LATEST FROM PARIS.

The Paris papers have not arrived in consequence
of the renewal of the disturbances.

It appears that the people have taken possession of
all the railways leading to Paris, and taken up the
rails, so as to prevent the arrival of reinforcements.

There has been a frightful loss of life, and in many
instances the troops have refused to act against the
people. The passengers from Boulogne to Paris were
obliged to return from Neuchatel to Boulogne, as the
railway is stopped.
It is said that an attempt has been made to burn
the Tuileries.

SUN-OFFICE, Three o'Cloch.

We are still without direct intelligence from Paris.
It is said, however, that the Government have re-
ceived a telegraphic communication which describes
the state of Paris as fearfal. The latest direct intel-
ligence goes no later than Wednesday evening, at which
time the people were erecting barricades in all direc-
tions, and making all the necessary preparations for
a fierce conflict. It is said that the revolt is extend-
ing to the provincial towns, and that Amiens has
" pronounced" in favour of the Reform movement.
It is said that cannon had been fired in the streets
of Paris yesterday. The fact that all communication
between Pari3, and Calais and Boulogne, is stopped,
is alone sufficient to prove that Paris was yesterday,
and is most probably to-day, the scene of a most
frightful carnage.
SUN OFFICE, Half-past Three.

There is a rumour prevailing in the City that the
KING of the FRENCH has landed at Doter. We give
this merely as a rumour, without in the least vouch-
ing for its authenticity.

BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, FEB. 23.—The demand
has not been so good during the past week, and the
sales do not exceed 400 hhda., for which importers have
submitted to a decline of Is. per cwt. from the highest
point of tho market, at which reduction they are firm.
The sales of rums aro 120 puns, principally Demeraras,

UNDERMINING. The Bradford workhouse is
threatened to be remorselessly undermined by coal
workings. unless 2001. be paid down directly to prevent
the risk of its destruction; but the threat appears to
have accidently, revealed the fact, that both the ground
and the minerals beneath its surface belong to the work-
house itself! So that the Liter is likely to be bit, if it
be true that he has thus unwarily caught a tartar.
We are glad to learn that some of the print-fields
in the neighbourhood of Glasgow are commencing,
though slowly, to show signs of briskness. The Busby
field, and some others, are now in full operation, and
more are expected to follow soon. The operative calico-
printers have, we believe, suffered more from the late
depression than any class of tradesmen in Scotland.—
Glasgow Chronicle.
CORCTNER'S INQUEST.—Yesterday a coroner's in-
quest was held by Mr. Bedford, at the Sun, Castle street,
Leicester-square, on the body of Eliza Frances Ridley,
aged 40. On Saturday last the deceased was in good
health, and on the Sunday morning was taken with vio-
lent pains and died shortly after. On a post mortem
exlmination a quantity of arsenic was foutal in the
stomach. The inquest was adjourned.
TWO men have died of starvation during the past
week iu Compton-place, Brunswick-square.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was
heavy. Sales, 3,500 bales. Railway Shares were a
shade better.

The Money Market is rather more feverish to-day,
on account of the intelligence from Paris of the renewal
of disturbances, but probably in the end there will
be no particular influence exercised upon it, or rather
the reaction that has occurred may be recovered, should
peace be restored to France. The commercial markets
have not been affected hitherto, but must be somewhat
clogged, unless an alteration occurs.
The accounts by the Tay steamer, from the West Indies,
are given fully in another column of The Sun, but we may
remark that there is not any particular feature in them.
The mercantile houses in the City state, that their corre-
spondents are specially anxious to learn whether there
is a hope of the discriminating duties being reim-
posed upon sugar, and we need hardly remark that this
anxiety will not be long ere it is relieved, though not,
perhaps, in the way anticipated. Our Government cannot
return, in the present temper of the times, to the sys-
tem of class legislation, and is not so inclined.
A small firm in the African trade at Liverpool is an-
nounced as having suspended payment.
The Belgian Government has asked the Chamber of
Deputies for a loan of 25,000,000 francs, or permission
to issue Exchequer-bills to that amount.
The Funds have to-day felt more seriously tho effect
of the accounts from Paris, which now are regarded
with some anxiety. Consols opened at 88i, fell to 87,
and are now 87i to 88. Time bargains were made at
88 to 88, and since at 88i j. The settlement of
the account has been completed today, and the pay-
ments this morning have been made with tolerable
regularity, although one or two parties are in difficulties.
Exchk quer-bills have been quoted 30s. premium. Bank
Stock is worth 198 to 1991, and India Stock 244. The
New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 894
and 89.

Spanish Active Bonds are 201 and Portuguese small
26. Brazil Stock is worth 83i to 841. Dutch Two-and-
