Rumours are rife of Ministerial modifications to
take place on the return of the Prince President to
Paris. M. Bineau is again spoken of as the future
Minister of the Interior, and M. Achille Fould as the
successor of the present Minister of Finance ; while
M. de Beville, Colonel of Engineers, and attached to
the household of the President, is the most likely can-
didate for the important post of Minister of State.
One difficulty attends these arrangements, that is
with reference to the Minister of the Interior, about
whose future position it is not so easy to determine.
It is certain that the entrance of M. de Beville
into the Cabinet, and particulary as Minister
of State, would be especially agreeable to
the President, who is desirous of giving to
that department all the importance formerly at-
tached to it. The bureaux of that branch of the
Government prepare that immense mass of projects
which are to be submitted to the head of the State,
and which are subsequently transmitted to the Mini-
sters respectively. All that concerns foreign policy,
all the plans of melioration and reform, are first con-
cocted in the Cabinet of the Minister of State, who
may be considered as a general director, while the
other members of the Cabinet are, more or less, in a
subordinate capacity. The Minister of State, in fact,
as everything is concentrated in his hands, is pre,
sumed to be familiarly acquainted with all the details
of Government. Whether from devotedness to his
person, or from the idea entertained of his superior
capacity, M. de Beville is the man whom the Presi-
dent would most gladly see at the head of that depart-
ment. He was spoken of several months ago, and his
is one of the appointments that is considered as most
likely to take place before long.
Monseigneur Sibour, Archbishop of Paris, has ar-
rived in Paris from his visit to the Rhenish provinces.
Monseigneur Jean-Antoine-Doumer, Bishop of In-
dianopolis, has arrived in Paris from the United
States.
The Roman Catholic Archbishop of Tuam, the
Bishop of Down and Connor, and the Bishop of Clon-
fert, arrived in Paris on Friday evening. Dr. Cullen
and the Roman Catholic Bishop of Ross are expected
to join them immediately. The object of their visit
is connected with the Irish College in Paris. The
French Government, it appears, exercises only a pro-
tectorate over the funds of this establishment, and the
Irish Bishops regulate the discipline and the personnel
of the College.
There is a rumour of an intention on the part of
these five prelates to wait on the President of the Re-
public, whose return to Paris will take place before
their departure.
A letter from Strasburg of the 24th states that
whilst the waters of the Rhine and the Ill are falling
gradually, other disasters are announced. The water
which entered by the breach made near Artzenheim,
in the Haut-Rhin' has established a fresh current in
front of Rhinau. The losses caused by this last flood
are enormous. There have been eight houses swept
away at Richtolsheim, 12 at Saassenheim, 25 at
Rhinau, 12 at Beeftzheiro, and 10 at Obenheim.
There are several other bhiidings so seriously
damaged, that it will become necessary to repair
them before they can be inhabited. The re-
turns of the losses sustained at Artolsheim
Schcenau, Diebolsbeirc, and Friesenheim had no t
been received at Strasburg, but it is known that the
inhabitants of Oherheim have suffered enormously,
having been for a long time exposed to the fury of
the torrent rushing in from the breach made in the
embackment at Rhinau. It is to be mentioned to
the honour of the inhabitants of Baden that when
they were apprised of the melancholy position of
Rieman they sent there several boats laden with pro-
visions for the sufferers. The inhabitants of the
neighbouring villages likewise rendered all the as-
sistance in their power. The commune of Mataenheim,
which contains only a population of 700, has taken
charge of 50 children, which are lodged and fed until
their parents can claim them. According to the ac-
counts from the Haut-Rhin, the overflowing of the
Rhine and the Ill has caused terrific disasters in that
departmnnt. A subscription has been opened through-
out Alsace for the sufferen, and the Bas-Rhin has
already raised 200f. towards the charitable work.
