THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday
The PRINCE PRESIDENT left, Lyons for Grenoble
at eight o'clock in the morning of the 21st. He re-
ceived at his departure as at his arrival, and as during
his stay, striking marks of the affection of the Lyons
people.
Everywhere on his passage, and as far as the limits
of the department, the PRINCE was saluted by accla-
matione of " Vive l'Empereur !" Notwithstanding
the rain which fell at the time, an enormous crowd
was collected to bid him adieu.
The PRINCE made his entry into the department
of the Isere at a quarter past nine in the midst of an
immense concourse of the population. The principal
authorities, the President of the Ccuncil• General, the
deputies, and the mayor of Vienne, and the old
soldiers of the grand army, received him at Sr. Priest,
in front of a magnificent triumphal arch, which
marked the limit of the department. The mast ener-
getic cries of " Vive l'Eenpereur !" greeted him on
his passage. Everywhere, at S Laurent-de-Mure,
La Verpilliere, La Greve, nd Bourgein, the PRINCE
was received with the liveliest enthusiasm.
There is an article in the Presse on the subject of
the decree which has appeared in the Monitenr,
raising the duty on Belge;n coal. This journal ex-
presses regret at the difference that has arisen
between the two countries, and anticipates immediate
reprisals on the part of the Belgian Government.
Belgium, it says, must be the greater sufferer of the
two, as she has exported to France annually products
to the amount of 177 millions of francs, whereas
Prance exports to Belgium only to the amount of 134
millions; but on the other hand the exports of French
Wines and other products for Belgium were annually
increasing, and this branch of French commerce will
now be materially checked.
An article appears in the Pays on the death of the
Duke of WELLINGTON, remarkable as manifesting a
better spirit than that which was exhibited in a former
article. The Pays says:—
"England has lost, in the person of the Duke of Wel-
lington, a great captain and a great citizen. It is for her
to render homage to his memory, and we honour, even
in its exaggeration, that national sentiment which
inspires in our neighbours that unanimity of re•
gret and praises with which it surrounds the
yet open tomb of this illustrious man. In
leaving to his country the care of pronouncing
hie panegyric, and to history that of appreciating
the eminent qualities which distinguished him as a war-
rior, we shall only call to mind a merit of that illustrious
and long career, which is perhaps less known, and point
Out the salutary influence which the Duke of Wellington
exercised in the councils of his country with regard to
its foreign relations. That veteran of battle-fields ap-
preciated better than any one the advantages of a con-
ciliatory and pacific policy, and we only render him jus-
tice in saying that he showed himself OR every occa-
sion the decided partisan of everything that could
Maintain and consolidate good relations between France
and England. The French Embassy was accustomed
to find in him the most courteous behaviour,
and he never ceased to use the considerable influence
Which he exercised over the decisions of his Govern-
ment and over public opinion, in order to remove any
causes of dissent which might arise between the
two countries. Endowed with an eminently just and
Upright mind, the Duke of Wellington judged of the
acts of the 2d December as history itself will judge of
them; and in his unshakeable good sense, he has never
hesitated to admit, and loudly proclaim, in Louis Napo-
leon, the saviour of European order, as well as of French
society. He lately deferred his departure from London
it, order to go to the French Embassy, and join in the
celebration of our fete of the 15th August, and he was
heard to express his regret that it had not fallen to him
to propose the health of the Prince President. The
duke of Wellington, from a conscientious feeling, has
raised himself above his own souvenirs. Atter having
been the opponent of the Emperor, he knew how to ad-
'nit in his heir one of those necessary men whose mis-
Ilion it would be as impossible to dispute as it would be
impolitic to shackle."
We have alluded (says Galignani) to a statement
in the Cologne Gazette pretending to be an account
of a report presented by a commission to the Germanic
Diet on the means which it would have to resist
Prance in the event of a war. In the notice that we
gave of this statement we observed that the Cologne
Gazette furnished us with no authority for attaching
Credit to it. The Presse comments upon it rather
seriously, but at the same time points out more than
sufficient inaccuracies and inconsistencies to create
doubts of the authenticity of every part of the state-
Inent. The Cologne Gazette, for instance, makes the
federal commissioners state that the French army is
at this moment 500,000 strong, whereas it has been
officially stated by General MAGNAN at 400,000, and
also makes them underrate considerably the force
of the Germanic Diet. The commission having, ac-
cording to the Cologne Gazette, recommended
an augmentation of the army in Germany, the
Presse expresses a hope that this will not prevent the
French Government from reducing its own army, for,
in the opinion of the Presse, war is impossible, and
the groundless fears of one State driving it to a fool-
ish expenditure is no reason why another should fol-
low the example. It recommends the French Go-
vernment to take a very different course, and expresses
a belief that the example of reduction would be ge-
nerally followed. It says, " The nation which should
first enter in this course would, at the same time that
it should give a proof of its confidence in the future,
acquire so many elements of progress and prosperity
that other nations, on pain of declining, would imme-
diately conform to the new state of things which that
nation had had the glory of proclaiming. We are
desirous of this glory for France?' Without falling
into the amiable dreams of the Peace Society, one can-
not but desire that the experiment recommended by
the Presse should be tried within safe and reason-
able limits. There is something alarming, one might
almost say absurd, and it would be thought absurd if
nations were more enlightened, in devoting all the re-
sources obtained by peace to preparations for war.
YA a different course how many burthens would be
reduced and at the same time how much would be
Obtained by Governments from the natural resources
of
their States, even when these burthens had been
reeduced for internal improvements, for the encou-
ragement of industry and the reward of art. For
, 7s, what is necessary ? A corresponding reduction
armies and fleets, still leaving to each State its
:Illative force, whereas now every country adds to its
national debt by increased expenditure, and keeps up
_e
alarm which paralyzes industry and deters men
frra those useful enterprises which can only be un-
dertaken under the guarantee of a lasting peace.
