Fit/iNCE. 01 41 PEERS, Auu. Tito Session opened 'at a loaner-past two. The P r ince Royal; Duke of - Orleans, entered whilst the prac44,eehal was reading; and took his customary place. The Duke de Broglie was alone on the Mi. nisterial bench. - The Marquis de Pange, the Count de St. Priest, the Marquis d'Angosse, Count POrtl, Count du Cayla, and Viscount Bonchage, took the oath. The Marquis d'Arragon, the Marquis d'Aramon, and Count de Lynch, wrote that they were pre vented from attending by sickne,s, but that they will take their places as soon as possible. The President read the following leiter from . the Martinis de Perignon : " M. the President,-llaving been unable to be present at Paris at the time of the events which have lately taken place I have taken no part in the resolutions of the Chamber of Peers. The meetings of the 7th and 10th of August are well known. My duty, as a true and loyal F'eer of France, is masked out. I adhere to the principles expressed by the Viscount de Chateauhriand, in al most the whole of his noble speech, delivered ut the sitting of the 7th of Atign.t. I withdraw myself for the reasons assigned in the sitting of the 10th by the ViscOunt Dambray. Be pleased to communicate my letter, in full, to the Chamber," &c. _ . The Duke de Firs James rose to address the Chamber in reference to the letter of the Marquis de Rouge. The Noble Peer said—" Since the sitting at which I took the oath, I have not seen, or com municated with, the Marquis de Rough, the Peer said to hare signed a letter published in the Quolidienne, which gave rise to a discussion at the last sitting. 1 think it my duty to make this declaration before 1 enter upon the matter in question, because 1 feel that I to deal with a Ministry that is somewhat • eapticius." , --(A laugh.)—The Noble Peer repeated that when he took the oath he thought he was following the wishes of him whose misfortunes he re . spewed, and for whom he would have sacrificed his life over and over again. " Contribute to the maintenance of peace and order in France, and this will be serving me." Such were his last words; but at the same time he had no reservation, and pro nounced the oath as a man of honour. The Duke then took leave to tell Ministers that it was but a pitiful opening of their career to criticise letters and gyre a forced construction to words which may have slipped from the pen. lie thought it would be better for them to occupy themselves with more im portant cares, and think. of the public good, and pre pare against the storms that were ga►hering over their heads,--(l•furmurs, and " Get on, go on.") — They should above all things endeavour to satisfy the country that the revolution► accomplished by the public would • promote the public interests and the laws, and not merely serve the interests of a party who abused the victory, by using it for the indul gence of their private resentment. lie concluded by expressing a hope that Ministers would not believe that any Peers retained opinions or sentiments dif ferent from those they had avowed. The Duke de Broglie, Minister of Public Instruc tion, replied that it was not his disposition to search too deeply into men's consciences, but that when motives for taking an oath were publicly assigned, the very act made them liable to discussion. The Ministry, however captious it might be (the epithet was rather prematurely applied), would have said nothing, anti asked nothing, respecting an oath taken by men of honour ; the explanation had been pro voked by the insertion of a letter in the journals,und the noble Peer, in addressing it to the public,gave the Chamber the right of inquiring the meaning. of Ile (the Duke) knew but one restriction in respect to the oath, which was the reciprocity of engage nsent between the person that took and the person who 'received it. " 1 have taken," he said, "an oath of fidelity to L.ouis Philippe : so long us Louis ,Philippe fulfils the oath he has himself taken to VrtMen, I will maintain mine. —(Numerous signs of assent.)-1 :took en outh'to the late Government; 1 observed It obicurely, but faithfully, till the last moment. The instant that the oaths which had been taken to France were violated, I thought myself disengaged from mine." The President then read a letter from the Mar quis de RuugeS, avowing himself to be the writer of the letter published in the Quothlicaite, but at the same time declaring that he took the oath purely and without reserve. The .Chamber declared itself satisfied with the explanations given. Count ,Simeon, reporter of the committee ap. pointed 'to take . into consideration the letter ad tfressed to the President by the Prince de Polignac rose auti adressed the Chamber to the following effect :-- • • • • . • • " Gentlemen —The-grand and terrible event Which has just changed the entire face of Prance bits given rise to the arrest of several of the Ministers of the late Government, members of the Chamber of Peers or of the chamber of, Deputies, who are protected by artielei 20 and 44 of the Charter. The former article declares that no Peer can be arrested without the authority of the Chamber; the latter, that no member of the Chamber of Deputies can be arrested or prosecuted in criminal matters during a session, unless taken M flogrante,riciiciu, until after the Chamber,has granted its permission. The penal code awards a severe punishment to an hi fraction of this constitutional decree,. unless in the case of:flora:tie ddieha or public clamour. This guarantee, which no doubt prevented the local au thorities proceeding beyond the mere arrest and de tention warranted by the public clamour which existed, is that which- the Prince de Polignac claims by his letter of the 12th instant from St. Lo, ad dressed to the President of this Chamber. The Minister of Justice has also considered It his duty to acquaint the Chamber with the arrest and deten tion of the Prince 'de Polignac at Saint Lo, and the Count de Peyrointet at Tours, in order that, in consequence of the impeachment against them, proposed by the Chamber of Deputies, the Chum her of Peers in its wisdom may take such measures as to them may seem meet. The letter of the Mi nister of Justice millet President of this Chamber, dated the 21st : instant, together with that of the Prince de Polignae, were referred to the COm mittee,es whose organ theve the honour to melee a report to you upon the subject,. The Committee conceived that there were two questions •for their consideration t-1. Whether the guarantee could be claimed ?-2. If it could, what measures the Chamber ought to adopt ? Upon the first question we do not think that the responsibility attached to the . Minister deptives Ministers w h o are ' Peers or . Depotiee of the guarantees granted to them by the Charter. Every Mini. ster who is a Peer or Deputy is liable to be called upon to take part in the deliberations of the Chem ber of which he is a member. They must not there fore be prevented by any arrests which the officers of justice may allow themselves to execute, some times through an excess of zeal, and in others with a culpable view, in order to prevent a Peer or De puty, whether 1 1inister or not, from taking a part in 641011400 n in which their influence, is feared. This guarantee is given leas to the potion than to the litallie good, to t h e freedom of debate, and the rte 'VI* , march of the Government. It is sufficient for thoyutpoette of justice, which are the power of up- P""quiing any preen accused of a crime or o ff ence, that Pears or Deputies may be arrested without any "P"" "'mint from their respective Chambers, if found infiagrantedefietu or attest s pu blic l and i !

'W e i '', •„1" o ate not either Peeriver,Deputies. This . 400 , I toT b t Aadrnittkti, the next question is, what st e ps mugs - 41 , ` * Chamber to take in this case ? If a Peer or a Deputy were arrested and detained for a slight cause, or upon weak and doubtful evidence, we should unquestionably iitsist upon the protection granted to Itim. - But the Prince de Polignac hue been arrested in consequence of a public Ourncur, which has pursued him by reason of gets ivlddi they bring upon hint a Vast responsiblity. We have been olbeially informed that the Chamber of De puties is preparing an act of impeachment against him ; anti who, under such circumstances, could entertain a thought of sheltering him from so high an accuser ? It appears that the Prince de Polignac considers himself as not guilty, since he asks permission to retire abroad. It is not by a hasty deliberation, which would amount to an escape, flint he ought to obtain the power of doing so. He has the right, as it will be his duty, to defend his innocence, he will be allowed every means, and will Ine tried by upright and impartial judges; but to set him at liberty would be the greatest, and at the same time the most incredible, denial of justice that can be conceived. Since he is under arrest, it is im- ' possible not to suffer the law to take its course, and pronounce upon his guilt or innocence. We have no need, as some Noble Peers think, to be formed into a court of justice to come to a decision upon the application of the Prince de Polignac. We shall not be executing a judicial act; we shall be merely refraining from demanding in his favour the consti tutional guarantee. We are not about to issue any warrant against him ; we shall be merely authorising a detention, which in fact has not been made by any order of ours; we allow it to be available because it has been called for by public clamour imputing to him grave and recent serious offences. We grant this authority not as judges, because there is not as yet before us any form of process, but as members of one of the two Chambers, each of which has the right of putting an end to a detention made with out its consent. I have not made any mention of sl. de Peyrotinet, because he has lost, by article 76 of the Charter, his right arising out of the character and quality of a Peer. The impeachment with which he is threatened will nevertheless be judged by this Chamber, for the twofold reason that the misdemeanours imputed to him were committed when he was a Peer, and because till impeachments brought by the Chamber of Deputies against a Mi nister must be tried before the Chamber of Peers. lint it does not belong to us to authorise his deten tion, since be is no longer a Peer. He himself tacitly acknowledges this by not making any appeal to us, as the Prince de Polignac has done, with whose arrest alone we have to occupy ourselves. With regard to him, I have the honour to propose the f‘illowing resolution : " Having considered a letter signed Prince de ['divine, written from St. Lo, dated the 17th of August, and addressed to the President of the Cham ber of Peers, by which, after announcing that he was kept in detention, he claims the benefit of article 29 of the Constitutional (Mutter, promulgated the 14th instant ; " having considered the letter of the Minister of Justice, dated the 2lst instant, by which he informs the Chamber that the Prince de Polignac had been arrested at St. Lo, and the Count tie Peyronnet at Tours, in consequence of public clamour, us authors of acts which form the matter of an impeachment at this moment proposed to the Chamber of Deputies, and by which he invites this Chamber to take such measurer as it may think fit ; this Chamber has come to the following decision : " In conformity with Art. 20 of the Constitutional Charter, the Chamber of Peers authorizes the arrest of the Prince de Polignac made at St. Lo. "As to the arrest of the Count de Peyronnet, made at Tours, after considering Art. 78 of the Charter, the (lumber declares that there are no grounds for taking it into consideration. " .The Chamber of Peers charges its President to transmit this decision to the Minister of justice." The proposition was adopted. The President announced a message from the Deputies, accompanied by two law projects, one re• lating to pensions to be granted to the wounded, and the widows and orphans of those who fell in the lute contest, and the other to the new oath. A report was then brought tip from the petition committee, after which the Chamber adjourned. CIIAAIBER OF DEPIMES, Atm. 23. The Vice-Prcs;dent (NI. Lafitte) read letters from the Deputies of Allier, Jura, and St. Brieux, de clining, in consequence of recent events, to consider the mielves us Deputies, and demanding their dis mission. The Vice President then rend the following letter: M. Vice-President of the Chamber of Deputies, •--The circumstances which induced me to accept for the moment the Presidency of the Chamber having ceased to exist, and my health preventing me discharging such important functions, I beg you to make known my resignation to the Chamber, and to convey to it the expression of my gratitude for the high mark of confidence with which it has honoured me. " CASIMIR PEltiEll." The President proposed a vote of thanks to the Hon. President, accompanied by the regret of the Climber et the ill state of his health.--Adopted. Upon the proposition of M. Donleylet, the Chamber decided that a new President should be elected to-morrow. M. Labbey de Pompieres said—ln contempt of sworn faith, and contrary to article 11 of the Charter, citizens have beets expelled from France, 411(i torn from the bosom of their families. With their eyes fixed upon their country, they have been waiting 15 years for the moment of justice. The hour of liberty has come for every Frenchman, and they are waiting still! Men 00 years old are anxiously looking forward to the moment when they shall em brace their great grandchildren. For them, days, --4rours,. perhaps,---are years, We cannot h a st e n too much in restoring them to their families. May a friendly hand at least close their eyes ! May the land which gave them birth receive their ashes; This is the only wish they entertain. I therefore submitted the proposition of a law for the repeal of article 7 of the law which was called , ll d ec ision, an act of amnesty, for it was a proscription law to which nothing but categories were wanting. Having .learned that the Government have in contemplation a law on the subject, I withdraw my motion. The Keeper of the Seals stated that a law or or.; &mince on the' subject would shortly be brought forward.-4 Applause.) The President—When the initiative belonged solely to the Crown, it was customary to send by message to the King a law voted by the Chamber; this law was then presented by the Government: to the Chamber of Peers; but now that the right of proposing laws belongs to us as well as to the Go vernment, the King should not be the mediuM tweeti us and the Chamber of Peers. The law should now he sent immediately to the Chamber of Peers, After it has been discussed by the latter Chamber, it will then be transmitted to the King, Who will give it his sunction.---Adopted. Gaetan de la RochelOticauld, in the name of the oth Bureau, proposed the admission of M. Cruze, deputy for Vienne, which had been adjourned. M. Demurcay opposed this admisSion, on the ground that M. Cruze had quitted the business he formerly pursued, and had no right to include in his qualifying taxation a licence which was now paid by lus children; lie therefore moved a further adjournment, which was agreed to. The Chamber passed to the orders of the day, for considering the law respecting the publication of the electoral lists, and of thujury ; but M. Duvergier de Hauranne remarked, that in con sequence tf the Modifications of the Charter, the most important and pressing subject was that of regulating the mode in which the Chamber should exercise its initiative. The Chamber passed to the discussion of the ar ticles. 4. variety of amendments proposed by the committee were adopted, some Wormers, changes et terms. Several new articles were adopted rela dye to the forms of conducting business in the Chamber. Oau of tilt) new articles propossd was the follow- ing No written speech cat► be delivered during the discussion of the amendments, except In the law of finances." M. MontgUyon; in ti set disbotirse; spolsb against the abuses of written speettber. M. Peton opposed the amendment, as contrary to the general interest. Every deputy had not the faculty of speaking in the tribune, who might con coct an excellent one in his study. M. de Sade said, it was time to put a stop to written speeches. "It is reported," he observed, " that large sums were expended to the Moniieur for the cost of printing them. With a torrent of Words we could not get through the business of the country, which sent deputies, riot to make fine speeches, but to attend to its interests." Several other members spoke on either side of the question ► and the amended article, when put to the vote, was rejected by a vast majority. The Chamber adjourned at six o'clock. (From the Journal des-Debuts.) By advices from Nismes, dated the 18th of Au. gust, it appears that the proeimation of his Majesty Philip I. took place on the morning of Sunday, the 15th inst., amidst the acclamations of an immense crowd, and accompanied by cries, a thousand times repeated, of " Vive le Roi !" " Vivo Look-Philip I" " Vive le Charte !" In the evening a serious quarrel ensued between the Catholics and Protes tants, arising out of this proclamation, and two per sons were killed and several wounded. The energy displayed by M. de Lnscours, the commander of the department, and the firmness of the new Prefect, re-estab!ished order. Two battalions of the 36th Ityglinent of the Line from Montpellier, and a squadron of the Chtmeurs d cheiml of the 7th, gar risoned at Tarascon, arrived on the 17th. These reinforcements, together with the troops in the town, succeeded in preserving tranquillity. The above-mentioned occurrences have given oc casion to the following proclamation and decree " THE PREFECT OF THE GARI) TO THE INHABITANTS OF THE TOWN OF NISMES. " I bad hoped, on arriving within your walls to be able to congratulate you on the wonderful con cord which had accompanied the accomplishment of our glorious revolution. I had hoped, to be able to lead on to some useful purpose those ardent but loyal feelings, and those talents, by which you are distinguished among a people so remarkable for their genius. Such is not the case. The occurrences of last evening have polluted the close of a whole week of peace and union. Cries of ho'tility and sedition have been raised and wounds inflicted. Agitation, the result of these disorders, prevails throughout the town, creating apprehension among the well-disposed, and attracting the attention of the civil power. Consequently, I think it my duty to acquaint the peaceable and well-disposed inhabitants of Nismes, that severe measures will be taken to restrain the small number of disturbers contained within the city. I give notice to the evil-disposed, that they will not escape the punishment of their crimes of yesterday by committing fresh ones to-day. I at the same time inform the friends and relatives of the victims of yesterday's CAM% that the authority which watches over them peremptorily forbids them to take the law into their own bands. Law will be ad ministered to them by the law. Proceedings have commenced ; they will be completed. The King's Government is earnestly desirous of maintaining order and peace. It will accomplish its wish. 46 Nismes, Aug. 16. " A. DE LACOSTE." DECREE OF THE MAYOR OF NISMF:S. " AUGUST 16. " With the intention of preserving tranquillity in the present state of things:— " Decree,—The cafes and cabarets are to be cleared and closed at seven o'clock in the evening. The national signs and tri-coloured cockade are placed under the protection of the magistrates. Whoever insults them shall be immediately arrested and carried before the tribunal. Every sign belong ing to the preceding Government is prohibited. Ne vertheless, the agents of the magistrates are alone empowered to pursue the wearers of it. " Every insult directed against the civil power and the armed force will lie punished with all the ri gour of the law. " After seven o'clock every stranger to the town of Nismes who shall be found in the street, public places, and promenades, will be arrested, and placed at the disposal of the magistrates, if he does not bear proper passports. "J. DE CHASTELLIEII." M. Bertin do Vcaux, Deputy for the Seine and Oise, has addressed the following letter to the Duke of Broglie, President of the Council of State : "M. le . Due,—l have repeatedly declared to some of the King's Ministers, and to yourself, that it would be impossible for me to enter the Council of State for ordinary service. I cannot accept a situ ation which would give me, in the eyes of the pub lic, the appearance of aspiring at functions which I have renounced. I therefore beg of you to present to his Majesty the homage of my gratitude and the expression of my regret. lam a deputy, and in that character I will continue to serve the King and my country. I have the honour, Sm. ‘• BEItTIN DE VEAUX." (From the National.) As soon as the loss of the crown by Charles X. was known at Rome, by official despatches tran smitted by extraordinary messengers to all the Am• bassadors of the foreign Courts, the members of Bonaparte's family, who reside in that city, in formed the French Ambasiador, that as the flight of the ancient dynasty from the territory of France annulled the odious decree by which they were ba nished from their country, and opened the gates of France to them, they intended to take advantage, without delay, of the liberty of returning. " In consequence of this notice, Cardinal Fetich, Archbishop of Lyons, and Primate of the Gauls, who had been removed from his see by a decree still more tyrannical, because it was opposed both to the civil anctecelesiastical laws, announced that he re sumed the jurisdiction, of which he never could have been stripped. With this view the Cardinal Arch bishop has declared, that, in virtue of the canons of the Church, he intends to nominate Vicars-Genertil of his own choice, whom he will invest with his own authority and power., in order that they may administer legitimately In his name and for him the diocese of Lyons. The first use which the Grand-Vicars nominated' by the Cardinal Archbishop of Lyons will make of their power will be to publish a declaration nullify!. ing all the acts of the interior and exterior Court which may be made for the future in the same diocess by the Biahop who administers that church; for that Bishop, contrary to ancient discipline, has intruded upon the guardianship of 'a cock, which Jesus Christ has not intrusted to him, and has made himself a pontiff' of a church, over which lie was not placed by the Holy Ghost. The claim of Cardinal Pesch is supported by the Pontifical Court. The Pope, at the time of the Cardinal's removal, powerfully remonstrated against the injury done to a Prince of th e church in the person of Cardinal Peach. His Holiness constantly refused to name a successor to the Aiclibishop of Lyons, as long as he would not give i s hi s res i gn's . thing which he was never inclined to do, ,Biirsilotorpderththeatptrhoevifsaioittirinfuryl m al g m h in t i n s o tr t at b io e i l t e o rt f and the Pope at last only con sente d to.confer upon a th n a o t tb s e e r e without a pastor. (From the Messager dcs Chancres, dated Aug. 25.) PAalti, AUG. 24. Official information is every moment expected of the acknowledgment of the new French Govern• went by the grent Powers of Europe. DEPUTATION FROM THE INOLIEIt SOCIETY OF THE :71LIRSOS Or rARLIAAtINTARY RICFOONt. We mentioned yesterday the reception of the English Commissioners at the Town-hall :we sub join some passages from, the Rpeecliets of Messrs. Deem and Cohbett. " Oen tlemen,—l regret that I am unable to address you in your own langoage ; however, this regret is diminished by the certainty I feel that many of you understand English. " The address which I present to the city of Paris was - uhanimclttsly agreed td, and voted by an Immense majority of the soCiety of - Radical Reform in London, at a dinner which took place on the loth instant, to celebrate the anniversary of the memo rable day when a general massacre of. men, women, and children, stained with blood the town of Man chester in 1819. lum happy to have been specially chosen to present this address, which transmits to you the sentiments of several millions of my country men, and I consider this as the most glorious day of my life. Prom one end of England to the other, people admire the courageous and noble conduct of the po pulation of Paris during the late events. Even the 1160ml:icy cannot refuse its admiration to your peat deeds, though it trembles at their 11%164 May your example serve as a warning to tyrant, and an encouragement to the oppressed in all parts of the world. " Frenchmen ! England wishes the liberty which you have sealed with the blood of your countrymen m 4 y last for ever, and that the friendly relations be• tweet, our tNO nations may never be impaired."— Sir Thomas Beevor. " Gentlemen,—As one of the members of the English society ►vhich voted the address that Sir Thomas Beevor and myself are commissioned to present to you, it would be depriving myself of the greatest satisfaction that I have experienced in my life, if I denied myself the honour of pronouncing a few words on this occasion. " Gentlemen, the feeble testimonies we offer you of our lively admiration, and the subscription for the wounded, the widows, and the orphans, of the victims of your great work, in which all England takes part, will not be the only proofs of our sym pathy. At this moment there is every thing to en. sure a long and durable peace; but if any hostile power should disturb you, and attempt to trouble the great triumph which you have just obtained, you would see Englind sweep away all the obstacles which arc still met with on its own soil, to hasten and rally with you under the tri.coleured fl g. Cobbett. The Prefect received these deputies with great respect, and invited them to dinner. ALGIERS, AUG, 5. The service of the hospitals is very ill attended to; and our sick often have not even broth. Some times brought to Algiers to be conveyed to the hos pital, they remain for hours at the gate of the city exposed to a burning sun. On the 23d five men died on the road, and on the 25th three died at the gate of the city where they were left. The Inten dant pretends that there is no room—this is not cor rect ; and if there is not room, is there not the Ca sanba, which should be assigned to our unfortunate soldiers, by whom the conquest was effected, rather than certain boudoirs and saloons for pelits-maitres of the staff, who wish to transplant to Africa their French coquetry ? It could contain 4,000 or 5,000 sick. General Berthezene, to whom many complaints have been made respecting the delays in the supply of provisions, has threatened to bring the guilty authors of this negligence before a court-martial. On the 27th fresh complaints being made to him, he wrote to the Chief of the Stair, but the letter has produced hole effect, and things go on as before. A Colonel has been heard to say, that unless the supply of provisions were more regular, he would need a company to the port of Algiers to stop any thing going out. Thanks to the robberies of the great men of the army, the immense treasures of the beyare estimated at only 49,000,000. It is said, however, that there were 140,000,000 in the Camra. Probably very strict orders will be sent to the Custom•houses in France to examine all packages coming to this country, whatever direction may be on them. All articles stopped which may be the fruit of pillage, should, doubtless, be the property of the State. In no campaign have so many men vb ith large epaulettes been seen engaged in pillage, accordingly very few of them were on the field of battle. Every body does justice to those who were in the fire while the others were plundering. Twenty Turks of distinction are on board the Alcibiades brig, supposed to be hostages for the trim. quillity of the country. According to various ae counts, the rebellious Arabs were to attack our troops on the 4th • however, the day p asse d over , an d t h ere is no sign o f any agitation. BAY OF ALGIERS, AUG. 7. A transport will take to Toulon a brass cannon, to the mouth of which the French Consul was bound during the bombirdment of Algiers by Duquesne, on which account it has ever been called the Con sular cannon. Workmen are still employed in forming two or three squares and mile streets, in which artillery may be used. These works will greatly tend to the security of the conquest, but only those who know Algiers, and the manner in which the streets and houses are disposed, can form an idea of what must be demolished for this purpose. No further signs of insurrection have been mani fested, either within or without the city. It appears that the execution last week had a good effect. (From Galignanes Messever.) We learn that several chests of muskets and po. niards, destined by the partisans of Charles X. for Paris, been seized at Lyons. Monday being a day on which workmen seldom devote themselves to their occupation, several parties were seen yesterday parading Paris. They pre served the strictest order, and did no mischief. They went to several manufactories, where some of the leaders entered to demand the expulsion of the foreign workmen, to the employment of whom they attributed their want of work. One of these parties consisted of about fifty journeymen saddlers. They carried with them a printed address to the master saddlers, in which they stated, in very moderate terms, their comphints against foreign workmen. It appears that these men, with the exception of a few ringleaders,are averse to acts of violence, being per suaded of he justice of their cause. No threats or seditious cries were uttered. This morning about 500 masons went in a,body, headed by a tri-coloured flag, to the Palais Royal, desiring to see the King, to complain that they had no employment. One of his Majesty's Aides-de-Camp having informed them that they could not be admitted, as the King was engaged with his Council, they delivered to him a petition for presentation, and retired quietly. The Augsburg Gazette contains the following, dated Leghorn, Aug. 11 :—" A ship of the line, built here for the Puha of Egypt, sailed yesterday for Alexandria. Several small vessels have arrived at Leghorn from Corsica under the tri-coloured flag, which they struck on entering the port. They bring intelligence that some slight disturbances had taken place in Corsica, where several of the public functionaries had been dismissedond others had led." The following despatch from Admiral Duperre, dated on board the Provence, Aug. 17, has been transmitted to the Government from Toulon by te iegrapin,,,—'* Conformably to the ordinance of. the Lieutenant-General of the Kingdom, the tri-coloured flag has been hoisted on board all the , ships Of war. and transports under my command, and at the same time on the forts and batteries of Algiers." (Front the Conatitutioneet.) We expect every moment to receive official news of the recognition of the new French Govettunent by all the great Powers of Europe. The Moniteur informs us that ttisagreeable scenes have for a moment troubled th e t own of Alby ; two speak of vecret attempts to excite agitation. Nisrnes and La Vend6e are t h e p l aces where this jwork isournals most active. Some disquietude is manifested at Blois. It is certain that the vanquished faction is strangely abusing thegenerosity of the conquerors; and the regrets it utters in the Tribune, and in its papers, are, on several points of France, changed into menaces, It must be told, for it is a duty, that complaints are made respecting the appoint ments of the Administration, and its inconceivable, intolerance, We are about .to reprint the article in the Mani leer about the troubles at Alby, when we received a letter from that town which gives an account of the matter very different from what is stated in the of journal. These troubles lasted only for a very short while, and had nothing to do with politic , . `Whey *ere excited by reports among the workmen against a patfictilar establishment, and had no to. pleasant result. THE FRENCH REAtatYriON. (FROM A CORRESTONDF.NT.) PARIS, AUG. 24, 1830 Whilst Europe is ringing with the glories of the Pori- Alan victory, anti the enlightened of all lands anti creeds are exulting in the downfall of despotism, Paris alone seems destined to suffer a drawback from the general rejoicing, by the encreasing difficulties and embarrasmenta with which the operations of the new Government are lianatiered and besieged by the disaffected and discontented. Unfortunately the pre•ittiliftg insufficiency of employment. and consequent distress, of 50,009 of the ltreeer &tiers of workmen, afford but too ample materials for the eleniente of discord and sedition to operate upon. The enemlea of the present order of things are of two distinct classes : first,—those who, whether by place or other motives, were attached to the late Government—the tribe of Jesuits, the disbanded gene d'armcs (now lurking in large num bers about the environs), and the multitude of myrmidons whom the ultras are able to pur. chase :--these, foreseeing the prohable stability of a constitutional monarchy, to the exclusion of them• selves fur ever; and thus naturally hating the moderate course pursued in the pokey of the Government, are labouring might and main to produce an overturn of the monarchy, induce an anarchy, and thus by repelling the circle of 89 to 1815, bring hack France to absolutism and themselves. The second class are those of the republican party, who, some front a long attachment of the doctrines of that school, and others who have embraced them now from disappointment in the distribution of the loaves and fishes, are equally fomenting disaffection among the people. The artifices and perseverance employed by the former party, under the false colours they adopt, are moat insidi ous and most unwearying ; they mix among the unem ployed workmen, exaggerate their distress, and blacken the prospect of relief, while everything is attributed to the Ministry and the Chambers. In the service of the real republicans are four of the most violent of the daily papers, the Patriote, the Revolution, the Journal de Paris, and the Tocsin. The walls of the metro polis are daily placarded with these incendiary publications, which are read with avidity by the penpte. As yet no act of violence has occurred, and in many in stances the feigned friends of the people have been detected and scouted by the mob themselves ; one of these cases took place the other evening, under my own eye—a fellow who had been lavishly regaling all the idlers he could lay hands on, in the cabarets, whilst haranguing a large assemblage in the Faultourg St. Antoine, was accidental y recognised by a bystander as a tlisbintled gene &armee, who had fired on the people on the 27th—a cry was raised, and the pseudo-republican orator was forthwith subjected to a ducking in the Seine, with very little respect to the senti ments of popular liberty which he had been instilling.— Last night a number of the ouvriers were assembled in the Palais Royal, immediately under the King's apartments. They form little groups, each centring round some one individual, who forma the oracle of the party, listening with deep attention to his opinions. I joined several of them ; but, though they willingly converse with a foreigner (especially an Englishman), I was unable to elicit any de termined plan or specific object which they had in view. They talked much of their distress, anti of the injustice of allowing foreign artisans to take the bread out of their mouths ; there was some little talk of breaking up =enlace, anti steam-engines seemed particularly destined to become the object of their vengeance. M iny abused the Go vernment, and said they had not risked their lives in th e battle to turn out one set of men, that another might at p into possession of the Paine luxuriotra places and pensions without a care to relieve the necessities of the people. At about nine, an immense procession of these poor fellows paraded through the streets, and passed through the whole of time Palais Royal, preceded by tri-coloured flags, torches, and a few young men with drawn swords. They sung the Marseillois and other national airs. They, how ever, molested no one, and generally retire about de/en o'clock. Ilowever, this assemblage now takes place regu larly every night, and increases in number very consider ably. They talked of a deputation to the King, which will, in all possibility, be attempted soon. The Garde Nationale turned out to the number of 40,000 on Sunday, they are for the most part a fine body of men ; 100,000 are the number it is intended to enrol. The worst of this, however, is, that by extending their number to such &wide compass, many must be included in it who, having no property to protect, would be little inclined to preserve public order, in the event of time ouvriers being instigated to acts of violence, especi illy when among the latter are contained a vast num ber of the relatives and friends of the Garde Nationale themselves. As far as influence goer, I admit that they may do great service ; but, beyond this, I question their inclination to exert iemselves. However probable may be the danger of fresh commotion and trouble arising from the causes I have stated, molting can ultimately effect a change of Government. Among the bulk and enlightened portion of the people, the day of republican visions has gone by with the ignorance and darkness which attended their introduction at the end of last century. France, that is, every sensible man in France, desires nothing more or less than security of protection to person and property, and she knows full well that security for neither one nor the other is to be found either in republics (such as France would be) or in absolutisms—the one a system of military despotism, the other a reign of the scaffold. No ! France is fur ever a constitutional monarchy. No other form (and she has tried then; both) can suit her or her people. Besides France is too well aware of the blessing of being at peace with other nations, and though the combined legions of all Europe against her could accomplish her subdual alone by the slaughter and exter mination of ever man, woman, and child, on her soil, yet she will never risk the enmity of other Powers, in order to give a name to a Government which in its fullest spirit would far from satisfy leer wants. The King is generally popular : I never witnessed ap plause more animated or lasting than that which burst from a very crowded house at the Theatre Francais the other night on the recitation of the following lines in the Tartufe:— " Nous - vivous sous; un Prince ennemi de la frausle, " Un Prince, dont lee yeux se font jour dans nos ceeurs!" These are trifles ; but the public mind is ever swayed by trifles, and thus best judged of by them. Nothing has amused the French more than the extreme sagacity and laudable positiveness with which some of the London papers detected and maintained M. de Polignac to be in various parts of England, whilst he was under arrest in France. The fate of this miserable wretch seems pretty well decided, as tar as I can gather from the best informed circles here. The laws, the justice of the country, demand the sacrifice of such a man, and the bleat' of 7,000 of the innocent victims of his unyielding tyranny calls aloud for retribution, while the outraged laws of hu manity may well require the expiation, at the cost of a life so utterly worthless, and a being so depraved. Mercy has been, to the immortal honuur of the French, most sig nally extended, and will probably be still further mani fested towards the somewhat less culpable accomplices in the crime; but when mercy degenerates into a mawkish compassion towards the guilty, and witholds infli c ti on n n . poised both by laws divine and human, she robs justice of its power awl efficacy, and confers an unmerited benefit on one abandoned and noxious individual, at the cost ut a deep injury to society at large. The letter he hos written to the Chamber is a compound of pitiful mean spiritedness, hypocrisy, and cowardice. It is the tyrant in a fright; and if he had wished to seal the indignation of France against him, he could not have done it more effectually titan by sending them a portrait so aptly drawn of himself. The request to have his clothes sent to him contitulesa the farce. As conqueror he would have tramples! oh the necks of 82 millions of his fellow euuntrytnen—as conquered, it must be nieeted to him as he would have measured. The French court the English above all other nations, and the few in Paris are treated with the most marked respect awl civility. The deputa tion of congratulation from the London Tavern arrived some days ago, and they yesterday dined with M. Dela horde, at the Hotel de Ville. Lafayette was to be there. It is a pity that this noble duty should have been executed under a name so debased ae Cobbett's. Wo trust some thing will be done in snore reputable quarters. There was a letter in a London Evening Paper some days ago, at• tempting to decry the new Ministry. One was condemned because be had been a Royalist, and the rest because they had been Liberals. This miserable jargon can only excite the ridicule of the Parisians, while the English, it is to be hoped know how to despise it. The excellent let ters of 0. P. Q. continue to give great satisfaction. The only fault of this clever writer is, that he is exceedingly prone to fall into en ugly habit of croaking every now and then. One of these fits was displayed the other day in the shape of a bugbear lie had got hold of in Algiers.
