P.tnl4, JUNE 9.—Our corn, spondence offers the following results relative to the levy of moving batta lions of the National Guards in different depart- merits. [The Journal then recapitulates the names of 30 departments, %%jiff the amount of their respec tive levies , making, in the %thole, on aegmentation to the army of '251 battalions, perfectly armed, clothed, and equipped ; they are composed of men in the prime of life, and can reckon a considerable number of veteran soldiers. It is difficult to distin. guish them from regiments of the line.] Trains of artillery, regiments of the Imperial Guard, nos] troops of the line, cavalry and infantry, set out every day for the frontiers, by the roads to Flanders and Germany. The remainder of the Old Guard will not set out till after the Emperor. The Naticual Guard occupies almost all the posts of Paris. It furnishes the guru(' to the Chamber of Representatives.

The Constitution Oath has been taken—novr, the most urgent business is to answer by an Address to the speech of his Majesty.

In the course of this week the Prussian Provisional Government will give up the business of the administration to the Commissioners flamed by the King—who are the Mi -1 misters Counts Holonthal and Von Globig (who are returned from Vienna), and Privy Councillor Gut ! sclimid. By the sth of June the part of Saxony re maining to the King will be evacuated by the foreign troops.

COTENTUAGEN, JUNE 3.-0 o the Ist of this month we had the happiness to witvecs the return of his Majesty the King, after his long absence. A consi derable body of troops went out tat me:•t him, and formed a double line from the west gate to the Pa. lace of Amalienburg. At half-past two o'clech, the King, the Queen, and the two Princesses, entered the city in an open carriage, drawn by six white horses, amidst the loudest acclam•ttions of the public joy. The people soon took out the horses and •'•-.'w the carriage to the Palace. In the evening their Ma. jesties, with the Princesses, si.'wed the city, which % a s very fittelv illuminated. The ueatlwr was ex tremely fine, and favoured all the preorations for this day, on which the love of the Danish people to their ' Sovereign was expressed i n th e most uneq- i,.1 cal man aer.

Toe sate of Eralic is undisguiztedly laid open in this document, whirls i temp..rate and dignified, mid cal.tulated to work (nor. victories in favour of NAPOLI-APS than perhaps th. more destructive thunders which he wiel is. We b a , seeu him for months invested with unlimited authmi ty—with pot' ers in his bands sufficient to defy rest —to enable him to rule France Mithcut any Co t. stitution whatever—to carry his arms again abroad, and perhaps gratify that boundless ambien t' which he has not altogether unjustly been a c . cused of entertaining—that unlimited authwity he has voluntarily sunk in a Constitutional alet ia t e h r , imposing checks the most restrictive on himser, alai promising a substantial guarantee to Cie liberties ald independence of the French people, and has held within the bounds of peace and a tiarroar . .1 empire, amidst insults the most gallia4, t',ose couatless gious of armed men who hove our-run the world, and pant, with the eagerness of bayed and iisulted valour, to over-run it again, and take a dreadful ven geance for the imputations so unceasingly cast upon their honour. Yesterday, say his enemies, he was proud end insulting himself, even to his.friends—ta day he is betiding and meanly submissive, even to his enemies.—it is ridiculous to talk in this war r.f man whom these senseless clamourers would, after all, make out to be consisteutly and invariably a compound of the most fierce and uncon:rouleble pas. sions that can animate the human bosom—l 3 it who . . ever may be the variations of NAPOLEON'S conduct, (and even Kings ought to learn to accommodate thrrlselses to circutestanrea) it is clear that there ate no personssl sacrifices which he is not prepared to make fur the interests anti glory of France, and that the French people are duly sensible of this, and no lass gratefully prepared to make every sacrifice aisrl (iva for him--whose life is so closely coaneereil with their hap; iness and glory. Ile has told the .I*. cabins, with the rat of France—the Republican Jacobins who now compose no small part of the Le eislatis e Assemblies, that " monerelly is necessary to France," and the' , and all who have a voice, have shouted " Long live the Emperor!" Is this the low a hich the silly fancies of the hired sailers is this country represented as about to be struck by the Jac( bins ? It is, indeed, a blow ; but it has car ried death to the hopes of the party who wished to See France one wide scene of discord and slaughter. It is possible, he says, that he may be soon caller' to the heed of the armies to defend the country sasittst the formidable coalition of Kings, who now threaten the independence of France, and whose armies are approaching .the frontiers, and the amount of the forces which he has to oppose to the in vaders, that force which one of his Ministers said the other day, it was not yet time to disclose, we have now stated to the extent of one million, six hundred thousand, including National Guards of course, ready for defensive and offensive warfare. This is undoubtedly a force w bids, if it exists, and the . Allies know any thing of the state of Flaw -0, and what has lately been passing *et it, may eel' " give them pause," and may be taken as a solution albeit. hitherto most unaccountable inactivity. We shall now see from whose hands the thunderbolt is to let launched, or if it is to he launched at all. The posse/ 1111 y of the French Emperor has, in all probability, by this time, been made a certanty. Ito was expected not to delay his departure from the Capital beyond a day after the opening nod rereiring the Addresses of the deliberative part of his Govern. , input, all the dries rt merit s of which we see have now been organizeil in•n harmony. The doubtful way its which he speaks of lis departure leaves an impressinti that he is yet not without hopes that the preservation of peace k possible. Ile may, however, have other motives of policy for ea pressing himself in this way s and we shall tint be very now); surprized to have it atinuunced in the next arrivals that he is not far from the frontiers. His equipages had left Paris, and his departure at no distant period s either to Leon or Sines burgh was ronsiderril as certain. Depart when he may, it must he now es ident to his enemies, that lie leaves Pat is to none but friends--and that the faction of '' the foreigner" has not the partizans Otero that have beets said to exist.
