At Alois, In the department of the Gard, it was 'Oohed to de-, stroy the Temple of the Protestants, but this act of fury was prevented from being carried into execution., The Protestants, however, have been obliged to shut up their Temple, and to renounce their worship for some time. The Prefect of the Departrnaut of. Ven cisme repaired on the sth of this month to Carpen 4res, for the psepose of setting at liberty a number of peruses in custody on account of opinions. On his setors to hvignon, the people testified their dis coolant. Tho Prefect ordered one of the instigators to be arrested, but this gave rise to an insurrectipn, la which he was ha the greatest danger.

THE STATESMAN. r----- LONDON: ItTIMISDAT, DtilIKSlll 48, 1815. • - Paris Papers of Friday and Saturday last have been received. We submit every article of interest t►hich they contain. The subject of LAVALErneII escape seems to mo nopolize all attention. He has not been retaken, notwithstanding all the vigilance of the Government, which by a show. of continued diligence in searching fur the fugitive, and by written defences in the Papers, appears to manifest great anxiety to do away the idea of having connived at his escape, or allowed any tutnecessary delay in the execution of the sentence. We give a translation of one of these justificatory articles, which says the pronunciation of the sentence was transmitted on Monday to the Keeper of the Seals (BAnst 11.eueors),,stt tace:reed, at the same time, the " demand if a dully," *pea what ground is not stated. This de. ruessa vas presented to his Majesty next day, Tues. •esf; so that, says the French Paper, there could be DO resalt, nor any turn given to this necessary and legal delay till yesterday, when the culprit ►bscond ed. The mystery of " the delay end the demand" is far from being removed by this illustration. No such delay was allowed to NaY, after his sentence was pronounced. Itappears that at the date of these Papers, Madame LkvAr,yrsz, though greatly indisposed, was still de !aimed in prison. The particulars of the escape, mhich are given in tbe Journals, are almost precisely the use as those etrownsuicated in the private letters. The Bight of LAVALITTI has not had a beneficial effect ou the Fonds—they have rather declined since the lea quotation. Whet is worse, it is affirmed that the escape, though halted with satisfaction as a de. fest to the Government by all who disapprove of its measures, has tended greatly to heighten the dissa tisfaction among the military at the executions that have taken place, as they seem to consider it the re. suit of a system to protect all civil functionaries, and let the weight of vengeance fall exclusively on the military. It was believed that the Report on the Amuesty Bill would be made on Saturday.' "It was expected with impatieuce. Some more of our troops have left Paris. We now , proceed to our extracts. PARIS, DEc. %l.—Some persons have been alto- Malted, and have, perhaps, even complained of the' slowness of a famous cause which has just been de cided with the most awful solemnity. This slowness arose from the rigorous observance of all the fortis of the legal authority, from which it was judged the less proper to deviate the more celebrated the mi•! veinal was, and the more evident the crime. The I same regularity, the same attention to forms had been shown in the trial of M. lavalette. There were no delays but those of justice anti the law. The pronunciation of the sentence was transmit ted on Monday to the Keeper of the Seals, who re ceived at the same time the demand of a delay (rursis). The following day this demand was presented to his Majesty. . There could not then be any resu l t, Rey turn given to this necessary and legal delay till yesterday, the very day en which the prisoner ab sconded Alto justice, or from clemency. The following are some details of the escape of M. Leftism, which we ca, eismer i for as being exact :-- "Yesterday, at baffled then o'clock, Madame de . _ ____._ -s +yam I • .• ~, f • f 1 7.7 ++ ; ~~t ,- S'PATOM44.I4: Lamle* iiccofepnled Gloat by her daughter of 12 y mi s s of agar asuLlett oleofelt ittihdobly 4otieetl the ' rgeriel " • oilr . ,41eiggiff. semi STATESvhAON par t i cularly i.ltl. and slipettaii 'representing the proscribed nimble's' * h .

The previous communication bar been made to the bureaux, and they have oneriimously expressed a desire that . the proposal shoulii be publicly read.— I therefore incite M. de Sermaitons to present him. self at the Tribune. We take the liberty to remark, that the complete occupation of large English barracks by Gerano troops, does not appear to be very consistenket the present period. An establishment has been formed at Bexhill, is Sussex, where the boy recruits belougieg to the bri. gads of Foot Guards are trained for duty, under a Field Officer.—A General Order has been iostel, pro hibiting soldiers Whose eer 'kin. ex pire in the period of ,two years, from being sent to the regiments in India.

DE SEDWAISON2.—I propose to the Chamber to require from the Ministers of Justice and General Police the information which •may Teem to it neces sary, r•gpecting the escape of Ltralette, By late aceoents received from Buenos Ayres, it appears that ,tis Swinish army in Upper Peru,• act ins ander the orders of Puzuzr,,t, is situated in three points, viz. Condo, Challspsta, and Oruro, and his troops amount to 5000. Ilis position, con. sequently, is about 33 leagues north-west of Potosi. 'The Buenos Ayres army, under Romnzati, occupf ,lng principally the latter placeonnount to 6000, independent of the auxiliaries, with which he might unite as many as 14,000, but a gnat proportina would be without fire-arms. When the Spanigh General entered Cusco, he hung Puit scinuA, an Indian Chief, descended from the incient Incas of Peru. It appears there are at present fifty regiments of British Militia embodied and doing duty, exclusively of the Irish corps ; how much longer Government may fled it expedient to protract the return of this lame to their respective cowl' ies we cannot tell; bat Item know thditscoreptete state of these regiments, the manner in which.they are reeruited, and the peculiar nature of the establishment, do nut only impose a heavy expense generally on the Public, but are the rattan of local and parochial burthens, attended by consequences highly injurious to the Agricultural In. terest, which at the present moment demands the most favouvaltle consideration.
