LOUIS PHILIPPE A POPULAR
KINGi

4 KING!
The following is an extract ofa Fat
letter from Paris, from 'the pen of M
Brooks, of the Portland Advertiser
Wegive it as an act djustice toward
| Louis Philippe, concerning whom W
have on more than one occasion mad
use ofpretty harsh language. Tn
King ofthe French may be honest an,
true to the interest Of'the snajority d
| the people Of France-he may enter
Tain kind feelings to wards this country
bat ws'have strong doubts upon thi
subject. His ungenerOus treatment o
Lsfayette will not soon be. forgotten
by the Admirers'ofthat patriot, sHt
there are thousands ofithem on tbdgh
sides of the water. Phil. Ina.
<'LOuis Philippe,a sincerely believe
h as throughout done ill he could, con
|'sisteOtly with the preservation Of his
popularity here, the first point with a
Frenehking, to accelerate the payment
Of the American Indemnity. But he
has a difficult ministry to manage, and
above III, there is sndthing that The
French hate so much, as the refunding
of money in this matter. Every franc
we Rave drew out Of them, is like
dfawing a tooth out of their heads. -
The French. have been accustomed 10
Sd&e not to pay. EAgain, believe
that the Americans have no better
friend 'thanLouis Philippe, so far as1
can judge from the attention and civil
tiles he has ever shown to Americans
and is showing at the present time, of
ten in preference to the high titled no
biememdf olhercO OuurieS. The name
oil an American citizen, is indeed often
passport to the TuiIeries, when no
other thus untitled, any unadorneH
names would everbe invited TO enter
This attachment 10 our country, he
has more serviceabIy manifested. in
his late effIr's to induce his ministry
10 overlook much that is in the late
message, 'and'to;studXithem dill
gently the few words they seem to find
of apology aud explanation. Louis
Philippe indeed, is one oflhe few mon
archs that have understood the ar, of
governing the French. Probably no
other man than himself, in his condi |
too could have wrung this sppropria.
Iion from the Chambers, Tried as he
has heen in adversely, he knows hhw
10 hold on and to let so, when ii is ne
:essary;-aud The art of refining in, 6, |
letting lose the spirit of the French, |
he possesses as we'll as ever Napoleon
lid--aIways remembering that the
great wish'ef his hear;s II fix his'fam |
ly frmly upon the th; zone. AT the
present time, no monarch is more pop
liar. There is no enthusiasm in his
behalf --but The popularity seems to be
'biding and deeply rooted in all tbe |
gterestof The: FeaGth."

HIGHLY IMPORTANT!

Special Message Of the President j the United
States recommending The prohibition Of French
products and The entry Of French uessei. into our
ports
We lay before our readers to day. Document
of the highest importance received by our express
at ii o'clock las, evening, it being no less than
the long expected Special Message of the Execu-
tive recommending total prohibition Of French
goods into our country, and he entry Of French
ressels into our ports For this very decided
measure we have long been prepared as inevitable
in consequence of the fixed determination of the
French no, to pay the stipulated indemnity,
and VIC have but too much reason to apprehend
that our worst forebodngs are about to be realized.
We repeat, that France DOES NOT intend 20
pay us dollar, and that it is our duty to be Pre-
PARED for the worst.
