opinion the confederacy of the Allies was

Extract ola letter from Paris.
The English who are in Paris, a, d who
frequent Bois de Bnulcgne, the theatres, ard
the Duke of Wellington's balls, think they
see grea. deal of Paris and of France,
and that nobody is better able to Judge of
the state of the country, and the whole
! measures of the King and Minister'S than
themselves. Besides, these people observe
the debates In the French Parliament, AMI
| take for very fine and genuine stuff all that
they hear about the Charter and the Con
stitution, and the limited authority of the
Ministers. Despotism and terror are the
order of the day.. The prisons are all so
fuli, that in short time the only way will
be to turn some large town into prison.
In the Abbaye there are no less than eight
Generals, besides Cclonels, and an infinite
number of persons of distinction, not one of
which was in the Kings July list ofproscri-
bed neither is there one of them who
knows for what reason he is arrested
General Bel!iard is among the nnnber,---
they are accused of no crime, but are ar
b'trarily kept in close confinement, without
trial and examination, st the pleasure of
the Minister of Police"
We hear that among the instances in
which the law in France authorizing un-
limited arrests was made use Of, an English
IN n, invested with public character bv
the Austrian Government, and provided
with the proper documents, signed by
Prince Metternich, as passports from Sir
T. Stewart, was arrested at Merseilies on
some frivolous pretext, and convicted to-
Paris, where he was confined in one of the
| state prisons, where he was kept for coz,
| siderable tigc in close confinement, and
| prevented from sending letters to the diff
ferent Ministers whose interference he had
right to expect. We hope, for the sake
of the Englishmen travelling in France,
| that remonstrances will be made by our
Government on this subject, for the liberty
OF our conntrymen in that country is at the
mercy of every capricious Project who may
chuse to arrest them without any assigna-
| bic cause.
Extract ofa letter fran Shcin.
The prosecutions IN this unhappy coun-
