FRENCH PAPERS.

We have received Paris Papers of Saturday. Friday
having been the anniversary of the birth ofLoutsXVl 11.
these Journals are principally occupied with details
of festivities and rejoicings which took place on the
occasion. It was of course a Court-day. All the
Sovereigns, the Ministers, and great men, who now
honour Paris with. their presence, paid their congra-
ttil?tury respects to the KING, and throughout the
metropolis the usall demonstrations of jry wer:
exhibited.

The trial of /sky has not yet commenced. His wife
continues to exert herself to obtain his pardon, but her
efforts must prove unavailing. The welfare of society
demands that men of his stamp and character, when
once brought within reach of the law, shall be impar-
tially judged by it, and brought under its inflictions.
He has demanded to be tried by a Council composed
of Maishals. This may be his idea of a trial by his
Peers, and, practically considered, would be hailed
by many as the best mode of trial that could pos.
sibly be devised. It would be exceedingly conve-
nient, for instance, for certain individuals, when car-
ried to the Old Bailey, to be permitted to send for a
jury to the Hulks, at Woolwich.
His demand reminds us of the sagacity of General
EXCELMAM about a year ago'. He informed the
Minister that he would surrender and take his trial,
as soon as he should find, by the publication of the
natbes which were to compose the Court, that he was
to be tried by men of honour. His crime was so fatly

established as to dfy td CO:ninon iense and tiling in

date of the Sovereigns now at Paris.
Tnc Parisians, indeed the French generally. where-
ever the Prussian military have made their appear-
ance, complain loudly of the insult and abuse to which
they are compelled to submit : our limits, however,
do not permit us this day to enter upon that subject.

mal visit paid on Friday to the King of FItANCE by
the Emperors of Ruesra and Amirnros. the Kiag of
PRUSSIA, the I'rince•of ORANGE, the Prussian Princes,

&c. on the occasion of the birth-day of the French
Sovereign. His Majesty on the same day received

the felicitations ,of the Foreign Ambassadors, and

tidople. The rest of the ofEzial paper is filled with
an Ordonnance for new modelling the Council of
State and lists of the*Members.
