We have received the Paris Papers of FridAy. If p i are to believe their statements the insurrection at Grenoble has been completely got under. The pri. s ate letters, however, speak differently. Among the trials before the Courts of Justice at Paris, there is one which excites particular interest, a s being connected with the private history of Botte. I'i, ST& On the nib of the 214 of June, MS, throtsgh his brother JOSEPH, be sent for a broker, and by his means got possession of £29,000 sterling of the public money of France, for which he received drafts on a house in London, and which drafts were paid while BONAPARTI was on board the Btu.LEuo• PliON. The cause will be decided next week : the object seems to be, to make the French Broker refund the money. COURIER EXTRAORDINARY OF FRIDAY MORNING. Yesterday after the Council of Ministers, an Ex traordinary Courier was sent off with dispatches for OeneralDunnadieu at Grenoble. It was the - Legion of Herault and a company of the Dragoons of the Seine which formed part of the troops who charged the rebels. The letters of the 6th announce that they were occupied in trying in a military manner all those who were taken with arms is their hands. The people of the suburbs took no part in the revolt, anal the whole population were seized with horror on hearing of the attempt of a bidalful of traitors. PARIS, MAY 10. By letters from Grenoble, dated the 6th, it appears that tranquillity is' perfectly restored, and it is added that the numbers of the rebels have been over-rated. On the faith of several other journals, we had an nounced that Eberle, the jailer, bad appealed against his sentence in the affair of Lavaleue. This is not thecase : he is satisfied of the justice of his sentence. —(jearnal der Debats). They write as follows from Rome of the 20th ult.: • The Chevalier Goopy, who arrived here in the nuke of the Austrian Cabinet with propositions to the Queen of Etruria, relative to the acceptation of Lucques, for wkich she is to exchange the Duchy of Parma, has set off tor Paris, withuut having accom plished the object of his mission. ,‘ It is also reported that the Council of Castille has declared that the Queen of Etruria will not accede to any exchange chat is net advantageous to her son, and the King of Spain will not renounce his right to the Duchies of Parma and Placentia for a minor interest. It is also said that the King of Spain has refused an audience at Madrid to the Austrian Ambassador, Prince Kaunitz, on accuudt of these dOrmers:" Dispatches from Grenoble, dated on the 6th, con "um the intelligence that the insurrectionary move ments have been entirely allayed. A circumstance tery remarkable connected with this event is, that nos one of the soldiers of the Legion of theism faded in hii ditty, although the rebels were their ' mentrymen. According to new details the numbers tithe seditious were less than.We had at first stated. The disaffected also tircudated a report that Thou louse was in a state of insurreC:ion, but nothing is mate completely false. Letiels received from Thou 'louse to-day, completely refute their assertions: ROME, APRIi. 24. After a year's imprisonment... Cardinal Maury has obtained permission to reside at Rome, on a pension of 4000 Roman crowns. Ha was sect , sed of tip canonical crime of holding two Bishoprics at once, and of having accepted that of Paris in particular, expressly against the injunction of the Pope. The Cardinal is not to officiate in public any more. A Dutch Mail arrived this morning. From the Papers wbich we have received by it, we have made the following selections : BRUSSELS, MAY 6. s s For some days past numerous detachments of Scotch and English lnfanuy have been landed at Calais, and also some squadrons of cavalry which proceed successively to join the corps which they are intended to reinforce, in order to keep up the contin gent complete. More troops are expected, and the, Ships which bring them are to carry back to England the three regiments of 'Cavalry. According to the orders of the Duke, the contin gent must be constantly kept upon the war establish- Inent. The soldiers who, through indisposition or :otherwise, are less tit fur service, are daily replaced. the reports that have been circulated concerning. die diminution of the British Army, are wholly destitute of foundation, as well as a similar rsport of the daparture of 30,000 Austriaus, . . • are coming to reinforce tit* troops of their nation in 1 France, which repor i t has bias '6:totaled in 'the' French Departments. Letters from Lillouy, that the French Govern ment fulfils with great exactness the articles of the Treaty, respecting the payment of the necessary sums' to.the Allied troops. The inhabitants of , the Com. manes, who have to lodge the soldiers, receive a re. galas indemnity. These measures have the happy effect, that wherever the Allied troops are cantoned good order prevails, and the foreign .military live in as good understanding with the inhabitants of the cluntry, as can possibly subsist between Russians, Gamins, English, and French. • BRUSSELS, MAY e. Letters from the several Head-quarters of the Al lied troops, affirm, that the greatestprt of the Aus trian, PrusbiAn, and Bavarian troops', now in France, will be relieved by other of the same nations. The motive of this measure is unknown, but it has given occasion to various ridiculous reports, such as the departure of the Russian and Austrian corps, which are continually spread abroad by the enemies of the Bourbons, to keep people's minds in agitation. Some French papers have spoken also of the depar ture of the Danish Contingent, which is as unfounded as the rest. Letters from Lille say, that the inhabitants flatter themselves that the Duke of Berri will visit that city soon after his marriage, iti order to give them a proof of his satisfaction and gratitude. The Council of' War at Lille, has lately condemned to various pu nishments, many military of inferior *rank, tor sedi tious cries. Ina short time the Officers will be put on their trial who are in prison on the same account. The Council of this city have resolved to place the Hotel of Ole Chancery, in this city, at the disposal of his Royal Highness the Prince of Orange, and at the same time •oted the necessary sum of money to put the Hotel in proper order. His Royal Highness will inhabit this Hotel while he is here, till the Palace is finished which the States. General have ordered to be built for him. Preparations are also making to build the bunting•seat at Terveuren, and to improve and beautify the park. HAGUE, MAY 10. In the sitting of the second Chamber a message from his Majesty was read, dated the Bth, stating in substance, that '• when his Majesty assumed the So vereignty of the United Netherlands, his Majesty's youngest son, Prince Frederick, was intended to have the Sovereignty of his Nassau Dominions ; that his Majesty, at the time of the Congress, ceded these dominions and obtained the Grand Duchy of Luz ereberg instead, with which his Majesty intended to indemnify the said Prince; that reasons of State and, , the general interest required that all the Netherland provinces should be united nada, mu, S o ye r a gi ar t that therefore his Royal Highness Prince Frederick was juitly entitled to anotLer indemnity ; and his Majesty sent with the present message the project of a law, tending to give to Prince Frederick certain domains in the neighbourhood of }Veda, producing l an annual revenue of 190,000 florins."—Sent to the Sections for examination.—Adjourned till Tuesday. Our Readers will see by the Gazette that the Prince of Saza•Coanono is to take rank next to the Royal Blood, above the Archbishop of CANTERBURY, the Loan Cuancem.on, and all the Peers. Yesterday, while the. Prince'of Cosnuao attended the Levee at Carlton House, Princess CHARLOTTE of COSOOIIO visited her Maitsrx and the PaiNcEssal, at the Queen's Palace. On her Royal Highness's return to Cametiord House, his Serene Highness was in waiting to receive her, and had the curricle in rea diness, when they took an airing round Hyde Park, and returned to Camelford House to dinner. It is not expected that his Serene Highness the Prince of COBOURG, or Princess CHARLOTTE, will re tarn to Oatlands. A long list of Rank and Fashion again visited Camelford House on Monday, to pay their respects to the Princess CHARLOTTE and Prince Conouaa. The French Papers, reeeived.to•day, announce the arrival at Bourdeaux, of Mr. and Mrs. CANNING. Mr. CANNING is said to be on his way to London, but his Lady remains in France. The Duke of WELLINGTON ii expected at Paris on the 206 instant; to be present slt the marriage of the Duke and Ducheis of BARRI. The once celebrated Birou GRRAIIII has become a Monk of LA Trappe; at Laval, in France The Surgeons of Paris, in an address to Louts XVIII. say, that their society was' incorporated so lung back as the year 1255. There is to be a grand Comma' Scottish Poet, BORNS, at Ifeefl i liSdNe Tavern, On Saturday, the 25th. The Earl of ANENDEEN sides; Lord MeLvita.z, and a numerous list of Noble men and Gentlemen honour this national meeting as Stewards ; and it is full anticipated that it will be one of the most brilliant assemblages ever witnetsed on any similar occasion-6a tribute alike worthy of the immortal Bard, of hit country, and of those who can have the pleasure of partaking in its delights.

THE 4RMT. GENERAL (.RDERS. " !Tome Guard', May le, MG, . _ So long sa Major-General Sir Robert Wl'bon ar..t Czytain I. H. HutaMason, of the Ist or Grenadier Regimeat of Foot °Verdi, were under trial, the Commander-in-Chief abstained from making any observations on their conduct. " The proceedings having now tertninated, the Commander- In Chief bas received the Prince Regent'i commands to declare Ista Royal Highness's sentiments on the transactions which have led to the trial and conviction of those Officers. " In the instance of Msjor-General sir Robert Wilson, the Prince Regent thinks it necessary to express his high displeasure, that an Officer of his Ofanding in his Majesty's service, bolding the commission and receiving the pay ef a Major-General. thuuld 114111164.4.404alegainiCia Wl whet- web otos to Ida prois•ssum. ae weal as to the Government under whose protection he had VD. fun anly placed himself, as to base sugaged in a measure the de clared object of which was to cousteract the laws and defeat the public justice of that smutty. Nor dots his Royal Highness con skier the means by which this measure was accomplished as less reprehensible titan the set i aelf : for his RayaliHighness ranuot admit that any Circumstance could justify a British Officer in having obtained, under falsp pretences, passports in feigned, names from the repiisentat.ie of hi. own Sovereign, and in having made use of such passports for himself and a subject of his most Christian Majesty, under sentence of high treason, dis guised hi a British uniform, out only to elude the vigilance of the French Government, but t s tarry Win in such di-guise through the British lines. While the Wince Regent carino• but consider it at a material aggravation of Sir R. Wilton'. Offence; that holding so high a rank in the army, he should have cOunte sauteed and encouraged an inferior officer to contend a decided and serious breach of military duty, his Royal Highntss newel thrice' thinks it equally necessary to etpress his high dispfeasuie at the conduct of Captain 1. H. Hutchinson; for having been himself an active instrument in a transaction uf so culpable a nature, more especially in a country in amity with his Majesty, where the Re- Shneat which he was serving in the course of his military ty, formed part of an array which had been pLieed by the Allied Sovoretgns under the command of the Duke of Wellington, 'under circumstances which made It peculiarly incumbent upon every Officer of that Army to abstain from any conduct which ought obstruct the execution of the laws. " His Royal Highness the Priuee Regent being • unwilling to visit these Officers with the lull weight oY his diapleasure, which the completion of their offence might hive warranted, and also taking into emasidefatian the degree of punishment to which tlicy have subjected thetnelves. by violating the laws of the country to which this transaction took place, has signified td tbe Com mander in Chief these his sentiments, that they ahoula be pub lisherligo the Army at large, in order to record in the most public manner the strong sense which his Royal Highness entertains of the flagrant misconduct of these Officers, and of the danger which world accrue to the repotaitto and discipline of the British, Army, if such an offence were to pass without a decided expression of his Royal Highness's most severe reprehension. • By Order of his Royal Highness.

UN VIE IUPORTATION OF FOREIGN ctORN.—AS many doubts have arisen as to the time and m :a rm of ascertaining the average by which the inn- portation of foreign corn for home consumption is permitted, it may be matter of information to sate that, agreeably with tl.e 3lst of the present KciF, the rule for regulatmg the importation into the city of London and the counties of Esser. Kent, and Sus sex, is from the weekly returns made to the Inspector of Corn Returns at Mark-lane, who; Within sect-it days after the 15th of February, 15th of May, I 7 .:h of August, and 15th of riecernb.r, respectively, i s a., make up and compute upon the siz last weekly ri:. turns by h m received, the average quantities prices of British corn, &c. (e.stept nat;;, which arc t•s be computed from toe last twelve weekly returns). and to transmit the same to the Receiver of Co. a Returns, who shall transmit a certificate thereof to • ..11ectere of the C ustoms in London and the eorcs 4 Essex, Kent; and Sussex, as the rule by which v, • importation shall be governed, until new met; prices shall in like manner be made and recciv..l. Froni which it appears, that unless the average s,r the last six weeks shall be at or above eighty per quarter (the price at which it was fixed by ope Act passed last Session) no importation cin be p -r. ,rnitted, for home consumption, till after the ISt c. August, should the average then amount. as :rr:: ,stated. But, by the Act passed rase Session, w.e - ever the average price of wheat, computed as ahoy.: stated, shall be at or Jove 675. per quarter, Cots. !weal, or flour, the produce ot . the British CsilotiLs =u ;North America, may be imported free of any diety.
