The second Ordonnance appoints a com mittee of officers to examino the conduct of all officers who have served during the usurpation. No officer is to occuprany post in the army unless the committee reports favourably upon his .conduct.. The Duke of Belluoo if president of the committee. In the Chamber of Peers on Monday there was a good deal of discussion. The Dnke dr Vauguyon propoed that the Chamber should speedily direct its attention to four great points—Th, Liberty of the subject ; the Liberty of the Press ; the Responsibility of Ministers; and the Or• ganization of the Electoral Colleges. No opinion was pronounced by the Chamber upon the llnke'sproposition. The publication in the papers I,l' the debates in the Chant. ber has attracted the notice of the Peers, and a entnmissiost been annointed to revise the Regulation of the Chamber upon the subject. By the Constitution the debates of the Chamber are•to be secret. The Chamber of Deputies was occupied on Tuesday in a Secret Committee in diieussine the law relative to sedi tious speeches. Some amendments were proposed., and the law was referred to a Committee to make a report. Some of the accessory articles of the Convention with the Allied Powers are said to have been ‘ettled on ,Monday; but they relate only to the mode and payment of the Con tributions. By the end of this week every thing was ex pected to be detinitiv.•!y arranged and signed. _ _ Ney has transmitted to each of the Peerc a memorial, La which he denies the jurisdiction of a Council of War, and demands to be tried by the Peers. The Duke of Wellington' Letter to Lord Castlereagh, is given at length in these Papeils. His Grace has had a. long audience of the King and the Duke d'Angouleme. More persons have been taken up for seditious cries. Precautions have been ordered to be taken by the Pre fects and Mayors in delivering passports, paticularly for Paris. In one of the last sittings of the Peers there was a veer warm debate upon the part of the Address which t elate% to measures of justice against criminals. The Duke of Orleans wished to expunge from the Address all the phrases relative to justice, pnniFhment, and. purification. One of the Peers immediately asked his Highness, whe ther he meant to deny that circumstance called nut for se vere measures? This question gave considaable warmth to the debate. Ilead3 became cchaufrees. The Bishop of Langres, Baren S , ..guer, and others, were for measures of justice against state criminals : Lanjuinais urged the ne cessity of moderation, and the desire of security felt by the citizens. (Laujuinais wiis President of Buonaparte'4 Chamber of Representatives!) . The debate closed by re ferring the Address to a Commission. We have already given the Address as it was presented to the King. The French Funds are 57—They have beta rather lower. King Ferdinand has given a fresh proof of merry. in causing the brave aid patriotic Porlier to be hanged un tried. lie probably felt that a trial, when the death of the victim was previously determined on, would only' be a solemn mockery of justice. In that case we may c or gratulate his people on the awakeni.ig of his consciisnce. Porlier's testament, and his affecting letter to his wife ) will be found in another part of our paper.

The Wicial Gazette contains two new Ordminances, which shew that the King begins to consider himself more firmly seated on the throne, or else he would not have adopted treasures which will increase the desperation of two numerous classes, the persons employed in civil offices under Buonaparte and the Qi:iicers who served under him. The first Ordonnance relates to the pensions and salaries granted by the King to persons removed from their places .last year, many of whom returned to their old Macey or accepted irw ones under the Usurper.
