JOURNAL OF A TRIP TO PARIS. (No. XIV.) Not being very secnre of morning's rest, and 11.1ving the remembrance of poiisardes strong- uptitt me,'l res.Olved to take time .by the forelock, ant!, by retiring early to bed,lbe the better.able to (lure. arty visitation which might unexpectedly curtail my slumbetl. Tbere was, boA:ever,. n.o cau-tte for pp - rchension S tlse politeness of the dames aforesaid is comprised in one ceremony, and I arose undisturbed to a Paris Sunday.. 'Pere, however, Sunday shines no Sabbath-day. The Bevohttion, Which freed the Fren6b nation from !Loral obligations toliards m'arr, released the ?reach people from the exercise of. Christian'de );otion towards God. When the: social duties Were prohibited, the sacred duties Avere pro scribed. ' Wretched country ! to be plunged at once into enmity with all the earth and insult to Heaven ! . Wretched country ! to be impelled into . a career, the effect of which was to turn the armed hands of the united human species againsi you, and leave you not a Gml to appeal to for uccours in the hOur' of yoUr advtity ! Passing„along the streets, 1 could scarcely per• snack myself ,that tlic day of weekly rest bad 11TL rived. Alui - ost all tlie.sholls were open, and busi, ness.ofevery kind transacting, as on other days.--: • • If there was any difference, it was that there seein ed, even. in the early part of the day, to be more of idleness, gaining, shopping, and dissipating, than usual. But if it was so in• the morning, how far did the evening's occupations exceed those of the other portion . of the week. Al!, the Theatres are open, and more crowded with inferior company. All the dancing houses and gardens. resound with balls and rioting. Paris and its suburbs present one vast and licentious Saitirna/iaone, scene of boundless revelry and debauchery, which may . be conceived, but canna be described. should a bet ter order or things ever come to be established in France, it will be long and difficult to eradicate the pernicious habits growing out of this total disregard of the Lord's Day, the observance of which, with becOming decency, unmixed•with . austerity or a gIoOMY abstinence ,fr,om innqeent. recreations, contributes, - perhaps more than su•- .., perkcial observers are Imam of, to the conserva tion of the .getieral morals and of a, reople. . The Gardens of the Thuilleries, our Ken sington Gardens, are, especially on this day, the fashionable promenade c.f persons of all classes foaM r mu; fling to night. Till noon the-Quidnuncs, in-greater numbers than common, indulge in their lueubrations, and .discuss les grimes politiques, of which, from. the state of ignorance in which they 'have.,been kept, they hare, inso much as relates to forelf , o countries, the most confused and absurd notions.- About noon, the lower order of Citizens having dined ; begin to congregnte in the vi'alks, w=hich they almost ex-' elusively occupy for several hours,. when they re r ttre to the taverns' and dancing-rooms, leaving the :gardenS to the .occupation of the genteeler orJers, who lounge about till the hour of their dinner. No hOrses or carriage's enter this place of resort. The crowd of pedestrians is prodi gious, and at this period, from the great variety of foreign uniforms, has an uncommouly fine,cf feet. In the evening the walks are again .re plenished with a medley of all ranks, and am sorry to say that quarrels and contentions are not unfrequent in these nocturnal assemblages. It did not appear to me that the fair sex ,'here can came into' competition with my own beautiful Countrywomen. Hyde Park, on a Sunday; plays "metal more attractive," ,a thousand fold, than the Thuilleries - . The comparison indeed, in this respect, is generally, far in favour of the English Ladies. AllOwAC'e:,s . :ought, perhaps, to be made fur the dress of the French women, which is any thing but becoming. Their clothes appear to be huddled on with slatternly haste, and their monstrous bonnets disfigure many ,a pretty face though.pratty faces do Overcome even their invi (lions influence, and .the sparkling eyes of O. Gallic brunette darts from under i.beir umbrageous meg-- _nitude, like din:no:lds iu-a fairy cavern. Jr is ell: ions to observe the manners of• the People, when you have the opportunity of ex : - liming the high and low together, and observing the difference, if any, between the person of rank and tha bumbler orders. , in the externals of ce remOny, &c. there 19 no dissimilarity between the Courtier an the hegg. , r. Each of these upon meeting a friend, sautes him in the same manner , the cocked hat of both is removed from the head of its owner with a corsiderableflourish-Lthe 4 : .!•soing how is equally Irmo, the compliment quite as polite, the snuff hex_ offered as acid as t , .:vaclotisly in both cases, and profound et separation: ,If there is between them, the beggars are the more apt to display and prolong their elegant a.:!- Complishtnents— - • ;.." One fivants in tics, onefiutters in hi,ncade." I could, not lielp laughitig to see, very. often., a fellow who hadjust -solicited and obtained a sous, pass slightingly from his expres.sion of thanks for the chartiy, to pay the more congenial . trihuukof. his .enrtesies to some brother mendicant who h'd approached. Off. go the trcinewkius cocked bats of these-odd-looking beggars, and their heads, covered with - It load of hair-powder, are bent with due everdice to the earth - as; they pay their mutual respects. The hair, tied up in im mense plaited clubs, describes a semi-circte of powder on their ragged shoulder's, and, :norms a curious contrast of finery and wretchedness. — Wooden shoes are not only common - to this class of persons, but to most of the lowerorders of the people, whose motions along pave are conse quently. attended with - no inconsiderable clatter. Having descended so low with subject; as well as wits my paper, I must, for `the present, add only the word . . viArron. FRENCH I'AIT,RS.

The medals are of Dioclesian, Constantius, and Maki-- mitts. The pot containing these.medals is of an antique form, of a whitish eol,our; and without any engraving or inscription. PARts, JuNF.
