PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE. PARIS, JUNE 7.—M. de Chateaubriand has returned to Paris, and has resumed his modest apartment in the Rue d'Enfer. A great number of visits has celebrated his return ; but nothing indicates that he is a new star who has arisen over our political horizon. It is probable that the hopes of his friends will not be realized. The Court regards the noble Viscount as the chief of a party, called so amusingly the apos tate or defection party, and ascribing to him the sin of having transported the artillery of the Journal des Debats into the camp of the Liberals, give him credit for the electorial returns of 1827. It is known, besides, that his project would be to form a coalition Ministry, selecting the Atli nisters only from the right centre, from the left centre, and from the left side. The right ex presses indignation at this project, and the left receives very coolly his advances. The Ministry must now repent at not having assumed an attitude more decisive ; for where it might expect to find auxiliaries, it finds only hostility ; and having nobody to support its views in a manner to give them effect, either by an in fluence acqu;.red over the country, or by the in fluence which talent never fails to obtain, its resolutions are uncertain, and its hesitation re acts upon the Chamber, whose deliberations display none of the characters of a settled sys tem. The first speeches delivered on the budget have been only vain declamations, with the ex ception of that which M. De Lafitte pronounced, containing many well-reasoned details and use ful views. Two places of Presidents at our Supreme Court (the Court of Cassation) have been added to the vacancy of that of the First President. The public expect with impatience the choice made by the Ministry to fill them, because the selection will reveal more than one secret. Pru dent people, who desire to see the Administra tion take root in the country, point out as a fit person for one of these places M. Dupont de l'Eure, a celebrated deputy and a highly esteemed magistrate. Will our Ministers have the courage to make a choice which their in terest ought to dictate ? We have reason to doubt it. An objection is made to this choice, on the ground that it would displease the Dau phin, because M. Dupont replied one day to the Prince, who said to him—" M. Dupont, you would love us if you knew us." " Sir, I shall always love my country." The reply has been perverted, but it had nothing offensive. These little recollections, and these little aversions, can be nothing else but ridiculous. You have seen in our journals, if I have not myself told you, that the King, in a conver sation with the Members of the Bureau of the Chamber, had said that he gave 1,000 francs a month to some Deputies, who, without such assistance, could not live in Paris. A new journal, called Le Courier des Electeurs, pub lished these words, which threw the Chamber into great confusion. The Deputies demanded explanations from the Ministry, and reproached them for such conduct. The latter, extremely embarrassed, promised an official explanation, and this explanation, which has been given some days ago, is so equivocal that it satisfied nobody. You may rely upon the correctness of the state ment, as it has been reported. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.—(LAST NIGHT.) .LONDON BRIDGE. The Earl of ELDON presented a petition from certain inhabitants of Bridge Ward, against the London Bridge Approaches Bill, and praying that, should it pass, compensation might be granted to them.—Read and referred to the Committee. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY stated that the order given to the city of London for producing its accounts was not yet complied with. He, therefore gave notice, from what had come to his knowledge, that sinless the accounts were pro duced on Monday, he should then make a motion on the subject. Earl BATHURST explained that their Lord ships' order had been transmitted to the Lord Mayor, who had immediately given the necessary directions to Mr. Scott. The accounts were al ready in a state of great forwardness, and would, most probably, be laid on their Lordships' table by Friday. He could assure their Lordships that there had been no delay in preparing them. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY observed, that it was only yesterday the consent of the Corn mon Council was obtained for the production of these accounts; and if they were not produced on Friday, he should submit the motion of which he had given notice. TAXATION AND CORN LAWS. Lord SKELMERSDALE presented a petition from the Operative Boot and Shoe-makers of Ash ton-under-Lyne, complaining of distress, and praying for relief from taxation, from absentee expenditure, from excessive poor rates, and for a repeal of the Corn Laws. WOOL. Earl DARNLEY presented a petition from the Owners and Occupiers of Land in a hundred of Norfolk, praying for protection against Foreign Wool. METROPOLIS POLICE. On the Motion of the Duke of WELLINGTON the Metropolis Police Bill was read a third time and passed. _ _ _ GAME LAWS. The Duke of RICHMOND, seeing the Noble Baro" opposite in his place, wished to aik him whe: they or not it was his intention to bring forward any other mea'ure on the subject of Game at any future time ? Lord WHAIYCLIFFE replied, that he should most certainly not lose sight of the question, and in some shape or other lie Should certainly again bring it before Parliament; but whether it should first be submitted to this House or to the other, was another question. Were it not for a matter of form, ;t would be in many respects more convenient to originate a measure in that House than in the House of Com mons. Under the circumstances of the case at pre sent, considering that the former Bill had received the sanction of the House of Commons, and only been lost in their Lordships' House by a majority of two, perhaps the Government might be disposed to take up the question ; and if it would, he would most readily surrender it. If it would not, and he could produce any measure likely to meet its sup port, be would not grudge any trouble he might be at in again brin g ing the subject forward. The Earl of IVIALMESBURY protested against the doctrine, that the Government ought to take up a measure because the major 'Y against it was so small. He hoped that the time world never come when the Government would think proper to inter fere with the amusements of country gentlemen. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY—The Noble Baron could not hope that the measure would be supported by Government, when the head of the Government had voted in the majority against the Bill. Lord WHARNCLIFFE took a different view of the question from the Noble Earl. He did not consider the subject only as a matter of amusement for country gentlemen, but as a question of Police, and the Government was bound to see that outrage such as now occurred did not take place. The Earl of DARNLEY could not conceive that th - e . measure interfered with the amusements of the country gentlemen ; and if it did, he should think that of no importance. He was sorry that a Bill of go much consequence had been thrown out on such flimsy, and he might say, without meaning to give offence, false pretences, as that it interfered with amusements of country gentlemen. The Earl of WES I'MORLAND wished that Noble Lords who now talked of flimsy and false pretences, had attended to give their reasons in favour of the Bill when it was debated. His Lord ship was entering further into the question, when he was reminded that there was no question before the House. METROPOLIS ROADS' BILL. On the motion of the Duke of RICHMOND, the Metropolis Roads' Bill went through a Com mittee, and was ordered to be read a third time to morrow. GRAND JURIES (IRELAND). On the motion of the Earl of WICKLOW, their Lordships went into a Committee on the Grand Jury presentment Bill (Ireland). Lord CARBERRY praised the object of the Bill, but thought its provisions not calculated to answer the end proposed. He hoped that the Bill would be pestpoiieil till another Session. The Earl of WICKLOW defended the Bill as particularly necessary, since the Tithe Composition Bill had given new powers to the alloters. The system of presentments was itself good, and they answered the purpose to a certain extent of poor rates, but those who apportioned the assessment on different baronies were irresponsible, which this Bill was to remedy. The Duke of WELLINGTON agreed that the principle of the Bill was most just ; but he thought the details defective, and recommended that it should be postponed until next Session. After a few words from Lord DARNLEY, ob jecting to the manner in which business was hurried over at the end of the Session, Lard WICKLOW consented to withdraw the Bill, and it was postponed for three months.— Adjourned.

His MAJESTY held a Court yesterday in St. James's Palace, at which the following presen- - tations took place : Lord WYNFORD on being raised to the Peerage. Sir NictioLas TINDAL on being appointed Lord Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas. Sir JAILES SCARLET; on being appointed his Majesty's Attorney-General. Mr. Suonax, on being appointed the King's Solicitor- General, on which occasion his MAJESTY was pleased to confer the honour of Knighthood upon him. The KING held a Frivy Council, at which Mr. BULLER attended as Clerk. The Earl of ROSSLYN was introduced, sworn in a Privy Councillor, and took his seat at the Board ac cordingly. His MAJESTY'S Speech, to be delivered on closing the present Session of Parliament, was arrranged at the Council. 'Sir NICHOLAS TINDAL was introduced, sworn in a Privy Councillor, and took his seat at the Board ac cordingly. The Earl of ROSSLYN was sworn into office as Keeper of the Privy Seal, when his MAJESTY delivered the Seal of Office to the Noble Earl. The St. Petersbu gh Journal of the 7th of May has been received this afternoon. It con tains an official report or bulletin from the camp at Tchernowody, announcing that the passage of the Danube has been effected at three points, as will be seen by the following. The Russians have gained another slight advantage in Asia : NEWS FROM THE ARMY_ ST. PETERSBURGH, MAY 25. CAMP AT TCHERNOWODY, MAY 11.—The passage of the Danube is effected at three points. A column of cavalry has passed the river at the bridge of Satounowo. The 3d corps passed it in boats near Hirchowa. A part of the 2d corps will pass at Kalarasch, as soon as the bridge is ready. The delay inevitable in passing a great river in boats is the cause that the passage of the principal corps of the army is not yet effected. However, almost all the troops that are to compose it have already reached the camp before Tchernowedy. Our flotilla on the Danube has also arrived in the river, and is off Kalarasch. The head-quarters, which left Gallacz on on the 29th, wen , the same day to Shorsary, on the 30th to Visiri, and on the Ist :.Jay to Pio-Petri. On the 6th they passed the Danube, near HieeLnwa, were transferred to Gropo- Czeban, and on the 7th to kaltadji. On the Bth they were fixed in the camp before Tchernowedy. The enemy does not yet appear any where. For some days past he has entirely refrained front undertaking any thing. TIFLIS, APRIL 23.—A report from Major-General Pankratjew, commanding the left wing of our troops, gives an account of an attack made by a numerous horde of Courds upon three villages, which they surprised and plundered. They were however pursued and overtaken by 60 Cossacks and some infantry, and entirely routed, with the lose of 40 killed, and 25 prisoners, among whom was their commander, Achmet Aga, a relation of Hussein Pacha. The loss of the Russians was very trifling. Dutch Papers of the 10th instant have been received, the following are the only extracts worth giving CORFU, MAY 16.-0 a the same day that the Procla mation respecting the blockade of the Turkish coast by the Greeks was published here, the Madagascar frigate sailed, as is supposed, first to Prevesa, to acquaint the Turkish and Greek Commanders with the measure that has been adopted, and afterwards to publish it all along the coast as far as the Mores. Various reports have since been published, some affirm that the agents of the three Power at London have signed an additional article to the Protocol of 16th March, de termining that the boundaries of Greece shall positively not extend beyond the Mores and the Cyclades. At the same time Russia has promised to confine its blockade in the Archipelago to the Dardanelles. Should these reports prove true, all the exertions made by the Greeks on the Continent must be fruitless, and they would be summoned to recal their troops to the Peloponnesus. The Moniteur was the only Paper published in Paris on Monday. It announces in a short official article that the Court was to go into mourning for the Queen of SPAIN for three weeks.

The following are extracts from German, Prus sian, and Brussels Papers. It is said that Count CAPO D'ISTRIA is resolved to resign the Go vernment of Greece, and will soon publish a declaration on this subject. This appears very unlikely under existing circumstances, when the Russians wish to maintain a secret understanding with Greece while they carry on the war into the interior of Turkey. But time sill bhow the true course of events :•••••• ANCONA, MAY 22.—Letters from Naples say that Mr. Gordon with Count Guilleminot and M. Von Royer (the Prussian Ambassador) will go from Naples to Zante, and thence to Constantinople. Mr. Gordon probably wishes to obtain in the lonian islands some particulars respecting Greece. Letters from Corfu positively affirm that Count Capo d'lstria is resolved to resign the government of Greece, and will soon publish a declaration on this subject. People ask who will undertake the direction of the infant state if the President now retires ? Persons who attribute to po litical causes every event, even when it may be accounted for on personal considerations, suppose that the meeting of the Emperor of Russia and King of Prussia has some con nection with the affairs of Greece and Turkey, and that, perhaps, a Prussian Prince may be placed at the head of the Greek state; of course, England and France must assent, and a Prussian Prince be ready to accept the proposal. Pomsn FRONTIERS, MAY 24.—We base heard from Constantinople of the arrival of a Persian Ambassador, for the alleged purpose of concluding an alliance between the two Powers to support each other against the increasing power of Russia. Though the Porte has no great confi dence in the Persians, it is said to be disposed to listen to the proposals of the Persian Ambassador, with the under. standing that it may conclude peace at its own option, and to have therefore sent Commissioners to receive him in form. The whole Persian nation seems to be incensed against the Russians. The murder of the Rassian.Am bassador is said to have been owing partly to this national hatred, and partly to his having given an asylum in his hotel to several criminals and female slaves,--among others an eunuch, from the province of Erivan, who was pursued by the Persian authorities, is said to have found refuge in the Russian Ambassador's hotel. The existing treaties, and the customs of the East, certainly give to foreign Ambaisidors the right of asylum, and the Ambassador seems to have been entitled to extend his protection to this man, as the native of a province now belonging to Russia. So much the greater must have been the crimes of which this fugitive was accused, since the whole population of Teheran re. quired that he should be given up, and the refusal of the Ambassador led to the unhappy catastrophe. VIENNA, Mai' 30.—Mention has again been made on 'Change of an intended emission of Treasury Bonds for twenty millions of florins, and a great financial operation intended by the National Bank, but these reports seem to rest on no foundation. Trade has been very active at Venice since it was declared a free port, and several fo reign merchants are said to intend to settle there. FRONTIERS OF &AVIA, MAY 22.—Turkish Commis. sioners have bought within the last week several thou sand bushels of corn for Widdin, where provisions are said to be scarce, and great quantities are required for the troops assembled there. A great deal of ammunition and artillery has been sent from Belgrade to Bulgaria. Some hundred Servians are gone to the corps on the Danube, which seems to contradict what has been said on public grounds of the Convention of the Servians with the Porte. It is said that 10,000 Albanians have marched from Thes saly, to join the army of the Grand Vizier. Corn is still scarce at Constantinople, but rice plentiful. TRIESTE, MAY 29.—The Captain of a ship, arrived in 24 days from Carabusa, says that two French ships, which were taking a cargo of oil at Almiro, from Marseilles, have been attacked, and plundered of all their money by the Turks. Only two Greek armed ships were cruising on those seas. Accounts from Metelino of 28th April announce that the navigation to the Gulf of Contessa has been again really allowed by the Russians, and that the squadron blockading the Dardanelles lets all ships pass that have not cargoes of ammunition or provisions. By accounts from Patras to 12th May, Missolonghi was still in the hands of the Turks, but expected soon to sur render. The Hellas Greek frigate was ac anchor in the vicinity. On 14th May a heavy cannonade from the sea side was heard at Santa Maura. VIENNA, MAY 30.—Metalliques, 89} ; Bank Shares, BRUSSELS, JUNE B.—Admiral Sir Sidney Smith, whom some journals have sent to Constantinople to de fend the Empire of the Crescent, is now at Antwerp, where he arrived yesterday by the steam .boat. Mr. Clews, a British Cabinet messenger, passed through here on the 6th, with despatches from London to Vienna. Our journals are filled with details of the King's tour through the province. BERLIN, JUNK 4.—We learn from Warsaw that the Empress of Russia and her brother William would set out for Berlin on the 2d, and arrive here on the 6th in the evening. It was thought that his Imperial Highness the young Grand Duke Alexander would accompany his august mother. There is seldom a week passes at our Police Offices without some complaint or other, being urged either on the part of the Parish Officers or against them, respecting the abuses growing out of the present system of parochial regulations. In one instance, perhaps, individuals bring their complaints against the parish, in another, the parish puts forth its charges against individuals, but in either case, we observe , the bl ess i ngs o f a definite judgment are seldom or never arrived at. What has led us to these observations is, the following distressing circumstance that transpired, yesterday, at the Queen-square, Police Office. It seems that NELSON, a beadle belonging to the parish of St. Luke, Chelsea, brought to this office a female, between 20 and 30 years of age, in a coach, in order that she might be immediately passed by the Magis trates to the parish of Marylebone, to which she belonged. The poor creature being unable to walk, was carried from the coach into the office, groaning with the greatest agony. She was in labour, and had been in that state for some time; but at the risk of her life the parish officers of St. Luke's, Chelsea, had caused her to be conT eyed before the Magistrates, to be passed to her own parish. Now, can any thing, we ask, be more revolting to common sense, nay, even to common huma nity, than the simple statement of the above fact ? Yet the system is full as much to blame as the Jacks in office who acted by its dictates, and under shelter of its influence ; nor can it be too soon modified and corrected, if its very first principles are to introduce a petty spirit of liti- gation between parish and parish, in the foster ing of which humanity, as a matter of course, is wholly overlooked. The registries are going on vigorously, but cautiously, throughout Clare, and are for the most part favourable to Mr. O'CoNNELL. Up to Saturday evening the number of freeholders registered was ninety, out of which eighty-two are friendly to that gentleman. There is, how ever, we learn, an under-current of opposition, latterly set in against him, which is not the less to be guarded against, because it works its way noiselessly, and with no ostentation of strength or determination. Nevertheless the chances are a hundred to one in favour of Mr. O'CONNELL, who needs only a few more such generous and high-spirited backers as Mr. OT WAY CAVE to enable him, at the very first struggle, to paralyze the energy of his op ponents. Mr. CAVE, we understand, has written to his agent, Mr. G. HARRISON, of Castle Otway, directing him to " take care that such of his tenants in the county of Clare as wish to support Mr. O'CONNELL at the ensuing elec tion, and are unable at their own expellee to un dertake a journey for that purpose, should have the necessary means afforded them of gratifying their feelings in this respect, and of doing what appeared to him (Mr. CAVE), and as he hoped it would to others, a sacred act of duty." Such conduct is as praiseworthy as it is prompt and decisive. Accounts are said to have been received in town from Mexico, via New York, which are six days later in date than those previously re ceived. All was so tranquil in Mexico that they were preparing for the installation of the new President. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY. TWELVE 0' CLOCK.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY. HOUSE OF LORDS. The House sat in a Committee of Privileges today. DUKE OF CUMBERLAND'S CLAIM TO VOTE AT THE ELECTION OF THE REPRESENTATIVE PEERS OF IRELAND AS EARL OF ARMAGH. The Committee resolved that his Royal Highness had made out his claim to vote at the election of Representative Peers of Ireland. , LORD SANDFORD'S CLAIM. The Committee also resolved that Lord Sandford had made out his claim to vote at the election of Representative Peers of Ireland. Sir W. Betham, Herald-at-Arms, produced a copy of his Lordship's patent from the Herald's-office, Ireland. Lord Hartland was examined by the LORD CHANCELLOR—He was nearly related to the first Lord Sandford. He died without issue. He was married to a Miss Oliver. Had two brothers—the elder a Clergyman, was married, but died without issue. The third Lord died unmarried. The present claimant was his Lordship's brother. LEIGH PEERAGE. Counsel were then culled in in this claim. The Clerk of the House read a petition from the claimant, praying their Lordships would post pone the further consideration of this claim till next Sessions, for the purpose of enabling him to pro cure further evidence. The COMMON SERGEANT then called the Rev. Charles Gowd Carlie, Assistant Minister of St. Mary's, Warwick, who produced the registry of the marriage of Sir Christopher, on the 15th of Octo ber, 1670 ; also the baptism of Thomas, their son, on the 26th of July, 1672. The Curate of the parish of Wigan produced the registry of the birth, baptism, and burial, of several of the Leigh family of Haigh, down to Roger Leigh, from whom the claimant alleges his descent, and grounds his claim. Mr. Ward, the Deputy Registrar of Chester, produeed a return from the parish of Wigan of births, baptisms, and burials, which contained an entry, on the 12th of March, 1658, of the baptism of Ellen, the daughter of Roger Leigh, of Haigh. The original regiater was not forthcoming. The Rev. Wm. Martin also produced several registers. The COMMON SERGEANT here proposed to put in Dugdale's History of Warwickshire, as evidence of the non-existence of the monument at Stoneleigh Church at the period in question. The LORD CHANCELLOR decided upon the inad missibility of such evidence. His Lordship wished to know how Mr. Adams would get over the entry of the baptism of Ellen, in 1658. Christopher Leigh was born in 1626; it was now discovered that Roger Leigh, of Haigh, had children born in 1658, only thirty-three years after the birth of Christopher Leigh; it was, therefore, impossible that Roger could be the grandson of Christopher, because if such was the case two generations must have passed away in the short space of 33 years. Unless the Learned Counsel could get over this, there was at once an end to the claimant's case. Mr. ADAMS confessed that he was taken by sur prise, and trusted their Lordships would indulge him with time, for the purpose of seeing if he could not clear up the difficulty. The . COMMON SERGEANT observed, that if his Learned Friend Mr. Adams stood alone, there would be no difficulty on his part to accede to his propo sition, but when those who instructed him had had access at any time to the document, he thought it rather too much to ask now for further delay. Mr. ADAMS said, that the industry of his Learned Friend's clients had not enabled them to discover the document till within a few days. The LORD CHANCELLOR bore testimony to the industry exercised by the client of Mr Adams ; but it was quite impossible for the House to appoint any other day for the hearing of the case this Session. The COMMON SERGEANT, if the House would allow it, would proceed to address their Lordships. He should not occupy more than half an hour, dur ing which period his Learned Friend, Mr. Adams, might look over the documents. Mr. ADAMS observed, it would be utterly impos possible for him to look over such voluminous do cuments in so short a period. Perhaps after strict looking into the documents they might turn out favourable to his clients. Lord ELDON thought the onus of the production of this document lay upon Mr. Adams' client, if he expected any benefit to be derived from it. The LORD CHANCELLOR —As the case now stood it was clearly against Mr. Adams' client. Mr. ADAMS pressed for further time. Lord ELDON observed, that he thought the Learned Counsel quite right in pursuing such a course; it was one thing to ask for time, and another for the House to allow it. Mr. Apams here asked their Lordships to allow him five minutes, which was granted, after which the Learned Counsel stated that he was unable to carry the case further. The CHAIRMAN (the Earl of Shaftesbury) then put the question to their Lordships, whether the claimant had made out his claim, which was nega , tived nem. dis. The LORD CHANCELLOR observed that Mr. Banks, of the Enrollment Office, Ireland, had writ. ten a letter, stating, that he had in his possession a document that would at once prove fatal to the claimant's claim. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. SIR LAUNCELOT SHADWELL, VICE-CHANCELLOR V. HUTCHINSON. This was an action by the Vice-Chancellor, as trustee of a Mr. White, against the occupant of the house No. 68, Wood -street, Cheapside, for building up a workshop, by which a window belonging to his neighbour was deprived of light. WILLIAMS, for the defendant, contended, on an old custom of the city of London, th a t persons might build on an old foundation, even t o t h e ex clusion of light from his neighbour's window. Lord TENTERDEN observed, that the defendant, in his opinion, could not claim the benefit of this custom in this case. The present building had been erected upon but two walls which cou ld b e con sidered as ancient foundations, whereas, he con sidered that it was necessary to have possession of an ancient foundation for the whole of the walls of the building, before a person could h ave t h e r i ght of blocking up his neighbour's Window. The defendant then submitted to a ver di ct , w i t h leave to move for a new trial. Verdict for the plaintiff, damages one shilling. Prisoi OLD BAILEY.-(THIS DAY.)
