P wir, :LT:* ' • T" the Prussian with temerity, in having attacked a French corps with a very inferior number; adding, that al though the Prussians might not love the French, they. at least ought to esteem them: After this short con versation: the Grand Duke made e slight inclination of the head, and followed the Princess into the other apartment. Count Frohberg soon afterwards returned, and in formed us that the carriage was ready. We imme diately got into it, and set out for Auma. I fiiund my new companion very kind-hearted and intelligent, a little sanguine and hasty in his temper, but evidently must susceptible of gratitude and friend. ship. His countenance was pale, but animated. Out. conversation was carried on in English ; and he in quired with much eagerness after his British friends. I had the satisfaction of being presented to his amiable widow, when at Munich, in 1816. The Countess in. formed me, that her husband had alluded to this ad venture, and expressed much kindness towards me; and she was so obliging as to present to me a ring, which had belonged to.bim. Before we had been many minutes in tlie carriage, he asked me whether I was ac quainted with Lady Louisa Manners (the present Coun tess of Dysart), accompanying his inquiry with a cor dial encomium. I was unable at that time (though now more fortunate) to answer that question in the affirmative; but I asked the Count in return, whether he knew her Ladyship's son-in-law, my intimate, and excellent friend, Colonel Duff (now Earl of Fife). As soon'as I mentioned that I was a friend of Colonel Doffs, he shook me by the band with the greatest war milt; and our common regard for my distingui.hed countryman (a regard in which all who know him so largely sympathize) not only created a link of attach. meta between us, but mainly tended to render his ex ertions in my behalf more cordial and more unremitting. We met, in the dark, a long row of waggons and artillery, at a narrow part of the road, where two car riages could not well pass abreast; and our carriage was obliged to draw up in a field, until the waggons and other conveyances bad proceeded. It was in vain that my friend, the Count, dismounted angrily from the caniage, and authoritatively desired the drivers to draw up on one side, and allow our carriage to pass, telling them who he was, where he was going, and that he was-expected to sup with the Emperor. They coolly laughed at all his earnestness; and one of them told him that he was afraid his supper would be very cold b.f. ire he got to his journey's end. The Count did not recover his good humour until some time after we had quilted the scene of our deten tion. The spectacle around cis was most interesting. A number of fires was kindled in various directions, around which we perceived the French soldiers sing ing, shouting, sleeping, or cooking their victuals. The Count was remarkably communicative; but without attempting to deail many interesting facts which he narrated, I cannot avoid recording one speech of his, which remained deeply impressed on my mind. I mentioned that I had left the Prussian army in as high spirits, and as confident of victory, as the French; and that I therefore thought the issue of the contest taaler doubtful. " A decisive haule r " replied be," will be fought before' many days have elapsed; and I Will bet you sixty Napoleons to one, that the victory will be ours. Yoh say that the Prussians are in high spirits; but on what is their confidence grounded? Not surely in respect for the talents of their General—not on the remembrarrte of exploits of their own, nor in love for the service in which they are so it used? The French, on the other hand, adore their leader, who has so often conducted them to victory :—their own past achieve ments iaspire them with confidence in themseltes they ale attached to a service in which they are well aware that the meanest and most friendless may ac quire reputation and advancement. The Emperor knows their character well, and has employed every means to conciliate affection to his person, as well as to enforce obedience to his authority. No service is permitted to pass unnoticed or unrecompensed. He is end , wed with an excellent memory, and is often known to address even a private soldier or subaltern Officer, whom he remembers to have seen at Austerlitz or Ma rengo, reminding them of their former good conduct, and calling upon them to act up to it in future. By such means, he not only captivates the heart of the person so noticed, but excites emulation on the part of all who witnessed such a scene, and who long, by fu ture prowess, to attain a similar distinction. The very institution tithe Legion of Honour, which is attainable by all classes, has greatly increased his popularity, and is become a general object of military ambition. In phort, I may say, that no General was ever more sta . ()ions to captivate the affections, and win the confidence of his a:my ; nor was any ever more successful." • I do not •pretend to say that these are the exact w,nrcls of Count Frohberg, 'but they express his semi. ments w ithout any exaggpitknt. He cherished a warn attachment for the person and character of Napoleon . ; juts I am peoppded,that,his opinion, though somewhat biassed by his feeling, was founded on personal know., 10E, Mat. accurate inforination which hjauk end Statlnn afprded so to ornftwit tiffig!NElo. lTh : 66 ." 4 "'" i) - . • f .ii• 1 c . 1 . 51 OVA! ~ 'S,T•••• a•r i " 1 ... 1 ' - '7 41111 "'"7- - A - • • .',7l,f`• • •- •%,PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.. PARIS, Abates sus. In the discussion to which the trial of the Amnia:du aesuwerce by the Chamber of Deputies gave occasion, some orators maintained that every person had the right of petitioning the King to dissolve the present Chamber, and consequently of explaining the grounds of the peti tion. 'This idea having obtained general circulation, has not remained unfruitful. Two hundred merchants o flP, u i s , all of them respectable, have, in fact, presented a petition cc; the King, beseeching him to dissolve. the present Chamber of Deputies. The reasons which t! ey give for their prayer are—that the Chamber has ceased to be the organ of. France, or of the defence of French interests;and that it ,endangers the public tranquillity, as well es the existence of the Crown.

Yesterday the Funds rose 1 per cent. without any assignable cause to justify such an advance, and when they had attained their height, they were driven down again as rapidly to nearly the price at which they opened. That returning confidence in the commercial world had, and must have, an influence in raising the funds is natural, but nothing yesterday occurred to throw a damp Son the present prospects of the country, and yet the funds fell again, which is either a proof that the advance was not a natural one, or that the fluctua tions were the effect of speculations. Today the Funds are depressed, and some persons in the City, who for every why will have a wherefore, attribute it to what they call the sudden recall of Mr. Secretary CANNING from the country, but what are the facts ? Mr. CANNING, whose attention to the duties of his office, is only equalled by his domestic affections, wished to visit a dear relative at Bath; and with that view left town on Tuesday, and travelled to Marl• borough, where he slept. Early next mornirg he pro• ceeded to Bath, where, atter passing the day and night there, and having executed the object of his journey, he set out on Thursday morning to return to London, and proceeded as far as Sal: Hill, where he arrived at six o'clock, to dinner. Not intending to travel farther that day, and having fixed his return to town for Friday, Mr. CANNING determined on passing the night at Salt Hill, and while there his private Secretary, Mr. STAPYLTON, arrived in consequence of some busi ness having occurred at the Foreign Office during the absence of the Right Hms. Secretary. The business, which, we.believe, related to dispatches from the Duke of WELLINGTON at St. Petersburgh, was not so urgent as to render it necessary Mr. CANNING should alter his arrangements ; he therefore passed the night at Salt hill, and being near Windsor, he rode to the Royal Lodge, and at an audience transacted the necessary. business with his MAJESTY. Now what is there, we will ask, in all this, to affect the Funds, or excite the least speculation in the City ? Nothing certainly. Haytlan Journsls . to the 16th of January have beers received. 0(4 of them contains an account of the opening of the sessiOn of the Sable Parliament, on the 10th of January. Among the spectatori of the cere mony were the Consul-General of France, and some French Naval Officers. The PassiOnNT arrived about iiin . so'clock, surrounded with the officers of his staff, at 'the Hall of Assembly, and hav7ng taken the Presiden tial Chair, pronounced a speech, in which he announced the completion of Haytian regeneration by the acknow ledgment of Haytian independence, and defended the policy of the pecuniary sacrifices by which it was Rut.- chased. The President of the Chamber echoed the speech of the Chief Magistrate; and the meeting broke up amid the cries of " Long live tke Republic r “ Long live the President of Hayti !" 'a tl ird, or a fourth of the whole, according as there are one, two, three, or more children, is to be given to the eldest son, in case the father should not have disposed of it before his decease; and this share Is always to be taken from the real property, if it be possible to do so consistintly with the interest of the other children.— If the deceased divided his property in general terms among his children, the same arrangement is still to take effect. The new law, it will be seen, does not assign the whole inheritance to the elder son ; but only provides that the moiety of his property, which a man is allowed by the French Jaws to dispose of by will, shill, in the event of intestacy, be assigned to the elder son, instead of being distributed, as formerly, in equal portions among the children. The law which steers a middle course meets with great opposition. Letters from Spain say, that a new Treaty had been concluded, by which the French troops were to retain possession for several years of Barcelona, Panspelona, Cadiz, and the other places which they now occupy. An order had lately been transmitted from MaJtid to Barcelona to prohibit the issue of any sums from the tre.sury beyond what was absolutely necessary, as all the disposeable money was wanted to pay the Regency of Algiers an indemnity of six millions of !teals which . he claimed and which Spain under her present imbecile Government was not strong enough to refuse. An article from Constantinople,, dated the 25th of February, states, that Lord COCHRANE had arrived at Zante, which excited great alarm among the Mussulmen. —Letters from Constantinople to the end of February state that even at that late period the British Minister had not reached the Turkish capital. Sir Hurisox Lowa was at Constantinople, and attracted much atten tion amongst the Mussolmen and Europeans. Accounts from Corfu confirm the partial defeit of the Captain PACHA by the Greek fleet, and his subsequent depriva tion of the command. It is also said that an Eiglish vessel having attempted to enter Missnlonglii with provisions, had severaly suffered from the Turkish fire. —A great number of Greek beads mad ran bad been sent to Con stantinople, and displayed as the walls and at the gates of the Se raglio; butvasoset-off for these trophies, t►e Greeks had to skew, according to letters from Vienna, the celebrated French Renegado, Colonel Sans, amongst their prisoners, together with the garrison of Trifoliate, whom be commanded. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. We have a hundred reports in the City, in addition to a world of conjectures, about the Revenue. Mr. CANNING'S audience of the KING, the nature of the Duke of WELLINGTON'S dispatches, &c. &c. Among the most prevalent rumours is one that BoLIVA R is dead, and this report has caused South American Securities to fall three per Cent. Another rumour is, that 'the VIGILANT man of war has brought unfavourable news from Mexico, and that the treaty with that tepublic will not be ratified. A third rumour is, that the Por tuguese Regency has demanded the protection of this country against the intrigues of the QUEEN'S party, which is becoming powerful. Though none of these reports are traceable to an authentic source, yet they affect the funds considerably. CHESHIRE ASSIZES. The High Sherif of this county, William Turner, Esq. the ab duction of whose daughter has caused such a sens..tion throughout the country, will make a mist splendid show in the execution of his once during the ensuing Assize. His escort will consist of about forty of his tenantry, mounted, and armed with halberts, superbly finished and burnished,and all the men in completely new clothing. new saddles, bridles, boots, &c. On Saturday (this day) he gives a. public breakfast, at Shrigley Hall, to a vast number of the sur rounding gentry and his friends ; and at eleven o'clock the cavAlc,de will kave the Hall, preceded by trumpeters, buglers, banner-men, and a military band of music.—At Macclesfield the procession will be met by a number of tradesmen of the town, head,d by a band of 1 music ; and after passing through the town, the High Sheriff and his escort will proceed on their way to (beater. THE ARMY. A Division of the 6th Dragoons from Edinburgh passed through Leicester on Thursday, on route to Craterbury. Detachments belonging to the 25th, 36th, and 90th Regiments of Foot arrived in town yesterday morning from Portsmouth, ()a route to join their respective Depots. The Depot of the 9th Regiment of Infantry embarked on the nth alt. at Liverpool, for Dublin. A Detachment belonging to the East India Company Service was ordered to embark yesterday evening at Ittlfingsgate,forGraves end, on route to Chatham. Thursday morning the depot of the 60th, or his Royal Highness the Duke of York's Rifle Corps, under the command of Major Pearce, marched into Weymouth, and are to occupy the barrack., which have been completely refitted for the reception of both cavalry and infantry. Monday, a Troop of the Regiment of the Innitkillen Dragoons took their departure from Blackburn. On the same day, r Troop of the Ist Dragoon Guards arrived, and are expected to rensaiu some time. The 77th Regiment. at present stationed in Edinburgh Barracks. which bad reeceived orders for tbe West Indies, has, we believe, been countermanded for Ireland. The nth Regiment of Foot now occupy the Infantry Glasgow Barracks, in place of the 33d and .50th Reginsents, which embarked last week for Ireland. The King's 2d Regiment of Cheshire Yearn/my Cavalry will march into Chester, on Saturday the 13th Nay, under the command of Colonel the Right Hon. Lord Delamere. and remain on perma nent duty until the 20th May. Thursday, the lath May, the giment will be inspected by a Field Meer of Cavalry. The War-Office is about reducing twenty-two of its clerks, in consequence of the arrear of business of that department being nearly brought to a close. The reduction of the individuals will be voluntary on those selected, and to theig retitement will be added a pension, regulated according to their period of service. Notwithstanding the unexampled depression of trade, the Rothsay cotton mills have not only continued working itt full tithe. but have accumulated no stack, the supply being no more than equal to the demand for the noanufactured artiste.

During the cold and rainy weather, a tall lady was seen walking barefooted on the streets, followed by two tall lacqueys. It was impossible to get the name of this lady. It was said that she was a woman of the town, paid by some Priests for exhibiting this revolting spectacle, and that the two lacqueys were hired for the occasion. Such is the manner in which it is attempted to make the people religious. COLONIAL INTELLIGENCE. HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY, UPPER CANADA, TIMIDAY JANUART 10. " Mon sagacious Sonagrox—We,your Majesty's loyal and dutiful subjects, the Commons of Upper Canada, in provincial Parliament assembled, beg litre item humbly to approach your Majesty upon a subject of the deepest interest, connected with the adminiuration of public justice. We would humbly rrpreaent, th a the Executive Council is appointed by your Maiesty, to advise his Excellency upon the affairs of this province, and that the connexion of Chief Justice with it, wherein he has to advise his Eecelleney upon executive measures, many of which may bear an intimate relation to the judi cial duties he may have thereupon to discharge, is highly inexpeita, tending to embarrass him in his judicial functions, and render ae administration of justice less satisfactory, if not less pure. Your Majesty's faithful Commons tanker humbly represent their deep sense of the expediency of rendering the Judges in this province as of the Crown and of the people as are the Judos et as e therefore humbly beg, most gracious Sovereign, that you 'we he pleased to discontinue to impose upon the Chief Justice a dully eolecompatible with his judicial character, and so ill suited to the rem state of this provinces awl that the Judges, with the approbation of your Majesty, may be rendered as independent of the CreWll mad of the people as are the Judges of England. "JOHN WILSON, Speaker. " OMIIIIIII. House of Assembly, 14th January, 1824." FROM THZ TRINIDAD GUARDIAN, PORT OF SPAIN, JAL tai. We doubt whether it has fallen to, the lot of any Journalist, since the establishment of Colonies in this hemisphere, to communicate intelligence more interest ing, and involving more important results to every class, than we have this day the satisfaction to present to the public in the shape of an order of Government, abolishing all fees hitherto paid by the shippirig in this port to the following o ffi cers :—the Governor's Secre• tary, the Island Secretary, the Naval Officer, the Har bour Master, the Captain of the Sea Fort, the Health Officer, the Inspector of Manifests. Shipping is now relieved from all fees in this port; and this order of Government, in conjunction with the Act of 6 Geo. IV. cap.lo6, redeems in our Colony Mr. Huskision's liberal promise to that effect at the opening of the last Session of Parliament. We feel assured that the other Colonial Legislatures, upon whose decision this arrangement depends, will lose no time in deciding upon its adoption ; and show by their alacrity in following in this instance at least the example of Trinidad, that their backwardness on other occca- sions is not to be attributed to any want of good feeling, bist only to an honest conviction that measures hitherto recommended would never be practically beneficial. If we are requested to specify all the particular ad vantages to be derived from this measure, we beg in reply to ask—Where is the mind that can conceive, or the pen that can detail, All the advantages to be derived by an individual, whose hands are suddenly set at liberty after being long manacled and confined ?—tThere must be advantage in every and the slightest movement. We have always been of opinion that to the colonies at least, the abolition of the fees upon shipping was the 'most important part of that improved system which is now to be carried into operation throughout the empire. Other parte . of it depend in a great degree upon the concurrence of foreign Powers.—this depends upon our selves iline; and were our trade in future to be restricted 'colnmartication between British Ports and 13rf*hcannies,400ilitisdif not hesitate to hail this riea sore al in inestinsibte - idvantage. To the lower classes its belefits will be incalculable; the necessaries of life will no logo. rem in a glut, lockeJ up and rotting in one colony, whilst toMparative famine exists in another in its immediate vicinity : the abundance of the one will noar without difficulty flow into and relieve the wants of the other; and the negro slave may say with heartfelt gratitude, that he has at last been practically benetltted - by an act of the British Government. ~,:f The great house of LitNNZT, GUILLOT, and Co. at Lisbon, has resumed their payments. The St. Vincent's Gazette of the 4th of February, 'states, that a dreadful fire broke out at Barbadoes on the 25th of January. by which fifteen houses in the main street. and about 15Q smaller ones were totally destroyed. Several lives were lost, and a great number of persons entirely' ruined. By the tables of M. gasist., of Weimar, it appears that the population of , the empire of Russia, at the death of Catrnzates 11. in 1796, amounted to about 33,000,000: abtd in 1825, at the death of .4 LILIANDint, in conaequence of conquests from the Turks, and re captures and conquests of dominions in Poland, the; amount was 50,000.000.
