" PARTS, OCT. 30.—The French Government have ju , t received intelligence of an attempt hav ing been made by a party of Americans, presumed to be countenanced by their Government, to effect the deliver:ince of NAPOLEON from St. Helena.— The Amer i can vessel, the Carpenter, fitted out for this purpose, has been taken. M. de Richelieu bas already communicated this intelligence to the Foreign Ministers residing at this Court. I can learn no further particulars for the present. The Zournal entitled the Fidele Ami du Roi bas been suspended this day, and its principal Editor taken into custody. This faithful friend to his Majesty. M. Robert, is one of those who followed the French Court to Ghent, and is said to have given many proofs of devotion to the legitimate cause, the most recent of which, is that of having edited arid circulated the incendiary pamphlet, which has been of late the object of so many articles in the Professedly Ministerial papers, and which has been generally •nscrilod to M. de Chateanbriand. *Nat:liter repaired this morning to the Tuileries to implore' the Royal protection in his favour. Yesterday' Parli4ment was prorogued with the usual formalities till the 2d of JAutpiry. The Commiggioners were the Loan CHANCRLLOR, Vit. COttOt 81DMOUTIF, and Lord ST. FIRLRNS.

Yesterday Sir JAMES Yeo a?ri l ved in town from b-ia station on the coast of Africa, and immediate tr on his arrival had a long interview with Lord 'UPI:VILLE.. and the other Lords of the Admiralty. Letters of a very recent date haveltien received from Gibraltar. Admiral PENROSE sailed on the 4th of October in the Albion to the eastward. • By the arrival of the Honourable' Company's ship Fairlie we have received advices from Witavi A to the mitldtt of June. The Netherlands commis sion bad et last arrived with three ships of the line, viz. the Admiral Averm,, Amsterdam, and Admiral de Ruyter, the corvette Iris, and brig SPion. The troops were in fine Condition, but obliged to remain inactive, as the order to give up the island had not been received; this, conse quendY, made the situation of the Commissioners trust unpleasant. Every . body was'-shrpri , 4ed at the disappointment, and 1111Xi01111 to know the 'Ta ttoo of it. The trade of the , island was in a bad state. There was scarce any produce left, as ',inch had been .takeu away .by the Americans. Coffee, in its first hands, was at 10 to 11 dollars Pet' picul ; wars very high, ,and its great de- P" 1 1111, at 7to 8 dollars per pienl ; nn pepper to /te The arrivals which had taken place from Etnop e had been considerable, - and their outward cargoes selling very disadvantageously, • there was scarce any freight to he had in return, and what amid be obtained was at the low rate of 151. per toll. AS the Fiddle was leaving, Government Was taking up some private ships tar &rope, which relieved the Commanders of great anxiety, *cc:mit - ri v ed by the'imeettaint y they had been under. A letter received from Zante states, that two vessels from Tunis had appeared off the Island, and bad taken several small traders. The letter particularly alludes to the expedition against Al giers :—" The terror of the English name has striven all the pirates to the higher ports of the rfeiMetrattasux, where they will continue to skulk *bow, awl greatly anuoy us."

It is with pleasure we add, that though se veral thousand persons assembled in the park anti on the adjoining bill (Garngad) there was not the least tendency to riot or disturbance ; as soon as the business was over, they quietly dispersed, and went to their respective homes. '.'here were, per haps, about 4000 assembled in the park round the hustings, for the object of the Meeting, and about as many more from curiosity on the adjacent grounds to witness the proceedings. This being the Anniversary of the . Popish Con spiracy, cornrnonly called the Gunpowder Plot, or Guy Faues day, the Park anti Tower guns will he fired on the occasion ; the Yeomen of the Guard, and his Majesty's servants at St. James's Palace, will receive their enstomary ~r atuity of wine, it being pitcher-day, and two 7barrels of strong beer will 4e given to the popilkev in front of the Admiralty, RUSSIAN According to a statistical work hi the Peters of the Academy of St. Petersburg!), the Revenues of Russia, in 1811, were 215 millions of roubles, the disbursements 274; the Marine, in 1813, con sisted of 289 vessels, bearing 4,348 guns ; the esta blished Greek religion had 26,747 Churches, be sides many monastries. There were besides in 1811, 3i millions of Catholics, 1,400,000 Lutherans, 3800 reformed, 9000 Moravian!, 5000 Men nonites, 60,000 Armenians, 3,000,000 of Ma hometans, 300,000 Votaries of the Dalai Lama, 600,000 Adorers of Feteshes, &c: The number of manufactories was in 1815. 3253. LORD MAYOR'S DAY. In consequence_ of a desire expressed by several persons that some alteration should take place in the accustomed order of procession on the above day, and it haVing been suggested that it would be highly gratifying to the numerous inhabitants of Westminster that they should enjoy the sliow, with the consent of the Lord Mayor, the follow ing arrangements have been adopted To leave Guildhall at twelve o'clock precisely, praceed io fell procession, with the men in armour, &e. to Blackfriars, thence by water to West minster-bridge, accompanied by the barges of the different Companies. The procession, on its re turn, havit , been previously mirshalled in due form iu Pa.race-yard, will proceed through Par liament-street to Charing •cross, where it will be joined by such branches of the Royal Family, Ali 'skiers of State, and other distinguished person ages, as, intend hondming the civic festival with their presence it will thence proceed through the Strand to Chancery•lane, at which place it will be joined by the Judges and great Law Offi ce's, thence through Fleet-street, Cheapsitle,&c." By this means notch of the pressure and crowding in ;he city on these occasions will in a great 1118. sure he prevented ; .and it will also sere to mark the inntsual circumstance of the Chief Magistrate being twice elected to till the Civic Chair. Her Serene llighness the Princess NARINSKI and daughter, with the Secretary to the Russian Embassy, visited Portsmouth tart bun yester-., day segnnight, attended by M. MARCH, Esq. the Russian Consul. They afterwards visited the ' Dock-yard, and inspected the steam-engine, block machinery, anti copper mills, which were set at work ; they then proceeded to Spithend, and 'went on board the Russian frigate Mercury. They appeared to be highly pleased with their visit, and the attention shewu them. In the even ing tbey departed for Bligliton. We have already stated that the Achilles, from London to New York, with 180 passengers on hoard, .bad put into Philadelphia on the '2oth of September. We are now enabled to add, that she sailed from Ireland a few months ago with, nearly 300 emigrants on board, and being 18 weeks on her passage, her provisions were nearly exhausted before she reachetther clestination_i the. consequence was, that about 100 of these unfor tunate emigrants were obliged to be put on shore at Cape May, in a most miserable plight. The remainder, as already stated, were landed in Phi ladelphia lit a distressed situation. Some of the emigrants are tepresented to have been so !educed to poverty and wretchedness that they were ac tually dying in the streets. The aversion,. says a letter, which they entertain for their native land is excessive. A person of the name of Robinson, a painter, declared, after leaving England, that were all the religious sects to be assembled to form a curse, that curse he would leave behind hint, so rooted was his hatred to his own country. A letter received from a Gentleman who resides in Devonshire, states, that his family is supplied with the best butchers' meat at 31d. per lb. and he bus the right of making choice of whatever juims he wishe s t o have. It is stated that a com. peril ion being raised at Ryde, in the Isle of Wight, butchers' meat has been reduced from . Stl. to 441, and sd. per lb. The competitors came to that town at the invitation of the inhabitants, from Newport. It appears by the Northern ,country papers, that in - many places, where the butcher markets do not approximate to the ,low prices which the graziers are obliged to take in the stock markets, the inhabitants themselves have begun to slaughter for their own consumption. On Saturday a very handsome tablet was erect.; ed in Wesiminater Abbey . 2, between the [Heim ments of Dr. SOUTH and Ur. BUSBRYi to the me mory of the late venerable Dr. VINChNT, Dean of that Church, a man equally amiable in private life tor his exemplary virtues, and respectable for his extensive learning and the attention he formly strewed to the duties of his high office. .contract for supplying the pipes for the I, W Paris ater•works has been made with the iron merchants at Cardiff and NeWport, in Wales. A brig from.the former port, with 120 tons of pipes, recently put into Southampton, on her passage to Rotten. She was conveying the first cargo; At the Middlesex Sessions yesterday. the swindler who called himself Captain Wailace, and who had defrauded so many persons at Wapping and Blackwall, and other places, was found Guilty, anti sentenced to belransported for seven years.— One William Jones received a similar .sentence for having obtained 15 shillings, under the false dire tence of being a MAYA Captain.

From a Correspondent Owing.. to the ex treme depression of the Lead Mining concern, the town and neighbourhood 01 Alston Moor are lit this time in a most deplorable At e ; some hun dreds of the Miners having been lately di , charged, and being without any employment, are in a slate of complete insubordination. They have for some time past.assembled together in large bodies every morning at the sound of a horn, :foe the pt.rpose of poaching, the neighbourhood of Alston abottroling with game, and have sallied out in all directions upon the adjoining Manors. A Game keeper was lately fired at' and wounded in attempt ing to secure one of them; and two of the keepers having reme day succeeded in tak ng a man who was out.by himself, were carrying him off, when they were pursued by the rest of the ging, and obliged to take shelter in a house which Was pre bendy surrounded by the poachers, who threaten. ed to shoot them immediately if they did not re-- lease the man ; and the muzzles of six guns were presented at them through one window ; they were therefore obliged to release their prisoner to save their own lives." Our Skipton Correspondent soy,—" About ten o'clock on Friday night last, son►e ' villain or villains fired a loaded gun or. pistol throug!► the window of st public-house at Silsden, near Skip ton, the contents of whielt lodged in the thigh of the Gamekeeper of Wu►. Bostick!, Esq. of which wound he linge►ed till Monday-forenoon and then expired ; Coroner's verdict, wilful murder. 'Just before the goo was fired, three persons, well known characters of the poaching tribe, were seen lurking about the door. They were in dread of being apprehended, and have taken this step, it is supposed, to prevent their detec►ion, or from revenge at being closely looked after. The tin.. fortunate matt has left a wife and three children to lament his melancholy fate." WHIM] A YEN, OCT. 29.—The seamen em• played in the coal trade have at length agreed to the reduced wages, and vessels are now sailing daily. We lament that those misguided tueit -should have stoml out .so long ; but, to their credit, they have not committed the least outrage during the whole time. Near 100 sail of vessels have been laid up for three months in consequence of the seamen refusing the wages. It is supposed that the late turn out of tke sailors, as it is called, at Whitehaven, has taken upwards of ten thousand pounds out of circula tion in that part of the County. CtlittOUS TRANSPOSITIONS ; or, Human erait Purposes.—ln the foll Owing odd traiiiikei ion, a person who should have been dead saved the life of one who was lint to die, and the person who was to live would have died but for the person who was to have taken the life of the living per son who was to have been dead : " Elizabeth fluldrun,a miserable woman, appre !tended for contravening sentence at banishment, awl confined in n lock-up room, on the north side of the jail, in Glasgow, on Monday afternoon at tempted to destroy herself by strangulation.

Divwo Bets..---This machine WBy employed last week iu Burnpool, Plymouth, to examine the bottom, preparatory to sinking the Eden sloop of war, with the view of wiring the dry rot ; but it was considered unsafe front its inequa lity and the heavy ground- swell which sets in with en easterly wind.
