FRANCE.

PARIS, Nov. 7.

The ]lloniteur of this morning says the Govern-
ment does not intend to abolish the tax upon
horses and carriages.

Marshal Forey's farewell to the Mexicans and
the Freneh army has been published. It concludes
by saying, " If the chances of war should place you
you return to France
I shall be happy to find myself at the head of
again under my orders when
the valiant soldiers of Mexico."

The Constitutionnel publishes an article, signed
by M. Limagrac, saying he is convinced that
governments and nations have suffered too long
from a state of affairs no longer corresponding to
new wants and desires, to reject the idea of a
Congress. The result of this step will be argument
succeeding antagonism, true peace, and not that
factitious condition always within a hair's breadth
of war.

PARIS, Nov. 6.
The bulletin of this morning's Moniteur pub-
lishes an account of the opening of the French
Chambers, concluding as follows :—.

"The Emperor's speech was interrupted by the
most Tehement acclamations, and terminated amidst
repeated shouts of . Vive l'Empereur.' The speech
will not fail to re-echo loudly throughout France
and the whole of Europe."

The Senate and Corps Legislatif will meet to-day
to receive a communication from the Government
to the Corps Legislatif.

The Patric of this evening contains an article in
praise of the Emperor's speech, and ending thus—
" The dilemma of peace or war is stated. It is
a cry which modern Europe utters to the ancient
coalescing Courts—a cry which re-echoes at Berlin,
at Vienna, at Rome, and at Venice. It is a cry
which Poland accompanies with her sobs. It is a
warning giving by imperial France while boldly
hoisting the flag of liberty.
"Let us not attempt to predict the reply of the
Europe of 1815, Our part is to wait. Let us be
proud of finding in the language of the Emperor
the thought of a great people. We feel that the
future constantly belongs to sovereigns taithful to
their origin, and if our patriotism is able to exclaim
loudly, The treaties of 1815 have ceased to exist !'
our generosity is able to add—' Poland will soon
have ceased to suffer !'

In the Opinion Nationale of this evening, M
Gnerolt speaks in similar terms.

The I'resse publishes an article by M. de Girardin,
declaring that the imperial speech desires the peace
of the world, but affirms that many people consider
it as the announcement of war. The Pi essc never-
theless continues to consider the speech as of a
pacific tendency.

The Nord thinks the Emperor's speech the most
considerable and significant fact in favour of peace
which has transpired for a year.
In the Siecle, M. Havin believes there is a possi.
bility of war expressed in the speech, if the kings of
Europe do not give just satisfaction to their sub-

jects.

La France of this evening says :—" We are in a
position to announce that the declarations con-
tained in the imperial speech will immediately be
followed by diplomatic overtures. The Emperor
Napoleon will address a letter to the Sovereigns
who are friends and allies of France, to submit a
project of European arbitration for their approval.
An European congress may be considered as being
convoked. We shall know in a few days whether
the proposal is accepted or rejected. The Polish
dispute is nor: merged in the European question."
The official yellow book will not be distributed
among the senators and deputies until Monday.
In to-day's sitting of the Corps Legislatif M, de
Morny commented upon the address of the Emperor.
He said that nobody appreciated this admirable and
liberal speech more than himself, because he bad
been brought up to admire English society, where
individual and absolute liberty inspire the people
with a feeling of dignity and independence—where
liberty of associations develops personal initiative
--where the most extended political liberty is
moderated by religious respect for the law, and by
public sound judgment. England, however, has
taken years to realise these benefits.
Revolutions in France have never been turned to
the advantage of durable liberty, Freedom can only
be established peacefully by a good understanding
between a liberal Sovereign and an Assembly of
moderate views. He would endeavour to maintain
this good understandirig.
M. de Morny, in conclusion, said that he had seen
with satisfaction that popular suffrage had elected
farmer parliamentary celebrities. Their adhesion
was a homage rendered to the present form of go- ,
vernment. He esteemed them too much to doubt
the loyalty of their intentions.
A public sitting will take place to-morrow to
verify the elections of the members.

THE SUSPECTED MURDER AND ROBBERY IN
SHOREDITCIL—Yesterday morning Mr. Humphreys
resumed, for the fourth time, the inquiry, at the Princess
Royal Tavern, Paul-street, Shoreditch, relative to the
mysterious death of Edward Vial, aged 37 years, the Ger-
man sausage dealer who died from violence inflicted on him
on the night of the 21st of September, while on his way
home. No evidence, it appeared, could be obtained posi-
tively showing how the injuries were inflicted which led to
his death. The coroner, consequently, thought it was use-
less adjourning the inquiry again. It was clear that the
man had been attacked as he was on his way home, and
robbed of the meney that he had gained by his sales for the
evening. The jury accordingly returned a verdict of" Wil-
ful murder' against some person or persons unknown.
