Several journals have spoken of a young man,' Avho, they say, blew his brains out before his fa- titer's eyes.,, because he had refused Hint a sum .of money which he had demanded : this young man is not dead, as was reported, but still lives, and employs the remainder of his life, miraculously prolonged to him, in repairing the outrage con►- mittccl against God, society, and his family.

John 'Murray and Son baud the day before yesterday : they had a long time threatened it. This house has bemb known for 30 years, for its probity and solidity, through all Europe. it wens looked upon with so much confidence, that in 1796 and the follow ing years it conducted the money tiansactions of the I?,nglish and French Governments.

That at Algiers they' have mounted the guns taken from the ships upon the ramparts; and that the Algerines have a consider, able camp atTremesen, neat the aquedticts of lia bacons which is protected by a „torrent'. - • The mountain which looks upon the sea is co. yard by cenatry seats, having gardens surrounded by Walls ;. upon several points they have erected forts. It is to these country houses the Algerines 'intend retiring, it the City is bombarded. They are all' furnished with water, and the orchards which surround them are little woods, . which render them very. agreeable. The Dey - of Algiers , has not 12,000 regular sol . diers i but if war breaks out be can easily assem ble 30 or 40,000. It is thought that such a body cannot keep the field long, unless they have maga zines or provisions for war, as living upon they would soon exhaust the country which they occupy. They are ,here strongly prepossessed against the Eugljsi►, Whom they regard (perhaps unjustly) as the cause of the ill-treatment' of the Christians in Africa. • If they had presented them selves as masters, it is certain the Regencies would have liked nothing better than a solid peace ; conditions might have been prescribed to them and guarantees taken ; hitt they treated as it ‘s ere as one power With another, they submitted to cotributions•---instead of humiliating them, they increased theit . insolence.

Our paternal Go vernment exerts itself by a gradual discharge of the debts made during the Usurpation to relieve the people us much as possible ; there is thereforti the more reason to be surprised: that not a word has hitherto been said of the fulfilment of one of the most sacred duties of the State towards its old soldiers, as the military who were pensioned,be fore the French invaded the country have not re ceived to this moment either the arrears or the cont lunation of their pension.

They have another version of the Algerine preparations - , and another in-, stance of tire love of the Dry for the French, and another slap at the English. This j 3 tr u ly tire some repetitioh. Their other articles of intelli gence are rather amusing gleanings than interest ing news. We, therefore, briefly refer to them. The Journal eles Debuts quotes the dustrian Ob server, a Journal, hi answer to the Mereure Surveillant, which asks, " Why the Ern peror'ALaxANnca had not invited Louts XVIIL t o accede to the Holy ALLJANCR,” that " the King of FltditiC& Sigiled this celebrated Treaty when the Allied Monarchs were in NOS." - The openinK of the Preliminary Confe rences at Frankfort were again postponed - from the sth to the 12th August, and the Diet itself was expect ed to commence on the 19th. tt is reported at Erankfort that such proposals will be made on the part of Austria, that the sub jects of deliberation may be treated in a speedy and satisfactory manner, and it is not supposed that the concerns of Conzress still in arrear can delay the Diet. FERDINAND VII. was to return to Madrid on the 12tb of this month. Ms route was fixed by Cuenca, Mete, Socedon, Guadalaxara and Alcala, at each of which plikles his Majesty would sojourn for a blunt period. His reception by the people has been enthusiastic. Ills carriage has been drawn by the populace, and in some places troops of dancers accompanied ii $o as to give the whole journey the appearance of a festiyal. Surely, we repeat, this cannot be the unpopular Tyrant which some of our Journals devoted to the dis confented part of his subjects, fugitives from their country, represent.

The false alarm raised by our factious Prints had gone abroad th at England was on the eve of bankruptcy, which bad induced the people on the Continent to, withdraw, as much as possible, their money employed in British in vestments.
