liamentary Reform. Is Lord JOHN RUSSELL dis-
posed to assert the finality of the measure which he
has introduced ? Does he still repudiate the ballot,
and insist upon retaining a system only'calculated
keep up the balance of parties, or will he give
adhesion to a more equitable distribution of elect
power P These are points on which he must
frankly and unhesitatingly, if he wishes to r,
the confidence which he has long since forfeited,

As to the DERBY•DISRABLI Ministry going to
country upon the three promises of Reform enT
rated on. Monday evening by the CHANCELLOR Oi
EXCHEQUER, and dreaming for a moment of sec,
.to themselves by that means the support of
people of England, we may—in answer to se
correspondents—observe that the notion is not
else than absolutely • ridiculous. Fancy
one thing the disfranohisertlent of St. Ali
as a substitute for a broad and
prebensive measure of Parliamentary reform!
prospect of reforms in Chancery is well enoug,
be sure ; and the proper organization of the inti
defence of the country will not be quarrelled
as an advance step in the way of pro,
gressive improvement. But the mere idea that
the country is to be deluded into an
enthusiasm for those who held out these three re-
stricted baits in reference to the Militia, to Chan-
cery, and to St. Albans, is, to say the
least of :if,— rather than otherwise. -
The demands made by the mass of electors
from the various candidates about to appear before
them on the hustings will, we conjecture, be just a
trifle more enlarged in their tendency, embracing a
somewhat larger share of the materials for a more
extended civilization.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC,

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The leading articles are chiefly on the budget: They are,
however, for the most part analyses rather than commen-
taries.

The Moniteur contains a decree authorising small fund-
holders to transfer directly their Five per Cent. rentes to the
retiring pension fund for age, where it will be received at par
instead or cash. _ _

On Thursday the Court of Appeal condemned M. BocnEa
to one month's imprisenment and a fine of 200 f. The sentence
of the inferior Court on the accused was confirmed.
The anniversary service for the Empress JOSEPHDTE took
place on the same day in the church of Rueil. General
MAGNAN and several other general officers were present,
as were "
also several of the household of the PAKSIDENT of
the Republic.
Tne Duke DE RiaNzaans has arrived in Paris.

Three hundred persons condemned to transportation, most
of them to Lambessa, left Paris yesterday for Havre.
The commission which has pronounced the most condem.
nations, for the events of December, is that of the Basses-
Alpes. From this department there are nearly I,ouo persons
transported to Africa, and 41 to Cayenne.
The ball at the Hotel de YRle was very brilliant. The
number of persons present was estimated at between 5.060
and 6,000. The English residents appear to have had a large
share in the invitations, for we have seldom seen so many
assembled at a French soirée. The dancing commenced at
nine o'clock, and continued until a late hour.
The Memo, ial des Pyrenees states that the PRERBENT of
the Republic will this year visit Bordeaux, Bayonne, Tou-
louse, Mirseilles, and Toulon, anid perhaps Nantes and Brest.

There were moderate transactions here yesterday after-
noon in bills of exchange on the continental cities.
The amount of the precious metals exported from London
during the week to last Thursday, was 102,500 ounces of
silver, and 3,000/. in gold. The silver went principally to
Holland and Belgium.

' Foreign Securities have been subject to renewed fluctua-
tion, but the most remarkable change is in Buenos Ayres,
which have fallen 10 per cent., supposed to be in consequence
of information by the steamer Baltic that the troubles are
not concluded. The reaction after 20 per cent. rise is not
much to be wander at. The prices have been 68 to 72.
Brazilian Stock is at 99% to par. Equador keeps

Railway Shares continue in good demand, and a fair busi-

Gold Mines are quiet.
