The Moniteur publishes a circular letter, addressed by
M. Martin (du Nord) to several commercial Chambers,
having for its object to call the attention of our merchants
to several markets in the Levant, of the existence of which
they appear not to be aware. The nations of the East are
beginning to have a taste for European habits ; they are
extremely partial to our clothes, furniture, and even our
fashions. " Here," states the circular, " Ages, who, but
a few months hence, ate with their fingers and sat on the
ground, now make use of tables, chairs, spoons and forks,
and furnish their apartments with desks, consoles, chests
of drawers, and lamps." In a short time the customs of
Europe will have been adopted in the East."—Courrier
Francais.

The Court mourning has become a serious affair, since
the Minister of Austria, with a more puerile than dange-
rous affectation, has presented himself to the Ministers and
at the Tuileries in a State mourning dress. This attitude
of diplomacy in tears before the Royalty of July had
greatly afflicted the friends of the Tuileries. M. Thiers
and Marshal Gerard expressed their indignation at such
conduct, but 'were unable to convince a high personage of
the necessity of taking satisfaction for so unbecoming a
proceeding. His Majesty receded ten steps when the ex-
President of the Council, with the patriotic accent of the
days of 1880, said to him, " Sire, if I had the honour of
being the Minister of your Majesty, and that the Ambas-
sador of a foreign Power came to my house in mourning
for Charles X., I would order the servant, in his hearing,
to say that I was not at home."—Le Siecle.

A scene of scandal lately occurred at Court. The
handsome Duchess of Valangay (Mademoiselle de Mont-
morency) made her appearance at the Tuileries dressed
in the deepest mourning. The astonishment was general,
and every one considered it an epigram of Prince de Tal-
leyrand, who must certainly have been consulted on the
subject by the Duchess, his niece.—Le Sleek.
For some time back the bands of the regiments bad
ceased to play the " Marseillaise," and even the much less
revolutionary air of the " Parisienne," while the troops were
filing before the King or the Princes. It was important to
substitute others in their stead. M. Bernard has accord-
ingly addressed a circular letter to ail the colonels of regi-
ments, inviting them to instruct the directors of the bands
to put immediately in rehearsal two marches, composed by
order, and which are only to be performed in the presence
of the King or the Royal family.—Le Siede.
The Portuguese Government has communicated to the
Spanish Ministry an energetic protest it has entered
against the conduct of the British. Cabinet in the late coun-
ter-revolutionary attempt in Lisbon. lt would appear from
this document that the Cabinet of Donna Maria has written
to London and Brussels to demand the recall of Lord
Howard de Walden and M. Van de Weyer, and that M. de
Moncorvo, the Portuguese envoy in London, has been or-
dered back to Lisbon. This last fact is confirmed by our
private correspondence from London.—Messager.
The Annoricain of Brest says—" The squadron of ob-
servation commanded by Admiral Hugon, is expected very
shortly at Brest. It appears that the Government had
sent orders that be should have one ship at Lisbon, and
cruise, with the rest, at the mouth of the Tagus. As such
a cruise is not without danger, at this season of the year,
Admiral Rosamel has since sent orders for all the ships to
return to Brest."

We learn by a letter from Toulon that 800 men of each
of the 12th and 18th Regiments of the Line, and the 15th
Light Infantry, are ordered for immediate embarkation for
Africa. The two first will be conveyed to Algiers from
Toulon in the Trident, .I)thigcnie,llerminie, and Egerie--
and the 15th are to take their departure from Port Vendres
for Bona in the Suffi•en,Durance, and Fortune.
The Journal de Paris addresses to the Ministry the fol-
lowing questions, which may be considered as the programme
of the different points on which the partisans of the Mini-
nistration of the 22d February, headed by M. Thiers, in-
tend to attack the Guizot-Mole Cabinet.

" We are invited to state facts and specify our griev-
ances ; here arc some. Is it not a fact, that since the adop-
tion of the negative policy of the Gth of September, Car-
lism has been triumphant in Spain, and is beginning to raise
its head in France? Is it not a fact, that the existence of
the quadruple alliance is seriously menaced ? Is it not a
fact, that the Arabs have assailed us in the very heart of
our African possessions ? Is it not a fact, likewise, that '
when the situation of our affairs looked most grave, when
our foreign policy was subverted, and when the accession of
the new Ministry to power left the constitutional support of
the Legislature quite uncertain, the convocation of the
Chambers was postponed until the very latest period fixed
by the Constitution ? Behold what we daily complain off."
Accounts from Lyons state that large orders for silks have
been received from America, and that the manufactories
are in a more satisfactory state.
Madame Beaune has been liberated from her confine-
ment, and the Royal Court of Amiens hus decided that
there are no grounds for prosecuting her, or any of the
other persons accused of having favoured the escape of the
prisoners from Doullens.
In the night of the 2:2d ult. six brigands in disguise, led
by a man of about 35 years of age, entered the Chateau de
Constance, a short distance from Coux, in the Dordogne,
and endeavoured to force money from M. Lamothe, the
proprietor, and his sister, an elderly lady, by threats and
violence. One of the servants, however, got out and called
aloud for assistance. This alarmed the robbers, and they
made off without any booty. The next day M. Lamothe
went to the Mayor of Coux, to lay an information before
him. While ho was at the Mayory a man came in to ob-
tain a passport, whom M. Lamothe immediately recog-
nized as the leader of the band that had assailed him and
his family on the preceding night. M. Lamothe denounced
him,.and he was taken into custody. He proved to be a
tailor of Coux, The rest of the gang have since been cap-
tured.
CoarsTANcE, Nov. 29.—Prince Louis Bonaparte has
addressed from Port Louis, under date the 17th inst., and
through the medium of the Government, a second letter
to his mother, Queen Hortense, in which be announces to
her that he was to be taken to New York ; that he would
proceed thence to visit the different states of the Union ;
and that when he had acquired a sufficient knowledge of
the country, he would fix on a residence. His intention, he
says, is to become a farmer ; he will ask his uncle Joseph
to sell him a few acres of land, and if he finds that his
mother may then, without danger to her health, come and
share his solitude, he will be the first to invite her to under-
take the journey. He begs her to send him his fowling
pieces (l) and books, and adds, that he was informed the
6,000 f. he had on arriving in Strasburg and his other effects
would be returned to him,
