The brigs l'E;4l;re and D:iten, fitted out at Nantes . , have been seized on the coast of Africa by the Frenc h squadron in those seas, for violation of the laws respect ing the Slave Trade. These two vessels have been sent into Senegal, where the affair will be investigated be fore the tribunal. Accounts received from Toulon state, that 4 proper measures are taken to meet with the Algerine corvette on Its return from Alexandria, and that the necessary precautions for the security of French subjects in proper time has been ordered and executed with equal success • and promptness. Our readers know that M. Ginstiniani, nuncio to the Pope in Spain, has been recalled at the desire of his Catholic Majesty. We leatn that his Holiness has just appointed this Prelate his legate in the late Spanish Colonies in South America, with full power for the in stallation of his Bishops in that country, in convent with the local authorities. M. de Cordova, late Secretary of Legation at Paris, has just been appointed Minkter oFSpain to Copenhagen. It seems that it is M. Villalba, Chief Clerk in the office. who is appointed Secretary to the Duke of San _ Carlos. Monseignoer Adalbert and Skarzeuski. Archbishop of Warsaw, and Primate of the kingdom of Polatid, died on the 12th of June, aged 84. Yesterdey a violrnt storm with thunder and hail' burst over the capital. The Garden of the Tuileries was covered with branches torn from the largest trees. The lightning struck the house at the corner of the Rue Richelieu and the Boulevard Italien : it dashed the chimney to pieces, and afterwards disappeared in the Boulevard. Happily everybody had sought shelter from the torrents of rain and hail, and nobody was in jured. It is feared that the surrounding country bas suffered severely. • The storm came up again during the night. The fact which is perhaps the most worthy-of the attention , of meteorologists this year, is the coexistence of the drought which threatens the harvest of the north of Europe, with inundations which ravage the middle and the south of the Continent. In the provinces on the coast of the Baltic, it is feared that the extreme heat, and the want of rain, will wither up the corn before it comes to maturity, and the same countries may, per haps, be ravaged in the sequel by the overflowing of the rivers, which have been swelled at their source.— The Elbe, in pa: ticular, is at such a height as to cause great apprehensions. We have a letter from Havre, of the 2d of July, I which says—" The Great Britain, of New York, with 2300 bales of cotton, destined for Havre, was ordered by the consignees, as soon as it arrived in the roads, to go to Liverpool." • A letter from Naples gives most afflicting accounts of the ravages caused by the inundations in Lalabria, viz. at Reggio and its environs. Besides other torrents, the Calopinari and the Sr. Agatha overflowed their banks and did immense damage, not to speak of the injury done to the finest farms, country houses, mills, Btc. and on the 6th of June the Calopinari ease in the night, de. stroyed seven houses, damaged ten, and obliged the in habitants of fifty others to leave them all; those in the square of St. Philip were laid under water. The com munes of Gallico and Calons, the first of 885, the se-, cond of 1,770 inhabitants, were almost wholly destroy •ed ; 17 persons perished at Gallico and one at Calona. All the merchantmen and fishing boats were dashed to pieces. In the town of Scilla the left side of the cathe dral is ruined, the streets choked up with sand and stones, and 36 houses destroyed; twelve persons, who were out fishing, perished. A great deal of other da mage has been done. A whale, the largest specie!, was cast on shore near Otranto, on the sth of May. Its immense size may be imagined from the fact that the united efforts of six strong oxen and 40 men were required to draw a wag gon loaded merely with the skull. PROM Till 001111TITLYTION1lEL. We have received from the Marseilles Lazaretto the following letter, %%Filch contains some very satisfactory news respecting Lord Cochrane's expedition: "I left the Hellas frigate on the 31st of May, off Calama, and • have returned to Marseilles on board the Unicorn schooner, after a three weeks passage. Having been in Greece during the three months which have elapsed since Lord C.ochrane's arrival, and hav ing served as an Officer on board his frigate, I can bear witness to what bra passed during that time. Lord Cochrane arrived in the Unicorn on the 17th of March.— greece eras then in the greatest disorder. Anarchy was at its height in the Government, and in another month a civil war would have commenced. The firmness of Lord Cochrane happily put an end tribe confusion. The two parties discontinued theirreciprocal eriminations, and the deputies of the different provinces cordially assembled on the td of April at Heinle. " The first obj. ct of Lord Cochrane was to relieve the citadel of, Athens to raise the siege, and deliver the brave Fabvier. No thiiig calculated to ensure the success ofithe enterprise was neglect. ed by that brave Commander, aided by General Church ; but the Greeks, though naturally very btave, are deficient iirthe discipline necessary for securing military triumphs. The result of this affslt Is known to you.. '' On the 19th of May, the brave Admiral sailed from Speeela, on board of the Hellas, which is one of the largest and finest frigates ever built. He directed his course to the western coast of the Norm, and arrived on the tin at Carton. We descried two small Turkish frigates off that town, but we could not come up with them until half-past eight in the evening. The attack then com menced, but the darkness of the night prtvented us from fully availing ourselves of our advantages. The frigates escaped amld.t the obscurity. We afterwards learned from an lonian vessel that one of them had suffered severely ; that the Captain and 30 men were killed, and 70 wounded. " On the following day, a Tutklsh brig, loaded with powder and previsions fur the Ottoman army, was taken by a stratagem. We hoisted Austrian colours on board the frigate. The Turkish Captain came on board, and we made him prisoner. Several Turkish Officers of distinction, *ha were on board the brig, surrendered without resistance, as soon as they learned that Lord Cochrane was in person on board of the frigate. As soon as the Turkish *oldie's found that they were prisoners, one of them lighted a match, and was about to apply it to the powder, and blow all up, but be was stripped in time to prevent the execution of his project. They thought that being prisoners they would, as others had formerly been, be massacred. " The Tprks were treated with great humanity, and two days after they were set at liberty, and landed on the coast of the Mores, opposite Canine. Lord Cochrane gave their Captain two letters, one addressed to Ibrahim Pease, and the other to Kiutahi Packs, the two Turkish Commanders. In those letters Lord Cochrane stated, that as long as he should have the command of the Greek Sect, he would treat Turkish prisoners according to the laws of war observed by European nations, and that he hoped the Turkish Commanders would act in the like manner. " I regret much that the steam-boats are not yet arrived from Nargland. Had they been along with the frigate, the Turkish fleet, committing of a ship of tbe line, thirty frigates and corvettes, with as many brigs and galleys,would before now have been repeatedly at tacked. smd perhaps totally, destroyed. It Is to be hoped that the GrCeit Committees in Europe will unite their efforts to fit out the steam-boats, and forward them to Greece, for without them it is impossible that a single frigate, however great the talent and gal lantry of 140 rd Cochrane, can triumph over the united efforts of so rental:losable a Beet, to arldeb moat be added an Egyptian fleet del the same (•rce." , PROW TAN nominators. Our correspondent an the Austrian capital writes to us as follows 1--" I has►en to inform you. that the re- 1 sidence of the Prince Don Miguel, in this •capital, is approaching its term; Every thing is changed with respect to him. and Europe will won learn the new destiny of the noble Infant." • THE EV ENING.STAK.

The difference, it is true, is not very material, as it amounts only to the sum of 45,5501. but still it is an increase, and a fair subject ot Icongratulation, as a proof of a gradual though very Ivlow recovery, and a triumphant reply to those who • insisted that the country had passed the term of ha I prosperity. The produce of the quarter just ended, amounted to 12,045,9971. that of the quarter, which ended the sth of July, 1826, to 12,000,2271. The greatest improvement has . talc,n place in the Customs, chewing an increase of 202 5661. and implying, of course, a change for the better in our fore'gn trade. Halifax Papers to the 17th June, and New Bruns wick to the 10th June, received at the North and South American Coffee-hou•e ; but their contents are unim portant. We received this morning the St Petersburgh Journal to the 19th inst. Its contents, however, will not satisfj the curiosity of the readers to know something of the actual state of the relations between Russia and the' Porte, or of the real intentions of the former Power re lative to the affairs of Greece. On these interesting hopes, the most profound silence is observed,, but this does not invalidate the repeated statements which bare recently appeared in the German and other Continental Papers. It announces, however, a new victory over the Persians ; but the account is too long, and the affair too uninteresting for insertion. We also received this morning Brussels Papers to the sth inst. The Prussian Government has recently issued a notice, ordering the strict observance throughout the monarchy of the prohibition to preach any sermon of a controversial nature, either in the Protestant or Catholic chirches, and threatening to prosecute. without indulgence,any Clergyman, who may slight this notice. The Ministers of the different persuasions are also pro- I hibited from using in their discourses any expressions, tending to disturb the harmony and peace existing between the different churches, and which would be contrary " to the spirit of the Gospel, and to Christian toleration." These papers contain no political news whatever. A Cabinet Council (the third this week) was held yesterday afternoon, at the residence of Mr. Cannon, in Down ing -street, which was attended by the Lord Chancellor, the Mar quis of Lanadown, the Marquis of Anglesey, Mr. Canning, the Hari of Harrowby. the Earl of Carlisle, Mr. Secretary Bourne,, Viscount Dudley and Ward, Viscount Gedetich, Viscount Pal- merston, Mr. Wynn, Mr. Madam'', and Mr. Tierney. The Ministers met at tom o'clock, and continued sitting till half-past five o'clock. The Duke of GRATTON entertained a distinguished Party to Dinner yesterday, at his house in Clarges.street, Piccadily. The Right Hon.

But as this particular period of the year is generally unfavourably to trade, Ike present stillness ought not to becoosidered en indi cation of permanent`declension. We feel on tbicon trary, confident that a few weeks will see a cols iderable improvement both in the demand for our manufactures and in their price. We are particularly happy to state, that the late advances in wages base produced a great and beneficial change in .the circumstances of the weevers, who are not only in foil employment, but also id receipt of wages by which, particularly where there are two or three of them in a family, they are able to obtain a comfortable livelihold.— Manchester Herald. The Directors of the Bank of England having aster tained by exretience, that the capital of that establish ment cannot be employed at a profit of .5 per cent, per annum, they have announced that, after this day, they will discount approved Bale of Exchange at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum ; and that the Branches in the country of their establishmentswill:adept tl,i same rate. The following is a copy of the °Mc's, notification on this subject : " Bank of England, July 5, 1557.

German Papers state, that at the late Leipsic fair the English manufactures were preferred to the French and German, and that the sales were uncom monly great. Among the names given by Germans to the various kinds of cottnir stripes, one pattern *as called " t're Walter Scott." It is said that in conse quence of the rapidity of communication by steam, goods were brought to Leipsic from London at the close 'of the fair, the orders for which had been sent off after its commencement.

So great was the interest taken in Balloon ascents, twenty-five years since, that on this day of the month, in 1802,when Garnerin ascended at Lord's Cricket Ground, he was voluntarily favoured, at starting, with the fol lowing certificate, at the instance of his MAMMY,' then Prince of Wales, who, with the late Duchess of Devonshire, and many of the Nobility, witnessed the sight :—" We, the undersigned, who have been present at the ascension of M.

The last awful sentence of the law was put into ere. cation this morning at eight o'clock, at the Old B ile T , on George Warner, and William Condell, who were ca. pitally convicted at the last Sessions, the former for coining, and the latter for burglary. At half past seven o'clock, the Sheriffs FA imam PE and WINCHESTER arrived in their carriages, accompa. nied by the civic attendants and officers, when ther were immediately conducted.along the lofty and dismal avenues of the Gaol, until they arrived at the apartment where it is usual to go through the prepatatory arrange. meats of the execution. The room contained several Gentlemen, whose curiosity led them to witness the ceremony. . , Shortly before eight o'clock, the Rev, dentin/led proceeded to:the cells of the unhappy men, who x•e•d engaged in prayer. The announcement that tilt fatal hour had arrived, seemed to infuse through Warren a degree of satisfaction, and he evidently made an effort to rouse himself, in order to meet his punishment with fortitude. He was conducted to the Press-room, on entering which he gazed wildly around him, as if he did n..t expect to meet so numerous an assemblage of persons. ►de bowed respectfully, and walked over to Jack Ketch's assistant, who coolly pinioned his arms. The countenance of the unfortunate man bore an ap. pearance indicative of anxiety end grief—his eyes being inflamed and sunken from having recently been suffused in tears. Being bound, he took his seat until Condell was brought into the room in a state of complete despair, tears rolling down his cheeks, and his lips quivering in a convulsive manner. Every preparation being gone through previous to the last destined ceremony, the Sheriffs proceeded to the door of the room; they were followed by the Rev. Mr. Cozzou, in his canonicals, and the culprits, who prayed as they walked along. The procession moved through a long and narrow pas sage, leading to a spacious and lofty room, which would be in utter eta knells, were it not that a lamp exhibit ing a glimmering light is suspended from the centre of the ceiling by a long chain. The.appearance of the place affords a most glotimy picture. On entering this apartment, the sound of a dismal bell vibrates through the dome, and infuses through those not accus tomed to the prison an elegtite effect. The culprits at this crisis were separated, for the put pose of per. forming the usual ancient ceremonies in cases of high treason. Warren 'was fed to the felon's door, opposite which, in the Old • Bailey, an hurdle, of an extensive description, with straw, was placed. War. ren, on beholding this, grew pale, and trembled. 'He walked with apparent fear to the hurdle, and seated himself. en the straw, when Mr. lia.zza sate himself down by his side, and directed his • thoughts to HEAVEN. A horse being attached to the hurdle, it was drawn to the gallows slowly, the executioner duting the petiod standing behind the culprit with a naked broad sword in his hand. He was ultimately placed on the scaffold, and .vas instantly afterwards followed . by Con de!. The executioner having adjusted, the rapes, Mr. COTTON read an appropriate prayer, when be gave the signal, and the unfortunate men were launched into eternity. They struggled but a few moments. Nichols, the young man convicted of sheepstealing, received a respite last night at eight o'clock:. During the awful proceeding, we could not avoid noticing groups of young pickpockets and dissolute girls indtslging in the most infamous language, and forcing their way through the•crowd, evidently with the intention of picking pockets. THE CAMELEOPARD. FROM TUE CONSTITUTIONNEL OF TUESDAY. The long expected cameleopard has, at lengthar rived, and made its solemn entry into Paris at half-past five on Saturday afternoon. A Darfur negro, named Atir, and a Moor of Sennaar, called Hassan, both sent by the Pacha of Egypt, dressed in their turbans, &c. held the animal in a baiter, and were followed by two other Africans. It had been stripped at the gates of its travelling habit, which consisted of a covering of cloth, hang [on it the arms of France. It was accompanied by an escort of twenty-five gens.d'anues, which had been sent to wet it at the gate of Villeneuve Saint Georges. Ail the we from Marseilles to Paris three gene Warms, who were relimed l every post. attended, in order to protect it from mischief. A Wagger. 'containing several other articles sent by the Pacha to the King, preceded the cortege, in which we noticed M. Geoffrey-Saint Hi laire, who, forgetting the care of his health in his anxiety for the Interests of whom, had constantly accompanied it till he approached within a few leagues of Paris, and then only confided his poet toles son, from his indisposition becoming too serious tra be neglected. The cabinet of the Jardin des Plante was the first establish ment in Europe which possessed the skin of a cameleopard, ethers not having procured any WI same time after.
