LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 12, 1826,

We received, in regular course, laSt night, the Paris
Papers of Saturday, but their contents, which are by
no means important, had been partly anticipated by
the Etoile of Sunday morning, the receipt of which
by express, just before we went to press, we mention-
ed in our paper of yesterday. It may not, however,
he uninteresting to our Readers, to peruse the obser-
vations of thu different French Papers upon the pre-
' sent crisis, and the supposed policy of France : for
this purpose, we insert in another column, a long
article from the Constitutionnel, and another from the
Qaotidienfle, examining the Speech of Mr. CANNING
eu the Address to his MAJESTY on the late Mes-
utge to Parliament.
The Etoile classes nearly the whole of the para-
graphs in the other papers, containing what may be
called News, under the head of LIES OF THE DAY.
On political events that paper preserves the most de-
terptined silence, justifying its taciturnity by the trite
egression, that facts are much more instructive than
lemmings. Tito following,is an extract from this wary
Journal :

(From the Etude, tinted Sunday.)
PARIi, DEL'. 16.—The Journals accuse us of silence on
limit& the political events which at this moment engage general
atWation. This is doubtless because we have not added our par-
ticular reflectionsqo the narrative of facto; fur we shall not be
hittotitherl with silence, with brevity, or delay, in the exposition
Which we have published for some days past of the most import-
ant political documents. We are not disposed to abandon the
tystem which we have hitherto followed. We think that facts
are much more instructive than reasonings, and that the public
ha the Journalcto have news rather than the private opinion of
a few persons who compose them. Our readers will see in what
fellows a proof that the Journals which reproach us for our si-
lence, would have dour much better to imitate it.
LIES OF THE DAY.
The whole No. of the Constitutionnel of to-day, except what
it has borrowed from the Etoile • .
The Aristarque.—Orders have been given in the military
diPartment to march troops towards Bayonne.
The Aristarque again.—We have it from excellent authority
that a Minister has said, this very day, that he wished he were a
hundred feet under ground, because M: de Villela had taken upon
hint to make eugagements with England which could not be ful-
filled without dishonouring France.
The Aristarque, for the third time.—lt is thought certain
that there are at this moment above 240 Dcputies at Paris. Hence
it is inferred that M. de Villele induces part of his friends from
going to the Chambers.
The Courrier Francais.—All the particulars which it relates
of the Councils of Sunday and Monday.
The Courrier Franeals again.—The Duke de Batman ad-
dresses his accounts from Portugal to the Quotidienne.
The Constitutionnel.—;M.. de Mouatier arrived at Paris two
days ago ; but his return from Madrid is still a mystery.
The Constitutionnel again.—Two thousand muskets have
been sent from Pampelima, to arm the Royalists in NSIVEITII; and
this in concert with the French Military Authorities.
The Courrier Francais.—The President of the Council writes
in one manner, and the heads of the respective departments adopt
a different language.
* The Constitutionnel announces, among other news, dm-
fonr Ministers are going to retire.

We copy from a Cotemporary (the New
letter from Ancona' of the Ist inst., furnishing some
interesting particulars of recent events in Greece.
The affairs of that country, though partially eclipsed
by the occurrences of the last few days, must ever be
interesting to Englishmen, not only from the early as-
sociations with which that classic land is connected,
hut on account of the oppressions which it has suffered
from the modern Vandals who have overrun it, and
the natural sympathy which every Englishman feels for
those who are struggling for liberty against the iron
band of tyranny. These are sufficient grounds for
publishing news from Greece, without justifying it as
our cotemporary does by laying " that the affairs of
Greece should not be lost sight of, because it is with-
in the range of possibilities that Grecian independence
may be played of against schemes cl Continental
despotism.'

times) a

All accounts from France seem to lead to the con-
clusion that M. VI LI, ELE'S party have, for the present,
4 All events, triumphed, and that the measures whioh
Great Britain has adopted will not only meet with no
opposition from the Court of France, but that, on the
, other hand, the French Government will co-operate with
us in causing rERDINAND to retrace his steps, and
make reparation for the past, as far as can be done in
the present abject state of his kingdom.
Entertaining, however, an opinion founded on facts,
which could not bear two constructions, that. Spain
haa been encouraged by French intrigue in the course
she has pursued with regard to the affairs of Portugal,
