FRANCE,

RECALL OF ADMIRAL JURIEN DE LA
GRAVIERE.
PARIS, APRIL 7.

Admiral Jurien de la Graviere has been recalled
from Mexico. The reason officially assigned for his
recall is that the importance of the French naval
forces in the Mexican waters is no longer such as
to warrant the presence of an officer of that rank.
Speaking of the mnoh•lamented death of M.
Eggot Algiers, Le Siecle of to-day notifies the fact
that it was the deceased academician who origi-
nated the great Art Exhibition at Manchester.

We learn from Le Constitutionnel of this morn-
ing that in the afternoon of to-day the Emperor was
to pass a review at Longchamps, the regiments of
cavalry now set apart immediately to quit the gar-
risons of Paris and Versailles. It takes one back at
a bound over 15 years,to read the very able review of
the fourth and fifth volume of M. Gamier Page's
" History of the Revolution of 1848" contained in
the last number of L'Optnion Yationale just come
to hand.

La France of this evening asserts that, according
to news received from Mexico, General Bazaine had
occupied Chollula on the 3d ult., in order to inter-
cept the retreat of the Mexican army from Pueblo.
The siege of Puebla was to commence upon the
16th alt.
The Patne says :—" It is reported that the gene-
ral election to the Corps Legislatiff will take place
in the first fortnight in Jnne."
The organisation of the camp of Chalons, under
the command of Marshal Baraguay d'Hilliers, has
tehnee rasltadffe
staff; Generals
aunildrßicohn, asmaly,
bareeenatcotmhephleetaedd.ofG
and Jannin are the commanders of the infantry
divisions, and General de Forton of the cavalry.
A young man named Colbeau, aged 23, residing
with his mother at Eaux-Ouies (Oise), was mur-
dered three evenings back by being shot while an d-
in gat the door of the house. He was of a mild dis-
position, and not likely to have given any cause for
enmity. His father was dead, and his mother mar-
ried a second time but separated from her husband.
A man has been arrested on suspicion.
The Alchbar of Algiers publishes a letter from
Batna, written by M. Bumbonnel, the lion-hunter.
He says :—" In the night of the 24th ult. the moon
was obscured by clouds. I had concealed myself in
a small copse close to the haunts of the lions, that

peat being assigned me by my friend Chassaing,
who had himself taken another position. About
seven in the evening 1. began to hear the roar of a
lion, and soon after an enormous animal sprang at
my horse, which was standing about eight or ten paces
from me. I took good aim, and the ball which was
steel-pointed, knocked the lion over. I was reloading
when the animal rose and made slowly towards
me, roaring frightfully. I laid aside my gun,
and, taking a large horse pistol, was about to dis-
charge it at his head, when another large lion ap-
peared not far off. As this second one was fresh
and unwounded, I considered it more dangerous
than the other, and again taking up the gun, I
finished loading, and then fired at the new corner
and killed it on the spot. At the report, the first
lion rose and disappeared in the wood. All the rest
of the night passed off quietly. Chassaing, who had
1 heard the reports, came to me at day-break, and we
went together in search of the first lion, which we
tracked by his footmarks and his blood during the
whole day, but without being able at last to dis-
cover his haunt. What a pity ! after having watched
for 13 nights."
