FRANCE-

Ancona evacuated, the election of the Prince of Cobourg
decided, and the approaching Issue of our differences with
Don Miguel ; these are the three questions which now occupy
all minds. For Poland, we cannot believe but that its
salvation is assured, a salvation which it owes to itself alone;
or rather, it will be saved in spite of the efforts of the powers
which surround it, by surmounting all the difficulties which
have been thrown in Its way. The election of the Prince of
Saxe-Coburg appears to us to have brought about the de-
finitive solution of the Belgian question, in all that which the
question had of European. All chance of war is removed
from that side. The good intention and perfect harmony of
France and England have incontestibly produced this result
so desirable—Messager.

The French Cabinet is in the most lively joy at the elec.
tion of Prince Leopold. It is a curious thing to remark,
that the choice of the Duke of Nemours inspired a leas per.
fect satisfaction. Belgium, under English influence, appears
to its eyes a combination more interesting, than Belgium
under a French Prince, which was neither more nor lea than
an approaching union to France. It is a very national man-
ner of observing our exterior politics; it is one of those
generosities which we cannot very well understand. That
which gives enthusiasm to the Ministers of the Palais.
Royal, is, that they consider the Belgian question as a
finished affair ; because the Belgians haven King, they con-
sisin that they have nothing more to desire ; for the grand
want of nations, now-a.days, is royalty !—which renders all
those, who consent to make sacrifices to wear a crown, wor.
thy of the devotion of Cortina.— Courier Francois.
The men of the German Legion, stationed in depot •
Usr-le-Duc, continue to desert. Twenty-two of them have
been retaken by the National Guards of the Meuse, and con.
veycd to the prisons of Bar-le-Duc.

The Nantes Paper, Lc Breton, states that 500 muskets
and 25 barrels of gunpowder, lately landed from an Eng.
lish vessel on the coast, at Saseau, in Itlorbihan, have
been seized by the Authorities of Vannes, and taken to that
town.

Le Consfilutionnel argues that the conduct of England in
not having taken measures to have the conditions Insisted on
by the Belgian nation complied with before the election,
and thus consolidate and secure the independence of the
throne before it was offered to Prince Leopold, affords ground
for suspicion that the British Cabinet never seriously in
tended the prince to become King of Belgium.

Le Journal des Commerce and Le Courtier Francais
conclude, that even should Prince Leopold be elected King
of Belgium, he could not accept the Crown on the conditions
attached to it, by the decree adopted in the last Session of
Congress, viz.—that the King can only be inaugurated after
having sworn to maintain the Constitution of the king.
dom and the integrity of the territory, u determined by

Lc Temps still harps on the question of the want of
openness in Government, and displays no little soreness at
not being as much in the ministerial confidence as it pro.
bably thinks it ought to be. It appears dissatisfied with
every thing, and now begins to argue that the election
of Prince Leopold will be disadvantageous both to Belgium
and France. It expresses astonishment that a Protestant
Prince, connected with the Holy Alliance, and allied to
the House of Nassau, can be thought fit to reign over a
Catholic State, founded on the principle of insurrection,
and violently wrested from that very House of Nassau. It
then indulges in somewhat gloomy forebodings as to the
rums; fearing that the means by which Government has
endeavoured to preserve peace at any sacrifice, may ulti-
mately have the effect of producing war under the most
disadvantageous circumstances. In conclusion, It remarks
that want of candour has occasioned the downfal of every
dynasty which has adopted that system of policy, and ap-
peals to the future to prove whether the present Ministry
ought to consider itself more firmly fixed than a dynasty.
Le Temps concludes that no difficulty will arise to prevent
Prince Leopold accepting the Ciown ; it is for the Interest
of England that he should do so, and means will therefore
be easily found to induce the Conference of London to con-
sent to the adjunction of Limbourg, Luxembourg, and Zea-
land Flanders to Belgium. France must endeavour to con.
sole itself for the humiliation of seeing Belgium separated
from it by a formidable barrier, and thrown open to English
industry, by the consideration that the internal peace of the
country will be facilitated by it, inasmuch as Belgium will
no longer furnish the agitators with the means of creating
disturbances. The most important result of the Belgic
question, however, it considers: to be the recognition of the
Holy Alliance of election dynasties as resulting from revolu-
tions, a recognition which must be followed on the same
principle by the acknowledgment of the independence of Po-

plimentary notice of the Monifeur, as proving the absurdity
vf opposing the principle of universal suffrage in the munici-
pal and legislative elections, on the ground of Its being pre-
judicial to public order.

Le Journal des Debate concludes its arguments on the
question of the electoral mandate, by quoting the 7th Article
of the 3d section of the Constitution of 1791, which is in
these words :—" The representatives nominated by the de-
partments shall not be the representatives of a particular de-
partment, but of the whole nation, and no mandate can be
j:ven to them." It then maintains, that although this article
1, not in words in the Charter of 1830, its principle pervades
it were it otherwise, we should have to return to the States
Caleral and the imperf.ct liberty of the middle ages; thus
destroying the fruits of the revolution of 1789.
31ausiria. Es, JUNE I.—Our superior authorities have
just left for Tarascon : did the events of that city appear,
nil the present, too little serious? It was in fact nothing:
tw•o regiments in full revolt ; a peaceable population put out
of the law, sabred and massacred by a ferocious soldiery ;
two hundred citizens; the greater part mutilated in this as-

their executioners ; a city without magistrates delivered during
several days to all the miseries of anarchy ; a French city

spared to a place taken by assault! Wbo will believe it?
