gPIRIT OP THE PUBLIC JOURNALS.

At length the once Royal Family of l'?ritrice are
arrived on our shores. They arrived off Portsmouth
*t. bout two o'clock on Tuesday. The 'King, con-
trary to former reports, is described as putting on ti
cheerful espect: in another Journal, however, he is
said to have appeared disconsolate. The Duchess of
Angouleme is said to he absorbed in grief. The
Duchess of Berri, with her ill-starred children,
complete the wretched group. Perhaps she would
have done better to retire to Naples, to her father's
Court I she has committed no crime. With respect
to the Uoutbons, the chiefs of the family, though
the sight or near approach of misery is affecting,
strettatmot pity them. We cannot forget their blind
letatuation, springing from insolence and prides—their
cruelty in slaughtering the inhabitants of Paris. These
things will rise to our view whenever our minds seem
disposed to sympathise in their sorrows. It is an un-
doubted troll, that they have been much more kindly
dealt with than they deserve. We suppose they may
be admitted here so far as their convenience requires,
if they wish it, on their passive to another country
their harness cannot contaminate our soil. It is said
that when they arrived at Cowes, Charles X. did not
wish to land till he should hear the detertnitiation of
the English Government,and t hat he forwarded alet ter
to the King of England by some gentlemen of his
suites The Duchess of Angouleme and the Duchess
of Berri, who were suffering from the effects of the
voyage, landed under assumed names, and went to
on hotel at Cowes. What the answer of the King
and Government may be, we do not of course
know, but we take it for granted that they can only
be received as a private family. It is said that they
do not mean to stay here. We are glad of it. But,
limy or go, they have, we presume, nothing more
to expect than tncrti strangers. Polignac is lurid to
be before these criminal victims of his criminal
counsels, in his way to the north. A pretty errand
he has made of it, from Regentsstreet in London,
to the Boulevards in Paris I The; mischief which
he has done, and the easy rapidity with which he
has done It, and the dreadful effects now apparent
in his own flight and that of his master, seem like
objects presented in a dream. • We C,lll hardly think
them real. A kingdom upset, a constitution over-
thrown, a dynasty altered, in less time than would
suffice for taking down a tottering old mansion.
There is a master-hand of folly and wickedness in
this. The Moniteur contains a proelutnation from
the now King, recalling his subjects under the em-
pire of the laws, and recommending to them the
cultivation of peace and quietness. Their task is
easy they have already effected all that is difficult.
His own duties, which are only now commencing,
are laborious and perplexing. We might almost
bt tempted. to infer flom this proclamation, that
-some tendency to disorder was evident, though we
have heard of nothing of the kind. The removal
or reduction of some imposts is promised. We
know of no readier way to win the hearts of sub-
jects than relieving their. from taxation. The pa-
pers of Sunday also contain an tier:mint of u grand
dinner which the Municipality of Paris gave on Su-
n:May last in the Hotel de Ville as u mark of re-
spect to General Lafayette. The banquet was pre-
sided by M. do Laborde, the Prefect of the Seine.
The compsny is stated to have consisted of about
600 individuals, of all ranks, among whom were
sonic of the labouring classes is ho had distinguished
themselves in the memorable conthsts of the latter
days of July. A correspondence between Charles
X. and Prince Papa; and all the plans of the
Late Government for completing the counter-revolu-
tion they had begun, it is said, have been disco•
vered in secret drawers iu the office for Foreign
Affairs. These documeuts wilt he made use of on the
trial of the Ministers. The assemblages of parties
of workmen in different quarters of Paris, of which
some notice was taken in preceding Paris papers,
had for their object hostility to machinery and the
employment of foreigners. On these subjects the
journeymen artisans mid manufacturers in France al,
pear to be still as much wider the influence of pre-
judice AS the lalionting classes of any other couture.
M. C. Duplo. has !Wrestled -some sound advice to
them, and about 400 who repaired on Saturday to
the Prefecture of the Police, to complain of the
encouragement given to foreign workmen, are stated
to have listened to counsel of M. Grind des
and retired peecrably. Nit disorder, it i 3 raid, tool;
place. It is stated in the Journal des Debuts, that
the Russian Ambassador, M. Pozzo di forgo, had
an interview with this King at nine o'c;ock on Sas
turday evening.—Tinics.
At the County of Sussex Election, on Wednes-
day the 11th inst., Rewording to the report in the
Prighipit Guardian, the candidetee seem to have
plutaken of the genet el liberality of the period. Mr.
Burrell, speaking of the recent Revolution in thence
observed—

I will not go into the polities of is neighbouring king.
shun, but I must be permitted to say that a more wends.
WlNllitOlus, and unprincipled attack upon the liberties
of th►t Press and the rights of the aohject than that recently
made by Charlea X. is not upon recoil'. I hope that the•
weak Monarch is by this time expelled that country, the
capital of which his baseness and treachery have (kluged
with native blood ; and I rejoice to find that no one in
power in this country has ventured to jtettify his wicked
proceedings. I diode to the uff.tirs of France, In order to
express to you my opinion that England has no right to
interfere ; and if elected by you, I here publicly pledge
mid! never to vote for it war, the ohj.rt of which al►all be
to restore a guilty race to the Throne of France.—(Cheers.)

the Ballot. As regards Universal Suffrage and
Annual Parliament., I am fixed ; but as regoirdo Elec.

-(Murmurs from the farmers.)-...At present, I am op.
posed to that; but I am open to Argument in its favour.
I AM an advorate for the greatest possible reduction of
taxation.—(Cheers.)—l ant aware that the Government
esnnot go on without money ; and therefore I would not,
because nosucenalul in my opposition on one ,point, join
in a faction* hosti►ity against Ministers. I will never be

but I will never support them in any attempt they may

Improperly. If honoured by your choice, I will fearlessly
do my duty by all, Gentlemen, I concur in all the, has
fallen from Mr. Burrell on the 'object of Fushun, Never
will louden a war for the restoration of that bunch of
the Bourbons.

Ct would appear that Mr. Curteis Was even
obliged in deference to the farmers, who murmured
at his indisposition to the ballot, to express that
he was open to argument in its favour'. Far-
mere, of all people, are the most exposed to
suffering from the exercise of the franchise; and a
proposition to have recourse to the ballot has only to
be proposed to them to be at tame popular. The
Yeomanry throughout the country are at present
unquestionably in that frame of mind„ that if due
pains were taken by such society as that in France,
ureter the name of Aide 1044 le Cid taidera, to
I')rranize and marshal them, we might calculate on
