation.
The Bente rose 50c. for cosh, 55e. for account,
closing at 68fr. 40c. and 68fr. 60c. ; Mobilier rose
20fr. The Orleans Railway rose 20fr., Mediterranean
27fr. 50c., and the other lines front sfr. to lOfr.
A telegraphic despatch from Dijon, dated one
o'clock this afternoon, states that the long-pending
lawsuit between the State and the Count de Cham-
bord has been decided in favour of the latter. The
Crown will doubtless appeal to tho Court of
Cessation.
A fire broke out yesterday afternoon, in the kn.
stores of the cavalry barracks at Fontainebleau, sal
at one time threatened to destroy the entire range
of buildings. It was, however, got under in lass
than an hour. This fire, following so quickly
upon those at St. Germain and Versailles,
leads to the suspicion that incendiaries mast
have been at work. The authorities have
ordered an enquiry. It is stated that at Versailles
the remains of lucifer matches were found among the
ashes of the straw consumed.
The sale of several of Paul Delaroche's pictures
took place to-day, and attracted a vast crowd d
dealers and amateurs to the auction mart. The priest
obtained were very high. The small picture of the
" Virgin with holy women on Good Friday," was
knocked down at 41,000 fr. " A martyr in the time of
Diocletian" produced 36,000 fr. A reduced copy of
the famous Ilemicycle, of the theatre of the Beaux
Arts, brought 43,900 fr. "Christ, the Friend of the
Afflicted," a picture less than ten inches high, pro-
dnoed 7,400 fr. An agent of the Marquis of Hert-
ford was present, and it is thought that he made
several purchases.
" The country house of M. Duchdne de Vere, well
known as connected with the Napoleon Docks affair,"
says the Courrier de Paris, "has just been sold to
)1. Arnauld, director of the Hippodrome, for
165,000 fr. This house, which is admirably situated
at the entrance of Boulogne, had attracted the notice
of the Duke de Malakoff, who wished to purchase it,
but did not succeed."
