At I.lcven o'clock the Members met with closed .ars, M. Cochard, the oldest Mesn'oer, acting as President.

It was put to the vote whether the Sittings should , ut mach: F IMF:, and decided in the negative until the Bing had nominated the President.

It is certain. however. that they have been proc:aimed Members. lVe understand that in their sitting of Monday last, Chamber of Peers invited two of its Members, Messieurs de 14 Bourdonnaie anB ,pules de Polignac 0 explain the reason of their restrictions on taking Le Lath as Peers on Saturday last ; these Gentlemen , trerrll7 declared that their object WAS simply the qttfests of religion. Upon this the Chamber unani mously deci4red that if Messieurs de la Bourdonnaie end Jules de Polignac persisted in their. restrictions,' ni did not confine themselves to the pure and sim. Pit oath taken by their colleagues, they would cease 'scorns a an of its Members, as having refused to I dt amit to an obligation i m p ose d on th efts by the • .. , Intuttgicn4l Chun r.

W e are conc e rn e d to learn that accounts from Montpellier notice sonic temporary di,turbances tco,k place hi that city, in consequence of the igistrdie of the Piiice having refused to anthorice of a song on the stage of llonyellia, • which hid not been milk:mixed in the btlis : the currenFe in queidon wat bn ;he - 25th . ukiiieo, ihd on the 504, We Perceive that the Baron de trice, Com mandant of the 9th Military Division, had deemed it necessity to issue a strong proclamation, directing measures the best calculated to ensure the immediate restoration of ttanquillity. Letters from Lucques are said to Mention, that M. Lucien Bonaparte had stopped at that city, and had visited the Celebrated Zampierian gallery. • On tlonday his Majesty took his usual airing at four o'ctick. litng of Denmark is entirely recovered frcnn his I yr alarming indisposition. Tibe Duchess of Parma and her young son arrived at Schoenbrunn on the 21st of September; the latter has been much indisposed. but appears to have reco vered : since the Count de Dietrichtein has been ap. pointed his Governor, nom but German attendants have been admitted about his person. Advices from Dijon, pf the Gth instant state, that the preparatory works fbr the demolition of Ole for tiications of Auxonne had been latterly suspended. Preparations are making at Cl er mo n t, at B eauva i s , and in all the towns through %%hick the military roads pass in the Department of the Oisp, for the mainte nance of 150,000 men, which are expected to traverse those places on their passage to the frontiers. We undtntand that a general review of the Eng lish troops is to take place at an early hour this morning, in the Plain of Versus. Colonel de Champeaux was yesterday acquitted of the charges aflegtd against him, and for which he has been submitted to a trial by the second perma- nent Council of War of the first Military Division : the Colonel made his own defence, in which he very ably enumerated his former services.. The camp of Dijon is raised : the Austrians de ploy upon Noyon, :lens, Bar.sur-Seine, Troyes, and other cities. The second brigade of the Swedish army quitted, on the 2tl instant, the city of Pontarlier, where they had been stationed since the '2sth July ; the local authorities hastened on this occasion to testify satis faction at the constant good conduct of these troops. L2dy Castlereagh rides out almost every day on! horseback, either in the Champs-Elysees or on the Boulevards. Her Ladyship's health continues unin terrupted. His Lordship is perfectly recovered from the effects of his late accident: The reaolzrzionary costume of the Scotch soldiery (donnas and sans-culottes) hardly excited more the cu riosity of the Parisians, than two of their bonny lasses did yesterday. *bo clattered round the Palais:ltoyal in musses - Yesterday an excellent race took place in the plain between Clichy and Neuilly, for a silver cup ; it was well contested, and caused much amusement to the spectators. Another takes place for a. cup worth 400 francs on Saturday. Sir Charles Stewart gave last night an elegant ball and supper, which was attended by all the rank and fashion in Paris. • The Hercules, the Fawn, and the Cupid stringing his bow, were packed up yesterday by the Austrians. The British troops mounted guard at the Louvre, it being their turn, but none of the statues or pictures passed through their hands ; in the Gallery we yet find the St. Cecilia, St. Michael, and several Corre. gios, &c. some of which, we understand, will not be unloved. The arniAble and interesting Grand Duchess Ca therine of Oldenberg, who won the hearts of all the English, during her late visit to them, is now com mitting, equAl savages in the b•isonis of the unoffend ing inhabitants of I:rackfort, where she arrived on the 14:11 ult. It is said a ci.rtain young and brave Prince proposes to meet her there, and take revenge for the cruelties exercised in the above manner, by winning her himself ! The country-house of Madame Eliza Bacciochi, at Lucques, has been repaired, and fnnished most luxu riantly ; she has received permission to reside there. Two French Ladies who were in her suite have re ceived orders to quit the country they have conse quently set off Icr Venice. Accounts from Vienna state, that the Empress of Anstria is making a tour on the frontiers of Hungary, and has invited upwards of 400 persons of distinction to meet her at the Chateau of Schloshoff, where her Imperial M.jesty will remain some time, giving a succession of Ictes . and balls. . Coniiderable magazines are preparing at Vienna to provision the troops returning from France. It is said the Emperor is expected there before he visits Italy, but that news wants coarmation. As soon as the Archduke Palatine returns with his young bride all the Court will remove to Sclice.ibrunn. The new name to be given to Italy (Venetian Lom bardy) does not appear to satisfy every one ; the Ensperor of Russia, when he took possession of Po land. suffered it to retain its name, and called him self King of Poland j by a reciprocal measure, the Emperor of Austria should assume the title of King of Italy. Yet a mere name cannot endanger the loss • of the country. The most perfect tranquillity continues to reign,at Paris i and the slight appearances of disturbance which were there manifested some months ago, have entirely disappeared. These appeal...inces were even totally illusory ; for we cannot consider the clamours of some nudmen. but as the unavoidable dissonances in the ge neral concert of all sentiments 'and all opinions. it is .1. .iiipbskible bit ihat i theie should be Stie bitempeiate heads in so large a city : it is impossible but Chat their should be quarrels and disputes in some corner 0. other of a city so jooptilour and so large ; these guar eels and inevitable jars, which almost alwaYs arise in the coffee•housei and wine -houses, end in tuithing, and serve in no respect whatever as a ground for ap- preciating the dispositions of the mass of the people to what may b.? 'called public spirit: besides, they make no impression. and attract much less attention of themselves, than by the means of repression which they necessitate. The measures wiliich the Police employs to arrest a disorder can never be exactly proportioned to this disorder; they make it always appear greater than it is in fact, because they must not only repress it, but impose awe and tenor on all around if we were to judge from what passed in the quarter of Li Greve two days ago, .by the display of the military force which the prudence of the foreign Commanders thought necessary, we should be very far from de ciding truly. If a judgment was even to be. formed from the succinct Expose which Las been given in this Journal, still might mistaken notions ha enter tained : for What strikes and seizes en the mind is the idea of an imposing apparatus of armed Isyce : now let us suppose the full extent of the evil which it vita requisite to remedy by thii large force, ar.d the ima gination will immediately magnify it far beyond the truth. The fact is, that in three-fotarths and a half of Paris. the people only knew next day, and through the medium of the journals, what had taken place in La Greve : the public tranquillity in short was never disturbed, and the disorder was very partial and circumscribed: an hour was sufficient to calm it. M. Domingoa de Broussac, Deputy from the Tarn and Garonne, who wished to take the oath of alle giance under certain reservations, is not a Protestant, as erroneously stated, but a Catholic. It is not true that the Venus de Medicis or any other statues were broken in the removal, as some Journals invidiously stated. While so many persons grumble at the loss of these chip d'auvrer, is it not diggracelul that casts have not been taken of any of them, for the sake of our artists. u CHEN r, OCTOBER to, tuts. • (PRIVATE LETTER.) " After spending some time in France, I have, for the preient, taken up my residence in this city.— Tne Treaty of Peace is now the general subject of conversation. It is believed that the treaty either is, or will be signed immediately. When made, will it last ?is the question. All that I have seen and heard in France, lur more than two maths, compels me to believe it will not. The French have a more in veterate hatred of the English than is; perhaps, gene rally imagined. They are full of expressions of re spect for them, and never fail to speak in praise of the English army for their good behaviour ; but they know, and they feel it too, that but for the English they would not have had retorted on them by the Prussians the evils which they inflicted on Prussia with an unsparing hand. Some few well-meaning Englishmen blame the conduct of the Prussians, and I am sorry for the innocent sufferers; but how, in a nation of thieves, can the few good be discriminated from the general mass of bad ? " Nations can only be puni►hed as nations. I have often been amused to hear the French talk - of the Prussians: their whining lamentations always re mind me of a thief crying because he has lost his booty. The demoralized state of France has never been exaggerated in England. Having seen with my own eyes what this state is, I am nu longer un der any difficulty to account for the conduct of the French Marshals and soldiery on the return of that monster BoNAPARTE. It is a mistake to suppose that he was a military despot, or that his return was contrary to the wishes of the French Nation. Had he succeeded, the end would, in the estimation of the majority of the French, have sanctified the means BONAPARTE, nevertheless, has done much fur France; and had his hands not been embrued in blood, he would, as a monarch, have been a blessing to France, ' and perhaps to the world ; but a monster he must be pronounced, when one thinks of the blood he has shed ! ! " It is generally thought that the Allies will leave FrAlice enure as they entered her, or sooner or later restore her again to that state: if so, they will have done but little. Nothing will form a barrier to this restless nation but the annexation of French Flanders to Belgium. With this acquisition, the Low Conn. tries would be formidable, as every one who has seen the lint. of fortresses knows ; but without it, the French will hold their neighbours in contempt.— When the Allies are all snug by their fire sides, we shall see this. " A word or two on Belgium. Things here are not as they ought to be. Why ? The old story — religious superstition. The pretensions of the Priests, as you will have seen by the Address of the Belgian Bishops to the KINGI; are boundless. In a prie►t ridden country. I need not tell you, their influence is extensive. Nevertheless light shines in on the people, and many begin to discover that the claim cf these men is a trick, to enable the clergy to obtain power and riches at their expense. The Government have adopted a wise course. The freedom of the press haiing been established, it has left to the press to answer the claims of the Flanders Priests. At Brussels there is a periodical * Work published, called The Oherter, ip which the Priests are not spared. I 1' • t. • not cfspr. oot only in men•will, ere long, t:li judge for Arm . rivet. thesNerttsateivirs " the things which belntlg agaL_ -laims of a treasonable and rebellious set of priests, I know not. When BONAPARTE was opposed.. by them, he put the Archbishop of Grim. in Prhon, and sent a Bishop of Al: own coining to fill his place. The Clergy would not receive him, because he was not clothed with ofiostolic authority—that is, with a licence from the Pore. BobraPattrc made short work of it. lie arrested every Priest he could hunt out in this city, to the number of two htindred and seventy three, stripped them of their holy g itments, li nt se/- diet.: deaths On Stem, and slot them to the army, or to work at the fortifications at Antwerp ! No wonder then that the Clergy, in their Address to the KING, call DoNaranre the enemy of all telini-n. After this capture, a Priest was aihamed, and even afraid to she r<• his sacred Lice in the street. They have of late, hawever, had momentary repose—they have re gained their influence in a degree—and have become proptneonably insolent. The Belgians do not rel:sh their being obliged to pay their proportion of the debts of Holland. 1111111111.1111.111.111 , 1 7 1 r .11111111111.1111 6.
