FRANCE.

The Moniteur contains the following report to
the Emperor from Marshal Vaillant :

"Paris, Sept. 14.
"Sire—The provisions which your Majesty had
adopted for the recruitment of the army have been com-
pletely realised, and the effective number of our land
firces appears likely to suffice for all the necessities of
the present situation. Nevertheless it would be prudent
at present to make provision for the diminution which
that force will sustain by the liberation of the class of
1347. To that end, I have the honour of proposing to
your Majesty to call into activity the young soldiers of
1853, who still remain available in the reserve.

VAILLANT,
"Marshal of France, Minister of War.

An Imperial decree convokes the colleges of the
Ist circumscription of the Morbihan for the Bth
October, to elect a deputy iu the room of M. Jol-
livet de Castelot, deceased.

An extraordinary service of couriers has just
been organised for the transmission from Marseilles
to the Emperor, wherever he may be, of the de-
spatches which arrive from the army of the East.
Three couriers have arrived at Marseilles from the
Post-office, to be ready for that purpose. Relays
of horses are kept in !constant readiness between
Valence and Lyons, and on the railway from the
latter place special trains are ordered to be ready
at a moment's notice to convey the couriers to the
point required.
There are several leading articles in the Paris
journals of this day, but they are, with one or two
exceptions, destitute of interest or novelty. The

-----
L'ebats contains the following on the refusal of the
I4Peror of Russia to accede to the p-opositions,
which were submitted to him by Austria :
e 1 The Austrian Government, as is well known, has de-
ar
ed that the negative reply of Russia did not in its
Pinion constitute an immediate casus belli. That reply
gPP,,ears, in fact, to have been couched in the most polite
11, conciliatory. terms towards Austria. Russia de-
res that it is out of consideration for Austria that she
ham decided on evacuating the Principalities, but that
tile the Austrian Government makes its own resolutions
loPeud en those of France and England, there is no
the means of negotiating freely with it. Accord-
to letters from Vienna the Austrian Cabinet has de-
ecii't'red itself satisfied for the time, because the four con-
ditions offered to Russia are in reality already accom-
ev '"ed- In the first place the Principalities have been
aeuateda
;in te d eby that very fact thth e Danube
r4beeeme feel; thirdlysecon ~
by the state of war e treaties
gigannulled ; and in the fourth and last place, the reli-
-I,:rea protectorate of Russia is also suppressed by the
en,, • Austria does not, therefore, consider herself as
dit'pelled to enter on hostilities, in order to impose con-
°'l3 Which have been already executed."
