Charge ordered the fleet at Toulon to Immediately get
under weigh for the Grecian seas The inacton of the
English has given air of precipitation and almost Of
ridicue to the French movement which is not entirely
satisfactory to French amour propre
The Council of State has just published in the Monteur
what 1t pleasantly calls epos Of the French budget
for the financial year 1854. Lueus non ucendo Never
was drer less satisfactory document of the kind sub
mtted to popular and Legislative inspection But in fact
under the actual regime where's the of publishing
details? Why fill up the Moniteur with such useless
items! Details are only necessary to the Emperor who
in his Council of State determines all the articles both
OF expenses and receipts that compose the budget So
the very natural curiosity of the taxpayng people and
OF the quasi taxvotng Legislature is be gratfed

of the Sandman Government and proof offered by the
emgrants, not only that they have become naturalized
subjects of his Sandman majesty but that they and
have ever been in principle opposed to the Mazzn and
Kossuth school of revoutonst and have eschewed
all practical connexion with them The Sandman Gov
ernmen is understood to have asked the good offices of
Napoleon Ill to obtain the repeal of this niqutous se
questraton by the Austrian Government. 1t is hoped
that his mediation will have influence at Vienna
from the known fact that upon the occasion of the late
outbreak Milan the Emperor of the French had spon

powerful military force and cooperate with Austria in
quelling instantly and terribly nsurrecton in demo-

is of to give efficacy to friendly Intervention Of
Napoleon ILL., but the other hand, the Emperor of
Austria may apply the drgumenum ad hominem with crush

The political demonstration to which alluded in late
letter having been made by the Democrats of Paris
seng for pretext the occasion offered by the funeral of
Mad. RAspAIL, has made serious impression upon the
Government The Minister of Police has issued his

have special eye all funeral meetings to which, by
possibility, political Specification could be given All
such demonstrations be prevented To this end po
lice officers must be present funerals and forbid assem-
bes which, upon pretex Of paying respect the dead
promise to become suspciousy numerous and to assume
the appearance of manifestations of political sympathy
Too many persons be permitted on these occa
sons to enter the buryng ground and especially the
projects must prevent all funeral orations
The inaugural address Of Gen. PIERCE arriving in Paris
just about the time of the great excitement that recently
prevailed to Eastern affairs the time thrown
quite into the back ground topic of discussion here
Since the Eastern question has assumed less menacng
aspect going back to criticize the Presidents
speech The Debas of yesterday has leading article of
two and half columns upon this subject from the pen of
its principal editor. Here is his conclusion:
'The reservations made by President PIERCE in favor
Of the principles Of international law have therefore no
would be without efficacy in practice And here in its
crudity is the fact it exists The chief of the Execu
tive power has given to the advanced portion of the
Democratic party encouragements which il had never
before obained-whch Gen. Jackson in his impetuous
spirit medated according all appearance but which
he officially expressed Let us say things with
panness He has accepted the programme of this party
This is great and new feature and it is perhaps the
starting of mostimportance in the other hemisphere
Hitherto this programme, however eminent may be the
station OF President PIERCE only that Of individual
Congress is by no bound follow the President
and is at liberty to formally reject the policy proposed
by him. IL is likely that animated discussion will
soon follow in both houses of Congress upon this sub
ject This discussion will merit close attention IL in
terests the whole world In fact the balance of the
political power of the world is in question"
