PARIS, net. le. Von will ere this have heard the fatal termanantin of caption Pelley's guilty Attachment to the wife of Mr. •Walslt. The un fortunate young man (Ca:/taiii Pellew), aha was but in bis year, was shot through toe head at the first lire, and died in— stantly. Fur the sake of the afteted relatives of both patties, it would be infinitely desirable that all snot events should he burl. ed m entire oblivion; but as that is not positible..it becomes the duty of all who write or speak on the subject, to keep in view the moral effect of the exaniple which it holds out. Mr. W'ul is not lung since exchanged limn the Life Goan's. in which corps Captain Pellew held NA commission. Prior to Mr. quitting the regiment lie had resided with his wile a gOOll deal in me barracks in Ilyde—perk, where. being young tad thoughtless, sate unitappily received with too lunch ittatli. nuts those attentions which military men often thiwk •themylves at liberty to pay to every female. The consequence was such its might be expected to result from such infatuation. A dose at tschnient was formed between Capt. Pellew and the lady; and tit length, in a fatal moment, she agreed to sacrifice her charac ter by eloping with the object of her blind affction. About a nt z ntli since she went oil with him from her tither 's house where she had been reading for snme time, during the absence nC her husliand.

A Mr came over with Win, and by him the meeting was ar ranged with Mr. 11, on the part of Capt. Pellew. They w lc also attended on the ground by Mr. as the friend of Mr. F. and by Capt. ts as the friend of Mr. 11. I/r. T--, was also present. The distance was It full paces, and anti they were to fire together by signal. When that was given, tie pistol of Mr Walsh was immediately tiischargetl. Captain Pellew did nit fire, arid it is said he never intended to do su. Mr. Walsh's ball passed though the right temple into the brain of Capt.

My Dc. an Fittewn.—l cannot express to you how happy I feel that you did not listen to the flattering representations of . this now wretched country. I should never have turgiven myself. it' you, or any other friend. listening to the glowing accoonts that were sent ) ou. shortly after my Arrival, had be, n induced to quit England to settle here. Believe me, my dear friend, that Eng. land, with its heavy load of debt and tames, and the misrule of its Government, is far, very far superior, to this wretched country. Never was there so greet a metamorphosis (front affluence to beggary) in the history of any country. as the last ten months have wrought in America, whose boast used to be—. Beggars we have none, and bank: opts very few !' Now, alas! Irvin one extremity of the Union to the other. the country swarms with each description. Among the former. I regret to say. are many of my deluded countrymen. who came out under brighter pros peas. As to myself, I have quite exhausted my finances, and shall embrace the first opi ortuni yof returning to Old England. never more hermit it. Messrs. Clieethant and Foster also mean to 'company me. as there is nothing but ruin staring us in the face in every direction. 6 6 Many Engli.:ntien • who only a few months ago conceived themselves in the high road to fortune, unable to bear the cruel reverses they huye experienced, have sunk under their load of suffering. I only know the name of one of these unhappy indi viduals. and that I shall conceal, in tenderness to Iris respectable telmiv e s a t —. The crime of suicide ha. increased to ten alarming extent in this country, where it was formerly of rare occurrence; and to sum up thee measure of misery experienced in this once-depicted • land of milk and honey,' that worst of all seinesrges of the huntau race, the yellow-fever, has again been committing its dreadful ravages. • 6 Many hundred (natives of the l'nited Kingdom), some by the aid of the British Consu l. others by tke humane assistance of the British merchants. and a few by means of the small wreck of their property, have quitted this Lind of promise, and-returned to Great Britain—and I almost envy Omit for having got the start of me. I am likewise grieved for the fate of the thousands of miserable creatures shoot poverty must rivet to this country, where there are no charitable institutions for their relief. Any permanent change for the better is quite ualooked fur here, unless a war should break out in Europe, of which, I suppose, there is no ',myna ! 11. 11. FROM TUESDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE.
