To-morrow morning, there will be a grand review of the First Battalion of the Guards, in St. James's Park. The trcoFs are to form on the Parade precisely at ten o'clock, ar-I afterwards to be reviewed by his MAJESTY. We regret to state that, yesterday afternoon, as the Duke 0 : WELLI N G TON was returning from the House of Lords on horseback, he was followed, hooted, hissed, and flung at by an immense. crowd of nicn and boys, and only escaped other marks of shameless annoyance by the fleetness of his steed to his office in Downing-street, through which he made his escape into tli;! Park, and thence quietly home to Apsley House. The crowd remained in Downing-street a considerable time after his Grace's retreat. A belief appears prevalent in Paris that the late dis turbances in that metropolis have originated in the secret machinations of the party attached to the late dynasty; and the Courrier Francais, and other Papers, are full of para graphs on the subject. It is said in the Paper just men tioned, that " the disturbances which lately burst forth will be the cause of curious disclosures. The vociforatora of ' Death to the Minister,' were hirelings paid to cause confusion, which confusion was to favor the escape of the prisoners in the midst of a revolutionary attack on Vin cennes. Sums of money had been distributed among the mob ; CHARLES the X•rtt ma':.c4,it is said, all kinds of sacrifices, in order to save the Ministers. We have been positively aasured that a credit is opened at a celebrated capitalist's for the support of well known Chouans, who are intriguing at Paris. Two celebrated individuals are closely watched—the one a near relative of Pomo V se, and compromised in the affair of the infernal machines and other Chouainaries of former times ; the other an ex-peer of France, and formerly a Director-General. The aim of the agitators is complex ; escape of the Ministers—to de stroy the tranquillity of the capital, and lay the blame on the heroes of the .29th July ; anti, besides, to place the Chamber of l'eera in a delicate situation, and make it a point of honour with it to pronounce an acquittal. All these culpable intriguers are Ladled. Agitators who have not at their back the people, sink into insignificance, and are innoxious. The good citizens watch, and are tranquil." We have made this quotation, not because we credit its intelligence, but because we think it proves one thing, that the Parisians are becoming ashamed of the late tumults, and, therefore, endeavouring to disseminate theories to account for them, and remove the odium of such proceedings from themselves. We hope at least that we construe such paragraphs as we have just quoted, rightly ; and that we may augur from them that the peace of Paris is not likely soon again to be disturbed. Our Readers will perceive, from the selection of para graphs we have made from the anti-ministerial Paris papers, ' that a change of ministry, occupies still much of the public attention. It is not, we think, unlikely, that the Kt N G may, to temporise with, and, as much as possible, disarm those who ' seek any pretext to disturb the public peace, find it sound policy to remove one or two whose names have become un popular. This he can do, without giving up the sound policy oftis government; - for other men, with other names, and similar views, we should hope, cannot be found wanting in the circles of the present court. We think this not an im probable stroke of policy to be adopted by the Frenchi government at the present crisis. We wish most sin erely success to any plan, which can consolidate the power of the present French Government, and prevent any fur ther interference on the part of the populace.

We are, therefore, to-day thrown entirely on our own resources ; and fortunately, we have received letters and papers this morning from Paris, from which we are enabled to make the following selections. FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. IIIiCEIVED THIS DAT. PARIS, OCTOBER 24. " I confess I was one of those who had sanguine hopes that the proposed law for abolishing the punishment of death patronized, as it was, by the Xing and Lafayette—would have experienced a warm support by the populace of Paris, who are ever sensible to any thing which can be construed as adding to the beau ideal of their national glory. And I still think it would have been so, had it not been for the united exertions of two factions equally sincere to the peace of Franco—the absolutists and the republicans. To the first, the bigotted partisans of the late Government, it is now believed, that the mobs are principally to be attributed. To them it is gall and wormwood to see the present Government quietly settling down into order and tranquility." They are conscious, that France only requires this domes tic pence to become prosperous, and rather than she should enjoy prosperity under the present dynasty, they would pre fer to see her torn by civil discord, and even that a volcano should destroy her entirely. The apostolic party are capable of any excesses, even against their friends, for the purpose of bringing about their grand design ; namely, to have a bigotted Monarch upon the throne of France, who would restore the Gallican Church to its former power and splen dour. It is scarcely to be believed, that even they are call ing out for the punishment of Polignac and Peyronnet. " Call you this backing your friends ?" But the fact is proved. Two of the most active of agitators were arrested haranguing a crowd in the most violent manner on Sunday evening. They are identified, to be police spies formerly employed by Delavaud and Mangin, both of whom belonged to the congregation. Th , :s.re can be no doubt, but many a7c pursuing this course from a sentiment of justice to their departed friends ; but these men are associated by the counsels of the insidious ene.nies of Government. The Prefect of Police has issued a proclamation, calling on the citizens for good order and obedience to the laws. Ho assures them that impartial justice shall be done to those, on whose trial all the world is now gazing, and reminds them that commercial pros- 1 perky can never be restored, while those tumultuous as semblages continue. He intreata them not to tarnish that fame, which they have so justly acquired, and concludes by saying, that the law is strong enough to protect the innocent and punish the guilty. The unhappy men who are the cause of this effervescence, are not yet removed from Vincennes. Crowds assemble every evening in the gar dens of the Luxembourg, as daily reports are spread that they are about to be brought to their new prison. Each Le gion of the National Guard furnishes daily 200 men, making an aggregate of 2,400, with a company of artillery. Mea sures have been taken, that iu case of any popular commo tion, 70,000 men could be brought upon the Luxembourg in a quarter of an hour, leaving an equal number to guard the city. When the sentence is pronounced, it will be car ried into execution in 24 hours. That truly great and good man, Lafayette, is strongly inclined to the merciful side of the question, and his influence on the populace almost un bounded. He risks his popularity upon this question ,so much so, that I observed, two days since, on passing by the Hotel des Invalides, the bust of Lafayette, which took the place of the gilt fleur-de-lis, on the pedestal opposite the Hotel, was much mutilated. This has no doubt been done by some of the hired mob. It is proposed to con suit the Courts of Caseation, and Royale. previous to the abolition so much spoken of. In the meantime, the many delays which are likely to arise, on points of form, and in the Chamber of Peers, are all in favour of the unfortunate Ministers. The feelings of revenge which now rankle in the bosom of a father, or of a brother, time will soften down, and the poignant grief of the friend and relative, will, by the same soothing influence, be mellowed into a calm regret. — The nation has acted nobly with regard to the compensations made for losses sustained during the conflict. It gives an annual pension to widows and orphans, the latter it under takes to educate and provide for. The Editor of the Patriot, mentioned in a former letter, has been sen tenced, for publishing his paper without the legal autho• rization, to six months imprisonment, and a fine of of 1,200 francs, and the printer to incarceration for one month and 200 franca fine. Many commercial houses have stopped payment here, and others are talked of ; indeed commerce is in a very depressed state throughout France. I t it is to be hoped that the Governmentl,by acting with a con tinuance of the firmness and decision which they have shewn for the last few days, will restore confidence in the commer cial world. Paris has been perfectly free from tumult or disturbance of any kind since the address made by the King to the National Guards ; and although a strong body both of them and the line fill the Court of the Palais Royal every night, I an► perfectly assured that no possible interruption to the public tranquillity is anticipated. OPINIONS ON THE CHANGE IN THE FRENCH MINISTRY. A change of Ministers is still expected; and opinion seems to consider that act of the royal authority as necessary and safe. The names of the new Ministers are not positively known. Let us hope that the Moniteur will not delay to put an end to the uncertainty of the public.--Renolutioa. At this very moment, we understand, that a change of Ministers is on the point of being realised. M. Casimir Perrier would be Presideut of the Council. We must wait to hear exactly all the other names, to judge of this com bination, which, we repeat it, will be without effect if a complete change of system is not the consequence. The Funds have experienced a rise in the only hope of a change. —Revolution. To prevent succeeding overthrows, reform must be seri ously entered into : then the revolution will begin to bear its fruits. One may judge, by what has taken place these last days, what profit men in power reap from inaction. The strength gained by inaction is good to the people, who have always plenty of time ; but it is mortal for those who govern. There must then be other elements for a new Ministry. The extreme left only can supply them. But it must be done quickly, to prevent a crisis : all hesitation would be a fault, an immense danger. It must not be said that it is necessary to wait till the chamber is completed to make sure of a ministry so composed, would sympathise with it. It is the least that can be done—a last produce of the revolution. The cham ber would not create, with impunity, embarrassments to a revolution, brought an without it and against it. The best thing to be done, is to support it provisionally. Its hostility respecting a more candid and open system, would complete its overthrow, and bring about as a necessity what ought to have been expected u a right, the convocation of a national assembly. This grand and desirable measere would then give to government the strength which it wants, and to the people the confidence which it has not. After the Revolution, says ail these things, another pa per asks, and says, " Shall Is e or shall we not have a change of ministry ? Contradictory rumours are spread. At one time there is a talk of a modification, at another a complete remodel : one day the doctrinal party have the advantage ; at another they are said to abandon their place. Of all ver sions which circulate, the following appears to take the most consistence :—Three of the present Ministers, M. M. Mole, Lafitte, and Sebastiani, would be the only ones re maining in office, and would take charge of the composi tion of a new Cabinet. We would bo then released from the doctrinarys; but what signifies a cabinet formed under the triple influence of M.M. Mole, Lafitte, and Sebastiani ? To us each of these men represents an idea : M. Mole, foreign politics, according to the holy alliance. M. Lafitte, the financial system of the restoration. M. Sebastiani, the old and new aristocracy, with its pri vileges. Those three ideas are in opposition with the revolution of July, which want a frank and energetic diplomatic in tercourse ; finances without stock-jobbing, and equality between citizens. The Cabinet personified by the three Ministers above mentioned, would he a finish to the spoiled work of our revo lution, so perverted already by the doctrinaries. The Cabinet directed by them would bo as fatal to the country as the one now existing. M. Lafitte would take care not to touch our monstrous sinking fund : he would not put any opposition to the stock jobbing system, which accumulates at the exchange the gold and credit of which our industrious undertakings have such urgent wants. M. Sebastiani would vote for the inheritance of the peerage, for fear his character might suffer. He would de fend by instinct the privilege under all its forms, and would perpetuate the overbearing disdainfulness of aristocracy. ' M. Mole would walk in the path of the Metterniclia . and Wellingtons, he would not have enough submissive phrases to ask of the remains of the Holy Alliance pardon for the great' liberty taken by the French people in cverth:•ewing a King. This Ministry might displace some men, but with such elements, is struck with imfotency to touch such things. And, nevertheless, that is its work. . A revolution cannot be useless : when a whole nation rises, it is not for the great advantage of such and such an one, it is for its own proper account. All the cries, all words of rallying do nothing to it ; at the bottom of this lies the improvement which its destiny claims. If it does not obtain it be begins again, and attacks of tl:e new as well as the eld Ministers. We have placed a letter, from our Correspondent on the Commerce of France in our First Page, because it is not of such present interest as the other matter we have received from him to-day. but we recommend it to attention. CuoLct•.A Moasus.—Some accounts, but extremely de ficient in detail, have already appeared, of the rapid and fatal progress which the cholera morbus is making in the southern provinces of Russia. The subject is deemed of suf f icient importance to justify iunnediute precautions against the introduction of the disorder into this country ; and with that view a communication has been addressed to the Collector and Comptroller of the Customs, at the differ ent sea-ports, from J. BULLER, Clerk of Council, dated Whitehall, October 5, transmitting a despatch from his Majesty's Ambassador at Saint Peterbburgli, stating the rapid progress of cholera morbue in Russia It recommends the adoption of precautionary' measures to the Commissioner of Customs at the sea-ports to prevent its reaching this country. The letter concludes by say ing, their Lordships consider it of great importance to public health, that the utmost care and vigilance should be used in regard to vessels arriving from places where com munication may be at all probable with districts affected with the above disease, I am directed to desire that von will move the Commissioners of Customs to call the attention of quarantine officers to the subject, in order that they may be careful to enforce the standing orders ; and if any case of doubt or difficulty should occur, they may apply without loss of time for farther instructions.' We have received accounts from Lima, which state that a Decree of Gen. Augustin Gamarra, President of the Re public of Peru, after setting forth the determination of the Government to protect agricultural products, prohibits the introduction of all foreign liquors into the Republic after the sth of Sept. 1830. National and merchant vessels are to abandon the use of foreign liquors in three months after that date, and any person who shall land or vend such liquor, besides suffering the confiscation of the article, shall be punished. A Decree of the Government, dated Lima, directs that all citizens from the ages of 15 to 50 years, shall enlist themselves under proper officers in order to form bodies of militia, both cavalry and infantry. We have accounts this morning from the whale fishery, giving, in some shape, the causes of the recent failare. It appears a fifth part of the vessels in this trade have been an nihilated; but the loss of human life has been trifling, being confined to six or eight individuals. The season, in fact, has been one of the most embarassing ever known, from the accumulated muses of ice by which the navigator was im peded, the continued haziness of the weather, and the fre quent gales of wind. The ships arrived at the proper sea son i n Mel v ille Bay, where, by a strong gals from the South, they were blocked in, and compelled to remain 12 weeks. From this period nothing but disaster took place, which ended in the loss of 18 vessels. CITY. TWELVE O'CLOCK. We have no accounts of any importance. but the Dut..!. and Ostend steamers are expected in a few hours. We 4%, 'seen letters this morning from Ireland, which state that tilt business at Lloyd's Hill has been exaggerated. Letters frotu Antwerp are of opinion that the town will be kept fur the King of Holland.

LIVERPOOL, OCT. 2.5.—We have had a fair demand for the better kinds of British plantation sugar, although tit , prices may be quoted rather lower : the sales are about 85.) In East India sugar, nothing doing. Cottons having continued so very flat, some holders have given way abou htli of a penny per lb. in the price, which may be considered a general decline. The sales of this week consist of abo. 2,000 bags. The demand for Pine timber is only moderate CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. Consols have been doing at, in the course of th , morning, 841 for the account. Stock has been borrowed ,at a premium of 3 per cent. per annum for January, be within a short period console have receded to 84kg. In the Foreign Market, Spanish stock has been done at 22i. Danish and Russian have also improved. In other foreign securities little doing. We have a general report that Corunna has declared ie favour of the coustitutionaliste, and that two regiments have gone over to Minrt; but this is mere report at present 4 ANTWERP, OCT. 22.—AlthoughI have but little to com municate, the receipt of another letter will inform you tl.at the communication of this city is still free; and that we are not yet governed by martial law. It is to be hoped that, if the zeal displayed by the good part of the citizens and tile foreign merchants continue to maintain good order, we may bo spared the inconvenience of remaining in a he sieged town. The separation of the Dutch and Belgian troops has not yet taken place, and which causes some excitement ; but, from the general appearance of things, and amongst them the arrival of General Van Geen—who I informed you is to effect the separation—and the removal of meet of the Dutch, with their families and furniture, indicate the. their further stay will be but limited. With the ceceptiee of General Van Geen, who arrived here on Wednesday as five r.u. and who dined with the Prince of Orange, thee has been no arrival. The Prince goes much about, ant remains very popular. I saw hint yesterday, on hie reta:u from his ride, looking very well, and attended only be an Aide-dc-camp and one groom. You doubtless have liearti of the surrender of the citadel of Ghent ; the ;.:teri chiefly Dutch, with four pieces of cannon, arrived hero yes terday, and took the road to Holland immedit.tely. Indeee the military abound here ; but the total cessation of busints, and the diversity of opinion which prevails as to the probable result of the calamity which has visited Boigium, deprives the scene of the gaiety which in more peaceable times their pre sence inspires. lam ablo to confirm my assertion, that the National Congress will not meet until November the Bth. The advanced posts of the military are now at Wantons, a small village about a league and a half distant from the citadel; and on Wednesday and yesterday there was some smart skirmishing between the troops and some armed men from Brussels. The Brussels paper aaeerts that their pa:ty had the best of it, and admit that they had 30 men killed, and a groat many wounded ; but it is very generally believed here beat they suffered more than the King's troops. ('er tain it is that the former made no advance on their route to Antwerp. The commandant has taken up his residence within the citadel, and awaits the King's orderbefore surrendering it. Sending my letter via Rotterdam, obliges me to close it before noon ; and there can be but little doubt that, should the mail-bag leave here on Tuesday next, I shall have to announce that the Belgians have the undisturbed posses sion of the city. I would fain hope the surrender may not be attended by those scenes of outrage anti pillage which, unhappily, have been too frequent a consequence since the commencement of the struggle. The list of the inhabitants who are qualified to elect the Deputies has just been published. 1 cannot, with any certainty, inform you to-day when the election will take place. —Herald . Mu. ST. JOHN LONO.—The bill which was returned against this gentleman yesterday, contains six counts, each terminating in charging a felonious killing and slaying of Miss Cashin, but varying from each other by the omission or modification of some one or other of the particular aver ments from which the Jury deduce this conclusion. The Ist count charges that be, with a certain inflammatory and dangerous liquid, secretly prepared and mixed by himself, did feloniously rub, wash, and sponge the back of Miss Cashin, or did cause and procure the same to be rubbed, washed, and sponged, he well knowing the said liquid to be inflammatory and dangerous ; and that by such rubbing, he did cause, give, and reocure to be given, one mei :al inflammation and wound upon the back, of the length of tight inches, of the width of four inches, and of the depth of two inches; and that by means of such rubbing, tic. he did feloniously cause anti trocure her to become mortally sick and diseased, and that of such sickness and wound she languished tient the 3d cf August till the 17th, and that on the latter tlav she did die. —The count concludes by the Jurors averring, upon tlei oath, that the said St. John Long did the said Cathariat Cashin, in manner and form aforesaid, feloniously kili and slay. _ _ BOROCGII v.—Tcebday last being :he day ap pointed by the charter, the corporate body of Liskeard as ,sembled to elect a Mayor for the ensuing year. The Er.:l of St. Gennains, as Recorder, was prescut. Thomas Ro bins, Esq. was chosen Mayor, but before Mr. Sargent, the mayor for the year just ended, surrendered office, by adminis tering the usual oaths to his successor, he addressed the noble Recorder and the bench of aldermen, stating it to be his in tention to admit his son to the freedom of the borough, and hoped there would be no objection. No answer was made to this announcement by the Aldermen, though the showed that they were taken by surprise by the intimation of the mayor. His worship without hesitation directed the Town Clerk to administer the usual oath to the candidate for civic honours; that officer refused to do so unless he received directions from the noble recorder. The mayor immediately administered the oath himself, and at once swore the new freeman as foreman of the borough grand jury. After the usual charge from the mayor, the jury retired, but on the foremay presenting uimsel at the jury-room, he was ordered to withdraw. This, however, he refused to do, and we be have made good his claim to he honour he had just retired at his father's hands. In the absence of the jury, the noble recorder attempted to address, the aldermen, but 'be was prevented by the Mayor, who desired his Lordship to sit down, which he did. The mayor elect and one or two of the aldermen addressed the Court, and protested against the tumid peoceedings of the mayor, which they said was illegal. being in contravention of one of the by-laws ; the gentlemen also declared they were resolved to abide by and support the good old system to the last. In the end, the mayor elect was sworn into office, and the illegality of the late mayor's con duct remains to be decided by a higher tribunal.— West Briton. II I ~ ! I , ' *,
