No 8? We are not informed, nor is IT of much
consequence What is certain is, that devastation
there assumed still larger proportions. The exc
cutors of this new sort of razzia left nothing whole,
neither tables, nor chairs, nor lamps, nor forms;
they threw down the presses and put all the ma
chimes out of working order They broke the win
dows so that in three stories of the immense build

not been there TO see could have an idea of the
desolate aspect of the edice since this honest and
moderate expedition. The losses of M. Boule
amount TO considerable sum he employed Two

| All these savage acts had but one end, namely,
to prevent the Democratic Pacifqus, the Journal de
la VrGs Replbique the Temps, the Petpie the Esta-

this morning. They are successful
We read in the Steele of to-day that the detach-

Commandant Vieyrat. Did these gentlemen act by
their own private authority, or had they orders
But we will not ask. Paris is in the state of siege,
and ii is dangerous to appear too curious.
The Steele observes, with reason, that during the
two revolutionary months of l846, under the adj
ministraton of the Provisional Government, when
there was in Paris neither army nor an organ

Courtas went to the spot at once. But their pres

all was over. A simple handful, drawn up by
several journalists, had suffced 10 call back the
multitude to the respect of liberty. This handful

England-Political Gossip.
LONDON, Saturday, June $50 a. m.
The general subject of gossip in all parts of the
city, this morning, relates to the budget" which
the Chancellor of the Exchequer brought forward
last night.
Considerable surprise is felt that the government
have not ere this hurried through the House of
Commons the bill for Transporting Smith O'Brien,
T. F. Meaghcr, t. B. McManus and O'Donahue.
1t is said that, Notwithstanding all their positive
sertions to the contrary, they have their doubts
whether they can, even with the new BILL transport
the Irish State prisoners. From what is current
here, some very odd circumstances, in connexon
with the whole affair, will be brought before Par
lament in a few days.
Rumors are afoat in political circles that Lord
Stanley intends TO make-a motion, condemnatory of
the Canadian Indemnity BILL and relies that he will
obtain a majority on his motion. If so, Lord FL
gin and his colleagues may prepare to quit their
snug berths instanter.
Ii appears that the medical commissioners, APP
pointed by Lord Clarendon did not give it as their
opinion that Mr.. Martin was in fit state to un-
dergo transportation.
Our Belfast advices Of yesterday state that the
cholera there is decreasing that during the last week
there were only twenty-nine new cases, of which
ten were fatal, and nineteen cured

later news from the Indian territories, and month

any feature of importance. Tranquility reigned

The Government proceeding with aacrity and
hrmness in their preliminary arrangements for the
rule and control of this newly acquired and extern
sive possession Business matters, both at Bonn
bay and Calcutta, continue IN a satisfactory condi-
ton. The money market, exchange, and freights
do not appear to have altered materially from the
tenor of our adyices received by the previous mail.
Important from China.

character, and, as already intimated, are a month

The dates from Canton extend to the twenty-ifth
Of April.
Contrary to expectation, the Emperor Of the
Chinese has refused 10 open the trade Of Canton 10 the
British upon the terms Of eO-erisfing treaties.
This determination may give rise 10 very serious
occurrences, as the British Government WILL no
doubt, insist upon their rights.
In commercial matters we do not find any thing
Of importance 10 communicate.
