- FRENCH PiIPERS. • • . PAtlt, JANUARY ei. . . ' The removal to Si, - Denis of the mortal remains of Laws XVI. and • she Queen MAnie ANTonzarra. Arch-Duchess of Austria, rook place this flay, The procession set - out from the Rue d'Anjou at 'nine o'clock in the morning, and arrived at St. Denis about twelve o'clock. The arrangement was simple and majestic; through every part of its progress it passed between a double row of numerous spectators in a grave and silent attitude, and with all the re spectful decorum . which the object of such a ceremony commanded. A great number of the inhabitants of 1 2 :tris had proceeded to St. Denis ; another portion, net less considerable, filled the diferent churches of the capital. The most perfect order prevailed. JANUARY 22. • At cis in the mornirg - the different regiments of - fl:.! gartisen Paiiiivere called out. At seven they occopi4 the Fasts assigned to them, and formed double files, 'tvhiclfectended 'from the house of M. Desdesseaux, it) the Rue d'Anjciu, to the extremity of the village of 'St:Denis . . Precisely at eight o'clock Monsieur, and the Princes, his srns, left the Tuille. ries to . pioceed to the cemetery of the Madeline. On art ivm at that place, their Royal Highnesses entered invt the tent under which were deposited the remains of th• Royal Martyr and his august spouse. The prayers for the dead were said and afterwards, in the presence of the Princes, the fiTst stone of the chapel, which is to be built on the place where the remains of the Kim!: and Queen were found, was laid. -At the moment When the venerable reliques were removed from the Cemetery, all the spectators fell on their kites. It is impossible to con. ceivio 'pectacle more awful or more affecting. An itunr.:ns.: crowd foll Owed the procession from the Ma. deline to St. Denis, and the different corps of the Ring's Household led and closed it. By a singular concurrence, the Prince De Poix commanded the King's Household on this occasion, as he had, with great loyalty and fidelity, on the 10th of August. The glasses of almost all the carriages were open, and the persons within could be seen ; but the glasses el the carriage in which were Monsieur and the Princes Leis c ons were drawn up. Monsieur was in the back of the car, iage, ancrthe Duke de Angouleme and the Du%t, (lc Berry were in the front. Five heralds at al-nis on horseback, in grand costume, with crape r rms, were behind the carriage of the Princes. I'Vtoxt came the funeral car, - on which all eyes were tls and which contained the eternal object of our trg;ret • and our repentance. The car was fourteen f:tt . T..; and slx high. In its middle was placed the rircopliaf2us. which was more than three feet high. The stand tvhich supported it was one foot high, and six ;mot long. - Four plates of silver were placed at the ft,ur .earners of the bar. A semicircular arch of black velvet was formed over the- bier. In the centre eve r e the escutcheons of the King and Queen, sur rarnincd by 'the French crown. Above the sarco phagiis, containing the two coffins, was a pall of black velvet, emblazoned with the arms of France.— This majestic car was drawn by eight horses, ;richly ltari:essed. Etch had a lirge horse cloth of black vel aer, fringed with sliver, interspersed with escutcheons, and surmounted with coronets. . The crown, which terminated the sarcophagus, was visible at it great distance over the whole of the pro. cession. The car was sutrounded by a detachment of bre kindred' Swiss. On the right and left marched .11:* files Of.'the poor of both sexes, each bearing a tiro, and haring badges of cloth on their shoulders. Nunieriais detachments of the gareles.clu.corps, both loot acid horse, escorted the car, following it in very il6Sc ranks. A. detachment of the gen.d'armes, of the King, 'closed the march. This is the first time shat detachments of the four corps of household have been seen* togethtr, and their appearanie had a fine • ifve ct . G .rapoied as they are, of young men, full of .ardour, aril attachment to their Sava eign a pieces of cannon . foilowed, and were fired at intervals: The two obellsiti, which are at the gate of St. Denis were covered with black cloth, to which were attach e d the arms of France, with palms of silver. There the clergy waited for the procession, which arrived about noon. 'lite whole porch . of St. Denis, to a great elevation,' was covered scab black, and the following simple, but touchiffig inscription appeared upon it in large •cbaracters s DOI:MIMI CUM !)ATRIBUS Min cONOASQUE IN SEPULCURO MAJORUM ktEORYJN. 'ehe procusion entered *the church, The coffins, from the funeral car, were placed under a catafalque, suanounted by the royal mantle and the crown, and surrounded by thousands of wax-lights. The church was entirely covered with black, on which, at inter vals, were seen the arms of France, environed by pain branches of silver. The nave and gallery were -tilled with perstnts in mourning. The music of the Zing's Ch a p e l, to which some distinguished hands were added, performed during the funeral service some. exquisite pieces, which heightened, if possible, ) the tedder and religious sentiments that penetrated t h e l a : mi.—Th e following is the order in which the procession arrived at the gate of St. Denis, which it }cached exactly at lialf.past twelve o'clock ; The Governor of Paris aid his Staff. The Officers of the Garrison of Paris. • The Royal Grenadiers. •'l:Bree carriag es and eight horses, drappered and blamed. The Black and the Grey Mousquetaires. The Gendarmes of the Guard. . . five carriages with eight horses, dripped sad biszonst ' 'nun carriages, with eight horses, caParisossed if aseurning. -e were the carriages of the Princes and Princesses et the 0.,d ; viz. the Duke d'Angouleme, the Duke de Deny, the d'Orlean', the Prince de Conde, tbe Duchene( Or leans, the Princess of Orleans, and the Duchess et Bourbon. • • The King of 'Arms and the Heralds Of *ne s The ilearse, similar to the Catafalque. dour Companies of tkit Gards du Corp& • Sev. ral corps of Cavalry. At two o'clock the Bishop of Troyes delivered the Funeral Oration. He took for his teat the wards of David, repelling with indignation the counsels of his friends, who wished to destroy iattrierni d rum, &e. The discourse was eloquent and pathetic. lie was listened to with the most profoend and solemn attention. The-ceremony terminated at half-past four o'clock. Frdtn thal time until five cannon were fired from a battery plieed on' the left of 'St. Denis, and which, to4eilier with the tolling of bells, never eeiteed for an instant. Toe cardi s ts.beiongin g to the Procession entered Paris at fouto'clock. After the ceremony, tbe Princes, accompapicd by , . the 1 1 / 4 1.trshals of Pram, arida great number of Staff • Officers, dined together at St. Denis. The weather wAkceld, and the sky cloudy s .but all the inhabitants of the capital wished to see the pro cession pass, and the crowd from Paris to St. Denis wes immense. Not a cry nor a word disturbed this rdigious ceremony. Every one appeared affected by sentiments which it could not fail to inspire. The windows of several houses on the Boulevards and the Fauxbourg Saint Denis were hung with black; all the shops on the road were closed. Although the road was slippery and dangerous for horses, we have not heard of the slightest accident, owing to the precau tion of laying down gravel. 114 . 3 1 • • • •1 4 1 4 YIENNA, JANUARY it. The departure of Field Marshal Baron de Koller is again spoken of; .he is to proceed to the Isle of Elba, to induce the Es-Emperor Napoleon to change the place of his residence. A residence in Scotland has been propowd to him, where he will regularly ,receive the pension granted to him. The report spread respecting a change in the Aus trian Ministry appears to be unfounded. Yesterday and to-day two Italian Regiments arrived here, each consisting of three battalions i we .expect to-morrOw and the day after the remainder of the Italian troops. With the exception of four regi ments of grenadiers, which are to remain here, they are to be placed in garrisons in Bohemia, Moravia, and Hungary, and also in Lower Austria. From the number of strangers who flock into this capital, one might suppose that the Congress has not .yet commenced—for one individual who departs, there arrive at least three. THE EVENING STAR.

Last night we received Paris Papers, of &IndAy's date, from which we have given, in the preceding co. lumps, some interesting details of the ceremonial of the funer.il of Louts XVI. and his unfortunate Quer.% The spectacle was in the highest degree imposing and sublime; and the lesson which it offers to all ranks, and to every country, will, it is to be hoped, not be lost upon mank.nd. It was our intention to have gone more at large into some of the details and die reflections to which they give rise; but the arrival of another day's Paris Papers obliges us to reserve a part of our columns for their contents. The Monist:sr of Monday contains a dry official de tail of the funeral ceremonies of the 21st, and an order of the day, thanking the troops for their decent and respectful behaviour on the occasion. The Duchess of ORLEANS is recovering fast from the effects of her fracture ; no fever has come on, and the pain in the limb is slight. The minor Journals contain a long article from Madrid, in which the Spaniards are made to grumble loudly at the gloomy aspect of affairs, which the King's conduct has produced. They have no friendly intercourse whatever with any other nation: their Ambassador at Congress is not respected or even listened to, and there is not even a foreign Minister at Madrid, for the English Ambassador is said to have taken himself off•in disgust. Arrests for politi cal causes still continue, and an obnoxious junta of Jesuits still directs the councils a the silly FERDI• NAnt. There is, it is true, a frequent interchange of couriers with the Court of Rome, but for what good purpose we cannot divine. An article from Rome contains an abstract of a Papal Bull, tending to preserve the respectability of the Catholic Clergy : they are prohibited from ap pearing at Theatres in the habit of their order, from exercising mechanical professions, and from being , heads or masters of establishments. There is no appearance of the Empress MARIA Letyisn being ousted from her new principality of Parma and Placentia, for a regular Government has been recently organized under the superintendence of her august father. • A linter from Naples states, that JOACHIM becomes daily more Insecure oa his throne. The Pora has re cently assumed a tone of hauteur and defiance towards him, which augurs, in the opinion of the writer, a change in the sentiments of the Allied Sovereigns towards MURAT. This is precisely what may be ex pected. The state of the French finances is described as very flourishing : they have been greatly improved by the voluntary renunciation of the claims of the inhabitants of -France for indemnification in cense- Twine of the ravages of the late war. MONUEUR (Count d'AaTois) remained half an hour on his knees beside the coin of his late brother, and was induced with evident reluctance to give his consent for the moving of the procession. A Dutch Mail reached town this morning. It bas furnished us with the following artklgs : WARSAW, DECEMBER 27. A very numerous Polish army is organtaing. The Poles enrol themselvis with meal, thoUgb they ass not quite satisfied with the fate that seems to await Po. land. It appears that the re...establishment of our Kingdcm will not bg complete Other in cespect of the territory or of its independence. What was formerly., incorpon# with Prus!ia 4 retrains mated to it . t sof that it can only be the Duchy of Warsaw which will be made into a Kingdom, and be united with Russi 1, precisely as the kingdom of Italy was with France a, par ago. We expect the speedy publication of our new Constitution, in which Alexander himself is employed at Vienna. BRUSSELS,•JAWIARY 19. It is still reported that the Prussian troops on the Rhine (notwithstanding all the accounts to the con trary) Are taking a strong position, and the fortresses arc putting more or less in a state of defence, and in general that the military measures continue till the Congress shall have put an end to the anxiety el Europe. Our provinces, however, suffer by this state of things. Deserters, ill disposed persons, and even criminals, easily and an asylum by retiring from the ,one territory into die other, and hence arise robberies, housebreakings, and p uticularly in the neighbour. hood of Namur. We hope, however, that the pre cautions which have been taken, and the seven com panies of Marechaussee, consisting of chosen men• .will doon pat stop to these disorders, the inevitable consequences of war. MOUE, JANUARY eo. We have been for a considerable time informed of the extraordinary joy which news of our recovered independence Nicked iti the East-India possessions.— :This Is uwir'itotifiritted by an address from the Dutch Colonists at Batavia, dated June 3, 1814, containing the warmest expressions of fidelity and love to the Prince Sovereign, and of inviolable attachment to the mother country. The expression of their laudable feelings was accompanied by the subscription of large sums in aid of the ppblic treasury. The lists were not closed when the accounts came away, but the Govcrnor•General Siberg, has sent 2,500 florins for the relief of his poor and worthy countrymen in Holland, for which handsome present .the Secretary of State is ordered to signify to him the particular satisfaction of his Royal Highness. LEIPSIC, JANUARY 11. A'report is current, which • however does not seem probable, that the Saxon troops will return CO Saxony, and be assembled behind Dresden. VIENNA, JANUARY H. Au English State Messenger arrived here last night with dispatches of the highest importance for' Lot d Castlereagh. It is believed they contain fresh instruc tions for that Minister. The most proloutad uncer tainty continues respecting the discussions between the apincipal Powers. Poland and Snotty are still th e parent points of difficulty. France sums to insist that Prussia shall be removed from her frontiers. In the midst of these important negotiations, mere gravity and reserve are observed to prevail, even in the midst of fetes and pleasures: the negotiators seem afraid that their secrets may be guessed at, and in dulge much less in the pleasures of society. On the other band, tbe• arrival and departure of couriers is incessant. The Chancery is extremely busy, and in the War Office they work till late in the night. The course of exchange does not rise, but is rather progressively declining. All Obese are indeed but appearances, which may perhaps deceive us; but they excite alarm, and are sufficient to inspire fear. The public attention is in some measure directed from the negocia►.ions by the conspiracy in Italy. Most of the conspirators are military men; they had a correspondence in Tuscany, in the Kingdom of Naples, and in the Isle of Elba. A N•upolitan Ge neral who was applied to, to join in the conspiracy, discovered it to King Joachim, who hastened to in form General Bellegrade. On a certain day there was to have been a new Sicilian vespers. The conspirators will be publicly tried at Milan, by a tribunal instituted for that purpose. It is the general wish that the conspirators, when convicted, may be severely punished. It is time that Europe, disturbed by factions for these 25 years, should re cover its happiness and its repose. ANOTHER LETTER-SAME DATE. The negotiations have taken a more favourable turn within a few days, and it is now nearly certain that the difficulties relative to Poland and Saxony are either removed, or on the point of being. We fear only that the Sovereigns - having been so long detained will depart before all is finished, which would protract the provisional state in which Germany is. CRAILE, JANUARY 22. The Asesseini Zeitkni, of the 15th of January, says, the note so much expected from Austria, Eng land, and other Powers, has been delivered to the Congress; and it is known that the contents are very conciliatory, and favourable to the continuation of the harmony which has hitherto prevailed among the great Sovereigns. Another pf the three vessels which broke the blockade has arrived in the Texel, according to let ten of the 21st instant, received this morning from Holland. No accounts respecting the affairs of Ame rice had transpired ; but by the next arrival from 'that quarter, in all probability, recent accounts will be received. • Yesterday Lord Macvmut held a Levee. at his Office at the Admiralty, which was numerously attended. The Marquis of THOMOND succeeds the late Earl Of WiSTMNATH as Clerk of the Hanaper in Ireland. Circular letters have been sent to most of the Mi nister,ial MeMbers, requiring their attendance in thei, place; on the 9th of February neat, the day on which ,both Houses of Parliament meet.

Tuesday last the Officers comporing the Cava!r, Depot Garrison, at Maidstone, gave an elegant far. well dinner, at the Star Hotel, to Colonel Farrar •• who is about leaving that command to join his regi ment in ludia. At six o'clock forty Gentlemen sa. down to table, Lieutenant-Colonel Simms of the establishment) in the Chair. After the chic was removed, the glass went cheerfully round, wit!. many appropriate toasts, and the evening was spy::: with the utmost harmony and conviviality. The LORD MAYOR gave a rplendid dinner Tuesday to the Court of Aldermen and City OiAcir: Her Majesty's Birthday was celebrated at Edit burgh by a splendid Ball, at which all the rank beauty, and fashion, were prettnt. A. number of ne. dances were composed purposely for this occas,c which were played by the Band, but corrld nut danced, from the extreme fullness of the Assernl4l , ; . , rooms.

Her Ladyship, though much taller than the usual stature of females, has been cr.- lebrated as a graceful dancer. Her father beat the French—her manners win them. Miss O'NelLL's Belvidera, last night, attracted a most crowded and brilliant audience to Covent-gar d en !leave, and was received with enthusiastic applause The Step-Monier, a new tragedy, performed at the Edinburgh Theatre last week, WAS consigned, before the fall of the curt Ain,to a the tombof all the Cepuletr." The members of the Limerick Hunt have had a general meeting, at which it was resolved, for the. better insuring of their sport, to increase the based of foxes, by taking ground, to be fenced round and sown with furze for covers; £t4o was immediately subscribed. The Lambton Hunt were elegantly entertained or Tuesday se'nnight by Mr LAMSTON at hishospitable seat on the Were, and &large party of the Gen at Durham, Northumberland, and Newcastle. The viands were of the most costly description, and the wines of the first quality. Those gentlemen who re sided too far to return home the same evening, ;bons twenty in number, slept at the mansion, amon4 , st whom were Sir MATTHEW WHITE RIDLET, and Sit CHARLIS LORAINE. A final Meeting of the Catholics took place at Lon', Fistom.'s, on the 17th, when Mr. SHIELs' and all t h e other Petitions were rejected en a report from tht Committee, and the following Resolution propose. by Mr. O.6ONNELL agreed to : " That we do renew our earnest Petitions to the Legislature for Se total and unqualllkd repeal of the Penal Statutes whict aggrieve and degrade the Catholics of Ireland." A debate took place on this vote, and on a divisior upon the propriety of introducing the word a unqua lified" in the resolution, there appeared—For tht Resolution 9—Against it S.—Lord FINOAL dissentee but does not appear to have voted. The next day there was a Meeting at Capelstreet Chapel, when a Petition, drawn op by Mr. ENEAS MACDONNELL, Cork, was adopted, and an Aggregate Meeting sum moned for next Saturday. It was debated whether. instead of Lord DONOUGHMORR and Mr. GaarrasT the Duke of Sussex and Mr. WittizairAn should no be entrusted with the Petition. The general feeling, however, was against this. The late Canteen of the Barracks at Haddin . gton, Scotland, was destroyed by fire, on the morning of Thursday se'nn_ig.ht : it is not known how it originated . INQURsTs.—Monday an inquisition was taken a' Piddington, Noethamptonshire, on the bodies of R Cave and Jane his wife, who were supposed to have been wilfully poisoned ; when, upon an ineestigatior of upwards of seven hours, it appeared that R. Cave who worked at Horton, about a mile distant, was ac• customed to have something hot provided for hio. on his return home in the evening, generally broth and a pudding or dumpling. That on the precedini Wednesday evening he _had a suet dumpling pre pared by his wife, the whole' of which he ate, ant: tound no ill effects from it.
