FRANCE.

PARIS, TUESDAY.

A letter from Rheims gives some further details
of the entry of
_their Majesties into that city
" The Emperor and Empress were accompanied by
a numerous suite, for whom fifty-two apartments
had been prepared in the Archbishop's Palace and
elsewhere. Their Majesties entered the city by the
Dieu-Lumiere gate, where M. Werle, the mayor,
and municipal authoritie swere in waiting to receive
them. On their" arrival the mayor approached the
Emperor and presented to his Majesty, on a golden
salver, the same keys of the city which had
been used on a similar occasion at the visit of
Charles VII. In presenting the keys the mayor
addressed his Majesty as follows :
" ' Sire,—We are happy to conform to ancient
custom, in presenting to your Majesty the keys
of our city and the homage of our fidelity. But a
duty, still more pleasing to perform, is that of ex-
pressing to you the feelingi of deep gratitude with
which the inhabitants of our city are inspired by
the visit you have deigned to make to it. Allow us
to particularly thank your august companion for
the great proof of interest which she has given to
us by responding with so much grace and kindness
to the wishes of the municipal council. The
presence of the Empress doubles for us the pleasure
of that of your Majesty, and our people will retain
an eternal remembrance of it. Eight years ago,
Sire, our gates were opened to receive you, and you
will soon hear repeated the acclamations which
then welcomed you. If, in 1850, the people hailed
you with enthusiasm as the hope of the country,
their plaudits will now be the still deeper felt, in ex-
pressions of gratitude and of admiration for the
wonders of your reign. We shall not now call to
mind all that your Majesty has done for the glory
and the prosperity of France. Our contemporaries
are well aware of it, and history will hand down
the facts to future generations. But in this city,
where so many Kings have demanded from religion,
for themselves and their descendants, the consecra-
tion of their rights to the Crown; in this city, with
the name of which are more especially connected
ideas of the hereditary rights of monarchy, we can
perhaps feel more strongly than elsewhere that
stability is necessary, and that the security of the
future must be guaranteed. We also comprehend
that when a dynasty becomes extinct or removed, the
nation does not the less feel the necessity of being
governed and protected against its own violent im-
pulses. If Providence then sends a man who by
the power of his genius and the energy of his will
re-establishes moral as well as material order, it is
not only the man of the moment whom it designs,
but also him of the future, and that man becomes
the elect of the people as he is the chosen of God.
It is thus that a new dynasty begins ; the hand of
God,is extended over it ; legitimacy exists, and we
hail in your Majesty the Napoleonian race. May
it reign for centuries over the country which is
already indebted to it for so much glory and so
much happiness. May the young Prince Imperial,
the object of your love, as he is of our devotedness
and of our dearest hopes, continue, after many
years, the work so gloriously commenced by your
Majesty. In order to be admired and cherished
by our children, he will only have to follow your
example and that of his august mother. 'Vive
rEmpereur ! Vive l'lmperatrice ! Vive le Princ e
Imperial !' " .
The Emperor briefly replied, and the cortege then
continued its way towards the cathedral, by the
Rues Barotte, Peirriere, and des Carreaux, the
Place Royale, the Place du Palais de Justice, and
the Rue de l'Universite. On either side of these
streets deputations, representing all the localities of
the department were drawn up with appropriate
banners. The different corporations of workmen
had also assembled, each bearing emblems of their
respective trades. The Agricultural Society had
erected a triumphal arch, formed of a mixture of
evergreens, fruit, and vegetables. Two cows were
placed as sentinels, one at either pillar of the arch,
while from the summit hung suspended several
wicker baskets, containing the denizens of the
poultry yard. On the arrival of their Majesties at
the cathedral, Cardinal Archbishop Goasset,
surrounded by his clergy, were in waiting to re-
ceive them.

incessantly of the numerical weakness of the Turks
(the Greek population of Turkey in Europe amounts
to eleven millions and a half, whilst the Mussulmans
hardly number four). I ought not to forget to say
that the Greeks and the Armenians who employ this
language are those who inhabit the capital, where
every one enjoys the fullest liberty. In the country
they are more circumspect, and on that very account
more to be feared. If an insurrection shouldbreak out,
it will not be, assuredly, at Constantinople, although
that is the place where people are most abusive. The
&els most likely to burst forth in Moldavia, or Wal-
lachia, where there is a greater degree of agitation. ,
Thence, the flame would rapidly extend to Servia,
Bosnia, Croatia, Montenegro, Thrace, Albania,
Macedonia, Thessaly, and Epirus. The Divan has
met several times, with a view, it is supposed, to
provide against these menacing eventualities which
people no longer know how to master, so much
inertness does there exist since the death of Reschid
Pacha. The Turkish Ministers beheld the arrival
of Lord Stratford de Redcliffe with satisfaction, as
they hope that the English diplomatist will help
them out of this deplorable difficulty, and that, in
case of a conflict, they may count on the energetic
aid of Austria, if not even of England, on condition
of making certain concessions to these Powers."

AMERICA.

The Vanderbilt, with three days' later advices
from New York, has arrived off Cowes.
The steamship Arabia, of the Cunard line, from
Liverpool on the 18th ult., arrived at New York on

The Indian troubles in Texas had assumed a for-
midable character. Late advices stated that the
Northern Camanches, Kiomas, and a part of the
Apaches, numbering in all 14 Indian bands, had
declared war against that State. According to the
latest indications, an army would soon be fully
employed in fighting the Indians.
A despatch from Mr. Lundy, the electrician re-
cently arrived at Trinity Bay from Valentia, to
Cyrus W. Field, Esq.,- had been just published,
stating that he hoped, by establishing a system of
unison between the two stations, to be able to get
signals through, the conductor not being broken,
and the defect being a loss of insulation 280 miles
from Valentia, and that he thought it possible, by
sending a certain kind of electricity, to improve
the insulation, and thus overcome the difficulty for
a time. _ _
