DENTE OF M. LAtHE.

I'lt had been announced by notices affixed to the
door of the Hill of the Sittings, that there would
be-a public sitting at two o'clock.; but the Secret
Committee lasted till four. The Minister of Fi-
I nance and the Director-General of Police were in.
sited to he present at it; and the'Sitting being de-
',dared public, the tribunes were filled in an instant,
and the Abbe de Montesquiou was introduced into
the Hall. The proces verbal of the Sitting yesterday
was read and adopted.
The Paestngwr rose :—" Gentlemen," said be,
"when you yesterday voted honourable thanks and
rational rewards to the Marshals of France, and the
brave soldiers who have remained faithful, I received
is letter from Marshal Macdonald, who has since tes-
tified to me regret that the duration of your Sitting
did not permit me to read to you. The following is
the letter of Marshal Macdonald :

64 Monsieur, the President, I here just read with
,astonishinent in the Journals, an article which con-
cerns me, relative to the project of a law presented
jto the Chamber. I cannot but be penetrated with the
intentions manifested by the King, which I learn by
the same communication. I request you to make
known to the Chamber my seutiments out this bead—
Us:mutat nor ought I to be rewarded or thanked for
&conduct which, without being accompanied by any
personal dauger, has only been dictated, as it always
will be,•by my duties and my oaths. Accept, Air.
, President," &c.
M. Soueux demanded, that this letter should be
published. entire in the Moniteur, and inscribed in
, the procesoverbal. The Chamber adopted this pro.
' ptysitipn, and authorised the President toansaver the
letter of Marshal Macdonald. The Abbe Mantes.
quiou ascended the 'Tribune, and said—The King
has ordered me to mutat/ace to the Chamber, that his
intention was to come in a royal sitting,to thank the
nation, which, liy its enthusiasm and the energy of
its representatives, has given suet striking proofs of
i its unshaken attachment t,, the King and the charter;
and this step is only delayed by the absence of the
Prince, and that tomorrow lie would come down to
I tbe.representatives of the nation to satisfy the wishes
of 'his heart, by expressing to them his gratitude.
M. BL ANQU ART BA I LLEU L proposed that the
Chamber should declare, that those young French-
' men who had volunteered their services for the de-
fence of their conotry, should ant lose their civil
rights; and that to indemnify them for the expeuces
of the campaign they would have to make, their year
•f,stosdy should be reckoned as if bad not experienced
' any interruption.
FLAI; BRGU Es approved of the proposition, but
thought the reward offered insufficient. lie demand-
ed therefore, it should be sent to the Committee to
deliberate upon the national ressomphode dee to so
noble-a devotion&
