LONDON: MONDAY, JRNU.4RF 4, 1819. Yesterday we received the smaller Paris papers, which Fliew the state of the public mind ut Paris relative to the new Ministerial changes.—They say, that the reports in circulation had already prolliced a r:ie in the public Funds—and they anticipated a larger ri which the private letters of 'l'll.r:slay state had taken place on that day, tiro five pinr cciit.;. having risen to sixty-seven. If there be one event tvbich, more than another, may be considered as a true indication of the viblic feeling, it is the atato of the Funns upon any chaage in the pzrsOns administering the Government ofa country—an increase in the price being the result of .:11 eagerness to purchase, front a conviction of ti.e el.anges in contemplation being caleilitted to uphold Cie public cretlit ; and rice V. ;wit u decrease shewin g t:.e piddle opinion to be of a contrary description. The Paris papers of Ititsclay and Wednesday utliad us into the oteurremes that immediately preceded ti.c c lung:—nor t etanitinicate any intelligearc what ever re.s;:eclieg the causes that had rendered it neces- Sal r y 'TILL•' NATIONAL REGlsrrim Papers have arrived from Ritton E.) to the 7th inst. Further redaction of tk Army is said to be con templated by the American Government. Mr. Forbes, the Consul General for the United States in Prussia and Denmark, ha . returned home upon leave. Ac cording to the latest advices had reached Boston, front the Brazils, great fears were entertained of an insurrection in the northern districts of that kingdom ; in.cousequence, new levies had been ordered by the Go vernment. Letters had been received from Buenos Ayres, which speak of the detection of a fresh con spiracy to seize the person of the Director (Puyredon), and to produce a change in the Government. The Governor of St. Bartltulome►v's had detained, for the benefit of the owners, a Portuguese vessel sent in by one of the cruisers under the flag of Artigus. The Captain of u Scottish vessel, seized on the coast of Africa, by a British sloop of war for piracy, was ex ecuted at Fort Royal on the 7th of September. British imports into the Nits of the Republic of Hayti are stated to be sultjected to a duty of only five per cent. ; whilst double that omount is levied on imports from nil other countries. These Papers contu;n nothing new from the Havannah, Mexico, or the Spanish Main. Two Gentlemen arrived in town on Wednesday from ratis, who left that city on Sunday morning. They state that the greatest agitation prevailed in the public rind, and that several English families, who bad ar ranged to remain iu France during the winter season, had determined upon quitting, and was disposing of their property, at a great loss, for that purpose; many tht.t had no incumbrance had already taken their departure, and every thing wore the most gloomy appearance. We understand that the greatest confusion continues to exist amongst the Revolutionists at Buenas Ayres. The mono• levied on the merchants was so extensive, and carried into effixt with such a total disregard of their circumstances, that it was attended with the greatest distress. The British traders had been so cruelly oppressed, that they made application to the Naval Commander, Commodore Bowles, who had finally come to the molution of dispatching an Officer to England with the particulars, to request instructions. The military preparations continued with the greatest activity. The Dutch Government has imposed an additional duty on the tcnnagc of all English vessels at-living at their different ports; by the existing regulation a eer taiu duty is paid by every vessel on her first entry fin. the seeson, but how many voyages suever may be made, an additional import is levied; by the new law the same duty is to be paid every voyage, mud, therefore, to ships visiting the Dutch ports live or six times in the year, will prove a very heavy charge. Dutch vessels are, however, we believe, subject ahead) , to duties of a similar nature in our ports. The new arrangement was to continence and be in iiiree on the Ist of January. The American .Papers informs us of an important fact with respect to the Northern Bounilary line be tween Canada and the United States. The flirt built on house's Point by the Americans since the peace, has been determine:: by the Conunissimwrs to be on the British side of the line. This is indeed an impartant piece of intelligence ; us the a p.ws's,ion of Fort House places in our baodvh, key Xi communication between Canada and the United States on the wa ters of Lake Champlain ; and in case of war, set , ures to us an unin terrupted entrance iiito that Lake.

All IZ LATE 411.1.MkTY. The following' a 'the sketeb of a speech of Sir John Cox H;ppei‘lcy, Hart. on seeonding the Address of Cen dolence to.the Prince I.egent, at the Somerset County Meeting at Wells, a few days since. The extract of the letter read by the Baronet is understood to have been communicated to him by General Taylor, treasurer to the late Queen, and private Secretary Ma jesty. Sir J. llippesley expatiated at some length upon the exemplary virt u es of her paste Majesty. and particu larly in reference to her est:aided charities. He was more strongly impelled to this act of justice, because he scrupled not to utlmit, .that at one period of his life, when he had fewer nivantagee of authentic infernal. non, he had himself in some degree partaken cf un erroneous opinion, which had been but too prevalent, respecting that estimable part of her .Majesty *s charac ter, which ut the present l:our was universally recog nised, But ( as h e observed) growth and progress of' error were irreparable from the imperfection of our na ture, although its influence woe not reproachful to the understandkg or the heart. He woad beg permission to advert to a very recent and pointed testimony, derived from the best authority, that on this messier* could be adduced :—" The chanties of the Queen (Sir J. Hip pesley reading a letter) have been most extensive, al though wholly free from ostentation. Ido not believe that, during the whole muse of her residence in ►his country, the close of the year has produced a pecuniary balance in her Majesty's favour: and there is actually a debt which must be provided fir out of the sale of personals. Indeed, I ant convinced, that the loss of her Majesty, as a kind benefactress and a supporter of objects deserving her bounty, will unfortunately be best appreciated by the distress of numbers who looked op to her for every resource. There is in Bedfordshire one charity, to which alone her Majesty has paid annu ally five hundred pounds, for more than fifty years Such is is the grateful testimony drawn from the moot authentic source. To a single charitable institution, a sum exceeding twenty-five thousand pounds has been devoted by her Majesty's beneficence. The royal jewels, the appropriate decoration and appendage of the Queen's exalted station, constitute the only fund from which the debt of about 9,0001. incurred by her extended charities is to be livid:tied. The remainder is divided, I think, among the royal progeny. Mr. Banting was appointed by command of the Prince Regent to value and divide the private property, wl•ich it to be equally distributed between the Princess Au gusta, the Princess of I-lease Hombourgh. the Duchess ot• Gloucester, and the Princess Sophia. The valuation of the property at the Queen's Palace, Windsor Palace, and Froginore House, is nearly completed. On Men day, Lord Arden and General Taylor, the executors to the lute will, met at the Queen's Palace, to proceed with the prescribed arrangements ; the chamber of her lute Majesty, which had been sealed upon her demise, was opened. At two o'clock Mr. Szrgeant Vaughan, and Mr. Hart, the late Queen's Attorney and Solicitor Ge neral, attended the Executors at the Queen's Palace, to make the necessary legal arrangements for the Ex ecutors to act upon and prove the will. Tuesday the Executors attended at the King's Mews, Charing Cross, to view the carriages and horses of the late Queen, previous to their being sold. The Royal Arm:, except the supporters, are obliterated from the car riages with paint the colour ot• the pannels. Wednes nay morining five of the horses were shot on account their age, being between 30 and 40 years, to prevent their tailing to the work of dust carts. We :lin:J(1 have thought that scam: better mode of disposing of these old servants might •.avc suggested itself: a spare meadow might samewhere have been fourth where these nnima!s tni .: ;,ht have had their former labours re paid by 3 li Ile gratuitous enjoyment. The jewels of the late Queen were removed from the Haul; of England to !,c io.l),.cted by the Executors, and valued by Mr. Bridge.
