>~ dor FRENCH PAPERS. DECEII4IPUt SI. Yesterday the Officers of the Natival Guard of Paris were admitted to present. their respects to his Majesty. The King received them, after Mass, in the Hall of the Tittone, having on his right the Duke of Berri, and surrounded by his'Great Officers ot-State. Monsieur entered, followed, by the Marshal Duke of Reggio, the Duke de Mortemiart, and the Officers of the General Staff, who formed a circle in front of his Majesty. Monsieur having taken his place in the centre; spoke as follows : 6 , Stag—The National Guard of your good City of Paris comes to reit:Ay at your Majesty's feet the expression of its profound tespeet, its unalterable fidelity, its boundless devotedness to the best beloved of Kings, and of the ardete prayers it addresses to Mace"; for the glory, the prosperity of your reign, so necessary to the welfare of the French." The King replied : " I receive with the most lively satisfaction the assurance of t'ae sentiments of the National Guard. Was Iso unfortunate as to thr.tbt of it fur a moment, t should only hays to recollect the • day of my departure, and that of my return." The King afterwards personally addressed the dif . ferent Chiefs of Legion. Yesterday numerous corps of the Royal Guard, • both horse and foot, entered the capital, and took possession of the quarters assigned to them. Yesterday there was distributed among the Mem bers of the Chamber of Deputies, a reclamation of the Soveieign Order of St. John of Jerusalem, in which that order prays restitution of that portion of its property in France which has not yet been sold, and that the revenues its woods in particular, be withdrawn from the budget of 1816. They observe in their reclamation, that it is peculiarly important to the Noblesse of France, deprived of feudal rights, l that the Order of Malta resume its ancient splendour. It appears from letters from Vienna, that the Arch-' Duchess Maria Louisa will go to Italy with her sis ters, and will be accompanied by her father in her en trance into Parma, where she will reside some time. The son of the Arch-Duchess will remain at Schoen br unn. The same authority states, that Baron. de Vincent h to be Ambassador to Russia, and Prince Metter nich at Paris. The Emperor of Austria has gained - much popu larity at Venice, by appealing at a masked ball in the character of a noble Venetian. In the night of the 2fiti instant the Police of Stras burgh arrested several individuals for uttering sedi tious cries in the streets of that city. The Officer lately arrested at 6trasburgh is named Baudinot, Ex-Colonel of the 12th regiment of in fantry. He had at an inn loudly blamed one of the acts of Government. He has already undergone an examination. The King of Naples has granted a pardon to 91, individuals who landed with Murat, in which num. ,her there were only three Frenchmen. Almost all the remainder were Corsicans. They are to be sent back to their own country, under" the severest penal ties it they r: turn. They write from Bt sancon th.t some revolutionary persons of the mountain;, ia the depattment of Doubs, have taken to flight, and other:: have been at rested and conducted to Pon tarlier, to be placed under the inspection of the Police. The second division of the English army, about .5000 men strong, quitted Versailles on the 2Stla, to pmceed towards Camtgai and Valenciennes. Letters from Albi of the 12th state, that the ru mour of pretending assemblages of persons in the Cr, venues is absolutely devoid of foundation. • A Special Commission of seven Members, noini rated by the Chamber of Peers, is appointed to exa mine all the questions relative to the formation of that Chamber into a Court of Justice. The Marquis cis Talara, and the Counts Gamier, Abrial, Mote, . Vastoret, Lally Tolendal, and Malleville, are lalcm-1 hers of this Commission. Yesterday, at one, the Mice of Nut; arrived at the Champ-de-Mars, when his Royal highness passed in review several corps at the Guards. This Prince re turned to the Thuillerics at half-past three o'clock, at the head of a very fine regiment of Horse Chatseurs of the itiayal Guard. General Debelle has undergone several examina tions before the President of the second Council of War. He is, it is said, to be tried early in January. CHAMBER.

' This city is fined with terror set the blow the King has just given, a blow that cannot be paralleled in the annals of despotism. In consequence of the orders issued by the King to terminate, within a fined period, the - trials of the Lihra' les, and to refer to him the sentences pronounced by the Special Court, the latter, notwithstanding it was composed of persons possessed of the King's entire confidence, which is proved by their composing the ha tribunal that has hitherto taken cognizance of these causes, availing themselves of the opportunity of consulting the King, respecting the sentence that was to be imp-sed on Don Manuel Garcia Herrero:, late Minister of Grace and Justice, and Deputy in the late GenerAl and Ex traordinary Corte, manifested to his Majesty in like wanner, as had been done two several times by the preceding Judges, that nothing resulted against the persons accused in raid cases, that in the tri.'ls there appeared nothing but unqualified charges and secret accusations without foundation; and therefore, that it would accord with the benignity of his Majesty to draw a veil over the past, and set the accused at liberty. Little satisfied with this consultative report, the Kidg issued the following order : ea PALACI. Nov. 25, 181 6. - _ " Considering the state In which the trials nand, and the Spe cial Court being now reduced under the same l'residtnicy of the Captain-General, to the three Aicaldes, Solt:ado, Valuta, and Valdenebro; and in cave any difference of opinion in- iiicktiays should result In the above, the si:d powers are to devolve on Soler and Garcia de la Toni, it it my will, that before the causes which have been tried are resolved upon, those shall be 'hewn to me with the greaten brevity, which are not comprehended In the laws of Tit. 1, I.ib. i, of the New Kecopilacion, and in Tit. 7, and 111; and also the persons whom tife culprits alltalge to have held the same political opinions, mil the s'amurnans and grounds en which they found theinulves in both ease,." [ The laws In question relate to the disloyal, mums, meet:hip, and tumults.] On receiving this inquiry. the Tribunal answered, that they had arrested no one comp.:hei-led in the said laws, nor any one guilty of high trcison. The King, in a rage with this answer, awl finding that no Judge; however wicked, would accord with his views in condemning innocent persons as ctiniinals, took the charge upon himself, and caused - the Re corders of the said causes, Kith the greatl: 4 secrecy, and under pain of death, to bring to torn all the trials, which they consequently did. He (the Mop) order td all tie coaches to be embargoed, and by himself, and alone, he pronounced the followitz sentences ; commanding that in the same night the i et - sons sen tenced should proceed onto their destinations, in the coaches embargoed for that purpose, all winch WAS done.

The fourteenth Congress convened on Monday, and from the arrival of Members in Washington prior to that day, there probably were quorums of both branches present.

Five schtemers have been wreel:ed on their passage from Bonaventure to Magdalen Point, on the River 'St. Lawrence, and upwards of thirty persons pe rished. WASHINGTON, NOVEMLTR A report has been in circulation lor a day or two, on the Authority of an arrival at S ivannali, of the sinking of the sloop of war Epervier, by a British ship of the line. So little credit have we attached to it, that we did not think it necessary even to no tice this report. It is certainly untrue as stated, and probably a hoax from beginning to end. The me lancholy proli.thility and Almost cert kty is, that the Epetvier was lost at sea in the violent September gales. ANOTHER CRREK. WAR. • NASHVILLE, OC'EO!lL• at. The public faith of the restless Creek Indians again compels the relinquishment of ease and comfort for the hardship and privations.of tl:e tented tiehl. The annexed executive order will be read with mixed emotions of indignation and regret by every Ten; nesean. In.lignation at the treachery of the lue, and regret that his peitidy . requires ch istisement at 111; 1 hands. These appeals to be a pc: vet seness in that tribe that must sooner tr later terminate in the total extinguishment of it; and as the recent. Cletnoicy of our troops seems to have been misunderstood, it is Probable such measures will be taken, as w►ll remove all cause fur future drafts of the militia for the pur pose of preset vim; peace on thatfroutier. MONTREAL, NoV. Yd. (FILOt!I THE QUESLC PAPERS.) The Members of the American Government, or those who mite directly ifi its support, affirm, that the ethoie National Debt of the Union is only 11%4000,00° dollars, or £24,750,0W sterling. That the revenue arisii,g from the imports of 1614 will amount to 4.0,000,0tX) dollars, and that the internal tales will neatly defray the expenses of Government. They thezefore estimate that in kss than four years, if tne war taxes are contiaued, they will produce the wonderful phenomenon in modcrit times of plying oft the National Dart of the U::ited States. Before we can place implicit confidence in the reality or this dazzling picture, we must first see the exhibition et Mr. Dallas's accounts after the Congress meets: these will furnish data by which tar estimates can be made. The idea of the revenue continuing the same in future years, At in the present, is out of the question. In the early months of last summer, English goods sold by the cargo at £19.) sterling at New York. which cost in Leeds and .Malichester only AIUO. thereby ) fielding a net profit of 1:54) per cent. or more. The *ape goods, if now forced into the market to be sold for American rags (Bank Paper), will not fetch JEW for the £lOO they cost in Brisson. This is cer. ;airily a noble prospect for the American treasury, for the Manchester weavers, and for ihe republican speculators of Liverpool. Yes, not only will Mr. Dale is be disappointed, but most of the British game sters, who play deeply in Amelican speculations.— In fifteen to eighteen months from this, they will probably feel the effects of bankruptcy, in a greater degree than WAS produced lay the Decrees of Berlin and Klan, Jeflersou'. Embargo, and Madison's Noo-Importation Act, all put together. Now that the din of war has given way to the blessings cf . peace, the Americans are busily employ ,ed in re-establishing their exhausted credit, and in opening the way for great national improvements.— The depreciation of Bank paper has created much inquietude over the community, particularly in New k, and to the Southward, . svhei e the paper of Banks of the best credit is inferior to specie, from 16 to 22 per cent. At New York the bills of merchants on London sell at 11 per cent. premium for the best Bank paper of that City, and British Government Bills at 12 per cent. but we underAand a large sum of British Government Bills have lately been sold at par for specie. This is some proof that Bank paper is rather regaining confidence, or that the Broker gets a handsome commission for transacting the busi. ness, and to cover the risk of fluctuation. Certain!' the banking system is carried to such an unwarran. table pitch as to create alarm in the United States, and to make us watchful of its consequences in thi' country. So long as paper rests so much under the value of specie, it will be impossible to keep much of the latter in circulation in Canada, however advan ta4eously we may bargain to bring it in. the country will soon be inundated with American manufactures, which will be realised at almost any sacrifices for gold and silver to be carried to the States, in spite of the law to prevent the exportation of specie. When we speck of goods, we allude net to the beef, pork, bitter, cheese, and fresh provisions which the American farmers bring in :' these come oot in competition tilith British industry * and ought to be encouraged, boOastse they operate in favour of an increased exportatioitto the sister colonies : what• ever we pay the farmer must be paid in specie, apt •by prudent purchases it cannot be laid out to better advantage! publ . .-- t h e publ ---- THE EVENING ST e-L l P e ri - • actor LO N DOM y, and fo t... g prow --.,..._ su bject w , THURSDAY, JANUARY 4 ti e MICE OF STOCKti THIS DAY AC 1 WEIN E oy; 1 .1"Iiilg UP Reduced rercen 6 t t . q 7 l l — ii Czn ee . mu. u 6e s a h t u . t ob — u f t or_ L a pg. d G s o t t u. 3 : 1. 4 • 2 o rs: 0 1 1 11 i Own. 15 pr.-1)u. pay. 15i pr.—l - Ada. aids par, 3 1 ,;',. 1 - 11, io perfort P ed ß in E g Sl c D oi E lin N l :l l "S we t i l i E av S e e g A iv o en t .els:o sloe, they from A merican Papers, received last night ; al ,.
