LONDON, Monday, pec 20. 1862
It is reported that France is urging the Great
Powers to dsarm and offers to set the example, but
Berlin journals discredit the report.
PARIS. Monday, Dec. 20. 1862
It is rumored that the Empress was instrumental
in having the Spanish refugees ordered out OF
France, but the report is unounded. The informed
ding of these refugees with revolutOniss here was
the real cause Of their expulsion,
The Emperor has established by decree Commits
sion to encourage and aid all military societies OF

France and to this end the Emperor grants 10000
francs to the Commission, of which he is to be Hon
orary President.
NJ ROCHEFORT'S INTERPOLATION IN FAVOR OF
THE SPANISH REPUBLICANS.
In the CORPS Legislatif to-day, NJ Henri Rochefort
addressed an Interpolation to the Government, rel
alive to the expulsion from French territory of the
political refugee, Senior Paul Angelo, Deputy to the
Spanish COrtes. He said the Government permitted
ex Queen Isabella and the Carsts to conspre in the
country against Spain but exercised all its severity
against the Spanish Republicans.
NJ. Rochefort concluded with these words: "You
have only one fear-ti is the Republic She is near
at hand. and will avenge the wrongs OF frenchmen
and Spaniards"
NJ FORBADE, Minister of the Interior, replied that
Senior Paul Angelo expelled because he shared
in the dsloyal aspirations of French Republicans
and expressed them openly. In proof of this NJ For
cade quoted from speech made by Senior Paul at a
banquet of Free Thinkers, in which the early proc
lamation of the Republic in France is predicted.
The Minister denounced the red flag of revolution,
and ended with the threat that the moment the Re
publicans exchanged speech for action. the Govern
ment would reduce them to impotence.

mankind and the author of revolution. At the con-

by emotion gave his solemn benediction His visitors
were greatly moved, and at the conclusion OF the
ceremony broke forth into prolonged and enthusiast
tic yivas.
