-- - -OERVIIAN PAPERS. FRANKFORT, AUGUST Is. His Majesty the King of Prussia arrived on the Sth at Carlsbad. which Prince Hadenberg was to leave on the 10:11 to go to Dobberau. STUTGARD r, AUGUST 12. His Mapsty, by a decree of the 6th of this month, has created a privileged Criminal Tribunal to the mediatised Princes and Counts, and has provisionally instituted for this porpobe the Court of Appeal at Tubengin. BRUSSELS, AUGUST 17. 'The day before yes•erday, in the evening, his Grace the Duke of Wellington, accompanied by se veral Ofli:ers of his Staff, arrived in this city, coming from London, and alighted at the Hotel de Belle Vue. Yesterday morning, before day-break, his Grace departed with General Kraycnhoff, who is charged with every thing relative to the execution of the plan of the newfortifications which are cr,nstrtictin ,, on the Southern fruitiers of the kingdom. His G race is going to Charleroi, Namur, and other towns. AuousT 18.—We learn by letters from Mentz, that the whole city has been thrown into alarm by a quar rel between some Austrians and some Prussians. The. soldiers of both nations ran furiously about the streets, loading their arms. They fired several times, and blood has flowed. The two Governors spewed great energy, and succeeded in restoring order. The cause of the dispute is still unknown, as well as the num ber of killed and wounded. One Chevalier has been arrested at Maestricht, for crying Napoleon for ever ; I hope he will soon Come back." He was sentenced to only a month's imprisonment, being drunk at the time.' AUGVaT 19.—The Duke of Wellington, after having visited the works erecting at Charleroi, and ost a part of the Banks of the Meuse, as well as the Ct.tdel of Liege, has returned to this city. Yester day morning, at the sucment when the prizes were distributing to the pupils of the Royal School of Design in the saloon of the Orangery, his (race was visaing the Museum ; the Chiefs of the Institution being informed of this, immediately waited upon him, and requested him to honour this ceremony with Lis pr , •:-.ence; the illustrious General condescended With the greatest affability to their request. On his einrance into the saloon, which was filled by a Int niercus and brilliant assembly, unanimous acclama tions expressed the public admiration and tespect for the Hero of Waterloo. His Grace, at the intteaty of the Directors of the Establishment, deigned tc de liver the prizes to the successful candidates; and the first who obtained this honour, having by a happy thought offered to the Bri:ish Hero in exclta..ge a branch of laurel. the applauses were renewed wan still mole warmth : the llake • was out of unitoi so, aad wore no Orders. His Grace has now left tha city to go to his head-quarters at Cambray. and Crum thence to Paris. VIENNA, AUGUSI The Emperor will depart on the 20th of this month to go and pass some days on his estate at Hollitsch,' in Moravia. His Majesty will return by the end of Augu3t. This jaunty would be sufficient, if it were uccessary - , to confute the report which has been fur some months in circulation, and which foreign news- Papers have but lately repeated, that the three allied B-vereigns would have an interview at Toeplitz. For these three days past, there is no longer such a crowd about the Hank, because every one knows for certain the day when he can chatt : le his paper ; but there is sucb a pressure at the Bureau when the petitions are deliveted, that it has been necessary to double the guard. Thts crowd will, however, diminish, in proportit,n as the regularity of paytmat atiall be m ide upon the number of dertionds.— All those who, present thems-lves •annot be (Ps patched with the same celerity and exactness: a dif terence is made, as it is between those who want money for their busintss, and the speculators, who only want to s , and the means of the Bank, and to act upon.the exchange accordingly, though these ate ge. nerally satisfied last and partially. The exchange on Augsburgh has risen to 2871. SWI TZERLAND, AUGUST 9. Several manufacturers of Basle, affected by the , distressed situation in which their workmen are, have jest granted them an increase of wages, partly in bre ia, in order thus to alleviate their misery. The Prince and Princess Royal of Wirtemberg passed the tith at Lausanne, where they were received with every testimony of respect. Upper and Lower Underwald have at length ac cepted the agreement which terminated their too long quarrels. By this act Upper Underwald re mains in possession of the Valley and Convent of Lngelberg, and furnished a proportionate contingent in men and money. The funds which the Convent has paid into the chest of the poor of Lower Under weld remained with the latter. The political rights of the two parties are fixed upon a footing of .perfect equality. There has been also an amicable arrange ment made between the two Rhodes of the Canton of Appenzal. Lucerne has invited the Cantons sepa rated from the Diocese of Constance to a second con ference at Lucerne in September, and has at the Cline time laid before them the urgenvnetessity of rallying round a new national Bishoprick. DRESDEN, AUGUST 9. The Prussian and Saxon Commissioners who were at Dresden, left it some days since to fix the frontier line of the two Kingdoms. It is, however, pretended that these are still several points in dispute. At Leipzie they hope that the sons of Prince Maximilian will study at the University in that city. To make up for the great reduction in the army, the Liedwelir is to be organzed to the number of 40,000 melt. It will compiisa all persons between . 18 and 4u years of age. Those from 40 to 60 will form the Landsturna. The Captains of Circlet are shittly to meet at Dresden to consider of the means of organising these corps, so that the service may be OA little burdensome as possible to the inhabitants. From many expressions in the Norwegian Papers, one sees that Prince Oscariwill shortly appear in the character of Viceroy of Norway. Crn the 4th of July he c enpleted his 17th year; and•accor . ding to the Swedish laws. he will as Prince be of age at IS. Count Eisen, hitherto Governor of Norway, after laying down his office, on which occasion very flat tering addresses were presented to him by the Coun cil of State, Ecc. has Edited to Lis estate. =.

We have also received the Paris Papers of Tuesday They contain ,an interesting article from Civita Vecchia on the subject of the Algerines. The Ame ricans, it would appear, have been beforehand with us, for they have actually commenced the salutary work of destruction. The Turkish Government has left the Regencies, that s is to -say, the Pirates, to themselves. The private letters from Paris state expressly, that Insurrections, headed by Ex-Officers, are not unfre- quint in various parts of France : the Paris Journals are completely silent on these topics. We, neverthe less, must believe the private accounts. They are too minute in their details to be unauthentic. PARI . 3. AUGUST 20. The Criminal Sessions at Dijon have had three dreadful cases betore them. On the 15th, a vine dresser was condemned for murdering his mother : on the 16th, a girl, 19 years of age, was convicted of poisoning her father and mother ; and ott the 17th, a mother was convicted of killing her child. Oa the 19ih, General Veaux, six other parsons, and a fe- male, were to be tried for conspiring against the le gitimate government, previous to March, 1815. Several others, who have been guilty of the same crime, but who have fled, will be tried for contumacy. Two monsters, in the shape of women, have been imprisoned at Bayonne, for burying alive a new born infant, of which one of them was delivered. The state of embarrassment experienced by all classes of society is not, as some discontented spirits would insinuate, confined to France. The scourge cif war has Wien on the conquerors as well as the conquered ; and the finances of the greatest States of Europe experience more or less the distress which a concourse of circumstances, almost unexampled in history, have produced. The reductions made by English families in the number of their domestics, the charitable associations to which they are obliged to recur to supply the necessities of the poor, the dis. turbances among the working classes in several pro iinces of that country, the precautions adopted by the Bank of Vienna, the loans made by different Government% ) are all facts which very clearly indicate that our misfortunes are, if that can be a motive of consolation, at least shared. But what an encourage ment to patience do we no, find in the paternal soli citude displayed by all Sovereigns in their endeavours to abridge the duration, mitigate the effects, and re move the cause of these evils ! The Princes placed near the throne participate in these noble sentiments of commiseration, an I withdraw from the expenses the maintenance of their rank requires, sums which, distributed with an enlightened beneficence, will con vey to the places that have most suffered succours to serve as pledges of their generous intentions and com passionate humanity. The Duke of Berri has ex toded to a greater distance the marks of his bounty, the happy appanage of his august family. The in.! digent of a country, to which he was in Iris turn in. debted for the honourable hospitality formerly given' by his grandfather, Louis XIV. to the Princes of the same nation, have received from him a mark of re-1 membrance which attests that his magnanimous heart knows no point of distance to which he cannot find occasion to convey a benefit. COURIER EITRAORDINARY OF TUESDAY IdORNIIIO6 In the environs of Paris the harvest has com. =need. The crops are very good. Four Tripolitan or Alger* privateers have been telegraphed on the shores of Provence. According to a new regulation, the theatres are not to represent dramas taken from Scripture, in future. The Prevotal Court of I)ouay has condemned to transportation, one Flamant, a beggar, convicted of crying, in the streets of Valenciennes, on the 9th of June, Vivelr Republique I CIVITA VECCHIA, AUGUST 4. The St. Anse, a Sardinian vessel, arriving from Sassari, Captain Andrea Delbone, has'brought intel ligence that a Tartan, from Gibraltar, has in its turn conveyed the information that the American :qua dron was cruising before Algiers, and had already demanded of the Dey satisfaction for the violation of the treaty—that the Dey had sent one of his nephews on board of the American Comniodore, and the lat ter had at first refused to receive him—that the Al geria. Deputy returned a second time, and was ad mitted, when he offered every satisfaction. The lat ter demanded that the Christians of all natioasasho wished to quit the Regency of Algiers, should be at liberty so to do : it should seem that this demand was not foreseen loy the Dey, who hoped to get off for an act of submission. The Americans then burnt five vessels in the Roads : it is generally suOposed also that they landed, and that the Dey in conse quence quitted Algiers. It appears that the Porte is not inclined to draw down the vengeance of Europe, and to lose Albania, Morea, and her European possessions, on account cl . . . . . the tern cies, wh i c h freilisintly &Se irtit discontent. Seventeen Christian prisoners tad ar rived at Sassari previodi to the appearance of the American squadrcirt. Tunis and Tripoli are in the greatest agitation ; • this is the case also - in all the -provinces of 'Barbary. Is the hour of vengeance then come NAPLES, AUGVST S. We ba*t in our Roads an American vessel, and two ships of war of the• same nation : on board the vessel is the Ambassador from the United States to Constantinople. The two ships of war will join the squadron before Algiers. PRIVATE LETTER. " PAIL'S, AUGUST 19. " The F dole Am; sir Rei has been suspended since Saturday law, for haviog contradicted the report of the Chamber not being assembled this year, and for the inset-lion of yet very militated facts on the late serious commot ions at Strasburg and Nancy. It la supposed the interdiction of this Royalist Journal will be dis continued to-morrow ; it has, however, lost its privilege of ap peasing in the evening. You may rely on the exactness of the following statement which I tiansmit you. In one of the public houses at Strasburg, some Of the lower class of the populace, and certain French and Austrian hussars were drinking together: a number of the soldiers of the legion of the Vosges were there also. An altercation arose between sore of the National Guars and the regular .f loops ; the homer were joined by the populace, and the treasonable cry of " Vive Fhmpereur r was proffered. The drum beat to arms, a skirmish ensued, and 13u persons were kUhd and wounded on the side of the rebels. " On the other part, a number of French hussars an.l other troops, under the orders of General Briton, were killed. Nume rous arrests have since taken place, and the town is said to be in a state of tranquillity. At Nancy, though no blood was spilt, the affair was of a more important nature. An Officer of Engi neers, formerly one of the Chiefs of the Military College at Met, and since employed in the War Department, organized a serinus conspiracy to cake possession of the town, and secure the persons of 'the Royal Authorities. A considerable number of Officiii on half pay and disaffected individuals co.operate , l in this plan. Twenty minutes before its explosion, it was announced to General Villate, who instamaneously had eleven of them semtd, and the nest morning twenty-six of their accomplices. Out of this list, ainetern are Et-officers." The following is an extract of a letter from an Of ficer in the British Army stationed at Samer, in in France, dated the 19th instant: " I do not think France will be long before she is embroiled in a fresh war; for she it calling out all her Militias, and offering bounties for volunteering into Regular Regiments: recruiting patties are also out, and a party of the Cuirassiers are now recruiting in this place. The people, in general, are very much discontented, and are divided into three parties, viz. the Land-owners, who adhere to Louts, the Blna partists, and the Revolutionists.—The inhaliitants *treat the English soldiers with great respect, but it is more out of fear than love. Every thing, except sugar, tea, and English cheese, is here very cheap-- the latter will fetch 2s. 6d. per pound. We are only eight miles from Boulogne; and the place is dread fully infested with brigands, who would, were they to find yt•.o unarmed, murder you for a frank. I am i sorry to inform you, elat en Friday night our Corrl- I was robbed and murdered between this place and Boulogne : but our sol,lie.-s give them a scouring wherever they can meet them ; and if they ;ie.tr the rattle of an English dragoon, they arc off in all instant." The PRINCE REGENT never suffered so severe an attack of illness, as that from which he is ri.)w hap. pily recovering. It was an inflammation of a most alarming kind, from which he was relieved by co pious bleeding. No fewer than thirty-six leeches were applied yesterday morning. His Royal Highness was so much better as to be able to take some veal broth—but he still remains at the Stud House. Toe Princess CHARLOTTE has an insuperable ob jection to Camelford House, which is Jul!, close, and inconvenient. But the Illustrious Couple have re solved, rather than add to the burthei's of the nation, to accept apartments in Kensington Palace. They are to have those formerly occupied by the Princess Of WALES, to which the Duke of KENT'S will bi annexed, during his Royal Highness's absence on the Continent. The Earl of NOIIMANTON is gone from Seymour' Place. to Richmond Park, Surrey. Letters from Bilboa mention, that British Cotton goodi are no longer admitted to entry in the ports of Biscay, in consequence of a most peremptory order received from Court ; the execution of whi:h in the above port was confided to General LoNoA. Several valuable seizures had been made. The only shadow of civil liberty which remained in Spain has at length been destroyed by the King--By Letters just received from Spain, we are informed, that an Order was lately sent down from Court for Promulgation in Navarre, and being laid before the Deputies for their sanction, agreeably to immemorial custom, was refused their sanction. In conseqUence of this, the Viceroy (Eseaust.eTa) arrested the whole of them in their beds, and sent them to prison. The Kingdom of Navarre is that portion of the Spanish Monarchy which had retained its ancient rights and privileges in the more perfect state, the,.eneroachments of the Croats and its Ministers, having been felt there less than in any other quarter. A permanent body of Deputies from time immemorial has existed, to whom the guardianship of these rights and privileges was confided, and who have always been known to watch over them with a jealous 'case. Notaithstand. ing the general despotisns of the Throne, these ancient charters have been held sacred, and no law or royal order has been promulgated in Navarre, without hav ing been previously submitted to this Deputation, to receive its sanction. This body had the right to de clare whether any measure emanating from the King was opposed to the Constitution of the province, and there the King also governed through the medium of a Viceroy, the only one known in the whole Peninsula. —By this arbitrary act of FERDINAND—an act with out parallel since the time of PHILIP 11. the constitu ' tion of Navarre, which had survived the destruction of that of Asragon, and which was the only partial remnant of that political liberty which.distiligusshed the catty annals of Spanish history, 4tas been swept ,away.—Spain !

BURN WEBSTER, Lieu te nan -Co'o nd Co xf ,of the Life Guards, with forty-five other passengers, sand by the Eliza packet for Dieppe. A great number go ores' to France, yet the Captains cothplain of their homeward freights. To bring back ten or twelve is considered a good cargo. The packets sailing to Dieppe from this place pay into the French Customs up.,ards of £l7O per week for tonnage duties. It is stated that the Cartliagenian privateers are numerous in the passage and along themetof Caka not less than nine of these, it is said, have successively anchored off Henegue, within a few days past, whersi they got in supplies of wo )d and water, ant in sc,rne instances poultry, &c. which last they paid tor: By a Gentleman who lately crnssed the Istismas Of Panama, we understand that Commodore Br.•.:eiNs of the Buenos Ayres squadron, has been etcharged, stn .I this information is confirmed by the Cadiz letters of yesterday. Tlie . particulars are said to be as follow :—. Commodore BROWN% second in command, son a flag of truce to Guayaquil. offering to effect :in i•xi hauge by givicg up the new Governor, all the Spanish pris , nets, and four of the prizes the squadron had c apturei's The old Governor returned - for answer, that the sur render must be of all the ships, v;hen he would fit nish them with the means of returning to Buenos Ayres, and in addition give them 100,0(X) The other sent back word, that he would . bring his answer himself; and accordingly, as soon as the high. tides served he ascended the river with his ships posted himself before the city of Guyaquil, and opened his batteries. It seems the Governor soon consented to the exchange of Commodore Bttowri, who resort ei the command of a squadron tin:: has done more injal to the Spaniards in the South Seas, than they have ex pericnceri since the time of ANSON. The Cadiz mer chants are much enraged at the manner in w hich the dignity and pride of the nation has been thus h umbled.
