Since the army has been disbanded they have assumed a stiO higher tone; and one would imagine it was 'deb enough before, us the King pos sessed barely the shadow of • sovereignty without a particle of power. Tire Tyger held out his paw to the King to feel how soft and velvety it was, and ut terly destitute of even the principles of injury.-- LOUTS put out 'his hand—' soft, indeed, and per fectly harmless,' said his Majesty,—' the story of the Tyler's claws is a mere fable, a bug bear for children; I will instantly disband the army, and rely entirely on the peaceful, gentle na ture of my friend Tyger.' The army was disbanded —the Tyler yawned, put his net twos and muscular powers in melon, and discoveeed the same paw armed with the most dreadful claws. The King was I . :;glltettc(l—t ,whale of the oratory' %vele fri,;t.tetitd ! ' What is to be done— e here is FouctiE —a here is my dear TaarooritaNn?' 1 he two latter entered ; the former bold, inflexible, and undismayed, said, I have long told your Majesty so, but you would not hear me—the longer is great, pers.:hie, we must all unite to * * **,o. so sure as I flow arl;lress your Majesty, the inevitable cousequence %ill be " * *."

Tato.evitasio, with that ninning grace which lots always enabled him to be the Vicar of Bray, ever since the commencement of the Revolution, made a low bow to his Majesty.— ' Ile not ale mail, Sire;' it is true, the Ty ger has claws! I knew it lona ago, but it was not worth troubling the repose of y our most Chtistiati Majesty ; for between ourselves, Sire, there is more to fear from France herself than from the Myles ; as to the latter, if me can (oily act the sisortlto follow the trace of the pee, ill will he well.

In this sketch your Majesty will be pleased to recollect I always except my Lord Viscount CA , TI.I:REIGIf, Who is a marvellous proper man for an Amhzsooler, only it is a pity that he does not un deroanti tither French or Latin, being obliged to write his notes to the Congress in plain English : he is a perfect master in diplomacy, and gained the con fidence of all hurtles by making a confident of each, and exhibiting complaints against all the rest : besides, he was the only one who had any thing to give, and, therefore, was flattered by each in their turn, and —pardon me your Majesty, did you ever see a gobe snonche ?" Never.'—' Nor L but once, Sire.— BAt to return—l know the character of every tore of the parties ; and whatever pains they take to make what they fancy a fires contract, I will introduce a eause to render it it ugvtory ; added to which, your Majesty, one of the great Powers will be bankrupted, and the rest quarrel amongst themselves in less than three yenrs.'—',Witat,' eaelaimed F---E in a rage, is the honour, the salvation of France to depend on the contingencies of one of our enemies, I mean o r friends, becoming bankrupt, and the rest clear ?' and with more violence than good !weed ing he hastily left the room.—' That is a most au dacious impudato fellow,' exclnimed the King, ' who three; to tell me that nil France cries out against my tiovernmeot.'-- Ile is vielrat, your :Majesty, tool unfortunately trowel ful ; it is, however, (tat:genius to he without him. lie has honesty enough to he faithful to Lis employer, even when he has ceased to approve of his curtduet ; but once accept his resigttas tion, he Own thinks himself free, and becomes a dangerous enemy.

Three hundred thousand bayonets may hold it in check, but tine flame is ill burst forth, and when it does, terrible will be the result. The French begin to lose their patience at t heinsolervee of the foreign utficets; how a high spirited nation has borne it so long is what surprises many.
