FRANCE . It seems that the project of law on pensions to the lalnnring classes is creating a cons-deraWedegree of excitem-nt . It is stated ( says the * Siecle ' ) iliat the President of the Republic had charged the minister of cammarca and asricuknra vdth presenting Hie nrojectof law ia quKtien to the Cha-niier , without informing the rest of tbc cabinet of the fact . M . Dasuas , in order to piUiate anything unusual that might bs found in this conduct , communicated the project of . Uw to the Coravniltee on Public Assistance . Hence , great discontent of the President on ths one handi and of the ministry on the other , II . fould , especially , being v ^ ry much annoyed by the steps taken by M . Damas . Hence , also , rumours of M . Fould ' s resignation . It ; is no-v said that the proj-ct of law will meet with manv obstacles that it will not bs presented .
Amongst the pstitsons which were reacted in the Assembly , on Saturday , was one for replacing on its pedestal in the Court of Louvre , the statute of the Duke of Orleans . The resignation of their posts given in by M . De Lamoriciere , envoy at Vienna , inspiies the ' ConstitutioneV now the organ of the Elysee , with the following reflections : — The resisnation of these two diplomatists may be regretted fur the sake of our external affairs . But does it not confirm the words of the President of the Republic , when he said that France did not see the influencs of the electof Dec . 10 ? Those whom he hid named as
his representatives abroad did not feel that influence either ; and they considered themselves , it seems , not as the representatives of the president of the Rspublic , hut of the ministry . The policy inculcated in the message will change all this . Whoever will accept such functions henceforward must represent the policy of the President , and the duration of diplomatic functioris may he at least as long at that of the presidential power , attributed by the constitution . There is now no mistake about the President ' s meaning . He will have r-: eu devoted to his person , and none other . This partends ill for the duration of the present ministry .
The War against the Press . —Tne Democratic Pacifique * was on Thursday seized by the authority , for stanne that the President of- the Republic had not paid his subscription of 50 , G 00 f . to the ' Cites Ouvriers . ' The legal charge alleged against the paper is—1 st , an attack against the person of the President of the Republic ; and 2 dly , excitement to aatred aad contempt of the Govern * ment of the Republic . The responsible editor of the Socialist journal the * Paysan' has just been condemned by the Court of Assizes ot the Aisne to one year ' s imprisonment and 8 , 000 f . fine , and , in consequence of its not being his first offence , the journal has been suspended for two months .
More Persecutions . —The correspondent of the Daily News' writes : —M . F . Barrot , i 3 preparing a system of repressive laws against the spread of socialism , which I fear may have for result to fetter the press of this country still more than it is already , but of which no exact details have as yet transpired . It will be remembered that the papers spoke some time since of the arrest of an Englishman named Forbes , who had taken an active part in the Roman insurrection , and who subsequently reached Genoa with the other refugees . I understand that the rea ! caus < : of his arrest and detention is the
charge a : a ; nst him of being the bearer of letters from J \ hzzi :: i to two persons , also well known in the Italian revolution , named Zambianca and Campaua , and which letter , I aii told , requested tfceir co-opsration in some conp de main . —Times . Duels . —Pakis . Saturdat . —The duel pending between M . Pierre Bonaparte and M . de Kongo , took place tbis morning with swords . The former having received several slight wounds , succeeded in disarming the latter . M . Bonaparte wished to continue the duel with pistols , but the seconds of M . de Rovigo refused to accede to the proposal .
Another dnel took place on Suuday , in a ii «; l < l near the railroad station at St . Germain , bttweca 31 . Pierre Bonaparte and M . Adrien de la Yaiette , principal editor of the ' Assemlilee Nationale . ' This meeting arose out of a lettsr by 11 . Pierre Bonaparte to JL de la Vais ? te , on the sulij-ct cf an article which had appeared ia his journal , of which he was not the author , h " . t of which he h 2 d assumed the reqwnsilfrity . The terms t . f the letter being considered insulting , M . de la Yaletle demanded satisfaction of M . Bonaparte . Aficr firing a shot each , at twen-y pases , the affair was declared terminated , and tue parties left Use eroucd . In consequence of these frequent duels zrisins out of debates in the Assembly , it is said the Attorney General will demand authority to prosecute .
Paris , Moxdat . — Some very important measures were ia : rosiuced by the Ministers iu the sitting of the Assembly to-day . The . Minister of the Finances brought in a bill for the purpose of authorising the bank ef France fc > iacrease the circulation of its notes to 525 millions of francs . The Minister of Commerce brought in a bill for the establishment of a pension fund for old men . The Minister of War brought in a hill for the formati-jn of an additional battalion of fra foreign legion , iato which the ratn in the six battalions of the Garde Mobile , which are to be disbanded on the 31 st of Dicerolier , will be allowed ta enter .
The Minister of Public Works brought in a bill demanding a credit of 75 , C 00 f ., for the arrangement of the old Chamber of Deputies as a place of mee :-jag for the Legis ' aiivs Assembly . Some difference is said to nave arisen between the President o : the Republic an l Lord Normandby . on the subject of the recall of the French flatt from the L ^ Vini . Lira Nornundby , it is said , wished the President fc > join England in obtaining some further concessions from Russia in favonr of Turkey , ¦ which the President declined . Upon this Lord Normandby accused France of deserting England at the mo ment when the latter was taking a decisive attitude . This rumour requires confirmation .
A number of Legitimists , assembled at a house in the Rue Ruufort , were arrested on Sunday night by a body of city sergeants , supported by a company of the line . MM . Cremieux , Michel ( da Eourges . ) and Jules Favre , representatives of the people , and the other advocates engaged in the defence of the prisoners of "Versailles , with the exception of M . Coralli , and M Henri Arroaad , are cited to app ; ar on the 5 th of December before the Cou-. cil of Discipline of the Order of Advocates , to answer for their conduct in protesting against the decision of the Hi gh Court and abandoning the defence of the prisoners . The Council is competent to inflict the graduated pun isbment of admonition , reprimand , censure , suspension , and expulsion from the Order , according to the offence committed .
Paris , Wednesday . —In the Legislative Assembly yesterday the bill relating to coalitions , which has baen so long under discus-Jon , was definitively adopted . Arrest of Legitimists . —The 'Moniteur du Soir' of ' yesterday evening contains the following : — * The police having some time since received inforznation that unauthorised political meetings were held at No . 16 , Rue Ruraford , about ten o ' clock on Monday night several commissaries of police , accotn-Mnied by a brigade of sergens de ville and a

Hereupon the Council of Ministers definitively vated the electoral law for the new parliament , and then decreed an answer , in which the rights of Germany are energetically maintained , aud in which it is declared that they are prepared to meet armed intervention .

Hanovar and Saxony had not withdrawn , nr wore to becampiiiied to resume their adhesion , either by iheir Chambers or the fores of events , the supremacy of Prussia would not be seriously affected , for the population of Hanover and Saxony / taken at a maximum , cannot exceed 1 , 800 , 000 and 1 S 50 . 000 respectively , which wau ' . d give eighteen deputies for the foria-r , and nineteen for the latter , or thirtyseven for both , still leaving a majority of forty-nine in favour of Prussia .
Prussia .-The prosecutions for publishing ami circulating the resolution of the sectiou of the National Assembly after its dispersion during the state of siege , denying the right of the Brandenhurgh Ministiy to raise or dispose of the yuhlie tax-is , ea decided . The accused parties were inhabitants of the district of Liebenwalde . None of the facts were denied , and the State prosecuior pressed for a vsrdict of guilty on the charge of attempting to excite the people to revolt against the authorities . As this prosecu : ion is the first of a series , the decision of the jaiy , which was a full acquittal of ail the ac cusd , is important .
Hamburgh , Nov , 23 rd . —You will remember the treatment experienced by- the Prussian soldiers , while inarching through here , some months ago , in consequence of whinh we are still burthened with the maintenance ef a large body of Prussian troops . Osie of the results of those proceedings was the introduction into ths convention by ihe senate of a bill for Ihs purpose of punishing press offences in a mare immediate and direct mode than by the law of defamation . This law first was put in force before the lower court on the 10 th ult . The edisor of tV . 1
• Freyschutswas fined fifty marks ( about £ 3 ) with e » sts , for an article aj . ainst the King of Prussia . Yesterday three other actions were brought by the public prosecutor against the editor of the 'Opponent ' for as mauy articles tending to excite hatred ; : nd contempt towards the highest authorities of the city , and calculated to offend forei gn governments in friendly relations with Hamburgh ( hi es ( the Kvu « of Prussia . ) Dr . Gallois was the counsel for tliG defence in the first and second , mid Dr . Trif . ai in the third cause . Dr . Tnttan sought to prove the truth of the allegation of his client that the senate had imposed on the people , tor that it liad not performed its promise of introducing the constitution as fixed by the Constituent Assemblv . Us had for his
purpose requested the court in writing to summon all the members of the association as witnesses for the defence . Before he opened bis pleading the presiding judge observed that the court could not admit the plea of the truth of the libel , because it would tend to defame the honour of the highest authority in tV . e slate . Dr . Trittan said he was not prepared with any other defence , and f t lie must protest against the suppression of tb . ruth , and by so doing denying justice to the ccuseii party . As he was very much applaudeft b ; the audience
, the judge ordered the court to be cleared . When the proceedings were resumed , Dr . Triitan insisted upon proving the truth , hut was » ot allowed to do so . The President asked the deftndaut wheiher he would defend himself , but he declined , for want of legal knowledge . Two other advocates were n = ques- - -4 lo defmd him . One said he would not plead befo , := sUoh a court ; the other , that he could only follow Dr . Tnttau in his defence . The public prosecutor proposed to adjourn umil Monday n ? xt , to which the court ajreed . This affair is , of course , creating a good deal of sensation .
ITALY . ROME , Nov . 15 . —This is the anniversary of Count Rossi ' s assassination , and to-morrow that of the attack on the Qairiual . Some demonstration has been feared , and strong patrols parade tiie city after dark . All is , however , qaiet , and the Pops ' s return is again announced as likely to take fc lace before the end of the mouth . The Roman correspondent of the Daily News , ' says : — ' A curious anecdote has been communicated to me from a town in La Marca , where an Austrian
officer was billeted in a private house . The master of the house had a fowling-piece in his possession , and lately shot a hare with it , offering the product of his morning's sport t » his Austrian guest . « I ac ept your hare freely , ' said the officer ; but how did you kill it ? Here are the marks of fire-arms . 1 shall be obliged to accuse you of concealing prohibited weapons ; I regret it but it is my duty . ' He did so , and by the time that the hare was ready for ihe officer ' s table his unfortunate landlord was undergoing fifty bastinadoes . ' *

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY . The ' Ost Deutsche Post , ' which 3 eems to look upon the partition of Turkey as imminent , modestl * urges Austria to secure the ri ght bank of the Danube to its mouth , since it is too late to come in for any share of the spoil on the left bmk , and to encnurage the disposition of Bosnia lo revolt from the Porte . Vienna , Nov . 21 .-Tie ambition of the Servians to ferm a separate nationality , and to have a distinct territory assigned to them , has at ltn t ' a hesu gra . ified . The last decree , Rhich the Emp ' erer signed before his departure for Prague , established the
Servian woiwodesliip as an independent province , with an independent Servian administration , a landtag of its own , and all the privileges which belong to a crown land of the empire . The banat of Teme 3 warand the Servian districts ofRuma and lllok , will be included in the woiwodeshi p . The Emperor will be styled grand-wniwode , and the governor , to which post , General Mayerhoffer is ap pointed , vice-woiwode . This measure of the go . vernment , however liberal it may appear towards the Servians , is a fresh and important spoliation of the kingdom of Hungary , which loses thereby the most fertile portka of its territory , and those rich a !

luvkl deposits of the Save , Drove , Danube , and Tfceiss , which , make this reRiart ' otie of tha moit abundant corn countries in the world . Nor does the injustice stop here , but a considerable population of German settlers , who both as traders and farmers , and in all other respects are superior to the Servians , are handed over to the sway of a race whose ignorance and ,. barlmrism they " despise . A petition was extensively signed by these substantial colonists , praying that they might be saved from this misfortune , but the tyranny of the Servian functionaries prevented its circulation . The most considerable Servian emigration into the region of the new woiwodesliip took place ir . the reign of the emperor Leopold I ., ^ Y ho in 1090 allowed between thirty-six
thousand and thirty-seven thousand Servian families of the Greek schismatic religion , under the guidance of their patriarch Arsenius Cernowics to settle on the . lands beiween the Save and Drave , and at the mouth of the Theiss , which 150 years of Turkish domination had not perhaps done rcuch to improve . The independence of their church , free exercise of their religion , right to choosa their own patriarch and woiwode , and to have their internal affairs administered by Servian magistrates , were privileges bestowed upon the emigrants in reward for the aid which they had brought against the Ottoman invaders . The peace treaties of Carlowitz and Passarawita , which abridged the sway of the Turk still further , gave a proportionate room to the Servians to indulge their nomade propensities .
The same rich soil was held by the Daco-Roman , but neither he nor bis Servian neighbour knew how to use this hlesans cf natvwa vrati \ the German colonists came , and the abundant crops which repaid his energetic toil taught these ruder occupants to enrich themselves by imitation . But tlie warlike Magyar asserted meanwhile his dominion over all alike ; aud , finally , the union of this couulry , with Hungary under Joseph If ., established the undisputed supremacy of the Magyars . The dignity of vsovKofie was abolished after George Brenkowich had fallen prisoner into the hands of the Hungarians , The Servians ceased to have their affairs managed bj functionaries of their own race . But whatever mav
have been their retrenchment which took place in their liberties during the period of . the Magyar rule , there is no doubt that the recent Hungarian revolution would have given the Servians all they could rationally desire ; although Kossulh did not lend a very favourable ear to their claims for an independent nalionality . In fact , Kossuth was too good a statesman not to see the impracticability of such a scheme , and too upri . ht a man to promise what would tuvn out a mere illusion . He said that he knew of no Servian territory in Hungary—that he only knew
of a population speaking the Servian lan « uage mixed up with other races , Wallacks , Germans , Sclavonians , Magyars , who , by the concession of a Servian territory , must be subjected to the same grievance of which the Sedans themselves complained ; and that the system of-- . granting separate nationalities would completely cut up and destroy the Hungarian monarchy . The present policy of Austria having precisely this end in view , no one can doubt that the present boon to the Servian nationality is an effective step in the promotion of that policy . "
Numerous detachments of Honveds continue to be escorted over the Styrian frontier of Hungary , southwards to Italy . As Klagenfttrt lies in their way and Gnrgey is supposed to be no great favourite with the Hungarian soldiers , since the results of the surrender at "Vilaeos became apparent , fresh rumours of plots for the purpose of abridging that tra tor ' s existence have latterly been , spread and whenever a company of Honvcd officer * pass through the place , extraordinary precautions , it appears , are taken by the authorities to secure his person asainst all attack .
TURKEY AND RUSSIA . The ' National Zeitnng' publishes the follosinfc translation of the speech which M . Ko&suth is said to have addressed to the Hungarian refugees on the occasion of their deparlure from Widdin . Anything respecting Kossuth in the Austrian papers must be received with doubt : — ' Gentlemen , —I am happy to be tfie bearer of the . meetings and blessings of the g"od and glorious Sultan . ( Cheers . ) A messenger from the great Monarch arrived hire yesterday , bringin < : the joyful news that the Sultan has resolved not to lift « n to Austria and Russia's demands for our surrender . ( Groans . ) No , the Sultan has sworn by the Prophet th ,-t be will protect us at anv liazird ,
even at the risk of tha overthrow of bis empire . ( Cheers . ) Gentlemen , it is now certain that we are ' . 0 leave Widdin . The war for which sve yearnthat war which alone can liberate our poor country —the war which hitherto was doubtful—it is now certain . The question o ? that war , of its ' outbreak . I say , is now but a question of time , and ils commencement will be determined by Euad Fffendi , —for such is the o '' j ct of his mission to St . I'etersburg . My brethren ! the sun has not yet set ! there are still some rays of light ! a nobler part remains still for us . Tiie Hungarian emigration is of high importance in the politics of Burnps . To deserve that importance is our task—which , though difficult , is most
giorious ! But do not fear , my brethren , that we stand alone—as we did ; that we are ' disowned , ns we were . No , indeed . We are held up by Turkey , by England , and by France . Public opinion in Ecghnd . in the Parliament and without , has , indeed , for a moment become doubtful of us . But why ? Because some of us have adopted the Mahometan faith . But what these men did , finds some excuse iu the prevailing dssire to make proselytes ; and , hi sides . whatever they did they did as m ? n , not as Hungarians . As men they will have lo bear the consequences , and not only they but also certain people in th r s city of Widdin who urged them to this step . But that is all . A letter which I wrote to the noble
Lord Palmerston , and the unremitting labours of an English fiiaml ( Mrs . Thomson ) have served to place the question in its true light , and the organs of the British press , of all parties , raised their vuice in our favour . Gentlomen , 1 am enabled to assure you that England and France are for us , and that they havs declared that , allied with the Most High Porte , they will fight for the liberty and independence of our countrv . In consequence of these important events the Mist High Porte has resolved to send the Hungarian emigrants from Widdin to Shumla . Shumla is , according to my opinion , if not the best , at least the most advantageous place for the Hungarian emigration , for in the case of a war against
Russia and Austria , we shall be enabled to proceed o and cross the Danube at Rustshuk , and to reach our country , where hundreds of thousands of kind hearts and stout arras wait for us to rid the earth from the wretched remains of a bloodthirsty dynasty , which exhibits the . just curse of an angry God by those atrocious deeds which in its frensied blindness it perpatrates aga : nst a poor and helpless people . But if Shumla were threatened—though , indeed , there is not much fear of that—there are fourteen British vessels in tho Djrdanellcs , prepared to take us to England , where we are sure of a kind treatment , for Great Britain—to speak with Lord Palmerston , has not indeed orders and ribands for a murderer like Haynau ; but that noble country can admire and respect the remains of a gallant nation
which prevailed against and shook to its foundation the firm and towering stronghold of tyranny . ( Cheers and shouis of the Turks , < Bin jasha Kossuth ! ' ' Bin jashaDembinski I' or' May Kossuth live a thousand years ! ' &c . ) When silence was restored M . Kossuth proceeded : I have but a few words to add . To prevent disorders the Most High Porte wishes the emigrants to form a corps under my leadership . ( Loud cheers . ) If it is your will , gentlemen , I consent . ( Cheers . ) But I wish for harmony and order , for without these our-corps cannot exist . Thm corps is to he a military institution , which I will do ray best to improve . To prevent the possibility of any violence on the part of the Russians , we are to j uirney by land . To defray the expenses of that journey , the High Porte has sent me 241 , 000 piastres , as aBairam ' s present for the emigrants . '
The Times' states that : —A lone letter has been received from a certain high personage inConstantinople respecting the quarrel between . Turkey and Russia . The letter , though not of recent date ( the 28 th ult ., ) gives some interesting details respecting that affair . It states the intention of the Czar tu demand the expulsion from the Turkish territory of not only the Hungarian refugses , but of others whu have been for some time under the protection of the various foreign Legations at the Porte . Aiupn them one person in particular is named , who was the agent of a distinguished and well known Polish
l O ¦ leman of the highest rank . The demand for hiexpulsion was made so far back as last year by the Russian Ambassador , and referred to the French Minister , who stated that he was read y to withdraw his protection from the person in question the mo ment any single fact was proved which showed he had been implicated in any gets hostile to the Rus » m Emperor . The demand of the general expulsion of these refugees is again made , and it is said that if not attended to , a pretext will be made of their continued residence it Constantinople for the occu F * io a of MoWia and WtUachia by the RUS

RENEWAL OF THE WAR IN AFRICA . The Moniteur A ' gerieu' of the 15 th ult . contains thefollowing :- .,..,. , , ., A courier from Zaaicha arrived at Algiers by land on the evening of the 13 th . The passage by Bathna and Setif is very long ( 150 leagues , ) especially with the precautions which have to be taken between fjiskara and Bathna ; we bave consequently only news to the 2 nd . At that date General Herbillon was not informed of the approach of all the reinforcements which had been directed towards Zaatchn . He on ' y expected Colonel Canrobert , and continued the siege works , whilst energetically repulsing attacks from the outside . We have
to-, lav details of two aff-iirs on the 30 th and 31 st of October . The first ' day the cavalry , who operated in the interval beiween the oasis of Tolga and that of Parfar , was attacked by a much superior cavalry force , and numerous infantry soldiers shoued themselves around the oases . General Herbillon immediately caused the cavalry to act , and the plain between ihe two oases was rapidly cleared by vigorous charges of the 3 rd Chasseurs and 3 rd Spahis . Their retreat having been followed , a second charge , as vigorous as the first , caused the most audacious assailants to bite the dust . Night arrived , and two companies of infantry sufficed to keep the enemy in respect . The charges only cost , us three killed anil
three wounded . In the same day , at the trench , and in cutting down the palm trees , ' we had nine wounded ; two of whom were officers . On the 31 st of October , Ihe General having returned , to the same ground with his cavalry , supported by mountain mortars and three companies of infantry , to recon . noitre tlie enemy , the combat was commenced ; A mass of cavalry and infantry quilted all the oases . The 200 chasseurs and spahis of the' column made brilliant charges , got amongst the enemy , and overthrew a great many of the chiefs . The artillery caused numerous looses to the Riiemy . The enemy had more than fifty killed and a considerable number wounded , ¦ against three killed and seventeen wounded of' our troops . After these affairs a con ferencetook place between'the Scheick El Arab and
one of the chiefs of the revolted wandering tribes who had combatled . An understanding could not be arrived at . The arrival of the expected reinforcements might , however , make these tribes , so little accustomed to such sanguinary comma's , display more conciliatory dispositions . All the reinforcements were not likely to be collected before the l ' 2 th or 13 th ult . so that we shall probably not have important news before the 25 ih ult . by land , and Uie 27 ih ulf . by sea . Since- the receipt of the last desnatchas the situation has / improved by tlie voluntary withdrawal of the force collected by the Marabout Si Abdel Afulh iu the Auress . We , however , attach little importance to this withdrawal , which is probably temporary ; there must be serious combats to put an en- ] to the disturbances which agitate' the subdivision of Bathna .
CAPE OF GOOD HOPE . We are in receipt of journals from Cape Town to the 28 th of September , sis days later than those previously received . UnSaturday the 21 st a special meeting of the Anti Convict Association was held at eleven o ' clock . The Governov'i answer to the letter , adapts by rid&y ' s meeting , wis ex ^ c lcd at 2 p . m ..

' At both tho meetings of the association ( on the
22 nd and the 25 th ) it was unanimously resolved '( That the pledge , not to hold intercourse with the Neptune or furnish supplies to the naval station or fcoverument so long as the vessol remained at ihe Cape , should be strict ' y enforced , with the following exceptions , recapitulated by Mr . Fairbairn on the 22 ' . ul : ¦ There is an express resolution declaring that clergymen , judges , medical men , gaolers , and executioners , may perform their funcii-ins upon the convicts without cuming within the pledge . '
At the meeting on the 22 ud the following statements were made :- ' Mr , Watertneyer staietltnat ho had learned that yesterday afternoon a requisition had been sent to the navy contractor at Simon ' s Town for 750 ibs . of meat : and the answer given was , that he could not get tntat himself from Cap ?

Faure observed , ' he had been informed that tlie 6 th regiment had been ordered to dr a * their rations last night . It should be seen to , that these wore not given to the convicts . —Mr . Villiers stated tha" ; this was not correct . The 73 rd had drawn their rations at niirht , according to an established arrangement j the ~ 6 ih drawing theirs in the morning . '
Ihe governor . ia stated to have observed to . the gentleman who waited upon him : You will have a very bad dinner if I go without , I tell you can'iidly . ' The reply to this insinuation was n resolution on the part of the Cape Town Associati-n , to instruct and encouvage the rnral inhabitants to withhold supplies , even though ' themselves and their families should be left to subsist upon the rice in the Cajie Town stores . In letters from Cape Town it is stated that the governor and Commodore Wyvill were compelled , in the then state of affairs , to have bread made in their own house * .-

building will be constructed te contain 40 or 50 familei , a lavatory , an establishment of batns . and an asylum hall to receive the children during the necessary absences of their mothers at their avocations . The furnished rooms will be let at 6 , 8 , and lOfr . a month to the workmen and workwomen who may not have the means of purchasing furniture . Of this payment a portion will be appropiated to the rent of the apartment and a portion to payment for the furniture , which will , however , belong to the occupant after a certain amount has been paid up . There will be a great hall in each building , which
will be used as a general warming place . It will also tie used as a place for holdings meetings iu the district in which it is situated , if it be hired for that purpose . In connexion with these edifices , it is also intended to establish registries of servants and work-people , so that those who want labourers may find them , and those who desire to be hired may inscribe their name ? . Already one of these lodging houses is in course of construction in the seccond arrondissement , and its exterior , though without , luxury , is not wanting in a certain degree of elegance .
it wiil be seen from this account that the lodging house scheme of Paris surpasses in many particulars anything ; of the kind which has been proposed in England . The arrangements for work-rooms , and for the care of young children ; the plan of providing decent and suitable furniture , which each occupant may purchase by small weekly instalments ; the arrangements of a hall , or meetingroom , whereby coals and cat ; d ! es are saved to the tenant ; and the proposed registration of linking nvn and ssrvants ; all these are demon ' s which have never entered into
t . ie plans of those who have started the lodginghouses of our metropolis and manufacturing towns . It may at first be thought that such arrangements would rather apply to a higher class of working people than those whose reception is contemplated in our model lodging-houses . But the proposed rents of the apartments would appear to negative this supposition . Six , eight , ami ten francs a month is surely , low enough for the accommodation proposed to be provided , and scarcely too high for any woikm ' arrin tolerable constant employment .
The greatest difference , however , in the Paris project , from that which is in operation upon this sids the Channel , consists in the mode of its organisation . In Paris the scheme is entered upon as a speculative investment ; in England , what we are doing is being done , mainly by the donations ofthe charitable . The difference in the titles of the institutions indicates very forc . My the difference in the design . The " model lodging-house" certainly sounds very humble by the side ' of " la Cite ( Were . " : The French , in truth , have gone a step beyond us , even as regard s the principb of l ' ie y >! an which we projected .. Ttse " model lodging-house" of England was designed to be wltat its namesufficientlvimports—a " model "
to future builders- ot dwellings for tho poor . It was designed to show ( hose who constructed bousss for the labouring men that it was quite passible to supply them with dwellings of a superior character and accommodation at rfnts not higher than ' they at present pay for unwholesome rooon , and wuh returns quite a < great in proportion to the capital invested . It was said , and we believe with justice , that no man was lodged more expensively than the poor man . Measuring t ' ie accommodation afforded by cubic feet it was found that the inhabi'ant of the Rookery paid a far higher proportion to price for his miserable room in St . Giles , than the peer paid for Ills raasnifieant palace in B l ^ rav ia . It was detersiineri to show that the poor could be lodged not merely at a cheaper rate , but in a better way , for
the money which they paid . But it was not , we bsHeve , contemplated to do more than demonstrate this position . The task of working it out miirht , it was tlnughf , be left to the natural public eompetitt' n . Our Trench nri gWxnus , however , understanding that , in point of facf , these model lodging-houses are successful pecuniary speculations , forma company to carry them into operation on airex < remely extensive scale . We beli' -ve tKe cirenmstances of ' Paris fisl ' y wamnt this . We have not at . band the house statistics of that gnat city , but we know Hint there are domiciled in it no less than 75 , 000 workmen and ( UJ . OQO workwomen , besides 30 , 000 workine ; p-ople who reside without its walls . Adding to these 100 , 000 for their children , and 5 , 000 for the nnclasscd population , we have a . total of nearly 270 . 000

Probably , however , it will be found invars , as it has to some extent been found in London , that the immediate effect of the erection of these l'id R in <» houses w to raise the standard of accommodation in inpu- immediate vicinity . It is a natural consequence of offering a better article for the same price that those who bave been selling inferior qualities should raise the standard bfiheir commodities . Wo could point to one or two instances in which the lod
ging-house keepers in the neighbourhood of n-w model lodging-houses have improved upon the aconmmiMlahon they provided very soon a t er the model Imlgtog-houses were opetud .
