A NOVEL NEWSPAPER.

A novel newspaper has mane its appearance in Paris. It aims to supply the news of the world in a compact form on the American plan, and is published for ten centimes. The promoters have nv-t with vigorous opposition from the conductors of the principal Parisian papers, who succeeded in obliging the Government to charge tho proprietors of ‘Le Matin’ 00.000fr., five limes as much as they expected to pay, tor Special wire privileges. The extraordinary feature of the now paper is the colloboration of representatives of the tour principal political parties in France. The letters they wrote accepting their positions are journalistic curiosities. M. Emanuel Arena, the Ooportunist Republican editor, writes : “You ask me to say the Opportunist m iss in a church that is open to all faiths, is hospitable and tolerant —the exact contrary of all known churches. The i lea is a new one, and it tempts me. Inlroibo 1” The Bonapartist editor, M. Paid de Oassagnac, writes : “ You propose to mo to come freely, once a week, and defend my politics, the Imperial policy, in the new journal that you are publishing and which, by means of an original combination,presents on different days the diverse opinions that just now divide France. Although curate in ray parish, the Pays, I accept with pleasure tne role of a missionary, which will allow me to preach to the heathen and to destroy some of their idols. It is a work that fa not without its utility to my cause, and which, under your own literal management, cannot* but be very agreeable to me.” M. J. Comely sounds the royalist and clerical note in the following terms: “I am convinced that tho public is killing Prance, and that the mona dry will save it. I would like to cry this aloud on all the houae-top<. This is why I accept with oleasure the task of colloboradng on “Le Matin.’” The revolutionary editor, M. Jules Valles, sounds the following warlike blast : “ I accept your proposal as a homage paid to those among whom 1 have lived outing days of poverty and days of combat. You have done me the homnir to call me iu to represent them in your house, where those toiohbearers, the revolutionaries, will find posted upon, its walls the motto ‘Go Ahead.’ In the ‘ Gri du People’ I address the people. In your journal it will be to the bourgeois I that I will speak. I do not hope to conj vert them, but I will at least have warned j therti. When the tragic hour comes anil theyhave their backs to the wall they will have nothing to complain of. Thanas for having offered me your window whence to harangue them before firing upon them, if they force us to that.”
