The Paris Ministerial journals have been at pains to persuade

the public that the quarrel with Switzerland is entirely at an end, and that the most friendly relations between the two countries would be immediately reestablished. Nevertheless, as we learn from the National, while these ssothing professions were put forth, large bodies of troops were marching in the direction of the Swiss frontier, and a formidable force was collected under General AYMAR. At the same time, the Duke na Wain:Baum gave out that his Government would be satisfied with nothing but a formal decree of the Diet for the prevention of Louis BONA- PARTE's return to Switzerland. Meana bile, the exasperation of the Swiss is represented as extreme; and, according to the Pala correspondent of the Times, General AYSt AR had informed Lours PHILIP that the preparations ter the defence of their entire fron- tier by the Swiss were almost incredibly large. The domibeering Monarch of the Barricades may yet fled it difficult to meet° his threats; especially if the assertion is well founded, that the French army cull(' not be relied upon in an attack on the Swiss for taking part with a nephew of N.■POLICON, and that the state of public feeling in the departments bordering on Switzerland was unsatisfactory. We should imagine that every Frenchman, not debased by corruption, must feel bitter shame at the cowardly proceedings of his Government towards Switzerland, prompted as they are by jealous distrust of French loyalty. Domiciliary visits by the police are of almost daily occurrence in Paris ; and all political prisoners, and those at large not sub- ject to surveillance, are watched with extreme caution. The effiact of all this has been felt at the Bourse, and Frepob Stocks have fallen.
