, - . VON• '", C 'Ann& , 1 1 ~~ '4 •, ~s 11; CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, AUGUST e. A discussimi took place on'a proposition of M. De stusux Satast-Ilmataz, to reduce all salaries and emoluments in the following proportion : From 2,501 francs to 10,000 francs, 5 per cent. Prom 10,000 (tams to 25,000 francs, 10 per cent. From 25,000 francs to 50,000 francs, 15 per cent. From 50,000 francs to 100,000 francs, 20 per cent , From 100,000 francs to 150,000, and upwards, 25 per cent. M. COTURVOISIER opposed the motion, and talked of the necessity which the Impeiial Governnient had felt of supporting, itself by the influence derived from official sprits meats. M. BENJA3IIN CONSTANT observed on what had been said of the necessity certain Governments are under of taking a great deal of money from the tax payers, in order to him and corrupt a great number of functionat Assuredly," said M. B. Constant, " this nisal is a sad matter, as well for the tax payers as for the functions, Les, for it is quite as troublesome to pay as to receive the price of corruption. But while we grant, pm haps, that this was the great vice of the Imperial Government, I have a right undoubt edly to be astonished, that since the establishment of that which has replaced it, the number of function at ies, and the amount of their salaries, has increased incessantly. If this increase is the characteristic sign of usurpation, I truly cannot see how it is advisable to make it a proof of the usurpation of Bonaparte. It must be undoubtedly by other signs that legiti macy is established, for this is now more strongly marked than ever. Is it not, Gentlemen, that what ever may be the foam of a Government, if it happens that a party foreign to the nation gets possession of it, that party finds itse:f in the same position as an usurper?.' —ls it not that the necessity arises for it to buy up creatures—to pay the services which they render to it, to the great prejudice of the nation ?—(Good I Good !on the left). —it is not, however, by making functions gratuitous that the evil of this corruption is to be avoided. I reject this expedient, not only be cause it is insufficient, but because it produces an effect directly contrary to that which we pursue. It would give up the people to a party, who would be well able to compensate themselves for their apparent disinterestedness —( Laughter ); — who, instead of an open salary, 'would take, with large hands and with out responsibility, from the public treasury; and who, giving themselves the credit of their public genero sity, would keep the profit of unostentatious spoliation. England has been cited. In England this is the way things go on. I.:sok at the list of the hidden emolu ments of the :Aristocracy, published recently under the title of The Black Book, and you will find that functions apparently without salaries are in truth richly paid by sinecures and salaries without duties." The speech of M. Constant was ordered to be printed, several Members of the right, among them M. Delalot, voting for it.—The motion was rejected. Oa the article respecting the revenue from the Stamps Registration Passports and Licenses to carry arms, &c. M. GIRARDIN took occasion to speak against the passport system. " One day," he observed, "it will be a matter of astonishment, that in a country which enjoys a sort of representative system, and which pre tends to call itself free, impediments could have been thrown in the way of the right which every man has of travelling freely. To reserve the right of grant ing passports, is to arrogate the possibility of refusing what there is no right to id: bid. It is to lay all Frenchmen under a suspicion, as it obliges every Frenchman who wishes to travel, to obtain a pre vious declaration that he is not a suspected person. It is to divide France into wards of a prison, since no one of us can go out of his Commune without being asked for his passport, or arrested if he has not got one. Why, then, might they not also be asked for in the streets of Paris?—(Murinurs on the right.)—What is the.e extraordinary in such a supposition? Did not this formality exist in 1793? At every hour of the day and night, were you not obliged to shew a card of safety, which each time compromised that which it professed to guarantee? The period of 1793, you will say, will not return. But we are arrived at it, as far as passports are concerned, and I will soon furnish you with the proofs of it—(Hear hear).—The speaker then referred to a circular of M. de Corbiere, Minister of the Interior, which directed that in the column of observations of passports delivered for the interior, the morality, political conduct, and motives, known or presumed, of travellers should be inserted. He recommended, especially, that his instructions in • this respect should be punctually complied with in the case of travellers who have already excited the attention of authority. This necessity of taking in formation on opinions, delayed often for several days the expediting of passports, and by this delay inte rests of the highest importance were compromised. You will recollect (continued M. Girardin) that, in the last Session, I had the honour of informing you that the Mayor of an Agricultural Canton had an ' nonnced to the farmers of his commune that they could not go to market without carrying passports — ( Murmurs on the right ; on the left—" It is true ;" Hear).—The farmers went to the Mayor to get them; they were granted to some and refused to others. The Mayor, called upon to tell his motives, declared that he granted no passports to those who were not of a right way of thinking (qui ne pensaient pas bier) —( Murmurs on the right; cries of Hear on the left). Terror is, believe me, a bad mode of Government; it is in its nature transitory. It lasted eleven months, when it was exercised by the people against the pri vileged classes. Exercised against the people, how long do you suppose it could exist ? You will scarcely believe, Gentlemen, what passed at St. Germains on the 9th of last month. Two citizens of Paris passed the day at St. Ger mains ; they slept there because they could not get places in the evening to return. On the 9th, at six in the morning, a Commissary of Police, accompanied by two gens d'armes, presented himself to them to demand their passports; they bad none, but they were perfectly well known. They re quested permission to send for their papers to Paris, which was refdsed them—(.llowonent of asion i s h ment and doubt on the right). They were conducted to pri son; a Quarterma ter comes to them witk a file of men, and orders one of them to take off the sign of honour which decorated his button-hole. • Why ?' said he. , s Because 1 am Foing to put you in irons, to carry you to Versailles —(MUrtellra of indignation OR the left—laughter on Me reedit). The pa isoners re quested to be taken itt a coach, binding themselves al , to pay all the expenses. is request was Illegal and two brave men were c sedp and marched alot ni tg i with a eondemd trimina ." , .„‘. • M. HUGUICT Dli LA cAN/SSA DI, Deputy of the right, rose and 5aW.......1 allb.was arreststd:StSt.Germains.. I declared that I was avDeputy, and I was released." --(General movement in the Assembly; the right side seemed confused; all the left cried, •' See what a specimen of freedom ! You were released Because you said you were of the right I") M. GIRARDIN, after referring to theexample of the Constituent Assembly, ,which had abolished the passport system, concluded that the tax on passports' , should be repealed, as the only means in the power of the Chamber of putting an end to the system. The original article, however, was adopted. PARTS, AUGUST 7. The opening of the Assizes in the Department of Vienne, in which the Kt-General Berton and his accomplices are expected' to be tried, is fixed for the 26th of the present month, and ac cording to appearance, it may be presumed that the discussions will be continued until the tuiddk of the month of September. The Court is composed of M. Parigot (President), MM. Millet, Roy, Baugier, Guimard, Counsellors, and Messrs. Illeward and Allard, Conseiliers Audi:curs. The interrogation of all the accused took place on Monday, the 29th July. The act of accusation has been notified to each of them. _ _ It is not yet known whether the Advocates engaged from Paris and other places, by several of the accrued, will receive the sanction of his Excellency, the Keeper of the Seals, to plead before the Court of Assize at Poictiers. In the meantime Mb the President, 'thought it his duty to appoint Advocates from the Bar. No one refused this appointment. The two sons of General Berton, having come from Poictiers to see their father, it was considered that the seriousness of the charge prevented all communication between them. We are assured that General Berton has proceeded to get she order of Court, by which he is to be brought to trial, quashed. - - One hundred and seventy-otie witnesses are collected by the public prosecutor. Berton wished to have M. Merilhou, from Paris, as his Ccunsel. The Counsel for the defence are confined to the most minute formalities in all communications with their clients, and they are so placed between two wickets, that if they elevate their voices, as they must do, they must be overheard by the turnkeys who attend them.—Quendienne. Another liberal Journal this day repeats its explanations of the explosion which destroyed the powder mills at Colmar," which," it says, " ought to be attributed to the continuance of a work carried on without the necessary cadtion." Our correspondent, on the contrary, affirms, that the real causes of this misfortune are still a mystery; we read also in a letter from Colmar, that on the day on which the powder magazine was blown up, attempts had been made to fire the interior of the prison, and that the Magistrates who had presented themselve s on the occasion, had been saluted with cries of—" Vise L'Enepe restr."—Quotidivine. We are auured that 'rural regiments, forming part of the gar rison of Paris, are about to depart for the South. _ . _ French Funds—Five per Cents. 92f. 95c. Bank Stock 1620 f.

Letters received from Jassy, last week, already in formed us that the entire evacuation of Moldavia by the troops of the Sultan was to take - place in a week. Later accounts of the 12th and lath of this month fully confirm this intelligence. The Janissaries really left Jassy on the 13th of July, at seven o'clock in the morning, and commenced their march to the Danube. Kutschuck Ahmed Pacha had taken such rigorous measures ofprecaution that no disorder of consequence occurred on this occasion. The Commander-in-Chief sent out parties to pick up the stragglers, who were immediately bound, and sent after the main body. BUCHAREST, JULY S. F 7e, The journals have published the Bonjoudi, or or der, for the evacuation of the Principalities issued by order of the Porte, by the Pacha of Silistria, as Se raskier, or Commander-in-Chief of the Turkish troops in Moldavia and Wallachia, to Had%chi Achmed Pacha, his Kiaja (or Deputy) at Bucharest, as Com mander of the corps in Wallachia. The order issued from Silistria to the Kiaja of Jassy was of the same tenour. The Hatti-Scherif, or supreme command, sent from Constantinople to the Pacha of Silistria, with the Sultan's own cypher affixed, and which has never before been published, is as follows : " HATTI SCHOOL?, TO THI PACHA OT " Thou who art among the valiant of the Empire, hear what follows, and do accordingly, for it is my supreme will. Know that thy report on the state of the two Principalities, which are committed to thy care, has found approval before my Throne, and induced me to order what follows. The people from Ana toll, who at the call of the Porte have voluntarily crossed the sea, and carried their arms into Romelia, to co-operate in de stroying the plots of the rebellious Rajas, with the help of the Great Prophet (his name shall be praised to all eternity), shall break up and return to the Danube. You will take care that they perform their march in due order, in single detachments, and to the end order your Kiajas to send Meahmander with them, that they may be supplied with provisions on the way, and that, when they reach the Danube, they may find everything ready for their reception in Bulgaria. " My brave Janissaries, the equally brave Spahis, Supora g i, Cossacks, and Tartars, will suffice to maintain tranquillity, and to fill the disturbers o f peace with terror. Thy care shall go yet further. Know that thou must be answerable that the troops remaining in the Principalities do not oppress the pesteable Rajas and do not burden the poor. Tby Kiajas must be respon sible to thee for it, and thou shalt take care, with inexorable rigour, that no excess, by whomsoever committed, goes unpu nished. All this is to be enjoined to the Basehes and Agas, as my supreme will. Every Commander must answer for those under him. For this purpo4e this 1-latti Scherif is addressed to thee." Copies of this supreme order were communicated by the Reis Effendi to the Diplomatic Body at Pera. IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO GENTLEMEN.—It iS computed that about one in three lose their Hair, or became grey, before the age of forty. This arises from various causes : fevers, accouchements, debility, irregular living, power ful medicines, study, perspiration, anxiety of mind, change of climate, &c. destroy the Hair, in the same way as an extreme drought destroys vegetation ; for Hair, though an animal matter, grows in a vegetative manner. This was first discovered by Cul peper, the famous Botanist, who prepared his Specific, since known by the name of Hopson 's Hoar Dims, or CULIMPSK'S &scum, and lately recommended by the great Doctor Hunter, and many eminent Physicians. It acts on the Hair like dew or rain on grass, regenerating its growth, and causing it to vege tate with the greatest luxuriance. Priceas. 6d. 7s. 6d. and vat guinea.

The French Papers of Wednesday have been re ceived. The Chamber of Deputies, on the preceding day, were engaged in discussing some of the items of the Budget, particularly one that relates to the duty on passports, which appears to have given rise to some very shameful acts of petty tyranny. Extracts will be found in the adjoining columns. This forenoon we received (by express) Paris Papers of Thursday. The following are extracts : PARIS, AUGUST 8. The Echo of Midi contains the following extract of the Order of the Day of the 27th July of the Royalist Army of Catalonia : " His Excellency the General in Chief, Don Joseph Valero, has the satisfaction to make known to the troops under his or ders the agreeable news which he has just received, that the town of Mequinenza, in the Kingdom of Arragon, defended by four hundred men, troops of the line sod National Militia, was taken by assault on the 23d of July, at six o'clock in the evening, by a Royal division, whose courage and bravery were not to be excelled. This will serve to convince the Descamisados—enemies to the King and the Religion—that nothing can resist those who fight in a just cause, and celestial protection will always favour the Spanish Army. " PHILIPE DE FLABIRES, General-in-Chief." A letter from Barcelona, of the 22d July, states, that more than three parts of the inhabitants of Ca talonia have formally declared for the King and for the ancient form of Government; and every day there were bloody battles between the two parties : the division of Pereira was lately put into complete disorder in the environs of Tremps ; and the two divi sions of Alboureaz and Torrejoz, who were making forced marches on Seo, were also obliged to retreat on the side of Manreza. Another letter from Barcelona, of the above date, contains the following : " No doubt, my dear friend, you have heard of the success of the Royalists; although you may think it not credible, it is certainly true. I have read myself a letter from Madrid, which confirms the alarm of the Liberaus on the insurrections of Na varre, Galice, Estramadura, Arragon, and nearly all the pro_ vinces in the monarchy. •At Bada jos the Royalists have killed the Political Chief; at Bilboa, Jean, and Oviedo, General Aust.,- QUERQUI it at the head of the King's soldiers in Estramadura. In Arragon there are 15,000 men for the sacred cause." French Funds of the 7th August—Cinque pour Cent. Consols shut at 92 1. 90 c. At a late hour this forenoon we received a German Mail, bringing Papers to the 4th instant. Their con tents are not of much importance. The Duke of CUMBERLAND arrived at Vienna on the Tich ultimo. An article from Trieste, dated 28th July, states, the destruction of the Turkish fleet had given great joy at Missolonghi. It is said 28 ships were taken by the Greeks, who had been also successful on land. VasNA, JULY 27.—Nculliques, 7)j—D.auk Sharb, 780. 72 F . L . THE ICING'S VISIT TO ccoriAND. The departure of his Materrir on his long con• templated visit to his ancient Kingdom of Scotland, which has so long been delayed, at length takes place this day, when his MAJESTY leaves Carlton Home for Greenwich, where every preparation is made tier his embarkation. The expectation that his Marteet would go on Thursday had occasioned a considerate influx of strangers into Greenwich and its neighbont• hood, who continued to increase the whole of yesteta day. The terrace in front of the Hospital was crowled with persons, many of whom had been attracted from town in the expectation of being admitted on board the ROYAL GEOEOE, to inspect the vessel, and see the nature of the accommodations prepared for its Royal owner. The permission to admit stringers on board for that purpose was made most extensively available on Thursday and a few preceding days, when crowds of visitors were seen passing to and from the vessel the whole day long. The approach olthe time fixed for his MAJESTY'S embarkation, however, rendered it necessary to suspend that permission yesterday morn ing, in order that the requisite preparations for the reception of the Royal passenger might proceed with out interruption; and orders were given to admit no strangers without a written order from Carlton Pa lace. The company, therefore, which had gone from town in ignorance of that circumstance, were ;woes. sarily compelled to content themselves with rowing round and surveying the exterior of, perhaps, ore of the most beautifully moulded vessels ever beheld ; and many proceeded to Deptford to view the ROYAL SO. YEREIGN, which was said to be still allowed to admit visitors on board. The rumours which prevailed last evening as to the time . of the KING'S embarkation, considerably augmented the number of strangers, who from day break to dewy eve bent their course to the same point of attraction : and this morning, so early 23 six o'clock, the town was in motion, and persons proceeding along the road in stage and hackney. coaches, private carriages, on horseback, in carts, with and without springs, &c. &c. In short, every species of vehicle usually employed on such occasions were put in requisition. At Deptford and Green wich flags are flying from the churches and i thcr public buildings ; and at the Dover Castle the Unicn Jack waves, with an additional flag suspended across the road with the motto—" GOD save the Knia." At seven o'clock, a travelling carriage, loaded with passengers and luggage destined to accompany the Royal squadron, arrived( at the Old George, at Green wich; and at this time the walk in front of the }Io%. pital was crowded with spectators, anxiously in quiring at what hour his MAJESTY might be expected. The ROYAL SOVEREIGN and the PRINCE RtGENT Royal yachts, with the frigates, brigs, and sloops, composing the Royal squadron, have been cs:c'erzd to stand out in the Nore, so early as eight o'clock this morning. They will there await the arrival of the ROYAL GEORGE, and the Comet, and James Watt, steam-vessels, which are engaged to be in attendance on the ROYAL GEORGE. Several of his MaJestv's attendants go on boaid the Comet, and, in the event of an unfavourable breeze, or no breeze at all, his MAJESTY will leave the Royal yacht, and embark on board the James Watt, and continue with her during the whole voyage. By this arrangement it is ex pected his MAJESTY will arrive at, Leith on Men day afternoon, and will, if possible, make his public entry on the same day, it being the anniversary of his birth-day, and also corresponding with the day on which his MAJESTY landed last summer in the har bour of Howth, in Ireland. The ROYAL Gamma still remains opposite Green wich Hospital. Two of the Royal carriages, and all the luggage, were put on board the James Watt, steam packet, We observed Sir CHARLES PAGET on board her, giving orders. This fine boat creates very gene. ral admiration. Her engine is on the largest scale, 120 horse power. The Deptford-yard steam beat has also concluded all her preparations, and is ready to join the squadron. A great number of Noblemen's and Gentlemen's cutters have made a rendezvous at Greenwich, equitt for sea. Of these fast-sailing boats it is supposed that a fleet of at least a hundred sail will attend the Royal squadron in its progress. The City barge is to attend with the Corporation as far as the River Medway. One of the llatwgite steam-boats has been employed to tow their barge down the River. The Aquatic Procession will continue for several miles, winding beautifully between the serpentiziug banks of the Thames, which " flows on with pony of waters unwithstood," unto its junction with the Medway, where the limits of the City jurisdiction end, and from which point the Corporation barges will of course return. It is, however, expected that several private individtLils will prolong their trip a ith the Royal squadron until it reaches the seas Every necessary preparation has been made at Greenwich Hospital to receive his MAJESTY; but the arrangements have been entirely undertaken by the Admiralty. Earl S C.VINCENT, wishing the Union J.hk once more to wave o'er his time-honoured head, will receive his MAJESTY on board the ROYAL Geoes;r: after which the Union Flag will give place to the Royal Standard, and the veteran tar will take his leave. The gallant Admiral repaired yesterday to Greenwich Hospital, and after inspecting the ar rangements made fir his MAJESTY'S reception, dined • 11 4L FETE AT VAUXtg#oe7T: s 4 k , IS MAJESTY'S piatti ; MONINAINI2TeAutit/nT. joyful event pill W celebised 4 . 011 e GALAS ow 40. en alf thew Garienkolitt- Grand Colleen ot Vocal and laistenneliital)/u- Let of which will conclude with ths crieferated - 1 st of " Goo save the King," with additional
