LONDON:
MONDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1840.

The French journals of Friday and Saturday
have all been received, with reports of the proceed-
-in ;s in the French Chambers. In the brief space
of two sittings of the Chamber of Deputies, the
Cabinet had obtained three signal and most im•
portant victories over the war party, as we shall
henceforth designate AI. TRIERS and his sup-
porters. The Presidency of the Chambers was
won by a majority of sixty-six votes. Out of
eighteen nominations of Presidents and Vice-Pre-
sidents of bureaux or committees, the Cabinet
obtained twelve—and the four Secretaries of
the Chamber are decided advocates for peace.
The " 221," or MOLE party, have all joined
in support of the SouLT-GuizoT Adtninisttation,
and these, with the defections which may he ex-
pected from the ranks of a Minister out of place,
Will enable the new Ministry to retain that power
of which it is the interest, not only of France her-
self, but of Europe, that it should not be deprived
while it has moderation and peace for its watch-
words.

The Gazette de France gives as the substance of
the reports in the political circles of Paris on Sa-
turday, that M. THIERS would be attacked both by
the Left and the Extreme Left, that is to say,
both by the Reformers and the Republicans. Be-
tween theLeftand theCentresM.TH,EßS would find
himself in a cleft stick. Such was the prevailing
opinion. These parties had resolved not to spare
him. lie had coquetted with and betrayed both
and both had determined to wreak their vengeance
upon him. He had resigned office, it was said, be-
cause he found himself in bad odour with the Left,
and an object of distrust at the Tuileries. His
stratagems deceived no person, and his former
friends scrupled not to tax him with foul play.
There was some talk, too, of proposing the im-
peachment of the ex-President which was of course
only laughed at. But the formation of a new Left
Centre was gravely discussed, and also a junction
between the Left Centre of M. DUFAURE and the
Mole party or Centre, which now supports the
SouLT-G UJZOT Cabinet. This would complete
the ruin of the Ex-Minister, who would find it
impossible -,to'digitiize a powerful opposition out of
the disjointed arid, discordant materials thus left him.
Except the triumphs of the'Ministers in the
Chambers, we find nothing of any moment in the
French Journals. The following report of the
proceedings in the Chambers will be read by every
sound politician in Europe with lively interest :

CHAMBER OF PEERS.—SITTING OF Nev. 6.
The President, Baron Pasquier, took the chair at a little
before two o'clock. Among the Peers present was the
Duke d'Orleans.

The first act of the Chamber was to name the Secreta-
ries of the Provisional Bureau. MM. de Montalembert,
d'lstric, d'Alton Sbee, arid Montalivct were named, and the
four youngest Peers, having votes, were appointed as Se-
cretaries.

The minutes of the Royal sitting were then read, and
the Chamber proceeded to appoint the permanent Secre-
taries. The choice fell upon MM. Caffarelli, Gasparin,
De Pange, and Feutrier.
M. Merilhouproposcd that the nomination of the Com-
mittee for the Address should be postponed, in order to
afford time for a due appreciation of the Speech from the
Throne.

This proposition was put to the vote and rejected.
The Peers then withdrew into the bureaux for the pur-
pose of appointing the Committee on Petitions, and the
Committee to draw up the Address.
At five o'clock the Peers returned, and announced the
organization of the Bureau as folio its :-Ist Bureau, Presi-
dent, Count de Larochefoucault; Secretary, M. Foy.--
2d. President, the Duke of Orleans; Secretary, M. de
Montalambert.-3d. President, Admiral V,rhuell ; Se-
cretary, the Duke de Cadore.-4'h. President, M. Boyer;
Secretary, M. de Grammont.-sth. President, M. Mole ;
Secretary, M. Daru.-6th. President, M. Drvillier; Se-
cretary, Count Jules de Larochefoucault.-7th. President,
M. Serrurier ; Secretary, the Duke d'ls:rie. The Com-
mittee on petitions was announced as follows :—Messrs.
Persil, De la Place, Kerarty, Lapommerale, Tascher,
Viennet, and Villiers du Terrage. The Committee for
drawing up the address is composed of Messrs. Roy, Bar-
thie, Moonier, Mole, Girod (de l'Ain), Merilhou, and La-
plagne. Barris.
After these names had been announced the sitting
broke up.

CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES.--SITTING OF Nov. 6.
The chair was taken at one o'clock by M. Nogaiet, the
senior Deputy. At this time about 150 Members were
present. The provisional Bureau consisted of M. Nogaret,
as President, and Messrs. Persil, Guilheni, Combasrel de
Leyval, as Secretaries.
M. Teste was the only Minister present at the com-
mencement of the sitting.
The business of the sitting commenced with the drawing
for the Bureaux.
A letter was read from M. Pitot Dubelles, giving in his
resignation on accouut of his absence from the Chamber
being necessary for famil:. affairs.
Several letters from different Members were read, ex-
cusing themselves for temporary absence. Among them
was one from Marshal Clauscl, founded on the illness of
his lady.
Oae of the Deputies said, " The Marshal is present—
the letter is not of recent date."
This vas the fact, the Maishal being seated near M.
Odilon Barrot.
The Deputies then withdrew to the Bureaux in order to
organise them.
At three o'clock the public sitting was resumed. The
Order of the Day was the Ballot for the Presidency of
the Chambers. The numbers were announced as follows :
" M. Sauzet
"M. Odillon Barrot ........ •• 154
M. Thiers
" M. Bcrryer
" M. Dupin 1
" M. Dufaure
" M. Sauzet was accordingly proclaimed President of
the Chamber.
The President proposed that the nomination of the
four Vice Presidents should be delayed until to-morrow.
The Chamber, however, decided that it should take place
at once.
The ballot then took place, and the result was an•
flounced as follows :
" M. Calmon 249 votes.
" M. Dufaure 213
" M. Jacqueminot
" M. de Salvandy
" M. Ganneron

The result of the ballot was the following :

The comment of the Constitutionnel to the prediction
of M. Delamartine has elicited from that distinguished
personage the following reply :

" TO TILE EDITCR Oi THE CONSTITUTIONNEI,

The Lloyd Naniais says—" According to the news
brought by the Cornaline corvette, which arrived at
Brest on the 2d inst., the arrival of the remains of the
Emperor is not so near at band as was supposed. The
Comalinc, bcfore its name was known, received at. St.
Helena part of the honours intended for the Belle
Poule, which probably was the origin of the vague re-
port, that the latter had arrived there at the end of
August. But on the 28th, when the Cornaline left, it
had not yet appeared ; and if credit may "Je given to
the report of a Danish vessel which spoke this corvette
off the Azores, the Belle Poule was not likely to arrive
soon at St. Helena. It stated that the Belle Poule
and the Favourite had suffered a terrible tempest ; that
the Favourite had lost all its masts ; and that the ships
had put into Bahia to repair.—La Gazelle de France.
