THE STATESMAN.

on one side, and by the Princes and exalted Royal-
ists on the other. There is a great deal of intrigue
carrying nu. in the Elections. The Princes and the
Emigrants are exerting themselves in every way to
obtain a majority of their partizans ; and if they
succeed,-there is an end of the Cuostitution, of li•
berty, and of France. We shall (ail under absolute
power ; for the ancient Noblesse look only to
power, to places, to privileges, to the keeping
down of the canaille (as they denominate the peo-
ple), and they found all their rights on their parch-
ments—for they are enmity des ganaches who do
not know France as it is. But if I may give credit
to what I hear, they will be disappointed in the issue
of the Elections. The people do not wish for iti'les
esalijs on either side. Believe this, liberal ideas are
so univeriey spread, even among the lowest class of
society, that they cannot be extinguished. If they
are suppressed by the bayonets of the Foreigners for
the moment, they wiß assuredly rise on their de-
parture. The Bourbons ran only succeed by taking
the nation as it is, and not by attempting to subject
it to a party of No!ti!•e. against whom they have
fought for 25 years past."

To such a height have the elements of discord al-
ready been worked up, that a renewal of the war seems
inevitable. The Allied troops cannot much longer
remain in France; yet there seems no diminution of
their warlike preparations. There is to be a Prus-
sian Review neit week, when no fewer than one
' hundred and eidity thousand troops will be assem-
bled, evidently to display the power which the Prus.
sians have to carry their objects, whatever they may
he, into effect. And there is a talk of the Sovereign
of the NETIIERL %Nos and his l'ausslAN MAJrirY
uniting the interests of their Ilouses by closer lies
than mere political 'Nutlet.. lint their efforts at so li.
aggrandisement will be of little avail, if the period
has arrived at which the Coalition have discovered
the impracticability of that nstern which they wished
to carry into the very heart of Fiance, and which
has so much endangered their own safety.
PARIS, AUG, is said that a Council com-
posed of French Marshals is convoked for the pur-
pose of trying Marshal Ney. Marshals Massena
and Augereau are already mentioned as appointed to
this Council.
Prince Talleyrand gave a grand dinner yesterday,
which was attended by the Ambassadors of the fo-

M. Dammartin is appointed In suceeed M. Auger,
'who gave in Iris resignation as Member of the Com-

An address to the King from the Department of
la Cote-d'Or has the•fullow big passage:—
" Row delightful it would be for us only to have
to present to your Majesty the expressions of our
• joy, and the homage of our respect, love, and '
fidelity ! and how painful it is to afflict your pater-
nal heart with the picture of misfortunes in this de-
partment which is occspied every where by foreign!
troops !
" The Council General, in order to meet the de- t,
mends of the armies, and to insure at the same time
the tranquillity of. the people, has been under the ne.
cessity of increasing one-third tf,o taxes of the year
1815. After this indispensible measure, and per- I
haps after all insufficient, the contributions are at
this moment almost doubled, in a country without',
commerce, and nearly exhausted by the first inva-
sion. It is to the Throne that we bring these sad nit.l
melancholy truths, in the two-fold hope, Site, that
your Mtjesty, by your powerful influence with the
Allied Sovereigns of Europe, shall procure the re-
moval
of a part of their armies, and that you will
deign to take into your serious consideration the si-
tuation of the department of Cotc-d'Or."

LONDON:
TL ESDAY, ArdusT 29, 1315.

The Paris Papers of Saturday last arrived this
morning.
The Gazette Officicllc contains the names of the
new Councillors of State, and Ordinances regulating
their salaries. The Councillors on ordinary service
are to receive 16,000 francs per annum, and the
extraordinary 6000. Some of the names in this list
of Privy Councillors, chosen by Lours, will give an
additional shock to the sensitive nerves of those who
style themselves the King's friends, and will doubtless
draw down on hi; Government augmented discharges
of abuse from the hired railers in this country, who
have so much of that ornamental article at hand, for
their friends ac well as their enemies. The names
s.f MOLL, D'llAUTlEctlit, LAvotterr, and others
who are mentioned as having been honoured with
offices in the State, must he familiar to many

seem disposed to take council of these wise men of
Gotham. Their policy appears to be a little more
comprehensire, though it cannot yet be compre-
hended in all its parts.
Nay is to have hi., wish. lie is to be tried by a
Council of French Marshals. M.tssENA and AuGE-
RI.II; are mentioned as hating been nominated to
form part of the Council. If a parity of conduct
may be supposed to beget a parity of sentiment, and
" a fellow-feeling makes us wondernus kind," there
is hope in this for Mons. NEY. It seems to be una-
nirrtcasly .greed, that it is not convenient at present
to fhb:lose the plot which has brought so much
disaster on France. It will not be so easy to prove
the guilt of Nlafshal Nry in this particular, without
making 4lb:insures that :nay be dangerous to
others, as the partial farts which doomed I.Anc-
DOYERE to a death of sacrifice ; and hence, glar-
ing as was the defection of Nav from the royal
cause, rendered doubly so no doubt by the Papers
then published under the authority of the BOURBONS,
which gore the particulars, his friends are no ways

despondent. The truth, we believe, will be found
to be, that the plan for the restoration of the Im-

perial Government was settled at the very time that

corps de reserve of the Austrian army, cantoned io
the department of Burgundy, learning that several
of the inhabitants, led astray by the factious, had
committed serious crimes against individual soldiers
of the Allied army, published a Proclamation on the
IRh, at Dijon, purporting that every commune its
which an assassination shall hate taken [duce, shall
be fined 10,000 francs ; the perpetrators and all
those who aid and abet shall be arrested, tiled by a.
Military Commission, and punished with death.
The Mayor of a Commune, at whose house *ere
found arms, after being informed of this Proclama-
tion, end en inhabitant of another commune, both
of the department of the Yonne, who bad taken
arni with the manifest intention of killing a soldier
of the Allied troops, without being able to carry his
intention into effect, have been arrested, and con-
demned to be sent into Germany.
The following persons have been appointed Mem-
bers of the Chamber of Deputies :
By the Electoral College of the Department of the
Seine and Oise, M. Bismoud and M. Haudry de
