No allusion is made tn the first article of
the ordinance, and the comm lsson aDpoin-
ted to designate the regicides, nave not
vet made their report. Ii is expected,
however, to be made very shortly and
indeed, circumstances seem to require that
the measure of amnesty should be carried
into execution as soon as possible that it
should be prompt and final ; that the door
should be walled up against the past for
ever. For, it is notorious, that the minds
of men in France are in considerable sgi-
tatioD-that seeing the success which at
tended the eXertions of the ultra-royalist
party against the ministers in the affair of
the regicides, they apprehend that this par
~ may proceed to greater lengths, and at
tempt by other motions to disturb the am
nesty. Hence it is that the government
should make haste to dissipatc these APP
prehensions, and to show, by the clear,
complete and speedy manner in which they
execute the law that they view it as H.
nal, and precluding all further retrospect.
Men, when they see this, when they are
relieved from all fears of such retrospect,
will become easy, and use their utmost eff
forts to strengthen & consolidate the pow
er of the king.
The rumours of the return of the FOREIGN
troops into the interior of France. had
created some alarm. The Official Ca
zette, therefore, attempts to dissipate it by
imputing the delay in the embarkations of
the troops at Calais to contrary Winds
" Fearful, therefore, that the bad wealth
er might prolong that operation, and in or
der to avoid exhausting the districts of Bou-
iogne and Calais, several corps have stop
ped in their route" The official paper
adds, that "the movements of foreign
troops, comprising the army of occupa-
ton, to repair to their respective canton
mcnts, are on the point of being termina-
ted; and the conditions of the treaty of
the 10th November, will soon have receiy-
ed on that head. and on all points. their
complete execution"
The proceedings of the two chambers
have not been of much importance since
the passing of the amnesty law. The bud-
get will afford an opportunity for another
trial OF strength between the Constitution
al and Ultra-Royalist parties. The next
point OF difference between them relates
to the sale OF national woods. part Of
which belonged to the Clergy. By law

It is thought, will succeed.
There is, in one of these papers, an ar
tlcle from Madrid, which we have read
with pleasure. 1t was expected that the
property OF those who have fed to foreign
countries, would have been confscated or
sequestered. The king, however, has de-
