FRENCH PAPERS.

(From the Journal du Commerce of Saturday.)

PA BIS, SEPT. 3.—The question of the Grand Duchy
of Luxemburg is again revived, as our readers may have
seen from the two documents taken from the Belgian
Journals ; but the following is more seiious t—lt is an-
nounced that on the 30th August, the Diet of the German
Confederation, at Frankfurt, had a Sitting, and that Baron
Munch Rellinghausen, President of tie Diet, and Repre-
sentative of Austria, made a motion, proposing that the
Diet should ir.quire whether it did not become its dignity
to put an end to the provincial situation of the Grand
Duchy; and that it was decided, by a majority of 9 votes
to 8, that there are grounds to occupy the Grand Duchy
by the troops of the German Confederation. Expresses
are to be sent immediately to acquaint the Cabinets of
Vienna and Berlin with this determination.

We find the following article in the Semaphore of Mar-
seilles :—lt is said that, immediately after the resignation
of M. Arnavon, sixty Captains and other officers will also
give theirs. It is also said, that all these resignations are
caused by the reorganization of the National Guard. If
this reorganization should take place, it will be an addi-
tional element of civil war."
The same journal says, is another article—" Let the
Governors refh•ct well ; Marseilles is the point to which
the eyes of the whole south are turned. Let civil war
break out at Marseilles, and it will soon be in the Var
and at Vaucluse, in the Gaud and the Herault. The
Carlists Ire organised—their chiefs are appointed ; they
break out front time to time, to give signs of life to their
adepts, and to feel the ground. The Duchess of Berri is
at Mossa ; Charles the Tenth has just arrived there with a
train of six carriages, if the letters from Genoa speak the
truth. A steasn boat is engaged, ready to put to sea at a
moment's notice; the coasts of Provence are not too welt
guarded, and in many places the exiles of Holyrood would
find friends—thanks to the gentleness of the Director-
General of the Customs. _ _ _

" It is necessary that the southern departments should
be well governed. Men of pure intentions, and well dis.
posed towards the Government, are not sufficient; they
must be east in a mould of brass, and their souls ought to
be as strongly tempered as those of the moat remarkable
citizens of ancient times or of onr days."

(From the Constitutionnel of Saturday.)
BERLIN, Auo 24.—(From the Augsburg Gazette.)
—Yesterday a courier brought the intelligence, that atter
the Poles had been unable to maintain the position on the
Bzura, and had, therefore, abandoned all their entrench-
ments at Blorris, and after the proposal of Skrzynecki to
negociate with the Russians had been baffled t•y the revo-
lutionary party, and the Russians had advanced within a
mile (five miles of Warsaw), the P.dish army ventured,
on the Bth, to leave the city in order to give battle. Before
all the troops had taken their position, a smart action of
cavalry took place, in which the whole of the Polish
cavalry was defeated and bi-ukcn, and driven towards the
city, when a popular tumult ensued—furious bands of
rioters traversed the streets—Generals Jankowski and Bu-
koseski (will had been acquitted of the charge of con-
s' Tracy brought against them) were dragged from their
houses and hanged, and is is said that about 50 persons
lost their lives. The Government found itself compelled
to deprive General Dembinski of the chief command,
which he was, however, obliged to assume again, contrary
to his inclination, a few hours afterwards.

Warsaw is now invested on all sides within the dis-
tance of 2i English miles, and the news of its capitulation
is expected.
The Constitutionnel subjoins a long note, to point out
the discrepancies between this account and the !ever dated
from Warsaw, 17th August, in the Prussian State Ga-
zette, which assigns the 15th and 16th as the days when
the alleged riots took place.
The Messager des Chausbres mentions this article
from the Augsburg Gazette, and adds s—" We learn,
from other German papers, that Prince Czartoryski and
the late General-in-Chief, Skrzyneeki, ate gone to the
Russian camp, and remain there, either b treat, or to
find an asylum against the popular movements, which
overturn their authority."
