CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS.

(FROII OUR, OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
PARIS, Sunday Evening.
Information has been received in Paris from
Florence that General Garibaldi, having manifested
the desire to return to Caprora, the Government,

having a similar wish, immediately gave the requisite
permission. General Garibaldi has therefore left
the fortress of Alessandria, in which he was con-

fined after his arrest, and proceeded to Geneva,

where he was received on board a Government yes-

sel and conveyed to Caprera. The account does not
say that Garibaldi promised to renounce his absurd
attempt upon Rome, but as this was the stipulation
previously mentioned it is supposed that he did so,
and, therefore, all fear of further insurrectionary
movements against Rome may be supposed to be at
an end, at least for the present. The Italian Go-
vernment intends to summon the Parliament with-

out delay, and will ask the consent of the Chamber
to a bill of indemnity for all the measures it adopted
in reference to this Garibaldian mischievous, but
impotent and foolish, attempt.
The Charge d'Affaires of France at Rome has

exchanged with his Excellency the Cardinal Secre-
tary of State, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the
Roman States, the ratifications of the treaty of
commerce recently concluded between France and
the Pontifical Government.

The King of Prussia has left the Grand Duchy
of Baden for the island of Mainau, on Lake Con-
stance, where are assembled the Grand Ducal family
of Baden, in order to be present at the fête of the
Queen of Prussia, which will be celebrated in a few
days. The Queen of Prussia has also left Baden for
Mainau.

The Turkish Government has just granted to a
Belgian Company the concession of the railways
from Constantinople and Adrianople to Belgrade,

and from Enos to Varna, and from Salonica to
Nisso. The works upon all the lines will be pro-
ceeded with immediately. _

Dr. Vernon, formerly deputy and for some years
chief editor of the Constitutionnel, died on Friday
night, after a long illness. His medical attendants
had no hope for some days previously.
The death of another literary man is also an-
nounced—that of M. Ernest Hollander, the founder
of the journal La Situation. M. Hollander died
from pulmonary consumption. He was about 40.
The official accounts relative to the produce of
the vines in Macon and the Beaujolais aro to the
effect that it will be deficient to the extent of two-
thirds of the average. The hail, frost, and oidium
did great injury, but it was very partial, as in some
districts the vines were uninjured. As a general
statement, although the quantity of wine in the
Maconais and Beaujolais will be small, it will be
of superior quality.
An Italian journal of influence pretends to know
upon the best authority that Garibaldi had no in-
tention to invade the Roman States unless the sub-
jects of the Pope revolted against him. It adds

that Garibaldi only intended to make a little tour
of inspection for the present.
A most important incident connected with the
progress of agriculture in France has just taken
place at Petit Bourg, a large farm belonging to M.
Decanville, senior, near Fvey-sur• Seine. M. De-
canville is at the head of the agriculturists of France.
With a view to the solution of a great agricultural

problem, M. Leeonteux, The editor of L'Agriculture
Pratique, organised a subscription to pay for the
expenses connected with it, and it took place on
M. Decanville's farm in the presence of several

thousand persons, who all exhibited the most intense
interest in it. There has hitherto been great pre■
judice in France against the steam-plough, but
these experiments gave such entire satisfaction that
all doubt as to the practical success of the steam-
plough is now removed. This result is justly con-
sidered as the most important of any ever
obtained in reference to agriculture in France.
To English agriculturists the success must be
considered as very striking, because it sup-

ports the prestige of England in favour of her
agricultural machinery. The trials are fully re-
corded in the Journal d'Agriculture Pratique, which

does. full justice in its estimation of English pro-
gress, and with great impartiality notices the results
of the famous Newcastle plough of Messrs. Ran-

somes and Sims of Ipswich, and recalls to recollec-
tion that at the experiments made in June, 1864,
under the auspices of the Royal Agricultural So-
ciety of England four out of thefive prizes awarded
were given to it. However, as practice is better
than theory, it should be stated that at Petit Bourg
experiments were first made to give the French
agriculturists a perfect idea of the English system of
ploughing, and afterwards another plough was ex-
hibited, in order to show the mode of turning fur-
rows according to the French system. The
earth was turned over in the same manner as
by the French ploughs of Brabant and Grig-
non. The work was performed to the entire
satisfaction of the vast body of agriculturists pre-
sent, including the leading men connected with this
branch of art and industry in France. Experiments
were then made with the turn-wrest plough of Ran-
some and Sons, which were so effective in their
operation that the field was a scene of great excite-
ment. The light English ploughs by the same
manufacturers were then worked by French
labourers, who all declared that they were lighter
and more easy to handle than any of the French
ploughs manipulated on the same day. This decla-
ration of the French workmen was made sponta-
neously, in order that a clear and impartial judgment
should be formed. Upon the whole, the great result
was obtained of removing the doubts hitherto en-
tertained by French agriculturists on the subject.
Some admirable work was performed also by the
steam ploughs. The work done by Fowler's
double ten-horse implement was admitted to be
the best ever witnessed, although cheap. Messrs.
Howard, of Bedford, did not have a fair chance
of showing the capabilities of their system of steam
ploughing, owing to the delay in the arrival of one
of their engines required for their double system of
steam culture, which was detained by the railway.
They, however, did some good work with their
round-about system, driven by one of Messrs.
Garrett's portable engines, but they could not com-
pete with Messrs. Fowler's large cultivator and
eight-furrow plough in quantity of land cultivated
or ploughed per hour.
The operations at Petit Bourg have contributed
materially to strengthen the entente cordiale between
that important class, the English and French agri-
culturists, and the experiments were concluded in
characteristic English style by a good dinner, at
which the most friendly feeling was mutually dis-
played. In short, this great international mani-
festation will tend very materially to " speed the
plough" both in France and in England.
A very extraordinary trial for murder will
take place next mouth before the Court of
Assize of the Dordogne. The accused, a boy
only 15, named Leymaric, is alleged to have
committed the crime in a very artful and methodical
manner. The victim, M. Delbos, a man of fortune,
lodged in the house of the father and mother of the
boy. Ile occupied two rooms under a barn, to which
free access was allowed to the boy. In the month
of May the prisoner stole some money from Mr.
Dubois, for which the latter reproved him. Those
reproaches engendered a feeling of hatred on the
part of the boy towards the deceased. He bought
a circular chopper, asking at the time if it would
cut a man's head off, and in the absence of the de-
ceased lie removed a board from the ceiling, and

placed the chopper in a box overhead. At night '
he went into the barn, and when the deceased was
asleep, he went down into his room from the ceil-
ing, and inflicted such wounds on the chest and
neck that M. Dalbos died in great agony in a few
hours, but was able to point out the assassin before
his death. In order that there could he no trace of
blood on his clothes the boy left them outside near
a pond in which he bathed, in order to remove the
stains of blood from his person.
The weather continues cold and stormy. The
autumnal equinox, which commenced last Monday
afternoon, displayed itself with unusual violence
in Paris for two days, and its intensity bas been
only diminished partially. The storm bas been still
more violent in the southern basin of the Rhone.
At Valence, Nesvies, and other towns in the south
of France, chimneys were blown down, trees up-
rooted, and houses unroofed. The trains between
Lyons and Marseilles were delayed for some hours.
The swallows in numerous flights have taken their
departure from Paris for the south. Between Avig-
non and Marseilles the wind was terrific. Addi-
tional locomotives were attached to the trains or
they would have been entirely stopped.
Accounts have been received in Paris of a terrible
fire at the French colony of St. Pierre Mequeton.
Three hundred houses have been destroyed, but
there has not been any loss of life. It was only
two years ago that a similar disaster occurred in the
colony.
The French papers in their notices of the Exhi-
bition institute a searching comparison between the
English and French furniture, and the result of their
inspection, in which I quite agree, is that the French
furniture is the most beautiful and artistic, but it is
more expensive. The English furniture is cheaper
and more useful, as it does not comprise so many
mere articles of fancy. These journals point out a
piece of furniture, manufactured by M. Grohe, as
the most beautiful in the Exhibition. It was made
expressly for the Empress. M. Groh6 did not,
however, compete for a prize, as he has already ob-
tained the highest prizes both in Paris and in
London.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ATTACK ON A CONSTABLE BY SOLDIERS WITH THEIR
BELTS.—About 20 minutes past 12 on Saturday night a
constable named John French, 569 A, on duty at the
Marble Arch, was most violently attacked by three soldiers.
It appears that French had just closed the gate at the
Arch when the soldiers walked up and demanded that the
gate should be opened. French refused to open the gate,
upon which one of the soldiers got over the gate, and
called out to his companions to follow his example.
This they did, and they then all throe commenced
a most furious attack on the constable, striking him about
the head and face with their belts, inflicting most severe
wounds. Another constable coming up, and seeing Frenc
on the ground and the soldier beating him, rushed up and
struck one of the soldiers with his truncheon. The soldiers
then made off, and the constable followed one of them some
distance, but, being called back by French to assist him,
they succeeded in escaping for the present.
French was taken to tho St. George's Hospital, where
ho remains in a dangerous state.
