any domestic intelligence. The Quolidienne
gives an account, perhaps worth noticing, of a
ceremony performed by the Count d'Artois on
Holy Thursday :--" At ten o'clock ilk the morn-
ing, an altar was raised in that part of the Tuil-
leries calle'd the Gallery of Diana. Before this
altar were placed tw'blve children, dressed in
scarlet, to represent the twelve Apostles, seated
at a table served with fast dishes, crowned with
flowers, and a decanter of wine and a piece of
bread to each of the thirteen dishes. The Count
d'Artois, acting for the King, now proceeded to
wash the 'feet of the children, whilst the Duke
of Angouleme waited on them at table. The
Archbishop of Arles officiated, and the Vicar-
General, Abb6 Feutrier, preached an eulogy
upon the beneficence, goodness, and Christian
humility of the Princes." Upon the foregoing
scene the Quotidienne, whiciris,..-in a great mea-
sure, the organ of the missionary:priests in France,
has the following observations'n-L" Never, with-
out a lively religious emotion, have we to relate
to our readers the details of the Holy Supper, of
which the Kings of France have preserved the
pious usage. This ceremony presents to us the
Royal Majesty bowing itself to the name of re-
ligion, and Princes making themselves the servants
of the poor, after the example of the Divine Le-
gislator, who alone has taught the world how the
great ones of the earth may humble themselves
without fearing to raise the pride of the little.
The ceremony of the washing of the feet,
performed by a King of France, is the most
touching example of that admirable equality
[the original is in italics] which is to be
found only in the Christian religion, and
which, leaving each man in the place which so-
ciety or God himself has assigned him, still ap-
proximates him to the lowest ranks, and gives
the more dignity in proportion as he seems to
humble himself." Upon the ceremony itself, to-
leration and delicacy forbid any observation.
But what a specimen of cant and mockery the
emarks which we have just quoted !
[MORNING POST.]
We received, by express, last night, the Paris
Papers to the ith instant, the contents of which
are of some importance. It appears that a sei-
zure was made in the French capital, on the sth,
'of a quantity of secreted arms, consisting of
twenty-seven cases, containing 550 muskets, a
great number of bayonets, 300 pistols, and 100
swords for infantry. From this discovery, we
fear it may reasonably be inferred, that notwith-
standing the tranquillity which prevails in Paris,
the plans of the disaffected are not relinquished,
and that the means which they possess for carry-
ing them into execution are far from being of a
contemptible nature. From Spain too, the intelli-
gence is of an unpleasant description. The late
disturbances at Valencia appear to have present-
ed for a time an aspect the most fearful. The
2d regiment of artillery having become obnoxious
to the people, was followed to its quarters by
great numbers, who called out " Long live
the Nation'!"—" Long live Itiego !" Those
cries were repeated before the house of the
Colonel, when the sentries by whom it was
guarded attacked the crowd with their sabres.
Part of the regiment then turned round and fired
on the people, whilst others used the butt-ends of
their muskets. The result was the loss of several
lives on the part of the multitude, which had no
means of defence. The municipality of Valen-
tia immediately sent a petition to the Cortes,
and an Address to the 'King, praying that the
offending regiment might not only be removed,
but disbanded. The Cortes apppointed a Com-
mission to inquire into the subject, and though
its report had been received, no definitive mea-
sure had yet been adopted. Letters from Cadiz
state, that a frigate in ballast had arrived from
Callao with three - hundred Officers and Civil
Functionaries on board, who had been allowed
to leave that place in consequence of a capitula-
tion with the Independents. General St. Mar-
tin was reported to be dangerously

[BRITISH PRESS.]
The Paris Papers of Friday, relying upon the
character of their intelligence from Vienna and
other parts of Germany, continue to speak of a
war in the East as certain. They do not, in-
deed, announce the actual declaration of war,
or the encounter of the hostile armies ; but
they notice the formidable state of preparation
in which both parties are to be found, and
venture even to. communicate some of the in-
structions which the Porte is said to have is-
sued to the advanced divisions of the Ottoman
army. A rabble of Bosniaks, Yourocks, and
Albanians, who, when assembled together, will
probably be dignified with the name of an army,
have formed a camp near Nyssa, and these have
been directed, in the event of a war, to occupy
Upper Wallachia. Now we find it stated that
tbe warlike intentions of the Divan had been
communicated with all possible dispatch to every
part of the Ottoman empire, and it is to be
apprehended that when the tidings reach this
assemblage bf persons in the camp at Nyssa,
they will think it expedient •to effect the in-
structions of the Porte without delay, and their
impetuous courage may, without the direct com-
mand of the Divan, expedite the commencement
of hostilities. The Grand Vizir is spoken of as
having taken the field, and commenced the march
of his principal force in two columns, one by So-
phia and the other by Scoumela. The numerical
strength of this army is not noticed, nor is the
point stated from whence it commenced its march.
An army had been collected in the vicinity of
Adrianople, and if the Grand Vizir has actually
taken the field, it is probable that this is the army
which he commands.
