Sir ROBERT PEEL; and what will make it an agreeable domicile for his Ex-Mai EsTY, there is a College of Jesuits in the neighbourhood. His Royal Highness the Duke of CAMBRIDGE had an interview this morning with the Duke of WELLINGTON, at his official residence, Downing-street. His Royal Highness also paid his respects to Sir GEORGE MURRAY, at the Colonial Office. Accounts of some insurrectionary movements in Spain have been received this day at the Foreign-office in llowniug-street. -~- It was rumoured on 'Change, at two o'clock, that the Ex King of FRANCE has got the permission of Government to land in England, and to reside in the country as a private individual, under the title of the Duke of MILAN. We give below farther details from our Correspondent at Paris, by which we are pleased to perceive, that the instances of disaffection among the Parisians have disap peared, and seem to have originated but from temporary causes. The only new fact is, and one which we regret, the capture of the Prince de POLION AC and his companion. We regret it, because it brings a question on discus sion which would otherwise have been well avoided. The persecution of these individuals can do no good to the triumphant cause ;—but must do evil. We trust, how ever that the French Government have more magna uitnity than appears to characterize some of our contem poraries ; and that the delivery to prison of one who has always had the merit of being consistent in sen timent, will only afford an opportunity for another favourable exhibition of the French character: that which truly forms the distinction between the barbarian and the civilized man—the absence of the spirit of revenge. They have prudently allowed the Ex-King, accompanied by a General of equivocal fidelity to any cause, to leave the country, and surely they will not condescend to wreck a pitiful revenge on those probably less culpable, who have by accident fallen into their hands. _ _ An anecdote is told of the Prince de PotruxAc during the revolutionary warfare in La Vendee, which proves Lein to be a man capable of the most generous and mag nanimous sentiment ;—and such qualities, we are sure, will be appreciated, even under circumstances calculated to give rise to a just prejudice. No !—we feel confident, the French national character is too refined, to omit the glorious opportunity of showing forth its real attributes. fly 14, will they truly erase the darker spots in the history of their Revolution, and render themselves still more the admiration of surrounding nations. ,—___ We have by express the Gazette de France, dated yataerday ; and other papers of Wednesday night with letters of the latter date. Extract of a Letter.—" Previous to his departure, CLarlea X. thanked the Commissioners for their kindness to him on the road." Tou non, Aug. 12.—Letters from Algiers give the following. details :—" The affair of Bleda has been at- tended with consequences of such a serious nature, as to ruder the roods impracticable ; and, in order to proceed from Sidi Ferruch to Algieai, a very strong escort is of absolute necessity. Five soldiers were massacred while escorting two carts to Torre Chico. " It appears that the submission of the Algerines wa s not bincere. There is now nothing but treachery all around us, within and without. The Aga of the Bey of Constantine, who resides at Bona, has asked for a gar rison of 4,000 men, in order to his safety. Other towns blve. also made the same request. This, however, is no thing but an artifice to disperse the French Army, and destroy it while divided. kis reported that many armed Arabs have endea voured to get into Algiers under various pretexts. - 91( i . • -! - , , w.;1';,-.v ~ _ 1 -1 - _: • - - V fr .":; - -- / •-•`• - gr,t7::::. oz. • -..-": \ ,''re,", ---*: :!• . - Ft , / 1, 7(44 :, A'. ...1-54Tz! _,..0.-- :i• l u t i t ,, .., lif • .r-SJW l 41 s " - .--..e-,..,..2:9 L I !

"Admiral DU I' ERRE wished the Der to go first of all to France, where he would have obtained passports to any other country." PRIVATE LETTER. PARIS Aus. 18. On Monday the King, accompanied by M. Fontaine, architect, visited the Louvre, and had a long conference on the plan and means of completing that grand edifice. It is said that a design, presented by M. Fontaine some time ago, to hide the irregularities of the Louvre, by a circular gallery in the Palace du Carrousel, will be exe cuted, and that orders will be speedily issued to corn inence the works. Yesterday the King transacted busi ness with the Ministers of War, Justice, the Marine, and Foreign Affairs. His Majesty afterwards received deputations from the Society of Agriculture, the Royal Academy of Medicine, the Advocates of the Royal Courts of Paris, the Professors and Pupils of the Royal College of Henry IV. and the National Guards of Orleans, who were joined by several officers of the line, and headed by the deputies of their department. On Monday the Keeper of the Seals went to the Palace of the Chamber of Peers, for the purpose of depositing among the archives of the chamber, the ordonnance of the 13th inst. which determines the names and titles which the Princes and Princesses of the Royal Family are to bear in future. This urdonnance was copied in full on the registers of the civil state of the Royal Fa mily, and minutes were drawn up, to attest the deposit and copy, in the presence of the Grand Refendary. There was no sitting of the Chamber of Peers yester day. The Grand Refendary has availed himself of this suspension of sittings, to cause the necessary alterations to be made in the Hall, in order to admit the public, as at the Chamber of Deputies. A gallery has been built round the Hall; and two rows of benches afford room for the accommodation of nearly 200 persons. The gallery for the Journalists is on the left side of the gallery, and every convenience will be afforded to them. The Editors of Newspapers have an entrance separate from that of the public ; and below the gallery are tribunes for the Deputies, the Diplomatic Body, and the sons of Peers. The Prefect of Police has issued the following notice : " Evil-disposed persons, whose character and mission are known, have to-day again endeavoured to excite dis turbances among the workmen ; but these brave men, who well know that the maintenance of order is the only means of preserving the benefits of their victory, have every where rejected their offers with disdain, and ar rested six of them, who have been conducted to the Pre fecture of Police. The Prefect has examined them, and found that three had been tried for robbery, and one had already suffered the punishment of 12 years' imprisonment. Such an example should suffice to put the workmen on their guard against these agitators, sent among the people by their enemies, who, enraged by their defeat, seek to re venge themselves upon their conquerors." Several impor tant regulations, calculated to pacify the apprehensions ex cited by the demands of the working classes, have been made by the Government and the Municipal Council. All public works are to be immediately resumed. A grant of five millions of francs has been made by the government to the city. This sum will be devoted to commencing new works, as well as to carrying on those already begun, and will employ a great number of labourers now idle.— Amongst other works to be completed, is the triumphal arch at the Barriere de l'Etoile, which is a great gigantic building, and has had for some time a most ludicrous ap pearance, with only two or three masons employed ups it. When I have asked the cause of so few being em ployed upon such a stupendous work, the masons have shook their heads, and said, " that there was no money to go on with it—all was swallowed up in the expedition to Algiers !" A special committee has also been appointed to confer with the principal manufacturers, as to the best means of affording employment to the industrious who are at present in great want of occupation : and, in order to aid the National Guard and the troops of the line in main taining tranquillity and order, it is proposed to form a new corps from among the citizens, to be specially charged with the police of the city, and who will receive pay. The Moniteur contait;i7TOTar Ordonnance, dated the 13th inst. appointing a commission of three members, who are charged to take an exact account of all property, moveable and immoveable, forming part of the civil list, to provide for its preservation, and to limit all expenses to such as are absolutely necessary for keeping it in re pair and condition. Count Montalivert, M. Schonen, and M. Duvergier de Hauranne are the Commissioners. The Commander of the first Military Division has issued the following order :—" Conformably to the or ders of the Minister of War, the Lieutenant-General commanding the First Military Division directs all officers of every rank, who are now in Paris without legal autho risation, to retire to their respective homes, or join the corps to which they severally belong. All officers who have been dismissed, and have not their domicile in Paris, will immediately retire to their respective departments, unless they have permission from the Minister of War to remain. In this case they will, within twenty-four hours, present themselves at the head-quarters of the First Mili tary Division, No. 1, Rue de Lille, and there submit to inspection their leave of absence or permissions." On Monday the Court of Caseation held a sitting for the purpose of its members taking the oath of fide lity to the King and the Constitutional Charter. Two of its Members, M. Pardessus and M. Henri Lariviere, gave in their resignation. When the Judges had taken their seats, Monsieur Mourre, Procureur-Gene ral, rose and prefaced his oath by a speech, in which he declared, that a Prince, whose noble qualities could never be called in question—a Prince who had liberated Greece, and put down the piracy that had infested Eu rope, humbled Kings, and afflicted Christianity—would, in future history, fill an honourable page ; and that he felt himself warranted in anticipating this just homage, by expressing his grief for the misfortunes of Charles X. After alluding to the late events, which the Procureur attributed to the short-sightedness of Ministers, who had mistaken fury for firmness, anti declaring that the na tion, having, by an immense majority, applauded the change of dynasty, from which he was convinced hap piness would ensue, he called upon the Court to administer the oath. The President, who abstained from any declaration of his sentiments, then di rected the Officer of the Court to read the oath, which was afterwards sworn by all the Members present. Signs of disapprobation were shown when Messrs. Avoine de Chanteriene and Rives took the oath. M. Piet pronounced the words " I swear it," in so low a tone that be could scarcely be heard. M. quequet said, "In hatred to anarchy I swear it." M. Guichard, senior, President of the order of Advocates, prefaced his' loath by saying, " From the motives so nobly avowed by the Procureur-General, and persaaded that it is the only means to escape from the horrors of anarchy, I swear it." On the names of M. Odilot, Barrot, and M. Isam bert being called, the audience manifested approbation. The several officers having been sworn, the Court ad journed. The Court of Accompta also met on Monday in a general assembly to take the oath at the hands of their president, M. Barbe Marbois. One of the Mem bers of the Court only, M. 3osso de Beauvoir, abstained from taking the oath. In all the fortified places and principal towns of France, the accession of Louis Philip to the throne has been an nounced by salutes of 101 guns ; and tho satisfaction of all ranks of the people has been testified by grand enter tainments and illuminations. A letter of the 9th inst. from Munich states, " In all our public places, the va lour and moderation of the French people are lauded to the skies. If the holy alliance were still in existence, and inclined to preach a crusade in order to sustain the cause of the Bourbons, they would not find a single soldier to join it." The Prefect of the Seine has appointed a Committee to receive and examine claims from all persons who suf fered loss or damage, or who furnished supplies to the Parisians during the late events, with a view to grant them indemnities. Two ex-officers of the Gendarmes, and a young Priest in disguise, were arrested yesterday in the act of addressing a crowd, with a view to excite them to disturbance. The young priest was very severely handled, and with difficulty was conveyed to a place al l security. The priests seem at present out of favour, and their influence on the wane. The Municipal Council of Paris have decided that the chapel erected on the site of the old opera house, shall be appropriated to receive the remains of the victims of the late glorious contest, which are to be collected from all the places where they have been buried. Ther names will be inscribed on tablets of black marble in the interior of the chapel, which is to bear in front an inscription expressive of the gratitude of the nation. It is to be surrounded with iron rails, and adorned with grassplats and fountains. On Monday night, an immense crowd assembled round the church of St. Eustache, to witness the disinterment of the bodies of nearly 100 individuals who had fallen in the late conflict, and were deposited in the vaults of that church. It appears that on Wednesday of the great week, numbers of the citizens were shot by the troops iu the rue du Jour and adjoining streets, and their bodies carried into the church, until an opportunity should offer of transporting them to some of the public cemetries ; but from the difficulties presented to this ar rangement by the numerous barriers in the streets, and the intense heat of the weather rendering it impossible to keep them for any length of time above ground, with a due regard to the health of the neighbourhood, it was de termined to lift the pavement stones of the Church, and to convert the vaults beneath into their final resting place. This was accordingly done; but notwithstanding every precaution to prevent bad effects arising from such a mass of corrupting matter under the building, the noxious effluvia became so intolerable, on Sunday last, that it was deemed necessary to remove the bodies on the following night. The operation was a hideous one, as many of them were in a state of rapid de composition. Among the remains thus disinterred were several of the Swiss Guards—and four females. It is reported that the visit of Count Pozzi di Borgo to Count Molt', was made in the name of the Diplomatic Body, to request the Minister not to publish certain let ters found among the papers of the Foreign Department, between Charles X. and several Diplomatists—these letters being of a nature to endanger the peace and security of Europe, as well as the honour of some high personages. This is not likely. Russia has taken little trouble in counselling Charles X.—She would even be, to a certain extent, interested in exposing the two Powers who are thought to hare exerted influ ence in the decision of the ex-King. According to snot' er rumour, the Ambassador had taken upon himself to assure France of the support of Russia, lest the new Government should form an alliance with England, where the cause of liberty has met with so much sympathy. Count Pozzi di Borgo is an able man; and as soon as he found that Prussia, the intimato ally of Russia, pro nounced herself against the lost cause of Charles X. he made no hesitation in taking upon himself a semi-official step, which was, moreover, covered by the pretext of a former intimacy with Count Mole.—Courier Francais. Among the papers found at the Tuileries is a curious document written by the ex-King. It is a plan for the formation of the several battalions of the Guards and the Line. The following is its basis :—The peasant (this is the expression of the original) is to furnish privates, and occupy the ranks of sub-officers to that of Adjutants; the Burgeois can in future only aspire to the rank of Captain ; but the superior rank of the Staff are to be con fined to such of the old and new Noblesse, as had given during the elections proofs of religious and monarchical principles. Thus the good times of the ancien regime were dawning upon the army. We should have ead officers of fortune, a corps of noble cadet; in one word, all the abuses from which the glorious revolu tion of 1789 had delivered _us.—Courier Francais. The intriguers and busy bodies, whose schemes are disappointed by a legal government, are employing their last resources, namely, falsehood, calumny, and alarm. Our foreign correspondence mentions false reports spread in neighbouring countries, with an activity which attests that of the flight of unworthy citizens, who have quitted France, as they are accustomed to do, at the approach of danger. Yesterday morning the Fsuxbourg, St. An toine, was thrown into alarm by reports of a massacre in the Champs Elysees ; and the Champs Elysees was alarmed by rumours of bloody scenes in the quarter of the public schools. There is no truth in any of these reports. From quarter to quarter, in quiries have been made on the spots mentioned, and the imposition has been discovered. One single in stance interrupted the general good order, namely, the narrow escape of the Colonel of the Sapeurs-Pompiers.— Paris is tranquil; and even the workmen united to lend their assistance at those points where disturbances were reported to hare broken out, and to support the National Guards, in case of need, against the intended mobs. As to the intention of breaking machines, an explana tion has taken place: reason has been listened to ; the free dom of industry will be respected, and the workmen themselves exercise a kind of police, in order to preserve the glory of the Great Week free from stain.—Le Temps. Panegyric of Charles X. before the Court of Cessation. Twenty days have scarcely elapsed, since the mas sacres sanctioned by Charles X. and already the sanctu ary of justice has resounded with the praise of that King, who has perjured himself and lost his power ! Yes : this day, before the first court of the kingdom, M. Mourre, Attorney-General, has celebrated the noble qualities of Charles X ; deplored his misThrtunes ; and said, that he attributes to him the glory of the French army in Africa, and that it will obtain for him an honourable mention in the page of history ! How can any one contain thei► indignatio►►, on hearing such panegyric pronounced i►► the very city which still smokes with the French blouEl, caused to flow by this worthy rival of Charles the XIII. And, nevertheless, will it be believed, that the first President, Fortelle, remained dumb and insensible on his chair? lie thought it not necessary to make use of his discretionary power to suppress this odious outrage to be made of our fellow citizens. But will this scandal be the only one we shall have to groan under ? Ought we not to expect that we shall have to submit to more fatal consequences, from MI obstinate support of a Magistracy in hostility with th actual order of things? It is said that, at Dijon, a Pre sident, on receiving the oitl► of the new Attorney-Ge neral, has expressed his sorrow at not seeing on his se t itis4 predtcessor. These are the sad rewards of a fatal resolution, which is protested against from all parts T..ese are the deplorable consequences of the want of foresight in deliberation, the result of which will tend t., place the conqueror at the mercy of the conquered. --- Constitutionnel. At the moment of the attack on the Tuilleries, on tho 29th of July, some men placed on the Pont Royale, were firing upon the people, and this movement operated as a diversion, which suspended the attack for some little time. It was reported at the time that these men were part of the King's b. dy guard in disguise. This imputation has been strengthened by books which have come under our notice, and from which one of our edito►s was employed yesterday im making extracts.—Journal de Paris of this dug, Aug. 18. CHAMBER OP DEPUTIES. Auo. 17. M. Destutt de Tracy expatiated with great ability on a proposition for abolishing the penalty of death. M. Montigny opposed this subject being taken into consi deration at present, conceiving that there were other amendments of the penal code that were much more ur gent. Gen. Lafayette then rose and sail, " I conceive, dif fering with my hon. colleague, that the abolition of the penalty of death is a new principle, or rather a senti ment that ought to be at once examined, It is no new idea that is laid before : the abolitiott of this pe nalty has been called for at every period.; it wa.4 demanded by some highly respectable .Members of the Constituent Assembly, by Adrian Duport, it was de ' mended by the father of our Honourable Friend, the au thor of "The Commentary on Montesquieu," how deeply have we all to regret that it had not been abolished ages back. It is in the present day loudly called for in the United States of America. From this, Gentlemen, you will perceive that many have formed a decided opinion upon the subject. For my own part, I shall demand the abolition of the penalty of death, until I am con vinced that human judgment is infallible. What fright ful use of this penalty was made during our for mer Revolutions ! The reflection fills my soul with horror. No man, I believe, ever made use of it during these disastrous tunes, without afterwards wishing it were possible he could redeem with his own blood the condemnations in which ho had joined. But our present Revolution has a character of generosity as well as of patriotism, and it would adorn its commencement were it to consummate this great act of humanity. I therefore vote for its being taken into consideration." The Chamber decided in the affirmative. PARIS STOCK EXCHANGE, AC6.17, Five o'CLocx. —The market has been far from animated, but the price of Stocks has, nevertheless, experienced an improve ment. Money bargains have been pushed ; but as there were many buyers, this circa tance exerted no unfa vourable influence upon quotations. Spanish have been more in favour than for some days past, and both the Rentes Perpetuelles and the Cortes Bonds have risen considerably. In the latter, business to a great extent has been transacted within a few days, and speculator. seem convinced that they will be acknowledged, in whole or in part, by the Spanish Government. For money, the 5 per Cents. have risen 15c; the 3 per Cents. 5c ; Cortes, 2 ; Rentes Perpetuelles, 1. The 4 per Cents. have fallen 50c ; Neapolitan, 80c ; Haytian, 30fr; and Guebliard's, 1.

POSTED AT THE NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICAN (Ca FEE-110USE " COWES, Aua. 19. " The American ship, Charles Carroll, and Great Britain, arrived here yesterday, with the ex-King of France and suite on board, escorted by a French frigate and a cutter, and reported at the Custom-house for orders. During the day the Port Admiral of Ports mouth came and had a communication with the frigate . Some of the part• have been looking at the seat of the late Lord Seymour's Castle for a residence, and they fury expect permission to reside in this country. To-day the females have gone on a party of pleasure to the back of the island. The ex-King has not yet been on shore." PORTSMOUTH, Aug. 19.—When the Ex-King of France and suite arrived here on Tuesday, we could du no more than report it, every thing being in a state of confusion, and we thought it more prudent to be silent, than give you contradictory reports. The authorities here having refused their landing, the ships proceeded to Cowes the same evening, and arrived there at midnight, when several of the suite landed; but the Mayor of Newport having refused to permit the ex-King to land there in any other way than in • private capacity, this he refused doing, conse quently remained on board the American ship Great Britain. No one knows what his future movements will be. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
