The FrencA morning papers of Tuesday, which arriveil last night, contain scarcely any political intelligence of in- tcrest. If CHARLES X. dloes not resemble Buo\ArARTr in the big'her attributes of' his genius, or imitate him in the splendour of his unrlertakings, he seems resolved at lca?t 3;ct to-be far behind him in the robustness of his sports, and thc rapidity of his movements. we arc tolti, for in- stancej that on 'Monday last he rose at six in the morning, heard masa, at half-past six, set out for Rambouillet after breakfast, hunted the whole day in the forest of that Rtoyal re.?idence, dilied in the Chateau, and returned to the Tuileries at half-past nine in the evening. Rambouillet is at the distance of 30 miles from Paris, and the sport must have been bad if the Royal party dill not incur a much greater degree of exertion in the forest than on the roadl in going and returning. This, therefore, was no slight day's work for a man of 67 years of age; and the fact is not men- tioned as aniy uncommon display of acLivity, but stated as an ordihary occurrenee, in onie of the usual Court paragraphs The late death of an academiiician (M. LACRETELLE) has left one of the forty chairs vacant for a new literary aspi- rant; and, notwithstanding the late prostitution of acadenni-.! cal honours, several can(didates of merit have appeared. The chief of these are the twvo most popular poets in France at the present moment, L1M. CAssHIan DjC LAVGOXE and M. DEt LA MARTi xE,the former belonging to the Liberal,and ihe latter to the Royalist party. Probably the MNinister df the Interior may think proper to suppress the fame of the j'essenie7nnes, and of the MeditationsPoeliques, as he sup- presse-d the merit of introducing vaccination. In that Pase, he may assign the vacant chair to any Trappist or Jesuit whom he may choose to invest with literary honours. Flattery will never have an end as long as Kings or Em- perors exist. Thq stock-brokers of Paris made a solemn in- aucguration O0l MIoinday of the bust of CHABLuS X., wYith the following inscription:- - - _ 'Terris " Nibil majus meliusve Fata donavere bonique Divi-" The following are extracts from the Etoile, dated Wed- nesday, Nov. i7 : "iMADRID, Nov. 11. The King and the Royal Fasnily are still at the Escurial, A Royal decree, published in the GQa.rU of Madrid, contains the following regulations:.-- " Complaint being continually made of the conduct observed by the officers whe made part of the Revolutionary Army, notwith. standing the benefit of the amnesty of the ist of May, this year, his tlajesty orders- 1 '. The Captains-General shall take out of the hands of-the said officers all horsee fit for the service of the cavalby or the artillery which have belonged to the army called Constitational. "' 2. All articles of equipment and harness tballbe taken with tihe horses, 3 ' 3. These regulations are not applicable to officers who have known mear.s of subsistence, and whose lawful property the horses are.' " Another decree of His Majesty regulates the plan of instruc. tion in the seminaries under the direction of the Bishops and Arch- bishops. Thie ecclesiastic discipline is to be re.estabhlshcd accord- ing ts the precepts of tIle sacred Council -of Trent, in the-chapter DJe Reformatione. Public instruction has been the object of His Majfety's special attention. By his decree of the 14th of October, he hnsjust laid down the bases of the general organization of the system of study in the whole k.ngdom. It is the result of the la- boars of the committee appointed for that purpose by the King in the month of July labt. His Mi1ajesty has ordered this new plan to be printed, that every person qualified to give sn opinion on this irm. portati subject may do so in proper time.

"' Tile Qaotidienn; says, the evacuation aend the indemanity were discussedt; that the President of the Council explained the subject of the deliberations; that his Mtajesty put the question; that each memnber gave his opinion singly ; and that the King said, ' I thank you, gentlemen, I will examine.' '~ The incolherence and contradictionis of all the accounts sufflce to prove that the journals do not know wilat pussed in the Council of State.
