S ~~ i- FRENCH PAPERS. FROM TIM OAZITTE ~ PROM THI CONSTITUTIONNEL. • MADRID, JULY 23.—Piivais Commosingtr. DE IIIANCI4 'MUD AUG. 5. PARIS, Alm 4. 't /gr. illaskisson was at Carlsruhe on the let of Adg.i The Minister of Marine has addressed the following letter to the Commi,sarf of the Marine it Bordeaux, l who has transmitted it to the Chamber of Commerce of . Shut city: " have received notice from 51. Silvestre de Sacy, CONINk of Fromm mGibralter, that three corsairs, under Algerine CAW. are soppoold to have pawed the Straits some days ago, steering t o the mean." . This news was given to M. Silvestre de Sacy by the +Captain of a Sardinian schooner brig, which arrived from Oran. According to the report of this Captais, six corsairs had sailed Irons Algiers, or from Oran, on the ht of this month, vis. a velachero, a felucca, and another very small vessel, but a very good sailer, all three bound to the ocean, and three others, likewise of small force, destined for the East. Captain Collet, commanding the naval force before .Algiers, has himself informed me that four armed fe luccas had been able to escape from that port by elud ing the vigilance of the cruisers during the night, and by their small draught of water.. It is, therefore, important that his Majesty's ships should be informed and receive orders to pursue these Corsairs whereever they may fall in with them. I therefore request you to give instructions accord 101y to the commanders of ships which may be dis patched from EtOrdeaux or may put in there. TheMoniterr of Saturday has a very long article on ,the subject of the simultaneous evacuation of Spain and Portugal by the French and English troops. The writer, ,favourable to this step, conceives that, " in the present state of things, Spain has only one thing to fear—viz. the anarchy of Portugal; the revolution ts.varquished, and will not arise from its ruins: but the anarchy of Portugal is likely to continue a long time, without the only and infallible resource which we shall point out bdow." This resource is, that " Dun Miguel shall enter on the exercise of the Regency, on the day fixed by the Constitution of the country. Every thing would be confirmed and consolidated by this one act ; it is a homage to the new law which he has sworn to ob serve; it is the first step in a constitutional course, because he a ould- declare that he held his title from Or Constitution, and could nut at the same time derive his oira right from it, and disregard the right which it gins to others. We suppose, then, and every thing favours this idea, the frank and faithful execution of the Charter .would be the policy of the Regent. Thus Don Pedro would be without apprehension for the fate of the Char ter which he has given; nothing would oppose the voyage of the young Queen ; and the abdication, it first conditional, would become irrevocable. On the other hand, there would no longer be any ground or pretext for the distrust of Spain or Portugal. In the constitutional event which we wish for, there is a principle of general amelioration, the ruin of the factions in Portugal, a gua-, mice of tranquillity for the Peninsula, and a s saying of , men and money for France. and England. The 25th of October maylrad to all this, and doubtless will do so, if, as we willingly believe, and as his dearest interests' make it his duty, Don Miguel, instructed in the school .-of Kings, becomes fully serhible of the advantages and :orkaigencres of his situation. Ar. present nothing contra- 1 : drat this hope ; the future Regent has taken the oath .fo the Co st tution, and that freely, for lie was at a dis- 1 ' fence from the scene where the parties are engaged, , and not subject to their influence. By the act of be . frothing, Ire has led the way to the solemn pct which is to put an end to all uncertainty, and we do not see that he endeavours to anticipate the moment when his. . - just claims may be brought forward. Some capricious antipathies will not form an obstacle to the exercise of . a constitutional right ; the people will not be the dupes of those men who understand the laws of their country as the Prrtorians did those of Home.' • These conditions being fulfilled, the writer thinks a -long occupation would be useless, the object of all par ties being the peace of the Peninsula and the peace of Europe, which would be secured by the removal of the only cause that can disturb, or inspire a fear of its being -disturbed. " What makes us desire the evacuation of the Penin sula," concludes the writer, if Portugal is secured from anarchy, is:.-that we see no danger for the Penin sula, except in the disorder and anarchy of Portugal." Nothing has been talked of here, since yesterday, but the battle which took place on Friday last at Tres Casas, a small village situated a short distance from the Royal Residence of St. Ildephonso, where the Court is at the present mbment. A band of smugglers, ceclarineros and cerveranos, had a conflict with a detachment of Custom House Officers,' supported by some in fantry and several horse soldiers. The troops would von have been defeated, had not one of the cavalry been dispatched to St. Ildephonso for assistance. Fifty men of the guard were accordingly sent, who, joining the Custom House party, put the smugglers to fl , ght, l and took from them several bales of contraband goods. Nine men were left on the held of battle, amongst -whom there was not one smuggler. The killed con .airted of three soldiers, four Custom House officers, and two Royalist volunteers. This event has made a deep impression on the Court. Far the last two days consi derable alarm has prevailed. The audacity of the smugglers in venturing so near the Royal Residence, has excited general astonishment and indignation. FROM THE COURIER FRANCAIS. PARIS, AucvsT 4. We learn, that according to one of the articles of the Concordat between the Court of Rome and that of the Netherlands, the Philosophical College will be continued, with this ntodifi.:ation, that the candidates for the Pro- tessorships will be presented by the Archbishop of lialyne. or by the• United College of Bishops ; we du lot know positively which.

The ninth anniversary of the birth-day of ,his Royal Highness the second son of the Nat 'hf Orane was celebrated to-day with the usual ceremony. In the parade, which took place' in front of the• Palace on the occasion, the garrison had the honour* of being in spewed by his Majesty in person. His Majesty, who was received with the most unequivocal dmn 'nitration of attachment, was plea,ed to esoyeis his satisfaction in the most gracious m inner. We had flattered our selves that his Majesty would temain here till to-mor row, but he set out this afternoon for the Hague, whence he would proceed with all speed to Brussels; a disap pointment which is the more felt, as it arose, from an accident that has befallen Our beloved Queen.

It is with profound grief we me obliged to announce to our anxious Readers, that we have not a single word of consolation to say to them on the subject of Mr. CANNING'S health. On the contrary, the slender and brittle thread by which his existence hung for some days past, has been wearing away so rapidly for the last twenty-tour hours, that we grievously fear, before the STAR of this day Teaches the hands of Many et our Readers, that thrall will be rent asunder for ever It will be seen by the two following Bulletins, which have been issued since our last, that the language of his medical attendants is in the highest degree disheartening: Soon after seven o'clock yesterday evening Sir Marrnew Tam; sir, Dr. Fazes . , and Dr. Roza.ann, had another consultation too the state of their patient, and afterwards issued the following Bulletin : (corr.)

Precisely at ten o'clo‘k this morning, Mr. Rurr, one of the KtNa's Messengers, arrived at the Foreign Office from Chiswick, with the followii g Bulletin: (covr.)

Such is the public anxiety to ascertain the real state oP.Mr. CANNING'S malady and suffaings, that not withstanJing this early hour a number of well mounted persons, have inquired at the Lodge, having been sent from town for that purpose, and the inquiries of the inhabitants of the village have been numerous indeed, but here every thing is kept in the most profound reciesy, and nothing has transpired in the village which we could state with any'degree of correctness, although a variety of rumours ade flying about. A conbultation of the Physicians has been held, the result of which mill be seen tram the Brllletin. )ore report froth The Duke of DEvonsiitstx is not here, as has been incorrectly stated. His Grace was yesterday in Dethy shire ; and two expresses have been dispatched, which have, ere this, reached him, and he is hourly expected. It is also not true that Load anon, the Duke,of WiLtINGTON, and Mr. PIM., were among the distin guished indiiiduals who left their names At the Lodge 1 1 yesterday, although an immense number of the Nobility ind several of the Ambassadors were among the number. ANOTHEs LETTiIt, DATZD CHISWICK, TWO O'CLOCK, P.M. •• Mr. CANNING Is easier, and free from► pain ; By his desire, about one o'clock a messenger was se .it 14 to bring down Captain CANING, of the Navy, hii son, as the Right Hot. Gentleman was most anxious to see him." FROM TNE COURT CIRCULAR. Mr. Vance, the surgeon, was among the first of the medical' Gentlemen called in et the commencement of the Right Hon. - Gen htsnan's indisposition on Tuesday last. The physicians wbo signed the bulletin of yesterday moving, bad remained at Chiswick during Sunday night. Dr. HOLLAND, directly after the bulletin was issued, proceeded to town, and had an inter view with the Karl of Hannovrir and several of the Cabinet Mi. nisren, who had all arrived in town, with the exception of Mr. Huss:soon, who is on the Continent. Copies Of the bulletin, with some addltiosial "articular', were teat to all the C..binet Aliasters. • Great numben of persons of distinction Called ye:sterlbfat Mr: Camnisc's house in Downing-attert, to make their Inquiries ; among them were Prince listerhazy, the Austrian Ambassadoi, the Spanish, Portuguese, Prussian, Swedish,Nexpolltan, liavarian;and Wurtem. berg Ambassadors and lilinisters, the ?lamas of thist'oi, the Earl of Westaiorland, Lord Nugent, Sir Alexandei Johnstone, Sir James Shaw, Sir Alexander Grant, the Attoitsepteoe;al, About half-past two o'clock a verbal conuitudelion was received in Downing-street from 'Chiswick, announcing that n . slieration whatever had taken place in the state"of Mr. C~nrnro. At three o'clock a Cabinet Council wis Iseld'at the iesidence of Mr. CANNIMG In Downing-street, summonses for which were issued by Viscount Dottier and Ward, which was attended by the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of Harrowby, the Duke of Portland, the Mar. quis of I.ansdown, the Marquis of Anglesey, the Earliof Carlisle, Viscount Goderich, Viscount Dudley and Ward, Viscount Pal merston, Mr.' Wynn, Mr. Tierney, Mr: Sturges Bonnie, and Lord fkxley.--The Ministers Sat in deliberation till pait five o'clock. 'The Duke of PORTLAND, after the breaking op of the Cabinet Council, proceeded to Chiswick. tr.

At en early hour in the morning of yesterday, the Royal and Stock Exchanges were filled with persons desirous of hearing who titer there was any • truth in the assertion, and the solicitude ,hewn for the Right Honourable Gentleman proves, in the most unequivocal manner, the estimation in which he is held by all classes of society. Dispatches were sent to Chiswick by many of the most influential houses in the City, in order that, should any Bulletin be issued, immediate Informattod might be obtained in what manner the Hun. Gentleman had passed the night. Every person arriving from that direction wae.surroonded by parties de. aims of obtaining correct intelligence, bet it was not until late In the. day that any of the Expresses referred to above returned. In the mean time rumours of all sorts were promulgated ; it was even asserted confidence that Mr. C. had breathed his last.Thls report, as may be expected, had a great effect en the Funds, which during the day were subjected to rapid and extensive fluctuation. At an early hour business began in Consols for account at from 8/1 to 88$, but very soon after the Market opened, a decline of 2 per Cent. took place, Consols for Account falling to 864. They remained in a very heavy state until about balf.psst eleven o'clock, when one of the Expresses returned, bringing with hint a copy of the Bulletin issued yesterday morning, and which stated that Mr. CAMS° had slept for a few hours the night previous ; but men. tioned the melancholy fact, that the Hon. Gentleman's disease still endangered kis life. The slight hopes held out in this Rid letiq raised the price to ing ; but Consols again became heavy, de-, dined to 87, and after a great deal of variation, finally closed 14 per cent. under the first price In the morning. The report at a late boy yesterday evening was—that the Right Hon. Gentleman was not in any way released from pain; and speculation continued until nearly six o'clock, when some bargains were made at 87, set. lets. The fall in the other Securities has been proportionably great. We r..ceived this morning Hamburg?) Papers to the 4th inst. and the Journal de Franefort to the 31st ult.
