I.F.GiSLATIVE BODY.

„PARIS, .I.—The King entered the Hall of
the Legislative Body at half-past three, preceded
by a Deputation' of the Legislative' Body,.' of 25.
llembers,,who had. been -in waiting for him at
•the foot of the stair 3, accompanied by the Princes
Othe Blood, anti the Marshals of France, who
proceeded to place themselves around the Throne.
The cries of '1 Vive lc Roi !” were universal.—
The acclamations were redoubled when the
King took his seat upon the Throne ; the
most illustrious nobility of France, the .bravest
Generals of the army, the most celeiSrlted'
.Statesmen, the MiniSters, participated the enthu-
iiasm and respect which his presence inSpired.-7-
The acclamations of the AsSetuhly were mingled
with the sound of cannon, the signal of peace,
awl of melodious music playing on the outside.—
Monseigneur', the Chancellor, was at,the feet of
the Kin,' to the left, on a chair. of antique shape;
the Dukes of Angotderne and Orleans standing on.
the' right of his Majesty; the Duke de Berri and
'Prince de Conde on the left. TheLegisiative
.B oily ;were standing. The King was dressed in.
blue, with two epaulettes, the cordon bleu over
his Coat, and a French hat with white feathers.'
His Majesty being seated on the Throne, took off
his bat, put it on again, and, with a firm,"audi-
bie, and sweet voice, pronounced the following
speech : •

" Gr.mrintrN—When.far the first time I come into this

Assembly, sot-rounded by the great Bodies of the State, the
• Representatives of a nation which does'not cease to lavish
upon me the tuost affecting marks of its love, I congratu-
late myself on having become the dispenser of those blcs_
sings which the -Divine Troviderice deign; to grant•to my
• people. ,

" I have made with Austria, Russia, png: ind, and Prussia,
a peace, in which are included their Allies, that is to say, all
the Prince's of Christendom. The w.4r Was universal. The
reconciliation is the same.
" The rank which .France has always held among the na-
tions, has not been transferred to any other, and remains to
it without partition. Every thing which the other 'States
have acquired of security, equa)ly increases hers, and conse-
quently adds 'to her real power. That, therefore, which she ,
does not i'etain of horconquesti, oughtnot to be regarded as.
,a retrenchment of her real strength.
• _" The glory of the French -arms has received no stain; the
monuments of their valour subsist, and the clufs d'iruvres'
of the arts belong to us iii future, by rights more stable and
wore sacred than those of victory.
Tile • channels of commerce, s 6 long clgsed, are. going

to be opened. The market.of France will be no longer the
only one open to thz productions of its soil and its industry.
' Those- for which' habit has created a want, or which are ne-
cessary to the arts which it exercise, will be supplied to her
by the Colonies,which she recovers. She will no longer. be
obliged to deprive herself of them, or to obtain them only
*ion ruiueus terms. Our manufactures are about to retlou-
fish, our maritime cities to revive, and every thing promises
that a long peace ahread,and permanent felicity at home, will
he the happy fruits of the peace. A melancholy recollection,
nevertheless, disturbs rui joy. I was torn, I flattered my-
self that I should remain my whole life, the most faithful
subject of the hest of Kittp, and this day I occupy his place !
But, however, he is not entirely dead ; he lives again in this
testament which he left for the instruction of the august and
'unfortunate C.hild who ought to have reigned before ,me.—
It is with eyes fixed upon this immortal wo•k,it is penetrated
with the sentiments which dictated it; it is guided by the ex-
. perience, anti seconded by the counsels of several among you
that have drawn es the Constitutional Charter %Inch is now
going to be reap, and which is founded upon the solid bases
of the prosperity of the. State. „

" My Chancellear will acquaint you ih detail with my pa-
trrnol intentions."

It would be difficult to describe the profound
emotion, the sentiment of tenderness and grati-
tude, with wr;hic•h the speech of the King
.was
heard, or to give a just idea of the paternall!c-
cent and affecting sensibility with which it was
delivered. Reiterated acclamations, and new
shouts of " Vire le Roi !" btirst forth on every
side.

The King: erdcred the Chancellor of France to
communicate the Constitutional Charter. The most
proff,mici silence prevailed.
The Chancellor theti made a speech of some

length, in 'Mira he' dwelt with force acid elo-
quence upon the principal articles of .the new
Charter, of which a correct copy was gi,eCn
raper of yesterday. The Charter. having been
read, loin!, applause followed, The•Onintsrllpr
hating kneeled again at the foot of 'the Throne,
received orders from the'King, and several „De-
clarations relative to it 3 execution were then an-
nounced.

PARtg Jutln al* assured that a corps
of 1000 , English cavalry. belonging to Lord
Wellington's - army, cvill .proceed through Paris,
for that part ot the. French coast, next to England,
to embark there.
