THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.
The election of a new President of the National
Assembly, in the room of M. MARIS, appointed Mi-
nister of Justice, took place yesterday. The candi-
dates were M. ARMAND MARRAST and M. LACROSSB.
The latter gentleman was put forward by the reac-
tionary party as being likely to make a better fight
than M. DurAuss, one of the former Ministers of
the ex King Louis PairArrE, whom the Poictiers
Club had originally intended to start. At the close
of the balloting the numbers were—
For M. ARMAND MARRAST 4ll
For M. LACROSSE

M. ARMAND MARRAST was therefore declared
duly elected. This gentleman has ceased to be
Mayor of Paris. That city is now under the go-
vernment of the Municipality, which has been re-ur-
ganized by General CAYAIGNAC, who has nominated
M. TROUVR CuauTAL Prefect of the Seine, and
M. Ducoux Prefect of Police, with M. O'REILLY
(convicted of political offences under the ORLEANS
dynasty) as Chief Secretary.
The purchase of the Lyons Railway by the Go-
vernment is completed, the price paid is 150 francs,
in fives, per share.
The Sub-Committee of Commerce, will, it is
thought, recommend the payment of a minimum
bounty of three per cent. upon the exportation of
goods the produce of France.

the Committee will recommend the imposition of an

PRUSSIA-

The four individuals accused of exciting the mob
to plunder the arsenal have been tried, found guilty,
and sentenced as follows :—Kortx and SIEGERIST to
seven, LavmsouN to two, and URBAN to one year's
imprisonment in a fortress.
It is said that the Committee appointed by the
Constituent Assembly to draw up a new constitution,
has decided, by a majority of 15 to 8, in favour of
two Chambers. The second Chamber to consist of
350 members, elected in an indirect manner by uni-
versal suffrage. The Senate is to consist of 175 ; and
the only difference between the qualification required
for a Senator and that required for a Member of the
second Chamber, is that a Senator must be forty
years of age. The election for Senators to take
place every six years, that for Members of the second
Chamber every three yeart.

The Berlin Nachrichten, of the 16th, says, the
old ultra:nontane influence which has so long existed
in Munich is disappearing, and Bavaria now recog-
nises that an intimate alliance with Prussia will be
the strongeat link in the chain which binds Germany
together. By the union of these two states it will
be impossible for Austria not to join in the general
union of Germany, and the danger will be avoided
of Austria's re-transferring the central point of the
empire to Vienna.
