FRANCE.

M. Garnin Pages, whose health is in a precarious
state, has left Paris for ltiarseilles.

The deposits lodged in the Paris savings' banks on
Sunday and Monday last amounted to 60,781 f.; the
gums withdrawn during the same days amounted to
19,317 f.

General Changarnier has published the following
note in La Presse:—" A great number of officers
who are at present either on leave of absence or un-
employed in Paris have come spontaneeusly to offer
their services to the General commanding the Na-
tional Guards of the Seine, the Garde 11obile, and
the troops of the First Military Division. He thanks
them for that proof of their devotedness to the cause
of order."

It having been rumoured that a new journal called
the Napoleon Colonisateur was published under the
auspices of M. Pierre Napoleon Bonaparte, and that
it was also under his auspices that an electoral asso-
ciation had been formed, in which he intended to
speak for the first time, M. Pierre Napoleon Bona-
parte his published a declaration that these assertions
are altogether untrue, and that he has merely signi-
fied to M. Hamel, the editor of the journal in ques-
tisn, that he would become a subscriber to it, and that
his concurrence, as a representative of the people,
might be relied upon in any proposition which might
tend to the extinction of pauperism, according to the
ideas which long ago emanated from his cousin the
President of the Republic.
Further accounts of the excitement in Paris, on
Monday, are
.contained in the French newspapers.
The following extract will afford some notion of the
enthusiasm in favour of the Prince President :

" The affluence of persons who flockedtowards the
Chamber was immense; every street in the neighbour-
hood was thronged. On the 'Place de la Concorde it was
not easy to pass, so great was the crowd. The Tuileries
gardens were closed to the public, and occupied by
troops. Large bodies of troops wore also posted on the
Place de la Concorde near the bridge. Just as I was
going to the Chamber,' says our reporter, 'about half-past
one, an immense rush of the crowd, almost exclusively
consisting of men in blouses, took place towards the
Champs Elys6es. I waited to ascertain what could be
the cause of the movement, and found that it was the
President of the Republic, who was proceeding on horse-
back across the Place de la Concorde to the Boulevards.
Ho was dressed in the uniform of a colonel of the
National Guard, wearing the broad red ribbon of the
Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour. Two aides-de-
camp accompanied him, as did two or three orderlies,
and about fifteen lancers. He was received with the
utmost enthusiasm by the crowd as he passed along,and
the loudest cries of Vice la Republique ! arose, mingled
ith a few shouts of A bas le ilinistere! Thousands of
persons accompanied him, and it was with grest diffi-
culty I could get at last out of the crowd. The thick
mass of persons went along towards the Boulevards, and
I returned towards the Chamber. Round it the military
force consisted of cavalry, infantry, and artillery--
nothing, in fact, was seen like it since the
days of June. The circulation of the public
was not, however, impeded, though later in ttbe
day no person whatever was allowed to pass."
The President of the Republic will give a grand
ball on Friday next, which will be followed by one
every fortnight. As the smallness of the hotel only
permits 600 persons to be received, there will be
vat ions series of invitations.

We read in the Union :—" The Archbishop of
Paris has received from the Pope another letter ex-
pressing the deepest gratitude for all the tokens of
sympathy received by the illustrious object of perse-
cution from him, from the episcopacy, and from the
people of France. Pius IX. again declares his wish
to come into France as soon as circumstances, will
allow him, and to thank in person this noble nation,
and console himself by beholding its piety, its devo-
tion, and love fur the Holy See, for the ingratitude
which has steeped his soul in bitterness.' He desires
that they will continue to pray for the safety of his
person, and of the Church committed to his charge,
and renews his apostolic benediction upon the clergy
and upon all the faithful."
Several National Guards, yesterday morning, ar-
rested a man named Lecointe, who stated himself to
be a retired merchant living in the Rue Richelieu.
He boasted of being acquainted with persons,
according to his own expression, " would bring down
the President of the Republic." He was taken before
the Commissary of Police, and underwent an imme-
diate examination.

It was M. de Lamartine who, from the tribune,
demanded the division on the proposition of M.
Rateau, after a brief speech, but a speech terse, bold,
and eloquent.
