Lut night we,Jeceivcd the French Papers of Sunday, ar.l the Etoik of Monday, from which we have extracted the following : From L'Ebite, dated Monday, July 17.1 PARIS, JULY IC. Our letters from Bayonne say, " The accounts from Lisbon of the bth announce that everything was tranquil. The new Consti. Litton was not yet kaown, and the arrival of the English frigate, the Diamond, was impatiently expxtrd. This frigate, which has Sir Charles Stuart on board, galled from Bruit at the same time as a Portuguese corvette, which arrived at Lisbon on the 11. The Rere-cy has published the Amnesty, the cession of the Crown to the Emperor's daughter, the convocation of the Cortes, a nd the (Abet documents which have been received from Brazil." We find the following article In the Jottettiel rht Com Itteere •• : Me.

The news which we have received from Portugal has caused a very great sensation here. The violent Royalists conifart themselves by saying that the events in Portursl will not have the smallest in ftuence on Spain ; but if we may believe what we hear from Ma drid, it should seem that our flovernment is of a very different opi nion. Time alone ran resolve thin problem. The (kovernment having appointed Commodore Freyre d'An drade ennlmander in chief of the naval force, coahning his opera. tarns from Cape St. Vincent to Cape Ootte, and several vessels oh ' the Royal navy being now cruising between the two Capes to pro. test our coasting trade ' most of the Colombian privateers have left their ports to cruise beyond Cape (lane to Cap e wren. The last letters which we have received from Valencia inform us that several merchantmen have lately been raptured in those seas. It a very probable that the privateers wit ettend thew cruise to be yond Cape Crests. __—wetterusw.—. The answer of the Porte to the Note of M. de Mti.tzt- AC KA has at length been published. It adds nothing to what we previously umlerstood concerning its purport ; but it will contribute much to give clear views of the state of humiliation to which the l'orte had been reduced. It is in vain that every species of diplomatic finesse has been brought into anion, perhaps with the concurrence of the _~== TIDE BRITISH PRESS. Russian Ministers themselves, to soften down as much 'as possible the degree of complaisance which necessity hes compelled the Ottoman Power to display on this occasion. The struggle between ancient pride and modern feebleness, between the wish to preserve its own dignity and the desire of conciliating Russia by submission, exhibits a once for midable Power in so melancholy a point of view, that, detesting as we do the principles which have actuated its councils, we cannot help regretting such a document as one of the most deplorable mon umentsof human vicissitudes. It is not necessary to go far back into history to recollect a time, Then Russia weal as soon have thought of con quering England as of sending a soldier within sight of the Turkish frontier. They have deserved this chastise ment, however, and we hope that its effects will be salu tary—that they will see wherein lies the difference between the Russian and the Turk, and will take advantage of the physical capabilities of a country and a people which pre sent better materials of prosperity, perhaps, than any on the face of the earth. If such should be the result of the recent humiliations of Turkey, we have great reason to re joice; and we have so much the more reason to rejoice that the 'triumph which will thus be achieved will nut be the mere expulsion of a barbarous people from Europe, but the entire destruction of barbarism in one of the fairest portions of the globe. The accounts from Constantinople arc still of a doubtful character. The city presented a scene of devastation. all the palaces of the grandees having been pillaged. The Sultan was encamped under the protection of the ban ner of the Prophet, surrounded by his partisan". The firm conduct of the Sultan has induced many of his former opponents to make common cause with him • but it is idmitted, even by thaw most anxious for his success, that no certain opinion can as yet be formed concerning the ultimate result of the bold measures which he has taken. In the commencement of the struggle, none of the foreign, but the English Ambassador, could procure a courier to convey the intelligence of the insurrec tion to their respective Govertnnents. It is added that .5,000 Janissaries have fallen by the hands of the boa taqilgis. In the mean time, it appears by the accounts from Corfu that the insurrectionary spirit has extended itself to Albania, anti even to the 111 - Ithennetan inhabitants occupying the lofty chain of Piniles, &c.; but this revolt could hare no connexion with that of Constantinople. The Turks of Castoria, it appears, were so enraged at the in telligence, that they murdered the Archbishop and a great number of peaceable Christians, demolished and burnt the churches, attacked and destroyed San Marina, and, after being defeated by the Christians. they turned their rage against the town of Anaselitzas, which they burnt, as well as several Turkish villages in that country. Similar accounts are given from Ochritla anti Scodra. The accounts from Manchester, received in town at a late hour last night, state that all was tranquil in the even ing of the preceding day. No tumult was then anticipated. The people were occasionally observed in small parties about the streets, anxiously discussing those topics which may be supposed to occupy the attention of men without employ ment and without subsistence ; but the good sense of the people, guided by the sober and rational course which has been pursued by the provincial press, seems in general to have triumphed over the propensity to turbulence which want, if it hai no hopes of relief, would undoubtedly generate in their minds—a propensity which would long since have burst out in a instiller as destructive ultimately to the agents of the mischief as to those who would have been its first victims, if the success of a few ill-dispased but shallow-minded agents had kept pace, u they had hoped, with their in tentions. CITI, Trr.SDAY EVENINO. The occurrence of most interest in the present state of the Suck market, " the account," has passed off without any material event that will record it as one of any parti cular moment. Consols opened at 774, and so continued, with a slight variation of an eighth at the close of the mar ket, for the August account. There was a great scarcity of money steel:, and such continuations as took place were alone at a sixteenth, being about 2 per rent. From this circumstance, it is clear that any rise of consequence is not much thought ef ; although a most considerable and dis tinguished dealer did observe, that if they were not up to S 2 within a given period, he would walk across the Es ;llatige sons culotte. It is just possible that the gentle men concerned in these speculations may, by dint of arti fice, give the Funds a temporary lift; but that they can rise beyond the spur of the moment, in the present state of the country, is a most hopeless expectation. Of what use is the quantity of money in the market, it' the manufac turers arc starving? Time was, from the nature of the political state of England with reference to the Continental powers of Europe, that when one branch of trade became particularly depressed, another would rise tip to take off the labour so dispensed with. But it is no longer so, and it becomes a most serious question how the unemployed are to provide for themselves, or be provided for, until things come round. If any limit is to be named as to the extent of over-trading, then certainly, beyond that period, it may fairly be supposed that trade will revive; that ia, when the manufactures so forced into the market shall be con sumed. But until such is the cases, and trade shall re vive, and with that revival a retina of credit and of confidence such as did exist (though we fear it will take a long period to effect the latter), it is impossible to ex pect any permanent rise in the British Funds. The Foreign Stock Market has been in a very feverish state the whole day : Mexican 6 per Cent Bonds, which rose yesterday S per cent. (from 39 to 41), have been sold in the course of the day at 474, and at the close of the market were 49i. This rise is stated to have taken place in consequence of the accounts received from that country, of the very flourishing state of its exchequer, and of its resources and prosperity in every particu lar. It will be very gratifying to find that these reasons are founded in fact. Colombian Bonds have also risen 2 per cent. The meeting of the Colombian Share holders that was to have taken place this day, in conse quence of the non-payment of the dividend, has been put off sine the, and in all probability will not take place, at least at present. Mr. 11URTADO, Minister Plenipoten tiary in this country of the Colombian Government, has put forth a statement, explanatory of the cause of the de lay in the payment of the devitlend, which is understood to he as satisfactory as could he expected under such a disap pointment. lie states that the Colombian Government hail set aside certain funds for the payment of the dividends in question ; but that, inasmuch as the Government of Peru was indebted to the Colombian Government, and had au thorized the raising of a loan in England, it was proposed that the debt so due to Colombia by Peru should he de ducted from the Peruvian loan intended to be raised, and a pottion of it be appropriated for the payment of the di vide.•nds in question ; and fur which purpose a draft was given by the Peruvian Government on their agents in Lou den. The raising of the loan in question failed, and con s the draft was dishonoured. Of this event, and also of the failure of the agents of the Colombian Govern ment in this country, that Government could not be in formed in sufficient lime to remit the requisite funds fur the payment of the dividends. Mr. Bee repo con cludes by stating his hopes that he shall, by the first op portunity, receive despatches, acquainting him with the determination of the Government in consequence of those untoward circumstances ; and which, as he knows its tnea mires will be directed by the most perfect good faith, he trusts will be satisfactory. Upon this statement the Bond holders deferred their meeting ; and it is very likely, un less something unexpected should occur, that they will al low a reasonable time for the arrival of information, with out going further into the question. Greek Bonds are tl most obsctirtel by the transactions in those just mentioned, and cannot be quoted at more than 19, though they will, doubtless, very shortly occupy a paramount place in the market. Northern Foreign Stocks are at a trifling ad vance, and taut very abundant. Exchanges remain stationary. • A 4 1, cf,ts 4;14•4'' PARTIES. !and Berwick had a dinner party yesterday, at his house in Iltrinstone.,quaie.

CiONSTADT, delve 10, 1826.—The Gloucester, of 71, guns, arrived here two days ago, having on board a part of the suite of the Duke of Devonshire, with the domestics sad the luggage, after a tedious passage from England of thirty days. It appears that they had to struggle with contrary and baffling winds all the way from the Nore to the entrance of the Sound, and after that met with calms and light winds, when the Meteor steam-boat, which ac companied them, proved of the greatest service in towing them along, at the rate of two or three miles an hour. This was more especially the case in passing through the grounds opposite Copenhagen, where there is not more than twenty-five or twenty-six feet of water, and where it is, therefore, an exceedingly difficult matter for a ship of the line to sail across. Nothing could exceed the civility and kindness of the Danes, who seem Row to be wholly free from recollections even of their former enmity, and to en tertain the most friendly disposition towards England. The moment the Gloucester anchored, an officer was sent from Copenhagen with offers of assistance, and to supply whatever might be wanted, and Government vessels were soon afterwards sent from their dock-yard with water for the ship. Every one was struck with the beauty of the Island of Zealand, all the coast from Elsinore to the capital being fringed with fine trees and underwood, down to the water's edge, intersected by villas and pretty white-washed villages, reminding one of Southampton river on a large scale, and the fine verdure like the beautiful green of Paul Potter's pictures. The Duke of Devonshire, with Lord Morpeth, Mr. Cavendish, and other gentlemen of his suite, left the line of-battle ship off Agland, an island at some distance from the entrance of the Gulf of Finland, and came here in the steam-boat five days ago. The most marked and flattering honours and attentions were paid to hint by all the Rus sian Authorities; all the Admirals and General Officers hastening to wait on him on board the steam-boat, while each man of war fired a salute, as well as the forts on shore; so that the loud anti continued reports made the welkin ring again, even through all the streets and distant ' palaces of St. Petersburgh. Indeed every thing has been ' done to mark the amicable feeling that exists between the two nations, as well as to testify the friendship and regard which the Emperor has for the Duke, with whom he lived on the most intimate and familiar footing when in Eng land. Every one bete, who has had access to his Grace, speaks highly of his courtesy, and of the pleasing and af fable reception they met with. Yesterday Sir Herbert Taylor transacted military busi ness with the Duke of York at Mr. Greenwood's villa at Brompton. The Royal Duke continues improving towards recovety. On Monday afternoon his Royal Highness rode out in his dose carriage, passed through St. James's Park, and viewed the buildings for his future residence. We understand that it is the intention of his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, with the other branches of the Royal Family, and many other illustrious personages, to attend the Fete at Vauxhall-gardens, on Thursday next, for the benefit of the Spanish and Italian Refugees ; and it is supposed, from the numerous applications for tickets, the Gardens will be extremely well and fashionably attended. The Duchess of Kent, the Duchess of Gloucester, and the Princess Feodore, visited the Princess Augusta yester day. Her Royal Highness was better yesterday. The Princess Victoria paid a 'visit to her Royal Aunt on Monday. Last evening the Duchess of Kent and the Princess Feodore honoured the Italian Opera with their presence. Yesterday afternoon, at two o clock, a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office in Downing-street, which had been summoned to meet since last Thursday, by teder of Mr. Secretary Canning. The Cabinet was fully at tended, there being present the Lord Chancellcr, the Earls of Harrowhy, Liverpool, Westmorland, and Bathurst; the Duke of IVellingtutr, Mr. Secretary Peel, Mr Secretary Canning, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Viscount Mel ville, Mr. Wynn, Mr. Iluskiason, and Lord Bexley. The Council continued iu close deliberation upwards of three hours. Yesterday the Earl of Westmoreland had a numerous party at dinner, at his lions, in Grosvenor-square. Yesterday Lord Charles Somerset transacted business wi h Earl Bathurst at the Colonial Office. On Saturday, Sir HenryHaWord. after attending on the Duke of York and the Pllncess Augusta, left town for Oxford, in consequence of the death of his brother, Dr. Vaughan, the Master of Merton College. The Ring has been pleased to grant to Sir Thomas Lawrence his royal license and permission to accept and wear the insignia of the Royal Order of the Legion of Honour, which the King of France has conferred on him ; and his Majesty has also been pleased to grant to Sir IL Pymm, Knt. to accept and wear the insignia of the Portuguese Military Order of the Tower and Sword. Mr. Price, the American Manager, has become the Les see of Drury-lane Theatre, having taken the contract off the hands of Mr. Bish, in consideration of receiving from the latter hi; deposit of two thousand pounds. The Cam nui tee signified, through Mr. Calcraft, their assent to this arrangement, on Saturday evening. Mr. Price leaves Lon don in a few days fur the United States, and will be back by the middle of October, to superintend the opening of Drury-lane. A donaition of 12,000 francs has recently been made to the hospitals of Paris, through the medium of M. Lafitte, by a benevolent individual who remains anonymous. Considerable excitation existed in this city (Glasgow) yesterday, when the intelligence became generally known of the failure of the Stirling Bank. This circumstance will be laid hold upon by some croakers as another argument against the stability of the Scotch Banking System. It Is unfortunate,howevcr, for such disputants, that every penny, it is declared.will be paid by the Stirling Bank, and that not withstanding the unparalleled state of trade, and the los►es which a bank, circumstanced as it has been, must have endured, there are twenty shillings in the pound to ulti mately satisfy all claimants. But a feathrr in times like these weighs like lead,—what would otherwise not be thought of becomes now a matter of moment, and there are plenty of spirits abroad ready to declare that a puddle in a storm is a current-of the ocean.—Glii.vgiiie Free Press. TURKEY. (Official.) NOTE OF THE OTTOMAN PORTE, AMINES/ED TO M.MINZIACKY, CHARGE D'AFFAIRES OF Rtt. /lA, DATED THE 7TH OF THE MOON or I.EZIVAL, IN THE YEAR (Or THE HEGIRA) 1241 (may 113, 1826.) The Sublime Porte has taken into consideration the contents of the official Dote dated the 24th March, which the Charge d'Af faires, our very illustrious friend M. de Minsiacky, remitted to us at his last interview. The transla , inn of this note is to the effect, that his Majesty the Emperor of Russia, in consequence of his pure and benevolent intentions, demands and desires that the mode of nomination, and the duties of the Ileschli-Aga., as well as the number of the Ileschli soldiers in the provinces, may be restored to the same footing as that on which they were placed before the disturbances; that the Servian Deputies who are now at Constantinople in the custody of the Dos tanilgi-Pacha, may be set at liberty; and that Plenipoten tiaries may be apqrointed on both sides. to meet an the ?tontine, in order to bring about, and to terminate by arrangements equally sa tisfactory to both parties, the negotiations formerly commenced at Constantinople, between the Delegates of the Sublime Porte and the former Minister of the Court of Russia, M. de Strogonor, which had been suspended by circumstances. It is manifest and generally understood, that the Sublime Porte at all times, be determining to execute folly the stipulations and engagentents contracted with all friendly and neighbouring Posers, has constantly endcavn•.red to maintain relations of good genre with them. In tutu:armee of this principle, being equally animated by tae desire of settling, in a manner conformable to the clear ,tipulations of treaties, the matters in which the respective Dekga•es had previously begin to negotiaie, and anxious to re mote anti destroy by that means every subject of difference between the tw • Courts, the :sublime Porte will t.ot at any time allow itself to reuse its adhesion to such an arrangement upon the beset. and principles then adopted. Moreover, his Majesty the Emperor of Russia, being moved by a sentiment of uprightness and good faith, having at this movement testified, with his usual benevolence, a desire to consider of the best means for cementing a sincere amity between the two Empires, and having proposed to negotiate accord ing to the treaties, on the basis °fright and justice, without mixing any other questio is therewith. the Sublime Porte acknowledges in this step a proof of the distinguished equity and moderation which characterize that Monarch. Accordingly, being anxious on its part to testify to hie said Majesty its high defrrence and its particu lar respect, the Porte hastens promptly to comply with the demands above-mentioned, considering the sincere and cordial adhesion which it gives to them as a happy presage of the speedy re-establish ment of harmony between the two Courts. In the first place, the intention of the Sublime Porte was to pre serve, not only the established privileges which the two Principali ties of Moldavia and Irailseitia enjoy, but the public peace and tranquillity of the two Provinces, and that without any interested views. The Sublime Porte considered the existence of the Resell:II-Ages, and of their adherents, as nee:story for the maintenance of good order. Nevertheless, as there is nothing which can be preferred to the wish of a groat friend, an order sent separately to the Governor of Silistria, enjoins hint to withdraw ta this side the Danube Ilse Basch-beschli-Ages, with their adherents ; and another order, sent separately to the Woiwodes, enjoins them to appoint themselves die Baselt.beschli-Agas, who a.e to supersede the former • but that every thing T.:spec:Mg the number and employment of die private nese-bits, shall be conducted exactly as was done before the Insur rection. In this manner the stales quo is re-established in these two principalities. In like manner, the Servian nation, also participating in all the favours which the great mercy of his Highness accords to all other people subject to the Sublime Porte, there has been notutirg in his conduct towards the said nation but an accumulation of benevolence and protect inn. If then for some time its Deputies at Constantinople have been lodged as hostages in a place ad hue, this measure has been dictated only by a feeling of solicitude for ere welfare and tranquillity of their nation. However, as it is notorious that hitherto the said Servian nation has constantly abstained from uniting with the other malcontents, and as the duration of the stay of the, said Deputies has been prolonged ; in consequence of this, in order to settle with theta such demands us may not be contrary to the dignity of the throne, and iii consequence of the soli:tit:l64MS of the said Deputies who are at Constantinople, they have been permitted to leave their confinement and to reside in the 11011%.3 which they formerly occu pied at the Fowl. On the other hand, skce, according to recent Intelligence front the Paella of Belgrade, it is proposed to cause these Deputies to 60 superseded by new ones, this intention coin citing at the same time with that of his Righnent, arid out of regard to the good pleasure of his 3lajesty the Emperor of Russia, the ar ticle relative to the liberation of the said Deputies has been executed innitettiately. In the third place as to what regards the nominalon of the re spective Plenipotentiaries, as it has been expressly stated in the note above cited that the resumption of the discussions formerly be gan at Constantinople by M. de Stroganoff, is proposed with the benevolent intention of strengthening the good understanding be tween the two States, and the greatest desire of the Sublime Porte being also to perform the clear stimilations of existing treaties, tire adhesion of the Sublime Pottc to the deinands of the Court of Rus sia takes place in the hope of seeing the relations of good intelli gence strengthened between the two Courts in consequence of the conferences in which the principles formerly established shall be adopted, without raising any pretensions not contained in the trea tics, and without introducing any new clauses,or wishing to change, extend, or modify the existing stipulutions--aclhering, on the con trary, in every respect to the clear letter of the treaties, and con forming to their precise meaning. For this purpose, and in order to continue faithful to the prineMles formerly establisited,the servant of the Sublime l'orte, Seta Mettemcd Ila , ii-Cfr-ndi, the present Controllor of Anatolia, has been appointed Plenipotentiary, and the Molloli Sed Ibrahim-A fet.Effendi, invested with the rank of Dfolluh (of Scutaria and Provisional Coda of Sophia, has been nominated as second Plenipotentiary, in order to meet on the frontiers the Plenipo tentiaries of the Court of Russia, who shall be appointed and an nounced for duo purpose. The execution of all these points on the part of the Sublime Porte, and the proofs of deference and respect which it has just given, being worthy of the justice which characterizes his Imperial Majesty, and its language being also an increase of honour, his Highness hopes that in return his said Majesty will make it his business to execute and confirm the existing stipula tions, which will cement more and more the amity and good un derstanding between the two Courts. It is to express this hope. and to declare also, in writing, to cur friend the Charge trViires the execution of the above articles, notwithstanding the notifica tion which has already been made to him through the medium of his Drngoinan, 31. Panchini, that the present official note has been drawn up and transmitted. It is reported that Lord Cochrane has been assured by the British Government, that it would not concern itself with his proceedings, if lie did not enter an English port. It is affirmed that the Holy Alliance 'man to defer the promulgation of the Portuguese Constitution, till the Governments have time to make representations to the Emperor, Don Pedro. 'I he following are a few additional particulars concern ing the revolt of the Janissaries:— . . . . - ; T!e Ministers had assembled in a tent pitched on the Aimei- den, under the Presidency or the Grand Vizier, llussein Paaa, I and the 3lufti, and formed themselves into a tribunal to try the rebels. Ail the Jaaitisatics alto bad been taken with arms lu their -bands, but principally their Vstas old the other off:errs wl o bad previously sworn to adopt the reform, were, after a short exam - nation, executed. The less guilty were cuilducted to the prison s of the llostanje .he 17th, while this tribunal was sti.l sitting, a proclamation was published, which dissolved for ever the corps of Janissaries, devoted their name to execration, ai.d there, d the formation of rcolar and disciplined treops, under the name t f d'aahoi litithanlNtedije, fur the defence of the empire and of la , m s It. _ _ At the same time the citizens and peaceable inhabitants of the capital were invited to open their shops, which had been slut for thaw days, and to pursue their usual occupations. No one was allowed my mere to appear in the dress of a Janissary, or to lam. that name. " All their barracks were destroyed front top to bo:tmi ; their kettles, which had been so often the signal of revolt, broke. , ; the distinctive marks of the mai or regiments, taken away, trample I upon by the Mufti, and destroyed. In line, every thing has beet annihilated which formerly pertained to this militia, once so for. guidable. All the posts hitherto occupied by the Janissaries have been surrendered to the cannoniers and the Bostangis; and at the 24 gates of the city there have been established us many Kapidshi bashi, with u guard of 24 men of these troops. The following day the Grand Viz'er transferred the seat of Onvernment front Attneitlan to the First Court of the Seraglio, where the Ministry since scrotinded with armed turn, trar:satt Cusitters under tents, whilst, in the other parts of that Court, the troops are exercised in the European fashion. " In spite of the promptitude with which the tcruzgle has been decith4 in the interior of the city, people were nit entirely at ease about the issue which it was going to take, while they were ignorant of the part which the garrisons on the Bosplur us were to t ike, the Yamacs, known in the former it surrections cf the Ja nissaries. But the latter not only kept perfectly quiet, but even declared that they were disposed to co-operate in maintaining get d order, and assisting the Sultan with all their force to cverthrow the mutineers. The Wand Seignor thanked diem for their good intentions, and sent them a present of 31$J purses, to be disided amongst the garrisons of the castles. The tptestien is now, whether 1 the Pareses Phan be permitted to retain the prevent organization ; for they do not appear disposed to adopt the new one, and Hussein Perlis, whose penetration nothing that can endanger the present i state ofthings escapes, will not assuredly lose sight of these castles and their garrisons." SECRET MEMOIRS OF TUE ROYAL FAMILY' OF IRA NCE OCR lA6 TOE RECOLUTIOX, FROM THE JOURNAL, LETTERS, AND CONVERSATION., or TII E VIIINCESS 1..%M lIAL I. E. TIY A LADY OF RANK THE CONFIDENTIAL SERVICE OF T HAT 11/NEORTINAIt PRINCES& This work, though anonymously published, can rine n n longer be considered as an anotiymoun publication, t h e authoress having avowed herself by affidavit at the Also. sion-house, in consequence of an intimation contained Ia the E frole, that the journal was altogether spurious. I n , deed, had she not taken this step, there might justly b e ' entertained a presumption that the documents were b oe authentic, inasmuch as that, in times like the present, th ere could exist no substantial reason why an author's name should be withheld, from a work of such deep interest amt importance—important it' true—deeply interesting at all events. The author, or rather the editor, of the work before us, is Catharine Hyde, Marchioness Govion B rog li o S olar ' and we are inclined to believe what she asserts, when she says that in any other person's hands than her own the journal would have been incomplete, as it was written in a rambling manner, and was never intended for puisi ca . tion. But connected by the conversations between the Princess and the Marchioness, and the recital of the events to which the latter can bear personal testimony, she trust, it will be found the basis of a satisfactory record, which she pledges herself to be a true one. Her motives for ioublisin ing at the present moment seem also to be perfectly satis. factory, for in short the publication seems to be in some measure forced upon her by circumstances, at least by mil circumstances as are imperative with those who are anxious for the promulgation of truth. The Marchioness says that she does not linow that, at her time of life, and after a lapse of thirty years, she should have been rou se d to t h e ass rangement of the papers which she had combined to form the narrative, had she not met with the work of Madame Campan upon the same subject. The Marchioness alleges that this Lady has said much that is true respecting the Queen ; but that she had also omitted much and miarepte. sented a great deal, not purposely, but from ignorance and being wrongly informed. Madame Campan herself in formed the Marchioness, at Econen, in 1803, that, at a very important epoch, the peril of her life forced her from the seat of action. With the Princess Lamballe, who was so much about the Queen, she never had any particular connexion. The Princess esteemed her for her devotedness to the Queen ; but there was a natural reserve in the Prin.. CCSS . F character, and a mistrust, resulting from circum stances, of all those who saw much company, as Ma dame Campan did. Hence no intimacy was en. couraged. Her being thus utterly isolated from the illustrious individual nearest the Queen, has necessarily left much to be desired in her record. Without specifying the express errors in the book of Madame Campan, the Marchioness observes, generally, her want of knowledge of the Princess Lamballe—her omission of many of the most interesting circumstances of the Revolution—her silence upon important anecdotes of the King, the Queen, and several Members of the First Assembly—her mistakes con cerning the Princess Latnhalle's relations with the Duchess de Polignac, Count de Fersen, Mirabeau, the Cardinal de Bohan, and others—her great miscalculation of the time when the Queen's confidence in Barnave began, and that of the Empress Mother in Rohan ended—her misrepres sentation of particulars relating to Joseph the Second—and her blunders concerning the affair of the necklace, and re. garding the libel of Madame Lamotte, published in Eng land with the connivance of Calonne: all these, and other statements, the Marchioness purports to correct IV supply, in order that the future biographer of her august benetac tresses may, between the two, be in no want of materials to do justice to their honoured memories. Having thus done justice to her motives for publication, the next point to be ascertained is the manlier in which the journal came into her possession. In explanation of this matter, the Marchioness states that she was at an early age placed in the Irish convent, Rue de Bacq, Fauxbourg Si. Germain, at Paris, where she received lessons in music from the immortal Sacchini, the instructor of the Queen. Pleased with her progress, Sacchini, while teaching Marie Antoinette, spoke so highly of her talents in the presence of the Princess Lamballe, as to excite in her Majesty a desire to hear her sing, a gratification which the Princess immediately offered to obtain by going herself with Sacchini to the convent. The result was, that the Mar chioness became the confidential attendant of the Prim\ Ss Lamballe, in which character she continued until the death of that amiable and unfortunate lady. One evening, in reply to a question from the Marchioness, the Princess Lamballe said, 'lt would take me an age to tell you the many causes which have conspired against thismuch injured Queen. I fear none who are near her person will escape the threatened storm that hovers over our heads. The leading causes of the clamour against her have been, if you must know—Nature, her beauty, her power of pleas ing, her birth, her rank, her marriage, the King himself, her mother, her imperfect education, and above all, her unfortunate partialities for the Abbe Vermont!, for the Duchess the Polignac, for myself perhaps, anti last, but not least, the thorough unsuspecting goodness of her heart. But since you seem to be so much concerned for her ex alted persecuted Majesty, you shall have a journal I myself began on my first coining to France, and which I have continues! ever since I have been honoured with the con fidence of her Majesty, in graciously giving the that un looked-for situation at the head of her household, which honour and justice prevent me renouncing., snider any diffi culties, anti s high I never will quit but with my life." She wept as she spoke, and her last words were almost choked with sobs. &wing her so much affected, the Marchioness apologized for having unintentionally caused her tears, and asked permission to accompany her to th.., Tuillerics. " No," said she, " you have hitherto con ducted yourself with a profound prudence, which has in sured you my confidence. Do not let your curiosity change your system. You shall have the journal ; but be careful; read it only by yourself, anti do not show it to any one. On these conditions you shell have it." The Princess soon after left the Marchioness, first directing that site should walk in a particular part of the private alleys of the Tuilieries, between three and four o'clock in the afterncon. The Marchioness was punctual, and there received the journal from the It ends of the Princess herself. This, then, is the history of the journal, which it must be confessed is deeply interesting. We cannot help smiling, however, at the pains which the Princess, and by the way, the author also, takes to impress us with the belief that the French Revolution was chiefly brought about by the Queen's intimacy with the Duchess de Polignac. Heave n preserve us I—such a revolution originating in the inti macy of two amiable women! Here is cause and effect with a vengeance! If women, however, are not as deep politicians as the other sex, they can, at all events, be jest as faithful and as accurate recorders of facts which have conic beneath their observation ; and facts being the main object to he attained by the perusal of such a journal, we tray venture to assert, that the reader will not be disap pointed in his labour if he devotes a few hours to the his tory of the unfortunate Marie Antoinette during that evc.le!. ful period of her life, coming, as it does, from such autho rity as that of the l't itusess Lamballe. With this single aservation we recommend the work to the perusal of cur readers. Among the features of the late remarkable drought, it may be ►n.•ntioned, that Lincoln spring water, driven front the conduits, formed an article of export to Boston by the steam.packet boat. We are sorry that we cannot communicate any improve ment in Glasgow during the present week. Less business has been done than in any preCeding week of the currant y:ar ; and we have no prospect of any immediate extension of trade or advance of price. Among our manufacturers , a sort of tacit understanding has lately prevailed, the', during the continuance of the present depression, they wculd pay a fixed rate to their weavers; but one extensete concern has departed from the agreement, and, by the is ue of blank tickets, has contrived to pay the operative a t a lower rate than that paid by other houses. The pittance thus withheld from the poor weaver enables this inane - facturer to undersell his neighbours : and thus not only to reduce still farther the prices of goods already ruinously low, but to break down the wages of work to a rate which will not suffice for the bare existence of the operative. Snell miserable policy merits the reprobation of every friend to humanity and fair trade.—Scots Time's. 1 1
