Paris Papers to the 17th inst. have reached
They dissipate tho sinister rumours circulated OH
the Stock Exchange, that the King of France was
dangerously indispmed. On Thursday he transacted
.business with his Ministers, and heard Mass in his
apartments.

All the private letters from Vienna state, in po-
sitive tern's, that the military occupation of the
Neapolitan territories by the Austrian -troops has
been definitively resolved upon, and that the chief
command of the invading army has been conferred
• on the Duke of Casalanza, better known as General
Bianchi. Such an outrage against the law of ,na-
tions must be contemplated with disgust and sorrow.
What right has any Power to interfere with the
internal policy of atry country, by any law hum= or
• divine ? Naples is at peace with all the world, and
-is it c►ntsistent with the friends of" social order" to

disturb her tranquillity. The Emperor of Austria,
according to letters from Troppau, has rocoveral
from his.late•indisposition, and on the 26th ultimo
gave a superb Lutertainment, at which the Emperor
Alexander , the Prince Royal of Prussia, and all
the Ministers ati•lnding the Congress were present.

circumstance, it is said, has given rise to various ru-
mours, but they are not. specified. Our Ministers

Naples, which probably is intended to lead to an

such unadvised act, raise a storm in their own domi-
nions that would overwhelm them in ruin. Austria

fortunately has nut the pecuniary means to tarry on

An art: -I.,.;...inrerted in the Journal der Debatr,
under the It- al of Carlsruhe, Nov. 8, giving what is
said to he a copy of a letter from the Baron d'Endc
to Mr. Vixanl, our Queen's solicitor, explaining
more fully his reasons fur refusing to carne over to
England. He repeats the pretence of his health
-being very ill—being such as to require his most
serious care ; he then pretends to have discovered, in
a speech of Mr. Brougham, something so very inju-
rious to the memory of the late Grand Duke, his
master, that " he would lose all esteem for himself,
if he could lend himself to a cause in which they
:had dared to blacken so unjustly his late Highness's
noble manner of acting;" and he sums up with
saying, that at any rate the testimony he could give
would not be of that use to her Majesty which it is
supposed. If that testimony could have injured her,
who imagines that Baron d'Ende would have stayed
away ?

Friday an :address of congratulation, voted at a
numerous meeting in the Pariah Church of Ham-
mersmith, on Thursday last, to the Queen, was pre-
sented to her Majesty. This meeting, at which the
churchwarden, Mr. Gomme presided, was must
respectably attended.
An article in the French papers, dated Urassels,
Nov. 8, says, " The famous Franklin or. Forbes, has
taken refuge in the territory of France."
The ward of Furriugdon Within is to meet this
week, for the purpose of voting an address of tam-
gratulation to the Queen. A requisition it signing
ter a meeting of Aldersiptte Ward for the sante pur-
pose.
On Saturday Mr. Brougham ,and Mr. Denman
wc•aited upon her Majesty, to consult upon what fur-
ther steps should be taken respecting her application
tin. a Palace, when it was determined that her Ma-
jesty should again write to the Earl of Liverpool,
urging, in still stronger terms, the demand which
had been made under her sanction. This letter was
immediately conveyed to the Earl of Liverpool by
the Hon. Mr. Keppel Craven.
