" PARIS, FEB. W.—The image of our Saviour has
been removed from all the apartments of the Palais de
Justice. At six o'clock in the morning three blacksmiths
were employed in removing the fleurs-de-lis from the iron
gates of the Palais de Justice. They have likewise been
removed from all the other places inside of the Palais,
where they had hitherto been suffered to remain.
" The Cure of St. Germain l'Auxerrois has already un-
dergone some interrogatories. This ecclesiastic endea-
vours to excuse himself by alleging that persons of im-
portance came to him to persuade him to celebrate the
service in honour of the Duke of Berri ; that he declared
he could not comply with their desire till he should have
received orders from his superiors ; and that on the same
day these orders were given him by the Archbishop of
Paris.

" The Germ in papers do not confirm the insurrection
in Bavaria, announced by a correspondent of the Cunstitu-
tionnel. The Journal of Frankfort says, that the King
of Bavaria had caused the deputation of Wurtzburg to be
informed that it would not be received.
" PERIGUEUX, FEE. 14.-General Espinosa arrived
hers to-day from Bergerac. General Mina is expected
this evening from the same place."

EXTRACT OF A LETTER SENT FROM LONDON, DATED 23D
OR 25m OF JANUARY.
" It should be repeated every where, that the Powers
are arming to re-establish the legitimate Princes ; tha.: ac-
credited agents of the principal Powers are with King
Charles ; that King Charles has taken on himself the
guardianship of King Henry, his son. The people must
be roused with reports of war; they must be told that
they will have neither peace, repose, commerce, nor pro.
sperity, until the return of a dynasty which for 15 years
catne.l their prosperity and happiness ; they must dwell
on the comparison of the state of France before and during
the latter revolution ; that they know not vhat engagements
the Duke d'Orleans has secretly formed with the King; that
he holds power that the factious and turbulent who have
overturned the throne and the altar may not seize on it.
This will not prevent you from showing at the same time
to the real Royalists the horror and indignation which
should be inspired by a Prince enriched by the spoils of
his legitimate King. Paint to them in their real colours
the perfidy of his usurpation. This mode will have the
effect of alienating from this Duke the rebels, who will
see in him but the traitor ; at the same time, of sustain-
ing the hopes of the Royalists, without attaching them to
the man who cannot long occupy the throne which usurpa-
tion has given to him. The Liberal journals will serve
you wonderfully.
" The conduct of the clergy is not whai it ought to be
after such benefits ; its action appears paralyzed ; it is de-
sirable that it should oppose a resistance more general and
more firm to the new Powers—that secret conferences
shculd be employed to show the odium of this usurpation.
Religion is lost if legitimate sovereigns perish. The
clergy will be almost destitute of those benefits which
it received from the munificence of the King. Do
not fear to employ republican ideas to undermine
the intrusive Government—good will result from the
abuse of these ideas. France unwilling to have a re-
public, Europe proscribing it, there can be no danger in our
employing them against this new monarchy. it that
can destroy it is excellent. Even the agitators work for
us. Leave them to re-create, or rather cr::ate, a party for
Napoleon 11. We know that Austria will never give him
up. It is an excellent mode of attack. The affairs of
Belgium will necessarily lead to a catastrophe : we must
be ready to profit by it. The Government of the King has
rallied so many interests, that it is impossible but that a
re-action must take place when the question shall be on
the point of being solved.
46 Every exertion must be made to dissolve the Na-
tional Guard. Use must be maths of the wearisome-
ness inspired by the perpetuity of this service, and the
expenses it imposes, and the fea:. it excites of being carried
from their homes. No disquiet need be entertained as re-
gards the army.
" Above all, care must be taken to represent every thing
now existing as only provisional. D'Orleans has with him
neither the Foreign Powers—nor the Royalists—nor the
Republicans—nor the multitude.
" Establish the belief that nothing is finished—let the
South fancy the North in insurrection—let the North be-
lieve the South insurgent. The Journals that have been
paid by the King must still serve him. Act more openly,
inasmuch as is possible, without compromise. If the
nation believe in the stability of this new order of things,
all would be lost. Act! act ! you will be lost by inaction!',
(Correspondence of the Messager.)
4‘ ST. ESPRIT-BAYONNE (Lower Pyrenees), FEB. 14,--
Spain is rapidly arming all its frontier towns, which receive
reinforcements of troops from the militia, the recruiting of
which is going on with great activity. It is affirmed,
however, that the Spanish nation wishes for peace. El
Pastor is still at Combo. No other Spanish chief shows
, himself.
1 " PONT BE BEAtivorsisr, Faa. 12.—We are on the
best terms with the Spanish authorities. The Governor
has expressly recommended that any of our National Guards
