FOREIGN INULLIGENCR. EXPRESS FROM PARIS. From the 111essager des Chambres, dared Wednesday. At twelve o'clock yesterday the King reviewed the canoniers of the Paris National Guard. His Majesty was accompanied by the Duke of Nemours and General Lafayette. His Majesty was received with the most enthusiastic acclamations. His Majesty, in delivering the colours to General Lafayette addressed him as follows : " It is with extreme satisfaction that I behold this fine corps of Pari sian artillery, in the ranks of which I feel proud to see my eldest son. I regret that he is not present on this occasion, to participate in the joy I experience in giving you this standard, which bears our national colours—those colours so dear to us, and which call to mind recollections of glory and liberty which were associated to our triumphs, either in de fending our national independence, or for regaining our liberties, ant! placing them under the influence of the laws, the main tenance of our institutions, and the defence of our native country. These are your duties, I remind you of them with confidence, assured that, in the moment of danger, I shall always find you as anxious as myself to defend the national honour. I also like to mention to you the pleasure I feel its seeing at my side this brave veteran of the National Guard of Paris, who has evinced, at every period, an example of love for his country and respect for the laws." After this Address General Lafayette read the form of oath, and as soon as it was taken the corps of artillery retired, amidst shouts of " Long life to the King." It is not as yet known who will succeed Marshal Gerard as minister of war. The King's decision was not known yesterday in the Chamber. It is admitted that proposals had been made to General Clauzel, and that his answer was imme distely expected. The Court of Peers had a sitting yesterday with closed doors. It was engaged with the affair of M. Kergorlay, with that of the Gazette de France and the Quatidienne. There was no other sub ject brought forward at this judicial sitting The President made a statement of the acts charged against the panics, and the questions presented by the decree of incompetency of the Royal Court of Paris, and the constitution of the Chamber of Peers into a Court of Justice, according to a Royal ordinance. The sitting commenced at a quarter past two. The attendance of Peers was numerous, and the deliberations were not tenninated until four o'clock. The antidote information has not been obtained out of doors relative to the opinions which were eli cited upon this secret discussion. PR IVA PE CORRESPONDENCE. Pants, Nov. 16.--Some of the English journals having lately as serted that the King (Louis Philip) had placed large sums in the Eng lish funds, I am enabled, on authority, to deny that there exists the slightest ground for that assertion. The Stock Market has been lively to-day. The Five per Cents, which opened at 95f 30c, have closed at 95f 50e. The Three per Cents opened at 6-if 55c ; the last price was GM sc. The Renter Perpetuelles opened at 52j and closed at 536. A species of joy has reigned on 'Change throughout the day—" Belle Bourse has given place to the triste expression of despondency which, for many weeks,had been that of the speculators. The report of this day has been that Gen.Sebastiani is to go at once to the Foreign department, and that Marshal Soult is to be the Minister of War. This latter ap pointment would give satisfaction to the Army, of which the Due de Dalmatie is the natural Chief, while it would be no departure from the principle of moderation, which appears to be the leading one of the pre sent government. The Marshal can fight in time of war (yea, even after hostilities have ceased), and he can be devout in time of peace, as a ci vilian, or even as a churchman.• The discussion of the Civil List in the Chamber will interest you from its coincidence with the debates on a similar subject in your Parliament. The late government was desperately extravagant. That which has succeeded it must be the direct reverse, if popularity and permanence be•desirable objects with it. The call for economy is loud and incessant, and must be complied with, not merely from necessity, to repair 1 1 the injured finances of the covotry, but to gratify the taste of the na tion, whose ruling passion is at this day avarice. Ido not mean dis- 1 honourable and reprehensible thirst of gain, forwarded by all means, but a perpetual anxiety to accumulate by saving as well as acquirement. The foreigner who would not become an economist in France is a lost man ; for no where in the world is its principle so strongly enforced on him by example. The accounts received from Spain are contradictory. The Parisian volunteers are said to have suffered considerably. The names of two of the Englishmen (reported to be killed) have been men tioned to me; but, as I cannot vouch for the truth of the report, I shall withhold them for the present. CHAMBER OF Iri"--'UTIRS, Nov. 15. M. Casimir Perrier, the President, took the Chair at one o'clock, when M. Dumont de St. P r i est was alled to the tribune, for the purpose of developing his itions for the reduction of public salaries. M. Dumont sai d he would be at a loss to conceive how a budget of 1,000,000,000 francs could be extorted from the country in time of peace ; did not the history of the last fifteen years prove that the fallen government could exist only by prodigality ? In a government founded on general interest such abuses cannot be tolerated. The King we have chosen is a guarantee that their repetition is not to be dreaded. The former government had ordered, in the year 1816, a retrenchment on every pension and salary, but this was to be a temporary measure, resorted to in order to pay the invasion ex penses. It had one inconvenience for it affected even those of 500 trans. It will be considered advisable, I trust, to make the measure I propose permanent, and salaries under 2,400 franca, which are scarcely necessary to procure the necessaries of life, must suffer no re duction ; but I wish all those exceeding that amount to undergo a re trenchment, namely, those from 2,400 to 3,000 of one tenth, from 10,000 to 15,000 one.fitth, from 15,000 to 20,000 one-fourth, from 0,000 and upwards of one-third. M. Merilhou, Minister of the Public Instruction, said, that neither' he nor his colleagues were opposed to AI Dumont's proposition. AU were convinced of the necessity of economising in their departments; they would do so ; but he thought this was not the moment to examine the question, which would find its proper place in the discussion of the budget. M. Dumeylet supported M. Merilhou's motion. He also was of opt nion that all sinecures and useless employments should be suppressed. Their destruction must be for us the Dekreda est Carthage. Vauguyon voted for the taking into consideration of the pro. position. Al. Duchatel voted against it. M. Thil supported the proposition, and differed with M. Dumont on several points. He thought that the large salaries, such as those of Ministers, Directors, Generals, Marshals of France, Cardinals, Bishops, Archbishops, Councillors of State, Prefects, Attorneys-General, Presi dents, and Councillors of the Court of Caseation and Accounts, should alone support any retrenchment• After a desultory discussion between Messrs. Tracy. Dumont, and others, tile proposition was adjourned to the debates on the budget. hafitte, President of the Council, in the name of the Government, proposed several modifications in the mode of levying and collecting the direct taxes of the country, for the purpose of establishing a more per. feet equality of the burdens of the State than that arising from the sys tem at present in use. The object of the proposed plan is to substitute the mode of repard tion by districts, a capitation tax, which would affect persons of all buts, except the indigent officers of the army and navy, and the reran. gees residing in the country. The result would be an increase on the gross amount of the taxes; but, on the other h an d, ft wou ld b e benefi cial, inasmuch as it wo u ld introduce a moat equal system of taxation, and take in many who had heretofore paid no taxes. The projet de tel presented by M. Lafitte, consisted of 24 articles. The discussion then opened on the supplementary credit of 85 milli ons, called for by the Government to defray the extraordinary expences of 11129. Al Colonel Paixhans thought that the chamber should give the country a proof of its determination to introduce economy in every branch of the Administration, by reducing the credit asked for to 60 millions Al. C. DUPIN supported the motion. He thought that the time was com e to withdraw the troops from Greece, ead.merely leave in the Le. sant a squadron capable of protecting the French commerce, although piracy had entirely disappeared in those seas. The Spaniards and Poe. ' tugnese who had thrown themselves on the hospitality of France should be relieved, but not assisted in their plans of invasion-The expedition of Algiers likewise met M. Dupin's apptobstion. The My, refu sin g to give satisfaction, deserved to be chastised. The amount of his treasury was wady exaggerated, and this gave rise to en unfounded actuation of de lapidation. AI. Dupin (after passing an encomium on the beraism dis played in the African war by the French army and navy, declared it his opinion that thia conquest should not be abandoned by France. He then reverted to the expenses incurred by the removal of the Egyptian monuments to France, which I p ti:arroved of. One of these obelisks (said he) m i g h t b e suitably near the Louvre, where it would commemorate the events of our late Revolution, and another on the place of the Champs Elysees, where the late Government intended to raise a statue to Louis XV. one of the most unworthy of our Kings. Unisson Duperron having called for the communication of the protocol relative to the loans made to the Greek Government, to deter. mine his vote. M. Sebastiani, Minister of Marine, said that this treaty had not received its accomplishm ent in consequence of the refusal of Prince Leopold, and was not binding on any of the parties. He then made some observation on the expeditions of the Mores and Algiers. He l i blamed that against Madagascar. It was ruinous for the colony of Bourbon which deriv e d so many advantages from its intercourse with that island. On his arrival at the Ministry, he (M. &) gave orders to stop the effusion of blood, and to re-establish the former amicable re lations with the natives of Madagascar. H. Sebastian' then reverted to tits expenses incurred for the carriage of the Egyptian monuments, which he hoped the Chamber would approve IA M. Odier objected to the last expenses, because General fiebestiani hod not stated what would be their amount. With reseed to the TN*. Mify of the Cassaba, th e i nvest i gat i on ordered to be made by General Clause! completely cleared the three administrators whose integrity bad been so wantonly i m p eac h e d. (M. (Mier here read th e proms ver bel, in the drawn up by of Friday order ot tlast.) he General in Chief, which was contained Mortiteur hl. Lafitte thought that the Chamber could not refuse the 300,000 francs for the expense of carriage of the Egyptian monuments. They were incurred, and should be covered. Annisson having insisted on the presentation of the protocol, M. Lafitte stated that a loan of 60 millions had certainly been agreed to by the Three Powers, but that the political combinations then in progress having failed, the loan was not concluded. M. Salverte also called for the production of this protocol. M. Sebastian) repeated the explanations presented by M. Lafitte, and stated that the 500,000 francs sent to the Greek government, were not paid in consequence of any treaty, or loan, but as a succour. Gen. Demaraty said he could not vote that sum, without being sure that France was not bound to pay its share of the 60 millions. M. Lafitte said that France had contracted no such engagement, since the treaty had not been carried into operation. M. Mauguin said, that these expenses having been incurred, it was but just that they should be covered. He then reverted to the lame expose of the exterior situation of France. offered by the Minister of Foreign Affairs on Saturday last. M. Mason had omitted to an swer his (M. Blauguin's) inquiries concerning the policy of the French Cabinet towards Spain and Belgium. Should the Ministry defer any longer giving these explanations, he (M. Mauguin) would be obliged to call for them in a few days. General Demarcay, and others, still insisting on the communication of the protocol. M. Lafitte said that it was not advisable to produce the treaty. which had for its object the raising of Prince Leopold to the throne of Greece. The credit of 500,000 fronts was then voted by an immense majority. • I remember admiring greatly, and being much edified, a few years since, at seeing this distinguished warrior marching in the procession of the Fate Dieu. When will his ancient opponent, the Duke of Welling. ton, evince such versatility, by marching under the orders of the Arch. bishop of Canterbury ? For my own part, I despair of witnessing it.

FRONTIEROr SPAIN. BAYONNE, Nov. la—lids horning M M. Sancho and (semi:, meat. bees of the Spanish Constitudonal Junta, quitted this city for Lembo, `seder to have an interview with General Mina, and consult with him upon what course should be adopted in the present difficult and violent position to which the French Government had reduced the Spanish patriots. At. le Baron Dalian, our sub.prefect, had previously sent 1 notes to several of the patriot chiefs inviting them to attend at his of lice, for the purpose of receiving important orders, but not one of the Spanish patriots obeyed this summons ; they are waiting for the arrival of Gen. Mina at Bayonne, which they positivelpstate will take place to. morrow, and the object of his journey is a conference with the sab-prefect. Colonel Valdes is at present at Saint Esprit, in the department of the Lando; bis corps is scattered about in the environs of Pau. An ex. traordinary courier passed through this place for Madrid at ten o'clock at night. He was the bearer to the Spanish Government of informs. don of the measure adopted by the French Cabinet, for the purpose of forcing the Spanish refugees to return into the interior of France, and placing them in depots, where they will be supplied with the provision usually given to prisoners. It is not improbable that the Sub-prefect will be obliged to resort to force, in order to make some of the Spanish chiefs quit Bayonne. There is a report here that Gen. Vigo entered Spain on the Bth of November, and that be has joined Gurrea with the intention of marching upon Sa ragossa) It is also stated that the patriots of the Eastern Pyrenees intended to cross the frontiers on the 9th, and that they had formed a plan with Yip and Gurrea to march in one body upon the capital of Arragon. (From the Journal du Commerce.) The declaration in the Sitting of the Chamber of Saturday, by the Minister fur Foreign Affair, produced on 'Change that day a consider. able rise upon the Royal Spanish Roues, an effect which must have been expected. SPIRIT OP TIM JOURNALS. T,xzs.—The new Administration must retrench, and they must reform, or radicalism will infallibly swallow them, and us, and all up. They must retrench seriously, setting the example themselves ; and they must reform moderately, but boldly and firmly. We have no wish—the virtuous and honourable pm.kof the community hes no wish.— to bear of annual Parliaments, and ballot, and universal suffrage ; but an end must be put to Gatton and Old Sarum, and such infamies ; and the vile mitt-arrangement of East itetford must be remodelled. If an opposition, and a fatal opposition as Parliament is now constructed, be raised by the aristocrats, in either or both houses, to the suppression of sham boroughs, and to the amendment of the detestable no-repre sentation of Scotland, they do it at their own peril, and we fear at the the risk of this yet happy country. We see, and we predict, the dan ger—we do not provoke it, but the present is no time to trifle with po pular feeling and general conviction. CanowicLz—The members of the new Cobinet will never stand unless they be persons of clear and unsuspected character ; pure In their high function ; with direct and straightforward views ; disdaining all compromise of principle, and resolved to carry those measures of re trenchment and reform which the voice of the people demands, or to perish in the effort. They must throw themselves boldly and broadly on the country. Such is the only chance of withstanding the Borough. mongering Oligarchy ; for any attempt at conciliating men adverse to popular rights, of conniving at abuses, and doing good only by stealth, will be attended with the same well-merited failure in which ended the imbecile Administration of Lord Goderich. We trust the lesson may not have been given in vain. The friends of liberal measures never were in a more advantageous situation, nor occupied loftier or stronger ground; for it is impossible to fall back upon a High Tory Adminis.. tratioo. Let them, therefore, demand terms worthy of themselves and their cause. Cnitoxrcr.r.—Mr. Brougham has pledged:himself to the Free. holden of Yorkshire to advocate the emancipation of Slaves hi the West Indies. He has pledged himself also to submit a plan of Parliamentary Reform. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman, perhaps, feels that no Ministry of this county dare encounter the responsibility of emancipa. ring the slaves, and if he formed part of a Ministry, he would, of course, be obliged to defer to the opinion of his colleagues. With respect to Parliamentary Reform, it is surrounded with still greater difficulties. The power to be attacked here is at hand, not in a distant part of the world. There are two great antagonist Powers, the Aristocracy and the People—The Scylla and Charybdis of British politics. Clever must the politician be who can steer the vessel of the State between these rocks, without damage. Arian) has an amusing story of a youth. ful pair, who were constantly pursuing each other ; but when the pursuer overtook the pursued, the pursued turned and became pursuer. Whoever inclines towards the people is pursued by the Aristocracy, and whoever inclines towards the Ari.tocracy is pursued by the people. I Whoever can solve the problem of distributing political power in such a way as shall leave the Aristocracy and people satisfied with their res. pective shares, will be possessed of no ordinary skill Poe r.—Deeply and extensively was tbe public regret expressed throughout the whole of yesterday at the resignation of Ministers, and never certainly was there greater cause to deplore any event of a similar nature. The impelling principles of the illustrious Premier and his Colleagues were those upon which alone the Government of Britain can safely or advantageously be conducted, the more especially at so momectous a period as the present—in this awful crisis of our fate— when all that is dear to us as • People may be lost by a single i2ll. prudent concession to the wishes of bad men, who under the specious pre. tepee of Reform, meditate nothing short of the destruction of the con. st kudos and the consequent ruin of the state. Of the good intentions of Earl Grey we entertain not the slightest doubt—we give the Noble Earl full credit in this respect ; but if he once sneer himself to be swayed or influenced by the evil spirits who will not fail to swarm around him, his good intentions will be of no avail, and dreadful will be the conse quence to public security, to social order and civilised man. The King, every reflecting mind must feel, has on so critical an occasion a most arduous task to perform ; and the prayers of all must necessarily be that wisdom and fortitude may safely bear him through such new and untried scenes," and enable him successfully to encounter those &flail. ties which events the most unnatural have thus unhappily brought upon his Majesty, HlRALD.,—Whatever difference :of opinion there may be as to the penny-wise" policy of Lord Lansdowne's famous economical measure of disbanding the y , we should think there can he none as to that of reviving them, with the views and for the purposes avowed at the Rochester meeting. That the yeomanry force was we of the most valuable, because the most chi , p and constitutional, which the country could possess, is what none can doubt, but those who are always talking of libertyond doing all they can to defeat It. But it is foe thing to possess such a force, ready **any emergency, and quite another to mamas It, for the express purpose of putting arms in the bands of one class of the community to be employed in deciding their personal quarrel with another. Th is was al ways an objection, and almost the only valid ob jection to the yeeutanry—that they tan the risk of being &led upon to decide, with inns in their hands, their own personal qualm& Ben, to revive them foe that expos purpose, would bespeak • spirit of infant- Wen and injustice which would threw a cloud for ever wise evezychanes of their feture usefulness. The Kentish fanons, then, in minims this sill, have by no means compionsised their patriotism, while they have shown their geed sane. Nee Is is by hem that the present stale of ships h the dirtutbsd districts can be best overcome. Let the Woos. , ors only have jostles dose them, and they will require neither =plus Der yeennary to keep them is order. THE KING'S FOURTH LEVEE.

A petite piece in two acts (from the French of course) entitled The Conscript, or, the Veteran and hie Dog, was performed for the firs! time last night. It is denominated in the bills a "dramatic tale," and is one of that numerous class founded on the rigours of the Conscription. Durocher (slr. Vooxox) haring been foiled in his designs upon Georgette(Miss FAUCIT), the wife of Frederic (Mr.Viwrao), avails himself of a Conscription to obtain by bribery the fraudulent in sertion of Frederic's name on the list, he not being regularly drawn. Georgette, however, to escape the renewed addresses of Durocher, follows her husband, and is herself pursued by the in. triguer. Frederie hearing that his wife is in the vicinity, quit. his post to obtain an interview, is apprehended as a deserter. and sentenced to be shot. In the mean time Durochcr, on the point of violently sei sing his prey, is overtaken by Frederick's father (Mr. WEISTZI)sIIC. companied by a faithful dog who attacks and vanquishes the en my. Durocher, struck with remorse, then voluntarily gives a semen con. fession of the fraud by which Frederic had been taken as a conscript, aud the father, hastening to the camp, arrives and produces the document at the moment when the muskets of the executioners are levelled. The piece is of humble pretensions, but exhibits considerable tact and skill in its construction. The parts were all very efficiently sus tained. An incidental Ballet was very prettily arranged and adequately executed. The Drama was quite successful and will have its day. The Opera of FringeAs& introduced Miss BIUCE for the first time to a London audience in the character of Linda. Ila reception was deservedly encouraging. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS, Nov. 17.

RIDLEY moved the postpooement of the election piti. dons till after the Christmas recess. As the Oovernmint was udergo. log a change, and as, after the new appointamots, some time must elapse before business could be commenced, be thought it would be most just to the parties concerned to postpone all the elections. Their were about bS of them. He moved a resisludon that the boom would sot, previously to the Christmas mei., mks into consideration any tier:- don petitions, except those fixed for the Mut and 30th instant. Mr. C. WYNN said, it would be right time neither Members nor parries should be subjected to any inconveniences that could be avoided ; but, hem what be beard, he expected that the recess would not be very early, and could not be long--he expected very little more than Christmas-day. Timm were sixty.six peddling. and fifty-Ive ballots would be required. As he imagined, as, indeed, was most likely to be the are, that there wo u ld he a very shoot RUSS, why was thaw Ito be any postpeneosent ? _ _ Mr. BROUGHAM was mach surprised at this modes.
