The bill to restrict the freedom of the French press

passed the Chamber of Peers on Wednesday, by a majority of 101 to 20. Orders have been sent to all parts of France not to carry into effect the reducticas in the army, required by the votes of the Chamber of Deputies ; and all furloughs have been withdrawn. Two reasons are assigned for this proceeding,—one is, that the re- sult of the deliberations of the Northern Powers at Kalisch is quite uncertain, and that it is necessary to be prepared for an aggres- sive policy ; the other, that the unsettled state of Spain renders it imprudent to diminish the military force of France.
