" Be assured, Mr. Editor, that the Ultras, and

tion of France in the trammels of feudal servitude or
monkish superstitior. Amidst the shock of revolu-
tionary elements, a spark has elicited which is che.
risked by the nation, as an equivalent for all their
sufferings. Had not the'late Chamber been dissolved,
it is my conscientious conviction that the dread and
hatred of 29 millions of inhabitants, for the obsolete`
pretensions of strangers, menacing their nearest and
dearest rights. however concentrated and suppressed
by the presence of the Allied Armies, would a little
later have bunt forth with the resistless fury of i

sighted*. bigots and despots that first kindled the
Same, might again have ravaged and desolated
Europe.
" It is not in France that the question which an
English Journal contains, will be 'advanced, What
has the late Chamber done r The repty is ready :
every thing that could rouse the fears of the nation
for their rights, and the purchasers of the national
domains for their property.
" MM. Puyrnorin and Castelbajac made no secret
of their intention of restoring to the Church .its sold
and confiscated lands; the latter denounced their
alienation in the Chamber as a palpable robbery, sad
menaced collecting from 3.50 to 400 millions of francs
from the infinite subdivisions in which it had been
I parcelled out. The surrender of the national domains
[ must have followed. All France teas persuaded that
the motions concerning the Clergy were preliminary
to this step, which, however, would have required
coalesced Europe to execute. Even now one of the
ancient families of the State is reclaiming feudal
homage and revenue at St. Brieai: and when the
Authorities, to put an end to this indecorum, enjoin.
ed the person to desist from pretensions which meaac-
ed the treaquality of the State, and which are di-
reedy abdlished by the Charter, this representative
of an illustrious house declared the intention of sub-
mitting the affair to the Tribunals.
" Consider, Sir, the variety of coercive penal laws
the Chamber has sanctioned, and the intolerable op-
pression of the exclusive Prefects over those whom'
they believed to be of another political persuasion—
that general einoweies which was directed against
everyr!vidual born since the Revolution, or who
ta had a pirt in the Revolution, acd which re-
(lured thousands to beggary and despair. Ido not
[ enter into the quesdrei of the justice of providing for
the Emigrants, but I am developing the causes of the
natural joy with which the intelligence of the disso-
lution of the Chamber was received in the remotest
corners of the kingdom.
' " It is remarkable that the most exaggerated Ul-
tras have been, almost' without exception, ferocious
'Jacobins. I shall have more occasions than one of
[ illustrating this truth, when recording the speeches
of the Deputies of the new Chamber.
" It is reported that M. de Chateaubriaad has
composed another pamphlet, to be published the day
previous to the meeting of the Chamber. For all
reply to the pompous eulogium passed in some papers
on this Gentleman, I shall, without any observation
of my own, submit the following facts to an impar.
tial and enlighted public :
" M. Chateaubriaad, long after the assassination
of the Duke d'Enghien, made the most pompous
euloginm on Bonaparte in his preface to Attila..
" He endeavoured to be named Inspector of all
the Imperial Libraries,.in•whirk he did not succeed.
" In his discos rsebs (leerier, •he panegyeizes the
young Napoleon with poetical enthusiasm. entitling
him • the hope of the world,, the adspicietts boy, &c.
" If you will insert these reminiscences, which I
pledge myself to be cones*, the poblicava be better
enabled to judge of the political consistency of this
Statesman." •
American Papers to the•l9tb ult. stare, that the
Bank of North Carolina bus notified to the Secretary
of the Treasury its intention to resume nth payments
• y the 20th February;. by which it secures to itself
the advantage of haying its paper taken-in.the
don of the rieetitte. Reports had arrived froth'
Naples, that the negociation as to the claims for
Mottaa's spoliatioes was going on favourably.. The,
separation of Main* from Massachusetts, is not likely
tti take place without a new Act of Legislature, as
the votes in favour of it fall short, by 400, of the
majority of five-nintlis, requisite by the late Act.—
Extensive •improvenseots• have been going on in the
City of Washington since the termination of the war.
In the western districts of Carolina there has been
*almost a total failure of the corn crop, owing to.tbe
long continued draught. Many of the farmers were
disposing of their property, and emigrating to other
districts. There bad been a pretty general tall of rain
from Maryland to New Hampshire. Mnl BARCLAY,
[one of the British Commissioners for' settling the
[ boundary, was on'his way to Passamaquoddy.
At Washington, between nine and ten.o'cliock in
the morning of the Bth September, an extraordinary
phenomenon was noticed. The Sun was surrounded
with .a circle. or hale, at the usual diameter, but un-
commonly bright and well defined, being tinged,
especially in it" tipper or wutern pert, with prismatic
colours. Another circle, apparently ot- twice the
diameter of the te`riwitiwe hale, extended westwardly,
and passed through the Sun. The secon4ry kale was
white through its whole circumference ; at the same
time a portion of a rainbow, of perhaps 20 degrees,
;appeared in the north-east, at about 44) derces.above
the horizon.
