PARIS CORRESPONDENCE.
WEDNESDAY.

A Privy Connell was held yesterday at St. Cloud,
where the Ministers also held a Council. M. Schneider
and M. Rouher were present, with the object, if I am

during these discussions. Another Council is to be held
at the end of the week, most probably on Saturday, when
the text of the decree is to be decided, so that
it may be submitted to the Senate on Monday.

sshceuonsaasrteeodre. s who are
take a prominent part, have as yet given any indxipcaNetceitoietndhote:f
the course they intend to pursue. Prince Napoleon, it is
said, will only support the Senatus Consultum so far
as it fulfils not only the wishes of the Constitutional
party, but the aspirations of the Democrats.
M. Michel Chevalier will support the decree, while ho
disapproves of the Emperor's resignation of his exclusive
privilege of making commercial treaties. As for the
Cardinals they are so taken up with thoughts of the
(Ecumenical Council that they are.not likely to interfere
in the debate.
M. Tillers, whose departure for Baden was spoken of
some time since, is detained in Paris by the illness of his
mother-in-law, Madame Doane.
A singular incident occurred yesterday in the law courts.
A young man was so much incensed at the manner in which
the opposing counsel had conducted his case that he
followed him out into the galleries :And gave him a blow
on the face. Great excitement prevailed among the
gentlemen of the long robe, and the culprit was arrested.
Another trapeze accident has just occurred. Yesterday
evening an acrobat, who was performing in a cafe at
Choisy, missed his hold and fell on the head of a young
workman, who was seriously hurt. The acrobat himself
was slightly injured.
Two more deaths Are recorded from the thunderstorm
of Saturday last. A man who took refuge under a tree
at Besancon, and a young shepherd at Chaux Neuve,
were both killed by lightning.
M. Maximo Ducamp has just published a couple of
articles in the Revue des deux Mondes, on the thieves and
police of Paris. He has divided the offenders into classes,
beginning with the " tramp " and ending with the
desperate burglar. The faiseurs are the most numerous
of all the thieving classes, and they are everywhere met
with. No one can be too much on his guard against th em;
they are in the street, at the cafe, at watering places,
and in all directions. The faiseur has in most
cases an office in the busy part of the town,
and be generally succeeds in catching a number
of gulls, who bewail their folly in having listened to his
counsels. At convenient seasons the faiseur's office is to
let, and he has forgotten to leave his address. The faiseur
fraternity arc adepts in deceit, and leave little or nothing
untried that may swell their fortunes and carry out their
schemes. They manufacture bills of exchange, and carry
on the business in the most audacious fashion. Some
of these aspiring individuals end their days as
millionaires, while others lament their bad luck
at Cayenne or the galleys. At ono time these
worthies cost the public three millions ;sterling through
the extensive plunder they carried on. The shabby gen-
teel beggars come next in the category of crime. They
pretend to have seen better days as ruined clergymen,
broken-down lawyers, and so on. They walk off with
anything valuable in a most surprising manner. Shop-
lifting approaches perfection in Paris, and one of the
most successful professors in this line stole during one
afternoon's walk a cigar case, a watch case, a cane, a'ring,
a pocketbook, and a pair of shoes. Burglary and murder
are not pursued as professions, but there are instances
on record of Parisian banditti. Many-of the once-famous
haunts where the thieves amused themselves have been
swept away, but some account is given of those which
remain. One apparently respectable place looks like a
cafe outside, but the interior is crowded every night by
thieves and their mistresses. The number of arrests
that take place in Paris has increased of late ; but then
it must be remembered that the police arrest on very
slight grounds. M. Ducamp thinks highly of the effi-
ciency of the police, and admires their zeal and activity.
The present police system was' organised in 1854, the
most important branch being the detectives. M.
Ducamp gives no account of the political police or their
system of espionage. If ho had, his article would speedily
have cot him into trouble.

SCIENCE AND ART.—A striking instance of the immense
value a small piece of steel may acquire by the great power of
killed mechanical labour is the balance-spring of a watch. From
its extreme fineness and delicacy 4,000 weigh not more than one
ounce, and exceed in value 1 I,ooro 0. A most interesting little

is profusely illustrated, gives a full description of the various
kinds of watches and clocks, with their prices Mr. Benson (who
holds the appointment to the Prince of Wales) has also published
a pamphlet on Artistic Gold Jewellery, illustrated with the most
beautiful designs of Bracelets, Brooches, Earrings, Lockets, Sc.,
Ite., suitable for Wedding, Birthday, and other presents. These
pamphlets are sent post free for two stamps each, and they can-
