EXTRAORDINARY EXPRESS FROM PARIS. We have just received the Messager des Chambres, dated Tuesday, the 10th August, and the Moniteur and other Papers of Monday, the 9th August. (From the Message?. dated Tuesday.) PARIS, Auo. 9, (MostuaY EVENING.) CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES. ROYAL SITTING. ACCESSION TO THE THRONE OF HIS MAJESTY PHILIP I. Never was a more imposing sight presented to a great people. As early as seven o'clock in the morning, the people crowded round the gates of the palace. By ten o'clock they had occupied the tri bunes ; at noon all the deputies were present. Only four or five members of the tight were observed—Messrs. Berryer de Larde. svelte, Murat, Paul de Chateaudouble, &c. At one o'clock the Peas began to occupy the benches assigned them on the right of the throne. The tribune of the diplomatic body was almost entirely filled with ladies. 'We observed only some charge d'affaires and a general officer, who appeared to us to be an Englishman. The throne is the same as at the opening of the Session. Only the ficur-de-lis, which decorated the velvet curtains, had been removed. Four large tri coloured flags were displayed to the right and left of the throne. Three red velvet stools are placed before it ; lower down to the right and left are the benches for the Provisional Ministers. The National Guard alone are on duty at the Palace. Two seats covered with pink silk are placed in the centre of the Assembly, on tile last bench, generally occupied by the Ministers Secretaries of State; they are for the Presidents of the Chamber of Deputies and the Chamber of Peers. The Peers arc to the number of ninety. At one o'clock, the Ushers invited the Deputies to repair to the Hall of Conferences, to ballot for the great deputation which is to receive the Prince Lieutenant-General of the Kingdom. The Provisional Commissioners for the Several departments of Justice, the Interior, Foreign Affairs, NVar, Finance, and Public Instruction, entered the Hall. The Tribune intended for the family of the Prince Lieutenant. General was opened at a quarter past two, and all eyes were turned to that side. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Orleans en. teted first ; Mademoiselle d'Orleans, the Prince de Jauuville, and the Duke de Montpensier, sat themselves on her right hand ; Ma demoiselle de Valois and Benjolais on her left. The Princess ap. peared to be greatly moved. She several times saluted the assem bly. Her dress and that of the young Princesses were extremely plain, being merely white robes. The little Princes were dressed in sky.blue ft ock-coats. The crown, the sceptre, the sword, and the hand of justice, were brought upon a rich cushion, and placed upon a table to the right of the throne. Four Marsh als of France, viz.—the Dukes of Tie. viso, Tatentum, and Reggio, and Count Molitor, placed themselves standing behind the throne. At half-past two sounds of warlike music were beard in the As sembly, announcing the arrival of the Prince.—Profound silence en sued. The great Deputation returned to the Hall. De Cassimir Per. tier, President of die Chamber of De sties, and M. Pasquier, Pre sident of the Chamber of Peers, took the two scats prepared for them. The Duke of Orleans entered the Hall, followed by his two sons, the Dukes de Chartres and Nemours, and took their places same feet before the throne. Cries, a thousand times repeated, of " Vive le Duc d'Orleans," &c. were heard from all the benches; the public in the galleries joined in those acclamations. The Prince bowed several times, and said " Gentlemen be seated." The Prince himself sat down and put on his hat, and requested the President to read to him the de. duration of the Chamber of Deputies. M. Cassimir Perrier, the President, read with a firm and loud voice, and in the midst of the most solemn silence, the declaration agreed upon in the Sitting of Saturday last, in the Chamber of De puties. He then ascended the steps, bowed to the Prince, who rose, received the declaration from his hands, and said, " Monsieur, the President of the Chamber of Peers, I request you to deliver to me the Act of Adherence given by the Peers of France to the Deelaras tion of the Chamber of Deputies." Baron Pasquier delivered to the Prince with the same ceremonial the Act of Adherence of the Chamber of Peers. The Prince Lieutenant-General then said, in a strong and sotto. rous voice, "GENTLEMEN, PEERS, AND DEPUTIES, " I have read with great attention the declaration of the Chamber of Deputies, and the adherence of the Chamber of Peers. I have weighed and meditated all the expressions of them. I accept with. out restriction or reserve all the claims and engagements which this declaration contains, and the title of King of the French, which it confers upon me. lam ready w swear to the observance of , them." Scarcely were these words pronounced when cries of " Vice le Rol, Vive Philippe I." resounded through the Hall. The King bowed, and raising his hand towards Heaven, pronounced the fol. lowing oath : " In the presence of GOD I swear faithfully to observe the Con. atitutional Charter, with the changes and modifications expressed in the declaration of the Chamber of Deputies, to govern only by the laws and according to the laws ; to cause good and strict justice to be done to every body, according to t his right, and to act in all things solely with a view to promote the happiness and the glory of the French people." This oath, pronounced with an accent of conviction, was received with new acclamations of " Vive le Roi !—Vive Philippe I." The Chambers and the galleries turned towards the gaiety of the Royal Family, and cries of " Vive la Heine !—Vive la Famille Royale !" rose from all parts of the Hall, and were repeated by the immense crowd that surrounded the Palace. The King immediately signed the Declaration, the Act of Adherence, and the Oath. Philip 1. sat down on the throne and delivered the following gpeech " MESSIEURS PEERS AND DEPUTIES, " I have maturely reflected on the extent of the duties which are imposed upon me. I have the consciousness of being able to fulfil them, by causing the compact of alliance which has been proposed to me to be observed. " I should have ardently desired never to fill the throne to which the national will calls me, but I yield so this will expressed by the Chambers, in the name of the French people, for the maintenance of the Charter and the Laws. " The modifications which we have just made in the Charter guarantee the security of the future and the prosperity of France— happy at home, respected abroad, at peace with Europe, it will be more and more consolidated." Fresh acclamations rose in the hall, and did not cease till long after the departure of the King and his august family. M. Dupont de l'Eure, Commissioner for the Department of Jus- Lice, said—" the King invites the Members of the two Chambers to meet to-morrow in their respective palaces, to take the oath to the Charter, and to continue their labours." The crowd dispersed slowly to the sound of military music, and amidst the acclamations of the crowd round the palace. The queen mingling in the Hall of Conferences with the people, returned, with the most a ff a ble salutations, the exp ress ions o f g o o d will of those who surrounded her. The Monikur of the 9th contains some telegraphic dispatches, announcing the hoisting of the tri-coloured flag at L'Orient and at Toulon, and the arrival at Toulon of the Nestor, which sailed from Algiers on the 30th July, with 10,240,000 francs in Spanish piastres, and with dispatches. The Messager expresses great pleasure at the subscriptions raised in London. The Aletsager of the 9th contains the names of 93 Members of the Chamber of Peers, who lose the right of sitting in it, in con sequence of the declaration of the Chamber of Deputies, which annuls all the nominations made by Charles IL (From lhs Monileur of Sunday, Aug. 8.) PARIS, Atta.7,nvis This day has fixed the destinies of France. Peace has crowned liberty. The Duke of Orleans, strong in the testimony of his own conscience, and in the wishes of the country, awaited with tran quillity the decision of the Chamber, while the people were lm. patient to see the sovereign power placed in the hands of this Prince, as it would put an end to the provisional state of things, which would have ended by resembling anarchy. The sitting of the Chamber was one of the most sublime that was ever witnessed. All sentiments, all opinions, all regrets were respected, and never did a deliberative assembly afford a more ad mirable scene of cal mness an d di gn i ty. A ft er having unanimously agreed on the declaration by which it offered the Crown to the Duke of Orleans, the whole Chamber, preceded by the National Guard, repaired to the Palais Royal. There the Duke of Orleans, sur rounded by his family, received the Deputies. Lafitte, as their organ, read to the Prince the Act of the Con stitution; after which the Duke of Orleans replied by the following speech. (Here follows the speech as reported yesterday. His Royal Highness was deeply affected, a nd concluded his speech in tears. The emotion of the Prince—the feeling with which he em braced M. Lane —the affecting picture of his family, who surrounded him—the enthusiasm which had seized the whole assembly—the cries of Vise le Roi, Vine lo Reins, Vivo la Familia Royals, which burst forth on every side—the tears which flowed from all eyes—thee:toe, a thousand times reiterated, which proceeded from the countless titude which crowded the court-yard of the Palace—all concurred to render this scene the finest, the most affecting drama that was ever presented by the annals oinations. Thousands of voices then soli cited the presence of the Prince. lie appeared in the balcony, ac companied by M. Lafayette, and both were hailed with acclama tions, which were redoubled when the Duchess of Orleans presented her children to the people. M. Lafayette , struck with this universality of sentiments and homage, said, taking the hand of the Duke of Orleans, ,‘ We have done good things—you ate the Prince that will suit us—this is the best of republics." After dinner a considerable crowd desired to see the Prince, and the Duke of Orleans appeared with his whole family. What a day !—What a nation ! How great the attitude of France becomes in the eyes of Europe ; and how glorious is it to be called to govern a people so brave, so generous, so capable of attach ment, and so worthy of being loved ! (Here follows the reception and address of the Chamber of Peers, and the answer of the Duke of Orleans, as reported in the other Journals.) In the evening there was a spontaneous illumination, fireworks were everywhere heard in the public squares, in the streets, and in the gardens of the Pallas Royal. The citizens of all classes united and mingled together, indulged in the free and sincere expressions of the general joy of security restored, and of concord secured. The Syndicate of the Receiver General of the Finances has caused the sum of 12,000 francs to be paid for the relief of the wounded, the widows and orphans of the 27th, 28th, and 241 th of July. The Society for supplying Paris with wood for fuel, has sent 5,000 francs to the Prefect of Police for the same purpose. The total amount of the subscriptions paid into the office of the Consei eutionnel up to the sth of August, was 98318 francs. Mr. Mayer, Beer, the celebrated author of the " Croeciato," has sent 1,000 francs for the victims of the 27th, 28th, and 29th of July. SPAIN. From the 3fessoger des Chambres, Aug. 8, Seemed Editiox. Paris ' Bth August, at Noon. Letters which we have received from Spain are a complete re futation of the reports which which were in circulation the day before yesterday on 'Change, and which were not without influence on the price of the Rentea erpetuelle. The ea-King Charles X. the Duke and Duchess of Angouleme, the Duchess of Berri, and her children, reached Verneuil on the sth. They set out again at six in the morning, taking the road by Laigle and Falaiae to Cherbourg. 7IIE KING OF THE FRENCH. LETTER IN THE MORNING CHRONICLE. PARIS, AUG. 8, 1830. St a—l think we shall have peace ! But, believe me, that ques tion depended on the voice of one man—and that man was General Lafayette. If on Friday night, when 1,200 of the bravest and most intelligent of the youth of Paris marched down to the Chamber of Deputies to demand that there should be no hereditary peer age ; andi in fact no Chamber of Peers ; if, I say, at that moment General Lafayette had said to those brave young men, " Yes, my friends, we will have a Republic," before 24 hours, France would have been 'declared a Republic by the Iwo ple. Ido not say by the Peers, by the Deputies, by the bankers, by the rich merchants, or men of property ; by I do say by those who effected this Revolution, that is to say, by the people. And even yesterday, if in the Chamber of Deputies, when Lafayette rose to address the house, when there was the silence of death, and when each one dared not to breathe till they had heard some few words from this Republican hero—if then, Lafayette had said, " Gentlemen, I protest against your procedings. France shall have a charter, but shall not have a king." France would have had no King, and France would have still maintained het position though many millions should have been slain. It is to Oen. Lafayette that the Duke of Orleans owes the Crown, which to.ntorrow will be placed upon his head. The Royalists and Ultra-Royalists were prepared to a man to support the Republican party. I am a Republican " said the son of a Royalist Deputy in my hearing, on the Pont anis XVI. yesterday morning. " And your father Sir ?" I asked. The people regarded me with atten tion. I said to them " Gentlemen, this young man is the son of M. a Royalist Deputy. Do him no harm, for this is the reign of liberty ; but do not listen to his councils, for he would deceive you. He does not want a Republic, but anarchy." The young man disappeared, and the mob dispersed. The sittings of the Chambers yesterday will be long remem bered in France and the world. The throne was declared vacant by the !representatives of ithe: people, and they announced that no member of the elder branch of the House of Bourbon could sit on the throne. Thus much for Legitimacy ! Next of all, the Representatives of the people made a Charter —a Constitution for France ! Its basis was that of the Charter given to France by Louis XVIII. but all that was Oligarchical or Aristocratical was removed, and the people became the founders of a new Government! Thus much for the Divine Right of Kings, Non-resistance, and Passive Obedience !! ! Next of all, the Representatives of the People chose their King. They selected a Citizen 1 a Prince who had formerly in a foreign land given lessons in Mathematics ! to support with honour and respectability his family ! They selected a man who had fought for the liberties of his country—who had always worn the national colours—who was the father of a large family—who had lived and spent his days amongst the people who now called him to reign over them. They selected a man who, from principle, was a friend of Civil and Religious Liberty, and who was free from arisitrocratical pride and vain ostentation. They selected a man who was chari table, a lober of science, literature, and the arts ; and who had granted a pension to the author of " La Marseilloise."— This was the triumph of the Sovereignty of the people ! ! ! The Prince selected is the " King of the French," and not the King of France. Mark this. Note it down in your memory. France belongs to Frenchmen, and not to her King ! France, this land so dear, this land of liberty and love France is no longer a territory belonging to legitimate Princes—but France belongs to Frenchmen—who will honour, respect, and love a Constitutional King ! When the deputation of the Chamber of Deputies arrived at the house of the Duke of Orleans, they entered without form, and were received without ceremony. He was surrounded by his wife and children. They were his only guards. The people were at the doors, and the doors were open ; but the people respected the private dwelling of a citizen, and did not enter to disturb the quiet harmony of the family circle. The Deputies came in the name of France to invite him to be King. They said that a Constitutional Monarchy established by the people appeared to the people to be the beat go. vernment, and the pen le thought that the Duke was the best citizen they could select. What was the reply of this princely and noble. minded citizen. "Exempt from ambition, and habituated to the life of peace, which I have led with my family, I cannot conceal from you the sentiments which agitate me at this moment.; but there is one passion which entirely predominates over all the rest, and that is—the love of my country. lam fully impressed with the duties which I owe to her, and I will perform them." Noble Prince ! Virtuous Patriot ! Excellent Father and Honourable Man ! May thy reign be more happy than thou mat thyself desire, and may France at length have the question answered to her satisfaction, " When shall Frenchmen be governed ?" Last night was the triumph of the sovereignty of the pe0p1e....• M. Lafayette, whose grey hairs and trembling limbs proclaim his lengthened days, can now descend to the tomb exulting and con tent. Last night, when he beheld the vast multitudes of applaud. ing citizens confirming by their approbation the choice which their representatives bad made, he seised the hand of the Duke of Or leans, and said, "We have performed a good work. You are the Chief we needed ! This is the best of Republica!" I have no time before the courier leaves to dwell further on the event* of yesterday. I send you abundance of Journals and infor mation. * My history" is advanaing, but I have not yet all my facts. Let us have a large and spontaneous subscription for the wounded and the widowed ; and remember that the battle which has been fought in France, is not for this age, but for all ages-not for this country, but for all dimes, and altmen.—.Adien. LETTER IN THE TIMES. PARIS, Avo. 8. One year has just elapsed since the fatal ministry of the counter revolution appeared in France: what has become of that ministry ? what has become of that imprudent and culpable monarch, who so precipitately hurled it upon a people who were submissive and trao. quil, and whose wishes wee limited to the preservation of what the Government had deigned to grant ? The wretches, they bare fallen intS.the gulf, and they have dragged their master with them But for a miracle, the monarchy itself would be nothing more than a mass of ruins ! Whilst Charles X. with his fami was proceeding, under protection of the tri.coloured scarf, towar ds the port from whence they were about to depart in order once more to seek a re. treat, a King of the French was elevated upon the buckler, in the midst of the victorious but still ensanguined capital. Yesterday, at six o'clock In the evenift, Louis Philippe d'Or. leans, Duke of Orleans, was saluted with the title of King ; public enthusiasm anticipated the tidal proclamation, which Goad not appear until after he had isogsul and sworn to eke contract whith is to unite the sovereign so the nation. The immortal deliberations of the Chemise:et &swift Aldus byplay and tworagesody took the lead, and the ampimelMllly dimes peat MIMS, will be amongst all nation at the meat peachier eseed. Gratefal tha n k s are re due, in the flest e lime, to that bad of gawasous Deputies, obis, after the 27tb July, in *me lawit tihy and grape-shot, when there was every mien to eye o af n ntery le ei the Court , Idpred thole eriebested pa A ten the naaeot the 26th of July, in the very floe of the which they knew had been prepared for them. They marked he* civic crowns, when two days after—calm in the midst of the too just exasperation of the people—discuming coolly what the public safety required, they pro vided a temporary government fee this great city, and made the Duke of Orleans Lieutenant-General of the kingdom. It remained only to take advantage of the victory gained, and establish, in a prudent manner, and on an imperishable basis, the liberties of the country, confiding definitively its destinies to a popular Prince. We have now likewise completed our revolution of 11188: that pe riod of your history has now been repeated before our eyes, al most scene for scene. Like you, the French have excluded Charles and his posterity for ever. The throne has been de clared vacant, de facto and de jure ; and, like your Parliament of that epoch, our Chamber of Deputies has proceeded in a course of prudence and moderation, under the direction of a wise and ear lightened policy. All party feelings have given way, and one uniform sentiment governs at this instant every mind. No nation has ever before achieved more liberal conquests; never has there been an instance of s finer contest, never of a more brilliant triumph. The French are now the freest and the happest people in the universe. Read our bill of rights—in other words, our new constitutional charter. I shall not recapitulate the articles, because you will see them in our journals. The Chamber of Deputies sat permanently for three days. The night before last, NI. Dupin made his report on the propositions res pecting the modifications of the charter, which had been brought for ward that very morning by M. Berard. Yesterday, at 8 o'clock, the deputies were at their post ; at half-past 9 began the most imposing discussion. Every opinion appeared to be uttered with the most per fect liberty, and the sentiments of loyalty and sorrowful attachment, expressed by M. Hyde de Neuville towards the latter family, were sincerely applauded. But France must be saved. Every 'moment was precious. At half-past five all was completed ; and the depu ties, under the escort of a handsome national guard, already formed us it were by enchantment, proceeded in a body to the residence of the Lieutenant-General of the kingdom. M. Lafitte, the President of the Chamber, read to the Prince the long resolution which had been adopted. The Duke de Orleans delivered a reply full of ex. cellent sentiments, uttered with the accent of sincerity; but his emotion became so exquisite that he could not refrain from tears. This good prince was surrounded by his noble and fine family. The admirable Duchess and her excellent sister gave free scope to their tears ; on their countenances were depicted compassion for their unhappy but culpable relations, and delight at the display of the peoples regard. The Duke de Chartres, his brothers, his sisters, — this assembly of personages so interesting and of so elevated a rank--at once charmed and transported every heart. The Prince, the Princesses, the Deputies of the nation, blended together, gave way in the most affecting manner to their overflowing feelings ; It was one and the same family reunited after fearful perils, congra tulating each other at having escaped the frightful disaster. It is, in short, impossible for me to give an exact description of this scene, of which the most skilful pencil could afford but a feeble and imperfect sketch. Meanwhile, an innumerable throng surrounded the Palais Royal : already were heard without the shouts of " Vive le Roi ! Vive la Reine ! Vive la Famine Royale !" which were repeated incessantly. The deputies, excited by the cry, united their acclamations to those of the people, and the new King presented himself in the balcony of the Palace, sur. rounded by 31. Lafitte, General Lafayette, and the Deputies.— It is vain for me to attempt to describe the scene. The Queen, on being called by the people, made her appearance in the midst of her charming and numerous family, accompanied by Mademoi selle d'Orleans. This noble and enchanting picture seemed to in toxicate the people with delight. They shouted, they stamped with joy ; they hugged each other in ecstacy, and appeared to enjoy, in the transport of the present, the anticipation of the fu. ture. The Duke tie Chartres was saluted as Prince Royal; the Duke de Nemours was by his side. Last night the Peers assembled, and found their numbers amount to 123. They proclaimed their complete adherence to the resolu. dons of the Chamber of Deputies, with the exception of that which excludes the Peers created In the reign of Charles X. on which it appeared to them that it was not their province to pronounce. It is supposed that to-morrow the Duke de Orleans will signify his acceptance, and take the oath in the presence of the assembled Chambers. Immediately after this the Royal Government will take its course, security will be restored to all minds, and business will go on as usual. It cannot he concealed that very active intrigues, seconded by the blindness of certain young persons, brave and intelligent, but not instructed by experience, have thrown great impediments in the way of this astonishing revolution. The !phantom of a republic has been paraded before us. attended by a great number of partisans.— Most difficult questions of policy have been thrown upon the public arena. Struck with the grand figure of M. de Lafayette, in this repetition of the scenes of 1789, some enthusiasts had already raised for him the chair of President of an American republic. It was through all these difficulties that the deputies worked their way per. severingly towards the object they had in view, and which they have attained. Internal peace seems sure, and there is no reason to be lieve that external peace will be disturbed. But the energy of the nation is on a par with any possible event. France is now one camp. National Guards are every where forming with rapidity ; the entire population is arming, and the tricoloured standard floats over their heads. General Clause' is appointed Com mander-in-chief of the army of Africa; this lean excellent choice; the old army had few better general officers. All the troops have assumed the national cockade. It is rumoured that the city of Toulouse has declared for Henry V. and that General Dcspinois, commandant at Nantes, has retired into La Vendee with a squadron of cuirassiers. It is added that the Count de la Potherie, a Deputy, and formerly a Vendetta Ge neral, has already formed an aggregation of troops at Segrais But these demonstrations need create no uneasiness, and the intelligence of recent events will soon put a stop to them. It is proper to give you an idea of our present Government. The Duke of Orleans—whom I shall not designate " King" till to morrow--apparently holds frequent councils., to which certain depu ties are summoned. Those who receive this honour most frequently are, MM. Cassimir, Perrier, Lafitte, Sebsatiani, Dupin the elder, Bignon, Dupont , uizot, and Gerard. The four latter are provi sional commissioners of Ministerial departments. More numerous convocations take place when the resolutions are under consideration in which the Chambers are to concur. The city is administered by a municipal commission, which for several days performed the functions of a provisional government. This is a satisfaction which is left to citizens so devoted; but mach an authority is necessarily ephemeral. There will be a forcible amp of the prefect*, officers of the courts of justice, and magi,. Nate, who were, generally speaking, so servile and corrupt under the old court. Although the tribunals have been vitiated by im. proper appointments, there exists a desire to respect the grand principle of the immoveability of the judges. Shall we not have reason to repent it? At all events, this determination shows the spirit of order and constitutionality which prevail. The public sea with pleasure the re-appearance in military posts of those Asses who acquired so much glory in our great wars. A personage of rank, who has this moment left me, saw King Charles X. and his family at Verneuil. The Prince is in a state of deep despondency ; he says it is indeed a severe trial to pass through, but he hopes to triumph at last. The Dauphin has fre quent and ridiculous ;fits of frenzy. The Dauphiness is in heavy affliction. The Duchess de Berri seeks some resource in the versa tility of her character : she dresses sometimes as a man, her two chil dren sporting around her. People feel much for this young Princess, who looks back upon lIOT prosperous hours with regret. She was beloved on account of her popular and accessible disposition; but she was wrong in opening het ears to the political prejudices with which courtiers endeavoured to inspire her. The journals leave little opportunity to send secret anecdote,. However, I can present to you events according to their aspect, and their relations with those known to have preceded them, and those which are likely to follow. The post being now re-established, our correspondence will be very regular, and of course interesting. The theatres offer a very imposing spectacle. They are crowded by the mob, and national airs are sung with a solemnity and ap. plauded with transports common to the boxes and the pit. But what is wonderful, no plunder disgraced our great day's work. The artisans have now laid by their victorious arms, and have re. turned to their occupations. ELBEUF, Ans. 7. CHARLES THE TENTH'S JOURNEY TO CHERBOURG. ROUTE FROM DREW' TO VERMEIL/M.—Charles, accompanied by his family, left Rambouillet the 3d instant; he had, previously to his departure, dismissed the whole of the infantry which was garrisoned there. They arrived on the 4th at Chartres, and con tinued their route to Dreux, where they slept, and set off at six o'clock in the morning for Yemeuil, through Nonancourt. Al. though every precaution had been taken for three or four days before to assemble a great many post horses, the Royal Family preferred making use of their own, about 80 in numb. The individuals who accompany the ex-King ate about 2,800 or 3,000, namely, detachments of Gendarmes, Cummins, Grenadian of the Royal Guards, and a dozen °Seers of Artillery, with two Caissons, four companies of Gardes du Corps, 50 or 80 servants, and an extremely numerous Staff, at the had of which is the Duke de Ragusa, wearing the splendid uniform of a French Marshal; be rides a beautiful bay horse, with a saddle of scarlet velvet. He is evidently depressed in spirits, and seldom speaks to those around him. The cortege stopped at the village of 2111leres, situated be. tweet Nonancoun and Versed), and in a miserable inn (the Post-ollise), the Royal Family partook of a light repast, which merely consisted of new-laid eggs, brown bead, and salt butter.

When the Royal Family sat down at the table, the young princes were placed on each side of the King, who did not pay slightest attention to them. The Duchess d'Angattlente was ..91 to shed tears ; she did not partake of any food, but held her hand kerchief to her face during a part of the time, rose from laid , five minutes before the King, and repaired on to,n, accotu. ponied by two officers, to the village church, wh.re sh: stayed a few minutes, kneeling the whole of the time at the t,ot of the altar—the most remarkable example, in ancient or niodera times, of the mutability of human grandeur. No shout of "Vire he Roi" were heard—a profound silence reign, ii around diem, only intertupted by the sound of the horses feet, or t h e 0, the carriages moving slowly to the coast.

A very numerous meeting of the inhabitants of the Wat.! of Cripplegate was held yesterday in the City Pantheon, N ikon street, Fore-street, for the purpose of allowing the expre,.ion of public feeling on the late events in France, and for raihing scriptions to iclieve the sufferers. Mr. Alderman Wools in tie Chair. The CliAI &MAW stated that, as the use of the church had refused for holding the meeting in, he st as not aware, till a sho!: time before he arrived there, that it was intended that they should assemble in that place. The meeting was called to express an opinion on the late dispute in France, where the people had success. fully struggled to preserve their Charter, which had been infringed upon and broken down—(cheers.) The worthy Alderman then read the requisition. Mr. DteLox, in rising to propose the first resolution, observed, that revolutions, like travelling, had been much accelerated of late. Two extraordinary circumstances characterized that which had just occurred in France—the revolution itself was extraordinary, as was also the mole in which it had been brought about. The Bourbons, he contended, had been thrust upon the throne of France against the wishes of the people, but a Charter was given to the coup. try. That Charter has been horn time to time infringed and frittered away, and Charles X. thought the time had arrived when he could abolish the farce altogether. No stwater, however, had the Ordonnances been issued, scarcely was the ink dry which penned then), titan the people by one simultaneous hurst shouted iu the car of the tyrant that they would be free. They tore up the Or donnances, and threw them in the face of the oppressors—(loud applause.) The revolution in France had not been inarli.d by bloodshed, except to oppose the oppressors. nor by any excesses, and was conducted calmly and collectedly, ht.t firtuly.—(Ap plause.) It was the people's fault that tyrants existed. I: was said of Cesar that he was a wolf, because be knew :he Romans wet: sheep.—(Loud applause.) lie hoped the time 11.(1 arrived taw, the doctrine of the Divine right of Kings w.sild be explothd, and that it would be known that Kings were made for the people— not the people for Kings—(loud applause). He thought Cha t i cs X. might be compared to the owl, who, in the story, was said to have been seated on a perch in day-time, with two torches in her claws, and that, as the light increased, the less plainly could she See—(cheers). Charles, in these enlightened times, could not discern how to advance the interests of the people. While they admired the conduct of the French, Lnglishmen should not forget to testify their admiration, and, by subscribing, to relieve the suf ferers from the first spark of freedom into flame—(cheers). He concluded by moving the following resolution : " That this Ward meeting has beheld, with feelings of unmixed approval, the resistance of the French nation to the tyranny of its late ruler, and their efforts to establish a truly legitimate Govern. ment, proceeding from the people, and wholly subversive of those divine rights and passive obedience upon which the Government of the Bourbons has ever been founded." Mr. Frrcu seconded the resolution. He hoped that, by pressing reform on the Government, this country would obtain a fair repre. sentation. He hoped the cry for reform would be heard from one end of the empire to the other. The resolution was put, and carried unanimously. Mr. Gums rose to propose the second resolution, which went to express the admiration of the meeting at the manner in which the late revolution had been hitherto conducted—effected in a few days without further violence than was necessary to repel the tyrant— with no othe r bloodshed than that which flowed at his command. Mr. Hur.sie seconded the resolution, which was put and carried. The third resolution deprecated any interference as to the form of Government that might be adopted in France, but the meeting wished to express a hope that just and liberal principles would be adopted. The resolution was carried. Mr. B. TAYLOR proposed the next resolution for opening a subscription in aid of the families of those who have fallen, or have suffered in the progress of 'this glorious revolution," and that a Committee be appointed to receive subscriptions, die. The resolution was carried and a Committee appointed. Thanks were returned to Alderman Wood. The proprietor of the Pantheon also received the thanks of the meeting for the use of the building. The meeting then adjourned, and many sub scriptions were afterwards handed up. THE ELECTION& MEMBERS RETURNED. BEDFORD COUNTY—Marquis of Taviatock and W. Stuart, Esq. DoaBET—E. B.
