They have added, that they considered their honour pledged to assist the National Gual ds in maintaining the public peace. The Order then concludes with praising the courage, firmness, and moderation, displayed by the National Guard, and ordering that a staff officer should repair in the name of the commander-in-chief, to express to those that have been wounded the esteem and interest which their conduct deserves." There is no doubt but this affair has been much more considerable than it is here represented ; for when the Moniteur, from which we have extracted this Order of the Day, owns so much, more must be left •be hind. Another affair of this kind, when less prudent officers are on duty, may cost the lives of • monarchs and their armies, and the existence of a whole ca pital. ALTERCATION ErrwEEN LOUIS XVIII. AND TIIE KING OF We understand from good authority, that the Kings of Prussia and France lately had an interview, during s hick Louis X severely complained of the conduct of the Prussians towards his subjects. The Prussian Monarch reminded his Royal opponent of the oppressions of the French in Berlin ) and other parts of his dominions, during the long period of their successes. Tho conversation g rew warm, and at last Loots XVIII. positively de c la re d, that if things continued in that state, all that M ould remain for him to do, would be to constitute himself a pri. toner in the hands of the Allied Powers." To this the King of Prussia is stated to have replied, that " it might perhaps become necessary to take such a step." On which hct wo Monarchs rose, and broke up the interview. A Mail from Milan(' arrived yesterday," and brought the following article from Aix-la-Chapelle :---- Valrric . e.rties and Conde are merely garrisoned by the Town Guard 4. " Afx-t..%-eyt.tar.mrs., ACC. 17. " Some days since Baron Von Stein arrived here very tinttin^xpeetvdl y, and proceeded immediately to Paris. It is hoped that his prei•ence there %%111 have important conse quences, the Ministers of a crrottt Power having declared, It k for the integrity of France, to the disadvantage of Germany. .% private letter, which, however, w ants confirm:lion, say that they expected, at Paris, that would not maintain himself in his post much loner : he is ut variance vvith ho has contrived to gain all parties. Buonaparte, says the above letter, Ld attempted, in May last, to excite the Turks to act kgainst the Russians, while the armies of the lattPr were proceeding towards France, and F— has disclolea this pint; to the Russian Cabinet—Russia is therefore in his favour. F. likewise contrived Buonaparte's journPy to Rochefort, and his rapture by the English—by this he has gaited England. To the Austrian Court he 19 stated to hav:i disedvcred plans during the Co . , ss at Vienna —Au,tria is therefore well disposed towards him." The letter continues to say, he has the least influence on the V;us,ians, because he made the ridiculous proposal that the King should take the crown of France, as Buonaparte was ruined and the Bourbon family generally hated. Frederick only laughed at this. still, at this mo- EPT. 3. went; is acting towards all the parties an equivOCal and most dangerous part. He has pointed out many adherents of Buonaparte, who, When they come to Paris, are con• cealed and protected by him, that he may employ or:give them up as he finds convenient. The sign of the discon tented; formerly a red pink y is now a straw carried in the mouth.". Another letter says, 44 Our contributions go on slowly since the Monarchs arc here : Prussia was to have the civil administration in eleven departments, but Talleyrand is said to hate evaded this : our officers (of the police, &c.) arc idle, even Justus Groner is not active, though thou sands of the Army of the I;dire come daily to Paris, openly or secretly, and tire whole population is against us. Thu telegraphs are frequently at work without our knowing for what end. Prince Blucher, who is tired of all this, is said to have asked his discharge, which he has not how. ever obtained. All is in a state of violent fermentation ; one cannot sec how the great and complicated problems can he solved. The French universally hang upon the Emperor Alexander as their deliverer from the dismirm bering or limiting of France by- the other Powers, and yet this dismemberment seems unavoidably necessary. The situation of King Louis is the worst of all, who stands iu the most painful dilemma between the interest of his dy nas'y and that of the Allied Sovereigns, his protectors." Tuesday we received Paris Papers to the 27th, and at the same time Mails from Holland and Hamburg!' came to hand. it appears by the French Papers that the people in some of the departments have assumed the practice of assassinating the Allied troops; and many of the soldiers of the Austrian army, commanded by the Archduke Ferdinand, having thus fallen sacrifices, his Dighness has issued a proclamation from his head quarters at Dijon, directing that every commune in which any soldier shall be assassinated shall be fined in 10,000 francs, besides the punishment of the assassin. All arms are ordered to be given up forthwith under severe pe nalties. The horrible practice of assassination appears to have become very general in France ; and it is asserted that plots of the same diabolical nature have been discovered even in the capital. Ney, it is now said, is about to be tried by a Council of Marshals and Generals. The Official Get:rife contains a notification of a fot mal visit paid on Friday week to the King of France by the Emperors of Russia and Austria, the King of Prussia, the Prince of Orange, the Prussian Princes, Scc. on the occasion of the birth-day of the I"tench Sovereign.—llis Majesty on the same day received the felicitation of the foreign Ambassa dors,.to whom Talleyrand gave a grand dinner. One of the .toasts drank on the occasion by Talleyrand was, " To the Al lied Sovereigns, who discerning at once all the present daneers and all future wants, unite to preserve the civilization of Dirope, to stifle every where the germs of revolution, to dc. ,troy the spirit of conquest."—The papers are very profuse in their descriptions of the festivities of the.fe.se of the King. Any reader, who could forget the transactions of March and the three succeeding months, must itn seine the Parisians to be the most loyal, as well as the gayest of people. At every Theatre some piece was presented in honour of the da:, ; thirty thousand persons are supposed to have been enter tained in them, and each audience, in its turn, duly and often performed its Vice le Roi! The garden of the Thud• leries did not contain all the dancers, though there the grouper were formed early. During an illumination in the Pveain g, uornerous parties traversed the •streets, carrying their music with them, that they might dance where they -. i
