EXPRESS FROM PARIS.

(From a Correspondent of the Morning Post.)
PARIS, MONDAY.
TELEGRAPHIC DESPATCHES.
GENERAL CORBIN TO THE MINISTER OF WAR.

" ALGIERS, JUNE 24.
" Two convoys of provisions, destined for the expedi-
tion, art ived on•the 20th and 22d at Bleciah. The sick
and wounded were evacuated on Algiers, without having
been disturbci by the enemy. The state of the plains
and of the Sahel is satisfactory.

" TOULON, JUNE 23.
" THE MARITIME PREFECT TO THE MINISTER OF MARINE

" Two convoys entered Bledah on the 21st and
22d. General Corbin returned to Algiers on the 24th,
bringing back our sick and wounded, without having
met a single Arab. Algiers, the Sahel, and the plains
are tranquil. The telegnphic trcnsmissions which
had been said to be stopped at different points conti-
nue to work. Marshal Vallee was expected the 27th at
Bledah and on the 30th at Algiers. Some Arab de-
serters s►y that their countrymen are dying with hanger,
that the army of Abdel Kader arc obliged te, separate to
seek for fool, and that the Emir's funds to pay his regular
troops begin to fail. All is quiet on the side of Oran.
Mules, horses, and cattle, abound in the market of Mos-
taganem."
Our Paris correspondent writes on Monday night that
the above despatches have produced a great sensation, as
no mention, is made of Marshal Vall6e'a operations since
the 15th.
Monday's papers are filled with disastrous details and
Mournful forebodings as to the war in Africa. The French
Government is keeping back bad news.
Madrid papers of the 21st are unimportant; those of the
22d did not reach Paris on Monday.

THE CASE OF MR. CLEAVE.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR—Concurring in the sentiments expressed by your
Islington correspondent, and regretting the apathy exist-
ing in the trade I beg to suggest that an immediate sub-
scription be raised towards defraying the expenses of the
above individual, and beg to enclose my humble mite, trust-
ng it will be followed by the more wealthy of the trade.
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
W. H.

Somers Town.

[We perfectly agree with Mr. W. H., and have for.
warded his donation to Mr. Cleave, to whose address sub.
scriptions ought to be sent direct.—ED. Sun.l

sent up agents to obtain a supply of money, fearing they
might have a run on them, in consequence of the affair of
the Commercial Bank at Manchester.

Tee settling of the Foreign Account is going off well to
the present hour. An eminent bioker made a purchase in
the early part of the day of 50,000 Spanish, which had the
effect to improve the Market to 24 since which they
have receded to 26a I for the Account. The continuation,
carrying over the Stock to the next Account is about l per
cent. Money may be quoted rather more easy, as there
has not been any demand of consequence for it in the
House.

Consols have improved since the morning, when they
were Olii to 914 for the Account, at present 91i.

The Sussex Advertiser states that Mr. Bien-
cows, a Refatfier, is likely to stand successfully for the repre-
sentation of Lewes. Mr. Gibson, it is thought by the Leeds
Mercury, will be invited to stand for Manchester on the Liberal
interest at the next election in the room of Mr. Greg.
The Eail of Durham has, according to letters
received from the Isle of Wight yesterday morning, already de-
rived much benefit from the change of air. The Countess of
Durham, with Viscount Lambton and the Ladies Mary and
Emily Lambton, are all in good health. Sir John Douratt
continues in attendance on the Noble Earl.
in that
there report being circulation that
there would not be another set of Almack's, we have authority
to give our most unqualified contradiction to it, the Ladies Pa-
tronesses being fully determined to make this the most brilliant
set of the season, and to attend themselves upon each night of
the subscription.
A COURTIER OF THE SIXTEENTH CEN-
TURY.—Queen Elizabeth, .When in her sixtieth year, is thus
described by that finished courtier, Sir Walter Raleigh. He
pictures her " riding like Alexander, hunting like Diana, walk-
ing like Venus, the gentle wind blowing her hair about her
pure cheeks like a nymph—sometime sitting in the shade like
a goddess, sometime singing like an angell, sometime playing
like Orpheus." •
