The New York papers contain copious extracts !
from the foreign papers received by this arrival
making up in quantity what the news wants in qua.

OF Importance o. of ordinary interest in these
momcn,ous times, had occurred since our last adj
vices We have therefore, after making prcpar
10 transfer the selections in the NJ York papers to
our columns, concluded to give the following sum
mary merely, omitting dry details; and III preference,
to lay before rca icrs what we arc confident they
will deem of far superior interest. viz the Paper on
the 'ControNersy attributed to Gen Jackson rs his
expose of,hat affair aud the Debate in the u S. Sem

The affairs of Belgium create much excitement,
both in England and in France. king had not vet
been elected, and the French government had de-
CARED most explicitly to the Belgian congress that if
the son OF Beauharnos elected king BY the Bel
gians, he would not be recognized nv France The
explosion which in the Belgian Congress followed
thiS communication was very great; and the scnti
ments of the French Chamber OF Deputies the
general subject of the duty OF France under present
circumstances both towards Belgium and Poland
Will be best gathered from the debates we pnbsl Of
eth and 2Sth January. Lgf;yefte, it will be seen,

French Minister of State says, at the conclusion of

In debate IN the Chamber of Deputies OH the 9Th
and 18th January, Parliamentary conversation took
place OF deeply interesting character. We quote
from the Morning Herald of Feb Isl.
The subject was introduced by NJ. Mauruin who
calcu upon the ministry To explain their policy with
respect to Belgium and Poland The chulienre was

Than national intervention. France had larrc claims
upon Briglan gratitude, and 1t was tpkng too
great fbcrty 20 require voice, particularly hon
referred TO, as 10 the form Of Government which IN
near neighbour ought 10 assume. Poland was 400
leagues distant irum France, and nothing was To no
done for 1t but through the medium of Continental
war, Tor which France was not anxious though not
imp epared These arguments were re- ECHOED bv
the Minister OF War. General I.afav.tte maintained
that France ought to adhere to the broad principle OF
protest against all international intrryention md
ought to enforce it at all risks. NJ Mau-n conclu
drd by saying that. If France was discussed To tnke
Belgium under It's wing, the Powers Of the Continent
were all too weak TO interfere with it. The Minis.
ters, one and ALL protessed their adherence TO pac
fic system.
