CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, Nov. 25. DEBATE ON TIIE ADDRESS. Marshal Soult first ascended the tribune, and said he claimed the right to engage the responsibility of the Cabinet on this great question by a few explanations. His great object was to maintain the truth. '1 he truth was, notwithstanding all attacks, that France was ready for a just and honourable war, but that it pre ferred, peace. Such was t h e idea which directed his present policy, as and eouneilled both to itself and to Europe, an h onou r a ble that of his former Cabinet. When the Ministry of the 12th of May retired from office, this same desire had not been disavowed; and now that the difficulties of the situation have been auemented, it is the open and frankly avowed object of the present Administra tion. Faithful to the policy which had prevailed from the year 1830, France was anxious that the East should be preserved from the visitation of war. It was aboVe all impor. taut that a disastrous war should not break out in the Ottoman empire, or at least, that if it did break out, it should be terminated as speedy, as possible. What we were anxious for, and what we still desire, was the safety of Constantinople and even of Egypt. In demanding that the vas_ sat of the Porte should be maintained in a favourable position, we wished to spare him the experiment of a war. France, which ap. -'Geared to be more disinterested than all ,the Others in the Eastern about question, had most chance of bringing laoitZnquttal3terrfente ment. It made efforts for this. it declaration was made, guaran. teeing the integrity and independence of the Ottoman empire against all, even against its protectors. ; A French fleet watched over Con stantinople.

A collective peotectosesseased bestaautaitittlted ter. atl I ; Du rs it wißriniportant that Franeti should not be shut out ciflhim lective protectorate. There was every wish on the part of the , other Powers to admit her into it ; and hence the proposals and concessions, greater or less, made at different times. Let Its be just to ourselves without accusing others, nor supptee that any other Power could be anxious to quarrel with us. On the con. tsary, the opposition to France on account of its support of Egypt had diminished, and much that was contested at first had been subsequently ceded. Why were these concessions not followed by results ? Why did important overtures made later lead to no reconciliation? Why did no arrangement take piece for a greater or less proportion of Syria, under a longer or shorter tenure, instead of coming down to the abandonment of all Syria to the chances of war ? lie would not examine this. He accepted facts already acomplished ; but he was t ersuaded that. France was a country with which all Powers would be rather at peace than at war. There can, there could be no intention to insult us. It is well known what France has done and can do. Ile saw in the re spect paid to himself in England, that the English knew well how to appreciate the cld French soldier. He was proud and anxious to preserve the esteem of the English in serving his own country, whose interests he preferred to peace, and which he would not dis honour or compromise at the close of his days. As War Minister, he saw that France must preserve an armed peace, and concentrate its force, without letting loose mad passions, show itself powerful with out provocation, ready for events but equitable in appreciating the acts of others. We may thus spare France the necessity of making too great sacrifices to objects not of inoperative necessity. He hoped that having long served the State as General, he could now best serve it as a citizen. M Thiers then ascended the tribune, and addressed the Chamber as follows—The Chamber will, I hope, appreciate the motives which have induced me to address it at so early a period of the dis cussion. Having taken a part in the great events of the last few months, I naturally feel desirous of rendering an accnunt of my conduct to the Chamber and to the country. I will do this with frankness, but, at the same time, I will respect the secrets of the State. I will not make of this great discussion a sorry affair of personal feeling. Whilst Europe has its eyes upon us, I will not endeavour to throw upon my predecessors or upon my successors the responsibility of the misfortunes of the country. So, Gentle. men, I will strictly confine myself to an expose of facts. I will not recal to the' Chamber the way in which the Eastern question arose here. We had not been fortunate in the Belgian question, the Italian question, the Spanish question, and every person saw in the Egyptian question the means of securing the prosperity of the country. This is shown by the labours of one of your Honourable Reporters, M. de Jouffroy. Every one was anxious that France should play a great part In the Eastern question. They considered that it was the interest of France to maintain the integrity of the Ottoman empire. What was meant by this principle? That the Ottoman empire should be rendered thoroughly independent, and what had been created in Egypt be consolidated. An immense difficulty, however, presented itself—we had before us Russia and England. It was, indeed, a bold thing to enter upon this ques. tion ; but, having entered upon it, we were bound to persevere, and to come out of it with honour, and in a manner worthy of the French nation— Passy here asked leave to speak. M. Mites resumed—l do not want to accuse any one. I admit the difficulty for all of us ; but I ask justice for myself, giving, per haps, more than justice to others. It was extremely difficult to keep French interests in the East, having both England and Russia to keep head against. There was, indeed, a hardy and selfish po licy, which would have enabled France, instead of uniting all the Powers, to separate them irrevocably, and then, after having sepa. rated them, to render the alliance of France necessary for one as for the other, and to take advantage of this to make conditions. Permit me to describe the sta‘e of wings when news of hostilities in the East was brought. England was seized with suspicions and renewaedlliancSehah Sh e wished if,eroavrsi,dethfaotrtthheiseviemnintsodofiailel3y,Bamndisttihtote h her g was somewhat re l axe d. ow ing to the Spanish and Belgian question, he was still anxious to form a close alliance with us. It would have beemeasy for them to have exaggerated the - suspicions of Eng land, and pushed matters to a war. Russia 1151 V with regret the wi s h of England to form an alliance with France. She was pre pared not to recoil, but to meet events with energy. Austria and Prussia, dreading the collision between England and Russia, were for interfering. In this state of things, France might have blown the flame, and set Europe in a conflagration. Instead of that she succeeded in bringing about a general reconciliation, a restoration of European harmony and concert. England then proposed a close union between her and France. She proposed to unite the two fleets, send them to the coast of Syria, and force the two bellige. rents to lay down their arms, the Russia ns all and alter that, after taking a say from etioltfl tehsetyinhath"een3 pretext to remain at Constantinople, to proceed . a r T e i n l I c e h m c a ianbi nheetrerespaiiide,d thither and summon them to quit it. e o d th t o o f b m it y li , er l e s . 3 " 9. It al. Thiess resumed—To summon them in words, which would leave no doubt as to the immediate consequences of their refusal. declared it not ready to explain the designs of France till it knew more completely those of England, which seemed singu. The f t . larly to acquiesce in the arrival, in the first instance, of the Russians .at Constantinople. The F rench Cabinet thus, going further than the English Cabinet, made a profound impression on the latter, which replied by a demand for an alliance between France and England, the union and action of the combined fleets, the forcing the Pacha and the Sultan to lay y down their arms, and then to pro. cecd to the Dardanelles, summon the Russians to withdraw if they, were there, or, if they were only coining, to ask leave of the Porte to enter the Dardanelles to oppose them, or to do so without the leave of the Porte, were it refused. France had here the option of uniting her policy for ever to that of England; it was not without peril. Instead of this she proposed not to give the Admiral the bold orders which England wished, but to bid them ask leave of the Porte to enter the D ardanelles simultaneously with the Rus sians entering the Bosphorus. With this she proposed to unite a Congress of all the Powers at Vienna, and of all the flags on th 4 sea, even the Russian flag, so as to act in concert on the Syrian Matt, and in the Sea of Martnora, and for the Five Powers to take the place of the Sultan in negotiating with the Paeha, England made several objections to this plan. She edhered to the proposat of France with respect to th e or d ers t o be given td the Admirals; She objected to Vienna as the place of conference, preferring L ath , don or Paris. She did not like the assembly of all the flags allei fleets, especially of the Russian flag ; but she highly approved the idea of all the Five Powers undertaking to settle the delimitation between Porte and Pacha. The Conference of the Powers was proposed at Vienna, wher e P rince M ettern ich inst ant l y foresaw that Russia would object to it, on account of the great activity and zeal shown by England and France. He foresaw rightly, Russia refused to join the Conference, declaring that the unsex. sonable activity of the Powers would destroy the repose of Europe, instead of preserving it. But what failed in Vienna succeeded in Constantinople, Had Admiral Roussin, who had received in. structions of which the spirit was conformable to the intended note of the 27th of July, signed it— NEW WORK BY CAPTAIN 11ARRYAT, C.B.

Tlie T reaty of July, if no actually signed that day, was virtually thenceforth concluded At this time M. Guiaot left Paris for London, and he was in strutted to obtain from the English Cabinet the hereditary pos. session of Egypt and Syria for the Pacha; this was the position in which the Cabinet of the Ist March found affairs on its accession to power. What had taken place may be summed up in a few words; France, instead of seeking to disunite the Powers, sought which, Prince Metternich was most wroth ; and very O gra n ea v l es r u n s i p n i g cien arose as to what could have induced M.

The refusal of the new Cabinet of the Ist March to listen to the appeal to the Chambers, and to demand of them the means of teen. proposition of England arose from a policy wain I will call piecing the armaments; we did so. This was our conduct. The national, and which has obtained the sympathies of the no- sending of the fleet to Alexandria amounted to a case of war, not tion. The Chamber became associated with this policy ; and it inevitable, but possible; but such an act would have sustained and was out of the power of the Cabinet, to which he belonged, to saved the Viceroy ; and Ido not think that the country will be angry change it. Ills Cabinet was of the same opinion with the couldrY with a former Minister merely because he owns thst he had dared in considerine that it had immense and real interests in this gees- to expose it to the possibility of a war.

And i ben, in the state in which the country was, what would have ti eel; our 'resist, mice to war ? When Europe was wishing ler peace, aAd pren'eoting every day its pacific intentions, you would not have kept - down pas sions at home. What would have been your resistance if Eunope had replied to your attitude by menaces? War would i ben ha ve been certain. The question was received : it was time to put a ate is , to this delusion. It was time for the Government to give eon Menem to its friends, who, tram I S3O, had struggled for order ai.d pft•ce.

This is a question which may be discuissed without our charging each other with desiring peace a t tout prir, or war a I oret pri.e, It ic not the first time that sue h a question has been discuaed in deliberative assemblies. When Mr. Pitt discussed in Pailiainent the question whmther war should be declared against time French Republic or not, his speeches turned upon the quesiion itself; and no pen., uma dai of it an object for insulting or reroluticnary qualific, No. You do not wish for war a tout pric,nor do .ve desire pe L ve tout prir. You were a Cabinet composed of men of you tege and ardour, who thought war imminent, and therefore prep,. red for it.

It was to as v this to you that I asecndedthe tribune. To-morrow I shall enter • upon the question more fully ; but I was anxious this evening to establish your dignity and my own, and to do you that justice which you have not dune to yourselves.

M. l'assy (Minister of Finance is the Cabinet of the ltlth Aptitr rose to explain to the Chamber the site of a ff airs at the time of thc• Treaty of 15th of July, respecting which' notions had had been entertained, and even been expret Ned at the tribune.

The second was to hr. the issue of events in a manner favourable to the peace of Csk Our first step was to consult Lord Palmerston, who 4 visoi the formation of a Congress at Vienna , The President u► the Council was in error yesterday when he said the proposal had et nated from us. The hesitation on the part of the French Gores • "is ment to enter into the views of Lord Palmerston had produced rut' unfavourable impression 011 the English Cabinet, but it was of iias pOrtance to obtain further information as to the exact state et! affairs. The Honourable Deputy then proceeded to read acul com.. ment upon several official documents and despatches, to prose that no direct proposal had been made by England to France to foixe tic Dardanelles. The contrary assertion arose from a mistake slf the French Charge d'Affaires, who had misconstrued an allusion ti i th at effect in a conversation with Lord Palmerston. The Hon. Dot 'putt' referred to the refusal of Russia to join in the conference of Vie nna, and to the mission of M. Btunow to London, and its injurious in. 1 "- ence on the Anglo-French alliance, and read documents to show tk the French Government acted consistently with the honour and bk - Wrests of France, in refusing to join in any proposition for deprivi Mehemet Ali of his just and acquired rights, and thereby distutbirtg the ba.ance of power. France could not abandon the cause of th after having induced him V. desist from his threatened ex pedition to Constantinople. The French Government had done all in its power to remain in friendly relation with England. He should reserve further remarks for a future stage of the discussion. After a suspension of the sitting for a quarter of an hour, M. Guizot rose to lay before the Chamber the history of the ne gotiations ou the Eastern question since his appointment as Ambas sador to Loudon. The Government had not then decided on any • particular line of policy, but were disposed to follow that, of their /wetter( ssors : and, as M. Massy observed, there had been 110 terial deviatiot. from it. (LEFT SPEAKING.) SPAIN. MAPIZIP, Not. 19.—The levee held to-day in honour of its being the Queen's fete, or patron Saint's day, was very brilliant although few ladies attended. The members of the Regency, who, in that capacity had the right of being by their sovereign's side, had the modesty of acting but as INliiiisters of the Crown, and as such stood behind the thrOile. The levee was principally attended by military men ; among them the gallant Duke of Bailin held the. foremost place. Several nominations and appointmmits are to take place in honour of the day. 11.

This gentleman will in that capacity ac lompany Marshal Espartero, should he proceed to the Basque provimlrs, which still continues to he talked of as being very likely. This measure is said to have a twofold purpose—tOrst, to pacify the Basque provinces, in which a certain degree of essatisfaction is prevailing ; and, secondly, to inspect the frontiers, on. -account of a French corps being about to be placed in their vicinity. Despatches have been received horn General Ribera, _in which he asks for reinforcements and instructions. It appears that seve ral delicate questions have arisen with respect to the fees os, and that the Deputy-General of Rscay has expressed himself in vetlr hostile language to the authorities of the province. In spit. 2of an this, it is probable that Espartero will not leave Madrid, as by so doing, he wcold leave his two opponents, Cortina and Becerni, ful! play for their projects against him. Our Gazette contains a decree of amnesty, on the occasion of the Queen's fete, to all ptisoners throughout Spain and its posses. sions, with tha exception of those guilty of murder, treason, arson and other heinous offences. POLITICAL SUMMARY OF THE MORNING JOURNALS. From an unusual press of matter we are compelled to restrict ourselves to a brief summary of the contents of the leading articles of the Morning Papers this day. The r Morning Post, in discussing the speeches of Marshal Soua and M. Thiers in the Chamber of Deputies. on Wednes day last, i says—" The speech of the ex-Minister s !or flexed, obsure, almost contradictory. and fulf of p eevis h , personal bitterness." The Times, speaking of she Eastern Question, says—" We have frequently declargd our own wish to be that Mehemet Ali should be peaceably and securely settled in the Government of Egypt. V.Ve desire it on grounds wholly unconnected with the causs.s, pro gress, or military results of the quarrel now all but termi nated." The Morning Herald thus expresses itself .on the subject of manning the navy—. Why should impress merit he ever necessary? England abounds with sailoes—the best sailors in the world—,all of them,too, eager to p vocure employment? Why, then, should these men be compelled to serve on board Queen's ships ? For no other re. AB " 1 than that Government will not pay them a fair cquivafent for their labour." The Morning Cho (midi, in a leading ar,i. vie on M.Thicrespeech, expresses a h o p e t h at i t " folly de - monstrates the wisdom and necessity of England's interfer ing to restore to the Sultan those shoreb and that influence which the French Minister owns he endeavoured to keep for the Paella, solely for the benefit of Fiance." Th.. Morning Advertiser says, with respect to M. 'Thiers' speech, " the whole exordi um i mp li ed as high a tribute to the policy of Lord Palmerston as that nobleman's mess enthusiastic eulogist could have pronounced upon it." SIR T HOMAS DICK LAUDKRtSIEGENDARY well qualified as Sir Thomas the legendary stories in whic h the rich. Traditions are the li te rature t he give H s i g u h i s . n p d l pleasure s havesure : h. :: find bet on one 0:: TALES OF Tile IiIiaILANDS. te i r c a k tu L re au o d r er a e r m u p d l c oyed peol i , n ie p , p r es ervi ng e l l:: heroic deed, or fragment ; of ancient wisdom, is transmitted by Hums with less ac curacy, but mere Considered in this v , ew , a true collec tion t than ion bya_ lette r..

For this purpose they should pe r h a ps be recorded'es nearly as possible in the language of their depositories. Sir Thomas Lauder, however, preferred giving us his Legends, dressed up with the skill of a prat.. tised writer, and flavoured with only just such a tincture of Scott i cism as the most fastidious purist might relish.
