tions were adopted. The Chamber Of
Peers, however, determined that they
could not join in the declaration Of the
Deputies annullingthe creation ofPeers

matter To the wisdom of the King. The

mong whom Archbishop Cheverus is

II would appear from the public pa
pers, and our private letters from Paris
confirm the impression, that there was
no movement nor party IN favor OF the
young Napoleon. As anact ofhomage
however, to the great man whose name
must, in all ages, be identified with the
glories Of France, the new King had,
it is said, demanded of the English
government the ashes of Napoleon, in
order to their being deposited beneath
the column of the Place Vendome--a
coldmn, as many of our readers doubt
less are aware, constructed from the
cannon captured AT Austerltz.
Accounts from the different depart
ments of France all concur to prove that
there was feeling of deep dissatisfac-
ton with the dethrOned family; and
the change, sudden and decisive as il is,
seems TO be effected with perfect tran
guilty and confidence.
The students of the Poly technic
school especially, and those of the
schools of law and medicine, were a
mong the foremost aud most efficient
combatiants on the glorious days ofthe
9th, 2sth, and 29th July; accordingly,
the Lieutenant-General ordained the
distribution among them of certain
nunber OF decorations of the Legion of
Honor, twelve to the Polytechnic school
and four to each of the others. The
three schools alike declined receiving
them. The letter of the Polytechnic
scholars adds fresh honors to their
name.
BY subsequent ordonnance ofthc
Lieut.. General, each student was nm
mediateiy breyctied Lieutenant with
a provision that such among them as
should afterwards enter into the civil
service of the country, should receive
a propOrtiOnate advancement. They
also received furlough for four months.
