STAMTI&AL DRTAILS ON PARIS.' . 642n116 3e tannnot., Prefect of the Depart itent‘)f tike Seine, ha; recently published a work, from official documents, containing some interesting particulars on the state of Paris. The following ex tract will afford a curious comparison with the state of London: On the tat of January, 1819, there were registered, in Paris, 1,171 Cabriolets de place (on the stands), of which 765 were for the streets, and 406 for the vicinity. 106 Messageries and Voitures for fixed destinations, not in cluded in those for the vicinity of Paris. 489 Coaches of remise. 318 Cabriolets of ditto. 4,804 Private Cabriolets. 9,080 Carts. 495 Vultures is 1 , ammo, drawn by one horse. 843 Mao ditto, drawn by band. Of Private Voitures, drawn by two or more horses, not sub ject to take a number, the Administration can give no precise a:count: 1,600 Horses are generallykept in Paris, exclusive of those brought thither by strangers. An eighth part of the paving of Paris is renewed annually, during seven months of the beet season. The streets, bridges, and public squares are righted by 4,553 Lanterns which consume annually 275,667 kilogrammes of oil (608,3971b5. avoird.) In the Public Establishments 482 Lanterns consume 14,379 kilogrammes of oil (31,7341b5. avoird.) The ordinary watering and cleaning of the streets is done by the inhabitants. That of the bridges, quays, gates, and squares, ur.ploy, from the Ist March to the 31st October, 110 men ; and during the other four months, 250 men. The clearing away of dust, &c. during eight months require 140 men and 210 bosses ; in the winter 111011illb, 2UO men are required, and 330 horses. 'rile Corn Market can contain 40,000 sacks. In ordinary years there are consumed in Paris -718,000 Hectolitres of Wine, including about 450,000 bottles (13,969,1142 wine gallons). 24.950 Ditto of Cyder (659,154 wine gallons). 77,000 Ditto of Beer (2,034,263 wine gallons). 15,600 Ditto of Vinegar (359,398 wine gallons). 71,750 Bullocks. 8,500 Cows. 16,500 Calves. 539,653 Sheep. 70,500 Hogs. 931,000 Pigeons. 174,000 1/ucks. 1,289,000 Chickens 251,000 Capons or Poulets. 549,000 Turkeys. 528,000 Geese. 131,000 Partridges. tL77,000 Rabbits. 29,000 Hares. Butter and Eggs cost annually 10,348,800 francs. Oysters cost 599,400 francs. Sea Fish, 5,417,600 francs. Fresh-water Fish, 333,400 francs. The receipts of the twelve Theatres, including the Cirque Olympique, may be valued, one year with another, at 5,500,000 francs ; of which they give 500,000 francs for the use of the poor. Ten thousand persons daily frequent the Spectacles, of whom 7000 pay, and 3000 have free admissions. The receipt of the minor Spectacles, Balls, Gardens, Concerts, Coffee-houses a soirees amnsantes, curiosities, &c. may be esti mated at 1,000,000, of which 100,000 francs go to the poor. So that public amusements produce above 6,000,000 francs, which is above 16,000 per day, not including the expense of re freshments, and of gaining, which pays separately. u.% I STAR.

The opinion of the best informed persons in the city, and who ate deeply interested in the issue, is decidedly favourable to peace. It is also under stood, that the last advices from St. Petersburgh are of the same complexion, and that the first Russian houses in this country are acting at this moment under a similar persuasion. Doubts are entertained in the City as to the truth of a statement which ap peared in the French Papers of Saturday, and in which it was said that the EMPEROR had left St. Pe tersburgh for Odessa. The French Papers of Sunday, which arrived yesterday, make no further allusion to a circumstance of such importance. They contain advices from St. Petersburgh of the 22d ult. at which time the EMPEROR appears to have been in that city. He had been a few days before at Cronstadt, to see the ships commanded by Captain /32LLINGHAUSEN, which had returned from a voyage of discovery to The North Pole. The following Proclamation has been issued by the Greeks : From the Camp on Mount Olympus, July 20. MACEDONIANS! Gasses!—The standard of liberty waves over the summit Of Olympus—over the summit of Pindus. Glorious monuments, the monumental columns, the tombs of our heroes have passed away ; but our native mountains, those eternal tro phies of our glory, still bid defiance to time. Macedonians, children of Alexander, around these trophies will we assemble : beside them will we conquer or die ; and those who fall in the glorious cos:test will add new lustre to the deeds of their ancestors; and that lustre will strike terror into the hearts of the barbarians l— blacedonians, Children of Alexander, Sons of the Conquerors of the World, grasp your swords ! Shame on those who will longer submit to be governed by a wretched horde of barbarians.— Your mountains and your valleys are free, and the ensigns of tyranny only still wave on the fortresses. But in vain do the Barbarians hide themselves behind the walls of Sakai chi, of Jenizzar, of Cavalla, and call them, as heretofore, th , ir bulwarks; hut these walls will fall before the swords of the Macedonians, and we will avenge the sufferings of our fathers, our wives, and our daughters, in the blood of the barbarians. Thrice have we already conquered! Phllipo poli I, already in our possession. Our heroes in a few days took It firagira is no more; the Greeks have destroyed the town of the philosopher. Why should it be an asylum for the barbarians? Many have fallen, more will yet fall ! But our tanks increase daily, and will still further increase. To those who have sacrificed themselves on the altar of freedom the favour of Heaven will be extended, and their brothers will avenge their death. To arms ! to freedom, Macedonians I Greeks of every country, the eyes of the world are turned upon ma. ODYSSF.US, Commander of the Macedonians... ..-.-. _i SIR ROBERT 117LSON. The following explanation of the cause of the dis mission of this gallant Officer, appears in a Paper of this morning. It is said to come from a respectable Correspondent, who announces it as the accred►ted explanation in the Military and Ministerial circles. Sir ROBERT WILSON is himself at p►esent in Paris, and knows, as yet, twil►ing of whatiris MAJESTY has been pleased" to do for him: " On the day of the Queas's funeral, at the time the Proces sion was approaching Cumberland-gate, and after the firing by the military at thepeople had commenced, Sir Roamer Wstios rode up to Captain MEW, then on duty near Cumberland-gate, and remonstrated with him on the conduct of the soldiers under his command, which, he said, was disgraceful to the regiment, and injurious to the character of the service.' Capt. ()Acts replied, Sir ROOSST WILSON, I know you perfectly well, but I shall enter into no discussion with you on this point at present. I shall do my duty, and my men will do their's.' Nothing further then passed. On the following day Captain Oasis submitted the occurrence to the other Officers of the Regiment, to order to obtain their opinion on the course which it became him, as a man of honour, to pursue on the subject. He was swilling to regard the affair as one of a personal nature, solely affecting himself, and only required their sanction to take immediately the proper measures to obtair reparation. The other Officers of the Regiment, how ever, refused to :Mow a transaction, which they considered to imply general reflection on the Regiment, to be adjusted on th et me of a private difference, and would not consent that Capt. Oasis should take the affair upon himself in the manner proposed. A statement of what occurred at Cumberland-gate between Sir Rosier ILSOX and Captain Oases was in consequence drawn up, and transmitted to the Duke of Yon:. Ills Royal Highness, on receiving it, caused a private inquiry into the correctness of the facts to be instituted, and having found them established to his satisfaction, he referred the whole affair to the KING, who in consequence caused his royal pleasure to be declared, that Sir ROLM Vinson should be dismissed the service." ANOTHER STATEMENT. When Sir ROBERT WILSON heard the pistol shots, he expressed a desire to go up to the spot, and at least ascertain the cause of them. Ills friends would have detained him, from considering that his pre sence at such a scene might, like many other innocent and well-meant acts, be liable to malicious construc tion. This Sir Ronan. WiLsori declared to be un worthy his regard, so long as there was a chance of saving one life, or dissuading the military from the smallest exercise of violence. He therefore accosted the Commanding-Officer, simply asking him whe ther it was by his orders that the soldiers fired?— The Officer replied, "No:' Sir Itonnnv then begged him " for GOD'S sake to interfere and prevent the effusion of blood." The firing did, as our informants have assured us, cease almost immediately, and by the interposition of the Officers. THE HAMMERSMITH INQUIRY. 1110 M THZ MG The Magistrates acting for the Hammersmith division met again yesterday (being the day to which they had adjourned) a t the Hammersmith Coffee-house. The Meeting consisted of those present on the former day. Great anxiety was manifested by them to know in what manner their proceedings on the Bth, of which we gave an account on Monday last, found their way to the Public, and much inquiry took place on this subject. Mr. Juuzar, the Clerk of the Magistrates, was instructed to use his best endeavours to trace the channel of communication, and it was understood that it would fall to him to draw up an answer of some kind to our statement. Among the other individuals questioned respecting this most heinous offence was the Parish Clerk, who informed them that the statement was not his, though be took it as a compliment that they should attribute it to him. They even went so far as to question the old woman who attends in the Magistrates room, in order to ascertain whether she bad made communications to any inquisitive fellow who might be on the look-out to discover magisterial secrets. The old woman stoutly asserted her inno cence, and assured their Worships that their secrets might be as safely reposed in her as in any of her sex. Their inquiries in other directions were equally fruitless. With respect to one circumstance we can now venture to speak with something like confidence. AR the late magisterial pro ceedinp in that neighbourhood have completely failed to esta blish any preconcerted plan for obstructing the funeral Procession of her Abassxv ; and it has been found impossible to establish the existence of any concert between Sir noses.: Wasn't and Mr. Sheriff Warrnsum, or any other person in the Procession. We understand the Magistrates, on leaving the house, indivi dually expressed themselves satisfied with the explanation of the landlord. We have thus endeavoured, as well as we can, to put the Public in possession petite present state of the Hammersmith • Inquiries. Major Rona, the Steward of the Margravise of Annual, has taken possession of Brandenburgh House since the 24th of last month. The servants, amounting to twelve in number, with Mr. 11mm-rams, are, by the Majors permission, allowed to remain tin some further arrangement shall be made in respect to them. Most of the watering-places on the coast are now quite full; Brighton, Eastbourne, Worthing, Hastings, Little Hampton, and Bognor, are at the height of their season, and scarcely a lodging is to be obtained. Mrs. Corns, whose name is synonimous with be nevolence, on Tuesday celebrated the birth-day of Mr. Courts, (w(to on that day completed his 90th year) by giving to the poor of Brighton a large quan tity of clothing—such as jackets waistcoats, flannel, &c. In the evening, to comthemorate the same event, Mrs. C. gave a dinner party at the York Hotel. A practice highly repugnant to decency prevails at Brighton. Every morning a number of men, prin cipally Gentlemen's servants and London shopmen, collect round the Ladies bathing-machines, and either deter women of delicacy from bathing, or compel them to submit to a most painful exposure. Tuesday last, the election for the vacant office of' Recorder of the City of Rochester came on, when ROBERT MARSHAM, Esq. was elected ; the numbers being—For R. Matsham, Esq. I—A. Ryland, Esq. 4. Majority, 3. The New, Gazette of the 28th ult. received yesterday, states, that advices had arrived there from Labrador, with information that the fishery, which at first proved very unproductive in that quarter, had latterly become more favourable, and was likely to afford those engaged in it a tolerably fair voyage.— A serious quarrel is said to have taken place between some American seamen and Nova Scotia fishermen, near Cape Charles, in which fourteen men were killed, L but no particulars had been communicated.

A number of vessels have arrived in the River, laden with corn, and more are expected this day. The gangs of corn-porters began to break bulk this morning, and seem all on the alert. _ _ Every arrangement is making for his MAJerry leaving town on 'Alonday next, On his visit to his Ha uoverian dominions. When the KING arrived at Brecon, on his way to the Metropolis, he was informed that four criminals had been condemned to death. He immediately de sired an interview with the Judges (who were then holding the Assizes), which lasted for a considerable time, and the result of it was, his MAptsTir's most gracious respite of their sentences. Yesterday, their Royal Highnesses the Duke of YORK and Princess SoPHIA visited his MAJESTY, at his Palace in Pall-Mall. Tuesday, the Duke of YORK held a Levee, as Com mander-in-Chief, • at his Office in the Horse Guards. The Earl of DARLINGTON, who had been some time on the Continent, is now at his princely residence of Raby Castle, where his Lordship has a select party of sporting friends. Ladies LESLIE MELVILLE, Lady CASTLESTUART, the Dowager Lady Came, Lady E. BRICKENDEN, General Sir WILLIAM STEWART, and the Honourable S. UPTON, have joined the distinguished circle at Tunbridge Wells. The Officers of the Cavalry Depot at Maidstone,' gave an elegant ball, on Tuesday evening, at the Depot,. to the Ladies in the town and neighbourhood, at which the greater part of the beauty and fashion were present. On the night between Wednesday and Thursday sennight, Mr. Rom= FERGUSON, farmer, at Mon boddo, near Lanrencekirk, was thrown from his horse, and killed on the spot. Dumf.—Yesterday morning, at an early hour, a meeting took place at Coombe Wood, near Wimble don, between Captain R—, belonging to a Dragoon Regiment stationed near London, and Mr. Kam, a Gentleman well known in the polite circles. The dif ference appears to have taken place on Tuesday af ternoon, at a tavern in St. James's -street, in conse quence of some opinion expressed by the Captain re lative to the late pugilistic contest between Randall and Martin. After firing two shots, the Captain re• ceived the ball of his antagonist in the right (pistol) arm. Surgical assistance was immediately procured; after whicn he was conveyed to his residence, in the vicinity of Pall-Mall. FATAL BOXING.--At the Lancaster Assizes, on Monday, Joseph Rayner was found guilty of killing Peter Fisher.—The Learned JUDGE, in passing sen tence, said that the deceased had certainly borne an ill-will towards the prisoner, and had actually struck him first; and, if the battle had been nothing but fair fighting, he should have deemed a very light punish ment sufficient for the offence, but he had, with deadly weapons (the clogs which he had upon his feet), brutally kicked the deceased on the breast, which bad deprived him of life. The prisoner had said, in his defence, that he had served his Majesty many years, both in the army and the navy, and that ought to have taught him what true courage was ; and that it was unmanly to take advantage of another man when he was on the ground, and unable to defend himself, and to inflict such punishment on him as to occasion his death. He was sentenced to ten months imprisonment. SUCCESSFUL RESISTANCE.•••••AbOIIt two o'clock OR Thursday morning, an armed banditti of forty at tucked the house of Mr. ENRIGHT, in the County of, Kerry, in search of fire-arms. He fired among them and they fled. They then proceeded to attack the house of Mr. KITSON, at Galesbridge, who met them with determined resistance. They set fire to the thatch of his house, but he kept up a constant dis charge on the miscreants as they passed his window, and being obliged to sally out to save himself and family from the flames, he attacked them, being armed with a musket and case of pistols, and pur sued, them some distance—he saw them carry off one dead body, and from the traces of blood, several others must have been killed or wounded. The foundation-stone of the new bridge at Wey mouth was laid on Monday last, by WILLIAM WIL LIAMS, Esq. Provincial Grand Master for the County of Dorset, with • much Masonic ceremony, at which the Mayor and Corporation assisted. A little after seven o'clock, yesterday morning; a fire broke out in a back apartment on the ground floor of the house of E. J. Evans, salt provision warehouse, 46, Great Saffron-hill, which destroyed the entire of, the back premise : , with all thefurniture, bedding, Scc. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
