1 1 . 7v- H FOREIGN INT ELLIOE.VCE. FROM THE PARIS PAPERS.' OD TN. Terlol Ate no HIS MAJLITY Tilt IMPLROD •ND ICING, VOTLD IN TNT SITTING Of Till Met went ass. Stait-eAt the moment when your fa:thful sub jerfts, the Members of the 'Tribunate, have learned that their Nations touch their termination, they have felt it their duty to elamine themselves upon the manner in which they have fill. d them, and, in sieeking what proof they might be able to advance their favour, they have d scovered new !reasons for carrying to the foot of the Throne the homage of their admiration, and of their gratitude. • The Tribunate was placed in the constitutional system, to be the organ of the public opinion. If the duty imposed upon us bas been easy to fulfil, it is because Your Majesty has united every species of and surpassed all hopes. Sire, when your wisdom effaced the traces, and almost the remembrance of disot der preceding your reign; when your powerful hand gave a new im pulse to all the parts of the administration ; when your genius conceived those laws which place the do/trine of passed ages in da-mony with the expe rience of modern times, we had only to mingle our applause with the general aeclamations.—Several times the imprudence of foreign nations dis turbed them with shouts of war, but France re mained inaccessible to every kind of alarm. In pre saging, then, so many triumphs, so many triumphs' speedily followed by the most memorable trea ties. we only expressed the confidence with which familiarity with prodigies had inspired your good and great people. Sire, admitted, for the fast time, to offer you the expression of the sentiments wth which the Tribunate has been constantly animated for your August Person, we cannot suppr• s; a lively emotion, bu: it shall not ,prevent us from chewing ourselves, to the encl, religious interpreters of the publi.: opinion. W.' 4onour with it the ele vated ideas which induce Your Majesty to surround the Legislative Body with a new consideration, and tit mit& the institutioes which are so intimately connesed with the national interest. Sire, we dare to measure back, with a satisfied eye, the space which we have traverse, confident of having always walked in the paths cf honour and fidelity ; and since Your Majesty deigns to bestow cn u. so lemn testimonies of your approbation and benevo lence, we do not so much think that we have arrived at the end of our political care( r, as that we have accomplished the otsjeet of all our efforts, and have gained the most valuable reward of our attachment. taro, Sept.
