PARIS PAPERS. rArtls, JANCARI: 31. _ . Yesterday morning, at eleven o'cloelt, the bu reau of the Chamber of Deputies, conducted by the Count Decor - , Minister of the Interior. had the honour of presenting to th. Kusg the project the law concerning the Duke de Richelieu, adopted by the Chamber in the Sitting of the 29th. Hie Excellency Marshal Macdonald, who had suffered some attacks of the gout of an alarming nature, is now in a more satisfactory state. The reports recently circulated respecting the oppointments of Lieutenant-Generals Maison and Count Andreossy, to the Embassies of St. Peters burt.;li and Constantinople, are now contradicted. Same symptoms of agitation manifested them selves yesterday in the upper classes of the College Louis k Grand. Several students had proceeded to solicit the read of those of their comrades. whom by • just severity the University had removed from the College. The measures adopted by the Directors succeeded in restoring order, and the classes here not been interrupted. The Russ i an army returning from France enter ed Poland on the 13th of January. It was to pass through Warsaw on the 1.1(1 of January. The Kim; of Sardinia is now causing extensive baracks to be erected in the citadel of Alesaandria.

HANOVER, JANUARY 20. In the last sitting of the General Assembly of the States of this Kingdom was agitated the question, whether the Nobility should contribute in future to the public charges, in concurrence with the Third Estate ? The Members of the First Class apprehend ing a result contrary to their interest, avoided the decision of this proposition, and with this view se veral of them left the flail, under different pretexts. 'The Deputies of the Third Estate did not oppose this species of desertion, so long as there remained • sufficient number present to legalise the proceed ings; hot when the fifty-second Member (oho wits M. de Itamilohr) prepared to follow the example of nis eolleagues, the Counsellor of the Coeisistory, M. S t ucker, one of the Representatives of the Third Estop, placed himself suddenly before the door of the 11 . 011, and ...of in it firm tone to M. de Ram dolir, that he requtsted him, in the name of all his colleagues, not to leave tile (fall before the scrutiny on the measure under discussion was terminated. M. de Itaindolm was compelle4l to acquiesce in this request. After some uninwortant remarks, the re. cult of the scrutiny was such as might have been expected—the equal division of the public charges among ail the inhabitants, without distinction of classes. An Ordinance relative to the Jews has been pub lished. Such as nil , wish to reside here must so licit permission to that effect from the Government. The same measure had been previously adopted in the neiteibooring provinces of Prussia.

The Chamber then closed the discus. sion, reserving the reply of the Reporter of the Special Commission. The proposition wns put to the vote. and provisionally adopted—the numbers being 79 for it, and 36 against it. MADRID, JANUARY 19. The King, by a decree of the 14th of this month, addressed to Don Francis Egnia, Minister of War, has approved the project of a loan of 60 millions of to•ati! , , presented by the Commission of trusts marine recruiting, established at Cadiz. This decree, which is preceded by a long preamble, in s•ltich his Majesty recounts the efforts hr has made for restoring tranquillity in America, and slims the necessity of making still more for obtaining the entire pacification of that beautiful part of the dominions of the Spanish mown chy, contains the following dispositions : There shall be opened a loan of 60 millions of teals.

LONDON, THURSDAY, Frenv,tßy 4, 1819. The character and result of the debate in the House of Commons, on Tuesday evening. will enable the country to !Orrin a tolerably correct ertiniste of the dangers to be apprehended from a longer continuance of the Restriction on Cash Pay n►euts by the Bank of England, and what chances there are that the present Ministers will apply themselves seriously to overt the evil. It is evident, from their owu skewing, that the Administrators of our Government are reduced to a deplorable state of imbecility, and their conduct betrays the vocillatious sod iticonsistencies that must necessa rily distinguish men who, having no fixed princi ples of their own, suffer themselves to become in struments in the hands of crafty speculators, and pursue the meteor gleam of chance, instead of establishing sonic rational system to direct their measures. Since the termination of the war there have been few points of our domestic policy on which the Ministers have not deviated widely from the original course they had proposed to follow. So determined hove they proved themselves to stick ' to the Treasury Bench, that they have on every great and important question, and as if lay some fatality, more particularly its those cases where they had most loudly vaunted their fruitless, they have condescended to follow the dicta of their op ponents, and have been driven even to propose the measures they laid previously scouted. Nothing could be happier than Mr. TIERNEY's allusion to this roosts lit rearlittesson the part of the Ministers to adopt the miezgestions and measures of the Oppo sition, and subsequently assume to themselves the whole tort it of the proposition. Thus it is that, when upbraided with having done nothieg to re lieve the country, they unblushingly refer to the reduction of taxes to the amount of 17 millions since the close of hostilities, which it can never be forgotten were repealed against the strenuous ef forts of Ministers, by the exertions of the Opposi tion, by the strong voice of tl►e country. But these pilots we shall pass over. and rely solely upon this question of the Bank Restriction, as a suffi cient illustration of their waist of principle and firmness. During three Seturions they refused all inquiry into the affairs of the Bank, said began the present Session with reiterating their determination of e tVll).4—trot the Batik (for, if we are to believe these Ministers, they act without any reference to the private of that great Company), but the country—from the dangers of such an investigation. A total revolution, however, almost immediately took place in their sentimeuta on ibis point, which, according to their own %hewing, arose in conse quence of an intimation of the pleasure of the Batik Directors. But this implies too great a degradation of the Ministers; we shall, therefore, with more kindness to them than they evinced for themselves, endeavour to rescue their character from so foul a reproach, and attribute the change altogether to a deference to what they conceived to be the sen timents of the mrijority in the new Parkament. lucked the feeling in the !louse of Commons iu favour of an inintediate itiquiry was 110 strong, that we are connarnt, tl.e or doe EXCHEQUER heen hardy • (lough to iter.ost in his original intention of proposing the contintianre of the Bank ReArietion, witliont 1 , 1;1)01;114,g the Wallet to o pretiOtiS inquiry in it Committre of low he would have been left in a minority.

Last esening the Secret Committee was appointed in the (louse of Commons by ballot I sod when the names of the Members (fur which we refer to oar Report of the proceedings in she Bowel are considered, and the proportion between those who are either Ministers, or avowedly the supporters of Mi nisters, and their avowed opponents is weighed, some idea may be formed of the justice of Mr. TIERS EY'S fears, that the whole proceeding on the part of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, not withstanding his air of sincerity, was meant as a mockery, or, as Mr. SHERIDAN happily expressed it, " knocking the brains out" of the Committee. There are fourteen Members on one side, and seven on the other. The result of an inquiry intrusted to • Committee so constituted, may easily he anticipated. The Report will Aanctimi all theopinions, crude and vague, respecting the cur rency of the country and the foreign exchanges, which have at any time escaped the lips of the CHA NCELLOR of the EXCHSW VER. or the sagacious superintendent of his Majesty's MIDI. These Gentlemen will feel themselves bound in honour to maintain their doctrines, if they chance to remem ber them, and as the Committee is constituted, other voters can scarcely hope to be heard. It soy person accuse us of entertatimig thoughts unjust,- tiably desponding on this subject, we shall refer him to the Reports of the Select Committee of the last Parliament on the finance of the (AK:idly, which was constituted by ballot, and near!). of the Same MattiMl% as the present, and if, softer perus ing these precious specimens of t he w i .doin :in d integrity of a Ministerial Committee, he shall hn t te for more independence and energy from that which is now formed, we can only admire his unwearied confide lice, and contrast it with our own incre dulity. Paris Papers of Sunday last pare arrived. Tl.e project of the law for grsiding a national prose to the Duke de Ittcurt.tEu has passed the Chamber of Deputies, and was pte,ented to the KING on Saturday.—An article from Madlid states, that the Spanish (ioversiment has opened 10011 of sixty millions of reels (about ']25,0001) at Cadiz, for which the taxes on con► and public amusements are rendered liable. The banditti of Spain are every day becoming more formidable. They have entered Old Castile, and a body of iOO men has established astir between Burgos and Val ladolid. _ _ The French Five per Cents. on Saturday were, 69 f. atz, c. Bank Stock, 1,4971 f. The Danish Government has concluded at Ham burgh a loan of six millions of marks bunco. The conditions are not known. We marvel bow the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER could have omit t.d the statement of this new pecuniary transac tion of a foreign Goverutnent, when alluding on Tuesday evening to the causes for continuing the Rank Restriction. The f;a:etie de France states. that the present GRAND SEtossoft was born in 1782, and mounted the throne in 1806. This Prince displays superior genius, a strong mind, and great firmness. Dur ing two years he has succeeded in reducing the Janc.aries lo • strict obedience. All the Paellas and rebel agents have been compelled to submit, and the most obstinate have lost their lives. He has abolished hereditary places, and limited the power of the GRAND VIZIR ; he superintends his Divan, and directs every thing himself. He main tains a great number of secret emissaries through out the extent of his empire, and adopt. his Ines sures before hisVizi a and 311taibters cats snake their reports to him. _ _ A letter lately passed through the Ilamburgh post-offire, bearing this address- 4 ' To H.
