The following 't :Own filial. a letter published in E Vehhig Paper ; but we 'Ore very Sceptical of Paris Correspondence) which deals so largely `tile marVellont Chat there it scarcely a Week pastes without its producing sothe prodigy, which, like the present, ends in nothing but smoke FARM Jui4c " I inforth yon Of tie departure of the Duke of Wel)ington and his suite, who left Yids for Lon don :this morning at five o'clock; and I coMmu nicite to you what particulars I have been able to iirticu're Concerning the pith to blow up, or ra ther set fire to; the hotel of his Grace during the fête giVen . 60 Tuesday evening, at which the . r"linger Princes 'of the Bourbon branch were prep sent. A smoke wat perceived issuing from the cellar, and remarked by one of the servants (Mr. Aston's) in waiting in the Street, and made known inunediately to the bul‘et household. A valet, formerly in the service of napoleon, was the first Who descended into the cellar; and saw that it proceeded from a lighted rag besmeared with powder, near which were a certain munber of ball cartridges, several pounds of gunpowder; and two barrels of oil. The train wss, of course, im biediately extinguished. The cartridges were ob served to be moist, probably to prevent the explo sion from being heard. His Grace, who was aware that no danger any longer existed, avoided alarm ing the party by giving publicity to this affair; and I am informed from very good authority, that be believes the intention of these miscreants was to renew the terrible scene which happened at the gala of the Prince of Schwa, tzenberg in honour of the moulage of the Archduchess with Napo leon. It is probable advantage would have been taken of the confusion, and, in the hurried retreat and press of the terrified multitude, bloody trea son would hove perpetrated, its designs. The lighted train is supposed to have been thrown into the cellar from an iron grate communicating with the Champs Elysees. The sentinels were exa mined, and from their deposition, there is reason to believe a man, disguised in female attire, was the principal instrument in this affair. The po lice is exerting its usual vigilance, but hitherto 'without success." DUKE of WELLINGTON, his GRACE'S STAFF, 4c, Yesterday the Princess CHARLOTTE and Prince Ifoorot.n prepared a grand dinner for the Duke of WELLINGTON but on account of an arrange ment of the Cabinet Ministers, which could not be dispensed with, his Grace went to dine with theta at their Cabinet dinner, at Lord CASTLE. at AG HP S The fluke of WitOANGTON'i Staff dined with the Princess Cuitittorrs and Prince Luca°Lo, at Camelford House, consisting of—.

Houton, together with Lord and Lady Keith, atud sevarat other dtstingulshed Characters. The dinner was served up in a very splendid vyle. In addition to the new silver table service, there was a most highly finished plateaux. and an elegant new desert service, with emblematical devices, appropriate to the purposes they are to be used for, from the manufactory of Messrs. RUNDELL and BRIDGB. The table t ornaments were delicately white. - After dinnerthe Duke of WELLINGTON paid his respects to the Princess and Prince. A Gentleman is arrived in town from Calcutta, irbo left about the fat of February last. He con firms the report in circulation the last few day's, of the probability of a renewal of the Nepaul war. The Nepant Government have from time to time, under's/nue frivolous pretence or other, refused the ratification of the. Treaty, and the British troops having been withdrawn on the faith of its being signed at a given time, induced the enemy to take possession of some of the strong passes. Remonstrances on the subject continued when the test accounts tame away, but it was believed they WOlllll hot be attended , with any salutary effect.--(Times.)

It is true they would not Ge so witty or amusing as others of the same etas's, but their wonderful quality of contradiction might coniiiitisate for their want of humour. At preSent we confine oursetires to a fact, which in three successive 'days has 'un dergone the following handying 1 THE ASSERTION- On Tuesday the Morning Chronicle, iii its pri vate letter from Paris, says— "'hie cause of the confinement of M. de Tillers, a man of distinguished, family and fortune, who was arrested on the period of the conspiracy of 1816, is not generally known. It appears that he some time since addressed to the Duke of Orleans a Memorial on the deplorable state of France, repre senting that the wishes of the people called his Highness to the Throne, and offering his assistance and that of his friends to carry this purpose into effect. The Duke, in order to dis- claim the ambitious views generally ascribed to him, is said to have transmitted this Memorial to, the King, entreating, however, that nu measnre of severity should be taken against its author. How far this request will he attended to, the event will itrove."—(Morninir Chronicle, Ju.10.1.) Having thus itself laid the ground-work, and advanced the falsehood, on NVednesday (yester day) the same Journal gives itself THE CONTRADICTION in these terms : " There is no foundation, we learn, for the report in a Paris Letter, in our Paper of yesterday, that the Duke of Orleans had received from M. de Thiars a memorial which his Highness hail transmitted to the King, and that this was the cause of that Gentleman's confinement. The Duke of Orleans has received neither memorial nor communication from M. de Thiars on that or any other subject. It is equally incorrect, of course, that the Duke of Orleans made any communication to the King concerning M. de Thiars or the supposed memorial."—(tlerning Chronicle, July 2.) Now, in the fair way of Newspaper manage ment, all this is pretty well, An erroneous re port is circulated, with its appropriate Party re marks, but it is discovered or known to be un tenable, and the forgery is coldly confessed, leaving the sting of its illustrative observations to serve the honest purpose of the factious. But our Chronicle to-day goes further, and out-Ilerod's Herod in its abhorrence of its own wickedness in spreading this infamous rumour against the Duke of ORLEANS. We know not what name to assign to its third Essay, perhaps we may call it THE MANCEUVRE. " Since the last year (says the same Chronicle of this Morn ing) the constitutional principles, and the frank and generous, eenduct of the Duke of Orleans have drawn upon him the hatred of the Ultra-Royalists, they accuse hint of having a party, and of entertaining ambitious views. Facts prove the contrary, but the iatrigners katow that where hittory is de fcctive ron4aucc will supply its place. These Gentlemen, sickening with the consideration enjoyed by the Duke of Orleans, and despairing oP being able to produce any true accusation against him, have had recourse to calumnies, or to calumnious accusations, and after hav ing laboured to circulate them they pretend that the Duke of Orleans ought to prevent the evil that may re sult to themselves front their own work. What have they done ? Last year they fabricated a declaration in the name of the Duke of Orleans, which they caused to be biSerted in the Newspapers, and which that Prince contented himself with disavowing. They now renew this course of lOW in trigue, in order to furnish a pretext for the perseention or condemnation of the Count de Thiars, detained in the French' poisons ; they pretend that he has sent a seditious Memoir to the Duke of Orleans. The assertion is false. The Duke of Orleans denies it. They added, that that Prime had sent the pretended Metnoir to the King, annexing to it his protestation, that he hail no intention of attacking the Throne of his Majesty. The public will see that there is still a weans of obtaining credence for a false declaration like that fabricated last year-.a declaration which, being without a motive, would have been equally absurd and ridiculous, but see the plan of these Gentlemen. If time Duke of Orleans should say clothing against the supposed act, his silence would give it authenticity; if his disavowal should be susceptible of any false interpretation, the object of the calumniatOrs would be attained. What is the best means of destroying this NW Intrigue, which has no other basis than W ife h oo d, no ether view than to create suspicions ? It is to do what has been al ready done by the Duke of Orleans, to limit himself to a pubs and simple disavowal of the article inserted." On this we have Lut one observation—lt Was the Chronicle itself which promulgated the fabrica tion aga'unt which all this indignation is expressed!!! No French Paper ever alluded to such a thing, and we believe very few English Papers copied it. The force of ridicule can go no further than to apply the Chronic/e's own castigation to its own falsehood. So tenacious are the police at Dieppe] respect ing the introduction of English newspapers into France, by the different passengers entering that port, that a seizure, it is said, is- immediately blade of every one which they observe in. the pos session of travellers. An instance lately occurred to a foreigner, who had a variety of London pa pers in his trunk. When it was examined at the bureau, the Commissary made 0-eizure of them, and notwithstanding•tht Gentleman assured hint that . the publications were favourable to the Bourbon Goverment, it was unavailing, and the Cmumissary kept possession of the whole packet. On Tuesday seven Gentlemen from the Navy Departments were ordered to Portsmouth, to be in readiness to pay the ships as SOH as their emu pletacuts are completed!. SH•TIP EAST INDIA SHIPPING.
