KING OF FRANCE'S SPEECH.

By our Express from Paris, we learn that it

will be impossible for a complete copy of the

relict' King's Speech to reach as before a late

Flour this evening.

Our Paris Correspondent, however, assures us

that this very importuut Royal Document is of

the most pacific description.
Et states, that HIS MOST CHRISTIAN MAJESTY

maintains the most strict and sincere friendship

with all his Allies, and that he hopes, with the

favour of Divine Providence, to preserve for
his dominions the blessing of Peace.
It promises the recal of the Army from Spain

as soon as the state of that country shall per-

mit such a measure with safety to Spain herself ;
and his MAJESTY further adds, that in every

thing relating to this question he will go hand in
hand with his Allies.

By the same Express we have received the
Eloile of yesterday, and Ga Messenger,
from which we subjoin extracts :____
