(Nat. Gaz.)
We have read within a few days several recent letters from Paris. They have all been addressed to commercial gentlemen, and on affairs of commerce, but the writers, nevertheless, concurred in opinion that the government of Louis Philippe could not much longer continue. All France is dissatisfied, and the spirit that now finds a vent in murmurings and angry discussions in the Chamber of Deputies, will, before long, take bolder ground and precipitate another revolution. We shall rejoice, but it is apparent that the French nation have been deceived and betrayed by those they elevated to power through the revolution of July—we shall lament it, because another change in France will hasten a general war in Europe, and thus millions of human beings will be sacrificed in the struggles which must ensue between liberalism and despotism.—Philad. Ing.
On the 28th December, upwards of 100 of the Deputies of the opposition gave a grand dinner to the principal Polish refugees in Paris. In consequence of the indisposition of General Lafayette, M. Lafitte was in the chair.
