PARIS, Nov. 14.—The Sentinelle does not en.,.—
same opinion as the Indicateur respecting the fiaancial em-
barrassments of Don Carlos. It has a letter from the
frontiers of 9th November to the following effect :—" The
army of the Prptenderis going to be entirely clothed for
the winter season. Contracts have been made for the
supply of a large quantity of cloth.' The Carlist company
in the garrison of Zugarramurdi received last week cloth
sufficient to make a complete suit for each man. • There
seems to be money in abundance. Contractors for horses
have even received their payment in advance ; never up to
this time have the finances of Don Carlos appeared to be
so flourishing.
" The Christinos seem to have al)andoned for so ne timc
the hope of occupying those parts of Navarre are
next to the French frontier. All the provisions wii:eh
been collected at a great expense at Ainhoa, have just been
brought back to Bayonne."
AFrench Journal is about to be published at 111adr:d.
The editor is a French advocate, said to be a man of great
talents.

The Debit's says the Chambers will be con.Volled for the
beginning of January. The Courricr Francais mentions
the 12th January as the day for their meetincr. • -
Detachments of artillery and engineers continue to be
sent to Port Vendres to be. embarked. Foreign ships have
been freighted for the conveyance of the horses of the
military equipages that are to be employed in the expedi-
tion of Oran.

(From the Courier Francais.)

It is stated that the tiers parti are preparing to make a
proposition, in the next session of the Chambers, for the
re-instatement of Marshal Ney in his reputation and honour,
in the same manner as has been done in Spain with regard
to General Riego.

( From Galignani's Messenger. )

General Allard has left' Paris for Salnt Tropez, where
he will remain several months, before he returns to India.
He had an audience of leave of the King, who has corCer-
red upon him the title of Agent for France at the Court
of Lahore, and delivered to him letters of credence to
Runjeet Sing in that character. This letter is written in
the Eastern style, upon a large skin of parchment orna-
mented with gold, and having affixed the Great Seal im-
pressed with gold. The whole is enveloped in -a silk bag,
exquisitely embroidered. The Minister for Foreign Affairs
has also written to the favourite Secretary of Runjeet Sing
a letter, which is likewise enclosed in silk and gold. Ge-
neral Allard has been supplied, by the Government, with
numerous models of improvements made in all kinds of arms
during the last twenty years, which he intends to adopt for
the army he commands in India.
The National says that, from the letter of Mr. Li-
vingstone, addressed to the Duke de Broglie before he left
Paris, it appears, as was said beforehand by this journal,
that the American Constitution does not admit of any
other means of making satisfaction for.the words of Gen
ral Jackson, than by his modifying or explaining them in his
'next message to Congress, the President's speech being
looked upon as that of a private individual, over which the
Congress has no power. M. de Broglie, when he accepted
the amendment of M. Valaze, ought to have explained to
the Chambers what sort of satisfaction might be expected.
Things, therefore, have come to this point, that unless
General Jackson, in his next speech to Congress, explains
his former words, the French Government leaves to the
American the responsibility of beginning the measures of
action by which it intends forcing the accomplishment of the
treaty, and no one who knows General Jackson can expect
that he will do anything of the ki4.
(From the Journal des Debats.)
'The address of the Emperor Nicholas to the Municipal
body of Warsaw, is a very strange affair, and we cannot re-
frain from suspecting that it • was some secret friend of
Poland who invented it. What can the Emperor Nicholas
mean by such words ? What can be his intention or his
aim ? Is it Europe he thus addresses,
,or Poland ? He
could not but know that his words would soon resound

through Out Europe, since he takes care to state that he
knows of correspondence existing between Poland and the
west of Europe. We look iii vain for the Poten'tate's aim,
for we cannot possibly look upon his address as merely the
angry burst of a despot irritated to indiscretion. 'Hitherto
we had quite another idea of the Emperor of Russia. We
considered him as enlightened, sage, patient, clever ; and
though we reuarded him as the adversary of western Eu-
rope; and the foe of English and French liberty, we still
were inclined to think highly of his talents of governing.
We frequently denounced the ambition of Russia, and even

then revealed a hidden admiration for the fortunes of the
empire, and the skill with which it was conducted. Must
we abandon this idea'? Are we compelled- to behold in
the Emperor Nicholai a Prince beneath his station, the
blind slave of his own or his people's hatred, uttering or
flattering the old hatred of-the Russian for the - Pole, and
demeaning himself rather as the head of a savage tribe, than
as the Monarch of an extended empire.
The discourse of the Czar is calculated. to revolt every
generous heart. The outrageousness of it is of the coarsest
kind. It is old Russia bursting again through the thin coat
of civilization which so narrowly covered it. The barbarism
of it savours even of the time before Peter the Great. After
such a discourse, St. Petersburgh is far too civilized a resi-
dence for the Czar. He should.repair to Moscow, and hide
himself in the Kremlin, in the old castle of Ivan the Fourth.
Neither the palace of Catherine, nor even the cabi❑ where
Peter the Great dwelt when he built St. Petersburgh, c m
suit a prince who speaks. of levelling cities, and leaving
nothing but ruins behind him.
And besides, when one thinks 'to whom this outrage was
addressed—to how generous a nation, how unfortunate, and
how conquered. But there is consolation, nevertheless, in
this avowal, extracted in choler from the conqueror of ,
Poland. Gallant Poles, the burden of your national hymb,
which declares that
" Poland, ee►erished land, has not yet perished,"
has some truth in it. The soil impregnated with the blood
shed for independence, yet palpitates. The pulse of pa-
triotism beats yet within its trampled bosom ; and it is the
victor, the tyrant,, who tells us so. Why, we thought Poland
was no more, or survived but in the melancholy' exiles who
had escaped the executioner. But we were wrong. 'lle
oppressor himself attests that there still is a Poland, and
the murderer is forced to bear witness, in his rage, that the
victim, which he could not kill, still breathes.
One might have believed, seeing. a deputation. of Poles
salute the Emperor, That there were some of the nation who
accepted his yoke. The Emperor Nicholas tells us that
this is all a lie—the addresses, the vows of fidelity, false.
They are Poles, we Russian—they hate us irrevocably,

and no sentiments can exist between .us, save those of
hatred and revenge. Poland. speaks untruth in saying she.
submits,—untruth, when she promises to be faithful. Re-
sistance is still the deepest thought of the heart : and insur-
rection, the eternal duty and hope of the morrow. The
Emperor of Russia tells us so.
One might have supposed that during the last four years
the Russians had gained some influence at Warsaw—that
the Governor-General had conciliated some minds—that he
is less detested, more respected. The Emperor of Russia
knows the contrary, and he tells the world so. He knows
that when the Poles salute a Russian field-marshal it cannot
be in sincerity. He knows that Poland cannot repent of
what she has done ; and this irritates the Despot, who
would set up his power in the place of religion, and
tells those who have denied it, to repent. Repent, indeed !.
Should Poland repent of having thrice made an effort to
revive : of having beaten the Russians and shaken their
empire to its foundation ? Let her repent of her heroism,
and then she may find favour with the Czar. But up to
this moment the sentiment which benumbs mortal courage,
and which makes cowards of mankind, has not touched the
Polish heart. No ; Poland does not repent ! Thanks to
Providence which gives her spirit, and to the Emperor who
proclaims it aloud !
Poland has not abdicated her nationality nor her hopes
of redemption. These arc net confined to her exiles ; they
are cherished in Warsaw's self, under the Russian cannon,
and under the menaces of the Emperor. Nor is Poland
shut out, as one might suppose, from Europe. The
Russian Police, vigilant, able, and severe, cannot prevent
the connection and communication subsisting between Po-
land and her exiled sons. We were wont to lament over
the darkness and the silence which hung over PolanJ, and
over the impenetrable wall which surrounded her. But,
without. reason, the Emperor of Russia tells us that Poland
corresponds with lands of liberty ; and that words of hope
and consolation reach her from without.

In this picture of Poland, drawn by the Emperor of
Russia, we can wee nothing *calculated to • alarm Europe,
or to discourage the Polish exiles. They ought, on
the contrary, to thank Lis Imperial Majesty for the tes-
timony which he has borne.' The Deputies of Warsaw
ought especially to thank him for uttering for them the
sentiments which filled their hearts, but which they durst
not speak. They may now say to him—" We should have
deceived you in addressing you as our sovereign. We
are not, and we will not be, Russians. We are
still an independent nation, recognised by European trea-
ties. Three times slaughtered, betrayed, dismembered, we
have never - acquiesced in our ruin, nor abandoned the
consciousness of our riOlt. This conviction, this achnow-
lodgment of our right, you, yourself, Sire, have.under the
form of remorse—and that is the true reason why, during
30 years, you have done your utmost to kill and to op-
press us. You tell us it is happiness to belong to Russia.
We know this happiness only by the massacre' of our bre-
thren, the devastation of our country, and such mena?.cs
and destruction as those you have just uttered. As to the
solidity of Russia, we know, that though few in number,
without arms or resources, we still shook your emp:re,
and that the shock of our very defeat still troubles one
power, and drives you from that calmness and modcra-
