FOREIGN LVTELLIGENCE.

FRANCE.

The Quotidienne informs us that the two jesuits who were
,attached to the Duke of Bordeaux have .been dismissed, and
that M. de llamas has given in his resignation ; that new ap-
pointnients have -been made, which it is not vet permitted to
disclose' and that one of our most enlightened *magistrates is to
direct the young prince's study of the laws which govern this
kingdom.
Not belonging to the faction, we can be more circumstantial.
M. de-- Damns nas long had many enemies amongst his own
party, and in several foreign courts, who have been constantly
increasing. At last he declared himself ready to resign his si-
tuation near the duke, provided it was the desire of the Du-
chess of Berry ; at the instant this desire was signified to hint
he resigned.
This was a hard measure for Charles X., but his sacrifices did
not end here. The Cardinal de Latil had declared that if the
two jesuits who had replaced M. de Barande were removed, and
a teacher of philosophy appointed to the young duke, his con-
science would not permit him to witness such scandal; and he
should retire to Rome. This threat so alarmed the old king
that all the influence of high foreign personages was required to
-make him admit the possibility of such a separation.
- After wresting from him all these concessions, it was still ne-
cessary to enkage him to consent to the appointment of M. de
Barande, as preceptor, and to the nomination of M. de Chateau-
brined to be governor to the prince. This last, especially, was
a bitter pill for the old monarch, as he had not forgotten the
epithet of perjured, applied to him in one of Chateaubriand's
discourses. In fine, that he might drink the cup to the dregs,
he was made'to consent to the appointment of M. Cottu, to su-
perintend the legal studies of his grandson.
Such are the appointments which the Quotidienne declines
making public. They were to have been kept secret till the
majority of Henry V., and to be published then with the great-
est circumspection. It seems that M. de 'Metternich has hinted
to the little court of Prague, that if it plays a part at the coro-
nation of the last sprig of legitimacy, it must be privately and en
fivaille. Austria does not fear to be compromised in her politi-
cal. position by her guests, although something more may be
done for Henry V., or Don Miguel, than mere wishing.

GERMANY.
DETAIL OF AFFAIRS IN LANDAU.

LANDAU, August 15.—Yesterday, in the orders of the day,
the lieutenant-general commanding the fortresses exhorted the
soldiers to answer the provocations of evil-minded people only
by contempt.
• The Bavarois da Rein asserts, that on several of the hand-
bills placarded against the soldiers were these words : "We will
beat all who wear the yellow button." . .

—After theVverdict of acquittal, the advocate Golvax petitioned
,the government for the provisory release of Dr. Siebenpfeiffer,
on the ground \that, receiving a pension from government of
1,400 francs, it was not to be supposed that he would attempt
his escape. He declared that Becker also was ready to give
bonds for his provisory release. The counsel for the other pri-
sOneria have. made the same declaration, and M. Schneider has
demanded the restitution of the sabre of honour of Dr. Wirth.
The court has sent them before the Correctional Tribunals, who
are to try them, with respect to their demand for a provisory
release. It has also ordered the restitution of the sword. of
Wirth, of the letters of Siebenpfeiffer; and of the lists of costs,
ou the ground that these objects do not belong to the correc—
tional instruction; nevertheless, justice still keeps possession
of the colours of Hambach.
SWITZERLAND.

The Zurich Gazette announces, that in the sitting of the
Federal Diet on the 17th alt., the resole proposed by the
commissioners relative to the affairs of Basle were adopted.—
This canton, as well as that of Schwytzi has chosen deputies
to take part in the proceedings of the Diet; and all the new
deputies elected by the twenty-two cantons were expected at
Zurich on the 25th. The popular assemblies have resolved to
petition the Diet-Ist, To order the arrest of the instigators of
the civil war, especially ibyberg and LandamannWeber;
2dly, To have them tried by a national court-martial; 3dly, To
send the revolutionary prisoners to the regency of Berne; 4thly,
To exclude for ever from the Diet the patricians who have been
members of the Salmon conference. With regard to the
federal compact, the petitioners wish the Diet to consult the
people upon so important an affair, by calling upon them to
appoint ten persons capable of drawing up a new constitution.

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE,

By private letters from Basle, dated August 20th, we learn
that the excitement was increasing. The Diet of Zurich has
ceased its labours. It had admitted the two envoys of Schrovtz,y
Messrs. Landamann and Elodever, who had formed part of the
Sarnen conference, in which the plots of the priests and pa-
tricians were conspired. M. Schnell, deputy from Berne, had
declared that he would quit the assembly if itadmitted men who
had caused so much misery to the people. The inhabitants
of Zurich were highly offended,. and have received, we are
assured, invitations from several cantons to convoke the people
in case of the resistance of the Diet or on the non-execution of
the decrees. It is thought that the government of Berne, the
most powerful of ail, will support the popular assemblies. The
young men and the troops are on its side.
I Jearn that M. Schnell has gone from Zurich this morning,
to give an account to the Government of Berne of what has
passed. The arrival of the Envoys from Uri and Underwald,
nominated in the great meeting of the 18th, is spoken of.—
They have determined to recognise the Diet, to dissolve the
conference, and to send deputies. Basle will follow the exam-
ple : the councillors have just been assembled for the nomina-
tion of deputies.
At this moment there is great agitation. It is seen clearly
that the Diet will not unite with the majority of the nation,
and that it has no regard for the public will, expressed, as it is,
in every possible manner. This is a dangerous state of things;
it is to be feared that the country is about to be thrown into the
horrors of anarchy and 'civil war, at the moment that it ap-
peared to be perfectly secure from them.
It is probable that the Central Committee, which is to assem-
ble on the 25th at Zurich, will take measures conformable to the
wishes of the assemblies of the cantons, several of which have
unanimously voted for an appeal to the nation. Asa cool
spectator, r am convinced that the resistance of the Diet will
plunge the country into an abyss of misery, and that the assem-
blies will be its destruction. In fact, the Diet wishes to bring
back the ancien regime, and the assemblies, to drive 'every
thing to anarchy.
