PARIS. OCTOBER 20.—0 n Thursday Ale. Canning had the
honour to dine at the Tuileries the King and the Rnyal
Family. The Courri'r Francais toys upon this subject, " The
superstitions of etiquette and the vanities of the Court have
icon received a cheek which d:aconcerts them. The Minister of a
foreign Government—a plebeian, who has no other title titan that
of heing a great orator, a skilful statesman, and an eloquent pro-
claimer of a system!!! civil, eontatrri int. and religious liberty, has
had the honour to en to-day at the King's table. In this elorles
X. his done what appeared quite natural to Henry IV. and the
chiefs of oor ancient monarchy. It was not till the time of Louis
XIV. that forms more Asiatic than really French were introduced
round the throne. A harrier, which scarcely existed any where ex-
cent at the Courts of Versailles and Madrid, has thus faller, after a
month's hesitation, before illusttioas renown. Such an rsample
undoubtedly will not be confined to foreigners ; but the King of
France will grant the same distinction to the merit and services
of his subjects. Title morning Mr. Canning breakfasted at St.
Quen, with one of our principal manufacturers; and this even-
ing he had the honour to dine at the Tuileries with the King and
Royal Family. None but men thrown by mistake into our age—
none but old courtiers are capable of being astonished at what is so
proper and conformable to the spirit of the French Charter and the
British Constitution. Such are the consequences and inspirations
of Comnitotional Royally in both countries." It is expected that
the Hight HOD. Gentleman will leave Paris foe London on Monday
or Tuesday.—Galignani's Ilfroseisger.
Mr. Canning, after having gone the round of hospitality in Paris,
and finished his conferences and visits, both of a itilitical and do-
mestic nature, Is on the eve of returning. He has appointed to
dine with Lord Liverpool at Widmer Castle to-morrow, when the
entire bucket of Parisian poiltica with all their beatings and tend-
encies, will, very likely, be discussed.
