Il was only last week that NO noticed
the formation ola new ministry in Ftascs
at the head Of which was placed the duke
OF Basseno-later advices shew that i,
lasted only about stakree daysn and then
dissolved itseif-lsav,ng public affairs in
state Of chaos. This hsppeaed on the
18th November. There are ACCOUNTS one
day later from Paris-and, though the "a
Pers abound with all sorts Of speculations
on the past and a. to future events, but lit
tie information 10 afforded in regard 70 the
real condition Of things. The chamber
were to have met on the LIST inst. Decem-
ner-the day ofthe meeting Of the present
session OF Congress; and lively hope has
been entertained by some, (but not ii all
by us,) that = bill appropriaiinQ money to
satisfy our claims for spoliat.ons would
have passed before the arrival Of the pse,i-
dents message-which 10 rendered Iess
probable, (if there was any probability oG
~ by the disorganization Of the Preach
cabinet. There is a report that thus was
caused BY tho urgency Of the king to have
these claims promptly settled-but ~
think It unlikely that the simple arproprj-
afsos Of Eve millions Of dollars. on he mart
Of nation % rich in means a Funce.
should have brought about 90 much poll
''cal confusion The kings party, II the
word may be used, has 4 large numerical
majority in the chamber of deputies, $50
out Of 450-but much Of the talent and
personal influence If France is arrayed a.
zainst him-being republicans, Bcnapsr-
lis.s and royalists, proper. The charac-
Ter and cOnduct Of the king, with changes
II avarice, and unworthy dabblangs in
'socks, &e- are very freely spoken of in
'ome Of the publ Journals. Louis Phil-
iPPe is said to - the richest individual
|" Europe, the 'noney kings" not excep-
ed.
We regard these events a. unfavorable
o eeace-if the presidents views, a. to
.reprisaIs," are TO be carried oue-for
hey seemingly forbid an expectation that
ne money to pay our claim will be appro-
'r'ated before the message is in Paris
md after ITS arrival, our opinion is, las
tated last weck,) that ali appropriation
vail net be made.
SO much with respect to our relations
With France. But we have also a deli
ate and difficult matter to settle with
treat Britain, who has seized upon a |
arge part Of Maine, and forced m.sy citi-
ems Of that state, las we say that they
re, into the dominion Of her laws. On |
his subject lively debate took place in |
ne house Of representatives on Wednes-
ay, which the ..National Intelligencern
romises to give at large. The fomenessI
Nth which Name has submitted 10 this
ismemberment Of her territory and I'm
other citizens, for some consid- !
rable time past-is not less remarks BILE |
han the stern scsolation and perfect hon.
sty with which she seemed willing to pro-
eed to extremit;es. to recover her citi-
ems and soil. The secret history Of these
'atters must be highly interestins-and.
IN letting VS. know how the
resent Psaceahle disposition SO eudden!y
accceded the former spirit for war!
In one Of his late letters from the NEIGH
curing British Province Of New Bruins
'sck, the editor Of the Portland Advert
ser thus describes the town Of St. Johns
