Constitutional Charter of the 4th of June last. This paper is understood at P-ris to have been signed by the Prince de CONDE, by the Duke de Boussopt, and by M. FEILRAND, one of the Ministers—a circumstance which may account for a contest which has taken place and is still car tied on in the Chamber of Deputies, respecting the wording of the laws now in progress for testoring to the Emigrants the unsold estates and property of which they were deprived by the Revolution, and in other ways giving them a compensation Er their losses. The Opposition, for the word " Restore," propose to substitute" Remit ;" alleging that the use of the former term would amount to an acknowledg ment that all the acts of the Revolutionary Govern. rocas were illegal—a doctrine which would at once destroy every transfer, purchase and act done under the sanction of the laws existing at the time, and since confirmed on the restoration of the Reigning Family. We shall not enquire whether this be a question of triscifsle or a trial of strength. But we have no hesita tation in declaring our opinion, that whichever it may be, the prospect which it holds out to France and to the world is highly alarming. The assumption is the document, that the Parlia ments have still a constitutional existence—in othdr words, thtt lik the Kingly offic!, thmy cannot d i e , is a dogma takes it I:I granted that the organi cations connected with social order, having been le gmlly recognised at any period, can n;!ver afterwards receive amelioration doctrine which, if admitted ts a principk, would infallibly bring Europe to the state of China, and produce a race of animals no way differing from cabbages, except in possessing locomo tive powers. In what a situation would Britain—nay Europe have been found this day, had such a principle been established only a few hundred years ago ! The at ot. any rettxt whatever, to re-establish worn rritiz;;);es, is about as wise in Statesmen, as it \VO;l: 1 1.4' i:1 a Builier to attempt to repair a house by t it't‘d.ll; I (Well timbers over with glue, when he ..mg:tt to tel,..tce them by new wood, of strength suf ficient to uphold the structure. The F;clich volcano is not extinguished ! The drama has not yet reached the fifth act! A docu ment, which-in its spirit threatens to visit - with ven geance the perpetrators of the inumerable crimes of the Revolution, cannot but produce a counteraction dangerous to the peace of t:ie world. We have received Paris Papers.of Tuesday and Wednesday. In the Chamber of Deputies on Mon day, a debate took place on the subject of the project of the law for restoring the unsold property of Emi grants. M. SARTELON, in a long speech, supported the verbal amendments proposed by the Committee, but suggested that the benefits about to be conferred nn the Emigrants, should be extended still farther. He was of opinion, for instance, that all sums of money arising from the sale of their property, and lodged in the Cairse d'Almortirsement, as well as set apart for the hen. fit of Hospitals and other Public listitutions such sums were not already expended on national objects) should be refunded. He was of opinion also, that the Emigrants should be admitted to claim all debts due to them by the public on the Ist of January, 1790. M. SARTELON'S speech was ordered to be rioted. M. Duts,,CCIIET approved of M. SARTELON'S doc trines, but thought the funds set apart for charitable ir.stitutions, ought not to be touched. M. DUSIOLARD lamented the case of the emigrants, but wished to see the matter set at rest, by their re fl.:cting that their lot was like that of the inhAbitants of a district ravaged by the irruption of a volcano, in whom all complaint was fruitless. As to the funds, transferred to the Caisse d'Amertossement end the Le gion of Honour, he thought, as these funds never ceased to be strictly national, they ought to be restored to the emigrants. With respect to the money set apart for charities, he thought it ought not to be re. st.ircd, th:re, being a real property to the individuals entitled to relief: He concluded by expressing a with ;hat all Frenchmen, aristocrats, republicans, emi. grants, Ideralists, patriots, &c. would drink of the waters of oblivion. He vote 4 for the prsjer as amended. The subject was taken up again next day. M. GASTON spoke in favour of the preget, as it ori ginally stood, and gave notice of a motion for ten mil lions, to indemnify the emigrar.ts whose pri perty bad been s M. Dun 'cu, in a very long speech, opposed the prop alt gt:tiier. He thought that, if Adopted, it would in.,ke one-hail <I the emigrants rich, and the other ha 4 would !.)e totaliy destitute. The country, he preJicted, would -ne day have to impute a multi tude of mtsfortut,es to them if they did not reject the law. He thought nothing whatever ought to. be re stored, becau.x it would shake the titles of the put chasers of the pri.perty actuaily sold. He would pre fer the giant of annuities for life; from the public purse, to all the emigrants intlisctiminately. M. DuituActi's speech vv.:s ordered to be printed by a very :lATrOW maj:;rity. M. &Au-um warmly supported the pmjet, as drawn up by the Ministers. His speech was unani mously creerLd to be printed. M. de la IlloaupsatE attacked the projet, not be. I CAM', it restored a part of the property confiscated to the State, but because it did not restore the whole.— The greater part of this property was alienated upon simcle,ordonttances of Ministers only, arretes of Pre fects, or even of local Administrations. " What signify," said the orator, " these grammatical discus. sions, these distinctions b.ltween the words re.tfitution and reinission The property was plundered by in justiLe and violence : but there has been too much said already on this subject. Let us restore or remit, it is of no cow. qu 'nee." The Speaker Then drew an energic and striking picture of the dire effects of the tyranny of BONA.. PARTE. He would to his latest breath oppose the revolutionary acts of this wretch and of all those who preceded him relative to emigration. It is not possi ble to rk:spect such acts : the Chamber was thzrefore bound to ruject the amendments as dangerous. Never, he contended, could there have been any legal nation in favour of the caisse tremor-linemen:. The property thus transferred ought to be restored : would they sell the property of the most faithful subjects tf the KING and the compnions of his long misfor tunes ? As to the. Legion of Honour, he wondered how men could Ey lvtig to it and reap any benefit from its funds, vl.en he reflected that the lawful owners ot th, se funds were dying of hunger. M. A UGIEIt ft:l4oWed on ,he same side. M. DELAvtu,t; was for rejecting the whole projet, and the S:ttings acljourzed. VIGOROUS PROSECUTION Or THE WAR IN AMERICA: GovertiMent has; at length, come to the resoluticS of prosecuting the war with tte . Utmost vigour h. America : our army there will be on the grandest scale. Not only ItirGEORGE PREVOST, but most of the Senior Officers came home immediately. The disembodyieg the Militia is stopped, and all our disposeable force will, without loss of time; Le sent out to America ; even cavalry is mentioned, with a large force of artillery. The arrangement for the present is said to be, that Major-General KEatyr with rank as Lieutenant-Gene ral, shall command in Canada ; and Major-General PAKENUAM, as Lieutenant-General, shall command the Coast and detached Armies. Most probably a ComMander of great name will, ere long, go out to Command in Chief. The Staff immediately going out in the STATIRA frigate, is as follows: The Hon. Sir E. PAICF.NUASS, K. B. Commander of the Forces. Major-General Ganis, 52d Reg 7 nsent, second in command. Colonel STOVEN, Adjutant-General. Colonel BELL, Quarter-Master-General. Mooing, Eq. CommissAry-General. Doctor ROBE, Inspector-General of Hospit.tls. Colonel BRADFORD, Military Secretary. HUNTER, Esq. Paymaster•Cencral. General PAKENuAst is brother-in-law to the Duke of WELLINGTON, and was his Aajutant-General. He and General Guns are Officers of the greatest talent. Major-General GRANT goes out by and by to take the command of the Cavalry, and several other Ge neral Officers will go out with the troops, as soon as they can be collected. It is reported, on the authority of a private corre spondence from America, that a new basis for a Treaty of Peace with this country has been agreed upon between the Federalists and MADISOWS Party, on the rejection of which by this country the Fede ralists have promised their utmost support in the prosecution of the war. The arrival of dispatches, in answer to those which went out by the John Adams, will bring the new proposition, and the Americans are v:ry sanguine with respect to the turn artlich • is 1. kely to bo given to the Negotiations at Ghent in con scrim- !ICC. The following is a further sketch of the contents of of th.: V: nch Journals received this morning :—They stax, Its fm difs, that the fate of Saxony has been finally decided, and thit Prussia is about to take for mal possession. Tile latter Power gives East Friese lend to he Electorate of Hanover, which is to be raised to the dimity of a Kinglotn—Hesse Cassel be a Gand Duchy—Poland to be under the domi -1:ion of Russia, with the exception of Gallicia, which Kill remlin .to Austria, and some small districts, s‘ Veil will be incorporated with Silesia. Among viler :t!ssurd reports it is said that the King of Denmark gives Zealand and Copenhagen to Eng :and, and receives Hamburgh and Hanover in ex change. Our readers havc.been informed of the arrest and liberation of General MINA and his Nephew at Paris. Th e following particulai s are interesting : . It appears that MINA, jun. afte . r the failure at Pam peluna, took itlage at Pan, with several Officers, who had determined to inflow the fortunes rf himself and his Uncle. Soc:n after his arrival he presented himstV to the Police-office at that pLtce, and addressed a memorial to Louis XVIII: in which he set forth the principles by which he had been: guided, as a sol dier, in the defence of Lis country. He stated, that be had constantly supported the cause of the Boutsost family—that his great object was to aid them in their restoration to the Spanish throne, upon the basis of a free Constitution—that such Consti tution had been framed, and acknowledged by the whole nation—but that FEUD:NAND, unminiful cf the valuable blood which had been spilt in his cause, • instead of adopting the Constitution, had persecuted with the utmost rigour those patriots who had most distinguished themselves in his behalf, and had thereby plunged the nation into endless calamities. In ecnse tpience of this state of things, he (MINA,) and many of his companions in artna, faithful. to the oath they had taken to the Constitution, had made exertions in its support ; but, unhappily, having failed in their undertaking, they now applied to his Majesty to re ceive tLeat with hespitality in France, cr to grant them passports to any otleer coahtry than Spain. About the same period, General Esvoz MINA, uncle of the former, arrived in Paris with four or five of his Onicers, and immediately waited upon the Spa nish Caarg6 (PA:T:44es in that city, Count Dc CASA ht utter, under tietit'ous names, fur passports. One ot the Legation happening to reco7rnze the person of the General, gave notice to the Count, who ordered teat the General should be amused, until he had taken means for his arrest. The French Commissary of i'elice wits aceordin!;ly applied to, and with his ac quiescence, the gallant General was soon in custody but no sorrier was the fact cemninnicated to the !tenth Minister for Foreign Affars, than he otdered the Commissary of Police to be arrested in turn, for having violated the laws of France; by obeying the orders ot a foreigner, who had na authority whatever in that country. His Majesty was now made ac quainted with all that had taken pl ice ; when he re piied, without ler,itation—" Let these Geutleineit be instantly set at ; the laws of ranee afford h am hospitality : and it is my will that the Cotnrni , :• n ary be aL.erat.ae. from.
