At all times I pleased in his society, and I nattat praise hint for his polite. The Cape presents a picture of desolation. This tows, t one time contained seventy thouand inhabitants, was , built in the centre of a plain. All the streets were et right angles, and the houses were of the most elegant :ou•truction. Now the grass covers the streets, and the plait ' houses offer nothing but their empty wails. Add to this a,t a sky constantly serene, vegetation the most vigorous animated, and the son most brilliant. I may, however, ex from this picture some houses occupied by English and '•:an merchants, as also the small number iahabited by the . No►ility. I have not yet seen Christophe; but be is so at the Cape. that I might reside here three iambs with finding a single opportunity.". AIX-LA-CHAPELLE, OCTOBER 4. -.-- PRIVATE LETTER. " There has been no conference to-day, on account l of the indisposition of the Russian Minister, Count r Capo d'lstria. This being the fete-day Of the Em peror of Austria, it was expected that he would go to the Cathedral Church in great state, and that be would afterwards hold a Court, at which all the Fo reign Ministers and the suites of the different Sove reigns would be presented ; but this expectation was disappointed in both cases by the indisposition of his Imperial Majesty. Some of the Foreign Ministers called at his hotel, but were informed that the Em peror could not see them. The Emperor of Russia proceeded there likewise at half-past one, and after having alighted and conversed for a minute or two with a Chamberlain, returned without seeing his Ma jesty. The Emperor of Russia was dressed in an Austrian uniform, out of compliment to his Austrian Majesty on his name-day. ills Imperial Majesty heard Mass in a small chapel fitted up in his hotel. The King of Prussia attended Divine Service at the /Votestant Church in the morning, at eight o'clock, altng with the troops in garrison here. His Majesty was accompanied by the Princess of Tour and Taxis, his sister-in-law. Her daughter, who is a Catholic, after the religion of her father, attended Divine Ser vice in the Cathedral. The Duke of Kent arrived here last night, and was this morning visited by the Emperor Alexander. His Royal Highness being lodged at the Redoubt, in the most frequented part of the city, a great crowd collected about Alexander when he alighted, and shouted nee rErTereur! the words to which they were trained in the time of Bo naparte. A little before two o'clock, Lord Castle reagh waited upon his Royal Uighness, and offered him the use of his carriage to the hotel of the King of Prussia, where a grand dinner was given to the Emperor Alexander and all the Allied Ministers. The party began to arrive about half-past one, and the dinner was over before four. The Emperor of Austria was absent, from the same indisposition which prevented him from receiving company in the morn ing. Besides the Emperor of Russia we observed the arrival of the Duke of Kent, the Duke of Wel lington, Lord Castlereagh. the Duke of Richelieu, Prince Metternich, Prince Hardenberg, Prince Wit genstein, and several other great political and mili tary characters. A great ball is given by the City to-night, in honour of the Allied Sovereigns, and the fete of the Emperor of Austria. " Madame Reichard, whose ascent in a balloon was advertised for this morning, has been prevented from making the experiment by the badness of the weather. Prince Augustus, of Prussia, left this place some time ago, and Madame Recamier three days afterwards. The sister of the Emperor of Russia, the Princess of Orange, is expected at the country house of the Emperor to spend there some days. Among the number of strangers whom the Congress has attracted to Aix-la-Chapelle, we observe the cele brated Mr. Owen, of New Lanark, who has just come from Frankfort on the Maine. He repaired to that city to present a memorial to the Diet, offering to produce a plan, by which riclifs may be created in such abundance, that the wants and desires of every human being may be over satisfied, and by which the rising generation, without force or punishment of any kind, may be trained by circumstances so as to exclude any defect, except what may arise frbm the inexpe rience of the parties who execute its details, or be owing to qualities uncontroulablc by human means.' " " This, it will easily be seen • is the general result which he draws from his plan Of the villages of mu tual co-operation that made such a noise fast year in the London Papers. This Memorial he is come here to present to the Allied Sovereigns and Ministers. It is printed in three different languages—in English, for Lard Castlereagh, and in French and German. for the other great personages of Congress. He left the Diet, discussing the military organization of Ger many, without receiving any answer to his pacific project, or being called upon to explain its details." OCTOBER 5. The Duke of Kent left Aix-la-Chapelle this morn ing, at eight o'clock. The question of the evacua tion of France now talked of in all societies as de cided. As et the formal act has not been signed, but the sentiments of the Ministers and Sovereigns all concur in the measure which only now awaits their official sanction. The greatest difficulty in the ulterior arrangements, and in the settlement of the securities, will arise, it is said, on the part of Prussia. This power, it is ill be remernbered, sheaved the greatest dis satisfaction at the delays, that occurred the affair of the private reclamations, and probably dreads simi lar inconveniences in the payment of the contribu tions, unless the guarantees shall be altogether unex ceptionable. The general d.tails which I sent you as prospectively those to be adopted are in the main cor rect, and will meet the views of all the Powers. The ball given by the City last night was eery brilliant, and will be long remembered in the annals of the Redoubt of Aix-la-Chapelle. The houses op posite the ball-room in this pile of buildings were illuminated. Prusiiangen-d'armes on foot and horse back attended, to keep order and clear the streets for the carriages. Every carriage in the town and neighbourhood was put in requisition, and many of them, like our coaches employed in bringing elec tors to the poll, returned and brought successive quotas. The Emperor of Russia and King of Prussia arrived about eight o'clock, with their suites. The Emperor was dressed in a Prussian uniform. They were, of course, the principal objects of attraction during their'stay, which was nearly an hour and a half—nor were they idle spectators of the gaiety of the scene, or inactive objects for the public gaze. Their Imperial and Royal Majesties danced a Polo naise with great spirit, with the Duke of Kent, the Duke of Richelieu, Lord Castlereagh, and other dis tinguished persons, the Princess of Tour and Taxis, her daughter, the Duchess of Kent, the Countess of Metternich, (sister-in-law of the Minister), Lady-Cast lereagh, and other ladies. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent attracted particular attention by the richness of her dress and the splendour of her jewels.' • The dances wire principally quadrilles and waltzes. There was only one country dance, which was ar ' ranged by General Maisson, and composed of M. Guarte, the burgomaster, and other merchants of the city. The ball did not conclude till midnight:' E EVENING STAR. LONDON. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9, 181!. THE FUNDS. PRICE Of STOCKS THIS DAY AT TWELVE o'cLorit Bank Stock shut-3 per Cent. Reduced shut -3 per Cent.

So confident have the great Jew speculator% been that a considerable advance would ensue upon the announcement of the final evacuation of the Allied Troops from France, that they have made purchases in the Stocks to an incredible amount, for next time. The consequence was, that yesterday Consols were at' 76f, money, and even at that price several bargains were concluded ; however, the market this morning has taken a different turn, and fallen one-half per cent. Consols opening at 75/ for the November ac count, and 751 i for Tuesday next, settling day.— This account is evidently a Bull one, and the monied men are apprehensive that a considerable fall will take place on or before Settling-day. The Commis aioners gave 75i, and were served generally by the Jobbers. The market looked very heavy after the Commissioners closed their bargain. The Paris Papers of Tuesday, which arrived this forenoon, confirm the intelligence which we gave on Wednesday from the Times, of the evacuation of France by the Allied Troops having been unani mously agreed to at Air-la-Chapelle, on the 2d inst. The following arc the extracts in which it is an nounced: It AIX-LA-CIIAPELLE, OCT. 9. (EXTRACT OF A PRIVATE LETTER). " The third Ministerial Conference has had the most important resultb. " Count Georges de Caraman has set off express for Paris. " It is announced that the Sovereigns will give mutually, a series of fetes to celebrate this happy epoch. Their stay in this city will, it appears, extend to from three weeks to• a month." " PARIS, OCTOBER 5. " According to advices from Aix-la-Chapelle, the authenticity of which, we believe, we can warrant, the dispositions of the Sovereigns towards France, and their sentiments for the King, permit us to anti cipate that the result of their present august meeting will be as prompt and as favourable as all giiod Frenchmen can desire. The resolutions which will be there come to, and which will afford an honour able tribute to the virtues and the wisdom of the Prince who governs us, will, there is no longer reason to doubt, ensure the repose and prosperity of France, and put the seal to a sincere and durable reconcilia tion among all nations."—Mouiteur. " M. Count Georges de Catamau arrived here this morning, by express. lie has brought intelligence that iu the conference which took place at Aix-la- Chapelle on the 2d of October, the immediate eva cuation-of the French territory was unanimously de cided upon. "—Journal des Debats. It appears from these extracts, that the information conveyed by the Times was, in its material features, subsantially correct. The act, agreeing to the eva cuation, was rpt, as represented, the act of the So vereigns assembled in Congress, but the result of a preliminary conference among their Ministers, which remains still to be reported to and confirmed by their Majesties. The Sovereigns, in fact, have not as yet had any formal meeting. The Congress has still to he opened. That the resolution of the Ministers will receive the sanction of their Royal Masters there can be little doubt ; but previously to this, there must be many relative arrangements to be also adjusted by these Ministers, with respect to the manner of evacuation, guarantees, &c. which will probably cause the open ing of Congress to be deferred for yet several days longer. We are corroborated in this view of the fact by the following extract from an Aix-la-Chapelle article of the 3d inst. contained in the Brussels Pa ws, also received this morning : " A report is generally circulated that the three Monarchs will make a journey for four days to the frontiers of France, and that they will be present at the military manoeuvres of the Army of Occupation ; some persons even pretend that their Majesties will go to Paris, but that they will return hither about the 15th of this month. It will therefore not be till that time that we can positively fix Me opening of the Congress of the Sovereigns." French 5 per. Cents. Monday, 75 fr. 50 c. A Flanders Mail has brought us this morning Brus sels Papers to the 6th instant. The passing through of Count CARAMAN, on his way from Aix-la-Cha pelle to Paris, is noticed ; but the substance of the dispatches of which he was the bearer appears not to have transpired at Brussels,. as no allusion is made to them. The following are other Extracts: FRANKFORT, SEPTEMBER 30. The Emperor of Russia had seat his Chamberlain, Count Woronzow, to his Serene Highness the Duke of Nassau, to inform him that he would pay him a visit at Biberich ; but formally desiring drat uo 100- tiours might be paid him. Therefore, the shot. of his Majesty at Bibe r i c h, an d hii passage throt l ,,i, the Rhingau, were only marked by the te,timo,del of respect and admiration shewn not only by ti ts , who had the,honour to approach his person, but by all the inhabitants. His Majesty displayed, vhe rever he passed on his journey, a truly imperikt munifi cence. lie gave to M. Bethman, with whom he lodged here, a magnificent snuff-box set ~ ith tra. moods, and all the servants were recompensed v . the greatest generosity. As soon as his Majesty reached the Pnissian fin k tiers, the King had taken on himself all tl:e elpe ttie w the posts. The Emperor paid the Came altention to th e King on his late visit to Russia.

GHENT, OCTOBER 4. The Journal of the Two Flanders did not appear yesterday. It appears that the office has been sealed up, and the workmen interrogated. The Editor confined au secret, without the motives of this mea sure being positively known, which will doubt! , be explained by the proceedings. The displeasure of FERDINAND against his Ministers is said to have been occasioned by the se; pression of certain information relative to the yoked colonies, or with respect to the occupation the Floridas by the American troops. A letter fr Madrid, of the 17th ult. states, that the British A. bassador at Madrid had for some time been in habit of allowing British subjects, and frequen Spaniards themselves, to peruse the Engli h pers sent to him from this country. We now leis i that the Spanish Government had intimated to Ambassador, that they wished that Englishmen ah should have access to the ;ournals.—Another priv; letter, which will be found in a different part of Paper, states, that the Count de l'Anissin bas bi superseded in the command of the army said to destined for South America, and that General Far. has been appointed by the new Spanish Government in his room. Accounts have been received from South AMC! , down to the end of August, which describe in gl ing colours the reviving - prospects of the Patric forces in Venezuela. The principal details will found at length in our preceding columns.
