Internal Situativn of Frtntt.
From the London Morning Chronicle, Feb

Pj*is, Jan* 28.
A traveller arrived from I*yons,and who
was enabled to judge of events, relates that
every disposition had been made for a gen^
eral movement braking out in that city, on
thel8th of the month ? but that two hours
before the appointed time* a counter order
was gidhi Some persons had not time to

7 moreover tharthe general movement ^ro?
jected, is only deferred ; that the police
have got the principal clues to it- but that
It tsirot lit their power to avoid it, be
cause this affair is connected with the
movement of the Austrians on the fron
tiers of Italy, and with the troops of Gen.
Frlmontrfn the neighborhood of Lorraine.

We have new details respecting the ??
Vents of Lyerie. It appear* certain, that
there was a Pro visionary Government es

prisoning the principal Chiefs. They ate
yfct however* tar from having nothing to
apprehend trortr that quarter. All Dau
pinny is in iiniauon, wnt<ty leaves room
to apprehend every moment a general ri
sing. which the authors will have much dill
ficulty in keeping down. If, as affirmed,
, tht Austriaiyrpops are approaching, It is

hasten to rally themselves again under the
