The FRENCH CoRvETTE.--The arrival in the river
OF. the French man-ofwar Lavoisier, and the re-
ported intention of her officers to come up and
pay the city visit, created little excitement
and curiosity yesterday afternoon. 1t was amusing
to hear the different speculations which were made
as to the object of the vessels appearance here.
Some thought, and even positively asserted that
the snip vase of those said to have been pur-
chased by the Confederate authorities in France,
and which had been sent here, loaded With arms.
Others, just as wise and knowing declared that it
betokened an early interference on the part of Ma
poleon IN the quarrel going on over on this side Of
the water. And one very tind individual trem-
blingiy expressed belief that she was Yankee in
disguise, which was on an expedition to spy out
the land. Il ~:.L --d.e e5--'a "a "..
Everybody and his wife was out on the levee to
see the French officers who were expected to
arrive on tug.boat said to have been sent to bring
them up to the city, and when said tug boat did
actually appear round the point, and Vas saluted
by cannon from the Confederate ship-yard on the
other side OF the river, curiosity was rampant.
But, alas for the vanity Of human expectations,
everybody had to go home just about as wise as
they came for, when the tug-boat came to the
landing, one individual only was seen to come
ashore, and he took carriage Immediately, and
was driven of rapidly into the interior of the city
There was nothing extraordinary about his ap-
pearance. He wore nary feather, nor had on any
article of clothing which was calculated to excite
admiration. There was no grand reception by
Gen. Twiggs or Gov. Moore, nor did Mayor Munroe
meet him at the wharf and present him with the
freedom of the city in gold box. If he was
great man, (Which we are inclined to believe from
his sensible condncD he did not appear and bow
to the public, and kiss his hands to the ladies. So
the curiosity hunters were disappointed, dissatis
fed, disgusted, and soon disappeared. We will,
however inform them that three officers did come
up, and have taken lodgings with the French Con-
sui; but we shan't tell them what they want here.
MARTIAL LAw.--The Governor last evening re-
turned an answer to the request of the officers of
the First Division, who requested him last week to
declare martial law in the State. He said that he
did not consider that the necessity for such a
measure yet existed but that it was his intention
to issue an order, at an early date, for the com
pee organization of the militia, and would enforce
the order TO the full extent of his power.
For MANAssAs.-C Bruce Putnam, who dur
ing the past week has been recruiting for Wheat's
Battalion in the city, will send off a squad of men
to Manassas tomorrow morning and has requested
ug tn at ba,p 1a+ta
ages to send to their friends in the army can do so
by leaving them at No. So St. Charles street to-
day. Capt. Putnam has been quite successful in
getting men; in fact, such is the reputation OF
Wheat's crack corps, that there are plenty of
young men anxious to unite themselves with it,
and win q share of the glory.
A GooD MoyE-The police dropped down on
the bakers yesterday morning, in Poydras and
Claiborne markets, in a manner which was rather
calculated to teach them lesson. 1t is a well
known fact that the city ordinance regulating the
size and weight of oaves of bread sold in the city
was disregarded to most outrageous extent and
that the loaves of bread sold by many bakers were
much too SMALL considering the price of flour; but
the bakers went on decreasing, until it began to
appear that if they continued in this course much
longer, people would have to give their money for
nothing at all. Commssaries Shubert and SadIer,
however, commenced operations yesterday morn
ing and captured 232 Ioaves of bread, belonging
to the following bakers; B. Surigny, B. Wagner, j.
Legarde, Michel, and G, Buchardt. This we hope,
will teach salutary lesson. In the meantime, we
advise the different Commissaries to keep a sharp
lookout for it is quite likely that there are numer-
GUS other bakers who can be made to suffer in a
like manner.
