London, Tuesday, October ...
The Pat-is papers of Saturday, which arrived last night, v:ontain, no news. The sensible French Royalists (now that a schism has taken place in their party) speak against the ,Wstern at present pursued in and towards Spain, with as mnuch energy and freedom as the French Constitutional. LS, or the great body of the English nation. WVe hail this change as the forerunner of a better system, and are parti- cularly pleasedl to see that able andl active paper, the Journal dee Debats, taking the lead. lWrhile M1. de C'ITA- TFAUBhlAnsN, remained in the Ministry, it could not well entertain us with the waste of French resources ii Spain, andl the hopeless prospect of tranquillity oin the system of an inactive protracted military occupatioPn ot the kingdom. 7Put now,sincebyhis dimissal it has 1Wen left to the free ex- wreziionofhis"tPvnsentimellLsw othour the bias of friendship or the hope of fayour, we. lear of the robbery of France to prolong anarchy on1 the other sile of the Pyreniees.

At that tinme L,ord Strangford had not ,juitted that capita]. He seems to be under some emb,arrassnent. The courier who brougnt him from St. Petersburgh the official in- formation of the appoinment of the 'Marquis de Ribeaupierre to the post of Ambassador at Constantinople, doubtless delivered to hin otber desIatches, informing him that the Anibassatlor will not re- pair to his post till after the entire conclusion of the negotiations be- tween Russia, Austria, and England, on the affiairs of Greece.
