The Continental journals, received this morning, are destitute of important

news. It is said that the American Charge d'Affaires has announced to Louis PHILIP, that the Government of the United States will not make the explanation or coneession required by the French Chambers as a preliminary to the payment of the twenty-five millions of francs. To this declaration, a fall, which occurred in the Funds at Paris on Wednesday, is attributed.

In default of graver matters, the Parisian Opposition papers are making much of the bacchanalian revelries of TIMERS and some of his colleagues at Count VIGIER'S, to which we have alluded in the sum- mary of Foreign News. The Courier Fran9ais appeals to reports generally current.

" From public reports and vulgar vauntings it appears, that an explosion of petards under the table, and musket-shots tired in the corridors, were accom- panied by laughs and remarks, which recalled the Fieschi machine. Is this denied ? It has been said that a mock attack of barricades, and a sham fight between troops and Republicans, took place. Is this denied? A Parlia- mentary drollery was spoken of, in which the gestures and sallies of the Presi- dent of the Chamber were mimicked. Is this denied ? It was said that a noc- turnal charivari, executed with cauldrons, saucepans, &c. was followed by something worse. Is this denied ? Finally, scenes were said to have passed, far beyond the fun of schoolboys, or of the most Bacchic gayety,—such a scene as expression cannot be found to paint, and with which the imagination is tainted in conceiving."

This calls to mind the stories of some of GEORGE the Fourth's freaks in the kitchen at Windsor. But then, a King can do no wrong, and a Minister ought to be a well-behaved personage.
