C6tattPt• LONDON, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 4. Three o'Lluek, p. m. The French Papers of Thursday have just arrived. On the two preei.din;.; days, several individuals were arrested in Paris, suspected of tieing implicated in (Le :Ate conspiracy itga4tst the Government. Several Englishmen, it is said, have precipitately left the Fiench capita, sonic wags having circulated a report that part of the pict was instantly to seiro all Eng- iishmen in France as hostage*, and keep them to manual labour until they were redeemed! The Committee of the Court of Peers appointed to regu. lute the proceedings against the conspirators in custody, assembled ou Tuesday at the Lunenburgh, when a!1 the documents were veferred to them re- lating to the charges against the prisoners. Several of the latter underwent examination on Tuesday and Wednesday, and out cf the forty-fair arrested in the first instance, eight have been liberated. Areord!ng to the Austrian Observer, the accounts from Sicily are very distressing. They represent the islaiul as being tl.e prey of every species of outrage aild anarchy ; that the Provisional Government established at Palermo was but a chimera, and that all authority was in the bands of the populace. The strong every where oppressed the weak, and plunder Laid murder at discretion. Several towns in Sicily are said to concur with Palermo in demanding the independence of the Nand. The same Paper affirms, that the state of Naples is not much better; that persons of distinction are hastily removing their families and effects from the city. These accounts, however, should be reecived with doubt and suspi cion, as appearing in the Austrian Court Gazdte, which dares not insert a sentence in favour of the /evolution. Excesses have been committed in Sicily, but Naples is perfectly tranquil, and the people will soon feel the happy efli:cts of reform. The Bareuth Gazette states, that a dreadful carnage took place at Constantinople in July last, between the Janissaries and some other troops, in consequence Of the fortner having refused to march against Ali, the Pacha of Janina.

" It is on my knees that I write to my generous benefactress, beseeching her to pardon my boldness, but I cannot resist my feelings, besides, I ton convinced that if her Royal Highness knew the frightful stoic into which I um plunged, she would Lot be oftimded at my temerity. My spirits cannot support my misfortune ; I ant overwhelmed by it. and lam tno:e than per. waded I shall sink under it. I feel a dreadful weakness; a mor utl inquietude eon:mines me irternally, and I do not feel one mom.nt sit trantiiiiiiity. A crowd uf redactions on the past good ness of tier Royal Highness, and on my apparent ingratitude overwhelm me. Nlay hei Royal Highness deign to take pity on site; may she deign to restore me to her precious 'avow. which 1 have unhandy lost by the most deadly imprudence; may I receive that suit assurance before 1 die of grief; she alone can restore use to life. " I dare again to conjure, to supplicate,the clemency and COM iwsion of her Royal Highness, that she will grant me the ex treme favour of destroying those two fatal letters; to know that they are in the hands sit her Royal llighuess, and that they will constantly bear testimony against my past conduct, kills me.— The avesson which I have merited on Me part of her Royal Highness, instead of diminishing, would be increased by reathng them. I permit myself to assure her Royal Highness, that it is only the granting of these two favours which can preserve my life, and restore me to that repose whieh I have lost. My fault, it is true, is very great and irreparable, but love is blind—how m oll y faults has he nut caused the greatest men to commit. I dare flat ter my,ell this is a strong reason why her Royal Highness should coy descend to gritnt me the two favours which I take the liberty of as:.in•• of her. " 1 aLow myself to recommend to the favour and protection of your Royal Highness my sist. r Nlartiott, aol also her who is in Switzerland. Her Royal Highness gave me to understand that, perhaps, she might he allowed to supply my place. The hope alit a alleviated my distress. It would be an act of charity, for my sisters have only moderate fortunes, and in our small poor country they are nut to be acquired. I sin certain her Royal Highness would have no cause to repent her great goodt.ess and extreme kindness towards a yo.ing girl who has always gained the esteem and friendship of All to whom she has been personally known. " I cannot sofHeiently thank her Royal Highness and the Baron for their kindness in sending Ferdinand to accompany me; he has paid me all the attention, and taken all the care of me imaginub:e; I know not how to acknowledge so many benefits, and 1 will endeavour by my future conduct to merit them, and to regain the favourableopinion which her Royal Ilighnesi enter. tallied for me during the days of my wird fortune. 6 .

On going through the city the populace assembled in great numbers, and greeted her Majesty with the most enthusiassie acclamation. The Royal Exchange was emptied of its inmates in a few minutes, as soon as it was known that her Majesty was in the neighbourhood. She returned home to St. Jamo's Square through Holborn, Waterloo Place, &c. Her Majesty was dressed in a back satin robe, and wore an India gauze head dress with a wreath of roses.

Harvest is nearly finished in the most southerly and forward couaties, and is about codimencement, or in the midst of as course, in the most northern. The weather has been remarkably propitious, mail the 2111 inst. when one of those changes to bligittiag cold occurred, accom panied with rain, to wine!' our climate is so subject.- 1/intimately this state of the weather did not continue more that. two or three dais, and has been succeeded by a mild temperature, well calculated to forward the 1,. boors of harvest. All vegetation has been effected, tame or less, during the present season, by various periodical atmospheric strokes, which commenced tar earlier than was publicly noticed : but these being invariably suc ceeded in a short flute by favourable alttratioos, t he Coro generally recovered from the shock, and with some ex ceptions, particularly in Surrey, the mildew and rust have only affected the straw and the chaff, which, in deed, perhaps universally, bear slight marks of the dis. ease. The saute affection has attended the turnip plants, whichhave been cutoff and re sown, two or three times, the farmers attributing lies inisfeitune to a certain Hy, seen or unseen, for wnich a variety of traps have beet' set, during these lon years last past, and the Hy not yet caught. With respect to the state of the crops of corn and pulse, we snail know two mouths hence a great deal more about them, than we can possibly do now ; yet, wheat might perhaps have been safely pronounced a lar,te crop, but for the drawbacks of blight, and of the accident by which so considerable a breadth was laid.— The most prevailing opinion is of an average crop gene rally. As to pease, the accounts are as opposite as the quarters whence they issue. In some, the crops ate large in others they have totally failed. Beaus are called a gond crop. Potatoes about an average. On flops there cannot be a present decision front the variety and con trariety of reports. Seeds were got to well. The crop of fruit, although so great a part of it was cut off, has been iu u nense• The season has been excellent for work ing the follows. The aftermaths are geuerally good, and cattle, both fat and lean, find a ready market and a con siderably price. Fine long wool is still much in request. German papers to the 23d ult. have arrived They contain accounts from Sicily to the tat of July, which give a distresoing detail of the anarchy that ptevails in that island. Accounts from Smyrna of the 17th of July state, that on the lath, 2.5 u houses were destroyed by tire in the quarter of the Turks. ...
