[Prow a Moiling P4p tr.] IVe begin to perceive here all the symptoms must necessarily accompany the period of the meeting of the Chambers. It is certain that the Ministry, or a part of it, or at least one individual Minister, is very much afraid of this re-entrance on legislative duties. it is felt that all the Ambassadors of France at foreign Courts—all, with the 'exception of the Ambassador et London, hostile to the majority of the Chamber—must have inspired the different Sovereigns of Europe with great alarm at it ; ichiefs citcumitance, during some months opinion' which will havd appeared unanimous as' to the feelings of,Ettrope against that majority. party,i - or this individual of the MinisrtY'allsre alluded to, fears nothing so mach as the re-assembling of the Cnsiither, composed as it now is. The following is- the• singelsr Otto tpliicl,, . would appe3r, has been Adopted ; And With rc Bard to which is „added, that it is only post potted for a short time, that the fate-of the Kies; may not be disturbed by its publication. A roya Ordinance will appear, importing That the King feels daily more and nacre convinced of tit necessity of in no respect departing from the constitution : That the existing Chamber of Deputies is composed in ; manner precisely and literally contrarrto that constitution : The Constitution ants, that the. Chainber ought' to consist` of only 270 members, and there are 400. It says that the members should have reackedithe age of 40; and there are matty4ba are not 25 years old. The King was lid to assent to this by Counsels not sufli citntly'enlightened; He sets this example of returning to that sacred text from which lie will never sorerver Pre refolds being unable to cows vote isCloamber so devoted ; but presumes that a great num" , her of its 'members Will'be re-cle'eted. This OrdintlncC will announce, that the new Chamber will be sioninnued for the lit Of'Novetn - ber, and that •a subsequent Ordinance shall reLm bite the, convocatiopand lot mation Of the Electo ral College'. As a consequence of this plan, it is believed, that tie grand blow .being once struck, Ministers will feel pnblic opinion on the stikicet of the adoption, in the course of September, of one or other of the three following steps :- Ist. To assemble for new elections the Electo ral Colleges, such as they existed in 1815, taking care to substitute for the adjuncts of that period adjuncts of the liberal or winisterial way of think ing._ TO retain the existing Chamber, striking ot(t all such as are under 40 years of age, and drawing lore for the rest, in order to reduce the whole .to 2.70 members, in the hope that, thus mutilated and ►neuaced with dissolution, it may become flexible and manageable.' Or 3d—and this is the boldest comic of all: an actual appeal to revolutionary i►ower resuscitated-- To convoke some new electural revolutionary bo dies, and to compose them (401 those to whom the constitution leaves the power of becoming electors, paying only 300 francs.

" The wink British. force to be maintained in the Mediterranean—that is to say, in the lonian • United States, Malta, and Gibraltar—during the peace, is only estimated at 11,000. . • 44 The French seem desirous in increase, by re presentation, the difficulties we have to encounter in Barbary ; hut it our fleet wove success/id (for which it must have the good wishes of Christen .dom, although 1 apprehend fiery tittle collateral assistance frnm the States in the Mediterranean, which, I maintain, a rc snore interested in the re— salt than England'is herself), the Parisian Editors will soon change their tone, and pretend to dis cover that the obstacles which they. have stated were exaggerated." • A titivate letter of the 210,init, from Paris con tains the. following statenient :—" Mr. %%'l4,sotg, Consul of- the United States at.Nantet, hatiseve mai warts discussions with the Commissary, who endeavoured to subject the American merchant captains to minute and,rexations formalities, whith Materially infringed 'on all liberty of commerce.

BROUGHAM is waiting. in Switzerland to have an interview with the Princess of 'WALES, who has some very important affairs, to Consult him upon. Sir SAMUEL ROMIELY's journey there is thought •to have a similar object.—(rlloraing Herald) it is always with reluctance we either originate or copy any reports in this unpleasant subject ; but the hints now (illy thrown out are. becoming so palpable, and the matter alluded to. so in teresting to the Cut,,mtry, that it would look like affectation or ignorance to tibtairi from no ticing it noy longer. In what we state, however, we claim to be distinctly understood us speaking from report rather than from information to the authenticity of which we can pledge ourselves. Briefly then, it is insinuated that a High Per sonage has . obt►►ined new grounds for desiring the legal dissolution of a connection which has from its very commencement (with the exception of OWE circumstance) been a fruit• ful source of disquiet and distress to all the Parties concerned. 'Far be it fr om us t o p re j u d ge this; I mpurtatit case in any point of view. In the temper of the times it is most probable that a measure of this kind would not be thought of, unless the proof was expected fully to sustain the allegations on which a separation will be demand ed. Further we will not presume to anticipate.- Among the painful results of the resolu►ion said to be entertained, whether it shull ever be carried into effect or not, is, we grieve to hear, a species of estrangement between the nearest rela tives of this Family at home. In short this, and not indisposition, is the reason assigned for the absence of the Daughter from all the late Entertainments. Should the matter be truly stated, there can be no doubt but that th" feelings of that Personage must be deeply otichAd j, but y44,it is wimps snisfortnrie of her condition, that she has, a highei , duty to per form than that which private considerations can dictate, end we trust she will bear in mind, in the part she takes on this occasion, that the Country will be most gratified and benefited by her observ ing as strict a neutrality as is possible. We fear that we shall have more than once again to recur to this topic, and shonid censure fall on us for being more explicit than a n y Journ:,l has ,yet been on this subject, we 'nest rely for our excuse nn the firm conviction we feel, that it is at once a better anti safer course than to deal mit "lints and inginuatious which can only tend to the injury of all. • The Paris Papers of " Friday and Saturd.v reached us this morni ng , b ut t h ey are more ()reti e pied with anticipations of the King's VOte than with interesting news. The, Duke of WELLING TON will stay only,a few days after this ceremony.' His Grace. returns to Cambray. These Journals are still silent respecting the alledged nistuabances at Mentz and Stras burgh. It is true that wider the Police Regu lations this tines not entirely discredit the story, but , when we observe that the Dutch and German ,Papers, which are fire enough to insert such intelligence, are equally silent, we must re vert .to our first conclusion, that the private let ters which, announ ce d th ese di stur b ances are not the. vehicles for authentic information. The Man in the Chronicle is certainly a facetious lie accused Ministers of making no re :renchments, and to ponfine him, retrenchments to the amount ofinearly Ten Millions since the pro- I rogation of Parliatnent were particularized: lie is now attotaking these items, and his manner is so curious tharit cannot fail to amuse tae Public. It was stated that the Army had been reduced ten thousand men, and the Man in the Chronicle does not deny this fact, but replies that they are men enlisted for limited service, whom there could be no excuse for keeping any longer, antl,,quoth he-4" Let us see the regiments reduced to the " same state is in ; 1792, then we will believe " they (Ministers) are in. earnest." Ab, cunning Isaac, thou art truly a droll (log ! It was stated that the Ordnance Expenditure was reduced from ,four millions to one, and this is not a reduction in the soh/ries of the Boar*, but obtained by the dismissal of "ZiO or 60 Clerks with salaries from 70/. to 1201. a-year, and a CO seniors put on halt-pay." Thus he accounts foe three millions of money saved.!!! But the general and grand argument against Ministers is, that they do not retrench npoa the Civil but upon the Military Establishments. " It would have been extraordinary indeed (0 " the Man) if great reductions had not taken "'place "'place in the expenditure of chat enormous esta" " blishment at the end of the wars." He Lien! then, good Monsieur let Illinisfers have doe credit for these "great Redactions,'" and do not let us hear any more of their bound less profusion and extravagance, of (heir keeping up.the War Establishments during Peace, and do" ing, nothing to relieve the country from an over* ; : whirlining expenditure. This is all the friends of the Government bale ever contended for. They have said it was inipcn*i Able to drop at once born the prodigious expeneet. of stkh a struggle as4hat which is just finished to :the economized issues of such a peace as that which has just been made. They have said " softly, . by degrees," and safely, and your army will be. what it was, not only in 1792, but in the best red . riods of your histdry (always having reference to the military condition of the other European Powers)—your burthens will be gradually ditna. nished—the inconveniences nod distresses M 6" dent to any great change, whether from Peace to War, or from War to Peace, will be remora, -Commerce will find its new channeli, Indotri. its sufficient encouragement, Society its balance , and the Whole C ountry i ts prosper i ty.
