TUB LEVOLUTIONARY BAN DR IN
BULGARIA.

The North-fact f'orresiefiAlle • hai a ,orn.nuni-
cation dated Belgrade, September 17, in which we
read:

I have already inform d y. u that MOMILSI well-arm d
bands have entered Bulga•ie ever Lom-Palaika. The
Pada of Widdin went out to mitt thsm, but Clay got
the start of him. and I am informed from a reliable
source that they have advanc d to Stara-rlanina, a large
mountain covered with timber, which eat sets to the
gates of the fortress of Widdin, which reed•rra its
occupation very dangerous to the Turks. Several
bridges have been destroy. d, an 1 Vie ramparts armed.
A panic prevails in the town of Widdin and the neigh-
bourhood. Many have come in from the country districts,
although the chiefs of the insurgents have:ssauresl Vie po-
pulation in proclamations that they nefal not. fear, as their
only enemy was the Turkish army. it eertaiu power is
carrying on its intrigues unremittingly. The 50,000 guns
which have been brought to the Danube, net by way of
RUPsia, but by Russia, have been distributed, and only
12,000 remain at Bu ,hur-st. The insurgents now in Bul-
garia are all armed with new and excellent
guns. The coincidence of these facts needs no
imminent. I learn on good authority that Baron von
Beust has had an interview recently. on this subject, with
ilaidar Miflin, the miniater of the Porte at in
which he urged the necessity of the guaranteeing powers,
or at least of the western powers. making a united repre-
sentation to the government of Bucharest against the
countenance which it gives to the revolution. They are
agreed on this point in Constantinople, and I ran announce
to you as a positive fact that an important diplomatic step
will be made immediately. People foresee something still
more serious, but I desire to speak only of positive fact:,
and nut of anticipations, however probable.

OUR PARIS LETTER.

(room ova *int comerolcoarr.
FIIIDLY EVENINto

The excitement which grew out of the con-
struction put upon certain expressions iu
the speech of the King of Prussia at Kiel
is dying out in Paris ; and the alarmists an•
beginning to think that no mischief was really
meant or concealed in the words of the Prussian
Sovereign. If his Majesty adverted with a very
natural pride to his naval and military strength.
he did no more than the Emperor of the French
has: done many times; and if he pointed
to his-power as a guarantee of peace he has only
followed in the wake of Napoleon 111. But then
King William expressly declared that he saw no-
thing in the whole of Europe at all threatening
the existence of peace, and his Majesty confirms
the sincerity of his belief by giving a signal for
European disarmament, and setting an example of
peculiar forty, coming from the conqueror
of Sadow•a. Will France give any such
pledge of a really peaceful tendency ? If

she does not, what are the conclusions to be
drawn' Will Franca become the threatener and
so maintain the uneasiness and apprehension
which prevail That seems to be the vital matter
for consideration at the present moment. I do
nut think that much importance is to b., attache:l
to the possible events of Prussia absorbing
the Grand Duchy of Baden, or of Fr:lllev
declaring that she would regstol as a
rosas kW the crossing of Prussia over
the left batik of the Muth t. If Prussia
contemplated immediate testi in the Grand
Duchy, it is impossible that in the face of
the disband' of France her Sovereign could
affirm that be saw nothing titivate !! i tt g the sta-
bility of peace, trod believe that this supposed
early absorption of the timid Duchy. and
the war to which it would inevitably lead,
is for the prisent. at all events, a gratuitous
assumption. It may hurt the purposes of
France. jeahms of the growing ik)wvt• of
Ih ussia. to anticipate further siggraniliiienients
as at justification for the mtbiutenamv of the im-
mense military and naval power to which, in a
very fo.w Franco has at.t titled.llitt then
this state of things brings its inoonveniences as
well am sacrifices. a practical exemplitleation of
which we saw on the Bourse the day before yes-
terday. The attitude of these two great military
powers is the point above all others upon which

the political mind of Europe is ooncentri
it is surrounded with an unusual and piirtentutu
mystery, is not the ruler of Prance risiiponsiiii,
fore Europe in a greater degree than Ow King of
Prussia

Another election is about to take place• in th,
second circumscription of the NiCvre, which will
be oonteated by a government candidate, in the
person of the Emperor's equerry, M. Philipp,
Bourgoing, and M. Girerd, a democrat. The libe-
ral candidate has no chance whatever, since, inde-
pendently of his opponent being backed with all
the influence of the government, he is a very large
landed proprietor in the neighbourhood, and there-
fore exe►cises considerable local influence, 11 At
ho is opposed at all, is perhaps to be wondered nt ,
but it seems to be a settled purpose on the part of
the opposition leaders to test at every election th
vitality and strength of independence.

The long talked of interview between the FenT,...
rer of the French and the Queen of Spain is 4n.
nounoed by the Figaro of this evening as 114‘
taken place to-day.
The Bourse has to-day very much repo t
from the panic of Wedneaday. French speeul
have observed that the foreign markets hut, n
no reason to share in their alarm, and they 1,1‘,.
consequently become less distrustful and
hopeful. The French Rents has gone op f.,
69fr. 15e., the Italian to 52fr. 20c., the Cr-14
Foncier has improved, and railway
rally have an upward tendency.
