.TIONAL REcisTrit. TIF N Faris, it is said, have been lately more than usually vigilant, and some new measures ifith respect to the French Post Of fice, are understood to have be e n adopted within the last month. There is considerable ferment, though not a word of this, or of the arrest of the above-mentioned persons, is mentioned in the Paris papers. PARIS. Nov. 14 —The tour regiments of Swiss guards, amount• ing, if complete, to 4,800 met?, have receded, within this week, a sudden order to leave their barracks at Conrbevoye and elsewhere, and to repair to Paris, where they have since been quartered. They are expressly commanded to take orders through their own Officers, and only from . the King in person. NOw this measure will be c on strued differently, according to the degree of candour we bring to the consideration of it. We should be altogether insane to imagine that, at the close of 25 years revolution, a return to perfect peace and older can take place at once. • Too many ;elfish interests have been wounded ; too many base and furious passions have beea mor tified; too many minor criminals have fallen with the tyrant who sup• ported then. It would not be magnanimity nor prudence, theietore —it would be childishness in the extreme to shut one's eyes or eats to the deep murmurs and menacing movements natural to such a Ise r od. Long after such a period, vigilance in the Government I but another mine thy wisdom : the safety of the Government will be nearly in exact proportion itg ; and suspicion ought to exist where the grounds tim suspicion nre natural and inevitable. %Schen we hear that great (though exagi4erated) agitation prevails, —that many •mischievous (though very foolish) plans are on laot,— that some persons, of little personal consequence indeet4 have been at rested, and that others more considerable have fallen under the turd displeasure, we are compelled to ask what measures of active precaution have been adopted, to give that displeasure its due weight, and to render the jealousy thus directed against the views of the evil-nrinded, useful and etl'ectual to defeat them. Hence, in stead of alarming, it quiets and eucourages every rati , mal man to find the King employing all the means that political tbresight can suggest, to disappoiat those dangers which the time itself has pro dtleed, and which his own benevolent and lenient spirit has aggra vated rather than diminished. The Cent Suisses form a separate and superior body, composed almost entirely of independent Gentlemen, natives of Switzerland, with the brave and loyal remnants of the old &h. utters of Louis XVI. intermixed. This corps takes place of the garde de Corps itself, an does duty exclusively in the private apartments of his Ma jeqy. The enthusiasm of the Swiss for the House of Bourbon is Geyond any thing I ever witnessed. Orders have been issued to our fleet on the American coast, to detroy every vessel that the capturing Commanders may not deem of sufficient value to send into port. The Property Ta having occasioned a comidet able degree of discussion, we cannot avoid stating, that our opinion on the subject remains the same; and that in our next paper we shall avail ourselves of such assistance as can he' derived from a Pamphlet. cn the subjec►, now on the eve cif publica tion, and with the perusal of the manuscript of which - we have been favoured. ' Ministers appear to anticipate warm opposition to many of their Talliamentary Measures. During the past week, fresh circulars from the Treasury, cc: ached •in cc.i.i/ rasing terms, have been dispatched, requiring the immediate at tendance of their friends 'in town. Some of these circulars have been' sent express, others through the Post Office. Many of them are addressed to Members now on the Con!i ;tent. The postponement of important measures of finance until after Christmas, is, we understand, occasioned by - the absence of many of their reputed friends:—Chronicie.. The Prince Regent arrived at Brighton, on Ft iday, where he •intends remaining until Christmas,- but occasionally visiting town on public business, when necessary. A man, named Wm. Ogilvie, and who also assumes the title of the Earl of Findlater, is now confined as a delifor in a gaol at Eainbtirgh,'at, the instance of G. Canning,.: Esq. M. P. for the recovery of 50001.

The Public have, for some time, had the c o ns o l a ti on o f k now i ng that his Majesty's disoriler hag as sumed a tranquil character. We can state, (says a 1110rIlillg Print,) that there is in this tranquil), nothing of melailtholy, n o taimr t,:•r, of dein eJsiori. His peryerson : of under derstandi. ~ is not that v•alch is caused by the prevalence of any passion u‘.. the reason. On the colitraly, his Majesty's c nclnct exhibits no passion whatsoever. Ir , tt u his present conditiots affords less hope of remedy than that of ..iany others afflicted with mental disease, it is also less deplorable. It is, in short, a mete misapprehension of present circumstances, and a loss of connected, memory ; his remembrance of events not ineluding the relations between them. The King's bodily health i. , excellent, and his disp . position unif o rmly el i e e i fill. It will be griltif) big to the - Public to know, that his Majesty. in his present seclusion, is not without exercise or even amusement He walks in a suite of ventilated apartments, and has, in his sitting-room, his favourite harpsicord • at which he passes several hours daily. BANKRUPTCJES OF BAIVICERS. On Wednesday morning the Bank inz House of Messrs Whitehead and Co: Si(.(:.l payment. It is said that this is tilting to specula tions in ()lithium. The City was thrown into consternation en Thursday evening by another Banking House having stopped payment in Cornl►iil, Mainwairing, Sun and Co. What renders this stoppage remark able, is that the flanking Howe received their customers' check., lilt tour o'clock, hut refused to pay. In consequence of which, atliie Clearing Hone, the other bankers came to a resolution not to pay, through the clearing, any thing to the Banking House that ban stop pet). A plan will he laid before Ministers in a few days, to act as a guarantre to the public against indigent Itank(rs. We arc not in full possession °Hite plan, hot it is said that Bahl:cr. will 4e required to take out licences, ;111(1 to lodge in the Bank of England a certain sum of Consols or other Stock, for which they will receive interest Ina it will remain (not liable to be diverted to any other plirpo4) whilst they remain Bankers, to answer any detichapey, Fhplati they through gambling, or from any other improper means, becoma insolvent. A part of the plan is also calculated to prevent that no. b4ninded issue of the Country Banker's notes, by making them - , (whenever called on) to state upon oath the °Aroma of each sort 4,r , notes they have out, in tile same manner as the Bank of England does. This, it is supposed, will prevent so wide and so destructive an issue as is customary at present ; for when the Country Banker's neighbours see what an amasing issue there is of his paper, they will he cautious in trusting him with such unlimited confidence al they do. While Mr. and Mrs. Canning, in the Leviathan, were detained in Portland Road, the Princess Charlotte of W a l es paid them a visit, and was received with the most distin guished marks of attention. A house has been taken for the Princess of. Wales, at Florence, where she means to reside for some time. Her Royal Highness has been received through all her tour with all the honours and distinctions due to her exalted rank and station. At Cassel, she was visited by the Elector and Eke tress ; at Strasburg, by the Duke of Vat my ; at Berne, by the Grand Duchess Anna l'etrowna, her cousin, averwile of the Grand Duke Constantine; at Geneva, 4:the learned men 'and literati of that Republic ; from Milan, Marshal Count Bellegarde ten! an escort to the frontier to receive her; and her Royal Highness saw at Mi'an the Grand Duch ess of linden, her cousin, and many of the literati of the cburitry.
