SARDINIA.

The Turin journals publish the text of the bill
presented to the Chamber of Deputies by M. Lanza,
Minister of Finance, for a sum of 500,000 fr. as the
marriage portion of the Princess Clotilde, and
which bill was voted at one and unanimously,
The measure merely sets forth the intended mar-
riage, and then declares that the sum mentioned is
that which is designated by Art. 24 of the Statuto
as the amount to be given to each of the King's daugh-
ters when about to be married. The said journals
declared that, in addition, the King had expended
on the trousseau for the bride a sum of 384,000 fr.
On the evening of the 26th King Victor Emma-
nuel, the Princess Clotilde, and Prince Napoleon
honoured the Theatre Scribe with their presence, to
witness the representation of "Le Roman d'un
Jeune Homme Pauvre." Their reception was
most enthusiastic.

PARIS, SUNDAY.

General Fleury, first equerry to the Emperor,
having been designated by his Majesty to proceed
_ _

to Marseilles to compliment the Princess Clotilde
on her arrival in France, has left Paris for that
destination. The Empress, on her side, has sent
there Mme. de Saulcy 'and Mine. de Sancy to at
company the young Princess to Paris. Six state
carriages and 12 footmen left Paris yesterday for
Marseilles. The entrance of the bridal party into
Paris is fixed for Thursday, amidst great military
pomp. The apartments which their Imperial
Highnesses are to occupy look out on the Place du
Palais Royal.
The Council of State is at present occupied with
the task of examining the budgets of the various
Ministries. M. Delangle, Minister of the Interior,
attended yesterday to give explanations relative to
the credits proposed for his department.
" It is rumoured on what appears to be good
authority," says a Paris letter in the Independance
of Brussels, " that Marshal Magnan will be nomi-
nated to the vacant post of Chancellor of the Legion
of Honour and that the Duke de Malalchoff will suc-
ceed him in command of the army of Paris. In
that case, Count de Persigny will return as Ambas-
sador to England, where he is much liked. His re-'
appointment to the London Embassy would be
considered a pacific symptom."
