(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)
PARIS, Sunday Evening.
There was a Cabinet Council yesterday at the
Tuileries. The Emperor presided, and the Empress
was present.

The Moniteur announces officially that the Em-
peror has received the letter which her Majesty the
Queen of Spain wrote to him upon the subject of
the attempted assassination on the 6th of June, and
also the answers of the Grand Duke of
Baden to the letters of recall of the Marquis de
Cadore, who was accredited as Envoy Extraordi-
nary and Minister Plenipotentiary of the Emperor
to his Royal Highness.

Prince Napoleon and the Princess Marie Clotilde
have returned to Paris from Italy. The newly-
married Duke and Duchess d'Aoeste are expected
in Paris in a few days. They will be the guests of
the Prince and Princess at the Palais Royal during
their stay.

The news of the attempt to assassinate the Em-
peror of Russia created a painful emotion at Genoa.
Similar feelings of horror and indignation were
excited at Milan and other parts of Italy.
The departure of the Prince and Princess Royal
of Saxony for Paris was to take place this day after
a grand review of the troops of the garrison, under
the command of Prince Albert. The Prince and
Princess adopt the travelling title of Count and
Countess de Plauen.

The Italian Chamber of Deputies has finished the
discussion of the budget for public works, and voted
a sum of 800,000 fr. to complete the Savona Rail-

The suite of the Sultan on his journey to Paris
will consist of Fuad Pacha, Minister of Foreign
Affairs; their Excellencies Djemel Bey, first cham-
berlain ; Kianail Bey, grand master of the ceremo-
nies ; Emin Bey, first secretary ; Asify Bey, chief
interpreter to the Divan ; six chamberlains, six supe-
rior officers, ten sub-officers, six gardes du corps
(silah chops), several interpreters and secretaries,
and about twenty servants in the service of his
Majesty and the Imperial Princes.
An interesting account has been received from
Vienna of the last moments of the unfortunate
Archduchess Matilda. The burns occasioned such
ravages all over the body that for a few days pre-
viously to her death, the Archduchess was almost
constantly in a bath, which materially soothed the
anguish. At five in the morning of her death, the
Archduke Albert, her father, approached her, and
she asked if she had slept during the night. The
father full of grief could only reply by asking the
same question of his daughter. She replied, " I
have been very tranquil during the night, and I feel
very weak." In one minute afterwards she heaved
a deep sigh and breathed her last. Dr. Schmer-
ling was the only witness of this touching scene.
The face of the Princess was unchanged from pain,
and there was no burn on the head. The next
day Dr. Rokitanski made a dissection of her body
and embalmed it. Both arms were terribly burnt,
the left was almost entirely consumed. There was
a large wound from the

She was of very fair complexion, and remarkably
beautiful.
Before the Emperor Alexander left Paris he
made gifts to the various charitable establishments
of the metropolis to the amount of one million of
francs. _

Queen Isabella the Second of Spain is expected in
Paris on the Ist of July. Her Majesty will stay at
Y go to the chateau of St. Cloud. On the day after her
Sainte-
Adresse to visit the Queen Mother of Spain.
One of the Paris papers states positively that
Majesty's arrival. she ill probably
Queen Victoria will shortly come and spend a few
days in Paris. Her visit will be a private one, it
says, and her Majesty will not relinquish her mourr -
ing attire, and consequently no fete will be given
on the occasion.
A letter from Rome states that, in aldition to
the present assembly of Bishops, there will this year
be an oecumenical council in that city. Since the
Council of Trent (101J-1a63) there have been
Provincial Councils, but not a single General

Turin, and has returned home to Periguex.
An International Peace Congress is to be held at
Geneva on the sth of September next.
Protests against the late attempt at assassination
are the order of the day. The Moniteur publishes
another list of places from whence congratulatory
addresses have been sent to the Emperor.
General Rybinski, the last of the Commanders-
in-Chief of the Polish army of 1831, has written a
letter energetically protesting against an insinua-
tion made in some quarters connecting the Polish
emigrants with the act of the assassin. The General
says :—" We are all soldiers of a holy cause, and
we all hold in equal horror the assassination of
Sovereigns and the assassination of people."
The Wiest, a St. Petersburgh paper, hints that
there is some identity of feeling between the Polish
emigrants and the assassin, and hopes that the effect
of the act will fall upon the Polish cause and its
protectors, and diminish the number of its ad-
herents.

The committee appointed to examine the musical
compositions sent to the Exhibition have not
deemed it proper to award any prize.
All the countries from whence products have been
sent to the Exhibition have used efforts to be repre-
sented as worthily and as efficiently as possible,
but there not having been sufficient room within
the Palace for some annexes have been constructed
in the Park. Thus the space for Bavaria at the
Exhibition of 1855 having been very limited, a
special building
has now been completed in the
Park for the works of Bavarian artists. The
Munich school, SO long celebrated, is now repre-
sented at the Exhibition by its most renowned
artists—Kaulbach, Piloty, Ramberg, Horebeet,
Fotby, A. Muller, Adam, Schwend, and Genelle.
The school of fine arts and manufactures of Nu-
remberg has displayed various remarkable produc-
tions, due to the pupils of its eminent director, M.
Kreli ng.
A shed has been erected close to the Exhibition,
where may be seen some interesting articles
connected with navigation. The steam apparatus
of the Friedland is set to work. The screw, which
is of immense proportions,
is separated from the
machine by a distance of 30 yards, but it transmits
the motive power, which is that of 180,000 kilo-
grammes. The iron casing has been very little in-
jured by
a ball weighing 2901b5. fired from a rifled
cannon
with 50Ihs• of powder. There are models
of various naval English machines and instruments,
and also models in relief of the
Wellington, 131,
the Marlborough, 131, and the Victoria, 121 guns.
The pleasure navigation boats are curious and
interesting-.
