FRIDAY

EVENING,

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received abe Paris jeurnais
The Patrie announces that a Ministry of Police
will be organiz3d, and that the new Minister of Police
will be M. DE MaueAs. We presume that M. DE
MAMPAS will take FOUCHE and SAvARY as his models.
The anniversary of the execution of Louis XVI.
was observed as strictly as it was wont to be under the
regime of the Restoration.
The &foniteur publishes three decrees, signed by
the PRESIDENT of the Republic and the inisters of
Finances and Public Works, for the repurchase of the
rights belonging to the company of the Burgundy
Canal, the company of the canal from the Rhine to
the Rhone, and the Quatre Canaux.
The .11Ioniteur publishes also a decree permitting
sugar refiners to receive foreign raw sugars for the
purpose of being refined and re-exported free of duty ;
and another decree fixing the import duty on manu-
factured tobacco, with the exception of cigars, at 10f.
per kilogramme.
The salaries of the Government administrators of
the telegraphic lines have just been fixed by decree—
the chief at 15,000 f., the first deputy at 10,000 r.,
the second at 9,000 f.
We read in the Gazette de France :—" It is said
that the costume of the senators will be magnificently
embroidered, atleast if we may believe the designs which
an artist has been ordered to draw. It is not yet
known whether the coat will be in cloth or in velvet,
the cut of it will be quite French, but more elegant
than any that has been yet seen. In bringing em-
broidery into use for functionaries, it is wished to
fresh impulse to that branch of industry which
severely both in Paris and at
gbaivselo a
long been suffering
Nancy.
Several architects (says the Gazette de France)
are now engaged in drawing up artistical plans for
the national fete, Which
is to tak place towards the
end of next month, in honour of the Constitution of
1852. In order to 'attract a great number of visitors
to Paris, it is in contemplation to have thefite con-
tinue for eight days, each day to be marked by a
special programme.
We read in the Constitutionee/:—,, A report has
recently been addressed to the Government of Putch
Guiana, by M. SPANDELWICH, an engineer, giving
an account of the discovery of auriferous lands at the
southern extremity of the province of Paramaribo.
A committee
Was immediately formed to examine
into the reality
and importance of this discovery. If
the fact be confirmed it will merit the attention of
France and England, whose possessions in that part
of America are contiguous to those of Holland. It
is well known that the geological and mineralogical
constitution of all the region comprised between the
Atlantic, the Amazon, the Rio Negro, the Cassi-
quiare, and the Oronoco, known under the general
name of Guiana, is entirely similar."
The Edo de la Frontiers :states that the Belgian
police on the French frontier exercise the sharpest
surveillance over every foreigner who presents him-
self. A special egent inspects every traveller, and
examines with the greatest minuteness the passport of
each, and the
party presenting it.
The Public states that the Bulletin Francais, con-
ducted at Brussels by M. ALEXANDER THOMAS, and
which contained some sharp attacks on the French
Government, has been suppressed by the KING of the
BELGIANS. M. THOMAS and his co-editors have been
expelled from Belgium.
A species of panic prevailed at the Bourse caused by
the announcement of the withdrawal of M. de Morny
from the Ministry of the Interior. The Five per Cents.
opened at 103 f. 25c., and fell to 102 f. 50c., at which
prico they closed for the end of the month; the Three
per Cents. closed at 65c. 25c.; Orleans Railroad Shares,
