WAS IT A HoAx?-AFFAIRs IN FRANCE.
LONDON, June 25.-The Government authori-
ties received an anonymous letter, on Wed
nesday, giving warming that an attempt
would be made in Cheshire to upset the train

A Paris dispatch says that the embarrass-
ment of the Bonpartists is increasingly mani
fest. Paul De Cassagnac is reproached with
indiscretion in putting forward the claim OF
Prince Victor Bonaparte to the imperial sue
cession. In the Sunday issue of the Pays, De
Cassagnac admits that nothing has been Of
ficially decided, though, perhaps, a decision
may be made in a few days. 1t is believed that
Rouher announced ignorance of the will in
favor OF Prince Victor, because he considered
&c Prince Jerome
Napoleon consents to waive his claims. Prince
Jerome is very reticent since his arrival in
Paris and is apparently awaiting the action of
Rouher. 1t is not believed Prince Jerome will
agree to be pretender himself or permit his
son to become one. In event of Prince Victor
endeavoring to temporize in not distinctly
accepting the position, the Bonapartists will
probably fall back on Prince Charles Napoleon,
president of the Corsican Council. General
Prince Charles is 40 years of age. He has no
sons or royal connections, and is a much less
eligible candidate than Prince Victor.
