FRANCE.
The Fetes Napoleon, on the 18th of
August, passed off well, although the
outdoor amusements were married by
wet weather. The Emperor granted |
pardons, combinations or reductions of
punishment to 1142 prisoners.
A Paris letter says the government
will demand of England the extradition
of Ledru RolIin, and that communications
on the same subject have already passed
between Count Walewski and Lord
Crowley.
1t is believed that the conviction of Lee
dru Rollin would bring him within the
provisions of the extradition treaty.
1t is added that Ledru Rollin has al
ready left, or intends to leave for the
United States.

It was he who stirred up the last Bur-

The Emperor and Empress had gone
to Biarritz.
The Paris correspondent of the Lon
don Times says the French government
= contemplates sending a naval and military
expedition to Cochin China, to support
, a demand for satisfaction for an insult
offered to the French representative by

it is proposed to found maritime and

The news by ths Atlantic s generally
uuimportaaL
The telegraph squadron was At Ply
mouth. Future movements were 70 BE-
determined upon az q meeting Of the d.
rectors Of the Telegraph Company, on
the day the Atlantic left The general
opinion Of those most qualified to form
a judgment, appears to be that we have
learned enough in the first attempt to
lay the cable morally certain. Two inn
portant points have been decisively set
at rest, by what has already been ach-
ieved. The unparalleled length of the
cable, and the vast depth to which It was
sunk, have presented no obstacles to its
Geographic working. Until the final dis
aster occurred, messages were flashed
along the $500 miles of wire, portion
Of which was submerged to the desth Of
very nearly two miles III the ocean
The principal troubles appear to be in
the paying out gear, and the great force
of the under current. In the next ven
ture, everything of this kind will be la
ken into calculation. The mechanism
for passing the cable into the water will
receive all the improvements of which it
is susceptible, and if the time be so for
tunately chosen as to secure three weeks
of favorable weather, there can be nc
reason for despairing of ultimate success
So says the London News.
The London Star says it is estimated
that the outside loss of the Company viii
sustain in consequence of the failure will
be $4,000. It is fully expected that a
least one-half of the sunken cable viii
be recovered. All that is within 40C
: fathoms will be got up, but that portion
in deep sea will, in all probability, not bt
recovered. The cable will, it is under
stood, be forthwith hauled up.

The recent storms and floods had dont
considerable damage to the crops, &c, il
various parts of England, but dry weathe
had prevailed during the three days pre-
ceding the Atlantic's departure, and it wa
hoped that the effects of the rains woul,
be much alleviated.
