THY ruxne.
The express from Paris this morning Continuo' to be o
a warlike description, and corroborates our city ar-'
tide of yesterday, stating that a Belgian Deputy had arrived
at Paris, but his mission had not transpired ; also the
movement" of the Russian and Prussian armies. We cer-
tainly should have doubted all these hostile preparations,
and suspected they were paragraphs for stock-jobbing pur.
poses ; but their coming from so many various quarters,
as well as the official order from the Emperor of Russia,
teceived some days since, for the assembling of Isis troops,
and their inarthing, briags to onr mind the old adage—
" No smoke without fire."
We also learn from Frankfort that the German Confe-
deration; no doubt on the reclamation of the King of
Holland, have resolved to occupy the Grand Duchy by
her troops ; and it is added that this resolution on the
part of the Diet was unanimous. A French Paper, re-
ceived this morning, Makes the following remark :—" Can
one suppose that, in the presence of these facts, and in
the presence of a Prussian tinny, ready to execute on their
part the decision of the Diet, that the French Govern-.
merit will nut take such measures to cause her non-inter-
vention to be respected." The above is corroborated by
the great exertions which Marshal Sault, the French Mi-
nister of War, is making; also by an order for the various
officers at Paris to leave immediately, to join their
respective corps. At the same time we must observe,
that all these grand military movements on the Continent
may soon vanish like smoke in the air, when the Northern
Powers receive the information of the change in our Mini-
stry, who are in strict unison with the French: Go-
vernment to maintain peace in Europe; therefore it can-
not be 'opposed for a moment that these Powers with-
out the consent of England and France will or can take
the field ; first, their own dynasty is at stake ; second, the
great nerve and sinue of war fails theta— money ; and
before Russia can come into action, France will have in
the field a million of men.

The alarm of war on the Continent has not had any
effect on the Funds, on the',contrary, they have improved ;
but this was owing to the Chancery having purchased
against the shutting of Console on Thursday. The lowest

ROYAL SOCIETY.-(THIS DAY.)

ELECTION FOR PRESIDENT.

This being the day appointed by the Charter of the
Royal Society fur the election of a President and Council
of this distinguished body, the Society's Rooms at Somer-
set-house presented an unusually-active appearance. The
more importance was attached to this election, as it was
given out that his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex
would be nominated to fill the Chair, which has become
*scant by the resignation of Davies 'Gilbert, Esq., /M.P.
A strong contest was expected, many of the scientific mem-
bers being in favour of Dr. Herschel, while an apparently
equal stronglody gave their interest on behalf of his Royal
Highness. The charges brought against the Society by
Sir J. Smith, the President of the Astronomical Society,
gave an additional interest to the proceedings, 'as the Re-
formists have expressed their resolution to support no Fel-
low for the Council whd would not' pledge himself to ad-
vocate a reform in the Society.
Long before eleven o'clock, the hour at which the• Chair
is taken by the Charter, the Meeting-rooms and anti-rooms
were crowded to excess. Of the WO Fellows resident In
England, there could not have been less than 500 who at-
tended to give their votes; sod this number embraced, we
may without hesitation say, every man eminent in science,
not only in the Metropolis, but from the Universities.
Several Bishops were also present, and amongst them the
Archbishop of Canterbury.
At eleven o'clock the Partonawr took the chair, and de-
livered the annual address on these occasions. It detailed
the progress of science, in connection with the Society's
proceedings, at home and abroad, during the past year,
and was perhaps remarkable for nothing so much as its
total abstinence of all allusion to existing broils.
The address was received with great marks of satisfac-
tion. At its close the President read the order for the
election of officers, and the ba lot commenced with un-
paralleled ardour on both sides. Amongst those who were
exerting themselves for the Duke of Sussex, were several
more distinguished as belonging to Aristocracy than to
science, whilst in the Herschel party were others eminent
for their scientific attainments.

The first list for the President and other officers • con-
tained the n imes of his !loyal Higher's* the Duke of Sussex
as President ; J. W. Lubbock, Esq. Treasurer ; Dr.
Roget and Mr. Children, as Secretaries. The other list
was the same, with the exception of Dr. Herschel being
nominated as President.

The
,house list for the Council coaiainecl the name' of
Davie* Glbert, Robert Viscount Melville, the Right Hon.
Sir J. Murray, Captain !Cates, M. Farmhy, EN., Dr.
Wilson Philip, Mr. George Reonie; John Pond, Esq.,
Dr. Roget, Henry Ellis, Esq., and Peter Barton, Elm.
The ballot was then carried on actively. Colonel Fitz-
Clarence in and voted—we need not say on whose interest.
The scrutiners are now (three o'clock) making up their
report en the ballot for the members of the Council ; after
it has been returned the election of President will com-
mence, awl the result will not be known until late this
afternoon.—The Duke of Sussex hie been 'ince elected by
a small majority.
