t r rvn foreign these hwncvftw liavo already follow example of pesth cd tin france the london courier of july 6 says wild aod senseless as the project of couoierrevolutioo in france by the exroyal family may appear to be we understand from an authentic source that there arc at this moment maoy persoos ready lo receive them in france aod that the parlizans of heory v calculate on suc cess not so much through the influence anil exertions of thai party as through tbe drsatis faction which many ofjthe liberals are said to feel at the want of energy in their present sovereigoand the stagnation ofiradeiotbe french capital by which nranythousands are in a state uf destitution favorable to any attempt at revolution in nbich money may not be wanting tbe london courier mentions a coin age of five franc pieces to the value of 50000 sterling with henry v roi de france on one side aod tbe fleur de lis on the obverse and states that proclama- lions to iho french people in the name of henry v have been printed in london we cao hardly believe the exiled bourbons to he so besotted as ao enterprise for the re covery of their dominion in france would bespeak them to be calais july 2 this town is at this mo ment in the greatest confusion and nothing for the last two hours has been heard but the drams beating to arms the word of command from the military officers or the exulting shouts of the populace from every quarter the cause of this tumult it ap pears is tbe general discontent of the workiog classes at the present extraordina ry high price of corn which they attribute principally to the monopoly of a few rich merchants in this town and neighbourhood- it has been stated io london by a person of high rank who is known to possess the best means of information that tho french elections will go much against the minis ters and that m cassimir pcrrier and his colleagues must cither give way to the li beral party or retire from office the li beral party demands 1st the full execu tion of the plaos of july as promised by a1 lafayette 2d tho diminution by one third at least of the enormous civil list appropriated to the king 3d a declara tion io favour of the poles and a cordial alliance with belgium undoubted iiseoms to be that a large and j daily iocreasiug par ly in france are opposed to the line of po licy followed by louis phillippo ho may succeed for the moment in overawing or suppressing them but he treads on danger ous ground should tho elections return majority jo ttwjt of the liberal party be roust adopt a very different course of fo reign policy to that which he has hitherto followed and io any event if polaod falls the french natiou will demand of him a ecrioos account for his ioaction in a cause which excites so strongly their sympathies wc learn from captain forbes of tbeship ysidra that on the 2nd of july being then at gibralter a boat came alongside and in formed him that 20000 french troops were preparing to march through spain into portugal if there were any good foundation for such a rumour we should doubtless have heard of it ere this through the french papers jour of commerce extract of a letter dated havre june 29 tho
