The melancholy effects of restrictions on the liberty of the Press, is evidenced by the state of these public organs, if we may so call machines which convey no poblic intellig•ence on the most momentous suhjects, but are c►►nfined to Court paragraphs, annonces, and a few notices of new publications. A private letter from Paris, of the lit of June, " It was very• generally rumoured last night that the SwedA Consul General resident here, M. de Signeul, had quitted Paris, in consequence of some difference which existed tweets . his Court and that of the Tuileries.
