The Diplomatic Correspondence with St. Petersburgb and London is still very active.

PARIS, Dac. IL A Journal announces today, that Al. Serrieys de Mayriaboo le appointed Director of the Police and of the establishment (peas - net) in the Department of the Interior. This nomination will have the approbation of all Royalists, and of all men who can appreciate uprightness of heart and purity of sentiments, and that political courage which is now so rare, and which in France is always sure of conciliating general esteem. It was for the Minister who has carried this virtue so far to pay it such a tribute. It is believed that the Ordinance, announcing the nomination of M. Serrieys de Maytinbac to the post of Director of the General Police, will appear on Monday. From the . Constitutionnel. - - COUR ROYALE OF PARlS.—Paassom Dv N. Sonoma. TRIAL OF THE COURRIER FRANCAIS, Dec. This trial Involves a question of the highest importance relative to religions liberty. " Does the passage referred to you (said 111. Deberain, the reporting Judge) contain the negation of the Chris tian Faith? and if this negation results from the terms of the article, does it constitute the crime of outrage against the reli gion of the State, and against other Christians equally recognised by the law? In the passage inculpated the author is giving an account of the picture of the Consecration, by M. Gerard, and he says, " The immortal pictures of the Last Supper, of the Transfiguration, and of the Communion of Saint Jerome, will re main chefs-d'arevre even when the Christian faith shall be com pletely forgotten, if the durability of their fragile materials shall allow them to be so long preserved." Such were the words for which N. Chatelain was sentenced to three months' imprisonment, and to pay a fine of 600 francs. After hearing an eloquent pleading by Id. Merilbou, and a personal defence by M. Chatelain, the Court came to the following decision on the merits of the case : " Considering that it results from the national rights of the French, consecrated by the Charter, that they are at liberty to pub lish and to print their opinions, and that each is at liberty equally to profess his religion under the single condition of laws to repress the abuse of these liberties; "Considering that an opinion published concerning a religious creed, and which would constitute a want of faith in that creed, may appear to be a misfortune in the eyes of those who profess that creed, but only becomes guilty when it degenerates into insults and outrages, either to that creed, or to those who profess it ; " Considering that Chatelain, in f ing an event which Is Impossible, has not used expressions, nor indulged in reflections or allusions insulting and offensive to the Christian Religion ; " The Court discharges Chatelain of the condemnation pro nouneed against him; and sends him sway freed from the Charge." Marks of satisfaction were immediately displayed by the audi ence, but Immediately repressed by the Bar, without it being ne cessary for the president to interfere. FRENCH FUNDS, Doc. IS.

" MEXICANS !—The President of the Republic con gratulates himself that, during the period of his Go- vernment, the obstinate enemies of independence, should be finally undeceived; that friendly nations may be confirmed in the favourable sentiments entertained of us, and that those who waver on the subject of our recogni tion, may now be convinced that the people of Mexico are capable of sustaining their independence, and the federal institutions to which they have sworn. Fellow country men Long live our independence ! Long live the Mexican Confederacy ! (Signed) Mexico, Sept. 89 1829. " VICENTE *GUERRERO." We publish the following report of the state of Mexico, confirmatory of our former intelligence, as we had already seen letters to the Ist of November. Our readers may rely on the strict accuracy of .the information which we here furnish ; and indeed, on all that we ever give—in our leading articles—on the subject of South American affairs. Letters from Mexico, to the 9th 'of October, announce 1 that ' every thing there was going on prosperously. The Minister of Finance, M. ZAP ALA, had been re moved—his porte-feuille having been given provision ally to the Minister of the Interior—and every body was hourly looking for the departure of M. POINSETT, the American Envoy, against whom the outcry was universal. It appears that the government is seriously occupied in re-organising a substantial finance, and that various re forms are projected in the administration. Never, in fine, has the political horizon in Mexico appeared so serene and cloudless, as it does now after the happy and glorious event of Tampico. General SANTA AN VA, at the beginning of November, was at Xalapa, the capital of Vera Cruz, tranquilly discharging his functions as Pro vincial Governor. General BRAVO'S arrival had given great confidence, and has been the means of approximating the two parties in the State.

We have authority for stating most unequivocally, that there is no truth whatever in the report that Dox PEDRO has any intention to recognise the usurper of his daugh ter's throne. - In our comments on the letters of 0. P. Q. the Paris Correspondent of a Morning Paper, we did not hesitate to express our suspicions that he was an agent of M. DE POLIO r: AC. These suspicions are fully confirmed by the Vlth and Vllth Letters, which contain violent attacks on the Orleans family, and the liberals generally. We shall notice them at more length to-morrow. We perceive by contemporary prints, that LordDACRE has just set an example to landlords, which—in these distressing times—it is to be hoped will find imitators. Not deeming that lie had done enonvh, in reducing his rents twenty-five per cent, he has even remitted their payment altogether, 'till Lady-day next, a period of three months. This last indulgence is almost even more valuable than the abatement, since it gives the farmers a chance of improved markets for their corn : while, on the other hand—if they were compelled to thresh it out, and sell it at the present depressed prices—they would in many instances find themselves involved in ruin, notwithstanding so large a reduction. It must be ad-, mitted, also, that this generosity on the part of the Noble LORD, is quite as prudent as it is feeling ; for the time is rapidly advancing—it is of no use to shut our eyes to it—when the doers of such actions will reap their quite commensurate reward, ih the adherence of a grateful tenantry. We cannot too strenuously urge upon our great landowners the policy—if only selfishly con sidered—of imitating such an example as Lord Da c RE'S. We happen to know, that that Noble LORD—in acting as he has done—has only followed up the impulses of his natural benevolence : but it is proper to remind others, whose cold dispositions may need a more worldly excita tion to their duty, that the recollection of such expe rienced kindness in a season of trouble will ensure its reciprocation, when the LANDED INTEREST, perhaps, " lies howling I" - Dutch Papers are received this morning; but their contents are nowise interesting.

We understand, that on the 15th a pretty violent north wind having driven the ice towards the moth side of the gulf, between St. Petenburgh and Cronstadt, ten foreign vessels, eight lighters, and a steam boat, left the capital and arrived here : the latter, and another steam boat, which could not get through the is on the nth of November, returned to St. Peters burgh the same day, with five boats which it took in tow. The neat day the communication was again interrupted by the ice; and on the 15th, in the evening, four men came on foot from Oranlmbaurn ; but the neat day all communication became Im possible, a very high south west wind having broken up the ice. On the 20th, an English ship, which had just ar rived at Cronstadt, and had penetrated ten went. through the ice, was obliged to stop between Crosses& and the Merchants' port, where it was necessary to open a passage far it by sawing through the ice. The Mall from St. Petersburgh arrived here on the 25th, for the first time; and twenty laden vessels, which bad ' remained some days in the road, ending It absolutely impossible to put to sea, began yesterday to cut the. ice, to return to the port where they will winter.—Petersburgh Jumada, Ike. 5. PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. LISBON, Mc, S. Since my last, MIGUEL has returned suddenly from Pinheiro, under pretext of being present at the examina tion of the pupils at the Collegio dos Nobres, having re mained only seven days absent. During his stay in the country, numbers flocked to his residence, to complain of the misery they are suffering; and begging him to apply a remedy. The whole of these poor people were dismissed with the following characteristic reply—" go about your business, I came here to amuse myself, and not to hear of your miseries!" All the Artisans and labourers of the arsenal went to Queloz in a body on the Ist, and tumultuously demanded their arrears, adding, that they would not work any longer, unless something was immediately paid, as their families were starving ever since the bank had discontinued its advances. Alarmed at their menaces, Miguel pro mised every thing; upon which the credulous assemblage retired ; but they had scarcely resumed their work, when the ringleaders were seized and thrown into prison. The notorious rector of BARKEIRO, the first who, act ing under BASTOE, raised an outcry against the c harter in 1827, when SALDAMIIA was dismissed from the mi nistry, and afterwards figured so conspicuously as a false witness in the murderous trials of that period, was buried on Monday last, amidst the imprecations of his congre gation, of whom he had also been the scourge since the usurpation. IMPORTANT FROM LISBON. We have been favoured with the following extracts of private letters, from one of the first commercial houses in the City : LISBON, Dsc. S. Our Government may almost be said to be in a state of bankruptcy. The people in some of the public works have, for two or three days, refused to work without being paid their arrears. However, with fair promises, &c. they have been induced to return to their occupations ; but this cannot last long, for they will discover they have been duped, and the consequences concot be foreseen, for should they succeed in getting paid, the whole army, which is also in arrears, and much discontented, will no doubt follow the example : there is not a shilling in the Treasury. Exchange on London 441, little doing. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM MEXICO, Of 28TH OCT. At present there is no British ship of war on the east coast, but on the west coast the Sapphire sloop of war is about to take on board specie and bullion for England. No apprehensions may be entertained of persons and pro perty of foreigners in any case: should changes take place in the Government, it will not have any effect on the public tranquillity. It does not appear as yet, that any Contract has been made to import goods, intended to be prohibited after the 17th Nov . The Bolanos Mining Company will no doubt continue to remit to England a large sum monthly. The United Mexican and Anglo Mexican Mining Company continue tbeir operations with increased prosperity.

THE KING. WINDSOR, Dgc. 19. His MAJESTY, during his lei sure, has for a length of time visited daily th e. de and picturesque cottage purchased from Mrs. Bno A ',- HERD, which stands in one of the most lovely situation., in the Great Park ; and since the plantations have either been pruned or cut down, both in its immediate neigh bourhood and in the distance, the view is extensive and rich. The interior of the house is entirely renovated, and the furniture wholly new, selected by the KING him self. , It has been reported that the house and grounds, when complete, are to become the residence of the Duke and Duchess and Prince GEORGE of CUMBERLAND. We believe there Is not the slightest ground for believing that story. Either Lord and Lady MOUNTCHARLES, or Lord and Lady STRATHAV air, are the personages intend ed for the honour of the royal and magnificent grant. The KING and his Court are preparing to quit the Cot tage for the Castle, where the apartments are quite ready. There are but few sleeping rooms, in addition to the Kum's, and those assigned to the Duke of CUMBER LAND and the Duke of CLARENCE, on the first floor, and which, in the absence of the Royal Dukes, will be occu pied by persons immediately about his MAJESTY ; but the upper chambers are numerous, and fitted up with all necessary conveniences. These will be given to the noble guests, who it is the Royal pleasure shall be in vited to the Grand Christmas Banquets, which, if the con templated arrangements be carried into effect, will be more magnificent than any that have occurred in our time. In addition to the Court Circle, all his MAJESTY'S Mi nisters and their Ladies, the Foreign Ambassadors, and those who are usually known as the King's pirate friends (if that phrase be permitted), are to be invited. The Duke of DEVONSHIRE, the Earl of EGRIMONT, the Earl and Lady COWPER, and Lord sad Lady Gs As - max, are included amongst the latter. The KING'S general health has not been better for many years ; and his good spirits, cheerfulness, and urbanity to all who com pose the delightful Royal circle, are quite equal to his health.

The Neapolitan Minister transacted business on Satur day, at the Foreign Office, with the Earl of ABERDEEN. Mr. V. FITZGERALD left town on Saturday for Rich mond. We understand th it the accounts from the mines in Mexico are, on the whole, highly favourable, and that the Bolanos is still clearing one hundred thousand dol lars monthly. Saturday night the weather became intensely cold; yesterday we had a keen frost ; and at this hour, snow falls thick and heavy. MARRIAGE IN FRANCE.---Min Frances Ellinor Allen, niece of Lady Mahon, of Hull, Yorkshire, to Mons. De Thiery, Chateau de Thiery, a Bondy, pros de Paris. The amiable and accomplished young lady pos sessed a fortune of 5,0001. The gentleman is heir to his father's title and estates. Mr. PEEL is forming a collection of paintings, con sisting of the portraits of the Ministers of this country, painted by LAWRENCE. The Gentlemen connected with the Ward of Vintry, who gave the other day a sumptuous dinner to Alderman WINCHESTER, at the Albion Tavern, commemorative of his triumph over his opponent, presented at the same time to the worthy Alderman a magnificent piece of plate, of the value of three hundred guineas, highly embossed and ornamented, and on which is beau tifully engraved an appropriate in inscription. We understand on the best authority, that the bar barous practice prevails at a village in Norfolk, of refusing the rites of sepulture according to the Church of England to persons who die of the small pox. An instance occurred last week in the parish alluded to, which we really think ought to be ex plained by the Clergyman there ; a farmer's son, aged about thirty—by name Ca a was Pm:Hl—died on Wednesday night of that disease, and was buried on the Thursday at midnight without any form or ceremonial of Church service. It is true, the Clergyman on the following day read ove► his closed grave some passages from that part of the Liturgy, which relates to the Burial of the Dead; but the Intention of that service cannot be said to have been so fulfilled, since the dead had been buried without nay prayers at all. Tho is a very shocking and unseemly custom, and we do hope that the Ministeiof the parish in question will be able to clear himself of all sanction, or participation in the traneectiou. .. L'.v.
