Every publication, sale, or offering to sale, exposition, or distribution, without the previous au thority of the Government, of engraved or litho. graphed drawings, shall, for that offence alone, be punished by imprisonment from three days to six months, and u fine of from 10 to 500 francs, without prejudice to the criminal prosecutions to which the subject of the design rosy give occasion. 11. Article 10 of the law of the 9th of June is common to all the provisions of the present title, in. so far as they apply to the proprietors or editors of a journal or periodical writing. TITLE 11.-Of PROSECUTION. 12.—1 n the case of offence tuwards the Chambers, or either of them, by one of the means pointed out in the law of the 17th of May, 1819 s offendad Chamber may, on the mere complaint of one of its members, if it do not prcter to authorize a prosecu tion by the ordinary course, order the accused to be brought to the bar. After he shall have been heard, or duly summoned, it will condemn him, if there be cause, to the penalties enacted by the laws. The sentence shall be executed on the order of the Presi dent of the Chamber. cause its virulence had sensibly diminished. The number of deaths on the 18th, 19th, and 20th, amounted to 81, 82, 53.

M. Lopes, a celebrated physician of Bereciens, writes, under the same date, that there were only eight per _ tients, and that they were all persons who had lately entered the city. Another letter from Barcelona, dated November 22, gives satisfactory intelligence which we hasten to make known. " The malady is at an end ; the number of deaths is only between 20 and 25. The French physicians departed two days ago ; they re ceived the most affecting adieus. A hope had been entertained that Dr. Bally would remain till the 30th with the young surgeon Jouarry, as he had expressed his intention of doing, but on the 18th, either from the effect of his multiplied cases, or in consequence of fatigue from his attendance on the hospitals, he was again attacked with contagion, and for a whole day excited the most lively alarm for his recovery. His state being a little improved on the 19th, and permitting him to be moved, his courageous friends, Francois and Poriset, forced him into quarantine in spite of his entreaties and tears. It is difficult to form an idea of the kindness and generous devotion of this wotthy apostle of hu manity." ODISSA, Nov. 9.—For some days put the au thorities have been in possession of intelligence that the Persians have invaded the Turkish frontier.— This circumstance has produced a strong sensation. and from it all the Greeks who are here predict the fall of t Ottoman empire. We have letters from le of the 2d inn, They assure us that the Grand Seignor bas ordered all the Persians who were in the capital to be thrown into dungeons ; that a part of the Janissaries had received orders to proceed to Asia against the Persian invaders : and finally, that messengers had ben despatched to Epirus, with orders of recall fur the Pacha who was proceeding against AIL This Pacha is not disgraced, his Highness has contarred on him the command of the troops destined to repel the awash' of the son of the Schah of Persia.

(Signed) LOUIS. (Countersigned) H. DE SERRE. Tuileries, Nov. 7. We hear from Smyrna, the 28th of October th* every day there are massacres of the Christians. VIENNA, Nov. 22.—The Regency of Lower Austria has published a circular against the sect of the Carbonari, in which it is said that their object is to overturn existing Governments. Those who may enter it are therefore declared guilty of high treason. FRANKFORT, Nov. 27.—We are impatient here to learn what effect the return of Prince Metternich to Vienna will have on the public funds. Fur two days we have vainly expected letters, announcing a rise in the Austrian funds. Already we begin to apprehend that the assurances of our bankers, who, on the faith of Prince Metternich, persist in main taining that the peace will not be disturbed, will be belied by the event. We had learnt by former letters from St. Peters burgh, that Lord Strangtbrd, who for some time has exercised great influence over the Divan, bad trans mitted to Count Nesselrode, by English diplomatic agents residing at Petersburgh, a memoir in support of the note which the Reis Effendi have lately sent to the Russian cabinet, a inemair in which the cause of the Turks is defendal by the ordinary arguments, In reply, the Emperor commanded Count Lieven, his niiiiister at London, to communicate to the Bri tish Cabinet the ultimatum of which mention has so often been wade, and to assure it at the saute time, that his Imperial Majesty entertained the most s i,:- cere and ardent wishes that Lord Strangford be able, by the preponderating influence wbieh he enjoys, to determine the Divan to accept the pm positions of Russia. It is generally thought, lioa - ever, at Petersburgh, that the interference of tl:e British Cabinet in the differences between the Court of Russia and the Porte is hide agreeable to the former. Insult given to a minister of the religion of the r:rte, or of one of the religions legally recognised in France, in the exercise of his functions, shall be pit by the penalties enacted by article lit of the i•a . S.2 tit LW.

In case of repetition, or where the account given shalt be orensive to either of the Chamber,, ur to one of the Peers or Deputies, or injurious to the tribunal, or u►agistrute, or to the jurors or tt•itnes se3 , the editor of the journal elan be farther condemned to an imprisotiment of from one to three years. .0" ' • • `W. 4' e The price of provisions in Penzance market is perhaps lower than in any other part of the cuLtit,.y.
