We base given, from the Paris Papers of Tuesday and Wednesday, copious details of the entrance of the King of FAA/ice into his good city of Paris. It would be hardly fair to criticise the overflowing loyalty with which lb, journalists express themselves on the happy occasion. We must allow much for a people so fond of pomp and parade as the French; and to speak the sober truth, we must admit that the conduct of CHAILLES X. has hitherto been well adapted to conciliate their feelings. If, however, what our Correspondent states be true, this sp..eterete was rwt altogether that joyelise entree, which the Censor-ridden Papers would lead us to believe. The following is his • reign of the afrair ; and considering that he writes with out fear, favour, or affection, towards any of the parties concerned, we have no doubt that our readers will agree with us, in relying upon him, rather than upon those, who, If they dared to publish unwelcome truths, cannot. 44 PARIS, SEPT. 27. " The bad weather greatly perplexed the arrangements made for the entry of the Ks NO into Paris, and, in conse quence, the ceremony had more of melancholy than the teneral of Loris XVIII. • There was not seen to-day, as on Thursday last, an innnetse populace (endimanehe), in their Sunday clothes, pressing gaily towards the passage of the procession, seated at tables in the open air (trin yitamt le verre d la main) drinking 1,61,-111141-nub glasses, as merrily as at a village wake. The curious were crowded together under umbrellas, but the rain seemed at once to have completely drenched t'.eir clothes and damped their spirits. It was, in fact, the eon:re-rattle of the funeral and its solemn accorepaninicnts. However, curiority to a certain degree triumphed over the bad weather, and e great number of Parisians crowded each side of the passage of the FANO, Will/ that eagerness wlt'cli the Parisian always inataiit.t when there is a spectacle to be seen sett free. The KING, notwithstanding the heavy rain, appeared in perfect good-humour, and whether it was that he had extra clothing, as a precaution against bad weather, or whether that his health is much improved, it was generally observes! that hr was more eabospint than he was supposed to have teen. The !rule MOserass, who was dressed in a pr ier!, hnitssr . unirorm, attrectcd particular attention by his very tr.:.kittc neptaranc.., but be was certainly the only use among the It sal Priuccis to whom a similar compli leer.% could be paid. The whole was conducted ia good order. A great number of petitions were presented to his 3.lA.ltsry while passing the Champs El . yses, which he received with frcat aff:ol::ity, but wields st is possible will -n that account be the snore attended to.

SoaraleNaa DS LA a:LT is among the number, who is also the la Cass, d'Asuovtissement des Juvriaa.r. The . ea %Tatars pretend that this nomination is hers to the buying over the journal*, mid the bargaining with consciences (aux adults &jawing:sr, rt as Ira,* des constiencal. It is by no means impossible that, strictly spepking, similar acts may not be renewed under the reign of CH•IILES X., while M. DS VILLILIL is Mi nister, and M. SOETUS24 BS DS Ro est IYOUCAU mr continues his employ of d'Accapareur de Consciences, however disho nourable that employment may be ; but it is abusing the gift of second-aght to pretend to discover .the sanction of the KING for purchasing the Journals, in the nomination of M.SoltTttctcrs Ds ROCHSTOUCAU as his Aid-de-Camp. The imputation is the less justified, as this nobleman was previously Aid-de-Camp to Mout Rua, and who, being now King, has preserved all his fanner Aides-de-Camp. The nomination of M. BOSTIIINKS Da ROCHLrOUCAULT is therefore nothing more than the consequence of a general measure, and does not warrant any particular inference. " The prompt translation of the body of the late Kt No, and the opening of the theatres, have excited fennel astonishment, as it was at first announced that the latter would be closed for fifteen days. The nose of the change, is however, at length well known. M. DIM &VIC AU, the Prefer of Police, addressed three successive reports to the Council of Ministers, in which he declared that the shut ting up the theatres rendered the duties of the police ex tremely difficult to perform, and that it became indis pensable that they should be opened; and it was on the email his third report that they decided on re-opening them. Our private Corespondent at Madrid gives us some cu rious and important ezplanations of the cause of the arrest of M. Cauz, the Minister of War. It appears that Cauz was secretly the abettor of the views of General C who had attempted to effect an insurrection in Arragon. The plan was, to have excited the people to arms in that and the neighbouring provinces, and as soon as he had foundliimself at the head of a roma sufficiently imposing to have compelled the KING to make some modifications in his Government, the particular nature of nhich are not well known ; but above all, that he should give orders for the evacuation of the Peninsula by the French troops. A great number of military, and several persona of distinction, were connected with this plot, of which Cans was the principal agent. A quantity of important papers have been found upon his person, which it is feared will give rise to several arrests. Cauz is still kept as secret k plus rigourcvx. The knowledge of this affair has produced a strong tensation at the TuAcries. It is discouraging to the French Go vernment to find that the Spanish Ministers themselves conspire to drive the French troops out of Spain. It is thought that the French Court will insist strenuously that Frain NAND should cause this affair to be fully investigated, and that those who may be found involved in it should Luca with exemplary punishment. Da spatches were yesterday received at the Colonial Office from Cape Coast Castle, dated the 12th and 18. h of July, announcing the highly gratifying intelligence that the Asbantees were signally defeated in a general action on the 11th of July. Presuming on their success over the late Sir CIII ARIA' WCAarnr, they came down to th e coast in great force, with the King at their head, avowedly to take the Castle, and utterly destroy the Beitish power. Fifteen thousand of these savages are calculated to have taken part in the battle. They were allowed to advance within the range of our field-pieces, when the artillery opened upon them, and occasioned great havoc and con sternation. The grape and canister shot produced terrific effects, and finally a gallant charge of the British troops' routed the enemy, who fled in every direction. Our loss did not exceed five hundred killed and wounded, principally Fantess. The battle was fought within three-quarters of a mile from the shore. On the 12th and 13th some skirmishes took place with detach ments of the enemy, in which they were again de feated with loss. One of the 'first results of our success was, the release of Mr. WtLLlAres, who Lad so long been de taimsl a prisoner by the Mhantees. Lieutenant-Colonel Se t /It a LA t n, who command( II the British forces on the day of the victory, came home with the despatchn in the Thetis frigate. The charge had therefore devolved on Colonel GRANT. The thrs,tches were instantly forwarded to Earl 11.11UURST, who is at his seat in Gloucestershire. The following are the only accounts that hare yet transpired : Poevsnourn, SKFT. B). Arrrived his 31ajesty's frigate Thetis, of i 6 guns, Sir John Phillimore, Kin., with despatches from Cape Coast Castle, an pouncing that the Asbantees were totally defeated in an action which took place on the 11th of July, between their forces, cum— mended by the King in person, and a British allied force under the armband of Lieutenant.Cohniel Sutherland, in which our form sustained a loss of about WO men in killed and wounded, prin. cipally of the Ventre force. Captain was the only officer killed. The amount of the lms of the Aslaantets is nut known. Their force was estimated at about 15,000 men. We had oppor tunity, in this bottle, of the use of fieki.pieces„ from which were fired grape and canister shot, which caused great havoc among the enemy, and so much surprised them, that they showed no disposition whatever to renew the battle. They eame down with a determined intention to take the castle. The battle arcs fought about three quarters of a mile from the shore. Parties of 'amities and %Amoco were landed from the Thetis to all in the contest. When the Thesis left Cape Coast, on the 2.2.1 July, nothing had been beard Or seen of the enemy since the Ironic, although ponies had been sent out in search of them. It was therefore supposed that tie y had given up the contest, and hod -cored to their urn country. t'olonel Sutherlsed came hunt° in the Thetis.
