PEACE IN INDI%. is with pleasure we announce the termination of • the war with Nepaul, by the exchange of the ratifica tions of the Treaty of Peace on the 14th of March. Our army did not tale the field till the end of February— Same sharp actions took place. It is said that we were in one of them taken by surprise, as accounts from Paris stated, in the first instance—but that we soon recovered, and repulsed the enemy ; who, in the last action on the xd March, lost in killed and wounded about 600 men.— . Our loss was comparatively small.

Miguel is to be tried before a Court of Assize on the 210. Cranky died with conint:e, firmness, resignation, and piety. He wished to walk to the place of ewention barefooted. On ascending the scaffold he turned round to the people and said —" I am guilty, bat a misled criminal and the victim of thin wretch (pointing to the Surgeon). Pray to (sod tier my soot and help my unfortunate children. Then turning to the soldiers, he added —" Comratles.l ard..nt • ly wish that my example may be useful to you, and present yon Ii out listening to the persuasions of these wicked :nen who wish for nothing but your loin.' Having embraced his son and his Confessor, and asked the benediction of the latter, he underwent his sentence. Bonnery dated death with that audacity a hick can only be derived horn guilt. As to Ituaitx, the surgeon, his death eseited only horror. The fear of death had ‘o deprived hint of strength, that he was 0:/ligell to 1w removed in a cart ; and he did not cease to voci ferate all the way front tile prison to the place of execution. We find, that a very serious disturbance took place lately in the neighbourhood of Toulouse, occasioned by the high price of bread. A party of the National Guards were sent to quell the tumult ; but, instead of performing that service, they joined the rioters. The riot was after wards suppressed; and twelve of the National Guard were arrested and thrown into prison. It appears, that an increase in the price of corn had taken place through out France, arising from apprehensions that the approach ing harvest may be defective both in quality and quantity. It is to be hoped, that those fears are exaggerated ; for it would be difficult to conceive a greater calamity than high prices fltr the necest.trics of life, at a moment when the stagnation of trade has reduced, on the part of the labour ing classes, the means of purchase. A scene took place on the .h2d inst. at Ghent, which chews in a worse light titan we suspected, the state of our relations, commerial and political, with the Continent.— " The day before yesterday," says the Journal of that place," the workmen employed in our manufactoriot made, on the Corn-market, an awl° da fe of English mer , chandize." Of the boa-lire, the Editor of the Newspaper . . . ....... , highly approves ; though he is rather inclined to think that the mob were a little out of order in tearing the clouths off the backs of passengers, to add to their auto da f —This Gentlemen is very candid ; but we would ask him, whether he would equally have commended the peo ple in and about Leirsie, I.l:td they in their patriotism thought proper to burn the British goods : , ent over from{` this country, by liberal pulylie subscription, to cover their nakedness, and save them from starvation? The su-diseint Patriots of 1816 were executed on the 27th ult. Pleignier, Tolleron, and Carbonnean were taken to the Place de Greve. Pleignier resisted much when they took off his coat, but the two others were calm and resigned. Their right hands were first cut off, and they were then guillotined. Their remains were buried in the church-yard of Vaugirard. General Mouton I)uvernet, condemned to death by the Council of War at Lyons, was shot on Saturday, for serving Buonuparte after professing loyalty for the present King of France. This General surrendered himself vo luntarily. He was provided ut the time with passports, and all the means of escape ; but he was unwilling to leas•: his country, and threw himself on the mercy of Louis XVIII. ; the execution of the unhappy man shews with what success.—Several conspirators have also suffer ed death at Carcassonne, in the Province of Jude. The French Papers, speaking of the approaching har vest, say, the crops have not suffered materially us ,41„, from the unfavourahle state of the weather ; they ‘sint only a few days of sun-shine; hut the hope is expressed, that their good King will reconcile the French to the elements, who, it is whia, appear to he angry with them for their past •(revolutionary) offences !—This disserta tion upon the crops, the elements, and the good King, is pious, .philosophical, and local. What a present the High Allies bare made to the French nation, in giving them them Sovereign who Las SO much influence on the seasons ! _ _ Lavtulette is said to have reached the United States. The wife and family ofJoseph Buonaparte have arrived at New York from Havre, in the Freuehahip Good Fleury, together with 40 other passengers. Jerome Buonaparte, Ex-King of Westphalia, has been created Duke of Montibrt by his father-in-law, the King of Wirtemberg. We learn by the Hamburgh papers, that the King of Prussia was to be at Carist — iul .n the t::31.; the Enipe ror of Austria was to set out for the same place on the 17th. A Gen. Francischetti, who had signalixed himself by his devotion to Murat, having followed him in his last expedition, had since escaped the pursuit of justice by taking refuge in the mountains of Calabria. He was -thy Gr -vbeo th; litX;tlST 5. suffer the fate of his fallen Leader. This decision being laid befitre the King, his Majesty, with his own hand, added the following minute to it :—" The guilty who gives himself to law, confides in the mercy, nut in the justice, of the Prince. There is no soom for his trial.— Let him retire into Sicily."-8o grateful was this act of clemency to the Public, that on his Majesty's appearing shortly after at the Theatre des Florentini, he was hailed by unusual acclamations of joy. Some Parisian Journals speak with no inconsiderable share of self-fluttery of the number of English youth of both sexes who have been recently placed in French Schools. Their vanity in this respect we deem quite pardonable. The shame is on us and on our children. Are the means for the education of the children of the , . decent or opulent ranks of society wanting is their own country, in which every practicable mode is in the pro gress of adoption for instructing the lowest classes, and from whence they are diffiising themselves over other parts of the European community ? Are the mastery of the pronunciation of the French: tongue, and the ac quisition of French manners, such important brandies of the education of a boy or girl of Britain ? Is cheapness of tuition h sufficient set-off against the dangers of fo reign habits and feelings, and of principles and sentiments unpatriotic and tin-British ? Some misunderstanding appears to have taken place between our countrymen and the citizens of the United States on the Lukes. The depositions of five commun. ders of American trading schooners are given ; stating, that they had been fired at, detained, mid searched by British cruisers; and that the pretext was, looking out for deserters from the Royal Navy. Trade is very dull, and distress great, in all parts of the United States. An order was received on Wednesday, nt Woolwich, for 836 pieces of ordnance to be shipped for Canada.— Conveyance fur these, and some other stores, has been ad vertised for, in the following Notice issued on Thursday from the Transport Board: .. Tratosport o'er, Juty 31 st, 1516. " Wanted, conveyance of the mailer mentioned stores, %is. 5,200 tons of ordnance stores to Canada. "'fenders to be received on Saturday, the 3tl of August next." ._ _ _ . 'Phis intelligence excited a considerable sensation in the City, in which it was considered us bearing an hostile aspect. The Courier, however, deprecates any apprehen sion of this kind ; observing, that these supplies must be necessarily wanted in the ordinary course of things, and that this is the properseason for sending them out. A The Americans lose no time in adding to their navy, ',Aid in accumulating hands. About the middle of Juno the schooner Erie, tf about 800 tons, was Lunched at Tack Rock, int:tided for the Lakes. Letters from Madrid of the Ist ult. state, that King Ferdinand VII. had gone to drink the mineral waters of Sacedon, near Cuenva. It is reported that his Majesty contracted some disorder whilst at Valency, which it is expected these waters will remove ; and that this was thought adviscable previous to the arrival of his spouse. Extract of u letter from Barcelona, dated July 1.4 :- " A Deputation has gone from this city, to pray his Ma jesty to prevent the introduction of English merchandize, which destroys Spanish industry, and produces nothing to the revenue, because the Custom-house Officers are easily corrupted by the English traders. With the sante view of favouring Spanish industry, an order has been issued to prevent the entrance of foreign artisans in matters of luxury and fashion." _ _ _ I.etters from Cttracon, of the 20th of M,iv, mention, that th. Spanish squadron having collected in Puerto Cavallo, &c. consisting of two brigs and five schooners, attacked Bolivar 's naval threes, near the island of Mar garita ; when, Mier a severe conflict, the Independents, commanded by Brion, captured the whole of the Spanish flotilla, and took them into the principal port of the said island. The troops Bolivar had landed in Margarita at tackal the 800 Spaniards who had intrenched themselves in Pumpatar, took their position by assault, anti put them all to the sword. Paraguay has, according to report, formed a separate Government of itself, independent, and against those of Buenos Ayres and Monte Video ; therefore, at present, there are three parties formed one against the other, and each wishing to govern all three. An immense mortar, used by the French at the siege of Cadiz, has been brought to this country, and is about to be placed on a platform, which is building in the Park, opposite the Horse Guards—it carries a shell three In addition to the reduction in the number of troop in each regiment of cavalry, and of companies in each regiment of foot, it is said to be intended to abolish the barrack establislnnent. The weather is a constant subject of remark ; and speculations are often made on a supposed change in the character of the seasons.
