LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 4, 1882.

It appears, by information received at Paris-by
telegraphic dispatch on Wednesday, that some
disturbances had broken out in the South of
France on the preceding day. These disturb-
ances have been magnified by the Ultras into a
civil war, and invested with all the dignity of a
regularly organised rebellion to overthrow the
Government. Unfortunately, however, for these
parties a second telegraphic despatch announces
that order is restored—the " white flag" humbled
in the (lust, without even the honour of a drop of
blood being shed in its defence—and the chiefs
of the conspiracy arrested. Our readers are
aware that the South of France especially is the
hotbed of Carlist plots, and that the only hope
of the Bourbons (a very feeble hope indeed) is
centred in that quarter. We subjoin the follow-
ing particulars on this subject from a morning
contemporary
(From the Morning Herald.)

PARIS, MAY 2.

It the accounts of M. Perier's health, given in the Mi-
nisterial Journals of this day, are to be credited, there is
not only a possibility of his not sinking under the illness

duce me, however, to doubt the correctness of this state-
ment altogether, particularly the latter portion of it.
From the tone, language, and conduct of the Court and
the Ministers, you %%ill perceive an anxiety to persuade
themselves and the public that there is nothing in a name
--that M. Perier may perish, hut that his system will
survive and flourish in immortal youth. Marshal Soult
will (according to the French idiom) preside over the
Council of Ministers; but the King, imbued with the
systeme Perier, will be Viceroy over him. M.
Muntalivet will be Minister of the Interior, but
(the beau-ideal of Pcrierism though he be) from
within the walls of the Chateau of the Tuileries will be is-
sued his instructions. Baron Louis will retire, and make
way at the Treasury for M. Hamann, M. Thiers, or some
other Doctrinaire, as ignorant of finance as the Rev.
Minister is au fait at it. But what's in a name ? The
system will be maintained, and its unpopularity continue

sible, but, above all, in such a shape as to satisfy the
people of England. Da that, and laugh to scorn the
storms that student, nailors, journalists, butchers,
.eputies, elaffonniers, or soldiers could raise in France ;
for you could then (I repeat) control the elements of
discord that would be loosed on the Continent, while
you would have the power to protect France herself,
should another season of disaster occur to her from any
new coalition. The Duke of Wellington, Mr. Peel, and
indeed the entire Tory party believe, or profess to believe,
that another revolution in France is possible. Let them
not, therefore, impede the measure that would place Eng-
land in a situation in which she would be able to neutralize
(with respect to foreign countries) the evils with which
such an event would be pregnant ; for, if there shall be
another revolution, it will be a Republican or Buonapartean,
or, perhaps, both.
In my hurry yesterday I referred very briefly to the re-
pot is of Carlist movements that were afloat. The Mani-
teur this day publishes the following telegraphic despatch
(rota Marseilles, dated the 30th ult. :
