We published a few days since the official return
of the general receipts of the French revenue for
the first nine months of the present year. The
Moniteur now gives the return of the Customs
revenue for the same period, as well as for the
last month :—" The receipts for the month of
September amounted to 15,716,814 fr., being a de-
crease of 250,723 fr. as compared with the corre-
sponding month of 1857. Those of the first nine
months of the present year were 141,785,576 fr.,
being a diminution of 1,394,962 fr. as compared with
the first three quarters of last year. The items of
revenue which show an improvement are—French
colonial sugar, 13,016,776 fr. ; cocoa, 130,002 fr. ;
coffee, 220,179 fr. ; hemp and flax, 161,227 fr. ;
cochineal, 31,017 fr. ; coal, 592,833 fr. ; oil, 377,143 fr. ;
pepper, 62,608 fr. ; silk (raw and spun), 14,999 fr. ;
rough salt, 14,409 fr. ; and sulphur, 43,259 fr. Those

thread, 234,800 f.; rough castings, 1,366,308 fr. ;
bar iron and steel, 445,252 fr.; copper, 14,726 fr. ;
lead and brass, 52,672 fr. ; silver and gold, is bul-
lion and specie, 60,534 fr. (the amount imported in
the year 1858 of silver being 6,010,260 fr., and of
gold, 1,420,011 fr.) ; nitrates of potash and soda,
17,522 fr.; foreign sugar, 3,484,761 fr. ; sundries,
2,431,711 fr. The return of the movement of shipping
in the different ports of France during the 9 months
of 1858 and 1857 gives the following result:—Arrivals
in 1858 (French) : 8,146 vessels, 1,195,952 tons ;
(foreign) : 10,243, and 1,667,009. Departures
(French): 7,186 vessels ; 1,083,250 tons ; (foreign)
7,725, and 1,086,042.: In 1857, arrivals (French):
8,099 vessels, 1,222,402 tons; (foreign) : 19,804,
and 3,182,593. Departures (French) : 5,309 ves-
sels, 923,343 tons ; (foreign) : 6,830, and
1,046,129." Looking at the whole number of
arrivals it 1858, it will be found that they present
a falling•off of 1,415 vessels, as compared with 1857,
and that the freight has declined 319,342 tons ;
while for the departures the vessels show an aug-
mentation of 2,772, and the freight one of 199,820
tons.

The Constitutionnel contains the following :
" If we are well informed, the Minister of the
to the protection
In-
terior, desiring to facilitate international relations,
has given orders to the commissioners of police in

of the authorities, and not as a.cause of delay, or a
pretext for creating petty difficulties. On the
other hand, the Minister is examining at this mo-
ment the question whether, in order to facilitate
journeys abroad, it will not be right to authorise
the sub-prefects of the sea and land frontiers to
give, by delegation from the prefects, passports to
leave the French territory. These two measures
will be received, we doubt not, with the greatest
favour. It is worthy of the Government of the
Emperor to respond by this confidence to exagge-
rated attacks."
