The journey of M. de Stackelberg, the
Russian Minister at the Court of Vienna, an
active and experienced diplomatist, who has
had share in all the negotiations which have
/ alternately embroiled and paci6ed Europe of
late years, and who enjoys ths entire conf
dence of his Imperial Master, induces be-
lief that matters Of the highest importance
arc on the tapi,. The expected arrival at
Paris of NJ. de Tolly, nephew of the Field
Marshal Barclay dc Toliy, charged with
mission and dispatches from the Russian
Court, tends 10 strengthen that belief; while
the orders issued at the war-oftice, (as appears
by the papers,)t to make an augmentation Of
SO regiments TO the French Army, indicates
hostile disposition in the French Court
without its being possible, however, TO deter.
mine the part that France will take in these
new-supposed alliances. According to some,
she is to act as the auxiliary Of England a.
gainst Russia TO others, she is to be the aux
Hilary of Russia against England. The only
fair conclusion we are warranted in drawing
from the very few facts we are in possession
of, is, that there exists division between the
two leading Powers, Russia and England, and
that the fate of France is tho object of that
division.
These facts are, the late and present mill
tary movements--the active negotiations on
foo,--tbe immense and sudden increase of the
French army--the late vote of credit, the pur-
pose OF which is wrapped up in mystery-to
which may be added, the sudden and spirited
resolution taken by Louis in proroguiDg his
Legislature.
"This decisive step his Majesty took with
out consulting The Princes of his family, who
became acquainted with it as the public did,
by the official annunciation Of its being carri-
ed into effect As may be supposed, this
event spread cop.,erna,ion among the Angou.
leme party, and has thrown the Palace into
combustion. That high court party, hes dIess
OF the storm gathering around them on oil
sldes, would have proceeded headlong in their
rumous system of policy, while the King,
more prudent, has unfolded the neglected
charter, or constitutional umbrella, as M.
Fozzo has moro happily termed it, deferring
the completion Of his countcr-revolutionary
work to more propitious period. 1t is i'm
possible not TO see, that this measure has been
dictated by sense Of danger arising from the
menacingssplrit Of his subjects, and precarious
support ot his divided Allies."-fSt0r.1

"Triangular cards, reple,e with mysterious
symbols, understood alone by the seditious,
are IN circulation. The trial Of Cambronnc
has eScited high interest. The disafIected
wish to associate men like this warrior and
Drouot in their mad denterPriscs.--Thisla latter
quilted Paris the other day for Nancy, in the
DiliiSenee all the places being taken, he was
obliged to enter in that part of the carriage
called the cabriolet but his name was no
sooner mentioned by the conductor, than the
whole SIX inside passengers alighted, and in.
sisted on his placing himself in the most
commodious seat.
VI have already informed you that several
persons had been arrested in consequence of
some conspiracy against the Government,
which had been discovered by the vigilsnt
and active Police Of the Royalis,s. These
arrcstations have multiplied very considerably
within the last forty eight hours and among
those arrested are to bo numbered one or two
Generals OF distinction, with several Officers
of an inferior rank. /, is rumored that the
intention Of the conspira,ors wa, to remove
all the Royal Family, and afterwards to send
a courier to Vienna with propositions 10 the
Emperor Of Austria to place Napoleon II. on
the throne Of France and in case his Aus
trian Majesty did not aceedc to these propos-
itions, to proclaim the Republic Of 1898.
Among the papers seized have been found
proclamations equslling in horror suy thing
ever issued from the press In thar bloody
epoch" rS,sr.1
