duced to 12, when the candidate has made a voyage

is to be henceforward gratuitous.
Serious disturbances have br, ken out at Ardoz in
the department of the Lower Pyrenees. The out-
break is probably to be attributed to Legitimist
intrigues. The inhabitants of this part of France
are grossly ignorant, and consequently completely in
the hands of the partiTtetre. The tax of 45 centimes
is the excuse given for this outbreak. Troops have
been ordered to proceed to Ardoz from the garrisons
of Pau and Tarbes.

We read in the Semaphore of Marseilles, of Satur-
day :—" In the evening of Thursday, the Lieutenant-
General in command of the seventh military division
received an order by the telegraph to form two war
battalions from the garrison of Marseilles. This
order was immediately executed. The 20th and 23d
each furnished the necessary contingents, and they
are ready to march at the first signal. Their desti-
nation is as yet unknown, and this mystery has given
rise to all sorts of conjectures. A battery of artillery
is also expected from Valence."
Some disturbance took place at Lyons on the Ist
in consequence of an order of the Municipal Council
requiring payment of tolls for crossing some of the
bridges. A crowd assembled near the Pont Morand,
and at last the police were obliged to call on them
three times, in the usual way, to disperse. As they
still continued near the bridge, the agents separated,
and, going to various points, arrested between thirty
and forty persons, some of whoth were women. This
occurred about nine in the evening, and at half-past
ten everything was perfectly quiet.
The Moniteur publishes a decree by General CA
VAIGNAC for the definitive organization of the Na-
tional Garde Mobile. It is to consist, as already
formed, of 25 battalions, the 25th retaining the name
of Gardes Marines. Each battalion is to have eight
companies, and the force of each battalion is to be
650, including officers; 130 of this number are to be
men of the 2d class. The pay of the non-commis-
sioned officers and privates is to be as follows :—Ad.
jutants, 3f. per day; Sergeant Majors, 2f. 40c. ;
Sergeants,: lf. 90c. ; Corporals, If. 60c. ; drum-
mers, lf. 60c.; privates of the Ist class, lf. 50c.;
24 class, lf. 25c. The new enrolments for the 2d
class commence this day. No person will be ad-
mitted under sixteen years of age, or more than
thirty (except soldiers who have served at least
seven years in the regular army, in which case the
outside limit will be thirty-five), and every recruit
must have lived six months in the department of the
Seine, or have in the department a relation or friend
who will engage to receive him in the event of his
discharge from the service.
BOURSE—PARIS, TUESDAY, SEPT. 5.
THREE O'CLOCE.—Several reports unfavourable to
peace were current at the Bourse, which produced a fall
of per cent. in the Five per Cents. and Three per
Cents. Railway Shares were similarly affected. Ihe
decree voted yesterday by the National Assembly, to
prolong the term originally fixed upon for the capitaliza-
tion of the shares in the Paris and Lyons Railway, until
the 15th instant, had also a depreciating effect on the
market.
