From the interior OF France we learn.
that attentions continued 10 the Holy Fa-
ther, who sill was at Paris. On the 18Th
OF February he visited the Repository of
Arts and Trades. On the occasion, the
most useful inventions were displayed be-
tore him. The machinery Of Richer at
tracted his notice. This machinery is 10
impress the paper money. 1t prints the
text and the numbers. He then viewed
the SIX and cotton manufactures. Anew
engraving machine was produced, inven-
ted by Conte, and employed in the work
upon Egypt. Thousands crouded for his
benediclion, and The Holy Father admi-
nls,ered the holy communion with his
own hands IN the Parish church Of St.
Margaret to one hundred persons, chiefly
labourers. This privilege was not induI.
ged to the females, from tile countless
muIti,udes Of them, who were obliged 10
be content with general benediefion, and
plenary indulgence. On the Cd cfFeb.
eight Bishops took the oath 10 his Males
ty, while his Majesty was at the celebra-
ton oil Mass. Liable Fourier is named
as his Majesty's Chaplain. We ought TO
observe all those interesting circums,an-
ces, as they have create influence on
the fate OF France than sieges and battles.
The news from Lyons is favourable 10 the
tuli prosperity of that antient city. 1t
was IN Toll industry, and not able by all
its labourers to answer the constant de-
mands. The sums coined at The mint,
andreported in January, amounted in gold
and silver, to a sum exceeding 1856 MILF
ons oil francs, and the coins Of francs
were in value above loo millions, giving
IN the whole sum above 242 millions.
Al the disposal Of Government, for the
expenses OF The current year, 6s4 MILL
ons were announced, and 800 millions for
The next year. Appearances were very
favorable TO the internal quiet Of France,
N the present posture OF their public az
airs.

The public were amused day or two
ago, with rumours that France was about
to make demand upon our government
for so millions Of dollars as an indemnifi-
cation for the produce, exported from ST.
Domingo, by our merchantmen, after the
massacre of the white inhabitants of that
island whose property this produce was
said TO have been. After waiting in vain
for some authority for these rurnours, we
are at length enabledto conjecture whence
they originated. The French govern.
ment, with a. degree sf humanity and po-
Icy, that does credit alike 10 the hearts
and heads its promoters, have recently
passed a decree, allowing each man, wo-'
man, and child, who had been driven from
81 Domingo, yearly pension propofti-
oned To their several wants--a federal
print, of this city, assures its rsoacrs dat
the passage ofthis decree corroboStesthe.
rumours We have mentioned, but II must
be very evident that the decree had no
allusion to or connection whatever with.
our aiiairs--this editor does indeed main
tain, that the money must come from
some quarter 10 pay the exiIes, but this is
miserable ground for founding our belief
OF tale so improbable and even ridicu-
lous. Some substantial evidence must
be given before his rumoured demand can
gam any credence-all tina, has been said
as yet has created a contrary opinion.
