THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The Legitimatists and Bonapartists will, it is said, op-
p )6e the motion of M. CRETeN for permitting the return
of the Bourbons, and the Opinion Publique also calls
upon the Orleanists to oppose it "on the ground of the
union cemented and declared between all the members
of the Bourbon family." According to the terms of this
union (to which, however, the Duchess of ORLEANS is
not a party) the Princes of the House of Orleans cannot
return to France until HENRI V. shall be proclaimel, and
even should the Prince DE JoINVILLE be elected Presi-
dent of the Republic he could not accept the office.
Although the anniversary of the 24th February
passed off without disturbance, there was a quiet but
strong manifestation of public feeling in favour of
Republicanism; although there was no large procession,
yet upwards of 100,000 persons visited the column of
July for the purpose of depositing crowns of immortelles.
We find the following in the Patrie:—" We have re-
ceived accounts from Cayenne to the 24th of Jan. At
that time the colony was plunged into great consternation,
in consequence of the death of the Governor, Captain
Maissin, from yellow fever. Although his ship,
the Tartare, was still in quarantine, eighteen sailors,
all that remained alive out of a crew of sixty-five, deter-
mined to follow the body of their beloved commander to
tho grave. The population en inasse attended the
funeral. Captain Maissin was a nephew of the cele-
brated composer, Auber, and the French navy has by
his death lost a very valuable officer. The Procureur-
Gileral, in consequence of the death of the Governor,
had assumed the temporary direction of the affairs of the
colony. The fever, which had abated for MOMS little
time, had again resumed all its violence."
The Bourse was firm, with little business doing. The
Five per Cents. opened at 96f. 60c., and closed at 96i.
65c.; the Three per Cents. closed at 57f. 900.; Orleans

GERMANY.

Accounts from Vienna, of the 23d ult., state that
strong notes bad been addressed to Sardinia and to
Switz erland, on the subject of the Italian refugees.
Negotiations had been entered into with France, but
obstacles had been interposed on the part of England.
In the course of a debate in the Hanoverian Chamber,
on the subject of the Dresden Conferences, the Presi-
dent of the Council stated that tho Government of
Hanover would not tolerate any foreign influence having
for its object any change in the Constitution, or any in-
fringement of the rights of the Crown,
