THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The second article of the electoral law, depriving
all electors of the suffrage who have not lived in the
same domicile for three years, was passed yesterday.
By this clause, if the PRESIDENT of the Republic were
to remove to Versailles, he would lose his vote ; every
young man who marries, and quits his father's house,
is by this clause disfranchised for three years, as is
every workman, for the same period, who quits one
master to enter into the service of another. The idle,
the skulking, the sloth, who vegetates in his native
village, his body the property of his landlord, his
soul the slave of his priest, has the - franchise ;
while the industrious, the striving, the enterprising,
the man who quits his native village to better his
condition, is deprive:l of it. M. TIIIERE, had this
clause been always the law, would never have had
the franchise until long after the time he became Mi-
nister of State.

It is said that General CHANGARNIER having been
called on by the PRESIDENT of the Republic to offer
explanations as to his conduct in ordering the colonels
of regiments to take orders only from himself; and to
disobey any they might receive from the nun-
DENT of the Republic or the Minister of
War, protested his fidelity to the PRESIDENT,
and entered into divers explanations, to w hich
the PRESIDENT listened with great calm-
ness ; at the conclusion General D'HAUTPOUL
was sent for, and withdrew his resignation of the
Ministry of War, although there is still a coolness be-
tween himself and CHANGARNIER.
111. NAPOLEON BONAPARTE had an interview with
his cousin, the PRESIDENT, on Monday, and repre-
sented to him the danger he was placing himself in
by surrounding himself with Legitimatists and Or-
leanists, who were enemies to the very name of
Bonaparte ; he more particularly alluded to the
Praetorian band of General CHANGARNIER, who has
recently selected 5,000 men, devoted to his person as
a Gendarmerie Mobile, and suggested that CHANGAR-
NIER should at once be got rid of at all risks, and an
appeal made to the country on the electoral law.
The PRESIDENT admitted the difficulties and the dan-
gers which had been pointed out, but was silent on
the subject of the course to be adopted. It is gene-
rally known that the PRESIDENT disapproves Of the
electoral law, but submits to it as a measure forced
on him by the majority.
The National says—" A letter from the Comte DE
CHAMBORD, solicited by 111. BSRRYER, orders the
ft,udatories of legitimacy to obey the injunctions of
the commission of the seventeen. The son of the
prisoner of Blaye orders his faithful subjects to place
themselves under the orders of M. Tunas."

It is said that a coop tritat will be attempted on
the passing of the electoral law, and that the present
Assembly will declare itself competent to revise the
Constitution ; that a stringent law on the press will
he introduced, and that the stringency of the passport
law will be greatly increased.
A Cabinet Council was held yesterday on the state
of relations with England ; a warm discussion en-
sued, no decision was conic to, but the opinion in
favour of a return to good relations with Eng-
land seemed to prevail. It is said that General DE
LAIIITTE will h'.2 transferred to the War Department,
his " crass " ignorance of the ordinary usages of
diplomacy rendering him utterly unfit for his present.
appointment.
The Assembly was yesterday occupied in the dis-
cussion of the third article of the electoral law.

been presented to King BOMBA from Lord PALmErts-
TOY, demanding 300,0001. as a compensation for
damages done to British property during the bom-
bardment of Messina. King BOsma, it is said, offered
half the money down, and to convert the other halt
into a public debt. The English Minister consented
on condition that the debt should be recognized by

Chambers will have nothing to do with it," said the
KING, "as I shall abolish the Constitution and be
absolute master in my kingdom."

QUEEN'S BENCII.-(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings in Banco, before Lord CAbIPBF:LL and Justices

PATTESON, COLERIDGE, and ERLE.)

TILE QUEEN V. TUE CALIMONIAN RAILWAY COMPANY

This case was part heard during lat Easter Term,
and at the suggeaton of the Court it was postponed in
order to enable the parties to settle the matter in die-
pute between themselves, if they could. The real plain-
tiffs are the corporation of the city of Carlisle, and the
matter at issue between them and the Caledonian Rsil-
way Company is, that the company, in carrying the rail-
way into the city of Carlisle, had departed materially from
their plans and sections, which they deposit2d with Par-
liament, especially at a place called Irish Gate Brow, in
the vicinity ( f Carlisle, whereby they had greatly marred
the beauty and convenience of one of the principal ap-
promhes to that city.
Mr. MARTIN this morning reminded the Court that
the case stood over from last term to afford the parties
an opportunity of coming to an arrangement, and scat 1d
that the parties wero to hare a final meeting on Thursday
next, and he hyped their Lordships a ould not be troubled
again with it.
Lord CAMPBELL said it would have saved the Court
much trouble if that intimation had been given to them
sooner, tecause they bad given a very great deal cf time
to the consideration of this very complex ea,e, which
they might have been spared had they known that it
was to be withdrawn from the court.

Mr. Beard, clerk to the plaintiff, proved the defen-
dant's handwriting. The not) was payable by instal-
ment» of 1/. per month, and one instalment had tesn paid.
A verdict was given for the amount.
This was the only case.

SURREY SESSIONS.—(THIS DAY.)
Barclay, a tall, fashiontibly-dressed young
woman, surrendered to team her trial for stealing at
Newington a gold batch and elude, from the person of
William Gimber.

Mr. Pape prosecuted; and Mr. Charnock defended
the prison: r.

Prosecutor slated that he was a florist, and resided at
Windsor. On the evening of the 6th of May he went to
the Surrey TLeatre, and as he was leaving that place he
met the prisoner, who entered into conversation with
him. They afterwards proceeded to a house in the
neighbourhood, where they partook of some refresh-
ments, when he took his watch from his waistcoat pocket
and placed it on the table, prior to winding it up. The
prisoner suddenly snatched it up and ran out of theroom,
and would have quitted the house had rot the land-
lady seized hold of her, and kept her until witness
called in a pace constable, and gave her into custody.
The watch was given to him by his Royal Highness
Prince Albert two years ago, as a reward for some roots
which he had cultivated and brought into perfection.
In cros4 examination by Mr. CHARNOCK, the prosecutor
stated that he had been drinking when he met the
prisoner, and he was positive that he never gave her the
watch fir certain favours. It was Prince Albert's, and
it was not likely that ho should part with that.
In defence, Mr. CIIARNOCK. contended that the pro-
secutor was intoxicated, and being without money he
gave Prince Albert's watch to the prisoner as a security
for being paid on a future occasion.

The jury found the prisoner Guilty, and
The COURT sentenced her to six months' hard labour
at Brixton.

MARLBRO'-STREET.—(THIS DAY)
STEALING A GOLD WATCH,—Bkoda Riley was placed
before Mr. Bingham charged with stealing a gold
watch, value 15/., the property cf Mr. William Myer,
54, Wardour-street, Soho.

It appeared, from the evithnce, that about two o'clock
this morning the prosecutor was proceeding along Lisle-
street, on his way home, ‘i hen vie prisoner, who ap-
peared to be very tipsy, went tip to him and asked him
to see her home to her lodgings in Ryder's-court, as she
was too drunk to walk there alone. From motives of
humanity he complied with her request, and on arriving
at the door of the house in which she lodged he felt
something snap, and on his putting his hand to his
waistcoat pocket he missed his watch. He immediately
caught hold of the prisoner and took the watch from
her right hand. A friend of prosecutor's, who happened
to pass at the time, fetched a constable, and the prisoner
was given in charge.

The prisoner, who is an old offender, was committed
for trial.

IIONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK

The salz.,a cf Cotten et Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 7,000 bales, of which 1,000 Americ;n, 400
Perham and Marinham, and 1,000 Surat, were taken for
export, and 1,000 American arid 500 Surat ou specula,-
don. The market closed tirmly,—ln Railway Shares
there was a decided improvement in the quotations.
This being the '` Derby day," there are no public sales
cf Colonial Produce in Mincing-lane.
The Stamp Duties Bill is opposed in the City as
strorgly as ever, and the plan that seems in most favour
is an uniform charge of one-half per cent. on Transfers
Shares,of &c. The London Stock Exchange Committee,
in their memorial to Parliament, state very fairly that
the shares of public companies, although for all pur-
poses of conveyance they arc treated as real property,
are yet iA the event of death brought under the deno-
mination of personal property, and, as such, mace
liable to probate and legacy duties. A decided reduc-
tion of the existing imposts would, as they contend, be
in better accordance with the present economical policy
which recognises the rule that extreme rates of duty
defeat the object intended, whereas under the new Bill
there would re a positive increase of 60 per cent.,
taking the average of the stamps now in use.
It is felt as a Particular hardship that railway shares
which pass so frequently from hand to hand, should be
subjected to an augmented tax, end we have little hesi-
tation in asserting that not one-half the speculation,
and consequent ruin to individuals, would have arisen
if the hod fide purchase of shares were accelerated.
Ass are trim there is great expense as well as some delay
and trouble in making an actual transfer, people sell for
time, trusting to the chapter of accidents to bring down
the market value of the property which they wish to
depreciate. If a mere nominal stamp were required,
the acceptance of shares by real purchasers would be so
constant as to give an immense amount to the revenue,
and uniformity of charge would be all important. The
new stamp is quite opposed to recent legislation in other
matters, being restrictive, not relaxing.
The Continents.' advices are tolerably favourable. At
Amsterdam there was a firm market for Dutch Two-
and-a-Half per Cents., which were 55 3-16. Spanish
Bonds wore louver. At Frankfort, on the 25th lust,
Austrian Metallics were 76.&.
