THE FRENCH REPUBLIC%

THE SHARE MARKETS.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The Ordre declares definitively that the Orlean-
ists have determined to start the Prince DE JOIN-
VILLE as a candidate for_the Presidency of the Re-
public.
The leading Republican members of the Assembly
have subscribed to HAZZINI'S loan ; among the sub-
scribFrs is M. VICTOR HUGO.

NOlllinal rriCeS,

The Indipendance of Brussels has the following
from its Paris correspondent:—" I have just learned
that the candidateship of the Prince DE JOINVILLE to
represent Paris in the Legislative Assembly, and to
which a part of the Republicans, and, in particular,
the shade Recurt and Barthelemy St. Hi-
laire gave its approval, is formally re-
jected by the PRINCE. A letter from England
leaves no doubt on the point. As to the candidate-
ship for the place of President of the Republic, the
Princes refuse to speak on the subject. They keep
what they call a policy of abstention ? But is that
really to abstain? Silence is often significant. It
is evident that if the words attributed to the PRINCE,
that if France appealed to his devotednes3 he would
not be wanting, were really uttered, as I have no
doubt they were ; if that, I say, is the case, it is evi-
dent that should his candidateship appear to have
serious chances of success, it will be accepted. My
impartiality also induces me to relate to you a cir-
cumstance which is connected with the Duke D'Au-
MALE'S stay at Naples, and which shows the exagge-
ration of the recitals given in the journals of the in-
timacy existing between him and the Duchess of
PARMA, the sister of the Count DE CHAMBORD. The
somewhat eccentric character of the Princess scarcely
admitted of such ac intimacy, requiring, as it evi-
dently would, tact and delicacy. The King of
NAPLES was anxious for the reconciliation. The first
interview took place at the palace in the presence of
all the Royal Family. Shortly after his entrance,
the Duke D'AUMALE went up to the Duchess, and
saluted her, pronouncing some appropriate words.
The Duchess did not reply. The King of
NAPLES, who had observed everything, did not con-
ceal from her his discontent. What, said she, he

is my cousin ! I knew nothing about it: And ap-
proaching the DUKE, she excused herself for the
manner in which she had received him. After that,

they became somewhat intimate, and the DUKE was
sometimes seen with the PRINCESS in the KING'S
box at the opera. This became the subject of con-
versation ; and some days after, whether secret advice
came from Frohsdorff, or some other matters occurred
at the palace which the world is not aware of, the
DUCIIESS having given a little fete, the Duke n'Au-
MALE was not invited. Since then, the interview
between them was polite but cold."
The court-martial at Lyons still continues. There
has as yet been no proof, whatever of the existence of
any conspiracy, except indeed of a conspiracy on the
part of the authorities to have a conviction by fair
means or foul. The judges and prosecutors seem to
belong rather to the meridian of Naples than to that
of France.

There was scarcely any business transacted at the
Bourse. The Five per Cents, opened at 95f. 65c., and
closed at 95f. 55c. for the end of the month; the

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were es-
timated at from' 8,000, to 10,000 bales, of which 2,000
American were taken for export, and 1,000 Surat on
speculation. The sales comprised 300 remain and Ma-
ranham at 50. to 61A., 200 Egyptian at Sid. to 7id.,
2,000 Surat at 21d. to 3ii., and the remainder prince•
pally American. The market closed firmly at previous
rates.—The Share Market was better, especially for
Midland Stock.

Ia the Produce Markets there has been a fair busi-
ness done this week. Sugar is somewhat cheaper,
Coffee is in favour, and not so much has been done.
Rice is heavy. Tea has been taken to a moderate ex-
tent. Raw materials used for manufacturing purposes
have commanded a good sale, and Cotton is even dearer.
The consumption of the latter is proceeding at a great
rate, and is likely to extricate the speculators from
their embarassment.
A Government contract for 50,000 gallons of rum is
announced.
Tho following figures are compiled from a Parlia-
mentary return, and show the quantity of British ma-
nufactures of Cotton, including twist and yarn, exported
from the United Kingdom to all parts of the world:—
