entrance of the Prince into the service of the Egyptian
Government, The Prince consequently prepared to
depart, and with that view addressed the French Go-
vernment to obtain permission to pass through France,
in order to embark at Marseilles. But, contrary to all
expectation, the authorisation was refused. This mea-
sure appears the more inexplicable as the brother of
Prince Pierre, Prince Charles Bonaparte, is at present
in Paris ; and that in the discussion which lately Snook
place in the Chamber of Peers, relative to the petition
of Prince Jerome, ex-King of Westphalia, the French
Cabinet entered into a solemn engagement to apply with
indulgence the law which proscribes the Napoleon
family."

The active circulation was curtailed again by 250,0601.,
owing to the additional amount taken to the ct edit of the
banking department, but upon the payment of the divi-
dends, we should rather anticipate an extension of the
note circulation, because the quarterly settlements by
parties indebted to the revenue will then be nearly ar-
ranged.
The only ship arrival to-day with later accounts is
from New York to the 9th inst. The exchange was
somewhat flatter. Money was still very easy.
The English Funds have been very buoyant again
to-day, and there is a further rise of to .1 per cent.

per Cents. have been 901 4. Bank Stock is at 195 to
