The news from Paris is of the most as
tonishing character. Such intelligence Is
especially exciting at this crisis. IL will
be seen by our telegraphic report that eve
rything, by the latest accounts, was IN uncer-
tainty. The most contradictory rumors
were received from all parts of France, and
the whole aspect of affairs seemed to por-
tend most sanguinary struggle.
The other Foreign news is not important.
We have additional news by the Georgia
from California and Oregon.

TIE ARcTIc ExPEDITroS.-We learn
with pleasure that DR.. KANE. the surgeon Of
the Gr.nnell Arctic Expedition, is about to de-
liver course Of lectures upon that Expedition,
at the Smithsonian Institute. in Washington.
We venture TO say that he will treat the subject
in a manner which would throw the charm Of
iro shness and originality over the most thread
bare theme, but which, IN the present case, will
impair, a new attraction 10 novelty, and add a
zoSt to the interest Of thrilling adventure
Those Of cur readers who may remember some
letters from DR.. Kane which appeared in The
TriJtns within a few months after the sailing OF
the Expedition. narrating the first experiences
Of the Arctic voyage. will need no assurance OF
ours TO excite an eager desire to hear the ull &C
counts OF unknown regions and hyperborean lite
which VIII now he given. Dr. Kane combines
congenial appreciation OF what i grand IN
nature. with extensive scientific knowledge, an
Intimate Acquaintance with oil races and coun-
iHeS, derived from personsl observation. power
OF philosophical thought. and remarkable
talent for picturesque. alike for the traveller and
the narrator. We hope he may be induced 20
give these lectures in New-York.

There are, as is well known, some Three
Thousand bids for Canal Contracts under the
Enlargement act OF our late Legislature, IN
which bids from Ten 70 Twenty Thousand per

citizens-of WHOM nlne-tenths at least must be
disappointed whenever the awards are made

appeared in notorious print, in effect advertis-

that Gov. Hunt had offered his place to his sue
cessor elect, (McAlpine) &c. &c
Now II Is very certain, first, that Mr. Seymour

Board by the middle of the present week.
There is very large lobby in attendance on
the deliberations OF the Canal Board, and the
interest felt in the award of contracts is very
great. 1t is understood that proposition to give
large proportion of the work to a firm of
which Mr. George Law Of this City Is the head
had very nearly prevailed in the Board, being
sustained by Mr.. Seymour, as also (report says)
by Secretary C. Morgan, along with Messrs
Fo,lett and Mather, Hunker Canal Commits

the Banbumers, and thus defeated Reports OF
bribery and foul play generally are rife at Al
bany, which NAV have some foundation in fact,
though we hope not 1t will be time enough TO
believe them when they are backed by proof. We
do not pretend to know what bids for contracts
ought to be accepted, but we hope the work will
be divided up into small obs, and that the in
terest of the State will be first considered IN
the awards If Mr.. Seymour shall prove cor
rupt or unfaithful, We shall not hesitate to say
so but nothing short OF proof will suffice to
make MS believe it.

What becomes of all the pinsY" 'that "mill-
ions OF billions of pins must vanish" nobody
can tell how,or where in the course at year,
Euclid" a correspondent ofthe National In-
telligcnccr, shows up the Absurdity of the as
serton in the following style:
"I"think, sirs, the author Of that article
thought little of what he was saying, when he
said that millions of billions of pins must van
ish in the course Of year. Many pins UNI
doubtedly vanish every year; but any mathc-
matcian will demonstrate TO us that single
billion has never yet been manufactured A
billion, according to Noah webstcr,is emill.
ION of Millions number so vast, ] say, that
the human mind has net the =eaf,ssi.ity to runl-
prehend it. A mandatory making one
hundred pins per minute,ahd keptin constant
operation, would only make fifty two millions
five hundred and ninety-six thousand per an
mum, and would require near ncenty thousand
gears, Attic same ratio, without single mo-
ments cessation, to make the number called a
billion.
