SUNDAY. JANUARY 25.
The Paris• Papers of Sunday have arrived. Their
eutstents arc important, as manifesting a spirit of
independence in the Chamber of Deputies,. that
must make a very strong and favourable impression
throughout France. The Ministers, much too
aonfident in their strength, are determined on pro-
posing and carrying the project of a law for altering
the Law of Elections. Against this measure, peti-
tions have Leen presented from various departments,
but these were treated by the Ministerialists with
ridicule, because they stare only signed by about
10,000 persons, The Opposition, however, con-
tended, that they were fortified by the Constitution,
as any alteration in the Law of Election would be a.
direct violation of the Charter.—These petitions
were referred to a Committee, and a report having
been drawn up, M. Mcstadier, as the Chairman,
presented the report, and endeavoured to show that
the petitions were prepared by the factious, a cant
phrase, in fact, in most countries, applied_ to those
who propose measurer not perfectly in unison with
the projects of Ministers, however arbitrary or hos-
tile these latter may be to the feelings of the people.
The recommendation of the Committee, to whom
these important petitions were referred, 'was, that
the Chamber should pass to the Order of the Day.
Upon this motion an animated debate took place,
and was continued till the following day, when the
Ministers, on a division, had only a miserable majo-
rity. with all their influence, of five. This• was
decidedly a defog; as there was never before so
numerous a Meeting of Deputies. The nnmber
that voted was 229, and the whole Chamber con-
sists only of £sB' Members. The announcement of
the numbers was received with acclamation by the
strangers present, but the popular ebullition was
silenced by a threat of their being turned out.
Should the Minister persist, he will find himself in
a minority, and therefore he must abandon his place
or his plan. 'rho Opposition, at all events, have
gained a triumph worthy of so good a cause.
The great work of charity goes on in France,
but not so extensively as•with us in England. The
Duchess of Angouleme has sent 1,000 francs to the
Protestant Consistory of the Augsburg Confession,
to be distributed amongst their poor during this
rigorous season. The Duke of Angoilleme has also
sent a donation of 1,000 francs in aid of the poor
of the first arrondissement of Paris ; and the Com-
pany of Canals in that city have determined, that
the product of the tolls taken from skaiters on the
Canals, shall he distributed among the poor of La
V ilctte, in bread, meat, fuel, clothing, and money.
French Funds.—Five per Cents., 72f. 30c.;
Bank Stock, 1,422 f 50c..

The Paris Papers of Saturday last are almost I
entirely occupied with reports in the Chamber of
Deputies on Friday. A number of reports were
brought up from the Committees on Petitions;
among others, a report on one hundred and thirty-
nine Petitions,. signed by 19,057 individuals, all
praying that no change might be permitted in the
Charter 411 the Law of Elections. These Petitions
gave rise to an animated, if not an angry discussion.
M. Pasquier. Minister of Foreign Afrairs, asMinister
of the King, pronounced them unconstitutional, and
as a Deputy, moved the Order of the Day. M. De
Cevelles spoke against the alterations proposed in
the Law of Elections by Ministers, which he pro-
nounced not a reform, but a total subversion of the
Charter. It was not only the present Petitioners,
but Thirty Millions of Petitioners, he said, would
tlanoustratc against the measure. Other Deputies
