FRENCH PAPERS..

(From the Journal du Commerce of Sunday.)
Paars, Fes. 9.—A private letter from Lisbon of the
27th January, gives the following news :
" Yesterday the Portuguese Government positively re-
fused to grant the satisfaction required by the French Go-
vernment. A brig of war was immediately despatched
to convey this intelligence to France.
" The French Government demanded that the Com-
manders of the forts should be dismissed, and that it
should be announced in the Gazette that they were dis-
missed in consequence of the remonstrances of the French
Government. The Portuguese Ministry replied, that such
a satisfaction would he too humiliating to the Government,
and would make it lose the confidence of its own nation ;
that, in consequence, it was obliged to refuse what was
required, but that it depended on the acknowledged gene-
rosity of the French nation.
41 p.S.—I have just learned from authority which ap-
pears worthy of credit, that the French Consul has just
been changed ; he is a man respected by all parties, and
has resided many years at Lisbon."

PARIS, FEB. 9.—The legitimatist party is not dis-
couraged. Will it be believed that to-day, the 9th of Feb.,
in broad day light, at one o'clock in the afternoln, there
was posted on the very door of the Palais de Justice, in
the sight and with the knowledge of the whole quarter,
an enormous placard in three columns, the object of which
was to excite the people in favour of the prisoners at Ham,
and of the Duchess of Berry. But what is still more in-
conceivable is, that for nearly two hours that this pamph-
let remained exposed to view, none of the agents who are
so skilful in following the smallest movements of the pa-
triots came to tear it down; it was not till nearly four
o'clock that the police thought of meddling with it.
At the moment that we are writing, this same placard
which is headed " France and Berry," may be read on
the walls in several quarters of Paris, among others at
the entrance of the passage Vivienne, next. the Palais
Royal, where it has attracted a numerous group of persons.
