FRANCE.
ORIciaI Report of the Minister of Finance


telegram from Paris, dated January IL,
gives the following synopsis OF the official
report of the French Minister of Finance
The official report OF NJ Magne, Minister OF
Finance, published to-day, states that the float
ing debt has been reduced from 902 0O0, 900 TO
727, 200, 600 francs, and that the revenue from
indirect taxes in 1868 has exceeded that Of 1867
by 34000,0 060. The estimate of 1869 will not
require a corrected budget, because the supple
mentary credits which will be asked for do not
amount to 28,000,000, and are therefore amply
covered by the increased receipts from taxes.
The estimates of the ordinary budget for 1870
ture, l,65O,00O,OOO francs. The surplus
the surplus left from the preceding
budgets, will be applied to the requirements OF
the extraordinary budget. The sinking fund
for 1870 will amount to A. 600, 900 francs, which
is to be applied to the purchase of rentes. The
Minister remarks on the year 1868, that ''it was
characterized alternately by confidence and
fears, activity and stagnation. However,
public opinion has by degrees accustomed itself
TO judge political affairs more correctly. A
sensible recovery has been observed, prlnci-
pally during the latter months of the year. This
result, due to the revival OF confidence, proves
how much peace is necessary 10 this country,
and TO what degree prosperity will be developed
by 1t, and how much public opinion is right to
approve the efforts of your Majesty to prevent,
as much as depends on you, by friendly inter
yentiOn, any conflict by which peace might be
disturbed"
More Press Prosecutions.
From the London Ne,0S Of Jan. II.
The editor of the DiaJle Qudrtre, u. Pieifer,
was summoned yesterday before the Tribunal Of
the Police Correctionelle, on charge of having,
in a recent number of that jourual published
a libel against the person of the Emperor.
NJ Lockroy and the printer of the journal
were charged as accomplces, the former for
having written the offending article, and the
latter for having printed it. The Court, having
heard the imperial advocate, NJ. HerOetot. and
the counsel tor the defense, NJ. Laurier for
NJ. Lockroy, and NJ. Lachaud for NJ. Pfeifer aud
the printer, condemned the writer of the article,
M. Lockroy, to four months of Imprisonment
NJ. Pfeifer to two months, the printer to one
month, and all three to the payment of 5000
francs fine. 1t seems as if the Di1bte a Qudrtre
were determined to emulate its torerunner and
model, the too famous Ldntefne | hear that a
circular has been sent out to the diplomatic
agents of the Government abroad, ia the effect
that no prosecution for libels published against
the Emperor IN foreign papers should be instI-

peoples iives-o which the Spaniard Is more
capable than ANY other race IN Europe when
his blood Is up. The hopelessness of the
contest seems to have struck some OF the
popular leaders from the beginning. The
volunteer battallons we're forsaken by their
superior officers, and the consequence was
desertion IRON the barricades almost en- nld9se
1t seems that a priest, by name Don Enrique
Romero, went among the people, aud by his
words, spoken and written, prevailed on the
popular combatants to go forth again. No less
than three priests were conspicuous at the bar
ricades. We hear of one firing upon the troops
from window in the Church of the Carmen; OF
another whose weapon was an atr-gun, with
which he was enabled 10 do great execution
before the attention of the soldiers was directed
against him; we hear of children ten years old
being raised by their fathers above the barri'
cades, holding mere toy pieces, which, however,
they managed to discharge at their assailants;
we hear Of young girls with cartridge-boXes
at their waists and pistols in their hands.
We hear of soldiers advancing under shelter
of the prisoners they had taken, and the
bullets Of the volunteers finding their way to
the soldiers bodies through the bodies of their
sacrificed companions. We hear of girls rushing
forward to clasp the soldiers in their arms, that
their lovers might despatch them by stabbing
them in their backs. Nothing but despair
could suggest the insane resistance which
took place. Instances are mentioned in which,
as in some OF the narrowest lanes of the district
of Perchel, handful of volunteers held their
ground against 800 soldiers. Most of the
wounds were inflicted by the bayonet; not
few were dealt in cold blood after the conflict.
The greatest number of the dead belong to the
most abandoned class of society. The Govern
ment Teckons the killed on its own side at forty
eight and the wounded at one hundred aud
fifty.
Manifesto of the Republican Party.
The Pueblo of Madrid publishes manifesto
which has been Issued by the republican party
in view of the approaching elections In Spain.
The substance of the advice given to the cleo
tors is to reject all doubtful candidates aud
to sacrifice personal rivalry and ambition in
order that the whole strength OF the party
may be turned to account. The electoral
operations are to be closely watched, and all
illegal influences strenuously opposed. On
the other hand, the fullest use Is to be made of
the means of legitimate agitation supplied by
the press, by public meetings, and political
organization. Union is to be the watchwordd
of the party, and constitute its strength amid
the "divisions which are undermining the
monarchical party" The proclamation con.
cudes by eXhorting the citizens to exert
themselves to the utmost in order to obtain the
triumph of the republican candidates, and says
that IL they are successful the last vestiges of
the old regime will be swept away and SPAN
will be saved

Education in Ireland.

On the 9th of August last The
Catholic Archbishops and Bishops
of Ireland assembled at St. Pat
frich's College, Maynooth. They
held council on the paramount 3
snbject of ma ito n al education.
They condemned the mixed sys.
tenn, and asserted the necessity
and right OF Catholic youth, to be
instructed by Catholic teachers.
The primary and intermediate, as
well as university establishments
are declared dangerous to the faith
and morals of the children of the
Church.
There is something peculiarly
significant in this solemn council
of the national leaders of public
opinion in Ireland upon this sub-
ject. To ts, it seems, that there is
something of justice and right in
the demand for q Catholic Univer-
sity with equal degrees, endow-
ments and privileges.
| This business has to our eve the
identical features of tb e Irish
Church Establishment. In one
case the people were taxed to sup
port a Church their consciences
repudiated--in the other, they are
taxed to support a school or uni
versity the same consciences re-
ject. What is the differences IT

THE KNOXVILLE AND CHARLES
TON RAILRoAD.--We learn from
President Bearden, of the Knox
vile and Charleston Railroad, that
contracts have been made with
firm of contractors of immense
wealth and resources, and of tho
highest reputation for skill as rail-
road builders, whereby the uncom-
pletcd portions of the road from
Maryville, Tenn, to Walhalla, g..
O., are TO be completed and placed
in running order by the 1st of
August, 1871, thus making an all-
rail line in complete running order
between Knoxville and Charleston.
President Bearden received a let
ter yesterday from the Chief En-
gineer of the road, who is now en-
gagged in finishing necessary sur
veys, stating that the plan of a
tunnel through Shimp III o n o

abandoned, as n new route has
oeen discovered, by which the
mountain can be fanked and the
rails laid at third of the cost of
