PARIS, SUNDAY.
We read in the Moniteur the following warn.
ing:—

Some journals have prematurely announced
the fixing of the amount of dividend of certain
railway companies and of other industrial societies,
and have stated this dividend at a lower figure than
that which, at a later period, has been fixed by the
boa d of directors.

" Th: se are mana.;uvres against which .the in-
dustry and capital of the couetry ought to be pro-
tected. The conductors of journals here alluded
to have been sent for to the chambers of the Pro-
cureur Imperial of the tribunal of the Seine, and
warned that acts of this description will be here-
after referred to the tribunals, as constituting the
offence of publication of false news, contemplated
by the 15th article of the decree of the 17th of
February, 1852---' The mission of the press is to
enlighten the public,
not to deceive it.' "
The Emperor reviewed on Saturday, in the Court
of the Tuileries and the Place du Carrousel, nine
regiments of infantry of the line—the Ist, 52d,
74th, 82d, 84th, 85th, 91st, 98th, and 100th ; two
battalions of Chasseurs a pied, the 10th and 17th ;
the 14th regiment of horse artillery, and the Ist
regimant of foot artillery, which will shortly leave
the capital.
" The whole of the troops were commanded by
Marshai Magnan, having under his orders Generals
Foray and "Ulrich.
"The Emperor, after having passed along the
face of the lines, placed himself in front of the
Pavillion de l'Horloge, and presented with his own
hand the dccorations of the Legion of Honour and
military medals to the officers, sub-officers, and sol-
diers, who were introduced Lo him by the Minister
of War.

After the ceremony, the troops defiled iu admi-
rable order, amid cries of Vive l'Empereur

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, April 7.—Public attention is at the pre-
sent mo:nent exclusively occupied contemplating
events likely to grow out of the opening of the
Chambers to-morrow. °oval nment will take the
earliest opportunity of communicating to the
House the prolongation of the regency powers
now invested in the Prince of Prussia ; but
whereas, on the former occasions, the guardian-
ship of the State was conferred on the Prince
for three mouths only, those attributes will now
be extended for six mouths, beginning from the
23d of April. Government will also present the
country with an official report of the health of the
King. Tile rumours concerning the asserted pro-
posed interroga• ions to be made, either by the left
or the right of the Chambers, touching the regency
are without foundation. The condition of the
King is such as to preclude all hope of bi. ever again
being able to occupy himself with State affairs. The
proposed voyage to Italy is decidedly abandoned.
His Majesty will, as seo.o as the flue weather ap-
pears, go to Sans Soul, the Palace of Frederick
the Great, at Potsdam, where is expected to arrive
his sister, the Dowager Empress of Russia, towards
the end of May.
The Prussian Government has determined to
meet at its own cost the objections raised by the
other States interested to a stone bridge across the
Rhine at Cologne. It consents to have the level of
the bridge 53 feet above the average height of the
wat r, and to compensate the boatmen, without
imposing any toll.
The Augsburg Gazette of the 4th says—" A
rumour has been lately current of a plot having
been concocted against the life of the King of Prus-
sia. An individual presented himself a few days
for assassinating the King
ago to the chief of the railway station at Erfurt,
and stated that he had overheard two persons at
Gotha discussing a plan

director
of the Prussian
police, M. Stieber, went to Erfurt to question the
man ; but it turned out that his statement was a
gross fal-3ellood, and that his object in making it
was to get money."

A letter from St. Petersburgb, says :—Several
officers of the Russian navy have just been sen-
tenced to severe punishments for ma,lversation, d
an _
among them a Rear-Admiral.
