P- WILLIS.) Paris.--It seems to me as if I was goingback ft month to recall my departure from Havre, my mpmorv is so clouded with later incidents. !-as awaked on the morning after I had written to you, by a sevaht, who brought me at the same time a cup of coffee, and at an hour before through the huje uayii"" " .- i . o - gate? e nf hft town on our way iu i ;tri.s. j m Vv'noie uusiuras ui wiiij. n-v- ... . v ...... vr.c exceedingly. The construction of this ve hicle has been "often described; but its separate apartments, (;it four different prices.) its enor mous size; its comfort, and clumsiness, cjnd, more than all, the driving of its postillijms, struck me as equally novel and diverting. This last mentioned performer on the whip and voice, (the only two accomplishments heat all culti vated,) rides one of the three wheel-horses, and drive? the four or seven which are in advance, ns a grazier in our country drives a herd of rattle, and they travel very much in the sume manner. There' is leather enough in two of their clumsy harnesses to say nothing of the postiltionVbopts, to load a common horse heav ily. I never witnessed such a ludicrous ab-t-rncc of contrivance and tact a in the appoint nents and driving of horses in a diligence. It is so in every thing in France, indeed. They Io not possess the quality, as a nation. The storyjofthc (Jascoignc, who saw a bridge for the Jirst'time, and admired the ingenious economy that placed it across 'the river, instead of length wise, is hardly au exaggeration, . At daylight I found myself in (he coupe, (a Anle- seat for 'throe in; the front of the body of the carriage, with windows before and at the eilio,) with two whiskered and mustached companions, both veijy polite, and very unin teli nble. I soon suspected, by the science W-hir.il niv' neighbor on the ieit hummed i.ttle snatches unpopular operas, that he was a Professed singer, (a conjecture with proved iraf.) and itwasenuallv clear, from the rorn- mexion of the port-feuiile on toelapoiihc other, J hat his vocation was . liberal one a conjee- i .re which proved true also, as he confessed h'iraself a diplomat, wlicn we became better , acquainted. -For the first hour or more my j uttf ntinn was divided betv- en the -dim but j beautiful outline ot tne country ny me siowiv approaching light of the dawn, and my nerv ousness at the distressing want of skill in the postillion's driving. The increasing and sin gular beauty of the country, even under the disadvantage; of rain and the late season, soon absorbed all lay attention however, and my in voluntary and half-suppprcssed exclamations of pleasure", unusual in an Englishman, (for whom I found I was taken,) warmed the diplo matist into conversation, and I passed the three msuing hours very pleasantly. My compan ion was on his return from Lithuania, having l.rrn sent out by the French committee with j.rmsand money for Poland. He was, of course, most interesting fellow traveller; and allow mr for the -difficulty with which I understood the language, in the rapid articulation ot an T.thusiastic .Frenchman, I rarely have been Vttcr pleased with a chance acquaintance. I found he had been in Greece during the revo lution, and knew intimately my friend Dr. H , tho best claim he could have on my in terest, and I soon discovered an answering re commendation ofjnysolf to him. The province of Normandy is celebrated for i's picturesquo beauty, but I had no concep tion before of the cultivated picturesque of an old country. I have beena great scenery-hun-r ia America, and my eye was new, like its hiHs and forests. The massive, battlemented buildings --of tho small villages we passed through, the heavy gate ways and winding avenues and antique structure of the distant anil half-hidden chattcaux, the perfect cultiva tion, and. to me. singular anncarance ofa whole t : -- r . ii i landscape witbout a fence or a stone, the absence of all that we define by comfort and neatness, and the presence of all that we have seen in pictures and read of in books,-but consider as 'he representations and descriptions of ages pone by all seemed to me irresistibly like a dream. I could not rub mv hand over my eves, :md realize ; myself. I could not believe that "u ithin' a month's voyage, of ray home, these spirit-stirring places had tood all my lite-time as they do, and have forage's, every stone as it was laid in times of worm-eaten history, and looking to my eyes now as they did to the eyes of knights and dames in the days of French chivalry. j I looked at the constantly occurring ruins ot the obi priories, and the magnificent and still . used churches, and. my' blood tingled in my veins, as I saw in the stepping-stone at their doors cavities that the sandals of monks, and the iron-shod feet of knights in armor a thousand years ago,had trodden and helped to wcarfand the, stone crossover the. threshold, that hundreds of generations had gazed upon and passed under. You will find the size, population, & c. of Rouen in the guide books. As my object is to record impressions, not statistics, leave you to consult those laconic chronicles, or the books of a thousand travellers, for all such informa tion. fThe Maid of Orleans was burnt here, as Vou know, in the fourteenth century. There is -u statuc erected to her memory which I did hot sw for jt raincd; and after the usual Flop of two horses, as the barometer promised 110 chtUlfP in ttio nr no iVm J h'oc itivinnc ,be Paris, I took my place in the night -";iice, and kept on. - in v m il i ill dark watching the f-nis tha poured into the broad mouth cf the postillion's boots from every part of his dress, and musing on the fate of the poor Maid of Orleans ; and then, sinking down into the com fortable corner the coupe, I slept almost with out interruption till the next morning the best comment in the world on the only comfortable Vi.-r.rr I I, wt pin in France, a diligence. lliill M. V J m ww - It is a pleasant thing in a foreign land to see the familiar face oi the sun; and as he rose over a distant hill on the left, I lifted the window of the coupe-to let him in, as l wouia 4K -i,wr to a lono--missea incna. ne A ! 1 TT ' soon reached a heavy cloud, however, and my hopes of bright weather when we should enter the metropolis departed. It began to rain arain; and the postillion, after his blue cotton frock was soaked through, put on his great-coat over it-an economy which is peculiarly French, & which I observed in every succeding postillion on the route. The last twenty-live miles to Paris are uninteresting to the eye; and with my own pleasant thoughts, tinct as they were with the brightness of immediate anticipation, and an occasional laugli at the grotesque figures and equipages on the road, i made-myseli passably foreigner, and, after inquiring at what price I contented till we entered the suburb of St. would have a room, introduced me to the land Denis. ' lady, who took me across a large court, the It is something to sec the outside of a sepul-j chre for kings, and the old abbey of Saint j Denis needs no association to make a sight of j it worth many a mile of weary travel. I could not stop within four miles of Paris, however, and I contented myself vith running to get a second view of il in the rain while the postil- Hon breathed his horses. The strongest as- sociation about it, old 6l magnificent as it is, is the j fact, that Napoleon repaired natter the revolu-! tion; and standing in probably tne lincst point for its front view, my heart leaped to my throat as I fancied that Napoleon, with his mighty thoughts, had stood in that very spot possibly, and contemplated the glorious old ptte before j that are more delightful than a french break me as the place of his future repose. J fast. If you takeit at your room, it appears By a fortunate chance tiic postillion left the , in the shape of two small vessels, one of coffee usual route at Balbec, and pursued what appear-! and one of hot milk, two kinds of bread, with ed to be a by-road through the grain-fields and j a thin, printed slice of butter, and one or two vineyards, for twenty or twenty-live miles. ! of some thirty dishes from which you choose, ! I can only described as an uninterrupted green , lane, winding almost the whole distance through the bosom of a valley that must be one of the very lovliest in the world. Imagine one of such extent, without a fence to break the broad swells of verdure, stretching up from the winding and unenclosed road on either side to the apparent sky; the houses occuring at distances of miles, and every one with its thatched roof covered all over with bright reen moss, and its walls of over with bright green moss, and its walls ol j marlinterlaidthroughali the crevices withcnng- j ing vines, the whole structure and its appurten-! ces faultlessly picturesque, and when you have i conceived a vailey that might have contented j Rasseias, scatter over it here and there, groups ; : (i men, women ana ennuren, ine ltorman peas- antry in their dresses ot all colors, as you see J on what is fine or curious. The hacknied de them in the prints and if there is any thing ; scriptions in the guide books profaue the spir that can better please the eye, or make the ini- it of a place. I never look at them till after I agination more willing to fold up its wings and , have found the object, and then only for dates, rest, my travels have not crossed it. i have j The Rue Vivienne was crowded with people, as recorded a vow to walk through Normandy. j I emerged from the dark archway of the hotel As we approached Rouen the road ascended to pur?ue mywanderings. gradually and a sharp turn brought us suddenly A walk of this kind, by the way, shows one to the brow ol a steep hill, opposite another oi j the same height, and with the same abrupt de scent, at the distance of a mile across. ' Be tween lay Rouen. I hardly know how to de scribe, for American eyes, the peculiar beauty of this view; one of the most exquisite, I am told, in all France. A town at the foot of a hill is common enough in our country, but of the hundreds that answer to this description, I can- not name one that would allord a correct com- panson 1 he nice and excessive cultivation ol i the grounds in so old a country give the land- j scape a complexion essentially diflercnt from I ours it there were another Mount tlolyokc, for instance, on the other side of the Connecti cut, the situation of Northampton would be very similar to that of Rouen; but, instead of the ru ral village, with its glimpses of white houses seen through rich and luxurious masses of foli asre, the mountain sides above broken with rocks, and studded with the gigantic and un- touched relics ot the native lorest, ana the hems below waving with heavy crops, irregularly fenced and divided, the whole picture one of an over-lavish and half-subdued Eden of fertility; instead of this, I say, the broad meadows, with the winding Seine in their bosom, are as trim as a girl's llower-garden, the grass closely cut, and ofa uniform.surface of green, the edges of the river set regularly with willows, the little bright islands circled with trees, and smooth as a lawn; and instead of green lanes. lined with bushes, single streets running right through the unfeuced verdure from one hill to another, and built up with antique structures of stone, the whole looking, in the coup d'acil of distance like some fantastic model ofa town, with goth ic houses of sand-paper, and meadows of silk velvet. After four miles more, over a broad straight avenue, paved in the centre and edged with trees, we arrived at the Porte St. Denis. I was exceedingly struck with the grandeur p the gate as we passed under, and referring to the guide-book I find it was a triumphal arch erected to Louis the Fourteenth,, and the one by which the kings of France invariably enter. This also Avas restored by Napolcan, with his infallible taste, without changing its design; and it is singular how every thing that great man touched became his own, lor wno remem bers for whom it wa.. raised while he is told who employed his great intellect in its repairs? I entered Paris on Sunday at eleven o'clock. I never should have recognized the day. The shops wero all open, the artificers all at work, the unintelligible criers vociferating their wares, and the people in their working-day dresses. We wound through street after street, narrow and dark and dirty, and with my mind full of the splendid views, of squares, and columns and bridges, as I had seen them in the prints, I could scarce believe I was in Paris. A turn brought us into a large court, that of the Messagene, the place at which all travellers are set down on arrival. Here my baggage, was' once-more inspected, rand after a half hour's delay, I was permitted to get into a fiacre, and drive to a hotel. As one is a speci men of all, I may as well describe the Hotel cT Etrangers, Rue Vivienue, which, by the way, I take the liberty at the same time to recom- mend to my friends. It is the precise centre for the convenience of sight-seeing, admirably kept, and, being nearly opposite Galignani's, that bookstore of Europe, is a very pleasant re sort for the half hour before dinner or a rainy day. I went there at the instance of my friend the diplomat. The fiacre stopped before an arched passage, and a fellow in livery, who had followed me from the Messagerie, (probably in the double character of porter and police agent, as my passport wTas yet to be demanded,) took my trunk into a small office on the left, over which was written "Concierge" This person, who i3 a kind of respectable door-keeper, addressed me in broken English, without wait ing for the evidence of my tongue that I was a' house are built round the yard always in France,) to the corresponding story of the house. The room was quite pretty, with its looking - glasses and curtains, but there was no carpet, and the fire-place was ten feet deep I asked to sec another, ana another, and another,- they were all curtains and looking-glassc and stone floors! There is no wearying French w oman, and I pushed my modesty till I found a chamber to my taste a nut-shell, to be sure, but carpeted- and olowng my polite housekeeper out, I rang for breakfast and wasj at home in Paris! There are lew thill Of s bousbt with money j the latter flavored exquisitely enough to make one wish to be always at breakfast, but cooked and composed I know not how or of what. The, coffee has an aroma peculiar exquisite something quite different from any I ever tasted before; -and the petite-pain, a slender biscuit between bread and cake, is; when crisp and warm, a delightful accompaniment. All this costs about one third as much as the beefsteaks and coffee in America, at thesametime thatyou are waited upon with a civility that is worth three times the money. It still rained at noon, ami finding that the usual dinner hour was iive, I took my umbrella for a walk. In a strange citv I prefer always to stroll aoont at hazaro, coming unawares up- a great deal of novelty. In France there are no shop-men. No matter what the article of trade hats, boots, pictures, books, jewelry, any thing and every thing that gentlemen buy you are waited on by girls, alwrays handsome, and always drest in the height of the mode. They sit on damask covered settees, behind the coun ters; and when vou enter, bow and rise to serve you, with a race and smile of courtesy that .would become a drawing room. And this is universal. I strolled on until I entered a narrow passage, penetrating a lonff line of buildings. It was thronged with people, and passing in with the rest, I found myself nnexpectodly in a scene that equally surprised and delighted me. It was a spacious square enclosed by one entire buildinor. The area was laid out "as a garden, planted with long avenues of trees and beds of flowers, and in the centre a fountain was play j inor in the shape of a fleur-de-lis, with a jet at about forty feet in height A superb colonade ran round the whole square, making a covered gallery of the lower story, which was occu pied by shops of the most splendid appear ance. and thronged through its lonn sheltered ' a O paves by thousands of gay promenaders. I was the far-famed Palais Royal. I remcm bered the description I had heard of its gain blins-houses, and facilities for every vice, and looked with anew surprise on its Ala'din-like magnificence. The hundreds of beautiful pil lars, stretching away from the eye in long and distant perspective, the crowd of citizens, and women, and officers in fmTuniform, passing and re-passing with French liveliness and polite nes, the long windows of plated glass glitter ing with jewelry, and bright with every thing to tempt the fancy, the tall sentinels pacing between the columns and the fountain turning over its clear waters with a fall audible above the tread and voices of the the thousands who walk around it who could look upon such a scene and belie-e it what it is, the most corrupt spot probably, on the face of ; the civilized world ?

February 15th, 1832 PROPOSALS BY ROBERT NESBITT & JAMKS'c WALKER, For publishing in the rCity ot Richmond, a new Religious Newspaper, to be called the RICHMOND EVANGELIST ETHELBERT DRAKE, Editor.

When we look at the extensive character of the work now carrying on through this cout.neM, and consider the means the Great Head of the Church has bleised, we are constrained to admit that the time has, arrived, in the which, he that is at ease in Zion. wilt be cut off from the promises of God, and bear the mark of reprobacv from lha blessings of the Everlasting Covenant. " The multiplication of Religious Journals at this time, must present pleasing expectations to the minds of a Christian public, and furnish the Minister of the sanctuary with a powerful auxiliary ia the cause of Gospel Truth.
