General Cavagnac is cast down in despair, having
LOST in great degree his influence wh the assembly,
and well knowing that the army hasan invncble antip
aihy 10 his opinions. His project for sending members
of theassemoly commissioners into the provinces,

The Fauturg ST German has voted as one man for

The impression is either that Prince Louis will be de-

seize this opportunity Of correcting an erroneous i'm
preston which see prevails in the American papers
yecting the disposition of England ards the French
republic. 1t is asSunedgeneray that the English govern
and the Brstish people adverse to the establish
ment Of republican form Of government in France and
DESTROYS Of seeing the restoration Of the Orleans dy
nasty and constitutional monarchy. Nothing can be
contrary to The truth than this. England desires
to republic established ia France not from

Tint the establishment Of such government would be
most conducive TO her Interests She is, therefore
opposed to the establishment of monarchy under any of
the p-eenderS; and hIp3en To know that Lord Nor
mandy has received express instructions avail himself
of every occasion So far diplomacy concerned aid
the government IN establishing the republic any basis
likely TO be generally acceptable 10 the people, and
have stability. You may consider this officially Ger

At the same time it may be observed, that England
will not, under any circumstances, interfere with the in
ernal Of France 50 obsruct the formation
Of any government which the French people may desire
establish. If they elect Napoleon emperor, England
will acknowledge Napoleon. Iflhey appoint the Duks
