FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Moniteur of Sunday.) PARIS, SEPT. 4.—The nominations of Ambassa. don or Ministers sent by the King to reside at fa reign Courts, which have been lately announced in the journals, are not correct. No nomination of this kind has yet taken place. CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, Sere. 5. LAVITTE, PRESIDENT. After the conclusion of some formal busbies•, The President read the following letter from the Marquis de la 'l3oesiere, so notorious on account of his proposal to issue an inquisitorial commission against the newspapers : " M. le President,•--Having fallen ill in the month of July, when I was on the point of repairing to the Chamber, I could not take a part in its first sit tings. Had I been present, I should have risen, like many of my Hen. Friends, to protest against the right which the Chamber arrogated to itself to take away and to confer the crown, as well as against its right to alter the. charter.—(Violent outcries.) — Under existing circumstances, I shall not deprive myself of my qualification as a deputy—(Outcries still more violent).—but I shall decline sitting in the Chamber—(Laughter)—where my presence would be against the oath which I have taken. To act otherwise would be to betray the confidence with which my constituents have honoured rne. I have the honour to be, " The Marquis de la BOESTERE." (Great laughter and murmuring followed the termi• nation of this letter.) The President--Does the Chamber consider this letter as a resignation ? The answer was unanimoull—" Unquestionably." The letter was then ordered to be sent to the Minister of the Interior. M. Daunant, deputed by the Committee of Peti tions, said that a great number of free inh►►bitants of colour of Point-a-Petre (Guadeloupe) complained that sundry enactments, colonial ordinances, and Ministerial letters had deprived them of the benefit of legality in spite of the law which assured to them the ordinances of Louis XIII. and Louis XIV. They desired to enjoy the same civil and political rights as the whites of our colonies. A great num ber of free men of colour of Martinique made the same claims. M. Daunaut informed the Chamber that many of the injurious distinctions of which the free men of colour complained had already been abolished by Royal ordinances, and that the existing Government was now seriously engaged in consider ing their situation. The Committee proposed that these petitions should be forwarded to the Minister of Marine and the Colonies, and placed in the bureau des renseignemens. M. Alexandre de la Borde proposed that the peti tion should also be forwarded to the Keeper of the Seals, It is time for us to occupy ourselves with an entire population which has so long groaned under the most severe yoke. The day of justice has ar rived for every body. We have long been trying for the appointment of a Committee to inquire into the state of our colonies, and this demand has al ways been refused to us. At this moment, when we are occupying ourselves with moderating aristo• cracy in all its branches, we do not occupy ourselves with moderating the most stupid of all aristocracies, ' the aristocracy of theskin.--(Shoutsof laughter.) The Minister of Marine—The petition now pre sented to the Chamber is very important. The new charter has prescribed a new form of government for the colonies. That legal Government will be pre sented to your consideration as soon as possible, but a system of legislation, which must embrace regu lotions for the judicial and for the executive branches of the Government, cannot be formed at a moment's notice without danger. All the measures which the King's Government can take basic been already taken, There were some distinctions very morti fying to the free men of colour—they have been abolished. Orders have been given that, in future, the free men of colour shall receive the title of Monsieur its all public instruments. They were condemned to see themselves undone(' apart in ell public places; they are to be admitted hereafter upon the same footing as the wishes. A Voice —The government of the Waal by the whites is in all countries a system pregnant with horrors. M. Sebastiani followed on the some side with the Minister of Marine. M. de Tracy was convinced that the happy in nuence of the glorious revolution which had just been effected would be felt in every part of the French dominions. lie called upon the Minister of Marine to revoke the monstrous ordinances re specting the free men of colour as inconsistent with the fundamental principles of the charter. M. Lana de Villeveque said, that the greatest benefit which could be• conferred on the colonies would be a review of the ordinances by which they are governed, and the formation of a complete code of legislation for their inhabitants. At the census taken In 1764, after the pence of Versailles, it was found that there were in each of the two colonies of Martinique and Guadeloupe about 3,000 or 4,000 fret' men of colour. In spite of all the regulations witieb have been made to restrain the increase of their timbers, they now amount to 18,000 or 10000. This population evidently forms the basis of each of our colonies, and the amelioration of their destiny is one of the most urgent objects that de mand our consideration, lie supported the amend. merit of M. de la horde. The amendment and the original motion were both agreed to. After some discussion, the petition was s en t to the Ministers of Marine and Justice. -- Cochrane, the late Governor of the ling lish island of Dominique, claimed payment of a debt resulting from advances made by him to the French authorities of Guadeloupe in 1801. . . The Committee proposed the sending this to the Minister of Marine and the Colonies. General Lafayette—l support the,proposal made to you by the Committee. I shall profit by this oc casion to make some brielobservations on an im. portent subject relating to French commerce.— (Marked attention,)—The recognition of the re publics of South America has been made by the Visited States. England, after somehesitation, de aided on recogisising them. Up to the present time this recognition has been delayed In France by the prejudices of two camarillas.—(Latighter.)—l know that the present Government is occupied concern. ing this recognition; I shall profit by the presence of the Minister for Foreign Affairs, to request him to inform the Chamber as fully as he is able of what the Government, intends to do. M. IVfol6, Minister for Foreign Affairs—l thank the illustrious General for giving me this opportu nity of explaining myself on this point in the pre sence of the Chamber. Government has decided this question, which I must say bad heretofore been deferred too long. The King has ordered me to write to our agents with the American Govern ments, and to those of these .Governments who are now- bete, tOitito that he is ready to recognize the "Ifitonce of these. Governments, And to treat COW.

Finding it impossible to ittiSSAter 411 theta letter*, and being desirous to eldighten estimable and ileitis tlious.men regmliug thor real situation, I feel it My duty to transmit 'to you the letter which I have just Written to one oUthese journeymen printers, tivhd has thought fit to communicate to me his objections and his grievances. I have the honour to be, &c. CHARLES DUPIN. My dear Fellow-citizen,--I return you my thank, for the proof of confidence you have conferred upon me by informing me of your grievances with regard to the new mechanical presses, which for several years past have been introduced into the printing dices of Paris. You say with truth, in your letter, that it was not self-interest which made you take up arms in the'great and glorious week of July—it was the love and honour of liberty. You all displayed in those immortal days your strict integrity. That is an eulogium which we feel to be your due, and which we have in consequence paid, in congratulating ourselves upon being the follow-countrymen of citizens so disinterested in vic tory, and so courageous in battle. in your justifiable pride you refuse the aid of sub. scription, which you consider as alms in disguise— you ask only for employment. You ask for employment as the reward of your victory ; and you think yourselves repaid for all the labour of battle by the labour of any species of em ployment which will give you the means of existence. A part of you, however, is in want of employment. There are machines of recent invention, which do as much work with live men as can be done by the or. dinary presses with I.s . pressmen. You find it in human, ungrateful, unjust that the labour of these machines should be preferred to yours. You call, therefore, for their destruction, or at least for their being given up, as the fair reward of the heroic ser vices which you have just rendered to the cause of rill Fretrchmen. You see, my dear fellow-citizen, that I do not seek to diminish either the force or the number of your arguments or your motives. Suppose, now, that these individuals who are most friendly to your wellbeing and to your liberty, a Lafayette, a Tracy, a Labbey de Pompierre, should examine your claims with that love of the people which you so much admire in them, in order to do in your behalf all that good order and the general welfare will permit them to perform. " Our brave workmen have fought for the preser vation of liberty—they have preserved it," these celebrated citizens will say, "we must then do for them all that liberty will permit. They demand em ployment, we must give them all the employment which we can without injuring the liberty of others. They demand that the proprietors of all printing machines shall give up the profits which they derive from the employment of such presses. But to effect that object, we must violate the property of others : consequently we must destroy the liberty of industry and the liberty of labour." The courage of the working classes has rendered France free—we are proud to acknowledge it. But in a free country no citizen submits to com pulsion, except under the laws. A law is then ne cessary to prohibit, without distinction, the use of the new printing-presses. Besides, the law ought to be equal for all, in order that there may not be tyranny for one class, and oppression over another. Consequently there must be a law to prohibit, not merely the new print ing -presses, but new machinery in every art and in every trade. Ten years have elapsed since these new printing machines were first introduced into France. We must then declare that the law prohibits the em ployment of the new machinery which has been in. traduced into every branch of trade and commerce in the last ten years. This declaration alone would be sufficient to ruin live-sixths of the proprietors of steam-boats, hy draulic presses, hydraulic wheels, corn-mills, oil mills, tan-pits, &c. It would also render equally useless all the now machinery employed to spin, to weave, to shear, to Wash linen, cotton, wool, silk, &c. It would also annihilate in all works of art, with- Out exception, the value of an innumerable quantity of mechanical inventions, of which the object is to diminish the manual labour, which is required for every species of improved workmanship. And now, my dear fellow•citizen, I ask of you what would become of the industrious classes in France were we to adopt a law, which should forbid the use of so much machinery ? There would re sult from it, first of all, the immediate ruin of three fourths of the proprietors of these machines; there would result from it, in the next place, the ruin of all the manufactories in which are employed work men in wood, iron, copper, casts, turning, cart making, &c., in which these numerous and im proved machines are used. But what would become of the new workmen accustomed to work these improved machines, and who, for the last 10 years, have gained their sub sistence by it ? They would be left without an occupation, and without employment. Thus, the law which it would be necessary to pass, in order to fulfil the wishes of the journey men printers, to say nothing of the injuring the strict equality of all the working classes, would sacrifice the properly of a numerous body of master manufacturers and shopkeepers; it would p u t an en d to the employm e nt o f a large number of workmen engaged upon new machines, in order to give you more constant employment. At present I ask you this question, is it justice to sacrifice one class to satisfy another ? Is it equality to t►►ke employment from one portion of the corn. rnunity to give ►t to another ? Is it liberty, accord ing to our notions of liberty, to violate a man's pro perty, and to prevent him from making use of it? Let us take courage and speak out. No, it is not jnstice, it is not eqoality, it is not liberty. I appeal for the truth of toy observations to those illustrious citizens whose names I have mentioned to you, and who inspire you justly with so much confidence. If, then, we wish to create a government in which every man shall be free to employ honestly the labours of his hands,-of his mind, and of his reason, we must leave to the simple workman the right of employing his tools, not merely according to the custom of those who used them before him, but also according to the more ingenious use which he may be able to discover of them, in their present form, or in a more perfect form, which will produce better ►work in less time. If you leave the simple workman the right of im proving his smallest tools, you must leave to the masters of shops and manufactories the right of im proving their machines, which are the real tools em ployed in their shops and manufactories. Up to this point I have confined my argument entirely to the question of liberty, justice, and equality. In my second letter I shall discuss the interests of the country in general, and of the work men in particular.—l have the honour, &c. ell Altl4:S DUNN. (From the Conslitutionnel.) ORDER OF TICE DAY TO TICE NATIONAL GUARDS OF THE KINGDOM, Szn. 1, 1830. The General Commander-in-Chief of the Na- tionat Guard of the Kingdom, called by the con& denee of the people to the head of the public force in the glorious days bf our last revolution, has thought it his duty, notwithstanding his refusal in 1796, to accept in our new circumstances the im mense command which has been conferred upon him by the confidence of a patriot King, exalted himself by the desire of his fellow-citizens to the constitu tional throne of the King of the French. But to meet the importance and multiplicity of his functions, the Commander-in-Chief must neces sarily rely, us be happily is certain that he can rely, upon the patriotism, the zeal, and he permits him self to add, the personal affection of his brethren in arms in the vast extent of our valorous and free country of France. After 40 years of memorable vicisaltudes, the old tri-cultured flag of 1789, the flag of the sove reignty of the nation, of liberty, and of public order, halt jaiit, been glatiouslyogenerously, and for ever re• 144441 Around that nag has tallied with qne spontaneous motion, and soon will be legally ranged, the whole population of France in arms. . _ The French people, profiting by the lessons of experience, by the progress of intelligence, and by the good sense of its members, adopting the glory and the benefits of our political storms, repudiating► every thing which has changed the pure nature of its first impulses, feels the more strongly the urgency of maintaining general and individual security, inas much as the happy division of property and the in crease of industry render it more and more necessary. Full of respect and good wishes for the rights of other nations, and in its own case for all the rights, without distinction, of individual, civil, and religious liberty, it knows nothing better than the duty of maintaining with firmness, and, if need be, of de fending with energy, its own rights of independence, of liberty, and of legal order, the laws to which it has consented, and the popular throne which it has established. To the National Guards these great duties are peculiarly intrusted; and as no foreign influence would be able to prevail against the French nation, proud of its recollections, of its power, of the great and virtuous example which it has just offered to the world, whilst holding in its hands the sacred weapons of liberty, so no internal intrigue, no at tempt to excite disorder, which the odious tactics of our adversaries have already rendered so fatal, ought to have power at present to triumph over that spirit of wisdom, of moderation, and, at the same time, of energetic and persevering patriotism, which characterises France at present, and which our brave countrymen so gloriously displayed on the three great days of July. The Commander-in-Chief, ready upon all occa sions to serve his brethren in arms, by every exer tion of his devotion and p ersona l independence, ! communicates this day to them certain provisional instructions through the agency of the Inspector- General, whose long experience assists his labours. It will not be long before a law upon the definitive organization of the National Guards will be presented by the Government; its basis will be that of the law of 1791, founded on the vital principle of the election by the citizens. That is only an additional reason for giving, from this moment, greater activity to that spontaneous motion of our zeal, which forms at (once the honour and strength of France, and which presents her with a face as she ought to bear towards her friends, and in case of need towards her enemies.

" This morning, at half-past nine o'clock, his Royal Highness the Prince of Orange arrived here, and alighted at his palace. As soon as he was seen riding into the town, a great multitud e fl oc k e d to gether, and express e d their joy at his return by loud acclamations. On alighting from the carriage his Royal Highness shook hands with great emotion with many persons, and exclaimed, ' You are brave citizens.' A few moments afterwards, his Majesty the King, who h a d b een i n f orme d of ie approach ing arrival of the Crown Prince by Adjutant Om phal, who arrived here this morning at eight o'clock, went to the hotel of the Prince of Orange, and returned to his Palace. Scarcely had the assembled crowd, chiefly consisting of per sons of respectability, got sight of the King, when a general hurrah arose from all sides, and all those who were present threw their hats into the air. Every body was affected : the King himself was visibly moved. The Prince of Orange, going some time afterwards to the King's Palace, was received with equally warm expressions of loyalty by the multitude, consisting chiefly of well-dressed persons, and was literally borne along by them. " Hie Royal Highness appears to have left Brut - sels satisfied with the result of his efforts. The people declared that they desired to have every thing clone according to the fundamental law; and solemnly protested that they desired no other dynasty than that which governs the kingdom —on condition, however, as it is said, that the two parts of the kingdom shall have distinct administrations under the same bead. The Orange cockade is to be immediately worn, and the Orange flag hoisted on the towers. Shortly after the arrival of his Royal Highness in this town, a Cabinet Council was called, which is now sitting. " We hear that his Majesty, on the repeated and urgent request of M. C. P. Van Maarten, who during a period of 35 years has served the country in various high offices with so much zeal and fide- lity, yesterday gave him an honourable discharge from the office of Minister of Justice, expressing his gratitude for his long and faithful services to the country, (Extraordinary Amsterdam Courant, Sept. 4. ) " The Burgomaster and Magistrates inform their fellow•citizens, that the Senate of this city unani mously resolved, on the Ist of September, to send a solemn deputation in these difficult and critical times to his Majesty, our beloved and revered King, to express to him the sentiments of sincere fidelity and attachment of the magistrates and numerous po pulation of this city to the Government and person of his Majesty, requesting him to take such mea sures as may serve to restore the tranquillity of our dear country, to consolidate more and more his Ma jesty's Government, and to maintain the fundamental laws. " This deputation being admitted to an audience of his Majesty yesterday, was not only received in the most gracious manner, hut received from him the assurance that he received with satisfaction the expressions of his attachment of his good city of Amsterdam; that he requested the deputation to testify his pleasure at the good spirit of all classes of the inhabitants; and that he desired no better proof of attachment than the continuance of that quietness which can alone enable him to consider of such men mires, and to propose them to the States-General, the legal representatives of the country, as may tend to restore tranquillity and the maintenance of the fundamental law, avoiding every thing that may give occasion, even with the best intentions, to any in terruption of tranquillity. " The Burgomaster and Magistrates are happy to make this known to their fellow-citizens, and confi dently expect that all the inhabitants, as they have done for some days past, will be eager to fulfil the wish of our beloved King, by continuing to avoid every thing that may oppose this wish, and in par ticular to be on their guard against all clamour, un usual assemblage of people, and the like, of which those who seek their advantages in disorder may easily take advantage to the prejudice of the worthy inhabitants and the interrupti on o f tranquillity, " Amster:llm, Sept. 4.

" Whereas an unthinking and idle wantonness, arising, it is said, from a quite insignificant cause, has led on some evenings to assemblages of people in the streets and .Promenades, which might easily be construed in an unfitvourable manner; the Senate is induced, in paternal regard for the city, to give public notice, that with respect to such assemblages, the Riot Act of the Bth July, 1700, will be enforced.

CONSTANTINOPLE, AUG. 10.--There have lately been very serious disturbances in the district of Tossia, a pretty considerable town in the province of Sinope, in Asia Minor. The rioters plundered several villages, and set them on fire. It seems that the party of the Janissaries is revived in those countries. The natives of that district, who were suspected of an intention to excite discontent in this capital, were arrested, and on the 31st of July they were beheaded. The Sultan has lately given orders to rebuild the Greek Convent of Our Lady, in the Island of Chalki. This is a result of a visit which the Sultan made to that island last week. A German who lately arrived here has proposed to the Government to insure against fire all the possessions of the Turkish subjects, for a premium of 12 per cent. per annum, the policy of insurance to be renewed annually. Ile has also offered to travel through the empire and value each village separately. It is affirmed that peace is quite restored in Albania, and the Grand Vizier, now at Menaster, will return in a month to the capital, and leave his son, Mahmoud, Pacha of two tails, as Governor of that Provi nce . Th e P ac h a of Scutari will return to his Pachalik. On the 6th of this month the English Ambas sador presented to the Sultan, in a private audience, kis new credentials from King William IV. A letter from Smyrna says—" On the first of this month the white flag was seen flying over the red flag on the flag-staff on the ruins of the Old Castle which overlooks the city. The Government had itg taken down immediately, and took much pains to discover the author, but notwithstanding the strictest search, no discovery has been made. Some of the lower class of Mahometans pretend that it was done by French sailors, but the Govern ment and all sensible persons are convinced that the author can be no other than some evil-minded Al gerine, who endeavoured, by this wretched proceed trig, to excite the Turkish population against the Franks. Nobody, however, moved, and th e sub ject is no longer thought of."—Prtasian State Gazette. STOCKHOLM, AUG. 27.

Private letters from Berlin say, that Count Lobau had had, on the 30th, the honour of delivering to his Majesty the King a letter from King Louis Philip 1., and that he received a present of a rich diamond snuff-box. It is asserted here that equally satisfac tory accounts respecting the affairs of Prance have been received from St. Petersburgh. Count Lobau has expressed himself much gratified with the gracious manner in which his communication was received. His Majesty invited the Count to dinner, and proposed to him tobe present at a review which is to take place near Brandenburg. We have more than once had occasion to al lode to the great success of the salmon fishing. on the Forth. Of late the take of fish has been greater than for many years past. On Saturday the boats belonging to the Magistrates caught nearly 170 salmon and grilse', which weighed about 1,400 lbs. ; and on Tuesday the take weighed 900 lbs. It has been frequently remarked that wet summers are always capital fishing seasons, nor is the present likely to prove an exception to the rule. Salmon has been selling in town at 9d. and 10d. per lb., and grilses at od. and 7d. It would appear, however, that it It only in the stations around and above Stirling► that the fishings have been so very successful, as about Kincardine, Dunmore, Airth, Cukor', and other stations on the estuary, the take of fish this year is below an average, and has been worse than usual of late...—Slirling Journal. Privilege of Parliament—a mode of expres sion which seems to comprehend the exemption of Mem bers from such judicial proceedings as impede their Parlia mentary functions, together with an exclusive jurisdiction of either House over offences, whether by their own Mem bers, or by others, which peculiarly and manifestly tend to impair the authority and obstruct the duties of Parlia ment —a principle in later times unpopular, but which was undoubtedly for ages the coat-ef•mail under cover of which the Commons marched through so many fierce and puissant foes—owed its origin to the famous instance of THORP; the Speaker ; iw which the Judges declared, " That they would not determine the privilege of the High Court of Parliament, of which the knowledge belongeth to the Lord. of Parliament, and not the Justices,"--- Macintosh's Ilisiory of England. - - - In August, 1829, there appeared in the French Globe an article on the late French Ministry, which was said, in the private circles in Paris, to be from the pen of the Duke de BROGLIE. It contains a prediction of the il legal and arbitrary course which the late infatuated Mi. nistry would pursue, and of the successful resistance with which it would be met by the insulted nation. The pre. diction has been so singularly verified by the events, that one might almost be justified in supposing that it had been arranged for many months previously to the bursting forth Of the late revolution, that the attack upon the liberty of the Press should be the signal fur launching its thunder bolts against those who bad been guilty of so infamous a dereliction of duty to themselves, their country, and their Kim We subjoin extracts from the article of which we have been speaking. The writer asks, " Will the Mi nistry be long formidable? and what must it do to become so? These are terrible questions, which France puts with anxiety, and of which she awaits the solution in agony._ Hitherto we know nothiag but the projects of the party. The principal of these would be to change the elective system, if not by a law, at least by an ordinance. In order to succeed in it, if the liberty of the Press stands in the way, the censorship will be re-established—still by an ordinance : and if such boldness should find obstacles in the law, recount) would be had to a force above the law. Absolute power would be restored by usurpation." It is not often that men are fools enough to take a lesson from their enemies : hut it really does seem as if the late Ministers had determined to shape their political course after the chart which the Duke de liaaGunt here laid be fore them.

FRANCE• TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING CHRONICLE. Paris, Sept. 5, 1830. SIR,---" The plot thickens 1" We are in the midst of anarchy ; A crusade has commenced against machinery. lam obliged to state what I am sorry to have occasion to do, that I fear force must be .resorted to in order to suppress the spirit of rioting. The workmen are now leaguing together. The journeymen printers have to-day published their Address. It is in the form of a letter to the Courier Francais—it is placarded on all the walls of Paris; and thousands of copies are being distributed in the streets. These workmen are not destitute of money, and if they want employment, it is their own fault. The Jesuits, Ex-Royalists, and Ex-Peers I are ac cused of supplying with funds the rioters. The Gazette:de France denies this; but it is not a little singular that the establishments of the Gazette de France, and the Quotidienne, the only two Royalist Journals published in Paris, have not been visited by these marauders, whilst all the workshops of the Liberal Papers have been invaded. But let us do justice even to these disturbers of the public peace. They have published their statement, and the sub stance of which is us follows: I. The master printers are too few in number—the monopoly is injurious, and the masters are selfish and un charitable. 2. The workmen have not threatened to break or broken the mechanical presses, but have only refased to work. 3.

In 1821 the Constitutionnel printed, with hand presses, 20,000 copies a day ; and it does not print so many now with machines. 6. The Journal de l'Empirs published, with hand presses, 29,000 per day, and no journal publishes as many now. 7. The mechanical presses are principally made in Eng land, and therefore, by their not continuing to be made, French artisans would not be thrown out of employ. 8. The Government cannot force us to work, but only not to make riots. 9. The master printers speak of bayonets ! " Yes, doubtless, when your pecuniary interests are at stake, you would show as much ferocity as the Swiss or the Bedouins!" This is the worst passage in the address. 10. " The National Guards are to put us down. But why all this parade ? We ourselves will form part of the National Guard." 11. It is not true that we have received money from the Jesuits, or bare been instigated by others to make these demands. We act on our own authority and opinion, and we will have our rights ! This is the substance of the Address. The Courtier Francais has not published it as it was required to do—but on the contrary, in the Journal, which has appeared this morning, a whole colume is left blank --and it is stated by the Redaclure that there were no compositors to set up the remainder. The Moniteur of this day has a long official article on this subject. It is written with temperance and justice. It says that France desired liberty, and that she has obtained it ; and that she now desires tran quillity, and that she shall enjoy it. It says that the Government of Louis Philip has shown its modera tion ; but that now it will show its firmness. It assures France that the Ministers will not yield to these senseless cries, and that it is doing all that is necessary to insure peace and suppress rebellion. It appears, from the statement of the Government, that many individuals have been arrested, and that thirteen, who were the ringleaders, and had signed an Act of Convention, have been sent to prison. The Government has also marched into Paris the 4th, sth, 13th, 50th, and 53d Regiments of the Line, and you cannot walk 100 paces without en countering soldiers and patrols. The young men in the capital, who are engaged in shops and warehouses, have received circular let ters, ►nviting them to assemble this evening at seven, opposite the Bourse. Thousands of these circulars have bees sent round, and multitudes will assemble, from malice or curiosity, to interrupt the peace of the capital. The majority, however, are by no means disposed to be present. I have spoken to many of them, and they state that, if necessary, they will even fire on the workmen, rather than have the capital subject to pillage and force. It is alleged that the workmen at Rouen, hearing of these insurrections, are marchingto Paris to assist their fellow-labourers. I hope this report is incor rect. The worst of all wars is a civil war; and the worst of all civil wars is when the middling classes are opposed to the labourers. The Bourgeois of Paris are, however, united and resolute. If it be necessary they will again unpave the streets, and oppose by force the violence of the mob. It is possible that the Government may re press the sad signs of disorder which we witness to-day. Strangers in Paris, of every nation, have circu lars addressed to them inviting them to enter the National Guards. It is deemed desirable to strengthen their ranks, and to increase the number as much as possible. These precautions are wise, though I will yet hope that resistance to violence may not be necessary. It is proposed by some persons of talent and honesty to abolish all privileged rights, and to make it competent to any one to become a printer, or any thing else, without any brevet. In reply to this, it is said that the vested interests of those who have bought their businesses and patents for large sums of money, on the faith that those vested interests would be protected, ought not thus to be violated by force, and that it would be unjust if the Government should allow a baker, for example, whose " good-will" cost him 2,0001. sterling, to find of a sudden twenty bakers established in the same district, all at once opposing him, and reduc ing him to ruin. This objection is, however, met by the following reply :—We have made a revolu tibn; we are still in a revolution. The public inte rests will be benefitted by the destruction of mono polies, and individual benefit should not be set up against the general good. The Procureur du Roi (M. 13ernard) has how ever made a second stand. Yesterday he applied to the General Lafayette. He called on the General to aid him in maintaining order, and in putting down this spirit of opposition. I understand that the General received him with kindness, and assured him that he might count on his co-operation. This morning the General has issued an Address to the National Guards. lie calls on them to maintain order—to rally round the standard of a legal and rational liberty —and he tells them that he relies on them to aid him in maintaining the peace of the country. The Prefect of the Seine has also published a spirited and dignified Proclamation. He has spoken with his usual decision of character. He is accused of being too fond of popularity, and of courting too much the opinions and smiles of the mob I Ido not believe the charge, and his address gives the lie to his enemies. To-morrow is St. Monday On Monday the workmen of Paris seldom labour. To-morrow is therefore fixed on by the leaders of the mob for processions and riots ; but the police is now orga nizing rapidly, the Government is on the alert, and I hope that peace and tranquillity are not far dis tant, though to-day all looks gloomy and war►ike. To add to the. annoyances of domestic news, it is asserted that the Prince of Orange had left Brus sels without coming to any arrangement, and that the Russians in Paris have received letters from their Government, advising them to return to their native country, and that without delay. As to Spain, a revolution is inevitable ! no one can grieve at this. Thousands of refugees ate assembling on the (=tiers, and Mina is hastening to head his forces. In France there are divisions, which are created and kept up by Royalists, Jesuits, Priests, Peers, Ex-Deputies, Ex-Plawmen, apd Courtiers, and by paid emissaries of the Ez-Royal Family. In some places regiments of soldiers are in mutiny, and is others the Royalists refuse, en mane, to pay their taxes. But though there is much to create alias ADO discontent, yet the Revolution is aceomplitittat We cannot and shall riot return to our old tqlalt All hopes of that nature are absurd.
