The storm which raged all over Paris, on Friday fast, wes one of the most terrible of the kind ever witneteod by the oldest men now living hero. The rain pourod in torrents, and the stroots and the Boulevards were like small rivuleta; and, very curi- ous to state, the thunder was heard in several di- reotions. This may be attributed to tho heat of the weather, which caused electricity to take place; but it was eo much out of season that it must be montioced, in order to “enlighten” the body of savans of all nations. In the Tuileries the sight was really paiuful to behold, for the whole gronnd was covered with branches of tho horzo choetnu’ trees, and ail the wooden chairs, which wore piled for tho winter scason, were scattered und broken into picows. The same thing happened in tho Champs Elysées, and tho Seine, for 9 day anda half, wgs overflowing the quays of the city. It isreported that this same storm was felt in all the Borthero departments of France, and also in Ba!- gium, where, at Brussells, Mous, Namur, and other Cities, the flood of the Meus caused many disas- ters. At Maestrick and Fiessingue the sca was 5 ra tbat many wrecks took place om the shores In ghort, toe storm of the 7th and Sth of Februar. 1852, will rank among the most intenee evor behel i in Europe. To such a rainy and moist tempera ture bas ‘succeeded dry, cold woather, whion i net much to be appreciated by thoee who haven very thick and warm clothes. Last evening th» thermometer was 14) below zero, and the wind, which came from the north, ina direct line, added to tho severity of the weather. No doubt this will lagt ‘for somo time—at least for a fortnight—and it is feared that ali the buds of the troes and plants will bo frozen and dio. As for the crops, their prospects are very bad; und it is believed that flocrand grain from America wi!l sell well next your. Ye Yankees, look out for—good bargains. Despite this cold weather, which will only havo ® momentansons appearance. itis feared that tho trade of ice will bo very difiloult next summor ‘Those who are storing b.ocks of ice in France, tor the uso of the large cities, have been unable to fill their ice-bonso:, and orders have been sent to Nor- way for a cargo of that indispensable article. I have no doubt that if the Rockland Lake Ise Com- pany, of New York, was making arrangements to send ice to Havre, and thence to Paris, the cloar and sweet blocks of Croton water would soll well, and cheaper than any other ice. Wo noed to have good frozen water in Paris, for that wo obtain in summer time is dirty, and disagreeable to drink. The merry bolis of tho Carnival are nightly ra- founding in the ears of the passers by inthe diffe- rent streets of Paris; and, with tho exception of the Faubourg St. Gormain, evory ono is dancing and spending, or rather * killing the timo” ia the best manner. We had, last week, two very bril- diant parties, which offered a really enchanting sight. The first wasthe grand ball givea at the Jardin d’Hivor, for the benefit of the poor of the Twolfth ward. This féfe was magnificent in the extreme, and was attended by an immense number of people of the highest rank in Paris. Nothiog was, indeed, more admirable than the innumerable lights of the hall, and the half darkness of tho “‘bushos” composed of exotis trees, under which the fair sex and thoir admirors were prowenading amidst tho freahness of tho foliage and the damp- ness of the cascades. The orchostra was directed By Datrernes tho excellent piston player, and it was feot. At the Opora ‘Comiquo, on the same night, (Sa- turday, February 7,) tno bail given by the Asso- ¢iation of Mutual Assistance between tho dramatic artists, was also anotber splendid affair. All the pretty aotreesee—and their number is quite large in ‘aris--wore present at the party, which was also attended by a good many straogors, and particu- erly Americans. It will bo, perhaps, curious to my readers to know how many pretty women we have in our theatres, and i therefore copy the list of these exobantresses, which is worth being kept by all the lovers cf the fair scx. There wore present, admired and admirablo, covered with flowers and diamonds, Masson, Priora, Kachel, M.

Among the strangers prosent, was & Russian prince, whose eccontric eostume attracted all tho sight-seerr, and caused also many “sighs” among the frail par’ of these mermaids. This will be casily undorstood, when [ will say that this gentleman wore on his broast three large diamonds as big a8 hazelnuts, to which was hanging a chain mado with brilliants ; the two button holes of his dress coat wore fastened to- gether by a knot made with two other large dia- monds, and last, not least, the buttons of his black dross coat were mado with a mozsic of diamonds. Everything w: ynuine. Thero was no paste, aad I may assure my readors that he was more looked at than all the pretty women of the ball. A China; man in his native land costamo was also prosent, and I was told by a gontlomen from New York, who having for a long tims travelled in China, knew how to understand the “ Colestial” being, that ho had ome to France to study our manners and visit our manufactures. The ball of the Artists went off in beautiful style, and only ended at half-past six in the morning. Before leaving, leagure aside, I have to mention fon of one of the Thousand hore the imita' : r Nights, which was given in Vionna, on tho 27th ult, by Prince Liochtenatein, in his pa- Jace of Schoukonstraes, which cost him about eight millions of franca to have it repaired and ronovated. ‘There wero six hundred persons invited by the Prinoe, and among them the gentleman from whom 1 got the particulars. Nover had such a quantity of flowers, eorvants and refreshments been served vp to guests by euch s noble host. Tuero Wero present, first the Emperor of Austria, who danced the whole night, the Archdutobess Sophia, his mothor, Metternichand M. De Mantouffel. The supper was sémirable, consisting of a dolisious pembloge of all tho exquisite viands and wines o the world. Streuss was tne leader of the orchestra, and tho (owl ensemble passed off like a drcam—alas ! but too short. I had announced in my preeoding letter that Mrs. Ridgeway and Mrs. Wilson were to opon thoir par- the sporting circles of Paris; and I witnessed, | last weok, a performance which was very intercsting for these who profess to be nmateurs. Suven pairs of birds were placed on the table, and their duols were as bloody as possible, for there were but two vapquishers among them I was not muoh pleased with this “sight” of Paris; and I declare that the police ought to interfere and prevent ¢10 exhibition of such cruelty to animals. ‘There is a law fordid- ding a man to whip a horse, but there is no artisle for the poor eock The Purisians who belong to the olass of bataur, or, in good English, to that of idie oockaoeys, were much perplexed the other week, im oon- sequence of the appearance on tho heights of Mount Vaterian, and tho Butto Sc Caoaumons (seven miles distance), a8 well as on many other heighia aroand Parw, of solored lights, which caured them to think that they were siguals of the enemice of the government: Thia was not the ease. These blue, red, and white lights were tho effect of experiments made by @a inventor, who proposes to have a “colored alphabet ” for tho communication betweentwo sbips whon they most at sea, ‘l'be experiments have fully succeeded, aad will soon be introduced in the French navy. The theatrical intelligence amounts to vory little this woek At the Variétés theatre, a now play, in five acts, called ** Paris Asloop,” was performod last evon- ing, and recoived with much applause. Tho prin- cipal characters were performed by the best actors of the company, and the plot is interesting aad funny Arvol, the ioimitable comic actor, has re- sumed his odd and laughoble farce of, ‘Los Cabinets Particaliers” (Private ltooms) and was enthusi- asticaliy welcomed. At the Ainbigu theatre, the molo drama of “ La Dame de Ja Halle,” @ five act play, wasperformed on Saturday last, and elicited much applause. Mme. Gupyon, ono of the most admirable sotresses of Paris, who played the principal part, received an ovation which was as deserved as onthaviastic. She wes supported with much talent by tho whole steck ef actors. I will end this long letter by tho nows that Musard has decided to visit America during tho next aatumn. His orchestra at the Grand Opera hag no equal in the world, audhe must be knowa tothe United States. H.R. AMERICANS IN PARIB. J. A Briffs, Nortoil B. 6B Brown, Now York, W. B. Divemore, N York, i.

The Rebellion in the Chinese Empire— Slaughter of the Solalers. [From the Friend of Ubina, Nov 12] One of the chiefs of tho rebel army, Fong wing- fan, a man of great skill and wisdom, and well versed in astronomy and geography, is a native of the Fi district of the Canton provinse. In ordor to injure him in the most severe manner, the Gevor- nor General directed the appointment of a commis- sion to proceed to his native village, and there destroy the tombs of his ancestry, which was duly effected, and on tho 20th ult, the grave-desecrating body returned to Canton, bearing with them tho wife and two sons of the said Fong-wing-san. It was reported in Canton, when thoy were brought in, that it was Tion-teh’s family who had besa captured; but ‘Tien-teh bas been a membor of so weny clans, that we are disposed to think tho great body of the rebels are in ignorance who ths holder of the designation really is. Perhaps Tion- toh, ‘“Heaven’s virtue,” applies to a cabal, and when they havo succeeded in their designs, the strongest of the body will take the throne. ‘Tion-teh has at various times boen a member of the clan Cheang, of the clan Chun, of the clan Lo, of tho clan Fong, and of several other clang. Tho Imperial Commissioner, Chau-tien-tsioh, in & memorial to the throne, dessribes the leader of the rebels as a momber of the Fong family—ergo, the individual now mentioned. The editor of the Chinese Repository, in spoaking of Tien-teh in his lest number, say: Persone apparently well informed say that ho is fair in bis dealings, restrains his soldiers trom rapine, and levies no more than the legal demands ot the usual rulers. Le has coined money, instituted literary examina:ion, and appointed hte six boards; but with allthis, we cam hardly aeceriain where his head-quarters «xe; they are most likely, however, to be stiil in Kweiping district. One of our Chinese correspondents tells of a eao- coatfal attack made by a body of 5,000 rebols on tho chief city of the Wing on department in tho provines of Kwangee. ‘Two or three hundred of the ineurgenta, dressed respectably, and professing to bo traders, bad entered the city various times, and were ready to oo-operate with the main body when they mate the assault, which oecarrod on the 23d ult. ‘The Imperial troops, stationed in great numbers in the city, suffered severo loss. The fol- lowing casualties are reported:— Killed: the governor, one gincral of division, two colonels, one major, eight cop'ains, & graduate, and nearly 3,000 solaurs. The whole contents of the government treasury fell into the hance of the rebels, who allowed tho prisoners in the gaolsa general delivery. The whole of the rich families in the neighbor- hood were also lsid under a ymart contribution We have received a letter from a cotton mer- chant of Kwang-si, stating that eight bands of rebel, each of from 2,020 to 10,000 men have risor in the departments of Nanhing and Seching, and among the districtagof Chokong, Yow kong, and Se-lum, on the northwest of Kwang-se. In conse- quence of which all the inhabitants and merchants of those places are in great distress. The treasurer has headed an army ot more than 10,000 men, aad proceeded there, and has also given orders to the officers there to gather some 30,000 men more from the people, to guard the place. Inconsequence of these arrangements, the people have begun to re- cover a litle irom their iright. ‘There arose also four or five bands of robelain the north-east of Kwang-se, in the department of ’Ng- chou, tte every place they came to, so that the poorer people of the towns were obliged to tako their sons and daughters and make their escape in different directions. The rebels have not only plundered the towns of Kum-long-tou, Lou-kung- pou, Shek-yeong, and others, but thoy have act them on fire also. The people bave no hope of their lives, and many good men are compolled to become rebels. ‘The rebels are increasing daily. The (Tartar) general bas neither shill nor troops, knowing only howto get money. In future, the mershants must not carry any more trade to this proviace. Wo have heard that, on the 24th day of the cighth month, the (Tartar) general orderod his chief guard (Shan-ying) te go across the Kwai river, with 5,000 troops, to the department of Se- yun, to subdue the rebels; but whon he had pro- ceeded a little way, the rebels sent a quantity of fro rafts down the curront against their ships, so that he was obliged to cast anchor by the rivor side. Unoxpected!y, however, the rebels rose from their smbuecade, and made an attack upon thom; andthe crews, being unable to resist, attempted immediate flight, so that great numbers were drowned in the river. The chief officer (Sing-ying) bas succeeded in making his escape. All the flags, ammunition, prov ns, and treasure of the army, were lost. ‘Thia nows we learned from & messenger of Ta-tong, of Kwang-ss, who came to Canton with documents On the 25:h ult., four vessels that left Canton four day¢ previously, with provisions and money tor the imperial troops scationed on the borders of Kwarg ci, just asthey reached the Wong-chun-sa river, in the department Senling, were captured by the rebels, who killed sovoral of the crow, and wourded the commander. After teking poesession of the epecie—viz , 200,000 atrings of copper cash, and 100,000 taels sycoe eilvor—tne vessels were set on fire, and burat to the water's edge Governor Yeh has determined that the sum lort shall be mado up by the people of the district where the plunder was ¢ileoted. {From the same paper, Nov. 15 ] lors during the course of thowintor.

But tho inhabitants of Mongolia when they hoard of the treachory of Keshing, determined on becoming ro- bels indeed; and, forming armed bodies, they merohed straight to Ten chow-tan, and to various other places, and gained several victories over the Tartar Chinese troops. Thoy aro now eaid to bo assembling in great numbers, but their ultimato purpose is not known. Whe Effect in England of the Manifesto of the Mormon Judges. ¢ [¥rom the London Ubrenivls, Jan. 23] The writers and spoakere—no longer assumin; to be merely speoulative, but claiming to bo emi- neptly praotical—who attrioute all animosity be- tween communiiies to tha ineGaceable distinctions of rage, are nowhere more strikwely confuted than in the relations betwoon the great di United States ‘ho American republ differences of blood by @ process 40 rap! hat tho narrowest ecrutiny can scarcely detect any one of its stages beyond the beginning and the end; but, onthe ether hand, it comprises two population which, astar as habits, sentiments, and politica leanings can make them, are two self-contained vationalities; and of these the diversity is entirely referable to an institution artificial in its character, removable by positive law, and introdug:d within & period so recent as to be distinotly cognizable by his- tory. Tho bondage of the negrocsmakes two nations of North and South; circumstances equally fortait- ous, though not equally homogencous, are setting up an fepssanable barrier of manuera between Mast and Weet; and now ove of tho doopest and most hopelees incompatibilities of which poople living under the samo eky aro capablo, seems to have been created by a creed not too old for the youngest of us to remember its origin in tho solf. convicting im-~ postures of a profligate vagaboud. Tho carly euc- cess, the subsequent sufferings, and the oventunl exodas of the Mormons, were first laid boforo the English reador, in a conscoutive narrative, by one of the special correspondents of the Morning Chronicle. Hig account left thom settled on the borders of the Great Salt Lake, under theehado w of the Rocky Mountains, governed by their own hior- archy, practising the rites of their faith and tho peculiar social institutions which it sanctions, re- cruited in numbers by plentiful acccasions from the Eastern States and from England, turning the wil- derness into a gardon by asviduous culture, and affecting a lofty disdain for the gold of California, which they wero tho first to detect among tue glit- elk sands of their water courses. Since then, wo have heard of them, at intervals, as claimants for a place within the broad pale of the republican government, and as recipionts of the provisional organization which they had demanded. And now at last—four years from the break in their history, they re-appear. in the roport of the United States eee to the President of tho ropublie, as indulg- ing in the licence of Oriental manners undor tho laws of an Anglo-Saxon democracy, as uttorly alienated in feeling from the American govern- ment, obedient to a rule of conduct completely in- corsiatent with its principlo, pillaging its pablic funds, cutraging ite cficors, and oarring the me- mory of its immortal founder. ‘Thore is no reagon to doubt that, whon tho Mor- mons fled from the banks of the Mississippi to their precent settlements, they believed themselves, after the typo which they keep constantly in view, to buve escaped for ever into the wilderness from a moro than bgyptian oppression. When they after- wards solicited admittance into the Union, there Was no want of complacent remark, on the other side of the Atlantic, that native born Americans, however perverted by creed, could neyorbe debased into resigning thoir natural pride in the oitizensaip cf the great repubtic, or their claim to the privileges which it confers. Whatever mig’ the force of these motives among the rank and file ofthe * Saimts,” it may be tsken for granted that the chiefs of their hierarchy, nevor drficisnt in ca- pacity or penetration, had discovered that # post- tion 6f inagesendenco, in the territory which they occupied, had become untenable. They had bean gradually enveloped on ali sides. The riohes of Ualifornia, which the Mormons were loag oarofal to conceal, had peopled the Pacifico seaboard with thourands of the most active and enoroachiog epirite among the population from which they had fled. The cestions of Mexico had flanked them on the South with the possessions of the republic Their own vettlements were fast becoming a regular Station on the overland route to the gold mines, and they wust have known that, wherever sucha road was onoe struck, it was sure to fix the diieo tion of permanent emigration from the Westorn States. it was impoasiblo but that a host of strangers should goon invade their borders, laying claim to all the privileges of tho ‘ Saints,” but disloyal to their government and disdainful of their faith. It was probably on a consideration of all those dangers that Brigham Young and his colleagues determined to apply to Congress fora law to con- sutute the settiement a territory or provisional State. Swill distant and still little cared for, they might hope to get the organization of the now do- pendency entrusted to the members of the Mor- won Church, and thus the very instruments, from which they feared so much, might be tucned against the intruders whom they were expecting. The scheme seems to havo eo fer succecded that Brig- bam Young, the person invested by bis Church with the prophetic office, was named Governor or Executive Head of the territory; but, unforta nately forthe Mormone—though fortunately, per- hops, fer the eventual civilization of the vast tract of country at the eastern bare of the Rocky Moun- tains—the Supreme Court of the United States, whose fonctions always follow and control those of executive authority, derspatohed judicial officers to Utah who had no original connection with it what- ever. The report of these gontlemen, drawn up on thoir retirement from tho territory in disgust, is a singular record of mortifications heaped on them- selves, and of grose insults offered to the powers which they represented. 1: is difficult to see how tho ecntral government, consistentiy with its dignity, | can avoid irflicting condign punishment on the | Mormons. They appropriated to the purposes of their Church a funa which Congress Led voted for the erection of public buildings. ‘Thoy arrested an official who was charged with the conveyance of public moneys in the avowed design of confiscating them. They contemptuously refused to put in oxo cution the evactments of Congress fundamontally applicable to the new territory. Ihoy selected the most public and solemn ceremonies ne occasions for putting slights npen the judges. They openly owned the United States government, and oxe- crated the namo of George Washington. ‘Tho ap- parently graiuitous folly of theso precoodings, which seems bardly reconcilable with tne known acuteness of the Mormon chiefs, is no doubt to be explained by their conviction, thas it wee beter to brave ihe vengeance of the republic than to let their authority bo impaired by tho loast deferonce to ite officers or its behests. Much, too, of the vio~ lent Innguage employed is only characteristic of the strate ot Anglo-Saxon socivty from which the bulk of the Mormons have been taken. There are, boworer, many reflections suggested by the report | which are not co easily disposed of. How is this strange people to be dealt with ? That they can ever be amalgamated or live in | peace with the “Gentiles” communities wh: shortly be rising on all sides of them, no one suppoee fora moment who has thought on the ture and tendencies of a society which is based on polygamy. Indeed, if natural repulsion could be | tubdued, the very friendliness which would ow, | coupled with the latitude allowed to individual | action by the Amorican institayions, wowd meke | the example of such a society a peril of signal im- mincnoy and magnitude. It is forwunate, that the antipathies betwoon the Moriao: neighbors must prove unconquerad: multiply with cash encceeding gon n.

The Corn Trade of Europe, [From the London Gazette, Feb 13,2 i] ‘The tone of the grain trads has undergone no pacticu- lar change eince this day week The pauss ta the up- ward movement ia the value of wheat, which we then noticed, has not as yet been followed by aoy uctual d- cline, but the tendency han certainly been that way. Meanwhile no real alteration bas taken plaos in our posi- tion; thetupplies from abroad have bern on the same moderate seule as for some time past, nor is there any piospect of an early inoreate in the importatioas. Tae wont of activity muat, therefore, we think, be attributed to the natural reaction which goserally succeeds to a rie 9nd it is probable that, until the millers shall have wor! ed up & portion of the wheat which they bought darlag the latter part cf January, they will conduct their ope rations cautiously, Wedo not, however, calculate on any Ceoling of moment from the rates pow current, as the markets are not likely to be supplied largely for a mouth or two to come, From abroad noarrivals of consequence can well rcach us before April or Muy, and the prepara- tion of the Land for spring sowing will engage farmers too clotely to allow of increared deliveries wutil that work shall have been accomplished, We sre, therefore, dis poeed to reck«mon a good healthy traits, and wo should certaivly not be surprisad to witnere e further moderate rie in prices of wheat, if the weather should continue Gry, as much of tho present unwillingness to purchase fs Ungvestionabiy caued by the indiflcrent condition to which the wheat of last yeur's growth has been raduosd by the damp atmosphere vo long expsrionced ‘The in- clinetion to speculate appears to have almost totally eub- sided, and the deimand for ehipwent to the continent, news also to be at an end; indeed, we know ofone or two instunoee of cargoes, orttinally bonght for shipment to Belgium, whion have been offered for re-sale, and we think Wet thore who anticipated an extensive and con- tinued foreign demand have airesdy di red the fallacy of their osioulati ns edvioes received T from the near continenial ports this wee: Te of a iavoh more subdued toue, and we ere dis ib to Ox: pect that we shail receive supplies rather than be called upon to furnish any — Loeso views, our read- ers will recollect, we bave held ull ‘along; we have repeatedly repudiated the idea of co-vation of foreign imports, and we still maintain that the free: trade eupply will, as the rule, be always faexcess of demand.

Businoss at Mark-lane bas been very quiet throughout the week On Monday there was an unusually small snow by land carringe enmples from Kerex, and only a moderate quaa. tity from the other near counties Factors were, coni- quently, not disposed to make any concession, and tbcugh the condition wes far from satisfactory, the rates of that day se’nnight were iasisted on; these Were reiuo tantly paid by the millers, and a few runs remained unsold #t the close (a Weduesday the attendance was very thin, and the operations were too unimportant to warrant alteration in quotations. Tais morning the show consisted of wheat left over trom previous tupplien; holders remained firm, but the demand was vory slow, Towards the close of the past week a couple of cargoes of Dentuic wheat were receired from Holland, one from Rostock, and one from Hambur,, but since then only 2,750 quarters have come to hend from abroad. The recent arrivals bave gone- rally been held above the present market value, and will probably be landed for the chance of higher ratea hereaiter. The demand for old foreign wheat ip granary hasbeen of a retail character; the millors bave, however, been obliged to take sreall quantities for mixivg, and, holders hsving remained firm, former terms heve been ateadiiy «vpported. The inquiry for floating cargoes Ou parsage has not been lively.and comparatively few bargains Have been closed.

The nominal top quotation of floar has un- dergone no change; other rorts, though lors inquired for than before, bave not been offered cheaper. The display of English barley samples bas been small.

The MUlnery B ‘Thore are in Paris 879 millinery establishments, of which #67 are managed by fumales. ‘The houses occupy a personnel of 2,717 of workwomen, and tho business for Paris alono amounts to nearly 18,000,000f. s year. Under the head of millinery is included the making of bonnets of different kinds, caps, bead dresses for eoireos, and fanoy artioles for the toilette. Gloves, ready mado linen, embroidery, and drevs-making come under other categories. The articles of millinery above mentioned as- quire almost all tl value from the labor of the workwoman, the orizinality of the out, tho gracs of @ bow, or from that jene sats quot whioh bolonga exclusively to French taste, and of which our rivala cennet deprive us And, nevertheless, for theso skilful and intelligent workwomen the average wages is only If. 950. a day. A great number of them aro paid by the yeor, and live with their employors. Alz coef all of them lead a vory reguler life, and have received & certain education ; 4 out of 100 can read and write. This proportion as regards instruc tion will not be found so great in any other branch oftiade. The willinory business reokons six months of dead souson, three in the sammer and three in the winter. [tis during this time that these houses make gooda for exportation, which are soon aftor- wards distributed over every part of tho world. Drers making includes, almost exclusively, tho making of dresses, the material for which ie fur- virhed by the customer, the dressmaker furnishing only the lining, trimmiogs, &o Tbe trimmizgs and the makiog of the dresses sometimes reach co a price almostiabulons Thero are, in Paris, 5 dresemakers, of whom eighty six emyp!oy mor ten workwomen; 1.219 from two to ten; wok alene, or only employ assistants a! certain periods. The number of vorkworwen in this cate- gory may be, therefore, ed at 10,000, and are pericetly cistines from those we have men- tiored above They are employed in making dretees, cloaks, and such ko era it is in the Firet and Second arrondissements that the greater nember of drecawukere resido. The average rate of their wages is lesa than thot ofthe millivera; boing only If 500 aday. Most of them live ia furnished Icdgings, and away from the saJatary protootian of theirfomilies ‘The staymaking businese in Paris is carried on by 663 principal establishmonte, which occupy 2.108 workwomen. We ure right ia calling them werkwomen, since there are only thirty-eight men employed in the business. Paris alono makes stays'te the amonnt of five millions of francs every yeor. Nearly 1,200,000 corseta are every year made for exportation. The establishments of the kind, ard thosa which spesially make to moagure, are proc in tho First, Second, and Sixth arron- iesemonts The average rate of wages is If 500. aday. Tho workwemen in this category are gone- rally industrious women, and ninety-tbreo out of abundred can read and write. The ready-mado Jiven trade is one of the most important ones in Paria. By this business is understood boty linen, baby linen, and tabie and house linen. Tho ladies of Paris attach more importance to fine linon than even to the richest silks and velvets. The prodac- tion of this trade amounts to 27,000,000 france a year. It is carried on by 202% porsons of both sexes, and cmploys 10,190 workwomen. Tho Third and Sixth arrondiseements may be considered as the principal eeat of this important branch of com: merce, a8 it is thero that the largest establishments aro situate, and that the most business is done. French Coasting Statistics. ‘Lhe French government bas just published the usual statistical tables of the coasting trade of France, during the year 1850. From taese it ap- ponrs that the sumber of vessels which cleared out from tho various Fronch perta, bound to other | Fierch porte, amounted in 1350 to 71,353, carrying CODFSI tons of goods, showing, 23 compared with 1849, an increase of 78 252 tons. Of theabove | 2,009 S51 tons, 1,419,000 tons were conveyed from | port to port om the Atlantic or Channel consts; 157,000 from port to port on the Mediterranean coaste; and 194,000 from the Mediterrancan to the Atlantic, or vice versa, by what is called crand calotoge, or the voyage throngh the Straits ot Gib- toler. The total amount of tonnage represonting the gron? cebotage trade in 1815 was 236.000 tons, and tho subeequent diminution may be agoribod to improved means of internal transport botween the South and west coast of Branco. ‘be fargost ox- perting ports in 1850 were’ Mars figures for 217,000 tons, Havre Nantes for 171,000, and Rouen for 16% The largest ro- ceiving ports were Marecilles, which importod 305,000 tons; Bordeaux, 242,000; Havro, 159,000; end Nantes, 136,000 The goods sent by cous re, in the order of their impor'anoe, 000 tons; building materi », 4,000 tons Tho rema g iron goods, salt Geh, manures, pitoh and ta carks, pottery, and glass.
