The following article which appearea in a
French P;iper, called the Constibilionnei, conveyesl

in a professed Critique oil an Exhibition of
Pictures, is said to have been the reason for the
suppression of that Paper :
TRANSLATION.

" We remark amongst his finest. pictures (Isaueir) the
whole-length figure of a child, bolding in its two hands an
enormous bouquet of roses. This association of the colours
of spring and the graces of infancy, recalls and embodies
ideas of hope. In the middle of the bouquet the author has
placed some beautiful blue flowers. The ensemqe of this
composition has the most pleasing effect. These flowers are
called German IreritisJ (it should be vergi,u) mrin
forget me not."

This article was conceived by the French Go-
vernment to contain a political allusion and

mystery, and therefore the Paper was stopped
altogether. When we consider the artifice, the
rancour, and the incurable fatuity of political

Reformers and Revolutionists, and the private
knowledge which the French Government might
have of the real import of this apparently simple
and innocent Critique, we are not disposed to
agree with the Party Organ on this side of the
water in supposing it acted with harshness,caprice,
and tyranny. An incessant watch should be kept
over the mancenvres of Faction in all Countries, or

no Government can remain in a state of security.

They following is an Extract from a Calcutta
Journal of the 10th of Feb.
" .IVe leain that a French Governor had arrived
and received possession of Chermandugour, the
former French Settlement 30 miles above-Calcutta.
Pondicherry, one hundred miles below Madras, on

the Corom►:ndel, had also been delivered to the
French Anthorities, hut the Territory ceded with
those places scarcely surpassed the diameter of

three miles, around which the British had esta-
Mkheil Such a line of boundaries, that-the French

possessiors in the I;ast are nearly nominal ; every
article imported into them, and exported flog,
them, I),..ing snhject to the Lnglish Company's

Duties."

The articles at Calcutta were nearly thiubit the

'or mer prices.

We extract from some German Papers, wlikl
came to hand last night, an article from the Ghen
Journal, chewing the hatred against Englam
which is still vented by some of the Bnonapar

tists, and also rather a curious speculation wit'
regard to the policy of Russia, and the allege
interpretation of the holy Alliance.

It is reported on 'Change, that the object of

The factions Prints are amusing their Readers
with accounts of OLIVER'S CIPHER. The cha-
racter and conduct of this person %vas s• satisfac-
torily vindicated by Mr. ADDINGToN, in the House
of Commons, that 110 attempt has been made to
refute the staten►ent of that Gentleman. We
know nothing of this OLIVER ourselves, but We.
conclude, from the rancour of faction, that he has
been mewl to his country.
