IFIRARCE. Paris. Wednesday Evening.

The present moment Is deeeribed—nay, vaunted—by the government to be one of planner tranquillity; the state Is not menaced with any danger; the people are contented and happy, the have awakened from their delusive dreams of and constitutional nonsense, and moo the perfection of governmeat in the simplicity or despotism. We are told that they adore their Emperor, and yet the Minister of Police will revive the dormant scepticism of a people rushing into the arras of • long misunderstood priesthood, by doing • deed which nothing could justify but porn. extreme peril of which, is the absence of other signs, it becomes the ;eidetic*. There most, then, be lurking underneath this deceptive surfam of stagnation some deep mischief, which can only be arrested by an exceptional subversion of all law. The legal tribunals of the country are overruled, and their sentences quashed, by a police edict, which, with more than the harshness, has nothing of the dignity of an imperial decree. These are, assuredly, queer times. Letters from Toulon state that to-morrow • number of persons under sentenoe of the courts-martial for insurrectionary acts are to sail for Cayenne. It appears that an offer was made to them to remain in the bagnios of Toulon, w Mob they refused, lest they should be confounded with murderers and robbers; nevertheless, they have bees given to Understand that at Cayenne no difference will be made between political and other convicts. The suicide of the Count de Camarata continues to excite much conversation. It is said that the day before the fatal act the unfortunate young man called on a member of the imperial family to ask a loan of 50,000 f to meet • bill falling due next day, or that he would blow out his brains. Such a declaration was not regarded as serious. However, the money was sent from another quarter in the worse of the morning, but an hour or two too late. In the leading eolamus of the Paris journals of this day we see nothing worth mentioning, except stew lines of the Debate on the decree permitting the importation of China crape from the British possessions in Europe. This, the De/mt., says, is a step in the right course. The Debals says— 'ln order to comprehend the Importance of this decree, it must he remembered that our treaty of 1;896 with England stipulated the 'exclusion of the products of Asia, Africa, and America, imported by the vessels of either country for consumption in the other country, the introduction being authorised only on condition of reexportation.' It is known that by the repeal of the navigation act, England hus long since freed foreign Tinsels in her ports from this restrictive regime, which still continued in our code of customs. The derogation which we now make from the treaty of 1826, although limited to a single speciality of articles, is a first step to the way of enfranchisement, end we can only applaud it scan act tending to favour an exchange with the United Kingdom, our moat important commercial ally.' A decree of the Emperor, dated the Bth, appoints Gen. Aupick, French Ambassador at Madrid; M. Lebrun, expeer of France and member of the Institute, and Baron Thieullen, to be members of the Senate.
