FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Messager des Chambres, June 7.)
PARIS, JUNE 6.—The respective situation of the
three Powers, parties to the Treaty of the 6th of
July, at preeent engages public attention.
It is asked whether Russia has remained within
the limits of the Conventions agreed upon between
the Cabinets—whether the intervention of the
Imperial arms in the Ottoman territory, and, above
all, the blockade of the Dardanelles, are not a mani-
fest violation of the Treaty—an extension given to
the object which the parties who signed the Treaty
proposed to themselves ?
[The Messager, giving the substance of an article
in the Times relative to the naval force under Admiral

Sir P. Malcolm, and its sufficiency to put an cud to
the blockade of the Dardanelles, says]--
" What are we to think of this language? Will
England become hostile, menacing, towards Russia ?
Will it consider itself as wholly released from the
Treaty of the 6th of July ? We do not believe this
to be the idea of the English Government ; it is,
therefore, merely as political writers that we shall
reply to considerations, which have in them nothing
authentic or official.
" Let us first state a fact. Hitherto Nothing has
been done by Russia, that can be considered as a
violation of the Treaty concluded between the three
Powers.
" When in the last Session explanations were
given respecting the. Russian movements, it was
clearly shewn tha . it was completely foreign to the
views of the Tl•eaty that Russia derived its right
to make war from grievances of its own, which it
alleged against the Porte, and that therefore the
great Powers could mix in the intervention only to
treat upon the general results as connected with the
balance of Europe.
" This principle was clearly established ; Russia
commenced the war without opposition ; results of
various kinds occurred in its progress.
" Thfs year a more extensive plan for the cam-
paign seems to have been adopted ; Russia acts on
several points; the invasion by land is accompanied
by the blockade of the Dardanelles.
" Is this blockade sanctioned by the rights of bel-
ligerent Powers ? France has never recognised any
blockade but one de facto. The English maritime
law is of more extensive application ; the annals of
Lloyd's Coffee-house prove this : during the late
war with France the practice was carried to an ex-
travagant extent.
" It is not our business to justify the consequences
that may result from the blockade of the Darda-
nelles. If the Russian squadron does any injury to
neutrals beyond what the law of nations permits, if
its l':eckade is not effectual, but a mere declaration,
it is certain that the neutral Powers are entitled to
protest against an extension of the rights which war
gives, but it is impossible to deny the right of
gerents to establish respectively blockades, de facto,
to hinder the employment or development of their
forces.
" There cannot, then, be a necessity immediately
to throw the English naval force into the Mediter-
ranean. If the object were to protect English com-
merce, nothing could be more just ; but a force
which would evidently raise the blockade, would
change the respective situation of the states ; it
would make England the enemy of Russia; it would
put an end to the neutrality.
" As for the annihilation of Turkey as a power,
the object supposed to he entertained by Russia,
, the last campaign has proved that it would not be
an easy 'measure' even on the supposition that the
Cabinet of St. Petersburgh had not openly com-
menced its plans, and the limits within which it will
confine itself.
" Besides, what is the proof by which we can
discover such a design ? And are these proofs suf-
ficient to authorise hostilities ?
" Let the limes reflect on this question ; it will
see that it has reasoned with a little precipitation."
The Message,. and Gazette dc France contain no
news from the theatre of war, so recent as that al-
ready received by other channels.

CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES.—SaTURDAr.

M. SEPPEY made a Report in the name of the
Commission of Petitions,
M. SAI'IIOI, DE G LAI E: ( Seine and Marne), prayed
that the Communes should appoint their mayor
and municipal councils. He complained of several
abuses, and of the mode in which the mayors were
appointed. The Commission therefore proposed to
pass to the Order of the Day on the former part of
the petition, and the reference to the Minister of
the Interior of the latter part, which pointed out
abuses in the appointment of the mayors.
Mr. MARECIIAL insisted on the reference of the
whole petition to the Minister.
M. MARTIGNAC.—The reference of the petition,
as far as it concerns the nomination of the Com-
munes, would be without result. I oppose that re-
ference formally.
M. MoNTBEL.—The right of petition, securing
the citizens against all grievances, is an element of
order ; hut if it is tnade to serve as a means of call-
ing individuals without office to call in question all
our laws, the Charter itself, you render the right of
petition the most active means of disorder and dis-
turbance. We have been affected, since the com-
mencement of the Session, by the great inconve-
niences which many petitions addressed to us bring
with them. We have so far felt them, that to pre-
vent the scandal which some endeavour to excite in
our sittings, we have rarely contested the reference
of those petitions when demanded. It would be
well if we were all equally convinced of this truth ;
we should not then be' so often exposed to danger-
ous and afflicting discussions; we should not hear
fatal recollections renewed ; we should not now hear,
at the Tribune, that the Constituent Assembly had
annihilated the barbarity to which France was pre-
viously exposed.—(Violent interruption.)
M. TRACY.—This question extends to a general
attack on the right of petitioning. You admit the
right of presenting petitions with respect to private
interests : well ; every general interest is to each
individual a private interest.—(Numerous voices on
the left—" That's true.")
M. RAMBATEAU supported the proposal of the
Commissi.n.
The reference to the Minister of the Interior was
then, put to the vote. The two Sections of the
right and the left almost balanced each other.
Messrs. Berbis and Treissac, and other members of
the centre right, declared for the affirmative, and
many members of the centre left voted for the ne-
gative.

Two trials being insufficient, the House proceeded
to a division. The scrutiny took place amid incon-
ceivable agitaticn.—The following is the number of
votes—white balls, 130 ; black balls, 160-310.

rillw that he will not recognise the existing Ordi-
nance relatiVe to the Estates, on the ground that it
was extorted from the Government during his tni,
nority. They say that was not the case ; and that
if the Duke perseveres in hi§ telltsal, they have no
alternative on theii• side but to apply to the Getman
Diet, end submit to its decision the question of the
alidity of the Ordinance in question.
BRUSSELS, JUNE 2.—Some of our Journals say
that his Majesty has received at Ghent the news
that the newly-appointed Bishops of Ghent, Tour-
nay, and Liege, had been proclaimed at Rome.
THE HAGUE, JUNE 4.—We regret to learn that
M. -Adrian Francis Goudrian, Inspector-General of
the Canals, &c. died on the 2d inst. at Ityswick.
BERLIN, JUNE I.—A private letter from Poland
says, " Rus.!its does much to attach Poland to itself;
formerly the roads were the worst possible, now we
every where find them convenient and in good order.
The country has a better appearance. In, the towns
beggary and filth have vanished; yet it seems very
difficult to make the Poles forget that they were
once a powerful and independent nation."
