a petition has been sent to the
French senate, praying that the re-
ln'A'ns OF Louis Philippe should be
brought Back to France.
Tho London STIR of the 9th of
June remarks:
There is no doubt that reports are
circulating freely iii France of tho
probability of Il rupture between that
country md Prussia. 1t is stated dis
tinctly that when Count BiSmarcl;
was i'll Paris Prince GortschakoT, at
the request of the French Govern
mont, intimated to him that it would
be acceptable to France if the closer
union of South Germany with Prussia
were rot pushed on ut present. 1t is
adacd that the Court promised that
the wishes of France in this respect
should be attended to. Yet almost
his first act on returning to Berlin was
TO conclude the customs treaty with
Bavaria, by which that country becomes
connected in the closest manner with
North Germany. This is said to lave
given great offence to France.
The ForG"c presented by tic h,m-
press of Russia to Madam Raimbaux
as testimony Of her feelings on the
occasion Of the Eaar's life being sag
Gu by tho nose cf NJ. Haimbaux's $
horse, has reached Paris. 1t consists
OF Ttric''c Of diam9nds, forming Il
necklace, the largest ofwhich weighs
ten carats, aud is valued ut $500.

two ,carats the clasp * tho necklace
is large sapphire: to which hangs a
medal, surrounded with four rows of
pearls and diamonds. In addition to
the above there is a splendid hair
comb mounted with pearls and dia-
monds. The two arc valued at GIG
| OOO. 1t is known that the custom Of
the court Of Russia when making Il
present Of iowclry is to mention The
name Of the iowcllcr, with whom the

asked, to pay tho fill estimated valun

This is n delicate and in many cases q
most acceptable oilcrin& Of Il large
