LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 6, 1833.

Our Paris Correspondent says that an attempt
is making there by the Ultra-Liberals to create
a strong feeling against the Government on the
subject of the peculiar privileges enjoyed by
British merchants in Portugal. As this feeling
is already becoming very general, it is probable
that M. TRIERS will profit by the occasion of
his visit to London to obtain some concessions.
With respect to the journey of M. TRIERS, it
is asserted here by the Ministry that it is merely
one of pleasure. This is by no means the case.
M. Tim:Rs, who is the confidential Minister of
the KING, has private and very important in-
structions from Louis PHILIP which embrace
the general policy of Europe ; and he will cer-
tainly discuss with our Ministers the great ques-
tion of a commercial treaty, and also endeavour

to make some better arrangement for the daily
estafette than now exists. All the French mer-

chants and bankers complain bitterly, and with
just cause, of the enormous charge which is now
made for the postage of letters. The only an-
swer they get is, that as the Duke of RICHMOND
would not adopt any of the suggestions of the
Government here, except the extending the
number of post days to six, the French are ob-
liged to levy so high a postage to re-imburse
their extra expenditure.

A favourable report has already been made to
the French Government respecting the projected
railway to Rouen ; but the official survey has
not yet been made. It is computed that the
time required will be four hours by the lower
road, which is preferred, as there are very few
hills. To complete the railway will not occupy
more than three years, so that, in the year 1836,
we may expect to receive Paris papers, by tho
way of Dieppe, in twenty hours ; and
.if the
railway should be extended to Dieppe, in
eighteen hours. If a railway should be laid

down between Brighton and London, and
powerful steamers be established between Brighton
and Dieppe, we shall have papers and letters

from Paris in fifteen hours, or even less. At
present important news may be conveyed from
Paris to London, by Dieppe, in the same time
as the commercial telegraph from Paris to Rouen
will execute the despatches---in twenty minutes.
The Government have in vain endeavoured to
put down the commercial telegraph. The pro-
prietors have taken legal opinions, which are in
their favour; but M. Tin ERS threatens to get
an act of the Chamber, next session, for their
suppression. No alarm is felt at this threat, for
the merchants are rich, and they know M.
THIERS'S weak point.

Great efforts are making to increase the navy.
There never were so many vessels on the stocks.
There are upwards of seventy, of which more

than twenty are ships of the line, now in a very
forward state.

Despatches were on Monday received from
the French Ambassador at Vienna. They are
said to be important, for, soon after their arrival,
a courier was dispatched to the KING ; but
their contents have not transpired. It gene-
rally said, however, that in consequence of the
prevalent feeling here, the Government will
assume a much more independent tone as regards
Amlgin iearrs e. ten About a

getting the army into an effective state, and a
new contract for arms is spoken of. All this,
however, is merely precautionary.
