illustrate the country. Shades of •the Bessleres, of the Bel.-
thiers, of the Laroche Jacquelins, your children more happy
than you have been, will combat under the same colours, and
support the same throne. Their elevation to the same dig-
nities ought to be regarded as the prelude of a sincere recon-
ciliation and durable peace among all Frenchmen.

PROCLAMATION OF HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE
DUKE OF ANGOULEME.
" Inhabitants of the Departments of the South !—The King,
our Soverign and Uncle, being re-established on his throne, and
having signified to Us that the powers which he was pleased to con-
fer on us for the 7th, Bth, gth, loth, and 11th Military Divisions, by
letters patent of the sth of Mardi and the 3rd of June last, ceased
to exist, we are anxious to.express to yon our gratitude for the zeal
and devotion beyond all praise, by which- you have contributed so
efficaciously to the restoration of royal authority.
" We are acquainted with the sentiments which actuate yon ; and
set tain of your fidelity, we again passed the frontiers, and appeared
in your midst, without the support of any foreign authority. French-
men, we came among our dear countrymen surrounded only by
Frenchmen ; we refused all other assistance, we felt happy at keep-
ing at a distance from you. the troops of the Allies, whose coming
your generous constancy rendered u•eless, and whose presence
might have aggravated the too numerous calamities which oppress
our coontry. Unable to procure you all the happiness in the way
of which the late revolt has thrown so many obstacles, we were at
least desirous of spariug yon the more grievous evils.
" The God of our fathers has blessed our intuitions. We have
not taken a single step on the soil of our dear and common country,
without receiving from you mianinions testimonies of an affection
equally strong and genuine for the sacred person of the King.
His Royal Highness then states, that there is not a military
point in his government but what is again tinder the King's authority.
He thanks them for the attachment which they have sliewn to him-
self and the Duchess of Angouleme, and particularly those persons
whom lie had invested with offices, for their assistance io emancipa-
ting the South of Franee.3

TOULON, AUG. 15.—The Marquis de Riviers is negociat-
ing to prevent, if possible, the occupa►ion of Toulon by fo-
reign troops. It appears that General Bianchi insists more
than ever upon this point. Antibes is about to be occupied
by the Allies.

The free corps of Marseilles have committed excesses, and
it will be with much difficulty they will be disarmed. They
refuse to disband, and wilt not buffer dictum:is-es to be dls•
