CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
PARIS, Thursday Evening.
According to the appreciation of the Paris papers,
founded upon the despatches and private letters
from Italy, the return of Garibaldi to Caprera has
only had the effect of suspending the revolutionary
movement in the Pontifical States for a few days.
It appears that an insurrection has broken out in the
province of Viterbo. At Acquapendente the barracks
of the Pontifical gendarmes were besieged by a band
of insurgents. The Journal de Rome says that
armed bands had appeared at Canino and on seve-
ral other points of the Pontifical territory. Some
engagements had taken place between the insurrec-
tionists and the Pontifical troops. There were some
killed and wounded.

The Siecle, which appears to be well informed in
regard to news from Italy, has some remarks worthy
of attention upon the subject, but it always speaks
with a strong bias against the Pope. This preju-
dice, however, is not so strong as to induce it to dis-
close facts. The Siecle says :
The news of these events cannot fail to produce a
profound sensation in Italy. If the insurrection
should only be sustained for a few days, the Cabi-
net of Florence will, in spite of its resolution to
maintain the execution of the Convention of Sep-
tember, 1866, find it impossible to prevent young
Italy from rushing to the assistance of the Roman
patriots.

" The Florence journals announce that most of the
persons arrested in consequence of the manifes-
tations provoked by the arrest of Garibaldi have
been set at liberty. There is no doubt that the
others will also be set free.

" The Italic of Florence affirms that the Italian
Government has sent to its diplomatic agents in
foreign countries a note relative to the present posi-
tion of the Roman question in consequence of the
late events."

Ths Siecle then refers to the important corresl

traffic the section of the line from Flers to Vire, a
branch of the main line from Paris to Granville. A

few days ago, when the official inauguration took
place, the Bishop of Bayeux formally pronounced
his benediction upon the station, the engines, and
the carriages. The line, when finished, will traverse
a very picturesque portion of Lower Normandy.
A frightful murder has created consternation at
Lambersart, in the Department du Nord. A widow
lady named Lescan, aged 83, was assassinated in

her house on Sunday last. The assassin or assassins,
knowing that her children and servants were gone
to Mass, entered the house and cut her throat with
a knife. A sum of 500 f. and various portable
articles of value were carried away.

French barristers are sometimes rather facetious
and concise in their arguments. At a trial of an
Arab soldier, named Mohammed-on-Said, before
the Council of War at Algiers, the counsel for the

prosecution contented himself with a very few words
to the Court in support of the prosecution, and
finished by the remark—" Mohatntned-ou-Said has

his place reserved for him at 'the hulks. I hope,
gentlemen, that you will not allow it to be vacant.'

The counsel for the prisoner was equally brief.
lle said " Said is innocent, and the really guilty
man is beyond your power." The prisoner, who

was charged with various acts of swindling, was

convicted, and was sentenced to ten years hard
labour, a fine of 3,000 f., and the restitution of the

amount obtained by swindling.

Yesterday was a perfect summer day. The sun
shone uninterruptedly all day, not a cloud was to
be seen, and it was very warm, although the fields

were covered with frost early in the morning. To•
day the weather has veered round to winter. II
has been dull, cloudy, and very cold, with occa•

sional rain.

Two theatrical artists of some note have died
this week. The wife of M. Villaret, the tenor of
the Opera, who plays under the name of Mdlle.
Godfrend, and who was only married three mouths
ago, has succumbed after a short illness. Mdlle.

Eleonore has died very suddenly. She was at her

duties at the DelasseEnents C'orniques only a few

hours previously.
The monument erected to the Virgin Mary at
Sainte' Barbe, near St. Etienne, was inaugurated
on Sunday last by the Archbishop of Alby. It is
in the architectural style of the 13th century, and
is the work of Montagny.

ACCIDENT ON THE LANCASHIRE AND YORKSHIRE
RAILWAY.—MANCHESTER, Thursday.—The roof of a por-

tion of the ki u lama of a tunnel on the Lancashire and York-
shire Railway fell in this afternoon, blocking the up lino
of rails. Fortunately beyond impeding the traffic no acci-
dent has occurred.

pondence from Florence in the Moniteur, to which
I alluded yesterday, and dissents from the opinion
formed by some of the Paris papers that it indicates
a disposition on the part of the French Government
to revise the Convention of September. "As to
the feeling of the French Government," adds the
Siecle, " the report, not denied, of another expedi-
tion to Rome, in the case of a serious insurrection
against the Pontifical Government, does not allow
of any illusion upon the subject. It is strongly
insisted and believed that the French Government
is determined to maintain the temporal power of
the Pope." Of course the Siecle disapproves of this
determination, but it is supported by almost all the
other Paris journals.
The President of the Reichstag has left Berlin
for the chateau of Hohenzollern, where the King of
Prussia is now residing, to remit to his Majesty the
address recently voted by the Reichstag. The
arrival of the delegates, charged with the discussion
of the project of law for postal reform, was ex-
pected.
The King of Saxony has left Pilnitz, and is now
at Weesenstein.
The railway from Warsaw to Terespol will
shortly be opened for traffic. This line, which tra-
verses a distance of 192 " werstes," will hereafter be
prolonged to the Southern provinces of the Empire
of Russia. At present it is chiefly important,
because it places Warsaw in direct communication
with the strong fortress of Brzecs on the Bug.
One of the attractions of the fair at St. Cloud,
which has just terminated, was an exhibition of rats
by a man named Antoine Leonard, who is well
known in Paris by the • appellation of the
" Ratman." He has discovered the secret of
taming rats, and has taught them some
curious gymnastic exercises. The rats are as docile
as a dog, and seem to understand what the man
says, for they obey at his, directions. One of the
rats is getting grey with age. He has had it in his
possession for eleven years. When Leonard takes
this rat from his pocket, and pretends to run away,
the animal runs after him and caresses him. Two
years ago an Englishman was so delighted with this
rat that he offered a good deal of money for it.
The ratman, however, said he would not sell his old
boarder, which was the only friend he had in the
world.
The vintage in the villages around Paris is nearly
concluded. The produce is somewhat less than the
average. The wine of these localities is of rather
inferior quality, and is sold at a cheaper rate. It
will not keep, and is generally consumed during the
season. The ordinary quantity produced each year
in the various districts is, at Sannois, 60,000
pieces. (The piece or barrel of wine contains
about 300 bottles). At Corneilles, 8,000 pieces.
At Suresnes, 15,000 pieces. The Suresnes wine is
considered the best of all the wine produced in the
localities contiguous to Paris. Rueil, 5,000 pieces.
Sartrouville, 4,000. Les Carrieres St. Denis, 5,000.
St. Ouen, 3,000. Stains, 3,000. Epinay sur Seine,
3,000. The hills of Montmorency and environs,
9,000. In some years this wine is sold at three to
four sous the bottle.

THE PAPAL STATES.

PARIS, Oct. 4

The .Moniteur of this morning says :.—" The
measures which have been adopted by the Italian
Government to protect the Pontifical frontier
against the entry of hostile bands have, up to
the present, afforded the best results, and are
still being rigorously maintained. Notwithstand-
ing the strictest surveillance, a few agitators suc-
ceeded in introducing themselves into the Papal
States—notably at Acquapendente and Loriano—
where, after assembling together, they attempted
to raise disorder ; but, having b:)en encountered
by some detachments of Pontifical troops, whose task
was facilitated by the attitude of the inhabitants, the
insurgents were promptly defeated and dispersed.
The most complete tranquillity has not for one
instant ceased to reign at Rome, and the general
state of the public mind is most satisfactory."
FLORENCE, OCT. 3, Eveni❑g.

The Opinione of this evening says :—" Our intel-
ligence from the Papal frontier announces that
Acquapendente was yesterday retaken by the Pon-
tifical troops. They also captured sonic of the
insurgents, others taking refuge in Italian territory.
Several localities in the province of Viterbo are,
however, still overrun by bodies of the insurgents,
and the inhabitants show themselves undecided,
seeing the movement yet undeveloped. The rumour
that disturbances have taken place at Rome is de-
void of foundation."
