FROM OUR OWN

IRV!.
PARIS, SATURDAY.
The funeral of the Prince of Conde takes place to-day
he is to be buried at Saint Denis.

As long since as the 29th of July, parties of workmen
proceeded to several printing offices where mechanical presses
were used, and broke some of them ; whilst, in other cases,
the owners promised that they should be disused. Amongst
others, those of the Royal printing office were broken. On
Wednesday the Government gave orders that these should
be mended, and set to work. The workmen of the Royal
printing office immediately struck, and proceeded to different
printing offices to state what they had done, and threat-
ened the workmen, if they did not follow the ex-
ample, that they would ill-treat them. These visits and
threats were continued on Thursday. Some of the master
printers refused to comply with their demands, while others
yielded. In some cases explanations took place, and the
men were advised to make known their grievances legally
in the proper quarter. One cause of complaint is, that out
of the fund appropriated for the workmen thrown out of
employ by the late events, none has been given to the prin-
ters. They add, that it is ungenerous in the Government
to make use of machinery, which throws numbers of prin-
ters out of work. A large assemblage took place on Thurs-
day evening at the Barriere de la Courtille, and it was agreed
that a second meeting should be held on Friday morn-
ing on the same subject. As some apprehensions were
entertained that disorderly proceedings might result from
these combinations, the National Guards mustered very
strongly, and large parties of them patroled the streets during
the whole of Thursday night. The meeting took place, but!
the men conducted themselves very peaceably, and some of
the authorities who held a conference with them have, it is
said, agreed to the suspension of mechanical presses. But
the workmen state that they will not be satisfied with any
other concession than a Royal Ordonnance for abolishing the
use of all such presses in future. Some of the Master
Printers have resolved to resist this arrangement, as an
attack on private property. I suppose avangst these is the
printer of the journal, Le Temps, for mete lit a single page
has appeared this morning (Saturday) of that journal, and
that only contains a few paragraphs, stating that from the
combination they had no hands at work. The Journal des De-
bats did not appear yesterday—some of the men went to the
office and insisted upon the presses not being used, but they
were told to go about their business, as there would be no more
work done in the office till they chose to resume their labour
as formerly. These men have seen the error of their ways for
the Journal des Debate has appeared to-day—at present,
there is no appearance of any workmen about the streets, in
the way of assemblies. I have been round to all the princi-
pal points this morning, and all is perfectly tranquil. The
National Guards still muster strong ; but, thank GOD, there
will be no occasion for them to quit their posts. I shall send
you word to-morrow of the state of affairs. With referenc

to what I have stated here, the Journal de Paris Las the
following passage :
" It is reported this afternoon' that some printers had again
left their work, determined to break the press machines, if
a promise was not given to them that they would not be used
in future. Prudent measures were immediately taken to
protect private property, against attacks which cannot be
justified. Meetings not in the least alarming have taken
place on several points. We can hardly believe they will
assume a serious character, and the working printers per-
sisting in such intentions, can only tend to disturb public
order. We shall surely never forget that it was from the
printing-offices of the capital, that the days of the 28th and
29th were first put in motion. The part which the working
printers took on those memorable days, is too praise-
worthy and pure, for them to consent to let order
be stained by foul deeds, or by acts of discord.
—Let them consider the calm and noble attitude of
the rest of the Parisian population, and it is to be hoped
that they alone will not be wanting in their duty, after
conducting themselves so deservedly when at the head
of their comrades. Those cries against machines, which
we have heard uttering for some time past, arise, in our
opinion, from errors as profound as they are fatal. Far
from deserving absolute and general proscription, all new
inventions which tend to multiply productions, appear
to us, by that same reason, to be useful. But
in admitting that the error be on our side,
is it by threatening outrage against private property, that
the printers will prove the justice of their cause ? At a time
when liberty is asked for all, does it belong to any particular
class to raise despotism ? If the grievances of the printers
are founded, let them prove it ; we are ready, as far as con-
cerns us, to give to their reclamation all the publicity in
our power, and that they can desire. But let the expres-
sion of their grief be regular : calling force to its aid is to
condemn it."

STOCK EXCHANGE, Pious, SEPT. 3, FIVE O'CLOCK.•—•
The market has been very heavy to-day and the consequence
has been a decline in the price of stocks, to which the re-
newed meeting of numbers of the workmen has in some de-
gree contributed ; about three o'clock quotations rallied upon
its being made known that these assemblies were peaceably
dispersing, but still closing prices were lower than yester-
day. Neapolitan, for money, and Spanish, have experienced
a very considerable fall. For money, the 5 per cents. have
declined 60c. the 4 per cents. If. 50c. the 3 per cents. 30c.
Neapolitan, If. 30c. Haytian, 25f. Cortes 11; Guebhard's,
11 ; Rentes Perpetuelles, 21. For the end of the month,'
the 5 per cents. have fallen sc. the 3 per cents. 15c. Rentes
Perpotuellas, 2i ; Neapolitan have risen 35c.
The retrograde of stock of every description, which com-
menced towards the close of the market, has continued, and
the price of stock of every description for the end of the
month is lower. The decline cannot be attributed to the
scarcity of cash, for money is abundant. The cause generally
assigned is the mutiny that has taken place at Metz, and
a rumour that Prussian troops are marching towards the
frontiers of Belgium. This latter rumour, if true, naturally
tends to create disquietude as to the results.
The Mutiny at Metz, is spoken of in a Paris paper thus :

—A mutiny of a serious nature broke out on the 29th ult-
among the garrison at Metz. Almost every regiment rose
and demanded the removal of their officers, and their re-
quest was immediately complied with. The example of in
subordination was first given by the two regiments of ca-
valry at Sarquemines and Ponte-Mousson. One of these
regiments, overjoyed with their success marched to Metz,
when the spirit of insubordination soon spread to
the troops in the garrison. The regiment of dra-
goons began to mutiny on Saturday evening ; they
obtained the removal of their officers, and on Thursday come
to the parade as if nothing had occurred. This example was
not lost. On the same evening, the 6th regiment of artillery
repaired to the Colonel's house, to take away the colours and
the cheat of the regiment. Every thing in the house was
broken to pieces, but the Colonel fortunately was absent.
IHis dismissal was loudly called for. The meeting might
have been easily prevented, as the Lieutenant-General,
having been informed before-hand that it would take place,
might have complied with the wishes of the soldiers,
at least provisionally. It is asserted, that on Sunday night,
a battalion of the line and the whole of 19th regiment like-
wise mutinied. The 9th regiment of artillery and the en-
gineer corps alone, have not been led astray by the fatal ex-
ample of others. It is thought that these disorders are to
be attributed to the perfidious suggestions of some persons
who are strangers in the army.
The Journal du Commerce states that :—" The delay
that has occurred in providing means to meet the present
commercial difficulties, and the extreme strictness of the
bank, begin to produce their effects. Two houses on Friday
suspended their payments, one of them having in band no
less than 400,000 francs, in good bills, which they could
not negociate. The number of bills protested on Friday and
the day before is immense: one Huissier alone had 160.
The situation of the second and third order of merchants re-
quires the most prompt and effective aid."

Accounts this day received from Lisbon state, that on the
arrival of the intelligence from Paris of the revolution, the
Minister of War gave orders for the march of troops to
Oporto—fearing it would be the first place where disturb-
ances would take place.

A private letter, just received from Falmouth, which we
acknowledge with thanks, informs us that the Magnet packet,
Captain PonTzo us, had arrived from Lisbon yesterday
morning, from whence she had sailed on the 22d ult. The
Galatea British frigate had been at Lisbon seven days. The
demand for the liberation of the British ships detained, had
been promptly complied with. As some of the ships and
cargoes had been disposed of, the Galatea was, most probably,
waiting to see them all out of the river.

Prince Edward Island papers to the Ilth Aug. and St
John's, New Brunswick, to the 31st July, have been re.
ceived at the N. S. A. Coffee-house. The former papers
state that the Bth Regiment of Foot had arrived at Halifax,
from Dublin; and that the inhabitants were greatly grad-
fied by the arrival there of the Rickard Smith, being the
first steam-vessel that entered the port. The New Bruns-
wick papers do not contain any particular news.

Prince &tertian, had a long interview with the Secretary
of State for Foreign Affairs yeeterdpy.
The Chevalier de Benckhaneen, the Russian Consul-
General, had a conference, with the Fad of Aberdeen yes-
I terday afternoon.

CITY, rwsLvE O'CLOCK.
Although we are as yet without any authentic information
for the cause of the great panic which took place on Satur-
day in the Funds, the Consol Market still looks very heavy,
and continues declining. Consols, which left off on Satur-
day at 8711 for the Account, opened at 87k, and have re-
ceded to 861 i, at which price they are at present. This de-
cline may be attributed to information received this morning
from St. Petersburgb, that the Emperor of Russia is still
waving in the acknowledgment of & now French Govern-
ment ; and that he has given orders that no other flag from
France shall be received in his ports, than the white flag._
He is waiting the decision of the British Government before
he will admit the tri-coloured flag.

The private letters from Amsterdam, this day, bring the
Dutch funds 2 per cent. higher. The information from
Brussels is still undecisive. In the Foreign Market nothing
doing—every thing very heavy.
LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 4.—The import of cotton this week
is 15,301 bags, and the sales are 10,160 bags, at rather
lower prices. In sugar, 1,250 hhds. of B. Plantation have
been sold this week, at an advance of 6d. to Is. on middling
and low brown descriptions. The sales of East India are
690 bags, at 64 6 to 67.
By the French Estafetto from Paris, this morning, the
3 per cent. rents are 72 75 for time.
CITY, HALF-P4IST ONE.
Consols have receded, during the morning, from 87} to
861 for the Account ; at present they are 861 to 87, with
little doing.
The information from Cronstadt, of the 21st An7ust,
of an order coming there from St. Petersburgh not to admit
any other flag but the white from France, has had a mate-
rial effect on the consol market, and caused it to recede 1
per cent.
Letters from Ghent, of the 3d August, state that all was
tranquil there. _ _ _

The letters from Lisbon are also silent in regard to any
ommotions having taken place there.
In the Foreign Market nothing doing.
