THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 13, 1850.

'HIE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

Wo have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
Additional particulars are given by them of the
incidents which marked the recent journey of the
PRESIDENT to and from St. Quentin—all indicating
the aff..ctionate enthusiasm evinced fur him by the
population.
When distributing the livrets to the workmen of
that town Louis NAPOLEON thus addressed them, his
words being greeted with acclamations :
" I am happy to find myselt in the midst of you, and
I seek with pleasure for those opportunities which place
me in contact with the great and generous people which
elected me, for my most sincere and most devoted friends
ate not in palaces, they are under the thatched roof;
they are not in gilded halls, but in the workshops, on
Vie public place, and in the country. 1 feel, as the Em-
-I,eror said, that the fibres of my heart respond to yours,
and that. we have the same instincts and the same inte-
rests. Persevere in the honest and industrious pith
which leads to comfort, and let these livrets, which I
am pleased to offer to you as a feeble mark t,f my sym
pathy, remind us of the too shut t sojourn which I made
amongst you."
Before leaving S Quentin the Prince proceeded
in the midst of the tiring of cannot, and beating of
drums, and ringing of bells. to the superb cathedral,
where, at the foot of the high altar, he was met by
the Bishop of SoissoNs, arrayed in full canooicals.
That ecclesiastical dignitary then addressed him as
follows

country
o othn
neur,—You
'`Monsieur le President,—lt was worthy your high
character, and the sentiments which distinguish you, nut
to wish to leave this town, whet e you have received so
many proofs of afflctienate inpathy, without offering
up a prayer to by whom those govern who have
been invested wish the glorious mission of renderieg
nations happy. This act of faith, Monsieur le President.
honours you personally, and also honours the religion
the interests of ehich you well defend. It will be fur
guarantee of happiness. What
gFarregreatera
r renwaarddlictainntal there be for a heart so thoroughly
French as your;, and which every day makes such noble
address the PRESIDENT replied,—
m gefforts to secure the moral and social welfare of our fiuo
have interpret td my sentiments,
and I thank you for it. With you I admit that the power
of religion is indispensabte to consolidate the welfare of
the country. I am happy that my efforts receive your
blessing, and I begyou to intercede with 'leaven for their
success. '
After the conclusion of the religious service the
PRESIDENT went in his carriage to visit the different
manufactories, where he found the workmen at their
labours, and-was received by them with the warmest
marks of sympathy. At ten o'clock the PRESIDENT
proceeded to the railway terminus in the midst of a
dense crowd of people. From a house situated at
the extremity of the Faubourg, and which was noted
as the head-quarters of the demagogues and the Reds,
some cries were attempted similar to those heard on
the eve of the review; but they wore soon drowned
in those of "Vive Napoleon," " Vive le President,"
" Vive l'Empereur !" The train started amidst salvos
of artillery, and cries, a thousand times repeated, of
" Vive Napoleon."
Having arrived at the Fernieu station, the PRESI-
DENT, accompanied,by his brilliant suite, and attended
by his aide-de-camps, diverged in carriages to La
Fere, where he was welcomed with loud cheers and
cries of " Vive Napoleon !" in the streets, and after-
wards entertained at a sumptuous dejeuner at the
Maisie. At the conclusion of the repast, the Mayor
of La Fere addressed the President of the Republic
as follows :
" The President of the R=public has permitted me to
express to-.bite the wishes which our population have
charged "me to make known. May you, Monsieur le
President, accomplish the high mission which the whole
country has confided to you. May you restore confi•
dance and union to our country. May you consolidate
eur new institutions, and secure with them the grandeur
and the prosperity of France. If this work is immense,
it belongs to you to accomplish it with the loyal co-
operation of all good citizens. Your presence in the
midst of us gives us an opportunity of offering you
ours, and rely oa it that it shall not fail you."
The PRESIDENT replied as follows:
" Gentlemen, I am happy, before quitting the depart-
ment of the Aisne, to pass a few memetits with you, to
thank you for the welcome you have given me. This de-
partment, in fact, contains all the elements of prosperity
which a French heart can desire; these elements will
never fail. I have visited, yesterday and to-day , a town
illustrious for its manufactures and its commerce,
and now I see another town which has been always dis-
tinguished fur its excellent military spirit. In the same
Way that religion seeks to propagate the; faith by honour-
ing its martyrs does this town honour itself by preserving
its military spirit and traditions. We will also propa-
gate the traditions of honour and glory of which this
,own guards the sacred deposit. It is for that reason
that I propose a toast to the town of LI are. where the
remembrance of those who have died for the country,
and who serve as an example to the living, is always
honoured. I give you—' To the town of La Fare, where
are formed those sentiments- and that military spirit
which are alwma dear to truly patriotic hearts. To the
,own of La "
This toast was drunk with immense ap?lauso.
Throughout the whole of the PRESIDENT'S excur-
' 4ion the peasantry seemed to exult in the privilege of
ejaculating that name which is cherished under the
thatch, that greeting which has been sanctified by so
many glorious recollections. At St. Quentin, at
ereil, at Yontoise, at Chaunay, sat Compeigne, at Fer-
nieu, at La Fere, the favourite cry was everywhere,
't Vive Napoleon !"
The artisans were equally as enthusiastic as the
peasantry.
At Cnaunay more than six hundred workmen em-
ployed in the refineries, preceded by a flag, filed off
before the PRESIDENT, with cries a thousand times
repeated of " Vive Napoleon !" On the PRESIDENT
arriving at Saint Quentin,
an old soldier of the
Empire presented him with a silver cup, which he had
received frotn the Emperor NAPOLEON as a reward
fur some striking act of bravery.
A beautiful token of the goodness of heart and
magnanimity of the PRESIDENT of the Republic has
just been brought to light by the conversation ex-
cited regarding the journey of M. TRIERS to see the
Count DE NEUILLY. It is said that the Prince ex-
pressed great satisfaction at the recent visit paid him
at the Elysee by M. TRIERS prior to his departure
for England, and conveyed through that gentleman
the expressions of his personal sympathy and
regard for the Orleans family. Nor, is this de•
(Aeration of sympathy merely hollow compliment,
seeing that from the day when LOUIS NAPOLEON
came into power he has been full of attention to the
exiles, and has personally directed the transmission
of the private moveable property belonging to them.
He has even gone so far as to take a direct interest
in the steps which were taken by an adherent of
LOUIS PHILIPPE to save some of his real property
from the depreciation with which it was threatened.
Louis PHILIPPE has not been insensible to this
kindness. A few months ago, a gentleman
who had been attached to the household of Louis
PHILIPPE in a high position, called upon him at
Claremont, and, finding the passages almost blocked
up with bales and boxes, made a remark on the sub-
ject, which produced the following words from the ex-
KING Tout cela vient de Louis Napoleon, qui
s'est montre envers nous plein de bienveillance—cet
homme a le cceur grand et genereux."
The fact it p culiarlynoble and magnanimous on
the part of the Prince, bearing in mind his long exile
when the ex-King was reigning on the throne of the
barricades, and his six years' incarceration at Ham.
Ministers, it is reported, in the event of carrying
the grant of 3,000,000 f., intend submitting to the As-
sembly a proposition for the prolongation of the
presidentship of Louis NAPOLEON for ten years.
A curious circumstance occurred in the bureau of
the Assembly, of which the Marquis DE LAROCHE-
JAQUELIN IS president, during the discussion on the
augmentation t f the PRESIDENT'S allowances. In the
C- Erse of a ve y animated speech which M. DE LA-
RoCEEJAQUELIN made in opposition to the measure,
he said that if 'hey w, re to have a Republic they
ought nil to crake it a quasi-monarchy, or to place
their President on the footing of a sovereign. They
ought to have either a real and complete Re-
public, with Republican institutions, or to have re-
course to a legitimate Monarchy—namely HENRI V.
This expression roused the ire of M. ROUHER, the
Minister of Justice, who exclaimed " Allez done le
chercher, votre HENRI V• l" " Rather to-day than
to-morrow," Was M. LARoCHEJAQIIELIN's answer,
"if France wishes and will allow it." M. ROUHER
replied sotto voce, but sufficiently loud to be heard by
several Members, " J'airnerai mieux la Republique
Sociale que HENRI V. !" It is evident, if this be true,
that, whatever the 3ecrei wishes and intentions of the
great body of theparty of order may be, the intentions
of the Ministers of Louis NAPOLEON are by no means
in favour of a restoration of the dynasty of the
Bourbons.
The Marquis of NORMANDY had a long interview
on Tuesday with the PRESIDENT of the Republic. It
is confidently stated that the terms of the arrange-
ment of the Greek quarrel have been settled, and
that they will be announced in the course of to-day.
After this interview the PRESIDENT held a Council
of Ministers at the Ely 43.
The Moniteur announces that the PRESIDENT of
the Republic has received a letter from the Elector of
Hesse notifeing the death of the Princess ESIILINA
Soruri of Denmark.

On Tuesday evening the Assembly passed the
Pensions Fund Bill for the working classes, with
slight previous emendations.
The amended war budget for 1851 has been distri-
buted. It demands 306,291,009 f., being a reduction of
13,229,682 f.
Letters from Tours of the 11th inst. state that
several attacks have been lately made by the Social-
ists on the soldiers of the garrison.

A dreadful accident occurred on Monday near
Mclun, on the railroad from Paris to Lyons. A lady
named Madame BRUEURE, daughter-in. law of Baron
ST. JAMES, travelling in the coupe of the diligence,
wa- burnt to death before assistance could be afforded.
The cause is attributed to some lucifer matches that
had been,left in the carriage.
A dispute has taken place between M. LUCIEN
MURAT and General CUArGARNIER, in consequence
of which M. MURAT has resigned the commaud of the
3d battalion of the National Guard of the banlieue
of Paris.

Galignani is, as usual, adorned with little announce.
ments of surpassing horror—one mentions the mur•
der of an adulterer at Croy by the injured husband ;
another a disastrous fire at Marne, whereby 190,309
francs worth of property was destroyed ; and, another
the sudden death of a young bride at Puy, during the
marriage feast, when dancing with her companions.
ABD-EL-KADER is not so ill as was reported.
The Bourse was animated today, and a consider-
able improvement took place in the price of Govern..
runt stock. The Five per Cents. opened nt. 93f. 6c.,
rose to 941. 3.5 c., and closed at 94f. 20c.. The Three

The sales of Wheat in the markets which govern the
duties continue moderate. The six weeks' average price
is 395. 2d. per quarter.
A great deal of attention bas been excited in the
City by the . allegation that the Customs' au-
thorities have made further discoveries of fraud&
upon the revenue, and for connivance in
which cirtain parties are stated to have been
held to heavy bail. The greatest secrecy has been
observed in the matter, but rumour asserts that coffee
is one article on which duty has been evaded. The
idea is that the penalties claimed may be paid, and
further investigation thus obviated ; but the Customs'
euthorities are exercising great vigilance, and may pro-
baaly trace out other evasions.
Accounts from Copenhagen still allege that the
Schleswig-Holstein affair is not settled, and noes not
look altogether promising.
At Amst.rdam, on the Ilth inst., very little was
doing in Public Securities. Dutch Two-and-a-Hall per
Cents. were 56 ; Peruvian and Grenada Bonds were
higher. _ •

71'he Engli-h Funds are very quiet, but exceedingly
firm. The Figment of differences on the account is
bong effected to-day, and appears to occasion no diffi
(tufty, although the recent fluctuation has been so heavy.

Upon the subject of the New Grenada Debt, Messrs.
Baring Brothers have addressed a communication to the
committee of Spanish American Bondholders to the
t ffect that they have not received the remittance of
17,725 dollars, as advised to Me.,srs. Powles, Wilson,
and Co., towards the payment of the dividends of 1.)«c.,
1848, whereat Messrs. Baring assert that they have
but 1401. in hand. It appears, however, that
since April, 1849, and to the 19th February last, there
have been remitted 135,986 reals to the firm of Montoya,
Saeuz, and Co., as the proceeds of the custom-houses of
Santa Martha, and that when instructions are received,
the sum will be handed over to Messrs. Baring.
The New Grenada Assembly has authorised the
emission of 2,889„260 re. in Treasary-bills, bearing 6
per cent., to be offered in satisfaction of the over-due
dividends on the foreign Active Debt, and to be received
in part payment of import duties.
The Foreign Securities are very quiet still. To-
morrow will be settling day. Mexican Bonds have
realised 314 i. Grenada 18, and Brazilian small 88.
Portuguese Four per Cents. have been marked 344 and
Spanish Three per Cents. have touched 38i. Russian
Stock is firm at 109. Dutch Four per Cents. are
574 to.
The Railway Share Market looks exceedingly good
again, and some of the old and favourite lines
are rather higher. The traffic of the Aberdeen
line is improving very steadily, the increase within the
last three weeks being from 1,1081. to 1,4701., exclusive
of the allowance for the mails, which is estimated at
150/. per week-, making 1,6201. for the week to the Ist
instant.

It is stated that a company has commenced
working the copper lodes ,on the property of the
Duke of Bedford, near Tavistcck, known as Wheal
Cr.bor. About thirty years ago the main lode pro-
duced, as far as worked, 27,490 tons of copper ore,
realising 167,1021., and a profit of 35,0001. It
is said that the deposits of ore found
in Crehor Mine have been caused "by the
happy combination at the same points of a lode, or
crops course, or other intersection, and a stratum of
killas Lye arable to the deposit of copper-ore in the
lode traverse the same favourable stratum of killas, and
are intersected by the same cress-courses as the main
lode." It is to these parallel lodes that the attention of
the present company is to be chiefly directed.
