According to what transpired the Government is con. 'bleed that the Army of Deception will leave France at the end of October and the beginniog of November. This happy news acquires a degree of certainty by several measures .taken st the Head quarters of the Allied troops of the centre and right wing. It is said that the English Government bas hired a sufficient number of vesseis to fetch from Cs. lais and Boulogne the English Army, about 22,000 strong.. ft is even affirmed that the Legion of the North, in garrison at Paris, which is reaumkahle foe I its fine appearance, and the escellent 9)44 which , animates it, is to resume possession of Valenciennes, and will, make part of the garrison of this place. — The snoment of the liberation of the French territory ,will be celebrated by public fetes and rejoicings. for what truly French heart has not sighed at seetug the couutry occupied by foreigners ? i FRENCH PAPERS. Rum, Sen. Ss.—The King heard Maas yester• day in 'the chapel of the palette. Ills Wiese's, sur rounded by Madame and the Princes of Ilia Royal Family, appeared at the balcony of the glass O kay, where his presence eacited the liveliest accla mations. The number of strangers who had arrived at Aix. la-Chapelle to she 171 h of September amounted to 10,117. It is said that a Grandee of Spain is at Ais-la•Chapette, where be maintains the strictest incognito. The Court of Assisi , . at Aisda.Chapelle has condemned to death two persons, named Ilenrs Bergmann and Chretienne Liffert, convicted of a horrible murder. The female convicted of parri cide is condemned to has• her hand cat off, and then to be led to the scaffold, having her head co vered with a black veil, end her feet naked. She • hod been married to a French soldier, who formed part of the espadition to Russia, and of whom no account has since been heard. She then intrigued with Bergmann , a soldier who bad survived thedisastere of 1812. The mother of Chretienne Liffert for a long time opposed ibis criminal union, of which two children were the Gaits. The unhappy mother paid dearly for her resistance to the scandalous commerce of her daughter with her paramour. They devised the project of making away with her. She was re. turning one day with her daughter from the market of Nitnegees. Arrived et the park of Cleves, the ►laughter asked her mother if she still persisted in op. posing her onion with Bergmann. To this she re plied its the affirmative, using at the same time re proaches. On a concerted signal Bergmann, who bad placed himself in.ambush, in a place pointed out by his mistress, appeared, and repeated the same question, and on her refusal, he flung the unhappy woman on the ground, and inflicted on her thirteen ounds with a knife, the daughter holdiarthe mother while she struggled to defend herself against the assassin. The Brussels Papers announce a tragic event which took place in that city, upon the night of the 24th inst. A widower, of a respectable French family, had resided in Brussels for several years with his son and daughter, upon whom be lavished all his fond. -seas. Within a few days he gave some symptoms of mental alienation, but he still did not seem to he wholly deranged in his understanding. On this night, Shout one o'clock, having armed himself wish two pistols, he proceeded to his daughter's apartment, to murder her. But snatching up a sstro'rd he at tacked, and inflicted sis wounds, of which two are thought to be mortal. The wretched victim of her father's madness had strength enough still left to rise and flee, but the father pursued her doors the stairs, until she found refuge in a cellar. The madman then returned to seek hilt son, but the youth hearing his sister's screams had so effectually secured the door of his chamber, that his father could not foiti it open. After many vain attempts he sought the female sere rant, whom he found, and murdered, by repeated blows from the pommel of the sword, when he closed the horrid scene by throwing himself from the win dow. • Ile was found dead upon the pavement. He had ou the day preceding engaged three places in the diligence for Paris, whither he intended to proceed with his children, and his baggage had already been sent to the Post-house.• It is not known whether any' distressing circumstance has contributed to Shia sud deu of his undentauding. -rtIE STAq'ESMAN K per •Uetst.

The feverish symptoms with which her fliercsvv was affected on Wednesday evening, gradually seb• sided, and soon after eleven o'clock she sunk into an apparently comfortable repose, and slept for several hours.

A Dutch Mail, which arrived this morning, has hrosight some curious information. The letters from Germany affirm, that her Majesty, NLAHIA LOUISA, has prevailed on her father. the Emperor of AUSTRIA, to support the proposals which are to be made at Aix-la-Chapelle, we suppose by the Emperor of RussfA, to remove NAPOLEON to a climate afore suited to his health, and where he may follow his usual habits. It is added, that Count LAS CASA! has drawn up a memorial.to this effect, and that be has written on the subject to the*Doke of RICHELIEU. It is possible, says the Ghent Journal, of the 27th ult. in making this statement, that this Minister, who is allowed to have elevated views, may see that it is politic to deprive RONAPA.RTE of the interest at 'ached to great Misfortune.. NAPOLEON in fetters, and resigned in the midst of sufferings, excites ad miration and pity. Happy, end without apparent restraints, be would not be less great, but landau. gerous, in the political sense of the werd. All the Journals, both National and Foreign, which ere written without passion and meanness, have express.. ed the same sentiments of justice and and generosity which nature has implanted in souls that are not de praved by hatred and self-interest. These are certainly more liberal ientiments then we could well expect to see promulgated In Papers directly under the controol of the Governments which have sanctioned the croel measure of deport. ing NAPOLEON to St. Helena; and we may perceive in the sympathy thus ondisguisedly expressed for the situation of the illustrious exile, greater in his patient endurance of accumulated calamity than his puffed-up `Red self-styled conquerors in the midst of ail their pomp ene successes, the opinions that are entertained on the ;Continent of the treatment to which our Governors have subjected this eminent victim of jeatoosy, pride, petulance, and 'misfortune. We hope the statement its the German letters will be verified. It is pen taps wonderful that the affections of a wife should not have already produced this effect. Until:Wl:44i such act of humanity shall be performed tewterds their fallen but noble foe, by. the Sovereigns upon whom he had mercy evOn to foolishness, we shall deem the vaunted magnanimity of the Emperors and Kings of the Holy Alliance, nothing but hollow cant and disgusting' hypocrisy. We are next told from Brussels. of the 27th. timeously and appropriately enough to give a decided contradiction to the French assertion that the removal of the Army of Occupation would be the only subject that will forfnally engage tbedeliberations of theassem blingPowers.that tbereare reasons for believing,t ha t at the Congress at Aiz-la Chapelle, there will be amide a Supplement to the Acts of the Congress of-Vielieuti iu which, to mid all MSC of War, r 6 ern Minolta" .. r--~~ F` • 1 1 ,1: kap, *.

Lions, but if ice may be allowed to argot from the pig conduct of the Members of this Supplementary Con. gress, from their accustomed violation of sole= pledges, from their habitual ooppreision of the sob. jects over whom Providence, in his anger, appointed theta to rule, from their uniform practice of trap. piing on the inherent rights of man, from their wanton spoliations, their tyrannical infraction of thole., of nature and of nations, and their despotic principle of treating mankind es a herd of. cattle, to be difinged of by those Lords of the Universe according to their .caprices, contrary to the privilege which they retell. ed from the Almighty, when he made them loss agents with power to choose their own mister' SP Cording to their interests ; for these, and many otket reasons, we may be permitted to augur notbieg 111. vonr4ble to the liberties of mankind. Resides the articles we. have thus giveo,the Flanders Papers supply the following : PRODS TILE FRENCH FRONTIER, Sot. 25.—They write from Lille that, notwithstanding the levy of 40,000 men, a great many young men voluntarily enlist, es well in the Royal Guard as in the Depart mental Legions, which iv considered as a proof of the good spirit of the inhabitants of the Northern Departments, as it cannot be ascribed to want of em ployment, because the manufsetories are fur the most part in a flourishing condition.--(llaoriern Courant, 3'ept. 29.) EXTRACT OP A LETTER FROX IRUX, SEPT. 12. The Government has received official and very detailed reports respecting the destruction of the army of General 0401i0, the loss of his artillery, and the dispersion of the few troops who escaped the sword of the Insurgents and were slot taken pi ' soners ; but nothing has )et hero made publ:c sbost these misfortunes, though they are no longer a secret to any beep Private letters (torn various parts of our colonies have brought very alarming Recounts in this re;pect, which are perhaps exaggerated act account of the silence of the Madrid Gaulle. This it is related that General St. Martin pursues his ce• reer of victory—that the Insurgents are masters of the mines of Potosi—that Lime, the capital of Pores is threatened by them—and that there is no foto able to 'resist them. Another thing which eagles great *term is, that the convoy from the Ilantousb, which has been expected at Cali* for this molls past, is not yet suited. This convoy brings this and a half millions of piastres. The delay Innis to make us very uneasy. While we are its this anxious suspense, the pre parations for the great expedition are carried on wits extraordinary activity. Troops of all arms are 05 the march to Antibiosis ; seamen ore drawn from all the ports, and the ships provided with every using necessary.
