MEMOIRS OF MADAME MANSON, [From a Paris lyiper.] EXPLANATORY OF HER CON DUCT IN THE TRIAL FOR THE MURDER OF H. FUALDES. Writs iv Herm?, sad **treated Se Ur Mather, Madame Aaistara; with a Portrait, Eignottot, sad Potkolotto, The strongest interest has long been attached to this mysterious personage, for whom chance has ►eserved such an extraordinary part. in • trial that has become celebrated by the rank of the victim, the friendship which subsisted between him and his assassins, the terror which they struck into some of the witnesses whom justice called to its aid, sod the veil which still seems to cover a part of their crime. Madame Manson, at first summoned as a witness, but transformed by her alarm, her energetic ex pressions, her numerous concealments by silence into an accuser—alternately questioned as a spec tator, or threatened as ass accomplice of the crime— had hitherto confined herself to a system of bide. cisiots which tortured without gratif)ing curiosity. The law had placed her at the mercy of public opiniati, winch, &appointed a thousand times, re proached her for her silence and revenged itself, for what was called her obstinacy, by assigning to her motives, sometimes the most disgraceful, at others the most generous. . _ . Daring the whole tune of the f►rst trial of the assassins of M. Fumbles, fiLdame Mattson gave full scope for conjecture. tier appearance was con. sidered by some as one of those eveiits which Pro vidence keeps in reserve to overwitTlm ■nd confound the guilty, when on the point of escaping from human justice. Others—they formed sucked the mino►ity—seemed to think that this most extraor dietary wituess, indulging the vain desire of a ro mantic celebrity, had aspired Duly to produce tf. feet. None had formed a cor►ect judgment of the author of these Memoirs. Fearful myself of ctasiveying but an imperfect idea cif her character, I ►hall borrow her own words, extracted from one of her letters to M. • s a, tie whom Nletlarne Manson committed her manuscript. " I have said that nobody knew me, and it is true. 1 scarcely know myself, and I study myself every day. I astonish myself, and, as my mother toy.. 1401 " I do isothiaig like other people; it has happened that I have beets accused utiaustly, ■nd from a mis taken pride, or, if you please, Irons toy eccentricity, 1 diadem to justify myself. 1 um callable of the greatest elbow to oblige; nothing gives ine merle pleasure as a., exeite fee hugs of gratitude.

Th e se f e w lines, w h ich delineate in all the candour of her soul a wotnau *hese extraordinary situation commands at once respect and interest, will afford an idea of the manner in which these Memoirs are written. The heart tualliferts itself throughout ; as►cl intelligence and elegance often act as its inter torten'. Every one of the circumstances which have given else to her numerous contradiction., is explained with a sitnpltcitr. u clearness which eon ►cious ocence can alone inspire. This time Madame MOllOOll has torn the veil which concealed from us part of the truth ; she has thought it her Duly to confide to the baton) of the best of mothers the secret which she only looted at to justice. Before we analyst theft Memoirs, we shall pee. sent the reader with an extract from • petition ad dressed by the author to his Excellency the K e'er of the Seals. Madame Mloloollllo* recourse to the supreme fountain of justice to obtain a cessation oaf the persecutions to winch she has been subjected. " I know not," rays she, " what language is made use of to the great ; I am lICCIIIIIOIIIed to speak the language of the heart. The lllitiaster of a Bourbon cannot mistake it; I need not employ ally other with your Escelleisey. There is nut all example in the annals of justice, of a Willie** so pervecuted as I am. " I am a victim sacrificed to 1 know not what : any enemies are unknown to sue. No, Sir, lum not the woman who was shut tip at llancal'e ; and yet by a concatenation of circumstances almost in credible, I may have admitted that 1 was that woman—inch is the stature of the fears which I hare frit ; such is the impress which they have produced upon my soul, alai l basic chosen rather to ;aloe fur an isifamous prostitute, than to see them realized. . • " Let not your Excellency reproach toe with my hid in the sitting of the , 2-2,t1 of August. if the proceedings bad mit been annulled. I would myself hare tittered my life. I would have fallen. My dime was involuntary—no matter:—the con sequences of it would have been too fatal, and I alii a striking example of the dangers of convic tion. _ . " In the state into which I have fallen, death would be a bles►iiig to me, fur with death the terror:. of life Wye an end. lint to lose my liberty, to be kept for ever ►eparated from what is dearest to me, to be deprived of the embraces of my child. Ali, Sir ! If you think me guilty, punish me not thus; you could not invent a cruel torture." - . •• I will gu," says the iiiirortuisate woman, part of *hose existeuce is so painfully described in these Memoirs, •• I will go, if necessary, to a distant couut►y, to hide my pans but not recaorse." Who can read these words u 11111 l leed ? %Via eau help discovering iu this IsuKseiage the exprewriou of a soul kat-sowed by grief, but *hien g.uslt has never up. I/II skirt,. It is natural to suppose that maternal love, %loch occupies so important a place in the life of Madame Yawut►—th.►t the passion fur her sou, au often and so - publicly expressed, could net hut be manife.ted in all its force in a Memoiraddressed by Clarissa to her beloved mother. Accordingly, while Madame Manson testifies her gratitude to her purist, she also recomturtids her buy to her care : •• What obligations sin I under to you. my dear Mamma ! To you I owe my own life and that of my sou. But for you mid your tender care, my Edward would not exist; lie would have perished without seeing the R01L.... And now that he is hurt and in pain —now that from a childish impru dence he has narrowly escaped losing his arms, what would become of me slid I not know that he was under your care! Ali ! if Nature lies produced monsters. she has also created affectionate souls, winch make tas forget them. " Adieu, my dear Mamma! make the little angel pray fur me. I still remember with emotion a prayer which 1 heard him say in the Church of Notre Dame. when lie thought I was not to hins : • 0 God. give me grace that I may he very good ; make Mamma Enialrais well, amf take away the g►iefs of Mamma Clarissa.' " How is at possible to help adoring so interesting a child—especially fur his mother ! Vet my poor Edward will be unhappy : that fatality which per secutes me attaches to all I love, to all by whom I am beloved. I am more terrible thou Pandora : 1 diffuse all kinds of evils, but no hope is left me. " Adieu. my child ! my only blessing! my only consolation ! Adieu, my good another ! lam about to leave you. May this Memoir serve to divert your thoughts —may you there hod some alleviation for your distress! My Edward will some day read it ; but be will never have auy idea of the tortures which it has occasioned to his unfortunate mother; the heart of a man cannot feel this like ours. •` Grief wholly absorbs me : the future promises no happiness, rsprcially if I may judge front the past. I have applied for a Priest. I feel my fortitude forsake me; there are moments when I lose sight of my religion—when I forget every thing except my mother and my boy." The portraits of Edward Manton and of hie mother, drawn from life at Rode:, and a vignette, reprisetiting the Prisoner in her cell, cannot but Iwighteo the interest and the universal curiosity excited by these Memoirs ; the first edition, of which ■ great number of copies were taken off, was, we are informed, exhausted in one single morning. • The child has hart his arm by a fall daring the impri sonment of his mother.

Tier army Nay plundering near Slahmood K,,te. The Sun of last evening made n tremendous c:iarge agaitmt the daily l'ress of this country, urged indeed indir..ctly, and expressed in very guarded language. It insinuates, under the pre tence of repeating a report, said to prevail in Paris, that fire British Newspapers tire actually in the pay of the French parties, whether Mini sterial, Royalist, or Popuhir. Affecting thus to discredit the report, it adds— " It, however, not only becomes our 'Moister', but is absolutely their duty to endeavour, if possible, to ascertain t►e fact ; for what coutidence. as we before observed, ought they, or can they, place is any Journal that any affect to be attached to the interests of our Government, if it is employed in support of such measures of a Foreign Govern• meat as may be injurious to our own! Thst the higher o►der of our Rulers, would diarists to pica the lead cagoule *mice to any Jourwal to which the suspicion of each a dis graceful coanectioa with a Forrigo Government might at tach, we bendy believe ; but they 'should be sure that no counteuenre to imparted to asp suck .1 1 by any of their official soborainatir. Ii would be worse than fully to patronize any Public Amnia: that may have an intermit iu support of a Government which leas always been adverse to this ministry, of which it, indeed, has long been Collbi. dercd as the asalreca Emmy." By the terms of this admonitions to Ministers, more evidently is meant than meets the eye. By the constant allusion to ministerial patronage, and to the Impropriety of contiutring to shew favour to a Journal guilty or so flagrant an act of treachery, we must conclude that the charge, or at least the waist pert of it, refers to the 11cicisterial Journals. We wish lice Son had been a little mute explicit, for we really feel something more than ordinary curiosity to discover who these trailms sue that would lend themselves to the 'twin ses of foreign and rival Atates, and would for a paltry bribe sacri fice the interests of their own country to promote the objects of foreign factions. This is the second time that l'he Son his uttered this imputation, and if it dons not shortly satisfy the public cotio.ity, we must e'en seek for some information respecting the matter from other sources. We have received Paris Papers of S.iturclay last. l'he discussion in the Chamber of Depu. ties on the law fur recruiting the army rill con tinues. Several amendments respecting the du ration, amount, locality, and govet ttttt ent of the army and of the departmental legions, have been proposed : for the practice of the Chamber of Depu tier, unlike that of the British House of Com mons, permits various amendments to be enter tained and considered in one and the same discus sion. Of these the most important are—one for voting the army annually, and another for substi tuting the words 4 , in virtue of a special Ordinance of the King," in lieu of 4 , by virtue of a special law," thereby depriving the departmental legion, or militia of the country of their Veality, en abling the Government to uturch them to oil point of the kingdom it might think proper. Ex pediency, or rather on absolute necessity, appears to have originated this law, as the only mcunA of maintaining the effective strength of the tinny of France. Private letters from Paris mention, that tie Duke DE FITZJAMES has been exiled from Court fur hav ing printed his opinion on the law projet respecting the Journals, which it appears he had lost the oppor tunity of expressing in the Chamber of Peers. The same letters add, that his disgrace has not been attended wttli the loss of either of his situa tions of first Gentleman to Monsieur the Count D'Aurota, and of Colonel of the cavalry of the • National Guard of Paris. Ministers are, indeed, said to have made application to Mousieur, es Colonel-General of the National Guards of France, to deprive the Duke of his rank in that corps ; but his Royal highness refused, adding, that he would sooner resign himself. It is even added that the Ministers have gone the length of holding a Coun cil to consider whether the resignation of the Count D'ARTOIS ought to he accqoteil. The Duke's offence was, in the eye of the Mi nisters, of the deepest chtracter, for he has criticised their political system with extretne severity, amid re. feted their existence to CONAPARTE and the Revo lution.
