THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The Journal des DBats publishes an article oppos-
ing the reelection of Louis NAPOLEON BONAPARTE,
as President of the Republic, and supporting the
pretensions of the Prince DE JoINVILLE. The Debats
continues to be, it always has been, the organ of the
Orleans family, and 1:*-11s declaration of hostility to the
pretensions of the Bonapartists is, therefore, import-
ant. Twenty-seven of the Councils-General
have decided in favour of revision, but only eleven are
in favour of revision in a Bonapartist sense; and
since the publication of the letter of the Comte DE
CHAMBORD, blaming MM. BEREYER and RE FAL..
Loux for voting in favour of a revision, and the dis-
tinot declaration of hostility to the pretensions of
LOUIS NAPOLEON by the Orleanists, it is doubtful
whether a new motion for the revision would not be
rejected by the Assembly by an absolute majority.
The fusionists, MM. GIJIZOT, DUCHATEL, and MON..
TA.LIVET, were very coldly received at Claremont. It
is said that the Prince DE JOINVILLE refused to see
M. DE MONTALIVET.
The Gazette des Tribunaux says :—" We are as-
sured that, when the Minister of Justice was informed
by the Procureur- General of Lyons that the advocates
the accused before the court-martial had retired,
he ordered the different parquets, under whose juris-
diction they are placed, to complain of their conduct
to the Council of Discipline."
M. ALPHONSE GENT and the condemned of Lyons
have lodged the following appeal in the hands of the
proper authorities :
The undersigned declare that they appeal in revision
against the judgment rendered against them on the
28th of August, 1851, by the Second Permanent Court-
Martial at Lyons, and against all incident decisions
during the trial, and they do so on grounds affecting the
merits and technicalities of the case, which will be
hereafter indicated. They place you under the obliga-
tion of supplying them with the means of giving to their
appeal any more complete, and more legal form which
may be necessary.

Four of the prisoners,' viz., DuieoNT and CARLE, sen-
tenced to six Llonthe' imprisonment, and SAUVRE and
THOVREL to a yezkr's imprisonment, have not appealed.
Letters from Toulon of the 29th mention the fact
of rumours being in circulation there that the French
Mediterranean squadron had received orders to pro-
ceed to the coast of Italy as speedily as possible. The
state of the Italian peninsula generally, and of Naples
in particular, is said to be the cause of these orders
being given.
