EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

PARIS, MONDAY.

r:- A- sudden, and unexpected change took place on the
sth instant in the Belgian Cabinet. M. de Mulinear,
Minister of Foreign Affairs, has resigned, though he
retains his seat in the Council of Ministers. He is
superseded by Count de Briay, the Finance Minister,
who is himself re-placed by M. Smitz, the Director of
the Belgian Bank. Reports say that Count de Mulinear
was opposed to the projected_ Customs union between
France and 'Belgium.
The Moniteur of Monday announces the sailing of the
Inflexible and Santi Petri ships-of-the-line of the Bth
from Toulouse, under the command of Rear-Admiral
Lasusse. " This officer," says the Moniteur, " has been
instructed to re-establish in the seas of the Levant a
naval station charged to watch over the protection of
French commerce. He will unite under his orders the
different ships of war employed in those seas."
The accounts from Toulouse, published by the Govern-
ment, were still satisfactory, but the opposition to the
fiscal measures of M. Humann was hourly gaining
strength. The Municipal authorities of Bordeaux,
Troyes' and Douay had protested against them.
The National Guard of Condom had forwarded a con-
gratulatory address to their comrades of Toulouse ;
another was preparing in Paris.
According to the Frankfort Journal of the 3d, his
Royal Highness the Due de Bordeaux was said to have
had his arm broken by a fall from his horse near Kirch-
berg.

Madame Laffarge has been found guilty.
Although it rained rather heavily in Paris on Mon-
day, the fears for the harvest were fast subsiding.
According to a return published in the Moniteur of
Monday, 38,000 people of colour were emancipated in
the French colonies since 1830.

Le Temps, referring to what it mentioned yesterday
about an intended revolution in Spain, says that the
movement is to break out on the 15th, and the army,
headed by Don Diego Leon, to share in it.
During some days rumours had prevailed that a gene-
ral insurrection against the fortifications of Paris was
about to take place. We are enabled, however, to dis-
credit the report.
It was reported on the Paris Bourse that intelli-
gence of the Sultan's death had been received by Go-
vernment.

PARIS BOURSE.—Five per Cents., 116 f. 80c. ; Three
per Cents., 77f. 80c; Spanish, 201.
The proceedings in the Cortes are totally devoid of
interest.

M. Arguelles, the new guardian of Queen Isabel 11.,
had appointed the widow of General Mina Guardian to
his Royal Ward, in the place of the Marchioness of
Santa Cruz, and M. Busto, Bishop elect of Tortosa,
Confessor to her Majesty, in the room of the Patriarch
of the Indies.
A letter from Madrid informs us that the elevation of
Madame Mina to the post of Governess to the young
Queen has done more harm to the ruling party than fifty
protests of Queen Christina could do. Espartero is un-
easy at the aspect of things. All parties are disap-
pointed in their expectations of him, and a large portion
of the army is not friendly.
The Correo Nacional mentions that Ministers intended
to demand extraordinary powers from the Cortes. The
Madrid Gazette contains a circular addressed by the
Minister of War to the Captains-General of the pro-
vinces, recommending them to caution the troops under
their orders against the calumnies propagated by the
enemies of the Constitution for the purpose of creating
disunion between the army and the citizens.
El Corresponsal quotes a letter from Mahon, an-
nouncing that the numerous ships of war cruising off
the Balearic Islands occasioned some uneasiness. The
French were extending the buildings of their hospital
in the Island del Rey, the lease of which had been re-
newed. The Five per Cents. were done at 24 for cash,
and 24i 9-16 at 60 days.
The answer of the Spanish Regency to the protest of
Queen Christina has' been received at Paris, but not
made public.
A letter from Constantinople, of the 21st ult., states,
that although some cases of plague had manifested
themselves among the suite of Said Bey, he and
all the Egyptians attached to his household had,
nevertheless, received free pratique, and were lodged
in the Seraglio. Said Bey had not yet been admitted
to an audience of the Sultan : but preparations were
making for that purpose on a most magnificent scale.
The real object of his mission was still unknown. Some
believed he has been sent to negotiate a diminution of
the amount of tribute to be paid by the Viceroy, whilst
others positively asserted that he was instructed to form
a close union between all the influential Osmanlis against
the Christians. M. Titoff, the Russian Ambassador, was
said to be on bad terms with-the Divan.
Accounts from Candia state that Tahir Pasha had
been wounded in a late engagement with the insurgents.
