The second, issued after learning the ap. pointnent or the Provisional Government - "ALGIERs, Feb. 2R, ten at night. "The Governor-General has not received frdin France any official commnunication; but he i-informed that the following despatch has been addressed to all the Prefects and Sub-Prefects. The Governor-General can only repeat what he said yesterday-nothing is changed in our duties toward, France: the population and the army will wait witli'thb greatest calm for the orders of the'mother doatry. "H. D'ORLEANS." ' The wonderful unanimity with which ev ery official has forgotten his service of the old Government and pressed foremployment uqder the new, has excited jealousy among the watchful people. It is said that but one - individual stands out of the crowd of obsequi ous office-seekers: the Viscount Sineon, Di rector General of the Tobacco monopoly-a very lucrative place--has refused to hold his office under the new order of things. The walls of:Paris are crowded with denuncia tions of "the clouds of rapacious vultures who always appear on the field on the mor row of a victory, .guided by their unerring scent for the carrion." The Provisional Gov ernment has, no doubt, made some mistakes il gepessaril hasty appointments. Adecree fte- Provisional Government has placed all the person~al and real property in France of the Ex-King and the Princes and Princesses under sequestration.

The shops. and warehouses, which had been universally closed are now open; tranquility, order, and industry, pre~vail. These are some of the re sults of a government improvise, for there are not a dozen men in France more surpris 0 ed by the position-tliey occupy', than the Min isters and other chief of the .Provisional Gov 'ernent." REFORM MOVEMENTS IN GERMA NY. The ferment caused by the events in France is leading to movements in various parts of Germany. .Actual disturbances have begun in the Prussian Rhine Provinces. At Cologna on the 3d instant, the populace assembled in for. midable numbers before the Hotel do Ville while the Townm-Counceil wcre fitting there, and presented a demand for thme concession of -rights," wvhich were circulated through the people on slips of printed paper "L.

In addition to this intelligence, the Na. tional of yesterday states that a report was in circulation at Darmstadt t?) the effect that Hungary. had declared itself inde. pendent. RESIGNATION OF ME.TrzalcH.-PARIs, THURSDAY.-The resignation of Prince Metternich is certain, and the circum stances under which it took place. are ex. traordinary. The Prince had declared himself decidedly fiacyouble to concessions in Lombardy, as well as in Bohcmia- and Hungary. With'regurd to Lombardy lie advised prompt and ample concessions. His views met no support, and at the lst council at which h4 assisted, failing to make an impression,-he signified that he had arrived At too advanbed a- period of life to grapple with the difficulties. which he fbresaw would arlse from an obstinate persistance in coercive policy. He did not, however, resign formally at the mo ment. The same evening the Prince went to the theatre. . During the perfor mance some insignificant espression, to the effect of "We iust get rid of these ministers," was caiglht np by the House, and repeated, all bycs being directed.to the venerable statesman, who soon after rose much affected, and at once gave ef feet to his previously expressed intention.

The.exteuio.r 9f the aoble edifice was clad in deep black, and the interior was furnished. with funeral catafalques, tripods, and all the paraphernalia of mour. ning. The streets around the churoie as far as the eye could reach, soon Wcwanle filled with a dense mass hujnan'beings.

Two hundred thiousand marched iu that procession! five hundred thousand spectators hebecld it. It passed along the Boulevards, and every fodthold, from door s:eps to chimney tops, was occu pied.
