PARIS CORRESPONDENCE.

TUESDAY.

The journal Officiel has at last broken silence, and it has
done so most emphatically. The rumours of Ministerial
modifications have never had any foundation. The Minis-
ters have had no other subject for discussion at Compiegne
than the measures to be submitted to the Corps Legislatif,
MM. Rouher and Schneider were only summoned to the
Imperial presence by the necessity of their participation in
the discussions regulating the relations between the
Governn2ent and the great bodies of the State. After this
intimation the Journal Offieiel kindly goes on to inform us
of the result of these weighty deliberations. They resolve
themselves into thrce drafts of measures, which
need not, one would imagine, have required a " Ministerial
retreat "at Compigne. One concerns the elections of the
officers of the Conseils -Gen4raux and the muncipal councils
of Paris and Lyons, the others are a senatus-consultum
relative to the election of colonial councils and a measure
defining the functions compatible with the office of deputy.
If we are to keep the Forcade Cabinet, we are, it would
seem, to keep along with it the obnoxious Article 75, the
present uncertainty as to the limits of electoral circum-
scriptions, and Paris must consent to dispense with its
municipal franchise.
The Liberte announces that the Journal Officiel of next
Sunday will contain an important letter from the Emperor
on the political situation. The Libertd affirms that it has
good authority for stating that the Imperial manifesto
will be extremely liberal.
Another official announcement is made this morning.
Marshal Bazaine is appointed Commander-in-Chief of the
Imperial Guard—a fact which is not without its signifi-
cance in these October days.
With regard to the threatened demonstration of the
26th it has been remarked that M. Raspail has not signed
the manifesto of the Left, to which his confreres MM.
Gambetta and Eancel have attached their names. The
reason of this omission is to be found, I understand, in the
determination of the veteran Republican to present him-
self at the Chambers on the 26th, if he does so in solitary
state. It is affirmed that he expressed his intentions at a
private meeting held at La Villette, last Sunday,
notwithstanding the letter addressed to him by
his constituents, and that the six hundred per-
sons present declared they would accompany him.
This resolution, as you will readily perceive, is much to be
regretted in the present state of affairs. Let us hope that
M. Raspail will abandon it during the intervening week.
M. Thiers is the only Parisian deputy who has not signed
the manifesto. He is absent from Paris, but probably
would not have signed it in any case. The Liberal press
generally applauds the manifesto as most opportune
and well considered. I hear that in case M. Raspail pro-
vokes any demonstration, the Emperor is resolved to
repress it with a strong hand.
The drapers' strike is still continued, and yesterday
morning a last ultimatum was sent to the masters of the
various establishments. The latter replied that they could
not decide until they agreed among themselves. Six esta-
blishments are said to be willing to accept the terms im-
posed by the association which carries on the strike, but
for the most part the employers are firm in their resist-
ance. The Louvre was deserted by 300 assistants, and
their places have been supplied by 150 young women and
more than a hundred new hands. In some places, how-
ever, the heads of the establishments Iliad to conduct the
business themselves, and one house engaged a hundred
orphans from an institution, who waited on their ens.
tomers in their ordinary costume of grey wool. Four
thousand employds have been taken from the provinces, and
it is fortunate for the masters that the business is quickly
learnt and needs no training or apprenticeship. It is cal-
eulated that not less than nine thousand assistants have
gone on strike. An association of masters has been formed,
and the leading houses of Paris have resolved to assist
those establishments which are likely to fail in conse-
quence of the strike of their employds, but up to this
moment the deserted houses have not sustained any losses
through the defection. The shops are besieged with
customers, who do not seem to experience any inconvenience
in the new order of things. I hear that the proposition to
engage women as assistants does not find much favour with
the masters.

MARRIAGE IN Man LlFE.—This morning the
marriage of Sir &gineld Knightley with the Hon. Miss
Miss Bowater, daughter of Lady Bowater, was solemnized
at St. Peter's Church, Pimlico.
A terrific explosion of gunpowder took place
yesterday at the works of Messrs. Dixon, Black Beck,
about four miles from Windermere. Three of the work-
men were blown to moms. The cause of the accident is
unknown.
[ADTERTI3EMENT.II-- Holloway's Pills.— The Best
Friends —When bad health overtakes mankind, what would
not be given to be freed from it? Holloway presents to
all invalids the means of recovering their health, and re-
newing failing strength for a mere trifle. His Pills in-
variably produce the most satisfactory results where the
digestion, circulation, nervous powers, or other vital
actions are at fault. The Pills purify the blood, balance
its circulation, regulate the liver, stimulate the kidneys,
and strengthen the stomach and intestines, on which they
gently but effectually operate as aperients. Illnesses of the
most alarming character which have withstood all other
treatment, have gradually yielded to a course of Hollo-
way's Pills, which will ever prove the invalid's safest
friend.
