FRANCE.

The following are the notices forwarded to us by our Paris cones-
pendent, to which we referred yesterday :
The working classes still keep in a feverish and unsettled state; there
is, however, no doubt but they are urged on by disappointed indivi-
duals, who mix with the people in disguise, and in language very supe-
rior to what their appearance would lead you to expect from them,
endeavour to rouse the working part of the population to commit acts
of violence against their employers. In several cases the individuals
who have been arrested, while haranguing the people, whom their arti-
fices have collected together, have turned out to be members of the
undrrat police, who were recently so extensively employed through-
out France; and one, on his hat getting knocked off accidentally, showed
the mark of the tosause on his head, and turned out to be a priest
belonging to a seminary not far distant. An example will surely be
made of some of these men, who, by their base std treacherous con-
duct, oedema:lr to sully a revolution which has been so happily con-
eluded, and who, by keeping the working classes of Paris (so easily
I excited) in a state of restlessness, cause, through the medium of the
Journals, an opinion to get abroad, that Paris is still in commotion,
than which nothing can be more false—every thing is going on here
in its usual course, all those who were actively engaged in the late
struggle ; have resumed their former occupations, excepting the few I
named to you the other day, who, by an excess of loyalty, still wish
to remain near the King's person—and unless it is that the dirty
white flag has given place to the tri-coloured, so dear to every
Frenchman, that you see Charles X. in the print shops, being chased
from St. Cloud, by the raidilis, in revenge for so many of their
brethren who have been slaughtered by him,—or that you can scarcely
pass a Frenchman who is not singing the Marseilloise or the Pari-
sian, you would not be able to guess that a revolution had taken
place. The National Guards arc being strongly organised, not only
in Paris, but throughout France. Last Sunday an inspection took
place prior to the grand review which is fixed for Sunday next, when
the whole are to be reviewed by the King in the Champ de Mars, and
it is expected that there will be GO,OOO fully equipped, which, con-
sidering the very short time that has elapsed, and that the whole of
the horses, dresses, &e. excepting the muskets, arc purchased by the
Parisians themselves, is truly wonderful. But it is easy •to observe
that the French nation delight in every thing of a military character.
It appears their ruling passion, and they seem eager to gratify it at
any sacrifice. Early in the mornings, in walking the sweets of Paris, I
you are saluted at every spot with " Pork* annex," &c. caused by
the drilling which is going on ; every one appears anxious to be-
come proficient in the new profession he has entered Into, and which
has become quite a hobby. I was in the Champs Elysees at six this
morning, and witnessed the drilling and evolutions of a large party of
the Horse National Guards, who acquitted themselves in a very credit-
able manner.

On Wednesday, several parties of workmen were assembled in dif-
ferent parts of Paris, and paraded the streets, but conducted them.
selves in a very orderly manner; the largest assemblage was that of the
journeymen blacksmiths, which amounted to upwards of 3,000. They
wished to obtain a shortening of their hours of working—twelve, in-
stead of thirteen hours, to which many of the matters have agreed.
There was certainly nothing very unreasonable in such a request,--and
such was the opinion expressed by several of the masters who were
applied to. The national guards, by their judicious conduct, easily
persuaded the men to disperse. Many of them, being fellow-workmen
with those whom they addressed, which consequently gives them a
great influence ; an influence which could not exist with a hired gen.
darmerie. The Consfilutionnel makes the following remarks upon the
proceedings of the late meetings of the working•claases, and alludes to
those who are the cause of their assembling.—" More than a week ago,
many designing persons succeeded in collecting crowds of persons in
different parts of Paris ; but as the bulk of these were composed of
peaceable and well-disposed workmen, :the promoters of the meetings
were disappointed, and the men merely paraded the streets. The work.
men themselves, assisted by others who were attracted to the spot, ar-
rested and gave into the custody of the National Guards upwards of
thirty of the ringleaders. From that time every thing remained quiet;
but the Jesuits and Absolutionists could not long be contented to wit-
ness tranquillity prevail, and the disturbers of the public peace have
again made their appearance. They distribute money to the mem-
bers of the congregation of St. Joseph ; the latter influence others,
and by such means many individuals are made to swerve from their
duty. Hitherto these crowds have contented themselves, as the former,
by conversing together and parading the streets ; but many have been
remarked among them, whose delicate hands and cloquentt language
betray them and their mission. Some of these instigators have been
arrested, and the Commissary of Police has seized at their lodgings
certificates, proving that they belong to the Jesuitical Association of
St. Joseph. These endeavours of a sanguinary and fanatical faction
cannot fail of being again thwarted."

All agree that the foreign powers, tar front taking a hand in thecause
of the Bourbon dynasty, will immediately acknowledge Louis Philip,
and continue to entertain their accustomed good feeling towards France.
The tall of the new Stuarts has been predicted for a long time by all
the Cabinets of Europe, and the various ambassadors have frequently
predicted to their respective Courts, the event as inevitable. Therefore
when the famous ordonnances appeared, the unanimous exclamation of
Mullah', Prussia, tiermany, and Italy, was—the Bourbons are 105 t...-
The Emperor Nicholas was long since aware of it from his correspon-
dence with M. Pozzi di Borgo, who knew so well the situation of our
internal affairs. And although our blind government deserted his alli-
ance in so impolitic a manner, still he does not dream of moving a
mingle soldier against us. It is some years since, when the King of
Prussia, pressed by the Emperor Alexander to declare his opinion upon
the future fate of the Bourbons, replied—" Since you wish me to state
explicitly what I think ?—Well ! my opinion is, that that dynasty
will never remain firmly fixed in France with such a host of emigrants,
who wish to usurp and manage every thing." The same Prince never
ceased to repeat, " I have always predicted the ruin of that family, and
they will fulfil my predictions."
And now for the opinion of the Emperor of Austria. His mind has
been sounded for the purpose of endeavouring to awaken in him a de.
I sire to declare war against us, but this Prince soon dissipated the hopes
of these would-be promoters of evil council. " No, no, I am not for
war, I have already had too much trouble with the French, I have no
wish again to engage with them, and embarrass myself by raising up
fresh difficulties in my ;old age." The other Oourta of Germany
think the same as Austria. The Spanish and Portuguese have too
much to look to at home, even to dream of disturbing our political re-
generation. The whole of Piedmont and Naples must remain tranquil.
The conduct of England towards the dethroned family, proves that they
have no other wish than to leave them to itinish in obscarity an exist.
ei.ce which might have been so noble and happy, and which they have
clouded with dishonour.
It will.be as well to add, that the choice of the Duke of Orleans as
•Kildl, has obtained thaunani.nous asestof all foreign states. Besides,
•t4ey feel secure in reNtrd to whet atightbe•his *Mations, knowing the
character of the elect of the nation. They also feel what ha could do,
plated at the head of such a generous people, if •he were imprudently
attaokodies the midst of reviving liberty."—Consatittionaa. •
