PARIS PAPERS. PARIS, SEPT. 1. It"was reported yesterday, that an incorrect interpretation had been given when the term 1 ' capitulation" was used with respect to the sus pension of hostilities between the French troops and those under the orders of Ballasteros. This Suspiingloti, in .fact, was merely the result of an armistice, rendered necessary by the negociations whictOad been commenced, at Cadiz.—( Pilote). 'rapt/ears that Marshal Moncey, having fruit sunimuned Generals MUMS and Llobera to submit to the Regency, has addressed himself to 144.0iti r in order to try and induce him, by his ex whine,, to accelerate the prompt submission of the : whole a Catalonia. It is said that the Spanish 'tarsal. replied, that, before he accepted any ". A24l3sltion, he would set fire to every pltice in '4l4oocince under his command. —(lbid). )toleiST.MAav, Ana. 23.—( Extract of a Private Let ssr.),-, The works before the Trocadero are carried on with peat vigour. To.morroi morning the trench will be suffici tidy advanced to enable us to open our fire. The enemy at tempted the day before yesterday, in the morning, to land three hundred . and fifty men at the head of the trench. A company of .voitigeurs rushed upon the breast-work, and forced them shamefully to retire, leaving fifteen or twenty dead or wound .ed upon the place. They now avenge themselves for the failure by keeping up a continual fire, which has killed one -man dnd wounded four or five. This has been the only re , , sult of a cannonade which they have maintained during three dam almost without ceasing. A much more important at tack is seriously meditated. The armed : chaloupes at Seville and here are ready, they will speedily form a junction with the fleet. There is a talk of landing troops, &c. &c."—(Journal des Debas. ) MADRID, Avo. 27.—A1l eyes are turned . towards Cadiz.' Every one is procuring maps of the bay; and each is occupied in carrying on his own siege. The French officers, who served to the Brat blockade, under Marshal Victor, observe that at that period the Isle of Leon was defended by a brave army of from 25 to 30,000 men, English and Portuguese, while at present the garrison does not contain more than 7 or 8,000 men, divided in their sentiments and opinions. At the former period, too, the sea was against us, that is, the English were masters of it, and watched the approaches of Cadiz with a fleet of 50 vessels of the line, and innumerable gun-boats; whereas now the sea is for us, that is, we have the ascendancy there.

We have received the Madrid Gazelle Extra ordinary of the 25th of August. It contains the following official article relative to the surrender or COrUlltla The following•Corivention has been conclud ed between Lieutenant-General Count Bottrck, Commander-in-Chief of the Troops in Galicia, and Lieutenant-General Don Francisco Novella, BAYONNE MAIL. I.lkroxgr, Au a. 28.—Though we have an extraordinary number of letters from Madrid to-day, they do not bring us any thing remarkable. The Regency has ordered that those among the persons still in prison who aro in bad health, shall be immediately put upon their trial, that their confinement easy be as short as possible. Other accounts, however, say thst all persons confined for political offences are already set at liberty. Nothing is said of the army, which is the effect of the sus. pension of arms; the last news from Cadiz since the arrival of the Mike at Port St. Mary's continues to give a favourable account of the health of the King and the Royal Family.— Thera is a report ''tif an action at Ellin, in Muicia, be tween the troops of Bessieres and those of Loch°, in which the 10/15 is said to have been pretty equal—about one hundred en each side. The are reports at Madrid of a movement of the troops Lopez Banos and Amor, who have 4,600 men between the caf pital and Telavera. They are said to have sent some parties .withha 20 miles of Madrid ; but it has been affirmed, on the other hand, that they have concluded a suspension of arms • with the Duke of Reggio, as introductory to their final sulnuis sits*. Oencral Castel dos Moe, with his troops, forms a part vE axe Constitutional 'forces, which make them amount to 4,000 infantry, andl,ooo cavalry. Several mums and priests have left Madrid to go on political missions to the Provinces. There is still a tendency to ter ' riseettation at Madrid, chiefly caused by the rabble, who are not pied with the French, because the latter constantly oppose the memos which they would willingly commit. The Royalists are in hopes that every thing will be shortly settled at Gediz .and some even say that the King of Spain and the Royal Family were to dine with the Duke of Angouleme yes wider, thaßrith, at Port St. Mary's. The French line before Cadiz is said to be concentrated between Porto Real and Port :it. Mary's General Garbo, who has the command of the en gineers at the siege of Pampeluna, left this town last night.— The King's ship Alsacienne, having been repaired, has sailed agaie to resume its station before Santana. [PRIVATE LETTER.] of Ferdinand to PARIS I SEPT. I.—The reply the communication of the Duke d'Angouletne iiae been looked for here with great anxiety. It appears that this answe r destroys alt hope of ar tenement. It was given on the 23d, the last day of the term granted by his Royal Highness, anti, it is said, is couched in very strong language. The King, who wrote it with his own hand, de clares, if we are accurately informed, t. That he has never ceased to enjoy personal tiberty until the period of the entrance of the ,French troops into Spain. 2. That the Wood which has been shed in this unjust war will recoil upon the head of Louis VI IL. and all Frenchmen. 3.

" Count BOURCK. BARCELONA, JULY 7. . - Last night Marshal Moncey arrived at Arenis de Mat with part of the garrison of Gerona and two field pieces. The same person who brings this information, and who left Figueras on Friday morning, also reports, that the French have a great number of sick in the hospitals of that town, Perelada and Castellon ; that the French General who occupies the town of Figueroa, allows nuttier* to come into the castle, and that our garrison experiences no inconvenience or privations, for the stock of Provisions had not yet been touched.—This day the commander of a battalion, two officers, and 30 soldiers, have come in here, having left the French army. They assure us that the discontent among the troops is general, for they see that the present war, which they were led to believe would terminate immediately, will be as long, as obstinate, and as bloody as the war of independence. JULY 9.--This morning the French, posted in Gracia, Sarria, and the neighbouring towns, have again appeared on the p l a i n s. From this city a heavy firing was heard , towards Molina de Rey, and at about noon a column of all arms went out, filled with enthusiasm, which soon met the enemy, and taught them that the sons of freedom possess velour. By force we took from them their position in the tower of Gerona, where they had fortified themselves, and made the children of St. Louis run off as far as the tower of Esplugas. Our artillery was most brilliantly served, and each ball and granade was sent off with its corresponding invocation of " Long live Riego," from our artillery-men. Some of them luckily fell in the aforesaid tower, and others amidst a corps of cavalry, and must have done con siderable injury. In the midst of the action, four grenadiers came over to us, who immediately turned round on the enemy, and behaved with the most extraordinary valour. An immense concourse of people witnessed the action, crying out in favour of liberty, and demanding arms to fight agaiast these slaves.— The column again entered the town singing patriotic hymns, and at all titnes prepared again to chastise these insolent guests who have come to trouble us. We had 13 wounded, and the loss of the enemy must have been great. JULY 10.—This afternoon our troops have again skirmished with the French, who besides have received a few salutes froin the walls, whiCh made them withdraw. All this morning we hare heard a heavy firing on the side of Molinas de Rey, where we know several waggons of wounded French have arrived, who reported that they had met with a heavy loss. It was also said there, that our troops had taken from the enemy one or two field pieces, and that the ac ion had been very bloody, and lasted for several hours.. To-day at noon another brilliant co low went out and fought the enemy posted in Coll Blanch and Torre de Publilla, from which they were dislodged by our brave men. The enemy's loss has 'beeil pretty great, and we have had a few wounded and two killed. Our people attacked, cry.. ing out, " Long live the Constitution!" " Long live Riego!" Our artillery wad well served. JULY 11.—At noon an enemy's column left Esplugas, con sisting of 3,000 infantry and 400 horse, advancing towaids Sarria, where they took up a position and pushed some ad vances towards this city. About five in the afternoon we had the pleasure to see a successful fire opened upon them from the redoubt of the Constitution, which killed some of their c a valry and infantry. We had a column out in the direction of Sans, on the main road, which, turning round, and our cavalry com ing up with that of the enemy, which was superior in number, they charged in the most daring manner,,and put them to flight . This morning we also took from them two waggons laden with wine and flour, which were brought into town. JULY 12.—T0-day the enemy's positions are at Esplugas, Pedralves, Sarria, Oracia, San Andres, S. Adria, and the ford of Pesos. Our divisions occupy the heights of Bollirana, to the right and left, but without withdrawing an inch. Molina* de Rey is free, and the many wounded the French had there have been conveyed to St. Cugat. A French officer has thi s day been taken and brought in here. THE EX-EMPEROR ITUItBIDE. A letter from Vera Cruz of the 10th of July describes .the terms of a very curious contract en tered into bet ween the new Mexican Government and the captain and consignees of the British ship Rawlins, for the transportation or deporta tion of the ex,,Emperor iturbide to Leghorn. The conditions imposed upon the captain, with a view to the directness and reality of the voyage to Leghorn, are of .the; strictest kind. • Under no pretext was he to deviate from the regular, nautical route, — 46 not from .the . persuasive insinuations of any person or persons on bourd.'! was to touch at no port t/n. his way, and especially not, a Spanish • port, unless from inevitable necessity. And In ease of such necessity, and of I turbide's landing at any other than the destined port, he was to be allow ed to take on shore only what should appear in dispen-able for his use while there. lis the event of his falling sick, when thus landed, the first physicians of the place were to be assembled, to pronounce upon his real situation ; and if they should signify the probability of his sufficient re covery in a short time, the captain bound himself to wait for hitn as long as 15 or '2O days. It appears to have been suspected by the Government, that Ittirbide would attempt to get to some other country than Italy; and every pracaution was there fore taken to prevent the Captain of the vessel from giving any facility to the purpose. Itur bide's (aridly and suite, who embarked, amounted to twenty-eight persons, Including eight children of his own. The table linen and service, uten sils and stores laid in, were rich and abundant. The sum taken ill specie is specified in the gene ral inventory at 15,550 dollars. The following memorandum of the Government Commissioner is attached to the inventory : " The expences incurred for Don Augustine Iturbide since he was separated from the Government, and placed in the custody of Don :Nicholas Bravo and his troops until the period of his embarkation, including the first payment of the ' 25,000 dollars, the =laity which the Government had fixed for him, provided he exactly comply with its orders as to his place of residence, amount altogether to the sum of'one hurt ' dred and twenty thousand dollars.—June 7, 1823." Few deposed sovereigns have been treated with more kindness and munificence. A letter from Cadiz of the Bth ult. describes an interesting scene which took place in the har bour a few days before, and which became doubly so from the indications it called forth of the state of public feeling within the city. A small Spanish schooner, laden with provisions, standing into the bay, was observed and given chase t o , by o ne of the ships of the French squadron. Both were under full press of sail, but the scho oner , by dint of superior sailing, kept a-head until s h e ra n ashore, and became immov able. Th e wa ll s o f Cadiz were covered with people, anxious witnesses of the whole proceed ing. The French ship kept up a contin u a l fire on the scho oner w hile in that position, but, owing to the shall owness of the water, was not able to approach near enoug h to do effectual execution. Some boats were therefore hoisted out and man ned with French sailors for the purpose of board ing: This manoeuvre having been observed, an order was issued to the Spa nish sailors to embark in some gu n -b oats then lying at anchor, and ad vance to m ee t the appro ac h o f e nemy, which they obeyed promptly, an d exec uted in a superior style of seamanship. Th e French boats, p erceivin g the this new enemy, were afraid to hazard the encounter, and retired under the pro tection of th e i r vessel ; the in habitants o n the walls of C a di z , mean while, rending the air with their acclamations at the fortunate escape of the schooner. Mr. ELLISTON has engaged a Mr. ARCHER, of the Birmingtimm Theatre, to perform at Drury lane. Ilis forte is aaid to be itr characters of the stern-line. LITERA.RY NOTICt.

The following interesting information relative to the practice of burning females on the funeral piles of their husbands, is extracted from the Papers lately laid before the House of Com mons :- From the abstract of the reports teceived from the judicial authorities in the several zillahs, it appears that the practice of widows immolating themselves on the funeral piles of their husbands, prevails generally throughout the northern division, particularly in the zillahs of Masulipatam and Ganjam ; that it exists in a less degree throughout the districts allotted to the centre division, with the exception of the zillah of Denary, in which it may be said to be unknown ; that in the southern . division it is almost entirely confined to Tanjore; and that in the western division it is only to be met with in a single talook in Canara. The following is the draft of instructions proposed to be issued to the several Magistrates, with a view to prevent the practice of widows burning themselves in cases not permitted by the Hindoo Law : It being a fundamental principle of the British Government to allow the most complete toleration in matters of religion to all classes of its native subjects, whilst, at the same time, justice and humanity forbid that a practice attended with the destruc tion of human life, and often productive of calamitous conse quences to the children of the deceased, should be permitted beyond the extent of the rules prescribed for it in the 11 indoo law. You are hereby desired to furnish each of the Tehsildars or other officers vested with the powers of District Police offi cer, under your authority, with copies under your official seal and signature, of the several undermentioned provisions of the Ilindoo law, as well as of the annexed instructions, and to en force a strict observance of the same. As the practice of widows burning themselves with the ho dies of their creceased husbands, is, generally speaking, re cognized by the doctrines of the Hindoo religion, it is the ob ject of the Government, according to the principle of religious toleration already noticed, to allow the practice in those cases in which it is countenanced by their religion, and to prevent it in others, in which it is by the same authority prohibited. It will therefore he proper that you should explain carefully, on all suitable occasions, to persons of the Hindoo persuasion, that nothing is farther from the intention of Government than to in fringe any established tenet of their religion, and that its only object is to restrain the use of acts and practices not less repug nant to the doctrines of their own persuasion than revolting to the dictates of humanity. The following are the provisions of the Hindoo Law regard ing the practice of widows burning themselves : Every woman of the four casts is permitted to burn herself with the body of her husband, provided she has not a child under three years of age, nor is pregnant, nor in a state of uncleanness, nor under the age of puberty : in any of which cases, with the exception hereunder specified, she is not allow ed to burn herself with her husband's body. But a woman who has infant children, and can procure ano ther person to undertake the charge of bringing them up, is permitted to burn. It is contrary to law to cause any woman to burn herself against her wish, by administering drugs to stupify or intoxi cate her, or by any other means. A woman may not ascend the pile of her deceased husband for 20 nights after bearing a son, and for a mouth after bearing a daughter. When women burn themselves they pronounce the sun kulpt and peform other prescribed ceremonies previously to burning If any woman declare her intention of burning, and after wards recede from her intention, without baying pronounced the sunkulp and performed the other ceremonies,shi: is not en joined by the chaster to undergo any (prayaschit) or penance, neither is there any thing contained in the law prohibiting her relations front' associating with her. But if u woman after pronouncing the sunkulp and perform ihg other ceremonies should not have courage to proceed to the funeral pile, she may 'recover her purity by undergoing a severe penance, and her relations may then associate with her. The wife of a Brahmin is positively prohibited by the shas ter from burning on any funeral pile excepting that of her husband. The rite of annomarana, or burning without the body of the deceased, may be performed by all such women of the other casts as are devoted to their lords, and absent from them at the time of their death, or such as are in the first and second days of menstruation ; the disqualifying cause being here removed in a short interval. Women under other circumstances are not permitted to perform the rite of anootnarana. A woman who, being absent from her husband at the time of his death, dues not. perform the rite of anooniarana imme diately on becoming acquainted with that event, cannot be con sidered a " partibrata" or devoted to her lord, and is not at liberty to burn herself at any subsequent period. A woman who, being present at the time of her husband's death, and unrestrained by legal impediment, omits the act of suhanuirana (burning with the body of the deceased), cannot be considered a partibrata, or devoted to her Lord, and is nut at liberty to burn herself at any subsequent period. The proposed Directions to be issued by the Magistrates to the District Police Officers, contain the following passa' , e : " You are hereby enjoined to use the otmott care, and make every effort to prevent the ceremony of burning from taking place in any case in which it is not permitted by the Ilindoo law ; and for that 'purpose will ascertain from the woman who is to be burnt, whether she has given her assent, and the other par ticulara above-mentioned relative to her age, &c. In the event of the female who is going to be burnt being less than 16 years of age, or there being signs of her pregnancy, or on her declaring herself to be in that situation, or should the people be preparing to bum her after having intoxicated her, without her assent or against her will, it will be your duty to prevent the ceremony from taking place, and to explain to the people, that in thu event of their persisting, they w ill i n volve themselves in a crime, anti become subject to p u ni s hment. As a woman hav ing a child under three years of age is not permitted to burn herself with the body of the deceased husband, unless some persons will undertake to provid e a suitable maintenance for the child ; you will be careful whenever a person undertakes to do thia, to see that a written engagement, in duplicate, on stamp paper, and according to the following form, is entered into and duly attested, and, leaving one copy in the possession of the child's nearest of kin, or other p r oper person on the spot, will transmit the other copy, with your report on the case, to the magistrate." • . * NO, 0 ..... -.: ‘1'112 1j,,,/- ' C I C* .a. .=', , \ MASONIC NOTICES FOR NEXT WEER• ENGLAND.
