PARIS, July 24.-The proceedings OF the
Chamber Of Deputies, are at present, more
than usually Interesting. The Budget Sill
forms the subject Of discussion. In the
sitting OF the 9th, frequent illusions were
made to the present state Of Europe.
"pwo great events, said Gen. FOy, may
have an immense influence on our future
situation. On the one hand population
Of 100000 have begun TO rescue them
selves from the dominion of barbarlans---

kings. II the supplicating voice OF the
Greeks is not listened TO, they must all inc
vitably perish by the sabres of the Mussul-
mans. On the other hand, a renowned ma
ton demands from other nations the liberty
of accomplishing its political regeneration.
If the energetic demand Of Spain be not
listened to, you will see, as you have seen
heretofore, the commissions and revolutions
which the mad excuses of national feeling
are capable of producing. fMurmurs in va
fous parts ofthe Chamber.)
| From this simple statement of facts,
one consequence naturally follows that
we should protect the Greeks, and not in
terlere with the Spaniards. Greece is far
removed from us, but her inhabitants are
christians, and we ought TO fear lest the re-

her fall. (Murmurs and agitation.) She
will be answerab,e for the present genera

all know that no nation in the world, has
been more glutted with power and victories
than the French nation. We all know, that
there is no nation " hich desires more sin
cercly TO develope, under the safe guard of
constitutional Institutions, her industry, the
source of national wealth. The odious re-

NJ. Foy resumed" Last year our am
hassader to Constantinople was absent at
an important crisis he rs there ut present,
but the interest of France & of the Greeks
are not better protected, and our ambassa-
dor still resides IN Faubourg OF Peru, which

the blood that has been shed ; they will an
