FRENCH PAPERS. PARIS AUGUST H. Yesterday the Line. accompanied by Monsieur and Madame, heard Mass in the chapel of the Castle. At his return his Majesty shewed himself at the win dow of the glass gallery. The King and the Royal family were received with lively acclamations. At half-past two o'clock, Monsieur, Madame, and the Dukes of Angouleme and Berri, went in a car riage to the Cathedral, where they were received by the Clergy, and conducted in procession to the choir to seats prepared for them. At a quarter before four o'clock the precession set out from the Cathedral, passing by the streets of Neuve, Notre Dame, Mucha Eeuf, the Borillerie, the Flower Market, and the Quaj de la Cii4. 'rhea. Royal Highnesses returned to the Castle about five o'clock. Detachments of the National Guard, of the Royal Guard, and ot the Swiss Guards atten. ed. All the streets through Which the procession passed were ornamented with tapestries, and the window's were hung with white flags. Their Royal Highnesses during the whole of their passage, received lively testimonies of the hap piness which Frenchmen feel at the sight of the au gust family of their King. Count de Ruppin (the King tit Ps ussia) arrived ea SAturdif at six o'clock, and .I.ghted at the hotel of the Prussian Arribassador, Rue de Bourbon. The Count, after dinner, honoured the Theatre des VA rittes voili his presence. His suite on his arrival at Paris consisted of one solitary carriage. The Mar. shal Duke ot Reggio, who had repaired to his dis trict (the 3d military division) to compliment the Count de Ruppin, has not yet returned to Paris. The Doke of Wellinpinn arrived at Paris on St. turday evening. a; hall-past seven o'clock. We are assisted that the Electoral Colleges for the nomination in Deputies will assemble on the 15th of next month, and that all the Presidents of these Col, leges are already named by the King. His Excellency the Minister of War being still in disposed, has not attended the last sittings of the Ministers. It, the Address pronounced in the Consistory on the 28;h of July, his Holiness, while declaring the names of the new Cardinals, French and Italian, whom he hail created, said—'.

This passage skews the in terest woich hes Majesty took in seeing invested with Oa ',topic so virtuous a prelate and so laitblul a subject. _ _ _ Sequier, first President or the Royal Coati, has dep a rted for the waters of Aix-la-Chapelle, by leave from the Keeper of the Seals. On Saterday they began to erect in the Champs. Elysees, c , mphitheatres for the fete of St. Louis. Several adj.!. i the Royal Guard have already been incorporated in the cirmii.ny of the Swiss guard. Coant de Forbin, Director-General of the Royal Museums, arrived at Marseilles on the 6th, with the artists who will accomp •ny him in his voyage to the Levant On the 7th instant the solemn installation of 59 Monks of La Trappe, in the Abbey of Meilleray, took plate before an emmense concourse of persons of all ranks, who flocked from Nantes and all points of the department to witness this mournful and imposing ceremoi .

The last Lausanne Gaunt gives some curious details on the history of the Chief of the Brazilian Rebels, Martins, who has been executed at Bahia.— Martins was not a Portuguese. as was believed; he was an Italian, born at Parma. He had studied mineraiugy at Pretbetg, and married at Vienna a very rich wile. Invited to Spain to go not as a su perintendent of the mines of .Potosi, in South Ame rica, be had there acquired an immense tortune ; but happening to be in Brazil when the insurrection broke out at Pernambuco, his imprudent ambition led him to place himself at its head. A cosi.eily is at present performing, the plot of which is founded on the following anecdote of the yenth of the celebrated Marshal Count Saxe s -4. Among the many admirers whom the charms and talents of Mademoiselle Lecouvreur, a young actress. attracted. the Count Sent was the lover whom she preferred. Every body knows that the Count was in all respects an accomplished cavalier. He well anwited the superiority that be obtained over his ri gals. Mademoiselle Lecouvreur sacrificed them all to him, with the exception of two or three wry pat- Odder friends, of one of whom the Count became secretly jealous. One evening. when Count Saxe had gemmed from the Lady protestations.uf the most render love, and the most inviolable fidelity, he re tired, with the appearance of great satisf ietion ; but Ilespecting that his rival was waiting for his depar. tare, in older to introduce himself, he devised a new and whimsical mode of ascertaining the truth. Des perate lovers tear whole locks from their heads. The Count imitated them on a small scale. He twitched out a single hair, and fastened it with wax across the Opening of the door by which Le had quitted his fair one's apartment. Returning in less than an hour, he discovered that this frail barrier bad not been respected. He knocked loudly, and being admit ted. commenced a search, and soon found the Gen tleman. who thought himself very happi:y concealed. One might suppose that this affair would destroy the naino of Count Saxe and Mademoiselle Lecouvreur. 140 such thing. It rendered it more intimate than ever. The Lady knew how to act in other places besides on the stage It is said that she even com pelled the Count to acknowledge that he was in error, and apologise to het for his conduc t 1" CORUNNA, JULY so. On the %th instant, the Tunisian schooner of war and ber prise were liberated from quarantine. th e Preach Consul snd Prussian Vice Consul here have released the price, with every thing belonging to the vessel, and the remaining cargo, for the sum of five thousand hard dollars, and some donations to the officers of the schooner, on account of the owners of the vessel and cargo. MADAM, AUGUST S. Letters from the Havanna!), dated the 4th of May, announce that the last news received from Mexico are extremely favourable. The Insurgents present themselves in crowds to take the benefit of the par. don offered by his Majesty's Viceroy Apodaca. •No. body doubts but that the insurrection will be entirely 'extinguished in New Spain in the course of the pre sent year. The expedition to Buenos Ayres, which is prepay. ing at Cadiz, is to be completed by draughts from the rear of the army. The plan of finances arranged by Garay inspires every body with the hope of seeing a termination put to the disorders which cast in this department of the public administration. ft appears certain that Canga Arguelles, one of the most dia. I tinguished orators of the Cortes at Cadiz, who was exiled to Pensicola, has been set at liberty, and that he has been invested with one of the chief offices in Valencia, with a salary of 40,0(X) real, (10,000 francs). This is the present maximum, of salaries in Spain. In appointing him in this office, the object has been to procure the co-operation of his knowledge and eapertence in carrying into execution the plan of Garay, to whom his recal is probably to be attributed. It is hoped that this will not be the only instance of the kind, aftd that the Government will employ use ful men wherever they are found. The liberation the liberales, Quintana and Garcia Hereto% is already confidently spoken of. Independently cd the bolls relative to the seculari. za Linn of the monks, of which we have already spoken, it is said that Government has received others int operating a considerable reform in all classes of the Clergy, who do not proceed with zeal in paying the new contribution assessed upon them in virtue of the dec i ree of the 30th of May last. PRIVATE LETTER. • " FARM AUGUST 16. " An important resolotion is said to have been adopted by his Maesty is XVIII. at one of the Councils held dur i ng t he l ast week. The Gendar mery is no longer under the Administration of the War Department, but annexed to the Civil. This is one of those measures which cannot fail contri buting to the tranquillity of the country. The Ultra, enjoy no personal consideration at Paris ; they have not even ventured to propose as Candidate for the approaching Elections. " The Journals announce, that indisposition pre vented the Duc de Feltre from attending the Council of Ministers. It is currently reported this morning, that by an Ordinance of his Majesty, signed on the 14th, Marshal Gouvion St. Cyr is to unite and hold, for the present, the War and Marine Department. " The conditions of the new Concordat are but vaguely known. It is again asserted that the Pope has dissolved the marriage between Napoleon and Maria Louisa, and that their scn is to be created ' Archbishop Primate of Ratisbonne, and Arch-Chan cellor of the Getman Empire, as soon as he shall have attained the age requisite to fulfil the functions , attached to these dignities, and have received the sacred orders."

Those from Boston are not of a recent date : From Quebec they are to the 11th, and from Balti more to the 16th ult. New York Papers have all , ' arrived to the 21st. We learn little, or rather nothing, from there papers respecting the affairs of South America. With respect to the capture of Amelia Island, we are now informed that the true date of that important event wit the 30th of June, instead of the 22d s but the date is the only circum tance in which the latter statements differ from those which preceded them. The Spanish Authoritie seem resolved to add all sorts of circumstantial evi dence to the accounts which they circulate of the suc cesses of the Royal arms. By accounts received at Baltimore, it appears that something like revolutionary movements had taken place at Havanna!), both in the city and in the in terior. The harvest hi Canada promised the 10 ost favour. able results. No int.lligence had reached Quebec of the proceedings of the Commissioners dispatched by Government for the purpose of adjusting the disputes between the Hudson bay Company, and the North. West Traders. It appears by letters from Pernambuco to the 27th of June, that since the restoration of that city to the Royal Government, the disaffected have been com pletely awed into silence. The most rigorous mea sures had, in the mean time, been put in force against those who bad openly aided the Insurgents ; and, in many instances, against those of the inhabitants who had not actually opposed them. The property of such persons was, for the most part, sequestrated, with a view to final confiscations and the proceeds were expected to realise a considerable sum. Trade at Pernambuco was likely to revive. Eight or ten vessels were left loading for Portugal, and were to sail in company, under cuavoy of a Portuguese man of-war. About the same period was also to sail the Ulysses, which bad arrived on the 20th of June, with intelligence of the lon.of the Triomf°.

EXTRACT Cl A LZTTIVAIRON PUERTO CABELLO, ON THE RANIER HAIR, DATED THE BOTH JUN& " After leaving the Capes, we had a fine passage, within ten leagues of Laguira, our port of destina tion, when we were unfortunately becalmed, and fell in with a Spanish privateer, the crew of which boar ded and brought us ibto this port, contrary to all law. The vessel and alto were immediately condemned, and both sold on the 4th instant. Mr. Wilson, es soon as informed of these proceedings, came down from Laguira s but our utmost endeavours for a restoration of the property were of no avail. What will idd to the astonishment of all Americans, is, that instead of being taken by what are called the Patriots, whom we had cause to dread, and who are at war with these robbers, we were captured by the vary people whom we came to feed, the Spaniards that acknowledge the Government of the King of Spain. The marauders also robbed me of part of my clothes. I shall remain here two or three weeks longer, in the expectation of hearing from a Judge who lives about 200 miles from this place, on whose sanction or reversion of this condemnation much depend." The survey of the American Coast, recently or dered by Government, is to be corrlmetreed at Port. land. The United States vessels lying in the har bour of Newport, are to be employed in this service, and are now preparing for the voyage. The Legislative Assembly of Nova Scotia has been prorogued from the 23d June to the 20th October. NORFOLK, (VIRGINIA) JULY 14. Letters by the schooner Clarissa, Wilkinsno, from St. Thomas's, which she lett on the Sd of July, state, that the markets there were erceedingly dull frr kind of American produce. Flour 14 dollars, and sales dull. Corn no sale. Island not very healthy. The Paris Papers of Su . nd4y arrived last night. From the Extracts we have given in our preceding columns our Readers will learn with pleasure, that Annus/um, one of the most distinguished Members of the Spanish Cortes, has not only been restored to liberty, but invested with a most important and lu crative enipleyment under the Government of Fen. DINAND. The liberation of several of his fellow-suf ferers, particularly QUINTANA and Haitians, is also confidently anticipated. The merit of these conci liatory acts is ascribed, and we doubt not ascribed justly, to the new Minister of Finance, M. GANA?, who, in the 'vigorous measures he is pursuing for the restoration of the credit and prosperity of his country ....affecting so deeply as they the privileges of a Body in the State not more obnoxious for their pam pered ease, than remarkable for the malignant aspe rity with which they are ever disposed to resist any eneroachtnent upon it—imust needs fesi the necessity of uniting all the laic intelligence, ability, and in. Silence, he can in its support. The King of P/WISIA, travelling under the name of Count Rum', arrived at Paris on Saturday last, and was joined in the course of the same day by the Duke of WiLLINGTON.II is very probable that they will discuss together every question respecting the proposed farther reduction of the Army of Occupa tion. The opinion which it is understood has already beta given by the Duke, is certainly consistent with common sense.—To maintain an army in France not fi. for the purpose for which it is maintained,would be folly. It is therefore likely that the Allied troops will continue in France without further reduction until the stipulated term is expired, or perhaps until some new and extensive convulsions, but whi c h we hope are not within the pale of probability, shall call them into active military service. Such a crisis miy nevertheless, for aught we know, be contemplated by the Allis: ; and it is not a slight confirmation of the idea of its possible occurrence, that the Duke of Wattimrrou, that lynx-eyed politician as well as warrior, has decided upon retaining the Allied troops under his command. It is well known, that amidst the appearance of perfect tranquillity, France Is distracted by the ma. chinations of parties almost as numerous as her de• partments. Like the members of all factionr, created for mere personal aggrandizement, they cor dially bate each other, and hence, perhaps, the exist ing Government has lees to fear. By one of these parties the Ktpg is described as in the leading strings of another party, coiling themselves Constitutionalists, but who secretly aim at the overthrow of bis family, and the introduction to the throne of another branch. These doctrines• they have, by means of infuriated Missionaries, assiduously inculcated upon the minds of the open and generous, but aedalous Vendeans; and their seducers boast, with Satanic satisfaction,l that they can still raise 100,000 men in arms in 24 boars, to rescue degraded and imprisoned Royalty from its keepers. These mischievous agitators have been shut out from ill political consequence or power, either in the Mibiary sir the Chambers, by the good sense of their Sovereign ; and it is thus that they ig nobly sake their revenge. Such arc the materials of which one conspicuous, if not powerful, French Makin is formed, and we confess they appear to as to be of a combustible nature. We fear it is too true, that the invincible loyalty of the Vendeaos has been practised upon, and their fiery terepeas are full fed for aekenterprize, however mi:chievot♦s or wild. Tile lite Ordinance Of thy KIN% ez11;a8 back to the gritty those °goers whom die Yendeans have been taught to regard as perjured rebels, has doubtless been eagerly seized upon to it. 'crease their irritation. It is, strictly speaking, i n direct contradiction to a pledge given by the Royal Family, and long acted upon, of filing up the va cancies with Vendean Officers. But the dangers against which the Allies have to guard are not con. fined to the llendeans. The ill•diyested military mass, which the Constitutionalists, or those in rower, are collecting for the support of their measures, not without inflammatory ingredients. The Trunch army is still without a Captain fitted to command it. The distractions of public opinion hate scarcely left one Marshal or General Officer untainted in i..e etti. mation of the army or the nation. the sold ers are, therefore, in continual mutiny against their (Mattis , and, except for plu-poses of mere ;mind. r, ter a 4.

Upon the whole, we apprehend, that even the partial, but incessant tumults of last year, hare sheen the necess sity of the continuance of precautionary measures on the part of those whose duty it is to see the Treaty of Paris fulfilled. It ought never to be forgottess, that !tracer is still, in some measure, peopled with arme 1 men, who have n " i, gen. rally speaking, as yet give. Any convincing demonsr ationsot their attachment to the psescnt order of things. Paris Papers of a day later than the preceding have also arrived this morning. Tile f .ilowing are extracts: PARIS, AUGUST At balfspast one o'clock, Count Ruppin, accods• ponied by three Aides-de-Camp, and the Prussian Ambassador, was introduved by the Duke d'As. mum into the King's Cabinet. The august traveller remained about half an hour with his Majesty, and afterwards visitud Monsieur, Madame, the Dube of eingouleme, the Duke and buchess of Berry. In the afternoon he dined with the King. The dangLter cl the Duchess of Orleans was bap. tired yesterday at Neuilly. H. Laporte, bookseller, and one of the richest capi talists of Paris, died yesterday, aged 73. Count Buol de Sehauenstein, President nt t) , e Diet of Frankfort, has arrived at Parts. It is the Hereditary Prince of Tuscany who has solicited the hand of the Princess Amelia of Saxony. DRESDEN, AL:GUST 6. The proposition of imposing a duty upon the im portation of English manufactures at Leipsic, has been rejected is prejudicial to that freedom of trade s which the city of Leipsic must erjny, if it wishes .to remain as it bas hitherto been, the grand depot of merchandise fur the north of Europe. The free exportation of grain has been re-esta blished in the States of Same-Cobourg. The other parts of Simony propose to follow the same system- It is with pleasure that we thus announce a teratinil tion to the prohibitive system in regard to provisions. LUBEC, AUGUST 4. Letters from Norway state, that a General and Extraordinary Diet of the Kingdom of Norway will be convoked, to meet about the end of September, when the Prince Royal will open it in person, and afterwards declare his son Viceroy of Norway. The present Governor, Count Moerner, will afterwards leave Christiana, and resume his ancient post of Go. vernor of Stockholm. The prospect of a marriage between the Heredi tary Prince Oscar and a German Princess is again talked of, and we are even assured that the negocia dons on the subject are already nearly completed. HANOVER, AUGUST' 4. The new fiLanchil organization of this kingdom occupies much attention. The military system will, it is believed, experience some moeiEcations, and the number of troops of the line be diminished. A letter from Geneva styes, that there art in that city several English Methodists of high rank, who hold religious conferences, and circulate writings tending to render Inspected the doctrines preached is the tczuples of Geneva ; they are also charged with contributing to lead astray the minds of those who have acccss to them. This curious statement is mixed up with another, mentioning the existence of a Ste of Mystiis at Geneva, and of religious ditiererces and disputes, whiehtad led to the silencing, by au thority, of some young Ecclesiastics, but this part c' the narrative it so obscurely given, that the pc; which had caused these altercations are net in .tt manner defined. .
