PARIS, TUESDAY EVIINING.  There is no news yet of the Emperor's sport with Baron de Rothschild. Unfortunately, a hard frost set in last night, and there can have been no scent except in the woods ; but there is no doubt that an immense bag was made in an incredibly short space of time. The estate swarms with game of all kinds, and nobody in France keeps a sharper look ont against poachers than the baron. In order to vary the sport of shooting tame pheasants, gold and sil-1 var ones, as well as the Chinese variety, live grouse, and blackeocie in great numbers were brought alive from Scotland, and turned out in a wide expanse of short copse, about two feet high, where they were easy of access, and in which those that had strength enough left to get upon the wing would not have the slightest chance of escape. This evening, on his retuin from the Chateau de' Foulkes, the Emperor, acoompanied by the Empress, will go to the Opoira Comique to witness the performance of the Dame Blanche for the "thousandth" time at that theatre. On this occaaion some stanzas, composed in honour of Boieledion by the poet ?dory, will be recited. The Constitutionnel is instructed to say that there  is no truth whatever in rumours of a forthcoming loan, circulated by the inevitable "foreign journals," and to its general denial it adds two special OEM concerning rumoured loans of 60 millions and 400 million& Of course the public know not what the truth may be, but we cannot but remember that all former loans have been preceded by persistent rumours and a series of official denials. In the present case I am much inclined to adopt, as applicable to France, what the France says in reference to Italy :—" We do not doubt that by combinations of the Treasury it may be possible to provide for present wants ; but the fact is there is a deficit, and sooner or later it must be filled up." The France, which notoriously belongs to the snbventioned gang whose mission is to write down Italian unity, gravely announces, as a symptom of public opinion in Italy, that a new journal, to be called the Firenze, is coming out at Florence, which will advocate the principles of the Napoli of Naples. The " opinions" and " principles " of these journals, the France included, are precisely of the same value as those of a defunct French organ in London, the proprietor of which is bringing an action for damages occasioned to his property by the work which he performed. ..  The Bourse has been dulL The effect, generally tending to a rise, of the dividend struck to-day was produced yesterday, and the Route closed heavily with a fall of Ik., both for cash and account, at 69fr. 80c. and 69fr. Bk. ex div. Mobilier fell 10fr. The Italian Loan rose 30c., owing to a report that there is to be no loan. The Orleans Railway fell Mr., and the other lines from 'fr. 2k. to 2fr. 50c. The Court of Assizes of the Seine yesterday tried the young actor Dumont, charged with an attempt to murderM. Franck, another actor, of the Thattre Mont-Parnasse, on the night of the Gth July last. The prisoner was put on his trial at the November anises, but, doubts being entertained as to his sanity, the further hearing of the case was postponed Ito obtain medical opinions on that point. Dr. Parchappe, inspector of lunatic asylums, was accordingly appointed to examine the prisoner, and yesterday his report was presented to the court, declaring the prisoner not to be insane. As all the circumstances of the crime were given at length last month, it is only necessary now to state that, after an able speech from Mr. Jones, the prisoner's counsel, the jury set aside the count of attempting to murder, but found the accused guilty of wilfully wounding, and the court sentenced him to four years' imprisonment.  .-(
