POSTSCRIPT.
S ATURDAY.
The Paris papers are Occupied with debates on the Address in the Chamber of . Peers. A motion of Count D'Harcourt, to insert a paragraph favourable to Poland, was opposed by Count Mole, supported by Count Montalembert, and rejected. Coont Mole observed, that the annual exhibition of feeling in favour of Poland merely irritated Russia : there was no intention, it was well understood, of doing any thing for the Poles. Much admiration has been excited by a brief and spirited speech from the Duke of Orleans, in reply to a remark of the Marquis Dreux Breze, that France regretted the marriage of her Catholic Princes with Protestant ladies : the Duke declared himself a true Catholic, and that his children should be educated in the Catholic faith, but repudiated the notion that in his choice of a wife be should be bound by fetters from which other Frenchmen are free.
