We have new before us the Paris Papers of Tues-
day. They du not idorm us that any steps have been
taken to arrest, far less to punish, any of the traitors
who supported BONA!' laic in his recent (but perhaps
not his last) atrocities against the lives and liberties of
mankind. Justice might be satisfied, it is true, without
the public exhibition of executions on the Place de
Glue, or a mitraillade a Ia'BoNaPAKTE at Toulon;
but surely the confiscation of the ill-gotten wealth of
the richest of his supporters, and their condemnation
to hard labour for their lives, to enable them by pe-
nitence and prayer, to make their peace w1:11 HEAVEN,
might reasonably be expected from a ChristianSo-
vtreign like Louts XVIII.

But we regret to say that the Circular of his Mi-
nister Foucirs, to the Prefects, which will b 3 found in
oar columns of to-day, hold.: out no such prospect of
wholesome example to future traitors. In this letter
a sneaking attempt is made to conciliate the Jaco-
bins in France for a season to the Kiso's authority.—
Not a word is said of the sufferings, of the talents
to govern, and above all, of the legitimacy, of his
much injured master. It is in short the appeal, not
of a high-minded. Minister to the dignified and manly
breasts of a loyal and a generous people, but the cold
selfish language of a tralesm to-like policy, which
urges constantly a temporising spirit, ultimately to
secure the pitiful advantages of mere existence as a
nation. This alternate Minister of the Usurper, and of
his lawful Sovereign, coldly tells the Prefects, after a
little special pleading, that 44 without rallying around
the Sovereign, the Allies would not guarantee their
national independence, because the nation itself could
gi%c none." He then says, 44 that he has discovered
g. that true duty and true patriotism of the present day,
consist in rallying around the Throne :" for, as he
says previously, 44 Europe will not give us good con-
d.tions on other terms."

'lle plain Englibh of all this we apprehend to be :
" Good Messrs. Sot as, Nev, LAREDOYERE, and
CARNirr, be not alarmed—l have taken care that not
a h tic of your heads shall be touched—Let us get
ri f the Allies, and then come forth from your
skolking places, and give the fraternal embrace to
your brother jacobins."

CIRCULAR• TO THE PREFECTS OF TUE KINGDOM.

" Gentlemen—Your relations with me establish
two great objects: the restoration of public order
and the pacification of the kingdom.
" The King is acqua:nted with the extent of the
sufferings of the nation : all his efforts have a ten-
dency to alleviate them but we cannot obtain from
Europe good conditions (une tieuation heurtute) until
she perceives in the termination of our disputes and
in the union of the people with the throne, a certain
pledge both of our repose and of her own.
M It is the wish of the King to throw a veil over
common faults and errors: his Majesty has left to
Justice the care of punishing rebellion and treason:
and to prevent ail suspicion, he has designated the
guilty and limited the number. There is security,
therefore, for al : no reslurces, no pretext for dis-
pleasure or moroseness, is left to makvolence. Every
life is under the guarantee of the l.iwc, and under the
egis of a Monarch who wishes to be the father of all
Frenchmen.

" Stablli!), is the first object of the King's thoughts
and of the meavires which he has presented to his
Ministers. Every re-action will be a crime, since it
will be subversive i f that stability : it will disturb
the repose 4 the State, by destroying all confidence.
" When we bend under the weight of• Europe,
allied against an ambition of which we ourselves
were the first victims, let us have at least the conso-
lation that there shall not flow either a drop of blood
or a tear which can be imputed to us.
" The public interests ought to be preferred to all
others. Who, therefore, shall dare to think of per-
sonal vengeance in the midst of our public calamities?
Who shall dare to speak of the triumph of one party,
when.the same evils press upon or threaten all alike ?
There is no longer any hope of safety, nor even any
true honour, but in our union.
" All good citizens can have but one object in
view, that of putting an end to our resentments s ne-
cessity disarms even the noblest courage.
" The wish for reconciliation springs from all
hearts, because it is the expression of all interests: it
will subjugate all parties, and will triumph over their
passions, because all parties are composed of French.
men.

" The advantages which France may hope for
depend in a particular manner on our intimate twiner
with the King; if the nation was not united tolls
Sovereign, we should not receive from the Sovereign
any guarantee for our independence, because we our-
selves could give none for our repose.
" Whatever may be its reverses, a great nation m4y
still, by the voice of its King, demand its rights and
make them be respected, because justice is never af-
fected by the shticks of fortune. The voice of faction
k justly repressed ; it will not succeed even in being
heal..

•1 There is, therefore, a degree in the unfortunate
condition of the crisis of a State, at which necessity
prescribes that we should stop to sacrifice to the pub-
lic good all passions and to think only of the safety
of all. Tine duty, and true patriotism are at pre-
sent to unite in a bundle (ea faheeau) around a
King, whose intelligence and great virtues we have
long experiencel Onr country, in resuming her
rank among idle States of Europe, will find in its
fidelity a durable prosperity. (Signed)

VIENNA, JULY le.
For some days past a number of public functiona-
ries have set of for the Auitrian army in France, in
order to be employed in the administration of the pro-
vinces occupied by the Austrian troops.
Letters from Constantinople of the 26th of June,
state that M. Joubert, well known by previous mis-
sions, arrived in that capital on the 9th, with letters
and proposals from Bonaparte to the Porte; and that
he immediately alighted at the hotel of the French
embassy occupied by M. Ruffin, Ambassador in the
name of Louis XVIII.
Notwithstanding the formal declaration of the
Turkish Government, that k would not adrhit any
Envoys from Bonaparte, nor tolerate the rallying
signs of his adherents, M. Joubert, and his suite, ap-
peared in public with the tri-coloured cockade, and
this example was immediately followed with extreme
tomplAisauce by most of the members of the French
legation, as well as other individuals of that nation.
Besides, signatures were collected for the acceptance
of Bonaparte's new constitution ; and in the night of
the 13th, the royal arms were altered above the gate
of the hotel of Embassy, in the suburb of Pera,. for
'the eagle of Napoleon. The Ottomah Ministry being
informed of this, repeatedly begged M. Ruffin to put
an end to this disorder; but friendly remonstrance
having proved unavailing, a detachment of Janizaries,
by the express orders of the Sultan, proceeded on the
evening of the 15th in front sf the hotel of embassy ;
after various fruitless summonses, the Janizaries for-
cibly took down the arms of Bonaparte, while others
tore the tri-coloured cockade from those whom they
met with that rallying sign. At the same time orders
were expedited to Smyrna, and also to the Ottoman
Admirals who are at sea, not to permit, on any ac-
count, the hoisting of the tri-coloured flag or cockade,
and to see that this prohibition be strictly observed.
