General Diebitsch appears not to have above 25,000 or 30,000 men : thus, even if he should arrive at Adrianople, it is probable that he will not act immediately against Constantinople. He will probably wait for reinforcements. (From the Massager des Chambres, Aug. 28.) CLOTHING. VICTUALLING OFFICE, AuG. 25, 1629.

X N conformity to the Fifth Article of the De ed of Agreement between the United Company of Mer chants of England trading to the East Indies, of the one part, and the Parties to the said Deed, claiming to be Cre ditors of his late Highness Ameer Sing, formerly Rajah of Tanjore, of the other part, the Commissioners appointed under the said Agreement give Notice, that a Continua tion of the Schedule of Claims (made before the Commis• sinners in India) has been published in the London Gazette of yesterday, (Friday, the 28th instant), "in " order that all such persons as shall have any interest to " oppose or impeach the same may have sufficient oppor " tunity so to do." The Commissioners further give notice that their Office is open to receive objections, in writing, to the Claims published in the said Schedule. By order of the Board, GEORGE PARKHOUSE, Secretary. elected for Minos, as well as for his own pro vince, Seaix, where he obtained double the nuin- Crokeei letter about the Order of St. Anne, for Captain Dickenson, was dated the 24th of Decem ber, 1827; the official account of the battle having arrived in Downing street the 9th of November. Sir Edward assigned as a reason why he wrote his an swer to the Lord High Admiral, complaining of this Order for Captain Dickenson, that the Admi ralty, through their Secretary, had applied to him for copies of two secret papers of the Government, which he had transmitted, and though he wrote for an acknowledgement for their receipt, he had never received it. It was this that induced him not to write the second time to Mr. Croker. 30th Novem- ber of votes of any other Deputy. One of the Deputies elected for Rio is a poor, and conse quently honest, custom-house officer, named Castro Alves, who signalized himself by orga nizing the Consulado, so as to render the ex portation of produce easy and expeditious. Our Press continues really free, and its licentiousness seems to be repressed by the force of public opinion." PARIS, AUG. 27.—The entrance of the Russians nto Kirk-Kilissa is confirmed, only the occupation did not take place in consequence of the battle, the Russians not having met with any resistance after the combat at Aidos. The Augsburg Gazette has a letter from Munich acknowledging the mistake, which arose from a sup position that the Russians could not have advanced so far without a battle. 1 00,000 Yards of BRITISH DUCK CLOTH ber next, and the remainder by the 28th December fol lowing.

A letter, dated Rio Janeiro, 19th April, ap pears in a Philadelphia Paper, from which we extract the following : The English Government sent orders, now almost three months ago, to Lord Ponsonby to insist on immediate indemnity for all the British vessels captured in the River Plate ; if this should not be agreed to within one month, Lord Ponsonby was to hand over to Admiral Otway his instructions to make reprisals. The absence of the Admiral, and probably the desire of Lord Ponsonby to avoid such strong mea sures, have extended the time to three instead of one month, but at length the British squadron has put to sea, and it was at first understood that immediate reprisals would be made ; but it now appears that Lord Ponsonby has given a few days more before be hands over the final orders, which will put all our persons and pro perty in jeopardy. These people will not believe that extremities will be proceeded to, and they say that they have plenty of security from hosti lities in the enormous amount of British property within their power ; but, in such a case, when the national honour is implicated, I believe that the Cabinet of St. James's will consider the sacrifice of individual interest as a secondary affair. It appears that the Brazilian Government consented to allow the claim of 450,0001., but refuses to fix any specific mode of payment ; and the Eng lish Minister knows too well how little confi dence is to be put in promises' to leave the matter so far unsettled. The Marquis of Araeaty is indisposed, and Jose Clement Pereion holds temporarily the Portfolio of Foreign Affairs ; but he is as hostile to concessions as the Mar quis. In speaking of the English claims, I omitted to mention that three most valuable captures (one of them the Hellespont, having a cargo value 80,0000 were made whilst the treaty of peace was waiting at Buenos Ayres for ratification, and without previous notification of the blockade. " The Legislative Assemblies have been called extraordinarily, and met on the 2d of this month. Calemon presented a project to the Deputies r ec ommending the administration of the Bank by a Commission of seven members—four to be appointed by Government, including the Pre sident, and the remainder by the Bank proprie tors; and the raising of a metallic loan of the amount of three-fifths of the sum owing by the Government to that establishment, the interest and capital of which to be paid off by the taxes to be imposed. This project is now under the examination of a Commission, and their report and the subsequent discussions will be of the greatest interest to the country. Cavalcade, Deputy from Pernambuco, made an ineffectual attempt to call the attention of the Assembly to the suspension of the Constitution in that Pro vince, and the nomination of a Military Com mission to try those implicated in the rebellion that lately broke out in the neighbourhood of the capital ; indeed our Government appear to have acted very precipitately in that affair, for even from the documents that were published, it ap peared to be a mad project of a few obscure in dividuals, who we have just learned are all ar rested. " In the elections that were lately made for the new Legislative Body, to meet in 1830, the people have shown that they are far from indif ferent in the exercise of this important right, and have almost in every province chosen liberal members to the exclusion of all those that have r ece iv e d titles and Court favours. Alencar is PORTSMOUTH, SATURDAY—(FOURTH DAY.) At the opening of the Court, Captain Robinson was informed by the President that the Court could not permit the passages in his evidence of yesterday to be expunged, but he might add what he had to say by way of explanation. Captain Baynes contradicted the account given in the Genoa's log. Captain Thomas Smith, First Lieutenant of the Genoa, who- was stationed on her quarter-deck dur-' ing the ntstion, affirmed the correctness of the log, and said it was never meant to describe that they were engaged with so many Turkish ships, but that they were merely exposed to their fire in the manner they were placed in the enemy's curve. He then proved the use of the Genoa's springs, and that it was by their use the Genoa was placed in the beau tiful position so: highly praised by Sir Edward Co drington, which brought her broadside on the enemy, and made her opponent a complete wreck. The position of the Genoa occasionally shifted in the course of the day, but her guns always bore on the enemy. Throughout the battle the conduct of Captain Dickenson was remarkable for coolness, presence of mind, zeal, and ability. With respect to Sir E. Codrington coming on board the Genoa, he, Captain S., received him, and conducted him with a lantern to the cockpit, where Captain Bathurst lay, mortally wounded. The 'Vice-Admi ral there expressed his unqualified admiration of the position in which the ship was laid, and the way he maintained it; when Captain Bathurst, in thanking him, expressed an anxious hope that the -Lord High Admiral would remember his wife and child ren. As Captain Smith was conducting the Vice- Admiral back to the quarter-deck, he met Captain Dickenson, who apologised for not being present. As the Admiral descended the side of the ship, he inquired if lie knew where Mrs. Bathurst lived ? which Captain S. knowing, answered, and took charge of the delivery of the Admiral's sentiments to that lady. . The Court here went on the charge of the al leged false return of Captain Bathurst as killed, when he was only wounded, and survived the battle. —(Here a good deal of conversation took place be tween Sir E. Codrington, who was introduced to the Court, and the Judge Advocate, respecting some papers which had been sent down by the Ad miralty, and which Sir Edward insisted were essen tial to the case; they were intended to show the motive of Captain Dickenson in returning Captain Bathurst killed, in the expectation of thereby re ceiving a greater share of honours than he would be entitled to when it was known that Captain Bathurst had survived, and given orders to the end of the action. One of these, which was particularly dwelt upon, was a letter from Mr. Cro ker to Sir Edward at Navarin, requesting that in the delivery of certain honorary orders transmitted in a box, one of those of St. Anne should be given to Captain Dickenson. Sir Edward replied to this letter, through the Lord High Admiral, complain ing of this order being given to Captain Dickenson, under the circumstances of the action. Sir Edward then described the particulars of his visit to take leave of Captain Bathurst, on board the Genoa, on the night of the action, and persevering in stating, though he said he knew from rumour his evidence on that point had been impugned; that it was Cap tain Dickenson, and not Captain Smith, that re ceived him and conducted him to the cockpit, where he (Sir Edward), consoling Captain Bathurst, praised in the highest terms the manner in which he had brought his ship into her position (his praise being solely confined to that); that he had never praised her management in the action, but when he came upon deck with Captain Dickenson, had re proved him for neglecting to use his springs.) Cross-examined by Captain DICKENSON—Did I not on that evening go myself on board the Asia?— You did not. Did not an officer go on board you to report Capt. Bathurst mortally wounded, and was it not myself ? —An officer did come, but not you. Do you not remember my finding you seated in the cabin of the Asia on tile evening of the battle, and you there telling me that we must go to sea that night, from the probability of the danger of being burnt in the harbour, and my describing to you the shattered state of the Genoa, giving particulars which rendered it impossible that she could put to sea without slipping both our anchors and losing our mizen and main -mast, as we had only one shroud upon the two masts ?—Not one word of this took place, I having no intention of sending a single ship out of port that night, nor could the Asia have stirred under any emergency. Did not Admiral de Rigny also confer with you, saying it would not be safe to go to sea that night ? Certainly not; his own ship was as unable to go to sea that night as myself. These questions were repeated in rather a varied form by Captain Dickenson, when the answers were that " not one word of it could have passed even if I bad seen you there." The only communication, added Sir Edward, that 1 had from the Genoa, on that evening, was from an officer, not you announcing that Captain B. was mortally wounded. Captain DICKENSON—Do you remember that at the same time you were speaking of the battle, that you said you did not know how it would be taken in England, but " at all events you Captain-Lieute nants would most likely he promoted ?"—Not one ward of that 'lid or could be passed. Sir H. BLActswooD interrogated Sir E. Codring ton respecting the return of the mortal wound of Captain Bathurst, and Sir E. replied, that an ac couut of his being returned with a list of the killed and wounded, was the last return of the fleet, and was delayed by the Genoa till he was about to close his despatches. The PRESIDENT here said it was four o'clock, and asked if Captain D. had further questions to ask Sir E. C.; he replied he had several, besides wish ing to have Lieutenant Sturt examined upon some of the points not recollected by Sir E. Codrington. Sir E. added, that he had accompanied the Genoa's return of killed and wounded with a memorandum after the word killed, as annexed to Captain Ba thurst's name, a correction, mortally wounded, died after the action; and that he afterwards.remarked to Captain D., that it was fortunate for him and the Surgeon that he had been with them in the cock pit, conversing with Captain B. on the night of the battle, as he was able of his own authority, to make the correction before he closed his despatches, and thereby perhaps save both the Captain and the Sur geon from an unpleasant investigation of the point by the Lord High Admiral. It appeared, during a part of th e evidence con nected with the complaint of Sir Edward Codring ton, respecting the Admiralty documents, that Mr. PORTSMOUTH, AuG. 29.—This week has pre sented the unusual occurrence of a first interview, at Spithead, between an Empress and a Queen—the former the Consort of the Emperor of the Brazils, the latter the daughter (.1 his Imperial Majesty— Donna Maria, the young Queen of Portugal. In timation having been given by the Semaphore in the course of Tuesday, that the latter interesting per sonage might be expected here on that day, the Commander-in-Chief and the Lieutenant-Governor made such arrangements for her reception as were suitable to her exalted station. Accordingly, soon after four o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, the troops in the garrison were drawn up to line the streets leading from Landport-gates to the George Hotel, through which, precisely at the hour of five, her Majesty and suite passed into the garrison, under a royal salute from the ramparts, and alighted at the George Inn. The young Queen immediately after wards presented herself at the window, when the troops marched past in sub-divisions, the officers presenting arms; a respect which the young Queen acknowledged by gracefully courtesying. Her Ma jesty and suite dined at the George at seven o'clock. On the following morning she proceeded in an open carriage to the Grand Parade to witness the guard mounted, and received the customary salutes, and afterwards rode through the streets of this town. In the course of the day the Hon. Lady Stopford, the Hon. Mrs. and Miss Elliott, Lady Otway, Lady Seymour, Mrs. Col. Burgoyne, &c. were presented by Major-General Sir Colin Campbell to the Queen. Her Majesty in the evening entertained at dinner with her suite the Lieutenant-Governor, Lieu tenant-Colonel Ware, and some of the Brazilian officers. On Thursday morning the Superb steam vessel, bearing the Imperial standard of Brazils, hove in sight, with the Empress on board from Ostend, when Royal salutes were fired from the men of war in the harbour (the Victory hoisting the Imperial flag), and the Briton and Brazilian frigates at Spit head. The Empress left Ostend on Tuesday even ing at eight o'clock, and arrived at Spithead, after an exceedingly boisterous passage, at nine o'clock on Thursday morning, when she immediately repaired on board the Imperatriz, bearing the Brazilian Admiral's flag, apartments in which had been splen didly fitted up with silk, chintz furniture, and superb plate glasses, by Messrs. Hill and Perkins, uphol sterers, High-street. Soon after her Majesty reached the Imperatriz, the young Queen of Portugal and suite, indifferent to the weather, which was very un favourable, proceeded to the New Custom-house landing-place, the passage from the George Inn to which was lined with the ttotips of the garrison, and embarked under salutes frcan the garrison and ships of war, in the Admiral's barge, for the Lightning steam-vessel, to join her Royal step-mother. The Empress of Brazils suffered in a great degree from the effects of her rough passage from Ostend, but has nearly recovered. The Empress is described as possessing most agreeable features and very interesting manners. Her Majesty has not been on shore since her arrival at Spithead, nor has the young Queen of Portugal, who is in excellent health and spirits, landed since she embarked on Thurs day. The Commander-in-Chief, with the principal Naval officers, Lieut.-Governor and Staff, have since paid their respects to their Majesties at Spithead. The Imperatriz (with these illustrious passengers), Isabel, and the corvette proceed to-morrow to Rio Janeiro. In the suite of the Empress are—the Marquis de Barbacena, Imperial Commissary for re ceiving and accompanying the Imperial Bride; Ba roness of Sturmfelder, and Countess of Itapagipe, Ladies of Honour; Chevalier Saldanha, and Cheva lier D'Almeida, Chamberlain ; Chevalier D'Oliveira, Secretary of Embassy; Chevalier D'Hennin, Pri vate Secretary to her Imperial Majesty; Doctor Cassnova, Physician ; his Serene Highness the Duke of Leuchtenherg, Count Mejcan, his Tutor, and Count Sprcth, Aid-dc-camp. Those in the suite of Queen Donna Maria are—their Excellences Madame Donna de Cancer°, Madame de Masca renhas, Mademoiselle de Brusco, Marquisses de Palma and de Valence, Viscount de Itabayana, Che valiers de Mascarenhas, de Mattos, de Guerrein, de Bayard, de Couttenho, de Lisboa ; Marquis Lisboa, Chevaliers M. A. de Paira, M. de Paira. The Mar quis de Palmella had his last audience with their Majesties this afternoon. As an escort to the Brazilian frigates, an applica tion was made to the Government of this country for an English man-of-war, at least to the Equator, . - and the Melville, 74, Capt. Schomberg, was conse quently ordered to be got ready for sea on Monday. She was manned yesterday, and will go out of har bour on Tuesday. Our Government, not being particularly solicitous on the subject, alleged that the Melville could not go to sea until the termina tion of Capt. Dickenson's Court Martial released Capt. Schomberg (one of the Members). This event the Brazilian squadron would have awaited, had not an express reached the MarquiS of Palmella, at three o'clock this morning, from Falmouth, with dispatches from the Governor of Terceira, brought by a Lieut.-General, who was ten days on his pas. sage. Adverse, weather, we learn, had compelled the fleet to anchor under the lee of the island, and within reach of the batteries. In this predicament they resolved on a" coup de main, and promptly landed their first division of troops, under cover of the fire of their fleet. These were as promptly at tacked, and compelled to surrender. The second division shared the same fate. Five hundred prisoners remained in the hands of the Pedroists, and seven hundred were either killed or drowned ; their bodies washed up on the shore for several days after the attempt. In the meantime the fire of Fort Paro sunk four gun-boats, and the remainder of the fleet, which were much shattered, got off and sought shel ter at St. Michael's. The Commandant of the Mi guelists was missing, and it is believed he was drowned. The General who brought the des patches, on his arrival at Exeter, hearing the Mar quis Palmella was here, instead of proceeding to London, repaired direct to this port. This intelli gence having given the Brazilians necessary confi dence, the Melville's services are not now required as an escort, and she will proceed forthwith to the Mediterranean.

The Lord Suffield transport, Lieutenant Barber, Agent, arrived to-day, from Fernando Po the 19th June, and Sierra Leone the 23d July, with naval, ordnance- and victualling stores, and naval and mili tary invalids, seventeen men accused of piracy, and an African witness to depose to their guilt. The Eden, 26, Captain Owen, arrived at Fernando Po on the 10th June, from Sierra Leone, the crew of which had suffered in a dreadful degrce from a ma lignant fever they had caught at the latter frightful settlement. On her pasage from Sierra Leone, we lament to say, she buried 47 (including acting Capt. Baddesley, her Surgeon, Dr. Burn, his two Assist ants, and the Carpenter). On her arrival at Fer- nando Po she landed the remainder of the crew who were infected ; these were soon afterwards restored to health. The Sybille, Commodore Collier, who with the ship's company was well, arrived there on the 18th of June, but finding it sickly, sailed again on the following day, to cruise off Whydah, in search of the large slaver, for which the Commodore has so long been anxiously looking out. This slaver is represented to be about the size of the North Star. Lieutenant Ayrey, of the Sybille, is promoted to the command of the Medina, vice Commodore Rowe, invalided. Lieutenant Parrey, of the North Star, succeeded Commodore Downes (who was pro moted for his gallantry) in the Black Joke, tender to the Sybille. The latter officer returned to Eng land in the Lord Suffield. The Champion, Capt. Scott, was at Ascension on the 10th July. She had been to Fernando Po, and although her crew was then healthy, she had lost Mr. Ritheroe, the surgeon, Mr. Brickwood, mid shipman, and two marines. Dr. St. John and Dr. Field, both of the Colonial Establishment, were also dead. By a letter of a recent date, from an intelligent officer of our squadron at Constantinople, we learn that the Russian squadron, consisting of eighteen ships, was lying in sight of our own, and that in the night previous to the date of this communication, they effected a landing on the Asiatic shore; the bat teries, however, opening upon them, they re-embarked without doing any mischief. It is credited by a portion of Turkish politicians, that the Grand Seignor is not using his utmost exertions to defend his dominions; that contemplating the entrance of the Russians into Constantinople, he will readily, when that event occurs, relinquish the disputed principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia, pay the expences of the Russian campaign, and then avail himself of the presence and support of the Russia►► army to re-model both his civil and military institu tions. The Turks are apprehensive of destruction to their ships by tire vessels. The services of Capt. Hanchett, who had given 9,0001. for the Hylton Joliffe steam vessel, were at once rejected by the Capi tan Paella. Lord Strangford has been ordered to proceed to the Court of King Miguel of Portugal. The Briton frigate, Hon. Capt. Gordon, was ordered on Thurs day to proceed to Lisbon with his Excellency. THE MURDER NEAR THAME. Sewell and Tyler underwent an examination oi Saturday, in the Magistrate's Chamber at Ayles• bury, on the charge of murdering Mr. Edden, it October last. _ _ _ Eleanor Hines, a young woman who cohabited with Tyler, was examined, whose evidence went to show that Tyler could not have been concerned in the murder, as he was in her company at Thame at the time it was stated to have taken place, or that his absence from her was of too short a period—not exceeding in the whole half an hour—that it was impossible for him to have been in Haddenham field when the alleged murder was perpetrated. The prisoners were remanded for further examina tion on Wednesday, when Tyler said he would bring forward other witnesses to prove where he was on the night in question. Lord NUGENT (in the presence of Sewell, who bad been removed from the bar, and afterwards brought in whilst Hines was giving her evidence) told Tyler that he felt it right to inform him that Sewell had admitted they were together that night, arid that Sewell farther said he had seen him (Tyler) strike Edden with a hammer. Elizabeth Jones was at Sunbury five weeks ago last Sunday. She saw Solomon Sewell, and told him there was a great outcry at Thame about the murder of Noble Edden. Sewell said, if he was taken, Ben Tyler should not be five hours after, for he was father of all. Witness saw Tyler afterwards with Sewell, talking. When she was speaking to Sewell, he shook his finger at Tyler. The widow of the deceased deposed to having heard her husband say he saw Tyler and Sewell one morning on the Crenion-road, about three o'clock, with something concealed. It was at the time that Mr. Harding lost his sheep, and in the spring before his death. On the night of the murder witness was ironing, and thought she saw her husband rushing by her, with his arms up as if guarding his head. Wit ness put down her iron and run into Mr. Chester's, and said, " 0 dear! 0 dear! my husband is mur dered, and his ribs are broken !" She said she thought she saw her husband and Tyler; she never said so before, because she thought it would be con sidered only fancy; but if it was so it would come out. She sent for Tyler to come and see her hus band when he was brought home. She asked him if he would touch the corpse ; he said " No ; he did not like to touch a corpse." He turned round and said, " Ah ! the poor man is murdered, sure enough." After other evidence had been offered, the Court broke up, and adjourned to Monday next.

A WOMAN FINED FOR STEALING HER owx Goosa !—Last week, a curious case came on for hearing before two Magistrates (not a hundred miles from Birstal), arising out of the following circumstances : A woman, residing at Liversedge, had three geese, one of which had strayed amongst a neighbour's flock, and the natural consequence was, that she fetched it home. The owner of the flock (who appeared to be somewhat of a gander), on learning this, applied for and obtained a war rant against the poor woman, although, on counting his own geese, he found he had the right number. This, strange as it may appear, was visited by a fine upon the poor woman of 14s. although she had witnesses present (of whom she bought the goose in dispute) to prove it was her own property, but whom the Magistrates refused to examine. Query—Can so " geosish" a charge of felony be compounded ?—.Leeds Intelligencer. A few days ago, as E. THORNTON was reap ing, he inflicted a serious wound upon his ankle with the sickle, which was aggravated by his fellow-labourer having advised him to apply a plaster4tobacco.

(From the Moniteur of Friday.) PARIS, AUG. 27.—We have this moment re ceived the following communication : " PARIS, AUG. 27.—Sir,—I beg you to have the goodness to insert the following letter in the next number of your journal; " I am, Sir, &c. " The Minister of Marine and Colonies, " BARON D'HAUSSEZ." " TO BARON D'IIAUSSEZ, MINISTER OF MARINE. - ------- " Sir,—l have just read in a journal the following article : " M. d'Haussez wrote to Count Roy before -big was appointed Minister of the Marine, that he eon gratulated himself that he did not make part of the new Administration, which appeared to him so un popular that he doubted its duration. M. Roy has shown his letter to several persons when a report was spread that M. d'Haussez was appointed Minister. " It is very true tharsince my retirement from the Ministry you have done me the honour to write to me to repeat the testimonies of attachment which I have constantly received from you, but your letter contained nothing similar to what is insinuated in the article which I have just quoted, and it is false that I have shown it to any person whatever. " You may make, Sir, whatever use you please of my letter. I beg your Excellency to accept the as-. surance of my distinguished consideration. (Signed) " ROY." "Paris, Aug. 26." The Princess de Polignac, who left London on the 19th with her family, has just arrived at Paris. The following is an abridged report of the trial from the Gazette des Tribunau.r : As had been expected, the court where this trial was heard was excessively crowded. As soon as the doors were opened, the people rushed in en masse; and so great was the noise and confusion, that the Court was obliged to adjourn for three quarters of an hour. The Duke de Chartres was present, and took his seat on the right of the magis. B tra e t r e ti s n ; and de among m the aectillidni,toy Deputies, ti i es, Cla a i n r d les Dupi Guizot, Cousin, and Villemain were observed. When the Court resumed, M. Bertin, sen., the chief editor of the Journal des Wats, said that he was desirous of taking upon himself all the responsibility of the ar ticle which was the subject of the present proceed ing. After receiving it from the writer, he stated that he had altered the phraseology in many parts, and suppressed some portions of it. M. Bequet, being interrogated, said that his ar ticle had certainly undergone some alteration, but still it had been the free expression of his opinion. M. LEVAVASSEUR, the King's Advocate, theta opened the case. He said the cause which was now about to be tried afforded a mournful example of the progress which the licentiousness of the press had made. Hitherto, however violently the deposi tories of poWer might have been attacked, the King's person appeared always to be respected. The jour nals acknowledged, that being placed beyond time sphere of those passions which agitate other men, to him was due the public gratitude for whatever good was effected, but to him none of the evil was to be imputed. At present, however, this was no longer the case. The Ministers of the King were no longer attacked. It was the King himself—he, who cats have no judges on earth, because he knows no equal, still less master—he is dragged before the tribunal of opinion. The most independent acts of his pre rogative become the objects of bitter censure, and it is not hesitated to be said, that between him and his people there exists only the bond of fear, be cause that of confidence and affection is burst. The circumstances which had led to this auda ciousness were well known. The King in his wis dom thought proper to change the ministry and to call near him those whose devotion and fidelity be was sure of. (Here murmurs interrupted the speaker.) The President directed silence, and stated that he would visit with severe punishment any one who should either express-applause or disapprobation. - _ M. LEVAVASSEUR continued—As soon as the King had called to his Councils those on whorls he could rely, an outcry was made, and accusations of the worst character were directed against the new Ministry. While those attacks were confined to the Ministers they were silent, but they could not quietly behold the King himself attacked. " Thus," said the Editor of the Journal des Debals," behold again broken the bond which united the people to the King." Now, there were two interpretations of this passage; either that the King no longer loves' his people, and had no more confidence in his sub jects, or that the people no longer loved their King, and had no more confidence in him. In the first case, M. Levavasseur denied that the King had lost the confidence of his people. His reign had always been mild, and it was but lately, in one of the most so'emn ceremonies of religion, he appeared without distrust in the midst of that people which was said to dread him. Was his countenance less calm ? was his look less serene ?—was his guard less nu merous ?—(Laughter, and cries of" more numerous.") He thought he need scarcely attempt to prove the criminality of charging the King with want of affec tion for his people. Was not love for his people the best attribute of a king ? Was not the imputa tion of a contrary sentiment, " Aux plus cruel tyrans, la phis cradle injure ?" _ _ and would it change its character when addressed to the successor of Louis XII., of Henry IV., and the Martyr King ? The people no longer love their King. If this were true to whom was it to be at tributed but to those diurnal declamations, the ob- ject of which was, to misrepresent the sentiments of the King, and falsify his intentions. M. Levavasseur, then alluded to the case of M. Syrieys de Mayrinhar, a member of the Elective Chamber, who thought proper to speak of the enemies of the King. The orator, however, only alluded to some enemies of the King, whereas the article in question speaks of the whole of France possessing a feeling of indifference, if not of hatred, towards the King. The attack of the deputy was repressed: so will that of the jour nalist be. of M the .
