N•.thiug, how ever, was perceived in these movements to indicate the plan of a combined revolt ; the events of yester day and to-day have frustrated their projects, by in:foldin g them. An Austrian column was within our walls since the and the necessity of procuring lodgings for it in the barracks had caused orders to lie issued fur the departure for Alai.; of a regiment of royal home cliasseurs winch was in garrison iu our town. Its advanced guard was at Ners, a village five leagues from Nisuses; it was resting, when its Commandmit Eugene vie Cabrieres, was apprised by the Sieur Perieux, Mayor of that Commune, that a numerous assemblage was about to at tack it. M. de Cabrieres, accompanied by the Mayor thought fit to advance, without mistrust, towards this assemblage, to represent that his re giment hail no hostile intention towards the country, and that according to superior orders, it was going in garrison to Two sen tiueis ediately tired; the Sieur l'erieux, - the Mayor, was killed, mid M. de Cabrieres wounded in the arm ; the latter retired with his company sad lost a mau, who was killed by a tire of musketry from the houses of the village. The regiment thought it right to suspend its march, and to give information of what bad passed to the authorities of the el-partmeut. Yesterday SOO Austrians s i o out to join this re giment, which they f d still stopped in its march by the rebels. The Austrian commandant summoned the latter to lay down their arms and disperse ; they had the presumption to propose a capitulation, which withd not possibly be recon ciled with the submission due to the Governmeut. The Commandant declared that be asould not ca pitulate with rebels. Upon this answer the latter liral : four Austrians were killed and nine wound ed. The trunks lust:ugly marched to the attack ; the minks were dispersed after a battle of two hours, in which they lost Go men killed, mud three pn rs one of %ilium was a federate of Nismes, :mil who, with his too VOW males, was shat by com mand of the Austrian General Stahrenkerg. A second Austrian column set out two hours azo, and will be followed by a considerable detachment of our national guard. The object of this expedi tion is to disarm that part of the Department which is infected with the spirit of rebellion. We are assused that the ex-general (Idly and an advocate have organized this insurrection, whose ramifications seem to extend to the Cevennes.— It is even mid that proclamations have been cir culated in those parts to instigate the inhabitants to revolt.

For this reason he is inflaming and exciting as notch as possible the men of the rural communes who tire capable of bearing arm*. These unfortunate persons are thus exposing them selves to the risk of falling victims to the despera tion of a general officer, who is apparently bent on selling his hie as dearly as passible to escape the effect of the royal ordinance of the 24111 of July. It is said to he in the male of It uottaitarte that he carries on this war its a rebel and partisan. Torre ire now 7,00 t) Austrian troops in the de pattutesit of the Gard, and it is announced that these troops will receive successive reinforcements. GLNOA, Our wishes are at length accomplished. Yester day her Majesty Queen Maria Theresa, our august Sovereign, who has been absent from her dominions for so many years, bus arrived within our walls. It is impossible to describe the joy of all the in habitants of this city, when, yesterday morning at sunrise, a vessel which was known by her signals to be•that which was conveying to us the august con sort of our Monarch, was drxt•rie;l at the distance of •20 or 35 milts. The King had gone, ut 3 o'clock in the morning, on board the Berwick to meet the Queen, and the moment of lauding, us well as the rest of the day, was marked by the strongest de mon strations of joy. At night spectacles and dances took place, and the city was illuminated.

The outrages which so long agitated the South of France, have at length assumed a more serious. aspect, and the enemies of the existing Govern ment have appeared in open hostility against the King's troops, assisted by the Austrian army. A sanguinary action was fought at tiers, a small vil lage five leagues from Nisines, between the insur gents and the Allies, in which the former, com manded by the Ex-General (;tt.t.v, were, after two hours hard fighting, defeated with the loss of sixty men killed and three prisoners. The prisoners were immediately shot, by order of the Austrian Crum!. The circumstances of the case were as follow:—An Austrian column had arrived at Nismes, on the 24th last, and the necessity of procur ing barracks for its accommodation, had caused a French regiment of !loyal chasseurs to leave the town for Alois. Ou i!, arrival at Ners, it was ap prised that a large body of instirgents was prepar ing to attack it, and its • mecum pu nier! by the Al:i3 oi of the Commune, proceeded hn inform the enemy that the regiment had no hostile intentions towards the country, mid were only pro ceeding to garrison .flans. This representation, however, bud no effert ; the insurgents tired on them, killed the Mayor, and wounded the Officer. The Austrians, on being infrirmed of this event, dispatched ma) men to dear the passage, and re jecting a pro f Hosed capitulation, were atticke4l by the insurgents, had several men killed and wound ed, and with difficulty succeeded iu repulsing the enemy. This eirennist slice is of immense impor tance, as atliwilitig a tolerably accurate meinis of estimating the public feeling in France, Mid cleat ly proves the spirit that dictated the proclamations given in our Paper of yesterday, and which, al though purporting to temess the extilicrauce of loyalty,appeared, as we then velitured to observe, to be rather dictated by an apprehension of hosti lity, founded on the well-known existence of re volutionary principles in the hiliabitants of the southern departments. We fear the example will be very generally followed—and that France will become a prey to the accumulated miseries of a domestic war.

The Legislative Body will be opened on the 20th_ The Court exult in the certainty of having filled the Chambers with its own partisans. Stich a boast is highly injudicious; for as the tranquillity of the country must depend on the confidence reposed in the itatiowil representation, nothing is so likely to obviate this ad►:nttage, as to intimate a doubt of the electors impartiality. The French Funds still look upwards, in conse quence of the increased hopes of peace having been ratifieJ. The assurance of the integrity of France is of paramount importance with a Frenchman, for by means of it, be hopes to obtain a future compen sation for his present sufferings, the idea of which lie con►equently postpones to it. Such are his wak ing dreams, and in such thoughts only does-he find consolation under his present indignities. The funds, therefore, rise on the expectation of peace, although no Frenchman can flatter himself with the idea of being soon freed from the Allied armies. The ne cessity of keeping up a large foreign force within the kingdom is universally felt, end, in such a case, it is diff►cult to say w Melt is the more unhappy, the King, whip requires a fineigit army to support his throne, at the expense of his people's happiness, or the nation, %illicit soppoits the aggravated bur den of a fOrVP oppressive, and a King so un able to afford protection to his subjects, Brussels and Frankfort Papers, of recent dates, arrived.
