MADRID, SEPT. 13.

The Gazette contradicts the rumour of the
entrance of new bands of rebels into Spain from
the frontier of France. It announces the payment
of the total arrears of the interest of the debt.

FRANCE.

PARIS, FRIDAY EVENING.

The rumour is current that Gortschakoff has
BAua.lly abandoned the north side of Sebastcpol.
It is reported that 25,000 men have embarked
at Balaklava for the north of Sebastopol, in order
to be ready to cut off the retreat of Prince Gort-
schat: off's army, should that general attempt to
fall back upon Perekop. The Russian army is
known to suffer from want of water.

The Emperor, says a letter from St. Omer, is
daily expected here to review a brigade which is
to set out shortly for Rome.

General Canrobert has declined the Field-
Marshal's baton, which has been offered to him.
The reason he assigns is, that his acceptance of that
dignify. would diminish the lustre of General
Pelimier's, won as it has been on so bloody a field
and iby so glorious a triumph. The refusal does
the greatest honour to General Canrobert.
Th.t) Moniteur of yesterday gives a long descrip-
tion of the ceremonial of the Te Deum, at Notre
Dania, in celebration of the capture of Sebastopol.
The following is the address of the Archbishop of
Paris, made to the Emperor on his arrival at the
cathedral :

" Si re,—l hasten to receive your Majesty on the
threshold of this august temple, which echoes this day
to the loud fame of France's glory.
" May our solemn thanksgivings ascend to God for
the sill nal success with which he has just crowned our
arms !

"So much heroism will soon receive its reward. The
great object which your Majesty in concert with your
allies is pursuing with so mush firmness and wisdom
will not fail to be attained ; a glorious and lasting peace
will be achieved."
The Emperor replied—

" I come here, Monseigneur, to thank Heaven for
the triumph it has vouchsafed to our arms, for I take
pleasure in acknowledging that, however great the
skill of the generals and the courage of the soldiers,
nothing can succeed without the protection of Provi-
dence,"

The Mowiteur publishes a report to the Emperor
on the operations of the three Colonial Banks
in the course of last year. It appears from it
that business done in that of Martinique amounted
to 7,684,098 f, ; of Guadeloupe, to 7,800,320 f. ;
and of La :.:.eunion, to 10,202,400 f. ; also that on
the 31st December the amount of notes in circula-
tion was in Martinique, 1,143,675 f. ; Guadeloupe,
2,223,675 f. ; and La Reunion, 3,886,000 f.
The committee of the banquet to be offered to
Prince Napoleon has held several sittings, and it
is almost resolved that it will take place on the
same day as the ball which the city is to give to
the exhibitors at th,9 Hotel de Ville.

A body of about 100 Russian prisoners arrived
yesterday at Lyons from the depot of the Isle of
Aix, on their way to Marseilles. They are there
to be embarked for the Crimea, in order to be ex-
changed against a like number of French soldiers
taken by the Russians.
The Paris corn market again closed on Wednes-
day with a further advance of about 2f. the sack
of flour, which has now attained the price of 106 f.
the 157 kilo;.
