VERSAIILES, Jan. 20th, Evening.—The Comic de Chamb.,rd has issued the following manifeito —" The ersistent efforts which have been made to misrepresent my words, sentiments, and acts couipel me to issue a protest. The resolve to leave Chambot d is attributed to a secret thought of ablea! ion. There is no occasion to justify the c:ante! I have traced out for myself, but every hope baacd on the relinquishment of my duties is vain. I shall never abdicate after having for 40 years preserved the monarchical principle intact, which is the. heirloom of France, the last hope of her grandeur and liberties. lean never allow it to be, imperilled. Centrism and anarchy still threaten, us, because the salvation of the country is sought! in personal questions and not in principles. I do, not raise a new flag; I uphold the flag of France. I! am proud to think that it will restore to our atm:es! their ancient prestige. I represent reform, not! reaction. During the trials of the Church I have remembered the traditions of our count] y ; my language on this point has roused blind passions."

Who will make our diplomacy respected, and restore to France her power and rank? Who will ensure peace for the industrious classes, and to the labourer the fink of his toil? lam ready to make any iacriflee compatible with honour, any concessions which are not acts of weakness. I have but one sole passion—the welfare of France; one ambition—to contribute to the reconstruction of the country, which cannot be the exclusive work of a party. I ask for the loyal co-operation and patriot. main of all." The manifesto concludes as follaws: —" Nothing will shake my resolution nor exhaust my patience. Nobody will,, under any pretext obtain my consent to become a legitimate King by revolution."  mom Sladen has been appointed by th ,:ccompiny the King of Siam on inn tour in  We understand toal. the Hon.
