PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.
Paris. October '2, 1533. Tamer is a geed deal of stir in the departments of the Police here about the real or pretended news febin the South, of in important conspiracy in favour of the young H E N it v. For some days past, the Qootillicone and the other Cannot p i per,. have held a build tone ; and in many of the S;i1100n$, the clique of St.. ( ier:1171111haVe teeth a language which implies great confidence in the resources of their parry. :Still it is it question, whether the Police have really received ac- counts of the nature asserted, or have invented the story lit order to furnish an excuse for a few arrests. TL:e last condemnation of the Tribune has produced art effect very unfavourable to the Government on the public mind. 'There is one prosecution, however, called for alike by Liberals and Carlists—tkzt of the Quotidienne ; both parties declaring, that if the Alinistry mete to attempt it, they would give extended publicity to a ell irge against Lours Put me which would sink hint entirely in public esteem. The Quotidiewte has published an article stating, that when the Spanish patriots were preparing for the last at- tempt at revolution in Spain, one of them waited on Louts Plume; and, after representing to hint that lie was deeply interested in extending- Libaralisin throughout the win Id, asked for assistance towards the intended attempt lit Spain. The King replied, that lie was pledged to the Holy Al- liance to take no part in foreign revolutions; and that if it were known that he gave the least countenance to a scheme which would produce lle- iublicankin and perhaps Anarchy, they would march against him and deprive hint of los throne. " Oh !" observed the wily Spaniard, " you tied not be afraid of Anart-hy ; for we have made lip our mind, that if you will support Its, we will proclaim the Duke de IN etmoces King of Slain." " That alters the ease." said the King : " Promise me secrecy, and 1 will give you ;00,000 francs," (d,00(:/..—no very magniticent sum—for sorb an ubject. bat an enormous amount for Lot'Isfloata to give. ) The money, :slys the Ctoili,lie;,,,e,, mentioning tine !roues of tit, parties, wan p dd. No notice has been taken of this " infamous libal," as it is called by G■7,s than a denial of its truth : but why is not the Quotidienne prosecuted as well as the Tri!,,,ene? The last fine upon the Tribwirlias not yet laten collected by subset iption ; but in a day or two the amount will be made up. The nornival editor. who is re- sponsible :or what appears in the paper, has an allowance of about 4,0110 francs a year, with which Ice appeals content. There inn other person: I-tuna:creel with the Teihriere, in prison for short per:anise who receive, according to g,tne- ral report, about (i.tell) francs each. The circulation of the Tribune being no more than still:lidera to cover the ordinary expresses of it newspaper, there must of course be a pernetnent fund for these extraordinary charges. LAFA VETTE and his friends deny having any thing to do with the T, ibilier, or any other paper than the Niiiiontil ; but it IS well known that tire 31oderate Republicans support it, as they find it very useful at times. When they want to try the public pulse, they put forth a feeler in the "Triboor. If the public adopt it, they do the same in the Airtiontd, and obtain all the credit of it. If, on the contrary, people appear alarmed at its violence, it is instantly cried down by: the The friends of the Duchess de Ennui, who are really nuiaertees here, Emelt if any one talks of her last Jima: pas. A thousand absurd stories are told of her
boldness. Among others, it is said, that she was in Paris for three weeks, anti
lift her curd Int 7'i:ill:ries. And this is really believed ! That she was in Paris, 1 have ton doubt : and one of her partisans, a French Count, who was with her in La N'ead:.e, declares that she once passed by the Tuileries in open thy.
