BALrIM IRE, November 5.

York. has furnished European papers,
some of them to the ID of October, from
which we insert copious extracts.
FRANCE.-We as yet know little as
to what change the accession OF new
King may occasion in France, or whe-
Their the policy existing at the demise
of the late monarch, and which M. de
Chateaubriand has described as one OF
corruption and violence, may not be
continued BY his successor. There had
not been sufficient time for Charles the
10th to manifest his real intentions, be-
ing occupied with merely household ar
rangements, and the pomp Of his en-
trance into the capital. IL is said, how
ever. that the influence OF the Duke d.
Angouleme, now Dauphin, has prostra-
ted the liberal party. This is only what
had been long anticipated, still it is but
an on dit.
In the absence of more positive infor-
nation, we insert the following extract
= of private letter, dated
"PAms, a5th Sept
aEvery circumstance OF the new
reign only confirms what have already
stated. that there will be no Change
The pamphlet of N. de Chateaubrland
was regarded in some measure, as the
manifesto Of the t-Ministerial cabal;
and they hoped it would be the means
: ofrecalling the writer to court where
he might anoy M.de Yillele.
"Whoeyer knows the history of the
restoration, must smile TO read in this
pamphlet that Mr.. de Chateadbriand
ascribes to himself all the merit Of that
event. He says il was brought about
entirely by another pamphlet Of his,
against Buonaparte, which he published
in 1914 But what has given most Of
fence. is the strenuous manner in which
he urges Charles X to be crowned at
Rheims, as the Kings legitimate au-
thority were dependent upon his 50 do
ing. Ga this subject as used as naughty
and almost as threatening language, as
the famous SIMON, no. of the States of
Arragon."
GREECE.-The Greek war contin-
ues with unabated fury-The intelli-
geaee is confused, and in some respects
contradictory, but taken altogether the
advantages appear to be on the side OF
Independence and liberty.
POLICY OF RUSSiA--We insert
3 an article under this head, which exhi-
bits ALEXANDER in his true character
and pro YES that 10 his policy at home he
is actuated By the'great leading prinei-
pie that governs the holy afiiances-The
prominent feature of this association is
desire or rather a determination to
keep the people in ignorance and con-
seqlent vassaIlage-no lights political,
moral, or literary are to be impaired to
them-I want not learned men" ex-
claims the emperor of austria.

the King of Prussia. My Calmucs,

barous aad bloody, to the end of the
Chapter" declares the Emperor of
Russia.-"Pagans may remain Pagans
still, and Cossaces may always fight
without observing any of the common
laws of war - want their arm, not their
moral force; give me their sinews in
the field, and they may continue to en-
Joy their perfect freedom of ignorance
and barbarity. So long as this policy
lasts they win obey my nod and never
dream of liberty, or independence "
Such is the policy OF Russia squaring
exactly with the policy ofthe Holy Al
lance, yet, strange to say, this is praised
and called in the article to which we re-
fer, the generosity of Russia's measures
towards her subjects."-a generosity
pre- eminently calculated to perpetuate
gnorance, superstition and slavery.
