The Moniteur Algiers contains two curl
Gus documents by the Due d'Aumale. First,
despatch issued on learning thesabdicaton
of.his father and tho nomination of the Ouch
ess Of Orleans as Regent
ALc1ERs, Feb q.
.'The Governor General, knowing the pa
triotiem of all, adds nothing to this news.
Nothing can change our duties, Or effect our
duties to France.
III. D'ORLEANS"
The second, issued after learning the ap-
pointment Of the Provisional Government
"ALGIERs, Feb. %, ten at night.
"The Governor General has not received
from France any official communication; but
he is informed that the following despatch
has been addressed to all the Projects and
Sub-Prefects. The Governor-General can
only repeat what he said yesterday-nothing
is changed in our duties towards France: the
population and the army will wait with the
greatest calm fer the orders of the mother
country.
III. D'ORLEANS."
The wonderful unanimity with which ev-
cry official has forgotten his service of the
old Government and pressed for employment
under the new, has excited jealousy among
the watchlul people. 1t is said that but one
Individual stands out Of the crowd of obsequ-
GUS office-scekers: the Viscount Simeon, Di
rector General Of the Tobacco nonopoly-a
very lucrative place-has refused to hold his
Office under the new order of things. The
walls of Paris are crowded with denuncia-
tions of "the clouds Of rapacious vultures
who always appear on the field on the NOR
row Of victory, guided by their unerring
scent for the carrion." The Provisional Gov
ernmcnt has, no doubt, made some mistakes
in necessarily hasty appointments.
A decree Of the Provisional Government
has placed all the personal and real property
in France of the Ex-King and the Princes
and Princesses under seqlestration.
STATE OF PAR1s.-The French cores
pondent Of the London Times of the ll,h
inst, says:-
"The 100000 OF 100000 armed, excited,
all but ferocious men, who throngcd the city
on the 9th of February, are now peaceable,
good humored lahorers or artisans. The
bands of thieves and forcats who ravagcd the
environs, who attempted outrage on the cap
ital, and would have committed them but for
the summary justice inflicted by 4 few indg-
nant insurgents, have disappeared The
city-disfigured by barricadcs at only ten or
twelve yards distance from each other, and
encountered with fallen trees the ruins of
temporary or frail buildings, or other materi-
ais for prompt defence9the streets and
Acknowledgment to-day their ordinary
and orderly appearance. The shops. and
warehouses, which had been universally
closed are now open; tranquility, order, and
industry, prevail. These are some of the re-
suits OF government improrise, for there
are not adozen men in France more surpris-
ed by the position they occupy, than the Min.
listers and other chief of the Provisional Gov
ernment."
