This Edict . contains also regulations for the approaching re-nrgailiza tint' of the college, in which a Dew prObiSOr and a new censor will be appointed. Yesterday the Court of Correctional Police was bccopied by the case of the Ahb Vinson, charged with being the author of a pamphlet eistided The Concordat explained to the King, and which has beeOdentinneed as Containing matter calculated to alarm the security and consciences of the pur chasers of national property. They-write from Gibraltar, July 31, " The Si cilian frigate, La Christine, after having taken board 400,000 Spanish piasters, set sail the 25th instant- fur Algiers.

FRENCH PAPERS, ItEji:IVED Tills MORNING, Auo, 26.-t--Yestei:darat two o'clock the received the congratulations of the Ambas iiador4 and Foreign Ministers y the Ambassador - of speaking inAlta name of the Diplomatic 4:orps. The Duke of Wellington, and a consiu fderable number of strangers of distinction ) jiiined the Ambassadors to make their court to the King. They write frontßetijel, that the Russian troops garrisoned in the department of Ardennes offered to assist gratuitously with their waggons and .horscs at the harvest, which is 'very rich in those parts.

The Pirates arc more numerous than ever, an, more insolent from success. Several private persons have obtained permis sion to fit out ves s els for a cruise. We ate assured that Sardinia has experiencei new outrages ;, that the Barbarians landed on the coast, took away men and women, and burned the houses. Offerings continue to be made to out Lady o Loretta for the success of the Expedition stgainsl the Pirates. , A Turkish ship performing quarantine in our port, coming from Constantinople, assures tts, that it is the intention of the Sublime Porte to reduce the Pirates by destroying the whole of their fleetb . and keeping considerable forces craisir* in the Mediterranean. As to the rest, the best, disposi thins exist between the Divan and other powers, whence we may judge of the consideration the foreign Ambassadors experience, and especially the Marquis de Rivicre Anthassadhe of F ra n c e. MADRID, Aug. 12.—His Majesty will arrive to•day at this capital. We are assured positively by .04vires hotu Brazil, that the ctepartnre of the Princesses for Spain is fixed at the end of July, immediately after the coronation of their father the new King of Portugal.

Otit of this SUM the King will have 6 , 1,000 crowns, 'the Prince Royal 32,000, aMl.Prince . Oscar 1.6,040.' During the time of the stay of tin: Prince Royal in Norway, ell his discourse: in public were very flattering for the Norwegians, and particularly for the Representatives of the People. It was re ' marked that, during his discourse at the Diet, be made use of the term Scandinavian Peninsula, the ancient denomination, which also included Den'-. mark. The &dine ChriStie, President of the Diet, employed in his answer the expression Northern Peninsula. Prince . Oscar has been ap pointed Vicerity of Norway, and it is thought that he will soon return to this kingdom in that quality., --Whilst Norway was united , to Denmark the , expences of the first of these kingdoms amounted to only 900,000 crowns, but at present they are 1,500,000 crowns. An_ Ordonnance has appeared .at Christiana, containing modifications and dispositiona relative to the armed force of the kingdoM of Norway.

' The Paris Papers of Monday are nearly filled with accounts of the nte on the preceding day, which seems to have been observed with rejoicings which look as like heartfelt and universal as k was possible for France to exhibit. The King and Royal Family are represented as idolized— and were it only that parents have no longer to look with dread to the horrid annual sacrifice of the Conscription, which like, the Minotaur devoured their children, there is indeed cause for a festival in France. On the present occasion, the joyous Parisians gave themselves tip tint eservedly to every species of mirth and revelry. The fall of stocks, the war contributions, the allied victories were all forgotten, or if remem bered, they were remembered only to add a zest to the gaiety of the moment.. Fireworks, Manilla slow, loyal inscriptions, the inauguration of busts of the King, ascents in balloons, every thing that was stirring and brilliant rendered the 25th a day of memory. Among the inscriptions were several that must have been peculiarly gratifying. On a Hotel occupied by many English persons of the highest rank in Paris, was, Gotl siwt the King mad his Family." Ou a Temple appeared, Dieu, conserve les :fours et garde 14 courontur Du prince g4zulreux qui cvnsolo at pardonnr.

Anti on another— o cid ! entends lesyreux qui s'4ll•cent vets toi, Etennise les jours de Louis mare ltoi. Such were the effusions of Parisian Loyalty. The Faris Papers state that good order was not interrupted for a moment during the Fate. How does this square with the private letter which n e copied from a Morning Paper of yesterday? There arc further uceouuttfront the Mediterra nean in the Pari3 Journals-, but the recent con tradietion.of their former stories from Gibraltar teaches us, to attach little impottauee to them. The PRINCII IitiGUNT MS 90 Mach recovered yesterday as to be able to ride out iu his carriage between three and four o'clock. Yesterday, at half-past two o'clock,. a Cabinet Council' Was held *a the Foreign Office, which did not break tip till past five. The .Members of the Cabinet afterwards dined with Mr. CA,ritIING. On Tuesday evening Mr. 'fret`, the Messen ger, wilt, sent off with dispatches to Frankfort. Letters were yesterday: morning received in town front New York, via Dublin, to the 4 24th ult. They state that. several meetings had been held by the Directors of the Bank in that city, and, after warm' discussions, it was carried,. by a majority, of only two, in favour of resuming pay- Merits in specie ; but on account of the smolt ma jority it would most probably' not be carried into 'effect till January or February 'next. Tile sub scriptions for she grand National Bank were go ing on favourably, Had dollars were at a premium of .) to 7 per cent. Exchange on England had !alien from GI per cent. prem. t 0,31 and 4. The city goods man at New York had been obliged to give way, ,and one old and respectable house has frilled 'in consequence of the large importation, of foreign goods which theyhad made, anti for which they could find no vent ; but - it has a real estate tufficient to rover all,demands. According to the statement of travellers recently rr ved at Hamburgh from Switzerland,. the people of that Country are in general greatly discontent. ed with its oligarchical form of government. If these accounts are true, they pine for a reunion with Germany. The Swiss newspapers all9de to politlcs with much caution, as they ate all visited with more rigid moon than any to be found in Franca.—( Times.) The letters from Gibraltar of the 4th amd sth inst. making no mention of the reported bombard ment of the Americans, there is reason to conclude' that the rumours on that subject are unfounded, and that whatever is to be dune reingia3 tor us 41 do. It titRA D NOE . We insert below a letter from Sir Gum& -)1ORL to Mr. WYATT, on the subject of a propo sition made to that Gentleman on the part of the Duke of WEiLINGTON, for the purchase of his Estate. Sir GERARD, for the reasons therein as• signed, refuses the offer, which, according td report, amounted to no less a sum than sill hundred thousand pounds. The publication of thd letter 'will certainly do away the " sordid notions afloat," and place this affair in its true light, which is extremely honourable to the Family affection , and well-founded Family Pride,of the writer'. The it/flowing introductory envelope we also insert, not only as feeling the compliment paid t 0 THE SUN, but as explanatory of the matter Of hand : "TO THE EDITOR Or TIIE SUN.
