The Paris Papers of Saturday arrived yesterday. Their contents are ;Important. They pi epare us for singular and extraordinary events. The MO/li tear contains at lust the Royal Ordinance, adding 59 new Members to the Chamber of Peers. The list of these personages is certainly a great political curiosity. It will excite astonishment, not only in France, but throughout Europe, which will still be increased when the catalogue of Exiles is pub. lished, who arc to ba recalled. It is strange to perceive the persons whom it has been found he cessary to select, to rally round the throne of the Bourbons. The Ultra-Royalists, by their o pp o ,i. tion to the measures of Ministers, have induced the latter to strengthen themselves by the access. sion of Bonapartists, and others, who were known to have been the King's friends. The experiment is hazardous— it must, in our opinion, be destree. five to the projects of the Ultra-Royalists, whose party is considerable in France, and we shall nut Ise surprised if a Revulution ultimately ensues, but without any effusion of bloo4l.—The peace of Eu rope at this moment is likely to be disturbed, it' the Powers of En rope should Live the fully again to interfere in time interior arrangements of Frauce. the 3 per cents on Friday were 631. tQ c.—Bank Stuck 1490 f. TliE French papers of Tuesday have arrived, but their contents arc uninteresting. The Chamber of Peers did not meet on Monday, and the sitting of the Deputies does not furnish a single topic for ob servation. T!►c King held a Court for ladies as well as gentlemen on Monday, and the attendance was very numerous. A great number of Peers were present, among whom were Count Daru, Count I)ejean, Count Greffulhe, and Count de Sassy, part of the last list of promotions. The Duke and Duchess of Angouleme were at the ladies' party in the evening. The Duke of Richelieu arrived at Montpellier on the 27th. The Persian Ambassador, out Lis way to London, reached Paris on Monday. TUE NATIONAL. REGISTER Vac German papers encourage a belief, that the Assembly of the States of Hanover will speedily a.s.stune a more important and cfli:ctive form. A new Parliamentary Constitution, report says, is to be submitted to the States for discussion : of which the principal characteristics are—that it is to be common to the whole kingdom, and that it is to di vide the Assembly into two Chambers. At their head will be placed an hereditary Alurshal of the kingdom ; but hts powers and functions arc not yut fully designated. A lamentable deficiency appears in the public revenues of Hanover ; owing, it is affirmed, to an augmentation of the expenditure since the return of the legitimate government, as compared with its amount ,before the conquest by Bonaparte. A strong and rational wish prevails, theref'ore, that a correct statement of receipts and expenses may be regularly published on the part of government ; and, indeed, it seems inseparable from the very idea of a just system of taxation, that the people who find the money should be satisfied how it goes. Their Majesties the Emperor and Empress of Austria arrived in safety at Venice on the 18th ult. The greater portion of the diplomatic body, inclu ding the Ambassador of England, France, Russia, and Prussia, attend the Imperial Court in its visit to Italy. Extract of a private Letter. " Vienna, Feb. ‘23.—The elevation of Baron de Stunner, one of the most respectable veterans of Austrian diplomacy, to the post of Secretary of State for Foreign AtLirs, has given very general satis faction." Extract of a private Letter addressed to a Merchant at Cacu, dated St. Louis (Stargal), Jan. 19. " A gnat number of ships have arrived here from Europe, and several others are expected, excltt sive of those tbrming the expedition. The colony is encumbered with merchandise, and nothing is selling. " The arrival of the expedition is anxiously look ed for, to see what course things will take. It is hoped, that the projects of Government will open fresh resources to trade. Some millions of pounds of cotton have been shipped for exportation. It is very line, and from its amelioration by the care of its cultivation, it perhaps cannot be excelled. It is worth 43 sods a pound when shredded; but this new branch of industry wants encouragement, and I do not perceive that any thing has been done to promote this. We find here cotton of a nankeen colour, which grows, like the other, without cilia vution, and which may be advantageously used in our manufactures. " Our Galant expedition has not been attended with all the success which we anticipated. It left this on the I 7th August, 1818, to the number of nine vessels, under convoy of three Royal brigs of war ; they were three months in proceeding up the river, about 300 leagues. The navigation is dan gerous, because it must be attempted during the hottest and worst part of the season. This flotilla, with the exception of the Argus Royal brig, and a merchant vessel, destined to pass the year at Galant, retuned about the middle of December, They effected nothing, except bringing away some grains. The most grievous part is, that all the Europeans, to the number of 30, were taken sick, and 15 of theta died. Fears are entertained for those who re main. An express, just received, announces the death of the Governor, M. Chatellux, Geographical Engineer, " The English expedition under Major Grey, which set oft last year from Gambia to explore the Niger, has been detained at Galam by the ruins which prevail during the months of August, Sep tember, and October, and also by other unforeseen MARCH 15. obstacles. However this may be, it is now united to our's, which is not established at the ancient fart St. Joseph, but a few leagues below the river Fa lcate. " Major Grey dispatched Adrian Partaricux, a mulatto, of St. Louis, attached to his suite, to bring him a supply of men and effects from Gambia; th e y will . join him by land—the journey is :21 days. A a English Officer has arrived with an escort of Blacks at Sego, where Major Grey is desirous of construct ing a galliot, with which he purposes to ascertain the course of the Niger." A Flanders mail has just arrived. The following it an extract : March 6.—M . Regnault de St. Jean &An gel>, has received permission to return to his natkc country. Yesterday, he left this city, to proceed to Paris. We learn from Paris, that M. Maret, Duke of Bassano, has also been authorised to return to P ar i s M. Doulcct de Ponticoulant, whom the King of France has recalled to the Chamber of Peers, from which he was excluded by the ordinance of the 24th of July, was for five years Prefect of the department of the Dyle, and will be ever remembered, to his honour, at Brussels. His administration was also just and emdtable; and if he did not do all the good that he desired, it was because it was not in his power." Near twenty waggons, loaded with the private property of the late Queen, have arrived at Buck ingham House, from I%indsor. The House of Lords will now sit for three days in each week, from ten till four, to hear Appeals and Writs of Error, in which the arrear is still very great, notwithstanding the appointment of the Vice- Chancellor. (ht Tuesday morning, between four and five o'clock, a fire broke out in the bed-room occupied by the Itev. Mr. Hazen, No. 4, Stanhope-place, Bath, in goose quence of the clothe, falling upon a rush-lantern, played too near the bedstead; the Hates spread so rapidly, that Mrs. 11azell escaped with difficulty ; and her husband, %vho is aged and paralytic, was so dreadfully burnt, that lie lingered a short time in tile greatest agonies, and ex vired. The fire was extinguished, after destroying the furniture in the room. The Lord Chancellor, we arc happy to say, is considerably better. Ills Lordship will probably re. sine his sittings on Tuesday next. His Lordship received the Scotch Peers, at his house in square, on Wednesday, tin. the purpose of qualifying them to vote at the ensuing Election of a l'eer in the room of the Lite Earl of Errol. In the rolls of Parliament, A. 1). 1445, is a petition from the Commons of two counties to Loglancl, stating that the number of afiwnirs hatl lately increased from i.V or eight to twenty-four, whaeby the peace of those counties had been F reatly interrupted by suits. The COIIIIIIIOIIS therefore petition, that it may lie onlained that there shall he no more than sir common ; Ato m i cs f o r Norfolk, the Sdllle 11111111)er for Suffolk, rtml two for the city of Norwich. Any other person acting as an attor ney to forfeit (tenth, shitino! . . . . The Rev. James Cum ll iii g was lately instituted to the rectory of North Iturtioo, with Harlin irk nod Scully. in Norfolk:, on the presentation of the Muster and lrltuoos of Trinity College Cdrobridge. 'Fite first anniversav of the Bath Bible Associa tion has been held under desirable auspices — . l he Vice-Patron, Lord Gwyder, presided. The circum stances attending the formation of the Association were such as to add a particular interest to its ills!. anniversary ; we allude to the unauthorized and in tolerant protest of the Archdeacon of bath, a tide the Bishop of Gloucester was presiding. Front the Report, which was read by the Rec. John Wchards, it appeared that upward of LUO'. been raised by the Association, in the course of the year. Major-General Sir William Cockburn, Bart. one of the Vice-Presidents, having. moved the adoption of the Report, was seconded by the Secretary of the Parent Institution. Colonel Sandys, the Assistant Secretary, and the Rev. Henry Da% ies, reported to the Meeting•, viola effect, what they had personally witnessed in Ilea then Lands ; and many impressive statements and appeals were made by the different speakers. The spirit of true Charity pervaded the whole of these Addresses, and the Assembly fu lly participated therein. The Rev. Daniel Wilson forcibly depicted the Christian Emotions which should arise from such Meetings, and the renewed and zealous exertions which they should call forth. The Benefactions and Subscriptions received on this day, with the Collection at the Doors, auiuunt ed to nut less than 2281.
