&Wiled tolay before the Chamber a plan of con dust, a system of administration. Probably they durst not avow their projecte. So much blindness sail ignorance of their position was all that re maimed, as far as the Ministers were concerned, of that memorable debate. A notable majority sanctioned, In these terms, the address to the King " The intervention of the country," said the Chamber, " makes of the permanent accord of the political views of your government with the wishes of your people the in dispensable condition of the regular course of public affairs. Sire, our loyalty, our devotion to your Majesty, condemn us to say that this accord dues not exist. Let your royal wisdom decide between those who comprehend not a nation se calm, so faithful, and us who, with a pro found canvictien, come to depose in your bosom the sor rows of a whole people." This noble language is not listened to, and the Chamber is as much surprised as hurt at the answer that was made to it. " I bad a right," said the King, " to expect that the two Chambers would be in accord with me ro my heart is afflicted in see ing the Deputies declare that on their part this accord does not exist." Perfidious insinuation to which the counsellors of the Crown do not fear to add, that the resolutions expressed in the speech from the throne were ims mutable. The Chamber was adjourned, and this adjournment was the prelude of the fate reserved to it. The dissolution was not pronounced at once; the Ministry wished to have the time to prepare the new elections, and, as will be seen, to exercise over them the most culpable influence. Reliance was placed upon a great military enterprise to act upon the mind of a nation enthusiastic of glory. The insult offered to our flag was, the pretext of it. Nothing was ne glected to ensure its success; the treasures of the state were squandered, our best troops marched to our coasts, and an immune armament destined to convey them. These expences, incurred without the intervention of the Chamber, would alone suffice to lay the groundwork of an accusation, if it did not sink into insignificance before that which now oc cupies our attention. But the success which they promised themselves would have been incomplete and valueless, if they had not obtained it by one of those warriors, the pride of France, who had so often led our soldiers to victory. The command of that expedition was given to the same General whose appearance in the Ministry had so strongly stung the honour of France. His triumph was reckoned upon as the means of destroying our liberties. The nation was not deceived ; and if it accompanied with its good wishes the fleet which conveyed so many Frenchmen, it was easy to per ceive the extreme unpopularity of the expedition, Franco had already been alarmed with the spectacle which several of the departrnents of ancient Nor mandy had presented. The flames had there de- toured indiscriminately the cabins of the poor, and the mansions of the wealthy,—frightful conflagra- Cone, whose true author had escaped the inquiries of justice, forced the citizens to arm themselves to watch over their properties, and their minds were given up to the highest exasperation. It was scarcely natural to ascribe these crimes to private malevolence : the cause of them was sought in a political combination, and suspicions arose to implicate the Government itself. Your commission have caused extracts of the numerous proceedings on the subject of these crimes to be laid before them. They have perused the voluminous corres• pondence to which the inquiry has given rise, and have found in it so much obscurity that It will be difficult to arrive at just conclusions. It is certain, however, that the conflagrations of Normandy were not private crimes,,nor can they be ascribed to iso lated or unconfederated individuals. It is also cer tain that a kind of fanaticism was there at work. Various facts, and especially the obstinate silence of the individuals, in the act of perpetrating these crimes, seem to prove it. Capital condemnations were pronounced : the guilty heard their sentences pronounced with corn postire, and displayed the most incomprehensible ob stinacy, as if an oath had bound them to secrecy, and lied given them courage to face their fate. The magistritto continued their inquiries; but it will re quire time, to develop dui real statement of these frightful deeds. In the mean time a new division took place in the Cabinet. It is uncommon to meet with seven men equally disposed to brave the public hatred, and to overturn the laws and institutions of a state. Two of the Ministers recoiled from the designs of their colleagues, and appeared to feel the dreadful respon sibility about to be incurred. It becuMe necessary to think of replacing them. Men of action were needed : they were sought for among our more noted political men—those who had given the greatest impetus to the counter-revolution, and whose cha racter, was cunsenuently, the most disagreeable to the country. The Count de Peyrommt, whose items so sadly recalls the recollection of a Ministry which . had been branded by the former Chamber— Monsieur de Peyronnet, besides a general accusation not yet purged, on whom there lay all the weight of that which related to cruelty, and a denial of justice towards men of colour of Martinique—re ceived the portfolio of the Interior: his enterprising character induced him to direct the acceleration of the movement which was to place him in dila branch of the public administration. The division of this same Ministry was givers to M. Baron Capelle, who Mad shown himself expert in the art of managing elections. This was his title to favour. At length, M. de Chantelatize had fixed upon him the attention of We Crown, by the wish expressed in the pre ceding session to promote a monarchical title of Sept. The seals were confided to him : let us always say that it was unnecessary to force o ffi ce upon interrogation diselosee in this respect some de tails, which it is the duty of the Commission to reproduce. Named a first time Minister of Public Instruction, he refused ; named more recently to the department of justice, he expresses! a similar refusal ; but new circumstances arose, and did not leave him free to persist in this resolu tion. In fact, there has been found in the docu ments seized at the Tuileries, the original letter written to him by M. de Poliguac, which is dated Oa the 30th of last April, as well as the copy of the answer sent to that letter by M. de Chantelatize, dated from Grenoble, on the 9th of May following. In that he expresses a great mistrust of himself, and Woke it less convenient on the eve of the convo cation of the Electoral colleges to modify the Mi nistry ; and in any case he regards it an absolute ne cessity to recall M. de Peyronnet to power. " His presence in council," he added, " would raise some objections, which are to me personal; for an en- I gegement which I cannot break binds me in some degree to his political destiny. It is painful to me to avow, that even in this case I should still have a very great difficulty in resolving on the sacrifice required of me. As to the rest I am ready tee set out for Paris as seam as 1 r eceive ordera. It is only there that I can judge wise ttaer my advice and concurrence can be useful to the King's service." This letter, it appears, was imutedietely laid before Charles X., and the refusal which it expressed tear painfully interpreted by this Monarch, for a letter from his Majesty to M. de Polignac, also beimd at the Tuileries, and slated St. Cloud, May It, said—" I send you, my ' dear Jules, the long letter of 11. de Chantelauze— that, of my son says everything" ( th at Pritute bad arrived from Grenoble, where it would seem be had been drawn, on his return from the provincee, in order to have an in. terriew with, M. de Chanteleuze), " etreept the last word, which is, that be is afraid of losing n place at since agree able and not liable to removal, to take one unfortuoately too liable to removal.

M. de Monthel, after having been successively Minister of Public Instruction and of the Interior, passed to that of Finance, and thus the Cabinet was modified. A shocking circum stance in this modification that it was not considered in Council, and was executed without the concurrence of the Ministers who were retained in office. This was de dared by M. de Renville on his examination. There is, besides, written evidence of it in the letter already quoted from the Prince de Polignac to M. de Chantelauze:—" I have no necessity of telling you that the greatest secrecy must he preserved as to the contents of this letter, which are only known to the two august personages which are named in it." Thus it was a determination from without the Cabinet—it was an act without the knowledge of some of its members, and only to be known to them through the Mon ite r. (TO BE CONTINUED.) PUBLIC FUNERAL OF MR. HUSKISSON. (From the Times.) LIVIMPOOL, FILIDAY, BKPT. 24. The funeral of Mr. Huskisson has just taken place, and with such marks of public respect, regard, and sorrow, as must soothe the grief of his surviving friends, and animate the exertions of future statesmen. Though the day came in with hail, and wet, and gloom, and storm, and every other disagreeable incident of bad weather, there was scarcely a single person of opulence, talent, and respecta bility in Liverpool, who was deterred by it from attending the melancholy pageant, of which I have been anxiously watching the progress and termination. Had I not seen, I certainly could not have credited the deep feeling of regret which prevails amongst all classes in this place fur the loss of their late able and active representative. The people seem to feel it as if they bad lost a friend and a brother; and though much of their attachment may be fairly attri buted to their conviction of the private virtues of the man, it is impossible to deny that much is also owing to their admiration of the industry, sagacity, and wisdom of the Minister. Perhaps, also, the lamentable and unexpected accident which deprived him of life in the midst of a scene of general mirth and festivity, and upon an wrcasion so peculiarly interesting to the town of Liverpool, has con tributed in some degree to increase the general sympathy created by his lows. But be that as it may, never did I see at any of the public funerals which I have attended of late years, such sincere sorrow, and such unaffected regret, as I have witnessed this, morning on the countenances of thousands during the celebration of the funeral obsequies of Mr. Iluakisson. The bells of the different churches, which began to toll at en early hour this morning, and which continued to toll at intervals during the day, reminded the inhabitants of Liverpool, in very audible tones, of the melancholy duty which they had undertaken to perform that day. I was in the streets soon after eight o'clock; but though they were then much crowded, all the shops were closed, and all the private' houses had their blinds down. The vessels in the docks and in the river had their flags half-mast high, but their crews had mostly deserted them to evince their sympathy with the melancholy feelings of their brother townsmen. On the line of streets through which the pro cession was to pass, strong bodies of special constables were patrolling, in order to prevent any interruption to its pro gress, after it had once started. But the excellent temper of the people, and the provident precautions of the com mittee in railing off the centre part of the street for the purposes of the procesrion, rendered their duty almost a sinecure. There was no fighting or struggling for places, nor any thing but the utmost decorum of language and behaviour in the immense multitude which lined the way from the Town-hall to the cemetery. It was perfectly well known to be one of the arrange menu of the committee, that the procession should start from the Town-hall as soon after ten o'clock as it could be conveniently marshalled into form. For the purpose of ensuring regularity, the committee agreed to assemble at the Town-hall at sight o'clock this morning ; and exactly at that hour, two mutes, on horseback, took their station in front of its doors, and six mutes on foot were placed in in the vestibule, and on different part of the great stair case. At nine o'clock the doors were thrown Open for the reception of such gentlemen as had previously an nounced to the committee their intention of being present ut Mr. Huskisson'e funeral. The punctuality of their at tendance was most praiseworthy. On reaching the vesti bule, the first object which attracted their attention must have been the coffin in which the mortal remains of Mr. Hualtision were enclosed, attended by mutes and numerous truncheon-bearere. It stood upon trestles, on the left side of the room, and was covered with a pall of black velvet, edged with satin. Upon the pall the arms and crest of `the deceased were emblazoned in all the empty and un availing pride of heraldic ornament. After passing the coffin, the different groups of gentlemen were ushered, as they arrived, into the splendid suite of apartments which render the Town-hall of Liverpool so famous, and by ten o'clock the whole of them load made their appearance. At that hour Mr. Wilson, the undertaker employed by the committee to superintend and conduct the funeral, began to carry into effect the preliminary arrangements for its proceeding to the grave. Wishing to see the state of the streets through which it was designed to pass, I walked along them to the cemetery. In spite of the driz zling rain which had been falling for some time, they were crowded along the whole line. The children of the dif ferent charity schools were assembled in the yard of St. Peter's Church ; and upon its belfry and steeple, and in its windows. numbers of children of a larger growth were also stationed. The limp-posts were also tenanted by a set of raoed urchins, urged to the feat by curiosity rather than respect for Mr. Iluskisson. The trees before the Ly ceum and in St. Mark's churchyard had their strength well tried by the nowhere who in every direction were clinging to their brandies. The ascent up Duke-street to the cemetery was made through One dense mass of men, • women, and children ; and it would have been impos- Ode to have travelled along it otherwise than by walking through the space railed off from the street for the pro cession. Oa reaching the cemetery, I found the whole outer area surrounded by an expecting multitude. Between Hope. street and Rodney-street, and also in Hope-street itself, there are several lofty houses not quite finished. The roofs and windows of these mansions were all occupied. Plc cards had been very generally circulated throughout the town, stating that the rails which surround the cemetery were not strong enough to support the pressure of a crowd, and requesting the people, as they wished to avoid accident, not to stand upon the stone wall, on the top of which the rails are fixed. The caution was nut unattended to--e fact which speaks volumes as to the tractable spirit and chastened feeling of the crowd. Some idea of it. numbers may be obtained from a knowledge of the fact, that thecircuit of the rails amounts to nearly 1,000 yards. The grass plat or lawn at the bottom of the cemetery was at this time nearly empty, There were only a few work men in it, and these were near the vault. I had the cu riosity to approach and examine it. It is twelve feet deep, and the six nearest the bottom are cased all round with iron. A heavy lid of the same material was reclining against one of the walls of the cemetery, and was to be placed over the body as soon as the funeral cere mony was fiuished. After I had gratified my curiosity, I looked up at the scene around and above me, and nothing could be snore imposing and magnificent than the coup trail then before me. I was at the bottom of, a doll, about sixty feet below the ordinary level of the streets of Liverpool. On the east I saw before me a solid mass of masonry, with four different tiers of galleries diverging from a centre nearly opposite me, and running one above the other to the two extremities of the cemetery on that aide. Each of these tiers was filled with respectable people habited in deep mourning. Above them were the people outside the railing ; and above them ag ain were ouses and scaffoldings covered with spectators. Turning to the eolith, I beheld a double gallery filled in a assailer manner. On the west, the rime was still more petit rogue, as the bank rises gradually till it comes to a double tier of terraces, and is then surmounted by the beautiful cluster of trees which crown St. James's-walk. Every at:email& point in this direction was occupied by ladies and gentlemen of the Ant families in Liverpool. The north aide was at this time unoccupied, and in that direction I could only catch a glimpse of the multitude peeping through the rails. To prevent the decorum of the cere mony from being interrupted by individuals pluming and repotting to and from different sets of galleries, hoards Were scented at various places to stop the wand communi cation, between them, The whole mites of people in the cemetery was therefor. nearly immovable. Their num ber* must have been nearer eo,Poo than 15,000 per sons. It is impossible for me to convoy to you any ade quate notion of the effect of the spectacle thus exhibited to my eyes, in a spot where art and nature have cum- Wood together to produce one of the most picturesque and imposing acmes that the imaginetion of man can possibly conceive. At a quarter pitst Mn o'clock the firing of a signal gun, which was stationed opposite the new Custom-house, Pee us notice in the cemetery that the procession bud begun to move from the Town-hail. I em taformed that V) minutest elapsed from the time when the mutes started, to the time when the last persons in the procession left the Town hell. The dirtettee which the procession Otis versed is about 2,000 yards, and its own length was nearly half a mile. The following was the order of march :—. Two Mutes on horseback. About Twelve Hundred Gentlemen of the Town in deep mourning, arranged six and six. The Committee, in hatbands and scarves, arranged four and four. The Clergy, in full canonicals, hatbands and seams, arranged four and four. Two Mutes on foot. Fifteen Private Carriages, containing the Pallbearers, the officiating Clergymen, the Medical Attendant, Mr. Green, M.P., and 1!r. Bootle Wilbraham, who attended without having any official place assigned to them, the arrange. mcnts having been previously com pleted. The names of the officiating Noblemen and Gentlemen are as follows : (The Pall-Bearers.) The Mayor of Liverpool. Lord Stanley. Earl Gower. Lord Sandon. Mr. Stanley, M.P. Mr. Patten, M.P. Sir Stratford Canning, Sir John Tobin. Mr. Doherty, M.P. Mr. Denison. Mr. Lawrence. Mr. Gladstone. (The Officiating Clergymen.) Rev. Jonathan Brooks. Rev. ) Thos. Blackburn, (Medical Attendant)—Dr. Braudreth. Lid of Feathers. . _ . . Attendants and/The Hearse, - drawnby six I Attendants and Truncheon black horses, with Truncheon Bearers plume, Ba. Bearers. First Mourn ing Coach, Drawn by four black horses, attendants, &c., containing General fluskisson and Capt. Huskisson, the two brothers of the deceased. Second Mourning Coach, Drawn by four black horses, attendants, &c. containing Lord Colville and Lord Granville. Third Mourning Coach, Drawn by four black horses, attendants, &c, containing Mr. Littleton, M.P. and Mr. Milne, one of the Executors under Mr. liuskisson's will. Fourth Mourning Coach, Drawn by four black horses, attendants, &c. containing the Rev, W, Cockburn, the other Executor under Mr. ituskisson's will, and Mr. Wainewright, the private Liverpool Secretary. The Mayor's State Carriage with the blinds closed, drawn by a pair of grays. About four hundred Gentlemen of the town, in mourning, arranged six and six. Constables, Attendants, &c. The head of the procession reached the cemetery at a quarter before twelve o'clock, and at that moment the view from the gateway down Duke-street was most strik ing, In the centre of the street, but not occupying its entire width, a long dark column of men, plumes, horses, and carriages, was seen advancing slowly through an immense crowd ranged in the most perfect order, and observing the deepest silence on each side of it. The turret of St. James's church, the wall skirting its yard, the windows and roofs of all the houses, were almost groaning under the weight of the spectators seated upon them. As the hearse advanced, all this vast crowd un covered, and the dark appearance of the moving proces. sion, and the mottled appearance of the bare-headed and immoveable multitude, which was gazing intently upon it, formed a very marked contrast to each other. A small piece of cannon, which had been previously ea, tioned on St. James's Mount, was fired as a signal to the town as soon as the procession began to enter the cemetery. The mutes on horseback took their position one at each side of the entrance. The gentlemen of the town, instead of proceeding into the chapel, filed off to the right, breaking their lines of six into lines of three deep, and descended without delay into the cemetery. Part of their path ran through an arched passage or tunnel cut through the solid rock ; and to a person standing on the neighboxr ing heights there was something very romantic and pic turesque in the manner in which they alternately appeared and disappeared from view. They then proceeded to range themselves on the serpentine walks which skirt the centre grass-plot, where the vault was dug for Mr. Hue kisson's remains. At a distance they appeared to have grouped themselves in the shape of a diamond, a vacant «pace being left at the angle nearest the spectator for the bearers of the coffin to carry it to the grave. Whilst this arrangement was taking place in the cemetery, the Com miuee and the clergy were employed in forming along the road between the entrance of the cemetery and the door of the chapel. The different pall-bearers then ranged them selves in order to receive the coffin and to take the pall, and as soon as they had done this, and the mourners had taken their place in the rear, the Rev. J. Brookes, who had previously met the coffin, began to read the funeral serv►ce, awl to move into the chapel. As the pall-bearers and mourners passed them, the clergy and Committee filed into the procession, and thus the funeral party entered the chapel. Immediately afterwards the gates of the cemetery were closed, and the gentlemen who had followed the hearse filed off to the gate at the top of Hope-street, where accommodation had been previously prepared for them. The chapel was arranged with the most simple and beautiful elegance for this melancholy occasion. There is on each side of it a single row of pews. These were bung with black cloth, both on the inside and on the out. So, too, was the reading-desk. It was likewise ornamented with Mr. Huskisson's escutcheon, splendidly emblazoned. The coffin having been placed on trestles under the read ing -desk, the mourners took-. their seats in the different pews previously assigned to them The funeral service then proceeded. When the clergyman came to that few tion of it which is usually read by the side of the grave, the parties left the chapel in nearly the same order in which they entered it. On quitting the chapel, which is only visible from a small part of the cemetery, you face the dell in which it is situate, and look down ripen it front a pre cipitous and isolated projection of rocks several yards high. The cortege, having ranged itself on the brink of this rock, became an object of intense interest to such spectators as could command a view of it. After the pauae of a few moments, it was again put in motion, and winded slowly down the serpentine tunnel through which the gentlemen of the town had previously wound in solemn march their long array. At the same moment the gentlemen who had followed the hearse obtained admission into the north side of the cemetery, and thus all its four sides were crowned with a living mass of anxious spectators. As the body was proceeding from the chapel to the grave, the weather, which had been moat unfavourable during the whole of the morning, suddenly changed, and a bright gleam of sunshine flung its radiance over the moving train. In a few minutes it reached the vault.-- As the bearers left the walks and entered upon the turf of the grass-plots, the gentlemen extended thick line and filled up the space in the walks which they had previously left vacant. At that moment the head of every mart in the irn:nense assemblage collected in and about the come. tery was uncovered, as if by general consent. There was a moral sublimity in the spectacle, which all who were present felt, but which I am afraid is not communicable to those who were absent. I have seen more than one public funeral, and I know something of the gorgeous pageantry so lavishly disp , ayed in the burials of our Monarchs ; but though I saw the ashes of Grattan and Canning deposited in one of the most august of Christian temples amid the vain regrets of men the most distinguished for rank, talent, and genius, and though the interment of Royalty takes hold upon the imagination from its necessary connection with the most sumptuous display of human pomp and great ness, I never witnessed any spectacle so impressive as the appearance of this vast multitude, standing erect under the open canopy of Heaven, and joining in one spontaneous tribute of respect to the memory of their late representa tive. All eyes were then turned upon the vault, and Mr. Brookes proceeded to the conclusion of the service for the dead amid the dev attention of his hearers, and the un controllable emotion of some of the mourners. lam in formed that General Iluskisson was deeply affected during the funeral ceremony, anti was not always able to refrain from tears. At a quarter past one o'clock the melancholy ceremony was brought to a close, anti another signal gun was fired to cemmuuicate the tidings to the peopl e i n t h e town. The mourners th en r e tur ne d to th e i r carr i ages, but the gentlemen who had walked i n th e p r o cess i on did not accompany them, but left the cemetery in detach e d groups as business or inclination prompted. The vault was then hoarded over; and as the spectators were not allowed to have access to it, the cemetery was soon emptied of the visitors which it had contained. In the course of the af ternoon the railings, which had been placed in the streets leading from the Town hall to the cemetery, were taken down, the flags on the public buildings were hoisted as usual, and the external appearance of public calamity were universally removed. I have not heard of the occurrence of a single accident during the day. This ia the beet of all practical proofs of the excellence of the regulations adopted by the COltituittet of management. It is said that 00,000 persons beheld the funeral in one place or another, but I am inclined to think that this calculation is exaggerated. The subscrip tion for the monument advances' rapidly. It is now neatly 2,000/. SATURDAY 3101041NQ. The committee of management have just p►rblished an advertisement, declaring that they cannot give up the functions delegated to them by their brother townsmen without expressing their warmest satisfaction at the gene. rid sympathy expressed, and the decent and orderly con duct observed, by all classes durfog the melancholy cere monial of yesterday. The inhabitants of Liverpool have certainly deserved this tribute of applause. We have heard that his MAJESTY has pre un Mince !Aurora) to relinquish 10,000/, a year of his present income. We trust this may really wove to be the Case, for if eeonomy is to he enforced by cutting down the balariex of public individuals, that of his Royal High ness should be among the very firm to be curtailed, for more MOODS than one,— Winator Express. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Gazette tie France dated Friday.) PARIS, SEPT. 23.—The Journal Le Beige, which has been received to-day, contains the following article " Bitussims, Saar. 22.—Yesterdly the whole morn ing passed over with the greatest tranquillity ; suddenly, about half-past one o'clock, the drums beat to arms, the tocsin was sounded, a numerous population hastened to arms, and went out of the gates of Luken, Louvain, and Namur. It was announced that troops were marching against Brussels. The companies of Liege rushed forward the first to meet them ; meantime numerous barricades were erected every where within the city; men, women, and children—every body worked at them with admirable ardour, and many hundred persons marched after the or ganized companies to take the place of those who might receive a mortal wound. " They soon met with the troops upon an eminence towards Ever, drawn up in order of battle ; two corps of infantry, one drawn up in a square, the other in columns, were separated, anti flanked by three corps of cavalry, composed of lancers and dragoons; several pieces of can non were placed in batteries ; a brisk action commenced along the whole line : the citizens placed as tirailleurs o n courageously irLl marchers insensibly advanced gained calmost eground forward : p, and uponthetroo to Dieghem, when the approach of night obliged them to return towards the city. "We have net time to-day to give an account of all the acts of courage and patriotism which have come to our knowledge. `VV e shall return to the subject. " The city during the whole evening presented a most animated scene. The barricades became mere numerous. The streets were unpaved ; the women carried the stones into the garrets. At midnight a fresh alarm summoned every body to arms ; the tocsin was sounded in a great many parishes ; a brisk fire of musketry was heard in the direction of the Flanders, Schaerbeck, and Namur gates. The cannonade was frequently mixed with it. We have not been able to collect all the particulars of this affair With sufficient correctness to give an account of it to-day. The guard at the Lacken gate seized yesterday afternoon several despatches upon a person who was in the mail ' coach. It seem that they were of the greatest importance, to judge by one of them which was opened." " PARIS, Sxev. 23.—We have a letter from the camp before Algiers, which states that on the 6th instant the tri-coloured standards were delivered to the troops of the first division. General Berthezene on delivering them made the following speech : " Soldiers of the Army of Africa,—The natural colours have been restored to the army. Once more the tri coloured flag will shine at the head of our phalanxes. You have not forgotten it, and the world still remembers that it led them in the fields of Jetnappe, Fleurus, Rivoli, Ar cola, Marengo, Jena, Wagram, and a thousand other com bats equally famous, which render the military annals of our age almost fabulous. For fifteen years this standard was always victorious; for fifteen years it was for France the emblem of power and of glory ; for fifteen years it ren dered our country the queen of the world. With it our splendour disappeared, with it our power and our glory were eclipsed, and France itself seemed to be effaced from the list of nations. With this standard France rises again strong anti great, and we shall be happy enough to see her resume that rank among nations which her riches, the bravery of her citizens, and their patriotism, assign her. It imposes new duties upon us, and we shall know how to fulfil them. I swear fidelity, &c." It is said that M. de Barante will succeed M. de la Tour du-Pin as Ambassador at Turin, and Marshal Monier the Duke de Mortetnart at St. Petersburgh. (From the Journal des Debate of Saturday.) PARIS, SEPT. 25.—This day and yesterday a great number of petitions were signed at the Exchange, by the leading merchants, who feel alarm at the existence of illegal clubs, to which they principally impute the dete rioration of public credit and the sufferings of industry. Similar petitions are now lying for signatures at the prin cipal notaries of Paris ; and this evening the most in fluential citizens will be engaged in carrying them from street to street for the same purpose. Thus, will public wisdom, without the concurrence of the authorities, put an end to a disorder which the Government has the inten tion of repressing by the power of the laws. A Journal has announced, that the Prince Royal de manded liberty to assist in the meetings of the Friends of the People. The news is totally without foundation. Nothing is known at this hour (midnight) of the corn. position of the new Ministry ; the question is probably at this moment in discussion. It appears certain at least that a very important modification in the Cabinet will be announced in the Moniteur of to-morrow. We mentioned yesterday in what sense this modification will take place. Many names have been already mentioned as coming in and going out. The principal persons mentioned as likely to compose the new Cabinet are Messrs. Lafitte, Odillon Barrot, General ',marque, and M. I3ignon. It is like wise believed that the change of Ministry will accelerate the dissolution of the Chamber.—Ls National. Rumours of a change in the Ministry are this evening confirmed. The Ministers of the Privy Council who have deliberative voices, do not dissemble that their power, without responsibility, was an anomaly in a constitu tioual Government. Some of them, among the rest Mon sieur Dupin, the elder, have, we are assured, sent in their resignation. M. Lafttte consents, after much hesitation, to accept the Portfolio of Finance ; General Sebastiani will replace 111. Mole, for Foreign Affairs; M. Odillon Barrot will succeed M. Guisot. Some say M. Bignon will be the Minister of Marine ; others name Admiral Duperre. There is an uncertainty about the Ministry of Public Instruction, which ought perhaps to be one of simple di rection. AIM. Dupont (de l'Eure) for Justice, and Gerard for the War department, will remain. With respect to the Chamber, some speak of its dissolution ; others, of some additional articles to the provisional electoral law, which will lower the rate of eligibility ; or at least extend to all who are eligible, whatever their age, the abrogation of the annual possession."—Le Constitulionnel. The critical state of the Ministry during the last two days has kept the public mind in continued alarm. It was known that it threatened a division of men equally able, firm, and influential, possessing in short every quality required by the present situation of the country. It was con jectured to have arisen from the differences of opinion as to certain popular societies, which have astonished Paris, alarmed the departments, and threatened to degrade the country. We have, however, the satisfaction of being able to declare that all is terminated. Wise and good citizens can never fail to come to a good understanding on questions of a grave nature. Tho cabinet remains entire. —Journal des Debafa. _ The 31;sitcur of this morning contains a Royal Ordi nance, appointing mayors to several departmental towns. Many of the French Papers of this morning, in com mon with ourselves, notice the rumour of an early change in the Ministry, and some of them intimate that the Ordi nances effecting the change would appear in the Moniteur of this day. The official Journal, however, has no such documents, and is silent upon the reports afloat on the subject. The following extracts from these papers will show the opinions entertained upon the reported change:— For two days past a law has been under discussion in the Council relative to clubs and popular societies ; a laW which was to authorise the existence of those associations to the number of 200 members in each society, but which would only he ►n force a year hence, until which time such associations would be suspended. This law, which is said to have originated with the Duke de Broglie, occasioned some discussion among the Ministers. In the Council held in the forenoon of the 23d instant, the Duke was the only Minister who supported it. In the evening another Council was held, when, after a short discussion, the in compatibility of the Council, as at present formed, was declare, Temp,. _ . The report of nn important change in the Ministry ob tains general credit. As tide modification has become al together necessary, and as, by a continuance of the pre sent Ministry, and the policy it has puraued for nearly two months, the dignity of France might one day or other b e compromised abroad, and harmony at home be destroyed, w e willingly give ear to the measure, which will in time repair the faults hitherto committed, and in the end in sure us an chic and durable Government. The change in question will be milfiletteuipowt heispeitonciiipelesAfoifnisAtel.rDotftpoolliat 1;e i i nn ' ti ll e u e r a e , ' would be the pivot upon which the negotiations would turn, and would become the influential Member of the regenerated Cabinet. We should then have an effec tive Government, a Ministry truly patriotic and national natural consequence enough of such a revolution as we have had.—.Le Globe. A change of Ministers was much spoken of yesterday. It was raid that the functions of the four Ministers nut Secretaries of State were suppressed. The announce ment of the new Cabinet is expected to appear in the 111Oniteur of to-day. We think that the Moniteur win announce nothing new, and that the public have enter tained with too touch eagerness a hope which held out something flattering. The Ministers, whom this com bination was to remove, have not determined upon with drawing, but would wish, in continuing in office, to re tain the other tart ; it is, however, doubtful, whether the latter would consent to this arrangement.—Journal 444 Commerce. .What is called the moderate part of the present Admi nistration is retiting before the popular societies which triumphed on the Place de Greve, after having received military honours on their way. Thus is broken the frail alliance formed by M ‘ Guisot with the centres of the I Chamber, constituted into a majority; for it is already ac knowledged that this change of Ministry must lead to the dissolution of the Chamber. As to the consequences of such a dissolution, they are involved in the future, which becomes daily more gloomy. A man, however, must be ignorant of history, who can be in the least surprised at this movement, which carries men and affairs towards the revolution. Liberals, who were thought violent three months ago, are now considered weak men, without any opinion. The patriots of to-day will soon be signalized as moderates.— Quotidienne.

A message from the First Chamber, stating that it had assembled and taken into consideration the draught of an address in answer to the King's Speech on the opening of the present extraordinary sitting. The Address is as follows :--. " Sire,—Summoned by your Majesty to an extraordi nary meeting, the members of the States-General have hastened to repair thither. They feel themselves bound to express to your Majesty the deep sorrow with which they concur in regretting the events which have given oc casion to this convocation. " The commotion which has taken place at Brussels and other places in the midst of peace and the highest prosperity, the theatres of conflagration and plundering which have marked and accompanied the same, must awaken among all true Netherlanders an equally deep feel ing of pain and responsibility. " Penetrated by these feelings, and without now seek ing to trace out the origin and object of the event, con vinced of your Majesty's anxious desire to consolidate the interests of all your subjects, and to secure their happi ness, the States-General will calmly and earnestly co-ope rate in the measures which your Majesty may be pleased to propose, and which are necessary for the welfare of the country. " If they, after a mature deliberation, shall be of opinion, that by a revisal of the fundamental law, or even by a separation of territories, which are united by treaties and by the constitution, the welfare of the country might be promoted, they will not refuse to make such modifica tions as are consistent with following the constitutional path, which is the only course morally possible for them and your Majesty to pursue ; and they will not hesitate to make known to your Majesty with frankness their opinion and views thereon. " They respectfully receive from your Majesty the information that the interests of the kingdom require the maintenance of the national militia ; but they at the same time express the wish that the measure. which it belongs to the prerogative of the Crown to direct may very soon, through the complete restoration of tranquillity, be found to be superfluous. " With a feeling of satisfaction they rely on the anur asset of your Majesty, that the financial supplies rendered necessary by the present fatal circumstances may be ob tained by the credits which have been opened, and that the further regulations of the same may be postponed until the approaching ordinary session. " And while they finally renew to your Majesty the solemn homage of their fidelity and attachment, and of the feelings of pure patriotism which animate them, they also, mindful of the revolutionary storms which have often tor mented Europe and the Netherlands, and of which they have been witnesses, never will forget how, after the fright. ful violence of foreign domination, the popular form and independence of the Netherlands were under your Ma jesty's sceptre established, and by courage in the field eon firmed; and how the interests of the Netherlands and the Orange dynasty are in the most intimate manner united. " Yell, Sire, we solemnly declare in the name of the people of the Netherlands, that they will consider no sacri fices too great which may tend to support your throne and dynasty, to restore order and tranquillity, to enforce the laws, to defend a fundamental law, and to repel all wanton encroachments upon it. " Perfectly prepared to co-operate with firmness to., wards these objects, they dutifully recognize your Ma jesty's solemn declaration of your readiness to listen to all just wishes, but never to yield to party spirit, or to con cur in measures which would sacrifice the interest of the nation to the violence of power. They also, Sire, enter tain a profound sense of their duty more than ever to guard against the exaltation of the passions, and against the attacks on authority which have no other result than the destruction of true liberty, which can alone find pro. tection under the authority of the laws. "To protect against such consequent*s the people whom we are summoned to represent,—in whose behalf we have to watch over the maintenance of freedom, and with whose views to endeavour to unite all interests is the object, in concurrence with the sincere wish of your Majesty, which the States-General have to attain." Heer Gayer Hoof, in the name of the Commission which 'formed part of the deputation which waited on the King, reported that the President of the First Chamber read the address, and that his Majesty replied in substance as follows: " That he perceived with much satisfaction the feelings which the States• General had on this occasion expressed; —that this concurrence was what he expected from such an assembly ;—that he anticipated great good from the perfect union which prevailed between the representatives of the people and the King ;that the assurance thereof which he now received would have the beneficial effect of strengthening the general confidence, of encouraging the well-disposed, and deterring the wicked;.—finally, that he flattered himself that he should, with our t•o-operation, soon see tranquillity and order restored, and thus be ena bled to maintain the welfare of the country, which had just been so fatally put to hazard." The President of the Second Chamber• then thanked the Committee for the completion of the task they had under taken. --- REDUCED PRICE or PORTER.-015 Friday and Saturday last, several of the publicans in the Borough, Lambeth, and indeed in various park of town, anticipating the opposition they are likely to meet with after the 10th of next month, when the Beer Act comes into operation, commenced selling their porter at 3d. per quart. Yta terday a great many of the licensed victuallers throughout the metropolis followed the example, selling the porter at Bd. per pot, and we have no doubt that to-day few publi cans within the weekly bills will charge more than that price.

EQUITY.—A gentleman, resident at Harrow, made frequent complaints to the masters of the great school there of his garden being stripped of its fruit, even before it became ripe —but to no purposes. Tired of applying to the motets for redress, he at length appealed to the boys, and sending for one to his house, he said, " Now, my good fellow, I'll make this agreement with you and your companions; let the fruit remain on the trees till it he• Conies ripe, and I promise to give you half." The Loy coolly replied, " I can say nothing to the proposition, Sir, myself, but will make it known to the rest of the boys, and inform you of their decision to-morrow." To-morrow came, and brought with it this reply..-." lh o gent l emen of Harrow cannot agree to receive so unequal a share, since Mr, is an individual, and we are many."
