"X. DE CASABLANCA, Minister of State."
MM. NADAUD, RACOUCHOT, and FAURE, ex-re-
presentatives of France, arrived yesterday in Brussels,
with passports given by the Government.
The Patrie publishes the following official commu-
nicated note :—" For some time back certain journals
have spoken of private letters which they pretend the
PRESIDENT of the Republic has addressed either to
several sovereigns or to the POPE. It is only in an
official manner that the PRESIDENT has written to the
heads of the various states. No correspondence of a
political character has taken place between him and
them."

The 31oniteur Parisien says—" We are informed
that the differences between France and Morocco are
in a fair way of being amicably arranged. The
Agent and Consul-General of the King of SARDINIA
at Tangiers has been chosen to interpose his good
offices. The steps already taken by this diplomatist,
who has acquired general confidence and esteem, lead
to the hope that he will, in a short time, obtain a fa-
vourable result."

The Bourse opened dull, under the impression pro-
duced by the decrees published in th© Moniteur relative
to the property of the family of the house of Orleans.
Business, however, became more animated towards the
close and Government Securies closed at an advance on
yesterday's prices. The Five per Cents, opened at
101 f. and rose to 1031, at which they closed; the Three
per Cents. closed at 66c. 25c.; Orleans Railroad Shares,
