LONDON, SATUrtDAY EVEN

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
It appears that the reception of the PRESIDENT of
the Republic, at Chatelherault, was by no means flat-
tering, and that the inhabitants of that locality are by
no means favourably disposed to a prolongation of his
powers. His supporters on his arrival raised a cry of
" Vive Napoleon," which was instantly drowned by
cries of Vioe La Republique, raised by the assembled
population of the district, who continued cheering for
the Republic until the PRESIDENT had taken his de-
parture and was out of hearing.
The Patrie, the organ of the Elysee, denounces the
scenes which took place at Chatelherhault, as " dis-
graceful."
The report of M. DE TOCQUEVILLE, on the revision
question, will be read to the Committee on Monday,
and presented to the Assembly on Wednesday.
We read in the Patrie :—" A report has been in
circulation that the cholera had made its appearance
at the Hospital of Bicetre, but it is perfectly without
foundation. From a report made by Dr. EMERY,
member of the Conseil de Salubrite, it appears that
from the 24th to the 28th ult., fifteen persons had
been attacked with symptoms resembling cholera,
but that on the Ist the whole of them had been cured.
There was nothing in these cases to lead to the sup-
position of the return of the ,epidemic disease which
raged in Paris in previous years."—The Moniteur
du Soir states that the malady in question was in-
fluenza.
The Committee on the Avignon Railway Bill yes-
terday elected M. DUFAURE as its reporter by eight
votes to three, given to MM. VICTOR LEFRANC, DE
RANEY, and DE LABOULIE.
The .Moniteur contains two decrees, one ap-
pointing for July 27, the election of a representative
of the people, in the department of the Lot, to fill
up the vacancy caused by the death of M. DE ST.
PRIEST ; and the other, fixing also for July 27, the
election of a representative of the people in the Nord,
vice General DE LARITTE, resigned.
