" Who runs may read."

r O~.~FSsT7~

Several of our Paris Contemporaries devote con-
siderable space to comments on the Report of the
Committee of the Chamber of 'Peers on the Regency
Bill, but they are without interest. It will be suffi-
cient for us in our notice of them to say that they are
in the usual spirit of party praise or censure, being
bestowed rather according to the general political
opinions of the commentators, than the real merits of
the document under consideration.

The Commerce says :—." A great change is to take
place in the beginning of October in the troops com-
posing the garrison of Paris and :the camps. It is
stated that those about to be removed-from Paris will
be previously reviewed by the Duke de Nemours."
A letter from Athens, in the Augsburg Gazette,
states that an intimation had been received there from
Paris, that M. Piscatory was about td be created a
peer, and sent as Ambassador to Gteece.
The Univers states that the Spanish Government
has under its consideration a proposition for the build-
ing of sixty vessels of war, twenty of which are to
be iron steamers, within a period of four years, the
contractors for the building of them to be paid by a
privilege to cut down timber in the forests of Libiena,
for exportation. We much doubt the accuracy of this
statement.

It appears, by a communication from the Prefect of
the Eastern Pyrenees to the Spanish authorities, that
most of the Spanish rebels who recently fell into the
hands of the French have been sent to Calais on their
way to England. The three brothers and nephew of
the famous Felipo, who was shot by the Spanish
troops, have had Aurillac assigned to them as their
place of residence.
