The Philadelphia Sentinel publishes a
letter from Joseph Bonapartc, in which he
says that nothing but duty can induce
him to quit this country-so long as there
is any question in France of branch of
the Bourbon family for sovereign, he
shall stay where he is. He intimates
that if Napoleon the second should be
called to the throne, he will be ready to
join in supporting him.-b.
The TRI-CoLoUR.-Many inquiries
have been made of late, as to the origin
ofthe tri-colored flag, and of what is it
emblematical. We find the following ex-
planation in a paper before us; Before
the Revolution the City ofParis had col
ours of its own-red and blue-the ,chite
being the colour of the King and his ar
my. After the taking of Bastle, the ar
med bourgeois of the city, having taken
the name of the National Guards, added
the white to the two previous colours OF
Paris, for the purpose of indicating that
the King was no longer separate estate,
and that his power has passed into the
hands of the people.
Mr.. Atkinson-Will you give the following an
insertion in your paper for the information of all
interested.
