The obstruction offered to -passengers through
St. James's Park, on the plea of some new offi-
cial order issued to the sentries, is becoming a
grievance of no smell magnitude. It appears
that even if a gentleman has papers in his hand,
or a lady that foolish hut innoxious article, called
a reticule, they are actually told by the Guards,
that they " must not go through the Park !" We
challenge any hanger-on of the Horse Guards or
the Palaces to come forward and confess himself

the limbor of such a regulation. It is utterly
iltopossible, if England be not turned upside
down, that a hindrance ,so offensive, so useless,
and so childish, could have come viithin the spi-
rit of an order countenanced by any grown man

or woman, who was duly empowered to meddle

with the management of these great public ac-
commodations, so long and peaceably enjoyed by
the inhabitants of London, and so necessary
to their comfort and their health. lf a packet
of papers be inadmissible, then official papers
tied in parcels, or enclosed in boxes, may be
;refused admittance; for the sentry may not be
'' scholar" enough to read, and must not take
the word ofa messenger whose person is unknown
to him. Again—is an umbrella a prohibited
article ? ore lady's parasol ? or a shawl carried

in the hand on n hot day? We have the charity
to believe that the nuisance has arisen from mis-
interpretation, by some blockhead, of the com-
mands of his superior, if indeed persons of stye.
rior rank ever trouble themselves with matters
of such pitiful detail; and that now the imper.
tinence is made known through tire newspapers,
immediate redress will be afforded. At all events,
we have a right to ascertain who it is that has
thus wantonly interfered with the innocent plea.
sures, and essential communications of our fellow
citizens.

French Papers to the 7th inst.• and the .Etoile
of Saturday reached us last night by Express.--
On Friday last, after. Mass, then new Ministers,
if they may he so called, were presented to the
King by M. 'de \Thiele, and took the oath of
office before his Majesty. Their appointment
has created much displeasure amongst the Ultras,
who see themselves shut out from the very hope
of regaining office, which till now they had nut
entirely lost. The Liberals express great indif-
ference on the subject. " It is not necessary,"
says the Constitutionnel, " to enter into a long
examination to perceive that this mutation is
wholly insignificant, and that the charter end our
liberties have no interest in this Ministerial change
of places. The Council of Ministers acquires no
celebrated name, no person invested with Per-
Famentary renown ; and nothing is more similar
to the Council of this day than that of yesterday.
It.is merely a family affair, a negociation be-
tween friends, and does not deserve that any
one should take the trouble of looking out of
the window to see the new elect pass by." The
Quotidienne is more deeply affected. It begins
by stating, that " the first fact to be established
is, that the Ministry is not changed. New Illittie9
tray be sueti on the list, but the spirit of the
Administration and the inconveniences attend-
ing its position are still the same. It would
appear that Mr. de \Thiele, neglecting public
opinion, the wants of Royalist society, and
Eris owe interests as a Minister, only thought
of creating for himself more absolute autho-
rity in the interior of the Council." The
same Paper also blames the removal of indivi-
dash! from Departments with the business of
which they -had grown acquainted to others of
which they knew nothing, and laments that M.
de Villele should have lost the only opportunity
which offered " to heal the greatest evil which
afflicted society, viz. the divisiou existing
amonvt the Royalists, sod produced by the
weakness and uncertaio tnerch of the. Ministry."
The Journal (Ics Mbats is the most violent of all,
and begins its observatimis by exclaiming, tt
of the estonishment of the wise, the anger of the
ambitious, the stupor of believers, and the joy of
enemies when they read in the Montleur the no-
mination of the new NI inisterm!" There is no
doubt At pil.gei,it that the schism between the,
Ministers its the Li Itras is complete, and that.
the war waged between them in the next Session
will he as open and determined as that which the
Liberals carried on in the days of their power.
