LONDON:
4111111 DAT, JULY 11, 1118.
Forth's' French Papers (to the 18th instant) been
teethed es. They again advert to the Conspirecy,
and the judicial proceedings sgainst the accosed per.
sons, but afford scarcely any information beyond
that which we gave yesterday from the Gazette de
France. The Monitore new notices the plot, and
the sentiments of the other Papers, bet ab.
galas from any direct statements, which- ail& be
eensiroed as proceeding from authority. An Aso
journals. beweter, new confirm the fact •f
Louis's Government being menaced by a Con.
*piney of the Royalists; and the poor weak Mo-
narch has to think the Bonapartist* for his safety
and the tranquillity of his kingdom. The made
ness and presumption of the Vitrs-Fanatics,
have resealed their weakness; and though they
would have been dangerous enough had they obtained
a temporary possession of power, France now only
laughs at the criminal (olly of their projects. " The
Brost extraordinary r-eporrs," says the Journal du
Commerce," have been for some time in circulation,"
alluding probably to the charges made against the
Princes of participation in the plot. 44 Machinations
are spoken of, the success of which weeld hare com.
premised the safety of the State, and the existence of
a constitutional Government" It then names the
parties arrested, who are the same as we mentioned
yesterday. " A great number of witnesses (adds tb.
Jburnal des Moires) have been examined, and ac-
cording to what is stated of the questions addressed
to them, projects were in agitation, so criminal, and,
at the same time, so foolish, that the execution of
them would have been as Impossible as the bare
idea of them is revolting." General Canner. has
not yet been discovered. As he is a favourite of the
AncouLEmcv, it may not be en easy matter to get
at him. This insolent agent of the persecuting fac-
tion, and prime cause of the disturbances at Lyons,
was displaced by the Duke of Itaausa, when he
went on his mission to the South ; and he
and his cashiered military adherents, have been turn-
log with revenge and disappointed ambition ever
mute. MAnnorr's letter, which we have copied,
complaining of CAMEL'. conduct, throws some
light on the Royalist mancouvres at Lyons, and
shows that MARMONT, though he deserted NAPOLEON
in a very traitor-like manner, has been opposed to
the plans and objects of the revolutionary Royalists.
That the Throne of Louis would soon be overturned,
and France be again whelmed in confusion and blood.
shed, if the Government were committed to the
bands of these weak, rash, and illiberal men, is a
truth that has long been apparent, and Lours himself
knows it well. We do not wonder at the desire in
certain quarters to prolong the stay of the Army of
Occupation la France. The Duke of Wordooree
is uoderstood to be a Mend of the Royailits. It his
been said he considers them as aggrieved. We have
no doubt these worthy Statesmen and warriors think
themselves very harshly treated. Their aspiring
bravery and modest virtues evince how much they
are deserving of sympathy and power. The facts of
plots against the established Government of France
cannot be expected to weigh in favour of the disso-
lution of the Occupying Army. We should like to
know whether this question, so important to Europe
and to the armies themselves, is to be decided by the
opinion of Military Commanders.
It is reported that the Sovereigns of AUSTRIA,
itOSSIS, and PNUMA, will repair from Aia-la-Cha-
pile to Paris ; but that the visit will only be paid on
the contingency of their troops being forthwith eva.
