The Paris Papers of Monday, wid the exception vin of the Journal des Wats, arrived this morning. The Diet of Wirtemberg have not yet come to any '-termination on the plan of Constitution st.btnitted them by the KINC ; and the populace, in the mean alit', have been giving a new and lamentable ex• ample of the delusion into which it is possible for a ;!vile to fall with respect to their true interests, when Tsvirited by Vie wild exaggeration of a faction, been vzly on the advancement of their own petty and sinis ter interests. On the night of the 28th and 29th, a taninhous crowd of people assembled in the princi pal streets of Stutgard : they attacked the hotel of tte Minister of State, Wangenheim, with stones, broke i!tto it at last by force, and committed every sort of t'ltTage. The Minister himself had found meant, it vnld appear, to escape their fury. The cocntuo nqa was, after some time, quelled bi . the active cur tans of the ordinary patroles alone; and several of igleaders were taken into custody and commit . to the Fort of Holten Asperg. It is stated in an article under the head of Constan -4 that the Fort of Praga, situated in Albania, !te the ' , Alan Isles, and which, ever since the >,i , )ri of the latter by the British, has been gar ' ty a British force, has been agreed to be cur . to "corkey, in consequence ot arrangements, at.ich the Pusses recognizes the independence and vi:7 of the new lonian Republic.

April, Annouheing that the insurrection at Pernambuco on 'the Pith of March, and which had spread down the coast to within about forty leagues of Bahia, had been so far quelled as to be Con f. Ord to the !units of Pernambuco ; where it was expected to be soon quelled, as the Governor of Bahia ha.' been very active in sending three s!:ips of war with troops to blockade the harbour, 4nd it•was known that Pernambuco was very short of provisions. Busi ness of wane was at a stand at Pernambuco, but the letters state, that hitherto private property Lad been respected. Two of the armed ships sent against Pernambuco were the Carrarto and Nerewie. Previously - to their arrival off the port. the Iniurgents had succeeded in taking the garrison and a number of convict% from off the island of Fernando Noronha, which had made an addition to their force of about 400 whites. The Governor of Bahia - bad begun to assemble his dis posable troops upon the river St. Francisco, midway between Bahia and Pernambuco, and forming the boundary between Sergippe and the latter province., Six hundred regulars had reached that rendevou z, and the militia were under orders to join them, when 'the whole corps would march against Pernambuco, under the command of Brigadier-General JONQUINO on Wm.°. The district of Alagoas, in. Pernambuco, had, it is reported, been su:prised into revolt, and had joined the insurgents at the instigation of a Colonel com manding that distrizt ; but the inhabitants had sub sequently returned to their duty. The interior of the northern part of the Province of Pernambuco, which furnishes the Capital with meat, had refused to ilOd any t and wheat (when the accounts came away) was sold as high as 100 rein per bushel. It seems, however, pretty evident, that the Brazi lian Government has greatly endangered its own se. curity, by send:ng its troops into the territory of Monte Video. The following letter, from a source by no means favourable to the ratriots, indicates plainly enough, that the HOT:bt of BRAGANZ.I, in seeking aggrandizement, on the pretext of resisting revolutionary principles, has only brought trouble, upon itself : " RIO JANE:IO, MARCH 2s. ' The Revolution of Buenos Ayres has acquired fresh vigour, by the conquest which the army wider the command of General v. 4 1 41 MARTI,: has just made of the kinenni of Chili, the We of which country was decided on the i Yth of February, by the batik of Cha:abuco, in which the King's troops were beaten through the want of skill in their General, MARCO. On the 14th they uccsapied the capital, and a'irost at the same dine the other various Provinces of that Ktngiutn, which did nut make the smallest resistance. " From the th of January, at whlrli time the Portuguese took possession of Montevideo, the army has rimamed encamp's!' in the indulty of the town. In the mean while the Orientals occupy the whole of the country, and intercept all couunuolca dons by land.

Though this v►as, in many respects. an important day in the trial of patron, yet it proceeded but s:only: rhe examinatio:► of Castle, the Accomplice, lasted frcm ten o'clock in the morning till half past .six in the evening. Tice Court az different dim this day was filled persons of rank acd cote among others were Lord Gam, with his sc , n, 2 te , ly about nine years old; Lord fi , :i.t.Aoo, Load Goosvcson, Lord Ewa:nowt. Lord Bissau°, Lord CAstms, and Eis on Lord Butt:loom Lord Moiiminu, Mr. LAI:EII'ON, Mr. Maim, Mr. RICHARD WELLIgatEY, Mr. LAW. Mr. CORDON, Mr. %woos:up, Sir WittiAsi SCOTT, Sir E. KNATCHBULL, Sir It. WILS2N, Mr. BRUCE, and the PORTUGUEOC ANILASSADoIt. The Arrommv-Gskaitar., about five o'clock in the afternoon, observed, that he was happy to see one of the Sheriffs in C.itut, as he had no doubt he would feel it his duty to attend to what was passing in the Ball. At that moment he understood hand bills were in circulation, two of which he held in his hand, and which contained the lollosving words: •• ' 4 gal I'ONS ALIVF.! g ; A FEW ►lll. ItlC.l.lNtalAbl% IS WANTED." "uIU I'ONS ARISE is NO POltiotTV IN A rime COUNTRY !" - - - - There were about five or six of these placard:, in manuscript, brought into Court, and shewn to the Judges and the Jury. Mr. Sheriff Ktitey imme diately withdrew, and returned soon atter, without making any report of what he bad done or discovered. The number of these bills, being in m touscript, was probably not great. The author or distribUtor of these abominably absurd, as well al wicked placards, was not, as far as we could leant, discovered at late hour last night. At the conclusion of the examinition in chief of Castle, Lord ELLaNnanot cot addressed himself to Mr. Wetherell, and asked whether it was his wish then to enter upon the cross-examination of Castle Mr. Wantritet.t. replied, that it would certainly occupy much time t and if it were postponed, as the witness was described in the li►t as in enstody, it would not perhaps appear an unreasonable request, that no persons but the guard and gaoler should have access to him, until the cross.examinntion were finished, in order that he might not be able to see any notes of his evidence, or to have communication with any persons who had been present during his examination in chief. Lord ELLExpottouoit raid it was certainly to be re gretted that vie cross-exasrsination could not be com menced to-night, but the Court could make no rule such as was requested ; his Lordship would rather adiress himselt to the Attorney-General, who ho doubt would take care that alt proper precautions were used. His Lordship trusted that Mr. Wetherell would not understand that the remark that had fallen Iron the Court regarding postponement proceeded from any other motive than a wish fur hi s person a l accommodation. The Court would continue its sitting to any length with perfect readiness and saiisfretiuo. WEctretteu. proposed to put a few quettions to the witness before the Court rose. The Arrousev GtNUAL coasidered. that if the cross examination were begun. it.could slot be di vided, but must be concluded that night. lb was quite indifferent what course was pursued ; but he would undertake, as far as his direction had force, th4t the witness should have no communication, either in writing or otherwise, with any persons but his jailor ant: the gloat!. Lord ELLEN. onovoir—. , I hare no doubt of it ; add I rather think that Mr. At u Genes 41 is right that it you begin, Mr. Wetherall, you must conclude your cross-examination. Mr. WErnxiteu. suggested that the sittiag of the Court might be prol , ,nged, as tit. Mil, 10 si•ven or eight o'clock, and in the mean time the cross ezami nation might proceed. Mr. Justice 11.-tvcav observed, that that hour was now nearly arrived. Lord ELLEN:moot:Gil—We are ready to (timid' such bodily strength as we hare: Gun knows we have none to spare. The object being to obtain truth, it is right to consider also the biddy state of the witness, and to take care that he is not entirely exhausted. 1 certainly never recollect so long as examination in chief in my liw. You Will . dispow of our time as you think fit. Mr. WETUERALL added, that after the fatigue the Jury had undergone as well as the Court, he would not then commence the cross-examination. lle thought, however, that such questions as the Jury was disposed to put might be answered. The ATTORNEY- GENERAL said, that this was not the fit stage for the questions of the Jury. He again assured Mr. Wetherell that every step should be taken to prevent any kind of comsaunication with the wit ness. Lord ELLEN1101401:01I recommended Mr. WicruErt. ELL to accept this assurance, as the Court could not• interpose to lay down any rule upon die subject. One of the Jury took this opportunity of asking, if they could not be allowed to take a little fresh air, in custody of the Officers appointed to attend them : this might be done either early in the morning, or late in the evening; but unless it were permitted, it was nbt impossible that the Court alight be delayed by the rlecessity of medical attendance upon some of the Jury!? The C.:ourt assented; but suggested that the direc tion taken by the Jury should not be made knoWn. Mr. WUTHILRELL requested that some otlicer might be sworn to keep the witness Castle secure from all communication; and again Lord Ewt.voiouovcri recommended that the Counsel for the prisoner should be satisfied with what the Attorney-General nad wicks-taken. Mr. W rriitan.c. begged that some person on thv part of the prisoner might be allowed to watch the witness. Lord Etxxszonotxu observed, that if it were his caw he should entertain no doubt or jealousy, ate, %tint bad been said by the other side. Mr. WILTHISELL expressed himself quite satisfied under the cirCerattelKet, and agreed to eomn►tn:. his cross.examination to-morrow (this (14)1 M►. Justice B , ►tr.r:t observing, that the witness migl► 'nn be iii,:errogided as to aly a: - .d whit cowmuatca• Con he had had with other . peivms than thc;e ap • pointed to attend hint.—The Cautt then ado:trued ac half-put six o'clock.
