of Gcneral Robles, and displac ed bun, af 4),' which
he placed General Sales at the h?ad of the army,
and reinstated Zuloaga.

routed General Negrette, near Jalapa.

Mexican war schooner Iturbide had been captured

3,000 men.

FRANCE.

PARIS, SUNDAY.

The Empeior went to the Opera Comique last,
night. The escort, which was rather strong, con-
sisted of Cuirassiers. His Majesty left a little be-
fore 12 o'clock. There was a large attendance of
se;; de vile, and the crowd was kept back to
the side paths for some time before he left the.
Theatre. There was a considerable number of
people in the streets, owing, no doubt, to the
masked ball at the French Opera in the rue
Lep elletier.

The object of the visit of M. Latour d'Auvergne
to Paris is to take the Emperor's last instructions
on the question with Piedmont, where people are
getting impatient, and perhaps suspicious. There
is some rumour of his remaining here and taking.
the place of M. Walewski, and of General Niel
going to Turin.
A letter from Toulon, dated Friday last, an-
nounces the arrival in that port, on the 16th inst.,
of the Russian three-decker ship of war Sinope-4
name which reminds us of the surprise and destruc-
tion of the Turkish squadron and the massacre of
the crews by the Russian fleet of the Black Sea 111
the early part of the war.
