he assembled three members of his ministry, M De
Persigby, Minister Of the Interior, NJ. DucOs Minis
ter Of the Navy, and M. Fould, Minister of State;
and then without asking their advice opinion he
decree by which he suppressed the ministry Of po-
lice To the question which was put to him as
to the propricty OF doing such thing, he replied that
such WAS his wish and that he had no other answer
to give; and Immediately he dictated also the decree
by which M. de Maupas named Senator and
Ambassador at Naples-desiring not to permit the
French people to suppose that he was placing bis
ex minister in state OF unfavor. NJ. de Maupas
was quite astonished the next morning to see the
decree in the Monitetr, and | am told that he
showed much grief to few Of his friends who had
called to see him. But he recovered. and went
to st. Cloud, where he was received with courtesy
by the Emperor and not a word OF the decree was
spoken between them. nj. de Maupas is gone to
Naples, and it is whispered in certain quarters that
he has received private directions TO see whether
the return of the Murat family the throne Of the
Two Siciles was possible to undertake. 1t is GER
tain fact that the ambassador Of King Ferdinand
OF Naples has shown much dissatisfaction at the
nomination of NJ. de Maupas.
Though the arrests made by the late Minister of
Police useless and arbitrary for the most part
they are continued under the direction OF NJ Piere;
| but the warrants have this time been directed
against people who were dangerous to the govern
ment of Louis Napoleon. Many socialists and
| rewls de justice who had returned to Paris have
been sent to the conciergerie, and will be dis
posed OF in . short time. But among the late
arrests have to mention the CITRATE OF the church
of st. Joseph, who is well known for his legitinst
opinions; and also rich chocolate maker, OF the
rue du Helder, who is ranked among the demo-
Gratis Of Paris. There is doubt the disaiection Of
revolution will take place. 1t may come ont as
tornado but it maysalso be as long coming as
| the last judgment. We shall see.
IL is also reported that Louis Napoleons intention
is to suppress the Ministry of Public Instruction,
| which would become one of the branches of the
Ministry of the Interior, and thus M. de Persigny
would be the most important minister OF the empire
Of France.
The Minister Of Public Worship has directed
the Catholic clergymen not to show themselves
so severe about the marriages between Protestants
and Catholics. For the last two months the Romish
priests had shown the utmost intolerance about such
selves to educate their children in the Catholic re-
ligion A great many persons on whom such con-
ditons had been imposed have refused to consent to
such orders, and have been married only by Protes
tant ministers.
Since the nomination of NJ. de Maupas and NJ
Berger, Qate Project Of La Seine,) replaced by NJ.
Haussmen, to the dignity of senators, the number Of
the senators has been raised to one hundred and
fifty four. There are now two princes OF the I'M
perial family, six cardinals. six marshals, and two
admirals. The other one hundred and thirty eight
have been directly named by the Emperor, whilst the
preceding are senators according to the terms Of the
bassador of France to Constantnople has just been
named senator.
have also to mention among the last DEGREES that
relative to the Decoration Of the Legion of Honor,
and also to the other orders Of foreign countries For
the future no Frenchman will be allowed to wear at
his button hole a ribbon of any country if he
is not allowed to do it by private decision. The
McnifeMr has already published q series of names
of persons from whom the right of wearing the
ribbon of the Legion of Honor, well as other rib
bons has been taken off There were many people in
France, who had no right whatever to wear deco
ratioHs who have been frightened by the decree and
who have already taken off their ribbons from their
button holes. Very funny, indeed-is it not? Not
to speak Of the scandal which was caused by the
sight of men of the most infamous sort who were
bold enough to make other people believe that they
were honorable men.
The last decree will mention is relative to an i'm
mense exhibition of works of art industry and COM
merce Of all nations, to take place in Paris in the
year 1855, at the Champs Elysee, in the new build
ing now in process of erection. ! am inclined to
believe that this exhibition will surpass everything of
the kind that has been seen. and all care will
be taken to attract foreign nations to send their
goods to it.
The Duke and Duchess d'Albe, who are the bro

All the leading members Of the Jesuit congrega-

At Madrid the resignation of NJ. Bermudes de
Castro has caused much excitement among the dipo-
mats who are in favor Of the Minister Iersund. M.
Calderon de Ia Barca now Ambassador Of Spain to

Of Minister Of Foreign Affairs But it is now
doubtful whether he will accept this new honor, and
will not prefer to remain at Washington, far from the
political turmoil Of his country.

The Turkish question Is still unsettled, and we are,

placing the commerce and stock holders in the most
extraordinary state Of ambition II had been affirmed
in several quarters that the hostiles between the
Russians and the Turks had already commenced on
the shores Of the river Prdth but the has been
denied, and we are on the qui rice for ntelli-
eence. Ii Is only certain that NJ Balabn. the last
member Of the Russian legation at Constantinople,
who had remained behind, after the departure Of
Prince Menschikof has decidedly loft the capital Of
Turkey, taking with him all the archives of the
Russia an embassy. From all quarters OF Europe we
receive the intelligence that the Russians and the
