Unusually hot weather continued to be expert
enced, the sun shining with intense power through
unclouded skies. Great progress was being made

Our accounts from the French capital extend to
the lst instant inclusive. The trade Of Paris had
considerably improved during the previous week,
in consequence Of the arrival of great number Of
foreigners from London. The accounts received
from the manufacturing towns were equally favor

It has been ascertained that the disease with
which the growing wheat was attacked, was not
so general as it was at first believed, and great

Considerable interest has been excited in Eng.
land BY the debate in the French Legislative AS
sembly which terminated on the 29h ult, upon the
measure introduced by M. du St. Beave, for COM
mercia reform, by modifying the present restrictive
tariff so as to bring about gradual approach to free
trade. Alter powerful speech from NJ. Thisrs,
who spoke against the motion, it was rejected by
42S to l99 but il is nevertheless believed that the
free trade doctrines are making steady progress in
France. The speech Of M. Thiers is much noticed
by the London journals, none of them, not even
the English protectonist organs approving of his
doctrines regarding restrictions on trade and com
