The Duke of Larochefoucault Liancourt, Inspector- General of the School of Arts at Chalons, has just gone to that town, in twist:pierce of insubordination among the pupils in that school. Si.v.:ral of these young people have been sent back to their parents. All the persons comleninet: by the Ti ihunal of Correctional Police on the 13th of February, have undergone their sentence, far having favoured the escape of Laverderie and Duvergier, ex cept the Baroness de Pailbes, who has appealed. The cause came on this morning before the Royal Court ; but as the Baroness did not appear, the first sentence was confirmed. The Ani de la Charge announces that Colonel Ali:, lately ar rested at Nantes, is to be tried at the next Assizes. It stems that the arrest of this Officer took place after an explanation with the Prefect, to whose office he had gone to have his passport signed. Letters from Montidicr (Sonune) say that firi.s are seen almost every night in the surrounding country. The authors of these outrages even have the audacity to commit them in the day time. To prtv:nt these misfortunes, and to secure the general safety, the Magistrii:as have placed military losts in several _ _ IS;t: (the• envier Frarticisc) have received some details of the affair at la Rochelles. In the night of the 19th, information was obtained of a plat, formed by some subaltern Oificcrs of the 4.5 th of the line. The Prefect, the General, the King's Lieu t:•nant and Attorney met at the Polak de Justice. At the same time the Cohmel repaired to the Da - racks with some Offict.-rs.— Ile put under arms a company of grenadiers of tried fidelity• trod proceedkd to call over the subaltern Mem, and to visit their chambers. Twelve were first arr.:stet!, and on examiiti. .ir beds, there were found, as has been a great lumber to dagger& and pistols. The twelve arrested were sent with a t•trong escort to the Palais de Justice, where they underwent a long examination. They were then sent to prison, and all coal nittideittion with them prohibited. It was observed that an Tuesday morning, only the News papers arrived by the post, the packet of letters having remained at Poitiers. It was nut till four o'clock iu the afternoon that it was brought by a postillion and on purpose. The same evening. the Prefect was employed in his cabinet without intermission, and with out admitting anybody, which makes it supposed that the affair was serious. However, we know nothing certain con cerning the plans of the conspirators, but it seems that it is con tacted with a plan more vast, the tarnifie.atiuns or* which extend to a great many points. the the 21st March, five other military were arrested in the city. two others out of the city, coming from a detachment sent to Thouars, and two others arrested by the gendarmerie at souse I t agues from Rochelle. It is also added that three strangers have likewise been secured, who were hastening to leave the city very early in the morning of the 20th of March. VIENNA, MARCH 15. EXTRACT FROM A PRIVATE COMMUNICATION. ,‘ The Privy Counsellor Tatischeff is invested with the title of Plenipotentiary Extraordinary, and furnished with full powers from his Majesty the Emperor, fur the purpose of trying, in con cert with the Cabinets of Austria and England, all means com patible with the dignity of that powerful Sovereign to restore the good understanding with the Ottoman Porte. This new proof of the solicitude and moderation of the Emperor Alexan der must abridge the negociations, and at length put an end to the uncertainty respecting the question of war. 44 Russia requires only the execution of the treaties, by virtue l e of v:hich the Turks are bound, first of all, to evacuate Moldavia a nd Wallachia, and place I lospodars at the head of the Govern ment of those two Principalities. Hitherto the answers of the Divan on these two points have been evasive, and its actions by no means satisfactory. 64 Russia feels, meantime, all the inconveniences of war, with out reaping any of the advantage. •For more than six months, numerous armies, assembled on the frontiers of Turkey, occasion great expenses, while the revenue is diminished by the stagnation of commerce in the eastern provinces. 4, His IkLijesty the Emperor Alexander is not only very far f rom an projects of conquest, but be makes his highest ambition consist in consolidating the tranquillity of .Europe."

They are full of coutradictory speculations from Vienna and Frankfort on the nee ciations between Russia and Ttlrkey ; on the Greek warfare, and on the death of ALI PACUA. An article from Romberg states positively, that his MAJESTY will visit the Continent in the ensuing summer, and . the course of his tour, pass some time at Berlin, Vienna, Hanover, Homberg, &c. It is added, that his MAJESTY will also visit Pyrmont, the waters of which have been recommended by his physicians. • This morning we received New York Papers to the 7th of March, Richmond Papers to the 25th ultimo, and Charlestim Papers one day later. By these we have a confirmation of the independence of Panama. The accounts from Nassau state, that the negociation bet Ween our Government and the United States, re lative to opening the trade with our West India Islands, it not likely to be terminated during the present Session of .Congress. The Commissioners under the fifth Article of the Treaty of Ghent, ap pointed to settle the boundaries, have disagreed in opinion on the principal points, and will each make their separate report to their Respective Governments.

Mistaking her for a colonial cruizer, the Comet fired several sh no and a broadside into her, which were returned by the Danish brig : in the morning the Spaniards discovered the mis take, and made a suitable apology.

DEATH -OF TILE RECORDER OF LONDON.—This morning Sir JOHN SYLVESTER was found dead in his bed, at his house in Elloomlbury-square by his valet: he was quite cold, and is supposed to have died in ..he middle of the night. Sir Joint was walking out Jul ing yesterday morning, and dined in the afternoon with his Royal Highne►s the Duke of Youtc, at his house in the Stable--yard, St. James's. He' returned home last night, at twelve o'clock, and retired to rest immediAtely. He is stTposed to have died of a spasmodic affection, to which he had for some time been subject. He was nearly tip years of age. It is supposed that he will be succeeded by the COMMON SEHJEANT. DUEL.—On Tuesday forenoon, about eleven o'clock, a meet ing took place at Auchtertool, near Ba!mato, in Fifeshire, be tween Sir ALEXANDER BURWELL, of Aucheolec!.., But. and haw STUART, Esq. of Dunearn. Sir ALEXANDER was attended by the lion. Jolts Doi:GaAs, brother of the Marquis of QUERXSZEIIRT and Mr. STUART by the Earl of Bossism. The parties fired by signal, and Sir ALEXANDER received his antagonist's shot in the spine. Sir ALEXANDER was carried to Balmuto House, where be was attended by Lady Boswect, Professor THOMIPON, and several surgeons of the first eminence. The ball had not been eitracted on Wednesday ; and though Sir ALEXANDER was still alive, yet he was cor.sidetel in extreme danger; indeed, the ,spine has been so severely injured as to leave no hopes of re covery. Various rumours are afloat as to the cause of the quer; rel : some state that it was in consequence of a libel witch ap peared in the Beacon, a newspaper of infamous celebrity ; but we believe that the obnoxious paragraph appeared In the Glasgow Sentinel, the Editor of which gave 'up the author. Mr. STUART, and his second, the Earl of ROSSLYN, left Scotland for town as soon as the duel was over. Yesterday, at a quarter before one o'clock, his MA JESTY left his Palace, in Pall-Mall, for Brighton. The Marchioness of LONDONDERRY had a splendid party last night, in St. James's-square.

IRELAND. CONTINUED OUTRAGES.-TWO MURDF.ES. FROM THE DUBLIN JOURNAL OF INT.DNESDAY. Friday night last, about twelve o'clock, a farm house on the lands of Bally-Ellis, near Doneraile, the property of C. Crone, Esq. was maliciously set on fire, and totally consumed. On the same might, cabin on the lands of Bally-Ellis, within a mile of Buttevant. was burned, either accidentally by its in mates, or maliciously by Whiteboys. The cabin has' been for many years inhabited by an unfortunate female and her illegitimate children. In the County of Kerry, through the exertions of the Rev. Messrs. Collins and O'Leary, the Coadjutor Priests of Castle bland, 23 stand of arms have been returned to the Magistracy, and between 40 and 30 Whiteboys have taken the oath of allegiance. Near Killarney, on-Sunday week, a shocking murder was perpetrated. As Thomas Fitzgerald was standing in conversation with another person, a fellow named Thomas Gordon, came treacherously behind him, and in revenge for some late ir.jury, as we are informed, sty uck him a violent blow on the head, which frac tured his skull, and killed him on the spot. In the County of Limerick, during last week,, the banditti committed the following outrages:—Flogged nine men (six at Coolruss, two at Duhoro, and one at Cappenahane) ; burned one house at Ballyroe ; broke into another at Coolruss; killed Live sheep— (three at Green-hill, and two at Konocklong) and shot two cows and one heifer at Coolruss. To the shove we have to add a murder. A man named O'Neal, who was expected to prosecute some offenders at the Assizes, was murdered on Saturday night; his body was found under a heap of stones at Cappa, and brought into Rathkeale on Sunday. The post-boy conveying the mails fi om Rathkeale to Shannagolden, was attacked by four armed men on. Saturday morn ' ing on the road near Stoaev :11e demesne, who dragged him off his horse and robbed him of the mails. knives us pleasure to state that Miss'Goold, the young Lady who was carried off from her friends by Browne, was on Saturday night retaken by a party of the Rifle Brigade, commanded by Lieutenant Ro binson, from a house where she lay concealed. She was conveyed to Abbeyfeale on Sunday, and there, given up to her friends. Miss Goold mentioned to Lieutenant Robinson, that a few nights ago, while Colonel Norcott and a party were in search of her, she was within two fields of them, concealed in a l ditch, naked, and guarded by a man, who threatened to shoot her if she gave any alarm. Lieutenant Ro binson delicately inquired ()flier hew she was treated by Browne? and she told him that he offered no vio lence to her person ; but that she was greatly ex hausted from being continually carried about by him from place to place, living on bread and tea, and never sleeping a second might in the same house; and that on Friday Browne became so alarmed, from the activity of the search after her, that he took his leave of her for ever. Three men were arrested on suspicion of being concerned in this affair, on Sunday morning, by Godfrey, Massy, and Lieutenant Piercy, of the Newcastle Police, who were out patrolling the mountainous district. ..... We regret to learn, that the nocturnal marauders have begun to extend their depredations in the county of Kilkenny.. On Sunday night, about one o'clock, a party of armed insurgents visited the village of Cur raghmartin, on the estate of Mr. Flood, of Flood-hall, lying a little to the left of the road leading to Carrick, between Granny Castle and Aglish, and about four miles from Waterford, where they searched several houses for arms, and procured five guns. At one of the houses, where the owner was unwell, they had the delicacy to cause a neighbour to rap at the door,' to prevent alarm to the sick man, but insisted on get-, tin 4 his gun from his wife. Several other outrages are detailed as having been committed in the counties of Kilkenny, Tipperary, Mayo, and Waterford. At the Limerick Maize., on Thursday week, Patrick Loris Ma 13,14 Michael Madigan, and linger liPliakars, were tried for the murder of Patrick Murphy, on the ad of December last. M'Mahon was acquitted. The three former were found guilty. When serilence of death was passed upon them, and they were re moved from the dock, Lewis exclaimed 'To the d-1 we pitch:2lr.

Tuesday evening, between seven and eight o'clock, a man called at the house of Mr. Ganallatp, surgeon, of Leiston, to solicit alms, and whilst the servant gone to her master . , the villain contrived to get tip stairs, where he set fire to one of the beds. An all: was presently given, but the man made his escai, z , A person has been taken up on suspicion of Li!ig the perpetrator of this daring outrage. Tuesday evening, between seven and eight o'clock, a fire broke out on the premises of Mr. Wretctir, f,i Mendlesham, which destroyed a barn, in which w;:1 a waggon and other implement. .Thursday evening, about seven o'clock, a moat awful conflagration took place in the farm-yard cr Mr. BYLES, at the Upper Hai [louse, which, for ta pidi:y of destruction, has not been exceeded by any fires in this County. It began in a spacicus barn, which contained about eighteen coombs of barley. The devouring element almoq instantaneously tended its ravages• to a stack rt wheat of about eighty coombs, which, with the bat u, was entirely consu axe. Within ten yards was another large stack of t, heat, and . close by one of clover stover, and tw o other stacks; but most providentially,at the instant of the flue bie..k. ing out, a violent shower came on, and the e ird veered to the west : this, with the prompt arrival the Town engines, and the great exertions cf the per. sons present, preserved the stacks and stables ti oni sharing the same fate. The fire was, without doubt, maliciously occasioned, and the mis..reant, whoeve: he was, must have been esti emely quick in the ex:- cation of his vile purpose, as a fat ming man had off threshing in the barn only hall an hour, and a ..er. vant, who has been in the employ of .fir. iSYLES for twenty years, went into the bat n alter him. M. Int.ts had also Leen near the sill in the interval, and not seated himself five minutes in his house beu ne the alarm was given that the barn was on fire; in less than a quarter of an hour it v‘ as burnt to the ground. What could prompt malice to be direct, .1 to this individual, we are quite at a loss to concei-.-..!, as the name of llvt-ns has long been assimilated is this town with every humane and charitable A reward of I:2(X) is offaed; this we earnestly k will lead to detection. _ _ _ Tuesday morning, a brand,with a bundle of matcl.ec, were found in a stack of clover-stover on Mr. RoE's premises, in St. Clement.
