WAS never more pressing and apparent. ltayal

A Private letter from Paris, dated the Il#% Instant, says,
" The ernbarkihg of the R 1141.4111 troops for France gives cosi-
sklerstble UtlC3*.illtK4 to the French Ouverament, though they
endeavour to disguise that fe.eling, by stating that the number of
those tro.ips is small, and only intended to replace a part of the
army of occupation. The fact is, that the Russians have lately
larded in France a con-iderable quantity of artillery and military
stores, and have sent hither a great deal of cavalry by land.—
Their army, when last reviewed, consisted of 6C,000 men. It it
stained iseiweest the BOgian and Prussian armlet, both of which
have received reinforcements. The Duke of Wellington has
ceased to have the supreme command ever since the ittid of May.
The Russian troops, generally speaking, conduct themselves
peaceably ; their officers have special Instructions on that head.
" In rise mean time the French fltriernment are making every
exertion-to stretigthen.their artily, and to conciliate the military.
Some of the half-pay Officers have lately been paid up a part
of dish arrears. Lists have been made our of such as may be
deemed fit for employment on the first emergency.. No means,
are neglected, as far as smiles, courtly words, and decorations
will go, of securing the National Guard, on whom Goverts•
meat place their chief reliance for tranquillity in the Interior.'
The stale of the finances, however, obstructs every plan for the
consolidation of the,Royal power. A fund of three millions bad

Family; but the Prussian Government having made a eery ur.

from its inteaded purpose to appease that Power. 11e revenues

A Guard of Honour marched into the Court-yard
ix, the front of the Queen's Palace at sever. o'clock,
and a.party of the Foot Guards and Lite Guards,
with a numerous body of the Police, were stationed,
in the Park, to regulate the populace and the car..
riages. The company began to ;arise soon after.—
The Palace was additionally illuminated for the
occasion. The grand staircase was divided and
arranged as on the Drawing Room days. At the
top GI the first fight of stars a Yeornan of the Guard
was stationed.

The company were shown into an anti room, ad.
jcining the Grand S.iloon, except the Royal Family,
who turned to the right, and entered by the Queen's
dining-room. The gland Hall was lined with a party
of the Yeomen of the Guard. The Royal Family
were ail received by the Guard-of Honour with mili-
Lay honours, the band playing 66 God save the King."
