PARIS, TIIIIRSDAT aVIXI3IO.I
The question of the abolition of the claque in the
*Nitres has just received the solution which Will
foreseen. After a few representations without hireid
applauders, during which a fatal coldness had replaced
the animation produced by the elaqs•eurs, the direc-
tors have received a communication permitting them

- -
to return to the old system. Yesterday, therefore,
these noisy legions resumed their habital place under
the lustre, and, thanks to the forced repose that they
have undergone, their enthusiasm was never moue
warmly manifested.
The sub-prefect of Doullens has transmitted to
the Minister of Justice the following letter from M.
Sobrier :
Sire,—The great voice of Frazee having declared itself
against the ideas for which for the last five years I have loot
my liberty, and having definitively confided to you the care
of her glory and of her happiness, makes it imperative on
me to bow before the powerful resolution which she has
just taken, at the same time that it engages me to address
myself to you in the hope that, comprehending what are
the thousand pains attached to the position of the prisoner,
you will deign to put an end to it by restoring me to liberty,
be anylfamily, and to my affections. If, in order to return lava
private life I must pledge myself on my honour to &ban*.
he ever that policy which, after so many diseneha*Mmole
hes deprived me of my liberty, that engagement I IMP
into towards you from the bottom of my heart, for, gamma
as any one, I know how to submit to the will of new%
whose voice has just given you the right and the pewee to
bring her back by progress to that apogee of glory
and of superiority which was taken from bar by
those bad rigs's** which since 1816 have weighed so fatally
on her destinies. The clemency of your Majesty will, I
hope, extend to me, whose health, long since weakened, is
every day failing under tho rigisis• of captivity; deprived
of strength, 1 have only enough left me to make this appeal
to your heart and to the generous sentiments of which the
echo has reached me, and which will, I hope, guide it on
this occasion, for I feel convinced that you would not be
acquainted with my present deplorable situation withontrs
wish to apply a remedy to it. I therefore await with amp
fidence, sire, the decision which you will come to walk
regard to me, persuaded that your generosity will yet ea
end to my numerous and indescribable sufferings, which
you alone can make me forget by opening to me the gates
of that prison which, without your clemency, will be my
tomb. In this hope may your Majesty deign to accept the
assurance of my profound respect. stemma.
The Handcar, after giving the above letter, adds :
"The pardon of M. Sobrier has been granted."
