We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The following telegraphic dispatch announcing the
arrival of the PRESIDENT at Beauvais, has been pub-
lished by the 11Iinisty of the Interior
The train which convoyed the President of tho Re-
public, the Ministers, &c., arrived at Clermont at te❑
o'clock. He was received by the authorities and by a
large crowd of people, who displayed the greatest enthu-
siasm. From Clermont to Beauvais the inhabitants and
tho National Guard, in the best order, were assembled
on his passage, and rent the air with their acclamations.
Every village bad its triumphal arch of evergreens and
flowers. At the gates of Beauvais the President was
harangued by the mayor; he passed thrcugh the stree!s
between two ranks of the National Guard, many of whom
had come 20 leagues to be present at the fete. The
streets were dressed out with flags, the houses decorated
with garlands and flowers, and every window and also
the rcofs filled with spectators. Never did the chief of
. .

the Executive Government meet with a more enthusias:
tic reception. After hearing mass at the cathedral,
where the bishop delivered a most retrmrizable :Teed)'
the President proceeded to the Prefecture, where he is
now engaged in receiving the authorities."
The inauguration of the statue of JEANNE
HACHETTE having taken place, the PRESIDENT and
his suite proceeded to the banquet which had been
prepared in the Hotel de Vile. At the dessert the
MAYOR proposed as a toast, " To the PRESIDENT ! to
the elect of the 10th December, the heir of the most
illustrious warrior !" which he introduced with the

following speech :
" Your presence within our walls rccals the remtm-
brance of the visit of the First Consul in. 1802. It excites
the same enthusiasm and the same sentiments of gratitude.
To you:we are inthibted for the tranquillity which.ze
now enjoy. The wise measures which you have taken,
and the force and 'energy of the government have put
anarchy to silence. Order, disturbed by a convulsion
which shook society to its very foundations, has been
re-established. Credit revives, and commerce and in-

dustry have resumed their free course. Thanks be to you
for all these blessings. Vive le President ! Vivo la
France !"

The PRESIDENT replied as follows :
" Gentlemen,—The honourable Mayor of Beauvais
will pardon me for confining myself to merely thanking
him for the flattering words which he has just addressed
to me. In replying to it, I should fear to change the
religious character of the fete, which, by the commemo-
ration of a glorious fact accomplished in this city, pre-
sents a high historical lesson.
" It is encouraging to think that, in cases of extreme
danger, Providence frequently reserves to one alone to
be the salvation of all, and under certain circumstances,it
has even chosen that being 'from among the softer sex,
as if it wished, by the weakness of the instrument, to
better prove the empire of the soul over human affairs
and to show that a cause does not perish when it is
carried on with ardent faith, inspired devotedness, and
deep conviction.
" Thus, in the fifteenth century, with a few years of
interval, two females, obscure but animated with sacred
fire, Jeanne d'Arc and Jeanne Hachette, appeared at
the most desperate moment to fulfil a holy mission.
" One had the miraculous glory of delivering France
from a foreign yoke, the other inflicted the disgrace of
a retreat on a prince who, in spits of the eclat and ex•
tent of his power, was only a rebel and an artisan of
civil war.
" And yet, to what is reduced these actions? They
did nothing else than show to Frenchmen the4r •a. to
honour and duty, and how to,niarch in it at thl • ead.
" Such examples must be honoured and per.: , ed.
And, therefore, I am happy 'to think that it :was the
Emperor Napoleon who, fn 1806, re-established the an-
cient custom so long interrupted of celebrating the
raising of the siege of Beauvais.
" The reason was this, that fbr him France was not a
factitious country born f yesterday, inclosed within the
narrow limits of a single period yr solitary party;, sll6
was a nation which had become great by eight hundreds.
years of monarchy, and not less great after ten year! of
revolution; labouring for the fusion of all interests, an-
cient and modern, and accepting all kinds of glLy
without regard to time or cause.
t% We have fully inherited these sentiments, for I be-
hold here representatives of all parties; they come here,
as I do, to render homage to the warlike virtue of a
period, to the heroism of a woman.--(Loud applause.)
. .

" Let us drink to the memory of Jeanne iliChette!"

The speech was followed-by loud and reiterated
shouts of " Vive Napoleon !" " Vive le Presi-
dent !"
The notorious TRANSOM, the rebellious Archbishop
of Turin, has been for some time residing in Paris.
A serious accident took place on Saturday night
on the Lyons Railway, near Tonnerre. The train
from Chalons was run into by an engine coming down
the road, and the driver of which had fallen asleep.
Almost all the carriages were upset, and 15 passen-
gers injured so severely that they were obliged to be
left at Tonnerre. The Moniteur states that this ac-
count has been much exaggerated ; several passengers
received slight bruises only, and the train met with
little delay.
The Moniteur du Soir says—
" The proposition for a Parliamentary prorogation
has met with the unanimous approbation of the Com-
mittee on leaves of absence. A proposition to prorogue
the Assembly from the 13th August to the let Septem-
ber will consequently be immediately presented."
The Courrier de la Somme of the sth, published at
Amiens, says :—" 'We have just learned that 12,0n0
uniforms of French National Guards have this day
been seized at the Custom-house of Boulogne-sur-
Mer. These uniforms were comprised amongst the
luggage of the ex-Duke of BRUNSWICK, and were
presented for transit only.
There was not much business transacted at the Bourse.
It was mentioned there that 400,000 f., a portion of the
deficit of M. Treillet, the agent de change who absconded
last week, had been recovered. The Five per Cents.
