Leuchtenberg IS far from excltn5 the Sat1S It has been said that there would be Receptions, and intrigues, but these may exist without that. Let us come frank ly to the question. There exists, say they, a Napoleonist party, and the proof is, that SIX months ago some men shouted, 'FVfve Ma poleon II.'' Of whom can this party be com posed? Of ambitious men, who pretend to have a right over the people; but the Kmg was elected by the people. It is not, then, this theory of political principles that can be alleged. I will add, that if he came with the talents of his father, the time for conquests IS gone by. There is not one of my fellow-clti- zens who would consent to accept the trea- sure, glory and conquests of the empire, at the price at which we bought them. If the Government can cause Poland to be respected by treaties, and place her under the shelter of universal neutrality, it will have title to our gratitude and that of Europe; it will have gathered a palm that may cause the er-

 TOTS of it's conduct to be forgotten. Under the regime of the Holy Alliance, France was struck out of the list of nations. (Violent

 murmurs) Yes, gentlemen, struck out of the list of nations. France was without in fluence, ard received orders. (Fresh mur-

 murs.) France has resumed her rank. She does not seek to dictate laws to other nations,

 but will not have them laid down for herself. If l have attacked the acts of the Govern mcnt, it has been to do my duty as a good and loyal deputy. will support the measures of

 M. GUIzoT, in long and brilliant speech, 1 first considered the question relating to Bel gium, which he regarded as equally difficult

 and delicate for those who put it to the Minis 1 try, as for the Ministry to answer. He re- minded the Chamber, that the Minister for | Foreign Affairs had declared that France was

 the first to acknowledge the principle of non l intervention. This declaration had made

 strong impression on foreign cabinets, for it l gave the death-blow to the Holy Alliance.-- But added the Hon. Deputy, France, by &C.,

 knowledging the freedom and independence

 of Belgium, had no intention of giving up her | own. Every Government was bound to make | the interests of their own country their first great object and it was in this light that tho

 present question ought to be examined. He

 did not conceive that the destiny of France

 would be affected by the election of the Duke

 de Leuchtenberg to the throne of Belgium,

 but it was clear that it would be in some de- gree embarrassing to the government which

 was therefore bound to use it's influence in pre-

 venting that which might create alarm. The l Hon. Deputy then proceeded to what he call

 ed the real questionable reunion of Belgium | with France. He admitted there were na-

 tural causes for mutual sympathy, and declar- | ed he was not blind to certain considerations which might render the reunion desirable,

 nor was he insensble to the glory and aggran- disenent of France. He conceived that nei- | ther the national dignity nor the safety of

 France called for war, which would not com-

 mence from without the country, but if it

 came, would have its origin within France

 herself, with her own Government, or possi- bly, from the bosom of the Chamber itself.--

 He attributed the agitation that prevailed in

 the public mind to the imperfectly extinguish- | ed spirit of anarchy and conspiracy against

 the fallen Governments; at the same time he declared that men would deceive themselves if they conceived that war abroad would al. lay the fermentation at home.

 M. de CoRsELLEs said it was not sufficient

 to talk, however long and however ably, but

 1t was necessary to act, and entered into a

 long eulogium upon what he called the troha-

 ganda of the people against the frotaganda

 of Kings. ~ ,,e
