FRIDAY EVENING,

FRENCH

We have received the Paris journal; of yester lay.
It t•Tp?ars that the reception of the PRESIDENT on
his tour has not been quite so flattering as the Con-
stilutionnel and the other journals of the ElyF6l would
fain have us believe. At Sens the National Guards
refused to turn out, and at Dijcn the cry of "Vive la
Republique" completely drowned the cries of " Viva
le President! Vive Napoleon !" while some persons
who attempted to get up a shout of " Vive l'Empe-
reur" were at once silenced. The majority of the
Municipal Council of La Guilloterie have resigned
rather than take part in the manifestations which the
Mayors of Lyons and La Guilloterie have been getting
up for his reception, and at Strasbourg the Mayor re-
commended the Council not to grant anything from
the corporation funds for the reception of the PRESI-
DENT, and merely to pay the amount of deference to
him which is quite compatible with the democratic
regime.
On Wednesday the PRESIDENT reviewed the
troops in garrison at Dijon. General CASTELLANE,
the commandant of the sth and 6th military divi-
siont, was presented to the PRESIDENT at Dijon, as
were General VE,:CO and the Bishop of DIJON.
In the tneanwhila the Legitimatises are gathering at
*Wiesbaden. M T. BEURYER,LAFERONNAYS, and several
well-known members of that party have already ar-
rived ; their presence was to have been expected, but
the presence of two new recruits to the Legitimutist
ranks has caused some sensation—the first of these is
M. VESIN, formerly known for his intense attachment
to the Hou,,e of Orleans, and the other is M. DE
LAFERTE, the son-in-law of Count MOLE.
It would appear that Generals CAVAIGNAC and
LAMORICI EaßnEy areattempt

the by
PRESIDENT force, it
onrecheisssafrriYe'Cids to violate the Constitution, and it would
appear, from a letter published in the Concordia of
Turin, that General CHANGARNIER will follow this
example, and lend to them the weight of his au-
thority. The Paris correspondent of the Concordia
writes as follows :

"M. Bastide, former Minister for Foreign Affairs,
I authorize 3ou to declare and
to write,
;roper, that Generals Cavaignac,
sLaaidmotor tme
lei,e 3:t feue(, staenrdtdheiy—
onk thers, as well as Colonel Charras,
are determined to place themselves at the head
of the people and army. Lot only in the event of
a military coup de main, but also in that of a simple
prolongation of the presidential powers.' M. Bastide
then added--' f the people do not rise, 11,2 five
(he here named the Generals) will erect a barricade and
offer our lives for the defence of the constitution.' M.
Bastie'e is the intimate friend of General Cavaignac.
Yesterday I was assured by a person entitled to credit
that General Lamoricra.o had, a few days ago, a long
conference with General Changarnier, and that on part-
ing the two Generals were seen cordially shaking each
oti:er by the hand. It is said that General Chaogarnier
has pledged himself on his honour to uphold the consti•
tution and oppose all attempts at a coup d'etat. It is not
astonishing, consequently, that rumours relative to a
coup detat, and even the prolongation of the powers of
the Pre:ddenr, have of late ceased to circulate. Bona-
parte perceives, and says to-day, that nll he has to do is
to maintain until 1852 the Existing status quo."
'We find the following in the Bulletin de Paris :
" The tranquil quarter of the Villa Basujon was on
Sunday placed in agitation by one of the most
striking incidents. Mine. Lola Montes had taken
for fifteen years a magnificent hotel belonging to
M. Rosa. She caused it to be furnished with
extraordinary splendour. Turkey carpets of
great value ornamented all the apartments during
the winter season. The most curious and rare furni-
ture was bought of a tradesman, who, serluced by the
reputation of the great fortune of the romantic adven-
turer, had had sufficient confidence to give credit for
six months. On Sunday, the day on which a large
111313 fell due, the furniture man presented himself, but
Madame Lola begged him to call again at the end of the
week on account of the absence of her husband, who
had forgotten to leave the money. During this time
Madame Lola made preparations for leaving, and
caused vehicles to be sent for to remove her goods. The
upholsterer informed of this, hastened to the Villa Beau-
jon, and found himself in the midst of the confusion
caused by the removal of his furniture. A great up-
roar took place, and the Commissary of Police and some
of the other creditors, who had been apprised of what
was going on, arrived. Among the creditors was M.
Jacquand, a celebrated painter, to whom a large sum
was due for portraits of the lady. Surprised in the
midst of these preparations for flight, the lady was not
disconcerted for a single instant : she pretended that
she was disposed to pay—that her husband had sent
her the money for that purpose, but that she had lost
the key of her cash-box. She begged the creditors
to wait for a moment w hilst she went fur a locksmith,
but neither locksmith nor lady appeared. Madame
Lola had entered a vehicle which was waiting fur her
in the Avenue de Chateaubriand, near the Barribre
de l'Etoile, and had disappeared like a shadow, with-
out saying when she would return."
M. DE LAMARTINE on Sunday left the lazaretto at
Marseilles, on his return from the East; and was to
proceed on the next day to the baths of the Prado.
The Courrier de la Drome announces that several
persons charged with being connected with secret so-
cieties have been arrestcd is the south o' France.

On Tuesday evening several persons were arrested
in Paris, among them was the gerant cf M. PROUD-
uoN'3 jc)urnal, the People, the office of which was
searched.

The French squadron, commanded by Vice-
Admiral PARSEVAL-DEICHENES, arrived at Cher•
hourg on the 10. h. The division under the orders of
Rear- Admiral DunouantEu was expected to arrive in
a few days.
This being the Festival of tile Assumption, the

per Cents. were done at 97f.
