The committee of the Corps Legislatif sat on
Sunday, and continued to examine and certify the
returns of votes on the plebiscite. It is now certain
that the result will be communicated to the As-
sembly on Wednesday, and borne by the whole
house to St. Cloud the same evening. The pro-
clamation of the Empire will be made next day at
the Tuileries, in presence of all the great bodies of
the State. The President will come to Paris from
St. Cloud on horseback, surrounded by his family,
by the Ministers, his staff, &c. All the army of
Paris will be under arms.

The Press- e, in its weekly commercial bulletin,
says :—" There has been this week less activity in
the manufactories of Paris, most of the orders for
the new year, as regards the capital, having been
completed ; but there has been no great falling off
in the business for the departments, and new and
important orders have been received from abroad.
The manufacturers of articles of luxury and fancy,
called Articles do Paris, and especially of jewellery
and bronzes, have sent large quantities to foreign
countries, principally to the Brazils, Mexico, and
the Havanna, and also to the French West India
colonies. The silk manufacturers at Lyons con-
tinue to execute orders for England and the United
States of America. Every packet from New York
brings fresh orders for rich silks and velvets, and
also for the manufactures of Mulhouse."

At the reception at Saint Cloud, on Saturday,
says the Constitutionnel, a member of the Legis-
lative body asked the Prince President whether the
time had not arrived for using the word Sire in
addressing him. The Prince smiled and replied,
" No, not yet let me enjoy the short time that is
still left to me (Laissez-moi jouir demon reste)."
The vote of the House of Commons on the
motion of Mr. Villiers, and the amendment of Sir
James Graham, is noticed in the leading columns
of nearly all the journals. The Pays enters into
on inquiry as to the probable effect of this vote,
and in doing so indulges in remarks which indicate
anything but a desire that it should tend to the
consolidation of the Derby Ministry. Towards
Lord Palmerston the Pays is very complimentary,
and the influence which the noble lord has obtained
in the new House of Commons by the peculiar
policy which he has adopted, is regarded by the
Pays as of a nature to render his return to office
almost indispensable.
The Debats, in concluding its summary of the
proceedings in the House of Commons, says—

" This was the first time that the new Parliament was
called on to give a political vote, and that which it has
given is a proof of a difficult state of things. The last
elections appear not to have produced a decided majority
and serious embarrassments will necessarily result from
it. There must, however, be no exaggerations. The
representative regime practised by men so intelligent and
sincerely patriotic as the English possesses wonderful
elasticity and resources. We may be allowed to foresee,
in a not distant future, the necessity of a ministerial mo-
dification ; but the prudence and moderation, which
have presided over these long discussions, prove that
this modification will be made without effort and with-
out danger for the country."
It is now understood on all hands that all the
Foreign Powers will at once, and without any diffi-
culty, recognise the new order of things. M. de
Kisseleff has returned, charged with the instruc-
tions of the Northern Courts, which are of the
most satisfactory description, to the Government
of France. Several of the corps diplomatique have
already received from their respective Courts the
dispatches which recognise the Empire, and ac-
credit them as Ministers at the Court of Napoleon
111. There is a lively emulation amongst them as
to which shall be first to present his credentials. It
is a most curious fact that the Ministers who are
first in the field are the representatives of the
House of Bourbon, viz., the representatives of
Naples and of Spain.
During his term of office, Louis Napoleon has
reduced the French army by 76,000 men. It may
not be uninteresting to quote a valuable statistical
paper which has just been prepared, and which
shows how much Louis Napoleon has reduced the
very sinews of war. It appears, under the reign
of Louis Philippe, the credits allowed by the
Chamber for naval expenses amounted in—
