London, England, 1842-10-20 00:00:00

We have received the Paris papers of Tuesday,
which contain a variety of articles on the deplo-
rable state of the wine-trade, the right of search,
and the commercial treaties in negotiation or
contemplation by France. The writers in these
journals seem to have a very strange idea of
commercial treaties, and would agree to no con-
dition which did not give all the advantage to
France. If they were left to manage such affairs
France would indeed be isolated; but LOUIS
PHILIPPE and M. GIJIZOT, and the wine-growers
in the south, take a very different view of such
questions, and, being practical men, know that it
would be madness to expect favours from Bel-
gium or England, without giving any in return.
The Courrier Francais has a long article
respecting a report that M. DE ST. AULAIRE had
received instructions from his Government to
propose a modification of the treaties of 1831 and
1833, respecting the right of search. After at-
tempting to defend the conduct of France, in re-
fusing to ratify the last treaty, it adds:—
" But it may be objected that the treaties of 1831
and 1833 are a regulation now in full life, and re-
spected equally by all those who have signed them.
What ! the English cruisers are to dispense, with re-
spect to our trade, with the necessary formalities ;
they are to ill-use our seamen, pilfer and illegally se-
questrate our vessels; the treaties are to serve as a
means of enabling them to oppress our shipping in-
terest, and we are to be expected to maintain them
for their benefit alone I Truly, that is rot possible.
If the English do not give reparation for their wrongs
towards us, we have the right to procure justice for
ourselves. There is no other alternative than this--
England must punish all the officers who have at-
tacked the inviolability of our flag, and indemnify the
shipowners who have been injured, or France is bound
not to renew the warrants of her cruisers. The war-
rants not being renewed, the treaties will naturally
fall to the ground. It is now for the English to re-
fleet whether it would not be better for her to modify
the conventions."
In the same angry spirit the Presse adverts
to a commercial treaty with this country, but
towards the conclusion becomes a little more
placid, on viewing the advantages which the
country would derive from a reduction on the
postage of letters. " The Post-office arrange-,
ment," it states, "can be easily concluded.
Everybody will benefit by it—no private or
public interest can suffer from its consequences
either in England or France. We should, for
our Fart, highly approve of the conclusion of
such an arrangement."
"The Abbe LAIVENNAIS,C' says the Univers, "has
just arrived at Brest, with six (lay) brethren of
the Christian doctrine, who are to embark in
that harbour for the French West India-- islands
Two others are shortly to leave for Cayenne.
The number of these modest teachers, who are
slowly preparing the way for the emancipa-
tion of the slaves in our colonies, is now about
forty." •

The Jburnal de Rheims announces that the
Champaign wine crop would be this year most
abundant, and the produce of the best quality.
Several sales had already been made in the dis-
tricts of Avize and Craniant, at prices varying
from 50f. to 80f. per hectolitre, and some even
sold for 100 f. and 105 f. The value of the 18,283
hectolitres produced by those two districts is es-
titnated at nearly 1,000,000 f.
The Armoricain states, that there are at pre-
sent in progress of construction at Brest, by order
of the Minister of Marine, immense buildings
for a foundry, and for the construction of steam-
boats. On the north of the town the Minister of
War had ordered considerable additions to be
made to the fortifications.
The Charivari contains the following letter,
which that witty journal would lead its readers
to believe was written by the notorious DEUTZ,
the betrayer of the Duchess of BERRY :
Let the Royalists overwhelm me with their con-
tempt, I have not the strength to complain ; but those
who, after having incited my treason, have so well
turned it to their profit, ought, in my opinion, to be
the last to throw the stone at me. 1 allow that all the
world are justified in calling me infamous, and yet
there are some whom I regard as more infamous than
myself. Yes, Sir, let it be well known that all has
not been told on the crime to which I had the mis-
fortune to lend my name. Simon Deutz was willing
to accept all the responsibility of the act for the
miserable sum which was paid for it. But a day
will perhaps come when the veil which now covers
that terrible machination will be torn away, and
each one will assume the part which belongs to him
in the odious scheme of 1832. In the meantime I can
only beg the Orleanist journals to speak of me with a
little more moderation. If they calculate better the
bearing of their insults, they will doubtless compre-
hend that Simon Deutz has been, in the hands of cer-
tain exalted personages, but a vile instrument, and
they will judge it proper to keep silence on his ac-
count. The police, they say, are fatigued with my im-
portunities. I am really desolate. Have I not had
reason in my time to complain of the importunities of
the police ? Alas ! was it not their cowardly and
perfidious solicitations that robbed me'of my honour,
and it can be readily conceived that, however impor-
tunate I may now be to them, I have not the means
of treating them in a similar manner. Strange ! the
police now despise me. They appear to blush at my
acquaintance; but if I had not been followed by
them, with M. Thiers at their head, who will
dare to say that I should not now have been an
honest man ? Remove M. Thiers and M. de
i,Vlontalivet from the history of my life (I will for the
moment only name those two), and I should remain
what I always wished to be, the loyal arid faithful
servant of the august Princess who had ever loaded
me with kindness. How can they then escape from
the odium that is cast upon me, who, by their infernal
seductions, have so cruelly led me on to ruin ? What!
shall the assassin, who for a piece of money murders a
man at the corner of a street, be reputed infamous,
whilst he who placed the poniard in his hand and paid
him the price of the murder is allowed to walk with
head erect, and quietly reap all the profits of the crime?
" As to those honest men who cannot pronounce
my name without a shudder, I ask of them neither
pardon nor pity ; and, nevertheless, if they would be
just, they would look on my part of the infamy as less
glaring, and give a part to those who deserve it. This
would only be distributive justice.
