Faubourg St. Antoine ; the street was barricaded,
and some shots, it is said, were exchanged between
the troops and the assembled workmen. Louts N 44.•
POL EON, it was reported, bad been removed to Vin-
cennes as a place of safety. The French Funds fell
considerably on Monday, and the capital was in a state
of considerable alarm at the date of the despatches.
With such vast elements of disorder in every Euro-
pean society—with the populace almost everywhere
in a condition which only requires a spark to set
them in a blaze, statesmen ought to be particu-
larly cautious how they stir up the strong passions
of the multitude.

Our intelligence from Syria is also important.
Admiral NA PI ER had begun active operations, and
is said to have taken a considerable number of the
2AcHA's vessels. Copious extracts will be found
elsewhere.

Our extracts from the Paris Journals of Mon-
lay, on the Eastern Question are exceedingly
,in-
teresting. It appears from the Constitutionnel,

hat Lord PALMERSTON has addressed a second
Inemorandum to_.the French Government, longer

than the first, in which the anxiety of Great Bri-
tain to maintain the most amicable relations with
France is strongly urged ; the policy of the Four
Powers proved to be in accordance with the policy
recommended by the Cabinets of Count MOLE
and Marshal SOUL T ; and a repetition of the en-
treaty of Lord PALM ERSTON, that France would
yet render Russian interference unnecessary by
charging herself with the honourable and dignified
office of mediator between the Viceroy of Egypt
and the Four Powers. This memorandum, instead
of soothing, has but inflamed the arrogance of the
French Minister. The cry of France being in-
sulted is still kept up ; and although we cannot
believe that one person in an hundred of the edu
cated classes in Franco supposes that England
could be so insane as wantonly to insult her powerful
ally, vet such is the cowardice of public opinion,
and such the subservience of the Press, that not a
single Journal has the hardihood to invoke the
national indignation against the promulgators of
such a mischievous calumny.

—Semaphore of Marseilles.
We find in a letter from Athens, written by a person
who is usually well-informed, the following news, which
appears to us to need some explanation :
" The news of the Brunow treaty, and the rumours
of war that are spread, have excited at Athens very
ardent manifestations in favour of France. The Mi-
nisters of the contracting Powers have been so offended
at them that they have used their influence with King
Otho to delay the remittance of a million of francs which
is the amount of the interest of the loan guaranteed by
France. They have alleged that the remittance of this
sum, added to the testimonies of public opinion, would
be considered as a formal adherence to the system of
France, and the million has not been remitted."—Sud de

The Gazette de Tribunaux of this morning has the
following article :
" A correspondence and papers of the highest im-
portance has been seized, as we are assured at the resi-
dence of two individuals, one a man of ►etters, the other
a medical student, both belonging to the society of
Travailleurs, and who have both been arrested."
A nephew of a celebrated Abbe, Mr. N--, who
is at this moment making a propagandist tour in the de-
partments of the centre, is said to be most seriously im-
plicated by the discovery of letters written by him from
different places, and which, it is said, are calculated to
throw new light on the causes of the proceedings of the
working-classes, which, during the last week, have
spread apprehension and trouble in Paris."—Le Con,
