FOR EIGN INTELLIGENCE,

FRANCE.

PARIS, FRIDAY EVZ/CING.

The appearance of war has been kept up at Chalons to
the end. The great camp-drama began with an imperial
proclamation promising victories. It closed yesterday
with a distribution of meda3e, given by the Emperor him_
self to the soldiers, who, in the sham fights of the few
past weeks, have exhibited diligence and ♦alour. Soon
after this ceremony the Empress left for Paris; the Em-
peror will remain at the Camp until Saturday.
The following order of the day has been published :
Camp of Chalons, Oct• 8.
Soldiers !—The time which we have passed together
will not have been lost. Your military instruction has
been improved, and the bonds which united us have been
drawn closer. When General Bonaparte had concluded
the glorious peace of Campo Formio, he hastened to again
place the conquerors of Italy in the platoon and battalion
training, thus showing how useful he considered it, even
for old soldiers, to constantly fall back on the fundamental
rules of theory. That lesson has not been forgotten ; as,
scarcely had you returned from a glorious campaign,
when you applied yourselves with zeal to the practical
study of evolutions, and you have now inaugurated the
camp at Chalons, which is to serve as a great school of
manoeuvres for the whole army. The Imperial Guard
will thus always set a good example, in peace as well as
in war. Instructed, disciplined, and ready to undertake
and support everything for the welfare of the country, it
will be for the line, out of which it comes, a just object of
emulation, and will contribute with it to preserve intact
that old reputation of our immortal phalanxes, which
have only succumbed from the excess of their glory and
of their triumphs.—NAPOLEON.
This document is remarkable. We will
.not speak of
the comparison between the conquest of Italy and the
storming of the Malakoff, but we think it to be rather
curious that immediately after the fond embraces of
Stuttgardt, the Emperor alludes in' such expressive
words to the glory of the Crimean campaign. Then, we
have it officially from the pen of the Emperor that the
Camp of Chalons will be a permanent one, and will serve
as a great school of manoeuvres for the whole army.
Lastly, the assertion, that the immortal phalanxes of
France only succumbed from the excess of their glory
and of their triumphs, is, wo think destined to be a con-
solation for the soldiers who might be dissatisfied a'
being not sufficiently enraged in foreign wars. The
Emperor seems to mean : "I am peaceable only out of
regard to the welfare of my soldiers ; T shield them
against the excesses of triumph, because these would be
followed by a speedy downfall."
The Legislative Body will probably be convoked for the
month of December, as the Constitution requires it to
assemble within a certain period after the elections, in
order to verify the return of its members.
A Vienna letter in the Nuremburg Gazette states that
Baron de Hubner, Austrian Ambassador in Paris, remit-
ted to the Emperor Napoleon, at Chalons, an autographic
letter from the Emperor Francis Joseph, relative to the
Principalities and to the reciprocal concessions which
might solve that difficulty.
A Paris letter, in the Nord of Brussels, arnrms that the
Chinese question will be taken up again by France and
England. Baron Gros, the French Ambassador, as well
as Lord Elgin, will try to negotiate directly with the
Court of Pekin. As soon as the bad faith or the weak-
ness of the Chinese Government will have been brought
to light, the blockade of the Canton river will be followed
by stronger measures. The combined squadrons of
England and France will attack the city of C triton ; it is
even thought probable that the allied forces will penetrate
fnrther into the interior of the country.
Russia, also, is picking a quarrel with the- Celestial
Empire. The Russian admiral rutiatine has received
orders to take the squadron stationed at the river Amoor
and to sail with it to Shanghai, where he will be joined by
a squadron of five minor ships of war. He is instructed
to demand satisfaction from the Chinese Government for
its having refused to receive the extraordinary mission
which the Emperor of Russia wished to send to Pekin.
The Spe-kteur expresses a hope that the day of humi_
liation in England may not have been lost on the statesmen
of that country, and that the reflection which that day
must have inspired, may haye cured them of that

ttquarrelsorne, unjust, and aggressive policy which has
weaned the sympathies of the Continent of Eogland":—
England, says that journ4l. has good reason to humble
herself, and should the Almighty re-establish her former
power, we trust that this humiliation will bear its fruits,
and that the meditations of this day of prayer will not
be lost. A grautl dud Solemn opportunity has hpen
offered to the statesmen who have governed that country
for years past, to reflect on their policy. We need only
repeat what the best friends of Englawl in the French
press have affirmed—that their quarrelsome, unjust, and
aggressive policy, has done everything but obtain for
England the sympathies of the continent. And when this
rule, which seemed to grasp at everything, was seen to
be menaced on the point where it appeared to be the best
established, the general sentiment was not that which
ought to have prevailed at the spectacle of the horrible
duel raging in India between civilisation and barbarism.
It must nevertheless be admitted, that a grand and noble
sight is offered by this nation—so haughty, so full of its
power—humbling itself at the voice of its Sovereign
before the hand which chastises it, and imploring God to
bestow on it the strength to conquer. These are signs by
which tie recognise a strong and free people, and a nation
called upon to accomplish high destinies.
