This (lay a Meeting was held at Lord ALTHORP'S Office, in Downing-street, of the Liberal and Independent Members of the House of Commons, for the purpose of concerting the measures best calculated to ensure the success of the Reform Bill, at which upwards of two hundred noblemen and gentlemen attended. Among these were the Marquis of TAVISTOCK, Lord Jolts Rus- SELL, Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, Sir ROBERT WILSON, Lord HENRY PAGET, Lord MORPETII, Mr. SMITH, Mr. ROBERT GORDON, Mr. GISBORNE, Mr. EVANS, Mr. FAZAKERLY, Lord HOWICK, Mr. WOOD, &C. &C. Prince TALLEYRAND transacted business this day, at t!.e Foreign Office, with Lord Viscount PALMERSTON. The Readers of the STAR will find, on perusal of our sub sequent columns,much interesting matter, that will be found, we can almost say with certainty, in no other Paper of this evening. The Morning Papers, with the exception of the brief mention of the reported successful achievements of the Spanish patriots at Cadiz, are entirely barren of fo reign intelligence. Although no new battle has occurred in Poland, the spirited address of General SYREz,iicKl, and the equally sphited address of the Diet to the Polish armies, cannot fail to be read with interest. Whatever prove to be the future fortunes of the Poles, and whatever the strength of their armies, in men and ma teriel, it is delightful to see them in full possession of what constitute the essentials for good fortune,—an undaunted courage, and a conviction that they are to be victorious. We perceive, with pleasure, that the season is delightfully inauspicious, for the warlike operations of the marauding hirelings. The paragraph from Milan regarding the introduction of the Duke de R EictisTs DT is curious; and reminds us of a hint given to us about ten days ago to nearly the same purport, and which, although from a well-informed source, our Readers will recollect we hesitated almost to mention. We recommend our readers to peruse with attention the remarks from Le Constitionnel and La Revolution, as in dicative of the public sentiment in France. It is pretty evident, that the new Ministers are doomed to have a stormy reign. This is confirmed by the let ter of our own correspondent ; but still more palpably il lustrated, by the account of the new association commenced in France—the particulars of which we deem most impor tant, and believe will only be found in the STAn. The most satisfactory homage lately paid to public opinion, next to our own Reform bill, is the manly declara tion of the REGENT of Belgium. It cuts at once that 0.01 dian knot of intriguing diplomacy, by which, to this time, Belgic affairs have been entangled. Luxemburgh is one third of the Republic, and it would have been base to abandon it to the vassallage of the German Diet, or isolate it between the custom houses of three powers. Justice always triumphs if boldly claimed ; and whatever may be the crooked policy of other states, which may intervene, we regard Belgium and Luxemburgh as one and indivisible, from the date of SUBLET DE CHOETER'S honest Proclama tion. He appears in truth, by this document, to prove himself worthy to guide the destinies of the most fertile, populous, and prosperous country in Europe. The Berlin Papers, which henceforth should be designated only as the Lying Gazettes. are silent about the Polish affairs down to the 11th ; we may, therefore, presume, tha t tho next direct advice. will be gratifying to the friends or the Polish cause. Ws. copied, as matter of course, their sinister paragraphs, describing the indifference of the Poles to the Russian invasion, the flight of the people from the Revolutionary tyranny, &c. &c. but the world ought to be aware, that such statements are addressed to the agitated po pulation of what is called Polish Prussia, or that part of Poland which was the share of Prussia, in the notorious triple robbery of 1774. In our allusion yesterday to the new French ministry, we described them as honest and well-intentioned men. But as we judge of a tree by its fruit, so we shall judge of them hereafter by their acts. This is the difference between slaves and freemen—slaves lick the hands of their masters, and freemen judge of them by their actions. The French are as much dissatisfied with the retention of the Chambers elected under Polignac, as we should be with the present House of Commons, if it continued sitting and enacting for eight months after the passing of the Reform Bill. They are also dissatisfied with the left-handed support given to the Spanish, Belgic, Polish, and Italian Refugees, men who made common cause with their own Revolution of July. With some respect to intelligent public opinion, we consider the Dynasty of Orleans as firmly seated on the French Throne as any in Europe; but, in a free State, public opi nion can never be safely thwarted. Last night the business of the House, till half -past eight o'clock, consisted chiefly in receiving petitions. The elec tions for Athlone, Pontefract, and Maidstone were affirmed. Mr. IltiNT reported a classification of the reform petitions; and, as it was ordered to be printed, we bopo, to-morrow, to lay it before our Readers. Some strong petitions were presented from Scotland and Ireland, from kelp makers, said to be ruined by the lowering of the duties on foreign barilla. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER gave notice, that he should substitute a tonnage duty on steam packets, in lieu of that proposed on passengers. On Sir R. FERGUSON presenting some petitions from corporations in favour of the Reform Bill, Sir C. WETHE RELL enquired whether they had not taken oaths to pre serve their privileges ? to which Sir R. F. replied, that if they had, the sooner they broke them the better—to which Mr. O'CONNELL added, that their oaths could not bind them 'to resist the law. Sir C. WETHERELL thought this jesuit ical ; but Alderman Woon stated, that no corporate oath had any relation to Parliamentary Representation. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL contradicted Sir C. WETHERELL'S statement, that at Nottingham the Goddess of Reason had been paraded in a chair ; but a loud laugh arose on Sir C. WETHERELL declaring that he had sat in it ! Petitions signed by thousands from Yorkshire were pre sented by Lord MORPETIf in favour of the Reform Bill ; and one of them was from non-resident freemen of York living in Leeds. Alderman Woon's Canine Madness Bill was opposed, and was postponed till April 13. We yesterday forebore - 747177 our acceptable abstract of the Debates, for want of room ; and we might forbear to day, from their unimportant character on the usual Wednes day's holiday. On the previous evening, the most interest ing topic was that furnished by the Petitions of the Ship ping and Mercantile interests of London, Liverpool, Glas gow, &c. against the new Timber Duties; and we con clude, from the complexion of the debate, that the design must be abandoned. We agree with several Members, that the only way to increase the revenue generally, would be to reduce duties, so as to encourage increased consumption ; and thereby add to the quantity of productive labour and public enjoyment. If the experiment 'failed, a loan would be preferable for two or three years, to those oppressions of fiscal assessments, which at once obstruct production and consumption. CITY. ONE O'CLOCK' The express from Paris has arrived, but it does not bring l any news of importance. The French Rentes come some what lower, and there seems to be a pause in the war in Poland. The proclamation issued at Brussels by the Regent , causes some sensation and curiosity in the City, and the speculators are waiting for the arrival of the Dutch steamer, expected every hour, to know what effect it will have in Holland. Consols, which left off yesterday 76i to I, opened at the same price, went down to 7.5 i ; at present they are 76i to I. The French Charge d'affaires at Berlin writes, that it was reported there the Emperor of Russia has given orders to General Diebitsch to avoid the destruction of Warsaw at all hazards. In the battle of the 25th, the Russian regiments of invincibles, and the cuirassiers, were totally destroyed. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. Consols have been fluctuating during the morning from 751 76 to 764 ; at present they are 76i, buyers. In the Foreign Market, Spanish Bonds reached 17 ; at present they are 16j. BANK or ENGLAN D.-A general meeting of the hold ers of Bank of England Stock took place this day, at which the Governor presided, and declared a half-yearly dividend of four per cent. A proprietor enquired whether any thing was known respecting the renewal of the charter ? to which the Governor replied, " Nothing more than was to be gleaned from the public journals. Lord Althorp was to bring a bill into Parliament on the subject at a proper time." Questions were asked by Mr. Revely, as to what number of notes were in circulation belonging to the branch banks ; and whether all the establishments were conducted at a profit or a loss ? The Governor could not answer these questions precisely; but he could say that the affairs of the Bank were con ducted at a profit—to what extent he could not say. An other proprietor observed it was notorious, that some time ago, the Bank purchased two millions of stock, upon which there was a loss of £250,000 ! Was that loss considered in making a yearly dividend of eight per cent. now ; where as it was formerly ten per cent ?—to which the Governor answered, that with regard to the fluctuations in the bul lion, it would be impossible to disclose this information with out disclosing the affairs of the Bank.—(Left sitting.) The sums bought in by the Saving Banks in fourteen years, have been 20 millions; the sums withdrawn, 5i ; hence the present amount is no less than 15 millions, or 20 millions of stock. Mr. Gompertz and the society for protecting animals from cruelty, continue their " very meritorioto exertions." This week they convicted an omnibus driver in 20s. and costs ; also a cabriolet driver, a carman, and a drover.— , May they persevere. . :.~i. A2,,?1; • FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE-EXCLUSIVE. PAIN.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. SlR—The new ministry has been a text for general con versation in Paris for the last two days, and a mark for all the journals to fire broadsides at. It appears to give very little satisfaction ; and as a proof that not much forbearance will be exercised towards it, out of all the liberal journals which appeared yesterday morning, only two—Le Temps and the Journal des Debats—have declared for them : all the others, amounting to eleven, declaring contra, excepting the Constitutionnel, which is neutral, or, to give it a better name, will wisely give them a trial be fore it passes judgment. The new ministry, is formed of old ministers, who have been tried in the balance and found wanting, as a new house built from rubbish, and they ex pect no solidity or union from it. It is easy to perceive that there is a determination not to be pleased with them ; nor will the French nation—or rather the people of Paris—who influence the whole nation, in a most astonishing degree, ever be satisfied, till the war party have the reins of power. There is no truth in the report of the King going to the Chamber, to make known the principles of the new mi nistry, which he has chosen. Since I last wrote you, all has been tranquil, both among the students and the workmen. I was yesterday on the Place du Pantheon, and there were about 30 workmen as sembled. One of them was haranguing his fellow labourers, and stating that although he did wear a leatheniapron,and had not a sous in his pocket, it was not a thousand francs that would bribe him. This fellow seemed so strenuous in pro mulgating his disinterestedness, and, like Fag in the Rivals, told so many voluntary lies to support the first, that I very much doubt if he was not laying himself open for a bribe ; and it leads one almost to turn a willing ear to the reports which are broadly spread, that the workmen in the late con flicts with the students, were paid for the animosity they displayed upon these occasions. One of these days, the truth will out! It is currently rumoured that a camp is about to be formed near Paris. Two regiments of cavalry have arrived, and others are expected—it is said—for the purpose of ma nceuvring. The cavalry of the National Guard is about to be increased to two thousand ; and in order to induce mem bers to enter it, the Government proposes to those who cannot afford to keep a horse, to provide the necessary provender. No fresh intelligence has arrived from Poland, since my last letter ; but all accounts agree, that the Poles are still in a situation to hold the Russians at bay ; and that their cause is far from desperate. The news from Italy is still cheering for the cause of liberty. MARIA LOUISA issues her proclamations in the true absolute vein, that one would think she had been brought up in the school of the Emperor Nicholas. A retort has reached Paris, but wants confirmation, that the Pope has fled from Rome, and that his Holiness was so pressed that he had not time to look to his temporals. During the " piping days of peace" that the Parisians seem destined to enjoy, they are luxuriating in the wonders of Paganini, the famous violinist. Enthusiasts in every thing, here their enthusiasm knows no bounds. When next I write, I will—if time admits—give you a description of this wonderful man, who under a form completely devilish— 'so much so that several ladies at the opera screamed at his first appearance—possesses such astonishing powers, that he drives his audience to a state of frenzy. He plays only his own compositions, and often composes as he plays. Many of his audience, on Sunday evening, were tearing each others hair with rapture ! and I heard of one gentleman, who actually nibbled away the whole of his hat 1 ! Yours, &c. J. L. P. S.—Lafitte has returned into the bosom of his family. Ever since Sunday his house has been crowded with the friends, whom he never abandoned. No more a minister, he retires as a private citizen, followed by the esteem of all parties. FRANCE. BIOGRAPHY OP THE NEW MINISTRY.—M. Casimir Perier was very far advanced in the good graces of Charles X. who preferred him even to M. Royer Collard, for the presidency of the Chamber of Deputies. It is Charles X. who decorated him with the cross of the Legion of Honour, to recognise the reception worthy of a consummate courtier, who had made his royal majesty the plebeian proprietor of the mines of Armin. The name of Casimir Perier figured upon the list of the new ministry which Charles X. caused to be proposed at the Hotel de Vile, after the events of July. M. Baron Louis formed part of the coterie of statesmen I who intrigued in favour of legitimacy, under the pro tection of foreign bayonets. For the price of these services he had, during several years, the finances under the Restoration. Count d'Argout, Prefect of Louis XVIII, in 1815, ordered to be burnt, by the hands of the common executioner, the tri-coloured flag; emissary of Charles X. in 1830, he negociated with the Representatives of the people for the preservation of the legitimate throne. Vice Admiral de Rigny owes to the Restoration his ad vancement and his celebrity. M. Polignac believed that he had power to reckon upon him, to form part of a ministry of his own making. If the ordonnance of the Bth of Augueti did not comprise his name in the list when it appeared, pub-, lie opinion has attributed his refusal to other motives than a political conviction. Messrs. Barthe and Montalivet have been four months in the ministry, let them rise or let them fall, 'they are judged. Honour to the brave Marshal Sault! He knows his duty towards France ; for her, he submits to such associates. Within, Messrs. Desmortiers and Persil, judges of Charles X. or worthy to be so ; without, .Messrs. Talleyrand and Mortemart, Ministers, Ambassa dors ordinary and extraordinary of Charles X ! Ah 1 gen tlemen, you wished unpopularity to govern, you hare got it! Patriots of Paris, patriots of the Departments, the hour of the crisis approaches ; associate to assure the indepen dence of France, and the perpetual expulsion of the elder branch of the Bourbons.—La Revolution. A Committee is formed at Paris, and has ordered the following act of association, to be presented for the signa tures of the patriots of the department of the Seine. The act is deposited at the Constitutionnel, Courrier Francais, the National, Journal du Commerce, and the Tribune.— The first list of signatures will be speedily published. " Con sidering that the revolution of July has made the national Sovereignty the basis of our public right ; that already, in 1789, the triutnps of these principles had armed against us the greater part of the absolute Kings of Europe, who did not lay aside their arms until after having twice established a government founded upon the right divine; considering that it is natural to fear that the same interests will dictate to the Kings of Europe the same conduct in regard to France; considering that the new coalition will endeavour to attain the end of again raising the throne of Charles X. or the partition of France ; consider ing that in 1815 France, delivered to foreigners by the fact of treason, or the cowardice of some depositaries of power, had not sunk if there had existed in each department centers of action to rally all citiaens ready to perish to save their country from invasion—the patriots of the department of the Seine, applauding the sentiments which has dictated to their brothers of Moselle, the patriotic association of Moselle—they order : Art. 1. An association is formed in the department of the Seine, to assure the independ ence of the country, and the perpetual expulsion o f the elder branch of the Bourbons. Article 2 Ai l those to be members of the society, who h ave in. scribed, or who may inscribe, upon one of the lists deposited at the journals indicat‘d above. Art. 3. F . ,„ 1 , associate is engaged to pay an assessment of 25 centiutei per month. Art. 4. All associates to engage, upon l i r,. and honour, to combat, by all personal and pecuniary s ae „_ Sees, foreigners and the Bourbons, and never to associate with them, at whatever extremity the country may be r ( . duced. Art. 5. A first list of signatures will be publislitd immediately. The ten first signatures inscribed at each of the journals above named will unite, on a day indicated by the committee, to consult upon the best means of prop agat i ng . the Society in the Department of the Seine." The country expects from the new ministry the solution of the principal question of the moment, that of peace and war ; for it is time to quit a situation which is neither m u -, nor war. It is not war—since the armies are not oppn.ed to each other ; it is not peace—since there exists betucen France and certain Governments certain grievances e ithou t any project of reconciliation—since, on both sides, they arm and take positions. This equivocal state is intolerable for France ; obliged to support the charges of war, without power to calculate the chances of victory, and who dare not confide in a future full of stormy presages. There exist. not in France what can be called a war party : every both aspires for peace; but there exists a party who believr that power would arrive by the way of arms : there is one which would attempt the way of trea ties. Both can support their opinions upon solid ground. But between the two parties, there is a third, the least rea sonable, the most imprudent of all, the party of stutu qua : that which can promise us no result either honourable or ad vantageous. The public right of Europe has reposed durin.„ fifteen years upon the treaty of Vienna. The allied cabinets have founded a system of coalition in which France was com prised, or rather imprisoned ; she broke from it violently by her revolution of July. Who doubts that she has shaken the system ; France cannot be denied the good faith, that in chasing away the Bourbons, she protested against the humiliating treaties to which those Princes had subscribed in her name and against her wish. It would be in vain for her to deny , this ; she would lie without deceiving any person, and without deceiving the enemies which her revo lution has made. There are those who would constrain her, under the penalty of perishing, to re-enter the system ; and she would herself perish, if she were to re-enter it. This reciprocal situation of France and the allied Cabinets, is a state of perpetual collision, incompatible with peace.— If the Cabinets do not dare to avow it, it is to the in terest and honour of France to acknowledge it freely. A Government worthy of itself must declare that it is not its intention to submit much longer to the condition of a conquered people ; which intends to retake in Europe the rank from which it has fallen ; If the Powers consent to treat with us upon the basis de posited in the name of France, then we shall have peace. and we shall enjoy it. No more causes of defiance, no more conflicts, a general disarming, revival of industry, re establishment of benevolent relations between governments and between nations. If these propositions of France are rejected, if all amiable accommodation is impossible, war to conquer peace; war rather than state quo without solidity and without honour, rather than a beggarly respite, at the cost of continual sacrifices ; rather than an armistice troubled by alarms at all hours.—Le Constitutionnel. POLAND. PARIS, MARCH 14.—We have news from Warsaw up to the 3d of March. The Russians had not made any se rious demonstration against Praga. Some detached corps, . . in the night of the lei of March, bad approached the walls, but they were driven away by a discharge of artillery, and 20 Cossacks remained in the power of the Poles. On the 2d, some squadrons of irregular cavalry again advanced towards the place ; but the fire from the batteries imme diately dispersed them. The most ardent enthusiasm con tinues to reign in the army and in the population. The weather is horrible ; snow, wind and rain, succeed without interruption, and vie with each other in violence. The Polish army is sheltered in the city, and in the exterior barracks. The new commander-in-chief, General Skrynecki, passed a brilliant review on the let of March, and addressed the fol lowing order of the day to the army : HEAD QUARTERS, WARSAW,FEB. 28TH, 1831.—Sol dire and brothers in arms,—lt is certainly the will of GOD that has caused me to be nominated as your chief. The Senate, the Chamber of Nuncios, and the National Govern ment, have honoured me with this difficult charge, which I shall certainly worthily fulfil as much as your valour and constancy will second me strongly. Soldiers, we have be fore us an enemy proud of its good luck, of its forces, and of the influence wfiich it exercises in Europe. But if, on the one side, power appears to be formidable. on the other the outrages with which the Russian authorities have over whelmed us, would render us guilty in the eyes of GOD and man, if—full of confidence in Providence, and the holiness of our cause, we did not boldly measure swords with our oppressors. We have sworn in our souls and consciences that we will be entirely faithful to that device which we continually repeat—conquer or die for the country—and, certainly, in the annals of the world, we shalt serve as an example as defenders of the sacred and inviolable rights of nations, if we cannot become the conquerors of our powerful enemy, we will not live to submit to those who have violated all good faith in regard to us—it is to that glory I call you, and in that career, sown with dangers, I offer you crowns of laurel. We shall certainly gain if you second me by your valour, your unity, your submission, and promptitude to fulfil the orders which I give you. The commander-in-chief of the armed national force, True Copy.—The Colonel Chief of the Etat, (Signed) SKRZYNECKI. Major General (Signed) CHRZANOWSKI. The Diet has published the following proclamation : " Warriors !—Your heroism in all the sanguinary combats which have taken place nearly under our eyes, the environs of Praga covered with the corpses of the enemy, numerous prisoners brought within our walls, cannon taken, standards carried off, behold the symbols of your steady courage ; and the duty of the representatives of the people is to declare that you have deserved well of the country. The Diet strives and ever will strive to recompense your conduct. Whilst we hare such defenders, the salvation of the country will be assured." It is said at Warsaw that a corps of Krucuses had pene trated into Volhynia, and had succeeded in propagating in surrection. The Gazette of Prussia of the Bth does not give us this day any news of Poland : but from various private letters of Warsaw, published in the Gazette d'Angsbourg of the 10th, we are more and more induced to hope that the situation of Poland is far from being desperate. Several of these letters give a formal contradiction to the false reports of the taking of Warsaw. Some even go so far as to say, that the Rus sians will never take the capital by force, and that Field- Marshal Diebitsch will not enter Warsaw as he entered Adrianople.—Messager des Chambres. ITALY. MILAN MA=CH 6.--P R IVATE CORILESPONDENCL.•-• For some days the Austrian authorities have announced that the Emperor of Austria had granted to the Duke of Heichatadt the permission to serve in Italy.
