The circumstances of the Roiffensteln Em-I bezzlement are these :-Mr Rei"enstein,_in his capacity of chief clerk in the Receiver Genernl s Department, had charge of the ditribution of certain public moneys coming to certain muni- cipalities in the Province of Ontario. It is un- derstood that by A species of contrivnnces com- monly known ss "cooking the account,he suc- ceeded in embezzling a very large sum of the public money. The amount as yet cannot be stated with any degree of reliability. The mat- ter has created great sensation in official and other circles, as it is supposed that the loose manner .of' checking accounts in certain depart-, ments, which this unfortunate case makes ap- parent, will involve several high officials in serious troubles. It is reported lbs! the sum of $5,000 has been refunded by the family. It ap- pears that one of the members for York, i looking over the book of Public Accounts, ob- served that the stun of seventeen hundred dol- lars ($1,700) had been paid to the munic palit_y of Ms. khsrn, and knowing that only seven hundred doll.t'a_(nll that the municipality was entitled to) had been pnid, he at once took steps to sift the` matter. It to-k three weeks for the Government to investigate the matter, and bring it home to Mr Reilfenstein ; and the investigation has afforded a clue to many other irregularities. Reienstein, when asked for an explanation of a certain item, went to the On- tario bank and deposited a sum due to the gov- ernment, thereby acknowledging his guilt. His arrest took place on Saturday, at 6 o'clock, on information sworn toyby Detective Ritchie. The matter causes great regret, Mr Reitfenstein ' holding a very high social position in the com-, nally, and being of respectable connections. ' uch sympathy is felt for his family. His mode of living lately, however, sinceithe nrri"nl_ of the Government in Ottawa, has been of the most extravagant kind. He kept horses and carriages, gave dinner parties and entertainments at his house of a costly kind, and dabbled in real es- tnte-only last summer luring paid as much as 1,400 in cash for a house in the city, now less- ed by Sir George E.

I The Paris Patric says that 561 persons arrest- , ed in the French capital were taken to Bicetre on the llth inst., and -173 on the following day, making a total of 1,033. Uthers previously sent made up the number to 1,lt10. Bicetre is a. fort a little wayout of Paris, and these prisoners are conned in Line of its casemutes, like so many cattle. Among them there are many bourgeois, whose sole oence consists in haying been caught on the boulevards, and none will be released be- fore they have been interrogated by a judge d . instruction. Your readers don t know what a casemate is. lt is a low-roofed bomb-proof com- partment in a fcrtress, lighted and ventilated these black holes, without air or light, `] 25 hu- man beinus are immured preventively, and most of them will probably be let out after they have been examined; a. few bundles of straw are supplied for them to lie on, and the accommo- dation is far inferior to thaL provided for the common run of pickpockets and area sneaks daily picked up by the police and sent to the prefecture. Those who are released will not speedily forget their stay in the cuemstes, but I question whether they. will entertain a strong ieeling of admiration for a system which enables an unoifending citizen to be incarcerated "pre- ventively"' in such a black hole, without any possibility of redress, at the mere cnprice of an infuriated policeman. No one is allowed to irisit them without express permission from Marshal 'Canrobert, the commander of the 1st Army Corps. It is thought that a large number of the incarcerated were mere spectators of the distur. bunt-cs which took place in Paris, and that they will at once be set at liberty. Another account says; The police appear `to have caplttretl at cu- rious medley on the bOlJl8V8l'dS--DL.bi8 dukes, J only by three or four embrasures. In each of gallant generals, sedate judges, and ladies of fashion. A good many of these were at once re- leased.

Among them are a. great many English and some Americans. it people will go into riotoustt-rowds, after the Riot Act has been read, they must. take the consequences, and very unpleasant those consequences may prove to be. Indeed, com- plaints have already been heard that the prison diet of Paris is not at all of the same class as the breakfasts at Bignon s, or the dinners at the Cafe Anglais. It is already stated that there is yet to be a great insurrection, of which these emeutes wrre the augnt-garde, and that Government al- ready hold the key of the mystery. Both these statements are p9'asible-na_v, probable; but it the fact is so, the Government has not yet whis~ peted _it to any one; and therefore to discuss it were premature. The damagsidone on the hou- levards is estimated at 2,400; but to Illa! amount must be added tt.e loss to trade all along the line from the Rue Royale to the Fan. bonrg Moatmartre.
