LONDON:

:.VD.IY, FEBRUARY, 22, 1819.

We have received ilie Paris Papers of Weanealy
last ; and we looked fur them with the more eager.
negs, be^ •• • . rumour prevailed on Friday that in-
teliigent arrived from Paris, stating, that serious
" apprehenswits were entertained by the Physicians of
Louis XVIII. that he was threatened with mortifies.
lior in the legs. Symptoms of the kind had Manifested
theinsk.- yes, and all their efforts were employed to avert
t: L ent .danger." The journals, however, are
entirely silent upon the subject; we trust, therefore,
that the report was unfounded. We are the more in-
clinnal to believe so, because we have also re:civet:
letters from Paris of the 15th, 10th, and 17th inst
and none of them convey any intelligence of the above
description. The King, indeed, has been seriously in-
di.pated ; but nu inuoedilte danger was entertained. '

The fullowing are extracts from the Paptrs :

"The adjourned debate on the fixatioa of the rinnn-

" This Article was adopted (by Members rising and
leeping seats) by a feeble majority.
