Voo - aript. • LONDON, MONDAY, MARCH 11. Three o'clock, pm. The following are extracts from the Paris papers of Friday lust : . PARIS. AlAnett B.—This day the King presided et the Council of Ministers. Ills Majesty has sent to make inquiry respecting lktonsieur, his august brother, who has a slight in disposi t ion. This evening site missions have net been disturbed. . All is perfectly tranquil. The Journal of Savoy contains the following. tie- tails respecting the earthquake et the 19th of Fe bruary : At Aix they experieneed two succeeding shocks, which lasted about seven seconds. A number of chimneys fell. The waters, impregnated with sul. yhur, were of whitish. grey colour, and they conti• Luca in a state of agitation nearly- two hours. Their temperature did out vary. All the phenomena were the same as those observed at the earthquake which hArpotoill at 'Lisbon in 1755. • At Yenne, where a religious ceremony had called rmtny persons to church, in the moment the preacher Najd in his exordium, " We are Auspended between heaven and hell," a frightful noise was heard. The ..suited roof of the church opened, and a shower of stones and mortar descended on all sides. It is impossible to describe the scene of desolation which stt uck the terrified congregation. Their agitation in te dust, and the dreadful screams uttered in their vish to get to the doors was awful in the extreme ; s:vend were trampled under feet, whilst others gut into holes and corners to escape death. Many per sons arc suiLring under the etiiiet of this event, but only two have received serious wounds, a circum souwe almost incredible. It is remarkable, that the earthquake was felt in three other churches, at the eery moment when the preachers were pronouncing the words uttered by the preacher at Yenne. At la Moue tiervolex the curate announced to his pa rishioners, that if they did not wake haste to do penance, immediate punishment would follcw their, sins. At the same instant the earthquake was felt, anti all the congregation 11:11 upon their knees to Mr ' piore forgiveness of their sins. At the college of • ~ 4 .;nambrey, in one of the lectures upon death, it was urged that death might strike any one of the pupils • in a month, in a day, and perhaps that instant. At these words the church shook, and the root seemed tailing on the students, who ran precipitately to the dour uttering a cry of terror. TILE NA' IAL EGISTER - - --- By arrangements which have been making for some time, the management of Covent Garden Theatre will be much altered. Mr. Harris, we understand, re•ires from the supreme direction, and is succeeded by Mr. Charles limbic. The latter is supported by a powerful body of friends, who un dertake to discharge the pecuniary claims upon the theatre, and set the concern entirely free, to carry on its operations with greater spirit. A disturbance took place at Buckingham on Sa turday night last, occasioned by a decimation being made from the wages of the men employed by the parish. The stipulated sum is 6d. a day each, fir which they arc expected to be at their work front Mx o'clock in the morning till six in the evening, but not being so punctuol to the time as was re quired, the price of a day's labour was kept back. 110 aI la MOROI:M.—A sasiguittary murder was COM• mitted about ten o'clock on Sionday night, for the pur pose of plunder, at No. 16, Bedford Row, on the person of Mrs. Doitarty, relict of the Sheriff's ollicer of that name, aged ..50 and upwards, and who occupied the house. The old lady lived on tier means, in a very se cluded state, hating no ntlitr parson about her but a gill of the name of Harrison (now in custody), who fetched her errands and slept with her occasionally. She sent the girl Harrison out about nine o'clock to get in some errands, and at ten, or shortly after, the family of Mr. Jesse, tit xt :oar, were alarmed by a rumbling, noise, and which contimung in a house always so quiet excited alarm, and on knocking at the door there was no answer. At length the patrol and watchman obtained an entrance by the itlmlow of the first floor, and on openin4 the door leading to the passage, one of then. stumble:l upon the body of the untortutiate woman, weltering in iser 1.100:1. Prompt medieal.aid was had, hot the spark of life was extinct, as the deceased had bled till no more was left. The wound was on the Side of the throat close to the jugular seta, of several inches in depth, and must have been done with a large knife, or or a similar iitstrutnent, as the orifice was vet) , large.— The hathrroits assassin or assassins left a sack nearly neatly filled with linen, plate, and every thing of value which could be erasped m toe passage, and it is evident they fled with what money they could get the b ick way, appearances denoted, on being al.adied by the knocking of the neighbours, or the cut ry of the patrol. The sack hiss a mark upon it, which it it hoped will lead to the thscovery of the assassin.—There Was also 3 case like that of a stitetto left it) the house, with which no doubt the diabolical murder was petputraied. gel Har rison returned some time after the minder had been dis covered, with her errands, and she beard the dreadful news. She was strictly interrogated, when it turned out there were a few sovereigns in the house. Prom is tat trottpired the girl was lodged in safe custody, and immediate search was made after her lather-in-law. He wars Mood on his wry to his lodging and secured ; and hi. datiehter-in•law are in separate confinement. lit the sack committing the property there was a quantity of short !•has tugs. Robert-street is very secluded, and the neighbotithoott was much agitated during the whole of yesteelay. Last cvening, at sesett o'clock, a 'mein!' of gentlemen, residing in and near liolvert-rtreet, was con vened, for the purpose of concerting measures to facildate the detection of the murderers. it was agreed upon. among other things, to oder a reward of 100 guineas for their appienettaion, and to give every encouragement to the police in their exertions to attain that destratile end. lloNesTY ow A IIAcKNEY.COectiIuAN.—A gentle- Mall lett a small box in a hackney coact), a few nights back, containing gold dust and diamonds, value together about 6501, with some hills of exchange; it w ei a night coact), driven by a young lad, who carried several fares after he set the gentleman down to whom the properly belonged. Toe tollowing, morning the owner of the coach took out ins corn-bags and found the box, and sent it immediately to the I hackney Coach Odice. The gen tleman wept to the oak: to seek for las property, and the C o mmissitmers, agreeable to a clause in the Act of Parliament fur it want mg and eifeottraging the coachmen to honesty, by depositing prop sly in the office lotted in their comdtes, awarded him Ybl., winch the gentleman gladly paid. The coachmen are, by the saute clause, subject to a penalty of 201. if they detain property left ni Use curettes more than four days. Ott Ft iii3V evening an inquest was held before James Egelstone. El. mayor and coroner fur Windsor, on the body of John Waldron, a private in the regiment of Buffs, quartered at that place. He was servant to Capt. of the same regiment, and hiving justly in ntred his toaster's displeasure fur repeated dristikenlie4S, added to the higher fault of obtaining liquor in Captain name. Tins produced a reproof from Capt. G., villa told him he ttttt st bring him to a court or rtial, it he would not keep s ober. Waldron was supposed to has e left the house, but about one o'clock the door of the privy in the yard of Capt. Gillmatt'i , lut!gitigs, at Mr. Thontwood's coach-ollice, Was found fastened, and some alarm bring excited, was broken open. The Maly of IVablron was here disco" erect, life being quite extinct; a musk< t was by his side, with which he that shot - self th r ongh tke heart, haying posited the trizeer with him a stick. It is a remarkable Mei, that the repute wit not heard in the house or by ;my of the llOgilbOUrS.

The hopes indulged in this caantry, with regard to its being the intention of the Cortcs to lower the duties imposed on threign goods, h..ve not been realized ; at present they are so extremely high, that on ne...ty ertieLs, they amount to a total prohibition. The z ccounts both official and private, re,...eked by the l'ortuguese government from Rio Jaleiro, were of a character even more alarming than those received in this country, but the removal of the Prince Royal to Europe, whatever the con sequences might be, was determined upon. lbe soitc:tations of the people of Brazil to induce his Royal Highness to remain among them, had been made known to the Portuguese government, which it .was understood, !nal sent directions to his Royal Highness to decline accepting, in the must positive . aamner these invitations. The extreme violence of the south-west wind on Tuesday night, combined with the natural effixt of an ebb title at nearly the top of the springs, caused the sea on Wednesday morning to recede, along Cte northern shore of the county of Kent, to a greater (list:ince than within the recollection of the ohteat inhabitant .of the cJast, and afforded an op per:iv:lay of obtaining many valuable articles, the remnants pimp:xis anchors, &e. as also other ob jects curiosity, which had been fur a long series ut yews covered ky the waves.
