FRIDAY EVENINU, MARCH 7, I8?3.

IMPORTANT EVENTS AT PARIS.
PROCEEDINGS OP THE CHAMBER OP DEPUTIES.
it is seldom that any thing takes place in this body
which we think worthy of particular notice ; but, the
French Chamber of Deputies,—that is to say, thrir
Lower House, have, it seems, eapelled a member of the
name of Manuel ; and the thing, all taken together, is
curious. In a debate upon the sear Co which M. Ma• ;
nuel is opposed) be said words to this effect: thst the fo- 0
reign enemies of France, by their attack upon the Frew%
were the cause of the killing of the king. Hie words
were interpreted into a defence of king killing. H.
defended himself very ably; but being of what they
call the cotj gauche, or left-hand aide, or oppo:rtioe,
his defence was nothing against the votes of the tiOtt-
hand side, which appears to he the Government side
and by those votes be has been expelled, not altogetl et :
but for is hat the morning papers call the session. We
hare not seen the French report, and therefore tree innct
tell whether expulsion be for ah it see call the tessinn.
or for we call the sitting, that is to say, for one day. 1 hr
French, by their word s4ance mean sitting. Henze the es•
preasion that they used to metre use of seance petinaneatee
that is to say,without a•ljeurnment or any thing rise. flaws
ever,the interesting filet is,the ex:lt:Won itself ; and it is se-
ry certain that if M.Manuel could be expelledbysentiments
uttered by him in debate, the House would soon become
unanimous' for that, if necess try, the majority west&
expel the tilinority.—Vet, our Chamber of Deputies, or,
rather, the Deputies of who and what one need not par-
ticularly describe, hold that they have the same power.
They can cell to order ; they can sake down words ; they •
can send their members to the Tower; and we would beg
to !snow how this differs at all from what hes been dotty
with regard to Menu I 80, what we wish to point ,
out to Our readers is, the agitation which a thing of this
sort cauees in France; and how clear a proof that aeltao
lion in the opposition is not all a sham. That it is !,
rot a sham opperition from the beginning to the
end. That it is not a farce played off to deceive and: /
cheat th t• people. That some of the Nlembere have some ,4
honesty its them at any rate ; that it is not two seta et I
men; ow on the tight anti tins rubes on Ile loft, certfiste
on a struggle for the power of plundering the previe.—
This much. at any rate we may say, of the Wine k
Chamber of Deputies. After they had I
voted M. Ma-
nuel's expulsion, the ?resident baited kim to withdrue.
Manuel said lie would yield only to force. The. National
littera was called in to drag him out. After some re- 1,

Paris. Att t, certainly, the adventure is well ettkaLited
to t: ice rise to eotnetldng of importance. It is well •
kolowo that our forcing the Bourbons upon the Frii.ch,
Las made the French nation detest us. It will gladly
j •in even the Bourbon. in any thing ealculaterl to it-'
jure or humiliate England ; but it will Out jo:u the ‘.
