The Paris Papers, which arrived last night, are chiefly
occu, led with the affair of the National Guards; and
it is not necessary to adduce a stronger proof of the
intense interest it still continues to emite amongst the
Public. As the Kitts; has accepted the resignation of
the Duke of Douniaweicis; It sham that he is deter.
mined to support M. de VILLELL notwithstanding his
loss of popularity—a resolution in which Mere-may be
more 'magnanimity than wisdom. Count VILLILI is
certainly a clever man ; but if his abilities were incont-
parably greater, we doubt whether he ought to be re.
stained, after having lost the conldence of the nation.
No merit in a Minister can compensate fbr such wl.rss.
and no Sovereign would act wisely, who should remiss
him in the teeth of public opinion.
The Marquis of CHAVIES has arrived with his Lady
et Iron, close to the frontiers of France, and thus far
the Spanish Government has acts! honorably. We hope
for its own sake it will adhere to this line of conduct,
and we are far from drapairing to see it make those
concessions to the Spanish nation, which the soundest
'policy has so long demanded.

We received this morning the Journal de St.Pelers-
&erg to the 21st ult. It contains no political intelli-
gence, domestic or foteign, of the slightest interest ;
and Russis stems already to enjoy the fruits of the
mild and just reign of her present Soveleign, in tran-
quillity At home, and race with all the world, except-
ing Persia—an exception, by the bye, which is,not of
her own seeking. How different world her situation
have been before now, had CONOTANTLIKE, instead of
his younger brother, succee.led to the Throne, '
as the
army certainly wished. From that moment. all the
neighbouring powers would be up in arms, as if an
'invasion were actually ut their doors, and Russia her-
self, fearful of the imp:tuous character, and warlike
-propensities of her monarch, would neglect those arts
by which national wealth is acquired, and producti►e
indium • cherished. We have a striking proof in
the Journal before us of the benefits she has al.
ready gained, by approximating her policy to those
principles, upon which all the uue greatness of States,
and the prosperity of nations are founded. We are
aware that very indistinct notions of good government
prevail as yet in that country, and of its practical bene-
fits still less is known; but of both she enjoys perhaps
as much as was to be expected in her circumstances,
whilst to the characters of her present and last ruler,

she o.ves much of the advantages she actually possesses.
'From the folloviing table of the importation of cotton
yarn iota Russia, during the listlie years, an idea may
be obtained of the rapid progress she is making in that

The time is gone by, when such a picture as the fore-
going could inspire foreign Statesmen with jealousy.
As to the enlightened men, who govern our own
country, we are convinced they see in it cause of exulta-
tion; for, they know that a Power, which sedulou.sly
attends to its domestic interests, and endeavours by
every legitimate means to advance them, will take care
not to provoke cause of foreign quarrel ; whilst they are
also aware that England needs only peace abtoad, and
a course of policy, in perfect unison with the ipirit of
the Constitution at home, to become again the envy
and admiration of the world.

We also received this morning Hanabwrgh Papers to
the lst inst. An &tilde- under the date of Odessa,
March 25, states that the port of that place presented
then a most•animated appearance, From the 19th to
the 20th thirty-five vessels had arrived, of which 17
were under the Sardinian tag. From the difficulty of
replenishing the magazines at that period, and from the
increased demand, it was expected that the price of corn
would soon rise considerably. As a rise had taken
place previously in all the other European markets, our
agriculturists must tee that their fears of seeing one
own market glutted with foreign corn, should the new
bill pass into a law, are perfectly gratuitoba at least
ler the present. • We suspect that their apprehensions,
eespectingli more distant period, are equally unneces
wiry, as the increased consomption'of our Manufactured
goods abroad, by raising wages at home, and conse-
quently enabling out • operatives to purchase greater
quantities of *hat is emphatically termed .the staff
of life, would more than 'counterbalance any effects
that might arise from the opening of the Ports.
We perceive front an article under the head of Berlin,
that the elevation of Mr. CANNING to the dignity of
Prime Minister has occasioned a great sensation' in that
capital. What the sensations of nine-tenths of its in-
habitants, including all those most distinguished for
their public services at the most critical period of the
Monarchy, ate upon this occasion, may be easily ima-
gined. They hail it as the dawn of the fulfilment Of
the promises, which the KING in the overflowing of his
gratitude, and, we believe with the mri t' perfect sin-
cerity of heart, made to them and the rest of the nation,
,when he saw himself delivered from the most degrading.
end painful. siturrion, to which a Monarch could be
reduced, by the almost, miraculotte exertions of hit
subjects._ Their sensations at Mr.,Carastio'S elevation
were the strOnger,ss it appears from the article before
us, that they had been prepared to expect a very diffe.
rat result. In the meantime, no one will have mote
ealize to rejoice at the event than his Prussian Majesty
'himself, for he feels that his position with respect to his
peOple is a false one—that it does /tot agree, too,
with the goodness of his character —and that, whilst
it necessarily places his interests in collision with
those his brave and enlightened *subjects, it has
renr,seliously eclipsed the splendour of the'mOnatchy.
We hope east mist, that the event, which appears to
hate produced such a sensation in his capital, will
enable that well intentioned Monarch to shake off the
foreign influence, which has hitherto induced- him, con-
.trary to his natural disposition, and contrary to the best
interests of the monarchy, to evade the pledge be gave
some years since to his faithful people.

We likewise received this morning Brussels and
Dutch Papers, both tar the sth inst. They contain no
'news, however, of the slightest interest, except what may
be contained in the following extract :
