whether the citadel of Havre, which the munici-
pality wants to have demolished, but whieli LLB
military engineers think very important in a de
fensive point of view, is to remain or not. His
Majesty will return to Paris at 11 this morning.
A person who has just returned to Paris from a
tour in the south of France speaks of the large
sums spent in fortifying the islands of Hyeres.
There are four of these islands, lying near the en-
trance of the bay—namely, Porquerolles, Portgros,
Bagneau, and Ile du Titan. On these islands the
engineers have been busily occupied for some time.
A sum of 750,000 f. is spent in putting Porquerolles
and Portgros, which is the smallest of the four, in
excellent condition, and completing its four forts,
and 350,000 f. on other works, as if an attack were
expected. The same person reports that there is a
strong feeling of dissatisfaction in the South at the
evacuation of Syria by the French troops, and cor-
responding ill-feeling to England, to whom the
evacuation is attributed, it being of course lost sight
of that when the French Government signed the
Convention fixing the sth of June they meant to
observe it. But this is not the only subject for dis-
satisfaction. In some places the feeling of the clergy
on the Imperial policy in the Roman States is so
strong that the Salvwn fac Domine is omitted to be
chanted at the mass. My informant also speaks of
the commercial distress prevailing in those parts,
and of the alarm caused by the continued drought,
which has already done much injury to the crops
and to the vines. In several of the Southern de-
partments the clergy have been ordered by the
bishops to offer up daily prayers for rain.
Another instance of the liberality of the Govern-
ment. M. Dummeray, the publisher of the Due
d'Aumale's pamphlet, in addition to his six months'
imprisonment and 6,000 f, fine, is to be consigned to
ruin. An order of the Prefect of Pollee has been sent
him, withdrawing his licence, and ordering him
immediately to close his establishment. M. Beau,
the printer, has also been deprived of his licence. It is
worth remarking, that this is the first instance of the
application of such a rigorous measure. M. Billault,
whom no on e can charge with over-tenderness for the
press, never ventured upon such an arbitrary exer-
cite of power. It was reserved for M. de Persigny,
that enthusiastic admirer of English liberty, to carry
persecution to an extent unprecedented even under
the Empire. The Patrie, however, assures its rea-
ders that the measure is strictly legal—" It has
taken place in fulfilment of the 12th article of the
law of October 21st, 1814, which provides that the
license may be withdrawn from printers and book-
sellers after the correctional conviction, no- matter
on what charge." It adds—" M. Beau had under-
gone five condemnations in the correctional courts,
and M. Dummeray two."
