The Gazette °flit:idle is chieliy occupied with de details of the solemn processinn, and Mass per formed at the Metropolitan church. preparatory to the opening of the Legislative Chambers. The King, and most of the Royal Fritni!y attended, with the Peers and Deputies; and we are told th.it the ce. retnony was very imposiilg, and that the church and city rung with expressions of loyalty. This, of course, could only be exceeded by the piety of the best of Monarchs (who, amidst nil this love and adn.iration on the part of his !oval subjects, it is ternsthed %s.:s provided with a strong escort), and by the no less fervent devotion of the rest of the Royal Family, rrl neghct no occasion of teliin their beads in public, and showing how religiously inclined they are. From this subject there is the usual digressicti to the paternal intentions of his Majesty, who has certainty nitwit to pray for and much to perform. lie and Iris family see themselves restored—but how ? and to what a Country ? They have been flung by the surge of the political reflux upon the wreck of what was France. But it is not the France of the BOURBONs, sunk in super stition and slaver, and submissi,c in retchedness— nor is it that France which so lately, under the auspicys of freedom and the shade of native protec tion, r:-echoed the snug of tire lintagei. and smiled amidst cAtivation and industry—it is not that France where tilt' arts of life were perfected. and whence the world took its ton ,, .

Ho. Grace scarp s , that after the battle of NVater. 100, wren Prince Blucher arrived before Paiis, it was proposad by the French Cominissioneri to intro duce into the Convention for the occupation of the capital, a separate article respecting' the inviolability of the magnificent embellishments of the Lou% le, and other monuments of an exotic character, which, during the Government of Bonaparte, had been pro cured and appropriated to public purposes. Prince Blocher absolutely and peremptorily objected to any conditions of this kind, alleging that King Louis, subsequent to his gritting Paris on the invasion by Napoleon, had distinctly promised, that on his re turn to power the works of art belonging to Prussia should he restored. _ _ Under these circumstances, continues his Grace, all engagements as to the intangibility of these va luable effects were avoided, but it will requested by Ole French Cummi‘sionerq that no part of the pro rerty should he removed until the opportunity should have been afforded of learning the pleasure of the AMA invereigits on the .ufject on their appear ance in Par'.4. This desire was complird with, and after their arrival bpplirationi Wore made to them on the subject, when they declined any personal inter ference whatev, r. , • t procePtig to say, that the Prussians soon berame active, and obtained possession of the prim ipal part of the decorati of Berlin, Potz dam, &c.

The DAv could not be negligent of the duty thus i.np 'tied upon him by the Sovereign who bad cotili , led these troops to his disposal, and he then applied to Prince Tall , yrn ml to procure the return of the Belgic paintiogs and archives. After some delay his Grace was apprized by the Prince, that the sohjert was laid before his Majesty.

Great indignation is expressed, even in some of the Public Papers, at the introduction of Prussian troops into the Palish Royal, and at their conduct there.
