The Paris Papers of Saturday arrived this fore-
noon. Their contents are unimportant. Among other
sterling English news with which they favour us, we
are told that Lord CATHCART, who has been so long
our Ambassador at an Imperial Court, is going to be
Ambassador to the Swiss Cantons.—Five per Cents.

FROM OUR PRIT'ATE CORRESPONDENT.
" PARIS, SEPT. 16.
" The Ministry have been -hard run in the Elections
by the Independants—the Ultras' are distanced. The
ex-Bishop GREGOIRE, is elected for Grenoble, in spite
of the gigantic efforts made to prevent it. Thus the
parts of France most accused of Ultra-Royalism, have
all chosen Patriotic Decuties—LAFAYETTB, for La
tiarihe; MANCEL, for Le Vendee; Gaecoute, for
L' Isere, Etc. Another year's Elections, and there
will not be twenty Ultras in the Chamber. All the
rumours about changes in the Ministry are unfounded.
M. ROYER COLLARD is going to be created Minister
of Public Instruction—this system is bad. Educa-
tion ought not to be in the hands of Government, for
it abuses its powers. M. Rovan COLLARD is an ex-
cellent man ; but if he suffers the influence of a bi-
goted Clergy to preponderate, as it does at present—
if no school can be opened but by the authority of
the University, nor any thing taught but froM the
books it authorises, the spirit of a free and liberal
education is nipped in the bud.
" The cause of Reform in England is much che-
rished here, by both the Independants and the Ultras,
but from different motives: the former hope that
England will free herself from the trammels of a
decrepid system, and that the Nation will repossess
its rights—they wish a good understanding to exist
between the two Nations, which they conceive to be
impossible while the Government acts en the present
system. The Ultras rejoice in the troubles, because
they regard them as the forerunners of a Revolution,
which will destroy the English power. 4Of what
use was it,' say they, to cherish us for twenty-five
years with the idea of restoring our property to us,
and now abandoning us to the Jacobins, who turn
.us into ridicule—those upstarts who were made to be

our slaves. Perish such a Government, and such a
Nation r

to It is peculiarly gratifying to find that official
documents, intended to be private, will bear the scru-
tiny of criticism when made known. DONNADIEU,
General and Viscount, who had his coat beaten with
the cane and his face washed with the saliva of Colo-
nel Desctiestrs, on the Boulevards, in presence of
thousands of spectators.—DONNADlZU, to justify his
conduct at Grenoble, has printed a Pamphlet, in
which he gives a letter of the Minister of Police, M.
DICAZIIS, in which the latter applauds him for his
severity ; but this applause, like the Plume Racnwr's
on the Magistrates at Manchester, was only founded
on the General's own statement ; in a few days its
falsity was discovered, when M. Dzomeas did, what
his Royal Highness will no doubt do, when his tta.
reds by land and by water will allow him time to
ezamine the facts ; he revoked his praises, and cen-
sured the General ; and it is to justify himself from
having any share in the horrors committed by the
lion-hearted DONNADIEU on harmless and unarmed,
but suspected citizens, that the Minister has published,
in The Moniteur, his Correspondence with DONNA-
Dim,/ and the Prefects,

,4 The exigency of the moment required that these
letters should be hastily written, yet they betray no
symptoms of precipitation—they are elegant and
Constitutional : he reminds the General, that.' under
"a free Government like that of France, to repress
illegal acts illegally, is a greater grime than the com-
mission of the acts—.the duty of public officers being
to reduce all to the obedience of the laws, and not
to infringe them themselves. DON wAntsu's attacks
Were not worth answering ; but the publication of
the Minister's letters are peculiarly important, as they
iiiew a steady determination to abide by Constitu-
tional principles, at a time when he was openly ac-
cused of favouring the abuses he was striving to re-
press. Such we have always conceived the Minister
of the Interior to be, and such he proves to be, when
be condescends to justify himself,"

Now that the Congress at Carlsbad is broken up,
there is a report of a. tiew Congress to be held at
