For the last six days, the greatest anxiety has been felt all over Paris, and through the whole of France. People are asking each other, when they meet in the street, “ Well, shall we have an in- surrection and barrieades on the occasion of the eleetoral law? Wil! the Jacobins, (such is the old and new name of the socialists,) appear in arms im the streets?” Many political men think they Will do it, whilst several others dare say that they will be w ny how, it is certain that the are in the greatest perplexity. Will by an émeute, or by the simple opposi- | e law to the law? This alternative is ed in their meetings, as well as in the newspapers of the party, and no one can say in advance, what side of the scales will be taken by this great and wise party. The general opinion, however, is, that the chiefs will not venture the strength of their army in a very doubtful war. It is in vain that they are boasting of some votes of the army ; they know very well that the French troops are fully obedient to their chiefs, and that it would be quite dangerous to rely upon such an un- er. eertain fi y and devote The socialist press is hesitating, and the only theory of battle ublished by their editors, is furnished “in the re- | fusal to pay the taxes. Upon that ground, the socialist party are already vanquished. The refusal to pay the taxes is practicable in a constitutional eouniry, where great social powers are spread all | over the state; but socialism, being the negation of every sort of propriety, constitutes in Ifa re- fusal to pay taxes. In shert, the socialists have but one means of being consistent in themselves, and that is, to take their muskets. One may pro- test against an arbitrary power, but to protest against law mulgated by a government elected by freedom, is en open rebellion. It is an insur- rection of the en! cer op the majority. I know, positively, that the chiefs of the party, either socialists er Montagnards, are deliberating about | the determination which is to be taken. ‘Tne tail of the party would like to begin the riot, for they have nothing to loose, whilet the ‘head hesitates, and does not knew of what saint to implore and ask advice. The chiefs have the greatest fear of General | Changarnier, and of his lieutenants, for the old | soldier has declared that, if ever the riot begins, he will make an historical butchery of the enemies of France, which will be remembered three hun- | dred y hence. The government is decided to strike a strong blow, and to cause the disappearance, if possible, of all those fermentations of civil war, which are troubling the country. The state of siege, the application of military laws, the execu- | tion of the deportation, and other energetic mea- sures, would be the immediate answer to the at- tacks of the anarchists. Such is the situation in | which we are—discussing the opportunity of a civil | war. Is not this shameful! And there are people who eonsider it very natural. Awfal situation, which makes every man of sense shudder! As i told you, General Changarnier is ready for the fight. There are in Paris, or around the capital, 135,000 men ; the provisions are plentiful, the am- munition immense, and everything is ready to ex- tinguish the movement on the very day it may be- gin, in order to prevent the departments to rise also againet the government. Nevertheless, they would allow the émeute to take a developement, s0as to furnish the motive of the immediate execution of | the state of siege, not only of Paris, but also of the whole of France.’ The first act of that régime dw sabre would also be the interdiction of the freedom of the press and of individual liberty. Such _is the state of things at the present hour. The electoral law will be presented to the National Assembly, either to-morrow or Saturday, | and then we shall be on the qui vive. It is possible that my next letter will contain very important news from Varis. The pr ct of the Electoral law is very doubtful as yet. Many members are opposed to it, and 7 ther I may mention Mesers. Napo- Jeon Jerome Bonaparte and Pierre Bonaparte, who have published in the “ red * newspapers, a protes- | tation against the law, which they calla violation of | the constitution. The Voir du Peuple, the Republique, and the Extafctic, three ultra socialist newspapers, have been put, by an order of the government, already hors de combat. Several violent articles, published for the lest six days in their columns, have caused Council of the royal castle.

It appears that the German question is but the accessory aim, or rather the pretext of the Congress. A more grave censidera- tion has overtumed the seri ready expressed by some of the German princes. The idea of a federation, already considered as worthy to be al- lowed, if necessary, to the States of Thuringe, will occupy the Congress; but the conferences of the Assembly will principally be brought upon the dis- ons to be taken, in case of a a pe danger, ne 1 socialism in Germany and in France, awaking fears of the princes, has engaged them to come by themselves, to listen to the propositions of Prussia, which have been written im the prospect of a revo- lutionary movement ix Europe. The basis of these propositions may be reduced to two points; first, to re-assemble a large army in the Western provinces of Germany, not to attack, but to be ready at the first symptom of an insurrection; second, to pro- tect Germany against demoeraecy, by the means of R n army of observation. As sooa as the is over, the Prince of Prussia will go to arsaw to meet the Czar Nicholas, and let him know what has been decided at Ber! In the meantiae, a Congress of mi held at Gotha, to have an understanding about the easures adopted by their respective sovereigns. appears also, that the Prussian government is ready for all events, even to that of a rupture with the foreign powers.

Germuny will be paci- fied, and the restoration of the old constitution will be complete. The election of the Canton of Berne in Switzer- and, in which a Gor interest was taken by our politicians, took place on the Sth inst. The great council being composed of 227 deputies, has 14 members for majority. The party of the opposition numbers from 110 to 111; and among those who are ranked by the moderate party, there are many, principally in the Juro, who may be aecepted by the opposition. Several troubles took place in the electoral circles of Jezeustory and Swartenbourg. Nevertheless, order seems to be re-established in Switzerland, as it has been desired by the great powers. That eountry will be brought io the con- dition of its existence in 1915, either by an interior movement, or by the exterior action. The turn of Piedmont will also come; and, though the revolutionary party has sent to prison Monsignor Franconi, this state of things will not last long. Great Britain, through the means of Lord Abercrombie, the minister of Turin, has “its fingers in the pie,” and entices the king, Victor Em- manuel, no te be on good terms with France and Austria. It is to be feared that he will soon appreci- so = little the advices of England should be fol- lowed. The affair of Greece is settled in that country, but it will be the cause of some ‘“hubbub” be- tween France and England. The dénouement given by Lord Palmerston, either by cunning or by force to the Anglo-Greek discussion, hurts our politica! pride too much, not to be the cause ofa demand for bi apres from ‘‘perfidious Albion.” “This deplorable affair, which was begun with the most ferocious barbarity by England, and her agent, Sir W. Parker, has ended in 2 shameful way. Lord Palmerston had first only wronged Greece, but the end of this dispute is uppleasant to France, without mentioning the discontentment felt. b; Russia during the blockade, When one rei with attention the accounts of that sad affair, he cannot deny thet the insult to France is at. Well, we shall see the end of it. (Questions have been asked to-day of the Minister of Foreign Aflairs, at our National Assembly, on that subject, and he | has promised to give full satisfaction to the honor of the country. The news received from Norway assures us that there has taken place a socialist movement, which seems to give some uneasiness to the government.

In short, no one knows to what cause he can at- tribute this unforeseen and unusual weather.

We have now in Paris a musical wonder, who will coon make her début, and will undoubtedly at- tract maby amateurs wherever she will appear. ‘The name of that lady, who was born in Havana, is Miss Maria Martinez. She possesses a adi iid e voice, of soprano and contralto mixed, and the most magnificent organ ever heard. In all private places where ah has already been appre- ciated, she met with the highest success, not only on account of her method and talent, but also on account of her color—for the new prima donna is a black weman, who voculize as well as Parisians, and whom you would think to be a pupil of Rubini or Duprey.

The immense arena of the LHtppodrome re-opens te-day and promises many novelties, which will be fully given, I understand, for its managers are very enterprising men, An article, which astonished me, appeared some days ago in the French papers, relative to a pictare of Paul Delaroche, the famed painter, son-in-law of Horace Vernet. It mentioned that Paul Dela- roche hed just finished a picture representing **Na- poleon Crossing the Alps.” ‘Thereafter was given a description of the very canvass I had seen ex- posed in New York at the Academy of Design, which was bought afterwards by Mr. Woodbury Langdon, and then exhibited in Havana, and through the United States, under the able care of Mr. Le Baron Régis de Trobriant. I first believed it was an error ; but after many ing J under- stood that, Teally, the French painter had made a copy of his picture, which will be exhibited at the next salon. Thus the unique of Mr. Langdon will no longer be a umigue. So much the better for us, who will have the work of the talented artist placed in one of our public galleries. Speaking of a painter makes me remem- ber a very curious anecdote which happened a week ogo. An affair took place between a French widow, and an American painter estab- lished in to improve in his profession. Their names are not to be uttered; but I'll tell you the whole story, which is quite funny by itself. Dur- ing the last events of June, 1548, a pretty lady. married to a limonadier, used to shine in establishment of her husband, Mr. B—-, and to distribute her smiles, together with pieces of er and glasses of liquor, to the customers of her fashionable coffee house. Mr. B. was from Bel- gium, and wishing to act with patriotism, he be- came one of the most ardent patriots, and went to the affair of Risquous-Tout; but he never came back from this expedition. His wife sold the establishment, reelixed about thirty thousand F smgyer and bg oh, welt ina neieas le house in the ier ext to tment, om the Tae floor, was the studio of an ‘American Longer Mr. X——, who remarked the beauty of u . The rogue courted her in tue Yankee style. “He soon made himself beloved vy Mme.

Any how, wishing to take her precaution, Mrs. B. obtaine from Mr. X.a nee ae T; and assured by the possession of that pon an she waited peeaty until the death her husband should be regularly authenticated. Two weeks ago, Mrs. B. received the document, which she s! to Mr. X., and told him that the moment had come to keep his promise and to mar- ty her. Mr. X. was ready to keep his en ment; but two days after he disappeared. The widow, furious at being thus deceived, searched all over Paris to find her treacherous lover, whom she dis covered at last, one evening, when he was going out of his house to visit a theatre. A fight took place. The widow held Mr. X. till the con- stable took them both before the Commissaire of Police, to whom, after having explained her case, Madame B. showed the promise of marriage writ- ten by Mr. X. But what was the exasperation of Mademe B, when the public officer declared that the document had no value, by the laws of the country! “The wretch |’ exclaimed the fair wi- dow, “1’ll kill him, certainly.” 1 have understood that Mr. X. moved, the next morning, to the railway of Havre, where he went to take a packet to return to his © » where, no doubt, he will never sign a jise of marriage—for, as you know, they have more value there than here.

The tone of self-gratulation which some of the ministerial journals had thenght fit to adopt upon the conclusion of the late painfw ute with the Greek government, forms a strange contrast to the inspression, partly of perplexity and partly of die gust, which these oceurrences have produced on the public in this country, and on the governments of foreign States equally interested with ourselves in the prosperity rj Greece. Dat the guarded ex- planations given Jast night in Parliament with reference to the withdrawal of the French Ambas- seddt from London, proved thet other considera- tions of a far more serious nature are still connect- ed with this subject. It is true that M. Drouwya de VHuys’ journey may be attributed to the debate im the National Assembly, and that he may furnish information of importance to his goverament, but it is aleo trae that his departure was prece: by weeentation of notes toritten with great v nu of language, and that the French government have riot concealed their extreme irritation and displeas- ure at a setilement of the Greck question which then conceive to be inconsistent with the good offices of Fre A Russian note, of or even greater force than that of the 19th of February, has ulso been addressed to the British government. re, therefore, brought back to the question which originally appeared to us the most important part of the matter, namely, What effect the late operations in Greece are likely to produce on our relations with France and Rugsia, the other protecting pow- ers of thet kingdom? As a imatter of it is beyond all doubt that the news of the al termination of the negotia- tion, and the partial satisfaction of these elaims, without the coneurrence of the French Kavoy, produced in Paris even more surprise and irritation then the first in ¢ of Admiral Parker's the hostile proceedings in the month of Jonuary.
