(From the Josrnal dc Paris'.) "y va orumaneet aatee. tte t$l inst. the Count de Villee, Pre- idecnt of the Council of Mifnisters, and Mlinister of Finance, is chirgai, ad intcrim, with the Portefendill of Foreign Afairs, in the room of Viscount de Chateasubriand. This ordinance has put an end to public incertitude: if the idea could for a moment have been etertained that the credit of al. de Villele has been shaken. this rtcp is^ e wproof to us of the Mns's conTfidence, and an official pledge trr the contrary. Thu, thanks to the august wisdlom that gorenri ua with so glorious and firm a hand, it Is again, ir. this in- stance the party of mederation end stability which prevails. Such a res2tf is too momentous, as regards our principles, for us ts omit our congratationson an ascendancy so consistent with the intercsts ct Franlce and the Constitutional Mlonarchy. (From the Courrier Francair.) M1. de Chateaubriand, on repairing yesterday to the Tuileries, found, it is said, the doors, which used to open at his approach, aeut against him; silence and solitude prevailed during his passage, veich uaed to be through ass eager crowd. Before h ecould compre- iend themeaning of this melancholychange, a Husrier approached and informed him, that a packet to his address had been carried to his hotel. Al. de Chateaubriand hastenred home, and found the letter, announcing his destitution. A grand dinner, which was to take place the sa;De day, was immediately countermanded. ' l. de Chateaubnjand quitted at the arstue time the hotel of the Mlinistry, to the great disappointanen_of all those whomn curiosity or malice bwrought in the eveaing to ce hlowthe ex.AIinister supported his Thie choice of a successoe to ill. de Chateaubriand is now the subject of evr7y7 conjecture. M. de Polignac, who was designated rnhia sUcessor three days ao, is-now hardly spoken of. Th e er- Vnns noD named are M.'de Caraman and the Duke of Dondeauvt]le I the lVser to be succeeded in the direction of the Post-office by i1. SOS9nene de Larocobfoucault. It is believed also, that MX. do Cba- tr.lubriand will not quit the Mlinistry alone; A* . de Villele has, it is said, the entrance of 31. de Martignac much at heart. They speak also of the creation of 40 Peers, and the immediate presenta- tica of a new project of law. to operate a redluction in the rentes. 'ro crown these striking marks of f;vour gristed to 5f. de Villelc, it is said he is to receive the title of Duke. The congregation utters loud cries r-siocting the dismissal of 1M. de Chateaubriand ; it is pretended that it views this mesiure as an act of hostility against it- self; in this view, the withdrawing of the law relative to crimes committed in churcheS is not perhaps without importance (Froni the Quolidienne.) On Sunday neorning the Minister for Foreign Affairs (Viscount Chatesubr and) was going to tho Castle of the Tuileries, whesl he 'was informed that an importap.z packet was lying for him at his hotel in the street of the Capu;h,'l1nes. He immediately went back, and found the followino letter from the Prresident nf tle Council :- * Monsieur le Vicvntee,-.f obey the King's orelers, and transmit to you the encloseditirdinance." An hour after, !il. de Chiateaubriand quitted thc Hotel of Foreign felations, and retired to the lodgings which he had occupied in the sthaet of St. ~omiaick. previously to being appointed a TMinister, havn r sea" to N5. die Villele the following note, written in the same - t os y1e as that which he had received .- .onsieur le Come,tI have quitted tHe Hotel of Foreign Af- Sal,, the Department at atyour command." DISMISSAL OP M. OR ChATRAURI1AND.
