CORRESPONDENCE FROM PARIS.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

PARIS, TITURSDAY, December 10.

The rumours of Ministerial changes have been again
revived, and M. Rouher is still the centre of them. The
Emperor is said to be Anxious to have his first statesman
at the head of the Foreign Ministry. The disproportion
between the importance of M. Rouher and the functions
of the office which he now holds becomes greater. The
Ministry of State is virtually nil as regards departmental
work. The replacing of the Minister of the Interior is
also spoken of.
Queen Isabella has made up her mind that she cannot
return as a sovereign to her native land, and she has deter-
mined never to return as a subject. She has just pur-
chased for the sum of £68,000 a magnificent residence
in the Avenue du Roi de Rome, one of the great streets
that run from the Arc de Triomphe. This certainly does
not look like poverty, but the Memorial .I):plomatique
wishes to persuade us that her Majesty is poor. It denies
that she accumulated money in anticipation of her
downfall, or that she took away from Madrid the Crown
diamonds. The commission charged with drawing up an
inventory of the royal property is said to have found them
intact, at Madrid, and to have deposited them at the
National Bank by order of the Provisional Government.
" The jewellery which her Majesty took from San Sebas-
tian is not even equal to that possessed by the
wives of several rich bankers in Paris. Queen Isabella
never cared about, money, and, so far from hoarding up,
had in the last few years abandoned spontaneously more
than one-half of the Crown revenues, to the profit of the
State ; the allowance made to the Royal Household from
the Budget was, indeed, hardly sufficient to cover the ex-
penses of the Court, the management of which, the
fact cannot be denied, was anything but perfect.
The only investments made by the Queen con-
cerned the annual dotations of three millions of reals
granted to the Infanta Isabelle and the Prince of the
Asturias. The amount of those payments was regularly
sent to the Bank of England, and on the marriage of the
Princess with the Count de Girgenti, he was authorised
by his marriage contract to withdraw the share of his
young wife. The portion of the Prince of the Asturias, now
amounting to £330,000, is the only resource at the Queen's
disposal."

The Independance Beige says that the former Ministers
of Queen Isabella have held a conference at her residence,
and that they have recommended her abdication in favour
of Don Carlos. The royal exile has not accepted this pro-
position, but it has been determined to aid a Carlist move-
ment in the north of Spain, simultaneously with the
insurrection in the south.

The Marquise de Caux, or Patti as she is still called, is
suffering from hoarseness, and is forbidden for the present
to resume professional duties.
At Clamart, one of the souvenirs of the Revolution
which are fast disappearing everywhere is now being
demolished. This is the old cabaret where Condorcet
stopped for refreshment the night of his arrest. He
bad escaped from Paris without a passport, and had
wandered about in the neighbouring country, hiding him-
self during the day, and suffering extreme hunger and
thirst. At length he was compelled to enter this cabaret
to procure something to cat, and, having ordered
a repast, sat down to it. His dress, disordered
and muddy, excited attention, and, in order to reassure
his host, he drew out a splendid purse, the last remnant of
his former luxury. This betrayed him. He was arrested,
and he poisoned himself in prison the same night. The
cabaret was entitled " The Travellers' Rest."

Ten thousand gold florins have been found in the timber-
work of a ship which has been broken up at Trieste.
This sum had been confided by a mercantile house to the
vessel for conveyance eight or nine years ago, but,
having been missing ever since, was generally supposed to
have been stolen.
