We have received the Paris papers of Saturday
and of yesterday.
The Moniteur publishes the following official dis-
patches :
" By a telegraphic dispatch, dated Marseilles, July 7,
half-past three A.m.,
. the General commanding the
seventh military divisloninforms the Minister of War
that one of General Oudinot's aides-de-camp arrived
there on the previous evening. He was to leave for
Paris to-day. He announces that the army entered
Rome on the 3d, in the middle of the day."
The same journal publishes the following tele-
graphic dispatch :
"The General commanding the 7th Military Division
to the Minister of War:—
"July 7, 1849, Ten o'Clock A.m.
" General Oudinot's aide-decamp informs me that
Garibaldi, with 5,000 or 6,000 men, left Rome on the
3d, going, it was believed, in the direction of Terracina.
The first, division of the expeditionary corps lett on the
4th in pursuit of him."
The same journal publishes a decree of the PRESI
DENT of the Republic, appointing M. DROUYN Da
LHUYS Ambassador Extraordinary with a temporary
mission to the QUEEN of the United Kingdom of
Great Britain and Ireland.
General BEDEAU has left Marseilles on his return
for Paris.

The Bill introduced by M. DE MONTALEMBERT,
authorising General CHANGARNIER to hold the double
military command of the Ist military division and of
the National Guards of Paris, passed the Assembly
on Saturday by 332 to 148.
The Assembly authorised the prosecution of MM.
DUGKASSE and PFLEGER, but refused to authorise the
prosecution of M. GAMBON.
The elections commenced yesterday. There was
scarcely any excitement in Paris.
The electors of Lure et Loire have started M. DE
LANIARTINE as a candidate. It is possible that he
will be returned fur more than one department.

The Siecle says—" It is effirmeil to us that a
decree of the PRESIDENT of the Republic, dated
yesterday, pronounces the dissolution of the 7tb
Legion of the national Guards of Paris, but the
decree will not be pub.ished in the Moniteur until
the day after the election."
The Constitutionnel says :—" We were a few d
since auttiurisi-d to declare as apocryphal a letter ail.
dressed trom France to General OUDINuT, and
had been interceptt d at Boole and published offi..:ially
as emanating from General RUI.IIIEItE, the Minister
of War. The lollowing is the explanation of the fact :
An honourable General had written t the Comman-
der-in-Chief of our army in Italy a letter which the
Postmaster of Toulon by mistake sent by lan't, and
put into the packet of commercial letters. On reuh-
ing Rome the letter was seized, and either in the
hurry of the moment, or perhaps by some fault in the
writing, was attributed to M. RULHIERE. A fac
ainzile of the letter was soon circulated in Rome and
in the French camp,' and at first caused a certain de-
gree of sensation. But an Aide.de•Catnp of the Ali
nister of War, who formed part of the staff of
General OUDINOT, soon discovered the error and was
' able to place the responsibility o' it on the right
person, that is to say, on General BARAGUAY D'HIL-
LIERS, who has since fully accepted it."
This explanation clearly compromises the PRESI-
. .

DENT of tie Republic. It is now admitted that such
a letter was addressed to General OUDINOT. The
contents of the letter, the wording of it, all give
to this letter an official character, yet it seems that it
was written by General BARAGUAY D'HILLIER•i, who
is not a member of the Cabinet, who has no official
character, to a general] in command in the field,
giving him directions as to his actions, and urging
him to disavow the civil officers sent out by
the responsible authorities of the Republic to co-
operate with him ; and this letter, written by a
person who is not a Minister, urging a
general in command to adopt a line of
conduct calculated seriously to embarrass• certain
members of the Ministry, is sealed with the private seal
of the President of the Republic: perhaps M. BARA-
GUAY D'HILLIERS will condescend to explain how he
became possessed of the seal of M. LOUIS NAPOLEON
BONAPARIE.

The general meeting of the shareholders of the
Dieppe Railwiy took piece last week at Paris, Count
D'ALTON SLIEE in the chair. It appears from the re-
port that the receipts for the first eight months of the
working line amounted to 341,133 f. 95c., and the ex-_

penditrire to 286,503 f. 60c., leaving a balance of
44,630 f. 35c. Some discussion arose on the question
of a treaty with the Havre line for a mixed working
as far as the traction is concerned, and eventually the
assembly, by a large majority, authorised the board
to consent to the treaty proposed. It was after wards
decided that the number of directors should be re-
duced from nine to five, according as extinctions
took place. The meeting then separated.
The following is the intelligence relating to Rome
contained in these papers.
A letter from Cannes states that the Commandant
of the fort of the Ile Sainte Maguerite has received
orders to prepare for the reception of 600 prisoners
made by the French army at Rome.
The steamer Caton, which arrived at Marseilles on
Tuesday, took on board a quantity of arms for the
Italian expedition.
Tee Semaphore of Marseilles of Wesinesday
says :
" The steam-frigate 'the Infernal, which arrived at
T.,ulon in the night of the 21, brin,ts intelligence oi
the occupstion of Rome by the Fieceb army arer
a terrible combat, which did not list h•ds than

five hours. All the letters from Civita Vecchia and

tram the camp, of the Ist, agree in giving
this important piece of news. as certain. Our
correspindent of roulim states that, after taking
possession of the bastion No. 8, the well-sus
tained tire of our artillery silenced that of the Romans
on all poioti. In this las affair we na,tde 200 prisoners,
and kitten 400 men. Our correspond..nt terminates
letter by saying ' Rome has made its submiasion to the
French Government.' At the departure of the Infernal
from Civita Vecchia hostilities were suspended, and the
Roman manic pithy proceeded to the camp to treat of
the capi•ulation of Rome.' A letter from Civita Vec-
chia, dated 10 o'clock, the Ist, says—' The projected
attack on a bastion of Mount Gianicolo took place the
30th ult. in the morning. There were five hours' fighting
with the greatest success on our part. Our soldiers
displayed their usual ardour. We have killed more than
400 of the Romans, taken seven cannons, and carried a
°position which greatly disturbed the occupation of the
breach."
A letter from Toulon of the 31, in the Debats,
pays—
" The steam-frigate the Infernal, which has just an-
chored in the roadated with the wounded and the dis-
patches of General Oudinot for the Government, brings
news of great interest. This steamer left Civita Vecchia
in the morning of yesterday. The information had just
reached that town by extraordinary courier, that our
troops, after possessing themselves of the principal posi-
tions which dominate the part of the city of Rome which
is situated on the left bank of the Tiber, and called the
Transtevere, entered the streets, where a terrible com•
bat took place. They took several pieces of cannon and
made numerous prisoners, but there were a good many
victims on both sides. The Roman National Assembly
had demanded a suspension of arms. The struggle,
however, continued, it was said, on the departure of the
courier, who placed on board the Internal the dispatches
of the General; but discouragement was already in the
ranks of a portion of the defenders of the town, and
very probably all was about to terminate. Two steam-
