permitted himself, on the Ist of Apiil, to fire at Blaz,

him, on the 6th, to give orders f(/'• burning the Re-
gulus, of 74 guns, and three brigs ; the crews escaped
on shore and fled to Rochefort. English troops,

The testimonies of respect and friendship which
have heel' paid to the King of Famsct, during the
Fast d'sys of his residence in this country, by persons

of all ranks and stations—the regulated expressions

of public functionaries, and the unbounded kind.
wss% of tie people, must have made an impression
on his Majesty's heart, which we fervently hope
no collision of political interest between France and
England ►gill for many years arise to weaken or

ftr the purpose of attending q,im at his embarkation.
ft is expected that the King will make his entry into
Park on Wednesday or Thursday next, where all
remaining members of the Bounaox House will,
by that time, have assembled. This re-occupation
by' a !Int ttaos Prince, of the throne of his an-
(....stors, is a theme of cnngratulation to almost
every individual of all parties in France. The
circumstances which have produced, and whicl►
attend it, render it equally acceptable to the friends
of c,tablished Monarchy, and to the advocdtes of
popol•tr r;,:bts. It efft.cts an amicable composition
l.f il:e claims and pretensions of all classes of poll•

that can rwonably be demanded for them, by ac-

claims, to impose conditions on their ever se, Or

petual exclusion from the Throne, pronounced by the
French people against the Bousteons, is now miti-
gated ostensibly by the same power. The sovereignty
is still allowed to exist in the same hands; the re-
laxation of a decree inns much an act of sovereignty
as its original promtitgation. The joy which has
been manifested in London, can give but a faint idea
of that which must be felt at Paris. We are released
from the burdens and calamities of a most exhaust-
iug war; the French, in addition to this blessing,
have the prospect before them of being hereafter go.
