FRANCE.

The Emperor left Paris yesterday for Boulogne.
Yesterday evening his Majesty, accompanied by
his Imperial Highness Prince Jerome, visited the
French Opera. The Moniteur, in announcing the
visit to a theatre on the preceding evening bad
stated that his Majesty was accompanied by Prince
Napoleon. It now states that this was a typo-
graphical error. It was Prince Jerome who ac-
companied the Emperor.
The Moniteur publishes a decree promoting
Vice-Admiral Parseval-Deschenes to the dignity
of Grand Cross of the Order of the Legion. of
Honour.

THE VISIT OF THE EMPEROR TO
BOULOGNE.

BOULOGNE, Aug. 31.—The Emperor Napoleon
111. arrives here to-night. I have just returned
from the railway station—which, by-the-by, is
one of the most elegant and commodious in
Europe—and found all life and bustle there.
Tri-coloured flags were being erected all along the
grand entrance, and garlands and arches of ever-
greens were gradually assuming form and shape
under the expert hands of the Boulogne gardeners
and artistes de decoration. The Emperor has taken
the whole of the Hotel Brighton, which is sur-
rounded hya beautiful qarden in which elegant tents
have been pitched. The hotel is not situated, pro
perly speaking, at Boulogne, but at Capecitre, on the
ether side of the river, contiguoui to the railway
station. Opposite the hotel, on the other side of
the road, commodious stables have been erected for
the Einperor's stud. A temporary corps de garde
has been built at the entrance gate, and the Em-
peror's staff occupies the chateau to the south of
the. hotel. From the offices of the Etat-major the

A Jassy correspondent of the Ost Deutsche Post,
who speaks. of the " despondency" of the Russians,
tells a singular story of Baron von Budberg, the
representative of his Majesty of All the Russias.
The Civil and Military Governor having remarked
that one of the passers by in the trlica-maxa (High-,
street) did not bow respectfully to him, beckoned
to the irreverent Moldavian to come to the door of
his carriage. The man obeyed, and the polished
Russian, catching him by the beard, higged and
tugged him about in order to improve his manners.
Another Jassy writer remarks that from the recent
movements of the Russians it is evident that they
have more than once received contra lictory orders.
At last the Servians have left off drilling. and exer-
cising, and the warlike ferment in the Principali y
appears to be subsiding.

Yesterday afternoon a meeting was held of the

Amongst them were Brigadier Venancio Gurrea,

elected to the command of a battalion of foot

camp to Esnartero, and now employed in the
War-office ; and several other persons of mark,
known to be friends of the present Government.
Nevertheless, in the discussion that was held
the Government's acts were severely scanned,
not in a spirit of opposition, but with the desire to
see it take such measures as would keep off danger
and maintain it ill power.
The accounts from the provinces are satisfactory.
There had been some slight. disturrances at Utreria

AT PADDINGTON.

An inque-t was hell yesterday before Mr. Wakley.
,Niroio-r, at the Bark of England Tawero, Cambridge-
place. Pa diti4ton, on the boil; of the infant wh,, is
•illeged to have been tour eyed by the woman Sophia
Knight, as stated in our report of yesterday.
The mother of the deceased, E iza!ietn Groves, a
single woman, was examined, and stat-d that she lial
otae.,l the drill with Mrs. Kni,ht, who lived at IA
Pratl-stre •t. Paddington, to be nursed ; that she went
quently tAi, see it, and when she last saw the child
alive it Was looking pretty will.
This statement excited considerable surprise, as the
chid was in a inwt emaciated condition.
Mr. Lawrence. Omen], the house surgeon of St
Ho=pital, Paddington, was also examined, and
stated that the dee( an3d was brought to the hospital o -
Tuesday night by S,,phia Knight, who said it had fallen
wit of bed. The child was, in a miserably emaciated
state, and was bleeding front the mouth and nose. It had
a bruise on tile left side of the mouth. He had made a
post moPtera examination of the body, and had ricer
tamped that the death of the child had been occasioned
by the blows on the head, accelerated by neglect. There
were several old bruises on the head.
Several of the jury wished the accused to be present.
The Coroner recorded an application to Lord Pal.
merston.

The inquiry was adjourned till Tuesday for the purpose
alluded to.

ALLEGED CASE OF ABDUCTION.

A poor woman, named Ellis, residing at 13, New.
street, Shadwell, applied to Mr. Ingham, yesterday, at
the Twones Police.court, in a state of high excitement
to ask his advice as to the course she had best pursue
under the following circumstances :
She said that her daughter Janet, who agaisted her
in the laundry business, and afro is a young woman
of considerable personal attractions and some scho
lastic acquirements, had been partly lured and partl)
forced from her home and her friends by a man named
Funnell, a stonemason, lately employed at the mills
of Messrs. Kidd and Padget's, of New-street, S;)arl-
well. From the' little applicant had been able to
ascertain she found that a woman named Rainberg,
the wife of an engineer, had taken her daughter
into the company of Funnell, and notwithstand-
ing her usual temperate habits, they induced
her to drink what applicant was satisfied was
some drugged liquor. This occurred on Tuesday
week. After that they took her in a state of semi-stu-
pefaction to the Shoreditch railway, where Funnell
purchased two tickets, and put the young woman
into the train. The next applicant heard of them was,
that Funnel! was seen with a young woman hanging
on his arm, asking for work, at some mills about 20
miles distant from the metropolis. He then in-
quired respecting a man named Pa 'more, who wa•-
a native of the place, and who was weli acquainted
with applicant her daughter The persot,
who %v.'s asked the question said, " Parlmore is here,"
and itutnerliateny called him out. PAtnore, surprise.)
to see the girl with Funnell, said, 4' Bless me I what
makes you here I" To which she replied with the air
one not perfectly conscious, "I do not know." She
was very pale, and her eyes wandered wildly. Funnel'
said, " I did a bad job yesterday in bringing this gir,
away." Paltuore replied, "Give her a little money,
and i t her go home to her friends ;" tub which the other
41-I,,,yered, "No. I'll take her a stage or two further,
am' then throw her up."

Mr. Ingham— What did he mean by "throw her up V
Applicant- —I do not know, sir. ro got rid of her
-one way, I suppose. All I want to know is where slit.
or what has been dune; with her. She is too proud
to write to me ; she would sooner die.
Mr. lagnam —ls she in expectation .of any money ?
App ica,ot —As soon as my mother dies, I shall have
1,0614., the interest of which my mother now enj
nr. Ingham—Then I presume it was done nith a
view to that looney ?
Applicant—That cannot well he, sir. He is a mar-
ried man, with one child ; and his wife, who is the
:laughter of a resp,ctable farmer, is pregnant with at,-
other. He sent her out of the way bef we he did this.
Mr. Ingham —And what can I do for you ?
Applicant—Could you not grant me a warrant, sir ?
Mr. Ingham—l cannot well do that, unless the young
woman were under restraint ; and I cannot assume that
she is, as she has not communicated with you. Irot,
had better apply to some inspector of police.
The applicant then communicated the facts to Inspec-
tor Sullivan, at King David-lane, who directed Potter,
212 K, an active detective officer, to institute the neces-
sary inquiries.
