FRANCE.  After our reporter closed his despatch on Tuesday, in the National Assembly, M. Coquerel, the Protestant clergyman, advocated the restoration of the Pope by intervention. M. Bac, a member of the Mountain, declared himself op posed to any interference with the Roman Republic. The counsel who defended the murderers of General Brea had an interview with the President of the Republic on Tuesday, to present a petition in favour of the condemned. The President promised to consider the matter attentively, but he held out no hopes of a mitigation of the sentence. Accounts from Angers state that considerable activity prevails in the woollen and cotton manufactories of Chalet and Montagne, and that, in consequence, all the operatives are fully employed with an advance of wages. The ironworks in the Upper Marne are again at full work, orders having been received there which will give employment for several months to come. The Committee on the Electoral Law have proposed the following amendment to the bill :--" All functionaries receiving payment elected representatives of the people, and not comprised in the exceptions specified in the 77th and 78th causes of the present law, shall be bound to choose previous to the verification of their qualifications between their functions and their legislative appointment; in default of option, they shall be considered to have resigned their functions by the simple fact of their admission as members of the Legislative Assembly." PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENlNG.—EVerything is perfectly tranquil here, but I understand that there is extraordinary sickness in the army, owing to the troops having been put into temporary barracks before the plaster was dry. At the military hospital of the Val de Grace there are now 1,500 patients, although there is proper accommodation for only 700.  PARIS,. Thursday.

Pierre Leroux, rendering all persons convicted of adultery ineligible to the Legislative liasem- 1 big, when there appeared—for the amendment, 286; against it, 229 ; nsajority, 57. The amendment was consequently adopted% Le Credit announces, on the authority of its private correspondent at Yassy, in Moldavia, that the Russian General Luders entered Transylvania on the 14th of January, and immediately took possession of the fortress of Brachew, situated one league and a half from the frontier. The latest accounts from the above capital states that an uneasy feeling was entertained at the threatened demonstration which was to be made to-day (Saturday) by a por-a tion of the working classes, in celebration of the late revolution. The government and the Radical leaders-are against any demonstration this day, but as a portion of the population are determined to have it, a feeling of uneasiness has been created. The latest accounts, however, represent all as being quiet in Paris. From a second edition ob the Standard of last night we extract the following : " We have just received a letter from Paris of yesterday evening's date, from which we learn that several 110191Mblages of persons had taken place at Lyons, which was in a very agitated state. The military were ordered out to disperse them, when one individual was killed. It was reported that news had arrived of a. republic in Tuscany ; having been proclaimed, and that the diplomatic corpohad removed to San Stephan°, the present locale of the Grand Duke."
