Livxaroot, APRIL 20.—The-week's imports of grain and
flour are again moderate, and the trade has had a steady aspect,
prices generally being fully supported. The exports to Ireland
increase, and they amount this week to 4,700 quarters wheat,
4.973 barrels and 570 sacks of flour, and 6,084 quarters of
Indian torn. The, exports coastwise are less than of late, and
merely comprise 1,161' quarters wheat, 1,881 barrels and 379
sacks of flour, 716 quarters beasts, and small quantities of Bar-
ley, Indian corn, and oatmeal. Our Corn Exchange this
morning was scarcely so well attended as on Friday, but a fair
amount of business was transacted in wheat and flour, at an
advance in price of Id to 2d per bushel on the former, and 6d
to,ls per barrel,. and Is per sack, on flour, on last Tuesday's
rates. Indian eorn is scarce ; yellow improved in price, and
white receded. Good American yellow corn is the favourite
article, and commands 3.)s per 4801bs. Oats, barley, beans,
and peas were very little dealt in, and no alteration of value. „.;.,

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC,

We haye received the Paris journals of yesterdaY•
The Legislative' body_ met on Monday at two
o'clock, M. BILLAULT, the President, in the chair.
The whole day eves occupied with the discussion of
the Copper Qpinage : 8i11.., The proceedings com-
menced by some ;observations from M. MILLETT,
Deputy for tbeNaucluse; against the measure. The.
Hon. Gentleman admitted that the Bill must be con-
sidered a useful one, but he maintained that there Was
no particular necessity
for its being brought forward
at the present moment. The copper money now in
use had served perfectly well, he said, for the last fifty
:years, and certainly, if
necessary, could serve for
.fifty years more. • Why, 'then, now precipitate thenst,,

position toethe Government, w
but his conviction as
agaitha orgenoY of. the- Bill. He COlleinded-bY
declaring tbathe sshook]vote against it. M. GUTARD
DELALAIN, Deputy for Paris, replied to the observa
tions of the piece ding speaker;.insisting that not only
could the eacesaitY of the measure be proved, hut also
its urgency. The discuseion was then declared to be,

• Thefite of the 10th 'May excites public curiosity
in the highest degree. According to information ob-
tained from a source that cawbe relied on, never will
there have been a grander or, more imposing cere-
mony. All the corps of the army and navy will be
represented by deputations;- the regiments of the army
ofeltaly , like those of the army of Africa, without ex-
ception ; as also the -military schools and the regi-
ments created in Algeria--the Spahis, the Zouaves,
and the native Riflemen—who have already given

structed before the Ecole Militaire. In the centre
Will be that of the PRESIDENT; on the right and left
those of the great bodies of the State; and of the
ambassadors and Members of the corps diplomatique.
There will-be a stand' containing .more than fifteen
hundred places ' reserved-for foreigners of ditinc-
tion, who are expeCted from all parts of Europe.
Arenend 'the 'Champ'" de Mars stands will also ,
be erected for the accommodation of a vast num-
ber of spectators. . A.-religious service will give the
fete a character of grandeur and majesty. A solemn
mass will be celebrated on a monumental altar, raised
in the midst of the troops, and prayers will be offered
for the army, the PRINCE, and France. The PRINCE
will afterwards, from his tribune, give to the chief of
each corps the eagle of his regiment, as a souvenir
of glory, a symbol of discipline, and an oath of fide-
lity.
The magnificent ceremony will terminate by
the filing off of the troops. The day after the army
will OffiST a fête .to the PRINCE PRESIDENT. In the
day there will be military rejoicings in the Champs
de Mars, and they will be followed by an immense
display of fireworks,' got up by the artillery, on the
heights of Chaillot. Afterwards there will be a ball
at the Ecole Militaire.
The French Government has received from the
officer in command of the naval station of Brazil and
La Plata dispatches to the sth of March. At that
date Admiral LE P&EDOUR . had just placed on board
ship for :France the expeditionary troops, whose pre-
sence was no longer required in that part of *
world. The report of the Admiral speaks in 'histb
terms of the conduct of the 'marines and crewa•Updr
his command. Landed, at Buenos Ayers after the
battle WWl' _terminated the war, and at a moment
when the city was overrun by bands of armed men,
they contributed powerfully to maintain order and
protect property. It was to their firm attitude, the
report says, that the banit and custom-house stores
were pi eserved from pillage. '
A letter from Frankforestates that French agents
are now employed in visiting different parts of Ger-
many to collect information as to the soldiers who
served in the Imperial armies, the obj ct being to
present reward's to all-those who rendered services to
the Empire. Registers -for this purpose have been
opened at all the French embassies in Germany. At
Frankfort several persons_ are said to have presented
themselves. , . -
The Minister of the Interior has given orders to
have the plans for reclaiming the Bay of St. Michel
pursued actively. Toe works are to be executed by
convicts condeinned'io hard labour.

The conditions of t arrangement by which the
State has ceded to the City of Paris the property of
the Beis di Boulogne are (says the Assemblie Na-
tionale) the same as those- agreed to in 1828, when
the city of Peris obtained possession of the Place de
Louis XV. eand the Charepe Elyides; that is, to bear
the expense of superintendence and repairs; to lay out
in the course of five.years, in works of embellishment,
2,230,000 f, at least; 'and, lastly, to preserve to the
grounds veered their present destination. The Bois
de Boulogne ' give a yearly revenue of 31,486 f.,
and its keeplogetip costs 11,466 f., 80 that
there remains a nett revenue of 20019 f. Con-
sequently,the State, has but a slight interest to pre-
serve the propertf 9f this wood, whereas 'the City
of Paris ila, a strong One to purchase it, since it has
become a favourite promenade for the beau monde.
The embello-iments which are to be effected are 5
vast system of macadamisation for the principal
avenues ; lighting in all directions with gas'; basons
and fountains to be erected ; and large pieces of green
