WII IT -MON rAv —Holliday at all the Public Offices. "el oadcript• LONDON, MONDAY, MAY "22. 27u•cc o'Clock, p. We have received the Paris Papers of Thursday last.. The King it still confined to his apartments, but transacts business daily wi:h his Ministers. The •Gazdie de France repeats the idle rumour that her Majesty the Queen of England is arrived in Paris. M. Bastard d'Estang concluded his Report in the case of Louvel, the assassin, on Wednesday, in the Chamber of Peers. it was expected that the interrogatories would be finished the day fol lowing. It appears that Louvel acted ent►rely from himself without any accomplice. He made a soli .tary visit to Elba when Buonaparte was in that Island, and conceived at Cherbourg the horrid intention of assassinating the King. The Moniteur . officially announces that the Duchess of Berri is in • 'the fifth month of her pregnancy, and enjoys good health.—The Paris Journals are almost wholly filled with the debates on the P4et of the Election Law, • which meets with much opposition, though consi derably modified since its first introduction. M. de Rolland spoke in favour of the proposed alterations. " You fear"' said he, " to introduce the Aristocracy in the Chamber of Deputies, and you refer to Eng land. You forget the English Constitution is is maintained rather by the Aristocracy of the House of Commons than of the House of Lords. The House of Commons is chiefly composed of the sons . and nephews of the Nobility, and it is against this • state of things •that the designs of the Radicals are directed." After some further remarks, the orator voted for the Projel, because the present law is both anti-monarchical and anti-social. M. Dumefylet spoke against the proposition of Ministers. Some other Deputies afterwards addressed the Chamber oft bath sides of the question. It adjourned the decision at six o'clock to the following morning. Extract of a letter sated Venice, May 3 :—" A vessel, which has just arrived here, and which left Corfu as late as the 2fith of April, brings the news that Ali,Pacha, of Janina, was summoned by the Crawl Seigner to proceed to Constantinople; and that upon, his refusing to obey the -summons, he was declared a rebel. Ali, on his side, has declared himself independent of the Porte, and, with the utmost haste, augments his army to defend himself. It is also said, that Ali has declared himself King of Epirus, and bad himself baptised. He had his headquarters at Prevesa, where he caused an oath of fidelity so be taken, not only by the Turks, but by the Greeks, at the same time appealing to all Greece to defend the independence and religion of the nation." • A curious mercantile fraud has been practised at Hamturgh. Several of the most eminent commer cial houses in thLt city received at one and the same time, from fictitious commercial houses at Frankfurt, Gotha. &c. (though not known to be such at the moment) large orders for a particular kind of tobacco. These orders were in part executed, because it was not required that the goods should be sent till the mode of payment was pointed out, which it was in timated would be through the medium of houses of known respectability at Frankfort. It appeared af terwards, however, that this experiment was tried in order to cense a demand fur that particular kind of tobacco of which the contrivers of the trick had an ample stock, and of which they thus hoped to dispose at a high price. It does not appear with what success this manoeuvre was attended. A subscription was set on foot, in September lust, in . Calcutta, for supplying the inhabitants of Pe oairn's Island with implements of husbandry uda other useful articles Those interesting people are the descendants of the mutineers of his Majesty's ship Bounty, and were visited a short time since by Cupt. Iletidemon, on his voyage from Valparaiso to Calcutta. He is now proceeding again to Chili, in command of the Hercules, and proposes calling at I'itcairn's Island with the articles which have ken purdiaketl under Lis direction •for the use of its inhabitants.

Wolse. ley was sent off in custody from the Kings Bench prison, and lodged in the gaol of Abingdon at two o'clock on that day. The utmost attention was paid to his convenience and comfort by the persons ap- pointed to conduct him to his destination. Mr. HUNT.—The following is a copy of a letter received in town from Mr. Hunt:— " Ilchestcr, Thursday morning. " I arrived at my de -finatim and entered the inner door of my dungeon last night at ten o'clock, having been taken from the King's Bench at four o'clock in the morning. We travelled &distance of 130 miles in IS hours. It is needless to inform you, who are 30 well acquainted with the innate habits of our masters, that I only received about four hours notice of my departure ; end even that was not communicated till after the doors were closed, so that it was rendered impossible for me to communicate to my distressed family, to save them the mortifi cation of inquiring, in vain, for me in the morning. I slept seven hours, and awoke perfectly refreshed ; and in such spirits and health as have enabled me to commence my no& of incarceration not only with fortitude, but with cheerfulness—a practical proof that the inhabitant of a straw bed, rums when eat efron: Me society of his dearest friends, and locked within M, walls ola grated dungeon , if bless ed with conscious rectitude, is sure to obtain more substantial enjoyment than . My that thought induced me involuntarily to exclaim to the walls of my dungeon, 'What would the hobbling poor cripple or the carbuncled give to enjoy such a night as I have passed ?—To be brief, the Governor of this his Majesty's gaol of Detester bears the =erecter of a humane man ; and 1 have as yet no reason to doubt the truth of it, as he appears dis posed to do every thing that the strict rules Vila prison discipline will admit to make those who are put under his are as comfort able as the nature of their situations will permit. Be pleased to inform all enquiring friends, that I am in perfect health, and look forward to the completion of my 912 days of inarceration, not only with dimness, but with the greatest co sure cheerfulness. Parson Harrison arrived in Chester on Wednesday night last, by the mail, in the custody of Mr. Hud son, constable of the castle. He appeared to be io very good spirits, and conversed some time at the Post-office door with a stranger, who waited the ar rival of the coach. The whole period of impri sonment to which he is sentenced, is three years and a halt: SHIP NEWS.
