;:VVIZV M. DE VILLELE. 'lle following are some particulars rif the rise of the present Fiends Minister of State. Joseph de Villele wd born at Too louse, in 1773. Ili. father WAS neither noble nor rotoffrier—neither rich ton pow.. In.- 1791 he ac companied his *elation, M. d St. Felix, to the Isle of Bout wt ere tit:• latter had been narsod to the co4l - of a station. Sho•tly after their -arrival As the Lie of 13, urht'n, the inlial!itants formed 4 d.ib, in which M. de St. Felix, the Orclated enemy of the new order of things, had himself ol:en represented by M. ee Villele. When further oppo.:ti,in became useless, M. de St. Felix quitted (he is:e, wish all th •se under his command, ex cept M. de Villele, who remained behind, and it is said, -shear conditi.ms with the triumphant par,y. Ile en tered into the employment of M. Deshassins, a rich plaiiTer, and ,o,ti bee Imo manager of his estases, and in the end mars ieJ his claug'iter. He then became a man of impotance, and was named Member of the Colonial A •se:obly. Atter al .ng sojourn in ;he isle ot Bourbon, he b came desirous of se. in, his native country, and having tie.gi.tei a vessel with sugar and coffo, and ar rived in Fiance with it at a favourable moment—that of the ru,,tuie of the Poace of Aoliens—his coffee and' sugar s i iecul ,tiott wined out so well, that he was ena bled to cl. ar off the incumhrances of a small paternal property, and, by well-directed improvements, to double its v lite. Notwithstanding his enterpti ing and busi ness-like habits, he art ived at no higliei functions under tlo Empire, than tho.e ot Member of the Gentral Coun cil of the Depar.ment of the Upuer Garonne. Until 1814, his name figured only in the Almanack of the Department. On the entrance into France of the Anglo- Spanish armies, he was one of the first to congratulate Lord Wellington on his success. Shortly after the Royal Declaration of St.Ouen, which contained the basis of the Charter, M. de Villele published a kind of protest against the principLs contained in it, and denounced nomina tively, a, fraught with danger, the existence of a Cham ber of Deputies, and the irrevocability of national pro. perty. On Napoleon's return from Elba, M. deVillele was an active supporter of the Baron de Vitroles, in his exer :ions in favour of the Royal cause at Toulouse, but still he was insignificant ensugh at the time to escape arrest. After the hundred days, M. de Villele was named Mayor of Toulouse, and soon after elected a Member of the Chamber of Deputies, where he took his seat in the extreme grate, voted in favour of the exceptions to the Amnesty Bill, and other ultra measures. Being re elected in 1817, he voted against the suspension of per sonal liberty, and the censorship of the press; declared himself in favour of trial by Jury in case of libel, and stated it to be his opinion that the safety of France and legitimacy was compromised by the existence of those very lass of exceptinn which lie had but a short time before suppos Led. He even, during the Scsion, :hewed himself one of the most zealous partisans of the Charter, against which lie had formerly protested. In 1818 he was dismissed from his place as M.syor of Toulousr. In the Session of 1820 and 1321, M. de Villele again changed his tactics, and voted fur the laws suspending personal liberty and against the liberty of the press; he even demanded that the Ministers should be endowed wails full end mire arbitrary power. Soon after lie was named SeCteLity of State and Member of the Council. On the 21st December,lB2l, be was name:! Minister of Finance, and in the course of the following year raised to the dignity of Count, and named President of the Council. Since then, cordons and cio.ses have rained upon him ; but Isis public acts since that period are too recent and well known to require recapitulation. M. ZEA, THE LATE SPANISH MINISTER. M. Ze.) was s man of obscure birth : his fatl:er being a ship•broker, of the lowest class, at Malaga, where he himself was once eatablished as a merchaiit,.and failed. l Accident took him to Russia, and accident again placed him in contact a ith the Emperor's Government, at t! e time his countrymen were manfully resisting the Tote of Napoleon. llis local knowledge rendered him useful at St. Petersburg!), and froth the Spanish Go ♦ernment he received the appoi itment of Consul General; in which character, in 1817, he claimed and obtained a small indemnity for the rotten ships sold to Spain, throu.A the agency of M. Ugarte. , This was the principal circumstance that brought him into public notice, and he ever afterwards enjoyed the favour of the Emperor Alexander. This, in fact, Was his stepping stone into the Spanish Ministry. The Gravesend fishermen ha* returned to their ssual employment, at the old wages, 16s. per week, and ls, 6d. per day victualling money. The late Mr. SCOTT, of Chelmsford, whose rerna;ns were interred on Thursday, resided in the same house for seventy years; he breathed his last on the same bedstead upon which his mother gave him birth ; and such were his domesec habits, that he never left his house for three months together during the wh .le period d seventy years. Thursday, t:vo men, employed in Mr. Martin's distil lery, at Sligo, while in the act of clearing the backs, were so overpowered by the influence of the gars, that thcy died in a few minutes. A singular circnrnsrance attended the funeral of Miss Sarah Rolls, at ltishani, Bei ks, on Wednesday last. All the bearers were fadierles , , and the average height it the eleven foi!owers exceeded six feet. Ann) 'g the many proofs of the prevalence of Gaelic roots in existing names in both ends of the island, it may be 'pea:lone.% that there ate ten rivers named Aron in Ii itain ; and Avon is simply the Gaelic wcrd for' river.' Tne 19th ult. two men entered the house of Mr. Minks, of Arley, Warwickshire, when the family were in bed, and one of them seizing a gun they found below, and the oiler a knife, rushed up stairs and forced them selves into Mr. Rinks' bed-room, and demanded his money. Mr. Rinks jumped out of bed, and a scuffle ensued, but they succeeded in overpowering Mr. Rinks, and to.)k away about twenty pounds in notes and gold. MEN or STRAW.—A modern traveller in Italy re lat. s the following whimsical account of a ruse de ,guerre practie3 by a highway robber:—" My com panions in the diligence were all on the qui vive, (or the carriage had been stopped and robbeu two evenings before, by a single footpad. This fellow had practised a most ingenious and dating stratagem to. effect his purpose. lie raianufactured ten figures of straw, who, in the duskiness of the night. appeased armed with fusees and sabres; he drew up in the road in battle ar ray, and having taken his post a little in advance of his corps, he ordered the diligence to stop, threatening, if the least resistance was offerei, to call up his compa nions, and put all the passengers to-death. In this manner lie laid the whole party under contribution. amongst whom were two Spanish merchants with their seitkoku, whose purses were heavily laden, and who *etc well armed. .01 , BUENOS AYRES. • The Argos, a Buenos Ayres paper, of the 7th of Sep- tember, contains the teport of a Committee of the' Buenos Ayres Legislature on the proposal lately sob .snitted to it by the General Government, rel .tive to the' Mission of Plenipotentiaries trerihe Conies% of Panama. The ohject of that communication was to (Wain the , auction of the national representatives for the appoint , meat cf such a mission, and their authority for the " specification of its po ers. Tire Committee, to who r the message was referred, report that tl•ey see no neces sity for the interference of the Legislatute to decide the' points submitted to their deliberation, either with respect to the appointment nf Envoys or the nature of their hi. structionc. They express some surprise that such ques tions should have been submitted to the Assembly, and " regret that, as they belonged entirely to the Executive," the Ministers should not have come to a decision' "on their own responsibility. The Government, sa“ the report, asks instructions on points exptessly ptovided for by a fundamental law of theltepublic,and u ith tespect to th.- exercise of powers acknowledged to be itilleient in the Executive by the Constitution of the No: th Amet iCIII Union and that of most other States. Tae commission, therefore, refrain from giving any opinion on the sub ject, and contents itself with observing that the Govern ment has already tuff cient powers to resolve the ques tions on which it asks the judgment of the Le4ishoute., If the Legislature should anticipate the action o f Go . vernment, by specifying the course which it ought to pursue on every particular emergency, what would be come of ministerial responsibility, and what would re main for legislative ratification? On these groands the Committee advise the House of Representative; to interfere no further in the business than to provide the expenses which such a mission, if authorized by the Government, may entail on the coun try. In consequence, and almost in the terms of th's report, a project of law has been introduced and passed, for placing at the disposal of Government the funds ne cessary for the support of two Plenipotentiaries at the Congress of Panama. THE GOODWIN SANDS. The Goodwin Sands, which have again excited such fatal interest, and which have so often caused the de. struction of our ships, and their ill-fated crews, ale very remarkable banks, situated between the Nos th and South Forelands, opposite Deal and Ram , gate, and about seven or eight miles from the coast. The length of the sand is about ten miles, and the breadth nearly two, and consists of a more soft, fluid, porous, spongious, but withal, tenacious matter, than the neighbouring sands, and consequently of such a quality, that when a ship strikes upon it, there is little chance of her getting off, the niture of the sand being such as to swallow the vessel up sometimes in a few hours, while the surf which breaks upon them renders all attempts to ap proach the ill-fated vessel impossible. We have often, when some miles inland, seen the waves breaking over the sands with fearful violence, and plainly discernible, although at a distance of ten or twelve miles. This will enable our readers to form some idea of the tremendous waves which, with a west wind (the worst that ern blow at that spot), hurried the Ogle Castle to de• struction, an 1 her despairing crew to a melanch , ly death, when almost within sight of their destine I po• t. %Wen the water is off these sands, they become exceed ingly hard and firm, so that peop'e may land, and aiy for hours upon them in summer t—ineeed cricket matches have been played upon them, but wee to those who do not quit at the prnpe- moment, for in a very shot t time they become a quicksand, and float to and fro with the waves, and when they retire again, settle as before. When the Trinity House s-me year, since formed a deign to erect a light-house upon them, the engine-rs employed penetrated.to a great depth l with their boring augurs, but they could reach no solid bottom, as the spongy materi rls reacted to su It a depth as to render the design utterly impracticable, and a floating light was in consequence established. Oa the 26th of Nosember, 1702, a most dreadful storm arose from the W.S.W. and blew for many hours with great violence, during which thirteen men of war drove from their anchorage in the Downs, ran upon ;he fatal Good. wins,and were totally los.,with nearly all their crews,only 71 being saved. Concerning the origin of these sands, there are various opinions, but the common received story of their having once been the estate of Godwyne, Earl of Kent, the father of Harold, who fell at 1-lastings, is now exploded, as well as their having once teen an island called Lomea, said to have Inc) destroyed by the si-a in the year 1097, the most probable opinion of our best antiquaries being, that instead of these sands being occasioned by an inundation of the sea, they were canted by the sea's leaving them, at the time of th terrible inundation in the reign of King William Rufus, or Henry the First's reign, which drowned large a p itt of Flanders and the Low Coantr e.. This deser tion of the sea in dies.. pats ini; 4 lit hive been further increased by the following inundations in other tilace, especially upon the parts or Zeal.ind which anciently coati :ted r I fitte, n i,lands, eight of which wine swal lowed up in . Henry the Seconu's time. BATAVIA, JUNE 14.—1 n the night of the 10th inst., the English brig Horatio, lying in t!le toads, and destl tiLed for Beaconlen, took tire and blew up, the efir having communicated to a quantity t,f gunpowder on board. The wreck is already sunk ; ten or twelve of the crew lost their lives by this accident, but by the speedy aid afforded by the boats of the gnardship, a part of the crew was saved. Mr. OAKLEY, the super cargo, happened to be on sho;e. The cause of he misfortune is not known. The 25th of October the King and Queen of Swe- DEN retained to Stockholm, from their jou: ney to Nor way. Tile CROWN PROCE and PRINCESS went to Vesteras to meet them. The KING inlmediately re ceived the Members of the Council of State, and the' first Civil and Military Authorities of the capital, and dissolved the Regency appointed during h s absence. Saturday afternoon, as a respectable elderly Lady, of the name of BARKER, residing in Fann-stre,t, Alders. gate-street, was proceeding along Cheapside, she was pushed down by a crowd of persons coming past at the tim when two well-dressed fellows immediately ren dered their assistance to help her to rise, and in doing so robbed her of a very valuable watch and appendages, and made off. Thursday night, some thieves broke into the ware house of Mr. LINNIT, a goldsmith ani jeweller, in Cursitor-street, Chancery-lane, and carried off a quan tity of valuable property. Sever*l convictions have taken place at Trowbridge, on informations against individuals paying their ser vant: wages in goods, instead of money. r... . POLICE INTELLIGENCE: Al ANSIOV-iIOUSg. CIVENNAZert MININJ COMPANY.— Mr. Cooke, nve of the Directors of the above Company, attended to swear to the fol:owitig affidavit: " London to wit.—J. M. Coolie,. lluckletsbury. in the city of London, maketh oath, Ist, 'DLit he never had any transactions, either directly or indirectly, with Lord Nugent or Mr. Stewart, in money or shates, except the request made by the fano- on behalf of Lord Nugent, as to Shares in the Gwynn..ppe Mining Company; :Mt'', That be never bought of, or sold to, 7.1 r.

Stewart, to Lord Nugent. or any other party, until this deponent was requested to pay laird Nugent a premium on fifty shares, in the Gettnaappe Mining l'ompany. Sworn, &c. " J. M. 0)0K P.." Previous to swearing the above affidavit, :fir. Cooke addressed the Loan distort, and stated that, in cstnsequence of the Liter that had appeared in the Pipets, front Lord Nugent, he felt himself im peratively called upon to give some further explanati o n relative to his Lord 4hies sransactions with the above Company. and to contra dict, in the moat unqualified terms, the atatements contained in that letter. The LORD MAYOR said he agreed with his predecessor iu the ob servations he had made rtlative to the ruinous effects of the late speculations. lie had hoped that the recent di,cussion relative to the above Company was entirely set at re,t. However, in justice to Lord Nugent, he flit hound to 'tote, that a few days since he re ceived a letter, purporting to come fr tin that Nohlenn.n, which, (tom the knowledge he had of his Lordship's hand-writing, he sus pected to be a forgery; he accordingly wrote to his Lordship upon the subject inducing t he letter, and bad that morning received an answer from hi, Lordstaip, in which he stated that the letter was a grus. I.:brit:ado:4 It was, therefure,evident that Lora Nugent had been extremely ill-used by some persons, and if the Lord Mayor had published the letter alluded to, it would base placed his Lord ship in a very unpleasant situation- Mr. Cooke disclaimed all knowledge of the forgery, and said, It wits evidently written by some evil-disposed person, who wished to throw difficulties iti the way of the Company. Mr. Cooke then withdrew. GUILDHALL. Francis Edmonds, a journeyman bookbinder. was charged with obtaining goods, under fake pretences, front Mr. Bird, stationer and leather-seller, Ave-Maria-lane. In September the prisoner presented an order for calf and morocco skins and milled boards, purporting to be signed by Mr. Fidler, bookseller, Militaries. The skins, of the value of Upwards of £4. were delivered to the prisoner, but the boards were sent. by the prosecutor's own servant, when it was discovered that the cider was a fabrication. The prisoner has been lately working with Mr. Remnant, a bookbinder, in Pater- noster-row, but was discharged on Thutsday last. , Yesterday morning, however, be met Mr. Remnant's errand buy, and sent him with another forged older to Mr. Bird's, for skins to the amount of £B, but the fraud was suspected, and the assistance of Kerridge, the ward beadle, was obtained, and the prisoner seized just as he was taking the goods from the boy. Mr. Fibber denied all knowledge of the two orders, purporting to be signed by him, and the prisoner was committed. It was stated that £6O worth of books had been fraudulently obtained from Mr. Whittaker's, in the name of Mr. Fisher, and the band-writing of the orders was precisely similar to those deli. vered to Mr. Bird, but it was not thought necessary to press the case. BOW-STREET. A respectable tradesman came before Mr. HALLS, on Saturday, for the purpose of obtaining a warrant against a lady whose name has been lately mentioned in some of the Police offices, and who bas a splendid establishment about twelve miles from London, on the western road. The applicant stated, that the Lady in question called upon him, as she had done upon several other tradesmen, stated to them that she was a widow in good circumstances, and they, relying upon her representations and her promise of payment, allowed her to have certain goods; but when they demanded pay. ment, she refused to give them a fanhing, said she was a awned woman, and it was to her husband they must look for payment. Mr. Haus recommended the applicant to ascertain if she was a married woman. and if she was married he (the applicant) could compel the husband to discharge the demand. The applicant said it waslimpossible he could ascertain that eir cumstauce. He_ had commenced an action against her, but be thought the could also be apprehended for swindling. Mr. Ilaus said, as he bad commenced the action, he could ren der him ni assistance. list most follow up the proceedings, and abide the result, whatever it might be. A weather-beaten tar was charged with endeavouring to cheat a hackney-coachman. It appeared that on Friday night, Jack, whine ship bad arrived in the river about a week since, was out upon a cruise. In such a situation, all the world knows that rum, a girl, a coach, and a fiddler, rank, in the estimation of every true sailor, among the necessaries of life. With the first two, accord ingly, Jack Wyer, of his Majesty's ship the —, was soon pro. vidrd—the musician and the vehicle remained among his desiderata, till, on hearing down the Strand, with his partner in tow, Jack espied No. 601, Ming at anchor near the bottom of Southampton street. The coach was hailed and boirded without ceremony; and now fairly afloat, the jolly couple started off, without any par ticular haven in view, to drift along whithersoever the wind might blow, or the Jartry drive. After cruising about for something less than two hours, during which time they had touched at one or two eictuaiiing offices, in Hungerford•street, How -street, &c. and taken itt*esh stores of rum, Jack grew tired, and ordering his pilot to bring to, opened the door, and landed himself upon the pavement. lie was walking off with much norsche!ance, when Mr. Bury, under whose especial superintendance No. 601 is conducted; accosted him with a polite intimation that he had forgotten to pay his freightage. Jack, however, swore roundly that he had nothing to do with that. " The lass had hailed the coach," and she might pay for it out of the largess he had already liberally diffused in that qu trier. But the young lady had tidier things to mind than the pament of coachmen, and had g 'tie off to look for another sweet heart ; so poor Jack, who conk. not he made to comprehend his liability, was given in custody, on his positive refusal to fork ese any more. A settlement of the matter out of doors was proposed; to which Jack readily assented, and the pities walked off together,' in full argument, to arrange the bu , iness over the mediating in. ' , fluence of that divine liquor, which, if it often occasions war, is, frequently, no less instrumental in patching up a peace. MARLBOROUGH STREET. A young man, a footman in the service of Mr. Bootle was brought before the Magistrate as a deserter from the Ist Regiment of Foot Guards. It appeared that the recruit and a private of the above Regiment lead been drinking together the previous evening, and the lacquey's heart bearing high for glory, he was induced by his companion to take a shilling in the King's name; but neat morning all Ins dreams of Waterloo, Ote. bad evaporated, and he did not re collect a word of the business till the soldier arrived at his master's, to claim his man. The Magistrate questioned the right of a private soldier to enlist, bet the soldier said it was authorised in the Guards. The Magistrate held to his opinion ; but the recruit was ultimately taken away as a deserter, until the opinion of the Commander in. Chief was obtained. UNION-HALL. Saturday a man named Higgins, in the employment of Messrs. Pugh, upholsterers, in High-street, Southwark, was brought before the sitting hiagistrate, L. B. Attics, Esq. charged with rubbing his employers to a considerable extent. One of the Gentlemen belonging to the firm stated that the pri. soner was for some length of time suspected of robbing the pre mises before be was detected. The day on which be was appre hended a plan was laid for his detection. One of their trust worthy,servanta had directions to conceal himself in the warehouse to which the suspected man had access. The individual in question bad not been lung in his concealment before he observed the prise ' ner enter it, and proceed to remove a large bag of feathers, which be carried out on his back into the rear of the premises, and set it down in a situation from whence he would find no impediment in the way of removing it off entirely when an opportunity offered. The circumstance was mentioned to the firm, one of whom ques tioned Higgins, who exhibited great confusion ; and, subsequently, a search warrant was procured, and executed upon the prisoner's premises, where a great quantity of property, consisting of articles used in the trade. and belonging to Messrs. Pugh, were discovered. The prisoner was remanded for another examination, in order to have the attendance of a principal witness, to whom Higgins sent a quantity en Russia leather that be had taken from his employers. According to •Michael Kelly's " Reminisences," the late John Kemble .was on one occasion compldining of want of ►uvelty at Drury-lane Theatre, and fiat as Manager, he telt uneasy at the lack of it. "My deo Kentble," said Mr. Sheridan, " don't talk of grit.vance now." But Kemble still kept on saying, " Indeed wt must seek for novelty, or the Theatre must sink—n velty, and novelty alone, can prop it." " Then," te. plied Shetiddn with a smile, " it you want novelty, act Handel, and have music pi eyed during your pauses." SPORTING INTELIIGtNet.
