An Interdicted Emblem.

--By a decision of the Paris Court of Cessation jewellers and all manufacturers of fancy articles are fully informed that it is unlawful in France, in virtue of a Napoleonic decree, in 1852, against factious or treasonable emblems, banners, &c., to introduce the fleur de lys on any jewel, bracelet, cabinet work, tapestry, or upholstery, and accordingly, the tribunal at Rome, which, on the 28th November last year, gave a more lenient interpretation to the law, was wrong, and is rebuked.
