THE FRENCH REPUBLie

"We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
Beyond the repetition by the Debats of the ru-
moured refusal of M. CORBIN to accept a seat in the
new Cabinet, there is nothing in the papers of more
than ordinary interest. The Dikats still adheres to
the law of the 31st of May, of which it would, how-
ever, allow some alterations ; but declares itself
friendly to a revision of the Constitution.
The PRESIDENT of the Republic returned to the
Elysee on Thursday, to resume his residence at that
palace.
The Dibats says :—" Our letters from Rome of the
24th state that the Ministerial crisis in Francelengages
public attention in a very distressing manner, and
causes no less anxiety at Rome than in Paris ; such
a state of things more and more injures our position
with regard to the Pontifical Government, and on the
other hand revives the hopes of the Mazzinian party.
M. DR BOUTENIEFF, the Russian Minister, who has
long been absent from Rome, has returned with
his family, and resides at the Embassy. Count DE
Luzzow, formerly Austrian Ambassador, and
who was compelled to leave Rome after the events
of 1848, has returned, but without any mission.
General DE L'ETANG has left, after having completed
the inspection of the 11th Dragoons. The General
has addressed to this fine regiment an order of the
day, complimenting it on its dicipline. The sanitary
state of the French army continues favourable, and
as the fever season is over, one of the two military
hospitals has been temporarily shut up."
KOSSUTR'S speeches at Southampton and Win-
chester attract great attention. Indeed there is a
general feeling of regret at the mistake into which
the late Ministry had allowed itself to be led with
respect to this extraordinary and truly great man.
There was a slight rise in the price of public securities
at the Bourse. The Five per Cents. opened at 89f. 95c.,
and olosed at 90f. 100. for the end of the month; the
Three per Cents. closed at 55f. 70c.; Orleans Railroad
Shares, 8551.; Rouen, 557 f. 50c.; Havre, 203 t. 750.;
Vierzon, 421 f. 25c.; Paris and Strasburgh, 348 f. 750.;
Tours and Nantes, 252 f. 50c.

SPAIN.

Our accounts of Madrid are of the 25th inst.
The Heralds announces the proximate arrival in
the capital of the Marquis of VILLAFRANCA, the only
Spanish grandee who remained faithful to the cause
of Don Celt Los. He lately made his submission to
the QUEEN, and returns to Spain with his son, the
Duke of FERNANDINA.
General Roxcau, Count of Alcoy, addressed to
several journals a long manifesto, in reply to the letter
of M. ISTURITZ on the events of Cuba. The General
answers in particular a paragraph which he consi-
dered ito contain a critical allusion to the clemency
he had shown the American pirates captured last
year at Cardenas.
The Military Gazette mentions that 100 Paixhans
guns are to be sent to Havannab, for the armament of
the forts along the coast of Cuba.
The Nacion quotes a letter from Melilla, stating
that the Moors had captured an English brig laden
with Indian corn, which was obliged by stress of
weather to seek refuge in the Bay of Betoya, near
Alhucemas. The Clamor Publico, which also re-
ceived a letter from Melilla, mentioning the same fact,
adds, that a few hours afterwards two English
steamers and a brig of war sailed from Gibraltar, can-
nonaded several points of the coast, burnt all the small
vessels they met with, and inflicted other injury on
the pirates. Melilla suffered greatly from want of
provisions. The inhabitants were reduced to live on
vegetables and dry fish of a bad quality. Meat was
distributed by ration, and only for the sick. The
Moors continued to attack the place, and the inhabi-
tants loudly demanded its abandonment, if the Govern-
ment could not remedy the evils they endured. The
steamer Castilla had landed at Melilla a battalion of
the regiment of the Infanta, sent to relieve a battalion
of the Regiment of Borbon.
It being Sunday, the Bourse remained closed.
