THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday

From an article in the JoUrnal de; Debats we
gather that the representations made by the reac-
tionary party, as to the suspension of trade, and the
withdrawal of capital from commerce, have been
gro!sly exaggerated for the purpose of endeavouring
to damage the Republic with the uneducated, ig.
norant, and priest ridden peasantry, who in the pro-
vinces of France form the bulk of the con-

ofis n

relies for support. Having served its purpose during
the elections, end being capable now of being used
as an argument against the imposition of additional
taxation, the current lie of the day is thus unblush-
ingly withdrawn from circulation bv its original
coiners. Thus doth the Journal des Debats read its
recantation. It says :

" The suspension of labour in France is not so general
as has been stated, for in many great manufacturing dis-
tricts the men are pretty generally employed. This re-
mark more particularly applies to those who are em-
ployed in articles of export. Lyons is at present well
supplied with orders. Notwithstanding this fact the
prcduction of manufactured goods is not what it was in
1845 and 1846, or even what it was in that year of
scarcity, 1847. At the tame time the public treasury is
far from being in a prosperous condition. The taxes do
not produce a sum equal to cur expenses, and the deficit,
which was so much talked of two years s nce, is still like
a yawning gulf before us."

M. VirAßcouitT, the Ambassador to the Pope,
arrived in Paris yesterday.
The President of the BErunuc was received at
the Orleans Railroad station, where he arrived at half-
past nine o'clock on Sunday morning, by the Prefect
and authorities and by an immense multitude, who
manifested the greatest enthusiasm. Ile started after
half an hour's delay for Tours.
The police have made a domiciliary visit to the
residence of M. EUGENE SUE, having received infor-
mation that M. FELIX PYAT was concealed there, and
also that M. SUE had a depot of arms and ammuni-
tion in his house. The search was made, but neither
M. FELIX PYAT nor the depOt were found.
The troops which had been ordered to march from
Lyons towards the Sardinian frontier have been re-
called.

It was rumoured yesterday, in the National As-
sembly, that there was some " hitch" in the negotia-
tions with the POPE, and that the return of his
HOLINESS to Rome was likely to be delayed for an
indefinite period.

In the Legislative Assembly, yesterday, the debate
on the motion of M. CRETON, to suspend until Jan.
Ist, 1850, the operation of the law repealing the duty
on potable liquors, was adjourned until Bth August,
in consequence of an announcement, made by M.
PASSY, that it was his intention to present with the
budget a Bill re-establishing those duties in a different
form.

The accounts from Martinique and Guadaloupe
represent the conduct of the emancipated negroes as
that of demons rather than men • the unfortunate
whites are in daily expectation of a renewal of the
atrocities of St. Domingo. The merchants of Havre
have memorialized the PRESIDENT of the Republic to
provide efficient protection for the white inhabitants
of these colonies against the atrocities of the blacks,
and they strongly condemn the Constituent As-
sembly for bestowing the electoral franchise on a set
of uncivilized savages.
CABRERA arrived in Penis on Sunday.
BOURSE.--Ems, MONDAY, JULY 30.
THREE O'CLOCK.—Business was almost null to-day.
No political rumours whatever were afloat, and that cir-
cumstance, joined to the fact that many speculators were
making preparations for the settling of the account, will
explain the negative character of the day's proceedings.
It may ba remarked that the coming settlement will be
an unusually light one, as very little business has been
done for some weeks past. Exchange on London (30
days), 25 35; ditto (90 days), 25 25.
