Austria takes part separated from the depart. meats of the Lower Rhine, with Landau, which will,' however, be exchanged with Bavaria for the Inn •iertel. the Hansruckviertel, a part of Salthurg, the bailliage of Vila, in the Tyrol, and some other incon siderable districts. Bavaria obtains Deux Pont', Kaiserslautern, Spire, Landau, (via. the town, the citadel is a fortress of the Confederation, which Bava. ria has the right to garrison) and some other districts. It loses 287,000 subjects, but obtains 469,608 in their stead. Besides this the Palatinate is to fall to Bava via, when the direct line of the present Gr and Duke is extinct. Darmstadt cedes to Prussia the Duchy of Westphalia ; to Bavaria four bailliagrs, among which is Mellenberg f to Hesse Cassel, one beilliage, in all 18400; but it obtains 201,706 instead, with the cities of Mintz and Worms, and the Principality of Isenburg. TURIN, NOVEMBER 14. The Tunesian pirates, who had fitted out a fleet of three frigates, one corvette. one brig, two xebecs, and seven other vessels, succeeded in approaching in the intoning twilight of the 16th October, to the Penin sular of St. Antioco, where they landed so suddenly, that it was impossible to afford any assistance in time to prevent it. The military force at St. Antioco consisted of only SS artillerymen, that of the Tune 4. mans of above 1000 men. A brisk.fire was made upon them, but notwithstanding the heroic and ob itinate resistance made by the cannoneer' and in:l4. Oltenia, above 100 persons of both seizs were carried into slavery. After a most obstinate .action, iit which the brave Commander of the fort, Mr. Wit, with ;everal others fell, the pirates hastily fled on the Coming up of more troops, having lust many killed and wounded. whom they abandoned, besides those they had carried on board, and then hastily steeped :owards the African coast. One of their vessels was sunk and the others had received considerable da mage. The squadron entered Tunis in a very crip pled state, but the gatemen t of their loss at 600 men SCUDS exaggerated. ire have this day coesieeid our extracts from the Paris Papers received yesterday, vie. those of Satin.. lay last s end this day we give the principal contents if those of Sonday l received this morning. They are till alma respecting LawaLrrrx and Nay. In the Sitting of the Chamber of Deputies, on Saturday, nothing occurred of importance. The Papers before us announce that the Duke ilsAwount.ams had given an audience to the President of the Protestant Cansistory, at Nitues, when on his way to Toulouse. This we take to have been the meeting with the Protestant Deputation which was followed, a few days after, by :he destruction of their temples. He gave them every assurance of good will; every promise of protection. Put were they protected ? Have any of their persecutors been brought to justice? Has their liberty of worship been secured to them I On the contrary, have not the Protestants since found themselveoin such a state as to be induced to pro. mice that they mold not again attempt to open their places of worship till the public ferment should have subsided I What is this; but an admission on'the part If those who extort the promise, that they have with. h4ld protection from the persecosed—that they will net protect them 1 Their enemies are first to be con. vested to the belief of one of the leading principles of Christianity—that persecution is directly opposed to itifirst principles. When is this to take place ? How is it to be effected ? Will the Priests who have re fund absolution to those who favour their claims en gage in this Christian labour ? Who is to do it 1 The Protestants cannot, by the very promise extorted from tem ; and should they attempt it, the attempt would -: converted into a charge of proselitism. We gave yesterday an Order of the Day, issued t I the Duke d'Astioulama on the 19th ult. the day e.fore he left Nimes. In this doenment there is a -..ight allusion to the disgraceful scenes which have ‘ , :en transacted there ; but it is cold and feeble : it thibite, in oar opinion, none of that fire and energy vbith would Sow from a mind disgusted with the lot:aides that had occurred—detesting the spirit In bad led to theas—tesileg for the enesevired set tings of men whose crime was that of acting too ientiously.

PARIS, DECEMBER & • The Duke J'Anguuleme, in passing through Nismes, treated the Protestants with the utmost at tention. He repeatedly assured all the Authorities, that ReligiOus Toleration was one of the blessings conferred by the Charter, and that it was the firm intention of his Majesty that they should fully enjoy it. He cooversed a long time, in particular, with the President of the Consistory, and said to him, with a smile--. , I have no doubt that attempts have been made to prejudice you against me: you have been told, perhaps, Ido not like you. I arn, I confess, a true Catholic; but I shall never forget that the most illustrious of my ancestors was a Protestant." His Majesty %as suppressed the Commission estab lished by Fouche for the examination of periodical works. annum EXTRAoRDINAIRY OF IWXDAY MoItNINO. The Special Commissary of Police at Moues has again ordered Al officers and soldiers not domiciled in that city to quit it in 24 hours. and to go to their homes instantly.

An Austrian Officer, who has arrived here as a courier, has given some interesting details respecting the last movements of Murat, and of which he was an eye witness at Pizzo. Murat having been non reed and made prisoner, a female precipitated herselt upon him, and tore his cockades and decorations from him with rage. After bearing his sentence read he wrote to his family, and requested a pair of scivars to cut off his hair, in miler to send it to his wife, but his' request was refused. He then requested that he might be shot by the small detachment of his 01J guard, which was then at Pizzo, but this was also reused. Nevertheless his request that the execution 'llol'lo take place in the Great Hall Of the Commandant of Pizzo was acceded to. Twelve Sicilian soldiers were then placed close to the door of the apartment ; Murat bid farewell to the Priest who accompanied him. entered resolutely into the Mall, uncovered his breast, gave the word sis fire," and fell immediately, pierced with eight balls. The people of the town were then permitted to enter. The body was buried at night by order.of the Commandant. and not carried to Naples as reported. MADRID, NOVEMBER 17. The account of the death of Murat has diffused uaivenal joy here. It will be recollected that this worthless and unprincipled wretch made our streets low with Spanish blood on the 2d of May, ISM— The King has issued a Decree on this occasion, in which* he has made a handsome provision for the widows and orphans of those who perished in the above massacre.

Friday last his Grace the Duke of WaLworou gave a splendii ball and supper at his snagrficent Hotel in the rue St. Honore, which was attended by all the English families of distinction in Paris ; the supper rooms groaned under a load of lusurilus viands; the wines were of the most delicious &scrip. dim, and every thing bespoke the noble character of the British Hero. Dancing commenced call'', and continued till a late hour, and the " worthy British Dames," " tripp'd it on the light fantastic tue," with their native elegance and grace. The ankle addressed " To THE &APEMEN:INS or Ewtora," given in our columns this day, is A trans lation from a Pamithiet, published at Pat is, tlw object of which is to procure the expuLion of the present KING of SWEDEN and BEENAD )TTN, and the re,tora tion of GusTavus ADOLPHUS. The facts stated de serve great attention. The world has not forgot the abuse that was thrown out against Guarnvua at the time of his expulsion, and the pains that were taken to impress Europe with a belief that he was a madman, and another CHARLES XI I. nor has the world now to learn, that, excepting in our own country, the Press of Europe was entirely under the controul of the French Government—and wholly devoted to the purpose of disguising truth, and calumniating every individual who dared to object to the schemes of BONAPARTE. and particularly to his Continental System. This system was rejected by GUSTAVUS ADOLPHUS. He was the only Monarch of the Continent who dared at the time to brave the threats and the ven geance of the tyrant—the only Sovereign who never submitted to receive and execute his mandates. Monist such a man, suffering in such a cause, and hurled from his throne by the procurement of such a being as BONAPARTE. or by causes rising out of that revo. lotion which raised him to the throne of France— ought such a man to be left to wander as an outcast au foreign lands, while every other Monarch, by the overthrow of the tyrant, has been restored to h. s throne and his dignity e Should a foreigner—a re volutionary soldier, be allowed to succeed to a throne • acquired under such circumstances As to the argument. that " the Monarch who holds a throne by the choice of the people, holds' it by the best of all possible ties :" it does not apply on the present occasion. We have no evidence that the present King of SWEDEN was called to the throne, or that BERNADOTTE was hems irk declared Crown Prince of Sweden by the choice of the ireapk. We have only the declaratillis of men acting under a foreign influence—the affirmations and statements of a let. tered Press. Let GteiTAPUS ADOLPHUS have the same means afforded to bim that have been given to other States to enable the people to declare their genuine sentiments, and he will be hailed by. the Swedes as their lawful Sovereign. .5.
