'll ~~ • ~. t lodtdcrt.t• LONDON, MONDAY, FEBRUARY QS. ; fierce o'clock, p.m. • The French Papers of i rttesilay and Wednesday have arrived, The change in the M inistr y is merely I partial, as the friends of the Ex-Minister, the Duke Deutzes, still enjoy the Royal favour. ount Simeon bas been appointed Minister of the Interior, in the room of the Duke; Baron Mounier, Director-General of the Departmental Administra tion of Police; and Count Portalis, Under Secre tary of State to the Minister of Justice. The Ministers will still have a difficult task to perform, in conducting the public affairs, as we believe no thing will satisfy the Ultra-Royalists or the Ultra Liberals, except their admission to place, while the intermediate party would not wish to see either in power. The remains of the Duke de Berrl were removed on Tuesday from the Louvre to the Royal Chapel at St. Denis. Since the assassination of the Duke fifty-one sons have been arrested in Paris, in consequence of informations against them, but their alleged crime isnot mentioned. The English in Paris are des cribed as having, in numerous instances, demanded their passports to return to England. A letter received on Saturday from Vienna states t' at an official communication had been made by the Austrian Atubasselor to the Court of Madrid, that the British and Austrian Governments recom mended the Treaty to be ratified, for ceding the Floridas to the United States ; but it ',Ls expected to be made a condition that the latter would not suffer any privateers or ships of war to have protn tion in their ports, belonging to the Patriots in the Spanish Col pities in South America. "'Yesterday the Chapel Royal, St James's, was attended by his Royal Highness the Duke of York, Earl Bathurst, the Earl of Weatmoreland, Lori Melville, and several others of the Cabinet Coun cil. Immediately previous to the general thanks giving, the Rev. Mr. Knapp, the reader, announced " that several members or his ,Majesty's Privy Council desired to return thanks to Almighty God for their late preservatLa.” In subsequently read ing the thanksgiving, he introduced the words within the brackets:— " Almighty Gad. Father of all mercies. we. thine ra• worthy se' taut.. do k ite thee onset humble and hearts tinsels' Or all the &guidons sad lot I rig kiodiime to us and to all teen, (p.iriitel irly to those who desire new to offer up their praises and ih.iiiksiiriuo fur thy late mercies vouch safed unto theall" Such is the account of the court circular. We feel that the ministers have had a providential escape; we also feel the propriety of the expression of their gratitude to the supreme power for their preserva tion ; but, as the poet has asserted, that " N Ito builds a &web to Gotland isiM to fame. Will ne'er inscribe the soarbie with his h01m.," se do we consider that if the thanks of his Majes ty's Ministers had originated in real, religious feel ing, instead of the parade of it, their purpose might have been better fulfilled by their attendance at " The Chapel Royal, St. James's," and their joining in heartfelt thanksgivings, than by their attendance being announced by the reader.--ft partakes so much of the Pharisaical feeling of parade. The body of the unfortunate Richard Smitbers was brought to his late habitation in Westminster between nine and ten o'clock on Friday night. Ilia disconsolate wife, in a state of pregnancy, is confined to her chamber by indisposition. owing to the shocking catastrophe. Lord Sidmouth. in speaking of her to a person who was describing her affliction, said, " Tell her I cannot restore her hus band. but I will take care she shall never want." Stnithers's aged father and mother, both of whom are SO years old, live ut Fulham, and were supported by his industry. The deceased was shot in the shoulder, as well as stabbed, in the conflict on 'Wednesday night. The bullet was extracted on Friday by Mr. Fisher, the surgeon, who opened the body Previously to Wednesday last Lord Castlereagh received a letter, written in a very bad hand, and ill spelt, and the production evidently of sonic very illiterate person, apprising him of the recently dis covered plot, and the intention of the conspirators. This is supposed to be from the man who followed Lord Harrowby into the Park, and communicated to his Lordship all he knew on the subject. 11 e have nut heard whether this man joined in the plot or not. If he did, be must have felt a compunction of conscience, which induced him to disclose all the ciicumsuinces, though it is strange that a ortres, confided to more than fitly individuals, should nut have transpired long before. THE NAtIONAI. IMISTIItt. The Cabinet dinner intended to have been o ven by the Earl of Harrowby, last VVetinesday, would have been the first this year, in consequence of the demise of the late King, all of them having been suspended till after the funeral of his late Majesty; and it being customary for the Lord President of the Council to give a dinner about the annual time of pricking for the Sheriffs fur the year ensuing, bat which was postponed on account of the same cause at the time the King pricked for the Sheriffs, the dinner was appointed to take place lust Wed nesday, instead of the regular Sheriffs' day, which annual dinner is not strictly a Cabinet dinner, as the great Officers of State, the Clerks of the Council, &c. are invited to it; therefbre the assassins' infor mation could not have been better for their diabo lical and murderous scheme, as there is scarcely any occasion when there are more high official characters assembled in one private house at the saint time. The man who gave information of the assembly of the villains in Cato Street, and happily led to their apprehension, persevered so much, and was so prudent in giving his information, tl• it he would riot intrust it to a third person, and he actually called three times at the Earl of Harrowby's house, in Grosvenor Square, persevering against the re fusal of the porter to see the Noble Earl, except he would say who he was or what business he had with the Earl. He expressed himself with so much anger at the porter's refusal, that the porter thought he was a madman. Thistlewood continues in good health. and ap parently cheerful. He cats heartily, and converses freely with his keepers on indifferent subjects. He is quite reserved, however, on the subject of the crimes with which he is charged, except that he continually asserts that he shall prove an alibi by numerous witnesses. He asserts that the woman at whose bonse he was seized, knew nothing of him wkitever, and had never seen hint hot the day be fore, when he took the lodging . Dr. WATsozi.—Friday afternoon Mr. Brown, the Marshal, and other City officers, went to White cross-street prison, and havit.g communicates to Dr. Watant Ihe purport of their visit proceeded to staxit papers in his possession, In the interim, other t thetas went to his late lodgings in I hree King's court, Fleet sir et; but, after a minute search at both places, nothing was found tending to criminate the Doctor in the late infamous con- sinracy. Last night about half-past seven o'clock, an alarming fire broke out at a private house, at the corner of Bast-lane, Botherhithe. The flames were first discovered bursting out of the garret windows, and seemed for some time checked. At eight o'clock they increased, and the fire beginning to spread, occasioned great consternation in the neighbour hood, and communicated to the shipping that lay close to the river side. Engines WWI arrived front all quarters, but in spite of their efforts it is fettled much damage was done. A great number of pick pockets, and other thieves, particularly from the Borsuigh, soon repaired to the scene of desolation, hustling and robbing evert decent peeson that un fortunately came in their way.
