Philadelphia, June 90.

The Paris journals, received by an arrival
at New York, are to the Cd of May. The
25.h OF April began the debate in the Cham
Der of Deputies respecting the state OF
France I; and was resumed on the 2sth, with
out coming to conclusion. The petition
which Immediately gave rise TO the debate,
proposed. by way of form we presume, that
seyery signal ola rising should be interdict-
ed. and that the commandants Of the troops
should transmit none but official despat CHI
es.' This provision refers to the allie ged
secret organization whose centre was in the
capital, and which had circulated inaamma.
tory addresses all over the kingdom, and
particularly among the national guards
The debates were not without vehenence
for the two great parties struggle TO throw
the guilt and odium of the incendiary trans.
actions upon each other. be libe ais were
denounced as tactious and revolutionary in
THEN principles the liberals retort Ly ell.
quiring to what party belonged the perpe-
traitors of certain well known outrages. De
Gaze, the late minister, was arraigned as
the author of all the divisions that agitate
France as having directed the poignard OF
the assassin, because ii was for the govern.
ment alone 10 take measures against the Sc.
crel conspiracy, and hunt out and punish the
authors of the reasonable circulars; and
The minister had been utterly relniss in this
duty. By bis supine ness, he had committed
the same treason as ithe had connived at the
proceedings of the unknown traitors. The
bill to regulate the imports was before the
Chamber. One OF the provisions imposes
duty Of FIVE francs perl00 Kilograms on all
tobacco imported by French vessels from
European ports. The impost is intended
10 check tie circuitous importation, and en-
courage direct shipments from the United
States.
On the night of the 99th Of April loud
defamation was heard, as if from under the
PIoce du Carsusal. The guards were i'm
mediately to arms, search was made, aud
under the second door on the side oftLe Eue
de Root, were discovered the fragments OF
an engine called petard, which had been
exploded.
A grand parade was to take place al Paris
on The third, in the Celebration OF the aDni-
versary Of his Majesty's return to France,
and in the evening all the public buildings
were TO be illuminated.
souchois, editor OF the Journal du Cher,
has been sent before the Court of Assises, by
the Chamber of Accusation OF the Royal
Court OF Bourges, for disobedience TO The
law OF the 96th o} March-formal attack on
the constituted authorities of the King, and

reputation which itenjoys in England.

There are few who do not labour under

is in our opinion, that some one of our
experienced physicians would give Tue

Norfolk. April l7.--Commodore Bar
ron and Captain Elliott, arrived here on
Friday morning, 10 Middleton's Packet,
froul Alexandria. The Commodore's
wound. we are happy TO learn, is 10 fine
way, and he will, il is expected, be able
to walk as well as ever 10 two or three
weeks. His wound was much nearer
being mortal than report had made tia
hairs breadth, would have been sufficient
to have given the ball fatal direction
and perhaps it was owing to the circum-
stance of his standing square to the front
Tin the military phrase) that his life was
saved. II his side had been presented.
even in small degree, the probability is
that the ball, after striking the hip bone,
would have glanced contrary way and
perforated the abdomen: or il the ball
had struck the eighth Of an inch further to
the left the wound must have been mortal.
