FRENCH PAPERS.

(From the Illcssager des Zlambres of Wednesday.)
PA MS, OCT. 7.—Yesti•rday morning the Belgian Am-
bassador, M. Le Hon, had a long conference with Lord
Granville.

One of the Secretaries of the French Embassy at Berlin,
who had been for some time at Paris, was on Monday sent
off by the Minister for Foreign Affairs with despatches fur
the Prussia❑ capital.
M. Z a Bermudez. brother to the Spanish Minister fur
Foreign Affairs, and Secretary to the Count d'Ofalia, ar-
rived on Mond iy at Paris, from Germany, where he has
been on a special mission..

B iron James de Rothschild returned to Paris on Mon-
day evening, from his journey to Italy.
A letter of the 12th instant, from Orbe, in Switzer-
land, mentions the mysterious disappearance of Duke Charles
of Brunswick. On Sunday the 7th, he went out alone
to take a walk, and had not returned at the date of the
letter. His friends and servants were in the greatest
anxiety, as they were totally unable to guess what had
become of him.

The Memorial des Pyrenees announces that, in pur-
soance of arrangements made between the French and
Spanish authorities, communications are about to be re-
Earablished between Oloron and Arragon.
Dr. Bowring has arrived in Paris.
M. Martin Dutheil, late Editor of t!.e Lyre Fidele, a
Carlist journal, who has taken to flight, in order to avoid
the execution of a judgment, whereby he was condemned
to eight years' imprisonment and a fine of 10,000 f., has
been arrested at Bordeaux.

On the 10th inst. a very fine store-ship of 800 tons
was launched from the Government dock-yard, at Bayonne.
She is called La Lozere.

The sentence of death pronounced upon the Chouan,
Jean Guignard, by the Court of Assizes for Ls Vendee,
for unlawful enlistment, has been commuted into impri-
sonment for ten years.
By a Royal ordonnance, dated yesterday, Rear-Admiral
Grivel is appointed Maritime Prefect at Rochetort, i❑ the
room of Vice-Admiral Jurien Lagraviere, called to exe-
cute other functions.

The Opposition Deputies who are now in Paris have
held a first meeting at the residence of M. Thiars. These
meetings, we understand, will be renewed from time to
time till the Session opens, and will take place at the re-
sidence of one or other of the Hon. Members.
M. Guizot, Minister of Public Instruction, has
dressed a circular letter to the rectors of the acadamies,
whereby, after noticing the improvements introduced
within the last two years into the institutions for public
instruction, and stating, that as the spirit of the Consti-
tution required a mote enlarged freedom in the system of
education, as well a in other branches of the state, the
more importantit became that the schools of the state should
be made to answer the wants of the times and the demands
of the districts, the Minister, preparatory to his laying any
further proposals before the Legislature, calls upon the rec-
tors to send him a detailed report of the state of the Nor-
mal schools within their respective districts, with sugges-
tions as to such extensions and improvements as they may
think desirable. The Minister then states that he has it
in contemplation to found establishments of an intermedi
ate class between those of the Colleges and those of Pri-
mary Instruction, calculated for that considerable portion
of the population which are not destined fur either of the
learned professions, and who, consequently, have no desire
to pass into the Royal or Communal Colleges to acquire
the classics, but need a species of instruction more exten-
ded and more various in history, geography, the modern
languages, and national literature. To this end, M. Gui-
zat adds, that as not a single commune should be without
a Primary School, nor any department without a National
School, so no town of upwards of 7,000 inhabitants
should be without the proposed secondary school for the
purpose of carrying on education from the point at which it
is left by the primary schools, to that at which it commences
in the colleges. He therefore desires the rectors to re-
turn him not only a report upon what they tray consider
useful and desirable to meet this great object, hut as to
whatever they may consider calculated to improve and
extend the present system of education.
The Indicateur of Bordeaux of the 14th inst., gives
the following intelligence as having been received by ex-
press
from Madrid :—" On the Sth the Queen was ap-
pointed Regent during the convalescence of the King.
This is announced by the Madrid Gazette of the 9:h,
which also contains a decree for re-establishing the Uni-
versity. Several changes in the new Ministry are also
stated. M. Monnet, Minister of War, and M. Eneyma
y Piedra, Minister of the Finances, have been super-
seded, the former by General Vives, and the latter
by M. Imas. Two of the late Ministers have been
imprisoned, M. Alcudia in the citadel of Panipeluna,
and IH. Calumarde in the Fort of St. Sebastian, at
Cadiz, where the indictment against him is being pre-
pared. General Fives, nominated Minister of War,
lately returned from the Havannah, where he was ap-
pointed General by the Constitutional Government,
and was afterwards confirmed by Ferdinand. During
his command in that country, he was distinguished by his
spirit of moderation, and by the attentions with which he
received those refugees who effected their escape from
the yoke of despotism in Spain. It is generally allowed
that the choice of General Vives is even preferable to
that of General Monnet. M. Imas, the new Minister
of Finances, filled the same office under the Constitutional
Government, and was lately Director of the Customs.
No one doubts either his capacity or good intentions."
Letters from St. Ildefonso, dated the 6th inst., state
that the health of the King of Spain has improved so
r tpidly, that he would return to Madrid on the 15th, un-
less any unforeseen change should prevent him.
The Augsburg Gazette of the 13th instant has the
following letter from Zante, dated Sept. 1 :—" The
subjoined particulars will serve to throw light on the
present disorganised state of Greece. When Zavellas,
in opposition to the present Government, had made
himself master of the town of Patras, an armed vessel
fromr etch of the Three Powers was sent to that port,
fol. the protection of the foreign inhabitants, and a
peaceable intervention between the contending p nrti, s,
without resorting to violent measures. Such were the
instructions given to the Captains; nevertheless it hap-
pened that the Russian vessel, contrary to these instruc-
tions, and contrary to the agreement entered into with the
other captains, quitted the station, to act against the pre-
tended rebels, that is to say, against those who are opposed
to the party of Zavellas and Capo o'lstrias, or, in other
words, against the Provisional Government. The Russian
vessel pursued several boats in the Gulf of Corinth. Al-
though complaints were' made against these proceed-
ings, a second Russian vessel, which was at Patras, did
not hesitate, probably contrary to the intentions of her
Admiral, to enter into open communication with Zavellas.
In consequence of this the English and French captains
have declined all connexion with the Russian vessel, and
have even demanded an explanation on account of the too
near

Corfu."—The same papei quotes Metallics, Five per
Cents., at Vienna, on October 8, 871 ; ditto, Four per
Cents., 76 11-16.
The Breton of Nantes, of the 15th inst. announces,
that although a new keeper was appointed to the prison of
that town after the flight of M. Quibourg, another pri-
soner, M. de Pysieux, effected his escape in the course of
Saturday night, and all the efforts made to overtake hint
have been fruitless. It appears that the porter of the in-
firmary of the prison, being indisposed, another man was
put in his place pro tempore, and the latter facilitated the
escape of M. de P. for the sum of 600 f. which had been
given him by M. de l'Aubepin, another prisoner, with the
promise of a pension of 300 fr. for life.
Le National refers to the state of the Mauritius and of
Ireland, as affording a complete answer to those French
politicians who cry up the English system as the only per-
fect model of legislation, and fancy that the happiness of
France can he secured by a Charter modelled on it.
Le Constitutionnsl says that the Ministerial press is
endeavouring to stir up the Opposition to dissention and
discord, hoping by these means to divide those whom it
cannotshope to conquer.
The other Journals merely repeat, in other words, their
former arguments for and against the doctrinnaire Admi-
nistration.

V:Go, SErT. 30.—Yesterday evening, at S o'clock,
Don Miguel's squadron entered our port under pretence of
several leaks having been sprung, but we rather imagine
that it is on account of Don Pedro's squadron, which has
been reinforced by several vessels being in pursuit. The
Miguelite squadron, which is commanded by Admiril
Joao Felix Pereira deCampos, 60 years of age, consists of the
ship Don Joao VI. of 80 guns and 778 men ; the frig .te
Princeza Real, of 50 guns and 480 men ; the corvette
Cibelle, of 26 guns and 234 men; the corvette Isabella
Maria, of 24 guns and 199 men ; the brig Tap, of 20
guns and 151 men ; and the brig Audaz, of 18 guns and
154 men. The squadron brought in with it a Brazilian
vessel as prize.

The Board of Health of Vigo has decided that the Mi-
. 6tie lite snips shall be subject to a quarantine of eight day,
as coining from Lisbon, and that no vessel of any kind,
belonging to any nation, shall enter from Oporto. Joao
Felix did not intend to stay here, but Admiral Sartorius
last night occupied the Northern channel with nine vei-

eels, and the Southern with six, so that we think be Will
now stop some time. Admiral Sarterius has besides two
steam boats. We have certain information, that a fee'
days after the affair of the 16th, before Oporto, 85 ears
entered Braga, laden with wounded, belonging to Don
Miguel's army.
P.S.—lt is now 10 in the morning ; only nine of Sr-
torius's vessels are now in sight, among which is one ship.
The remainder are cruizing beyond the islands with the
two steam-boats.

(From the Morning Herald private Correspondent.)
The progress of the new Ministry hitherto has been
upon a scale of comparative graduation—(as respects thel
Press in particular)—an improvement attributable, c
course, to the new Members of the Cabinet. The Due de
Broglie is a Doctrinnaire lout a fait. lie is (for which,
of course, we will not find fault with him) enamoured el
the British Constitution, and imagines it applicable to
France. There exists not in the world, perhaps, 1°
hnnester or a kinder man. Ile is integrity itself. He's
moreover, an admirable family man, devoted in hi friend-
ships, and unbounded in his benevolence. Still he is i
Doctrinnaire, a theorist, and, in the liberal acceptation of
the phrase, a little too absolute in his " limited
monarchy" cone( ptioas. 111. Gu zot is unpopu!art
from his known predilections to the exiled fantail
and his having recommended violent measures to Loin!
XVIII. and to Louis Philip. To him, therefore, none&
the newly-displayed mildness of the Cabinet is ascribed'
the credit of it is, consequently given to the Due de
Broglie on account of his " English propensities," to 111
Thiers, from hi: previous long connection with the Press,
as an editor and sub-edimr, and to M. Humann, who ss
still supposed to be under the influence of his patron, De'
a z,s. Notwithstanding this mild beginning of the 31'.
nistry, however, it is impossible to regard the impending
conflict without apprehension. From the moderate party
in the Chamber I have sire lily said the present Minister!
have a fair chance o! support. From the retiring MI"
nisters they will receive, of necessity, almost all possible
aid ; and for this latter assertion the following incident'
will, I am sure, he received as authority.
The Laffi•te and La Fayette party may confine then,'
selves to a constitutional opposition ; but that " the y 00"
droite" will remain within the bounds of moderation o°,
man expects. What will then be the consequences'
Violent declamation within doors--dreadful excitement
without. Should treason, actual or constructive treas,°'
be uttered in the Chamber, Ministers are determinedur°
arresting and prosecuting the guilty ; but even should ne'
tual treason not be committed within, what is to bagel
elsewhere ? 1 shall answer in the words of a member,
a very itnport int and powerful class, with whom I
in conversation yesterday, on the Place Louis XV. :--
<, Look around you (said lie); on this place 100,000
men will stand on the 19th Nov. next (the day fixed Of
tl e opening of the Session of the Chambers). You kno4
me. I was a soldier of the republic—the contemporary,
in his early grades, of Ma-sena. I fought in
Egypt, and in Syria. I served in the Consular Guard'
and I was in every battle in which the Imperiml Guard
contended, conquered, or succumbed. I fought <in 'he
days of July,' and, after fighting, left to the civilian'
the arrangement of a constitution, believing that they
would see that liberty was secured for France. 101 took 0°
part in any of the emeutes that have since distracted the
capital; but I have looked attentively at the proceeding',
of the canaille, whom you know by the appellation ,1
the juste milieu. I see what we are to expect from then',
if they succeed in their trinceuvres to obtain a 1113J°'
rity of the Chamber; and I see that the moment
for action is at hand. On the 19th day of the 11,1
t
month I shall be one of the hundred thousand me°
who will crowd this place. I shall be one of th°"ei
who (pointing to the Chamber of Deputies, in front °
as beyond the river) will mount those steps, and Who
will tell the juste milieu, " Va canaille" (Quit th°
use, ye scoundrels) ; and to the honest of the OW
her " Fuites votre devoir." (Do your duty.) I see hi
your countenance that you think this is only idle izeii
nice—but it is no such thing. I speak not of my.eg
only, but of a large class. I shall—as they will—be Wed
armed. The canaille of the juste milieu—and my °ld
Commander &mit himself (who, to say the truth, I OW
sider to be now only a Jesuit)—may command the trooP6
to fire upon us Be it so. The arm that wielded a tab's
at Arcola and Lodi—which slew the leader of the MAT)"
Jukes at the Pyramids—which cut down a standard-bearer
at Wagram—which saved my *******r*+'*'s life at the
I3eresina—which crossed its weapon with your Life
guardsmen at Waterloo—and which waved the tri-colours
flag in the Place de Greve, has yet strength enough to
strike another blow for liberty—and it will strike."
