We lastnightreceived theFr.nchpspersof Thursday and Friday, and letters from Paris of the same dates. The joarnals. contain no news of the slightest interest to the English publc. We bave as yet no report of the discussions in the Chamber of Peers on the KinanCial project for the reduction of the renics. The commiss:on appointed to examine it consisted of Gount MOLLIE,N . Who was Minister of the Treasury under the Einperor, of Al. Row, late mi- nister of Finance, of the Duke deL'Evis, of the Duke de FITZ- JAS3ES, and three other members hostile to M. de VILLELE'S plan. There was thereforeevery reason to apprehend that the report drawn up by such a.commission would be uufavourable, and aecord. ingly no effort was spared to gain over its m'embers. Four of them have already beenconverted; and as they will form the majority the Apinioidothi thrediefractory Peers will beeof little. consequencee Ni d's6glg "*ib these noble persons had to sustain-betwieensheir love for popularity aud thelr regard to their own interes,nayeuily be conceived from the fact mentioned in one of our private letters, that the Archbishop of PARIS, when cormaendcd by the KnrG to Vote for the project, assared his Majesty, that by doing so he should lose all respect in the eyes of his cleigy, who held the reduc- tion of the rentes in such horror, that several priests had solicit,ed him ,for pernission to offer up public prayer in the churches for the'in-' terposition of [eavea to avertsuch a calamity. il1. DE l1AnTiG-.Ac has been appointed reporter to the commission on the project of law for the septennialitvyofthe Chamber. An absurd repord is stated by the Qzrtidicnne, oir the' authority of letters from Constantinople, that Lord BmoxN had- been suspected there of being poisoned by somerival Greek Chic&-jealous of the aseendent which his Lordship was gaining in the management of Greek affairs.
