gladdened its social halls.

M. THIERS' note of the Bth of July is the sub-
ject of general discussion in the Paris Journals of
Tuesday. The Constitutionnel has a long article
upon it, which, proceeding from the pen of the Pre-
sident of the Council, or some person enjoying his
entire confidence, is well worthy of most earnest
attention. We propose quoting the whole of it.
The first part shows the actual position of the
Minister with regard to France when the treaty of
the 15th of :July was signed. We place it first
before our readers :

" There is, in France, a party which desires war at
any price, whether the moment have arrived or not—
whether the means of supporting the war be ready or
not—whether there be sufficient reason for declining it,
or whether the interests and honour of the nation,
being satisfied, leave no fair pretext for entering upon
it. All are alike to this party. Its aim is war ; war
not for national advantage, but to change the dynasty
and the Government. It looks upon war merely as the
means of internal revolution. Such a party as this,
Government can hope neither to convince nor to satisfy.
" On another side stand not a party, but a group of
people, who are also for war at any price—that is, a
war against the present Cabinet, which they accuse of
being absurdly warlike whenever it shows firmness, and
of being pusillanimously pacific when it acts with pru-
dence. Whatever Ministers do, these people find
it wrong. We need not reply to such systematic op-

ponents.
" But we address impartial men, whether favouring
the Cabinet or not, men who desire war merely for the
sake of preserving intact the honour and interests of
France. Let these men reply to the following argu-

meats :
" A treaty was signed which left France out of the
settlement of the Eastern question—should war have
been declared on this account immediately ?
" We reply, that to have declared merely on account
of the Treaty being signed, would have been criminal
and mad, just because the military state of the country
was not such as could meet or carry on war ; secondly,
because the Treaty was an act of which, the conse-
quences alone possible, but not certain, might have been
a serious motive for war. In presence of such cen-
tualities' what could have been done, but arm—arm,
with indefatigable activity ?
" Can the Government be censured for any remis-
net.s in this respect ? Has it lost time ? It armed,
and its duty was to do no more."
Here are two war factions described, bellowing,
open-mouthed, against a pacific policy. The one
aiming at revolution and anarchy ; the other look-
ing only to the overthrow of Ministers. Actuated
by a thirst of vengeance and of blood on the one
side, and by the hunger of place and of power on
the other, we need not be surprised that the two
factions contrived that all France should resound
with the din of war, and that for a time the voice
of reason should be drowned in the ferocious hub-
bub of place-hunters and. anarchists. We can ap-
preciate the difficult position of the Minister sur-
rounded by such elements of strife, while admitting
that he had himself to blame for it. The picture
is so strongly drawn, that we feel no inclination to
attempt heightening its impression by a single
touch. The second part of the article is more im-
portant as regards the final adjustment of the ques-
Lion. Take the following extract :
" But what were those consequences which were to
necessitate war? Government could not declare what
they were. The Powers did not declare what were
their means of execution ; neither could France declare
how much it would tolerate.

" In the mean time certain points of the coast of

to be decided ; and on this point the fate of arms, ulterior
negotiations, and the influence of France, must have
their action. This alone is left iti doubt, There is
one point which, is no longer doubtful, vii., the ex-
istence of the Viceroy. This was the essential point
this is what France secures, or, at least, what she
places under the guarantee of peace or war. Is it
true that France has only stipulated a condition
which was generally agreed to ? It is a great mis-
take to suppose that it has been acceded to. We
declare to those who desire war a tout prix, that,
unfortunately this declaration of France, which they
regard as so incontestible, and uncontested by the
Powers, may give rise to a difference fatal to the
peace of the world. To please them, indeed, and in-
duce them to forgive the Government, a collision
must be inevitable. This cruel certainty does not
exist ; but collision is possible, and it is sufficient for
our argument for this collision to be possible, to show
the merit of the formal declaration by which the Go-
vernment has braved this terrible eventuality. For
after ail, France, whatever may be said to the contrary,
is alone opposed to all Europe ; but that is no reason
why she should be weak ; neither, on the other hand, is
it a reason why she should go mad.
This is certainly tearing to pieces the Treaty of
London ; but we do not believe that M. THIERS
ever meant that the Allies should regard such lan-
guage as serious. M. THIERS is not such a fool,
nor is France so mad, as seriously to think a war
possible on the question of a division of Syria.
This would be, indeed, a realization of the fable of
the Wolf and the Lamb.
Tax FRENCH NAVY.—The Commerce contains a
letter from Toulon, announcing that the effective force
of the French Levant fleet, commanded by Admiral
Duperre, would be 15 sail of the line, 4 frigates, 6
light vessels, and 2 steamers. " This force;" says the
writer, " will be sufficient to balance that of the Eng-
lish until their junction with the Russians. The squad-
ron ef reserve, which is to cruize between Toulon and
Algiers, will consist in the course of a month of 19
sail—viz. the Souverain and the Ville de Marseilles,
ships of the line, now at Toulon ; the Inflexible, the
Friedland, and the Jemmapes, which were expected from
the Atlantic ports ; of 6 frigates, 6 light vessels, and
2 steamers. With this," adds the Commerce, "we
shall be able, in case of need, to sink the English divi-
sions which may be sent to join the Levant squadron,
and, if it does not arrive too late, to stop the passage of
the Russian fleet. The naval forces assembled in the
Mediterranean, will soon amount to 68 ships of the
line, and 209 frigates, corvettes, brigs, and war steamers
—viz. French, 30 sail of the line, 10 frigates, and 90
light vessels ; English, 16 ships, 4 frigates, and 20
other vessels ; Russian, 10 ships, and 11 frigates, cor-
vettes, and brigs ; Austrian, 2 frigates and 5 other ves-
sels ; Egyptian, 17 ships, and 40 other vessels ; Turkish,
3 ships and 10 frigates, corvettes, and brigs ; Ameri-
can, 1 ship, 1 frigate, and 1 corvette."
THE WAR MANIA.—A reform dinner, at which
1,500 persons were present, was given to M. Arago at
Marseilles on the 11th inst. The toasts drank on this
occasion included ore, " A la propagande !" and the
proposer of it, in a speech urging the spread of propa-
gandism in Germany and Italy, concluded by calling out
" La guerre ! la Guerre !" This raised loud shouts
from the guests of " La guerre! la guerre !" M.
Arago afterwards made a speech in favour of electoral
reform. On returning to his hotel a crowd accompa-
nied him, and remained before his windows till a late
hour, singing the " Marseillaise," the " Chant du De-
part," &c.
FORTIFICATION OF PARIS.—The Moniteur an-
nounces that the laying out of the works of defence
around Paris was proceeding with activity on both sides
of the river. The Government was engaged at. the same
time in preparing the materiel necessary for their arma-
ment, and had ordered magazines to be forthwith con-
structed to store the artillery and other military imple-
ments destined for that object.
OPENING OF THE CHAMBERS.—The Temps states
that the opening of the Chambers will be prorogued to
the 15th of November.
STRASBURG RHILWAY.—The Moniteur publishes
Royal Ordinance, sanctioning sin arrangement entered
into on the 12th inst., between the Minister of Public
Works and the company of the Strasburg and Basle
Railroad, in virtue of the law of the 15th of July, 1840,
which authorised the State to lend to that company a
sum of 12,600,000 f.

N.---
At a late hour in Paris on Tuesday afternoon it was
rtinioured that ti Queen Regent in attempting to de-
part from Valencia had bees; arrested.
We are enabled to give a positive contradiction ia
this report. The Queen has arrived safely in France,
at Port Vendres, and was at Perpignan.
It was also reported that the draught of the speech
from the Throne was couched in such strong lan-,
guage that the King of the French had refused to
sanction it. It ',as added, therefore, that a Minis-
terial crisis was probable before the meeting of the
Chambers. Our Correspondent, on the other hand,
expresses confidentially the opinion that the King
would most certainly take no steps to break up the
Cabinet himself, but would leave that task to the deci-
sion of the Deputies. It is now ascertained that the
list of a new Ministry, composed of the Doctrinaires,
the "221," and members of the ex-Soult Cabinet, is in
readiness, should the emergency arrive.
PREPARATIONS FOR WAR.
The War-office has issued orders for preparing 4,800
sets: of harness and 600 saddles for the waggon train.
At Calais the forts are being mounted with can-
non ; several pieces have been placed on the
Fort Rouge, and a battery is about to raised near
Fort de Milan, as well as other points of the
coast. Important works have already been begun
at Fort Nieully and other land fortifications. About
80,000 f. have been allowed for their expenses. The
islands of St. Marcouf, off the coast of the Manche, are
having their defensive works mounted with cannon, and
have been garrisoned by a detachment of infantry from
Cherbourg.

DIVISIONS IN THE BRITISH AND FRENCH CAM-
NETS.-Our London Correspondent infotms us, that
the fact of a decided difference having arisen among the
members of the British Babinet on the Eastern Ques-
tion is positive. The Freneh Cabinet is in a similar
condition, there being two distinct opinions existing
among its members.—Galignani.
(From our Correspondent.)
PARIS, TUESDAY, OCT. 20.-1 have been informed
this afternoon of a curious circumstance, of the
authenticity of which I entertain no doubt. It may
be remembered that, some days since, a strong
article directed against Louis Philippe appeared
in the Courrier Francaise. By some means
the original manuscript has been found and the
corrections thereon have been ascertained to be in
the hand-writing of M. Thiers. The document
has been shown to Louis Philippe who thus holds
the proofs of the treachery of his Minister. It
may be guessed what effect this little incident is
likely to produce. The Conservatives are in high
spirits at the discovery. A Deputy, who was condoling
with the Queen on the late desperate attempt of
Dranaes, received for reply from her Majesty, "La
Presse a fait tout ;" to which the Deputy rejoined,
" Oui I la Presse impunie."

We have received Madrid Papers of the 13th
inst. The following extract from the Supplement
to the Madrid Gazelle of that day contains the
latest news from the Spanish capital :
" Through a private letter the Provisional Junta o f
Madrid has just learnt that Ministers arrived in Valen-
cia on the Bth instant, were presented the same night
at 11 o'clock to the Queen, and took possession of
their offices on the 9th, in consequence of which the
subjoined decree published in the Bulletin of the pro-
vince, and which has reached the Junta, was issued by
her Majesty.
As Queen Regent and Governor of the kingdom
during the minority of my august daughter, Isabel
the S:cond, I ordain that Don Joaquin Maria Ferrer,
Vice-President of the Council of Ministers, take charge
of the duties of Minister of Finance till the arrival
of Don Augustin Fernandez de Gamboa, appointed to
that office.' _ _ .

This Junta, notwithstanding, shall continue sitting
as heretofore, and without laying down their arms,

LLOYD'S SHIPPING-(THIS DAY.)

Roy Alt). is at a very low ebb in Spain. France
has only to send another Army of the Faith across
the Pp enees to raise the Republican banner in the
Peninsula. The Five per Cents. were on the 18th
at 25 3-1.6th3 for cash.

The Proprietors of Waterloo-bridge would act a
wise part by listening to the advice of a brother Share-
holder, contained in an address published in another
part of The Sun. We have repeatedly given them the
smne advice. Yet, while their property is declining in
value, with an increased population, and while the high
toll has also lessened the value of houses on the
Surrey side, they absurdly persevere in a system which
instead of bettering their condition renders it every
clay worse. By lowering the horse toll, the receipts
have increased, yet they refuse to make the same reduc-
tion for foot passengers, when reason and experience
prove that it would have a similar result. What but
low fares has made river steam-boats and omnibuses
succeed ? We see no other remedy for the deplorable
state of their finances. If they expect either Parlia-
ment or the public to purchase the bridge, they may
expect till Doomsday.

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY

COLONIAL MARKET.

---
In produce there was little doue by private treaty, and
the public sales were of little moment. Prices were firm
for all articles. The imports were light.
TEA MARKET.
The Trade were not so anxious to purchase as during
last week, and the market was rather quiet, still the late
advanced prices were maintained with firmness, and tcw
parcels were offered.
TALLOW MARKET.

The demand for Russia Tallow was dnll, and this could
only be forced at Town prices; the principal holders,
however, did not seem anxious to realize, and the few par-
cels disposed of produced former rates.

VIENNA, OCT. 12.—Within these few days
there have been several conferences, supposed to relate to
the new difficulties of the Oriental question. Count
Kolweat is again at Vienna. There is some talk of a
European Congress to be held shortly, some say at Wies-
baden or Carlsruhe. it was reported to-day that the
French Government had resolved to convoke the Cham-
bers. Though many persons considered this resolution as
affording hopes of the continuance of peace, because they
took it for grated that the voice of the rich middle classes,
who are sufficiently represented in them, would throw a
greats weight into the scale of peace, the funds fell so
much that Bank shares for instance might have been
purchased towards the end of the day at 1490. Five per
