Virsma, JAN. 24.—A decree of the Emperor of Aus-
tria, dated the 18th November last, will give more solidity
to the establishment of the Jesuits in his dominions. His
Majesty grants them the facility to communicate freely
with their General for every thing concerning the internal
government of their houses, the direction of their schools
which are entrusted to them, the choice of books of instruc-
tion; and permission to devote themselves to the labours of
the missions. The Emperor terminates his decree by an-
nouncing, that the Jesuits will contribute in his dominions
to the good education of youth! that they will labour to
form Christians and faithful subjects, and that they will
thus put a check on the ravages -of incredulity and cor-
ruption. . - - - • -

THE SPEECH OF THE CROWN.

- Pants, Fea. ti.—The King's Speech was impatiently
looked for.' It was expected that it;would. contain the Con-
demnation of the counter-revolutionary-system, followed
1-so obstinately by the late Ministry.; and the public were
not disappointed.
. When the King, spoke of Navarin, a general thrill of
approbation displayed itself in every part of the House.—
We can thus judge-of the lively interest taken in the sacred
cause of the Greeks by all French hearts. The language
of the King of England's Speech on the same subject, gave
-the more value to that of-the King of France. There
exists in France -an interest above all Others, and that is
theinterest of the national glory and humanity.

The Ministers have told us nothing, in stating that the
Peninsula was long a cause of sacrifices, and that the germ
• orcivil discord is not yet destroyed in its bosom. Let us
`hope that the faction which fed those disturbances, now
deprived of assistance on this side of the Pyrenees, will be
at length disarmed ; and that the Spanish Government
..Will feel that the civil and' religious liberties of its people
are the strongest pledge of its repose and prosperity. - - -
L A report had been spread of a deficiency in the means Of
the Government to meet its expellee. It will be necessary
to determine the cause of such a'cleticiency, which, with the
enormous .taxes under. which France groans, and after so
.u,suy years of peace, ought-not:to exist. No doubt, had
not
.the late.Mbaistry beee.driven from power, wetshould
not' have had our financial situation. yet explained to us.
But it is high rime that,light should, penetrate into that
aitul question, and that we should know what had become.
of the hundreds of millious which have been supplied by
the sweat of the peopleto

P4nts, Fen: 6.—The King has spoken, and that too,
in a torte and manner which France required ;. to place
under tit.e protection of his Crown, our: interests, laws,
' liberties, glory, and solicitude for the development of corn-
trierM and Inannfikd......., Usk Zdoe. aonoe..ft:ns ca"--
lion of men, the promise to place our legislation in entire
harmony with the immortal compact on which the monar-
ch," reposeS,- the royal promulgation of the doctrine, that
the observance Of laws forms the strength of thrones, and
. that truth is the first want of Kings as well as isiations.
These arst the proofs of our accordance of sentiments anti
wishes which unites the monarch and the subject; these
-are the pledge of the pacific future promised to the country.
While England repudiates the glory of liaTarin, Charles
X. claims it for his crown. ire is the first I)Tooarch of
the earth who has announced' from the Throne the paciti:.
cation of Greece. Royal Words will carry hope anti
joy amid the mini of Peloponnesns. 'The camp of
echolin terror with the Sound, and the Eng-
lish' soldiers,, Mutilated. in fighting for:the Cross, will be
consoled for their victory ; the King of,riance does not
deplore it.
We cannot express, the profound emotion. which the
accents of the Father of the Country have, excited in every
soul. Respect could not restrain the transports of grati-
tude andlove.

A. new era has begun ;it will be pacific—it will be
fruitful. France will pursue the course of improvement
without, precipitation, and without obstacle•. Ameliora-
tion will descend from die Throne with a wile proportion.
.of..zeal and maturity. Our Institutions will be strength-
ened by .strengthening the Monarchy. France will be
great and respected abroad; she will be prosperous, free,
and obedient •at home. Charles K. will enjoy our riches,
nor splendour, our liberty itself, as his own work ; and
the more years crown his forehead, the brighter will public
love render his Crown. • •

PARIS, Fze. 6.—TtaKtxc's SPFECIT.—On examining
the Speeeh at the opening of the Session, fre do not. find a
single word conformable to the hOpes' entertained by the
public, which is riot at the same time the condemnation of
the late system. For seven years his'tperfidiwts advisers
haVe forced from the Crown the disastrous meawes cal-
culated to alienate the affections of the people. A few
months ago the Ministers endavotired to prevent truth from
rising to the Throne by gagging the press ; and disbanded
the National Guard of Paris, he.cause it dared to render
itself the organ of the public wishes. Then enraged at the
joy of the independent citizens of Paris, they punished them
by firing upon them. The King, however, now observes
that="-truth is the first want of Princes and nations."

EXTRAORDINARY. PET.—An officer in our
Customs' department, long famous. for pets of almost every
description, has now in his possession an extraordinary one

it regularly opens its . shell, and, being ofxasionally treated-
witla,a dip in its, native element, it seems to enjoy a place
in the curious wsnagerie, almost as well as its neighliours. ,
