!. q The German papers wnich arrived TINS
r,otninr. state that a Russian army to the
nnr,her az qOO. 900 men, divided into seven
c,,r,,s with 400 pieces of cannon, is assem-
hl;np On the frontier; but it is declared that
the object is money to make demonstration
for the purpose Of maintaining peace. This
NAV be true but after the experience Of the
CARBON Sanitaire, We do not place much
faith in the pacific assurance when connected
with warIike preparations; besides, it is even
admitted that the continuance of peace will
denend upop certain proceedings in London,
and guarantees for the good behaviour Of the
French government. The French, however.
are not idle; a large army will soon be ready
for the Geld, and the first hostile demonstra-
ton against Belgium will be the signal for
pouring masses of enthusiastic Frenchmen
into Italy, and overrunning Austria. We DO
not believe that the Emperor Of Russia and
If snch a contest. The command Of the
Russian AT nv is entrusted TO Count Diebitsch,
an officer who displayed great judgment in
the war with the Turks, hut who would be
oyermatched by many Of the hundreds Of the
old French army. The funds at Vienna are
very heavy.
London, Tuesday evening, NoV. s0.-The
Paris paper Of Sunday 27lh, and private
letter from our correspondent Of the same
date arrived this morning. They announce
great activity on the part Of the French Gov
ernsnent in preparations for War. How far
the apprehension of such a step on the part
of Russia and her Allies is justified by au.
thentic Information is not stated.
Private Correspondence.
Paris, NoV. 27.--Tha news from Belgium
and all the Northern frontier Of France. APP
pe6Fs to have ut length reused the French
Goyernrnent. The most ca extraordinary exer-
tons have been ordered to be made, to pro-
vision and garrison the fortresses, to manalfac-
ture arms and other materials, and to re-or-
ganize the army. tits said to day on Change,
that Government contempIates the formation
Of an army Of 10000 men in the Northern
departments within 8 months. This, how
ever desirable will be impossible, as the utter
state Of destitution 10 which the expelled Co.
vernment left the country, of all means Of at
tack or even Of defence, will require much
longer period to repair 1t.
Amid the general impression that war is
impending. the public cling 10 the hope that
the interference Of your (the English) now
liberal Ministry, will prevent the resort TO
arms by the Northern Powers, hut can as
sure you that the predominating feeling 70 that
We are on the eve OF war.
Bourse, holfpast four, Nov. e7.--This has
been very busy, but a very dispiriting day
here. War-War-inevitable Warts the
cry of the principal portion of the specula-
tors. Yon will perceive by the Stock Lists,
which enclose, the results Of these impress
si0ns. III addition ID other reports, propaga-
ted TO depress the FMnds, is one that the
Prnssiall army is under orders to cross the
4 Frontier, and march on to Paris; and that
there are not inthe intermediate departments
d sufficient number Of troops to impede them.
The idea of sHch Ootp de main Is, however,
too absurd to deserve moments considera-

LFrom Lie Temps Of Nov. 27.l
The Gazette de Mayence contains the fol-
lowing extract Of letter from Nimeguen,
dated Nov. ~:
Prussian troops are collecting along the
whole line of the Belgian territory. The
18th regiment is distributed ia the towns and
villages az Wankun, near Gueldres; and as
far as Emmerich, upon the banks of the
Rhine. A regiment Of Hulans and a regiment
of Hussars have also arrived in that depart
rnent. Each battalion has artillery and am
mnniiion for half a battery.
Gen. Weyzach has settled his head-q
tiers nc Gueldres. The Rrst battalion of the
nth regiment and his staff ara at Cleves.--
The words gsi Vise are heard all night, and
travellers are examined with the greatest
strictness. The entire Of those troops have
military and very imposing appearance, and
the severe discipline which they are obliged
to observe II beyond example. The roil was
beaten all o'clock last night, and in less
than 5 minutes the whole army from Wan
kuhn 70 the Rhine was drawn out in order Of
battle.
Paris, Nov. 23.-The whole attention Of
this country il now turned to the moment |
GUS question Of the possibility aud even prob |
ability Of war. Tho Government, after ma. |
king every effort in its power consistent with |
French honor to avoid struggle. the conse- |
quence Of which 90 human eye can foresee, |
win certainly set to work, Ia the event OF un-
avoidable hosiilities, with the greatest energy.
Nor do we doubt that in case Of defensive |
war, an appeal, frank and frm. Of Phillip 1, |
to the French nation. would be instantly fol- |
lowed By an&normous development OF forces
