BITTINLI 0F THE 22D NOVF.MBIR. The following Meisage from his Majesty eras read : 4 . High and Mighty Lords—The eemme of the Mediterranean and the Levant stands in need of being protected by particular dispositions, combined ac cerdime to the state of the countries in which it is carri•A on. To meet the expenses which result from It, special duties have therefore been at all times .hviei in the northern provinces ' th e receipt and ma nagement of • which belonged to Boards established in • -•the priccipal ports, under the name Of Chambers of • Abe Co.eineree of the Levant. " The nroment in which a general system of im port and export duties is going to be introduced, also that in which this subject ought to draw our at.' tention Ir is the more urgent to regulate it, es the • re-establishment of security in the Mediterranean is a dge that all the commercial cities in the kingdom will soon direct their enterprises and hieriantile spe culations to that quArter. As soon as they shall have obtained ele degree of activity which we are allowed .to expect, experience will slew how these duties will be the best fixed and levied. Under present circum stances, and after the long interruption of our rela tions will) the Levant, it appears prudent not to depart essentially from. the Tariff which leas long been known in the northern pores. and which was never considered then as onerous to commerce. " The examination of .the mode to be adopted in regard to the administration has produced a different result, and made it necessary to establish Chambers of the Commerce of the Levant in the Ports which are now destitute of them, or to suppress those which already exist : we have given the preference to the last, as the more simple and analogous to what is done in other branches of the public service. " The legislative regulations requisite for this pur pose are contained in the annexed project of a law. (Signed) " WILLIAM. " Brussels, Nov. SU " To this message is annexed a project of a law tend- 1 ing to rive particular protecncm to the navigation of the Mediterranean, and the commerce of the Levant.-' The Message and the Project were refereed to the Sections for examination. His Majesty has just sanctioned the measures pro posed by the War Department for, prosecuting the fortifications which are begun on several points of our frontiers with' such activity that from 1 0 to 12,000 workmen may be employed in them during the win ter seam, besides those wh- ate alreahly engaged by . the Contactors. The Engineer Officers who have the d rection of these works will concert mea sures with the Magistrates of the Towns and Com inunes, that the preference be given to fathers of fa milies, whose good characters and necessities tender more especially worthy of relief. By a Decree of his Majesty of the 11th of this month, theline of Custom-houses between the Nor thern and Southern provinces of the kingdom Will at length cease to exist.on tl.e Ist of December: Another Decree, dated the 12.11, prohibits the transit of rags, or paper with foreign arms (stamps), of tee, cloves, sutmegs, and cinnamon. The English brig the Rose,Captain Carden ' sailed on the 22.1 from Antwerp for Lnndon, with 1226 hectolitres and four sacks of wheat, and S 4 lasts and five sacks of oats.

There was no meeting of the Deputies on Tuesday, bat in the Chamber of Peers the project of a Law for the better suipoit of the Ecclesiastial Establishments, of France (attd of which ivelsave already given the . heAds) .. Was adopted. Of 146 who were present, 195 voted it* support. The Committee had pre. .viously made a slight amendment: instead of the words 66 Ecclesiastical Establishments, legally asp therired," the words, 66 reeognised by de ging" .were 114okt:tied. This preserves to his MAJISITY all .the sapreroacy of the Gsllican Church, which the Papal Jurisdiction admits of. • • An affecting story is told in these Journals of the ,sofferiligs of a poor Frenchman, who was 94 years a slave to the Algerines—he was harnessed like a quad. roped to a cart all day, and slept all night nearly in the open air, with accommodation not superior to chit afforded 'to ' the beasts of the field ! 'How gloyious was the . victory of Lord EX.NIOVTII, when it put an end to this torrent of human misery ! And yet, within this little month, these very French Journalists were sneering at the achievement, and vilifying the gallant hearts who planned and executed it. ,Let them now make the awes& honorable, and ' • humbly express their thankfulness, to Great Britain for another deliverance of their enslaved countrymen. —lt was our prowess which freed them from the scorching usurpation of &Lamm, giving them 46 Ships, colonies, and commerce." once ,more.

The Chamber opened at two o'clock. The order of the day called for the report of the Special Com mission charged to examine the project of the law re lative to donations in favour of Ecclesiastical estab lishments. The Report was made by the AIME MONTSSQUIEU, author of a Report in the Sessioa of 1815, by which the resolution of the present project originated. He proposed, in the name of the Com mission, the adoption ofthe project, except an ansead- ' meat consented to by the Minister, which substitutes the words oftly by law" is place of the words a legally authorised." The Chamber odopted the conclusion of the Report after a short discussion, and it was ordered to be printed. Two propositions Were then submitted to the Chun• ber, the first tending to decide, that in future no written discourse should be heard by the Chamber, except the reports of Commission and the propositions therein made. The object of the 2d wits to cause to be ordained, that in future the names of Peers who make their protest in the discussion, shall be written in the proces-verbal, and may be inserted in the Jour nals which give the account of the Sittings of the Chamber. . 'lle Chamber, after a short consultation, deter mined upon the consideration of these propositions. The Report of the Committee of Petitions was then read to the Chamber ; out of seven of them six were , dismissed as unconstitutional and foreign to the Re solutions of the Chamber. One single Petition rela tive to the renewal of the Tribunal of Commerce of Falaise wu referred to the Minister of Justice of the Interior. The Chimber adjourned till Saturday next. PARIS.

An individual delivered from. the slavery of tbe• Algerines, in virtue of a treaty made with Lord Ex. mouth, passed 'through Dijon on the 19th of this month, on - his way; to Paris. Irbil' person had fol- ' I lowed, at the age of fifteen-, as a jockey, his Royal Highness the Coast d'Artois to thysiege of Gibral tar. Being on board a vessel which was carrying dispatches to the Count d'Estaing, it was wrecked an the shores of Africa, when this person was seized by .tbe Arabs, and sold to a Prince of the emmtry. —.-Dating 34 years of slavery, passed in the moue. ,tiins, he was almost constantly harnessed to a cart, selfering the most dreadful hardships during the day,4 and huddled up in tents at 'night with hundreds of his companions in misfortune. -It is also remarkable in the history of this man, who is now 49, that he was deprived of ail COMllllllialtioll whatever with the rest of the world, and the intelligence of the French Revolntion never reached his ears until his landing at Naples. We may judge what will be his astonishment when he reads the *history of the last 34 years.

The Courier from Milan has perished between Linden and Fussach, with five other persons who accompanied him. 'The village of Fontenas, Canton of St N pall, has been reduced to ashes on the 7th of this month, at eight in the evening. In a few hours the flames, driven by a strong north wind, have completely de stroyed this unfortunate village. Forty houses, all the corn in the barns, several cattle, and a quantity of -provisions have become the prey of this terrible fire. More than eighty persons, io the midst Of the general calamity which afflicts this Canton,' are now thrown destitute, without * an asylum, having lest every thing they were possessed of. Government has sent 80 Louis.d'ors for their assistance, and the humanity of the rich has also eonuiLuted thereto. • On Sunday last, in opening one of the poors-boxes ,at a church in Geneva, five double Louis, and four pieces.of 20 fr. each, were found, for the succour-of the unfortunate, who, frostlike failure of the vintage, are left without resource and without bread. At Lausanne, the vhurch for the English who are in that town, contributes every Sunday abundant supplies for the destitute and starving. The Burgo Master of Zurich (which is now the Diractotial. Canton), bus addressed to the other Cantons the Pope's Brief, which has been, presented by the new Nuncio.
