According to the despatches from Lyons, the Rhone was on the 26th very high, and had overflowed its hanks. The Saone was also very high, but a despatch of this morning announces that to-day the Rhone has returned to its Led, and that the rise of the Saone is no longer a lar m ing.—Messager. The Lyons papers contain several details of injuries done by the rising of the Rhone, and other rivers in that neighbourhood. The town of Bourg is said to have suffered much ; but at Lyons no serious damage beyond the breaking of. embankments was done up to Tuesday. On account of the floods and bad weather in the south of France the Marseilles mails are much delayed on the road, and for the last two days have not arrived in Paris till near ten in the morning.  rIAUTION.—The extraordinary demand for ki PARR'S LIFE PILLS has induced several shopkeepers, of mean and dishonest principles, to try to impose on the incautious various counterfeits composed of the most pernicious ingredients, merely for the sake of reaping an extra profit, totally regardless of the dreadful consequences which must ensue. Observe, that each Box of the genuine medicine has pasted round it the Government Stamp, in which is engraved these words, PARR'S LIFE PILLS, in white letters on a red ground. None other can be genuine. In no instance has this invaluable medicine failed to effect a perfect cure where due patience and perseverance has been exercised.
