* * The articles copied from this Gazette into the Aurora, as translations from French papers, are not translations, but introductory observations on translated articles which immediately follow.—had the editor of the Aurora extended his extract, his readers would have had a chance of seeing the justice of those observations. In the manuscript copy the translated articles were marked with quotations, which were inadvertently omitted in the publication.

In a file of French papers, from the 12th February to the 19th March, we do not find any thing to invalidate the opinion that the French press continues in the same shackled situation in which it was placed at the subversion of the constitution on the fourth of September last.
