Murat was still iit Corsica Ott the lst SePtettiber.
An association is forming of certain persons; who,
have figured for the last 25 years, and who purpose
to found a colony at Madagascar. • .
A Morning Journalist expresses himself in very
warm terms respecting the d•smissal of the Duke of
Otranto; and an Evening Journalist has defended
him with warmth. Nothing can 'be better than all
this. His cause may, perhaps, be a good one; but
even the worst of causes, when it Is hopeless. has an
interesting side for honourable minds.
The first ut those Journalists has remarked, very
sagacimi.ly, that the circular addressed by Fouche to
the M ,Ostrates of the departments of the West, and
inserted in some Public Journals, Must have produced
the most dangerous effects; and be thus supports his
reasoning :—•• if the facts related in this circular are
false, the Minister is inexcusable ; if they are true, it
is still worse for him—he ought to be prosecuted
with all th- rigour of the law."
The Advocate for the Minister answers, that the
events related are true, and that the papers to justify
toem ate in existence; that there war nothing to pre-
vent the Minister from publishing them, since their
Publicity is a necessary consequence of the principle
of the responsibility of Ministers.

But what answer will the Advocate make to the
following letter ? Our duty eqmpels us to give it the
greatest publicity :

" PARIS, SZPT. 21, ISIS.

" Sta—What do these Imprudent Journalists mean by pub.
hating a pretended letter of the Government. addrtased to some
Pi otos in the We.teni Departmeut4.

" Do they wasb to spread terror among the acquirers of na•
liana' domains? Do they mph to revive discord, and reanimate
the spirit of party ? 1)o they wash to organise denunciation, and
prepare materials tor new reactions P

" la it, in abort, the tocsin of civil war which they wish to
sound? Will not the publicity of the correspondence alluded to
demonstrate the falsehood of these assertions?
" All these questions will be easily resolved by sensible men.
" As to those who will not or cannot reflect, it Is our duty, as
Deputies trims tile Western Departments, to tell them, that the
idea intended o be conveyed ►n that letter of the situation ot
these Departnit.no, ►s ebstuutely filets, and that la the midst of
the war wtoca the preset.ce of the Usurper had kindled in our
Country, the pelves and property of the acquirers of Na-
tional postman,' have been uniformly respected; that they have
to complain of no measure d:rtctiri against them specially;
that if they nave furnished provaions to the Royal Armies, they
have done so in continua with the other Inhabitants; that If re-
quisitions, necepsary fur the sustenance of armies without pay,
have Non among the sells of war, they mutt be imputed to the
ot the Usurper, and not to a spirit of party or of vengeance ;
that if ante ►solated facts contradict these assertions, they have
bean su oar( tad th y have not came within our knowledge;
and a ally, to generaisar-raception Is the mark of a bad spirit, or

the wool of darproes proj• eta.
