2osr Of the President-The Fight in the Assembly-
Raising of the Siege in Paris and Departments
Letter Of the archbishop of PUis-Incons Tar-
FIRES in the Southern Departments, &c. &c.
The political slagnation which have reported
in my last two or three letters has been agreeably
varied this week by the excursion Of the Prcsi-
dent to Rouen and Havre, and the ceremonies of
his reception there, the one hand, and the spec
tacle presented in The Assembly by his cousin Lu.
oien giving the Montognad M. CASTER, punch
in the face, on the other were it not for these re-
d
politics.
The Presidents reception at Rouen was favor
able his friends say, enthusiastic; at all events 1t
was toleraby satisfactory. The reverse, however,
was the case al HAVE; where, all things consider
ed, il must be admitted TO have been a fiilure
The truth Is, that these progresses OF the President
In the departments, are, whether truly or not
garded as feelers put out with either to the
establishment Of the President, IN his present po-
To- l.
or, if the appeared favorable, the taking
OF an immediate Jump 10 the imperial throne. Ii
must be admitted, however, that as yet there has
been but small announcement afforded for this IN
any quarter. After allowance has been made tor
the zeal oi officials, nothing has occurred which
could In The least Justify the party OF the President
in any Ambitious measure. On every occasion
which he has gone To the provinces he has beea
proceeded by legion Of precursors, whose BUSH
ness II is TO get up thing necessary 10 give
him proper reception. do not mention this as
reProacb, even IN the slightest degree, TO Prince
LOUIS. His subordinstes take these measures ex.
actly IN the same way the suboIdinates Of every
chief OF state take them under like circum sfances
You must not suppose that when Queen Victoria
went 10 Dublin every measure was not taken TO
prepare tor her the reception which yoa nave heard
OF. Nothing more or less has been done IN the
cese OF Prince LOUIS, IN the departments, the ony
difference being that the result has not been quite
80 auspicious In the in the other.
You will see In the journals all the details of the
squabble between the cousin Of the President,
Pierre Bonepsrte, aud M. Caster. The affair is
to be brought before the Correctional Police, on
Friday next, too late for the report TO reach you.
From all that ! have learned believe the fact TO
be, that very gross provocaon was gwen TO Pierre
BonspaIte by Nj. CASTER, who not ooly addressed
10 him personally the expression {" imbectle," but
used extremely gross and offensive language aud
gestures as regarded his cousin the President,
while the reporter reading the offensive loel
IN the tribune. IL can easily be believed that the
provocstion must have been gross indeed, which
could have provoked blow on such an occasion,
and in such place. NJ. CASTER pretends that NJ
I1errc Donapaite was not personally known 10 him
and that, cons, quenty, he could have meant no
offence, whatever language he might have used,
IN reference 10 the aItice read from the tribune.
But this disavowal IL n personal knowledge OF VI.
Pierre Bonaparte Is believed by no one nor, Indeed,
~ II credible, unless We were to admit that VI
Caster was blind M. Pierre Bonaplrte bears a
most extraordinary resemblance to the portraits
Of the Emperor, resemblance 80 striking, that IL
Is Impossible for any oae familiar with tive franc
piece to meet him In the street, without recognIz-
ing him for Bonapare. IL the affair should not
be aITs-ged I" a famiabLe," which at present a,-
pears not at all probable, Nj. Pierre Bonaparte VIII
be brought before the Count Of Assizes, and If
found gully, will be sentenced to ak months im
prisonment.
The state Of siege Under which Paris and the
departments at the Seine has been hitherto placed
having ceased, the democratic journals, which
were SUSPENDED have commenced 10 reappear, and
the Refumc was, accordingly, published on Mon
day. The leading article was, as might be expect
ngly, seized at the Post Office and in its bnreaas,
and did not re-sppesr on Tuesday. IL has, how
ever, been published to-day, but is much more
mild IN ne attacks ON the Preslaent and the go
yernmtnt.
The Archbishop Of Paris, who. II will BE- rccol-
lecied was appointed to hts prcscst oflce by Gen.
Gavsignac, OF whom he - an old and intimate
hiend, has published hitter TO the Minister OF
Foreign Aflairs, in favor Of Venice, exhortiug the
French government to intervene vigorously 10 os-
tain more favorable conditions for thlt city than
those which Austria threatens to impose on 1t
This letter has called forth some severe commen-
faries IN society, aud in the press not because the
public dsapprOvcs OF IT'S tenor, or would not gladly
see the measures II recommends taken but because
such Interference la temporal politics, Is consi-
dered altogether out OF the sphere o the church
-dgniiary, and, in word, piece Of clerical i'm.

qualified by any particular talent displayed in the
letter.
In my last, mentioned to you that an income
rax would probably be proposed by NJ. Passy. The
proposition was made To- the Assembly soon alter
waids. The measure, however, has not been ior-
maliy receives and the COMMITTEE ot the Assem-
bly,, 10 which the project was referred, IL uader-
stood to he opposed To- ". They think that the in-
quisItoral me assures necessary to enforce a nea-
sure such as this, in equitable manner, will not
be borne patiently by the French people, eud that
the treasury can be ne ~, nished with less Iuconve
nience by augmentlng some OF the existing I'M
pests. The committee, however, have not, asyet,
Gene to aDy positive decision on the subject. but
the project is by them, 7, ferred TO sub-cOumit-

cit during the adjournment of the Assembly.
Several Of the Southern departments have been
lately devastated by tires, which are known 70 be
the work of incendiarics. In the departments of
che Isere and the Drome, tie devastation has
been terrible. The crops were completely des-
treyed, and great amount Of furniture and farm
stock loet AT Lsunur, on the 7th, fifteen farm
