OVERLAND MAIL.

We have recaived the following mess3ge by
electric telegraph, diTatched yesterday morning,

" The steamer Egitto has just arrived.

" The ste.ftmeri were to return immediately for
the second brigade.

" The Burmese troops had destroyed Prome, and
had posted themselves in musses on a height ten

" ['hey were said to be only 7,000 strong, with
a few guns."

FRANCE.

We have received the Paris jeuruals of yesterday.
Cabinet Councils arc daily 10-11 at St. Cloud. The
Afoniteur say:, :—" Some journals have spoken of a
Journey which they said the Prince President was
on the point of making in the north of France. We
are authorized to declare that the statement is en-
tirely unfounded."
Among thnumerous addresses presented to the
Prince President in favour of the reestablishment of
the Empire, published iu the bloniteur of this day,
is the following, from the Chaincer of Commerce
of Paris:—
" Monseigucur—You have said, L'Empire, c'est la
paix ;' that is to say, order, labour, credit, and an im.
pulse given to ell great public and private undertakings;
it is public welfare finding its way into all classes of so-
ciety ; it is general prosperity !
France, which has faith in your words, which relies
on all that you meditate for her happiness, and which
knows, by experience, that between your will and its
realizstien there is scarcely time for hope—France, by
her immense and unanimous acclamation, decrees to
you the supreme power.
" Yield to her wishes, Monseigneur ; it will constitute
another claim which you will acquire to her gratitude.
"The Commerce of Paris, of which we are the organ,
offers to you beforehand its sincere thanks. In order to
live and prosper it has need of peace, and it expects it
from you with the most complete security ; it compre-
hends that it Rill be the more solid and more durable,
as under your reign it will never be purchased at the
price of the honour and grandeur of our country."
Preparations are being male at the Luxembourg
for the extraordinary session which will commence
on the 4th November. The bureaux are busily em-
ployed in examining the petitions which every day
arrive from the departments in favour of the Empire.
Several clerks belonging to the different ministries
are, says the Constitutionnel, now employed at the
National Library in collecting all the details which
have been published relative to the coronation of dif-
ferent Kings, and of the Emperor Napoleon.
The Fresse, in its weekly commercial bulletin,
says :

" The commercial accounts of this week are not less
satisfactory than were those of the preceding one. The
activity in industrial affairs, end the well-maintained
improvement iu the public funds, have tended to excite
til() most sanguine hopes among our mercantile and
Illai?ufacturing interests for the winter reason. Extra-
ordinary activity prevails in the manufactories of PariP,
Where fear) are even entertained that they will not be able
to su.,
',Ply all the articles wanted for winter sale. Good
workmen have become so scarce that an increase of
'vvkzes has been given in almost all the manufactories."
The; mayor of Lisieux having submitted to the
I,ll,habitants✓of that town a petition for the Emperor,
.e text of which he announces to have been sent
o hun by the prefect of the department, the Presse
Bays

Bclkie Persons will, perhaps, be tempted to regard
1' intervention of the administrative authority as a
having revealed this detail. We consider, on the con-
trary,v that the prefect and the mayor have acted equally
ell, as they have conformed their conduct to prevailing
-ias';rlei,Plee Frank and avowed interference in the free
—n;eatations of the country is one of the principles
which belong to the present Government, and which
distinguishes it from preceding ones. This principle was
set forth for the first time, and with great clearness, by
de ,Morey, then Minister of the luterior, in the case
-1 the elections for the Legislative body. The Mayor
of Lisieux has, therefore, nothing to di•semble, because
the prefect of the Calvades has dune nothing isolated."

rsu„ultie to which the expedition to Rome gave rise. We
00 nllmved, however, to call to mind that the Go-
-Br,cernent of the President of the Republic declared in
,ritu that it asst an army into Central Italy, in order to
,Vvient that part of the Peninsula from falling under the
CSlelissive influence of Austria. A personal act of the

di're`q to deviate from the object to which it was
vss ; but, until we have proof to the contrary,
"c a`se a right to think that there has not been
„ °osplished at Rome what it was wished to ac-
t-r°itnPlish there in the name of France. The Aus-
sh,,,,stla and the Ultramontane party do not deceive
~,,_"`""lves on this point, and while affecting to feel
a,,atitude for the re ,establishment of the temporal power

,e,nrnent, they take the most active measures to ex French influence. Parma and the Duchy of Mo-
n• a
no longer enjoy any real irdepeudence; it will soon
the same with Tuscany and Lucca, which have only
farmed' one State since the death of Maria Louisa. So
the as regards Tuscany, the thing is clear from one of
clauses of the conetnercial league concluded with
fi4Stl'ttria, end which will be carried into activity at the
ra favourable opportunity. The Port of Leghorn,
which is to be enlarged and fortified, will become the
commercial
aid military port of the Customs' League,
,4„O1 Austria will keep up a permanent garrison there.
2:41s is not all: the Austrians will be charged to guard
the coast from the Piethnontese to the Boman frontier.
Is this clear? It is, however, on the ascendancy of the
clergy that reaction relies the most; every endeavour is
therefore made to abolish indirectly, at least, in Tuscany
the Loopoldine laws by means of a new Concordat with
Rome. However reactionary they may be, the pre-
sent Tuscany ministsrs, being accused of Josephism by
their opponents, must before long give place to others.

SPAIN.

Madrid advices are dated the 20'h.

The Clamor Public() states that the Government
int,ends to defer the construction of the Northern
Railway until the lines from Madrid to Valencia,
from Barcelona to Madrid, and from Mar to San-au-
der, kllllll have been completed, from a fear that a
monetary crisis might bf 4 produced by the withdrawal
of the capital necessary for the construction of so
many lines at the same time. M. Sanchez Mendoza,
who has obtained the concession for a line from Cadiz
!o Jerez, had returned from London, where he had
been to give orders for the materiel necessary for the
construction of the line.

A Madrid letter of the 20th says :—" General Au-
pick, the French Ambassador, since his return from
Bordeaux, has loudly expressed the interest felt by the
Prince President towards Spain, and his warm desire
to strengthen as much as possible the bonds of friend-
ship and good intelligence which now exist between
the two nations and their governments."
