Tux REVOLUTION IN FRANCE.—A few days only have
elapsed and a revolution has been effected in France—so
just in its origin, so magnanimous in its progress, and so
splendid in its results, that history cannot produce its
parallel. Be a man ever so British in his principles, his
feelings, and associations—be his partiality for his own
country ever so predominant,he cannot but be struck with
wonder and admiration at the determined, vigorous, and
successful opposition which the French have raised to a
tyranny as reckless at it was unconstitutional.
(From the Carlisle Journal.)

GREAT AND GLORIOUS REVOLUTION IN FRANCE.—III
seven days a tyrant has been hurled from the throne, a
great people have asserted by their blood their right to
freedom, a new dynasty has been established, and peace and
order restored to the cEpital. We trust, however, that the
new Government will not stop until they have brought the
infatuated madman (commonly called a King) Charles
Capet, and his seven Ministers, to the block. Until that
be done there can be no safety to France. While they
exist, the peace of the country must be in constant danger
of being sacrificed. The lesson which the last week has
read to the arbitrary rulers of every nation, is beyond
all value. To our own country it will show the aris-
tocracy the danger of any longer setting themselves
against the freedom and rights of the people, and to the
Ministry it will prove the danger of allowing such block-
heads as Scarlett to tamper with the liberty of the press.
The Revolution in France will advance the cause of Re.
form in England by fifty years. The most dangerous man
in this country, to the reign of the King, and the ex.
iatence of the Aristocracy, is he who would venture to say
that Reform is unnecessary.
(From the Berwick Advertiser.)

We this day lay before our readers a pretty full account
of the Revolution of France. The despot Charles X. has
by his arbitrary measures, in violation of the most sacred
obligations been hurled from a throne of which he was
was never worthy. The Parisians have immortalized
themselves by the vigorous resistance they have made
against tyranny, and in support of national liberty. They
have deserved the thanks and approbation of every friend
of the human race—they have given a most important
lesson to the other European despots, and demonstrated to
the whole world that Kisp are only to be obeyed and en-
dured so long as they act agreeably to law, and no longer.
We rejoice to see th►t the noble conduct of the capital has
been imitated wherever it was known, and that even the
army in which Charles and his besotted and priest-riddea
Ministers chiefly trusted for support in executing their
liberticide measures, has abandoned them. The infatuated
and unfortunate Charles may once more be obliged to take
refuge in this happy island, where, if he had not been
blinded by the absurd and ridiculous notions of the divine
and indefeasible rights of Kings, he might have learned
bow to conduct himself among a people who had long
struggled hard for liberty, and knew how to appreciate it.
(From the Dublin Morning Register.)

Faztron Revoturrox.—The lesson France has given
cannot be lost upon the world. if rulers (ever slow to
learn) are not instructed by it in their real weakness,
people have at least discovered the secret of their strength.
It is now proved that soldiers are no longer liveried but-
chers, to cut the throats of their countrymen at the bidding
of tyrants, for so much a day—and it is made manifest that
undisciplined and unarmed valour, urged on by a sense of
right, will triumph over all the artificial organization of
military di►cipline. The cause of mankind was at stake
the day French blood flowed in the glorious cause of free-
dom. On that day the battle between oligarchy and des-
potism on the one hand, humanity and public rights on
the other, was fought—eternsl gratitude to the brave
French people, tyranny was struck down and liberty—not
to France alone—but the cause of universal liberty
has had a signal and glorious triumph. Had the tyrant
been the victor, there is not a government in Europe which
would not have been emboldened to make fresh inroads
upon liberty. As the people were victors, the people of
every nation in Europe should follow up the success, make
fresh efforts to diminish the impunity of the powerfel, and
secure the exercise of popular rights. The Bourbons ex-
pelled from Francs, will the base Ferdinand be long per-
mated to infest Spain with the infamy of his misrule? is
there no litnp-post in Lisbon destined to exhibit the fero-
sinus Miguel—infamous in life, but in death an example
to tyrants, and calculated to make hearts know fear which
never knew compunction? The glorious example of
France may, perhaps, restrain rulers also. England her-
self may never have to endure (and tamely did England
endure) the experiment of another Manchester massacre.
In Ireland, too, it may be found convenient to modify the
plundering vestry hill, anal the murderous sub-letting act.
(From the Elgin Courier )

Itsvourrtorz isr FRANCE.—..The interest attached to
home politics has, within the last few days, been in a
great meusnre absorbed in that excited by the intelligence
received from France. It is more than probable that at
the moment at which we write, that country is the scene
of horror and of bloodshed. If it be not so ; if an nut-
raged people have been so far able to repress their feelings,
neither Charles nor his Ministry are to thank fur it. In
plain terms, the French King has by one blow annihilated
the charter ! It now exits only as matter of history,—
Oho would have thought that this would have been a suf-
ficiently hold action even had he obtained the concurrence
of the Chambers previous to his performing it ; but to
have done it in scornful defiance alike of the Legislature,
his subjects, and of his own most solemn oath to uphold

the Constitution, is, we hold, not only the essence of cri-
minality, but the ne plus ultra of infatuation. Even the
former history of Bourbon folly and rashness affords, in
all the circumstances of the case, no parallel to it. It is
in effect proclaiming to France and the world, that Charles
the Tenth knows no other law or rule of conduct in the
government of his kingdom, than his own royal pleasure.
France, in the second quarter of the nineteenth century, is
not the proper meridian for such monstrous doctrine.
(From the lowness Courier.)

Who can wonder that a gallant and spirited people
flew to arms to avenge themselves on a despot whose arbi-
trary principles can only be exceeded by his ingratitude
and imbecility ? We do hope, however, that our own
government will not meddle with the French, and that the
French King will keep far frmn our shores. Let them
fight single-handed, as Britain fought, the good fight of
their political redemption,-and, above all, let them beware
how they again trust a Bourbon on the throne. France
has within the last fifty years passed through the ordeal en-
tailed upon England by the Stuarts. She has had a
monarch beheaded, like our Charles 1.--a military despo-
tism under Napoleon which matched the usurpation of
Cromwell—and a restoration in the person of Louis
XVIII. which may be compared with the return of the
exiled Charles 11. One more struggle yet awaits her to
complete tee parallel—a revolution which shall bring order
and freedom out of chaos and anarchy, and establish her
constitution on a sound and lasting basis. Can we not
recognize in the present awful crisis, the seeds of this
glorious c,oueummation?

(From the Caledonian Mercury.)

The annals of the world do not present so great a moral
lesson of the speedy and condign punishment of a royal
traitor. It is impossible to refrain from admiring the
heroic bravery and civil courage which the citizens of
Paris have exhibited in equal propirtions en the present
()evasion, and which we are satisfied the inhabitants of no
other city in Europe could have shown. The readiness,
too, with which a Provisional Government was organised,
stoma that this was not a revolution of the mob, with
pillage and robbery in prospect ; and we may be satisfied,
from the prudent conduct which has always distinguished
the Doke of °ileum; since his return to France, that he
would not so readily have accepted the proffered Regency,
if he hail not been satisied that " the game was entirely
up" with Charles X., and that if he did not accept, he
would share in the proscription which awaited the reign-
ing branch of his family. All the accounts which have
reached us from other parts of France prove that the
whole nation is actuated by one spirit.

(From the Aberdeen Observer.)

The doctrine of the French Ministers finds grace in the
eyes of every despot, anti the King of France has accord-
ingly issued an ordinance suspending the liberty of the
pOl4 and no political publication is to be permitted with-
,tut the King's authority, and even after the authority is
re
granted, it may at any after period be withdrawn. By
Another ordinance the Chamber of Deputies is again dis-
solved—the election laws are changed, and the elective
franchise taken from the greater part of those who for-
merly enjoyed It. By these arbitrary proceedings it is
evident that a limited monarchy is icnverted into a pure
despotism—that the Constitution is subverted by the King
—.and thtt all Constitutional restraints, anti legal limita.
tions of power, are at an end. When intelligence of these
extraordinary proceedings reached this country, all eyes
were fixed on France, and there was the utmost anxiety
to know if the French would tamely submit to these
sults, or tratnple in the dust the absolute authority as.
sumed by this bigotted despot. The inhabitants of Paris,
we rejoice to say, have contemned the King's authority,

and displayed a noble enthusiasm in the 0111116 of freedom,
They hare flown to arms in defence of their liberties, and
driven the despot from the capital. -Paris has been the
seem) of tumult, civil war, and bloodshed, and the na-
tional guards, and many of the King's troops have risked
their lives in defence of the liberties of their country. The
King has fled, accompanied by some of his troops, and
such is the general feeling of France that it may be pre-
sumed that the reign of Charles the Tenth is at an end,
Such is the effect of infatuation and folly not to be paral-
leled in history.
