FRANCE.

The addresses from certain parties in England to
the people of France, giving assurance of good wishes,
presented by Mr. Elihu Burritt, have been very
kindly noticed by several leading journals. The Siecle
quite responds to the sentiment that, no matter what
changes may take place in the forms of government,
they ought not to affect the sympathies of nations for
one another. As a sign of a general tendency to-
wards peace ideas, the Siecle regards with satisfac-
tion the addresses presented through Mr. Burritt.
The Pays and other journals have also some observa-
tions in a similar spirit. If the amiable philan-
thropist through whose hands the addresses in ques-
tion have been presented did no more than elicit such
responses, his labours are rewarded ; for these answers
serve to show that the idea of war with other coun-
tries is not much in vogue at present.
The Moniteur contains a decree promoting General
of Brigade LapCoe, is command of the artillery of
the Bth military division, to the rank of grand officer
of the Leg-ion of Honour. Another decree promotes
M. Blanqui, of the Institute ; and M. Vilene. Pro-
fessor of Philosophy at the College of Louis-le-Grand,
to the rank of officers.

The subscription in favour of Dr. Newman, opened
by the Univers, amounts to 17,578 f.
The Presse, in its weekly commercial bulletin,
says :—" The orders for exportation which usually
take place in the spring were retarded this year, and
have not been of their former importance, and conse-
quently the customs returns for the first half-year of
1852 showed a considerable falling off, but there is
reason to believe that the returns for the second half-
year will be more favourable, as the commission-
brokers who generally do not begin to give their
orders before September have been giving them
during the last three weeks. Business in almost
every branch of industry was very brisk in August,
and the manufacturers in the province agree in stating
that trade has improved. Several orders have arrived
from Russia. They are all for articles of the best
kind, as the rate of duties is so high in Russia that
it does not answer to import inferior articles. As
regards the harvest, the fine weather has dissipated
the exaggerated fears that were eutertained, and many
accounts now state that the yield is good. In the
Bas-Rhin, the Prefect has informed the Council-
General of his department that he had season to
believe the wheat crcp will exceed that of 1851 , and
that the crop of potatoes will be three er four times
more considerable than that of last year. We be-
lieve, however, notwithstanding what is now said,
that the crops of 1852 will not be found to be good
either in France or in the principal countries of
western Europe."

attract little attention from exporters.

to 12s 63. The rates demaded for Bengal and Mauri-
tius are 12s to 12s 6d, and 133 6d to 15s for Cuba and
Porto Rico; at present few buyers are to be met with,
and supply is more plentiful. Of Tamarinds several
parcels have been sold, East India at 7s to 12s, and
West India 24s to 425. A good demand exists for
Honey, Jamaica 35s to 545, Cubs 34s to 405, and Nar-
bonne 505 to 60s per cyst, but there is a more plentiful
supply.

posed of, good mid to good realised 603 to 633, low mid o
mid 54s to 593, other sorts 50s to 534 6d, small 48s to 49.3,

very full prices, good to fine ord at 45s 6d to 533. Of
Tellicberry 70 cases realized 56s for fine ord; but 450
bags Singapore Java were taken at 463 6d to47s for
good ord, being above the value. Native Ceylon met
with more attention, and the parcels sold privately were
at 43s 6d to 44s 6d for good to fine ord. Mocha is wanted,
and at former rates there are few sel:ers.
TEA.-There continues to be a large home trade de-
mand for low to good common Congou, with several ex-
port buyers, rates rule firm at 81 to Bid per lb. The
better sorts are held with firmness, but have been ope-
rated in with caution-rather blackish leaf to blackish
leaf at 94 to lOid, strong and Pekoe sorts lld to is 6d:
at a small reduction there are many buyers. Souchong is
still wanted, but no advance, supply being more plenti-
ful-the rates paid for common to mid are 8d to Is, good

still prices remain at 8d to I Id for low to mid, and is to

clean Pouchong at 5d to 7id, and there is no increase of
supply'. Operations in Green have been upon a small scale
during the last few days, still lower rates are rejects d
for good and fine qualities, but common and medium can
be obtained at a small reduction, supply being on the in-
crease. Prices rule as follows;-low to mid are is Oil

Is Bd. Few buyers are to be met with for Scented
Orange Pekoe, although there are sellers at is to Is 81

India, end prices have an upward tendency. Sales pri-
vately of Trinidad, good to fine red have been made at
37s to 445, low to mid 34s to 365, grey 305 to 335, Gre.
nada 29s to 345, and superior 355 to 365. A good bu-
siness is doing in foreign, and rates are firm. Bahia and
Para at 25s 6d tc 26s 61, and Guayquill 323 61 to 34s 61

accepted; buethere is yet a plentiful supply. At auction

but 3,686 bags Moulmein were nearly all taken in at
93 to 103 per cwt, but since sold rather under these
terms. Privately a fair quantity of Rice has been dis-
posed of at similar terms. Java is in smell supply, and
worth 9s 61 to 103 6d, and cargo 85 to 8s 6d. These
rates rather exceed those of last year; stock is 600 tons
smaller, and deliveries 70,000 larger. Cleaned has been in
good request, yet Carolinacan easily be obtained at 22s to
295, low to fine Patna 1 Is 6d to 17s, and American cleaned
103 to lls 6d. Prices are not better for Sago, still a
bettor demand exists, small 15s 6d to 17s, medium and
large 17s to 20s, and superior 223 to 28s. Of Sago
supply is not adequate for tne demand, and 143 6d to

FORBIDDING THR BANNS.—On Sunday morning
last, during divine servke in the chu ch of Sleaford, and
shortly after the Rev. R. Yerburgh had published the banns
of marriage, a stout rosy -faced lass rose in the midst of the
congregation, and forbade from further publication the banns
of marriage between herself and a certain Thomas Meet. it
seems the 4, ladye fair had two admirers, but the one who
caused the publication of the banns not being the favourite,
she took the above extraordinary mode of preventing her
own marriage.—Cambridge Chronicle.
The Marquis of Lansdowne, wbo has been suf-
fering severely from gout since his arrival at Bowood Park I
from town is rather better. The Earl and Countess of
6h ?1.12u
arne and their youthful family, and the Hon. James
and L dY Louisa Howard, are staying with his Lordship.
