THE NATIONAL REGISTER. LONDON : SUNDAY, JULY ,s. WE have received the Paris Papers of Thursday. Gen. Mouton Duvernet has been found guilty of treason, and sentenced to death. His wife implored the King's cle mency ; but the King replied, that he could not grant her request, much as he pitied her situation. These papers mention the liberation of Messrs. Wilson, Hutchinson, and Bruce ; adding, that Captain Hutchin son set off immediately to join his regiment ; and that Sir Robert Wilson and Mr. Bruce were to quit Paris for Eng land in a week. Another horrible case has been taken cognizance of by the Court of Assizes at Nismes. On the 3d ofJuly, 1815, uhe town of Uses had hoisted the Bourbon standard. Se veral of the neighbouring Communes immediately rose to punish it for its loyalty. A Gentleman of Uses, of the name of Nicholas, with somekend'ku - mes whom he had or ganized, was deputed to the rebels to induce them to re turn to their homes. At the bridge of Arpaillargues he came up with them, and, getting off his horse, assured them he came in perfect peace. One of the rebels bade him cry out, Vice ampereur !--" Never," exclaimed the gallant Royalists, " the Bourbons, or death !" A sabre blow was immediately aimed at him. He warded it off:- A coward rebel from behind immediately discharged his musket at him, and he fell dead. The rebels pillaged him, and seized a fine sabre, which the Sub-Prefect at Uzes declared should be the reward of him who should be proved to have been the assassin. Two actually contend ed fin. the Prize ! The assassins had hitherto remained unmolested. Three of them, however, were at length apprehended and brought to trial. One was condemned to death, and another acquitted by the Judges, seven of the Jury finding him guilty, and five not guilty. Two thirds of the Jury, we believe, must pronounce a person to be guilty before the Judges can sentence him to punish ment. The trial of Gen. Mounton Duvernet terminated on the 19th. He was found guilty ; sentence—Death. His wife arrived on Monday in Paris to solicit the clemency of the King ; and appeared the same day in the Saloon of the Marshals, at the Thuilleries, accompanied by her daughter. She threw herself at his Majesty's feet, who is stated to have been extremely affected by their grief, but rejected the appeal to his clemency.—At this distance of time from th.; offence, and after the power of the Govern ment has been so fully shewn, we can see no utility in this or similar trials. The sacrifices already made, and the length of time, might safely admit some relaxation in the course of vindictive justice. The famous Billaud de Varennes, who was transported to Cayenne soon after the fall of Rabspierre, and supposed to he * dead, arrived at New York on the 15th of May from Cayenne. The French Functionaries have been forcing the Pub lic, who contributed to the loan of 100 millions, to make a rolunlary renunciation of their claims.—The Minister of Finance has been obliged to reprimand these zealous agents of Government. Fouche, it is said, is going to Carlsbad, where the re ported Congress of Kings who signed the Holy Alliance is to be held. The pretext of this journey is the indis position of his wife, who had been advised by her Phy sicians to proceed to that celebrated watering-place ; but those who are acquainted with the active part which Follette had taken in the great events of our time will probably ascribe it to some object connected with this royal meeting. The Moniteur contains a long official article, respecting the organization of the National Guard of the kingdom. By this new Ordinance every Frenchman, between the ages of twenty and sixty, is bound to serve. However, those who puss the age of fifty are only liable to serve in the sedentary guard. The Officers are chosen by the King for five years, on the recommendation of the Civil Power; and the whole of this great national armament is placed undur the constitutional controul of the Minister of the Interior. Admiral Lord Exmouth, with the whole of his squa dron, passed Portland on the evening of the 26th, with a fine breeze from the N. W. which continued sufficient time for his Lordship to char the Channel, The expe pedition is admirably fitted out in all respects; and, we predict, will effectually fulfil the objects o its mission. Algiers, though strong, is more exposed to a British squadron halt Tunis. It contains about ICO,OOO inha bitants. Tunis, though by no means so populous, is stronger, its fortifications being three miles in eircum timenee, and standing nearly six miles from the sea, but communicates with it by means of a lar;,,e lake, navigable for bouts. It is commanded, however, by the surround- JULY RA. ing hills; and though large sums have lately been laid out upon its works, yet the Citadel, begun by Charles V. is but weak, and is exposed to batteries from a rising ground :war it. The first place of attack would, indeed, be the Port, or Goletta, which is strongly fortified against a naval assault, and openly exposed to bombardment from a hill close by the ruins of ancient Carthage; but if this place is destreyed, it will be many years before their piratical shipping can be secured from an enemy. We understand from the Paris I'apers, that the Alge tines, afraid of a bombardment, have sent into the inte rior their most valuable effects. It is reported, that Ministers, yielding to the neces. shies of the country, have resolved upon a reduction of the army to the amount of 10,000 men. It is stated, that the health of the Right Hon. Geo. Rose is very seriously affected. - - - - The Board of Excise have directed, that informations be laid against all persons selling beer or spirituous li. quors without licences, at fairs, &t•• As a proof of the defalcation in the Revenue in the article of Wine, we understand, that the Orphan Tax alone (received by the Corporation of the City of London) on that article, for the last half-year, which used to ave rage 22001. did not exceed 7001. By an Act of Parliament passed at the close of the Session, the Receiver-General is authorised to receive the half-year's Property-tax now clue, by two instalments, ex tending the last payment to the sth of January, 1 8 17, provided the first moiety be now paid. By a similar Act; the tidlowig reduced rates of duty have been granted iOr two years on huslraadry horses, in lieu of the present as. sessment of 17s. fid. each horse : A farm under £7O per attn. Ss. each horse. Do. £7O and der £lOO as. 1)o. £lOO and under £l5O Ts. Do. £l3O and under £•200 los. Oh And the above persons are allowed oe , casionally to ride a husbandry horse without paying the ritling-horse duty. A tenant quitting his farm, at or after Midsummer, will, on appeal, be relieved from one moiety of the annual as sessment. It is with great pleasure we state, that Government discountenances the demands mule on the Merchants for arrears of duty alleged to have accrued several years ago.

By the death of the Earl of Mountnorris, a vacancy occurs iu the Irish Representative Peera t ,or. Thursday the new Vauxhall iron bridge was opened for carriages with much ceremony, in the presence of• the Treasurer and Commitee of Proprietors, and a number of persons of respectability. The water was covered with boats and spectators. A Society is forming at Deal, to be called " The Fish erman's Friend," for the purpose of curing herrings, ac cording to the Dutch methotl, for home and foreign consumption. It is intended to put up 12000 barrels in the approaching season, and thus give employment to a large portion of the starving poor. The remains of the late venerable Bishop of Lambe were interred in the parish church of Bowness, on the banks of %Vindermere. His Lordship's tenants preceded the hearse ; and the pmcession wits closed by the car riages of a number of families of the first respectability. Sir W. Burroughs, we hear, has discovered a new and easy mode of finding the longitude at sea and land, from an observed altitude of the moon's enlightened limb, taken about three or four hours before or atter her passing the meridian. He practised it, we understand, during his late voyage from India with the utmost success. An elopement from Tunbridge Wells took place last week; the parties, Miss Eliza Ann Puttle. only child of a deceased servant of the East India Company, and a young gentleman named Wakefield, about 19, nephew of the Chancery Barrister of that name. The young lady is possessed of a fortune of 50,0001. and is a Ward of. Chancery; where the affair is to be investigated, at the instance of the young lady's mother. Mr. Serjealit Onslow wu sworn in a King's Serjeant on Tries day morning in the Court of Chancery, Lincoln s Inn; and Mr. Murryatt end Mr. Gurney as King's Counsel. The tNo latter Gentlemen took their seats within the Bar of the Court sf king's litneh. PREFERRED. The Rev.
