PARIS, MONDAY Rums°.
A novelty is announced this year for the Fête
Napoleon of August 15. On that day the Emperor,
the Empress, and the grand dignitaries of the em-
pire will attend a solemn inauguration of the Pallas
of the Louvre, which will then be entirely finished.
All the architects, sculptors, and artiste of every
description who have taken part in the great work,
will have seat. assigned to them at this ceremony.
In consequence of the Whit-Sunday holiday there
are no morning papers to-day. The Presto remarks
upon the passage in M. Billault's circular, express-
ing a confident hope that if.. the imperceptible mi-
nority of hostile parties should dare to come
forward, it will bo overwhelmed by an im-
mense popular manifestation :"—"A doubt here
crosses our mind, which we take the liberty
of expressing. Is it to be absolutely understood
that every man who may vote against the official
candidate belongs to a hostile party? May there
not be, for example, quite independently of party,
differences of opinion about local matters? At all
events the English do not understand opposition in
this light, for in England the opponents of govern-
ment, whether Whigs, Tories, or Radicals, call
themselves, and arc called, her Majesty's opposition."
Marshal Castellane has left Lyons, for Geneva,
by order of the Emperor, to pay a visit of ceremony
to the Empress Dowager of Russia.
The sing of Bavaria will stay in Paris till June

12.
The Bourse has boon dull. The Route fell 15c.
for cash and 10c. for account, closing at 88fr. 25e. in
each cue. In Mobilicr and the railways there was
no alteration worth noticing.
A work destined to produce a certain sensation
will appear on Thursday next, entitled "The His-
tory of tho Fall of Louis Philippe, of the Republic
of 1818, and of the re-establiahment of the Empire."
The author is M. Oranier de Camagane, a vigorous
writer, but a reckless partisan. On this occasion he
derives his facts direct from the highest quarter, and
gives piquant acoounto of various schemes for a
coup d'etat which were suggested to Louis Napo-
leon, and rejected by him. It seems that General
Ilangarnier, M. Thies, and M. de Falloux, all pro-
vaned coups d'etat to get rid of the republican con-
stitution.

The village of Nanterre, the birth-place of the
patron saint of Paris, St. Gene%Uve, was thrown
into an extraordinary state of consternation yester-
day by the refusal of the cure to crown the Rosier.
of the year elected by the Municipal CoanciL In
11111 X. Ma'herb° left a handsome legacy for the
palms of paying a marriage portion to the most
virtuous girl of Nanterre, and ever since that year,
until yesterday, the ceremony of crowning the
happy young creature with roses has always been
performed in the Nanterre Church with great
pomp, crowds of people coming from Paris
to witness the scene. It seems, however, that
the care, rummaging over the statutes of M. Mal-
herbe's will, lately discovered that no maid is eligible
to be a rosiere wiles she shall have been to confes-
sion at least once during the year. Muffle. Eugenie
Francine Delaunay, who had been elected by the
municipal council by an enormous majority, was
unable to produce a billet de confession, and, Uric Woe
lachrymoc, the tears which flowed fast from the
rosy cheeks of the disappointed aspirant for St.
Genevieve's mantle of virtue, commanded the sym-
pathy of the public, and more especially of the
mountebanks and gingerbread sellers, who found
themselves in the evening without customers in the
dull and dusty streets of that remarkably ugly town.
The Press* says, in its weekly commercial review:
Business in the Tans mannfactoms, without being very
active, is satisfactory. The stork in hied is greatly dimi-
nished, in consequence of purchases by agents et provincial
honors. The progeot of a good lancet esicommiss the
