T H E• S LI N. SOLENI QUIS DICERS ALIDEAT LONDON, AUGUST 9, iBoz. WE this morning leceived . the P;iris journals . Of the sth instant. The Afa,iiteur of that day 9n tains, what.we some time ago were enab:ed.tO'an notince, throngh,the medium, of our Private - Corres_ . porident at Paris, as, likely soon to be given, a NEW CONSTITUTION .FOR FRANCE, Such an event did not seem to have entered generally into the expeaationi of the French People, or at least.- it - . - is a circumstance which they have not presumed to anticipate, if we are to Judge frOin_ the total silence of their press. Since the accession of BONAP'ARTE, his i Governi . nent being military, it has' been gene rally imagined that he had - power as absolute as could well. exist ; but the New Constitution now proMulgated, makes that power,. which . was only' mi/itariy, so, now absolute by the Civil Constitution. , To analyse this important Pa per, would be to repeat almost every sentence it contains, we therefore refer our Readers to those Columns ,of our Journal, in which it is,,given at length. The Chief Consul, it will be seen, has power to do every thing. He can name a large additional number of Senators, at will ; he has the appointment I of the two secondary Consuls, or- at least he ha's so, in faa, fOr it will be seen that he r pre,sents them to the Senate, who can only-chuse upon his nomination, and if they twice refuse,' the third time they must chose the person whom he pre sents. The Senate can suspend the Trial by Jury, and declare any place or distriCt out of the • protection of the Consititution ; and it will be seen, by the Constitution of the Senate, that this • power in fait vests in the Chief Consul himself. The most important privilege, however, while it gives him all, which this new Constitution pro vides for the Chief Consul, is Ike right of nomivac iug his Successor, and that 4y Will, if . he pleases ; so that the French People may probably remain in perfea.ignorance of the Successor to.the Chief Power in France till after the death of their present killer. Many parts of thiS new Constitution are evident!) taken from the model of our own 'excellent one, and these wilt certainly meet with the'arprobatio of Britons. Of this number is the prerogative extending Mercy in Criminal cases, t:vith which th Chief Consul is iuvcsted, after the case shall halt, been discussed in Pri , vy airNei/. It is a .curious circumstance, that this Constitu tion, after having been framed by the Council of State, should have been adopted by the Conserva tive Senate on the very same day on which it was presented to them. This proves that they dia not think that it required much of their consideration or discussion. The French Papers contain little else that is wor thy of notice. On the evening of the 4th, the Con versatory Senate had their Palace illuminated, 00 occasion of the Proclamation of BONAPARTE as Chief Consul for life? - It .is reported that GeWerdi'DzSSALINES had landed at li'ochfort from St. D0,72-ii!g. The. French Funds were much the same as before. On the zBth ultimo an Article appeared in our Paper, copied from The Times, relative to, the Dur ham Eletclion, in which a Gentleman of the name of TWEDDELL is - mentioned in a very improper, and . we are satisfied, in a very injurious and unjustifiable ,manner, and which has given great concern to his friends. We avail ourselves of the earliest oppor. tunitY of expressing our -regret ,that such a repre sentation of an individual - of great reaitude an i d respec=tability : should IraVe crept into our Paper, and we entertain the hope that this correaion of the mis-representation, will be sufficient to wipe off the aspersion so groundlessly made: On Wednesdhy last the Election for the City of Dublin finally closed. Th e numbers were for Mr. BERESFORD • - - - 1883 Mr. LATOUCHE - - - 1585 Mr. OcLz 1252 Mr. : BARRINGTON - - 616 After some polling had taken place,. Mr. OGLE and Mr. BARRINGTON both , gave up ehe contest, and, Messrs. BERESPQRD and LATOUCHE were .re. turned. • The Right Hon. W. WicicH4m was expeEted in Dublin on Thursday last. • The'Sarutiny for Norfolk has been last week car ried on, by, both parties, with the greatest vigour. The Court-`,met on Saturday, Wednesday, and Thursday, and sat from nine itV the'.in'orti'ng till six in the evening. On Thursdavrtiindteeti: - votes for , Sir J. ASTLEY were Objeddtlgto• by'. Mr. WopE LIOVSE;.of which twelve were - Yotruck :off, and seven established: And thirty-two votes for Mr. Wroree , HOUSE were objected to by the successful Candidates; . of which fourteen' were struck off and- eighteen established. All . the difi'erent Banks (Caisres) which' exist in France, are :o be melted down into one large Esta_ blisl:ment, somewhat similar to our Bank of Eng land. No other Bank is to have the right of put ting its Bills into circulation. This measure gave' birth to some animated discussions in the Council of State. A Letter received from Bengal informs us, that Lieutenant-Colonel WM. SCOTT is appointed Resi dent at Lucknow ; Jost Ax L.VE n LE, Esq. at Serin.- gapatam ; -Lieutenant-Colonel,. J. Court of Dowlut Row Seindinh ; Colonel.CL' osE, at Poonah ; Capt. J. A. Ic.iRICPATRICKI at Hyderabad. Bonds have been issued by the Madras; Govern ment for the paytne,nt• of the private Credit s of . Creditors . the late - NABOB of. ARCO T . His Highness was greatly in debt to numerous individuals, and his Bonds bore ,an enormous discount. Some..persons, however, anticipating -the measures which have been 'adopted-in the Carnatie, and which have ren_ dered the . India Company responsible for these debts, have made extensive and successful pur chases.' .. , . By theAn . na, arrived in the Medw a y f rom Alex- . andria, there:are letters from that Port of the 6th of May, at ‘vhich period perk& tranquillity prevailed in Lower . Egypt, and our Troops were, with few excepticins, healthy. On. the 6th General : BAIRD left Alexandria, for the purpose of making the necessary -arrangements- for the accommodation of our Asiatic Troops on their march. to Suez, where they were to embark for their ,several Presidencies on the Toth or istli of June, ,thcqransports being in readiness to convey them thitAer.. :,- .) : ; k:-.,- . , The Be/Tides and Atlas transports? irrliovomber last, sailed from Cork, with convias for New South - Wales, having arming the number several per Sons concerned in The late Rebellion.. On their passage 'our, the prisoners on board thefferodes formed the proje6l of seizing the ship, and of carrying her to the nearest French Settlement. They formed their plan with, great. secrecy and system, and won over to their purpose five of the sa ilo rs o f the ship. On the 2:oth December, off the island of St. An tonio, the prisoners rose upon the crew, and gained possession of the quarter-deck ; the Officers and such of their people,as remained attached to them, made a gallant resistance ; and after a desperate confli6l, -in which twelve of the mutineers were: killed and ten wounded' (of whom two died soon after), the Officers regained the ship—Of the five sailors, one was dangerously wounded. On the other side, none were seriously hurt. The liercuies and Atlas arrived at the Cape of Good Hope on the 1 zth April. Letters from Perterara, to the beginning of July, give the 'most distressing accounts of the continued Mortality in that Country.. ' Natiyes as well as Foreigners, now, by thousands, fall sacrifices to the virulence Of the infedion. Surinam was severely affiieted in like manner, but not to equal extent ; Bcibice and Issequibo were comparatively healthy. The Rev, 114 . r.
