Another of the French Exiles in Belgium, Count
Lon*u, is stated to have Received permission to re•

The alarmists, of whose conduct we laid a tole-
rable specinsen yesterday before our Readers in our
account of the proceedings in the counter suits be-
tween General entiuct. and Messrs. Samirtzvit.sit
and neviza, have it appears been again at work,'
and again made choice of the same scene of action
for their calumnies.

An article which is extracted in the Moniteur and
to most of the other Papers, from the Journal of
Lyons, states, that letters had been actually written
from Lyons to Paris, asserting that the inhabitants
of the former were in open rebellion—that the re-
-.raitment had been carried through in the most hor-
t.ble manner—that the busts of NAPOLEON aad his
Bon were carried triumphantly in the streets in the
midst of the most seditious demonstrations of ap-

please, &c.—that in the surrounding country nothing
vas heard but cries of rebellion, and the chaunting of
the Marseillois jlymn, Ca ira, lee Aristocraks a la
hreerne—that in a village, the young people, after
parading it and down, &Waist la Carmagnola,
stopped at the gate of the Curare to threaten him

:id the lanthorn—that the Authorities suffered all
these horrors to pass without interfering, considering
them as mere bays.elles which de,orved no atten-
tion, &c. " Inhabitants of the Rhone, Inhabitants of
Lyons," exclaims the Journal Qf Lyons, " behold the
colours under which some of your compa►riots are
pleased to represent you to the King and to Franc*.
It is true, some solitary and seditious cries were raised
at the time of the Ballot, in a few places of the De-,
partment, and of the City of Lyons, to the shame;
without doubt, of some bad subjects, who rendered
themselves thus culpable amid the brutishness of the
grossest intoxication ;,to the shame also of those who
7ould rejoice at such indications, or who may have pro-
voked them, but not by any means, ask isendeavoured
to be represented, to the shame of a faithful popula-
tion, on whom they have made no other impression
than that of disgust, nor to that of the Authorities,
who have instantly eseented justice on the guilty, who
are now suffering the punishment they merited...—
The truth is, that the operations of the recruitment
were conducted in the department with order, sub-
mission, obedience to the law, respect for authority—
we may even say generally, with demonstrations as
honourable to the inhabitants as they must be satis-
factory to the heart of his IlLtsrsrv. Such is the
real state of the fact ; every thing else is false. We
appeal to all the local authorities, to the whole De-
partment of the Rhone, to bear evidence how odious
the calumnies are, which have been malignantly cir-
culated against the loyalty of its inhabitants."
There exists, sayi an insulated paragraph in the
Quotidian., bus three classes in society AFreneh so-
ciety)—those who knew the revolution—those who
have forgot it—and those who have never known
any thing about it. Of the first we would presume
to say that they must be wises for what they knovi ;
the second, that if there are persons really capable
„f forgetting a passage in the history of their •wn
times so memorable as the French Revolution, it is of
no consequence what they may have known—they
ATe of those whom all the knowledge in the world will
never lead unto wisdom—of the third, of those who
have never known any thing of that assful history
of horrors comprised in the Revolution of their coun-
try—that their lot is ohe which all their countrymen
may envy.

A liamburgh Mail has brought us to-day Papers
