PARIS, Nov. 27. 5

Extract of a private Letter from Paris, dated on Saturday
evening : —The language of the journals of all parties indi-
cate an expectation of war. The Temps, after commenting
at some length on the letter of the Emperor of Russia, and
on the dispositions of the cabinet of St. Petersburgh,towards
France, which are not entirely veiled by the polite terms of
this document, observes that France has now no option-1
the immediate display of her resources can alone intimidate
her foreign, and domestic enemies. The Temps considers
the preparations and activity of Marshal Soult, will ensure
the independence of this country. Before the end of a
month, 150,000 men are to be stationed on the northern
frontiers, and it is said that an extraordinary credit of 130
millions will be called for, and placed at the disposal of the
minister of war.

In the sitting of the Chamber of Deputies yester-
day, M. Dupont (do l'Eure) separated himself from
the extreme quartre. The question under debate regarded
the magistracy, which has undergone no change, but that
occasioned by voluntary resignation, since the revolution.
M. Dupont pronounced a discourse which brought forth
great applause from the centre, but which was in direct op-
position to those,who would wish to see a total change as to
the persons who fill high judicial situations. General Ge-
rard is preparing to inspect the fortresses in the north ; and
it said that General Hariapo is also to depart for a consider-
able military inspection, which is to take place on the south-
ern frontiers:
The Journal du Mange mentiaas the fact of two French'
vessels having been fired at, from the Spanish fort of Ta-
rifa, at the moment the French vessels hoisted' the tri-
coloured Rags on passing the fort, and calls the immediate
attention of the Government to an insult, which
arises from the hatred borne by Spain to the co-
lours of France. A letter from Frankfort states,
that a Note has been addressed by the Cabinet
'of St. Petereburgh, to all the Powers of Europe, di-
rt-tting their attention to the revolutionary tendency of wes-
tern Europe, and in which France still participates. It as-
serts, also, that the Emperor Nicholas has invited Prussia
to display a considerable military force upon the frontiers
of Belgium, to act against that country ; in cue the con-
ferences at London do not put an end to the civil dis-
sensions of that country ; or that the Belgians should re-
fuse to confer supreme power on the Prince of Orange.
It is said even that Russia persists in the resolution of
placing the Prince of Orange on the throne of Belgium,
without relinquishing his right to Holland. Prussia is,
in fact, augmenting the number of her troops in the
Rhennish provinces, and principally on the frontiers of
Belgium. Yet it is hoped that these dissensions will take
a pacific turn, and it is generally believed that England
and France will contribute to the maintenance of peace
on the Continent.

The Temps also contains news from Lisbon, by which it
appears, that the policy of Don Miguel is suddenly and en-
tirely changed. Prisoners for political crimes have been set
at liberty, end the King himself has annulled sentences
pronounced by councils of war, against several officers ar-
rested for liberalism. Don Miguel is to be seen every day
in the streets of Lisbon testifying perfect confidence and
affability. Petitions are constantly presented to him, which
he receives with condescension, and with every appearance
of feeling towards the petitioner, whom he generally satisfies
and relieves.

The reports of the success of Gurrea in Spain, and of the
wounds and danger of the Count d'EApagne, are entirely
without foundation. The Captain-General of Catalonia ar-
rived on the evening of the 15th inst. at Puycerda, with
about 500 men, whom he stationed in the square before the
town, in the direction of France. Poets were instantly
established on different points; among the rest, of Bourg
Mudams ; and it was shortly known that these extraordinary
measures were taken, in order to cut off all communications
with France. All French persons who were at Puycerda
have been sent away from that place, and the Spanish in-
habitants have been ordered not to leave it on pain of death.
Any Frenchman who enters the Spanish territory, is to be
arrested, and conducted to the prison of Barcelona. General
Mons joined the Count d'Edipagne with about 400 men, at
Puycerda. Thus about 1,200 men are stationed on this
point, which leaves little fear of attack."

CITY, ONII O'CLOCK
Consols whicb left off on Saturday at 82 for the ac-
count, opened this morning at 82i, since which the mar-
ket has improved to 83i, at present may be quoted at 83.
In the Foreign Market nothing doing as yet. •
The express from Paris this morning brings no news of
importance ; the Rentes come lower.

It is reported that private letters from Paris bring a re-
port of several failures in that capital.
Consols, which were in the early part of the morning 82.
for the account, soon after took a sudden start, and were
done at 831, but this improvement did not continue long,
and they again went down to 820, at which price they are
at present, supposed to be owing to unfavourable accounts
from Paris, particularly in the commercial interest.
Letters are in town from Rio Janeiro, of the 28th Sept.
but they do not bring any political news. A report prevails
that a negociation is going on with the bank to take the ex-
chequer bills out of the market. In the Foreign market,
Spanish bonds have improved to 16.

With reference to the Extraordinary Gazette in our first
page, and in addition to the details which will bo likewise
found in this day's STAR, we have to mention two reports
which have just reached us ;—one, that as the waggoner of
Mr. Goulburn was coming to town, from the neighbourhood
of Leatherhead, be saw a tremendous blaze from an adjoin-
ing hayrick, which had been set on fire by some incendiary ;
and that serious disturbances still continue at Wycomb.
We are assure, from competent authority, tdat Prince
Metternich, after having devoted the fifth of a century to
erecting castles in the air, over which the tri coloured stand-
ard now waves triumphant, intends to retire from the stage
of political intrigue,and devote the remaining days of an ac-
tive, if not a well-spent life, to rustication in his " own vine-
yard." His Highness cannot better evince his shrewdness :
his time is come ; or, rather, it has past... Court Journal.
Sir James Burrough, late one of the Judges of the Common

nefarious plans were, however, frustrated by Sir James and
his family setting off for London in the dead of the night.
