SUMMARY OF NEWS

Most of the Paris journals advert to the last intell
gence from America, and especially to the vote of the
Senate for the annexation of Texas, but their remarks
are very brief, and, with the exception of the sentiments
expressed by the Journal des Delats on the horrors of
slavery, are without interest. After quoting the claims
put forward by Mr. POLK to Texas, on the ground of
previous occupation, that journal observes :—" It is a
peaceful acquisition, says the President ; but after all it
is not so peaceable, for the citizens of the United States
who have taken possession of Texas entered that terri-
tory with arms in their hands, and it was with cannon
that they vanquished the unfortunate President
Mexico at San Jacinto, when he expressed a doubt
whether Texas was from all eternity the property
of the federal union, or was one of his own lost chil-
dren. Mr. Pout cannot be ignorant of the fact. The
invasion of Texas by the Anglo-Americans is odious to
Europe on account of the slavery which it draws in its
train. As long as he does not reply to the repugnance
on the part of Europe, his arguments lead to false con-
clusions. But he does not even allude to them. In
reading the Message one would think that slavery was
unknown on the soil of the United States, which, how-
ever, allows itself to be more degraded by that stain on
humanity than all the other nations in the world. One
is even astonished to find such phrases as this, that all
the distinctions of birth and of rank there are abolished.
We must not, however, deceive ourselves. The spoliation
inflicted upon Mexico by the incorporation of Texas,
however reprehensible it may be, might perhaps pass
unnoticed ; but the systematic, audacious propagation
of an institution so execrable as slavery, is a crime
against civilization, for which the United States will
never be pardoned."
The proposed grant for mounting the fortifications of
Paris with artillery still occupies the Opposition jour
nals, and the discussion on the subject is looked for with
much interest by all parties. A private meeting of the
Opposition, it is said, has been held to decide what course
they should pursue in the Chamber. It was attended by
MM. TRIERS, BARROT, and other leaders. M. TRIERS
was of opinion that it would be absurd to resist the vote
for artillery, after the Chamber had granted a large sum
for the works. M. BARROT took a different view, and
thought independent Members should vote against a
grant which was repudiated by the nation. The result
was, that each Member was left to vote according to his
opinion. At the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies on
Saturday, Admiral MACKAU, in the absence of the Finance
Minister, who was away from indisposition, presented
a Bill for authorising the Government to establish four
lines of packets across the Atlantic. It is proposed to
accomplish this by contract, either for steam-vessels or
sailing vessels, to communicate between France and
Rio Janeiro, Martinique, Guadeloupe, Havannab, and
New York, with branch packets for La Plata, Guiana,
and the Gulf of Mexico. M. VIVIEN brought forward
a motion to repeal a law by which the Royal Courts have
the right of inserting their decisions and law advertise-
ments in only one paper, with a view to order the pub-
lication of such notices in journals which have the largest
circulation. The motion was opposed by the Govern-
ment, and rejected by a majority of 37.
The French Funds were more firm on Sunday. At
TORTOlieb tho Three per Cents. were quoted at 85f. 60c.,
and the Fives at 118 f. sc. for the Account.

The first meeting took place yesterday, at the residence of
Sir Robert Peel, between the Duke de Broglie and Dr. Lush-
inaton, on the all- important question of the right of search
in connexion with the slave trade. We believe, from what we
have heard, that the Government of France is prepared to
make many concessions not hitherto acceded to. With re-
spect
to the principles upon which this double commission of
inquiry, and we hope of ultimate mutually beneficial result,
is to be conducted, there is no question as to the ability of
the British Government to impart every means for the sup-
pression of the inhuman traffic. We think there are hopes
of a satisfactory result, founded upon information that has
been communicated to us. But as the consideration of the
matter at issue is now strictly private, we are not at liberty
to refer further to the subject. It is perfectly netorious that
Great Britain stands pledged to use all its efforts for the sup-
pression of the slave trade. Without good and sufficient
reason the commanders of our navy have, but in very few in-
stances, brought a foreign flag nutter control on the slave
coasts. We are inclined to believe that the high principle of
nationality, so much contended for by the people of France,
will give way under the able inter-communications which
are now in progress between that eminent jurist Dr. Lush-
ington and the Duke de Broglie. We shall have occasion
again to refer to this subject.
There appears to be an increasing desire on the part of the
merchants and others in the City of carrying out the prin-
ciple that has been long talked of—restricting the hours of '
banking business. The Committee of the Stock Exchange
have set the example, and there are abundant reasons
why it should be followed by the City bankers. The
most important feature upon this subject is, that
so extensive are the operations in the Railway
Shares that it is impossible, under the present Post-office
rules, to get the correspondence connected with the rail-
way business done in time for post hours. It is not now
an extraordinary circumstances that the employees of Share
brokers and of bankers, who formerly considered the day
ended at five o'clock, have to be kept untilnine, ten, andeven
eleven o'clock at night.
There has been a heavy market for the Three per Cent.
Consols to-day. For the Account the price has fallen from
993/ to 991,0, and for immediate transfer from 993/4 to 99%.
The premium upon Exchequer-bills yesterday was 575. to
595. This morning it is 61s. to 625. India Bonds have
been quoted at 695. to 725. The Three-and- a-Quarter per
Cents. have been purchased at 1021 A, ex div., for the opening.
Brazilian Bonds have been in request at 88 this morning,
without the dividend. The interest upon the Dutch Four
per Cents. is now in the course of payment, and the Bonds
are at 971/ to 14. For Spanish, the price of the Five per
Cents., is 30%, and for the Three per Cents. 4034. Not
much business was transacted in the market to-day.
A vast amount oTbusiness has been transacted in the Rail-
way Shares to-day, and in general the values are advancing.

A MINIATURE ELEPIIANT.—On Thursday last
I liggs, pig-breeder, living at Phoenix-cottage, on the Tewkes-
bury-road,
farrowed twelve young ones. With reference to
f
eleven of• a sow in the possession of Mr. William
these, there was nothing remarkable, but the other
presenting exactly the appearance of that of an elephant.
a most extraordinary lusas naturce—the head
was certainly
cloer;vtearinilayw, the trunk, the eyes, the ears, all exactly cor-
responded. This singular little animal only lived for about
o,e hour and ten minutes. The owner intends to preserve
the body in spirits as a curiosity. It is difficult to account
fair this freak of nature, and we must leave the explanation
to others ; we merely record the fact which our eyes have
seen.—Cheltenham Free Preis.
