FRENCH PAPERS.

CIRCULAR.

Tut MINISTER OF JUSTICE TO THE PROCUREUR-
GENERAL OF THE TOWN OF ---
PARIS, JULY 2.
SIR,—It is the duty of every Government to
protect the Constitution of the country from the
attacks of those who endeavour to destroy it, and
fron the insults used to discredit it. Respect to the
Coestitutional Charter of 1830, and to the national
thane established by it, is ordained by the laws.
Every attack levelled at those two bases of our
public rights must be visited will punishment, in
the interest of the public peace. The Press, parti-
cularly the Journals, has in later times outstripped
the limits of discussion. I have no need to press
upon you to institute fresh proceedings against the
cynical attacks, of which the very person of the
Prince has, more than once, been the object,
from the enemies of our constitutional order ;
public contempt is not sufficient to prevent
the renewal of these outrages, dictated and
caught up by the worst passions. The severe
application of the penal laws is necessary to like
disorders; but there are other abuses to which
it is fitting to call your attention. Instead of con-
fining themselves to criticising the doctrines and
acts of Government, some writers, exciting one an-
other by a deplorable emulation, have called the
very principle and essence of government in ques-
tion. Every day has witnessed public provocations
to some fresh restoration of the fallen regime and
the royalty of divine right, or calls for the establish-
ment of a republican system, the theories of which
are sought to be rendered predominant over those
of our Constitutional Monarchy. The licentious-
ness
of these open enemies has produced its fruits.
Provocatory language has been followed by hostile
acts, and Paris and the West have witnessed bloody
disorders realized by men who believed it possible
to do whatever so many writers advised. The
blood shed, and the necessity of securing internal
peace, require the putting a stop to disorders which
have lasted too long, and which would tend to
weaken the confidence of the people in the salutary
doctrine of the liberty of the press. The liberty of
the press does not go so far as to allow open de-
clarations of refusal to acknowledge the Govern-
ment and Charter of 1830, or to authorize public
provocation to the violation of the laws; it does not
go the length of permitting expressions of con-
tempt for our institutions, or advice to anni-
hilate them. Were impunity to shield the
words of those who proclaim the legitimacy
of the fallen dynasty, what right would there be
to punish those who might attempt, by secret plot-
ting or open appeals to arms, to restore their domi-
nion over France ? Were it lawful to say a repub-
lic is better suited to France than monarchy, what
right would exist of putting down those who, ac-
cording to this theory, might appear in arms to found
One? It cannot be thus—and if the right of con-
trolling, by free discussion, the acts of the responsible
authorities be the constitutional right of every citizen,
to deny or call in question the very principle of our
G overnment is still an offence, when acts of rebel-
lion, springing out of guilty provocation, do not im-
part to them the character of crimes. A country
Whose laws are so obscure, that a writer
Writer convicted of attacks against the princi-
ples of the Constitution and the essence of Govern-
ment could not ye found guilty, would be a prey to
constant and incessant dangers. Long impunity
of those who should proclaim the necessity of a new
regime would bring on, as its inevitable conse-
quence, attempts in favour of that regime. Fatal
trials have demonstrated the numerous evils the ne-
glect of these truths must bring on. French blood
has been shed by French hands, and the vilest crimes
have been mixed up with the griefs of a civil war.
None will dare to pretend that in the political depra-
vity which, looking lightly on every crime, has pre-
luded, in La Vendee as at Paris, civil war by assassi•
nation, daily predications in favour of the fallen
dynasty or a Republican Government have not
excited many to take up arms, and exercised
the most deplorable influence. Respect for the
public tranquillity forbids to allow writers, enemies
of our constitutional order, to make fresh and
daily appeals to such dreadful experiments.
The Government would be wanting in their
most imperative duties were they to tolerate
them any longer. You will not hesitate, Sir, to
avail yourself of all the powers afforded by the
laws against the offences I have pointed out. Ex-
Perience, the patriotism of juries, will teach them to
Understand that liberty is compromised by impunity
allowed to licentiousness, and that the consolidation
Of the constitutional throne is necessary to the de-
velopement of our national institutions. The cause
of civilization is to be defended against anarchy ; the
Government chosen by the country is to be
Strengthened by the judgment of the country against
the attacks of those who would favour culpable trials
at new Governments, and risk the overthrow of so-
cial order. You will bear these instructions well
in mind; they are comprised in these words :—Full
liberty to discuss the acts of Government, but the
rigorous repression of writers who pretend to find
in the Charter a right to deny the Charter itself,
and who, by their attacks against the principle of
our Government, would draw dangerous agitation
and bloody disorders upon the country.---Accept, &c.
The Keeper of the Seals,
BARTHE.

Of the existing " haute aristocratic" it is
curious that no fewer than six Ducal Peers are widowers,
with families. These are—the Dukes of WELLINGTON,
NORFOLK, RUTLAND, NEWCASTLE, SOMERSET, and
GRAFTON. The Dukes of DEVONSHIRE and DORSET
were never married. Consequently, there is a scarcity of
Duchesses among the nobility.
SINGULAR OCCURRENCE.—On Thursday
last, while the carriage of T. W. GIFFARD, Esq. was left
during the races, in the inn-yard, at Ludlow, a fowl,
which seemed to have an aristocratic taste for a roosting
place, perched upon the drag-chain tinder the vehicle. In
the evening, after the races were over, the carriage was
ordered out and drove off with the feathered sleeper, quite
undisturbed, for Chilligton. About nine miles out of Lud-
low, the servant wanting ;he drag-chain, discovered the
uninvited traveller, snoozing quite comfortably, to the no
small amusement of the party.—Wolverhampton
Chronicle.
THE HIMALAYA MOUNTAINS.—Captain
SKINNER'S narrative of his adventures in the East, com-
prising among various other interesting features the ac-
count of a Pedestrian Tour over this vast range, is now
nearly ready for publication. This region was known to
the ancients by the nart.es of linaus and the Indian
Caucasus. The present appellation " Himalaya," is a
Sanscrit word, signifying snowy. The grand and stupen-
dous scenery of the above portion of the Asiatic conti-
nent—the sudden vicissitude of climate peculiar to it—its
natural productions—the diversions afforded to the sports-
man, by the tiger, the bear, and other animals ; and the
many " disastrous chances" which await the adventurer
in his wanderings—are said to he detailed with great
spirit in Captain Skinner's forthcomi-g work, which is,
it seems, to be entitled " Excursions in India."
COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.—PAGANINI
gave the first of four concerts last ni bt, and it was well
attended. The pit and galleries wereg filled at once, and
the dress circle made a very handsome display,but in the
rest of the boxes the company sat scatterinl On his
first appearance there was a disposition ing partY. of the
house to hiss him; and poor Sir GEORGE SMART, who
left the piano-forte to usher in the Signor, seemed to
fancy that the symptoms of hostility were meant fur
him—whereas no man, for anything he did, could deserve
less either of disapprobation or applause. The opposition
was soon overcome, and John Bull acknowledged the
truth of CHURCHILL'S axiom, that " Genius is of no
country." He then gave an allegro inaestoso concerto,
which he has before performed, and which we could hear
we know not how often without being tired of it : this
was delightful but not wonderful. His second effort was
the sonata on the prayer in Pietro l'Eremita, performed
on the fourth string only. The most astonishing exhibi-
tion was, perhaps, the Dance of the Witches of Benevento.
The whole night's entertainment went off with great ap-
plause, as far as concerned the principal party—hut Miss
SHIRREFF, Mr. WiLsoN, MoRI,Ev, and a Signora
PrsTßAtra, whose aid was called in rather to fill up time
than to afford amusement, shared
comparatively little of
the public approbation. We certainly never heitrd Miss
SUMMIT sing so indifferently.
