FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

OENERAL LAFAYETTE.
(Prom Tuesday Evening's Gatignani..)

A considerable feeling of uneasiness and apprehension was visible yes-
teniay morning throughout the metropolis; the resignation by General
Lafayette of his command of the National Guards, which had been
mowed on Saturday afternoon, and confirmed by the successive inter-
views of the different Ministers with the General in the course of Sun-
day, was officially made known by the appearance of the royal pro.
c'amnion. announcing that fact, and the appointment of General Alm.
ton Count de Lobau as Commander of the National Guards of
Paris. This proclamation, together with the last order of the day is-
sued by General Lafayette, and the first published by his successor,
Count Lobau, will be found subjoined. Although the nature of
the late discussion in the Chamber of Deputies was such as to
render it almost a matter of certainty that the delicacy of mind, and the
independent spirit of the General would not allow him to retain a situ-
ation, which one of the three powers of the state had stigmatised as
unnecessary and dangerous, it had been hoped that the recollection of
the circumstances under which he had originally accepted it, and the
manner in which, even within the last week, he had employed the power
it conferred for the safety and hsppiness of the country, would have
been so fresh in the recollection of the Chamber, as to induce it to tem-
per the opinions emitted in the hest of debate, in such a manner as to
convince the venerable patriot that, whatever might be the feelings of
the Deputies respecting future appointments, they did not intend to for-
get the line of demarcation which his conduct had drawn between him
and all others ; that in fact, whatever might he the rule they wished to
lay down, they meant to signalise him as an illustrious exception to it.
This, however, was not the case, and about the dine that this became
generally known, it was also rumoured that the Ecoles de Droit and de
Medecine were assembling in great numbers ; that the whole Etat
Major had given in their resignations ; and that all the most popular
members .of the Administration were about to do so likewise. The ap-
pearance of the• Chamber of Deputies, protected by a whole legion of the
National Guards under arms, did not tend to increase the publiecoofi-
dence ; but we are happy to announce that, for the present at least, the
public alarms have not proved well founded. The sitting of the Chamber
passed in perfect tranquillity, and the assemblage of the schools merely
ended in a quiet and orderly procession to the house of Gen. Lafayette,
in the rue d'Aajou, to offer him their respectful homage on the occasion
of his resigning the command of the Guards. The General had left the
Etat to! tjor about one o'clock to go to the Chamber, and it being under.
stood that he would not return thither, the battalion on duty intercepted
his passage, and one of their number respectfully alluded to the circum.
stance, and hoped they might be inform(' of the reasons which separated
their beloved General from them; he, however, declined entering into any
explanations at that moment, and contented himself with eulogizing his
PtICVIIIICT, whose aide.de.camp, he said, he should be proud to consider
himself in maintaining public order. About 3 o'clock the deputation of
the schools, amounting in number to nearly 1,000, proceeded along the
Qt.tts and through the gardens of the Tuileries to the rue d'Anjou.
Their demeanour was perfectly peaceable, and did not even
appear to attract any marked attention from the public as they passed.
On their arrival In the rue d'Anjou they were informed that the Gene-
ral was not yet come home, a cry was heard of a M Chttathre, and some
I,f. the group appeared disposed to direct their steps thither; but while
the point was in discussion a coach entered the street in which wen the
General, his son, his grandson, and M. Odillon Hamm, coming from
the Chamber of Deputies, where (as will be seen by our report of the
proceedings) the General had given to his colleagues a frank and manly
explanation of the motives of his retirement. On entering the court-
yard he was followed by all the students, about 40 of whom entered the
how with him. One of their number explained in a few words the
muse of their visit, and the General, who appeared in excellent
health, and spirits, replied in an energetic and animated manner.
--When he had spoken for a few minutes it was suggested to him
M•tt the body of students in the Court Yard were excluded
front a participation in the great pleasure of hearing his senti-
ments, en which he immediately descended into the court, and the
outer gates being closed, concluded his address there. The following
h nearly the substance of it t--He thanked the deputation for the kind
feelings manifested towards him, and expressed his sense of the conduct
of the young population of Paris in co-operating with the National
Guard in the preservation of public tranquillity. the only solid basis
on which the happiness of the country could be founded. Ile stated
that he well understood and participated in their feelings respecting the
promise made at the Hotel de Ville, of a popular throne surrounded
with Republitan Institutions. His interpretation of that promise dif-
fered in mary respects from that of others, who, however, lie firmly
believed, were actuated by the same desire for their country's happi.
ness. The only difference was respecting the best means of attaining
that object. He added, that his Mend, M. Odilloni parrot, could
assure them that he had held a similar language that morning
in the Chamber. The most important point at present was,
without doubt, the new electoral law. What were to be the
provisions of that law he was not aware; but he could state, that It
would positively be presented to the Chamber on Wednesday next;
and that it would be on a more extended basis than the present one
was certain, since it could not be on a narrower one than it had
hitherto been. He proceeded by assuring the deputation, that they
might depend on his exerting all his Influence in the Tribune to
secure the adoption of as popular a system as possible—(Loud ap-
plause),—and remarked, that he could use that influence in perhaps a
stronger and more unembarrassed manner than he could have done
two days since, " although," added he, " I believe I have never
sacrificed my individuality or personal opinions to any official con.
sideration." (Loud applause, and shouts of " Vine Lafayette.")—
Ile then alluded to his resignation of the command of the National
Guards, and stated that he had just told the Chamber of Deputies that
it was always his opinion that as a general rule the situation of General.
in-Chief of the National Guards of the Kingdom was not compatible
with a Constitutional Monarchy. In the first revolution, 3,000,000 of
the National Guards had come to the resolution of nominating him to
that office, and sent a deputation of from 14.0041 to 15,000 men to an-
nounce it at the Champ de la Federation. He considered it allowable
to play them a little trick ; and before the proposition could be made
to hint obtained the assent of the Constituent Assembly to • law
which rendered it constitutionally Impossible that such an ap-
pointment could take place. He had therefore only to thank
them for their good intentions. (A laugh.) After the days
of July, however, he did not think it without advantage to the coun-
try that he should accept the title offered hint by the Lieutenant-general
of the kingdom and the nation. This situation, however, gave um-
brage to the feelings of some parties ' • it was said that there were two
Kings in France; it was compared to the mayors of the palace in for.
mer times, and these feelings found an echo In the Chamber. He had
therefore resigned at the present time, instead of at a later period. Had
the opinions in question not been expressed, he might probably have
retained the situation some time longer, particularly had war broken
out ; but as it was, he could only consider this circumstance
as an opportunity afforded him of doing what he should otherwise
have done at some subsequent time. He then begged the young
trends who surrounded him to persevere in the paths of order : re.
minding them that their moderate and generous conduct would be the
Lest proof that they were worthy of the liberty they asked fur; and
that if they were guilty of the slightest disturbance or deviation from
the course of legal proceeding, it would be a personal injury to him
at it would immediately be said that he had incited them to it, anci
encouraged their tumultuous assemblages as ovations to himself. This
speech was received with enthusiastic applause, and, after a few wads
from M. Odillon parrot, conjuring the assembly not to give their
enemies a handle against them, by any tumult or disturbance, the
whole deputation returned to their respective schools, without any
maniftstations of disorder. At five o'clock the now Commander: of the
National Guard ttansterred the Etat-Major from the rue de la Chaos.
see d'Antin to the Louvre, whither also were taken the two pieces of
cannon previously stationed at the former place. During the evening
and night every thing remained tranquil.
"ORDER OF THE DAY.
" Upon quitting the command of the National Guards of the king.
dm, General Lafayette purposes to address to them his thanks and his
farewell ; hut he cannot forbear expressing at this moment towards his
brethren in arms at Paris, the sentiments with which his heart over-
flows. His confidence in their attachment and their regret is complete. It
in by redoubling, if possible, their punctuality and activity in the service,
that they will prove them to him more and more. He will fully appro.
elate this new testimony of their affection and their indissoluble union
with himself in their common devotedness to liberty and public order.
The King, in his patriotic foresight, has taken all the measures ewes-
sary. It is with his whole soul, and not without being deeply affected,
that their old and grateful friend dictates these few words for them
"Ike. 27, (Signed) " LAFAYETTE."

"ORDER OF THE DAY.
" Comrades,—The King has done me the honour of appointing me
to the command of the National Ouanis of Paris, a testimony of the
confidence of his Majesty, which is the noblest a Frenchman can re-
cvive. All my efforts shall be exerted to prove myself worthy of his'
choice ; but to accomplish this great object 1 have need of the assist.
anct: of all the National Guards. I shall be happy in meriting this by
following the example of my illustrious predecessor, General Lafayette,
tram whom I have received so many tokens of friendship. My moat
Ardent wishes are for the glory, the proaperity, rod the happiness of
France, under the sceptre of her citizen King. My comrades of the
National Guards will allow me to participate in their glory, by contd.
buting to give effect to their excellent motto. Liberty—Public Order.

•' Inhabitants of Paris--

'' The King has invested me with the honourable but laborious office
cf watching over the capital of the civilised world. the dwelling.plaee
of liberty and wisdom, whose agitations shake all France, and whose
race restores credit and security far and wide. Under 741141 t IMAM of

ou have in December consolidated the eouests of July. Libutty le

Ipliehment of the great work you began. The Government will do
its duty. Agitators shall not with impunity rob the people of re-
pose, and tear them front their occupations. The youth of our
schools will recollect that they owe it to their country to prepare
themselves, by their studies, to supply, at some future day, the places
now filled by us in the conduct of public affairs. Both time and calm
will be devoted to the firm, tranquil, enlightened, and complete discus.
'ion of our rights and interests, which are equally the inheritance of
our brethren of the departments. The security afforded to the employ.
went of capital will restore to the people the work by which they live.
and of which they are deprived by agitation. The example set by
Paris will ensure order, and spread prosperity as it has already spread
the spirit of liberty. I, who have been chosen by the King for having
in July partaken of the labours of the heroic population of the capital,
will devote myself entirely to the defence of their repose, and endeavour
to render myself worthy to be called their friend.

A union has taken place between the deputies of the two fractions of
the left, one of which is placed at the extreme right, and at the right, in
order to defend, with or without the support of the Ministry, the demo.
eratical part of our constitution, and to oppose the two centres of the
Chamber which are directed by M. de Martignac, and M. Dupin. It
is principally composed of new deputies, who, until now, had remained
spectator% of the debates of the Chamber, and bad not manifested any
political system. It is said, tha M. Fougerost has quitted, at last,
the situation he held in the deparanent of the Finances, but in which-
he seemed to be fixed for life. lie is to be succeeded, It is said, by 111.

LETIER IN THR TIMES.
PARIS, Tursa.r Evzsixo.

I had apprised you, in my letter of Sunday, that General
Lafayette bad transmitted his resignation to the King of his
command of the National Guards, and that the council were
sitting upon the subject of a change of Ministers. The deci-
sion, however, was not what the extreme popular party ex-
pected : the advocates of republican institutious have gone
out, and more moderate men replace them.
The causes of Gen. Lafayette's resignation are not yet
generally known. The good old man has, with the most
virtuous and spotless heart. the greatest facility of being in-
fluenced for the moment by a few staunch republicans, who
are his most constant companions. These men will not wait
to let the new Monarchy consolidate itself ; they wish to
precipitate the march of popular institutions, regardless of
the jealous eye which other governments have, at this mo-
ment, upon the passing events of France, and the influence
which even the shadow of republicanism casts upon
her external relations. The King, swayed ultimately by
these conflicting parties, and in direct personal commu-
nication with them all, is certainly timorous and inde-
cisive. The semblance of an attack upon the national in-
dependence would send him forth, at the peril of his life, to
resist such an abuse of power : but he has no muter mind in
his councla to direct or control the parties who are, at this
moment, besetting the throne with new theories of adminis-
tration • and hence the uncertainty of the line of policy which
this Governmrnt means to take, at a crisis requiring the ex-
ercise of sound judgment and great energies, to secure its
influence in the councils of other states.
You will see from the journals the partial change which
has taken place among the ministers' but it has not yet been
mentioned, that although General Lafayette refused the
earnest, indeed supplicating, entreaties of the King, to retain
his command of the National Guard ; he went to the Palace
at three o'clock on the following morning to revoke his re-
signation, but the King replied, it was then too late; for at
midnight General Lobau had received his commission.
The Minister of Public Instruction threatens to proceed
harshly against the students who signed the protestation
at the Pantheon, and the Polytechnic scholars who signed
the same document are confined to their rooms. They are
daily asked for some signs of repentance, which are as yet
withheld, and the government threatens declination, but the
dispute will no doubt be amicably adjusted. A number of
students yesterday, in defiance of the frowns of superior au-
thority, went in a body to General Lafayette's private house,
to express to him their cordial regard. The congregation of
these young men in the neighbourhood of their colleges led
to some alarm, and by heat of drum about 12,000 of the Na-
tional Guards were called into the streets to keep order. An
absurd rumour prevailed, that the students meant to storm
the Chamber of Peers and Deputies. The military repaired
forthwith to each. Idle crowds, of course, collected to gaze at
these military preparations, which lasted until nightfall. The
soldiers then returned to their civil occupations, and the stu-
dents to their homes, after an affectionate interview with the
venerable object of their attachment.
Of this interview there have been this day various accounts
published in the journals—that in the Cuurrier Francais is
the most detailed which I have seen ' • but I have heard from
a student, that Gen. Lafayette added tLese remarkable words
—" that if the Law of Elections, which is to be introduced
on Wednesday, be not satisfactory to you, return to me, and
you will find me here." Ido not see this declaration given
in any of the published accounts, but one of the young gentle-
men present at the time assures me that be heard the words.
As there was a great crowd, and much confusion at the mo-
ment, I should hope he is mistaken ; for the perpetuity of
these cabals of juvenile politicians is, in this city, where stu-
dents have a peculiar popular influence, most unfavourable to
the stability of that public order for which they are never-
theless most clamorous declaimers.

I ought to mention to you that the Duchess of Dino, who
was recently here, after attending her relative, Prince Tal-
leyrand in London, has been gossipping in the Parisian
saloons about your new ministers, who, " in her opinion,"
are not firmly seated in the government. Your Court Cir-
cular never mentioned that this lady attended the French
Ambassador in any political capacity which could give her
access to State secrets. Y.

CHAMBER OF DEPUTl—.—Rit—gyrnwo or Dzc. 17.
The recent occurrence: having excited an extraordinary degree of in-
terest, the sitting was fully attended by bon. deputies, and the galleries
sere absolutely crowded. All the poets of the National Guards were
doubled. Long before the President took the chair, a great number of
deputies were in the Chamber, and animated convereadess were held in
all pars. Upon the entrance of M. Nude, new Prefect of Pollee, he
was congratulated by many of his hon. friends. Count Lobes, new
Commandant-General of the Paris National Guards, was rested by U.
Charles Du in, whe shook hands with him cordially. U. OM= Bu-
nt was in his place at the extreme gauche.
The President took the chair at half-past one o'clock, when M.Boissy
d'Anglas handed him a paper. The President announced, that U.
Bolasy d'Anglas had withdrawn his preposition, and laid another upon
the table, which would be examined in the committee tn.:narrow.—
(Murmurs.)
M. de Corcelles--It is indecent: the Chamber should not be trifled
with thug. (A bus of disappointment was heard in the galleries.)
Several Members—U. Bailey d'Anglas cannot withdraw his pro-
position.
The President—A member can withdraw a proposition when it has
not been reed or explained. This point is established by numerous
precedents.

At this moment Messrs. Witte, Madison, and d' t, and Mar-
shal Souk, entered and took their seats on the M bench. M.
Dupont (de l'Eure), upon entering, conversed for a few minutes with
M. Beranger and Mars Souk, and afterwards went and took his seat
at the eztreme gauche. by the side of M. Damon. The honourable
dcputy was immediately surrounded by his colleagues, who shook
hands with him.

The Chamber then to the discussion of the articles of the
law project relative to National Guards.
At this moment General Lafayette entered the Chamber, and was
reeeleed with very general tokens of applause—upwards of 100 members
went and shook him by the hand. He then went up to the Presi-
dent's desk, and after holding a short conversation with him, left a
paper in his hands.

General Lafayette then rose to address the Chamber, when a profound
silence immediately prevailed. lie said, "In a neighbouring nation
it is the custom when a citizen retires from a distinguished office. for
him to come before his fellow citizens and explain the cause, and I am
sure the Chamber will grant me the same favour. (Hear.) I always
have considered that the post of Commandet-in-Chiet of the National
Guards of France was incompatible with a constitutional monarchy.
except under circumstances of the most absolute necessity. It was
this conviction that led me, in 1790, when 3,000,000 of National Guards
wished to elect me their commander, at the federation by one thou.
sand four hundred deputies, to apply to the constituent assembly,
and urge them to issue a decree in opposition to this desire.—
Such still was my opinion when the Lieutenant. General of the King.
don, who has since become our King, wished me to accept the same ap-
pointment, and I felt myself bound to accept it, but always retaining the
intention of laying it down, as soon as I was satisfied that it was no
longer necessary for me to retain it, earlier if peace remained unbroken,
but at a later period had war ensued. The declared opinion of the
Chamber has hastened the period, and out of respect fur it I have not
waited till the law was submitted to the other branches of the state. It
is merely a matter of date ; but I should be deeply hurt if any one ims.
gined—and no one who has been acquainted with me during the last 54
years of my life, can believe—that my conduct has been dictated by any
personal feeling: I will go further and say, that this opinion of
the Chamber has afforded me an opportunity. The high autho-
rity with which I was Invested has given umbrage which you, gen.
denten, must have beard of; and this umbrage has even been felt in
certain diplomatic circles. The cause is now at an end, and I bevel
now no other honour than that of being one of your colleagues.—
One word more, Gentlemen,—l should not have given in my re.
'lgnatius*, which the King has accepted with Ell that goodness
Ihe has ever shown towards me, before the 'crisis we have now hap.
pily got over was at an end. At this time my conscientious love of
public order is satisfied, but I cannot say phe same of my con.
selentious love of liberty. We must all re the programme an.,
nounced at the Hotel de Ville—A popular throne, supported by re.
Ipublican institutions. It was accepted, but we have not all put
lthe same construction upon it ; it has not always been interpreted by
the Councils of the King in the same sense in which ft was understood
by me, who am more impatient than others that it should be realised
and whatever may have been my personal independence in all situations,
I feel myself at the mount moment more at my case in discussing_sn
opinions with you. For the rest, there are points upon which we shall
alvthweatrabeatin acco
me rd,
—we
from a shall
"rata think,un that in the obsinimeasarssi;
taken at the revolution of July, we not only did that which we verily be.
lieved was for the best, but that we did all slat was possible to be done. I
am the more convinced of this, since I have become intimately as
quaintsd with the personage we have placed on the throne. On throw.
Lag cif my uniform, I have not changed my motto—Liberty public
eider. Besides, how many legal means we have of expressing our
thoughts and of making our wishes known s—for us there is the tribune
of this Chamber, and for every citizen there is the press, 'stitch has
rendered the country so many services ; and them there Is the peaceable
mode of petitions. Having thus yielded to my desire of laying all my
sentiments before you, I trust I shall still sod ever retain your esteem
and friendship (applause.)
After further discussion,
The President reminded the Chamber that the next subject on the
order of the day was the consideration of the second project of the go.
Tasman relative to the of the Garden Mobile&
Seven' memben wished the dientasion to be postponed till to.
morrow.

The President said that this would be desirable, considering bow many
hours a legion of the National Guards had been soda arms, in order to
protect the deliberations of the Chamber. Adjourned.

The Nouse/We 'waists asserts that an assembly is to be named by
the nation in order to draw up the project of a constitution, to be sub.
milted to the sanction of the electoral assemblies. This assembly is to
have no legislative nor adminbarative authority; it is merely a com-
mission named by the people to give an opinion upon the institudoes
that it may be proper to adopt. This journal observes that at the
present moment public order, the peace of this fine canton, and the
oaths that hind the people to the constituted authorities, reader it the
duty of the inhabitants to respect the established order of things, and
the decisions of the authorities.

We extract the following from the Cassette of St. Potersiirgh of
the 28th ult :—" The Emperor has this morning received a further re.
port from the Grand Duke Constantine upon the situation of affairs in

the rebellion, not to resist the mutineers, and thus avoid everything
which might afford a pretext fur a false interpretation of the motives of
' the revolt, and at the same time facilitate the means of acquiring an
insight into the object which its promoter had in view, his Imperial
Highness gave repeated and positive orders to the troops by which he
was surrounded, to abstain from all offensive 'pasties., but, at
the same time, to repel with firmness every attack that
might be made upon them. In conformity to this resole.
tioo, his Imperial Highness remained in the first position
he took up in the village of Wieba, after establishing a
wwomunication between the opposite banks of the Vistula at the
village of Villanowa, a passage acmes which had been cut off by the
rebels. In the interval, the troops that accompanied the Grand Duke
were augmented by the arrival of some companies of Carbineers, the Ist
and Si regiments of his Majesty's Polish Chasseurs, and the grenadier
company of the oth regimen; of Infantry. Besides these, the artilkry

Gore, sour miles from 11'arsaw, joined his Imperial Highness with ex-
tras dietary celerity, untie? Major Generals Korff and Herstenewig. and
carried the artillery which remains with the Grand Duke to twenty
pieces of cannon. The subsistence of these troops has been fully pro-
vided for by the care of his Imperial Highness. The tun,ult at War.
slaw has subsided in some degree, and it may be confidently presumed
that a very considerable portion of the inhabitants took no part is it.
Yesterday, after the parade, the Emperor called his officers around him,
and communicated to them the events of Warsaw. These faithful de-
fenders of their country embraced the knees and kissed the bands of his
Majesty; renewing in the presence of Goa their oath if allegiance, and
their inviolable resolution to shed the last drop of their blood for the
Emperor Nicholas.'
