ticipated a much louder hubbub with respect to
this matter. The Presse, a Ministerial Journal,
congratulates the Minister of Finance for hav-
ing delayed the loan so long, instead of bringing
it out when he was urged to do so, and the funds
were much lower than they are now, and states
that if he had waited still'longer, viz., until the
army should- have been r6dticed, and a greater
approach have beeu.xnade to the equilibriurn of
receipts and expenditureihewould have ob'ssincd
a still better tlargairr: The Courrier Francais
seems -to consider the price obtained' by. M.
HtnfAbtx,.although:rauch under the quotation of
the day, as a fair one in the present state of the
political hemispheres and as indicative of the sa-
tisfactory condition of public credit in France at
• a moment, says oar Contemporary, when an at-
tempt at a loan in England has experienced a
signal failure. The Courrier libpes that no••ett
teinpt will be -made, now that the loan is taken, to
drive the Three per Cents up to a price beyond
what they are likely to sustain; and reminds the
public, by way of caution against wild 'Speculation,
of the causes which may, if the price: be foreed
up, produce a calamitous reaction. It alludes
particularly to the di._:pute-' bet Ween England
and the United States, and: say,that it a war
should break out between tho:::.e tweeountries, the
English fun& would probe)/ '4"or 5, per
cent., and produce a fhil in this etiiintre?. The

Of miscetaneotis news there is but little in
Tuesday's Pepers. The following extracts from
them include all they contain of any general in-
terest:
The Leipsic Gazette has a letter from Paris of the
15th, in which Is the following passage:—"The greatest
misfortune of Spain is that there are three women inte-
rested in the gaestion of the rights of Isabella 11. to the
throne and her marriage, viz. the wife of Don Carlos, the
wife of the Infant Don Francisco de Paula, and Queen
Christina. Of these three the only one,who would
be content for her son with- the title of husband of the
Queen is the wife of Don Francisco. Such a marriage
would put an etxl to foreign inflnence, Carlism, Republic-
anism, and the pretensions of Queen Christina."
We quote the following from the Temps :—" At
half-past ten o'clock • yesterday morning, the Duke of
Orleans was at the Pavillion Marsan, where .he had a
long conference with the engineer officers employed on
the fortifications. At half-past eleven all the Ministers
went to St. Cloud, where a Council was to be held by
the King at one. Immediately after the contract for the
loan was made, M. Hamann joined them."
The Courrier Francais says :—" The Ministers are
preparing a 13ill which is, it is said, to be not a revision
but the completion of the laws of September. The Ca-
binet of October 29th will, it is reported, apply to have
the faculty of 'prosecution, which now affects only the
responsible editors of the journals, extended to the
authors of the articles which may be the ground of pro-
secution. It is added that by the prepared Bill the
seizure of a journal would at the same tine authorise the
arrest of the responsible editor."
The Gazette de France says it is reported that the
King has been unwell for some days past, and that he
was bled on Sunday last.
It appears, 'Prom an article in st Brussels paper, that
the absurdly culpable amusement of lamp- breaking,
knocker-stealing, &c., which has recently formed part of
the education of the London lions, has found its way to
the Belgian capital. ,Four gentlemen, one of whom is
described as 11. C., an Englishman, were detected a few
nights ago by the police, indulging in this fashionable re-
creation, and adding to it the daubing over of shop signs
and publie monuments. Being armed with sticks they
resisted the police, and only one, the Englishman, could
be arrested. He has refused to give the names of his
-companions. It is added that some of the finest statues
in the Park have been defaced by these persons, or by
some of their imitators,
The Courrier-de Lyon states that the cashier of a com-
mercial house in that city has just absconded, leaving a
deficit of 130,000 f. He has abandoned his wife and two
children. .
While the 3d regiment of the line was marching to
Havre on Friday last, -to do ga:rison duty, it was met
between La Botte and Bolbec-by the Tours mail. The
horses being frightened by the beating of the drums,
rushed into the middle of one of the companies, and
threw down and ran over six men. One of them had
his shoulder broke, another a leg fractured and his head
severely injured, and a third his thigh lacerated ; the
others were much bruised. ;
A few days ago as three gentlemen of Pau, on horse-
back, were returning from an excursion at Cauterets, on
the. Spauieh frontier, they perceived three Spaniards
suddenly emerge from the road-side, leaving behind
them a rather voluminous bundle. After calling in vain
to the Spaniards to return' and take their bundle, the
travellers dismounted and-examined it. It was found to
contain various artipelreaeyeorf,

bodies entirely naked, one, that of a man of about 36
years of age ; the other, that of a female, apparently
many years younger, and enceinte. They had both been
murdered,, and hare numerous wounds inflicted by a po-
niard. Nothing has yet transpired to throw any light
Upon this atrocious and mysterious marder.
Rue BAGS LOST.—The Postmaster-General has pub-
lished a notice that the letter-bags sent from Paris by
the. Cherbourg mail on Friday night for Bonnieres,
Gaillon, Lou viers, and Vernon, were lost between Paris
and St. Germain-en-Laye, and, notwithstanding the
Most minute searches., have not been found. He, there-
fore, recommends ail persons who may have made re-
mittances by notes, bill; or other paper at short dates,
to the places above mentioned, by the post on Friday,
to stop the payment of them.
The Ami de la Chdrte of Clermont states that a sen-
tinel on duty at'Aubiere had been fired at a few nights

"At six o'clock on Friday evening." says the Siesie
"a lady entered one of the omnibusses, called the Dames
Francaises, at the Bpi Tiere de Greneile, but soon became
so much indisposed that she was necessarily left at the
station-house in the Rue de la Fidelite, whence she was
carried to a maison de sante, and died on Saturday. As
she was quite alone, and had no papers about her to
identify liar, the body was taken to the Morgue. She
was small and . thin, about twenty-four years of age ;
spoke with an English accent, wore a Leghorn bonnet,
trimmed with ribbons, and a silk dress. Several rings
were on her fingers, a large cheveliere, and a gold chain
turned several times round her arm. In her pocket were
9f. 95 cents., and a small master-key.
The Augsburg Gazette, under the date of frontiers of
Russia, 7th instant, says—" Letters from the shores of
the Baltic inform us that disturbances have broken out
in Livonia, but were repressed by the authorities. A
great number of the Livoniane had formed the project
of making a forced emigration to the interior of Russia,
but were prevented by the authorities from carrying it
into execution." Upon this the editor of the Gazette
observes, that the motives attributed to the insurgents in
the above article are very improbable, and consequently
more precise information should be waited- for.
