APRIL 11. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. FRENCH PAPERS. Achtt. G.—Yesterday, after mass, there was a arid reception at the floral Palace. Amongst the p..r.ttages received hr the King, we're retnarked several ot the newly created Peers. Theysurney of his Majesty to St. Cloud will, it is sit!, take place earlier titan usual, and at the coin- Liencement of next month ; he will prolong; his stay there to the month of Aiognsr, on acconnt of the very considerable alterations, lkc. which the Royal apart. toetits at the Tuileries indispensably require. On Sunday last, Marshal Jourdan, who is completely recovered from the effects of his late accident, had the honour of paying his min to the King. Lard ‘Vhitwortli arrived in Pal is on Sunday last. A letter front statei, that the Duke de Mont fort (Jerome Bonaparte) has, obtained permission to hate a home in that city for the inirpose of occasional residence. . . . Accounts from Offenbach mention, that the Count de l.as Cases has taken, near that town, a house with a garden, for cite year, and that he lives there in great re trremetit with his family. Ile receives no either, but his immediate friends and some of the inhabitants of Frank furt. A report was circulated, that some 4 CMOs who are considered as secret friends of Bonaparte had come a great distance to see :NI. de Las Cases, but it was void of foundation. It is said that certain 61 his friends have been etuleao touring to induce him to take tip his re sidence in Istatoce, but that he petseveringly rejects that proposition. The woman nartied Bancal was exposed. the 31st of March, at nine (o'clock in the morning, at the Piaci de Toulouse, with three men condemned to be branded. A detachment of infantry and a gtiard of cavalry, formed in a circle around the scaffold, kept out with difficulty the curious, who hail collected in crowds to the place of punishment. The Place Royale, and the aveiluei of the adjacent streets, could not contain them. . White be holding this woman-, every individnal recalled the details of the frightful crime in which she had been au accom pita, and the still more horrible one she had meditated. We are assured that she shed teen oh hearing the cries of malediction of which she was the object. At ten o'clock she was branded, and recondticted to prison. Some dogs of a peculiar race are coming from the coast of Terra Nova. These leinials are trainek it is said, to sate persons from dints/M . llg; they leap with ra pidity to a great distance in the watt*, and dive In the depth of several toises to bring to land person[, who have had the misfortune to fall intothe water. The obsequies of I.ord Dormer were celebrated on the 4th instant in the Church of St. Ruch. lint Lordship hid completed his (loth year. He died of a stroke of apoplexy and paralysis, with both of which he teak conjointly attacked about a month ago. He had the geod fortune to remain perfectly eenSible to the bit mo ment, of which he availed hinottlf to solicit every spi ritual comfort, which he received with an edifying piety. He had led an 'lndium ohrictian life. Mild and amiable in dispositio n , affable, and polished by educa tem, disinterested in hii affairs, always noble in his conduct; of these who approached him, the greater remitter had reason to praise him, none to complain of him. I lit death is a great lost to his friends, by. whom he was honoured and esteentede—to his relatives, whose heart he possessed, by his obliging and delicate atten tions—and the poor, of whom he was the compassionate father and benefactor. The family of Lord I)ormer, always professing the Catholic religion t lost the greater part of their ions ileges in the reign of Charles H., at the unfortunate era when the Catholic Lords, unable to Tt. coneile their principles to the new bill directed against therm, renounced their seats in the upper house to pre rate the integrity of their faith. News from Malta states, that from the 7th to the 10th tilt, a terrible tempest ravaged that island. Various ships, at anchor in the principal pun, were upset, and the ves sels which were at a certain distance trout the coast dile appeared. The damages esuied by this pie are Otimated at two Millionseterling. Yesterday there *is a public sitting of the Chamber of Depwits, The elder of the day called for the dis cussion of theperoer of law relative to the monopoly of vibrato, which, after a short debate, was adjourned till the morrow, k report was made on various petitions, amongst which was one front Captain Poorer, the ON nulier who saved the life of Bonaparte, at St. Cloud, on the linti of Annuaire. He claimed the full payment of the pension of lino francs granted hint on that occasion, by the Cuesollar tiovernment, under the title of a its. dotal treottopeie.e, and idol his half-pay of 60 francs. which together amounted to an annual I,:00 liana I hut as the law of the lath of May forbids the receipt of two pensions of • ditlerent nature, that which Captain Poorer recoiled moiler mite title of a re. Composite had been rescinded, and he only enjoyed hell pay, 44tet ably to hot rank. Ott 1110 .olleo, tlw reporter observed, that in thicease the law , in its applioation, was in opposition to the c'larter, The KM*, in that solento deed, had guaran tee I in all ereneisinen the pensions and ranks which t tee enjoyed. The half only of that . promise had been tolhtVcti towanla the ',of-thinner, if his hall-pay, which re t nettettoll active pay according so his rank, could not hr rrerivevl in addition to the peneiono of which he was previously in full enjoyttit its, the petitioner should be placed (weenie servioe, or it could not tee denied they Willetinjust towards Idtta. The Coimituttritum therefore eateumentled that the petition *Would be refereed um the r" ~,, Expeuditure, which was adopted by the Climbot. THE NATIONAL 11EMATER. FRANKTORT, APRIL I.—The public mind at this moment is exclusively occupied relative to the informa tion obtained from the assassin of NI. de Kotzebue, lie. fore his death, and the private motives which could ac tuate him to com mit the critic. All that is positively known is, that the assassin, according to his own state ment, quitted Jena early on the morning of the gilt March ; that from thence he procced.:d to Erlangen, Where he requested a passport for the bookis of the Maine. Ile set off from Erlangen on the I toh, and ar rived post on the evening of the ;7th at Lord), live leaguesfrom AL:nheini, on the other side of the Rhine. At Lorch he hired a peasant's cart, and arrived at Alan heim on the 13d, at ten o'clock in the morning. 7'he wretch displayed much composure, even after commit titr the (kid ; he has shown no symptoms of repentance whate‘er. His answers, which he has been permitted to make in writing, as far as was consistent with his enfeebled condition, state, M. de Kotiebue deserted death ; that he had no private revenge against him ; hot that for a long time he had resolved upn his death, uu accriunt of the crimes of which he had been guilty against Germany; that he was tranquil because he had succeeded ; that he had no accomplice, and that his crime "cook!'utdy be imputed to himself. This fanatic appeared to feel no other regret than fur the relatives of his victim. Yesterday i , his attendants were compelled to ti►. his hands, to prevent hint from testing off the bandages and opening his wounds. lits exterior is agreeable ; and all the information which has been col lected with respect to his conduct before the assassina tion is very favourable. The body of M. de Kotzebue has been opened ; all the organs were found in as sound a state as those of a Young man; it is therefore luesunted that he might have lit ed to an advanced :I A % lie was 57 years old, and pro fessed the Lutheran religion. CALCUTTA P.IPERS. CALCVITA, Nov. 10.—Our intelligence llont the interior of India speaks favourably of the getterkl Iran- quillity of the country, and the satisfaction of the people ' at living under a Government whose aim, as well as', whole interest, it fortunately is, to preserve to them the blessings of abundance, security, and peace. There are found here and there, however. refraitory brigands, who draw around themselves a set of desperate adven►urers, and seek, in resistance to established authorities, and in plunder of the peaceable and industrious part of the po pulation, that gain which neither their virtoe4 nor their talents would procure for them in a regultir and well ordered community. ' The Beitool Valley and the whole of the Distpoie I country have been principally the scene of these late ievolts, and we have given the details of the operations against the revolters there, ak they have occurred front time to time. The most stubborn and courageous of the enemies with vi horn bur troops have had to contend, were Arabs and Goandi, and among the slain the first have been always the most numerous,as being constantly found the hottest of the fight. Lieutenant Cruikshatik has particularly dittinguithed himself in these contests, and Lieut. Lane, of the 7th Cavalry, has been to closely engaged as to have bad two horses shot under hint within the putt two months, be sides being wounded himself. By their small detach ment, a march of 40 miles %vat made, and two battles fought within the space of 2 . 3 hours, and the troops bofe all with firmness and cheerfulness, though the roads over which they marched were unusually had, and they tasted no food till the close of their gallant labours. These roads in the territory of Nagpore are so bad, that it it taid only six camels surtit•ed out of 4ti that were employed fur a very limited period swat the bank of Nurbildda. Major Bowen, of the Madras arm 9, has also distin uished himself in several gallant actions with these Goands and Arabs, and particularly in an affair against Booardaee, where the rising of the stream in s o me mil labs hating out off his etpeeted reinforcements, he bravely dashed on with only WO infantry, and drove file times that number out of the town before him, 300 of whom were afterwards cut up by the cavalry. Major Wilson has also earned his portion of military reputation, by the taking of Pawnee, another strong post, seated on the banks of a river, about t'S milca to the S. E. of Nogpore. The details of this gallant storm are such as reflect the highest credit en the courage and skill of these engaged. The Mogul liaise, who are attached to Major Wilson's party, behaved also with great bravery, and evinced, what the conduct of Indian wolfs has always fll conspicu o usly sbewu, that good leaders and brave chieftain's are alums' ~l! that are wanting to make disciplined soldiers and courageous men. The last letters we have from Hossein:ill:id are of the date of the 10th of October, and they infirm us that Shaikh Mallon. a celebrated Vmdaree ( 'del, has made his appearance in the Betrool Valley with a sr..ns of fol lowers. and that Appah Sahib himself was about to make a movetivoit to the eastward. The Madras troops, adds our correspondent, are tak ing fort after foq to the neighbourhood of Nagoore ; and the Ex-Bajah's resources, he adds, are so eosnpletel) exhausted, that he may soon lie expected to eff:iit an escape front his own troops, and thmw himself on the mercy of the enemy whom he had se: fruitlessly braved. CALCUTTA, OCT. to. lipuestwaiteartos , We have been fa►mgred with a private letter from this quarierovitich Slain, that though the country is in a acne of quiet ♦t presen., the revolting disposition of the people is likely to furnish sufficient oeoupation Inc the troops in the neighbourhood. Ap pal► Sahib is said to be s ullecting his hams iu all duke. lions, and several parties of his toile:rents have secured lientselves in foils and strove holds at but a sl Gs tanee from Nacporr. A detachment of t:rmi l ,s had gone out against these, hut accuutus of tie success of Ihi it operations had nut reached. Major Lowe,, of the Nla. drag Establishment. had killed about 300 of die ()Humd. and Arabs who were in the Heim& Valley, and rail loather skirmishes were likely to take place before per manent tranquillity would he restored. Ponsran.--Ity receipt letters from this place, we team,. that 114 Nlajesty's ti7th regiment of Loot were on their march from Bombay to Scorer, which adds confirmation to what we before stated, regarding the state of the hate Peishwa's territory, and the necessity that existed fur additional force lacing sent into that quarter.
