M. Bonceune concluded his reply fur the accus ed Ricque and Ledein, with some further reflec tions on the dangers arising from the institution of rui•diast companions of liberty, and other secret associations. It had been conceded that these per sons were neither authors of nor accomplices in the coospiracy. But (continued the same advocate) is it possible that Senechault is guilty relatively to the first charge ? Is it possible the public officers have persisted in the accusation ? You will not treat this poor man with severity ; you will perceive that he a nothing more than another Sasebo Ponca, so unfortunate squire of a new Don Quixote, who has anigoed him the government of en island in terra pito. Behold him, like the Governor of Bars tans, occupied solely with the conduct of his ad• ministration, and not with the success of the con spiracy. M. Boncenne added a few words on be bilf of &meals, who wept bitterly. M. Brechard stated in favour of his client, Nor mandire, that he voluntarily pee himself op to justice. He called upon the Jury to acquit those persons, who did nothing but obey the chief of the national guard. " Yoo would not desire, Gentle men," said lie, " that Poitiers, a city so distin guished by its attachment to the religion of our fathers, and fidelity to our Kings, should hence forward be designated es the city of blood."—(A general murmur amongst the auditory.) The Procureur-Gene►al said it was impossible to suppose such a qualification should be admitted. The J ury would perform their duty with impartiality. M. Brechard replied—" He spoke to royalists like the d'Elbees, the Rochejaquelins, the Bon champs, and many others, who were not only the heroes of fidelity, but of liberty also." The last sitting of this trial will commence at six o'clock to-morrow morning, when the President will sum up the evidence. French Funds.—Five per Cents. 99 f. 35 c. Bank Stock, 1,652 f. 50 c.

Sir JAMS, KIMPT, the Governor of Nova Scotia, was absent on a tour of inspection through the province of New Brunswick, and we are furnished with accounts of his visits to, and hie reception at, Fredericton, St. Andrew's, and St. John's, its principal towns. The commercial Acts passed at the close of the last Session, for regulating the trade betweeo the British possessions in America and the West Indies, arid the other parts of the world, had arrived at Halifax, and formed the subject of general attention. They were announced on the Isth oh. by a Proclamation issued at Halifax, to be in immediate operation. A duty of 51. the barrel on wheaten flour had been demanded on the cargo of an American schooner then in port, and is described as the first levy under the new Act. Of the policy or impolicy of these important Acts, the Colonial Journalists scarcely venture, is yet, to express an opioion ; but they appear to think there has been a want of direct agency or representation of their interests through out their progress; and that, if they prove ulti mately beneficial, it will have been owing solely to the liberal attention sod foresight of the Govern ment at home. Some inconvenience, it is evident, will arise to the province of Canada from the new Act. It has long been supposed that a great pro portion of the flour exported from Canada was the production of the United States: that fact is now broadly admitted, and it follows, therefore, from the operation of the restrictive measures about to be adopted, which prohibit the importation of article. from the States by means of the inland intercourse, which has hitherto subsisted, will not only preclude the Canadians from exporting American produce, but perhaps deprive them of a portion of their own uscle, by the introduction of such powerful coin t-titors into the market. The other British will, however, have the advantage of oh. hulling the most essential articles of consumption, through the most direct and the cheapest convey ance. His MAJESTY'S yacht, the Royal George, Captain Wu. J.

The Memorial of the inhabitants of these towns to the Secretory of State for the Home Department, for the removal of the co•niels from Portsmouth Duck yard, that the labourers might' be reissued for the duties which they perform, in their place, was presented by Mr. Mtocutir, when the Right Hon. Secretary remarked, that the subject was im portant and deserved consideration, which it should have in all its bearings, which was more than of a local nature, as the great espenee of removing the convicts to parts beyond the seas, and for buildings and neeevsary establi.hments whilst there, was ■ serious matter. He further remarked, that most of the men confined its she hulks are only for seven years ; that he had thought of sending some to Ber muda and other parts, but neither that, nor the rending them away to Botany Bay, could imme diately be determined upon.—(Portsmouth Tele. graph.)

As this movement has not been determined on from any official motive, but has purely pleasure and instruction for object, it would, in our opinion, be hazardous to prononoce it connected with the Marquis of CONTNONAM'S recent end precipitate mission from Edinburgh to Ireland, whatever may be alleged to that effect.
