The following are extracts:— AIX-LA-CliaitELLE, OCTOBER 29. The Duke of Wellington arrived here yesterday from Cambray, and alighted at his hotel. On the Vitt) the Emperor sat for the first time to the painter of the Court of London : in less than two hours the sketch was finished. The celebrated prophet Muller, after haying made a short stay in this city, has been expelled from it, and conducted by an agent of the police as far as florgin, tour leagues from this place. Re took the road to Julien and Dusseldorff. lIRUSSILII, OCTOBER St. Lord Paimago') is arrived herr. The Empress of Russia is expected here at the beginning of nest week. A great many transports in ballast have arrived at Antwerp, to take on board the heavy baggage of the English army. The removal of the British army from France proceeds with surprising rapidity. On Tuesday the whole of the infantry, with the exception of the Guards and the 52il regiment, which are left in possession of the fortresses until the 15th instant, had arrived in England; and in the transfer of so large a number of individuals, amounting to 15,000, comprising men, women, and children, it is most satisfactory la know that only one casualty has happened. Their embarkation at Calais was effected in the short space of seventy-two hours. Yesterday the embarkation of the cavalry com menced. bat we fear not under equally propitious auspices as smiled on the infantry. The weather has changed exceedingly within the last two days, and our "shipping intelligence" apprises us that some of the transports from Calais had been unable to enter Dover, but were obliged to run into other ports for shelter. In the mean time the other con tingents of the Allied army are rapidly withdraw ing from the French territories, with the exception of the very few troops to whose custody the fortresses are still intrusted. The removal of the foreign troops from France, is. we trust, the concluding scene of the " strange eventful" drama which for more than twenty years has agitated and alarmed the wo►ld, and of which the effects will be discernible in the political and mural condition of Europe, during, perhaps, the re mainder of the present century. A mighty revolu tion has been achieved not only in France, but in all the surrounding nations; and it is remarkable that in the universal convulsion, the scene of its commencement has alone been altered for the bet ter. When the unfortunate Louts XVI. was com pelled to summon the States-Geueral of the king- dom, France was in her finances tottering on the verge of bankruptcy, and in her political state humbled to the lowest abyss of slavery ; an object of contempt to some, of still more degrading pity to others, among her rival neighbours. She has since that awful period plunged deep in blcod— has suffered the extreme of shame and horror—has been ut once the reproach and scourge of Eu rope—has urged a flight of conquest and of mi litary glory unparalleled in the history of na tions—has, in her turn, felt the insulting foot of a victorious enemy : but even in her humiliation she has acquired the germs of prosperity, and in her weaknese secured the principle of strength. Her defeat has been to her the harbinger of triumph. " Of all the countries in Europe," said the CtiaNcet.Lon of the EXCHEQUER, two years since, in the House of Commons, " I know of none whose finances are better organized, or in a more flourishing state than those of France."— Froa► this opinion there is no appeals For the sake of political liberty in France, let her Institutions speak. The power of the Executive is tempered by Legislative Assemblies, modelled as nearly as the internal circumstances of France could permit, after the Constitution of Great Britain, and by a grow. ing public opinion, which etperience and the fur ther diffusion of political knowledge must confirm. The establishment of a free press ou the must en lightened principles is promised ; the trial by jury is already enjoyed :—and with these advantages, if Frenchmen he true to thentseltres, we can discern no reason why their cnautry should not, after a short time, be one of the freest and happiest in the world. Contrast could not be marked more strongly, than by comparing the portrait of France as she i•, with that of France as she .had been pre vious to the Revolution. It would occupy too mucl► space were we to point out the effect* produced on the surrounding coun tries of Europe by the wars, negocistionr, and treaties, consequent upon this great moral and po litical convul-ion. Holland been the groitest ..~_ . stil l rercr, fur she has lost not only her rommerce, tier naval power, nod leer great political influence, tut it is uncertain whether her very existence as a nation iniAlit Hot be considered annihilated. The revolutions in Germany exhibit the, desolating progress of the general calamity. The wliale fame of that country is changed ; and while each unhappy portion Of it is oppresseil with etiur mous debts, taxes, and armies, the rulers of its destinies have ingeniously emitiived 'to destroy the feelings of pattiotioui and loyalty to their respective Sovereigns, which hid previously ;listisignished its inhabitant , . Italy has to mourn the extincti , ete of its proudest ornaments, in the annihilation ut Venice and Genoa. Spain groans under a more aggravated despotism. and witnesses the de grading spectacle of the 'dismemberment of her empire, without the power to prevetit it. Nur is England free frotti its most pernicious conse quences; and in the enormous accurnialstion of her debt, the immensity of her taxes, and the increase of her standing army. seems to be approaching that state Irons which France was relieved only by the Revolution. That lesson was treinendously awful—let us not lose its advantages, by atfecting to overrate our own strength. Our letter from Dover, dated Nov. 3 (Tues day), says—" The disembarkation of our army from' France goes on very rapidly : twenty-one vessels have arrived to-day full of troops, and some horses; the infantry, except the Guards and the s , td regi ment, are all arrived, and all in perfect safety ; the cavalry regiments continence embark nig to-morrow." Last morning Mr. Justice ABBOTT was sworn in Lord Chief Justice of the Court of King's Bench, by the LORD CHANCELLOR, in his private room, in 'the Court of Chancery, Lincoln's Inn. Mr. Justice BATLEY accompanied the Lord Chief Jus. tice. Mr. Justice DALLAS will perform the same ceremony this day, as Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas. The Duke of YORK transacted military business yesterday with the Panics REGENT. Yesterday the Hanoverian Minister and the Vice- CHANCELLOR hid audiences of the PRINCE REGENT, at Carlton-house. Yesterday a Court of Directors was held at the East India House, when Major-General the Don. Sir CIIARLES COLVILLE, K.C.B. was appointed Commander-iii-Chief of the Company's forces at Bombay, in the room of Lieuten.int-General Sir MILES NIGHTINGALL, K.C.B. The following Captains were sworn into the command of ►heir re spective ships, viz:—Captain R.T. DALRYMPLE, to the Vous/Hart, for Bombay and China; sad Captain A. NAIRNE, to the General Kyd, fur Madras and China. Yesterday the Logo Meroa held a Court of Common Council for the general dispatch of busi ness, which was numerously attended, but nothing of any public importance occurred. This being the Anaiversary of the Popish con *piracy, commonly culled the Gunpowder Plot, the Park and Tower guns will be tired on the oc casion. The Yeomen of the Guard and his Ma. jesty's servants will receive their customary gratuity of wine, it being a pitcher day. The Chapman, DRAKE, arrived at Gravesend from Batavia, when at sea carried away her maw topmast, by which JOMN JONES and WILLIAM RUBINbON, seamen, were utifortumitely drowned.

We have received the Bombay Gazeties of the 10th of June :—The accounts from Bengal men tion, that there has been a great fall in the price of cotton in the Agra and Mirzspore markets, of nearly two rupees a maund : this is - attributed to the difficulty of negociating bills, in conse quence of the temporary scarcity of cash. The tort of Malligaum has not yet surrendered, but is still besieged by the detachment under the com mand of Colonel MacuowAt.: in the last at tack, the loss was severe, amounting to three Officers killed and two wouoiled, with about e 9 rank and file.
