They contain Is account of various military operations., including the reduction of several strong places. Of these, the storming of a strong fort by Colonel Abatis, exclusively announced in Tilt BRITISH PRESS of Tuesday last, Hppears to hate been the most important. The circunistance of the treasure found in it, mentioned in our account, is not no ticed iii the Gazelle. Our statement, however, is in that particular correct. We have received the Paris Papers of Tuesday. There seems to have been no foundation for the rumours ciiculated iii the City, that the Five per Cents. bad been so low as 65, and even 64 1. In the mean time, the contractors for the loan stud the great monied interes►s of Paris, are anxiously exerting themselves to prevent a further depression, and have induced several of the principal houses to discontinue, fur some time, the transmission of spe cie to Russia, where the gieatest demands have been for gold and silver blllllOll. It is also said, in a pri vate letter front Paris, that on Suuday the contrac tors for the loam sent off an express to Aix-la-Cha pelle. to require an extension of the term stipulated in the Treaty fur completing the instalments ; and that, instead of nine mouths, they should be al. lowed seventeen months to pay up the whet:. of the loan : they offer, iit That case, to make each instal ment at the place where it falls due, instead of pay ing it to the agents of the respective Powers at Paris; thus producing a saving of commission, and other charges, and afforiliiig u security againsi any loss that might arise from the variations to the ex changes. Should this proposition be acceded to, of which little doubt WMA entertained, one can►e of the late instability of the French fonds would be im mediately removed. A private letter, dated Paris, 4.1 instant, say.—" The decline of the funds has continued, but evert• thing anominces that it will soon stop. What in a great measure occasioned the fall was, that the Bank had reduced its dia. counts from 91) to tit) days, and afterwards from 60 to 45 slay.; but s s e learn that it has ju►t repealed its decree, ai.d that it will continue to discount at (10 days, uutil it can do it at 90, as formerly." The character of Sir SAMUEL ItomiLLY was so generally understood, and so highly valued by every dabs of his countrymen, that not even the MIICOUIf of party could find one spot owvrhich it might discharge its venom. While living, he con. cremated. within himself not only the admiration and love of all silo had the good fortune to be 'diately within the circle of his acquaint. mice, cr acted with him in the relations of public life% but also the ri spvct and e.irr•in of his anta gonists nod rivals ; am! 'low tlsiit he hag sunk with. in the silent grave, sod can no longer taqe the charm of friendship, or feel the stimulus of 'tube lion, his memory will be cberishedi al►d his loss deplored by all who are capable of gioeious feel. lugs, or of appreciating his singular ►aerits. Witl► such► sentiments impressed upon our minds; we could not, without disgust, read the attempts that have been made in an Evening Paper to detract from Sir SADISM. RemitWs high estimation►, to dimitnisi► his claims to the gratitude and esteem of the public. and, by invidious comparisons, to throw a darker shade over the melancholy close of his existence. Cold must be the heart that at such a moment, and in such circumstances, could be induced to give expression to party seal, ■nd with out one apparent advantage in view, in far violate the ordinary principles of delicacy as to wound a character rendered sacred by peculiar inisfortuoes. To what purpose, unless for questioning the ver dict of the Jury, was an insidious comparison at tempted to be drawn between the calamity sustained by Sir S. itommt.X and that that betel the Prince of SATE-Coouao ? The dame object was manifest in pursuing a second comparison between it and the loss sustained by the celebrated EDMUND Bostic, in the untimely death of his son. Must 'similar results arise in the minds of various men from causes 'apparently similar Human reason cannot be measured like objects of sense, nor can the experience of one individual's endurance be con. sidered as evidence Gf what another can safely en counter. The eases, however, are very far from being similar, and the thought of comparing them could never have occurred to any but one who, under pretence of sorrow, iusidiuusly sought to assail a character lie could only envy. We should not have noticed this painful subject, had not the Piper to which we allude renewed its work lost evening, and thereby chewed that it committed its original sin, not from inattention or ignorance, but with a fettled purpose to do injury. The melancholy fate of the lamented Sir S. Rostiu.ir continues to enkross the public 'Men.. tention. The more his toss is considered, the greater it is felt—the more his Virtues and talent• are brought forward in re;iew, the more difficult does it appear to supply his place. At the Bar. his business is distributed among many persons; lint where shall we find a substitute for him in the Senate, as Representative of the City of Westmin• ster t In thil thfficolty, a has been proposed by several respectable Electors a this City to convene a General Meeting, fur the purpose of considering a fit person to put in nonsinstion, with which view they have transmitted the following Address to Sit FiLANcir BURDETT : TO SIR FRANCIS BURDETT, BART.

The death of your lamented Colleague which the national grief proclaimed to be a national calamity, is, in no point of view, more to be deplored, time as it will expose the Electors of iVestmiuster to the wastes of power and the arts of corruption.

To provide agithuit so insidious ■u endeavour, it seems that a simple remedy .ay at mace be applied. .. We are agreed on our principles ; it remains °sly to agree upon the person whom it say be expedieet to closes* as an honourable and efficient advocate of those prieciples. For this purpose, it has appeared to the undersigned la dispensable to consult the opinion of a General Media( of their Brother Electorr, as early as may be consistent with their feelings of regret fur the loss of their late illus trious Representative. With the same object, we beg kave respectfully to request that you, Sir, in your capacity of an Elector of Westmin ster, will attend, and take the Chair at the proposed Meet ing of your Fellow.Citiseoa, who, by the experieece of many years, are fully able to appreciate the firm impartiality with which you have presided over their most important delibera tions. Difficult, indeed, will it be to select an iodividuat qualified to become the coadjutor of Sir Francis Burdett, but the more arduous the task, the more need have we of your assistance, and the more'earnestly do we hope at you will comply with a Requisition, which we know to ac cord with the wishes of a great majority of your Constitu ents and Fellow-Electors.
