Mining Journal, of the manager of the Spitty Copper
Works at Llanelly, and of the Mechanic's Magazine,
it would appear that in BAGGS'S Patent Gold Quartz
Stamp-Machinery, a really valuable boon, has been
secured to the mining world generally, but more par-

It is uaaer t
s oud that not only will there be no
military review on the 15th, but the National Guards-
ere not to receive the eagles, so long intended and
promised. The new flags will probably be sent to
the Legion without any ceremony. The conclusion
drawn irom these rumours are little flattering to the
Bourgeoisie.
The Municipal Council of Avignon has voted
25,000 f. for files to be given on the occasion of the

We read in the Moniteur—" There exist along the
coasts of Algeria coral-banks of great richness, which,
notwithstanding the efforts of the administration to
encourage the natives of France, are worked in great
part by foreigners. In order to turn as much as pos-
sible that fi.bery to the profit of our own manufac-
turers, the Minister of War has just decided that
there shall be granted for the preparation and cutting
of coral in Algeria premiums of 300 f., 200 f., and
100 f., with medals in silver and bronze. These re•
compenses are comprised in the general list of prizes
to be accorded for the agricultural and industrial ex-
hibition which is to take place at Algiers in the month
of September next.
The body of Marshal EXCELMANs has been depo-

Marshal laitisrz and General ORNANo have each
been spoken of as likely to succeed the late Marshal

Honour. A Paris correspondent of a Brussels journal
states that the decision of the PRINCE PRESIDENT has
been made in favour of General Ousierio.
The llaroniteur Algirieu of the 30th ult. publishes a
list of pardons and commutations granted to a certain
number of the transported prisoners, among them
four from the department of the Seine. They are
M. J. B. SANDOZ, whose sentence has been commuted
into that of surveillance, and MM. ISIDORE LAMERS,
A. GARDEMBAS, and A. DESGRANGES, Who are to be
expelled from the French territory.
