TO CORRESPONDENTS.
The Seeind Letter of A Sriataaa, 04 she awe f Parties is tilwits,
shall appear to-marrow.

This morning, despatches were received at the Foreign
Office from Lord STUART DE ROTHSAY, OUr Ambassa-
dor at Paris;; and from Sir CHARLES BAOOT, our Am-
bassador at the Hague.
This day also, despatches were received at the Colonial
• Office from Lieut.-General the Hon. Sir G. L COLE,
Governor of the Cape of Good Hope ; from Lieutenant-
General Sir C. CoLv ILLS, Governor of. the Mauritius ;
and from Lieutenant-General DARLING, Governor of
New South Wales.

We call the attention of our readers to an able
letter concerning Colombia and the kazzATort,,which
appears in another page. The facts stated by the writer
are not less interesting, than the importance and justice
• of his conclusions are self-evident.

The Journal du Commerce of Saturday has reached us
by Express. The following are extracts :
TRIESTE, Nov. 22.
A traveller who quitted the environs of Smyrna the 24th
October, represents the country as in a state of anarchy,
and the insurrectionary movements as very serious.—
Many districts of Asia are in full revolt against the Porte,
and bands were moving round the country increasing the
sedition. The Porte has sent against the rebels, several
detachments, which have been repulsed.

The belief of an immediate and thorough change of
Ministry in France continues to gain ground, while the
visit of the !Ciao to Compiegne seems to give it addi-
tional corroboration. We cannot persuade ourselves that
M. DI POLIGNAC will attempt to meet the Chambers
with his present colleagues, representing, as they do, all
the is hateful and unpopular in France. Our opinion
is, that whatever his secret wishes may be, CHARLES
X. will yield to the desire of his people, and thus
prevent a catastrophe which obstinacy on his part
would inevitably occasion. In offering this as our
conviction, we are equally satisfied that some of
the names mentioned as likely to form the new Ca-
binet will not prove agreeable to the liberal party.
Neither PASQUIER nor MARTIONAC will ever enjoy its
confidence. Marshal MAisow and General Ati say-
GSAC are but little known, and possess no po-
litical pre-eminence. Of all the persons pointed
out, M. HtratAirtr is the most popular with the
predominant party. The truth is, nothing but
a decidedly liberal Ministry will now restore confi-
dence, and probably nothing else` will obtain a majority
in the Chambers.
Some days ago we noticed the speculations of a
French politician in the Columns of a Morning Paper.
In his Fifth letter, which appeared on Friday last;
0.... P. .Q.—who, by the way, is suspected of being.
an agent of M. DE POLIONAC by the liberal
journals of Paris asks whether an appeal to
Foreign Powers on the part of the ultra royalist faction
should include England?, To this question, we can
answer with a decided negative. We are persuaded that
no circumstances whatever could induce the people • of
thin country.to undertake another crusade against the li-
berties of France. We have,surely received a lesson on
this subject, which neither time not events can ever obli-
terate. If, instead of coalescing against France In
1793. the respective Governments had set about

to Philosophers and Statesmen l---When we look back
on the immense and terrible sacrifices caused by the re-
volutionary war—sacrifices, which according to the
wisest opinions might have been avoided—it would
be lamentable indeed if such a lesson should be
lost on this, or on future generations. But at the same
time that we assure 0. P. Q. that M. de POLIGNAC
and the furious faction he represents, have nothing to
hope from the co-operation of England, we repeat, with
equal confidence, that it is just as vain to expect any
effectual check to the progress of freedom from the con-
tinental powers. Whatever may be said by those, who
only know Spain and Portugal through the medium of
books and newspapers, the people of both countries would
rejoice in any event which might give them an opportunity
to break the yoke ander which they groan. The sentiments
of Italy are more unequivocal still. Those entertained in
Belgium need not be recapitulated ; and as to Prince
METTERNICII—Upon whom 0. P. Q. indices a flaming
panegyric—he has most assuredly reached the end of
his political 'system. Here, we do not hesitate to
prediet, that the Constitutions of Naples and Pied-
mont, are the last which will ever be put down by
Austria. No ! The coalitions of the late war,
and circumstances arising from them,. are 'scenes in the
great drama of nations, never more destined to be re-acted,
now that knowledge and civilisation have prepared
even semi-barbarous countries for political amelioration.
Bow fortunate for mankind--how infinitely beneficial to
themselves—were Ministers and Princes to foster, in-
stead of oppressing, this tendency to improvement and

- -
m—the characteristic spirit of our age !

We disagree again with the writer whom we are now
noticing, concerting the extent and power of the Repub-
lican party in Frakce. A long intercourse with that
country, and not inattentive observation of the senti-
ments which animate many influential leaders, convince us
that they see all the difficulties of engrafting a republic on
the deep-rooted feudal remnants of the old regime. Like
ourselves, the leading politicians in France consider a
limited Monarchy as the best form of Government for
the European Family : and like ourselves, we very much
doubt whether they would be at all disposed to change
this form, for all the boasted freedom of the United States.
The following remarks in the Coestitutionnel of Wed-
nesday last will be found materially to strengthen our
opinion :
The crisis is at its height, the drama which an absurd faction
has been playing for the last five months, in presence of a great
nation tired of every excess, touches its end, the Bth of August
saw rise, the most miserable of Ministries, the month of Dee. will
witness its fa& Thus its destinies are fast developing themselves.
Brame pursued with its just reprobation, will feel its first and
solemn vengeance. The country is delivered, thanks to its own
generous efforts, to the perseverance of all; to that unanimity of
sentiment, that calm and legal attitude, the only barrier which a
Constitutional country country can henceforth oppose to tyranny.
6 Many wiles aro mentioned for the New Ministry
these names are of little consequence to us. It Is not 5
question of friends, but a grand manifestation of prin-
ciples. Let the Charter, consecrated by the oath at Rheims
be fully executed, and let France receive all the bene-
fits which it is calculated to confer It is then that
Royalty blessed by millions of citizens, will assume that influence
which is reserved for it by our political compact. We Mall have
no more Coosasillas's Congregations or Jesuits, but a religion
respected, a throne venerated, and institutions which all will be
ready to defend and maintain.

We hays Dutcb Papers this morning to the 12th inst.
Their contents do not possess much matter of public
interest. They are to the following effect:

STERNBURG, Dec. Y.
The number of Members present at the Diet has been decreasing
for some days, though most of the subjects brought before it are
not yet discussed. The new law relative to mortgages In cities
wait pissed, with a few alterations, in the Sitting of 21th November ;
and thus a subject concluded which has occupied the Diet for
several years. people to general are of opinion that this law will
have the most biocide' effects on credit, and the security of real
property; and great praise is bestowed on the completeness and
systematic arrangement of the law. The law OD the settlement
and maintenance of the poor has caused animated debates, as the
interests of the several provinces are so various.
Only three extraordinary contributions will be levied next year ;
and yet, as the amount annually increases, and the collateral tax
greatly exceeded the estimate last year, an extraordinary redemption
of 50,000 fix dollars of :he debt will be effected. On the whole,
200,000 dollars of our debt will be paid off.—Hookri Popov.
