PARIS, FRIDAY EVENING.
The Regency Privy Council met to-day. There
was perhaps more than one matter to ba taken into
consideration, but the principal point was that of
the Italian prisoners under sentence of death in the
prison of the Riquette. The Council opposed any
commutation of punishment for several reasons,
namely, ►he number of victims killed, wounded, or
disabled for life by their crime. If any life be
spared, it is that of De Rudio. It is contended
that this man acted in all probability under re-
straint, or rather under menace, and it is remem-
bered that, on a former occasion, he was wounded
with a poignard for what his fellow-conspirators
no doubt called weakness or cowardice,
but which he would term remorse. The execution
is said to be fixed for to-morrow morning at day-
break, and two only, namely, Orsini and Pierri,
will mount the scaffold. The wife of Da Rudio,
with her child, has been in Paris for some days. ,
The effect produced by the pamphlet "Napo-
leon 111. et l'Angicterre" on the public gener-
ally is favourable. It is undeniable, however,
that the great body of the people, whose well-being
chpends on peace and amity with England, and
who, notwithstanding all appearance to the con-
trary, would consider a rupture as one of the
greatest calamities that could befall the country,
are well pleased with the continuance of friendly
relations of which the brochure gives assurance.
It is stated as a fact that the resumption of the
Conspiracy to Murder Bill is not demanded by this
Government. The Emperor, it is said, Bets too
high a value on maintaining friendship and alliance
with England to insist on a measure which con-
cerns himself personally, and which is thought to be
distasteful to the English people. He perhaps also
believes that, even if passed under such circum-
stances as the present, it would hardly be ever
executed, and the feeling in England might be oue
of coldness and estrangement, with little or no com-
pensation.
The accounts of Prince Jerome's health this even-
ing are not encouraging. Ho is suffering under a
very severe attack of influenza, and, at his age, this
is rather serious.

The Moniteur says :—" The indirect revenues of
the month of February exceed those of the corre-
sponding month of 1857 by 2,251,000 f., and if it be
taken into account that the second decime on regis-
tration dues has ceased to exist since the beginning
of the present year, the improvement is in reality
4,269,000 f. The month of January had shown an
amelioration of 2,100,000 E, so that the increase for
the two months amounts to 6,369,000 f."
Tii e'Phare tie la Loire, says :—" Two shells found
at NLtussave have been deposited at the parquet of
Aix. They appear to be of a similar manufacture
to those used on Jan. 14, but the screws are
different."
