FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

PARIS, TUESDAY EVENING,

I am informed that, at the conference held a
Hongkong in the beginning of July last, at which
Lord Elgin, Admiral Seymour, and General Ash-
burnham were present, Admiral Guerin, who,
pending the arrival of Admiral Rigault de
Genouilly, commands the French fleet in the
Chinese Seas, announced officially that he had
received instructions from Paris to act in concert
with the English commanders.

The elections in Moldavia arc to take place a
fortnight after the new electorial lists shall have
been submitted to the representatives of the Powers
The difficulty at Constantinople completely sur-
mounted, the threatened quarrel between Sardinia
and Naples averted, and in the absence of any topic
of interest in European polities, the French papers
devote a large portion of their space to our Indian
affairs. It is for the interest of France, as of all
commercial countries, that the insurrection should
be speedily suppressed, and tranquility restored.
It is in this sense, and in a very friendly spirit,
that the great majority of these journals express
themselves. Some of them, alarmed by the
denunciations of vengeance they have lately seen
in English papers, plead, although timidly, the
cause of clemency. Thus, to-day, the Debats
says :

Reflaction will follow anger exasperation, and thirst of
vengeance. Humanity, clemency, and generosity will re•
gain the upper hand and ultimately triumph. Our esteem
for England, and our knowledge of the country, convince
us that she will not apply the law of retaliation to her
revolted subjects in India.

The Constitutionnel concludes a summary of In.
dian intelligence with the following passage :

Although the English are in a very difficult position,
they have confidence in their energy and resources ; and
should they be even compelled to re-conquer a great por-
tion of India, and to re-establish their authority ou a fresh
basis, it is not doubtful that they will rise superior to the
crisis. The events taking place in India are of immense
importance in a financial as in a political point of view,
and we easily conceive the impatience with which all the
commercial cities of Europe await intelligence from Cal-
cutta and Bombay. Not only the interes's of England,
but also those of Europe, are at stake before the walls of
Delhi.

The Bulletin des Lois publishes a degree pro-
mulgating the treaty for marking out the frontiers
between France and Spain, concluded on the 2nd
of December last. It also contains a decree
announcing the reception, under the ordinary
reserves, of the brief given at Rome, on the 31st of
March last, by Pope Pius IX., and authorising, at
the request of the Emperor, the canonical institu-
tion of his grand almonry. The brief is published
in Latin and in French, after the decree, and occu-
pies not less than seven pages.
Marshal Randon has arrived in France. Jules
Favre. the advocate of the Aga Bel-Hadj, has
reached Paris, accompanied by the Aga's son, to
try to obtain a commutation of the sentence
of 20 years hard labour. Captain Doineau
at first refused to appeal to the superior
court. He was in a state of great exasperation.
His brother at last prevailed on him to sign
the necessary paper. The Gazette des Tribunaux
says that he heard' his sentence to death with
peifect calmese, but that, when the President
of the Court declared him dishonoured, and
degraded from the dignity of member of the
Legion of Honour, he manifested emotion 13%
returned to his prison with a firm step; If his
punisment be not commuted, he will be executed
on the public square of Oran. In consequence of
what has transpired on this- trial, the Emperor
has issued an order prohibiting summary execu•
tions in Algeria. A similar order was issued in
Louis Phillippe's time, but has not been very
strictly observed.
