THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of Saturday
and yesterday.
The Moniteur contains the Customs revenue returns
for July-10,988,418f., being an increase of about
500,000 f. over the corresponding month of last year,
but below the July of 1850 by upwards of 800,0001.
The same returns for
i the past seven months-
-79,991,382E, show an increase of near 15,000,000 f.
over the corresponding period of last year, an advance
which, however good, falls still far short of the ex-
pectations held out by the returns for the first quarter.
The Moniteur continues to publish the resolutions
of the arrondissement councils expressive of gratitude
for the services rendered by the PRINCE PRESIDENT
to the country. Few, however, go the length of
calling for the empire ; a good many resolve in fa-
vour of prolonged powerin the hands of the PRINCE
PRESIDENT.
The arrondissement councils of Bourg, Nantua,
and Gex, in the department of Ain, declare their
gratitude for the immense services rendered by the
PRINCE in having saved the country from anarchy.
Gap, in the Upper Alps, ardently desirep a visit
from the PRINCE, that it may salute the nephew of
the EMPEROR, the saviour of order. Vouziers (Ar-
dennes), desires to see the power with which he is
invested consolidated in his hands. Nogent-sur-
Seine (Aub), votes thanks for his courageous act of
the 2d December. rwo other arrondissements in the
same department, B ar-sur-Seine and Bar-sue-Aube,
declare their devotion to his person. Castelnaudary
(Rude) deprecates recourse to decennial elections,
and resolves in favour of stability of power. Limoux,
simply passes a vote of thanks
in the same department,
for the act of the 2d December, which has restored
order, security, and prosperity. Vire, in Calvados,
believes that Napoleon institutions must add more
and more to the tranquillity of France. Valaise, in
the same department, offers its profound and respect-
ful devotedness to his "august person." Aurellac
(Centel) offers its devoted aid for the consolidation
of the Government which has saved France from the
horrors of Socialism. Dijon applauds the suppres-
sion of the press and the tribune. Nyon (Drome),
prays him to continue to exercise the faculties with
which PROVIDENCE has endowed him for ensuring the
glory of France. Evreux (Eau) attributes the pub-
lic prosperity to the act of the 2d of December.
Chartres says the same. Quimper (Finisterre) votes
simply thanks. Auch (Gers) prays for the preser-
vation of the PRINCE. Lombez, same department,
declares the Government of Lams NAPOLEON to be
the only one that can assure order. Beziers (He-
rault) calls distinctly for the Empire. Lodes (Indre
et Loire).votes thanks. Saint Etienne (Loire) attri-
butes existing prosperity to the acts of Government.
Briancon (Upper Loire) declares its confidence in all
his acts. Luneville hopes that the nephew will be
able to show what the EMPEROR could have made of
France had it been given to him to be allowed to
reign in peace. Chateau Satins (Meurthe) expresses
the warmest gratitude and confidence. Saint Lo
(Manche) declares that he has saved the country
from threatened ruin, as the EMPEROR, had done before
him et the beginning of the century. Chalons prays
that the heir of the great NAPOLEON may become the
chief of a power deriving strength from its conti-
nuity. Corbeil (Seine et Oise) prays GOD to protect
the PRINCE who has saved France. Remueinont
(Vosges) offers thanks for the ineffable services which
have been rendered France, which had been menaced
with hideous anarchy.
Such is an analysis of the resolutions published in
the Moniteur.
A new vaudeville, entitled No. 27 en Faction, in
which the National Guard is turned into ridicule,
has, just been interdicted by the censorship.
The Sentinelle de Jura relates that at a dinner of
fifty covers, given on Sunday at the prefecture of
Lons le Saulnier, and at which General HERBILLON,
the Bishop of St. CLAUDE, and the principal func-
tionaries of the department were present, the Viscount
DE CRAMBRIIN proposed the following toast :—" I
rise to propose to you a toast, at the same time in
honour of the EMPEROR and KING NAPOLEON, NA-
POLEON I.; and of the PRINCE PRESIDENT NAPOLEON
11. Gentlemen, let us drink to the PRINCE and Em•
PEROR !"
