Paris Papers of Monday have arrived, but bring no intelli gence of importance. Preparations for war are actively conti nued. We are happy to observe, by an article in these Journals, tinder the bead of Bremen, that a considerable jealousy prevails amain the minor States of Germany concerning the intentions and views of Austria. The Congress which this Power proposed to assemble at Mauna for the purpose of modifying, alias curtailing the privt. Jesse of the Press and of the Constitutional Governments of Ger many, will not meet, because the minor Powers refuse s to accede to it. The Governments of Bavaria and WirteMberg !ems, in- . deed, disposed tomake COMI7IOII cause with theireubjectit in pup.: port of National Independence; and their resistance to tbevlews of Austria will have a powerful influence- in' preventing that Power from engaging very actively in the contest between i:rancr and Spain. The cause of the Greeks, we areitappy to abserse, by ',Rao. tick hi the Jour=las Debate, continues so prosper. We have received this morning Bayonne Papers of Febtisrt 11, and Ilabon Papers to Febevary 8, but they contain no in telligence of importance. ' Nothing mates us regret more the probability : of ill Europe, than the effect which ft. wevki Asses and whieh even the 'expectation of it at this moment has in abstracting:tie atten tion of the Public from our domestic concerns. Poi die however, these are of paramount importance. .Why should we contend for the liberty of other propir,-and continve - onrseterre prey to numerous vexatious?
