FRANCE,

PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING,

.The project of law on the Bank of France,
which the Commission of the Legislative Corps had
resolved to reject unless the amendments it pro-
posed were accepted, is now certain to pass, the
Commission having considerably modified its op-
position. Had it not done so the °bombe
would have thrown its own Commission. ov,r-
board. This does not mean, however, that the
Deputies approved the projt et ; it means that
at this moment the Chamber will vote any-
thing the Government thinks proper to propose.
It is on the eve of dissolution, and the Deputies
have no notion of exposing themselves to th-
chances of not being accepted as Government can-
didates by any show of independence. The eager-
ness with which certain lii.Bll functionaries are
thrusting the project down the throat of the Com-
mission justifies the suspicion that some personal
interest is at stake. M. Parieu, Vice-President of
the Council of State, is no longer spoken of as the
future Governor of the Bank. M. Magne, Mi-
nister of Finance, is the person now spoken of as
reore likely to be the successor of Count d'Argout.
A letter from St. Petersburg, of the 17th, sass
" Count de Morny, who is about to leave, will pro-
bably carry to Paris the new treaty of commerce
concluded between France and Russia, and which
being signed only requires ratification. According
to the new regulations relative to passports,
foreigners arriving at Croustadt will receive gra-
tuitously a printed paper, setting forth all that they
require to know, and especially the formalities to
be observed to obtain a carte de sejour. At pre-
sent much greater respect is paid to travellers than
was shown in the last reign."
M. Duiniral, who was charged by the com-
mittee of the Legislative Body to draw up the
report on the bill on the Bank of France, hav-
ing declined to act as reporter, on the ground
that M. Buisson, one of his colleagues, and himself
formed the minority of the committee, M. Devinzk
was appointed reporter. The majority of the com-
mittee propose the adjournment of the bill, but
there appears to be a very strong probability that
it will be voted at once.
